Currently, hugepaged_mutex is used really complexly and hard to
understand, actually, it is just used to serialize start_khugepaged and
khugepaged for these reasons:
- khugepaged_thread is shared between them
- the thp disable path (echo never > transparent_hugepage/enabled) is
nonblocking, so we need to protect khugepaged_thread to get a stable
running state
These can be avoided by:
- use the lock to serialize the thread creation and cancel
- thp disable path can not finised until the thread exits
Then khugepaged_thread is fully controlled by start_khugepaged, khugepaged
will be happy without the lock

The core page allocator ensures that page flags are zeroed when freeing
pages via free_pages_check. A number of architectures (ARM, PPC, MIPS)
rely on this property to treat new pages as dirty with respect to the data
cache and perform the appropriate flushing before mapping the pages into
userspace.
This can lead to cache synchronisation problems when using hugepages,
since the allocator keeps its own pool of pages above the usual page
allocator and does not reset the page flags when freeing a page into the
pool.
This patch adds a new architecture hook, arch_clear_hugepage_flags, so
that architectures which rely on the page flags being in a particular
state for fresh allocations can adjust the flags accordingly when a page
is freed into the pool.

With an RCU based mmu_notifier implementation, any callout to

mmu_notifier_invalidate_page() would not be allowed to call schedule()
as that could potentially allow a modification to the mmu_notifier
structure while it is currently being used.
Since srcu allocs 4 machine words per instance per cpu, we may end up
with memory exhaustion if we use srcu per mm. So all mms share a global
srcu. Note that during large mmu_notifier activity exit & unregister

There is a bug in set_pte_at_notify() which always sets the pte to the
new page before releasing the old page in the secondary MMU. At this
time, the process will access on the new page, but the secondary MMU
still access on the old page, the memory is inconsistent between them
The below scenario shows the bug more clearly:
at the beginning: *p = 0, and p is write-protected by KSM or shared with
parent process
CPU 0 CPU 1
write 1 to p to trigger COW,
set_pte_at_notify will be called:
*pte = new_page + W; /* The W bit of pte is set */
*p = 1; /* pte is valid, so no #PF */
return back to secondary MMU, then
the secondary MMU read p, but get:
*p == 0;
/*
* !!!!!!
* the host has already set p to 1, but the secondary
* MMU still get the old value 0
*/
call mmu_notifier_change_pte to release
old page in secondary MMU
We can fix it by release old page first, then set the pte to the new
page.
Note, the new page will be firstly used in secondary MMU before it is
mapped into the page table of the process, but this is safe because it
is protected by the page table lock, there is no race to change the pte

Commit cc9a6c8776 ("cpuset: mm: reduce large amounts of memory barrier
related damage v3") introduced a potential memory corruption.
shmem_alloc_page() uses a pseudo vma and it has one significant unique
combination, vma->vm_ops=NULL and vma->policy->flags & MPOL_F_SHARED.
get_vma_policy() does NOT increase a policy ref when vma->vm_ops=NULL
and mpol_cond_put() DOES decrease a policy ref when a policy has
MPOL_F_SHARED. Therefore, when a cpuset update race occurs,
alloc_pages_vma() falls in 'goto retry_cpuset' path, decrements the
reference count and frees the policy prematurely.

shared_policy_replace() use of sp_alloc() is unsafe. 1) sp_node cannot
be dereferenced if sp->lock is not held and 2) another thread can modify
sp_node between spin_unlock for allocating a new sp node and next
spin_lock. The bug was introduced before 2.6.12-rc2.
Kosaki's original patch for this problem was to allocate an sp node and
policy within shared_policy_replace and initialise it when the lock is
reacquired. I was not keen on this approach because it partially
duplicates sp_alloc(). As the paths were sp->lock is taken are not that
performance critical this patch converts sp->lock to sp->mutex so it can
sleep when calling sp_alloc().

