This is purely required because exit_aio() may block and exit_mmap() may
never start, if the oom_reap_task cannot start running on a mm with
mm_users == 0.
At the same time if the OOM reaper doesn't wait at all for the memory of
the current OOM candidate to be freed by exit_mmap->unmap_vmas, it would
generate a spurious OOM kill.
If it wasn't because of the exit_aio or similar blocking functions in
the last mmput, it would be enough to change the oom_reap_task() in the
case it finds mm_users == 0, to wait for a timeout or to wait for
__mmput to set MMF_OOM_SKIP itself, but it's not just exit_mmap the
problem here so the concurrency of exit_mmap and oom_reap_task is
apparently warranted.
It's a non standard runtime, exit_mmap() runs without mmap_sem, and
oom_reap_task runs with the mmap_sem for reading as usual (kind of
MADV_DONTNEED).
The race between the two is solved with a combination of
tsk_is_oom_victim() (serialized by task_lock) and MMF_OOM_SKIP
(serialized by a dummy down_write/up_write cycle on the same lines of
the ksm_exit method).
If the oom_reap_task() may be running concurrently during exit_mmap,
exit_mmap will wait it to finish in down_write (before taking down mm
structures that would make the oom_reap_task fail with use after free).
If exit_mmap comes first, oom_reap_task() will skip the mm if
MMF_OOM_SKIP is already set and in turn all memory is already freed and
furthermore the mm data structures may already have been taken down by
free_pgtables.

If the system has more than one swap device and swap device has the node
information, we can make use of this information to decide which swap
device to use in get_swap_pages() to get better performance.
The current code uses a priority based list, swap_avail_list, to decide
which swap device to use and if multiple swap devices share the same
priority, they are used round robin. This patch changes the previous
single global swap_avail_list into a per-numa-node list, i.e. for each
numa node, it sees its own priority based list of available swap
devices. Swap device's priority can be promoted on its matching node's
swap_avail_list.
The current swap device's priority is set as: user can set a >=0 value,
or the system will pick one starting from -1 then downwards. The
priority value in the swap_avail_list is the negated value of the swap
device's due to plist being sorted from low to high. The new policy
doesn't change the semantics for priority >=0 cases, the previous
starting from -1 then downwards now becomes starting from -2 then
downwards and -1 is reserved as the promoted value.
Take 4-node EX machine as an example, suppose 4 swap devices are
available, each sit on a different node:
swapA on node 0
swapB on node 1
swapC on node 2
swapD on node 3
After they are all swapped on in the sequence of ABCD.
Current behaviour:
their priorities will be:
swapA: -1
swapB: -2
swapC: -3
swapD: -4
And their position in the global swap_avail_list will be:
swapA -> swapB -> swapC -> swapD
prio:1 prio:2 prio:3 prio:4
New behaviour:
their priorities will be(note that -1 is skipped):
swapA: -2
swapB: -3
swapC: -4
swapD: -5
And their positions in the 4 swap_avail_lists[nid] will be:
swap_avail_lists[0]: /* node 0's available swap device list */
swapA -> swapB -> swapC -> swapD
prio:1 prio:3 prio:4 prio:5
swap_avali_lists[1]: /* node 1's available swap device list */
swapB -> swapA -> swapC -> swapD
prio:1 prio:2 prio:4 prio:5
swap_avail_lists[2]: /* node 2's available swap device list */
swapC -> swapA -> swapB -> swapD
prio:1 prio:2 prio:3 prio:5
swap_avail_lists[3]: /* node 3's available swap device list */
swapD -> swapA -> swapB -> swapC
prio:1 prio:2 prio:3 prio:4
To see the effect of the patch, a test that starts N process, each mmap
a region of anonymous memory and then continually write to it at random
position to trigger both swap in and out is used.
On a 2 node Skylake EP machine with 64GiB memory, two 170GB SSD drives
are used as swap devices with each attached to a different node, the
result is:
runtime=30m/processes=32/total test size=128G/each process mmap region=4G

Please note that the freezer still needs to check TIF_MEMDIE because we

For ages we have been relying on TIF_MEMDIE thread flag to mark OOM
victims and then, among other things, to give these threads full access
to memory reserves. There are few shortcomings of this implementation,
though.
First of all and the most serious one is that the full access to memory
reserves is quite dangerous because we leave no safety room for the
system to operate and potentially do last emergency steps to move on.
Secondly this flag is per task_struct while the OOM killer operates on
mm_struct granularity so all processes sharing the given mm are killed.
Giving the full access to all these task_structs could lead to a quick
memory reserves depletion. We have tried to reduce this risk by giving
TIF_MEMDIE only to the main thread and the currently allocating task but
that doesn't really solve this problem while it surely opens up a room
for corner cases - e.g. GFP_NO{FS,IO} requests might loop inside the
allocator without access to memory reserves because a particular thread
was not the group leader.
Now that we have the oom reaper and that all oom victims are reapable
after 1b51e65eab ("oom, oom_reaper: allow to reap mm shared by the
kthreads") we can be more conservative and grant only partial access to
memory reserves because there are reasonable chances of the parallel
memory freeing. We still want some access to reserves because we do not
want other consumers to eat up the victim's freed memory. oom victims
will still contend with __GFP_HIGH users but those shouldn't be so
aggressive to starve oom victims completely.
Introduce ALLOC_OOM flag and give all tsk_is_oom_victim tasks access to
the half of the reserves. This makes the access to reserves independent
on which task has passed through mark_oom_victim. Also drop any usage
of TIF_MEMDIE from the page allocator proper and replace it by
tsk_is_oom_victim as well which will make page_alloc.c completely
TIF_MEMDIE free finally.
CONFIG_MMU=n doesn't have oom reaper so let's stick to the original
ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS approach.
There is a demand to make the oom killer memcg aware which will imply
many tasks killed at once. This change will allow such a usecase
without worrying about complete memory reserves depletion.

It's been noted that z3fold doesn't scale well when it's run in a large
number of threads on many cores, which can be easily reproduced with fio
'randrw' test with --numjobs=32. E.g. the result for 1 cluster (4 cores)
is:
Run status group 0 (all jobs):
READ: io=244785MB, aggrb=496883KB/s, minb=15527KB/s, ...
WRITE: io=246735MB, aggrb=500841KB/s, minb=15651KB/s, ...
While for 8 cores (2 clusters) the result is:
Run status group 0 (all jobs):
READ: io=244785MB, aggrb=265942KB/s, minb=8310KB/s, ...
WRITE: io=246735MB, aggrb=268060KB/s, minb=8376KB/s, ...
The bottleneck here is the pool lock which many threads become waiting
upon. To reduce that spin lock contention, z3fold can operate only on
the lists local to the current CPU whenever possible. Due to the nature
of z3fold unbuddied list handling (it only takes the first entry off the
list on a hot path), if the z3fold pool is big enough and balanced well
enough, limiting search to only local unbuddied list doesn't lead to a
significant compression ratio degrade (2.57x vs 2.65x in our
measurements).
This patch also introduces two worker threads: one for async in-page
object layout optimization and one for releasing freed pages. This is
done to speed up z3fold_free() which is often on a hot path.
The fio results for 8-core case are now the following:
Run status group 0 (all jobs):
READ: io=244785MB, aggrb=1568.3MB/s, minb=50182KB/s, ...
WRITE: io=246735MB, aggrb=1580.8MB/s, minb=50582KB/s, ...
So we're in for almost 6x performance increase.

VMA based swap readahead will readahead the virtual pages that is
continuous in the virtual address space. While the original swap
readahead will readahead the swap slots that is continuous in the swap
device. Although VMA based swap readahead is more correct for the swap
slots to be readahead, it will trigger more small random readings, which
may cause the performance of HDD (hard disk) to degrade heavily, and may
finally exceed the benefit.
To avoid the issue, in this patch, if the HDD is used as swap, the VMA
based swap readahead will be disabled, and the original swap readahead
will be used instead.

The swap readahead is an important mechanism to reduce the swap in
latency. Although pure sequential memory access pattern isn't very
popular for anonymous memory, the space locality is still considered
valid.
In the original swap readahead implementation, the consecutive blocks in
swap device are readahead based on the global space locality estimation.
But the consecutive blocks in swap device just reflect the order of page
reclaiming, don't necessarily reflect the access pattern in virtual
memory. And the different tasks in the system may have different access
patterns, which makes the global space locality estimation incorrect.
In this patch, when page fault occurs, the virtual pages near the fault
address will be readahead instead of the swap slots near the fault swap
slot in swap device. This avoid to readahead the unrelated swap slots.
At the same time, the swap readahead is changed to work on per-VMA from
globally. So that the different access patterns of the different VMAs
could be distinguished, and the different readahead policy could be
applied accordingly. The original core readahead detection and scaling
algorithm is reused, because it is an effect algorithm to detect the
space locality.
The test and result is as follow,
Common test condition
=====================
Test Machine: Xeon E5 v3 (2 sockets, 72 threads, 32G RAM) Swap device:
NVMe disk
Micro-benchmark with combined access pattern
============================================
vm-scalability, sequential swap test case, 4 processes to eat 50G
virtual memory space, repeat the sequential memory writing until 300
seconds. The first round writing will trigger swap out, the following
rounds will trigger sequential swap in and out.
At the same time, run vm-scalability random swap test case in
background, 8 processes to eat 30G virtual memory space, repeat the
random memory write until 300 seconds. This will trigger random swap-in
in the background.
This is a combined workload with sequential and random memory accessing
at the same time. The result (for sequential workload) is as follow,
Base Optimized

ra_hit% 52.69% 99.98%
The original swap readahead algorithm is confused by the background
random access workload, so readahead hit rate is lower. The VMA-base
readahead algorithm works much better.

The score of base and optimized kernel hasn't visible changes. But the
elapsed time reduced and readahead hit rate improved, so the optimized
kernel runs better for startup and tear down stages. And the absolute
value of readahead hit rate is high, shows that the space locality is
still valid in some practical workloads.

In the original implementation, it is possible that the existing pages
in the swap cache (not newly readahead) could be marked as the readahead
pages. This will cause the statistics of swap readahead be wrong and
influence the swap readahead algorithm too.
This is fixed via marking a page as the readahead page only if it is
newly allocated and read from the disk.
When testing with linpack, after the fixing the swap readahead hit rate
increased from ~66% to ~86%.

detection and scaling algorithm is reused, because it is an effect

In addition to the swap readahead changes, some new sysfs interface is
added to show the efficiency of the readahead algorithm and some other
swap statistics.
This new implementation will incur more small random read, on SSD, the
improved correctness of estimation and readahead target should beat the
potential increased overhead, this is also illustrated in the test
results below. But on HDD, the overhead may beat the benefit, so the
original implementation will be used by default.
The test and result is as follow,

The statistics for total readahead pages and total readahead hits are
recorded and exported via the following sysfs interface.
/sys/kernel/mm/swap/ra_hits
/sys/kernel/mm/swap/ra_total
With them, the efficiency of the swap readahead could be measured, so
that the swap readahead algorithm and parameters could be tuned

The Oracle JVM team is developing a new garbage collection model. This
new model requires multiple mappings of the same anonymous memory. One
straight forward way to accomplish this is with memfd_create. They can
use the returned fd to create multiple mappings of the same memory.
The JVM today has an option to use (static hugetlb) huge pages. If this
option is specified, they would like to use the same garbage collection
model requiring multiple mappings to the same memory. Using hugetlbfs,
it is possible to explicitly mount a filesystem and specify file paths
in order to get an fd that can be used for multiple mappings. However,
this introduces additional system admin work and coordination.
Ideally they would like to get a hugetlbfs fd without requiring explicit
mounting of a filesystem. Today, mmap and shmget can make use of
hugetlbfs without explicitly mounting a filesystem. The patch adds this
functionality to memfd_create.
Add a new flag MFD_HUGETLB to memfd_create() that will specify the file
to be created resides in the hugetlbfs filesystem. This is the generic
hugetlbfs filesystem not associated with any specific mount point. As
with other system calls that request hugetlbfs backed pages, there is
the ability to encode huge page size in the flag arguments.
hugetlbfs does not support sealing operations, therefore specifying
MFD_ALLOW_SEALING with MFD_HUGETLB will result in EINVAL.
Of course, the memfd_man page would need updating if this type of
functionality moves forward.

devm_memremap_pages() records mapped ranges in pgmap_radix with an entry
per section's worth of memory (128MB). The key for each of those
entries is a section number.
This leads to false positives when devm_memremap_pages() is passed a
section-unaligned range as lookups in the misalignment fail to return
NULL. We can close this hole by using the pfn as the key for entries in
the tree. The number of entries required to describe a remapped range
is reduced by leveraging multi-order entries.
In practice this approach usually yields just one entry in the tree if
the size and starting address are of the same power-of-2 alignment.
Previously we always needed nr_entries = mapping_size / 128MB.

alloc_gigantic_page doesn't consider movability of the gigantic hugetlb
when scanning eligible ranges for the allocation. As 1GB hugetlb pages
are not movable currently this can break the movable zone assumption
that all allocations are migrateable and as such break memory hotplug.
Reorganize the code and use the standard zonelist allocations scheme
that we use for standard hugetbl pages. htlb_alloc_mask will ensure
that only migratable hugetlb pages will ever see a movable zone.

A __split_vma is not a worthy event to report, and it's definitely not a
unmap so it would be incorrect to report unmap for the whole region to
the userfaultfd manager if a __split_vma fails.
So only call userfaultfd_unmap_prep after the __vma_splitting is over
and do_munmap cannot fail anymore.
Also add unlikely because it's better to optimize for the vast majority
of apps that aren't using userfaultfd in a non cooperative way. Ideally
we should also find a way to eliminate the branch entirely if
CONFIG_USERFAULTFD=n, but it would complicate things so stick to
unlikely for now.

The first two patches are not strictly related to userfaultfd, they are
just minor refactoring to reduce amount of code duplication.
This patch (of 7):
Currently we update inode and shmem_inode_info before verifying that
used_blocks will not exceed max_blocks. In case it will, we undo the
update. Let's switch the order and move the verification of the blocks
count before the inode and shmem_inode_info update.

When swapping out THP (Transparent Huge Page), instead of swapping out
the THP as a whole, sometimes we have to fallback to split the THP into
normal pages before swapping, because no free swap clusters are
available, or cgroup limit is exceeded, etc. To count the number of the
fallback, a new VM event THP_SWPOUT_FALLBACK is added, and counted when
we fallback to split the THP.

In this patch, splitting transparent huge page (THP) during swapping out
is delayed from after adding the THP into the swap cache to after
swapping out finishes. After the patch, more operations for the
anonymous THP reclaiming, such as writing the THP to the swap device,
removing the THP from the swap cache could be batched. So that the
performance of anonymous THP swapping out could be improved.
This is the second step for the THP swap support. The plan is to delay
splitting the THP step by step and avoid splitting the THP finally.
With the patchset, the swap out throughput improves 42% (from about
5.81GB/s to about 8.25GB/s) in the vm-scalability swap-w-seq test case
with 16 processes. At the same time, the IPI (reflect TLB flushing)
reduced about 78.9%. The test is done on a Xeon E5 v3 system. The swap
device used is a RAM simulated PMEM (persistent memory) device. To test
the sequential swapping out, the test case creates 8 processes, which
sequentially allocate and write to the anonymous pages until the RAM and
part of the swap device is used up.

After adding swapping out support for THP (Transparent Huge Page), it is
possible that a THP in swap cache (partly swapped out) need to be split.
To split such a THP, the swap cluster backing the THP need to be split
too, that is, the CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE flag need to be cleared for the swap
cluster. The patch implemented this.
And because the THP swap writing needs the THP keeps as huge page during
writing. The PageWriteback flag is checked before splitting.

After supporting to delay THP (Transparent Huge Page) splitting after
swapped out, it is possible that some page table mappings of the THP are
turned into swap entries. So reuse_swap_page() need to check the swap
count in addition to the map count as before. This patch done that.
In the huge PMD write protect fault handler, in addition to the page map
count, the swap count need to be checked too, so the page lock need to
be acquired too when calling reuse_swap_page() in addition to the page
table lock.

may be used again when the THP is swapped out again later. So the swap
slots backing one THP can be reclaimed together when the swap count for
all swap slots for the THP reached SWAP_HAS_CACHE. In the patch, the
functions to check whether the swap count for all swap slots backing one
THP reached SWAP_HAS_CACHE are implemented and used when checking
whether a swap slot can be reclaimed.
To make it easier to determine whether a swap slot is backing a THP, a
new swap cluster flag named CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE is added to mark a swap
cluster which is backing a THP (Transparent Huge Page). Because THP
swap in as a whole isn't supported now. After deleting the THP from the
swap cache (for example, swapping out finished), the CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE
flag will be cleared. So that, the normal pages inside THP can be
swapped in individually.

Patch series "mm, THP, swap: Delay splitting THP after swapped out", v3.
This is the second step of THP (Transparent Huge Page) swap
optimization. In the first step, the splitting huge page is delayed
from almost the first step of swapping out to after allocating the swap
space for the THP and adding the THP into the swap cache. In the second
step, the splitting is delayed further to after the swapping out
finished. The plan is to delay splitting THP step by step, finally
avoid splitting THP for the THP swapping out and swap out/in the THP as
a whole.
In the patchset, more operations for the anonymous THP reclaiming, such
as TLB flushing, writing the THP to the swap device, removing the THP
from the swap cache are batched. So that the performance of anonymous
THP swapping out are improved.
During the development, the following scenarios/code paths have been
checked,
- swap out/in
- swap off
- write protect page fault
- madvise_free
- process exit
- split huge page
With the patchset, the swap out throughput improves 42% (from about
5.81GB/s to about 8.25GB/s) in the vm-scalability swap-w-seq test case
with 16 processes. At the same time, the IPI (reflect TLB flushing)
reduced about 78.9%. The test is done on a Xeon E5 v3 system. The swap
device used is a RAM simulated PMEM (persistent memory) device. To test
the sequential swapping out, the test case creates 8 processes, which
sequentially allocate and write to the anonymous pages until the RAM and
part of the swap device is used up.
Below is the part of the cover letter for the first step patchset of THP
swap optimization which applies to all steps.
=========================
Recently, the performance of the storage devices improved so fast that
we cannot saturate the disk bandwidth with single logical CPU when do
page swap out even on a high-end server machine. Because the
performance of the storage device improved faster than that of single
logical CPU. And it seems that the trend will not change in the near
future. On the other hand, the THP becomes more and more popular
because of increased memory size. So it becomes necessary to optimize
THP swap performance.
The advantages of the THP swap support include:
- Batch the swap operations for the THP to reduce TLB flushing and lock
acquiring/releasing, including allocating/freeing the swap space,
adding/deleting to/from the swap cache, and writing/reading the swap
space, etc. This will help improve the performance of the THP swap.
- The THP swap space read/write will be 2M sequential IO. It is
particularly helpful for the swap read, which are usually 4k random
IO. This will improve the performance of the THP swap too.
- It will help the memory fragmentation, especially when the THP is
heavily used by the applications. The 2M continuous pages will be
free up after THP swapping out.
- It will improve the THP utilization on the system with the swap
turned on. Because the speed for khugepaged to collapse the normal
pages into the THP is quite slow. After the THP is split during the
swapping out, it will take quite long time for the normal pages to
collapse back into the THP after being swapped in. The high THP
utilization helps the efficiency of the page based memory management
too.
There are some concerns regarding THP swap in, mainly because possible
enlarged read/write IO size (for swap in/out) may put more overhead on
the storage device. To deal with that, the THP swap in should be turned
on only when necessary.
For example, it can be selected via "always/never/madvise" logic, to be
turned on globally, turned off globally, or turned on only for VMA with
MADV_HUGEPAGE, etc.
This patch (of 12):
Previously, swapcache_free_cluster() is used only in the error path of
shrink_page_list() to free the swap cluster just allocated if the THP
(Transparent Huge Page) is failed to be split. In this patch, it is
enhanced to clear the swap cache flag (SWAP_HAS_CACHE) for the swap
cluster that holds the contents of THP swapped out.
This will be used in delaying splitting THP after swapping out support.
Because there is no THP swapping in as a whole support yet, after
clearing the swap cache flag, the swap cluster backing the THP swapped
out will be split. So that the swap slots in the swap cluster can be
swapped in as normal pages later.

