remap_file_pages(2) was invented to be able efficiently map parts of huge
file into limited 32-bit virtual address space such as in database
workloads.
Nonlinear mappings are pain to support and it seems there's no legitimate
use-cases nowadays since 64-bit systems are widely available.
Let's drop it and get rid of all these special-cased code.
The patch replaces the syscall with emulation which creates new VMA on
each remap_file_pages(), unless they it can be merged with an adjacent
one.
I didn't find *any* real code that uses remap_file_pages(2) to test
emulation impact on. I've checked Debian code search and source of all
packages in ALT Linux. No real users: libc wrappers, mentions in strace,
gdb, valgrind and this kind of stuff.
There are few basic tests in LTP for the syscall. They work just fine
with emulation.
To test performance impact, I've written small test case which demonstrate
pretty much worst case scenario: map 4G shmfs file, write to begin of
every page pgoff of the page, remap pages in reverse order, read every
page.
The test creates 1 million of VMAs if emulation is in use, so I had to set
vm.max_map_count to 1100000 to avoid -ENOMEM.
Before: 23.3 ( +- 4.31% ) seconds
After: 43.9 ( +- 0.85% ) seconds
Slowdown: 1.88x
I believe we can live with that.
Test case:
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <assert.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#define MB (1024UL * 1024)
#define SIZE (4096 * MB)
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
unsigned long *p;
long i, pass;
for (pass = 0; pass < 10; pass++) {
p = mmap(NULL, SIZE, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
if (p == MAP_FAILED) {
perror("mmap");
return -1;
}
for (i = 0; i < SIZE / 4096; i++)
p[i * 4096 / sizeof(*p)] = i;
for (i = 0; i < SIZE / 4096; i++) {
if (remap_file_pages(p + i * 4096 / sizeof(*p), 4096,
0, (SIZE - 4096 * (i + 1)) >> 12, 0)) {
perror("remap_file_pages");
return -1;
}
}
for (i = SIZE / 4096 - 1; i >= 0; i--)
assert(p[i * 4096 / sizeof(*p)] == SIZE / 4096 - i - 1);
munmap(p, SIZE);
}
return 0;
}

For VMAs that don't want write notifications, PTEs created for read faults
have their write bit set. If the read fault happens after VM_SOFTDIRTY is
cleared, then the PTE's softdirty bit will remain clear after subsequent
writes.
Here's a simple code snippet to demonstrate the bug:
char* m = mmap(NULL, getpagesize(), PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_SHARED, -1, 0);
system("echo 4 > /proc/$PPID/clear_refs"); /* clear VM_SOFTDIRTY */
assert(*m == '\0'); /* new PTE allows write access */
assert(!soft_dirty(x));
*m = 'x'; /* should dirty the page */
assert(soft_dirty(x)); /* fails */
With this patch, write notifications are enabled when VM_SOFTDIRTY is
cleared. Furthermore, to avoid unnecessary faults, write notifications
are disabled when VM_SOFTDIRTY is set.
As a side effect of enabling and disabling write notifications with care,
this patch fixes a bug in mprotect where vm_page_prot bits set by drivers
were zapped on mprotect. An analogous bug was fixed in mmap by
c9d0bf241451a3ab7d ("mm: uncached vma support with writenotify").

Sparc doesn't use HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR the same way x86 does. As a result break
out the new functions
watchdog_hardlockup_detector_is_enabled
watchdog_enable_hardlockup_detector
into their own #if defined area. This resolves the compile issue where
CONFIG_NMI_WATCHDOG=y and CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR is not set on sparc.

In some cases we don't want hard lockup detection enabled by default. An
example is when running as a guest. Introduce
watchdog_enable_hardlockup_detector(bool)
allowing those cases to disable hard lockup detection. This must be
executed early by the boot processor from e.g. smp_prepare_boot_cpu, in
order to allow kernel command line arguments to override it, as well as to
avoid hard lockup detection being enabled before we've had a chance to
indicate that it's unwanted. In summary,
initial boot: default=enabled
smp_prepare_boot_cpu
watchdog_enable_hardlockup_detector(false): default=disabled
cmdline has 'nmi_watchdog=1': default=enabled
The running kernel still has the ability to enable/disable at any time
with /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog us usual. However even when the
default has been overridden /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog will initially
show '1'. To truly turn it on one must disable/enable it, i.e.
echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
This patch will be immediately useful for KVM with the next patch of this
series. Other hypervisor guest types may find it useful as well.

