mm: mlock: remove lru_add_drain_all()
lru_add_drain_all() is not required by mlock() and it will drain everything that has been cached at the time mlock is called. And that is not really related to the memory which will be faulted in (and cached) and mlocked by the syscall itself. If anything lru_add_drain_all() should be called _after_ pages have been mlocked and faulted in but even that is not strictly needed because those pages would get to the appropriate LRUs lazily during the reclaim path. Moreover follow_page_pte (gup) will drain the local pcp LRU cache. On larger machines the overhead of lru_add_drain_all() in mlock() can be significant when mlocking data already in memory. We have observed high latency in mlock() due to lru_add_drain_all() when the users were mlocking in memory tmpfs files.

mm, sysctl: make NUMA stats configurable
This is the second step which introduces a tunable interface that allow numa stats configurable for optimizing zone_statistics(), as suggested by Dave Hansen and Ying Huang. ========================================================================= When page allocation performance becomes a bottleneck and you can tolerate some possible tool breakage and decreased numa counter precision, you can do: echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/numa_stat In this case, numa counter update is ignored. We can see about *4.8%*(185->176) drop of cpu cycles per single page allocation and reclaim on Jesper's page_bench01 (single thread) and *8.1%*(343->315) drop of cpu cycles per single page allocation and reclaim on Jesper's page_bench03 (88 threads) running on a 2-Socket Broadwell-based server (88 threads, 126G memory). Benchmark link provided by Jesper D Brouer (increase loop times to 10000000): https://github.com/netoptimizer/prototype-kernel/tree/master/kernel/mm/bench ========================================================================= When page allocation performance is not a bottleneck and you want all tooling to work, you can do: echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/numa_stat This is system default setting. Many thanks to Michal Hocko, Dave Hansen, Ying Huang and Vlastimil Babka for comments to help improve the original patch.

mm, pagevec: rename pagevec drained field
According to Vlastimil Babka, the drained field in pagevec is potentially misleading because it might be interpreted as draining this pagevec instead of the percpu lru pagevecs. Rename the field for clarity.

mm, page_alloc: simplify list handling in rmqueue_bulk()
rmqueue_bulk() fills an empty pcplist with pages from the free list. It
tries to preserve increasing order by pfn to the caller, because it
leads to better performance with some I/O controllers, as explained in

mm: remove __GFP_COLD
As the page free path makes no distinction between cache hot and cold pages, there is no real useful ordering of pages in the free list that allocation requests can take advantage of. Juding from the users of __GFP_COLD, it is likely that a number of them are the result of copying other sites instead of actually measuring the impact. Remove the __GFP_COLD parameter which simplifies a number of paths in the page allocator. This is potentially controversial but bear in mind that the size of the per-cpu pagelists versus modern cache sizes means that the whole per-cpu list can often fit in the L3 cache. Hence, there is only a potential benefit for microbenchmarks that alloc/free pages in a tight loop. It's even worse when THP is taken into account which has little or no chance of getting a cache-hot page as the per-cpu list is bypassed and the zeroing of multiple pages will thrash the cache anyway. The truncate microbenchmarks are not shown as this patch affects the allocation path and not the free path. A page fault microbenchmark was tested but it showed no sigificant difference which is not surprising given that the __GFP_COLD branches are a miniscule percentage of the fault path.

mm: remove cold parameter from free_hot_cold_page*
Most callers users of free_hot_cold_page claim the pages being released are cache hot. The exception is the page reclaim paths where it is likely that enough pages will be freed in the near future that the per-cpu lists are going to be recycled and the cache hotness information is lost. As no one really cares about the hotness of pages being released to the allocator, just ditch the parameter. The APIs are renamed to indicate that it's no longer about hot/cold pages. It should also be less confusing as there are subtle differences between them. __free_pages drops a reference and frees a page when the refcount reaches zero. free_hot_cold_page handled pages whose refcount was already zero which is non-obvious from the name. free_unref_page should be more obvious. No performance impact is expected as the overhead is marginal. The parameter is removed simply because it is a bit stupid to have a useless parameter copied everywhere.

mm: only drain per-cpu pagevecs once per pagevec usage
When a pagevec is initialised on the stack, it is generally used multiple times over a range of pages, looking up entries and then releasing them. On each pagevec_release, the per-cpu deferred LRU pagevecs are drained on the grounds the page being released may be on those queues and the pages may be cache hot. In many cases only the first drain is necessary as it's unlikely that the range of pages being walked is racing against LRU addition. Even if there is such a race, the impact is marginal where as constantly redraining the lru pagevecs costs. This patch ensures that pagevec is only drained once in a given lifecycle without increasing the cache footprint of the pagevec structure. Only sparsetruncate tiny is shown here as large files have many exceptional entries and calls pagecache_release less frequently. sparsetruncate (tiny) 4.14.0-rc4 4.14.0-rc4 batchshadow-v1r1 onedrain-v1r1 Min Time 141.00 ( 0.00%) 141.00 ( 0.00%) 1st-qrtle Time 142.00 ( 0.00%) 142.00 ( 0.00%) 2nd-qrtle Time 142.00 ( 0.00%) 142.00 ( 0.00%) 3rd-qrtle Time 143.00 ( 0.00%) 143.00 ( 0.00%) Max-90% Time 144.00 ( 0.00%) 144.00 ( 0.00%) Max-95% Time 146.00 ( 0.00%) 145.00 ( 0.68%) Max-99% Time 198.00 ( 0.00%) 194.00 ( 2.02%) Max Time 254.00 ( 0.00%) 208.00 ( 18.11%) Amean Time 145.12 ( 0.00%) 144.30 ( 0.56%) Stddev Time 12.74 ( 0.00%) 9.62 ( 24.49%) Coeff Time 8.78 ( 0.00%) 6.67 ( 24.06%) Best99%Amean Time 144.29 ( 0.00%) 143.82 ( 0.32%) Best95%Amean Time 142.68 ( 0.00%) 142.31 ( 0.26%) Best90%Amean Time 142.52 ( 0.00%) 142.19 ( 0.24%) Best75%Amean Time 142.26 ( 0.00%) 141.98 ( 0.20%) Best50%Amean Time 141.90 ( 0.00%) 141.71 ( 0.13%) Best25%Amean Time 141.80 ( 0.00%) 141.43 ( 0.26%) The impact on bonnie is marginal and within the noise because a significant percentage of the file being truncated has been reclaimed and consists of shadow entries which reduce the hotness of the pagevec_release path.

mm, truncate: remove all exceptional entries from pagevec under one lock
During truncate each entry in a pagevec is checked to see if it is an exceptional entry and if so, the shadow entry is cleaned up. This is potentially expensive as multiple entries for a mapping locks/unlocks the tree lock. This batches the operation such that any exceptional entries removed from a pagevec only acquire the mapping tree lock once. The corner case where this is more expensive is where there is only one exceptional entry but this is unlikely due to temporal locality and how it affects LRU ordering. Note that for truncations of small files created recently, this patch should show no gain because it only batches the handling of exceptional entries. sparsetruncate (large) 4.14.0-rc4 4.14.0-rc4 pickhelper-v1r1 batchshadow-v1r1 Min Time 38.00 ( 0.00%) 27.00 ( 28.95%) 1st-qrtle Time 40.00 ( 0.00%) 28.00 ( 30.00%) 2nd-qrtle Time 44.00 ( 0.00%) 41.00 ( 6.82%) 3rd-qrtle Time 146.00 ( 0.00%) 147.00 ( -0.68%) Max-90% Time 153.00 ( 0.00%) 153.00 ( 0.00%) Max-95% Time 155.00 ( 0.00%) 156.00 ( -0.65%) Max-99% Time 181.00 ( 0.00%) 171.00 ( 5.52%) Amean Time 93.04 ( 0.00%) 88.43 ( 4.96%) Best99%Amean Time 92.08 ( 0.00%) 86.13 ( 6.46%) Best95%Amean Time 89.19 ( 0.00%) 83.13 ( 6.80%) Best90%Amean Time 85.60 ( 0.00%) 79.15 ( 7.53%) Best75%Amean Time 72.95 ( 0.00%) 65.09 ( 10.78%) Best50%Amean Time 39.86 ( 0.00%) 28.20 ( 29.25%) Best25%Amean Time 39.44 ( 0.00%) 27.70 ( 29.77%) bonnie 4.14.0-rc4 4.14.0-rc4 pickhelper-v1r1 batchshadow-v1r1 Hmean SeqCreate ops 71.92 ( 0.00%) 76.78 ( 6.76%) Hmean SeqCreate read 42.42 ( 0.00%) 45.01 ( 6.10%) Hmean SeqCreate del 26519.88 ( 0.00%) 27191.87 ( 2.53%) Hmean RandCreate ops 71.92 ( 0.00%) 76.95 ( 7.00%) Hmean RandCreate read 44.44 ( 0.00%) 49.23 ( 10.78%) Hmean RandCreate del 24948.62 ( 0.00%) 24764.97 ( -0.74%) Truncation of a large number of files shows a substantial gain with 99% of files being truncated 6.46% faster. bonnie shows a modest gain of 2.53% [jack@suse.cz: fix truncate_exceptional_pvec_entries()] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171108164226.26788-1-jack@suse.cz Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171018075952.10627-4-mgorman@techsingularity.net Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@intel.com> Cc: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

mm, truncate: do not check mapping for every page being truncated
During truncation, the mapping has already been checked for shmem and dax so it's known that workingset_update_node is required. This patch avoids the checks on mapping for each page being truncated. In all other cases, a lookup helper is used to determine if workingset_update_node() needs to be called. The one danger is that the API is slightly harder to use as calling workingset_update_node directly without checking for dax or shmem mappings could lead to surprises. However, the API rarely needs to be used and hopefully the comment is enough to give people the hint. sparsetruncate (tiny) 4.14.0-rc4 4.14.0-rc4 oneirq-v1r1 pickhelper-v1r1 Min Time 141.00 ( 0.00%) 140.00 ( 0.71%) 1st-qrtle Time 142.00 ( 0.00%) 141.00 ( 0.70%) 2nd-qrtle Time 142.00 ( 0.00%) 142.00 ( 0.00%) 3rd-qrtle Time 143.00 ( 0.00%) 143.00 ( 0.00%) Max-90% Time 144.00 ( 0.00%) 144.00 ( 0.00%) Max-95% Time 147.00 ( 0.00%) 145.00 ( 1.36%) Max-99% Time 195.00 ( 0.00%) 191.00 ( 2.05%) Max Time 230.00 ( 0.00%) 205.00 ( 10.87%) Amean Time 144.37 ( 0.00%) 143.82 ( 0.38%) Stddev Time 10.44 ( 0.00%) 9.00 ( 13.74%) Coeff Time 7.23 ( 0.00%) 6.26 ( 13.41%) Best99%Amean Time 143.72 ( 0.00%) 143.34 ( 0.26%) Best95%Amean Time 142.37 ( 0.00%) 142.00 ( 0.26%) Best90%Amean Time 142.19 ( 0.00%) 141.85 ( 0.24%) Best75%Amean Time 141.92 ( 0.00%) 141.58 ( 0.24%) Best50%Amean Time 141.69 ( 0.00%) 141.31 ( 0.27%) Best25%Amean Time 141.38 ( 0.00%) 140.97 ( 0.29%) As you'd expect, the gain is marginal but it can be detected. The differences in bonnie are all within the noise which is not surprising given the impact on the microbenchmark. radix_tree_update_node_t is a callback for some radix operations that optionally passes in a private field. The only user of the callback is workingset_update_node and as it no longer requires a mapping, the private field is removed.

mm, page_alloc: enable/disable IRQs once when freeing a list of pages
Patch series "Follow-up for speed up page cache truncation", v2. This series is a follow-on for Jan Kara's series "Speed up page cache truncation" series. We both ended up looking at the same problem but saw different problems based on the same data. This series builds upon his work. A variety of workloads were compared on four separate machines but each machine showed gains albeit at different levels. Minimally, some of the differences are due to NUMA where truncating data from a remote node is slower than a local node. The workloads checked were o sparse truncate microbenchmark, tiny o sparse truncate microbenchmark, large o reaim-io disk workfile o dbench4 (modified by mmtests to produce more stable results) o filebench varmail configuration for small memory size o bonnie, directory operations, working set size 2*RAM reaim-io, dbench and filebench all showed minor gains. Truncation does not dominate those workloads but were tested to ensure no other regressions. They will not be reported further. The sparse truncate microbench was written by Jan. It creates a number of files and then times how long it takes to truncate each one. The "tiny" configuraiton creates a number of files that easily fits in memory and times how long it takes to truncate files with page cache. The large configuration uses enough files to have data that is twice the size of memory and so timings there include truncating page cache and working set shadow entries in the radix tree. Patches 1-4 are the most relevant parts of this series. Patches 5-8 are optional as they are deleting code that is essentially useless but has a negligible performance impact. The changelogs have more information on performance but just for bonnie delete options, the main comparison is bonnie 4.14.0-rc5 4.14.0-rc5 4.14.0-rc5 jan-v2 vanilla mel-v2 Hmean SeqCreate ops 76.20 ( 0.00%) 75.80 ( -0.53%) 76.80 ( 0.79%) Hmean SeqCreate read 85.00 ( 0.00%) 85.00 ( 0.00%) 85.00 ( 0.00%) Hmean SeqCreate del 13752.31 ( 0.00%) 12090.23 ( -12.09%) 15304.84 ( 11.29%) Hmean RandCreate ops 76.00 ( 0.00%) 75.60 ( -0.53%) 77.00 ( 1.32%) Hmean RandCreate read 96.80 ( 0.00%) 96.80 ( 0.00%) 97.00 ( 0.21%) Hmean RandCreate del 13233.75 ( 0.00%) 11525.35 ( -12.91%) 14446.61 ( 9.16%) Jan's series is the baseline and the vanilla kernel is 12% slower where as this series on top gains another 11%. This is from a different machine than the data in the changelogs but the detailed data was not collected as there was no substantial change in v2. This patch (of 8): Freeing a list of pages current enables/disables IRQs for each page freed. This patch splits freeing a list of pages into two operations -- preparing the pages for freeing and the actual freeing.

