Andi Kleen ec72c666fb usr/Kconfig: make initrd compression algorithm selection not expert
The kernel has support for (nearly) every compression algorithm known to
man, each to handle some particular microscopic niche.

Unfortunately all of these always get compiled in if you want to support
INITRDs, and can be only disabled when CONFIG_EXPERT is set.

I don't see why I need to set EXPERT just to properly configure the initrd
compression algorithms, and not always include every possible algorithm

Usually the initrd is just compressed with gzip anyways, at least that's
true on all distributions I use.

Remove the dependencies for initrd compression on CONFIG_EXPERT.

Make the various options just default y, which should be good enough to
not break any previous configuration.

Dmitry Monakhov 6adc4a22f2 fault-inject: add ratelimit option
Current debug levels are not optimal.  Especially if one want to provoke
big numbers of faults(broken device simulator) then any verbose level will
produce giant numbers of identical logging messages.  Let's add ratelimit
parameter for that purpose.

David Drysdale 51f39a1f0c syscalls: implement execveat() system call
This patchset adds execveat(2) for x86, and is derived from Meredydd
Luff's patch from Sept 2012 (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/9/11/528).

The primary aim of adding an execveat syscall is to allow an
implementation of fexecve(3) that does not rely on the /proc filesystem,
at least for executables (rather than scripts).  The current glibc version
of fexecve(3) is implemented via /proc, which causes problems in sandboxed
or otherwise restricted environments.

Given the desire for a /proc-free fexecve() implementation, HPA suggested
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/7/11/556) that an execveat(2) syscall would be
an appropriate generalization.

Also, having a new syscall means that it can take a flags argument without
back-compatibility concerns.  The current implementation just defines the
AT_EMPTY_PATH and AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW flags, but other flags could be
added in future -- for example, flags for new namespaces (as suggested at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/7/11/474).

Related history:
 - https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/12/27/123 is an example of someone
   realizing that fexecve() is likely to fail in a chroot environment.
 - http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=514043 covered
   documenting the /proc requirement of fexecve(3) in its manpage, to
   "prevent other people from wasting their time".
 - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=241609 described a
   problem where a process that did setuid() could not fexecve()
   because it no longer had access to /proc/self/fd; this has since
   been fixed.

This patch (of 4):

Add a new execveat(2) system call.  execveat() is to execve() as openat()
is to open(): it takes a file descriptor that refers to a directory, and
resolves the filename relative to that.

In addition, if the filename is empty and AT_EMPTY_PATH is specified,
execveat() executes the file to which the file descriptor refers.  This
replicates the functionality of fexecve(), which is a system call in other
UNIXen, but in Linux glibc it depends on opening "/proc/self/fd/<fd>" (and
so relies on /proc being mounted).

The filename fed to the executed program as argv[0] (or the name of the
script fed to a script interpreter) will be of the form "/dev/fd/<fd>"
(for an empty filename) or "/dev/fd/<fd>/<filename>", effectively
reflecting how the executable was found.  This does however mean that
execution of a script in a /proc-less environment won't work; also, script
execution via an O_CLOEXEC file descriptor fails (as the file will not be
accessible after exec).

Based on patches by Meredydd Luff.

Namjae Jeon c0ef0cc9d2 fat: fix data past EOF resulting from fsx testsuite
When running FSX with direct I/O mode, fsx resulted in DATA past EOF issues.

  fsx ./file2 -Z -r 4096 -w 4096
  ...
  ..
  truncating to largest ever: 0x907c
  fallocating to largest ever: 0x11137
  truncating to largest ever: 0x2c6fe
  truncating to largest ever: 0x2cfdf
  fallocating to largest ever: 0x40000
  Mapped Read: non-zero data past EOF (0x18628) page offset 0x629 is 0x2a4e
  ...
  ..

The reason being, it is doing a truncate down, but the zeroing does not
happen on the last block boundary when offset is not aligned.  Even though
it calls truncate_setsize()->truncate_inode_pages()->
truncate_inode_pages_range() and considers the partial zeroout but it
retrieves the page using find_lock_page() - which only looks the page in
the cache.  So, zeroing out does not happen in case of direct IO.

Make a truncate page based around block_truncate_page for FAT filesystem
and invoke that helper to zerout in case the offset is not aligned with
the blocksize.

Heesub Shin 1dd61aa31c mm/zbud: init user ops only when it is needed
When zbud is initialized through the zpool wrapper, pool->ops which
points to user-defined operations is always set regardless of whether it
is specified from the upper layer. This causes zbud_reclaim_page() to
iterate its loop for evicting pool pages out without any gain.

