In the VF driver, module parameter mlx4_log_num_mgm_entry_size was
mistakenly overwritten -- and in a manner which overrode the
device-managed flow steering option encoded in the parameter.
log_num_mgm_entry_size is a global module parameter which
affects all ConnectX-3 PFs installed on that host.
If a VF changes log_num_mgm_entry_size, this will affect all PFs
which are probed subsequent to the change (by disabling DMFS for
those PFs).

====================
Mellanox mlx5e fixes for 4.11-rc1
This series includes some important bug fixes for mlx5e driver.
Three misc fixes:
From Mohamad, compilation fix on s390 system
From Me, A fix for driver unload when switchdev mode is on.
From Tariq, HW LRO frag size optimization for when build_skb is not used
(striding RQ mode).
Three CQE compression related fixes:
Two fixes from Tariq and I, to correctly setup CQE compression
parameters on driver load and on arbitrary user modifications.
Last patch, fixes a very critical issue that was originally reported
by Tom, where the driver reported csum errors or even page ref issues
for when cqe compression is enabled and rapidly active.
For your convenience this series was generated on top of net-next branch:
005c3490e9 ('Revert "ath10k: Search SMBIOS for OEM board file extension"')
for -stable:
net/mlx5e: Register/unregister vport representors on interface (for kernel >= 4.9)
net/mlx5e: Do not reduce LRO WQE size when not using build_skb (for kernel >= 4.9)
net/mlx5e: Fix broken CQE compression initialization (for kernel >= 4.9)
net/mlx5e: Update MPWQE stride size when modifying CQE compress state (for kernel >= 4.7)
net/mlx5e: Fix wrong CQE decompression (for kernel >= 4.7)
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
In cqe compression with striding RQ, the decompression of the CQE field
wqe_counter was done with a wrong wraparound value.
This caused handling cqes with a wrong pointer to wqe (rx descriptor)
and creating SKBs with wrong data, pointing to wrong (and already consumed)
strides/pages.
The meaning of the CQE field wqe_counter in striding RQ holds the
stride index instead of the WQE index. Hence, when decompressing
a CQE, wqe_counter should have wrapped-around the number of strides
in a single multi-packet WQE.
We dropped this wrap-around mask at all in CQE decompression of striding
RQ. It is not needed as in such cases the CQE compression session would
break because of different value of wqe_id field, starting a new
compression session.
Tested:
ethtool -K ethxx lro off/on
ethtool --set-priv-flags ethxx rx_cqe_compress on
super_netperf 16 {ipv4,ipv6} -t TCP_STREAM -m 50 -D
verified no csum errors and no page refcount issues.

When the admin enables/disables cqe compression, updating
mpwqe stride size is required:
CQE compress ON ==> stride size = 256B
CQE compress OFF ==> stride size = 64B
This is already done on driver load via mlx5e_set_rq_type_params, all we
need is just to call it on arbitrary admin changes of cqe compression
state via priv flags or when changing timestamping state
(as it is mutually exclusive with cqe compression).
This bug introduces no functional damage, it only makes cqe compression
occur less often, since in ConnectX4-LX CQE compression is performed
only on packets smaller than stride size.
Tested:
ethtool --set-priv-flags ethxx rx_cqe_compress on
pktgen with 64 < pkt size < 256 and netperf TCP_STREAM (IPv4/IPv6)
verify `ethtool -S ethxx | grep compress` are advancing more often

Some of RQ type parameters are derived from CQE compression state flag,
CQE compression flag was initialized only after RQ type parameters
setup. This leads to load RQ with stride size smaller than what we
want for when CQE compression is on.
This bug introduces no functional damage, it only makes CQE compression
occur less often, since in ConnectX4-LX CQE compression is performed
only on packets smaller than stride size.
Fix this by marking default status of CQE compression in PFLAG prior to
calling mlx5e_set_rq_priv_params(), as it inits some fields based on it.
Tested:
load driver on systems where rx CQE compress will be on (MH)
pktgen with 64 < pkt size < 256 and netperf TCP_STREAM (IPv4/IPv6)
verify `ethtool -S ethxx | grep compress` are advancing more often

Currently vport representors are added only on driver load and removed on
driver unload. Apparently we forgot to handle them when we added the
seamless reset flow feature. This caused to leave the representors
netdevs alive and active with open HW resources on pci shutdown and on
error reset flows.
To overcome this we move their handling to interface attach/detach, so
they would be cleaned up on shutdown and recreated on reset flows.

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Add Petr Mladek, Sergey Senozhatsky as printk maintainers, and Steven
Rostedt as the printk reviewer. This idea came up after the
discussion about printk issues at Kernel Summit. It was formulated
and discussed at lkml[1].
- Extend a lock-less NMI per-cpu buffers idea to handle recursive
printk() calls by Sergey Senozhatsky[2]. It is the first step in
sanitizing printk as discussed at Kernel Summit.
The change allows to see messages that would normally get ignored or
would cause a deadlock.
Also it allows to enable lockdep in printk(). This already paid off.
The testing in linux-next helped to discover two old problems that
were hidden before[3][4].
- Remove unused parameter by Sergey Senozhatsky. Clean up after a past
change.

The patch limits the first_num to actual range of possible buddy indexes.

