Add a working sysctl to enable/disable automatic numa memory balancing
at runtime.
This allows us to track down performance problems with this feature and
is generally a good idea.
This was possible earlier through debugfs, but only with special
debugging options set. Also fix the boot message.

When calling free_all_bootmem() the free areas under memblock's control
are released to the buddy allocator. Additionally the reserved list is
freed if it was reallocated by memblock. The same should apply for the
memory list.

When memblock_reserve() fails because memblock.reserved.regions cannot
be resized, the caller (e.g. alloc_bootmem()) is not informed of the
failed allocation. Therefore alloc_bootmem() silently returns the same
pointer again and again.
This patch adds a check for the return value of memblock_reserve() in
__alloc_memory_core().

Currently we take both the memcg_create_mutex and the set_limit_mutex
when we enable kmem accounting for a memory cgroup, which makes kmem
activation events serialize with both memcg creations and other memcg
limit updates (memory.limit, memory.memsw.limit). However, there is no
point in such strict synchronization rules there.
First, the set_limit_mutex was introduced to keep the memory.limit and
memory.memsw.limit values in sync. Since memory.kmem.limit can be set
independently of them, it is better to introduce a separate mutex to
synchronize against concurrent kmem limit updates.
Second, we take the memcg_create_mutex in order to make sure all
children of this memcg will be kmem-active as well. For achieving that,
it is enough to hold this mutex only while checking if
memcg_has_children() though. This guarantees that if a child is added
after we checked that the memcg has no children, the newly added cgroup
will see its parent kmem-active (of course if the latter succeeded), and
call kmem activation for itself.
This patch simplifies the locking rules of memcg_update_kmem_limit()
according to these considerations.

Currently we have two state bits in mem_cgroup::kmem_account_flags
regarding kmem accounting activation, ACTIVATED and ACTIVE. We start
kmem accounting only if both flags are set (memcg_can_account_kmem()),
plus throughout the code there are several places where we check only
the ACTIVE flag, but we never check the ACTIVATED flag alone. These
flags are both set from memcg_update_kmem_limit() under the
set_limit_mutex, the ACTIVE flag always being set after ACTIVATED, and
they never get cleared. That said checking if both flags are set is
equivalent to checking only for the ACTIVE flag, and since there is no
ACTIVATED flag checks, we can safely remove the ACTIVATED flag, and
nothing will change.
Let's try to understand what was the reason for introducing these flags.
The purpose of the ACTIVE flag is clear - it states that kmem should be
accounting to the cgroup. The only requirement for it is that it should
be set after we have fully initialized kmem accounting bits for the
cgroup and patched all static branches relating to kmem accounting.
Since we always check if static branch is enabled before actually
considering if we should account (otherwise we wouldn't benefit from
static branching), this guarantees us that we won't skip a commit or
uncharge after a charge due to an unpatched static branch.
Now let's move on to the ACTIVATED bit. As I proved in the beginning of
this message, it is absolutely useless, and removing it will change
nothing. So what was the reason introducing it?
The ACTIVATED flag was introduced by commit a8964b9b84f9 ("memcg: use
static branches when code not in use") in order to guarantee that
static_key_slow_inc(&memcg_kmem_enabled_key) would be called only once
for each memory cgroup when its kmem accounting was activated. The
point was that at that time the memcg_update_kmem_limit() function's
work-flow looked like this:
bool must_inc_static_branch = false;
cgroup_lock();
mutex_lock(&set_limit_mutex);
if (!memcg->kmem_account_flags && val != RESOURCE_MAX) {
/* The kmem limit is set for the first time */
ret = res_counter_set_limit(&memcg->kmem, val);
memcg_kmem_set_activated(memcg);
must_inc_static_branch = true;
} else
ret = res_counter_set_limit(&memcg->kmem, val);
mutex_unlock(&set_limit_mutex);
cgroup_unlock();
if (must_inc_static_branch) {
/* We can't do this under cgroup_lock */
static_key_slow_inc(&memcg_kmem_enabled_key);
memcg_kmem_set_active(memcg);
}
So that without the ACTIVATED flag we could race with other threads
trying to set the limit and increment the static branching ref-counter
more than once. Today we call the whole memcg_update_kmem_limit()
function under the set_limit_mutex and this race is impossible.
As now we understand why the ACTIVATED bit was introduced and why we
don't need it now, and know that removing it will change nothing anyway,
let's get rid of it.

We relocate root cache's memcg_params whenever we need to grow the
memcg_caches array to accommodate all kmem-active memory cgroups.
Currently on relocation we free the old version immediately, which can
lead to use-after-free, because the memcg_caches array is accessed
lock-free (see cache_from_memcg_idx()). This patch fixes this by making
memcg_params RCU-protected for root caches.

