Commit c0a32fc5a2 ("mm: more intensive memory corruption debugging")
changed to check debug_guardpage_minorder() > 0 when reporting
allocation failures. The reasoning was
When we use guard page to debug memory corruption, it shrinks
available pages to 1/2, 1/4, 1/8 and so on, depending on parameter
value. In such case memory allocation failures can be common and
printing errors can flood dmesg. If somebody debug corruption,
allocation failures are not the things he/she is interested about.
but this is misguided.
Allocation requests with __GFP_NOWARN flag by definition do not cause
flooding of allocation failure messages. Allocation requests with
__GFP_NORETRY flag likely also have __GFP_NOWARN flag. Costly
allocation requests likely also have __GFP_NOWARN flag.
Allocation requests without __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM flag likely also have
__GFP_NOWARN flag or __GFP_HIGH flag. Non-costly allocation requests
with __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM flag basically retry forever due to the "too
small to fail" memory-allocation rule.
Therefore, as a whole, shrinking available pages by
debug_guardpage_minorder= kernel boot parameter might cause flooding of
OOM killer messages but unlikely causes flooding of allocation failure
messages. Let's remove debug_guardpage_minorder() > 0 check which would
likely be pointless.

This cleans up handling MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE and MADV_HWPOISON called
through madvise() system call.
* madvise_memory_failure() was misleading to accommodate handling of
both memory_failure() as well as soft_offline_page() functions.
Basically it handles memory error injection from user space which
can go either way as memory failure or soft offline. Renamed as
madvise_inject_error() instead.
* Renamed struct page pointer 'p' to 'page'.
* pr_info() was essentially printing PFN value but it said 'page'
which was misleading. Made the process virtual address explicit.

Since commit 59dc76b0d4 ("mm: vmscan: reduce size of inactive file
list") we noticed bigger IO spikes during changes in cache access
patterns.
The patch in question shrunk the inactive list size to leave more room
for the current workingset in the presence of streaming IO. However,
workingset transitions that previously happened on the inactive list are
now pushed out of memory and incur more refaults to complete.
This patch disables active list protection when refaults are being
observed. This accelerates workingset transitions, and allows more of
the new set to establish itself from memory, without eating into the
ability to protect the established workingset during stable periods.
The workloads that were measurably affected for us were hit pretty bad
by it, with refault/majfault rates doubling and tripling during cache
transitions, and the machines sustaining half-hour periods of 100% IO
utilization, where they'd previously have sub-minute peaks at 60-90%.
Stateful services that handle user data tend to be more conservative
with kernel upgrades. As a result we hit most page cache issues with
some delay, as was the case here.
The severity seemed to warrant a stable tag.

sysrq: SysRq : Manual OOM execution
sysrq: OOM request ignored because killer is disabled
sysrq: SysRq : Manual OOM execution
sysrq: OOM request ignored because killer is disabled
The real reason is that there are no eligible tasks for the OOM killer
to select but since commit 7c5f64f844 ("mm: oom: deduplicate victim
selection code for memcg and global oom") the semantic of out_of_memory
has changed without updating moom_callback.
This patch updates moom_callback to tell that no task was eligible which
is the case for both oom killer disabled and no eligible tasks. In
order to help distinguish first case from the second add printk to both
oom_killer_{enable,disable}. This information is useful on its own
because it might help debugging potential memory allocation failures.

On SPARSEMEM systems page poisoning is enabled after buddy is up,
because of the dependency on page extension init. This causes the pages
released by free_all_bootmem not to be poisoned. This either delays or
misses the identification of some issues because the pages have to
undergo another cycle of alloc-free-alloc for any corruption to be
detected.
Enable page poisoning early by getting rid of the PAGE_EXT_DEBUG_POISON
flag. Since all the free pages will now be poisoned, the flag need not
be verified before checking the poison during an alloc.

Cluster lock is used to protect the swap_cluster_info and corresponding
elements in swap_info_struct->swap_map[]. But it is found that now in
scan_swap_map_slots(), swap_avail_lock may be acquired when cluster lock
is held. This does no good except making the locking more complex and
improving the potential locking contention, because the
swap_info_struct->lock is used to protect the data structure operated in
the code already. Fix this via moving the corresponding operations in
scan_swap_map_slots() out of cluster lock.

Commit cbab0e4eec ("swap: avoid read_swap_cache_async() race to
deadlock while waiting on discard I/O completion") fixed a deadlock in
read_swap_cache_async(). Because at that time, in swap allocation path,
a swap entry may be set as SWAP_HAS_CACHE, then wait for discarding to
complete before the page for the swap entry is added to the swap cache.
But in commit 815c2c543d ("swap: make swap discard async"), the
discarding for swap become asynchronous, waiting for discarding to
complete will be done before the swap entry is set as SWAP_HAS_CACHE.
So the comments in code is incorrect now. This patch fixes the
comments.
The cond_resched() added in the commit cbab0e4eec is not necessary now
too. But if we added some sleep in swap allocation path in the future,
there may be some hard to debug/reproduce deadlock bug. So it is kept.

page_mapcount() of a page cannot be zero, so the page_mapcount check in
try_to_unmap is enough to return SWAP_SUCCESS. IOW, SWAP_MLOCK check is
redundant so remove it.

If we found lazyfree page is dirty, try_to_unmap_one can just
SetPageSwapBakced in there like PG_mlocked page and just return with
SWAP_FAIL which is very natural because the page is not swappable right
now so that vmscan can activate it. There is no point to introduce new
return value SWAP_DIRTY in try_to_unmap at the moment.

By reviewing code, I find that when enter do_try_to_free_pages, the
may_thrash is always clear, and it will retry shrink zones to tap
cgroup's reserves memory by setting may_thrash when the former
shrink_zones reclaim nothing.
However, when memcg is disabled or on legacy hierarchy, or there do not
have any memcg protected by low limit, it should not do this useless
retry at all, for we do not have any cgroup's reserves memory to tap,
and we have already done hard work but made no progress, which as Michal
pointed out in former version, we are trying hard to control the retry
logical of page alloctor, and the current additional round of reclaim is
just lame.
Therefore, to avoid this unneeded retrying and make code more readable,
we remove the may_thrash field in scan_control, instead, introduce
memcg_low_reclaim and memcg_low_skipped, and only retry when
memcg_low_skipped, by setting memcg_low_reclaim.

By reviewing code, I find that if the migrate target is a large free

smaller block which is not good for defrag. So move the ignore block
suitable after check large free page.
As Vlastimil pointed out in RFC version that this patch is just based on
logical analyses which might be better for future-proofing the function
and it is most likely won't have any visible effect right now, for
direct compaction shouldn't have to be called if there's a

The current implementation calculates usemap_size in two steps:
* calculate number of bytes to cover these bits
* calculate number of "unsigned long" to cover these bytes
It would be more clear by:
* calculate number of "unsigned long" to cover these bits
* multiple it with sizeof(unsigned long)
This patch refine usemap_size() a little to make it more easy to
understand.

__GFP_NOWARN, which is usually added to avoid warnings from callsites
that expect to fail and have fallbacks, currently also suppresses
allocation stall warnings. These trigger when an allocation is stuck
inside the allocator for 10 seconds or longer.
But there is no class of allocations that can get legitimately stuck in
the allocator for this long. This always indicates a problem.
Always emit stall warnings. Restrict __GFP_NOWARN to alloc failures.

kswapd is woken to reclaim a node based on a failed allocation request
from any eligible zone. Once reclaiming in balance_pgdat(), it will
continue reclaiming until there is an eligible zone available for the
zone it was woken for. kswapd tracks what zone it was recently woken
for in pgdat->kswapd_classzone_idx. If it has not been woken recently,
this zone will be 0.
However, the decision on whether to sleep is made on
kswapd_classzone_idx which is 0 without a recent wakeup request and that
classzone does not account for lowmem reserves. This allows kswapd to
sleep when a low small zone such as ZONE_DMA is balanced for a GFP_DMA
request even if a stream of allocations cannot use that zone. While
kswapd may be woken again shortly in the near future there are two
consequences -- the pgdat bits that control congestion are cleared
prematurely and direct reclaim is more likely as kswapd slept
prematurely.
This patch flips kswapd_classzone_idx to default to MAX_NR_ZONES (an
invalid index) when there has been no recent wakeups. If there are no
wakeups, it'll decide whether to sleep based on the highest possible
zone available (MAX_NR_ZONES - 1). It then becomes critical that the
"pgdat balanced" decisions during reclaim and when deciding to sleep are
the same. If there is a mismatch, kswapd can stay awake continually
trying to balance tiny zones.
simoop was used to evaluate it again. Two of the preparation patches
regressed the workload so they are included as the second set of
results. Otherwise this patch looks artifically excellent

With this patch on top, write and allocation latencies are massively
improved. The read latencies are slightly impaired but it's worth
noting that this is mostly due to the IO scheduler and not directly
related to reclaim. The vmstats are a bit of a mix but the relevant
ones are as follows;

Swap-outs are equivalent to baseline.
Direct reclaim is reduced but not eliminated. It's worth noting that
there are two periods of direct reclaim for this workload. The first is
when it switches from preparing the files for the actual test itself.
It's a lot of file IO followed by a lot of allocs that reclaims heavily
for a brief window. While direct reclaim is lower with clear-v2, it is
due to kswapd scanning aggressively and trying to reclaim the world
which is not the right thing to do. With the patches applied, there is
still direct reclaim but the phase change from "creating work files" to
starting multiple threads that allocate a lot of anonymous memory faster
than kswapd can reclaim.
Scanning/reclaim efficiency is restored by this patch.
Page writes from reclaim context are back at 0 which is ideal.
Pages immediately reclaimed after IO completes is slightly improved but
it is expected this will vary slightly.
On UMA, there is almost no change so this is not expected to be a
universal win.

A pgdat tracks if recent reclaim encountered too many dirty, writeback
or congested pages. The flags control whether kswapd writes pages back
from reclaim context, tags pages for immediate reclaim when IO
completes, whether processes block on wait_iff_congested and whether
kswapd blocks when too many pages marked for immediate reclaim are
encountered.
The state is cleared in a check function with side-effects. With the
patch "mm, vmscan: fix zone balance check in prepare_kswapd_sleep", the
timing of when the bits get cleared changed. Due to the way the check
works, it'll clear the bits if ZONE_DMA is balanced for a GFP_DMA
allocation because it does not account for lowmem reserves properly.
For the simoop workload, kswapd is not stalling when it should due to
the premature clearing, writing pages from reclaim context like crazy
and generally being unhelpful.
This patch resets the pgdat bits related to page reclaim only when
kswapd is going to sleep. The comparison with simoop is then

Read latency is improved, write latency is mostly improved but
allocation latency is regressed. kswapd is still reclaiming
inefficiently, pages are being written back from writeback context and a
host of other issues. However, given the change, it needed to be
spelled out why the side-effect was moved.

Patch series "Reduce amount of time kswapd sleeps prematurely", v2.
The series is unusual in that the first patch fixes one problem and
introduces other issues that are noted in the changelog. Patch 2 makes
a minor modification that is worth considering on its own but leaves the
kernel in a state where it behaves badly. It's not until patch 3 that
there is an improvement against baseline.
This was mostly motivated by examining Chris Mason's "simoop" benchmark
which puts the VM under similar pressure to HADOOP. It has been
reported that the benchmark has regressed severely during the last
number of releases. While I cannot reproduce all the same problems
Chris experienced due to hardware limitations, there was a number of
problems on a 2-socket machine with a single disk.

These are latencies. Read/write are threads reading fixed-size random
blocks from a simulated database. The allocation latency is mmaping and
faulting regions of memory. The p50, 95 and p99 reports the worst
latencies for 50% of the samples, 95% and 99% respectively.
For example, the report indicates that while the test was running 99% of
writes completed 99.75% faster. It's worth noting that on a UMA machine
that no difference in performance with simoop was observed so milage
will vary.
It's noted that there is a slight impact to read latencies but it's
mostly due to IO scheduler decisions and offset by the large reduction
in other latencies.
This patch (of 3):
The check in prepare_kswapd_sleep needs to match the one in
balance_pgdat since the latter will return as soon as any one of the
zones in the classzone is above the watermark. This is specially
important for higher order allocations since balance_pgdat will
typically reset the order to zero relying on compaction to create the
higher order pages. Without this patch, prepare_kswapd_sleep fails to
wake up kcompactd since the zone balance check fails.
It was first reported against 4.9.7 that kswapd is failing to wake up
kcompactd due to a mismatch in the zone balance check between
balance_pgdat() and prepare_kswapd_sleep().
balance_pgdat() returns as soon as a single zone satisfies the
allocation but prepare_kswapd_sleep() requires all zones to do +the
same. This causes prepare_kswapd_sleep() to never succeed except in the
order == 0 case and consequently, wakeup_kcompactd() is never called.
For the machine that originally motivated this patch, the state of
compaction from /proc/vmstat looked this way after a day and a half +of
uptime:
compact_migrate_scanned 240496
compact_free_scanned 76238632
compact_isolated 123472
compact_stall 1791
compact_fail 29
compact_success 1762
compact_daemon_wake 0
After applying the patch and about 10 hours of uptime the state looks
like this:
compact_migrate_scanned 59927299
compact_free_scanned 2021075136
compact_isolated 640926
compact_stall 4
compact_fail 2
compact_success 2
compact_daemon_wake 5160
Further notes from Mel that motivated him to pick this patch up and
resend it;
It was observed for the simoop workload (pressures the VM similar to
HADOOP) that kswapd was failing to keep ahead of direct reclaim. The
investigation noted that there was a need to rationalise kswapd
decisions to reclaim with kswapd decisions to sleep. With this patch on
a 2-socket box, there was a 49% reduction in direct reclaim scanning.
However, the impact otherwise is extremely negative. Kswapd reclaim
efficiency dropped from 98% to 76%. simoop has three latency-related
metrics for read, write and allocation (an anonymous mmap and fault).

