The code to implement THP migrations already exists, and the code for CMA
to clear out a region of memory already exists.
Only a few small tweaks are needed to allow CMA to move THP memory when
attempting an allocation from alloc_contig_range.
With these changes, migrating THPs from a CMA area works when allocating a
1GB hugepage from CMA memory.

Patch series "fix THP migration for CMA allocations", v2.
Transparent huge pages are allocated with __GFP_MOVABLE, and can end up in
CMA memory blocks. Transparent huge pages also have most of the
infrastructure in place to allow migration.
However, a few pieces were missing, causing THP migration to fail when
attempting to use CMA to allocate 1GB hugepages.
With these patches in place, THP migration from CMA blocks seems to work,
both for anonymous THPs and for tmpfs/shmem THPs.
This patch (of 2):
Add information to struct compact_control to indicate that the allocator
would really like to clear out this specific part of memory, used by for
example CMA.

kswapd kernel thread starts either with a CPU affinity set to the full cpu
mask of its target node or without any affinity at all if the node is
CPUless. There is a cpu hotplug callback (kswapd_cpu_online) that
implements an elaborate way to update this mask when a cpu is onlined.
It is not really clear whether there is any actual benefit from this
scheme. Completely CPU-less NUMA nodes rarely gain a new CPU during
runtime. Drop the code for that reason. If there is a real usecase then
we can resurrect and simplify the code.

Previously if branch condition was false, the assignment was not executed.
The assignment can be safely executed even when the condition is false
and it is not incorrect as it assigns the value of 'nodemask' to
'ac.nodemask' which already has the same value.
So as the assignment can be executed unconditionally, the branch can be
removed.

Currently, the vm.min_free_kbytes sysctl value is capped at a hardcoded
64M in init_per_zone_wmark_min (unless it is overridden by khugepaged
initialization).
This value has not been modified since 2005, and enterprise-grade systems
now frequently have hundreds of GB of RAM and multiple 10, 40, or even 100
GB NICs. We have seen page allocation failures on heavily loaded systems
related to NIC drivers. These issues were resolved by an increase to
vm.min_free_kbytes.
This patch increases the hardcoded value by a factor of 4 as a temporary
solution.
Further work to make the calculation of vm.min_free_kbytes more consistent
throughout the kernel would be desirable.
As an example of the inconsistency of the current method, this value is
recalculated by init_per_zone_wmark_min() in the case of memory hotplug
which will override the value set by set_recommended_min_free_kbytes()
called during khugepaged initialization even if khugepaged remains
enabled, however an on/off toggle of khugepaged will then recalculate and
set the value via set_recommended_min_free_kbytes().

The patchset helps to produce a KASAN report when size is negative in

undefined behavior issue. Patch 1 based on Dmitry's review and
suggestion, patch 2 is a test in order to verify the patch 1.

This patch (of 2):
KASAN missed detecting size is a negative number in memset(), memcpy(),
and memmove(), it will cause out-of-bounds bug. So needs to be detected
by KASAN.
If size is a negative number, then it has a reason to be defined as
out-of-bounds bug type. Casting negative numbers to size_t would indeed
turn up as a large size_t and its value will be larger than ULONG_MAX/2,
so that this can qualify as out-of-bounds.

When allocating memmap for hot added memory with the classic sparse, the
specified 'nid' is ignored in populate_section_memmap().
While in allocating memmap for the classic sparse during boot, the node
given by 'nid' is preferred. And VMEMMAP prefers the node of 'nid' in
both boot stage and memory hot adding. So seems no reason to not respect
the node of 'nid' for the classic sparse when hot adding memory.
Use kvmalloc_node instead to use the passed in 'nid'.

memmap should be the address to page struct instead of address to pfn.
As mentioned by David, if system memory and devmem sit within a section,
the mismatch address would lead kdump to dump unexpected memory.
Since sub-section only works for SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, pfn_to_page() is valid
to get the page struct address at this point.

