At present, dma_buf_export() takes a series of parameters, which
makes it difficult to add any new parameters for exporters, if required.
Make it simpler by moving all these parameters into a struct, and pass
the struct * as parameter to dma_buf_export().
While at it, unite dma_buf_export_named() with dma_buf_export(), and
change all callers accordingly.

The android_fence_release() function checks for active sync points
by calling list_empty() on the list head embedded on the sync
point. However, it is only valid to use list_empty() on nodes that
have been initialized with INIT_LIST_HEAD() or list_del_init().
Because the list entry has likely been removed from the active list
by sync_timeline_signal(), there is a good chance that this
WARN_ON_ONCE() will be hit due to dangling pointers pointing at
freed memory (even though the sync drivers did nothing wrong)
and memory corruption will ensue as the list entry is removed for
a second time, corrupting the active list.
This problem can be reproduced quite easily with CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST=y
and fences with more than one sync point.

C99 says that a precision which is simply '.' with no following digits
or * should be interpreted as 0, which means that these format strings
actually mean 'print 16 spaces'. However, the kernel's printf
implementation treats this case as if the precision was omitted. Don't
rely on that quirk.

This patchset addresses a race which was described in the changelog for
5695be142e ("OOM, PM: OOM killed task shouldn't escape PM suspend"):
: PM freezer relies on having all tasks frozen by the time devices are
: getting frozen so that no task will touch them while they are getting
: frozen. But OOM killer is allowed to kill an already frozen task in order
: to handle OOM situtation. In order to protect from late wake ups OOM
: killer is disabled after all tasks are frozen. This, however, still keeps
: a window open when a killed task didn't manage to die by the time
: freeze_processes finishes.
The original patch hasn't closed the race window completely because that
would require a more complex solution as it can be seen by this patchset.
The primary motivation was to close the race condition between OOM killer
and PM freezer _completely_. As Tejun pointed out, even though the race
condition is unlikely the harder it would be to debug weird bugs deep in
the PM freezer when the debugging options are reduced considerably. I can
only speculate what might happen when a task is still runnable
unexpectedly.
On a plus side and as a side effect the oom enable/disable has a better
(full barrier) semantic without polluting hot paths.
I have tested the series in KVM with 100M RAM:
- many small tasks (20M anon mmap) which are triggering OOM continually
- s2ram which resumes automatically is triggered in a loop
echo processors > /sys/power/pm_test
while true
do
echo mem > /sys/power/state
sleep 1s
done
- simple module which allocates and frees 20M in 8K chunks. If it sees
freezing(current) then it tries another round of allocation before calling
try_to_freeze
- debugging messages of PM stages and OOM killer enable/disable/fail added
and unmark_oom_victim is delayed by 1s after it clears TIF_MEMDIE and before
it wakes up waiters.
- rebased on top of the current mmotm which means some necessary updates
in mm/oom_kill.c. mark_tsk_oom_victim is now called under task_lock but
I think this should be OK because __thaw_task shouldn't interfere with any
locking down wake_up_process. Oleg?
As expected there are no OOM killed tasks after oom is disabled and
allocations requested by the kernel thread are failing after all the tasks
are frozen and OOM disabled. I wasn't able to catch a race where
oom_killer_disable would really have to wait but I kinda expected the race
is really unlikely.

The first 2 patches are simple cleanups for OOM. They should go in
regardless the rest IMO.
Patches 3 and 4 are trivial printk -> pr_info conversion and they should
go in ditto.
The main patch is the last one and I would appreciate acks from Tejun and
Rafael. I think the OOM part should be OK (except for __thaw_task vs.
task_lock where a look from Oleg would appreciated) but I am not so sure I
haven't screwed anything in the freezer code. I have found several
surprises there.
This patch (of 5):
This patch is just a preparatory and it doesn't introduce any functional
change.
Note:
I am utterly unhappy about lowmemory killer abusing TIF_MEMDIE just to
wait for the oom victim and to prevent from new killing. This is
just a side effect of the flag. The primary meaning is to give the oom
victim access to the memory reserves and that shouldn't be necessary
here.

With the relase of Lollipop, Android no longer
requires the logger driver.
There are three patches which the android dev's
still need before they drop logger on all their
devices:
[PATCH v4 1/5] pstores: use scnprintf
[PATCH v2 2/5] pstore: remove superfluous memory size check
[PATCH 3/5] pstore: handle zero-sized prz in series
[PATCH v4 4/5] pstore: add pmsg
[PATCH 5/5] pstore: selinux: add security in-core xattr support for pstore and debugfs
But these seem to have been acked and are hopefully
queued for upstream.
So this patch removes the logger driver from staging.

The functionality provided by the Android alarm-dev driver
should now be present in the timerfd interface (thanks to
Greg Hackmann and Todd Poynor).
As of Lollipop, AOSP can make use of the timerfd if
alarm-dev is not present (though a fixup for setting the
rtc time if rtc0 isn't the backing for _ALARM clockids has
been applied post-Lollipop).
Thus, we should be able to remove alarm-dev from staging.

Currently we initialize the heap free_lock and free list size in
ion_heap_init_deferred_free, which is only called when the
ION_HEAP_FLAG_DEFER_FREE heap flag is given. However, the lock and size
are used in the shrinker path as well as the deferred free path, and we
can register a shrinker *without* enabling deferred freeing. So, if a
heap provides a shrinker but *doesn't* set the DEFER_FREE flag we will
use these parameters uninitialized (resulting in a spinlock bug and
broken shrinker accounting).
Fix these problems by initializing the free list parameters directly in
ion_device_add_heap, which is always called no matter which heap
features are being used.