A removed memory cgroup with a defined memory.low and some belonging
pagecache has very low chances to be freed.
If a cgroup has been removed, there is likely no memory pressure inside
the cgroup, and the pagecache is protected from the external pressure by
the defined low limit. The cgroup will be freed only after the reclaim
of all belonging pages. And it will not happen until there are any
reclaimable memory in the system. That means, there is a good chance,
that a cold pagecache will reside in the memory for an undefined amount
of time, wasting system resources.
This problem was fixed earlier by fa06235b8e ("cgroup: reset css on
destruction"), but it's not a best way to do it, as we can't really
reset all limits/counters during cgroup offlining.

Tetsuo Handa has reported[1][2][3] that direct reclaimers might get
stuck in too_many_isolated loop basically for ever because the last few
pages on the LRU lists are isolated by the kswapd which is stuck on fs
locks when doing the pageout or slab reclaim. This in turn means that
there is nobody to actually trigger the oom killer and the system is
basically unusable.
too_many_isolated has been introduced by commit 35cd78156c ("vmscan:
throttle direct reclaim when too many pages are isolated already") to
prevent from pre-mature oom killer invocations because back then no
reclaim progress could indeed trigger the OOM killer too early.
But since the oom detection rework in commit 0a0337e0d1 ("mm, oom:
rework oom detection") the allocation/reclaim retry loop considers all
the reclaimable pages and throttles the allocation at that layer so we
can loosen the direct reclaim throttling.
Make shrink_inactive_list loop over too_many_isolated bounded and
returns immediately when the situation hasn't resolved after the first
sleep.
Replace congestion_wait by a simple schedule_timeout_interruptible
because we are not really waiting on the IO congestion in this path.
Please note that this patch can theoretically cause the OOM killer to
trigger earlier while there are many pages isolated for the reclaim
which makes progress only very slowly. This would be obvious from the
oom report as the number of isolated pages are printed there. If we
ever hit this should_reclaim_retry should consider those numbers in the
evaluation in one way or another.

Getting -EBUSY from zs_page_migrate will make migration slow (retry) or
fail (zs_page_putback will schedule_work free_work, but it cannot ensure
the success).
I noticed this issue because my Kernel patched
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/28/113) that will remove retry in
__alloc_contig_migrate_range.
This retry will handle the -EBUSY because it will re-isolate the page
and re-call migrate_pages. Without it will make cma_alloc fail at once
with -EBUSY.
According to the review from Minchan Kim in
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/28/113, I update the patch to skip
unnecessary loops but not return -EBUSY if zspage is not inuse.

Nadav Amit report zap_page_range only specifies that the caller protect
the VMA list but does not specify whether it is held for read or write
with callers using either. madvise holds mmap_sem for read meaning that
a parallel zap operation can unmap PTEs which are then potentially
skipped by madvise which potentially returns with stale TLB entries
present. While the API could be extended, it would be a difficult API
to use. This patch causes zap_page_range() to always consider flushing
the full affected range. For small ranges or sparsely populated
mappings, this may result in one additional spurious TLB flush. For
larger ranges, it is possible that the TLB has already been flushed and
the overhead is negligible. Either way, this approach is safer overall
and avoids stale entries being present when madvise returns.
This can be illustrated with the following program provided by Nadav
Amit and slightly modified. With the patch applied, it has an exit code
of 0 indicating a stale TLB entry did not leak to userspace.

When walking the page tables to resolve an address that points to
!p*d_present() entry, huge_pte_offset() returns inconsistent values
depending on the level of page table (PUD or PMD).
It returns NULL in the case of a PUD entry while in the case of a PMD
entry, it returns a pointer to the page table entry.
A similar inconsitency exists when handling swap entries - returns NULL
for a PUD entry while a pointer to the pte_t is retured for the PMD
entry.
Update huge_pte_offset() to make the behaviour consistent - return a
pointer to the pte_t for hugepage or swap entries. Only return NULL in
instances where we have a p*d_none() entry and the size parameter
doesn't match the hugepage size at this level of the page table.
Document the behaviour to clarify the expected behaviour of this
function. This is to set clear semantics for architecture specific
implementations of huge_pte_offset().
Discussions on the arm64 implementation of huge_pte_offset()
(http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg133699.html) showed that there
is benefit from returning a pte_t* in the case of p*d_none().
The fault handling code in hugetlb_fault() can handle p*d_none() entries
and saves an extra round trip to huge_pte_alloc(). Other callers of
huge_pte_offset() should be ok as well.

mremap will attempt to create a 'duplicate' mapping if old_size == 0 is
specified. In the case of private mappings, mremap will actually create
a fresh separate private mapping unrelated to the original. This does
not fit with the design semantics of mremap as the intention is to
create a new mapping based on the original.
Therefore, return EINVAL in the case where an attempt is made to
duplicate a private mapping. Also, print a warning message (once) if
such an attempt is made.

init_pages_in_zone() is run under zone->lock, which means a long lock
time and disabled interrupts on large machines. This is currently not
an issue since it runs early in boot, but a later patch will change
that.
However, like other pfn scanners, we don't actually need zone->lock even
when other cpus are running. The only potentially dangerous operation
here is reading bogus buddy page owner due to race, and we already know
how to handle that. The worst that can happen is that we skip some
early allocated pages, which should not affect the debugging power of
page_owner noticeably.

In init_pages_in_zone() we currently use the generic set_page_owner()
function to initialize page_owner info for early allocated pages. This
means we needlessly do lookup_page_ext() twice for each page, and more
importantly save_stack(), which has to unwind the stack and find the
corresponding stack depot handle. Because the stack is always the same
for the initialization, unwind it once in init_pages_in_zone() and reuse
the handle. Also avoid the repeated lookup_page_ext().
This can significantly reduce boot times with page_owner=on on large
machines, especially for kernels built without frame pointer, where the
stack unwinding is noticeably slower.

Commit f52407ce2d ("memory hotplug: alloc page from other node in
memory online") has introduced N_HIGH_MEMORY checks to only use NUMA
aware allocations when there is some memory present because the
respective node might not have any memory yet at the time and so it
could fail or even OOM.
Things have changed since then though. Zonelists are now always
initialized before we do any allocations even for hotplug (see
959ecc48fc ("mm/memory_hotplug.c: fix building of node hotplug
zonelist")).
Therefore these checks are not really needed. In fact caller of the
allocator should never care about whether the node is populated because
that might change at any time.

zonelists_mutex was introduced by commit 4eaf3f6439 ("mem-hotplug: fix
potential race while building zonelist for new populated zone") to
protect zonelist building from races. This is no longer needed though
because both memory online and offline are fully serialized. New users
have grown since then.
Notably setup_per_zone_wmarks wants to prevent from races between memory
hotplug, khugepaged setup and manual min_free_kbytes update via sysctl
(see cfd3da1e49 ("mm: Serialize access to min_free_kbytes"). Let's
add a private lock for that purpose. This will not prevent from seeing
halfway through memory hotplug operation but that shouldn't be a big
deal becuse memory hotplug will update watermarks explicitly so we will
eventually get a full picture. The lock just makes sure we won't race
when updating watermarks leading to weird results.
Also __build_all_zonelists manipulates global data so add a private lock
for it as well. This doesn't seem to be necessary today but it is more
robust to have a lock there.
While we are at it make sure we document that memory online/offline
depends on a full serialization either via mem_hotplug_begin() or
device_lock.

build_all_zonelists has been (ab)using stop_machine to make sure that
zonelists do not change while somebody is looking at them. This is is
just a gross hack because a) it complicates the context from which we
can call build_all_zonelists (see 3f906ba236 ("mm/memory-hotplug:
switch locking to a percpu rwsem")) and b) is is not really necessary
especially after "mm, page_alloc: simplify zonelist initialization" and
c) it doesn't really provide the protection it claims (see below).
Updates of the zonelists happen very seldom, basically only when a zone
becomes populated during memory online or when it loses all the memory
during offline. A racing iteration over zonelists could either miss a
zone or try to work on one zone twice. Both of these are something we
can live with occasionally because there will always be at least one
zone visible so we are not likely to fail allocation too easily for
example.
Please note that the original stop_machine approach doesn't really
provide a better exclusion because the iteration might be interrupted
half way (unless the whole iteration is preempt disabled which is not
the case in most cases) so the some zones could still be seen twice or a
zone missed.
I have run the pathological online/offline of the single memblock in the

build_zonelists gradually builds zonelists from the nearest to the most
distant node. As we do not know how many populated zones we will have
in each node we rely on the _zoneref to terminate initialized part of
the zonelist by a NULL zone. While this is functionally correct it is
quite suboptimal because we cannot allow updaters to race with zonelists
users because they could see an empty zonelist and fail the allocation
or hit the OOM killer in the worst case.
We can do much better, though. We can store the node ordering into an
already existing node_order array and then give this array to
build_zonelists_in_node_order and do the whole initialization at once.
zonelists consumers still might see halfway initialized state but that
should be much more tolerateable because the list will not be empty and
they would either see some zone twice or skip over some zone(s) in the
worst case which shouldn't lead to immediate failures.
While at it let's simplify build_zonelists_node which is rather
confusing now. It gets an index into the zoneref array and returns the
updated index for the next iteration. Let's rename the function to
build_zonerefs_node to better reflect its purpose and give it zoneref
array to update. The function doesn't the index anymore. It just
returns the number of added zones so that the caller can advance the
zonered array start for the next update.
This patch alone doesn't introduce any functional change yet, though, it
is merely a preparatory work for later changes.

try_online_node calls hotadd_new_pgdat which already calls
build_all_zonelists. So the additional call is redundant. Even though
hotadd_new_pgdat will only initialize zonelists of the new node this is
the right thing to do because such a node doesn't have any memory so
other zonelists would ignore all the zones from this node anyway.

build_all_zonelists gets a zone parameter to initialize zone's pagesets.
There is only a single user which gives a non-NULL zone parameter and
that one doesn't really need the rest of the build_all_zonelists (see
commit 6dcd73d701 ("memory-hotplug: allocate zone's pcp before
onlining pages")).
Therefore remove setup_zone_pageset from build_all_zonelists and call it
from its only user directly. This will also remove a pointless zonlists
rebuilding which is always good.

__build_all_zonelists reinitializes each online cpu local node for
CONFIG_HAVE_MEMORYLESS_NODES. This makes sense because previously
memory less nodes could gain some memory during memory hotplug and so
the local node should be changed for CPUs close to such a node. It
makes less sense to do that unconditionally for a newly creaded NUMA
node which is still offline and without any memory.
Let's also simplify the cpu loop and use for_each_online_cpu instead of
an explicit cpu_online check for all possible cpus.

Patch series "cleanup zonelists initialization", v1.
This is aimed at cleaning up the zonelists initialization code we have
but the primary motivation was bug report [2] which got resolved but the
usage of stop_machine is just too ugly to live. Most patches are
straightforward but 3 of them need a special consideration.
Patch 1 removes zone ordered zonelists completely. I am CCing linux-api
because this is a user visible change. As I argue in the patch
description I do not think we have a strong usecase for it these days.
I have kept sysctl in place and warn into the log if somebody tries to
configure zone lists ordering. If somebody has a real usecase for it we
can revert this patch but I do not expect anybody will actually notice
runtime differences. This patch is not strictly needed for the rest but
it made patch 6 easier to implement.
Patch 7 removes stop_machine from build_all_zonelists without adding any
special synchronization between iterators and updater which I _believe_
is acceptable as explained in the changelog. I hope I am not missing
anything.
Patch 8 then removes zonelists_mutex which is kind of ugly as well and
not really needed AFAICS but a care should be taken when double checking
my thinking.
This patch (of 9):
Supporting zone ordered zonelists costs us just a lot of code while the
usefulness is arguable if existent at all. Mel has already made node
ordering default on 64b systems. 32b systems are still using
ZONELIST_ORDER_ZONE because it is considered better to fallback to a
different NUMA node rather than consume precious lowmem zones.
This argument is, however, weaken by the fact that the memory reclaim
has been reworked to be node rather than zone oriented. This means that
lowmem requests have to skip over all highmem pages on LRUs already and
so zone ordering doesn't save the reclaim time much. So the only
advantage of the zone ordering is under a light memory pressure when
highmem requests do not ever hit into lowmem zones and the lowmem
pressure doesn't need to reclaim.
Considering that 32b NUMA systems are rather suboptimal already and it
is generally advisable to use 64b kernel on such a HW I believe we
should rather care about the code maintainability and just get rid of
ZONELIST_ORDER_ZONE altogether. Keep systcl in place and warn if
somebody tries to set zone ordering either from kernel command line or
the sysctl.

Historically we have enforced that any kernel zone (e.g ZONE_NORMAL) has
to precede the Movable zone in the physical memory range. The purpose
of the movable zone is, however, not bound to any physical memory
restriction. It merely defines a class of migrateable and reclaimable
memory.
There are users (e.g. CMA) who might want to reserve specific physical
memory ranges for their own purpose. Moreover our pfn walkers have to
be prepared for zones overlapping in the physical range already because
we do support interleaving NUMA nodes and therefore zones can interleave
as well. This means we can allow each memory block to be associated
with a different zone.
Loosen the current onlining semantic and allow explicit onlining type on
any memblock. That means that online_{kernel,movable} will be allowed
regardless of the physical address of the memblock as long as it is
offline of course. This might result in moveble zone overlapping with
other kernel zones. Default onlining then becomes a bit tricky but
still sensible. echo online > memoryXY/state will online the given
block to
1) the default zone if the given range is outside of any zone
2) the enclosing zone if such a zone doesn't interleave with
any other zone
3) the default zone if more zones interleave for this range
where default zone is movable zone only if movable_node is enabled
otherwise it is a kernel zone.
Here is an example of the semantic with (movable_node is not present but
it work in an analogous way). We start with following memblocks, all of
them offline:
memory34/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory37/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory38/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory39/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory40/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory41/valid_zones:Normal Movable
Now, we online block 34 in default mode and block 37 as movable
root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# echo online > memory34/state
root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# echo online_movable > memory37/state
memory34/valid_zones:Normal
memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory37/valid_zones:Movable
memory38/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory39/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory40/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory41/valid_zones:Normal Movable
As we can see all other blocks can still be onlined both into Normal and
Movable zones and the Normal is default because the Movable zone spans
only block37 now.
root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# echo online_movable > memory41/state
memory34/valid_zones:Normal
memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory37/valid_zones:Movable
memory38/valid_zones:Movable Normal
memory39/valid_zones:Movable Normal
memory40/valid_zones:Movable Normal
memory41/valid_zones:Movable
Now the default zone for blocks 37-41 has changed because movable zone
spans that range.
root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# echo online_kernel > memory39/state
memory34/valid_zones:Normal
memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory37/valid_zones:Movable
memory38/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory39/valid_zones:Normal
memory40/valid_zones:Movable Normal
memory41/valid_zones:Movable
Note that the block 39 now belongs to the zone Normal and so block38
falls into Normal by default as well.
For completness
root@test1:/sys/devices/system/node/node1# for i in memory[34]?
do
echo online > $i/state 2>/dev/null
done
memory34/valid_zones:Normal
memory35/valid_zones:Normal
memory36/valid_zones:Normal
memory37/valid_zones:Movable
memory38/valid_zones:Normal
memory39/valid_zones:Normal
memory40/valid_zones:Movable
memory41/valid_zones:Movable
Implementation wise the change is quite straightforward. We can get rid
of allow_online_pfn_range altogether. online_pages allows only offline
nodes already. The original default_zone_for_pfn will become
default_kernel_zone_for_pfn. New default_zone_for_pfn implements the
above semantic. zone_for_pfn_range is slightly reorganized to implement
kernel and movable online type explicitly and MMOP_ONLINE_KEEP becomes a
catch all default behavior.

Prior to commit f1dd2cd13c ("mm, memory_hotplug: do not associate
hotadded memory to zones until online") we used to allow to change the
valid zone types of a memory block if it is adjacent to a different zone
type.
This fact was reflected in memoryNN/valid_zones by the ordering of
printed zones. The first one was default (echo online > memoryNN/state)
and the other one could be onlined explicitly by online_{movable,kernel}.
This behavior was removed by the said patch and as such the ordering was
not all that important. In most cases a kernel zone would be default
anyway. The only exception is movable_node handled by "mm,
memory_hotplug: support movable_node for hotpluggable nodes".
Let's reintroduce this behavior again because later patch will remove
the zone overlap restriction and so user will be allowed to online
kernel resp. movable block regardless of its placement. Original
behavior will then become significant again because it would be
non-trivial for users to see what is the default zone to online into.
Implementation is really simple. Pull out zone selection out of
move_pfn_range into zone_for_pfn_range helper and use it in
show_valid_zones to display the zone for default onlining and then both
kernel and movable if they are allowed. Default online zone is not
duplicated.

Commit 9adb62a5df ("mm/hotplug: correctly setup fallback zonelists
when creating new pgdat") tries to build the correct zonelist for a
newly added node, while it is not necessary to rebuild it for already
exist nodes.
In build_zonelists(), it will iterate on nodes with memory. For a newly
added node, it will have memory until node_states_set_node() is called
in online_pages().
This patch avoids rebuilding the zonelists for already existing nodes.
build_zonelists_node() uses managed_zone(zone) checks, so it should not
include empty zones anyway. So effectively we avoid some pointless work
under stop_machine().

Some shrinkers may only be able to free a bunch of objects at a time,
and so free more than the requested nr_to_scan in one pass.
Whilst other shrinkers may find themselves even unable to scan as many
objects as they counted, and so underreport. Account for the extra
freed/scanned objects against the total number of objects we intend to
scan, otherwise we may end up penalising the slab far more than
intended. Similarly, we want to add the underperforming scan to the
deferred pass so that we try harder and harder in future passes.

This SLUB free list pointer obfuscation code is modified from Brad
Spengler/PaX Team's code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX
based on my understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the
original code are mine and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX
code.
This adds a per-cache random value to SLUB caches that is XORed with
their freelist pointer address and value. This adds nearly zero
overhead and frustrates the very common heap overflow exploitation
method of overwriting freelist pointers.
A recent example of the attack is written up here:
http://cyseclabs.com/blog/cve-2016-6187-heap-off-by-one-exploit
and there is a section dedicated to the technique the book "A Guide to
Kernel Exploitation: Attacking the Core".
This is based on patches by Daniel Micay, and refactored to minimize the
use of #ifdef.
With 200-count cycles of "hackbench -g 20 -l 1000" I saw the following
run times:
before:
mean 10.11882499999999999995
variance .03320378329145728642
stdev .18221905304181911048
after:
mean 10.12654000000000000014
variance .04700556623115577889
stdev .21680767106160192064
The difference gets lost in the noise, but if the above is to be taken
literally, using CONFIG_FREELIST_HARDENED is 0.07% slower.

