mm: memcg: convert vmstat slab counters to bytes
In order to prepare for per-object slab memory accounting, convert NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE and NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE vmstat items to bytes. To make it obvious, rename them to NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE_B and NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE_B (similar to NR_KERNEL_STACK_KB). Internally global and per-node counters are stored in pages, however memcg and lruvec counters are stored in bytes. This scheme may look weird, but only for now. As soon as slab pages will be shared between multiple cgroups, global and node counters will reflect the total number of slab pages. However memcg and lruvec counters will be used for per-memcg slab memory tracking, which will take separate kernel objects in the account. Keeping global and node counters in pages helps to avoid additional overhead. The size of slab memory shouldn't exceed 4Gb on 32-bit machines, so it will fit into atomic_long_t we use for vmstats.

mm: workingset: age nonresident information alongside anonymous pages
Patch series "fix for "mm: balance LRU lists based on relative
thrashing" patchset"
This patchset fixes some problems of the patchset, "mm: balance LRU
lists based on relative thrashing", which is now merged on the mainline.
Patch "mm: workingset: let cache workingset challenge anon fix" is the
result of discussion with Johannes. See following link.
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200520232525.798933-6-hannes@cmpxchg.org
And, the other two are minor things which are found when I try to rebase
my patchset.
This patch (of 3):
After ("mm: workingset: let cache workingset challenge anon fix"), we
compare refault distances to active_file + anon. But age of the
non-resident information is only driven by the file LRU. As a result,
we may overestimate the recency of any incoming refaults and activate
them too eagerly, causing unnecessary LRU churn in certain situations.
Make anon aging drive nonresident age as well to address that.

mm: vmscan: reclaim writepage is IO cost
The VM tries to balance reclaim pressure between anon and file so as to reduce the amount of IO incurred due to the memory shortage. It already counts refaults and swapins, but in addition it should also count writepage calls during reclaim. For swap, this is obvious: it's IO that wouldn't have occurred if the anonymous memory hadn't been under memory pressure. From a relative balancing point of view this makes sense as well: even if anon is cold and reclaimable, a cache that isn't thrashing may have equally cold pages that don't require IO to reclaim. For file writeback, it's trickier: some of the reclaim writepage IO would have likely occurred anyway due to dirty expiration. But not all of it - premature writeback reduces batching and generates additional writes. Since the flushers are already woken up by the time the VM starts writing cache pages one by one, let's assume that we'e likely causing writes that wouldn't have happened without memory pressure. In addition, the per-page cost of IO would have probably been much cheaper if written in larger batches from the flusher thread rather than the single-page-writes from kswapd. For our purposes - getting the trend right to accelerate convergence on a stable state that doesn't require paging at all - this is sufficiently accurate. If we later wanted to optimize for sustained thrashing, we can still refine the measurements. Count all writepage calls from kswapd as IO cost toward the LRU that the page belongs to. Why do this dynamically? Don't we know in advance that anon pages require IO to reclaim, and so could build in a static bias? First, scanning is not the same as reclaiming. If all the anon pages are referenced, we may not swap for a while just because we're scanning the anon list. During this time, however, it's important that we age anonymous memory and the page cache at the same rate so that their hot-cold gradients are comparable. Everything else being equal, we still want to reclaim the coldest memory overall. Second, we keep copies in swap unless the page changes. If there is swap-backed data that's mostly read (tmpfs file) and has been swapped out before, we can reclaim it without incurring additional IO.

mm: balance LRU lists based on relative thrashing
Since the LRUs were split into anon and file lists, the VM has been
balancing between page cache and anonymous pages based on per-list ratios
of scanned vs. rotated pages. In most cases that tips page reclaim
towards the list that is easier to reclaim and has the fewest actively
used pages, but there are a few problems with it:
1. Refaults and LRU rotations are weighted the same way, even though
one costs IO and the other costs a bit of CPU.
2. The less we scan an LRU list based on already observed rotations,
the more we increase the sampling interval for new references, and
rotations become even more likely on that list. This can enter a
death spiral in which we stop looking at one list completely until
the other one is all but annihilated by page reclaim.

