Fix up trivial conflict in arch/arm/mach-mx25/clock.c

On VIVT ARM, when we have multiple shared mappings of the same file
in the same MM, we need to ensure that we have coherency across all
copies. We do this via make_coherent() by making the pages
uncacheable.
This used to work fine, until we allowed highmem with highpte - we
now have a page table which is mapped as required, and is not available
for modification via update_mmu_cache().
Ralf Beache suggested getting rid of the PTE value passed to
update_mmu_cache():
On MIPS update_mmu_cache() calls __update_tlb() which walks pagetables
to construct a pointer to the pte again. Passing a pte_t * is much
more elegant. Maybe we might even replace the pte argument with the
pte_t?
Ben Herrenschmidt would also like the pte pointer for PowerPC:
Passing the ptep in there is exactly what I want. I want that
-instead- of the PTE value, because I have issue on some ppc cases,
for I$/D$ coherency, where set_pte_at() may decide to mask out the
_PAGE_EXEC.
So, pass in the mapped page table pointer into update_mmu_cache(), and
remove the PTE value, updating all implementations and call sites to
suit.
Includes a fix from Stephen Rothwell:

If a user asks for a hugepage pool resize but specified a large number,
the machine can begin trashing. In response, they might hit ctrl-c but
signals are ignored and the pool resize continues until it fails an
allocation. This can take a considerable amount of time so this patch
aborts a pool resize if a signal is pending.

When the owner of a mapping fails COW because a child process is holding a
reference, the children VMAs are walked and the page is unmapped. The
i_mmap_lock is taken for the unmapping of the page but not the walking of
the prio_tree. In theory, that tree could be changing if the lock is not
held. This patch takes the i_mmap_lock properly for the duration of the
prio_tree walk.

fails
hugetlb_fault() takes the mm->page_table_lock spinlock then calls
hugetlb_cow(). If the alloc_huge_page() in hugetlb_cow() fails due to an
insufficient huge page pool it calls unmap_ref_private() with the
mm->page_table_lock held. unmap_ref_private() then calls
unmap_hugepage_range() which tries to acquire the mm->page_table_lock.

This can be fixed by dropping the mm->page_table_lock around the call to
unmap_ref_private() if alloc_huge_page() fails, its dropped right below in
the normal path anyway. However, earlier in the that function, it's also
possible to call into the page allocator with the same spinlock held.
What this patch does is drop the spinlock before the page allocator is
potentially entered. The check for page allocation failure can be made
without the page_table_lock as well as the copy of the huge page. Even if
the PTE changed while the spinlock was held, the consequence is that a
huge page is copied unnecessarily. This resolves both the double taking
of the lock and sleeping with the spinlock held.

Objects passed to NODEMASK_ALLOC() are relatively small in size and are
backed by slab caches that are not of large order, traditionally never
greater than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER.
Thus, using GFP_KERNEL for these allocations on large machines when
CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT > 8 will cause the page allocator to loop endlessly in
the allocation attempt, each time invoking both direct reclaim or the oom
killer.
This is of particular interest when using NODEMASK_ALLOC() from a
mempolicy context (either directly in mm/mempolicy.c or the mempolicy
constrained hugetlb allocations) since the oom killer always kills current
when allocations are constrained by mempolicies. So for all present use
cases in the kernel, current would end up being oom killed when direct
reclaim fails. That would allow the NODEMASK_ALLOC() to succeed but
current would have sacrificed itself upon returning.
This patch adds gfp flags to NODEMASK_ALLOC() to pass to kmalloc() on
CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT > 8; this parameter is a nop on other configurations.
All current use cases either directly from hugetlb code or indirectly via
NODEMASK_SCRATCH() union __GFP_NORETRY to avoid direct reclaim and the oom
killer when the slab allocator needs to allocate additional pages.
The side-effect of this change is that all current use cases of either
NODEMASK_ALLOC() or NODEMASK_SCRATCH() need appropriate -ENOMEM handling
when the allocation fails (never for CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT <= 8). All
current use cases were audited and do have appropriate error handling at
this time.

Register per node hstate sysfs attributes only for nodes with memory.
Global replacement of 'all online nodes" with "all nodes with memory" in
mm/hugetlb.c. Suggested by David Rientjes.
A subsequent patch will handle adding/removing of per node hstate sysfs
attributes when nodes transition to/from memoryless state via memory
hotplug.
NOTE: this patch has not been tested with memoryless nodes.

