872e9a205c mm, memory_failure: don't send BUS_MCEERR_AO for action required error
Some processes dont't want to be killed early, but in "Action Required"
case, those also may be killed by BUS_MCEERR_AO when sharing memory with
other which is accessing the fail memory.  And sending SIGBUS with
BUS_MCEERR_AO for action required error is strange, so ignore the
non-current processes here.

6972f55c41 mm/memory: remove unnecessary pte_devmap case in copy_one_pte()
Since commit 25b2995a35 ("mm: remove MEMORY_DEVICE_PUBLIC support"),
the assignment to 'page' for pte_devmap case has been unnecessary.
Let's remove it.

c94b6923fa /proc/PID/smaps: Add PMD migration entry parsing
Now, when reading /proc/PID/smaps, the PMD migration entry in page table
is simply ignored.  To improve the accuracy of /proc/PID/smaps, its
parsing and processing is added.

To test the patch, we run pmbench to eat 400 MB memory in background,
then run /usr/bin/migratepages and `cat /proc/PID/smaps` every second.
The issue as follows can be reproduced within 60 seconds.

Before the patch, for the fully populated 400 MB anonymous VMA, some THP
pages under migration may be lost as below.

99395ee3f7 mm: ptdump: expand type of 'val' in note_page()
The page table entry is passed in the 'val' argument to note_page(),
however this was previously an "unsigned long" which is fine on 64-bit
platforms.  But for 32 bit x86 it is not always big enough to contain a
page table entry which may be 64 bits.

Change the type to u64 to ensure that it is always big enough.

1494e0c38e x86: mm: ptdump: calculate effective permissions correctly
Patch series "Fix W+X debug feature on x86"

Jan alerted me[1] that the W+X detection debug feature was broken in x86
by my change[2] to switch x86 to use the generic ptdump infrastructure.

Fundamentally the approach of trying to move the calculation of
effective permissions into note_page() was broken because note_page() is
only called for 'leaf' entries and the effective permissions are passed
down via the internal nodes of the page tree.  The solution I've taken
here is to create a new (optional) callback which is called for all
nodes of the page tree and therefore can calculate the effective
permissions.

Secondly on some configurations (32 bit with PAE) "unsigned long" is not
large enough to store the table entries.  The fix here is simple - let's
just use a u64.

[2] 2ae27137b2 ("x86: mm: convert dump_pagetables to use walk_page_range")

This patch (of 2):

By switching the x86 page table dump code to use the generic code the
effective permissions are no longer calculated correctly because the
note_page() function is only called for *leaf* entries.  To calculate
the actual effective permissions it is necessary to observe the full
hierarchy of the page tree.

Introduce a new callback for ptdump which is called for every entry and
can therefore update the prot_levels array correctly.  note_page() can
then simply access the appropriate element in the array.

module I found it's not working, because the current thread is a

As we will probably encounter this issue in the future as the users of
memalloc_use_memcg() grow, and it's nothing wrong for this usage, it's
better we fix it now.

4b82ab4f28 mm/memcg: automatically penalize tasks with high swap use
Add a memory.swap.high knob, which can be used to protect the system
from SWAP exhaustion.  The mechanism used for penalizing is similar to
memory.high penalty (sleep on return to user space).

That is not to say that the knob itself is equivalent to memory.high.
The objective is more to protect the system from potentially buggy tasks
consuming a lot of swap and impacting other tasks, or even bringing the
whole system to stand still with complete SWAP exhaustion.  Hopefully
without the need to find per-task hard limits.

Slowing misbehaving tasks down gradually allows user space oom killers
or other protection mechanisms to react.  oomd and earlyoom already do
killing based on swap exhaustion, and memory.swap.high protection will
help implement such userspace oom policies more reliably.

We can use one counter for number of pages allocated under pressure to
save struct task space and avoid two separate hierarchy walks on the hot
path.  The exact overage is calculated on return to user space, anyway.

