Starting from 4.9-rc1 kernel, I started noticing some test failures of
sendfile(2) and splice(2) (sendfile0N and splice01 from LTP) when
testing on sub-page block size filesystems (tested both XFS and ext4),
these syscalls start to return EIO in the tests. e.g.
sendfile02 1 TFAIL : sendfile02.c:133: sendfile(2) failed to return expected value, expected: 26, got: -1
sendfile02 2 TFAIL : sendfile02.c:133: sendfile(2) failed to return expected value, expected: 24, got: -1
sendfile02 3 TFAIL : sendfile02.c:133: sendfile(2) failed to return expected value, expected: 22, got: -1
sendfile02 4 TFAIL : sendfile02.c:133: sendfile(2) failed to return expected value, expected: 20, got: -1
This is because that in sub-page block size cases, we don't need the
whole page to be uptodate, only the part we care about is uptodate is OK
(if fs has ->is_partially_uptodate defined).
But page_cache_pipe_buf_confirm() doesn't have the ability to check the
partially-uptodate case, it needs the whole page to be uptodate. So it
returns EIO in this case.
This is a regression introduced by commit 82c156f853 ("switch
generic_file_splice_read() to use of ->read_iter()"). Prior to the
change, generic_file_splice_read() doesn't allow partially-uptodate page
either, so it worked fine.
Fix it by skipping the partially-uptodate check if we're working on a
pipe in do_generic_file_read(), so we read the whole page from disk as
long as the page is not uptodate.
I think the other way to fix it is to add the ability to check & allow
partially-uptodate page to page_cache_pipe_buf_confirm(), but that is
much harder to do and seems gain little.

Error paths in hugetlb_cow() and hugetlb_no_page() may free a newly
allocated huge page.
If a reservation was associated with the huge page, alloc_huge_page()
consumed the reservation while allocating. When the newly allocated
page is freed in free_huge_page(), it will increment the global
reservation count. However, the reservation entry in the reserve map
will remain.
This is not an issue for shared mappings as the entry in the reserve map
indicates a reservation exists. But, an entry in a private mapping
reserve map indicates the reservation was consumed and no longer exists.
This results in an inconsistency between the reserve map and the global
reservation count. This 'leaks' a reserved huge page.
Create a new routine restore_reserve_on_error() to restore the reserve
entry in these specific error paths. This routine makes use of a new
function vma_add_reservation() which will add a reserve entry for a
specific address/page.
In general, these error paths were rarely (if ever) taken on most
architectures. However, powerpc contained arch specific code that that
resulted in an extra fault and execution of these error paths on all
private mappings.

DAX PMDs have been disabled since Jan Kara introduced DAX radix tree based
locking. This patch allows DAX PMDs to participate in the DAX radix tree
based locking scheme so that they can be re-enabled using the new struct
iomap based fault handlers.
There are currently three types of DAX 4k entries: 4k zero pages, 4k DAX
mappings that have an associated block allocation, and 4k DAX empty
entries. The empty entries exist to provide locking for the duration of a
given page fault.
This patch adds three equivalent 2MiB DAX entries: Huge Zero Page (HZP)
entries, PMD DAX entries that have associated block allocations, and 2 MiB
DAX empty entries.
Unlike the 4k case where we insert a struct page* into the radix tree for
4k zero pages, for HZP we insert a DAX exceptional entry with the new
RADIX_DAX_HZP flag set. This is because we use a single 2 MiB zero page in
every 2MiB hole mapping, and it doesn't make sense to have that same struct
page* with multiple entries in multiple trees. This would cause contention
on the single page lock for the one Huge Zero Page, and it would break the
page->index and page->mapping associations that are assumed to be valid in
many other places in the kernel.
One difficult use case is when one thread is trying to use 4k entries in
radix tree for a given offset, and another thread is using 2 MiB entries
for that same offset. The current code handles this by making the 2 MiB
user fall back to 4k entries for most cases. This was done because it is
the simplest solution, and because the use of 2MiB pages is already
opportunistic.
If we were to try to upgrade from 4k pages to 2MiB pages for a given range,
we run into the problem of how we lock out 4k page faults for the entire
2MiB range while we clean out the radix tree so we can insert the 2MiB
entry. We can solve this problem if we need to, but I think that the cases
where both 2MiB entries and 4K entries are being used for the same range
will be rare enough and the gain small enough that it probably won't be
worth the complexity.

DAX radix tree locking currently locks entries based on the unique
combination of the 'mapping' pointer and the pgoff_t 'index' for the entry.
This works for PTEs, but as we move to PMDs we will need to have all the
offsets within the range covered by the PMD to map to the same bit lock.
To accomplish this, for ranges covered by a PMD entry we will instead lock
based on the page offset of the beginning of the PMD entry. The 'mapping'
pointer is still used in the same way.

On later kernels, kmem charging is opt-in rather than opt-out, and that
particular kmem allocation in btrfs_releasepage() is no longer being
charged and won't recurse and overrun the stack anymore.
But it's not impossible for an accounted allocation to happen from the
memcg direct reclaim context, and we needed to reproduce this crash many
times before we even got a useful stack trace out of it.
Like other direct reclaimers, mark tasks in memcg reclaim PF_MEMALLOC to
avoid recursing into any other form of direct reclaim. Then let
recursive charges from PF_MEMALLOC contexts bypass the cgroup limit.

On large systems, when some slab caches grow to millions of objects (and
many gigabytes), running 'cat /proc/slabinfo' can take up to 1-2
seconds. During this time, interrupts are disabled while walking the
slab lists (slabs_full, slabs_partial, and slabs_free) for each node,
and this sometimes causes timeouts in other drivers (for instance,
Infiniband).
This patch optimizes 'cat /proc/slabinfo' by maintaining a counter for
total number of allocated slabs per node, per cache. This counter is
updated when a slab is created or destroyed. This enables us to skip
traversing the slabs_full list while gathering slabinfo statistics, and
since slabs_full tends to be the biggest list when the cache is large,
it results in a dramatic performance improvement. Getting slabinfo
statistics now only requires walking the slabs_free and slabs_partial
lists, and those lists are usually much smaller than slabs_full.
We tested this after growing the dentry cache to 70GB, and the
performance improved from 2s to 5ms.

As described in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=177821:
After some analysis it seems to be that the problem is in alloc_super().
In case list_lru_init_memcg() fails it goes into destroy_super(), which
calls list_lru_destroy().
And in list_lru_init() we see that in case memcg_init_list_lru() fails,
lru->node is freed, but not set NULL, which then leads list_lru_destroy()
to believe it is initialized and call memcg_destroy_list_lru().
memcg_destroy_list_lru() in turn can access lru->node[i].memcg_lrus,
which is NULL.

There is a bug report that SLAB makes extreme load average due to over
2000 kworker thread.
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=172981
This issue is caused by kmemcg feature that try to create new set of
kmem_caches for each memcg. Recently, kmem_cache creation is slowed by
synchronize_sched() and futher kmem_cache creation is also delayed since
kmem_cache creation is synchronized by a global slab_mutex lock. So,
the number of kworker that try to create kmem_cache increases quietly.
synchronize_sched() is for lockless access to node's shared array but
it's not needed when a new kmem_cache is created. So, this patch rules
out that case.

When I removed the per-zone bitlock hashed waitqueues in commit
9dcb8b685f ("mm: remove per-zone hashtable of bitlock waitqueues"), I
removed all the magic hotplug memory initialization of said waitqueues
too.
But when I actually _tested_ the resulting build, I stupidly assumed
that "allmodconfig" would enable memory hotplug. And it doesn't,
because it enables KASAN instead, which then disables hotplug memory
support.
As a result, my build test of the per-zone waitqueues was totally
broken, and I didn't notice that the compiler warns about the now unused
iterator variable 'i'.
I guess I should be happy that that seems to be the worst breakage from
my clearly horribly failed test coverage.

The per-zone waitqueues exist because of a scalability issue with the
page waitqueues on some NUMA machines, but it turns out that they hurt
normal loads, and now with the vmalloced stacks they also end up
breaking gfs2 that uses a bit_wait on a stack object:
wait_on_bit(&gh->gh_iflags, HIF_WAIT, TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE)
where 'gh' can be a reference to the local variable 'mount_gh' on the
stack of fill_super().
The reason the per-zone hash table breaks for this case is that there is
no "zone" for virtual allocations, and trying to look up the physical
page to get at it will fail (with a BUG_ON()).
It turns out that I actually complained to the mm people about the
per-zone hash table for another reason just a month ago: the zone lookup
also hurts the regular use of "unlock_page()" a lot, because the zone
lookup ends up forcing several unnecessary cache misses and generates
horrible code.
As part of that earlier discussion, we had a much better solution for
the NUMA scalability issue - by just making the page lock have a
separate contention bit, the waitqueue doesn't even have to be looked at
for the normal case.
Peter Zijlstra already has a patch for that, but let's see if anybody
even notices. In the meantime, let's fix the actual gfs2 breakage by
simplifying the bitlock waitqueues and removing the per-zone issue.

were more useful back when the whole "free init memory" was
originally done.
These days, if we have a use-after-free, I suspect the init-mem
situation is the easiest situation by far. Compared to all the dynamic
allocations which are much more likely to show it anyway. So having
debug output for that case is likely not all that productive."

