[ Upstream commit 7635d9cbe8327e131a1d3d8517dc186c2796ce2e ]
Userspace falls short when trying to find out whether a specific memory
range is eligible for THP. There are usecases that would like to know
that
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.21.1809251248450.50347@chino.kir.corp.google.com
: This is used to identify heap mappings that should be able to fault thp
: but do not, and they normally point to a low-on-memory or fragmentation
: issue.
The only way to deduce this now is to query for hg resp. nh flags and
confronting the state with the global setting. Except that there is also
PR_SET_THP_DISABLE that might change the picture. So the final logic is
not trivial. Moreover the eligibility of the vma depends on the type of
VMA as well. In the past we have supported only anononymous memory VMAs
but things have changed and shmem based vmas are supported as well these
days and the query logic gets even more complicated because the
eligibility depends on the mount option and another global configuration
knob.
Simplify the current state and report the THP eligibility in
/proc/<pid>/smaps for each existing vma. Reuse
transparent_hugepage_enabled for this purpose. The original
implementation of this function assumes that the caller knows that the vma
itself is supported for THP so make the core checks into
__transparent_hugepage_enabled and use it for existing callers.
__show_smap just use the new transparent_hugepage_enabled which also
checks the vma support status (please note that this one has to be out of
line due to include dependency issues).

commit 0be0bfd2de9dfdd2098a9c5b14bdd8f739c9165d upstream.
Once upon a time, commit 2cac0c00a6cd ("ovl: get exclusive ownership on
upper/work dirs") in v4.13 added some sanity checks on overlayfs layers.
This change caused a docker regression. The root cause was mount leaks
by docker, which as far as I know, still exist.
To mitigate the regression, commit 85fdee1eef1a ("ovl: fix regression
caused by exclusive upper/work dir protection") in v4.14 turned the
mount errors into warnings for the default index=off configuration.
Recently, commit 146d62e5a586 ("ovl: detect overlapping layers") in
v5.2, re-introduced exclusive upper/work dir checks regardless of
index=off configuration.
This changes the status quo and mount leak related bug reports have
started to re-surface. Restore the status quo to fix the regressions.
To clarify, index=off does NOT relax overlapping layers check for this
ovelayfs mount. index=off only relaxes exclusive upper/work dir checks
with another overlayfs mount.
To cover the part of overlapping layers detection that used the
exclusive upper/work dir checks to detect overlap with self upper/work
dir, add a trap also on the work base dir.

commit 5467a68cbf6884c9a9d91e2a89140afb1839c835 upstream.
For lockless accesses to dentries we don't have pinned we rely
(among other things) upon having an RCU delay between dropping
the last reference and actually freeing the memory.
On the other hand, for things like pipes and sockets we neither
do that kind of lockless access, nor want to deal with the
overhead of an RCU delay every time a socket gets closed.
So delay was made optional - setting DCACHE_RCUACCESS in ->d_flags
made sure it would happen. We tried to avoid setting it unless
we knew we need it. Unfortunately, that had led to recurring
class of bugs, in which we missed the need to set it.
We only really need it for dentries that are created by
d_alloc_pseudo(), so let's not bother with trying to be smart -
just make having an RCU delay the default. The ones that do
*not* get it set the replacement flag (DCACHE_NORCU) and we'd
better use that sparingly. d_alloc_pseudo() is the only
such user right now.
FWIW, the race that finally prompted that switch had been
between __lock_parent() of immediate subdirectory of what's
currently the root of a disconnected tree (e.g. from
open-by-handle in progress) racing with d_splice_alias()
elsewhere picking another alias for the same inode, either
on outright corrupted fs image, or (in case of open-by-handle
on NFS) that subdirectory having been just moved on server.
It's not easy to hit, so the sky is not falling, but that's
not the first race on similar missed cases and the logics
for settinf DCACHE_RCUACCESS has gotten ridiculously
convoluted.

