This patch exports several definitions that used to live under
include/net/netfilter/nf_nat.h. These definitions, although not
exported, have been used by iptables and other userspace
applications like miniupnpd since long time. Basically, these
userspace tools included some internal definition of the required

Add V2 of the LED driver for a single timer channel for the TPU hardware
block commonly found in Renesas SoCs.
The driver has been written with optimal Power Management in mind, so to
save power the LED is driven as a regular GPIO pin in case of maximum
brightness and power off which allows the TPU hardware to be idle and
which in turn allows the clocks to be stopped and the power domain to be
turned off transparently.
Any other brightness level requires use of the TPU hardware in PWM mode.
TPU hardware device clocks and power are managed through Runtime PM.
System suspend and resume is known to be working - during suspend the LED
is set to off by the generic LED code.
The TPU hardware timer is equipeed with a 16-bit counter together with an
up-to-divide-by-64 prescaler which makes the hardware suitable for
brightness control. Hardware blink is unsupported.
The LED PWM waveform has been verified with a Fluke 123 Scope meter on a
sh7372 Mackerel board. Tested with experimental sh7372 A3SP power domain
patches. Platform device bind/unbind tested ok.
V2 has been tested on the DS2 LED of the sh73a0-based AG5EVM.

The regulator support in the l4f00242t03 is very non-idiomatic. Rather
than requesting the regulators based on the device name and the supply
names used by the device the driver requires boards to pass system
specific supply names around through platform data. The driver also
conditionally requests the regulators based on this platform data, adding
unneeded conditional code to the driver.
Fix this by removing the platform data and converting to the standard
idiom, also updating all in tree users of the driver. As no datasheet
appears to be available for the LCD I'm guessing the names for the
supplies based on the existing users and I've no ability to do anything
more than compile test.
The use of regulator_set_voltage() in the driver is also problematic,
since fixed voltages are required the expectation would be that the
voltages would be fixed in the constraints set by the machines rather than
manually configured by the driver, but is less problematic.

The /proc/vmallocinfo shows information about vmalloc allocations in
vmlist that is a linklist of vm_struct. It, however, may access pages
field of vm_struct where a page was not allocated. This results in a null
pointer access and leads to a kernel panic.
Why this happens: In __vmalloc_node_range() called from vmalloc(), newly
allocated vm_struct is added to vmlist at __get_vm_area_node() and then,
some fields of vm_struct such as nr_pages and pages are set at
__vmalloc_area_node(). In other words, it is added to vmlist before it is
fully initialized. At the same time, when the /proc/vmallocinfo is read,
it accesses the pages field of vm_struct according to the nr_pages field
at show_numa_info(). Thus, a null pointer access happens.
The patch adds the newly allocated vm_struct to the vmlist *after* it is
fully initialized. So, it can avoid accessing the pages field with
unallocated page when show_numa_info() is called.

When direct reclaim encounters a dirty page, it gets recycled around the
LRU for another cycle. This patch marks the page PageReclaim similar to
deactivate_page() so that the page gets reclaimed almost immediately after
the page gets cleaned. This is to avoid reclaiming clean pages that are
younger than a dirty page encountered at the end of the LRU that might
have been something like a use-once page.

