5d097056c9 kmemcg: account certain kmem allocations to memcg
Mark those kmem allocations that are known to be easily triggered from
userspace as __GFP_ACCOUNT/SLAB_ACCOUNT, which makes them accounted to
memcg.  For the list, see below:

 - threadinfo
 - task_struct
 - task_delay_info
 - pid
 - cred
 - mm_struct
 - vm_area_struct and vm_region (nommu)
 - anon_vma and anon_vma_chain
 - signal_struct
 - sighand_struct
 - fs_struct
 - files_struct
 - fdtable and fdtable->full_fds_bits
 - dentry and external_name
 - inode for all filesystems. This is the most tedious part, because
   most filesystems overwrite the alloc_inode method.

The list is far from complete, so feel free to add more objects.
Nevertheless, it should be close to "account everything" approach and
keep most workloads within bounds.  Malevolent users will be able to
breach the limit, but this was possible even with the former "account
everything" approach (simply because it did not account everything in
fact).

Pull misc vfs updates from Al Viro:
 "All kinds of stuff.  That probably should've been 5 or 6 separate
  branches, but by the time I'd realized how large and mixed that bag
  had become it had been too close to -final to play with rebasing.

  Some fs/namei.c cleanups there, memdup_user_nul() introduction and
  switching open-coded instances, burying long-dead code, whack-a-mole
  of various kinds, several new helpers for ->llseek(), assorted
  cleanups and fixes from various people, etc.

  One piece probably deserves special mention - Neil's
  lookup_one_len_unlocked().  Similar to lookup_one_len(), but gets
  called without ->i_mutex and tries to avoid ever taking it.  That, of
  course, means that it's not useful for any directory modifications,
  but things like getting inode attributes in nfds readdirplus are fine
  with that.  I really should've asked for moratorium on lookup-related
  changes this cycle, but since I hadn't done that early enough...  I
  *am* asking for that for the coming cycle, though - I'm going to try
  and get conversion of i_mutex to rwsem with ->lookup() done under lock
  taken shared.

  There will be a patch closer to the end of the window, along the lines
  of the one Linus had posted last May - mechanical conversion of
  ->i_mutex accesses to inode_lock()/inode_unlock()/inode_trylock()/
  inode_is_locked()/inode_lock_nested().  To quote Linus back then:

    -----
    |    This is an automated patch using
    |
    |        sed 's/mutex_lock(&\(.*\)->i_mutex)/inode_lock(\1)/'
    |        sed 's/mutex_unlock(&\(.*\)->i_mutex)/inode_unlock(\1)/'
    |        sed 's/mutex_lock_nested(&\(.*\)->i_mutex,[     ]*I_MUTEX_\([A-Z0-9_]*\))/inode_lock_nested(\1, I_MUTEX_\2)/'
    |        sed 's/mutex_is_locked(&\(.*\)->i_mutex)/inode_is_locked(\1)/'
    |        sed 's/mutex_trylock(&\(.*\)->i_mutex)/inode_trylock(\1)/'
    |
    |    with a very few manual fixups
    -----

  I'm going to send that once the ->i_mutex-affecting stuff in -next
  gets mostly merged (or when Linus says he's about to stop taking
  merges)"

Change the list operation to only return whether or not an attribute
should be listed.  Copying the attribute names into the buffer is moved
to the callers.

Since the result only depends on the dentry and not on the attribute
name, we do not pass the attribute name to list operations.

6b2553918d replace ->follow_link() with new method that could stay in RCU mode
new method: ->get_link(); replacement of ->follow_link().  The differences
are:
	* inode and dentry are passed separately
	* might be called both in RCU and non-RCU mode;
the former is indicated by passing it a NULL dentry.
	* when called that way it isn't allowed to block
and should return ERR_PTR(-ECHILD) if it needs to be called
in non-RCU mode.

It's a flagday change - the old method is gone, all in-tree instances
converted.  Conversion isn't hard; said that, so far very few instances
do not immediately bail out when called in RCU mode.  That'll change
in the next commits.

