Add a helper that calls remap_pfn_range for an struct io_mapping, relying
on the pgprot pre-validation done when creating the mapping instead of
doing it at runtime.

Patch series "add remap_pfn_range_notrack instead of reinventing it in i915", v2.
i915 has some reason to want to avoid the track_pfn_remap overhead in
remap_pfn_range. Add a function to the core VM to do just that rather
than reinventing the functionality poorly in the driver.
Note that the remap_io_sg path does get exercises when using Xorg on my
Thinkpad X1, so this should be considered lightly tested, I've not managed
to hit the remap_io_mapping path at all.
This patch (of 4):
Add a version of remap_pfn_range that does not call track_pfn_range. This
will be used to fix horrible abuses of VM internals in the i915 driver.

When the unsigned page_counter underflows, even just by a few pages, a
cgroup will not be able to run anything afterwards and trigger the OOM
killer in a loop.
Underflows shouldn't happen, but when they do in practice, we may just be
off by a small amount that doesn't interfere with the normal operation -
consequences don't need to be that dire.
Reset the page_counter to 0 upon underflow. We'll issue a warning that
the accounting will be off and then try to keep limping along.
[ We used to do this with the original res_counter, where it was a
more straight-forward correction inside the spinlock section. I
didn't carry it forward into the lockless page counters for
simplicity, but it turns out this is quite useful in practice. ]

obj_cgroup_{un}charge_pages()
There is only one user of __memcg_kmem_charge(), so manually inline
__memcg_kmem_charge() to obj_cgroup_charge_pages(). Similarly manually
inline __memcg_kmem_uncharge() into obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages() and call
obj_cgroup_uncharge_pages() in obj_cgroup_release().
This is just code cleanup without any functionality changes.

Since Roman's series "The new cgroup slab memory controller" applied.
All slab objects are charged via the new APIs of obj_cgroup. The new
APIs introduce a struct obj_cgroup to charge slab objects. It prevents
long-living objects from pinning the original memory cgroup in the
memory. But there are still some corner objects (e.g. allocations
larger than order-1 page on SLUB) which are not charged via the new
APIs. Those objects (include the pages which are allocated from buddy
allocator directly) are charged as kmem pages which still hold a
reference to the memory cgroup.
We want to reuse the obj_cgroup APIs to charge the kmem pages. If we do
that, we should store an object cgroup pointer to page->memcg_data for
the kmem pages.
Finally, page->memcg_data will have 3 different meanings.
1) For the slab pages, page->memcg_data points to an object cgroups
vector.
2) For the kmem pages (exclude the slab pages), page->memcg_data
points to an object cgroup.
3) For the user pages (e.g. the LRU pages), page->memcg_data points
to a memory cgroup.
We do not change the behavior of page_memcg() and page_memcg_rcu(). They
are also suitable for LRU pages and kmem pages. Why?
Because memory allocations pinning memcgs for a long time - it exists at a
larger scale and is causing recurring problems in the real world: page
cache doesn't get reclaimed for a long time, or is used by the second,
third, fourth, ... instance of the same job that was restarted into a new
cgroup every time. Unreclaimable dying cgroups pile up, waste memory, and
make page reclaim very inefficient.
We can convert LRU pages and most other raw memcg pins to the objcg
direction to fix this problem, and then the page->memcg will always point
to an object cgroup pointer. At that time, LRU pages and kmem pages will
be treated the same. The implementation of page_memcg() will remove the
kmem page check.
This patch aims to charge the kmem pages by using the new APIs of
obj_cgroup. Finally, the page->memcg_data of the kmem page points to an
object cgroup. We can use the __page_objcg() to get the object cgroup
associated with a kmem page. Or we can use page_memcg() to get the memory
cgroup associated with a kmem page, but caller must ensure that the
returned memcg won't be released (e.g. acquire the rcu_read_lock or
css_set_lock).

page_memcg() is not suitable for use by page_expected_state() and
page_bad_reason(). Because it can BUG_ON() for the slab pages when
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled. As neither lru, nor kmem, nor slab page
should have anything left in there by the time the page is freed, what
we care about is whether the value of page->memcg_data is 0. So just
directly access page->memcg_data here.

