When the slab or slub allocators cannot allocate additional slab pages,
they emit diagnostic information to the kernel log such as current
number of slabs, number of objects, active objects, etc. This is always
coupled with a page allocation failure warning since it is controlled by
!__GFP_NOWARN.
Suppress this out of memory warning if the allocator is configured
without debug supported. The page allocation failure warning will
indicate it is a failed slab allocation, the order, and the gfp mask, so
this is only useful to diagnose allocator issues.
Since CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG is already enabled by default for the slub
allocator, there is no functional change with this patch. If debug is
disabled, however, the warnings are now suppressed.

After creating a cache for a memcg we should initialize its sysfs attrs

Currently, we try to arrange sysfs entries for memcg caches in the same
manner as for global caches. Apart from turning /sys/kernel/slab into a
mess when there are a lot of kmem-active memcgs created, it actually
does not work properly - we won't create more than one link to a memcg
cache in case its parent is merged with another cache. For instance, if
A is a root cache merged with another root cache B, we will have the
following sysfs setup:
X
A -> X
B -> X
where X is some unique id (see create_unique_id()). Now if memcgs M and
N start to allocate from cache A (or B, which is the same), we will get:
X
X:M
X:N
A -> X
B -> X
A:M -> X:M
A:N -> X:N
Since B is an alias for A, we won't get entries B:M and B:N, which is
confusing.
It is more logical to have entries for memcg caches under the
corresponding root cache's sysfs directory. This would allow us to keep
sysfs layout clean, and avoid such inconsistencies like one described
above.
This patch does the trick. It creates a "cgroup" kset in each root
cache kobject to keep its children caches there.

When a kmem cache is created (kmem_cache_create_memcg()), we first try to
find a compatible cache that already exists and can handle requests from
the new cache, i.e. has the same object size, alignment, ctor, etc. If
there is such a cache, we do not create any new caches, instead we simply
increment the refcount of the cache found and return it.
Currently we do this procedure not only when creating root caches, but
also for memcg caches. However, there is no point in that, because, as
every memcg cache has exactly the same parameters as its parent and cache
merging cannot be turned off in runtime (only on boot by passing
"slub_nomerge"), the root caches of any two potentially mergeable memcg
caches should be merged already, i.e. it must be the same root cache, and
therefore we couldn't even get to the memcg cache creation, because it
already exists.
The only exception is boot caches - they are explicitly forbidden to be
merged by setting their refcount to -1. There are currently only two of
them - kmem_cache and kmem_cache_node, which are used in slab internals (I
do not count kmalloc caches as their refcount is set to 1 immediately
after creation). Since they are prevented from merging preliminary I
guess we should avoid to merge their children too.
So let's remove the useless code responsible for merging memcg caches.

At the same time, cleanup its code by saving numa_mem_id() in a local

remove an obsolete comment that assumes the mempolicy is actually passed

We release the slab_mutex while calling sysfs_slab_add from
__kmem_cache_create since commit 66c4c35c6b ("slub: Do not hold
slub_lock when calling sysfs_slab_add()"), because kobject_uevent called
by sysfs_slab_add might block waiting for the usermode helper to exec,
which would result in a deadlock if we took the slab_mutex while
executing it.
However, apart from complicating synchronization rules, releasing the
slab_mutex on kmem cache creation can result in a kmemcg-related race.
The point is that we check if the memcg cache exists before going to
__kmem_cache_create, but register the new cache in memcg subsys after
it. Since we can drop the mutex there, several threads can see that the
memcg cache does not exist and proceed to creating it, which is wrong.
Fortunately, recently kobject_uevent was patched to call the usermode
helper with the UMH_NO_WAIT flag, making the deadlock impossible.
Therefore there is no point in releasing the slab_mutex while calling
sysfs_slab_add, so let's simplify kmem_cache_create synchronization and
fix the kmemcg-race mentioned above by holding the slab_mutex during the
whole cache creation path.

Since put_mems_allowed() is strictly optional, its a seqcount retry, we
don't need to evaluate the function if the allocation was in fact
successful, saving a smp_rmb some loads and comparisons on some relative
fast-paths.
Since the naming, get/put_mems_allowed() does suggest a mandatory
pairing, rename the interface, as suggested by Mel, to resemble the
seqcount interface.
This gives us: read_mems_allowed_begin() and read_mems_allowed_retry(),
where it is important to note that the return value of the latter call
is inverted from its previous incarnation.

His solution was to add a spinlock in order to quiet lockdep. Although
there would be no contention to adding the lock, that lock also requires
disabling of interrupts which will have a larger impact on the system.
Instead of adding a spinlock to a location where it is not needed for
lockdep, make a __remove_partial() function that does not test if the
list_lock is held, as no one should have it due to it being freed.
Also added a __add_partial() function that does not do the lock
validation either, as it is not needed for the creation of the cache.