mm: batch radix tree operations when truncating pages
Currently we remove pages from the radix tree one by one. To speed up page cache truncation, lock several pages at once and free them in one go. This allows us to batch radix tree operations in a more efficient way and also save round-trips on mapping->tree_lock. As a result we gain about 20% speed improvement in page cache truncation. Data from a simple benchmark timing 10000 truncates of 1024 pages (on ext4 on ramdisk but the filesystem is barely visible in the profiles). The range shows 1% and 95% percentiles of the measured times: 4.14-rc2 4.14-rc2 + batched truncation 248-256 209-219 249-258 209-217 248-255 211-239 248-255 209-217 247-256 210-218 [jack@suse.cz: convert delete_from_page_cache_batch() to pagevec] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171018111648.13714-1-jack@suse.cz [akpm@linux-foundation.org: move struct pagevec forward declaration to top-of-file] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171010151937.26984-8-jack@suse.cz Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Acked-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@intel.com> Cc: "Kirill A.

Patch series "Speed up page cache truncation", v1.
When rebasing our enterprise distro to a newer kernel (from 4.4 to 4.12)
we have noticed a regression in bonnie++ benchmark when deleting files.
Eventually we have tracked this down to a fact that page cache
truncation got slower by about 10%. There were both gains and losses in
the above interval of kernels but we have been able to identify that

mm/page_alloc: make sure __rmqueue() etc are always inline
__rmqueue(), __rmqueue_fallback(), __rmqueue_smallest() and __rmqueue_cma_fallback() are all in page allocator's hot path and better be finished as soon as possible. One way to make them faster is by making them inline. But as Andrew Morton and Andi Kleen pointed out: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/10/10/1252 https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/10/10/1279 To make sure they are inlined, we should use __always_inline for them. With the will-it-scale/page_fault1/process benchmark, when using nr_cpu processes to stress buddy, the results for will-it-scale.processes with and without the patch are: On a 2-sockets Intel-Skylake machine: compiler base head gcc-4.4.7 6496131 6911823 +6.4% gcc-4.9.4 7225110 7731072 +7.0% gcc-5.4.1 7054224 7688146 +9.0% gcc-6.2.0 7059794 7651675 +8.4% On a 4-sockets Intel-Skylake machine: compiler base head gcc-4.4.7 13162890 13508193 +2.6% gcc-4.9.4 14997463 15484353 +3.2% gcc-5.4.1 14708711 15449805 +5.0% gcc-6.2.0 14574099 15349204 +5.3% The above 4 compilers are used because I've done the tests through Intel's Linux Kernel Performance(LKP) infrastructure and they are the available compilers there. The benefit being less on 4 sockets machine is due to the lock contention there(perf-profile/native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath=81%) is less severe than on the 2 sockets machine(85%). What the benchmark does is: it forks nr_cpu processes and then each process does the following: 1 mmap() 128M anonymous space; 2 writes to each page there to trigger actual page allocation; 3 munmap() it. in a loop. https://github.com/antonblanchard/will-it-scale/blob/master/tests/page_fault1.c Binary size wise, I have locally built them with different compilers: [aaron@aaronlu obj]$ size */*/mm/page_alloc.o text data bss dec hex filename 37409 9904 8524 55837 da1d gcc-4.9.4/base/mm/page_alloc.o 38273 9904 8524 56701 dd7d gcc-4.9.4/head/mm/page_alloc.o 37465 9840 8428 55733 d9b5 gcc-5.5.0/base/mm/page_alloc.o 38169 9840 8428 56437 dc75 gcc-5.5.0/head/mm/page_alloc.o 37573 9840 8428 55841 da21 gcc-6.4.0/base/mm/page_alloc.o 38261 9840 8428 56529 dcd1 gcc-6.4.0/head/mm/page_alloc.o 36863 9840 8428 55131 d75b gcc-7.2.0/base/mm/page_alloc.o 37711 9840 8428 55979 daab gcc-7.2.0/head/mm/page_alloc.o Text size increased about 800 bytes for mm/page_alloc.o.

mm: stop zeroing memory during allocation in vmemmap
vmemmap_alloc_block() will no longer zero the block, so zero memory at its call sites for everything except struct pages. Struct page memory is zero'd by struct page initialization. Replace allocators in sparse-vmemmap to use the non-zeroing version. So, we will get the performance improvement by zeroing the memory in parallel when struct pages are zeroed. Add struct page zeroing as a part of initialization of other fields in __init_single_page().

mm: zero reserved and unavailable struct pages
Some memory is reserved but unavailable: not present in memblock.memory (because not backed by physical pages), but present in memblock.reserved. Such memory has backing struct pages, but they are not initialized by going through __init_single_page(). In some cases these struct pages are accessed even if they do not contain any data. One example is page_to_pfn() might access page->flags if this is where section information is stored (CONFIG_SPARSEMEM, SECTION_IN_PAGE_FLAGS). One example of such memory: trim_low_memory_range() unconditionally reserves from pfn 0, but e820__memblock_setup() might provide the exiting memory from pfn 1 (i.e. KVM). Since struct pages are zeroed in __init_single_page(), and not during allocation time, we must zero such struct pages explicitly. The patch involves adding a new memblock iterator: for_each_resv_unavail_range(i, p_start, p_end) Which iterates through reserved && !memory lists, and we zero struct pages explicitly by calling mm_zero_struct_page(). === Here is more detailed example of problem that this patch is addressing: Run tested on qemu with the following arguments: -enable-kvm -cpu kvm64 -m 512 -smp 2 This patch reports that there are 98 unavailable pages. They are: pfn 0 and pfns in range [159, 255]. Note, trim_low_memory_range() reserves only pfns in range [0, 15], it does not reserve [159, 255] ones. e820__memblock_setup() reports linux that the following physical ranges are available: [1 , 158] [256, 130783] Notice, that exactly unavailable pfns are missing! Now, lets check what we have in zone 0: [1, 131039] pfn 0, is not part of the zone, but pfns [1, 158], are. However, the bigger problem we have if we do not initialize these struct pages is with memory hotplug. Because, that path operates at 2M boundaries (section_nr). And checks if 2M range of pages is hot removable. It starts with first pfn from zone, rounds it down to 2M boundary (sturct pages are allocated at 2M boundaries when vmemmap is created), and checks if that section is hot removable. In this case start with pfn 1 and convert it down to pfn 0. Later pfn is converted to struct page, and some fields are checked. Now, if we do not zero struct pages, we get unpredictable results. In fact when CONFIG_VM_DEBUG is enabled, and we explicitly set all vmemmap memory to ones, the following panic is observed with kernel test without this patch applied: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: is_pageblock_removable_nolock+0x35/0x90 PGD 0 P4D 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT ... task: ffff88001f4e2900 task.stack: ffffc90000314000 RIP: 0010:is_pageblock_removable_nolock+0x35/0x90 Call Trace: ? is_mem_section_removable+0x5a/0xd0 show_mem_removable+0x6b/0xa0 dev_attr_show+0x1b/0x50 sysfs_kf_seq_show+0xa1/0x100 kernfs_seq_show+0x22/0x30 seq_read+0x1ac/0x3a0 kernfs_fop_read+0x36/0x190 ? security_file_permission+0x90/0xb0 __vfs_read+0x16/0x30 vfs_read+0x81/0x130 SyS_read+0x44/0xa0 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x1f/0xbd Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171013173214.27300-7-pasha.tatashin@oracle.com Signed-off-by: Pavel Tatashin <pasha.tatashin@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Steven Sistare <steven.sistare@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Daniel Jordan <daniel.m.jordan@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Bob Picco <bob.picco@oracle.com> Tested-by: Bob Picco <bob.picco@oracle.com> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Alexander Potapenko <glider@google.com> Cc: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@virtuozzo.com> Cc: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Cc: David S.

* A new variant of memblock_virt_alloc_* allocations: memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_raw() - Does not zero the allocated memory - Does not panic if request cannot be satisfied * optimize early system hash allocations Clients can call alloc_large_system_hash() with flag: HASH_ZERO to specify that memory that was allocated for system hash needs to be zeroed, otherwise the memory does not need to be zeroed, and client will initialize it. If memory does not need to be zero'd, call the new memblock_virt_alloc_raw() interface, and thus improve the boot performance. * debug for raw alloctor When CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled, this patch sets all the memory that is returned by memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_raw() to ones to ensure that no places excpect zeroed memory.

mm: deferred_init_memmap improvements
Patch series "complete deferred page initialization", v12. SMP machines can benefit from the DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT config option, which defers initializing struct pages until all cpus have been started so it can be done in parallel. However, this feature is sub-optimal, because the deferred page initialization code expects that the struct pages have already been zeroed, and the zeroing is done early in boot with a single thread only. Also, we access that memory and set flags before struct pages are initialized. All of this is fixed in this patchset. In this work we do the following: - Never read access struct page until it was initialized - Never set any fields in struct pages before they are initialized - Zero struct page at the beginning of struct page initialization ========================================================================== Performance improvements on x86 machine with 8 nodes: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E7-8895 v3 @ 2.60GHz and 1T of memory: TIME SPEED UP base no deferred: 95.796233s fix no deferred: 79.978956s 19.77% base deferred: 77.254713s fix deferred: 55.050509s 40.34% ========================================================================== SPARC M6 3600 MHz with 15T of memory TIME SPEED UP base no deferred: 358.335727s fix no deferred: 302.320936s 18.52% base deferred: 237.534603s fix deferred: 182.103003s 30.44% ========================================================================== Raw dmesg output with timestamps: x86 base no deferred: https://hastebin.com/ofunepurit.scala x86 base deferred: https://hastebin.com/ifazegeyas.scala x86 fix no deferred: https://hastebin.com/pegocohevo.scala x86 fix deferred: https://hastebin.com/ofupevikuk.scala sparc base no deferred: https://hastebin.com/ibobeteken.go sparc base deferred: https://hastebin.com/fariqimiyu.go sparc fix no deferred: https://hastebin.com/muhegoheyi.go sparc fix deferred: https://hastebin.com/xadinobutu.go This patch (of 11): deferred_init_memmap() is called when struct pages are initialized later in boot by slave CPUs. This patch simplifies and optimizes this function, and also fixes a couple issues (described below). The main change is that now we are iterating through free memblock areas instead of all configured memory. Thus, we do not have to check if the struct page has already been initialized. ===== In deferred_init_memmap() where all deferred struct pages are initialized we have a check like this: if (page->flags) { VM_BUG_ON(page_zone(page) != zone); goto free_range; } This way we are checking if the current deferred page has already been initialized. It works, because memory for struct pages has been zeroed, and the only way flags are not zero if it went through __init_single_page() before. But, once we change the current behavior and won't zero the memory in memblock allocator, we cannot trust anything inside "struct page"es until they are initialized. This patch fixes this. The deferred_init_memmap() is re-written to loop through only free memory ranges provided by memblock. Note, this first issue is relevant only when the following change is merged: ===== This patch fixes another existing issue on systems that have holes in zones i.e CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE is defined. In for_each_mem_pfn_range() we have code like this: if (!pfn_valid_within(pfn) goto free_range; Note: 'page' is not set to NULL and is not incremented but 'pfn' advances. Thus means if deferred struct pages are enabled on systems with these kind of holes, linux would get memory corruptions. I have fixed this issue by defining a new macro that performs all the necessary operations when we free the current set of pages.

kmemcheck: remove annotations
Patch series "kmemcheck: kill kmemcheck", v2. As discussed at LSF/MM, kill kmemcheck. KASan is a replacement that is able to work without the limitation of kmemcheck (single CPU, slow). KASan is already upstream. We are also not aware of any users of kmemcheck (or users who don't consider KASan as a suitable replacement). The only objection was that since KASAN wasn't supported by all GCC versions provided by distros at that time we should hold off for 2 years, and try again. Now that 2 years have passed, and all distros provide gcc that supports KASAN, kill kmemcheck again for the very same reasons. This patch (of 4): Remove kmemcheck annotations, and calls to kmemcheck from the kernel.

