On architectures where a pgd entry may be shared between user and kernel
(e.g. ARM+LPAE), freeing page tables needs a ceiling other than 0.
This patch introduces a generic USER_PGTABLES_CEILING that arch code can
override. It is the responsibility of the arch code setting the ceiling
to ensure the complete freeing of the page tables (usually in
pgd_free()).

Since commit 2d11085e40 ("memcg: do not create memsw files if swap
accounting is disabled") memsw files are created only if memcg swap
accounting is enabled so it doesn't make any sense to check for it
explicitly in mem_cgroup_read(), mem_cgroup_write() and
mem_cgroup_reset().

Now, vmap_area_list is exported as VMCOREINFO for makedumpfile to get
the start address of vmalloc region (vmalloc_start). The address which
contains vmalloc_start value is represented as below:
vmap_area_list.next - OFFSET(vmap_area.list) + OFFSET(vmap_area.va_start)
However, both OFFSET(vmap_area.va_start) and OFFSET(vmap_area.list)
aren't exported as VMCOREINFO.
So this patch exports them externally with small cleanup.

Although our intention is to unexport internal structure entirely, but
there is one exception for kexec. kexec dumps address of vmlist and
makedumpfile uses this information.
We are about to remove vmlist, then another way to retrieve information

This patch is a preparatory step for removing vmlist entirely. For
above purpose, we change iterating a vmap_list codes to iterating a
vmap_area_list. It is somewhat trivial change, but just one thing
should be noticed.
Using vmap_area_list in vmallocinfo() introduce ordering problem in SMP
system. In s_show(), we retrieve some values from vm_struct.
vm_struct's values is not fully setup when va->vm is assigned. Full
setup is notified by removing VM_UNLIST flag without holding a lock.
When we see that VM_UNLIST is removed, it is not ensured that vm_struct
has proper values in view of other CPUs. So we need smp_[rw]mb for
ensuring that proper values is assigned when we see that VM_UNLIST is
removed.
Therefore, this patch not only change a iteration list, but also add a
appropriate smp_[rw]mb to right places.

vmlist is lack of information about some areas in vmalloc address space.
For example, vm_map_ram() allocate area in vmalloc address space, but it
doesn't make a link with vmlist. To provide full information about
vmalloc address space is better idea, so we don't use va->vm and use
vmap_area directly. This makes get_vmalloc_info() more precise.

Now, when we hold a vmap_area_lock, va->vm can't be discarded. So we can
safely access to va->vm when iterating a vmap_area_list with holding a
vmap_area_lock. With this property, change iterating vmlist codes in
vread/vwrite() to iterating vmap_area_list.
There is a little difference relate to lock, because vmlist_lock is mutex,
but, vmap_area_lock is spin_lock. It may introduce a spinning overhead
during vread/vwrite() is executing. But, these are debug-oriented
functions, so this overhead is not real problem for common case.

Inserting and removing an entry to vmlist is linear time complexity, so
it is inefficient. Following patches will try to remove vmlist
entirely. This patch is preparing step for it.
For removing vmlist, iterating vmlist codes should be changed to
iterating a vmap_area_list. Before implementing that, we should make
sure that when we iterate a vmap_area_list, accessing to va->vm doesn't
cause a race condition. This patch ensure that when iterating a
vmap_area_list, there is no race condition for accessing to vm_struct.

initiated without PG_writeback set, and set BIO_SNAP_STABLE there.
We must also flag journal "metadata" bios for stable writeout, since

Commit abf09bed3c ("s390/mm: implement software dirty bits")

replacing some more pte_xxx functions in mm/hugetlbfs.c with a
huge_pte_xxx version.
This patch introduces those huge_pte_xxx functions and their generic
implementation in asm-generic/hugetlb.h, which will now be included on
all architectures supporting hugetlbfs apart from s390. This change
will be a no-op for those architectures.

mem_cgroup_iter basically does two things currently. It takes care of
the house keeping (reference counting, raclaim cookie) and it iterates
through a hierarchy tree (by using cgroup generic tree walk). The code
would be much more easier to follow if we move the iteration outside of
the function (to __mem_cgrou_iter_next) so the distinction is more
clear. This patch doesn't introduce any functional changes.