This is almost the opposite function to string_unescape(). Nevertheless
it handles \0 and could be used for any byte buffer.
The documentation is supplied together with the function prototype.
The test cases covers most of the scenarios and would be expanded later

The introduced function string_escape_mem() is a kind of opposite to
string_unescape. We have several users of such functionality each of them
created custom implementation. The series contains clean up of test
suite, adding new call, and switching few users to use it via %*pE
specifier.
Test suite covers all of existing and most of potential use cases.
This patch (of 11):
The documentation of API belongs to c-file. This patch moves it
accordingly.
There is no functional change.

The previous patch made strnicmp into a wrapper for strncasecmp. This
patch makes all in-tree users of strnicmp call strncasecmp directly, while
still making sure that the strnicmp symbol can be used by out-of-tree
modules. It should be considered a temporary hack until all in-tree
callers have been converted.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"This set has a few minor updates, but the big change is the redesign
of the trampoline logic.
The trampoline logic of 3.17 required a descriptor for every function
that is registered to be traced and uses a trampoline. Currently,
only the function graph tracer uses a trampoline, but if you were to
trace all 32,000 (give or take a few thousand) functions with the
function graph tracer, it would create 32,000 descriptors to let us
know that there's a trampoline associated with it. This takes up a
bit of memory when there's a better way to do it.
The redesign now reuses the ftrace_ops' (what registers the function
graph tracer) hash tables. The hash tables tell ftrace what the
tracer wants to trace or doesn't want to trace. There's two of them:
one that tells us what to trace, the other tells us what not to trace.
If the first one is empty, it means all functions should be traced,
otherwise only the ones that are listed should be. The second hash
table tells us what not to trace, and if it is empty, all functions
may be traced, and if there's any listed, then those should not be
traced even if they exist in the first hash table.
It took a bit of massaging, but now these hashes can be used to keep
track of what has a trampoline and what does not, and allows the
ftrace accounting to work. Now we can trace all functions when using
the function graph trampoline, and avoid needing to create any special
descriptors to hold all the functions that are being traced"

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
"This set fixes a bunch of fallout from the changes that went in during
this merge window, particularly:
- Fix fsl_pq_mdio (Claudiu Manoil) and fm10k (Pranith Kumar) build
failures.
- Several networking drivers do atomic_set() on page counts where
that's not exactly legal. From Eric Dumazet.
- Make __skb_flow_get_ports() work cleanly with unaligned data, from
Alexander Duyck.
- Fix some kernel-doc buglets in rfkill and netlabel, from Fabian
Frederick.
- Unbalanced enable_irq_wake usage in bcmgenet and systemport
drivers, from Florian Fainelli.
- pxa168_eth needs to depend on HAS_DMA, from Geert Uytterhoeven.
- Multi-dequeue in the qdisc layer severely bypasses the fairness
limits the previous code used to enforce, reintroduce in a way that
at the same time doesn't compromise bulk dequeue opportunities.
From Jesper Dangaard Brouer.
- macvlan receive path unnecessarily hops through a softirq by using
netif_rx() instead of netif_receive_skb(). From Jason Baron"

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
"Here's a first pull request for powerpc updates for 3.18.
The bulk of the additions are for the "cxl" driver, for IBM's Coherent
Accelerator Processor Interface (CAPI). Most of it's in drivers/misc,
which Greg & Arnd maintain, Greg said he was happy for us to take it
through our tree.
There's the usual minor cleanups and fixes, including a bit of noise
in drivers from some of those. A bunch of updates to our EEH code,
which has been getting more testing. Several nice speedups from
Anton, including 20% in clear_page().
And a bunch of updates for freescale from Scott"