mm: consolidate page table accounting
Currently, we account page tables separately for each page table level, but that's redundant -- we only make use of total memory allocated to page tables for oom_badness calculation. We also provide the information to userspace, but it has dubious value there too. This patch switches page table accounting to single counter. mm->pgtables_bytes is now used to account all page table levels. We use bytes, because page table size for different levels of page table tree may be different. The change has user-visible effect: we don't have VmPMD and VmPUD reported in /proc/[pid]/status. Not sure if anybody uses them. (As alternative, we can always report 0 kB for them.) OOM-killer report is also slightly changed: we now report pgtables_bytes instead of nr_ptes, nr_pmd, nr_puds. Apart from reducing number of counters per-mm, the benefit is that we now calculate oom_badness() more correctly for machines which have different size of page tables depending on level or where page tables are less than a page in size. The only downside can be debuggability because we do not know which page table level could leak. But I do not remember many bugs that would be caught by separate counters so I wouldn't lose sleep over this.

mm/swap_slots.c: fix race conditions in swap_slots cache init
Memory allocations can happen before the swap_slots cache initialization is completed during cpu bring up. If we are low on memory, we could call get_swap_page() and access swap_slots_cache before it is fully initialized. Add a check in get_swap_page() for initialized swap_slots_cache to prevent this condition. Similar check already exists in free_swap_slot. Also annotate the checks to indicate the likely condition. We also added a memory barrier to make sure that the locks initialization are done before the assignment of cache->slots and cache->slots_ret pointers. This ensures the assumption that it is safe to acquire the slots cache locks and use the slots cache when the corresponding cache->slots or cache->slots_ret pointers are non null.

mm/mmu_notifier: avoid double notification when it is useless
This patch only affects users of mmu_notifier->invalidate_range callback which are device drivers related to ATS/PASID, CAPI, IOMMUv2, SVM ... and it is an optimization for those users. Everyone else is unaffected by it. When clearing a pte/pmd we are given a choice to notify the event under the page table lock (notify version of *_clear_flush helpers do call the mmu_notifier_invalidate_range). But that notification is not necessary in all cases. This patch removes almost all cases where it is useless to have a call to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range before mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end. It also adds documentation in all those cases explaining why. Below is a more in depth analysis of why this is fine to do this: For secondary TLB (non CPU TLB) like IOMMU TLB or device TLB (when device use thing like ATS/PASID to get the IOMMU to walk the CPU page table to access a process virtual address space). There is only 2 cases when you need to notify those secondary TLB while holding page table lock when clearing a pte/pmd: A) page backing address is free before mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end B) a page table entry is updated to point to a new page (COW, write fault on zero page, __replace_page(), ...) Case A is obvious you do not want to take the risk for the device to write to a page that might now be used by something completely different. Case B is more subtle. For correctness it requires the following sequence to happen: - take page table lock - clear page table entry and notify (pmd/pte_huge_clear_flush_notify()) - set page table entry to point to new page If clearing the page table entry is not followed by a notify before setting the new pte/pmd value then you can break memory model like C11 or C++11 for the device. Consider the following scenario (device use a feature similar to ATS/ PASID): Two address addrA and addrB such that |addrA - addrB| >= PAGE_SIZE we assume they are write protected for COW (other case of B apply too). [Time N] ----------------------------------------------------------------- CPU-thread-0 {try to write to addrA} CPU-thread-1 {try to write to addrB} CPU-thread-2 {} CPU-thread-3 {} DEV-thread-0 {read addrA and populate device TLB} DEV-thread-2 {read addrB and populate device TLB} [Time N+1] --------------------------------------------------------------- CPU-thread-0 {COW_step0: {mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start(addrA)}} CPU-thread-1 {COW_step0: {mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start(addrB)}} CPU-thread-2 {} CPU-thread-3 {} DEV-thread-0 {} DEV-thread-2 {} [Time N+2] --------------------------------------------------------------- CPU-thread-0 {COW_step1: {update page table point to new page for addrA}} CPU-thread-1 {COW_step1: {update page table point to new page for addrB}} CPU-thread-2 {} CPU-thread-3 {} DEV-thread-0 {} DEV-thread-2 {} [Time N+3] --------------------------------------------------------------- CPU-thread-0 {preempted} CPU-thread-1 {preempted} CPU-thread-2 {write to addrA which is a write to new page} CPU-thread-3 {} DEV-thread-0 {} DEV-thread-2 {} [Time N+3] --------------------------------------------------------------- CPU-thread-0 {preempted} CPU-thread-1 {preempted} CPU-thread-2 {} CPU-thread-3 {write to addrB which is a write to new page} DEV-thread-0 {} DEV-thread-2 {} [Time N+4] --------------------------------------------------------------- CPU-thread-0 {preempted} CPU-thread-1 {COW_step3: {mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end(addrB)}} CPU-thread-2 {} CPU-thread-3 {} DEV-thread-0 {} DEV-thread-2 {} [Time N+5] --------------------------------------------------------------- CPU-thread-0 {preempted} CPU-thread-1 {} CPU-thread-2 {} CPU-thread-3 {} DEV-thread-0 {read addrA from old page} DEV-thread-2 {read addrB from new page} So here because at time N+2 the clear page table entry was not pair with a notification to invalidate the secondary TLB, the device see the new value for addrB before seing the new value for addrA. This break total memory ordering for the device. When changing a pte to write protect or to point to a new write protected page with same content (KSM) it is ok to delay invalidate_range callback to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end() outside the page table lock. This is true even if the thread doing page table update is preempted right after releasing page table lock before calling mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end Thanks to Andrea for thinking of a problematic scenario for COW.

zsmalloc: calling zs_map_object() from irq is a bug
Use BUG_ON(in_interrupt()) in zs_map_object(). This is not a new BUG_ON(), it's always been there, but was recently changed to VM_BUG_ON(). There are several problems there. First, we use use per-CPU mappings both in zsmalloc and in zram, and interrupt may easily corrupt those buffers. Second, and more importantly, we believe it's possible to start leaking sensitive information. Consider the following case: -> process P swap out zram per-cpu mapping CPU1 compress page A -> IRQ swap out zram per-cpu mapping CPU1 compress page B write page from per-cpu mapping CPU1 to zsmalloc pool iret -> process P write page from per-cpu mapping CPU1 to zsmalloc pool [*] return * so we store overwritten data that actually belongs to another page (task) and potentially contains sensitive data. And when process P will page fault it's going to read (swap in) that other task's data.

mm, memory_hotplug: remove timeout from __offline_memory
We have a hardcoded 120s timeout after which the memory offline fails basically since the hot remove has been introduced. This is essentially a policy implemented in the kernel. Moreover there is no way to adjust the timeout and so we are sometimes facing memory offline failures if the system is under a heavy memory pressure or very intensive CPU workload on large machines. It is not very clear what purpose the timeout actually serves. The offline operation is interruptible by a signal so if userspace wants some timeout based termination this can be done trivially by sending a signal. If there is a strong usecase to do this from the kernel then we should do it properly and have a it tunable from the userspace with the timeout disabled by default along with the explanation who uses it and for what purporse.

mm, memory_hotplug: do not fail offlining too early
Patch series "mm, memory_hotplug: redefine memory offline retry logic", v2. While testing memory hotplug on a large 4TB machine we have noticed that memory offlining is just too eager to fail. The primary reason is that the retry logic is just too easy to give up. We have 4 ways out of the offline - we have a permanent failure (isolation or memory notifiers fail, or hugetlb pages cannot be dropped) - userspace sends a signal - a hardcoded 120s timeout expires - page migration fails 5 times This is way too convoluted and it doesn't scale very well. We have seen both temporary migration failures as well as 120s being triggered. After removing those restrictions we were able to pass stress testing during memory hot remove without any other negative side effects observed. Therefore I suggest dropping both hard coded policies. I couldn't have found any specific reason for them in the changelog. I neither didn't get any response [1] from Kamezawa. If we need some upper bound - e.g. timeout based - then we should have a proper and user defined policy for that. In any case there should be a clear use case when introducing it. This patch (of 2): Memory offlining can fail too eagerly under heavy memory pressure. page:ffffea22a646bd00 count:255 mapcount:252 mapping:ffff88ff926c9f38 index:0x3 flags: 0x9855fe40010048(uptodate|active|mappedtodisk) page dumped because: isolation failed page->mem_cgroup:ffff8801cd662000 memory offlining [mem 0x18b580000000-0x18b5ffffffff] failed Isolation has failed here because the page is not on LRU. Most probably because it was on the pcp LRU cache or it has been removed from the LRU already but it hasn't been freed yet. In both cases the page doesn't look non-migrable so retrying more makes sense. __offline_pages seems rather cluttered when it comes to the retry logic. We have 5 retries at maximum and a timeout. We could argue whether the timeout makes sense but failing just because of a race when somebody isoltes a page from LRU or puts it on a pcp LRU lists is just wrong. It only takes it to race with a process which unmaps some pages and remove them from the LRU list and we can fail the whole offline because of something that is a temporary condition and actually not harmful for the offline. Please note that unmovable pages should be already excluded during start_isolate_page_range. We could argue that has_unmovable_pages is racy and MIGRATE_MOVABLE check doesn't provide any hard guarantee either but kernel zones (aka < ZONE_MOVABLE) will very likely detect unmovable pages in most cases and movable zone shouldn't contain unmovable pages at all. Some of those pages might be pinned but not for ever because that would be a bug on its own. In any case the context is still interruptible and so the userspace can easily bail out when the operation takes too long. This is certainly better behavior than a hardcoded retry loop which is racy. Fix this by removing the max retry count and only rely on the timeout resp. interruption by a signal from the userspace. Also retry rather than fail when check_pages_isolated sees some !free pages because those could be a result of the race as well.

mm, page_alloc: fail has_unmovable_pages when seeing reserved pages
Reserved pages should be completely ignored by the core mm because they have a special meaning for their owners. has_unmovable_pages doesn't check those so we rely on other tests (reference count, or PageLRU) to fail on such pages. Althought this happens to work it is safer to simply check for those explicitly and do not rely on the owner of the page to abuse those fields for special purposes. Please note that this is more of a further fortification of the code rahter than a fix of an existing issue.

mm: distinguish CMA and MOVABLE isolation in has_unmovable_pages()
Joonsoo has noticed that "mm: drop migrate type checks from has_unmovable_pages" would break CMA allocator because it relies on has_unmovable_pages returning false even for CMA pageblocks which in fact don't have to be movable: alloc_contig_range start_isolate_page_range set_migratetype_isolate has_unmovable_pages This is a result of the code sharing between CMA and memory hotplug while each one has a different idea of what has_unmovable_pages should return. This is unfortunate but fixing it properly would require a lot of code duplication. Fix the issue by introducing the requested migrate type argument and special case MIGRATE_CMA case where CMA page blocks are handled properly. This will work for memory hotplug because it requires MIGRATE_MOVABLE.

mm: drop migrate type checks from has_unmovable_pages
Michael has noticed that the memory offline tries to migrate kernel code pages when doing echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory0/online The current implementation will fail the operation after several failed page migration attempts but we shouldn't even attempt to migrate that memory and fail right away because this memory is clearly not migrateable. This will become a real problem when we drop the retry loop counter resp. timeout. The real problem is in has_unmovable_pages in fact. We should fail if there are any non migrateable pages in the area. In orther to guarantee that remove the migrate type checks because MIGRATE_MOVABLE is not guaranteed to contain only migrateable pages. It is merely a heuristic. Similarly MIGRATE_CMA does guarantee that the page allocator doesn't allocate any non-migrateable pages from the block but CMA allocations themselves are unlikely to migrateable. Therefore remove both checks.

mm, swap: fix false error message in __swp_swapcount()
When a page fault occurs for a swap entry, the physical swap readahead
(not the VMA base swap readahead) may readahead several swap entries
after the fault swap entry. The readahead algorithm calculates some of
the swap entries to readahead via increasing the offset of the fault
swap entry without checking whether they are beyond the end of the swap
device and it relys on the __swp_swapcount() and swapcache_prepare() to
check it. Although __swp_swapcount() checks for the swap entry passed
in, it will complain with the error message as follow for the expected
invalid swap entry. This may make the end users confused.
swap_info_get: Bad swap offset entry 0200f8a7
To fix the false error message, the swap entry checking is added in
swapin_readahead() to avoid to pass the out-of-bound swap entries and
the swap entry reserved for the swap header to __swp_swapcount() and
swapcache_prepare().

mm, swap: skip swapcache for swapin of synchronous device
With fast swap storage, the platforms want to use swap more aggressively and swap-in is crucial to application latency. The rw_page() based synchronous devices like zram, pmem and btt are such fast storage. When I profile swapin performance with zram lz4 decompress test, S/W overhead is more than 70%. Maybe, it would be bigger in nvdimm. This patch aims to reduce swap-in latency by skipping swapcache if the swap device is synchronous device like rw_page based device. It enhances 45% my swapin test(5G sequential swapin, no readahead, from 2.41sec to 1.64sec).

