Some architectures have a set of zero pages (coloured zero pages)
instead of only one zero page, in order to improve the cache
performance. In those cases, the kernel samepage merger (KSM) would
merge all the allocated pages that happen to be filled with zeroes to
the same deduplicated page, thus losing all the advantages of coloured
zero pages.
This behaviour is noticeable when a process accesses large arrays of
allocated pages containing zeroes. A test I conducted on s390 shows
that there is a speed penalty when KSM merges such pages, compared to
not merging them or using actual zero pages from the start without
breaking the COW.
This patch fixes this behaviour. When coloured zero pages are present,
the checksum of a zero page is calculated during initialisation, and
compared with the checksum of the current canditate during merging. In
case of a match, the normal merging routine is used to merge the page
with the correct coloured zero page, which ensures the candidate page is
checked to be equal to the target zero page.
A sysfs entry is also added to toggle this behaviour, since it can
potentially introduce performance regressions, especially on
architectures without coloured zero pages. The default value is
disabled, for backwards compatibility.
With this patch, the performance with KSM is the same as with non
COW-broken actual zero pages, which is also the same as without KSM.

The patch "mm, page_alloc: warn_alloc print nodemask" implicitly sets
the allocation nodemask to cpuset_current_mems_allowed when there is no
effective mempolicy. cpuset_current_mems_allowed is only effective when
cpusets are enabled, which is also printed by warn_alloc(), so setting
the nodemask to cpuset_current_mems_allowed is redundant and prevents
debugging issues where ac->nodemask is not set properly in the page
allocator.
This provides better debugging output since
cpuset_print_current_mems_allowed() is already provided.

Now that __GFP_NOFAIL doesn't override decisions to skip the oom killer
we are left with requests which require to loop inside the allocator
without invoking the oom killer (e.g. GFP_NOFS|__GFP_NOFAIL used by fs
code) and so they might, in very unlikely situations, loop for ever -
e.g. other parallel request could starve them.
This patch tries to limit the likelihood of such a lockup by giving
these __GFP_NOFAIL requests a chance to move on by consuming a small
part of memory reserves. We are using ALLOC_HARDER which should be
enough to prevent from the starvation by regular allocation requests,
yet it shouldn't consume enough from the reserves to disrupt high
priority requests (ALLOC_HIGH).
While we are at it, let's introduce a helper __alloc_pages_cpuset_fallback
which enforces the cpusets but allows to fallback to ignore them if the
first attempt fails. __GFP_NOFAIL requests can be considered important
enough to allow cpuset runaway in order for the system to move on. It
is highly unlikely that any of these will be GFP_USER anyway.

__alloc_pages_may_oom makes sure to skip the OOM killer depending on the
allocation request. This includes lowmem requests, costly high order
requests and others. For a long time __GFP_NOFAIL acted as an override
for all those rules. This is not documented and it can be quite
surprising as well. E.g. GFP_NOFS requests are not invoking the OOM
killer but GFP_NOFS|__GFP_NOFAIL does so if we try to convert some of
the existing open coded loops around allocator to nofail request (and we
have done that in the past) then such a change would have a non trivial
side effect which is far from obvious. Note that the primary motivation
for skipping the OOM killer is to prevent from pre-mature invocation.
The exception has been added by commit 82553a937f ("oom: invoke oom
killer for __GFP_NOFAIL"). The changelog points out that the oom killer
has to be invoked otherwise the request would be looping for ever. But
this argument is rather weak because the OOM killer doesn't really
guarantee a forward progress for those exceptional cases:
- it will hardly help to form costly order which in turn can result in
the system panic because of no oom killable task in the end - I believe
we certainly do not want to put the system down just because there is a
nasty driver asking for order-9 page with GFP_NOFAIL not realizing all
the consequences. It is much better this request would loop for ever
than the massive system disruption
- lowmem is also highly unlikely to be freed during OOM killer
- GFP_NOFS request could trigger while there is still a lot of memory
pinned by filesystems.
This patch simply removes the __GFP_NOFAIL special case in order to have a
more clear semantic without surprising side effects.

Tetsuo Handa has pointed out that commit 0a0337e0d1 ("mm, oom: rework

requests with __GFP_NOFAIL and withtout __GFP_REPEAT and those can fail
right now. My code inspection didn't reveal any such users in the tree
but it is true that this might lead to unexpected allocation failures
and subsequent OOPs.
__alloc_pages_slowpath wrt. GFP_NOFAIL is hard to follow currently.
There are few special cases but we are lacking a catch all place to be
sure we will not miss any case where the non failing allocation might
fail. This patch reorganizes the code a bit and puts all those special
cases under nopage label which is the generic go-to-fail path. Non
failing allocations are retried or those that cannot retry like
non-sleeping allocation go to the failure point directly. This should
make the code flow much easier to follow and make it less error prone
for future changes.
While we are there we have to move the stall check up to catch
potentially looping non-failing allocations.

show_mem() allows to filter out node specific data which is irrelevant
to the allocation request via SHOW_MEM_FILTER_NODES. The filtering is
done in skip_free_areas_node which skips all nodes which are not in the
mems_allowed of the current process. This works most of the time as
expected because the nodemask shouldn't be outside of the allocating
task but there are some exceptions. E.g. memory hotplug might want to
request allocations from outside of the allowed nodes (see
new_node_page).
Get rid of this hardcoded behavior and push the allocation mask down the
show_mem path and use it instead of cpuset_current_mems_allowed. NULL
nodemask is interpreted as cpuset_current_mems_allowed.

Patch series "show_mem updates", v2.
This is a mixture of one bug fix (patch 1), an enhancement (patch 2) and
cleanups (the rest of the series). First two patches should be really
straightforward. Patch 3 removes some arch specific show_mem
implementations because I think they are quite outdated and do not
really serve any useful purpose anymore. I think we should really
strive to have a consistent show_mem output regardless of the
architecture. If some architecture is really special and wants to dump
something additional we should do that via an arch specific hook.
The last patch adds nodemask parameter so that we do not rely on the
hardcoded mems_allowed of the current task when doing the node
filtering. I consider this more a cleanup than a fix because basically
all users use a nodemask which is a subset of mems_allowed. There is
only one call path in the memory hotplug which doesn't comply with this
but that is hardly something to worry about.
This patch (of 4):
Commit 599d0c954f ("mm, vmscan: move LRU lists to node") has added per
numa node statistics to show_mem but it forgot to add
skip_free_areas_node to filter out nodes which are outside of the
allocating task numa policy. Add this check to not pollute the output
with the pointless information.

get_scan_count() considers the whole node LRU size when
- doing SCAN_FILE due to many page cache inactive pages
- calculating the number of pages to scan
In both cases this might lead to unexpected behavior especially on 32b
systems where we can expect lowmem memory pressure very often.
A large highmem zone can easily distort SCAN_FILE heuristic because
there might be only few file pages from the eligible zones on the node
lru and we would still enforce file lru scanning which can lead to
trashing while we could still scan anonymous pages.
The later use of lruvec_lru_size can be problematic as well. Especially
when there are not many pages from the eligible zones. We would have to
skip over many pages to find anything to reclaim but shrink_node_memcg
would only reduce the remaining number to scan by SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX at
maximum. Therefore we can end up going over a large LRU many times
without actually having chance to reclaim much if anything at all. The
closer we are out of memory on lowmem zone the worse the problem will
be.
Fix this by filtering out all the ineligible zones when calculating the
lru size for both paths and consider only sc->reclaim_idx zones.
The patch would need to be tweaked a bit to apply to 4.10 and older but
I will do that as soon as it hits the Linus tree in the next merge
window.

PGDEACTIVATE represents the number of pages moved from the active list
to the inactive list. At least this sounds like the original motivation
of the counter. move_active_pages_to_lru, however, counts pages which
got freed in the mean time as deactivated as well. This is a very rare
event and counting them as deactivation in itself is not harmful but it
makes the code more convoluted than necessary - we have to count both
all pages and those which are freed which is a bit confusing.
After this patch the PGDEACTIVATE should have a slightly more clear
semantic and only count those pages which are moved from the active to
the inactive list which is a plus.

There is no thp defrag option that currently allows MADV_HUGEPAGE
regions to do direct compaction and reclaim while all other thp
allocations simply trigger kswapd and kcompactd in the background and
fail immediately.
The "defer" setting simply triggers background reclaim and compaction
for all regions, regardless of MADV_HUGEPAGE, which makes it unusable
for our userspace where MADV_HUGEPAGE is being used to indicate the
application is willing to wait for work for thp memory to be available.
The "madvise" setting will do direct compaction and reclaim for these
MADV_HUGEPAGE regions, but does not trigger kswapd and kcompactd in the
background for anybody else.
For reasonable usage, there needs to be a mesh between the two options.
This patch introduces a fifth mode, "defer+madvise", that will do direct
reclaim and compaction for MADV_HUGEPAGE regions and trigger background
reclaim and compaction for everybody else so that hugepages may be
available in the near future.
A proposal to allow direct reclaim and compaction for MADV_HUGEPAGE
regions as part of the "defer" mode, making it a very powerful setting
and avoids breaking userspace, was offered:
http://marc.info/?t=148236612700003
This additional mode is a compromise.
A second proposal to allow both "defer" and "madvise" to be selected at
the same time was also offered:
http://marc.info/?t=148357345300001.
This is possible, but there was a concern that it might break existing
userspaces the parse the output of the defrag mode, so the fifth option
was introduced instead.
This patch also cleans up the helper function for storing to "enabled"
and "defrag" since the former supports three modes while the latter
supports five and triple_flag_store() was getting unnecessarily messy.

other slots in a cluster. We do not reuse the slots that are returned
right away, as it may increase fragmentation of the slots.
The swap allocation cache is protected by a mutex as we may sleep when
searching for empty slots in cache. The swap free cache is protected by
a spin lock as we cannot sleep in the free path.
We refill the swap slots cache when we run out of slots, and we disable
the swap slots cache and drain the slots if the global number of slots
fall below a low watermark threshold. We re-enable the cache agian when
the slots available are above a high watermark.

Currently, the swap slots are allocated one page at a time, causing
contention to the swap_info lock protecting the swap partition on every
page being swapped.
This patch adds new functions get_swap_pages and scan_swap_map_slots to
request multiple swap slots at once. This will reduces the lock
contention on the swap_info lock. Also scan_swap_map_slots can operate
more efficiently as swap slots often occurs in clusters close to each
other on a swap device and it is quicker to allocate them together.