This patch unexports the low-level __get_user_pages() function.
Recent refactoring of the get_user_pages* functions allow flags to be
passed through get_user_pages() which eliminates the need for access to
this function from its one user, kvm.
We can see that the two calls to get_user_pages() which replace
__get_user_pages() in kvm_main.c are equivalent by examining their call
stacks:
get_user_page_nowait():
get_user_pages(start, 1, flags, page, NULL)
__get_user_pages_locked(current, current->mm, start, 1, page, NULL, NULL,
false, flags | FOLL_TOUCH)
__get_user_pages(current, current->mm, start, 1,
flags | FOLL_TOUCH | FOLL_GET, page, NULL, NULL)
check_user_page_hwpoison():
get_user_pages(addr, 1, flags, NULL, NULL)
__get_user_pages_locked(current, current->mm, addr, 1, NULL, NULL, NULL,
false, flags | FOLL_TOUCH)
__get_user_pages(current, current->mm, addr, 1, flags | FOLL_TOUCH, NULL,

"This is fallout from CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_VMAP_STACK=y on x86: stack

buggy.
These changes try to do it without breaking the ABI: the fields are
left there, they are just reporting zero, or reporting narrower

Asking for a non-current task's stack can't be done without races
unless the task is frozen in kernel mode. As far as I know,
vm_is_stack_for_task() never had a safe non-current use case.
The __unused annotation is because some KSTK_ESP implementations

The percpu allocator expectedly assumes that the requested alignment
is power of two but hasn't been veryfing the input. If the specified
alignment isn't power of two, the allocator can malfunction. Add the
sanity check.
The following is detailed analysis of the effects of alignments which
aren't power of two.
The alignment must be a even at least since the LSB of a chunk->map
element is used as free/in-use flag of a area; besides, the alignment
must be a power of 2 too since ALIGN() doesn't work well for other
alignment always but is adopted by pcpu_fit_in_area(). IOW, the
current allocator only works well for a power of 2 aligned area
allocation.
See below opposite example for why an odd alignment doesn't work.
Let's assume area [16, 36) is free but its previous one is in-use, we
want to allocate a @size == 8 and @align == 7 area. The larger area
[16, 36) is split to three areas [16, 21), [21, 29), [29, 36)
eventually. However, due to the usage for a chunk->map element, the
actual offset of the aim area [21, 29) is 21 but is recorded in
relevant element as 20; moreover, the residual tail free area [29,
36) is mistook as in-use and is lost silently
Unlike macro roundup(), ALIGN(x, a) doesn't work if @a isn't a power
of 2 for example, roundup(10, 6) == 12 but ALIGN(10, 6) == 10, and
the latter result isn't desired obviously.

Merge the gup_flags cleanups from Lorenzo Stoakes:
"This patch series adjusts functions in the get_user_pages* family such
that desired FOLL_* flags are passed as an argument rather than
implied by flags.
The purpose of this change is to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit
so it is easier to grep for and clearer to callers that this flag is
being used. The use of FOLL_FORCE is an issue as it overrides missing
VM_READ/VM_WRITE flags for the VMA whose pages we are reading
from/writing to, which can result in surprising behaviour.
The patch series came out of the discussion around commit 38e0885465
("mm: check VMA flags to avoid invalid PROT_NONE NUMA balancing"),
which addressed a BUG_ON() being triggered when a page was faulted in
with PROT_NONE set but having been overridden by FOLL_FORCE.
do_numa_page() was run on the assumption the page _must_ be one marked
for NUMA node migration as an actual PROT_NONE page would have been
dealt with prior to this code path, however FOLL_FORCE introduced a
situation where this assumption did not hold.
See
https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=147585445805166
for the patch proposal"
Additionally, there's a fix for an ancient bug related to FOLL_FORCE and
FOLL_WRITE by me.

This is an ancient bug that was actually attempted to be fixed once
(badly) by me eleven years ago in commit 4ceb5db975 ("Fix
get_user_pages() race for write access") but that was then undone due to
problems on s390 by commit f33ea7f404 ("fix get_user_pages bug").
In the meantime, the s390 situation has long been fixed, and we can now
fix it by checking the pte_dirty() bit properly (and do it better). The
s390 dirty bit was implemented in abf09bed3c ("s390/mm: implement
software dirty bits") which made it into v3.9. Earlier kernels will
have to look at the page state itself.
Also, the VM has become more scalable, and what used a purely
theoretical race back then has become easier to trigger.
To fix it, we introduce a new internal FOLL_COW flag to mark the "yes,
we already did a COW" rather than play racy games with FOLL_WRITE that
is very fundamental, and then use the pte dirty flag to validate that
the FOLL_COW flag is still valid.

We already also had the warning disabled separately for mm/usercopy.c
(which this commit also removes), and it turns out that we will also
want to disable it for get_lock_parent_ip(), that is used for at least
TRACE_IRQFLAGS. Which (when enabled) ends up being all over the tree.
Steven Rostedt had a patch that tried to limit it to just the config
options that actually triggered this, but quite frankly, the extra
complexity and abstraction just isn't worth it. We have never actually
had a case where the warning is actually useful, so let's just disable
it globally and not worry about it.

Some of the kmemleak_*() callbacks in memblock, bootmem, CMA convert a
physical address to a virtual one using __va(). However, such physical
addresses may sometimes be located in highmem and using __va() is
incorrect, leading to inconsistent object tracking in kmemleak.
The following functions have been added to the kmemleak API and they take
a physical address as the object pointer. They only perform the
corresponding action if the address has a lowmem mapping:
kmemleak_alloc_phys
kmemleak_free_part_phys
kmemleak_not_leak_phys
kmemleak_ignore_phys
The affected calling places have been updated to use the new kmemleak
API.

The __latent_entropy gcc attribute can be used only on functions and
variables. If it is on a function then the plugin will instrument it for
gathering control-flow entropy. If the attribute is on a variable then
the plugin will initialize it with random contents. The variable must
be an integer, an integer array type or a structure with integer fields.
These specific functions have been selected because they are init
functions (to help gather boot-time entropy), are called at unpredictable
times, or they have variable loops, each of which provide some level of
latent entropy.

This adds a new gcc plugin named "latent_entropy". It is designed to
extract as much possible uncertainty from a running system at boot time as
possible, hoping to capitalize on any possible variation in CPU operation
(due to runtime data differences, hardware differences, SMP ordering,
thermal timing variation, cache behavior, etc).
At the very least, this plugin is a much more comprehensive example for
how to manipulate kernel code using the gcc plugin internals.
The need for very-early boot entropy tends to be very architecture or
system design specific, so this plugin is more suited for those sorts
of special cases. The existing kernel RNG already attempts to extract
entropy from reliable runtime variation, but this plugin takes the idea to
a logical extreme by permuting a global variable based on any variation
in code execution (e.g. a different value (and permutation function)
is used to permute the global based on loop count, case statement,
if/then/else branching, etc).
To do this, the plugin starts by inserting a local variable in every
marked function. The plugin then adds logic so that the value of this
variable is modified by randomly chosen operations (add, xor and rol) and
random values (gcc generates separate static values for each location at
compile time and also injects the stack pointer at runtime). The resulting
value depends on the control flow path (e.g., loops and branches taken).
Before the function returns, the plugin mixes this local variable into
the latent_entropy global variable. The value of this global variable
is added to the kernel entropy pool in do_one_initcall() and _do_fork(),
though it does not credit any bytes of entropy to the pool; the contents
of the global are just used to mix the pool.
Additionally, the plugin can pre-initialize arrays with build-time
random contents, so that two different kernel builds running on identical
hardware will not have the same starting values.

"This is the final step of Protection Keys support which adds the
syscalls so user space can actually allocate keys and protect memory
areas with them. Details and usage examples can be found in the
documentation.
The mm side of this has been acked by Mel"

by making sure we call iov_iter_advance() on original

It's a no-op for old iov_iter flavours and does the right thing
(== truncation of the stuff we'd allocated, but not filled) in
ITER_PIPE case. Failures (e.g. -EIO) get caught and dealt with
by cleanup in generic_file_read_iter().

When the huge page is added to the page cahce (huge_add_to_page_cache),
the page private flag will be cleared. since this code
(remove_inode_hugepages) will only be called for pages in the page
cahce, PagePrivate(page) will always be false.

Currently we do warn only about allocation failures but small
allocations are basically nofail and they might loop in the page
allocator for a long time. Especially when the reclaim cannot make any
progress - e.g. GFP_NOFS cannot invoke the oom killer and rely on a
different context to make a forward progress in case there is a lot
memory used by filesystems.
Give us at least a clue when something like this happens and warn about
allocations which take more than 10s. Print the basic allocation
context information along with the cumulative time spent in the
allocation as well as the allocation stack. Repeat the warning after
every 10 seconds so that we know that the problem is permanent rather
than ephemeral.

warn_alloc_failed is currently used from the page and vmalloc
allocators. This is a good reuse of the code except that vmalloc would
appreciate a slightly different warning message. This is already
handled by the fmt parameter except that
"%s: page allocation failure: order:%u, mode:%#x(%pGg)"
is printed anyway. This might be quite misleading because it might be a
vmalloc failure which leads to the warning while the page allocator is
not the culprit here. Fix this by always using the fmt string and only
print the context that makes sense for the particular context (e.g.
order makes only very little sense for the vmalloc context).
Rename the function to not miss any user and also because a later patch
will reuse it also for !failure cases.

We triggered a deadloop in truncate_inode_pages_range() on 32 bits
architecture with the test case bellow:
...
fd = open();
write(fd, buf, 4096);
preadv64(fd, &iovec, 1, 0xffffffff000);
ftruncate(fd, 0);
...
Then ftruncate() will not return forever.
The filesystem used in this case is ubifs, but it can be triggered on
many other filesystems.
When preadv64() is called with offset=0xffffffff000, a page with
index=0xffffffff will be added to the radix tree of ->mapping. Then
this page can be found in ->mapping with pagevec_lookup(). After that,
truncate_inode_pages_range(), which is called in ftruncate(), will fall
into an infinite loop:
- find a page with index=0xffffffff, since index>=end, this page won't
be truncated
- index++, and index become 0
- the page with index=0xffffffff will be found again
The data type of index is unsigned long, so index won't overflow to 0 on
64 bits architecture in this case, and the dead loop won't happen.
Since truncate_inode_pages_range() is executed with holding lock of
inode->i_rwsem, any operation related with this lock will be blocked,
and a hung task will happen, e.g.:
INFO: task truncate_test:3364 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

The page with index=0xffffffff added to ->mapping is useless. Fix this
by checking the read position before allocating pages.

