      mm: page_alloc: revert NUMA aspect of fair allocation policy · fff4068c
      由 Johannes Weiner 提交于 
      Commit 81c0a2bb ("mm: page_alloc: fair zone allocator policy") meant
to bring aging fairness among zones in system, but it was overzealous
and badly regressed basic workloads on NUMA systems.

Due to the way kswapd and page allocator interacts, we still want to
make sure that all zones in any given node are used equally for all
allocations to maximize memory utilization and prevent thrashing on the
highest zone in the node.

While the same principle applies to NUMA nodes - memory utilization is
obviously improved by spreading allocations throughout all nodes -
remote references can be costly and so many workloads prefer locality
over memory utilization.  The original change assumed that
zone_reclaim_mode would be a good enough predictor for that, but it
turned out to be as indicative as a coin flip.

Revert the NUMA aspect of the fairness until we can find a proper way to
make it configurable and agree on a sane default.

      Revert "mm: page_alloc: exclude unreclaimable allocations from zone fairness policy" · 8798cee2
      由 Mel Gorman 提交于 
      This reverts commit 73f038b8.  The NUMA behaviour of this patch is
less than ideal.  An alternative approch is to interleave allocations
only within local zones which is implemented in the next patch.

      mm: Fix NULL pointer dereference in madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) support · ee53664b
      由 Kirill A. Shutemov 提交于 
      Sasha Levin found a NULL pointer dereference that is due to a missing
page table lock, which in turn is due to the pmd entry in question being
a transparent huge-table entry.

The code - introduced in commit 1998cc04 ("mm: make
madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) support swap file prefetch") - correctly checks
for this situation using pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), but it
turns out that that function doesn't work correctly.

pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() expected that pmd_bad() would
trigger if the transparent hugepage bit was set, but it doesn't do that
if pmd_numa() is also set. Note that the NUMA bit only gets set on real
NUMA machines, so people trying to reproduce this on most normal
development systems would never actually trigger this.

Fix it by removing the very subtle (and subtly incorrect) expectation,
and instead just checking pmd_trans_huge() explicitly.

[ Additionally remove the now stale test for pmd_trans_huge() inside the
  pmd_bad() case - Linus ]

      Pull Xen bugfixes from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
 - Fix balloon driver for auto-translate guests (PVHVM, ARM) to not use
   scratch pages.
 - Fix block API header for ARM32 and ARM64 to have proper layout
 - On ARM when mapping guests, stick on PTE_SPECIAL
 - When using SWIOTLB under ARM, don't call swiotlb functions twice
 - When unmapping guests memory and if we fail, don't return pages which
   failed to be unmapped.
 - Grant driver was using the wrong address on ARM.

Pull ftrace fix from Steven Rostedt:
 "This fixes a long standing bug in the ftrace profiler.  The problem is
  that the profiler only initializes the online CPUs, and not possible
  CPUs.  This causes issues if the user takes CPUs online or offline
  while the profiler is running.

  If we online a CPU after starting the profiler, we lose all the trace
  information on the CPU going online.

  If we offline a CPU after running a test and start a new test, it will
  not clear the old data from that CPU.

  This bug causes incorrect data to be reported to the user if they
  online or offline CPUs during the profiling"
