4441fca0a2 lib: test module for find_*_bit() functions
find_bit functions are widely used in the kernel, including hot paths.
This module tests performance of those functions in 2 typical scenarios:
randomly filled bitmap with relatively equal distribution of set and
cleared bits, and sparse bitmap which has 1 set bit for 500 cleared
bits.

On ThunderX machine:

	 Start testing find_bit() with random-filled bitmap
	find_next_bit:          240043 cycles,  164062 iterations
	find_next_zero_bit:     312848 cycles,  163619 iterations
	find_last_bit:          193748 cycles,  164062 iterations
	find_first_bit:      177720874 cycles,  164062 iterations

	 Start testing find_bit() with sparse bitmap
	find_next_bit:            3633 cycles,     656 iterations
	find_next_zero_bit:     620399 cycles,  327025 iterations
	find_last_bit:            3038 cycles,     656 iterations
	find_first_bit:         691407 cycles,     656 iterations

b293fca43b Merge tag 'riscv-for-linus-4.15-arch-v9-premerge' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/palmer/linux
Pull RISC-V architecture support from Palmer Dabbelt:
 "This contains the core RISC-V Linux port, which has been through nine
  rounds of review on various mailing lists. The port is not complete:
  there's some cleanup patches moving through the review process, a
  whole bunch of drivers that need some work, and a lot of feature
  additions that will be needed.

  The patches contained in this tag have been through nine rounds of
  review on the various mailing lists. I have some outstanding cleanup
  patches, but since there's been so much review on these patches I
  thought it would be best to submit them as-is and then submit explicit
  cleanup patches so everyone can review them. This first patch set is
  big enough that it's a bit of a pain to constantly rewrite, and it's
  caused a few headaches with various contributors.

  The port is definately a work in progress. While what's there builds
  and boots with 4.14, it's a bit hard to actually see anything happen
  because there are no device drivers yet. I maintain a staging branch
  that contains all the device drivers and cleanup that actually works,
  but those patches won't all be ready for a while. I'd like to get what
  we currently have into your tree so everyone can start working from a
  single base -- of particular importance is allowing the glibc
  upstreaming process to proceed so we can sort out any possibly
  lingering user-visible ABI problems we might have.

  Copied below is the ChangeLog that contains the history of this patch
  set:

   (v9) As per suggestions on our v8 patch set, I've split the core
        architecture code out from our drivers and would like to submit
        this patch set to be included into linux-next, with the goal
        being to be merged in during the next merge window. This patch
        set is based on 4.14-rc2, but if it's better to have it based on
        something else then I can change it around.

        This patch set contains just the core arch code for RISC-V, so
        while it builds an nominally boots, you can't print or take an
        interrupt so it's not that useful. If you're looking to actually
        boot a system it would probably be better to use the full patch
        set listed below.

        We've collected a handful of tags from reviewers, and the
        remainder of the patch set only got minimal feedback last time.
        Here's what changed:

         - We now use the device tree to initialize the timer driver so
           it's less tighly coupled with the arch port.

         - I cleaned up the defconfigs -- there's actually now just one,
           and it's empty. For now I think we're OK with what the kernel
           sets as defaults, but I anticipate we'll begin to expand this
           as people start to use the port more.

         - The VDSO symbols version is sane.

         - We WFI while spinning in the boot loop.

         - A handful of comments have been added.

        While there are still a handful of FIXMEs in this patch set,
        we've started to get enough interest from various users and
        contributors that maintaining an out of tree patch set is
        starting to become a big burden. Hopefully the patches are good
        enough to merge now, which will at least get everyone working in
        a more reasonable manner as we clean up the remaining issues.

   (v8) I know it may not be the ideal time to submit a patch set right
        now, as it's the middle of the merge window, but things have
        calmed down quite a bit in the last month so I thought it would
        be good to get everyone on the same page. There's been a handful
        of changes since the last patch set, but most of them are fairly
        minor:

         - We changed PAGE_OFFSET to allowing mapping more physical
           memory on 64-bit systems. This is user configurable, as it
           triggers a different code model that generates slightly less
           efficient code.

         - The device tree binding documentation is back, I'd managed to
           lose it at some point.

         - We now pass the atomic64 test suite

         - The SBI timer driver has been refactored.

   (v7) It's been a while since my last patch set, but the changes han
        been fairly minimal:

         - The PCI cleanup patches have been dropped, we'll do them as a
           separate patch set later.

         - We've the Kconfig entries from CONFIG_ISA_* to
           CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_*, to make grep easier.

