In write_cache_pages, scanned == 1 is supposed to mean that cyclic writeback has circled through zero, thus we should not circle again. However it gets set to 1 after the first successful pagevec lookup. This leads to cases where not enough data gets written. Counterexample: file with first 10 pages dirty, writeback_index == 5, nr_to_write == 10. Then the 5 last pages will be found, and scanned will be set to 1, after writing those out, we will not cycle back to get the first 5. Rework this logic, now we'll always cycle unless we started off from index 0. When cycling, only write out as far as 1 page before the start page from the first cycle (so we don't write parts of the file twice).

Rather than have the pagefault handler kill a process directly if it gets a VM_FAULT_OOM, have it call into the OOM killer. With increasingly sophisticated oom behaviour (cpusets, memory cgroups, oom killing throttling, oom priority adjustment or selective disabling, panic on oom, etc), it's silly to unconditionally kill the faulting process at page fault time. Create a hook for pagefault oom path to call into instead. Only converted x86 and uml so far.

Doing a mark_page_accessed at fault-time, then doing SetPageReferenced at unmap-time if the pte is young has a number of problems. mark_page_accessed is supposed to be roughly the equivalent of a young pte for unmapped references. Unfortunately it doesn't come with any context: after being called, reclaim doesn't know who or why the page was touched. So calling mark_page_accessed not only adds extra lru or PG_referenced manipulations for pages that are already going to have pte_young ptes anyway, but it also adds these references which are difficult to work with from the context of vma specific references (eg. MADV_SEQUENTIAL pte_young may not wish to contribute to the page being referenced). Then, simply doing SetPageReferenced when zapping a pte and finding it is young, is not a really good solution either. SetPageReferenced does not correctly promote the page to the active list for example. So after removing mark_page_accessed from the fault path, several mmap()+touch+munmap() would have a very different result from several read(2) calls for example, which is not really desirable.

The KernelPageSize entry in /proc/pid/smaps is the pagesize used by the kernel to back a VMA. This matches the size used by the MMU in the majority of cases. However, one counter-example occurs on PPC64 kernels whereby a kernel using 64K as a base pagesize may still use 4K pages for the MMU on older processor. To distinguish, this patch reports MMUPageSize as the pagesize used by the MMU in /proc/pid/smaps.

It is useful to verify a hugepage-aware application is using the expected pagesizes for its memory regions. This patch creates an entry called KernelPageSize in /proc/pid/smaps that is the size of page used by the kernel to back a VMA. The entry is not called PageSize as it is possible the MMU uses a different size. This extension should not break any sensible parser that skips lines containing unrecognised information.

Fsync currently has a fdatawrite/fdatawait pair around the method call, and a mutex_lock/unlock of the inode mutex. All callers of fsync have to duplicate this, but we have a few and most of them don't quite get it right. This patch adds a new vfs_fsync that takes care of this. It's a little more complicated as usual as ->fsync might get a NULL file pointer and just a dentry from nfsd, but otherwise gets afile and we want to take the mapping and file operations from it when it is there. Notes on the fsync callers: - ecryptfs wasn't calling filemap_fdatawrite / filemap_fdatawait on the lower file - coda wasn't calling filemap_fdatawrite / filemap_fdatawait on the host file, and returning 0 when ->fsync was missing - shm wasn't calling either filemap_fdatawrite / filemap_fdatawait nor taking i_mutex. Now given that shared memory doesn't have disk backing not doing anything in fsync seems fine and I left it out of the vfs_fsync conversion for now, but in that case we might just not pass it through to the lower file at all but just call the no-op simple_sync_file directly.

With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the allocations happened. They are done in write_begin, which would always assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim. This bug could cause filesystem deadlocks. The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be called. It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to take the page lock. The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS anyway, so turn that into a single flag. Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS. Filesystems can now act on this flag in their write_begin function. Change __grab_cache_page to accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there, change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive and does away with random leading underscores). This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg. ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a random example).

If a slab cache is mergeable and the sysfs alias cannot be added, the target cache shall have its refcount decremented. kmem_cache_create() will return NULL, so if kmem_cache_destroy() is ever called on the target cache, it will never be freed if the refcount has been leaked. Likewise, if a slab cache is not mergeable and the sysfs link cannot be added, the new cache shall be removed from the slab_caches list. kmem_cache_create() will return NULL, so it will be impossible to call kmem_cache_destroy() on it. Both of these operations require slub_lock since refcount of all slab caches and slab_caches are protected by the lock. In the mergeable case, it would be better to restore objsize and offset back to their original values, but this could race with another merge since slub_lock was dropped.

Commit 6cb06229 ("Categorize GFP flags") left one call-site in alloc_slabmgmt() to clear GFP_THISNODE instead of GFP_CONSTRAINT_MASK. Unfortunately, that ends up clearing __GFP_NOWARN and __GFP_NORETRY as well which is not what we want. As the only caller of alloc_slabmgmt() already clears GFP_CONSTRAINT_MASK before passing local_flags to it, we can just remove the clearing of GFP_THISNODE.

Impact: Code transformation, new functions added should have no effect. Drivers use mmap followed by pgprot_* and remap_pfn_range or vm_insert_pfn, in order to export reserved memory to userspace. Currently, such mappings are not tracked and hence not kept consistent with other mappings (/dev/mem, pci resource, ioremap) for the sme memory, that may exist in the system. The following patchset adds x86 PAT attribute tracking and untracking for pfnmap related APIs. First three patches in the patchset are changing the generic mm code to fit in this tracking. Last four patches are x86 specific to make things work with x86 PAT code. The patchset aso introduces pgprot_writecombine interface, which gives writecombine mapping when enabled, falling back to pgprot_noncached otherwise. This patch: While working on x86 PAT, we faced some hurdles with trackking remap_pfn_range() regions, as we do not have any information to say whether that PFNMAP mapping is linear for the entire vma range or it is smaller granularity regions within the vma. A simple solution to this is to use vm_pgoff as an indicator for linear mapping over the vma region. Currently, remap_pfn_range only sets vm_pgoff for COW mappings. Below patch changes the logic and sets the vm_pgoff irrespective of COW. This will still not be enough for the case where pfn is zero (vma region mapped to physical address zero). But, for all the other cases, we can look at pfnmap VMAs and say whether the mappng is for the entire vma region or not.

Impact: cleanup, code robustization The __swp_...() macros silently relied upon which bits are used for _PAGE_FILE and _PAGE_PROTNONE. After having changed _PAGE_PROTNONE in our Xen kernel to no longer overlap _PAGE_PAT, live locks and crashes were reported that could have been avoided if these macros properly used the symbolic constants. Since, as pointed out earlier, for Xen Dom0 support mainline likewise will need to eliminate the conflict between _PAGE_PAT and _PAGE_PROTNONE, this patch does all the necessary adjustments, plus it introduces a mechanism to check consistency between MAX_SWAPFILES_SHIFT and the actual encoding macros. This also fixes a latent bug in that x86-64 used a 6-bit mask in __swp_type(), and if MAX_SWAPFILES_SHIFT was increased beyond 5 in (the seemingly unrelated) linux/swap.h, this would have resulted in a collision with _PAGE_FILE.