So all nodes but Node 0 have a lot of free memory which should suggest
that there is an available memory especially when mems_allowed=0-7. One
could speculate that a massive process has managed to terminate and free
up a lot of memory while racing with the above allocation request.
Although this is highly unlikely it cannot be ruled out.
A further debugging, however shown that the faulting process had
mempolicy (not cpuset) to bind to Node 0. We cannot see that
information from the report though. mems_allowed turned out to be more
confusing than really helpful.
Fix this by always priting the nodemask. It is either mempolicy mask
(and non-null) or the one defined by the cpusets. The new output for
the above oom report would be
PoolThread invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x280da(GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE|__GFP_ZERO), nodemask=0, order=0, oom_adj=0, oom_score_adj=0
This patch doesn't touch show_mem and the node filtering based on the
cpuset node mask because mempolicy is always a subset of cpusets and
seeing the full cpuset oom context might be helpful for tunning more
specific mempolicies inside cpusets (e.g. when they turn out to be too
restrictive). To prevent from ugly ifdefs the mask is printed even for
!NUMA configurations but this should be OK (a single node will be
printed).

The old code was always doing:
vma->vm_end = next->vm_end
vma_rb_erase(next) // in __vma_unlink
vma->vm_next = next->vm_next // in __vma_unlink
next = vma->vm_next
vma_gap_update(next)
The new code still does the above for remove_next == 1 and 2, but for
remove_next == 3 it has been changed and it does:
next->vm_start = vma->vm_start
vma_rb_erase(vma) // in __vma_unlink
vma_gap_update(next)
In the latter case, while unlinking "vma", validate_mm_rb() is told to
ignore "vma" that is being removed, but next->vm_start was reduced
instead. So for the new case, to avoid the false positive from
validate_mm_rb, it should be "next" that is ignored when "vma" is
being unlinked.
"vma" and "next" in the above comment, considered pre-swap().

The rmap_walk can access vm_page_prot (and potentially vm_flags in the
pte/pmd manipulations). So it's not safe to wait the caller to update
the vm_page_prot/vm_flags after vma_merge returned potentially removing
the "next" vma and extending the "current" vma over the
next->vm_start,vm_end range, but still with the "current" vma
vm_page_prot, after releasing the rmap locks.
The vm_page_prot/vm_flags must be transferred from the "next" vma to the
current vma while vma_merge still holds the rmap locks.
The side effect of this race condition is pte corruption during migrate
as remove_migration_ptes when run on a address of the "next" vma that
got removed, used the vm_page_prot of the current vma.
migrate mprotect
------------ -------------
migrating in "next" vma
vma_merge() # removes "next" vma and
# extends "current" vma
# current vma is not with
# vm_page_prot updated
remove_migration_ptes
read vm_page_prot of current "vma"
establish pte with wrong permissions
vm_set_page_prot(vma) # too late!
change_protection in the old vma range
only, next range is not updated
This caused segmentation faults and potentially memory corruption in
heavy mprotect loads with some light page migration caused by compaction
in the background.
Hugh Dickins pointed out the comment about the Odd case 8 in vma_merge
which confirms the case 8 is only buggy one where the race can trigger,
in all other vma_merge cases the above cannot happen.
This fix removes the oddness factor from case 8 and it converts it from:
AAAA
PPPPNNNNXXXX -> PPPPNNNNNNNN
to:
AAAA
PPPPNNNNXXXX -> PPPPXXXXXXXX
XXXX has the right vma properties for the whole merged vma returned by
vma_adjust, so it solves the problem fully. It has the added benefits
that the callers could stop updating vma properties when vma_merge
succeeds however the callers are not updated by this patch (there are
bits like VM_SOFTDIRTY that still need special care for the whole range,
as the vma merging ignores them, but as long as they're not processed by
rmap walks and instead they're accessed with the mmap_sem at least for
reading, they are fine not to be updated within vma_adjust before
releasing the rmap_locks).

mm->highest_vm_end doesn't need any update.
After finally removing the oddness from vma_merge case 8 that was
causing:
1) constant risk of trouble whenever anybody would check vma fields
from rmap_walks, like it happened when page migration was
introduced and it read the vma->vm_page_prot from a rmap_walk
2) the callers of vma_merge to re-initialize any value different from
the current vma, instead of vma_merge() more reliably returning a
vma that already matches all fields passed as parameter
.. it is also worth to take the opportunity of cleaning up superfluous
code in vma_adjust(), that if not removed adds up to the hard
readability of the function.

According to Hugh's suggestion, alloc_stable_node() with GFP_KERNEL can
in rare cases cause a hung task warning.
At present, if alloc_stable_node() allocation fails, two break_cows may
want to allocate a couple of pages, and the issue will come up when free
memory is under pressure.
We fix it by adding __GFP_HIGH to GFP, to grant access to memory
reserves, increasing the likelihood of allocation success.

For every pfn aligned to minimum_order, dissolve_free_huge_pages() will
call dissolve_free_huge_page() which takes the hugetlb spinlock, even if
the page is not huge at all or a hugepage that is in-use.
Improve this by doing the PageHuge() and page_count() checks already in
dissolve_free_huge_pages() before calling dissolve_free_huge_page(). In
dissolve_free_huge_page(), when holding the spinlock, those checks need
to be revalidated.

In dissolve_free_huge_pages(), free hugepages will be dissolved without
making sure that there are enough of them left to satisfy hugepage
reservations.
Fix this by adding a return value to dissolve_free_huge_pages() and
checking h->free_huge_pages vs. h->resv_huge_pages. Note that this may
lead to the situation where dissolve_free_huge_page() returns an error
and all free hugepages that were dissolved before that error are lost,
while the memory block still cannot be set offline.

Patch series "mm/hugetlb: memory offline issues with hugepages", v4.
This addresses several issues with hugepages and memory offline. While
the first patch fixes a panic, and is therefore rather important, the
last patch is just a performance optimization.
The second patch fixes a theoretical issue with reserved hugepages,
while still leaving some ugly usability issue, see description.
This patch (of 3):
dissolve_free_huge_pages() will either run into the VM_BUG_ON() or a
list corruption and addressing exception when trying to set a memory
block offline that is part (but not the first part) of a "gigantic"
hugetlb page with a size > memory block size.
When no other smaller hugetlb page sizes are present, the VM_BUG_ON()
will trigger directly. In the other case we will run into an addressing
exception later, because dissolve_free_huge_page() will not work on the
head page of the compound hugetlb page which will result in a NULL
hstate from page_hstate().
To fix this, first remove the VM_BUG_ON() because it is wrong, and then
use the compound head page in dissolve_free_huge_page(). This means
that an unused pre-allocated gigantic page that has any part of itself
inside the memory block that is going offline will be dissolved
completely. Losing an unused gigantic hugepage is preferable to failing
the memory offline, for example in the situation where a (possibly
faulty) memory DIMM needs to go offline.

Now, patch "oom, suspend: fix oom_killer_disable vs. pm suspend

raced with disabling the OOM killer and the system is OOM livelocked,
the OOM killer will be enabled eventually (in 20 seconds by default) and
the OOM livelock will be solved. Therefore, we no longer need to warn

Fragmentation index and the vm.extfrag_threshold sysctl is meant as a
heuristic to prevent excessive compaction for costly orders (i.e. THP).
It's unlikely to make any difference for non-costly orders, especially
with the default threshold. But we cannot afford any uncertainty for
the non-costly orders where the only alternative to successful
reclaim/compaction is OOM. After the recent patches we are guaranteed
maximum effort without heuristics from compaction before deciding OOM,
and fragindex is the last remaining heuristic. Therefore skip fragindex
altogether for non-costly orders.

The compaction_zonelist_suitable() function tries to determine if
compaction will be able to proceed after sufficient reclaim, i.e.
whether there are enough reclaimable pages to provide enough order-0
freepages for compaction.
This addition of reclaimable pages to the free pages works well for the
order-0 watermark check, but in the fragmentation index check we only
consider truly free pages. Thus we can get fragindex value close to 0
which indicates failure do to lack of memory, and wrongly decide that
compaction won't be suitable even after reclaim.
Instead of trying to somehow adjust fragindex for reclaimable pages,
let's just skip it from compaction_zonelist_suitable().

Several people have reported premature OOMs for order-2 allocations
(stack) due to OOM rework in 4.7. In the scenario (parallel kernel
build and dd writing to two drives) many pageblocks get marked as
Unmovable and compaction free scanner struggles to isolate free pages.
Joonsoo Kim pointed out that the free scanner skips pageblocks that are
not movable to prevent filling them and forcing non-movable allocations
to fallback to other pageblocks. Such heuristic makes sense to help
prevent long-term fragmentation, but premature OOMs are relatively more
urgent problem. As a compromise, this patch disables the heuristic only
for the ultimate compaction priority.

The new ultimate compaction priority disables some heuristics, which may
result in excessive cost. This is fine for non-costly orders where we
want to try hard before resulting for OOM, but might be disruptive for
costly orders which do not trigger OOM and should generally have some
fallback. Thus, we disable the full priority for costly orders.

During reclaim/compaction loop, compaction priority can be increased by
the should_compact_retry() function, but the current code is not
optimal. Priority is only increased when compaction_failed() is true,
which means that compaction has scanned the whole zone. This may not
happen even after multiple attempts with a lower priority due to
parallel activity, so we might needlessly struggle on the lower
priorities and possibly run out of compaction retry attempts in the
process.
After this patch we are guaranteed at least one attempt at the highest
compaction priority even if we exhaust all retries at the lower
priorities.

Patch series "reintroduce compaction feedback for OOM decisions".
After several people reported OOM's for order-2 allocations in 4.7 due
to Michal Hocko's OOM rework, he reverted the part that considered
compaction feedback [1] in the decisions to retry reclaim/compaction.
This was to provide a fix quickly for 4.8 rc and 4.7 stable series,
while mmotm had an almost complete solution that instead improved
compaction reliability.
This series completes the mmotm solution and reintroduces the compaction
feedback into OOM decisions. The first two patches restore the state of
mmotm before the temporary solution was merged, the last patch should be
the missing piece for reliability. The third patch restricts the
hardened compaction to non-costly orders, since costly orders don't
result in OOMs in the first place.

