7ca02d0ae5 hugetlbfs: accept subpool min_size mount option and setup accordingly
Make 'min_size=<value>' be an option when mounting a hugetlbfs.  This
option takes the same value as the 'size' option.  min_size can be
specified without specifying size.  If both are specified, min_size must
be less that or equal to size else the mount will fail.  If min_size is
specified, then at mount time an attempt is made to reserve min_size
pages.  If the reservation fails, the mount fails.  At umount time, the
reserved pages are released.

1c5ecae3a9 hugetlbfs: add minimum size accounting to subpools
The same routines that perform subpool maximum size accounting
hugepage_subpool_get/put_pages() are modified to also perform minimum size
accounting.  When a delta value is passed to these routines, calculate how
global reservations must be adjusted to maintain the subpool minimum size.
 The routines now return this global reserve count adjustment.  This
global reserve count adjustment is then passed to the global accounting
routine hugetlb_acct_memory().

c6a918200c hugetlbfs: add minimum size tracking fields to subpool structure
hugetlbfs allocates huge pages from the global pool as needed.  Even if
the global pool contains a sufficient number pages for the filesystem size
at mount time, those global pages could be grabbed for some other use.  As
a result, filesystem huge page allocations may fail due to lack of pages.

Applications such as a database want to use huge pages for performance
reasons.  hugetlbfs filesystem semantics with ownership and modes work
well to manage access to a pool of huge pages.  However, the application
would like some reasonable assurance that allocations will not fail due to
a lack of huge pages.  At application startup time, the application would
like to configure itself to use a specific number of huge pages.  Before
starting, the application can check to make sure that enough huge pages
exist in the system global pools.  However, there are no guarantees that
those pages will be available when needed by the application.  What the
application wants is exclusive use of a subset of huge pages.

Add a new hugetlbfs mount option 'min_size=<value>' to indicate that the
specified number of pages will be available for use by the filesystem.  At
mount time, this number of huge pages will be reserved for exclusive use
of the filesystem.  If there is not a sufficient number of free pages, the
mount will fail.  As pages are allocated to and freeed from the
filesystem, the number of reserved pages is adjusted so that the specified
minimum is maintained.

This patch (of 4):

Add a field to the subpool structure to indicate the minimimum number of
huge pages to always be used by this subpool.  This minimum count includes
allocated pages as well as reserved pages.  If the minimum number of pages
for the subpool have not been allocated, pages are reserved up to this
minimum.  An additional field (rsv_hpages) is used to track the number of
pages reserved to meet this minimum size.  The hstate pointer in the
subpool is convenient to have when reserving and unreserving the pages.

195b0c6080 mm/compaction: reset compaction scanner positions
When the compaction is activated via /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory it would
better scan the whole zone.  And some platforms, for instance ARM, have
the start_pfn of a zone at zero.  Therefore the first try to compact via
/proc doesn't work.  It needs to reset the compaction scanner position
first.

3b3636924d mm, memcg: sync allocation and memcg charge gfp flags for THP
memcg currently uses hardcoded GFP_TRANSHUGE gfp flags for all THP
charges.  THP allocations, however, might be using different flags
depending on /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/{,khugepaged/}defrag and
the current allocation context.

The primary difference is that defrag configured to "madvise" value will
clear __GFP_WAIT flag from the core gfp mask to make the allocation
lighter for all mappings which are not backed by VM_HUGEPAGE vmas.  If
memcg charge path ignores this fact we will get light allocation but the a
potential memcg reclaim would kill the whole point of the configuration.

Fix the mismatch by providing the same gfp mask used for the allocation to
the charge functions.  This is quite easy for all paths except for
hugepaged kernel thread with !CONFIG_NUMA which is doing a pre-allocation
long before the allocated page is used in collapse_huge_page via
khugepaged_alloc_page.  To prevent from cluttering the whole code path
from khugepaged_do_scan we simply return the current flags as per
khugepaged_defrag() value which might have changed since the
preallocation.  If somebody changed the value of the knob we would charge
differently but this shouldn't happen often and it is definitely not
critical because it would only lead to a reduced success rate of one-off
THP promotion.

5bbe3547aa mm: allow compaction of unevictable pages
Currently, pages which are marked as unevictable are protected from
compaction, but not from other types of migration.  The POSIX real time
extension explicitly states that mlock() will prevent a major page
fault, but the spirit of this is that mlock() should give a process the
ability to control sources of latency, including minor page faults.
However, the mlock manpage only explicitly says that a locked page will
not be written to swap and this can cause some confusion.  The
compaction code today does not give a developer who wants to avoid swap
but wants to have large contiguous areas available any method to achieve
this state.  This patch introduces a sysctl for controlling compaction
behavior with respect to the unevictable lru.  Users who demand no page
faults after a page is present can set compact_unevictable_allowed to 0
and users who need the large contiguous areas can enable compaction on
locked memory by leaving the default value of 1.