Of greater concern is that the patch causes swapping and page writes
from kswapd context rose from 0 pages to 4189753 pages during the hour
the workload ran for. By and large, the patch has very bad behaviour
but easily missed as the impact on a UMA machine is negligible.
This patch is included with the data in case a bisection leads to this
area. This patch is also a pre-requisite for the rest of the series.

With the discussion[1], I found it seems there are every PageFlags
functions return bool at this moment so we don't need double negation
any more. Although it's not a problem to keep it, it makes future users
confused to use double negation for them, too.
Remove such possibility.

Frankly sepaking, I like every PageFlags to return bool instead of int.
It will make it clear. AFAIR, Chen Gang had tried it but don't know why
it was not merged at that time.

The round_up() macro generates a couple of unnecessary instructions
in this usage:
48cd: 49 8b 47 50 mov 0x50(%r15),%rax
48d1: 48 83 e8 01 sub $0x1,%rax
48d5: 48 0d ff 0f 00 00 or $0xfff,%rax
48db: 48 83 c0 01 add $0x1,%rax
48df: 48 c1 f8 0c sar $0xc,%rax
48e3: 48 39 c3 cmp %rax,%rbx
48e6: 72 2e jb 4916 <filemap_fault+0x96>
If we change round_up() to ((x) + __round_mask(x, y)) & ~__round_mask(x, y)
then GCC can see through it and remove the mask (because that would be
dead code given the subsequent shift):
48cd: 49 8b 47 50 mov 0x50(%r15),%rax
48d1: 48 05 ff 0f 00 00 add $0xfff,%rax
48d7: 48 c1 e8 0c shr $0xc,%rax
48db: 48 39 c3 cmp %rax,%rbx
48de: 72 2e jb 490e <filemap_fault+0x8e>
But that's problematic because we'd evaluate 'y' twice. Converting
round_up into an inline function prevents it from being used in other
definitions. The easiest thing to do is just change these three usages
of round_up to use DIV_ROUND_UP. Also add an unlikely() because GCC's
heuristic is wrong in this case.

GFP_NOFS context is used for the following 5 reasons currently:
- to prevent from deadlocks when the lock held by the allocation
context would be needed during the memory reclaim
- to prevent from stack overflows during the reclaim because the
allocation is performed from a deep context already
- to prevent lockups when the allocation context depends on other
reclaimers to make a forward progress indirectly
- just in case because this would be safe from the fs POV
- silence lockdep false positives
Unfortunately overuse of this allocation context brings some problems to
the MM. Memory reclaim is much weaker (especially during heavy FS
metadata workloads), OOM killer cannot be invoked because the MM layer
doesn't have enough information about how much memory is freeable by the
FS layer.
In many cases it is far from clear why the weaker context is even used
and so it might be used unnecessarily. We would like to get rid of
those as much as possible. One way to do that is to use the flag in
scopes rather than isolated cases. Such a scope is declared when really
necessary, tracked per task and all the allocation requests from within
the context will simply inherit the GFP_NOFS semantic.
Not only this is easier to understand and maintain because there are
much less problematic contexts than specific allocation requests, this
also helps code paths where FS layer interacts with other layers (e.g.
crypto, security modules, MM etc...) and there is no easy way to convey
the allocation context between the layers.
Introduce memalloc_nofs_{save,restore} API to control the scope of
GFP_NOFS allocation context. This is basically copying
memalloc_noio_{save,restore} API we have for other restricted allocation
context GFP_NOIO. The PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS flag already exists and it is
just an alias for PF_FSTRANS which has been xfs specific until recently.
There are no more PF_FSTRANS users anymore so let's just drop it.
PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS is now checked in the MM layer and drops __GFP_FS
implicitly same as PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO drops __GFP_IO. memalloc_noio_flags
is renamed to current_gfp_context because it now cares about both
PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS and PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO contexts. Xfs code paths preserve
their semantic. kmem_flags_convert() doesn't need to evaluate the flag
anymore.
This patch shouldn't introduce any functional changes.
Let's hope that filesystems will drop direct GFP_NOFS (resp. ~__GFP_FS)
usage as much as possible and only use a properly documented
memalloc_nofs_{save,restore} checkpoints where they are appropriate.

Initscripts can use the information (protection levels) from
/proc/zoneinfo to configure vm.lowmem_reserve_ratio at boot.
vm.lowmem_reserve_ratio is an array of ratios for each configured zone
on the system. If a zone is not populated on an arch, /proc/zoneinfo
suppresses its output.
This results in there not being a 1:1 mapping between the set of zones
emitted by /proc/zoneinfo and the zones configured by
vm.lowmem_reserve_ratio.
This patch shows statistics for non-populated zones in /proc/zoneinfo.
The zones exist and hold a spot in the vm.lowmem_reserve_ratio array.
Without this patch, it is not possible to determine which index in the
array controls which zone if one or more zones on the system are not
populated.
Remaining users of walk_zones_in_node() are unchanged. Files such as
/proc/pagetypeinfo require certain zone data to be initialized properly
for display, which is not done for unpopulated zones.

Before using cluster lock in free_swap_and_cache(), the
swap_info_struct->lock will be held during freeing the swap entry and
acquiring page lock, so the page swap count will not change when testing
page information later. But after using cluster lock, the cluster lock
(or swap_info_struct->lock) will be held only during freeing the swap
entry. So before acquiring the page lock, the page swap count may be
changed in another thread. If the page swap count is not 0, we should
not delete the page from the swap cache. This is fixed via checking
page swap count again after acquiring the page lock.
I found the race when I review the code, so I didn't trigger the race
via a test program. If the race occurs for an anonymous page shared by
multiple processes via fork, multiple pages will be allocated and
swapped in from the swap device for the previously shared one page.
That is, the user-visible runtime effect is more memory will be used and
the access latency for the page will be higher, that is, the performance
regression.

When memory pressure is high, we free MADV_FREE pages. If the pages are
not dirty in pte, the pages could be freed immediately. Otherwise we
can't reclaim them. We put the pages back to anonumous LRU list (by
setting SwapBacked flag) and the pages will be reclaimed in normal
swapout way.
We use normal page reclaim policy. Since MADV_FREE pages are put into
inactive file list, such pages and inactive file pages are reclaimed
according to their age. This is expected, because we don't want to
reclaim too many MADV_FREE pages before used once pages.

madv()'s MADV_FREE indicate pages are 'lazyfree'. They are still
anonymous pages, but they can be freed without pageout. To distinguish
these from normal anonymous pages, we clear their SwapBacked flag.
MADV_FREE pages could be freed without pageout, so they pretty much like
used once file pages. For such pages, we'd like to reclaim them once
there is memory pressure. Also it might be unfair reclaiming MADV_FREE
pages always before used once file pages and we definitively want to
reclaim the pages before other anonymous and file pages.
To speed up MADV_FREE pages reclaim, we put the pages into
LRU_INACTIVE_FILE list. The rationale is LRU_INACTIVE_FILE list is tiny
nowadays and should be full of used once file pages. Reclaiming
MADV_FREE pages will not have much interfere of anonymous and active
file pages. And the inactive file pages and MADV_FREE pages will be
reclaimed according to their age, so we don't reclaim too many MADV_FREE
pages too. Putting the MADV_FREE pages into LRU_INACTIVE_FILE_LIST also
means we can reclaim the pages without swap support. This idea is
suggested by Johannes.
This patch doesn't move MADV_FREE pages to LRU_INACTIVE_FILE list yet to
avoid bisect failure, next patch will do it.
The patch is based on Minchan's original patch.

Patch series "mm: fix some MADV_FREE issues", v5.
We are trying to use MADV_FREE in jemalloc. Several issues are found.
Without solving the issues, jemalloc can't use the MADV_FREE feature.
- Doesn't support system without swap enabled. Because if swap is off,
we can't or can't efficiently age anonymous pages. And since
MADV_FREE pages are mixed with other anonymous pages, we can't
reclaim MADV_FREE pages. In current implementation, MADV_FREE will
fallback to MADV_DONTNEED without swap enabled. But in our
environment, a lot of machines don't enable swap. This will prevent
our setup using MADV_FREE.
- Increases memory pressure. page reclaim bias file pages reclaim
against anonymous pages. This doesn't make sense for MADV_FREE pages,
because those pages could be freed easily and refilled with very
slight penality. Even page reclaim doesn't bias file pages, there is
still an issue, because MADV_FREE pages and other anonymous pages are
mixed together. To reclaim a MADV_FREE page, we probably must scan a
lot of other anonymous pages, which is inefficient. In our test, we
usually see oom with MADV_FREE enabled and nothing without it.
- Accounting. There are two accounting problems. We don't have a global
accounting. If the system is abnormal, we don't know if it's a
problem from MADV_FREE side. The other problem is RSS accounting.
MADV_FREE pages are accounted as normal anon pages and reclaimed
lazily, so application's RSS becomes bigger. This confuses our
workloads. We have monitoring daemon running and if it finds
applications' RSS becomes abnormal, the daemon will kill the
applications even kernel can reclaim the memory easily.
To address the first the two issues, we can either put MADV_FREE pages
into a separate LRU list (Minchan's previous patches and V1 patches), or
put them into LRU_INACTIVE_FILE list (suggested by Johannes). The
patchset use the second idea. The reason is LRU_INACTIVE_FILE list is
tiny nowadays and should be full of used once file pages. So we can
still efficiently reclaim MADV_FREE pages there without interference
with other anon and active file pages. Putting the pages into inactive
file list also has an advantage which allows page reclaim to prioritize
MADV_FREE pages and used once file pages. MADV_FREE pages are put into
the lru list and clear SwapBacked flag, so PageAnon(page) &&
!PageSwapBacked(page) will indicate a MADV_FREE pages. These pages will
directly freed without pageout if they are clean, otherwise normal swap
will reclaim them.
For the third issue, the previous post adds global accounting and a
separate RSS count for MADV_FREE pages. The problem is we never get
accurate accounting for MADV_FREE pages. The pages are mapped to
userspace, can be dirtied without notice from kernel side. To get
accurate accounting, we could write protect the page, but then there is
extra page fault overhead, which people don't want to pay. Jemalloc
guys have concerns about the inaccurate accounting, so this post drops
the accounting patches temporarily. The info exported to
/proc/pid/smaps for MADV_FREE pages are kept, which is the only place we
can get accurate accounting right now.
This patch (of 6):
Johannes pointed out TTU_LZFREE is unnecessary. It's true because we
always have the flag set if we want to do an unmap. For cases we don't
do an unmap, the TTU_LZFREE part of code should never run.
Also the TTU_UNMAP is unnecessary. If no other flags set (for example,
TTU_MIGRATION), an unmap is implied.
The patch includes Johannes's cleanup and dead TTU_ACTION macro removal
code

The backoff mechanism is not needed. If we have MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES
loops without progress, we'll OOM anyway; backing off might cut one or
two iterations off that in the rare OOM case. If we have intermittent
success reclaiming a few pages, the backoff function gets reset also,
and so is of little help in these scenarios.
We might want a backoff function for when there IS progress, but not
enough to be satisfactory. But this isn't that. Remove it.

NR_PAGES_SCANNED counts number of pages scanned since the last page free
event in the allocator. This was used primarily to measure the
reclaimability of zones and nodes, and determine when reclaim should
give up on them. In that role, it has been replaced in the preceding
patches by a different mechanism.
Being implemented as an efficient vmstat counter, it was automatically
exported to userspace as well. It's however unlikely that anyone
outside the kernel is using this counter in any meaningful way.

