Pull configfs updates from Christoph Hellwig:
"I'm assisting Joel as co-maintainer and patch monkey now, and you will
see pull reuquests from me for a while.
Besides the MAINTAINERS update there is just a single change, which
adds support for binary attributes to configfs, which are very similar
to the sysfs binary attributes. Thanks to Pantelis Antoniou!
You will see another actually bigger set of configfs changes in the
SCSI target pull from Nic - those were merged before this new tree
even existed"
* tag 'configfs-for-linus' of git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/configfs:
configfs: add myself as co-maintainer, updated git tree
configfs: implement binary attributes
|
|
ConfigFS lacked binary attributes up until now. This patch
introduces support for binary attributes in a somewhat similar
manner of sysfs binary attributes albeit with changes that
fit the configfs usage model.
Problems that configfs binary attributes fix are everything that
requires a binary blob as part of the configuration of a resource,
such as bitstream loading for FPGAs, DTBs for dynamically created
devices etc.
Look at Documentation/filesystems/configfs/configfs.txt for internals
and howto use them.
This patch is against linux-next as of today that contains
Christoph's configfs rework.

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.

kmap() in page_follow_link_light() needed to go - allowing to hold
an arbitrary number of kmaps for long is a great way to deadlocking
the system.
new helper (inode_nohighmem(inode)) needs to be used for pagecache
symlinks inodes; done for all in-tree cases. page_follow_link_light()
instrumented to yell about anything missed.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending
Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
"This series contains HCH's changes to absorb configfs attribute
->show() + ->store() function pointer usage from it's original
tree-wide consumers, into common configfs code.
It includes usb-gadget, target w/ drivers, netconsole and ocfs2
changes to realize the improved simplicity, that now renders the
original include/target/configfs_macros.h CPP magic for fabric drivers
and others, unnecessary and obsolete.
And with common code in place, new configfs attributes can be added
easier than ever before.
Note, there are further improvements in-flight from other folks for
v4.5 code in configfs land, plus number of target fixes for post -rc1
code"
In the meantime, a new user of the now-removed old configfs API came in
through the char/misc tree in commit 7bd1d4093c2f ("stm class: Introduce
an abstraction for System Trace Module devices").
This merge resolution comes from Alexander Shishkin, who updated his stm
class tracing abstraction to account for the removal of the old
show_attribute and store_attribute methods in commit 517982229f78
("configfs: remove old API") from this pull. As Alexander says about
that patch:
"There's no need to keep an extra wrapper structure per item and the
awkward show_attribute/store_attribute item ops are no longer needed.
This patch converts policy code to the new api, all the while making
the code quite a bit smaller and easier on the eyes.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"Outside of the new ACPI-NFIT hot-add support this pull request is more
notable for what it does not contain, than what it does. There were a
handful of development topics this cycle, dax get_user_pages, dax
fsync, and raw block dax, that need more more iteration and will wait
for 4.5.
The patches to make devm and the pmem driver NUMA aware have been in
-next for several weeks. The hot-add support has not, but is
contained to the NFIT driver and is passing unit tests. The coredump
support is straightforward and was looked over by Jeff. All of it has
received a 0day build success notification across 107 configs.
Summary:
- Add support for the ACPI 6.0 NFIT hot add mechanism to process
updates of the NFIT at runtime.
- Teach the coredump implementation how to filter out DAX mappings.
- Introduce NUMA hints for allocations made by the pmem driver, and
as a side effect all devm allocations now hint their NUMA node by
default"

Add two new flags to the existing coredump mechanism for ELF files to
allow us to explicitly filter DAX mappings. This is desirable because
DAX mappings, like hugetlb mappings, have the potential to be very
large.
Update the coredump_filter documentation in
Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt so that it addresses the new DAX
coredump flags. Also update the documented default value of
coredump_filter to be consistent with the core(5) man page. The
documentation being updated talks about bit 4, Dump ELF headers, which
is enabled if CONFIG_CORE_DUMP_DEFAULT_ELF_HEADERS is turned on in the
kernel config. This kernel config option defaults to "y" if both ELF
binaries and coredump are enabled.

There's an odd line about "Locked" at the head of the description of
/proc/meminfo: it seems to have strayed from /proc/PID/smaps, so lead it
back there. Move "Swap" and "SwapPss" descriptions down above it, to
match the order in the file (though "PageSize"s still undescribed).
The example of "Locked: 374 kB" (the same as Pss, neither Rss nor Size) is
so unlikely as to be misleading: just make it 0, this is /bin/bash text;
which would be "dw" (disabled write) not "de" (do not expand).

Currently there's no easy way to get per-process usage of hugetlb pages,
which is inconvenient because userspace applications which use hugetlb
typically want to control their processes on the basis of how much memory
(including hugetlb) they use. So this patch simply provides easy access
to the info via /proc/PID/status.

gl_lockref lockref and defined gl_spin as gl_lockref.lock (the spinlock in
gl_lockref). Remove that define to make the references to gl_lockref.lock more
obvious.

A dhcp server may provide parameters to a client from a pool of IP
addresses and using a shared rootfs, or provide a specific set of
parameters for a specific client, usually using the MAC address to
identify each client individually. The dhcp protocol also specifies
a client-id field which can be used to determine the correct
parameters to supply when no MAC address is available. There is
currently no way to tell the kernel to supply a specific client-id,
only the userspace dhcp clients support this feature, but this can
not be used when the network is needed before userspace is available
such as when the root filesystem is on NFS.
This patch is to be able to do something like "ip=dhcp,client_id_type,
client_id_value", as a kernel parameter to enable the kernel to
identify itself to the server.

