DAX PMDs have been disabled since Jan Kara introduced DAX radix tree based locking. This patch allows DAX PMDs to participate in the DAX radix tree based locking scheme so that they can be re-enabled using the new struct iomap based fault handlers. There are currently three types of DAX 4k entries: 4k zero pages, 4k DAX mappings that have an associated block allocation, and 4k DAX empty entries. The empty entries exist to provide locking for the duration of a given page fault. This patch adds three equivalent 2MiB DAX entries: Huge Zero Page (HZP) entries, PMD DAX entries that have associated block allocations, and 2 MiB DAX empty entries. Unlike the 4k case where we insert a struct page* into the radix tree for 4k zero pages, for HZP we insert a DAX exceptional entry with the new RADIX_DAX_HZP flag set. This is because we use a single 2 MiB zero page in every 2MiB hole mapping, and it doesn't make sense to have that same struct page* with multiple entries in multiple trees. This would cause contention on the single page lock for the one Huge Zero Page, and it would break the page->index and page->mapping associations that are assumed to be valid in many other places in the kernel. One difficult use case is when one thread is trying to use 4k entries in radix tree for a given offset, and another thread is using 2 MiB entries for that same offset. The current code handles this by making the 2 MiB user fall back to 4k entries for most cases. This was done because it is the simplest solution, and because the use of 2MiB pages is already opportunistic. If we were to try to upgrade from 4k pages to 2MiB pages for a given range, we run into the problem of how we lock out 4k page faults for the entire 2MiB range while we clean out the radix tree so we can insert the 2MiB entry. We can solve this problem if we need to, but I think that the cases where both 2MiB entries and 4K entries are being used for the same range will be rare enough and the gain small enough that it probably won't be worth the complexity.

The RADIX_DAX_* defines currently mostly live in fs/dax.c, with just RADIX_DAX_ENTRY_LOCK being in include/linux/dax.h so it can be used in mm/filemap.c. When we add PMD support, though, mm/filemap.c will also need access to the RADIX_DAX_PTE type so it can properly construct a 4k sized empty entry. Instead of shifting the defines between dax.c and dax.h as they are individually used in other code, just move them wholesale to dax.h so they'll be available when we need them.

Currently iomap_end() doesn't do anything for DAX page faults for both ext2 and XFS. ext2_iomap_end() just checks for a write underrun, and xfs_file_iomap_end() checks to see if it needs to finish a delayed allocation. However, in the future iomap_end() calls might be needed to make sure we have balanced allocations, locks, etc. So, add calls to iomap_end() with appropriate error handling to dax_iomap_fault().

DAX radix tree locking currently locks entries based on the unique combination of the 'mapping' pointer and the pgoff_t 'index' for the entry. This works for PTEs, but as we move to PMDs we will need to have all the offsets within the range covered by the PMD to map to the same bit lock. To accomplish this, for ranges covered by a PMD entry we will instead lock based on the page offset of the beginning of the PMD entry. The 'mapping' pointer is still used in the same way.

DAX PMD support was added via the following commit: commit e7b1ea2a ("ext2: huge page fault support") I believe this path to be untested as ext2 doesn't reliably provide block allocations that are aligned to 2MiB. In my testing I've been unable to get ext2 to actually fault in a PMD. It always fails with a "pfn unaligned" message because the sector returned by ext2_get_block() isn't aligned. I've tried various settings for the "stride" and "stripe_width" extended options to mkfs.ext2, without any luck. Since we can't reliably get PMDs, remove support so that we don't have an untested code path that we may someday traverse when we happen to get an aligned block allocation. This should also make 4k DAX faults in ext2 a bit faster since they will no longer have to call the PMD fault handler only to get a response of VM_FAULT_FALLBACK.

Change thaw_super() to check frozen != SB_FREEZE_COMPLETE rather than frozen == SB_UNFROZEN, otherwise it can race with freeze_super() which drops sb->s_umount after SB_FREEZE_WRITE to preserve the lock ordering. In this case thaw_super() will wrongly call s_op->unfreeze_fs() before it was actually frozen, and call sb_freeze_unlock() which leads to the unbalanced percpu_up_write().