To illustrate this problem I wrote a quick test program that mmaps a
large number of 1MB files filled with random data.  These maps are
created locked and read only.  Then every other mmap is unmapped and I
attempt to allocate huge pages to the static huge page pool.  When the
compact_unevictable_allowed sysctl is 0, I cannot allocate hugepages
after fragmenting memory.  When the value is set to 1, allocations
succeed.

adbe427b92 memcg: zap mem_cgroup_lookup()
mem_cgroup_lookup() is a wrapper around mem_cgroup_from_id(), which
checks that id != 0 before issuing the function call.  Today, there is
no point in this additional check apart from optimization, because there
is no css with id <= 0, so that css_from_id, called by
mem_cgroup_from_id, will return NULL for any id <= 0.

Since mem_cgroup_from_id is only called from mem_cgroup_lookup, let us
zap mem_cgroup_lookup, substituting calls to it with mem_cgroup_from_id
and moving the check if id > 0 to css_from_id.

4a20799d11 mm: move memtest under mm
Memtest is a simple feature which fills the memory with a given set of
patterns and validates memory contents, if bad memory regions is detected
it reserves them via memblock API.  Since memblock API is widely used by
other architectures this feature can be enabled outside of x86 world.

This patch set promotes memtest to live under generic mm umbrella and
enables memtest feature for arm/arm64.

It was reported that this patch set was useful for tracking down an issue
with some errant DMA on an arm64 platform.

This patch (of 6):

There is nothing platform dependent in the core memtest code, so other
platforms might benefit from this feature too.

02057967b5 mm, hugetlb: abort __get_user_pages if current has been oom killed
If __get_user_pages() is faulting a significant number of hugetlb pages,
usually as the result of mmap(MAP_LOCKED), it can potentially allocate a
very large amount of memory.

If the process has been oom killed, this will cause a lot of memory to
potentially deplete memory reserves.

In the same way that commit 4779280d1e ("mm: make get_user_pages()
interruptible") aborted for pending SIGKILLs when faulting non-hugetlb
memory, based on the premise of commit 462e00cc71 ("oom: stop
allocating user memory if TIF_MEMDIE is set"), hugetlb page faults now
terminate when the process has been oom killed.

0f616be120 mm: change __get_vm_area_node() to use fls_long()
ioremap() and its related interfaces are used to create I/O mappings to
memory-mapped I/O devices.  The mapping sizes of the traditional I/O
devices are relatively small.  Non-volatile memory (NVM), however, has
many GB and is going to have TB soon.  It is not very efficient to create
large I/O mappings with 4KB.

This patchset extends the ioremap() interfaces to transparently create I/O
mappings with huge pages whenever possible.  ioremap() continues to use
4KB mappings when a huge page does not fit into a requested range.  There
is no change necessary to the drivers using ioremap().  A requested
physical address must be aligned by a huge page size (1GB or 2MB on x86)
for using huge page mapping, though.  The kernel huge I/O mapping will
improve performance of NVM and other devices with large memory, and reduce
the time to create their mappings as well.

On x86, MTRRs can override PAT memory types with a 4KB granularity.  When
using a huge page, MTRRs can override the memory type of the huge page,
which may lead a performance penalty.  The processor can also behave in an
undefined manner if a huge page is mapped to a memory range that MTRRs
have mapped with multiple different memory types.  Therefore, the mapping
code falls back to use a smaller page size toward 4KB when a mapping range
is covered by non-WB type of MTRRs.  The WB type of MTRRs has no affect on
the PAT memory types.

The patchset introduces HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP, which indicates that the arch
supports huge KVA mappings for ioremap().  User may specify a new kernel
option "nohugeiomap" to disable the huge I/O mapping capability of
ioremap() when necessary.

Patch 1-4 change common files to support huge I/O mappings.  There is no
change in the functinalities unless HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP is defined on the
architecture of the system.

Patch 5-6 implement the HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP funcs on x86, and set
HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP on x86.

This patch (of 6):

__get_vm_area_node() takes unsigned long size, which is a 64-bit value on
a 64-bit kernel.  However, fls(size) simply ignores the upper 32-bit.
Change to use fls_long() to handle the size properly.

5265047ac3 mm, thp: really limit transparent hugepage allocation to local node
Commit 077fcf116c ("mm/thp: allocate transparent hugepages on local
node") restructured alloc_hugepage_vma() with the intent of only
allocating transparent hugepages locally when there was not an effective
interleave mempolicy.

alloc_pages_exact_node() does not limit the allocation to the single node,
however, but rather prefers it.  This is because __GFP_THISNODE is not set
which would cause the node-local nodemask to be passed.  Without it, only
a nodemask that prefers the local node is passed.