mm: workingset: let cache workingset challenge anon
We activate cache refaults with reuse distances in pages smaller than the size of the total cache. This allows new pages with competitive access frequencies to establish themselves, as well as challenge and potentially displace pages on the active list that have gone cold. However, that assumes that active cache can only replace other active cache in a competition for the hottest memory. This is not a great default assumption. The page cache might be thrashing while there are enough completely cold and unused anonymous pages sitting around that we'd only have to write to swap once to stop all IO from the cache. Activate cache refaults when their reuse distance in pages is smaller than the total userspace workingset, including anonymous pages. Reclaim can still decide how to balance pressure among the two LRUs depending on the IO situation. Rotational drives will prefer avoiding random IO from swap and go harder after cache. But fundamentally, hot cache should be able to compete with anon pages for a place in RAM.

mm: vmscan: detect file thrashing at the reclaim root
We use refault information to determine whether the cache workingset is stable or transitioning, and dynamically adjust the inactive:active file LRU ratio so as to maximize protection from one-off cache during stable periods, and minimize IO during transitions. With cgroups and their nested LRU lists, we currently don't do this correctly. While recursive cgroup reclaim establishes a relative LRU order among the pages of all involved cgroups, refaults only affect the local LRU order in the cgroup in which they are occuring. As a result, cache transitions can take longer in a cgrouped system as the active pages of sibling cgroups aren't challenged when they should be. [ Right now, this is somewhat theoretical, because the siblings, under continued regular reclaim pressure, should eventually run out of inactive pages - and since inactive:active *size* balancing is also done on a cgroup-local level, we will challenge the active pages eventually in most cases. But the next patch will move that relative size enforcement to the reclaim root as well, and then this patch here will be necessary to propagate refault pressure to siblings. ] This patch moves refault detection to the root of reclaim. Instead of remembering the cgroup owner of an evicted page, remember the cgroup that caused the reclaim to happen. When refaults later occur, they'll correctly influence the cross-cgroup LRU order that reclaim follows. I.e. if global reclaim kicked out pages in some subgroup A/B/C, the refault of those pages will challenge the global LRU order, and not just the local order down inside C.

mm: clean up and clarify lruvec lookup procedure
There is a per-memcg lruvec and a NUMA node lruvec. Which one is being used is somewhat confusing right now, and it's easy to make mistakes - especially when it comes to global reclaim. How it works: when memory cgroups are enabled, we always use the root_mem_cgroup's per-node lruvecs. When memory cgroups are not compiled in or disabled at runtime, we use pgdat->lruvec. Document that in a comment. Due to the way the reclaim code is generalized, all lookups use the mem_cgroup_lruvec() helper function, and nobody should have to find the right lruvec manually right now. But to avoid future mistakes, rename the pgdat->lruvec member to pgdat->__lruvec and delete the convenience wrapper that suggests it's a commonly accessed member. While in this area, swap the mem_cgroup_lruvec() argument order. The name suggests a memcg operation, yet it takes a pgdat first and a memcg second. I have to double take every time I call this. Fix that.

mm: memcontrol: make cgroup stats and events query API explicitly local
Patch series "mm: memcontrol: memory.stat cost & correctness". The cgroup memory.stat file holds recursive statistics for the entire subtree. The current implementation does this tree walk on-demand whenever the file is read. This is giving us problems in production. 1. The cost of aggregating the statistics on-demand is high. A lot of system service cgroups are mostly idle and their stats don't change between reads, yet we always have to check them. There are also always some lazily-dying cgroups sitting around that are pinned by a handful of remaining page cache; the same applies to them. In an application that periodically monitors memory.stat in our fleet, we have seen the aggregation consume up to 5% CPU time. 2. When cgroups die and disappear from the cgroup tree, so do their accumulated vm events. The result is that the event counters at higher-level cgroups can go backwards and confuse some of our automation, let alone people looking at the graphs over time. To address both issues, this patch series changes the stat implementation to spill counts upwards when the counters change. The upward spilling is batched using the existing per-cpu cache. In a sparse file stress test with 5 level cgroup nesting, the additional cost of the flushing was negligible (a little under 1% of CPU at 100% CPU utilization, compared to the 5% of reading memory.stat during regular operation). This patch (of 4): memcg_page_state(), lruvec_page_state(), memcg_sum_events() are currently returning the state of the local memcg or lruvec, not the recursive state. In practice there is a demand for both versions, although the callers that want the recursive counts currently sum them up by hand. Per default, cgroups are considered recursive entities and generally we expect more users of the recursive counters, with the local counts being special cases. To reflect that in the name, add a _local suffix to the current implementations. The following patch will re-incarnate these functions with recursive semantics, but with an O(1) implementation.

