Let's define page_mapped() to be true for compound pages if any
sub-pages of the compound page is mapped (with PMD or PTE).On other hand page_mapcount() return mapcount for this particular small
page.This will make cases like page_get_anon_vma() behave correctly once we
allow huge pages to be mapped with PTE.Most users outside core-mm should use page_mapcount() instead of
page_mapped().Signed-off-by: Kirill A. Shutemov

Hugh has pointed that compound_head() call can be unsafe in some
context. There's one example:CPU0 CPU1
isolate_migratepages_block()
page_count()
compound_head()
!!PageTail() == true
put_page()
tail->first_page = NULL
head = tail->first_page
alloc_pages(__GFP_COMP)
prep_compound_page()
tail->first_page = head
__SetPageTail(p);
!!PageTail() == true
The race is pure theoretical. I don't it's possible to trigger it in
practice. But who knows.We can fix the race by changing how encode PageTail() and compound_head()
within struct page to be able to update them in one shot.The patch introduces page->compound_head into third double word block in
front of compound_dtor and compound_order. Bit 0 encodes PageTail() and
the rest bits are pointer to head page if bit zero is set.The patch moves page->pmd_huge_pte out of word, just in case if an
architecture defines pgtable_t into something what can have the bit 0
set.hugetlb_cgroup uses page->lru.next in the second tail page to store
pointer struct hugetlb_cgroup. The patch switch it to use page->private
in the second tail page instead. The space is free since ->first_page is
removed from the union.The patch also opens possibility to remove HUGETLB_CGROUP_MIN_ORDER
limitation, since there's now space in first tail page to store struct
hugetlb_cgroup pointer. But that's out of scope of the patch.That means page->compound_head shares storage space with:
- page->lru.next;
- page->next;
- page->rcu_head.next;That's too long list to be absolutely sure, but looks like nobody uses
bit 0 of the word.page->rcu_head.next guaranteed[1] to have bit 0 clean as long as we use
call_rcu(), call_rcu_bh(), call_rcu_sched(), or call_srcu(). But future
call_rcu_lazy() is not allowed as it makes use of the bit and we can
get false positive PageTail().[1] http://lkml.kernel.org/g/20150827163634.GD4029@linux.vnet.ibm.com

The previous patch introduced a flag that specified pages in a VMA should
be placed on the unevictable LRU, but they should not be made present when
the area is created. This patch adds the ability to set this state via
the new mlock system calls.We add MLOCK_ONFAULT for mlock2 and MCL_ONFAULT for mlockall.
MLOCK_ONFAULT will set the VM_LOCKONFAULT modifier for VM_LOCKED.
MCL_ONFAULT should be used as a modifier to the two other mlockall flags.
When used with MCL_CURRENT, all current mappings will be marked with
VM_LOCKED | VM_LOCKONFAULT. When used with MCL_FUTURE, the mm->def_flags
will be marked with VM_LOCKED | VM_LOCKONFAULT. When used with both
MCL_CURRENT and MCL_FUTURE, all current mappings and mm->def_flags will be
marked with VM_LOCKED | VM_LOCKONFAULT.Prior to this patch, mlockall() will unconditionally clear the
mm->def_flags any time it is called without MCL_FUTURE. This behavior is
maintained after adding MCL_ONFAULT. If a call to mlockall(MCL_FUTURE) is
followed by mlockall(MCL_CURRENT), the mm->def_flags will be cleared and
new VMAs will be unlocked. This remains true with or without MCL_ONFAULT
in either mlockall() invocation.munlock() will unconditionally clear both vma flags. munlockall()
unconditionally clears for VMA flags on all VMAs and in the mm->def_flags
field.Signed-off-by: Eric B Munson