When remapping an anonymous, private mapping, if MREMAP_DONTUNMAP is set,
the source mapping will not be removed. The remap operation will be
performed as it would have been normally by moving over the page tables to
the new mapping. The old vma will have any locked flags cleared, have no
pagetables, and any userfaultfds that were watching that range will
continue watching it.
For a mapping that is shared or not anonymous, MREMAP_DONTUNMAP will cause
the mremap() call to fail. Because MREMAP_DONTUNMAP always results in
moving a VMA you MUST use the MREMAP_MAYMOVE flag, it's not possible to
resize a VMA while also moving with MREMAP_DONTUNMAP so old_len must
always be equal to the new_len otherwise it will return -EINVAL.
We hope to use this in Chrome OS where with userfaultfd we could write an
anonymous mapping to disk without having to STOP the process or worry
about VMA permission changes.
This feature also has a use case in Android, Lokesh Gidra has said that
"As part of using userfaultfd for GC, We'll have to move the physical
pages of the java heap to a separate location. For this purpose mremap
will be used. Without the MREMAP_DONTUNMAP flag, when I mremap the java
heap, its virtual mapping will be removed as well. Therefore, we'll
require performing mmap immediately after. This is not only time
consuming but also opens a time window where a native thread may call mmap
and reserve the java heap's address range for its own usage. This flag
solves the problem."

Even on 64 bit kernel, the mmap failure can happen for a 32 bit task.
Virtual memory space shortage of a task on mmap is reported to userspace
as -ENOMEM. It can be confused as physical memory shortage of overall
system.
The vm_unmapped_area can be called to by some drivers or other kernel core
system like filesystem. In my platform, GPU driver calls to
vm_unmapped_area and the driver returns -ENOMEM even in GPU side shortage.
It can be hard to distinguish which code layer returns the -ENOMEM.
Create mmap trace file and add trace point of vm_unmapped_area.
i.e.)

to be mapped into virtual area vma. And it is the field vma->vm_start

The existing gup code does not react to the fatal signals in many code
paths. For example, in one retry path of gup we're still using
down_read() rather than down_read_killable(). Also, when doing page
faults we don't pass in FAULT_FLAG_KILLABLE as well, which means that
within the faulting process we'll wait in non-killable way as well. These
were spotted by Linus during the code review of some other patches.
Let's allow the gup code to react to fatal signals to improve the
responsiveness of threads when during gup and being killed.

This is the gup counterpart of the change that allows the VM_FAULT_RETRY

the fatal signal here before retry because the GUP can be interrupted by
that, otherwise we can loop forever.

The idea comes from a discussion between Linus and Andrea [1].
Before this patch we only allow a page fault to retry once. We achieved
this by clearing the FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY flag when doing
handle_mm_fault() the second time. This was majorly used to avoid
unexpected starvation of the system by looping over forever to handle the
page fault on a single page. However that should hardly happen, and after
all for each code path to return a VM_FAULT_RETRY we'll first wait for a
condition (during which time we should possibly yield the cpu) to happen
before VM_FAULT_RETRY is really returned.
This patch removes the restriction by keeping the FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY
flag when we receive VM_FAULT_RETRY. It means that the page fault handler
now can retry the page fault for multiple times if necessary without the
need to generate another page fault event. Meanwhile we still keep the
FAULT_FLAG_TRIED flag so page fault handler can still identify whether a
page fault is the first attempt or not.
Then we'll have these combinations of fault flags (only considering
ALLOW_RETRY flag and TRIED flag):
- ALLOW_RETRY and !TRIED: this means the page fault allows to
retry, and this is the first try
- ALLOW_RETRY and TRIED: this means the page fault allows to
retry, and this is not the first try
- !ALLOW_RETRY and !TRIED: this means the page fault does not allow
to retry at all
- !ALLOW_RETRY and TRIED: this is forbidden and should never be used
In existing code we have multiple places that has taken special care of
the first condition above by checking against (fault_flags &
FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY). This patch introduces a simple helper to detect
the first retry of a page fault by checking against both (fault_flags &
FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY) and !(fault_flag & FAULT_FLAG_TRIED) because now
even the 2nd try will have the ALLOW_RETRY set, then use that helper in
all existing special paths. One example is in __lock_page_or_retry(), now
we'll drop the mmap_sem only in the first attempt of page fault and we'll
keep it in follow up retries, so old locking behavior will be retained.
This will be a nice enhancement for current code [2] at the same time a
supporting material for the future userfaultfd-writeprotect work, since in
that work there will always be an explicit userfault writeprotect retry
for protected pages, and if that cannot resolve the page fault (e.g., when
userfaultfd-writeprotect is used in conjunction with swapped pages) then
we'll possibly need a 3rd retry of the page fault. It might also benefit
other potential users who will have similar requirement like userfault
write-protection.
GUP code is not touched yet and will be covered in follow up patch.

