If we fail to allocate from the current node's stock, we look for free
objects on other nodes before calling the page allocator (see
get_any_partial). While checking other nodes we respect cpuset
constraints by calling cpuset_zone_allowed. We enforce hardwall check.
As a result, we will fallback to the page allocator even if there are some
pages cached on other nodes, but the current cpuset doesn't have them set.
However, the page allocator uses softwall check for kernel allocations,
so it may allocate from one of the other nodes in this case.
Therefore we should use softwall cpuset check in get_any_partial to
conform with the cpuset check in the page allocator.

fallback_alloc is called on kmalloc if the preferred node doesn't have
free or partial slabs and there's no pages on the node's free list
(GFP_THISNODE allocations fail). Before invoking the reclaimer it tries
to locate a free or partial slab on other allowed nodes' lists. While
iterating over the preferred node's zonelist it skips those zones which
hardwall cpuset check returns false for. That means that for a task bound
to a specific node using cpusets fallback_alloc will always ignore free
slabs on other nodes and go directly to the reclaimer, which, however, may
allocate from other nodes if cpuset.mem_hardwall is unset (default). As a
result, we may get lists of free slabs grow without bounds on other nodes,
which is bad, because inactive slabs are only evicted by cache_reap at a
very slow rate and cannot be dropped forcefully.
To reproduce the issue, run a process that will walk over a directory tree
with lots of files inside a cpuset bound to a node that constantly
experiences memory pressure. Look at num_slabs vs active_slabs growth as
reported by /proc/slabinfo.
To avoid this we should use softwall cpuset check in fallback_alloc.

When zbud is initialized through the zpool wrapper, pool->ops which
points to user-defined operations is always set regardless of whether it
is specified from the upper layer. This causes zbud_reclaim_page() to
iterate its loop for evicting pool pages out without any gain.
This patch sets the user-defined ops only when it is needed, so that
zbud_reclaim_page() can bail out the reclamation loop earlier if there
is no user-defined operations specified.

I sent a patch [1] for unnecessary check in zsmalloc. And Minchan Kim
found zsmalloc even does not support allocating an obj with the size of
ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE in some situations.
For example:
In system with 64KB PAGE_SIZE and 32 bit of physical addr. Then:
ZS_MIN_ALLOC_SIZE is 32 bytes which is calculated by:
MAX(32, (ZS_MAX_PAGES_PER_ZSPAGE << PAGE_SHIFT >> OBJ_INDEX_BITS))
ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE is 64KB(in current code, is PAGE_SIZE)
ZS_SIZE_CLASS_DELTA is 256 bytes
So, ZS_SIZE_CLASSES = (ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE - ZS_MIN_ALLOC_SIZE) /
ZS_SIZE_CLASS_DELTA + 1
= 256
In zs_create_pool(), the max size obj which can be allocated will be:
ZS_MIN_ALLOC_SIZE + i * ZS_SIZE_CLASS_DELTA = 32 + 255*256 = 65312
We can see that 65312 < 65536 (ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE). So we can NOT
allocate objs with size ZS_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE(65536) which we promise upper
users we can do.

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

The kunmap_atomic should use virtual address getting by kmap_atomic.
However, some pieces of code in zsmalloc uses modified address, not the
one got by kmap_atomic for kunmap_atomic.
It's okay for working because zsmalloc modifies the address inner
PAGE_SIZE bounday so it works with current kmap_atomic's implementation.
But it's still fragile with potential changing of kmap_atomic so let's
correct it.
I got a subtle bug when I implemented a new feature of zsmalloc
(compaction) due to a link's mishandling (the link was over page
boundary). Although it was totally my mistake, it took a while to find
the cause because an unpredictable kmapped address was unmapped causing an
almost random crash.

zsmalloc has many size_classes to reduce fragmentation and they are in 16
bytes unit, for example, 16, 32, 48, etc., if PAGE_SIZE is 4096. And,
zsmalloc has constraint that each zspage has 4 pages at maximum.
In this situation, we can see interesting aspect. Let's think about
size_class for 1488, 1472, ..., 1376. To prevent external fragmentation,
they uses 4 pages per zspage and so all they can contain 11 objects at
maximum.
16384 (4096 * 4) = 1488 * 11 + remains
16384 (4096 * 4) = 1472 * 11 + remains
16384 (4096 * 4) = ...
16384 (4096 * 4) = 1376 * 11 + remains
It means that they have same characteristics and classification between
them isn't needed. If we use one size_class for them, we can reduce
fragementation and save some memory since both the 1488 and 1472 sized
classes can only fit 11 objects into 4 pages, and an object that's 1472
bytes can fit into an object that's 1488 bytes, merging these classes to
always use objects that are 1488 bytes will reduce the total number of
size classes. And reducing the total number of size classes reduces
overall fragmentation, because a wider range of compressed pages can fit
into a single size class, leaving less unused objects in each size class.
For this purpose, this patch implement size_class merging. If there is
size_class that have same pages_per_zspage and same number of objects per
zspage with previous size_class, we don't create new size_class. Instead,
we use previous, same characteristic size_class. With this way, above
example sizes (1488, 1472, ..., 1376) use just one size_class so we can
get much more memory utilization.

Suppose task @t that belongs to a memory cgroup @memcg is going to
allocate an object from a kmem cache @c. The copy of @c corresponding to
@memcg, @mc, is empty. Then if kmem_cache_alloc races with the memory
cgroup destruction we can access the memory cgroup's copy of the cache
after it was destroyed:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
[ current=@t
@mc->memcg_params->nr_pages=0 ]
kmem_cache_alloc(@c):
call memcg_kmem_get_cache(@c);
proceed to allocation from @mc:
alloc a page for @mc:
...
move @t from @memcg
destroy @memcg:
mem_cgroup_css_offline(@memcg):
memcg_unregister_all_caches(@memcg):
kmem_cache_destroy(@mc)
add page to @mc
We could fix this issue by taking a reference to a per-memcg cache, but
that would require adding a per-cpu reference counter to per-memcg caches,
which would look cumbersome.
Instead, let's take a reference to a memory cgroup, which already has a
per-cpu reference counter, in the beginning of kmem_cache_alloc to be
dropped in the end, and move per memcg caches destruction from css offline
to css free. As a side effect, per-memcg caches will be destroyed not one
by one, but all at once when the last page accounted to the memory cgroup
is freed. This doesn't sound as a high price for code readability though.
Note, this patch does add some overhead to the kmem_cache_alloc hot path,
but it is pretty negligible - it's just a function call plus a per cpu
counter decrement, which is comparable to what we already have in
memcg_kmem_get_cache. Besides, it's only relevant if there are memory
cgroups with kmem accounting enabled. I don't think we can find a way to
handle this race w/o it, because alloc_page called from kmem_cache_alloc
may sleep so we can't flush all pending kmallocs w/o reference counting.

oom_kill.c assumes that PF_EXITING task should exit and free the memory
soon. This is wrong in many ways and one important case is the coredump.
A task can sleep in exit_mm() "forever" while the coredumping sub-thread
can need more memory.
Change the PF_EXITING checks to take SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP into account,
we add the new trivial helper for that.
Note: this is only the first step, this patch doesn't try to solve other
problems. The SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP check is obviously racy, a task can
participate in coredump after it was already observed in PF_EXITING state,
so TIF_MEMDIE (which also blocks oom-killer) still can be wrongly set.
fatal_signal_pending() can be true because of SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP so
out_of_memory() and mem_cgroup_out_of_memory() shouldn't blindly trust it.
And even the name/usage of the new helper is confusing, an exiting thread
can only free its ->mm if it is the only/last task in thread group.

