Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"There was some breakage with the changes for jump labels in the 4.11
merge window:
- powerpc broke as jump labels uses the two LSB bits as flags in
initialization.
A check was added to make sure that all jump label entries were 4
bytes aligned, but powerpc didn't work that way for modules. Adding
an alignment in the module linker script appeared to be the best
solution.
- Jump labels also added an anonymous union to access those LSB bits
as a normal long. But because this structure had static
initialization, it broke older compilers that could not statically
initialize anonymous unions without brackets.
- The command line parameter for setting function graph filter broke
the "EMPTY_HASH" descriptor by modifying it instead of creating a
new hash to hold the entries.
- The command line parameter ftrace_graph_max_depth was added to
allow its setting at boot time. It uses existing code and only the
command line hook was added.
This is not really a fix, but as it uses existing code without
affecting anything else, I added it to this release. It was ready
before the merge window closed, but I wanted to let it sit in
linux-next for a couple of days first"

There are several trace include files that define TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE.
Include several of them in the same .c file (as I currently have in
some code I am working on), and the compile will blow up with a
"warning: "TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE" redefined #define TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE syscalls"
Every other include file in include/trace/events/ avoids that issue
by having a #undef TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE before the #define; syscalls.h
should have one, too.

<linux/sched/numa_balancing.h>
We are going to split <linux/sched/numa_balancing.h> out of <linux/sched.h>, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.
Create a trivial placeholder <linux/sched/numa_balancing.h> file that just
maps to <linux/sched.h> to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.
Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

All the routines by which rxrpc is accessed from the outside are serialised
by means of the socket lock (sendmsg, recvmsg, bind,
rxrpc_kernel_begin_call(), ...) and this presents a problem:
(1) If a number of calls on the same socket are in the process of
connection to the same peer, a maximum of four concurrent live calls
are permitted before further calls need to wait for a slot.
(2) If a call is waiting for a slot, it is deep inside sendmsg() or
rxrpc_kernel_begin_call() and the entry function is holding the socket
lock.
(3) sendmsg() and recvmsg() or the in-kernel equivalents are prevented
from servicing the other calls as they need to take the socket lock to
do so.
(4) The socket is stuck until a call is aborted and makes its slot
available to the waiter.
Fix this by:
(1) Provide each call with a mutex ('user_mutex') that arbitrates access
by the users of rxrpc separately for each specific call.
(2) Make rxrpc_sendmsg() and rxrpc_recvmsg() unlock the socket as soon as
they've got a call and taken its mutex.
Note that I'm returning EWOULDBLOCK from recvmsg() if MSG_DONTWAIT is
set but someone else has the lock. Should I instead only return
EWOULDBLOCK if there's nothing currently to be done on a socket, and
sleep in this particular instance because there is something to be
done, but we appear to be blocked by the interrupt handler doing its
ping?
(3) Make rxrpc_new_client_call() unlock the socket after allocating a new
call, locking its user mutex and adding it to the socket's call tree.
The call is returned locked so that sendmsg() can add data to it
immediately.
From the moment the call is in the socket tree, it is subject to
access by sendmsg() and recvmsg() - even if it isn't connected yet.
(4) Lock new service calls in the UDP data_ready handler (in
rxrpc_new_incoming_call()) because they may already be in the socket's
tree and the data_ready handler makes them live immediately if a user
ID has already been preassigned.
Note that the new call is locked before any notifications are sent
that it is live, so doing mutex_trylock() *ought* to always succeed.
Userspace is prevented from doing sendmsg() on calls that are in a
too-early state in rxrpc_do_sendmsg().
(5) Make rxrpc_new_incoming_call() return the call with the user mutex
held so that a ping can be scheduled immediately under it.
Note that it might be worth moving the ping call into
rxrpc_new_incoming_call() and then we can drop the mutex there.
(6) Make rxrpc_accept_call() take the lock on the call it is accepting and
release the socket after adding the call to the socket's tree. This
is slightly tricky as we've dequeued the call by that point and have
to requeue it.
Note that requeuing emits a trace event.
(7) Make rxrpc_kernel_send_data() and rxrpc_kernel_recv_data() take the
new mutex immediately and don't bother with the socket mutex at all.
This patch has the nice bonus that calls on the same socket are now to some
extent parallelisable.
Note that we might want to move rxrpc_service_prealloc() calls out from the
socket lock and give it its own lock, so that we don't hang progress in
other calls because we're waiting for the allocator.
We probably also want to avoid calling rxrpc_notify_socket() from within
the socket lock (rxrpc_accept_call()).