When servicing mmap() reads from file holes the current DAX code
allocates a page cache page of all zeroes and places the struct page
pointer in the mapping->page_tree radix tree. This has three major
drawbacks:
1) It consumes memory unnecessarily. For every 4k page that is read via
a DAX mmap() over a hole, we allocate a new page cache page. This
means that if you read 1GiB worth of pages, you end up using 1GiB of
zeroed memory.
2) It is slower than using a common zero page because each page fault
has more work to do. Instead of just inserting a common zero page we
have to allocate a page cache page, zero it, and then insert it.
3) The fact that we had to check for both DAX exceptional entries and
for page cache pages in the radix tree made the DAX code more
complex.
This series solves these issues by following the lead of the DAX PMD
code and using a common 4k zero page instead. This reduces memory usage
and decreases latencies for some workloads, and it simplifies the DAX
code, removing over 100 lines in total.
This patch (of 5):
To be able to use the common 4k zero page in DAX we need to have our PTE
fault path look more like our PMD fault path where a PTE entry can be
marked as dirty and writeable as it is first inserted rather than
waiting for a follow-up dax_pfn_mkwrite() => finish_mkwrite_fault()
call.
Right now we can rely on having a dax_pfn_mkwrite() call because we can
distinguish between these two cases in do_wp_page():
case 1: 4k zero page => writable DAX storage
case 2: read-only DAX storage => writeable DAX storage
This distinction is made by via vm_normal_page(). vm_normal_page()
returns false for the common 4k zero page, though, just as it does for
DAX ptes. Instead of special casing the DAX + 4k zero page case we will
simplify our DAX PTE page fault sequence so that it matches our DAX PMD
sequence, and get rid of the dax_pfn_mkwrite() helper. We will instead
use dax_iomap_fault() to handle write-protection faults.
This means that insert_pfn() needs to follow the lead of
insert_pfn_pmd() and allow us to pass in a 'mkwrite' flag. If 'mkwrite'
is set insert_pfn() will do the work that was previously done by
wp_page_reuse() as part of the dax_pfn_mkwrite() call path.

Pull x86 mm changes from Ingo Molnar:
"PCID support, 5-level paging support, Secure Memory Encryption support
The main changes in this cycle are support for three new, complex
hardware features of x86 CPUs:
- Add 5-level paging support, which is a new hardware feature on
upcoming Intel CPUs allowing up to 128 PB of virtual address space
and 4 PB of physical RAM space - a 512-fold increase over the old
limits. (Supercomputers of the future forecasting hurricanes on an
ever warming planet can certainly make good use of more RAM.)
Many of the necessary changes went upstream in previous cycles,
v4.14 is the first kernel that can enable 5-level paging.
This feature is activated via CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y - disabled by
default.
(By Kirill A. Shutemov)
- Add 'encrypted memory' support, which is a new hardware feature on
upcoming AMD CPUs ('Secure Memory Encryption', SME) allowing system
RAM to be encrypted and decrypted (mostly) transparently by the
CPU, with a little help from the kernel to transition to/from
encrypted RAM. Such RAM should be more secure against various
attacks like RAM access via the memory bus and should make the
radio signature of memory bus traffic harder to intercept (and
decrypt) as well.
This feature is activated via CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT=y - disabled
by default.
(By Tom Lendacky)
- Enable PCID optimized TLB flushing on newer Intel CPUs: PCID is a
hardware feature that attaches an address space tag to TLB entries
and thus allows to skip TLB flushing in many cases, even if we
switch mm's.
(By Andy Lutomirski)
All three of these features were in the works for a long time, and
it's coincidence of the three independent development paths that they
are all enabled in v4.14 at once"

Wendy Wang reported off-list that a RAS HWPOISON-SOFT test case failed
and bisected it to the commit 479f854a20 ("mm, page_alloc: defer
debugging checks of pages allocated from the PCP").
The problem is that a page that was poisoned with madvise() is reused.
The commit removed a check that would trigger if DEBUG_VM was enabled
but re-enabling the check only fixes the problem as a side-effect by
printing a bad_page warning and recovering.
The root of the problem is that an madvise() can leave a poisoned page
on the per-cpu list. This patch drains all per-cpu lists after pages
are poisoned so that they will not be reused. Wendy reports that the
test case in question passes with this patch applied. While this could
be done in a targeted fashion, it is over-complicated for such a rare
operation.

The invalidate_page callback suffered from two pitfalls. First it used
to happen after the page table lock was release and thus a new page
might have setup before the call to invalidate_page() happened.
This is in a weird way fixed by commit c7ab0d2fdc ("mm: convert
try_to_unmap_one() to use page_vma_mapped_walk()") that moved the
callback under the page table lock but this also broke several existing
users of the mmu_notifier API that assumed they could sleep inside this
callback.
The second pitfall was invalidate_page() being the only callback not
taking a range of address in respect to invalidation but was giving an
address and a page. Lots of the callback implementers assumed this
could never be THP and thus failed to invalidate the appropriate range
for THP.
By killing this callback we unify the mmu_notifier callback API to
always take a virtual address range as input.
Finally this also simplifies the end user life as there is now two clear
choices:
- invalidate_range_start()/end() callback (which allow you to sleep)
- invalidate_range() where you can not sleep but happen right after
page table update under page table lock

Replace all mmu_notifier_invalidate_page() calls by *_invalidate_range()
and make sure it is bracketed by calls to *_invalidate_range_start()/end().
Note that because we can not presume the pmd value or pte value we have
to assume the worst and unconditionaly report an invalidation as
happening.

This reverts commit aac2fea94f.
It turns out that that patch was complete and utter garbage, and broke
KVM, resulting in odd oopses.
Quoting Andrea Arcangeli:
"The aforementioned commit has 3 bugs.
1) mmu_notifier_invalidate_range cannot be used in replacement of
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start/end.
For KVM mmu_notifier_invalidate_range is a noop and rightfully so.
A MMU notifier implementation has to implement either
->invalidate_range method or the invalidate_range_start/end
methods, not both. And if you implement invalidate_range_start/end
like KVM is forced to do, calling mmu_notifier_invalidate_range in
common code is a noop for KVM.
For those MMU notifiers that can get away only implementing
->invalidate_range, the ->invalidate_range is implicitly called by
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end(). And only those secondary MMUs
that share the same pagetable with the primary MMU (like AMD
iommuv2) can get away only implementing ->invalidate_range.
So all cases (THP on/off) are broken right now.
To fix this is enough to replace mmu_notifier_invalidate_range with
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start;mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end.
Either that or call multiple mmu_notifier_invalidate_page like
before.
2) address + (1UL << compound_order(page) is buggy, it should be
PAGE_SIZE << compound_order(page), it's bytes not pages, 2M not
512.
3) The whole invalidate_range thing was an attempt to call a single
invalidate while walking multiple 4k ptes that maps the same THP
(after a pmd virtual split without physical compound page THP
split).
It's unclear if the rmap_walk will always provide an address that
is 2M aligned as parameter to try_to_unmap_one, in presence of THP.
I think it needs also an address &= (PAGE_SIZE <<
compound_order(page)) - 1 to be safe"
In general, we should stop making excuses for horrible MMU notifier
users. It's much more important that the core VM is sane and safe, than
letting MMU notifiers sleep.
So if some MMU notifier is sleeping under a spinlock, we need to fix the
notifier, not try to make excuses for that garbage in the core VM.

Commit 3510ca20ec ("Minor page waitqueue cleanups") made the page
queue code always add new waiters to the back of the queue, which helps
upcoming patches to batch the wakeups for some horrid loads where the
wait queues grow to thousands of entries.
However, I forgot about the nasrt add_page_wait_queue() special case
code that is only used by the cachefiles code. That one still continued
to add the new wait queue entries at the beginning of the list.
Fix it, because any sane batched wakeup will require that we don't
suddenly start getting new entries at the beginning of the list that we
already handled in a previous batch.
[ The current code always does the whole list while holding the lock, so
wait queue ordering doesn't matter for correctness, but even then it's
better to add later entries at the end from a fairness standpoint ]

The "lock_page_killable()" function waits for exclusive access to the
page lock bit using the WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE bit in the waitqueue entry
set.
That means that if it gets woken up, other waiters may have been
skipped.
That, in turn, means that if it sees the page being unlocked, it *must*
take that lock and return success, even if a lethal signal is also
pending.
So instead of checking for lethal signals first, we need to check for
them after we've checked the actual bit that we were waiting for. Even
if that might then delay the killing of the process.
This matches the order of the old "wait_on_bit_lock()" infrastructure
that the page locking used to use (and is still used in a few other
areas).
Note that if we still return an error after having unsuccessfully tried
to acquire the page lock, that is ok: that means that some other thread
was able to get ahead of us and lock the page, and when that other
thread then unlocks the page, the wakeup event will be repeated. So any
other pending waiters will now get properly woken up.

Tim Chen and Kan Liang have been battling a customer load that shows
extremely long page wakeup lists. The cause seems to be constant NUMA
migration of a hot page that is shared across a lot of threads, but the
actual root cause for the exact behavior has not been found.
Tim has a patch that batches the wait list traversal at wakeup time, so
that we at least don't get long uninterruptible cases where we traverse
and wake up thousands of processes and get nasty latency spikes. That
is likely 4.14 material, but we're still discussing the page waitqueue
specific parts of it.
In the meantime, I've tried to look at making the page wait queues less
expensive, and failing miserably. If you have thousands of threads
waiting for the same page, it will be painful. We'll need to try to
figure out the NUMA balancing issue some day, in addition to avoiding
the excessive spinlock hold times.
That said, having tried to rewrite the page wait queues, I can at least
fix up some of the braindamage in the current situation. In particular:
(a) we don't want to continue walking the page wait list if the bit
we're waiting for already got set again (which seems to be one of
the patterns of the bad load). That makes no progress and just
causes pointless cache pollution chasing the pointers.
(b) we don't want to put the non-locking waiters always on the front of
the queue, and the locking waiters always on the back. Not only is
that unfair, it means that we wake up thousands of reading threads
that will just end up being blocked by the writer later anyway.
Also add a comment about the layout of 'struct wait_page_key' - there is
an external user of it in the cachefiles code that means that it has to
match the layout of 'struct wait_bit_key' in the two first members. It
so happens to match, because 'struct page *' and 'unsigned long *' end
up having the same values simply because the page flags are the first
member in struct page.

This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The
block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and
request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node
is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm
passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code).
For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists
once per block device. But given that the block layer also does
partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is
used for said remapping in generic_make_request.
Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or
sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all
over the stack.

The 'move_paghes()' system call was introduced long long ago with the
same permission checks as for sending a signal (except using
CAP_SYS_NICE instead of CAP_SYS_KILL for the overriding capability).
That turns out to not be a great choice - while the system call really
only moves physical page allocations around (and you need other
capabilities to do a lot of it), you can check the return value to map
out some the virtual address choices and defeat ASLR of a binary that
still shares your uid.
So change the access checks to the more common 'ptrace_may_access()'
model instead.
This tightens the access checks for the uid, and also effectively
changes the CAP_SYS_NICE check to CAP_SYS_PTRACE, but it's unlikely that
anybody really _uses_ this legacy system call any more (we hav ebetter
NUMA placement models these days), so I expect nobody to notice.
Famous last words.

Wenwei Tao has noticed that our current assumption that the oom victim
is dying and never doing any visible changes after it dies, and so the
oom_reaper can tear it down, is not entirely true.
__task_will_free_mem consider a task dying when SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT is set
but do_group_exit sends SIGKILL to all threads _after_ the flag is set.
So there is a race window when some threads won't have
fatal_signal_pending while the oom_reaper could start unmapping the
address space. Moreover some paths might not check for fatal signals
before each PF/g-u-p/copy_from_user.
We already have a protection for oom_reaper vs. PF races by checking
MMF_UNSTABLE. This has been, however, checked only for kernel threads
(use_mm users) which can outlive the oom victim. A simple fix would be
to extend the current check in handle_mm_fault for all tasks but that
wouldn't be sufficient because the current check assumes that a kernel
thread would bail out after EFAULT from get_user*/copy_from_user and
never re-read the same address which would succeed because the PF path
has established page tables already. This seems to be the case for the
only existing use_mm user currently (virtio driver) but it is rather
fragile in general.
This is even more fragile in general for more complex paths such as
generic_perform_write which can re-read the same address more times
(e.g. iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic to fail and then
iov_iter_fault_in_readable on retry).
Therefore we have to implement MMF_UNSTABLE protection in a robust way
and never make a potentially corrupted content visible. That requires
to hook deeper into the PF path and check for the flag _every time_
before a pte for anonymous memory is established (that means all
!VM_SHARED mappings).
The corruption can be triggered artificially
(http://lkml.kernel.org/r/201708040646.v746kkhC024636@www262.sakura.ne.jp)
but there doesn't seem to be any real life bug report. The race window
should be quite tight to trigger most of the time.

To avoid a possible deadlock, sysfs_slab_remove() schedules an
asynchronous work to delete sysfs entries corresponding to the kmem
cache. To ensure the cache isn't freed before the work function is
called, it takes a reference to the cache kobject. The reference is
supposed to be released by the work function.
However, the work function (sysfs_slab_remove_workfn()) does nothing in

There is existing use after free bug when deferred struct pages are
enabled:
The memblock_add() allocates memory for the memory array if more than
128 entries are needed. See comment in e820__memblock_setup():
* The bootstrap memblock region count maximum is 128 entries
* (INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS), but EFI might pass us more E820 entries
* than that - so allow memblock resizing.
This memblock memory is freed here:
free_low_memory_core_early()
We access the freed memblock.memory later in boot when deferred pages
are initialized in this path:
deferred_init_memmap()
for_each_mem_pfn_range()
__next_mem_pfn_range()
type = &memblock.memory;
One possible explanation for why this use-after-free hasn't been hit
before is that the limit of INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS has never been
exceeded at least on systems where deferred struct pages were enabled.
Tested by reducing INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS down to 4 from the current 128,
and verifying in qemu that this code is getting excuted and that the
freed pages are sane.

The issue is that writeback doesn't hold a page reference and the page
might get freed after PG_writeback is cleared (and the mapping is
unlocked) in test_clear_page_writeback(). The stat functions looking up
the page's node or zone are safe, as those attributes are static across
allocation and free cycles. But page->mem_cgroup is not, and it will
get cleared if we race with truncation or migration.
It appears this race window has been around for a while, but less likely
to trigger when the memcg stats were updated first thing after
PG_writeback is cleared. Recent changes reshuffled this code to update
the global node stats before the memcg ones, though, stretching the race
window out to an extent where people can reproduce the problem.
Update test_clear_page_writeback() to look up and pin page->mem_cgroup
before clearing PG_writeback, then not use that pointer afterward. It
is a partial revert of 62cccb8c8e ("mm: simplify lock_page_memcg()")
but leaves the pageref-holding callsites that aren't affected alone.

Speculative processor accesses may reference any memory that has a
valid page table entry. While a speculative access won't generate
a machine check, it will log the error in a machine check bank. That
could cause escalation of a subsequent error since the overflow bit
will be then set in the machine check bank status register.
Code has to be double-plus-tricky to avoid mentioning the 1:1 virtual
address of the page we want to map out otherwise we may trigger the
very problem we are trying to avoid. We use a non-canonical address
that passes through the usual Linux table walking code to get to the
same "pte".
Thanks to Dave Hansen for reviewing several iterations of this.

When running in guest mode ppc64 supports a different mechanism for hugetlb
allocation/reservation. The LPAR management application called HMC can
be used to reserve a set of hugepages and we pass the details of
reserved pages via device tree to the guest. (more details in
htab_dt_scan_hugepage_blocks()) . We do the memblock_reserve of the range
and later in the boot sequence, we add the reserved range to huge_boot_pages.
But to enable 16G hugetlb on baremetal config (when we are not running as guest)

The problem is that shmem_unused_huge_shrink() moves entries from the
global sbinfo->shrinklist to its local lists and then releases the
spinlock. However, a parallel shmem_setattr() could access one of these
entries directly and add it back to the global shrinklist if it is
removed, with the spinlock held.
The logic itself looks solid since an entry could be either in a local
list or the global list, otherwise it is removed from one of them by
list_del_init(). So probably the race condition is that, one CPU is in
the middle of INIT_LIST_HEAD() but the other CPU calls list_empty()
which returns true too early then the following list_add_tail() sees a
corrupted entry.
list_empty_careful() is designed to fix this situation.

Revert commit bb01b64cfa ("mm/balloon_compaction.c: enqueue zero page
to balloon device")'
Zeroing ballon pages is rather time consuming, especially when a lot of
pages are in flight. E.g. 7GB worth of ballooned memory takes 2.8s with
__GFP_ZERO while it takes ~491ms without it.
The original commit argued that zeroing will help ksmd to merge these
pages on the host but this argument is assuming that the host actually
marks balloon pages for ksm which is not universally true. So we pay
performance penalty for something that even might not be used in the end
which is wrong. The host can zero out pages on its own when there is a
need.

Nadav reported KSM can corrupt the user data by the TLB batching
race[1]. That means data user written can be lost.
Quote from Nadav Amit:
"For this race we need 4 CPUs:
CPU0: Caches a writable and dirty PTE entry, and uses the stale value
for write later.
CPU1: Runs madvise_free on the range that includes the PTE. It would
clear the dirty-bit. It batches TLB flushes.
CPU2: Writes 4 to /proc/PID/clear_refs , clearing the PTEs soft-dirty.
We care about the fact that it clears the PTE write-bit, and of
course, batches TLB flushes.
CPU3: Runs KSM. Our purpose is to pass the following test in
write_protect_page():
if (pte_write(*pvmw.pte) || pte_dirty(*pvmw.pte) ||
(pte_protnone(*pvmw.pte) && pte_savedwrite(*pvmw.pte)))
Since it will avoid TLB flush. And we want to do it while the PTE is
stale. Later, and before replacing the page, we would be able to
change the page.
Note that all the operations the CPU1-3 perform canhappen in parallel
since they only acquire mmap_sem for read.
We start with two identical pages. Everything below regards the same
page/PTE.
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 CPU3
---- ---- ---- ----
Write the same
value on page
[cache PTE as
dirty in TLB]
MADV_FREE
pte_mkclean()
4 > clear_refs
pte_wrprotect()
write_protect_page()
[ success, no flush ]
pages_indentical()
[ ok ]
Write to page
different value
[Ok, using stale
PTE]
replace_page()
Later, CPU1, CPU2 and CPU3 would flush the TLB, but that is too late.
CPU0 already wrote on the page, but KSM ignored this write, and it got
lost"
In above scenario, MADV_FREE is fixed by changing TLB batching API
including [set|clear]_tlb_flush_pending. Remained thing is soft-dirty
part.
This patch changes soft-dirty uses TLB batching API instead of
flush_tlb_mm and KSM checks pending TLB flush by using
mm_tlb_flush_pending so that it will flush TLB to avoid data lost if
there are other parallel threads pending TLB flush.

Nadav reported parallel MADV_DONTNEED on same range has a stale TLB
problem and Mel fixed it[1] and found same problem on MADV_FREE[2].
Quote from Mel Gorman:
"The race in question is CPU 0 running madv_free and updating some PTEs
while CPU 1 is also running madv_free and looking at the same PTEs.
CPU 1 may have writable TLB entries for a page but fail the pte_dirty
check (because CPU 0 has updated it already) and potentially fail to
flush.
Hence, when madv_free on CPU 1 returns, there are still potentially
writable TLB entries and the underlying PTE is still present so that a
subsequent write does not necessarily propagate the dirty bit to the
underlying PTE any more. Reclaim at some unknown time at the future
may then see that the PTE is still clean and discard the page even
though a write has happened in the meantime. I think this is possible
but I could have missed some protection in madv_free that prevents it
happening."
This patch aims for solving both problems all at once and is ready for
other problem with KSM, MADV_FREE and soft-dirty story[3].
TLB batch API(tlb_[gather|finish]_mmu] uses [inc|dec]_tlb_flush_pending
and mmu_tlb_flush_pending so that when tlb_finish_mmu is called, we can
catch there are parallel threads going on. In that case, forcefully,
flush TLB to prevent for user to access memory via stale TLB entry
although it fail to gather page table entry.
I confirmed this patch works with [4] test program Nadav gave so this
patch supersedes "mm: Always flush VMA ranges affected by zap_page_range
v2" in current mmotm.
NOTE:
This patch modifies arch-specific TLB gathering interface(x86, ia64,
s390, sh, um). It seems most of architecture are straightforward but
s390 need to be careful because tlb_flush_mmu works only if
mm->context.flush_mm is set to non-zero which happens only a pte entry
really is cleared by ptep_get_and_clear and friends. However, this
problem never changes the pte entries but need to flush to prevent
memory access from stale tlb.

