71baba4b92 mm, page_alloc: rename __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIM
__GFP_WAIT was used to signal that the caller was in atomic context and
could not sleep.  Now it is possible to distinguish between true atomic
context and callers that are not willing to sleep.  The latter should
clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM so kswapd will still wake.  As clearing
__GFP_WAIT behaves differently, there is a risk that people will clear the
wrong flags.  This patch renames __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIM to clearly
indicate what it does -- setting it allows all reclaim activity, clearing
them prevents it.

d0164adc89 mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable to sleep, unwilling to sleep and avoiding waking kswapd
__GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold
spinlocks or are in interrupts.  They are expected to be high priority and
have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred
to as the "atomic reserve".  __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first
lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve".

Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options
were available.  Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where
an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic
reserves.

This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic,
cannot sleep and have no alternative.  High priority users continue to use
__GFP_HIGH.  __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and
are willing to enter direct reclaim.  __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify
callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim.  __GFP_WAIT is
redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake
kswapd for background reclaim.

This patch then converts a number of sites

o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory
  pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag.

o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear
  __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall
  into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves
  are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress.

o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the
  helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because
  checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false
  positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent
  is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to
  flag manipulations.

o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL
  and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.

The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT
and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons.
In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH.

The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of
GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL.  They may
now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.  It's almost certainly harmless
if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

aa750fd71c mm/filemap.c: make global sync not clear error status of individual inodes
filemap_fdatawait() is a function to wait for on-going writeback to
complete but also consume and clear error status of the mapping set during
writeback.

The latter functionality is critical for applications to detect writeback
error with system calls like fsync(2)/fdatasync(2).

However filemap_fdatawait() is also used by sync(2) or FIFREEZE ioctl,
which don't check error status of individual mappings.

As a result, fsync() may not be able to detect writeback error if events
happen in the following order:

   Application                    System admin
   ----------------------------------------------------------
   write data on page cache
                                  Run sync command
                                  writeback completes with error
                                  filemap_fdatawait() clears error
   fsync returns success
   (but the data is not on disk)

This patch adds filemap_fdatawait_keep_errors() for call sites where
writeback error is not handled so that they don't clear error status.

because we have to identify which volume/domain the messages belong to.

Since thread name will be printed to messages, so add volume uuid or dlm

1d1aff8cf3 ocfs2: improve performance for localalloc
Currently cluster allocation is always trying to find a victim chain (a
chian has most space), and this may lead to poor performance because of
discontiguous allocation in some scenarios.

Our test case is block size 4k, cluster size 1M and mount option with
localalloc=2048 (2G), since a gd is 32256M (about 31.5G) and a localalloc
window is only 2G, creating 50G file will result in 2G from gd0, 2G from
gd1, ...

One way to improve performance is enlarge localalloc window size (max
31104M), but this will make end user feel that about 30G is suddenly
"missing", and localalloc currently do not support steal, which means one
node cannot use another node's localalloc even it is not used in fact.  So
using the last gd to record the allocation and continues with the gd if it
has enough space for a localalloc window can make the allocation as more
contiguous as possible.

Our test result is below (evaluated in IOPS), which is using iometer
running in VM, dynamic vhd virtual disk stored in ocfs2.

IO model                Original   After   Improved(%)

2) truncate /mnt/hello -s 2097152
file 'hello' is not exist before test. After this command,
file 'hello' should be all zero. But 512~4096 is some random data.

Setting bh state to new when get a new block, if so,
direct_io_worker()->dio_zero_block() will fill-in the unused portion

d30e2c05a1 inotify: actually check for invalid bits in sys_inotify_add_watch()
The comment here says that it is checking for invalid bits.  But, the mask
is *actually* checking to ensure that _any_ valid bit is set, which is
quite different.

Without this check, an unexpected bit could get set on an inotify object.
Since these bits are also interpreted by the fsnotify/dnotify code, there
is the potential for an object to be mishandled inside the kernel.  For
instance, can we be sure that setting the dnotify flag FS_DN_RENAME on an
inotify watch is harmless?