The patch is to improve the scalability of the swap out/in via using
fine grained locks for the swap cache. In current kernel, one address
space will be used for each swap device. And in the common
configuration, the number of the swap device is very small (one is
typical). This causes the heavy lock contention on the radix tree of
the address space if multiple tasks swap out/in concurrently.
But in fact, there is no dependency between pages in the swap cache. So
that, we can split the one shared address space for each swap device
into several address spaces to reduce the lock contention. In the
patch, the shared address space is split into 64MB trunks. 64MB is
chosen to balance the memory space usage and effect of lock contention
reduction.
The size of struct address_space on x86_64 architecture is 408B, so with
the patch, 6528B more memory will be used for every 1GB swap space on
x86_64 architecture.
One address space is still shared for the swap entries in the same 64M
trunks. To avoid lock contention for the first round of swap space
allocation, the order of the swap clusters in the initial free clusters
list is changed. The swap space distance between the consecutive swap
clusters in the free cluster list is at least 64M. After the first
round of allocation, the swap clusters are expected to be freed
randomly, so the lock contention should be reduced effectively.

This patch is to reduce the lock contention of swap_info_struct->lock
via using a more fine grained lock in swap_cluster_info for some swap
operations. swap_info_struct->lock is heavily contended if multiple
processes reclaim pages simultaneously. Because there is only one lock
for each swap device. While in common configuration, there is only one
or several swap devices in the system. The lock protects almost all
swap related operations.
In fact, many swap operations only access one element of
swap_info_struct->swap_map array. And there is no dependency between
different elements of swap_info_struct->swap_map. So a fine grained
lock can be used to allow parallel access to the different elements of
swap_info_struct->swap_map.
In this patch, a spinlock is added to swap_cluster_info to protect the
elements of swap_info_struct->swap_map in the swap cluster and the
fields of swap_cluster_info. This reduced locking contention for
swap_info_struct->swap_map access greatly.
Because of the added spinlock, the size of swap_cluster_info increases
from 4 bytes to 8 bytes on the 64 bit and 32 bit system. This will use
additional 4k RAM for every 1G swap space.
Because the size of swap_cluster_info is much smaller than the size of
the cache line (8 vs 64 on x86_64 architecture), there may be false
cache line sharing between spinlocks in swap_cluster_info. To avoid the
false sharing in the first round of the swap cluster allocation, the
order of the swap clusters in the free clusters list is changed. So
that, the swap_cluster_info sharing the same cache line will be placed
as far as possible. After the first round of allocation, the order of
the clusters in free clusters list is expected to be random. So the
false sharing should be not serious.
Compared with a previous implementation using bit_spin_lock, the
sequential swap out throughput improved about 3.2%. Test was done on a
Xeon E5 v3 system. The swap device used is a RAM simulated PMEM
(persistent memory) device. To test the sequential swapping out, the
test case created 32 processes, which sequentially allocate and write to
the anonymous pages until the RAM and part of the swap device is used.

Patch series "mm/swap: Regular page swap optimizations", v5.
Times have changed. Coming generation of Solid state Block device
latencies are getting down to sub 100 usec, which is within an order of
magnitude of DRAM, and their performance is orders of magnitude higher
than the single- spindle rotational media we've swapped to historically.
This could benefit many usage scenearios. For example cloud providers
who overcommit their memory (as VM don't use all the memory
provisioned). Having a fast swap will allow them to be more aggressive
in memory overcommit and fit more VMs to a platform.
In our testing [see footnote], the median latency that the kernel adds
to a page fault is 15 usec, which comes quite close to the amount that
will be contributed by the underlying I/O devices.
The software latency comes mostly from contentions on the locks
protecting the radix tree of the swap cache and also the locks
protecting the individual swap devices. The lock contentions already
consumed 35% of cpu cycles in our test. In the very near future,
software latency will become the bottleneck to swap performnace as block
device I/O latency gets within the shouting distance of DRAM speed.
This patch set, reduced the median page fault latency from 15 usec to 4
usec (375% reduction) for DRAM based pmem block device.
This patch (of 9):
swap_info_get() is used not only in swap free code path but also in
page_swapcount(), etc. So the original kernel message in swap_info_get()
is not correct now. Fix it via replacing "swap_free" to "swap_info_get"
in the message.

On 32-bit powerpc the ELF PLT sections of binaries (built with
--bss-plt, or with a toolchain which defaults to it) look like this:
[17] .sbss NOBITS 0002aff8 01aff8 000014 00 WA 0 0 4
[18] .plt NOBITS 0002b00c 01aff8 000084 00 WAX 0 0 4
[19] .bss NOBITS 0002b090 01aff8 0000a4 00 WA 0 0 4
Which results in an ELF load header:
Type Offset VirtAddr PhysAddr FileSiz MemSiz Flg Align
LOAD 0x019c70 0x00029c70 0x00029c70 0x01388 0x014c4 RWE 0x10000
This is all correct, the load region containing the PLT is marked as
executable. Note that the PLT starts at 0002b00c but the file mapping
ends at 0002aff8, so the PLT falls in the 0 fill section described by
the load header, and after a page boundary.
Unfortunately the generic ELF loader ignores the X bit in the load
headers when it creates the 0 filled non-file backed mappings. It
assumes all of these mappings are RW BSS sections, which is not the case
for PPC.
gcc/ld has an option (--secure-plt) to not do this, this is said to
incur a small performance penalty.
Currently, to support 32-bit binaries with PLT in BSS kernel maps
*entire brk area* with executable rights for all binaries, even
--secure-plt ones.
Stop doing that.
Teach the ELF loader to check the X bit in the relevant load header and
create 0 filled anonymous mappings that are executable if the load
header requests that.
Test program showing the difference in /proc/$PID/maps:
int main() {
char buf[16*1024];
char *p = malloc(123); /* make "[heap]" mapping appear */
int fd = open("/proc/self/maps", O_RDONLY);
int len = read(fd, buf, sizeof(buf));
write(1, buf, len);
printf("%p\n", p);
return 0;

To identify that pages of page table are allocated from bootmem
allocator, magic number sets to page->lru.next.
But page->lru list is initialized in reserve_bootmem_region(). So when
calling free_pagetable(), the function cannot find the magic number of
pages. And free_pagetable() frees the pages by free_reserved_page() not
put_page_bootmem().
But if the pages are allocated from bootmem allocator and used as page
table, the pages have private flag. So before freeing the pages, we
should clear the private flag by put_page_bootmem().
Before applying the commit 7bfec6f47b ("mm, page_alloc: check multiple
page fields with a single branch"), we could find the following visible
issue:

And the issue still silently occurs.
Until freeing the pages of page table allocated from bootmem allocator,
the page->freelist is never used. So the patch sets magic number to
page->freelist instead of page->lru.next.

free_map_bootmem() uses page->private directly to set
removing_section_nr argument. But to get page->private value,
page_private() has been prepared.
So free_map_bootmem() should use page_private() instead of
page->private.

memblock_reserve() would add a new range to memblock.reserved in case
the new range is not totally covered by any of the current
memblock.reserved range. If the memblock.reserved is full and can't
resize, memblock_reserve() would fail.
This doesn't happen in real world now, I observed this during code
review. While theoretically, it has the chance to happen. And if it
happens, others would think this range of memory is still available and
may corrupt the memory.
This patch checks the return value and goto "done" after it succeeds.

memblock_is_region_memory() invoke memblock_search() to see whether the
base address is in the memory region. If it fails, idx would be -1.
Then, it returns 0.
If the memblock_search() returns a valid index, it means the base
address is guaranteed to be in the range memblock.memory.regions[idx].
Because of this, it is not necessary to check the base again.
This patch removes the check on "base".

Without a memory barrier, the following race can occur with a high-order
allocation:
wakeup_kcompactd(order == 1) kcompactd()
[L] waitqueue_active(kcompactd_wait)
[S] prepare_to_wait_event(kcompactd_wait)
[L] (kcompactd_max_order == 0)
[S] kcompactd_max_order = order; schedule()
Where the waitqueue_active() check is speculatively re-ordered to before
setting the actual condition (max_order), not seeing the threads that's
going to block; making us miss a wakeup. There are a couple of options
to fix this, including calling wq_has_sleepers() which adds a full
barrier, or unconditionally doing the wake_up_interruptible() and
serialize on the q->lock. However, to make use of the control
dependency, we just need to add L->L guarantees.
While this bug is theoretical, there have been other offenders of the
lockless waitqueue_active() in the past -- this is also documented in
the call itself.

When using a sparse memory model memmap_init_zone() when invoked with
the MEMMAP_EARLY context will skip over pages which aren't valid - ie.
which aren't in a populated region of the sparse memory map. However if
the memory map is extremely sparse then it can spend a long time
linearly checking each PFN in a large non-populated region of the memory
map & skipping it in turn.
When CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP is enabled, we have sufficient
information to quickly discover the next valid PFN given an invalid one
by searching through the list of memory regions & skipping forwards to
the first PFN covered by the memory region to the right of the
non-populated region. Implement this in order to speed up
memmap_init_zone() for systems with extremely sparse memory maps.
James said "I have tested this patch on a virtual model of a Samurai CPU
with a sparse memory map. The kernel boot time drops from 109 to
62 seconds. "

A "compact_daemon_wake" vmstat exists that represents the number of
times kcompactd has woken up. This doesn't represent how much work it
actually did, though.
It's useful to understand how much compaction work is being done by
kcompactd versus other methods such as direct compaction and explicitly
triggered per-node (or system) compaction.
This adds two new vmstats: "compact_daemon_migrate_scanned" and
"compact_daemon_free_scanned" to represent the number of pages kcompactd
has scanned as part of its migration scanner and freeing scanner,
respectively.
These values are still accounted for in the general
"compact_migrate_scanned" and "compact_free_scanned" for compatibility.
It could be argued that explicitly triggered compaction could also be
tracked separately, and that could be added if others find it useful.

