<content type='text'>
With huge pages, it is convenient to have the radix tree be able to
return an entry that covers multiple indices.  Previous attempts to deal
with the problem have involved inserting N duplicate entries, which is a
waste of memory and leads to problems trying to handle aliased tags, or
probing the tree multiple times to find alternative entries which might
cover the requested index.

This approach inserts one canonical entry into the tree for a given
range of indices, and may also insert other entries in order to ensure
that lookups find the canonical entry.

This solution only tolerates inserting powers of two that are greater
than the fanout of the tree.  If we wish to expand the radix tree's
abilities to support large-ish pages that is less than the fanout at the
penultimate level of the tree, then we would need to add one more step
in lookup to ensure that any sibling nodes in the final level of the
tree are dereferenced and we return the canonical entry that they
reference.

When we introduce entries that can cover multiple indices, we will need
to stop in __radix_tree_create based on the shift, not the height.
Split out for ease of bisect.

Set the 'indirect_ptr' bit on all the pointers to internal nodes, not
just on the root node.  This enables the following patches to support
multi-order entries in the radix tree.  This patch is split out for ease
of bisection.

<title>radix-tree: account radix_tree_node to memory cgroup</title>

<id>urn:sha1:58e698af4c6347c726090d5480b2e51d1d07edf9</id>
<content type='text'>
Allocation of radix_tree_node objects can be easily triggered from
userspace, so we should account them to memory cgroup.  Besides, we need
them accounted for making shadow node shrinker per memcg (see
mm/workingset.c).

A tricky thing about accounting radix_tree_node objects is that they are
mostly allocated through radix_tree_preload(), so we can't just set
SLAB_ACCOUNT for radix_tree_node_cachep - that would likely result in a
lot of unrelated cgroups using objects from each other's caches.

One way to overcome this would be making radix tree preloads per memcg,
but that would probably look cumbersome and overcomplicated.

Instead, we make radix_tree_node_alloc() first try to allocate from the
cache with __GFP_ACCOUNT, no matter if the caller has preloaded or not,
and only if it fails fall back on using per cpu preloads.  This should
make most allocations accounted.

<title>radix-tree: fix race in gang lookup</title>

<content type='text'>
If the indirect_ptr bit is set on a slot, that indicates we need to redo
the lookup.  Introduce a new function radix_tree_iter_retry() which
forces the loop to retry the lookup by setting 'slot' to NULL and
turning the iterator back to point at the problematic entry.

This is a pretty rare problem to hit at the moment; the lookup has to
race with a grow of the radix tree from a height of 0.  The consequences
of hitting this race are that gang lookup could return a pointer to a
radix_tree_node instead of a pointer to whatever the user had inserted
in the tree.

<title>mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable to sleep, unwilling to sleep and avoiding waking kswapd</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d0164adc89f6bb374d304ffcc375c6d2652fe67d</id>
<content type='text'>
__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.

Currently we use per-cpu array to hold pointers to preallocated nodes.
Let's replace it with linked list.  On x86_64 it saves 256 bytes in
per-cpu ELF section which may translate into freeing up 2MB of memory for
NR_CPUS==8192.

<title>sched/preempt: Merge preempt_mask.h into preempt.h</title>

preempt_mask.h defines all the preempt_count semantics and related
symbols: preempt, softirq, hardirq, nmi, preempt active, need resched,
etc...

preempt.h defines the accessors and mutators of preempt_count.

But there is a messy dependency game around those two header files:

	* preempt_mask.h includes preempt.h in order to access preempt_count()

	* preempt_mask.h defines all preempt_count semantic and symbols
	  except PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED that is needed by asm/preempt.h
	  Thus we need to define it from preempt.h, right before including
	  asm/preempt.h, instead of defining it to preempt_mask.h with the
	  other preempt_count symbols. Therefore the preempt_count semantics
	  happen to be spread out.

	* We plan to introduce preempt_active_[enter,exit]() to consolidate
	  preempt_schedule*() code. But we'll need to access both preempt_count
	  mutators (preempt_count_add()) and preempt_count symbols
	  (PREEMPT_ACTIVE, PREEMPT_OFFSET). The usual place to define preempt
	  operations is in preempt.h but then we'll need symbols in
	  preempt_mask.h which already includes preempt.h. So we end up with
	  a ressource circle dependency.

Lets merge preempt_mask.h into preempt.h to solve these dependency issues.
This way we gather semantic symbols and operation definition of
preempt_count in a single file.

This is a dumb copy-paste merge. Further merge re-arrangments are
performed in a subsequent patch to ease review.

The comment helpfully explains why hardirq.h is included, but since
commit 2d4b84739f0a ("hardirq: Split preempt count mask definitions")
in_interrupt() has been provided by preempt_mask.h.  Use that instead,
saving around 40 lines in the generated dependency file.
