iov_iter_get_pages(iter, pages, maxsize, &start) grabs references pinning
the pages of up to maxsize of (contiguous) data from iter.  Returns the
amount of memory grabbed or -error.  In case of success, the requested
area begins at offset start in pages[0] and runs through pages[1], etc.
Less than requested amount might be returned - either because the contiguous
area in the beginning of iterator is smaller than requested, or because
the kernel failed to pin that many pages.

On 64-bit systems, O_LARGEFILE is automatically added to flags inside
the open() syscall (also openat(), blkdev_open(), etc).  Userspace
therefore defines O_LARGEFILE to be 0 - you can use it, but it's a
no-op.  Everything should be O_LARGEFILE by default.

But: when fanotify does create_fd() it uses dentry_open(), which skips
all that.  And userspace can't set O_LARGEFILE in fanotify_init()
because it's defined to 0.  So if fanotify gets an event regarding a
large file, the read() will just fail with -EOVERFLOW.

This patch adds O_LARGEFILE to fanotify_init()'s event_f_flags on 64-bit
systems, using the same test as open()/openat()/etc.

This reverts commit 0bf1457f ("mm: vmscan: do not swap anon pages
just because free+file is low") because it introduced a regression in
mostly-anonymous workloads, where reclaim would become ineffective and
trap every allocating task in direct reclaim.

The problem is that there is a runaway feedback loop in the scan balance
between file and anon, where the balance tips heavily towards a tiny
thrashing file LRU and anonymous pages are no longer being looked at.
The commit in question removed the safe guard that would detect such
situations and respond with forced anonymous reclaim.

This commit was part of a series to fix premature swapping in loads with
relatively little cache, and while it made a small difference, the cure
is obviously worse than the disease.  Revert it.

autofs needs to be able to see private data dentry flags for its dentrys
that are being created but not yet hashed and for its dentrys that have
been rmdir()ed but not yet freed.  It needs to do this so it can block
processes in these states until a status has been returned to indicate
the given operation is complete.

It does this by keeping two lists, active and expring, of dentrys in
this state and uses ->d_release() to keep them stable while it checks
the reference count to determine if they should be used.

But with the recent lockref changes dentrys being freed sometimes don't
transition to a reference count of 0 before being freed so autofs can
occassionally use a dentry that is invalid which can lead to a panic.

  1347                         BUG();

After commit 0cd6144a ("mm + fs: prepare for non-page entries in
page cache radix trees") this comment and BUG() are out of date because
exceptional entries can now appear in all mappings - as shadows of
recently evicted pages.

However, as Hugh Dickins notes,

  "it is truly surprising for a PAGECACHE_TAG_WRITEBACK (and probably
   any other PAGECACHE_TAG_*) to appear on an exceptional entry.

   I expect it comes down to an occasional race in RCU lookup of the
   radix_tree: lacking absolute synchronization, we might sometimes
   catch an exceptional entry, with the tag which really belongs with
   the unexceptional entry which was there an instant before."

And indeed, not only is the tree walk lockless, the tags are also read
in chunks, one radix tree node at a time.  There is plenty of time for
page reclaim to swoop in and replace a page that was already looked up
as tagged with a shadow entry.

Remove the BUG() and update the comment.  While reviewing all other
lookup sites for whether they properly deal with shadow entries of
evicted pages, update all the comments and fix memcg file charge moving
to not miss shmem/tmpfs swapcache pages.

The compaction freepage scanner implementation in isolate_freepages()
starts by taking the current cc->free_pfn value as the first pfn.  In a
for loop, it scans from this first pfn to the end of the pageblock, and
then subtracts pageblock_nr_pages from the first pfn to obtain the first
pfn for the next for loop iteration.

This means that when cc->free_pfn starts at offset X rather than being
aligned on pageblock boundary, the scanner will start at offset X in all
scanned pageblock, ignoring potentially many free pages.  Currently this
can happen when

 a) zone's end pfn is not pageblock aligned, or

 b) through zone->compact_cached_free_pfn with CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE
    enabled and a hole spanning the beginning of a pageblock

This patch fixes the problem by aligning the initial pfn in
isolate_freepages() to pageblock boundary.  This also permits replacing
the end-of-pageblock alignment within the for loop with a simple
pageblock_nr_pages increment.

Currently, I am seeing the following when I `mount -t hugetlbfs /none

related to the fact that hugetlbfs is properly not correctly setting
itself up in this state?:

  Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000031
  Faulting instruction address: 0xc000000000245710

  HugePages_Rsvd:        0
  HugePages_Surp:        0
  Hugepagesize:         64 kB

HPAGE_SHIFT == 0 in this configuration, which indicates that hugepages
are not supported at boot-time, but this is only checked in
hugetlb_init().  Extract the check to a helper function, and use it in a
few relevant places.

This does make hugetlbfs not supported (not registered at all) in this
environment.  I believe this is fine, as there are no valid hugepages
and that won't change at runtime.

Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Various filesystems don't bother checking for a NULL ACL in
posix_acl_equiv_mode, and thus can dereference a NULL pointer when it
gets passed one. This usually happens from the NFS server, as the ACL tools
never pass a NULL ACL, but instead of one representing the mode bits.

Instead of adding boilerplat to all filesystems put this check into one place,
which will allow us to remove the check from other filesystems as well later
on.

likewise if freelist_idx_t is a short, then it should be 65535 not
65536.

This was leading to all kinds of random crashes on sparc64 where
PAGE_SIZE is 8192.  One problem shown was that if spinlock debugging was
enabled, we'd get deadlocks in copy_pte_range() or do_wp_page() with the
same cpu already holding a lock it shouldn't hold, or the lock belonging
to a completely unrelated process.

Commit a41adfaa ("slab: introduce byte sized index for the freelist
of a slab") changes the size of freelist index and also changes
prototype of accessor function to freelist index.  And there was a
mistake.

The mistake is that although it changes the size of freelist index
correctly, it changes the size of the index of freelist index
incorrectly.  With patch, freelist index can be 1 byte or 2 bytes, that
means that num of object on on a slab can be more than 255.  So we need
more than 1 byte for the index to find the index of free object on
freelist.  But, above patch makes this index type 1 byte, so slab which
have more than 255 objects cannot work properly and in consequence of
it, the system cannot boot.

This issue was reported by Steven King on m68knommu which would use
2 bytes freelist index:

To fix is easy.  To change the type of the index of freelist index on
accessor functions is enough to fix this bug.  Although 2 bytes is
enough, I use 4 bytes since it have no bad effect and make things more
easier.  This fix was suggested and tested by Steven in his original
report.