Commit 246e87a939 ("memcg: fix get_scan_count() for small targets")
sought to avoid high reclaim priorities for memcg by forcing it to scan
a minimum amount of pages when lru_pages >> priority yielded nothing.
This was done at a time when reclaim decisions like dirty throttling
were tied to the priority level.
Nowadays, the only meaningful thing still tied to priority dropping
below DEF_PRIORITY - 2 is gating whether laptop_mode=1 is generally
allowed to write. But that is from an era where direct reclaim was
still allowed to call ->writepage, and kswapd nowadays avoids writes
until it's scanned every clean page in the system. Potential changes to
how quick sc->may_writepage could trigger are of little concern.
Remove the force_scan stuff, as well as the ugly multi-pass target
calculation that it necessitated.

unreclaimable zones in order to prevent massive overreclaim with many
cgroups.
The latter patch effectively neutered the behavior completely for all
but extreme memory pressure. But in those situations we might as well
drop the reclaimers to lower priority levels. Remove the check.

NUMA balancing already checks the watermarks of the target node to
decide whether it's a suitable balancing target. Whether the node is
reclaimable or not is irrelevant when we don't intend to reclaim.

Commit 1d82de618d ("mm, vmscan: make kswapd reclaim in terms of
nodes") allowed laptop_mode=1 to start writing not just when the
priority drops to DEF_PRIORITY - 2 but also when the node is
unreclaimable.
That appears to be a spurious change in this patch as I doubt the series
was tested with laptop_mode, and neither is that particular change
mentioned in the changelog. Remove it, it's still recent.

PF_MEMALLOC direct reclaimers get throttled on a node when the sum of
all free pages in each zone fall below half the min watermark. During
the summation, we want to exclude zones that don't have reclaimables.
Checking the same pgdat over and over again doesn't make sense.

Patch series "mm: kswapd spinning on unreclaimable nodes - fixes and
cleanups".
Jia reported a scenario in which the kswapd of a node indefinitely spins
at 100% CPU usage. We have seen similar cases at Facebook.
The kernel's current method of judging its ability to reclaim a node (or
whether to back off and sleep) is based on the amount of scanned pages
in proportion to the amount of reclaimable pages. In Jia's and our
scenarios, there are no reclaimable pages in the node, however, and the
condition for backing off is never met. Kswapd busyloops in an attempt
to restore the watermarks while having nothing to work with.
This series reworks the definition of an unreclaimable node based not on
scanning but on whether kswapd is able to actually reclaim pages in
MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES (16) consecutive runs. This is the same criteria
the page allocator uses for giving up on direct reclaim and invoking the
OOM killer. If it cannot free any pages, kswapd will go to sleep and
leave further attempts to direct reclaim invocations, which will either
make progress and re-enable kswapd, or invoke the OOM killer.
Patch #1 fixes the immediate problem Jia reported, the remainder are
smaller fixlets, cleanups, and overall phasing out of the old method.
Patch #6 is the odd one out. It's a nice cleanup to get_scan_count(),
and directly related to #5, but in itself not relevant to the series.
If the whole series is too ambitious for 4.11, I would consider the
first three patches fixes, the rest cleanups.
This patch (of 9):
Jia He reports a problem with kswapd spinning at 100% CPU when
requesting more hugepages than memory available in the system:
$ echo 4000 >/proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
top - 13:42:59 up 3:37, 1 user, load average: 1.09, 1.03, 1.01
Tasks: 1 total, 1 running, 0 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie
%Cpu(s): 0.0 us, 12.5 sy, 0.0 ni, 85.5 id, 2.0 wa, 0.0 hi, 0.0 si, 0.0 st
KiB Mem: 31371520 total, 30915136 used, 456384 free, 320 buffers
KiB Swap: 6284224 total, 115712 used, 6168512 free. 48192 cached Mem
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
76 root 20 0 0 0 0 R 100.0 0.000 217:17.29 kswapd3
At that time, there are no reclaimable pages left in the node, but as
kswapd fails to restore the high watermarks it refuses to go to sleep.
Kswapd needs to back away from nodes that fail to balance. Up until
commit 1d82de618d ("mm, vmscan: make kswapd reclaim in terms of
nodes") kswapd had such a mechanism. It considered zones whose
theoretically reclaimable pages it had reclaimed six times over as
unreclaimable and backed away from them. This guard was erroneously
removed as the patch changed the definition of a balanced node.
However, simply restoring this code wouldn't help in the case reported
here: there *are* no reclaimable pages that could be scanned until the
threshold is met. Kswapd would stay awake anyway.
Introduce a new and much simpler way of backing off. If kswapd runs
through MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES (16) cycles without reclaiming a single
page, make it back off from the node. This is the same number of shots
direct reclaim takes before declaring OOM. Kswapd will go to sleep on
that node until a direct reclaimer manages to reclaim some pages, thus
proving the node reclaimable again.

Each slab kmem cache has per cpu array caches. The array caches are
created when the kmem_cache is created, either via kmem_cache_create()
or lazily when the first object is allocated in context of a kmem
enabled memcg. Array caches are replaced by writing to /proc/slabinfo.
Array caches are protected by holding slab_mutex or disabling
interrupts. Array cache allocation and replacement is done by
__do_tune_cpucache() which holds slab_mutex and calls
kick_all_cpus_sync() to interrupt all remote processors which confirms
there are no references to the old array caches.
IPIs are needed when replacing array caches. But when creating a new
array cache, there's no need to send IPIs because there cannot be any
references to the new cache. Outside of memcg kmem accounting these
IPIs occur at boot time, so they're not a problem. But with memcg kmem
accounting each container can create kmem caches, so the IPIs are
wasteful.
Avoid unnecessary IPIs when creating array caches.
Test which reports the IPI count of allocating slab in 10000 memcg:
import os
def ipi_count():
with open("/proc/interrupts") as f:
for l in f:
if 'Function call interrupts' in l:
return int(l.split()[1])
def echo(val, path):
with open(path, "w") as f:
f.write(val)
n = 10000
os.chdir("/mnt/cgroup/memory")
pid = str(os.getpid())
a = ipi_count()
for i in range(n):
os.mkdir(str(i))
echo("1G\n", "%d/memory.limit_in_bytes" % i)
echo("1G\n", "%d/memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes" % i)
echo(pid, "%d/cgroup.procs" % i)
open("/tmp/x", "w").close()
os.unlink("/tmp/x")
b = ipi_count()
print "%d loops: %d => %d (+%d ipis)" % (n, a, b, b-a)
echo(pid, "cgroup.procs")
for i in range(n):
os.rmdir(str(i))

Pull AVR32 removal from Hans-Christian Noren Egtvedt:
"This will remove support for AVR32 architecture from the kernel and

code in drivers is the next step"
Notes from previous discussion about this:
"The AVR32 architecture is not keeping up with the development of the
kernel, and since it shares so much of the drivers with Atmel ARM SoC,
it is starting to hinder these drivers to develop swiftly.
Also, all AVR32 AP7 SoC processors are end of lifed from Atmel (now
Microchip).
Finally, the GCC toolchain is stuck at version 4.2.x, and has not
received any patches since the last release from Atmel;
4.2.4-atmel.1.1.3.avr32linux.1.
When building kernel v4.10, this toolchain is no longer able to
properly link the network stack.
Haavard and I have came to the conclusion that we feel keeping AVR32
on life support offers more obstacles for Atmel ARMs, than it gives
joy to AVR32 users. I also suspect there are very few AVR32 users left
today, if anybody at all"

using a scalable token based algorithm that throttles IO based on
live completion IO stats, similary to blk-wbt. From Omar.

device.
- A series of fixes and improvements for nbd from Josef.
- A series from Omar, removing queue sharing between devices on mostly
legacy drivers. This helps us clean up other bits, if we know that a
queue only has a single device backing. This has been overdue for
more than a decade.
- Fixes for the blk-stats, and improvements to unify the stats and user
windows. This both improves blk-wbt, and enables other users to
register a need to receive IO stats for a device. From Omar.
- blk-throttle improvements from Shaohua. This provides a scalable
framework for implementing scalable priotization - particularly for
blk-mq, but applicable to any type of block device. The interface is
marked experimental for now.

The x86 conversion to the generic GUP code included a small change which causes
crashes and data corruption in the pmem code - not good.
The root cause is that the /dev/pmem driver code implicitly relies on the x86
get_user_pages() implementation doing a get_page() on the page refcount, because
get_page() does a get_zone_device_page() which properly refcounts pmem's separate
page struct arrays that are not present in the regular page struct structures.
(The pmem driver does this because it can cover huge memory areas.)
But the x86 conversion to the generic GUP code changed the get_page() to
page_cache_get_speculative() which is faster but doesn't do the
get_zone_device_page() call the pmem code relies on.
One way to solve the regression would be to change the generic GUP code to use
get_page(), but that would slow things down a bit and punish other generic-GUP
using architectures for an x86-ism they did not care about. (Arguably the pmem
driver was probably not working reliably for them: but nvdimm is an Intel
feature, so non-x86 exposure is probably still limited.)
So restructure the pmem code's interface with the MM instead: get rid of the
get/put_zone_device_page() distinction, integrate put_zone_device_page() into
__put_page() and and restructure the pmem completion-wait and teardown machinery:
Kirill points out that the calls to {get,put}_dev_pagemap() can be
removed from the mm fast path if we take a single get_dev_pagemap()
reference to signify that the page is alive and use the final put of the
page to drop that reference.
This does require some care to make sure that any waits for the
percpu_ref to drop to zero occur *after* devm_memremap_page_release(),
since it now maintains its own elevated reference.
This speeds up things while also making the pmem refcounting more robust going
forward.

Currently, file system's writepages() function must not fail with an
ENOMEM, since if they do, it's possible for buffered data to be lost.
This is because on a data integrity writeback writepages() gets called
but once, and if it returns ENOMEM, if you're lucky the error will get
reflected back to the userspace process calling fsync(). If you
aren't lucky, the user is unmounting the file system, and the dirty
pages will simply be lost.
For this reason, file system code generally will use GFP_NOFS, and in
some cases, will retry the allocation in a loop, on the theory that
"kernel livelocks are temporary; data loss is forever".
Unfortunately, this can indeed cause livelocks, since inside the
writepages() call, the file system is holding various mutexes, and
these mutexes may prevent the OOM killer from killing its targetted
victim if it is also holding on to those mutexes.
A better solution would be to allow writepages() to call the memory
allocator with flags that give greater latitude to the allocator to
fail, and then release its locks and return ENOMEM, and in the case of
background writeback, the writes can be retried at a later time. In
the case of data-integrity writeback retry after waiting a brief
amount of time.

This reverts commit 2947ba054a.
Dan Williams reported dax-pmem kernel warnings with the following signature:
WARNING: CPU: 8 PID: 245 at lib/percpu-refcount.c:155 percpu_ref_switch_to_atomic_rcu+0x1f5/0x200
percpu ref (dax_pmem_percpu_release [dax_pmem]) <= 0 (0) after switching to atomic
... and bisected it to this commit, which suggests possible memory corruption
caused by the x86 fast-GUP conversion.
He also pointed out:
"
This is similar to the backtrace when we were not properly handling
pud faults and was fixed with this commit: 220ced1676 "mm: fix
get_user_pages() vs device-dax pud mappings"
I've found some missing _devmap checks in the generic
get_user_pages_fast() path, but this does not fix the regression
[...]
"
So given that there are known bugs, and a pretty robust looking bisection
points to this commit suggesting that are unknown bugs in the conversion
as well, revert it for the time being - we'll re-try in v4.13.

Commit 6afcf8ef0c ("mm, compaction: fix NR_ISOLATED_* stats for pfn
based migration") moved the dec_node_page_state() call (along with the
page_is_file_cache() call) to after putback_lru_page().
But page_is_file_cache() can change after putback_lru_page() is called,
so it should be called before putback_lru_page(), as it was before that
patch, to prevent NR_ISOLATE_* stats from going negative.
Without this fix, non-CONFIG_SMP kernels end up hanging in the
while(too_many_isolated()) { congestion_wait() } loop in
shrink_active_list() due to the negative stats.

This reverts commit 374ad05ab6.
While the patch worked great for userspace allocations, the fact that
softirq loses the per-cpu allocator caused problems. It needs to be
redone taking into account that a separate list is needed for hard/soft
IRQs or alternatively find a cheap way of detecting reentry due to an
interrupt. Both are possible but sufficiently tricky that it shouldn't
be rushed.
Jesper had one method for allowing softirqs but reported that the cost
was high enough that it performed similarly to a plain revert. His
figures for netperf TCP_STREAM were as follows
Baseline v4.10.0 : 60316 Mbit/s
Current 4.11.0-rc6: 47491 Mbit/s
Jesper's patch : 60662 Mbit/s
This patch : 60106 Mbit/s
As this is a regression, I wish to revert to noirq allocator for now and
go back to the drawing board.

