hugepage migration relies on __alloc_buddy_huge_page to get a new page.
This has 2 main disadvantages.
1) it doesn't allow to migrate any huge page if the pool is used
completely which is not an exceptional case as the pool is static and
unused memory is just wasted.
2) it leads to a weird semantic when migration between two numa nodes
might increase the pool size of the destination NUMA node while the
page is in use. The issue is caused by per NUMA node surplus pages
tracking (see free_huge_page).
Address both issues by changing the way how we allocate and account
pages allocated for migration. Those should temporal by definition. So
we mark them that way (we will abuse page flags in the 3rd page) and
update free_huge_page to free such pages to the page allocator. Page
migration path then just transfers the temporal status from the new page
to the old one which will be freed on the last reference. The global
surplus count will never change during this path but we still have to be
careful when migrating a per-node suprlus page. This is now handled in
move_hugetlb_state which is called from the migration path and it copies
the hugetlb specific page state and fixes up the accounting when needed
Rename __alloc_buddy_huge_page to __alloc_surplus_huge_page to better
reflect its purpose. The new allocation routine for the migration path
is __alloc_migrate_huge_page.
The user visible effect of this patch is that migrated pages are really
temporal and they travel between NUMA nodes as per the migration
request:

with the previous implementation, both nodes would have nr_hugepages:1

mem_map pointer
The comment is confusing. On the one hand, it refers to 32-bit
alignment (struct page alignment on 32-bit platforms), but this would
only guarantee that the 2 lowest bits must be zero. On the other hand,
it claims that at least 3 bits are available, and 3 bits are actually
used.
This is not broken, because there is a stronger alignment guarantee,
just less obvious. Let's fix the comment to make it clear how many bits
are available and why.
Although memmap arrays are allocated in various places, the resulting
pointer is encoded eventually, so I am adding a BUG_ON() here to enforce
at runtime that all expected bits are indeed available.
I have also added a BUILD_BUG_ON to check that PFN_SECTION_SHIFT is
sufficient, because this part of the calculation can be easily checked
at build time.

We waste sizeof(swp_entry_t) for zswap header when using zsmalloc as
zpool driver because zsmalloc doesn't support eviction.
Add zpool_evictable() to detect if zpool is potentially evictable, and
use it in zswap to avoid waste memory for zswap header.

Implements memfd sealing, similar to shmem:
- WRITE: deny fallocate(PUNCH_HOLE). mmap() write is denied in
memfd_add_seals(). write() doesn't exist for hugetlbfs.
- SHRINK: added similar check as shmem_setattr()
- GROW: added similar check as shmem_setattr() & shmem_fallocate()
Except write() operation that doesn't exist with hugetlbfs, that should
make sealing as close as it can be to shmem support.

Patch series "memfd: add sealing to hugetlb-backed memory", v3.
Recently, Mike Kravetz added hugetlbfs support to memfd. However, he
didn't add sealing support. One of the reasons to use memfd is to have
shared memory sealing when doing IPC or sharing memory with another
process with some extra safety. qemu uses shared memory & hugetables
with vhost-user (used by dpdk), so it is reasonable to use memfd now
instead for convenience and security reasons.
This patch (of 9):
The functions are called through shmem_fcntl() only. And no danger in
removing the EXPORTs as the routines only work with shmem file structs.

Neither of these values get even close to 256; compound_dtor is
currently at a maximum of 3, and compound_order can't be over 64. No
machine has inefficient access to bytes since EV5, and while those are
still supported, we don't optimise for them any more. This does not
shrink struct page, but it removes an ifdef and frees up 2-6 bytes for
future use.

The "third double word block" isn't on 32-bit systems. The layout looks
like this:
unsigned long flags;
struct address_space *mapping
pgoff_t index;
atomic_t _mapcount;
atomic_t _refcount;
which is 32 bytes on 64-bit, but 20 bytes on 32-bit. Nobody is trying to
use the fact that it's double-word aligned today, so just remove the
misleading claims.

I found the struct { union { struct { union { struct { } } } } } layout
rather confusing. Fortunately, there is an easier way to write this.
The innermost union is of four things which are the size of an int, so
the ones which are used by slab/slob/slub can be pulled up two levels to
be in the outermost union with 'counters'. That leaves us with struct {
union { struct { atomic_t; atomic_t; } } } which has the same layout,
but is easier to read.

the whitespace changes from the indentation:

Patch series "Restructure struct page", v2.
This series does not attempt any grand restructuring. Instead, it cures
the worst of the indentitis, fixes the documentation and reduces the
ifdeffery. The only layout change is compound_dtor and compound_order
are each reduced to one byte.
This patch (of 8):
Instead of an ifdef block at the end of the struct, which needed its own
comment, define _struct_page_alignment up at the top where it fits
nicely with the existing comment.