Patch series "mm: Page fault enhancements", v6.
This series contains cleanups and enhancements to current page fault
logic. The whole idea comes from the discussion between Andrea and Linus
on the bug reported by syzbot here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/2/833
Basically it does two things:
(a) Allows the page fault logic to be more interactive on not only
SIGKILL, but also the rest of userspace signals, and,
(b) Allows the page fault retry (VM_FAULT_RETRY) to happen for more
than once.
For (a): with the changes we should be able to react faster when page
faults are working in parallel with userspace signals like SIGSTOP and
SIGCONT (and more), and with that we can remove the buggy part in
userfaultfd and benefit the whole page fault mechanism on faster signal
processing to reach the userspace.
For (b), we should be able to allow the page fault handler to loop for
even more than twice. Some context: for now since we have
FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY we can allow to retry the page fault once with the
same interrupt context, however never more than twice. This can be not
only a potential cleanup to remove this assumption since AFAIU the code
itself doesn't really have this twice-only limitation (though that should
be a protective approach in the past), at the same time it'll greatly
simplify future works like userfaultfd write-protect where it's possible
to retry for more than twice (please have a look at [1] below for a
possible user that might require the page fault to be handled for a third
time; if we can remove the retry limitation we can simply drop that patch
and those complexity).
This patch (of 16):
There's plenty of places around __get_user_pages() that has a parameter
"nonblocking" which does not really mean that "it won't block" (because it
can really block) but instead it shows whether the mmap_sem is released by
up_read() during the page fault handling mostly when VM_FAULT_RETRY is
returned.
We have the correct naming in e.g. get_user_pages_locked() or
get_user_pages_remote() as "locked", however there're still many places
that are using the "nonblocking" as name.
Renaming the places to "locked" where proper to better suite the
functionality of the variable. While at it, fixing up some of the
comments accordingly.

If a task is getting moved out of the OOMing cgroup, it might result in
unexpected OOM killings if memory.oom.group is used anywhere in the cgroup
tree.
Imagine the following example:
A (oom.group = 1)
/ \
(OOM) B C
Let's say B's memory.max is exceeded and it's OOMing. The OOM killer
selects a task in B as a victim, but someone asynchronously moves the task
into C. mem_cgroup_get_oom_group() will iterate over all ancestors of C
up to the root cgroup. In theory it had to stop at the oom_domain level -
the memory cgroup which is OOMing. But because B is not an ancestor of C,
it's not happening. Instead it chooses A (because it's oom.group is set),
and kills all tasks in A. This behavior is wrong because the OOM happened
in B, so there is no reason to kill anything outside.
Fix this by checking it the memory cgroup to which the task belongs is a
descendant of the oom_domain. If not, memory.oom.group should be ignored,
and the OOM killer should kill only the victim task.

