Slab merge is good feature to reduce fragmentation. If new creating slab
have similar size and property with exsitent slab, this feature reuse it
rather than creating new one. As a result, objects are packed into fewer
slabs so that fragmentation is reduced.
Below is result of my testing.
* After boot, sleep 20; cat /proc/meminfo | grep Slab
<Before>
Slab: 25136 kB
<After>
Slab: 24364 kB
We can save 3% memory used by slab.
For supporting this feature in SLAB, we need to implement SLAB specific
kmem_cache_flag() and __kmem_cache_alias(), because SLUB implements some
SLUB specific processing related to debug flag and object size change on
these functions.

After discussions with Tejun, we don't want to spread the use of
cpu_to_mem() (and thus knowledge of allocators/NUMA topology details) into
callers, but would rather ensure the callees correctly handle memoryless
nodes. With the previous patches ("topology: add support for
node_to_mem_node() to determine the fallback node" and "slub: fallback to
node_to_mem_node() node if allocating on memoryless node") adding and
using node_to_mem_node(), we can safely undo part of the change to the
kthread logic from 81c98869fa.

Anton noticed (http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg67489.html) that
on ppc LPARs with memoryless nodes, a large amount of memory was consumed
by slabs and was marked unreclaimable. He tracked it down to slab
deactivations in the SLUB core when we allocate remotely, leading to poor
efficiency always when memoryless nodes are present.
After much discussion, Joonsoo provided a few patches that help
significantly. They don't resolve the problem altogether:
- memory hotplug still needs testing, that is when a memoryless node
becomes memory-ful, we want to dtrt
- there are other reasons for going off-node than memoryless nodes,
e.g., fully exhausted local nodes
Neither case is resolved with this series, but I don't think that should
block their acceptance, as they can be explored/resolved with follow-on
patches.
The series consists of:
[1/3] topology: add support for node_to_mem_node() to determine the
fallback node
[2/3] slub: fallback to node_to_mem_node() node if allocating on
memoryless node
- Joonsoo's patches to cache the nearest node with memory for each
NUMA node
[3/3] Partial revert of 81c98869fa (""kthread: ensure locality of
task_struct allocations")
- At Tejun's request, keep the knowledge of memoryless node fallback
to the allocator core.
This patch (of 3):
We need to determine the fallback node in slub allocator if the allocation
target node is memoryless node. Without it, the SLUB wrongly select the
node which has no memory and can't use a partial slab, because of node
mismatch. Introduced function, node_to_mem_node(X), will return a node Y
with memory that has the nearest distance. If X is memoryless node, it
will return nearest distance node, but, if X is normal node, it will
return itself.
We will use this function in following patch to determine the fallback
node.

Now, we track caller if tracing or slab debugging is enabled. If they are
disabled, we could save one argument passing overhead by calling
__kmalloc(_node)(). But, I think that it would be marginal. Furthermore,
default slab allocator, SLUB, doesn't use this technique so I think that
it's okay to change this situation.
After this change, we can turn on/off CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB without full

We don't need to keep kmem_cache definition in include/linux/slab.h if we
don't need to inline kmem_cache_size(). According to my code inspection,
this function is only called at lc_create() in lib/lru_cache.c which may
be called at initialization phase of something, so we don't need to inline
it. Therfore, move it to slab_common.c and move kmem_cache definition to
internal header.
After this change, we can change kmem_cache definition easily without full
kernel build. For instance, we can turn on/off CONFIG_SLUB_STATS without
full kernel build.

On some ARCHs modules range is eauql to vmalloc range. E.g on i686
"#define MODULES_VADDR VMALLOC_START"
"#define MODULES_END VMALLOC_END"
This will cause 2 duplicate program segments in /proc/kcore, and no flag
to indicate they are different. This is confusing. And usually people
who need check the elf header or read the content of kcore will check
memory ranges. Two program segments which are the same are unnecessary.
So check if the modules range is equal to vmalloc range. If so, just skip
adding the modules range.

