mm: discard __GFP_ATOMIC

2022-06-27T20:44:58+00:00

__GFP_ATOMIC serves little purpose. Its main effect is to set ALLOC_HARDER which adds a few little boosts to increase the chance of an allocation succeeding, one of which is to lower the water-mark at which it will succeed. It is *always* paired with __GFP_HIGH which sets ALLOC_HIGH which also adjusts this watermark. It is probable that other users of __GFP_HIGH should benefit from the other little bonuses that __GFP_ATOMIC gets. __GFP_ATOMIC also gives a warning if used with __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM. There is little point to this. We already get a might_sleep() warning if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is set. __GFP_ATOMIC allows the "watermark_boost" to be side-stepped. It is probable that testing ALLOC_HARDER is a better fit here. __GFP_ATOMIC is used by tegra-smmu.c to check if the allocation might sleep. This should test __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM instead. This patch: - removes __GFP_ATOMIC - causes __GFP_HIGH to set ALLOC_HARDER unless __GFP_NOMEMALLOC is set (as well as ALLOC_HIGH). - makes other adjustments as suggested by the above. The net result is not change to GFP_ATOMIC allocations. Other allocations that use __GFP_HIGH will benefit from a few different extra privileges. This affects: xen, dm, md, ntfs3 the vermillion frame buffer hibernation ksm swap all of which likely produce more benefit than cost if these selected allocation are more likely to succeed quickly.

vsprintf: Make %pGp print the hex value

2021-10-27T11:40:14+00:00

All existing users of %pGp want the hex value as well as the decoded flag names. This looks awkward (passing the same parameter to printf twice), so move that functionality into the core. If we want, we can make that optional with flag arguments to %pGp in the future.

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek: - Add %pt[RT]s modifier to vsprintf(). It overrides ISO 8601 separator by using ' ' (space). It produces "YYYY-mm-dd HH:MM:SS" instead of "YYYY-mm-ddTHH:MM:SS". - Correctly parse long row of numbers by sscanf() when using the field width. Add extensive sscanf() selftest. - Generalize re-entrant CPU lock that has already been used to serialize dump_stack() output. It is part of the ongoing printk rework. It will allow to remove the obsoleted printk_safe buffers and introduce atomic consoles. - Some code clean up and sparse warning fixes. * tag 'printk-for-5.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux: printk: fix cpu lock ordering lib/dump_stack: move cpu lock to printk.c printk: Remove trailing semicolon in macros random32: Fix implicit truncation warning in prandom_seed_state() lib: test_scanf: Remove pointless use of type_min() with unsigned types selftests: lib: Add wrapper script for test_scanf lib: test_scanf: Add tests for sscanf number conversion lib: vsprintf: Fix handling of number field widths in vsscanf lib: vsprintf: scanf: Negative number must have field width > 1 usb: host: xhci-tegra: Switch to use %ptTs nilfs2: Switch to use %ptTs kdb: Switch to use %ptTs lib/vsprintf: Allow to override ISO 8601 date and time separator
