git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger: "It's been usually busy for summer, with most of the efforts centered around TCMU developments and various target-core + fabric driver bug fixing activities. Not particularly large in terms of LoC, but lots of smaller patches from many different folks. The highlights include: - ibmvscsis logical partition manager support (Michael Cyr + Bryant Ly) - Convert target/iblock WRITE_SAME to blkdev_issue_zeroout (hch + nab) - Add support for TMR percpu LUN reference counting (nab) - Fix a potential deadlock between EXTENDED_COPY and iscsi shutdown (Bart) - Fix COMPARE_AND_WRITE caw_sem leak during se_cmd quiesce (Jiang Yi) - Fix TMCU module removal (Xiubo Li) - Fix iser-target OOPs during login failure (Andrea Righi + Sagi) - Breakup target-core free_device backend driver callback (mnc) - Perform TCMU add/delete/reconfig synchronously (mnc) - Fix TCMU multiple UIO open/close sequences (mnc) - Fix TCMU CHECK_CONDITION sense handling (mnc) - Fix target-core SAM_STAT_BUSY + TASK_SET_FULL handling (mnc + nab) - Introduce TYPE_ZBC support in PSCSI (Damien Le Moal) - Fix possible TCMU memory leak + OOPs when recalculating cmd base size (Xiubo Li + Bryant Ly + Damien Le Moal + mnc) - Add login_keys_workaround attribute for non RFC initiators (Robert LeBlanc + Arun Easi + nab)" * 'for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending: (68 commits) iscsi-target: Add login_keys_workaround attribute for non RFC initiators Revert "qla2xxx: Fix incorrect tcm_qla2xxx_free_cmd use during TMR ABORT" tcmu: clean up the code and with one small fix tcmu: Fix possbile memory leak / OOPs when recalculating cmd base size target: export lio pgr/alua support as device attr target: Fix return sense reason in target_scsi3_emulate_pr_out target: Fix cmd size for PR-OUT in passthrough_parse_cdb tcmu: Fix dev_config_store target: pscsi: Introduce TYPE_ZBC support target: Use macro for WRITE_VERIFY_32 operation codes target: fix SAM_STAT_BUSY/TASK_SET_FULL handling target: remove transport_complete pscsi: finish cmd processing from pscsi_req_done tcmu: fix sense handling during completion target: add helper to copy sense to se_cmd buffer target: do not require a transport_complete for SCF_TRANSPORT_TASK_SENSE target: make device_mutex and device_list static tcmu: Fix flushing cmd entry dcache page tcmu: fix multiple uio open/close sequences tcmu: drop configured check in destroy ...

2017-07-13Documentation: ABI: mtd: describe "offset" more preciselyRafał Miłecki1-3/+3
So far Linux supported only two levels of MTD devices so we didn't need a very precise description for this sysfs file. With commit 97519dc52b44a ("mtd: partitions: add support for subpartitions") there is support for a tree structure so we should have more precise description. Using "parent" and "flash device" makes it more accurate. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Brian Norris <[email protected]>
2017-07-13ext2: Fix memory leak when truncate races ext2_get_blocksErnesto A. Fernández1-0/+1
Buffer heads referencing indirect blocks may not be released if the file is truncated at the right time. This happens because ext2_get_branch() returns NULL when it finds the whole chain of indirect blocks already set, and when truncate alters the chain this value of NULL is treated as the address of the last head to be released. Handle this in the same way as it's done after the got_it label. Signed-off-by: Ernesto A. Fernández <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <[email protected]>

2017-07-12disable new gcc-7.1.1 warnings for nowLinus Torvalds1-0/+3
I made the mistake of upgrading my desktop to the new Fedora 26 that comes with gcc-7.1.1. There's nothing wrong per se that I've noticed, but I now have 1500 lines of warnings, mostly from the new format-truncation warning triggering all over the tree. We use 'snprintf()' and friends in a lot of places, and often know that the numbers are fairly small (ie a controller index or similar), but gcc doesn't know that, and sees an 'int', and thinks that it could be some huge number. And then complains when our buffers are not able to fit the name for the ten millionth controller. These warnings aren't necessarily bad per se, and we probably want to look through them subsystem by subsystem, but at least during the merge window they just mean that I can't even see if somebody is introducing any *real* problems when I pull. So warnings disabled for now. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>

2017-07-12writeback: rework wb_[dec|inc]_stat family of functionsNikolay Borisov4-31/+18
Currently the writeback statistics code uses a percpu counters to hold various statistics. Furthermore we have 2 families of functions - those which disable local irq and those which doesn't and whose names begin with double underscore. However, they both end up calling __add_wb_stats which in turn calls percpu_counter_add_batch which is already irq-safe. Exploiting this fact allows to eliminated the __wb_* functions since they don't add any further protection than we already have. Furthermore, refactor the wb_* function to call __add_wb_stat directly without the irq-disabling dance. This will likely result in better runtime of code which deals with modifying the stat counters. While at it also document why percpu_counter_add_batch is in fact preempt and irq-safe since at least 3 people got confused.