This patch is a preparatory patch for solving race problems caused by
TLB batch. For that, we will increase/decrease TLB flush pending count
of mm_struct whenever tlb_[gather|finish]_mmu is called.
Before making it simple, this patch separates architecture specific part
and rename it to arch_tlb_[gather|finish]_mmu and generic part just
calls it.
It shouldn't change any behavior.

While deferring TLB flushes is a good practice, the reverted patch
caused pending TLB flushes to be checked while the page-table lock is
not taken. As a result, in architectures with weak memory model (PPC),
Linux may miss a memory-barrier, miss the fact TLB flushes are pending,
and cause (in theory) a memory corruption.
Since the alternative of using smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() was
considered a bit open-coded, and the performance impact is expected to
be small, the previous patch is reverted.
This reverts b0943d61b8 ("mm: numa: defer TLB flush for THP migration

Patch series "fixes of TLB batching races", v6.
It turns out that Linux TLB batching mechanism suffers from various
races. Races that are caused due to batching during reclamation were
recently handled by Mel and this patch-set deals with others. The more
fundamental issue is that concurrent updates of the page-tables allow
for TLB flushes to be batched on one core, while another core changes
the page-tables. This other core may assume a PTE change does not
require a flush based on the updated PTE value, while it is unaware that
TLB flushes are still pending.
This behavior affects KSM (which may result in memory corruption) and
MADV_FREE and MADV_DONTNEED (which may result in incorrect behavior). A
proof-of-concept can easily produce the wrong behavior of MADV_DONTNEED.
Memory corruption in KSM is harder to produce in practice, but was
observed by hacking the kernel and adding a delay before flushing and
replacing the KSM page.
Finally, there is also one memory barrier missing, which may affect
architectures with weak memory model.
This patch (of 7):
Setting and clearing mm->tlb_flush_pending can be performed by multiple
threads, since mmap_sem may only be acquired for read in
task_numa_work(). If this happens, tlb_flush_pending might be cleared
while one of the threads still changes PTEs and batches TLB flushes.
This can lead to the same race between migration and
change_protection_range() that led to the introduction of
tlb_flush_pending. The result of this race was data corruption, which
means that this patch also addresses a theoretically possible data
corruption.
An actual data corruption was not observed, yet the race was was
confirmed by adding assertion to check tlb_flush_pending is not set by
two threads, adding artificial latency in change_protection_range() and
using sysctl to reduce kernel.numa_balancing_scan_delay_ms.

The RDMA subsystem can generate several thousand of these messages per
second eventually leading to a kernel crash. Ratelimit these messages
to prevent this crash.
Doug said:
"I've been carrying a version of this for several kernel versions. I
don't remember when they started, but we have one (and only one) class
of machines: Dell PE R730xd, that generate these errors. When it
happens, without a rate limit, we get rcu timeouts and kernel oopses.
With the rate limit, we just get a lot of annoying kernel messages but
the machine continues on, recovers, and eventually the memory
operations all succeed"
And:
"> Well... why are all these EBUSY's occurring? It sounds inefficient
> (at least) but if it is expected, normal and unavoidable then
> perhaps we should just remove that message altogether?
I don't have an answer to that question. To be honest, I haven't
looked real hard. We never had this at all, then it started out of the
blue, but only on our Dell 730xd machines (and it hits all of them),
but no other classes or brands of machines. And we have our 730xd
machines loaded up with different brands and models of cards (for
instance one dedicated to mlx4 hardware, one for qib, one for mlx5, an
ocrdma/cxgb4 combo, etc), so the fact that it hit all of the machines
meant it wasn't tied to any particular brand/model of RDMA hardware.
To me, it always smelled of a hardware oddity specific to maybe the
CPUs or mainboard chipsets in these machines, so given that I'm not an
mm expert anyway, I never chased it down.
A few other relevant details: it showed up somewhere around 4.8/4.9 or
thereabouts. It never happened before, but the prinkt has been there
since the 3.18 days, so possibly the test to trigger this message was
changed, or something else in the allocator changed such that the
situation started happening on these machines?
And, like I said, it is specific to our 730xd machines (but they are
all identical, so that could mean it's something like their specific
ram configuration is causing the allocator to hit this on these
machine but not on other machines in the cluster, I don't want to say
it's necessarily the model of chipset or CPU, there are other bits of
identicalness between these machines)"

In addition to /proc/meminfo, this problem also affects the slab
counters OOM/allocation failure info dumps, can cause early -ENOMEM from
overcommit protection, and miscalculate image size requirements during
suspend-to-disk.
This is because the patch in question switched the slab counters from
the zone level to the node level, but forgot to update the global
accessor functions to read the aggregate node data instead of the
aggregate zone data.
Use global_node_page_state() to access the global slab counters.

A while ago someone, and I cannot find the email just now, asked if we
could not implement the RECLAIM_FS inversion stuff with a 'fake' lock
like we use for other things like workqueues etc. I think this should
be possible which allows reducing the 'irq' states and will reduce the
amount of __bfs() lookups we do.
Removing the 1 IRQ state results in 4 less __bfs() walks per
dependency, improving lockdep performance. And by moving this
annotation out of the lockdep code it becomes easier for the mm people
to extend.

Commit:
af2c1401e6 ("mm: numa: guarantee that tlb_flush_pending updates are visible before page table updates")
added smp_mb__before_spinlock() to set_tlb_flush_pending(). I think we
can solve the same problem without this barrier.
If instead we mandate that mm_tlb_flush_pending() is used while
holding the PTL we're guaranteed to observe prior
set_tlb_flush_pending() instances.
For this to work we need to rework migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page()
a little and move the test up into do_huge_pmd_numa_page().
NOTE: this relies on flush_tlb_range() to guarantee:
(1) it ensures that prior page table updates are visible to the
page table walker and
(2) it ensures that subsequent memory accesses are only made
visible after the invalidation has completed
This is required for architectures that implement TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE
(arc, arm, arm64, mips, powerpc, s390, sparc, x86) or otherwise use
mm_tlb_flush_pending() in their page-table operations (arm, arm64,
x86).
This appears true for:
- arm (DSB ISB before and after),
- arm64 (DSB ISHST before, and DSB ISH after),
- powerpc (PTESYNC before and after),
- s390 and x86 TLB invalidate are serializing instructions
But I failed to understand the situation for:
- arc, mips, sparc
Now SPARC64 is a wee bit special in that flush_tlb_range() is a no-op
and it flushes the TLBs using arch_{enter,leave}_lazy_mmu_mode()
inside the PTL. It still needs to guarantee the PTL unlock happens
_after_ the invalidate completes.

Nadav Amit identified a theoritical race between page reclaim and
mprotect due to TLB flushes being batched outside of the PTL being held.
He described the race as follows:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
user accesses memory using RW PTE
[PTE now cached in TLB]
try_to_unmap_one()
==> ptep_get_and_clear()
==> set_tlb_ubc_flush_pending()
mprotect(addr, PROT_READ)
==> change_pte_range()
==> [ PTE non-present - no flush ]
user writes using cached RW PTE
...
try_to_unmap_flush()
The same type of race exists for reads when protecting for PROT_NONE and
also exists for operations that can leave an old TLB entry behind such
as munmap, mremap and madvise.
For some operations like mprotect, it's not necessarily a data integrity
issue but it is a correctness issue as there is a window where an
mprotect that limits access still allows access. For munmap, it's
potentially a data integrity issue although the race is massive as an
munmap, mmap and return to userspace must all complete between the
window when reclaim drops the PTL and flushes the TLB. However, it's
theoritically possible so handle this issue by flushing the mm if
reclaim is potentially currently batching TLB flushes.
Other instances where a flush is required for a present pte should be ok
as either the page lock is held preventing parallel reclaim or a page
reference count is elevated preventing a parallel free leading to
corruption. In the case of page_mkclean there isn't an obvious path
that userspace could take advantage of without using the operations that
are guarded by this patch. Other users such as gup as a race with
reclaim looks just at PTEs. huge page variants should be ok as they
don't race with reclaim. mincore only looks at PTEs. userfault also
should be ok as if a parallel reclaim takes place, it will either fault
the page back in or read some of the data before the flush occurs
triggering a fault.
Note that a variant of this patch was acked by Andy Lutomirski but this
was for the x86 parts on top of his PCID work which didn't make the 4.13
merge window as expected. His ack is dropped from this version and
there will be a follow-on patch on top of PCID that will include his

Commit 9a291a7c94 ("mm/hugetlb: report -EHWPOISON not -EFAULT when
FOLL_HWPOISON is specified") causes __get_user_pages to ignore certain
errors from follow_hugetlb_page. After such error, __get_user_pages
subsequently calls faultin_page on the same VMA and start address that
follow_hugetlb_page failed on instead of returning the error immediately
as it should.
In follow_hugetlb_page, when hugetlb_fault returns a value covered under
VM_FAULT_ERROR, follow_hugetlb_page returns it without setting nr_pages
to 0 as __get_user_pages expects in this case, which causes the
following to happen in __get_user_pages: the "while (nr_pages)" check
succeeds, we skip the "if (!vma..." check because we got a VMA the last
time around, we find no page with follow_page_mask, and we call
faultin_page, which calls hugetlb_fault for the second time.
This issue also slightly changes how __get_user_pages works. Before, it
only returned error if it had made no progress (i = 0). But now,
follow_hugetlb_page can clobber "i" with an error code since its new
return path doesn't check for progress. So if "i" is nonzero before a
failing call to follow_hugetlb_page, that indication of progress is lost
and __get_user_pages can return error even if some pages were
successfully pinned.
To fix this, change follow_hugetlb_page so that it updates nr_pages,
allowing __get_user_pages to fail immediately and restoring the "error
only if no progress" behavior to __get_user_pages.
Tested that __get_user_pages returns when expected on error from
hugetlb_fault in follow_hugetlb_page.

Marcelo added this i_size based optimization with a patch in 2004
(commitid is from the linux-history tree):
commit 765dad09b4ac101a32d87af2bb793c3060497d3c
Author: Marcelo Tosatti <marcelo.tosatti@cyclades.com>
Date: Tue Sep 7 17:51:17 2004 -0700
small wait_on_page_writeback_range() optimization
filemap_fdatawait() calls wait_on_page_writeback_range() with -1
as "end" parameter. This is not needed since we know the EOF
from the inode. Use that instead.
There may be races here, particularly with clustered or network
filesystems. It also seems like a bit of a layering violation since
we're operating on an address_space here, not an inode.
Finally, it's also questionable whether this optimization really helps
on workloads that we care about. Should we be optimizing for writeback
vs. truncate races in a codepath where we expect to wait anyway? It
doesn't seem worth the risk.
Remove this optimization from the filemap_fdatawait codepaths. This
means that filemap_fdatawait becomes a trivial wrapper around
filemap_fdatawait_range.

The simple, and expensive, way to find a free area is to iterate over
the entire bitmap until an area is found that fits the allocation size
and alignment. This patch makes use of an iterate that find an area to
check by using the block level contig hints. It will only return an area
that can fit the size and alignment request. If the request can fit
inside a block, it returns the first_free bit to start checking from to
see if it can be fulfilled prior to the contig hint. The pcpu_alloc_area
check has a bound of a block size added in case it is wrong.

The bitmap allocator must keep metadata consistent. The easiest way is
to scan after every allocation for each affected block and the entire
chunk. This is rather expensive.
The free path can take advantage of current contig hints to prevent
scanning within the start and end block. If a scan is needed, it can
be done by scanning backwards from the start and forwards from the end
to identify the entire free area this can be combined with. The blocks
can then be updated by some basic checks rather than complete block
scans.
A chunk scan happens when the freed area makes a page free, a block
free, or spans across blocks. This is necessary as the contig hint at
this point could span across blocks. The check uses the minimum of page
size and the block size to allow for variable sized blocks. There is a
tradeoff here with not updating after every free. It is possible a
contig hint in one block can be merged with the contig hint in the next
block. This means the contig hint can be off by up to a page. However,
if the chunk's contig hint is contained in one block, the contig hint
will be accurate.

This patch introduces the bitmap metadata blocks and adds the skeleton
of the code that will be used to maintain these blocks. Each chunk's
bitmap is made up of full metadata blocks. These blocks maintain basic
metadata to help prevent scanning unnecssarily to update hints. Full
scanning methods are used for the skeleton and will be replaced in the
coming patches. A number of helper functions are added as well to do
conversion of pages to blocks and manage offsets. Comments will be
updated as the final version of each function is added.
There exists a relationship between PAGE_SIZE, PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_SIZE,
the region size, and unit_size. Every chunk's region (including offsets)
is page aligned at the beginning to preserve alignment. The end is
aligned to LCM(PAGE_SIZE, PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_SIZE) to ensure that the end
can fit with the populated page map which is by page and every metadata
block is fully accounted for. The unit_size is already page aligned, but
must also be aligned with PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_SIZE to ensure full metadata
blocks.

The percpu memory allocator is experiencing scalability issues when
allocating and freeing large numbers of counters as in BPF.
Additionally, there is a corner case where iteration is triggered over
all chunks if the contig_hint is the right size, but wrong alignment.
This patch replaces the area map allocator with a basic bitmap allocator
implementation. Each subsequent patch will introduce new features and
replace full scanning functions with faster non-scanning options when
possible.
Implementation:
This patchset removes the area map allocator in favor of a bitmap
allocator backed by metadata blocks. The primary goal is to provide
consistency in performance and memory footprint with a focus on small
allocations (< 64 bytes). The bitmap removes the heavy memmove from the
freeing critical path and provides a consistent memory footprint. The
metadata blocks provide a bound on the amount of scanning required by
maintaining a set of hints.
In an effort to make freeing fast, the metadata is updated on the free
path if the new free area makes a page free, a block free, or spans
across blocks. This causes the chunk's contig hint to potentially be
smaller than what it could allocate by up to the smaller of a page or a
block. If the chunk's contig hint is contained within a block, a check
occurs and the hint is kept accurate. Metadata is always kept accurate
on allocation, so there will not be a situation where a chunk has a
later contig hint than available.
Evaluation:
I have primarily done testing against a simple workload of allocation of
1 million objects (2^20) of varying size. Deallocation was done by in
order, alternating, and in reverse. These numbers were collected after
rebasing ontop of a80099a152. I present the worst-case numbers here:
Area Map Allocator:
Object Size | Alloc Time (ms) | Free Time (ms)
----------------------------------------------
4B | 310 | 4770
16B | 557 | 1325
64B | 436 | 273
256B | 776 | 131
1024B | 3280 | 122
Bitmap Allocator:
Object Size | Alloc Time (ms) | Free Time (ms)
----------------------------------------------
4B | 490 | 70
16B | 515 | 75
64B | 610 | 80
256B | 950 | 100
1024B | 3520 | 200
This data demonstrates the inability for the area map allocator to
handle less than ideal situations. In the best case of reverse
deallocation, the area map allocator was able to perform within range
of the bitmap allocator. In the worst case situation, freeing took
nearly 5 seconds for 1 million 4-byte objects. The bitmap allocator
dramatically improves the consistency of the free path. The small
allocations performed nearly identical regardless of the freeing
pattern.
While it does add to the allocation latency, the allocation scenario
here is optimal for the area map allocator. The area map allocator runs
into trouble when it is allocating in chunks where the latter half is
full. It is difficult to replicate this, so I present a variant where
the pages are second half filled. Freeing was done sequentially. Below
are the numbers for this scenario:
Area Map Allocator:
Object Size | Alloc Time (ms) | Free Time (ms)
----------------------------------------------
4B | 4118 | 4892
16B | 1651 | 1163
64B | 598 | 285
256B | 771 | 158
1024B | 3034 | 160
Bitmap Allocator:
Object Size | Alloc Time (ms) | Free Time (ms)
----------------------------------------------
4B | 481 | 67
16B | 506 | 69
64B | 636 | 75
256B | 892 | 90
1024B | 3262 | 147
The data shows a parabolic curve of performance for the area map
allocator. This is due to the memmove operation being the dominant cost
with the lower object sizes as more objects are packed in a chunk and at
higher object sizes, the traversal of the chunk slots is the dominating
cost. The bitmap allocator suffers this problem as well. The above data
shows the inability to scale for the allocation path with the area map
allocator and that the bitmap allocator demonstrates consistent
performance in general.
The second problem of additional scanning can result in the area map
allocator completing in 52 minutes when trying to allocate 1 million
4-byte objects with 8-byte alignment. The same workload takes
approximately 16 seconds to complete for the bitmap allocator.
V2:
Fixed a bug in pcpu_alloc_first_chunk end_offset was setting the bitmap
using bytes instead of bits.
Added a comment to pcpu_cnt_pop_pages to explain bitmap_weight.

This patch increases the minimum allocation size of percpu memory to
4-bytes. This change will help minimize the metadata overhead
associated with the bitmap allocator. The assumption is that most
allocations will be of objects or structs greater than 2 bytes with
integers or longs being used rather than shorts.
The first chunk regions are now aligned with the minimum allocation
size. The reserved region is expected to be set as a multiple of the
minimum allocation size. The static region is aligned up and the delta
is removed from the dynamic size. This works because the dynamic size is
increased to be page aligned. If the static size is not minimum
allocation size aligned, then there must be a gap that is added to the
dynamic size. The dynamic size will never be smaller than the set value.

The populated bitmap represents the state of the pages the chunk serves.
Prior, the bitmap was marked completely used as the first chunk was
allocated and immutable. This is misleading because the first chunk may
not be completely filled. Additionally, with moving the base_addr up in
the previous patch, the population check no longer corresponds to what
was being checked.
This patch modifies the population map to be only the number of pages
the region serves and to make what it was checking correspond correctly
again. The change is to remove any misunderstanding between the size of
the populated bitmap and the actual size of it. The work function page
iterators now use nr_pages for the check rather than pcpu_unit_pages
because nr_populated is now chunk specific. Without this, the work
function would try to populate the remainder of these chunks despite it
not serving any more than nr_pages when nr_pages is set less than

Originally, the first chunk was served by one or two chunks, each
given a region they are responsible for. Despite this, the arithmetic
was based off of the true base_addr of the chunk making it be overly
inclusive.
This patch moves the base_addr of chunks that are responsible for the
first chunk. The base_addr must remain page aligned to keep the
address alignment correct, so it is the beginning of the region served
page aligned down. start_offset holds where the region served begins
from this new base_addr.
The corresponding percpu address checks are modified to be more specific
as a result. The first chunk considers only the dynamic region and both
first chunk and reserved chunk checks ignore the static region. The
static region addresses should never be passed into the allocator. There
is no impact here besides distinguishing the first chunk and making the
checks specific.
The percpu pointer to physical address is left intact as addresses are
not given out in the non-allocated portion of percpu memory.