Page migration's __unmap_and_move(), and rmap's try_to_unmap(), were
created for use on pages almost certainly mapped into userspace. But
nowadays compaction often applies them to unmapped page cache pages: which
may exacerbate contention on i_mmap_rwsem quite unnecessarily, since
try_to_unmap_file() makes no preliminary page_mapped() check.
Now check page_mapped() in __unmap_and_move(); and avoid repeating the
same overhead in rmap_walk_file() - don't remove_migration_ptes() when we
never inserted any.
(The PageAnon(page) comment blocks now look even sillier than before, but
clean that up on some other occasion. And note in passing that
try_to_unmap_one() does not use a migration entry when PageSwapCache, so
remove_migration_ptes() will then not update that swap entry to newpage
pte: not a big deal, but something else to clean up later.)
Davidlohr remarked in "mm,fs: introduce helpers around the i_mmap_mutex"
conversion to i_mmap_rwsem, that "The biggest winner of these changes is
migration": a part of the reason might be all of that unnecessary taking
of i_mmap_mutex in page migration; and it's rather a shame that I didn't
get around to sending this patch in before his - this one is much less
useful after Davidlohr's conversion to rwsem, but still good.

The slab shrinkers are currently invoked from the zonelist walkers in
kswapd, direct reclaim, and zone reclaim, all of which roughly gauge the
eligible LRU pages and assemble a nodemask to pass to NUMA-aware
shrinkers, which then again have to walk over the nodemask. This is
redundant code, extra runtime work, and fairly inaccurate when it comes to
the estimation of actually scannable LRU pages. The code duplication will
only get worse when making the shrinkers cgroup-aware and requiring them
to have out-of-band cgroup hierarchy walks as well.
Instead, invoke the shrinkers from shrink_zone(), which is where all
reclaimers end up, to avoid this duplication.
Take the count for eligible LRU pages out of get_scan_count(), which
considers many more factors than just the availability of swap space, like
zone_reclaimable_pages() currently does. Accumulate the number over all
visited lruvecs to get the per-zone value.
Some nodes have multiple zones due to memory addressing restrictions. To
avoid putting too much pressure on the shrinkers, only invoke them once
for each such node, using the class zone of the allocation as the pivot
zone.
For now, this integrates the slab shrinking better into the reclaim logic
and gets rid of duplicative invocations from kswapd, direct reclaim, and
zone reclaim. It also prepares for cgroup-awareness, allowing
memcg-capable shrinkers to be added at the lruvec level without much
duplication of both code and runtime work.
This changes kswapd behavior, which used to invoke the shrinkers for each
zone, but with scan ratios gathered from the entire node, resulting in
meaningless pressure quantities on multi-zone nodes.
Zone reclaim behavior also changes. It used to shrink slabs until the
same amount of pages were shrunk as were reclaimed from the LRUs. Now it
merely invokes the shrinkers once with the zone's scan ratio, which makes
the shrinkers go easier on caches that implement aging and would prefer
feeding back pressure from recently used slab objects to unused LRU pages.

This patch fixes up this situation by setting fake owner information
immediately after page extension is initialized. Information doesn't tell
the right owner, but, at least, it can tell whether page is allocated or
not, more correctly.
On my testing, this patch catches 13343 early allocated pages, although
they are mostly allocated from page extension feature. Anyway, after
then, there is no page left that it is allocated and has no page owner
flag.

This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago. It
is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it
remain as is. Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak
or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature.
This functionality help us to know who allocates the page. When
allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra
memory. Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and
analyze it from this stored information.
In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in
struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of
struct page. It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime
without considerable memory waste.
Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free,
using it to analyze page owner is rather complex. We need to enlarge the
trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched.
And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later
analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather
than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug.
Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes. For
example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this
patch. And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature
using this interface.
I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature,
but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history. Sorry about that.

Now, we have prepared to avoid using debug-pagealloc in boottime. So
introduce new kernel-parameter to disable debug-pagealloc in boottime, and
makes related functions to be disabled in this case.
Only non-intuitive part is change of guard page functions. Because guard
page is effective only if debug-pagealloc is enabled, turning off
according to debug-pagealloc is reasonable thing to do.

Until now, debug-pagealloc needs extra flags in struct page, so we need to
recompile whole source code when we decide to use it. This is really
painful, because it takes some time to recompile and sometimes rebuild is
not possible due to third party module depending on struct page. So, we
can't use this good feature in many cases.
Now, we have the page extension feature that allows us to insert extra
flags to outside of struct page. This gets rid of third party module
issue mentioned above. And, this allows us to determine if we need extra
memory for this page extension in boottime. With these property, we can
avoid using debug-pagealloc in boottime with low computational overhead in
the kernel built with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC. This will help our
development process greatly.
This patch is the preparation step to achive above goal. debug-pagealloc
originally uses extra field of struct page, but, after this patch, it will
use field of struct page_ext. Because memory for page_ext is allocated
later than initialization of page allocator in CONFIG_SPARSEMEM, we should
disable debug-pagealloc feature temporarily until initialization of
page_ext. This patch implements this.

When we debug something, we'd like to insert some information to every
page. For this purpose, we sometimes modify struct page itself. But,
this has drawbacks. First, it requires re-compile. This makes us
hesitate to use the powerful debug feature so development process is
slowed down. And, second, sometimes it is impossible to rebuild the
kernel due to third party module dependency. At third, system behaviour
would be largely different after re-compile, because it changes size of
struct page greatly and this structure is accessed by every part of
kernel. Keeping this as it is would be better to reproduce errornous
situation.
This feature is intended to overcome above mentioned problems. This
feature allocates memory for extended data per page in certain place
rather than the struct page itself. This memory can be accessed by the
accessor functions provided by this code. During the boot process, it
checks whether allocation of huge chunk of memory is needed or not. If
not, it avoids allocating memory at all. With this advantage, we can
include this feature into the kernel in default and can avoid rebuild and
solve related problems.
Until now, memcg uses this technique. But, now, memcg decides to embed
their variable to struct page itself and it's code to extend struct page
has been removed. I'd like to use this code to develop debug feature, so
this patch resurrect it.
To help these things to work well, this patch introduces two callbacks for
clients. One is the need callback which is mandatory if user wants to
avoid useless memory allocation at boot-time. The other is optional, init
callback, which is used to do proper initialization after memory is
allocated. Detailed explanation about purpose of these functions is in
code comment. Please refer it.
Others are completely same with previous extension code in memcg.