There is no point in flooding logs with warnings or especially crashing
the system if we fail to create a cache for a memcg. In this case we
will be accounting the memcg allocation to the root cgroup until we
succeed to create its own cache, but it isn't that critical.

kmem_cache_dup() is only called from memcg_create_kmem_cache(). The
latter, in fact, does nothing besides this, so let's fold
kmem_cache_dup() into memcg_create_kmem_cache().
This patch also makes the memcg_cache_mutex private to
memcg_create_kmem_cache(), because it is not used anywhere else.

We obtain a per-memcg cache from a root kmem_cache by dereferencing an
entry of the root cache's memcg_params::memcg_caches array. If we find
no cache for a memcg there on allocation, we initiate the memcg cache
creation (see memcg_kmem_get_cache()). The cache creation proceeds
asynchronously in memcg_create_kmem_cache() in order to avoid lock
clashes, so there can be several threads trying to create the same
kmem_cache concurrently, but only one of them may succeed. However, due
to a race in the code, it is not always true. The point is that the
memcg_caches array can be relocated when we activate kmem accounting for
a memcg (see memcg_update_all_caches(), memcg_update_cache_size()). If
memcg_update_cache_size() and memcg_create_kmem_cache() proceed
concurrently as described below, we can leak a kmem_cache.
Asume two threads schedule creation of the same kmem_cache. One of them
successfully creates it. Another one should fail then, but if
memcg_create_kmem_cache() interleaves with memcg_update_cache_size() as
follows, it won't:
memcg_create_kmem_cache() memcg_update_cache_size()
(called w/o mutexes held) (called with slab_mutex,
set_limit_mutex held)
------------------------- -------------------------
mutex_lock(&memcg_cache_mutex)
s->memcg_params=kzalloc(...)
new_cachep=cache_from_memcg_idx(cachep,idx)
// new_cachep==NULL => proceed to creation
s->memcg_params->memcg_caches[i]
=cur_params->memcg_caches[i]
// kmem_cache_create_memcg takes slab_mutex
// so we will hang around until
// memcg_update_cache_size finishes, but
// nothing will prevent it from succeeding so
// memcg_caches[idx] will be overwritten in
// memcg_register_cache!
new_cachep = kmem_cache_create_memcg(...)
mutex_unlock(&memcg_cache_mutex)
Let's fix this by moving the check for existence of the memcg cache to
kmem_cache_create_memcg() to be called under the slab_mutex and make it
return NULL if so.
A similar race is possible when destroying a memcg cache (see
kmem_cache_destroy()). Since memcg_unregister_cache(), which clears the
pointer in the memcg_caches array, is called w/o protection, we can race
with memcg_update_cache_size() and omit clearing the pointer. Therefore
memcg_unregister_cache() should be moved before we release the
slab_mutex.

All caches of the same memory cgroup are linked in the memcg_slab_caches
list via kmem_cache::memcg_params::list. This list is traversed, for
example, when we read memory.kmem.slabinfo.
Since the list actually consists of memcg_cache_params objects, we have
to convert an element of the list to a kmem_cache object using
memcg_params_to_cache(), which obtains the pointer to the cache from the
memcg_params::memcg_caches array of the corresponding root cache. That
said the pointer to a kmem_cache in its parent's memcg_params must be
initialized before adding the cache to the list, and cleared only after
it has been unlinked. Currently it is vice-versa, which can result in a
NULL ptr dereference while traversing the memcg_slab_caches list. This
patch restores the correct order.

Each root kmem_cache has pointers to per-memcg caches stored in its
memcg_params::memcg_caches array. Whenever we want to allocate a slab
for a memcg, we access this array to get per-memcg cache to allocate
from (see memcg_kmem_get_cache()). The access must be lock-free for
performance reasons, so we should use barriers to assert the kmem_cache
is up-to-date.
First, we should place a write barrier immediately before setting the
pointer to it in the memcg_caches array in order to make sure nobody
will see a partially initialized object. Second, we should issue a read
barrier before dereferencing the pointer to conform to the write
barrier.
However, currently the barrier usage looks rather strange. We have a
write barrier *after* setting the pointer and a read barrier *before*
reading the pointer, which is incorrect. This patch fixes this.

