"This is the main pull request for block/storage for 4.21.
Larger than usual, it was a busy round with lots of goodies queued up.
Most notable is the removal of the old IO stack, which has been a long
time coming. No new features for a while, everything coming in this
week has all been fixes for things that were previously merged.
This contains:
- Use atomic counters instead of semaphores for mtip32xx (Arnd)
- Cleanup of the mtip32xx request setup (Christoph)
- Fix for circular locking dependency in loop (Jan, Tetsuo)
- bcache (Coly, Guoju, Shenghui)
* Optimizations for writeback caching
* Various fixes and improvements
- nvme (Chaitanya, Christoph, Sagi, Jay, me, Keith)
* host and target support for NVMe over TCP
* Error log page support
* Support for separate read/write/poll queues
* Much improved polling
* discard OOM fallback
* Tracepoint improvements
- lightnvm (Hans, Hua, Igor, Matias, Javier)
* Igor added packed metadata to pblk. Now drives without metadata
per LBA can be used as well.
* Fix from Geert on uninitialized value on chunk metadata reads.
* Fixes from Hans and Javier to pblk recovery and write path.
* Fix from Hua Su to fix a race condition in the pblk recovery
code.
* Scan optimization added to pblk recovery from Zhoujie.
* Small geometry cleanup from me.
- Conversion of the last few drivers that used the legacy path to
blk-mq (me)
- Removal of legacy IO path in SCSI (me, Christoph)
- Removal of legacy IO stack and schedulers (me)
- Support for much better polling, now without interrupts at all.
blk-mq adds support for multiple queue maps, which enables us to
have a map per type. This in turn enables nvme to have separate
completion queues for polling, which can then be interrupt-less.
Also means we're ready for async polled IO, which is hopefully
coming in the next release.
- Killing of (now) unused block exports (Christoph)
- Unification of the blk-rq-qos and blk-wbt wait handling (Josef)
- Support for zoned testing with null_blk (Masato)
- sx8 conversion to per-host tag sets (Christoph)
- IO priority improvements (Damien)
- mq-deadline zoned fix (Damien)
- Ref count blkcg series (Dennis)
- Lots of blk-mq improvements and speedups (me)
- sbitmap scalability improvements (me)
- Make core inflight IO accounting per-cpu (Mikulas)

Burt Holzman has noticed that memcg v1 doesn't notify about OOM events via
eventfd anymore. The reason is that 29ef680ae7 ("memcg, oom: move
out_of_memory back to the charge path") has moved the oom handling back to
the charge path. While doing so the notification was left behind in
mem_cgroup_oom_synchronize.
Fix the issue by replicating the oom hierarchy locking and the
notification.

KSM pages may be mapped to the multiple VMAs that cannot be reached from
one anon_vma. So during swapin, a new copy of the page need to be
generated if a different anon_vma is needed, please refer to comments of
ksm_might_need_to_copy() for details.
During swapoff, unuse_vma() uses anon_vma (if available) to locate VMA and
virtual address mapped to the page, so not all mappings to a swapped out
KSM page could be found. So in try_to_unuse(), even if the swap count of
a swap entry isn't zero, the page needs to be deleted from swap cache, so
that, in the next round a new page could be allocated and swapin for the
other mappings of the swapped out KSM page.
But this contradicts with the THP swap support. Where the THP could be
deleted from swap cache only after the swap count of every swap entry in
the huge swap cluster backing the THP has reach 0. So try_to_unuse() is
changed in commit e07098294a ("mm, THP, swap: support to reclaim swap
space for THP swapped out") to check that before delete a page from swap
cache, but this has broken KSM swapoff too.
Fortunately, KSM is for the normal pages only, so the original behavior
for KSM pages could be restored easily via checking PageTransCompound().
That is how this patch works.
The bug is introduced by e07098294a ("mm, THP, swap: support to reclaim
swap space for THP swapped out"), which is merged by v4.14-rc1. So I
think we should backport the fix to from 4.14 on. But Hugh thinks it may
be rare for the KSM pages being in the swap device when swapoff, so nobody
reports the bug so far.

hugetlbfs page faults can race with truncate and hole punch operations.
Current code in the page fault path attempts to handle this by 'backing
out' operations if we encounter the race. One obvious omission in the
current code is removing a page newly added to the page cache. This is
pretty straight forward to address, but there is a more subtle and
difficult issue of backing out hugetlb reservations. To handle this
correctly, the 'reservation state' before page allocation needs to be
noted so that it can be properly backed out. There are four distinct
possibilities for reservation state: shared/reserved, shared/no-resv,
private/reserved and private/no-resv. Backing out a reservation may
require memory allocation which could fail so that needs to be taken into
account as well.
Instead of writing the required complicated code for this rare occurrence,
just eliminate the race. i_mmap_rwsem is now held in read mode for the
duration of page fault processing. Hold i_mmap_rwsem longer in truncation
and hold punch code to cover the call to remove_inode_hugepages.
With this modification, code in remove_inode_hugepages checking for races
becomes 'dead' as it can not longer happen. Remove the dead code and
expand comments to explain reasoning. Similarly, checks for races with
truncation in the page fault path can be simplified and removed.

While looking at BUGs associated with invalid huge page map counts, it was
discovered and observed that a huge pte pointer could become 'invalid' and
point to another task's page table. Consider the following:
A task takes a page fault on a shared hugetlbfs file and calls
huge_pte_alloc to get a ptep. Suppose the returned ptep points to a
shared pmd.
Now, another task truncates the hugetlbfs file. As part of truncation, it
unmaps everyone who has the file mapped. If the range being truncated is
covered by a shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will be called. For all but the
last user of the shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will clear the pud pointing
to the pmd. If the task in the middle of the page fault is not the last
user, the ptep returned by huge_pte_alloc now points to another task's
page table or worse. This leads to bad things such as incorrect page
map/reference counts or invalid memory references.
To fix, expand the use of i_mmap_rwsem as follows:
- i_mmap_rwsem is held in read mode whenever huge_pmd_share is called.
huge_pmd_share is only called via huge_pte_alloc, so callers of
huge_pte_alloc take i_mmap_rwsem before calling. In addition, callers
of huge_pte_alloc continue to hold the semaphore until finished with the
ptep.
- i_mmap_rwsem is held in write mode whenever huge_pmd_unshare is
called.

Model call chain after should_failslab(). Likewise, we can now use a
kprobe to override the return value of should_fail_alloc_page() and inject
allocation failures into alloc_page*().
This will allow injecting allocation failures using the BCC tools even
without building kernel with CONFIG_FAIL_PAGE_ALLOC and booting it with a
fail_page_alloc= parameter, which incurs some overhead even when failures
are not being injected. On the other hand, this patch adds an
unconditional call to should_fail_alloc_page() from page allocation
hotpath. That overhead should be rather negligible with
CONFIG_FAIL_PAGE_ALLOC=n when there's no kprobe attached, though.

Patch series "mm: migrate: Fix page migration stalls for blkdev pages".
This patchset deals with page migration stalls that were reported by our
customer due to a block device page that had a bufferhead that was in the
bh LRU cache.
The patchset modifies the page migration code so that bufferheads are
completely handled inside buffer_migrate_page() and then provides a new
migration helper for pages with buffer heads that is safe to use even for
block device pages and that also deals with bh lrus.
This patch (of 6):
Factor out function to compute number of expected page references in
migrate_page_move_mapping(). Note that we move hpage_nr_pages() and
page_has_private() checks from under xas_lock_irq() however this is safe
since we hold page lock.

drain_all_pages is documented to drain per-cpu pages for a given zone (if
non-NULL). The current implementation doesn't match the description
though. It will drain all pcp pages for all zones that happen to have
cached pages on the same cpu as the given zone. This will lead to
premature pcp cache draining for zones that are not of any interest to the
caller - e.g. compaction, hwpoison or memory offline.
This forces the page allocator to take locks and potential lock contention
as a result.
There is no real reason for this sub-optimal implementation. Replace
per-cpu work item with a dedicated structure which contains a pointer to
the zone and pass it over to the worker. This will get the zone
information all the way down to the worker function and do the right job.

When CONFIG_KASAN is enabled on large memory SMP systems, the deferrred
pages initialization can take a long time. Below were the reported init
times on a 8-socket 96-core 4TB IvyBridge system.
1) Non-debug kernel without CONFIG_KASAN
[ 8.764222] node 1 initialised, 132086516 pages in 7027ms
2) Debug kernel with CONFIG_KASAN
[ 146.288115] node 1 initialised, 132075466 pages in 143052ms
So the page init time in a debug kernel was 20X of the non-debug kernel.
The long init time can be problematic as the page initialization is done
with interrupt disabled. In this particular case, it caused the
appearance of following warning messages as well as NMI backtraces of all
the cores that were doing the initialization.

The long init time was mainly caused by the call to kasan_free_pages() to
poison the newly initialized pages. On a 4TB system, we are talking about
almost 500GB of memory probably on the same node.
In reality, we may not need to poison the newly initialized pages before
they are ever allocated. So KASAN poisoning of freed pages before the
completion of deferred memory initialization is now disabled. Those pages
will be properly poisoned when they are allocated or freed after deferred
pages initialization is done.
With this change, the new page initialization time became:
[ 21.948010] node 1 initialised, 132075466 pages in 18702ms
This was still about double the non-debug kernel time, but was much
better than before.

Currently, NR_PAGEBLOCK_BITS and MIGRATE_TYPES are not associated by code.
If someone adds extra migrate type, then he may forget to enlarge the

NR_PAGEBLOCK_BITS depends on MIGRATE_TYPES, while these macro spread on
two different .h file with reverse dependency, it is a little hard to

The timeout is configured in /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/sleep_millisecs.
In case of user writes a big value by a mistake, and the thread enters
into schedule_timeout_interruptible(), it's not possible to cancel the
sleep by writing a new smaler value; the thread is just sleeping till
timeout expires.
The patch fixes the problem by waking the thread each time after the value

This also may be useful for debug purposes; and also for userspace

filemap_map_pages takes a speculative reference to each page in the range
before it tries to lock that page. While this is correct it also can
influence page migration which will bail out when seeing an elevated
reference count. The faultaround code would bail on seeing a locked page
so we can pro-actively check the PageLocked bit before
page_cache_get_speculative and prevent from pointless reference count
churn.

Memory migration might fail during offlining and we keep retrying in that
case. This is currently obfuscated by goto retry loop. The code is hard
to follow and as a result it is even suboptimal becase each retry round
scans the full range from start_pfn even though we have successfully
scanned/migrated [start_pfn, pfn] range already. This is all only because
check_pages_isolated failure has to rescan the full range again.
De-obfuscate the migration retry loop by promoting it to a real for loop.
In fact remove the goto altogether by making it a proper double loop
(yeah, gotos are nasty in this specific case). In the end we will get a
slightly more optimal code which is better readable.

Patch series "few memory offlining enhancements".
I have been chasing memory offlining not making progress recently. On the
way I have noticed few weird decisions in the code. The migration itself
is restricted without a reasonable justification and the retry loop around
the migration is quite messy. This is addressed by patch 1 and patch 2.
Patch 3 is targeting on the faultaround code which has been a hot
candidate for the initial issue reported upstream [2] and that I am
debugging internally. It turned out to be not the main contributor in the
end but I believe we should address it regardless. See the patch
description for more details.

This patch (of 3):
do_migrate_range has been limiting the number of pages to migrate to 256
for some reason which is not documented. Even if the limit made some
sense back then when it was introduced it doesn't really serve a good
purpose these days. If the range contains huge pages then we break out of
the loop too early and go through LRU and pcp caches draining and
scan_movable_pages is quite suboptimal.
The only reason to limit the number of pages I can think of is to reduce
the potential time to react on the fatal signal. But even then the number
of pages is a questionable metric because even a single page migration
might block in a non-killable state (e.g. __unmap_and_move).
Remove the limit and offline the full requested range (this is one
memblock worth of pages with the current code). Should we ever get a
report that offlining takes too long to react on fatal signal then we
should rather fix the core migration to use killable waits and bailout
on a signal.

Userspace falls short when trying to find out whether a specific memory
range is eligible for THP. There are usecases that would like to know
that
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.21.1809251248450.50347@chino.kir.corp.google.com
: This is used to identify heap mappings that should be able to fault thp
: but do not, and they normally point to a low-on-memory or fragmentation
: issue.
The only way to deduce this now is to query for hg resp. nh flags and
confronting the state with the global setting. Except that there is also
PR_SET_THP_DISABLE that might change the picture. So the final logic is
not trivial. Moreover the eligibility of the vma depends on the type of
VMA as well. In the past we have supported only anononymous memory VMAs
but things have changed and shmem based vmas are supported as well these
days and the query logic gets even more complicated because the
eligibility depends on the mount option and another global configuration
knob.
Simplify the current state and report the THP eligibility in
/proc/<pid>/smaps for each existing vma. Reuse
transparent_hugepage_enabled for this purpose. The original
implementation of this function assumes that the caller knows that the vma
itself is supported for THP so make the core checks into
__transparent_hugepage_enabled and use it for existing callers.
__show_smap just use the new transparent_hugepage_enabled which also
checks the vma support status (please note that this one has to be out of
line due to include dependency issues).