Fix this by passing __GFP_THISNODE and falling back to small pages when
the allocation fails.

Commit 9f1b868a13 ("mm: thp: khugepaged: add policy for finding target
node") suffers from a similar problem for khugepaged, which is also fixed.

4167e9b2cf mm: remove GFP_THISNODE
NOTE: this is not about __GFP_THISNODE, this is only about GFP_THISNODE.

GFP_THISNODE is a secret combination of gfp bits that have different
behavior than expected.  It is a combination of __GFP_THISNODE,
__GFP_NORETRY, and __GFP_NOWARN and is special-cased in the page
allocator slowpath to fail without trying reclaim even though it may be
used in combination with __GFP_WAIT.

An example of the problem this creates: commit e97ca8e5b8 ("mm: fix
GFP_THISNODE callers and clarify") fixed up many users of GFP_THISNODE
that really just wanted __GFP_THISNODE.  The problem doesn't end there,
however, because even it was a no-op for alloc_misplaced_dst_page(),
which also sets __GFP_NORETRY and __GFP_NOWARN, and
migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page(), where __GFP_NORETRY and __GFP_NOWAIT
is set in GFP_TRANSHUGE.  Converting GFP_THISNODE to __GFP_THISNODE is a
no-op in these cases since the page allocator special-cases
__GFP_THISNODE && __GFP_NORETRY && __GFP_NOWARN.

It's time to just remove GFP_THISNODE entirely.  We leave __GFP_THISNODE
to restrict an allocation to a local node, but remove GFP_THISNODE and
its obscurity.  Instead, we require that a caller clear __GFP_WAIT if it
wants to avoid reclaim.

This allows the aforementioned functions to actually reclaim as they
should.  It also enables any future callers that want to do
__GFP_THISNODE but also __GFP_NORETRY && __GFP_NOWARN to reclaim.  The
rule is simple: if you don't want to reclaim, then don't set __GFP_WAIT.

Aside: ovs_flow_stats_update() really wants to avoid reclaim as well, so
it is unchanged.

b360edb43f mm, mempolicy: migrate_to_node should only migrate to node
migrate_to_node() is intended to migrate a page from one source node to
a target node.

Today, migrate_to_node() could end up migrating to any node, not only
the target node.  This is because the page migration allocator,
new_node_page() does not pass __GFP_THISNODE to
alloc_pages_exact_node().  This causes the target node to be preferred
but allows fallback to any other node in order of affinity.

Prevent this by allocating with __GFP_THISNODE.  If memory is not
available, -ENOMEM will be returned as appropriate.

3cb29d1117 cleancache: remove limit on the number of cleancache enabled filesystems
The limit equals 32 and is imposed by the number of entries in the
fs_poolid_map and shared_fs_poolid_map.  Nowadays it is insufficient,
because with containers on board a Linux host can have hundreds of
active fs mounts.

These maps were introduced by commit 49a9ab815a ("mm: cleancache:
lazy initialization to allow tmem backends to build/run as modules") in
order to allow compiling cleancache drivers as modules.  Real pool ids
are stored in these maps while super_block->cleancache_poolid points to
an entry in the map, so that on cleancache registration we can walk over
all (if there are <= 32 of them, of course) cleancache-enabled super
blocks and assign real pool ids.

Actually, there is absolutely no need in these maps, because we can
iterate over all super blocks immediately using iterate_supers.  This is
not racy, because cleancache_init_ops is called from mount_fs with
super_block->s_umount held for writing, while iterate_supers takes this
semaphore for reading, so if we call iterate_supers after setting
cleancache_ops, all super blocks that had been created before
cleancache_register_ops was called will be assigned pool ids by the
action function of iterate_supers while all newer super blocks will
receive it in cleancache_init_fs.

This patch therefore removes the maps and hence the artificial limit on
the number of cleancache enabled filesystems.

53d85c9856 cleancache: forbid overriding cleancache_ops
Currently, cleancache_register_ops returns the previous value of
cleancache_ops to allow chaining.  However, chaining, as it is
implemented now, is extremely dangerous due to possible pool id
collisions.  Suppose, a new cleancache driver is registered after the
previous one assigned an id to a super block.  If the new driver assigns
the same id to another super block, which is perfectly possible, we will
have two different filesystems using the same id.  No matter if the new
driver implements chaining or not, we are likely to get data corruption
with such a configuration eventually.

This patch therefore disables the ability to override cleancache_ops
altogether as potentially dangerous.  If there is already cleancache
driver registered, all further calls to cleancache_register_ops will
return EBUSY.  Since no user of cleancache implements chaining, we only
need to make minor changes to the code outside the cleancache core.

