commit 93407472a21b82f39c955ea7787e5bc7da100642 upstream.

Replace all 1 &lt;&lt; inode-&gt;i_blkbits and (1 &lt;&lt; inode-&gt;i_blkbits) in fs
branch.

This patch also fixes multiple checkpatch warnings: WARNING: Prefer
'unsigned int' to bare use of 'unsigned'

Thanks to Andrew Morton for suggesting more appropriate function instead
of macro.

<title>mm: fix false-positive WARN_ON() in truncate/invalidate for hugetlb</title>

<content type='text'>
Hugetlb pages have -&gt;index in size of the huge pages (PMD_SIZE or
PUD_SIZE), not in PAGE_SIZE as other types of pages.  This means we
cannot user page_to_pgoff() to check whether we've got the right page
for the radix-tree index.

Let's introduce page_to_index() which would return radix-tree index for
given page.

We will be able to get rid of this once hugetlb will be switched to
multi-order entries.

For shmem/tmpfs we only need to tweak truncate_inode_page() and
invalidate_mapping_pages().

truncate_inode_pages_range() and invalidate_inode_pages2_range() are
adjusted to use page_to_pgoff().

<title>dax: New fault locking</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently DAX page fault locking is racy.

CPU0 (write fault)		CPU1 (read fault)

__dax_fault()			__dax_fault()
  get_block(inode, block, &amp;bh, 0) -&gt; not mapped
				  get_block(inode, block, &amp;bh, 0)
				    -&gt; not mapped
  if (!buffer_mapped(&amp;bh))
    if (vmf-&gt;flags &amp; FAULT_FLAG_WRITE)
      get_block(inode, block, &amp;bh, 1) -&gt; allocates blocks
  if (page) -&gt; no
				  if (!buffer_mapped(&amp;bh))
				    if (vmf-&gt;flags &amp; FAULT_FLAG_WRITE) {
				    } else {
				      dax_load_hole();
				    }
  dax_insert_mapping()

And we are in a situation where we fail in dax_radix_entry() with -EIO.

Another problem with the current DAX page fault locking is that there is
no race-free way to clear dirty tag in the radix tree. We can always
end up with clean radix tree and dirty data in CPU cache.

We fix the first problem by introducing locking of exceptional radix
tree entries in DAX mappings acting very similarly to page lock and thus
synchronizing properly faults against the same mapping index. The same
lock can later be used to avoid races when clearing radix tree dirty
tag.

<title>mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros</title>

<id>09cbfeaf1a5a67bfb3201e0c83c810cecb2efa5a</id>
<content type='text'>
PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

This promise never materialized.  And unlikely will.

We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE.  And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.

Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.

Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special.  They are
not.

The changes are pretty straight-forward:

 - &lt;foo&gt; &lt;&lt; (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -&gt; &lt;foo&gt;;

 - &lt;foo&gt; &gt;&gt; (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -&gt; &lt;foo&gt;;

 - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -&gt; PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};

 - page_cache_get() -&gt; get_page();

 - page_cache_release() -&gt; put_page();

This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below.  For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.

The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.

There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach.  I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch.  Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

There are several users that nest lock_page_memcg() inside lock_page()
to prevent page-&gt;mem_cgroup from changing.  But the page lock prevents
pages from moving between cgroups, so that is unnecessary overhead.

Remove lock_page_memcg() in contexts with locked contexts and fix the
debug code in the page stat functions to be okay with the page lock.

Now that migration doesn't clear page-&gt;mem_cgroup of live pages anymore,
it's safe to make lock_page_memcg() and the memcg stat functions take
pages, and spare the callers from memcg objects.

<content type='text'>
These patches tag the page cache radix tree eviction entries with the
memcg an evicted page belonged to, thus making per-cgroup LRU reclaim
work properly and be as adaptive to new cache workingsets as global
reclaim already is.

This should have been part of the original thrash detection patch
series, but was deferred due to the complexity of those patches.

This patch (of 5):

So far the only sites that needed to exclude charge migration to
stabilize page-&gt;mem_cgroup have been per-cgroup page statistics, hence
the name mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat().  But per-cgroup thrash detection
will add another site that needs to ensure page-&gt;mem_cgroup lifetime.

