When we debug something, we'd like to insert some information to every
page. For this purpose, we sometimes modify struct page itself. But,
this has drawbacks. First, it requires re-compile. This makes us
hesitate to use the powerful debug feature so development process is
slowed down. And, second, sometimes it is impossible to rebuild the
kernel due to third party module dependency. At third, system behaviour
would be largely different after re-compile, because it changes size of
struct page greatly and this structure is accessed by every part of
kernel. Keeping this as it is would be better to reproduce errornous
situation.
This feature is intended to overcome above mentioned problems. This
feature allocates memory for extended data per page in certain place
rather than the struct page itself. This memory can be accessed by the
accessor functions provided by this code. During the boot process, it
checks whether allocation of huge chunk of memory is needed or not. If
not, it avoids allocating memory at all. With this advantage, we can
include this feature into the kernel in default and can avoid rebuild and
solve related problems.
Until now, memcg uses this technique. But, now, memcg decides to embed
their variable to struct page itself and it's code to extend struct page
has been removed. I'd like to use this code to develop debug feature, so
this patch resurrect it.
To help these things to work well, this patch introduces two callbacks for
clients. One is the need callback which is mandatory if user wants to
avoid useless memory allocation at boot-time. The other is optional, init
callback, which is used to do proper initialization after memory is
allocated. Detailed explanation about purpose of these functions is in
code comment. Please refer it.
Others are completely same with previous extension code in memcg.

__memcg_kmem_get_cache can recurse if it calls kmalloc (which it does if
the cgroup's kmem cache doesn't exist), because kmalloc may call
__memcg_kmem_get_cache internally again. To avoid the recursion, we use
the task_struct->memcg_kmem_skip_account flag.
However, there's no need checking the flag in memcg_kmem_newpage_charge,
because there's no way how this function could result in recursion, if
called from memcg_kmem_get_cache. So let's remove the redundant code.

task_struct->memcg_kmem_skip_account was initially introduced to avoid
recursion during kmem cache creation: memcg_kmem_get_cache, which is
called by kmem_cache_alloc to determine the per-memcg cache to account
allocation to, may issue lazy cache creation if the needed cache doesn't
exist, which means issuing yet another kmem_cache_alloc. We can't just
pass a flag to the nested kmem_cache_alloc disabling kmem accounting,
because there are hidden allocations, e.g. in INIT_WORK. So we
introduced a flag on the task_struct, memcg_kmem_skip_account, making
memcg_kmem_get_cache return immediately.
By its nature, the flag may also be used to disable accounting for
allocations shared among different cgroups, and currently it is used this
way in memcg_activate_kmem. Using it like this looks like abusing it to
me. If we want to disable accounting for some allocations (which we will
definitely want one day), we should either add GFP_NO_MEMCG or GFP_MEMCG
flag in order to blacklist/whitelist some allocations.
For now, let's simply remove memcg_stop/resume_kmem_account from
memcg_activate_kmem.

The alignment in cma_alloc() was done w.r.t. the bitmap. This is a
problem when, for example:
- a device requires 16M (order 12) alignment
- the CMA region is not 16 M aligned
In such a case, can result with the CMA region starting at, say,
0x2f800000 but any allocation you make from there will be aligned from
there. Requesting an allocation of 32 M with 16 M alignment will result
in an allocation from 0x2f800000 to 0x31800000, which doesn't work very
well if your strange device requires 16M alignment.
Change to use bitmap_find_next_zero_area_off() to account for the
difference in alignment at reserve-time and alloc-time.

The i_mmap_mutex is a close cousin of the anon vma lock, both protecting
similar data, one for file backed pages and the other for anon memory. To
this end, this lock can also be a rwsem. In addition, there are some
important opportunities to share the lock when there are no tree
modifications.
This conversion is straightforward. For now, all users take the write
lock.

