Oleg has pointed out that can simplify both oom_adj_{read,write} and
oom_score_adj_{read,write} even further and drop the sighand lock. The
main purpose of the lock was to protect p->signal from going away but this
will not happen since ea6d290ca34c ("signals: make task_struct->signal
immutable/refcountable").
The other role of the lock was to synchronize different writers,
especially those with CAP_SYS_RESOURCE. Introduce a mutex for this
purpose. Later patches will need this lock anyway.

Series "Handle oom bypass more gracefully", V5
The following 10 patches should put some order to very rare cases of mm
shared between processes and make the paths which bypass the oom killer
oom reapable and therefore much more reliable finally. Even though mm
shared outside of thread group is rare (either vforked tasks for a short
period, use_mm by kernel threads or exotic thread model of
clone(CLONE_VM) without CLONE_SIGHAND) it is better to cover them. Not
only it makes the current oom killer logic quite hard to follow and
reason about it can lead to weird corner cases. E.g. it is possible to
select an oom victim which shares the mm with unkillable process or
bypass the oom killer even when other processes sharing the mm are still
alive and other weird cases.
Patch 1 drops bogus task_lock and mm check from oom_{score_}adj_write.
This can be considered a bug fix with a low impact as nobody has noticed
for years.
Patch 2 drops sighand lock because it is not needed anymore as pointed
by Oleg.
Patch 3 is a clean up of oom_score_adj handling and a preparatory work
for later patches.
Patch 4 enforces oom_adj_score to be consistent between processes
sharing the mm to behave consistently with the regular thread groups.
This can be considered a user visible behavior change because one thread
group updating oom_score_adj will affect others which share the same mm
via clone(CLONE_VM). I argue that this should be acceptable because we
already have the same behavior for threads in the same thread group and
sharing the mm without signal struct is just a different model of
threading. This is probably the most controversial part of the series,
I would like to find some consensus here. There were some suggestions
to hook some counter/oom_score_adj into the mm_struct but I feel that
this is not necessary right now and we can rely on proc handler +
oom_kill_process to DTRT. I can be convinced otherwise but I strongly
think that whatever we do the userspace has to have a way to see the
current oom priority as consistently as possible.
Patch 5 makes sure that no vforked task is selected if it is sharing the
mm with oom unkillable task.
Patch 6 ensures that all user tasks sharing the mm are killed which in
turn makes sure that all oom victims are oom reapable.
Patch 7 guarantees that task_will_free_mem will always imply reapable
bypass of the oom killer.
Patch 8 is new in this version and it addresses an issue pointed out by
0-day OOM report where an oom victim was reaped several times.
Patch 9 puts an upper bound on how many times oom_reaper tries to reap a
task and hides it from the oom killer to move on when no progress can be
made. This will give an upper bound to how long an oom_reapable task
can block the oom killer from selecting another victim if the oom_reaper
is not able to reap the victim.
Patch 10 tries to plug the (hopefully) last hole when we can still lock
up when the oom victim is shared with oom unkillable tasks (kthreads and
global init). We just try to be best effort in that case and rather
fallback to kill something else than risk a lockup.
This patch (of 10):
Both oom_adj_write and oom_score_adj_write are using task_lock, check for
task->mm and fail if it is NULL. This is not needed because the
oom_score_adj is per signal struct so we do not need mm at all. The code
has been introduced by 3d5992d2ac7d ("oom: add per-mm oom disable count")
but we do not do per-mm oom disable since c9f01245b6a7 ("oom: remove
oom_disable_count").
The task->mm check is even not correct because the current thread might
have exited but the thread group might be still alive - e.g. thread group
leader would lead that echo $VAL > /proc/pid/oom_score_adj would always
fail with EINVAL while /proc/pid/task/$other_tid/oom_score_adj would
succeed. This is unexpected at best.
Remove the lock along with the check to fix the unexpected behavior and
also because there is not real need for the lock in the first place.

And for newer kernels, the system was rendered unusable afterwards.
The problem was mprotect->pte_modify() clearing PTE_SPECIAL (which is
set to identify the special zero page wired to the pte).
When pte was finally unmapped, special casing for zero page was not
done, and instead it was treated as a "normal" page, tripping on the

This changes the vfs dentry hashing to mix in the parent pointer at the
_beginning_ of the hash, rather than at the end.
That actually improves both the hash and the code generation, because we
can move more of the computation to the "static" part of the dcache
setup, and do less at lookup runtime.
It turns out that a lot of other hash users also really wanted to mix in
a base pointer as a 'salt' for the hash, and so the slightly extended
interface ends up working well for other cases too.
Users that want a string hash that is purely about the string pass in a
'salt' pointer of NULL.

A LAYOUTCOMMIT then subsequent GETATTR may both return the same attributes,
and in that case NFS_INO_INVALID_ATTR is never set on the second pass
through nfs_update_inode(). The existing check to skip the clearing of
NFS_INO_INVALID_ATTR if a LAYOUTCOMMIT is outstanding does not help in this
case (see commit 10b7e9ad4488: "pNFS: Don't mark the inode as revalidated
if a LAYOUTCOMMIT is outstanding"). We know that if a LAYOUTCOMMIT is
outstanding then attributes will need upating, so always set
NFS_INO_INVALID_ATTR.