Take the new high limit into account when determining if swap is "full".
Borrowing the explanation from Johannes:

  The idea behind "swap full" is that as long as the workload has plenty
  of swap space available and it's not changing its memory contents, it
  makes sense to generously hold on to copies of data in the swap device,
  even after the swapin.  A later reclaim cycle can drop the page without
  any IO.  Trading disk space for IO.

  But the only two ways to reclaim a swap slot is when they're faulted
  in and the references go away, or by scanning the virtual address space
  like swapoff does - which is very expensive (one could argue it's too
  expensive even for swapoff, it's often more practical to just reboot).

  So at some point in the fill level, we have to start freeing up swap
  slots on fault/swapin.  Otherwise we could eventually run out of swap
  slots while they're filled with copies of data that is also in RAM.

  We don't want to OOM a workload because its available swap space is
  filled with redundant cache.

8a5dbc657e mm/memcg: prepare for swap over-high accounting and penalty calculation
Patch series "memcg: Slow down swap allocation as the available space
gets depleted", v6.

Tejun describes the problem as follows:

When swap runs out, there's an abrupt change in system behavior - the
anonymous memory suddenly becomes unmanageable which readily breaks any
sort of memory isolation and can bring down the whole system.  To avoid
that, oomd [1] monitors free swap space and triggers kills when it drops
below the specific threshold (e.g.  15%).

While this works, it's far from ideal:

 - Depending on IO performance and total swap size, a given
   headroom might not be enough or too much.

 - oomd has to monitor swap depletion in addition to the usual
   pressure metrics and it currently doesn't consider memory.swap.max.

Solve this by adapting parts of the approach that memory.high uses -
slow down allocation as the resource gets depleted turning the depletion
behavior from abrupt cliff one to gradual degradation observable through
memory pressure metric.

[1] https://github.com/facebookincubator/oomd

This patch (of 4):

Slice the memory overage calculation logic a little bit so we can reuse
it to apply a similar penalty to the swap.  The logic which accesses the
memory-specific fields (use and high values) has to be taken out of
calculate_high_delay().

54b512e96d memcg: expose root cgroup's memory.stat
One way to measure the efficiency of memory reclaim is to look at the
ratio (pgscan+pfrefill)/pgsteal.  However at the moment these stats are
not updated consistently at the system level and the ratio of these are
not very meaningful.  The pgsteal and pgscan are updated for only global
reclaim while pgrefill gets updated for global as well as cgroup
reclaim.

Please note that this difference is only for system level vmstats.  The
cgroup stats returned by memory.stat are actually consistent.  The
cgroup's pgsteal contains number of reclaimed pages for global as well
as cgroup reclaim.  So, one way to get the system level stats is to get
these stats from root's memory.stat, so, expose memory.stat for the root
cgroup.

From Johannes Weiner:
	There are subtle differences between /proc/vmstat and
	memory.stat, and cgroup-aware code that wants to watch the full
	hierarchy currently has to know about these intricacies and
	translate semantics back and forth.

	Generally having the fully recursive memory.stat at the root
	level could help a broader range of usecases.

Why not fix the stats by including both the global and cgroup reclaim
activity instead of exposing root cgroup's memory.stat? The reason is
the benefit of having metrics exposing the activity that happens purely
due to machine capacity rather than localized activity that happens due
to the limits throughout the cgroup tree.  Additionally there are
userspace tools like sysstat(sar) which reads these stats to inform
about the system level reclaim activity.  So, we should not break such
use-cases.

a6f5576bb1 mm, memcg: add workingset_restore in memory.stat
There's a new workingset counter introduced in commit 1899ad18c6 ("mm:
workingset: tell cache transitions from workingset thrashing").  With
the help of this counter we can know the workingset is transitioning or
thrashing.  To leverage the benifit of this counter to memcg, we should
introduce it into memory.stat.  Then we could know the workingset of the
workload inside a memcg better.

