The functions used in the patch are in slowpath, which gets called
whenever alloc_super is called during mounts.
Though this should not make difference for the architectures with
sequential numa node ids, for the powerpc which can potentially have
sparse node ids (for e.g., 4 node system having numa ids, 0,1,16,17 is
common), this patch saves some unnecessary allocations for non existing
numa nodes.
Even without that saving, perhaps patch makes code more readable.

try_charge() is the main charging logic of memcg. When it hits the limit
but either can't fail the allocation due to __GFP_NOFAIL or the task is
likely to free memory very soon, being OOM killed, has SIGKILL pending or
exiting, it "bypasses" the charge to the root memcg and returns -EINTR.
While this is one approach which can be taken for these situations, it has
several issues.
* It unnecessarily lies about the reality. The number itself doesn't
go over the limit but the actual usage does. memcg is either forced
to or actively chooses to go over the limit because that is the
right behavior under the circumstances, which is completely fine,
but, if at all avoidable, it shouldn't be misrepresenting what's
happening by sneaking the charges into the root memcg.
* Despite trying, we already do over-charge. kmemcg can't deal with
switching over to the root memcg by the point try_charge() returns
-EINTR, so it open-codes over-charing.
* It complicates the callers. Each try_charge() user has to handle
the weird -EINTR exception. memcg_charge_kmem() does the manual
over-charging. mem_cgroup_do_precharge() performs unnecessary
uncharging of root memcg, which BTW is inconsistent with what
memcg_charge_kmem() does but not broken as [un]charging are noops on
root memcg. mem_cgroup_try_charge() needs to switch the returned
cgroup to the root one.
The reality is that in memcg there are cases where we are forced and/or
willing to go over the limit. Each such case needs to be scrutinized and
justified but there definitely are situations where that is the right
thing to do. We alredy do this but with a superficial and inconsistent
disguise which leads to unnecessary complications.
This patch updates try_charge() so that it over-charges and returns 0 when
deemed necessary. -EINTR return is removed along with all special case
handling in the callers.
While at it, remove the local variable @ret, which was initialized to zero
and never changed, along with done: label which just returned the always
zero @ret.

Currently, try_charge() tries to reclaim memory synchronously when the
high limit is breached; however, if the allocation doesn't have
__GFP_WAIT, synchronous reclaim is skipped. If a process performs only
speculative allocations, it can blow way past the high limit. This is
actually easily reproducible by simply doing "find /". slab/slub
allocator tries speculative allocations first, so as long as there's
memory which can be consumed without blocking, it can keep allocating
memory regardless of the high limit.
This patch makes try_charge() always punt the over-high reclaim to the
return-to-userland path. If try_charge() detects that high limit is
breached, it adds the overage to current->memcg_nr_pages_over_high and
schedules execution of mem_cgroup_handle_over_high() which performs
synchronous reclaim from the return-to-userland path.
As long as kernel doesn't have a run-away allocation spree, this should
provide enough protection while making kmemcg behave more consistently.
It also has the following benefits.
- All over-high reclaims can use GFP_KERNEL regardless of the specific
gfp mask in use, e.g. GFP_NOFS, when the limit was breached.
- It copes with prio inversion. Previously, a low-prio task with
small memory.high might perform over-high reclaim with a bunch of
locks held. If a higher prio task needed any of these locks, it
would have to wait until the low prio task finished reclaim and
released the locks. By handing over-high reclaim to the task exit
path this issue can be avoided.

probe_kernel_address() is basically the same as the (later added)
probe_kernel_read().
The return value on EFAULT is a bit different: probe_kernel_address()
returns number-of-bytes-not-copied whereas probe_kernel_read() returns
-EFAULT. All callers have been checked, none cared.
probe_kernel_read() can be overridden by the architecture whereas
probe_kernel_address() cannot. parisc, blackfin and um do this, to insert
additional checking. Hence this patch possibly fixes obscure bugs,
although there are only two probe_kernel_address() callsites outside
arch/.
My first attempt involved removing probe_kernel_address() entirely and
converting all callsites to use probe_kernel_read() directly, but that got
tiresome.
This patch shrinks mm/slab_common.o by 218 bytes. For a single
probe_kernel_address() callsite.

On systems with a KMALLOC_MIN_SIZE of 128 (arm64, some mips and powerpc
configurations defining ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN to 128), the first
kmalloc_caches[] entry to be initialised after slab_early_init = 0 is
"kmalloc-128" with index 7. Depending on the debug kernel configuration,
sizeof(struct kmem_cache) can be larger than 128 resulting in an
INDEX_NODE of 8.
Commit 8fc9cf420b ("slab: make more slab management structure off the
slab") enables off-slab management objects for sizes starting with
PAGE_SIZE >> 5 (128 bytes for a 4KB page configuration) and the creation
of the "kmalloc-128" cache would try to place the management objects
off-slab. However, since KMALLOC_MIN_SIZE is already 128 and
freelist_size == 32 in __kmem_cache_create(), kmalloc_slab(freelist_size)
returns NULL (kmalloc_caches[7] not populated yet). This triggers the
following bug on arm64:

In slub_order(), the order starts from max(min_order,
get_order(min_objects * size)). When (min_objects * size) has different
order from (min_objects * size + reserved), it will skip this order via a

This patch optimizes this a little by calculating the start order with
`reserved' in consideration and removing the check in loop.

Currently, when kmem_cache_destroy() is called for a global cache, we
print a warning for each per memcg cache attached to it that has active
objects (see shutdown_cache). This is redundant, because it gives no new
information and only clutters the log. If a cache being destroyed has
active objects, there must be a memory leak in the module that created the
cache, and it does not matter if the cache was used by users in memory
cgroups or not.
This patch moves the warning from shutdown_cache(), which is called for
shutting down both global and per memcg caches, to kmem_cache_destroy(),
so that the warning is only printed once if there are objects left in the
cache being destroyed.

Currently, we do not clear pointers to per memcg caches in the
memcg_params.memcg_caches array when a global cache is destroyed with
kmem_cache_destroy.
This is fine if the global cache does get destroyed. However, a cache can
be left on the list if it still has active objects when kmem_cache_destroy
is called (due to a memory leak). If this happens, the entries in the
array will point to already freed areas, which is likely to result in data
corruption when the cache is reused (via slab merging).

"The cgroup core saw several significant updates this cycle:
- percpu_rwsem for threadgroup locking is reinstated. This was
temporarily dropped due to down_write latency issues. Oleg's
rework of percpu_rwsem which is scheduled to be merged in this
merge window resolves the issue.
- On the v2 hierarchy, when controllers are enabled and disabled, all
operations are atomic and can fail and revert cleanly. This allows
->can_attach() failure which is necessary for cpu RT slices.
- Tasks now stay associated with the original cgroups after exit
until released. This allows tracking resources held by zombies
(e.g. pids) and makes it easy to find out where zombies came from
on the v2 hierarchy. The pids controller was broken before these
changes as zombies escaped the limits; unfortunately, updating this
behavior required too many invasive changes and I don't think it's
a good idea to backport them, so the pids controller on 4.3, the
first version which included the pids controller, will stay broken
at least until I'm sure about the cgroup core changes.

It turns out that at least some versions of glibc end up reading
/proc/meminfo at every single startup, because glibc wants to know the
amount of memory the machine has. And while that's arguably insane,
it's just how things are.
And it turns out that it's not all that expensive most of the time, but
the vmalloc information statistics (amount of virtual memory used in the
vmalloc space, and the biggest remaining chunk) can be rather expensive
to compute.
The 'get_vmalloc_info()' function actually showed up on my profiles as
4% of the CPU usage of "make test" in the git source repository, because
the git tests are lots of very short-lived shell-scripts etc.
It turns out that apparently this same silly vmalloc info gathering
shows up on the facebook servers too, according to Dave Jones. So it's
not just "make test" for git.
We had two patches to just cache the information (one by me, one by
Ingo) to mitigate this issue, but the whole vmalloc information of of
rather dubious value to begin with, and people who *actually* want to
know what the situation is wrt the vmalloc area should just look at the
much more complete /proc/vmallocinfo instead.
In fact, according to my testing - and perhaps more importantly,
according to that big search engine in the sky: Google - there is
nothing out there that actually cares about those two expensive fields:
VmallocUsed and VmallocChunk.
So let's try to just remove them entirely. Actually, this just removes
the computation and reports the numbers as zero for now, just to try to
be minimally intrusive.
If this breaks anything, we'll obviously have to re-introduce the code
to compute this all and add the caching patches on top. But if given
the option, I'd really prefer to just remove this bad idea entirely
rather than add even more code to work around our historical mistake
that likely nobody really cares about.

Currently a simple program below issues a sendfile(2) system call which
takes about 62 days to complete in my test KVM instance.
int fd;
off_t off = 0;
fd = open("file", O_RDWR | O_TRUNC | O_SYNC | O_CREAT, 0644);
ftruncate(fd, 2);
lseek(fd, 0, SEEK_END);
sendfile(fd, fd, &off, 0xfffffff);
Now you should not ask kernel to do a stupid stuff like copying 256MB in
2-byte chunks and call fsync(2) after each chunk but if you do, sysadmin
should have a way to stop you.
We actually do have a check for fatal_signal_pending() in
generic_perform_write() which triggers in this path however because we
always succeed in writing something before the check is done, we return
value > 0 from generic_perform_write() and thus the information about
signal gets lost.
Fix the problem by doing the signal check before writing anything. That
way generic_perform_write() returns -EINTR, the error gets propagated up
and the sendfile loop terminates early.

