Now we can see there is redundant goto for SSD case. In these two places,
we can just let the code walk through to the correct tag instead of
explicitly jump to it.
Let's remove them for better readability.

The code shows if this is ssd, it will jump to specific tag and skip the
following code for non-ssd.
Let's use "else if" to explicitly show the mutually exclusion for
ssd/non-ssd to reduce ambiguity.

scan_swap_map_slots() is used to iterate swap_map[] array for an
available swap entry. While after several optimizations, e.g. for ssd
case, the logic of this function is a little not easy to catch.
This patchset tries to clean up the logic a little:
* shows the ssd/non-ssd case is handled mutually exclusively
* remove some unnecessary goto for ssd case
This patch (of 3):
When si->cluster_nr is zero, function would reach done and return. The
increased offset would not be used any more. This means we can move the
offset increment into the if clause.
This brings a further code cleanup possibility.

In unuse_pte_range() we blindly swap-in pages without checking if the
swap entry is already present in the swap cache.
By doing this, the hit/miss ratio used by the swap readahead heuristic
is not properly updated and this leads to non-optimal performance during
swapoff.
Tracing the distribution of the readahead size returned by the swap
readahead heuristic during swapoff shows that a small readahead size is
used most of the time as if we had only misses (this happens both with
cluster and vma readahead), for example:
r::swapin_nr_pages(unsigned long offset):unsigned long:$retval
COUNT EVENT
36948 $retval = 8
44151 $retval = 4
49290 $retval = 1
527771 $retval = 2
Checking if the swap entry is present in the swap cache, instead, allows
to properly update the readahead statistics and the heuristic behaves in a
better way during swapoff, selecting a bigger readahead size:
r::swapin_nr_pages(unsigned long offset):unsigned long:$retval
COUNT EVENT
1618 $retval = 1
4960 $retval = 2
41315 $retval = 4
103521 $retval = 8
In terms of swapoff performance the result is the following:
Testing environment
===================
- Host:
CPU: 1.8GHz Intel Core i7-8565U (quad-core, 8MB cache)
HDD: PC401 NVMe SK hynix 512GB
MEM: 16GB
- Guest (kvm):
8GB of RAM
virtio block driver
16GB swap file on ext4 (/swapfile)
Test case
=========
- allocate 85% of memory
- `systemctl hibernate` to force all the pages to be swapped-out to the
swap file
- resume the system
- measure the time that swapoff takes to complete:
# /usr/bin/time swapoff /swapfile
Result (swapoff time)
======
5.6 vanilla 5.6 w/ this patch
----------- -----------------
cluster-readahead 22.09s 12.19s
vma-readahead 18.20s 15.33s
Conclusion
==========
The specific use case this patch is addressing is to improve swapoff
performance in cloud environments when a VM has been hibernated, resumed
and all the memory needs to be forced back to RAM by disabling swap.
This change allows to better exploits the advantages of the readahead
heuristic during swapoff and this improvement allows to to speed up the
resume process of such VMs.

After an NFS page has been written it is considered "unstable" until a
COMMIT request succeeds. If the COMMIT fails, the page will be
re-written.
These "unstable" pages are currently accounted as "reclaimable", either
in WB_RECLAIMABLE, or in NR_UNSTABLE_NFS which is included in a
'reclaimable' count. This might have made sense when sending the COMMIT
required a separate action by the VFS/MM (e.g. releasepage() used to
send a COMMIT). However now that all writes generated by ->writepages()
will automatically be followed by a COMMIT (since commit 919e3bd9a875
("NFS: Ensure we commit after writeback is complete")) it makes more
sense to treat them as writeback pages.
So this patch removes NR_UNSTABLE_NFS and accounts unstable pages in
NR_WRITEBACK and WB_WRITEBACK.
A particular effect of this change is that when
wb_check_background_flush() calls wb_over_bg_threshold(), the latter
will report 'true' a lot less often as the 'unstable' pages are no
longer considered 'dirty' (as there is nothing that writeback can do
about them anyway).
Currently wb_check_background_flush() will trigger writeback to NFS even
when there are relatively few dirty pages (if there are lots of unstable
pages), this can result in small writes going to the server (10s of
Kilobytes rather than a Megabyte) which hurts throughput. With this
patch, there are fewer writes which are each larger on average.
Where the NR_UNSTABLE_NFS count was included in statistics
virtual-files, the entry is retained, but the value is hard-coded as
zero. static trace points and warning printks which mentioned this
counter no longer report it.