Both import_iovec() and rw_copy_check_uvector() take an array (typically small and on-stack) which is used to hold an iovec array copy from userspace. This is to avoid an expensive memory allocation in the fast path (i.e. few iovec elements). The caller may have to check whether these functions actually used the provided buffer or allocated a new one -- but this differs between the too. Let's just add a kernel doc to clarify what the semantics are for each function. Signed-off-by: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Pull kbuild updates from Michal Marek: - EXPORT_SYMBOL for asm source by Al Viro. This does bring a regression, because genksyms no longer generates checksums for these symbols (CONFIG_MODVERSIONS). Nick Piggin is working on a patch to fix this. Plus, we are talking about functions like strcpy(), which rarely change prototypes. - Fixes for PPC fallout of the above by Stephen Rothwell and Nick Piggin - fixdep speedup by Alexey Dobriyan. - preparatory work by Nick Piggin to allow architectures to build with -ffunction-sections, -fdata-sections and --gc-sections - CONFIG_THIN_ARCHIVES support by Stephen Rothwell - fix for filenames with colons in the initramfs source by me. * 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild: (22 commits) initramfs: Escape colons in depfile ppc: there is no clear_pages to export powerpc/64: whitelist unresolved modversions CRCs kbuild: -ffunction-sections fix for archs with conflicting sections kbuild: add arch specific post-link Makefile kbuild: allow archs to select link dead code/data elimination kbuild: allow architectures to use thin archives instead of ld -r kbuild: Regenerate genksyms lexer kbuild: genksyms fix for typeof handling fixdep: faster CONFIG_ search ia64: move exports to definitions sparc32: debride memcpy.S a bit [sparc] unify 32bit and 64bit string.h sparc: move exports to definitions ppc: move exports to definitions arm: move exports to definitions s390: move exports to definitions m68k: move exports to definitions alpha: move exports to actual definitions x86: move exports to actual definitions ...

Pull rdma qedr RoCE driver from Doug Ledford: "Early on in the merge window I mentioned I had a backlog of new drivers waiting to be reviewed and that, in addition to the hns-roce driver, I wanted to get possible a couple more reviewed. I ended up only having the time to complete one of the additional drivers. During Dave Miller's pull request this go around, there were a series of 9 patches to the QLogic qed net driver that add basic support for a paired RoCE driver. That support is currently not functional because it is missing the matching RoCE driver in the RDMA subsystem. I managed to finish that review. However, because it goes against part of Dave's net pull, and a part that was accepted a day or two after the merge window opened, to apply cleanly it has to be applied to either the tip of Dave's net branch, or as I did in this case, I just applied it to your master after you had taken Dave's pull request." * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dledford/rdma: qedr: Add events support and register IB device qedr: Add GSI support qedr: Add LL2 RoCE interface qedr: Add support for data path qedr: Add support for memory registeration verbs qedr: Add support for QP verbs qedr: Add support for PD,PKEY and CQ verbs qedr: Add support for user context verbs qedr: Add support for RoCE HW init qedr: Add RoCE driver framework

Pull more rdma updates from Doug Ledford: "This merge window was the first where Huawei had to try and coordinate their patches between their net driver and their new roce driver (similar to mlx4 and mlx5). They didn't do horribly, but there were some issues (and we knew that because they simply didn't know what to do in the beginning). As a result, I had a set of patches that depended on some patches that normally would have come to you via Dave's tree. Those patches have been on netdev@ for a while, so I got Dave to give me his approval to send them to you. As such, the other 29 patches I had behind them are also now ready to go. This catches the hns and hns-roce drivers up to current, and for future patches we are working with them to get them up to speed on how to do joint driver development so that they don't have these sorts of cross tree dependency issues again. BTW, Dave gave me permission to add his Acked-by: to the patches against the net tree, but I've had this branch through 0day (but not linux-next since it was off by itself) and I didn't want to rebase the series just to add Dave's ack for the 8 patches in the net area.