The problem is that the structure is being prematurely freed due to a
reference count imbalance. In the following case mbind(addr, len) should
replace the memory policies of both vma1 and vma2 and thus they will
become to share the same mempolicy and the new mempolicy will have the
MPOL_F_SHARED flag.
+-------------------+-------------------+
| vma1 | vma2(shmem) |
+-------------------+-------------------+
| |
addr addr+len
alloc_pages_vma() uses get_vma_policy() and mpol_cond_put() pair for
maintaining the mempolicy reference count. The current rule is that
get_vma_policy() only increments refcount for shmem VMA and
mpol_conf_put() only decrements refcount if the policy has
MPOL_F_SHARED.
In above case, vma1 is not shmem vma and vma->policy has MPOL_F_SHARED!
The reference count will be decreased even though was not increased
whenever alloc_page_vma() is called. This has been broken since commit
[52cd3b07: mempolicy: rework mempolicy Reference Counting] in 2008.
There is another serious bug with the sharing of memory policies.
Currently, mempolicy rebind logic (it is called from cpuset rebinding)
ignores a refcount of mempolicy and override it forcibly. Thus, any
mempolicy sharing may cause mempolicy corruption. The bug was
introduced by commit [68860ec1: cpusets: automatic numa mempolicy
rebinding].
Ideally, the shared policy handling would be rewritten to either
properly handle COW of the policy structures or at least reference count
MPOL_F_SHARED based exclusively on information within the policy.
However, this patch takes the easier approach of disabling any policy
sharing between VMAs. Each new range allocated with sp_alloc will
allocate a new policy, set the reference count to 1 and drop the
reference count of the old policy. This increases the memory footprint
but is not expected to be a major problem as mbind() is unlikely to be
used for fine-grained ranges. It is also inefficient because it means
we allocate a new policy even in cases where mbind_range() could use the
new_policy passed to it. However, it is more straight-forward and the
change should be invisible to the user.

While compaction is migrating pages to free up large contiguous blocks
for allocation it races with other allocation requests that may steal

If allocation fails after compaction then compaction may be deferred for
a number of allocation attempts. If there are subsequent failures,
compact_defer_shift is increased to defer for longer periods. This
patch uses that information to scale the number of pages reclaimed with
compact_defer_shift until allocations succeed again. The rationale is
that reclaiming the normal number of pages still allowed compaction to
fail and its success depends on the number of pages. If it's failing,
reclaim more pages until it succeeds again.
Note that this is not implying that VM reclaim is not reclaiming enough
pages or that its logic is broken. try_to_free_pages() always asks for
SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pages to be reclaimed regardless of order and that is
what it does. Direct reclaim stops normally with this check.
if (sc->nr_reclaimed >= sc->nr_to_reclaim)
goto out;
should_continue_reclaim delays when that check is made until a minimum
number of pages for reclaim/compaction are reclaimed. It is possible
that this patch could instead set nr_to_reclaim in try_to_free_pages()
and drive it from there but that's behaves differently and not
necessarily for the better. If driven from do_try_to_free_pages(), it
is also possible that priorities will rise.
When they reach DEF_PRIORITY-2, it will also start stalling and setting
pages for immediate reclaim which is more disruptive than not desirable
in this case. That is a more wide-reaching change that could cause
another regression related to THP requests causing interactive jitter.

Allocation success rates have been far lower since 3.4 due to commit
fe2c2a1066 ("vmscan: reclaim at order 0 when compaction is enabled").
This commit was introduced for good reasons and it was known in advance
that the success rates would suffer but it was justified on the grounds
that the high allocation success rates were achieved by aggressive
reclaim. Success rates are expected to suffer even more in 3.6 due to
commit 7db8889ab0 ("mm: have order > 0 compaction start off where it
left") which testing has shown to severely reduce allocation success
rates under load - to 0% in one case.
This series aims to improve the allocation success rates without
regressing the benefits of commit fe2c2a1066. The series is based on
latest mmotm and takes into account the __GFP_NO_KSWAPD flag is going
away.
Patch 1 updates a stale comment seeing as I was in the general area.
Patch 2 updates reclaim/compaction to reclaim pages scaled on the number
of recent failures.
Patch 3 captures suitable high-order pages freed by compaction to reduce
races with parallel allocation requests.
Patch 4 fixes the upstream commit [7db8889a: mm: have order > 0 compaction
start off where it left] to enable compaction again
Patch 5 identifies when compacion is taking too long due to contention
and aborts.