mm: zero-seek shrinkers
The page cache and most shrinkable slab caches hold data that has been read from disk, but there are some caches that only cache CPU work, such as the dentry and inode caches of procfs and sysfs, as well as the subset of radix tree nodes that track non-resident page cache. Currently, all these are shrunk at the same rate: using DEFAULT_SEEKS for the shrinker's seeks setting tells the reclaim algorithm that for every two page cache pages scanned it should scan one slab object. This is a bogus setting. A virtual inode that required no IO to create is not twice as valuable as a page cache page; shadow cache entries with eviction distances beyond the size of memory aren't either. In most cases, the behavior in practice is still fine. Such virtual caches don't tend to grow and assert themselves aggressively, and usually get picked up before they cause problems. But there are scenarios where that's not true. Our database workloads suffer from two of those. For one, their file workingset is several times bigger than available memory, which has the kernel aggressively create shadow page cache entries for the non-resident parts of it. The workingset code does tell the VM that most of these are expendable, but the VM ends up balancing them 2:1 to cache pages as per the seeks setting. This is a huge waste of memory. These workloads also deal with tens of thousands of open files and use /proc for introspection, which ends up growing the proc_inode_cache to absurdly large sizes - again at the cost of valuable cache space, which isn't a reasonable trade-off, given that proc inodes can be re-created without involving the disk. This patch implements a "zero-seek" setting for shrinkers that results in a target ratio of 0:1 between their objects and IO-backed caches. This allows such virtual caches to grow when memory is available (they do cache/avoid CPU work after all), but effectively disables them as soon as IO-backed objects are under pressure. It then switches the shrinkers for procfs and sysfs metadata, as well as excess page cache shadow nodes, to the new zero-seek setting.

mm: workingset: tell cache transitions from workingset thrashing
Refaults happen during transitions between workingsets as well as in-place thrashing. Knowing the difference between the two has a range of applications, including measuring the impact of memory shortage on the system performance, as well as the ability to smarter balance pressure between the filesystem cache and the swap-backed workingset. During workingset transitions, inactive cache refaults and pushes out established active cache. When that active cache isn't stale, however, and also ends up refaulting, that's bonafide thrashing. Introduce a new page flag that tells on eviction whether the page has been active or not in its lifetime. This bit is then stored in the shadow entry, to classify refaults as transitioning or thrashing. How many page->flags does this leave us with on 32-bit? 20 bits are always page flags 21 if you have an MMU 23 with the zone bits for DMA, Normal, HighMem, Movable 29 with the sparsemem section bits 30 if PAE is enabled 31 with this patch. So on 32-bit PAE, that leaves 1 bit for distinguishing two NUMA nodes. If that's not enough, the system can switch to discontigmem and re-gain the 6 or 7 sparsemem section bits.

