    workqueue: add worker function to workqueue_execute_end tracepoint

    It's surprising that workqueue_execute_end includes only the work when
    its counterpart workqueue_execute_start has both the work and the worker
    function.

    You can't set a tracing filter or trigger based on the function, and
    postprocessing scripts interested in specific functions are harder to
    write since they have to remember the work from _start and match it up
    with the same field in _end.

    Add the function name, taking care to use the copy stashed in the
    worker since the work is no longer safe to touch.

    KVM: x86: Use gpa_t for cr2/gpa to fix TDP support on 32-bit KVM

    Convert a plethora of parameters and variables in the MMU and page fault
    flows from type gva_t to gpa_t to properly handle TDP on 32-bit KVM.

    Thanks to PSE and PAE paging, 32-bit kernels can access 64-bit physical
    addresses.  When TDP is enabled, the fault address is a guest physical
    address and thus can be a 64-bit value, even when both KVM and its guest
    are using 32-bit virtual addressing, e.g. VMX's VMCS.GUEST_PHYSICAL is a
    64-bit field, not a natural width field.

    Using a gva_t for the fault address means KVM will incorrectly drop the
    upper 32-bits of the GPA.  Ditto for gva_to_gpa() when it is used to
    translate L2 GPAs to L1 GPAs.

    Opportunistically rename variables and parameters to better reflect the
    dual address modes, e.g. use "cr2_or_gpa" for fault addresses and plain
    "addr" instead of "vaddr" when the address may be either a GVA or an L2
    GPA.  Similarly, use "gpa" in the nonpaging_page_fault() flows to avoid
    a confusing "gpa_t gva" declaration; this also sets the stage for a
    future patch to combing nonpaging_page_fault() and tdp_page_fault() with
    minimal churn.

    Sprinkle in a few comments to document flows where an address is known
    to be a GVA and thus can be safely truncated to a 32-bit value.  Add
    WARNs in kvm_handle_page_fault() and FNAME(gva_to_gpa_nested)() to help
    document such cases and detect bugs.

    So far we have reserved only relatively high fixed amount of revoke
    credits for each transaction. We over-reserved by large amount for most
    cases but when freeing large directories or files with data journalling,
    the fixed amount is not enough. In fact the worst case estimate is
    inconveniently large (maximum extent size) for freeing of one extent.

    We fix this by doing proper estimate of the amount of blocks that need
    to be revoked when removing blocks from the inode due to truncate or
    hole punching and otherwise reserve just a small amount of revoke

Fix: lttng-tracepoint module notifier should return NOTIFY_OK

Module notifiers should return NOTIFY_OK on success rather than the
value 0. The return value 0 does not seem to have any ill side-effects
in the notifier chain caller, but it is preferable to respect the API
requirements in case this changes in the future.

Notifiers can encapsulate a negative errno value with
notifier_from_errno(), but this is not needed by the LTTng tracepoint
notifier.

The approach taken in this notifier is to just print a console warning
on error, because tracing failure should not prevent loading a module.
So we definitely do not want to stop notifier iteration. Returning
an error without stopping iteration is not really that useful, because
only the return value of the last callback is returned to notifier chain

destruction is not useful: there are no readers left anyway at
that stage.

The side-effect perceived of setting this quiescent state on
destroy is that the metadata stream ends up with an empty last
packet (due to flush_empty performed when setting the quiescent state)
which is never consumed. This shows up in the lttng-modules error
reporting.

    entropy pool has been fully initialized.  Fix this so that we don't
    allow this until the blocking pool has received 128 bits.

    We do this by repurposing the initialized flag in the entropy pool

    whether it is safe to pull from the blocking pool.

    putback_inactive_pages() and move_active_pages_to_lru() are almost

    This patch (of 4):

    shrink_inactive_list().  This makes putback_inactive_pages() looking more
    similar to move_active_pages_to_lru().

    Since a page may change its LRU type from anon to file cache inside
    shrink_page_list() (see ClearPageSwapBacked()), we have to account pages
    for the both types.  So, nr_activate becomes an array.

    timer/trace: Improve timer tracing

    Timers are added to the timer wheel off by one. This is required in
    case a timer is queued directly before incrementing jiffies to prevent
    early timer expiry.

    When reading a timer trace and relying only on the expiry time of the timer
    in the timer_start trace point and on the now in the timer_expiry_entry
    trace point, it seems that the timer fires late. With the current
    timer_expiry_entry trace point information only now=jiffies is printed but
    not the value of base->clk. This makes it impossible to draw a conclusion
    to the index of base->clk and makes it impossible to examine timer problems
    without additional trace points.

    Therefore add the base->clk value to the timer_expire_entry trace
    point, to be able to calculate the index the timer base is located at
    during collecting expired timers.

bitfield.h uses the left shift operator with a left operand which
may be negative. The C99 standard states that shifting a negative
value is undefined.

