commit b7f0554a56f21fb3e636a627450a9add030889be upstream.

Until there is a solution to the dma-to-dax vs truncate problem it is
not safe to allow V4L2, Exynos, and other frame vector users to create
long standing / irrevocable memory registrations against filesytem-dax
vmas.

commit 2bb6d2837083de722bfdc369cb0d76ce188dd9b4 upstream.

Patch series "introduce get_user_pages_longterm()", v2.

Here is a new get_user_pages api for cases where a driver intends to
keep an elevated page count indefinitely.  This is distinct from usages
like iov_iter_get_pages where the elevated page counts are transient.
The iov_iter_get_pages cases immediately turn around and submit the
pages to a device driver which will put_page when the i/o operation
completes (under kernel control).

In the longterm case userspace is responsible for dropping the page
reference at some undefined point in the future.  This is untenable for
filesystem-dax case where the filesystem is in control of the lifetime
of the block / page and needs reasonable limits on how long it can wait
for pages in a mapping to become idle.

Fixing filesystems to actually wait for dax pages to be idle before
blocks from a truncate/hole-punch operation are repurposed is saved for
a later patch series.

Also, allowing longterm registration of dax mappings is a future patch
series that introduces a "map with lease" semantic where the kernel can
revoke a lease and force userspace to drop its page references.

I have also tagged these for -stable to purposely break cases that might
assume that longterm memory registrations for filesystem-dax mappings
were supported by the kernel.  The behavior regression this policy
change implies is one of the reasons we maintain the "dax enabled.
Warning: EXPERIMENTAL, use at your own risk" notification when mounting
a filesystem in dax mode.

It is worth noting the device-dax interface does not suffer the same
constraints since it does not support file space management operations
like hole-punch.

This patch (of 4):

Until there is a solution to the dma-to-dax vs truncate problem it is
not safe to allow long standing memory registrations against
filesytem-dax vmas.  Device-dax vmas do not have this problem and are
explicitly allowed.

This is temporary until a "memory registration with layout-lease"
mechanism can be implemented for the affected sub-systems (RDMA and
V4L2).

<title>mm: avoid spurious 'bad pmd' warning messages</title>

commit d0f0931de936a0a468d7e59284d39581c16d3a73 upstream.

When the pmd_devmap() checks were added by 5c7fb56e5e3f ("mm, dax:
dax-pmd vs thp-pmd vs hugetlbfs-pmd") to add better support for DAX huge
pages, they were all added to the end of if() statements after existing
pmd_trans_huge() checks.  So, things like:

  -       if (pmd_trans_huge(*pmd))
  +       if (pmd_trans_huge(*pmd) || pmd_devmap(*pmd))

When further checks were added after pmd_trans_unstable() checks by
commit 7267ec008b5c ("mm: postpone page table allocation until we have
page to map") they were also added at the end of the conditional:

  +       if (pmd_trans_unstable(fe-&gt;pmd) || pmd_devmap(*fe-&gt;pmd))

This ordering is fine for pmd_trans_huge(), but doesn't work for
pmd_trans_unstable().  This is because DAX huge pages trip the bad_pmd()
check inside of pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() (called by
pmd_trans_unstable()), which prints out a warning and returns 1.  So, we
do end up doing the right thing, but only after spamming dmesg with
suspicious looking messages:

  mm/pgtable-generic.c:39: bad pmd ffff8808daa49b88(84000001006000a5)

Reorder these checks in a helper so that pmd_devmap() is checked first,
avoiding the error messages, and add a comment explaining why the
ordering is important.

commit f1f5929cd9715c1cdfe07a890f12ac7d2c5304ec upstream.

Compiling shmem.c with SHMEM and TRANSAPRENT_HUGE_PAGECACHE enabled
raises warnings on two unused functions when CONFIG_TMPFS and
CONFIG_SYSFS are both disabled:

  mm/shmem.c:390:20: warning: `shmem_format_huge' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
   static const char *shmem_format_huge(int huge)
                      ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  mm/shmem.c:373:12: warning: `shmem_parse_huge' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
   static int shmem_parse_huge(const char *str)
               ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A conditional compilation on tmpfs or sysfs removes the warnings.

