2018-01-29Merge tag 'init_task-20180117' of ↵Linus Torvalds
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs Pull init_task initializer cleanups from David Howells: "It doesn't seem useful to have the init_task in a header file rather than in a normal source file. We could consolidate init_task handling instead and expand out various macros. Here's a series of patches that consolidate init_task handling: (1) Make THREAD_SIZE available to vmlinux.lds for cris, hexagon and openrisc. (2) Alter the INIT_TASK_DATA linker script macro to set init_thread_union and init_stack rather than defining these in C. Insert init_task and init_thread_into into the init_stack area in the linker script as appropriate to the configuration, with different section markers so that they end up correctly ordered. We can then get merge ia64's init_task.c into the main one. We then have a bunch of single-use INIT_*() macros that seem only to be macros because they used to be used per-arch. We can then expand these in place of the user and get rid of a few lines and a lot of backslashes. (3) Expand INIT_TASK() in place. (4) Expand in place various small INIT_*() macros that are defined conditionally. Expand them and surround them by #if[n]def/#endif in the .c file as it takes fewer lines. (5) Expand INIT_SIGNALS() and INIT_SIGHAND() in place. (6) Expand INIT_STRUCT_PID in place. These macros can then be discarded" * tag 'init_task-20180117' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs: Expand INIT_STRUCT_PID and remove Expand the INIT_SIGNALS and INIT_SIGHAND macros and remove Expand various INIT_* macros and remove Expand INIT_TASK() in init/init_task.c and remove Construct init thread stack in the linker script rather than by union openrisc: Make THREAD_SIZE available to vmlinux.lds hexagon: Make THREAD_SIZE available to vmlinux.lds cris: Make THREAD_SIZE available to vmlinux.lds
2018-01-29fs: handle inode->i_version more efficientlyJeff Layton
Since i_version is mostly treated as an opaque value, we can exploit that fact to avoid incrementing it when no one is watching. With that change, we can avoid incrementing the counter on writes, unless someone has queried for it since it was last incremented. If the a/c/mtime don't change, and the i_version hasn't changed, then there's no need to dirty the inode metadata on a write. Convert the i_version counter to an atomic64_t, and use the lowest order bit to hold a flag that will tell whether anyone has queried the value since it was last incremented. When we go to maybe increment it, we fetch the value and check the flag bit. If it's clear then we don't need to do anything if the update isn't being forced. If we do need to update, then we increment the counter by 2, and clear the flag bit, and then use a CAS op to swap it into place. If that works, we return true. If it doesn't then do it again with the value that we fetch from the CAS operation. On the query side, if the flag is already set, then we just shift the value down by 1 bit and return it. Otherwise, we set the flag in our on-stack value and again use cmpxchg to swap it into place if it hasn't changed. If it has, then we use the value from the cmpxchg as the new "old" value and try again. This method allows us to avoid incrementing the counter on writes (and dirtying the metadata) under typical workloads. We only need to increment if it has been queried since it was last changed.

At this point, we know that "now" and the file times may differ, and we suspect that the i_version has been flagged to be bumped.

2018-01-29fs: only set S_VERSION when updating times if necessaryJeff Layton
We only really need to update i_version if someone has queried for it since we last incremented it. By doing that, we can avoid having to update the inode if the times haven't changed. If the times have changed, then we go ahead and forcibly increment the counter, under the assumption that we'll be going to the storage anyway, and the increment itself is relatively cheap.

For AFS, it's generally treated as an opaque value, so we use the *_raw variants of the API here. Note that AFS has quite a different definition for this counter.

2018-01-29fs: don't take the i_lock in inode_inc_iversionJeff Layton
The rationale for taking the i_lock when incrementing this value is lost in antiquity. The readers of the field don't take it (at least not universally), so my assumption is that it was only done here to serialize incrementors. If that is indeed the case, then we can drop the i_lock from this codepath and treat it as a atomic64_t for the purposes of incrementing it. This allows us to use inode_inc_iversion without any danger of lock inversion. Note that the read side is not fetched atomically with this change. The assumption here is that that is not a critical issue since the i_version is not fully synchronized with anything else anyway.

