Pull signal handling cleanups from Al Viro:
"This is the first pile; another one will come a bit later and will
contain SYSCALL_DEFINE-related patches.
- a bunch of signal-related syscalls (both native and compat)
unified.
- a bunch of compat syscalls switched to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE
(fixing several potential problems with missing argument
validation, while we are at it)
- a lot of now-pointless wrappers killed
- a couple of architectures (cris and hexagon) forgot to save
altstack settings into sigframe, even though they used the
(uninitialized) values in sigreturn; fixed.
- microblaze fixes for delivery of multiple signals arriving at once
- saner set of helpers for signal delivery introduced, several
architectures switched to using those."

In "ksm: remove old stable nodes more thoroughly" I said that I'd never
seen its WARN_ON_ONCE(page_mapped(page)). True at the time of writing,
but it soon appeared once I tried fuller tests on the whole series.
It turned out to be due to the KSM page migration itself: unmerge_and_
remove_all_rmap_items() failed to locate and replace all the KSM pages,
because of that hiatus in page migration when old pte has been replaced
by migration entry, but not yet by new pte. follow_page() finds no page
at that instant, but a KSM page reappears shortly after, without a
fault.
Add FOLL_MIGRATION flag, so follow_page() can do migration_entry_wait()
for KSM's break_cow(). I'd have preferred to avoid another flag, and do
it every time, in case someone else makes the same easy mistake; but did
not find another transgressor (the common get_user_pages() is of course
safe), and cannot be sure that every follow_page() caller is prepared to
sleep - ia64's xencomm_vtop()? Now, THP's wait_split_huge_page() can
already sleep there, since anon_vma locking was changed to mutex, but
maybe that's somehow excluded.

This change adds a follow_page_mask function which is equivalent to
follow_page, but with an extra page_mask argument.
follow_page_mask sets *page_mask to HPAGE_PMD_NR - 1 when it encounters
a THP page, and to 0 in other cases.
__get_user_pages() makes use of this in order to accelerate populating
THP ranges - that is, when both the pages and vmas arrays are NULL, we
don't need to iterate HPAGE_PMD_NR times to cover a single THP page (and
we also avoid taking mm->page_table_lock that many times).

Use long type for page counts in mm_populate() so as to avoid integer
overflow when running the following test code:
int main(void) {
void *p = mmap(NULL, 0x100000000000, PROT_READ,
MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANON, -1, 0);
printf("p: %p\n", p);
mlockall(MCL_CURRENT);
printf("done\n");
return 0;

Add 2 helpers (zone_end_pfn() and zone_spans_pfn()) to reduce code
duplication.
This also switches to using them in compaction (where an additional
variable needed to be renamed), page_alloc, vmstat, memory_hotplug, and
kmemleak.
Note that in compaction.c I avoid calling zone_end_pfn() repeatedly
because I expect at some point the sycronization issues with start_pfn &
spanned_pages will need fixing, either by actually using the seqlock or
clever memory barrier usage.

An inactive file list is considered low when its active counterpart is
bigger, regardless of whether it is a global zone LRU list or a memcg
zone LRU list. The only difference is in how the LRU size is assessed.
get_lru_size() does the right thing for both global and memcg reclaim
situations.

No functional change, but the only purpose of the offlining argument to
migrate_pages() etc, was to ensure that __unmap_and_move() could migrate a
KSM page for memory hotremove (which took ksm_thread_mutex) but not for
other callers. Now all cases are safe, remove the arg.

