This a complete rewrite of the oom killer's badness() heuristic which is
used to determine which task to kill in oom conditions. The goal is to
make it as simple and predictable as possible so the results are better
understood and we end up killing the task which will lead to the most
memory freeing while still respecting the fine-tuning from userspace.
Instead of basing the heuristic on mm->total_vm for each task, the task's
rss and swap space is used instead. This is a better indication of the
amount of memory that will be freeable if the oom killed task is chosen
and subsequently exits. This helps specifically in cases where KDE or
GNOME is chosen for oom kill on desktop systems instead of a memory
hogging task.
The baseline for the heuristic is a proportion of memory that each task is
currently using in memory plus swap compared to the amount of "allowable"
memory. "Allowable," in this sense, means the system-wide resources for
unconstrained oom conditions, the set of mempolicy nodes, the mems
attached to current's cpuset, or a memory controller's limit. The
proportion is given on a scale of 0 (never kill) to 1000 (always kill),
roughly meaning that if a task has a badness() score of 500 that the task
consumes approximately 50% of allowable memory resident in RAM or in swap
space.
The proportion is always relative to the amount of "allowable" memory and
not the total amount of RAM systemwide so that mempolicies and cpusets may
operate in isolation; they shall not need to know the true size of the
machine on which they are running if they are bound to a specific set of
nodes or mems, respectively.
Root tasks are given 3% extra memory just like __vm_enough_memory()
provides in LSMs. In the event of two tasks consuming similar amounts of
memory, it is generally better to save root's task.
Because of the change in the badness() heuristic's baseline, it is also
necessary to introduce a new user interface to tune it. It's not possible
to redefine the meaning of /proc/pid/oom_adj with a new scale since the
ABI cannot be changed for backward compatability. Instead, a new tunable,
/proc/pid/oom_score_adj, is added that ranges from -1000 to +1000. It may
be used to polarize the heuristic such that certain tasks are never
considered for oom kill while others may always be considered. The value
is added directly into the badness() score so a value of -500, for
example, means to discount 50% of its memory consumption in comparison to
other tasks either on the system, bound to the mempolicy, in the cpuset,
or sharing the same memory controller.
/proc/pid/oom_adj is changed so that its meaning is rescaled into the
units used by /proc/pid/oom_score_adj, and vice versa. Changing one of
these per-task tunables will rescale the value of the other to an
equivalent meaning. Although /proc/pid/oom_adj was originally defined as
a bitshift on the badness score, it now shares the same linear growth as
/proc/pid/oom_score_adj but with different granularity. This is required
so the ABI is not broken with userspace applications and allows oom_adj to
be deprecated for future removal.

Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult,
the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated.
Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching

Make fscache object state transition callbacks use workqueue instead
of slow-work. New dedicated unbound CPU workqueue fscache_object_wq
is created. get/put callbacks are renamed and modified to take
@object and called directly from the enqueue wrapper and the work
function. While at it, make all open coded instances of get/put to
use fscache_get/put_object().
* Unbound workqueue is used.
* work_busy() output is printed instead of slow-work flags in object
debugging outputs. They mean basically the same thing bit-for-bit.
* sysctl fscache.object_max_active added to control concurrency. The
default value is nr_cpus clamped between 4 and
WQ_UNBOUND_MAX_ACTIVE.
* slow_work_sleep_till_thread_needed() is replaced with fscache

waits on fscache_object_wq congestion.

Introduce a new truncate calling sequence into fs/mm subsystems. Rather than
setattr > vmtruncate > truncate, have filesystems call their truncate sequence
from ->setattr if filesystem specific operations are required. vmtruncate is
deprecated, and truncate_pagecache and inode_newsize_ok helpers introduced
previously should be used.
simple_setattr is introduced for simple in-ram filesystems to implement
the new truncate sequence. Eventually all filesystems should be converted
to implement a setattr, and the default code in notify_change should go
away.
simple_setsize is also introduced to perform just the ATTR_SIZE portion
of simple_setattr (ie. changing i_size and trimming pagecache).
To implement the new truncate sequence:
- filesystem specific manipulations (eg freeing blocks) must be done in
the setattr method rather than ->truncate.
- vmtruncate can not be used by core code to trim blocks past i_size in
the event of write failure after allocation, so this must be performed
in the fs code.
- convert usage of helpers block_write_begin, nobh_write_begin,
cont_write_begin, and *blockdev_direct_IO* to use _newtrunc postfixed
variants. These avoid calling vmtruncate to trim blocks (see previous).
- inode_setattr should not be used. generic_setattr is a new function
to be used to copy simple attributes into the generic inode.
- make use of the better opportunity to handle errors with the new sequence.
Big problem with the previous calling sequence: the filesystem is not called
until i_size has already changed. This means it is not allowed to fail the
call, and also it does not know what the previous i_size was. Also, generic
code calling vmtruncate to truncate allocated blocks in case of error had
no good way to return a meaningful error (or, for example, atomically handle
block deallocation).

