Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
"Brazil's Independence Day pull request :-)
This is one of the biggest media pull requests, with 625 patches
affecting almost all parts of media (RC, DVB, V4L2, CEC, docs).
This contains:
- A lot of new drivers:
* DVB frontends: mxl5xx, stv0910, stv6111;
* camera flash: as3645a led driver;
* HDMI receiver: adv748X;
* camera sensor: Omnivision 6650 5M driver (ov6650);
* HDMI CEC: ao-cec meson driver;
* V4L2: Qualcom camss driver;
* Remote controller: gpio-ir-tx, pwm-ir-tx and zx-irdec drivers.
- The DDbridge DVB driver got a massive update, with makes it in sync
with modern hardware from that vendor;
- There's an important milestone on this series: the DVB
documentation was written in 2003, but only started to be updated
in 2007. It also used to contain several gaps from the time it was
kept out of tree, mentioning error codes and device nodes that
never existed upstream. On this series, it received a massive
update: all non-deprecated digital TV APIs are now in sync with the
current implementation;
- Some DVB APIs that aren't used by any upstream driver got removed;
- Other parts of the media documentation algo got updated, fixing
some bugs on its PDF output and making it compatible with Sphinx
version 1.6.
As the number of hacks required to build PDF output reduced, I hope
we'll have less troubles as newer versions of our documentation
toolchain are released (famous last words);
- As usual, lots of driver cleanups and improvements"

sound updates for 4.14-rc1
We have touched quite a lot of files but with fewer changes at this
cycle; as you can see, most of changes are trivial fixes, especially
constification patches. Among the massive attacks by constification
gangs, we had a few core changes (mostly for ASoC core), as well the
fixes and the updates by major vendors. Some highlights are below:
ALSA core:
- Fix possible races in control API user-TLV codes
- Small cleanup of PCM core
ASoC:
- Continued work for componentization; still half-baked, but we're
certainly progressing
- Use of devres for jack detection GPIOs, rather as a cleanup
- Jack detection support for Qualcomm MSM8916
- Support for Allwinner H3, Cirrus Logic CS43130, Intel Kabylake
systems with RT5663, Realtek RT274, TI TLV320AIC32x6 and Wolfson

powerpc updates for 4.14
Nothing really major this release, despite quite a lot of activity. Just lots of
things all over the place.
Some things of note include:
- Access via perf to a new type of PMU (IMC) on Power9, which can count both
core events as well as nest unit events (Memory controller etc).
- Optimisations to the radix MMU TLB flushing, mostly to avoid unnecessary Page
Walk Cache (PWC) flushes when the structure of the tree is not changing.
- Reworks/cleanups of do_page_fault() to modernise it and bring it closer to
other architectures where possible.
- Rework of our page table walking so that THP updates only need to send IPIs
to CPUs where the affected mm has run, rather than all CPUs.
- The size of our vmalloc area is increased to 56T on 64-bit hash MMU systems.
This avoids problems with the percpu allocator on systems with very sparse
NUMA layouts.
- STRICT_KERNEL_RWX support on PPC32.
- A new sched domain topology for Power9, to capture the fact that pairs of
cores may share an L2 cache.
- Power9 support for VAS, which is a new mechanism for accessing coprocessors,
and initial support for using it with the NX compression accelerator.
- Major work on the instruction emulation support, adding support for many new
instructions, and reworking it so it can be used to implement the emulation
needed to fixup alignment faults.
- Support for guests under PowerVM to use the Power9 XIVE interrupt controller.
And probably that many things again that are almost as interesting, but I had to
keep the list short. Plus the usual fixes and cleanups as always.

- Power9 support for VAS, which is a new mechanism for accessing
coprocessors, and initial support for using it with the NX
compression accelerator.
- Major work on the instruction emulation support, adding support for
many new instructions, and reworking it so it can be used to
implement the emulation needed to fixup alignment faults.
- Support for guests under PowerVM to use the Power9 XIVE interrupt
controller.
And probably that many things again that are almost as interesting,
but I had to keep the list short. Plus the usual fixes and cleanups as
always.

