Currently, block device inodes stay around after corresponding gendisk
hash died until memory reclaim finds them and frees them. Since we will
make block device inode pin the bdi, we want to free the block device
inode as soon as the device goes away so that bdi does not stay around
unnecessarily. Furthermore we need to avoid issues when new device with
the same major,minor pair gets created since reusing the bdi structure
would be rather difficult in this case.
Unhashing block device inode on gendisk destruction nicely deals with
these problems. Once last block device inode reference is dropped (which
may be directly in del_gendisk()), the inode gets evicted. Furthermore if
the major,minor pair gets reallocated, we are guaranteed to get new
block device inode even if old block device inode is not yet evicted and
thus we avoid issues with possible reuse of bdi.

Since we removed cmd_type, we now have a hole in the struct. Move
the internal_tag member to the same cacheline as tag, since we
use them at the same time.
This doesn't fix the hole, just moves it elsewhere.

Instead of keeping two levels of indirection for requests types, fold it
all into the operations. The little caveat here is that previously
cmd_type only applied to struct request, while the request and bio op
fields were set to plain REQ_OP_READ/WRITE even for passthrough
operations.
Instead this patch adds new REQ_OP_* for SCSI passthrough and driver
private requests, althought it has to add two for each so that we
can communicate the data in/out nature of the request.

Currently the legacy ide driver defines several request types of it's own,
which is in the way of removing that field entirely.
Instead add a type field to struct ide_request and use that to distinguish
the different types of IDE-internal requests.
It's a bit of a mess, but so is the surrounding code..

And require all drivers that want to support BLOCK_PC to allocate it
as the first thing of their private data. To support this the legacy

DM already calls blk_mq_alloc_request on the request_queue of the
underlying device if it is a blk-mq device. But now that we allow drivers
to allocate additional data and initialize it ahead of time we need to do
the same for all drivers. Doing so and using the new cmd_size
infrastructure in the block layer greatly simplifies the dm-rq and mpath
code, and should also make arbitrary combinations of SQ and MQ devices
with SQ or MQ device mapper tables easily possible as a further step.

A couple tweaks to the tracing code:
- trace the request size for all requests
- trace request sector and nr_sectors only for fs requests, enforced by
helpers
- drop SCSI CDB tracing - we have SCSI tracing for this and are going
to me the CDB out of the generic struct request soon.
With this the tracing code stops to know about BLOCK_PC requests entirely,
it's just FS vs passthrough requests now, where the latter includes any
driver-private requests.

Return an errno value instead of the passed in queue so that the callers
don't have to keep track of two queues, and move the assignment of the

When we invoke dispatch_requests(), the scheduler empties everything
into the passed in list. This isn't always a good thing, since it
means that we remove items that we could have potentially merged
with.
Change the function to dispatch single requests at the time. If
we do that, we can backoff exactly at the point where the device
can't consume more IO, and leave the rest with the scheduler for
better merging and future dispatch decision making.

If we have both multiple hardware queues and shared tag map between
devices, we need to ensure that we propagate the hardware queue
restart bit higher up. This is because we can get into a situation
where we don't have any IO pending on a hardware queue, yet we fail
getting a tag to start new IO. If that happens, it's not enough to
mark the hardware queue as needing a restart, we need to bubble
that up to the higher level queue as well.

Pull SMP hotplug update from Thomas Gleixner:
"This contains a trivial typo fix and an extension to the core code for
dynamically allocating states in the prepare stage.
The extension is necessary right now because we need a proper way to
unbreak LTTNG, which iscurrently non functional due to the removal of
the notifiers. Surely it's out of tree, but it's widely used by
distros.
The simple solution would have been to reserve a state for LTTNG, but
I'm not fond about unused crap in the kernel and the dynamic range,
which we admittedly should have done right away, allows us to remove
quite some of the hardcoded states, i.e. those which have no ordering
requirements. So doing the right thing now is better than having an
smaller intermediate solution which needs to be reworked anyway"

Commit 7bd509e311f4 ("bpf: add prog_digest and expose it via
fdinfo/netlink") was recently discussed, partially due to
admittedly suboptimal name of "prog_digest" in combination
with sha1 hash usage, thus inevitably and rightfully concerns
about its security in terms of collision resistance were
raised with regards to use-cases.
The intended use cases are for debugging resp. introspection
only for providing a stable "tag" over the instruction sequence
that both kernel and user space can calculate independently.
It's not usable at all for making a security relevant decision.
So collisions where two different instruction sequences generate
the same tag can happen, but ideally at a rather low rate. The
"tag" will be dumped in hex and is short enough to introspect
in tracepoints or kallsyms output along with other data such
as stack trace, etc. Thus, this patch performs a rename into
prog_tag and truncates the tag to a short output (64 bits) to
make it obvious it's not collision-free.
Should in future a hash or facility be needed with a security
relevant focus, then we can think about requirements, constraints,
etc that would fit to that situation. For now, rework the exposed
parts for the current use cases as long as nothing has been
released yet. Tested on x86_64 and s390x.

