When memory pressure is high, we free MADV_FREE pages.  If the pages are
not dirty in pte, the pages could be freed immediately.  Otherwise we
can't reclaim them.  We put the pages back to anonumous LRU list (by
setting SwapBacked flag) and the pages will be reclaimed in normal
swapout way.

We use normal page reclaim policy.  Since MADV_FREE pages are put into
inactive file list, such pages and inactive file pages are reclaimed
according to their age.  This is expected, because we don't want to
reclaim too many MADV_FREE pages before used once pages.

madv()'s MADV_FREE indicate pages are 'lazyfree'.  They are still
anonymous pages, but they can be freed without pageout.  To distinguish
these from normal anonymous pages, we clear their SwapBacked flag.

MADV_FREE pages could be freed without pageout, so they pretty much like
used once file pages.  For such pages, we'd like to reclaim them once
there is memory pressure.  Also it might be unfair reclaiming MADV_FREE
pages always before used once file pages and we definitively want to
reclaim the pages before other anonymous and file pages.

To speed up MADV_FREE pages reclaim, we put the pages into
LRU_INACTIVE_FILE list.  The rationale is LRU_INACTIVE_FILE list is tiny
nowadays and should be full of used once file pages.  Reclaiming
MADV_FREE pages will not have much interfere of anonymous and active
file pages.  And the inactive file pages and MADV_FREE pages will be
reclaimed according to their age, so we don't reclaim too many MADV_FREE
pages too.  Putting the MADV_FREE pages into LRU_INACTIVE_FILE_LIST also
means we can reclaim the pages without swap support.  This idea is
suggested by Johannes.

This patch doesn't move MADV_FREE pages to LRU_INACTIVE_FILE list yet to
avoid bisect failure, next patch will do it.

The patch is based on Minchan's original patch.

Patch series "mm: fix some MADV_FREE issues", v5.

We are trying to use MADV_FREE in jemalloc.  Several issues are found.
Without solving the issues, jemalloc can't use the MADV_FREE feature.

 - Doesn't support system without swap enabled. Because if swap is off,
   we can't or can't efficiently age anonymous pages. And since
   MADV_FREE pages are mixed with other anonymous pages, we can't
   reclaim MADV_FREE pages. In current implementation, MADV_FREE will
   fallback to MADV_DONTNEED without swap enabled. But in our
   environment, a lot of machines don't enable swap. This will prevent
   our setup using MADV_FREE.

 - Increases memory pressure. page reclaim bias file pages reclaim
   against anonymous pages. This doesn't make sense for MADV_FREE pages,
   because those pages could be freed easily and refilled with very
   slight penality. Even page reclaim doesn't bias file pages, there is
   still an issue, because MADV_FREE pages and other anonymous pages are
   mixed together. To reclaim a MADV_FREE page, we probably must scan a
   lot of other anonymous pages, which is inefficient. In our test, we
   usually see oom with MADV_FREE enabled and nothing without it.

 - Accounting. There are two accounting problems. We don't have a global
   accounting. If the system is abnormal, we don't know if it's a
   problem from MADV_FREE side. The other problem is RSS accounting.
   MADV_FREE pages are accounted as normal anon pages and reclaimed
   lazily, so application's RSS becomes bigger. This confuses our
   workloads. We have monitoring daemon running and if it finds
   applications' RSS becomes abnormal, the daemon will kill the
   applications even kernel can reclaim the memory easily.

To address the first the two issues, we can either put MADV_FREE pages
into a separate LRU list (Minchan's previous patches and V1 patches), or
put them into LRU_INACTIVE_FILE list (suggested by Johannes).  The
patchset use the second idea.  The reason is LRU_INACTIVE_FILE list is
tiny nowadays and should be full of used once file pages.  So we can
still efficiently reclaim MADV_FREE pages there without interference
with other anon and active file pages.  Putting the pages into inactive
file list also has an advantage which allows page reclaim to prioritize
MADV_FREE pages and used once file pages.  MADV_FREE pages are put into
the lru list and clear SwapBacked flag, so PageAnon(page) &&
!PageSwapBacked(page) will indicate a MADV_FREE pages.  These pages will
directly freed without pageout if they are clean, otherwise normal swap
will reclaim them.

