45961722f8 mm: add support for discard of unused ptes
In a virtualized environment and given an appropriate interface the guest
can mark pages as unused while they are free (for the s390 implementation
see git commit 45e576b1c3 "guest page hinting light"). For the host
the unused state is a property of the pte.

This patch adds the primitive 'pte_unused' and code to the host swap out
handler so that pages marked as unused by all mappers are not swapped out
but discarded instead, thus saving one IO for swap out and potentially
another one for swap in.

56eecdb912 mm: Use ptep/pmdp_set_numa() for updating _PAGE_NUMA bit
Archs like ppc64 doesn't do tlb flush in set_pte/pmd functions when using
a hash table MMU for various reasons (the flush is handled as part of
the PTE modification when necessary).

ppc64 thus doesn't implement flush_tlb_range for hash based MMUs.

Additionally ppc64 require the tlb flushing to be batched within ptl locks.

The reason to do that is to ensure that the hash page table is in sync with
linux page table.

We track the hpte index in linux pte and if we clear them without flushing
hash and drop the ptl lock, we can have another cpu update the pte and can
end up with duplicate entry in the hash table, which is fatal.

We also want to keep set_pte_at simpler by not requiring them to do hash
flush for performance reason. We do that by assuming that set_pte_at() is
never *ever* called on a PTE that is already valid.

This was the case until the NUMA code went in which broke that assumption.

Fix that by introducing a new pair of helpers to set _PAGE_NUMA in a
way similar to ptep/pmdp_set_wrprotect(), with a generic implementation
using set_pte_at() and a powerpc specific one using the appropriate
mechanism needed to keep the hash table in sync.

c32fa99f0b bitops: Fix signedness of compile-time hweight implementations
Enabling '-Wsign-compare' compiler warnings on code that includes
include/linux/bitops.h can generate the following warning:

  In file included from include/linux/kernel.h:10:0,
                    from <random filename>:48:
  include/linux/bitops.h: In function 'hweight_long':
  include/linux/bitops.h:77:26: error: signed and unsigned type in conditional expression [-Werror=sign-compare]

(converted to an error with -Werror)

This is due to the use of the logical negation operator '!' in the
__const_hweight8 macro in include/asm-generic/bitops/const_hweight.h.
The use of that operator here results in a signed value.

Fix by explicitly casting the __const_hweight8 macro expansion to
'unsigned int'.  While here, clean up several checkpatch.pl warnings.

Pull powerpc mremap fix from Ben Herrenschmidt:
 "This is the patch that I had sent after -rc8 and which we decided to
  wait before merging.  It's based on a different tree than my -next
  branch (it needs some pre-reqs that were in -rc4 or so while my -next
  is based on -rc1) so I left it as a separate branch for your to pull.
  It's identical to the request I did 2 or 3 weeks back.

  This fixes crashes in mremap with THP on powerpc.

  The fix however requires a small change in the generic code.  It moves
  a condition into a helper we can override from the arch which is
  harmless, but it *also* slightly changes the order of the set_pmd and
  the withdraw & deposit, which should be fine according to Kirill (who
  wrote that code) but I agree -rc8 is a bit late...

  It was acked by Kirill and Andrew told me to just merge it via powerpc"

d57c33c5da add generic fixmap.h
Many architectures provide an asm/fixmap.h which defines support for
compile-time 'special' virtual mappings which need to be made before
paging_init() has run.  This support is also used for early ioremap on
x86.  Much of this support is identical across the architectures.  This
patch consolidates all of the common bits into asm-generic/fixmap.h
which is intended to be included from arch/*/include/asm/fixmap.h.

This is the (reworked for UAPI) non-documentation part of more than two
year old "asm/types.h: All architectures use int-ll64.h in kernelspace"
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/13/104)

Since <asm/types.h> (from include/uapi/asm-generic/types.h) is used for
both kernel and user space, include/asm-generic/int-ll64.h cannot just
become include/asm-generic/types.h, as Arnd suggested.

262fd3aad6 audit: Modify a set of system calls in audit class definitions
Each asm-generic/audit_xx.h defines a set of system calls for respective
audit permission class (read, write, change attribute or exec).
This patch changes two entries:

1) fchown in audit_change_attr.h
  Make fchown included by its own because in asm-generic/unistd.h, for example,
  fchown always exists while chown is optional. This change is necessary at
  least for arm64.

2) truncate64 in audit_write.h
  Add missing truncate64/ftruncate64 as well as truncate/ftruncate

47933ad41a arch: Introduce smp_load_acquire(), smp_store_release()
A number of situations currently require the heavyweight smp_mb(),
even though there is no need to order prior stores against later
loads.  Many architectures have much cheaper ways to handle these
situations, but the Linux kernel currently has no portable way
to make use of them.

