Reorganize the power management part of admin-guide by adding a
description of major power management strategies supported by the
kernel (system-wide and working-state power management) to it and
dividing the rest of the material into the system-wide PM and
working-state PM chapters.

On top of that, add a description of system sleep states to the
system-wide PM chapter.

Pull IOMMU fix from Joerg Roedel:
 "Another fix, this time in common IOMMU sysfs code.

  In the conversion from the old iommu sysfs-code to the
  iommu_device_register interface, I missed to update the release path
  for the struct device associated with an IOMMU. It freed the 'struct
  device', which was a pointer before, but is now embedded in another
  struct.

  Freeing from the middle of allocated memory had all kinds of nasty
  side effects when an IOMMU was unplugged. Unfortunatly nobody
  unplugged and IOMMU until now, so this was not discovered earlier. The
  fix is to make the 'struct device' a pointer again"

The "lock_page_killable()" function waits for exclusive access to the
page lock bit using the WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE bit in the waitqueue entry
set.

That means that if it gets woken up, other waiters may have been
skipped.

That, in turn, means that if it sees the page being unlocked, it *must*
take that lock and return success, even if a lethal signal is also
pending.

So instead of checking for lethal signals first, we need to check for
them after we've checked the actual bit that we were waiting for.  Even
if that might then delay the killing of the process.

This matches the order of the old "wait_on_bit_lock()" infrastructure
that the page locking used to use (and is still used in a few other
areas).

Note that if we still return an error after having unsuccessfully tried
to acquire the page lock, that is ok: that means that some other thread
was able to get ahead of us and lock the page, and when that other
thread then unlocks the page, the wakeup event will be repeated.  So any
other pending waiters will now get properly woken up.

Tim Chen and Kan Liang have been battling a customer load that shows
extremely long page wakeup lists.  The cause seems to be constant NUMA
migration of a hot page that is shared across a lot of threads, but the
actual root cause for the exact behavior has not been found.

Tim has a patch that batches the wait list traversal at wakeup time, so
that we at least don't get long uninterruptible cases where we traverse
and wake up thousands of processes and get nasty latency spikes.  That
is likely 4.14 material, but we're still discussing the page waitqueue
specific parts of it.

In the meantime, I've tried to look at making the page wait queues less
expensive, and failing miserably.  If you have thousands of threads
waiting for the same page, it will be painful.  We'll need to try to
figure out the NUMA balancing issue some day, in addition to avoiding
the excessive spinlock hold times.

That said, having tried to rewrite the page wait queues, I can at least
fix up some of the braindamage in the current situation. In particular:

 (a) we don't want to continue walking the page wait list if the bit
     we're waiting for already got set again (which seems to be one of
     the patterns of the bad load).  That makes no progress and just
     causes pointless cache pollution chasing the pointers.

 (b) we don't want to put the non-locking waiters always on the front of
     the queue, and the locking waiters always on the back.  Not only is
     that unfair, it means that we wake up thousands of reading threads
     that will just end up being blocked by the writer later anyway.

Also add a comment about the layout of 'struct wait_page_key' - there is
an external user of it in the cachefiles code that means that it has to
match the layout of 'struct wait_bit_key' in the two first members.  It
so happens to match, because 'struct page *' and 'unsigned long *' end
up having the same values simply because the page flags are the first
member in struct page.

We have a MAX_LFS_FILESIZE macro that is meant to be filled in by
filesystems (and other IO targets) that know they are 64-bit clean and
don't have any 32-bit limits in their IO path.

It turns out that our 32-bit value for that limit was bogus.  On 32-bit,
the VM layer is limited by the page cache to only 32-bit index values,
but our logic for that was confusing and actually wrong.  We used to
define that value to

	(((loff_t)PAGE_SIZE << (BITS_PER_LONG-1))-1)

which is actually odd in several ways: it limits the index to 31 bits,
and then it limits files so that they can't have data in that last byte
of a page that has the highest 31-bit index (ie page index 0x7fffffff).