ARCHes with special requirements for evicting THP backing TLB entries
can implement this.
Otherwise also, it can help optimize TLB flush in THP regime.
stock flush_tlb_range() typically has optimization to nuke the entire
TLB if flush span is greater than a certain threshhold, which will
likely be true for a single huge page. Thus a single thp flush will
invalidate the entrire TLB which is not desirable.

Commit 6afdb859b7 ("mm: do not ignore mapping_gfp_mask in page cache
allocation paths") has caught some users of hardcoded GFP_KERNEL used in
the page cache allocation paths. This, however, wasn't complete and
there were others which went unnoticed.
Dave Chinner has reported the following deadlock for xfs on loop device:
: With the recent merge of the loop device changes, I'm now seeing
: XFS deadlock on my single CPU, 1GB RAM VM running xfs/073.
:
: The deadlocked is as follows:
:
: kloopd1: loop_queue_read_work
: xfs_file_iter_read
: lock XFS inode XFS_IOLOCK_SHARED (on image file)
: page cache read (GFP_KERNEL)
: radix tree alloc
: memory reclaim
: reclaim XFS inodes
: log force to unpin inodes
: <wait for log IO completion>
:
: xfs-cil/loop1: <does log force IO work>
: xlog_cil_push
: xlog_write
: <loop issuing log writes>
: xlog_state_get_iclog_space()
: <blocks due to all log buffers under write io>
: <waits for IO completion>
:
: kloopd1: loop_queue_write_work
: xfs_file_write_iter
: lock XFS inode XFS_IOLOCK_EXCL (on image file)
: <wait for inode to be unlocked>
:
: i.e. the kloopd, with it's split read and write work queues, has
: introduced a dependency through memory reclaim. i.e. that writes
: need to be able to progress for reads make progress.
:
: The problem, fundamentally, is that mpage_readpages() does a
: GFP_KERNEL allocation, rather than paying attention to the inode's
: mapping gfp mask, which is set to GFP_NOFS.
:
: The didn't used to happen, because the loop device used to issue
: reads through the splice path and that does:
:
: error = add_to_page_cache_lru(page, mapping, index,
: GFP_KERNEL & mapping_gfp_mask(mapping));
This has changed by commit aa4d86163e ("block: loop: switch to VFS
ITER_BVEC").
This patch changes mpage_readpage{s} to follow gfp mask set for the
mapping. There are, however, other places which are doing basically the
same.
lustre:ll_dir_filler is doing GFP_KERNEL from the function which
apparently uses GFP_NOFS for other allocations so let's make this
consistent.
cifs:readpages_get_pages is called from cifs_readpages and
__cifs_readpages_from_fscache called from the same path obeys mapping
gfp.
ramfs_nommu_expand_for_mapping is hardcoding GFP_KERNEL as well
regardless it uses mapping_gfp_mask for the page allocation.
ext4_mpage_readpages is the called from the page cache allocation path
same as read_pages and read_cache_pages
As I've noticed in my previous post I cannot say I would be happy about
sprinkling mapping_gfp_mask all over the place and it sounds like we
should drop gfp_mask argument altogether and use it internally in
__add_to_page_cache_locked that would require all the filesystems to use
mapping gfp consistently which I am not sure is the case here. From a
quick glance it seems that some file system use it all the time while
others are selective.

Currently, cgroup_has_tasks() tests whether the target cgroup has any
css_set linked to it. This works because a css_set's refcnt converges
with the number of tasks linked to it and thus there's no css_set
linked to a cgroup if it doesn't have any live tasks.
To help tracking resource usage of zombie tasks, putting the ref of
css_set will be separated from disassociating the task from the
css_set which means that a cgroup may have css_sets linked to it even
when it doesn't have any live tasks.
This patch replaces cgroup_has_tasks() with cgroup_is_populated()
which tests cgroup->nr_populated instead which locally counts the
number of populated css_sets. Unlike cgroup_has_tasks(),
cgroup_is_populated() is recursive - if any of the descendants is
populated, the cgroup is populated too. While this changes the
meaning of the test, all the existing users are okay with the change.
While at it, replace the open-coded ->populated_cnt test in
cgroup_events_show() with cgroup_is_populated().

The vmstat code uses "schedule_delayed_work_on()" to do the initial
startup of the delayed work on the right CPU, but then once it was
started it would use the non-cpu-specific "schedule_delayed_work()" to
re-schedule it on that CPU.
That just happened to schedule it on the same CPU historically (well, in
almost all situations), but the code _requires_ this work to be per-cpu,
and should say so explicitly rather than depend on the non-cpu-specific
scheduling to schedule on the current CPU.
The timer code is being changed to not be as single-minded in always
running things on the calling CPU.
See also commit 874bbfe600 ("workqueue: make sure delayed work run in
local cpu") that for now maintains the local CPU guarantees just in case
there are other broken users that depended on the accidental behavior.

bdi's are initialized in two steps, bdi_init() and bdi_register(), but
destroyed in a single step by bdi_destroy() which, for a bdi embedded
in a request_queue, is called during blk_cleanup_queue() which makes
the queue invisible and starts the draining of remaining usages.
A request_queue's user can access the congestion state of the embedded
bdi as long as it holds a reference to the queue. As such, it may
access the congested state of a queue which finished
blk_cleanup_queue() but hasn't reached blk_release_queue() yet.
Because the congested state was embedded in backing_dev_info which in
turn is embedded in request_queue, accessing the congested state after
bdi_destroy() was called was fine. The bdi was destroyed but the
memory region for the congested state remained accessible till the
queue got released.
a13f35e871 ("writeback: don't embed root bdi_writeback_congested in
bdi_writeback") changed the situation. Now, the root congested state
which is expected to be pinned while request_queue remains accessible
is separately reference counted and the base ref is put during
bdi_destroy(). This means that the root congested state may go away
prematurely while the queue is between bdi_dstroy() and
blk_cleanup_queue(), which was detected by Andrey's KASAN tests.
The root cause of this problem is that bdi doesn't distinguish the two
steps of destruction, unregistration and release, and now the root
congested state actually requires a separate release step. To fix the
issue, this patch separates out bdi_unregister() and bdi_exit() from
bdi_destroy(). bdi_unregister() is called from blk_cleanup_queue()
and bdi_exit() from blk_release_queue(). bdi_destroy() is now just a
simple wrapper calling the two steps back-to-back.
While at it, the prototype of bdi_destroy() is moved right below
bdi_setup_and_register() so that the counterpart operations are
located together.

For memcg domains, the amount of available memory was calculated as
min(the amount currently in use + headroom according to memcg,
total clean memory)
This isn't quite correct as what should be capped by the amount of
clean memory is the headroom, not the sum of memory in use and
headroom. For example, if a memcg domain has a significant amount of
dirty memory, the above can lead to a value which is lower than the
current amount in use which doesn't make much sense. In most
circumstances, the above leads to a number which is somewhat but not
drastically lower.
As the amount of memory which can be readily allocated to the memcg
domain is capped by the amount of system-wide clean memory which is
not already assigned to the memcg itself, the number we want is
the amount currently in use +
min(headroom according to memcg, clean memory elsewhere in the system)
This patch updates mem_cgroup_wb_stats() to return the number of
filepages and headroom instead of the calculated available pages.
mdtc_cap_avail() is renamed to mdtc_calc_avail() and performs the
above calculation from file, headroom, dirty and globally clean pages.

bdi_for_each_wb() is used in several places to wake up or issue
writeback work items to all wb's (bdi_writeback's) on a given bdi.
The iteration is performed by walking bdi->cgwb_tree; however, the
tree only indexes wb's which are currently active.
For example, when a memcg gets associated with a different blkcg, the
old wb is removed from the tree so that the new one can be indexed.
The old wb starts dying from then on but will linger till all its
inodes are drained. As these dying wb's may still host dirty inodes,
writeback operations which affect all wb's must include them.
bdi_for_each_wb() skipping dying wb's led to sync(2) missing and
failing to sync the inodes belonging to those wb's.
This patch adds a RCU protected @bdi->wb_list which lists all wb's
beloinging to that bdi. wb's are added on creation and removed on
release rather than on the start of destruction. bdi_for_each_wb()
usages are replaced with list_for_each[_continue]_rcu() iterations
over @bdi->wb_list and bdi_for_each_wb() and its helpers are removed.

This reverts commit 998ef75ddb.
The commit itself does not appear to be buggy per se, but it is exposing
a bug in ext4 (and Ted thinks ext3 too, but we solved that by getting
rid of it). It's too late in the release cycle to really worry about
this, even if Dave Hansen has a patch that may actually fix the
underlying ext4 problem. We can (and should) revisit this for the next
release.
The problem is that moving the prefaulting later now exposes a special
case with partially successful writes that isn't handled correctly. And
the prefaulting likely isn't normally even that much of a performance
issue - it looks like at least one reason Dave saw this in his
performance tests is that he also ran them on Skylake that now supports
the new SMAP code, which makes the normally very cheap user space

Its a bit odd that debugfs_create_bool() takes 'u32 *' as an argument,
when all it needs is a boolean pointer.
It would be better to update this API to make it accept 'bool *'
instead, as that will make it more consistent and often more convenient.
Over that bool takes just a byte.
That required updates to all user sites as well, in the same commit
updating the API. regmap core was also using
debugfs_{read|write}_file_bool(), directly and variable types were
updated for that to be bool as well.

mem_cgroup_read_stat() returns a page count by summing per cpu page
counters. The summing is racy wrt. updates, so a transient negative
sum is possible. Callers don't want negative values:
- mem_cgroup_wb_stats() doesn't want negative nr_dirty or nr_writeback.
This could confuse dirty throttling.
- oom reports and memory.stat shouldn't show confusing negative usage.
- tree_usage() already avoids negatives.
Avoid returning negative page counts from mem_cgroup_read_stat() and
convert it to unsigned.