x86/mm: Reinitialize TLB state on hotplug and resume
When Linux brings a CPU down and back up, it switches to init_mm and then
loads swapper_pg_dir into CR3. With PCID enabled, this has the side effect
of masking off the ASID bits in CR3.
This can result in some confusion in the TLB handling code. If we
bring a CPU down and back up with any ASID other than 0, we end up
with the wrong ASID active on the CPU after resume. This could
cause our internal state to become corrupt, although major
corruption is unlikely because init_mm doesn't have any user pages.
More obviously, if CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y, we'll trip over an assertion
in the next context switch. The result of *that* is a failure to
resume from suspend with probability 1 - 1/6^(cpus-1).
Fix it by reinitializing cpu_tlbstate on resume and CPU bringup.

mm,fork: introduce MADV_WIPEONFORK
Introduce MADV_WIPEONFORK semantics, which result in a VMA being empty
in the child process after fork. This differs from MADV_DONTFORK in one
important way.
If a child process accesses memory that was MADV_WIPEONFORK, it will get
zeroes. The address ranges are still valid, they are just empty.
If a child process accesses memory that was MADV_DONTFORK, it will get a
segmentation fault, since those address ranges are no longer valid in
the child after fork.
Since MADV_DONTFORK also seems to be used to allow very large programs
to fork in systems with strict memory overcommit restrictions, changing
the semantics of MADV_DONTFORK might break existing programs.
MADV_WIPEONFORK only works on private, anonymous VMAs.
The use case is libraries that store or cache information, and want to
know that they need to regenerate it in the child process after fork.
Examples of this would be:
- systemd/pulseaudio API checks (fail after fork) (replacing a getpid
check, which is too slow without a PID cache)
- PKCS#11 API reinitialization check (mandated by specification)
- glibc's upcoming PRNG (reseed after fork)
- OpenSSL PRNG (reseed after fork)
The security benefits of a forking server having a re-inialized PRNG in
every child process are pretty obvious. However, due to libraries
having all kinds of internal state, and programs getting compiled with
many different versions of each library, it is unreasonable to expect
calling programs to re-initialize everything manually after fork.
A further complication is the proliferation of clone flags, programs
bypassing glibc's functions to call clone directly, and programs calling
unshare, causing the glibc pthread_atfork hook to not get called.
It would be better to have the kernel take care of this automatically.
The patch also adds MADV_KEEPONFORK, to undo the effects of a prior
MADV_WIPEONFORK.
This is similar to the OpenBSD minherit syscall with MAP_INHERIT_ZERO:

