    the jack "id" field:

            snprintf(jack->name, sizeof(jack->name), "%s %s",

    This shows exactly how btrfs processes the delayed refs onto disks,
    which is very helpful on understanding delayed ref mechanism and

    Btrfs: add file item tracepoints

    While debugging truncate problems, I found that these tracepoints could
    help us quickly know what went wrong.

    Two sets of tracepoints are created to track regular/prealloc file item
    and inline file item respectively, I put inline as a separate one since
    what inline file items cares about are way less than the regular one.

    This adds four tracepoints:
    - btrfs_get_extent_show_fi_regular
    - btrfs_get_extent_show_fi_inline
    - btrfs_truncate_show_fi_regular
    - btrfs_truncate_show_fi_inline

    BUILD_BUG_ON(): fix it and a couple of bogus uses of it

    gcc permitting variable length arrays makes the current construct used for
    BUILD_BUG_ON() useless, as that doesn't produce any diagnostic if the
    controlling expression isn't really constant.  Instead, this patch makes
    it so that a bit field gets used here.  Consequently, those uses where the
    condition isn't really constant now also need fixing.

    Note that in the gfp.h, kmemcheck.h, and virtio_config.h cases
    MAYBE_BUILD_BUG_ON() really just serves documentation purposes - even if
    the expression is compile time constant (__builtin_constant_p() yields
    true), the array is still deemed of variable length by gcc, and hence the
    whole expression doesn't have the intended effect.

    BUILD_BUG_ON: make it handle more cases

    BUILD_BUG_ON used to use the optimizer to do code elimination or fail
    at link time; it was changed to first the size of a negative array (a
    nicer compile time error), then (in
    8c87df457cb58fe75b9b893007917cf8095660a0) to a bitfield.

    This forced us to change some non-constant cases to MAYBE_BUILD_BUG_ON();
    as Jan points out in that commit, it didn't work as intended anyway.

    bitfields: needs a literal constant at parse time, and can't be put under
            "if (__builtin_constant_p(x))" for example.
    negative array: can handle anything, but if the compiler can't tell it's
            a constant, silently has no effect.
    link time: breaks link if the compiler can't determine the value, but the
            linker output is not usually as informative as a compiler error.

    If we use the negative-array-size method *and* the link time trick,
    we get the ability to use BUILD_BUG_ON() under __builtin_constant_p()
    branches, and maximal ability for the compiler to detect errors at
    build time.

    We also document it thoroughly.

    The trace event trace_mm_vmscan_lru_shrink_inactive() currently has 12

    structure is currently local to mm/vmscan.c.  By moving it to the global
    vmstat.h header, we can also reference it from the vmscan tracepoints.
    In moving it, it brings down the overhead of passing so many arguments
    to the trace event.  In the future, we may limit the number of arguments

    mm, page_alloc: wakeup kcompactd even if kswapd cannot free more memory

    Kswapd will not wakeup if per-zone watermarks are not failing or if too
    many previous attempts at background reclaim have failed.

    This can be true if there is a lot of free memory available.  For high-
    order allocations, kswapd is responsible for waking up kcompactd for
    background compaction.  If the zone is not below its watermarks or
    reclaim has recently failed (lots of free memory, nothing left to
    reclaim), kcompactd does not get woken up.

    When __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is not allowed, allow kcompactd to still be
    woken up even if kswapd will not reclaim.  This allows high-order
    allocations, such as thp, to still trigger background compaction even
    when the zone has an abundance of free memory.

    end of an atomic section which can be used by a trace viewer like
    systrace to graphically view the start and end of an atomic section and

A malformed packet may contain a valid IPv4/IPv6 header, but an

formed IPv4/IPv6 header, including the "protocol" or "nexthdr"

This scenario leads to an unreadable CTF trace, because the

event.

Therefore, using the IP header fields as selector for the

Fix: ACCESS_ONCE() removed in kernel 4.15

The ACCESS_ONCE() macro was removed in kernel 4.15 and should be
replaced by READ_ONCE and WRITE_ONCE which were introduced in kernel
3.19.

This commit replaces all calls to ACCESS_ONCE() with the appropriate
READ_ONCE or WRITE_ONCE and adds compatibility macros for kernels that
have them.

    locking/atomics, mm: Convert ACCESS_ONCE() to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE()

    For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
    preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
    former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
    ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't currently harmful.

    However, for some features it is necessary to instrument reads and
    writes separately, which is not possible with ACCESS_ONCE(). This
    distinction is critical to correct operation.

    It's possible to transform the bulk of kernel code using the Coccinelle
    script below. However, this doesn't handle comments, leaving references
    to ACCESS_ONCE() instances which have been removed. As a preparatory
    step, this patch converts the mm code and comments to use
    {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() consistently.

    timer: Prepare to change timer callback argument type

    Modern kernel callback systems pass the structure associated with a
    given callback to the callback function. The timer callback remains one
    of the legacy cases where an arbitrary unsigned long argument continues
    to be passed as the callback argument. This has several problems:

    - This bloats the timer_list structure with a normally redundant
      .data field.

    - No type checking is being performed, forcing callbacks to do
      explicit type casts of the unsigned long argument into the object
      that was passed, rather than using container_of(), as done in most
      of the other callback infrastructure.

    - Neighboring buffer overflows can overwrite both the .function and
      the .data field, providing attackers with a way to elevate from a buffer
      overflow into a simplistic ROP-like mechanism that allows calling
      arbitrary functions with a controlled first argument.

    - For future Control Flow Integrity work, this creates a unique function
      prototype for timer callbacks, instead of allowing them to continue to
      be clustered with other void functions that take a single unsigned long
      argument.

    This adds a new timer initialization API, which will ultimately replace
    the existing setup_timer(), setup_{deferrable,pinned,etc}_timer() family,
    named timer_setup() (to mirror hrtimer_setup(), making instances of its
    use much easier to grep for).

    In order to support the migration of existing timers into the new
    callback arguments, timer_setup() casts its arguments to the existing
    legacy types, and explicitly passes the timer pointer as the legacy
    data argument. Once all setup_*timer() callers have been replaced with
    timer_setup(), the casts can be removed, and the data argument can be
    dropped with the timer expiration code changed to just pass the timer
    to the callback directly.

    dropped with the timer expiration code changed to just pass the timer

    Since the regular pattern of using container_of() during local variable
    declaration repeats the need for the variable type declaration
    to be included, this adds a helper modeled after other from_*()
    helpers that wrap container_of(), named from_timer(). This helper uses
    typeof(*variable), removing the type redundancy and minimizing the need
    for line wraps in forthcoming conversions from "unsigned data long" to
    "struct timer_list *" in the timer callbacks:

    -void callback(unsigned long data)
    +void callback(struct timer_list *t)
    {
    -   struct some_data_structure *local = (struct some_data_structure *)data;
    +   struct some_data_structure *local = from_timer(local, t, timer);

    Finally, in order to support the handful of timer users that perform
    open-coded assignments of the .function (and .data) fields, provide
    cast macros (TIMER_FUNC_TYPE and TIMER_DATA_TYPE) that can be used
    temporarily. Once conversion has been completed, these can be globally
    trivially removed.