2f38ab2c3c mm: refactor do_wp_page, extract the page copy flow
In some cases, do_wp_page had to copy the page suffering a write fault
to a new location.  If the function logic decided that to do this, it
was done by jumping with a "goto" operation to the relevant code block.
This made the code really hard to understand.  It is also against the
kernel coding style guidelines.

This patch extracts the page copy and page table update logic to a
separate function.  It also clean up the naming, from "gotten" to
"wp_page_copy", and adds few comments.

Currently, this logic was "called" by using a goto jump.  This makes

further hampered by the unlock case containing large amount of logic
needed only in one of the 3 cases.

Using goto for cleanup is generally allowed.  However, moving the

refactoring in the next patch.

4e047f8977 mm: refactor do_wp_page, extract the reuse case
Currently do_wp_page contains 265 code lines.  It also contains 9 goto
statements, of which 5 are targeting labels which are not cleanup
related.  This makes the function extremely difficult to understand.

The following patches are an attempt at breaking the function to its
basic components, and making it easier to understand.

The patches are straight forward function extractions from do_wp_page.
As we extract functions, we remove unneeded parameters and simplify the
code as much as possible.  However, the functionality is supposed to
remain completely unchanged.  The patches also attempt to document the
functionality of each extracted function.  In patch 2, we split the
unlock logic to the contain logic relevant to specific needs of each use
case, instead of having huge number of conditional decisions in a single
unlock flow.

This patch (of 4):

When do_wp_page is ending, in several cases it needs to reuse the existing
page.  This is achieved by making the page table writable, and possibly
updating the page-cache state.

Currently, this logic was "called" by using a goto jump.  This makes
following the control flow of the function harder.  It is also against the
coding style guidelines for using goto.

As the code can easily be refactored into a specialized function, refactor
it out and simplify the code flow in do_wp_page.

b9ea25152e page_writeback: clean up mess around cancel_dirty_page()
This patch replaces cancel_dirty_page() with a helper function
account_page_cleaned() which only updates counters.  It's called from
truncate_complete_page() and from try_to_free_buffers() (hack for ext3).
Page is locked in both cases, page-lock protects against concurrent
dirtiers: see commit 2d6d7f9828 ("mm: protect set_page_dirty() from
ongoing truncation").

Delete_from_page_cache() shouldn't be called for dirty pages, they must
be handled by caller (either written or truncated).  This patch treats
final dirty accounting fixup at the end of __delete_from_page_cache() as
a debug check and adds WARN_ON_ONCE() around it.  If something removes
dirty pages without proper handling that might be a bug and unwritten
data might be lost.

Hugetlbfs has no dirty pages accounting, ClearPageDirty() is enough
here.

cancel_dirty_page() in nfs_wb_page_cancel() is redundant.  This is
helper for nfs_invalidate_page() and it's called only in case complete
invalidation.

The mess was started in v2.6.20 after commits 46d2277c79 ("Clean up
and make try_to_free_buffers() not race with dirty pages") and
3e67c0987d ("truncate: clear page dirtiness before running
try_to_free_buffers()") first was reverted right in v2.6.20 in commit
ecdfc9787f ("Resurrect 'try_to_free_buffers()' VM hackery"), second in
v2.6.25 commit a2b345642f ("Fix dirty page accounting leak with ext3
data=journal").

Custom fixes were introduced between these points.  NFS in v2.6.23, commit
1b3b4a1a2d ("NFS: Fix a write request leak in nfs_invalidate_page()").
Kludge in __delete_from_page_cache() in v2.6.24, commit 3a6927906f ("Do
dirty page accounting when removing a page from the page cache").  Since
v2.6.25 all of them are redundant.

ca0984caa8 mm: incorporate zero pages into transparent huge pages
This patch improves THP collapse rates, by allowing zero pages.

Currently THP can collapse 4kB pages into a THP when there are up to
khugepaged_max_ptes_none pte_none ptes in a 2MB range.  This patch counts
pte none and mapped zero pages with the same variable.

The patch was tested with a program that allocates 800MB of
memory, and performs interleaved reads and writes, in a pattern
that causes some 2MB areas to first see read accesses, resulting
in the zero pfn being mapped there.

To simulate memory fragmentation at allocation time, I modified
do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page to return VM_FAULT_FALLBACK for read faults.

Without the patch, only %50 of the program was collapsed into THP and the
percentage did not increase over time.

With this patch after 10 minutes of waiting khugepaged had collapsed %99
of the program's memory.

2149cdaef6 mm/compaction: enhance compaction finish condition
Compaction has anti fragmentation algorithm.  It is that freepage should
be more than pageblock order to finish the compaction if we don't find any
freepage in requested migratetype buddy list.  This is for mitigating
fragmentation, but, there is a lack of migratetype consideration and it is
too excessive compared to page allocator's anti fragmentation algorithm.