slub: fix sysfs duplicate filename creation when slub_debug=O
When slub_debug=O is set. It is possible to clear debug flags for an "unmergeable" slab cache in kmem_cache_open(). It makes the "unmergeable" cache became "mergeable" in sysfs_slab_add(). These caches will generate their "unique IDs" by create_unique_id(), but it is possible to create identical unique IDs. In my experiment, sgpool-128, names_cache, biovec-256 generate the same ID ":Ft-0004096" and the kernel reports "sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/kernel/slab/:Ft-0004096'". To repeat my experiment, set disable_higher_order_debug=1, CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON=y in kernel-4.14.

mm: oom: show unreclaimable slab info when unreclaimable slabs > user memory
The kernel may panic when an oom happens without killable process sometimes it is caused by huge unreclaimable slabs used by kernel. Although kdump could help debug such problem, however, kdump is not available on all architectures and it might be malfunction sometime. And, since kernel already panic it is worthy capturing such information in dmesg to aid touble shooting. Print out unreclaimable slab info (used size and total size) which actual memory usage is not zero (num_objs * size != 0) when unreclaimable slabs amount is greater than total user memory (LRU pages).

mm/pagewalk.c: report holes in hugetlb ranges
This matters at least for the mincore syscall, which will otherwise copy
uninitialized memory from the page allocator to userspace. It is
probably also a correctness error for /proc/$pid/pagemap, but I haven't
tested that.
Removing the `walk->hugetlb_entry` condition in walk_hugetlb_range() has
no effect because the caller already checks for that.
This only reports holes in hugetlb ranges to callers who have specified
a hugetlb_entry callback.
This issue was found using an AFL-based fuzzer.

virtio_balloon: fix deadlock on OOM
fill_balloon doing memory allocations under balloon_lock can cause a deadlock when leak_balloon is called from virtballoon_oom_notify and tries to take same lock. To fix, split page allocation and enqueue and do allocations outside the lock. Here's a detailed analysis of the deadlock by Tetsuo Handa: In leak_balloon(), mutex_lock(&vb->balloon_lock) is called in order to serialize against fill_balloon(). But in fill_balloon(), alloc_page(GFP_HIGHUSER[_MOVABLE] | __GFP_NOMEMALLOC | __GFP_NORETRY) is called with vb->balloon_lock mutex held. Since GFP_HIGHUSER[_MOVABLE] implies __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM | __GFP_IO | __GFP_FS, despite __GFP_NORETRY is specified, this allocation attempt might indirectly depend on somebody else's __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM memory allocation. And such indirect __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM memory allocation might call leak_balloon() via virtballoon_oom_notify() via blocking_notifier_call_chain() callback via out_of_memory() when it reached __alloc_pages_may_oom() and held oom_lock mutex. Since vb->balloon_lock mutex is already held by fill_balloon(), it will cause OOM lockup. Thread1 Thread2 fill_balloon() takes a balloon_lock balloon_page_enqueue() alloc_page(GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE) direct reclaim (__GFP_FS context) takes a fs lock waits for that fs lock alloc_page(GFP_NOFS) __alloc_pages_may_oom() takes the oom_lock out_of_memory() blocking_notifier_call_chain() leak_balloon() tries to take that balloon_lock and deadlocks Reported-by: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Wei Wang <wei.w.wang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S.

mm, swap: fix race between swap count continuation operations
One page may store a set of entries of the sis->swap_map
(swap_info_struct->swap_map) in multiple swap clusters.
If some of the entries has sis->swap_map[offset] > SWAP_MAP_MAX,
multiple pages will be used to store the set of entries of the
sis->swap_map. And the pages are linked with page->lru. This is called
swap count continuation. To access the pages which store the set of
entries of the sis->swap_map simultaneously, previously, sis->lock is
used. But to improve the scalability of __swap_duplicate(), swap
cluster lock may be used in swap_count_continued() now. This may race
with add_swap_count_continuation() which operates on a nearby swap
cluster, in which the sis->swap_map entries are stored in the same page.
The race can cause wrong swap count in practice, thus cause unfreeable
swap entries or software lockup, etc.
To fix the race, a new spin lock called cont_lock is added to struct
swap_info_struct to protect the swap count continuation page list. This
is a lock at the swap device level, so the scalability isn't very well.
But it is still much better than the original sis->lock, because it is
only acquired/released when swap count continuation is used. Which is
considered rare in practice. If it turns out that the scalability
becomes an issue for some workloads, we can split the lock into some
more fine grained locks.

mm: introduce MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE, a mechanism to safely define new mmap flags
The mmap(2) syscall suffers from the ABI anti-pattern of not validating unknown flags. However, proposals like MAP_SYNC need a mechanism to define new behavior that is known to fail on older kernels without the support. Define a new MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE flag pattern that is guaranteed to fail on all legacy mmap implementations. It is worth noting that the original proposal was for a standalone MAP_VALIDATE flag. However, when that could not be supported by all archs Linus observed: I see why you *think* you want a bitmap. You think you want a bitmap because you want to make MAP_VALIDATE be part of MAP_SYNC etc, so that people can do ret = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED | MAP_SYNC, fd, 0); and "know" that MAP_SYNC actually takes. And I'm saying that whole wish is bogus. You're fundamentally depending on special semantics, just make it explicit. It's already not portable, so don't try to make it so. Rename that MAP_VALIDATE as MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE, make it have a value of 0x3, and make people do ret = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE | MAP_SYNC, fd, 0); and then the kernel side is easier too (none of that random garbage playing games with looking at the "MAP_VALIDATE bit", but just another case statement in that map type thing. Boom. Done. Similar to ->fallocate() we also want the ability to validate the support for new flags on a per ->mmap() 'struct file_operations' instance basis. Towards that end arrange for flags to be generically validated against a mmap_supported_flags exported by 'struct file_operations'. By default all existing flags are implicitly supported, but new flags require MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE and per-instance-opt-in.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

locking/atomics: COCCINELLE/treewide: Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() patterns to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE()
Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the coccinelle script shown below and apply its output. For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in churn. However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following coccinelle script: ---- // Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and // WRITE_ONCE() // $ make coccicheck COCCI=/home/mark/once.cocci SPFLAGS="--include-headers" MODE=patch virtual patch @ depends on patch @ expression E1, E2; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E1) = E2 + WRITE_ONCE(E1, E2) @ depends on patch @ expression E; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E) + READ_ONCE(E) ---- Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

locking/atomics, mm: Convert ACCESS_ONCE() to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE()
For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't currently harmful. However, for some features it is necessary to instrument reads and writes separately, which is not possible with ACCESS_ONCE(). This distinction is critical to correct operation. It's possible to transform the bulk of kernel code using the Coccinelle script below. However, this doesn't handle comments, leaving references to ACCESS_ONCE() instances which have been removed. As a preparatory step, this patch converts the mm code and comments to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() consistently. ---- virtual patch @ depends on patch @ expression E1, E2; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E1) = E2 + WRITE_ONCE(E1, E2) @ depends on patch @ expression E; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E) + READ_ONCE(E) ---- Signed-off-by: Paul E.

mm/sparsemem: Allocate mem_section at runtime for CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME=y
Size of the mem_section[] array depends on the size of the physical address space. In preparation for boot-time switching between paging modes on x86-64 we need to make the allocation of mem_section[] dynamic, because otherwise we waste a lot of RAM: with CONFIG_NODE_SHIFT=10, mem_section[] size is 32kB for 4-level paging and 2MB for 5-level paging mode.

mm, percpu: add support for __GFP_NOWARN flag
Add an option for pcpu_alloc() to support __GFP_NOWARN flag. Currently, we always throw a warning when size or alignment is unsupported (and also dump stack on failed allocation requests). The warning itself is harmless since we return NULL anyway for any failed request, which callers are required to handle anyway. However, it becomes harmful when panic_on_warn is set. The rationale for the WARN() in pcpu_alloc() is that it can be tracked when larger than supported allocation requests are made such that allocations limits can be tweaked if warranted. This makes sense for in-kernel users, however, there are users of pcpu allocator where allocation size is derived from user space requests, e.g. when creating BPF maps. In these cases, the requests should fail gracefully without throwing a splat. The current work-around was to check allocation size against the upper limit of PCPU_MIN_UNIT_SIZE from call-sites for bailing out prior to a call to pcpu_alloc() in order to avoid throwing the WARN(). This is bad in multiple ways since PCPU_MIN_UNIT_SIZE is an implementation detail, and having the checks on call-sites only complicates the code for no good reason. Thus, lets fix it generically by supporting the __GFP_NOWARN flag that users can then use with calling the __alloc_percpu_gfp() helper instead.

mm, swap: use page-cluster as max window of VMA based swap readahead
When the VMA based swap readahead was introduced, a new knob
/sys/kernel/mm/swap/vma_ra_max_order
was added as the max window of VMA swap readahead. This is to make it
possible to use different max window for VMA based readahead and
original physical readahead. But Minchan Kim pointed out that this will
cause a regression because setting page-cluster sysctl to zero cannot
disable swap readahead with the change.
To fix the regression, the page-cluster sysctl is used as the max window
of both the VMA based swap readahead and original physical swap
readahead. If more fine grained control is needed in the future, more
knobs can be added as the subordinate knobs of the page-cluster sysctl.
The vma_ra_max_order knob is deleted. Because the knob was introduced
in v4.14-rc1, and this patch is targeting being merged before v4.14
releasing, there should be no existing users of this newly added ABI.

mm: page_vma_mapped: ensure pmd is loaded with READ_ONCE outside of lock
Loading the pmd without holding the pmd_lock exposes us to races with
concurrent updaters of the page tables but, worse still, it also allows
the compiler to cache the pmd value in a register and reuse it later on,
even if we've performed a READ_ONCE in between and seen a more recent
value.
In the case of page_vma_mapped_walk, this leads to the following crash
when the pmd loaded for the initial pmd_trans_huge check is all zeroes
and a subsequent valid table entry is loaded by check_pmd. We then
proceed into map_pte, but the compiler re-uses the zero entry inside
pte_offset_map, resulting in a junk pointer being installed in
pvmw->pte:
PC is at check_pte+0x20/0x170
LR is at page_vma_mapped_walk+0x2e0/0x540

This patch fixes the problem by ensuring that READ_ONCE is used before
the initial checks on the pmd, and this value is subsequently used when
checking whether or not the pmd is present. pmd_check is removed and
the pmd_present check is inlined directly.

cma_alloc() unconditionally prints an INFO message when the CMA allocation fails. Make this message conditional on the non-presence of __GFP_NOWARN in gfp_mask. This patch aims at removing INFO messages that are displayed when the VC4 driver tries to allocate buffer objects. From the driver perspective an allocation failure is acceptable, and the driver can possibly do something to make following allocation succeed (like flushing the VC4 internal cache).

writeback: schedule periodic writeback with sysctl
After disable periodic writeback by writing 0 to dirty_writeback_centisecs, the handler wb_workfn() will not be entered again until the dirty background limit reaches or sync syscall is executed or no enough free memory available or vmscan is triggered. So the periodic writeback can't be enabled by writing a non-zero value to dirty_writeback_centisecs. As it can be disabled by sysctl, it should be able to enable by sysctl as well.

mm/shmem: introduce shmem_file_setup_with_mnt
We are planning to use our own tmpfs mnt in i915 in place of the shm_mnt, such that we can control the mount options, in particular huge=, which we require to support huge-gtt-pages. So rather than roll our own version of __shmem_file_setup, it would be preferred if we could just give shmem our mnt, and let it do the rest.

mm/memory_hotplug: define find_{smallest|biggest}_section_pfn as unsigned long
find_{smallest|biggest}_section_pfn()s find the smallest/biggest section
and return the pfn of the section. But the functions are defined as int.
So the functions always return 0x00000000 - 0xffffffff. It means if
memory address is over 16TB, the functions does not work correctly.
To handle 64 bit value, the patch defines
find_{smallest|biggest}_section_pfn() as unsigned long.

mm/memory_hotplug: change pfn_to_section_nr/section_nr_to_pfn macro to inline function
pfn_to_section_nr() and section_nr_to_pfn() are defined as macro.
pfn_to_section_nr() has no issue even if it is defined as macro. But
section_nr_to_pfn() has overflow issue if sec is defined as int.
section_nr_to_pfn() just shifts sec by PFN_SECTION_SHIFT. If sec is
defined as unsigned long, section_nr_to_pfn() returns pfn as 64 bit value.
But if sec is defined as int, section_nr_to_pfn() returns pfn as 32 bit
value.
__remove_section() calculates start_pfn using section_nr_to_pfn() and
scn_nr defined as int. So if hot-removed memory address is over 16TB,
overflow issue occurs and section_nr_to_pfn() does not calculate correct
pfn.
To make callers use proper arg, the patch changes the macros to inline
functions.