This commit therefore supplies smp_load_acquire() and
smp_store_release() to remedy this situation.  The new
smp_load_acquire() primitive orders the specified load against
any subsequent reads or writes, while the new smp_store_release()
primitive orders the specifed store against any prior reads or
writes.  These primitives allow array-based circular FIFOs to be
implemented without an smp_mb(), and also allow a theoretical
hole in rcu_assign_pointer() to be closed at no additional
expense on most architectures.

In addition, the RCU experience transitioning from explicit
smp_read_barrier_depends() and smp_wmb() to rcu_dereference()
and rcu_assign_pointer(), respectively resulted in substantial
improvements in readability.  It therefore seems likely that
replacing other explicit barriers with smp_load_acquire() and
smp_store_release() will provide similar benefits.  It appears
that roughly half of the explicit barriers in core kernel code
might be so replaced.

93ea02bb84 arch: Clean up asm/barrier.h implementations using asm-generic/barrier.h
We're going to be adding a few new barrier primitives, and in order to
avoid endless duplication make more agressive use of
asm-generic/barrier.h.

Change the asm-generic/barrier.h such that it allows partial barrier
definitions and fills out the rest with defaults.

There are a few architectures (m32r, m68k) that could probably
do away with their barrier.h file entirely but are kept for now due to
their unconventional nop() implementation.

ee53664bda mm: Fix NULL pointer dereference in madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) support
Sasha Levin found a NULL pointer dereference that is due to a missing
page table lock, which in turn is due to the pmd entry in question being
a transparent huge-table entry.

The code - introduced in commit 1998cc0489 ("mm: make
madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) support swap file prefetch") - correctly checks
for this situation using pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), but it
turns out that that function doesn't work correctly.

pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() expected that pmd_bad() would
trigger if the transparent hugepage bit was set, but it doesn't do that
if pmd_numa() is also set. Note that the NUMA bit only gets set on real
NUMA machines, so people trying to reproduce this on most normal
development systems would never actually trigger this.

Fix it by removing the very subtle (and subtly incorrect) expectation,
and instead just checking pmd_trans_huge() explicitly.

2084140594 mm: fix TLB flush race between migration, and change_protection_range
There are a few subtle races, between change_protection_range (used by
mprotect and change_prot_numa) on one side, and NUMA page migration and
compaction on the other side.

The basic race is that there is a time window between when the PTE gets
made non-present (PROT_NONE or NUMA), and the TLB is flushed.

During that time, a CPU may continue writing to the page.

This is fine most of the time, however compaction or the NUMA migration
code may come in, and migrate the page away.

When that happens, the CPU may continue writing, through the cached
translation, to what is no longer the current memory location of the
process.

This only affects x86, which has a somewhat optimistic pte_accessible.
All other architectures appear to be safe, and will either always flush,
or flush whenever there is a valid mapping, even with no permissions
(SPARC).

The basic race looks like this:

CPU A			CPU B			CPU C

						load TLB entry
make entry PTE/PMD_NUMA
			fault on entry
						read/write old page
			start migrating page
			change PTE/PMD to new page
						read/write old page [*]
flush TLB
						reload TLB from new entry
						read/write new page
						lose data

[*] the old page may belong to a new user at this point!

The obvious fix is to flush remote TLB entries, by making sure that
pte_accessible aware of the fact that PROT_NONE and PROT_NUMA memory may
still be accessible if there is a TLB flush pending for the mm.

This should fix both NUMA migration and compaction.

71ae8aac3e lib: introduce arch optimized hash library
We introduce a new hashing library that is meant to be used in
the contexts where speed is more important than uniformity of the
hashed values. The hash library leverages architecture specific
implementation to achieve high performance and fall backs to
jhash() for the generic case.

On Intel-based x86 architectures, the library can exploit the crc32l
instruction, part of the Intel SSE4.2 instruction set, if the
instruction is supported by the processor. This implementation
is twice as fast as the jhash() implementation on an i7 processor.

Additional architectures, such as Arm64 provide instructions for
accelerating the computation of CRC, so they could be added as well
in follow-up work.

ba1f14fbe7 sched: Remove PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED from generic code
While hunting a preemption issue with Alexander, Ben noticed that the
currently generic PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED stuff is horribly broken for
load-store architectures.

We currently rely on the IPI to fold TIF_NEED_RESCHED into
PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED, but when this IPI lands while we already have
a load for the preempt-count but before the store, the store will erase
the PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED change.