This series is a continuation of the conversion of the i_mmap_mutex to
rwsem, following what we have for the anon memory counterpart. With
Hugh's feedback from the first iteration.
Ultimately, the most obvious paths that require exclusive ownership of the
lock is when we modify the VMA interval tree, via
vma_interval_tree_insert() and vma_interval_tree_remove() families. Cases
such as unmapping, where the ptes content is changed but the tree remains
untouched should make it safe to share the i_mmap_rwsem.
As such, the code of course is straightforward, however the devil is very
much in the details. While its been tested on a number of workloads
without anything exploding, I would not be surprised if there are some
less documented/known assumptions about the lock that could suffer from
these changes. Or maybe I'm just missing something, but either way I
believe its at the point where it could use more eyes and hopefully some
time in linux-next.
Because the lock type conversion is the heart of this patchset,
its worth noting a few comparisons between mutex vs rwsem (xadd):
(i) Same size, no extra footprint.
(ii) Both have CONFIG_XXX_SPIN_ON_OWNER capabilities for
exclusive lock ownership.
(iii) Both can be slightly unfair wrt exclusive ownership, with
writer lock stealing properties, not necessarily respecting
FIFO order for granting the lock when contended.
(iv) Mutexes can be slightly faster than rwsems when
the lock is non-contended.
(v) Both suck at performance for debug (slowpaths), which
shouldn't matter anyway.
Sharing the lock is obviously beneficial, and sem writer ownership is
close enough to mutexes. The biggest winner of these changes is
migration.
As for concrete numbers, the following performance results are for a
4-socket 60-core IvyBridge-EX with 130Gb of RAM.
Both alltests and disk (xfs+ramdisk) workloads of aim7 suite do quite well
with this set, with a steady ~60% throughput (jpm) increase for alltests
and up to ~30% for disk for high amounts of concurrency. Lower counts of
workload users (< 100) does not show much difference at all, so at least
no regressions.

In addition, a 67.5% increase in successfully migrated NUMA pages, thus
improving node locality.
The patch layout is simple but designed for bisection (in case reversion
is needed if the changes break upstream) and easier review:
o Patches 1-4 convert the i_mmap lock from mutex to rwsem.
o Patches 5-10 share the lock in specific paths, each patch
details the rationale behind why it should be safe.
This patchset has been tested with: postgres 9.4 (with brand new hugetlb
support), hugetlbfs test suite (all tests pass, in fact more tests pass
with these changes than with an upstream kernel), ltp, aim7 benchmarks,
memcached and iozone with the -B option for mmap'ing. *Untested* paths
are nommu, memory-failure, uprobes and xip.
This patch (of 8):
Various parts of the kernel acquire and release this mutex, so add
i_mmap_lock_write() and immap_unlock_write() helper functions that will
encapsulate this logic. The next patch will make use of these.

Commit 7654e9d4fd ("drivers/rtc/rtc-snvs: fix suspend/resume")
replaces SIMPLE_DEV_PM_OPS with direct declaration of snvs_rtc_pm_ops,
but does so outside #ifdef CONFIG_PM_SLEEP. This causes the driver
build to fail if CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is not configured.

If a touchpad reports the F11 data40 register then this indicates that the touchpad reports
additional ACM (Accidental Contact Mitigation) data after the F11 data in the HID attention
report. These additional bytes shift the position of the F30 button data causing the driver
to incorrectly report button state when this functionality is present. This patch accounts
for the additional data in the report.

Before ->start() is called, bufsize size is set to HID_MIN_BUFFER_SIZE,
64 bytes. While processing the IRQ, we were asking to receive up to
wMaxInputLength bytes, which can be bigger than 64 bytes.
Later, when ->start is run, a proper bufsize will be calculated.
Given wMaxInputLength is said to be unreliable in other part of the
code, set to receive only what we can even if it results in truncated

"Work items which may be involved in memory reclaim path may be
executed by the rescuer under memory pressure. When a rescuer gets
activated, it processes whatever are on the pending list and then goes
back to sleep until the manager kicks it again which involves 100ms
delay.
This is problematic for self-requeueing work items or the ones running
on ordered workqueues as there always is only one work item on the
pending list when the rescuer kicks in. The execution of that work
item produces more to execute but the rescuer won't see them until
after the said 100ms has passed, so such workqueues would only execute
one work item every 100ms under prolonged memory pressure, which BTW
may be being prolonged due to the slow execution.