For the third issue, the previous post adds global accounting and a
separate RSS count for MADV_FREE pages.  The problem is we never get
accurate accounting for MADV_FREE pages.  The pages are mapped to
userspace, can be dirtied without notice from kernel side.  To get
accurate accounting, we could write protect the page, but then there is
extra page fault overhead, which people don't want to pay.  Jemalloc
guys have concerns about the inaccurate accounting, so this post drops
the accounting patches temporarily.  The info exported to
/proc/pid/smaps for MADV_FREE pages are kept, which is the only place we
can get accurate accounting right now.

This patch (of 6):

Johannes pointed out TTU_LZFREE is unnecessary.  It's true because we
always have the flag set if we want to do an unmap.  For cases we don't
do an unmap, the TTU_LZFREE part of code should never run.

Also the TTU_UNMAP is unnecessary.  If no other flags set (for example,
TTU_MIGRATION), an unmap is implied.

The patch includes Johannes's cleanup and dead TTU_ACTION macro removal
code

The backoff mechanism is not needed.  If we have MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES
loops without progress, we'll OOM anyway; backing off might cut one or
two iterations off that in the rare OOM case.  If we have intermittent
success reclaiming a few pages, the backoff function gets reset also,
and so is of little help in these scenarios.

We might want a backoff function for when there IS progress, but not
enough to be satisfactory.  But this isn't that.  Remove it.

NR_PAGES_SCANNED counts number of pages scanned since the last page free
event in the allocator.  This was used primarily to measure the
reclaimability of zones and nodes, and determine when reclaim should
give up on them.  In that role, it has been replaced in the preceding
patches by a different mechanism.

Being implemented as an efficient vmstat counter, it was automatically
exported to userspace as well.  It's however unlikely that anyone
outside the kernel is using this counter in any meaningful way.

Remove the counter and the unused pgdat_reclaimable().

Commit 246e87a9 ("memcg: fix get_scan_count() for small targets")
sought to avoid high reclaim priorities for memcg by forcing it to scan
a minimum amount of pages when lru_pages >> priority yielded nothing.
This was done at a time when reclaim decisions like dirty throttling
were tied to the priority level.

Nowadays, the only meaningful thing still tied to priority dropping
below DEF_PRIORITY - 2 is gating whether laptop_mode=1 is generally
allowed to write.  But that is from an era where direct reclaim was
still allowed to call ->writepage, and kswapd nowadays avoids writes
until it's scanned every clean page in the system.  Potential changes to
how quick sc->may_writepage could trigger are of little concern.

Remove the force_scan stuff, as well as the ugly multi-pass target
calculation that it necessitated.

Commit b95a2f2d ("mm: vmscan: convert global reclaim to per-memcg

over all cgroups, had to restrict this forceful behavior to
unreclaimable zones in order to prevent massive overreclaim with many
cgroups.

The latter patch effectively neutered the behavior completely for all
but extreme memory pressure.  But in those situations we might as well
drop the reclaimers to lower priority levels.  Remove the check.

Patch series "mm: kswapd spinning on unreclaimable nodes - fixes and
cleanups".

Jia reported a scenario in which the kswapd of a node indefinitely spins
at 100% CPU usage.  We have seen similar cases at Facebook.

The kernel's current method of judging its ability to reclaim a node (or
whether to back off and sleep) is based on the amount of scanned pages
in proportion to the amount of reclaimable pages.  In Jia's and our
scenarios, there are no reclaimable pages in the node, however, and the
condition for backing off is never met.  Kswapd busyloops in an attempt
to restore the watermarks while having nothing to work with.

This series reworks the definition of an unreclaimable node based not on
scanning but on whether kswapd is able to actually reclaim pages in
MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES (16) consecutive runs.  This is the same criteria
the page allocator uses for giving up on direct reclaim and invoking the
OOM killer.  If it cannot free any pages, kswapd will go to sleep and
leave further attempts to direct reclaim invocations, which will either
make progress and re-enable kswapd, or invoke the OOM killer.

Patch #1 fixes the immediate problem Jia reported, the remainder are
smaller fixlets, cleanups, and overall phasing out of the old method.

Patch #6 is the odd one out.  It's a nice cleanup to get_scan_count(),
and directly related to #5, but in itself not relevant to the series.

If the whole series is too ambitious for 4.11, I would consider the
first three patches fixes, the rest cleanups.