Neither of those limitations make sense.  The index is actually the full
32 bit unsigned value, and we can use that whole full page.  So the
maximum size of the file would logically be "PAGE_SIZE << BITS_PER_LONG".

However, we do wan tto avoid the maximum index, because we have code
that iterates over the page indexes, and we don't want that code to
overflow.  So the maximum size of a file on a 32-bit host should
actually be one page less than the full 32-bit index.

So the actual limit is ULONG_MAX << PAGE_SHIFT.  That means that we will
not actually be using the page of that last index (ULONG_MAX), but we
can grow a file up to that limit.

The wrong value of MAX_LFS_FILESIZE actually caused problems for Doug
Nazar, who was still using a 32-bit host, but with a 9.7TB 2 x RAID5
volume.  It turns out that our old MAX_LFS_FILESIZE was 8TiB (well, one
byte less), but the actual true VM limit is one page less than 16TiB.

This was invisible until commit c2a9737f ("vfs,mm: fix a dead loop
in truncate_inode_pages_range()"), which started applying that
MAX_LFS_FILESIZE limit to block devices too.

NOTE! On 64-bit, the page index isn't a limiter at all, and the limit is
actually just the offset type itself (loff_t), which is signed.  But for
clarity, on 64-bit, just use the maximum signed value, and don't make
people have to count the number of 'f' characters in the hex constant.

So just use LLONG_MAX for the 64-bit case.  That was what the value had
been before too, just written out as a hex constant.

Commit 7c051267 ("mm, fork: make dup_mmap wait for mmap_sem for
write killable") made it possible to kill a forking task while it is
waiting to acquire its ->mmap_sem for write, in dup_mmap().

However, it was overlooked that this introduced an new error path before
a reference is taken on the mm_struct's ->exe_file.  Since the
->exe_file of the new mm_struct was already set to the old ->exe_file by
the memcpy() in dup_mm(), it was possible for the mmput() in the error
path of dup_mm() to drop a reference to ->exe_file which was never
taken.

This caused the struct file to later be freed prematurely.

Fix it by updating mm_init() to NULL out the ->exe_file, in the same
place it clears other things like the list of mmaps.

This bug was found by syzkaller.  It can be reproduced using the
following C program:

    #define _GNU_SOURCE
    #include <pthread.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>
    #include <sys/mman.h>
    #include <sys/syscall.h>
    #include <sys/wait.h>
    #include <unistd.h>

    static void *mmap_thread(void *_arg)
    {
        for (;;) {
            mmap(NULL, 0x1000000, PROT_READ,
                 MAP_POPULATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0);
        }
    }

    static void *fork_thread(void *_arg)
    {
        usleep(rand() % 10000);
        fork();
    }

    int main(void)
    {
        fork();
        fork();
        fork();
        for (;;) {
            if (fork() == 0) {
                pthread_t t;

                pthread_create(&t, NULL, mmap_thread, NULL);
                pthread_create(&t, NULL, fork_thread, NULL);
                usleep(rand() % 10000);
                syscall(__NR_exit_group, 0);
            }
            wait(NULL);
        }
    }

No special kernel config options are needed.  It usually causes a NULL
pointer dereference in __remove_shared_vm_struct() during exit, or in
dup_mmap() (which is usually inlined into copy_process()) during fork.
Both are due to a vm_area_struct's ->vm_file being used after it's
already been freed.

If madvise(..., MADV_FREE) split a transparent hugepage, it called
put_page() before unlock_page().

This was wrong because put_page() can free the page, e.g. if a
concurrent madvise(..., MADV_DONTNEED) has removed it from the memory
mapping. put_page() then rightfully complained about freeing a locked
page.

Fix this by moving the unlock_page() before put_page().

In DAX there are two separate places where the 2MiB range of a PMD is
defined.

The first is in the page tables, where a PMD mapping inserted for a
given address spans from (vmf->address & PMD_MASK) to ((vmf->address &
PMD_MASK) + PMD_SIZE - 1).  That is, from the 2MiB boundary below the
address to the 2MiB boundary above the address.