This patch sets the user-defined ops only when it is needed, so that
zbud_reclaim_page() can bail out the reclamation loop earlier if there
is no user-defined operations specified.

Mahendran Ganesh 40f9fb8cff mm/zsmalloc: support allocating obj with size of ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE
I sent a patch [1] for unnecessary check in zsmalloc.  And Minchan Kim
found zsmalloc even does not support allocating an obj with the size of
ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE in some situations.

For example:
   In system with 64KB PAGE_SIZE and 32 bit of physical addr. Then:
   ZS_MIN_ALLOC_SIZE is 32 bytes which is calculated by:
      MAX(32, (ZS_MAX_PAGES_PER_ZSPAGE << PAGE_SHIFT >> OBJ_INDEX_BITS))
   ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE is 64KB(in current code, is PAGE_SIZE)
   ZS_SIZE_CLASS_DELTA is 256 bytes
   So, ZS_SIZE_CLASSES = (ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE - ZS_MIN_ALLOC_SIZE) /
                          ZS_SIZE_CLASS_DELTA + 1
                       = 256

   In zs_create_pool(), the max size obj which can be allocated will be:
      ZS_MIN_ALLOC_SIZE + i * ZS_SIZE_CLASS_DELTA = 32 + 255*256 = 65312

   We can see that 65312 < 65536 (ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE). So we can NOT
   allocate objs with size ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE(65536) which we promise upper
   users we can do.

 [2]  http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1411.2/04534.html

This patch fixes this issue by dynamiclly calculating zs_size_classes when
module is loaded, allocates buffer with size ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE.  Then the
max obj(size is ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE) can be stored in it.

Minchan Kim af4ee5e977 zsmalloc: correct fragile [kmap|kunmap]_atomic use
The kunmap_atomic should use virtual address getting by kmap_atomic.
However, some pieces of code in zsmalloc uses modified address, not the
one got by kmap_atomic for kunmap_atomic.

It's okay for working because zsmalloc modifies the address inner
PAGE_SIZE bounday so it works with current kmap_atomic's implementation.
But it's still fragile with potential changing of kmap_atomic so let's
correct it.

I got a subtle bug when I implemented a new feature of zsmalloc
(compaction) due to a link's mishandling (the link was over page
boundary).  Although it was totally my mistake, it took a while to find
the cause because an unpredictable kmapped address was unmapped causing an
almost random crash.

karam.lee 8c7f01025f zram: implement rw_page operation of zram
This patch implements rw_page operation for zram block device.

I implemented the feature in zram and tested it.  Test bed was the G2, LG
electronic mobile device, whtich has msm8974 processor and 2GB memory.

With a memory allocation test program consuming memory, the system
generates swap.

Operating time of swap_write_page() was measured.

--------------------------------------------------
|             |   operating time   | improvement |
|             |  (20 runs average) |             |

--------------------------------------------------
|without patch|    1087.35 us      |             |
--------------------------------------------------

Each test(with paged_io,with BIO) result set shows normal distribution and
has equal variance.  I mean the two values are valid result to compare.  I
can say operation with paged I/O(without BIO) is faster 2.4% with
confidence level 95%.

This patch changes parameter of valid_io_request for common usage.  The
purpose of valid_io_request() is to determine if bio request is valid or
not.

This patch use I/O start address and size instead of a BIO parameter for

karam.lee b627cff3d3 zram: remove bio parameter from zram_bvec_rw()
Recently rw_page block device operation has been added.  This patchset
implements rw_page operation for zram block device and does some clean-up.

This patch (of 3):

Remove an unnecessary parameter(bio) from zram_bvec_rw() and
zram_bvec_read().  zram_bvec_read() doesn't use a bio parameter, so remove
it.  zram_bvec_rw() calls a read/write operation not using bio, so a rw
parameter replaces a bio parameter.

Joonsoo Kim 9eec4cd53f zsmalloc: merge size_class to reduce fragmentation
zsmalloc has many size_classes to reduce fragmentation and they are in 16
bytes unit, for example, 16, 32, 48, etc., if PAGE_SIZE is 4096.  And,
zsmalloc has constraint that each zspage has 4 pages at maximum.

In this situation, we can see interesting aspect.  Let's think about
size_class for 1488, 1472, ..., 1376.  To prevent external fragmentation,
they uses 4 pages per zspage and so all they can contain 11 objects at
maximum.