Rename these locking functions to the more generic lock_page_memcg() and
unlock_page_memcg().  Since charge migration is a cgroup1 feature only,
we might be able to delete it at some point, and these now easy to

These patches tag the page cache radix tree eviction entries with the
memcg an evicted page belonged to, thus making per-cgroup LRU reclaim
work properly and be as adaptive to new cache workingsets as global
reclaim already is.

This should have been part of the original thrash detection patch
series, but was deferred due to the complexity of those patches.

This patch (of 5):

So far the only sites that needed to exclude charge migration to
stabilize page-&gt;mem_cgroup have been per-cgroup page statistics, hence
the name mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat().  But per-cgroup thrash detection
will add another site that needs to ensure page-&gt;mem_cgroup lifetime.

Rename these locking functions to the more generic lock_page_memcg() and
unlock_page_memcg().  Since charge migration is a cgroup1 feature only,
we might be able to delete it at some point, and these now easy to
identify locking sites along with it.

<title>dax: support dirty DAX entries in radix tree</title>

<id>f9fe48bece3af2d60e1bad65db4825f5a025dd36</id>
<content type='text'>
Add support for tracking dirty DAX entries in the struct address_space
radix tree.  This tree is already used for dirty page writeback, and it
already supports the use of exceptional (non struct page*) entries.

In order to properly track dirty DAX pages we will insert new
exceptional entries into the radix tree that represent dirty DAX PTE or
PMD pages.  These exceptional entries will also contain the writeback
addresses for the PTE or PMD faults that we can use at fsync/msync time.

There are currently two types of exceptional entries (shmem and shadow)
that can be placed into the radix tree, and this adds a third.  We rely
on the fact that only one type of exceptional entry can be found in a
given radix tree based on its usage.  This happens for free with DAX vs
shmem but we explicitly prevent shadow entries from being added to radix
trees for DAX mappings.

The only shadow entries that would be generated for DAX radix trees
would be to track zero page mappings that were created for holes.  These
pages would receive minimal benefit from having shadow entries, and the
choice to have only one type of exceptional entry in a given radix tree
makes the logic simpler both in clear_exceptional_entry() and in the
rest of DAX.

<title>memcg: add per cgroup dirty page accounting</title>

<id>c4843a7593a9df3ff5b1806084cefdfa81dd7c79</id>
<content type='text'>
When modifying PG_Dirty on cached file pages, update the new
MEM_CGROUP_STAT_DIRTY counter.  This is done in the same places where
global NR_FILE_DIRTY is managed.  The new memcg stat is visible in the
per memcg memory.stat cgroupfs file.  The most recent past attempt at
this was http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cgroups/8632

The new accounting supports future efforts to add per cgroup dirty
page throttling and writeback.  It also helps an administrator break
down a container's memory usage and provides evidence to understand
memcg oom kills (the new dirty count is included in memcg oom kill
messages).

The ability to move page accounting between memcg
(memory.move_charge_at_immigrate) makes this accounting more
complicated than the global counter.  The existing
mem_cgroup_{begin,end}_page_stat() lock is used to serialize move
accounting with stat updates.
Typical update operation:
	memcg = mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat(page)
	if (TestSetPageDirty()) {
		[...]
		mem_cgroup_update_page_stat(memcg)
	}
	mem_cgroup_end_page_stat(memcg)

Summary of mem_cgroup_end_page_stat() overhead:
- Without CONFIG_MEMCG it's a no-op
- With CONFIG_MEMCG and no inter memcg task movement, it's just
  rcu_read_lock()
- With CONFIG_MEMCG and inter memcg  task movement, it's
  rcu_read_lock() + spin_lock_irqsave()

A memcg parameter is added to several routines because their callers
now grab mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat() which returns the memcg later
needed by for mem_cgroup_update_page_stat().

Because mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat() may disable interrupts, some
adjustments are needed:
- move __mark_inode_dirty() from __set_page_dirty() to its caller.
  __mark_inode_dirty() locking does not want interrupts disabled.
- use spin_lock_irqsave(tree_lock) rather than spin_lock_irq() in
  __delete_from_page_cache(), replace_page_cache_page(),
  invalidate_complete_page2(), and __remove_mapping().
