When CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_HOTPLUG_CPU0 is enabled, the socket containing the boot cpu can be replaced. During the hot add event, the message NMI watchdog: enabled on all CPUs, permanently consumes one hw-PMU counter. is output implying that the NMI watchdog was disabled at some point. This is not the case and the message has caused confusion for users of systems that support the removal of the boot cpu socket. The watchdog code is coded to assume that cpu 0 is always the first cpu to initialize the watchdog, and the last to stop its watchdog thread. That is not the case for initializing if cpu 0 has been removed and added. The removal case has never been correct because the smpboot code will remove the watchdog threads starting with the lowest cpu number. This patch adds watchdog_cpus to track the number of cpus with active NMI watchdog threads so that the first and last thread can be used to set and clear the value of firstcpu_err. firstcpu_err is set when the first watchdog thread is enabled, and cleared when the last watchdog thread is disabled.

Commit 743b5f14 ("ocfs2: take inode lock in ocfs2_iop_set/get_acl()") results in a deadlock, as the author "Tariq Saeed" realized shortly after the patch was merged. The discussion happened here https://oss.oracle.com/pipermail/ocfs2-devel/2015-September/011085.html The reason why taking cluster inode lock at vfs entry points opens up a self deadlock window, is explained in the previous patch of this series. So far, we have seen two different code paths that have this issue. 1. do_sys_open may_open inode_permission ocfs2_permission ocfs2_inode_lock() <=== take PR generic_permission get_acl ocfs2_iop_get_acl ocfs2_inode_lock() <=== take PR 2. fchmod|fchmodat chmod_common notify_change ocfs2_setattr <=== take EX posix_acl_chmod get_acl ocfs2_iop_get_acl <=== take PR ocfs2_iop_set_acl <=== take EX Fixes them by adding the tracking logic (in the previous patch) for these funcs above, ocfs2_permission(), ocfs2_iop_[set|get]_acl(), ocfs2_setattr().

We are in the situation that we have to avoid recursive cluster locking, but there is no way to check if a cluster lock has been taken by a precess already. Mostly, we can avoid recursive locking by writing code carefully. However, we found that it's very hard to handle the routines that are invoked directly by vfs code. For instance: const struct inode_operations ocfs2_file_iops = { .permission = ocfs2_permission, .get_acl = ocfs2_iop_get_acl, .set_acl = ocfs2_iop_set_acl, }; Both ocfs2_permission() and ocfs2_iop_get_acl() call ocfs2_inode_lock(PR): do_sys_open may_open inode_permission ocfs2_permission ocfs2_inode_lock() <=== first time generic_permission get_acl ocfs2_iop_get_acl ocfs2_inode_lock() <=== recursive one A deadlock will occur if a remote EX request comes in between two of ocfs2_inode_lock(). Briefly describe how the deadlock is formed: On one hand, OCFS2_LOCK_BLOCKED flag of this lockres is set in BAST(ocfs2_generic_handle_bast) when downconvert is started on behalf of the remote EX lock request. Another hand, the recursive cluster lock (the second one) will be blocked in in __ocfs2_cluster_lock() because of OCFS2_LOCK_BLOCKED. But, the downconvert never complete, why? because there is no chance for the first cluster lock on this node to be unlocked - we block ourselves in the code path. The idea to fix this issue is mostly taken from gfs2 code. 1. introduce a new field: struct ocfs2_lock_res.l_holders, to keep track of the processes' pid who has taken the cluster lock of this lock resource; 2. introduce a new flag for ocfs2_inode_lock_full: OCFS2_META_LOCK_GETBH; it means just getting back disk inode bh for us if we've got cluster lock. 3. export a helper: ocfs2_is_locked_by_me() is used to check if we have got the cluster lock in the upper code path. The tracking logic should be used by some of the ocfs2 vfs's callbacks, to solve the recursive locking issue cuased by the fact that vfs routines can call into each other. The performance penalty of processing the holder list should only be seen at a few cases where the tracking logic is used, such as get/set acl. You may ask what if the first time we got a PR lock, and the second time we want a EX lock? fortunately, this case never happens in the real world, as far as I can see, including permission check, (get|set)_(acl|attr), and the gfs2 code also do so.

Currently the tools/vm Makefile has a rather arbitrary implicit build rule; page-types is the first value in TARGETS so lets just build that one! Additionally there is no install rule and this is needed for make -C tools vm_install to work properly. Provide a more sensible implicit build rule and a new install rule. Note that the variables names used by the install rule (DESTDIR and sbindir) are copied from prior-art in tools/power/cpupower.