Commit 6b4e3181d7 ("mm, oom: prevent premature OOM killer invocation

still want to consider compaction feedback, which should be possible
after some more improvements in the following patches.
This reverts commit 6b4e3181d7.

This patch is to improve the performance of swap cache operations when
the type of the swap device is not 0. Originally, the whole swap entry
value is used as the key of the swap cache, even though there is one
radix tree for each swap device. If the type of the swap device is not
0, the height of the radix tree of the swap cache will be increased
unnecessary, especially on 64bit architecture. For example, for a 1GB
swap device on the x86_64 architecture, the height of the radix tree of
the swap cache is 11. But if the offset of the swap entry is used as
the key of the swap cache, the height of the radix tree of the swap
cache is 4. The increased height causes unnecessary radix tree
descending and increased cache footprint.
This patch reduces the height of the radix tree of the swap cache via
using the offset of the swap entry instead of the whole swap entry value
as the key of the swap cache. In 32 processes sequential swap out test
case on a Xeon E5 v3 system with RAM disk as swap, the lock contention
for the spinlock of the swap cache is reduced from 20.15% to 12.19%,
when the type of the swap device is 1.

The global zero page is used to satisfy an anonymous read fault. If
THP(Transparent HugePage) is enabled then the global huge zero page is
used. The global huge zero page uses an atomic counter for reference
counting and is allocated/freed dynamically according to its counter
value.
CPU time spent on that counter will greatly increase if there are a lot
of processes doing anonymous read faults. This patch proposes a way to
reduce the access to the global counter so that the CPU load can be
reduced accordingly.
To do this, a new flag of the mm_struct is introduced:
MMF_USED_HUGE_ZERO_PAGE. With this flag, the process only need to touch
the global counter in two cases:
1 The first time it uses the global huge zero page;
2 The time when mm_user of its mm_struct reaches zero.
Note that right now, the huge zero page is eligible to be freed as soon
as its last use goes away. With this patch, the page will not be
eligible to be freed until the exit of the last process from which it
was ever used.
And with the use of mm_user, the kthread is not eligible to use huge
zero page either. Since no kthread is using huge zero page today, there
is no difference after applying this patch. But if that is not desired,
I can change it to when mm_count reaches zero.
Case used for test on Haswell EP:
usemem -n 72 --readonly -j 0x200000 100G
Which spawns 72 processes and each will mmap 100G anonymous space and
then do read only access to that space sequentially with a step of 2MB.

In current kernel code, we only call node_set_state(cpu_to_node(cpu),
N_CPU) when a cpu is hot plugged. But we do not set the node state for
N_CPU when the cpus are brought online during boot.
So this could lead to failure when we check to see if a node contains
cpu with node_state(node_id, N_CPU).
One use case is in the node_reclaime function:
/*
* Only run node reclaim on the local node or on nodes that do
* not
* have associated processors. This will favor the local
* processor
* over remote processors and spread off node memory allocations
* as wide as possible.
*/
if (node_state(pgdat->node_id, N_CPU) && pgdat->node_id !=
numa_node_id())
return NODE_RECLAIM_NOSCAN;
I instrumented the kernel to call this function after boot and it always
returns 0 on a x86 desktop machine until I apply the attached patch.
int num_cpu_node(void)
{
int i, nr_cpu_nodes = 0;
for_each_node(i) {
if (node_state(i, N_CPU))
++ nr_cpu_nodes;
}
return nr_cpu_nodes;
}
Fix this by checking each node for online CPU when we initialize
vmstat that's responsible for maintaining node state.

When CONFIG_FS_DAX_PMD is set, DAX supports mmap() using pmd page size.
This feature relies on both mmap virtual address and FS block (i.e.
physical address) to be aligned by the pmd page size. Users can use
mkfs options to specify FS to align block allocations. However,
aligning mmap address requires code changes to existing applications for
providing a pmd-aligned address to mmap().
For instance, fio with "ioengine=mmap" performs I/Os with mmap() [1].
It calls mmap() with a NULL address, which needs to be changed to
provide a pmd-aligned address for testing with DAX pmd mappings.
Changing all applications that call mmap() with NULL is undesirable.
Add thp_get_unmapped_area(), which can be called by filesystem's
get_unmapped_area to align an mmap address by the pmd size for a DAX
file. It calls the default handler, mm->get_unmapped_area(), to find a
range and then aligns it for a DAX file.
The patch is based on Matthew Wilcox's change that allows adding support
of the pud page size easily.

When one vma was with flag VM_LOCKED|VM_LOCKONFAULT (by invoking
mlock2(,MLOCK_ONFAULT)), it can again be populated with mlock() with
VM_LOCKED flag only.
There is a hole in mlock_fixup() which increase mm->locked_vm twice even
the two operations are on the same vma and both with VM_LOCKED flags.
The issue can be reproduced by following code:
mlock2(p, 1024 * 64, MLOCK_ONFAULT); //VM_LOCKED|VM_LOCKONFAULT
mlock(p, 1024 * 64); //VM_LOCKED
Then check the increase VmLck field in /proc/pid/status(to 128k).
When vma is set with different vm_flags, and the new vm_flags is with
VM_LOCKED, it is not necessarily be a "new locked" vma. This patch
corrects this bug by prevent mm->locked_vm from increment when old
vm_flags is already VM_LOCKED.

In do_mlock(), the check against locked memory limitation has a hole
which will fail following cases at step 3):
1) User has a memory chunk from addressA with 50k, and user mem lock
rlimit is 64k.
2) mlock(addressA, 30k)
3) mlock(addressA, 40k)
The 3rd step should have been allowed since the 40k request is
intersected with the previous 30k at step 2), and the 3rd step is
actually for mlock on the extra 10k memory.
This patch checks vma to caculate the actual "new" mlock size, if

Since the lumpy reclaim is gone there is no source of higher order pages
if CONFIG_COMPACTION=n except for the order-0 pages reclaim which is
unreliable for that purpose to say the least. Hitting an OOM for
!costly higher order requests is therefore all not that hard to imagine.
We are trying hard to not invoke OOM killer as much as possible but
there is simply no reliable way to detect whether more reclaim retries
make sense.
Disabling COMPACTION is not widespread but it seems that some users
might have disable the feature without realizing full consequences
(mostly along with disabling THP because compaction used to be THP
mainly thing). This patch just adds a note if the OOM killer was
triggered by higher order request with compaction disabled. This will
help us identifying possible misconfiguration right from the oom report
which is easier than to always keep in mind that somebody might have
disabled COMPACTION without a good reason.

File pages use a set of radix tree tags (DIRTY, TOWRITE, WRITEBACK,
etc.) to accelerate finding the pages with a specific tag in the radix
tree during inode writeback. But for anonymous pages in the swap cache,
there is no inode writeback. So there is no need to find the pages with
some writeback tags in the radix tree. It is not necessary to touch
radix tree writeback tags for pages in the swap cache.
Per Rik van Riel's suggestion, a new flag AS_NO_WRITEBACK_TAGS is
introduced for address spaces which don't need to update the writeback
tags. The flag is set for swap caches. It may be used for DAX file
systems, etc.
With this patch, the swap out bandwidth improved 22.3% (from ~1.2GB/s to
~1.48GBps) 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. The improvement comes from
the reduced contention on the swap cache radix tree lock. To test
sequential swapping out, the test case uses 8 processes, which
sequentially allocate and write to the anonymous pages until RAM and
part of the swap device is used up.

Currently arch specific code can reserve memory blocks but
alloc_large_system_hash() may not take it into consideration when sizing
the hashes. This can lead to bigger hash than required and lead to no
available memory for other purposes. This is specifically true for
systems with CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT enabled.
One approach to solve this problem would be to walk through the memblock
regions and calculate the available memory and base the size of hash
system on the available memory.
The other approach would be to depend on the architecture to provide the
number of pages that are reserved. This change provides hooks to allow
the architecture to provide the required info.

oom reaper was skipped for an mm which is shared with the kernel thread
(aka use_mm()). The primary concern was that such a kthread might want
to read from the userspace memory and see zero page as a result of the
oom reaper action. This is no longer a problem after "mm: make sure
that kthreads will not refault oom reaped memory" because any attempt to
fault in when the MMF_UNSTABLE is set will result in SIGBUS and so the
target user should see an error. This means that we can finally allow
oom reaper also to tasks which share their mm with kthreads.

There are only few use_mm() users in the kernel right now. Most of them
write to the target memory but vhost driver relies on
copy_from_user/get_user from a kernel thread context. This makes it
impossible to reap the memory of an oom victim which shares the mm with
the vhost kernel thread because it could see a zero page unexpectedly
and theoretically make an incorrect decision visible outside of the
killed task context.
To quote Michael S. Tsirkin:
: Getting an error from __get_user and friends is handled gracefully.
: Getting zero instead of a real value will cause userspace
: memory corruption.
The vhost kernel thread is bound to an open fd of the vhost device which
is not tight to the mm owner life cycle in general. The device fd can
be inherited or passed over to another process which means that we
really have to be careful about unexpected memory corruption because
unlike for normal oom victims the result will be visible outside of the
oom victim context.
Make sure that no kthread context (users of use_mm) can ever see
corrupted data because of the oom reaper and hook into the page fault
path by checking MMF_UNSTABLE mm flag. __oom_reap_task_mm will set the
flag before it starts unmapping the address space while the flag is
checked after the page fault has been handled. If the flag is set then
SIGBUS is triggered so any g-u-p user will get a error code.
Regular tasks do not need this protection because all which share the mm
are killed when the mm is reaped and so the corruption will not outlive
them.
This patch shouldn't have any visible effect at this moment because the
OOM killer doesn't invoke oom reaper for tasks with mm shared with
kthreads yet.