2018-01-29fs: new API for handling inode->i_versionJeff Layton
Add a documentation blob that explains what the i_version field is, how it is expected to work, and how it is currently implemented by various filesystems. We already have inode_inc_iversion. Add several other functions for manipulating and accessing the i_version counter. For now, the implementation is trivial and basically works the way that all of the open-coded i_version accesses work today. Future patches will convert existing users of i_version to use the new API, and then convert the backend implementation to do things more efficiently.

Likewise if the Intel STIBP bit is set, set the AMD STIBP that's used for the generic hardware capability. Hide the rest from /proc/cpuinfo by putting "" in the comments. Including RETPOLINE and RETPOLINE_AMD which shouldn't be visible there. There are patches to make the sysfs vulnerabilities information non-readable by non-root, and the same should apply to all information about which mitigations are actually in use. Those *shouldn't* appear in /proc/cpuinfo. The feature bit for whether IBPB is actually used, which is needed for ALTERNATIVEs, is renamed to X86_FEATURE_USE_IBPB.

2018-01-27hrtimer: Reset hrtimer cpu base proper on CPU hotplugThomas Gleixner
The hrtimer interrupt code contains a hang detection and mitigation mechanism, which prevents that a long delayed hrtimer interrupt causes a continous retriggering of interrupts which prevent the system from making progress. If a hang is detected then the timer hardware is programmed with a certain delay into the future and a flag is set in the hrtimer cpu base which prevents newly enqueued timers from reprogramming the timer hardware prior to the chosen delay. The subsequent hrtimer interrupt after the delay clears the flag and resumes normal operation. If such a hang happens in the last hrtimer interrupt before a CPU is unplugged then the hang_detected flag is set and stays that way when the CPU is plugged in again. At that point the timer hardware is not armed and it cannot be armed because the hang_detected flag is still active, so nothing clears that flag. As a consequence the CPU does not receive hrtimer interrupts and no timers expire on that CPU which results in RCU stalls and other malfunctions. Clear the flag along with some other less critical members of the hrtimer cpu base to ensure starting from a clean state when a CPU is plugged in. Thanks to Paul, Sebastian and Anna-Maria for their help to get down to the root cause of that hard to reproduce heisenbug. Once understood it's trivial and certainly justifies a brown paperbag.

2018-01-27x86: Mark hpa as a "Designated Reviewer" for the time beingH. Peter Anvin
Due to some unfortunate events, I have not been directly involved in the x86 kernel patch flow for a while now. I have also not been able to ramp back up by now like I had hoped to, and after reviewing what I will need to work on both internally at Intel and elsewhere in the near term, it is clear that I am not going to be able to ramp back up until late 2018 at the very earliest. It is not acceptable to not recognize that this load is currently taken by Ingo and Thomas without my direct participation, so I mark myself as R: (designated reviewer) rather than M: (maintainer) until further notice. This is in fact recognizing the de facto situation for the past few years. I have obviously no intention of going away, and I will do everything within my power to improve Linux on x86 and x86 for Linux. This, however, puts credit where it is due and reflects a change of focus. This patch also removes stale entries for portions of the x86 architecture which have not been maintained separately from arch/x86 for a long time. If there is a reason to re-introduce them then that can happen later. Signed-off-by: H.

Sorry to send something essentially as late as possible (Friday after an rc9), but we managed to get a mailing list for the RISC-V Linux port. We've been using patches@groups.riscv.org for a while, but that list has some problems (it's Google Groups and it's shared over all RISC-V software projects). The new infaread.org list is much better. We just got it on Wednesday but I used it a bit on Thursday to shake out all the configuration problems and it appears to be in working order. When I updated the mailing list I noticed that the MAINTAINERS file was pointing to our github repo, but now that we have a kernel.org repo I'd like to point to that instead so I changed that as well. We'll be centralizing all RISC-V Linux related development here as that seems to be the saner way to go about it. I can understand if it's too late to get this into 4.15, but given that it's not a code change I was hoping it'd still be OK. It would be nice to have the new mailing list and git repo in the release tarballs so when people start to find bugs they'll get to the right place" * tag 'riscv-for-linus-4.15-maintainers' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/palmer/riscv-linux: Update the RISC-V MAINTAINERS file
