a0b8cab3b9 mm: remove lru parameter from __pagevec_lru_add and remove parts of pagevec API
Now that the LRU to add a page to is decided at LRU-add time, remove the
misleading lru parameter from __pagevec_lru_add.  A consequence of this
is that the pagevec_lru_add_file, pagevec_lru_add_anon and similar
helpers are misleading as the caller no longer has direct control over
what LRU the page is added to.  Unused helpers are removed by this patch
and existing users of pagevec_lru_add_file() are converted to use
lru_cache_add_file() directly and use the per-cpu pagevecs instead of
creating their own pagevec.

83086978c6 vmcore: support mmap() on /proc/vmcore
This patch introduces mmap_vmcore().

Don't permit writable nor executable mapping even with mprotect()
because this mmap() is aimed at reading crash dump memory.  Non-writable
mapping is also requirement of remap_pfn_range() when mapping linear
pages on non-consecutive physical pages; see is_cow_mapping().

Set VM_MIXEDMAP flag to remap memory by remap_pfn_range and by
remap_vmalloc_range_pertial at the same time for a single vma.
do_munmap() can correctly clean partially remapped vma with two
functions in abnormal case.  See zap_pte_range(), vm_normal_page() and
their comments for details.

On x86-32 PAE kernels, mmap() supports at most 16TB memory only.  This
limitation comes from the fact that the third argument of
remap_pfn_range(), pfn, is of 32-bit length on x86-32: unsigned long.

591ff71664 vmcore: calculate vmcore file size from buffer size and total size of vmcore objects
The previous patches newly added holes before each chunk of memory and
the holes need to be count in vmcore file size.  There are two ways to
count file size in such a way:

1) suppose m is a poitner to the last vmcore object in vmcore_list.
   Then file size is (m->offset + m->size), or

2) calculate sum of size of buffers for ELF header, program headers,
   ELF note segments and objects in vmcore_list.

Although 1) is more direct and simpler than 2), 2) seems better in that
it reflects internal object structure of /proc/vmcore.  Thus, this patch
changes get_vmcore_size_elf{64, 32} so that it calculates size in the
way of 2).

As a result, both get_vmcore_size_elf{64, 32} have the same definition.
Merge them as get_vmcore_size.

087350c9dc vmcore: allocate ELF note segment in the 2nd kernel vmalloc memory
The reasons why we don't allocate ELF note segment in the 1st kernel
(old memory) on page boundary is to keep backward compatibility for old
kernels, and that if doing so, we waste not a little memory due to
round-up operation to fit the memory to page boundary since most of the
buffers are in per-cpu area.

ELF notes are per-cpu, so total size of ELF note segments depends on
number of CPUs.  The current maximum number of CPUs on x86_64 is 5192,
and there's already system with 4192 CPUs in SGI, where total size
amounts to 1MB.  This can be larger in the near future or possibly even
now on another architecture that has larger size of note per a single
cpu.  Thus, to avoid the case where memory allocation for large block
fails, we allocate vmcore objects on vmalloc memory.

This patch adds elfnotes_buf and elfnotes_sz variables to keep pointer
to the ELF note segment buffer and its size.  There's no longer the
vmcore object that corresponds to the ELF note segment in vmcore_list.
Accordingly, read_vmcore() has new case for ELF note segment and
set_vmcore_list_offsets_elf{64,32}() and other helper functions starts
calculating offset from sum of size of ELF headers and size of ELF note
segment.

7f614cd1e0 vmcore: treat memory chunks referenced by PT_LOAD program header entries in page-size boundary in vmcore_list
Treat memory chunks referenced by PT_LOAD program header entries in
page-size boundary in vmcore_list.  Formally, for each range [start,
end], we set up the corresponding vmcore object in vmcore_list to
[rounddown(start, PAGE_SIZE), roundup(end, PAGE_SIZE)].