Also, remove the memcg_stop/resume_kmem_account helpers - it is clearer to

__memcg_kmem_get_cache can recurse if it calls kmalloc (which it does if
the cgroup's kmem cache doesn't exist), because kmalloc may call
__memcg_kmem_get_cache internally again. To avoid the recursion, we use
the task_struct->memcg_kmem_skip_account flag.
However, there's no need checking the flag in memcg_kmem_newpage_charge,
because there's no way how this function could result in recursion, if
called from memcg_kmem_get_cache. So let's remove the redundant code.

task_struct->memcg_kmem_skip_account was initially introduced to avoid
recursion during kmem cache creation: memcg_kmem_get_cache, which is
called by kmem_cache_alloc to determine the per-memcg cache to account
allocation to, may issue lazy cache creation if the needed cache doesn't
exist, which means issuing yet another kmem_cache_alloc. We can't just
pass a flag to the nested kmem_cache_alloc disabling kmem accounting,
because there are hidden allocations, e.g. in INIT_WORK. So we
introduced a flag on the task_struct, memcg_kmem_skip_account, making
memcg_kmem_get_cache return immediately.
By its nature, the flag may also be used to disable accounting for
allocations shared among different cgroups, and currently it is used this
way in memcg_activate_kmem. Using it like this looks like abusing it to
me. If we want to disable accounting for some allocations (which we will
definitely want one day), we should either add GFP_NO_MEMCG or GFP_MEMCG
flag in order to blacklist/whitelist some allocations.
For now, let's simply remove memcg_stop/resume_kmem_account from
memcg_activate_kmem.

The alignment in cma_alloc() was done w.r.t. the bitmap. This is a
problem when, for example:
- a device requires 16M (order 12) alignment
- the CMA region is not 16 M aligned
In such a case, can result with the CMA region starting at, say,
0x2f800000 but any allocation you make from there will be aligned from
there. Requesting an allocation of 32 M with 16 M alignment will result
in an allocation from 0x2f800000 to 0x31800000, which doesn't work very
well if your strange device requires 16M alignment.
Change to use bitmap_find_next_zero_area_off() to account for the
difference in alignment at reserve-time and alloc-time.

The i_mmap_mutex is a close cousin of the anon vma lock, both protecting
similar data, one for file backed pages and the other for anon memory. To
this end, this lock can also be a rwsem. In addition, there are some
important opportunities to share the lock when there are no tree
modifications.
This conversion is straightforward. For now, all users take the write
lock.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
"Some nice cleanups like removing bootmem, and removal of
__get_cpu_var().
There is one patch to mm/gup.c. This is the generic GUP
implementation, but is only used by us and arm(64). We have an ack
from Steve Capper, and although we didn't get an ack from Andrew he
told us to take the patch through the powerpc tree.
There's one cxl patch. This is in drivers/misc, but Greg said he was
happy for us to manage fixes for it.
There is an infrastructure patch to support an IPMI driver for OPAL.
There is also an RTC driver for OPAL. We weren't able to get any
response from the RTC maintainer, Alessandro Zummo, so in the end we
just merged the driver.

Two patches for the memory management with changes to common code.
For KVM mm_forbids_zeropage is added which disables the empty zero

Memory cgroups used to have 5 per-page pointers. To allow users to
disable that amount of overhead during runtime, those pointers were
allocated in a separate array, with a translation layer between them and
struct page.
There is now only one page pointer remaining: the memcg pointer, that
indicates which cgroup the page is associated with when charged. The
complexity of runtime allocation and the runtime translation overhead is
no longer justified to save that *potential* 0.19% of memory. With
CONFIG_SLUB, page->mem_cgroup actually sits in the doubleword padding
after the page->private member and doesn't even increase struct page,
and then this patch actually saves space. Remaining users that care can
still compile their kernels without CONFIG_MEMCG.

Since commit d7365e783e ("mm: memcontrol: fix missed end-writeback
page accounting") mem_cgroup_end_page_stat consumes locked and flags
variables directly rather than via pointers which might trigger C
undefined behavior as those variables are initialized only in the slow
path of mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat.
Although mem_cgroup_end_page_stat handles parameters correctly and
touches them only when they hold a sensible value it is caller which
loads a potentially uninitialized value which then might allow compiler
to do crazy things.
I haven't seen any warning from gcc and it seems that the current
version (4.9) doesn't exploit this type undefined behavior but Sasha has
reported the following:
UBSan: Undefined behaviour in mm/rmap.c:1084:2

While moving charges from one memcg to another, page stat updates must
acquire the old memcg's move_lock to prevent double accounting. That
situation is denoted by an increased memcg->move_accounting. However, the
charge moving code declares this way too early for now, even before
summing up the RSS and pre-allocating destination charges.
Shorten this slowpath mode by increasing memcg->move_accounting only right
before walking the task's address space with the intention of actually
moving the pages.

Let's use generic slab_start/next/stop for showing memcg caches info. In
contrast to the current implementation, this will work even if all memcg
caches' info doesn't fit into a seq buffer (a page), plus it simply looks
neater.
Actually, the main reason I do this isn't mere cleanup. I'm going to zap
the memcg_slab_caches list, because I find it useless provided we have the
slab_caches list, and this patch is a step in this direction.
It should be noted that before this patch an attempt to read
memory.kmem.slabinfo of a cgroup that doesn't have kmem limit set resulted
in -EIO, while after this patch it will silently show nothing except the
header, but I don't think it will frustrate anyone.

mem_cgroup_reclaimable() checks whether a cgroup has reclaimable pages on
*any* NUMA node. However, the only place where it's called is
mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim(), which tries to reclaim memory from a *specific*
zone. So the way it is used is incorrect - it will return true even if
the cgroup doesn't have pages on the zone we're scanning.
I think we can get rid of this check completely, because
mem_cgroup_shrink_node_zone(), which is called by
mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim() if mem_cgroup_reclaimable() returns true, is
equivalent to shrink_lruvec(), which exits almost immediately if the
lruvec passed to it is empty. So there's no need to optimize anything
here. Besides, we don't have such a check in the general scan path
(shrink_zone) either.

Because this is the last page_cgroup flag, this patch reduces the memcg

This patch (of 4):

Commit 7512102cf6 ("memcg: fix GPF when cgroup removal races with last

prevent a crash where an anon page gets uncharged on unmap, the memcg is
released, and then the final LRU isolation on free dereferences the
stale pc->mem_cgroup pointer.
But since commit 0a31bc97c8 ("mm: memcontrol: rewrite uncharge API"),
pages are only uncharged AFTER that final LRU isolation, which
guarantees the memcg's lifetime until then. pc->mem_cgroup now only
needs to be reset for swapcache readahead pages.

