Currently, next_cookie is used as the infinity value. In most cases,
this should work fine but it theoretically could bring subtle behavior
difference between async_synchronize_full() and
async_synchronize_full_domain().
async_synchronize_full() keeps waiting until there's no registered
async_entry left regardless of what next_cookie was when the function
was called. It guarantees that the queue is completely drained at
least once before returning.
However, async_synchronize_full_domain() doesn't. It synchronizes
upto next_cookie and if further async jobs are queued after the
next_cookie value to synchronize is decided, they won't be waited for.
For unrelated async jobs, the behavior difference doesn't matter;
however, if async jobs which are related (nested or otherwise) to the
executing ones are queued while sychronization is in progress, the
resulting behavior difference could be problematic.
This can be easily fixed by using ULLONG_MAX as the infinity value
instead. Define ASYNC_COOKIE_MAX as ULLONG_MAX and use it as the
infinity value for synchronization. This makes
async_synchronize_full_domain() fully drain the domain at least once
before returning, making its behavior match async_synchronize_full().

In the beginning, running lists were literal struct list_heads. Later
on, struct async_domain was added. For some reason, while the
conversion substituted list_heads with async_domains, the variable
names weren't fully converted. In more places, "running" was used for
struct async_domain while other places adopted new "domain" name.
The situation is made much worse by having async_domain's running list
named "domain" and async_entry's field pointing to async_domain named
"running".
So, we end up with mix of "running" and "domain" for variable names
for async_domain, with the field names of async_domain and async_entry
swapped between "running" and "domain".
It feels almost intentionally made to be as confusing as possible.
Bring some sanity by
* Renaming all async_domain variables "domain".
* s/async_running/async_dfl_domain/
* s/async_domain->domain/async_domain->running/
* s/async_entry->running/async_entry->domain/

Synchronous requet_module() from an async worker can lead to deadlock
because module init path may invoke async_synchronize_full(). The
async worker waits for request_module() to complete and the module
loading waits for the async task to finish. This bug happened in the
block layer because of default elevator auto-loading.
Block layer has been updated not to do default elevator auto-loading
and it has been decided to disallow synchronous request_module() from
async workers.
Trigger WARN_ON_ONCE() on synchronous request_module() from async
workers.
For more details, please refer to the following thread.

Block layer allows selecting an elevator which is built as a module to
be selected as system default via kernel param "elevator=". This is
achieved by automatically invoking request_module() whenever a new
block device is initialized and the elevator is not available.
This led to an interesting deadlock problem involving async and module
init. Block device probing running off an async job invokes
request_module(). While the module is being loaded, it performs
async_synchronize_full() which ends up waiting for the async job which
is already waiting for request_module() to finish, leading to
deadlock.
Invoking request_module() from deep in block device init path is
already nasty in itself. It seems best to avoid these situations from
the beginning by moving on-demand module loading out of block init
path.
The previous patch made sure that the default elevator module is
loaded early during boot if available. This patch removes on-demand
loading of the default elevator from elevator init path. As the
module would have been loaded during boot, userland-visible behavior
difference should be minimal.
For more details, please refer to the following thread.
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1420814
v2: The bool parameter was named @request_module which conflicted with
request_module(). This built okay w/ CONFIG_MODULES because
request_module() was defined as a macro. W/o CONFIG_MODULES, it
causes build breakage. Rename the parameter to @try_loading.

Commit 083b804c4d3e ("async: use workqueue for worker pool") made it
possible that async jobs are moved from pending to running out-of-order.
While pending async jobs will be queued and dispatched for execution in
the same order, nothing guarantees they'll enter "1) move self to the
running queue" of async_run_entry_fn() in the same order.
Before the conversion, async implemented its own worker pool. An async
worker, upon being woken up, fetches the first item from the pending
list, which kept the executing lists sorted. The conversion to
workqueue was done by adding work_struct to each async_entry and async
just schedules the work item. The queueing and dispatching of such work
items are still in order but now each worker thread is associated with a
specific async_entry and moves that specific async_entry to the
executing list. So, depending on which worker reaches that point
earlier, which is non-deterministic, we may end up moving an async_entry
with larger cookie before one with smaller one.
This broke __lowest_in_progress(). running->domain may not be properly
sorted and is not guaranteed to contain lower cookies than pending list
when not empty. Fix it by ensuring sort-inserting to the running list
and always looking at both pending and running when trying to determine
the lowest cookie.
Over time, the async synchronization implementation became quite messy.
We better restructure it such that each async_entry is linked to two
lists - one global and one per domain - and not move it when execution
starts. There's no reason to distinguish pending and running. They
behave the same for synchronization purposes.