Currently multiple locations in memcg code, css_tryget_online() is being
used. However it doesn't matter whether the cgroup is online for the
callers. Online used to matter when we had reparenting on offlining and
we needed a way to prevent new ones from showing up.
The failure case for couple of these css_tryget_online usage is to
fallback to root_mem_cgroup which kind of make bypassing the memcg
limits possible for some workloads. For example creating an inotify
group in a subcontainer and then deleting that container after moving the
process to a different container will make all the event objects
allocated for that group to the root_mem_cgroup. So, using
css_tryget_online() is dangerous for such cases.
Two locations still use the online version. The swapin of offlined
memcg's pages and the memcg kmem cache creation. The kmem cache indeed
needs the online version as the kernel does the reparenting of memcg
kmem caches. For the swapin case, it has been left for later as the
fallback is not really that concerning.
With swap accounting enabled, if the memcg of the swapped out page is
not online then the memcg extracted from the given 'mm' will be charged
and if 'mm' is NULL then root memcg will be charged. However I could
not find a code path where the given 'mm' will be NULL for swap-in
case.

Right now, the effective protection of any given cgroup is capped by its
own explicit memory.low setting, regardless of what the parent says. The
reasons for this are mostly historical and ease of implementation: to make
delegation of memory.low safe, effective protection is the min() of all
memory.low up the tree.
Unfortunately, this limitation makes it impossible to protect an entire
subtree from another without forcing the user to make explicit protection
allocations all the way to the leaf cgroups - something that is highly
undesirable in real life scenarios.
Consider memory in a data center host. At the cgroup top level, we have a
distinction between system management software and the actual workload the
system is executing. Both branches are further subdivided into individual
services, job components etc.
We want to protect the workload as a whole from the system management
software, but that doesn't mean we want to protect and prioritize
individual workload wrt each other. Their memory demand can vary over
time, and we'd want the VM to simply cache the hottest data within the
workload subtree. Yet, the current memory.low limitations force us to
allocate a fixed amount of protection to each workload component in order
to get protection from system management software in general. This
results in very inefficient resource distribution.
Another concern with mandating downward allocation is that, as the
complexity of the cgroup tree grows, it gets harder for the lower levels
to be informed about decisions made at the host-level. Consider a
container inside a namespace that in turn creates its own nested tree of
cgroups to run multiple workloads. It'd be extremely difficult to
configure memory.low parameters in those leaf cgroups that on one hand
balance pressure among siblings as the container desires, while also
reflecting the host-level protection from e.g. rpm upgrades, that lie
beyond one or more delegation and namespacing points in the tree.
It's highly unusual from a cgroup interface POV that nested levels have to
be aware of and reflect decisions made at higher levels for them to be
effective.
To enable such use cases and scale configurability for complex trees, this
patch implements a resource inheritance model for memory that is similar
to how the CPU and the IO controller implement work-conserving resource
allocations: a share of a resource allocated to a subree always applies to
the entire subtree recursively, while allowing, but not mandating,
children to further specify distribution rules.
That means that if protection is explicitly allocated among siblings,
those configured shares are being followed during page reclaim just like
they are now. However, if the memory.low set at a higher level is not
fully claimed by the children in that subtree, the "floating" remainder is
applied to each cgroup in the tree in proportion to its size. Since
reclaim pressure is applied in proportion to size as well, each child in
that tree gets the same boost, and the effect is neutral among siblings -
with respect to each other, they behave as if no memory control was
enabled at all, and the VM simply balances the memory demands optimally
within the subtree. But collectively those cgroups enjoy a boost over the
cgroups in neighboring trees.
E.g. a leaf cgroup with a memory.low setting of 0 no longer means that
it's not getting a share of the hierarchically assigned resource, just
that it doesn't claim a fixed amount of it to protect from its siblings.
This allows us to recursively protect one subtree (workload) from another
(system management), while letting subgroups compete freely among each
other - without having to assign fixed shares to each leaf, and without
nested groups having to echo higher-level settings.
The floating protection composes naturally with fixed protection.
Consider the following example tree:
A A: low = 2G
/ \ A1: low = 1G
A1 A2 A2: low = 0G
As outside pressure is applied to this tree, A1 will enjoy a fixed
protection from A2 of 1G, but the remaining, unclaimed 1G from A is split
evenly among A1 and A2, coming out to 1.5G and 0.5G.
There is a slight risk of regressing theoretical setups where the
top-level cgroups don't know about the true budgeting and set bogusly high
"bypass" values that are meaningfully allocated down the tree. Such
setups would rely on unclaimed protection to be discarded, and
distributing it would change the intended behavior. Be safe and hide the
new behavior behind a mount option, 'memory_recursiveprot'.