         - There have been a handful of memory model related tweaks in
           I/O land, particularly relating the PCI and the upcoming
           platform specification. There are significant comments in the
           relevant files. This is still a WIP, but I think we're close
           to getting as good as we're going to get until we end up with
           some more specifications.

   (v6) As it's been only a day since the v5 patch set, the changes are
        pretty minimal:

         - The patch set is now based on linux-next/master, which I
           believe is a better base now that we're getting closer to
           upstream.

         - EARLY_PRINTK is no longer an option. Since the SBI console is
           reasonable, there's no penalty to enabling it (and thus no
           benefit to disabling it).

         - The mmap syscalls were refactored a bit.

   (v5) Things have really started to calm down, so this is fairly
        similar to the v4 patch set. The most interesting changes
        include:

         - We've moved back to a single patch set.

         - SMP support has been fixed, I was accidentally running on a
           non-SMP configuration. There were various mistakes all over
           the tree as a result of this.

         - The cmpxchg syscalls have been removed, as they were deemed a
           bad idea. As a result, RISC-V Linux systems mandate the A
           extension. The corresponding Kconfig entry to enable builds
           on non-A systems has been removed.

         - A few more atomic fixes: mostly fence changes, but those
           resulted in a handful of additional macros that were no
           longer necessary.

         - riscv_early_sie has been removed.

   (v4) There have only been a few changes since the v3 patch set:

         - The cmpxchg64 syscall is no longer enabled on 32-bit systems.
           It's not possible to provide this on SMP systems, and it's
           not necessary as glibc knows not to call it.

         - We provide a ELF_HWCAP so users can determine the ISA of the
           machine the kernel is running on.

         - The multi-line comments are in a better form.

         - There were a handful of headers that could be replaced with
           the asm-generic versions, and a few unnecessary definitions.

         - We no longer use printk, but instead use pr_*.

         - A few Kconfig and defconfig entries have been cleaned up.

   (v3) A highlight of the changes since the v2 patch set includes:

         - We've split out all our drivers into separate patch sets,
           which I've already sent out to the relevant maintainers. I
           haven't included those patches in this patch set, but some of
           them are necessary to build our port.

         - The patch set is now split up differently: rather than being
           split per directory it is split per topic. Hopefully this
           will make it easier to review the port on the mailing list.
           The split is a bit rough, so you probably still want to look
           at the patch set as a whole.

         - atomic.h has been completely rewritten and is hopefully now
           correct. I've attempted to sanitize the various other memory
           model related code as well, and I think it should all be sane
           now aside from a handful of FIXMEs commented in the code.

         - We've changed the cmpexchg syscall to always exist and to not
           be multiplexed. There is also a VDSO entry for compare and
           exchange, which allows kernels with the A extension to
           execute user code without the A extension reasonably fast.

         - Our user-visible register state now contains enough space for
           the Q extension for 128-bit floating point, as well as a few
           words to allow extensibility to future ISA extensions like
           the eventual V extension for vectors.

         - A handful of driver cleanups, but these have been split into
           separate patch sets now so I won't duplicate them here.

   (v2) A highlight of the changes since the v1 patch set includes:

         - We've split out our drivers into the right places, which
           means now there's a lot more patches. I'll be submitting
           these patches to various subsystem maintainers and including
           them in any future RISC-V patch sets until they've been
           merged.

         - The SBI console driver has been completely rewritten to use
           the HVC helpers and is now significantly smaller.

         - We've begun to use weaker barriers as opposed to just the big
           "fence". There's still some work to do here, specifically:
            - We need fences in the relaxed MMIO functions.
            - The non-relaxed MMIO functions are missing R/W bits on their fences.
            - Many AMOs need the aq and rl bits set.

         - We now have thread_info in task_struct. As a result, sscratch
           now contains TP instead of SP. This was necessary because
           thread_info is no longer on the stack.

         - A few shared routines have been added that we use instead of
           creating another arch copy"

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

b35cd9884f lib: Add shared copies of some GCC library routines
Many ports (m32r, microblaze, mips, parisc, score, and sparc) use
functionally identical copies of various GCC library routine files,
which came up as we were submitting the RISC-V port (which also uses
some of these).

This patch adds a new copy of these library routine files, which are
functionally identical to the various other copies.  These are
availiable via Kconfig as CONFIG_GENERIC_$ROUTINE, which currently isn't
used anywhere.

e7cdb60fd2 Merge branch 'zstd-minimal' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/linux-btrfs
Pull zstd support from Chris Mason:
 "Nick Terrell's patch series to add zstd support to the kernel has been
  floating around for a while. After talking with Dave Sterba, Herbert
  and Phillip, we decided to send the whole thing in as one pull
  request.

  zstd is a big win in speed over zlib and in compression ratio over
  lzo, and the compression team here at FB has gotten great results
  using it in production. Nick will continue to update the kernel side
  with new improvements from the open source zstd userland code.