From
http://www.csn.ul.ie/~mel/postings/mmtests-20120424/global-dhp__stress-highalloc-performance-ext3/hydra/comparison.html
I know that the allocation success rates in 3.3.6 was 78% in comparison
to 36% in in the current akpm tree. With the full series applied, the
success rates are up to around 51% with some variability in the results.
This is not as high a success rate but it does not reclaim excessively
which is a key point.
MMTests Statistics: vmstat
Page Ins 3050912 3078892
Page Outs 8033528 8039096
Swap Ins 0 0
Swap Outs 0 0
Note that swap in/out rates remain at 0. In 3.3.6 with 78% success rates
there were 71881 pages swapped out.
Direct pages scanned 70942 122976
Kswapd pages scanned 1366300 1520122
Kswapd pages reclaimed 1366214 1484629
Direct pages reclaimed 70936 105716
Kswapd efficiency 99% 97%
Kswapd velocity 1072.550 1182.615
Direct efficiency 99% 85%
Direct velocity 55.690 95.672
The kswapd velocity changes very little as expected. kswapd velocity is
around the 1000 pages/sec mark where as in kernel 3.3.6 with the high
allocation success rates it was 8140 pages/second. Direct velocity is
higher as a result of patch 2 of the series but this is expected and is
acceptable. The direct reclaim and kswapd velocities change very little.
If these get accepted for merging then there is a difficulty in how they
should be handled. 7db8889a ("mm: have order > 0 compaction start off
where it left") is broken but it is already in 3.6-rc1 and needs to be
fixed. However, if just patch 4 from this series is applied then Jim
Schutt's workload is known to break again as his workload also requires
patch 5. While it would be preferred to have all these patches in 3.6 to
improve compaction in general, it would at least be acceptable if just
patches 4 and 5 were merged to 3.6 to fix a known problem without breaking
compaction completely. On the face of it, that would force
__GFP_NO_KSWAPD patches to be merged at the same time but I can do a
version of this series with __GFP_NO_KSWAPD change reverted and then
rebase it on top of this series. That might be best overall because I
note that the __GFP_NO_KSWAPD patch should have removed
deferred_compaction from page_alloc.c but it didn't but fixing that causes
collisions with this series.
This patch:
The comment about order applied when the check was order >
PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER which has not been the case since c5a73c3d ("thp:
use compaction for all allocation orders"). Fixing the comment while I'm

People get confused by find_vma_prepare(), because it doesn't care about
what it returns in its output args, when its callers won't be interested.
Clarify by passing in end-of-range address too, and returning failure if
any existing vma overlaps the new range: instead of returning an ambiguous
vma which most callers then must check. find_vma_links() is a clearer
name.
This does revert 2.6.27's dfe195fb79 ("mm: fix uninitialized variables
for find_vma_prepare callers"), but it looks like gcc 4.3.0 was one of
those releases too eager to shout about uninitialized variables: only
copy_vma() warns with 4.5.1 and 4.7.1, which a BUG on error silences.

When writing a new file with 2048 bytes buffer, such as write(fd, buffer,
2048), it will call generic_perform_write() twice for every page:
write_begin
mark_page_accessed(page)
write_end
write_begin
mark_page_accessed(page)
write_end
Pages 1-13 will be added to lru-pvecs in write_begin() and will *NOT* be
added to active_list even they have be accessed twice because they are not
PageLRU(page). But when page 14th comes, all pages in lru-pvecs will be
moved to inactive_list (by __lru_cache_add() ) in first write_begin(), now
page 14th *is* PageLRU(page). And after second write_end() only page 14th
will be in active_list.
In Hadoop environment, we do comes to this situation: after writing a
file, we find out that only 14th, 28th, 42th... page are in active_list
and others in inactive_list. Now kswapd works, shrinks the inactive_list,
the file only have 14th, 28th...pages in memory, the readahead request
size will be broken to only 52k (13*4k), system's performance falls
dramatically.
This problem can also replay by below steps (the machine has 8G memory):
1. dd if=/dev/zero of=/test/file.out bs=1024 count=1048576
2. cat another 7.5G file to /dev/null
3. vmtouch -m 1G -v /test/file.out, it will show:
/test/file.out
[oooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO] 187847/262144
the 'o' means same pages are in memory but same are not.
The solution for this problem is simple: the 14th page should be added to
lru_add_pvecs before mark_page_accessed() just as other pages.

This patch removes reserved_vm counter from mm_struct. Seems like nobody

reduces total_vm showed in proc.
Thus VM_RESERVED can be replaced with VM_IO or pair VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.

remap_vmalloc_range() set VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.

Currently the kernel sets mm->exe_file during sys_execve() and then tracks
number of vmas with VM_EXECUTABLE flag in mm->num_exe_file_vmas, as soon
as this counter drops to zero kernel resets mm->exe_file to NULL. Plus it
resets mm->exe_file at last mmput() when mm->mm_users drops to zero.
VMA with VM_EXECUTABLE flag appears after mapping file with flag
MAP_EXECUTABLE, such vmas can appears only at sys_execve() or after vma
splitting, because sys_mmap ignores this flag. Usually binfmt module sets
mm->exe_file and mmaps executable vmas with this file, they hold
mm->exe_file while task is running.

exe_file's vma accounting is hooked into every file mmap/unmmap and vma
split/merge just to fix some hypothetical pinning fs from umounting by mm,
which already unmapped all its executable files, but still alive.
Seems like currently nobody depends on this behaviour. We can try to
remove this logic and keep mm->exe_file until final mmput().
mm->exe_file is still protected with mm->mmap_sem, because we want to
change it via new sys_prctl(PR_SET_MM_EXE_FILE). Also via this syscall
task can change its mm->exe_file and unpin mountpoint explicitly.