The effective protection of any given cgroup is a somewhat complicated
construct that depends on the ancestor's configuration, siblings'
configurations, as well as current memory utilization in all these groups.
It's done this way to satisfy hierarchical delegation requirements while
also making the configuration semantics flexible and expressive in complex
real life scenarios.
Unfortunately, all the rules and requirements are sparsely documented, and
the code is a little too clever in merging different scenarios into a
single min() expression. This makes it hard to reason about the
implementation and avoid breaking semantics when making changes to it.
This patch documents each semantic rule individually and splits out the
handling of the overcommit case from the regular case.
Michal Koutný also points out that the points of equilibrium as described
in the existing example scenarios aren't actually accurate. Delete these
examples for now to avoid confusion.

Patch series "mm: memcontrol: recursive memory.low protection", v3.
The current memory.low (and memory.min) semantics require protection to be
assigned to a cgroup in an untinterrupted chain from the top-level cgroup
all the way to the leaf.
In practice, we want to protect entire cgroup subtrees from each other
(system management software vs. workload), but we would like the VM to
balance memory optimally *within* each subtree, without having to make
explicit weight allocations among individual components. The current
semantics make that impossible.
They also introduce unmanageable complexity into more advanced resource
trees. For example:
host root
`- system.slice
`- rpm upgrades
`- logging
`- workload.slice
`- a container
`- system.slice
`- workload.slice
`- job A
`- component 1
`- component 2
`- job B
At a host-level perspective, we would like to protect the outer
workload.slice subtree as a whole from rpm upgrades, logging etc. But for
that to be effective, right now we'd have to propagate it down through the
container, the inner workload.slice, into the job cgroup and ultimately
the component cgroups where memory is actually, physically allocated.
This may cross several tree delegation points and namespace boundaries,
which make such a setup near impossible.
CPU and IO on the other hand are already distributed recursively. The
user would simply configure allowances at the host level, and they would
apply to the entire subtree without any downward propagation.
To enable the above-mentioned usecases and bring memory in line with other
resource controllers, this patch series extends memory.low/min such that
settings apply recursively to the entire subtree. Users can still assign
explicit shares in subgroups, but if they don't, any ancestral protection
will be distributed such that children compete freely amongst each other -
as if no memory control were enabled inside the subtree - but enjoy
protection from neighboring trees.
In the above example, the user would then be able to configure shares of
CPU, IO and memory at the host level to comprehensively protect and
isolate the workload.slice as a whole from system.slice activity.
Patch #1 fixes an existing bug that can give a cgroup tree more protection
than it should receive as per ancestor configuration.
Patch #2 simplifies and documents the existing code to make it easier to
reason about the changes in the next patch.
Patch #3 finally implements recursive memory protection semantics.
Because of a risk of regressing legacy setups, the new semantics are
hidden behind a cgroup2 mount option, 'memory_recursiveprot'.
More details in patch #3.
This patch (of 3):
When memory.low is overcommitted - i.e. the children claim more
protection than their shared ancestor grants them - the allowance is
distributed in proportion to how much each sibling uses their own declared
protection:
low_usage = min(memory.low, memory.current)
elow = parent_elow * (low_usage / siblings_low_usage)
However, siblings_low_usage is not the sum of all low_usages. It sums
up the usages of *only those cgroups that are within their memory.low*
That means that low_usage can be *bigger* than siblings_low_usage, and
consequently the total protection afforded to the children can be