Commit 682a3385e7 ("mm, page_alloc: inline the fast path of the
zonelist iterator") changed how next_zones_zonelist() is called, by
adding a static inline function to do the fast path. This function
adds:
if (likely(!nodes && zonelist_zone_idx(z) <= highest_zoneidx))
return z;
return __next_zones_zonelist(z, highest_zoneidx, nodes);
Where __next_zones_zonelist() is only called when nodes is not NULL or
zonelist_zone_idx(z) is less than highest_zoneidx.
The original next_zone_zonelist() was converted to __next_zones_zonelist()
but it still maintained:
if (likely(nodes == NULL))
Which is now actually a very unlikely, as it is only called with nodes
equal to NULL when zonelist_zone_idx(z) is greater than highest_zoneidx.
Before this commit, this if had this statistic:
correct incorrect % Function File Line
------- --------- - -------- ---- ----
837895 446078 34 next_zones_zonelist mmzone.c 63
After this commit, it has:
correct incorrect % Function File Line
------- --------- - -------- ---- ----
10 173840 99 __next_zones_zonelist mmzone.c 63
Thus, the if statement is now much more unlikely than it ever was as a
likely.

scanned and reclaimed pages. This doesn't give us an idea how the
reclaim went except for the overall effectiveness though. Export and
show other counters which will tell us why we couldn't reclaim some
pages.
- nr_dirty, nr_writeback, nr_congested and nr_immediate tells
us how many pages are blocked due to IO
- nr_activate tells us how many pages were moved to the active
list
- nr_ref_keep reports how many pages are kept on the LRU due
to references (mostly for the file pages which are about to
go for another round through the inactive list)
- nr_unmap_fail - how many pages failed to unmap
All these are rather low level so they might change in future but the
tracepoint is already implementation specific so no tools should be
depending on its stability.

Extract the existing 5 into struct reclaim_stat because this makes the

While we are at it, make all of them unsigned rather than unsigned long
as we do not really need full 64b for them (we never scan more than

mm_vmscan_lru_isolate shows the number of requested, scanned and taken
pages. This is mostly OK but on 32b systems the number of scanned pages
is quite misleading because it includes both the scanned and skipped
pages. Moreover the skipped part is scaled based on the number of taken
pages. Let's report the exact numbers without any additional logic and
add the number of skipped pages.
This should make the reported data much more easier to interpret.

Our reclaim process has several tracepoints to tell us more about how
things are progressing. We are, however, missing a tracepoint to track
active list aging. Introduce mm_vmscan_lru_shrink_active which reports
the number of
- nr_taken is number of isolated pages from the active list
- nr_referenced pages which tells us that we are hitting referenced
pages which are deactivated. If this is a large part of the
reported nr_deactivated pages then we might be hitting into
the active list too early because they might be still part of
the working set. This might help to debug performance issues.
- nr_active pages which tells us how many pages are kept on the
active list - mostly exec file backed pages. A high number can
indicate that we might be trashing on executables.

This also removes the special assumption that the mmap_sem is hold for

only for reading in change_pte_range like prot_numa, but it will not set

pattern of anon mappings and did not support any vmas marked VM_SHARED.
As such, support was only added for private mappings.
Remove this limitation and support shared mappings. The primary
functional change required is adding pages to the page cache. More subtle
changes are required for huge page reservation handling in error paths. A
lengthy comment in the code describes the reservation handling.

Currently userfault relies on vma_is_anonymous and vma_is_hugetlb to
ensure compatibility of a VMA with userfault. Introduction of
vma_is_shmem allows detection if tmpfs backed VMAs, so that they may be
used with userfaultfd. Current implementation presumes usage of
vma_is_shmem only by slow path routines in userfaultfd, therefore the

The new routine copy_huge_page_from_user() uses kmap_atomic() to map
PAGE_SIZE pages. However, this prevents page faults in the subsequent
call to copy_from_user(). This is OK in the case where the routine is
copied with mmap_sema held. However, in another case we want to allow
page faults. So, add a new argument allow_pagefault to indicate if the
routine should allow page faults.

Higher order requests oom debugging is currently quite hard. We do have
some compaction points which can tell us how the compaction is operating
but there is no trace point to tell us about compaction retry logic.
This patch adds a one which will have the following format
bash-3126 [001] .... 1498.220001: compact_retry: order=9 priority=COMPACT_PRIO_SYNC_LIGHT compaction_result=withdrawn retries=0 max_retries=16 should_retry=0
we can see that the order 9 request is not retried even though we are in
the highest compaction priority mode becase the last compaction attempt
was withdrawn. This means that compaction_zonelist_suitable must have
returned false and there is no suitable zone to compact for this request
and so no need to retry further.
another example would be
<...>-3137 [001] .... 81.501689: compact_retry: order=9 priority=COMPACT_PRIO_SYNC_LIGHT compaction_result=failed retries=0 max_retries=16 should_retry=0
in this case the order-9 compaction failed to find any suitable block.
We do not retry anymore because this is a costly request and those do
not go below COMPACT_PRIO_SYNC_LIGHT priority.

should_reclaim_retry is the central decision point for declaring the
OOM. It might be really useful to expose data used for this decision
making when debugging an unexpected oom situations.
Say we have an OOM report:
[ 52.264001] mem_eater invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x24280ca(GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE|__GFP_ZERO), nodemask=0, order=0, oom_score_adj=0

Now we can check the tracepoint data to see how we have ended up in this
situation:
mem_eater-3148 [003] .... 52.432801: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=DMA32 order=0 reclaimable=51 available=11134 min_wmark=11084 no_progress_loops=1 wmark_check=1

mem_eater-3148 [003] .... 52.434414: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=DMA32 order=0 reclaimable=51 available=11094 min_wmark=11084 no_progress_loops=4 wmark_check=1
mem_eater-3148 [003] .... 52.434761: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=DMA32 order=0 reclaimable=51 available=11091 min_wmark=11084 no_progress_loops=5 wmark_check=1
mem_eater-3148 [003] .... 52.435108: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=DMA32 order=0 reclaimable=51 available=11087 min_wmark=11084 no_progress_loops=6 wmark_check=1
mem_eater-3148 [003] .... 52.435478: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=DMA32 order=0 reclaimable=51 available=11084 min_wmark=11084 no_progress_loops=7 wmark_check=0
mem_eater-3148 [003] .... 52.435478: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=DMA order=0 reclaimable=0 available=1126 min_wmark=179 no_progress_loops=7 wmark_check=0
The above shows that we can quickly deduce that the reclaim stopped
making any progress (see no_progress_loops increased in each round) and
while there were still some 51 reclaimable pages they couldn't be
dropped for some reason (vmscan trace points would tell us more about
that part). available will represent reclaimable + free_pages scaled
down per no_progress_loops factor. This is essentially an optimistic
estimate of how much memory we would have when reclaiming everything.
This can be compared to min_wmark to get a rought idea but the
wmark_check tells the result of the watermark check which is more
precise (includes lowmem reserves, considers the order etc.). As we can
see no zone is eligible in the end and that is why we have triggered the
oom in this situation.
Please note that higher order requests might fail on the wmark_check
even when there is much more memory available than min_wmark - e.g.
when the memory is fragmented. A follow up tracepoint will help to
debug those situations.

In __free_one_page() we do the buddy merging arithmetics on "page/buddy
index", which is just the lower MAX_ORDER bits of pfn. The operations
we do that affect the higher bits are bitwise AND and subtraction (in
that order), where the final result will be the same with the higher
bits left unmasked, as long as these bits are equal for both buddies -
which must be true by the definition of a buddy.
We can therefore use pfn's directly instead of "index" and skip the
zeroing of >MAX_ORDER bits. This can help a bit by itself, although
compiler might be smart enough already. It also helps the next patch to
avoid page_to_pfn() for memory hole checks.

Tetsuo has been stressing OOM killer path with many parallel allocation
requests when he has noticed that it is not all that hard to swamp
kernel logs with warn_alloc messages caused by allocation stalls. Even
though the allocation stall message is triggered only once in 10s there
might be many different tasks hitting it roughly around the same time.
A big part of the output is show_mem() which can generate a lot of
output even on a small machines. There is no reason to show the state
of memory counter for each allocation stall, especially when multiple of
them are reported in a short time period. Chances are that not much has
changed since the last report. This patch simply rate limits show_mem
called from warn_alloc to only dump something once per second. This
should be enough to give us a clue why an allocation might be stalling
while burst of warnings will not swamp log with too much data.
While we are at it, extract all the show_mem related handling (filters)
into a separate function warn_alloc_show_mem. This will make the code
cleaner and as a bonus point we can distinguish which part of warn_alloc
got throttled due to rate limiting as ___ratelimit dumps the caller.

Callers of shmem_mapping() are interested in whether the mapping is swap
backed - except for uprobes, which is interested in whether it should
use shmem_read_mapping_page(). All these callers are better served by a
shmem_mapping() which checks for shmem_aops, than the current version
which goes through several indirections to find where the inode lives -
and has the surprising effect that a private mmap of /dev/zero satisfies
both vma_is_anonymous() and shmem_mapping(), when that device node is on
devtmpfs. I don't think anything in the tree suffers from that
surprise, but it caught me out, and is better fixed.

SLUB creates a per-cache directory under /sys/kernel/slab which hosts a
bunch of debug files. Usually, there aren't that many caches on a
system and this doesn't really matter; however, if memcg is in use, each
cache can have per-cgroup sub-caches. SLUB creates the same directories
for these sub-caches under /sys/kernel/slab/$CACHE/cgroup.
Unfortunately, because there can be a lot of cgroups, active or
draining, the product of the numbers of caches, cgroups and files in
each directory can reach a very high number - hundreds of thousands is
commonplace. Millions and beyond aren't difficult to reach either.
What's under /sys/kernel/slab is primarily for debugging and the
information and control on the a root cache already cover its
sub-caches. While having a separate directory for each sub-cache can be
helpful for development, it doesn't make much sense to pay this amount
of overhead by default.
This patch introduces a boot parameter slub_memcg_sysfs which determines
whether to create sysfs directories for per-memcg sub-caches. It also
adds CONFIG_SLUB_MEMCG_SYSFS_ON which determines the boot parameter's
default value and defaults to 0.

If there's contention on slab_mutex, queueing the per-cache destruction

at it, convert the workqueue from an unbound workqueue to a per-cpu one

workqueues and concurrency limit of 1 is safe enough.
This is suggested by Joonsoo Kim.

slub uses synchronize_sched() to deactivate a memcg cache.
synchronize_sched() is an expensive and slow operation and doesn't scale
when a huge number of caches are destroyed back-to-back. While there
used to be a simple batching mechanism, the batching was too restricted
to be helpful.
This patch implements slab_deactivate_memcg_cache_rcu_sched() which slub
can use to schedule sched RCU callback instead of performing
synchronize_sched() synchronously while holding cgroup_mutex. While
this adds online cpus, mems and slab_mutex operations, operating on
these locks back-to-back from the same kworker, which is what's gonna
happen when there are many to deactivate, isn't expensive at all and
this gets rid of the scalability problem completely.

