Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
"In this round, a couple of sysfs entries were introduced to tune the
f2fs at runtime.
In addition, f2fs starts to support inline_data and improves the
read/write performance in some workloads by refactoring bio-related
flows.
This patch-set includes the following major enhancement patches.
- support inline_data
- refactor bio operations such as merge operations and rw type
assignment
- enhance the direct IO path
- enhance bio operations
- truncate a node page when it becomes obsolete
- add sysfs entries: small_discards, max_victim_search, and
in-place-update
- add a sysfs entry to control max_victim_search
The other bug fixes are as follows.
- fix a bug in truncate_partial_nodes
- avoid warnings during sparse and build process
- fix error handling flows
- fix potential bit overflows
And, there are a bunch of cleanups"

Merge tag 'stable/for-linus-3.14-rc0-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xen/tip
Pull Xen updates from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
"Two major features that Xen community is excited about:
The first is event channel scalability by David Vrabel - we switch
over from an two-level per-cpu bitmap of events (IRQs) - to an FIFO
queue with priorities. This lets us be able to handle more events,
have lower latency, and better scalability. Good stuff.
The other is PVH by Mukesh Rathor. In short, PV is a mode where the
kernel lets the hypervisor program page-tables, segments, etc. With
EPT/NPT capabilities in current processors, the overhead of doing this
in an HVM (Hardware Virtual Machine) container is much lower than the
hypervisor doing it for us.
In short we let a PV guest run without doing page-table, segment,
syscall, etc updates through the hypervisor - instead it is all done
within the guest container. It is a "hybrid" PV - hence the 'PVH'
name - a PV guest within an HVM container.
The major benefits are less code to deal with - for example we only
use one function from the the pv_mmu_ops (which has 39 function
calls); faster performance for syscall (no context switches into the
hypervisor); less traps on various operations; etc.
It is still being baked - the ABI is not yet set in stone. But it is
pretty awesome and we are excited about it.
Lastly, there are some changes to ARM code - you should get a simple
conflict which has been resolved in #linux-next.
In short, this pull has awesome features.
Features:
- FIFO event channels. Key advantages: support for over 100,000
events (2^17), 16 different event priorities, improved fairness in
event latency through the use of FIFOs.
- Xen PVH support. "It’s a fully PV kernel mode, running with
paravirtualized disk and network, paravirtualized interrupts and
timers, no emulated devices of any kind (and thus no qemu), no BIOS
or legacy boot — but instead of requiring PV MMU, it uses the HVM
hardware extensions to virtualize the pagetables, as well as system
calls and other privileged operations." (from "The
Paravirtualization Spectrum, Part 2: From poles to a spectrum")
Bug-fixes:
- Fixes in balloon driver (refactor and make it work under ARM)
- Allow xenfb to be used in HVM guests.
- Allow xen_platform_pci=0 to work properly.
- Refactors in event channels"

dm log userspace: allow mark requests to piggyback on flush requests
In the cluster evironment, cluster write has poor performance because userspace_flush() has to contact a userspace program (cmirrord) for clear/mark/flush requests. But both mark and flush requests require cmirrord to communicate the message to all the cluster nodes for each flush call. This behaviour is really slow. To address this we now merge mark and flush requests together to reduce the kernel-userspace-kernel time. We allow a new directive, "integrated_flush" that can be used to instruct the kernel log code to combine flush and mark requests when directed by userspace. If not directed by userspace (due to an older version of the userspace code perhaps), the kernel will function as it did previously - preserving backwards compatibility. Additionally, flush requests are performed lazily when only clear requests exist.

mm: compaction: encapsulate defer reset logic
Currently there are several functions to manipulate the deferred compaction state variables. The remaining case where the variables are touched directly is when a successful allocation occurs in direct compaction, or is expected to be successful in the future by kswapd. Here, the lowest order that is expected to fail is updated, and in the case of successful allocation, the deferred status and counter is reset completely. Create a new function compaction_defer_reset() to encapsulate this functionality and make it easier to understand the code. No functional change.

mm: compaction: trace compaction begin and end
The broad goal of the series is to improve allocation success rates for
huge pages through memory compaction, while trying not to increase the
compaction overhead. The original objective was to reintroduce
capturing of high-order pages freed by the compaction, before they are
split by concurrent activity. However, several bugs and opportunities
for simple improvements were found in the current implementation, mostly
through extra tracepoints (which are however too ugly for now to be
considered for sending).
The patches mostly deal with two mechanisms that reduce compaction
overhead, which is caching the progress of migrate and free scanners,
and marking pageblocks where isolation failed to be skipped during
further scans.
Patch 1 (from mgorman) adds tracepoints that allow calculate time spent in
compaction and potentially debug scanner pfn values.
Patch 2 encapsulates the some functionality for handling deferred compactions
for better maintainability, without a functional change
type is not determined without being actually needed.
Patch 3 fixes a bug where cached scanner pfn's are sometimes reset only after
they have been read to initialize a compaction run.
Patch 4 fixes a bug where scanners meeting is sometimes not properly detected
and can lead to multiple compaction attempts quitting early without
doing any work.
Patch 5 improves the chances of sync compaction to process pageblocks that
async compaction has skipped due to being !MIGRATE_MOVABLE.
Patch 6 improves the chances of sync direct compaction to actually do anything
when called after async compaction fails during allocation slowpath.
The impact of patches were validated using mmtests's stress-highalloc
benchmark with mmtests's stress-highalloc benchmark on a x86_64 machine
with 4GB memory.
Due to instability of the results (mostly related to the bugs fixed by
patches 2 and 3), 10 iterations were performed, taking min,mean,max
values for success rates and mean values for time and vmstat-based
metrics.
First, the default GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE allocations were tested with the
patches stacked on top of v3.13-rc2. Patch 2 is OK to serve as baseline
due to no functional changes in 1 and 2. Comments below.