Its a bit odd that debugfs_create_bool() takes 'u32 *' as an argument,
when all it needs is a boolean pointer.
It would be better to update this API to make it accept 'bool *'
instead, as that will make it more consistent and often more convenient.
Over that bool takes just a byte.
That required updates to all user sites as well, in the same commit
updating the API. regmap core was also using
debugfs_{read|write}_file_bool(), directly and variable types were
updated for that to be bool as well.

So the /proc/PID/stat 'wchan' field (the 30th field, which contains
the absolute kernel address of the kernel function a task is blocked in)
leaks absolute kernel addresses to unprivileged user-space:
seq_put_decimal_ull(m, ' ', wchan);
The absolute address might also leak via /proc/PID/wchan as well, if
KALLSYMS is turned off or if the symbol lookup fails for some reason:
static int proc_pid_wchan(struct seq_file *m, struct pid_namespace *ns,
struct pid *pid, struct task_struct *task)
{
unsigned long wchan;
char symname[KSYM_NAME_LEN];
wchan = get_wchan(task);
if (lookup_symbol_name(wchan, symname) < 0) {
if (!ptrace_may_access(task, PTRACE_MODE_READ))
return 0;
seq_printf(m, "%lu", wchan);
} else {
seq_printf(m, "%s", symname);
}
return 0;
}
This isn't ideal, because for example it trivially leaks the KASLR offset
to any local attacker:
fomalhaut:~> printf "%016lx\n" $(cat /proc/$$/stat | cut -d' ' -f35)
ffffffff8123b380
Most real-life uses of wchan are symbolic:
ps -eo pid:10,tid:10,wchan:30,comm
and procps uses /proc/PID/wchan, not the absolute address in /proc/PID/stat:
triton:~/tip> strace -f ps -eo pid:10,tid:10,wchan:30,comm 2>&1 | grep wchan | tail -1
open("/proc/30833/wchan", O_RDONLY) = 6
There's one compatibility quirk here: procps relies on whether the
absolute value is non-zero - and we can provide that functionality
by outputing "0" or "1" depending on whether the task is blocked
(whether there's a wchan address).
These days there appears to be very little legitimate reason
user-space would be interested in the absolute address. The
absolute address is mostly historic: from the days when we
didn't have kallsyms and user-space procps had to do the
decoding itself via the System.map.
So this patch sets all numeric output to "0" or "1" and keeps only
symbolic output, in /proc/PID/wchan.
( The absolute sleep address can generally still be profiled via
perf, by tasks with sufficient privileges. )

We want to know per-process workingset size for smart memory management
on userland and we use swap(ex, zram) heavily to maximize memory
efficiency so workingset includes swap as well as RSS.
On such system, if there are lots of shared anonymous pages, it's really
hard to figure out exactly how many each process consumes memory(ie, rss
+ wap) if the system has lots of shared anonymous memory(e.g, android).
This patch introduces SwapPss field on /proc/<pid>/smaps so we can get
more exact workingset size per process.
Bongkyu tested it. Result is below.
1. 50M used swap

$ adb shell cat /proc/*/smaps | grep "SwapPss:" | awk '{sum += $2} END {print sum}';

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"This update has successfully completed a 0day-kbuild run and has
appeared in a linux-next release. The changes outside of the typical
drivers/nvdimm/ and drivers/acpi/nfit.[ch] paths are related to the
removal of IORESOURCE_CACHEABLE, the introduction of memremap(), and
the introduction of ZONE_DEVICE + devm_memremap_pages().
Summary:
- Introduce ZONE_DEVICE and devm_memremap_pages() as a generic
mechanism for adding device-driver-discovered memory regions to the
kernel's direct map.
This facility is used by the pmem driver to enable pfn_to_page()
operations on the page frames returned by DAX ('direct_access' in
'struct block_device_operations').
For now, the 'memmap' allocation for these "device" pages comes
from "System RAM". Support for allocating the memmap from device
memory will arrive in a later kernel.
- Introduce memremap() to replace usages of ioremap_cache() and
ioremap_wt(). memremap() drops the __iomem annotation for these
mappings to memory that do not have i/o side effects. The
replacement of ioremap_cache() with memremap() is limited to the
pmem driver to ease merging the api change in v4.3.
Completion of the conversion is targeted for v4.4.
- Similar to the usage of memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem() in the pmem
driver, update the VFS DAX implementation and PMEM api to provide
persistence guarantees for kernel operations on a DAX mapping.
- Convert the ACPI NFIT 'BLK' driver to map the block apertures as
cacheable to improve performance.
- Miscellaneous updates and fixes to libnvdimm including support for
issuing "address range scrub" commands, clarifying the optimal
'sector size' of pmem devices, a clarification of the usage of the
ACPI '_STA' (status) property for DIMM devices, and other minor
fixes"

The functionality of ext3 is fully supported by ext4 driver. Major
distributions (SUSE, RedHat) already use ext4 driver to handle ext3
filesystems for quite some time. There is some ugliness in mm resulting
from jbd cleaning buffers in a dirty page without cleaning page dirty
bit and also support for buffer bouncing in the block layer when stable
pages are required is there only because of jbd. So let's remove the