16384 (4096 * 4) = 1488 * 11 + remains
16384 (4096 * 4) = 1472 * 11 + remains
16384 (4096 * 4) = ...
16384 (4096 * 4) = 1376 * 11 + remains

It means that they have same characteristics and classification between
them isn't needed.  If we use one size_class for them, we can reduce
fragementation and save some memory since both the 1488 and 1472 sized
classes can only fit 11 objects into 4 pages, and an object that's 1472
bytes can fit into an object that's 1488 bytes, merging these classes to
always use objects that are 1488 bytes will reduce the total number of
size classes.  And reducing the total number of size classes reduces
overall fragmentation, because a wider range of compressed pages can fit
into a single size class, leaving less unused objects in each size class.

For this purpose, this patch implement size_class merging.  If there is
size_class that have same pages_per_zspage and same number of objects per
zspage with previous size_class, we don't create new size_class.  Instead,
we use previous, same characteristic size_class.  With this way, above
example sizes (1488, 1472, ..., 1376) use just one size_class so we can
get much more memory utilization.

Below is result of my simple test.

TEST ENV: EXT4 on zram, mount with discard option WORKLOAD: untar kernel
source code, remove directory in descending order in size.  (drivers arch

Each line represents orig_data_size, compr_data_size, mem_used_total,

(overhead to compr_data_size), respectively, after untar and remove
operation is executed.

Vladimir Davydov 8135be5a80 memcg: fix possible use-after-free in memcg_kmem_get_cache()
Suppose task @t that belongs to a memory cgroup @memcg is going to
allocate an object from a kmem cache @c.  The copy of @c corresponding to
@memcg, @mc, is empty.  Then if kmem_cache_alloc races with the memory
cgroup destruction we can access the memory cgroup's copy of the cache
after it was destroyed:

CPU0				CPU1
----				----
[ current=@t
  @mc->memcg_params->nr_pages=0 ]

kmem_cache_alloc(@c):
  call memcg_kmem_get_cache(@c);
  proceed to allocation from @mc:
    alloc a page for @mc:
      ...

				move @t from @memcg
				destroy @memcg:
				  mem_cgroup_css_offline(@memcg):
				    memcg_unregister_all_caches(@memcg):
				      kmem_cache_destroy(@mc)

    add page to @mc

We could fix this issue by taking a reference to a per-memcg cache, but
that would require adding a per-cpu reference counter to per-memcg caches,
which would look cumbersome.

Instead, let's take a reference to a memory cgroup, which already has a
per-cpu reference counter, in the beginning of kmem_cache_alloc to be
dropped in the end, and move per memcg caches destruction from css offline
to css free.  As a side effect, per-memcg caches will be destroyed not one
by one, but all at once when the last page accounted to the memory cgroup
is freed.  This doesn't sound as a high price for code readability though.

Note, this patch does add some overhead to the kmem_cache_alloc hot path,
but it is pretty negligible - it's just a function call plus a per cpu
counter decrement, which is comparable to what we already have in
memcg_kmem_get_cache.  Besides, it's only relevant if there are memory
cgroups with kmem accounting enabled.  I don't think we can find a way to
handle this race w/o it, because alloc_page called from kmem_cache_alloc
may sleep so we can't flush all pending kmallocs w/o reference counting.

Oleg Nesterov d003f371b2 oom: don't assume that a coredumping thread will exit soon
oom_kill.c assumes that PF_EXITING task should exit and free the memory
soon.  This is wrong in many ways and one important case is the coredump.
A task can sleep in exit_mm() "forever" while the coredumping sub-thread
can need more memory.

Change the PF_EXITING checks to take SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP into account,
we add the new trivial helper for that.

Note: this is only the first step, this patch doesn't try to solve other
problems.  The SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP check is obviously racy, a task can
participate in coredump after it was already observed in PF_EXITING state,
so TIF_MEMDIE (which also blocks oom-killer) still can be wrongly set.
fatal_signal_pending() can be true because of SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP so
out_of_memory() and mem_cgroup_out_of_memory() shouldn't blindly trust it.
 And even the name/usage of the new helper is confusing, an exiting thread
can only free its ->mm if it is the only/last task in thread group.

Hugh Dickins 2ebba6b7e1 mm: unmapped page migration avoid unmap+remap overhead
Page migration's __unmap_and_move(), and rmap's try_to_unmap(), were
created for use on pages almost certainly mapped into userspace.  But
nowadays compaction often applies them to unmapped page cache pages: which
may exacerbate contention on i_mmap_rwsem quite unnecessarily, since
try_to_unmap_file() makes no preliminary page_mapped() check.

Now check page_mapped() in __unmap_and_move(); and avoid repeating the
same overhead in rmap_walk_file() - don't remove_migration_ptes() when we
never inserted any.