sched: add tracepoints related to NUMA task migration
This patch adds three tracepoints o trace_sched_move_numa when a task is moved to a node o trace_sched_swap_numa when a task is swapped with another task o trace_sched_stick_numa when a numa-related migration fails The tracepoints allow the NUMA scheduler activity to be monitored and the following high-level metrics can be calculated o NUMA migrated stuck nr trace_sched_stick_numa o NUMA migrated idle nr trace_sched_move_numa o NUMA migrated swapped nr trace_sched_swap_numa o NUMA local swapped trace_sched_swap_numa src_nid == dst_nid (should never happen) o NUMA remote swapped trace_sched_swap_numa src_nid != dst_nid (should == NUMA migrated swapped) o NUMA group swapped trace_sched_swap_numa src_ngid == dst_ngid Maybe a small number of these are acceptable but a high number would be a major surprise. It would be even worse if bounces are frequent. o NUMA avg task migs. Average number of migrations for tasks o NUMA stddev task mig Self-explanatory o NUMA max task migs. Maximum number of migrations for a single task In general the intent of the tracepoints is to help diagnose problems where automatic NUMA balancing appears to be doing an excessive amount of useless work.

mm/memblock: add memblock memory allocation apis
Introduce memblock memory allocation APIs which allow to support PAE or LPAE extension on 32 bits archs where the physical memory start address can be beyond 4GB. In such cases, existing bootmem APIs which operate on 32 bit addresses won't work and needs memblock layer which operates on 64 bit addresses. So we add equivalent APIs so that we can replace usage of bootmem with memblock interfaces. Architectures already converted to NO_BOOTMEM use these new memblock interfaces. The architectures which are still not converted to NO_BOOTMEM continue to function as is because we still maintain the fal lback option of bootmem back-end supporting these new interfaces. So no functional change as such. In long run, once all the architectures moves to NO_BOOTMEM, we can get rid of bootmem layer completely. This is one step to remove the core code dependency with bootmem and also gives path for architectures to move away from bootmem. The proposed interface will became active if both CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK and CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM are specified by arch. In case !CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM, the memblock() wrappers will fallback to the existing bootmem apis so that arch's not converted to NO_BOOTMEM continue to work as is. The meaning of MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ACCESSIBLE and MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE is kept same.

mm/memblock: switch to use NUMA_NO_NODE instead of MAX_NUMNODES
It's recommended to use NUMA_NO_NODE everywhere to select "process any node" behavior or to indicate that "no node id specified". Hence, update __next_free_mem_range*() API's to accept both NUMA_NO_NODE and MAX_NUMNODES, but emit warning once on MAX_NUMNODES, and correct corresponding API's documentation to describe new behavior. Also, update other memblock/nobootmem APIs where MAX_NUMNODES is used dirrectly. The change was suggested by Tejun Heo.

introduce for_each_thread() to replace the buggy while_each_thread()
while_each_thread() and next_thread() should die, almost every lockless usage is wrong. 1. Unless g == current, the lockless while_each_thread() is not safe. while_each_thread(g, t) can loop forever if g exits, next_thread() can't reach the unhashed thread in this case. Note that this can happen even if g is the group leader, it can exec. 2. Even if while_each_thread() itself was correct, people often use it wrongly. It was never safe to just take rcu_read_lock() and loop unless you verify that pid_alive(g) == T, even the first next_thread() can point to the already freed/reused memory. This patch adds signal_struct->thread_head and task->thread_node to create the normal rcu-safe list with the stable head. The new for_each_thread(g, t) helper is always safe under rcu_read_lock() as long as this task_struct can't go away. Note: of course it is ugly to have both task_struct->thread_node and the old task_struct->thread_group, we will kill it later, after we change the users of while_each_thread() to use for_each_thread(). Perhaps we can kill it even before we convert all users, we can reimplement next_thread(t) using the new thread_head/thread_node. But we can't do this right now because this will lead to subtle behavioural changes. For example, do/while_each_thread() always sees at least one task, while for_each_thread() can do nothing if the whole thread group has died. Or thread_group_empty(), currently its semantics is not clear unless thread_group_leader(p) and we need to audit the callers before we can change it. So this patch adds the new interface which has to coexist with the old one for some time, hopefully the next changes will be more or less straightforward and the old one will go away soon.