A group of Linux kernel hackers reported chasing a bug that resulted
from their assumption that SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU provided an existence
guarantee, that is, that no block from such a slab would be reallocated
during an RCU read-side critical section. Of course, that is not the
case. Instead, SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU only prevents freeing of an entire
slab of blocks.
However, there is a phrase for this, namely "type safety". This commit
therefore renames SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU in order
to avoid future instances of this sort of confusion.

The MM-notifier code currently dynamically initializes the srcu_struct
named "srcu" at subsys_initcall() time, and includes a BUG_ON() to check
this initialization in do_mmu_notifier_register(). Unfortunately, there
is no foolproof way to verify that an srcu_struct has been initialized,
given the possibility of an srcu_struct being allocated on the stack or
on the heap. This means that creating an srcu_struct_is_initialized()
function is not a reasonable course of action. Nor is peppering
do_mmu_notifier_register() with SRCU-specific #ifdefs an attractive
alternative.
This commit therefore uses DEFINE_STATIC_SRCU() to initialize
this srcu_struct at compile time, thus eliminating both the
subsys_initcall()-time initialization and the runtime BUG_ON().

Both MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE handled with down_read(mmap_sem).

pmd_trans_huge(*pmd) == 0 (without ptl)
// skip the pmd
set_pmd_at();
// pmd is re-established
It results in MADV_DONTNEED skipping the pmd, leaving it not cleared.
It violates MADV_DONTNEED interface and can result is userspace
misbehaviour.
Basically it's the same race as with numa balancing in
change_huge_pmd(), but a bit simpler to mitigate: we don't need to
preserve dirty/young flags here due to MADV_FREE functionality.

Stress testing of the current z3fold implementation on a 8-core system
revealed it was possible that a z3fold page deleted from its unbuddied
list in z3fold_alloc() would be put on another unbuddied list by
z3fold_free() while z3fold_alloc() is still processing it. This has
been introduced with commit 5a27aa822 ("z3fold: add kref refcounting")
due to the removal of special handling of a z3fold page not on any list
in z3fold_free().
To fix this, the z3fold page lock should be taken in z3fold_alloc()
before the pool lock is released. To avoid deadlocking, we just try to
lock the page as soon as we get a hold of it, and if trylock fails, we
drop this page and take the next one.

We currently have 2 specific WQ_RECLAIM workqueues in the mm code.
vmstat_wq for updating pcp stats and lru_add_drain_wq dedicated to drain
per cpu lru caches. This seems more than necessary because both can run
on a single WQ. Both do not block on locks requiring a memory
allocation nor perform any allocations themselves. We will save one
rescuer thread this way.
On the other hand drain_all_pages() queues work on the system wq which
doesn't have rescuer and so this depend on memory allocation (when all
workers are stuck allocating and new ones cannot be created).
Initially we thought this would be more of a theoretical problem but

: but for no good reason I happened to do "cat /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh"

: kthreadd waiting for completion of flush_work in drain_all_pages().
This worker should be using WQ_RECLAIM as well in order to guarantee a
forward progress. We can reuse the same one as for lru draining and
vmstat.

Just as observed in commit 4b0ece6fa0 ("mm: migrate: fix
remove_migration_pte() for ksm pages"), you cannot use page->index
calculations on ksm pages.
page_vma_mapped_walk() is relying on __vma_address(), where a ksm page
can lead it off the end of the page table, and into whatever nonsense is
in the next page, ending as an oops inside check_pte()'s pte_page().
KSM tells page_vma_mapped_walk() exactly where to look for the page, it
does not need any page->index calculation: and that's so also for all
the normal and file and anon pages - just not for THPs and their
subpages. Get out early in most cases: instead of a PageKsm test, move
down the earlier not-THP-page test, as suggested by Kirill.
I'm also slightly worried that this loop can stray into other vmas, so
added a vm_end test to prevent surprises; though I have not imagined
anything worse than a very contrived case, in which a page mlocked in
the next vma might be reclaimed because it is not mlocked in this vma.

Add memblock_cap_memory_range() which will remove all the memblock regions
except the memory range specified in the arguments. In addition, rework is
done on memblock_mem_limit_remove_map() to re-implement it using
memblock_cap_memory_range().
This function, like memblock_mem_limit_remove_map(), will not remove
memblocks with MEMMAP_NOMAP attribute as they may be mapped and accessed
later as "device memory."
See the commit a571d4eb55 ("mm/memblock.c: add new infrastructure to
address the mem limit issue").
This function is used, in a succeeding patch in the series of arm64 kdump
suuport, to limit the range of usable memory, or System RAM, on crash dump
kernel.

Relying on free_reserved_area() to call ftrace to free init memory proved to
not be sufficient. The issue is that on x86, when debug_pagealloc is
enabled, the init memory is not freed, but simply set as not present. Since
ftrace was uninformed of this, starting function tracing still tries to
update pages that are not present according to the page tables, causing
ftrace to bug, as well as killing the kernel itself.
Instead of relying on free_reserved_area(), have init/main.c call ftrace
directly just before it frees the init memory. Then it needs to use
__init_begin and __init_end to know where the init memory location is.
Looking at all archs (and testing what I can), it appears that this should
work for each of them.

Changes to hugetlbfs reservation maps is a two step process. The first
step is a call to region_chg to determine what needs to be changed, and
prepare that change. This should be followed by a call to call to
region_add to commit the change, or region_abort to abort the change.
The error path in hugetlb_reserve_pages called region_abort after a
failed call to region_chg. As a result, the adds_in_progress counter in
the reservation map is off by 1. This is caught by a VM_BUG_ON in
resv_map_release when the reservation map is freed.
syzkaller fuzzer (when using an injected kmalloc failure) found this
bug, that resulted in the following:

Disable kasan after the first report. There are several reasons for
this:
- Single bug quite often has multiple invalid memory accesses causing
storm in the dmesg.
- Write OOB access might corrupt metadata so the next report will print
bogus alloc/free stacktraces.
- Reports after the first easily could be not bugs by itself but just
side effects of the first one.
Given that multiple reports usually only do harm, it makes sense to
disable kasan after the first one. If user wants to see all the
reports, the boot-time parameter kasan_multi_shot must be used.

to also enable cgroup-awareness in the list_lru the shadow nodes sit on.
Consequently, all shadow nodes are sitting on a global (per-NUMA node)
list, while the shrinker applies the limits according to the amount of
cache in the cgroup its shrinking. The result is excessive pressure on
the shadow nodes from cgroups that have very little cache.
Enable memcg-mode on the shadow node LRUs, such that per-cgroup limits
are applied to per-cgroup lists.

Since commit 383776fa75 ("locking/lockdep: Handle statically initialized
PER_CPU locks properly") we try to collapse per-cpu locks into a single
class by giving them all the same key. For this key we choose the canonical
address of the per-cpu object, which would be the offset into the per-cpu
area.
This has two problems:
- there is a case where we run !0 lock->key through static_obj() and
expect this to pass; it doesn't for canonical pointers.
- 0 is a valid canonical address.
Cure both issues by redefining the canonical address as the address of the
per-cpu variable on the boot CPU.
Since I didn't want to rely on CPU0 being the boot-cpu, or even existing at
all, track the boot CPU in a variable.

Note, this still does not allow for tracing .init text of modules, as
modules require different work for freeing its init code.

such use will be likely race prone.
We do not bother with converting congested->bdi to a proper refcounted

cache fails to be initialized, the swap should operate properly without
the swap slots cache. And the use_swap_slot_cache check later in the

This is a preparation patch for the transition of x86 to the generic GUP_fast()
implementation.
Unlike generic GUP_fast(), the x86 version makes all pages it touches
referenced. It seems required for GRU and EPT.

Commit bfc8c90139 ("mem-hotplug: implement get/put_online_mems")
introduced new functions get/put_online_mems() and mem_hotplug_begin/end()
in order to allow similar semantics for memory hotplug like for cpu
hotplug.
The corresponding functions for cpu hotplug are get/put_online_cpus()
and cpu_hotplug_begin/done() for cpu hotplug.
The commit however missed to introduce functions that would serialize
memory hotplug operations like they are done for cpu hotplug with
cpu_maps_update_begin/done().
This basically leaves mem_hotplug.active_writer unprotected and allows
concurrent writers to modify it, which may lead to problems as outlined
by commit f931ab479d ("mm: fix devm_memremap_pages crash, use
mem_hotplug_{begin, done}").
That commit was extended again with commit b5d24fda9c ("mm,
devm_memremap_pages: hold device_hotplug lock over mem_hotplug_{begin,
done}") which serializes memory hotplug operations for some call sites
by using the device_hotplug lock.
In addition with commit 3fc2192410 ("mm: validate device_hotplug is held
for memory hotplug") a sanity check was added to mem_hotplug_begin() to
verify that the device_hotplug lock is held.
This in turn triggers the following warning on s390:
WARNING: CPU: 6 PID: 1 at drivers/base/core.c:643 assert_held_device_hotplug+0x4a/0x58
Call Trace:
assert_held_device_hotplug+0x40/0x58)

kernel_init_freeable+0x228/0x2d8
kernel_init+0x2a/0x140
kernel_thread_starter+0x6/0xc
One possible fix would be to add more lock_device_hotplug() and
unlock_device_hotplug() calls around each call site of
mem_hotplug_begin/end(). But that would give the device_hotplug lock
additional semantics it better should not have (serialize memory hotplug
operations).
Instead add a new memory_add_remove_lock which has the similar semantics
like cpu_add_remove_lock for cpu hotplug.
To keep things hopefully a bit easier the lock will be locked and unlocked
within the mem_hotplug_begin/end() functions.

When vmalloc() fails it prints a very lengthy message with all the
details about memory consumption assuming that it happened due to OOM.
However, vmalloc() can also fail due to fatal signal pending. In such
case the message is quite confusing because it suggests that it is OOM
but the numbers suggest otherwise. The messages can also pollute
console considerably.
Don't warn when vmalloc() fails due to fatal signal pending.

If a PER_CPU struct which contains a spin_lock is statically initialized
via:
DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct foo, bla) = {
.lock = __SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED(bla.lock)
};
then lockdep assigns a seperate key to each lock because the logic for
assigning a key to statically initialized locks is to use the address as
the key. With per CPU locks the address is obvioulsy different on each CPU.
That's wrong, because all locks should have the same key.
To solve this the following modifications are required:
1) Extend the is_kernel/module_percpu_addr() functions to hand back the
canonical address of the per CPU address, i.e. the per CPU address
minus the per CPU offset.
2) Check the lock address with these functions and if the per CPU check
matches use the returned canonical address as the lock key, so all per
CPU locks have the same key.
3) Move the static_obj(key) check into look_up_lock_class() so this check
can be avoided for statically initialized per CPU locks. That's
required because the canonical address fails the static_obj(key) check
for obvious reasons.

This patch aligns MODULES_END to the beginning of the fixmap section.
It optimizes the space available for both sections. The address is
pre-computed based on the number of pages required by the fixmap
section.
It will allow GDT remapping in the fixmap section. The current
MODULES_END static address does not provide enough space for the kernel
to support a large number of processors.

- a trivial patch to drop an unused param from pcpu_get_pages()

Merge 5-level page table prep from Kirill Shutemov:
"Here's relatively low-risk part of 5-level paging patchset. Merging it
now will make x86 5-level paging enabling in v4.12 easier.
The first patch is actually x86-specific: detect 5-level paging
support. It boils down to single define.
The rest of patchset converts Linux MMU abstraction from 4- to 5-level
paging.
Enabling of new abstraction in most cases requires adding single line
of code in arch-specific code. The rest is taken care by asm-generic/.
Changes to mm/ code are mostly mechanical: add support for new page
table level -- p4d_t -- where we deal with pud_t now.

quarantine_remove_cache() frees all pending objects that belong to the
cache, before we destroy the cache itself. However there are currently
two possibilities how it can fail to do so.
First, another thread can hold some of the objects from the cache in
temp list in quarantine_put(). quarantine_put() has a windows of
enabled interrupts, and on_each_cpu() in quarantine_remove_cache() can
finish right in that window. These objects will be later freed into the
destroyed cache.
Then, quarantine_reduce() has the same problem. It grabs a batch of
objects from the global quarantine, then unlocks quarantine_lock and
then frees the batch. quarantine_remove_cache() can finish while some
objects from the cache are still in the local to_free list in
quarantine_reduce().
Fix the race with quarantine_put() by disabling interrupts for the whole
duration of quarantine_put(). In combination with on_each_cpu() in
quarantine_remove_cache() it ensures that quarantine_remove_cache()
either sees the objects in the per-cpu list or in the global list.
Fix the race with quarantine_reduce() by protecting quarantine_reduce()
with srcu critical section and then doing synchronize_srcu() at the end
of quarantine_remove_cache().
I've done some assessment of how good synchronize_srcu() works in this
case. And on a 4 CPU VM I see that it blocks waiting for pending read
critical sections in about 2-3% of cases. Which looks good to me.
I suspect that these races are the root cause of some GPFs that I
episodically hit. Previously I did not have any explanation for them.