Not considering migratetype would cause premature finish of compaction.
For example, if allocation request is for unmovable migratetype, freepage
with CMA migratetype doesn't help that allocation and compaction should
not be stopped.  But, current logic regards this situation as compaction
is no longer needed, so finish the compaction.

Secondly, condition is too excessive compared to page allocator's logic.
We can steal freepage from other migratetype and change pageblock
migratetype on more relaxed conditions in page allocator.  This is
designed to prevent fragmentation and we can use it here.  Imposing hard
constraint only to the compaction doesn't help much in this case since
page allocator would cause fragmentation again.

To solve these problems, this patch borrows anti fragmentation logic from
page allocator.  It will reduce premature compaction finish in some cases
and reduce excessive compaction work.

stress-highalloc test in mmtests with non movable order 7 allocation shows
considerable increase of compaction success rate.

Compaction success rate (Compaction success * 100 / Compaction stalls, %)
31.82 : 42.20

I tested it on non-reboot 5 runs stress-highalloc benchmark and found that
there is no more degradation on allocation success rate than before.  That
roughly means that this patch doesn't result in more fragmentations.

Vlastimil suggests additional idea that we only test for fallbacks when
migration scanner has scanned a whole pageblock.  It looked good for
fragmentation because chance of stealing increase due to making more free
pages in certain pageblock.  So, I tested it, but, it results in decreased
compaction success rate, roughly 38.00.  I guess the reason that if system
is low memory condition, watermark check could be failed due to not enough
order 0 free page and so, sometimes, we can't reach a fallback check
although migrate_pfn is aligned to pageblock_nr_pages.  I can insert code
to cope with this situation but it makes code more complicated so I don't
include his idea at this patch.

4eb7dce620 mm/page_alloc: factor out fallback freepage checking
This is preparation step to use page allocator's anti fragmentation logic
in compaction.  This patch just separates fallback freepage checking part

dc67647b78 mm/cma: change fallback behaviour for CMA freepage
Freepage with MIGRATE_CMA can be used only for MIGRATE_MOVABLE and they
should not be expanded to other migratetype buddy list to protect them
from unmovable/reclaimable allocation.  Implementing these requirements in
__rmqueue_fallback(), that is, finding largest possible block of freepage
has bad effect that high order freepage with MIGRATE_CMA are broken
continually although there are suitable order CMA freepage.  Reason is
that they are not be expanded to other migratetype buddy list and next
__rmqueue_fallback() invocation try to finds another largest block of
freepage and break it again.  So, MIGRATE_CMA fallback should be handled
separately.  This patch introduces __rmqueue_cma_fallback(), that just
wrapper of __rmqueue_smallest() and call it before __rmqueue_fallback() if
migratetype == MIGRATE_MOVABLE.

This results in unintended behaviour change that MIGRATE_CMA freepage is
always used first rather than other migratetype as movable allocation's
fallback.  But, as already mentioned above, MIGRATE_CMA can be used only
for MIGRATE_MOVABLE, so it is better to use MIGRATE_CMA freepage first as
much as possible.  Otherwise, we needlessly take up precious freepages
with other migratetype and increase chance of fragmentation.

30467e0b3b mm, hotplug: fix concurrent memory hot-add deadlock
There's a deadlock when concurrently hot-adding memory through the probe
interface and switching a memory block from offline to online.

When hot-adding memory via the probe interface, add_memory() first takes
mem_hotplug_begin() and then device_lock() is later taken when registering
the newly initialized memory block.  This creates a lock dependency of (1)
mem_hotplug.lock (2) dev->mutex.

When switching a memory block from offline to online, dev->mutex is first
grabbed in device_online() when the write(2) transitions an existing
memory block from offline to online, and then online_pages() will take
mem_hotplug_begin().

This creates a lock inversion between mem_hotplug.lock and dev->mutex.
Vitaly reports that this deadlock can happen when kworker handling a probe
event races with systemd-udevd switching a memory block's state.

This patch requires the state transition to take mem_hotplug_begin()
before dev->mutex.  Hot-adding memory via the probe interface creates a
memory block while holding mem_hotplug_begin(), there is no way to take
dev->mutex first in this case.

online_pages() and offline_pages() are only called when transitioning
memory block state.  We now require that mem_hotplug_begin() is taken
before calling them -- this requires exporting the mem_hotplug_begin() and
mem_hotplug_done() to generic code.  In all hot-add and hot-remove cases,
mem_hotplug_begin() is done prior to device_online().  This is all that is
needed to avoid the deadlock.

I've noticed that there is no interfaces exposed by CMA which would let me
fuzz what's going on in there.

This small patchset exposes some information out to userspace, plus adds
the ability to trigger allocation and freeing from userspace.

This patch (of 3):

Implement a simple debugfs interface to expose information about CMA areas
in the system.