Add the per huge page size control/query attributes to the per node
sysdevs:
/sys/devices/system/node/node<ID>/hugepages/hugepages-<size>/
nr_hugepages - r/w
free_huge_pages - r/o
surplus_huge_pages - r/o
The patch attempts to re-use/share as much of the existing global hstate
attribute initialization and handling, and the "nodes_allowed" constraint
processing as possible.
Calling set_max_huge_pages() with no node indicates a change to global
hstate parameters. In this case, any non-default task mempolicy will be
used to generate the nodes_allowed mask. A valid node id indicates an
update to that node's hstate parameters, and the count argument specifies
the target count for the specified node. From this info, we compute the
target global count for the hstate and construct a nodes_allowed node mask
contain only the specified node.
Setting the node specific nr_hugepages via the per node attribute
effectively ignores any task mempolicy or cpuset constraints.

This patch derives a "nodes_allowed" node mask from the numa mempolicy of
the task modifying the number of persistent huge pages to control the
allocation, freeing and adjusting of surplus huge pages when the pool page
count is modified via the new sysctl or sysfs attribute
"nr_hugepages_mempolicy". The nodes_allowed mask is derived as follows:
* For "default" [NULL] task mempolicy, a NULL nodemask_t pointer
is produced. This will cause the hugetlb subsystem to use
node_online_map as the "nodes_allowed". This preserves the
behavior before this patch.
* For "preferred" mempolicy, including explicit local allocation,
a nodemask with the single preferred node will be produced.
"local" policy will NOT track any internode migrations of the
task adjusting nr_hugepages.
* For "bind" and "interleave" policy, the mempolicy's nodemask
will be used.
* Other than to inform the construction of the nodes_allowed node
mask, the actual mempolicy mode is ignored. That is, all modes
behave like interleave over the resulting nodes_allowed mask
with no "fallback".
See the updated documentation [next patch] for more information
about the implications of this patch.
Examples:
Starting with:
Node 0 HugePages_Total: 0
Node 1 HugePages_Total: 0
Node 2 HugePages_Total: 0
Node 3 HugePages_Total: 0
Default behavior [with or without this patch] balances persistent
hugepage allocation across nodes [with sufficient contiguous memory]:
sysctl vm.nr_hugepages[_mempolicy]=32
yields:
Node 0 HugePages_Total: 8
Node 1 HugePages_Total: 8
Node 2 HugePages_Total: 8
Node 3 HugePages_Total: 8
Of course, we only have nr_hugepages_mempolicy with the patch,
but with default mempolicy, nr_hugepages_mempolicy behaves the
same as nr_hugepages.
Applying mempolicy--e.g., with numactl [using '-m' a.k.a.
'--membind' because it allows multiple nodes to be specified
and it's easy to type]--we can allocate huge pages on
individual nodes or sets of nodes. So, starting from the
condition above, with 8 huge pages per node, add 8 more to
node 2 using:
numactl -m 2 sysctl vm.nr_hugepages_mempolicy=40
This yields:
Node 0 HugePages_Total: 8
Node 1 HugePages_Total: 8
Node 2 HugePages_Total: 16
Node 3 HugePages_Total: 8
The incremental 8 huge pages were restricted to node 2 by the
specified mempolicy.
Similarly, we can use mempolicy to free persistent huge pages
from specified nodes:
numactl -m 0,1 sysctl vm.nr_hugepages_mempolicy=32
yields:
Node 0 HugePages_Total: 4
Node 1 HugePages_Total: 4
Node 2 HugePages_Total: 16
Node 3 HugePages_Total: 8
The 8 huge pages freed were balanced over nodes 0 and 1.

In preparation for constraining huge page allocation and freeing by the
controlling task's numa mempolicy, add a "nodes_allowed" nodemask pointer
to the allocate, free and surplus adjustment functions. For now, pass
NULL to indicate default behavior--i.e., use node_online_map. A
subsqeuent patch will derive a non-default mask from the controlling
task's numa mempolicy.
Note that this method of updating the global hstate nr_hugepages under the
constraint of a nodemask simplifies keeping the global state
consistent--especially the number of persistent and surplus pages relative
to reservations and overcommit limits. There are undoubtedly other ways
to do this, but this works for both interfaces: mempolicy and per node
attributes.