Move actual pte filling for non-linear file mappings into the new special
vma operation: ->remap_pages().
Filesystems must implement this method to get non-linear mapping support,
if it uses filemap_fault() then generic_file_remap_pages() can be used.
Now device drivers can implement this method and obtain nonlinear vma support.

Merge VM_INSERTPAGE into VM_MIXEDMAP. VM_MIXEDMAP VMA can mix pure-pfn
ptes, special ptes and normal ptes.
Now copy_page_range() always copies VM_MIXEDMAP VMA on fork like
VM_PFNMAP. If driver populates whole VMA at mmap() it probably not
expects page-faults.
This patch removes special check from vma_wants_writenotify() which
disables pages write tracking for VMA populated via vm_instert_page().
BDI below mapped file should not use dirty-accounting, moreover
do_wp_page() can handle this.
vm_insert_page() still marks vma after first usage. Usually it is called
from f_op->mmap() handler under mm->mmap_sem write-lock, so it able to
change vma->vm_flags. Caller must set VM_MIXEDMAP at mmap time if it
wants to call this function from other places, for example from page-fault
handler.

("x86: PAT: store vm_pgoff for all linear_over_vma_region mappings - v3")
is_linear_pfn_mapping() checks can be removed from mm/huge_memory.c,

With PAT enabled, vm_insert_pfn() looks up the existing pfn memory
attribute and uses it. Expectation is that the driver reserves the
memory attributes for the pfn before calling vm_insert_pfn().
remap_pfn_range() (when called for the whole vma) will setup a new
attribute (based on the prot argument) for the specified pfn range.
This addresses the legacy usage which typically calls remap_pfn_range()
with a desired memory attribute. For ranges smaller than the vma size
(which is typically not the case), remap_pfn_range() will use the
existing memory attribute for the pfn range.
Expose two different API's for these different behaviors.
track_pfn_insert() for tracking the pfn attribute set by vm_insert_pfn()
and track_pfn_remap() for the remap_pfn_range().
This cleanup also prepares the ground for the track/untrack pfn vma
routines to take over the ownership of setting PAT specific vm_flag in
the 'vma'.

'pfn' argument for track_pfn_vma_new() can be used for reserving the
attribute for the pfn range. No need to depend on 'vm_pgoff'
Similarly, untrack_pfn_vma() can depend on the 'pfn' argument if it is
non-zero or can use follow_phys() to get the starting value of the pfn
range.
Also the non zero 'size' argument can be used instead of recomputing it
from vma.
This cleanup also prepares the ground for the track/untrack pfn vma

When transparent huge pages were introduced, memory compaction and swap
storms were an issue, and the kernel had to be careful to not make THP

Now that we have working compaction deferral, kswapd is smart enough to
invoke compaction and the quadratic behaviour around isolate_free_pages
has been fixed, it should be safe to remove __GFP_NO_KSWAPD.

The synchronization between CPU hotplug readers and writers is achieved
by means of refcounting, safeguarded by the cpu_hotplug.lock.
get_online_cpus() increments the refcount, whereas put_online_cpus()
decrements it. If we ever hit an imbalance between the two, we end up
compromising the guarantees of the hotplug synchronization i.e, for
example, an extra call to put_online_cpus() can end up allowing a
hotplug reader to execute concurrently with a hotplug writer.
So, add a WARN_ON() in put_online_cpus() to detect such cases where the
refcount can go negative, and also attempt to fix it up, so that we can
continue to run.

This contains pretty many small commits covering fairly large range of
files in sound/ directory. Partly because of additional API support
and partly because of constantly developed ASoC and ARM stuff.
Some highlights:
- Introduced the helper function and documentation for exposing the
channel map via control API, as discussed in Plumbers; most of PCI
drivers are covered, will follow more drivers later
- Most of drivers have been replaced with the new PM callbacks (if
the bus is supported)
- HD-audio controller got the support of runtime PM and the support of
D3 clock-stop. Also changing the power_save option in sysfs kicks
off immediately to enable / disable the power-save mode.
- Another significant code change in HD-audio is the rewrite of
firmware loading code. Other than that, most of changes in HD-audio
are continued cleanups and standardization for the generic auto
parser and bug fixes (HBR, device-specific fixups), in addition to
the support of channel-map API.
- Addition of ASoC bindings for the compressed API, used by the
mid-x86 drivers.
- Lots of cleanups and API refreshes for ASoC codec drivers and
DaVinci.
- Conversion of OMAP to dmaengine.
- New machine driver for Wolfson Microelectronics Bells.
- New CODEC driver for Wolfson Microelectronics WM0010.
- Enhancements to the ux500 and wm2000 drivers
- A new driver for DA9055 and the support for regulator bypass mode.

