Add plist_requeue(), which moves the specified plist_node after all other
same-priority plist_nodes in the list. This is essentially an optimized
plist_del() followed by plist_add().
This is needed by swap, which (with the next patch in this set) uses a
plist of available swap devices. When a swap device (either a swap
partition or swap file) are added to the system with swapon(), the device
is added to a plist, ordered by the swap device's priority. When swap
needs to allocate a page from one of the swap devices, it takes the page
from the first swap device on the plist, which is the highest priority
swap device. The swap device is left in the plist until all its pages are
used, and then removed from the plist when it becomes full.
However, as described in man 2 swapon, swap must allocate pages from swap
devices with the same priority in round-robin order; to do this, on each
swap page allocation, swap uses a page from the first swap device in the
plist, and then calls plist_requeue() to move that swap device entry to
after any other same-priority swap devices. The next swap page allocation
will again use a page from the first swap device in the plist and requeue
it, and so on, resulting in round-robin usage of equal-priority swap
devices.
Also add plist_test_requeue() test function, for use by plist_test() to
test plist_requeue() function.

The DMA Contiguous Memory Allocator support on x86 is disabled when
swiotlb config option is enabled. So DMA CMA is always disabled on
x86_64 because swiotlb is always enabled. This attempts to support for
DMA CMA with enabling swiotlb config option.
The contiguous memory allocator on x86 is integrated in the function
dma_generic_alloc_coherent() which is .alloc callback in nommu_dma_ops
for dma_alloc_coherent().
x86_swiotlb_alloc_coherent() which is .alloc callback in swiotlb_dma_ops
tries to allocate with dma_generic_alloc_coherent() firstly and then
swiotlb_alloc_coherent() is called as a fallback.
The main part of supporting DMA CMA with swiotlb is that changing
x86_swiotlb_free_coherent() which is .free callback in swiotlb_dma_ops
for dma_free_coherent() so that it can distinguish memory allocated by
dma_generic_alloc_coherent() from one allocated by
swiotlb_alloc_coherent() and release it with dma_generic_free_coherent()
which can handle contiguous memory. This change requires making
is_swiotlb_buffer() global function.
This also needs to change .free callback in the dma_map_ops for amd_gart
and sta2x11, because these dma_ops are also using
dma_generic_alloc_coherent().

I got a bug report yesterday from Laszlo Ersek in which he states that
his kvm instance fails to suspend. Laszlo bisected it down to this
commit 1cf7e9c68fe8 ("virtio_blk: blk-mq support") where virtio-blk is
converted to use the blk-mq infrastructure.
After digging a bit, it became clear that the issue was with the queue
drain. blk-mq tracks queue usage in a percpu counter, which is
incremented on request alloc and decremented when the request is freed.
The initial hunt was for an inconsistency in blk-mq, but everything
seemed fine. In fact, the counter only returned crazy values when
suspend was in progress.
When a CPU is unplugged, the percpu counters merges that CPU state with
the general state. blk-mq takes care to register a hotcpu notifier with
the appropriate priority, so we know it runs after the percpu counter
notifier. However, the percpu counter notifier only merges the state
when the CPU is fully gone. This leaves a state transition where the
CPU going away is no longer in the online mask, yet it still holds
private values. This means that in this state, percpu_counter_sum()
returns invalid results, and the suspend then hangs waiting for
abs(dead-cpu-value) requests to complete which of course will never
happen.
Fix this by clearing the state earlier, so we never have a case where
the CPU isn't in online mask but still holds private state. This bug
has been there since forever, I guess we don't have a lot of users where
percpu counters needs to be reliable during the suspend cycle.

If the renamed symbol is defined lib/iomap.c implements ioport_map and
ioport_unmap and currently (nearly) all platforms define the port
accessor functions outb/inb and friend unconditionally. So
HAS_IOPORT_MAP is the better name for this.
Consequently NO_IOPORT is renamed to NO_IOPORT_MAP.
The motivation for this change is to reintroduce a symbol HAS_IOPORT
that signals if outb/int et al are available. I will address that at
least one merge window later though to keep surprises to a minimum and
catch new introductions of (HAS|NO)_IOPORT.