PF_LESS_THROTTLE exists for loop-back nfsd (and a similar need in the
loop block driver and callers of prctl(PR_SET_IO_FLUSHER)), where a
daemon needs to write to one bdi (the final bdi) in order to free up
writes queued to another bdi (the client bdi).
The daemon sets PF_LESS_THROTTLE and gets a larger allowance of dirty
pages, so that it can still dirty pages after other processses have been
throttled. The purpose of this is to avoid deadlock that happen when
the PF_LESS_THROTTLE process must write for any dirty pages to be freed,
but it is being thottled and cannot write.
This approach was designed when all threads were blocked equally,
independently on which device they were writing to, or how fast it was.
Since that time the writeback algorithm has changed substantially with
different threads getting different allowances based on non-trivial
heuristics. This means the simple "add 25%" heuristic is no longer
reliable.
The important issue is not that the daemon needs a *larger* dirty page
allowance, but that it needs a *private* dirty page allowance, so that
dirty pages for the "client" bdi that it is helping to clear (the bdi
for an NFS filesystem or loop block device etc) do not affect the
throttling of the daemon writing to the "final" bdi.
This patch changes the heuristic so that the task is not throttled when
the bdi it is writing to has a dirty page count below below (or equal
to) the free-run threshold for that bdi. This ensures it will always be
able to have some pages in flight, and so will not deadlock.
In a steady-state, it is expected that PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE tasks might
still be throttled by global threshold, but that is acceptable as it is
only the deadlock state that is interesting for this flag.
This approach of "only throttle when target bdi is busy" is consistent
with the other use of PF_LESS_THROTTLE in current_may_throttle(), were
it causes attention to be focussed only on the target bdi.
So this patch
- renames PF_LESS_THROTTLE to PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE,
- removes the 25% bonus that that flag gives, and
- If PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE is set, don't delay at all unless the
global and the local free-run thresholds are exceeded.
Note that previously realtime threads were treated the same as
PF_LESS_THROTTLE threads. This patch does *not* change the behvaiour
for real-time threads, so it is now different from the behaviour of nfsd
and loop tasks. I don't know what is wanted for realtime.

This replaces ->readpages with a saner interface:
- Return void instead of an ignored error code.
- Page cache is already populated with locked pages when ->readahead
is called.
- New arguments can be passed to the implementation without changing
all the filesystems that use a common helper function like
mpage_readahead().

When populating the page cache for readahead, mappings that use
->readpages must populate the page cache themselves as the pages are
passed on a linked list which would normally be used for the page
cache's LRU. For mappings that use ->readpage or the upcoming
->readahead method, we can put the pages into the page cache as soon as
they're allocated, which solves a race between readahead and direct IO.
It also lets us remove the gfp argument from read_pages().
Use the new readahead_page() API to implement the repeated calls to
->readpage(), just like most filesystems will.

The word 'offset' is used ambiguously to mean 'byte offset within a
page', 'byte offset from the start of the file' and 'page offset from
the start of the file'.
Use 'index' to mean 'page offset from the start of the file' throughout
the readahead code.
[ We should probably rename the 'pgoff_t' type to 'pgidx_t' too - Linus ]

ondemand_readahead has two callers, neither of which use the return
value. That means that both ra_submit and __do_page_cache_readahead()
can return void, and we don't need to worry that a present page in the
readahead window causes us to return a smaller nr_pages than we ought to
have.
Similarly, no caller uses the return value from
force_page_cache_readahead().

