Smatch complains that idx can be used uninitialized when we check if
(idx < 0). It has to be the first iteration through the loop and the
HIST_FIELD_FL_STACKTRACE bit has to be clear and the HIST_FIELD_FL_VAR

The strncpy() currently being used for variable string fields can
result in a lack of termination if the string length is equal to the
field size. Use the safer strscpy() instead, which will guarantee
termination.

Actions also need to be considered when checking for matching triggers
- triggers differing only by action should be allowed, but currently
aren't because the matching check ignores the action and erroneously
returns -EEXIST.
Add and call an actions_match() function to address that.
Here's an example using onmatch() actions. The first -EEXIST shouldn't
occur because the onmatch() is different in the second wakeup_latency()
param. The second -EEXIST shouldn't occur because it's a different
action (in this case, it doesn't have an action, so shouldn't be seen
as being the same and therefore rejected).
In the after case, both are correctly accepted (and trying to add one of
them again returns -EEXIST as it should).

When displaying hist triggers, variable references that have the

Across suspend, we may see a very large drift in timestamps if the sched
clock is unstable, prompting the global trace's ringbuffer code to warn
and suggest switching to the global clock. Preempt this request by
detecting when the sched clock is unstable (determined during
late_initcall) and automatically switching the default clock over to
trace_global_clock.
This should prevent requiring user interaction to resolve warnings such
as:

This patch fixes a corner case for KSM. When two pages belong or
belonged to the same transparent hugepage, and they should be merged,
KSM fails to split the page, and therefore no merging happens.
This bug can be reproduced by:
* making sure ksm is running (in case disabling ksmtuned)
* enabling transparent hugepages
* allocating a THP-aligned 1-THP-sized buffer
e.g. on amd64: posix_memalign(&p, 1<<21, 1<<21)
* filling it with the same values
e.g. memset(p, 42, 1<<21)
* performing madvise to make it mergeable
e.g. madvise(p, 1<<21, MADV_MERGEABLE)
* waiting for KSM to perform a few scans
The expected outcome is that the all the pages get merged (1 shared and
the rest sharing); the actual outcome is that no pages get merged (1
unshared and the rest volatile)
The reason of this behaviour is that we increase the reference count
once for both pages we want to merge, but if they belong to the same
hugepage (or compound page), the reference counter used in both cases is
the one of the head of the compound page. This means that
split_huge_page will find a value of the reference counter too high and
will fail.
This patch solves this problem by testing if the two pages to merge
belong to the same hugepage when attempting to merge them. If so, the
hugepage is split safely. This means that the hugepage is not split if
not necessary.

At present the construct
if (VM_WARN(...))
will compile OK with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y and will fail with
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=n. The reason is that VM_{WARN,BUG}* have always been
special wrt. {WARN/BUG}* and never generate any code when DEBUG_VM is
disabled. So we cannot really use it in conditionals.
We considered changing things so that this construct works in both cases
but that might cause unwanted code generation with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=n.
It is safer and simpler to make the build fail in both cases.

start_isolate_page_range() is used to set the migrate type of a set of
pageblocks to MIGRATE_ISOLATE while attempting to start a migration
operation. It assumes that only one thread is calling it for the
specified range. This routine is used by CMA, memory hotplug and
gigantic huge pages. Each of these users synchronize access to the
range within their subsystem. However, two subsystems (CMA and gigantic
huge pages for example) could attempt operations on the same range. If
this happens, one thread may 'undo' the work another thread is doing.
This can result in pageblocks being incorrectly left marked as
MIGRATE_ISOLATE and therefore not available for page allocation.
What is ideally needed is a way to synchronize access to a set of
pageblocks that are undergoing isolation and migration. The only thing
we know about these pageblocks is that they are all in the same zone. A
per-node mutex is too coarse as we want to allow multiple operations on
different ranges within the same zone concurrently. Instead, we will
use the migration type of the pageblocks themselves as a form of
synchronization.
start_isolate_page_range sets the migration type on a set of page-
blocks going in order from the one associated with the smallest pfn to
the largest pfn. The zone lock is acquired to check and set the
migration type. When going through the list of pageblocks check if
MIGRATE_ISOLATE is already set. If so, this indicates another thread is
working on this pageblock. We know exactly which pageblocks we set, so
clean up by undo those and return -EBUSY.
This allows start_isolate_page_range to serve as a synchronization
mechanism and will allow for more general use of callers making use of
these interfaces. Update comments in alloc_contig_range to reflect this
new functionality.
Each CPU holds the associated zone lock to modify or examine the
migration type of a pageblock. And, it will only examine/update a
single pageblock per lock acquire/release cycle.

