Large enterprise clients often run applications out of networked file
systems where the IT mandated layout of project volumes can end up
leading to paths that are longer than 128 characters. Bumping this up
to the next order of two solves this problem in all but the most
egregious case while still fitting into a 512b slab.

Now splice() on O_DIRECT-opened fat file will return -EFAULT, that is
because the default .splice_write, namely default_file_splice_write(),
will construct an ITER_KVEC iov_iter and dio_refill_pages() in dio path
can not handle it.
Fix it by implementing .splice_write through iter_file_splice_write().

autofs does not expect the pipe it is given to have O_NONBLOCK set -
specifically if __kernel_write() in autofs_write() returns -EAGAIN, this
is treated as a fatal error and the pipe is closed.
For safety autofs should, therefore, clear the O_NONBLOCK flag.
Releases of systemd prior to 8th February 2019 used
pipe2(p, O_NONBLOCK|O_CLOEXEC)
and thus (inadvertently) set this flag.

Add an autofs file system mount option that can be used to provide a
generic indicator to applications that the mount entry should be ignored
when displaying mount information.
In other OSes that provide autofs and that provide a mount list to user
space based on the kernel mount list a no-op mount option ("ignore" is
the one use on the most common OS) is allowed so that autofs file system
users can optionally use it.
The idea is that it be used by user space programs to exclude autofs
mounts from consideration when reading the mounts list.
Prior to the change to link /etc/mtab to /proc/self/mounts all I needed
to do to achieve this was to use mount(2) and not update the mtab but
now that no longer works.
I know the symlinking happened a long time ago and I considered doing
this then but, at the time I couldn't remember the commonly used option
name and thought persuading the various utility maintainers would be too
hard.
But now I have a RHEL request to do this for compatibility for a widely
used product so I want to go ahead with it and try and enlist the help
of some utility package maintainers.
Clearly, without the option nothing can be done so it's at least a
start.

The goal of this patch is to reduce contention of ep_poll_callback()
which can be called concurrently from different CPUs in case of high
events rates and many fds per epoll. Problem can be very well
reproduced by generating events (write to pipe or eventfd) from many
threads, while consumer thread does polling. In other words this patch
increases the bandwidth of events which can be delivered from sources to
the poller by adding poll items in a lockless way to the list.
The main change is in replacement of the spinlock with a rwlock, which
is taken on read in ep_poll_callback(), and then by adding poll items to
the tail of the list using xchg atomic instruction. Write lock is taken
everywhere else in order to stop list modifications and guarantee that
list updates are fully completed (I assume that write side of a rwlock
does not starve, it seems qrwlock implementation has these guarantees).
The following are some microbenchmark results based on the test [1]
which starts threads which generate N events each. The test ends when
all events are successfully fetched by the poller thread:
spinlock
========
threads events/ms run-time ms
8 6402 12495
16 7045 22709
32 7395 43268
rwlock + xchg
=============
threads events/ms run-time ms
8 10038 7969
16 12178 13138
32 13223 24199
According to the results bandwidth of delivered events is significantly
increased, thus execution time is reduced.
This patch was tested with different sort of microbenchmarks and
artificial delays (e.g. "udelay(get_random_int() & 0xff)") introduced
in kernel on paths where items are added to lists.

Original comment "Activate ep->ws since epi->ws may get deactivated at
any time" indeed sounds loud, but it is incorrect, because the path
where we check epi->ws is a path where insert to ovflist happens, i.e.
ep_scan_ready_list() has taken ep->mtx and waits for this callback to
finish, thus ep_modify() (which unregisters wakeup source) waits for
ep_scan_ready_list().
Here in this patch I simply call ep_pm_stay_awake_rcu(), which is a bit
extra for this path (indirectly protected by main ep->mtx, so even rcu
is not needed), but I do not want to create another naked
__ep_pm_stay_awake() variant only for this particular case, so rcu variant
is just better for all the cases.