98e9cb5711 vfs: Distinguish between full xattr names and proper prefixes
Add an additional "name" field to struct xattr_handler.  When the name
is set, the handler matches attributes with exactly that name.  When the
prefix is set instead, the handler matches attributes with the given
prefix and with a non-empty suffix.

This patch should avoid bugs like the one fixed in commit c361016a in
the future.

a4dad1ae24 ext4: Fix handling of extended tv_sec
In ext4, the bottom two bits of {a,c,m}time_extra are used to extend
the {a,c,m}time fields, deferring the year 2038 problem to the year
2446.

When decoding these extended fields, for times whose bottom 32 bits
would represent a negative number, sign extension causes the 64-bit
extended timestamp to be negative as well, which is not what's
intended.  This patch corrects that issue, so that the only negative
{a,c,m}times are those between 1901 and 1970 (as per 32-bit signed
timestamps).

Some older kernels might have written pre-1970 dates with 1,1 in the
extra bits.  This patch treats those incorrectly-encoded dates as
pre-1970, instead of post-2311, until kernel 4.20 is released.
Hopefully by then e2fsck will have fixed up the bad data.

Also add a comment explaining the encoding of ext4's extra {a,c,m}time
bits.

d9a82a0403 xattr handlers: Pass handler to operations instead of flags
The xattr_handler operations are currently all passed a file system
specific flags value which the operations can use to disambiguate between
different handlers; some file systems use that to distinguish the xattr
namespace, for example.  In some oprations, it would be useful to also have
access to the handler prefix.  To allow that, pass a pointer to the handler
to operations instead of the flags value alone.

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.

4327ba52af ext4, jbd2: ensure entering into panic after recording an error in superblock
If a EXT4 filesystem utilizes JBD2 journaling and an error occurs, the
journaling will be aborted first and the error number will be recorded
into JBD2 superblock and, finally, the system will enter into the
panic state in "errors=panic" option.  But, in the rare case, this
sequence is little twisted like the below figure and it will happen
that the system enters into panic state, which means the system reset
in mobile environment, before completion of recording an error in the
journal superblock. In this case, e2fsck cannot recognize that the
filesystem failure occurred in the previous run and the corruption
wouldn't be fixed.

9c02ac9798 ext4: fix xfstest generic/269 double revoked buffer bug with bigalloc
When you repeatly execute xfstest generic/269 with bigalloc_1k option
enabled using the below command:

"./kvm-xfstests -c bigalloc_1k -m nodelalloc -C 1000 generic/269"

you can easily see the below bug message.

"JBD2 unexpected failure: jbd2_journal_revoke: !buffer_revoked(bh);"

This means that an already revoked buffer is erroneously revoked again
and it is caused by doing revoke for the buffer at the wrong position
in ext4_free_blocks(). We need to re-position the buffer revoke
procedure for an unspecified buffer after checking the cluster boundary
for bigalloc option. If not, some part of the cluster can be doubly
revoked.

063d99b4fa mm, fs: obey gfp_mapping for add_to_page_cache()
Commit 6afdb859b7 ("mm: do not ignore mapping_gfp_mask in page cache
allocation paths") has caught some users of hardcoded GFP_KERNEL used in
the page cache allocation paths.  This, however, wasn't complete and
there were others which went unnoticed.

Dave Chinner has reported the following deadlock for xfs on loop device:
: With the recent merge of the loop device changes, I'm now seeing
: XFS deadlock on my single CPU, 1GB RAM VM running xfs/073.
:
: The deadlocked is as follows:
:
: kloopd1: loop_queue_read_work
:       xfs_file_iter_read
:       lock XFS inode XFS_IOLOCK_SHARED (on image file)
:       page cache read (GFP_KERNEL)
:       radix tree alloc
:       memory reclaim
:       reclaim XFS inodes
:       log force to unpin inodes
:       <wait for log IO completion>
:
: xfs-cil/loop1: <does log force IO work>
:       xlog_cil_push
:       xlog_write
:       <loop issuing log writes>
:               xlog_state_get_iclog_space()
:               <blocks due to all log buffers under write io>
:               <waits for IO completion>
:
: kloopd1: loop_queue_write_work
:       xfs_file_write_iter
:       lock XFS inode XFS_IOLOCK_EXCL (on image file)
:       <wait for inode to be unlocked>
:
: i.e. the kloopd, with it's split read and write work queues, has
: introduced a dependency through memory reclaim. i.e. that writes
: need to be able to progress for reads make progress.
:
: The problem, fundamentally, is that mpage_readpages() does a
: GFP_KERNEL allocation, rather than paying attention to the inode's
: mapping gfp mask, which is set to GFP_NOFS.
:
: The didn't used to happen, because the loop device used to issue
: reads through the splice path and that does:
:
:       error = add_to_page_cache_lru(page, mapping, index,
:                       GFP_KERNEL & mapping_gfp_mask(mapping));