We know that the unit of slab object charging is bytes, the unit of kmem
page charging is PAGE_SIZE. If we want to reuse obj_cgroup APIs to
charge the kmem pages, we should pass PAGE_SIZE (as third parameter) to
obj_cgroup_charge(). Because the size is already PAGE_SIZE, we can skip
touch the objcg stock. And obj_cgroup_{un}charge_pages() are introduced
to charge in units of page level.
In the latter patch, we also can reuse those two helpers to charge or
uncharge a number of kernel pages to a object cgroup. This is just a
code movement without any functional changes.

Patch series "Use obj_cgroup APIs to charge kmem pages", v5.
Since Roman's series "The new cgroup slab memory controller" applied.
All slab objects are charged with the new APIs of obj_cgroup. The new
APIs introduce a struct obj_cgroup to charge slab objects. It prevents
long-living objects from pinning the original memory cgroup in the
memory. But there are still some corner objects (e.g. allocations
larger than order-1 page on SLUB) which are not charged with the new
APIs. Those objects (include the pages which are allocated from buddy
allocator directly) are charged as kmem pages which still hold a
reference to the memory cgroup.
E.g. We know that the kernel stack is charged as kmem pages because the
size of the kernel stack can be greater than 2 pages (e.g. 16KB on
x86_64 or arm64). If we create a thread (suppose the thread stack is
charged to memory cgroup A) and then move it from memory cgroup A to
memory cgroup B. Because the kernel stack of the thread hold a
reference to the memory cgroup A. The thread can pin the memory cgroup
A in the memory even if we remove the cgroup A. If we want to see this
scenario by using the following script. We can see that the system has
added 500 dying cgroups (This is not a real world issue, just a script
to show that the large kmallocs are charged as kmem pages which can pin
the memory cgroup in the memory).
#!/bin/bash
cat /proc/cgroups | grep memory
cd /sys/fs/cgroup/memory
echo 1 > memory.move_charge_at_immigrate
for i in range{1..500}
do
mkdir kmem_test
echo $$ > kmem_test/cgroup.procs
sleep 3600 &
echo $$ > cgroup.procs
echo `cat kmem_test/cgroup.procs` > cgroup.procs
rmdir kmem_test
done
cat /proc/cgroups | grep memory
This patchset aims to make those kmem pages to drop the reference to
memory cgroup by using the APIs of obj_cgroup. Finally, we can see that
the number of the dying cgroups will not increase if we run the above test
script.
This patch (of 7):
The rcu_read_lock/unlock only can guarantee that the memcg will not be
freed, but it cannot guarantee the success of css_get (which is in the
refill_stock when cached memcg changed) to memcg.
rcu_read_lock()
memcg = obj_cgroup_memcg(old)
__memcg_kmem_uncharge(memcg)
refill_stock(memcg)
if (stock->cached != memcg)
// css_get can change the ref counter from 0 back to 1.
css_get(&memcg->css)
rcu_read_unlock()
This fix is very like the commit:
eefbfa7fd678 ("mm: memcg/slab: fix use after free in obj_cgroup_charge")
Fix this by holding a reference to the memcg which is passed to the
__memcg_kmem_uncharge() before calling __memcg_kmem_uncharge().

Currently the kernel adds the page, allocated for swapin, to the
swapcache before charging the page. This is fine but now we want a
per-memcg swapcache stat which is essential for folks who wants to
transparently migrate from cgroup v1's memsw to cgroup v2's memory and
swap counters. In addition charging a page before exposing it to other
parts of the kernel is a step in the right direction.
To correctly maintain the per-memcg swapcache stat, this patch has
adopted to charge the page before adding it to swapcache. One challenge
in this option is the failure case of add_to_swap_cache() on which we
need to undo the mem_cgroup_charge(). Specifically undoing
mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap() is not simple.
To resolve the issue, this patch decouples the charging for swapin pages
from mem_cgroup_charge(). Two new functions are introduced,
mem_cgroup_swapin_charge_page() for just charging the swapin page and
mem_cgroup_swapin_uncharge_swap() for uncharging the swap slot once the
page has been successfully added to the swapcache.