mm, memory_hotplug: add scheduling point to __add_pages
Patch series "mm, memory_hotplug: fix few soft lockups in memory hotadd". Johannes has noticed few soft lockups when adding a large nvdimm device. All of them were caused by a long loop without any explicit cond_resched which is a problem for !PREEMPT kernels. The fix is quite straightforward. Just make sure that cond_resched gets called from time to time. This patch (of 3): __add_pages gets a pfn range to add and there is no upper bound for a single call. This is usually a memory block aligned size for the regular memory hotplug - smaller sizes are usual for memory balloning drivers, or the whole NUMA node for physical memory online. There is no explicit scheduling point in that code path though. This can lead to long latencies while __add_pages is executed and we have even seen a soft lockup report during nvdimm initialization with !PREEMPT kernel NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#11 stuck for 23s!

mm: memcontrol: use vmalloc fallback for large kmem memcg arrays
For quick per-memcg indexing, slab caches and list_lru structures maintain linear arrays of descriptors. As the number of concurrent memory cgroups in the system goes up, this requires large contiguous allocations (8k cgroups = order-5, 16k cgroups = order-6 etc.) for every existing slab cache and list_lru, which can easily fail on loaded systems.

mm: fix data corruption caused by lazyfree page
MADV_FREE clears pte dirty bit and then marks the page lazyfree (clear
SwapBacked). There is no lock to prevent the page is added to swap
cache between these two steps by page reclaim. If page reclaim finds
such page, it will simply add the page to swap cache without pageout the
page to swap because the page is marked as clean. Next time, page fault
will read data from the swap slot which doesn't have the original data,
so we have a data corruption. To fix issue, we mark the page dirty and
pageout the page.
However, we shouldn't dirty all pages which is clean and in swap cache.
swapin page is swap cache and clean too. So we only dirty page which is
added into swap cache in page reclaim, which shouldn't be swapin page.
As Minchan suggested, simply dirty the page in add_to_swap can do the
job.

mm: avoid marking swap cached page as lazyfree
MADV_FREE clears pte dirty bit and then marks the page lazyfree (clear
SwapBacked). There is no lock to prevent the page is added to swap
cache between these two steps by page reclaim. Page reclaim could add
the page to swap cache and unmap the page. After page reclaim, the page
is added back to lru. At that time, we probably start draining per-cpu
pagevec and mark the page lazyfree. So the page could be in a state
with SwapBacked cleared and PG_swapcache set. Next time there is a
refault in the virtual address, do_swap_page can find the page from swap
cache but the page has PageSwapCache false because SwapBacked isn't set,
so do_swap_page will bail out and do nothing. The task will keep
running into fault handler.

mm: have filemap_check_and_advance_wb_err clear AS_EIO/AS_ENOSPC
Eryu noticed that he could sometimes get a leftover error reported when it shouldn't be on fsync with ext2 and non-journalled ext4. The problem is that writeback_single_inode still uses filemap_fdatawait. That picks up a previously set AS_EIO flag, which would ordinarily have been cleared before. Since we're mostly using this function as a replacement for filemap_check_errors, have filemap_check_and_advance_wb_err clear AS_EIO and AS_ENOSPC when reporting an error. That should allow the new function to better emulate the behavior of the old with respect to these flags.

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text.unlikely+0x4516): Section mismatch in reference from the function init_reserved_page() to the function .meminit.text:early_pfn_to_nid()
The function init_reserved_page() references the function __meminit early_pfn_to_nid().
This is often because init_reserved_page lacks a __meminit annotation or the annotation of early_pfn_to_nid is wrong.
On most compilers, we don't notice this because the function gets
inlined all the time. Adding __meminit here fixes the harmless warning
for the old versions and is generally the correct annotation.

mm, oom_reaper: skip mm structs with mmu notifiers
Andrea has noticed that the oom_reaper doesn't invalidate the range via
mmu notifiers (mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start/end) and that can
corrupt the memory of the kvm guest for example.
tlb_flush_mmu_tlbonly already invokes mmu notifiers but that is not
sufficient as per Andrea:
"mmu_notifier_invalidate_range cannot be used in replacement of
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start/end. For KVM
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range is a noop and rightfully so. A MMU
notifier implementation has to implement either ->invalidate_range
method or the invalidate_range_start/end methods, not both. And if you
implement invalidate_range_start/end like KVM is forced to do, calling
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range in common code is a noop for KVM.
For those MMU notifiers that can get away only implementing
->invalidate_range, the ->invalidate_range is implicitly called by
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end(). And only those secondary MMUs
that share the same pagetable with the primary MMU (like AMD iommuv2)
can get away only implementing ->invalidate_range"
As the callback is allowed to sleep and the implementation is out of
hand of the MM it is safer to simply bail out if there is an mmu
notifier registered. In order to not fail too early make the
mm_has_notifiers check under the oom_lock and have a little nap before
failing to give the current oom victim some more time to exit.

z3fold: fix potential race in z3fold_reclaim_page
It is possible that on a (partially) unsuccessful page reclaim, kref_put() called in z3fold_reclaim_page() does not yield page release, but the page is released shortly afterwards by another thread. Then z3fold_reclaim_page() would try to list_add() that (released) page again which is obviously a bug.

mm, hugetlb, soft_offline: save compound page order before page migration
This fixes a bug in madvise() where if you'd try to soft offline a
hugepage via madvise(), while walking the address range you'd end up,
using the wrong page offset due to attempting to get the compound order
of a former but presently not compound page, due to dissolving the huge
page (since commit c3114a84f7f9: "mm: hugetlb: soft-offline: dissolve
source hugepage after successful migration").
As a result I ended up with all my free pages except one being offlined.

percpu: fix iteration to prevent skipping over block
The iterator functions pcpu_next_md_free_region and pcpu_next_fit_region use the block offset to determine if they have checked the area in the prior iteration. However, this causes an issue when the block offset is greater than subsequent block contig hints. If within the iterator it moves to check subsequent blocks, it may fail in the second predicate due to the block offset not being cleared. Thus, this causes the allocator to skip over blocks leading to false failures when allocating from the reserved chunk. While this happens in the general case as well, it will only fail if it cannot allocate a new chunk. This patch resets the block offset to 0 to pass the second predicate when checking subseqent blocks within the iterator function.

fs: Fix page cache inconsistency when mixing buffered and AIO DIO
Currently when mixing buffered reads and asynchronous direct writes it is possible to end up with the situation where we have stale data in the page cache while the new data is already written to disk. This is permanent until the affected pages are flushed away. Despite the fact that mixing buffered and direct IO is ill-advised it does pose a thread for a data integrity, is unexpected and should be fixed. Fix this by deferring completion of asynchronous direct writes to a process context in the case that there are mapped pages to be found in the inode. Later before the completion in dio_complete() invalidate the pages in question. This ensures that after the completion the pages in the written area are either unmapped, or populated with up-to-date data. Also do the same for the iomap case which uses iomap_dio_complete() instead. This has a side effect of deferring the completion to a process context for every AIO DIO that happens on inode that has pages mapped. However since the consensus is that this is ill-advised practice the performance implication should not be a problem. This was based on proposal from Jeff Moyer, thanks!

Now that we have added breaks in the wait queue scan and allow bookmark on scan position, we put this logic in the wake_up_page_bit function. We can have very long page wait list in large system where multiple pages share the same wait list. We break the wake up walk here to allow other cpus a chance to access the list, and not to disable the interrupts when traversing the list for too long. This reduces the interrupt and rescheduling latency, and excessive page wait queue lock hold time.

mm, x86/mm: Fix performance regression in get_user_pages_fast()
The 0-day test bot found a performance regression that was tracked down to
switching x86 to the generic get_user_pages_fast() implementation:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170710024020.GA26389@yexl-desktop
The regression was caused by the fact that we now use local_irq_save() +
local_irq_restore() in get_user_pages_fast() to disable interrupts.
In x86 implementation local_irq_disable() + local_irq_enable() was used.
The fix is to make get_user_pages_fast() use local_irq_disable(),
leaving local_irq_save() for __get_user_pages_fast() that can be called
with interrupts disabled.

mm: fadvise: avoid fadvise for fs without backing device
The fadvise() manpage is silent on fadvise()'s effect on memory-based filesystems (shmem, hugetlbfs & ramfs) and pseudo file systems (procfs, sysfs, kernfs). The current implementaion of fadvise is mostly a noop for such filesystems except for FADV_DONTNEED which will trigger expensive remote LRU cache draining. This patch makes the noop of fadvise() on such file systems very explicit. However this change has two side effects for ramfs and one for tmpfs. First fadvise(FADV_DONTNEED) could remove the unmapped clean zero'ed pages of ramfs (allocated through read, readahead & read fault) and tmpfs (allocated through read fault). Also fadvise(FADV_WILLNEED) could create such clean zero'ed pages for ramfs. This change removes those possibilities. One of our generic libraries does fadvise(FADV_DONTNEED). Recently we observed high latency in fadvise() and noticed that the users have started using tmpfs files and the latency was due to expensive remote LRU cache draining. For normal tmpfs files (have data written on them), fadvise(FADV_DONTNEED) will always trigger the unneeded remote cache draining.

mm: update NUMA counter threshold size
There is significant overhead in cache bouncing caused by zone counters (NUMA associated counters) update in parallel in multi-threaded page allocation (suggested by Dave Hansen). This patch updates NUMA counter threshold to a fixed size of MAX_U16 - 2, as a small threshold greatly increases the update frequency of the global counter from local per cpu counter(suggested by Ying Huang).

mm: change the call sites of numa statistics items
Patch series "Separate NUMA statistics from zone statistics", v2. Each page allocation updates a set of per-zone statistics with a call to zone_statistics(). As discussed in 2017 MM summit, these are a substantial source of overhead in the page allocator and are very rarely consumed. This significant overhead in cache bouncing caused by zone counters (NUMA associated counters) update in parallel in multi-threaded page allocation (pointed out by Dave Hansen). A link to the MM summit slides: http://people.netfilter.org/hawk/presentations/MM-summit2017/MM-summit2017-JesperBrouer.pdf To mitigate this overhead, this patchset separates NUMA statistics from zone statistics framework, and update NUMA counter threshold to a fixed size of MAX_U16 - 2, as a small threshold greatly increases the update frequency of the global counter from local per cpu counter (suggested by Ying Huang). The rationality is that these statistics counters don't need to be read often, unlike other VM counters, so it's not a problem to use a large threshold and make readers more expensive. With this patchset, we see 31.3% drop of CPU cycles(537-->369, see below) for per single page allocation and reclaim on Jesper's page_bench03 benchmark. Meanwhile, this patchset keeps the same style of virtual memory statistics with little end-user-visible effects (only move the numa stats to show behind zone page stats, see the first patch for details). I did an experiment of single page allocation and reclaim concurrently using Jesper's page_bench03 benchmark on a 2-Socket Broadwell-based server (88 processors with 126G memory) with different size of threshold of pcp counter.

mm/migrate: new memory migration helper for use with device memory
This patch add a new memory migration helpers, which migrate memory backing a range of virtual address of a process to different memory (which can be allocated through special allocator). It differs from numa migration by working on a range of virtual address and thus by doing migration in chunk that can be large enough to use DMA engine or special copy offloading engine. Expected users are any one with heterogeneous memory where different memory have different characteristics (latency, bandwidth, ...). As an example IBM platform with CAPI bus can make use of this feature to migrate between regular memory and CAPI device memory. New CPU architecture with a pool of high performance memory not manage as cache but presented as regular memory (while being faster and with lower latency than DDR) will also be prime user of this patch. Migration to private device memory will be useful for device that have large pool of such like GPU, NVidia plans to use HMM for that.

mm/migrate: new migrate mode MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY
Introduce a new migration mode that allow to offload the copy to a device DMA engine. This changes the workflow of migration and not all address_space migratepage callback can support this. This is intended to be use by migrate_vma() which itself is use for thing like HMM (see include/linux/hmm.h). No additional per-filesystem migratepage testing is needed. I disables MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY in all problematic migratepage() callback and i added comment in those to explain why (part of this patch). The commit message is unclear it should say that any callback that wish to support this new mode need to be aware of the difference in the migration flow from other mode. Some of these callbacks do extra locking while copying (aio, zsmalloc, balloon, ...) and for DMA to be effective you want to copy multiple pages in one DMA operations. But in the problematic case you can not easily hold the extra lock accross multiple call to this callback. Usual flow is: For each page { 1 - lock page 2 - call migratepage() callback 3 - (extra locking in some migratepage() callback) 4 - migrate page state (freeze refcount, update page cache, buffer head, ...) 5 - copy page 6 - (unlock any extra lock of migratepage() callback) 7 - return from migratepage() callback 8 - unlock page } The new mode MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY: 1 - lock multiple pages For each page { 2 - call migratepage() callback 3 - abort in all problematic migratepage() callback 4 - migrate page state (freeze refcount, update page cache, buffer head, ...) } // finished all calls to migratepage() callback 5 - DMA copy multiple pages 6 - unlock all the pages To support MIGRATE_SYNC_NO_COPY in the problematic case we would need a new callback migratepages() (for instance) that deals with multiple pages in one transaction. Because the problematic cases are not important for current usage I did not wanted to complexify this patchset even more for no good reason.