The current implementation of mem_cgroup_iter has to consider both css
and memcg to find out whether no group has been found (css==NULL - aka
the loop is completed) and that no memcg is associated with the found
node (!memcg - aka css_tryget failed because the group is no longer
alive). This leads to awkward tweaks like tests for css && !memcg to
skip the current node.
It will be much easier if we got rid off css variable altogether and
only rely on memcg. In order to do that the iteration part has to skip
dead nodes. This sounds natural to me and as a nice side effect we will
get a simple invariant that memcg is always alive when non-NULL and all
nodes have been visited otherwise.
We could get rid of the surrounding while loop but keep it in for now to
make review easier. It will go away in the following patch.

Now that the per-node-zone-priority iterator caches memory cgroups
rather than their css ids we have to be careful and remove them from the
iterator when they are on the way out otherwise they might live for
unbounded amount of time even though their group is already gone (until
the global/targeted reclaim triggers the zone under priority to find out
the group is dead and let it to find the final rest).
We can fix this issue by relaxing rules for the last_visited memcg.
Instead of taking a reference to the css before it is stored into
iter->last_visited we can just store its pointer and track the number of
removed groups from each memcg's subhierarchy.
This number would be stored into iterator everytime when a memcg is
cached. If the iter count doesn't match the curent walker root's one we
will start from the root again. The group counter is incremented
upwards the hierarchy every time a group is removed.
The iter_lock can be dropped because racing iterators cannot leak the
reference anymore as the reference count is not elevated for
last_visited when it is cached.
Locking rules got a bit complicated by this change though. The iterator
primarily relies on rcu read lock which makes sure that once we see a
valid last_visited pointer then it will be valid for the whole RCU walk.
smp_rmb makes sure that dead_count is read before last_visited and
last_dead_count while smp_wmb makes sure that last_visited is updated
before last_dead_count so the up-to-date last_dead_count cannot point to
an outdated last_visited. css_tryget then makes sure that the
last_visited is still alive in case the iteration races with the cached
group removal (css is invalidated before mem_cgroup_css_offline
increments dead_count).
In short:
mem_cgroup_iter
rcu_read_lock()
dead_count = atomic_read(parent->dead_count)
smp_rmb()
if (dead_count != iter->last_dead_count)
last_visited POSSIBLY INVALID -> last_visited = NULL
if (!css_tryget(iter->last_visited))
last_visited DEAD -> last_visited = NULL
next = find_next(last_visited)
css_tryget(next)
css_put(last_visited) // css would be invalidated and parent->dead_count
// incremented if this was the last reference
iter->last_visited = next
smp_wmb()
iter->last_dead_count = dead_count
rcu_read_unlock()
cgroup_rmdir
cgroup_destroy_locked
atomic_add(CSS_DEACT_BIAS, &css->refcnt) // subsequent css_tryget fail
mem_cgroup_css_offline
mem_cgroup_invalidate_reclaim_iterators
while(parent = parent_mem_cgroup)
atomic_inc(parent->dead_count)
css_put(css) // last reference held by cgroup core