This change affects layout of /proc/vmcore.  The gaps generated by the
rearrangement are newly made visible to applications as holes.
Concretely, they are two ranges [rounddown(start, PAGE_SIZE), start] and
[end, roundup(end, PAGE_SIZE)].

Suppose variable m points at a vmcore object in vmcore_list, and
variable phdr points at the program header of PT_LOAD type the variable
m corresponds to.  Then, pictorially:

  m->offset                    +---------------+
                               | hole          |
phdr->p_offset =               +---------------+
  m->offset + (paddr - start)  |               |\
                               | kernel memory | phdr->p_memsz
                               |               |/
                               +---------------+
                               | hole          |
  m->offset + m->size          +---------------+

where m->offset and m->offset + m->size are always page-size aligned.

f2bdacdd59 vmcore: allocate buffer for ELF headers on page-size alignment
Allocate ELF headers on page-size boundary using __get_free_pages()
instead of kmalloc().

Later patch will merge PT_NOTE entries into a single unique one and
decrease the buffer size actually used.  Keep original buffer size in
variable elfcorebuf_sz_orig to kfree the buffer later and actually used
buffer size with rounded up to page-size boundary in variable
elfcorebuf_sz separately.

The size of part of the ELF buffer exported from /proc/vmcore is
elfcorebuf_sz.

The merged, removed PT_NOTE entries, i.e.  the range [elfcorebuf_sz,
elfcorebuf_sz_orig], is filled with 0.

Use size of the ELF headers as an initial offset value in
set_vmcore_list_offsets_elf{64,32} and
process_ptload_program_headers_elf{64,32} in order to indicate that the
offset includes the holes towards the page boundary.

As a result, both set_vmcore_list_offsets_elf{64,32} have the same
definition.  Merge them as set_vmcore_list_offsets.

f919b19614 fs: nfs: inform the VM about pages being committed or unstable
VM page reclaim uses dirty and writeback page states to determine if
flushers are cleaning pages too slowly and that page reclaim should
stall waiting on flushers to catch up.  Page state in NFS is a bit more
complex and a clean page can be unreclaimable due to being unstable
which is effectively "dirty" from the perspective of the VM from reclaim
context.  Similarly, if the inode is currently being committed then it's
similar to being under writeback.

This patch adds a is_dirty_writeback() handled for NFS that checks if a
pages backing inode is being committed and should be accounted as
writeback and if a page has private state indicating that it is
effectively dirty.

b45972265f mm: vmscan: take page buffers dirty and locked state into account
Page reclaim keeps track of dirty and under writeback pages and uses it
to determine if wait_iff_congested() should stall or if kswapd should
begin writing back pages.  This fails to account for buffer pages that
can be under writeback but not PageWriteback which is the case for
filesystems like ext3 ordered mode.  Furthermore, PageDirty buffer pages
can have all the buffers clean and writepage does no IO so it should not
be accounted as congested.

This patch adds an address_space operation that filesystems may
optionally use to check if a page is really dirty or really under
writeback.  An implementation is provided for for buffer_heads is added
and used for block operations and ext3 in ordered mode.  By default the
page flags are obeyed.

Credit goes to Jan Kara for identifying that the page flags alone are
not sufficient for ext3 and sanity checking a number of ideas on how the
problem could be addressed.

541c237c09 pagemap: prepare to reuse constant bits with page-shift
In order to reuse bits from pagemap entries gracefully, we leave the
entries as is but on pagemap open emit a warning in dmesg, that bits
55-60 are about to change in a couple of releases.  Next, if a user
issues soft-dirty clear command via the clear_refs file (it was disabled
before v3.9) we assume that he's aware of the new pagemap format, note
that fact and report the bits in pagemap in the new manner.

The "migration strategy" looks like this then:

1. existing users are not affected -- they don't touch soft-dirty feature, thus
   see old bits in pagemap, but are warned and have time to fix themselves
2. those who use soft-dirty know about new pagemap format
3. some time soon we get rid of any signs of page-shift in pagemap as well as
   this trick with clear-soft-dirty affecting pagemap format.