__kmem_cache_shrink() is called with %true @deactivate only for memcg
caches. Remove @deactivate from __kmem_cache_shrink() and introduce
__kmemcg_cache_deactivate() instead. Each memcg-supporting allocator
should implement it and it should deactivate and drain the cache.
This is to allow memcg cache deactivation behavior to further deviate
from simple shrinking without messing up __kmem_cache_shrink().
This is pure reorganization and doesn't introduce any observable
behavior changes.

slab_caches currently lists all caches including root and memcg ones.
This is the only data structure which lists the root caches and
iterating root caches can only be done by walking the list while
skipping over memcg caches. As there can be a huge number of memcg
caches, this can become very expensive.
This also can make /proc/slabinfo behave very badly. seq_file processes
reads in 4k chunks and seeks to the previous Nth position on slab_caches
list to resume after each chunk. With a lot of memcg cache churns on
the list, reading /proc/slabinfo can become very slow and its content
often ends up with duplicate and/or missing entries.
This patch adds a new list slab_root_caches which lists only the root
caches. When memcg is not enabled, it becomes just an alias of
slab_caches. memcg specific list operations are collected into
memcg_[un]link_cache().

While a memcg kmem_cache is listed on its root cache's ->children list,
there is no direct way to iterate all kmem_caches which are assocaited
with a memory cgroup. The only way to iterate them is walking all
caches while filtering out caches which don't match, which would be most
of them.
This makes memcg destruction operations O(N^2) where N is the total
number of slab caches which can be huge. This combined with the
synchronous RCU operations can tie up a CPU and affect the whole machine
for many hours when memory reclaim triggers offlining and destruction of
the stale memcgs.
This patch adds mem_cgroup->kmem_caches list which goes through
memcg_cache_params->kmem_caches_node of all kmem_caches which are
associated with the memcg. All memcg specific iterations, including
stat file access, are updated to use the new list instead.

SLAB_DESTORY_BY_RCU caches need to flush all RCU operations before
destruction because slab pages are freed through RCU and they need to be
able to dereference the associated kmem_cache. Currently, it's done
synchronously with rcu_barrier(). As rcu_barrier() is expensive
time-wise, slab implements a batching mechanism so that rcu_barrier()
can be done for multiple caches at the same time.
Unfortunately, the rcu_barrier() is in synchronous path which is called
while holding cgroup_mutex and the batching is too limited to be
actually helpful.
This patch updates the cache release path so that the batching is
asynchronous and global. All SLAB_DESTORY_BY_RCU caches are queued
globally and a work item consumes the list. The work item calls
rcu_barrier() only once for all caches that are currently queued.
* release_caches() is removed and shutdown_cache() now either directly
release the cache or schedules a RCU callback to do that. This
makes the cache inaccessible once shutdown_cache() is called and
makes it impossible for shutdown_memcg_caches() to do memcg-specific
cleanups afterwards. Move memcg-specific part into a helper,
unlink_memcg_cache(), and make shutdown_cache() call it directly.

Patch series "slab: make memcg slab destruction scalable", v3.
With kmem cgroup support enabled, kmem_caches can be created and
destroyed frequently and a great number of near empty kmem_caches can
accumulate if there are a lot of transient cgroups and the system is not
under memory pressure. When memory reclaim starts under such
conditions, it can lead to consecutive deactivation and destruction of
many kmem_caches, easily hundreds of thousands on moderately large
systems, exposing scalability issues in the current slab management
code.
I've seen machines which end up with hundred thousands of caches and
many millions of kernfs_nodes. The current code is O(N^2) on the total
number of caches and has synchronous rcu_barrier() and
synchronize_sched() in cgroup offline / release path which is executed
while holding cgroup_mutex. Combined, this leads to very expensive and
slow cache destruction operations which can easily keep running for half
a day.
This also messes up /proc/slabinfo along with other cache iterating
operations. seq_file operates on 4k chunks and on each 4k boundary
tries to seek to the last position in the list. With a huge number of
caches on the list, this becomes very slow and very prone to the list
content changing underneath it leading to a lot of missing and/or
duplicate entries.
This patchset addresses the scalability problem.
* Add root and per-memcg lists. Update each user to use the
appropriate list.
* Make rcu_barrier() for SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU caches globally batched
and asynchronous.
* For dying empty slub caches, remove the sysfs files after
deactivation so that we don't end up with millions of sysfs files
without any useful information on them.
This patchset contains the following nine patches.
0001-Revert-slub-move-synchronize_sched-out-of-slab_mutex.patch
0002-slub-separate-out-sysfs_slab_release-from-sysfs_slab.patch
0003-slab-remove-synchronous-rcu_barrier-call-in-memcg-ca.patch
0004-slab-reorganize-memcg_cache_params.patch
0005-slab-link-memcg-kmem_caches-on-their-associated-memo.patch
0006-slab-implement-slab_root_caches-list.patch
0007-slab-introduce-__kmemcg_cache_deactivate.patch
0008-slab-remove-synchronous-synchronize_sched-from-memcg.patch
0009-slab-remove-slub-sysfs-interface-files-early-for-emp.patch
0010-slab-use-memcg_kmem_cache_wq-for-slab-destruction-op.patch
0001 reverts an existing optimization to prepare for the following
changes. 0002 is a prep patch. 0003 makes rcu_barrier() in release
path batched and asynchronous. 0004-0006 separate out the lists.
0007-0008 replace synchronize_sched() in slub destruction path with
call_rcu_sched(). 0009 removes sysfs files early for empty dying
caches. 0010 makes destruction work items use a workqueue with limited
concurrency.
This patch (of 10):
Revert 89e364db71 ("slub: move synchronize_sched out of slab_mutex on
shrink").
With kmem cgroup support enabled, kmem_caches can be created and destroyed
frequently and a great number of near empty kmem_caches can accumulate if
there are a lot of transient cgroups and the system is not under memory
pressure. When memory reclaim starts under such conditions, it can lead
to consecutive deactivation and destruction of many kmem_caches, easily
hundreds of thousands on moderately large systems, exposing scalability
issues in the current slab management code. This is one of the patches to
address the issue.
Moving synchronize_sched() out of slab_mutex isn't enough as it's still
inside cgroup_mutex. The whole deactivation / release path will be
updated to avoid all synchronous RCU operations. Revert this insufficient
optimization in preparation to ease future changes.

When !CONFIG_CGROUP_WRITEBACK, bdi has single bdi_writeback_congested
at bdi->wb_congested. cgwb_bdi_init() allocates it with kzalloc() and
doesn't do further initialization. This usually works fine as the
reference count gets bumped to 1 by wb_init() and the put from
wb_exit() releases it.
However, when wb_init() fails, it puts the wb base ref automatically
freeing the wb and the explicit kfree() in cgwb_bdi_init() error path
ends up trying to free the same pointer the second time causing a
double-free.
Fix it by explicitly initilizing the refcnt to 1 and putting the base

Reading a sysfs "memoryN/valid_zones" file leads to the following oops
when the first page of a range is not backed by struct page.
show_valid_zones() assumes that 'start_pfn' is always valid for
page_zone().
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffea017a000000
IP: show_valid_zones+0x6f/0x160
This issue may happen on x86-64 systems with 64GiB or more memory since
their memory block size is bumped up to 2GiB. [1] An example of such
systems is desribed below. 0x3240000000 is only aligned by 1GiB and
this memory block starts from 0x3200000000, which is not backed by
struct page.
BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000003240000000-0x000000603fffffff] usable
Since test_pages_in_a_zone() already checks holes, fix this issue by
extending this function to return 'valid_start' and 'valid_end' for a
given range. show_valid_zones() then proceeds with the valid range.

Patch series "fix a kernel oops when reading sysfs valid_zones", v2.
A sysfs memory file is created for each 2GiB memory block on x86-64 when
the system has 64GiB or more memory. [1] When the start address of a
memory block is not backed by struct page, i.e. a memory range is not
aligned by 2GiB, reading its 'valid_zones' attribute file leads to a
kernel oops. This issue was observed on multiple x86-64 systems with
more than 64GiB of memory. This patch-set fixes this issue.
Patch 1 first fixes an issue in test_pages_in_a_zone(), which does not
test the start section.
Patch 2 then fixes the kernel oops by extending test_pages_in_a_zone()
to return valid [start, end).
Note for stable kernels: The memory block size change was made by commit
bdee237c03 ("x86: mm: Use 2GB memory block size on large-memory x86-64
systems"), which was accepted to 3.9. However, this patch-set depends
on (and fixes) the change to test_pages_in_a_zone() made by commit
5f0f2887f4 ("mm/memory_hotplug.c: check for missing sections in
test_pages_in_a_zone()"), which was accepted to 4.4.
So, I recommend that we backport it up to 4.4.
[1] 'Commit bdee237c03 ("x86: mm: Use 2GB memory block size on
large-memory x86-64 systems")'
This patch (of 2):
test_pages_in_a_zone() does not check 'start_pfn' when it is aligned by
section since 'sec_end_pfn' is set equal to 'pfn'. Since this function
is called for testing the range of a sysfs memory file, 'start_pfn' is
always aligned by section.
Fix it by properly setting 'sec_end_pfn' to the next section pfn.
Also make sure that this function returns 1 only when the range belongs
to a zone.

Add zswap_init_failed bool that prevents changing any of the module
params, if init_zswap() fails, and set zswap_enabled to false. Change
'enabled' param to a callback, and check zswap_init_failed before
allowing any change to 'enabled', 'zpool', or 'compressor' params.
Any driver that is built-in to the kernel will not be unloaded if its
init function returns error, and its module params remain accessible for
users to change via sysfs. Since zswap uses param callbacks, which
assume that zswap has been initialized, changing the zswap params after
a failed initialization will result in WARNING due to the param
callbacks expecting a pool to already exist. This prevents that by
immediately exiting any of the param callbacks if initialization failed.
This was reported here:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=147004228125528&w=4
And fixes this WARNING:
[ 429.723476] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 5140 at mm/zswap.c:503 __zswap_pool_current+0x56/0x60
The warning is just noise, and not serious. However, when init fails,
zswap frees all its percpu dstmem pages and its kmem cache. The kmem
cache might be serious, if kmem_cache_alloc(NULL, gfp) has problems; but
the percpu dstmem pages are definitely a problem, as they're used as
temporary buffer for compressed pages before copying into place in the
zpool.
If the user does get zswap enabled after an init failure, then zswap
will likely Oops on the first page it tries to compress (or worse, start
corrupting memory).