There are two functions to flush the per-cpu data of an lruvec into the
rest of the cgroup tree: when the cgroup is being freed, and when a CPU
disappears during hotplug. The difference is whether all CPUs or just
one is being collected, but the rest of the flushing code is the same.
Merge them into one function and share the common code.

Replace the memory controller's custom hierarchical stats code with the
generic rstat infrastructure provided by the cgroup core.
The current implementation does batched upward propagation from the
write side (i.e. as stats change). The per-cpu batches introduce an
error, which is multiplied by the number of subgroups in a tree. In
systems with many CPUs and sizable cgroup trees, the error can be large
enough to confuse users (e.g. 32 batch pages * 32 CPUs * 32 subgroups
results in an error of up to 128M per stat item). This can entirely
swallow allocation bursts inside a workload that the user is expecting
to see reflected in the statistics.
In the past, we've done read-side aggregation, where a memory.stat read
would have to walk the entire subtree and add up per-cpu counts. This
became problematic with lazily-freed cgroups: we could have large
subtrees where most cgroups were entirely idle. Hence the switch to
change-driven upward propagation. Unfortunately, it needed to trade
accuracy for speed due to the write side being so hot.
Rstat combines the best of both worlds: from the write side, it cheaply
maintains a queue of cgroups that have pending changes, so that the read
side can do selective tree aggregation. This way the reported stats
will always be precise and recent as can be, while the aggregation can
skip over potentially large numbers of idle cgroups.
The way rstat works is that it implements a tree for tracking cgroups
with pending local changes, as well as a flush function that walks the
tree upwards. The controller then drives this by 1) telling rstat when
a local cgroup stat changes (e.g. mod_memcg_state) and 2) when a flush
is required to get uptodate hierarchy stats for a given subtree (e.g.
when memory.stat is read). The controller also provides a flush
callback that is called during the rstat flush walk for each cgroup and
aggregates its local per-cpu counters and propagates them upwards.
This adds a second vmstats to struct mem_cgroup (MEMCG_NR_STAT +
NR_VM_EVENT_ITEMS) to track pending subtree deltas during upward
aggregation. It removes 3 words from the per-cpu data. It eliminates
memcg_exact_page_state(), since memcg_page_state() is now exact.

Patch series "mm: memcontrol: switch to rstat", v3.
This series converts memcg stats tracking to the streamlined rstat
infrastructure provided by the cgroup core code. rstat is already used by
the CPU controller and the IO controller. This change is motivated by
recent accuracy problems in memcg's custom stats code, as well as the
benefits of sharing common infra with other controllers.
The current memcg implementation does batched tree aggregation on the
write side: local stat changes are cached in per-cpu counters, which are
then propagated upward in batches when a threshold (32 pages) is exceeded.
This is cheap, but the error introduced by the lazy upward propagation
adds up: 32 pages times CPUs times cgroups in the subtree. We've had
complaints from service owners that the stats do not reliably track and
react to allocation behavior as expected, sometimes swallowing the results
of entire test applications.
The original memcg stat implementation used to do tree aggregation
exclusively on the read side: local stats would only ever be tracked in
per-cpu counters, and a memory.stat read would iterate the entire subtree
and sum those counters up. This didn't keep up with the times:
- Cgroup trees are much bigger now. We switched to lazily-freed
cgroups, where deleted groups would hang around until their remaining
page cache has been reclaimed. This can result in large subtrees that
are expensive to walk, while most of the groups are idle and their
statistics don't change much anymore.
- Automated monitoring increased. With the proliferation of userspace
oom killing, proactive reclaim, and higher-resolution logging of
workload trends in general, top-level stat files are polled at least
once a second in many deployments.
- The lifetime of cgroups got shorter. Where most cgroup setups in the
past would have a few large policy-oriented cgroups for everything
running on the system, newer cgroup deployments tend to create one
group per application - which gets deleted again as the processes
exit. An aggregation scheme that doesn't retain child data inside the
parents loses event history of the subtree.
Rstat addresses all three of those concerns through intelligent,
persistent read-side aggregation. As statistics change at the local
level, rstat tracks - on a per-cpu basis - only those parts of a subtree
that have changes pending and require aggregation. The actual
aggregation occurs on the colder read side - which can now skip over
(potentially large) numbers of recently idle cgroups.