Commit 7407054209 ("oom, suspend: fix oom_reaper vs.
oom_killer_disable race") has workaround an existing race between
oom_killer_disable and oom_reaper by adding another round of
try_to_freeze_tasks after the oom killer was disabled. This was the
easiest thing to do for a late 4.7 fix. Let's fix it properly now.
After "oom: keep mm of the killed task available" we no longer have to
call exit_oom_victim from the oom reaper because we have stable mm
available and hide the oom_reaped mm by MMF_OOM_SKIP flag. So let's
remove exit_oom_victim and the race described in the above commit
doesn't exist anymore if.
Unfortunately this alone is not sufficient for the oom_killer_disable
usecase because now we do not have any reliable way to reach
exit_oom_victim (the victim might get stuck on a way to exit for an
unbounded amount of time). OOM killer can cope with that by checking mm
flags and move on to another victim but we cannot do the same for
oom_killer_disable as we would lose the guarantee of no further
interference of the victim with the rest of the system. What we can do
instead is to cap the maximum time the oom_killer_disable waits for
victims. The only current user of this function (pm suspend) already
has a concept of timeout for back off so we can reuse the same value
there.
Let's drop set_freezable for the oom_reaper kthread because it is no
longer needed as the reaper doesn't wake or thaw any processes.

We can, however, mark the mm with a MMF flag in __mmput. We can reuse

oom_reap_task has to call exit_oom_victim in order to make sure that the
oom vicim will not block the oom killer for ever. This is, however,
opening new problems (e.g oom_killer_disable exclusion - see commit
7407054209 ("oom, suspend: fix oom_reaper vs. oom_killer_disable
race")). exit_oom_victim should be only called from the victim's
context ideally.
One way to achieve this would be to rely on per mm_struct flags. We
already have MMF_OOM_REAPED to hide a task from the oom killer since
"mm, oom: hide mm which is shared with kthread or global init". The
problem is that the exit path:
do_exit
exit_mm
tsk->mm = NULL;
mmput
__mmput
exit_oom_victim
doesn't guarantee that exit_oom_victim will get called in a bounded
amount of time. At least exit_aio depends on IO which might get blocked
due to lack of memory and who knows what else is lurking there.
This patch takes a different approach. We remember tsk->mm into the
signal_struct and bind it to the signal struct life time for all oom
victims. __oom_reap_task_mm as well as oom_scan_process_thread do not
have to rely on find_lock_task_mm anymore and they will have a reliable
reference to the mm struct. As a result all the oom specific
communication inside the OOM killer can be done via tsk->signal->oom_mm.
Increasing the signal_struct for something as unlikely as the oom killer
is far from ideal but this approach will make the code much more
reasonable and long term we even might want to move task->mm into the
signal_struct anyway. In the next step we might want to make the oom
killer exclusion and access to memory reserves completely independent
which would be also nice.

"mm, oom_reaper: do not attempt to reap a task twice" tried to give the
OOM reaper one more chance to retry using MMF_OOM_NOT_REAPABLE flag.
But the usefulness of the flag is rather limited and actually never
shown in practice. If the flag is set, it means that the holder of
mm->mmap_sem cannot call up_write() due to presumably being blocked at
unkillable wait waiting for other thread's memory allocation. But since
one of threads sharing that mm will queue that mm immediately via
task_will_free_mem() shortcut (otherwise, oom_badness() will select the
same mm again due to oom_score_adj value unchanged), retrying
MMF_OOM_NOT_REAPABLE mm is unlikely helpful.
Let's always set MMF_OOM_REAPED.

Patch series "fortify oom killer even more", v2.
This patch (of 9):
__oom_reap_task() can be simplified a bit if it receives a valid mm from
oom_reap_task() which also uses that mm when __oom_reap_task() failed.
We can drop one find_lock_task_mm() call and also make the
__oom_reap_task() code flow easier to follow. Moreover, this will make
later patch in the series easier to review. Pinning mm's mm_count for
longer time is not really harmful because this will not pin much memory.
This patch doesn't introduce any functional change.

There is a memory waste problem if we define field on struct page_ext by

fields even if it is disabled at runtime. Now, extra memory request at
runtime is possible so page_owner don't need to define it's own fields

This patch removes hard-coded define and uses extra memory for storing

Until now, if some page_ext users want to use it's own field on
page_ext, it should be defined in struct page_ext by hard-coding. It
has a problem that wastes memory in following situation.
struct page_ext {
#ifdef CONFIG_A
int a;
#endif
#ifdef CONFIG_B
int b;
#endif
};
Assume that kernel is built with both CONFIG_A and CONFIG_B. Even if we
enable feature A and doesn't enable feature B at runtime, each entry of
struct page_ext takes two int rather than one int. It's undesirable
result so this patch tries to fix it.
To solve above problem, this patch implements to support extra space
allocation at runtime. When need() callback returns true, it's extra
memory requirement is summed to entry size of page_ext. Also, offset
for each user's extra memory space is returned. With this offset, user
can use this extra space and there is no need to define needed field on
page_ext by hard-coding.
This patch only implements an infrastructure. Following patch will use
it for page_owner which is only user having it's own fields on page_ext.

What debug_pagealloc does is just mapping/unmapping page table.
Basically, it doesn't need additional memory space to memorize
something. But, with guard page feature, it requires additional memory
to distinguish if the page is for guard or not. Guard page is only used
when debug_guardpage_minorder is non-zero so this patch removes
additional memory allocation (page_ext) if debug_guardpage_minorder is
zero.
It saves memory if we just use debug_pagealloc and not guard page.

throttle_vm_writeout() was introduced back in 2005 to fix OOMs caused by
excessive pageout activity during the reclaim. Too many pages could be
put under writeback therefore LRUs would be full of unreclaimable pages
until the IO completes and in turn the OOM killer could be invoked.
There have been some important changes introduced since then in the
reclaim path though. Writers are throttled by balance_dirty_pages when
initiating the buffered IO and later during the memory pressure, the
direct reclaim is throttled by wait_iff_congested if the node is
considered congested by dirty pages on LRUs and the underlying bdi is
congested by the queued IO. The kswapd is throttled as well if it
encounters pages marked for immediate reclaim or under writeback which
signals that that there are too many pages under writeback already.
Finally should_reclaim_retry does congestion_wait if the reclaim cannot
make any progress and there are too many dirty/writeback pages.
Another important aspect is that we do not issue any IO from the direct
reclaim context anymore. In a heavy parallel load this could queue a
lot of IO which would be very scattered and thus unefficient which would
just make the problem worse.
This three mechanisms should throttle and keep the amount of IO in a
steady state even under heavy IO and memory pressure so yet another
throttling point doesn't really seem helpful. Quite contrary, Mikulas
Patocka has reported that swap backed by dm-crypt doesn't work properly
because the swapout IO cannot make sufficient progress as the writeout
path depends on dm_crypt worker which has to allocate memory to perform
the encryption. In order to guarantee a forward progress it relies on
the mempool allocator. mempool_alloc(), however, prefers to use the
underlying (usually page) allocator before it grabs objects from the
pool. Such an allocation can dive into the memory reclaim and
consequently to throttle_vm_writeout. If there are too many dirty or
pages under writeback it will get throttled even though it is in fact a
flusher to clear pending pages.

Let's just drop throttle_vm_writeout altogether. It is not very much
helpful anymore.
I have tried to test a potential writeback IO runaway similar to the one
described in the original patch which has introduced that [1]. Small
virtual machine (512MB RAM, 4 CPUs, 2G of swap space and disk image on a
rather slow NFS in a sync mode on the host) with 8 parallel writers each
writing 1G worth of data. As soon as the pagecache fills up and the
direct reclaim hits then I start anon memory consumer in a loop
(allocating 300M and exiting after populating it) in the background to
make the memory pressure even stronger as well as to disrupt the steady
state for the IO. The direct reclaim is throttled because of the
congestion as well as kswapd hitting congestion_wait due to nr_immediate
but throttle_vm_writeout doesn't ever trigger the sleep throughout the
test. Dirty+writeback are close to nr_dirty_threshold with some
fluctuations caused by the anon consumer.

if pfn is aligned to MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES. That means it causes

Also we missed freeing the last block in deferred_init_memmap(), it

The compaction_ready() is used during direct reclaim for costly order
allocations to skip reclaim for zones where compaction should be
attempted instead. It's combining the standard compaction_suitable()
check with its own watermark check based on high watermark with extra
gap, and the result is confusing at best.
This patch attempts to better structure and document the checks
involved. First, compaction_suitable() can determine that the
allocation should either succeed already, or that compaction doesn't
have enough free pages to proceed. The third possibility is that
compaction has enough free pages, but we still decide to reclaim first -
unless we are already above the high watermark with gap. This does not
mean that the reclaim will actually reach this watermark during single
attempt, this is rather an over-reclaim protection. So document the
code as such. The check for compaction_deferred() is removed
completely, as it in fact had no proper role here.
The result after this patch is mainly a less confusing code. We also
skip some over-reclaim in cases where the allocation should already
succed.

The __compaction_suitable() function checks the low watermark plus a
compact_gap() gap to decide if there's enough free memory to perform
compaction. Then __isolate_free_page uses low watermark check to decide
if particular free page can be isolated. In the latter case, using low
watermark is needlessly pessimistic, as the free page isolations are
only temporary. For __compaction_suitable() the higher watermark makes
sense for high-order allocations where more freepages increase the
chance of success, and we can typically fail with some order-0 fallback
when the system is struggling to reach that watermark. But for
low-order allocation, forming the page should not be that hard. So
using low watermark here might just prevent compaction from even trying,
and eventually lead to OOM killer even if we are above min watermarks.
So after this patch, we use min watermark for non-costly orders in
__compaction_suitable(), and for all orders in __isolate_free_page().