mm: add /proc/pid/smaps_rollup
/proc/pid/smaps_rollup is a new proc file that improves the performance
of user programs that determine aggregate memory statistics (e.g., total
PSS) of a process.
Android regularly "samples" the memory usage of various processes in
order to balance its memory pool sizes. This sampling process involves
opening /proc/pid/smaps and summing certain fields. For very large
processes, sampling memory use this way can take several hundred
milliseconds, due mostly to the overhead of the seq_printf calls in
task_mmu.c.
smaps_rollup improves the situation. It contains most of the fields of
/proc/pid/smaps, but instead of a set of fields for each VMA,
smaps_rollup instead contains one synthetic smaps-format entry
representing the whole process. In the single smaps_rollup synthetic
entry, each field is the summation of the corresponding field in all of
the real-smaps VMAs. Using a common format for smaps_rollup and smaps
allows userspace parsers to repurpose parsers meant for use with
non-rollup smaps for smaps_rollup, and it allows userspace to switch
between smaps_rollup and smaps at runtime (say, based on the
availability of smaps_rollup in a given kernel) with minimal fuss.
By using smaps_rollup instead of smaps, a caller can avoid the
significant overhead of formatting, reading, and parsing each of a large
process's potentially very numerous memory mappings. For sampling
system_server's PSS in Android, we measured a 12x speedup, representing
a savings of several hundred milliseconds.
One alternative to a new per-process proc file would have been including
PSS information in /proc/pid/status. We considered this option but
thought that PSS would be too expensive (by a few orders of magnitude)
to collect relative to what's already emitted as part of
/proc/pid/status, and slowing every user of /proc/pid/status for the
sake of readers that happen to want PSS feels wrong.
The code itself works by reusing the existing VMA-walking framework we
use for regular smaps generation and keeping the mem_size_stats
structure around between VMA walks instead of using a fresh one for each
VMA. In this way, summation happens automatically. We let seq_file
walk over the VMAs just as it does for regular smaps and just emit
nothing to the seq_file until we hit the last VMA.
Benchmarks:
using smaps:
iterations:1000 pid:1163 pss:220023808
0m29.46s real 0m08.28s user 0m20.98s system
using smaps_rollup:
iterations:1000 pid:1163 pss:220702720
0m04.39s real 0m00.03s user 0m04.31s system
We're using the PSS samples we collect asynchronously for
system-management tasks like fine-tuning oom_adj_score, memory use
tracking for debugging, application-level memory-use attribution, and
deciding whether we want to kill large processes during system idle
maintenance windows. Android has been using PSS for these purposes for
a long time; as the average process VMA count has increased and and
devices become more efficiency-conscious, PSS-collection inefficiency
has started to matter more. IMHO, it'd be a lot safer to optimize the
existing PSS-collection model, which has been fine-tuned over the years,
instead of changing the memory tracking approach entirely to work around
smaps-generation inefficiency.
Tim said:
: There are two main reasons why Android gathers PSS information:
:
: 1. Android devices can show the user the amount of memory used per
: application via the settings app. This is a less important use case.
:
: 2. We log PSS to help identify leaks in applications. We have found
: an enormous number of bugs (in the Android platform, in Google's own
: apps, and in third-party applications) using this data.
:
: To do this, system_server (the main process in Android userspace) will
: sample the PSS of a process three seconds after it changes state (for
: example, app is launched and becomes the foreground application) and about
: every ten minutes after that. The net result is that PSS collection is
: regularly running on at least one process in the system (usually a few
: times a minute while the screen is on, less when screen is off due to
: suspend). PSS of a process is an incredibly useful stat to track, and we
: aren't going to get rid of it. We've looked at some very hacky approaches
: using RSS ("take the RSS of the target process, subtract the RSS of the
: zygote process that is the parent of all Android apps") to reduce the
: accounting time, but it regularly overestimated the memory used by 20+
: percent. Accordingly, I don't think that there's a good alternative to
: using PSS.
:
: We started looking into PSS collection performance after we noticed random
: frequency spikes while a phone's screen was off; occasionally, one of the
: CPU clusters would ramp to a high frequency because there was 200-300ms of
: constant CPU work from a single thread in the main Android userspace
: process. The work causing the spike (which is reasonable governor
: behavior given the amount of CPU time needed) was always PSS collection.
: As a result, Android is burning more power than we should be on PSS
: collection.
:
: The other issue (and why I'm less sure about improving smaps as a
: long-term solution) is that the number of VMAs per process has increased
: significantly from release to release. After trying to figure out why we
: were seeing these 200-300ms PSS collection times on Android O but had not
: noticed it in previous versions, we found that the number of VMAs in the
: main system process increased by 50% from Android N to Android O (from
: ~1800 to ~2700) and varying increases in every userspace process. Android
: M to N also had an increase in the number of VMAs, although not as much.
: I'm not sure why this is increasing so much over time, but thinking about
: ASLR and ways to make ASLR better, I expect that this will continue to
: increase going forward. I would not be surprised if we hit 5000 VMAs on
: the main Android process (system_server) by 2020.
:
: If we assume that the number of VMAs is going to increase over time, then
: doing anything we can do to reduce the overhead of each VMA during PSS
: collection seems like the right way to go, and that means outputting an
: aggregate statistic (to avoid whatever overhead there is per line in
: writing smaps and in reading each line from userspace).

Huge page helps to reduce TLB miss rate, but it has higher cache footprint, sometimes this may cause some issue. For example, when clearing huge page on x86_64 platform, the cache footprint is 2M. But on a Xeon E5 v3 2699 CPU, there are 18 cores, 36 threads, and only 45M LLC (last level cache). That is, in average, there are 2.5M LLC for each core and 1.25M LLC for each thread. If the cache pressure is heavy when clearing the huge page, and we clear the huge page from the begin to the end, it is possible that the begin of huge page is evicted from the cache after we finishing clearing the end of the huge page. And it is possible for the application to access the begin of the huge page after clearing the huge page. To help the above situation, in this patch, when we clear a huge page, the order to clear sub-pages is changed. In quite some situation, we can get the address that the application will access after we clear the huge page, for example, in a page fault handler. Instead of clearing the huge page from begin to end, we will clear the sub-pages farthest from the the sub-page to access firstly, and clear the sub-page to access last. This will make the sub-page to access most cache-hot and sub-pages around it more cache-hot too. If we cannot know the address the application will access, the begin of the huge page is assumed to be the the address the application will access. With this patch, the throughput increases ~28.3% in vm-scalability anon-w-seq test case with 72 processes on a 2 socket Xeon E5 v3 2699 system (36 cores, 72 threads). The test case creates 72 processes, each process mmap a big anonymous memory area and writes to it from the begin to the end. For each process, other processes could be seen as other workload which generates heavy cache pressure. At the same time, the cache miss rate reduced from ~33.4% to ~31.7%, the IPC (instruction per cycle) increased from 0.56 to 0.74, and the time spent in user space is reduced ~7.9% Christopher Lameter suggests to clear bytes inside a sub-page from end to begin too. But tests show no visible performance difference in the tests. May because the size of page is small compared with the cache size. Thanks Andi Kleen to propose to use address to access to determine the order of sub-pages to clear. The hugetlbfs access address could be improved, will do that in another patch.

