3b2ebeaf98 mm/gfp: add kernel-doc for gfp_t
The generated html will link to the definition of the gfp_t automatically
once we define it.  Move the one-paragraph overview of GFP flags from the
documentation directory into gfp.h and pull gfp.h into the documentation.

This generates warnings with clang
(https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210219195509.GA59987@24bbad8f3778), so
use a #if 0 to hide it from the compiler for now.

81d88ce550 dma-mapping: remove the {alloc,free}_noncoherent methods
It turns out allowing non-contigous allocations here was a rather bad
idea, as we'll now need to define ways to get the pages for mmaping
or dma_buf sharing.  Revert this change and stick to the original
concept.  A different API for the use case of non-contigous allocations
will be added back later.

a9bed1e1c2 selftests/vm: only some gup_test items are really benchmarks
Therefore, some minor cleanup and improvements are in order:

1. Rename the other items appropriately.

2. Stop reporting timing information on the non-benchmark items. It's
   still being recorded and is available, but there's no point in
   cluttering up the report with data that no one reasonably needs to
   check.

3. Don't do iterations, for non-benchmark items.

4. Print out a shorter, more appropriate report for the non-benchmark
   tests.

5. Add the command that was run, to the report. This really helps, as
   there are quite a lot of options now.

6. Use a larger integer type for cmd, now that it's being compared
   Otherwise it doesn't work, because in this case cmd is about 3 billion,
   which is the perfect size for problems with signed vs unsigned int.

9c84f22926 mm/gup_benchmark: rename to mm/gup_test
Patch series "selftests/vm: gup_test, hmm-tests, assorted improvements", v3.

Summary: This series provides two main things, and a number of smaller
supporting goodies.  The two main points are:

1) Add a new sub-test to gup_test, which in turn is a renamed version
   of gup_benchmark.  This sub-test allows nicer testing of dump_pages(),
   at least on user-space pages.

   For quite a while, I was doing a quick hack to gup_test.c whenever I
   wanted to try out changes to dump_page().  Then Matthew Wilcox asked me
   what I meant when I said "I used my dump_page() unit test", and I
   realized that it might be nice to check in a polished up version of
   that.

   Details about how it works and how to use it are in the commit
   description for patch #6 ("selftests/vm: gup_test: introduce the
   dump_pages() sub-test").

2) Fixes a limitation of hmm-tests: these tests are incredibly useful,
   but only if people actually build and run them.  And it turns out that
   libhugetlbfs is a little too effective at throwing a wrench in the
   works, there.  So I've added a little configuration check that removes
   just two of the 21 hmm-tests, if libhugetlbfs is not available.

   Further details in the commit description of patch #8
   ("selftests/vm: hmm-tests: remove the libhugetlbfs dependency").

Other smaller things that this series does:

a) Remove code duplication by creating gup_test.h.

b) Clear up the sub-test organization, and their invocation within
   run_vmtests.sh.

c) Other minor assorted improvements.

[1] v2 is here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-doc/20200929212747.251804-1-jhubbard@nvidia.com/

[2] https://lore.kernel.org/r/CAHk-=wgh-TMPHLY3jueHX7Y2fWh3D+nMBqVS__AZm6-oorquWA@mail.gmail.com

This patch (of 9):

Rename nearly every "gup_benchmark" reference and file name to "gup_test".
The one exception is for the actual gup benchmark test itself.

The current code already does a *little* bit more than benchmarking, and
definitely covers more than get_user_pages_fast().  More importantly,
however, subsequent patches are about to add some functionality that is
non-benchmark related.

Closely related changes:

* Kconfig: in addition to renaming the options from GUP_BENCHMARK to
  GUP_TEST, update the help text to reflect that it's no longer a
  benchmark-only test.

f0dbd2bd1c mm: slab: provide krealloc_array()
When allocating an array of elements, users should check for
multiplication overflow or preferably use one of the provided helpers
like: kmalloc_array().

There's no krealloc_array() counterpart but there are many users who use
regular krealloc() to reallocate arrays.  Let's provide an actual
krealloc_array() implementation.

While at it: add some documentation regarding krealloc.

Merge tag 'docs/v5.10-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media

Pull documentation updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
 "A series of patches addressing warnings produced by make htmldocs.
  This includes:

   - kernel-doc markup fixes

   - ReST fixes

   - Updates at the build system in order to support newer versions of
     the docs build toolchain (Sphinx)

  After this series, the number of html build warnings should reduce
  significantly, and building with Sphinx 3.1 or later should now be
  supported (although it is still recommended to use Sphinx 2.4.4).

  As agreed with Jon, I should be sending you a late pull request by the
  end of the merge window addressing remaining issues with docs build,
  as there are a number of warning fixes that depends on pull requests
  that should be happening along the merge window.

  The end goal is to have a clean htmldocs build on Kernel 5.10.

  PS. It should be noticed that Sphinx 3.0 is not currently supported,
  as it lacks support for C domain namespaces. Such feature, needed in
  order to document uAPI system calls with Sphinx 3.x, was added only on
  Sphinx 3.1"

8fc75643c5 XArray: add xas_split
In order to use multi-index entries for huge pages in the page cache, we
need to be able to split a multi-index entry (eg if a file is truncated in
the middle of a huge page entry).  This version does not support splitting
more than one level of the tree at a time.  This is an acceptable
limitation for the page cache as we do not expect to support order-12
pages in the near future.

efa70f2fdc dma-mapping: add a new dma_alloc_pages API
This API is the equivalent of alloc_pages, except that the returned memory
is guaranteed to be DMA addressable by the passed in device.  The
implementation will also be used to provide a more sensible replacement
for DMA_ATTR_NON_CONSISTENT flag.

