5f43ba2950 dm kcopyd: reserve fewer pages
Reserve just the minimum of pages needed to process one job.

Because we allocate pages from page allocator, we don't need to reserve
a large number of pages.  The maximum job size is SUB_JOB_SIZE and we
calculate the number of reserved pages based on this.

bda8efec5c dm io: use fixed initial mempool size
Replace the arbitrary calculation of an initial io struct mempool size
with a constant.

The code calculated the number of reserved structures based on the request
size and used a "magic" multiplication constant of 4.  This patch changes
it to reserve a fixed number - itself still chosen quite arbitrarily.
Further testing might show if there is a better number to choose.

Note that if there is no memory pressure, we can still allocate an
arbitrary number of "struct io" structures.  One structure is enough to
process the whole request.

4cc1b4cffd dm kcopyd: remove superfluous page allocation spinlock
Remove the spinlock protecting the pages allocation.  The spinlock is only
taken on initialization or from single-threaded workqueue.  Therefore, the
spinlock is useless.

The spinlock is taken in kcopyd_get_pages and kcopyd_put_pages.

kcopyd_get_pages is only called from run_pages_job, which is only
called from process_jobs called from do_work.

kcopyd_put_pages is called from client_alloc_pages (which is initialization
function) or from run_complete_job. run_complete_job is only called from
process_jobs called from do_work.

Another spinlock, kc->job_lock is taken each time someone pushes or pops
some work for the worker thread.  Once we take kc->job_lock, we
guarantee that any written memory is visible to the other CPUs.

c6ea41fbbe dm kcopyd: preallocate sub jobs to avoid deadlock
There's a possible theoretical deadlock in dm-kcopyd because multiple
allocations from the same mempool are required to finish a request.
Avoid this by preallocating sub jobs.

There is a mempool of 512 entries. Each request requires up to 9
entries from the mempool. If we have at least 57 concurrent requests
running, the mempool may overflow and mempool allocations may start
blocking until another entry is freed to the mempool. Because the same
thread is used to free entries to the mempool and allocate entries from
the mempool, this may result in a deadlock.

This patch changes it so that one mempool entry contains all 9 "struct
kcopyd_job" required to fulfill the whole request. The allocation is
done only once in dm_kcopyd_copy and no further mempool allocations are
done during request processing.

If dm_kcopyd_copy is not run in the completion thread, this
implementation is deadlock-free.

MIN_JOBS needs reducing accordingly and we've chosen to reduce it
further to 8.

f4808ca99a dm table: reject devices without request fns
This patch adds a check that a block device has a request function
defined before it is used.  Otherwise, misconfiguration can cause an oops.

Because we are allowing devices with zero size e.g. an offline multipath
device as in commit 2cd54d9bed
("dm: allow offline devices") there needs to be an additional check
to ensure devices are initialised.  Some block devices, like a loop
device without a backing file, exist but have no request function.

Reproducer is trivial: dm-mirror on unbound loop device
(no backing file on loop devices)

dmsetup create x --table "0 8 mirror core 2 8 sync 2 /dev/loop0 0 /dev/loop1 0"

and mirror resync will immediatelly cause OOps.

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at   (null)

5d4c47e019 x86 idle: deprecate mwait_idle() and "idle=mwait" cmdline param
mwait_idle() is a C1-only idle loop intended to be more efficient
than HLT on SMP hardware that supports it.

But mwait_idle() has been replaced by the more general
mwait_idle_with_hints(), which handles both C1 and deeper C-states.
ACPI uses only mwait_idle_with_hints(), and never uses mwait_idle().

Deprecate mwait_idle() and the "idle=mwait" cmdline param
to simplify the x86 idle code.

After this change, kernels configured with
(!CONFIG_ACPI=n && !CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=n) when run on hardware
that support MWAIT will simply use HLT.  If MWAIT is desired
on those systems, cpuidle and the cpuidle drivers above
can be used.

cdaab4a0d3 x86 idle: deprecate "no-hlt" cmdline param
We'd rather that modern machines not check if HLT works on
every entry into idle, for the benefit of machines that had
marginal electricals 15-years ago.  If those machines are still running
the upstream kernel, they can use "idle=poll".  The only difference
will be that they'll now invoke HLT in machine_hlt().

99c6322143 x86 idle APM: deprecate CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE
We don't want to export the pm_idle function pointer to modules.
Currently CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE w/ CONFIG_APM_MODULE forces us to.

CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE is of dubious value, it runs only on 32-bit
uniprocessor laptops that are over 10 years old.  It calls into
the BIOS during idle, and is known to cause a number of machines
to fail.

Removing CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE and will allow us to stop exporting
pm_idle.  Any systems that were calling into the APM BIOS
at run-time will simply use HLT instead.

The workaround for AMD erratum 400 uses the term "c1e" falsely suggesting:

2. All AMD processors with C1E are involved

this workaround is specific to AMD's version of C1E.
Use the string "e400" to clarify that the workaround is specific

932df74143 ACPI: processor: fix processor_physically_present in UP kernel
Usually, there are multiple processors defined in ACPI table, for
example

    Scope (_PR)
    {
        Processor (CPU0, 0x00, 0x00000410, 0x06) {}
        Processor (CPU1, 0x01, 0x00000410, 0x06) {}
        Processor (CPU2, 0x02, 0x00000410, 0x06) {}
        Processor (CPU3, 0x03, 0x00000410, 0x06) {}
    }

processor_physically_present(...) will be called to check whether those
processors are physically present.