The __compaction_suitable() function checks the low watermark plus a
compact_gap() gap to decide if there's enough free memory to perform
compaction. This check uses direct compactor's alloc_flags, but that's
wrong, since these flags are not applicable for freepage isolation.
For example, alloc_flags may indicate access to memory reserves, making
compaction proceed, and then fail watermark check during the isolation.
A similar problem exists for ALLOC_CMA, which may be part of
alloc_flags, but not during freepage isolation. In this case however it
makes sense to use ALLOC_CMA both in __compaction_suitable() and
__isolate_free_page(), since there's actually nothing preventing the
freepage scanner to isolate from CMA pageblocks, with the assumption
that a page that could be migrated once by compaction can be migrated
also later by CMA allocation. Thus we should count pages in CMA
pageblocks when considering compaction suitability and when isolating
freepages.
To sum up, this patch should remove some false positives from
__compaction_suitable(), and allow compaction to proceed when free pages
required for compaction reside in the CMA pageblocks.

The __compact_finished() function uses low watermark in a check that has
to pass if the direct compaction is to finish and allocation should
succeed. This is too pessimistic, as the allocation will typically use
min watermark. It may happen that during compaction, we drop below the
low watermark (due to parallel activity), but still form the target
high-order page. By checking against low watermark, we might needlessly
continue compaction.
Similarly, __compaction_suitable() uses low watermark in a check whether
allocation can succeed without compaction. Again, this is unnecessarily
pessimistic.
After this patch, these check will use direct compactor's alloc_flags to
determine the watermark, which is effectively the min watermark.

During reclaim/compaction loop, it's desirable to get a final answer
from unsuccessful compaction so we can either fail the allocation or
invoke the OOM killer. However, heuristics such as deferred compaction
or pageblock skip bits can cause compaction to skip parts or whole zones
and lead to premature OOM's, failures or excessive reclaim/compaction
retries.
To remedy this, we introduce a new direct compaction priority called
COMPACT_PRIO_SYNC_FULL, which instructs direct compaction to:
- ignore deferred compaction status for a zone
- ignore pageblock skip hints
- ignore cached scanner positions and scan the whole zone
The new priority should get eventually picked up by
should_compact_retry() and this should improve success rates for costly
allocations using __GFP_REPEAT, such as hugetlbfs allocations, and

Joonsoo has reminded me that in a later patch changing watermark checks
throughout compaction I forgot to update checks in
try_to_compact_pages() and compactd_do_work(). Closer inspection
however shows that they are redundant now in the success case, because
compact_zone() now reliably reports this with COMPACT_SUCCESS. So
effectively the checks just repeat (a subset) of checks that have just
passed. So instead of checking watermarks again, just test the return
value.
Note it's also possible that compaction would declare failure e.g.
because its find_suitable_fallback() is more strict than simple
watermark check, and then the watermark check we are removing would then
still succeed. After this patch this is not possible and it's arguably
better, because for long-term fragmentation avoidance we should rather
try a different zone than allocate with the unsuitable fallback. If
compaction of all zones fail and the allocation is important enough, it
will retry and succeed anyway.
Also remove the stray "bool success" variable from kcompactd_do_work().

COMPACT_PARTIAL has historically meant that compaction returned after
doing some work without fully compacting a zone. It however didn't
distinguish if compaction terminated because it succeeded in creating
the requested high-order page. This has changed recently and now we
only return COMPACT_PARTIAL when compaction thinks it succeeded, or the
high-order watermark check in compaction_suitable() passes and no
compaction needs to be done.
So at this point we can make the return value clearer by renaming it to
COMPACT_SUCCESS. The next patch will remove some redundant tests for
success where compaction just returned COMPACT_SUCCESS.

Patch series "make direct compaction more deterministic")
This is mostly a followup to Michal's oom detection rework, which
highlighted the need for direct compaction to provide better feedback in
reclaim/compaction loop, so that it can reliably recognize when
compaction cannot make further progress, and allocation should invoke
OOM killer or fail. We've discussed this at LSF/MM [1] where I proposed
expanding the async/sync migration mode used in compaction to more
general "priorities". This patchset adds one new priority that just
overrides all the heuristics and makes compaction fully scan all zones.
I don't currently think that we need more fine-grained priorities, but
we'll see. Other than that there's some smaller fixes and cleanups,
mainly related to the THP-specific hacks.
I've tested this with stress-highalloc in GFP_KERNEL order-4 and
THP-like order-9 scenarios. There's some improvement for compaction
stats for the order-4, which is likely due to the better watermarks
handling. In the previous version I reported mostly noise wrt
compaction stats, and decreased direct reclaim - now the reclaim is
without difference. I believe this is due to the less aggressive
compaction priority increase in patch 6.

This patch (of 11):
A recent patch has added whole_zone flag that compaction sets when
scanning starts from the zone boundary, in order to report that zone has
been fully scanned in one attempt. For allocations that want to try
really hard or cannot fail, we will want to introduce a mode where
scanning whole zone is guaranteed regardless of the cached positions.
This patch reuses the whole_zone flag in a way that if it's already
passed true to compaction, the cached scanner positions are ignored.
Employing this flag during reclaim/compaction loop will be done in the
next patch. This patch however converts compaction invoked from
userspace via procfs to use this flag. Before this patch, the cached
positions were first reset to zone boundaries and then read back from
struct zone, so there was a window where a parallel compaction could
replace the reset values, making the manual compaction less effective.
Using the flag instead of performing reset is more robust.

When selecting an oom victim, we use the same heuristic for both memory
cgroup and global oom. The only difference is the scope of tasks to
select the victim from. So we could just export an iterator over all
memcg tasks and keep all oom related logic in oom_kill.c, but instead we
duplicate pieces of it in memcontrol.c reusing some initially private
functions of oom_kill.c in order to not duplicate all of it. That looks
ugly and error prone, because any modification of select_bad_process
should also be propagated to mem_cgroup_out_of_memory.
Let's rework this as follows: keep all oom heuristic related code private
to oom_kill.c and make oom_kill.c use exported memcg functions when it's
really necessary (like in case of iterating over memcg tasks).

Speaking of reflink, I'm currently planning to send you another pull

reverse mapping code in a separate request because of how large it
was. The reflink code merge is even bigger than reverse mapping, so
I'll be doing the same thing again....

Commit 22f2ac51b6 ("mm: workingset: fix crash in shadow node shrinker
caused by replace_page_cache_page()") switched replace_page_cache() from
raw radix tree operations to page_cache_tree_insert() but didn't take
into account that the latter function, unlike the raw radix tree op,
handles mapping->nrpages. As a result, that counter is bumped for each
page replacement rather than balanced out even.
The mapping->nrpages counter is used to skip needless radix tree walks
when invalidating, truncating, syncing inodes without pages, as well as
statistics for userspace. Since the error is positive, we'll do more
page cache tree walks than necessary; we won't miss a necessary one.
And we'll report more buffer pages to userspace than there are. The
error is limited to fuse inodes.

This is a long-standing bug in the way shadow entries are accounted in
the radix tree nodes. The shrinker needs to know when radix tree nodes
contain only shadow entries, no pages, so node->count is split in half
to count shadows in the upper bits and pages in the lower bits.
Unfortunately, the radix tree implementation doesn't know of this and
assumes all entries are in node->count. When there is a shadow entry
directly in root->rnode and the tree is later extended, the radix tree
implementation will copy that entry into the new node and and bump its
node->count, i.e. increases the page count bits. Once the shadow gets
removed and we subtract from the upper counter, node->count underflows
and triggers the warning. Afterwards, without node->count reaching 0
again, the radix tree node is leaked.
Limit shadow entries to when we have actual radix tree nodes and can
count them properly. That means we lose the ability to detect refaults
from files that had only the first page faulted in at eviction time.

in order to ensure the percpu group areas within a chunk aren't
distributed too sparsely, pcpu_embed_first_chunk() goes to error handling
path when a chunk spans over 3/4 VMALLOC area, however, during the error
handling, it forget to free the memory allocated for all percpu groups by
going to label @out_free other than @out_free_areas.
it will cause memory leakage issue if the rare scene really happens, in
order to fix the issue, we check chunk spanned area immediately after
completing memory allocation for all percpu groups, we go to label
@out_free_areas to free the memory then return if the checking is failed.
in order to verify the approach, we dump all memory allocated then
enforce the jump then dump all memory freed, the result is okay after
checking whether we free all memory we allocate in this function.
BTW, The approach is chosen after thinking over the below scenes
- we don't go to label @out_free directly to fix this issue since we
maybe free several allocated memory blocks twice
- the aim of jumping after pcpu_setup_first_chunk() is bypassing free
usable memory other than handling error, moreover, the function does
not return error code in any case, it either panics due to BUG_ON()
or return 0.

pcpu_embed_first_chunk() calculates the range a percpu chunk spans into
@max_distance and uses it to ensure that a chunk is not too big compared
to the total vmalloc area. However, during calculation, it used incorrect
top address by adding a unit size to the highest group's base address.
This can make the calculated max_distance slightly smaller than the actual
distance although given the scale of values involved the error is very
unlikely to have an actual impact.
Fix this issue by adding the group's size instead of a unit size.
BTW, The type of variable max_distance is changed from size_t to unsigned
long too based on below consideration:
- type unsigned long usually have same width with IP core registers and
can be applied at here very well
- make @max_distance type consistent with the operand calculated against
it such as @ai->groups[i].base_offset and macro VMALLOC_TOTAL
- type unsigned long is more universal then size_t, size_t is type defined
to unsigned int or unsigned long among various ARCHs usually

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"Traditionally, cpufreq is the area with the greatest number of
changes, but there are fewer of them than last time. There also is
some activity in the generic power domains and the devfreq frameworks,
a couple of system suspend and hibernation fixes and some assorted
changes in other places.
One new feature is the cpufreq change to allow the scheduler to pass
hints to the governors' utilization update callbacks and some code
rework based on that. Another one is the support for domain removal in
the generic power domains framework. Also it is now possible to use
hibernation with PAGE_POISONING_ZERO enabled and devfreq supports the
RockChip DFI controller and the rk3399 DMC.
The rest of the changes is mostly fixes and cleanups in a number of
places.

governors via their utilization update callbacks and use it to
introduce "IOwait boosting" into the schedutil governor and
intel_pstate that will make them boost performance if the enqueued

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.