mm: oom: let oom_reap_task and exit_mmap run concurrently
This is purely required because exit_aio() may block and exit_mmap() may
never start, if the oom_reap_task cannot start running on a mm with
mm_users == 0.
At the same time if the OOM reaper doesn't wait at all for the memory of
the current OOM candidate to be freed by exit_mmap->unmap_vmas, it would
generate a spurious OOM kill.
If it wasn't because of the exit_aio or similar blocking functions in
the last mmput, it would be enough to change the oom_reap_task() in the
case it finds mm_users == 0, to wait for a timeout or to wait for
__mmput to set MMF_OOM_SKIP itself, but it's not just exit_mmap the
problem here so the concurrency of exit_mmap and oom_reap_task is
apparently warranted.
It's a non standard runtime, exit_mmap() runs without mmap_sem, and
oom_reap_task runs with the mmap_sem for reading as usual (kind of
MADV_DONTNEED).
The race between the two is solved with a combination of
tsk_is_oom_victim() (serialized by task_lock) and MMF_OOM_SKIP
(serialized by a dummy down_write/up_write cycle on the same lines of
the ksm_exit method).
If the oom_reap_task() may be running concurrently during exit_mmap,
exit_mmap will wait it to finish in down_write (before taking down mm
structures that would make the oom_reap_task fail with use after free).
If exit_mmap comes first, oom_reap_task() will skip the mm if
MMF_OOM_SKIP is already set and in turn all memory is already freed and
furthermore the mm data structures may already have been taken down by
free_pgtables.

swap: choose swap device according to numa node
If the system has more than one swap device and swap device has the node information, we can make use of this information to decide which swap device to use in get_swap_pages() to get better performance. The current code uses a priority based list, swap_avail_list, to decide which swap device to use and if multiple swap devices share the same priority, they are used round robin. This patch changes the previous single global swap_avail_list into a per-numa-node list, i.e. for each numa node, it sees its own priority based list of available swap devices. Swap device's priority can be promoted on its matching node's swap_avail_list. The current swap device's priority is set as: user can set a >=0 value, or the system will pick one starting from -1 then downwards. The priority value in the swap_avail_list is the negated value of the swap device's due to plist being sorted from low to high. The new policy doesn't change the semantics for priority >=0 cases, the previous starting from -1 then downwards now becomes starting from -2 then downwards and -1 is reserved as the promoted value. Take 4-node EX machine as an example, suppose 4 swap devices are available, each sit on a different node: swapA on node 0 swapB on node 1 swapC on node 2 swapD on node 3 After they are all swapped on in the sequence of ABCD. Current behaviour: their priorities will be: swapA: -1 swapB: -2 swapC: -3 swapD: -4 And their position in the global swap_avail_list will be: swapA -> swapB -> swapC -> swapD prio:1 prio:2 prio:3 prio:4 New behaviour: their priorities will be(note that -1 is skipped): swapA: -2 swapB: -3 swapC: -4 swapD: -5 And their positions in the 4 swap_avail_lists[nid] will be: swap_avail_lists[0]: /* node 0's available swap device list */ swapA -> swapB -> swapC -> swapD prio:1 prio:3 prio:4 prio:5 swap_avali_lists[1]: /* node 1's available swap device list */ swapB -> swapA -> swapC -> swapD prio:1 prio:2 prio:4 prio:5 swap_avail_lists[2]: /* node 2's available swap device list */ swapC -> swapA -> swapB -> swapD prio:1 prio:2 prio:3 prio:5 swap_avail_lists[3]: /* node 3's available swap device list */ swapD -> swapA -> swapB -> swapC prio:1 prio:2 prio:3 prio:4 To see the effect of the patch, a test that starts N process, each mmap a region of anonymous memory and then continually write to it at random position to trigger both swap in and out is used. On a 2 node Skylake EP machine with 64GiB memory, two 170GB SSD drives are used as swap devices with each attached to a different node, the result is: runtime=30m/processes=32/total test size=128G/each process mmap region=4G kernel throughput vanilla 13306 auto-binding 15169 +14% runtime=30m/processes=64/total test size=128G/each process mmap region=2G kernel throughput vanilla 11885 auto-binding 14879 +25% [aaron.lu@intel.com: v2] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170814053130.GD2369@aaronlu.sh.intel.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170816024439.GA10925@aaronlu.sh.intel.com [akpm@linux-foundation.org: use kmalloc_array()] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170814053130.GD2369@aaronlu.sh.intel.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170816024439.GA10925@aaronlu.sh.intel.com Signed-off-by: Aaron Lu <aaron.lu@intel.com> Cc: "Chen, Tim C" <tim.c.chen@intel.com> Cc: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