mem_cgroup_iter curently relies on css->id when walking down a group
hierarchy tree. This is really awkward because the tree walk depends on
the groups creation ordering. The only guarantee is that a parent node is
visited before its children.
Example:
1) mkdir -p a a/d a/b/c
2) mkdir -a a/b/c a/d
Will create the same trees but the tree walks will be different:
1) a, d, b, c
2) a, b, c, d
Commit 574bd9f7c7 ("cgroup: implement generic child / descendant walk
macros") has introduced generic cgroup tree walkers which provide either
pre-order or post-order tree walk. This patch converts css->id based
iteration to pre-order tree walk to keep the semantic with the original
iterator where parent is always visited before its subtree.
cgroup_for_each_descendant_pre suggests using post_create and
pre_destroy for proper synchronization with groups addidition resp.
removal. This implementation doesn't use those because a new memory
cgroup is initialized sufficiently for iteration in mem_cgroup_css_alloc
already and css reference counting enforces that the group is alive for
both the last seen cgroup and the found one resp. it signals that the
group is dead and it should be skipped.
If the reclaim cookie is used we need to store the last visited group
into the iterator so we have to be careful that it doesn't disappear in
the mean time. Elevated reference count on the css keeps it alive even
though the group have been removed (parked waiting for the last dput so
that it can be freed).
Per node-zone-prio iter_lock has been introduced to ensure that
css_tryget and iter->last_visited is set atomically. Otherwise two
racing walkers could both take a references and only one release it
leading to a css leak (which pins cgroup dentry).

The patchset tries to make mem_cgroup_iter saner in the way how it walks
hierarchies. css->id based traversal is far from being ideal as it is not
deterministic because it depends on the creation ordering. Additional to
that css_id is considered a burden for cgroup maintainers because it is
quite some code and memcg is the last user of it. After this series only
the swap accounting uses css_id but that one will follow up later.
Diffstat (if we exclude removed/added comments) looks quite
promising. We got rid of some code:
$ git diff mmotm... | grep -v "^[+-][[:space:]]*[/ ]\*" | diffstat
b/include/linux/cgroup.h | 3 ---
kernel/cgroup.c | 33 ---------------------------------
mm/memcontrol.c | 4 +++-
3 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 37 deletions(-)
The first patch is just preparatory and it changes when we release css of
the previously returned memcg. Nothing controlversial.
The second patch is the core of the patchset and it replaces css_get_next
based on css_id by the generic cgroup pre-order. This brings some
chalanges for the last visited group caching during the reclaim
(mem_cgroup_per_zone::reclaim_iter). We have to use memcg pointers
directly now which means that we have to keep a reference to those groups'
css to keep them alive.
I also folded iter_lock introduced by https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/1/3/295
in the previous version into this patch. Johannes felt the race I was
describing should be mostly harmless and I haven't been able to trigger it
so the lock doesn't deserve its own patch. It is still needed
temporarily, though, because the reference counting on iter->last_visited
depends on it. It will go away with the next patch.
The next patch fixups an unbounded cgroup removal holdoff caused by the
elevated css refcount. The issue has been observed by Ying Han. Johannes
wasn't impressed by the previous version of the fix
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/2/8/379) which cleaned up pending references
during mem_cgroup_css_offline when a group is removed. He has suggested a
different way when the iterator checks whether a cached memcg is still
valid or no. More on that in the patch but the basic idea is that every
memcg tracks the number removed subgroups and iterator records this number
when a group is cached. These numbers are checked before
iter->last_visited is about to be used and the iteration is restarted if
it is invalid.
The fourth and fifth patches are an attempt for simplification of the
mem_cgroup_iter. css juggling is removed and the iteration logic is moved
to a helper so that the reference counting and iteration are separated.
The last patch just removes css_get_next as there is no user for it any
longer.
My testing looked as follows:
A (use_hierarchy=1, limit_in_bytes=150M)
/|\
1 2 3
Children groups were created so that the number is never higher than 3 and
their limits were random between 50-100M. Each group hosts a kernel build
(starting with tar -xf so the tree is not shared and make -jNUM_CPUs/3)
and terminated after random time - up to 5 minutes) and then it is
removed.
This should exercise both leaf and hierarchical reclaim as well as races
with cgroup removals and debugging messages I added on top proved that.
100 groups were created during the test.
This patch:
css reference counting keeps the cgroup alive even though it has been
already removed. mem_cgroup_iter relies on this fact and takes a
reference to the returned group. The reference is then released on the
next iteration or mem_cgroup_iter_break. mem_cgroup_iter currently
releases the reference right after it gets the last css_id.
This is correct because neither prev's memcg nor cgroup are accessed after
then. This will change in the next patch so we need to hold the group
alive a bit longer so let's move the css_put at the end of the function.