putreg() assumes that the tracee is not running and pt_regs_access() can
safely play with its stack. However a killed tracee can return from
ptrace_stop() to the low-level asm code and do RESTORE_REST, this means
that debugger can actually read/modify the kernel stack until the tracee
does SAVE_REST again.
set_task_blockstep() can race with SIGKILL too and in some sense this
race is even worse, the very fact the tracee can be woken up breaks the
logic.
As Linus suggested we can clear TASK_WAKEKILL around the arch_ptrace()
call, this ensures that nobody can ever wakeup the tracee while the
debugger looks at it. Not only this fixes the mentioned problems, we
can do some cleanups/simplifications in arch_ptrace() paths.
Probably ptrace_unfreeze_traced() needs more callers, for example it
makes sense to make the tracee killable for oom-killer before
access_process_vm().
While at it, add the comment into may_ptrace_stop() to explain why
ptrace_stop() still can't rely on SIGKILL and signal_pending_state().

Cleanup and preparation for the next change.
signal_wake_up(resume => true) is overused. None of ptrace/jctl callers
actually want to wakeup a TASK_WAKEKILL task, but they can't specify the
necessary mask.
Turn signal_wake_up() into signal_wake_up_state(state), reintroduce
signal_wake_up() as a trivial helper, and add ptrace_signal_wake_up()
which adds __TASK_TRACED.
This way ptrace_signal_wake_up() can work "inside" ptrace_request()
even if the tracee doesn't have the TASK_WAKEKILL bit set.

If some small bios of dirty node pages are supposed to be issued during the
sequential data writes, there-in well-produced consecutive data bios are able
to be split by the small node bios, resulting in performance degradation.
So, let's collect a number of dirty node pages until reaching a threshold.
And, by default, I set the threshold as 2MB, a segment size.
This improves sequential write performance on i5, 512GB SSD (830 w/ SATA2) as

A kprobe was added to the init_once() function in the fat module on load.
But this happened before ftrace could have touched the code. As ftrace
didn't run yet, the kprobe system had no idea it was a ftrace point and
simply added a breakpoint to the code (0xcc in the cc:bb:d2:4b:e1).
Then when ftrace went to modify the location from a call to mcount/fentry
into a nop, it didn't see a call op, but instead it saw the breakpoint op
and not knowing what to do with it, ftrace shut itself down.
The solution is to simply give the ftrace module notifier the max priority.
This should have been done regardless, as the core code ftrace modification
also happens very early on in boot up. This makes the module modification
closer to core modification.

This happens because sockets do not define the removexattr operation.
Before removing the xattr, verify the removexattr function pointer is
not NULL.

Commit 1fb9341ac348 ("module: put modules in list much earlier") moved
some of the module initialization code around, and in the process
changed the exit paths too. But for the duplicate export symbol error
case the change made the ddebug_cleanup path jump to after the module
mutex unlock, even though it happens with the mutex held.
Rusty has some patches to split this function up into some helper
functions, hopefully the mess of complex goto targets will go away
eventually.

if we have a move notify callback, when moving fails, we call move notify
the opposite way around, however this ends up with *mem containing the mm_node
from the bo, which means we double free it. This is a follow on to the previous
fix.

When we are using memcpy to move objects around, and we fail to memcpy
due to lack of memory to populate or failure to finish the copy, we don't
want to destroy the mm_node that has been copied into old_copy.
While working on a new kms driver that uses memcpy, if I overallocated bo's
up to the memory limits, and eviction failed, then machine would oops soon
after due to having an active bo with an already freed drm_mm embedded in it,
freeing it a second time didn't end well.

The ia64 function "thread_matches()" has no users since commit
e868a55c2a8c ("[IA64] remove find_thread_for_addr()"). Remove it.
This allows us to make ptrace_check_attach() static to kernel/ptrace.c,
which is good since we'll need to change the semantics of it and fix up
all the callers.

This patch adds default module loading and uses it to load the default
block elevator. During boot, it's called right after initramfs or
initrd is made available and right before control is passed to
userland. This ensures that as long as the modules are available in
the usual places in initramfs, initrd or the root filesystem, the
default modules are loaded as soon as possible.
This will replace the on-demand elevator module loading from elevator
init path.
v2: Fixed build breakage when !CONFIG_BLOCK. Reported by kbuild test
robot.
