If d_alloc_parallel() returns ERR_PTR(...), we don't want to dput()
that. Small reorganization allows to have all error-in-lookup
cases rejoin the main codepath after dput(child), avoiding the
entire problem.

Due to the autofs4 module using a file system type name of autofs
different from the module containing directory name autoload did not
function properly. To work around this kernel configurations have often
elected to build the module into the kernel.
This can result in selinux policies that prohibit autoloading of the
autofs module which need to be changed.
Add a comment about this to "possible changes" section of the autofs4
module help.

WHen registering a new binfmt_misc handler, it is possible to overflow

percpu_ida() decouples disabling interrupts from the locking operations.
This breaks some assumptions if the locking operations are replaced like
they are under -RT.
The same locking can be achieved by avoiding local_irq_save() and using
spin_lock_irqsave() instead. percpu_ida_alloc() gains one more preemption
point because after unlocking the fastpath and before the pool lock is
acquired, the interrupts are briefly enabled.

Improve the scalability of the IDA by using the per-IDA xa_lock rather
than the global simple_ida_lock. IDAs are not typically used in
performance-sensitive locations, but since we have this lock anyway, we
can use it. It is also a step towards converting the IDA from the radix
tree to the XArray.

trace of PID=6541 is printed as well as trace of PID=6540 before calling
panic().
Showing hung tasks up to /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_warnings could delay
calling panic() but normally there should not be so many hung tasks.

* Test lookup in /proc/self/fd.
"map_files" lookup story showed that lookup is not that simple.
* Test that all those symlinks open the same file.
Check with (st_dev, st_info).
* Test that kernel threads do not have anything in their /proc/*/fd/
directory.
Now this is where things get interesting.
First, kernel threads aren't pinned by /proc/self or equivalent,
thus some "atomicity" is required.
Second, ->comm can contain whitespace and ')'.
No, they are not escaped.
Third, the only reliable way to check if process is kernel thread
appears to be field #9 in /proc/*/stat.
This field is struct task_struct::flags in decimal!
Check is done by testing PF_KTHREAD flags like we do in kernel.
PF_KTREAD value is a part of userspace ABI !!!
Other methods for determining kernel threadness are not reliable:
* RSS can be 0 if everything is swapped, even while reading
from /proc/self.
* ->total_vm CAN BE ZERO if process is finishing
munmap(NULL, whole address space);
* /proc/*/maps and similar files can be empty because unmapping
everything works. Read returning 0 can't distinguish between
kernel thread and such suicide process.

When commit bd33ef3681 ("mm: enable page poisoning early at boot") got
rid of the PAGE_EXT_DEBUG_POISON, page_is_poisoned in the header left
behind. This patch cleans up the leftovers under the table.

The LKP robot found a 27% will-it-scale/page_fault3 performance
regression regarding commit e27be240df53("mm: memcg: make sure
memory.events is uptodate when waking pollers").
What the test does is:
1 mkstemp() a 128M file on a tmpfs;
2 start $nr_cpu processes, each to loop the following:
2.1 mmap() this file in shared write mode;
2.2 write 0 to this file in a PAGE_SIZE step till the end of the file;
2.3 unmap() this file and repeat this process.
3 After 5 minutes, check how many loops they managed to complete, the
higher the better.
The commit itself looks innocent enough as it merely changed some event
counting mechanism and this test didn't trigger those events at all.
Perf shows increased cycles spent on accessing root_mem_cgroup->stat_cpu
in count_memcg_event_mm()(called by handle_mm_fault()) and in
__mod_memcg_state() called by page_add_file_rmap(). So it's likely due
to the changed layout of 'struct mem_cgroup' that either make stat_cpu
falling into a constantly modifying cacheline or some hot fields stop
being in the same cacheline.
I verified this by moving memory_events[] back to where it was:
: --- a/include/linux/memcontrol.h
: +++ b/include/linux/memcontrol.h
: @@ -205,7 +205,6 @@ struct mem_cgroup {

:
: unsigned long socket_pressure;
And performance restored.
Later investigation found that as long as the following 3 fields
moving_account, move_lock_task and stat_cpu are in the same cacheline,
performance will be good. To avoid future performance surprise by other
commits changing the layout of 'struct mem_cgroup', this patch makes
sure the 3 fields stay in the same cacheline.
One concern of this approach is, moving_account and move_lock_task could
be modified when a process changes memory cgroup while stat_cpu is a
always read field, it might hurt to place them in the same cacheline. I
assume it is rare for a process to change memory cgroup so this should
be OK.

kvmalloc warned about incompatible gfp_mask to catch abusers (mostly
GFP_NOFS) with an intention that this will motivate authors of the code
to fix those. Linus argues that this just motivates people to do even
more hacks like
if (gfp == GFP_KERNEL)
kvmalloc
else
kmalloc
I haven't seen this happening much (Linus pointed to bucket_lock special
cases an atomic allocation but my git foo hasn't found much more) but it
is true that we can grow those in future. Therefore Linus suggested to
simply not fallback to vmalloc for incompatible gfp flags and rather
stick with the kmalloc path.