Ganapatrao Kulkarni reported that the LTP test cpuset01 in stress mode
triggers OOM killer in few seconds, despite lots of free memory. The
test attempts to repeatedly fault in memory in one process in a cpuset,
while changing allowed nodes of the cpuset between 0 and 1 in another
process.
The problem comes from insufficient protection against cpuset changes,
which can cause get_page_from_freelist() to consider all zones as
non-eligible due to nodemask and/or current->mems_allowed. This was
masked in the past by sufficient retries, but since commit 682a3385e7
("mm, page_alloc: inline the fast path of the zonelist iterator") we fix
the preferred_zoneref once, and don't iterate over the whole zonelist in
further attempts, thus the only eligible zones might be placed in the
zonelist before our starting point and we always miss them.
A previous patch fixed this problem for current->mems_allowed. However,
cpuset changes also update the task's mempolicy nodemask. The fix has
two parts. We have to repeat the preferred_zoneref search when we
detect cpuset update by way of seqcount, and we have to check the
seqcount before considering OOM.

Ganapatrao Kulkarni reported that the LTP test cpuset01 in stress mode
triggers OOM killer in few seconds, despite lots of free memory. The
test attempts to repeatedly fault in memory in one process in a cpuset,
while changing allowed nodes of the cpuset between 0 and 1 in another
process.
One possible cause is that in the fast path we find the preferred
zoneref according to current mems_allowed, so that it points to the
middle of the zonelist, skipping e.g. zones of node 1 completely. If
the mems_allowed is updated to contain only node 1, we never reach it in
the zonelist, and trigger OOM before checking the cpuset_mems_cookie.
This patch fixes the particular case by redoing the preferred zoneref
search if we switch back to the original nodemask. The condition is
also slightly changed so that when the last non-root cpuset is removed,
we don't miss it.
Note that this is not a full fix, and more patches will follow.

Patch series "fix premature OOM regression in 4.7+ due to cpuset races".
This is v2 of my attempt to fix the recent report based on LTP cpuset
stress test [1]. The intention is to go to stable 4.9 LTSS with this,
as triggering repeated OOMs is not nice. That's why the patches try to
be not too intrusive.
Unfortunately why investigating I found that modifying the testcase to
use per-VMA policies instead of per-task policies will bring the OOM's
back, but that seems to be much older and harder to fix problem. I have
posted a RFC [2] but I believe that fixing the recent regressions has a
higher priority.
Longer-term we might try to think how to fix the cpuset mess in a better
and less error prone way. I was for example very surprised to learn,
that cpuset updates change not only task->mems_allowed, but also
nodemask of mempolicies. Until now I expected the parameter to
alloc_pages_nodemask() to be stable. I wonder why do we then treat
cpusets specially in get_page_from_freelist() and distinguish HARDWALL
etc, when there's unconditional intersection between mempolicy and
cpuset. I would expect the nodemask adjustment for saving overhead in
g_p_f(), but that clearly doesn't happen in the current form. So we
have both crazy complexity and overhead, AFAICS.

This patch (of 4):
Since commit c33d6c06f6 ("mm, page_alloc: avoid looking up the first
zone in a zonelist twice") we have a wrong check for NULL preferred_zone,
which can theoretically happen due to concurrent cpuset modification. We
check the zoneref pointer which is never NULL and we should check the zone
pointer. Also document this in first_zones_zonelist() comment per Michal
Hocko.

Since commit be97a41b29 ("mm/mempolicy.c: merge alloc_hugepage_vma to
alloc_pages_vma") alloc_pages_vma() can potentially free a mempolicy by
mpol_cond_put() before accessing the embedded nodemask by
__alloc_pages_nodemask(). The commit log says it's so "we can use a
single exit path within the function" but that's clearly wrong. We can
still do that when doing mpol_cond_put() after the allocation attempt.
Make sure the mempolicy is not freed prematurely, otherwise
__alloc_pages_nodemask() can end up using a bogus nodemask, which could
lead e.g. to premature OOM.

Currently when trace is enabled (e.g. slub_debug=T,kmalloc-128 ) the
trace messages are mostly output at KERN_INFO. However the trace code
also calls print_section() to hexdump the head of a free object. This
is hard coded to use KERN_ERR, meaning the console is deluged with trace
messages even if we've asked for quiet.
Fix this the obvious way but adding a level parameter to
print_section(), allowing calls from the trace code to use the same
trace level as other trace messages.

In commit 19be0eaffa ("mm: remove gup_flags FOLL_WRITE games from
__get_user_pages()"), the mm code was changed from unsetting FOLL_WRITE
after a COW was resolved to setting the (newly introduced) FOLL_COW
instead. Simultaneously, the check in gup.c was updated to still allow
writes with FOLL_FORCE set if FOLL_COW had also been set.
However, a similar check in huge_memory.c was forgotten. As a result,
remote memory writes to ro regions of memory backed by transparent huge
pages cause an infinite loop in the kernel (handle_mm_fault sets
FOLL_COW and returns 0 causing a retry, but follow_trans_huge_pmd bails
out immidiately because `(flags & FOLL_WRITE) && !pmd_write(*pmd)` is
true.
While in this state the process is stil SIGKILLable, but little else
works (e.g. no ptrace attach, no other signals). This is easily
reproduced with the following code (assuming thp are set to always):
#include <assert.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#define TEST_SIZE 5 * 1024 * 1024
int main(void) {
int status;
pid_t child;
int fd = open("/proc/self/mem", O_RDWR);
void *addr = mmap(NULL, TEST_SIZE, PROT_READ,
MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_PRIVATE, 0, 0);
assert(addr != MAP_FAILED);
pid_t parent_pid = getpid();
if ((child = fork()) == 0) {
void *addr2 = mmap(NULL, TEST_SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_PRIVATE, 0, 0);
assert(addr2 != MAP_FAILED);
memset(addr2, 'a', TEST_SIZE);
pwrite(fd, addr2, TEST_SIZE, (uintptr_t)addr);
return 0;
}
assert(child == waitpid(child, &status, 0));
assert(WIFEXITED(status) && WEXITSTATUS(status) == 0);
return 0;
}
Fix this by updating follow_trans_huge_pmd in huge_memory.c analogously
to the update in gup.c in the original commit. The same pattern exists
in follow_devmap_pmd. However, we should not be able to reach that
check with FOLL_COW set, so add WARN_ONCE to make sure we notice if we
ever do.

online_{kernel|movable} is used to change the memory zone to
ZONE_{NORMAL|MOVABLE} and online the memory.
To check that memory zone can be changed, zone_can_shift() is used.
Currently the function returns minus integer value, plus integer
value and 0. When the function returns minus or plus integer value,
it means that the memory zone can be changed to ZONE_{NORNAL|MOVABLE}.
But when the function returns 0, there are two meanings.
One of the meanings is that the memory zone does not need to be changed.
For example, when memory is in ZONE_NORMAL and onlined by online_kernel
the memory zone does not need to be changed.
Another meaning is that the memory zone cannot be changed. When memory
is in ZONE_NORMAL and onlined by online_movable, the memory zone may
not be changed to ZONE_MOVALBE due to memory online limitation(see
Documentation/memory-hotplug.txt). In this case, memory must not be
onlined.
The patch changes the return type of zone_can_shift() so that memory
online operation fails when memory zone cannot be changed as follows:

6b101e2a3c ("mm/CMA: fix boot regression due to physical address of
high_memory") added checks to use __pa_nodebug on x86 since
CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL complains about high_memory not being linearlly
mapped. arm64 is now getting support for CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL as well.
Rather than add an explosion of arches to the #ifdef, switch to an
alternate method to calculate the physical start of highmem using
the page before highmem starts. This avoids the need for the #ifdef and
extra __pa_nodebug calls.

return_unused_surplus_pages() decrements the global reservation count,
and frees any unused surplus pages that were backing the reservation.
Commit 7848a4bf51 ("mm/hugetlb.c: add cond_resched_lock() in
return_unused_surplus_pages()") added a call to cond_resched_lock in the
loop freeing the pages.
As a result, the hugetlb_lock could be dropped, and someone else could
use the pages that will be freed in subsequent iterations of the loop.
This could result in inconsistent global hugetlb page state, application
api failures (such as mmap) failures or application crashes.
When dropping the lock in return_unused_surplus_pages, make sure that
the global reservation count (resv_huge_pages) remains sufficiently
large to prevent someone else from claiming pages about to be freed.

This patch fixes a bug in the freelist randomization code. When a high
random number is used, the freelist will contain duplicate entries. It
will result in different allocations sharing the same chunk.
It will result in odd behaviours and crashes. It should be uncommon but
it depends on the machines. We saw it happening more often on some
machines (every few hours of running tests).

With investigation, it reveals currently stable page doesn't support
anonymous page. IOW, reuse_swap_page can reuse the page without waiting
writeback completion so it can overwrite page zram is compressing.
Unfortunately, zram has used per-cpu stream feature from v4.7.
It aims for increasing cache hit ratio of scratch buffer for
compressing. Downside of that approach is that zram should ask
memory space for compressed page in per-cpu context which requires
stricted gfp flag which could be failed. If so, it retries to
allocate memory space out of per-cpu context so it could get memory
this time and compress the data again, copies it to the memory space.
In this scenario, zram assumes the data should never be changed
but it is not true unless stable page supports. So, If the data is
changed under us, zram can make buffer overrun because second
compression size could be bigger than one we got in previous trial
and blindly, copy bigger size object to smaller buffer which is
buffer overrun. The overrun breaks zsmalloc free object chaining
so system goes crash like above.
I think below is same problem.
https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=997574
Unfortunately, reuse_swap_page should be atomic so that we cannot wait on
writeback in there so the approach in this patch is simply return false if
we found it needs stable page. Although it increases memory footprint
temporarily, it happens rarely and it should be reclaimed easily althoug
it happened. Also, It would be better than waiting of IO completion,
which is critial path for application latency.

This patch does two things.
First it goes through and renames the __page_frag prefixed functions to
__page_frag_cache so that we can be clear that we are draining or
refilling the cache, not the frags themselves.
Second we drop the order parameter from __page_frag_cache_drain since we
don't actually need to pass it since all fragments are either order 0 or
must be a compound page.