Patch series "use rwlock in order to reduce ep_poll_callback()
contention", v3.
The last patch targets the contention problem in ep_poll_callback(),

The following are some microbenchmark results based on the test [1]
which starts threads which generate N events each. The test ends when

According to the results bandwidth of delivered events is significantly
increased, thus execution time is reduced.
This patch (of 4):
All coming events are stored in FIFO order and this is also should be
applicable to ->ovflist, which originally is stack, i.e. LIFO.
Thus to keep correct FIFO order ->ovflist should reversed by adding
elements to the head of the read list but not to the tail.

First, the btrfs_debug macros open-code (one possible definition of)
DYNAMIC_DEBUG_BRANCH, so they don't benefit from the CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL
optimization.
Second, a planned change of struct _ddebug (to reduce its size on 64 bit
machines) requires that all descriptors in a translation unit use
distinct identifiers.
Using the new _dynamic_func_call_no_desc helper macro from
dynamic_debug.h takes care of both of these. No functional change.

- qgroups can now skip part of a tree that does not get updated
during relocation, because this does not affect the quota
accounting, estimated speedup in run time is about 20%
- the compression workspace management had to be enhanced due to zstd
requirements
- various enospc fixes, when there's high fragmentation the
over-reservation can cause ENOSPC that might not happen after a
flush, in such cases try to wait if the situation improves
Fixes:
- various ioctls could overwrite previous return value if
copy_to_user fails, fix this so the original error is reported
- more reclaim vs GFP_KERNEL fixes
- other cleanups and refactoring
- fix a (valid) lockdep warning in a test when device replace is
destroying worker threads
- make qgroup async transaction commit more aggressive, this avoids
some 'quota limit reached' errors if there are not enough data to
trigger transaction in order to flush
- fix deadlock between snapshot deletion and quotas when backref
walking is called from context that already holds the same locks
- fsync fixes:
- fix fsync after succession of renames of different files
- fix fsync after succession of renames and unlink/rmdir"

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The biggest part of this tree is the new auto-generated atomics API
wrappers by Mark Rutland.
The primary motivation was to allow instrumentation without uglifying
the primary source code.
The linecount increase comes from adding the auto-generated files to
the Git space as well:
include/asm-generic/atomic-instrumented.h | 1689 ++++++++++++++++--
include/asm-generic/atomic-long.h | 1174 ++++++++++---
include/linux/atomic-fallback.h | 2295 +++++++++++++++++++++++++
include/linux/atomic.h | 1241 +------------
I preferred this approach, so that the full call stack of the (already
complex) locking APIs is still fully visible in 'git grep'.
But if this is excessive we could certainly hide them.
There's a separate build-time mechanism to determine whether the
headers are out of date (they should never be stale if we do our job
right).
Anyway, nothing from this should be visible to regular kernel
developers.

Android uses ashmem for sharing memory regions. We are looking forward
to migrating all usecases of ashmem to memfd so that we can possibly
remove the ashmem driver in the future from staging while also
benefiting from using memfd and contributing to it. Note staging
drivers are also not ABI and generally can be removed at anytime.
One of the main usecases Android has is the ability to create a region
and mmap it as writeable, then add protection against making any
"future" writes while keeping the existing already mmap'ed
writeable-region active. This allows us to implement a usecase where
receivers of the shared memory buffer can get a read-only view, while
the sender continues to write to the buffer. See CursorWindow
documentation in Android for more details:
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/database/CursorWindow
This usecase cannot be implemented with the existing F_SEAL_WRITE seal.
To support the usecase, this patch adds a new F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE seal
which prevents any future mmap and write syscalls from succeeding while
keeping the existing mmap active.
A better way to do F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE seal was discussed [1] last week
where we don't need to modify core VFS structures to get the same
behavior of the seal. This solves several side-effects pointed by Andy.
self-tests are provided in later patch to verify the expected semantics.