Patch series "Change readahead API", v11.
This series adds a readahead address_space operation to replace the
readpages operation. The key difference is that pages are added to the
page cache as they are allocated (and then looked up by the filesystem)
instead of passing them on a list to the readpages operation and having
the filesystem add them to the page cache. It's a net reduction in code
for each implementation, more efficient than walking a list, and solves
the direct-write vs buffered-read problem reported by yu kuai at
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200116063601.39201-1-yukuai3@huawei.com
The only unconverted filesystems are those which use fscache. Their
conversion is pending Dave Howells' rewrite which will make the
conversion substantially easier. This should be completed by the end of
the year.
I want to thank the reviewers/testers; Dave Chinner, John Hubbard, Eric
Biggers, Johannes Thumshirn, Dave Sterba, Zi Yan, Christoph Hellwig and
Miklos Szeredi have done a marvellous job of providing constructive
criticism.
These patches pass an xfstests run on ext4, xfs & btrfs with no
regressions that I can tell (some of the tests seem a little flaky
before and remain flaky afterwards).
This patch (of 25):
The readahead code is part of the page cache so should be found in the
pagemap.h file. force_page_cache_readahead is only used within mm, so
move it to mm/internal.h instead. Remove the parameter names where they
add no value, and rename the ones which were actively misleading.

Besides the underlying issue with page->mapping containing a bogus value
for some reason, we can see that __dump_page() crashed by trying to read
the pointer at mapping->host, turning a recoverable warning into full
Oops.
It can be expected that when page is reported as bad state for some
reason, the pointers there should not be trusted blindly.
So this patch treats all data in __dump_page() that depends on
page->mapping as lava, using probe_kernel_read_strict(). Ideally this
would include the dentry->d_parent recursively, but that would mean
changing printk handler for %pd. Chances of reaching the dentry
printing part with an initially bogus mapping pointer should be rather
low, though.
Also prefix printing mapping->a_ops with a description of what is being
printed. In case the value is bogus, %ps will print raw value instead
of the symbol name and then it's not obvious at all that it's printing
a_ops.

There is no need to copy SLUB_STATS items from root memcg cache to new
memcg cache copies. Doing so could result in stack overruns because the
store function only accepts 0 to clear the stat and returns an error for
everything else while the show method would print out the whole stat.
Then, the mismatch of the lengths returns from show and store methods
happens in memcg_propagate_slab_attrs():
else if (root_cache->max_attr_size < ARRAY_SIZE(mbuf))
buf = mbuf;
max_attr_size is only 2 from slab_attr_store(), then, it uses mbuf[64]
in show_stat() later where a bounch of sprintf() would overrun the stack
variable. Fix it by always allocating a page of buffer to be used in
show_stat() if SLUB_STATS=y which should only be used for debug purpose.

list_slab_objects() is called when a slab is destroyed and there are
objects still left to list the objects in the syslog. This is a pretty
rare event.
And there it seems we take the list_lock and call kmalloc while holding

I came across some unnecessary uevents once again which reminded me
this. The patch seems to be lost in the leaves of the original
discussion [1], so resending.

Kmem caches are internal kernel structures so it is strange that
userspace notifiers would be needed. And I am not aware of any use of
these notifiers. These notifiers may just exist because in the initial
slub release the sysfs code was copied from another subsystem.

The slub_debug is able to fix the corrupted slab freelist/page.
However, alloc_debug_processing() only checks the validity of current
and next freepointer during allocation path. As a result, once some
objects have their freepointers corrupted, deactivate_slab() may lead to
page fault.
Below is from a test kernel module when 'slub_debug=PUF,kmalloc-128
slub_nomerge'. The test kernel corrupts the freepointer of one free
object on purpose. Unfortunately, deactivate_slab() does not detect it
when iterating the freechain.

We have seen a "usercopy: Kernel memory overwrite attempt detected to
SLUB object 'dma-kmalloc-1 k' (offset 0, size 11)!" error on s390x, as
IUCV uses kmalloc() with __GFP_DMA because of memory address
restrictions. The issue has been discussed [2] and it has been noted
that if all the kmalloc caches are marked as usercopy, there's little
reason not to mark dma-kmalloc caches too. The 'dma' part merely means
that __GFP_DMA is used to restrict memory address range.
As Jann Horn put it [3]:
"I think dma-kmalloc slabs should be handled the same way as normal
kmalloc slabs. When a dma-kmalloc allocation is freshly created, it is
just normal kernel memory - even if it might later be used for DMA -,
and it should be perfectly fine to copy_from_user() into such
allocations at that point, and to copy_to_user() out of them at the
end. If you look at the places where such allocations are created, you
can see things like kmemdup(), memcpy() and so on - all normal
operations that shouldn't conceptually be different from usercopy in
any relevant way."
Thus this patch marks the dma-kmalloc-* caches as usercopy.