Mathieu reported that the LTTNG modules are broken as of 4.10-rc1 due to
the removal of the cpu hotplug notifiers.
Usually I don't care much about out of tree modules, but LTTNG is widely
used in distros. There are two ways to solve that:
1) Reserve a hotplug state for LTTNG
2) Add a dynamic range for the prepare states.
While #1 is the simplest solution, #2 is the proper one as we can convert
in tree users, which do not care about ordering, to the dynamic range as
well.
Add a dynamic range which allows LTTNG to request states in the prepare
stage.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into rcu/urgent
Pull an urgent RCU fix from Paul E. McKenney:
"This series contains a pair of commits that permit RCU synchronous grace
periods (synchronize_rcu() and friends) to work correctly throughout boot.
This eliminates the current "dead time" starting when the scheduler spawns
its first taks and ending when the last of RCU's kthreads is spawned
(this last happens during early_initcall() time). Although RCU's
synchronous grace periods have long been documented as not working
during this time, prior to 4.9, the expedited grace periods worked by
accident, and some ACPI code came to rely on this unintentional behavior.
(Note that this unintentional behavior was -not- reliable. For example,
failures from ACPI could occur on !SMP systems and on systems booting
with the rcu_normal kernel boot parameter.)
Either way, there is a bug that needs fixing, and the 4.9 switch of RCU's
expedited grace periods to workqueues could be considered to have caused
a regression. This series therefore makes RCU's expedited grace periods
operate correctly throughout the boot process. This has been demonstrated
to fix the problems ACPI was encountering, and has the added longer-term
benefit of simplifying RCU's behavior."

The current preemptible RCU implementation goes through three phases
during bootup. In the first phase, there is only one CPU that is running
with preemption disabled, so that a no-op is a synchronous grace period.
In the second mid-boot phase, the scheduler is running, but RCU has
not yet gotten its kthreads spawned (and, for expedited grace periods,
workqueues are not yet running. During this time, any attempt to do
a synchronous grace period will hang the system (or complain bitterly,
depending). In the third and final phase, RCU is fully operational and
everything works normally.
This has been OK for some time, but there has recently been some
synchronous grace periods showing up during the second mid-boot phase.
This code worked "by accident" for awhile, but started failing as soon
as expedited RCU grace periods switched over to workqueues in commit
8b355e3bc140 ("rcu: Drive expedited grace periods from workqueue").
Note that the code was buggy even before this commit, as it was subject
to failure on real-time systems that forced all expedited grace periods
to run as normal grace periods (for example, using the rcu_normal ksysfs
parameter). The callchain from the failure case is as follows:
early_amd_iommu_init()
|-> acpi_put_table(ivrs_base);
|-> acpi_tb_put_table(table_desc);
|-> acpi_tb_invalidate_table(table_desc);
|-> acpi_tb_release_table(...)
|-> acpi_os_unmap_memory
|-> acpi_os_unmap_iomem
|-> acpi_os_map_cleanup
|-> synchronize_rcu_expedited
The kernel showing this callchain was built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y,
which caused the code to try using workqueues before they were
initialized, which did not go well.
This commit therefore reworks RCU to permit synchronous grace periods
to proceed during this mid-boot phase. This commit is therefore a
fix to a regression introduced in v4.9, and is therefore being put
forward post-merge-window in v4.10.
This commit sets a flag from the existing rcu_scheduler_starting()
function which causes all synchronous grace periods to take the expedited
path. The expedited path now checks this flag, using the requesting task
to drive the expedited grace period forward during the mid-boot phase.
Finally, this flag is updated by a core_initcall() function named
rcu_exp_runtime_mode(), which causes the runtime codepaths to be used.
Note that this arrangement assumes that tasks are not sent POSIX signals
(or anything similar) from the time that the first task is spawned
through core_initcall() time.

If the last section of a core file ends with an unmapped or zero page,
the size of the file does not correspond with the last dump_skip() call.
gdb complains that the file is truncated and can be confusing to users.
After all of the vma sections are written, make sure that the file size
is no smaller than the current file position.
This problem can be demonstrated with gdb's bigcore testcase on the
sparc architecture.

