Asynchronously try to release dying cgwbs by switching attached inodes to
the nearest living ancestor wb. It helps to get rid of per-cgroup
writeback structures themselves and of pinned memory and block cgroups,
which are significantly larger structures (mostly due to large per-cpu
statistics data). This prevents memory waste and helps to avoid different
scalability problems caused by large piles of dying cgroups.
Reuse the existing mechanism of inode switching used for foreign inode
detection. To speed things up batch up to 115 inode switching in a single
operation (the maximum number is selected so that the resulting struct
inode_switch_wbs_context can fit into 1024 bytes). Because every
switching consists of two steps divided by an RCU grace period, it would
be too slow without batching. Please note that the whole batch counts as
a single operation (when increasing/decreasing isw_nr_in_flight). This
allows to keep umounting working (flush the switching queue), however
prevents cleanups from consuming the whole switching quota and effectively
blocking the frn switching.
A cgwb cleanup operation can fail due to different reasons (e.g. not
enough memory, the cgwb has an in-flight/pending io, an attached inode in
a wrong state, etc). In this case the next scheduled cleanup will make a
new attempt. An attempt is made each time a new cgwb is offlined (in
other words a memcg and/or a blkcg is deleted by a user). In the future
an additional attempt scheduled by a timer can be implemented.

Currently only a single inode can be switched to another writeback
structure at once. That means to switch an inode a separate
inode_switch_wbs_context structure must be allocated, and a separate rcu
callback and work must be scheduled.
It's fine for the existing ad-hoc switching, which is not happening that
often, but sub-optimal for massive switching required in order to release
a writeback structure. To prepare for it, let's add a support for
switching multiple inodes at once.
Instead of containing a single inode pointer, inode_switch_wbs_context
will contain a NULL-terminated array of inode pointers.
inode_do_switch_wbs() will be called for each inode.
To optimize the locking bdi->wb_switch_rwsem, old_wb's and new_wb's
list_locks will be acquired and released only once altogether for all
inodes. wb_wakeup() will be also be called only once. Instead of calling
wb_put(old_wb) after each successful switch, wb_put_many() is introduced
and used.

Currently there is no way to iterate over inodes attached to a specific
cgwb structure. It limits the ability to efficiently reclaim the
writeback structure itself and associated memory and block cgroup
structures without scanning all inodes belonging to a sb, which can be
prohibitively expensive.
While dirty/in-active-writeback an inode belongs to one of the
bdi_writeback's io lists: b_dirty, b_io, b_more_io and b_dirty_time. Once
cleaned up, it's removed from all io lists. So the inode->i_io_list can
be reused to maintain the list of inodes, attached to a bdi_writeback
structure.
This patch introduces a new wb->b_attached list, which contains all inodes
which were dirty at least once and are attached to the given cgwb. Inodes
attached to the root bdi_writeback structures are never placed on such
list. The following patch will use this list to try to release cgwbs
structures more efficiently.

isw_nr_in_flight is used to determine whether the inode switch queue
should be flushed from the umount path. Currently it's increased after
grabbing an inode and even scheduling the switch work. It means the
umount path can walk past cleanup_offline_cgwb() with active inode
references, which can result in a "Busy inodes after unmount." message and
use-after-free issues (with inode->i_sb which gets freed).
Fix it by incrementing isw_nr_in_flight before doing anything with the
inode and decrementing in the case when switching wasn't scheduled.
The problem hasn't yet been seen in the real life and was discovered by
Jan Kara by looking into the code.

Patch series "cgroup, blkcg: prevent dirty inodes to pin dying memory cgroups", v9.
When an inode is getting dirty for the first time it's associated with a
wb structure (see __inode_attach_wb()). It can later be switched to
another wb (if e.g. some other cgroup is writing a lot of data to the
same inode), but otherwise stays attached to the original wb until being
reclaimed.
The problem is that the wb structure holds a reference to the original
memory and blkcg cgroups. So if an inode has been dirty once and later is
actively used in read-only mode, it has a good chance to pin down the
original memory and blkcg cgroups forever. This is often the case with
services bringing data for other services, e.g. updating some rpm
packages.
In the real life it becomes a problem due to a large size of the memcg
structure, which can easily be 1000x larger than an inode. Also a really
large number of dying cgroups can raise different scalability issues, e.g.
making the memory reclaim costly and less effective.
To solve the problem inodes should be eventually detached from the
corresponding writeback structure. It's inefficient to do it after every
writeback completion. Instead it can be done whenever the original memory
cgroup is offlined and writeback structure is getting killed. Scanning
over a (potentially long) list of inodes and detach them from the
writeback structure can take quite some time. To avoid scanning all
inodes, attached inodes are kept on a new list (b_attached). To make it
less noticeable to a user, the scanning and switching is performed from a
work context.
Big thanks to Jan Kara, Dennis Zhou, Hillf Danton and Tejun Heo for their
ideas and contribution to this patchset.
This patch (of 8):
If an inode's state has I_WILL_FREE flag set, the inode will be freed
soon, so there is no point in trying to switch the inode to a different
cgwb.
I_WILL_FREE was ignored since the introduction of the inode switching, so
it looks like it doesn't lead to any noticeable issues for a user. This
is why the patch is not intended for a stable backport.