The problem starts with a file backed dirty page which is charged to a
memcg. Then page migration is used to move oldpage to newpage.
Migration:
- copies the oldpage's data to newpage
- clears oldpage.PG_dirty
- sets newpage.PG_dirty
- uncharges oldpage from memcg
- charges newpage to memcg
Clearing oldpage.PG_dirty decrements the charged memcg's dirty page
count.
However, because newpage is not yet charged, setting newpage.PG_dirty
does not increment the memcg's dirty page count. After migration
completes newpage.PG_dirty is eventually cleared, often in
account_page_cleaned(). At this time newpage is charged to a memcg so
the memcg's dirty page count is decremented which causes underflow
because the count was not previously incremented by migration. This
underflow causes balance_dirty_pages() to see a very large unsigned
number of dirty memcg pages which leads to aggressive throttling of
buffered writes by processes in non root memcg.
This issue:
- can harm performance of non root memcg buffered writes.
- can report too small (even negative) values in
memory.stat[(total_)dirty] counters of all memcg, including the root.
To avoid polluting migrate.c with #ifdef CONFIG_MEMCG checks, introduce
page_memcg() and set_page_memcg() helpers.
Test:
0) setup and enter limited memcg
mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test
echo 1G > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/memory.limit_in_bytes
echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cgroup.procs
1) buffered writes baseline
dd if=/dev/zero of=/data/tmp/foo bs=1M count=1k

rm -rf /data/tmp/foo
dd if=/dev/zero of=/data/tmp/foo bs=1M count=1k

(speed, dirty residue)

3) 114 MB/s -33427456 dirty pages 891 MB/s 0 dirty pages
Notice that unpatched baseline performance (1) fell after
migration (3): 841 -> 114 MB/s. In the patched kernel, post
migration performance matches baseline.

SunDong reported the following on
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103841
I think I find a linux bug, I have the test cases is constructed. I
can stable recurring problems in fedora22(4.0.4) kernel version,
arch for x86_64. I construct transparent huge page, when the parent
and child process with MAP_SHARE, MAP_PRIVATE way to access the same
huge page area, it has the opportunity to lead to huge page copy on
write failure, and then it will munmap the child corresponding mmap
area, but then the child mmap area with VM_MAYSHARE attributes, child
process munmap this area can trigger VM_BUG_ON in set_vma_resv_flags
functions (vma - > vm_flags & VM_MAYSHARE).
There were a number of problems with the report (e.g. it's hugetlbfs that
triggers this, not transparent huge pages) but it was fundamentally
correct in that a VM_BUG_ON in set_vma_resv_flags() can be triggered that
looks like this
vma ffff8804651fd0d0 start 00007fc474e00000 end 00007fc475e00000

Modules linked in: xt_pkttype xt_LOG xt_limit [..]
CPU: 38 PID: 26839 Comm: map Not tainted 4.0.4-default #1

The VM_BUG_ON is correct because private and shared mappings have
different reservation accounting but the warning clearly shows that the
VMA is shared.
When a private COW fails to allocate a new page then only the process
that created the VMA gets the page -- all the children unmap the page.
If the children access that data in the future then they get killed.
The problem is that the same file is mapped shared and private. During
the COW, the allocation fails, the VMAs are traversed to unmap the other
private pages but a shared VMA is found and the bug is triggered. This
patch identifies such VMAs and skips them.

Commit description is copied from the original post of this bug:
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.mm/135349
Kernels after v3.9 use kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1) to get the next
larger cache size than the size index INDEX_NODE mapping. In kernels
3.9 and earlier we used malloc_sizes[INDEX_L3 + 1].cs_size.
However, sometimes we can't get the right output we expected via
kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1), causing a BUG().
The mapping table in the latest kernel is like:
index = {0, 1, 2 , 3, 4, 5, 6, n}
size = {0, 96, 192, 8, 16, 32, 64, 2^n}
The mapping table before 3.10 is like this:
index = {0 , 1 , 2, 3, 4 , 5 , 6, n}
size = {32, 64, 96, 128, 192, 256, 512, 2^(n+3)}
The problem on my mips64 machine is as follows:
(1) When configured DEBUG_SLAB && DEBUG_PAGEALLOC && DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC
&& DEBUG_SPINLOCK, the sizeof(struct kmem_cache_node) will be "150",
and the macro INDEX_NODE turns out to be "2": #define INDEX_NODE
kmalloc_index(sizeof(struct kmem_cache_node))
(2) Then the result of kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1) is 8.
(3) Then "if(size >= kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1)" will lead to "size
= PAGE_SIZE".
(4) Then "if ((size >= (PAGE_SIZE >> 3))" test will be satisfied and
"flags |= CFLGS_OFF_SLAB" will be covered.
(5) if (flags & CFLGS_OFF_SLAB)" test will be satisfied and will go to
"cachep->slabp_cache = kmalloc_slab(slab_size, 0u)", and the result
here may be NULL while kernel bootup.
(6) Finally,"BUG_ON(ZERO_OR_NULL_PTR(cachep->slabp_cache));" causes the
BUG info as the following shows (may be only mips64 has this problem):
This patch fixes the problem of kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1) and removes
the BUG by adding 'size >= 256' check to guarantee that all necessary
small sized slabs are initialized regardless sequence of slab size in
mapping table.

For VM_PFNMAP and VM_MIXEDMAP we use vm_ops->pfn_mkwrite instead of
vm_ops->page_mkwrite to notify abort write access. This means we want
vma->vm_page_prot to be write-protected if the VMA provides this vm_ops.
A theoretical scenario that will cause these missed events is:
On writable mapping with vm_ops->pfn_mkwrite, but without
vm_ops->page_mkwrite: read fault followed by write access to the pfn.
Writable pte will be set up on read fault and write fault will not be
generated.
I found it examining Dave's complaint on generic/080:
http://lkml.kernel.org/g/20150831233803.GO3902@dastard
Although I don't think it's the reason.
It shouldn't be a problem for ext2/ext4 as they provide both pfn_mkwrite
and page_mkwrite.

It wasn't explicitly documented but, when a process is being migrated,
cpuset and memcg depend on cgroup_taskset_first() returning the
threadgroup leader; however, this approach is somewhat ghetto and
would no longer work for the planned multi-process migration.
This patch introduces explicit cgroup_taskset_for_each_leader() which
iterates over only the threadgroup leaders and replaces
cgroup_taskset_first() usages for accessing the leader with it.
This prepares both memcg and cpuset for multi-process migration. This
patch also updates the documentation for cgroup_taskset_for_each() to
clarify the iteration rules and removes comments mentioning task
ordering in tasksets.
v2: A previous patch which added threadgroup leader test was dropped.
Patch updated accordingly.

cftype->mode allows controllers to give arbitrary permissions to
interface knobs. Except for "cgroup.event_control", the existing uses
are spurious.
* Some explicitly specify S_IRUGO | S_IWUSR even though that's the
default.
* "cpuset.memory_pressure" specifies S_IRUGO while also setting a
write callback which returns -EACCES. All it needs to do is simply
not setting a write callback.
"cgroup.event_control" uses cftype->mode to make the file
world-writable. It's a misdesigned interface and we don't want
controllers to be tweaking interface file permissions in general.
This patch removes cftype->mode and all its spurious uses and
implements CFTYPE_WORLD_WRITABLE for "cgroup.event_control" which is
marked as compatibility-only.

cgroup_on_dfl() tests whether the cgroup's root is the default
hierarchy; however, an individual controller is only interested in
whether the controller is attached to the default hierarchy and never
tests a cgroup which doesn't belong to the hierarchy that the
controller is attached to.
This patch replaces cgroup_on_dfl() tests in controllers with faster
static_key based cgroup_subsys_on_dfl(). This leaves cgroup core as
the only user of cgroup_on_dfl() and the function is moved from the

The shadow which correspond 16 bytes memory may span 2 or 3 bytes. If
the memory is aligned on 8, then the shadow takes only 2 bytes. So we
check "shadow_first_bytes" is enough, and need not to call
"memory_is_poisoned_1(addr + 15);". But the code "if
(likely(!last_byte))" is wrong judgement.
e.g. addr=0, so last_byte = 15 & KASAN_SHADOW_MASK = 7, then the code
will continue to call "memory_is_poisoned_1(addr + 15);"

introduces a function copy_from_early_mem() into mm/early_ioremap.c
which itself calls early_memremap()/early_memunmap(). However, since
early_memunmap() has not been declared yet at this point in the .c file,
nor by any explicitly included header files, we are depending on a
transitive include of asm/early_ioremap.h to declare it, which is
fragile.
So instead, include this header explicitly.