If we fail to reclaim anything from a cgroup during a soft reclaim pass
we want to get the next largest cgroup exceeding its soft limit. To
achieve this, we should obviously remove the current group from the tree

The goal of memory compaction is to create high-order freepages through
page migration. Page migration however puts pages on the per-cpu lru_add
cache, which is later flushed to per-cpu pcplists, and only after pcplists
are drained the pages can actually merge. This can happen due to the
per-cpu caches becoming full through further freeing, or explicitly.
During direct compaction, it is useful to do the draining explicitly so
that pages merge as soon as possible and compaction can detect success
immediately and keep the latency impact at minimum. However the current
implementation is far from ideal. Draining is done only in
__alloc_pages_direct_compact(), after all zones were already compacted,
and the decisions to continue or stop compaction in individual zones was
done without the last batch of migrations being merged. It is also
missing the draining of lru_add cache before the pcplists.
This patch moves the draining for direct compaction into compact_zone().
It adds the missing lru_cache draining and uses the newly introduced
single zone pcplists draining to reduce overhead and avoid impact on
unrelated zones. Draining is only performed when it can actually lead to
merging of a page of desired order (passed by cc->order). This means it
is only done when migration occurred in the previously scanned cc->order
aligned block(s) and the migration scanner is now pointing to the next
cc->order aligned block.
The patch has been tested with stress-highalloc benchmark from mmtests.
Although overal allocation success rates of the benchmark were not
affected, the number of detected compaction successes has doubled. This
suggests that allocations were previously successful due to implicit
merging caused by background activity, making a later allocation attempt
succeed immediately, but not attributing the success to compaction. Since
stress-highalloc always tries to allocate almost the whole memory, it
cannot show the improvement in its reported success rate metric. However
after this patch, compaction should detect success and terminate earlier,
reducing the direct compaction latencies in a real scenario.

Compaction caches the migration and free scanner positions between
compaction invocations, so that the whole zone gets eventually scanned and
there is no bias towards the initial scanner positions at the
beginning/end of the zone.
The cached positions are continuously updated as scanners progress and the
updating stops as soon as a page is successfully isolated. The reasoning
behind this is that a pageblock where isolation succeeded is likely to
succeed again in near future and it should be worth revisiting it.
However, the downside is that potentially many pages are rescanned without
successful isolation. At worst, there might be a page where isolation
from LRU succeeds but migration fails (potentially always). So upon
encountering this page, cached position would always stop being updated
for no good reason. It might have been useful to let such page be
rescanned with sync compaction after async one failed, but this is now
handled by caching scanner position for async and sync mode separately
since commit 35979ef339 ("mm, compaction: add per-zone migration pfn
cache for async compaction").
After this patch, cached positions are updated unconditionally. In
stress-highalloc benchmark, this has decreased the numbers of scanned
pages by few percent, without affecting allocation success rates.
To prevent free scanner from leaving free pages behind after they are
returned due to page migration failure, the cached scanner pfn is changed
to point to the pageblock of the returned free page with the highest pfn,
before leaving compact_zone().

Deferred compaction is employed to avoid compacting zone where sync direct
compaction has recently failed. As such, it makes sense to only defer
when a full zone was scanned, which is when compact_zone returns with
COMPACT_COMPLETE. It's less useful to defer when compact_zone returns
with apparent success (COMPACT_PARTIAL), followed by a watermark check
failure, which can happen due to parallel allocation activity. It also
does not make much sense to defer compaction which was completely skipped
(COMPACT_SKIP) for being unsuitable in the first place.
This patch therefore makes deferred compaction trigger only when
COMPACT_COMPLETE is returned from compact_zone(). Results of
stress-highalloc becnmark show the difference is within measurement error,
so the issue is rather cosmetic.

Since commit 53853e2d2b ("mm, compaction: defer each zone individually
instead of preferred zone"), compaction is deferred for each zone where
sync direct compaction fails, and reset where it succeeds. However, it
was observed that for DMA zone compaction often appeared to succeed
while subsequent allocation attempt would not, due to different outcome
of watermark check.
In order to properly defer compaction in this zone, the candidate zone
has to be passed back to __alloc_pages_direct_compact() and compaction
deferred in the zone after the allocation attempt fails.
The large source of mismatch between watermark check in compaction and
allocation was the lack of alloc_flags and classzone_idx values in
compaction, which has been fixed in the previous patch. So with this
problem fixed, we can simplify the code by removing the candidate_zone
parameter and deferring in __alloc_pages_direct_compact().
After this patch, the compaction activity during stress-highalloc
benchmark is still somewhat increased, but it's negligible compared to the
increase that occurred without the better watermark checking. This
suggests that it is still possible to apparently succeed in compaction but
fail to allocate, possibly due to parallel allocation activity.

Compaction relies on zone watermark checks for decisions such as if it's
worth to start compacting in compaction_suitable() or whether compaction
should stop in compact_finished(). The watermark checks take
classzone_idx and alloc_flags parameters, which are related to the memory
allocation request. But from the context of compaction they are currently
passed as 0, including the direct compaction which is invoked to satisfy
the allocation request, and could therefore know the proper values.
The lack of proper values can lead to mismatch between decisions taken
during compaction and decisions related to the allocation request. Lack
of proper classzone_idx value means that lowmem_reserve is not taken into
account. This has manifested (during recent changes to deferred
compaction) when DMA zone was used as fallback for preferred Normal zone.
compaction_suitable() without proper classzone_idx would think that the
watermarks are already satisfied, but watermark check in
get_page_from_freelist() would fail. Because of this problem, deferring
compaction has extra complexity that can be removed in the following
patch.
The issue (not confirmed in practice) with missing alloc_flags is opposite
in nature. For allocations that include ALLOC_HIGH, ALLOC_HIGHER or
ALLOC_CMA in alloc_flags (the last includes all MOVABLE allocations on
CMA-enabled systems) the watermark checking in compaction with 0 passed
will be stricter than in get_page_from_freelist(). In these cases
compaction might be running for a longer time than is really needed.
Another issue compaction_suitable() is that the check for "does the zone
need compaction at all?" comes only after the check "does the zone have
enough free free pages to succeed compaction". The latter considers extra
pages for migration and can therefore in some situations fail and return
COMPACT_SKIPPED, although the high-order allocation would succeed and we
should return COMPACT_PARTIAL.
This patch fixes these problems by adding alloc_flags and classzone_idx to
struct compact_control and related functions involved in direct compaction
and watermark checking. Where possible, all other callers of
compaction_suitable() pass proper values where those are known. This is
currently limited to classzone_idx, which is sometimes known in kswapd
context. However, the direct reclaim callers should_continue_reclaim()
and compaction_ready() do not currently know the proper values, so the
coordination between reclaim and compaction may still not be as accurate
as it could. This can be fixed later, if it's shown to be an issue.
Additionaly the checks in compact_suitable() are reordered to address the
second issue described above.
The effect of this patch should be slightly better high-order allocation
success rates and/or less compaction overhead, depending on the type of
allocations and presence of CMA. It allows simplifying deferred
compaction code in a followup patch.
When testing with stress-highalloc, there was some slight improvement
(which might be just due to variance) in success rates of non-THP-like
allocations.

The functions for draining per-cpu pages back to buddy allocators
currently always operate on all zones. There are however several cases
where the drain is only needed in the context of a single zone, and
spilling other pcplists is a waste of time both due to the extra
spilling and later refilling.
This patch introduces new zone pointer parameter to drain_all_pages()
and changes the dummy parameter of drain_local_pages() to be also a zone
pointer. When NULL is passed, the functions operate on all zones as
usual. Passing a specific zone pointer reduces the work to the single
zone.
All callers are updated to pass the NULL pointer in this patch.
Conversion to single zone (where appropriate) is done in further
patches.