I am not sure about backporting. The bug is quite hard to trigger, I've
seen it few times during our massive continuous testing (however, it
could be cause of some other episodic stray crashes as it leads to
memory corruption...). If it is triggered, the consequences are very
bad -- almost definite bad memory corruption. The fix is non trivial
and has chances of introducing new bugs. I am also not sure how
actively people use KASAN on older releases.

with large amounts of RAM. quarantine_remove_cache() needs to scan
whole quarantine in order to take out all objects belonging to the
cache. Quarantine is currently 1/32-th of RAM, e.g. on a machine with
256GB of memory that will be 8GB. Moreover quarantine scanning is a
walk over uncached linked list, which is slow.
Add cond_resched() after scanning of each non-empty batch of objects.
Batches are specifically kept of reasonable size for quarantine_put().
On a machine with 256GB of RAM we should have ~512 non-empty batches,
each with 16MB of objects.

The following test case triggers BUG() in munlock_vma_pages_range():
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int fd;
system("mount -t tmpfs -o huge=always none /mnt");
fd = open("/mnt/test", O_CREAT | O_RDWR);
ftruncate(fd, 4UL << 20);
mmap(NULL, 4UL << 20, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED | MAP_FIXED | MAP_LOCKED, fd, 0);
mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED | MAP_LOCKED, fd, 0);
munlockall();
return 0;
}
The second mmap() create PTE-mapping of the first huge page in file. It
makes kernel munlock the page as we never keep PTE-mapped page mlocked.
On munlockall() when we handle vma created by the first mmap(),
munlock_vma_page() returns page_mask == 0, as the page is not mlocked
anymore. On next iteration follow_page_mask() return tail page, but
page_mask is HPAGE_NR_PAGES - 1. It makes us skip to the first tail
page of the next huge page and step on
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PageMlocked(page)).
The fix is not use the page_mask from follow_page_mask() at all. It has
no use for us.

userfaultfd_remove() has to be execute before zapping the pagetables or
UFFDIO_COPY could keep filling pages after zap_page_range returned,
which would result in non zero data after a MADV_DONTNEED.
However userfaultfd_remove() may have to release the mmap_sem. This was
handled correctly in MADV_REMOVE, but MADV_DONTNEED accessed a
potentially stale vma (the very vma passed to zap_page_range(vma, ...)).
The fix consists in revalidating the vma in case userfaultfd_remove()
had to release the mmap_sem.
This also optimizes away an unnecessary down_read/up_read in the
MADV_REMOVE case if UFFD_EVENT_FORK had to be delivered.
It all remains zero runtime cost in case CONFIG_USERFAULTFD=n as
userfaultfd_remove() will be defined as "true" at build time.

This is a chicken and egg issue where the kernel try to get free memory
when allocating per node data in mem_cgroup_init(), but in that path
mem_cgroup_soft_limit_reclaim() is called which assumes that these data
are allocated.
As mem_cgroup_soft_limit_reclaim() is best effort, it should return when
these data are not yet allocated.
This patch also fixes potential null pointer access in
mem_cgroup_remove_from_trees() and mem_cgroup_update_tree().

bdi_writeback_congested structures get created for each blkcg and bdi
regardless whether bdi is registered or not. When they are created in
unregistered bdi and the request queue (and thus bdi) is then destroyed
while blkg still holds reference to bdi_writeback_congested structure,
this structure will be referencing freed bdi and last wb_congested_put()
will try to remove the structure from already freed bdi.
With commit 165a5e22fa "block: Move bdi_unregister() to
del_gendisk()", SCSI started to destroy bdis without calling
bdi_unregister() first (previously it was calling bdi_unregister() even
for unregistered bdis) and thus the code detaching
bdi_writeback_congested in cgwb_bdi_destroy() was not triggered and we
started hitting this use-after-free bug. It is enough to boot a KVM
instance with virtio-scsi device to trigger this behavior.
Fix the problem by detaching bdi_writeback_congested structures in
bdi_exit() instead of bdi_unregister(). This is also more logical as
they can get attached to bdi regardless whether it ever got registered
or not.

SCSI can call device_add_disk() several times for one request queue when
a device in unbound and bound, creating new gendisk each time. This will
lead to bdi being repeatedly registered and unregistered. This was not a
big problem until commit 165a5e22fa "block: Move bdi_unregister() to
del_gendisk()" since bdi was only registered repeatedly (bdi_register()
handles repeated calls fine, only we ended up leaking reference to
gendisk due to overwriting bdi->owner) but unregistered only in
blk_cleanup_queue() which didn't get called repeatedly. After
165a5e22fa we were doing correct bdi_register() - bdi_unregister()
cycles however bdi_unregister() is not prepared for it. So make sure
bdi_unregister() cleans up bdi in such a way that it is prepared for
a possible following bdi_register() call.
An easy way to provoke this behavior is to enable
CONFIG_DEBUG_TEST_DRIVER_REMOVE and use scsi_debug driver to create a
scsi disk which immediately hangs without this fix.

Pull vfs 'statx()' update from Al Viro.
This adds the new extended stat() interface that internally subsumes our
previous stat interfaces, and allows user mode to specify in more detail
what kind of information it wants.
It also allows for some explicit synchronization information to be

is the cached value ok, or do you need open/close consistency, or what?

Add a system call to make extended file information available, including
file creation and some attribute flags where available through the
underlying filesystem.
The getattr inode operation is altered to take two additional arguments: a
u32 request_mask and an unsigned int flags that indicate the
synchronisation mode. This change is propagated to the vfs_getattr*()
function.
Functions like vfs_stat() are now inline wrappers around new functions
vfs_statx() and vfs_statx_fd() to reduce stack usage.
========
OVERVIEW
========
The idea was initially proposed as a set of xattrs that could be retrieved
with getxattr(), but the general preference proved to be for a new syscall
with an extended stat structure.
A number of requests were gathered for features to be included. The
following have been included:
(1) Make the fields a consistent size on all arches and make them large.
(2) Spare space, request flags and information flags are provided for
future expansion.
(3) Better support for the y2038 problem [Arnd Bergmann] (tv_sec is an
__s64).
(4) Creation time: The SMB protocol carries the creation time, which could
be exported by Samba, which will in turn help CIFS make use of
FS-Cache as that can be used for coherency data (stx_btime).
This is also specified in NFSv4 as a recommended attribute and could
be exported by NFSD [Steve French].
(5) Lightweight stat: Ask for just those details of interest, and allow a
netfs (such as NFS) to approximate anything not of interest, possibly
without going to the server [Trond Myklebust, Ulrich Drepper, Andreas
Dilger] (AT_STATX_DONT_SYNC).
(6) Heavyweight stat: Force a netfs to go to the server, even if it thinks
its cached attributes are up to date [Trond Myklebust]
(AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC).
And the following have been left out for future extension:
(7) Data version number: Could be used by userspace NFS servers [Aneesh
Kumar].
Can also be used to modify fill_post_wcc() in NFSD which retrieves
i_version directly, but has just called vfs_getattr(). It could get
it from the kstat struct if it used vfs_xgetattr() instead.
(There's disagreement on the exact semantics of a single field, since
not all filesystems do this the same way).
(8) BSD stat compatibility: Including more fields from the BSD stat such
as creation time (st_btime) and inode generation number (st_gen)
[Jeremy Allison, Bernd Schubert].
(9) Inode generation number: Useful for FUSE and userspace NFS servers
[Bernd Schubert].
(This was asked for but later deemed unnecessary with the
open-by-handle capability available and caused disagreement as to
whether it's a security hole or not).
(10) Extra coherency data may be useful in making backups [Andreas Dilger].
(No particular data were offered, but things like last backup
timestamp, the data version number and the DOS archive bit would come
into this category).
(11) Allow the filesystem to indicate what it can/cannot provide: A
filesystem can now say it doesn't support a standard stat feature if
that isn't available, so if, for instance, inode numbers or UIDs don't
exist or are fabricated locally...
(This requires a separate system call - I have an fsinfo() call idea

(12) Store a 16-byte volume ID in the superblock that can be returned in
struct xstat [Steve French].
(Deferred to fsinfo).
(13) Include granularity fields in the time data to indicate the
granularity of each of the times (NFSv4 time_delta) [Steve French].
(Deferred to fsinfo).
(14) FS_IOC_GETFLAGS value. These could be translated to BSD's st_flags.
Note that the Linux IOC flags are a mess and filesystems such as Ext4
define flags that aren't in linux/fs.h, so translation in the kernel
may be a necessity (or, possibly, we provide the filesystem type too).
(Some attributes are made available in stx_attributes, but the general
feeling was that the IOC flags were to ext[234]-specific and shouldn't
be exposed through statx this way).
(15) Mask of features available on file (eg: ACLs, seclabel) [Brad Boyer,
Michael Kerrisk].
(Deferred, probably to fsinfo. Finding out if there's an ACL or
seclabal might require extra filesystem operations).
(16) Femtosecond-resolution timestamps [Dave Chinner].
(A __reserved field has been left in the statx_timestamp struct for
this - if there proves to be a need).
(17) A set multiple attributes syscall to go with this.
===============
NEW SYSTEM CALL
===============
The new system call is:
int ret = statx(int dfd,
const char *filename,
unsigned int flags,
unsigned int mask,
struct statx *buffer);
The dfd, filename and flags parameters indicate the file to query, in a
similar way to fstatat(). There is no equivalent of lstat() as that can be
emulated with statx() by passing AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW in flags. There is
also no equivalent of fstat() as that can be emulated by passing a NULL
filename to statx() with the fd of interest in dfd.
Whether or not statx() synchronises the attributes with the backing store
can be controlled by OR'ing a value into the flags argument (this typically
only affects network filesystems):
(1) AT_STATX_SYNC_AS_STAT tells statx() to behave as stat() does in this
respect.
(2) AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC will require a network filesystem to synchronise
its attributes with the server - which might require data writeback to
occur to get the timestamps correct.
(3) AT_STATX_DONT_SYNC will suppress synchronisation with the server in a
network filesystem. The resulting values should be considered
approximate.
mask is a bitmask indicating the fields in struct statx that are of
interest to the caller. The user should set this to STATX_BASIC_STATS to
get the basic set returned by stat(). It should be noted that asking for
more information may entail extra I/O operations.
buffer points to the destination for the data. This must be 256 bytes in
size.
======================
MAIN ATTRIBUTES RECORD
======================
The following structures are defined in which to return the main attribute
set:
struct statx_timestamp {
__s64 tv_sec;
__s32 tv_nsec;
__s32 __reserved;
};
struct statx {
__u32 stx_mask;
__u32 stx_blksize;
__u64 stx_attributes;
__u32 stx_nlink;
__u32 stx_uid;
__u32 stx_gid;
__u16 stx_mode;
__u16 __spare0[1];
__u64 stx_ino;
__u64 stx_size;
__u64 stx_blocks;
__u64 __spare1[1];
struct statx_timestamp stx_atime;
struct statx_timestamp stx_btime;
struct statx_timestamp stx_ctime;
struct statx_timestamp stx_mtime;
__u32 stx_rdev_major;
__u32 stx_rdev_minor;
__u32 stx_dev_major;
__u32 stx_dev_minor;
__u64 __spare2[14];
};
The defined bits in request_mask and stx_mask are:
STATX_TYPE Want/got stx_mode & S_IFMT
STATX_MODE Want/got stx_mode & ~S_IFMT
STATX_NLINK Want/got stx_nlink
STATX_UID Want/got stx_uid
STATX_GID Want/got stx_gid
STATX_ATIME Want/got stx_atime{,_ns}
STATX_MTIME Want/got stx_mtime{,_ns}
STATX_CTIME Want/got stx_ctime{,_ns}
STATX_INO Want/got stx_ino
STATX_SIZE Want/got stx_size
STATX_BLOCKS Want/got stx_blocks
STATX_BASIC_STATS [The stuff in the normal stat struct]
STATX_BTIME Want/got stx_btime{,_ns}
STATX_ALL [All currently available stuff]
stx_btime is the file creation time, stx_mask is a bitmask indicating the
data provided and __spares*[] are where as-yet undefined fields can be
placed.
Time fields are structures with separate seconds and nanoseconds fields
plus a reserved field in case we want to add even finer resolution. Note
that times will be negative if before 1970; in such a case, the nanosecond
fields will also be negative if not zero.
The bits defined in the stx_attributes field convey information about a
file, how it is accessed, where it is and what it does. The following
attributes map to FS_*_FL flags and are the same numerical value:
STATX_ATTR_COMPRESSED File is compressed by the fs
STATX_ATTR_IMMUTABLE File is marked immutable
STATX_ATTR_APPEND File is append-only
STATX_ATTR_NODUMP File is not to be dumped
STATX_ATTR_ENCRYPTED File requires key to decrypt in fs
Within the kernel, the supported flags are listed by:
KSTAT_ATTR_FS_IOC_FLAGS
[Are any other IOC flags of sufficient general interest to be exposed
through this interface?]
New flags include:
STATX_ATTR_AUTOMOUNT Object is an automount trigger
These are for the use of GUI tools that might want to mark files specially,
depending on what they are.
Fields in struct statx come in a number of classes:
(0) stx_dev_*, stx_blksize.
These are local system information and are always available.
(1) stx_mode, stx_nlinks, stx_uid, stx_gid, stx_[amc]time, stx_ino,
stx_size, stx_blocks.
These will be returned whether the caller asks for them or not. The
corresponding bits in stx_mask will be set to indicate whether they
actually have valid values.
If the caller didn't ask for them, then they may be approximated. For
example, NFS won't waste any time updating them from the server,
unless as a byproduct of updating something requested.
If the values don't actually exist for the underlying object (such as
UID or GID on a DOS file), then the bit won't be set in the stx_mask,
even if the caller asked for the value. In such a case, the returned
value will be a fabrication.
Note that there are instances where the type might not be valid, for
instance Windows reparse points.
(2) stx_rdev_*.
This will be set only if stx_mode indicates we're looking at a
blockdev or a chardev, otherwise will be 0.
(3) stx_btime.
Similar to (1), except this will be set to 0 if it doesn't exist.
=======
TESTING
=======
The following test program can be used to test the statx system call:
samples/statx/test-statx.c
Just compile and run, passing it paths to the files you want to examine.
The file is built automatically if CONFIG_SAMPLES is enabled.
Here's some example output. Firstly, an NFS directory that crosses to
another FSID. Note that the AUTOMOUNT attribute is set because transiting
this directory will cause d_automount to be invoked by the VFS.