Currently we have below codes in processor_physically_present,

cpuid = acpi_get_cpuid(...);
if ((cpuid == -1) && (num_possible_cpus() > 1))
        return false;
return true;

In UP kernel, acpi_get_cpuid(...) always return -1 and
num_possible_cpus() always return 1, so
processor_physically_present(...) always returns true for all passed in
processor handles.

This is wrong for UP processor or SMP processor running UP kernel.

This patch removes the !SMP version of acpi_get_cpuid(), so both UP and
SMP kernel use the same acpi_get_cpuid function.

And for UP kernel, only processor 0 is valid.

I noticed that before entering idle state, the menu idle governor will
look up the current pm_qos target value according to the list of qos
requests received.  This look up currently needs the acquisition of a
lock to access the list of qos requests to find the qos target value,
slowing down the entrance into idle state due to contention by multiple
cpus to access this list.  The contention is severe when there are a lot
of cpus waking and going into idle.  For example, for a simple workload
that has 32 pair of processes ping ponging messages to each other, where
64 cpu cores are active in test system, I see the following profile with
37.82% of cpu cycles spent in contention of pm_qos_lock:

-     37.82%          swapper  [kernel.kallsyms]          [k]
_raw_spin_lock_irqsave
   - _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
      - 95.65% pm_qos_request
           menu_select
           cpuidle_idle_call
         - cpu_idle
              99.98% start_secondary

A better approach will be to cache the updated pm_qos target value so
reading it does not require lock acquisition as in the patch below.
With this patch the contention for pm_qos_lock is removed and I saw a
2.2X increase in throughput for my message passing workload.

7467571f44 cpuidle: menu: fixed wrapping timers at 4.294 seconds
Cpuidle menu governor is using u32 as a temporary datatype for storing
nanosecond values which wrap around at 4.294 seconds. This causes errors
in predicted sleep times resulting in higher than should be C state
selection and increased power consumption. This also breaks cpuidle
state residency statistics.

eee0f252c6 mm: fix page_lock_anon_vma leaving mutex locked
On one machine I've been getting hangs, a page fault's anon_vma_prepare()
waiting in anon_vma_lock(), other processes waiting for that page's lock.

This is a replay of last year's f18194275c "mm: fix hang on
anon_vma->root->lock".

The new page_lock_anon_vma() places too much faith in its refcount: when
it has acquired the mutex_trylock(), it's possible that a racing task in
anon_vma_alloc() has just reallocated the struct anon_vma, set refcount
to 1, and is about to reset its anon_vma->root.

Fix this by saving anon_vma->root, and relying on the usual page_mapped()
check instead of a refcount check: if page is still mapped, the anon_vma
is still ours; if page is not still mapped, we're no longer interested.

5dbe0af47f mm: fix kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:1017!
I've hit the "address >= vma->vm_end" check in do_page_add_anon_rmap()
just once.  The stack showed khugepaged allocation trying to compact
pages: the call to page_add_anon_rmap() coming from remove_migration_pte().

That path holds anon_vma lock, but does not hold mmap_sem: it can
therefore race with a split_vma(), and in commit 5f70b962cc "mmap:
avoid unnecessary anon_vma lock" we just took away the anon_vma lock
protection when adjusting vma->vm_end.

I don't think that particular BUG_ON ever caught anything interesting,
so better replace it by a comment, than reinstate the anon_vma locking.

826267cf1e tmpfs: fix race between truncate and writepage
While running fsx on tmpfs with a memhog then swapoff, swapoff was hanging
(interruptibly), repeatedly failing to locate the owner of a 0xff entry in
the swap_map.

Although shmem_writepage() does abandon when it sees incoming page index
is beyond eof, there was still a window in which shmem_truncate_range()
could come in between writepage's dropping lock and updating swap_map,
find the half-completed swap_map entry, and in trying to free it,
leave it in a state that swap_shmem_alloc() could not correct.

Arguably a bug in __swap_duplicate()'s and swap_entry_free()'s handling
of the different cases, but easiest to fix by moving swap_shmem_alloc()
under cover of the lock.

More interesting than the bug: it's been there since 2.6.33, why could
I not see it with earlier kernels?  The mmotm of two weeks ago seems to
have some magic for generating races, this is just one of three I found.

With yesterday's git I first saw this in mainline, bisected in search of
that magic, but the easy reproducibility evaporated.  Oh well, fix the bug.

c320afe965 Blackfin: debug-mmrs: include RSI_PID[4567] MMRs
The documentation is a little iffy as to whether these are actual MMRs,
but reading them on the hardware works, and the previous version of this
logic (the SDH) had PID[4567].  So add it for RSI too.

The bf52x/bf54x have the incorrect addresses for USB_EP_NI7_RXINTERVAL
and USB_EP_NI7_TXCOUNT, so adjust those.

Further, the bf54x header puts the USB defines in the wrong place, so
shuffle them back to the right grouping.

d09fb60203 Blackfin: debug-mmrs: fix typos with gptimers/mdma/ppi
This code was mostly developed against a BF54x, so some BF537-specific
issues were missed.

The PPI block starts at PPI_CONTROL, not PPI_STATUS (which is the reverse
of the EPPI block).

The MDMA block starts at MDMA_NEXT_DESC_PTR, not MDMA_CONFIG.  Seems the
sim does not catch misreads here so that'll need to get fixed.

The gptimer block is mostly 32bit regs, not 16bit.  Use the gptimer struct
to figure that out rather than hardcoding it locally.