Useful for testing/sanity checks for CMA since it was impossible to
previously retrieve this information in userspace.

layout differ and using pte_page() on a huge pmd will return wrong
results.  Using pmd_page() instead fixes this.

All architectures that were touched by that commit have pmd_page()
defined, so this should not break anything on other architectures.

0b8def9d6d __generic_file_write_iter: keep ->ki_pos and return value consistent
A side effect worth noting: in O_APPEND case we set ->ki_pos early,
so if it turns out to be an error or a zero-length write, we'll
end up with ->ki_pos modified.  Safe, since all callers never
look at the ->ki_pos after the call of __generic_file_write_iter()
returning non-positive, all the way to caller of ->write_iter() and
those discard ->ki_pos when getting that.

b2edffdd91 fix mremap() vs. ioctx_kill() race
teach ->mremap() method to return an error and have it fail for
aio mappings in process of being killed

Note that in case of ->mremap() failure we need to undo move_page_tables()
we'd already done; we could call ->mremap() first, but then the failure of
move_page_tables() would require undoing whatever _successful_ ->mremap()
has done, which would be a lot more headache in general.

b7b04004ec mm: numa: mark huge PTEs young when clearing NUMA hinting faults
Base PTEs are marked young when the NUMA hinting information is cleared
but the same does not happen for huge pages which this patch addresses.

Note that migrated pages are not marked young as the base page migration
code does not assume that migrated pages have been referenced.  This
could be addressed but beyond the scope of this series which is aimed at
Dave Chinners shrink workload that is unlikely to be affected by this
issue.

074c238177 mm: numa: slow PTE scan rate if migration failures occur
Dave Chinner reported the following on https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/1/226

  Across the board the 4.0-rc1 numbers are much slower, and the degradation
  is far worse when using the large memory footprint configs. Perf points
  straight at the cause - this is from 4.0-rc1 on the "-o bhash=101073" config:

                           + async_page_fault

                 generic_exec_single
                 smp_call_function_single

This is showing excessive migration activity even though excessive
migrations are meant to get throttled.  Normally, the scan rate is tuned
on a per-task basis depending on the locality of faults.  However, if
migrations fail for any reason then the PTE scanner may scan faster if
the faults continue to be remote.  This means there is higher system CPU
overhead and fault trapping at exactly the time we know that migrations
cannot happen.  This patch tracks when migration failures occur and
slows the PTE scanner.

b191f9b106 mm: numa: preserve PTE write permissions across a NUMA hinting fault
Protecting a PTE to trap a NUMA hinting fault clears the writable bit
and further faults are needed after trapping a NUMA hinting fault to set
the writable bit again.  This patch preserves the writable bit when
trapping NUMA hinting faults.  The impact is obvious from the number of
minor faults trapped during the basis balancing benchmark and the system
CPU usage;

There is a similar drop in system CPU usage using Dave Chinner's xfsrepair
workload

  Amean    syst-xfsrepair      277.20 (  0.00%)      204.68 ( 26.16%)

The patch looks hacky but the alternatives looked worse.  The tidest was
to rewalk the page tables after a hinting fault but it was more complex
than this approach and the performance was worse.  It's not generally
safe to just mark the page writable during the fault if it's a write
fault as it may have been read-only for COW so that approach was
discarded.

bea66fbd11 mm: numa: group related processes based on VMA flags instead of page table flags
These are three follow-on patches based on the xfsrepair workload Dave
Chinner reported was problematic in 4.0-rc1 due to changes in page table
management -- https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/1/226.

Much of the problem was reduced by commit 53da3bc2ba ("mm: fix up numa
read-only thread grouping logic") and commit ba68bc0115 ("mm: thp:
Return the correct value for change_huge_pmd").  It was known that the
performance in 3.19 was still better even if is far less safe.  This
series aims to restore the performance without compromising on safety.

For the test of this mail, I'm comparing 3.19 against 4.0-rc4 and the
three patches applied on top

Overall the system CPU usage is comparable and the test is naturally a
bit variable.  The slowing of the scanner hurts numa01 but on this
machine it is an adverse workload and patches that dramatically help it
often hurt absolutely everything else.

Due to patch 2, the fault activity is interesting

Here the impact of slowing the PTE scanner on migratrion failures is

As xfsrepair was the reported workload here is the impact of the series

The really relevant lines as syst-xfsrepair which is the system CPU
usage when running xfsrepair.  Note that on my machine the overhead was
45% higher on 4.0-rc4 which may be part of what Dave is seeing.  Once we
preserve the write bit across faults, it's only 2.51% higher on average.
With the full series applied, system CPU usage is 24.6% lower on
average.

Again, the impact of preserving the write bit on minor faults is obvious
and the impact of slowing scanning after migration failures is obvious
on the PTE updates.  Note also that the number of pages migrated is much
reduced even though the headline performance is comparable.

