<title>/proc/PID/smaps: consistent whitespace output format</title>

The keys in smaps output are padded to fixed width with spaces.  All
except for THPeligible that uses tabs (only since commit c06306696f83
("mm: thp: fix false negative of shmem vma's THP eligibility")).

Unify the output formatting to save time debugging some naïve parsers.
(Part of the unification is also aligning FilePmdMapped with others.)

This change converts the existing mmap_sem rwsem calls to use the new mmap
locking API instead.

The change is generated using coccinelle with the following rule:

<title>/proc/PID/smaps: Add PMD migration entry parsing</title>
<updated>2020-06-02T17:59:10+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=c94b6923fa0a954fbe14ea0168b9d324011fd817'/>
<id>c94b6923fa0a954fbe14ea0168b9d324011fd817</id>
<content type='text'>
Now, when reading /proc/PID/smaps, the PMD migration entry in page table
is simply ignored.  To improve the accuracy of /proc/PID/smaps, its
parsing and processing is added.

To test the patch, we run pmbench to eat 400 MB memory in background,
then run /usr/bin/migratepages and `cat /proc/PID/smaps` every second.
The issue as follows can be reproduced within 60 seconds.

Before the patch, for the fully populated 400 MB anonymous VMA, some THP
pages under migration may be lost as below.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
 "A sizeable pile of arm64 updates for 5.8.

  Summary below, but the big two features are support for Branch Target
  Identification and Clang's Shadow Call stack. The latter is currently
  arm64-only, but the high-level parts are all in core code so it could
  easily be adopted by other architectures pending toolchain support

  Branch Target Identification (BTI):

   - Support for ARMv8.5-BTI in both user- and kernel-space. This allows
     branch targets to limit the types of branch from which they can be
     called and additionally prevents branching to arbitrary code,
     although kernel support requires a very recent toolchain.

   - Function annotation via SYM_FUNC_START() so that assembly functions
     are wrapped with the relevant "landing pad" instructions.

   - BPF and vDSO updates to use the new instructions.

   - Addition of a new HWCAP and exposure of BTI capability to userspace
     via ID register emulation, along with ELF loader support for the
     BTI feature in .note.gnu.property.

   - Non-critical fixes to CFI unwind annotations in the sigreturn
     trampoline.

  Shadow Call Stack (SCS):

   - Support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack feature, which reserves
     platform register x18 to point at a separate stack for each task
     that holds only return addresses. This protects function return
     control flow from buffer overruns on the main stack.

   - Save/restore of x18 across problematic boundaries (user-mode,
     hypervisor, EFI, suspend, etc).

   - Core support for SCS, should other architectures want to use it
     too.

   - SCS overflow checking on context-switch as part of the existing
     stack limit check if CONFIG_SCHED_STACK_END_CHECK=y.

  CPU feature detection:

   - Removed numerous "SANITY CHECK" errors when running on a system
     with mismatched AArch32 support at EL1. This is primarily a concern
     for KVM, which disabled support for 32-bit guests on such a system.

   - Addition of new ID registers and fields as the architecture has
     been extended.

  Perf and PMU drivers:

   - Minor fixes and cleanups to system PMU drivers.

  Hardware errata:

   - Unify KVM workarounds for VHE and nVHE configurations.

   - Sort vendor errata entries in Kconfig.

  Secure Monitor Call Calling Convention (SMCCC):

   - Update to the latest specification from Arm (v1.2).

   - Allow PSCI code to query the SMCCC version.

  Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI):

   - Unexport a bunch of unused symbols.

   - Minor fixes to handling of firmware data.

  Pointer authentication:

   - Add support for dumping the kernel PAC mask in vmcoreinfo so that
     the stack can be unwound by tools such as kdump.

   - Simplification of key initialisation during CPU bringup.

  BPF backend:

   - Improve immediate generation for logical and add/sub instructions.

  vDSO:

   - Minor fixes to the linker flags for consistency with other
     architectures and support for LLVM's unwinder.

   - Clean up logic to initialise and map the vDSO into userspace.

  ACPI:

   - Work around for an ambiguity in the IORT specification relating to
     the "num_ids" field.

   - Support _DMA method for all named components rather than only PCIe
     root complexes.

   - Minor other IORT-related fixes.

  Miscellaneous:

   - Initialise debug traps early for KGDB and fix KDB cacheflushing
     deadlock.

   - Minor tweaks to early boot state (documentation update, set
     TEXT_OFFSET to 0x0, increase alignment of PE/COFF sections).

   - Refactoring and cleanup"