We have received a bug report that an injected MCE about faulty memory
prevents memory offline to succeed on 4.4 base kernel. The underlying
reason was that the HWPoison page has an elevated reference count and the
migration keeps failing. There are two problems with that. First of all
it is dubious to migrate the poisoned page because we know that accessing
that memory is possible to fail. Secondly it doesn't make any sense to
migrate a potentially broken content and preserve the memory corruption
over to a new location.
Oscar has found out that 4.4 and the current upstream kernels behave
slightly differently with his simply testcase
===
int main(void)
{
int ret;
int i;
int fd;
char *array = malloc(4096);
char *array_locked = malloc(4096);
fd = open("/tmp/data", O_RDONLY);
read(fd, array, 4095);
for (i = 0; i < 4096; i++)
array_locked[i] = 'd';
ret = mlock((void *)PAGE_ALIGN((unsigned long)array_locked), sizeof(array_locked));
if (ret)
perror("mlock");
sleep (20);
ret = madvise((void *)PAGE_ALIGN((unsigned long)array_locked), 4096, MADV_HWPOISON);
if (ret)
perror("madvise");
for (i = 0; i < 4096; i++)
array_locked[i] = 'd';
return 0;
}
===
+ offline this memory.
In 4.4 kernels he saw the hwpoisoned page to be returned back to the LRU
list
kernel: [<ffffffff81019ac9>] dump_trace+0x59/0x340

And that latter confuses the hotremove path because an LRU page is
attempted to be migrated and that fails due to an elevated reference
count. It is quite possible that the reuse of the HWPoisoned page is some
kind of fixed race condition but I am not really sure about that.
With the upstream kernel the failure is slightly different. The page
doesn't seem to have LRU bit set but isolate_movable_page simply fails and
do_migrate_range simply puts all the isolated pages back to LRU and
therefore no progress is made and scan_movable_pages finds same set of
pages over and over again.
Fix both cases by explicitly checking HWPoisoned pages before we even try
to get reference on the page, try to unmap it if it is still mapped. As
explained by Naoya:
: Hwpoison code never unmapped those for no big reason because
: Ksm pages never dominate memory, so we simply didn't have strong
: motivation to save the pages.
Also put WARN_ON(PageLRU) in case there is a race and we can hit LRU
HWPoison pages which shouldn't happen but I couldn't convince myself about
that. Naoya has noted the following:
: Theoretically no such gurantee, because try_to_unmap() doesn't have a
: guarantee of success and then memory_failure() returns immediately
: when hwpoison_user_mappings fails.
: Or the following code (comes after hwpoison_user_mappings block) also impli=
: es
: that the target page can still have PageLRU flag.
:
: /*
: * Torn down by someone else?
: */
: if (PageLRU(p) && !PageSwapCache(p) && p->mapping =3D=3D NULL) {
: action_result(pfn, MF_MSG_TRUNCATED_LRU, MF_IGNORED);
: res =3D -EBUSY;
: goto out;
: }
:
: So I think it's OK to keep "if (WARN_ON(PageLRU(page)))" block in
: current version of your patch.

kmemleak_scan() goes through all online nodes and tries to scan all used
pages.
We can do better and use pfn_to_online_page(), so in case we have
CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG, offlined pages will be skiped automatically. For
boxes where CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG is not present, pfn_to_online_page()
will fallback to pfn_valid().
Another little optimization is to check if the page belongs to the node we
are currently checking, so in case we have nodes interleaved we will not
check the same pfn multiple times.
I ran some tests:
Add some memory to node1 and node2 making it interleaved:
(qemu) object_add memory-backend-ram,id=ram0,size=1G
(qemu) device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm0,memdev=ram0,node=1
(qemu) object_add memory-backend-ram,id=ram1,size=1G
(qemu) device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm1,memdev=ram1,node=2
(qemu) object_add memory-backend-ram,id=ram2,size=1G
(qemu) device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm2,memdev=ram2,node=1
Then, we offline that memory:
# for i in {32..39} ; do echo "offline" > /sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory$i/state;done
# for i in {48..55} ; do echo "offline" > /sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory$i/state;don
# for i in {40..47} ; do echo "offline" > /sys/devices/system/node/node2/memory$i/state;done
And we run kmemleak_scan:

write_cache_pages() is used in both background and integrity writeback
scenarios by various filesystems. Background writeback is mostly
concerned with cleaning a certain number of dirty pages based on various
mm heuristics. It may not write the full set of dirty pages or wait for
I/O to complete. Integrity writeback is responsible for persisting a set
of dirty pages before the writeback job completes. For example, an
fsync() call must perform integrity writeback to ensure data is on disk
before the call returns.
write_cache_pages() unconditionally breaks out of its processing loop in
the event of a ->writepage() error. This is fine for background
writeback, which had no strict requirements and will eventually come
around again. This can cause problems for integrity writeback on
filesystems that might need to clean up state associated with failed page
writeouts. For example, XFS performs internal delayed allocation
accounting before returning a ->writepage() error, where applicable. If
the current writeback happens to be associated with an unmount and
write_cache_pages() completes the writeback prematurely due to error, the
filesystem is unmounted in an inconsistent state if dirty+delalloc pages
still exist.
To handle this problem, update write_cache_pages() to always process the
full set of pages for integrity writeback regardless of ->writepage()
errors. Save the first encountered error and return it to the caller once
complete. This facilitates XFS (or any other fs that expects integrity
writeback to process the entire set of dirty pages) to clean up its
internal state completely in the event of persistent mapping errors.
Background writeback continues to exit on the first error encountered.

During online_pages phase, pgdat->nr_zones will be updated in case this
zone is empty.
Currently the online_pages phase is protected by the global locks
(device_device_hotplug_lock and mem_hotplug_lock), which ensures there is
no contention during the update of nr_zones.
These global locks introduces scalability issues (especially the second
one), which slow down code relying on get_online_mems(). This is also a
preparation for not having to rely on get_online_mems() but instead some
more fine grained locks.
The patch moves init_currently_empty_zone under both zone_span_writelock
and pgdat_resize_lock because both the pgdat state is changed (nr_zones)
and the zone's start_pfn. Also this patch changes the documentation of
node_size_lock to include the protection of nr_zones.

pgdat_resize_lock is used to protect pgdat's memory region information
like: node_start_pfn, node_present_pages, etc. While in function
sparse_add/remove_one_section(), pgdat_resize_lock is used to protect
initialization/release of one mem_section. This looks not proper.
These code paths are currently protected by mem_hotplug_lock currently but
should there ever be any reason for locking at the sparse layer a
dedicated lock should be introduced.
Following is the current call trace of sparse_add/remove_one_section()
mem_hotplug_begin()
arch_add_memory()
add_pages()
__add_pages()
__add_section()
sparse_add_one_section()
mem_hotplug_done()
mem_hotplug_begin()

The comment above the pgdat_resize_lock also mentions "Holding this will
also guarantee that any pfn_valid() stays that way.", which is true with
the current implementation and false after this patch. But current
implementation doesn't meet this comment. There isn't any pfn walkers to
take the lock so this looks like a relict from the past. This patch also
removes this comment.

Kmemleak does not play well with KASAN (tested on both HPE Apollo 70 and
Huawei TaiShan 2280 aarch64 servers).
After calling start_kernel()->setup_arch()->kasan_init(), kmemleak early
log buffer went from something like 280 to 260000 which caused kmemleak
disabled and crash dump memory reservation failed. The multitude of
kmemleak_alloc() calls is from nested loops while KASAN is setting up full
memory mappings, so let early kmemleak allocations skip those
memblock_alloc_internal() calls came from kasan_init() given that those
early KASAN memory mappings should not reference to other memory. Hence,
no kmemleak false positives.

Patch series "Do not touch pages in hot-remove path", v2.
This patchset aims for two things:
1) A better definition about offline and hot-remove stage
2) Solving bugs where we can access non-initialized pages
during hot-remove operations [2] [3].
This is achieved by moving all page/zone handling to the offline
stage, so we do not need to access pages when hot-removing memory.

This patch (of 5):
This is a preparation for the following-up patches. The idea of passing
the nid is that it will allow us to get rid of the zone parameter
afterwards.

When DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is configured, only the first section of
each node's highest zone is initialized before defer stage.
static_init_pgcnt is used to store the number of pages like this:
pgdat->static_init_pgcnt = min_t(unsigned long, PAGES_PER_SECTION,
pgdat->node_spanned_pages);
because we don't want to overflow zone's range.
But this is not necessary, since defer_init() is called like this:
memmap_init_zone()
for pfn in [start_pfn, end_pfn)
defer_init(pfn, end_pfn)
In case (pgdat->node_spanned_pages < PAGES_PER_SECTION), the loop would
stop before calling defer_init().
BTW, comparing PAGES_PER_SECTION with node_spanned_pages is not correct,
since nr_initialised is zone based instead of node based. Even
node_spanned_pages is bigger than PAGES_PER_SECTION, its highest zone
would have pages less than PAGES_PER_SECTION.

Waiting on a page migration entry has used wait_on_page_locked() all along
since 2006: but you cannot safely wait_on_page_locked() without holding a
reference to the page, and that extra reference is enough to make
migrate_page_move_mapping() fail with -EAGAIN, when a racing task faults
on the entry before migrate_page_move_mapping() gets there.
And that failure is retried nine times, amplifying the pain when trying to
migrate a popular page. With a single persistent faulter, migration
sometimes succeeds; with two or three concurrent faulters, success becomes
much less likely (and the more the page was mapped, the worse the overhead
of unmapping and remapping it on each try).
This is especially a problem for memory offlining, where the outer level
retries forever (or until terminated from userspace), because a heavy
refault workload can trigger an endless loop of migration failures.
wait_on_page_locked() is the wrong tool for the job.
David Herrmann (but was he the first?) noticed this issue in 2014:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=140110465608116&w=2
Tim Chen started a thread in August 2017 which appears relevant:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150275941014915&w=2 where Kan Liang went
on to implicate __migration_entry_wait():
https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150300268411980&w=2 and the thread ended
up with the v4.14 commits: 2554db9165 ("sched/wait: Break up long wake
list walk") 11a19c7b09 ("sched/wait: Introduce wakeup boomark in
wake_up_page_bit")
Baoquan He reported "Memory hotplug softlock issue" 14 November 2018:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=154217936431300&w=2
We have all assumed that it is essential to hold a page reference while
waiting on a page lock: partly to guarantee that there is still a struct
page when MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is configured, but also to protect against
reuse of the struct page going to someone who then holds the page locked
indefinitely, when the waiter can reasonably expect timely unlocking.
But in fact, so long as wait_on_page_bit_common() does the put_page(), and
is careful not to rely on struct page contents thereafter, there is no
need to hold a reference to the page while waiting on it. That does mean
that this case cannot go back through the loop: but that's fine for the
page migration case, and even if used more widely, is limited by the "Stop
walking if it's locked" optimization in wake_page_function().
Add interface put_and_wait_on_page_locked() to do this, using "behavior"
enum in place of "lock" arg to wait_on_page_bit_common() to implement it.
No interruptible or killable variant needed yet, but they might follow: I
have a vague notion that reporting -EINTR should take precedence over
return from wait_on_page_bit_common() without knowing the page state, so
arrange it accordingly - but that may be nothing but pedantic.
__migration_entry_wait() still has to take a brief reference to the page,
prior to calling put_and_wait_on_page_locked(): but now that it is dropped
before waiting, the chance of impeding page migration is very much
reduced. Should we perhaps disable preemption across this?
shrink_page_list()'s __ClearPageLocked(): that was a surprise! This
survived a lot of testing before that showed up. PageWaiters may have
been set by wait_on_page_bit_common(), and the reference dropped, just
before shrink_page_list() succeeds in freezing its last page reference: in
such a case, unlock_page() must be used. Follow the suggestion from
Michal Hocko, just revert a978d6f521 ("mm: unlockless reclaim") now:
that optimization predates PageWaiters, and won't buy much these days; but
we can reinstate it for the !PageWaiters case if anyone notices.
It does raise the question: should vmscan.c's is_page_cache_freeable() and
__remove_mapping() now treat a PageWaiters page as if an extra reference
were held? Perhaps, but I don't think it matters much, since
shrink_page_list() already had to win its trylock_page(), so waiters are
not very common there: I noticed no difference when trying the bigger
change, and it's surely not needed while put_and_wait_on_page_locked() is
only used for page migration.

The current oom report doesn't display victim's memcg context during the
global OOM situation. While this information is not strictly needed, it
can be really helpful for containerized environments to locate which
container has lost a process. Now that we have a single line for the oom
context, we can trivially add both the oom memcg (this can be either
global_oom or a specific memcg which hits its hard limits) and task_memcg
which is the victim's memcg.
Below is the single line output in the oom report after this patch.
- global oom context information:

An external fragmentation event was previously described as
When the page allocator fragments memory, it records the event using
the mm_page_alloc_extfrag event. If the fallback_order is smaller
than a pageblock order (order-9 on 64-bit x86) then it's considered
an event that will cause external fragmentation issues in the future.
The kernel reduces the probability of such events by increasing the
watermark sizes by calling set_recommended_min_free_kbytes early in the
lifetime of the system. This works reasonably well in general but if
there are enough sparsely populated pageblocks then the problem can still
occur as enough memory is free overall and kswapd stays asleep.
This patch introduces a watermark_boost_factor sysctl that allows a zone
watermark to be temporarily boosted when an external fragmentation causing
events occurs. The boosting will stall allocations that would decrease
free memory below the boosted low watermark and kswapd is woken if the
calling context allows to reclaim an amount of memory relative to the size
of the high watermark and the watermark_boost_factor until the boost is
cleared. When kswapd finishes, it wakes kcompactd at the pageblock order
to clean some of the pageblocks that may have been affected by the
fragmentation event. kswapd avoids any writeback, slab shrinkage and swap
from reclaim context during this operation to avoid excessive system
disruption in the name of fragmentation avoidance. Care is taken so that
kswapd will do normal reclaim work if the system is really low on memory.
This was evaluated using the same workloads as "mm, page_alloc: Spread
allocations across zones before introducing fragmentation".

Note that the setting in the fast path happens in alloc_flags_nofragment()