Commit 4d4bbd8526a8 ("mm, oom_reaper: skip mm structs with mmu
notifiers") prevented the oom reaper from unmapping private anonymous
memory with the oom reaper when the oom victim mm had mmu notifiers
registered.
The rationale is that doing mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_{start,end}()
around the unmap_page_range(), which is needed, can block and the oom
killer will stall forever waiting for the victim to exit, which may not
be possible without reaping.
That concern is real, but only true for mmu notifiers that have
blockable invalidate_range_{start,end}() callbacks. This patch adds a
"flags" field to mmu notifier ops that can set a bit to indicate that
these callbacks do not block.
The implementation is steered toward an expensive slowpath, such as
after the oom reaper has grabbed mm->mmap_sem of a still alive oom
victim.

Instead of marking the pmd ready for split, invalidate the pmd. This
should take care of powerpc requirement. Only side effect is that we
mark the pmd invalid early. This can result in us blocking access to
the page a bit longer if we race against a thp split.

Vlastimil noted that pmdp_invalidate() is not atomic and we can lose
dirty and access bits if CPU sets them after pmdp dereference, but
before set_pmd_at().
The patch change pmdp_invalidate() to make the entry non-present
atomically and return previous value of the entry. This value can be
used to check if CPU set dirty/accessed bits under us.
The race window is very small and I haven't seen any reports that can be
attributed to the bug. For this reason, I don't think backporting to
stable trees needed.

Patch series "Do not lose dirty bit on THP pages", v4.
Vlastimil noted that pmdp_invalidate() is not atomic and we can lose
dirty and access bits if CPU sets them after pmdp dereference, but
before set_pmd_at().
The bug can lead to data loss, but the race window is tiny and I haven't
seen any reports that suggested that it happens in reality. So I don't
think it worth sending it to stable.
Unfortunately, there's no way to address the issue in a generic way. We
need to fix all architectures that support THP one-by-one.
All architectures that have THP supported have to provide atomic
pmdp_invalidate() that returns previous value.
If generic implementation of pmdp_invalidate() is used, architecture
needs to provide atomic pmdp_estabish().
pmdp_estabish() is not used out-side generic implementation of
pmdp_invalidate() so far, but I think this can change in the future.
This patch (of 12):
This is an implementation of pmdp_establish() that is only suitable for
an architecture that doesn't have hardware dirty/accessed bits. In this
case we can't race with CPU which sets these bits and non-atomic
approach is fine.

We don't have to use an entire 'long' for the number of elements in the
pagevec; we know it's a number between 0 and 14 (now 15). So we can
store it in a char, and then the bool packs next to it and we still have
two or six bytes of padding for more elements in the header. That gives
us space to cram in an extra page.

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.

hugepages_treat_as_movable has been introduced by 396faf0303d2 ("Allow
huge page allocations to use GFP_HIGH_MOVABLE") to allow hugetlb
allocations from ZONE_MOVABLE even when hugetlb pages were not
migrateable. The purpose of the movable zone was different at the time.
It aimed at reducing memory fragmentation and hugetlb pages being long
lived and large werre not contributing to the fragmentation so it was
acceptable to use the zone back then.
Things have changed though and the primary purpose of the zone became
migratability guarantee. If we allow non migrateable hugetlb pages to
be in ZONE_MOVABLE memory hotplug might fail to offline the memory.
Remove the knob and only rely on hugepage_migration_supported to allow
movable zones.
Mel said:
: Primarily it was aimed at allowing the hugetlb pool to safely shrink with
: the ability to grow it again. The use case was for batched jobs, some of
: which needed huge pages and others that did not but didn't want the memory
: useless pinned in the huge pages pool.
:
: I suspect that more users rely on THP than hugetlbfs for flexible use of
: huge pages with fallback options so I think that removing the option
: should be ok.

