x86/mm/64: Rename the register_page_bootmem_memmap() 'size' parameter to 'nr_pages'

2017-12-25T13:26:16Z

commit 15670bfe19905b1dcbb63137f40d718b59d84479 upstream. register_page_bootmem_memmap()'s 3rd 'size' parameter is named in a somewhat misleading fashion - rename it to 'nr_pages' which makes the units of it much clearer. Meanwhile rename the existing local variable 'nr_pages' to 'nr_pmd_pages', a more expressive name, to avoid conflict with new function parameter 'nr_pages'. (Also clean up the unnecessary parentheses in which get_order() is called.)

mm: introduce get_user_pages_longterm

2017-12-05T10:26:28Z

commit 2bb6d2837083de722bfdc369cb0d76ce188dd9b4 upstream. Patch series "introduce get_user_pages_longterm()", v2. Here is a new get_user_pages api for cases where a driver intends to keep an elevated page count indefinitely. This is distinct from usages like iov_iter_get_pages where the elevated page counts are transient. The iov_iter_get_pages cases immediately turn around and submit the pages to a device driver which will put_page when the i/o operation completes (under kernel control). In the longterm case userspace is responsible for dropping the page reference at some undefined point in the future. This is untenable for filesystem-dax case where the filesystem is in control of the lifetime of the block / page and needs reasonable limits on how long it can wait for pages in a mapping to become idle. Fixing filesystems to actually wait for dax pages to be idle before blocks from a truncate/hole-punch operation are repurposed is saved for a later patch series. Also, allowing longterm registration of dax mappings is a future patch series that introduces a "map with lease" semantic where the kernel can revoke a lease and force userspace to drop its page references. I have also tagged these for -stable to purposely break cases that might assume that longterm memory registrations for filesystem-dax mappings were supported by the kernel. The behavior regression this policy change implies is one of the reasons we maintain the "dax enabled. Warning: EXPERIMENTAL, use at your own risk" notification when mounting a filesystem in dax mode. It is worth noting the device-dax interface does not suffer the same constraints since it does not support file space management operations like hole-punch. This patch (of 4): Until there is a solution to the dma-to-dax vs truncate problem it is not safe to allow long standing memory registrations against filesytem-dax vmas. Device-dax vmas do not have this problem and are explicitly allowed. This is temporary until a "memory registration with layout-lease" mechanism can be implemented for the affected sub-systems (RDMA and V4L2).

mm, hugetlbfs: introduce ->split() to vm_operations_struct

2017-12-05T10:26:28Z

commit 31383c6865a578834dd953d9dbc88e6b19fe3997 upstream. Patch series "device-dax: fix unaligned munmap handling" When device-dax is operating in huge-page mode we want it to behave like hugetlbfs and fail attempts to split vmas into unaligned ranges. It would be messy to teach the munmap path about device-dax alignment constraints in the same (hstate) way that hugetlbfs communicates this constraint. Instead, these patches introduce a new ->split() vm operation. This patch (of 2): The device-dax interface has similar constraints as hugetlbfs in that it requires the munmap path to unmap in huge page aligned units. Rather than add more custom vma handling code in __split_vma() introduce a new vm operation to perform this vma specific check.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55Z

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches. Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart Reviewed-by: Philippe Ombredanne Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

include/linux/mm.h: fix typo in VM_MPX definition

2017-10-04T00:54:23Z

There's a typo in recent change of VM_MPX definition. We want it to be VM_HIGH_ARCH_4, not VM_HIGH_ARCH_BIT_4. This bug does cause visible regressions. In arch_vma_name the vmflags are tested against VM_MPX. With the incorrect value of VM_MPX, a number of vmas (such as the stack) test positive and end up being marked as "[mpx]" in /proc/N/maps instead of their correct names. This confuses tools like rr which expect to be able to find familiar vmas.

lib/interval_tree: fast overlap detection

2017-09-09T01:26:49Z

Allow interval trees to quickly check for overlaps to avoid unnecesary tree lookups in interval_tree_iter_first(). As of this patch, all interval tree flavors will require using a 'rb_root_cached' such that we can have the leftmost node easily available. While most users will make use of this feature, those with special functions (in addition to the generic insert, delete, search calls) will avoid using the cached option as they can do funky things with insertions -- for example, vma_interval_tree_insert_after().

mm/ZONE_DEVICE: new type of ZONE_DEVICE for unaddressable memory

2017-09-09T01:26:46Z

HMM (heterogeneous memory management) need struct page to support migration from system main memory to device memory. Reasons for HMM and migration to device memory is explained with HMM core patch. This patch deals with device memory that is un-addressable memory (ie CPU can not access it). Hence we do not want those struct page to be manage like regular memory. That is why we extend ZONE_DEVICE to support different types of memory. A persistent memory type is define for existing user of ZONE_DEVICE and a new device un-addressable type is added for the un-addressable memory type. There is a clear separation between what is expected from each memory type and existing user of ZONE_DEVICE are un-affected by new requirement and new use of the un-addressable type. All specific code path are protect with test against the memory type. Because memory is un-addressable we use a new special swap type for when a page is migrated to device memory (this reduces the number of maximum swap file). The main two additions beside memory type to ZONE_DEVICE is two callbacks. First one, page_free() is call whenever page refcount reach 1 (which means the page is free as ZONE_DEVICE page never reach a refcount of 0). This allow device driver to manage its memory and associated struct page. The second callback page_fault() happens when there is a CPU access to an address that is back by a device page (which are un-addressable by the CPU). This callback is responsible to migrate the page back to system main memory. Device driver can not block migration back to system memory, HMM make sure that such page can not be pin into device memory. If device is in some error condition and can not migrate memory back then a CPU page fault to device memory should end with SIGBUS.
