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

<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.

<title>kmemcg: account certain kmem allocations to memcg</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5d097056c9a017a3b720849efb5432f37acabbac</id>
<content type='text'>
Mark those kmem allocations that are known to be easily triggered from
userspace as __GFP_ACCOUNT/SLAB_ACCOUNT, which makes them accounted to
memcg.  For the list, see below:

 - threadinfo
 - task_struct
 - task_delay_info
 - pid
 - cred
 - mm_struct
 - vm_area_struct and vm_region (nommu)
 - anon_vma and anon_vma_chain
 - signal_struct
 - sighand_struct
 - fs_struct
 - files_struct
 - fdtable and fdtable-&gt;full_fds_bits
 - dentry and external_name
 - inode for all filesystems. This is the most tedious part, because
   most filesystems overwrite the alloc_inode method.

The list is far from complete, so feel free to add more objects.
Nevertheless, it should be close to "account everything" approach and
keep most workloads within bounds.  Malevolent users will be able to
breach the limit, but this was possible even with the former "account
everything" approach (simply because it did not account everything in
fact).

<title>logfs: fix logfs build errors and dependencies</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2886357b24662fcf7dc138c9d5e3166e99a55750</id>
<content type='text'>
Fix build errors that happen when CONFIG_LOGFS=y and CONFIG_MTD=m:

  fs/built-in.o: In function `logfs_mount':
  super.c:(.text+0x92a6f): undefined reference to `logfs_get_sb_mtd'
  fs/built-in.o: In function `logfs_get_sb_bdev':
  (.text+0x93530): undefined reference to `logfs_get_sb_mtd'

This patch avoids the error by changing the dependencies of logfs in a
way that we can no longer configure logfs as built-in when the MTD core
is a loadable module, while leaving the dependency to require at least
one of MTD or BLOCK to be enabled.

Pull misc vfs updates from Al Viro:
 "All kinds of stuff.  That probably should've been 5 or 6 separate
  branches, but by the time I'd realized how large and mixed that bag
  had become it had been too close to -final to play with rebasing.

  Some fs/namei.c cleanups there, memdup_user_nul() introduction and
  switching open-coded instances, burying long-dead code, whack-a-mole
  of various kinds, several new helpers for -&gt;llseek(), assorted
  cleanups and fixes from various people, etc.

  One piece probably deserves special mention - Neil's
  lookup_one_len_unlocked().  Similar to lookup_one_len(), but gets
  called without -&gt;i_mutex and tries to avoid ever taking it.  That, of
  course, means that it's not useful for any directory modifications,
  but things like getting inode attributes in nfds readdirplus are fine
  with that.  I really should've asked for moratorium on lookup-related
  changes this cycle, but since I hadn't done that early enough...  I
  *am* asking for that for the coming cycle, though - I'm going to try
  and get conversion of i_mutex to rwsem with -&gt;lookup() done under lock
  taken shared.

  There will be a patch closer to the end of the window, along the lines
  of the one Linus had posted last May - mechanical conversion of
  -&gt;i_mutex accesses to inode_lock()/inode_unlock()/inode_trylock()/
  inode_is_locked()/inode_lock_nested().  To quote Linus back then:

    -----
    |    This is an automated patch using
    |
    |        sed 's/mutex_lock(&amp;\(.*\)-&gt;i_mutex)/inode_lock(\1)/'
    |        sed 's/mutex_unlock(&amp;\(.*\)-&gt;i_mutex)/inode_unlock(\1)/'
    |        sed 's/mutex_lock_nested(&amp;\(.*\)-&gt;i_mutex,[     ]*I_MUTEX_\([A-Z0-9_]*\))/inode_lock_nested(\1, I_MUTEX_\2)/'
    |        sed 's/mutex_is_locked(&amp;\(.*\)-&gt;i_mutex)/inode_is_locked(\1)/'
    |        sed 's/mutex_trylock(&amp;\(.*\)-&gt;i_mutex)/inode_trylock(\1)/'
    |
    |    with a very few manual fixups
    -----

  I'm going to send that once the -&gt;i_mutex-affecting stuff in -next
  gets mostly merged (or when Linus says he's about to stop taking
  merges)"

kmap() in page_follow_link_light() needed to go - allowing to hold
an arbitrary number of kmaps for long is a great way to deadlocking
the system.

new helper (inode_nohighmem(inode)) needs to be used for pagecache
symlinks inodes; done for all in-tree cases.  page_follow_link_light()
instrumented to yell about anything missed.

This allows to write

  drm-$(CONFIG_AGP) += drm_agpsupport.o

without having to handle CONFIG_AGP=y vs. CONFIG_AGP=m. Only support
this syntax for modules, since built-in code depending on something
modular cannot work and init/Makefile actually relies on the current
semantics. There are a few drivers which adapted to the current
semantics out of necessity; these are fixed to also work when the
respective subsystem is modular.