This has changed by commit aa4d86163e ("block: loop: switch to VFS
ITER_BVEC").

This patch changes mpage_readpage{s} to follow gfp mask set for the
mapping.  There are, however, other places which are doing basically the
same.

lustre:ll_dir_filler is doing GFP_KERNEL from the function which
apparently uses GFP_NOFS for other allocations so let's make this
consistent.

cifs:readpages_get_pages is called from cifs_readpages and
__cifs_readpages_from_fscache called from the same path obeys mapping
gfp.

ramfs_nommu_expand_for_mapping is hardcoding GFP_KERNEL as well
regardless it uses mapping_gfp_mask for the page allocation.

ext4_mpage_readpages is the called from the page cache allocation path
same as read_pages and read_cache_pages

As I've noticed in my previous post I cannot say I would be happy about
sprinkling mapping_gfp_mask all over the place and it sounds like we
should drop gfp_mask argument altogether and use it internally in
__add_to_page_cache_locked that would require all the filesystems to use
mapping gfp consistently which I am not sure is the case here.  From a
quick glance it seems that some file system use it all the time while
others are selective.

b90197b655 ext4: use private version of page_zero_new_buffers() for data=journal mode
If there is a error while copying data from userspace into the page
cache during a write(2) system call, in data=journal mode, in
ext4_journalled_write_end() were using page_zero_new_buffers() from
fs/buffer.c.  Unfortunately, this sets the buffer dirty flag, which is
no good if journalling is enabled.  This is a long-standing bug that
goes back for years and years in ext3, but a combination of (a)
data=journal not being very common, (b) in many case it only results
in a warning message. and (c) only very rarely causes the kernel hang,
means that we only really noticed this as a problem when commit
998ef75ddb caused this failure to happen frequently enough to cause
generic/208 to fail when run in data=journal mode.

The fix is to have our own version of this function that doesn't call
mark_dirty_buffer(), since we will end up calling
ext4_handle_dirty_metadata() on the buffer head(s) in questions very
shortly afterwards in ext4_journalled_write_end().

Thanks to Dave Hansen and Linus Torvalds for helping to identify the
root cause of the problem.

36086d43f6 ext4 crypto: fix bugs in ext4_encrypted_zeroout()
Fix multiple bugs in ext4_encrypted_zeroout(), including one that
could cause us to write an encrypted zero page to the wrong location
on disk, potentially causing data and file system corruption.
Fortunately, this tends to only show up in stress tests, but even with
these fixes, we are seeing some test failures with generic/127 --- but
these are now caused by data failures instead of metadata corruption.

Since ext4_encrypted_zeroout() is only used for some optimizations to
keep the extent tree from being too fragmented, and
ext4_encrypted_zeroout() itself isn't all that optimized from a time
or IOPS perspective, disable the extent tree optimization for
encrypted inodes for now.  This prevents the data corruption issues
reported by generic/127 until we can figure out what's going wrong.

pages written out in order to provide data=ordered guarantees --- and
a page is backed by an unwritten (e.g., uninitialized) block on disk,
or if delayed allocation means the page's backing store hasn't been
allocated yet.  In that case, we need to skip the call to
ext4_encrypt_page(), since in addition to wasting CPU, it leads to a
bounce page and an ext4 crypto context getting leaked.

a1c83681d5 fs: Drop unlikely before IS_ERR(_OR_NULL)
IS_ERR(_OR_NULL) already contain an 'unlikely' compiler flag and there
is no need to do that again from its callers. Drop it.