On cgroup deletion, outstanding page cache charges are moved to the parent
group so that they're not lost and can be reclaimed during pressure
on/inside said parent. But this reparenting is fairly tricky and its
synchroneous nature has led to several lock-ups in the past.
Since c2931b70a3 ("cgroup: iterate cgroup_subsys_states directly") css
iterators now also include offlined css, so memcg iterators can be changed
to include offlined children during reclaim of a group, and leftover cache
can just stay put.
There is a slight change of behavior in that charges of deleted groups no
longer show up as local charges in the parent. But they are still

Introduce a new lockless word-sized page counter API, then change all
memory accounting over to it. The translation from and to bytes then only
happens when interfacing with userspace.

On top of improved scalability, this also gets rid of the icky long long
types in the very heart of memcg, which is great for 32 bit and also makes
the code a lot more readable.
Notable differences between the old and new API:
- res_counter_charge() and res_counter_charge_nofail() become
page_counter_try_charge() and page_counter_charge() resp. to match
the more common kernel naming scheme of try_do()/do()
- res_counter_uncharge_until() is only ever used to cancel a local
counter and never to uncharge bigger segments of a hierarchy, so
it's replaced by the simpler page_counter_cancel()
- res_counter_set_limit() is replaced by page_counter_limit(), which
expects its callers to serialize against themselves
- res_counter_memparse_write_strategy() is replaced by
page_counter_limit(), which rounds down to the nearest page size -
rather than up. This is more reasonable for explicitely requested
hard upper limits.
- to keep charging light-weight, page_counter_try_charge() charges
speculatively, only to roll back if the result exceeds the limit.
Because of this, a failing bigger charge can temporarily lock out
smaller charges that would otherwise succeed. The error is bounded
to the difference between the smallest and the biggest possible
charge size, so for memcg, this means that a failing THP charge can
send base page charges into reclaim upto 2MB (4MB) before the limit
would have been reached. This should be acceptable.

Unlike SLUB, sometimes, object isn't started at the beginning of the slab
in the SLAB. This causes the unalignment problem when after slab merging
is supported by commit 12220dea07 ("mm/slab: support slab merge").
Alignment mismatch check is introduced ("mm/slab: fix unalignment problem
on Malta with EVA due to slab merge") to prevent merge in this case.
This causes undesirable result that merging happens between infrequently
used kmem_caches if there are kmem_caches with same size and is 256 bytes,
are merged into pool_workqueue rather than kmalloc-256, because
kmem_caches for kmalloc are at the tail of the list.
To prevent this situation, this patch reverses iteration order in
find_mergeable() to find frequently used kmem_caches. This change helps
to merge kmem_cache to frequently used kmem_caches, such as kmalloc
kmem_caches.

Currently we print the slabinfo header in the seq start method, which
makes it unusable for showing leaks, so we have leaks_show, which does
practically the same as s_show except it doesn't show the header.
However, we can print the header in the seq show method - we only need
to check if the current element is the first on the list. This will
allow us to use the same set of seq iterators for both leaks and
slabinfo reporting, which is nice.

The bounds check for nodeid in ____cache_alloc_node gives false
positives on machines where the node IDs are not contiguous, leading to
a panic at boot time. For example, on a POWER8 machine the node IDs are
typically 0, 1, 16 and 17. This means that num_online_nodes() returns
4, so when ____cache_alloc_node is called with nodeid = 16 the VM_BUG_ON
triggers, like this:
kernel BUG at /home/paulus/kernel/kvm/mm/slab.c:3079!
Call Trace:
.____cache_alloc_node+0x5c/0x270 (unreliable)

.kmem_cache_init+0x1dc/0x258
.start_kernel+0x2a0/0x568
start_here_common+0x20/0xa8
To fix this, we instead compare the nodeid with MAX_NUMNODES, and
additionally make sure it isn't negative (since nodeid is an int). The
check is there mainly to protect the array dereference in the get_node()
call in the next line, and the array being dereferenced is of size
MAX_NUMNODES. If the nodeid is in range but invalid (for example if the
node is off-line), the BUG_ON in the next line will catch that.

Andrew Morton noticed that the error return from anon_vma_clone() was
being dropped and replaced with -ENOMEM (which is not itself a bug
because the only error return value from anon_vma_clone() is -ENOMEM).
I did an audit of callers of anon_vma_clone() and discovered an actual
bug where the error return was being lost. In __split_vma(), between
Linux 3.11 and 3.12 the code was changed so the err variable is used
before the call to anon_vma_clone() and the default initial value of
-ENOMEM is overwritten. So a failure of anon_vma_clone() will return
success since err at this point is now zero.
Below is a patch which fixes this bug and also propagates the error
return value from anon_vma_clone() in all cases.

I've been seeing swapoff hangs in recent testing: it's cycling around
trying unsuccessfully to find an mm for some remaining pages of swap.
I have been exercising swap and page migration more heavily recently,
and now notice a long-standing error in copy_one_pte(): it's trying to
add dst_mm to swapoff's mmlist when it finds a swap entry, but is doing
so even when it's a migration entry or an hwpoison entry.
Which wouldn't matter much, except it adds dst_mm next to src_mm,
assuming src_mm is already on the mmlist: which may not be so. Then if
pages are later swapped out from dst_mm, swapoff won't be able to find
where to replace them.
There's already a !non_swap_entry() test for stats: move that up before
the swap_duplicate() and the addition to mmlist.

If a frontswap dup-store failed, it should invalidate the expired page

Such as:

2. store a swap page(version_1) to entry A, success
3. dup-store a newer page(version_2) to the same entry A, fail
4. use __swap_writepage() write version_2 page to swapfile, success
5. zswap do shrink, writeback version_1 page to swapfile
6. version_2 page is overwrited by version_1, data corrupt.
This patch fixes this issue by invalidating expired data immediately

The previous patch allocates bounds tables on-demand. As noted in
an earlier description, these can add up to *HUGE* amounts of
memory. This has caused OOMs in practice when running tests.
This patch adds support for freeing bounds tables when they are no
longer in use.
There are two types of mappings in play when unmapping tables:
1. The mapping with the actual data, which userspace is
munmap()ing or brk()ing away, etc...
2. The mapping for the bounds table *backing* the data
(is tagged with VM_MPX, see the patch "add MPX specific
mmap interface").
If userspace use the prctl() indroduced earlier in this patchset
to enable the management of bounds tables in kernel, when it
unmaps the first type of mapping with the actual data, the kernel
needs to free the mapping for the bounds table backing the data.
This patch hooks in at the very end of do_unmap() to do so.
We look at the addresses being unmapped and find the bounds
directory entries and tables which cover those addresses. If
an entire table is unused, we clear associated directory entry
and free the table.
Once we unmap the bounds table, we would have a bounds directory
entry pointing at empty address space. That address space might
now be allocated for some other (random) use, and the MPX
hardware might now try to walk it as if it were a bounds table.
That would be bad. So any unmapping of an enture bounds table
has to be accompanied by a corresponding write to the bounds
directory entry to invalidate it. That write to the bounds
directory can fault, which causes the following problem:
Since we are doing the freeing from munmap() (and other paths
like it), we hold mmap_sem for write. If we fault, the page
fault handler will attempt to acquire mmap_sem for read and
we will deadlock. To avoid the deadlock, we pagefault_disable()
when touching the bounds directory entry and use a
get_user_pages() to resolve the fault.
The unmapping of bounds tables happends under vm_munmap(). We
also (indirectly) call vm_munmap() to _do_ the unmapping of the
bounds tables. We avoid unbounded recursion by disallowing
freeing of bounds tables *for* bounds tables. This would not
occur normally, so should not have any practical impact. Being
strict about it here helps ensure that we do not have an
exploitable stack overflow.