However, it also checks that m_next_vma(vma) != NULL, otherwise it

m_start() can simply do find_vma() + m_next_vma() if last_addr is

- Remove the unnecessary "vma != NULL" check in the main loop. It
can't be NULL unless we have a vm bug.
- This also means that "pos < map_count" case can simply return the

m_start() carefully documents, checks, and sets "m->version = -1" if
we are going to return NULL. The only problem is that we will be never
called again if m_start() returns NULL, so this is simply pointless
and misleading.
Otoh, ->show() methods m->version = 0 if vma == tail_vma and this is
just wrong, we want -1 in this case. And in fact we also want -1 if
->vm_next == NULL and ->tail_vma == NULL.
And it is not used consistently, the "scan vmas" loop in m_start()
should update last_addr too.
Finally, imo the whole "last_addr" logic in m_start() looks horrible.
find_vma(last_addr) is called unconditionally even if we are not going
to use the result. But the main problem is that this code participates
in tail_vma-or-NULL mess, and this looks simply unfixable.
Remove this optimization. We will add it back after some cleanups.

returns NULL.
And if it was possible the 2nd "vma != tail_vma" check is buggy,
we should not wrongly return ->tail_vma.

m_start() drops ->mmap_sem and does mmput() if it retuns vsyscall
vma. This is because in this case m_stop()->vma_stop() obviously
can't use gate_vma->vm_mm.
Now that we have proc_maps_private->mm we can simplify this logic:
- Change m_start() to return with ->mmap_sem held unless it returns
IS_ERR_OR_NULL().
- Change vma_stop() to use priv->mm and avoid the ugly vma checks,
this makes "vm_area_struct *vma" unnecessary.
- This also allows m_start() to use vm_stop().
- Cleanup m_next() to follow the new locking rule.
Note: m_stop() looks very ugly, and this temporary uglifies it
even more. Fixed by the next change.

this doesn't even look right if the task changes its ->mm between m_stop()
and m_start().
Add the new "mm_struct *mm" member into struct proc_maps_private and change
proc_maps_open() to initialize it using proc_mem_open(). Change m_start() to
use priv->mm if atomic_inc_not_zero(mm_users) succeeds or return NULL (eof)
otherwise.
The only complication is that proc_maps_open() users should additionally do
mmdrop() in fop->release(), add the new proc_map_release() helper for that.
Note: this is the user-visible change, if the task execs after open("maps")
the new ->mm won't be visible via this file. I hope this is fine, and this
matches /proc/pid/mem bahaviour.

do_maps_open() and numa_maps_open() are overcomplicated, they could use
__seq_open_private(). Plus they do the same, just sizeof(*priv)
Change them to use a new simple helper, proc_maps_open(ops, psize). This
simplifies the code and allows us to do the next changes.

get_gate_vma(priv->task->mm) looks ugly and wrong, task->mm can be NULL or
it can changed by exec right after mm_access().
And in theory this race is not harmless, the task can exec and then later
exit and free the new mm_struct. In this case get_task_mm(oldmm) can't
help, get_gate_vma(task->mm) can read the freed/unmapped memory.
I think that priv->task should simply die and hold_task_mempolicy() logic
can be simplified. tail_vma logic asks for cleanups too.

For now, soft lockup detector warns once for each case of process
softlockup. But the thread 'watchdog/n' may not always get the cpu at the
time slot between the task switch of two processes hogging that cpu to
reset soft_watchdog_warn.
An example would be two processes hogging the cpu. Process A causes the
softlockup warning and is killed manually by a user. Process B
immediately becomes the new process hogging the cpu preventing the
softlockup code from resetting the soft_watchdog_warn variable.
This case is a false negative of "warn only once for a process", as there
may be a different process that is going to hog the cpu. Resolve this by
saving/checking the task pointer of the hogging process and use that to
reset soft_watchdog_warn too.