That's true in this patch but is not true later so it's done now for

Patch series "Fragmentation avoidance improvements", v5.
It has been noted before that fragmentation avoidance (aka
anti-fragmentation) is not perfect. Given sufficient time or an adverse
workload, memory gets fragmented and the long-term success of high-order
allocations degrades. This series defines an adverse workload, a definition
of external fragmentation events (including serious) ones and a series
that reduces the level of those fragmentation events.
The details of the workload and the consequences are described in more
detail in the changelogs. However, from patch 1, this is a high-level
summary of the adverse workload. The exact details are found in the
mmtests implementation.
The broad details of the workload are as follows;
1. Create an XFS filesystem (not specified in the configuration but done
as part of the testing for this patch)
2. Start 4 fio threads that write a number of 64K files inefficiently.
Inefficiently means that files are created on first access and not
created in advance (fio parameterr create_on_open=1) and fallocate
is not used (fallocate=none). With multiple IO issuers this creates
a mix of slab and page cache allocations over time. The total size
of the files is 150% physical memory so that the slabs and page cache
pages get mixed
3. Warm up a number of fio read-only threads accessing the same files
created in step 2. This part runs for the same length of time it
took to create the files. It'll fault back in old data and further
interleave slab and page cache allocations. As it's now low on
memory due to step 2, fragmentation occurs as pageblocks get
stolen.
4. While step 3 is still running, start a process that tries to allocate
75% of memory as huge pages with a number of threads. The number of
threads is based on a (NR_CPUS_SOCKET - NR_FIO_THREADS)/4 to avoid THP
threads contending with fio, any other threads or forcing cross-NUMA
scheduling. Note that the test has not been used on a machine with less
than 8 cores. The benchmark records whether huge pages were allocated
and what the fault latency was in microseconds
5. Measure the number of events potentially causing external fragmentation,
the fault latency and the huge page allocation success rate.
6. Cleanup
Overall the series reduces external fragmentation causing events by over 94%
on 1 and 2 socket machines, which in turn impacts high-order allocation
success rates over the long term. There are differences in latencies and
high-order allocation success rates. Latencies are a mixed bag as they
are vulnerable to exact system state and whether allocations succeeded
so they are treated as a secondary metric.
Patch 1 uses lower zones if they are populated and have free memory
instead of fragmenting a higher zone. It's special cased to
handle a Normal->DMA32 fallback with the reasons explained
in the changelog.
Patch 2-4 boosts watermarks temporarily when an external fragmentation
event occurs. kswapd wakes to reclaim a small amount of old memory
and then wakes kcompactd on completion to recover the system
slightly. This introduces some overhead in the slowpath. The level
of boosting can be tuned or disabled depending on the tolerance
for fragmentation vs allocation latency.
Patch 5 stalls some movable allocation requests to let kswapd from patch 4
make some progress. The duration of the stalls is very low but it
is possible to tune the system to avoid fragmentation events if
larger stalls can be tolerated.
The bulk of the improvement in fragmentation avoidance is from patches
1-4 but patch 5 can deal with a rare corner case and provides the option
of tuning a system for THP allocation success rates in exchange for
some stalls to control fragmentation.
This patch (of 5):
The page allocator zone lists are iterated based on the watermarks of each
zone which does not take anti-fragmentation into account. On x86, node 0
may have multiple zones while other nodes have one zone. A consequence is
that tasks running on node 0 may fragment ZONE_NORMAL even though
ZONE_DMA32 has plenty of free memory. This patch special cases the
allocator fast path such that it'll try an allocation from a lower local
zone before fragmenting a higher zone. In this case, stealing of
pageblocks or orders larger than a pageblock are still allowed in the fast
path as they are uninteresting from a fragmentation point of view.
This was evaluated using a benchmark designed to fragment memory before
attempting THP allocations. It's implemented in mmtests as the following
configurations
configs/config-global-dhp__workload_thpfioscale
configs/config-global-dhp__workload_thpfioscale-defrag
configs/config-global-dhp__workload_thpfioscale-madvhugepage
e.g. from mmtests
./run-mmtests.sh --run-monitor --config configs/config-global-dhp__workload_thpfioscale test-run-1
The broad details of the workload are as follows;
1. Create an XFS filesystem (not specified in the configuration but done
as part of the testing for this patch).
2. Start 4 fio threads that write a number of 64K files inefficiently.
Inefficiently means that files are created on first access and not
created in advance (fio parameter create_on_open=1) and fallocate
is not used (fallocate=none). With multiple IO issuers this creates
a mix of slab and page cache allocations over time. The total size
of the files is 150% physical memory so that the slabs and page cache
pages get mixed.
3. Warm up a number of fio read-only processes accessing the same files
created in step 2. This part runs for the same length of time it
took to create the files. It'll refault old data and further
interleave slab and page cache allocations. As it's now low on
memory due to step 2, fragmentation occurs as pageblocks get
stolen.
4. While step 3 is still running, start a process that tries to allocate
75% of memory as huge pages with a number of threads. The number of
threads is based on a (NR_CPUS_SOCKET - NR_FIO_THREADS)/4 to avoid THP
threads contending with fio, any other threads or forcing cross-NUMA
scheduling. Note that the test has not been used on a machine with less
than 8 cores. The benchmark records whether huge pages were allocated
and what the fault latency was in microseconds.
5. Measure the number of events potentially causing external fragmentation,
the fault latency and the huge page allocation success rate.
6. Cleanup the test files.
Note that due to the use of IO and page cache that this benchmark is not
suitable for running on large machines where the time to fragment memory
may be excessive. Also note that while this is one mix that generates
fragmentation that it's not the only mix that generates fragmentation.
Differences in workload that are more slab-intensive or whether SLUB is
used with high-order pages may yield different results.
When the page allocator fragments memory, it records the event using the
mm_page_alloc_extfrag ftrace event. If the fallback_order is smaller than
a pageblock order (order-9 on 64-bit x86) then it's considered to be an
"external fragmentation event" that may cause issues in the future.
Hence, the primary metric here is the number of external fragmentation
events that occur with order < 9. The secondary metric is allocation
latency and huge page allocation success rates but note that differences
in latencies and what the success rate also can affect the number of
external fragmentation event which is why it's a secondary metric.

Fault latencies are slightly reduced while allocation success rates remain
at zero as this configuration does not make any special effort to allocate
THP and fio is heavily active at the time and either filling memory or
keeping pages resident. However, a 49% reduction of serious fragmentation
events reduces the changes of external fragmentation being a problem in
the future.
Vlastimil asked during review for a breakdown of the allocation types
that are falling back.

42 MIGRATE_UNRECLAIMABLE
The majority of the fallbacks are due to movable allocations and this is
consistent for the workload throughout the series so will not be presented
again as the primary source of fallbacks are movable allocations.
Movable fallbacks are sometimes considered "ok" to fallback because they
can be migrated. The problem is that they can fill an
unmovable/reclaimable pageblock causing those allocations to fallback
later and polluting pageblocks with pages that cannot move. If there is a
movable fallback, it is pretty much guaranteed to affect an
unmovable/reclaimable pageblock and while it might not be enough to
actually cause a unmovable/reclaimable fallback in the future, we cannot
know that in advance so the patch takes the only option available to it.
Hence, it's important to control them. This point is also consistent
throughout the series and will not be repeated.

partially due to the removal of __GFP_THISNODE in commit ac5b2c1891

allocations can now spill over to remote nodes instead of fragmenting

There was a slight reduction in external fragmentation events although the
latencies were higher. The allocation success rate is high enough that
the system is struggling and there is quite a lot of parallel reclaim and
compaction activity. There is also a certain degree of luck on whether
processes start on node 0 or not for this patch but the relevance is
reduced later in the series.
Overall, the patch reduces the number of external fragmentation causing
events so the success of THP over long periods of time would be improved
for this adverse workload.

page_frag_free() calls __free_pages_ok() to free the page back to Buddy.
This is OK for high order page, but for order-0 pages, it misses the
optimization opportunity of using Per-Cpu-Pages and can cause zone lock
contention when called frequently.
Pawel Staszewski recently shared his result of 'how Linux kernel handles
normal traffic'[1] and from perf data, Jesper Dangaard Brouer found the
lock contention comes from page allocator:
mlx5e_poll_tx_cq
|
--16.34%--napi_consume_skb
|
|--12.65%--__free_pages_ok
| |
| --11.86%--free_one_page
| |
| |--10.10%--queued_spin_lock_slowpath
| |
| --0.65%--_raw_spin_lock
|
|--1.55%--page_frag_free
|
--1.44%--skb_release_data
Jesper explained how it happened: mlx5 driver RX-page recycle mechanism is
not effective in this workload and pages have to go through the page
allocator. The lock contention happens during mlx5 DMA TX completion
cycle. And the page allocator cannot keep up at these speeds.[2]
I thought that __free_pages_ok() are mostly freeing high order pages and
thought this is an lock contention for high order pages but Jesper
explained in detail that __free_pages_ok() here are actually freeing
order-0 pages because mlx5 is using order-0 pages to satisfy its page pool
allocation request.[3]
The free path as pointed out by Jesper is:
skb_free_head()
-> skb_free_frag()
-> page_frag_free()
And the pages being freed on this path are order-0 pages.
Fix this by doing similar things as in __page_frag_cache_drain() - send
the being freed page to PCP if it's an order-0 page, or directly to Buddy
if it is a high order page.
With this change, Paweł hasn't noticed lock contention yet in his
workload and Jesper has noticed a 7% performance improvement using a micro
benchmark and lock contention is gone. Ilias' test on a 'low' speed 1Gbit
interface on an cortex-a53 shows ~11% performance boost testing with
64byte packets and __free_pages_ok() disappeared from perf top.

Since a2468cc9bf ("swap: choose swap device according to numa node"),
avail_lists field of swap_info_struct is changed to an array with
MAX_NUMNODES elements. This made swap_info_struct size increased to 40KiB
and needs an order-4 page to hold it.
This is not optimal in that:
1 Most systems have way less than MAX_NUMNODES(1024) nodes so it
is a waste of memory;
2 It could cause swapon failure if the swap device is swapped on
after system has been running for a while, due to no order-4
page is available as pointed out by Vasily Averin.
Solve the above two issues by using nr_node_ids(which is the actual
possible node number the running system has) for avail_lists instead of
MAX_NUMNODES.
nr_node_ids is unknown at compile time so can't be directly used when
declaring this array. What I did here is to declare avail_lists as zero
element array and allocate space for it when allocating space for
swap_info_struct. The reason why keep using array but not pointer is
plist_for_each_entry needs the field to be part of the struct, so pointer
will not work.
This patch is on top of Vasily Averin's fix commit. I think the use of
kvzalloc for swap_info_struct is still needed in case nr_node_ids is
really big on some systems.

While the return value of node_reclaim() when CONFIG_NUMA is n is not

Per-cpu numa_node provides a default node for each possible cpu. The
association gets initialized during the boot when the architecture
specific code explores cpu->NUMA affinity. When the whole NUMA node is
removed though we are clearing this association
try_offline_node
check_and_unmap_cpu_on_node
unmap_cpu_on_node
numa_clear_node
numa_set_node(cpu, NUMA_NO_NODE)
This means that whoever calls cpu_to_node for a cpu associated with such a
node will get NUMA_NO_NODE. This is problematic for two reasons. First

on an older kernel but the code is basically the same in the current Linus
tree as well. alloc_vmcs_cpu could use alloc_pages_nodemask which would
recognize NUMA_NO_NODE and use alloc_pages_node which would translate it
to numa_mem_id but that is wrong as well because it would use a cpu
affinity of the local CPU which might be quite far from the original node.
It is also reasonable to expect that cpu_to_node will provide a sane
value and there might be many more callers like that.
The second problem is that __register_one_node relies on cpu_to_node to
properly associate cpus back to the node when it is onlined. We do not
want to lose that link as there is no arch independent way to get it from
the early boot time AFAICS.
Drop the whole check_and_unmap_cpu_on_node machinery and keep the
association to fix both issues. The NODE_DATA(nid) is not deallocated so
it will stay in place and if anybody wants to allocate from that node then
a fallback node will be used.
Thanks to Vlastimil Babka for his live system debugging skills that helped
debugging the issue.

We should get rid of this function. It no longer serves its purpose.
This is a historical artifact from 2005 where do_brk was called outside of
the core mm. We do have a proper abstraction in vm_brk_flags and that one
does the locking properly so there is no need to use this function.

which are not triggered by the memory hotplug but rather CMA allocator.
The original idea behind dumping the page state for all call paths was
that these messages will be helpful debugging failures. From the above it
seems that this is not the case for the CMA path because we are lacking
much more context. E.g the second reported page might be a CMA allocated
page. It is still interesting to see a slab page in the CMA area but it
is hard to tell whether this is bug from the above output alone.
Address this issue by dumping the page state only on request. Both
start_isolate_page_range and has_unmovable_pages already have an argument
to ignore hwpoison pages so make this argument more generic and turn it
into flags and allow callers to combine non-default modes into a mask.
While we are at it, has_unmovable_pages call from
is_pageblock_removable_nolock (sysfs removable file) is questionable to
report the failure so drop it from there as well.

There is only very limited information printed when the memory offlining
fails:
[ 1984.506184] rac1 kernel: memory offlining [mem 0x82600000000-0x8267fffffff] failed due to signal backoff
This tells us that the failure is triggered by the userspace intervention
but it doesn't tell us much more about the underlying reason. It might be
that the page migration failes repeatedly and the userspace timeout
expires and send a signal or it might be some of the earlier steps
(isolation, memory notifier) takes too long.
If the migration failes then it would be really helpful to see which page
that and its state. The same applies to the isolation phase. If we fail
to isolate a page from the allocator then knowing the state of the page
would be helpful as well.
Dump the page state that fails to get isolated or migrated. This will
tell us more about the failure and what to focus on during debugging.

The memory offlining failure reporting is inconsistent and insufficient.
Some error paths simply do not report the failure to the log at all. When
we do report there are no details about the reason of the failure and
there are several of them which makes memory offlining failures hard to
debug.
Make sure that the
memory offlining [mem %#010llx-%#010llx] failed
message is printed for all failures and also provide a short textual
reason for the failure e.g.
[ 1984.506184] rac1 kernel: memory offlining [mem 0x82600000000-0x8267fffffff] failed due to signal backoff
this tells us that the offlining has failed because of a signal pending

__dump_page messages use KERN_EMERG resp. KERN_ALERT loglevel (this is
the case since 2004). Most callers of this function are really detecting
a critical page state and BUG right after. On the other hand the function
is called also from contexts which just want to inform about the page
state and those would rather not disrupt logs that much (e.g. some
systems route these messages to the normal console).
Reduce the loglevel to KERN_WARNING to make dump_page easier to reuse for
other contexts while those messages will still make it to the kernel log
in most setups. Even if the loglevel setup filters warnings away those
paths that are really critical already print the more targeted error or
panic and that should make it to the kernel log.

I have been promissing to improve memory offlining failures debugging for
quite some time. As things stand now we get only very limited information
in the kernel log when the offlining fails. It is usually only
[ 1984.506184] rac1 kernel: memory offlining [mem 0x82600000000-0x8267fffffff] failed
with no further details. We do not know what exactly fails and for what
reason. Whenever I was forced to debug such a failure I've always had to
do a debugging patch to tell me more. We can enable some tracepoints but
it would be much better to get a better picture without using them.
This patch series does 2 things. The first one is to make dump_page more
usable by printing more information about the mapping patch 1. Then it
reduces the log level from emerg to warning so that this function is
usable from less critical context patch 2. Then I have added more
detailed information about the offlining failure patch 4 and finally add
dump_page to isolation and offlining migration paths. Patch 3 is a
trivial cleanup.
This patch (of 6):
__dump_page prints the mapping pointer but that is quite unhelpful for
many reports because the pointer itself only helps to distinguish anon/ksm
mappings from other ones (because of lowest bits set). Sometimes it would
be much more helpful to know what kind of mapping that is actually and if
we know this is a file mapping then also try to resolve the dentry name.

Tag-based KASAN doesn't check memory accesses through pointers tagged with
0xff. When page_address is used to get pointer to memory that corresponds
to some page, the tag of the resulting pointer gets set to 0xff, even
though the allocated memory might have been tagged differently.
For slab pages it's impossible to recover the correct tag to return from
page_address, since the page might contain multiple slab objects tagged
with different values, and we can't know in advance which one of them is
going to get accessed. For non slab pages however, we can recover the tag
in page_address, since the whole page was marked with the same tag.
This patch adds tagging to non slab memory allocated with pagealloc. To

This commit adds tag-based KASAN specific hooks implementation and
adjusts common generic and tag-based KASAN ones.
1. When a new slab cache is created, tag-based KASAN rounds up the size of
the objects in this cache to KASAN_SHADOW_SCALE_SIZE (== 16).
2. On each kmalloc tag-based KASAN generates a random tag, sets the shadow
memory, that corresponds to this object to this tag, and embeds this
tag value into the top byte of the returned pointer.
3. On each kfree tag-based KASAN poisons the shadow memory with a random
tag to allow detection of use-after-free bugs.
The rest of the logic of the hook implementation is very much similar to
the one provided by generic KASAN. Tag-based KASAN saves allocation and
free stack metadata to the slab object the same way generic KASAN does.

While with SLUB we can actually preassign tags for caches with contructors
and store them in pointers in the freelist, SLAB doesn't allow that since
the freelist is stored as an array of indexes, so there are no pointers to
store the tags.
Instead we compute the tag twice, once when a slab is created before
calling the constructor and then again each time when an object is
allocated with kmalloc. Tag is computed simply by taking the lowest byte
of the index that corresponds to the object. However in kasan_kmalloc we
only have access to the objects pointer, so we need a way to find out
which index this object corresponds to.
This patch moves obj_to_index from slab.c to include/linux/slab_def.h to
be reused by KASAN.