On architectures with hardware broadcasting of TLB invalidation messages
, it makes sense to reduce the range of the mmu_gather structure when
unmapping page ranges based on the dirty address information passed to
tlb_remove_tlb_entry.
arm64 already does this by directly manipulating the start/end fields
of the gather structure, but this confuses the generic code which
does not expect these fields to change and can end up calculating
invalid, negative ranges when forcing a flush in zap_pte_range.
This patch moves the minimal range calculation out of the arm64 code
and into the generic implementation, simplifying zap_pte_range in the
process (which no longer needs to care about start/end, since they will
point to the appropriate ranges already). With the range being tracked
by core code, the need_flush flag is dropped in favour of checking that
the end of the range has actually been set.

In free_area_init_core(), zone->managed_pages is set to an approximate
value for lowmem, and will be adjusted when the bootmem allocator frees
pages into the buddy system.
But free_area_init_core() is also called by hotadd_new_pgdat() when
hot-adding memory. As a result, zone->managed_pages of the newly added
node's pgdat is set to an approximate value in the very beginning.
Even if the memory on that node has node been onlined,
/sys/device/system/node/nodeXXX/meminfo has wrong value:
hot-add node2 (memory not onlined)
cat /sys/device/system/node/node2/meminfo
Node 2 MemTotal: 33554432 kB
Node 2 MemFree: 0 kB
Node 2 MemUsed: 33554432 kB
Node 2 Active: 0 kB
This patch fixes this problem by reset node managed pages to 0 after
hot-adding a new node.
1. Move reset_managed_pages_done from reset_node_managed_pages() to
reset_all_zones_managed_pages()
2. Make reset_node_managed_pages() non-static
3. Call reset_node_managed_pages() in hotadd_new_pgdat() after pgdat
is initialized

One thing I did in this patch is fixing freepage accounting. If we
clear guard page and link it onto isolate buddy list, we should not
increase freepage count. This patch adds conditional branch to skip
counting in this case. Without this patch, this overcounting happens
frequently if guard order is set and CMA is used.
Another thing fixed in this patch is the target to reset order. In
__free_one_page(), we check the buddy page whether it is a guard page or
not. And, if so, we should clear guard attribute on the buddy page and
reset order of it to 0. But, current code resets original page's order
rather than buddy one's. Maybe, this doesn't have any problem, because
whole merged page's order will be re-assigned soon. But, it is better
to correct code.

Several people have reported occasionally seeing processes stuck in
compact_zone(), even triggering soft lockups, in 3.18-rc2+.
Testing a revert of commit e14c720efd ("mm, compaction: remember
position within pageblock in free pages scanner") fixed the issue,
although the stuck processes do not appear to involve the free scanner.
Finally, by code inspection, the bug was found in isolate_migratepages()
which uses a slightly different condition to detect if the migration and
free scanners have met, than compact_finished(). That has not been a
problem until commit e14c720efd allowed the free scanner position
between individual invocations to be in the middle of a pageblock.
In a relatively rare case, the migration scanner position can end up at
the beginning of a pageblock, with the free scanner position in the
middle of the same pageblock. If it's the migration scanner's turn,
isolate_migratepages() exits immediately (without updating the
position), while compact_finished() decides to continue compaction,
resulting in a potentially infinite loop. The system can recover only
if another process creates enough high-order pages to make the watermark
checks in compact_finished() pass.
This patch fixes the immediate problem by bumping the migration
scanner's position to meet the free scanner in isolate_migratepages(),
when both are within the same pageblock. This causes compact_finished()
to terminate properly. A more robust check in compact_finished() is
planned as a cleanup for better future maintainability.

Having test_pages_isolated failure message as a warning confuses users
into thinking that it is more serious than it really is. In reality, if
called via CMA, allocation will be retried so a single
test_pages_isolated failure does not prevent allocation from succeeding.
Demote the warning message to an info message and reformat it such that
the text "failed" does not appear and instead a less worrying "PFNS
busy" is used.
This message is trivially reproducible on a 10GB x86 machine on 3.16.y

Current pageblock isolation logic could isolate each pageblock
individually. This causes freepage accounting problem if freepage with
pageblock order on isolate pageblock is merged with other freepage on
normal pageblock. We can prevent merging by restricting max order of
merging to pageblock order if freepage is on isolate pageblock.
A side-effect of this change is that there could be non-merged buddy
freepage even if finishing pageblock isolation, because undoing
pageblock isolation is just to move freepage from isolate buddy list to
normal buddy list rather than to consider merging. So, the patch also
makes undoing pageblock isolation consider freepage merge. When
un-isolation, freepage with more than pageblock order and it's buddy are
checked. If they are on normal pageblock, instead of just moving, we
isolate the freepage and free it in order to get merged.

In free_pcppages_bulk(), we use cached migratetype of freepage to
determine type of buddy list where freepage will be added. This
information is stored when freepage is added to pcp list, so if
isolation of pageblock of this freepage begins after storing, this
cached information could be stale. In other words, it has original
migratetype rather than MIGRATE_ISOLATE.
There are two problems caused by this stale information.
One is that we can't keep these freepages from being allocated.
Although this pageblock is isolated, freepage will be added to normal
buddy list so that it could be allocated without any restriction. And
the other problem is incorrect freepage accounting. Freepages on
isolate pageblock should not be counted for number of freepage.
Following is the code snippet in free_pcppages_bulk().
/* MIGRATE_MOVABLE list may include MIGRATE_RESERVEs */
__free_one_page(page, page_to_pfn(page), zone, 0, mt);
trace_mm_page_pcpu_drain(page, 0, mt);
if (likely(!is_migrate_isolate_page(page))) {
__mod_zone_page_state(zone, NR_FREE_PAGES, 1);
if (is_migrate_cma(mt))
__mod_zone_page_state(zone, NR_FREE_CMA_PAGES, 1);
}
As you can see above snippet, current code already handle second
problem, incorrect freepage accounting, by re-fetching pageblock
migratetype through is_migrate_isolate_page(page).
But, because this re-fetched information isn't used for
__free_one_page(), first problem would not be solved. This patch try to
solve this situation to re-fetch pageblock migratetype before
__free_one_page() and to use it for __free_one_page().
In addition to move up position of this re-fetch, this patch use
optimization technique, re-fetching migratetype only if there is isolate
pageblock. Pageblock isolation is rare event, so we can avoid
re-fetching in common case with this optimization.
This patch also correct migratetype of the tracepoint output.