mm: replace TIF_MEMDIE checks by tsk_is_oom_victim
TIF_MEMDIE is set only to the tasks whick were either directly selected by the OOM killer or passed through mark_oom_victim from the allocator path. tsk_is_oom_victim is more generic and allows to identify all tasks (threads) which share the mm with the oom victim. Please note that the freezer still needs to check TIF_MEMDIE because we cannot thaw tasks which do not participage in oom_victims counting otherwise a !TIF_MEMDIE task could interfere after oom_disbale returns.

mm, oom: do not rely on TIF_MEMDIE for memory reserves access
For ages we have been relying on TIF_MEMDIE thread flag to mark OOM
victims and then, among other things, to give these threads full access
to memory reserves. There are few shortcomings of this implementation,
though.
First of all and the most serious one is that the full access to memory
reserves is quite dangerous because we leave no safety room for the
system to operate and potentially do last emergency steps to move on.
Secondly this flag is per task_struct while the OOM killer operates on
mm_struct granularity so all processes sharing the given mm are killed.
Giving the full access to all these task_structs could lead to a quick
memory reserves depletion. We have tried to reduce this risk by giving
TIF_MEMDIE only to the main thread and the currently allocating task but
that doesn't really solve this problem while it surely opens up a room
for corner cases - e.g. GFP_NO{FS,IO} requests might loop inside the
allocator without access to memory reserves because a particular thread
was not the group leader.
Now that we have the oom reaper and that all oom victims are reapable

z3fold: use per-cpu unbuddied lists
It's been noted that z3fold doesn't scale well when it's run in a large number of threads on many cores, which can be easily reproduced with fio 'randrw' test with --numjobs=32. E.g. the result for 1 cluster (4 cores) is: Run status group 0 (all jobs): READ: io=244785MB, aggrb=496883KB/s, minb=15527KB/s, ... WRITE: io=246735MB, aggrb=500841KB/s, minb=15651KB/s, ... While for 8 cores (2 clusters) the result is: Run status group 0 (all jobs): READ: io=244785MB, aggrb=265942KB/s, minb=8310KB/s, ... WRITE: io=246735MB, aggrb=268060KB/s, minb=8376KB/s, ... The bottleneck here is the pool lock which many threads become waiting upon. To reduce that spin lock contention, z3fold can operate only on the lists local to the current CPU whenever possible. Due to the nature of z3fold unbuddied list handling (it only takes the first entry off the list on a hot path), if the z3fold pool is big enough and balanced well enough, limiting search to only local unbuddied list doesn't lead to a significant compression ratio degrade (2.57x vs 2.65x in our measurements). This patch also introduces two worker threads: one for async in-page object layout optimization and one for releasing freed pages. This is done to speed up z3fold_free() which is often on a hot path. The fio results for 8-core case are now the following: Run status group 0 (all jobs): READ: io=244785MB, aggrb=1568.3MB/s, minb=50182KB/s, ... WRITE: io=246735MB, aggrb=1580.8MB/s, minb=50582KB/s, ... So we're in for almost 6x performance increase.