This commit adds rountines, that print tag-based KASAN error reports.
Those are quite similar to generic KASAN, the difference is:
1. The way tag-based KASAN finds the first bad shadow cell (with a
mismatching tag). Tag-based KASAN compares memory tags from the shadow
memory to the pointer tag.
2. Tag-based KASAN reports all bugs with the "KASAN: invalid-access"
header.
Also simplify generic KASAN find_first_bad_addr.

The krealloc function checks where the same buffer was reused or a new one
allocated by comparing kernel pointers. Tag-based KASAN changes memory
tag on the krealloc'ed chunk of memory and therefore also changes the
pointer tag of the returned pointer. Therefore we need to perform
comparison on untagged (with tags reset) pointers to check whether it's
the same memory region or not.

An object constructor can initialize pointers within this objects based on
the address of the object. Since the object address might be tagged, we
need to assign a tag before calling constructor.
The implemented approach is to assign tags to objects with constructors
when a slab is allocated and call constructors once as usual. The
downside is that such object would always have the same tag when it is
reallocated, so we won't catch use-after-frees on it.
Also pressign tags for objects from SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches, since
they can be validy accessed after having been freed.

This commit splits the current CONFIG_KASAN config option into two:
1. CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC, that enables the generic KASAN mode (the one
that exists now);
2. CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS, that enables the software tag-based KASAN mode.
The name CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS is chosen as in the future we will have
another hardware tag-based KASAN mode, that will rely on hardware memory
tagging support in arm64.
With CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS enabled, compiler options are changed to
instrument kernel files with -fsantize=kernel-hwaddress (except the ones
for which KASAN_SANITIZE := n is set).
Both CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC and CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS support both
CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE and CONFIG_KASAN_OUTLINE instrumentation modes.
This commit also adds empty placeholder (for now) implementation of
tag-based KASAN specific hooks inserted by the compiler and adjusts
common hooks implementation.
While this commit adds the CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS config option, this option
is not selectable, as it depends on HAVE_ARCH_KASAN_SW_TAGS, which we will
enable once all the infrastracture code has been added.

Patch series "kasan: add software tag-based mode for arm64", v13.
This patchset adds a new software tag-based mode to KASAN [1]. (Initially
this mode was called KHWASAN, but it got renamed, see the naming rationale
at the end of this section).
The plan is to implement HWASan [2] for the kernel with the incentive,
that it's going to have comparable to KASAN performance, but in the same
time consume much less memory, trading that off for somewhat imprecise bug
detection and being supported only for arm64.
The underlying ideas of the approach used by software tag-based KASAN are:
1. By using the Top Byte Ignore (TBI) arm64 CPU feature, we can store
pointer tags in the top byte of each kernel pointer.
2. Using shadow memory, we can store memory tags for each chunk of kernel
memory.
3. On each memory allocation, we can generate a random tag, embed it into
the returned pointer and set the memory tags that correspond to this
chunk of memory to the same value.
4. By using compiler instrumentation, before each memory access we can add
a check that the pointer tag matches the tag of the memory that is being
accessed.
5. On a tag mismatch we report an error.
With this patchset the existing KASAN mode gets renamed to generic KASAN,
with the word "generic" meaning that the implementation can be supported
by any architecture as it is purely software.
The new mode this patchset adds is called software tag-based KASAN. The
word "tag-based" refers to the fact that this mode uses tags embedded into
the top byte of kernel pointers and the TBI arm64 CPU feature that allows
to dereference such pointers. The word "software" here means that shadow
memory manipulation and tag checking on pointer dereference is done in
software. As it is the only tag-based implementation right now, "software
tag-based" KASAN is sometimes referred to as simply "tag-based" in this
patchset.
A potential expansion of this mode is a hardware tag-based mode, which
would use hardware memory tagging support (announced by Arm [3]) instead
of compiler instrumentation and manual shadow memory manipulation.
Same as generic KASAN, software tag-based KASAN is strictly a debugging
feature.

[3] https://community.arm.com/processors/b/blog/posts/arm-a-profile-architecture-2018-developments-armv85a
====== Rationale
On mobile devices generic KASAN's memory usage is significant problem.
One of the main reasons to have tag-based KASAN is to be able to perform a
similar set of checks as the generic one does, but with lower memory
requirements.
Comment from Vishwath Mohan <vishwath@google.com>:
I don't have data on-hand, but anecdotally both ASAN and KASAN have proven
problematic to enable for environments that don't tolerate the increased
memory pressure well. This includes
(a) Low-memory form factors - Wear, TV, Things, lower-tier phones like Go,
(c) Connected components like Pixel's visual core [1].
These are both places I'd love to have a low(er) memory footprint option at
my disposal.
Comment from Evgenii Stepanov <eugenis@google.com>:
Looking at a live Android device under load, slab (according to
/proc/meminfo) + kernel stack take 8-10% available RAM (~350MB). KASAN's
overhead of 2x - 3x on top of it is not insignificant.
Not having this overhead enables near-production use - ex. running
KASAN/KHWASAN kernel on a personal, daily-use device to catch bugs that do
not reproduce in test configuration. These are the ones that often cost
the most engineering time to track down.
CPU overhead is bad, but generally tolerable. RAM is critical, in our
experience. Once it gets low enough, OOM-killer makes your life
miserable.
[1] https://www.blog.google/products/pixel/pixel-visual-core-image-processing-and-machine-learning-pixel-2/
====== Technical details
Software tag-based KASAN mode is implemented in a very similar way to the
generic one. This patchset essentially does the following:
1. TCR_TBI1 is set to enable Top Byte Ignore.
2. Shadow memory is used (with a different scale, 1:16, so each shadow
byte corresponds to 16 bytes of kernel memory) to store memory tags.
3. All slab objects are aligned to shadow scale, which is 16 bytes.
4. All pointers returned from the slab allocator are tagged with a random
tag and the corresponding shadow memory is poisoned with the same value.
5. Compiler instrumentation is used to insert tag checks. Either by
calling callbacks or by inlining them (CONFIG_KASAN_OUTLINE and
CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE flags are reused).
6. When a tag mismatch is detected in callback instrumentation mode
KASAN simply prints a bug report. In case of inline instrumentation,
clang inserts a brk instruction, and KASAN has it's own brk handler,
which reports the bug.
7. The memory in between slab objects is marked with a reserved tag, and
acts as a redzone.
8. When a slab object is freed it's marked with a reserved tag.
Bug detection is imprecise for two reasons:
1. We won't catch some small out-of-bounds accesses, that fall into the
same shadow cell, as the last byte of a slab object.
2. We only have 1 byte to store tags, which means we have a 1/256
probability of a tag match for an incorrect access (actually even
slightly less due to reserved tag values).
Despite that there's a particular type of bugs that tag-based KASAN can
detect compared to generic KASAN: use-after-free after the object has been
allocated by someone else.
====== Testing
Some kernel developers voiced a concern that changing the top byte of
kernel pointers may lead to subtle bugs that are difficult to discover.
To address this concern deliberate testing has been performed.
It doesn't seem feasible to do some kind of static checking to find
potential issues with pointer tagging, so a dynamic approach was taken.
All pointer comparisons/subtractions have been instrumented in an LLVM
compiler pass and a kernel module that would print a bug report whenever
two pointers with different tags are being compared/subtracted (ignoring
comparisons with NULL pointers and with pointers obtained by casting an
error code to a pointer type) has been used. Then the kernel has been
booted in QEMU and on an Odroid C2 board and syzkaller has been run.
This yielded the following results.
The two places that look interesting are:
is_vmalloc_addr in include/linux/mm.h
is_kernel_rodata in mm/util.c
Here we compare a pointer with some fixed untagged values to make sure
that the pointer lies in a particular part of the kernel address space.
Since tag-based KASAN doesn't add tags to pointers that belong to rodata
or vmalloc regions, this should work as is. To make sure debug checks to
those two functions that check that the result doesn't change whether we
operate on pointers with or without untagging has been added.
A few other cases that don't look that interesting:
Comparing pointers to achieve unique sorting order of pointee objects
(e.g. sorting locks addresses before performing a double lock):
tty_ldisc_lock_pair_timeout in drivers/tty/tty_ldisc.c
pipe_double_lock in fs/pipe.c
unix_state_double_lock in net/unix/af_unix.c
lock_two_nondirectories in fs/inode.c
mutex_lock_double in kernel/events/core.c
ep_cmp_ffd in fs/eventpoll.c
fsnotify_compare_groups fs/notify/mark.c
Nothing needs to be done here, since the tags embedded into pointers
don't change, so the sorting order would still be unique.
Checks that a pointer belongs to some particular allocation:
is_sibling_entry in lib/radix-tree.c
object_is_on_stack in include/linux/sched/task_stack.h
Nothing needs to be done here either, since two pointers can only belong
to the same allocation if they have the same tag.
Overall, since the kernel boots and works, there are no critical bugs.
As for the rest, the traditional kernel testing way (use until fails) is
the only one that looks feasible.
Another point here is that tag-based KASAN is available under a separate
config option that needs to be deliberately enabled. Even though it might
be used in a "near-production" environment to find bugs that are not found
during fuzzing or running tests, it is still a debug tool.
====== Benchmarks
The following numbers were collected on Odroid C2 board. Both generic and
tag-based KASAN were used in inline instrumentation mode.
Boot time [1]:
* ~1.7 sec for clean kernel
* ~5.0 sec for generic KASAN
* ~5.0 sec for tag-based KASAN
Network performance [2]:
* 8.33 Gbits/sec for clean kernel
* 3.17 Gbits/sec for generic KASAN
* 2.85 Gbits/sec for tag-based KASAN
Slab memory usage after boot [3]:
* ~40 kb for clean kernel
* ~105 kb (~260% overhead) for generic KASAN
* ~47 kb (~20% overhead) for tag-based KASAN
KASAN memory overhead consists of three main parts:
1. Increased slab memory usage due to redzones.
2. Shadow memory (the whole reserved once during boot).
3. Quaratine (grows gradually until some preset limit; the more the limit,
the more the chance to detect a use-after-free).
Comparing tag-based vs generic KASAN for each of these points:
1. 20% vs 260% overhead.
2. 1/16th vs 1/8th of physical memory.
3. Tag-based KASAN doesn't require quarantine.
[1] Time before the ext4 driver is initialized.
[2] Measured as `iperf -s & iperf -c 127.0.0.1 -t 30`.
[3] Measured as `cat /proc/meminfo | grep Slab`.
====== Some notes
A few notes:
1. The patchset can be found here:
https://github.com/xairy/kasan-prototype/tree/khwasan
2. Building requires a recent Clang version (7.0.0 or later).
3. Stack instrumentation is not supported yet and will be added later.
This patch (of 25):
Tag-based KASAN changes the value of the top byte of pointers returned
from the kernel allocation functions (such as kmalloc). This patch
updates KASAN hooks signatures and their usage in SLAB and SLUB code to
reflect that.

kernel-side support to come later)
- Support for per-thread stack canaries, pending an update to GCC that
is currently undergoing review
- Support for kexec_file_load(), which permits secure boot of a kexec
payload but also happens to improve the performance of kexec
dramatically because we can avoid the sucky purgatory code from
userspace. Kdump will come later (requires updates to libfdt).
- Optimisation of our dynamic CPU feature framework, so that all
detected features are enabled via a single stop_machine() invocation
- KPTI whitelisting of Cortex-A CPUs unaffected by Meltdown, so that
they can benefit from global TLB entries when KASLR is not in use

The reason is we do not pass the Head to page_hstate(), and so, the call
to compound_order() in page_hstate() returns 0, so we end up checking
all hstates's size to match PAGE_SIZE.
Obviously, we do not find any hstate matching that size, and we return
NULL. Then, we dereference that NULL pointer in
hugepage_migration_supported() and we got the #PF from above.
Fix that by getting the head page before calling page_hstate().
Also, since gigantic pages span several pageblocks, re-adjust the logic
for skipping pages. While are it, we can also get rid of the
round_up().

When splitting a huge migrating PMD, we'll transfer all the existing PMD
bits and apply them again onto the small PTEs. However we are fetching
the bits unconditionally via pmd_soft_dirty(), pmd_write() or
pmd_yound() while actually they don't make sense at all when it's a
migration entry. Fix them up. Since at it, drop the ifdef together as
not needed.
Note that if my understanding is correct about the problem then if
without the patch there is chance to lose some of the dirty bits in the
migrating pmd pages (on x86_64 we're fetching bit 11 which is part of
swap offset instead of bit 2) and it could potentially corrupt the
memory of an userspace program which depends on the dirty bit.

root cause of the problem.
Move the VM_BUG_ON_PAGE tests earlier in the function so that if they do

This patch adds support for "high" userspace addresses that are
optionally supported on the system and have to be requested via a hint
mechanism ("high" addr parameter to mmap).
Architectures such as powerpc and x86 achieve this by making changes to
their architectural versions of arch_get_unmapped_* functions. However,
on arm64 we use the generic versions of these functions.
Rather than duplicate the generic arch_get_unmapped_* implementations
for arm64, this patch instead introduces two architectural helper macros
and applies them to arch_get_unmapped_*:
arch_get_mmap_end(addr) - get mmap upper limit depending on addr hint
arch_get_mmap_base(addr, base) - get mmap_base depending on addr hint
If these macros are not defined in architectural code then they default
to (TASK_SIZE) and (base) so should not introduce any behavioural
changes to architectures that do not define them.

This reverts commit 89c83fb539.
This should have been done as part of 2f0799a0ff ("mm, thp: restore
node-local hugepage allocations"). The movement of the thp allocation
policy from alloc_pages_vma() to alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask() was
intended to only set __GFP_THISNODE for mempolicies that are not
MPOL_BIND whereas the revert could set this regardless of mempolicy.
While the check for MPOL_BIND between alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask()
and alloc_pages_vma() was racy, that has since been removed since the
revert. What is left is the possibility to use __GFP_THISNODE in
policy_node() when it is unexpected because the special handling for
hugepages in alloc_pages_vma() was removed as part of the consolidation.
Secondly, prior to 89c83fb539, alloc_pages_vma() implemented a somewhat
different policy for hugepage allocations, which were allocated through
alloc_hugepage_vma(). For hugepage allocations, if the allocating
process's node is in the set of allowed nodes, allocate with
__GFP_THISNODE for that node (for MPOL_PREFERRED, use that node with
__GFP_THISNODE instead). This was changed for shmem_alloc_hugepage() to
allow fallback to other nodes in 89c83fb539 as it did for new_page() in
mm/mempolicy.c which is functionally different behavior and removes the
requirement to only allocate hugepages locally.
So this commit does a full revert of 89c83fb539 instead of the partial
revert that was done in 2f0799a0ff. The result is the same thp

This is a full revert of ac5b2c1891 ("mm: thp: relax __GFP_THISNODE for
MADV_HUGEPAGE mappings") and a partial revert of 89c83fb539 ("mm, thp:
consolidate THP gfp handling into alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask").
By not setting __GFP_THISNODE, applications can allocate remote hugepages
when the local node is fragmented or low on memory when either the thp
defrag setting is "always" or the vma has been madvised with
MADV_HUGEPAGE.
Remote access to hugepages often has much higher latency than local pages
of the native page size. On Haswell, ac5b2c1891 was shown to have a
13.9% access regression after this commit for binaries that remap their
text segment to be backed by transparent hugepages.
The intent of ac5b2c1891 is to address an issue where a local node is
low on memory or fragmented such that a hugepage cannot be allocated. In
every scenario where this was described as a fix, there is abundant and
unfragmented remote memory available to allocate from, even with a greater
access latency.
If remote memory is also low or fragmented, not setting __GFP_THISNODE was
also measured on Haswell to have a 40% regression in allocation latency.
Restore __GFP_THISNODE for thp allocations.