Switching merge_across_nodes after running KSM is liable to oops on stale
nodes still left over from the previous stable tree. It's not something
that people will often want to do, but it would be lame to demand a reboot
when they're trying to determine which merge_across_nodes setting is best.
How can this happen? We only permit switching merge_across_nodes when
pages_shared is 0, and usually set run 2 to force that beforehand, which
ought to unmerge everything: yet oopses still occur when you then run 1.
Three causes:
1. The old stable tree (built according to the inverse
merge_across_nodes) has not been fully torn down. A stable node
lingers until get_ksm_page() notices that the page it references no
longer references it: but the page is not necessarily freed as soon as
expected, particularly when swapcache.
Fix this with a pass through the old stable tree, applying
get_ksm_page() to each of the remaining nodes (most found stale and
removed immediately), with forced removal of any left over. Unless the
page is still mapped: I've not seen that case, it shouldn't occur, but
better to WARN_ON_ONCE and EBUSY than BUG.
2. __ksm_enter() has a nice little optimization, to insert the new mm
just behind ksmd's cursor, so there's a full pass for it to stabilize
(or be removed) before ksmd addresses it. Nice when ksmd is running,
but not so nice when we're trying to unmerge all mms: we were missing
those mms forked and inserted behind the unmerge cursor. Easily fixed
by inserting at the end when KSM_RUN_UNMERGE.
3. It is possible for a KSM page to be faulted back from swapcache
into an mm, just after unmerge_and_remove_all_rmap_items() scanned past
it. Fix this by copying on fault when KSM_RUN_UNMERGE: but that is
private to ksm.c, so dissolve the distinction between
ksm_might_need_to_copy() and ksm_does_need_to_copy(), doing it all in
the one call into ksm.c.
A long outstanding, unrelated bugfix sneaks in with that third fix:
ksm_does_need_to_copy() would copy from a !PageUptodate page (implying I/O
error when read in from swap) to a page which it then marks Uptodate. Fix
this case by not copying, letting do_swap_page() discover the error.

The function names page_xchg_last_nid(), page_last_nid() and
reset_page_last_nid() were judged to be inconsistent so rename them to a
struct_field_op style pattern. As it looked jarring to have
reset_page_mapcount() and page_nid_reset_last() beside each other in
memmap_init_zone(), this patch also renames reset_page_mapcount() to
page_mapcount_reset(). There are others like init_page_count() but as
it is used throughout the arch code a rename would likely cause more
conflicts than it is worth.

Andrew Morton pointed out that page_xchg_last_nid() and
reset_page_last_nid() were "getting nuttily large" and asked that it be
investigated.
reset_page_last_nid() is on the page free path and it would be
unfortunate to make that path more expensive than it needs to be. Due
to the internal use of page_xchg_last_nid() it is already too expensive
but fortunately, it should also be impossible for the page->flags to be
updated in parallel when we call reset_page_last_nid(). Instead of
unlining the function, it uses a simplier implementation that assumes no
parallel updates and should now be sufficiently short for inlining.
page_xchg_last_nid() is called in paths that are already quite expensive
(splitting huge page, fault handling, migration) and it is reasonable to
uninline. There was not really a good place to place the function but
mm/mmzone.c was the closest fit IMO.
This patch saved 128 bytes of text in the vmlinux file for the kernel
configuration I used for testing automatic NUMA balancing.

swap_lock is heavily contended when I test swap to 3 fast SSD (even
slightly slower than swap to 2 such SSD). The main contention comes
from swap_info_get(). This patch tries to fix the gap with adding a new
per-partition lock.
Global data like nr_swapfiles, total_swap_pages, least_priority and
swap_list are still protected by swap_lock.
nr_swap_pages is an atomic now, it can be changed without swap_lock. In
theory, it's possible get_swap_page() finds no swap pages but actually
there are free swap pages. But sounds not a big problem.
Accessing partition specific data (like scan_swap_map and so on) is only
protected by swap_info_struct.lock.
Changing swap_info_struct.flags need hold swap_lock and
swap_info_struct.lock, because scan_scan_map() will check it. read the
flags is ok with either the locks hold.
If both swap_lock and swap_info_struct.lock must be hold, we always hold
the former first to avoid deadlock.
swap_entry_free() can change swap_list. To delete that code, we add a
new highest_priority_index. Whenever get_swap_page() is called, we
check it. If it's valid, we use it.
It's a pity get_swap_page() still holds swap_lock(). But in practice,
swap_lock() isn't heavily contended in my test with this patch (or I can
say there are other much more heavier bottlenecks like TLB flush). And
BTW, looks get_swap_page() doesn't really need the lock. We never free
swap_info[] and we check SWAP_WRITEOK flag. The only risk without the
lock is we could swapout to some low priority swap, but we can quickly
recover after several rounds of swap, so sounds not a big deal to me.
But I'd prefer to fix this if it's a real problem.
"swap: make each swap partition have one address_space" improved the
swapout speed from 1.7G/s to 2G/s. This patch further improves the
speed to 2.3G/s, so around 15% improvement. It's a multi-process test,
so TLB flush isn't the biggest bottleneck before the patches.