mm: workingset: don't drop refault information prematurely
Patch series "psi: pressure stall information for CPU, memory, and IO", v4. Overview PSI reports the overall wallclock time in which the tasks in a system (or cgroup) wait for (contended) hardware resources. This helps users understand the resource pressure their workloads are under, which allows them to rootcause and fix throughput and latency problems caused by overcommitting, underprovisioning, suboptimal job placement in a grid; as well as anticipate major disruptions like OOM. Real-world applications We're using the data collected by PSI (and its previous incarnation, memdelay) quite extensively at Facebook, and with several success stories. One usecase is avoiding OOM hangs/livelocks. The reason these happen is because the OOM killer is triggered by reclaim not being able to free pages, but with fast flash devices there is *always* some clean and uptodate cache to reclaim; the OOM killer never kicks in, even as tasks spend 90% of the time thrashing the cache pages of their own executables. There is no situation where this ever makes sense in practice. We wrote a <100 line POC python script to monitor memory pressure and kill stuff way before such pathological thrashing leads to full system losses that would require forcible hard resets. We've since extended and deployed this code into other places to guarantee latency and throughput SLAs, since they're usually violated way before the kernel OOM killer would ever kick in. It is available here: https://github.com/facebookincubator/oomd Eventually we probably want to trigger the in-kernel OOM killer based on extreme sustained pressure as well, so that Linux can avoid memory livelocks - which technically aren't deadlocks, but to the user indistinguishable from them - out of the box. We'd continue using OOMD as the first line of defense to ensure workload health and implement complex kill policies that are beyond the scope of the kernel. We also use PSI memory pressure for loadshedding. Our batch job infrastructure used to use heuristics based on various VM stats to anticipate OOM situations, with lackluster success. We switched it to PSI and managed to anticipate and avoid OOM kills and lockups fairly reliably. The reduction of OOM outages in the worker pool raised the pool's aggregate productivity, and we were able to switch that service to smaller machines. Lastly, we use cgroups to isolate a machine's main workload from maintenance crap like package upgrades, logging, configuration, as well as to prevent multiple workloads on a machine from stepping on each others' toes. We were not able to configure this properly without the pressure metrics; we would see latency or bandwidth drops, but it would often be hard to impossible to rootcause it post-mortem. We now log and graph pressure for the containers in our fleet and can trivially link latency spikes and throughput drops to shortages of specific resources after the fact, and fix the job config/scheduling. PSI has also received testing, feedback, and feature requests from Android and EndlessOS for the purpose of low-latency OOM killing, to intervene in pressure situations before the UI starts hanging. How do you use this feature? A kernel with CONFIG_PSI=y will create a /proc/pressure directory with 3 files: cpu, memory, and io. If using cgroup2, cgroups will also have cpu.pressure, memory.pressure and io.pressure files, which simply aggregate task stalls at the cgroup level instead of system-wide. The cpu file contains one line: some avg10=2.04 avg60=0.75 avg300=0.40 total=157656722 The averages give the percentage of walltime in which one or more tasks are delayed on the runqueue while another task has the CPU. They're recent averages over 10s, 1m, 5m windows, so you can tell short term trends from long term ones, similarly to the load average. The total= value gives the absolute stall time in microseconds. This allows detecting latency spikes that might be too short to sway the running averages. It also allows custom time averaging in case the 10s/1m/5m windows aren't adequate for the usecase (or are too coarse with future hardware). What to make of this "some" metric? If CPU utilization is at 100% and CPU pressure is 0, it means the system is perfectly utilized, with one runnable thread per CPU and nobody waiting. At two or more runnable tasks per CPU, the system is 100% overcommitted and the pressure average will indicate as much. From a utilization perspective this is a great state of course: no CPU cycles are being wasted, even when 50% of the threads were to go idle (as most workloads do vary). From the perspective of the individual job it's not great, however, and they would do better with more resources. Depending on what your priority and options are, raised "some" numbers may or may not require action. The memory file contains two lines: some avg10=70.24 avg60=68.52 avg300=69.91 total=3559632828 full avg10=57.59 avg60=58.06 avg300=60.38 total=3300487258 The some line is the same as for cpu, the time in which at least one task is stalled on the resource. In the case of memory, this includes waiting on swap-in, page cache refaults and page reclaim. The full line, however, indicates time in which *nobody* is using the CPU productively due to pressure: all non-idle tasks are waiting for memory in one form or another. Significant time spent in there is a good trigger for killing things, moving jobs to other machines, or dropping incoming requests, since neither the jobs nor the machine overall are making too much headway. The io file is similar to memory. Because the block layer doesn't have a concept of hardware contention right now (how much longer is my IO request taking due to other tasks?), it reports CPU potential lost on all IO delays, not just the potential lost due to competition. FAQ Q: How is PSI's CPU component different from the load average? A: There are several quirks in the load average that make it hard to impossible to tell how overcommitted the CPU really is. 1. The load average is reported as a raw number of active tasks. You need to know how many CPUs there are in the system, how many CPUs the workload is allowed to use, then think about what the proportion between load and the number of CPUs mean for the tasks trying to run. PSI reports the percentage of wallclock time in which tasks are waiting for a CPU to run on. It doesn't matter how many CPUs are present or usable. The number always tells the quality of life of tasks in the system or in a particular cgroup. 2. The shortest averaging window is 1m, which is extremely coarse, and it's sampled in 5s intervals. A *lot* can happen on a CPU in 5 seconds. This *may* be able to identify persistent long-term trends and very clear and obvious overloads, but it's unusable for latency spikes and more subtle overutilization. PSI's shortest window is 10s. It also exports the cumulative stall times (in microseconds) of synchronously recorded events. 3. On Linux, the load average for historical reasons includes all TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE tasks. This gives a broader sense of how busy the system is, but on the flipside it doesn't distinguish whether tasks are likely to contend over the CPU or IO - which obviously requires very different interventions from a sys admin or a job scheduler. PSI reports independent metrics for CPU and IO. You can tell which resource is making the tasks wait, but in conjunction still see how overloaded the system is overall. Q: What's the cost / performance impact of this feature? A: PSI's primary cost is in the scheduler, in particular task wakeups and sleeps. I benchmarked this code using Facebook's two most scheduling sensitive workloads: memcache and webserver. They handle a ton of small requests - lots of wakeups and sleeps with little actual work in between - so they tend to be canaries for scheduler regressions. In the tests, the boxes were handling live traffic over the course of several hours. Half the machines, the control, ran with CONFIG_PSI=n. For memcache I used eight machines total. They're 2-socket, 14 core, 56 thread boxes. The test runs for half the test period, flips the test and control kernels on the hardware to rule out HW factors, DC location etc., then runs the other half of the test. For the webservers, I used 32 machines total. They're single socket, 16 core, 32 thread machines. During the memcache test, CPU load was nopsi=78.05% psi=78.98% in the first half and nopsi=77.52% psi=78.25%, so PSI added between 0.7 and 0.9 percentage points to the CPU load, a difference of about 1%. UPDATE: I re-ran this test with the v3 version of this patch set and the CPU utilization was equivalent between test and control. UPDATE: v4 is on par with v3. As far as end-to-end request latency from the client perspective goes, we don't sample those finely enough to capture the requests going to those particular machines during the test, but we know the p50 turnaround time in this workload is 54us, and perf bench sched pipe on those machines show nopsi=5.232666 us/op and psi=5.587347 us/op, so this doesn't add much here either. The profile for the pipe benchmark shows: 0.87% sched-pipe [kernel.vmlinux] [k] psi_group_change 0.83% perf.real [kernel.vmlinux] [k] psi_group_change 0.82% perf.real [kernel.vmlinux] [k] psi_task_change 0.58% sched-pipe [kernel.vmlinux] [k] psi_task_change The webserver load is running inside 4 nested cgroup levels. The CPU load with both nopsi and psi kernels was indistinguishable at 81%. For comparison, we had to disable the cgroup cpu controller on the webservers because it added 4 percentage points to the CPU% during this same exact test. Versions of this accounting code now run on 80% of our fleet. None of our workloads have reported regressions during the rollout.