Internal to dax_unlock_mapping_entry(), dax_unlock_entry() is used to
store a replacement entry in the Xarray at the given xas-index with the
DAX_LOCKED bit clear. When called, dax_unlock_entry() expects the unlocked
value of the entry relative to the current Xarray state to be specified.
In most contexts dax_unlock_entry() is operating in the same scope as
the matched dax_lock_entry(). However, in the dax_unlock_mapping_entry()
case the implementation needs to recall the original entry. In the case
where the original entry is a 'pmd' entry it is possible that the pfn
performed to do the lookup is misaligned to the value retrieved in the
Xarray.
Change the api to return the unlock cookie from dax_lock_page() and pass
it to dax_unlock_page(). This fixes a bug where dax_unlock_page() was
assuming that the page was PMD-aligned if the entry was a PMD entry with
signatures like:

khugepaged's collapse_shmem() does almost all of its work, to assemble
the huge new_page from 512 scattered old pages, with the new_page's
refcount frozen to 0 (and refcounts of all old pages so far also frozen
to 0). Including shmem_getpage() to read in any which were out on swap,
memory reclaim if necessary to allocate their intermediate pages, and
copying over all the data from old to new.
Imagine the frozen refcount as a spinlock held, but without any lock
debugging to highlight the abuse: it's not good, and under serious load
heads into lockups - speculative getters of the page are not expecting
to spin while khugepaged is rescheduled.
One can get a little further under load by hacking around elsewhere; but
fortunately, freezing the new_page turns out to have been entirely
unnecessary, with no hacks needed elsewhere.
The huge new_page lock is already held throughout, and guards all its
subpages as they are brought one by one into the page cache tree; and
anything reading the data in that page, without the lock, before it has
been marked PageUptodate, would already be in the wrong. So simply
eliminate the freezing of the new_page.
Each of the old pages remains frozen with refcount 0 after it has been
replaced by a new_page subpage in the page cache tree, until they are
all unfrozen on success or failure: just as before. They could be
unfrozen sooner, but cause no problem once no longer visible to
find_get_entry(), filemap_map_pages() and other speculative lookups.

Huge tmpfs testing reminds us that there is no __GFP_ZERO in the gfp
flags khugepaged uses to allocate a huge page - in all common cases it
would just be a waste of effort - so collapse_shmem() must remember to
clear out any holes that it instantiates.
The obvious place to do so, where they are put into the page cache tree,
is not a good choice: because interrupts are disabled there. Leave it
until further down, once success is assured, where the other pages are
copied (before setting PageUptodate).

Huge tmpfs testing on a shortish file mapped into a pmd-rounded extent
hit shmem_evict_inode()'s WARN_ON(inode->i_blocks) followed by
clear_inode()'s BUG_ON(inode->i_data.nrpages) when the file was later
closed and unlinked.
khugepaged's collapse_shmem() was forgetting to update mapping->nrpages
on the rollback path, after it had added but then needs to undo some
holes.
There is indeed an irritating asymmetry between shmem_charge(), whose
callers want it to increment nrpages after successfully accounting
blocks, and shmem_uncharge(), when __delete_from_page_cache() already
decremented nrpages itself: oh well, just add a comment on that to them
both.
And shmem_recalc_inode() is supposed to be called when the accounting is
expected to be in balance (so it can deduce from imbalance that reclaim
discarded some pages): so change shmem_charge() to update nrpages
earlier (though it's rare for the difference to matter at all).

Huge tmpfs testing, on 32-bit kernel with lockdep enabled, showed that
__split_huge_page() was using i_size_read() while holding the irq-safe
lru_lock and page tree lock, but the 32-bit i_size_read() uses an
irq-unsafe seqlock which should not be nested inside them.
Instead, read the i_size earlier in split_huge_page_to_list(), and pass
the end offset down to __split_huge_page(): all while holding head page
lock, which is enough to prevent truncation of that extent before the
page tree lock has been taken.

Huge tmpfs stress testing has occasionally hit shmem_undo_range()'s
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_to_pgoff(page) != index, page).
Move the setting of mapping and index up before the page_ref_unfreeze()
in __split_huge_page_tail() to fix this: so that a page cache lookup
cannot get a reference while the tail's mapping and index are unstable.
In fact, might as well move them up before the smp_wmb(): I don't see an
actual need for that, but if I'm missing something, this way round is
safer than the other, and no less efficient.
You might argue that VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_to_pgoff(page) != index, page) is
misplaced, and should be left until after the trylock_page(); but left as
is has not crashed since, and gives more stringent assurance.

The term "freeze" is used in several ways in the kernel, and in mm it
has the particular meaning of forcing page refcount temporarily to 0.
freeze_page() is just too confusing a name for a function that unmaps a
page: rename it unmap_page(), and rename unfreeze_page() remap_page().
Went to change the mention of freeze_page() added later in mm/rmap.c,
but found it to be incorrect: ordinary page reclaim reaches there too;
but the substance of the comment still seems correct, so edit it down.

Set the page dirty if VM_WRITE is not set because in such case the pte

This was found by source review. Most apps (certainly including QEMU)
only use UFFDIO_COPY on PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE mappings or the app can't
modify the memory in the first place. This is for correctness and it
could help the non cooperative use case to avoid unexpected data loss.

Userfaultfd did not create private memory when UFFDIO_COPY was invoked
on a MAP_PRIVATE shmem mapping. Instead it wrote to the shmem file,
even when that had not been opened for writing. Though, fortunately,
that could only happen where there was a hole in the file.
Fix the shmem-backed implementation of UFFDIO_COPY to create private
memory for MAP_PRIVATE mappings. The hugetlbfs-backed implementation
was already correct.
This change is visible to userland, if userfaultfd has been used in
unintended ways: so it introduces a small risk of incompatibility, but
is necessary in order to respect file permissions.
An app that uses UFFDIO_COPY for anything like postcopy live migration
won't notice the difference, and in fact it'll run faster because there
will be no copy-on-write and memory waste in the tmpfs pagecache
anymore.
Userfaults on MAP_PRIVATE shmem keep triggering only on file holes like
before.
The real zeropage can also be built on a MAP_PRIVATE shmem mapping
through UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE and that's safe because the zeropage pte is
never dirty, in turn even an mprotect upgrading the vma permission from
PROT_READ to PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE won't make the zeropage pte writable.

Patch series "userfaultfd shmem updates".
Jann found two bugs in the userfaultfd shmem MAP_SHARED backend: the
lack of the VM_MAYWRITE check and the lack of i_size checks.
Then looking into the above we also fixed the MAP_PRIVATE case.
Hugh by source review also found a data loss source if UFFDIO_COPY is
used on shmem MAP_SHARED PROT_READ mappings (the production usages
incidentally run with PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, so the data loss couldn't
happen in those production usages like with QEMU).
The whole patchset is marked for stable.
We verified QEMU postcopy live migration with guest running on shmem
MAP_PRIVATE run as well as before after the fix of shmem MAP_PRIVATE.
Regardless if it's shmem or hugetlbfs or MAP_PRIVATE or MAP_SHARED, QEMU
unconditionally invokes a punch hole if the guest mapping is filebacked
and a MADV_DONTNEED too (needed to get rid of the MAP_PRIVATE COWs and
for the anon backend).
This patch (of 5):
We internally used EFAULT to communicate with the caller, switch to
ENOENT, so EFAULT can be used as a non internal retval.

init_currently_empty_zone() will adjust pgdat->nr_zones and set it to
'zone_idx(zone) + 1' unconditionally. This is correct in the normal
case, while not exact in hot-plug situation.
This function is used in two places:
* free_area_init_core()
* move_pfn_range_to_zone()
In the first case, we are sure zone index increase monotonically. While
in the second one, this is under users control.
One way to reproduce this is:
----------------------------
1. create a virtual machine with empty node1
-m 4G,slots=32,maxmem=32G \
-smp 4,maxcpus=8 \
-numa node,nodeid=0,mem=4G,cpus=0-3 \
-numa node,nodeid=1,mem=0G,cpus=4-7
2. hot-add cpu 3-7
cpu-add [3-7]
2. hot-add memory to nod1
object_add memory-backend-ram,id=ram0,size=1G
device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm0,memdev=ram0,node=1
3. online memory with following order
echo online_movable > memory47/state
echo online > memory40/state
After this, node1 will have its nr_zones equals to (ZONE_NORMAL + 1)
instead of (ZONE_MOVABLE + 1).
Michal said:
"Having an incorrect nr_zones might result in all sorts of problems
which would be quite hard to debug (e.g. reclaim not considering the
movable zone). I do not expect many users would suffer from this it
but still this is trivial and obviously right thing to do so
backporting to the stable tree shouldn't be harmful (last famous
words)"

If all pages are deleted from the mapping by memory reclaim and also
moved to the cleancache:
__delete_from_page_cache
(no shadow case)
unaccount_page_cache_page
cleancache_put_page
page_cache_delete
mapping->nrpages -= nr
(nrpages becomes 0)
We don't clean the cleancache for an inode after final file truncation
(removal).
truncate_inode_pages_final
check (nrpages || nrexceptional) is false
no truncate_inode_pages
no cleancache_invalidate_inode(mapping)
These way when reading the new file created with same inode we may get
these trash leftover pages from cleancache and see wrong data instead of
the contents of the new file.
Fix it by always doing truncate_inode_pages which is already ready for
nrpages == 0 && nrexceptional == 0 case and just invalidates inode.

Commit df06b37ffe ("mm/gup: cache dev_pagemap while pinning pages")
attempted to operate on each page that get_user_pages had retrieved. In
order to do that, it created a common exit point from the routine.
However, one case was missed, which this patch fixes up.
Also, there was still an unnecessary shadow declaration (with a
different type) of the "ret" variable, which this patch removes.
Keith's description of the situation is:
This also fixes a potentially leaked dev_pagemap reference count if a
failure occurs when an iteration crosses a vma boundary. I don't think
it's normal to have different vma's on a users mapped zone device
memory, but good to fix anyway.
I actually thought that this code:
/* first iteration or cross vma bound */
if (!vma || start >= vma->vm_end) {
vma = find_extend_vma(mm, start);
if (!vma && in_gate_area(mm, start)) {
ret = get_gate_page(mm, start & PAGE_MASK,
gup_flags, &vma,
pages ? &pages[i] : NULL);
if (ret)
goto out;
dealt with the "you're trying to pin the gate page, as part of this
call", rather than the generic case of crossing a vma boundary. (I
think there's a fine point that I must be overlooking.) But it's still a
valid case, either way.

Scan through the whole array to see if an update is needed. While we're
at it, use sizeof() to be safe against any possible type changes in the
future.
The bug here is that we wouldn't sync per-cpu counters into global ones
if there was an update of numa_stats for higher cpus. Highly
theoretical one though because it is much more probable that zone_stats
are updated so we would refresh anyway. So I wouldn't bother to mark
this for stable, yet something nice to fix.

Page state checks are racy. Under a heavy memory workload (e.g. stress
-m 200 -t 2h) it is quite easy to hit a race window when the page is
allocated but its state is not fully populated yet. A debugging patch to
dump the struct page state shows
has_unmovable_pages: pfn:0x10dfec00, found:0x1, count:0x0
page:ffffea0437fb0000 count:1 mapcount:1 mapping:ffff880e05239841 index:0x7f26e5000 compound_mapcount: 1
flags: 0x5fffffc0090034(uptodate|lru|active|head|swapbacked)
Note that the state has been checked for both PageLRU and PageSwapBacked
already. Closing this race completely would require some sort of retry
logic. This can be tricky and error prone (think of potential endless
or long taking loops).
Workaround this problem for movable zones at least. Such a zone should
only contain movable pages. Commit 15c30bc090 ("mm, memory_hotplug:
make has_unmovable_pages more robust") has told us that this is not
strictly true though. Bootmem pages should be marked reserved though so
we can move the original check after the PageReserved check. Pages from
other zones are still prone to races but we even do not pretend that
memory hotremove works for those so pre-mature failure doesn't hurt that
much.

This bug has been experienced several times by the Oracle DB team. The
BUG is in remove_inode_hugepages() as follows:
/*
* If page is mapped, it was faulted in after being
* unmapped in caller. Unmap (again) now after taking
* the fault mutex. The mutex will prevent faults
* until we finish removing the page.
*
* This race can only happen in the hole punch case.
* Getting here in a truncate operation is a bug.
*/
if (unlikely(page_mapped(page))) {
BUG_ON(truncate_op);
In this case, the elevated map count is not the result of a race.
Rather it was incorrectly incremented as the result of a bug in the huge
pmd sharing code. Consider the following:
- Process A maps a hugetlbfs file of sufficient size and alignment
(PUD_SIZE) that a pmd page could be shared.
- Process B maps the same hugetlbfs file with the same size and
alignment such that a pmd page is shared.
- Process B then calls mprotect() to change protections for the mapping
with the shared pmd. As a result, the pmd is 'unshared'.
- Process B then calls mprotect() again to chage protections for the
mapping back to their original value. pmd remains unshared.
- Process B then forks and process C is created. During the fork
process, we do dup_mm -> dup_mmap -> copy_page_range to copy page
tables. Copying page tables for hugetlb mappings is done in the
routine copy_hugetlb_page_range.
In copy_hugetlb_page_range(), the destination pte is obtained by:
dst_pte = huge_pte_alloc(dst, addr, sz);
If pmd sharing is possible, the returned pointer will be to a pte in an
existing page table. In the situation above, process C could share with
either process A or process B. Since process A is first in the list,
the returned pte is a pointer to a pte in process A's page table.
However, the check for pmd sharing in copy_hugetlb_page_range is:
/* If the pagetables are shared don't copy or take references */
if (dst_pte == src_pte)
continue;
Since process C is sharing with process A instead of process B, the
above test fails. The code in copy_hugetlb_page_range which follows
assumes dst_pte points to a huge_pte_none pte. It copies the pte entry
from src_pte to dst_pte and increments this map count of the associated

To solve, check the dst_pte entry for huge_pte_none. If !none, this
implies PMD sharing so do not copy.

Reclaim and free can race on an object which is basically fine but in
order for reclaim to be able to map "freed" object we need to encode
object length in the handle. handle_to_chunks() is then introduced to
extract object length from a handle and use it during mapping.
Moreover, to avoid racing on a z3fold "headless" page release, we should
not try to free that page in z3fold_free() if the reclaim bit is set.
Also, in the unlikely case of trying to reclaim a page being freed, we
should not proceed with that page.
While at it, fix the page accounting in reclaim function.
This patch supersedes "[PATCH] z3fold: fix reclaim lock-ups".