When bit is equal to 0x4, it means OPT_ZONE_DMA32 should be got from
GFP_ZONE_TABLE. OPT_ZONE_DMA32 shall be equal to ZONE_DMA32 or
ZONE_NORMAL according to the status of CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32.
Similarly, when bit is equal to 0xc, that means OPT_ZONE_DMA32 should be
got with an allocation policy GFP_MOVABLE. So ZONE_DMA32 or ZONE_NORMAL
is the possible result value.

shmem/tmpfs uses pseudo vma to allocate page with correct NUMA policy.
The pseudo vma doesn't have vm_page_prot set. We are going to encode
encryption KeyID in vm_page_prot. Having garbage there causes problems.
Zero out all unused fields in the pseudo vma.

In __alloc_pages_slowpath() we reset zonelist and preferred_zoneref for
allocations that can ignore memory policies. The zonelist is obtained
from current CPU's node. This is a problem for __GFP_THISNODE
allocations that want to allocate on a different node, e.g. because the
allocating thread has been migrated to a different CPU.
This has been observed to break SLAB in our 4.4-based kernel, because
there it relies on __GFP_THISNODE working as intended. If a slab page
is put on wrong node's list, then further list manipulations may corrupt
the list because page_to_nid() is used to determine which node's
list_lock should be locked and thus we may take a wrong lock and race.
Current SLAB implementation seems to be immune by luck thanks to commit
511e3a0588 ("mm/slab: make cache_grow() handle the page allocated on
arbitrary node") but there may be others assuming that __GFP_THISNODE
works as promised.
We can fix it by simply removing the zonelist reset completely. There
is actually no reason to reset it, because memory policies and cpusets
don't affect the zonelist choice in the first place. This was different
when commit 183f6371aa ("mm: ignore mempolicies when using
ALLOC_NO_WATERMARK") introduced the code, as mempolicies provided their
own restricted zonelists.
We might consider this for 4.17 although I don't know if there's
anything currently broken.
SLAB is currently not affected, but in kernels older than 4.7 that don't
yet have 511e3a0588 ("mm/slab: make cache_grow() handle the page
allocated on arbitrary node") it is. That's at least 4.4 LTS. Older
ones I'll have to check.
So stable backports should be more important, but will have to be
reviewed carefully, as the code went through many changes. BTW I think
that also the ac->preferred_zoneref reset is currently useless if we
don't also reset ac->nodemask from a mempolicy to NULL first (which we
probably should for the OOM victims etc?), but I would leave that for a
separate patch.

If a process monitored with userfaultfd changes it's memory mappings or
forks() at the same time as uffd monitor fills the process memory with
UFFDIO_COPY, the actual creation of page table entries and copying of
the data in mcopy_atomic may happen either before of after the memory
mapping modifications and there is no way for the uffd monitor to
maintain consistent view of the process memory layout.
For instance, let's consider fork() running in parallel with
userfaultfd_copy():
process | uffd monitor
---------------------------------+------------------------------
fork() | userfaultfd_copy()
... | ...
dup_mmap() | down_read(mmap_sem)
down_write(mmap_sem) | /* create PTEs, copy data */
dup_uffd() | up_read(mmap_sem)
copy_page_range() |
up_write(mmap_sem) |
dup_uffd_complete() |
/* notify monitor */ |
If the userfaultfd_copy() takes the mmap_sem first, the new page(s) will
be present by the time copy_page_range() is called and they will appear
in the child's memory mappings. However, if the fork() is the first to
take the mmap_sem, the new pages won't be mapped in the child's address
space.
If the pages are not present and child tries to access them, the monitor
will get page fault notification and everything is fine. However, if
the pages *are present*, the child can access them without uffd
noticing. And if we copy them into child it'll see the wrong data.
Since we are talking about background copy, we'd need to decide whether
the pages should be copied or not regardless #PF notifications.
Since userfaultfd monitor has no way to determine what was the order,
let's disallow userfaultfd_copy in parallel with the non-cooperative
events. In such case we return -EAGAIN and the uffd monitor can
understand that userfaultfd_copy() clashed with a non-cooperative event
and take an appropriate action.