So, for example, a fault at address 3MiB (0x30 0000) falls within the
PMD that ranges from 2MiB (0x20 0000) to 4MiB (0x40 0000).

The second PMD range is in the mapping->page_tree, where a given file
offset is covered by a radix tree entry that spans from one 2MiB aligned
file offset to another 2MiB aligned file offset.

So, for example, the file offset for 3MiB (pgoff 768) falls within the
PMD range for the order 9 radix tree entry that ranges from 2MiB (pgoff
512) to 4MiB (pgoff 1024).

This system works so long as the addresses and file offsets for a given
mapping both have the same offsets relative to the start of each PMD.

Consider the case where the starting address for a given file isn't 2MiB
aligned - say our faulting address is 3 MiB (0x30 0000), but that
corresponds to the beginning of our file (pgoff 0).  Now all the PMDs in
the mapping are misaligned so that the 2MiB range defined in the page
tables never matches up with the 2MiB range defined in the radix tree.

The current code notices this case for DAX faults to storage with the
following test in dax_pmd_insert_mapping():

	if (pfn_t_to_pfn(pfn) & PG_PMD_COLOUR)
		goto unlock_fallback;

This test makes sure that the pfn we get from the driver is 2MiB
aligned, and relies on the assumption that the 2MiB alignment of the pfn
we get back from the driver matches the 2MiB alignment of the faulting
address.

However, faults to holes were not checked and we could hit the problem
described above.

This was reported in response to the NVML nvml/src/test/pmempool_sync
TEST5:

	$ cd nvml/src/test/pmempool_sync
	$ make TEST5

You can grab NVML here:

	https://github.com/pmem/nvml/

The dmesg warning you see when you hit this error is:

  WARNING: CPU: 13 PID: 2900 at fs/dax.c:641 dax_insert_mapping_entry+0x2df/0x310

Where we notice in dax_insert_mapping_entry() that the radix tree entry
we are about to replace doesn't match the locked entry that we had
previously inserted into the tree.  This happens because the initial
insertion was done in grab_mapping_entry() using a pgoff calculated from
the faulting address (vmf->address), and the replacement in
dax_pmd_load_hole() => dax_insert_mapping_entry() is done using
vmf->pgoff.

In our failure case those two page offsets (one calculated from
vmf->address, one using vmf->pgoff) point to different order 9 radix
tree entries.

This failure case can result in a deadlock because the radix tree unlock
also happens on the pgoff calculated from vmf->address.  This means that
the locked radix tree entry that we swapped in to the tree in
dax_insert_mapping_entry() using vmf->pgoff is never unlocked, so all
future faults to that 2MiB range will block forever.

Fix this by validating that the faulting address's PMD offset matches
the PMD offset from the start of the file.  This check is done at the
very beginning of the fault and covers faults that would have mapped to
storage as well as faults to holes.  I left the COLOUR check in
dax_pmd_insert_mapping() in place in case we ever hit the insanity
condition where the alignment of the pfn we get from the driver doesn't
match the alignment of the userspace address.

/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled controls if we want
to allocate huge pages when allocate pages for private in-kernel shmem
mount.

Unfortunately, as Dan noticed, I've screwed it up and the only way to
make kernel allocate huge page for the mount is to use "force" there.
All other values will be effectively ignored.

There is a problem that when counting the pages for creating the
hibernation snapshot will take significant amount of time, especially on
system with large memory.  Since the counting job is performed with irq
disabled, this might lead to NMI lockup.  The following warning were

It has taken nearly 20 seconds(2.10GHz CPU) thus the NMI lockup was
triggered.  In case the timeout of the NMI watch dog has been set to 1
second, a safe interval should be 6590003/20 = 320k pages in theory.
However there might also be some platforms running at a lower frequency,
so feed the watchdog every 100k pages.