(The PageAnon(page) comment blocks now look even sillier than before, but
clean that up on some other occasion.  And note in passing that
try_to_unmap_one() does not use a migration entry when PageSwapCache, so
remove_migration_ptes() will then not update that swap entry to newpage
pte: not a big deal, but something else to clean up later.)

Davidlohr remarked in "mm,fs: introduce helpers around the i_mmap_mutex"
conversion to i_mmap_rwsem, that "The biggest winner of these changes is
migration": a part of the reason might be all of that unnecessary taking
of i_mmap_mutex in page migration; and it's rather a shame that I didn't
get around to sending this patch in before his - this one is much less
useful after Davidlohr's conversion to rwsem, but still good.

David Rientjes 5cec38ac86 fs, seq_file: fallback to vmalloc instead of oom kill processes
Since commit 058504edd0 ("fs/seq_file: fallback to vmalloc allocation"),
seq_buf_alloc() falls back to vmalloc() when the kmalloc() for contiguous
memory fails.  This was done to address order-4 slab allocations for
reading /proc/stat on large machines and noticed because
PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER < 4, so there is no infinite loop in the page
allocator when allocating new slab for such high-order allocations.

Contiguous memory isn't necessary for caller of seq_buf_alloc(), however.
Other GFP_KERNEL high-order allocations that are <=
PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER will simply loop forever in the page allocator and
oom kill processes as a result.

We don't want to kill processes so that we can allocate contiguous memory
in situations when contiguous memory isn't necessary.

This patch does the kmalloc() allocation with __GFP_NORETRY for high-order
allocations.  This still utilizes memory compaction and direct reclaim in
the allocation path, the only difference is that it will fail immediately
instead of oom kill processes when out of memory.

Johannes Weiner 6b4f7799c6 mm: vmscan: invoke slab shrinkers from shrink_zone()
The slab shrinkers are currently invoked from the zonelist walkers in
kswapd, direct reclaim, and zone reclaim, all of which roughly gauge the
eligible LRU pages and assemble a nodemask to pass to NUMA-aware
shrinkers, which then again have to walk over the nodemask.  This is
redundant code, extra runtime work, and fairly inaccurate when it comes to
the estimation of actually scannable LRU pages.  The code duplication will
only get worse when making the shrinkers cgroup-aware and requiring them
to have out-of-band cgroup hierarchy walks as well.

Instead, invoke the shrinkers from shrink_zone(), which is where all
reclaimers end up, to avoid this duplication.

Take the count for eligible LRU pages out of get_scan_count(), which
considers many more factors than just the availability of swap space, like
zone_reclaimable_pages() currently does.  Accumulate the number over all
visited lruvecs to get the per-zone value.

Some nodes have multiple zones due to memory addressing restrictions.  To
avoid putting too much pressure on the shrinkers, only invoke them once
for each such node, using the class zone of the allocation as the pivot
zone.

For now, this integrates the slab shrinking better into the reclaim logic
and gets rid of duplicative invocations from kswapd, direct reclaim, and
zone reclaim.  It also prepares for cgroup-awareness, allowing
memcg-capable shrinkers to be added at the lruvec level without much
duplication of both code and runtime work.

This changes kswapd behavior, which used to invoke the shrinkers for each
zone, but with scan ratios gathered from the entire node, resulting in
meaningless pressure quantities on multi-zone nodes.

Zone reclaim behavior also changes.  It used to shrink slabs until the
same amount of pages were shrunk as were reclaimed from the LRUs.  Now it
merely invokes the shrinkers once with the zone's scan ratio, which makes
the shrinkers go easier on caches that implement aging and would prefer
feeding back pressure from recently used slab objects to unused LRU pages.

Joonsoo Kim 61cf5febdf mm/page_owner: correct owner information for early allocated pages
Extended memory to store page owner information is initialized some time
later than that page allocator starts.  Until initialization, many pages
can be allocated and they have no owner information.  This make debugging
using page owner harder, so some fixup will be helpful.

This patch fixes up this situation by setting fake owner information
immediately after page extension is initialized.  Information doesn't tell
the right owner, but, at least, it can tell whether page is allocated or
not, more correctly.

On my testing, this patch catches 13343 early allocated pages, although
they are mostly allocated from page extension feature.  Anyway, after
then, there is no page left that it is allocated and has no page owner
flag.

This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago.  It
is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it
remain as is.  Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak
or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature.

This functionality help us to know who allocates the page.  When
allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra
memory.  Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and
analyze it from this stored information.

In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in
struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of
struct page.  It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime
without considerable memory waste.

Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free,
using it to analyze page owner is rather complex.  We need to enlarge the
trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched.
And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later
analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather
than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug.

Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes.  For
example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this
patch.  And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature
using this interface.

I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature,
but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history.  Sorry about that.

Joonsoo Kim 9a92a6ce6f stacktrace: introduce snprint_stack_trace for buffer output
Current stacktrace only have the function for console output.  page_owner
that will be introduced in following patch needs to print the output of
stacktrace into the buffer for our own output format so so new function,
snprint_stack_trace(), is needed.

Joonsoo Kim dbc8358c72 mm/nommu: use alloc_pages_exact() rather than its own implementation
do_mmap_private() in nommu.c try to allocate physically contiguous pages
with arbitrary size in some cases and we now have good abstract function
to do exactly same thing, alloc_pages_exact().  So, change to use it.

There is no functional change.  This is the preparation step for support
page owner feature accurately.

Joonsoo Kim 031bc5743f mm/debug-pagealloc: make debug-pagealloc boottime configurable
Now, we have prepared to avoid using debug-pagealloc in boottime.  So
introduce new kernel-parameter to disable debug-pagealloc in boottime, and
makes related functions to be disabled in this case.

Only non-intuitive part is change of guard page functions.  Because guard
page is effective only if debug-pagealloc is enabled, turning off
according to debug-pagealloc is reasonable thing to do.

Joonsoo Kim e30825f186 mm/debug-pagealloc: prepare boottime configurable on/off
Until now, debug-pagealloc needs extra flags in struct page, so we need to
recompile whole source code when we decide to use it.  This is really
painful, because it takes some time to recompile and sometimes rebuild is
not possible due to third party module depending on struct page.  So, we
can't use this good feature in many cases.

Now, we have the page extension feature that allows us to insert extra
flags to outside of struct page.  This gets rid of third party module
issue mentioned above.  And, this allows us to determine if we need extra
memory for this page extension in boottime.  With these property, we can
avoid using debug-pagealloc in boottime with low computational overhead in
the kernel built with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC.  This will help our
development process greatly.

This patch is the preparation step to achive above goal.  debug-pagealloc
originally uses extra field of struct page, but, after this patch, it will
use field of struct page_ext.  Because memory for page_ext is allocated
later than initialization of page allocator in CONFIG_SPARSEMEM, we should
disable debug-pagealloc feature temporarily until initialization of
page_ext.  This patch implements this.

Joonsoo Kim eefa864b70 mm/page_ext: resurrect struct page extending code for debugging
When we debug something, we'd like to insert some information to every
page.  For this purpose, we sometimes modify struct page itself.  But,
this has drawbacks.  First, it requires re-compile.  This makes us
hesitate to use the powerful debug feature so development process is
slowed down.  And, second, sometimes it is impossible to rebuild the
kernel due to third party module dependency.  At third, system behaviour
would be largely different after re-compile, because it changes size of
struct page greatly and this structure is accessed by every part of
kernel.  Keeping this as it is would be better to reproduce errornous
situation.

This feature is intended to overcome above mentioned problems.  This
feature allocates memory for extended data per page in certain place
rather than the struct page itself.  This memory can be accessed by the
accessor functions provided by this code.  During the boot process, it
checks whether allocation of huge chunk of memory is needed or not.  If
not, it avoids allocating memory at all.  With this advantage, we can
include this feature into the kernel in default and can avoid rebuild and
solve related problems.

Until now, memcg uses this technique.  But, now, memcg decides to embed
their variable to struct page itself and it's code to extend struct page
has been removed.  I'd like to use this code to develop debug feature, so
this patch resurrect it.

To help these things to work well, this patch introduces two callbacks for
clients.  One is the need callback which is mandatory if user wants to
avoid useless memory allocation at boot-time.  The other is optional, init
callback, which is used to do proper initialization after memory is
allocated.  Detailed explanation about purpose of these functions is in
code comment.  Please refer it.

Others are completely same with previous extension code in memcg.

Jianyu Zhan 2d48366b3f mm, gfp: escalatedly define GFP_HIGHUSER and GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE
GFP_USER, GFP_HIGHUSER and GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE are escalatedly confined
defined, also implied by their names:

GFP_USER                                  = GFP_USER
GFP_USER + __GFP_HIGHMEM                  = GFP_HIGHUSER
GFP_USER + __GFP_HIGHMEM + __GFP_MOVABLE  = GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE

So just make GFP_HIGHUSER and GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE escalatedly defined to
reflect this fact.  It also makes the definition clear and texturally warn
on any furture break-up of this escalated relastionship.