If we're polling for IO on a device that doesn't use interrupts, then
IO completion loop (and wake of task) is done by submitting task itself.
If that is the case, then we don't need to enter the wake_up_process()
function, we can simply mark ourselves as TASK_RUNNING.

The i915 driver uses shmemfs to allocate backing storage for gem
objects. These shmemfs pages can be pinned (increased ref count) by
shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp(). When a lot of pages are pinned, vmscan
wastes a lot of time scanning these pinned pages. In some extreme case,
all pages in the inactive anon lru are pinned, and only the inactive
anon lru is scanned due to inactive_ratio, the system cannot swap and
invokes the oom-killer. Mark these pinned pages as unevictable to speed
up vmscan.
Export pagevec API check_move_unevictable_pages().

THP allocation mode is quite complex and it depends on the defrag mode.
This complexity is hidden in alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask from a large
part currently. The NUMA special casing (namely __GFP_THISNODE) is
however independent and placed in alloc_pages_vma currently. This both
adds an unnecessary branch to all vma based page allocation requests and
it makes the code more complex unnecessarily as well. Not to mention
that e.g. shmem THP used to do the node reclaiming unconditionally
regardless of the defrag mode until recently. This was not only
unexpected behavior but it was also hardly a good default behavior and I
strongly suspect it was just a side effect of the code sharing more than
a deliberate decision which suggests that such a layering is wrong.
Get rid of the thp special casing from alloc_pages_vma and move the
logic to alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask. __GFP_THISNODE is applied to the
resulting gfp mask only when the direct reclaim is not requested and
when there is no explicit numa binding to preserve the current logic.
Please note that there's also a slight difference wrt MPOL_BIND now. The
previous code would avoid using __GFP_THISNODE if the local node was
outside of policy_nodemask(). After this patch __GFP_THISNODE is avoided
for all MPOL_BIND policies. So there's a difference that if local node
is actually allowed by the bind policy's nodemask, previously
__GFP_THISNODE would be added, but now it won't be. From the behavior
POV this is still correct because the policy nodemask is used.

The defrag mode is "madvise" and from the above report it is clear that
the THP has been allocated for MADV_HUGEPAGA vma.
Andrea has identified that the main source of the problem is
__GFP_THISNODE usage:
: The problem is that direct compaction combined with the NUMA
: __GFP_THISNODE logic in mempolicy.c is telling reclaim to swap very
: hard the local node, instead of failing the allocation if there's no
: THP available in the local node.
:
: Such logic was ok until __GFP_THISNODE was added to the THP allocation
: path even with MPOL_DEFAULT.
:
: The idea behind the __GFP_THISNODE addition, is that it is better to
: provide local memory in PAGE_SIZE units than to use remote NUMA THP
: backed memory. That largely depends on the remote latency though, on
: threadrippers for example the overhead is relatively low in my
: experience.
:
: The combination of __GFP_THISNODE and __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM results in
: extremely slow qemu startup with vfio, if the VM is larger than the
: size of one host NUMA node. This is because it will try very hard to
: unsuccessfully swapout get_user_pages pinned pages as result of the
: __GFP_THISNODE being set, instead of falling back to PAGE_SIZE
: allocations and instead of trying to allocate THP on other nodes (it
: would be even worse without vfio type1 GUP pins of course, except it'd
: be swapping heavily instead).
Fix this by removing __GFP_THISNODE for THP requests which are
requesting the direct reclaim. This effectivelly reverts 5265047ac3
on the grounds that the zone/node reclaim was known to be disruptive due
to premature reclaim when there was memory free. While it made sense at
the time for HPC workloads without NUMA awareness on rare machines, it
was ultimately harmful in the majority of cases. The existing behaviour
is similar, if not as widespare as it applies to a corner case but
crucially, it cannot be tuned around like zone_reclaim_mode can. The
default behaviour should always be to cause the least harm for the
common case.
If there are specialised use cases out there that want zone_reclaim_mode
in specific cases, then it can be built on top. Longterm we should
consider a memory policy which allows for the node reclaim like behavior
for the specific memory ranges which would allow a

Mel said:
: Both patches look correct to me but I'm responding to this one because
: it's the fix. The change makes sense and moves further away from the
: severe stalling behaviour we used to see with both THP and zone reclaim
: mode.
:
: I put together a basic experiment with usemem configured to reference a
: buffer multiple times that is 80% the size of main memory on a 2-socket
: box with symmetric node sizes and defrag set to "always". The defrag
: setting is not the default but it would be functionally similar to
: accessing a buffer with madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE). Usemem is configured to
: reference the buffer multiple times and while it's not an interesting
: workload, it would be expected to complete reasonably quickly as it fits
: within memory. The results were;
:
: usemem

: Amean Elapsd-1 42.78 ( 0.00%) 26.87 ( 37.18%)
: Amean Elapsd-3 27.55 ( 0.00%) 7.44 ( 73.00%)
: Amean Elapsd-4 5.72 ( 0.00%) 5.69 ( 0.45%)
:
: This shows the elapsed time in seconds for 1 thread, 3 threads and 4
: threads referencing buffers 80% the size of memory. With the patches
: applied, it's 37.18% faster for the single thread and 73% faster with two
: threads. Note that 4 threads showing little difference does not indicate
: the problem is related to thread counts. It's simply the case that 4
: threads gets spread so their workload mostly fits in one node.

:
: Writes from reclaim context is never good but the patch eliminates it.
:
: We should never have default behaviour to thrash the system for such a
: basic workload. If zone reclaim mode behaviour is ever desired but on a
: single task instead of a global basis then the sensible option is to build
: a mempolicy that enforces that behaviour.
This was a severe regression compared to previous kernels that made
important workloads unusable and it starts when __GFP_THISNODE was
added to THP allocations under MADV_HUGEPAGE. It is not a significant
risk to go to the previous behavior before __GFP_THISNODE was added, it
worked like that for years.
This was simply an optimization to some lucky workloads that can fit in
a single node, but it ended up breaking the VM for others that can't
possibly fit in a single node, so going back is safe.

Pull block layer fixes from Jens Axboe:
"The biggest part of this pull request is the revert of the blkcg
cleanup series. It had one fix earlier for a stacked device issue, but
another one was reported. Rather than play whack-a-mole with this,
revert the entire series and try again for the next kernel release.
Apart from that, only small fixes/changes.
Summary:
- Indentation fixup for mtip32xx (Colin Ian King)
- The blkcg cleanup series revert (Dennis Zhou)
- Two NVMe fixes. One fixing a regression in the nvme request
initialization in this merge window, causing nvme-fc to not work.
The other is a suspend/resume p2p resource issue (James, Keith)
- Fix sg discard merge, allowing us to merge in cases where we didn't

- Call rq_qos_exit() after the queue is frozen, preventing a hang
(Ming)
- Fix brd queue setup, fixing an oops if we fail setting up all
devices (Ming)"

Rework the vfs_clone_file_range and vfs_dedupe_file_range infrastructure to use
a common .remap_file_range method and supply generic bounds and sanity checking
functions that are shared with the data write path. The current VFS
infrastructure has problems with rlimit, LFS file sizes, file time stamps,
maximum filesystem file sizes, stripping setuid bits, etc and so they are
addressed in these commits.
We also introduce the ability for the ->remap_file_range methods to return short
clones so that clones for vfs_copy_file_range() don't get rejected if the entire
range can't be cloned. It also allows filesystems to sliently skip deduplication
of partial EOF blocks if they are not capable of doing so without requiring
errors to be thrown to userspace.
All existing filesystems are converted to user the new .remap_file_range method,
and both XFS and ocfs2 are modified to make use of the new generic checking
infrastructure.

Pull vfs dedup fixes from Dave Chinner:
"This reworks the vfs data cloning infrastructure.
We discovered many issues with these interfaces late in the 4.19 cycle
- the worst of them (data corruption, setuid stripping) were fixed for
XFS in 4.19-rc8, but a larger rework of the infrastructure fixing all
the problems was needed. That rework is the contents of this pull
request.
Rework the vfs_clone_file_range and vfs_dedupe_file_range
infrastructure to use a common .remap_file_range method and supply
generic bounds and sanity checking functions that are shared with the
data write path. The current VFS infrastructure has problems with
rlimit, LFS file sizes, file time stamps, maximum filesystem file
sizes, stripping setuid bits, etc and so they are addressed in these
commits.
We also introduce the ability for the ->remap_file_range methods to
return short clones so that clones for vfs_copy_file_range() don't get
rejected if the entire range can't be cloned. It also allows
filesystems to sliently skip deduplication of partial EOF blocks if
they are not capable of doing so without requiring errors to be thrown
to userspace.
Existing filesystems are converted to user the new remap_file_range
method, and both XFS and ocfs2 are modified to make use of the new
generic checking infrastructure"

This race results in WARN_ON from insert_pfn() and is occasionally
triggered by fstest generic/344. Note that the race is otherwise
harmless as before write(2) on CPU0 is finished, we will invalidate page
tables properly and thus user of mmap will see modified data from
write(2) from that point on. So just restrict the warning only to the
case when the PFN in PTE is not zero page.

There seem to be some problems as result of 30467e0b3b ("mm, hotplug:
fix concurrent memory hot-add deadlock"), which tried to fix a possible
lock inversion reported and discussed in [1] due to the two locks
a) device_lock()
b) mem_hotplug_lock
While add_memory() first takes b), followed by a) during
bus_probe_device(), onlining of memory from user space first took a),
followed by b), exposing a possible deadlock.
In [1], and it was decided to not make use of device_hotplug_lock, but
rather to enforce a locking order.
The problems I spotted related to this:
1. Memory block device attributes: While .state first calls
mem_hotplug_begin() and the calls device_online() - which takes
device_lock() - .online does no longer call mem_hotplug_begin(), so
effectively calls online_pages() without mem_hotplug_lock.
2. device_online() should be called under device_hotplug_lock, however
onlining memory during add_memory() does not take care of that.
In addition, I think there is also something wrong about the locking in
3. arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/memtrace.c calls offline_pages()
without locks. This was introduced after 30467e0b3b. And skimming over
the code, I assume it could need some more care in regards to locking
(e.g. device_online() called without device_hotplug_lock. This will
be addressed in the following patches.
Now that we hold the device_hotplug_lock when
- adding memory (e.g. via add_memory()/add_memory_resource())
- removing memory (e.g. via remove_memory())
- device_online()/device_offline()
We can move mem_hotplug_lock usage back into
online_pages()/offline_pages().
Why is mem_hotplug_lock still needed? Essentially to make
get_online_mems()/put_online_mems() be very fast (relying on
device_hotplug_lock would be very slow), and to serialize against
addition of memory that does not create memory block devices (hmm).
[1] http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/pipermail/ driverdev-devel/
2015-February/065324.html
This patch is partly based on a patch by Vitaly Kuznetsov.

add_memory() currently does not take the device_hotplug_lock, however
is aleady called under the lock from
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/hotplug-memory.c
drivers/acpi/acpi_memhotplug.c
to synchronize against CPU hot-remove and similar.
In general, we should hold the device_hotplug_lock when adding memory to
synchronize against online/offline request (e.g. from user space) - which
already resulted in lock inversions due to device_lock() and
mem_hotplug_lock - see 30467e0b3b ("mm, hotplug: fix concurrent memory
hot-add deadlock"). add_memory()/add_memory_resource() will create memory
block devices, so this really feels like the right thing to do.
Holding the device_hotplug_lock makes sure that a memory block device
can really only be accessed (e.g. via .online/.state) from user space,
once the memory has been fully added to the system.
The lock is not held yet in
drivers/xen/balloon.c
arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/memtrace.c
drivers/s390/char/sclp_cmd.c
drivers/hv/hv_balloon.c
So, let's either use the locked variants or take the lock.
Don't export add_memory_resource(), as it once was exported to be used by
XEN, which is never built as a module. If somebody requires it, we also
have to export a locked variant (as device_hotplug_lock is never
exported).

Patch series "mm: online/offline_pages called w.o. mem_hotplug_lock", v3.
Reading through the code and studying how mem_hotplug_lock is to be used,
I noticed that there are two places where we can end up calling
device_online()/device_offline() - online_pages()/offline_pages() without
the mem_hotplug_lock. And there are other places where we call
device_online()/device_offline() without the device_hotplug_lock.
While e.g.
echo "online" > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory9/state
is fine, e.g.
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory9/online
Will not take the mem_hotplug_lock. However the device_lock() and
device_hotplug_lock.
E.g. via memory_probe_store(), we can end up calling
add_memory()->online_pages() without the device_hotplug_lock. So we can
have concurrent callers in online_pages(). We e.g. touch in
online_pages() basically unprotected zone->present_pages then.
Looks like there is a longer history to that (see Patch #2 for details),
and fixing it to work the way it was intended is not really possible. We
would e.g. have to take the mem_hotplug_lock in device/base/core.c, which
sounds wrong.
Summary: We had a lock inversion on mem_hotplug_lock and device_lock().
More details can be found in patch 3 and patch 6.
I propose the general rules (documentation added in patch 6):
1. add_memory/add_memory_resource() must only be called with
device_hotplug_lock.
2. remove_memory() must only be called with device_hotplug_lock. This is
already documented and holds for all callers.
3. device_online()/device_offline() must only be called with
device_hotplug_lock. This is already documented and true for now in core
code. Other callers (related to memory hotplug) have to be fixed up.
4. mem_hotplug_lock is taken inside of add_memory/remove_memory/
online_pages/offline_pages.
To me, this looks way cleaner than what we have right now (and easier to
verify). And looking at the documentation of remove_memory, using
lock_device_hotplug also for add_memory() feels natural.
This patch (of 6):
remove_memory() is exported right now but requires the
device_hotplug_lock, which is not exported. So let's provide a variant
that takes the lock and only export that one.
The lock is already held in
arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/hotplug-memory.c
drivers/acpi/acpi_memhotplug.c
arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/memtrace.c
Apart from that, there are not other users in the tree.

When a memblock allocation APIs are called with align = 0, the alignment
is implicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES.
Implicit alignment is done deep in the memblock allocator and it can
come as a surprise. Not that such an alignment would be wrong even
when used incorrectly but it is better to be explicit for the sake of
clarity and the prinicple of the least surprise.
Replace all such uses of memblock APIs with the 'align' parameter
explicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES and stop implicit alignment assignment
in the memblock internal allocation functions.
For the case when memblock APIs are used via helper functions, e.g. like
iommu_arena_new_node() in Alpha, the helper functions were detected with
Coccinelle's help and then manually examined and updated where
appropriate.
The direct memblock APIs users were updated using the semantic patch below:

Change the remap_file_range functions to take a number of bytes to
operate upon and return the number of bytes they operated on. This is a
requirement for allowing fs implementations to return short clone/dedupe
results to the user, which will enable us to obey resource limits in a
graceful manner.
A subsequent patch will enable copy_file_range to signal to the
->clone_file_range implementation that it can handle a short length,
which will be returned in the function's return value. For now the
short return is not implemented anywhere so the behavior won't change --
either copy_file_range manages to clone the entire range or it tries an
alternative.
Neither clone ioctl can take advantage of this, alas.