FWIW, I also checked SPECjbb in different configurations but it's
similar observations -- minor faults lower, PTE update activity lower
and performance is roughly comparable against 3.19.

This patch (of 3):

Threads that share writable data within pages are grouped together as
related tasks.  This decision is based on whether the PTE is marked
dirty which is subject to timing races between the PTE scanner update
and when the application writes the page.  If the page is file-backed,
then background flushes and sync also affect placement.  This is
unpredictable behaviour which is impossible to reason about so this
patch makes grouping decisions based on the VMA flags.

cfa8694382 mm/page_alloc.c: call kernel_map_pages in unset_migrateype_isolate
Commit 3c605096d3 ("mm/page_alloc: restrict max order of merging on
isolated pageblock") changed the logic of unset_migratetype_isolate to
check the buddy allocator and explicitly call __free_pages to merge.

The page that is being freed in this path never had prep_new_page called
so set_page_refcounted is called explicitly but there is no call to
kernel_map_pages.  With the default kernel_map_pages this is mostly
harmless but if kernel_map_pages does any manipulation of the page
tables (unmapping or setting pages to read only) this may trigger a
fault:

    alloc_contig_range test_pages_isolated(ceb00, ced00) failed
    Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffffffc0cec00000
    pgd = ffffffc045fc4000

Fix this by calling kernel_map_pages to ensure the page is set in the

859b7a0e89 mm/slub: fix lockups on PREEMPT && !SMP kernels
Commit 9aabf810a6 ("mm/slub: optimize alloc/free fastpath by removing
preemption on/off") introduced an occasional hang for kernels built with
CONFIG_PREEMPT && !CONFIG_SMP.

The problem is the following loop the patch introduced to
slab_alloc_node and slab_free:

    do {
        tid = this_cpu_read(s->cpu_slab->tid);
        c = raw_cpu_ptr(s->cpu_slab);
    } while (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PREEMPT) && unlikely(tid != c->tid));

GCC 4.9 has been observed to hoist the load of c and c->tid above the
loop for !SMP kernels (as in this case raw_cpu_ptr(x) is compile-time
constant and does not force a reload).  On arm64 the generated assembly
looks like:

         ldr     x4, [x0,#8]
  loop:
         ldr     x1, [x0,#8]
         cmp     x1, x4
         b.ne    loop

If the thread is preempted between the load of c->tid (into x1) and tid
(into x4), and an allocation or free occurs in another thread (bumping
the cpu_slab's tid), the thread will be stuck in the loop until
s->cpu_slab->tid wraps, which may be forever in the absence of
allocations/frees on the same CPU.

This patch changes the loop condition to access c->tid with READ_ONCE.
This ensures that the value is reloaded even when the compiler would
otherwise assume it could cache the value, and also ensures that the
load will not be torn.

The cause is the "memset(pgdat, 0, sizeof(*pgdat))" at the end of
try_offline_node, which will reset all the content of pgdat to 0, as the
pgdat is accessed lock-free, so that the users still using the pgdat
will panic, such as the vmstat_update routine.

process A:				offline node XX:

vmstat_updat()
   refresh_cpu_vm_stats()
     for_each_populated_zone()
       find online node XX
     cond_resched()
					offline cpu and memory, then try_offline_node()
					node_set_offline(nid), and memset(pgdat, 0, sizeof(*pgdat))
       zone = next_zone(zone)
         pg_data_t *pgdat = zone->zone_pgdat;  // here pgdat is NULL now
           next_online_pgdat(pgdat)
             next_online_node(pgdat->node_id);  // NULL pointer access

So the solution here is postponing the reset of obsolete pgdat from
try_offline_node() to hotadd_new_pgdat(), and just resetting
pgdat->nr_zones and pgdat->classzone_idx to be 0 rather than the memset
0 to avoid breaking pointer information in pgdat.

f683739539 mm/pagewalk.c: prevent positive return value of walk_page_test() from being passed to callers
walk_page_test() is purely pagewalk's internal stuff, and its positive
return values are not intended to be passed to the callers of pagewalk.

However, in the current code if the last vma in the do-while loop in
walk_page_range() happens to return a positive value, it leaks outside
walk_page_range().  So the user visible effect is invalid/unexpected
return value (according to the reporter, mbind() causes it.)

This patch fixes it simply by reinitializing the return value after
checked.

Another exposed interface, walk_page_vma(), already returns 0 for such
cases so no problem.

3fe89b3e2a mm: fix anon_vma->degree underflow in anon_vma endless growing prevention
I have constantly stumbled upon "kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:399!" after
upgrading to 3.19 and had no luck with 4.0-rc1 neither.