Testing from the XFS folk revealed that there is still too much I/O from
the end of the LRU in kswapd. Previously it was considered acceptable by
VM people for a small number of pages to be written back from reclaim with
testing generally showing about 0.3% of pages reclaimed were written back
(higher if memory was low). That writing back a small number of pages is
ok has been heavily disputed for quite some time and Dave Chinner
explained it well;
It doesn't have to be a very high number to be a problem. IO
is orders of magnitude slower than the CPU time it takes to
flush a page, so the cost of making a bad flush decision is
very high. And single page writeback from the LRU is almost
always a bad flush decision.
To complicate matters, filesystems respond very differently to requests
from reclaim according to Christoph Hellwig;
xfs tries to write it back if the requester is kswapd
ext4 ignores the request if it's a delayed allocation
btrfs ignores the request
As a result, each filesystem has different performance characteristics
when under memory pressure and there are many pages being dirtied. In
some cases, the request is ignored entirely so the VM cannot depend on the
IO being dispatched.
The objective of this series is to reduce writing of filesystem-backed
pages from reclaim, play nicely with writeback that is already in progress
and throttle reclaim appropriately when writeback pages are encountered.
The assumption is that the flushers will always write pages faster than if
reclaim issues the IO.
A secondary goal is to avoid the problem whereby direct reclaim splices
two potentially deep call stacks together.
There is a potential new problem as reclaim has less control over how long
before a page in a particularly zone or container is cleaned and direct
reclaimers depend on kswapd or flusher threads to do the necessary work.
However, as filesystems sometimes ignore direct reclaim requests already,
it is not expected to be a serious issue.
Patch 1 disables writeback of filesystem pages from direct reclaim
entirely. Anonymous pages are still written.
Patch 2 removes dead code in lumpy reclaim as it is no longer able
to synchronously write pages. This hurts lumpy reclaim but
there is an expectation that compaction is used for hugepage
allocations these days and lumpy reclaim's days are numbered.
Patches 3-4 add warnings to XFS and ext4 if called from
direct reclaim. With patch 1, this "never happens" and is
intended to catch regressions in this logic in the future.
Patch 5 disables writeback of filesystem pages from kswapd unless
the priority is raised to the point where kswapd is considered
to be in trouble.
Patch 6 throttles reclaimers if too many dirty pages are being
encountered and the zones or backing devices are congested.
Patch 7 invalidates dirty pages found at the end of the LRU so they
are reclaimed quickly after being written back rather than
waiting for a reclaimer to find them
I consider this series to be orthogonal to the writeback work but it is
worth noting that the writeback work affects the viability of patch 8 in
particular.
I tested this on ext4 and xfs using fs_mark, a simple writeback test based
on dd and a micro benchmark that does a streaming write to a large mapping
(exercises use-once LRU logic) followed by streaming writes to a mix of
anonymous and file-backed mappings. The command line for fs_mark when
botted with 512M looked something like
./fs_mark -d /tmp/fsmark-2676 -D 100 -N 150 -n 150 -L 25 -t 1 -S0 -s 10485760
The number of files was adjusted depending on the amount of available
memory so that the files created was about 3xRAM. For multiple threads,
the -d switch is specified multiple times.
The test machine is x86-64 with an older generation of AMD processor with
4 cores. The underlying storage was 4 disks configured as RAID-0 as this
was the best configuration of storage I had available. Swap is on a
separate disk. Dirty ratio was tuned to 40% instead of the default of
20%.
Testing was run with and without monitors to both verify that the patches
were operating as expected and that any performance gain was real and not
due to interference from monitors.

Up until 512-4X, the FSmark improvements were statistically significant.
For the 4X and 16X tests the results were within standard deviations but
just barely. The time to completion for all tests is improved which is an
important result. In general, kswapd efficiency is not affected by
skipping dirty pages.

All FSMark tests up to 16X had statistically significant improvements.
For the most part, tests are completing faster with the exception of the
streaming writes to a mixture of anonymous and file-backed mappings which
were slower in two cases
In the cases where the mmap-strm tests were slower, there was more
swapping due to dirty pages being skipped. The number of additional pages
swapped is almost identical to the fewer number of pages written from
reclaim. In other words, roughly the same number of pages were reclaimed
but swapping was slower. As the test is a bit unrealistic and stresses
memory heavily, the small shift is acceptable.

Unlike the other tests, the fsmark results are not statistically
significant but the min and max times are both improved and for the most
part, tests completed faster.
There are other indications that this is an improvement as well. For
example, in the vast majority of cases, there were fewer pages scanned by
direct reclaim implying in many cases that stalls due to direct reclaim
are reduced. KSwapd is scanning more due to skipping dirty pages which is
unfortunate but the CPU usage is still acceptable
In an earlier set of tests, I used blktrace and in almost all cases
throughput throughout the entire test was higher. However, I ended up
discarding those results as recording blktrace data was too heavy for my
liking.
On a laptop, I plugged in a USB stick and ran a similar tests of tests
using it as backing storage. A desktop environment was running and for
the entire duration of the tests, firefox and gnome terminal were
launching and exiting to vaguely simulate a user.

The mmap-strm results were hurt because firefox launching had a tendency
to push the test out of memory. On the postive side, firefox launched
marginally faster with the patches applied. Time to completion for many
tests was faster but more importantly - the "Avg wait" time as measured by
iostat was far lower implying the system would be more responsive. It was
also the case that "Avg wait ms" on the root filesystem was lower. I
tested it manually and while the system felt slightly more responsive
while copying data to a USB stick, it was marginal enough that it could be
my imagination.
This patch: do not writeback filesystem pages in direct reclaim.
When kswapd is failing to keep zones above the min watermark, a process
will enter direct reclaim in the same manner kswapd does. If a dirty page
is encountered during the scan, this page is written to backing storage
using mapping->writepage.
This causes two problems. First, it can result in very deep call stacks,
particularly if the target storage or filesystem are complex. Some
filesystems ignore write requests from direct reclaim as a result. The
second is that a single-page flush is inefficient in terms of IO. While
there is an expectation that the elevator will merge requests, this does
not always happen. Quoting Christoph Hellwig;
The elevator has a relatively small window it can operate on,
and can never fix up a bad large scale writeback pattern.
This patch prevents direct reclaim writing back filesystem pages by
checking if current is kswapd. Anonymous pages are still written to swap
as there is not the equivalent of a flusher thread for anonymous pages.
If the dirty pages cannot be written back, they are placed back on the LRU
lists. There is now a direct dependency on dirty page balancing to
prevent too many pages in the system being dirtied which would prevent
reclaim making forward progress.