Modify the hstate_next_node* functions to allow them to be called to
obtain the "start_nid". Then, whereas prior to this patch we
unconditionally called hstate_next_node_to_{alloc|free}(), whether or not
we successfully allocated/freed a huge page on the node, now we only call
these functions on failure to alloc/free to advance to next allowed node.
Factor out the next_node_allowed() function to handle wrap at end of
node_online_map. In this version, the allowed nodes include all of the
online nodes.

follow_hugetlb_page() shouldn't be guessing about the coredump case
either: pass the foll_flags down to it, instead of just the write bit.
Remove that obscure huge_zeropage_ok() test. The decision is easy,
though unlike the non-huge case - here vm_ops->fault is always set.
But we know that a fault would serve up zeroes, unless there's
already a hugetlbfs pagecache page to back the range.
(Alternatively, since hugetlb pages aren't swapped out under pressure,
you could save more dump space by arguing that a page not yet faulted
into this process cannot be relevant to the dump; but that would be
more surprising.)

huge-pages. I asked about this on linux-mm and linux-numa, cc'ing the
usual huge page suspects.
Mel Gorman responded:
I strongly suspect that the same node being used until allocation
failure instead of round-robin is an oversight and not deliberate
at all. It appears to be a side-effect of a fix made way back in
commit 63b4613c3f0d4b724ba259dc6c201bb68b884e1a ["hugetlb: fix
hugepage allocation with memoryless nodes"]. Prior to that patch
it looked like allocations would always round-robin even when
allocation was successful.
This patch--factored out of my "hugetlb mempolicy" series--moves the
advance of the hstate next node from which to allocate up before the test
for success of the attempted allocation.
Note that alloc_bootmem_huge_page() is only used for order > MAX_ORDER
huge pages.
I'll post a separate patch for mainline/stable, as the above mentioned
"balance freeing" series renamed the next node to alloc function.

Use the [modified] free_pool_huge_page() function to return unused
surplus pages. This will help keep huge pages balanced across nodes
between freeing of unused surplus pages and freeing of persistent huge
pages [from set_max_huge_pages] by using the same node id "cursor". It
also eliminates some code duplication.

Free huges pages from nodes in round robin fashion in an attempt to keep
[persistent a.k.a static] hugepages balanced across nodes
New function free_pool_huge_page() is modeled on and performs roughly the
inverse of alloc_fresh_huge_page(). Replaces dequeue_huge_page() which
now has no callers, so this patch removes it.
Helper function hstate_next_node_to_free() uses new hstate member
next_to_free_nid to distribute "frees" across all nodes with huge pages.

As reported in Red Hat bz #509671, i_blocks for files on hugetlbfs get
accounting wrong when doing something like:
$ > foo
$ date > foo
date: write error: Invalid argument
$ /usr/bin/stat foo
File: `foo'
Size: 0 Blocks: 18446744073709547520 IO Block: 2097152 regular
...
This is because hugetlb_unreserve_pages() is unconditionally removing
blocks_per_huge_page(h) on each call rather than using the freed amount.
If there were 0 blocks, it goes negative, resulting in the above.
This is a regression from commit a5516438959d90b071ff0a484ce4f3f523dc3152
("hugetlb: modular state for hugetlb page size")
which did:
- inode->i_blocks -= BLOCKS_PER_HUGEPAGE * freed;
+ inode->i_blocks -= blocks_per_huge_page(h);
so just put back the freed multiplier, and it's all happy again.

A series of patches to enhance the /proc/pagemap interface and to add a
userspace executable which can be used to present the pagemap data.
Export 10 more flags to end users (and more for kernel developers):
11. KPF_MMAP (pseudo flag) memory mapped page
12. KPF_ANON (pseudo flag) memory mapped page (anonymous)
13. KPF_SWAPCACHE page is in swap cache
14. KPF_SWAPBACKED page is swap/RAM backed
15. KPF_COMPOUND_HEAD (*)
16. KPF_COMPOUND_TAIL (*)
17. KPF_HUGE hugeTLB pages
18. KPF_UNEVICTABLE page is in the unevictable LRU list
19. KPF_HWPOISON hardware detected corruption
20. KPF_NOPAGE (pseudo flag) no page frame at the address
(*) For compound pages, exporting _both_ head/tail info enables
users to tell where a compound page starts/ends, and its order.

fast paths
num_online_nodes() is called in a number of places but most often by the
page allocator when deciding whether the zonelist needs to be filtered
based on cpusets or the zonelist cache. This is actually a heavy function
and touches a number of cache lines.
This patch stores the number of online nodes at boot time and updates the
value when nodes get onlined and offlined. The value is then used in a
number of important paths in place of num_online_nodes().