The test_kmem cgroup selftest is currently failing due to excessive
cumulative vmstat drift from 100 subgroups:
ok 1 test_kmem_basic
memory.current = 8810496
slab + anon + file + kernel_stack = 17074568
slab = 6101384
anon = 946176
file = 0
kernel_stack = 10027008
not ok 2 test_kmem_memcg_deletion
ok 3 test_kmem_proc_kpagecgroup
ok 4 test_kmem_kernel_stacks
ok 5 test_kmem_dead_cgroups
ok 6 test_percpu_basic
As you can see, memory.stat items far exceed memory.current. The kernel
stack alone is bigger than all of charged memory. That's because the
memory of the test has been uncharged from memory.current, but the
negative vmstat deltas are still sitting in the percpu caches.
The test at this time isn't even counting percpu, pagetables etc. yet,
which would further contribute to the error. The last patch in the series
updates the test to include them - as well as reduces the vmstat
tolerances in general to only expect page_counter batching.
With all patches applied, the (now more stringent) test succeeds:
ok 1 test_kmem_basic
ok 2 test_kmem_memcg_deletion
ok 3 test_kmem_proc_kpagecgroup
ok 4 test_kmem_kernel_stacks
ok 5 test_kmem_dead_cgroups

A kernel build test confirms that overhead is comparable. Two kernels are
built simultaneously in a nested tree with several idle siblings:
root - kernelbuild - one - two - three - four - build-a (defconfig, make -j16)
`- build-b (defconfig, make -j16)
`- idle-1
`- ...
`- idle-9
During the builds, kernelbuild/memory.stat is read once a second.
A perf diff shows that the changes in cycle distribution is
minimal. Top 10 kernel symbols:

This patch (of 8):
The memcg hotunplug callback erroneously flushes counts on the local CPU,
not the counts of the CPU going away; those counts will be lost.
Flush the CPU that is actually going away.
Also simplify the code a bit by using mod_memcg_state() and
count_memcg_events() instead of open-coding the upward flush - this is
comparable to how vmstat.c handles hotunplug flushing.

In the era of async memcg oom-killer, the commit a0d8b00a3381 ("mm: memcg:
do not declare OOM from __GFP_NOFAIL allocations") added the code to skip
memcg oom-killer for __GFP_NOFAIL allocations. The reason was that the
__GFP_NOFAIL callers will not enter aync oom synchronization path and will
keep the task marked as in memcg oom. At that time the tasks marked in
memcg oom can bypass the memcg limits and the oom synchronization would
have happened later in the later userspace triggered page fault. Thus
letting the task marked as under memcg oom bypass the memcg limit for
arbitrary time.
With the synchronous memcg oom-killer (commit 29ef680ae7c21 ("memcg, oom:
move out_of_memory back to the charge path")) and not letting the task
marked under memcg oom to bypass the memcg limits (commit 1f14c1ac19aa4
("mm: memcg: do not allow task about to OOM kill to bypass the limit")),
we can again allow __GFP_NOFAIL allocations to trigger memcg oom-kill.
This will make memcg oom behavior closer to page allocator oom behavior.

Add an unpin_user_page_range_dirty_lock() API which takes a starting page
and how many consecutive pages we want to unpin and optionally dirty.
To that end, define another iterator for_each_compound_range() that
operates in page ranges as opposed to page array.
For users (like RDMA mr_dereg) where each sg represents a contiguous set
of pages, we're able to more efficiently unpin pages without having to
supply an array of pages much of what happens today with
unpin_user_pages().

Rather than decrementing the head page refcount one by one, we walk the
page array and checking which belong to the same compound_head. Later on
we decrement the calculated amount of references in a single write to the
head page. To that end switch to for_each_compound_head() does most of
the work.
set_page_dirty() needs no adjustment as it's a nop for non-dirty head
pages and it doesn't operate on tail pages.
This considerably improves unpinning of pages with THP and hugetlbfs:
- THP
gup_test -t -m 16384 -r 10 [-L|-a] -S -n 512 -w
PIN_LONGTERM_BENCHMARK (put values): ~87.6k us -> ~23.2k us