We've seen memory.stat reads in top-level cgroups take up to fourteen
seconds during a userspace bug that created tens of thousands of ghost
cgroups pinned by lingering page cache.
Even with a more reasonable number of cgroups, aggregating memory.stat
is unnecessarily heavy. The complexity is this:
nr_cgroups * nr_stat_items * nr_possible_cpus
where the stat items are ~70 at this point. With 128 cgroups and 128
CPUs - decent, not enormous setups - reading the top-level memory.stat
has to aggregate over a million per-cpu counters. This doesn't scale.
Instead of spreading the source of truth across all CPUs, use the
per-cpu counters merely to batch updates to shared atomic counters.
This is the same as the per-cpu stocks we use for charging memory to the
shared atomic page_counters, and also the way the global vmstat counters
are implemented.
Vmstat has elaborate spilling thresholds that depend on the number of
CPUs, amount of memory, and memory pressure - carefully balancing the
cost of counter updates with the amount of per-cpu error. That's
because the vmstat counters are system-wide, but also used for decisions
inside the kernel (e.g. NR_FREE_PAGES in the allocator). Neither is
true for the memory controller.
Use the same static batch size we already use for page_counter updates
during charging. The per-cpu error in the stats will be 128k, which is
an acceptable ratio of cores to memory accounting granularity.

The implementation of the lruvec stat functions and their variants for
accounting through a page, or accounting from a preemptible context, are
mostly identical and needlessly repetitive.
Implement the lruvec_page functions by looking up the page's lruvec and
then using the lruvec function.
Implement the functions for preemptible contexts by disabling preemption
before calling the atomic context functions.

Previously we were using the ratio of the number of lru pages scanned to
the number of eligible lru pages to determine the number of slab objects
to scan. The problem with this is that these two things have nothing to
do with each other, so in slab heavy work loads where there is little to
no page cache we can end up with the pages scanned being a very low
number. This means that we reclaim next to no slab pages and waste a
lot of time reclaiming small amounts of space.
Consider the following scenario, where we have the following values and
the rest of the memory usage is in slab
Active: 58840 kB
Inactive: 46860 kB
Every time we do a get_scan_count() we do this
scan = size >> sc->priority
where sc->priority starts at DEF_PRIORITY, which is 12. The first loop
through reclaim would result in a scan target of 2 pages to 11715 total
inactive pages, and 3 pages to 14710 total active pages. This is a
really really small target for a system that is entirely slab pages.
And this is super optimistic, this assumes we even get to scan these
pages. We don't increment sc->nr_scanned unless we 1) isolate the page,
which assumes it's not in use, and 2) can lock the page. Under pressure
these numbers could probably go down, I'm sure there's some random pages
from daemons that aren't actually in use, so the targets get even
smaller.
Instead use sc->priority in the same way we use it to determine scan
amounts for the lru's. This generally equates to pages. Consider the
following
slab_pages = (nr_objects * object_size) / PAGE_SIZE
What we would like to do is
scan = slab_pages >> sc->priority
but we don't know the number of slab pages each shrinker controls, only
the objects. However say that theoretically we knew how many pages a
shrinker controlled, we'd still have to convert this to objects, which
would look like the following
scan = shrinker_pages >> sc->priority
scan_objects = (PAGE_SIZE / object_size) * scan
or written another way
scan_objects = (shrinker_pages >> sc->priority) *
(PAGE_SIZE / object_size)
which can thus be written
scan_objects = ((shrinker_pages * PAGE_SIZE) / object_size) >>
sc->priority
which is just
scan_objects = nr_objects >> sc->priority
We don't need to know exactly how many pages each shrinker represents,
it's objects are all the information we need. Making this change allows
us to place an appropriate amount of pressure on the shrinker pools for
their relative size.

Pulling cpu hotplug locks inside the mm core function like
lru_add_drain_all just asks for problems and the recent lockdep splat
[1] just proves this. While the usage in that particular case might be
wrong we should avoid the locking as lru_add_drain_all() is used in many
places. It seems that this is not all that hard to achieve actually.
We have done the same thing for drain_all_pages which is analogous by
commit a459eeb7b852 ("mm, page_alloc: do not depend on cpu hotplug locks
inside the allocator"). All we have to care about is to handle
- the work item might be executed on a different cpu in worker from
unbound pool so it doesn't run on pinned on the cpu
- we have to make sure that we do not race with page_alloc_cpu_dead
calling lru_add_drain_cpu
the first part is already handled because the worker calls lru_add_drain
which disables preemption when calling lru_add_drain_cpu on the local
cpu it is draining. The later is true because page_alloc_cpu_dead is
called on the controlling CPU after the hotplugged CPU vanished
completely.