mm, swap: don't use VMA based swap readahead if HDD is used as swap
VMA based swap readahead will readahead the virtual pages that is continuous in the virtual address space. While the original swap readahead will readahead the swap slots that is continuous in the swap device. Although VMA based swap readahead is more correct for the swap slots to be readahead, it will trigger more small random readings, which may cause the performance of HDD (hard disk) to degrade heavily, and may finally exceed the benefit. To avoid the issue, in this patch, if the HDD is used as swap, the VMA based swap readahead will be disabled, and the original swap readahead will be used instead.

mm, swap: VMA based swap readahead
The swap readahead is an important mechanism to reduce the swap in latency. Although pure sequential memory access pattern isn't very popular for anonymous memory, the space locality is still considered valid. In the original swap readahead implementation, the consecutive blocks in swap device are readahead based on the global space locality estimation. But the consecutive blocks in swap device just reflect the order of page reclaiming, don't necessarily reflect the access pattern in virtual memory. And the different tasks in the system may have different access patterns, which makes the global space locality estimation incorrect. In this patch, when page fault occurs, the virtual pages near the fault address will be readahead instead of the swap slots near the fault swap slot in swap device. This avoid to readahead the unrelated swap slots. At the same time, the swap readahead is changed to work on per-VMA from globally. So that the different access patterns of the different VMAs could be distinguished, and the different readahead policy could be applied accordingly. The original core readahead detection and scaling algorithm is reused, because it is an effect algorithm to detect the space locality. The test and result is as follow, Common test condition ===================== Test Machine: Xeon E5 v3 (2 sockets, 72 threads, 32G RAM) Swap device: NVMe disk Micro-benchmark with combined access pattern ============================================ vm-scalability, sequential swap test case, 4 processes to eat 50G virtual memory space, repeat the sequential memory writing until 300 seconds. The first round writing will trigger swap out, the following rounds will trigger sequential swap in and out. At the same time, run vm-scalability random swap test case in background, 8 processes to eat 30G virtual memory space, repeat the random memory write until 300 seconds. This will trigger random swap-in in the background. This is a combined workload with sequential and random memory accessing at the same time. The result (for sequential workload) is as follow, Base Optimized ---- --------- throughput 345413 KB/s 414029 KB/s (+19.9%) latency.average 97.14 us 61.06 us (-37.1%) latency.50th 2 us 1 us latency.60th 2 us 1 us latency.70th 98 us 2 us latency.80th 160 us 2 us latency.90th 260 us 217 us latency.95th 346 us 369 us latency.99th 1.34 ms 1.09 ms ra_hit% 52.69% 99.98% The original swap readahead algorithm is confused by the background random access workload, so readahead hit rate is lower. The VMA-base readahead algorithm works much better. Linpack ======= The test memory size is bigger than RAM to trigger swapping. Base Optimized ---- --------- elapsed_time 393.49 s 329.88 s (-16.2%) ra_hit% 86.21% 98.82% The score of base and optimized kernel hasn't visible changes. But the elapsed time reduced and readahead hit rate improved, so the optimized kernel runs better for startup and tear down stages. And the absolute value of readahead hit rate is high, shows that the space locality is still valid in some practical workloads.

mm, swap: fix swap readahead marking
In the original implementation, it is possible that the existing pages in the swap cache (not newly readahead) could be marked as the readahead pages. This will cause the statistics of swap readahead be wrong and influence the swap readahead algorithm too. This is fixed via marking a page as the readahead page only if it is newly allocated and read from the disk. When testing with linpack, after the fixing the swap readahead hit rate increased from ~66% to ~86%.

So that the different access patterns of the different VMAs could be distinguished, and the different readahead policy could be applied accordingly. The original core readahead detection and scaling algorithm is reused, because it is an effect algorithm to detect the space locality. In addition to the swap readahead changes, some new sysfs interface is added to show the efficiency of the readahead algorithm and some other swap statistics. This new implementation will incur more small random read, on SSD, the improved correctness of estimation and readahead target should beat the potential increased overhead, this is also illustrated in the test results below. But on HDD, the overhead may beat the benefit, so the original implementation will be used by default. The test and result is as follow, Common test condition ===================== Test Machine: Xeon E5 v3 (2 sockets, 72 threads, 32G RAM) Swap device: NVMe disk Micro-benchmark with combined access pattern ============================================ vm-scalability, sequential swap test case, 4 processes to eat 50G virtual memory space, repeat the sequential memory writing until 300 seconds.