[ Upstream commit 7550c6079846a24f30d15ac75a941c8515dbedfb ]
Patch series "THP eligibility reporting via proc".
This series of three patches aims at making THP eligibility reporting much
more robust and long term sustainable. The trigger for the change is a
regression report [2] and the long follow up discussion. In short the
specific application didn't have good API to query whether a particular
mapping can be backed by THP so it has used VMA flags to workaround that.
These flags represent a deep internal state of VMAs and as such they
should be used by userspace with a great deal of caution.
A similar has happened for [3] when users complained that VM_MIXEDMAP is
no longer set on DAX mappings. Again a lack of a proper API led to an
abuse.
The first patch in the series tries to emphasise that that the semantic of
flags might change and any application consuming those should be really
careful.
The remaining two patches provide a more suitable interface to address [2]
and provide a consistent API to query the THP status both for each VMA and
process wide as well. [1]
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181120103515.25280-1-mhocko@kernel.org [2]
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.21.1809241054050.224429@chino.kir.corp.google.com
[3] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181002100531.GC4135@quack2.suse.cz
This patch (of 3):
Even though vma flags exported via /proc/<pid>/smaps are explicitly
documented to be not guaranteed for future compatibility the warning
doesn't go far enough because it doesn't mention semantic changes to those
flags. And they are important as well because these flags are a deep
implementation internal to the MM code and the semantic might change at
any time.
Let's consider two recent examples:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181002100531.GC4135@quack2.suse.cz
: commit e1fb4a086495 "dax: remove VM_MIXEDMAP for fsdax and device dax" has
: removed VM_MIXEDMAP flag from DAX VMAs. Now our testing shows that in the
: mean time certain customer of ours started poking into /proc/<pid>/smaps
: and looks at VMA flags there and if VM_MIXEDMAP is missing among the VMA
: flags, the application just fails to start complaining that DAX support is
: missing in the kernel.
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.21.1809241054050.224429@chino.kir.corp.google.com
: Commit 1860033237d4 ("mm: make PR_SET_THP_DISABLE immediately active")
: introduced a regression in that userspace cannot always determine the set
: of vmas where thp is ineligible.
: Userspace relies on the "nh" flag being emitted as part of /proc/pid/smaps
: to determine if a vma is eligible to be backed by hugepages.
: Previous to this commit, prctl(PR_SET_THP_DISABLE, 1) would cause thp to
: be disabled and emit "nh" as a flag for the corresponding vmas as part of
: /proc/pid/smaps. After the commit, thp is disabled by means of an mm
: flag and "nh" is not emitted.
: This causes smaps parsing libraries to assume a vma is eligible for thp
: and ends up puzzling the user on why its memory is not backed by thp.
In both cases userspace was relying on a semantic of a specific VMA flag.
The primary reason why that happened is a lack of a proper interface.
While this has been worked on and it will be fixed properly, it seems that
our wording could see some refinement and be more vocal about semantic
aspect of these flags as well.

commit d47748e5ae5af6572e520cc9767bbe70c22ea498 upstream.
Current behavior is to automatically disable metacopy if redirect_dir is
not enabled and proceed with the mount.
If "metacopy=on" mount option was given, then this behavior can confuse the
user: no mount failure, yet metacopy is disabled.
This patch makes metacopy=on imply redirect_dir=on.
The converse is also true: turning off full redirect with redirect_dir=
{off|follow|nofollow} will disable metacopy.
If both metacopy=on and redirect_dir={off|follow|nofollow} is specified,
then mount will fail, since there's no way to correctly resolve the
conflict.

commit 578bdaabd015b9b164842c3e8ace9802f38e7ecc upstream.
These are unused, undesired, and have never actually been used by
anybody. The original authors of this code have changed their mind about
its inclusion. While originally proposed for disk encryption on low-end
devices, the idea was discarded [1] in favor of something else before
that could really get going. Therefore, this patch removes Speck.

Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
"In this round, we've tuned f2fs to improve general performance by
serializing block allocation and enhancing discard flows like fstrim
which avoids user IO contention. And we've added fsync_mode=nobarrier
which gives an option to user where it skips issuing cache_flush
commands to underlying flash storage. And there are many bug fixes
related to fuzzed images, revoked atomic writes, quota ops, and minor
direct IO.
Enhancements:
- add fsync_mode=nobarrier which bypasses cache_flush command
- enhance the discarding flow which avoids user IOs and issues in
LBA order
- readahead some encrypted blocks during GC
- enable in-memory inode checksum to verify the blocks if
F2FS_CHECK_FS is set
- enhance nat_bits behavior
- set -o discard by default
- set REQ_RAHEAD to bio in ->readpages
Bug fixes:
- fix a corner case to corrupt atomic_writes revoking flow
- revisit i_gc_rwsem to fix race conditions
- fix some dio behaviors captured by xfstests
- correct handling errors given by quota-related failures
- add many sanity check flows to avoid fuzz test failures
- add more error number propagation to their callers

Currently, percpu memory only exposes allocation and utilization
information via debugfs. This more or less is only really useful for
understanding the fragmentation and allocation information at a per-chunk
level with a few global counters. This is also gated behind a config.
BPF and cgroup, for example, have seen an increase in use causing
increased use of percpu memory. Let's make it easier for someone to
identify how much memory is being used.
This patch adds the "Percpu" stat to meminfo to more easily look up how
much percpu memory is in use. This number includes the cost for all
allocated backing pages and not just insight at the per a unit, per chunk
level. Metadata is excluded. I think excluding metadata is fair because
the backing memory scales with the numbere of cpus and can quickly
outweigh the metadata. It also makes this calculation light.