Doing a "get_user_pages()" on a copy-on-write page for reading can be
ambiguous: the page can be COW'ed at any time afterwards, and the
direction of a COW event isn't defined.
Yes, whoever writes to it will generally do the COW, but if the thread
that did the get_user_pages() unmapped the page before the write (and
that could happen due to memory pressure in addition to any outright
action), the writer could also just take over the old page instead.
End result: the get_user_pages() call might result in a page pointer
that is no longer associated with the original VM, and is associated
with - and controlled by - another VM having taken it over instead.
So when doing a get_user_pages() on a COW mapping, the only really safe
thing to do would be to break the COW when getting the page, even when
only getting it for reading.
At the same time, some users simply don't even care.
For example, the perf code wants to look up the page not because it
cares about the page, but because the code simply wants to look up the
physical address of the access for informational purposes, and doesn't
really care about races when a page might be unmapped and remapped
elsewhere.
This adds logic to force a COW event by setting FOLL_WRITE on any
copy-on-write mapping when FOLL_GET (or FOLL_PIN) is used to get a page
pointer as a result.
The current semantics end up being:
- __get_user_pages_fast(): no change. If you don't ask for a write,
you won't break COW. You'd better know what you're doing.
- get_user_pages_fast(): the fast-case "look it up in the page tables
without anything getting mmap_sem" now refuses to follow a read-only
page, since it might need COW breaking. Which happens in the slow
path - the fast path doesn't know if the memory might be COW or not.
- get_user_pages() (including the slow-path fallback for gup_fast()):
for a COW mapping, turn on FOLL_WRITE for FOLL_GET/FOLL_PIN, with
very similar semantics to FOLL_FORCE.
If it turns out that we want finer granularity (ie "only break COW when
it might actually matter" - things like the zero page are special and
don't need to be broken) we might need to push these semantics deeper
into the lookup fault path. So if people care enough, it's possible
that we might end up adding a new internal FOLL_BREAK_COW flag to go
with the internal FOLL_COW flag we already have for tracking "I had a
COW".
Alternatively, if it turns out that different callers might want to
explicitly control the forced COW break behavior, we might even want to
make such a flag visible to the users of get_user_pages() instead of
using the above default semantics.
But for now, this is mostly commentary on the issue (this commit message
being a lot bigger than the patch, and that patch in turn is almost all
comments), with that minimal "enable COW breaking early" logic using the
existing FOLL_WRITE behavior.
[ It might be worth noting that we've always had this ambiguity, and it
could arguably be seen as a user-space issue.
You only get private COW mappings that could break either way in
situations where user space is doing cooperative things (ie fork()
before an execve() etc), but it _is_ surprising and very subtle, and
fork() is supposed to give you independent address spaces.
So let's treat this as a kernel issue and make the semantics of
get_user_pages() easier to understand. Note that obviously a true
shared mapping will still get a page that can change under us, so this
does _not_ mean that get_user_pages() somehow returns any "stable"
page ]