This patch (of 9):

Jia He reports a problem with kswapd spinning at 100% CPU when
requesting more hugepages than memory available in the system:

$ echo 4000 >/proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages

top - 13:42:59 up  3:37,  1 user,  load average: 1.09, 1.03, 1.01
Tasks:   1 total,   1 running,   0 sleeping,   0 stopped,   0 zombie
%Cpu(s):  0.0 us, 12.5 sy,  0.0 ni, 85.5 id,  2.0 wa,  0.0 hi,  0.0 si,  0.0 st
KiB Mem:  31371520 total, 30915136 used,   456384 free,      320 buffers
KiB Swap:  6284224 total,   115712 used,  6168512 free.    48192 cached Mem

  PID USER      PR  NI    VIRT    RES    SHR S  %CPU  %MEM     TIME+ COMMAND
   76 root      20   0       0      0      0 R 100.0 0.000 217:17.29 kswapd3

At that time, there are no reclaimable pages left in the node, but as
kswapd fails to restore the high watermarks it refuses to go to sleep.

Kswapd needs to back away from nodes that fail to balance.  Up until
commit 1d82de61 ("mm, vmscan: make kswapd reclaim in terms of
nodes") kswapd had such a mechanism.  It considered zones whose
theoretically reclaimable pages it had reclaimed six times over as
unreclaimable and backed away from them.  This guard was erroneously
removed as the patch changed the definition of a balanced node.

However, simply restoring this code wouldn't help in the case reported
here: there *are* no reclaimable pages that could be scanned until the
threshold is met.  Kswapd would stay awake anyway.

Introduce a new and much simpler way of backing off.  If kswapd runs
through MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES (16) cycles without reclaiming a single
page, make it back off from the node.  This is the same number of shots
direct reclaim takes before declaring OOM.  Kswapd will go to sleep on
that node until a direct reclaimer manages to reclaim some pages, thus
proving the node reclaimable again.

Each slab kmem cache has per cpu array caches.  The array caches are
created when the kmem_cache is created, either via kmem_cache_create()
or lazily when the first object is allocated in context of a kmem
enabled memcg.  Array caches are replaced by writing to /proc/slabinfo.

Array caches are protected by holding slab_mutex or disabling
interrupts.  Array cache allocation and replacement is done by
__do_tune_cpucache() which holds slab_mutex and calls
kick_all_cpus_sync() to interrupt all remote processors which confirms
there are no references to the old array caches.

IPIs are needed when replacing array caches.  But when creating a new
array cache, there's no need to send IPIs because there cannot be any
references to the new cache.  Outside of memcg kmem accounting these
IPIs occur at boot time, so they're not a problem.  But with memcg kmem
accounting each container can create kmem caches, so the IPIs are
wasteful.

Avoid unnecessary IPIs when creating array caches.

In many of clk_disable() implementations, it is a no-op for a NULL
pointer input, but this is one of the exceptions.

Making it treewide consistent will allow clock consumers to call
clk_disable() without NULL pointer check.

Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
 "Fourteen audit patches for v4.12 that span the full range of fixes,
  new features, and internal cleanups.

  We have a patches to move to 64-bit timestamps, convert refcounts from
  atomic_t to refcount_t, track PIDs using the pid struct instead of
  pid_t, convert our own private audit buffer cache to a standard
  kmem_cache, log kernel module names when they are unloaded, and
  normalize the NETFILTER_PKT to make the userspace folks happier.

  From a fixes perspective, the most important is likely the auditd
  connection tracking RCU fix; it was a rather brain dead bug that I'll
  take the blame for, but thankfully it didn't seem to affect many
  people (only one report).

  I think the patch subject lines and commit descriptions do a pretty
  good job of explaining the details and why the changes are important
  so I'll point you there instead of duplicating it here; as usual, if
  you have any questions you know where to find us.

  We also manage to take out more code than we put in this time, that
  always makes me happy :)"

Pull livepatch updates from Jiri Kosina:

 - a per-task consistency model is being added for architectures that
   support reliable stack dumping (extending this, currently rather
   trivial set, is currently in the works).

   This extends the nature of the types of patches that can be applied
   by live patching infrastructure. The code stems from the design
   proposal made [1] back in November 2014. It's a hybrid of SUSE's
   kGraft and RH's kpatch, combining advantages of both: it uses
   kGraft's per-task consistency and syscall barrier switching combined
   with kpatch's stack trace switching. There are also a number of
   fallback options which make it quite flexible.

   Most of the heavy lifting done by Josh Poimboeuf with help from
   Miroslav Benes and Petr Mladek

Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij:
 "This is the bulk of pin control changes for the v4.12 cycle.