Add the actual check which was intended.  Retain the existing inotify bits
are being added to the watch.  Plus, this is existing behavior which would
be nice to preserve.

I did a quick sniff test that inotify functions and that my
'inotify-tools' package passes 'make check'.

6933599697 inotify: hide internal kernel bits from fdinfo
There was a report that my patch:

    inotify: actually check for invalid bits in sys_inotify_add_watch()

broke CRIU.

The reason is that CRIU looks up raw flags in /proc/$pid/fdinfo/* to
figure out how to rebuild inotify watches and then passes those flags
directly back in to the inotify API.  One of those flags
(FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD) is set in mark->mask, but is not part of the inotify
API.  It is used inside the kernel to _implement_ inotify but it is not
and has never been part of the API.

My patch above ensured that we only allow bits which are part of the API
(IN_ALL_EVENTS).  This broke CRIU.

FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD is really internal to the kernel.  It is set _anyway_ on
all inotify marks.  So, CRIU was really just trying to set a bit that was
already set.

This patch hides that bit from fdinfo.  CRIU will not see the bit, not try
to set it, and should work as before.  We should not have been exposing
this bit in the first place, so this is a good patch independent of the
CRIU problem.

 "There is only one new feature in this pull for the 4.4 merge window,
  most of it is small enhancements, cleanup and bug fixes:

   - Add the s390 backend for the software dirty bit tracking.  This
     adds two new pgtable functions pte_clear_soft_dirty and
     pmd_clear_soft_dirty which is why there is a hit to
     arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable.h in this pull request.

   - A series of cleanup patches for the AP bus, this includes the
     removal of the support for two outdated crypto cards (PCICC and
     PCICA).

   - The irq handling / signaling on buffer full in the runtime
     instrumentation code is dropped.

   - Some micro optimizations: remove unnecessary memory barriers for a
     couple of functions: [smb_]rmb, [smb_]wmb, atomics, bitops, and for
     spin_unlock.  Use the builtin bswap if available and make
     test_and_set_bit_lock more cache friendly.

   - Statistics and a tracepoint for the diagnose calls to the
     hypervisor.

   - The CPU measurement facility support to sample KVM guests is
     improved.

   - The vector instructions are now always enabled for user space
     processes if the hardware has the vector facility.  This simplifies
     the FPU handling code.  The fpu-internal.h header is split into fpu
     internals, api and types just like x86.

   - Cleanup and improvements for the common I/O layer.

   - Rework udelay to solve a problem with kprobe.  udelay has busy loop

a6b1533e9a dlm: make posix locks interruptible
Replace wait_event_killable with wait_event_interruptible
so that a program waiting for a posix lock can be
interrupted by a signal.  With the killable version,
a program was not interruptible by a signal if it
had a signal handler set for it, overriding the default
action of terminating the process.

a5ad88ce8c mm: get rid of 'vmalloc_info' from /proc/meminfo
It turns out that at least some versions of glibc end up reading
/proc/meminfo at every single startup, because glibc wants to know the
amount of memory the machine has.  And while that's arguably insane,
it's just how things are.

And it turns out that it's not all that expensive most of the time, but
the vmalloc information statistics (amount of virtual memory used in the
vmalloc space, and the biggest remaining chunk) can be rather expensive
to compute.

The 'get_vmalloc_info()' function actually showed up on my profiles as
4% of the CPU usage of "make test" in the git source repository, because
the git tests are lots of very short-lived shell-scripts etc.

It turns out that apparently this same silly vmalloc info gathering
shows up on the facebook servers too, according to Dave Jones.  So it's
not just "make test" for git.

We had two patches to just cache the information (one by me, one by
Ingo) to mitigate this issue, but the whole vmalloc information of of
rather dubious value to begin with, and people who *actually* want to
know what the situation is wrt the vmalloc area should just look at the
much more complete /proc/vmallocinfo instead.

In fact, according to my testing - and perhaps more importantly,
according to that big search engine in the sky: Google - there is
nothing out there that actually cares about those two expensive fields:
VmallocUsed and VmallocChunk.