Before describing bugs itself, I first explain definition of freepage.
1. pages on buddy list are counted as freepage.
2. pages on isolate migratetype buddy list are *not* counted as freepage.
3. pages on cma buddy list are counted as CMA freepage, too.
Now, I describe problems and related patch.
Patch 1: There is race conditions on getting pageblock migratetype that
it results in misplacement of freepages on buddy list, incorrect
freepage count and un-availability of freepage.
Patch 2: Freepages on pcp list could have stale cached information to
determine migratetype of buddy list to go. This causes misplacement of
freepages on buddy list and incorrect freepage count.
Patch 4: Merging between freepages on different migratetype of
pageblocks will cause freepages accouting problem. This patch fixes it.
Without patchset [3], above problem doesn't happens on my CMA allocation
test, because CMA reserved pages aren't used at all. So there is no
chance for above race.
With patchset [3], I did simple CMA allocation test and get below
result:
- Virtual machine, 4 cpus, 1024 MB memory, 256 MB CMA reservation
- run kernel build (make -j16) on background
- 30 times CMA allocation(8MB * 30 = 240MB) attempts in 5 sec interval
- Result: more than 5000 freepage count are missed
With patchset [3] and this patchset, I found that no freepage count are
missed so that I conclude that problems are solved.
On my simple memory offlining test, these problems also occur on that
environment, too.
This patch (of 4):
There are two paths to reach core free function of buddy allocator,
__free_one_page(), one is free_one_page()->__free_one_page() and the
other is free_hot_cold_page()->free_pcppages_bulk()->__free_one_page().
Each paths has race condition causing serious problems. At first, this
patch is focused on first type of freepath. And then, following patch
will solve the problem in second type of freepath.
In the first type of freepath, we got migratetype of freeing page
without holding the zone lock, so it could be racy. There are two cases
of this race.
1. pages are added to isolate buddy list after restoring orignal
migratetype
CPU1 CPU2
get migratetype => return MIGRATE_ISOLATE
call free_one_page() with MIGRATE_ISOLATE
grab the zone lock
unisolate pageblock
release the zone lock
grab the zone lock
call __free_one_page() with MIGRATE_ISOLATE
freepage go into isolate buddy list,
although pageblock is already unisolated
This may cause two problems. One is that we can't use this page anymore
until next isolation attempt of this pageblock, because freepage is on
isolate buddy list. The other is that freepage accouting could be wrong
due to merging between different buddy list. Freepages on isolate buddy
list aren't counted as freepage, but ones on normal buddy list are
counted as freepage. If merge happens, buddy freepage on normal buddy
list is inevitably moved to isolate buddy list without any consideration
of freepage accouting so it could be incorrect.
2. pages are added to normal buddy list while pageblock is isolated.
It is similar with above case.
This also may cause two problems. One is that we can't keep these
freepages from being allocated. Although this pageblock is isolated,
freepage would be added to normal buddy list so that it could be
allocated without any restriction. And the other problem is same as
case 1, that it, incorrect freepage accouting.
This race condition would be prevented by checking migratetype again
with holding the zone lock. Because it is somewhat heavy operation and
it isn't needed in common case, we want to avoid rechecking as much as
possible. So this patch introduce new variable, nr_isolate_pageblock in
struct zone to check if there is isolated pageblock. With this, we can
avoid to re-check migratetype in common case and do it only if there is
isolated pageblock or migratetype is MIGRATE_ISOLATE. This solve above
mentioned problems.
Changes from v3:
Add one more check in free_one_page() that checks whether migratetype is
MIGRATE_ISOLATE or not. Without this, abovementioned case 1 could happens.

Commit 7d49d88683 ("mm, compaction: reduce zone checking frequency in
the migration scanner") has a side-effect that changes the iteration
range calculation. Before the change, block_end_pfn is calculated using
start_pfn, but now it blindly adds pageblock_nr_pages to the previous
value.
This causes the problem that isolation_start_pfn is larger than
block_end_pfn when we isolate the page with more than pageblock order.
In this case, isolation would fail due to an invalid range parameter.
To prevent this, this patch implements skipping the range until a proper
target pageblock is met. Without this patch, CMA with more than
pageblock order always fails but with this patch it will succeed.

The branches of the if (i->type & ITER_BVEC) statement in
iov_iter_single_seg_count() are the wrong way around; if ITER_BVEC is
clear then we use i->bvec, when we should be using i->iov. This fixes
it.
In my case, the symptom that this caused was that a KVM guest doing
filesystem operations on a virtual disk would result in one of qemu's
threads on the host going into an infinite loop in
generic_perform_write(). The loop would hit the copied == 0 case and
call iov_iter_single_seg_count() to reduce the number of bytes to try
to process, but because of the error, iov_iter_single_seg_count()
would just return i->count and the loop made no progress and continued
forever.

Pull xfs fixes from Dave Chinner:
"This update fixes a warning in the new pagecache_isize_extended() and
updates some related comments, another fix for zero-range
misbehaviour, and an unforntuately large set of fixes for regressions
in the bulkstat code.
The bulkstat fixes are large but necessary. I wouldn't normally push
such a rework for a -rcX update, but right now xfsdump can silently
create incomplete dumps on 3.17 and it's possible that even xfsrestore
won't notice that the dumps were incomplete. Hence we need to get
this update into 3.17-stable kernels ASAP.
In more detail, the refactoring work I committed in 3.17 has exposed a
major hole in our QA coverage. With both xfsdump (the major user of
bulkstat) and xfsrestore silently ignoring missing files in the
dump/restore process, incomplete dumps were going unnoticed if they
were being triggered. Many of the dump/restore filesets were so small
that they didn't evenhave a chance of triggering the loop iteration
bugs we introduced in 3.17, so we didn't exercise the code
sufficiently, either.
We have already taken steps to improve QA coverage in xfstests to
avoid this happening again, and I've done a lot of manual verification
of dump/restore on very large data sets (tens of millions of inodes)
of the past week to verify this patch set results in bulkstat behaving
the same way as it does on 3.16.
Unfortunately, the fixes are not exactly simple - in tracking down the
problem historic API warts were discovered (e.g xfsdump has been
working around a 20 year old bug in the bulkstat API for the past 10
years) and so that complicated the process of diagnosing and fixing
the problems. i.e. we had to fix bugs in the code as well as
discover and re-introduce the userspace visible API bugs that we
unwittingly "fixed" in 3.17 that xfsdump relied on to work correctly.
Summary:
- incorrect warnings about i_mutex locking in pagecache_isize_extended()
and updates comments to match expected locking
- another zero-range bug fix for stray file size updates
- a bunch of fixes for regression in the bulkstat code introduced in
3.17"

The SLUB cache merges caches with the same size and alignment and there
was long standing bug with this behavior:
- create the cache named "foo"
- create the cache named "bar" (which is merged with "foo")
- delete the cache named "foo" (but it stays allocated because "bar"
uses it)
- create the cache named "foo" again - it fails because the name "foo"
is already used
That bug was fixed in commit 694617474e ("slab_common: fix the check
for duplicate slab names") by not warning on duplicate cache names when
the SLUB subsystem is used.
Recently, cache merging was implemented the with SLAB subsystem too, in
12220dea07 ("mm/slab: support slab merge")). Therefore we need stop
checking for duplicate names even for the SLAB subsystem.
This patch fixes the bug by removing the check.

