Commit 0139aa7b7fa ("mm: rename _count, field of the struct page, to
_refcount") left out a couple of references to the old field name.  Fix
that.

<title>mm/debug.c: fix __dump_page when mapping-&gt;host is not set</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5ae2efb1dea9f537453e841714e3ee2757595aec</id>
<content type='text'>
While debugging something, I added a dump_page() into do_swap_page(),
and I got the splat from below.  The issue happens when dereferencing
mapping-&gt;host in __dump_page():

  ...
  else if (mapping) {
	pr_warn("%ps ", mapping-&gt;a_ops);
	if (mapping-&gt;host-&gt;i_dentry.first) {
		struct dentry *dentry;
		dentry = container_of(mapping-&gt;host-&gt;i_dentry.first, struct dentry, d_u.d_alias);
		pr_warn("name:\"%pd\" ", dentry);
	}
  }
  ...

Swap address space does not contain an inode information, and so
mapping-&gt;host equals NULL.

Although the dump_page() call was added artificially into
do_swap_page(), I am not sure if we can hit this from any other path, so
it looks worth fixing it.  We can easily do that by checking
mapping-&gt;host first.

atomic64_read() on ppc64le returns "long int", so fix the same way as
commit d549f545e690 ("drm/virtio: use %llu format string form
atomic64_t") by adding a cast to u64, which makes it work on all arches.

   - Allow lookup up objects by an ID over netlink

   - Various reworking of the core to driver interface:
       - drivers should not assume umem SGLs are in PAGE_SIZE chunks
       - ucontext is accessed via udata not other means
       - start to make the core code responsible for object memory
         allocation
       - drivers should convert struct device to struct ib_device via a
         helper

Evaluating page_mapping() on a poisoned page ends up dereferencing junk

Fix that by not inspecting the mapping until we've determined that it's

Taking a sleeping lock to _only_ increment a variable is quite the
overkill, and pretty much all users do this. Furthermore, some drivers
(ie: infiniband and scif) that need pinned semantics can go to quite
some trouble to actually delay via workqueue (un)accounting for pinned
pages when not possible to acquire it.

By making the counter atomic we no longer need to hold the mmap_sem and
can simply some code around it for pinned_vm users. The counter is 64-bit
such that we need not worry about overflows such as rdma user input
controlled from userspace.

<title>mm: lower the printk loglevel for __dump_page messages</title>

__dump_page messages use KERN_EMERG resp.  KERN_ALERT loglevel (this is
the case since 2004).  Most callers of this function are really detecting
a critical page state and BUG right after.  On the other hand the function
is called also from contexts which just want to inform about the page
state and those would rather not disrupt logs that much (e.g.  some
systems route these messages to the normal console).

Reduce the loglevel to KERN_WARNING to make dump_page easier to reuse for
other contexts while those messages will still make it to the kernel log
in most setups.  Even if the loglevel setup filters warnings away those
paths that are really critical already print the more targeted error or
panic and that should make it to the kernel log.

I have been promissing to improve memory offlining failures debugging for
quite some time.  As things stand now we get only very limited information
in the kernel log when the offlining fails.  It is usually only

[ 1984.506184] rac1 kernel: memory offlining [mem 0x82600000000-0x8267fffffff] failed

with no further details.  We do not know what exactly fails and for what
reason.  Whenever I was forced to debug such a failure I've always had to
do a debugging patch to tell me more.  We can enable some tracepoints but
it would be much better to get a better picture without using them.

This patch series does 2 things.  The first one is to make dump_page more
usable by printing more information about the mapping patch 1.  Then it
reduces the log level from emerg to warning so that this function is
usable from less critical context patch 2.  Then I have added more
detailed information about the offlining failure patch 4 and finally add
dump_page to isolation and offlining migration paths.  Patch 3 is a
trivial cleanup.

This patch (of 6):

__dump_page prints the mapping pointer but that is quite unhelpful for
many reports because the pointer itself only helps to distinguish anon/ksm
mappings from other ones (because of lowest bits set).  Sometimes it would
be much more helpful to know what kind of mapping that is actually and if
we know this is a file mapping then also try to resolve the dentry name.

Patch series "Address issues slowing persistent memory initialization", v5.

The main thing this patch set achieves is that it allows us to initialize
each node worth of persistent memory independently.  As a result we reduce
page init time by about 2 minutes because instead of taking 30 to 40
seconds per node and going through each node one at a time, we process all
4 nodes in parallel in the case of a 12TB persistent memory setup spread
evenly over 4 nodes.

This patch (of 3):

On systems with a large amount of memory it can take a significant amount
of time to initialize all of the page structs with the PAGE_POISON_PATTERN
value.  I have seen it take over 2 minutes to initialize a system with
over 12TB of RAM.

In order to work around the issue I had to disable CONFIG_DEBUG_VM and
then the boot time returned to something much more reasonable as the
arch_add_memory call completed in milliseconds versus seconds.  However in
doing that I had to disable all of the other VM debugging on the system.

In order to work around a kernel that might have CONFIG_DEBUG_VM enabled
on a system that has a large amount of memory I have added a new kernel
parameter named "vm_debug" that can be set to "-" in order to disable it.