The plan for these patches is to introduce the typedef, initially just
as documentation ("These functions should return a VM_FAULT_ status").
We'll trickle the patches to individual drivers/filesystems in through
the maintainers, as far as possible. Then we'll change the typedef to
an unsigned int and break the compilation of any unconverted
drivers/filesystems.
vmf_insert_page(), vmf_insert_mixed() and vmf_insert_pfn() are three
newly added functions. The various drivers/filesystems where return
value of fault(), huge_fault(), page_mkwrite() and pfn_mkwrite() get
converted, will need them. These functions will return correct
VM_FAULT_ code based on err value.
We've had bugs before where drivers returned -EFOO. And we have this
silly inefficiency where vm_insert_xxx() return an errno which (afaict)
every driver then converts into a VM_FAULT code. In many cases drivers
failed to return correct VM_FAULT code value despite of vm_insert_xxx()
fails. We have indentified and clean up all those existing bugs and
silly inefficiencies in driver/filesystems by adding these three new
inline wrappers. As mentioned above, we will trickle those patches to
individual drivers/filesystems in through maintainers after these three
wrapper functions are merged.
Eventually we can convert vm_insert_xxx() into vmf_insert_xxx() and
remove these inline wrappers, but these are a good intermediate step.

Since the 2.6 kernel, the oom killer has slightly biased away from
CAP_SYS_ADMIN processes by discounting some of its memory usage in
comparison to other processes.
This has always been implicit and nothing exactly relies on the
behavior.
Gaurav notices that __task_cred() can dereference a potentially freed
pointer if the task under consideration is exiting because a reference
to the task_struct is not held.
Remove the CAP_SYS_ADMIN bias so that all processes are treated equally.
If any CAP_SYS_ADMIN process would like to be biased against, it is
always allowed to adjust /proc/pid/oom_score_adj.

Kswapd will not wakeup if per-zone watermarks are not failing or if too
many previous attempts at background reclaim have failed.
This can be true if there is a lot of free memory available. For high-
order allocations, kswapd is responsible for waking up kcompactd for
background compaction. If the zone is not below its watermarks or
reclaim has recently failed (lots of free memory, nothing left to
reclaim), kcompactd does not get woken up.
When __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is not allowed, allow kcompactd to still be
woken up even if kswapd will not reclaim. This allows high-order
allocations, such as thp, to still trigger background compaction even
when the zone has an abundance of free memory.

KASAN splats indicate that in some cases we free a live mm, then
continue to access it, with potentially disastrous results. This is
likely due to a mismatched mmdrop() somewhere in the kernel, but so far
the culprit remains elusive.
Let's have __mmdrop() verify that the mm isn't live for the current
task, similar to the existing check for init_mm. This way, we can catch
this class of issue earlier, and without requiring KASAN.
Currently, idle_task_exit() leaves active_mm stale after it switches to
init_mm. This isn't harmful, but will trigger the new assertions, so we
must adjust idle_task_exit() to update active_mm.

During the reclaiming slab of a memcg, shrink_slab iterates over all
registered shrinkers in the system, and tries to count and consume
objects related to the cgroup. In case of memory pressure, this behaves
bad: I observe high system time and time spent in list_lru_count_one()

Remove ZRAM's enforced "huge object" value and use zsmalloc huge-class

data set size was 444MB. Looking at zsmalloc classes stats the
test ended up to be pretty fair.

