Merge tag 'xfs-for-linus-4.5-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dgc/linux-xfs
Pull more xfs updates from Dave Chinner:
"This is the second update for XFS that I mentioned in the original
pull request last week.
It contains a revert for a suspend regression in 4.4 and a fix for a
long standing log recovery issue that has been further exposed by all
the log recovery changes made in the original 4.5 merge.
There is one more thing in this pull request - one that I forgot to
merge into the origin. That is, pulling the XFS_IOC_FS[GS]ETXATTR
ioctl up to the VFS level so that other filesystems can also use it
for modifying project quota IDs
Summary:
- promotion of XFS_IOC_FS[GS]ETXATTR ioctl to the vfs level so that
it can be shared with other filesystems. The ext4 project quota
functionality is the first target for this. The commits in this
series have not been updated with review or final SOB tags because
the branch they were originally published in was needed by ext4.
Those tags are:
Reviewed-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <david@fromrobit.com>
- Revert a change that is causing suspend failures.
- Fix a use-after-free that can occur on log mount failures. Been
around forever, but now exposed by other changes to log recovery
made in the first 4.5 merge"
* tag 'xfs-for-linus-4.5-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dgc/linux-xfs:

epoll: add EPOLLEXCLUSIVE flag
Currently, epoll file descriptors or epfds (the fd returned from epoll_create[1]()) that are added to a shared wakeup source are always added in a non-exclusive manner. This means that when we have multiple epfds attached to a shared fd source they are all woken up. This creates thundering herd type behavior. Introduce a new 'EPOLLEXCLUSIVE' flag that can be passed as part of the 'event' argument during an epoll_ctl() EPOLL_CTL_ADD operation. This new flag allows for exclusive wakeups when there are multiple epfds attached to a shared fd event source. The implementation walks the list of exclusive waiters, and queues an event to each epfd, until it finds the first waiter that has threads blocked on it via epoll_wait(). The idea is to search for threads which are idle and ready to process the wakeup events. Thus, we queue an event to at least 1 epfd, but may still potentially queue an event to all epfds that are attached to the shared fd source. Performance testing was done by Madars Vitolins using a modified version of Enduro/X. The use of the 'EPOLLEXCLUSIVE' flag reduce the length of this particular workload from 860s down to 24s. Sample epoll_clt text: EPOLLEXCLUSIVE Sets an exclusive wakeup mode for the epfd file descriptor that is being attached to the target file descriptor, fd. Thus, when an event occurs and multiple epfd file descriptors are attached to the same target file using EPOLLEXCLUSIVE, one or more epfds will receive an event with epoll_wait(2). The default in this scenario (when EPOLLEXCLUSIVE is not set) is for all epfds to receive an event. EPOLLEXCLUSIVE may only be specified with the op EPOLL_CTL_ADD.

Merge tag 'sound-4.5-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound
Pull sound updates from Takashi Iwai:
"We've had quite busy weeks in this cycle. Looking at ALSA core, the
significant changes are a few fixes wrt timer and sequencer ioctls
that have been revealed by fuzzer recently. Other than that, ASoC
core got a few updates about DAI link handling, but these are rather
straightforward refactoring.
In drivers scene, ASoC received quite lots of new drivers in addition
to bunch of updates for still ongoing Intel Skylake support and
topology API. HD-audio gained a new HDMI/DP hotplug notification via
component. FireWire got a pile of code refactoring/updates with
SCS.1x driver integration.
More highlights are shown below.
[ NOTE: this contains also many commits for DRM. This is due to the
pull of drm stable branch into sound tree, as the base of i915 audio
component work for HD-audio. The highlights below don't contain
these DRM changes, as these are supposed to be pulled via drm tree
in anyway sooner or later. ]
Core:
- Handful fixes to harden ALSA timer and sequencer ioctls against
races reported by syzkaller fuzzer
- Irq description string can be unique to each card; only for
HD-audio for now
ASoC:
- Conversion of the array of DAI links to a list for supporting
dynamically adding and removing DAI links
- Topology API enhancements to make everything more component based
and being able to specify PCM links via topology
- Some more fixes for the topology code, though it is still not final
and ready for enabling in production; we really need to get to the
point where that can be done
- A pile of changes for Intel SkyLake drivers which hopefully deliver
some useful initial functionality for systems with this chipset,
though there is more work still to come
- Lots of new features and cleanups for the Renesas drivers
- ANC support for WM5110
- New drivers: Imagination Technologies IPs, Atmel class D speaker,
Cirrus CS47L24 and WM1831, Dialog DA7128, Realtek RT5659 and
RT56156, Rockchip RK3036, TI PC3168A, and AMD ACP
- Rename PCM1792a driver to be generic pcm179x
HD-Audio:
- Use audio component for i915 HDMI/DP hotplug handling
- On-demand binding with i915 driver
- bdl_pos_adj parameter adjustment for Baytrail controllers
- Enable power_save_node for CX20722; this shouldn't lead to
regression, hopefully
- Kabylake HDMI/DP codec support
- Quirks for Lenovo E50-80, Dell Latitude E-series, and other Dell
machines
- A few code refactoring
FireWire:
- Lots of code cleanup and refactoring
- Integrate the support of SCS.1x devices into snd-oxfw driver;
snd-scs1x driver is obsoleted
USB-audio:
- Fix possible NULL dereference at disconnection
- A regression fix for Native Instruments devices
Misc:
- A few code cleanups of fm801 driver"