File range remapping, if allowed to run past the destination file's EOF,
is an optimization on a regular file write. Regular file writes that
extend the file length are subject to various constraints which are not
checked by range cloning.
This is a correctness problem because we're never allowed to touch
ranges that the page cache can't support (s_maxbytes); we're not
supposed to deal with large offsets (MAX_NON_LFS) if O_LARGEFILE isn't
set; and we must obey resource limits (RLIMIT_FSIZE).
Therefore, add these checks to the new generic_remap_checks function so
that we curtail unexpected behavior.

Pull XArray conversion from Matthew Wilcox:
"The XArray provides an improved interface to the radix tree data
structure, providing locking as part of the API, specifying GFP flags
at allocation time, eliminating preloading, less re-walking the tree,
more efficient iterations and not exposing RCU-protected pointers to
its users.
This patch set
1. Introduces the XArray implementation
2. Converts the pagecache to use it
3. Converts memremap to use it
The page cache is the most complex and important user of the radix
tree, so converting it was most important. Converting the memremap
code removes the only other user of the multiorder code, which allows
us to remove the radix tree code that supported it.
I have 40+ followup patches to convert many other users of the radix
tree over to the XArray, but I'd like to get this part in first. The
other conversions haven't been in linux-next and aren't suitable for
applying yet, but you can see them in the xarray-conv branch if you're
interested"

Some test systems were experiencing negative huge page reserve counts and
incorrect file block counts. This was traced to /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
removing clean pages from hugetlbfs file pagecaches. When non-hugetlbfs
explicit code removes the pages, the appropriate accounting is not
performed.
This can be recreated as follows:
fallocate -l 2M /dev/hugepages/foo
echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
fallocate -l 2M /dev/hugepages/foo
grep -i huge /proc/meminfo

ls -lsh /dev/hugepages/foo
4.0M -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 2.0M Oct 17 20:05 /dev/hugepages/foo
To address this issue, dirty pages as they are added to pagecache. This
can easily be reproduced with fallocate as shown above. Read faulted
pages will eventually end up being marked dirty. But there is a window
where they are clean and could be impacted by code such as drop_caches.

Btrfs currently does not support swap files because swap's use of bmap
does not work with copy-on-write and multiple devices. See 35054394c4
("Btrfs: stop providing a bmap operation to avoid swapfile corruptions").
However, the swap code has a mechanism for the filesystem to manually add
swap extents using add_swap_extent() from the ->swap_activate() aop.
iomap has done this since 67482129cd ("iomap: add a swapfile activation
function"). Btrfs will do the same in a later patch, so export
add_swap_extent().

The SWP_FILE flag serves two purposes: to make swap_{read,write}page() go
through the filesystem, and to make swapoff() call ->swap_deactivate().
For Btrfs, we want the latter but not the former, so split this flag into
two. This makes us always call ->swap_deactivate() if ->swap_activate()
succeeded, not just if it didn't add any swap extents itself.
This also resolves the issue of the very misleading name of SWP_FILE,
which is only used for swap files over NFS.

There should be no cache left by the time we overwrite the old transhuge
pmd with the new one. It's already too late to flush through the virtual
address because we already copied the page data to the new physical
address.
So flush the cache before the data copy.
Also delete the "end" variable to shutoff a "unused variable" warning on
x86 where flush_cache_range() is a noop.

change_huge_pmd() after arming the numa/protnone pmd doesn't flush the TLB
right away. do_huge_pmd_numa_page() flushes the TLB before calling
migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page(). By the time do_huge_pmd_numa_page()
runs some CPU could still access the page through the TLB.
change_huge_pmd() before arming the numa/protnone transhuge pmd calls
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start(). So there's no need of
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()/mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_only_end()
sequence in migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() too, because by the time
migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() runs, the pmd mapping has already been
invalidated in the secondary MMUs. It has to or if a secondary MMU can
still write to the page, the migrate_page_copy() would lose data.
However an explicit mmu_notifier_invalidate_range() is needed before
migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() starts copying the data of the
transhuge page or the below can happen for MMU notifier users sharing the
primary MMU pagetables and only implementing ->invalidate_range:
CPU0 CPU1 GPU sharing linux pagetables using
only ->invalidate_range
----------- ------------ ---------
GPU secondary MMU writes to the page
mapped by the transhuge pmd
change_pmd_range()
mmu..._range_start()
->invalidate_range_start() noop
change_huge_pmd()
set_pmd_at(numa/protnone)
pmd_unlock()
do_huge_pmd_numa_page()
CPU TLB flush globally (1)
CPU cannot write to page
migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page()
GPU writes to the page...
migrate_page_copy()
...GPU stops writing to the page
CPU TLB flush (2)
mmu..._range_end() (3)
->invalidate_range_stop() noop
->invalidate_range()
GPU secondary MMU is invalidated
and cannot write to the page anymore
(too late)
Just like we need a CPU TLB flush (1) because the TLB flush (2) arrives
too late, we also need a mmu_notifier_invalidate_range() before calling
migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page(), because the ->invalidate_range() in
(3) also arrives too late.
This requirement is the result of the lazy optimization in
change_huge_pmd() that releases the pmd_lock without first flushing the
TLB and without first calling mmu_notifier_invalidate_range().
Even converting the removed mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_only_end() into
a mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end() would not have been enough to fix
this, because it run after migrate_page_copy().
After the hugepage data copy is done migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page()
can proceed and call set_pmd_at without having to flush the TLB nor any
secondary MMUs because the secondary MMU invalidate, just like the CPU TLB
flush, has to happen before the migrate_page_copy() is called or it would
be a bug in the first place (and it was for drivers using
->invalidate_range()).
KVM is unaffected because it doesn't implement ->invalidate_range().
The standard PAGE_SIZEd migrate_misplaced_page is less accelerated and
uses the generic migrate_pages which transitions the pte from
numa/protnone to a migration entry in try_to_unmap_one() and flushes TLBs
and all mmu notifiers there before copying the page.

Patch series "migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page race conditions".
Aaron found a new instance of the THP MADV_DONTNEED race against
pmdp_clear_flush* variants, that was apparently left unfixed.
While looking into the race found by Aaron, I may have found two more
issues in migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page.
These race conditions would not cause kernel instability, but they'd
corrupt userland data or leave data non zero after MADV_DONTNEED.
I did only minor testing, and I don't expect to be able to reproduce this
(especially the lack of ->invalidate_range before migrate_page_copy,
requires the latest iommu hardware or infiniband to reproduce). The last
patch is noop for x86 and it needs further review from maintainers of
archs that implement flush_cache_range() (not in CC yet).
To avoid confusion, it's not the first patch that introduces the bug fixed
in the second patch, even before removing the
pmdp_huge_clear_flush_notify, that _notify suffix was called after
migrate_page_copy already run.
This patch (of 3):
This is a corollary of ced108037c ("thp: fix MADV_DONTNEED vs. numa
balancing race"), 58ceeb6bec ("thp: fix MADV_DONTNEED vs. MADV_FREE
race") and 5b7abeae3a ("thp: fix MADV_DONTNEED vs clear soft dirty
race).
When the above three fixes where posted Dave asked
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/929b3844-aec2-0111-fef7-8002f9d4e2b9@intel.com
but apparently this was missed.
The pmdp_clear_flush* in migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() was introduced
in a54a407fbf ("mm: Close races between THP migration and PMD numa
clearing").
The important part of such commit is only the part where the page lock is
not released until the first do_huge_pmd_numa_page() finished disarming
the pagenuma/protnone.
The addition of pmdp_clear_flush() wasn't beneficial to such commit and
there's no commentary about such an addition either.
I guess the pmdp_clear_flush() in such commit was added just in case for
safety, but it ended up introducing the MADV_DONTNEED race condition found
by Aaron.
At that point in time nobody thought of such kind of MADV_DONTNEED race
conditions yet (they were fixed later) so the code may have looked more
robust by adding the pmdp_clear_flush().
This specific race condition won't destabilize the kernel, but it can
confuse userland because after MADV_DONTNEED the memory won't be zeroed
out.
This also optimizes the code and removes a superfluous TLB flush.

The static lock quarantine_lock is used in quarantine.c to protect the
quarantine queue datastructures. It is taken inside quarantine queue
manipulation routines (quarantine_put(), quarantine_reduce() and
quarantine_remove_cache()), with IRQs disabled. This is not a problem on
a stock kernel but is problematic on an RT kernel where spin locks are
sleeping spinlocks, which can sleep and can not be acquired with disabled
interrupts.
Convert the quarantine_lock to a raw spinlock_t. The usage of
quarantine_lock is confined to quarantine.c and the work performed while
the lock is held is used for debug purpose.

Getting pages from ZONE_DEVICE memory needs to check the backing device's
live-ness, which is tracked in the device's dev_pagemap metadata. This
metadata is stored in a radix tree and looking it up adds measurable
software overhead.
This patch avoids repeating this relatively costly operation when
dev_pagemap is used by caching the last dev_pagemap while getting user
pages. The gup_benchmark kernel self test reports this reduces time to
get user pages to as low as 1/3 of the previous time.

to verify that pfns within pageblock_nr_pages ranges are valid, only the

Patch series "mm: Fix for movable_node boot option", v3.
This patch series contains a fix for the movable_node boot option issue
which was introduced by commit 124049decb ("x86/e820: put !E820_TYPE_RAM
regions into memblock.reserved").
The commit breaks the option because it changed the memory gap range to
reserved memblock. So, the node is marked as Normal zone even if the SRAT
has Hot pluggable affinity.
First and second patch fix the original issue which the commit tried to
fix, then revert the commit.

According to kernel bisection, this problem became visible due to commit
f7f99100d8 which changes how struct pages are initialized.
Memblock layout affects the pfn ranges covered by node/zone. Consider
that we have a VM with 2 NUMA nodes and each node has 4GB memory, and the
default (no memmap= given) memblock layout is like below:
MEMBLOCK configuration:
memory size = 0x00000001fff75c00 reserved size = 0x000000000300c000
memory.cnt = 0x4
memory[0x0] [0x0000000000001000-0x000000000009efff], 0x000000000009e000 bytes on node 0 flags: 0x0
memory[0x1] [0x0000000000100000-0x00000000bffd6fff], 0x00000000bfed7000 bytes on node 0 flags: 0x0
memory[0x2] [0x0000000100000000-0x000000013fffffff], 0x0000000040000000 bytes on node 0 flags: 0x0
memory[0x3] [0x0000000140000000-0x000000023fffffff], 0x0000000100000000 bytes on node 1 flags: 0x0
...
If you give memmap=1G!4G (so it just covers memory[0x2]),
the range [0x100000000-0x13fffffff] is gone:
MEMBLOCK configuration:
memory size = 0x00000001bff75c00 reserved size = 0x000000000300c000
memory.cnt = 0x3
memory[0x0] [0x0000000000001000-0x000000000009efff], 0x000000000009e000 bytes on node 0 flags: 0x0
memory[0x1] [0x0000000000100000-0x00000000bffd6fff], 0x00000000bfed7000 bytes on node 0 flags: 0x0
memory[0x2] [0x0000000140000000-0x000000023fffffff], 0x0000000100000000 bytes on node 1 flags: 0x0
...
This causes shrinking node 0's pfn range because it is calculated by the
address range of memblock.memory. So some of struct pages in the gap
range are left uninitialized.
We have a function zero_resv_unavail() which does zeroing the struct pages
outside memblock.memory, but currently it covers only the reserved
unavailable range (i.e. memblock.memory && !memblock.reserved). This
patch extends it to cover all unavailable range, which fixes the reported
issue.

It was reported that on some of our machines containers were restarted
with OOM symptoms without an obvious reason. Despite there were almost no
memory pressure and plenty of page cache, MEMCG_OOM event was raised
occasionally, causing the container management software to think, that OOM
has happened. However, no tasks have been killed.
The following investigation showed that the problem is caused by a failing
attempt to charge a high-order page. In such case, the OOM killer is
never invoked. As shown below, it can happen under conditions, which are
very far from a real OOM: e.g. there is plenty of clean page cache and no
memory pressure.
There is no sense in raising an OOM event in this case, as it might
confuse a user and lead to wrong and excessive actions (e.g. restart the
workload, as in my case).
Let's look at the charging path in try_charge(). If the memory usage is
about memory.max, which is absolutely natural for most memory cgroups, we
try to reclaim some pages. Even if we were able to reclaim enough memory
for the allocation, the following check can fail due to a race with
another concurrent allocation:
if (mem_cgroup_margin(mem_over_limit) >= nr_pages)
goto retry;
For regular pages the following condition will save us from triggering
the OOM:
if (nr_reclaimed && nr_pages <= (1 << PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER))
goto retry;
But for high-order allocation this condition will intentionally fail. The
reason behind is that we'll likely fall to regular pages anyway, so it's
ok and even preferred to return ENOMEM.
In this case the idea of raising MEMCG_OOM looks dubious.
Fix this by moving MEMCG_OOM raising to mem_cgroup_oom() after allocation
order check, so that the event won't be raised for high order allocations.
This change doesn't affect regular pages allocation and charging.

