That is also the one that changes drivers/acpi/acpi_pnp.c. The change in that file is only removing IPMI from a "special platform devices" list, since I convert it to the standard PNP interface. I posted this one to the ACPI list twice and got no response, and it seems to work well in my testing, so I'm hoping it's good. Hidehiro Kawai posted a set of changes that improves the panic time handling in the IPMI driver. The rest of the changes are minor bug fixes or cleanups and some documentation" * tag 'for-linus-4.3' of git://git.code.sf.net/p/openipmi/linux-ipmi: ipmi:ssif: Add a module parm to specify that SMBus alerts don't work ipmi: add of_device_id in MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE ipmi: Compensate for BMCs that wont set the irq enable bit ipmi: Don't call receive handler in the panic context ipmi: Avoid touching possible corrupted lists in the panic context ipmi: Don't flush messages in sender() in run-to-completion mode ipmi: Factor out message flushing procedure ipmi: Remove unneeded set_run_to_completion call ipmi: Make some data const that was only read ipmi: constify SSIF ACPI device ids ipmi: Delete an unnecessary check before the function call "cleanup_one_si" char:ipmi - Change 1 to true for bool type variables during initialization. impi:Remove unneeded setting of module owner to THIS_MODULE in the platform structure, powernv_ipmi_driver ipmi: Add a comment in how messages are delivered from the lower layer ipmi/powernv: Fix potential invalid pointer dereference ipmi: Convert the IPMI SI ACPI handling to a platform device ipmi: Add device tree bindings information

| * ipmi: Don't call receive handler in the panic contextHidehiro Kawai2015-09-031-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Received handlers defined as ipmi_recv_hndl member of struct ipmi_user_hndl can take a spinlock. This means that if the kernel panics while holding the lock, a deadlock may happen on the lock while flushing queued messages in the panic context. Calling the receive handler doesn't make much meanings in the panic context, simply skip it to avoid possible deadlocks.

| * ipmi: Avoid touching possible corrupted lists in the panic contextHidehiro Kawai2015-09-031-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When processing queued messages in the panic context, IPMI driver tries to do it without any locking to avoid deadlocks. However, this means we can touch a corrupted list if the kernel panicked while manipulating the list. Fortunately, current `add-tail and del-from-head' style implementation won't touch the corrupted part, but it is inherently risky. To get rid of the risk, this patch re-initializes the message lists on panic if the related spinlock has already been acquired. As the result, we may lose queued messages, but it's not so painful. Dropping messages on the received message list is also less problematic because no one can respond the received messages.

| * ipmi: Don't flush messages in sender() in run-to-completion modeHidehiro Kawai2015-09-033-5/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When flushing queued messages in run-to-completion mode, smi_event_handler() is recursively called. flush_messages() smi_event_handler() handle_transaction_done() deliver_recv_msg() ipmi_smi_msg_received() smi_recv_tasklet() sender() flush_messages() smi_event_handler() ... The depth of the recursive call depends on the number of queued messages, so it can cause a stack overflow if many messages have been queued. To solve this problem, this patch removes flush_messages() from sender()@ipmi_si_intf.c. Instead, add flush_messages() to caller side of sender() if needed. Additionally, to implement this, add new handler flush_messages to struct ipmi_smi_handlers. Signed-off-by: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@hitachi.com> Fixed up a comment and some spacing issues.

| * ipmi: Convert the IPMI SI ACPI handling to a platform deviceCorey Minyard2015-09-032-165/+157
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The IPMI SI driver was using direct PNP, but that was not really ideal because the IPMI device is a platform device. There was some special handling in the acpi_pnp.c code for making this work, but that was breaking ACPI handling for the IPMI SSIF driver. So without this patch there were significant issues getting the SSIF driver to work with ACPI. So use a platform device for ACPI detection and remove the entry from acpi_pnp.c.

Second, every error message in zram_add() has a "for device %d" part, which makes errors more informative. Add missing part to "Error creating sysfs group" message.

Put a page with higher ->inuse count first within its ->fullness_list, which will give us better chances to fill up this page with new objects (find_get_zspage() return ->fullness_list head for new object allocation), so some zspages will become ZS_ALMOST_FULL/ZS_FULL quicker. It performs a trivial and cheap ->inuse compare which does not slow down zsmalloc and in the worst case keeps the list pages in no particular order. A more expensive solution could sort fullness_list by ->inuse count.

| * | zsmalloc: use shrinker to trigger auto-compactionSergey Senozhatsky2015-09-081-0/+78
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Perform automatic pool compaction by a shrinker when system is getting tight on memory. User-space has a very little knowledge regarding zsmalloc fragmentation and basically has no mechanism to tell whether compaction will result in any memory gain. Another issue is that user space is not always aware of the fact that system is getting tight on memory. Which leads to very uncomfortable scenarios when user space may start issuing compaction 'randomly' or from crontab (for example). Fragmentation is not always necessarily bad, allocated and unused objects, after all, may be filled with the data later, w/o the need of allocating a new zspage. On the other hand, we obviously don't want to waste memory when the system needs it. Compaction now has a relatively quick pool scan so we are able to estimate the number of pages that will be freed easily, which makes it possible to call this function from a shrinker->count_objects() callback. We also abort compaction as soon as we detect that we can't free any pages any more, preventing wasteful objects migrations.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Compaction returns back to zram the number of migrated objects, which is quite uninformative -- we have objects of different sizes so user space cannot obtain any valuable data from that number. Change compaction to operate in terms of pages and return back to compaction issuer the number of pages that were freed during compaction. So from now on we will export more meaningful value in zram<id>/mm_stat -- the number of freed (compacted) pages. This requires: (a) a rename of `num_migrated' to 'pages_compacted' (b) a internal API change -- return first_page's fullness_group from putback_zspage(), so we know when putback_zspage() did free_zspage(). It helps us to account compaction stats correctly.