Commit abca7c4965 ("mm: fix slab->page _count corruption when using
slub") notes that we can not _set_ a page->counters directly, except
when using a real double-cmpxchg. Doing so can lose updates to
->_count.
That is an absolute rule:
You may not *set* page->counters except via a cmpxchg.
Commit abca7c4965 fixed this for the folks who have the slub
cmpxchg_double code turned off at compile time, but it left the bad case
alone. It can still be reached, and the same bug triggered in two
cases:
1. Turning on slub debugging at runtime, which is available on
the distro kernels that I looked at.
2. On 64-bit CPUs with no CMPXCHG16B (some early AMD x86-64
cpus, evidently)
There are at least 3 ways we could fix this:
1. Take all of the exising calls to cmpxchg_double_slab() and
__cmpxchg_double_slab() and convert them to take an old, new
and target 'struct page'.
2. Do (1), but with the newly-introduced 'slub_data'.
3. Do some magic inside the two cmpxchg...slab() functions to
pull the counters out of new_counters and only set those
fields in page->{inuse,frozen,objects}.
I've done (2) as well, but it's a bunch more code. This patch is an
attempt at (3). This was the most straightforward and foolproof way
that I could think to do this.
This would also technically allow us to get rid of the ugly
#if defined(CONFIG_HAVE_CMPXCHG_DOUBLE) && \
defined(CONFIG_HAVE_ALIGNED_STRUCT_PAGE)
in 'struct page', but leaving it alone has the added benefit that
'counters' stays 'unsigned' instead of 'unsigned long', so all the
copies that the slub code does stay a bit smaller.

But, most of the ones in the slub code are for _temporary_ 'struct

them. Dumping their contents out will just confuse folks looking at
bad_page() output. Plus, if we try to page_to_pfn() on them or

Most of the VM_BUG_ON assertions are performed on a page. Usually, when
one of these assertions fails we'll get a BUG_ON with a call stack and
the registers.
I've recently noticed based on the requests to add a small piece of code
that dumps the page to various VM_BUG_ON sites that the page dump is
quite useful to people debugging issues in mm.
This patch adds a VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(cond, page) which beyond doing what
VM_BUG_ON() does, also dumps the page before executing the actual
BUG_ON.

See, the number of slabs is smaller than that of cpu slabs.
The bug was introduced by commit 49e2258586
("slub: per cpu cache for partial pages").
We should use page->pages instead of page->pobjects when calculating
the number of cpu partial slabs. This also fixes the mapping of slabs
and nodes.
As there's no variable storing the number of total/active objects in
cpu partial slabs, and we don't have user interfaces requiring those
statistics, I just add WARN_ON for those cases.

The kmalloc* functions of all slab allcoators are similar now so
lets move them into slab.h. This requires some function naming changes
in slob.
As a results of this patch there is a common set of functions for
all allocators. Also means that kmalloc_large() is now available
in general to perform large order allocations that go directly
via the page allocator. kmalloc_large() can be substituted if
kmalloc() throws warnings because of too large allocations.
kmalloc_large() has exactly the same semantics as kmalloc but
can only used for allocations > PAGE_SIZE.

In commit 4d7868e6(slub: Do not dereference NULL pointer in node_match)
had added check for page NULL in node_match. Thus, it is not needed
to check it before node_match, remove it.

This reverts commit 318df36e57.
This commit caused Steven Rostedt's hackbench runs to run out of memory
due to a leak. As noted by Joonsoo Kim, it is buggy in the following
scenario:
"I guess, you may set 0 to all kmem caches's cpu_partial via sysfs,
doesn't it?
In this case, memory leak is possible in following case. Code flow of
possible leak is follwing case.
* in __slab_free()
1. (!new.inuse || !prior) && !was_frozen
2. !kmem_cache_debug && !prior
3. new.frozen = 1
4. after cmpxchg_double_slab, run the (!n) case with new.frozen=1
5. with this patch, put_cpu_partial() doesn't do anything,
because this cache's cpu_partial is 0
6. return
In step 5, leak occur"
And Steven does indeed have cpu_partial set to 0 due to RT testing.
Joonsoo is cooking up a patch, but everybody agrees that reverting this
for now is the right thing to do.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
This removes all the uses of the __cpuinit macros from C files in
the core kernel directories (kernel, init, lib, mm, and include)
that don't really have a specific maintainer.

Now, this uses SLUB pretty much unmodified, but as it is the -rt kernel
with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT set, spinlocks are mutexes, although they do
disable migration. But the SLUB code is relatively lockless, and the
spin_locks there are raw_spin_locks (not converted to mutexes), thus I
believe this bug can happen in mainline without -rt features. The -rt
patch is just good at triggering mainline bugs ;-)
Anyway, looking at where this crashed, it seems that the page variable
can be NULL when passed to the node_match() function (which does not
check if it is NULL). When this happens we get the above panic.
As page is only used in slab_alloc() to check if the node matches, if
it's NULL I'm assuming that we can say it doesn't and call the
__slab_alloc() code. Is this a correct assumption?

In free path, we don't check number of cpu_partial, so one slab can
be linked in cpu partial list even if cpu_partial is 0. To prevent this,