mm: support madvise(MADV_FREE)
Linux doesn't have an ability to free pages lazy while other OS already have been supported that named by madvise(MADV_FREE). The gain is clear that kernel can discard freed pages rather than swapping out or OOM if memory pressure happens. Without memory pressure, freed pages would be reused by userspace without another additional overhead(ex, page fault + allocation + zeroing). Jason Evans said: : Facebook has been using MAP_UNINITIALIZED : (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/18/308) in some of its applications for : several years, but there are operational costs to maintaining this : out-of-tree in our kernel and in jemalloc, and we are anxious to retire it : in favor of MADV_FREE. When we first enabled MAP_UNINITIALIZED it : increased throughput for much of our workload by ~5%, and although the : benefit has decreased using newer hardware and kernels, there is still : enough benefit that we cannot reasonably retire it without a replacement. : : Aside from Facebook operations, there are numerous broadly used : applications that would benefit from MADV_FREE. The ones that immediately : come to mind are redis, varnish, and MariaDB. I don't have much insight : into Android internals and development process, but I would hope to see : MADV_FREE support eventually end up there as well to benefit applications : linked with the integrated jemalloc. : : jemalloc will use MADV_FREE once it becomes available in the Linux kernel. : In fact, jemalloc already uses MADV_FREE or equivalent everywhere it's : available: *BSD, OS X, Windows, and Solaris -- every platform except Linux : (and AIX, but I'm not sure it even compiles on AIX). The lack of : MADV_FREE on Linux forced me down a long series of increasingly : sophisticated heuristics for madvise() volume reduction, and even so this : remains a common performance issue for people using jemalloc on Linux. : Please integrate MADV_FREE; many people will benefit substantially. How it works: When madvise syscall is called, VM clears dirty bit of ptes of the range. If memory pressure happens, VM checks dirty bit of page table and if it found still "clean", it means it's a "lazyfree pages" so VM could discard the page instead of swapping out. Once there was store operation for the page before VM peek a page to reclaim, dirty bit is set so VM can swap out the page instead of discarding. One thing we should notice is that basically, MADV_FREE relies on dirty bit in page table entry to decide whether VM allows to discard the page or not. IOW, if page table entry includes marked dirty bit, VM shouldn't discard the page. However, as a example, if swap-in by read fault happens, page table entry doesn't have dirty bit so MADV_FREE could discard the page wrongly. For avoiding the problem, MADV_FREE did more checks with PageDirty and PageSwapCache. It worked out because swapped-in page lives on swap cache and since it is evicted from the swap cache, the page has PG_dirty flag. So both page flags check effectively prevent wrong discarding by MADV_FREE. However, a problem in above logic is that swapped-in page has PG_dirty still after they are removed from swap cache so VM cannot consider the page as freeable any more even if madvise_free is called in future. Look at below example for detail. ptr = malloc(); memset(ptr); .. .. .. heavy memory pressure so all of pages are swapped out .. .. var = *ptr; -> a page swapped-in and could be removed from swapcache. Then, page table doesn't mark dirty bit and page descriptor includes PG_dirty .. .. madvise_free(ptr); -> It doesn't clear PG_dirty of the page. .. .. .. .. heavy memory pressure again. .. In this time, VM cannot discard the page because the page .. has *PG_dirty* To solve the problem, this patch clears PG_dirty if only the page is owned exclusively by current process when madvise is called because PG_dirty represents ptes's dirtiness in several processes so we could clear it only if we own it exclusively. Firstly, heavy users would be general allocators(ex, jemalloc, tcmalloc and hope glibc supports it) and jemalloc/tcmalloc already have supported the feature for other OS(ex, FreeBSD) barrios@blaptop:~/benchmark/ebizzy$ lscpu Architecture: x86_64 CPU op-mode(s): 32-bit, 64-bit Byte Order: Little Endian CPU(s): 12 On-line CPU(s) list: 0-11 Thread(s) per core: 1 Core(s) per socket: 1 Socket(s): 12 NUMA node(s): 1 Vendor ID: GenuineIntel CPU family: 6 Model: 2 Stepping: 3 CPU MHz: 3200.185 BogoMIPS: 6400.53 Virtualization: VT-x Hypervisor vendor: KVM Virtualization type: full L1d cache: 32K L1i cache: 32K L2 cache: 4096K NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-11 ebizzy benchmark(./ebizzy -S 10 -n 512) Higher avg is better. vanilla-jemalloc MADV_free-jemalloc 1 thread records: 10 records: 10 avg: 2961.90 avg: 12069.70 std: 71.96(2.43%) std: 186.68(1.55%) max: 3070.00 max: 12385.00 min: 2796.00 min: 11746.00 2 thread records: 10 records: 10 avg: 5020.00 avg: 17827.00 std: 264.87(5.28%) std: 358.52(2.01%) max: 5244.00 max: 18760.00 min: 4251.00 min: 17382.00 4 thread records: 10 records: 10 avg: 8988.80 avg: 27930.80 std: 1175.33(13.08%) std: 3317.33(11.88%) max: 9508.00 max: 30879.00 min: 5477.00 min: 21024.00 8 thread records: 10 records: 10 avg: 13036.50 avg: 33739.40 std: 170.67(1.31%) std: 5146.22(15.25%) max: 13371.00 max: 40572.00 min: 12785.00 min: 24088.00 16 thread records: 10 records: 10 avg: 11092.40 avg: 31424.20 std: 710.60(6.41%) std: 3763.89(11.98%) max: 12446.00 max: 36635.00 min: 9949.00 min: 25669.00 32 thread records: 10 records: 10 avg: 11067.00 avg: 34495.80 std: 971.06(8.77%) std: 2721.36(7.89%) max: 12010.00 max: 38598.00 min: 9002.00 min: 30636.00 In summary, MADV_FREE is about much faster than MADV_DONTNEED.

Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"The bulk of this has appeared in -next and independently received a
build success notification from the kbuild robot. The 'for-4.5/block-
dax' topic branch was rebased over the weekend to drop the "block
device end-of-life" rework that Al would like to see re-implemented
with a notifier, and to address bug reports against the badblocks
integration.
There is pending feedback against "libnvdimm: Add a poison list and
export badblocks" received last week. Linda identified some localized
fixups that we will handle incrementally.
Summary:
- Media error handling: The 'badblocks' implementation that
originated in md-raid is up-levelled to a generic capability of a
block device. This initial implementation is limited to being
consulted in the pmem block-i/o path. Later, 'badblocks' will be
consulted when creating dax mappings.
- Raw block device dax: For virtualization and other cases that want
large contiguous mappings of persistent memory, add the capability
to dax-mmap a block device directly.
- Increased /dev/mem restrictions: Add an option to treat all
io-memory as IORESOURCE_EXCLUSIVE, i.e. disable /dev/mem access
while a driver is actively using an address range. This behavior
is controlled via the new CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM option and can be
overridden by the existing "iomem=relaxed" kernel command line
option.
- Miscellaneous fixes include a 'pfn'-device huge page alignment fix,
block device shutdown crash fix, and other small libnvdimm fixes"
* tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (32 commits)

Merge tag 'media/v4.5-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media
Pull second batch of media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab: "This is the second part of the media patches. It contains the media controller next generation patches, with is the result of one year of discussions and development. It also contains patches to enable media controller support at the DVB subsystem. The goal is to improve the media controller to allow proper support for other types of Video4Linux devices (radio and TV ones) and to extend the media controller functionality to allow it to be used by other subsystems like DVB, ALSA and IIO. In order to use the new functionality, a new ioctl is needed (MEDIA_IOC_G_TOPOLOGY). As we're still discussing how to pack the struct fields of this ioctl in order to avoid compat32 issues, I decided to add a patch at the end of this series commenting out the new ioctl, in order to postpone the addition of the new ioctl to the next Kernel version (4.6). With that, no userspace visible changes should happen at the media controller API, as the existing ioctls are untouched. Yet, it helps DVB, ALSA and IIO developers to develop and test the patches adding media controller support there, as the core will contain all required internal changes to allow adding support for devices that belong to those subsystems" * tag 'media/v4.5-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media: (177 commits) [media] Postpone the addition of MEDIA_IOC_G_TOPOLOGY [media] mxl111sf: Add a tuner entity [media] dvbdev: create links on devices with multiple frontends [media] media-entitiy: add a function to create multiple links [media] dvb-usb-v2: postpone removal of media_device [media] dvbdev: Add RF connector if needed [media] dvbdev: remove two dead functions if !CONFIG_MEDIA_CONTROLLER_DVB [media] call media_device_init() before registering the V4L2 device [media] uapi/media.h: Use u32 for the number of graph objects [media] media-entity: don't sleep at media_device_register_entity() [media] media-entity: increase max number of PADs [media] media-entity.h: document the remaining functions [media] media-device.h: use just one u32 counter for object ID [media] media-entity.h fix documentation for several parameters [media] DocBook: document media_entity_graph_walk_cleanup() [media] move documentation to the header files [media] media: Move MEDIA_ENTITY_MAX_PADS from media-entity.h to media-entity.c [media] media: Remove pre-allocated entity enumeration bitmap [media] staging: v4l: davinci_vpbe: Use the new media graph walk interface [media] staging: v4l: omap4iss: Use the new media graph walk interface ... |