Fix performance when BDI's share of ratio is 0.
The issue is similar to commit 74d3694433 ("writeback: Fix
performance regression in wb_over_bg_thresh()").
Balance_dirty_pages and the writeback worker will also disagree on
whether writeback when a BDI uses BDI_CAP_STRICTLIMIT and BDI's share
of the thresh ratio is zero.
For example, A thread on cpu0 writes 32 pages and then
balance_dirty_pages, it will wake up background writeback and pauses
because wb_dirty > wb->wb_thresh = 0 (share of thresh ratio is zero).
A thread may runs on cpu0 again because scheduler prefers pre_cpu.
Then writeback worker may runs on other cpus(1,2..) which causes the
value of wb_stat(wb, WB_RECLAIMABLE) in wb_over_bg_thresh is 0 and does
not writeback and returns.
Thus, balance_dirty_pages keeps looping, sleeping and then waking up the
worker who will do nothing. It remains stuck in this state until the
writeback worker hit the right dirty cpu or the dirty pages expire.
The fix that we should get the wb_stat_sum radically when thresh is low.

PAGE_SIZE: 64KB

The page reporting order (threshold) is sticky to @pageblock_order by
default. The page reporting can never be triggered because the freeing
page can't come up with a free area like that huge. The situation becomes
worse when the system memory becomes heavily fragmented.
For example, the following configurations are used on ARM64 when 64KB base
page size is enabled. In this specific case, the page reporting won't be
triggered until the freeing page comes up with a 512MB free area. That's
hard to be met, especially when the system memory becomes heavily
fragmented.
PAGE_SIZE: 64KB
HPAGE_SIZE: 512MB
pageblock_order: 13 (512MB)
MAX_ORDER: 14
This allows the drivers to specify the page reporting order when the page
reporting device is registered. It falls back to @pageblock_order if it's
not specified by the driver. The existing users (hv_balloon and
virtio_balloon) don't specify it and @pageblock_order is still taken as
their page reporting order. So this shouldn't introduce any functional
changes.

mmap_lock will explicitly disable/enable preemption upon manipulating its
local CPU variables. This is to be expected, but in this case, it doesn't
play well with PREEMPT_RT. The preemption disabled code section also
takes a spin-lock. Spin-locks in RT systems will try to schedule, which
is exactly what we're trying to avoid.
To mitigate this, convert the explicit preemption handling to local_locks.
Which are RT aware, and will disable migration instead of preemption when

grab_mapping_entry() has a bug in handling of ENOMEM condition. Suppose
we have a PMD entry at index i which we are downgrading to a PTE entry.
grab_mapping_entry() will set pmd_downgrade to true, lock the entry, clear
the entry in xarray, and decrement mapping->nrpages. The it will call:
entry = dax_make_entry(pfn_to_pfn_t(0), flags);
dax_lock_entry(xas, entry);
which inserts new PTE entry into xarray. However this may fail allocating
the new node. We handle this by:
if (xas_nomem(xas, mapping_gfp_mask(mapping) & ~__GFP_HIGHMEM))
goto retry;
however pmd_downgrade stays set to true even though 'entry' returned from
get_unlocked_entry() will be NULL now. And we will go again through the
downgrade branch. This is mostly harmless except that mapping->nrpages is
decremented again and we temporarily have an invalid entry stored in
xarray. Fix the problem by setting pmd_downgrade to false each time we
lookup the entry we work with so that it matches the entry we found.

2. Use READ/WRITE_ONCE() for accessing "jiffies_scan_wait".
3. Fix the possible wrong memory scanning period. If you set a large
memory scanning period like blow, then the "secs" variable will be
non-zero, however the value of "jiffies_scan_wait" will be zero.
echo "scan=0x10000000" > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak
It is because the type of the msecs_to_jiffies()'s parameter is "unsigned
int", and the "secs * 1000" is larger than its max value. This in turn
leads a unexpected jiffies_scan_wait, maybe zero. We corret it by
replacing kstrtoul() with kstrtouint(), and check the msecs to prevent it
larger than UINT_MAX.