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"Quite a new features are included this time.First off, the Collaborative Processor Performance Control interface
(version 2) defined by ACPI will now be supported on ARM64 along with
a cpufreq frontend for CPU performance scaling.Second, ACPI gets a new infrastructure for the early probing of IRQ
chips and clock sources (along the lines of the existing similar
mechanism for DT).Next, the ACPI core and the generic device properties API will now
support a recently introduced hierarchical properties extension of the
_DSD (Device Specific Data) ACPI device configuration object. If the
ACPI platform firmware uses that extension to organize device
properties in a hierarchical way, the kernel will automatically handle
it and make those properties available to device drivers via the
generic device properties API.It also will be possible to build the ACPICA's AML interpreter
debugger into the kernel now and use that to diagnose AML-related
problems more efficiently. In the future, this should make it
possible to single-step AML execution and do similar things.
Interesting stuff, although somewhat experimental at this point.Finally, the PM core gets a new mechanism that can be used by device
drivers to distinguish between suspend-to-RAM (based on platform
firmware support) and suspend-to-idle (or other variants of system
suspend the platform firmware is not involved in) and possibly
optimize their device suspend/resume handling accordingly.In addition to that, some existing features are re-organized quite
substantially.First, the ACPI-based handling of PCI host bridges on x86 and ia64 is
unified and the common code goes into the ACPI core (so as to reduce
code duplication and eliminate non-essential differences between the
two architectures in that area).Second, the Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework is
reorganized to make the code easier to find and follow.Next, the cpufreq core's sysfs interface is reorganized to get rid of
the "primary CPU" concept for configurations in which the same
performance scaling settings are shared between multiple CPUs.Finally, some interfaces that aren't necessary any more are dropped
from the generic power domains framework.On top of the above we have some minor extensions, cleanups and bug
fixes in multiple places, as usual.Specifics:
- ACPICA update to upstream revision 20150930 (Bob Moore, Lv Zheng).
The most significant change is to allow the AML debugger to be
built into the kernel. On top of that there is an update related
to the NFIT table (the ACPI persistent memory interface) and a few
fixes and cleanups.- ACPI CPPC2 (Collaborative Processor Performance Control v2) support
along with a cpufreq frontend (Ashwin Chaugule).This can only be enabled on ARM64 at this point.
- New ACPI infrastructure for the early probing of IRQ chips and
clock sources (Marc Zyngier).- Support for a new hierarchical properties extension of the ACPI
_DSD (Device Specific Data) device configuration object allowing
the kernel to handle hierarchical properties (provided by the
platform firmware this way) automatically and make them available
to device drivers via the generic device properties interface
(Rafael Wysocki).- Generic device properties API extension to obtain an index of
certain string value in an array of strings, along the lines of
of_property_match_string(), but working for all of the supported
firmware node types, and support for the "dma-names" device
property based on it (Mika Westerberg).- ACPI core fix to parse the MADT (Multiple APIC Description Table)
entries in the order expected by platform firmware (and mandated by
the specification) to avoid confusion on systems with more than 255
logical CPUs (Lukasz Anaczkowski).- Consolidation of the ACPI-based handling of PCI host bridges on x86
and ia64 (Jiang Liu).- ACPI core fixes to ensure that the correct IRQ number is used to
represent the SCI (System Control Interrupt) in the cases when it
has been re-mapped (Chen Yu).- New ACPI backlight quirk for Lenovo IdeaPad S405 (Hans de Goede).
- ACPI EC driver fixes (Lv Zheng).
- Assorted ACPI fixes and cleanups (Dan Carpenter, Insu Yun, Jiri
Kosina, Rami Rosen, Rasmus Villemoes).- New mechanism in the PM core allowing drivers to check if the
platform firmware is going to be involved in the upcoming system
suspend or if it has been involved in the suspend the system is
resuming from at the moment (Rafael Wysocki).This should allow drivers to optimize their suspend/resume handling
in some cases and the changes include a couple of users of it (the
i8042 input driver, PCI PM).- PCI PM fix to prevent runtime-suspended devices with PME enabled
from being resumed during system suspend even if they aren't
configured to wake up the system from sleep (Rafael Wysocki).- New mechanism to report the number of a wakeup IRQ that woke up the
system from sleep last time (Alexandra Yates).- Removal of unused interfaces from the generic power domains
framework and fixes related to latency measurements in that code
(Ulf Hansson, Daniel Lezcano).- cpufreq core sysfs interface rework to make it handle CPUs that
share performance scaling settings (represented by a common cpufreq
policy object) more symmetrically (Viresh Kumar).This should help to simplify the CPU offline/online handling among
other things.- cpufreq core fixes and cleanups (Viresh Kumar).
- intel_pstate fixes related to the Turbo Activation Ratio (TAR)
mechanism on client platforms which causes the turbo P-states range
to vary depending on platform firmware settings (Srinivas
Pandruvada).- intel_pstate sysfs interface fix (Prarit Bhargava).