The virtio_blk capacity config field is in 512-byte sector units
regardless of logical_block_size as per the VIRTIO specification.
Therefore the message should read:

  virtio_blk virtio0: new size: 524288 4096-byte logical blocks (2.15 GB/2.0 GiB)

Note that this only affects the printed message.  Thankfully the actual

capacity in sectors.

Nixiaoming pointed out that there is a memory leak in
kvm_vm_ioctl_create_spapr_tce() if the call to anon_inode_getfd()
fails; the memory allocated for the kvmppc_spapr_tce_table struct
is not freed, and nor are the pages allocated for the iommu
tables.  In addition, we have already incremented the process's
count of locked memory pages, and this doesn't get restored on
error.

David Hildenbrand pointed out that there is a race in that the
function checks early on that there is not already an entry in the
stt->iommu_tables list with the same LIOBN, but an entry with the
same LIOBN could get added between then and when the new entry is
added to the list.

This fixes all three problems.  To simplify things, we now call
anon_inode_getfd() before placing the new entry in the list.  The
check for an existing entry is done while holding the kvm->lock
mutex, immediately before adding the new entry to the list.
Finally, on failure we now call kvmppc_account_memlimit to
decrement the process's count of locked memory pages.

Regardless of which events form a group, it does not make sense for the
events to target different tasks and/or CPUs, as this leaves the group
inconsistent and impossible to schedule. The core perf code assumes that
these are consistent across (successfully intialised) groups.

Core perf code only verifies this when moving SW events into a HW
context. Thus, we can violate this requirement for pure SW groups and
pure HW groups, unless the relevant PMU driver happens to perform this
verification itself. These mismatched groups subsequently wreak havoc
elsewhere.

For example, we handle watchpoints as SW events, and reserve watchpoint
HW on a per-CPU basis at pmu::event_init() time to ensure that any event
that is initialised is guaranteed to have a slot at pmu::add() time.
However, the core code only checks the group leader's cpu filter (via
event_filter_match()), and can thus install follower events onto CPUs
violating thier (mismatched) CPU filters, potentially installing them
into a CPU without sufficient reserved slots.

This can be triggered with the below test case, resulting in warnings
from arch backends.

The following commit:

  39a0526f ("x86/mm: Factor out LDT init from context init")

renamed init_new_context() to init_new_context_ldt() and added a new
init_new_context() which calls init_new_context_ldt().  However, the
error code of init_new_context_ldt() was ignored.  Consequently, if a
memory allocation in alloc_ldt_struct() failed during a fork(), the
->context.ldt of the new task remained the same as that of the old task
(due to the memcpy() in dup_mm()).  ldt_struct's are not intended to be
shared, so a use-after-free occurred after one task exited.

Fix the bug by making init_new_context() pass through the error code of
init_new_context_ldt().

This bug was found by syzkaller, which encountered the following splat:

Here is a C reproducer:

    #include <asm/ldt.h>
    #include <pthread.h>
    #include <signal.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>
    #include <sys/syscall.h>
    #include <sys/wait.h>
    #include <unistd.h>

    static void *fork_thread(void *_arg)
    {
        fork();
    }

    int main(void)
    {
        struct user_desc desc = { .entry_number = 8191 };

        syscall(__NR_modify_ldt, 1, &desc, sizeof(desc));

        for (;;) {
            if (fork() == 0) {
                pthread_t t;

                srand(getpid());
                pthread_create(&t, NULL, fork_thread, NULL);
                usleep(rand() % 10000);
                syscall(__NR_exit_group, 0);
            }
            wait(NULL);
        }
    }

Note: the reproducer takes advantage of the fact that alloc_ldt_struct()
may use vmalloc() to allocate a large ->entries array, and after
commit:

  5d17a73a ("vmalloc: back off when the current task is killed")

it is possible for userspace to fail a task's vmalloc() by
sending a fatal signal, e.g. via exit_group().  It would be more
difficult to reproduce this bug on kernels without that commit.

This bug only affected kernels with CONFIG_MODIFY_LDT_SYSCALL=y.