Bellow is the verification of this new counter in memory.stat.  Read a
file into the memory and then read it again to make these pages be
active.  The size of this file is 1G.  (memory.max is greater than file
size) The counters in memory.stat will be

	inactive_file 0
	active_file 1073639424

	workingset_refault 0
	workingset_activate 0
	workingset_restore 0
	workingset_nodereclaim 0

Trigger the memcg reclaim by setting a lower value to memory.high, and
then some pages will be demoted into inactive list, and then some pages
in the inactive list will be evicted into the storage.

	inactive_file 498094080
	active_file 310063104

	workingset_refault 0
	workingset_activate 0
	workingset_restore 0
	workingset_nodereclaim 0

Then recover the memory.high and read the file into memory again.  As a
result of it, the transitioning will occur.  Bellow is the result of
this transitioning,

	inactive_file 498094080
	active_file 575397888

	workingset_refault 64746
	workingset_activate 64746
	workingset_restore 64746
	workingset_nodereclaim 0

6f7939405f mm: swapfile: fix /proc/swaps heading and Size/Used/Priority alignment
Fix the heading and Size/Used/Priority field alignments in /proc/swaps.
If the Size and/or Used value is >= 10000000 (8 bytes), then the
alignment by using tab characters is broken.

This patch maintains the use of tabs for alignment.  If spaces are
preferred, we can just use a Field Width specifier for the bytes and
inuse fields.  That way those fields don't have to be a multiple of 8
bytes in width.  E.g., with a field width of 12, both Size and Used
would always fit on the first line of an 80-column wide terminal (only
Priority would be on the second line).

There are actually 2 problems: heading alignment and field width.  On an
xterm, if Used is 7 bytes in length, the tab does nothing, and the
display is like this, with no space/tab between the Used and Priority
fields.  (ugh)

4907058881 swap: reduce lock contention on swap cache from swap slots allocation
In some swap scalability test, it is found that there are heavy lock
contention on swap cache even if we have split one swap cache radix tree
per swap device to one swap cache radix tree every 64 MB trunk in commit
4b3ef9daa4 ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB trunks").

The reason is as follow.  After the swap device becomes fragmented so
that there's no free swap cluster, the swap device will be scanned
linearly to find the free swap slots.  swap_info_struct->cluster_next is
the next scanning base that is shared by all CPUs.  So nearby free swap
slots will be allocated for different CPUs.  The probability for
multiple CPUs to operate on the same 64 MB trunk is high.  This causes
the lock contention on the swap cache.

To solve the issue, in this patch, for SSD swap device, a percpu version
next scanning base (cluster_next_cpu) is added.  Every CPU will use its
own per-cpu next scanning base.  And after finishing scanning a 64MB
trunk, the per-cpu scanning base will be changed to the beginning of
another randomly selected 64MB trunk.  In this way, the probability for
multiple CPUs to operate on the same 64 MB trunk is reduced greatly.
Thus the lock contention is reduced too.  For HDD, because sequential
access is more important for IO performance, the original shared next
scanning base is used.

To test the patch, we have run 16-process pmbench memory benchmark on a
2-socket server machine with 48 cores.  One ram disk is configured as the
swap device per socket.  The pmbench working-set size is much larger than
the available memory so that swapping is triggered.  The memory read/write
ratio is 80/20 and the accessing pattern is random.  In the original
implementation, the lock contention on the swap cache is heavy.  The perf
profiling data of the lock contention code path is as following,

 _raw_spin_lock_irq.add_to_swap_cache.add_to_swap.shrink_page_list:      7.91
 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave.__remove_mapping.shrink_page_list:               7.11
 _raw_spin_lock.swapcache_free_entries.free_swap_slot.__swap_entry_free: 2.51
 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave.swap_cgroup_record.mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap:     1.66
 _raw_spin_lock_irq.shrink_inactive_list.shrink_lruvec.shrink_node:      1.29
 _raw_spin_lock.free_pcppages_bulk.drain_pages_zone.drain_pages:         1.03
 _raw_spin_lock_irq.shrink_active_list.shrink_lruvec.shrink_node:        0.93

After applying this patch, it becomes,

 _raw_spin_lock.swapcache_free_entries.free_swap_slot.__swap_entry_free: 3.58
 _raw_spin_lock_irq.shrink_inactive_list.shrink_lruvec.shrink_node:      2.3
 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave.swap_cgroup_record.mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap:     2.26
 _raw_spin_lock_irq.shrink_active_list.shrink_lruvec.shrink_node:        1.8
 _raw_spin_lock.free_pcppages_bulk.drain_pages_zone.drain_pages:         1.19

The lock contention on the swap cache is almost eliminated.