For now, the only user of the flag is cgroup v2 "cgroup.procs" file
which no longer needs to skip non-leader tasks in cgroup_procs_next().
Note that cgroup v1 "cgroup.procs" can't use the group leader walk as
v1 "cgroup.procs" doesn't mean "list all thread group leaders in the

The header comment for percpu memory is a little hard to parse and is
not super clear about how the first chunk is managed. This adds a
little more clarity to the situation.
There is also quite a bit of tricky logic in the pcpu_build_alloc_info.
This adds a restructure of a comment to add a little more information.
Unfortunately, you will still have to piece together a handful of other
comments too, but should help direct you to the meaningful comments.

Jörn Engel noticed that the expand_upwards() function might not return
-ENOMEM in case the requested address is (unsigned long)-PAGE_SIZE and
if the architecture didn't defined TASK_SIZE as multiple of PAGE_SIZE.
Affected architectures are arm, frv, m68k, blackfin, h8300 and xtensa
which all define TASK_SIZE as 0xffffffff, but since none of those have
an upwards-growing stack we currently have no actual issue.
Nevertheless let's fix this just in case any of the architectures with
an upward-growing stack (currently parisc, metag and partly ia64) define
TASK_SIZE similar.

Currently the writeback statistics code uses a percpu counters to hold
various statistics. Furthermore we have 2 families of functions - those
which disable local irq and those which doesn't and whose names begin
with double underscore. However, they both end up calling
__add_wb_stats which in turn calls percpu_counter_add_batch which is
already irq-safe.
Exploiting this fact allows to eliminated the __wb_* functions since
they don't add any further protection than we already have.
Furthermore, refactor the wb_* function to call __add_wb_stat directly
without the irq-disabling dance. This will likely result in better
runtime of code which deals with modifying the stat counters.
While at it also document why percpu_counter_add_batch is in fact
preempt and irq-safe since at least 3 people got confused.

Page migration (for memory hotplug, soft_offline_page or mbind) needs to
allocate a new memory. This can trigger an oom killer if the target
memory is depleated. Although quite unlikely, still possible,
especially for the memory hotplug (offlining of memoery).
Up to now we didn't really have reasonable means to back off.
__GFP_NORETRY can fail just too easily and __GFP_THISNODE sticks to a
single node and that is not suitable for all callers.
But now that we have __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL we should use it. It is
preferable to fail the migration than disrupt the system by killing some
processes.

Now that __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL has a reasonable semantic regardless of the
request size we can drop the hackish implementation for !costly orders.
__GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL retries as long as the reclaim makes a forward
progress and backs of when we are out of memory for the requested size.
Therefore we do not need to enforce__GFP_NORETRY for !costly orders just
to silent the oom killer anymore.

__GFP_REPEAT was designed to allow retry-but-eventually-fail semantic to
the page allocator. This has been true but only for allocations
requests larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER. It has been always
ignored for smaller sizes. This is a bit unfortunate because there is
no way to express the same semantic for those requests and they are
considered too important to fail so they might end up looping in the
page allocator for ever, similarly to GFP_NOFAIL requests.
Now that the whole tree has been cleaned up and accidental or misled
usage of __GFP_REPEAT flag has been removed for !costly requests we can
give the original flag a better name and more importantly a more useful
semantic. Let's rename it to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL which tells the user
that the allocator would try really hard but there is no promise of a
success. This will work independent of the order and overrides the
default allocator behavior. Page allocator users have several levels of
guarantee vs. cost options (take GFP_KERNEL as an example)
- GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_RECLAIM - optimistic allocation without _any_
attempt to free memory at all. The most light weight mode which even
doesn't kick the background reclaim. Should be used carefully because
it might deplete the memory and the next user might hit the more
aggressive reclaim
- GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (or GFP_NOWAIT)- optimistic
allocation without any attempt to free memory from the current
context but can wake kswapd to reclaim memory if the zone is below
the low watermark. Can be used from either atomic contexts or when
the request is a performance optimization and there is another
fallback for a slow path.
- (GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_HIGH) & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (aka GFP_ATOMIC) -
non sleeping allocation with an expensive fallback so it can access
some portion of memory reserves. Usually used from interrupt/bh
context with an expensive slow path fallback.
- GFP_KERNEL - both background and direct reclaim are allowed and the
_default_ page allocator behavior is used. That means that !costly
allocation requests are basically nofail but there is no guarantee of
that behavior so failures have to be checked properly by callers
(e.g. OOM killer victim is allowed to fail currently).
- GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NORETRY - overrides the default allocator behavior
and all allocation requests fail early rather than cause disruptive
reclaim (one round of reclaim in this implementation). The OOM killer
is not invoked.
- GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL - overrides the default allocator
behavior and all allocation requests try really hard. The request
will fail if the reclaim cannot make any progress. The OOM killer
won't be triggered.
- GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOFAIL - overrides the default allocator behavior
and all allocation requests will loop endlessly until they succeed.
This might be really dangerous especially for larger orders.
Existing users of __GFP_REPEAT are changed to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL
because they already had their semantic. No new users are added.
__alloc_pages_slowpath is changed to bail out for __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL if
there is no progress and we have already passed the OOM point.
This means that all the reclaim opportunities have been exhausted except
the most disruptive one (the OOM killer) and a user defined fallback
behavior is more sensible than keep retrying in the page allocator.

For some unaligned memory accesses we have to check additional byte of
the shadow memory. Currently we load that byte speculatively to have
only single load + branch on the optimistic fast path.
However, this approach has some downsides:
- It's unaligned access, so this prevents porting KASAN on
architectures which doesn't support unaligned accesses.
- We have to map additional shadow page to prevent crash if speculative
load happens near the end of the mapped memory. This would
significantly complicate upcoming memory hotplug support.
I wasn't able to notice any performance degradation with this patch. So
these speculative loads is just a pain with no gain, let's remove them.

Andrey reported a potential deadlock with the memory hotplug lock and
the cpu hotplug lock.
The reason is that memory hotplug takes the memory hotplug lock and then
calls stop_machine() which calls get_online_cpus(). That's the reverse
lock order to get_online_cpus(); get_online_mems(); in mm/slub_common.c
The problem has been there forever. The reason why this was never
reported is that the cpu hotplug locking had this homebrewn recursive
reader writer semaphore construct which due to the recursion evaded the
full lock dep coverage. The memory hotplug code copied that construct
verbatim and therefor has similar issues.
Three steps to fix this:
1) Convert the memory hotplug locking to a per cpu rwsem so the
potential issues get reported proper by lockdep.
2) Lock the online cpus in mem_hotplug_begin() before taking the memory
hotplug rwsem and use stop_machine_cpuslocked() in the page_alloc
code to avoid recursive locking.
3) The cpu hotpluck locking in #2 causes a recursive locking of the cpu
hotplug lock via __offline_pages() -> lru_add_drain_all(). Solve this
by invoking lru_add_drain_all_cpuslocked() instead.

The rework of the cpu hotplug locking unearthed potential deadlocks with
the memory hotplug locking code.
The solution for these is to rework the memory hotplug locking code as
well and take the cpu hotplug lock before the memory hotplug lock in
mem_hotplug_begin(), but this will cause a recursive locking of the cpu
hotplug lock when the memory hotplug code calls lru_add_drain_all().
Split out the inner workings of lru_add_drain_all() into
lru_add_drain_all_cpuslocked() so this function can be invoked from the
memory hotplug code with the cpu hotplug lock held.

Commit 1be7107fbe ("mm: larger stack guard gap, between vmas") has
introduced a regression in some rust and Java environments which are
trying to implement their own stack guard page. They are punching a new
MAP_FIXED mapping inside the existing stack Vma.
This will confuse expand_{downwards,upwards} into thinking that the
stack expansion would in fact get us too close to an existing non-stack
vma which is a correct behavior wrt safety. It is a real regression on
the other hand.
Let's work around the problem by considering PROT_NONE mapping as a part
of the stack. This is a gros hack but overflowing to such a mapping
would trap anyway an we only can hope that usespace knows what it is
doing and handle it propely.

The align_offset parameter is used by bitmap_find_next_zero_area_off()
to represent the offset of map's base from the previous alignment
boundary; the function ensures that the returned index, plus the
align_offset, honors the specified align_mask.
The logic introduced by commit b5be83e308 ("mm: cma: align to physical
address, not CMA region position") has the cma driver calculate the
offset to the *next* alignment boundary. In most cases, the base
alignment is greater than that specified when making allocations,
resulting in a zero offset whether we align up or down. In the example
given with the commit, the base alignment (8MB) was half the requested
alignment (16MB) so the math also happened to work since the offset is
8MB in both directions. However, when requesting allocations with an
alignment greater than twice that of the base, the returned index would
not be correctly aligned.
Also, the align_order arguments of cma_bitmap_aligned_mask() and
cma_bitmap_aligned_offset() should not be negative so the argument type
was made unsigned.

get_cpu_var() disables preemption and returns the per-CPU version of the
variable. Disabling preemption is useful to ensure atomic access to the
variable within the critical section.
In this case however, after the per-CPU version of the variable is
obtained the ->free_lock is acquired. For that reason it seems the raw
accessor could be used. It only seems that ->slots_ret should be
retested (because with disabled preemption this variable can not be set
to NULL otherwise).
This popped up during PREEMPT-RT testing because it tries to take
spinlocks in a preempt disabled section. In RT, spinlocks can sleep.

Since current_order starts as MAX_ORDER-1 and is then only decremented,
the second half of the loop condition seems superfluous. However, if
order is 0, we may decrement current_order past 0, making it UINT_MAX.
This is obviously too subtle ([1], [2]).
Since we need to add some comment anyway, change the two variables to
signed, making the counting-down for loop look more familiar, and
apparently also making gcc generate slightly smaller code.

new_page is yet another duplication of the migration callback which has
to handle hugetlb migration specially. We can safely use the generic
new_page_nodemask for the same purpose.
Please note that gigantic hugetlb pages do not need any special handling
because alloc_huge_page_nodemask will make sure to check pages in all
per node pools. The reason this was done previously was that
alloc_huge_page_node treated NO_NUMA_NODE and a specific node
differently and so alloc_huge_page_node(nid) would check on this
specific node.

alloc_huge_page_nodemask tries to allocate from any numa node in the
allowed node mask starting from lower numa nodes. This might lead to
filling up those low NUMA nodes while others are not used. We can
reduce this risk by introducing a concept of the preferred node similar
to what we have in the regular page allocator. We will start allocating
from the preferred nid and then iterate over all allowed nodes in the
zonelist order until we try them all.
This is mimicing the page allocator logic except it operates on per-node
mempools. dequeue_huge_page_vma already does this so distill the
zonelist logic into a more generic dequeue_huge_page_nodemask and use it
in alloc_huge_page_nodemask.
This will allow us to use proper per numa distance fallback also for
alloc_huge_page_node which can use alloc_huge_page_nodemask now and we
can get rid of alloc_huge_page_node helper which doesn't have any user
anymore.

Patch series "mm, hugetlb: allow proper node fallback dequeue".
While working on a hugetlb migration issue addressed in a separate
patchset[1] I have noticed that the hugetlb allocations from the
preallocated pool are quite subotimal.
[1] //lkml.kernel.org/r/20170608074553.22152-1-mhocko@kernel.org
There is no fallback mechanism implemented and no notion of preferred
node. I have tried to work around it but Vlastimil was right to push
back for a more robust solution. It seems that such a solution is to
reuse zonelist approach we use for the page alloctor.
This series has 3 patches. The first one tries to make hugetlb
allocation layers more clear. The second one implements the zonelist
hugetlb pool allocation and introduces a preferred node semantic which
is used by the migration callbacks. The last patch is a clean up.
This patch (of 3):
Hugetlb allocation path for fresh huge pages is unnecessarily complex
and it mixes different interfaces between layers.
__alloc_buddy_huge_page is the central place to perform a new
allocation. It checks for the hugetlb overcommit and then relies on
__hugetlb_alloc_buddy_huge_page to invoke the page allocator. This is
all good except that __alloc_buddy_huge_page pushes vma and address down
the callchain and so __hugetlb_alloc_buddy_huge_page has to deal with
two different allocation modes - one for memory policy and other node
specific (or to make it more obscure node non-specific) requests.
This just screams for a reorganization.
This patch pulls out all the vma specific handling up to
__alloc_buddy_huge_page_with_mpol where it belongs.
__alloc_buddy_huge_page will get nodemask argument and
__hugetlb_alloc_buddy_huge_page will become a trivial wrapper over the
page allocator.
In short:
__alloc_buddy_huge_page_with_mpol - memory policy handling
__alloc_buddy_huge_page - overcommit handling and accounting
__hugetlb_alloc_buddy_huge_page - page allocator layer
Also note that __hugetlb_alloc_buddy_huge_page and its cpuset retry loop
is not really needed because the page allocator already handles the
cpusets update.
Finally __hugetlb_alloc_buddy_huge_page had a special case for node
specific allocations (when no policy is applied and there is a node
given). This has relied on __GFP_THISNODE to not fallback to a different
node. alloc_huge_page_node is the only caller which relies on this
behavior so move the __GFP_THISNODE there.
Not only does this remove quite some code it also should make those
layers easier to follow and clear wrt responsibilities.

During the debugging of the problem described in
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/5/17/542 and fixed by Tetsuo Handa in
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/5/19/383 , I've found that the existing debug
output is not really useful to understand issues related to the oom
reaper.
So, I assume, that adding some tracepoints might help with debugging of
similar issues.
Trace the following events:
1) a process is marked as an oom victim,
2) a process is added to the oom reaper list,
3) the oom reaper starts reaping process's mm,
4) the oom reaper finished reaping,
5) the oom reaper skips reaping.
How it works in practice? Below is an example which show how the problem
mentioned above can be found: one process is added twice to the
oom_reaper list:
$ cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
$ echo "oom:mark_victim" > set_event
$ echo "oom:wake_reaper" >> set_event
$ echo "oom:skip_task_reaping" >> set_event
$ echo "oom:start_task_reaping" >> set_event
$ echo "oom:finish_task_reaping" >> set_event
$ cat trace_pipe

The condition checking for THP straddling end of invalidated range is
wrong - it checks 'index' against 'end' but 'index' has been already
advanced to point to the end of THP and thus the condition can never be
true. As a result THP straddling 'end' has been fully invalidated.
Given the nature of invalidate_mapping_pages(), this could be only
performance issue. In fact, we are lucky the condition is wrong because
if it was ever true, we'd leave locked page behind.
Fix the condition checking for THP straddling 'end' and also properly
unlock the page. Also update the comment before the condition to
explain why we decide not to invalidate the page as it was not clear to
me and I had to ask Kirill.

Commit 394e31d2ce ("mem-hotplug: alloc new page from a nearest
neighbor node when mem-offline") has duplicated a large part of
alloc_migrate_target with some hotplug specific special casing.
To be more precise it tried to enfore the allocation from a different
node than the original page. As a result the two function diverged in
their shared logic, e.g. the hugetlb allocation strategy.
Let's unify the two and express different NUMA requirements by the given
nodemask. new_node_page will simply exclude the node it doesn't care
about and alloc_migrate_target will use all the available nodes.
alloc_migrate_target will then learn to migrate hugetlb pages more
sanely and use preallocated pool when possible.
Please note that alloc_migrate_target used to call alloc_page resp.
alloc_pages_current so the memory policy of the current context which is
quite strange when we consider that it is used in the context of
alloc_contig_range which just tries to migrate pages which stand in the
way.

new_node_page will try to use the origin's next NUMA node as the
migration destination for hugetlb pages. If such a node doesn't have
any preallocated pool it falls back to __alloc_buddy_huge_page_no_mpol
to allocate a surplus page instead. This is quite subotpimal for any
configuration when hugetlb pages are no distributed to all NUMA nodes
evenly. Say we have a hotplugable node 4 and spare hugetlb pages are
node 0
/sys/devices/system/node/node0/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:10000
/sys/devices/system/node/node1/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:0
/sys/devices/system/node/node2/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:0
/sys/devices/system/node/node3/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:0

/sys/devices/system/node/node5/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:0
/sys/devices/system/node/node6/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:0
/sys/devices/system/node/node7/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:0
Now we consume the whole pool on node 4 and try to offline this node.
All the allocated pages should be moved to node0 which has enough
preallocated pages to hold them. With the current implementation
offlining very likely fails because hugetlb allocations during runtime
are much less reliable.
Fix this by reusing the nodemask which excludes migration source and try
to find a first node which has a page in the preallocated pool first and
fall back to __alloc_buddy_huge_page_no_mpol only when the whole pool is
consumed.

new_node_page tries to allocate the target page on a different NUMA node
than the source page. This makes sense in most cases during the hotplug
because we are likely to offline the whole numa node. But there are
cases where there are no other nodes to fallback (e.g. when offlining
parts of the only existing node) and we have to fallback to allocating
from the source node. The current code does that but it can be
simplified by checking the nmask and updating it before we even try to
allocate rather than special casing it.
This patch shouldn't introduce any functional change.

movable_node kernel parameter allows making hotpluggable NUMA nodes to
put all the hotplugable memory into movable zone which allows more or

a special udev rule to echo online_movable to all memblocks belonging to
such a node which is rather clumsy. Not to mention this is inconsistent
as well because what ended up in the movable zone during the boot will
end up in a kernel zone after hotremove & hotadd without special care.
It would be nice to reuse memblock_is_hotpluggable but the runtime
hotplug doesn't have that information available because the boot and
hotplug paths are not shared and it would be really non trivial to make
them use the same code path because the runtime hotplug doesn't play
with the memblock allocator at all.
Teach move_pfn_range that MMOP_ONLINE_KEEP can use the movable zone if
movable_node is enabled and the range doesn't overlap with the existing
normal zone. This should provide a reasonable default onlining
strategy.
Strictly speaking the semantic is not identical with the boot time
initialization because find_zone_movable_pfns_for_nodes covers only the
hotplugable range as described by the BIOS/FW. From my experience this
is usually a full node though (except for Node0 which is special and
never goes away completely). If this turns out to be a problem in the
real life we can tweak the code to store hotplug flag into memblocks but
let's keep this simple now.

When migrating a transparent hugepage, migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page
guards itself against a concurrent fastgup of the page by checking that
the page count is equal to 2 before and after installing the new pmd.
If the page count changes, then the pmd is reverted back to the original
entry, however there is a small window where the new (possibly writable)
pmd is installed and the underlying page could be written by userspace.
Restoring the old pmd could therefore result in loss of data.
This patch fixes the problem by freezing the page count whilst updating
the page tables, which protects against a concurrent fastgup without the
need to restore the old pmd in the failure case (since the page count
can no longer change under our feet).