So, after looking into new logic introduced by commit 7a3ef208e6 ("mm:
prevent endless growth of anon_vma hierarchy"), I found chances are that
unlink_anon_vmas() is called without incrementing dst->anon_vma->degree
in anon_vma_clone() due to allocation failure.  If dst->anon_vma is not
NULL in error path, its degree will be incorrectly decremented in
unlink_anon_vmas() and eventually underflow when exiting as a result of
another call to unlink_anon_vmas().  That's how "kernel BUG at
mm/rmap.c:399!" is triggered for me.

This patch fixes the underflow by dropping dst->anon_vma when allocation
fails.  It's safe to do so regardless of original value of dst->anon_vma
because dst->anon_vma doesn't have valid meaning if anon_vma_clone()
fails.  Besides, callers don't care dst->anon_vma in such case neither.

Also suggested by Michal Hocko, we can clean up vma_adjust() a bit as
anon_vma_clone() now does the work.

From 1ebf33901ecc75d9496862dceb1ef0377980587c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

2f800fbd77 ("writeback: fix dirtied pages accounting on redirty")
introduced account_page_redirty() which reverts stat updates for a
redirtied page, making BDI_DIRTIED no longer monotonically increasing.

bdi_update_write_bandwidth() uses the delta in BDI_DIRTIED as the
basis for bandwidth calculation.  While unlikely, since the above
patch, the newer value may be lower than the recorded past value and
underflow the bandwidth calculation leading to a wild result.

Fix it by subtracing min of the old and new values when calculating
delta.  AFAIK, there hasn't been any report of it happening but the
resulting erratic behavior would be non-critical and temporary, so
it's possible that the issue is happening without being reported.  The
risk of the fix is very low, so tagged for -stable.

7feee590bb memcg: disable hierarchy support if bound to the legacy cgroup hierarchy
If the memory cgroup controller is initially mounted in the scope of the
default cgroup hierarchy and then remounted to a legacy hierarchy, it will
still have hierarchy support enabled, which is incorrect.  We should
disable hierarchy support if bound to the legacy cgroup hierarchy.

a5a6579db3 mm: reorder can_do_mlock to fix audit denial
A userspace call to mmap(MAP_LOCKED) may result in the successful locking
of memory while also producing a confusing audit log denial.  can_do_mlock
checks capable and rlimit.  If either of these return positive
can_do_mlock returns true.  The capable check leads to an LSM hook used by
apparmour and selinux which produce the audit denial.  Reordering so
rlimit is checked first eliminates the denial on success, only recording a
denial when the lock is unsuccessful as a result of the denial.

a5af5aa8b6 kasan, module, vmalloc: rework shadow allocation for modules
Current approach in handling shadow memory for modules is broken.

Shadow memory could be freed only after memory shadow corresponds it is no
longer used.  vfree() called from interrupt context could use memory its
freeing to store 'struct llist_node' in it:

    void vfree(const void *addr)
    {
    ...
        if (unlikely(in_interrupt())) {
            struct vfree_deferred *p = this_cpu_ptr(&vfree_deferred);
            if (llist_add((struct llist_node *)addr, &p->list))
                    schedule_work(&p->wq);

Later this list node used in free_work() which actually frees memory.
Currently module_memfree() called in interrupt context will free shadow
before freeing module's memory which could provoke kernel crash.

So shadow memory should be freed after module's memory.  However, such
deallocation order could race with kasan_module_alloc() in module_alloc().

Free shadow right before releasing vm area.  At this point vfree()'d
memory is not used anymore and yet not available for other allocations.
New VM_KASAN flag used to indicate that vm area has dynamically allocated
shadow memory so kasan frees shadow only if it was previously allocated.

850fc430f4 mm: cma: fix CMA aligned offset calculation
The CMA aligned offset calculation is incorrect for non-zero order_per_bit
values.

For example, if cma->order_per_bit=1, cma->base_pfn= 0x2f800000 and
align_order=12, the function returns a value of 0x17c00 instead of 0x400.

This patch fixes the CMA aligned offset calculation.

The previous calculation was wrong and would return too-large values for
the offset, so that when cma_alloc looks for free pages in the bitmap with
the requested alignment > order_per_bit, it starts too far into the bitmap
and so CMA allocations will fail despite there actually being plenty of
free pages remaining.  It will also probably have the wrong alignment.
With this change, we will get the correct offset into the bitmap.

One affected user is powerpc KVM, which has kvm_cma->order_per_bit set to
KVM_CMA_CHUNK_ORDER - PAGE_SHIFT, or 18 - 12 = 6.

44fc80573c mm, hugetlb: close race when setting PageTail for gigantic pages
Now that gigantic pages are dynamically allocatable, care must be taken to
ensure that p->first_page is valid before setting PageTail.

If this isn't done, then it is possible to race and have compound_head()
return NULL.