Additionally dma_alloc_noncoherent is switched over to use dma_alloc_pages
as its backend.

0d71675f87 dma-mapping: add a new dma_alloc_noncoherent API
Add a new API to allocate and free memory that is guaranteed to be
addressable by a device, but which potentially is not cache coherent
for DMA.

To transfer ownership to and from the device, the existing streaming
DMA API calls dma_sync_single_for_device and dma_sync_single_for_cpu
must be used.

For now the new calls are implemented on top of dma_alloc_attrs just
like the old-noncoherent API, but once all drivers are switched to
the new API it will be replaced with a better working implementation
that is available on all architectures.

25d8d4eeca powerpc updates for 5.9
- Add support for (optionally) using queued spinlocks & rwlocks.
 
  - Support for a new faster system call ABI using the scv instruction on Power9
    or later.
 
  - Drop support for the PROT_SAO mmap/mprotect flag as it will be unsupported on
    Power10 and future processors, leaving us with no way to implement the
    functionality it requests. This risks breaking userspace, though we believe
    it is unused in practice.
 
  - A bug fix for, and then the removal of, our custom stack expansion checking.
    We now allow stack expansion up to the rlimit, like other architectures.
 
  - Remove the remnants of our (previously disabled) topology update code, which
    tried to react to NUMA layout changes on virtualised systems, but was prone
    to crashes and other problems.
 
  - Add PMU support for Power10 CPUs.
 
  - A change to our signal trampoline so that we don't unbalance the link stack
    (branch return predictor) in the signal delivery path.
 
  - Lots of other cleanups, refactorings, smaller features and so on as usual.

350ef051d4 padata: remove stop function
padata_stop() has two callers and is unnecessary in both cases.  When
pcrypt calls it before padata_free(), it's being unloaded so there are
no outstanding padata jobs[0].  When __padata_free() calls it, it's
either along the same path or else pcrypt initialization failed, which
of course means there are also no outstanding jobs.

Removing it simplifies padata and saves text.

48f6e7f6d9 powerpc/pseries: remove cede offline state for CPUs
This effectively reverts commit 3aa565f53c ("powerpc/pseries: Add
hooks to put the CPU into an appropriate offline state"), which added
an offline mode for CPUs which uses the H_CEDE hcall instead of the
architected stop-self RTAS function in order to facilitate "folding"
of dedicated mode processors on PowerVM platforms to achieve energy
savings. This has been the default offline mode since its
introduction.

There's nothing about stop-self that would prevent the hypervisor from
achieving the energy savings available via H_CEDE, so the original
premise of this change appears to be flawed.

I also have encountered the claim that the transition to and from
ceded state is much faster than stop-self/start-cpu. Certainly we
would not want to use stop-self as an *idle* mode. That is what H_CEDE
is for. However, this difference is insignificant in the context of
Linux CPU hotplug, where the latency of an offline or online operation
on current systems is on the order of 100ms, mainly attributable to
all the various subsystems' cpuhp callbacks.

The cede offline mode also prevents accurate accounting, as discussed
before:
https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/1571740391-3251-1-git-send-email-ego@linux.vnet.ibm.com/

Unconditionally use stop-self to offline processor threads. This is
the architected method for offlining CPUs on PAPR systems.

The "cede_offline" boot parameter is rendered obsolete.

Removing this code enables the removal of the partition suspend code
which temporarily onlines all present CPUs.

eaf4d22a9e docs: mm/gup: pin_user_pages.rst: add a "case 5"
Patch series "vhost, docs: convert to pin_user_pages(), new "case 5""

It recently became clear to me that there are some get_user_pages*()
callers that don't fit neatly into any of the four cases that are so far
listed in pin_user_pages.rst.  vhost.c is one of those.

Add a Case 5 to the documentation, and refer to that when converting
vhost.c.

Thanks to Jan Kara for helping me (again) in understanding the
interaction between get_user_pages() and page writeback [1].

This is based on today's mmotm, which has a nearby patch to
pin_user_pages.rst that rewords cases 3 and 4.

Note that I have only compile-tested the vhost.c patch, although that
does also include cross-compiling for a few other arches.  Any run-time
testing would be greatly appreciated.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200529070343.GL14550@quack2.suse.cz

This patch (of 2):

There are four cases listed in pin_user_pages.rst.  These are intended
to help developers figure out whether to use get_user_pages*(), or
pin_user_pages*().  However, the four cases do not cover all the
situations.  For example, drivers/vhost/vhost.c has a "pin, write to
page, set page dirty, unpin" case.

Add a fifth case, to help explain that there is a general pattern that
requires pin_user_pages*() API calls.

a8f80f53fb mm/gup: update pin_user_pages.rst for "case 3" (mmu notifiers)
Update case 3 so that it covers the use of mmu notifiers, for hardware
that does, or does not have replayable page faults.

Also, elaborate case 4 slightly, as it was quite cryptic.

93431e0607 Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: documentation
Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
  For each line:
    If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
      For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
        If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
        return 200 OK and serve the same content:
          Replace HTTP with HTTPS.