2017-07-12mm, migration: do not trigger OOM killer when migrating memoryMichal Hocko2-2/+3
Page migration (for memory hotplug, soft_offline_page or mbind) needs to allocate a new memory. This can trigger an oom killer if the target memory is depleated. Although quite unlikely, still possible, especially for the memory hotplug (offlining of memoery). Up to now we didn't really have reasonable means to back off. __GFP_NORETRY can fail just too easily and __GFP_THISNODE sticks to a single node and that is not suitable for all callers. But now that we have __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL we should use it. It is preferable to fail the migration than disrupt the system by killing some processes.

2017-07-12drm/i915: use __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAILMichal Hocko1-1/+2
Commit 24f8e00a8a2e ("drm/i915: Prefer to report ENOMEM rather than incur the oom for gfx allocations") has tried to remove disruptive OOM killer because the userspace should be able to cope with allocation failures. At the time only __GFP_NORETRY could achieve that and it turned out that this would fail the allocations just too easily. So "drm/i915: Remove __GFP_NORETRY from our buffer allocator" removed it and hoped for a better solution. __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL is that solution. It will keep retrying the allocation until there is no more progress and we would go OOM. Instead we fail the allocation and let the caller to deal with it.

2017-07-12xfs: map KM_MAYFAIL to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAILMichal Hocko1-0/+10
KM_MAYFAIL didn't have any suitable GFP_FOO counterpart until recently so it relied on the default page allocator behavior for the given set of flags. This means that small allocations actually never failed. Now that we have __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL flag which works independently on the allocation request size we can map KM_MAYFAIL to it. The allocator will try as hard as it can to fulfill the request but fails eventually if the progress cannot be made. It does so without triggering the OOM killer which can be seen as an improvement because KM_MAYFAIL users should be able to deal with allocation failures.

2017-07-12mm, tree wide: replace __GFP_REPEAT by __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL with more useful ↵Michal Hocko24-47/+86
semantic __GFP_REPEAT was designed to allow retry-but-eventually-fail semantic to the page allocator. This has been true but only for allocations requests larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER. It has been always ignored for smaller sizes. This is a bit unfortunate because there is no way to express the same semantic for those requests and they are considered too important to fail so they might end up looping in the page allocator for ever, similarly to GFP_NOFAIL requests. Now that the whole tree has been cleaned up and accidental or misled usage of __GFP_REPEAT flag has been removed for !costly requests we can give the original flag a better name and more importantly a more useful semantic. Let's rename it to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL which tells the user that the allocator would try really hard but there is no promise of a success. This will work independent of the order and overrides the default allocator behavior. Page allocator users have several levels of guarantee vs. cost options (take GFP_KERNEL as an example) - GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_RECLAIM - optimistic allocation without _any_ attempt to free memory at all. The most light weight mode which even doesn't kick the background reclaim. Should be used carefully because it might deplete the memory and the next user might hit the more aggressive reclaim - GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (or GFP_NOWAIT)- optimistic allocation without any attempt to free memory from the current context but can wake kswapd to reclaim memory if the zone is below the low watermark. Can be used from either atomic contexts or when the request is a performance optimization and there is another fallback for a slow path. - (GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_HIGH) & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (aka GFP_ATOMIC) - non sleeping allocation with an expensive fallback so it can access some portion of memory reserves. Usually used from interrupt/bh context with an expensive slow path fallback. - GFP_KERNEL - both background and direct reclaim are allowed and the _default_ page allocator behavior is used. That means that !costly allocation requests are basically nofail but there is no guarantee of that behavior so failures have to be checked properly by callers (e.g. OOM killer victim is allowed to fail currently). - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NORETRY - overrides the default allocator behavior and all allocation requests fail early rather than cause disruptive reclaim (one round of reclaim in this implementation). The OOM killer is not invoked. - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL - overrides the default allocator behavior and all allocation requests try really hard. The request will fail if the reclaim cannot make any progress. The OOM killer won't be triggered. - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOFAIL - overrides the default allocator behavior and all allocation requests will loop endlessly until they succeed. This might be really dangerous especially for larger orders. Existing users of __GFP_REPEAT are changed to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL because they already had their semantic. No new users are added. __alloc_pages_slowpath is changed to bail out for __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL if there is no progress and we have already passed the OOM point. This means that all the reclaim opportunities have been exhausted except the most disruptive one (the OOM killer) and a user defined fallback behavior is more sensible than keep retrying in the page allocator.