Pull blk-cg updates from Jens Axboe:
"A bit later in the cycle, but this has been in the block tree for a a
while. This is basically four patchsets from Tejun, that improve our
buffered cgroup writeback. It was dependent on the other cgroup
changes, but they went in earlier in this cycle.
Series 1 is set of 5 patches that has cgroup writeback updates:
- bdi_writeback iteration fix which could lead to some wb's being
skipped or repeated during e.g. sync under memory pressure.
- Simplification of wb work wait mechanism.
- Writeback tracepoints updated to report cgroup.
Series 2 is is a set of updates for the CFQ cgroup writeback handling:
cfq has always charged all async IOs to the root cgroup. It didn't
have much choice as writeback didn't know about cgroups and there
was no way to tell who to blame for a given writeback IO.
writeback finally grew support for cgroups and now tags each
writeback IO with the appropriate cgroup to charge it against.
This patchset updates cfq so that it follows the blkcg each bio is
tagged with. Async cfq_queues are now shared across cfq_group,
which is per-cgroup, instead of per-request_queue cfq_data. This
makes all IOs follow the weight based IO resource distribution
implemented by cfq.
- Switched from GFP_ATOMIC to GFP_NOWAIT as suggested by Jeff.
- Other misc review points addressed, acks added and rebased.
Series 3 is the blkcg policy cleanup patches:
This patchset contains assorted cleanups for blkcg_policy methods
and blk[c]g_policy_data handling.
- alloc/free added for blkg_policy_data. exit dropped.
- alloc/free added for blkcg_policy_data.
- blk-throttle's async percpu allocation is replaced with direct
allocation.
- all methods now take blk[c]g_policy_data instead of blkcg_gq or
blkcg.
And finally, series 4 is a set of patches cleaning up the blkcg stats
handling:
blkcg's stats have always been somwhat of a mess. This patchset
tries to improve the situation a bit.
- The following patches added to consolidate blkcg entry point and
blkg creation. This is in itself is an improvement and helps
colllecting common stats on bio issue.
- per-blkg stats now accounted on bio issue rather than request
completion so that bio based and request based drivers can behave

We rely on vma->vm_ops == NULL to detect anonymous VMA: see
vma_is_anonymous(), but some drivers doesn't set ->vm_ops.
As a result we can end up with anonymous page in private file mapping.
That should not lead to serious misbehaviour, but nevertheless is wrong.
Let's fix by setting up dummy ->vm_ops for file mmapping if f_op->mmap()
didn't set its own.
The patch also adds sanity check into __vma_link_rb(). It will help
catch broken VMAs which inserted directly into mm_struct via
insert_vm_struct().

Add the additional "vm_flags_t vm_flags" argument to do_mmap_pgoff(),
rename it to do_mmap(), and re-introduce do_mmap_pgoff() as a simple
wrapper on top of do_mmap(). Perhaps we should update the callers of
do_mmap_pgoff() and kill it later.
This way mpx_mmap() can simply call do_mmap(vm_flags => VM_MPX) and do not
play with vm internals.
After this change mmap_region() has a single user outside of mmap.c,
arch/tile/mm/elf.c:arch_setup_additional_pages(). It would be nice to
change arch/tile/ and unexport mmap_region().

Knowing the portion of memory that is not used by a certain application or
memory cgroup (idle memory) can be useful for partitioning the system
efficiently, e.g. by setting memory cgroup limits appropriately.
Currently, the only means to estimate the amount of idle memory provided
by the kernel is /proc/PID/{clear_refs,smaps}: the user can clear the
access bit for all pages mapped to a particular process by writing 1 to
clear_refs, wait for some time, and then count smaps:Referenced. However,
this method has two serious shortcomings:
- it does not count unmapped file pages
- it affects the reclaimer logic
To overcome these drawbacks, this patch introduces two new page flags,
Idle and Young, and a new sysfs file, /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap.
A page's Idle flag can only be set from userspace by setting bit in
/sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap at the offset corresponding to the page,
and it is cleared whenever the page is accessed either through page tables
(it is cleared in page_referenced() in this case) or using the read(2)
system call (mark_page_accessed()). Thus by setting the Idle flag for
pages of a particular workload, which can be found e.g. by reading
/proc/PID/pagemap, waiting for some time to let the workload access its
working set, and then reading the bitmap file, one can estimate the amount
of pages that are not used by the workload.
The Young page flag is used to avoid interference with the memory
reclaimer. A page's Young flag is set whenever the Access bit of a page
table entry pointing to the page is cleared by writing to the bitmap file.
If page_referenced() is called on a Young page, it will add 1 to its
return value, therefore concealing the fact that the Access bit was
cleared.
Note, since there is no room for extra page flags on 32 bit, this feature
uses extended page flags when compiled on 32 bit.

In the scope of the idle memory tracking feature, which is introduced by
the following patch, we need to clear the referenced/accessed bit not only
in primary, but also in secondary ptes. The latter is required in order
to estimate wss of KVM VMs. At the same time we want to avoid flushing
tlb, because it is quite expensive and it won't really affect the final
result.
Currently, there is no function for clearing pte young bit that would meet
our requirements, so this patch introduces one. To achieve that we have
to add a new mmu-notifier callback, clear_young, since there is no method
for testing-and-clearing a secondary pte w/o flushing tlb. The new method
is not mandatory and currently only implemented by KVM.

Hwpoison allows to filter pages by memory cgroup ino. Currently, it
calls try_get_mem_cgroup_from_page to obtain the cgroup from a page and
then its ino using cgroup_ino, but now we have a helper method for
that, page_cgroup_ino, so use it instead.
This patch also loosens the hwpoison memcg filter dependency rules - it
makes it depend on CONFIG_MEMCG instead of CONFIG_MEMCG_SWAP, because
hwpoison memcg filter does not require anything (nor it used to) from
CONFIG_MEMCG_SWAP side.

This patchset introduces a new user API for tracking user memory pages
that have not been used for a given period of time. The purpose of this
is to provide the userspace with the means of tracking a workload's
working set, i.e. the set of pages that are actively used by the
workload. Knowing the working set size can be useful for partitioning the
system more efficiently, e.g. by tuning memory cgroup limits
appropriately, or for job placement within a compute cluster.
==== USE CASES ====
The unified cgroup hierarchy has memory.low and memory.high knobs, which
are defined as the low and high boundaries for the workload working set
size. However, the working set size of a workload may be unknown or
change in time. With this patch set, one can periodically estimate the
amount of memory unused by each cgroup and tune their memory.low and
memory.high parameters accordingly, therefore optimizing the overall
memory utilization.
Another use case is balancing workloads within a compute cluster. Knowing
how much memory is not really used by a workload unit may help take a more
optimal decision when considering migrating the unit to another node
within the cluster.
Also, as noted by Minchan, this would be useful for per-process reclaim
(https://lwn.net/Articles/545668/). With idle tracking, we could reclaim idle
pages only by smart user memory manager.
==== USER API ====
The user API consists of two new files:
* /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap. This file implements a bitmap where each
bit corresponds to a page, indexed by PFN. When the bit is set, the
corresponding page is idle. A page is considered idle if it has not been
accessed since it was marked idle. To mark a page idle one should set the
bit corresponding to the page by writing to the file. A value written to the
file is OR-ed with the current bitmap value. Only user memory pages can be
marked idle, for other page types input is silently ignored. Writing to this
file beyond max PFN results in the ENXIO error. Only available when
CONFIG_IDLE_PAGE_TRACKING is set.
This file can be used to estimate the amount of pages that are not
used by a particular workload as follows:
1. mark all pages of interest idle by setting corresponding bits in the
/sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap
2. wait until the workload accesses its working set
3. read /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap and count the number of bits set
* /proc/kpagecgroup. This file contains a 64-bit inode number of the
memory cgroup each page is charged to, indexed by PFN. Only available when
CONFIG_MEMCG is set.
This file can be used to find all pages (including unmapped file pages)
accounted to a particular cgroup. Using /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap, one
can then estimate the cgroup working set size.
For an example of using these files for estimating the amount of unused
memory pages per each memory cgroup, please see the script attached
below.
==== REASONING ====
The reason to introduce the new user API instead of using
/proc/PID/{clear_refs,smaps} is that the latter has two serious
drawbacks:
- it does not count unmapped file pages
- it affects the reclaimer logic
The new API attempts to overcome them both. For more details on how it
is achieved, please see the comment to patch 6.
==== PATCHSET STRUCTURE ====
The patch set is organized as follows:
- patch 1 adds page_cgroup_ino() helper for the sake of
/proc/kpagecgroup and patches 2-3 do related cleanup
- patch 4 adds /proc/kpagecgroup, which reports cgroup ino each page is
charged to
- patch 5 introduces a new mmu notifier callback, clear_young, which is
a lightweight version of clear_flush_young; it is used in patch 6
- patch 6 implements the idle page tracking feature, including the
userspace API, /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap
- patch 7 exports idle flag via /proc/kpageflags
==== SIMILAR WORKS ====
Originally, the patch for tracking idle memory was proposed back in 2011
by Michel Lespinasse (see http://lwn.net/Articles/459269/). The main
difference between Michel's patch and this one is that Michel implemented
a kernel space daemon for estimating idle memory size per cgroup while
this patch only provides the userspace with the minimal API for doing the
job, leaving the rest up to the userspace. However, they both share the
same idea of Idle/Young page flags to avoid affecting the reclaimer logic.
==== PERFORMANCE EVALUATION ====
SPECjvm2008 (https://www.spec.org/jvm2008/) was used to evaluate the
performance impact introduced by this patch set. Three runs were carried
out:
- base: kernel without the patch
- patched: patched kernel, the feature is not used
- patched-active: patched kernel, 1 minute-period daemon is used for
tracking idle memory
For tracking idle memory, idlememstat utility was used:

This series makes creation of the zpool and compressor dynamic, so that
they can be changed at runtime. This makes using/configuring zswap
easier, as before this zswap had to be configured at boot time, using boot
params.
This uses a single list to track both the zpool and compressor together,
although Seth had mentioned an alternative which is to track the zpools
and compressors using separate lists. In the most common case, only a
single zpool and single compressor, using one list is slightly simpler
than using two lists, and for the uncommon case of multiple zpools and/or
compressors, using one list is slightly less simple (and uses slightly
more memory, probably) than using two lists.
This patch (of 4):
Add zpool_has_pool() function, indicating if the specified type of zpool
is available (i.e. zsmalloc or zbud). This allows checking if a pool is
available, without actually trying to allocate it, similar to
crypto_has_alg().
This is used by a following patch to zswap that enables the dynamic
runtime creation of zswap zpools.