Instead of writing a separate memfd hugetlbfs test, modify the memfd_test program to take an optional argument 'hugetlbfs'. If the hugetlbfs argument is specified, basic memfd_create functionality will be exercised on hugetlbfs. If hugetlbfs is not specified, the current functionality of the test is unchanged. Note that many of the tests in memfd_test test file sealing operations. hugetlbfs does not support file sealing, therefore for hugetlbfs all sealing related tests are skipped. In order to test on hugetlbfs, there needs to be preallocated huge pages. A new script (run_tests) is added. This script will first run the existing memfd_create tests. It will then, attempt to allocate the required number of huge pages before running the hugetlbfs test. At the end of testing, it will release any huge pages allocated for testing purposes.

mm/shmem: add hugetlbfs support to memfd_create()
This patch came out of discussions in this e-mail thread: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1499357846-7481-1-git-send-email-mike.kravetz%40oracle.com The Oracle JVM team is developing a new garbage collection model. This new model requires multiple mappings of the same anonymous memory. One straight forward way to accomplish this is with memfd_create. They can use the returned fd to create multiple mappings of the same memory. The JVM today has an option to use (static hugetlb) huge pages. If this option is specified, they would like to use the same garbage collection model requiring multiple mappings to the same memory. Using hugetlbfs, it is possible to explicitly mount a filesystem and specify file paths in order to get an fd that can be used for multiple mappings. However, this introduces additional system admin work and coordination. Ideally they would like to get a hugetlbfs fd without requiring explicit mounting of a filesystem. Today, mmap and shmget can make use of hugetlbfs without explicitly mounting a filesystem. The patch adds this functionality to memfd_create. Add a new flag MFD_HUGETLB to memfd_create() that will specify the file to be created resides in the hugetlbfs filesystem. This is the generic hugetlbfs filesystem not associated with any specific mount point. As with other system calls that request hugetlbfs backed pages, there is the ability to encode huge page size in the flag arguments. hugetlbfs does not support sealing operations, therefore specifying MFD_ALLOW_SEALING with MFD_HUGETLB will result in EINVAL. Of course, the memfd_man page would need updating if this type of functionality moves forward.

mm, devm_memremap_pages: use multi-order radix for ZONE_DEVICE lookups
devm_memremap_pages() records mapped ranges in pgmap_radix with an entry per section's worth of memory (128MB). The key for each of those entries is a section number. This leads to false positives when devm_memremap_pages() is passed a section-unaligned range as lookups in the misalignment fail to return NULL. We can close this hole by using the pfn as the key for entries in the tree. The number of entries required to describe a remapped range is reduced by leveraging multi-order entries. In practice this approach usually yields just one entry in the tree if the size and starting address are of the same power-of-2 alignment. Previously we always needed nr_entries = mapping_size / 128MB.

In pcpu_get_vm_areas(), it checks each range is not overlapped. To make sure it is, only (N^2)/2 comparison is necessary, while current code does N^2 times. By starting from the next range, it achieves the goal and the continue could be removed. Also, - the overlap check of two ranges could be done with one clause - one typo in comment is fixed.

mm, hugetlb: do not allocate non-migrateable gigantic pages from movable zones
alloc_gigantic_page doesn't consider movability of the gigantic hugetlb
when scanning eligible ranges for the allocation. As 1GB hugetlb pages
are not movable currently this can break the movable zone assumption
that all allocations are migrateable and as such break memory hotplug.
Reorganize the code and use the standard zonelist allocations scheme
that we use for standard hugetbl pages. htlb_alloc_mask will ensure
that only migratable hugetlb pages will ever see a movable zone.

userfaultfd: call userfaultfd_unmap_prep only if __split_vma succeeds
A __split_vma is not a worthy event to report, and it's definitely not a unmap so it would be incorrect to report unmap for the whole region to the userfaultfd manager if a __split_vma fails. So only call userfaultfd_unmap_prep after the __vma_splitting is over and do_munmap cannot fail anymore. Also add unlikely because it's better to optimize for the vast majority of apps that aren't using userfaultfd in a non cooperative way. Ideally we should also find a way to eliminate the branch entirely if CONFIG_USERFAULTFD=n, but it would complicate things so stick to unlikely for now.