Patch series "mm/gup: page unpining improvements", v4.
This series improves page unpinning, with an eye on improving MR
deregistration for big swaths of memory (which is bound by the page
unpining), particularly:
1) Decrement the head page by @ntails and thus reducing a lot the
number of atomic operations per compound page. This is done by
comparing individual tail pages heads, and counting number of
consecutive tails on which they match heads and based on that update
head page refcount. Should have a visible improvement in all page
(un)pinners which use compound pages
2) Introducing a new API for unpinning page ranges (to avoid the trick
in the previous item and be based on math), and use that in RDMA
ib_mem_release (used for mr deregistration).
Performance improvements: unpin_user_pages() for hugetlbfs and THP
improves ~3x (through gup_test) and RDMA MR dereg improves ~4.5x with the
new API. See patches 2 and 4 for those.
This patch (of 4):
Add a helper that iterates over head pages in a list of pages. It
essentially counts the tails until the next page to process has a
different head that the current. This is going to be used by
unpin_user_pages() family of functions, to batch the head page refcount
updates once for all passed consecutive tail pages.

Page writeback doesn't hold a page reference, which allows truncate to
free a page the second PageWriteback is cleared. This used to require
special attention in test_clear_page_writeback(), where we had to be
careful not to rely on the unstable page->memcg binding and look up all
the necessary information before clearing the writeback flag.
Since commit 073861ed77b6 ("mm: fix VM_BUG_ON(PageTail) and
BUG_ON(PageWriteback)") test_clear_page_writeback() is called with an
explicit reference on the page, and this dance is no longer needed.
Use unlock_page_memcg() and dec_lruvec_page_state() directly.
This removes the last user of the lock_page_memcg() return value, change
it to void. Touch up the comments in there as well. This also removes
the last extern user of __unlock_page_memcg(), make it static. Further,
it removes the last user of dec_lruvec_state(), delete it, along with a
few other unused helpers.

If the I/O completed successfully, the page will remain Uptodate, even
if it is subsequently truncated. If the I/O completed with an error,
this check would cause us to retry the I/O if the page were truncated
before we woke up. There is no need to retry the I/O; the I/O to fill
the page failed, so we can legitimately just return -EIO.
This code was originally added by commit 56f0d5fe6851 ("[PATCH]
readpage-vs-invalidate fix") in 2005 (this commit ID is from the
linux-fullhistory tree; it is also commit ba1f08f14b52 in tglx-history).
At the time, truncate_complete_page() called ClearPageUptodate(), and so
this was fixing a real bug. In 2008, commit 84209e02de48 ("mm: dont clear
PG_uptodate on truncate/invalidate") removed the call to
ClearPageUptodate, and this check has been unnecessary ever since.
It doesn't do any real harm, but there's no need to keep it.

Patch series "Improve IOCB_NOWAIT O_DIRECT reads", v3.
An internal workload complained because it was using too much CPU, and
when I took a look, we had a lot of io_uring workers going to town.
For an async buffered read like workload, I am normally expecting _zero_
offloads to a worker thread, but this one had tons of them. I'd drop
caches and things would look good again, but then a minute later we'd
regress back to using workers. Turns out that every minute something
was reading parts of the device, which would add page cache for that
inode. I put patches like these in for our kernel, and the problem was
solved.
Don't -EAGAIN IOCB_NOWAIT dio reads just because we have page cache
entries for the given range. This causes unnecessary work from the
callers side, when the IO could have been issued totally fine without
blocking on writeback when there is none.
This patch (of 3):
For O_DIRECT reads/writes, we check if we need to issue a call to
filemap_write_and_wait_range() to issue and/or wait for writeback for any
page in the given range. The existing mechanism just checks for a page in
the range, which is suboptimal for IOCB_NOWAIT as we'll fallback to the
slow path (and needing retry) if there's just a clean page cache page in
the range.
Provide filemap_range_needs_writeback() which tries a little harder to
check if we actually need to issue and/or wait for writeback in the range.