We can avoid taking class ->lock around zs_can_compact() in
zs_shrinker_count(), because the number that we return back is outdated
in general case, by design. We have different sources that are able to
change class's state right after we return from zs_can_compact() --
ongoing I/O operations, manually triggered compaction, or two of them
happening simultaneously.
We re-do this calculations during compaction on a per class basis
anyway.
zs_unregister_shrinker() will not return until we have an active
shrinker, so classes won't unexpectedly disappear while
zs_shrinker_count() iterates them.

We want to see more ZS_FULL pages and less ZS_ALMOST_{FULL, EMPTY}
pages. Put a page with higher ->inuse count first within its
->fullness_list, which will give us better chances to fill up this page
with new objects (find_get_zspage() return ->fullness_list head for new
object allocation), so some zspages will become ZS_ALMOST_FULL/ZS_FULL
quicker.
It performs a trivial and cheap ->inuse compare which does not slow down
zsmalloc and in the worst case keeps the list pages in no particular
order.
A more expensive solution could sort fullness_list by ->inuse count.

Perform automatic pool compaction by a shrinker when system is getting
tight on memory.
User-space has a very little knowledge regarding zsmalloc fragmentation
and basically has no mechanism to tell whether compaction will result in
any memory gain. Another issue is that user space is not always aware
of the fact that system is getting tight on memory. Which leads to very
uncomfortable scenarios when user space may start issuing compaction
'randomly' or from crontab (for example). Fragmentation is not always
necessarily bad, allocated and unused objects, after all, may be filled
with the data later, w/o the need of allocating a new zspage. On the
other hand, we obviously don't want to waste memory when the system
needs it.
Compaction now has a relatively quick pool scan so we are able to
estimate the number of pages that will be freed easily, which makes it
possible to call this function from a shrinker->count_objects()
callback. We also abort compaction as soon as we detect that we can't
free any pages any more, preventing wasteful objects migrations.

Compaction returns back to zram the number of migrated objects, which is
quite uninformative -- we have objects of different sizes so user space
cannot obtain any valuable data from that number. Change compaction to
operate in terms of pages and return back to compaction issuer the
number of pages that were freed during compaction. So from now on we
will export more meaningful value in zram<id>/mm_stat -- the number of
freed (compacted) pages.
This requires:
(a) a rename of `num_migrated' to 'pages_compacted'
(b) a internal API change -- return first_page's fullness_group from
putback_zspage(), so we know when putback_zspage() did
free_zspage(). It helps us to account compaction stats correctly.

`zs_compact_control' accounts the number of migrated objects but it has
a limited lifespan -- we lose it as soon as zs_compaction() returns back
to zram. It worked fine, because (a) zram had it's own counter of
migrated objects and (b) only zram could trigger compaction. However,
this does not work for automatic pool compaction (not issued by zram).
To account objects migrated during auto-compaction (issued by the
shrinker) we need to store this number in zs_pool.
Define a new `struct zs_pool_stats' structure to keep zs_pool's stats
there. It provides only `num_migrated', as of this writing, but it
surely can be extended.
A new zsmalloc zs_pool_stats() symbol exports zs_pool's stats back to
caller.
Use zs_pool_stats() in zram and remove `num_migrated' from zram_stats.

Always account per-class `zs_size_stat' stats. This data will help us
make better decisions during compaction. We are especially interested
in OBJ_ALLOCATED and OBJ_USED, which can tell us if class compaction
will result in any memory gain.
For instance, we know the number of allocated objects in the class, the
number of objects being used (so we also know how many objects are not
used) and the number of objects per-page. So we can ensure if we have
enough unused objects to form at least one ZS_EMPTY zspage during
compaction.
We calculate this value on per-class basis so we can calculate a total
number of zspages that can be released. Which is exactly what a
shrinker wants to know.

This patchset tweaks compaction and makes it possible to trigger pool
compaction automatically when system is getting low on memory.
zsmalloc in some cases can suffer from a notable fragmentation and
compaction can release some considerable amount of memory. The problem
here is that currently we fully rely on user space to perform compaction
when needed. However, performing zsmalloc compaction is not always an
obvious thing to do. For example, suppose we have a `idle' fragmented
(compaction was never performed) zram device and system is getting low
on memory due to some 3rd party user processes (gcc LTO, or firefox,
etc.). It's quite unlikely that user space will issue zpool compaction
in this case. Besides, user space cannot tell for sure how badly pool
is fragmented; however, this info is known to zsmalloc and, hence, to a
shrinker.
This patch (of 7):
__zs_compact() does not use `nr_to_migrate', drop it.

Commit 1dfb059b94 ("thp: reduce khugepaged freezing latency") fixed
khugepaged to do not block a system suspend. But the result is that it
could not get interrupted before the given timeout because the condition
for the wait event is "false".
This patch puts back the original approach but it uses
freezable_schedule_timeout_interruptible() instead of
schedule_timeout_interruptible(). It does the right thing. I am pretty
sure that the freezable variant was not used in the original fix only
because it was not available at that time.
The regression has been there for ages. It was not critical. It just
did the allocation throttling a little bit more aggressively.
I found this problem when converting the kthread to kthread worker API
and trying to understand the code.
This bug is thought to have minimal userspace-visible impact. Somebody
could set a high alloc_sleep value by mistake, and then try to fix it
back, but khugepaged would keep sleeping until the high value expires.

We cache isolate_start_pfn before entering isolate_migratepages(). If
pageblock is skipped in isolate_migratepages() due to whatever reason,
cc->migrate_pfn can be far from isolate_start_pfn hence we flush pages
that were freed. For example, the following scenario can be possible:
- assume order-9 compaction, pageblock order is 9
- start_isolate_pfn is 0x200
- isolate_migratepages()
- skip a number of pageblocks
- start to isolate from pfn 0x600
- cc->migrate_pfn = 0x620
- return
- last_migrated_pfn is set to 0x200
- check flushing condition
- current_block_start is set to 0x600
- last_migrated_pfn < current_block_start then do useless flush
This wrong flush would not help the performance and success rate so this
patch tries to fix it. One simple way to know the exact position where
we start to isolate migratable pages is that we cache it in
isolate_migratepages() before entering actual isolation. This patch
implements that and fixes the problem.

alloc_pages_exact_node() was introduced in commit 6484eb3e2a ("page
allocator: do not check NUMA node ID when the caller knows the node is
valid") as an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node(), that doesn't
fallback to current node for nid == NUMA_NO_NODE. Unfortunately the
name of the function can easily suggest that the allocation is
restricted to the given node and fails otherwise. In truth, the node is
only preferred, unless __GFP_THISNODE is passed among the gfp flags.
The misleading name has lead to mistakes in the past, see for example
commits 5265047ac3 ("mm, thp: really limit transparent hugepage
allocation to local node") and b360edb43f ("mm, mempolicy:
migrate_to_node should only migrate to node").
Another issue with the name is that there's a family of
alloc_pages_exact*() functions where 'exact' means exact size (instead
of page order), which leads to more confusion.
To prevent further mistakes, this patch effectively renames
alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node() to better convey that
it's an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node() not intended for general
usage. Both functions get described in comments.
It has been also considered to really provide a convenience function for
allocations restricted to a node, but the major opinion seems to be that
__GFP_THISNODE already provides that functionality and we shouldn't
duplicate the API needlessly. The number of users would be small
anyway.
Existing callers of alloc_pages_exact_node() are simply converted to
call __alloc_pages_node(), with the exception of sba_alloc_coherent()
which open-codes the check for NUMA_NO_NODE, so it is converted to use
alloc_pages_node() instead. This means it no longer performs some
VM_BUG_ON checks, and since the current check for nid in
alloc_pages_node() uses a 'nid < 0' comparison (which includes
NUMA_NO_NODE), it may hide wrong values which would be previously
exposed.
Both differences will be rectified by the next patch.
To sum up, this patch makes no functional changes, except temporarily
hiding potentially buggy callers. Restricting the checks in
alloc_pages_node() is left for the next patch which can in turn expose
more existing buggy callers.