It will find a unuse physical address range and trigger memory hotplug for it which allocates and initialize struct page for the device memory. Device driver should use this helper during device initialization to hotplug the device memory. It should only need to remove the memory once the device is going offline (shutdown or hotremove). There should not be any userspace API to hotplug memory expect maybe for host device driver to allow to add more memory to a guest device driver. Device's memory is manage by the device driver and HMM only provides helpers to that effect.

mm/memcontrol: allow to uncharge page without using page->lru field
HMM pages (private or public device pages) are ZONE_DEVICE page and thus you can not use page->lru fields of those pages. This patch re-arrange the uncharge to allow single page to be uncharge without modifying the lru field of the struct page. There is no change to memcontrol logic, it is the same as it was before this patch.

mm/ZONE_DEVICE: new type of ZONE_DEVICE for unaddressable memory
HMM (heterogeneous memory management) need struct page to support migration from system main memory to device memory. Reasons for HMM and migration to device memory is explained with HMM core patch. This patch deals with device memory that is un-addressable memory (ie CPU can not access it). Hence we do not want those struct page to be manage like regular memory. That is why we extend ZONE_DEVICE to support different types of memory. A persistent memory type is define for existing user of ZONE_DEVICE and a new device un-addressable type is added for the un-addressable memory type. There is a clear separation between what is expected from each memory type and existing user of ZONE_DEVICE are un-affected by new requirement and new use of the un-addressable type. All specific code path are protect with test against the memory type. Because memory is un-addressable we use a new special swap type for when a page is migrated to device memory (this reduces the number of maximum swap file). The main two additions beside memory type to ZONE_DEVICE is two callbacks. First one, page_free() is call whenever page refcount reach 1 (which means the page is free as ZONE_DEVICE page never reach a refcount of 0). This allow device driver to manage its memory and associated struct page. The second callback page_fault() happens when there is a CPU access to an address that is back by a device page (which are un-addressable by the CPU). This callback is responsible to migrate the page back to system main memory. Device driver can not block migration back to system memory, HMM make sure that such page can not be pin into device memory. If device is in some error condition and can not migrate memory back then a CPU page fault to device memory should end with SIGBUS.

mm/hmm/mirror: mirror process address space on device with HMM helpers
This is a heterogeneous memory management (HMM) process address space mirroring. In a nutshell this provide an API to mirror process address space on a device. This boils down to keeping CPU and device page table synchronize (we assume that both device and CPU are cache coherent like PCIe device can be). This patch provide a simple API for device driver to achieve address space mirroring thus avoiding each device driver to grow its own CPU page table walker and its own CPU page table synchronization mechanism. This is useful for NVidia GPU >= Pascal, Mellanox IB >= mlx5 and more hardware in the future.

mm: thp: check pmd migration entry in common path
When THP migration is being used, memory management code needs to handle pmd migration entries properly. This patch uses !pmd_present() or is_swap_pmd() (depending on whether pmd_none() needs separate code or not) to check pmd migration entries at the places where a pmd entry is present. Since pmd-related code uses split_huge_page(), split_huge_pmd(), pmd_trans_huge(), pmd_trans_unstable(), or pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), this patch: 1. adds pmd migration entry split code in split_huge_pmd(), 2. takes care of pmd migration entries whenever pmd_trans_huge() is present, 3. makes pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() pmd migration entry aware. Since split_huge_page() uses split_huge_pmd() and pmd_trans_unstable() is equivalent to pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), we do not change them. Until this commit, a pmd entry should be: 1. pointing to a pte page, 2. is_swap_pmd(), 3. pmd_trans_huge(), 4. pmd_devmap(), or 5. pmd_none().

mm: thp: introduce separate TTU flag for thp freezing
TTU_MIGRATION is used to convert pte into migration entry until thp split completes. This behavior conflicts with thp migration added later patches, so let's introduce a new TTU flag specifically for freezing. try_to_unmap() is used both for thp split (via freeze_page()) and page migration (via __unmap_and_move()). In freeze_page(), ttu_flag given for head page is like below (assuming anonymous thp): (TTU_IGNORE_MLOCK | TTU_IGNORE_ACCESS | TTU_RMAP_LOCKED | \ TTU_MIGRATION | TTU_SPLIT_HUGE_PMD) and ttu_flag given for tail pages is: (TTU_IGNORE_MLOCK | TTU_IGNORE_ACCESS | TTU_RMAP_LOCKED | \ TTU_MIGRATION) __unmap_and_move() calls try_to_unmap() with ttu_flag: (TTU_MIGRATION | TTU_IGNORE_MLOCK | TTU_IGNORE_ACCESS) Now I'm trying to insert a branch for thp migration at the top of try_to_unmap_one() like below static int try_to_unmap_one(struct page *page, struct vm_area_struct *vma, unsigned long address, void *arg) { ... /* PMD-mapped THP migration entry */ if (!pvmw.pte && (flags & TTU_MIGRATION)) { if (!PageAnon(page)) continue; set_pmd_migration_entry(&pvmw, page); continue; } ... } so try_to_unmap() for tail pages called by thp split can go into thp migration code path (which converts *pmd* into migration entry), while the expectation is to freeze thp (which converts *pte* into migration entry.) I detected this failure as a "bad page state" error in a testcase where split_huge_page() is called from queue_pages_pte_range().

As David Nellans from NVIDIA pointed out from other threads (http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org/msg1349227.html), future GPUs or other accelerators will have their memory managed by operating systems. Moving data into and out of these memory nodes efficiently is critical to applications that use GPUs or other accelerators. Existing page migration only supports base pages, which has a very low memory bandwidth utilization. My experiments (see below) show THP migration can migrate pages more efficiently. 2. Base page migration vs THP migration throughput. Here are cross-socket page migration results from calling move_pages() syscall: In x86_64, a Intel two-socket E5-2640v3 box, - single 4KB base page migration takes 62.47 us, using 0.06 GB/s BW, - single 2MB THP migration takes 658.54 us, using 2.97 GB/s BW, - 512 4KB base page migration takes 1987.38 us, using 0.98 GB/s BW. In ppc64, a two-socket Power8 box, - single 64KB base page migration takes 49.3 us, using 1.24 GB/s BW, - single 16MB THP migration takes 2202.17 us, using 7.10 GB/s BW, - 256 64KB base page migration takes 2543.65 us, using 6.14 GB/s BW. THP migration can give us 3x and 1.15x throughput over base page migration in x86_64 and ppc64 respectivley. You can test it out by using the code here: https://github.com/x-y-z/thp-migration-bench 3. Existing page migration splits THP before migration and cannot guarantee the migrated pages are still contiguous. Contiguity is always what GPUs and accelerators look for. Without THP migration, khugepaged needs to do extra work to reassemble the migrated pages back to THPs. This patch (of 10): Introduce a separate check routine related to MPOL_MF_INVERT flag. This patch just does cleanup, no behavioral change.

powerpc updates for 4.14
Nothing really major this release, despite quite a lot of activity. Just lots of things all over the place. Some things of note include: - Access via perf to a new type of PMU (IMC) on Power9, which can count both core events as well as nest unit events (Memory controller etc). - Optimisations to the radix MMU TLB flushing, mostly to avoid unnecessary Page Walk Cache (PWC) flushes when the structure of the tree is not changing. - Reworks/cleanups of do_page_fault() to modernise it and bring it closer to other architectures where possible. - Rework of our page table walking so that THP updates only need to send IPIs to CPUs where the affected mm has run, rather than all CPUs. - The size of our vmalloc area is increased to 56T on 64-bit hash MMU systems. This avoids problems with the percpu allocator on systems with very sparse NUMA layouts. - STRICT_KERNEL_RWX support on PPC32. - A new sched domain topology for Power9, to capture the fact that pairs of cores may share an L2 cache. - Power9 support for VAS, which is a new mechanism for accessing coprocessors, and initial support for using it with the NX compression accelerator. - Major work on the instruction emulation support, adding support for many new instructions, and reworking it so it can be used to implement the emulation needed to fixup alignment faults. - Support for guests under PowerVM to use the Power9 XIVE interrupt controller. And probably that many things again that are almost as interesting, but I had to keep the list short. Plus the usual fixes and cleanups as always.

Pull percpu updates from Tejun Heo: "A lot of changes for percpu this time around. percpu inherited the same area allocator from the original pre-virtual-address-mapped implementation. This was from the time when percpu allocator wasn't used all that much and the implementation was focused on simplicity, with the unfortunate computational complexity of O(number of areas allocated from the chunk) per alloc / free. With the increase in percpu usage, we're hitting cases where the lack of scalability is hurting. The most prominent one right now is bpf perpcu map creation / destruction which may allocate and free a lot of entries consecutively and it's likely that the problem will become more prominent in the future. To address the issue, Dennis replaced the area allocator with hinted bitmap allocator which is more consistent.

mm,fork: introduce MADV_WIPEONFORK
Introduce MADV_WIPEONFORK semantics, which result in a VMA being empty in the child process after fork. This differs from MADV_DONTFORK in one important way. If a child process accesses memory that was MADV_WIPEONFORK, it will get zeroes. The address ranges are still valid, they are just empty. If a child process accesses memory that was MADV_DONTFORK, it will get a segmentation fault, since those address ranges are no longer valid in the child after fork. Since MADV_DONTFORK also seems to be used to allow very large programs to fork in systems with strict memory overcommit restrictions, changing the semantics of MADV_DONTFORK might break existing programs. MADV_WIPEONFORK only works on private, anonymous VMAs. The use case is libraries that store or cache information, and want to know that they need to regenerate it in the child process after fork. Examples of this would be: - systemd/pulseaudio API checks (fail after fork) (replacing a getpid check, which is too slow without a PID cache) - PKCS#11 API reinitialization check (mandated by specification) - glibc's upcoming PRNG (reseed after fork) - OpenSSL PRNG (reseed after fork) The security benefits of a forking server having a re-inialized PRNG in every child process are pretty obvious. However, due to libraries having all kinds of internal state, and programs getting compiled with many different versions of each library, it is unreasonable to expect calling programs to re-initialize everything manually after fork. A further complication is the proliferation of clone flags, programs bypassing glibc's functions to call clone directly, and programs calling unshare, causing the glibc pthread_atfork hook to not get called. It would be better to have the kernel take care of this automatically. The patch also adds MADV_KEEPONFORK, to undo the effects of a prior MADV_WIPEONFORK.

mm: hugetlb: clear target sub-page last when clearing huge page
Huge page helps to reduce TLB miss rate, but it has higher cache footprint, sometimes this may cause some issue. For example, when clearing huge page on x86_64 platform, the cache footprint is 2M. But on a Xeon E5 v3 2699 CPU, there are 18 cores, 36 threads, and only 45M LLC (last level cache). That is, in average, there are 2.5M LLC for each core and 1.25M LLC for each thread. If the cache pressure is heavy when clearing the huge page, and we clear the huge page from the begin to the end, it is possible that the begin of huge page is evicted from the cache after we finishing clearing the end of the huge page. And it is possible for the application to access the begin of the huge page after clearing the huge page. To help the above situation, in this patch, when we clear a huge page, the order to clear sub-pages is changed. In quite some situation, we can get the address that the application will access after we clear the huge page, for example, in a page fault handler. Instead of clearing the huge page from begin to end, we will clear the sub-pages farthest from the the sub-page to access firstly, and clear the sub-page to access last. This will make the sub-page to access most cache-hot and sub-pages around it more cache-hot too. If we cannot know the address the application will access, the begin of the huge page is assumed to be the the address the application will access. With this patch, the throughput increases ~28.3% in vm-scalability anon-w-seq test case with 72 processes on a 2 socket Xeon E5 v3 2699 system (36 cores, 72 threads). The test case creates 72 processes, each process mmap a big anonymous memory area and writes to it from the begin to the end. For each process, other processes could be seen as other workload which generates heavy cache pressure. At the same time, the cache miss rate reduced from ~33.4% to ~31.7%, the IPC (instruction per cycle) increased from 0.56 to 0.74, and the time spent in user space is reduced ~7.9% Christopher Lameter suggests to clear bytes inside a sub-page from end to begin too. But tests show no visible performance difference in the tests. May because the size of page is small compared with the cache size. Thanks Andi Kleen to propose to use address to access to determine the order of sub-pages to clear. The hugetlbfs access address could be improved, will do that in another patch.

mm: oom: let oom_reap_task and exit_mmap run concurrently
This is purely required because exit_aio() may block and exit_mmap() may
never start, if the oom_reap_task cannot start running on a mm with
mm_users == 0.
At the same time if the OOM reaper doesn't wait at all for the memory of
the current OOM candidate to be freed by exit_mmap->unmap_vmas, it would
generate a spurious OOM kill.
If it wasn't because of the exit_aio or similar blocking functions in
the last mmput, it would be enough to change the oom_reap_task() in the
case it finds mm_users == 0, to wait for a timeout or to wait for
__mmput to set MMF_OOM_SKIP itself, but it's not just exit_mmap the
problem here so the concurrency of exit_mmap and oom_reap_task is
apparently warranted.
It's a non standard runtime, exit_mmap() runs without mmap_sem, and
oom_reap_task runs with the mmap_sem for reading as usual (kind of
MADV_DONTNEED).
The race between the two is solved with a combination of
tsk_is_oom_victim() (serialized by task_lock) and MMF_OOM_SKIP
(serialized by a dummy down_write/up_write cycle on the same lines of
the ksm_exit method).
If the oom_reap_task() may be running concurrently during exit_mmap,
exit_mmap will wait it to finish in down_write (before taking down mm
structures that would make the oom_reap_task fail with use after free).
If exit_mmap comes first, oom_reap_task() will skip the mm if
MMF_OOM_SKIP is already set and in turn all memory is already freed and
furthermore the mm data structures may already have been taken down by
free_pgtables.