Before the change page_owner recursion was detected via fetching
backtrace and inspecting it for current instruction pointer.
It has a few problems:
- it is slightly slow as it requires extra backtrace and a linear stack
scan of the result
- it is too late to check if backtrace fetching required memory
allocation itself (ia64's unwinder requires it).
To simplify recursion tracking let's use page_owner recursion flag in
'struct task_struct'.
The change make page_owner=on work on ia64 by avoiding infinite
recursion in:
kmalloc()
-> __set_page_owner()
-> save_stack()
-> unwind() [ia64-specific]
-> build_script()
-> kmalloc()
-> __set_page_owner() [we short-circuit here]
-> save_stack()
-> unwind() [recursion]

Collect the time when each allocation is freed, to help with memory
analysis with kdump/ramdump. Add the timestamp also in the page_owner
debugfs file and print it in dump_page().
Having another timestamp when we free the page helps for debugging page
migration issues. For example both alloc and free timestamps being the
same can gave hints that there is an issue with migrating memory, as
opposed to a page just being dropped during migration.

debug flags
Commit ca0cab65ea2b ("mm, slub: introduce static key for slub_debug()")
introduced a static key to optimize the case where no debugging is
enabled for any cache. The static key is enabled when slub_debug boot
parameter is passed, or CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON enabled.
However, some caches might be created with one or more debugging flags
explicitly passed to kmem_cache_create(), and the commit missed this.
Thus the debugging functionality would not be actually performed for
these caches unless the static key gets enabled by boot param or config.
This patch fixes it by checking for debugging flags passed to
kmem_cache_create() and enabling the static key accordingly.
Note such explicit debugging flags should not be used outside of
debugging and testing as they will now enable the static key globally.
btrfs_init_cachep() creates a cache with SLAB_RED_ZONE but that's a
mistake that's being corrected [1]. rcu_torture_stats() creates a cache
with SLAB_STORE_USER, but that is a testing module so it's OK and will
start working as intended after this patch.
Also note that in case of backports to kernels before v5.12 that don't
have 59450bbc12be ("mm, slab, slub: stop taking cpu hotplug lock"),
static_branch_enable_cpuslocked() should be used.

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Stop synchronizing kernel log buffer readers by logbuf_lock. As a
result, the access to the buffer is fully lockless now.
Note that printk() itself still uses locks because it tries to flush
the messages to the console immediately. Also the per-CPU temporary
buffers are still there because they prevent infinite recursion and
serialize backtraces from NMI. All this is going to change in the
future.
- kmsg_dump API rework and cleanup as a side effect of the logbuf_lock
removal.
- Make bstr_printf() aware that %pf and %pF formats could deference the
given pointer.
- Show also page flags by %pGp format.
- Clarify the documentation for plain pointer printing.
- Do not show no_hash_pointers warning multiple times.
- Update Senozhatsky email address.
- Some clean up.

Pull network filesystem helper library updates from David Howells:
"Here's a set of patches for 5.13 to begin the process of overhauling
the local caching API for network filesystems. This set consists of
two parts:
(1) Add a helper library to handle the new VM readahead interface.
This is intended to be used unconditionally by the filesystem
(whether or not caching is enabled) and provides a common
framework for doing caching, transparent huge pages and, in the
future, possibly fscrypt and read bandwidth maximisation. It also
allows the netfs and the cache to align, expand and slice up a
read request from the VM in various ways; the netfs need only
provide a function to read a stretch of data to the pagecache and
the helper takes care of the rest.
(2) Add an alternative fscache/cachfiles I/O API that uses the kiocb
facility to do async DIO to transfer data to/from the netfs's
pages, rather than using readpage with wait queue snooping on one
side and vfs_write() on the other. It also uses less memory, since
it doesn't do buffered I/O on the backing file.
Note that this uses SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA to locate the data
available to be read from the cache. Whilst this is an improvement
from the bmap interface, it still has a problem with regard to a
modern extent-based filesystem inserting or removing bridging
blocks of zeros. Fixing that requires a much greater overhaul.
This is a step towards overhauling the fscache API. The change is
opt-in on the part of the network filesystem. A netfs should not try
to mix the old and the new API because of conflicting ways of handling
pages and the PG_fscache page flag and because it would be mixing DIO
with buffered I/O. Further, the helper library can't be used with the
old API.
This does not change any of the fscache cookie handling APIs or the
way invalidation is done at this time.
In the near term, I intend to deprecate and remove the old I/O API
(fscache_allocate_page{,s}(), fscache_read_or_alloc_page{,s}(),
fscache_write_page() and fscache_uncache_page()) and eventually
replace most of fscache/cachefiles with something simpler and easier
to follow.
This patchset contains the following parts:
- Some helper patches, including provision of an ITER_XARRAY iov
iterator and a function to do readahead expansion.
- Patches to add the netfs helper library.
- A patch to add the fscache/cachefiles kiocb API.
- A pair of patches to fix some review issues in the ITER_XARRAY and
read helpers as spotted by Al and Willy.
Jeff Layton has patches to add support in Ceph for this that he
intends for this merge window. I have a set of patches to support AFS
that I will post a separate pull request for.
With this, AFS without a cache passes all expected xfstests; with a
cache, there's an extra failure, but that's also there before these
patches. Fixing that probably requires a greater overhaul. Ceph also
passes the expected tests.
I also have patches in a separate branch to tidy up the handling of
PG_fscache/PG_private_2 and their contribution to page refcounting in
the core kernel here, but I haven't included them in this set and will
route them separately"