shmem_recalc_inode also updates counter used by statfs and

memory_failure() can be called at any page at any time, which means that
we can't eliminate the possibility of containment failure. In such case
the best option is to leak the page intentionally (and never touch it
later.)
We have an unpoison function for testing, and it cannot handle such
containment-failed pages, which results in kernel panic (visible with
various calltraces.) So this patch suggests that we limit the
unpoisonable pages to properly contained pages and ignore any other
ones.
Testers are recommended to keep in mind that there're un-unpoisonable

put_page -> release refcount held by get_hwpoison_page in unpoison_memory
put_page -> release refcount held by isolate_lru_page in __soft_offline_page
migrate_pages
The second put_page() releases refcount held by isolate_lru_page() which
will lead to unmap_and_move() releases the last refcount of page and w/
mapcount still 1 since try_to_unmap() is not called if there is only one
user map the page. Anyway, the page refcount and mapcount will still
mess if the page is mapped by multiple users.
This race was introduced by commit 4491f71260 ("mm/memory-failure: set
PageHWPoison before migrate_pages()"), which focuses on preventing the
reuse of successfully migrated page. Before this commit we prevent the
reuse by changing the migratetype to MIGRATE_ISOLATE during soft
offlining, which has the following problems, so simply reverting the
commit is not a best option:
1) it doesn't eliminate the reuse completely, because
set_migratetype_isolate() can fail to set MIGRATE_ISOLATE to the
target page if the pageblock of the page contains one or more
unmovable pages (i.e. has_unmovable_pages() returns true).
2) the original code changes migratetype to MIGRATE_ISOLATE
forcibly, and sets it to MIGRATE_MOVABLE forcibly after soft offline,
regardless of the original migratetype state, which could impact
other subsystems like memory hotplug or compaction.
This patch moves PageSetHWPoison just after put_page() in
unmap_and_move(), which closes up the reported race window and minimizes
another race window b/w SetPageHWPoison and reallocation (which causes
the reuse of soft-offlined page.) The latter race window still exists
but it's acceptable, because it's rare and effectively the same as
ordinary "containment failure" case even if it happens, so keep the
window open is acceptable.

Hwpoison injection takes a refcount of target page and another refcount

However, current code doesn't release the refcount of head page if the

Fix it by reducing the refcount of head page if the target page is the

When booting an arm64 kernel w/initrd using UEFI/grub, use of mem= will
likely cut off part or all of the initrd. This leaves it outside the
kernel linear map which leads to failure when unpacking. The x86 code
has a similar need to relocate an initrd outside of mapped memory in
some cases.
The current x86 code uses early_memremap() to copy the original initrd
from unmapped to mapped RAM. This patchset creates a generic
copy_from_early_mem() utility based on that x86 code and has arm64 and
x86 share it in their respective initrd relocation code.
This patch (of 3):
In some early boot circumstances, it may be necessary to copy from RAM
outside the kernel linear mapping to mapped RAM. The need to relocate
an initrd is one example in the x86 code. This patch creates a helper
function based on current x86 code.

The compaction free scanner is looking for PageBuddy() pages and
skipping all others. For large compound pages such as THP or hugetlbfs,
we can save a lot of iterations if we skip them at once using their
compound_order(). This is generally unsafe and we can read a bogus
value of order due to a race, but if we are careful, the only danger is
skipping too much.
When tested with stress-highalloc from mmtests on 4GB system with 1GB
hugetlbfs pages, the vmstat compact_free_scanned count decreased by at

The compaction migrate scanner tries to skip THP pages by their order,
to reduce number of iterations for pages it cannot isolate. The check
is only done if PageLRU() is true, which means it applies to THP pages,
but not e.g. hugetlbfs pages or any other non-LRU compound pages, which
we have to iterate by base pages.
This limitation comes from the assumption that it's only safe to read
compound_order() when we have the zone's lru_lock and THP cannot be
split under us. But the only danger (after filtering out order values
that are not below MAX_ORDER, to prevent overflows) is that we skip too
much or too little after reading a bogus compound_order() due to a rare
race. This is the same reasoning as patch 99c0fd5e51 ("mm,
compaction: skip buddy pages by their order in the migrate scanner")
introduced for unsafely reading PageBuddy() order.
After this patch, all pages are tested for PageCompound() and we skip
them by compound_order(). The test is done after the test for
balloon_page_movable() as we don't want to assume if balloon pages (or
other pages with own isolation and migration implementation if a generic
API gets implemented) are compound or not.
When tested with stress-highalloc from mmtests on 4GB system with 1GB
hugetlbfs pages, the vmstat compact_migrate_scanned count decreased by
15%.

Handling the position where compaction free scanner should restart
(stored in cc->free_pfn) got more complex with commit e14c720efd ("mm,
compaction: remember position within pageblock in free pages scanner").
Currently the position is updated in each loop iteration of
isolate_freepages(), although it should be enough to update it only when
breaking from the loop. There's also an extra check outside the loop
updates the position in case we have met the migration scanner.
This can be simplified if we move the test for having isolated enough
from the for-loop header next to the test for contention, and
determining the restart position only in these cases. We can reuse the
isolate_start_pfn variable for this instead of setting cc->free_pfn
directly. Outside the loop, we can simply set cc->free_pfn to current
value of isolate_start_pfn without any extra check.
Also add a VM_BUG_ON to catch possible mistake in the future, in case we
later add a new condition that terminates isolate_freepages_block()
prematurely without also considering the condition in
isolate_freepages().

Assorted compaction cleanups and optimizations. The interesting patches
are 4 and 5. In 4, skipping of compound pages in single iteration is
improved for migration scanner, so it works also for !PageLRU compound
pages such as hugetlbfs, slab etc. Patch 5 introduces this kind of
skipping in the free scanner. The trick is that we can read
compound_order() without any protection, if we are careful to filter out
values larger than MAX_ORDER. The only danger is that we skip too much.
The same trick was already used for reading the freepage order in the
migrate scanner.
To demonstrate improvements of Patches 4 and 5 I've run stress-highalloc
from mmtests, set to simulate THP allocations (including __GFP_COMP) on
a 4GB system where 1GB was occupied by hugetlbfs pages. I'll include
just the relevant stats:
Patch 3 Patch 4 Patch 5
Compaction stalls 7523 7529 7515
Compaction success 323 304 322
Compaction failures 7200 7224 7192
Page migrate success 247778 264395 240737
Page migrate failure 15358 33184 21621
Compaction pages isolated 906928 980192 909983
Compaction migrate scanned 2005277 1692805 1498800
Compaction free scanned 13255284 11539986 9011276
Compaction cost 288 305 277
With 5 iterations per patch, the results are still noisy, but we can see
that Patch 4 does reduce migrate_scanned by 15% thanks to skipping the
hugetlbfs pages at once. Interestingly, free_scanned is also reduced
and I have no idea why. Patch 5 further reduces free_scanned as
expected, by 15%. Other stats are unaffected modulo noise.

This patch (of 5):
Compaction should finish when the migration and free scanner meet, i.e.
they reach the same pageblock. Currently however, the test in
compact_finished() simply just compares the exact pfns, which may yield
a false negative when the free scanner position is in the middle of a
pageblock and the migration scanner reaches the begining of the same
pageblock.
This hasn't been a problem until commit e14c720efd ("mm, compaction:
remember position within pageblock in free pages scanner") allowed the
free scanner position to be in the middle of a pageblock between
invocations. The hot-fix 1d5bfe1ffb ("mm, compaction: prevent
infinite loop in compact_zone") prevented the issue by adding a special
check in the migration scanner to satisfy the current detection of
scanners meeting.
However, the proper fix is to make the detection more robust. This
patch introduces the compact_scanners_met() function that returns true
when the free scanner position is in the same or lower pageblock than
the migration scanner. The special case in isolate_migratepages()
introduced by 1d5bfe1ffb is removed.

Currently a call to dma_pool_alloc() with a ___GFP_ZERO flag returns a
non-zeroed memory region.
This patchset adds support for the __GFP_ZERO flag to dma_pool_alloc(),
adds 2 wrapper functions for allocing zeroed memory from a pool, and
provides a coccinelle script for finding & replacing instances of
dma_pool_alloc() followed by memset(0) with a single dma_pool_zalloc()
call.
There was some concern that this always calls memset() to zero, instead
of passing __GFP_ZERO into the page allocator.
[https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/7/15/881]
I ran a test on my system to get an idea of how often dma_pool_alloc()
calls into pool_alloc_page().
After Boot: [ 30.119863] alloc_calls:541, page_allocs:7
After an hour: [ 3600.951031] alloc_calls:9566, page_allocs:12
After copying 1GB file onto a USB drive:
[ 4260.657148] alloc_calls:17225, page_allocs:12
It doesn't look like dma_pool_alloc() calls down to the page allocator
very often (at least on my system).
This patch (of 4):
Currently the __GFP_ZERO flag is ignored by dma_pool_alloc().
Make dma_pool_alloc() zero the memory if this flag is set.

reclaim_clean_pages_from_list() assumes that shrink_page_list() returns
number of pages removed from the candidate list. But shrink_page_list()
puts back mlocked pages without passing it to caller and without
counting as nr_reclaimed. This increases nr_isolated.
To fix this, this patch changes shrink_page_list() to pass unevictable
pages back to caller. Caller will take care those pages.
Minchan said:
It fixes two issues.
1. With unevictable page, cma_alloc will be successful.
Exactly speaking, cma_alloc of current kernel will fail due to
unevictable pages.
2. fix leaking of NR_ISOLATED counter of vmstat
With it, too_many_isolated works. Otherwise, it could make hang until
the process get SIGKILL.