swap: choose swap device according to numa node
If the system has more than one swap device and swap device has the node information, we can make use of this information to decide which swap device to use in get_swap_pages() to get better performance. The current code uses a priority based list, swap_avail_list, to decide which swap device to use and if multiple swap devices share the same priority, they are used round robin. This patch changes the previous single global swap_avail_list into a per-numa-node list, i.e. for each numa node, it sees its own priority based list of available swap devices. Swap device's priority can be promoted on its matching node's swap_avail_list. The current swap device's priority is set as: user can set a >=0 value, or the system will pick one starting from -1 then downwards. The priority value in the swap_avail_list is the negated value of the swap device's due to plist being sorted from low to high. The new policy doesn't change the semantics for priority >=0 cases, the previous starting from -1 then downwards now becomes starting from -2 then downwards and -1 is reserved as the promoted value. Take 4-node EX machine as an example, suppose 4 swap devices are available, each sit on a different node: swapA on node 0 swapB on node 1 swapC on node 2 swapD on node 3 After they are all swapped on in the sequence of ABCD. Current behaviour: their priorities will be: swapA: -1 swapB: -2 swapC: -3 swapD: -4 And their position in the global swap_avail_list will be: swapA -> swapB -> swapC -> swapD prio:1 prio:2 prio:3 prio:4 New behaviour: their priorities will be(note that -1 is skipped): swapA: -2 swapB: -3 swapC: -4 swapD: -5 And their positions in the 4 swap_avail_lists[nid] will be: swap_avail_lists[0]: /* node 0's available swap device list */ swapA -> swapB -> swapC -> swapD prio:1 prio:3 prio:4 prio:5 swap_avali_lists[1]: /* node 1's available swap device list */ swapB -> swapA -> swapC -> swapD prio:1 prio:2 prio:4 prio:5 swap_avail_lists[2]: /* node 2's available swap device list */ swapC -> swapA -> swapB -> swapD prio:1 prio:2 prio:3 prio:5 swap_avail_lists[3]: /* node 3's available swap device list */ swapD -> swapA -> swapB -> swapC prio:1 prio:2 prio:3 prio:4 To see the effect of the patch, a test that starts N process, each mmap a region of anonymous memory and then continually write to it at random position to trigger both swap in and out is used. On a 2 node Skylake EP machine with 64GiB memory, two 170GB SSD drives are used as swap devices with each attached to a different node, the result is: runtime=30m/processes=32/total test size=128G/each process mmap region=4G kernel throughput vanilla 13306 auto-binding 15169 +14% runtime=30m/processes=64/total test size=128G/each process mmap region=2G kernel throughput vanilla 11885 auto-binding 14879 +25% [aaron.lu@intel.com: v2] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170814053130.GD2369@aaronlu.sh.intel.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170816024439.GA10925@aaronlu.sh.intel.com [akpm@linux-foundation.org: use kmalloc_array()] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170814053130.GD2369@aaronlu.sh.intel.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170816024439.GA10925@aaronlu.sh.intel.com Signed-off-by: Aaron Lu <aaron.lu@intel.com> Cc: "Chen, Tim C" <tim.c.chen@intel.com> Cc: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

mm: replace TIF_MEMDIE checks by tsk_is_oom_victim
TIF_MEMDIE is set only to the tasks whick were either directly selected by the OOM killer or passed through mark_oom_victim from the allocator path. tsk_is_oom_victim is more generic and allows to identify all tasks (threads) which share the mm with the oom victim. Please note that the freezer still needs to check TIF_MEMDIE because we cannot thaw tasks which do not participage in oom_victims counting otherwise a !TIF_MEMDIE task could interfere after oom_disbale returns.

mm, oom: do not rely on TIF_MEMDIE for memory reserves access
For ages we have been relying on TIF_MEMDIE thread flag to mark OOM
victims and then, among other things, to give these threads full access
to memory reserves. There are few shortcomings of this implementation,
though.
First of all and the most serious one is that the full access to memory
reserves is quite dangerous because we leave no safety room for the
system to operate and potentially do last emergency steps to move on.
Secondly this flag is per task_struct while the OOM killer operates on
mm_struct granularity so all processes sharing the given mm are killed.
Giving the full access to all these task_structs could lead to a quick
memory reserves depletion. We have tried to reduce this risk by giving
TIF_MEMDIE only to the main thread and the currently allocating task but
that doesn't really solve this problem while it surely opens up a room
for corner cases - e.g. GFP_NO{FS,IO} requests might loop inside the
allocator without access to memory reserves because a particular thread
was not the group leader.
Now that we have the oom reaper and that all oom victims are reapable
after

z3fold: use per-cpu unbuddied lists
It's been noted that z3fold doesn't scale well when it's run in a large number of threads on many cores, which can be easily reproduced with fio 'randrw' test with --numjobs=32. E.g. the result for 1 cluster (4 cores) is: Run status group 0 (all jobs): READ: io=244785MB, aggrb=496883KB/s, minb=15527KB/s, ... WRITE: io=246735MB, aggrb=500841KB/s, minb=15651KB/s, ... While for 8 cores (2 clusters) the result is: Run status group 0 (all jobs): READ: io=244785MB, aggrb=265942KB/s, minb=8310KB/s, ... WRITE: io=246735MB, aggrb=268060KB/s, minb=8376KB/s, ... The bottleneck here is the pool lock which many threads become waiting upon. To reduce that spin lock contention, z3fold can operate only on the lists local to the current CPU whenever possible. Due to the nature of z3fold unbuddied list handling (it only takes the first entry off the list on a hot path), if the z3fold pool is big enough and balanced well enough, limiting search to only local unbuddied list doesn't lead to a significant compression ratio degrade (2.57x vs 2.65x in our measurements). This patch also introduces two worker threads: one for async in-page object layout optimization and one for releasing freed pages. This is done to speed up z3fold_free() which is often on a hot path. The fio results for 8-core case are now the following: Run status group 0 (all jobs): READ: io=244785MB, aggrb=1568.3MB/s, minb=50182KB/s, ... WRITE: io=246735MB, aggrb=1580.8MB/s, minb=50582KB/s, ... So we're in for almost 6x performance increase.

mm, swap: don't use VMA based swap readahead if HDD is used as swap
VMA based swap readahead will readahead the virtual pages that is continuous in the virtual address space. While the original swap readahead will readahead the swap slots that is continuous in the swap device. Although VMA based swap readahead is more correct for the swap slots to be readahead, it will trigger more small random readings, which may cause the performance of HDD (hard disk) to degrade heavily, and may finally exceed the benefit. To avoid the issue, in this patch, if the HDD is used as swap, the VMA based swap readahead will be disabled, and the original swap readahead will be used instead.

mm, swap: VMA based swap readahead
The swap readahead is an important mechanism to reduce the swap in latency. Although pure sequential memory access pattern isn't very popular for anonymous memory, the space locality is still considered valid. In the original swap readahead implementation, the consecutive blocks in swap device are readahead based on the global space locality estimation. But the consecutive blocks in swap device just reflect the order of page reclaiming, don't necessarily reflect the access pattern in virtual memory. And the different tasks in the system may have different access patterns, which makes the global space locality estimation incorrect. In this patch, when page fault occurs, the virtual pages near the fault address will be readahead instead of the swap slots near the fault swap slot in swap device. This avoid to readahead the unrelated swap slots. At the same time, the swap readahead is changed to work on per-VMA from globally. So that the different access patterns of the different VMAs could be distinguished, and the different readahead policy could be applied accordingly. The original core readahead detection and scaling algorithm is reused, because it is an effect algorithm to detect the space locality. The test and result is as follow, Common test condition ===================== Test Machine: Xeon E5 v3 (2 sockets, 72 threads, 32G RAM) Swap device: NVMe disk Micro-benchmark with combined access pattern ============================================ vm-scalability, sequential swap test case, 4 processes to eat 50G virtual memory space, repeat the sequential memory writing until 300 seconds. The first round writing will trigger swap out, the following rounds will trigger sequential swap in and out. At the same time, run vm-scalability random swap test case in background, 8 processes to eat 30G virtual memory space, repeat the random memory write until 300 seconds. This will trigger random swap-in in the background. This is a combined workload with sequential and random memory accessing at the same time. The result (for sequential workload) is as follow, Base Optimized ---- --------- throughput 345413 KB/s 414029 KB/s (+19.9%) latency.average 97.14 us 61.06 us (-37.1%) latency.50th 2 us 1 us latency.60th 2 us 1 us latency.70th 98 us 2 us latency.80th 160 us 2 us latency.90th 260 us 217 us latency.95th 346 us 369 us latency.99th 1.34 ms 1.09 ms ra_hit% 52.69% 99.98% The original swap readahead algorithm is confused by the background random access workload, so readahead hit rate is lower. The VMA-base readahead algorithm works much better. Linpack ======= The test memory size is bigger than RAM to trigger swapping. Base Optimized ---- --------- elapsed_time 393.49 s 329.88 s (-16.2%) ra_hit% 86.21% 98.82% The score of base and optimized kernel hasn't visible changes. But the elapsed time reduced and readahead hit rate improved, so the optimized kernel runs better for startup and tear down stages. And the absolute value of readahead hit rate is high, shows that the space locality is still valid in some practical workloads.

mm, swap: fix swap readahead marking
In the original implementation, it is possible that the existing pages in the swap cache (not newly readahead) could be marked as the readahead pages. This will cause the statistics of swap readahead be wrong and influence the swap readahead algorithm too. This is fixed via marking a page as the readahead page only if it is newly allocated and read from the disk. When testing with linpack, after the fixing the swap readahead hit rate increased from ~66% to ~86%.

mm, swap: add swap readahead hit statistics
Patch series "mm, swap: VMA based swap readahead", v4. The swap readahead is an important mechanism to reduce the swap in latency. Although pure sequential memory access pattern isn't very popular for anonymous memory, the space locality is still considered valid. In the original swap readahead implementation, the consecutive blocks in swap device are readahead based on the global space locality estimation.

So that the different access patterns of the different VMAs could be distinguished, and the different readahead policy could be applied accordingly. The original core readahead detection and scaling algorithm is reused, because it is an effect algorithm to detect the space locality. In addition to the swap readahead changes, some new sysfs interface is added to show the efficiency of the readahead algorithm and some other swap statistics. This new implementation will incur more small random read, on SSD, the improved correctness of estimation and readahead target should beat the potential increased overhead, this is also illustrated in the test results below. But on HDD, the overhead may beat the benefit, so the original implementation will be used by default. The test and result is as follow, Common test condition ===================== Test Machine: Xeon E5 v3 (2 sockets, 72 threads, 32G RAM) Swap device: NVMe disk Micro-benchmark with combined access pattern ============================================ vm-scalability, sequential swap test case, 4 processes to eat 50G virtual memory space, repeat the sequential memory writing until 300 seconds.

mm/shmem: add hugetlbfs support to memfd_create()
This patch came out of discussions in this e-mail thread: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1499357846-7481-1-git-send-email-mike.kravetz%40oracle.com The Oracle JVM team is developing a new garbage collection model. This new model requires multiple mappings of the same anonymous memory. One straight forward way to accomplish this is with memfd_create. They can use the returned fd to create multiple mappings of the same memory. The JVM today has an option to use (static hugetlb) huge pages. If this option is specified, they would like to use the same garbage collection model requiring multiple mappings to the same memory. Using hugetlbfs, it is possible to explicitly mount a filesystem and specify file paths in order to get an fd that can be used for multiple mappings. However, this introduces additional system admin work and coordination. Ideally they would like to get a hugetlbfs fd without requiring explicit mounting of a filesystem. Today, mmap and shmget can make use of hugetlbfs without explicitly mounting a filesystem. The patch adds this functionality to memfd_create. Add a new flag MFD_HUGETLB to memfd_create() that will specify the file to be created resides in the hugetlbfs filesystem. This is the generic hugetlbfs filesystem not associated with any specific mount point. As with other system calls that request hugetlbfs backed pages, there is the ability to encode huge page size in the flag arguments. hugetlbfs does not support sealing operations, therefore specifying MFD_ALLOW_SEALING with MFD_HUGETLB will result in EINVAL. Of course, the memfd_man page would need updating if this type of functionality moves forward.

