This series makes creation of the zpool and compressor dynamic, so that
they can be changed at runtime. This makes using/configuring zswap
easier, as before this zswap had to be configured at boot time, using boot
params.
This uses a single list to track both the zpool and compressor together,
although Seth had mentioned an alternative which is to track the zpools
and compressors using separate lists. In the most common case, only a
single zpool and single compressor, using one list is slightly simpler
than using two lists, and for the uncommon case of multiple zpools and/or
compressors, using one list is slightly less simple (and uses slightly
more memory, probably) than using two lists.
This patch (of 4):
Add zpool_has_pool() function, indicating if the specified type of zpool
is available (i.e. zsmalloc or zbud). This allows checking if a pool is
available, without actually trying to allocate it, similar to
crypto_has_alg().
This is used by a following patch to zswap that enables the dynamic
runtime creation of zswap zpools.

Pull inifiniband/rdma updates from Doug Ledford:
"This is a fairly sizeable set of changes. I've put them through a
decent amount of testing prior to sending the pull request due to
that.
There are still a few fixups that I know are coming, but I wanted to
go ahead and get the big, sizable chunk into your hands sooner rather
than waiting for those last few fixups.
Of note is the fact that this creates what is intended to be a
temporary area in the drivers/staging tree specifically for some
cleanups and additions that are coming for the RDMA stack. We
deprecated two drivers (ipath and amso1100) and are waiting to hear
back if we can deprecate another one (ehca). We also put Intel's new
hfi1 driver into this area because it needs to be refactored and a
transfer library created out of the factored out code, and then it and
the qib driver and the soft-roce driver should all be modified to use
that library.
I expect drivers/staging/rdma to be around for three or four kernel
releases and then to go away as all of the work is completed and final
deletions of deprecated drivers are done.
Summary of changes for 4.3:
- Create drivers/staging/rdma
- Move amso1100 driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion
- Move ipath driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion
- Add hfi1 driver to staging/rdma and set TODO for move to regular
tree
- Initial support for namespaces to be used on RDMA devices
- Add RoCE GID table handling to the RDMA core caching code
- Infrastructure to support handling of devices with differing read
and write scatter gather capabilities
- Various iSER updates
- Kill off unsafe usage of global mr registrations
- Update SRP driver
- Misc mlx4 driver updates
- Support for the mr_alloc verb
- Support for a netlink interface between kernel and user space cache
daemon to speed path record queries and route resolution
- Ininitial support for safe hot removal of verbs devices"

Pull IPMI updates from Corey Minyard:
"Most of these have been sitting in linux-next for more than a release,
particularly commit 0fbcf4af7c ("ipmi: Convert the IPMI SI ACPI
handling to a platform device") which is probably the most complex
patch.
That is also the one that changes drivers/acpi/acpi_pnp.c. The change
in that file is only removing IPMI from a "special platform devices"
list, since I convert it to the standard PNP interface. I posted this
one to the ACPI list twice and got no response, and it seems to work
well in my testing, so I'm hoping it's good.
Hidehiro Kawai posted a set of changes that improves the panic time
handling in the IPMI driver.
The rest of the changes are minor bug fixes or cleanups and some
documentation"

"This time the IOMMU updates are mostly cleanups or fixes. No big new

- Bigger cleanup of the Domain<->IOMMU data structures and the code
that manages them in the Intel VT-d driver. This makes the code
easier to understand and maintain, and also easier to keep the data
structures in sync. It is also a preparation step to make use of
default domains from the IOMMU core in the Intel VT-d driver.
- Fixes for a couple of DMA-API misuses in ARM IOMMU drivers, namely
in the ARM and Tegra SMMU drivers.
- Fix for a potential buffer overflow in the OMAP iommu driver's
debug code
- A couple of smaller fixes and cleanups in various drivers

Pull regmap updates from Mark Brown:
"This has been a busy release for regmap.
By far the biggest set of changes here are those from Markus Pargmann
which implement support for block transfers in smbus devices. This
required quite a bit of refactoring but leaves us better able to
handle odd restrictions that controllers may have and with better
performance on smbus.
Other new features include:
- Fix interactions with lockdep for nested regmaps (eg, when a device
using regmap is connected to a bus where the bus controller has a
separate regmap). Lockdep's default class identification is too
crude to work without help.
- Support for must write bitfield operations, useful for operations
which require writing a bit to trigger them from Kuniori Morimoto.
- Support for delaying during register patch application from Nariman
Poushin.