  Nick has a number of benchmarks for the main zstd code in his lib/zstd
  commit:

      I ran the benchmarks on a Ubuntu 14.04 VM with 2 cores and 4 GiB
      of RAM. The VM is running on a MacBook Pro with a 3.1 GHz Intel
      Core i7 processor, 16 GB of RAM, and a SSD. I benchmarked using
      `silesia.tar` [3], which is 211,988,480 B large. Run the following
      commands for the benchmark:

        sudo modprobe zstd_compress_test
        sudo mknod zstd_compress_test c 245 0
        sudo cp silesia.tar zstd_compress_test

      The time is reported by the time of the userland `cp`.
      The MB/s is computed with

        1,536,217,008 B / time(buffer size, hash)

      which includes the time to copy from userland.
      The Adjusted MB/s is computed with

        1,536,217,088 B / (time(buffer size, hash) - time(buffer size, none)).

      The memory reported is the amount of memory the compressor
      requests.

        | Method   | Size (B) | Time (s) | Ratio | MB/s    | Adj MB/s | Mem (MB) |
        |----------|----------|----------|-------|---------|----------|----------|

73f3d1b48f lib: Add zstd modules
Add zstd compression and decompression kernel modules.
zstd offers a wide varity of compression speed and quality trade-offs.
It can compress at speeds approaching lz4, and quality approaching lzma.
zstd decompressions at speeds more than twice as fast as zlib, and
decompression speed remains roughly the same across all compression levels.

The code was ported from the upstream zstd source repository. The
`linux/zstd.h` header was modified to match linux kernel style.
The cross-platform and allocation code was stripped out. Instead zstd
requires the caller to pass a preallocated workspace. The source files
were clang-formatted [1] to match the Linux Kernel style as much as
possible. Otherwise, the code was unmodified. We would like to avoid
as much further manual modification to the source code as possible, so it
will be easier to keep the kernel zstd up to date.

I benchmarked zstd compression as a special character device. I ran zstd
and zlib compression at several levels, as well as performing no
compression, which measure the time spent copying the data to kernel space.
Data is passed to the compresser 4096 B at a time. The benchmark file is
located in the upstream zstd source repository under
`contrib/linux-kernel/zstd_compress_test.c` [2].

I ran the benchmarks on a Ubuntu 14.04 VM with 2 cores and 4 GiB of RAM.
The VM is running on a MacBook Pro with a 3.1 GHz Intel Core i7 processor,
16 GB of RAM, and a SSD. I benchmarked using `silesia.tar` [3], which is
211,988,480 B large. Run the following commands for the benchmark:

    sudo modprobe zstd_compress_test
    sudo mknod zstd_compress_test c 245 0
    sudo cp silesia.tar zstd_compress_test

The time is reported by the time of the userland `cp`.
The MB/s is computed with

    1,536,217,008 B / time(buffer size, hash)

which includes the time to copy from userland.
The Adjusted MB/s is computed with

    1,536,217,088 B / (time(buffer size, hash) - time(buffer size, none)).

The memory reported is the amount of memory the compressor requests.

5d2405227a lib: Add xxhash module
Adds xxhash kernel module with xxh32 and xxh64 hashes. xxhash is an
extremely fast non-cryptographic hash algorithm for checksumming.
The zstd compression and decompression modules added in the next patch
require xxhash. I extracted it out from zstd since it is useful on its
own. I copied the code from the upstream XXHash source repository and
translated it into kernel style. I ran benchmarks and tests in the kernel
and tests in userland.

I benchmarked xxhash as a special character device. I ran in four modes,
no-op, xxh32, xxh64, and crc32. The no-op mode simply copies the data to
kernel space and ignores it. The xxh32, xxh64, and crc32 modes compute
hashes on the copied data. I also ran it with four different buffer sizes.
The benchmark file is located in the upstream zstd source repository under
`contrib/linux-kernel/xxhash_test.c` [1].