Replace rcu_assign_pointer(x, NULL) with RCU_INIT_POINTER(x, NULL)
The rcu_assign_pointer() ensures that the initialization of a structure
is carried out before storing a pointer to that structure. And in the
case of the NULL pointer, there is no structure to initialize.
So, rcu_assign_pointer(p, NULL) can be safely converted to
RCU_INIT_POINTER(p, NULL)

I added a helper macro IOMEM_ERR_PTR() that does the typecast to make
the code a little nicer than adding ugly typecasts to the code.

Currently kobject_uevent has somewhat unpredictable semantics. The
point is, since it may call a usermode helper and wait for it to execute
(UMH_WAIT_EXEC), it is impossible to say for sure what lock dependencies
it will introduce for the caller - strictly speaking it depends on what
fs the binary is located on and the set of locks fork may take. There
are quite a few kobject_uevent's users that do not take this into
account and call it with various mutexes taken, e.g. rtnl_mutex,
net_mutex, which might potentially lead to a deadlock.
Since there is actually no reason to wait for the usermode helper to
execute there, let's make kobject_uevent start the helper asynchronously
with the aid of the UMH_NO_WAIT flag.
Personally, I'm interested in this, because I really want kobject_uevent
to be called under the slab_mutex in the slub implementation as it used
to be some time ago, because it greatly simplifies synchronization and
automatically fixes a kmemcg-related race. However, there was a
deadlock detected on an attempt to call kobject_uevent under the
slab_mutex (see https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/14/45), which was reported
to be fixed by releasing the slab_mutex for kobject_uevent.
Unfortunately, there was no information about who exactly blocked on the
slab_mutex causing the usermode helper to stall, neither have I managed
to find this out or reproduce the issue.
BTW, this is not the first attempt to make kobject_uevent use
UMH_NO_WAIT. Previous one was made by commit f520360d93cd ("kobject:
don't block for each kobject_uevent"), but it was wrong (it passed
arguments allocated on stack to async thread) so it was reverted in

Previously, page cache radix tree nodes were freed after reclaim emptied
out their page pointers. But now reclaim stores shadow entries in their
place, which are only reclaimed when the inodes themselves are
reclaimed. This is problematic for bigger files that are still in use
after they have a significant amount of their cache reclaimed, without
any of those pages actually refaulting. The shadow entries will just
sit there and waste memory. In the worst case, the shadow entries will
accumulate until the machine runs out of memory.
To get this under control, the VM will track radix tree nodes
exclusively containing shadow entries on a per-NUMA node list. Per-NUMA
rather than global because we expect the radix tree nodes themselves to
be allocated node-locally and we want to reduce cross-node references of
otherwise independent cache workloads. A simple shrinker will then
reclaim these nodes on memory pressure.
A few things need to be stored in the radix tree node to implement the
shadow node LRU and allow tree deletions coming from the list:
1. There is no index available that would describe the reverse path
from the node up to the tree root, which is needed to perform a
deletion. To solve this, encode in each node its offset inside the
parent. This can be stored in the unused upper bits of the same
member that stores the node's height at no extra space cost.
2. The number of shadow entries needs to be counted in addition to the
regular entries, to quickly detect when the node is ready to go to
the shadow node LRU list. The current entry count is an unsigned
int but the maximum number of entries is 64, so a shadow counter
can easily be stored in the unused upper bits.
3. Tree modification needs tree lock and tree root, which are located
in the address space, so store an address_space backpointer in the
node. The parent pointer of the node is in a union with the 2-word
rcu_head, so the backpointer comes at no extra cost as well.
4. The node needs to be linked to an LRU list, which requires a list
head inside the node. This does increase the size of the node, but
it does not change the number of objects that fit into a slab page.

Make struct radix_tree_node part of the public interface and provide API
functions to create, look up, and delete whole nodes. Refactor the
existing insert, look up, delete functions on top of these new node
primitives.
This will allow the VM to track and garbage collect page cache radix
tree nodes.