Obscuring the pointers that slub shows when debugging makes for some
confusing slub debug messages:
Padding overwritten. 0x0000000079f0674a-0x000000000d4dce17
Those addresses are hashed for kernel security reasons. If we're trying
to be secure with slub_debug on the commandline we have some big problems
given that we dump whole chunks of kernel memory to the kernel logs.
Let's force on the no_hash_pointers commandline flag when slub_debug is on
the commandline. This makes slub debug messages more meaningful and if by
chance a kernel address is in some slub debug object dump we will have a
better chance of figuring out what went wrong.
Note that we don't use %px in the slub code because we want to reduce the
number of places that %px is used in the kernel. This also nicely prints
a big fat warning at kernel boot if slub_debug is on the commandline so
that we know that this kernel shouldn't be used on production systems.

Petch series "slub: Print non-hashed pointers in slub debugging", v3.
I was doing some debugging recently and noticed that my pointers were
being hashed while slub_debug was on the kernel commandline. Let's force
on the no hash pointer option when slub_debug is on the kernel commandline
so that the prints are more meaningful.
The first two patches are something else I noticed while looking at the
code. The message argument is never used so the debugging messages are
not as clear as they could be and the slub_debug=- behavior seems to be
busted. Then there's a printf fixup from Joe and the final patch is the
one that force disables pointer hashing.
This patch (of 4):
Passing slub_debug=- on the kernel commandline is supposed to disable slub
debugging. This is especially useful with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON where the
default is to have slub debugging enabled in the build. Due to some code
reorganization this behavior was dropped, but the code to make it work
mostly stuck around. Restore the previous behavior by disabling the
static key when we parse the commandline and see that we're trying to
disable slub debugging.

SLUB has resiliency_test() function which is hidden behind #ifdef
SLUB_RESILIENCY_TEST that is not part of Kconfig, so nobody runs it.
KUnit should be a proper replacement for it.
Try changing byte in redzone after allocation and changing pointer to next
free node, first byte, 50th byte and redzone byte. Check if validation
finds errors.
There are several differences from the original resiliency test: Tests
create own caches with known state instead of corrupting shared kmalloc
caches.
The corruption of freepointer uses correct offset, the original resiliency
test got broken with freepointer changes.
Scratch changing random byte test, because it does not have meaning in
this form where we need deterministic results.
Add new option CONFIG_SLUB_KUNIT_TEST in Kconfig. Tests next_pointer,
first_word and clobber_50th_byte do not run with KASAN option on. Because
the test deliberately modifies non-allocated objects.
Use kunit_resource to count errors in cache and silence bug reports.
Count error whenever slab_bug() or slab_fix() is called or when the count
of pages is wrong.

The snprintf() function returns the number of bytes which would have been
printed if the buffer was large enough. In other words it can return ">=
remain" but this code assumes it returns "== remain".
The run time impact of this bug is not very severe. The next iteration
through the loop would trigger a WARN() when we pass a negative limit to
snprintf(). We would then return success instead of -E2BIG.
The kernel implementation of snprintf() will never return negatives so
there is no need to check and I have deleted that dead code.

Patch series "streamline_config.pl: Fix Perl spacing".
Talking with John Hawley about how vim and emacs deal with Perl files with
respect to tabs and spaces, I found that some of my Perl code in the
kernel had inconsistent spacing. The way emacs handles Perl by default is
to use 4 spaces per indent, but make all 8 spaces into a single tab. Vim
does not do this by default. But if you add the vim variable control:
# vim: softtabstop=4
to a perl file, it makes vim behave the same way as emacs.
The first patch is to change all 8 spaces into a single tab (mostly from
people editing the file with vim). The next patch adds the softtabstop
variable to make vim act like emacs by default.
This patch (of 2):
As Perl code tends to have 4 space indentation, but uses tabs for every 8
spaces, make that consistent in the streamline_config.pl code. Replace
all 8 spaces with a single tab.

gcc points out a mistake in the mca driver that goes back to before the
git history:
arch/ia64/kernel/mca_drv.c: In function 'init_record_index_pools':
arch/ia64/kernel/mca_drv.c:346:54: error: expression does not compute the number of elements in this array; element typ
e is 'int', not 'size_t' {aka 'long unsigned int'} [-Werror=sizeof-array-div]
346 | for (i = 1; i < sizeof sal_log_sect_min_sizes/sizeof(size_t); i++)
| ^
This is the same as sizeof(size_t), which is two shorter than the actual
array. Use the ARRAY_SIZE() macro to get the correct calculation instead.
