mm, memcg: introduce memory.events.local
The memory controller in cgroup v2 exposes memory.events file for each memcg which shows the number of times events like low, high, max, oom and oom_kill have happened for the whole tree rooted at that memcg. Users can also poll or register notification to monitor the changes in that file. Any event at any level of the tree rooted at memcg will notify all the listeners along the path till root_mem_cgroup. There are existing users which depend on this behavior. However there are users which are only interested in the events happening at a specific level of the memcg tree and not in the events in the underlying tree rooted at that memcg. One such use-case is a centralized resource monitor which can dynamically adjust the limits of the jobs running on a system. The jobs can create their sub-hierarchy for their own sub-tasks. The centralized monitor is only interested in the events at the top level memcgs of the jobs as it can then act and adjust the limits of the jobs. Using the current memory.events for such centralized monitor is very inconvenient. The monitor will keep receiving events which it is not interested and to find if the received event is interesting, it has to read memory.event files of the next level and compare it with the top level one. So, let's introduce memory.events.local to the memcg which shows and notify for the events at the memcg level. Now, does memory.stat and memory.pressure need their local versions. IMHO no due to the no internal process contraint of the cgroup v2. The memory.stat file of the top level memcg of a job shows the stats and vmevents of the whole tree. The local stats or vmevents of the top level memcg will only change if there is a process running in that memcg but v2 does not allow that. Similarly for memory.pressure there will not be any process in the internal nodes and thus no chance of local pressure.

mm, debug_pagealloc: use a page type instead of page_ext flag
When debug_pagealloc is enabled, we currently allocate the page_ext array to mark guard pages with the PAGE_EXT_DEBUG_GUARD flag. Now that we have the page_type field in struct page, we can use that instead, as guard pages are neither PageSlab nor mapped to userspace. This reduces memory overhead when debug_pagealloc is enabled and there are no other features requiring the page_ext array.

It's been a relatively busy cycle for docs:
- A fair pile of RST conversions, many from Mauro. These create more
than the usual number of simple but annoying merge conflicts with other
trees, unfortunately. He has a lot more of these waiting on the wings
that, I think, will go to you directly later on.
- A new document on how to use merges and rebases in kernel repos, and one
on Spectre vulnerabilities.
- Various improvements to the build system, including automatic markup of
function() references because some people, for reasons I will never
understand, were of the opinion that :c:func:``function()`` is
unattractive and not fun to type.
- We now recommend using sphinx 1.7, but still support back to 1.4.
- Lots of smaller improvements, warning fixes, typo fixes, etc.

x86/vsyscall: Add a new vsyscall=xonly mode
With vsyscall emulation on, a readable vsyscall page is still exposed that contains syscall instructions that validly implement the vsyscalls. This is required because certain dynamic binary instrumentation tools attempt to read the call targets of call instructions in the instrumented code. If the instrumented code uses vsyscalls, then the vsyscall page needs to contain readable code. Unfortunately, leaving readable memory at a deterministic address can be used to help various ASLR bypasses, so some hardening value can be gained by disallowing vsyscall reads. Given how rarely the vsyscall page needs to be readable, add a mechanism to make the vsyscall page be execute only.

mm, memcg: consider subtrees in memory.events
memory.stat and other files already consider subtrees in their output, and
we should too in order to not present an inconsistent interface.
The current situation is fairly confusing, because people interacting with
cgroups expect hierarchical behaviour in the vein of memory.stat,
cgroup.events, and other files. For example, this causes confusion when
debugging reclaim events under low, as currently these always read "0" at
non-leaf memcg nodes, which frequently causes people to misdiagnose breach
behaviour. The same confusion applies to other counters in this file when
debugging issues.
Aggregation is done at write time instead of at read-time since these
counters aren't hot (unlike memory.stat which is per-page, so it does it
at read time), and it makes sense to bundle this with the file
notifications.
After this patch, events are propagated up the hierarchy:
[root@ktst ~]# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/system.slice/memory.events
low 0
high 0
max 0
oom 0
oom_kill 0
[root@ktst ~]# systemd-run -p MemoryMax=1 true
Running as unit: run-r251162a189fb4562b9dabfdc9b0422f5.service
[root@ktst ~]# cat /sys/fs/cgroup/system.slice/memory.events
low 0
high 0
max 7
oom 1
oom_kill 1
As this is a change in behaviour, this can be reverted to the old
behaviour by mounting with the `memory_localevents' flag set. However, we
use the new behaviour by default as there's a lack of evidence that there
are any current users of memory.events that would find this change
undesirable.
akpm: this is a behaviour change, so Cc:stable. THis is so that
forthcoming distros which use cgroup v2 are more likely to pick up the
revised behaviour.

rcu: Enable elimination of Tree-RCU softirq processing
Some workloads need to change kthread priority for RCU core processing without affecting other softirq work. This commit therefore introduces the rcutree.use_softirq kernel boot parameter, which moves the RCU core work from softirq to a per-CPU SCHED_OTHER kthread named rcuc. Use of SCHED_OTHER approach avoids the scalability problems that appeared with the earlier attempt to move RCU core processing to from softirq to kthreads.

panic: add an option to replay all the printk message in buffer
Currently on panic, kernel will lower the loglevel and print out pending printk msg only with console_flush_on_panic(). Add an option for users to configure the "panic_print" to replay all dmesg in buffer, some of which they may have never seen due to the loglevel setting, which will help panic debugging .