The radix tree hole searching code is only used for page cache, for
example the readahead code trying to get a a picture of the area
surrounding a fault.
It sufficed to rely on the radix tree definition of holes, which is
"empty tree slot". But this is about to change, though, as shadow page
descriptors will be stored in the page cache after the actual pages get
evicted from memory.
Move the functions over to mm/filemap.c and make them native page cache
operations, where they can later be adapted to handle the new definition
of "page cache hole".

Provide a function that does not just delete an entry at a given index,
but also allows passing in an expected item. Delete only if that item
is still located at the specified index.
This is handy when lockless tree traversals want to delete entries as
well because they don't have to do an second, locked lookup to verify
the slot has not changed under them before deleting the entry.

nla_strcmp compares the string length plus one, so it's implicitly
including the nul-termination in the comparison.
int nla_strcmp(const struct nlattr *nla, const char *str)
{
int len = strlen(str) + 1;
...
d = memcmp(nla_data(nla), str, len);
However, if NLA_STRING is used, userspace can send us a string without
the nul-termination. This is a problem since the string
comparison will not match as the last byte may be not the
nul-termination.
Fix this by skipping the comparison of the nul-termination if the
attribute data is nul-terminated. Suggested by Thomas Graf.

Commit 4af712e8df ("random32: add prandom_reseed_late() and call when
nonblocking pool becomes initialized") has added a late reseed stage
that happens as soon as the nonblocking pool is marked as initialized.
This fails in the case that the nonblocking pool gets initialized
during __prandom_reseed()'s call to get_random_bytes(). In that case
we'd double back into __prandom_reseed() in an attempt to do a late
reseed - deadlocking on 'lock' early on in the boot process.
Instead, just avoid even waiting to do a reseed if a reseed is already
occuring.

built-in ROM fonts
STI console is used on parisc and m68k HP machines. This patch partly reverts
my previous commit and as such restores the fonts for the m68k machines.

lib/audit.c provides a generic function for auditing system calls.
This patch extends it for compat syscall support on bi-architectures
(32/64-bit) by adding lib/compat_audit.c.
What is required to support this feature are:
* add asm/unistd32.h for compat system call names
* select CONFIG_AUDIT_ARCH_COMPAT_GENERIC

While debug_dma_assert_idle() checks if a given *page* is actively
undergoing dma the valid granularity of a dma mapping is a *cacheline*.
Sander's testing shows that the warning message "DMA-API: exceeded 7
overlapping mappings of pfn..." is falsely triggering. The test is
simply mapping multiple cachelines in a given page.
Ultimately we want overlap tracking to be valid as it is a real api
violation, so we need to track active mappings by cachelines. Update
the active dma tracking to use the page-frame-relative cacheline of the
mapping as the key, and update debug_dma_assert_idle() to check for all
possible mapped cachelines for a given page.
However, the need to track active mappings is only relevant when the
dma-mapping is writable by the device. In fact it is fairly standard
for read-only mappings to have hundreds or thousands of overlapping
mappings at once. Limiting the overlap tracking to writable
(!DMA_TO_DEVICE) eliminates this class of false-positive overlap
reports.
Note, the radix gang lookup is sub-optimal. It would be best if it
stopped fetching entries once the search passed a page boundary.
Nevertheless, this implementation does not perturb the original net_dma
failing case. That is to say the extra overhead does not show up in
terms of making the failing case pass due to a timing change.

Sometimes we have a struct resource where we know the type (MEM/IO/etc.)
and the size, but we haven't assigned address space for it. The
IORESOURCE_UNSET flag is a way to indicate this situation. For these
"unset" resources, the start address is meaningless, so print only the
size, e.g.,
- pci 0000:0c:00.0: reg 184: [mem 0x00000000-0x00001fff 64bit]
+ pci 0000:0c:00.0: reg 184: [mem size 0x2000 64bit]
For %pr (printing with raw flags), we still print the address range,
because %pr is mostly used for debugging anyway.
Thanks to Fengguang Wu <fengguang.wu@intel.com> for suggesting
resource_size().