Some kernel components pin user space memory (infiniband and perf) (by
increasing the page count) and account that memory as "mlocked".
The difference between mlocking and pinning is:
A. mlocked pages are marked with PG_mlocked and are exempt from
swapping. Page migration may move them around though.
They are kept on a special LRU list.
B. Pinned pages cannot be moved because something needs to
directly access physical memory. They may not be on any
LRU list.
I recently saw an mlockalled process where mm->locked_vm became
bigger than the virtual size of the process (!) because some
memory was accounted for twice:
Once when the page was mlocked and once when the Infiniband
layer increased the refcount because it needt to pin the RDMA
memory.
This patch introduces a separate counter for pinned pages and
accounts them seperately.

test_set_oom_score_adj() was introduced in 72788c385604 ("oom: replace
PF_OOM_ORIGIN with toggling oom_score_adj") to temporarily elevate
current's oom_score_adj for ksm and swapoff without requiring an
additional per-process flag.
Using that function to both set oom_score_adj to OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX and
then reinstate the previous value is racy since it's possible that
userspace can set the value to something else itself before the old value
is reinstated. That results in userspace setting current's oom_score_adj
to a different value and then the kernel immediately setting it back to
its previous value without notification.
To fix this, a new compare_swap_oom_score_adj() function is introduced
with the same semantics as the compare and swap CAS instruction, or
CMPXCHG on x86. It is used to reinstate the previous value of
oom_score_adj if and only if the present value is the same as the old
value.

This removes mm->oom_disable_count entirely since it's unnecessary and
currently buggy. The counter was intended to be per-process but it's
currently decremented in the exit path for each thread that exits, causing
it to underflow.
The count was originally intended to prevent oom killing threads that
share memory with threads that cannot be killed since it doesn't lead to
future memory freeing. The counter could be fixed to represent all
threads sharing the same mm, but it's better to remove the count since:
- it is possible that the OOM_DISABLE thread sharing memory with the
victim is waiting on that thread to exit and will actually cause
future memory freeing, and
- there is no guarantee that a thread is disabled from oom killing just
because another thread sharing its mm is oom disabled.

In __zone_reclaim case, we don't want to shrink mapped page. Nonetheless,
we have isolated mapped page and re-add it into LRU's head. It's
unnecessary CPU overhead and makes LRU churning.
Of course, when we isolate the page, the page might be mapped but when we
try to migrate the page, the page would be not mapped. So it could be
migrated. But race is rare and although it happens, it's no big deal.

In async mode, compaction doesn't migrate dirty or writeback pages. So,
it's meaningless to pick the page and re-add it to lru list.
Of course, when we isolate the page in compaction, the page might be dirty
or writeback but when we try to migrate the page, the page would be not

isolate and migration cycle is much faster than writeout.

The basic idea behind cross memory attach is to allow MPI programs doing
intra-node communication to do a single copy of the message rather than a
double copy of the message via shared memory.
The following patch attempts to achieve this by allowing a destination
process, given an address and size from a source process, to copy memory
directly from the source process into its own address space via a system
call. There is also a symmetrical ability to copy from the current
process's address space into a destination process's address space.
- Use of /proc/pid/mem has been considered, but there are issues with
using it:
- Does not allow for specifying iovecs for both src and dest, assuming
preadv or pwritev was implemented either the area read from or
written to would need to be contiguous.
- Currently mem_read allows only processes who are currently
ptrace'ing the target and are still able to ptrace the target to read
from the target. This check could possibly be moved to the open call,
but its not clear exactly what race this restriction is stopping
(reason appears to have been lost)
- Having to send the fd of /proc/self/mem via SCM_RIGHTS on unix
domain socket is a bit ugly from a userspace point of view,
especially when you may have hundreds if not (eventually) thousands
of processes that all need to do this with each other
- Doesn't allow for some future use of the interface we would like to
consider adding in the future (see below)
- Interestingly reading from /proc/pid/mem currently actually
involves two copies! (But this could be fixed pretty easily)
As mentioned previously use of vmsplice instead was considered, but has
problems. Since you need the reader and writer working co-operatively if
the pipe is not drained then you block. Which requires some wrapping to
do non blocking on the send side or polling on the receive. In all to all
communication it requires ordering otherwise you can deadlock. And in the
example of many MPI tasks writing to one MPI task vmsplice serialises the
copying.
There are some cases of MPI collectives where even a single copy interface
does not get us the performance gain we could. For example in an
MPI_Reduce rather than copy the data from the source we would like to
instead use it directly in a mathops (say the reduce is doing a sum) as
this would save us doing a copy. We don't need to keep a copy of the data
from the source. I haven't implemented this, but I think this interface
could in the future do all this through the use of the flags - eg could
specify the math operation and type and the kernel rather than just
copying the data would apply the specified operation between the source
and destination and store it in the destination.
Although we don't have a "second user" of the interface (though I've had
some nibbles from people who may be interested in using it for intra
process messaging which is not MPI). This interface is something which
hardware vendors are already doing for their custom drivers to implement
fast local communication. And so in addition to this being useful for
OpenMPI it would mean the driver maintainers don't have to fix things up
when the mm changes.
There was some discussion about how much faster a true zero copy would
go. Here's a link back to the email with some testing I did on that:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=130105930902915&w=2
There is a basic man page for the proposed interface here:
http://ozlabs.org/~cyeoh/cma/process_vm_readv.txt
This has been implemented for x86 and powerpc, other architecture should
mainly (I think) just need to add syscall numbers for the process_vm_readv
and process_vm_writev. There are 32 bit compatibility versions for
64-bit kernels.
For arch maintainers there are some simple tests to be able to quickly
verify that the syscalls are working correctly here:

that really need it, due to its size and number of children
includes. This targets just reversing that include.
Add in the basic "struct module" since that is all we really need
to ensure things compile. In theory, b687380 should have added the

module.h everywhere presence masked this from showing up. So give
it the "struct module" as well.
As for the C files, irqdesc.c is only using THIS_MODULE, so it
does not need module.h - give it export.h instead. The C file
irq/manage.c is now (as of b687380) using try_module_get and
module_put and so it needs module.h (which it already has).
Also convert the irq_alloc_descs variants to macros, since all
they really do is is call the __irq_alloc_descs primitive.
This avoids including export.h and no debug info is lost.

These two small inlines make calls to try_module_get() and
module_put() which would force us to keep module.h present
within yet another common include header. We can avoid this
by turning them into macros. The hci_dev_hold construct
is patterned off of raw_spin_trylock_irqsave() in spinlock.h

This file was using the module get/put functions in two simple inline
functions. But module_get/put were only within scope because of
the implicit presence of module.h being everywhere.
Rather than add module.h to another file in include/ -- which is
exactly the thing we are trying to avoid, simply convert these
one-line functions into a define, as per what was done for the
device_schedule_callback() in commit 523ded71de0c5e669733.

The implicit presence of module.h everywhere meant that this header
also was getting moduleparam.h which defines struct kernel_param.
Since it only needs to know that kernel_param is a struct, call that
out instead of adding an include of moduleparam.h -- to get rid of this:
include/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack.h:316: warning: 'struct kernel_param' declared inside parameter list
include/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack.h:316: warning: its scope is only this definition or declaration, which is probably not what you want

The <linux/module.h> pretty much brings in the kitchen sink along
with it, so it should be avoided wherever reasonably possible in
terms of being included from other commonly used <linux/something.h>
files, as it results in a measureable increase on compile times.
The worst culprit was probably device.h since it is used everywhere.
This file also had an implicit dependency/usage of mutex.h which was
masked by module.h, and is also fixed here at the same time.
There are over a dozen other headers that simply declare the
struct instead of pulling in the whole file, so follow their lead
and simply make it a few more.
Most of the implicit dependencies on module.h being present by
these headers pulling it in have been now weeded out, so we can
finally make this change with hopefully minimal breakage.

The original implementations reference THIS_MODULE in an inline.
We could include <linux/export.h>, but it is better to avoid chaining.
Fortunately someone else already thought of this, and made a similar
inline into a #define in <linux/device.h> for device_schedule_callback(),
[see commit 523ded71de0] so follow that precedent here.
Also bubble up any __must_check that were used on the prev. wrapper inline
functions up one to the real __register functions, to preserve any prev.
sanity checks that were used in those instances.

The <linux/crypto.h> (which is in turn in common headers
like tcp.h) wants to use module_name() in an inline fcn.
But having all of <linux/module.h> along for the ride is
overkill and slows down compiles by a measureable amount,
since it in turn includes lots of headers.
Since the inline is never used anywhere in the kernel[1],
we can just remove it, and then also remove the module.h
include as well.
In all the many crypto modules, there were some relying on
crypto.h including module.h -- for them we now explicitly
call out module.h for inclusion.
[1] git grep shows some staging drivers also define the same
static inline, but they also never ever use it.

Once we clean up the implicit presence of module.h (and all its
sub-includes), we'll see an implicit dependency on page.h for
the PAGE_SIZE define. So fix it in advance.