And the pmbench score increases 18.5%.  The swapin throughput increases
18.7% from 2.96 GB/s to 3.51 GB/s.  While the swapout throughput increases
18.5% from 2.99 GB/s to 3.54 GB/s.

We need really fast disk to show the benefit.  I have tried this on 2
Intel P3600 NVMe disks.  The performance improvement is only about 1%.
The improvement should be better on the faster disks, such as Intel Optane
disk.

Currently those macros are defined with some magic order, which makes

This patch split those macros into three categories:

    flag
    special value for first swap_map
    special value for continued swap_map

May this help audiences a little.

ed43af1097 swap: try to scan more free slots even when fragmented
Now, the scalability of swap code will drop much when the swap device
becomes fragmented, because the swap slots allocation batching stops
working.  To solve the problem, in this patch, we will try to scan a
little more swap slots with restricted effort to batch the swap slots
allocation even if the swap device is fragmented.  Test shows that the
benchmark score can increase up to 37.1% with the patch.  Details are as
follows.

The swap code has a per-cpu cache of swap slots.  These batch swap space
allocations to improve swap subsystem scaling.  In the following code
path,

  add_to_swap()
    get_swap_page()
      refill_swap_slots_cache()
        get_swap_pages()
	  scan_swap_map_slots()

scan_swap_map_slots() and get_swap_pages() can return multiple swap
slots for each call.  These slots will be cached in the per-CPU swap
slots cache, so that several following swap slot requests will be
fulfilled there to avoid the lock contention in the lower level swap
space allocation/freeing code path.

But this only works when there are free swap clusters.  If a swap device
becomes so fragmented that there's no free swap clusters,
scan_swap_map_slots() and get_swap_pages() will return only one swap
slot for each call in the above code path.  Effectively, this falls back
to the situation before the swap slots cache was introduced, the heavy
lock contention on the swap related locks kills the scalability.

Why does it work in this way? Because the swap device could be large,
and the free swap slot scanning could be quite time consuming, to avoid
taking too much time to scanning free swap slots, the conservative
method was used.

In fact, this can be improved via scanning a little more free slots with
strictly restricted effort.  Which is implemented in this patch.  In
scan_swap_map_slots(), after the first free swap slot is gotten, we will
try to scan a little more, but only if we haven't scanned too many slots
(< LATENCY_LIMIT).  That is, the added scanning latency is strictly
restricted.

To test the patch, we have run 16-process pmbench memory benchmark on a
2-socket server machine with 48 cores.  Multiple ram disks are
configured as the swap devices.  The pmbench working-set size is much
larger than the available memory so that swapping is triggered.  The
memory read/write ratio is 80/20 and the accessing pattern is random, so
the swap space becomes highly fragmented during the test.  In the
original implementation, the lock contention on swap related locks is
very heavy.  The perf profiling data of the lock contention code path is
as following,

 _raw_spin_lock.get_swap_pages.get_swap_page.add_to_swap:             21.03
 _raw_spin_lock_irq.shrink_inactive_list.shrink_lruvec.shrink_node:    1.92
 _raw_spin_lock_irq.shrink_active_list.shrink_lruvec.shrink_node:      1.72
 _raw_spin_lock.free_pcppages_bulk.drain_pages_zone.drain_pages:       0.69

While after applying this patch, it becomes,

 _raw_spin_lock_irq.shrink_inactive_list.shrink_lruvec.shrink_node:    4.89
 _raw_spin_lock_irq.shrink_active_list.shrink_lruvec.shrink_node:      3.85
 _raw_spin_lock.free_pcppages_bulk.drain_pages_zone.drain_pages:       1.1
 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave.pagevec_lru_move_fn.__lru_cache_add.do_swap_page: 0.88

That is, the lock contention on the swap locks is eliminated.