Drop unaligned dcache management functions as they are no longer used.
This reverts commit bd974240c9a7 ("xtensa: cache inquiry and
unaligned cache handling functions").Signed-off-by: Max Filippov

There are no .bootstrap or .ResetVector.text sections linked to the
vmlinux image, drop these sections from vmlinux.ld.S. Drop
RESET_VECTOR_VADDR definition only used for .ResetVector.text.Drop remapped copies of primary and secondary reset vectors, as modern
gdb don't have problems stepping through instructions at arbitrary
locations. Drop corresponding sections from the corresponding linker
scripts.Signed-off-by: Max Filippov

There are multiple factors adding to the issue in different
configurations:- commit 17290231df16eeee ("xtensa: add fixup for double exception raised
in window overflow") added function window_overflow_restore_a0_fixup to
double exception vector overlapping reset vector location of secondary
processor cores.
- on MMUv2 cores RESET_VECTOR1_VADDR may point to uncached kernel memory
making code overlapping depend on cache type and size, so that without
cache or with WT cache reset vector code overwrites double exception
code, making issue even harder to detect.
- on MMUv3 cores RESET_VECTOR1_VADDR may point to unmapped area, as
MMUv3 cores change virtual address map to match MMUv2 layout, but
reset vector virtual address is given for the original MMUv3 mapping.
- physical memory region of the secondary reset vector is not reserved
in the physical memory map, and thus may be allocated and overwritten
at arbitrary moment.Fix it as follows:
- move window_overflow_restore_a0_fixup code to .text section.
- define RESET_VECTOR1_VADDR so that it points to reset vector in the
cacheable MMUv2 map for cores with MMU.
- reserve reset vector region in the physical memory map. Drop separate
literal section and build mxhead.S with text section literals.Cc:

Not having HAVE_FUTEX_CMPXCHG makes futex_detect_cmpxchg probe
cmpxchg_futex_value_locked with NULL address. It's not guaranteed to
fault without MMU, instead it locks up on Xtensa when there's no RAM at
address 0.Select HAVE_FUTEX_CMPXCHG in noMMU Xtensa configurations.

KIO region location is different for noMMU cores. Provide different

Build-time fixes:
- make lbeg/lend/lcount save/restore conditional on kernel entry;
- don't clear lcount in platform_restart functions unconditionally.Run-time fixes:
- use correct end of range register in __endla paired with __loopt, not
the unused temporary register. This fixes .bss zero-initialization.
Update comments in asmmacro.h;
- don't clobber a10 in the usercopy that leads to access to unmapped
memory.Cc:

Enable building all dtb files when CONFIG_OF_ALL_DTBS is enabled. The dtbs
are not really dependent on a platform being enabled or any other kernel
config, so for testing coverage it is convenient to build all of the dtbs.
This builds all dts files in the tree, not just targets listed.Signed-off-by: Rob Herring

Pull strscpy string copy function implementation from Chris Metcalf.
Chris sent this during the merge window, but I waffled back and forth on
the pull request, which is why it's going in only now.The new "strscpy()" function is definitely easier to use and more secure
than either strncpy() or strlcpy(), both of which are horrible nasty
interfaces that have serious and irredeemable problems.strncpy() has a useless return value, and doesn't NUL-terminate an
overlong result. To make matters worse, it pads a short result with
zeroes, which is a performance disaster if you have big buffers.strlcpy(), by contrast, is a mis-designed "fix" for strlcpy(), lacking
the insane NUL padding, but having a differently broken return value
which returns the original length of the source string. Which means
that it will read characters past the count from the source buffer, and
you have to trust the source to be properly terminated. It also makes
error handling fragile, since the test for overflow is unnecessarily
subtle.strscpy() avoids both these problems, guaranteeing the NUL termination
(but not excessive padding) if the destination size wasn't zero, and
making the overflow condition very obvious by returning -E2BIG. It also
doesn't read past the size of the source, and can thus be used for
untrusted source data too.So why did I waffle about this for so long?
Every time we introduce a new-and-improved interface, people start doing
these interminable series of trivial conversion patches.And every time that happens, somebody does some silly mistake, and the
conversion patch to the improved interface actually makes things worse.
Because the patch is mindnumbing and trivial, nobody has the attention
span to look at it carefully, and it's usually done over large swatches
of source code which means that not every conversion gets tested.So I'm pulling the strscpy() support because it *is* a better interface.
But I will refuse to pull mindless conversion patches. Use this in
places where it makes sense, but don't do trivial patches to fix things
that aren't actually known to be broken.* 'strscpy' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile:
tile: use global strscpy() rather than private copy
string: provide strscpy()