Instead of passing in multiple parameters in the pmd_fault() handler, a vmf can be passed in just like a fault() handler. This will simplify code and remove the need for the actual pmd fault handlers to allocate a vmf. Related functions are also modified to do the same.

Tracepoints are the standard way to capture debugging and tracing information in many parts of the kernel, including the XFS and ext4 filesystems. Create a tracepoint header for FS DAX and add the first DAX tracepoints to the PMD fault handler. This allows the tracing for DAX to be done in the same way as the filesystem tracing so that developers can look at them together and get a coherent idea of what the system is doing. I added both an entry and exit tracepoint because future patches will add tracepoints to child functions of dax_iomap_pmd_fault() like dax_pmd_load_hole() and dax_pmd_insert_mapping(). We want those messages to be wrapped by the parent function tracepoints so the code flow is more easily understood. Having entry and exit tracepoints for faults also allows us to easily see what filesystems functions were called during the fault. These filesystem functions get executed via iomap_begin() and iomap_end() calls, for example, and will have their own tracepoints. For PMD faults we primarily want to understand the type of mapping, the fault flags, the faulting address and whether it fell back to 4k faults. If it fell back to 4k faults the tracepoints should let us understand why. I named the new tracepoint header file "fs_dax.h" to allow for device DAX to have its own separate tracing header in the same directory at some point. Here is an example output for these events from a successful PMD fault: big-1441 [005] .... 32.582758: xfs_filemap_pmd_fault: dev 259:0 ino 0x1003 big-1441 [005] .... 32.582776: dax_pmd_fault: dev 259:0 ino 0x1003 shared WRITE|ALLOW_RETRY|KILLABLE|USER address 0x10505000 vm_start 0x10200000 vm_end 0x10700000 pgoff 0x200 max_pgoff 0x1400 big-1441 [005] .... 32.583292: dax_pmd_fault_done: dev 259:0 ino 0x1003 shared WRITE|ALLOW_RETRY|KILLABLE|USER address 0x10505000 vm_start 0x10200000 vm_end 0x10700000 pgoff 0x200 max_pgoff 0x1400 NOPAGE Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1484085142-2297-3-git-send-email-ross.zwisler@linux.intel.comSigned-off-by: Ross Zwisler <ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com> Suggested-by: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Acked-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Dave Jiang <dave.jiang@intel.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Patch series "DAX tracepoints, mm argument simplification", v4. This contains both my DAX tracepoint code and Dave Jiang's MM argument simplifications. Dave's code was written with my tracepoint code as a baseline, so it seemed simplest to keep them together in a single series. This patch (of 7): Add __print_flags_u64() and the helper trace_print_flags_seq_u64() in the same spirit as __print_symbolic_u64() and trace_print_symbols_seq_u64(). These functions allow us to print symbols associated with flags that are 64 bits wide even on 32 bit machines. These will be used by the DAX code so that we can print the flags set in a pfn_t such as PFN_SG_CHAIN, PFN_SG_LAST, PFN_DEV and PFN_MAP. Without this new function I was getting errors like the following when compiling for i386: include/linux/pfn_t.h:13:22: warning: large integer implicitly truncated to unsigned type [-Woverflow] #define PFN_SG_CHAIN (1ULL << (BITS_PER_LONG_LONG - 1)) ^ Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1484085142-2297-2-git-send-email-ross.zwisler@linux.intel.comSigned-off-by: Ross Zwisler <ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Cc: Dave Jiang <dave.jiang@intel.com> Cc: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Pull tty/serial driver updates from Greg KH: "Here is the big tty/serial driver patchset for 4.11-rc1. Not much here, but a lot of little fixes and individual serial driver updates all over the subsystem.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman: "Highlights include: - Support for direct mapped LPC on POWER9, giving Linux direct access to devices that may be on there such as a UART. - Memory hotplug support for the Power9 Radix MMU. - Add new AUX vectors describing the processor's cache geometry, to be used by glibc. - The ability for a guest to ask the hypervisor to resize the guest's hash table, and in addition support for doing so automatically when memory is hotplugged into/out-of the guest. This allows the hash table to be sized based on the current memory usage of the guest, rather than the maximum possible memory usage. - Implementation of optprobes (kprobe optimisation) for powerpc. In addition there's the topic branch shared with the KVM tree, which includes support for guests to use the Radix MMU on Power9.