task_struct::signal and task_struct::sighand are pointers, which would normally make it
straightforward to not define those types in sched.h.
That is not so, because the types are accompanied by a myriad of APIs (macros and inline
functions) that dereference them.
Split the types and the APIs out of sched.h and move them into a new header, <linux/sched/signal.h>.
With this change sched.h does not know about 'struct signal' and 'struct sighand' anymore,
trying to put accessors into sched.h as a test fails the following way:
./include/linux/sched.h: In function ‘test_signal_types’:
./include/linux/sched.h:2461:18: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type ‘struct signal_struct’
^
This reduces the size and complexity of sched.h significantly.
Update all headers and .c code that relied on getting the signal handling
functionality from <linux/sched.h> to include <linux/sched/signal.h>.
The list of affected files in the preparatory patch was partly generated by
grepping for the APIs, and partly by doing coverage build testing, both
all[yes|mod|def|no]config builds on 64-bit and 32-bit x86, and an array of
cross-architecture builds.
Nevertheless some (trivial) build breakage is still expected related to rare
Kconfig combinations and in-flight patches to various kernel code, but most
of it should be handled by this patch.

<linux/kasan.h> is a low level header that is included early
in affected kernel headers. But it includes <linux/sched.h>
which complicates the cleanup of sched.h dependencies.
But kasan.h has almost no need for sched.h: its only use of
scheduler functionality is in two inline functions which are
not used very frequently - so uninline kasan_enable_current()
and kasan_disable_current().
Also add a <linux/sched.h> dependency to a .c file that depended
on kasan.h including it.
This paves the way to remove the <linux/sched.h> include from kasan.h.

Pull IDR rewrite from Matthew Wilcox:
"The most significant part of the following is the patch to rewrite the
IDR & IDA to be clients of the radix tree. But there's much more,
including an enhancement of the IDA to be significantly more space
efficient, an IDR & IDA test suite, some improvements to the IDR API
(and driver changes to take advantage of those improvements), several
improvements to the radix tree test suite and RCU annotations.
The IDR & IDA rewrite had a good spin in linux-next and Andrew's tree
for most of the last cycle. Coupled with the IDR test suite, I feel
pretty confident that any remaining bugs are quite hard to hit. 0-day
did a great job of watching my git tree and pointing out problems; as
it hit them, I added new test-cases to be sure not to be caught the
same way twice"
Willy goes on to expand a bit on the IDR rewrite rationale:
"The radix tree and the IDR use very similar data structures.
Merging the two codebases lets us share the memory allocation pools,
and results in a net deletion of 500 lines of code. It also opens up
the possibility of exposing more of the features of the radix tree to
users of the IDR (and I have some interesting patches along those
lines waiting for 4.12)
It also shrinks the size of the 'struct idr' from 40 bytes to 24 which
will shrink a fair few data structures that embed an IDR"

This patch makes arch-independent testcases for RODATA. Both x86 and
x86_64 already have testcases for RODATA, But they are arch-specific
because using inline assembly directly.
And cacheflush.h is not a suitable location for rodata-test related
things. Since they were in cacheflush.h, If someone change the state of
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA_TEST, It cause overhead of kernel build.
To solve the above issues, write arch-independent testcases and move it
to shared location.

git grep -l 'atomic_inc.*mm_count' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc(&\(.*\)->mm_count);/mmgrab\(\1\);/'
git grep -l 'atomic_inc.*mm_count' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc(&\(.*\)\.mm_count);/mmgrab\(\&\1\);/'
This is needed for a later patch that hooks into the helper, but might
be a worthwhile cleanup on its own.

Now that %z is standartised in C99 there is no reason to support %Z.
Unlike %L it doesn't even make format strings smaller.

Change the zpool/compressor param callback function to release the
zswap_pools_lock spinlock before calling param_set_charp, since that
function may sleep when it calls kmalloc with GFP_KERNEL.
While this problem has existed for a while, I wasn't able to trigger it
using a tight loop changing either/both the zpool and compressor params; I
think it's very unlikely to be an issue on the stable kernels, especially
since most zswap users will change the compressor and/or zpool from sysfs
only one time each boot - or zero times, if they add the params to the
kernel boot.

Per memcg slab accounting and kasan have a problem with kmem_cache
destruction.
- kmem_cache_create() allocates a kmem_cache, which is used for
allocations from processes running in root (top) memcg.
- Processes running in non root memcg and allocating with either
__GFP_ACCOUNT or from a SLAB_ACCOUNT cache use a per memcg
kmem_cache.
- Kasan catches use-after-free by having kfree() and kmem_cache_free()
defer freeing of objects. Objects are placed in a quarantine.
- kmem_cache_destroy() destroys root and non root kmem_caches. It takes
care to drain the quarantine of objects from the root memcg's
kmem_cache, but ignores objects associated with non root memcg. This
causes leaks because quarantined per memcg objects refer to per memcg
kmem cache being destroyed.
To see the problem:
1) create a slab cache with kmem_cache_create(,,,SLAB_ACCOUNT,)
2) from non root memcg, allocate and free a few objects from cache
3) dispose of the cache with kmem_cache_destroy() kmem_cache_destroy()
will trigger a "Slab cache still has objects" warning indicating
that the per memcg kmem_cache structure was leaked.
Fix the leak by draining kasan quarantined objects allocated from non
root memcg.
Racing memcg deletion is tricky, but handled. kmem_cache_destroy() =>
shutdown_memcg_caches() => __shutdown_memcg_cache() => shutdown_cache()
flushes per memcg quarantined objects, even if that memcg has been
rmdir'd and gone through memcg_deactivate_kmem_caches().
This leak only affects destroyed SLAB_ACCOUNT kmem caches when kasan is
enabled. So I don't think it's worth patching stable kernels.

Commit 31bc3858ea ("add automatic onlining policy for the newly added
memory") provides the capability to have added memory automatically
onlined during add, but this appears to be slightly broken.
The current implementation uses walk_memory_range() to call
online_memory_block, which uses memory_block_change_state() to online
the memory. Instead, we should be calling device_online() for the
memory block in online_memory_block(). This would online the memory
(the memory bus online routine memory_subsys_online() called from
device_online calls memory_block_change_state()) and properly update the
device struct offline flag.
As a result of the current implementation, attempting to remove a memory
block after adding it using auto online fails. This is because doing a
remove, for instance
echo offline > /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryXXX/state
uses device_offline() which checks the dev->offline flag.

We had used page->lru to link the component pages (except the first
page) of a zspage, and used INIT_LIST_HEAD(&page->lru) to init it.
Therefore, to get the last page's next page, which is NULL, we had to
use page flag PG_Private_2 to identify it.
But now, we use page->freelist to link all of the pages in zspage and
init the page->freelist as NULL for last page, so no need to use
PG_Private_2 anymore.
This remove redundant SetPagePrivate2 in create_page_chain and
ClearPagePrivate2 in reset_page(). Save a few cycles for migration of

At the end of a window period, if the reclaimed pages is greater than
scanned, an unsigned underflow can result in a huge pressure value and
thus a critical event. Reclaimed pages is found to go higher than
scanned because of the addition of reclaimed slab pages to reclaimed in
shrink_node without a corresponding increment to scanned pages.
Minchan Kim mentioned that this can also happen in the case of a THP
page where the scanned is 1 and reclaimed could be 512.

When @node_reclaim_node isn't 0, the page allocator tries to reclaim
pages if the amount of free memory in the zones are below the low
watermark. On Power platform, none of NUMA nodes are scanned for page
reclaim because no nodes match the condition in zone_allows_reclaim().
On Power platform, RECLAIM_DISTANCE is set to 10 which is the distance
of Node-A to Node-A. So the preferred node even won't be scanned for
page reclaim.
__alloc_pages_nodemask()
get_page_from_freelist()
zone_allows_reclaim()
Anton proposed the test code as below:
# cat alloc.c
:
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
void *p;
unsigned long size;
unsigned long start, end;
start = time(NULL);
size = strtoul(argv[1], NULL, 0);
printf("To allocate %ldGB memory\n", size);
size <<= 30;
p = malloc(size);
assert(p);
memset(p, 0, size);
end = time(NULL);
printf("Used time: %ld seconds\n", end - start);
sleep(3600);
return 0;
}
The system I use for testing has two NUMA nodes. Both have 128GB
memory. In below scnario, the page caches on node#0 should be reclaimed
when it encounters pressure to accommodate request of allocation.
# echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/zone_reclaim_mode; \
sync; \
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches; \
# taskset -c 0 cat file.32G > /dev/null; \
grep FilePages /sys/devices/system/node/node0/meminfo
Node 0 FilePages: 33619712 kB

Node 0 FilePages: 33619840 kB
# grep MemFree /sys/devices/system/node/node0/meminfo

With the patch applied, the pagecache on node-0 is reclaimed when its
free memory is running out. It's the expected behaviour.
# echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/zone_reclaim_mode; \

Patch series "Numabalancing preserve write fix", v2.
This patch series address an issue w.r.t THP migration and autonuma
preserve write feature. migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() cannot deal
with concurrent modification of the page. It does a page copy without
following the migration pte sequence. IIUC, this was done to keep the
migration simpler and at the time of implemenation we didn't had THP
page cache which would have required a more elaborate migration scheme.
That means thp autonuma migration expect the protnone with saved write
to be done such that both kernel and user cannot update the page
content. This patch series enables archs like ppc64 to do that. We are
good with the hash translation mode with the current code, because we
never create a hardware page table entry for a protnone pte.
This patch (of 2):
Autonuma preserves the write permission across numa fault to avoid
taking a writefault after a numa fault (Commit: b191f9b106 " mm: numa:
preserve PTE write permissions across a NUMA hinting fault").
Architecture can implement protnone in different ways and some may
choose to implement that by clearing Read/ Write/Exec bit of pte.
Setting the write bit on such pte can result in wrong behaviour. Fix
this up by allowing arch to override how to save the write bit on a
protnone pte.

Architectures like ppc64, use privilege access bit to mark pte non
accessible. This implies that kernel can do a copy_to_user to an
address marked for numa fault. This also implies that there can be a
parallel hardware update for the pte. set_pte_at cannot be used in such
scenarios. Hence switch the pte update to use ptep_get_and_clear and
set_pte_at combination.

Running my likely/unlikely profiler, I discovered that the test in
shmem_write_begin() that tests for info->seals as unlikely, is always
incorrect. This is because shmem_get_inode() sets info->seals to have
F_SEAL_SEAL set by default, and it is unlikely to be cleared when
shmem_write_begin() is called. Thus, the if statement is very likely.
But as the if statement block only cares about F_SEAL_WRITE and
F_SEAL_GROW, change the test to only test those two bits.

