mm: remove CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK

2018-10-31T15:54:15+00:00

All architecures use memblock for early memory management. There is no need
for the CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK configuration option.

mm: remove CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM

2018-10-31T15:54:14+00:00

All achitectures select NO_BOOTMEM which essentially becomes 'Y' for any
kernel configuration and therefore it can be removed.

Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux

2018-10-22T16:30:06+00:00

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
 "Apart from some new arm64 features and clean-ups, this also contains
  the core mmu_gather changes for tracking the levels of the page table
  being cleared and a minor update to the generic
  compat_sys_sigaltstack() introducing COMPAT_SIGMINSKSZ.

  Summary:

   - Core mmu_gather changes which allow tracking the levels of
     page-table being cleared together with the arm64 low-level flushing
     routines

   - Support for the new ARMv8.5 PSTATE.SSBS bit which can be used to
     mitigate Spectre-v4 dynamically without trapping to EL3 firmware

   - Introduce COMPAT_SIGMINSTKSZ for use in compat_sys_sigaltstack

   - Optimise emulation of MRS instructions to ID_* registers on ARMv8.4

   - Support for Common Not Private (CnP) translations allowing threads
     of the same CPU to share the TLB entries

   - Accelerated crc32 routines

   - Move swapper_pg_dir to the rodata section

   - Trap WFI instruction executed in user space

   - ARM erratum 1188874 workaround (arch_timer)

   - Miscellaneous fixes and clean-ups"

mm/memory: Move mmu_gather and TLB invalidation code into its own file

In preparation for maintaining the mmu_gather code as its own entity,
move the implementation out of memory.c and into its own file.

vfs: implement readahead(2) using POSIX_FADV_WILLNEED

2018-08-30T18:01:32+00:00

The implementation of readahead(2) syscall is identical to that of
fadvise64(POSIX_FADV_WILLNEED) with a few exceptions:
1. readahead(2) returns -EINVAL for !mapping->a_ops and fadvise64()
   ignores the request and returns 0.
2. fadvise64() checks for integer overflow corner case
3. fadvise64() calls the optional filesystem fadvise() file operation

Unite the two implementations by calling vfs_fadvise() from readahead(2)
syscall. Check the !mapping->a_ops in readahead(2) syscall to preserve
documented syscall ABI behaviour.

mm: restructure memfd code

2018-06-08T00:34:35+00:00

With the addition of memfd hugetlbfs support, we now have the situation
where memfd depends on TMPFS -or- HUGETLBFS.  Previously, memfd was only
supported on tmpfs, so it made sense that the code resided in shmem.c.
In the current code, memfd is only functional if TMPFS is defined.  If
HUGETLFS is defined and TMPFS is not defined, then memfd functionality
will not be available for hugetlbfs.  This does not cause BUGs, just a
lack of potentially desired functionality.

Code is restructured in the following way:
- include/linux/memfd.h is a new file containing memfd specific
  definitions previously contained in shmem_fs.h.
- mm/memfd.c is a new file containing memfd specific code previously
  contained in shmem.c.
- memfd specific code is removed from shmem_fs.h and shmem.c.
- A new config option MEMFD_CREATE is added that is defined if TMPFS
  or HUGETLBFS is defined.

No functional changes are made to the code: restructuring only.

mm/swap_slots.c: use conditional compilation

2018-04-06T04:36:24+00:00

For mm/swap_slots.c, use the traditional Linux method of conditional
compilation and linking instead of always compiling it by using #ifdef
CONFIG_SWAP and #endif for the entire source file (excluding header
files).

mm: add infrastructure for get_user_pages_fast() benchmarking

2017-11-18T00:10:04+00:00

Performance of get_user_pages_fast() is critical for some workloads, but
it's tricky to test it directly.

This patch provides /sys/kernel/debug/gup_benchmark that helps with
testing performance of it.

See tools/testing/selftests/vm/gup_benchmark.c for userspace
counterpart.
