<id>urn:sha1:8c3e34a4ff85142ca5dba3f18cbc2061899e2612</id>
<content type='text'>
Rename files matching net/rxrpc/ar-*.c to get rid of the "ar-" prefix.
This will aid splitting those files by making easier to come up with new
names.

Note that the not all files are simply renamed from ar-X.c to X.c.  The
following exceptions are made:

 (*) ar-call.c -&gt; call_object.c
     ar-ack.c -&gt; call_event.c

     call_object.c is going to contain the core of the call object
     handling.  Call event handling is all going to be in call_event.c.

 (*) ar-accept.c -&gt; call_accept.c

     Incoming call handling is going to be here.

 (*) ar-connection.c -&gt; conn_object.c
     ar-connevent.c -&gt; conn_event.c

     The former file is going to have the basic connection object handling,
     but there will likely be some differentiation between client
     connections and service connections in additional files later.  The
     latter file will have all the connection-level event handling.

 (*) ar-local.c -&gt; local_object.c

     This will have the local endpoint object handling code.  The local
     endpoint event handling code will later be split out into
     local_event.c.

 (*) ar-peer.c -&gt; peer_object.c

     This will have the peer endpoint object handling code.  Peer event
     handling code will be placed in peer_event.c (for the moment, there is
     none).

 (*) ar-error.c -&gt; peer_event.c

     This will become the peer event handling code, though for the moment
     it's actually driven from the local endpoint's perspective.

Note that I haven't renamed ar-transport.c to transport_object.c as the
intention is to delete it when the rxrpc_transport struct is excised.

The only file that actually has its contents changed is net/rxrpc/Makefile.

net/rxrpc/ar-internal.h will need its section marker comments updating, but
I'll do that in a separate patch to make it easier for git to follow the
history across the rename.  I may also want to rename ar-internal.h at some
point - but that would mean updating all the #includes and I'd rather do
that in a separate step.

<title>rxrpc: Simplify connect() implementation and simplify sendmsg() op</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2341e0775747864b684abe8627f3d45b167f2940</id>
<content type='text'>
Simplify the RxRPC connect() implementation.  It will just note the
destination address it is given, and if a sendmsg() comes along with no
address, this will be assigned as the address.  No transport struct will be
held internally, which will allow us to remove this later.

Simplify sendmsg() also.  Whilst a call is active, userspace refers to it
by a private unique user ID specified in a control message.  When sendmsg()
sees a user ID that doesn't map to an extant call, it creates a new call
for that user ID and attempts to add it.  If, when we try to add it, the
user ID is now registered, we now reject the message with -EEXIST.  We
should never see this situation unless two threads are racing, trying to
create a call with the same ID - which would be an error.

It also isn't required to provide sendmsg() with an address - provided the
control message data holds a user ID that maps to a currently active call.

Use the more common kernel logging style and reduce object size.

The logging message prefix changes from a mixture of
"RxRPC:" and "RXRPC:" to "af_rxrpc: ".

$ size net/rxrpc/built-in.o*

Miscellanea:

o Consolidate the ASSERT macros to use a single pr_err call with
  decimal and hexadecimal output and a stringified #OP argument

Create a null security type for security index 0 and get rid of all
conditional calls to the security operations.  We expect normally to be
using security, so this should be of little negative impact.

Don't pass gfp around in incoming call handling functions, but rather hard
code it at the points where we actually need it since the value comes from
within the rxrpc driver and is always the same.

<title>rxrpc: Keep the skb private record of the Rx header in host byte order</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently, a copy of the Rx packet header is copied into the the sk_buff
private data so that we can advance the pointer into the buffer,
potentially discarding the original.  At the moment, this copy is held in
network byte order, but this means we're doing a lot of unnecessary
translations.

The reasons it was done this way are that we need the values in network
byte order occasionally and we can use the copy, slightly modified, as part
of an iov array when sending an ack or an abort packet.

However, it seems more reasonable on review that it would be better kept in
host byte order and that we make up a new header when we want to send
another packet.

To this end, rename the original header struct to rxrpc_wire_header (with
BE fields) and institute a variant called rxrpc_host_header that has host
order fields.  Change the struct in the sk_buff private data into an
rxrpc_host_header and translate the values when filling it in.

This further allows us to keep values kept in various structures in host
byte order rather than network byte order and allows removal of some fields
that are byteswapped duplicates.

<title>mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable to sleep, unwilling to sleep and avoiding waking kswapd</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d0164adc89f6bb374d304ffcc375c6d2652fe67d</id>
<content type='text'>
__GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold
spinlocks or are in interrupts.  They are expected to be high priority and
have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred
to as the "atomic reserve".  __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first
lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve".

Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options
were available.  Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where
an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic
reserves.

This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic,
cannot sleep and have no alternative.  High priority users continue to use
__GFP_HIGH.  __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and
are willing to enter direct reclaim.  __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify
callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim.  __GFP_WAIT is
redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake
kswapd for background reclaim.

This patch then converts a number of sites

o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory
  pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag.

o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear
  __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall
  into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves
  are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress.

o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the
  helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because
  checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false
  positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent
  is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to
  flag manipulations.

o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL
  and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.

The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT
and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons.
In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH.

The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of
GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL.  They may
now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.  It's almost certainly harmless
if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

lifetime of a call and the expiration times of calls, connections and
transports that haven't been recently used.