When building with -Wshift-negative-value, we get this gcc warning:

This boils down to the fact that the expression ~((uint8_t)0) has type
"signed int", which is used as an operand of the left shift.  This is due
to the integer promotion rules of C99 (6.3.3.1):

    If an int can represent all values of the original type, the value is
    converted to an int; otherwise, it is converted to an unsigned int.
    These are called the integer promotions. All other types are unchanged
    by the integer promotions.

We also need to cast the result explicitly into the left hand
side type to deal with:

warning: large integer implicitly truncated to unsigned type [-Woverflow]

The C99 standard states that a right shift has implementation-defined
behavior when shifting a signed negative value. Add a preprocessor check
that the compiler provides the expected behavior, else provide an
alternative implementation which guarantees the intended behavior.

A preprocessor check is also added to ensure that the compiler
representation for signed values is two's complement, which is expected
by this header.

Document that this header strictly respects the C99 standard, with
the exception of its use of __typeof__.

Fix: timestamp_end field should include all events within sub-buffer

Fix for timestamp_end not including all events within sub-buffer. This
happens if a thread is preempted/interrupted for a long time between
reserve and commit (e.g. in the middle of a packet), which causes the
timestamp used for timestamp_end field of the packet header to be lower
than the timestamp of the last events in the buffer (those following the
event that was preempted/interrupted between reserve and commit).

The fix involves sampling the timestamp when doing the last space
reservation in a sub-buffer (which necessarily happens before doing the
delivery after its last commit). Save this timestamp temporarily in a
per-sub-buffer control area (we have exclusive access to that area until
we increment the commit counter).

Then, that timestamp value will be read when delivering the sub-buffer,
whichever event or switch happens to be the last to increment the commit
counter to perform delivery. The timestamp value can be read without
worrying about concurrent access, because at that point sub-buffer
delivery has exclusive access to the sub-buffer.

This ensures the timestamp_end value is always larger or equal to the
timestamp of the last event, always below or equal the timestamp_begin
of the following packet, and always below or equal the timestamp of the

Fix: don't access packet header for stream_id and stream_instance_id getters

The stream ID and stream instance ID are invariant for a stream, so
there is no point reading them from the packet header currently owned by
the consumer (between get/put subbuf).

Actually, the consumer try to access the stream_id from the live timer
when sending a live beacon without getting the reader subbuffer first.
Doing so is racy against producers. In typical live scenarios
(non-overwrite channels), the producers will always write the same
stream id and stream instance id values at the same header offsets,
which will "work", except for the initial state of an empty buffer:
the value "0" will be returned (erroneously).

For the less frequently used scenario of a live session with "overwrite"
channels, this will trigger WARN_ON safety nets in libringbuffer. This
safety net triggers a kernel OOPS report and disables tracing for that
channel.

In the case where a ring buffer does not have any data ready, it makes
no sense to try to get a subbuffer for reading anyway, so the approach
was broken.

So return the stream id and stream instance id from the internal
data structures rather than reading it from the ring buffer.

    mm: create the new vm_fault_t type

    Page fault handlers are supposed to return VM_FAULT codes, but some
    drivers/file systems mistakenly return error numbers.  Now that all
    drivers/file systems have been converted to use the vm_fault_t return
    type, change the type definition to no longer be compatible with 'int'.
    By making it an unsigned int, the function prototype becomes
    incompatible with a function which returns int.  Sparse will detect any
    attempts to return a value which is not a VM_FAULT code.

    VM_FAULT_SET_HINDEX and VM_FAULT_GET_HINDEX values are changed to avoid
    conflict with other VM_FAULT codes.

    Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function

    Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
    of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
    old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

    It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
    bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
    user access.  But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
    days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

    A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
    checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
    move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model.  And it's best done at
    the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
    just get this done once and for all.

    This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
    the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

    There were a couple of notable cases:

     - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

     - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
       values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
       really used it)

     - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

    but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

    I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
    access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
    something.  Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

    ext4: adjust reserved cluster count when removing extents

    Modify ext4_ext_remove_space() and the code it calls to correct the
    reserved cluster count for pending reservations (delayed allocated
    clusters shared with allocated blocks) when a block range is removed
    from the extent tree.  Pending reservations may be found for the clusters
    at the ends of written or unwritten extents when a block range is removed.
    If a physical cluster at the end of an extent is freed, it's necessary
    to increment the reserved cluster count to maintain correct accounting
    if the corresponding logical cluster is shared with at least one
    delayed and unwritten extent as found in the extents status tree.

    Add a new function, ext4_rereserve_cluster(), to reapply a reservation
    on a delayed allocated cluster sharing blocks with a freed allocated
    cluster.  To avoid ENOSPC on reservation, a flag is applied to
    ext4_free_blocks() to briefly defer updating the freeclusters counter
    when an allocated cluster is freed.  This prevents another thread
    from allocating the freed block before the reservation can be reapplied.