For commit ocfs2 journal, ocfs2 journal thread will acquire the mutex
osb->journal->j_trans_barrier and wake up jbd2 commit thread, then it
will wait until jbd2 commit thread done. In order journal mode, jbd2
needs flushing dirty data pages first, and this needs get page lock.
So osb->journal->j_trans_barrier should be got before page lock.
But ocfs2_write_zero_page() and ocfs2_write_begin_inline() obey this
locking order, and this will cause deadlock and hung the whole cluster.
One deadlock catched is the following:

o2hb_callback_sem.
Currently there are 2 nodes say N1, N2 in the cluster. And N2 down, at
the same time, N3 tries to join the cluster. So N1 will handle node
down (N2) and join (N3) simultaneously.

Firing quorum before connection established can cause unexpected node to
reboot.
Assume there are 3 nodes in the cluster, Node 1, 2, 3. Node 2 and 3 have
wrong ip address of Node 1 in cluster.conf and global heartbeat is enabled
in the cluster. After the heatbeats are started on these three nodes,
Node 1 will reboot due to quorum fencing. It is similar case if Node 1's
networking is not ready when starting the global heartbeat.
The reboot is not friendly as customer is not fully ready for ocfs2 to
work. Fix it by not allowing firing quorum before the connection is
established. In this case, ocfs2 will wait until the wrong configuration
is fixed or networking is up to continue. Also update the log to guide
the user where to check when connection is not built for a long time.

According to commit 80af258867 ("fanotify: groups can specify their
f_flags for new fd"), file descriptors created as part of file access
notification events inherit flags from the event_f_flags argument passed
to syscall fanotify_init(2)[1].
Unfortunately O_CLOEXEC is currently silently ignored.
Indeed, event_f_flags are only given to dentry_open(), which only seems to
care about O_ACCMODE and O_PATH in do_dentry_open(), O_DIRECT in
open_check_o_direct() and O_LARGEFILE in generic_file_open().
It's a pity, since, according to some lookup on various search engines and
http://codesearch.debian.net/, there's already some userspace code which
use O_CLOEXEC:
- in systemd's readahead[2]:
fanotify_fd = fanotify_init(FAN_CLOEXEC|FAN_NONBLOCK, O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE|O_CLOEXEC|O_NOATIME);
- in clsync[3]:
#define FANOTIFY_EVFLAGS (O_LARGEFILE|O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC)
int fanotify_d = fanotify_init(FANOTIFY_FLAGS, FANOTIFY_EVFLAGS);
- in examples [4] from "Filesystem monitoring in the Linux
kernel" article[5] by Aleksander Morgado:
if ((fanotify_fd = fanotify_init (FAN_CLOEXEC,
O_RDONLY | O_CLOEXEC | O_LARGEFILE)) < 0)
Additionally, since commit 48149e9d3a ("fanotify: check file flags
passed in fanotify_init"). having O_CLOEXEC as part of fanotify_init()
second argument is expressly allowed.
So it seems expected to set close-on-exec flag on the file descriptors if
userspace is allowed to request it with O_CLOEXEC.
But Andrew Morton raised[6] the concern that enabling now close-on-exec
might break existing applications which ask for O_CLOEXEC but expect the
file descriptor to be inherited across exec().
In the other hand, as reported by Mihai Dontu[7] close-on-exec on the file
descriptor returned as part of file access notify can break applications
due to deadlock. So close-on-exec is needed for most applications.
More, applications asking for close-on-exec are likely expecting it to be
enabled, relying on O_CLOEXEC being effective. If not, it might weaken
their security, as noted by Jan Kara[8].
So this patch replaces call to macro get_unused_fd() by a call to function
get_unused_fd_flags() with event_f_flags value as argument. This way
O_CLOEXEC flag in the second argument of fanotify_init(2) syscall is
interpreted and close-on-exec get enabled when requested.