Pull xfs updates from Darrick Wong:
"This merge cycle, we're again some substantive changes to XFS.
Metadata verifiers have been restructured to provide more detail about
which part of a metadata structure failed checks, and we've enhanced
the new online fsck feature to cross-reference extent allocation
information with the other metadata structures. With this pull, the
metadata verification part of online fsck is more or less finished,
though the feature is still experimental and still disabled by
default.
We're also preparing to remove the EXPERIMENTAL tag from a couple of
features this cycle. This week we're committing a bunch of space
accounting fixes for reflink and removing the EXPERIMENTAL tag from
reflink; I anticipate that we'll be ready to do the same for the
reverse mapping feature next week. (I don't have any pending fixes for
rmap; however I wish to remove the tags one at a time.)
This giant pile of patches has been run through a full xfstests run
over the weekend and through a quick xfstests run against this
morning's master, with no major failures reported. Let me know if
there's any merge problems -- git merge reported that one of our
patches touched the same function as the i_version series, but it
resolved things cleanly.
Summary:
- Log faulting code locations when verifiers fail, for improved
diagnosis of corrupt filesystems.
- Implement metadata verifiers for local format inode fork data.
- Online scrub now cross-references metadata records with other
metadata.
- Refactor the fs geometry ioctl generation functions.
- Harden various metadata verifiers.
- Fix various accounting problems.
- Fix uncancelled transactions leaking when xattr functions fail.
- Prevent the copy-on-write speculative preallocation garbage
collector from racing with writeback.
- Emit log reservation type information as trace data so that we can
compare against xfsprogs.
- Fix some erroneous asserts in the online scrub code.
- Clean up the transaction reservation calculations.
- Fix various minor bugs in online scrub.
- Log complaints about mixed dio/buffered writes once per day and
less noisily than before.
- Refactor buffer log item lists to use list_head.
- Break PNFS leases before reflinking blocks.
- Reduce lock contention on reflink source files.
- Fix some quota accounting problems with reflink.
- Fix a serious corruption problem in the direct cow write code where
we fed bad iomaps to the vfs iomap consumers.
- Various other refactorings.
- Remove EXPERIMENTAL tag from reflink!"

Pull GFS2 updates from Bob Peterson:
"We've got 30 patches for this merge window. These generally fall into
five categories:
- code cleanups
- patches related to adding PUNCH_HOLE support to GFS2
- support for new fields in resource group headers
- a few bug fixes
- support for new fields in journal log headers. These new fields,
which were previously unused, are designed to make it easier to
track down file system corruption, and allow fsck.gfs2 to make more
intelligent decisions when finding and fixing file system
corruption.
Details:
- Two patches from Abhi Das, to trim the ordered writes list, which
used to grow uncontrollably until unmount.
- Several patches from Andreas Gruenbacher: remove an unused
parameter from function gfs2_write_jdata_pagevec, remove a
pointless BUG_ON, clean up an error patch in trunc_start, remove
some unused parameters from truncate, make gfs2_journaled_truncate
more efficient, clean up the support functions for truncate, fix
metadata read-ahead for truncate to make it faster, fix up the
non-recursive truncate code, rework and rename
gfs2_block_truncate_page, generalize the non-recursive truncate
code so it can take a range of values for punch_hole support,
introduce new PUNCH_HOLE support that take advantage of the
previous patches, add fallocate support with PUNCH_HOLE, fix some
typos in the comments, add the function gfs2_max_stuffed_size to
replace a piece of code that was needlessly repeated throughout
GFS2, a minor cleanup to function gfs2_page_add_databufs, get rid
of function gfs2_log_header_in in preparation for the new log
header fields, and also fix up some missing newlines in kernel
messages.
- Andy Price added a new field to resource groups to indicate where
the next one should be, to allow fsck.gfs2 to make better repairs.
He also added new rindex fields for consistency checking, and added
a crc field to resource group headers for consistency checking.
- I reduced redundancy in functions common to freeing dinodes, and
when writing log headers between the journalling code and journal
recovery code. Also added new fields to journal log headers based
on a prototype from Steve Whitehouse, and log the source of journal
log headers so we can better track down journal corruption. Minor
comment typo fix and a fix for a BUG in an unlink error path.
- Steve Whitehouse contributed a patch to fix an incorrect use of the
gfs2_blk2rgrpd function.
- Tetsuo Handa contributed a patch that fixes incorrect error
handling in function init_gfs2_fs"

As Linus points out:
The inode_cmp_iversion{+raw}() functions are pure and utter crap.
Why?
You say that they return 0/negative/positive, but they do so in a
completely broken manner. They return that ternary value as the
sequence number difference in a 's64', which means that if you
actually care about that ternary value, and do the *sane* thing that
the kernel-doc of the function implies is the right thing, you would
do
int cmp = inode_cmp_iversion(inode, old);
if (cmp < 0 ...
and as a result you get code that looks sane, but that doesn't
actually *WORK* right.
Since none of the callers actually care about the ternary value here,
convert the inode_cmp_iversion{+raw} functions to just return a boolean
value (false for matching, true for non-matching).
This matches the existing use of these functions just fine, and makes it
simple to convert them to return a ternary value in the future if we
grow callers that need it.
With this change we can also reimplement inode_cmp_iversion in a simpler
way using inode_peek_iversion.