Hillf Danton pointed out that since commit 1d82de618d ("mm, vmscan:
make kswapd reclaim in terms of nodes") that PGDAT_WRITEBACK is no
longer cleared.
It was not noticed as triggering it requires pages under writeback to
cycle twice through the LRU and before kswapd gets stalled.
Historically, such issues tended to occur on small machines writing
heavily to slow storage such as a USB stick.
Once kswapd stalls, direct reclaim stalls may be higher but due to the
fact that memory pressure is required, it would not be very noticable.
Michal Hocko suggested removing the flag entirely but the conservative
fix is to restore the intended PGDAT_WRITEBACK behaviour and clear the
flag when a suitable zone is balanced.

__vmalloc_area_node() allocates pages to cover the requested vmalloc
size. This can be a lot of memory. If the current task is killed by
the OOM killer, and thus has an unlimited access to memory reserves, it
can consume all the memory theoretically. Fix this by checking for
fatal_signal_pending and back off early.

There are many reasons of CMA allocation failure such as EBUSY, ENOMEM,
EINTR. But we did not know error reason so far. This patch prints the
error value.
Additionally if CONFIG_CMA_DEBUG is enabled, this patch shows bitmap
status to know available pages. Actually CMA internally tries on all
available regions because some regions can be failed because of EBUSY.
Bitmap status is useful to know in detail on both ENONEM and EBUSY;
ENOMEM: not tried at all because of no available region
it could be too small total region or could be fragmentation issue
EBUSY: tried some region but all failed
This is an ENOMEM example with this patch.
[2: Binder:714_1: 744] cma: cma_alloc: alloc failed, req-size: 256 pages, ret: -12
If CONFIG_CMA_DEBUG is enabled, avabile pages also will be shown as
concatenated size@position format. So 4@572 means that there are 4
available pages at 572 position starting from 0 position.
[2: Binder:714_1: 744] cma: number of available pages: 4@572+7@585+7@601+8@632+38@730+166@1114+127@1921=> 357 free of 2048 total pages

If madvise(2) advice will result in the underlying vma being split and
the number of areas mapped by the process will exceed
/proc/sys/vm/max_map_count as a result, return ENOMEM instead of EAGAIN.
EAGAIN is returned by madvise(2) when a kernel resource, such as slab,
is temporarily unavailable. It indicates that userspace should retry
the advice in the near future. This is important for advice such as
MADV_DONTNEED which is often used by malloc implementations to free
memory back to the system: we really do want to free memory back when
madvise(2) returns EAGAIN because slab allocations (for vmas, anon_vmas,
or mempolicies) cannot be allocated.
Encountering /proc/sys/vm/max_map_count is not a temporary failure,
however, so return ENOMEM to indicate this is a more serious issue. A
followup patch to the man page will specify this behavior.

Currently alloc_contig_range assumes that the compaction should be done
with the default GFP_KERNEL flags. This is probably right for all
current uses of this interface, but may change as CMA is used in more
use-cases (including being the default DMA memory allocator on some
platforms).
Change the function prototype, to allow for passing through the GFP mask
set by upper layers.
Also respect global restrictions by applying memalloc_noio_flags to the
passed in flags.

The memory mapping of a process may change between #PF event and the
call to mcopy_atomic that comes to resolve the page fault. In such
case, there will be no VMA covering the range passed to mcopy_atomic or
the VMA will not have userfaultfd context.
To allow uffd monitor to distinguish those case from other errors, let's
return -ENOENT instead of -EINVAL.
Note, that despite availability of UFFD_EVENT_UNMAP there still might be
race between the processing of UFFD_EVENT_UNMAP and outstanding
mcopy_atomic in case of non-cooperative uffd usage.

When a non-cooperative userfaultfd monitor copies pages in the
background, it may encounter regions that were already unmapped.
Addition of UFFD_EVENT_UNMAP allows the uffd monitor to track precisely
changes in the virtual memory layout.
Since there might be different uffd contexts for the affected VMAs, we
first should create a temporary representation for the unmap event for
each uffd context and then notify them one by one to the appropriate
userfault file descriptors.
The event notification occurs after the mmap_sem has been released.

Patch series "userfaultfd: non-cooperative: better tracking for mapping
changes", v2.
These patches try to address issues I've encountered during integration
of userfaultfd with CRIU.
Previously added userfaultfd events for fork(), madvise() and mremap()
unfortunately do not cover all possible changes to a process virtual
memory layout required for uffd monitor.
When one or more VMAs is removed from the process mm, the external uffd
monitor has no way to detect those changes and will attempt to fill the
removed regions with userfaultfd_copy.
Another problematic event is the exit() of the process. Here again, the
external uffd monitor will try to use userfaultfd_copy, although mm
owning the memory has already gone.
The first patch in the series is a minor cleanup and it's not strictly
related to the rest of the series.
The patches 2 and 3 below add UFFD_EVENT_UNMAP and UFFD_EVENT_EXIT to
allow the uffd monitor track changes in the memory layout of a process.
The patches 4 and 5 amend error codes returned by userfaultfd_copy to
make the uffd monitor able to cope with races that might occur between
delivery of unmap and exit events and outstanding userfaultfd_copy's.
This patch (of 5):
Commit dc0ef0df7b ("mm: make mmap_sem for write waits killable for mm
syscalls") replaced call to vm_munmap in munmap syscall with open coded
version to allow different waits on mmap_sem in munmap syscall and
vm_munmap.
Now both functions use down_write_killable, so we can restore the call
to vm_munmap from the munmap system call.

bda807d444 ("mm: migrate: support non-lru movable page migration").
But now some of non-lru pages like zsmalloc, virtio-balloon pages also
become movable. So we can offline such blocks by using non-lru page
migration.
This patch straightforwardly adds non-lru migration code, which means
adding non-lru related code to the functions which scan over pfn and
collect pages to be migrated and isolate them before migration.

Extend soft offlining framework to support non-lru page, which already
support migration after commit bda807d444 ("mm: migrate: support
non-lru movable page migration")
When memory corrected errors occur on a non-lru movable page, we can
choose to stop using it by migrating data onto another page and disable
the original (maybe half-broken) one.

Patch series "HWPOISON: soft offlining for non-lru movable page", v6.
After Minchan's commit bda807d444 ("mm: migrate: support non-lru
movable page migration"), some type of non-lru page like zsmalloc and
virtio-balloon page also support migration.
Therefore, we can:
1) soft offlining no-lru movable pages, which means when memory
corrected errors occur on a non-lru movable page, we can stop to use
it by migrating data onto another page and disable the original
(maybe half-broken) one.
2) enable memory hotplug for non-lru movable pages, i.e. we may offline
blocks, which include such pages, by using non-lru page migration.
This patchset is heavily dependent on non-lru movable page migration.
This patch (of 4):
Change the return type of isolate_movable_page() from bool to int. It
will return 0 when isolate movable page successfully, and return -EBUSY
when it isolates failed.
There is no functional change within this patch but prepare for later
patch.

With both coming and already present locking optimizations, introducing

Moreover, it makes buddied list no longer necessary, and allows for a

Most of z3fold operations are in-page, such as modifying z3fold page
header or moving z3fold objects within a page. Taking per-pool spinlock
to protect per-page objects is therefore suboptimal, and the idea of
having a per-page spinlock (or rwlock) has been around for some time.
This patch implements spinlock-based per-page locking mechanism which is
lightweight enough to normally fit ok into the z3fold header.

z3fold_compact_page() currently only handles the situation when there's
a single middle chunk within the z3fold page. However it may be worth
it to move middle chunk closer to either first or last chunk, whichever
is there, if the gap between them is big enough.
This patch adds the relevant code, using BIG_CHUNK_GAP define as a
threshold for middle chunk to be worth moving.

Since the introduction of FAULT_FLAG_SIZE to the vm_fault flag, it has
been somewhat painful with getting the flags set and removed at the
correct locations. More than one kernel oops was introduced due to
difficulties of getting the placement correctly.
Remove the flag values and introduce an input parameter to huge_fault
that indicates the size of the page entry. This makes the code easier
to trace and should avoid the issues we see with the fault flags where
removal of the flag was necessary in the fallback paths.

The current transparent hugepage code only supports PMDs. This patch
adds support for transparent use of PUDs with DAX. It does not include
support for anonymous pages. x86 support code also added.
Most of this patch simply parallels the work that was done for huge
PMDs. The only major difference is how the new ->pud_entry method in
mm_walk works. The ->pmd_entry method replaces the ->pte_entry method,
whereas the ->pud_entry method works along with either ->pmd_entry or
->pte_entry. The pagewalk code takes care of locking the PUD before
calling ->pud_walk, so handlers do not need to worry whether the PUD is
stable.

Patch series "1G transparent hugepage support for device dax", v2.
The following series implements support for 1G trasparent hugepage on
x86 for device dax. The bulk of the code was written by Mathew Wilcox a
while back supporting transparent 1G hugepage for fs DAX. I have
forward ported the relevant bits to 4.10-rc. The current submission has
only the necessary code to support device DAX.
Comments from Dan Williams: So the motivation and intended user of this
functionality mirrors the motivation and users of 1GB page support in
hugetlbfs. Given expected capacities of persistent memory devices an
in-memory database may want to reduce tlb pressure beyond what they can
already achieve with 2MB mappings of a device-dax file. We have
customer feedback to that effect as Willy mentioned in his previous
version of these patches [1].
[1]: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/1/31/52
Comments from Nilesh @ Oracle:
There are applications which have a process model; and if you assume
10,000 processes attempting to mmap all the 6TB memory available on a
server; we are looking at the following:
processes : 10,000
memory : 6TB
pte @ 4k page size: 8 bytes / 4K of memory * #processes = 6TB / 4k * 8 * 10000 = 1.5GB * 80000 = 120,000GB
pmd @ 2M page size: 120,000 / 512 = ~240GB
pud @ 1G page size: 240GB / 512 = ~480MB
As you can see with 2M pages, this system will use up an exorbitant
amount of DRAM to hold the page tables; but the 1G pages finally brings
it down to a reasonable level. Memory sizes will keep increasing; so
this number will keep increasing.
An argument can be made to convert the applications from process model
to thread model, but in the real world that may not be always practical.
Hopefully this helps explain the use case where this is valuable.
This patch (of 3):
In preparation for adding the ability to handle PUD pages, convert
vm_operations_struct.pmd_fault to vm_operations_struct.huge_fault. The
vm_fault structure is extended to include a union of the different page
table pointers that may be needed, and three flag bits are reserved to
indicate which type of pointer is in the union.

As suggested by Vlastimil Babka and Tejun Heo, this patch uses a static
work_struct to co-ordinate the draining of per-cpu pages on the
workqueue. Only one task can drain at a time but this is better than
the previous scheme that allowed multiple tasks to send IPIs at a time.
One consideration is whether parallel requests should synchronise
against each other. This patch does not synchronise for a global drain
as the common case for such callers is expected to be multiple parallel
direct reclaimers competing for pages when the watermark is close to
min. Draining the per-cpu list is unlikely to make much progress and
serialising the drain is of dubious merit. Drains are synchonrised for
callers such as memory hotplug and CMA that care about the drain being
complete when the function returns.

Since commit 682a3385e7 ("mm, page_alloc: inline the fast path of the
zonelist iterator") we replace a NULL nodemask with
cpuset_current_mems_allowed in the fast path, so that
get_page_from_freelist() filters nodes allowed by the cpuset via
for_next_zone_zonelist_nodemask().
In that case it's pointless to additionaly check __cpuset_zone_allowed()
in each iteration, which we can avoid by not adding ALLOC_CPUSET to
alloc_flags in that scenario.
This saves some cycles in the allocator fast path on systems with one or
more non-root cpuset configured. In the slow path, ALLOC_CPUSET is
reset according to __alloc_pages_slowpath(). Without configured
cpusets, this code is disabled by a static key.

The allocation fast path contains two similar checks for zoneref->zone
being NULL, where zoneref points either to the first zone in the
zonelist, or to the preferred zone. These can be NULL either due to
empty zonelist, or no zone being compatible with given nodemask or
task's cpuset.
These checks are unnecessary, because the zonelist walks in
first_zones_zonelist() and get_page_from_freelist() handle a NULL
starting zoneref->zone or preferred_zoneref->zone safely. It's safe to
fallback to __alloc_pages_slowpath() where we also have the check early
enough.