Memory pressure can put dirty pages at the end of the LRU without
anybody running into dirty limits. Don't start writing individual pages
from kswapd while the flushers might be asleep.
Unlike the old direct reclaim flusher wakeup (removed in the next patch)
that flushes the number of pages just scanned, this patch wakes the
flushers for all outstanding dirty pages. That seemed to perform better
in a synthetic test that pushes dirty pages to the end of the LRU and
into reclaim, because we know LRU aging outstrips writeback already, and
this way we give younger dirty pages a headstart rather than wait until
reclaim runs into them as well. It also means less plugging and risk of
exhausting the struct request pool from reclaim.
There is a concern that this will cause temporary files that used to get
dirtied and truncated before writeback to now get written to disk under
memory pressure. If this turns out to be a real problem, we'll have to
revisit this and tame the reclaim flusher wakeups.

We need to flush data writes before flushing last node block writes by using
FUA with PREFLUSH. We don't need to guarantee precedent node writes since if
those are not written, we can't reach to the last node block when scanning
node block chain during roll-forward recovery.
Afterwards f2fs_wait_on_page_writeback guarantees all the IO submission to
disk, which builds a valid node block chain.

Currently we have tracepoints for both active and inactive LRU lists
reclaim but we do not have any which would tell us why we we decided to
age the active list. Without that it is quite hard to diagnose
active/inactive lists balancing. Add mm_vmscan_inactive_list_is_low
tracepoint to tell us this information.

mm_vmscan_lru_shrink_inactive will currently report the number of
scanned and reclaimed pages. This doesn't give us an idea how the
reclaim went except for the overall effectiveness though. Export and
show other counters which will tell us why we couldn't reclaim some
pages.
- nr_dirty, nr_writeback, nr_congested and nr_immediate tells
us how many pages are blocked due to IO
- nr_activate tells us how many pages were moved to the active
list
- nr_ref_keep reports how many pages are kept on the LRU due
to references (mostly for the file pages which are about to
go for another round through the inactive list)
- nr_unmap_fail - how many pages failed to unmap
All these are rather low level so they might change in future but the
tracepoint is already implementation specific so no tools should be
depending on its stability.

mm_vmscan_lru_isolate currently prints only whether the LRU we isolate
from is file or anonymous but we do not know which LRU this is.
It is useful to know whether the list is active or inactive, since we
are using the same function to isolate pages from both of them and it's
hard to distinguish otherwise.

mm_vmscan_lru_isolate shows the number of requested, scanned and taken
pages. This is mostly OK but on 32b systems the number of scanned pages
is quite misleading because it includes both the scanned and skipped
pages. Moreover the skipped part is scaled based on the number of taken
pages. Let's report the exact numbers without any additional logic and
add the number of skipped pages.
This should make the reported data much more easier to interpret.

Our reclaim process has several tracepoints to tell us more about how
things are progressing. We are, however, missing a tracepoint to track
active list aging. Introduce mm_vmscan_lru_shrink_active which reports
the number of
- nr_taken is number of isolated pages from the active list
- nr_referenced pages which tells us that we are hitting referenced
pages which are deactivated. If this is a large part of the
reported nr_deactivated pages then we might be hitting into
the active list too early because they might be still part of
the working set. This might help to debug performance issues.
- nr_active pages which tells us how many pages are kept on the
active list - mostly exec file backed pages. A high number can
indicate that we might be trashing on executables.

Patch series "vm, vmscan: enahance vmscan tracepoints", v2.
While debugging [2] I've realized that there is some room for
improvements in the tracepoints set we offer currently. I had hard
times to make any conclusion from the existing ones. The resulting
problem turned out to be active list aging [3] and we are missing at
least two tracepoints to debug such a problem.
Some existing tracepoints could export more information to see _why_ the
reclaim progress cannot be made not only _how much_ we could reclaim.
The later could be seen quite reasonably from the vmstat counters
already. It can be argued that we are showing too many implementation
details in those tracepoints but I consider them way too lowlevel
already to be usable by any kernel independent userspace. I would be
_really_ surprised if anything but debugging tools have used them.
Any feedback is highly appreciated.