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"A sizeable pile of arm64 updates for 5.8.
Summary below, but the big two features are support for Branch Target
Identification and Clang's Shadow Call stack. The latter is currently
arm64-only, but the high-level parts are all in core code so it could
easily be adopted by other architectures pending toolchain support
Branch Target Identification (BTI):
- Support for ARMv8.5-BTI in both user- and kernel-space. This allows
branch targets to limit the types of branch from which they can be
called and additionally prevents branching to arbitrary code,
although kernel support requires a very recent toolchain.
- Function annotation via SYM_FUNC_START() so that assembly functions
are wrapped with the relevant "landing pad" instructions.
- BPF and vDSO updates to use the new instructions.
- Addition of a new HWCAP and exposure of BTI capability to userspace
via ID register emulation, along with ELF loader support for the
BTI feature in .note.gnu.property.
- Non-critical fixes to CFI unwind annotations in the sigreturn
trampoline.
Shadow Call Stack (SCS):
- Support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack feature, which reserves
platform register x18 to point at a separate stack for each task
that holds only return addresses. This protects function return
control flow from buffer overruns on the main stack.
- Save/restore of x18 across problematic boundaries (user-mode,
hypervisor, EFI, suspend, etc).
- Core support for SCS, should other architectures want to use it
too.
- SCS overflow checking on context-switch as part of the existing
stack limit check if CONFIG_SCHED_STACK_END_CHECK=y.
CPU feature detection:
- Removed numerous "SANITY CHECK" errors when running on a system
with mismatched AArch32 support at EL1. This is primarily a concern
for KVM, which disabled support for 32-bit guests on such a system.
- Addition of new ID registers and fields as the architecture has
been extended.
Perf and PMU drivers:
- Minor fixes and cleanups to system PMU drivers.
Hardware errata:
- Unify KVM workarounds for VHE and nVHE configurations.
- Sort vendor errata entries in Kconfig.
Secure Monitor Call Calling Convention (SMCCC):
- Update to the latest specification from Arm (v1.2).
- Allow PSCI code to query the SMCCC version.
Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI):
- Unexport a bunch of unused symbols.
- Minor fixes to handling of firmware data.
Pointer authentication:
- Add support for dumping the kernel PAC mask in vmcoreinfo so that
the stack can be unwound by tools such as kdump.
- Simplification of key initialisation during CPU bringup.
BPF backend:
- Improve immediate generation for logical and add/sub instructions.
vDSO:
- Minor fixes to the linker flags for consistency with other
architectures and support for LLVM's unwinder.
- Clean up logic to initialise and map the vDSO into userspace.
ACPI:
- Work around for an ambiguity in the IORT specification relating to
the "num_ids" field.
- Support _DMA method for all named components rather than only PCIe
root complexes.
- Minor other IORT-related fixes.
Miscellaneous:
- Initialise debug traps early for KGDB and fix KDB cacheflushing
deadlock.
- Minor tweaks to early boot state (documentation update, set
TEXT_OFFSET to 0x0, increase alignment of PE/COFF sections).
- Refactoring and cleanup"

The various struct pagevec per CPU variables are protected by disabling
either preemption or interrupts across the critical sections. Inside
these sections spinlocks have to be acquired.
These spinlocks are regular spinlock_t types which are converted to
"sleeping" spinlocks on PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels. Obviously sleeping
locks cannot be acquired in preemption or interrupt disabled sections.
local locks provide a trivial way to substitute preempt and interrupt
disable instances. On a non PREEMPT_RT enabled kernel local_lock() maps
to preempt_disable() and local_lock_irq() to local_irq_disable().
Create lru_rotate_pvecs containing the pagevec and the locallock.
Create lru_pvecs containing the remaining pagevecs and the locallock.
Add lru_add_drain_cpu_zone() which is used from compact_zone() to avoid
exporting the pvec structure.
Change the relevant call sites to acquire these locks instead of using
preempt_disable() / get_cpu() / get_cpu_var() and local_irq_disable() /
local_irq_save().
There is neither a functional change nor a change in the generated
binary code for non PREEMPT_RT enabled non-debug kernels.
When lockdep is enabled local locks have lockdep maps embedded. These
allow lockdep to validate the protections, i.e. inappropriate usage of a
preemption only protected sections would result in a lockdep warning
while the same problem would not be noticed with a plain
preempt_disable() based protection.
local locks also improve readability as they provide a named scope for
the protections while preempt/interrupt disable are opaque scopeless.
Finally local locks allow PREEMPT_RT to substitute them with real
locking primitives to ensure the correctness of operation in a fully
preemptible kernel.

If two threads concurrently fault at the same page, the thread that
won the race updates the PTE and its local TLB. For now, the other
thread gives up, simply does nothing, and continues.
It could happen that this second thread triggers another fault, whereby
it only updates its local TLB while handling the fault. Instead of
triggering another fault, let's directly update the local TLB of the
second thread. Function update_mmu_tlb is used here to update local
TLB on the second thread, and it is defined as empty on other arches.

register accesses are done slightly differently in net-next.

free_handle() for a foreign handle may race with inter-page compaction,
what can lead to memory corruption.
To avoid that, take write lock not read lock in free_handle to be
synchronized with __release_z3fold_page().
For example KASAN can detect it:
==================================================================
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in LZ4_decompress_safe+0x2c4/0x3b8

...
Apart from that, initialize zhdr->mapped_count in init_z3fold_page() and
remove "newpage" variable because it is not used anywhere.