    Redefine the partial cluster object as a struct to carry more state
    information and to clarify the code using it.

    Adjust the conditional code structure in ext4_ext_remove_space to
    reduce the indentation level in the main body of the code to improve
    readability.

    The obvious thing of only adding the padding when userspace is
    including siginfo.h won't work as there are sigframe definitions in
    the kernel that embed struct siginfo.

    So split siginfo in two; kernel_siginfo and siginfo.  Keeping the
    traditional name for the userspace definition.  While the version that
    is used internally to the kernel and ultimately will not be padded to
    128 bytes is called kernel_siginfo.

    The definition of struct kernel_siginfo I have put in include/signal_types.h

    A set of buildtime checks has been added to verify the two structures have
    the same field offsets.

    To make it easy to verify the change kernel_siginfo retains the same

Issue
=====
Three kernel functions used in the following commit are unavailable on
some supported kernels:

commit 1f0ab1eb0409d23de5f67cc588c3ea4cee4d10e0
Prevent allocation of buffers if exceeding available memory

* si_mem_available() was added in kernel 4.6 with commit d02bd27.
* {set, clear}_current_oom_origin() were added in kernel 3.8 with commit:
  e1e12d2f

Solution
========
Add wrappers around these functions such that older kernels will build
with these functions defined as NOP or trivial return value.

wrapper_check_enough_free_pages() uses the si_mem_available() kernel
function to compute if the number pages requested passed as parameter is
smaller than the number of pages available on the machine. If the
si_mem_available() kernel function is unavailable, we always return
true.

wrapper_set_current_oom_origin() function wraps the
set_current_oom_origin() kernel function when it is available.
If set_current_oom_origin() is unavailable the wrapper is empty.

wrapper_clear_current_oom_origin() function wraps the
clear_current_oom_origin() kernel function when it is available.

Prevent allocation of buffers if exceeding available memory

Issue
=====
The running system can be rendered unusable by creating a channel
buffers larger than the available memory of the system, resulting in
random processes being killed by the OOM-killer.

These simple commands trigger the crash on my 15G of RAM laptop:
  lttng create
  lttng enable-channel -k --subbuf-size=16G --num-subbuf=1 chan0

Note that the subbuf-size * num-subbuf is larger than the physical
memory.

Solution
========
Get an estimate of the number of available pages and return ENOMEM if
there are not enough pages to cover the needs of the caller. Also, mark
the calling user thread as the first target for the OOM killer in case
the estimate of available pages was wrong.

This greatly reduces the attack surface of this issue as well as reducing
its potential impact.

This approach is inspired by the one taken by the Linux kernel
trace ring buffer[1].

Drawback
========
This approach is imperfect because it's based on an estimate.

The problem was reported to the RT community. [1] [2]

A solution is to access the field directly instead of using the
utility wrapper.

It is important to note that the field is now available for other
configurations than CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_FULL. For now, we choose to
expose the migratable context only for configurations where
CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_FULL is set.

Based on the configuration dependency of the kernels, selecting
CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_FULL ensures the presence of the migrate_disable
field.

    BUILD_BUG_ON(): fix it and a couple of bogus uses of it

    gcc permitting variable length arrays makes the current construct used for

    it so that a bit field gets used here.  Consequently, those uses where the
    condition isn't really constant now also need fixing.

    Note that in the gfp.h, kmemcheck.h, and virtio_config.h cases
    MAYBE_BUILD_BUG_ON() really just serves documentation purposes - even if
    the expression is compile time constant (__builtin_constant_p() yields
    true), the array is still deemed of variable length by gcc, and hence the
    whole expression doesn't have the intended effect.

    BUILD_BUG_ON: make it handle more cases

    BUILD_BUG_ON used to use the optimizer to do code elimination or fail

    nicer compile time error), then (in
    8c87df457cb58fe75b9b893007917cf8095660a0) to a bitfield.

    This forced us to change some non-constant cases to MAYBE_BUILD_BUG_ON();
    as Jan points out in that commit, it didn't work as intended anyway.

    bitfields: needs a literal constant at parse time, and can't be put under
            "if (__builtin_constant_p(x))" for example.
    negative array: can handle anything, but if the compiler can't tell it's
            a constant, silently has no effect.
    link time: breaks link if the compiler can't determine the value, but the
            linker output is not usually as informative as a compiler error.

    If we use the negative-array-size method *and* the link time trick,
    we get the ability to use BUILD_BUG_ON() under __builtin_constant_p()
    branches, and maximal ability for the compiler to detect errors at

    allocations, such as thp, to still trigger background compaction even
    when the zone has an abundance of free memory.