We had a deprecated_attr_warn() warning for 2 years and now the time has
come and we finally can do the cleanup.
The plan was as follows:
: per-stat sysfs attributes are considered to be deprecated.
: The basic strategy is:
: -- the existing RW nodes will be downgraded to WO nodes (in linux 4.11)
: -- deprecated RO sysfs nodes will eventually be removed (in linux 4.11)
:
: The list of deprecated attributes can be found here:
: Documentation/ABI/obsolete/sysfs-block-zram
:
: Basically, every attribute that has its own read accessible sysfs
: node (e.g. num_reads) *AND* is accessible via one of the stat files
: (zram<id>/stat or zram<id>/io_stat or zram<id>/mm_stat) is considered
: to be deprecated.
The patch also removes `obsolete/sysfs-block-zram', clean ups
`testing/sysfs-block-zram' and tweaks zram.txt files.

The patch "mm, page_alloc: warn_alloc print nodemask" implicitly sets
the allocation nodemask to cpuset_current_mems_allowed when there is no
effective mempolicy. cpuset_current_mems_allowed is only effective when
cpusets are enabled, which is also printed by warn_alloc(), so setting
the nodemask to cpuset_current_mems_allowed is redundant and prevents
debugging issues where ac->nodemask is not set properly in the page
allocator.
This provides better debugging output since
cpuset_print_current_mems_allowed() is already provided.

Now that __GFP_NOFAIL doesn't override decisions to skip the oom killer
we are left with requests which require to loop inside the allocator
without invoking the oom killer (e.g. GFP_NOFS|__GFP_NOFAIL used by fs
code) and so they might, in very unlikely situations, loop for ever -
e.g. other parallel request could starve them.
This patch tries to limit the likelihood of such a lockup by giving
these __GFP_NOFAIL requests a chance to move on by consuming a small
part of memory reserves. We are using ALLOC_HARDER which should be
enough to prevent from the starvation by regular allocation requests,
yet it shouldn't consume enough from the reserves to disrupt high
priority requests (ALLOC_HIGH).
While we are at it, let's introduce a helper __alloc_pages_cpuset_fallback
which enforces the cpusets but allows to fallback to ignore them if the
first attempt fails. __GFP_NOFAIL requests can be considered important
enough to allow cpuset runaway in order for the system to move on. It
is highly unlikely that any of these will be GFP_USER anyway.

__alloc_pages_may_oom makes sure to skip the OOM killer depending on the
allocation request. This includes lowmem requests, costly high order
requests and others. For a long time __GFP_NOFAIL acted as an override
for all those rules. This is not documented and it can be quite
surprising as well. E.g. GFP_NOFS requests are not invoking the OOM
killer but GFP_NOFS|__GFP_NOFAIL does so if we try to convert some of
the existing open coded loops around allocator to nofail request (and we
have done that in the past) then such a change would have a non trivial
side effect which is far from obvious. Note that the primary motivation
for skipping the OOM killer is to prevent from pre-mature invocation.
The exception has been added by commit 82553a937f ("oom: invoke oom
killer for __GFP_NOFAIL"). The changelog points out that the oom killer
has to be invoked otherwise the request would be looping for ever. But
this argument is rather weak because the OOM killer doesn't really
guarantee a forward progress for those exceptional cases:
- it will hardly help to form costly order which in turn can result in
the system panic because of no oom killable task in the end - I believe
we certainly do not want to put the system down just because there is a
nasty driver asking for order-9 page with GFP_NOFAIL not realizing all
the consequences. It is much better this request would loop for ever
than the massive system disruption
- lowmem is also highly unlikely to be freed during OOM killer
- GFP_NOFS request could trigger while there is still a lot of memory
pinned by filesystems.
This patch simply removes the __GFP_NOFAIL special case in order to have a
more clear semantic without surprising side effects.

Tetsuo Handa has pointed out that commit 0a0337e0d1 ("mm, oom: rework
oom detection") has subtly changed semantic for costly high order
requests with __GFP_NOFAIL and withtout __GFP_REPEAT and those can fail
right now. My code inspection didn't reveal any such users in the tree
but it is true that this might lead to unexpected allocation failures
and subsequent OOPs.
__alloc_pages_slowpath wrt. GFP_NOFAIL is hard to follow currently.
There are few special cases but we are lacking a catch all place to be
sure we will not miss any case where the non failing allocation might
fail. This patch reorganizes the code a bit and puts all those special
cases under nopage label which is the generic go-to-fail path. Non
failing allocations are retried or those that cannot retry like
non-sleeping allocation go to the failure point directly. This should
make the code flow much easier to follow and make it less error prone
for future changes.
While we are there we have to move the stall check up to catch
potentially looping non-failing allocations.

show_mem() allows to filter out node specific data which is irrelevant
to the allocation request via SHOW_MEM_FILTER_NODES. The filtering is
done in skip_free_areas_node which skips all nodes which are not in the
mems_allowed of the current process. This works most of the time as
expected because the nodemask shouldn't be outside of the allocating
task but there are some exceptions. E.g. memory hotplug might want to
request allocations from outside of the allowed nodes (see
new_node_page).
Get rid of this hardcoded behavior and push the allocation mask down the
show_mem path and use it instead of cpuset_current_mems_allowed. NULL
nodemask is interpreted as cpuset_current_mems_allowed.

We have a generic implementation for quite some time already. If there
is any arch specific information to be printed then we should add a
callback called from the generic code rather than duplicate the whole
show_mem.
The current code has resulted in the code duplication and the output
divergence which is both confusing and adds maintainance costs.
Let's just get rid of this mess.

warn_alloc is currently used for to report an allocation failure or an
allocation stall. We print some details of the allocation request like
the gfp mask and the request order. We do not print the allocation
nodemask which is important when debugging the reason for the allocation
failure as well. We alreaddy print the nodemask in the OOM report.
Add nodemask to warn_alloc and print it in warn_alloc as well.
