Patch series "mm: allow pte_offset_map[_lock]() to fail", v2.
What is it all about? Some mmap_lock avoidance i.e. latency reduction.
Initially just for the case of collapsing shmem or file pages to THPs; but
likely to be relied upon later in other contexts e.g. freeing of empty
page tables (but that's not work I'm doing). mmap_write_lock avoidance
when collapsing to anon THPs? Perhaps, but again that's not work I've
done: a quick attempt was not as easy as the shmem/file case.
I would much prefer not to have to make these small but wide-ranging
changes for such a niche case; but failed to find another way, and have
heard that shmem MADV_COLLAPSE's usefulness is being limited by that
mmap_write_lock it currently requires.
These changes (though of course not these exact patches) have been in
Google's data centre kernel for three years now: we do rely upon them.
What is this preparatory series about?
The current mmap locking will not be enough to guard against that tricky
transition between pmd entry pointing to page table, and empty pmd entry,
and pmd entry pointing to huge page: pte_offset_map() will have to
validate the pmd entry for itself, returning NULL if no page table is
there. What to do about that varies: sometimes nearby error handling
indicates just to skip it; but in many cases an ACTION_AGAIN or "goto
again" is appropriate (and if that risks an infinite loop, then there must
have been an oops, or pfn 0 mistaken for page table, before).
Given the likely extension to freeing empty page tables, I have not
limited this set of changes to a THP config; and it has been easier, and
sets a better example, if each site is given appropriate handling: even
where deeper study might prove that failure could only happen if the pmd
table were corrupted.
Several of the patches are, or include, cleanup on the way; and by the
end, pmd_trans_unstable() and suchlike are deleted: pte_offset_map() and
pte_offset_map_lock() then handle those original races and more. Most
uses of pte_lockptr() are deprecated, with pte_offset_map_nolock() taking
its place.
This patch (of 32):
Use pmdp_get_lockless() in preference to READ_ONCE(*pmdp), to get a more
reliable result with PAE (or READ_ONCE as before without PAE); and remove
the unnecessary extra barrier()s which got left behind in its callers.
HOWEVER: Note the small print in linux/pgtable.h, where it was designed
specifically for fast GUP, and depends on interrupts being disabled for
its full guarantee: most callers which have been added (here and before)
do NOT have interrupts disabled, so there is still some need for caution.

Commit 71024cb4a0bf ("frontswap: remove frontswap_tmem_exclusive_gets")
removed support for exclusive loads from frontswap as it was not used.
Bring back exclusive loads support to frontswap by adding an "exclusive"
output parameter to frontswap_ops->load.
On the zswap side, add a module parameter to enable/disable exclusive
loads, and a config option to control the boot default value. Refactor
zswap entry invalidation in zswap_frontswap_invalidate_page() into
zswap_invalidate_entry() to reuse it in zswap_frontswap_load() if
exclusive loads are enabled.
With exclusive loads, we avoid having two copies of the same page in
memory (compressed & uncompressed) after faulting it in from zswap. On
the other hand, if the page is to be reclaimed again without being
dirtied, it will be re-compressed. Compression is not usually slow, and a
page that was just faulted in is less likely to be reclaimed again soon.

managed pages has already been set to 0 in free_area_init_core_hotplug(),
via zone_init_internals() on each zone. It's pointless to reset again.
Furthermore, reset_node_managed_pages() no longer needs to be exposed
outside of mm/memblock.c. Remove declaration in include/linux/memblock.h
and define it as static.
In addtion to this, the only caller of reset_node_managed_pages() is
reset_all_zones_managed_pages(), which is annotated with __init, so it
should be safe to also mark reset_node_managed_pages() as __init.

Overlayfs creates the real underlying files with fake f_path, whose
f_inode is on the underlying fs and f_path on overlayfs.
Those real files were open with FMODE_NONOTIFY, because fsnotify code was
not prapared to handle fsnotify hooks on files with fake path correctly
and fanotify would report unexpected event->fd with fake overlayfs path,
when the underlying fs was being watched.
Teach fsnotify to handle events on the real files, and do not set real
files to FMODE_NONOTIFY to allow operations on real file (e.g. open,
access, modify, close) to generate async and permission events.
Because fsnotify does not have notifications on address space
operations, we do not need to worry about ->vm_file not reporting
events to a watched overlayfs when users are accessing a mapped
overlayfs file.

ARM exclusively uses GENERIC_IRQ_MULTI_HANDLER, so at some point
set_handle_irq() needs to be called to handle system-wide
interrupts.
For all DT-enabled boards, this call happens down in the
drivers/irqchip subsystem, after locating the target irqchip
driver from the device tree.
We still have a few instances of the boardfiles with machine
descriptors passing a machine-specific .handle_irq() to the
ARM kernel core.
Get rid of this by letting the few remaining machines consistently
call set_handle_irq() from the end of the .init_irq() callback
instead and diet down one member from the machine descriptor.