Make zram syslog error reporting more consistent. We have random
error levels in some places. For example, critical errors like
"Error allocating memory for compressed page"
and
"Unable to allocate temp memory"
are reported as KERN_INFO messages.
a) Reassign error levels
Error messages that directly affect zram
functionality -- pr_err():
Error allocating zram address table
Error creating memory pool
Decompression failed! err=%d, page=%u
Unable to allocate temp memory
Compression failed! err=%d
Error allocating memory for compressed page: %u, size=%zu
Cannot initialise %s compressing backend
Error allocating disk queue for device %d
Error allocating disk structure for device %d
Error creating sysfs group for device %d
Unable to register zram-control class
Unable to get major number
Messages that do not affect functionality, but user
must be warned (because sysfs attrs will be removed in
this particular case) -- pr_warn():
%d (%s) Attribute %s (and others) will be removed. %s
Messages that do not affect functionality and mostly are
informative -- pr_info():
Cannot change max compression streams
Can't change algorithm for initialized device
Cannot change disksize for initialized device
Added device: %s
Removed device: %s
b) Update sysfs_create_group() error message
First, it lacks a trailing new line; add it. Second, every error message
in zram_add() has a "for device %d" part, which makes errors more
informative. Add missing part to "Error creating sysfs group" message.

We can avoid taking class ->lock around zs_can_compact() in
zs_shrinker_count(), because the number that we return back is outdated
in general case, by design. We have different sources that are able to
change class's state right after we return from zs_can_compact() --
ongoing I/O operations, manually triggered compaction, or two of them
happening simultaneously.
We re-do this calculations during compaction on a per class basis
anyway.
zs_unregister_shrinker() will not return until we have an active
shrinker, so classes won't unexpectedly disappear while
zs_shrinker_count() iterates them.

pages. Put a page with higher ->inuse count first within its
->fullness_list, which will give us better chances to fill up this page
with new objects (find_get_zspage() return ->fullness_list head for new
object allocation), so some zspages will become ZS_ALMOST_FULL/ZS_FULL
quicker.
It performs a trivial and cheap ->inuse compare which does not slow down
zsmalloc and in the worst case keeps the list pages in no particular
order.
A more expensive solution could sort fullness_list by ->inuse count.

Perform automatic pool compaction by a shrinker when system is getting
tight on memory.
User-space has a very little knowledge regarding zsmalloc fragmentation
and basically has no mechanism to tell whether compaction will result in
any memory gain. Another issue is that user space is not always aware
of the fact that system is getting tight on memory. Which leads to very
uncomfortable scenarios when user space may start issuing compaction
'randomly' or from crontab (for example). Fragmentation is not always
necessarily bad, allocated and unused objects, after all, may be filled
with the data later, w/o the need of allocating a new zspage. On the
other hand, we obviously don't want to waste memory when the system
needs it.
Compaction now has a relatively quick pool scan so we are able to
estimate the number of pages that will be freed easily, which makes it
possible to call this function from a shrinker->count_objects()
callback. We also abort compaction as soon as we detect that we can't
free any pages any more, preventing wasteful objects migrations.

Compaction returns back to zram the number of migrated objects, which is
quite uninformative -- we have objects of different sizes so user space
cannot obtain any valuable data from that number. Change compaction to
operate in terms of pages and return back to compaction issuer the
number of pages that were freed during compaction. So from now on we
will export more meaningful value in zram<id>/mm_stat -- the number of
freed (compacted) pages.
This requires:
(a) a rename of `num_migrated' to 'pages_compacted'
(b) a internal API change -- return first_page's fullness_group from
putback_zspage(), so we know when putback_zspage() did
free_zspage(). It helps us to account compaction stats correctly.