Currently, we have rather a messy function set relating to per-memcg
kmem cache initialization/destruction.
Per-memcg caches are created in memcg_create_kmem_cache(). This
function calls kmem_cache_create_memcg() to allocate and initialize a
kmem cache and then "registers" the new cache in the
memcg_params::memcg_caches array of the parent cache.
During its work-flow, kmem_cache_create_memcg() executes the following
memcg-related functions:
- memcg_alloc_cache_params(), to initialize memcg_params of the newly
created cache;
- memcg_cache_list_add(), to add the new cache to the memcg_slab_caches
list.
On the other hand, kmem_cache_destroy() called on a cache destruction
only calls memcg_release_cache(), which does all the work: it cleans the
reference to the cache in its parent's memcg_params::memcg_caches,
removes the cache from the memcg_slab_caches list, and frees
memcg_params.
Such an inconsistency between destruction and initialization paths make
the code difficult to read, so let's clean this up a bit.
This patch moves all the code relating to registration of per-memcg
caches (adding to memcg list, setting the pointer to a cache from its
parent) to the newly created memcg_register_cache() and
memcg_unregister_cache() functions making the initialization and
destruction paths look symmetrical.

We do not free the cache's memcg_params if __kmem_cache_create fails.
Fix this.
Plus, rename memcg_register_cache() to memcg_alloc_cache_params(),
because it actually does not register the cache anywhere, but simply
initialize kmem_cache::memcg_params.

Currently kmem_cache_create_memcg() backoffs on failure inside
conditionals, without using gotos. This results in the rollback code
duplication, which makes the function look cumbersome even though on
error we should only free the allocated cache. Since in the next patch
I am going to add yet another rollback function call on error path
there, let's employ labels instead of conditionals for undoing any
changes on failure to keep things clean.

Most of the VM_BUG_ON assertions are performed on a page. Usually, when
one of these assertions fails we'll get a BUG_ON with a call stack and
the registers.
I've recently noticed based on the requests to add a small piece of code
that dumps the page to various VM_BUG_ON sites that the page dump is
quite useful to people debugging issues in mm.
This patch adds a VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(cond, page) which beyond doing what
VM_BUG_ON() does, also dumps the page before executing the actual
BUG_ON.

stable_page_flags() checks !PageHuge && PageTransCompound && PageLRU to
know that a specified page is thp or not. But sometimes it's not enough
and we fail to detect thp when the thp is on pagevec. This happens only
for a few seconds after LRU list operations, but it makes it difficult
to control our applications depending on this flag.
So this patch adds another check PageAnon to detect thps on pagevec. It
might not give the future extensibility for thp pagecache, but it's OK
at least for now.

The vmalloc was introduced by 33327948782b ("memcgroup: use vmalloc for
mem_cgroup allocation"), because at that time MAX_NUMNODES was used for
defining the per-node array in the mem_cgroup structure so that the
structure could be huge even if the system had the only NUMA node.
The situation was significantly improved by commit 45cf7ebd5a03 ("memcg:
reduce the size of struct memcg 244-fold"), which made the size of the
mem_cgroup structure calculated dynamically depending on the real number
of NUMA nodes installed on the system (nr_node_ids), so now there is no
point in using vmalloc here: the structure is allocated rarely and on
most systems its size is about 1K.

Since commit ff6a6da60b89 ("mm: accelerate munlock() treatment of THP
pages") munlock skips tail pages of a munlocked THP page. There is some
attempt to prevent bad consequences of racing with a THP page split, but
code inspection indicates that there are two problems that may lead to a
non-fatal, yet wrong outcome.
First, __split_huge_page_refcount() copies flags including PageMlocked
from the head page to the tail pages. Clearing PageMlocked by
munlock_vma_page() in the middle of this operation might result in part
of tail pages left with PageMlocked flag. As the head page still
appears to be a THP page until all tail pages are processed,
munlock_vma_page() might think it munlocked the whole THP page and skip
all the former tail pages. Before ff6a6da60, those pages would be
cleared in further iterations of munlock_vma_pages_range(), but NR_MLOCK
would still become undercounted (related the next point).
Second, NR_MLOCK accounting is based on call to hpage_nr_pages() after
the PageMlocked is cleared. The accounting might also become
inconsistent due to race with __split_huge_page_refcount()
- undercount when HUGE_PMD_NR is subtracted, but some tail pages are
left with PageMlocked set and counted again (only possible before
ff6a6da60)
- overcount when hpage_nr_pages() sees a normal page (split has already
finished), but the parallel split has meanwhile cleared PageMlocked from
additional tail pages
This patch prevents both problems via extending the scope of lru_lock in
munlock_vma_page(). This is convenient because:
- __split_huge_page_refcount() takes lru_lock for its whole operation
- munlock_vma_page() typically takes lru_lock anyway for page isolation
As this becomes a second function where page isolation is done with
lru_lock already held, factor this out to a new
__munlock_isolate_lru_page() function and clean up the code around.

bad_page() is cool in that it prints out a bunch of data about the page.
But, I can never remember which page flags are good and which are bad,
or whether ->index or ->mapping is required to be NULL.
This patch allows bad/dump_page() callers to specify a string about why
they are dumping the page and adds explanation strings to a number of
places. It also adds a 'bad_flags' argument to bad_page(), which it
then dumps out separately from the flags which are actually set.
This way, the messages will show specifically why the page was bad,
*specifically* which flags it is complaining about, if it was a page
flag combination which was the problem.