bigger than what the ancestor grants the subtree.
Consider three groups where two are in excess of their protection:
A/memory.low = 10G
A/A1/memory.low = 10G, memory.current = 20G
A/A2/memory.low = 10G, memory.current = 20G
A/A3/memory.low = 10G, memory.current = 8G
siblings_low_usage = 8G (only A3 contributes)
A1/elow = parent_elow(10G) * low_usage(10G) / siblings_low_usage(8G) = 12.5G -> 10G
A2/elow = parent_elow(10G) * low_usage(10G) / siblings_low_usage(8G) = 12.5G -> 10G
A3/elow = parent_elow(10G) * low_usage(8G) / siblings_low_usage(8G) = 10.0G
(the 12.5G are capped to the explicit memory.low setting of 10G)
With that, the sum of all awarded protection below A is 30G, when A
only grants 10G for the entire subtree.
What does this mean in practice? A1 and A2 would still be in excess of
their 10G allowance and would be reclaimed, whereas A3 would not. As
they eventually drop below their protection setting, they would be
counted in siblings_low_usage again and the error would right itself.
When reclaim was applied in a binary fashion (cgroup is reclaimed when
it's above its protection, otherwise it's skipped) this would actually
work out just fine. However, since 1bc63fb127 ("mm, memcg: make scan
aggression always exclude protection"), reclaim pressure is scaled to
how much a cgroup is above its protection. As a result this
calculation error unduly skews pressure away from A1 and A2 toward the
rest of the system.
But why did we do it like this in the first place?
The reasoning behind exempting groups in excess from
siblings_low_usage was to go after them first during reclaim in an
overcommitted subtree:
A/memory.low = 2G, memory.current = 4G
A/A1/memory.low = 3G, memory.current = 2G
A/A2/memory.low = 1G, memory.current = 2G
siblings_low_usage = 2G (only A1 contributes)
A1/elow = parent_elow(2G) * low_usage(2G) / siblings_low_usage(2G) = 2G
A2/elow = parent_elow(2G) * low_usage(1G) / siblings_low_usage(2G) = 1G
While the children combined are overcomitting A and are technically
both at fault, A2 is actively declaring unprotected memory and we
would like to reclaim that first.
However, while this sounds like a noble goal on the face of it, it
doesn't make much difference in actual memory distribution: Because A
is overcommitted, reclaim will not stop once A2 gets pushed back to
within its allowance; we'll have to reclaim A1 either way. The end
result is still that protection is distributed proportionally, with A1
getting 3/4 (1.5G) and A2 getting 1/4 (0.5G) of A's allowance.
[ If A weren't overcommitted, it wouldn't make a difference since each
cgroup would just get the protection it declares:
A/memory.low = 2G, memory.current = 3G
A/A1/memory.low = 1G, memory.current = 1G
A/A2/memory.low = 1G, memory.current = 2G
With the current calculation:
siblings_low_usage = 1G (only A1 contributes)
A1/elow = parent_elow(2G) * low_usage(1G) / siblings_low_usage(1G) = 2G -> 1G
A2/elow = parent_elow(2G) * low_usage(1G) / siblings_low_usage(1G) = 2G -> 1G
Including excess groups in siblings_low_usage:
siblings_low_usage = 2G
A1/elow = parent_elow(2G) * low_usage(1G) / siblings_low_usage(2G) = 1G -> 1G
A2/elow = parent_elow(2G) * low_usage(1G) / siblings_low_usage(2G) = 1G -> 1G ]
Simplify the calculation and fix the proportional reclaim bug by
including excess cgroups in siblings_low_usage.
After this patch, the effective memory.low distribution from the
example above would be as follows:
A/memory.low = 10G
A/A1/memory.low = 10G, memory.current = 20G
A/A2/memory.low = 10G, memory.current = 20G
A/A3/memory.low = 10G, memory.current = 8G
siblings_low_usage = 28G
A1/elow = parent_elow(10G) * low_usage(10G) / siblings_low_usage(28G) = 3.5G
A2/elow = parent_elow(10G) * low_usage(10G) / siblings_low_usage(28G) = 3.5G
A3/elow = parent_elow(10G) * low_usage(8G) / siblings_low_usage(28G) = 2.8G

These functions are charging the given number of kernel pages to the given
memory cgroup. The number doesn't have to be a power of two. Let's make
them to take the unsigned int nr_pages as an argument instead of the page
order.
It makes them look consistent with the corresponding uncharge functions
and functions like: mem_cgroup_charge_skmem(memcg, nr_pages).