If transparent huge pages are enabled, we can isolate many more pages
than we actually need to scan, because we count both single and huge
pages equally in isolate_lru_pages().
Since commit 5bc7b8aca9 ("mm: thp: add split tail pages to shrink
page list in page reclaim"), we scan all the tail pages immediately
after a huge page split (see shrink_page_list()). As a result, we can
reclaim up to SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX * HPAGE_PMD_NR (512 MB) in one run!
This is easy to catch on memcg reclaim with zswap enabled. The latter
makes swapout instant so that if we happen to scan an unreferenced huge
page we will evict both its head and tail pages immediately, which is
likely to result in excessive reclaim.

Bootmem isn't popular any more, but some architectures still use it, and
freeing to bootmem after calling free_all_bootmem_core() can end up
scribbling over random memory. Instead, make sure the kernel generates
a warning in this case by ensuring the node_bootmem_map field is
non-NULL when are freeing or marking bootmem.
An instance of this bug was just fixed in the tile architecture ("tile:
use free_bootmem_late() for initrd") and catching this case more widely
seems like a good thing.

When parsing SRAT, all memory ranges are added into numa_meminfo. In
numa_init(), before entering numa_cleanup_meminfo(), all possible memory
ranges are in numa_meminfo. And numa_cleanup_meminfo() removes all
ranges over max_pfn or empty.
But, this only works if the nodes are continuous. Let's have a look at
the following example:
We have an SRAT like this:
SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x00000000-0x5fffffff]
SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x100000000-0x1ffffffffff]
SRAT: Node 1 PXM 1 [mem 0x20000000000-0x3ffffffffff]
SRAT: Node 4 PXM 2 [mem 0x40000000000-0x5ffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 5 PXM 3 [mem 0x60000000000-0x7ffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 2 PXM 4 [mem 0x80000000000-0x9ffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 3 PXM 5 [mem 0xa0000000000-0xbffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 6 PXM 6 [mem 0xc0000000000-0xdffffffffff] hotplug
SRAT: Node 7 PXM 7 [mem 0xe0000000000-0xfffffffffff] hotplug
On boot, only node 0,1,2,3 exist.
And the numa_meminfo will look like this:
numa_meminfo.nr_blks = 9
1. on node 0: [0, 60000000]
2. on node 0: [100000000, 20000000000]
3. on node 1: [20000000000, 40000000000]
4. on node 4: [40000000000, 60000000000]
5. on node 5: [60000000000, 80000000000]
6. on node 2: [80000000000, a0000000000]
7. on node 3: [a0000000000, a0800000000]
8. on node 6: [c0000000000, a0800000000]
9. on node 7: [e0000000000, a0800000000]
And numa_cleanup_meminfo() will merge 1 and 2, and remove 8,9 because the
end address is over max_pfn, which is a0800000000. But 4 and 5 are not
removed because their end addresses are less then max_pfn. But in fact,
node 4 and 5 don't exist.
In a word, numa_cleanup_meminfo() is not able to handle holes between nodes.
Since memory ranges in node 4 and 5 are in numa_meminfo, in
numa_register_memblks(), node 4 and 5 will be mistakenly set to online.
If you run lscpu, it will show:
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-14,128-142
NUMA node1 CPU(s): 15-29,143-157
NUMA node2 CPU(s):
NUMA node3 CPU(s):
NUMA node4 CPU(s): 62-76,190-204
NUMA node5 CPU(s): 78-92,206-220
In this patch, we use memblock_overlaps_region() to check if ranges in
numa_meminfo overlap with ranges in memory_block. Since memory_block
contains all available memory at boot time, if they overlap, it means the
ranges exist. If not, then remove them from numa_meminfo.
After this patch, lscpu will show:
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-14,128-142
NUMA node1 CPU(s): 15-29,143-157
NUMA node4 CPU(s): 62-76,190-204

This is based on the shmem version, but it has diverged quite a bit. We
have no swap to worry about, nor the new file sealing. Add
synchronication via the fault mutex table to coordinate page faults,
fallocate allocation and fallocate hole punch.
What this allows us to do is move physical memory in and out of a
hugetlbfs file without having it mapped. This also gives us the ability
to support MADV_REMOVE since it is currently implemented using
fallocate(). MADV_REMOVE lets madvise() remove pages from the middle of
a hugetlbfs file, which wasn't possible before.
hugetlbfs fallocate only operates on whole huge pages.

In vma_has_reserves(), the current assumption is that reserves are

with fallocate hole punch. When punching a hole, the present page will
be deleted as well as the region/reserve map entry (and hence any
reservation). vma_has_reserves is passed "chg" which indicates whether
or not a region/reserve map is present. Use this to determine if
reserves are actually present or were removed via hole punch.

Modify truncate_hugepages() to take a range of pages (start, end)
instead of simply start. If an end value of LLONG_MAX is passed, the
current "truncate" functionality is maintained. Existing callers are
modified to pass LLONG_MAX as end of range. By keying off end ==
LLONG_MAX, the routine behaves differently for truncate and hole punch.
Page removal is now synchronized with page allocation via faults by
using the fault mutex table. The hole punch case can experience the
rare region_del error and must handle accordingly.
Add the routine hugetlb_fix_reserve_counts to fix up reserve counts in
the case where region_del returns an error.
Since the routine handles more than just the truncate case, it is
renamed to remove_inode_hugepages(). To be consistent, the routine
truncate_huge_page() is renamed remove_huge_page().
Downstream of remove_inode_hugepages(), the routine
hugetlb_unreserve_pages() is also modified to take a range of pages.
hugetlb_unreserve_pages is modified to detect an error from region_del and
pass it back to the caller.

fallocate hole punch will want to remove a specific range of pages. The
existing region_truncate() routine deletes all region/reserve map
entries after a specified offset. region_del() will provide this same
functionality if the end of region is specified as LONG_MAX. Hence,
region_del() can replace region_truncate().
Unlike region_truncate(), region_del() can return an error in the rare
case where it can not allocate memory for a region descriptor. This
ONLY happens in the case where an existing region must be split.
Current callers passing LONG_MAX as end of range will never experience
this error and do not need to deal with error handling. Future callers
of region_del() (such as fallocate hole punch) will need to handle this
error.

hugetlbfs is used today by applications that want a high degree of
control over huge page usage. Often, large hugetlbfs files are used to
map a large number huge pages into the application processes. The
applications know when page ranges within these large files will no
longer be used, and ideally would like to release them back to the
subpool or global pools for other uses. The fallocate() system call
provides an interface for preallocation and hole punching within files.
This patch set adds fallocate functionality to hugetlbfs.
fallocate hole punch will want to remove a specific range of pages.
When pages are removed, their associated entries in the region/reserve
map will also be removed. This will break an assumption in the
region_chg/region_add calling sequence. If a new region descriptor must
be allocated, it is done as part of the region_chg processing. In this
way, region_add can not fail because it does not need to attempt an
allocation.
To prepare for fallocate hole punch, create a "cache" of descriptors
that can be used by region_add if necessary. region_chg will ensure
there are sufficient entries in the cache. It will be necessary to
track the number of in progress add operations to know a sufficient
number of descriptors reside in the cache. A new routine region_abort
is added to adjust this in progress count when add operations are
aborted. vma_abort_reservation is also added for callers creating
reservations with vma_needs_reservation/vma_commit_reservation.

The pair of get/set_freepage_migratetype() functions are used to cache
pageblock migratetype for a page put on a pcplist, so that it does not
have to be retrieved again when the page is put on a free list (e.g.
when pcplists become full). Historically it was also assumed that the
value is accurate for pages on freelists (as the functions' names
unfortunately suggest), but that cannot be guaranteed without affecting
various allocator fast paths. It is in fact not needed and all such
uses have been removed.
The last remaining (but pointless) usage related to pages of freelists
is in move_freepages(), which this patch removes.
To prevent further confusion, rename the functions to
get/set_pcppage_migratetype() and expand their description. Since all
the users are now in mm/page_alloc.c, move the functions there from the
shared header.

The __test_page_isolated_in_pageblock() is used to verify whether all
pages in pageblock were either successfully isolated, or are hwpoisoned.
Two of the possible state of pages, that are tested, are however bogus
and misleading.
Both tests rely on get_freepage_migratetype(page), which however has no
guarantees about pages on freelists. Specifically, it doesn't guarantee
that the migratetype returned by the function actually matches the
migratetype of the freelist that the page is on. Such guarantee is not
its purpose and would have negative impact on allocator performance.
The first test checks whether the freepage_migratetype equals
MIGRATE_ISOLATE, supposedly to catch races between page isolation and
allocator activity. These races should be fixed nowadays with
51bb1a4093 ("mm/page_alloc: add freepage on isolate pageblock to correct
buddy list") and related patches. As explained above, the check
wouldn't be able to catch them reliably anyway. For the same reason
false positives can happen, although they are harmless, as the
move_freepages() call would just move the page to the same freelist it's
already on. So removing the test is not a bug fix, just cleanup. After
this patch, we assume that all PageBuddy pages are on the correct
freelist and that the races were really fixed. A truly reliable
verification in the form of e.g. VM_BUG_ON() would be complicated and
is arguably not needed.
The second test (page_count(page) == 0 && get_freepage_migratetype(page)
== MIGRATE_ISOLATE) is probably supposed (the code comes from a big
memory isolation patch from 2007) to catch pages on MIGRATE_ISOLATE
pcplists. However, pcplists don't contain MIGRATE_ISOLATE freepages
nowadays, those are freed directly to free lists, so the check is
obsolete. Remove it as well.

