x86/mm: Rework lazy TLB mode and TLB freshness tracking
x86's lazy TLB mode used to be fairly weak -- it would switch to
init_mm the first time it tried to flush a lazy TLB. This meant an
unnecessary CR3 write and, if the flush was remote, an unnecessary
IPI.
Rewrite it entirely. When we enter lazy mode, we simply remove the
CPU from mm_cpumask. This means that we need a way to figure out
whether we've missed a flush when we switch back out of lazy mode.
I use the tlb_gen machinery to track whether a context is up to
date.
Note to reviewers: this patch, my itself, looks a bit odd. I'm
using an array of length 1 containing (ctx_id, tlb_gen) rather than
just storing tlb_gen, and making it at array isn't necessary yet.
I'm doing this because the next few patches add PCID support, and,
with PCID, we need ctx_id, and the array will end up with a length
greater than 1. Making it an array now means that there will be
less churn and therefore less stress on your eyeballs.
NB: This is dubious but, AFAICT, still correct on Xen and UV.
xen_exit_mmap() uses mm_cpumask() for nefarious purposes and this
patch changes the way that mm_cpumask() works. This should be okay,
since Xen *also* iterates all online CPUs to find all the CPUs it
needs to twiddle.
The UV tlbflush code is rather dated and should be changed.
Here are some benchmark results, done on a Skylake laptop at 2.3 GHz
(turbo off, intel_pstate requesting max performance) under KVM with
the guest using idle=poll (to avoid artifacts when bouncing between
CPUs). I haven't done any real statistics here -- I just ran them
in a loop and picked the fastest results that didn't look like
outliers. Unpatched means commit a4eb8b993554, so all the
bookkeeping overhead is gone.
MADV_DONTNEED; touch the page; switch CPUs using sched_setaffinity. In
an unpatched kernel, MADV_DONTNEED will send an IPI to the previous CPU.
This is intended to be a nearly worst-case test.

unpatched: 21.6µs
Vitaly's pthread_mmap microbenchmark with 8 threads (on four cores),
nrounds = 100, 256M data
patched: 1.1 seconds or so
unpatched: 1.9 seconds or so
The sleepup on Vitaly's test appearss to be because it spends a lot
of time blocked on mmap_sem, and this patch avoids sending IPIs to
blocked CPUs.

x86/mm: Track the TLB's tlb_gen and update the flushing algorithm
There are two kernel features that would benefit from tracking
how up-to-date each CPU's TLB is in the case where IPIs aren't keeping
it up to date in real time:
- Lazy mm switching currently works by switching to init_mm when
it would otherwise flush. This is wasteful: there isn't fundamentally
any need to update CR3 at all when going lazy or when returning from
lazy mode, nor is there any need to receive flush IPIs at all. Instead,
we should just stop trying to keep the TLB coherent when we go lazy and,
when unlazying, check whether we missed any flushes.
- PCID will let us keep recent user contexts alive in the TLB. If we
start doing this, we need a way to decide whether those contexts are
up to date.
On some paravirt systems, remote TLBs can be flushed without IPIs.
This won't update the target CPUs' tlb_gens, which may cause
unnecessary local flushes later on. We can address this if it becomes
a problem by carefully updating the target CPU's tlb_gen directly.
By itself, this patch is a very minor optimization that avoids
unnecessary flushes when multiple TLB flushes targetting the same CPU
race. The complexity in this patch would not be worth it on its own,
but it will enable improved lazy TLB tracking and PCID.

x86/mm: Give each mm TLB flush generation a unique ID
This adds two new variables to mmu_context_t: ctx_id and tlb_gen.
ctx_id uniquely identifies the mm_struct and will never be reused.
For a given mm_struct (and hence ctx_id), tlb_gen is a monotonic
count of the number of times that a TLB flush has been requested.
The pair (ctx_id, tlb_gen) can be used as an identifier for TLB
flush actions and will be used in subsequent patches to reliably
determine whether all needed TLB flushes have occurred on a given
CPU.
This patch is split out for ease of review. By itself, it has no
real effect other than creating and updating the new variables.

The hotplug locking mechanism is an open coded RWSEM, which allows

The rework replaces the open coded RWSEM with a percpu RWSEM and
establishes full lockdep coverage that way.
The bulk of the changes fix up recursive locking issues and address
the now fully reported potential deadlocks all over the place. Some of
these deadlocks have been observed in the RT tree, but on mainline the

The reasons for this are:
- x86 has it's own PCI config lock for various reasons, so the

- The ECAM (mmconfig) access to the extended configuration space does
not require locking. The existing generic locking causes a massive
lock contention when accessing the extended config space of the
Uncore facility for performance monitoring.
The commit which switched the access to the primary config space over
to ECAM mode has been removed from the branch, so the primary config
space is still accessed with type1 accessors properly serialized by

"This is the main pull request for the block layer for 4.13. Not a huge
round in terms of features, but there's a lot of churn related to some
core cleanups.
Note this depends on the UUID tree pull request, that Christoph
already sent out.
This pull request contains:
- A series from Christoph, unifying the error/stats codes in the
block layer. We now use blk_status_t everywhere, instead of using
different schemes for different places.
- Also from Christoph, some cleanups around request allocation and IO
scheduler interactions in blk-mq.
- And yet another series from Christoph, cleaning up how we handle
and do bounce buffering in the block layer.
- A blk-mq debugfs series from Bart, further improving on the support
we have for exporting internal information to aid debugging IO
hangs or stalls.
- Also from Bart, a series that cleans up the request initialization
differences across types of devices.
- A series from Goldwyn Rodrigues, allowing the block layer to return
failure if we will block and the user asked for non-blocking.
- Patch from Hannes for supporting setting loop devices block size to
that of the underlying device.
- Two series of patches from Javier, fixing various issues with
lightnvm, particular around pblk.
- A series from me, adding support for write hints. This comes with
NVMe support as well, so applications can help guide data placement
on flash to improve performance, latencies, and write
amplification.
- A series from Ming, improving and hardening blk-mq support for
stopping/starting and quiescing hardware queues.
- Two pull requests for NVMe updates. Nothing major on the feature
side, but lots of cleanups and bug fixes. From the usual crew.
- A series from Neil Brown, greatly improving the bio rescue set
support. Most notably, this kills the bio rescue work queues, if we
don't really need them.