Nicely : done! This patch (of 9): If we keep just enough refault information to match the *current* page cache during reclaim time, we could lose a lot of events when there is only a temporary spike in non-cache memory consumption that pushes out all the cache. Once cache comes back, we won't see those refaults. They might not be actionable for LRU aging, but we want to know about them for measuring memory pressure.

This is a slight change in encoding to allow the use of an extra bit (we can now store BITS_PER_LONG - 1 bits in a value entry).

mm: add SHRINK_EMPTY shrinker methods return value
We need to distinguish the situations when shrinker has very small amount of objects (see vfs_pressure_ratio() called from super_cache_count()), and when it has no objects at all. Currently, in the both of these cases, shrinker::count_objects() returns 0. The patch introduces new SHRINK_EMPTY return value, which will be used for "no objects at all" case. It's is a refactoring mostly, as SHRINK_EMPTY is replaced by 0 by all callers of do_shrink_slab() in this patch, and all the magic will happen in further.

mm, truncate: do not check mapping for every page being truncated
During truncation, the mapping has already been checked for shmem and
dax so it's known that workingset_update_node is required.
This patch avoids the checks on mapping for each page being truncated.
In all other cases, a lookup helper is used to determine if
workingset_update_node() needs to be called. The one danger is that the
API is slightly harder to use as calling workingset_update_node directly
without checking for dax or shmem mappings could lead to surprises.
However, the API rarely needs to be used and hopefully the comment is
enough to give people the hint.

As you'd expect, the gain is marginal but it can be detected. The

given the impact on the microbenchmark.
radix_tree_update_node_t is a callback for some radix operations that
optionally passes in a private field. The only user of the callback is
workingset_update_node and as it no longer requires a mapping, the
private field is removed.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

mm: memcontrol: per-lruvec stats infrastructure
lruvecs are at the intersection of the NUMA node and memcg, which is the scope for most paging activity. Introduce a convenient accounting infrastructure that maintains statistics per node, per memcg, and the lruvec itself.