Some machines, such as the Lenovo ThinkPad W541 with firmware GNET80WW
(2.28), include memory map entries with phys_addr=0x0 and num_pages=0.
These machines fail to boot after the following commit,
commit 8e80632fb23f ("efi/esrt: Use efi_mem_reserve() and avoid a kmalloc()")
Fix this by removing such bogus entries from the memory map.
Furthermore, currently the log output for this case (with efi=debug)
looks like:
[ 0.000000] efi: mem45: [Reserved | | | | | | | | | | | | ] range=[0x0000000000000000-0xffffffffffffffff] (0MB)
This is clearly wrong, and also not as informative as it could be. This
patch changes it so that if we find obviously invalid memory map
entries, we print an error and skip those entries. It also detects the
display of the address range calculation overflow, so the new output is:
[ 0.000000] efi: [Firmware Bug]: Invalid EFI memory map entries:
[ 0.000000] efi: mem45: [Reserved | | | | | | | | | | | | ] range=[0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000000000] (invalid)
It also detects memory map sizes that would overflow the physical
address, for example phys_addr=0xfffffffffffff000 and
num_pages=0x0200000000000001, and prints:
[ 0.000000] efi: [Firmware Bug]: Invalid EFI memory map entries:
[ 0.000000] efi: mem45: [Reserved | | | | | | | | | | | | ] range=[phys_addr=0xfffffffffffff000-0x20ffffffffffffffff] (invalid)
It then removes these entries from the memory map.

It's possible to set up PEBS events to get only errors and not
any data, like on SNB-X (model 45) and IVB-EP (model 62)
via 2 perf commands running simultaneously:
taskset -c 1 ./perf record -c 4 -e branches:pp -j any -C 10
This leads to a soft lock up, because the error path of the
intel_pmu_drain_pebs_nhm() does not account event->hw.interrupt
for error PEBS interrupts, so in case you're getting ONLY
errors you don't have a way to stop the event when it's over
the max_samples_per_tick limit:
NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#22 stuck for 22s! [perf_fuzzer:5816]
...
RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff81159232>] [<ffffffff81159232>] smp_call_function_single+0xe2/0x140
...
Call Trace:
? trace_hardirqs_on_caller+0xf5/0x1b0
? perf_cgroup_attach+0x70/0x70

Add perf_event_account_interrupt() which does the interrupt
and frequency checks and call it from intel_pmu_drain_pebs_nhm()'s
error path.
We keep the pending_kill and pending_wakeup logic only in the
__perf_event_overflow() path, because they make sense only if
there's any data to deliver.

other buggy modules!)
- two NULL pointer dereferences from syzkaller
- also syzkaller: fix emulation of fxsave/fxrstor/sgdt/sidt, problem
made worse during this merge window, "just" kernel memory leak on
releases
- fix emulation of "mov ss" - somewhat serious on AMD, less so on Intel

Fix up a data alignment issue on sparc by swapping the order
of the cookie byte array field with the length field in
struct tcp_fastopen_cookie, and making it a proper union
to clean up the typecasting.

The inet6addr_chain is an atomic notifier chain, so we can't call
anything that might sleep (like lock_sock)... instead of closing the
socket from svc_age_temp_xprts_now (which is called by the notifier
function), just have the rpc service threads do it instead.

Falling back unconditionally to HostNotify as primary client's interrupt
breaks some drivers which alter their functionality depending on whether
interrupt is present or not, so let's introduce a board flag telling I2C
core explicitly if we want wired interrupt or HostNotify-based one:
I2C_CLIENT_HOST_NOTIFY.
For DT-based systems we introduce "host-notify" property that we convert
to I2C_CLIENT_HOST_NOTIFY board flag.

All block device data fields and functions returning a number of 512B
sectors are by convention named xxx_sectors while names in the form
xxx_size are generally used for a number of bytes. The blk_queue_zone_size
and bdev_zone_size functions were not following this convention so rename
them.
No functional change is introduced by this patch.

If the last bvec of the 1st bio and the 1st bvec of the next
bio are physically contigious, and the latter can be merged
to last segment of the 1st bio, we should think they don't
violate sg gap(or virt boundary) limit.
Both Vitaly and Dexuan reported lots of unmergeable small bios
are observed when running mkfs on Hyper-V virtual storage, and
performance becomes quite low. This patch fixes that performance
issue.
The same issue should exist on NVMe, since it sets virt boundary too.