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
- MTE asynchronous support for KASan. Previously only synchronous
(slower) mode was supported. Asynchronous is faster but does not
allow precise identification of the illegal access.
- Run kernel mode SIMD with softirqs disabled. This allows using NEON
in softirq context for crypto performance improvements. The
conditional yield support is modified to take softirqs into account
and reduce the latency.
- Preparatory patches for Apple M1: handle CPUs that only have the VHE
mode available (host kernel running at EL2), add FIQ support.
- arm64 perf updates: support for HiSilicon PA and SLLC PMU drivers,
new functions for the HiSilicon HHA and L3C PMU, cleanups.
- Re-introduce support for execute-only user permissions but only when
the EPAN (Enhanced Privileged Access Never) architecture feature is
available.
- Disable fine-grained traps at boot and improve the documented boot
requirements.
- Support CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC on arm64 (only with KASAN_GENERIC).
- Add hierarchical eXecute Never permissions for all page tables.
- Add arm64 prctl(PR_PAC_{SET,GET}_ENABLED_KEYS) allowing user programs
to control which PAC keys are enabled in a particular task.
- arm64 kselftests for BTI and some improvements to the MTE tests.
- Minor improvements to the compat vdso and sigpage.
- Miscellaneous cleanups.

Pull entry code update from Thomas Gleixner:
"Provide support for randomized stack offsets per syscall to make
stack-based attacks harder which rely on the deterministic stack
layout.
The feature is based on the original idea of PaX's RANDSTACK feature,
but uses a significantly different implementation.
The offset does not affect the pt_regs location on the task stack as
this was agreed on to be of dubious value. The offset is applied
before the actual syscall is invoked.
The offset is stored per cpu and the randomization happens at the end
of the syscall which is less predictable than on syscall entry.
The mechanism to apply the offset is via alloca(), i.e. abusing the
dispised VLAs. This comes with the drawback that
stack-clash-protection has to be disabled for the affected compilation
units and there is also a negative interaction with stack-protector.
Those downsides are traded with the advantage that this approach does
not require any intrusive changes to the low level assembly entry
code, does not affect the unwinder and the correct stack alignment is
handled automatically by the compiler.
The feature is guarded with a static branch which avoids the overhead
when disabled.
Currently this is supported for X86 and ARM64"

No problem on 64-bit, or without huge pages, but xfstests generic/285
and other SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA tests have regressed on huge tmpfs, and on
32-bit architectures, with the new mapping_seek_hole_data(). Several
different bugs turned out to need fixing.
u64 cast to stop losing bits when converting unsigned long to loff_t
(and let's use shifts throughout, rather than mixed with * and /).
Use round_up() when advancing pos, to stop assuming that pos was already
THP-aligned when advancing it by THP-size. (This use of round_up()
assumes that any THP has THP-aligned index: true at present and true
going forward, but could be recoded to avoid the assumption.)
Use xas_set() when iterating away from a THP, so that xa_index stays in
synch with start, instead of drifting away to return bogus offset.
Check start against end to avoid wrapping 32-bit xa_index to 0 (and to
handle these additional cases, seek_data or not, it's easier to break
the loop than goto: so rearrange exit from the function).