When the user specifies too many hugepages or an invalid
default_hugepagesz the communication to the user is implicit in the
allocation message. This patch adds a warning when the desired page
count is not allocated and prints an error when the default_hugepagesz
is invalid on boot.
During boot hugepages will allocate until there is a fraction of the
hugepage size left. That is, we allocate until either the request is
satisfied or memory for the pages is exhausted. When memory for the
pages is exhausted, it will most likely lead to the system failing with
the OOM manager not finding enough (or anything) to kill (unless you're
using really big hugepages in the order of 100s of MB or in the GBs).
The user will most likely see the OOM messages much later in the boot
sequence than the implicitly stated message. Worse yet, you may even
get an OOM for each processor which causes many pages of OOMs on modern
systems. Although these messages will be printed earlier than the OOM
messages, at least giving the user errors and warnings will highlight
the configuration as an issue. I'm trying to point the user in the
right direction by providing a more robust statement of what is failing.
During the sysctl or echo command, the user can check the results much
easier than if the system hangs during boot and the scenario of having
nothing to OOM for kernel memory is highly unlikely.
Mike said:
"Before sending out this patch, I asked Liam off list why he was doing
it. Was it something he just thought would be useful? Or, was there
some type of user situation/need. He said that he had been called in
to assist on several occasions when a system OOMed during boot. In
almost all of these situations, the user had grossly misconfigured
huge pages.
DB users want to pre-allocate just the right amount of huge pages, but
sometimes they can be really off. In such situations, the huge page
init code just allocates as many huge pages as it can and reports the
number allocated. There is no indication that it quit allocating
because it ran out of memory. Of course, a user could compare the
number in the message to what they requested on the command line to
determine if they got all the huge pages they requested. The thought
was that it would be useful to at least flag this situation. That way,
the user might be able to better relate the huge page allocation
failure to the OOM.
I'm not sure if the e-mail discussion made it obvious that this is
something he has seen on several occasions.
I see Michal's point that this will only flag the situation where
someone configures huge pages very badly. And, a more extensive look
at the situation of misconfiguring huge pages might be in order. But,
this has happened on several occasions which led to the creation of
this patch"

While activating a CMA area we check to make sure that all the PFNs in
the range are inside the same zone. This is a requirement for
alloc_contig_range() to work. Any CMA area failing the check is
disabled for good. This happens silently right now making all future
cma_alloc() allocations failure inevitable.
Here we add an error message stating that the CMA area could not be
activated which makes it easier to explain any future cma_alloc()
failures on it. While in there, change the bail out goto label from
'err' to 'not_in_zone' which makes more sense.

Make @root exclusive in mem_cgroup_low; it is never considered low when
looked at directly and is not checked when traversing the tree. In
effect, @root is handled identically to how root_mem_cgroup was
previously handled by mem_cgroup_low.
If @root is not excluded from the checks, a cgroup underneath @root will
never be considered low during targeted reclaim of @root, e.g. due to
memory.current > memory.high, unless @root is misconfigured to have
memory.low > memory.high.
Excluding @root enables using memory.low to prioritize memory usage
between cgroups within a subtree of the hierarchy that is limited by
memory.high or memory.max, e.g. when ROOT owns @root's controls but
delegates the @root directory to a USER so that USER can create and
administer children of @root.
For example, given cgroup A with children B and C:
A
/ \
B C
and
1. A/memory.current > A/memory.high
2. A/B/memory.current < A/B/memory.low
3. A/C/memory.current >= A/C/memory.low
As 'A' is high, i.e. triggers reclaim from 'A', and 'B' is low, we
should reclaim from 'C' until 'A' is no longer high or until we can no
longer reclaim from 'C'. If 'A', i.e. @root, isn't excluded by
mem_cgroup_low when reclaming from 'A', then 'B' won't be considered low
and we will reclaim indiscriminately from both 'B' and 'C'.
Here is the test I used to confirm the bug and the patch.

PR_SET_THP_DISABLE has a rather subtle semantic. It doesn't affect any
existing mapping because it only updated mm->def_flags which is a
template for new mappings.
The mappings created after prctl(PR_SET_THP_DISABLE) have VM_NOHUGEPAGE
flag set. This can be quite surprising for all those applications which
do not do prctl(); fork() & exec() and want to control their own THP
behavior.
Another usecase when the immediate semantic of the prctl might be useful
is a combination of pre- and post-copy migration of containers with
CRIU. In this case CRIU populates a part of a memory region with data
that was saved during the pre-copy stage. Afterwards, the region is
registered with userfaultfd and CRIU expects to get page faults for the
parts of the region that were not yet populated. However, khugepaged
collapses the pages and the expected page faults do not occur.
In more general case, the prctl(PR_SET_THP_DISABLE) could be used as a
temporary mechanism for enabling/disabling THP process wide.
Implementation wise, a new MMF_DISABLE_THP flag is added. This flag is
tested when decision whether to use huge pages is taken either during
page fault of at the time of THP collapse.
It should be noted, that the new implementation makes PR_SET_THP_DISABLE
master override to any per-VMA setting, which was not the case
previously.

By default, vmpressure events are not pass-through, i.e. they propagate
up through the memcg hierarchy until an event notifier is found for any
threshold level.
This presents a difficulty when a thread waiting on a read(2) for a
vmpressure event cannot distinguish between local memory pressure and
memory pressure in a descendant memcg, especially when that thread may
not control the memcg hierarchy.
Consider a user-controlled child memcg with a smaller limit than a
top-level memcg controlled by the "Activity Manager" specified in
Documentation/cgroup-v1/memory.txt. It may register for memory pressure
notification for descendant memcgs to make a policy decision: oom kill a
low priority job, increase the limit, decrease other limits, etc. If it
registers for memory pressure notification on the top-level memcg, it
currently cannot distinguish between memory pressure in its own memcg or
a descendant memcg, which is user-controlled.
Conversely, if a user registers for memory pressure notification on
their own descendant memcg, the Activity Manager does not receive any
pressure notification for that child memcg hierarchy. Vmpressure events
are not received for ancestor memcgs if the memcg experiencing pressure
have notifiers registered, perhaps outside the knowledge of the thread
waiting on read(2) at the top level.
Both of these are consequences of vmpressure notification not being
pass-through.
This implements a pass-through behavior for vmpressure events. When
writing to control.event_control, vmpressure event handlers may
optionally specify a mode. There are two new modes:
- "hierarchy": always propagate memory pressure events up the hierarchy
regardless if descendant memcgs have their own notifiers registered,
and
- "local": only receive notifications when the memcg for which the
event is registered experiences memory pressure.
Of course, processes may register for one notification of "low,local",
for example, and another for "low".
If no mode is specified, the current behavior is maintained for
backwards compatibility.
See the change to Documentation/cgroup-v1/memory.txt for full
specification.

Currently me_huge_page() relies on dequeue_hwpoisoned_huge_page() to
keep the error hugepage away from the system, which is OK but not good
enough because the hugepage still has a refcount and unpoison doesn't
work on the error hugepage (PageHWPoison flags are cleared but pages are
still leaked.) And there's "wasting health subpages" issue too. This
patch reworks on me_huge_page() to solve these issues.
For hugetlb file, recently we have truncating code so let's use it in
hugetlbfs specific ->error_remove_page().
For anonymous hugepage, it's helpful to dissolve the error page after
freeing it into free hugepage list. Migration entry and PageHWPoison in
the head page prevent the access to it.
TODO: dissolve_free_huge_page() can fail but we don't considered it yet.
It's not critical (and at least no worse that now) because in such case
the error hugepage just stays in free hugepage list without being
dissolved. By virtue of PageHWPoison in head page, it's never allocated
to processes.

This patch solves this issue by dissolving source hugepages into buddy.
As done in previous patch, PageHWPoison is set only on a head page of
the error hugepage. Then in dissoliving we move the PageHWPoison flag
to the raw error page so that all healthy subpages return back to buddy.

Patch series "mm: hwpoison: fixlet for hugetlb migration".
This patchset updates the hwpoison/hugetlb code to address 2 reported
issues.
One is madvise(MADV_HWPOISON) failure reported by Intel's lkp robot (see
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170417055948.GM31394@yexl-desktop.) First
half was already fixed in mainline, and another half about hugetlb cases
are solved in this series.
Another issue is "narrow-down error affected region into a single 4kB
page instead of a whole hugetlb page" issue, which was tried by Anshuman
(http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170420110627.12307-1-khandual@linux.vnet.ibm.com)
and I updated it to apply it more widely.
This patch (of 9):
We no longer use MIGRATE_ISOLATE to prevent reuse of hwpoison hugepages
as we did before. So current dequeue_huge_page_node() doesn't work as
intended because it still uses is_migrate_isolate_page() for this check.
This patch fixes it with PageHWPoison flag.

The purpose of the code that commit 623762517e ("revert 'mm: vmscan:
do not swap anon pages just because free+file is low'") reintroduces is
to prefer swapping anonymous memory rather than trashing the file lru.
If the anonymous inactive lru for the set of eligible zones is
considered low, however, or the length of the list for the given reclaim
priority does not allow for effective anonymous-only reclaiming, then
avoid forcing SCAN_ANON. Forcing SCAN_ANON will end up thrashing the
small list and leave unreclaimed memory on the file lrus.
If the inactive list is insufficient, fallback to balanced reclaim so
the file lru doesn't remain untouched.

Since commit 3bc48f96cf ("mm, page_alloc: split smallest stolen page
in fallback") we pick the smallest (but sufficient) page of all that
have been stolen from a pageblock of different migratetype. However,
there are cases when we decide not to steal the whole pageblock.
Practically in the current implementation it means that we are trying to
fallback for a MIGRATE_MOVABLE allocation of order X, go through the
freelists from MAX_ORDER-1 down to X, and find free page of order Y. If
Y is less than pageblock_order / 2, we decide not to steal all pages
from the pageblock. When Y > X, it means we are potentially splitting a
larger page than we need, as there might be other pages of order Z,
where X <= Z < Y. Since Y is already too small to steal whole
pageblock, picking smallest available Z will result in the same decision
and we avoid splitting a higher-order page in a MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE or
MIGRATE_RECLAIMABLE pageblock.
This patch therefore changes the fallback algorithm so that in the
situation described above, we switch the fallback search strategy to go
from order X upwards to find the smallest suitable fallback. In theory
there shouldn't be a downside of this change wrt fragmentation.
This has been tested with mmtests' stress-highalloc performing
GFP_KERNEL order-4 allocations, here is the relevant extfrag tracepoint
statistics:
4.12.0-rc2 4.12.0-rc2
1-kernel4 2-kernel4
Page alloc extfrag event 25640976 69680977
Extfrag fragmenting 25621086 69661364
Extfrag fragmenting for unmovable 74409 73204
Extfrag fragmenting unmovable placed with movable 69003 67684
Extfrag fragmenting unmovable placed with reclaim. 5406 5520
Extfrag fragmenting for reclaimable 6398 8467
Extfrag fragmenting reclaimable placed with movable 869 884
Extfrag fragmenting reclaimable placed with unmov. 5529 7583
Extfrag fragmenting for movable 25540279 69579693
Since we force movable allocations to steal the smallest available page
(which we then practially always split), we steal less per fallback, so
the number of fallbacks increases and steals potentially happen from
different pageblocks. This is however not an issue for movable pages
that can be compacted.
Importantly, the "unmovable placed with movable" statistics is lower,
which is the result of less fragmentation in the unmovable pageblocks.
The effect on reclaimable allocation is a bit unclear.

For fast flash disk, async IO could introduce overhead because of
context switch. block-mq now supports IO poll, which improves
performance and latency a lot. swapin is a good place to use this
technique, because the task is waiting for the swapin page to continue
execution.
In my virtual machine, directly read 4k data from a NVMe with iopoll is
about 60% better than that without poll. With iopoll support in swapin
patch, my microbenchmark (a task does random memory write) is about
10%~25% faster. CPU utilization increases a lot though, 2x and even 3x
CPU utilization. This will depend on disk speed.
While iopoll in swapin isn't intended for all usage cases, it's a win
for latency sensistive workloads with high speed swap disk. block layer
has knob to control poll in runtime. If poll isn't enabled in block
layer, there should be no noticeable change in swapin.
I got a chance to run the same test in a NVMe with DRAM as the media.
In simple fio IO test, blkpoll boosts 50% performance in single thread
test and ~20% in 8 threads test. So this is the base line. In above
swap test, blkpoll boosts ~27% performance in single thread test.
blkpoll uses 2x CPU time though.
If we enable hybid polling, the performance gain has very slight drop
but CPU time is only 50% worse than that without blkpoll. Also we can
adjust parameter of hybid poll, with it, the CPU time penality is
reduced further. In 8 threads test, blkpoll doesn't help though. The
performance is similar to that without blkpoll, but cpu utilization is
similar too. There is lock contention in swap path. The cpu time
spending on blkpoll isn't high. So overall, blkpoll swapin isn't worse
than that without it.
The swapin readahead might read several pages in in the same time and
form a big IO request. Since the IO will take longer time, it doesn't
make sense to do poll, so the patch only does iopoll for single page
swapin.

Pull Writeback error handling updates from Jeff Layton:
"This pile represents the bulk of the writeback error handling fixes
that I have for this cycle. Some of the earlier patches in this pile
may look trivial but they are prerequisites for later patches in the
series.
The aim of this set is to improve how we track and report writeback
errors to userland. Most applications that care about data integrity
will periodically call fsync/fdatasync/msync to ensure that their
writes have made it to the backing store.
For a very long time, we have tracked writeback errors using two flags
in the address_space: AS_EIO and AS_ENOSPC. Those flags are set when a
writeback error occurs (via mapping_set_error) and are cleared as a
side-effect of filemap_check_errors (as you noted yesterday). This
model really sucks for userland.
Only the first task to call fsync (or msync or fdatasync) will see the
error. Any subsequent task calling fsync on a file will get back 0
(unless another writeback error occurs in the interim). If I have
several tasks writing to a file and calling fsync to ensure that their
writes got stored, then I need to have them coordinate with one
another. That's difficult enough, but in a world of containerized
setups that coordination may even not be possible.
But wait...it gets worse!
The calls to filemap_check_errors can be buried pretty far down in the
call stack, and there are internal callers of filemap_write_and_wait
and the like that also end up clearing those errors. Many of those
callers ignore the error return from that function or return it to
userland at nonsensical times (e.g. truncate() or stat()). If I get
back -EIO on a truncate, there is no reason to think that it was
because some previous writeback failed, and a subsequent fsync() will
(incorrectly) return 0.
This pile aims to do three things:
1) ensure that when a writeback error occurs that that error will be
reported to userland on a subsequent fsync/fdatasync/msync call,
regardless of what internal callers are doing
2) report writeback errors on all file descriptions that were open at
the time that the error occurred. This is a user-visible change,
but I think most applications are written to assume this behavior
anyway. Those that aren't are unlikely to be hurt by it.
3) document what filesystems should do when there is a writeback
error. Today, there is very little consistency between them, and a
lot of cargo-cult copying. We need to make it very clear what
filesystems should do in this situation.
To achieve this, the set adds a new data type (errseq_t) and then
builds new writeback error tracking infrastructure around that. Once
all of that is in place, we change the filesystems to use the new
infrastructure for reporting wb errors to userland.
Note that this is just the initial foray into cleaning up this mess.
There is a lot of work remaining here:
1) convert the rest of the filesystems in a similar fashion. Once the
initial set is in, then I think most other fs' will be fairly
simple to convert. Hopefully most of those can in via individual
filesystem trees.
2) convert internal waiters on writeback to use errseq_t for
detecting errors instead of relying on the AS_* flags. I have some
draft patches for this for ext4, but they are not quite ready for
prime time yet.
This was a discussion topic this year at LSF/MM too. If you're
interested in the gory details, LWN has some good articles about this:

movable_node_is_enabled is defined in memblock proper while it is
initialized from the memory hotplug proper. This is quite messy and it
makes a dependency between the two so move movable_node along with the
helper functions to memory_hotplug.
To make it more entertaining the kernel parameter is ignored unless
CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP=y because we do not have the node

Commit 20b2f52b73 ("numa: add CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE for
movable-dedicated node") has introduced CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE without a
good explanation on why it is actually useful.
It makes a lot of sense to make movable node semantic opt in but we
already have that because the feature has to be explicitly enabled on
the kernel command line. A config option on top only makes the
configuration space larger without a good reason. It also adds an
additional ifdefery that pollutes the code.
Just drop the config option and make it de-facto always enabled. This
shouldn't introduce any change to the semantic.

Patch series "remove CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE".
I am continuing to clean up the memory hotplug code and
CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE seems dubious at best. The following two patches
simply removes the flag and make it de-facto always enabled.
The current semantic of the config option is twofold 1) it automatically
binds hotplugable nodes to have memory in zone_movable by default when
movable_node is enabled 2) forbids memory hotplug to online all the
memory as movable when !CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE.
The later restriction is quite dubious because there is no clear cut of
how much normal memory do we need for a reasonable system operation. A
single memory block which is sufficient to allow further movable onlines
is far from sufficient (e.g a node with >2GB and memblocks 128MB will
fill up this zone with struct pages leaving nothing for other
allocations). Removing the config option will not only reduce the
configuration space it also removes quite some code.
The semantic of the movable_node command line parameter is preserved.
The first patch removes the restriction mentioned above and the second
one simply removes all the CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE related stuff. The last
patch moves movable_node flag handling to memory_hotplug proper where it
belongs.
[1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170524122411.25212-1-mhocko@kernel.org
This patch (of 3):
Commit 74d42d8fe1 ("memory_hotplug: ensure every online node has
NORMAL memory") has introduced a restriction that every numa node has to
have at least some memory in !movable zones before a first movable
memory can be onlined if !CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE.
Likewise can_offline_normal checks the amount of normal memory in
!movable zones and it disallows to offline memory if there is no normal
memory left with a justification that "memory-management acts bad when
we have nodes which is online but don't have any normal memory".
While it is true that not having _any_ memory for kernel allocations on
a NUMA node is far from great and such a node would be quite subotimal
because all kernel allocations will have to fallback to another NUMA
node but there is no reason to disallow such a configuration in
principle.
Besides that there is not really a big difference to have one memblock
for ZONE_NORMAL available or none. With 128MB size memblocks the system
might trash on the kernel allocations requests anyway. It is really
hard to draw a line on how much normal memory is really sufficient so we
have to rely on administrator to configure system sanely therefore drop
the artificial restriction and remove can_offline_normal and
can_online_high_movable altogether.

Patch series "mm: per-lruvec slab stats"
Josef is working on a new approach to balancing slab caches and the page
cache. For this to work, he needs slab cache statistics on the lruvec
level. These patches implement that by adding infrastructure that
allows updating and reading generic VM stat items per lruvec, then
switches some existing VM accounting sites, including the slab
accounting ones, to this new cgroup-aware API.
I'll follow up with more patches on this, because there is actually
substantial simplification that can be done to the memory controller
when we replace private memcg accounting with making the existing VM
accounting sites cgroup-aware. But this is enough for Josef to base his
slab reclaim work on, so here goes.
This patch (of 5):
To re-implement slab cache vs. page cache balancing, we'll need the
slab counters at the lruvec level, which, ever since lru reclaim was
moved from the zone to the node, is the intersection of the node, not
the zone, and the memcg.
We could retain the per-zone counters for when the page allocator dumps
its memory information on failures, and have counters on both levels -
which on all but NUMA node 0 is usually redundant. But let's keep it
simple for now and just move them. If anybody complains we can restore
the per-zone counters.

To reduce the lock contention of swap_info_struct->lock when freeing
swap entry. The freed swap entries will be collected in a per-CPU
buffer firstly, and be really freed later in batch. During the batch
freeing, if the consecutive swap entries in the per-CPU buffer belongs
to same swap device, the swap_info_struct->lock needs to be
acquired/released only once, so that the lock contention could be
reduced greatly. But if there are multiple swap devices, it is possible
that the lock may be unnecessarily released/acquired because the swap
entries belong to the same swap device are non-consecutive in the
per-CPU buffer.
To solve the issue, the per-CPU buffer is sorted according to the swap
device before freeing the swap entries.
With the patch, the memory (some swapped out) free time reduced 11.6%
(from 2.65s to 2.35s) in the vm-scalability swap-w-rand test case with
16 processes. The test is done on a Xeon E5 v3 system. The swap device
used is a RAM simulated PMEM (persistent memory) device. To test
swapping, the test case creates 16 processes, which allocate and write
to the anonymous pages until the RAM and part of the swap device is used
up, finally the memory (some swapped out) is freed before exit.