Merge tag 'sound-3.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound
Pull sound updates from Takashi Iwai:
"This contains pretty many small commits covering fairly large range of
files in sound/ directory. Partly because of additional API support
and partly because of constantly developed ASoC and ARM stuff.
Some highlights:
- Introduced the helper function and documentation for exposing the
channel map via control API, as discussed in Plumbers; most of PCI
drivers are covered, will follow more drivers later
- Most of drivers have been replaced with the new PM callbacks (if
the bus is supported)
- HD-audio controller got the support of runtime PM and the support
of D3 clock-stop. Also changing the power_save option in sysfs
kicks off immediately to enable / disable the power-save mode.
- Another significant code change in HD-audio is the rewrite of
firmware loading code. Other than that, most of changes in
HD-audio are continued cleanups and standardization for the generic
auto parser and bug fixes (HBR, device-specific fixups), in
addition to the support of channel-map API.
- Addition of ASoC bindings for the compressed API, used by the
mid-x86 drivers.
- Lots of cleanups and API refreshes for ASoC codec drivers and
DaVinci.
- Conversion of OMAP to dmaengine.
- New machine driver for Wolfson Microelectronics Bells.
- New CODEC driver for Wolfson Microelectronics WM0010.
- Enhancements to the ux500 and wm2000 drivers
- A new driver for DA9055 and the support for regulator bypass mode."
Fix up various arm soc header file reorg conflicts.

Change de_thread() to use KILLABLE rather than UNINTERRUPTIBLE while
waiting for other threads. The only complication is that we should
clear ->group_exit_task and ->notify_count before we return, and we
should do this under tasklist_lock. -EAGAIN is used to match the
initial signal_group_exit() check/return, it doesn't really matter.
This fixes the (unlikely) race with coredump. de_thread() checks
signal_group_exit() before it starts to kill the subthreads, but this
can't help if another CLONE_VM (but non CLONE_THREAD) task starts the
coredumping after de_thread() unlocks ->siglock. In this case the
killed sub-thread can block in exit_mm() waiting for coredump_finish(),
execing thread waits for that sub-thead, and the coredumping thread
waits for execing thread. Deadlock.

"There is an attempt to fix a bad interaction between syscall tracing

Al is working on an updated version.
But what we do have here are some significant bzero/memset
improvements for Niagara-4. An 8K page can be cleared in around 600
cycles, because we essentially have a store that behaves like
powerpc's dcbz that we can actually make real use of."

task_work_run() implementation had the side effect of enabling

The generic implementation of compat_sys_sendfile() has been introduced
by commit 8f9c0119. This patch removes the arm64 implementation in
favour of the generic one.
Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
Following commit 74838b7 (swiotlb: add the late swiotlb initialization
function with iotlb memory) the swiotlb_init_with_default_size() is a
static function. This patch changes the arm64 code to call
swiotlb_init() instead and use the default size of 64MB. It is assumed
that AArch64 platforms have enough RAM to afford the pre-allocated
swiotlb memory. It also removes the #ifdef around this call since
CONFIG_SWIOTLB is always enabled.

Weinberger from Linutronix. Fastmap is designed to address UBI's slow scanning
issues. Namely, it introduces a new on-flash data-structure called "fastmap",
which stores the information about logical<->physical eraseblocks mappings.
So now to get this information just read the fastmap, instead of doing full
scan. More information here can be found in Richard's announcement in LKML
(Subject: UBI: Fastmap request for inclusion (v19)):
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1364922/focus=1369109
One thing I want to explicitly say is that fastmap did not have large
enough linux-next exposure. It is partially my fault - I did not respond
quickly enough. I _really_ apologize for this. But it had good testing and
disabled by default, so I do not expect that we'll break anything.
Fastmap is declared as experimental so far, and it is off by default. We
did declare that the on-flash format may be changed. The reason for this is
that no one used it in real production so far, so there is a high risk that
something is missing. Besides, we do not have user-space tools supporting
fastmap so far.
Nevertheless, I suggest we merge this feature. Many people want UBI's scanning
bottleneck to be fixed and merging fastmap now should accelerate its production
use. The plan is to make it bullet-prove, somewhat clean-up, and make it the
default for UBI. I do not know how many kernel releases will it take.
Basically, I what I want to do for fastmap is something like Linus did for
btrfs few years ago.