pages into the buddy system when initializing mm subsystem.
Introduction of free_highmem_page() is one step forward to clean up
accesses and modificaitons of totalhigh_pages, totalram_pages and
zone->managed_pages etc. I hope we could remove all references to
totalhigh_pages from the arch/ subdirectory.
We have only tested these patchset on x86 platforms, and have done basic
compliation tests using cross-compilers from ftp.kernel.org. That means
some code may not pass compilation on some architectures. So any help
to test this patchset are welcomed!
There are several other parts still under development:
Part3: refine code to manage totalram_pages, totalhigh_pages and
zone->managed_pages
Part4: introduce helper functions to simplify mem_init() and remove the
global variable num_physpages.
This patch:
Introduce helper function free_highmem_page(), which will be used by
architectures with HIGHMEM enabled to free highmem pages into the buddy
system.

The original goal of this patchset is to fix the bug reported by
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53501
Now it has also been expanded to reduce common code used by memory
initializion.
This is the first part, which applies to v3.9-rc1.
It introduces following common helper functions to simplify
free_initmem() and free_initrd_mem() on different architectures:
adjust_managed_page_count():
will be used to adjust totalram_pages, totalhigh_pages,
zone->managed_pages when reserving/unresering a page.
__free_reserved_page():
free a reserved page into the buddy system without adjusting
page statistics info
free_reserved_page():
free a reserved page into the buddy system and adjust page
statistics info
mark_page_reserved():
mark a page as reserved and adjust page statistics info
free_reserved_area():
free a continous ranges of pages by calling free_reserved_page()
free_initmem_default():
default method to free __init pages.
We have only tested these patchset on x86 platforms, and have done basic
compliation tests using cross-compilers from ftp.kernel.org. That means
some code may not pass compilation on some architectures. So any help to
test this patchset are welcomed!
There are several other parts still under development:
Part2: introduce free_highmem_page() to simplify freeing highmem pages
Part3: refine code to manage totalram_pages, totalhigh_pages and
zone->managed_pages
Part4: introduce helper functions to simplify mem_init() and remove the
global variable num_physpages.
This patch:
Code to deal with reserved/managed pages are duplicated by many
architectures, so introduce common help functions to reduce duplicated
code. These common help functions will also be used to concentrate code
to modify totalram_pages and zone->managed_pages, which makes the code
much more clear.

This came to light when calling memblock allocator from arc port (for
copying flattended DT). If a "0" alignment is passed, the allocator
round_up() call incorrectly rounds up the size to 0.
round_up(num, alignto) => ((num - 1) | (alignto -1)) + 1
While the obvious allocation failure causes kernel to panic, it is better
to warn the caller to fix the code.
Tejun suggested that instead of BUG_ON(!align) - which might be
ineffective due to pending console init and such, it is better to WARN_ON,
and continue the boot with a reasonable default align.
Caller passing @size need not be handled similarly as the subsequent
panic will indicate that anyhow.

On large systems with a lot of memory, walking all RAM to determine page
types may take a half second or even more.
In non-blockable contexts, the page allocator will emit a page allocation
failure warning unless __GFP_NOWARN is specified. In such contexts, irqs
are typically disabled and such a lengthy delay may even result in NMI
watchdog timeouts.
To fix this, suppress the page walk in such contexts when printing the
page allocation failure warning.

Use the events API to trace filemap loading and unloading of file pieces
into the page cache.
This patch aims at tracing the eviction reload cycle of executable and
shared libraries pages in a memory constrained environment.
The typical usage is to spot a specific device and inode (for example
/lib/libc.so) to see the eviction cycles, and find out if frequently
used code is rather spread across many pages (bad) or coallesced (good).