Patch series "Page fragment updates", v4.
This patch series takes care of a few cleanups for the page fragments
API.
First we do some renames so that things are much more consistent. First
we move the page_frag_ portion of the name to the front of the functions
names. Secondly we split out the cache specific functions from the
other page fragment functions by adding the word "cache" to the name.
Finally I added a bit of documentation that will hopefully help to
explain some of this. I plan to revisit this later as we get things
more ironed out in the near future with the changes planned for the DMA
setup to support eXpress Data Path.
This patch (of 3):
This patch renames the page frag functions to be more consistent with
other APIs. Specifically we place the name page_frag first in the name
and then have either an alloc or free call name that we append as the
suffix. This makes it a bit clearer in terms of naming.
In addition we drop the leading double underscores since we are
technically no longer a backing interface and instead the front end that
is called from the networking APIs.

the oom killer is clearly pre-mature because there there is still a lot
of page cache in the zone Normal which should satisfy this lowmem
request. Further debugging has shown that the reclaim cannot make any
forward progress because the page cache is hidden in the active list
which doesn't get rotated because inactive_list_is_low is not memcg
aware.
The code simply subtracts per-zone highmem counters from the respective
memcg's lru sizes which doesn't make any sense. We can simply end up
always seeing the resulting active and inactive counts 0 and return
false. This issue is not limited to 32b kernels but in practice the
effect on systems without CONFIG_HIGHMEM would be much harder to notice
because we do not invoke the OOM killer for allocations requests
targeting < ZONE_NORMAL.
Fix the issue by tracking per zone lru page counts in mem_cgroup_per_node
and subtract per-memcg highmem counts when memcg is enabled. Introduce
helper lruvec_zone_lru_size which redirects to either zone counters or
mem_cgroup_get_zone_lru_size when appropriate.
We are losing empty LRU but non-zero lru size detection introduced by
ca707239e8 ("mm: update_lru_size warn and reset bad lru_size") because
of the inherent zone vs. node discrepancy.

The VM_BUG_ON() check in move_freepages() checks whether the node id of
a page matches the node id of its zone. However, it does this before
having checked whether the struct page pointer refers to a valid struct
page to begin with. This is guaranteed in most cases, but may not be
the case if CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE=y.
So reorder the VM_BUG_ON() with the pfn_valid_within() check.

Andreas reported [1] made a test in jemalloc hang in THP mode in arm64:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/mvmmvfy37g1.fsf@hawking.suse.de
The problem is currently page fault handler doesn't supports dirty bit
emulation of pmd for non-HW dirty-bit architecture so that application
stucks until VM marked the pmd dirty.
How the emulation work depends on the architecture. In case of arm64,
when it set up pte firstly, it sets pte PTE_RDONLY to get a chance to
mark the pte dirty via triggering page fault when store access happens.
Once the page fault occurs, VM marks the pmd dirty and arch code for
setting pmd will clear PTE_RDONLY for application to proceed.
IOW, if VM doesn't mark the pmd dirty, application hangs forever by
repeated fault(i.e., store op but the pmd is PTE_RDONLY).
This patch enables pmd dirty-bit emulation for those architectures.

Jia He has noticed that commit b9f00e147f ("mm, page_alloc: reduce
branches in zone_statistics") has an unintentional side effect that
remote node allocation requests are accounted as NUMA_MISS rathat than
NUMA_HIT and NUMA_OTHER if such a request doesn't use __GFP_OTHER_NODE.
There are many of these potentially because the flag is used very rarely
while we have many users of __alloc_pages_node.
Fix this by simply ignoring __GFP_OTHER_NODE (it can be removed in a
follow up patch) and treat all allocations that were satisfied from the
preferred zone's node as NUMA_HITS because this is the same node we
requested the allocation from in most cases. If this is not the local
node then we just account it as NUMA_OTHER rather than NUMA_LOCAL.
One downsize would be that an allocation request for a node which is
outside of the mempolicy nodemask would be reported as a hit which is a
bit weird but that was the case before b9f00e147f already.

Currently dax_mapping_entry_mkclean() fails to clean and write protect
the pmd_t of a DAX PMD entry during an *sync operation. This can result
in data loss in the following sequence:
1) mmap write to DAX PMD, dirtying PMD radix tree entry and making the
pmd_t dirty and writeable
2) fsync, flushing out PMD data and cleaning the radix tree entry. We
currently fail to mark the pmd_t as clean and write protected.
3) more mmap writes to the PMD. These don't cause any page faults since
the pmd_t is dirty and writeable. The radix tree entry remains clean.
4) fsync, which fails to flush the dirty PMD data because the radix tree
entry was clean.
5) crash - dirty data that should have been fsync'd as part of 4) could
still have been in the processor cache, and is lost.
Fix this by marking the pmd_t clean and write protected in
dax_mapping_entry_mkclean(), which is called as part of the fsync
operation 2). This will cause the writes in step 3) above to generate
page faults where we'll re-dirty the PMD radix tree entry, resulting in
flushes in the fsync that happens in step 4).

The crux of the problem is that once we insert a 4k zero page, all
locking from then on is done in terms of that 4k zero page and any
additional threads sleeping on the empty DAX entry will never be woken.
Fix this by waking all sleepers when we replace the DAX radix tree entry
with a 4k zero page. This will allow all sleeping threads to
successfully transition from locking based on the DAX empty entry to
locking on the 4k zero page.
With the test case reported by Xiong this happens very regularly in my
test setup, with some runs resulting in 9+ threads in this deadlocked
state. With this fix I've been able to run that same test dozens of
times in a loop without issue.

Several people report seeing warnings about inconsistent radix tree
nodes followed by crashes in the workingset code, which all looked like
use-after-free access from the shadow node shrinker.
Dave Jones managed to reproduce the issue with a debug patch applied,
which confirmed that the radix tree shrinking indeed frees shadow nodes
while they are still linked to the shadow LRU:
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 53 at lib/radix-tree.c:643 delete_node+0x1e4/0x200
CPU: 2 PID: 53 Comm: kswapd0 Not tainted 4.10.0-rc2-think+ #3

kswapd+0x392/0x8f0
This is the WARN_ON_ONCE(!list_empty(&node->private_list)) placed in the
inlined radix_tree_shrink().
The problem is with 14b468791f ("mm: workingset: move shadow entry
tracking to radix tree exceptional tracking"), which passes an update
callback into the radix tree to link and unlink shadow leaf nodes when
tree entries change, but forgot to pass the callback when reclaiming a
shadow node.
While the reclaimed shadow node itself is unlinked by the shrinker, its
deletion from the tree can cause the left-most leaf node in the tree to
be shrunk. If that happens to be a shadow node as well, we don't unlink
it from the LRU as we should.
Consider this tree, where the s are shadow entries:
root->rnode
|
[0 n]
| |
[s ] [sssss]
Now the shadow node shrinker reclaims the rightmost leaf node through
the shadow node LRU:
root->rnode
|
[0 ]
|
[s ]
Because the parent of the deleted node is the first level below the
root and has only one child in the left-most slot, the intermediate
level is shrunk and the node containing the single shadow is put in
its place:
root->rnode
|
[s ]
The shrinker again sees a single left-most slot in a first level node
and thus decides to store the shadow in root->rnode directly and free
the node - which is a leaf node on the shadow node LRU.
root->rnode
|
s
Without the update callback, the freed node remains on the shadow LRU,
where it causes later shrinker runs to crash.
Pass the node updater callback into __radix_tree_delete_node() in case
the deletion causes the left-most branch in the tree to collapse too.
Also add warnings when linked nodes are freed right away, rather than
wait for the use-after-free when the list is scanned much later.

4.10-rc loadtest (even on x86, and even without THPCache) fails with
"fork: Cannot allocate memory" or some such; and /proc/meminfo shows
PageTables growing.
Commit 953c66c2b2 ("mm: THP page cache support for ppc64") that got
merged in rc1 removed the freeing of an unused preallocated pagetable
after do_fault_around() has called map_pages().
This is usually a good optimization, so that the followup doesn't have
to reallocate one; but it's not sufficient to shift the freeing into
alloc_set_pte(), since there are failure cases (most commonly
VM_FAULT_RETRY) which never reach finish_fault().
Check and free it at the outer level in do_fault(), then we don't need
to worry in alloc_set_pte(), and can restore that to how it was (I
cannot find any reason to pte_free() under lock as it was doing).
And fix a separate pagetable leak, or crash, introduced by the same
change, that could only show up on some ppc64: why does do_set_pmd()'s
failure case attempt to withdraw a pagetable when it never deposited
one, at the same time overwriting (so leaking) the vmf->prealloc_pte?
Residue of an earlier implementation, perhaps? Delete it.

In commit 6290602709 ("mm: add PageWaiters indicating tasks are
waiting for a page bit") Nick Piggin made our page locking no longer
unconditionally touch the hashed page waitqueue, which not only helps
performance in general, but is particularly helpful on NUMA machines
where the hashed wait queues can bounce around a lot.
However, the "clear lock bit atomically and then test the waiters bit"
sequence turns out to be much more expensive than it needs to be,
because you get a nasty stall when trying to access the same word that
just got updated atomically.
On architectures where locking is done with LL/SC, this would be trivial
to fix with a new primitive that clears one bit and tests another
atomically, but that ends up not working on x86, where the only atomic
operations that return the result end up being cmpxchg and xadd. The
atomic bit operations return the old value of the same bit we changed,
not the value of an unrelated bit.
On x86, we could put the lock bit in the high bit of the byte, and use
"xadd" with that bit (where the overflow ends up not touching other
bits), and look at the other bits of the result. However, an even
simpler model is to just use a regular atomic "and" to clear the lock
bit, and then the sign bit in eflags will indicate the resulting state
of the unrelated bit #7.
So by moving the PageWaiters bit up to bit #7, we can atomically clear
the lock bit and test the waiters bit on x86 too. And architectures
with LL/SC (which is all the usual RISC suspects), the particular bit
doesn't matter, so they are fine with this approach too.
This avoids the extra access to the same atomic word, and thus avoids
the costly stall at page unlock time.
The only downside is that the interface ends up being a bit odd and
specialized: clear a bit in a byte, and test the sign bit. Nick doesn't
love the resulting name of the new primitive, but I'd rather make the
name be descriptive and very clear about the limitation imposed by
trying to work across all relevant architectures than make it be some
generic thing that doesn't make the odd semantics explicit.
So this introduces the new architecture primitive
clear_bit_unlock_is_negative_byte();
and adds the trivial implementation for x86. We have a generic
non-optimized fallback (that just does a "clear_bit()"+"test_bit(7)"
combination) which can be overridden by any architecture that can do
better. According to Nick, Power has the same hickup x86 has, for
example, but some other architectures may not even care.
All these optimizations mean that my page locking stress-test (which is
just executing a lot of small short-lived shell scripts: "make test" in
the git source tree) no longer makes our page locking look horribly bad.
Before all these optimizations, just the unlock_page() costs were just
over 3% of all CPU overhead on "make test". After this, it's down to
0.66%, so just a quarter of the cost it used to be.
(The difference on NUMA is bigger, but there this micro-optimization is
likely less noticeable, since the big issue on NUMA was not the accesses
to 'struct page', but the waitqueue accesses that were already removed
by Nick's earlier commit).

