      Pull IOMMU fix from Joerg Roedel:
       "Another fix, this time in common IOMMU sysfs code.
      
        In the conversion from the old iommu sysfs-code to the
        iommu_device_register interface, I missed to update the release path
        for the struct device associated with an IOMMU. It freed the 'struct
        device', which was a pointer before, but is now embedded in another
        struct.
      
        Freeing from the middle of allocated memory had all kinds of nasty
        side effects when an IOMMU was unplugged. Unfortunatly nobody
        unplugged and IOMMU until now, so this was not discovered earlier. The
        fix is to make the 'struct device' a pointer again"

      Avoid page waitqueue race leaving possible page locker waiting · a8b169af
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      The "lock_page_killable()" function waits for exclusive access to the
      page lock bit using the WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE bit in the waitqueue entry
      set.
      
      That means that if it gets woken up, other waiters may have been
      skipped.
      
      That, in turn, means that if it sees the page being unlocked, it *must*
      take that lock and return success, even if a lethal signal is also
      pending.
      
      So instead of checking for lethal signals first, we need to check for
      them after we've checked the actual bit that we were waiting for.  Even
      if that might then delay the killing of the process.
      
      This matches the order of the old "wait_on_bit_lock()" infrastructure
      that the page locking used to use (and is still used in a few other
      areas).
      
      Note that if we still return an error after having unsuccessfully tried
      to acquire the page lock, that is ok: that means that some other thread
      was able to get ahead of us and lock the page, and when that other
      thread then unlocks the page, the wakeup event will be repeated.  So any
      other pending waiters will now get properly woken up.

      Minor page waitqueue cleanups · 3510ca20
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Tim Chen and Kan Liang have been battling a customer load that shows
      extremely long page wakeup lists.  The cause seems to be constant NUMA
      migration of a hot page that is shared across a lot of threads, but the
      actual root cause for the exact behavior has not been found.
      
      Tim has a patch that batches the wait list traversal at wakeup time, so
      that we at least don't get long uninterruptible cases where we traverse
      and wake up thousands of processes and get nasty latency spikes.  That
      is likely 4.14 material, but we're still discussing the page waitqueue
      specific parts of it.
      
      In the meantime, I've tried to look at making the page wait queues less
      expensive, and failing miserably.  If you have thousands of threads
      waiting for the same page, it will be painful.  We'll need to try to
      figure out the NUMA balancing issue some day, in addition to avoiding
      the excessive spinlock hold times.
      
      That said, having tried to rewrite the page wait queues, I can at least
      fix up some of the braindamage in the current situation. In particular:
      
       (a) we don't want to continue walking the page wait list if the bit
           we're waiting for already got set again (which seems to be one of
           the patterns of the bad load).  That makes no progress and just
           causes pointless cache pollution chasing the pointers.
      
       (b) we don't want to put the non-locking waiters always on the front of
           the queue, and the locking waiters always on the back.  Not only is
           that unfair, it means that we wake up thousands of reading threads
           that will just end up being blocked by the writer later anyway.
      
      Also add a comment about the layout of 'struct wait_page_key' - there is
      an external user of it in the cachefiles code that means that it has to
      match the layout of 'struct wait_bit_key' in the two first members.  It
      so happens to match, because 'struct page *' and 'unsigned long *' end
      up having the same values simply because the page flags are the first
      member in struct page.
