Hulk Robot reported a panic in put_page_testzero() when testing
madvise() with MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE.  The BUG() is triggered when retrying
get_any_page().  This is because we keep MF_COUNT_INCREASED flag in
second try but the refcnt is not increased.

<title>mm, hwpoison: fix condition in free hugetlb page path</title>

<content type='text'>
When a memory error hits a tail page of a free hugepage,
__page_handle_poison() is expected to be called to isolate the error in
4kB unit, but it's not called due to the outdated if-condition in
memory_failure_hugetlb().  This loses the chance to isolate the error in
the finer unit, so it's not optimal.  Drop the condition.

This "(p != head &amp;&amp; TestSetPageHWPoison(head)" condition is based on the
old semantics of PageHWPoison on hugepage (where PG_hwpoison flag was
set on the subpage), so it's not necessray any more.  By getting to set
PG_hwpoison on head page for hugepages, concurrent error events on
different subpages in a single hugepage can be prevented by
TestSetPageHWPoison(head) at the beginning of memory_failure_hugetlb().
So dropping the condition should not reopen the race window originally
mentioned in commit b985194c8c0a ("hwpoison, hugetlb:
lock_page/unlock_page does not match for handling a free hugepage")

This reverts commit b9d02f1bdd98f38e6e5ecacc9786a8f58f3f8b2c.

The error handling of that patch was fundamentally broken, and it needs
to be entirely re-done.

For example, in shmem_write_begin() it would call shmem_getpage(), then
ignore the error return from that, and look at the page pointer contents
instead.

And in shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp(), the patch tested PageHWPoison() on
a page pointer that two lines earlier had potentially been set as an
error pointer.

These issues could be individually fixed, but when it has this many
issues, I'm just reverting it instead of waiting for fixes.

support for tmpfs and read-only file cache has been added.  They could
be offlined by split THP, just like anonymous THP.

<title>mm: shmem: don't truncate page if memory failure happens</title>

<id>b9d02f1bdd98f38e6e5ecacc9786a8f58f3f8b2c</id>
<content type='text'>
The current behavior of memory failure is to truncate the page cache
regardless of dirty or clean.  If the page is dirty the later access
will get the obsolete data from disk without any notification to the
users.  This may cause silent data loss.  It is even worse for shmem
since shmem is in-memory filesystem, truncating page cache means
discarding data blocks.  The later read would return all zero.

The right approach is to keep the corrupted page in page cache, any
later access would return error for syscalls or SIGBUS for page fault,
until the file is truncated, hole punched or removed.  The regular
storage backed filesystems would be more complicated so this patch is
focused on shmem.  This also unblock the support for soft offlining
shmem THP.

<title>mm: hwpoison: refactor refcount check handling</title>

Memory failure will report failure if the page still has extra pinned
refcount other than from hwpoison after the handler is done.  Actually
the check is not necessary for all handlers, so move the check into
specific handlers.  This would make the following keeping shmem page in
page cache patch easier.

There may be expected extra pin for some cases, for example, when the
page is dirty and in swapcache.

<title>mm/memory_failure: constify static mm_walk_ops</title>

The only usage of hwp_walk_ops is to pass its address to
walk_page_range() which takes a pointer to const mm_walk_ops as
argument.

Make it const to allow the compiler to put it in read-only memory.

Not required at all, and having this causes a huge kernel rebuild as
soon as something in dax.h changes.

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:

 - Extend %pGp print format to print hex value of the page flags

 - Use kvmalloc instead of kmalloc to allocate devkmsg buffers

 - Misc cleanup and warning fixes

  vsprintf: Update %pGp documentation about that it prints hex value
  lib/vsprintf.c: Amend static asserts for format specifier flags
  vsprintf: Make %pGp print the hex value
  test_printf: Append strings more efficiently
  test_printf: Remove custom appending of '|'
  test_printf: Remove separate page_flags variable
  test_printf: Make pft array const
  ia64: don't do IA64_CMPXCHG_DEBUG without CONFIG_PRINTK
  printk: use gnu_printf format attribute for printk_sprint()
  printk: avoid -Wsometimes-uninitialized warning
  printk: use kvmalloc instead of kmalloc for devkmsg_user