And the pmbench score increases 37.1%.  The swapin throughput increases
45.7% from 2.02 GB/s to 2.94 GB/s.  While the swapout throughput increases
45.3% from 2.04 GB/s to 2.97 GB/s.

scan_swap_map_slots() is used to iterate swap_map[] array for an

case, the logic of this function is a little not easy to catch.

This patchset tries to clean up the logic a little:

  * shows the ssd/non-ssd case is handled mutually exclusively
  * remove some unnecessary goto for ssd case

This patch (of 3):

When si->cluster_nr is zero, function would reach done and return.  The
increased offset would not be used any more.  This means we can move the
offset increment into the if clause.

This brings a further code cleanup possibility.

ebc5951eea mm: swap: properly update readahead statistics in unuse_pte_range()
In unuse_pte_range() we blindly swap-in pages without checking if the
swap entry is already present in the swap cache.

By doing this, the hit/miss ratio used by the swap readahead heuristic
is not properly updated and this leads to non-optimal performance during
swapoff.

Tracing the distribution of the readahead size returned by the swap
readahead heuristic during swapoff shows that a small readahead size is
used most of the time as if we had only misses (this happens both with
cluster and vma readahead), for example:

r::swapin_nr_pages(unsigned long offset):unsigned long:$retval
        COUNT      EVENT
        36948      $retval = 8
        44151      $retval = 4
        49290      $retval = 1
        527771     $retval = 2

Checking if the swap entry is present in the swap cache, instead, allows
to properly update the readahead statistics and the heuristic behaves in a
better way during swapoff, selecting a bigger readahead size:

r::swapin_nr_pages(unsigned long offset):unsigned long:$retval
        COUNT      EVENT
        1618       $retval = 1
        4960       $retval = 2
        41315      $retval = 4
        103521     $retval = 8

In terms of swapoff performance the result is the following:

Testing environment
===================

 - Host:
   CPU: 1.8GHz Intel Core i7-8565U (quad-core, 8MB cache)
   HDD: PC401 NVMe SK hynix 512GB
   MEM: 16GB

 - Guest (kvm):
   8GB of RAM
   virtio block driver
   16GB swap file on ext4 (/swapfile)

Test case
=========
 - allocate 85% of memory
 - `systemctl hibernate` to force all the pages to be swapped-out to the
   swap file
 - resume the system
 - measure the time that swapoff takes to complete:
   # /usr/bin/time swapoff /swapfile

Result (swapoff time)
======
                  5.6 vanilla   5.6 w/ this patch
                  -----------   -----------------
cluster-readahead      22.09s              12.19s
    vma-readahead      18.20s              15.33s

Conclusion
==========

The specific use case this patch is addressing is to improve swapoff
performance in cloud environments when a VM has been hibernated, resumed
and all the memory needs to be forced back to RAM by disabling swap.

This change allows to better exploits the advantages of the readahead
heuristic during swapoff and this improvement allows to to speed up the
resume process of such VMs.

e792031019 ivtv: convert get_user_pages() --> pin_user_pages()
This code was using get_user_pages*(), in a "Case 2" scenario
(DMA/RDMA), using the categorization from [1].  That means that it's
time to convert the get_user_pages*() + put_page() calls to
pin_user_pages*() + unpin_user_pages() calls.

There is some helpful background in [2]: basically, this is a small part
of fixing a long-standing disconnect between pinning pages, and file
systems' use of those pages.

8d92890bd6 mm/writeback: discard NR_UNSTABLE_NFS, use NR_WRITEBACK instead
After an NFS page has been written it is considered "unstable" until a
COMMIT request succeeds.  If the COMMIT fails, the page will be
re-written.

These "unstable" pages are currently accounted as "reclaimable", either
in WB_RECLAIMABLE, or in NR_UNSTABLE_NFS which is included in a
'reclaimable' count.  This might have made sense when sending the COMMIT
required a separate action by the VFS/MM (e.g.  releasepage() used to
send a COMMIT).  However now that all writes generated by ->writepages()
will automatically be followed by a COMMIT (since commit 919e3bd9a8
("NFS: Ensure we commit after writeback is complete")) it makes more
sense to treat them as writeback pages.