Kmemleak requires that vmalloc'ed objects have a minimum reference count
of 2: one in the corresponding vm_struct object and the other owned by
the vmalloc() caller. There are cases, however, where the original
vmalloc() returned pointer is lost and, instead, a pointer to vm_struct
is stored (see free_thread_stack()). Kmemleak currently reports such
objects as leaks.
This patch adds support for treating any surplus references to an object
as additional references to a specified object. It introduces the
kmemleak_vmalloc() API function which takes a vm_struct pointer and sets
its surplus reference passing to the actual vmalloc() returned pointer.
The __vmalloc_node_range() calling site has been modified accordingly.

Two wrappers of __alloc_pages_nodemask() are checking

with a cpuset update.
This has been shown to be ineffective in preventing premature OOM's
which can happen in __alloc_pages_slowpath() long before it returns back
to the wrappers to detect the race at that level.
Previous patches have made __alloc_pages_slowpath() more robust, so we

further wrong impression that it can actually help.

Commit c0ff7453bb ("cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when
changing cpuset's mems") has introduced a two-step protocol when
rebinding task's mempolicy due to cpuset update, in order to avoid a
parallel allocation seeing an empty effective nodemask and failing.
Later, commit cc9a6c8776 ("cpuset: mm: reduce large amounts of memory
barrier related damage v3") introduced a seqlock protection and removed
the synchronization point between the two update steps. At that point
(or perhaps later), the two-step rebinding became unnecessary.
Currently it only makes sure that the update first adds new nodes in
step 1 and then removes nodes in step 2. Without memory barriers the
effects are questionable, and even then this cannot prevent a parallel
zonelist iteration checking the nodemask at each step to observe all
nodes as unusable for allocation. We now fully rely on the seqlock to
prevent premature OOMs and allocation failures.
We can thus remove the two-step update parts and simplify the code.

The main allocator function __alloc_pages_nodemask() takes a zonelist
pointer as one of its parameters. All of its callers directly or
indirectly obtain the zonelist via node_zonelist() using a preferred
node id and gfp_mask. We can make the code a bit simpler by doing the
zonelist lookup in __alloc_pages_nodemask(), passing it a preferred node
id instead (gfp_mask is already another parameter).
There are some code size benefits thanks to removal of inlined
node_zonelist():
bloat-o-meter add/remove: 2/2 grow/shrink: 4/36 up/down: 399/-1351 (-952)
This will also make things simpler if we proceed with converting cpusets
to zonelists.

The task->il_next variable stores the next allocation node id for task's
MPOL_INTERLEAVE policy. mpol_rebind_nodemask() updates interleave and
bind mempolicies due to changing cpuset mems. Currently it also tries
to make sure that current->il_next is valid within the updated nodemask.
This is bogus, because 1) we are updating potentially any task's
mempolicy, not just current, and 2) we might be updating a per-vma
mempolicy, not task one.
The interleave_nodes() function that uses il_next can cope fine with the
value not being within the currently allowed nodes, so this hasn't
manifested as an actual issue.
We can remove the need for updating il_next completely by changing it to
il_prev and store the node id of the previous interleave allocation
instead of the next id. Then interleave_nodes() can calculate the next
id using the current nodemask and also store it as il_prev, except when
querying the next node via do_get_mempolicy().

I would like to stress that this patchset aims to fix issues and cleanup
the code *within the existing documented semantics*, i.e. patch 1
ignores mempolicy restrictions if the set of allowed nodes has no
intersection with set of nodes allowed by cpuset. I believe discussing
potential changes of the semantics can be better done once we have a
baseline with no known bugs of the current semantics.
I've recently summarized the cpuset/mempolicy issues in a LSF/MM
proposal [1] and the discussion itself [2]. I've been trying to rewrite
the handling as proposed, with the idea that changing semantics to make
all mempolicies static wrt cpuset updates (and discarding the relative
and default modes) can be tried on top, as there's a high risk of being
rejected/reverted because somebody might still care about the removed
modes.
However I haven't yet figured out how to properly:
1) make mempolicies swappable instead of rebinding in place. I thought
mbind() already works that way and uses refcounting to avoid
use-after-free of the old policy by a parallel allocation, but turns
out true refcounting is only done for shared (shmem) mempolicies, and
the actual protection for mbind() comes from mmap_sem. Extending the
refcounting means more overhead in allocator hot path. Also swapping
whole mempolicies means that we have to allocate the new ones, which
can fail, and reverting of the partially done work also means
allocating (note that mbind() doesn't care and will just leave part
of the range updated and part not updated when returning -ENOMEM...).
2) make cpuset's task->mems_allowed also swappable (after converting it
from nodemask to zonelist, which is the easy part) for mostly the
same reasons.
The good news is that while trying to do the above, I've at least
figured out how to hopefully close the remaining premature OOM's, and do
a buch of cleanups on top, removing quite some of the code that was also
supposed to prevent the cpuset update races, but doesn't work anymore
nowadays. This should fix the most pressing concerns with this topic
and give us a better baseline before either proceeding with the original
proposal, or pushing a change of semantics that removes the problem 1)
above. I'd be then fine with trying to change the semantic first and
rewrite later.
Patchset has been tested with the LTP cpuset01 stress test.

This patch (of 6):
Commit e47483bca2 ("mm, page_alloc: fix premature OOM when racing with
cpuset mems update") has fixed known recent regressions found by LTP's
cpuset01 testcase. I have however found that by modifying the testcase
to use per-vma mempolicies via bind(2) instead of per-task mempolicies
via set_mempolicy(2), the premature OOM still happens and the issue is
much older.
The root of the problem is that the cpuset's mems_allowed and
mempolicy's nodemask can temporarily have no intersection, thus
get_page_from_freelist() cannot find any usable zone. The current
semantic for empty intersection is to ignore mempolicy's nodemask and
honour cpuset restrictions. This is checked in node_zonelist(), but the
racy update can happen after we already passed the check. Such races
should be protected by the seqlock task->mems_allowed_seq, but it
doesn't work here, because 1) mpol_rebind_mm() does not happen under
seqlock for write, and doing so would lead to deadlock, as it takes
mmap_sem for write, while the allocation can have mmap_sem for read when
it's taking the seqlock for read. And 2) the seqlock cookie of callers
of node_zonelist() (alloc_pages_vma() and alloc_pages_current()) is
different than the one of __alloc_pages_slowpath(), so there's still a
potential race window.
This patch fixes the issue by having __alloc_pages_slowpath() check for
empty intersection of cpuset and ac->nodemask before OOM or allocation
failure. If it's indeed empty, the nodemask is ignored and allocation
retried, which mimics node_zonelist(). This works fine, because almost
all callers of __alloc_pages_nodemask are obtaining the nodemask via
node_zonelist(). The only exception is new_node_page() from hotplug,
where the potential violation of nodemask isn't an issue, as there's
already a fallback allocation attempt without any nodemask. If there's
a future caller that needs to have its specific nodemask honoured over
task's cpuset restrictions, we'll have to e.g. add a gfp flag for that.

set_huge_pte_at(), an architecture callback to populate hugepage ptes,
does not provide the range of virtual memory that is targeted. This
leads to ambiguity when dealing with swap entries on architectures that
support hugepages consisting of contiguous ptes.
Fix the problem by introducing an overridable helper that is called when
populating the page tables with swap entries. The size of the targeted
region is provided to the helper to help determine the number of entries
to be updated.
Provide a default implementation that maintains the current behaviour.

When unmapping a hugepage range, huge_pte_clear() is used to clear the
page table entries that are marked as not present. huge_pte_clear()
internally just ends up calling pte_clear() which does not correctly
deal with hugepages consisting of contiguous page table entries.
Add a size argument to address this issue and allow architectures to
override huge_pte_clear() by wrapping it in a #ifndef block.
Update s390 implementation with the size parameter as well.
Note that the change only affects huge_pte_clear() - the other generic

A poisoned or migrated hugepage is stored as a swap entry in the page
tables. On architectures that support hugepages consisting of
contiguous page table entries (such as on arm64) this leads to ambiguity
in determining the page table entry to return in huge_pte_offset() when
a poisoned entry is encountered.
Let's remove the ambiguity by adding a size parameter to convey
additional information about the requested address. Also fixup the
definition/usage of huge_pte_offset() throughout the tree.

When speculatively taking references to a hugepage using
page_cache_add_speculative() in gup_huge_pmd(), it is assumed that the
page returned by pmd_page() is the head page. Although normally true,
this assumption doesn't hold when the hugepage comprises of successive
page table entries such as when using contiguous bit on arm64 at PTE or
PMD levels.
This can be addressed by ensuring that the page passed to
page_cache_add_speculative() is the real head or by de-referencing the
head page within the function.
We take the first approach to keep the usage pattern aligned with
page_cache_get_speculative() where users already pass the appropriate
page, i.e., the de-referenced head.
Apply the same logic to fix gup_huge_[pud|pgd]() as well.

When operating on hugepages with DEBUG_VM enabled, the GUP code checks
the compound head for each tail page prior to calling
page_cache_add_speculative. This is broken, because on the fast-GUP
path (where we don't hold any page table locks) we can be racing with a
concurrent invocation of split_huge_page_to_list.
split_huge_page_to_list deals with this race by using page_ref_freeze to
freeze the page and force concurrent GUPs to fail whilst the component
pages are modified. This modification includes clearing the
compound_head field for the tail pages, so checking this prior to a
successful call to page_cache_add_speculative can lead to false
positives: In fact, page_cache_add_speculative *already* has this check
once the page refcount has been successfully updated, so we can simply
remove the broken calls to VM_BUG_ON_PAGE.

pte_offset_map_lock() finds and takes ptl, and returns pte. But some
callers return without unlocking the ptl when pte == NULL, which seems
weird.
Git history said that !pte check in change_pte_range() was introduced in
commit 1ad9f620c3 ("mm: numa: recheck for transhuge pages under lock
during protection changes") and still remains after commit 175ad4f1e7
("mm: mprotect: use pmd_trans_unstable instead of taking the pmd_lock")
which partially reverts 1ad9f620c3. So I think that it's just dead
code.
Many other caller of pte_offset_map_lock() never check NULL return, so
let's do likewise.

the gigantic_page_supported() function to be arch specific.
This allows architectures to conditionally enable runtime allocation of
gigantic huge page. Architectures like ppc64 supports different
gigantic huge page size (16G and 1G) based on the translation mode
selected. This provides an opportunity for ppc64 to enable runtime
allocation only w.r.t 1G hugepage.

The effect of this change on runtime is undetectable as filesystem
growth is not proportional to machine memory size as is currently
assumed. The change effects only large memory machine. Additional
tuning might be needed, but that can be done by the clients of the
kmem_cache_create interface, not the generic cache allocator itself.
The adaptive hashing is disabled on 32 bit systems to avoid confusion of
whether base should be different for smaller systems, and to avoid

Though migrating gigantic HugeTLB pages does not sound much like real
world use case, they can be affected by memory errors. Hence migration
at the PGD level HugeTLB pages should be supported just to enable soft
and hard offline use cases.
While allocating the new gigantic HugeTLB page, it should not matter
whether new page comes from the same node or not. There would be very
few gigantic pages on the system afterall, we should not be bothered
about node locality when trying to save a big page from crashing.
This change renames dequeu_huge_page_node() function as dequeue_huge
_page_node_exact() preserving it's original functionality. Now the new
dequeue_huge_page_node() function scans through all available online nodes
to allocate a huge page for the NUMA_NO_NODE case and just falls back
calling dequeu_huge_page_node_exact() for all other cases.

arch_add_memory gets for_device argument which then controls whether we
want to create memblocks for created memory sections. Simplify the
logic by telling whether we want memblocks directly rather than going
through pointless negation. This also makes the api easier to
understand because it is clear what we want rather than nothing telling
for_device which can mean anything.
This shouldn't introduce any functional change.

Heiko Carstens has noticed that he can generate overlapping zones for
ZONE_DMA and ZONE_NORMAL:

The reason is that we assume that the default zone for kernel onlining
is ZONE_NORMAL. This was a simplification introduced by the memory
hotplug rework and it is easily fixable by checking the range overlap in
the zone order and considering the first matching zone as the default
one. If there is no such zone then assume ZONE_NORMAL as we have been
doing so far.

Heiko Carstens has noticed that the MMOP_ONLINE_KEEP is broken currently
$ grep . memory3?/valid_zones
memory34/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable
memory37/valid_zones:Normal Movable
$ echo online_movable > memory34/state
$ grep . memory3?/valid_zones
memory34/valid_zones:Movable

$ echo online > memory36/state
$ grep . memory3?/valid_zones
memory34/valid_zones:Movable
memory36/valid_zones:Normal
memory37/valid_zones:Movable
so we have effectively punched a hole into the movable zone.
The problem is that move_pfn_range() check for MMOP_ONLINE_KEEP is
wrong. It only checks whether the given range is already part of the
movable zone which is not the case here as only memory34 is in the zone.
Fix this by using allow_online_pfn_range(..., MMOP_ONLINE_KERNEL) if
that is false then we can be sure that movable onlining is the right
thing to do.

The current memory hotplug implementation relies on having all the
struct pages associate with a zone/node during the physical hotplug
phase (arch_add_memory->__add_pages->__add_section->__add_zone). In the
vast majority of cases this means that they are added to ZONE_NORMAL.
This has been so since 9d99aaa31f ("[PATCH] x86_64: Support memory
hotadd without sparsemem") and it wasn't a big deal back then because
movable onlining didn't exist yet.
Much later memory hotplug wanted to (ab)use ZONE_MOVABLE for movable
onlining 511c2aba8f ("mm, memory-hotplug: dynamic configure movable
memory and portion memory") and then things got more complicated.
Rather than reconsidering the zone association which was no longer
needed (because the memory hotplug already depended on SPARSEMEM) a
convoluted semantic of zone shifting has been developed. Only the
currently last memblock or the one adjacent to the zone_movable can be
onlined movable. This essentially means that the online type changes as
the new memblocks are added.
Let's simulate memory hot online manually
$ echo 0x100000000 > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe
$ grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones
Normal Movable
$ echo $((0x100000000+(128<<20))) > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe
$ grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory3?/valid_zones
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable
$ echo $((0x100000000+2*(128<<20))) > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe
$ grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory3?/valid_zones
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Normal Movable
$ echo online_movable > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/state
$ grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory3?/valid_zones
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Movable Normal
This is an awkward semantic because an udev event is sent as soon as the
block is onlined and an udev handler might want to online it based on
some policy (e.g. association with a node) but it will inherently race
with new blocks showing up.
This patch changes the physical online phase to not associate pages with
any zone at all. All the pages are just marked reserved and wait for
the onlining phase to be associated with the zone as per the online
request. There are only two requirements
- existing ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_MOVABLE cannot overlap
- ZONE_NORMAL precedes ZONE_MOVABLE in physical addresses
the latter one is not an inherent requirement and can be changed in the
future. It preserves the current behavior and made the code slightly
simpler. This is subject to change in future.
This means that the same physical online steps as above will lead to the
following state: Normal Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Normal Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Movable
Implementation:
The current move_pfn_range is reimplemented to check the above
requirements (allow_online_pfn_range) and then updates the respective
zone (move_pfn_range_to_zone), the pgdat and links all the pages in the
pfn range with the zone/node. __add_pages is updated to not require the
zone and only initializes sections in the range. This allowed to
simplify the arch_add_memory code (s390 could get rid of quite some of
code).
devm_memremap_pages is the only user of arch_add_memory which relies on
the zone association because it only hooks into the memory hotplug only
half way. It uses it to associate the new memory with ZONE_DEVICE but
doesn't allow it to be {on,off}lined via sysfs. This means that this
particular code path has to call move_pfn_range_to_zone explicitly.
The original zone shifting code is kept in place and will be removed in
the follow up patch for an easier review.
Please note that this patch also changes the original behavior when
offlining a memory block adjacent to another zone (Normal vs. Movable)
used to allow to change its movable type. This will be handled later.

__first_valid_page skips over invalid pfns in the range but it might
still stumble over offline pages. At least start_isolate_page_range
will mark those set_migratetype_isolate. This doesn't represent any
immediate AFAICS because alloc_contig_range will fail to isolate those
pages but it relies on not fully initialized page which will become a
problem later when we stop associating offline pages to zones. Use
pfn_to_online_page to handle this.
This is more a preparatory patch than a fix.

__pageblock_pfn_to_page has two users currently, set_zone_contiguous
which checks whether the given zone contains holes and
pageblock_pfn_to_page which then carefully returns a first valid page
from the given pfn range for the given zone. This doesn't handle zones
which are not fully populated though. Memory pageblocks can be offlined
or might not have been onlined yet. In such a case the zone should be
considered to have holes otherwise pfn walkers can touch and play with
offline pages.
Current callers of pageblock_pfn_to_page in compaction seem to work
properly right now because they only isolate PageBuddy
(isolate_freepages_block) or PageLRU resp. __PageMovable
(isolate_migratepages_block) which will be always false for these pages.
It would be safer to skip these pages altogether, though.
In order to do this patch adds a new memory section state
(SECTION_IS_ONLINE) which is set in memory_present (during boot time) or
in online_pages_range during the memory hotplug. Similarly
offline_mem_sections clears the bit and it is called when the memory
range is offlined.
pfn_to_online_page helper is then added which check the mem section and
only returns a page if it is onlined already.
Use the new helper in __pageblock_pfn_to_page and skip the whole page
block in such a case.

Memory hotplug (add_memory_resource) has to reinitialize node
infrastructure if the node is offline (one which went through the
complete add_memory(); remove_memory() cycle). That involves node
registration to the kobj infrastructure (register_node), the proper
association with cpus (register_cpu_under_node) and finally creation of
node<->memblock symlinks (link_mem_sections).
The last part requires to know node_start_pfn and node_spanned_pages
which we currently have but a leter patch will postpone this
initialization to the onlining phase which happens later. In fact we do
not need to rely on the early pgdat initialization even now because the
currently hot added pfn range is currently known.
Split register_one_node into core which does all the common work for the
boot time NUMA initialization and the hotplug (__register_one_node).
register_one_node keeps the full initialization while hotplug calls
__register_one_node and manually calls link_mem_sections for the proper
range.
This shouldn't introduce any functional change.

Device memory hotplug hooks into regular memory hotplug only half way.
It needs memory sections to track struct pages but there is no
need/desire to associate those sections with memory blocks and export
them to the userspace via sysfs because they cannot be onlined anyway.
This is currently expressed by for_device argument to arch_add_memory
which then makes sure to associate the given memory range with
ZONE_DEVICE. register_new_memory then relies on is_zone_device_section
to distinguish special memory hotplug from the regular one. While this
works now, later patches in this series want to move __add_zone outside
of arch_add_memory path so we have to come up with something else.
Add want_memblock down the __add_pages path and use it to control
whether the section->memblock association should be done.
arch_add_memory then just trivially want memblock for everything but
for_device hotplug.
remove_memory_section doesn't need is_zone_device_section either. We
can simply skip all the memblock specific cleanup if there is no
memblock for the given section.
This shouldn't introduce any functional change.