The documentation for seq_file suggests that it is necessary to be able
to move the iterator to a given offset, however that is not the case.
If the iterator is stored in the private data and is stable from one
read() syscall to the next, it is only necessary to support first/next
interactions. Implementing this in a client is a little clumsy.
- if ->start() is given a pos of zero, it should go to start of
sequence.
- if ->start() is given the name pos that was given to the most recent
next() or start(), it should restore the iterator to state just
before that last call
- if ->start is given another number, it should set the iterator one
beyond the start just before the last ->start or ->next call.
Also, the documentation says that the implementation can interpret the
pos however it likes (other than zero meaning start), but seq_file
increments the pos sometimes which does impose on the implementation.
This patch simplifies the interface for first/next iteration and
simplifies the code, while maintaining complete backward compatability.
Now:
- if ->start() is given a pos of zero, it should return an iterator
placed at the start of the sequence
- if ->start() is given a non-zero pos, it should return the iterator
in the same state it was after the last ->start or ->next.
This is particularly useful for interators which walk the multiple
chains in a hash table, e.g. using rhashtable_walk*. See
fs/gfs2/glock.c and drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/llite/vvp_dev.c
A large part of achieving this is to *always* call ->next after ->show
has successfully stored all of an entry in the buffer. Never just
increment the index instead. Also:
- always pass &m->index to ->start() and ->next(), never a temp
variable
- don't clear ->from when ->count is zero, as ->from is dead when
->count is zero.
Some ->next functions do not increment *pos when they return NULL. To
maintain compatability with this, we still need to increment m->index in
one place, if ->next didn't increment it. Note that such ->next
functions are buggy and should be fixed. A simple demonstration is
dd if=/proc/swaps bs=1000 skip=1
Choose any block size larger than the size of /proc/swaps. This will
always show the whole last line of /proc/swaps.
This patch doesn't work around buggy next() functions for this case.

Pull xfs updates from Darrick Wong:
"This is the second part of the XFS changes for 4.19.
The biggest changes are the removal of buffer heads frm XFS, a massive
reworking of the deferred transaction operations handling code, the
removal of the long defunct barrier/nobarrier mount options, and the
addition of a few more online repair functions.
Summary:
- Use extent maps to track pagecache page status instead of
bufferhead state.
- Refactor pagecache read and write paths to use the new iomap
library functions, which enable us to drop the old bufferhead code
for pagesize == blocksize filesystems.
- Set up parallel per-block-per-page metadata to track subpage
information that was tracked by buffer heads, which enables us to
drop the old bufferhead code for pagesize > blocksize filesystems.
- Tie a deferred ops control structure to a transaction so that we
can take advantage of an upper-level dfops without having to plumb

- Refactor the deferred ops code to track deferred ops as part of the
transaction structure (instead of as a separate data structure) so
that we can simplify the scoping rules around defer_ops.

- Clean up the inode fork structure a bit.
- Check for bad fs summary counter values in the superblock.
- Reduce COW fork lookups during writeback.
- Refactor the deferred ops control structures into the transaction
structure, thereby eliminating the need for transaction users to
handle the deferred ops as a separate data structure.

Previously, once fault injection is on, by default, all kind of faults
will be injected to f2fs, if we want to trigger single or specified
combined type during the test, we need to configure sysfs entry, it will
be a little inconvenient to integrate sysfs configuring into testsuit,
such as xfstest.
So this patch introduces a new mount option 'fault_type' to assist old
option 'fault_injection', with these two mount options, we can specify
any fault rate/type at mount-time.

By default metadata only copy up is disabled. Provide a mount option so
that users can choose one way or other.
Also provide a kernel config and module option to enable/disable metacopy
feature.
metacopy feature requires redirect_dir=on when upper is present.
Otherwise, it requires redirect_dir=follow atleast.
As of now, metacopy does not work with nfs_export=on. So if both
metacopy=on and nfs_export=on then nfs_export is disabled.
