<id>urn:sha1:a862f68a8b360086f248cbc3606029441b5f5197</id>
<content type='text'>
Many kernel-doc comments in mm/ have the return value descriptions
either misformatted or omitted at all which makes kernel-doc script
unhappy:

$ make V=1 htmldocs
...
./mm/util.c:36: info: Scanning doc for kstrdup
./mm/util.c:41: warning: No description found for return value of 'kstrdup'
./mm/util.c:57: info: Scanning doc for kstrdup_const
./mm/util.c:66: warning: No description found for return value of 'kstrdup_const'
./mm/util.c:75: info: Scanning doc for kstrndup
./mm/util.c:83: warning: No description found for return value of 'kstrndup'
...

Fixing the formatting and adding the missing return value descriptions
eliminates ~100 such warnings.

<title>mm: cleancache: fix corruption on missed inode invalidation</title>

<id>urn:sha1:6ff38bd40230af35e446239396e5fc8ebd6a5248</id>
<content type='text'>
If all pages are deleted from the mapping by memory reclaim and also
moved to the cleancache:

__delete_from_page_cache
  (no shadow case)
  unaccount_page_cache_page
    cleancache_put_page
  page_cache_delete
    mapping-&gt;nrpages -= nr
    (nrpages becomes 0)

We don't clean the cleancache for an inode after final file truncation
(removal).

truncate_inode_pages_final
  check (nrpages || nrexceptional) is false
    no truncate_inode_pages
      no cleancache_invalidate_inode(mapping)

These way when reading the new file created with same inode we may get
these trash leftover pages from cleancache and see wrong data instead of
the contents of the new file.

Fix it by always doing truncate_inode_pages which is already ready for
nrpages == 0 &amp;&amp; nrexceptional == 0 case and just invalidates inode.

This is essentially xa_cmpxchg() with the locking handled above us,
and it doesn't have to handle replacing a NULL entry.

<content type='text'>
Introduce xarray value entries and tagged pointers to replace radix
tree exceptional entries.  This is a slight change in encoding to allow
the use of an extra bit (we can now store BITS_PER_LONG - 1 bits in a
value entry).  It is also a change in emphasis; exceptional entries are
intimidating and different.  As the comment explains, you can choose
to store values or pointers in the xarray and they are both first-class
citizens.

<content type='text'>
Several users of unmap_mapping_range() would prefer to express their
range in pages rather than bytes.  Unfortuately, on a 32-bit kernel, you
have to remember to cast your page number to a 64-bit type before
shifting it, and four places in the current tree didn't remember to do
that.  That's a sign of a bad interface.

Conveniently, unmap_mapping_range() actually converts from bytes into
pages, so hoist the guts of unmap_mapping_range() into a new function
unmap_mapping_pages() and convert the callers which want to use pages.

<title>mm, pagevec: remove cold parameter for pagevecs</title>

Every pagevec_init user claims the pages being released are hot even in
cases where it is unlikely the pages are hot.  As no one cares about the
hotness of pages being released to the allocator, just ditch the
parameter.

No performance impact is expected as the overhead is marginal.  The
parameter is removed simply because it is a bit stupid to have a useless
parameter copied everywhere.

<title>mm, truncate: remove all exceptional entries from pagevec under one lock</title>

During truncate each entry in a pagevec is checked to see if it is an
exceptional entry and if so, the shadow entry is cleaned up.  This is
potentially expensive as multiple entries for a mapping locks/unlocks
the tree lock.  This batches the operation such that any exceptional
entries removed from a pagevec only acquire the mapping tree lock once.
The corner case where this is more expensive is where there is only one
exceptional entry but this is unlikely due to temporal locality and how
it affects LRU ordering.  Note that for truncations of small files
created recently, this patch should show no gain because it only batches
the handling of exceptional entries.

During truncation, the mapping has already been checked for shmem and
dax so it's known that workingset_update_node is required.

This patch avoids the checks on mapping for each page being truncated.
In all other cases, a lookup helper is used to determine if
workingset_update_node() needs to be called.  The one danger is that the
API is slightly harder to use as calling workingset_update_node directly
without checking for dax or shmem mappings could lead to surprises.
However, the API rarely needs to be used and hopefully the comment is
enough to give people the hint.

As you'd expect, the gain is marginal but it can be detected.  The
differences in bonnie are all within the noise which is not surprising
given the impact on the microbenchmark.

radix_tree_update_node_t is a callback for some radix operations that
optionally passes in a private field.  The only user of the callback is
workingset_update_node and as it no longer requires a mapping, the
private field is removed.