Cause is a call to dma_coerce_mask_and_coherenet in parport_pc_probe_port,

transaction.
parisc: Report SIGSEGV instead of SIGBUS when running out of stack
When a process runs out of stack the parisc kernel wrongly faults with SIGBUS
instead of the expected SIGSEGV signal.
This example shows how the kernel faults:
do_page_fault() command='a.out' type=15 address=0xfaac2000 in libc-2.24.so[f8308000+16c000]
trap #15: Data TLB miss fault, vm_start = 0xfa2c2000, vm_end = 0xfaac2000
The vma->vm_end value is the first address which does not belong to the vma, so
adjust the check to include vma->vm_end to the range for which to send the
SIGSEGV signal.
This patch unbreaks building the debian libsigsegv package.

uapi/linux/a.out.h: don't use deprecated system-specific predefines.
uapi/linux/a.out.h uses a number of predefined macros that are
deprecated because they're in the application namespace
(e.g. '#ifdef linux' instead of '#ifdef __linux__').
This patch either corrects or just removes them if they are not
applicable to Linux.
The primary reason this is worth bothering to fix, considering how
obsolete a.out binary support is, is that the GCC build process
considers this such a severe error that it will copy the header into a
private directory and change the macro names, which causes future
updates to the header to be masked. This header probably doesn't get
updated very often anymore, but it is the _only_ uapi header that gets
this treatment, so IMHO it is worth patching just to drive that number
all the way to zero.

x86/KASLR: Fix detection 32/64 bit bootloaders for 5-level paging
KASLR uses hack to detect whether we booted via startup_32() or
startup_64(): it checks what is loaded into cr3 and compares it to
_pgtables. _pgtables is the array of page tables where early code
allocates page table from.
KASLR expects cr3 to point to _pgtables if we booted via startup_32(), but
that's not true if we booted with 5-level paging enabled. In this case top
level page table is allocated separately and only the first p4d page table
is allocated from the array.
Let's modify the check to cover both 4- and 5-level paging cases.
The patch also renames 'level4p' to 'top_level_pgt' as it now can hold
page table for 4th or 5th level, depending on configuration.

MIPS: Perform post-DMA cache flushes on systems with MAARs
Recent CPUs from Imagination Technologies such as the I6400 or P6600 are
able to speculatively fetch data from memory into caches. This means
that if used in a system with non-coherent DMA they require that caches
be invalidated after a device performs DMA, and before the CPU reads the
DMA'd data, in order to ensure that stale values weren't speculatively
prefetched.
Such CPUs also introduced Memory Accessibility Attribute Registers
(MAARs) in order to control the regions in which they are allowed to
speculate. Thus we can use the presence of MAARs as a good indication
that the CPU requires the above cache maintenance. Use the presence of
MAARs to determine the result of cpu_needs_post_dma_flush() in the
default case, in order to handle these recent CPUs correctly.
Note that the return type of cpu_needs_post_dma_flush() is changed to
bool, such that it's clearer what's happening when cpu_has_maar is cast
to bool for the return value. If this patch were backported to a
pre-v4.7 kernel then MIPS_CPU_MAAR was 1ull<<34, so when cast to an int
we would incorrectly return 0. It so happens that MIPS_CPU_MAAR is
currently 1ull<<30, so when truncated to an int gives a non-zero value
anyway, but even so the implicit conversion from long long int to bool
makes it clearer to understand what will happen than the implicit
conversion from long long int to int would. The bool return type also
fits this usage better semantically, so seems like an all-round win.
Thanks to Ed for spotting the issue for pre-v4.7 kernels & suggesting
the return type change.

MIPS: Fix IRQ tracing & lockdep when rescheduling
When the scheduler sets TIF_NEED_RESCHED & we call into the scheduler
from arch/mips/kernel/entry.S we disable interrupts. This is true
regardless of whether we reach work_resched from syscall_exit_work,
resume_userspace or by looping after calling schedule(). Although we
disable interrupts in these paths we don't call trace_hardirqs_off()
before calling into C code which may acquire locks, and we therefore
leave lockdep with an inconsistent view of whether interrupts are
disabled or not when CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING & CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP are
both enabled.
Without tracing this interrupt state lockdep will print warnings such
as the following once a task returns from a syscall via
syscall_exit_partial with TIF_NEED_RESCHED set:
Fix this by using the TRACE_IRQS_OFF macro to call trace_hardirqs_off()
when CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS is enabled. This is done before invoking
schedule() following the work_resched label because:
1) Interrupts are disabled regardless of the path we take to reach
work_resched() & schedule().
2) Performing the tracing here avoids the need to do it in paths which
disable interrupts but don't call out to C code before hitting a
path which uses the RESTORE_SOME macro that will call
trace_hardirqs_on() or trace_hardirqs_off() as appropriate.
We call trace_hardirqs_on() using the TRACE_IRQS_ON macro before calling
syscall_trace_leave() for similar reasons, ensuring that lockdep has a
consistent view of state after we re-enable interrupts.

Besides cleaning up the code & avoiding needless work, this has the side
effect of avoiding an arithmetic error found by Bryan on 64 bit systems