mm, devm_memremap_pages: use multi-order radix for ZONE_DEVICE lookups
devm_memremap_pages() records mapped ranges in pgmap_radix with an entry per section's worth of memory (128MB). The key for each of those entries is a section number. This leads to false positives when devm_memremap_pages() is passed a section-unaligned range as lookups in the misalignment fail to return NULL. We can close this hole by using the pfn as the key for entries in the tree. The number of entries required to describe a remapped range is reduced by leveraging multi-order entries. In practice this approach usually yields just one entry in the tree if the size and starting address are of the same power-of-2 alignment. Previously we always needed nr_entries = mapping_size / 128MB.

that all allocations are migrateable and as such break memory hotplug.
Reorganize the code and use the standard zonelist allocations scheme

userfaultfd: call userfaultfd_unmap_prep only if __split_vma succeeds
A __split_vma is not a worthy event to report, and it's definitely not a unmap so it would be incorrect to report unmap for the whole region to the userfaultfd manager if a __split_vma fails. So only call userfaultfd_unmap_prep after the __vma_splitting is over and do_munmap cannot fail anymore. Also add unlikely because it's better to optimize for the vast majority of apps that aren't using userfaultfd in a non cooperative way. Ideally we should also find a way to eliminate the branch entirely if CONFIG_USERFAULTFD=n, but it would complicate things so stick to unlikely for now.

mm: rename global_page_state to global_zone_page_state
global_page_state is error prone as a recent bug report pointed out [1]. It only returns proper values for zone based counters as the enum it gets suggests.

mm, THP, swap: delay splitting THP after swapped out
In this patch, splitting transparent huge page (THP) during swapping out is delayed from after adding the THP into the swap cache to after swapping out finishes. After the patch, more operations for the anonymous THP reclaiming, such as writing the THP to the swap device, removing the THP from the swap cache could be batched. So that the performance of anonymous THP swapping out could be improved. This is the second step for the THP swap support. The plan is to delay splitting the THP step by step and avoid splitting the THP finally. With the patchset, the swap out throughput improves 42% (from about 5.81GB/s to about 8.25GB/s) in the vm-scalability swap-w-seq test case with 16 processes. At the same time, the IPI (reflect TLB flushing) reduced about 78.9%. The test is done on a Xeon E5 v3 system. The swap device used is a RAM simulated PMEM (persistent memory) device. To test the sequential swapping out, the test case creates 8 processes, which sequentially allocate and write to the anonymous pages until the RAM and part of the swap device is used up.

So reuse_swap_page() need to check the swap count in addition to the map count as before. This patch done that. In the huge PMD write protect fault handler, in addition to the page map count, the swap count need to be checked too, so the page lock need to be acquired too when calling reuse_swap_page() in addition to the page table lock.

mm, THP, swap: support to reclaim swap space for THP swapped out
The normal swap slot reclaiming can be done when the swap count reaches SWAP_HAS_CACHE. But for the swap slot which is backing a THP, all swap slots backing one THP must be reclaimed together, because the swap slot may be used again when the THP is swapped out again later. So the swap slots backing one THP can be reclaimed together when the swap count for all swap slots for the THP reached SWAP_HAS_CACHE. In the patch, the functions to check whether the swap count for all swap slots backing one THP reached SWAP_HAS_CACHE are implemented and used when checking whether a swap slot can be reclaimed. To make it easier to determine whether a swap slot is backing a THP, a new swap cluster flag named CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE is added to mark a swap cluster which is backing a THP (Transparent Huge Page). Because THP swap in as a whole isn't supported now. After deleting the THP from the swap cache (for example, swapping out finished), the CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE flag will be cleared. So that, the normal pages inside THP can be swapped in individually.

mm, THP, swap: support to clear swap cache flag for THP swapped out
Patch series "mm, THP, swap: Delay splitting THP after swapped out", v3. This is the second step of THP (Transparent Huge Page) swap optimization. In the first step, the splitting huge page is delayed from almost the first step of swapping out to after allocating the swap space for the THP and adding the THP into the swap cache. In the second step, the splitting is delayed further to after the swapping out finished. The plan is to delay splitting THP step by step, finally avoid splitting THP for the THP swapping out and swap out/in the THP as a whole. In the patchset, more operations for the anonymous THP reclaiming, such as TLB flushing, writing the THP to the swap device, removing the THP from the swap cache are batched. So that the performance of anonymous THP swapping out are improved. During the development, the following scenarios/code paths have been checked, - swap out/in - swap off - write protect page fault - madvise_free - process exit - split huge page With the patchset, the swap out throughput improves 42% (from about 5.81GB/s to about 8.25GB/s) in the vm-scalability swap-w-seq test case with 16 processes. At the same time, the IPI (reflect TLB flushing) reduced about 78.9%. The test is done on a Xeon E5 v3 system. The swap device used is a RAM simulated PMEM (persistent memory) device. To test the sequential swapping out, the test case creates 8 processes, which sequentially allocate and write to the anonymous pages until the RAM and part of the swap device is used up. Below is the part of the cover letter for the first step patchset of THP swap optimization which applies to all steps. ========================= Recently, the performance of the storage devices improved so fast that we cannot saturate the disk bandwidth with single logical CPU when do page swap out even on a high-end server machine. Because the performance of the storage device improved faster than that of single logical CPU. And it seems that the trend will not change in the near future. On the other hand, the THP becomes more and more popular because of increased memory size. So it becomes necessary to optimize THP swap performance. The advantages of the THP swap support include: - Batch the swap operations for the THP to reduce TLB flushing and lock acquiring/releasing, including allocating/freeing the swap space, adding/deleting to/from the swap cache, and writing/reading the swap space, etc. This will help improve the performance of the THP swap. - The THP swap space read/write will be 2M sequential IO. It is particularly helpful for the swap read, which are usually 4k random IO. This will improve the performance of the THP swap too. - It will help the memory fragmentation, especially when the THP is heavily used by the applications. The 2M continuous pages will be free up after THP swapping out. - It will improve the THP utilization on the system with the swap turned on. Because the speed for khugepaged to collapse the normal pages into the THP is quite slow. After the THP is split during the swapping out, it will take quite long time for the normal pages to collapse back into the THP after being swapped in. The high THP utilization helps the efficiency of the page based memory management too. There are some concerns regarding THP swap in, mainly because possible enlarged read/write IO size (for swap in/out) may put more overhead on the storage device. To deal with that, the THP swap in should be turned on only when necessary. For example, it can be selected via "always/never/madvise" logic, to be turned on globally, turned off globally, or turned on only for VMA with MADV_HUGEPAGE, etc. This patch (of 12): Previously, swapcache_free_cluster() is used only in the error path of shrink_page_list() to free the swap cluster just allocated if the THP (Transparent Huge Page) is failed to be split. In this patch, it is enhanced to clear the swap cache flag (SWAP_HAS_CACHE) for the swap cluster that holds the contents of THP swapped out. This will be used in delaying splitting THP after swapping out support. Because there is no THP swapping in as a whole support yet, after clearing the swap cache flag, the swap cluster backing the THP swapped out will be split. So that the swap slots in the swap cluster can be swapped in as normal pages later.

mm: memcontrol: use int for event/state parameter in several functions
Several functions use an enum type as parameter for an event/state, but are called in some locations with an argument of a different enum type. Adjust the interface of these functions to reality by changing the parameter to int. This fixes a ton of enum-conversion warnings that are generated when building the kernel with clang.

mm, memcg: reset memory.low during memcg offlining
A removed memory cgroup with a defined memory.low and some belonging
pagecache has very low chances to be freed.
If a cgroup has been removed, there is likely no memory pressure inside
the cgroup, and the pagecache is protected from the external pressure by
the defined low limit. The cgroup will be freed only after the reclaim
of all belonging pages. And it will not happen until there are any
reclaimable memory in the system. That means, there is a good chance,
that a cold pagecache will reside in the memory for an undefined amount
of time, wasting system resources.

mm, vmscan: do not loop on too_many_isolated for ever
Tetsuo Handa has reported[1][2][3] that direct reclaimers might get stuck in too_many_isolated loop basically for ever because the last few pages on the LRU lists are isolated by the kswapd which is stuck on fs locks when doing the pageout or slab reclaim. This in turn means that there is nobody to actually trigger the oom killer and the system is basically unusable. too_many_isolated has been introduced by commit |

zsmalloc: zs_page_migrate: skip unnecessary loops but not return -EBUSY if zspage is not inuse
Getting -EBUSY from zs_page_migrate will make migration slow (retry) or fail (zs_page_putback will schedule_work free_work, but it cannot ensure the success). I noticed this issue because my Kernel patched (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/28/113) that will remove retry in __alloc_contig_migrate_range. This retry will handle the -EBUSY because it will re-isolate the page and re-call migrate_pages. Without it will make cma_alloc fail at once with -EBUSY. According to the review from Minchan Kim in https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/28/113, I update the patch to skip unnecessary loops but not return -EBUSY if zspage is not inuse. Following is what I got with highalloc-performance in a vbox with 2 cpu 1G memory 512 zram as swap.

mm: always flush VMA ranges affected by zap_page_range
Nadav Amit report zap_page_range only specifies that the caller protect the VMA list but does not specify whether it is held for read or write with callers using either. madvise holds mmap_sem for read meaning that a parallel zap operation can unmap PTEs which are then potentially skipped by madvise which potentially returns with stale TLB entries present. While the API could be extended, it would be a difficult API to use. This patch causes zap_page_range() to always consider flushing the full affected range. For small ranges or sparsely populated mappings, this may result in one additional spurious TLB flush. For larger ranges, it is possible that the TLB has already been flushed and the overhead is negligible. Either way, this approach is safer overall and avoids stale entries being present when madvise returns. This can be illustrated with the following program provided by Nadav Amit and slightly modified. With the patch applied, it has an exit code of 0 indicating a stale TLB entry did not leak to userspace. ---8<--- volatile int sync_step = 0; volatile char *p; static inline unsigned long rdtsc() { unsigned long hi, lo; __asm__ __volatile__ ("rdtsc" : "=a"(lo), "=d"(hi)); return lo | (hi << 32); } static inline void wait_rdtsc(unsigned long cycles) { unsigned long tsc = rdtsc(); while (rdtsc() - tsc < cycles); } void *big_madvise_thread(void *ign) { sync_step = 1; while (sync_step != 2); madvise((void*)p, PAGE_SIZE * N_PAGES, MADV_DONTNEED); } int main(void) { pthread_t aux_thread; p = mmap(0, PAGE_SIZE * N_PAGES, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0); memset((void*)p, 8, PAGE_SIZE * N_PAGES); pthread_create(&aux_thread, NULL, big_madvise_thread, NULL); while (sync_step != 1); *p = 8; // Cache in TLB sync_step = 2; wait_rdtsc(100000); madvise((void*)p, PAGE_SIZE, MADV_DONTNEED); printf("data: %d (%s)\n", *p, (*p == 8 ? "stale, broken" : "cleared, fine")); return *p == 8 ? -1 : 0; } ---8<--- Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170725101230.5v7gvnjmcnkzzql3@techsingularity.net Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Reported-by: Nadav Amit <nadav.amit@gmail.com> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

mm/hugetlb.c: make huge_pte_offset() consistent and document behaviour
When walking the page tables to resolve an address that points to !p*d_present() entry, huge_pte_offset() returns inconsistent values depending on the level of page table (PUD or PMD). It returns NULL in the case of a PUD entry while in the case of a PMD entry, it returns a pointer to the page table entry. A similar inconsitency exists when handling swap entries - returns NULL for a PUD entry while a pointer to the pte_t is retured for the PMD entry. Update huge_pte_offset() to make the behaviour consistent - return a pointer to the pte_t for hugepage or swap entries. Only return NULL in instances where we have a p*d_none() entry and the size parameter doesn't match the hugepage size at this level of the page table. Document the behaviour to clarify the expected behaviour of this function. This is to set clear semantics for architecture specific implementations of huge_pte_offset(). Discussions on the arm64 implementation of huge_pte_offset() (http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg133699.html) showed that there is benefit from returning a pte_t* in the case of p*d_none(). The fault handling code in hugetlb_fault() can handle p*d_none() entries and saves an extra round trip to huge_pte_alloc(). Other callers of huge_pte_offset() should be ok as well.

mm/mremap: fail map duplication attempts for private mappings
mremap will attempt to create a 'duplicate' mapping if old_size == 0 is specified. In the case of private mappings, mremap will actually create a fresh separate private mapping unrelated to the original. This does not fit with the design semantics of mremap as the intention is to create a new mapping based on the original. Therefore, return EINVAL in the case where an attempt is made to duplicate a private mapping. Also, print a warning message (once) if such an attempt is made.

mm, page_owner: don't grab zone->lock for init_pages_in_zone()
init_pages_in_zone() is run under zone->lock, which means a long lock time and disabled interrupts on large machines. This is currently not an issue since it runs early in boot, but a later patch will change that. However, like other pfn scanners, we don't actually need zone->lock even when other cpus are running. The only potentially dangerous operation here is reading bogus buddy page owner due to race, and we already know how to handle that. The worst that can happen is that we skip some early allocated pages, which should not affect the debugging power of page_owner noticeably.