Patch series "psi: pressure stall monitors", v3.
Android is adopting psi to detect and remedy memory pressure that
results in stuttering and decreased responsiveness on mobile devices.
Psi gives us the stall information, but because we're dealing with
latencies in the millisecond range, periodically reading the pressure
files to detect stalls in a timely fashion is not feasible. Psi also
doesn't aggregate its averages at a high enough frequency right now.
This patch series extends the psi interface such that users can
configure sensitive latency thresholds and use poll() and friends to be
notified when these are breached.
As high-frequency aggregation is costly, it implements an aggregation
method that is optimized for fast, short-interval averaging, and makes
the aggregation frequency adaptive, such that high-frequency updates
only happen while monitored stall events are actively occurring.
With these patches applied, Android can monitor for, and ward off,
mounting memory shortages before they cause problems for the user. For
example, using memory stall monitors in userspace low memory killer
daemon (lmkd) we can detect mounting pressure and kill less important
processes before device becomes visibly sluggish.
In our memory stress testing psi memory monitors produce roughly 10x
less false positives compared to vmpressure signals. Having ability to
specify multiple triggers for the same psi metric allows other parts of
Android framework to monitor memory state of the device and act
accordingly.
The new interface is straightforward. The user opens one of the
pressure files for writing and writes a trigger description into the
file descriptor that defines the stall state - some or full, and the
maximum stall time over a given window of time. E.g.:
/* Signal when stall time exceeds 100ms of a 1s window */
char trigger[] = "full 100000 1000000";
fd = open("/proc/pressure/memory");
write(fd, trigger, sizeof(trigger));
while (poll() >= 0) {
...
}
close(fd);
When the monitored stall state is entered, psi adapts its aggregation
frequency according to what the configured time window requires in order
to emit event signals in a timely fashion. Once the stalling subsides,
aggregation reverts back to normal.
The trigger is associated with the open file descriptor. To stop
monitoring, the user only needs to close the file descriptor and the
trigger is discarded.
Patches 1-4 prepare the psi code for polling support. Patch 5
implements the adaptive polling logic, the pressure growth detection
optimized for short intervals, and hooks up write() and poll() on the
pressure files.
The patches were developed in collaboration with Johannes Weiner.
This patch (of 5):
Kernfs has a standardized poll/notification mechanism for waking all
pollers on all fds when a filesystem node changes. To allow polling for
custom events, add a .poll callback that can override the default.
This is in preparation for pollable cgroup pressure files which have
per-fd trigger configurations.

PG_balloon was introduced to implement page migration/compaction for
pages inflated in virtio-balloon. Nowadays, it is only a marker that a
page is part of virtio-balloon and therefore logically offline.
We also want to make use of this flag in other balloon drivers - for
inflated pages or when onlining a section but keeping some pages offline
(e.g. used right now by XEN and Hyper-V via set_online_page_callback()).
We are going to expose this flag to dump tools like makedumpfile. But
instead of exposing PG_balloon, let's generalize the concept of marking
pages as logically offline, so it can be reused for other purposes later
on.
Rename PG_balloon to PG_offline. This is an indicator that the page is
logically offline, the content stale and that it should not be touched
(e.g. a hypervisor would have to allocate backing storage in order for
the guest to dump an unused page). We can then e.g. exclude such pages
from dumps.
We replace and reuse KPF_BALLOON (23), as this shouldn't really harm
(and for now the semantics stay the same). In following patches, we
will make use of this bit also in other balloon drivers. While at it,
document PGTABLE.

It seems that commits 5f16f3225b and 00a1a053eb, both with same
commitlog ("ext4: atomically set inode->i_flags in ext4_set_inode_flags()")
introduced the set_mask_bits API, but somehow missed not using it in ext4
in the end.
Also, set_mask_bits() is used in fs quite a bit and we can possibly come
up with a generic llsc based implementation (w/o the cmpxchg loop)

Update the code to use a zero-sized array instead of a pointer in
structure ocfs2_slot_info and use struct_size() in kzalloc().
Notice that one of the more common cases of allocation size calculations
is finding the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the
end, along with memory for some number of elements for that array. For
example:
struct foo {
int stuff;
void *entry[];
};
instance = kzalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(void *) * count, GFP_KERNEL);
Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can
now use the new struct_size() helper:
instance = kzalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL);
This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

The user reported this problem, the upper application IO was timeout
when fstrim was running on this ocfs2 partition. the application
monitoring resource agent considered that this application did not work,
then this node was fenced by the cluster brain (e.g. pacemaker).
The root cause is that fstrim thread always holds main_bm meta-file
related locks until all the cluster groups are trimmed. This patch will
make fstrim thread release main_bm meta-file related locks when each
cluster group is trimmed, this will let the current application IO has a
chance to claim the clusters from main_bm meta-file.