0f8975ec4d mm: soft-dirty bits for user memory changes tracking
The soft-dirty is a bit on a PTE which helps to track which pages a task
writes to.  In order to do this tracking one should

  1. Clear soft-dirty bits from PTEs ("echo 4 > /proc/PID/clear_refs)
  2. Wait some time.
  3. Read soft-dirty bits (55'th in /proc/PID/pagemap2 entries)

To do this tracking, the writable bit is cleared from PTEs when the
soft-dirty bit is.  Thus, after this, when the task tries to modify a
page at some virtual address the #PF occurs and the kernel sets the
soft-dirty bit on the respective PTE.

Note, that although all the task's address space is marked as r/o after
the soft-dirty bits clear, the #PF-s that occur after that are processed
fast.  This is so, since the pages are still mapped to physical memory,
and thus all the kernel does is finds this fact out and puts back
writable, dirty and soft-dirty bits on the PTE.

Another thing to note, is that when mremap moves PTEs they are marked
with soft-dirty as well, since from the user perspective mremap modifies
the virtual memory at mremap's new address.

040fa02077 clear_refs: sanitize accepted commands declaration
This is the implementation of the soft-dirty bit concept that should
help keep track of changes in user memory, which in turn is very-very
required by the checkpoint-restore project (http://criu.org).

To create a dump of an application(s) we save all the information about
it to files, and the biggest part of such dump is the contents of tasks'
memory.  However, there are usage scenarios where it's not required to
get _all_ the task memory while creating a dump.  For example, when
doing periodical dumps, it's only required to take full memory dump only
at the first step and then take incremental changes of memory.  Another
example is live migration.  We copy all the memory to the destination
node without stopping all tasks, then stop them, check for what pages
has changed, dump it and the rest of the state, then copy it to the
destination node.  This decreases freeze time significantly.

That said, some help from kernel to watch how processes modify the
contents of their memory is required.

The proposal is to track changes with the help of new soft-dirty bit
this way:

1. First do "echo 4 > /proc/$pid/clear_refs".
   At that point kernel clears the soft dirty _and_ the writable bits from all
   ptes of process $pid. From now on every write to any page will result in #pf
   and the subsequent call to pte_mkdirty/pmd_mkdirty, which in turn will set
   the soft dirty flag.

2. Then read the /proc/$pid/pagemap2 and check the soft-dirty bit reported there
   (the 55'th one). If set, the respective pte was written to since last call
   to clear refs.

The soft-dirty bit is the _PAGE_BIT_HIDDEN one.  Although it's used by
kmemcheck, the latter one marks kernel pages with it, while the former
bit is put on user pages so they do not conflict to each other.

This patch:

A new clear-refs type will be added in the next patch, so prepare
code for that.

                                    begin mounting, call
                                    o2hb_region_pin() and tranverse all
                                    regions. When reading

  call o2hb_region_release() and
  del reg(A) from list.

So we should skip accessing regions that is going to release when

e873fdb525 ocfs2: submit disk heartbeat bio using WRITE_SYNC
Under heavy I/O load, writing the disk heartbeat can be forced to wait for

This patch tries to use WRITE_SYNC in submitting the heartbeat bio, so
that writing the heartbeat will have a priority over other requests.

ef962df057 ocfs2: xattr: fix inlined xattr reflink
Inlined xattr shared free space of inode block with inlined data or data
extent record, so the size of the later two should be adjusted when
inlined xattr is enabled.  See ocfs2_xattr_ibody_init().  But this isn't
done well when reflink.  For inode with inlined data, its max inlined
data size is adjusted in ocfs2_duplicate_inline_data(), no problem.  But
for inode with data extent record, its record count isn't adjusted.  Fix
it, or data extent record and inlined xattr may overwrite each other,
then cause data corruption or xattr failure.