As we can see, we reduced the number of objects stored in class-4096,
because a huge number of objects which we previously forcibly stored in
class-4096 now stored in non-huge class-3264. This results in lower
memory consumption:
- zsmalloc now uses 47424 physical pages, which is less than 48787 pages
zsmalloc used before.
- objects that we store in class-3264 share zspages. That's why overall
the number of pages that both class-4096 and class-3264 consumed went
down from 10924 to 9564.

Patch series "zsmalloc/zram: drop zram's max_zpage_size", v3.
ZRAM's max_zpage_size is a bad thing. It forces zsmalloc to store
normal objects as huge ones, which results in bigger zsmalloc memory
usage. Drop it and use actual zsmalloc huge-class value when decide if
the object is huge or not.
This patch (of 2):
Not every object can be share its zspage with other objects, e.g. when
the object is as big as zspage or nearly as big a zspage. For such
objects zsmalloc has a so called huge class - every object which belongs
to huge class consumes the entire zspage (which consists of a physical
page). On x86_64, PAGE_SHIFT 12 box, the first non-huge class size is
3264, so starting down from size 3264, objects can share page(-s) and
thus minimize memory wastage.
ZRAM, however, has its own statically defined watermark for huge
objects, namely "3 * PAGE_SIZE / 4 = 3072", and forcibly stores every
object larger than this watermark (3072) as a PAGE_SIZE object, in other
words, to a huge class, while zsmalloc can keep some of those objects in
non-huge classes. This results in increased memory consumption.
zsmalloc knows better if the object is huge or not. Introduce
zs_huge_class_size() function which tells if the given object can be
stored in one of non-huge classes or not. This will let us to drop
ZRAM's huge object watermark and fully rely on zsmalloc when we decide
if the object is huge.

Thanks to commit 4b3ef9daa4 ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB
trunks"), after swapoff the address_space associated with the swap
device will be freed. So page_mapping() users which may touch the
address_space need some kind of mechanism to prevent the address_space
from being freed during accessing.
The dcache flushing functions (flush_dcache_page(), etc) in architecture
specific code may access the address_space of swap device for anonymous
pages in swap cache via page_mapping() function. But in some cases
there are no mechanisms to prevent the swap device from being swapoff,
for example,
CPU1 CPU2
__get_user_pages() swapoff()
flush_dcache_page()
mapping = page_mapping()
... exit_swap_address_space()
... kvfree(spaces)
mapping_mapped(mapping)
The address space may be accessed after being freed.
But from cachetlb.txt and Russell King, flush_dcache_page() only care
about file cache pages, for anonymous pages, flush_anon_page() should be
used. The implementation of flush_dcache_page() in all architectures
follows this too. They will check whether page_mapping() is NULL and
whether mapping_mapped() is true to determine whether to flush the
dcache immediately. And they will use interval tree (mapping->i_mmap)
to find all user space mappings. While mapping_mapped() and
mapping->i_mmap isn't used by anonymous pages in swap cache at all.
So, to fix the race between swapoff and flush dcache, __page_mapping()
is add to return the address_space for file cache pages and NULL
otherwise. All page_mapping() invoking in flush dcache functions are
replaced with page_mapping_file().

When device-dax is operating in huge-page mode we want it to behave like

the vma.
Similar to commit 31383c6865 "mm, hugetlbfs: introduce ->split() to
vm_operations_struct" it would be messy to teach vma_mmu_pagesize()
about device-dax page mapping sizes in the same (hstate) way that
hugetlbfs communicates this attribute. Instead, these patches introduce
a new ->pagesize() vm operation.

Patch series "mm, smaps: MMUPageSize for device-dax", v3.
Similar to commit 31383c6865 ("mm, hugetlbfs: introduce ->split() to
vm_operations_struct") here is another occasion where we want
special-case hugetlbfs/hstate enabling to also apply to device-dax.
This prompts the question what other hstate conversions we might do
beyond ->split() and ->pagesize(), but this appears to be the last of
the usages of hstate_vma() in generic/non-hugetlbfs specific code paths.
This patch (of 3):
The current powerpc definition of vma_mmu_pagesize() open codes looking
up the page size via hstate. It is identical to the generic
vma_kernel_pagesize() implementation.
Now, vma_kernel_pagesize() is growing support for determining the page
size of Device-DAX vmas in addition to the existing Hugetlbfs page size
determination.
Ideally, if the powerpc vma_mmu_pagesize() used vma_kernel_pagesize() it
would automatically benefit from any new vma-type support that is added
to vma_kernel_pagesize(). However, the powerpc vma_mmu_pagesize() is
prevented from calling vma_kernel_pagesize() due to a circular header
dependency that requires vma_mmu_pagesize() to be defined before
including <linux/hugetlb.h>.
Break this circular dependency by defining the default vma_mmu_pagesize()
as a __weak symbol to be overridden by the powerpc version.

