      Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
       "Lots of activity again this round for I/O performance optimizations
        (per-cpu IDA pre-allocation for vhost + iscsi/target), and the
        addition of new fabric independent features to target-core
        (COMPARE_AND_WRITE + EXTENDED_COPY).
      
        The main highlights include:
      
         - Support for iscsi-target login multiplexing across individual
           network portals
         - Generic Per-cpu IDA logic (kent + akpm + clameter)
         - Conversion of vhost to use per-cpu IDA pre-allocation for
           descriptors, SGLs and userspace page pointer list
         - Conversion of iscsi-target + iser-target to use per-cpu IDA
           pre-allocation for descriptors
         - Add support for generic COMPARE_AND_WRITE (AtomicTestandSet)
           emulation for virtual backend drivers
         - Add support for generic EXTENDED_COPY (CopyOffload) emulation for
           virtual backend drivers.
         - Add support for fast memory registration mode to iser-target (Vu)
      
        The patches to add COMPARE_AND_WRITE and EXTENDED_COPY support are of
        particular significance, which make us the first and only open source
        target to support the full set of VAAI primitives.
      
        Currently Linux clients are lacking upstream support to actually
        utilize these primitives.  However, with server side support now in
        place for folks like MKP + ZAB working on the client, this logic once
        reserved for the highest end of storage arrays, can now be run in VMs
        on their laptops"

      mm, thp: count thp_fault_fallback anytime thp fault fails · 17766dde
      David Rientjes authored
      Currently, thp_fault_fallback in vmstat only gets incremented if a
      hugepage allocation fails.  If current's memcg hits its limit or the page
      fault handler returns an error, it is incorrectly accounted as a
      successful thp_fault_alloc.
      
      Count thp_fault_fallback anytime the page fault handler falls back to
      using regular pages and only count thp_fault_alloc when a hugepage has
      actually been faulted.

      mm: make lru_add_drain_all() selective · 5fbc4616
      Chris Metcalf authored
      make lru_add_drain_all() only selectively interrupt the cpus that have
      per-cpu free pages that can be drained.
      
      This is important in nohz mode where calling mlockall(), for example,
      otherwise will interrupt every core unnecessarily.
      
      This is important on workloads where nohz cores are handling 10 Gb traffic
      in userspace.  Those CPUs do not enter the kernel and place pages into LRU
      pagevecs and they really, really don't want to be interrupted, or they
      drop packets on the floor.

      memcg: add per cgroup writeback pages accounting · 3ea67d06
      Sha Zhengju authored
      Add memcg routines to count writeback pages, later dirty pages will also
      be accounted.
      
      After Kame's commit 89c06bd5 ("memcg: use new logic for page stat
      accounting"), we can use 'struct page' flag to test page state instead
      of per page_cgroup flag.  But memcg has a feature to move a page from a
      cgroup to another one and may have race between "move" and "page stat
      accounting".  So in order to avoid the race we have designed a new lock:
      
               mem_cgroup_begin_update_page_stat()
               modify page information        -->(a)
               mem_cgroup_update_page_stat()  -->(b)
               mem_cgroup_end_update_page_stat()
      
      It requires both (a) and (b)(writeback pages accounting) to be pretected
      in mem_cgroup_{begin/end}_update_page_stat().  It's full no-op for
      !CONFIG_MEMCG, almost no-op if memcg is disabled (but compiled in), rcu
      read lock in the most cases (no task is moving), and spin_lock_irqsave
      on top in the slow path.
      
      There're two writeback interfaces to modify: test_{clear/set}_page_writeback().
      And the lock order is:
      	--> memcg->move_lock
      	  --> mapping->tree_lock

      memcg: check for proper lock held in mem_cgroup_update_page_stat · 658b72c5
      Sha Zhengju authored
      We should call mem_cgroup_begin_update_page_stat() before
      mem_cgroup_update_page_stat() to get proper locks, however the latter
      doesn't do any checking that we use proper locking, which would be hard.
      Suggested by Michal Hock we could at least test for rcu_read_lock_held()
      because RCU is held if !mem_cgroup_disabled().

      memcg: remove MEMCG_NR_FILE_MAPPED · 68b4876d
      Sha Zhengju authored
      While accounting memcg page stat, it's not worth to use
      MEMCG_NR_FILE_MAPPED as an extra layer of indirection because of the
      complexity and presumed performance overhead.  We can use
      MEM_CGROUP_STAT_FILE_MAPPED directly.