It worked fine, because (a) zram had it's own counter of migrated objects and (b) only zram could trigger compaction. However, this does not work for automatic pool compaction (not issued by zram). To account objects migrated during auto-compaction (issued by the shrinker) we need to store this number in zs_pool. Define a new `struct zs_pool_stats' structure to keep zs_pool's stats there. It provides only `num_migrated', as of this writing, but it surely can be extended. A new zsmalloc zs_pool_stats() symbol exports zs_pool's stats back to caller. Use zs_pool_stats() in zram and remove `num_migrated' from zram_stats.

This data will help us make better decisions during compaction. We are especially interested in OBJ_ALLOCATED and OBJ_USED, which can tell us if class compaction will result in any memory gain. For instance, we know the number of allocated objects in the class, the number of objects being used (so we also know how many objects are not used) and the number of objects per-page. So we can ensure if we have enough unused objects to form at least one ZS_EMPTY zspage during compaction. We calculate this value on per-class basis so we can calculate a total number of zspages that can be released. Which is exactly what a shrinker wants to know.

| * | zsmalloc: drop unused variable `nr_to_migrate'Sergey Senozhatsky2015-09-081-4/+0

The problem here is that currently we fully rely on user space to perform compaction when needed. However, performing zsmalloc compaction is not always an obvious thing to do. For example, suppose we have a `idle' fragmented (compaction was never performed) zram device and system is getting low on memory due to some 3rd party user processes (gcc LTO, or firefox, etc.). It's quite unlikely that user space will issue zpool compaction in this case. Besides, user space cannot tell for sure how badly pool is fragmented; however, this info is known to zsmalloc and, hence, to a shrinker. This patch (of 7): __zs_compact() does not use `nr_to_migrate', drop it.

But the result is that it could not get interrupted before the given timeout because the condition for the wait event is "false". This patch puts back the original approach but it uses freezable_schedule_timeout_interruptible() instead of schedule_timeout_interruptible(). It does the right thing. I am pretty sure that the freezable variant was not used in the original fix only because it was not available at that time. The regression has been there for ages. It was not critical. It just did the allocation throttling a little bit more aggressively. I found this problem when converting the kthread to kthread worker API and trying to understand the code. This bug is thought to have minimal userspace-visible impact. Somebody could set a high alloc_sleep value by mistake, and then try to fix it back, but khugepaged would keep sleeping until the high value expires.

If pageblock is skipped in isolate_migratepages() due to whatever reason, cc->migrate_pfn can be far from isolate_start_pfn hence we flush pages that were freed. For example, the following scenario can be possible: - assume order-9 compaction, pageblock order is 9 - start_isolate_pfn is 0x200 - isolate_migratepages() - skip a number of pageblocks - start to isolate from pfn 0x600 - cc->migrate_pfn = 0x620 - return - last_migrated_pfn is set to 0x200 - check flushing condition - current_block_start is set to 0x600 - last_migrated_pfn < current_block_start then do useless flush This wrong flush would not help the performance and success rate so this patch tries to fix it. One simple way to know the exact position where we start to isolate migratable pages is that we cache it in isolate_migratepages() before entering actual isolation. This patch implements that and fixes the problem.

In addition to better diagnostics in DEBUG_VM builds for situations which have been already fatal (e.g. out-of-bounds node id), there are two visible changes for potential existing buggy callers of alloc_pages_node(): - calling alloc_pages_node() with any negative nid (e.g. due to arithmetic overflow) was treated as passing NUMA_NO_NODE and fallback to local node was applied. This will now be fatal. - calling alloc_pages_node() with an offline node will now be checked for DEBUG_VM builds. Since it's not fatal if the node has been previously online, and this patch may expose some existing buggy callers, change the VM_BUG_ON in __alloc_pages_node() to VM_WARN_ON.

| * | mm: rename alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node()Vlastimil Babka2015-09-0818-37/+38

Unfortunately the name of the function can easily suggest that the allocation is restricted to the given node and fails otherwise. In truth, the node is only preferred, unless __GFP_THISNODE is passed among the gfp flags. The misleading name has lead to mistakes in the past, see for example commits 5265047ac301 ("mm, thp: really limit transparent hugepage allocation to local node") and b360edb43f8e ("mm, mempolicy: migrate_to_node should only migrate to node"). Another issue with the name is that there's a family of alloc_pages_exact*() functions where 'exact' means exact size (instead of page order), which leads to more confusion. To prevent further mistakes, this patch effectively renames alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node() to better convey that it's an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node() not intended for general usage. Both functions get described in comments. It has been also considered to really provide a convenience function for allocations restricted to a node, but the major opinion seems to be that __GFP_THISNODE already provides that functionality and we shouldn't duplicate the API needlessly. The number of users would be small anyway. Existing callers of alloc_pages_exact_node() are simply converted to call __alloc_pages_node(), with the exception of sba_alloc_coherent() which open-codes the check for NUMA_NO_NODE, so it is converted to use alloc_pages_node() instead. This means it no longer performs some VM_BUG_ON checks, and since the current check for nid in alloc_pages_node() uses a 'nid < 0' comparison (which includes NUMA_NO_NODE), it may hide wrong values which would be previously exposed. Both differences will be rectified by the next patch. To sum up, this patch makes no functional changes, except temporarily hiding potentially buggy callers. Restricting the checks in alloc_pages_node() is left for the next patch which can in turn expose more existing buggy callers.