When a page is freed back to the global pool, its buddy will be checked
to see if it's possible to do a merge. This requires accessing buddy's
page structure and that access could take a long time if it's cache
cold.
This patch adds a prefetch to the to-be-freed page's buddy outside of
zone->lock in hope of accessing buddy's page structure later under
zone->lock will be faster. Since we *always* do buddy merging and check
an order-0 page's buddy to try to merge it when it goes into the main
allocator, the cacheline will always come in, i.e. the prefetched data
will never be unused.
Normally, the number of prefetch will be pcp->batch(default=31 and has
an upper limit of (PAGE_SHIFT * 8)=96 on x86_64) but in the case of
pcp's pages get all drained, it will be pcp->count which has an upper
limit of pcp->high. pcp->high, although has a default value of 186
(pcp->batch=31 * 6), can be changed by user through
/proc/sys/vm/percpu_pagelist_fraction and there is no software upper
limit so could be large, like several thousand. For this reason, only
the first pcp->batch number of page's buddy structure is prefetched to
avoid excessive prefetching.
In the meantime, there are two concerns:
1. the prefetch could potentially evict existing cachelines, especially
for L1D cache since it is not huge
2. there is some additional instruction overhead, namely calculating
buddy pfn twice
For 1, it's hard to say, this microbenchmark though shows good result
but the actual benefit of this patch will be workload/CPU dependant;
For 2, since the calculation is a XOR on two local variables, it's
expected in many cases that cycles spent will be offset by reduced
memory latency later. This is especially true for NUMA machines where
multiple CPUs are contending on zone->lock and the most time consuming
part under zone->lock is the wait of 'struct page' cacheline of the
to-be-freed pages and their buddies.

irq is also disabled.

It's possible for free pages to become stranded on per-cpu pagesets
(pcps) that, if drained, could be merged with buddy pages on the zone's
free area to form large order pages, including up to MAX_ORDER.
Consider a verbose example using the tools/vm/page-types tool at the
beginning of a ZONE_NORMAL ('B' indicates a buddy page and 'S' indicates
a slab page). Pages on pcps do not have any page flags set.

The compaction migration scanner is attempting to defragment this memory
since it is at the beginning of the zone. It has done so quite well,
all movable pages have been migrated. From pfn [0x109955, 0x109fab),
there are only buddy pages and pages without flags set.
These pages may be stranded on pcps that could otherwise allow this
memory to be coalesced if freed back to the zone free area. It is
possible that some of these pages may not be on pcps and that something
has called alloc_pages() and used the memory directly, but we rely on
the absence of __GFP_MOVABLE in these cases to allocate from
MIGATE_UNMOVABLE pageblocks to try to keep these MIGRATE_MOVABLE
pageblocks as free as possible.
These buddy and pcp pages, spanning 1,621 pages, could be coalesced and
allow for three transparent hugepages to be dynamically allocated.
Running the numbers for all such spans on the system, it was found that
there were over 400 such spans of only buddy pages and pages without
flags set at the time this /proc/kpageflags sample was collected.
Without this support, there were _no_ order-9 or order-10 pages free.
When kcompactd fails to defragment memory such that a cc.order page can
be allocated, drain all pcps for the zone back to the buddy allocator so
this stranding cannot occur. Compaction for that order will
subsequently be deferred, which acts as a ratelimit on this drain.