When I use several fast SSD to do swap, swapper_space.tree_lock is
heavily contended. This makes each swap partition have one
address_space to reduce the lock contention. There is an array of
address_space for swap. The swap entry type is the index to the array.
In my test with 3 SSD, this increases the swapout throughput 20%.

page->_last_nid fits into page->flags on 64-bit. The unlikely 32-bit
NUMA configuration with NUMA Balancing will still need an extra page
field. As Peter notes "Completely dropping 32bit support for
CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING would simplify things, but it would also remove
the warning if we grow enough 64bit only page-flags to push the last-cpu
out."

!CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING
The current definitions for count_vm_numa_events() is wrong for
!CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING as the following would miss the side-effect.
count_vm_numa_events(NUMA_FOO, bar++);
There are no such users of count_vm_numa_events() but this patch fixes
it as it is a potential pitfall. Ideally both would be converted to
static inline but NUMA_PTE_UPDATES is not defined if
!CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING and creating dummy constants just to have a
static inline would be similarly clumsy.

Introduce the flag memalloc_noio in 'struct dev_pm_info' to help PM core
to teach mm not allocating memory with GFP_KERNEL flag for avoiding
probable deadlock.
As explained in the comment, any GFP_KERNEL allocation inside
runtime_resume() or runtime_suspend() on any one of device in the path
from one block or network device to the root device in the device tree
may cause deadlock, the introduced pm_runtime_set_memalloc_noio() sets
or clears the flag on device in the path recursively.

This patch introduces PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO on process flag('flags' field of
'struct task_struct'), so that the flag can be set by one task to avoid
doing I/O inside memory allocation in the task's context.
The patch trys to solve one deadlock problem caused by block device, and
the problem may happen at least in the below situations:
- during block device runtime resume, if memory allocation with
GFP_KERNEL is called inside runtime resume callback of any one of its
ancestors(or the block device itself), the deadlock may be triggered
inside the memory allocation since it might not complete until the block
device becomes active and the involed page I/O finishes. The situation
is pointed out first by Alan Stern. It is not a good approach to
convert all GFP_KERNEL[1] in the path into GFP_NOIO because several
subsystems may be involved(for example, PCI, USB and SCSI may be
involved for usb mass stoarage device, network devices involved too in
the iSCSI case)
- during block device runtime suspend, because runtime resume need to
wait for completion of concurrent runtime suspend.
- during error handling of usb mass storage deivce, USB bus reset will
be put on the device, so there shouldn't have any memory allocation with
GFP_KERNEL during USB bus reset, otherwise the deadlock similar with
above may be triggered. Unfortunately, any usb device may include one
mass storage interface in theory, so it requires all usb interface
drivers to handle the situation. In fact, most usb drivers don't know
how to handle bus reset on the device and don't provide .pre_set() and
.post_reset() callback at all, so USB core has to unbind and bind driver
for these devices. So it is still not practical to resort to GFP_NOIO
for solving the problem.
Also the introduced solution can be used by block subsystem or block
drivers too, for example, set the PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO flag before doing
actual I/O transfer.
It is not a good idea to convert all these GFP_KERNEL in the affected
path into GFP_NOIO because these functions doing that may be implemented
as library and will be called in many other contexts.
In fact, memalloc_noio_flags() can convert some of current static
GFP_NOIO allocation into GFP_KERNEL back in other non-affected contexts,
at least almost all GFP_NOIO in USB subsystem can be converted into
GFP_KERNEL after applying the approach and make allocation with GFP_NOIO
only happen in runtime resume/bus reset/block I/O transfer contexts
generally.
[1], several GFP_KERNEL allocation examples in runtime resume path
- pci subsystem
acpi_os_allocate
<-acpi_ut_allocate
<-ACPI_ALLOCATE_ZEROED
<-acpi_evaluate_object
<-__acpi_bus_set_power
<-acpi_bus_set_power

