In the current implementation of the EPOLLEXCLUSIVE flag (added for
4.5-rc1), if epoll waiters create different POLL* sets and register them
as exclusive against the same target fd, the current implementation will
stop waking any further waiters once it finds the first idle waiter.
This means that waiters could miss wakeups in certain cases.
For example, when we wake up a pipe for reading we do:
wake_up_interruptible_sync_poll(&pipe->wait, POLLIN | POLLRDNORM); So if
one epoll set or epfd is added to pipe p with POLLIN and a second set
epfd2 is added to pipe p with POLLRDNORM, only epfd may receive the
wakeup since the current implementation will stop after it finds any
intersection of events with a waiter that is blocked in epoll_wait().
We could potentially address this by requiring all epoll waiters that
are added to p be required to pass the same set of POLL* events. IE the
first EPOLL_CTL_ADD that passes EPOLLEXCLUSIVE establishes the set POLL*
flags to be used by any other epfds that are added as EPOLLEXCLUSIVE.
However, I think it might be somewhat confusing interface as we would
have to reference count the number of users for that set, and so
userspace would have to keep track of that count, or we would need a
more involved interface. It also adds some shared state that we'd have
store somewhere. I don't think anybody will want to bloat
__wait_queue_head for this.
I think what we could do instead, is to simply restrict EPOLLEXCLUSIVE
such that it can only be specified with EPOLLIN and/or EPOLLOUT. So
that way if the wakeup includes 'POLLIN' and not 'POLLOUT', we can stop
once we hit the first idle waiter that specifies the EPOLLIN bit, since
any remaining waiters that only have 'POLLOUT' set wouldn't need to be
woken. Likewise, we can do the same thing if 'POLLOUT' is in the wakeup
bit set and not 'POLLIN'. If both 'POLLOUT' and 'POLLIN' are set in the
wake bit set (there is at least one example of this I saw in fs/pipe.c),
then we just wake the entire exclusive list. Having both 'POLLOUT' and
'POLLIN' both set should not be on any performance critical path, so I
think that's ok (in fs/pipe.c its in pipe_release()). We also continue
to include EPOLLERR and EPOLLHUP by default in any exclusive set. Thus,
the user can specify EPOLLERR and/or EPOLLHUP but is not required to do
so.
Since epoll waiters may be interested in other events as well besides
EPOLLIN, EPOLLOUT, EPOLLERR and EPOLLHUP, these can still be added by
doing a 'dup' call on the target fd and adding that as one normally
would with EPOLL_CTL_ADD. Since I think that the POLLIN and POLLOUT
events are what we are interest in balancing, I think that the 'dup'
thing could perhaps be added to only one of the waiter threads.
However, I think that EPOLLIN, EPOLLOUT, EPOLLERR and EPOLLHUP should be
sufficient for the majority of use-cases.
Since EPOLLEXCLUSIVE is intended to be used with a target fd shared
among multiple epfds, where between 1 and n of the epfds may receive an
event, it does not satisfy the semantics of EPOLLONESHOT where only 1
epfd would get an event. Thus, it is not allowed to be specified in
conjunction with EPOLLEXCLUSIVE.
EPOLL_CTL_MOD is also not allowed if the fd was previously added as
EPOLLEXCLUSIVE. It seems with the limited number of flags to not be as
interesting, but this could be relaxed at some further point.

Previously the pfn_mkwrite() fault handler for raw block devices called
bldev_dax_fault() -> __dax_fault() to do a full DAX page fault.
Really what the pfn_mkwrite() fault handler needs to do is call
dax_pfn_mkwrite() to make sure that the radix tree entry for the given
PTE is marked as dirty so that a follow-up fsync or msync call will
flush it durably to media.

Commit b76437579d ("procfs: mark thread stack correctly in
proc/<pid>/maps") added [stack:TID] annotation to /proc/<pid>/maps.
Finding the task of a stack VMA requires walking the entire thread list,
turning this into quadratic behavior: a thousand threads means a
thousand stacks, so the rendering of /proc/<pid>/maps needs to look at a
million combinations.
The cost is not in proportion to the usefulness as described in the
patch.
Drop the [stack:TID] annotation to make /proc/<pid>/maps (and
/proc/<pid>/numa_maps) usable again for higher thread counts.
The [stack] annotation inside /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/maps is retained, as
identifying the stack VMA there is an O(1) operation.
Siddesh said:
"The end users needed a way to identify thread stacks programmatically and
there wasn't a way to do that. I'm afraid I no longer remember (or have
access to the resources that would aid my memory since I changed
employers) the details of their requirement. However, I did do this on my
own time because I thought it was an interesting project for me and nobody
really gave any feedback then as to its utility, so as far as I am
concerned you could roll back the main thread maps information since the
information is available in the thread-specific files"

When working with hugetlbfs ptes (which are actually pmds) is not valid to
directly use pte functions like pte_present() because the hardware bit
layout of pmds and ptes can be different. This is the case on s390.
Therefore we have to convert the hugetlbfs ptes first into a valid pte
encoding with huge_ptep_get().
Currently the /proc/<pid>/numa_maps code uses hugetlbfs ptes without
huge_ptep_get(). On s390 this leads to the following two problems:
1) The pte_present() function returns false (instead of true) for
PROT_NONE hugetlb ptes. Therefore PROT_NONE vmas are missing
completely in the "numa_maps" output.
2) The pte_dirty() function always returns false for all hugetlb ptes.
Therefore these pages are reported as "mapped=xxx" instead of
"dirty=xxx".
Therefore use huge_ptep_get() to correctly convert the hugetlb ptes.

Dynamically enabling DAX requires that the page cache first be flushed
and invalidated. This must occur atomically with the change of DAX mode
otherwise we confuse the fsync/msync tracking and violate data
durability guarantees. Eliminate the possibilty of DAX-disabled to
DAX-enabled transitions for now and revisit this for the next cycle.

one of which was keeping our sysfs files more up to date with feature
bits as different things get enabled (lzo, raid5/6, etc).
I should have kept the sysfs stuff for rc3, since we always manage to
trip over something. This time it was GFP_KERNEL from somewhere that
is NOFS only. Instead of rebasing it out I've put a revert in, and
we'll fix it properly for rc3.
Otherwise, Filipe fixed a btrfs DIO race and Qu Wenruo fixed up a
use-after-free in our tracepoints that Dave Jones reported"

The layoutreturn code currently relies on pnfs_put_lseg() to initiate the
RPC call when conditions are right. A problem arises when we want to
free the layout segment from inside an inode->i_lock section (e.g. in
pnfs_clear_request_commit()), since we cannot sleep.
The workaround is to move the actual call to pnfs_send_layoutreturn()
to pnfs_put_layout_hdr(), which doesn't have this restriction.