Currently page_action() does not check dirty flag to determine whether

cause any misjudgement because we do matching against "dirty

I think we could just move the full vm_iomap_memory() function into

Here's the fairly minimal stub to make the nommu case at least

With applying the previous patch "hugetlbfs: stop setting VM_DONTDUMP in
initializing vma(VM_HUGETLB)" to reenable hugepage coredump, if a memory
error happens on a hugepage and the affected processes try to access the
error hugepage, we hit VM_BUG_ON(atomic_read(&page->_count) <= 0) in
get_page().
The reason for this bug is that coredump-related code doesn't recognise
"hugepage hwpoison entry" with which a pmd entry is replaced when a memory
error occurs on a hugepage.
In other words, physical address information is stored in different bit
layout between hugepage hwpoison entry and pmd entry, so
follow_hugetlb_page() which is called in get_dump_page() returns a wrong
page from a given address.
The expected behavior is like this:
absent is_swap_pte FOLL_DUMP Expected behavior
-------------------------------------------------------------------
true false false hugetlb_fault
false true false hugetlb_fault
false false false return page
true false true skip page (to avoid allocation)
false true true hugetlb_fault
false false true return page
With this patch, we can call hugetlb_fault() and take proper actions (we
wait for migration entries, fail with VM_FAULT_HWPOISON_LARGE for
hwpoisoned entries,) and as the result we can dump all hugepages except
for hwpoisoned ones.

Various drivers end up replicating the code to mmap() their memory
buffers into user space, and our core memory remapping function may be
very flexible but it is unnecessarily complicated for the common cases
to use.
Our internal VM uses pfn's ("page frame numbers") which simplifies
things for the VM, and allows us to pass physical addresses around in a
denser and more efficient format than passing a "phys_addr_t" around,
and having to shift it up and down by the page size. But it just means
that drivers end up doing that shifting instead at the interface level.
It also means that drivers end up mucking around with internal VM things
like the vma details (vm_pgoff, vm_start/end) way more than they really
need to.
So this just exports a function to map a certain physical memory range
into user space (using a phys_addr_t based interface that is much more
natural for a driver) and hides all the complexity from the driver.
Some drivers will still end up tweaking the vm_page_prot details for
things like prefetching or cacheability etc, but that's actually
relevant to the driver, rather than caring about what the page offset of
the mapping is into the particular IO memory region.

This patch attempts to fix:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56461
The symptom is a crash and messages like this:
chrome: Corrupted page table at address 34a03000
*pdpt = 0000000000000000 *pde = 0000000000000000
Bad pagetable: 000f [#1] PREEMPT SMP
Ingo guesses this got introduced by commit 611ae8e3f5 ("x86/tlb:
enable tlb flush range support for x86") since that code started to free
unused pagetables.
On x86-32 PAE kernels, that new code has the potential to free an entire
PMD page and will clear one of the four page-directory-pointer-table
(aka pgd_t entries).
The hardware aggressively "caches" these top-level entries and invlpg
does not actually affect the CPU's copy. If we clear one we *HAVE* to
do a full TLB flush, otherwise we might continue using a freed pmd page.
(note, we do this properly on the population side in pud_populate()).
This patch tracks whenever we clear one of these entries in the 'struct
mmu_gather', and ensures that we follow up with a full tlb flush.
BTW, I disassembled and checked that:
if (tlb->fullmm == 0)
and
if (!tlb->fullmm && !tlb->need_flush_all)
generate essentially the same code, so there should be zero impact there
to the !PAE case.