Currently invalidate_inode_pages2_range() and invalidate_mapping_pages()
just delete all exceptional radix tree entries they find. For DAX this
is not desirable as we track cache dirtiness in these entries and when
they are evicted, we may not flush caches although it is necessary. This
can for example manifest when we write to the same block both via mmap
and via write(2) (to different offsets) and fsync(2) then does not
properly flush CPU caches when modification via write(2) was the last
one.
Create appropriate DAX functions to handle invalidation of DAX entries
for invalidate_inode_pages2_range() and invalidate_mapping_pages() and
wire them up into the corresponding mm functions.

Add a new page flag, PageWaiters, to indicate the page waitqueue has
tasks waiting. This can be tested rather than testing waitqueue_active
which requires another cacheline load.
This bit is always set when the page has tasks on page_waitqueue(page),
and is set and cleared under the waitqueue lock. It may be set when
there are no tasks on the waitqueue, which will cause a harmless extra
wakeup check that will clears the bit.
The generic bit-waitqueue infrastructure is no longer used for pages.
Instead, waitqueues are used directly with a custom key type. The
generic code was not flexible enough to have PageWaiters manipulation
under the waitqueue lock (which simplifies concurrency).
This improves the performance of page lock intensive microbenchmarks by
2-3%.
Putting two bits in the same word opens the opportunity to remove the
memory barrier between clearing the lock bit and testing the waiters
bit, after some work on the arch primitives (e.g., ensuring memory
operand widths match and cover both bits).

When FADV_DONTNEED cannot drop all pages in the range, it observes that
some pages might still be on per-cpu LRU caches after recent
instantiation and so initiates remote calls to all CPUs to flush their
local caches. However, in most cases, the fadvise happens from the same
context that instantiated the pages, and any pre-LRU pages in the
specified range are most likely sitting on the local CPU's LRU cache,
and so in many cases this results in unnecessary remote calls, which, in
a loaded system, can hold up the fadvise() call significantly.
[ I didn't record it in the extreme case we observed at Facebook,
unfortunately. We had a slow-to-respond system and noticed it
lru_add_drain_all() leading the profile during fadvise calls. This
patch came out of thinking about the code and how we commonly call
FADV_DONTNEED.
FWIW, I wrote a silly directory tree walker/searcher that recurses
through /usr to read and FADV_DONTNEED each file it finds. On a 2
socket 40 ht machine, over 1% is spent in lru_add_drain_all(). With
the patch, that cost is gone; the local drain cost shows at 0.09%. ]
Try to avoid the remote call by flushing the local LRU cache before even
attempting to invalidate anything. It's a cheap operation, and the
local LRU cache is the most likely to hold any pre-LRU pages in the
specified fadvise range.

This is an exceptionally complicated function with just one caller
(tag_pages_for_writeback). We devote a large portion of the runtime of
the test suite to testing this one function which has one caller. By
introducing the new function radix_tree_iter_tag_set(), we can eliminate
all of the complexity while keeping the performance. The caller can now
use a fairly standard radix_tree_for_each() loop, and it doesn't need to
worry about tricksy things like 'start' wrapping.
The test suite continues to spend a large amount of time investigating
this function, but now it's testing the underlying primitives such as
radix_tree_iter_resume() and the radix_tree_for_each_tagged() iterator
which are also used by other parts of the kernel.

This fixes several interlinked problems with the iterators in the
presence of multiorder entries.
1. radix_tree_iter_next() would only advance by one slot, which would
result in the iterators returning the same entry more than once if
there were sibling entries.
2. radix_tree_next_slot() could return an internal pointer instead of
a user pointer if a tagged multiorder entry was immediately followed by
an entry of lower order.
3. radix_tree_next_slot() expanded to a lot more code than it used to
when multiorder support was compiled in. And I wasn't comfortable with
entry_to_node() being in a header file.
Fixing radix_tree_iter_next() for the presence of sibling entries
necessarily involves examining the contents of the radix tree, so we now
need to pass 'slot' to radix_tree_iter_next(), and we need to change the
calling convention so it is called *before* dropping the lock which
protects the tree. Also rename it to radix_tree_iter_resume(), as some
people thought it was necessary to call radix_tree_iter_next() each time
around the loop.
radix_tree_next_slot() becomes closer to how it looked before multiorder
support was introduced. It only checks to see if the next entry in the
chunk is a sibling entry or a pointer to a node; this should be rare
enough that handling this case out of line is not a performance impact
(and such impact is amortised by the fact that the entry we just
processed was a multiorder entry). Also, radix_tree_next_slot() used to
force a new chunk lookup for untagged entries, which is more expensive
than the out of line sibling entry skipping.

Currently finish_mkwrite_fault() returns 0 when PTE got changed before
we acquired PTE lock and VM_FAULT_WRITE when we succeeded in modifying
the PTE. This is somewhat confusing since 0 generally means success, it
is also inconsistent with finish_fault() which returns 0 on success.
Change finish_mkwrite_fault() to return 0 on success and VM_FAULT_NOPAGE
when PTE changed. Practically, there should be no behavioral difference
since we bail out from the fault the same way regardless whether we
return 0, VM_FAULT_NOPAGE, or VM_FAULT_WRITE. Also note that
VM_FAULT_WRITE has no effect for shared mappings since the only two
places that check it - KSM and GUP - care about private mappings only.
Generally the meaning of VM_FAULT_WRITE for shared mappings is not well
defined and we should probably clean that up.

Patch series "dax: Clear dirty bits after flushing caches", v5.
Patchset to clear dirty bits from radix tree of DAX inodes when caches
for corresponding pfns have been flushed. In principle, these patches
enable handlers to easily update PTEs and do other work necessary to
finish the fault without duplicating the functionality present in the
generic code. I'd like to thank Kirill and Ross for reviews of the
series!
This patch (of 20):
To allow full handling of COW faults add memcg field to struct vm_fault
and a return value of ->fault() handler meaning that COW fault is fully
handled and memcg charge must not be canceled. This will allow us to
remove knowledge about special DAX locking from the generic fault code.

Currently we have two different structures for passing fault information
around - struct vm_fault and struct fault_env. DAX will need more
information in struct vm_fault to handle its faults so the content of
that structure would become event closer to fault_env. Furthermore it
would need to generate struct fault_env to be able to call some of the
generic functions. So at this point I don't think there's much use in
keeping these two structures separate. Just embed into struct vm_fault
all that is needed to use it for both purposes.

Unexport the low-level __get_user_pages_unlocked() function and replaces
invocations with calls to more appropriate higher-level functions.
In hva_to_pfn_slow() we are able to replace __get_user_pages_unlocked()
with get_user_pages_unlocked() since we can now pass gup_flags.
In async_pf_execute() and process_vm_rw_single_vec() we need to pass
different tsk, mm arguments so get_user_pages_remote() is the sane
replacement in these cases (having added manual acquisition and release
of mmap_sem.)
Additionally get_user_pages_remote() reintroduces use of the FOLL_TOUCH
flag. However, this flag was originally silently dropped by commit
1e9877902d ("mm/gup: Introduce get_user_pages_remote()"), so this
appears to have been unintentional and reintroducing it is therefore not
an issue.

Patch series "mm: unexport __get_user_pages_unlocked()".
This patch series continues the cleanup of get_user_pages*() functions
taking advantage of the fact we can now pass gup_flags as we please.
It firstly adds an additional 'locked' parameter to
get_user_pages_remote() to allow for its callers to utilise
VM_FAULT_RETRY functionality. This is necessary as the invocation of
__get_user_pages_unlocked() in process_vm_rw_single_vec() makes use of
this and no other existing higher level function would allow it to do
so.
Secondly existing callers of __get_user_pages_unlocked() are replaced
with the appropriate higher-level replacement -
get_user_pages_unlocked() if the current task and memory descriptor are
referenced, or get_user_pages_remote() if other task/memory descriptors
are referenced (having acquiring mmap_sem.)
This patch (of 2):
Add a int *locked parameter to get_user_pages_remote() to allow
VM_FAULT_RETRY faulting behaviour similar to get_user_pages_[un]locked().
Taking into account the previous adjustments to get_user_pages*()
functions allowing for the passing of gup_flags, we are now in a
position where __get_user_pages_unlocked() need only be exported for his
ability to allow VM_FAULT_RETRY behaviour, this adjustment allows us to
subsequently unexport __get_user_pages_unlocked() as well as allowing
for future flexibility in the use of get_user_pages_remote().

compaction has been disabled for GFP_NOFS and GFP_NOIO requests since
the direct compaction was introduced by commit 56de7263fc ("mm:
compaction: direct compact when a high-order allocation fails"). The
main reason is that the migration of page cache pages might recurse back
to fs/io layer and we could potentially deadlock. This is overly
conservative because all the anonymous memory is migrateable in the
GFP_NOFS context just fine. This might be a large portion of the memory
in many/most workkloads.
Remove the GFP_NOFS restriction and make sure that we skip all fs pages
(those with a mapping) while isolating pages to be migrated. We cannot
consider clean fs pages because they might need a metadata update so
only isolate pages without any mapping for nofs requests.
The effect of this patch will be probably very limited in many/most
workloads because higher order GFP_NOFS requests are quite rare,
although different configurations might lead to very different results.
David Chinner has mentioned a heavy metadata workload with 64kB block
which to quote him:
: Unfortunately, there was an era of cargo cult configuration tweaks in the
: Ceph community that has resulted in a large number of production machines
: with XFS filesystems configured this way. And a lot of them store large
: numbers of small files and run under significant sustained memory
: pressure.
:
: I slowly working towards getting rid of these high order allocations and
: replacing them with the equivalent number of single page allocations, but
: I haven't got that (complex) change working yet.
We can do the following to simulate that workload:
$ mkfs.xfs -f -n size=64k <dev>
$ mount <dev> /mnt/scratch
$ time ./fs_mark -D 10000 -S0 -n 100000 -s 0 -L 32 \
-d /mnt/scratch/0 -d /mnt/scratch/1 \
-d /mnt/scratch/2 -d /mnt/scratch/3 \

-d /mnt/scratch/10 -d /mnt/scratch/11 \
-d /mnt/scratch/12 -d /mnt/scratch/13 \
-d /mnt/scratch/14 -d /mnt/scratch/15
and indeed is hammers the system with many high order GFP_NOFS requests as
per a simle tracepoint during the load:
$ echo '!(gfp_flags & 0x80) && (gfp_flags &0x400000)' > $TRACE_MNT/events/kmem/mm_page_alloc/filter

This suggests that the patch has helped even though there is not all that
much of anonymous memory as the workload mostly generates fs metadata. I
assume the success rate would be higher with more anonymous memory which
should be the case in many workloads.

understanding of what is necessary to make unprivileged mounts safe in
the presence of EVM and IMA xattrs which the last commit in this
series reflects. While technically it is a revert the comments it adds
are important for people not getting confused in the future. Clearing
up that confusion allows us to seriously work on unprivileged mounts
of fuse in the next development cycle.
The rest of the fixes in this set are in the intersection of user
namespaces, ptrace, and exec. I started with the first fix which
started a feedback cycle of finding additional issues during review
and fixing them. Culiminating in a fix for a bug that has been present
since at least Linux v1.0.
Potentially these fixes were candidates for being merged during the rc
cycle, and are certainly backport candidates but enough little things
turned up during review and testing that I decided they should be
handled as part of the normal development process just to be certain
there were not any great surprises when it came time to backport some
of these fixes"

needed for both ext4 and xfs dax changes to use iomap for DAX. It
also includes the fscrypt branch which is needed for ubifs encryption
work as well as ext4 encryption and fscrypt cleanups.
Lots of cleanups and bug fixes, especially making sure ext4 is robust
against maliciously corrupted file systems --- especially maliciously
corrupted xattr blocks and a maliciously corrupted superblock. Also
fix ext4 support for 64k block sizes so it works well on ppcle. Fixed
mbcache so we don't miss some common xattr blocks that can be merged.