<-platform_pci_set_power_state
<-pci_platform_power_transition

<-pci_pm_runtime_resume
- usb subsystem
usb_get_status
<-finish_port_resume
<-usb_port_resume
<-generic_resume
<-usb_resume_device
<-usb_resume_both
<-usb_runtime_resume
- some individual usb drivers
usblp, uvc, gspca, most of dvb-usb-v2 media drivers, cpia2, az6007, ....
That is just what I have found. Unfortunately, this allocation can only
be found by human being now, and there should be many not found since
any function in the resume path(call tree) may allocate memory with
GFP_KERNEL.

Commit 92df3a723f84 ("mm: vmscan: throttle reclaim if encountering too
many dirty pages under writeback") introduced waiting on congested zones
based on a sane algorithm in shrink_inactive_list().
What this means is that there's no more need for throttling and
additional heuristics in balance_pgdat(). So, let's remove it and tidy

We now provide an option for users who don't want to specify physical
memory address in kernel commandline.
/*
* For movablemem_map=acpi:
*
* SRAT: |_____| |_____| |_________| |_________| ......
* node id: 0 1 1 2
* hotpluggable: n y y n
* movablemem_map: |_____| |_________|
*
* Using movablemem_map, we can prevent memblock from allocating memory
* on ZONE_MOVABLE at boot time.
*/
So user just specify movablemem_map=acpi, and the kernel will use
hotpluggable info in SRAT to determine which memory ranges should be set
as ZONE_MOVABLE.
If all the memory ranges in SRAT is hotpluggable, then no memory can be
used by kernel. But before parsing SRAT, memblock has already reserve
some memory ranges for other purposes, such as for kernel image, and so
on. We cannot prevent kernel from using these memory. So we need to
exclude these ranges even if these memory is hotpluggable.
Furthermore, there could be several memory ranges in the single node
which the kernel resides in. We may skip one range that have memory
reserved by memblock, but if the rest of memory is too small, then the
kernel will fail to boot. So, make the whole node which the kernel
resides in un-hotpluggable. Then the kernel has enough memory to use.
NOTE: Using this way will cause NUMA performance down because the
whole node will be set as ZONE_MOVABLE, and kernel cannot use memory
on it. If users don't want to lose NUMA performance, just don't use
it.

When implementing movablemem_map boot option, we introduced an array
movablemem_map.map[] to store the memory ranges to be set as
ZONE_MOVABLE.
Since ZONE_MOVABLE is the latst zone of a node, if user didn't specify
the whole node memory range, we need to extend it to the node end so
that we can use it to prevent memblock from allocating memory in the
ranges user didn't specify.
We now implement movablemem_map boot option like this:
/*
* For movablemem_map=nn[KMG]@ss[KMG]:
*
* SRAT: |_____| |_____| |_________| |_________| ......
* node id: 0 1 1 2
* user specified: |__| |___|
* movablemem_map: |___| |_________| |______| ......
*
* Using movablemem_map, we can prevent memblock from allocating memory
* on ZONE_MOVABLE at boot time.
*
* NOTE: In this case, SRAT info will be ingored.