Documentation/vm/locking is a blast from the past. In the entire git
history, it has had precisely Three modifications. Two of those look to
be pure renames, and the third was from 2005.
The doc contains such gems as:
> The page_table_lock is grabbed while holding the
> kernel_lock spinning monitor.
> Page stealers hold kernel_lock to protect against a bunch of
> races.
Or this which talks about mmap_sem:

expand_stack() doesn't take any locks any more directly, and the
mmap_sem acquisition was long ago moved up in to the page fault code
itself.
It could be argued that we need to rewrite this, but it is dangerous to
leave it as-is. It will confuse more people than it helps.

conditional check was added to allow cross-compilation on machines which
are not running the latest libc-dev.
Inspired by AARCH64 commit adace89562c7 ("arm64: extable: sort the
exception table at build time").

This check is not needed because the same check is done before
fill_slave_info is used in rtnl_link_slave_info_fill.
Also, by removing this check, kernel will fillup IFLA_INFO_SLAVE_KIND
even for slaves of masters which does not implement fill_slave_info.

o Refactored MSI-x vector calculation for All adapters.
Decoupled logic in the code which was using same call to
request MSI-x vectors in default driver load, as well as
during set_channel() operation for TSS/RSS. This refactoring
simplifies code for TSS/RSS code path as well as probe path
of the driver load for all adapters.

After the option conversion downdelay and updelay divide a u64
and on a 32 bit this causes the following errors:
ERROR: "__udivdi3" [drivers/net/bonding/bonding.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "__umoddi3" [drivers/net/bonding/bonding.ko] undefined!
Fix it by using a normal int instead because newval->value is capped
at INT_MAX by the way the option is defined.

As part of a workaround for a hardware erratum in the SFC9100 family
(SF bug 35388), the TX_DESC_UPD_DWORD register address is also used
for communicating with the event block, and only descriptor pointer
values < 2048 are valid.
If the TX DMA ring size is increased to 4096 descriptors (which the
firmware still allows) then we may write a descriptor pointer
value >= 2048, which has entirely different and undesirable effects!
Limit the TX DMA ring size correctly when this workaround is in
effect.

commit a622260254ee48("ip_tunnel: fix kernel panic with icmp_dest_unreach")

GSO segmentation layer.
But commit 0e6fbc5b6c621("ip_tunnels: extend iptunnel_xmit()") refactor codes,
and it clear IPCB behind the dst_link_failure().
So clear IPCB in ip_tunnel_xmit() just like commti a622260254ee48("ip_tunnel:

We possibly retrieve the adapter's statistics during EEH recovery
and that should be disallowed. Otherwise, it would possibly incur
replicate EEH error and EEH recovery is going to fail eventually.
The patch reuses statistics lock and checks net_device is attached
before going to retrieve statistics, so that the problem can be
avoided.

If we have EEH error happens to the adapter and we have to remove
it from the system for some reasons (e.g. more than 5 EEH errors
detected from the device in last hour), the adapter will be disabled
for towice separately by eeh_err_detected() and remove_one(), which
will incur following unexpected backtrace. The patch tries to avoid
it.

When we have multiple devices attempting to sync the same address
to a single destination, each device should be permitted to sync
it once. To accomplish this, pass the 'sync_cnt' of the source
address when adding the addresss to the lower device. 'sync_cnt'
tracks how many time a given address has been succefully synced.
This way, we know that if the 'sync_cnt' passed in is 0, we should
sync this address.
Also, turn 'synced' member back into the counter as was originally
done in
commit 4543fbefe6e06a9e40d9f2b28d688393a299f079.
net: count hw_addr syncs so that unsync works properly.
It tracks how many time a given address has been added via a
'sync' operation. For every successfull 'sync' the counter is
incremented, and for ever 'unsync', the counter is decremented.
This makes sure that the address will be properly removed from
the the lower device when all the upper devices have removed it.

A socket may be v6/v4-mapped. In that case sk->sk_family is AF_INET6,
but the IP being used is actually an IPv4-address.
Current's tcp-metrics will thus represent it as an IPv6-address:
root@server:~# ip tcp_metrics
::ffff:10.1.1.2 age 22.920sec rtt 18750us rttvar 15000us cwnd 10
10.1.1.2 age 47.970sec rtt 16250us rttvar 10000us cwnd 10
This patch modifies the tcp-metrics so that they are able to handle the
v6/v4-mapped sockets correctly.