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the main block pull request this series. Contrary to previous
release, I've kept the core and driver changes in the same branch. We
always ended up having dependencies between the two for obvious
reasons, so makes more sense to keep them together. That said, I'll
probably try and keep more topical branches going forward, especially
for cycles that end up being as busy as this one.
The major parts of this pull request is:
- Improved support for O_DIRECT on block devices, with a small
private implementation instead of using the pig that is
fs/direct-io.c. From Christoph.
- Request completion tracking in a scalable fashion. This is utilized
by two components in this pull, the new hybrid polling and the
writeback queue throttling code.
- Improved support for polling with O_DIRECT, adding a hybrid mode
that combines pure polling with an initial sleep. From me.
- Support for automatic throttling of writeback queues on the block
side. This uses feedback from the device completion latencies to
scale the queue on the block side up or down. From me.
- Support from SMR drives in the block layer and for SD. From Hannes
and Shaun.
- Multi-connection support for nbd. From Josef.
- Cleanup of request and bio flags, so we have a clear split between
which are bio (or rq) private, and which ones are shared. From
Christoph.
- A set of patches from Bart, that improve how we handle queue
stopping and starting in blk-mq.
- Support for WRITE_ZEROES from Chaitanya.
- Lightnvm updates from Javier/Matias.
- Supoort for FC for the nvme-over-fabrics code. From James Smart.

"This is the final round of converting the notifier mess to the state

will happen around rc1, as there are conversions outstanding in other

The whole exercise removed about 2000 lines of code in total and in
course of the conversion several dozen bugs got fixed. The new
mechanism allows to test almost every hotplug step standalone, so
usage sites can exercise all transitions extensively.
There is more room for improvement, like integrating all the
pointlessly different architecture mechanisms of synchronizing,
setting cpus online etc into the core code"

As shown by pcpu_build_alloc_info(), the number of units within a percpu
group is deduced by rounding up the number of CPUs within the group to
@upa boundary/ Therefore, the number of CPUs isn't equal to the units's
if it isn't aligned to @upa normally. However, pcpu_page_first_chunk()
uses BUG_ON() to assert that one number is equal to the other roughly,
so a panic is maybe triggered by the BUG_ON() incorrectly.
In order to fix this issue, the number of CPUs is rounded up then
compared with units's and the BUG_ON() is replaced with a warning and
return of an error code as well, to keep system alive as much as
possible.

Currently we dedicate 1/32 of RAM for quarantine and then reduce it by
1/4 of total quarantine size. This can be a significant amount of
memory. For example, with 4GB of RAM total quarantine size is 128MB and
it is reduced by 32MB at a time. With 128GB of RAM total quarantine
size is 4GB and it is reduced by 1GB. This leads to several problems:
- freeing 1GB can take tens of seconds, causes rcu stall warnings and
just introduces unexpected long delays at random places
- if kmalloc() is called under a mutex, other threads stall on that
mutex while a thread reduces quarantine
- threads wait on quarantine_lock while one thread grabs a large batch
of objects to evict
- we walk the uncached list of object to free twice which makes all of
the above worse
- when a thread frees objects, they are already not accounted against
global_quarantine.bytes; as the result we can have quarantine_size
bytes in quarantine + unbounded amount of memory in large batches in
threads that are in process of freeing
Reduce size of quarantine in smaller batches to reduce the delays. The
only reason to reduce it in batches is amortization of overheads, the
new batch size of 1MB should be well enough to amortize spinlock
lock/unlock and few function calls.
Plus organize quarantine as a FIFO array of batches. This allows to not
walk the list in quarantine_reduce() under quarantine_lock, which in
turn reduces contention and is just faster.
This improves performance of heavy load (syzkaller fuzzing) by ~20% with
4 CPUs and 32GB of RAM. Also this eliminates frequent (every 5 sec)
drops of CPU consumption from ~400% to ~100% (one thread reduces
quarantine while others are waiting on a mutex).
Some reference numbers:
1. Machine with 4 CPUs and 4GB of memory. Quarantine size 128MB.
Currently we free 32MB at at time.
With new code we free 1MB at a time (1024 batches, ~128 are used).
2. Machine with 32 CPUs and 128GB of memory. Quarantine size 4GB.
Currently we free 1GB at at time.
With new code we free 8MB at a time (1024 batches, ~512 are used).
3. Machine with 4096 CPUs and 1TB of memory. Quarantine size 32GB.
Currently we free 8GB at at time.
With new code we free 4MB at a time (16K batches, ~8K are used).

If user sets panic_on_warn, he wants kernel to panic if there is
anything barely wrong with the kernel. KASAN-detected errors are
definitely not less benign than an arbitrary kernel WARNING.
Panic after KASAN errors if panic_on_warn is set.
We use this for continuous fuzzing where we want kernel to stop and
reboot on any error.

Test programs want to know the size of a transparent hugepage. While it
is commonly the same as the size of a hugetlbfs page (shown as
Hugepagesize in /proc/meminfo), that is not always so: powerpc
implements transparent hugepages in a different way from hugetlbfs
pages, so it's coincidence when their sizes are the same; and x86 and
others can support more than one hugetlbfs page size.
Add /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hpage_pmd_size to show the THP
size in bytes - it's the same for Anonymous and Shmem hugepages. Call
it hpage_pmd_size (after HPAGE_PMD_SIZE) rather than hpage_size, in case
some transparent support for pud and pgd pages is added later.

Add a cond_resched() in the unuse_pmd_range() loop (so as to call it
even when pmd none or trans_huge, like zap_pmd_range() does); and in the
unuse_mm() loop (since that might skip over many vmas). shmem_unuse()
and radix_tree_locate_item() look good enough already.
Those were the obvious places, but in fact the stalls came from
find_next_to_unuse(), which sometimes scans through many unused entries.
Apply scan_swap_map()'s LATENCY_LIMIT of 256 there too; and only go off
to test frontswap_map when a used entry is found.

Vlastimil Babka pointed out that commit 479f854a20 ("mm, page_alloc:
defer debugging checks of pages allocated from the PCP") will allow the
per-cpu list counter to be out of sync with the per-cpu list contents if
a struct page is corrupted.
The consequence is an infinite loop if the per-cpu lists get fully
drained by free_pcppages_bulk because all the lists are empty but the
count is positive. The infinite loop occurs here
do {
batch_free++;
if (++migratetype == MIGRATE_PCPTYPES)
migratetype = 0;
list = &pcp->lists[migratetype];
} while (list_empty(list));
What the user sees is a bad page warning followed by a soft lockup with
interrupts disabled in free_pcppages_bulk().
This patch keeps the accounting in sync.

anon_vma_prepare() is mostly a large "if (unlikely(...))" block, as the
expected common case is that an anon_vma already exists. We could turn
the condition around and return 0, but it also makes sense to do it
inline and avoid a call for the common case.
Bloat-o-meter naturally shows that inlining the check has some code size
costs:
add/remove: 1/1 grow/shrink: 4/0 up/down: 475/-373 (102)
function old new delta
__anon_vma_prepare - 359 +359
handle_mm_fault 2744 2796 +52

hugetlb_fault 2123 2145 +22
wp_page_copy 1469 1487 +18
anon_vma_prepare 373 - -373
Checking the asm however confirms that the hot paths now avoid a call,
which is moved away.

__dump_page() is used when a page metadata inconsistency is detected,
either by standard runtime checks, or extra checks in CONFIG_DEBUG_VM
builds. It prints some of the relevant metadata, but not the whole
struct page, which is based on unions and interpretation is dependent on
the context.
This means that sometimes e.g. a VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() checks certain field,
which is however not printed by __dump_page() and the resulting bug
report may then lack clues that could help in determining the root
cause. This patch solves the problem by simply printing the whole
struct page word by word, so no part is missing, but the interpretation
of the data is left to developers. This is similar to e.g. x86_64 raw
stack dumps.

Independent of whether the vma is for anonymous memory, some arches like
ppc64 would like to override pmd_move_must_withdraw().
One option is to encapsulate the vma_is_anonymous() check for general
architectures inside pmd_move_must_withdraw() so that is always called
and architectures that need unconditional overriding can override this
function. ppc64 needs to override the function when the MMU is
configured to use hash PTE's.

Since commit 59dc76b0d4 ("mm: vmscan: reduce size of inactive file
list") the size of the active file list is no longer limited to half of
memory. Increase the shadow node limit accordingly to avoid throwing
out shadow entries that might still result in eligible refaults.
The exact size of the active list now depends on the overall size of the
page cache, but converges toward taking up most of the space:
In mm/vmscan.c::inactive_list_is_low(),
* total target max
* memory ratio inactive
* -------------------------------------
* 10MB 1 5MB
* 100MB 1 50MB
* 1GB 3 250MB
* 10GB 10 0.9GB
* 100GB 31 3GB
* 1TB 101 10GB
* 10TB 320 32GB
It would be possible to apply the same precise ratios when determining
the limit for radix tree nodes containing shadow entries, but since it
is merely an approximation of the oldest refault distances in the wild
and the code also makes assumptions about the node population density,
keep it simple and always target the full cache size.
While at it, clarify the comment and the formula for memory footprint.