So let's try to just remove them entirely.  Actually, this just removes
the computation and reports the numbers as zero for now, just to try to
be minimally intrusive.

If this breaks anything, we'll obviously have to re-introduce the code
to compute this all and add the caching patches on top.  But if given
the option, I'd really prefer to just remove this bad idea entirely
rather than add even more code to work around our historical mistake
that likely nobody really cares about.

2e00266297 Merge branch 'fs-file-descriptor-optimization'
Merge file descriptor allocation speedup.

Eric Dumazet has a test-case for a fairly common network deamon load
pattern: openign and closing a lot of sockets that each have very little
work done on them.  It turns out that in that case, the cost of just
finding the correct file descriptor number can be a dominating factor.

We've long had a trivial optimization for allocating file descriptors
sequentially, but that optimization ends up being not very effective
when other file descriptors are being closed concurrently, and the fd
patterns are not some simple FIFO pattern.  In such cases we ended up
spending a lot of time just scanning the bitmap of open file descriptors
in order to find the next file descriptor number to open.

This trivial patch-series mitigates that by simply introducing a
second-level bitmap of which words in the first bitmap are already fully
allocated.  That cuts down the cost of scanning by an order of magnitude
in some pathological (but realistic) cases.

The second patch is an even more trivial patch to avoid unnecessarily
dirtying the cacheline for the close-on-exec bit array that normally
ends up being all empty.

fc90888d07 vfs: conditionally clear close-on-exec flag
We clear the close-on-exec flag when opening and closing files, and the
bit was almost always already clear before.  Avoid dirtying the
cacheline if the clearning isn't necessary.  That avoids unnecessary
cacheline dirtying and bouncing in multi-socket environments.

Eric Dumazet has a file descriptor benchmark that goes 4% faster from
this on his two-socket machine.  It's probably partly superlinear
improvement due to getting slightly less spinlock contention on the
file_lock spinlock due to less work in the critical section.

f3f86e33dc vfs: Fix pathological performance case for __alloc_fd()
Al Viro points out that:

And Eric Dumazet has a somewhat realistic multithreaded microbenchmark
that opens and closes a lot of sockets with minimal work per socket.

This patch largely fixes it.  We keep a 2nd-level bitmap of the open
file bitmaps, showing which words are already full.  So then we can
traverse that second-level bitmap to efficiently skip already allocated
file descriptors.

On his benchmark, this improves performance by up to an order of
magnitude, by avoiding the excessive open file bitmap scanning.

b33e18f61b fs/writeback, rcu: Don't use list_entry_rcu() for pointer offsetting in bdi_split_work_to_wbs()
bdi_split_work_to_wbs() uses list_for_each_entry_rcu_continue()
to walk @bdi->wb_list.  To set up the initial iteration
condition, it uses list_entry_rcu() to calculate the entry
pointer corresponding to the list head; however, this isn't an
actual RCU dereference and using list_entry_rcu() for it ended
up breaking a proposed list_entry_rcu() change because it was
feeding an non-lvalue pointer into the macro.

Don't use the RCU variant for simple pointer offsetting.  Use
list_entry() instead.

f2ca379642 namei: permit linking with CAP_FOWNER in userns
Attempting to hardlink to an unsafe file (e.g. a setuid binary) from
within an unprivileged user namespace fails, even if CAP_FOWNER is held
within the namespace. This may cause various failures, such as a gentoo
installation within a lxc container failing to build and install specific
packages.

This change permits hardlinking of files owned by mapped uids, if
CAP_FOWNER is held for that namespace. Furthermore, it improves consistency
by using the existing inode_owner_or_capable(), which is aware of
namespaced capabilities as of 23adbe12ef ("fs,userns: Change
inode_capable to capable_wrt_inode_uidgid").

This is hitting us in Ubuntu during some dpkg upgrades in containers.
When upgrading a file dpkg creates a hard link to the old file to back
it up before overwriting it. When packages upgrade suid files owned by a
non-root user the link isn't permitted, and the package upgrade fails.
This patch fixes our problem.