Higher order requests oom debugging is currently quite hard. We do have
some compaction points which can tell us how the compaction is operating
but there is no trace point to tell us about compaction retry logic.
This patch adds a one which will have the following format
bash-3126 [001] .... 1498.220001: compact_retry: order=9 priority=COMPACT_PRIO_SYNC_LIGHT compaction_result=withdrawn retries=0 max_retries=16 should_retry=0
we can see that the order 9 request is not retried even though we are in
the highest compaction priority mode becase the last compaction attempt
was withdrawn. This means that compaction_zonelist_suitable must have
returned false and there is no suitable zone to compact for this request
and so no need to retry further.
another example would be
<...>-3137 [001] .... 81.501689: compact_retry: order=9 priority=COMPACT_PRIO_SYNC_LIGHT compaction_result=failed retries=0 max_retries=16 should_retry=0
in this case the order-9 compaction failed to find any suitable block.
We do not retry anymore because this is a costly request and those do
not go below COMPACT_PRIO_SYNC_LIGHT priority.

should_reclaim_retry is the central decision point for declaring the
OOM. It might be really useful to expose data used for this decision
making when debugging an unexpected oom situations.
Say we have an OOM report:
[ 52.264001] mem_eater invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x24280ca(GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE|__GFP_ZERO), nodemask=0, order=0, oom_score_adj=0

Now we can check the tracepoint data to see how we have ended up in this
situation:

The above shows that we can quickly deduce that the reclaim stopped
making any progress (see no_progress_loops increased in each round) and
while there were still some 51 reclaimable pages they couldn't be
dropped for some reason (vmscan trace points would tell us more about
that part). available will represent reclaimable + free_pages scaled
down per no_progress_loops factor. This is essentially an optimistic
estimate of how much memory we would have when reclaiming everything.
This can be compared to min_wmark to get a rought idea but the
wmark_check tells the result of the watermark check which is more
precise (includes lowmem reserves, considers the order etc.). As we can
see no zone is eligible in the end and that is why we have triggered the
oom in this situation.
Please note that higher order requests might fail on the wmark_check
even when there is much more memory available than min_wmark - e.g.
when the memory is fragmented. A follow up tracepoint will help to
debug those situations.

COMPACTION_STATUS resp. ZONE_TYPE are currently used to translate enum
compact_result resp. struct zone index into their symbolic names for an
easier post processing. The follow up patch would like to reuse this as
well. The code involves some preprocessor black magic which is better not
duplicated elsewhere so move it to a common mm tracing relate header.

Instead of passing in multiple parameters in the pmd_fault() handler,
a vmf can be passed in just like a fault() handler. This will simplify
code and remove the need for the actual pmd fault handlers to allocate a
vmf. Related functions are also modified to do the same.

Tracepoints are the standard way to capture debugging and tracing
information in many parts of the kernel, including the XFS and ext4
filesystems. Create a tracepoint header for FS DAX and add the first DAX
tracepoints to the PMD fault handler. This allows the tracing for DAX to
be done in the same way as the filesystem tracing so that developers can
look at them together and get a coherent idea of what the system is doing.
I added both an entry and exit tracepoint because future patches will add
tracepoints to child functions of dax_iomap_pmd_fault() like
dax_pmd_load_hole() and dax_pmd_insert_mapping(). We want those messages
to be wrapped by the parent function tracepoints so the code flow is more
easily understood. Having entry and exit tracepoints for faults also
allows us to easily see what filesystems functions were called during the
fault. These filesystem functions get executed via iomap_begin() and
iomap_end() calls, for example, and will have their own tracepoints.
For PMD faults we primarily want to understand the type of mapping, the
fault flags, the faulting address and whether it fell back to 4k faults.
If it fell back to 4k faults the tracepoints should let us understand why.
I named the new tracepoint header file "fs_dax.h" to allow for device DAX
to have its own separate tracing header in the same directory at some
point.
Here is an example output for these events from a successful PMD fault:
big-1441 [005] .... 32.582758: xfs_filemap_pmd_fault: dev 259:0 ino 0x1003

Patch series "DAX tracepoints, mm argument simplification", v4.
This contains both my DAX tracepoint code and Dave Jiang's MM argument
simplifications. Dave's code was written with my tracepoint code as a
baseline, so it seemed simplest to keep them together in a single series.
This patch (of 7):
Add __print_flags_u64() and the helper trace_print_flags_seq_u64() in the
same spirit as __print_symbolic_u64() and trace_print_symbols_seq_u64().
These functions allow us to print symbols associated with flags that are
64 bits wide even on 32 bit machines.
These will be used by the DAX code so that we can print the flags set in a
pfn_t such as PFN_SG_CHAIN, PFN_SG_LAST, PFN_DEV and PFN_MAP.
Without this new function I was getting errors like the following when
compiling for i386:
include/linux/pfn_t.h:13:22: warning: large integer implicitly truncated to unsigned type [-Woverflow]
#define PFN_SG_CHAIN (1ULL << (BITS_PER_LONG_LONG - 1))