The oom victim cannot terminate because it needs to take mmap_sem for
write while the lock is held by ksmd for read which loops in the page
allocator
ksm_do_scan
scan_get_next_rmap_item
down_read
get_next_rmap_item
alloc_rmap_item #ksmd will loop permanently.
There is no way forward because the oom victim cannot release any memory
in 4.1 based kernel. Since 4.6 we have the oom reaper which would solve
this problem because it would release the memory asynchronously.
Nevertheless we can relax alloc_rmap_item requirements and use
__GFP_NORETRY because the allocation failure is acceptable as ksm_do_scan
would just retry later after the lock got dropped.
Such a patch would be also easy to backport to older stable kernels which
do not have oom_reaper.
While we are at it add GFP_NOWARN so the admin doesn't have to be alarmed
by the allocation failure.

CURRENT_TIME macro is not appropriate for filesystems as it
doesn't use the right granularity for filesystem timestamps.
Use current_time() instead.
CURRENT_TIME is also not y2038 safe.
This is also in preparation for the patch that transitions
vfs timestamps to use 64 bit time and hence make them
y2038 safe. As part of the effort current_time() will be
extended to do range checks. Hence, it is necessary for all
file system timestamps to use current_time(). Also,
current_time() will be transitioned along with vfs to be
y2038 safe.
Note that whenever a single call to current_time() is used
to change timestamps in different inodes, it is because they
share the same time granularity.

The NUMA balancing logic uses an arch-specific PROT_NONE page table flag
defined by pte_protnone() or pmd_protnone() to mark PTEs or huge page
PMDs respectively as requiring balancing upon a subsequent page fault.
User-defined PROT_NONE memory regions which also have this flag set will
not normally invoke the NUMA balancing code as do_page_fault() will send
a segfault to the process before handle_mm_fault() is even called.
However if access_remote_vm() is invoked to access a PROT_NONE region of
memory, handle_mm_fault() is called via faultin_page() and
__get_user_pages() without any access checks being performed, meaning
the NUMA balancing logic is incorrectly invoked on a non-NUMA memory
region.
A simple means of triggering this problem is to access PROT_NONE mmap'd
memory using /proc/self/mem which reliably results in the NUMA handling
functions being invoked when CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING is set.
This issue was reported in bugzilla (issue 99101) which includes some
simple repro code.
There are BUG_ON() checks in do_numa_page() and do_huge_pmd_numa_page()
added at commit c0e7cad to avoid accidentally provoking strange
behaviour by attempting to apply NUMA balancing to pages that are in
fact PROT_NONE. The BUG_ON()'s are consistently triggered by the repro.
This patch moves the PROT_NONE check into mm/memory.c rather than
invoking BUG_ON() as faulting in these pages via faultin_page() is a
valid reason for reaching the NUMA check with the PROT_NONE page table
flag set and is therefore not always a bug.

Merge VM fixes from High Dickins:
"I get the impression that Andrew is away or busy at the moment, so I'm
going to send you three independent uncontroversial little mm fixes
directly - though none is strictly a 4.8 regression fix.
- shmem: fix tmpfs to handle the huge= option properly from Toshi
Kani is a one-liner to fix a major embarrassment in 4.8's hugepages
on tmpfs feature: although Hillf pointed it out in June, somehow
both Kirill and I repeatedly dropped the ball on this one. You
might wonder if the feature got tested at all with that bug in:
yes, it did, but for wider testing coverage, Kirill and I had each
relied too much on an override which bypasses that condition.
- huge tmpfs: fix Committed_AS leak just a run-of-the-mill accounting
fix in the same feature.
- mm: delete unnecessary and unsafe init_tlb_ubc() is an unrelated
fix to 4.3's TLB flush batching in reclaim: the bug would be rare,
and none of us will be shamed if this one misses 4.8; but it got
such a quick ack from Mel today that I'm inclined to offer it along
with the first two"
* emailed patches from Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com>:
mm: delete unnecessary and unsafe init_tlb_ubc()
huge tmpfs: fix Committed_AS leak
shmem: fix tmpfs to handle the huge= option properly
init_tlb_ubc() looked unnecessary to me: tlb_ubc is statically
initialized with zeroes in the init_task, and copied from parent to
child while it is quiescent in arch_dup_task_struct(); so I went to
delete it.
But inserted temporary debug WARN_ONs in place of init_tlb_ubc() to
check that it was always empty at that point, and found them firing:
because memcg reclaim can recurse into global reclaim (when allocating
biosets for swapout in my case), and arrive back at the init_tlb_ubc()
in shrink_node_memcg().
Resetting tlb_ubc.flush_required at that point is wrong: if the upper
level needs a deferred TLB flush, but the lower level turns out not to,
we miss a TLB flush. But fortunately, that's the only part of the
protocol that does not nest: with the initialization removed, cpumask
collects bits from upper and lower levels, and flushes TLB when needed.

shmem_get_unmapped_area() checks SHMEM_SB(sb)->huge incorrectly, which
leads to a reversed effect of "huge=" mount option.
Fix the check in shmem_get_unmapped_area().
Note, the default value of SHMEM_SB(sb)->huge remains as
SHMEM_HUGE_NEVER. User will need to specify "huge=" option to enable

During cgroup2 rollout into production, we started encountering css
refcount underflows and css access crashes in the memory controller.
Splitting the heavily shared css reference counter into logical users
narrowed the imbalance down to the cgroup2 socket memory accounting.
The problem turns out to be the per-cpu charge cache. Cgroup1 had a
separate socket counter, but the new cgroup2 socket accounting goes
through the common charge path that uses a shared per-cpu cache for all
memory that is being tracked. Those caches are safe against scheduling
preemption, but not against interrupts - such as the newly added packet
receive path. When cache draining is interrupted by network RX taking
pages out of the cache, the resuming drain operation will put references
of in-use pages, thus causing the imbalance.
Disable IRQs during all per-cpu charge cache operations.

Commit 62c230bc17 ("mm: add support for a filesystem to activate
swap files and use direct_IO for writing swap pages") replaced the
swap_aops dirty hook from __set_page_dirty_no_writeback() with
swap_set_page_dirty().
For normal cases without these special SWP flags code path falls back to
__set_page_dirty_no_writeback() so the behaviour is expected to be the
same as before.
But swap_set_page_dirty() makes use of the page_swap_info() helper to
get the swap_info_struct to check for the flags like SWP_FILE,
SWP_BLKDEV etc as desired for those features. This helper has
BUG_ON(!PageSwapCache(page)) which is racy and safe only for the
set_page_dirty_lock() path.
For the set_page_dirty() path which is often needed for cases to be
called from irq context, kswapd() can toggle the flag behind the back
while the call is getting executed when system is low on memory and
heavy swapping is ongoing.
This ends up with undesired kernel panic.
This patch just moves the check outside the helper to its users
appropriately to fix kernel panic for the described path. Couple of
users of helpers already take care of SwapCache condition so I skipped
them.

Commit 394e31d2ce ("mem-hotplug: alloc new page from a nearest

hotplug.
In new_node_page(), the nid is cleared before calling
__alloc_pages_nodemask(). But if it is the only node of the system, and
the first round allocation fails, it will not be able to get memory from
an empty nodemask, and will trigger oom.
The patch checks whether it is the last node on the system, and if it
is, then don't clear the nid in the nodemask.

Commit:
4d94246699 ("mm: convert p[te|md]_mknonnuma and remaining page table manipulations")
changed NUMA balancing from _PAGE_NUMA to using PROT_NONE, and was quickly
found to introduce a regression with NUMA grouping.
It was followed up by these commits:
53da3bc2ba ("mm: fix up numa read-only thread grouping logic")
bea66fbd11 ("mm: numa: group related processes based on VMA flags instead of page table flags")
b191f9b106 ("mm: numa: preserve PTE write permissions across a NUMA hinting fault")
The first of those two commits try alternate approaches to NUMA
grouping, which apparently do not work as well as looking at the PTE
write permissions.
The latter patch preserves the PTE write permissions across a NUMA
protection fault. However, it forgets to revert the condition for
whether or not to group tasks together back to what it was before
v3.19, even though the information is now preserved in the page tables
once again.
This patch brings the NUMA grouping heuristic back to what it was
before commit 4d94246699, which the changelogs of subsequent
commits suggest worked best.
We have all the information again. We should probably use it.

In the hibernate use case, free pages will appear in the system without

This patch will make sure free pages are cleared on resume when
PAGE_POISONING_ZERO is enabled. We free the pages just after resume
because we can't do it later: going through any device resume code might
allocate some memory and invalidate the free pages bitmap.