Patch series "mm: make movable onlining suck less", v4.
Movable onlining is a real hack with many downsides - mainly
reintroduction of lowmem/highmem issues we used to have on 32b systems -
but it is the only way to make the memory hotremove more reliable which
is something that people are asking for.
The current semantic of memory movable onlinening is really cumbersome,
however. The main reason for this is that the udev driven approach is
basically unusable because udev races with the memory probing while only
the last memory block or the one adjacent to the existing zone_movable
are allowed to be onlined movable. In short the criterion for the
successful online_movable changes under udev's feet. A reliable udev
approach would require a 2 phase approach where the first successful
movable online would have to check all the previous blocks and online
them in descending order. This is hard to be considered sane.
This patchset aims at making the onlining semantic more usable. First
of all it allows to online memory movable as long as it doesn't clash
with the existing ZONE_NORMAL. That means that ZONE_NORMAL and
ZONE_MOVABLE cannot overlap. Currently I preserve the original ordering
semantic so the zone always precedes the movable zone but I have plans
to remove this restriction in future because it is not really necessary.
First 3 patches are cleanups which should be ready to be merged right
away (unless I have missed something subtle of course).
Patch 4 deals with ZONE_DEVICE dependencies down the __add_pages path.
Patch 5 deals with implicit assumptions of register_one_node on pgdat
initialization.
Patches 6-10 deal with offline holes in the zone for pfn walkers. I
hope I got all of them right but people familiar with compaction should
double check this.
Patch 11 is the core of the change. In order to make it easier to
review I have tried it to be as minimalistic as possible and the large
code removal is moved to patch 14.
Patch 12 is a trivial follow up cleanup. Patch 13 fixes sparse warnings
and finally patch 14 removes the unused code.
I have tested the patches in kvm:
# qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -monitor pty -m 2G,slots=4,maxmem=4G -numa node,mem=1G -numa node,mem=1G ...
and then probed the additional memory by
(qemu) object_add memory-backend-ram,id=mem1,size=1G
(qemu) device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm1,memdev=mem1
Then I have used this simple script to probe the memory block by hand
# cat probe_memblock.sh
#!/bin/sh
BLOCK_NR=$1
# echo $((0x100000000+$BLOCK_NR*(128<<20))) > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe
# for i in $(seq 10); do sh probe_memblock.sh $i; done
# grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory3?/valid_zones 2>/dev/null
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Normal Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory37/valid_zones:Normal Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory38/valid_zones:Normal Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory39/valid_zones:Normal Movable
The main difference to the original implementation is that all new
memblocks can be both online_kernel and online_movable initially because
there is no clash obviously. For the comparison the original
implementation would have
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Normal
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory35/valid_zones:Normal
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory36/valid_zones:Normal
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory37/valid_zones:Normal
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory38/valid_zones:Normal
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory39/valid_zones:Normal Movable
Now
# echo online_movable > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/state
# grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory3?/valid_zones 2>/dev/null
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory35/valid_zones:Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory36/valid_zones:Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory37/valid_zones:Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory38/valid_zones:Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory39/valid_zones:Movable
Block 33 can still be online both kernel and movable while all
the remaining can be only movable.
/proc/zonelist says
Node 0, zone Normal
pages free 0
min 0
low 0
high 0

present 0
--
Node 0, zone Movable
pages free 32753
min 85
low 117
high 149
spanned 32768
present 32768
A new memblock at a lower address will result in a new memblock (32)
which will still allow both Normal and Movable.
# sh probe_memblock.sh 0
# grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory3[2-5]/valid_zones 2>/dev/null
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal Movable

/sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory35/valid_zones:Movable
and online_kernel will convert it to the zone normal properly
while 33 can be still onlined both ways.
# echo online_kernel > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/state
# grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory3[2-5]/valid_zones 2>/dev/null
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Movable
/sys/devices/system/memory/memory35/valid_zones:Movable
/proc/zoneinfo will now tell
Node 0, zone Normal
pages free 65441
min 165
low 230
high 295
spanned 65536
present 65536
--
Node 0, zone Movable
pages free 32740
min 82
low 114
high 146
spanned 32768
present 32768
so both zones have one memblock spanned and present.
Onlining 39 should associate this block to the movable zone
# echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory39/state
/proc/zoneinfo will now tell
Node 0, zone Normal
pages free 32765
min 80
low 112
high 144
spanned 32768
present 32768
--
Node 0, zone Movable
pages free 65501
min 160
low 225
high 290
spanned 196608
present 65536
so we will have a movable zone which spans 6 memblocks, 2 present and 4
representing a hole.
Offlining both movable blocks will lead to the zone with no present
pages which is the expected behavior I believe.
# echo offline > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory39/state
# echo offline > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/state
# grep -A6 "Movable\|Normal" /proc/zoneinfo
Node 0, zone Normal
pages free 32735
min 90
low 122
high 154
spanned 32768
present 32768
--
Node 0, zone Movable
pages free 0
min 0
low 0
high 0
spanned 196608
present 0
As a bonus we will get a nice cleanup in the memory hotplug codebase.
This patch (of 16):
init_currently_empty_zone doesn't have any error to return yet it is
still an int and callers try to be defensive and try to handle potential
error. Remove this nonsense and simplify all callers.
This patch shouldn't have any visible effect

If there is no compound map for a THP (Transparent Huge Page), it is
possible that the map count of some sub-pages of the THP is 0. So it is
better to split the THP before swapping out. In this way, the sub-pages
not mapped will be freed, and we can avoid the unnecessary swap out
operations for these sub-pages.

To swap out THP (Transparent Huage Page), before splitting the THP, the
swap cluster will be allocated and the THP will be added into the swap
cache. But it is possible that the THP cannot be split, so that we must
delete the THP from the swap cache and free the swap cluster. To avoid
that, in this patch, whether the THP can be split is checked firstly.
The check can only be done racy, but it is good enough for most cases.
With the patch, the swap out throughput improves 3.6% (from about
4.16GB/s to about 4.31GB/s) in the vm-scalability swap-w-seq test case
with 8 processes. The test is done on a Xeon E5 v3 system. The swap
device used is a RAM simulated PMEM (persistent memory) device. To test
the sequential swapping out, the test case creates 8 processes, which
sequentially allocate and write to the anonymous pages until the RAM and
part of the swap device is used up.

The add_to_swap aims to allocate swap_space(ie, swap slot and swapcache)
so if it fails due to lack of space in case of THP or something(hdd swap
but tries THP swapout) *caller* rather than add_to_swap itself should
split the THP page and retry it with base page which is more natural.

Now, get_swap_page takes struct page and allocates swap space according
to page size(ie, normal or THP) so it would be more cleaner to introduce
put_swap_page which is a counter function of get_swap_page. Then, it
calls right swap slot free function depending on page's size.

Patch series "THP swap: Delay splitting THP during swapping out", v11.
This patchset is to optimize the performance of Transparent Huge Page
(THP) swap.
Recently, the performance of the storage devices improved so fast that
we cannot saturate the disk bandwidth with single logical CPU when do
page swap out even on a high-end server machine. Because the
performance of the storage device improved faster than that of single
logical CPU. And it seems that the trend will not change in the near
future. On the other hand, the THP becomes more and more popular
because of increased memory size. So it becomes necessary to optimize
THP swap performance.
The advantages of the THP swap support include:
- Batch the swap operations for the THP to reduce lock
acquiring/releasing, including allocating/freeing the swap space,
adding/deleting to/from the swap cache, and writing/reading the swap
space, etc. This will help improve the performance of the THP swap.
- The THP swap space read/write will be 2M sequential IO. It is
particularly helpful for the swap read, which are usually 4k random
IO. This will improve the performance of the THP swap too.
- It will help the memory fragmentation, especially when the THP is
heavily used by the applications. The 2M continuous pages will be
free up after THP swapping out.
- It will improve the THP utilization on the system with the swap
turned on. Because the speed for khugepaged to collapse the normal
pages into the THP is quite slow. After the THP is split during the
swapping out, it will take quite long time for the normal pages to
collapse back into the THP after being swapped in. The high THP
utilization helps the efficiency of the page based memory management
too.
There are some concerns regarding THP swap in, mainly because possible
enlarged read/write IO size (for swap in/out) may put more overhead on
the storage device. To deal with that, the THP swap in should be turned
on only when necessary. For example, it can be selected via
"always/never/madvise" logic, to be turned on globally, turned off
globally, or turned on only for VMA with MADV_HUGEPAGE, etc.
This patchset is the first step for the THP swap support. The plan is
to delay splitting THP step by step, finally avoid splitting THP during
the THP swapping out and swap out/in the THP as a whole.
As the first step, in this patchset, the splitting huge page is delayed
from almost the first step of swapping out to after allocating the swap
space for the THP and adding the THP into the swap cache. This will
reduce lock acquiring/releasing for the locks used for the swap cache
management.
With the patchset, the swap out throughput improves 15.5% (from about
3.73GB/s to about 4.31GB/s) in the vm-scalability swap-w-seq test case
with 8 processes. The test is done on a Xeon E5 v3 system. The swap
device used is a RAM simulated PMEM (persistent memory) device. To test
the sequential swapping out, the test case creates 8 processes, which
sequentially allocate and write to the anonymous pages until the RAM and
part of the swap device is used up.
This patch (of 5):
In this patch, splitting huge page is delayed from almost the first step
of swapping out to after allocating the swap space for the THP
(Transparent Huge Page) and adding the THP into the swap cache. This
will batch the corresponding operation, thus improve THP swap out
throughput.
This is the first step for the THP swap optimization. The plan is to
delay splitting the THP step by step and avoid splitting the THP
finally.
In this patch, one swap cluster is used to hold the contents of each THP
swapped out. So, the size of the swap cluster is changed to that of the
THP (Transparent Huge Page) on x86_64 architecture (512). For other
architectures which want such THP swap optimization,
ARCH_USES_THP_SWAP_CLUSTER needs to be selected in the Kconfig file for
the architecture. In effect, this will enlarge swap cluster size by 2
times on x86_64. Which may make it harder to find a free cluster when
the swap space becomes fragmented. So that, this may reduce the
continuous swap space allocation and sequential write in theory. The
performance test in 0day shows no regressions caused by this.
In the future of THP swap optimization, some information of the swapped
out THP (such as compound map count) will be recorded in the
swap_cluster_info data structure.
The mem cgroup swap accounting functions are enhanced to support charge
or uncharge a swap cluster backing a THP as a whole.
The swap cluster allocate/free functions are added to allocate/free a
swap cluster for a THP. A fair simple algorithm is used for swap
cluster allocation, that is, only the first swap device in priority list
will be tried to allocate the swap cluster. The function will fail if
the trying is not successful, and the caller will fallback to allocate a
single swap slot instead. This works good enough for normal cases. If
the difference of the number of the free swap clusters among multiple
swap devices is significant, it is possible that some THPs are split
earlier than necessary. For example, this could be caused by big size
difference among multiple swap devices.
The swap cache functions is enhanced to support add/delete THP to/from
the swap cache as a set of (HPAGE_PMD_NR) sub-pages. This may be
enhanced in the future with multi-order radix tree. But because we will
split the THP soon during swapping out, that optimization doesn't make
much sense for this first step.
The THP splitting functions are enhanced to support to split THP in swap
cache during swapping out. The page lock will be held during allocating
the swap cluster, adding the THP into the swap cache and splitting the
THP. So in the code path other than swapping out, if the THP need to be
split, the PageSwapCache(THP) will be always false.
The swap cluster is only available for SSD, so the THP swap optimization
in this patchset has no effect for HDD.

If a candidate stable_node_dup has been found and it can accept further
merges it can be refiled to the head of the list to speedup next
searches without altering which dup is found and how the dups accumulate
in the chain.
We already refiled it back to the head in the prune_stale_stable_nodes
case, but we didn't refile it if not pruning (which is more common).
And we also refiled it when it was already at the head which is
unnecessary (in the prune_stale_stable_nodes case, nr > 1 means there's
more than one dup in the chain, it doesn't mean it's not already at the
head of the chain).
The stable_node_chain list is single threaded and there's no SMP locking
contention so it should be faster to refile it to the head of the list
also if prune_stale_stable_nodes is false.
Profiling shows the refile happens 1.9% of the time when a dup is found
with a max_page_sharing limit setting of 3 (with max_page_sharing of 2
the refile never happens of course as there's never space for one more
merge) which is reasonably low. At higher max_page_sharing values it
should be much less frequent.
This is just an optimization.

Some static checker complains if chain/chain_prune returns a potentially
stale pointer.
There are two output parameters to chain/chain_prune, one is tree_page
the other is stable_node_dup. Like in get_ksm_page the caller has to
check tree_page is NULL before touching the stable_node. Similarly in
chain/chain_prune the caller has to check tree_page before touching the
stable_node_dup returned or the original stable_node passed as
parameter.
Because the tree_page is never returned as a stale pointer, it may be
more intuitive to return tree_page and to pass stable_node_dup for
reference instead of the reverse.
This patch purely swaps the two output parameters of chain/chain_prune
as a cleanup for the static checker and to mimic the get_ksm_page
behavior more closely. There's no change to the caller at all except
the swap, it's purely a cleanup and it is a noop from the caller point
of view.

Patch series "KSMscale cleanup/optimizations".
There are no fixes here it's just minor cleanups and optimizations.
1/3 removes makes the "fix" for the stale stable_node fall in the
standard case without introducing new cases. Setting stable_node to
NULL was marginally safer, but stale pointer is still wiped from the
caller, this looks cleaner.
2/3 should fix the false positive from Dan's static checker.
3/3 is a microoptimization to apply the the refile of future merge
candidate dups at the head of the chain in all cases and to skip it in
one case where we did it and but it was a noop (to avoid checking if
it was already at the head but now we've to check it anyway so it got
optimized away).
This patch (of 3):
When the stable_node chain is collapsed we can as well set the caller
stable_node to match the returned stable_node_dup in chain_prune().
This way the collapse case becomes indistinguishable from the regular
stable_node case and we can remove two branches from the KSM page
migration handling slow paths.
While it was all correct this looks cleaner (and faster) as the caller has
to deal with fewer special cases.

If merge_across_nodes was manually set to 0 (not the default value) by
the admin or a tuned profile on NUMA systems triggering cross-NODE page
migrations, a stable_node use after free could materialize.
If the chain is collapsed stable_node would point to the old chain that
was already freed. stable_node_dup would be the stable_node dup now
converted to a regular stable_node and indexed in the rbtree in
replacement of the freed stable_node chain (not anymore a dup).
This special case where the chain is collapsed in the NUMA replacement
path, is now detected by setting stable_node to NULL by the chain_prune
callee if it decides to collapse the chain. This tells the NUMA
replacement code that even if stable_node and stable_node_dup are
different, this is not a chain if stable_node is NULL, as the
stable_node_dup was converted to a regular stable_node and the chain was
collapsed.
It is generally safer for the callee to force the caller stable_node to
NULL the moment it become stale so any other mistake like this would
result in an instant Oops easier to debug than an use after free.
Otherwise the replace logic would act like if stable_node was a valid
chain, when in fact it was freed. Notably
stable_node_chain_add_dup(page_node, stable_node) would run on a stable
stable_node.
Andrey Ryabinin found the source of the use after free in chain_prune().

Without a max deduplication limit for each KSM page, the list of the
rmap_items associated to each stable_node can grow infinitely large.
During the rmap walk each entry can take up to ~10usec to process
because of IPIs for the TLB flushing (both for the primary MMU and the
secondary MMUs with the MMU notifier). With only 16GB of address space
shared in the same KSM page, that would amount to dozens of seconds of
kernel runtime.
A ~256 max deduplication factor will reduce the latencies of the rmap
walks on KSM pages to order of a few msec. Just doing the
cond_resched() during the rmap walks is not enough, the list size must
have a limit too, otherwise the caller could get blocked in (schedule
friendly) kernel computations for seconds, unexpectedly.
There's room for optimization to significantly reduce the IPI delivery
cost during the page_referenced(), but at least for page_migration in
the KSM case (used by hard NUMA bindings, compaction and NUMA balancing)
it may be inevitable to send lots of IPIs if each rmap_item->mm is
active on a different CPU and there are lots of CPUs. Even if we ignore
the IPI delivery cost, we've still to walk the whole KSM rmap list, so
we can't allow millions or billions (ulimited) number of entries in the
KSM stable_node rmap_item lists.
The limit is enforced efficiently by adding a second dimension to the
stable rbtree. So there are three types of stable_nodes: the regular
ones (identical as before, living in the first flat dimension of the
stable rbtree), the "chains" and the "dups".
Every "chain" and all "dups" linked into a "chain" enforce the invariant
that they represent the same write protected memory content, even if
each "dup" will be pointed by a different KSM page copy of that content.
This way the stable rbtree lookup computational complexity is unaffected
if compared to an unlimited max_sharing_limit. It is still enforced
that there cannot be KSM page content duplicates in the stable rbtree
itself.
Adding the second dimension to the stable rbtree only after the
max_page_sharing limit hits, provides for a zero memory footprint
increase on 64bit archs. The memory overhead of the per-KSM page
stable_tree and per virtual mapping rmap_item is unchanged. Only after
the max_page_sharing limit hits, we need to allocate a stable_tree
"chain" and rb_replace() the "regular" stable_node with the newly
allocated stable_node "chain". After that we simply add the "regular"
stable_node to the chain as a stable_node "dup" by linking hlist_dup in
the stable_node_chain->hlist. This way the "regular" (flat) stable_node
is converted to a stable_node "dup" living in the second dimension of
the stable rbtree.
During stable rbtree lookups the stable_node "chain" is identified as
stable_node->rmap_hlist_len == STABLE_NODE_CHAIN (aka
is_stable_node_chain()).
When dropping stable_nodes, the stable_node "dup" is identified as
stable_node->head == STABLE_NODE_DUP_HEAD (aka is_stable_node_dup()).
The STABLE_NODE_DUP_HEAD must be an unique valid pointer never used
elsewhere in any stable_node->head/node to avoid a clashes with the
stable_node->node.rb_parent_color pointer, and different from
&migrate_nodes. So the second field of &migrate_nodes is picked and
verified as always safe with a BUILD_BUG_ON in case the list_head
implementation changes in the future.
The STABLE_NODE_DUP is picked as a random negative value in
stable_node->rmap_hlist_len. rmap_hlist_len cannot become negative when
it's a "regular" stable_node or a stable_node "dup".
The stable_node_chain->nid is irrelevant. The stable_node_chain->kpfn
is aliased in a union with a time field used to rate limit the
stable_node_chain->hlist prunes.
The garbage collection of the stable_node_chain happens lazily during
stable rbtree lookups (as for all other kind of stable_nodes), or while
disabling KSM with "echo 2 >/sys/kernel/mm/ksm/run" while collecting the
entire stable rbtree.
While the "regular" stable_nodes and the stable_node "dups" must wait
for their underlying tree_page to be freed before they can be freed
themselves, the stable_node "chains" can be freed immediately if the
stable_node->hlist turns empty. This is because the "chains" are never
pointed by any page->mapping and they're effectively stable rbtree KSM
self contained metadata.

There are a number of times that we loop over NR_MEM_SECTIONS, looking
for section_present() on each section. But, when we have very large
physical address spaces (large MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS), NR_MEM_SECTIONS
becomes very large, making the loops quite long.
With MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS=46 and a section size of 128MB, the current loops
are 512k iterations, which we barely notice on modern hardware. But,
raising MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS higher (like we will see on systems that
support 5-level paging) makes this 64x longer and we start to notice,
especially on slower systems like simulators. A 10-second delay for
512k iterations is annoying. But, a 640- second delay is crippling.
This does not help if we have extremely sparse physical address spaces,
but those are quite rare. We expect that most of the "slow" systems
where this matters will also be quite small and non-sparse.
To fix this, we track the highest section we've ever encountered. This
lets us know when we will *never* see another section_present(), and
lets us break out of the loops earlier.
Doing the whole for_each_present_section_nr() macro is probably
overkill, but it will ensure that any future loop iterations that we
grow are more likely to be correct.
Kirrill said "It shaved almost 40 seconds from boot time in qemu with
5-level paging enabled for me".

Some hardened environments want to build kernels with slab_nomerge
already set (so that they do not depend on remembering to set the kernel
command line option). This is desired to reduce the risk of kernel heap
overflows being able to overwrite objects from merged caches and changes
the requirements for cache layout control, increasing the difficulty of
these attacks. By keeping caches unmerged, these kinds of exploits can
usually only damage objects in the same cache (though the risk to
metadata exploitation is unchanged).