After enabling -Wmaybe-uninitialized warnings, we get a false-postive
warning for shmem:

  mm/shmem.c: In function `shmem_getpage_gfp':
  include/linux/spinlock.h:332:21: error: `info' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

This can be easily avoided, since the correct 'info' pointer is known at
the time we first enter the function, so we can simply move the
initialization up.  Moving it before the first label avoids the warning
and lets us remove two later initializations.

Note that the function is so hard to read that it not only confuses the
compiler, but also most readers and without this patch it could\ easily
break if one of the 'goto's changed.

[ Upstream commit 7f6f60a1ba52538c16f26930bfbcfe193d9d746a ]

earlyprintk=efi,keep does not work any more with a warning
in mm/early_ioremap.c: WARN_ON(system_state != SYSTEM_BOOTING):
Boot just hangs because of the earlyprintk within the earlyprintk
implementation code itself.

This is caused by a new introduced middle state in:

  69a78ff226fe ("init: Introduce SYSTEM_SCHEDULING state")

early_ioremap() is fine in both SYSTEM_BOOTING and SYSTEM_SCHEDULING
states, original condition should be updated accordingly.

<title>Provide a function to create a NUL-terminated string from unterminated data</title>

commit f35157417215ec138c920320c746fdb3e04ef1d5 upstream.

Provide a function, kmemdup_nul(), that will create a NUL-terminated string
from an unterminated character array where the length is known in advance.

This is better than kstrndup() in situations where we already know the
string length as the strnlen() in kstrndup() is superfluous.

<title>mm,vmscan: Make unregister_shrinker() no-op if register_shrinker() failed.</title>

commit bb422a738f6566f7439cd347d54e321e4fe92a9f upstream.

Syzbot caught an oops at unregister_shrinker() because combination of
commit 1d3d4437eae1bb29 ("vmscan: per-node deferred work") and fault
injection made register_shrinker() fail and the caller of
register_shrinker() did not check for failure.

----------

Since allowing register_shrinker() callers to call unregister_shrinker()
when register_shrinker() failed can simplify error recovery path, this
patch makes unregister_shrinker() no-op when register_shrinker() failed.
Also, reset shrinker-&gt;nr_deferred in case unregister_shrinker() was
by error called twice.

----------

Since allowing register_shrinker() callers to call unregister_shrinker()
when register_shrinker() failed can simplify error recovery path, this
patch makes unregister_shrinker() no-op when register_shrinker() failed.
Also, reset shrinker-&gt;nr_deferred in case unregister_shrinker() was
by error called twice.

commit af27d9403f5b80685b79c88425086edccecaf711 upstream.

We get a warning about some slow configurations in randconfig kernels:

  mm/memory.c:83:2: error: #warning Unfortunate NUMA and NUMA Balancing config, growing page-frame for last_cpupid. [-Werror=cpp]

The warning is reasonable by itself, but gets in the way of randconfig
build testing, so I'm hiding it whenever CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST is set.

The warning was added in 2013 in commit 75980e97dacc ("mm: fold
page-&gt;_last_nid into page-&gt;flags where possible").

[ Upstream commit bde5f6bc68db51128f875a756e9082a6c6ff7b4c ]

kmemleak_scan() will scan struct page for each node and it can be really
large and resulting in a soft lockup.  We have seen a soft lockup when
do scan while compile kernel:

  watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#53 stuck for 22s! [bash:10287]
 [...]
  Call Trace:
   kmemleak_scan+0x21a/0x4c0
   kmemleak_write+0x312/0x350
   full_proxy_write+0x5a/0xa0
   __vfs_write+0x33/0x150

   SyS_write+0x52/0xc0
   do_syscall_64+0x61/0x1a0
   entry_SYSCALL64_slow_path+0x25/0x25

Fix this by adding cond_resched every MAX_SCAN_SIZE.