  The extra week before the merge window actually resulted in some of
  the type of fixes that usually arrive after the merge window already
  starting to trickle in from eager developers using -next, I'm
  impressed.

  I have recruited a Samsung subsubsystem maintainer (Krzysztof) to deal
  with the onset of Samsung patches. It works great.

  Apart from that it is a boring round, just incremental updates and
  fixes all over the place, no serious core changes or anything exciting
  like that. The most pleasing to see is Julia Cartwrights work to audit
  the irqchip-providing drivers for realtime locking compliance. It's
  one of those "I should really get around to looking into that" things
  that have been on my TODO list since forever.

  Summary:

  Core changes:

   - add bi-directional and output-enable pin configurations to the
     generic bindings and generic pin controlling core.

  New drivers or subdrivers:

   - Armada 37xx SoC pin controller and GPIO support.

   - Axis ARTPEC-6 SoC pin controller support.

   - AllWinner A64 R_PIO controller support, and opening up the
     AllWinner sunxi driver for ARM64 use.

   - Rockchip RK3328 support.

   - Renesas R-Car H3 ES2.0 support.

   - STM32F469 support in the STM32 driver.

   - Aspeed G4 and G5 pin controller support.

  Improvements:

   - a whole slew of realtime improvements to drivers implementing
     irqchips: BCM, AMD, SiRF, sunxi, rockchip.

   - switch meson driver to get the GPIO ranges from the device tree.

   - input schmitt trigger support on the Rockchip driver.

   - enable the sunxi (AllWinner) driver to also be used on ARM64
     silicon.

   - name the Qualcomm QDF2xxx GPIO lines.

   - support GMMR GPIO regions on the Intel Cherryview. This fixes a
     serialization problem on these platforms.

   - pad retention support for the Samsung Exynos 5433.

   - handle suspend-to-ram in the AT91-pio4 driver.

   - pin configuration support in the Aspeed driver.

  Cleanups:

   - the final name of Rockchip RK1108 was RV1108 so rename the driver
     and variables to stay consistent"

net: thunderx: Adds XDP support

This patch series adds support for XDP to ThunderX NIC driver
which is used on CN88xx, CN81xx and CN83xx platforms.

Patches 1-4 are performance improvement and cleanup patches
which are done keeping XDP performance bottlenecks in view.
Rest of the patches adds actual XDP support.
====================
Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Driver follows a method of taking one extra reference on the
page for recycling which is fine in usual packet path where
each 64KB page is segmented into multiple receive buffers.

But in XDP mode since there is just one receive buffer per
page taking extra page reference itself becomes big bottleneck
consuming ~50% of CPU cycles due to atomic operations.

This patch adds a internal ref count in pgcache for each
page and additional page references are taken in a batch
instead of just one at a time. Internal i.e 'pgcache->ref_count'
and page's i.e 'page->_refcount' counters are compared to check
page's recyclability.

When in XDP mode reserve XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM bytes at the start
of receive buffer for XDP program to modify headers and adjust
packet start. Additional code changes done to handle such packets.
Signed-off-by: NSunil Goutham <sgoutham@cavium.com>
Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Adds support for XDP_TX i.e transmits packet out of
the XDP TX queue mapped to the corresponding Rx queue
on which packet is received.

Since SQ for XDP TX will be used only on a single cpu i.e
SQ description creation and freeing, using atomic free count
is not necessary and will become a bottleneck. Hence added
a separate 'xdp_free_cnt' used for SQs designated for XDP
to track descriptor free count.

Changes also include
- A new entry 'xdp_page' is added to save transmitted packet's
  page pointer for later cleanup.
- XDP Tx SQ's doorbell is ringed once per NAPI instance.
- Retrieving designated SQ for packets being sent out by stack
  via 'nicvf_xmit'.

Adds support for XDP_DROP.
Also since in XDP mode there is just a single buffer per page,
made changes to recycle DMA mapping info as well along with pages.

Adds basic XDP support i.e attaching a BPF program to an
interface. Also takes care of allocating separate Tx queues
for XDP path and for network stack packet transmission.

This patch doesn't support handling of any of the XDP actions,
all are treated as XDP_PASS i.e packets will be handed over to
the network stack.

Changes also involve allocating one receive buffer per page in XDP
mode and multiple in normal mode i.e when no BPF program is attached.

Get rid of unnecessary double pointer references and type casting
in receive buffer allocation code.