should_failslab() is a convenient function to hook into for directed
error injection into kmalloc(). However, it is only available if a
config flag is set.
The following BCC script, for example, fails kmalloc() calls after a
btrfs umount:
from bcc import BPF
prog = r"""
BPF_HASH(flag);
#include <linux/mm.h>
int kprobe__btrfs_close_devices(void *ctx) {
u64 key = 1;
flag.update(&key, &key);
return 0;
}
int kprobe__should_failslab(struct pt_regs *ctx) {
u64 key = 1;
u64 *res;
res = flag.lookup(&key);
if (res != 0) {
bpf_override_return(ctx, -ENOMEM);
}
return 0;
}
"""
b = BPF(text=prog)
while 1:
b.kprobe_poll()
This patch refactors the should_failslab implementation so that the
function is always available for error injection, independent of flags.
This change would be similar in nature to commit f5490d3ec921 ("block:
Add should_fail_bio() for bpf error injection").

The early_param() is only called during kernel initialization, So Linux
marks the function of it with __init macro to save memory.
But it forgot to mark the early_page_poison_param(). So, Make it __init

When I see recent change of swap readahead, I am very unhappy about
current code structure which diverges two swap readahead algorithm in
do_swap_page. This patch is to clean it up.
Main motivation is that fault handler doesn't need to be aware of
readahead algorithms but just should call swapin_readahead.
As first step, this patch cleans up a little bit but not perfect (I just
separate for review easier) so next patch will make the goal complete.

Since we no longer use return value of shrink_slab() for normal reclaim,
the comment is no longer true. If some do_shrink_slab() call takes
unexpectedly long (root cause of stall is currently unknown) when
register_shrinker()/unregister_shrinker() is pending, trying to drop
caches via /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches could become infinite cond_resched()
loop if many mem_cgroup are defined. For safety, let's not pretend
forward progress.

Currently if z3fold couldn't find an unbuddied page it would first try
to pull a page off the stale list. The problem with this approach is
that we can't 100% guarantee that the page is not processed by the
workqueue thread at the same time unless we run cancel_work_sync() on
it, which we can't do if we're in an atomic context. So let's just
limit stale list usage to non-atomic contexts only.

THP split makes non-atomic change of tail page flags. This is almost ok
because tail pages are locked and isolated but this breaks recent
changes in page locking: non-atomic operation could clear bit
PG_waiters.
As a result concurrent sequence get_page_unless_zero() -> lock_page()
might block forever. Especially if this page was truncated later.
Fix is trivial: clone flags before unfreezing page reference counter.
This race exists since commit 6290602709 ("mm: add PageWaiters
indicating tasks are waiting for a page bit") while unsave unfreeze
itself was added in commit 8df651c705 ("thp: cleanup
split_huge_page()").
clear_compound_head() also must be called before unfreezing page
reference because after successful get_page_unless_zero() might follow
put_page() which needs correct compound_head().
And replace page_ref_inc()/page_ref_add() with page_ref_unfreeze() which
is made especially for that and has semantic of smp_store_release().

When page_mapping() is called and the mapping is dereferenced in
page_evicatable() through shrink_active_list(), it is possible for the
inode to be truncated and the embedded address space to be freed at the
same time. This may lead to the following race.
CPU1 CPU2
truncate(inode) shrink_active_list()
... page_evictable(page)
truncate_inode_page(mapping, page);
delete_from_page_cache(page)
spin_lock_irqsave(&mapping->tree_lock, flags);
__delete_from_page_cache(page, NULL)
page_cache_tree_delete(..)
... mapping = page_mapping(page);
page->mapping = NULL;
...
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mapping->tree_lock, flags);
page_cache_free_page(mapping, page)
put_page(page)
if (put_page_testzero(page)) -> false
- inode now has no pages and can be freed including embedded address_space
mapping_unevictable(mapping)
test_bit(AS_UNEVICTABLE, &mapping->flags);
- we've dereferenced mapping which is potentially already free.
Similar race exists between swap cache freeing and page_evicatable()
too.
The address_space in inode and swap cache will be freed after a RCU
grace period. So the races are fixed via enclosing the page_mapping()
and address_space usage in rcu_read_lock/unlock(). Some comments are
added in code to make it clear what is protected by the RCU read lock.