userfaultfd: selftest: exercise UFFDIO_COPY/ZEROPAGE -EEXIST
This will retry the UFFDIO_COPY/ZEROPAGE to verify it returns -EEXIST at the first invocation and then later every 10 seconds. In the filebacked MAP_SHARED case this also verifies the -EEXIST triggered in the filesystem pagecache insertion, if the offset in the file was not a hole. shmem MAP_SHARED tries to index the newly allocated pagecache in the radix tree before checking the pagetable so it doesn't need any assistance to exercise that case. hugetlbfs checks the pmd to be not none before trying to index the hugetlbfs page in the radix tree, so it requires to run UFFDIO_COPY into an alias mapping (the alternative would be to use MADV_DONTNEED to only zap the pagetables, but that doesn't work on hugetlbfs).

mm: userfaultfd: add feature to request for a signal delivery
In some cases, userfaultfd mechanism should just deliver a SIGBUS signal to the faulting process, instead of the page-fault event. Dealing with page-fault event using a monitor thread can be an overhead in these cases. For example applications like the database could use the signaling mechanism for robustness purpose. Database uses hugetlbfs for performance reason. Files on hugetlbfs filesystem are created and huge pages allocated using fallocate() API. Pages are deallocated/freed using fallocate() hole punching support. These files are mmapped and accessed by many processes as shared memory. The database keeps track of which offsets in the hugetlbfs file have pages allocated. Any access to mapped address over holes in the file, which can occur due to bugs in the application, is considered invalid and expect the process to simply receive a SIGBUS. However, currently when a hole in the file is accessed via the mapped address, kernel/mm attempts to automatically allocate a page at page fault time, resulting in implicitly filling the hole in the file. This may not be the desired behavior for applications like the database that want to explicitly manage page allocations of hugetlbfs files. Using userfaultfd mechanism with this support to get a signal, database application can prevent pages from being allocated implicitly when processes access mapped address over holes in the file. This patch adds UFFD_FEATURE_SIGBUS feature to userfaultfd mechnism to request for a SIGBUS signal. See following for previous discussion about the database requirement leading to this proposal as suggested by Andrea. http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg129224.html Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1501552446-748335-2-git-send-email-prakash.sangappa@oracle.com Signed-off-by: Prakash Sangappa <prakash.sangappa@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Mike Rapoport <rppt@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: Mike Kravetz <mike.kravetz@oracle.com> Cc: Shuah Khan <shuah@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

mm: rename global_page_state to global_zone_page_state
global_page_state is error prone as a recent bug report pointed out [1].
It only returns proper values for zone based counters as the enum it
gets suggests. We already have global_node_page_state so let's rename
global_page_state to global_zone_page_state to be more explicit here.
All existing users seems to be correct:
$ git grep "global_page_state(NR_" | sed 's@.*(\(NR_[A-Z_]*\)).*@\1@' | sort | uniq -c
2 NR_BOUNCE
2 NR_FREE_CMA_PAGES
11 NR_FREE_PAGES
1 NR_KERNEL_STACK_KB
1 NR_MLOCK
2 NR_PAGETABLE
This patch shouldn't introduce any functional change.

mm: hugetlb: define system call hugetlb size encodings in single file
Patch series "Consolidate system call hugetlb page size encodings". These patches are the result of discussions in https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/3/8/548. The following changes are made in the patch set: 1) Put all the log2 encoded huge page size definitions in a common header file. The idea is have a set of definitions that can be use as the basis for system call specific definitions such as MAP_HUGE_* and SHM_HUGE_*. 2) Remove MAP_HUGE_* definitions in arch specific files. All these definitions are the same. Consolidate all definitions in the primary user header file (uapi/linux/mman.h). 3) Remove SHM_HUGE_* definitions intended for user space from kernel header file, and add to user (uapi/linux/shm.h) header file. Add definitions for all known huge page size encodings as in mmap. This patch (of 3): If hugetlb pages are requested in mmap or shmget system calls, a huge page size other than default can be requested. This is accomplished by encoding the log2 of the huge page size in the upper bits of the flag argument. asm-generic and arch specific headers all define the same values for these encodings. Put common definitions in a single header file. The primary uapi header files for mmap and shm will use these definitions as a basis for definitions specific to those system calls.