ipc: allow boot time extension of IPCMNI from 32k to 16M
The maximum number of unique System V IPC identifiers was limited to 32k. That limit should be big enough for most use cases. However, there are some users out there requesting for more, especially those that are migrating from Solaris which uses 24 bits for unique identifiers. To satisfy the need of those users, a new boot time kernel option "ipcmni_extend" is added to extend the IPCMNI value to 16M. This is a 512X increase which should be big enough for users out there that need a large number of unique IPC identifier. The use of this new option will change the pattern of the IPC identifiers returned by functions like shmget(2). An application that depends on such pattern may not work properly. So it should only be used if the users really need more than 32k of unique IPC numbers. This new option does have the side effect of reducing the maximum number of unique sequence numbers from 64k down to 128. So it is a trade-off. The computation of a new IPC id is not done in the performance critical path. So a little bit of additional overhead shouldn't have any real performance impact.

mm: shuffle initial free memory to improve memory-side-cache utilization
Patch series "mm: Randomize free memory", v10.
This patch (of 3):
Randomization of the page allocator improves the average utilization of
a direct-mapped memory-side-cache. Memory side caching is a platform
capability that Linux has been previously exposed to in HPC
(high-performance computing) environments on specialty platforms. In
that instance it was a smaller pool of high-bandwidth-memory relative to
higher-capacity / lower-bandwidth DRAM. Now, this capability is going
to be found on general purpose server platforms where DRAM is a cache in
front of higher latency persistent memory [1].
Robert offered an explanation of the state of the art of Linux
interactions with memory-side-caches [2], and I copy it here:
It's been a problem in the HPC space:
http://www.nersc.gov/research-and-development/knl-cache-mode-performance-coe/
A kernel module called zonesort is available to try to help:
https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/xeon-phi-software
and this abandoned patch series proposed that for the kernel:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170823100205.17311-1-lukasz.daniluk@intel.com
Dan's patch series doesn't attempt to ensure buffers won't conflict, but
also reduces the chance that the buffers will. This will make performance
more consistent, albeit slower than "optimal" (which is near impossible
to attain in a general-purpose kernel). That's better than forcing
users to deploy remedies like:
"To eliminate this gradual degradation, we have added a Stream
measurement to the Node Health Check that follows each job;
nodes are rebooted whenever their measured memory bandwidth
falls below 300 GB/s."
A replacement for zonesort was merged upstream in commit

Pull x86 MDS mitigations from Thomas Gleixner:
"Microarchitectural Data Sampling (MDS) is a hardware vulnerability
which allows unprivileged speculative access to data which is
available in various CPU internal buffers. This new set of misfeatures
has the following CVEs assigned:
CVE-2018-12126 MSBDS Microarchitectural Store Buffer Data Sampling
CVE-2018-12130 MFBDS Microarchitectural Fill Buffer Data Sampling
CVE-2018-12127 MLPDS Microarchitectural Load Port Data Sampling
CVE-2019-11091 MDSUM Microarchitectural Data Sampling Uncacheable Memory
MDS attacks target microarchitectural buffers which speculatively
forward data under certain conditions. Disclosure gadgets can expose
this data via cache side channels.
Contrary to other speculation based vulnerabilities the MDS
vulnerability does not allow the attacker to control the memory target
address. As a consequence the attacks are purely sampling based, but
as demonstrated with the TLBleed attack samples can be postprocessed
successfully.
The mitigation is to flush the microarchitectural buffers on return to
user space and before entering a VM. It's bolted on the VERW
instruction and requires a microcode update. As some of the attacks
exploit data structures shared between hyperthreads, full protection
requires to disable hyperthreading. The kernel does not do that by
default to avoid breaking unattended updates.
The mitigation set comes with documentation for administrators and a
deeper technical view"

powerpc updates for 5.2
Highlights:
- Support for Kernel Userspace Access/Execution Prevention (like
SMAP/SMEP/PAN/PXN) on some 64-bit and 32-bit CPUs. This prevents the kernel
from accidentally accessing userspace outside copy_to/from_user(), or
ever executing userspace.
- KASAN support on 32-bit.
- Rework of where we map the kernel, vmalloc, etc. on 64-bit hash to use the
same address ranges we use with the Radix MMU.
- A rewrite into C of large parts of our idle handling code for 64-bit Book3S
(ie. power8 & power9).
- A fast path entry for syscalls on 32-bit CPUs, for a 12-17% speedup in the
null_syscall benchmark.
- On 64-bit bare metal we have support for recovering from errors with the time
base (our clocksource), however if that fails currently we hang in __delay()
and never crash. We now have support for detecting that case and short
circuiting __delay() so we at least panic() and reboot.
- Add support for optionally enabling the DAWR on Power9, which had to be
disabled by default due to a hardware erratum. This has the effect of
enabling hardware breakpoints for GDB, the downside is a badly behaved
program could crash the machine by pointing the DAWR at cache inhibited
memory. This is opt-in obviously.
- xmon, our crash handler, gets support for a read only mode where operations
that could change memory or otherwise disturb the system are disabled.
Plus many clean-ups, reworks and minor fixes etc.

MDS is a family of side channel attacks on internal buffers in Intel CPUs. MDSUM is a special case of MSBDS, MFBDS and MLPDS. An uncacheable load from memory that takes a fault or assist can leave data in a microarchitectural structure that may later be observed using one of the same methods used by MSBDS, MFBDS or MLPDS. There are no new code changes expected for MDSUM. The existing mitigation for MDS applies to MDSUM as well.