On linux, the pages used by kernel could not be migrated. As a result,
if a memory range is used by kernel, it cannot be hot-removed. So if we
want to hot-remove memory, we should prevent kernel from using it.
The way now used to prevent this is specify a memory range by
movablemem_map boot option and set it as ZONE_MOVABLE.
But when the system is booting, memblock will allocate memory, and
reserve the memory for kernel. And before we parse SRAT, and know the
node memory ranges, memblock is working. And it may allocate memory in
ranges to be set as ZONE_MOVABLE. This memory can be used by kernel,
and never be freed.
So, let's parse SRAT before memblock is called first. And it is early
enough.
The first call of memblock_find_in_range_node() is in:
setup_arch()
|-->setup_real_mode()
so, this patch add a function early_parse_srat() to parse SRAT, and call
it before setup_real_mode() is called.
NOTE:
1) early_parse_srat() is called before numa_init(), and has initialized
numa_meminfo. So DO NOT clear numa_nodes_parsed in numa_init() and DO
NOT zero numa_meminfo in numa_init(), otherwise we will lose memory
numa info.
2) I don't know why using count of memory affinities parsed from SRAT
as a return value in original acpi_numa_init(). So I add a static
variable srat_mem_cnt to remember this count and use it as the return
value of the new acpi_numa_init()

try_offline_node() will be needed in the tristate
drivers/acpi/processor_driver.c.
The node will be offlined when all memory/cpu on the node have been
hotremoved. So we need the function try_offline_node() in cpu-hotplug
path.
If the memory-hotplug is disabled, and cpu-hotplug is enabled
1. no memory no the node
we don't online the node, and cpu's node is the nearest node.
2. the node contains some memory
the node has been onlined, and cpu's node is still needed
to migrate the sleep task on the cpu to the same node.
So we do nothing in try_offline_node() in this case.

When memory is removed, the corresponding pagetables should alse be
removed. This patch introduces some common APIs to support vmemmap
pagetable and x86_64 architecture direct mapping pagetable removing.
All pages of virtual mapping in removed memory cannot be freed if some
pages used as PGD/PUD include not only removed memory but also other
memory. So this patch uses the following way to check whether a page
can be freed or not.
1) When removing memory, the page structs of the removed memory are
filled with 0FD.
2) All page structs are filled with 0xFD on PT/PMD, PT/PMD can be
cleared. In this case, the page used as PT/PMD can be freed.
For direct mapping pages, update direct_pages_count[level] when we freed
their pagetables. And do not free the pages again because they were
freed when offlining.
For vmemmap pages, free the pages and their pagetables.
For larger pages, do not split them into smaller ones because there is
no way to know if the larger page has been split. As a result, there is
no way to decide when to split. We deal the larger pages in the
following way:
1) For direct mapped pages, all the pages were freed when they were
offlined. And since menmory offline is done section by section, all
the memory ranges being removed are aligned to PAGE_SIZE. So only need
to deal with unaligned pages when freeing vmemmap pages.
2) For vmemmap pages being used to store page_struct, if part of the
larger page is still in use, just fill the unused part with 0xFD. And
when the whole page is fulfilled with 0xFD, then free the larger page.

For removing memmap region of sparse-vmemmap which is allocated bootmem,
memmap region of sparse-vmemmap needs to be registered by
get_page_bootmem(). So the patch searches pages of virtual mapping and
registers the pages by get_page_bootmem().
NOTE: register_page_bootmem_memmap() is not implemented for ia64,
ppc, s390, and sparc. So introduce CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE
and revert register_page_bootmem_info_node() when platform doesn't
support it.
It's implemented by adding a new Kconfig option named
CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE, which will be automatically selected
by memory-hotplug feature fully supported archs(currently only on
x86_64).
Since we have 2 config options called MEMORY_HOTPLUG and
MEMORY_HOTREMOVE used for memory hot-add and hot-remove separately,
and codes in function register_page_bootmem_info_node() are only
used for collecting infomation for hot-remove, so reside it under
MEMORY_HOTREMOVE.
Besides page_isolation.c selected by MEMORY_ISOLATION under
MEMORY_HOTPLUG is also such case, move it too.

For removing memory, we need to remove page tables. But it depends on
architecture. So the patch introduce arch_remove_memory() for removing
page table. Now it only calls __remove_pages().
Note: __remove_pages() for some archtecuture is not implemented
(I don't know how to implement it for s390).