Here's the big staging tree pull request for 3.19-rc1.
We continued to delete more lines than were added, always a good thing,
but not at a huge rate this release, only about 70k lines removed
overall mostly from removing the horrid bcm driver.
Lots of normal staging driver cleanups and fixes all over the place,
well over a thousand of them, the shortlog shows all the horrid details.
The "contentious" thing here is the movement of the Android binder code
out of staging into the "real" part of the kernel. This is code that
has been stable for a few years now and is working as-is in the tens of
millions of devices with no issues. Yes, the code is horrid, and the
userspace api leaves a lot to be desired, but it's not going to change
due to legacy issues that we have no control over. Because so many
devices and companies rely on this, and the code is stable, might as
well promote it out of staging.
This was all discussed at the Linux Plumbers conference, and everyone
participating agreed that this was the best way forward.
There is work happening to replace the binder code with something new
that is happening right now, but I don't expect to see the results of
that work for another year at the earliest. If that ever happens, and
Android switches over to it, I'll gladly remove this version.
As for maintainers, I'll be glad to maintain this code, I've been doing
it for the past few years with no problems. I'll send a MAINTAINERS
entry for it before 3.19-final is out, still need to talk to the Google
developers about if they are willing to help with it or not, last I
checked they were, which was good.
All of these patches have been in linux-next for a while with no

The slab shrinkers are currently invoked from the zonelist walkers in
kswapd, direct reclaim, and zone reclaim, all of which roughly gauge the
eligible LRU pages and assemble a nodemask to pass to NUMA-aware
shrinkers, which then again have to walk over the nodemask. This is
redundant code, extra runtime work, and fairly inaccurate when it comes to
the estimation of actually scannable LRU pages. The code duplication will
only get worse when making the shrinkers cgroup-aware and requiring them
to have out-of-band cgroup hierarchy walks as well.
Instead, invoke the shrinkers from shrink_zone(), which is where all
reclaimers end up, to avoid this duplication.
Take the count for eligible LRU pages out of get_scan_count(), which
considers many more factors than just the availability of swap space, like
zone_reclaimable_pages() currently does. Accumulate the number over all
visited lruvecs to get the per-zone value.
Some nodes have multiple zones due to memory addressing restrictions. To
avoid putting too much pressure on the shrinkers, only invoke them once
for each such node, using the class zone of the allocation as the pivot
zone.
For now, this integrates the slab shrinking better into the reclaim logic
and gets rid of duplicative invocations from kswapd, direct reclaim, and
zone reclaim. It also prepares for cgroup-awareness, allowing
memcg-capable shrinkers to be added at the lruvec level without much
duplication of both code and runtime work.
This changes kswapd behavior, which used to invoke the shrinkers for each
zone, but with scan ratios gathered from the entire node, resulting in
meaningless pressure quantities on multi-zone nodes.
Zone reclaim behavior also changes. It used to shrink slabs until the
same amount of pages were shrunk as were reclaimed from the LRUs. Now it
merely invokes the shrinkers once with the zone's scan ratio, which makes
the shrinkers go easier on caches that implement aging and would prefer
feeding back pressure from recently used slab objects to unused LRU pages.

The functions ion_heap_destroy() and vfree() perform also input
parameter validation. Thus the test around the call is not needed.
This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

This function needs to be exported so it can be used by the NFSD module
when responding to the new ALLOCATE and DEALLOCATE operations in NFS
v4.2. Christoph Hellwig suggested renaming the function to stay
consistent with how other vfs functions are named.

A comment about a pre-existing bug data structure definition is added.
This bug was evidently introduced by Xiong Zhou in the patch
bd471258f2 ("staging: android: logger: use kuid_t instead of uid_t")
where the code was changed to hide a valid build warning instead of
solving the bug that was identified by it.

Since commit cd678fce42 ("switch logger to ->write_iter()"), any
attempt to write to the log results in the log data being written over
its own metadata, thus rendering the log unreadable.
The problem was first detected when I ran an Android userspace on the
v3.18-rc1 kernel. However the issue can also be observed with a
non-Android userspace by using echo/cat to write to/from /dev/log_main .
This patch resolves the problem by using a temporary to track the status
of not-yet-committed writes to the log buffer.

'timeval' is used to print timestamps in seconds and millisecond.
32-bit systems using 'struct timeval' will break in the year 2038,
So we have to replace that code with more appropriate types.
This patch changes the android driver to use timespec64.
Since this is a staging driver and the output is only used for a
debugfs file, it is fine to slightly change the output and
use nanoseconds instead. ktime_to_timespec64, is used which will return
seconds and nanoseconds.

The Android binder code has been "stable" for many years now. No matter
what comes in the future, we are going to have to support this API, so
might as well move it to the "real" part of the kernel as there's no
real work that needs to be done to the existing code.

Pull vfs updates from Al Viro:
"The big thing in this pile is Eric's unmount-on-rmdir series; we
finally have everything we need for that. The final piece of prereqs
is delayed mntput() - now filesystem shutdown always happens on
shallow stack.
Other than that, we have several new primitives for iov_iter (Matt
Wilcox, culled from his XIP-related series) pushing the conversion to
->read_iter()/ ->write_iter() a bit more, a bunch of fs/dcache.c
cleanups and fixes (including the external name refcounting, which
gives consistent behaviour of d_move() wrt procfs symlinks for long
and short names alike) and assorted cleanups and fixes all over the
place.
This is just the first pile; there's a lot of stuff from various
people that ought to go in this window. Starting with
unionmount/overlayfs mess... ;-/"