Pull poll annotations from Al Viro:
"This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates
the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as
'make ->poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local
variables used to hold the future return value'.
Some of the obvious brainos found in process are fixed (e.g. POLLIN
misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is
low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. ->poll() instance
deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those
in this series - it's large enough as it is.
Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and
eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were
equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are
arch-independent, but POLL### are not.
The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from
the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them
in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this
is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll()
work on all architectures.
As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and
it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other
architectures. EPOLLWRBAND and EPOLLRDHUP, OTOH, are never triggered
at all on sparc. With this patch they should work consistently on all
architectures"

Pull siginfo cleanups from Eric Biederman:
"Long ago when 2.4 was just a testing release copy_siginfo_to_user was
made to copy individual fields to userspace, possibly for efficiency
and to ensure initialized values were not copied to userspace.
Unfortunately the design was complex, it's assumptions unstated, and
humans are fallible and so while it worked much of the time that
design failed to ensure unitialized memory is not copied to userspace.
This set of changes is part of a new design to clean up siginfo and
simplify things, and hopefully make the siginfo handling robust enough
that a simple inspection of the code can be made to ensure we don't
copy any unitializied fields to userspace.
The design is to unify struct siginfo and struct compat_siginfo into a
single definition that is shared between all architectures so that
anyone adding to the set of information shared with struct siginfo can
see the whole picture. Hopefully ensuring all future si_code
assignments are arch independent.
The design is to unify copy_siginfo_to_user32 and
copy_siginfo_from_user32 so that those function are complete and cope
with all of the different cases documented in signinfo_layout. I don't
think there was a single implementation of either of those functions
that was complete and correct before my changes unified them.
The design is to introduce a series of helpers including
force_siginfo_fault that take the values that are needed in struct
siginfo and build the siginfo structure for their callers. Ensuring
struct siginfo is built correctly.
The remaining work for 4.17 (unless someone thinks it is post -rc1
material) is to push usage of those helpers down into the
architectures so that architecture specific code will not need to deal
with the fiddly work of intializing struct siginfo, and then when
struct siginfo is guaranteed to be fully initialized change copy
siginfo_to_user into a simple wrapper around copy_to_user.
Further there is work in progress on the issues that have been
documented requires arch specific knowledge to sort out.
The changes below fix or at least document all of the issues that have
been found with siginfo generation. Then proceed to unify struct
siginfo the 32 bit helpers that copy siginfo to and from userspace,
and generally clean up anything that is not arch specific with regards
to siginfo generation.
It is a lot but with the unification you can of siginfo you can
already see the code reduction in the kernel"

- Improve shell auto-completion of perf events (Jin Yao)
- 'perf probe' improvements (Masami Hiramatsu)
- Improve PMU infrastructure to support amp64's ThunderX2
implementation defined core events (Ganapatrao Kulkarni)
- Various annotation related improvements and fixes (Thomas Richter)
- Clarify usage of 'overwrite' and 'backward' in the evlist/mmap
code, removing the 'overwrite' parameter from several functions as
it was always used it as 'false' (Wang Nan)
- Fix/improve 'perf record' reverse recording support (Wang Nan)
- Improve command line options documentation (Sihyeon Jang)
- Optimize sample parsing for ordering events, where we don't need to
parse all the PERF_SAMPLE_ bits, just the ones leading to the
timestamp needed to reorder events (Jiri Olsa)
- Generalize the annotation code to support other source information
besides objdump/DWARF obtained ones, starting with python scripts,
that will is slated to be merged soon (Jiri Olsa)
- ... and a lot more that I failed to list, see the shortlog and
changelog for details"

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes relate to making lock_is_held() et al (and external
wrappers of them) work on const data types - this requires const
propagation through the depths of lockdep.
This removes a number of ugly type hacks the external helpers used"
* 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
lockdep: Convert some users to const
lockdep: Make lockdep checking constant
lockdep: Assign lock keys on registration

Pull EFI updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The biggest change in this cycle was the addition of ARM CPER error
decoding when printing EFI errors into the kernel log.
There are also misc smaller updates: documentation update, cleanups
and an EFI memory map permissions quirk"
* 'efi-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
x86/efi: Clarify that reset attack mitigation needs appropriate userspace
efi: Parse ARM error information value
efi: Move ARM CPER code to new file
efi: Use PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO()