One panic caused by this bug in our test environment is the following:

b5a8bb717e ocfs2: fix readonly issue in ocfs2_unlink()
While deleting a file with ocfs2_unlink(), there is a bug in this
function.  This bug will result in filesystem read-only.

After calling ocfs2_orphan_add(), the file which will be deleted is
added into orphan dir.  If ocfs2_delete_entry() fails, the file still
exists in the parent dir.  And this scenario introduces a conflict of
metadata.

If a file is added into orphan dir, when we put inode of the file with
iput(), the inode i_flags is setted (~OCFS2_VALID_FL) in
ocfs2_remove_inode(), and then write back to disk.

But as previously mentioned, the file still exists in the parent dir.
On other nodes, the file can be still accessed.  When first read the
file with ocfs2_read_blocks() from disk, It will check and avalidate
inode using ocfs2_validate_inode_block().  So File system will be
readonly because the inode is invalid.  In other words, the inode
i_flags has been set (~OCFS2_VALID_FL).

493098413b ocfs2: rework transaction rollback in ocfs2_relink_block_group()
In ocfs2_relink_block_group(), we roll back all those changes if notify
intent to modify buffers for metadata update failed even if the relevant
buffer has not yet been modified/got dirty at that point, that are not
quite right because of:

 - None buffer has been modified/dirty if failed to call
   ocfs2_journal_access_gd() against the previous block group buffer

 - Only the previous block group buffer has got dirty if failed to call
   ocfs2_journal_access_gd() against the block group buffer

 - There is no need to roll back the change for file entry buffer at all

Those problems will not cause anything wrong but unnecessary.  This
patch fix them and kill the useless bg_ptr variable as well.

ea45466aec ocfs2: need rollback when journal_access failed in ocfs2_orphan_add()
While adding a file into orphan dir in ocfs2_orphan_add(), it calls
__ocfs2_add_entry() before ocfs2_journal_access_di().  If
ocfs2_journal_access_di() failed, the file is added into orphan dir, and
orphan dir dinode updated, but file dinode has not been updated.
Accordingly, the data is not consistent between file dinode and orphan
dir.

So, need to call ocfs2_journal_access_di() before __ocfs2_add_entry(),
and if ocfs2_journal_access_di() failed, orphan_fe and
orphan_dir_inode->i_nlink need rollback.

This bug was added by 3939fda4 ("Ocfs2: Journaling i_flags and
i_orphaned_slot when adding inode to orphan dir.").

096b2ef83c ocfs2: dlmlock_master() should return DLM_NORMAL after adding lock to blocked list
dlmlock_master() returns DLM_RECOVERING/DLM_MIGRATING/ DLM_FORWAR after
adding lock to blocked list if lockres has the state
DLM_LOCK_RES_RECOVERING/DLM_LOCK_RES_MIGRATING/ DLM_LOCK_RES_IN_PROGRESS.
so it will retry in dlmlock().  And this may cause dlm_thread fall into an
infinite loop

	Thread1                                  dlm_thread

  calls dlm_lock->dlmlock_master,
  if lockresA is in state
  DLM_LOCK_RES_RECOVERING, calls
  __dlm_wait_on_lockres() and waits
  until others threads clear this
  state;

  If cannot grant this lock,
  adding lock to blocked list,
  and return DLM_RECOVERING;

                                        Grant this lock and move it to
                                        grant list;

  After a while, retry and
  calls list_add_tail(), adding lock
  to blocked list again.

Granted and blocked list of this lockres will become the following
conditions:

    lock_res->granted.next = dlm_lock->list_head;
    lock_res->blocked.next = dlm_lock->list_head;
    dlm_lock->list_head.next = dlm_lock_resource->blocked;

When dlm_thread traverses the granted list, it will fall into an endless
loop, checking dlm_lock.list_head, dlm_lock->list_head.next
(i.e.lock_res->blocked), lock_res->blocked.next(i.e.dlm_lock.list_head
again) .....