Callers of alloc_pages_node() can optionally specify -1 as a node to mean
"allocate from the current node". However, a number of the callers in
fast paths know for a fact their node is valid. To avoid a comparison and
branch, this patch adds alloc_pages_exact_node() that only checks the nid
with VM_BUG_ON(). Callers that know their node is valid are then

hugetlbfs
Addresses http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13302
hugetlbfs reserves huge pages but does not fault them at mmap() time to
ensure that future faults succeed. The reservation behaviour differs
depending on whether the mapping was mapped MAP_SHARED or MAP_PRIVATE.
For MAP_SHARED mappings, hugepages are reserved when mmap() is first
called and are tracked based on information associated with the inode.
Other processes mapping MAP_SHARED use the same reservation. MAP_PRIVATE
track the reservations based on the VMA created as part of the mmap()
operation. Each process mapping MAP_PRIVATE must make its own
reservation.
hugetlbfs currently checks if a VMA is MAP_SHARED with the VM_SHARED flag
and not VM_MAYSHARE. For file-backed mappings, such as hugetlbfs,
VM_SHARED is set only if the mapping is MAP_SHARED and the file was opened
read-write. If a shared memory mapping was mapped shared-read-write for
populating of data and mapped shared-read-only by other processes, then
hugetlbfs would account for the mapping as if it was MAP_PRIVATE. This
causes processes to fail to map the file MAP_SHARED even though it should
succeed as the reservation is there.
This patch alters mm/hugetlb.c and replaces VM_SHARED with VM_MAYSHARE
when the intent of the code was to check whether the VMA was mapped
MAP_SHARED or MAP_PRIVATE.

Commit 5a6fe125950676015f5108fb71b2a67441755003 brought hugetlbfs more
in line with the core VM by obeying VM_NORESERVE and not reserving
hugepages for both shared and private mappings when [SHM|MAP]_NORESERVE
are specified. However, it is still taking filesystem quota
unconditionally.
At fault time, if there are no reserves and attempt is made to allocate
the page and account for filesystem quota. If either fail, the fault
fails. The impact is that quota is getting accounted for twice. This
patch partially reverts 5a6fe125950676015f5108fb71b2a67441755003. To
help prevent this mistake happening again, it improves the documentation
of hugetlb_reserve_pages()

When overcommit is disabled, the core VM accounts for pages used by anonymous
shared, private mappings and special mappings. It keeps track of VMAs that
should be accounted for with VM_ACCOUNT and VMAs that never had a reserve
with VM_NORESERVE.
Overcommit for hugetlbfs is much riskier than overcommit for base pages
due to contiguity requirements. It avoids overcommiting on both shared and
private mappings using reservation counters that are checked and updated
during mmap(). This ensures (within limits) that hugepages exist in the
future when faults occurs or it is too easy to applications to be SIGKILLed.
As hugetlbfs makes its own reservations of a different unit to the base page
size, VM_ACCOUNT should never be set. Even if the units were correct, we would
double account for the usage in the core VM and hugetlbfs. VM_NORESERVE may
be set because an application can request no reserves be made for hugetlbfs
at the risk of getting killed later.
With commit fc8744adc870a8d4366908221508bb113d8b72ee, VM_NORESERVE and
VM_ACCOUNT are getting unconditionally set for hugetlbfs-backed mappings. This
breaks the accounting for both the core VM and hugetlbfs, can trigger an
OOM storm when hugepage pools are too small lockups and corrupted counters
otherwise are used. This patch brings hugetlbfs more in line with how the
core VM treats VM_NORESERVE but prevents VM_ACCOUNT being set.

At this point we already know that 'addr' is not NULL so get rid of
redundant 'if'. Probably gcc eliminate it by optimization pass.

The KernelPageSize entry in /proc/pid/smaps is the pagesize used by the
kernel to back a VMA. This matches the size used by the MMU in the
majority of cases. However, one counter-example occurs on PPC64 kernels
whereby a kernel using 64K as a base pagesize may still use 4K pages for
the MMU on older processor. To distinguish, this patch reports
MMUPageSize as the pagesize used by the MMU in /proc/pid/smaps.