DEADLOCK because:
- process 1 needs page 2 writeback to complete to make
enough progress to issue IO pending for page 1
- writeback needs page 1 writeback to complete so process 2
can progress and unlock the page it is blocked on, then it
can issue the IO pending for page 2
- process 2 can't make progress until process 1 issues IO
for page 1
The underlying cause of the problem here is that range_cyclic writeback is
processing pages in descending index order as we hold higher index pages
in a structure controlled from above write_cache_pages(). The
write_cache_pages() caller needs to be able to submit these pages for IO
before write_cache_pages restarts writeback at mapping index 0 to avoid
wcp inverting the page lock/writeback wait order.
generic_writepages() is not susceptible to this bug as it has no private
context held across write_cache_pages() - filesystems using this
infrastructure always submit pages in ->writepage immediately and so there
is no problem with range_cyclic going back to mapping index 0.
However:
mpage_writepages() has a private bio context,
exofs_writepages() has page_collect
fuse_writepages() has fuse_fill_wb_data
nfs_writepages() has nfs_pageio_descriptor
xfs_vm_writepages() has xfs_writepage_ctx
All of these ->writepages implementations can hold pages under writeback
in their private structures until write_cache_pages() returns, and hence
they are all susceptible to this deadlock.
Also worth noting is that ext4 has it's own bastardised version of
write_cache_pages() and so it /may/ have an equivalent deadlock. I looked
at the code long enough to understand that it has a similar retry loop for
range_cyclic writeback reaching the end of the file and then promptly ran
away before my eyes bled too much. I'll leave it for the ext4 developers
to determine if their code is actually has this deadlock and how to fix it
if it has.
There's a few ways I can see avoid this deadlock. There's probably more,
but these are the first I've though of:
1. get rid of range_cyclic altogether
2. range_cyclic always stops at EOF, and we start again from
writeback index 0 on the next call into write_cache_pages()
2a. wcp also returns EAGAIN to ->writepages implementations to
indicate range cyclic has hit EOF. writepages implementations can
then flush the current context and call wpc again to continue. i.e.
lift the retry into the ->writepages implementation
3. range_cyclic uses trylock_page() rather than lock_page(), and it
skips pages it can't lock without blocking. It will already do this
for pages under writeback, so this seems like a no-brainer
3a. all non-WB_SYNC_ALL writeback uses trylock_page() to avoid
blocking as per pages under writeback.
I don't think #1 is an option - range_cyclic prevents frequently
dirtied lower file offset from starving background writeback of
rarely touched higher file offsets.
#2 is simple, and I don't think it will have any impact on
performance as going back to the start of the file implies an
immediate seek. We'll have exactly the same number of seeks if we
switch writeback to another inode, and then come back to this one
later and restart from index 0.
#2a is pretty much "status quo without the deadlock". Moving the
retry loop up into the wcp caller means we can issue IO on the
pending pages before calling wcp again, and so avoid locking or
waiting on pages in the wrong order. I'm not convinced we need to do
this given that we get the same thing from #2 on the next writeback
call from the writeback infrastructure.
#3 is really just a band-aid - it doesn't fix the access/wait
inversion problem, just prevents it from becoming a deadlock
situation. I'd prefer we fix the inversion, not sweep it under the
carpet like this.
#3a is really an optimisation that just so happens to include the
band-aid fix of #3.
So it seems that the simplest way to fix this issue is to implement
solution #2

If move_freepages_block() returns 0 because !zone_spans_pfn(),
*num_movable can hold the value from the stack because it does not get

Move the initialization to move_freepages_block() to guarantee the value

This currently doesn't affect its only caller where num_movable != NULL,
so no bug fix, but just more robust.

brk might be used to shrink memory mapping too other than munmap(). So,
it may hold write mmap_sem for long time when shrinking large mapping, as

The brk() will not manipulate vmas anymore after __do_munmap() call for
the mapping shrink use case. But, it may set mm->brk after __do_munmap(),
which needs hold write mmap_sem.
However, a simple trick can workaround this by setting mm->brk before
__do_munmap(). Then restore the original value if __do_munmap() fails.
With this trick, it is safe to downgrade to read mmap_sem.
So, the same optimization, which downgrades mmap_sem to read for zapping
pages, is also feasible and reasonable to this case.
The period of holding exclusive mmap_sem for shrinking large mapping would
be reduced significantly with this optimization.

The ZONE_DEVICE pages were being initialized in two locations. One was
with the memory_hotplug lock held and another was outside of that lock.
The problem with this is that it was nearly doubling the memory
initialization time. Instead of doing this twice, once while holding a
global lock and once without, I am opting to defer the initialization to
the one outside of the lock. This allows us to avoid serializing the
overhead for memory init and we can instead focus on per-node init times.
One issue I encountered is that devm_memremap_pages and
hmm_devmmem_pages_create were initializing only the pgmap field the same
way. One wasn't initializing hmm_data, and the other was initializing it
to a poison value. Since this is something that is exposed to the driver
in the case of hmm I am opting for a third option and just initializing
hmm_data to 0 since this is going to be exposed to unknown third party
drivers.

It doesn't make much sense to use the atomic SetPageReserved at init time
when we are using memset to clear the memory and manipulating the page
flags via simple "&=" and "|=" operations in __init_single_page.
This patch adds a non-atomic version __SetPageReserved that can be used
during page init and shows about a 10% improvement in initialization times
on the systems I have available for testing. On those systems I saw
initialization times drop from around 35 seconds to around 32 seconds to
initialize a 3TB block of persistent memory. I believe the main advantage
of this is that it allows for more compiler optimization as the __set_bit
operation can be reordered whereas the atomic version cannot.
I tried adding a bit of documentation based on f1dd2cd13c ("mm,
memory_hotplug: do not associate hotadded memory to zones until online").
Ideally the reserved flag should be set earlier since there is a brief
window where the page is initialization via __init_single_page and we have
not set the PG_Reserved flag. I'm leaving that for a future patch set as
that will require a more significant refactor.

Patch series "Address issues slowing persistent memory initialization", v5.
The main thing this patch set achieves is that it allows us to initialize
each node worth of persistent memory independently. As a result we reduce
page init time by about 2 minutes because instead of taking 30 to 40
seconds per node and going through each node one at a time, we process all
4 nodes in parallel in the case of a 12TB persistent memory setup spread
evenly over 4 nodes.
This patch (of 3):
On systems with a large amount of memory it can take a significant amount
of time to initialize all of the page structs with the PAGE_POISON_PATTERN
value. I have seen it take over 2 minutes to initialize a system with
over 12TB of RAM.
In order to work around the issue I had to disable CONFIG_DEBUG_VM and
then the boot time returned to something much more reasonable as the
arch_add_memory call completed in milliseconds versus seconds. However in
doing that I had to disable all of the other VM debugging on the system.
In order to work around a kernel that might have CONFIG_DEBUG_VM enabled
on a system that has a large amount of memory I have added a new kernel
parameter named "vm_debug" that can be set to "-" in order to disable it.

This patch, as the previous one, gets rid of the wrong if statements.
While at it, I realized that the comments are sometimes very confusing,
to say the least, and wrong.
For example:
___
zone_last = ZONE_MOVABLE;
/*
* check whether node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] will be changed
* If we try to offline the last present @nr_pages from the node,
* we can determind we will need to clear the node from
* node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY].
*/
for (; zt <= zone_last; zt++)
present_pages += pgdat->node_zones[zt].present_pages;
if (nr_pages >= present_pages)
arg->status_change_nid = zone_to_nid(zone);
else
arg->status_change_nid = -1;
___
In case the node gets empry, it must be removed from N_MEMORY. We already
check N_HIGH_MEMORY a bit above within the CONFIG_HIGHMEM ifdef code. Not
to say that status_change_nid is for N_MEMORY, and not for N_HIGH_MEMORY.
So I re-wrote some of the comments to what I think is better.

Right after entering the function, we find this:

zone_last = ZONE_MOVABLE;
This is wrong.
N_MEMORY cannot really be equal to N_NORMAL_MEMORY.
My guess is that this wanted to be something like:
if (N_NORMAL_MEMORY == N_HIGH_MEMORY)
to check if we have CONFIG_HIGHMEM.
Later on, in the CONFIG_HIGHMEM block, we have:
if (N_MEMORY == N_HIGH_MEMORY)
zone_last = ZONE_MOVABLE;
Again, this is wrong, and will never be evaluated to true.
Besides removing these wrong if statements, I simplified the function a

In node_states_check_changes_online, we check if the node will have to be
set for any of the N_*_MEMORY states after the pages have been onlined.
Later on, we perform the activation in node_states_set_node. Currently,
in node_states_set_node we set the node to N_MEMORY unconditionally.
This means that we call node_set_state for N_MEMORY every time pages go
online, but we only need to do it if the node has not yet been set for
N_MEMORY.
Fix this by checking status_change_nid.

Patch series "mm: zap pages with read mmap_sem in munmap for large
mapping", v11.
Background:
Recently, when we ran some vm scalability tests on machines with large memory,
we ran into a couple of mmap_sem scalability issues when unmapping large memory
space, please refer to https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/12/14/733 and
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/2/20/576.
History:
Then akpm suggested to unmap large mapping section by section and drop mmap_sem
at a time to mitigate it (see https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/3/6/784).
V1 patch series was submitted to the mailing list per Andrew's suggestion
(see https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/3/20/786). Then I received a lot great
feedback and suggestions.
Then this topic was discussed on LSFMM summit 2018. In the summit, Michal
Hocko suggested (also in the v1 patches review) to try "two phases"
approach. Zapping pages with read mmap_sem, then doing via cleanup with
write mmap_sem (for discussion detail, see
https://lwn.net/Articles/753269/)
Approach:
Zapping pages is the most time consuming part, according to the suggestion from
Michal Hocko [1], zapping pages can be done with holding read mmap_sem, like
what MADV_DONTNEED does. Then re-acquire write mmap_sem to cleanup vmas.
But, we can't call MADV_DONTNEED directly, since there are two major drawbacks:
* The unexpected state from PF if it wins the race in the middle of munmap.
It may return zero page, instead of the content or SIGSEGV.
* Can't handle VM_LOCKED | VM_HUGETLB | VM_PFNMAP and uprobe mappings, which
is a showstopper from akpm
But, some part may need write mmap_sem, for example, vma splitting. So,
the design is as follows:
acquire write mmap_sem
lookup vmas (find and split vmas)
deal with special mappings
detach vmas
downgrade_write
zap pages
free page tables
release mmap_sem
The vm events with read mmap_sem may come in during page zapping, but
since vmas have been detached before, they, i.e. page fault, gup, etc,
will not be able to find valid vma, then just return SIGSEGV or -EFAULT as
expected.
If the vma has VM_HUGETLB | VM_PFNMAP, they are considered as special
mappings. They will be handled by falling back to regular do_munmap()
with exclusive mmap_sem held in this patch since they may update vm flags.
But, with the "detach vmas first" approach, the vmas have been detached
when vm flags are updated, so it sounds safe to update vm flags with read
mmap_sem for this specific case. So, VM_HUGETLB and VM_PFNMAP will be
handled by using the optimized path in the following separate patches for
bisectable sake.
Unmapping uprobe areas may need update mm flags (MMF_RECALC_UPROBES).
However it is fine to have false-positive MMF_RECALC_UPROBES according to
uprobes developer. So, uprobe unmap will not be handled by the regular
path.
With the "detach vmas first" approach we don't have to re-acquire mmap_sem
again to clean up vmas to avoid race window which might get the address
space changed since downgrade_write() doesn't release the lock to lead
regression, which simply downgrades to read lock.
And, since the lock acquire/release cost is managed to the minimum and
almost as same as before, the optimization could be extended to any size
of mapping without incurring significant penalty to small mappings.
For the time being, just do this in munmap syscall path. Other
vm_munmap() or do_munmap() call sites (i.e mmap, mremap, etc) remain
intact due to some implementation difficulties since they acquire write
mmap_sem from very beginning and hold it until the end, do_munmap() might
be called in the middle. But, the optimized do_munmap would like to be
called without mmap_sem held so that we can do the optimization. So, if
we want to do the similar optimization for mmap/mremap path, I'm afraid we
would have to redesign them. mremap might be called on very large area
depending on the usecases, the optimization to it will be considered in
the future.
This patch (of 3):
When running some mmap/munmap scalability tests with large memory (i.e.
> 300GB), the below hung task issue may happen occasionally.

It is because munmap holds mmap_sem exclusively from very beginning to all
the way down to the end, and doesn't release it in the middle. When
unmapping large mapping, it may take long time (take ~18 seconds to unmap
320GB mapping with every single page mapped on an idle machine).
Zapping pages is the most time consuming part, according to the suggestion
from Michal Hocko [1], zapping pages can be done with holding read
mmap_sem, like what MADV_DONTNEED does. Then re-acquire write mmap_sem to
cleanup vmas.

since vmas have been detached before, they, i.e. page fault, gup, etc,
will not be able to find valid vma, then just return SIGSEGV or -EFAULT as
expected.
If the vma has VM_HUGETLB | VM_PFNMAP, they are considered as special
mappings. They will be handled by without downgrading mmap_sem in this
patch since they may update vm flags.
But, with the "detach vmas first" approach, the vmas have been detached
when vm flags are updated, so it sounds safe to update vm flags with read
mmap_sem for this specific case. So, VM_HUGETLB and VM_PFNMAP will be

would have to redesign them. mremap might be called on very large area
depending on the usecases, the optimization to it will be considered in
the future.
With the patches, exclusive mmap_sem hold time when munmap a 80GB address
space on a machine with 32 cores of E5-2680 @ 2.70GHz dropped to us level
from second.
munmap_test-15002 [008] 594.380138: funcgraph_entry: |
__vm_munmap() {
munmap_test-15002 [008] 594.380146: funcgraph_entry: !2485684 us
| unmap_region();
munmap_test-15002 [008] 596.865836: funcgraph_exit: !2485692 us
| }
Here the execution time of unmap_region() is used to evaluate the time of
holding read mmap_sem, then the remaining time is used with holding
exclusive lock.

should_suppress_show_mem() was introduced to reduce the overhead of
show_mem on large NUMA systems. Things have changed since then though.
Namely c78e93630d ("mm: do not walk all of system memory during
show_mem") has reduced the overhead considerably.
Moreover warn_alloc_show_mem clears SHOW_MEM_FILTER_NODES when called from
the IRQ context already so we are not printing per node stats.
Remove should_suppress_show_mem because we are losing potentially
interesting information about allocation failures. We have seen a bug
report where system gets unresponsive under memory pressure and there is
only
kernel: [2032243.696888] qlge 0000:8b:00.1 ql1: Could not get a page chunk, i=8, clean_idx =200 .
kernel: [2032243.710725] swapper/7: page allocation failure: order:1, mode:0x1084120(GFP_ATOMIC|__GFP_COLD|__GFP_COMP)
without an additional information for debugging. It would be great to see
the state of the page allocator at the moment.

The refault stats go better with the page fault stats, and are of
higher interest than the stats on LRU operations. In fact they used to
be grouped together; when the LRU operation stats were added later on,
they were wedged in between.
Move them back together. Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst
already lists them in the right order.

The page cache and most shrinkable slab caches hold data that has been
read from disk, but there are some caches that only cache CPU work, such
as the dentry and inode caches of procfs and sysfs, as well as the subset
of radix tree nodes that track non-resident page cache.
Currently, all these are shrunk at the same rate: using DEFAULT_SEEKS for
the shrinker's seeks setting tells the reclaim algorithm that for every
two page cache pages scanned it should scan one slab object.
This is a bogus setting. A virtual inode that required no IO to create is
not twice as valuable as a page cache page; shadow cache entries with
eviction distances beyond the size of memory aren't either.
In most cases, the behavior in practice is still fine. Such virtual
caches don't tend to grow and assert themselves aggressively, and usually
get picked up before they cause problems. But there are scenarios where
that's not true.
Our database workloads suffer from two of those. For one, their file
workingset is several times bigger than available memory, which has the
kernel aggressively create shadow page cache entries for the non-resident
parts of it. The workingset code does tell the VM that most of these are
expendable, but the VM ends up balancing them 2:1 to cache pages as per
the seeks setting. This is a huge waste of memory.
These workloads also deal with tens of thousands of open files and use
/proc for introspection, which ends up growing the proc_inode_cache to
absurdly large sizes - again at the cost of valuable cache space, which
isn't a reasonable trade-off, given that proc inodes can be re-created
without involving the disk.
This patch implements a "zero-seek" setting for shrinkers that results in
a target ratio of 0:1 between their objects and IO-backed caches. This
allows such virtual caches to grow when memory is available (they do
cache/avoid CPU work after all), but effectively disables them as soon as
IO-backed objects are under pressure.
It then switches the shrinkers for procfs and sysfs metadata, as well as
excess page cache shadow nodes, to the new zero-seek setting.
