Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe:
 "A small collection of fixes that should go into this cycle.

   - a pull request from Christoph for NVMe, which ended up being
     manually applied to avoid pulling in newer bits in master. Mostly
     fibre channel fixes from James, but also a few fixes from Jon and
     Vijay

   - a pull request from Konrad, with just a single fix for xen-blkback
     from Gustavo.

   - a fuseblk bdi fix from Jan, fixing a regression in this series with
     the dynamic backing devices.

   - a blktrace fix from Shaohua, replacing sscanf() with kstrtoull().

   - a request leak fix for drbd from Lars, fixing a regression in the
     last series with the kref changes. This will go to stable as well"

drbd: fix request leak introduced by locking/atomic, kref: Kill kref_sub()

2017-05-11T16:04:30+00:00

When killing kref_sub(), the unconditional additional kref_get()
was not properly paired with the necessary kref_put(), causing
a leak of struct drbd_requests (~ 224 Bytes) per submitted bio,
and breaking DRBD in general, as the destructor of those "drbd_requests"
does more than just the mempoll_free().

Merge tag 'ceph-for-4.12-rc1' of git://github.com/ceph/ceph-client

2017-05-10T15:42:33+00:00

Pull ceph updates from Ilya Dryomov:
 "The two main items are support for disabling automatic rbd exclusive
  lock transfers from myself and the long awaited -ENOSPC handling
  series from Jeff.

  The former will allow rbd users to take advantage of exclusive lock's
  built-in blacklist/break-lock functionality while staying in control
  of who owns the lock. With the latter in place, we will abort
  filesystem writes on -ENOSPC instead of having them block
  indefinitely.

  Beyond that we've got the usual pile of filesystem fixes from Zheng,
  some refcount_t conversion patches from Elena and a patch for an
  ancient open() flags handling bug from Alexander"

treewide: convert PF_MEMALLOC manipulations to new helpers

2017-05-09T00:15:15+00:00

We now have memalloc_noreclaim_{save,restore} helpers for robust setting
and clearing of PF_MEMALLOC.  Let's convert the code which was using the
generic tsk_restore_flags().  No functional change.

fs: ceph: CURRENT_TIME with ktime_get_real_ts()

2017-05-09T00:15:15+00:00

CURRENT_TIME is not y2038 safe.  The macro will be deleted and all the
references to it will be replaced by ktime_get_* apis.

struct timespec is also not y2038 safe.  Retain timespec for timestamp
representation here as ceph uses it internally everywhere.  These
references will be changed to use struct timespec64 in a separate patch.

The current_fs_time() api is being changed to use vfs struct inode* as
an argument instead of struct super_block*.

Set the new mds client request r_stamp field using ktime_get_real_ts()
instead of using current_fs_time().

Also, since r_stamp is used as mtime on the server, use timespec_trunc()
to truncate the timestamp, using the right granularity from the
superblock.

This api will be transitioned to be y2038 safe along with vfs.

mm, vmalloc: use __GFP_HIGHMEM implicitly

2017-05-09T00:15:13+00:00

__vmalloc* allows users to provide gfp flags for the underlying
allocation.  This API is quite popular

  $ git grep "=[[:space:]]__vmalloc\|return[[:space:]]*__vmalloc" | wc -l
  77

The only problem is that many people are not aware that they really want
to give __GFP_HIGHMEM along with other flags because there is really no
reason to consume precious lowmemory on CONFIG_HIGHMEM systems for pages
which are mapped to the kernel vmalloc space.  About half of users don't
use this flag, though.  This signals that we make the API unnecessarily
too complex.

This patch simply uses __GFP_HIGHMEM implicitly when allocating pages to
be mapped to the vmalloc space.  Current users which add __GFP_HIGHMEM
are simplified and drop the flag.

Pull block fixes and updates from Jens Axboe:
 "Some fixes and followup features/changes that should go in, in this
  merge window. This contains:

   - Two fixes for lightnvm from Javier, fixing problems in the new code
     merge previously in this merge window.

   - A fix from Jan for the backing device changes, fixing an issue in
     NFS that causes a failure to mount on certain setups.

   - A change from Christoph, cleaning up the blk-mq init and exit
     request paths.

   - Remove elevator_change(), which is now unused. From Bart.

   - A fix for queue operation invocation on a dead queue, from Bart.

   - A series fixing up mtip32xx for blk-mq scheduling, removing a
     bandaid we previously had in place for this. From me.

   - A regression fix for this series, fixing a case where we wait on
     workqueue flushing from an invalid (non-blocking) context. From me.

   - A fix/optimization from Ming, ensuring that we don't both quiesce
     and freeze a queue at the same time.

   - A fix from Peter on lock ordering for CPU hotplug. Not a real
     problem right now, but will be once the CPU hotplug rework goes in.

   - A series from Omar, cleaning up out blk-mq debugfs support, and
     adding support for exporting info from schedulers in debugfs as
     well. This is really useful in debugging stalls or livelocks. From
     Omar"