In the process of creating a node, it will cause NULL pointer
dereference in kernel if o2cb_ctl failed in the interval (mkdir,
o2cb_set_node_attribute(node_num)] in function o2cb_add_node.
The node num is initialized to 0 in function o2nm_node_group_make_item,
o2nm_node_group_drop_item will mistake the node number 0 for a valid
node number when we delete the node before the node number is set
correctly. If the local node number of the current host happens to be
0, cluster->cl_local_node will be set to O2NM_INVALID_NODE_NUM while
o2hb_thread still running. The panic stack is generated as follows:
o2hb_thread
\-o2hb_do_disk_heartbeat
\-o2hb_check_own_slot
|-slot = ®->hr_slots[o2nm_this_node()];
//o2nm_this_node() return O2NM_INVALID_NODE_NUM
We need to check whether the node number is set when we delete the node.

We're (finally) phasing out a.out support for good. As Borislav Petkov
points out, we've supported ELF binaries for about 25 years by now, and
coredumping in particular has bitrotted over the years.
None of the tool chains even support generating a.out binaries any more,
and the plan is to deprecate a.out support entirely for the kernel. But
I want to start with just removing the core dumping code, because I can
still imagine that somebody actually might want to support a.out as a
simpler biinary format.
Particularly if you generate some random binaries on the fly, ELF is a
much more complicated format (admittedly ELF also does have a lot of
toolchain support, mitigating that complexity a lot and you really
should have moved over in the last 25 years).
So it's at least somewhat possible that somebody out there has some
workflow that still involves generating and running a.out executables.
In contrast, it's very unlikely that anybody depends on debugging any
legacy a.out core files. But regardless, I want this phase-out to be
done in two steps, so that we can resurrect a.out support (if needed)
without having to resurrect the core file dumping that is almost
certainly not needed.
Jann Horn pointed to the <asm/a.out-core.h> file that my first trivial
cut at this had missed.
And Alan Cox points out that the a.out binary loader _could_ be done in
user space if somebody wants to, but we might keep just the loader in
the kernel if somebody really wants it, since the loader isn't that big
and has no really odd special cases like the core dumping does.

The current implementation of splice() and tee() ignores O_NONBLOCK set
on pipe file descriptors and checks only the SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK flag for
blocking on pipe arguments. This is inconsistent since splice()-ing
from/to non-pipe file descriptors does take O_NONBLOCK into
consideration.
Fix this by promoting O_NONBLOCK, when set on a pipe, to
SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK.
Some context for how the current implementation of splice() leads to
inconsistent behavior. In the ongoing work[1] to add VM tracing
capability to trace-cmd we stream tracing data over named FIFOs or
vsockets from guests back to the host.
When we receive SIGINT from user to stop tracing, we set O_NONBLOCK on
the input file descriptor and set SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK for the next call to
splice(). If splice() was blocked waiting on data from the input FIFO,
after SIGINT splice() restarts with the same arguments (no
SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK) and blocks again instead of returning -EAGAIN when no
data is available.
This differs from the splice() behavior when reading from a vsocket or
when we're doing a traditional read()/write() loop (trace-cmd's
--nosplice argument).
With this patch applied we get the same behavior in all situations after
setting O_NONBLOCK which also matches the behavior of doing a
read()/write() loop instead of splice().
This change does have potential of breaking users who don't expect
EAGAIN from splice() when SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK is not set. OTOH programs
that set O_NONBLOCK and don't anticipate EAGAIN are arguably buggy[2].