=== Short summary ====
iov_iter_fault_in_readable() works around a really rare case and we can
avoid the deadlock it addresses in another way: disable page faults and
work around copy failures by faulting after the copy in a slow path
instead of before in a hot one.
I have a little microbenchmark that does repeated, small writes to tmpfs.
This patch speeds that micro up by 6.2%.
=== Long version ===
When doing a sys_write() we have a source buffer in userspace and then a
target file page.
If both of those are the same physical page, there is a potential deadlock
that we avoid. It would happen something like this:
1. We start the write to the file
2. Allocate page cache page and set it !Uptodate
3. Touch the userspace buffer to copy in the user data
4. Page fault (since source of the write not yet mapped)
5. Page fault code tries to lock the page and deadlocks
(more details on this below)
To avoid this, we prefault the page to guarantee that this fault does not
occur. But, this prefault comes at a cost. It is one of the most
expensive things that we do in a hot write() path (especially if we
compare it to the read path). It is working around a pretty rare case.
To fix this, it's pretty simple. We move the "prefault" code to run after
we attempt the copy. We explicitly disable page faults _during_ the copy,
detect the copy failure, then execute the "prefault" ouside of where the
page lock needs to be held.
iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic() actually already has an implicit
pagefault_disable() inside of it (at least on x86), but we add an explicit
one. I don't think we can depend on every kmap_atomic() implementation to
pagefault_disable() for eternity.
===================================================
The stack trace when this happens looks like this:

__lock_page_or_retry+0x84/0xa0
filemap_fault+0x1ed/0x3d0

vfs_write+0xa6/0x1a0
SyS_write+0x46/0xa0
entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x12/0x6a
0xffffffffffffffff
(Note, this does *NOT* happen in practice today because
the kmap_atomic() does a pagefault_disable(). The trace
above was obtained by taking out the pagefault_disable().)
You can trigger the deadlock with this little code snippet:
fd = open("foo", O_RDWR);
fdmap = mmap(NULL, len, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
write(fd, &fdmap[0], 1);

We want to know per-process workingset size for smart memory management
on userland and we use swap(ex, zram) heavily to maximize memory
efficiency so workingset includes swap as well as RSS.
On such system, if there are lots of shared anonymous pages, it's really
hard to figure out exactly how many each process consumes memory(ie, rss
+ wap) if the system has lots of shared anonymous memory(e.g, android).
This patch introduces SwapPss field on /proc/<pid>/smaps so we can get
more exact workingset size per process.

If two threads write-fault on the same hole at the same time, the winner
of the race will return to userspace and complete their store, only to
have the loser overwrite their store with zeroes. Fix this for now by
taking the i_mmap_sem for write instead of read, and do so outside the
call to get_block(). Now the loser of the race will see the block has
already been zeroed, and will not zero it again.
This severely limits our scalability. I have ideas for improving it, but
those can wait for a later patch.

Similar to vm_insert_pfn(), but for PMDs rather than PTEs. The 'vmf_'
prefix instead of 'vm_' prefix is intended to indicate that it returns a
VMF_ value rather than an errno (which would only have to be converted

This series of patches adds support for using PMD page table entries to
map DAX files. We expect NV-DIMMs to start showing up that are many
gigabytes in size and the memory consumption of 4kB PTEs will be
astronomical.
The patch series leverages much of the Transparant Huge Pages
infrastructure, going so far as to borrow one of Kirill's patches from
his THP page cache series.
This patch (of 10):
Since we're going to have huge pages in page cache, we need to call adjust
file-backed VMA, which potentially can contain huge pages.
For now we call it for all VMAs.
Probably later we will need to introduce a flag to indicate that the VMA
has huge pages.

// now they no longer differ, the 2nd vm_pgoff is wrong
printf("vdso pages differ: %d\n",
!!memcmp(vdso, vdso + PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE));
return 0;
}
Output:
vdso pages differ: 1
vdso pages differ: 0
This is because split_vma() correctly updates ->vm_pgoff, but the logic
in insert_vm_struct() and special_mapping_fault() is absolutely broken,
so the fault at vdso + PAGE_SIZE return the 1st page. The same happens
if you simply unmap the 1st page.
special_mapping_fault() does:
pgoff = vmf->pgoff - vma->vm_pgoff;
and this is _only_ correct if vma->vm_start mmaps the first page from
->vm_private_data array.
vdso or any other user of install_special_mapping() is not anonymous,
it has the "backing storage" even if it is just the array of pages.
So we actually need to make vm_pgoff work as an offset in this array.
Note: this also allows to fix another problem: currently gdb can't access
"[vvar]" memory because in this case special_mapping_fault() doesn't work.
Now that we can use ->vm_pgoff we can implement ->access() and fix this.

special_mapping_fault() is absolutely broken. It seems it was always
wrong, but this didn't matter until vdso/vvar started to use more than
one page.
And after this change vma_is_anonymous() becomes really trivial, it
simply checks vm_ops == NULL. However, I do think the helper makes
sense. There are a lot of ->vm_ops != NULL checks, the helper makes the
caller's code more understandable (self-documented) and this is more
grep-friendly.
This patch (of 3):
Preparation. Add the new simple helper, vma_is_anonymous(vma), and change
handle_pte_fault() to use it. It will have more users.
The name is not accurate, say a hpet_mmap()'ed vma is not anonymous.
Perhaps it should be named vma_has_fault() instead. But it matches the
logic in mmap.c/memory.c (see next changes). "True" just means that a
page fault will use do_anonymous_page().

Minor, but this check is overcomplicated. Two half-intervals do NOT
overlap if END1 <= START2 || END2 <= START1, mremap_to() just needs to
negate this check.

The "new_len > old_len" branch in vma_to_resize() looks very confusing.
It only covers the VM_DONTEXPAND/pgoff checks but everything below is
equally unneeded if new_len == old_len.
Change this code to return if "new_len == old_len", new_len < old_len is
not possible, otherwise the code below is wrong anyway.

move_vma() sets *locked even if move_page_tables() or ->mremap() fails,
change sys_mremap() to check "ret & ~PAGE_MASK".
I think we should simply remove the VM_LOCKED code in move_vma(), that is
why this patch doesn't change move_vma(). But this needs more cleanups.

vma->vm_ops->mremap() looks more natural and clean in move_vma(), and this
way ->mremap() can have more users. Say, vdso.
While at it, s/aio_ring_remap/aio_ring_mremap/.
Note: this is the minimal change before ->mremap() finds another user in
file_operations; this method should have more arguments, and it can be
used to kill arch_remap().

move_vma() can't just return if f_op->mremap() fails, we should unmap the
new vma like we do if move_page_tables() fails. To avoid the code
duplication this patch moves the "move entries back" under the new "if
(err)" branch.

With DAX, pfn mapping becoming more common. The patch adjusts GUP code to
cover pfn mapping for cases when we don't need struct page to proceed.
To make it possible, let's change follow_page() code to return -EEXIST
error code if proper page table entry exists, but no corresponding struct
page. __get_user_page() would ignore the error code and move to the next
page frame.
The immediate effect of the change is working MAP_POPULATE and mlock() on
DAX mappings.

The manpage for move_pages(2) specifies that status code for zero page is
supposed to be -EFAULT. Currently kernel return -ENOENT in this case.
follow_page() can do it for us, if we would ask for FOLL_DUMP. The use of
FOLL_DUMP also means that the upper layer page tables pages are no longer
allocated.

Clark stumbled over a VM_BUG_ON() in -RT which was then was removed by
Johannes in commit f371763a79 ("mm: memcontrol: fix false-positive
VM_BUG_ON() on -rt"). The comment before that patch was a tiny bit better
than it is now. While the patch claimed to fix a false-postive on -RT
this was not the case. None of the -RT folks ACKed it and it was not a
false positive report. That was a *real* problem.
This patch updates the comment that is improper because it refers to
"disabled preemption" as a consequence of that lock being taken. A
spin_lock() disables preemption, true, but in this case the code relies on
the fact that the lock _also_ disables interrupts once it is acquired.
And this is the important detail (which was checked the VM_BUG_ON()) which
needs to be pointed out. This is the hint one needs while looking at the
code. It was explained by Johannes on the list that the per-CPU variables
are protected by local_irq_save(). The BUG_ON() was helpful. This code
has been workarounded in -RT in the meantime. I wouldn't mind running
into more of those if the code in question uses *special* kind of locking
since now there is no verification (in terms of lockdep or BUG_ON()) and
therefore I bring the VM_BUG_ON() check back in.
The two functions after the comment could also have a "local_irq_save()"
dance around them in order to serialize access to the per-CPU variables.
This has been avoided because the interrupts should be off.

Each memblock_region has nid to indicates the Node ID of this range. For
the overlap case, memblock_add_range() inserts the lower part and leave
the upper part as indicated in the overlapped region.
If the nid of the new range differs from the overlapped region, the
information recorded is not correct.
This patch adds a WARN_ON when the nid of the new range differs from the
overlapped region.

If a PTE is unmapped and it's dirty then it was writable recently. Due to
deferred TLB flushing, it's best to assume a writable TLB cache entry
exists. With that assumption, the TLB must be flushed before any IO can
start or the page is freed to avoid lost writes or data corruption. This
patch defers flushing of potentially writable TLBs as long as possible.