posix_timer_add() tries to allocate a posix timer ID by starting from the
cached ID which was stored by the last successful allocation.
This is done in a loop searching the ID space for a free slot one by
one. The loop has to terminate when the search wrapped around to the
starting point.
But that's racy vs. establishing the starting point. That is read out
lockless, which leads to the following problem:
CPU0 CPU1
posix_timer_add()
start = sig->posix_timer_id;
lock(hash_lock);
... posix_timer_add()
if (++sig->posix_timer_id < 0)
start = sig->posix_timer_id;
sig->posix_timer_id = 0;
So CPU1 can observe a negative start value, i.e. -1, and the loop break
never happens because the condition can never be true:
if (sig->posix_timer_id == start)
break;
While this is unlikely to ever turn into an endless loop as the ID space is
huge (INT_MAX), the racy read of the start value caught the attention of
KCSAN and Dmitry unearthed that incorrectness.
Rewrite it so that all id operations are under the hash lock.

write mode. In this scenario, all zerocopy receives are periodically
blocked during that period of time - though in principle, the memory
ranges being used by TCP are not touched by the operations that need
the mmap write lock. This results in performance degradation.
Now consider another workload where the mmap lock is never taken in
write mode, but there are many TCP connections using receive zerocopy
that are concurrently receiving. These connections all take the mmap
lock in read mode, but this does induce a lot of contention and atomic
ops for this process-wide lock. This results in additional CPU
overhead caused by contending on the cache line for this lock.
However, with per-vma locking, both of these problems can be avoided.
As a test, I ran an RPC-style request/response workload with 4KB
payloads and receive zerocopy enabled, with 100 simultaneous TCP
connections. I measured perf cycles within the
find_tcp_vma/mmap_read_lock/mmap_read_unlock codepath, with and
without per-vma locking enabled.
When using process-wide mmap semaphore read locking, about 1% of
measured perf cycles were within this path. With per-VMA locking, this
value dropped to about 0.45%.

This is part of the effort to remove the empty element at the end of
ctl_table structs. "child" was a deprecated elem in this struct and was
being used to differentiate between two types of ctl_tables: "normal"
and "permanently emtpy".
What changed?:
* Replace "child" with an enumeration that will have two values: the
default (0) and the permanently empty (1). The latter is left at zero
so when struct ctl_table is created with kzalloc or in a local
context, it will have the zero value by default. We document the
new enum with kdoc.
* Remove the "empty child" check from sysctl_check_table
* Remove count_subheaders function as there is no longer a need to
calculate how many headers there are for every child
* Remove the recursive call to unregister_sysctl_table as there is no
need to traverse down the child tree any longer
* Add a new SYSCTL_PERM_EMPTY_DIR binary flag
* Remove the last remanence of child from partport/procfs.c

When an ATA port is resumed from sleep, the port is reset and a power
management request issued to libata EH to reset the port and rescanning
the device(s) attached to the port. Device rescanning is done by
scheduling an ata_scsi_dev_rescan() work, which will execute
scsi_rescan_device().
However, scsi_rescan_device() takes the generic device lock, which is
also taken by dpm_resume() when the SCSI device is resumed as well. If
a device rescan execution starts before the completion of the SCSI
device resume, the rcu locking used to refresh the cached VPD pages of
the device, combined with the generic device locking from
scsi_rescan_device() and from dpm_resume() can cause a deadlock.
Avoid this situation by changing struct ata_port scsi_rescan_task to be
a delayed work instead of a simple work_struct. ata_scsi_dev_rescan() is
modified to check if the SCSI device associated with the ATA device that
must be rescanned is not suspended. If the SCSI device is still
suspended, ata_scsi_dev_rescan() returns early and reschedule itself for
execution after an arbitrary delay of 5ms.

These commits
a494aef23dfc ("PCI: hv: Replace retarget_msi_interrupt_params with hyperv_pcpu_input_arg")
2c6ba4216844 ("PCI: hv: Enable PCI pass-thru devices in Confidential VMs")
update the Hyper-V virtual PCI driver to use the hyperv_pcpu_input_arg
because that memory will be correctly marked as decrypted or encrypted
for all VM types (CoCo or normal). But problems ensue when CPUs in the
VM go online or offline after virtual PCI devices have been configured.
When a CPU is brought online, the hyperv_pcpu_input_arg for that CPU is
initialized by hv_cpu_init() running under state CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN.
But this state occurs after state CPUHP_AP_IRQ_AFFINITY_ONLINE, which
may call the virtual PCI driver and fault trying to use the as yet
uninitialized hyperv_pcpu_input_arg. A similar problem occurs in a CoCo
VM if the MMIO read and write hypercalls are used from state
CPUHP_AP_IRQ_AFFINITY_ONLINE.
When a CPU is taken offline, IRQs may be reassigned in state
CPUHP_TEARDOWN_CPU. Again, the virtual PCI driver may fault trying to
use the hyperv_pcpu_input_arg that has already been freed by a
higher state.
Fix the onlining problem by adding state CPUHP_AP_HYPERV_ONLINE
immediately after CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE (similar to CPUHP_AP_KVM_ONLINE)
and before CPUHP_AP_IRQ_AFFINITY_ONLINE. Use this new state for
Hyper-V initialization so that hyperv_pcpu_input_arg is allocated
early enough.
Fix the offlining problem by not freeing hyperv_pcpu_input_arg when
a CPU goes offline. Retain the allocated memory, and reuse it if
the CPU comes back online later.