This reverts commit 1869305009 ("mm: introduce VM_POPULATE flag to
better deal with racy userspace programs").
VM_POPULATE only has any effect when userspace plays racy games with
vmas by trying to unmap and remap memory regions that mmap or mlock are
operating on.
Also, the only effect of VM_POPULATE when userspace plays such games is
that it avoids populating new memory regions that get remapped into the
address range that was being operated on by the original mmap or mlock
calls.
Let's remove VM_POPULATE as there isn't any strong argument to mandate a
new vm_flag.

hugetlb_total_pages is used for overcommit calculations but the current
implementation considers only the default hugetlb page size (which is
either the first defined hugepage size or the one specified by
default_hugepagesz kernel boot parameter).
If the system is configured for more than one hugepage size, which is
possible since commit a137e1cc6d ("hugetlbfs: per mount huge page
sizes") then the overcommit estimation done by __vm_enough_memory()
(resp. shown by meminfo_proc_show) is not precise - there is an
impression of more available/allowed memory. This can lead to an
unexpected ENOMEM/EFAULT resp. SIGSEGV when memory is accounted.
Testcase:
boot: hugepagesz=1G hugepages=1

The vm_flags introduced in 6d7825b10d ("mm/fremap.c: fix oops on error
path") is supposed to avoid a compiler warning about unitialized
vm_flags without changing the generated code.
However I am concerned that this is going to be very brittle, and fail
with some compiler versions. The failure could be either of:
- compiler could actually load vma->vm_flags before checking for the
!vma condition, thus reintroducing the oops
- compiler could optimize out the !vma check, since the pointer just got
dereferenced shortly before (so the compiler knows it can't be NULL!)
I propose reversing this part of the change and initializing vm_flags to 0
just to avoid the bogus uninitialized use warning.

contains NULL. Fix it by checking the pointer.
(We could alternatively check for err==0, but this seems more direct)
(The vm_flags change is to squish a bogus used-uninitialised warning
without adding extra code).

remove_memory() calls walk_memory_range() with [start_pfn, end_pfn), where
end_pfn is exclusive in this range. Therefore, end_pfn needs to be set to
the next page of the end address.

In commit 887cbce0ad ("arch Kconfig: centralise ARCH_NO_VIRT_TO_BUS")
I introduced the config sybmol HAVE_VIRT_TO_BUS and selected that where
needed. I am not sure what I was thinking. Instead, just directly
select VIRT_TO_BUS where it is needed.

Looking at mm/process_vm_access.c:process_vm_rw() and comparing it to
compat_process_vm_rw() shows that the compatibility code requires an
explicit "access_ok()" check before calling
compat_rw_copy_check_uvector(). The same difference seems to appear when
we compare fs/read_write.c:do_readv_writev() to
fs/compat.c:compat_do_readv_writev().
This subtle difference between the compat and non-compat requirements
should probably be debated, as it seems to be error-prone. In fact,
there are two others sites that use this function in the Linux kernel,
and they both seem to get it wrong:
Now shifting our attention to fs/aio.c, we see that aio_setup_iocb()
also ends up calling compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() through
aio_setup_vectored_rw(). Unfortunately, the access_ok() check appears to
be missing. Same situation for
security/keys/compat.c:compat_keyctl_instantiate_key_iov().
I propose that we add the access_ok() check directly into
compat_rw_copy_check_uvector(), so callers don't have to worry about it,
and it therefore makes the compat call code similar to its non-compat
counterpart. Place the access_ok() check in the same location where
copy_from_user() can trigger a -EFAULT error in the non-compat code, so
the ABI behaviors are alike on both compat and non-compat.
While we are here, fix compat_do_readv_writev() so it checks for
compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() negative return values.
And also, fix a memory leak in compat_keyctl_instantiate_key_iov() error
handling.

A CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM=y m68k config gave
mm/ksm.c: In function `get_kpfn_nid':
mm/ksm.c:492: error: implicit declaration of function `pfn_to_nid'
linux/mmzone.h declares it for CONFIG_SPARSEMEM and CONFIG_FLATMEM, but
expects the arch's asm/mmzone.h to declare it for CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM
(see arch/mips/include/asm/mmzone.h for example).
Or perhaps it is only expected when CONFIG_NUMA=y: too much of a maze,
and m68k got away without it so far, so fix the build in mm/ksm.c.