So this patch removes NR_UNSTABLE_NFS and accounts unstable pages in
NR_WRITEBACK and WB_WRITEBACK.

A particular effect of this change is that when
wb_check_background_flush() calls wb_over_bg_threshold(), the latter
will report 'true' a lot less often as the 'unstable' pages are no
longer considered 'dirty' (as there is nothing that writeback can do
about them anyway).

Currently wb_check_background_flush() will trigger writeback to NFS even
when there are relatively few dirty pages (if there are lots of unstable
pages), this can result in small writes going to the server (10s of
Kilobytes rather than a Megabyte) which hurts throughput.  With this
patch, there are fewer writes which are each larger on average.

Where the NR_UNSTABLE_NFS count was included in statistics
virtual-files, the entry is retained, but the value is hard-coded as
zero.  static trace points and warning printks which mentioned this
counter no longer report it.

a37b0715dd mm/writeback: replace PF_LESS_THROTTLE with PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE
PF_LESS_THROTTLE exists for loop-back nfsd (and a similar need in the
loop block driver and callers of prctl(PR_SET_IO_FLUSHER)), where a
daemon needs to write to one bdi (the final bdi) in order to free up
writes queued to another bdi (the client bdi).

The daemon sets PF_LESS_THROTTLE and gets a larger allowance of dirty
pages, so that it can still dirty pages after other processses have been
throttled.  The purpose of this is to avoid deadlock that happen when
the PF_LESS_THROTTLE process must write for any dirty pages to be freed,
but it is being thottled and cannot write.

This approach was designed when all threads were blocked equally,
independently on which device they were writing to, or how fast it was.
Since that time the writeback algorithm has changed substantially with
different threads getting different allowances based on non-trivial
heuristics.  This means the simple "add 25%" heuristic is no longer
reliable.

The important issue is not that the daemon needs a *larger* dirty page
allowance, but that it needs a *private* dirty page allowance, so that
dirty pages for the "client" bdi that it is helping to clear (the bdi
for an NFS filesystem or loop block device etc) do not affect the
throttling of the daemon writing to the "final" bdi.

This patch changes the heuristic so that the task is not throttled when
the bdi it is writing to has a dirty page count below below (or equal
to) the free-run threshold for that bdi.  This ensures it will always be
able to have some pages in flight, and so will not deadlock.

In a steady-state, it is expected that PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE tasks might
still be throttled by global threshold, but that is acceptable as it is
only the deadlock state that is interesting for this flag.

This approach of "only throttle when target bdi is busy" is consistent
with the other use of PF_LESS_THROTTLE in current_may_throttle(), were
it causes attention to be focussed only on the target bdi.

So this patch
 - renames PF_LESS_THROTTLE to PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE,
 - removes the 25% bonus that that flag gives, and
 - If PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE is set, don't delay at all unless the
   global and the local free-run thresholds are exceeded.

Note that previously realtime threads were treated the same as
PF_LESS_THROTTLE threads.  This patch does *not* change the behvaiour
for real-time threads, so it is now different from the behaviour of nfsd
and loop tasks.  I don't know what is wanted for realtime.

b03143accd include/linux/pagemap.h: introduce attach/detach_page_private
Patch series "Introduce attach/detach_page_private to cleanup code".

This patch (of 10):

The logic in attach_page_buffers and __clear_page_buffers are quite
paired, but

1. they are located in different files.

2. attach_page_buffers is implemented in buffer_head.h, so it could be
   used by other files. But __clear_page_buffers is static function in
   buffer.c and other potential users can't call the function, md-bitmap
   even copied the function.

So, introduce the new attach/detach_page_private to replace them.  With
the new pair of function, we will remove the usage of attach_page_buffers
and __clear_page_buffers in next patches.  Thanks for suggestions about
the function name from Alexander Viro, Andreas Grünbacher, Christoph
Hellwig and Matthew Wilcox.