Some of our "for_each_xyz()" macro constructs make gcc unhappy about
lack of braces around if-statements inside or outside the loop, because
the loop construct itself has a "if-then-else" statement inside of it.
The resulting warnings look something like this:
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_debugfs.c: In function ‘i915_dump_lrc’:
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_debugfs.c:2103:6: warning: suggest explicit braces to avoid ambiguous ‘else’ [-Wparentheses]
if (ctx != dev_priv->kernel_context)
^
even if the code itself is fine.
Since the warning is fairly easy to avoid by adding a braces around the
if-statement near the for_each_xyz() construct, do so, rather than
disabling the otherwise potentially useful warning.
(The if-then-else statements used in the "for_each_xyz()" constructs are
designed to be inherently safe even with no braces, but in this case
it's quite understandable that gcc isn't really able to tell that).
This finally leaves the standard "allmodconfig" build with just a
handful of remaining warnings, so new and valid warnings hopefully will
stand out.

Newer versions of gcc warn about the use of __builtin_return_address()
with a non-zero argument when "-Wall" is specified:
kernel/trace/trace_irqsoff.c: In function ‘stop_critical_timings’:
kernel/trace/trace_irqsoff.c:433:86: warning: calling ‘__builtin_return_address’ with a nonzero argument is unsafe [-Wframe-address]
stop_critical_timing(CALLER_ADDR0, CALLER_ADDR1);
[ .. repeats a few times for other similar cases .. ]
It is true that a non-zero argument is somewhat dangerous, and we do not
actually have very many uses of that in the kernel - but the ftrace code
does use it, and as Stephen Rostedt says:
"We are well aware of the danger of using __builtin_return_address() of
> 0. In fact that's part of the reason for having the "thunk" code in
x86 (See arch/x86/entry/thunk_{64,32}.S). [..] it adds extra frames
when tracking irqs off sections, to prevent __builtin_return_address()
from accessing bad areas. In fact the thunk_32.S states: 'Trampoline to
trace irqs off. (otherwise CALLER_ADDR1 might crash)'."
For now, __builtin_return_address() with a non-zero argument is the best
we can do, and the warning is not helpful and can end up making people
miss other warnings for real problems.
So disable the frame-address warning on compilers that need it.

On pre-Niagara systems, we fetch the fault address on data TLB
exceptions from the TLB_TAG_ACCESS register. But this register also
contains the context ID assosciated with the fault in the low 13 bits
of the register value.
This propagates into current_thread_info()->fault_address and can
cause trouble later on.
So clear the low 13-bits out of the TLB_TAG_ACCESS value in the cases
where it matters.

Pull spi updates from Mark Brown:
"Quite a lot of cleanup and maintainence work going on this release in
various drivers, and also a fix for a nasty locking issue in the core:
- A fix for locking issues when external drivers explicitly locked
the bus with spi_bus_lock() - we were using the same lock to both
control access to the physical bus in multi-threaded I/O operations
and exclude multiple callers.
Confusion between these two caused us to have scenarios where we
were dropping locks. These are fixed by splitting into two
separate locks like should have been done originally, making
everything much clearer and correct.
- Support for DMA in spi_flash_read().
- Support for instantiating spidev on ACPI systems, including some
test devices used in Windows validation.
- Use of the core DMA mapping functionality in the McSPI driver.
- Start of support for ThunderX SPI controllers, involving a very big
set of changes to the Cavium driver.

Several build configurations had already disabled this warning because
it generates a lot of false positives. But some had not, and it was
still enabled for "allmodconfig" builds, for example.
Looking at the warnings produced, every single one I looked at was a
false positive, and the warnings are frequent enough (and big enough)
that they can easily hide real problems that you don't notice in the
noise generated by -Wmaybe-uninitialized.
The warning is good in theory, but this is a classic case of a warning
that causes more problems than the warning can solve.
If gcc gets better at avoiding false positives, we may be able to
re-enable this warning. But as is, we're better off without it, and I
want to be able to see the *real* warnings.

Pull xfs updates from Dave Chinner:
"The major addition is the new iomap based block mapping
infrastructure. We've been kicking this about locally for years, but
there are other filesystems want to use it too (e.g. gfs2). Now it
is fully working, reviewed and ready for merge and be used by other
filesystems.
There are a lot of other fixes and cleanups in the tree, but those are
XFS internal things and none are of the scale or visibility of the
iomap changes. See below for details.
I am likely to send another pull request next week - we're just about
ready to merge some new functionality (on disk block->owner reverse
mapping infrastructure), but that's a huge chunk of code (74 files
changed, 7283 insertions(+), 1114 deletions(-)) so I'm keeping that
separate to all the "normal" pull request changes so they don't get
lost in the noise.
Summary of changes in this update:
- generic iomap based IO path infrastructure
- generic iomap based fiemap implementation
- xfs iomap based Io path implementation
- buffer error handling fixes
- tracking of in flight buffer IO for unmount serialisation
- direct IO and DAX io path separation and simplification
- shortform directory format definition changes for wider platform
compatibility

- cleanups in preparation for rmap merge
- error injection cleanups and fixes
- log item format buffer memory allocation restructuring to prevent
rare OOM reclaim deadlocks
- sparse inode chunks are now fully supported"

Parameter trydefaults=1 causes the ipmi_init to initialize ipmi through
the legacy port io space that was designated for ipmi. Architectures
that do not map legacy port io can panic when trydefaults=1.
Rather than implement build-time conditional exceptions for each
architecture that does not map legacy port io, we have removed legacy
port io from the driver.
Parameter 'trydefaults' has been removed. Attempts to use it hereafter
will evoke the "Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter" message.
The patch was built against a number of architectures and tested for
regressions and functionality on x86_64 and ARM64.