The inode's i_size is not protected by the big kernel lock. Therefore it
does not make sense to recommend taking the BKL in filesystems llseek
operations. Instead it should use the inode's mutex or use just use
i_size_read() instead. Add a note that this is not protecting
file->f_pos.

Originally, commit d899bf7b ("procfs: provide stack information for
threads") attempted to introduce a new feature for showing where the
threadstack was located and how many pages are being utilized by the
stack.
Commit c44972f1 ("procfs: disable per-task stack usage on NOMMU") was
applied to fix the NO_MMU case.
Commit 89240ba0 ("x86, fs: Fix x86 procfs stack information for threads on
64-bit") was applied to fix a bug in ia32 executables being loaded.
Commit 9ebd4eba7 ("procfs: fix /proc/<pid>/stat stack pointer for kernel
threads") was applied to fix a bug which had kernel threads printing a
userland stack address.
Commit 1306d603f ('proc: partially revert "procfs: provide stack
information for threads"') was then applied to revert the stack pages
being used to solve a significant performance regression.
This patch nearly undoes the effect of all these patches.
The reason for reverting these is it provides an unusable value in
field 28. For x86_64, a fork will result in the task->stack_start
value being updated to the current user top of stack and not the stack
start address. This unpredictability of the stack_start value makes
it worthless. That includes the intended use of showing how much stack
space a thread has.
Other architectures will get different values. As an example, ia64
gets 0. The do_fork() and copy_process() functions appear to treat the
stack_start and stack_size parameters as architecture specific.
I only partially reverted c44972f1 ("procfs: disable per-task stack usage
on NOMMU") . If I had completely reverted it, I would have had to change
mm/Makefile only build pagewalk.o when CONFIG_PROC_PAGE_MONITOR is
configured. Since I could not test the builds without significant effort,
I decided to not change mm/Makefile.
I only partially reverted 89240ba0 ("x86, fs: Fix x86 procfs stack
information for threads on 64-bit") . I left the KSTK_ESP() change in
place as that seemed worthwhile.

Replace the introduced i_sem by an i_mutex in the filesystem locking
documentation. This was introduced [1] after all occurrences were
already replaced in the same text [2]. However, the term "inode
semaphore" has not been replaced then, and it's replaced now.

Like ext3, nilfs has 'errors' mount option to allow specifying desired
behavior on severe errors.
Currently, the default action is 'errors=continue' and has potential
to advance filesystem corruption for severe errors.
This will change the action to 'errors=remount-ro' to avoid the issue.

The default behavior for directory reservations stays the same, but we add a
mount option so people can tweak the size of directory reservations
according to their workloads.

The default reservation size of 4 (32-bit windows) is a bit too ambitious.
Scale it back to 16 bits (resv_level=2). I have been testing various sizes
on a 4-node cluster which runs a mixed workload that is heavily threaded.
With a 256MB local alloc, I get *roughly* the following levels of average file
fragmentation:
resv_level=0 70%
resv_level=1 21%
resv_level=2 23%
resv_level=3 24%
resv_level=4 60%
resv_level=5 did not test
resv_level=6 60%
resv_level=2 seemed like a good compromise between not letting windows be
too small, but not so big that heavier workloads will immediately suffer
without tuning.
This patch also change the behavior of directory reservations - they now
track file reservations. The previous compromise of giving directory
windows only 8 bits wound up fragmenting more at some window sizes because
file allocations had smaller unused windows to poach from.

This patch improves Ocfs2 allocation policy by allowing an inode to
reserve a portion of the local alloc bitmap for itself. The reserved
portion (allocation window) is advisory in that other allocation
windows might steal it if the local alloc bitmap becomes
full. Otherwise, the reservations are honored and guaranteed to be
free. When the local alloc window is moved to a different portion of
the bitmap, existing reservations are discarded.
Reservation windows are represented internally by a red-black
tree. Within that tree, each node represents the reservation window of
one inode. An LRU of active reservations is also maintained. When new
data is written, we allocate it from the inodes window. When all bits
in a window are exhausted, we allocate a new one as close to the
previous one as possible. Should we not find free space, an existing
reservation is pulled off the LRU and cannibalized.