46a1c2c7ae vfs: export lseek_execute() to modules
For those file systems(btrfs/ext4/ocfs2/tmpfs) that support
SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE functions, we end up handling the similar
matter in lseek_execute() to update the current file offset
to the desired offset if it is valid, ceph also does the
simliar things at ceph_llseek().

To reduce the duplications, this patch make lseek_execute()
public accessible so that we can call it directly from the
underlying file systems.

Thanks Dave Chinner for this suggestion.

[AV: call it vfs_setpos(), don't bring the removed 'inode' argument back]

- Add kernel-doc comments for lseek_execute()

fc76a258d4 Driver core patches for 3.11-rc1
Here's the big driver core merge for 3.11-rc1
 
 Lots of little things, and larger firmware subsystem updates, all
 described in the shortlog.  Nice thing here is that we finally get rid
 of CONFIG_HOTPLUG, after 10+ years, thanks to Stephen Rohtwell (it had
 been always on for a number of kernel releases, now it's just removed.)

 block size is smaller than the page size (i.e., file systems 1k blocks
 on x86, or more interestingly file systems with 4k blocks on Power or
 ia64 systems.)
 
 In the cleanup category, the ext4's punch hole implementation was
 significantly improved by Lukas Czerner, and now supports bigalloc
 file systems.  In addition, Jan Kara significantly cleaned up the
 write submission code path.  We also improved error checking and added
 a few sanity checks.
 
 In the optimizations category, two major optimizations deserve
 mention.  The first is that ext4_writepages() is now used for
 nodelalloc and ext3 compatibility mode.  This allows writes to be
 submitted much more efficiently as a single bio request, instead of
 being sent as individual 4k writes into the block layer (which then
 relied on the elevator code to coalesce the requests in the block
 queue).  Secondly, the extent cache shrink mechanism, which was
 introduce in 3.9, no longer has a scalability bottleneck caused by the
 i_es_lru spinlock.  Other optimizations include some changes to reduce
 CPU usage and to avoid issuing empty commits unnecessarily.

7747bd4bce sync: don't block the flusher thread waiting on IO
When sync does it's WB_SYNC_ALL writeback, it issues data Io and
then immediately waits for IO completion. This is done in the
context of the flusher thread, and hence completely ties up the
flusher thread for the backing device until all the dirty inodes
have been synced. On filesystems that are dirtying inodes constantly
and quickly, this means the flusher thread can be tied up for
minutes per sync call and hence badly affect system level write IO
performance as the page cache cannot be cleaned quickly.

We already have a wait loop for IO completion for sync(2), so cut
this out of the flusher thread and delegate it to wait_sb_inodes().
Hence we can do rapid IO submission, and then wait for it all to
complete.

Effect of sync on fsmark before the patch:

FSUse%        Count         Size    Files/sec     App Overhead
.....
     0       640000         4096      35154.6          1026984
     0       720000         4096      36740.3          1023844

     0       880000         4096       1282.7          1054367
     0       960000         4096       3951.3           918773

     0      1200000         4096      40333.1           921048

And a single sync pass took:

  real    0m52.407s
  user    0m0.000s
  sys     0m0.090s

After the patch, there is no impact on fsmark results, and each
individual sync(2) operation run concurrently with the same fsmark
workload takes roughly 7s:

  real    0m6.930s
  user    0m0.000s
  sys     0m0.039s

IOWs, sync is 7-8x faster on a busy filesystem and does not have an
adverse impact on ongoing async data write operations.

a1dd3c13ce f2fs: fix to recover i_size from roll-forward
If user requests many data writes and fsync together, the last updated i_size
should be stored to the inode block consistently.

But, previous write_end just marks the inode as dirty and doesn't update its
metadata into its inode block.
After that, fsync just writes the inode block with newly updated data index
excluding inode metadata updates.