memblock, mem_hotplug: make memblock skip hotpluggable regions if needed
Linux kernel cannot migrate pages used by the kernel. As a result, hotpluggable memory used by the kernel won't be able to be hot-removed. To solve this problem, the basic idea is to prevent memblock from allocating hotpluggable memory for the kernel at early time, and arrange all hotpluggable memory in ACPI SRAT(System Resource Affinity Table) as ZONE_MOVABLE when initializing zones. In the previous patches, we have marked hotpluggable memory regions with MEMBLOCK_HOTPLUG flag in memblock.memory. In this patch, we make memblock skip these hotpluggable memory regions in the default top-down allocation function if movable_node boot option is specified.

memblock, numa: introduce flags field into memblock
There is no flag in memblock to describe what type the memory is.
Sometimes, we may use memblock to reserve some memory for special usage.
And we want to know what kind of memory it is. So we need a way to
In hotplug environment, we want to reserve hotpluggable memory so the
kernel won't be able to use it. And when the system is up, we have to
free these hotpluggable memory to buddy. So we need to mark these
memory first.
In order to do so, we need to mark out these special memory in memblock.
In this patch, we introduce a new "flags" member into memblock_region:
struct memblock_region {
phys_addr_t base;
phys_addr_t size;
unsigned long flags; /* This is new. */
#ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP
int nid;
#endif
};
This patch does the following things:
1) Add "flags" member to memblock_region.
2) Modify the following APIs' prototype:
memblock_add_region()
memblock_insert_region()
3) Add memblock_reserve_region() to support reserve memory with flags, and keep
memblock_reserve()'s prototype unmodified.
4) Modify other APIs to support flags, but keep their prototype unmodified.
The idea is from Wen Congyang <wency@cn.fujitsu.com> and Liu Jiang <jiang.liu@huawei.com>.

mm: create a separate slab for page->ptl allocation
If DEBUG_SPINLOCK and DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC are enabled spinlock_t on x86_64 is 72 bytes. For page->ptl they will be allocated from kmalloc-96 slab, so we loose 24 on each. An average system can easily allocate few tens thousands of page->ptl and overhead is significant. Let's create a separate slab for page->ptl allocation to solve this. To make sure that it really works this time, some numbers from my test machine (just booted, no load): Before: # grep '^\(kmalloc-96\|page->ptl\)' /proc/slabinfo kmalloc-96 31987 32190 128 30 1 : tunables 120 60 8 : slabdata 1073 1073 92 After: # grep '^\(kmalloc-96\|page->ptl\)' /proc/slabinfo page->ptl 27516 28143 72 53 1 : tunables 120 60 8 : slabdata 531 531 9 kmalloc-96 3853 5280 128 30 1 : tunables 120 60 8 : slabdata 176 176 0 Note that the patch is useful not only for debug case, but also for PREEMPT_RT, where spinlock_t is always bloated.

mm: get rid of unnecessary pageblock scanning in setup_zone_migrate_reserve
Yasuaki Ishimatsu reported memory hot-add spent more than 5 _hours_ on
9TB memory machine since onlining memory sections is too slow. And we
found out setup_zone_migrate_reserve spent >90% of the time.
The problem is, setup_zone_migrate_reserve scans all pageblocks
unconditionally, but it is only necessary if the number of reserved
block was reduced (i.e. memory hot remove).
Moreover, maximum MIGRATE_RESERVE per zone is currently 2. It means
that the number of reserved pageblocks is almost always unchanged.
This patch adds zone->nr_migrate_reserve_block to maintain the number of
MIGRATE_RESERVE pageblocks and it reduces the overhead of
setup_zone_migrate_reserve dramatically. The following table shows time
of onlining a memory section.

mm: tail page refcounting optimization for slab and hugetlbfs
This skips the _mapcount mangling for slab and hugetlbfs pages. The main trouble in doing this is to guarantee that PageSlab and PageHeadHuge remains constant for all get_page/put_page run on the tail of slab or hugetlbfs compound pages. Otherwise if they're set during get_page but not set during put_page, the _mapcount of the tail page would underflow. PageHeadHuge will remain true until the compound page is released and enters the buddy allocator so it won't risk to change even if the tail page is the last reference left on the page. PG_slab instead is cleared before the slab frees the head page with put_page, so if the tail pin is released after the slab freed the page, we would have a problem. But in the slab case the tail pin cannot be the last reference left on the page. This is because the slab code is free to reuse the compound page after a kfree/kmem_cache_free without having to check if there's any tail pin left. In turn all tail pins must be always released while the head is still pinned by the slab code and so we know PG_slab will be still set too.

mm: thp: optimize compound_trans_huge
Currently we don't clobber page_tail->first_page during split_huge_page, so compound_trans_head can be set to compound_head without adverse effects, and this mostly optimizes away a smp_rmb. It looks worthwhile to keep around the implementation that doesn't relay on page_tail->first_page not to be clobbered, because it would be necessary if we'll decide to enforce page->private to zero at all times whenever PG_private is not set, also for anonymous pages. For anonymous pages enforcing such an invariant doesn't matter as anonymous pages don't use page->private so we can get away with this microoptimization.

So, add some VM_BUG_ON()s for the next hapless VM developer that tries the same thing.