When (hot)adding memory into system, /sys/firmware/memmap/X/{end, start,
type} sysfs files are created. But there is no code to remove these
files. This patch implements the function to remove them.
We cannot free firmware_map_entry which is allocated by bootmem because
there is no way to do so when the system is up. But we can at least
remember the address of that memory and reuse the storage when the
memory is added next time.
This patch also introduces a new list map_entries_bootmem to link the
map entries allocated by bootmem when they are removed, and a lock to
protect it. And these entries will be reused when the memory is
hot-added again.
The idea is suggestted by Andrew Morton.
NOTE: It is unsafe to return an entry pointer and release the
map_entries_lock. So we should not hold the map_entries_lock
separately in firmware_map_find_entry() and
firmware_map_remove_entry(). Hold the map_entries_lock across find
and remove /sys/firmware/memmap/X operation.
And also, users of these two functions need to be careful to
hold the lock when using these two functions.

removing memory
We remove the memory like this:
1. lock memory hotplug
2. offline a memory block
3. unlock memory hotplug
4. repeat 1-3 to offline all memory blocks
5. lock memory hotplug
6. remove memory(TODO)
7. unlock memory hotplug
All memory blocks must be offlined before removing memory. But we don't
hold the lock in the whole operation. So we should check whether all
memory blocks are offlined before step6. Otherwise, kernel maybe
panicked.
Offlining a memory block and removing a memory device can be two
different operations. Users can just offline some memory blocks without
removing the memory device. For this purpose, the kernel has held
lock_memory_hotplug() in __offline_pages(). To reuse the code for
memory hot-remove, we repeat step 1-3 to offline all the memory blocks,
repeatedly lock and unlock memory hotplug, but not hold the memory
hotplug lock in the whole operation.

do_mmap_pgoff() rounds up the desired size to the next PAGE_SIZE
multiple, however there was no equivalent code in mm_populate(), which
caused issues.
This could be fixed by introduced the same rounding in mm_populate(),
however I think it's preferable to make do_mmap_pgoff() return populate
as a size rather than as a boolean, so we don't have to duplicate the
size rounding logic in mm_populate().

The vm_populate() code populates user mappings without constantly
holding the mmap_sem. This makes it susceptible to racy userspace
programs: the user mappings may change while vm_populate() is running,
and in this case vm_populate() may end up populating the new mapping
instead of the old one.
In order to reduce the possibility of userspace getting surprised by
this behavior, this change introduces the VM_POPULATE vma flag which
gets set on vmas we want vm_populate() to work on. This way
vm_populate() may still end up populating the new mapping after such a
race, but only if the new mapping is also one that the user has
requested (using MAP_SHARED, MAP_LOCKED or mlock) to be populated.

In find_extend_vma(), we don't need mlock_vma_pages_range() to verify
the vma type - we know we're working with a stack. So, we can call
directly into __mlock_vma_pages_range(), and remove the last
make_pages_present() call site.
Note that we don't use mm_populate() here, so we can't release the
mmap_sem while allocating new stack pages. This is deemed acceptable,
because the stack vmas grow by a bounded number of pages at a time, and
these are anon pages so we don't have to read from disk to populate
them.

After the MAP_POPULATE handling has been moved to mmap_region() call
sites, the only remaining use of the flags argument is to pass the
MAP_NORESERVE flag. This can be just as easily handled by
do_mmap_pgoff(), so do that and remove the mmap_region() flags
parameter.

When creating new mappings using the MAP_POPULATE / MAP_LOCKED flags (or
with MCL_FUTURE in effect), we want to populate the pages within the
newly created vmas. This may take a while as we may have to read pages
from disk, so ideally we want to do this outside of the write-locked
mmap_sem region.
This change introduces mm_populate(), which is used to defer populating
such mappings until after the mmap_sem write lock has been released.
This is implemented as a generalization of the former do_mlock_pages(),
which accomplished the same task but was using during mlock() /
mlockall().