I ran the benchmarks on a Ubuntu 14.04 VM with 2 cores and 4 GiB of RAM.
The VM is running on a MacBook Pro with a 3.1 GHz Intel Core i7 processor,
16 GB of RAM, and a SSD. I benchmarked using the file `filesystem.squashfs`
from `ubuntu-16.10-desktop-amd64.iso`, which is 1,536,217,088 B large.
Run the following commands for the benchmark:

    modprobe xxhash_test
    mknod xxhash_test c 245 0
    time cp filesystem.squashfs xxhash_test

The time is reported by the time of the userland `cp`.
The GB/s is computed with

    1,536,217,008 B / time(buffer size, hash)

which includes the time to copy from userland.
The Normalized GB/s is computed with

    1,536,217,088 B / (time(buffer size, hash) - time(buffer size, none)).

d9c6a72d6f kmod: add test driver to stress test the module loader
This adds a new stress test driver for kmod: the kernel module loader.
The new stress test driver, test_kmod, is only enabled as a module right
now.  It should be possible to load this as built-in and load tests
early (refer to the force_init_test module parameter), however since a
lot of test can get a system out of memory fast we leave this disabled
for now.

Using a system with 1024 MiB of RAM can *easily* get your kernel OOM
fast with this test driver.

The test_kmod driver exposes API knobs for us to fine tune simple
request_module() and get_fs_type() calls.  Since these API calls only
allow each one parameter a test driver for these is rather simple.
Other factors that can help out test driver though are the number of
calls we issue and knowing current limitations of each.  This exposes
configuration as much as possible through userspace to be able to build
tests directly from userspace.

Since it allows multiple misc devices its will eventually (once we add a
knob to let us create new devices at will) also be possible to perform
more tests in parallel, provided you have enough memory.

We only enable tests we know work as of right now.

enabled by default:

 # tools/testing/selftests/kmod/kmod.sh -t 0008
 # tools/testing/selftests/kmod/kmod.sh -t 0009

To be sure to run them as intended please unload both of the modules:

  o test_module
  o xfs

And ensure they are not loaded on your system prior to testing them.  If
you use these paritions for your rootfs you can change the default test
driver used for get_fs_type() by exporting it into your environment.  For
example of other test defaults you can override refer to kmod.sh
allow_user_defaults().

Behind the scenes this is how we fine tune at a test case prior to
hitting a trigger to run it:

cat /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config
echo -n "2" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_test_case
echo -n "ext4" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_test_fs
echo -n "80" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_num_threads
cat /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config
echo -n "1" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/config_num_threads

Finally to trigger:

echo -n "1" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_kmod0/trigger_config

The kmod.sh script uses the above constructs to build different test cases.

A bit of interpretation of the current failures follows, first two
premises:

a) When request_module() is used userspace figures out an optimized
   version of module order for us.  Once it finds the modules it needs, as
   per depmod symbol dep map, it will finit_module() the respective
   modules which are needed for the original request_module() request.

b) We have an optimization in place whereby if a kernel uses
   request_module() on a module already loaded we never bother userspace
   as the module already is loaded.  This is all handled by kernel/kmod.c.

A few things to consider to help identify root causes of issues:

0) kmod 19 has a broken heuristic for modules being assumed to be
   built-in to your kernel and will return 0 even though request_module()
   failed.  Upgrade to a newer version of kmod.

1) A get_fs_type() call for "xfs" will request_module() for "fs-xfs",
   not for "xfs".  The optimization in kernel described in b) fails to
   catch if we have a lot of consecutive get_fs_type() calls.  The reason
   is the optimization in place does not look for aliases.  This means two
   consecutive get_fs_type() calls will bump kmod_concurrent, whereas
   request_module() will not.

This one explanation why test case 0009 fails at least once for
get_fs_type().

2) If a module fails to load --- for whatever reason (kmod_concurrent
   limit reached, file not yet present due to rootfs switch, out of
   memory) we have a period of time during which module request for the
   same name either with request_module() or get_fs_type() will *also*
   fail to load even if the file for the module is ready.

This explains why *multiple* NULLs are possible on test 0009.

3) finit_module() consumes quite a bit of memory.

4) Filesystems typically also have more dependent modules than other
   modules, its important to note though that even though a get_fs_type()
   call does not incur additional kmod_concurrent bumps, since userspace
   loads dependencies it finds it needs via finit_module_fd(), it *will*
   take much more memory to load a module with a lot of dependencies.

Because of 3) and 4) we will easily run into out of memory failures with
certain tests.  For instance test 0006 fails on qemu with 1024 MiB of RAM.
It panics a box after reaping all userspace processes and still not
having enough memory to reap.

9308f2f9e7 test_sysctl: add dedicated proc sysctl test driver
The existing tools/testing/selftests/sysctl/ tests include two test
cases, but these use existing production kernel sysctl interfaces.  We
want to expand test coverage but we can't just be looking for random
safe production values to poke at, that's just insane!

Instead just dedicate a test driver for debugging purposes and port the
existing scripts to use it.  This will make it easier for further tests
to be added.