The current preempt-count only works on load-store archs because
interrupts are assumed to be completely balanced wrt their preempt_count
fiddling; the previous preempt_count load will match the preempt_count
state after the interrupt and therefore nothing gets lost.

This patch removes the PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED usage from generic code and
pushes it into x86 arch code; the generic code goes back to relying on
TIF_NEED_RESCHED.

Boot tested on x86_64 and compile tested on ppc64.

c2d3306991 GPIO bulk changes for the v3.13 development cycle
- Merged the GPIO descriptor API from Alexandre Courbot.
   This is a first step toward trying to get rid of the
   global GPIO numberspace for the future.
 
 - Add an API so that driver can flag that a certain GPIO
   line is being used by a irqchip backend for generating
   IRQs, so that we can enforce checks, like not allowing
   users to switch that line to an output at runtime, since
   this makes no sense. Implemented corresponding calls
   in a few select drivers.
 
 - ACPI GPIO cleanups, refactorings and switch to using the
   descriptor-based interface.
 
 - Support for the TPS80036 Palmas GPIO variant.
 
 - A new driver for the Broadcom Kona GPIO SoC IP block.
 
 - Device tree support for the PCF857x driver.
 
 - A set of ARM GPIO refactorings with the goal of getting
   rid of a bunch of custom GPIO implementations from the
   arch/arm/* tree:
 
   - Move the IOP GPIO driver to the GPIO subsystem and
     fix all users to use the gpiolib API for accessing
     GPIOs. Delete the old custom GPIO implementation.
 
   - Delete the unused custom PXA GPIO implemention.
 
   - Convert all users of the IXP4 custom GPIO
     implementation to use gpiolib and delete the custom
     implementation.
 
   - Delete the custom Gemini GPIO implementation, also
     completely unused.
 
 - Various cleanups and renamings.

Pull GPIO changes from Linus Walleij:
 "Here is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v3.13 development cycle.

  I've got ACKs for the things that affect other subsystems (or it's my
  own subsystem, like pinctrl).  Most of that pertain to an attempt from

  the ARM tree.  I will continue doing this.

  The main change this time is the new GPIO descriptor API, background
  for this can be found in Corbet's summary from this january in LWN:

79a9becda8 gpiolib: export descriptor-based GPIO interface
This patch exports the gpiod_* family of API functions, a safer
alternative to the legacy GPIO interface. Differences between the gpiod
and legacy gpio APIs are:

- gpio works with integers, whereas gpiod operates on opaque handlers
  which cannot be forged or used before proper acquisition
- gpiod get/set functions are aware of the active low state of a GPIO
- gpio consumers should now include <linux/gpio/consumer.h> to access
  the new interface, whereas chips drivers will use
  <linux/gpio/driver.h>

The legacy gpio API is now built as inline functions on top of gpiod.

section, depending on gcc (and binutils) version .

d468bf9eca gpio: add API to be strict about GPIO IRQ usage
It is currently often possible in many GPIO drivers to request
a GPIO line to be used as IRQ after calling gpio_to_irq() and,
as the gpiolib is not aware of this, set the same line to
output and start driving it, with undesired side effects.

As it is a bogus usage scenario to request a line flagged as
output to used as IRQ, we introduce APIs to let gpiolib track
the use of a line as IRQ, and also set this flag from the
userspace ABI.

The API is symmetric so that lines can also be flagged from
.irq_enable() and unflagged from IRQ by .irq_disable().
The debugfs file is altered so that we see if a line is
reserved for IRQ.

2679494246 mm: Fix generic hugetlb pte check return type.
The include/asm-generic/hugetlb.h stubs that just vector huge_pte_*()
calls to the pte_*() implementations won't work in certain situations.

x86 and sparc, for example, return "unsigned long" from the bit
checks, and just go "return pte_val(pte) & PTE_BIT_FOO;"

But since huge_pte_*() returns 'int', if any high bits on 64-bit are
relevant, they get chopped off.

The net effect is that we can loop forever trying to COW a huge page,
because the huge_pte_write() check signals false all the time.

75f93fed50 sched: Revert need_resched() to look at TIF_NEED_RESCHED
Yuanhan reported a serious throughput regression in his pigz
benchmark. Using the ftrace patch I found that several idle
paths need more TLC before we can switch the generic
need_resched() over to preempt_need_resched.

The preemption paths benefit most from preempt_need_resched and
do indeed use it; all other need_resched() users don't really
care that much so reverting need_resched() back to
tif_need_resched() is the simple and safe solution.