Many workloads that allocate pages are not handling an interrupt at a
time. As allocation requests may be from IRQ context, it's necessary to
disable/enable IRQs for every page allocation. This cost is the bulk of
the free path but also a significant percentage of the allocation path.
This patch alters the locking and checks such that only irq-safe
allocation requests use the per-cpu allocator. All others acquire the
irq-safe zone->lock and allocate from the buddy allocator. It relies on
disabling preemption to safely access the per-cpu structures. It could
be slightly modified to avoid soft IRQs using it but it's not clear it's
worthwhile.
This modification may slow allocations from IRQ context slightly but the
main gain from the per-cpu allocator is that it scales better for
allocations from multiple contexts. There is an implicit assumption
that intensive allocations from IRQ contexts on multiple CPUs from a
single NUMA node are rare and that the fast majority of scaling issues
are encountered in !IRQ contexts such as page faulting. It's worth
noting that this patch is not required for a bulk page allocator but it
significantly reduces the overhead.
The following is results from a page allocator micro-benchmark. Only
order-0 is interesting as higher orders do not use the per-cpu allocator

This is the alloc, free and total overhead of allocating order-0 pages
in batches of 1 page up to 16384 pages. Avoiding disabling/enabling
overhead massively reduces overhead. Alloc overhead is roughly reduced
by 14-20% in most cases. The free path is reduced by 26-46% and the
total reduction is significant.
Many users require zeroing of pages from the page allocator which is the
vast cost of allocation. Hence, the impact on a basic page faulting
benchmark is not that significant

This is from aim9 and the most notable outcome is that fault variability
is reduced by the patch. The headline improvement is small as the
overall fault cost, zeroing, page table insertion etc dominate relative
to disabling/enabling IRQs in the per-cpu allocator.
Similarly, little benefit was seen on networking benchmarks both
localhost and between physical server/clients where other costs
dominate. It's possible that this will only be noticable on very high
speed networks.

Pulling cpu hotplug locks inside the page allocator is just too
dangerous. Let's remove the dependency by dropping get_online_cpus()
from drain_all_pages. This is not so simple though because now we do
not have a protection against cpu hotplug which means 2 things:
- the work item might be executed on a different cpu in worker from
unbound pool so it doesn't run on pinned on the cpu
- we have to make sure that we do not race with page_alloc_cpu_dead
calling drain_pages_zone
Disabling preemption in drain_local_pages_wq will solve the first
problem drain_local_pages will determine its local CPU from the WQ
context which will be stable after that point, page_alloc_cpu_dead is
pinned to the CPU already. The later condition is achieved by disabling
IRQs in drain_pages_zone.

The per-cpu page allocator can be drained immediately via
drain_all_pages() which sends IPIs to every CPU. In the next patch, the
per-cpu allocator will only be used for interrupt-safe allocations which
prevents draining it from IPI context. This patch uses workqueues to
drain the per-cpu lists instead.
This is slower but no slowdown during intensive reclaim was measured and
the paths that use drain_all_pages() are not that sensitive to
performance. This is particularly true as the path would only be
triggered when reclaim is failing. It also makes a some sense to avoid
storming a machine with IPIs when it's under memory pressure. Arguably,
it should be further adjusted so that only one caller at a time is
draining pages but it's beyond the scope of the current patch.

Patch series "Use per-cpu allocator for !irq requests and prepare for a
bulk allocator", v5.
This series is motivated by a conversation led by Jesper Dangaard Brouer
at the last LSF/MM proposing a generic page pool for DMA-coherent pages.
Part of his motivation was due to the overhead of allocating multiple
order-0 that led some drivers to use high-order allocations and
splitting them. This is very slow in some cases.
The first two patches in this series restructure the page allocator such
that it is relatively easy to introduce an order-0 bulk page allocator.
A patch exists to do that and has been handed over to Jesper until an
in-kernel users is created. The third patch prevents the per-cpu
allocator being drained from IPI context as that can potentially corrupt
the list after patch four is merged. The final patch alters the per-cpu
alloctor to make it exclusive to !irq requests. This cuts
allocation/free overhead by roughly 30%.
Performance tests from both Jesper and me are included in the patch.
This patch (of 4):
buffered_rmqueue removes a page from a given zone and uses the per-cpu
list for order-0. This is fine but a hypothetical caller that wanted
multiple order-0 pages has to disable/reenable interrupts multiple
times. This patch structures buffere_rmqueue such that it's relatively
easy to build a bulk order-0 page allocator. There is no functional
change.

We noticed a performance regression when moving hadoop workloads from
3.10 kernels to 4.0 and 4.6. This is accompanied by increased pageout
activity initiated by kswapd as well as frequent bursts of allocation
stalls and direct reclaim scans. Even lowering the dirty ratios to the
equivalent of less than 1% of memory would not eliminate the issue,
suggesting that dirty pages concentrate where the scanner is looking.
This can be traced back to recent efforts of thrash avoidance. Where
3.10 would not detect refaulting pages and continuously supply clean
cache to the inactive list, a thrashing workload on 4.0+ will detect and
activate refaulting pages right away, distilling used-once pages on the
inactive list much more effectively. This is by design, and it makes
sense for clean cache. But for the most part our workload's cache
faults are refaults and its use-once cache is from streaming writes. We
end up with most of the inactive list dirty, and we don't go after the
active cache as long as we have use-once pages around.
But waiting for writes to avoid reclaiming clean cache that *might*
refault is a bad trade-off. Even if the refaults happen, reads are
faster than writes. Before getting bogged down on writeback, reclaim
should first look at *all* cache in the system, even active cache.
To accomplish this, activate pages that are dirty or under writeback
when they reach the end of the inactive LRU. The pages are marked for
immediate reclaim, meaning they'll get moved back to the inactive LRU
tail as soon as they're written back and become reclaimable. But in the
meantime, by reducing the inactive list to only immediately reclaimable
pages, we allow the scanner to deactivate and refill the inactive list
with clean cache from the active list tail to guarantee forward
progress.

Dirty pages can easily reach the end of the LRU while there are still
clean pages to reclaim around. Don't let kswapd write them back just
because there are a lot of them. It costs more CPU to find the clean
pages, but that's almost certainly better than to disrupt writeback from
the flushers with LRU-order single-page writes from reclaim. And the
flushers have been woken up by that point, so we spend IO capacity on
flushing and CPU capacity on finding the clean cache.
Only start writing dirty pages if they have cycled around the LRU twice
now and STILL haven't been queued on the IO device. It's possible that
the dirty pages are so sparsely distributed across different bdis,
inodes, memory cgroups, that the flushers take forever to get to the
ones we want reclaimed. Once we see them twice on the LRU, we know
that's the quicker way to find them, so do LRU writeback.

Direct reclaim has been replaced by kswapd reclaim in pretty much all
common memory pressure situations, so this code most likely doesn't
accomplish the described effect anymore. The previous patch wakes up
flushers for all reclaimers when we encounter dirty pages at the tail
end of the LRU. Remove the crufty old direct reclaim invocation.

Memory pressure can put dirty pages at the end of the LRU without
anybody running into dirty limits. Don't start writing individual pages
from kswapd while the flushers might be asleep.
Unlike the old direct reclaim flusher wakeup (removed in the next patch)
that flushes the number of pages just scanned, this patch wakes the
flushers for all outstanding dirty pages. That seemed to perform better
in a synthetic test that pushes dirty pages to the end of the LRU and
into reclaim, because we know LRU aging outstrips writeback already, and
this way we give younger dirty pages a headstart rather than wait until
reclaim runs into them as well. It also means less plugging and risk of
exhausting the struct request pool from reclaim.
There is a concern that this will cause temporary files that used to get
dirtied and truncated before writeback to now get written to disk under
memory pressure. If this turns out to be a real problem, we'll have to
revisit this and tame the reclaim flusher wakeups.

Patch series "mm: vmscan: fix kswapd writeback regression".
We noticed a regression on multiple hadoop workloads when moving from
3.10 to 4.0 and 4.6, which involves kswapd getting tangled up in page
writeout, causing direct reclaim herds that also don't make progress.
I tracked it down to the thrash avoidance efforts after 3.10 that make
the kernel better at keeping use-once cache and use-many cache sorted on
the inactive and active list, with more aggressive protection of the
active list as long as there is inactive cache. Unfortunately, our
workload's use-once cache is mostly from streaming writes. Waiting for
writes to avoid potential reloads in the future is not a good tradeoff.
These patches do the following:
1. Wake the flushers when kswapd sees a lump of dirty pages. It's
possible to be below the dirty background limit and still have cache
velocity push them through the LRU. So start a-flushin'.
2. Let kswapd only write pages that have been rotated twice. This makes
sure we really tried to get all the clean pages on the inactive list
before resorting to horrible LRU-order writeback.
3. Move rotating dirty pages off the inactive list. Instead of churning
or waiting on page writeback, we'll go after clean active cache. This
might lead to thrashing, but in this state memory demand outstrips IO
speed anyway, and reads are faster than writes.
Mel backported the series to 4.10-rc5 with one minor conflict and ran a
couple of tests on it. Mix of read/write random workload didn't show
anything interesting. Write-only database didn't show much difference
in performance but there were slight reductions in IO -- probably in the
noise.
simoop did show big differences although not as big as Mel expected.
This is Chris Mason's workload that similate the VM activity of hadoop.
Mel won't go through the full details but over the samples measured

Still, 95% of write latency (p95-write) is halved by the series and

not necessarily surprising. Kswapd efficiency is unchanged at 99% (99%
of pages scanned were reclaimed) but direct reclaim efficiency went from
77% to 99%
In the vanilla kernel, 627MB of data was written back from reclaim
context. With the series, no data was written back. With or without
the patch, pages are being immediately reclaimed after writeback
completes. However, with the patch, only 1/8th of the pages are
reclaimed like this.
This patch (of 5):
We have an elaborate dirty/writeback throttling mechanism inside the
reclaim scanner, but for that to work the pages have to go through
shrink_page_list() and get counted for what they are. Otherwise, we
mess up the LRU order and don't match reclaim speed to writeback.
Especially during deactivation, there is never a reason to skip dirty
pages; nothing is even trying to write them out from there. Don't mess
up the LRU order for nothing, shuffle these pages along.

Patch series "userfaultfd: non-cooperative: add madvise() event for
MADV_REMOVE request".
These patches add notification of madvise(MADV_REMOVE) event to
non-cooperative userfaultfd monitor.
The first pacth renames EVENT_MADVDONTNEED to EVENT_REMOVE along with
relevant functions and structures. Using _REMOVE instead of
_MADVDONTNEED describes the event semantics more clearly and I hope it's
not too late for such change in the ABI.
This patch (of 3):
The UFFD_EVENT_MADVDONTNEED purpose is to notify uffd monitor about
removal of certain range from address space tracked by userfaultfd.
Hence, UFFD_EVENT_REMOVE seems to better reflect the operation
semantics. Respectively, 'madv_dn' field of uffd_msg is renamed to
'remove' and the madvise_userfault_dontneed callback is renamed to
userfaultfd_remove.

Commit 82e7d3abec ("oom: print nodemask in the oom report") implicitly
sets the allocation nodemask to cpuset_current_mems_allowed when there
is no effective mempolicy. cpuset_current_mems_allowed is only
effective when cpusets are enabled, which is also printed by
dump_header(), so setting the nodemask to cpuset_current_mems_allowed is
redundant and prevents debugging issues where ac->nodemask is not set
properly in the page allocator.
This provides better debugging output since
cpuset_print_current_mems_allowed() is already provided.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

lruvec_lru_size returns the full size of the LRU list while we sometimes
need a value reduced only to eligible zones (e.g. for lowmem requests).
inactive_list_is_low is one such user. Later patches will add more of
them. Add a new parameter to lruvec_lru_size and allow it filter out
zones which are not eligible for the given context.

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

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

Because during swap off, a swap entry may have swap_map[] ==
SWAP_HAS_CACHE (for example, just allocated). If we return NULL in
__read_swap_cache_async(), the swap off will abort. So when swap slot
cache is disabled, (for swap off), we will wait for page to be put into
swap cache in such race condition. This should not be a problem for swap
slot cache, because swap slot cache should be drained after clearing
swap_slot_cache_enabled.

We add per cpu caches for swap slots that can be allocated and freed
quickly without the need to touch the swap info lock.
Two separate caches are maintained for swap slots allocated and swap
slots returned. This is to allow the swap slots to be returned to the
global pool in a batch so they will have a chance to be coaelesced with
other slots in a cluster. We do not reuse the slots that are returned
right away, as it may increase fragmentation of the slots.
The swap allocation cache is protected by a mutex as we may sleep when
searching for empty slots in cache. The swap free cache is protected by
a spin lock as we cannot sleep in the free path.
We refill the swap slots cache when we run out of slots, and we disable
the swap slots cache and drain the slots if the global number of slots
fall below a low watermark threshold. We re-enable the cache agian when
the slots available are above a high watermark.

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