Merge branch 'idr-4.11' of git://git.infradead.org/users/willy/linux-dax
Pull IDR rewrite from Matthew Wilcox: "The most significant part of the following is the patch to rewrite the IDR & IDA to be clients of the radix tree. But there's much more, including an enhancement of the IDA to be significantly more space efficient, an IDR & IDA test suite, some improvements to the IDR API (and driver changes to take advantage of those improvements), several improvements to the radix tree test suite and RCU annotations. The IDR & IDA rewrite had a good spin in linux-next and Andrew's tree for most of the last cycle. Coupled with the IDR test suite, I feel pretty confident that any remaining bugs are quite hard to hit. 0-day did a great job of watching my git tree and pointing out problems; as it hit them, I added new test-cases to be sure not to be caught the same way twice" Willy goes on to expand a bit on the IDR rewrite rationale: "The radix tree and the IDR use very similar data structures. Merging the two codebases lets us share the memory allocation pools, and results in a net deletion of 500 lines of code. It also opens up the possibility of exposing more of the features of the radix tree to users of the IDR (and I have some interesting patches along those lines waiting for 4.12) It also shrinks the size of the 'struct idr' from 40 bytes to 24 which will shrink a fair few data structures that embed an IDR" * 'idr-4.11' of git://git.infradead.org/users/willy/linux-dax: (32 commits) radix tree test suite: Add config option for map shift idr: Add missing __rcu annotations radix-tree: Fix __rcu annotations radix-tree: Add rcu_dereference and rcu_assign_pointer calls radix tree test suite: Run iteration tests for longer radix tree test suite: Fix split/join memory leaks radix tree test suite: Fix leaks in regression2.c radix tree test suite: Fix leaky tests radix tree test suite: Enable address sanitizer radix_tree_iter_resume: Fix out of bounds error radix-tree: Store a pointer to the root in each node radix-tree: Chain preallocated nodes through ->parent radix tree test suite: Dial down verbosity with -v radix tree test suite: Introduce kmalloc_verbose idr: Return the deleted entry from idr_remove radix tree test suite: Build separate binaries for some tests ida: Use exceptional entries for small IDAs ida: Move ida_bitmap to a percpu variable Reimplement IDR and IDA using the radix tree radix-tree: Add radix_tree_iter_delete ... |

mm: workingset: move shadow entry tracking to radix tree exceptional tracking
Currently, we track the shadow entries in the page cache in the upper
bits of the radix_tree_node->count, behind the back of the radix tree
implementation. Because the radix tree code has no awareness of them,
we rely on random subtleties throughout the implementation (such as the
node->count != 1 check in the shrinking code, which is meant to exclude
multi-entry nodes but also happens to skip nodes with only one shadow
entry, as that's accounted in the upper bits). This is error prone and
has, in fact, caused the bug fixed in

When the shadow page shrinker tries to reclaim a radix tree node but finds it in an unexpected state - it should contain no pages, and non-zero shadow entries - there is no need to kill the executing task or even the entire system. Warn about the invalid state, then leave that tree node be. Simply don't put it back on the shadow LRU for future reclaim and move on.

which corresponds to the following sanity check in the shadow node
tracking:
BUG_ON(node->count & RADIX_TREE_COUNT_MASK);
The workingset code tracks radix tree nodes that exclusively contain
shadow entries of evicted pages in them, and this (somewhat obscure)
line checks whether there are real pages left that would interfere with
reclaim of the radix tree node under memory pressure.
While discussing ways how fuse might sneak pages into the radix tree
past the workingset code, Miklos pointed to replace_page_cache_page(),
and indeed there is a problem there: it properly accounts for the old
page being removed - __delete_from_page_cache() does that - but then
does a raw raw radix_tree_insert(), not accounting for the replacement
page. Eventually the page count bits in node->count underflow while
leaving the node incorrectly linked to the shadow node LRU.
To address this, make sure replace_page_cache_page() uses the tracked
page insertion code, page_cache_tree_insert(). This fixes the page
accounting and makes sure page-containing nodes are properly unlinked
from the shadow node LRU again.
Also, make the sanity checks a bit less obscure by using the helpers for
checking the number of pages and shadows in a radix tree node.

mm, memcg: move memcg limit enforcement from zones to nodes
Memcg needs adjustment after moving LRUs to the node. Limits are tracked per memcg but the soft-limit excess is tracked per zone. As global page reclaim is based on the node, it is easy to imagine a situation where a zone soft limit is exceeded even though the memcg limit is fine. This patch moves the soft limit tree the node. Technically, all the variable names should also change but people are already familiar by the meaning of "mz" even if "mn" would be a more appropriate name now.