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
"nvdimm fixes for v4.8, two of them are tagged for -stable:
- Fix devm_memremap_pages() to use track_pfn_insert(). Otherwise,
DAX pmd mappings end up with an uncached pgprot, and unusable
performance for the device-dax interface. The device-dax interface
appeared in 4.7 so this is tagged for -stable.
- Fix a couple VM_BUG_ON() checks in the show_smaps() path to
understand DAX pmd entries. This fix is tagged for -stable.
- Fix a mis-merge of the nfit machine-check handler to flip the
polarity of an if() to match the final version of the patch that
Vishal sent for 4.8-rc1. Without this the nfit machine check
handler never detects / inserts new 'badblocks' entries which
applications use to identify lost portions of files.
- For test purposes, fix the nvdimm_clear_poison() path to operate on
legacy / simulated nvdimm memory ranges. Without this fix a test
can set badblocks, but never clear them on these ranges.
- Fix the range checking done by dax_dev_pmd_fault(). This is not
tagged for -stable since this problem is mitigated by specifying
aligned resources at device-dax setup time.
These patches have appeared in a next release over the past week. The
recent rebase you can see in the timestamps was to drop an invalid fix
as identified by the updated device-dax unit tests [1]. The -mm

This patch adds two new system calls:
int pkey_alloc(unsigned long flags, unsigned long init_access_rights)
int pkey_free(int pkey);
These implement an "allocator" for the protection keys
themselves, which can be thought of as analogous to the allocator
that the kernel has for file descriptors. The kernel tracks
which numbers are in use, and only allows operations on keys that
are valid. A key which was not obtained by pkey_alloc() may not,
for instance, be passed to pkey_mprotect().
These system calls are also very important given the kernel's use
of pkeys to implement execute-only support. These help ensure
that userspace can never assume that it has control of a key
unless it first asks the kernel. The kernel does not promise to
preserve PKRU (right register) contents except for allocated
pkeys.
The 'init_access_rights' argument to pkey_alloc() specifies the
rights that will be established for the returned pkey. For
instance:
pkey = pkey_alloc(flags, PKEY_DENY_WRITE);
will allocate 'pkey', but also sets the bits in PKRU[1] such that
writing to 'pkey' is already denied.
The kernel does not prevent pkey_free() from successfully freeing
in-use pkeys (those still assigned to a memory range by
pkey_mprotect()). It would be expensive to implement the checks
for this, so we instead say, "Just don't do it" since sane
software will never do it anyway.
Any piece of userspace calling pkey_alloc() needs to be prepared
for it to fail. Why? pkey_alloc() returns the same error code
(ENOSPC) when there are no pkeys and when pkeys are unsupported.
They can be unsupported for a whole host of reasons, so apps must
be prepared for this. Also, libraries or LD_PRELOADs might steal
keys before an application gets access to them.
This allocation mechanism could be implemented in userspace.
Even if we did it in userspace, we would still need additional
user/kernel interfaces to tell userspace which keys are being
used by the kernel internally (such as for execute-only
mappings). Having the kernel provide this facility completely
removes the need for these additional interfaces, or having an
implementation of this in userspace at all.
Note that we have to make changes to all of the architectures
that do not use mman-common.h because we use the new
PKEY_DENY_ACCESS/WRITE macros in arch-independent code.
1. PKRU is the Protection Key Rights User register. It is a
usermode-accessible register that controls whether writes
and/or access to each individual pkey is allowed or denied.

Today, mprotect() takes 4 bits of data: PROT_READ/WRITE/EXEC/NONE.
Three of those bits: READ/WRITE/EXEC get translated directly in to
vma->vm_flags by calc_vm_prot_bits(). If a bit is unset in
mprotect()'s 'prot' argument then it must be cleared in vma->vm_flags
during the mprotect() call.
We do this clearing today by first calculating the VMA flags we
want set, then clearing the ones we do not want to inherit from
the original VMA:
vm_flags = calc_vm_prot_bits(prot, key);
...
newflags = vm_flags;
newflags |= (vma->vm_flags & ~(VM_READ | VM_WRITE | VM_EXEC));
However, we *also* want to mask off the original VMA's vm_flags in
which we store the protection key.
To do that, this patch adds a new macro:
ARCH_VM_PKEY_FLAGS
which allows the architecture to specify additional bits that it would
like cleared. We use that to ensure that the VM_PKEY_BIT* bits get
cleared.

pkey_mprotect() is just like mprotect, except it also takes a
protection key as an argument. On systems that do not support
protection keys, it still works, but requires that key=0.
Otherwise it does exactly what mprotect does.
I expect it to get used like this, if you want to guarantee that
any mapping you create can *never* be accessed without the right
protection keys set up.
int real_prot = PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE;
pkey = pkey_alloc(0, PKEY_DENY_ACCESS);
ptr = mmap(NULL, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_NONE, MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0);
ret = pkey_mprotect(ptr, PAGE_SIZE, real_prot, pkey);
This way, there is *no* window where the mapping is accessible
since it was always either PROT_NONE or had a protection key set
that denied all access.
We settled on 'unsigned long' for the type of the key here. We
only need 4 bits on x86 today, but I figured that other
architectures might need some more space.
Semantically, we have a bit of a problem if we combine this
syscall with our previously-introduced execute-only support:
What do we do when we mix execute-only pkey use with
pkey_mprotect() use? For instance:
pkey_mprotect(ptr, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_WRITE, 6); // set pkey=6
mprotect(ptr, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_EXEC); // set pkey=X_ONLY_PKEY?
mprotect(ptr, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_WRITE); // is pkey=6 again?
To solve that, we make the plain-mprotect()-initiated execute-only
support only apply to VMAs that have the default protection key (0)
set on them.
Proposed semantics:
1. protection key 0 is special and represents the default,
"unassigned" protection key. It is always allocated.
2. mprotect() never affects a mapping's pkey_mprotect()-assigned
protection key. A protection key of 0 (even if set explicitly)
represents an unassigned protection key.
2a. mprotect(PROT_EXEC) on a mapping with an assigned protection
key may or may not result in a mapping with execute-only
properties. pkey_mprotect() plus pkey_set() on all threads
should be used to _guarantee_ execute-only semantics if this
is not a strong enough semantic.
3. mprotect(PROT_EXEC) may result in an "execute-only" mapping. The
kernel will internally attempt to allocate and dedicate a
protection key for the purpose of execute-only mappings. This
may not be possible in cases where there are no free protection
keys available. It can also happen, of course, in situations
where there is no hardware support for protection keys.

A custom allocator without __GFP_COMP that copies to userspace has been
found in vmw_execbuf_process[1], so this disables the page-span checker
by placing it behind a CONFIG for future work where such things can be
tracked down later.

KASAN allocates memory from the page allocator as part of
kmem_cache_free(), and that can reference current->mempolicy through any
number of allocation functions. It needs to be NULL'd out before the
final reference is dropped to prevent a use-after-free bug:
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in alloc_pages_current+0x363/0x370 at addr ffff88010b48102c

Firmware Assisted Dump (FA_DUMP) on ppc64 reserves substantial amounts
of memory when booting a secondary kernel. Srikar Dronamraju reported
that multiple nodes may have no memory managed by the buddy allocator
but still return true for populated_zone().
Commit 1d82de618d ("mm, vmscan: make kswapd reclaim in terms of
nodes") was reported to cause kswapd to spin at 100% CPU usage when
fadump was enabled. The old code happened to deal with the situation of
a populated node with zero free pages by co-incidence but the current
code tries to reclaim populated zones without realising that is
impossible.
We cannot just convert populated_zone() as many existing users really
need to check for present_pages. This patch introduces a managed_zone()
helper and uses it in the few cases where it is critical that the check
is made for managed pages -- zonelist construction and page reclaim.

There have been several reports about pre-mature OOM killer invocation
in 4.7 kernel when order-2 allocation request (for the kernel stack)
invoked OOM killer even during basic workloads (light IO or even kernel
compile on some filesystems). In all reported cases the memory is
fragmented and there are no order-2+ pages available. There is usually
a large amount of slab memory (usually dentries/inodes) and further
debugging has shown that there are way too many unmovable blocks which
are skipped during the compaction. Multiple reporters have confirmed
that the current linux-next which includes [1] and [2] helped and OOMs
are not reproducible anymore.
A simpler fix for the late rc and stable is to simply ignore the
compaction feedback and retry as long as there is a reclaim progress and
we are not getting OOM for order-0 pages. We already do that for
CONFING_COMPACTION=n so let's reuse the same code when compaction is
enabled as well.

For DAX inodes we need to be careful to never have page cache pages in
the mapping->page_tree. This radix tree should be composed only of DAX
exceptional entries and zero pages.
ltp's readahead02 test was triggering a warning because we were trying
to insert a DAX exceptional entry but found that a page cache page had
already been inserted into the tree. This page was being inserted into
the radix tree in response to a readahead(2) call.
Readahead doesn't make sense for DAX inodes, but we don't want it to
report a failure either. Instead, we just return success and don't do
any work.

A bugfix in v4.8-rc2 introduced a harmless warning when
CONFIG_MEMCG_SWAP is disabled but CONFIG_MEMCG is enabled:
mm/memcontrol.c:4085:27: error: 'mem_cgroup_id_get_online' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]
static struct mem_cgroup *mem_cgroup_id_get_online(struct mem_cgroup *memcg)
This moves the function inside of the #ifdef block that hides the
calling function, to avoid the warning.

The current wording of the COMPACTION Kconfig help text doesn't
emphasise that disabling COMPACTION might cripple the page allocator
which relies on the compaction quite heavily for high order requests and
an unexpected OOM can happen with the lack of compaction. Make sure we
are vocal about that.

While adding proper userfaultfd_wp support with bits in pagetable and
swap entry to avoid false positives WP userfaults through swap/fork/
KSM/etc, I've been adding a framework that mostly mirrors soft dirty.
So I noticed in one place I had to add uffd_wp support to the pagetables
that wasn't covered by soft_dirty and I think it should have.
Example: in the THP migration code migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page()
pmd_mkdirty is called unconditionally after mk_huge_pmd.
entry = mk_huge_pmd(new_page, vma->vm_page_prot);
entry = maybe_pmd_mkwrite(pmd_mkdirty(entry), vma);
That sets soft dirty too (it's a false positive for soft dirty, the soft
dirty bit could be more finegrained and transfer the bit like uffd_wp
will do.. pmd/pte_uffd_wp() enforces the invariant that when it's set
pmd/pte_write is not set).
However in the THP split there's no unconditional pmd_mkdirty after
mk_huge_pmd and pte_swp_mksoft_dirty isn't called after the migration
entry is created. The code sets the dirty bit in the struct page
instead of setting it in the pagetable (which is fully equivalent as far
as the real dirty bit is concerned, as the whole point of pagetable bits
is to be eventually flushed out of to the page, but that is not
equivalent for the soft-dirty bit that gets lost in translation).
This was found by code review only and totally untested as I'm working
to actually replace soft dirty and I don't have time to test potential
soft dirty bugfixes as well :).
Transfer the soft_dirty from pmd to pte during THP splits.
This fix avoids losing the soft_dirty bit and avoids userland memory
corruption in the checkpoint.