Subsequent patches will extend our test coverage for sysctl.

The stress test driver uses a new license (GPL on Linux, copyleft-next
outside of Linux).  Linus was fine with this [0] and later due to Ted's
and Alans's request ironed out an "or" language clause to use [1] which
is already present upstream.

Pull Writeback error handling updates from Jeff Layton:
 "This pile represents the bulk of the writeback error handling fixes
  that I have for this cycle. Some of the earlier patches in this pile
  may look trivial but they are prerequisites for later patches in the
  series.

  The aim of this set is to improve how we track and report writeback
  errors to userland. Most applications that care about data integrity
  will periodically call fsync/fdatasync/msync to ensure that their
  writes have made it to the backing store.

  For a very long time, we have tracked writeback errors using two flags
  in the address_space: AS_EIO and AS_ENOSPC. Those flags are set when a
  writeback error occurs (via mapping_set_error) and are cleared as a
  side-effect of filemap_check_errors (as you noted yesterday). This
  model really sucks for userland.

  Only the first task to call fsync (or msync or fdatasync) will see the
  error. Any subsequent task calling fsync on a file will get back 0
  (unless another writeback error occurs in the interim). If I have
  several tasks writing to a file and calling fsync to ensure that their
  writes got stored, then I need to have them coordinate with one
  another. That's difficult enough, but in a world of containerized
  setups that coordination may even not be possible.

  But wait...it gets worse!

  The calls to filemap_check_errors can be buried pretty far down in the
  call stack, and there are internal callers of filemap_write_and_wait
  and the like that also end up clearing those errors. Many of those
  callers ignore the error return from that function or return it to
  userland at nonsensical times (e.g. truncate() or stat()). If I get
  back -EIO on a truncate, there is no reason to think that it was
  because some previous writeback failed, and a subsequent fsync() will
  (incorrectly) return 0.

  This pile aims to do three things:

   1) ensure that when a writeback error occurs that that error will be
      reported to userland on a subsequent fsync/fdatasync/msync call,
      regardless of what internal callers are doing

   2) report writeback errors on all file descriptions that were open at
      the time that the error occurred. This is a user-visible change,
      but I think most applications are written to assume this behavior
      anyway. Those that aren't are unlikely to be hurt by it.

   3) document what filesystems should do when there is a writeback
      error. Today, there is very little consistency between them, and a
      lot of cargo-cult copying. We need to make it very clear what
      filesystems should do in this situation.

  To achieve this, the set adds a new data type (errseq_t) and then
  builds new writeback error tracking infrastructure around that. Once
  all of that is in place, we change the filesystems to use the new
  infrastructure for reporting wb errors to userland.

  Note that this is just the initial foray into cleaning up this mess.
  There is a lot of work remaining here:

   1) convert the rest of the filesystems in a similar fashion. Once the
      initial set is in, then I think most other fs' will be fairly
      simple to convert. Hopefully most of those can in via individual
      filesystem trees.

   2) convert internal waiters on writeback to use errseq_t for
      detecting errors instead of relying on the AS_* flags. I have some
      draft patches for this for ext4, but they are not quite ready for
      prime time yet.

  This was a discussion topic this year at LSF/MM too. If you're
  interested in the gory details, LWN has some good articles about this:

84cbadadc6 lib: add errseq_t type and infrastructure for handling it
An errseq_t is a way of recording errors in one place, and allowing any
number of "subscribers" to tell whether an error has been set again
since a previous time.

It's implemented as an unsigned 32-bit value that is managed with atomic
operations. The low order bits are designated to hold an error code
(max size of MAX_ERRNO). The upper bits are used as a counter.

The API works with consumers sampling an errseq_t value at a particular
point in time. Later, that value can be used to tell whether new errors
have been set since that time.

Note that there is a 1 in 512k risk of collisions here if new errors
are being recorded frequently, since we have so few bits to use as a
counter. To mitigate this, one bit is used as a flag to tell whether the
value has been sampled since a new value was recorded. That allows
us to avoid bumping the counter if no one has sampled it since it
was last bumped.

Later patches will build on this infrastructure to change how writeback
errors are tracked in the kernel.

Willy goes on to expand a bit on the IDR rewrite rationale:
 "The radix tree and the IDR use very similar data structures.

  Merging the two codebases lets us share the memory allocation pools,
  and results in a net deletion of 500 lines of code. It also opens up
  the possibility of exposing more of the features of the radix tree to
  users of the IDR (and I have some interesting patches along those

  It also shrinks the size of the 'struct idr' from 40 bytes to 24 which