Commit 0a31bc97c8 ("mm: memcontrol: rewrite uncharge API") changed
page migration to uncharge the old page right away. The page is locked,
unmapped, truncated, and off the LRU, but it could race with writeback
ending, which then doesn't unaccount the page properly:
test_clear_page_writeback() migration
wait_on_page_writeback()
TestClearPageWriteback()
mem_cgroup_migrate()
clear PCG_USED
mem_cgroup_update_page_stat()
if (PageCgroupUsed(pc))
decrease memcg pages under writeback
release pc->mem_cgroup->move_lock
The per-page statistics interface is heavily optimized to avoid a
function call and a lookup_page_cgroup() in the file unmap fast path,
which means it doesn't verify whether a page is still charged before
clearing PageWriteback() and it has to do it in the stat update later.
Rework it so that it looks up the page's memcg once at the beginning of
the transaction and then uses it throughout. The charge will be
verified before clearing PageWriteback() and migration can't uncharge
the page as long as that is still set. The RCU lock will protect the
memcg past uncharge.
As far as losing the optimization goes, the following test results are
from a microbenchmark that maps, faults, and unmaps a 4GB sparse file
three times in a nested fashion, so that there are two negative passes
that don't account but still go through the new transaction overhead.
There is no actual difference:
old: 33.195102545 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.01% )
new: 33.199231369 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.03% )
The time spent in page_remove_rmap()'s callees still adds up to the
same, but the time spent in the function itself seems reduced:

The detaled explanation is as follows:
When hot removing memory, pgdat is set to 0 in try_offline_node(). But
if the pgdat is allocated by bootmem allocator, the clearing step is
skipped.
And when hot adding the same memory, the uninitialized pgdat is reused.
But free_area_init_node() checks wether pgdat is set to zero. As a
result, free_area_init_node() hits WARN_ON().
This patch clears pgdat which is allocated by bootmem allocator in
try_offline_node().

If an anonymous mapping is not allowed to fault thp memory and then
madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) is used after fault, khugepaged will never
collapse this memory into thp memory.
This occurs because the madvise(2) handler for thp, hugepage_madvise(),
clears VM_NOHUGEPAGE on the stack and it isn't stored in vma->vm_flags
until the final action of madvise_behavior(). This causes the
khugepaged_enter_vma_merge() to be a no-op in hugepage_madvise() when
the vma had previously had VM_NOHUGEPAGE set.
Fix this by passing the correct vma flags to the khugepaged mm slot
handler. There's no chance khugepaged can run on this vma until after
madvise_behavior() returns since we hold mm->mmap_sem.
It would be possible to clear VM_NOHUGEPAGE directly from vma->vm_flags
in hugepage_advise(), but I didn't want to introduce special case
behavior into madvise_behavior(). I think it's best to just let it
always set vma->vm_flags itself.

Compound page should be freed by put_page() or free_pages() with correct
order. Not doing so will cause tail pages leaked.
The compound order can be obtained by compound_order() or use
HPAGE_PMD_ORDER in our case. Some people would argue the latter is
faster but I prefer the former which is more general.
This bug was observed not just on our servers (the worst case we saw is
11G leaked on a 48G machine) but also on our workstations running Ubuntu
based distro.
$ cat /proc/vmstat | grep thp_zero_page_alloc
thp_zero_page_alloc 55
thp_zero_page_alloc_failed 0
This means there is (thp_zero_page_alloc - 1) * (2M - 4K) memory leaked.

Commit edc2ca6124 ("mm, compaction: move pageblock checks up from
isolate_migratepages_range()") commonizes isolate_migratepages variants
and make them use isolate_migratepages_block().
isolate_migratepages_block() could stop the execution when enough pages
are isolated, but, there is no code in isolate_migratepages_range() to
handle this case. In the result, even if isolate_migratepages_block()
returns prematurely without checking all pages in the range,
isolate_migratepages_block() is called repeately on the following
pageblock and some pages in the previous range are skipped to check.
Then, CMA is failed frequently due to this fact.
To fix this problem, this patch let isolate_migratepages_range() know
the situation that enough pages are isolated and stop the isolation in
that case.
Note that isolate_migratepages() has no such problem, because, it always
stops the isolation after just one call of isolate_migratepages_block().

This patch add kmemleak_free() into free_page_cgroup(). During page

After that, the freed memory can be allocated again by other subsystems
without killing kmemleak.

When unmapping a range of pages in zap_pte_range, the page being
unmapped is added to an mmu_gather_batch structure for asynchronous
freeing. If we run out of space in the batch structure before the range
has been completely unmapped, then we break out of the loop, force a
TLB flush and free the pages that we have batched so far. If there are
further pages to unmap, then we resume the loop where we left off.
Unfortunately, we forget to update addr when we break out of the loop,
which causes us to truncate the range being invalidated as the end
address is exclusive. When we re-enter the loop at the same address, the
page has already been freed and the pte_present test will fail, meaning
that we do not reconsider the address for invalidation.
This patch fixes the problem by incrementing addr by the PAGE_SIZE
before breaking out of the loop on batch failure.

Current cpuset API for checking if a zone/node is allowed to allocate
from looks rather awkward. We have hardwall and softwall versions of
cpuset_node_allowed with the softwall version doing literally the same
as the hardwall version if __GFP_HARDWALL is passed to it in gfp flags.
If it isn't, the softwall version may check the given node against the
enclosing hardwall cpuset, which it needs to take the callback lock to
do.
Such a distinction was introduced by commit 02a0e53d82 ("cpuset:
rework cpuset_zone_allowed api"). Before, we had the only version with
the __GFP_HARDWALL flag determining its behavior. The purpose of the
commit was to avoid sleep-in-atomic bugs when someone would mistakenly
call the function without the __GFP_HARDWALL flag for an atomic
allocation. The suffixes introduced were intended to make the callers
think before using the function.
However, since the callback lock was converted from mutex to spinlock by
the previous patch, the softwall check function cannot sleep, and these
precautions are no longer necessary.
So let's simplify the API back to the single check.

Commit 95b0e655f9 ("ARM: mm: don't limit default CMA region only to

memory. It relied on commit f7426b983a ("mm: cma: adjust address limit
to avoid hitting low/high memory boundary") to ensure that the reserved
block never crossed the low/high memory boundary. While the
implementation correctly lowered the limit, it failed to consider the
case where the base..limit range crossed the low/high memory boundary
with enough space on each side to reserve the requested size on either
low or high memory.
Rework the base and limit adjustment to fix the problem. The function
now starts by rejecting the reservation altogether for fixed
reservations that cross the boundary, tries to reserve from high memory
first and then falls back to low memory.

Merge tag 'pm+acpi-3.18-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm
Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This is material that didn't make it to my 3.18-rc1 pull request for
various reasons, mostly related to timing and travel (LinuxCon EU /
LPC) plus a couple of fixes for recent bugs.
The only really new thing here is the PM QoS class for memory
bandwidth, but it is simple enough and users of it will be added in
the next cycle. One major change in behavior is that platform devices
enumerated by ACPI will use 32-bit DMA mask by default. Also included
is an ACPICA update to a new upstream release, but that's mostly
cleanups, changes in tools and similar. The rest is fixes and
cleanups mostly.
Specifics:
- Fix for a recent PCI power management change that overlooked the
fact that some IRQ chips might not be able to configure PCIe PME
for system wakeup from Lucas Stach.
- Fix for a bug introduced in 3.17 where acpi_device_wakeup() is
called with a wrong ordering of arguments from Zhang Rui.
- A bunch of intel_pstate driver fixes (all -stable candidates) from
Dirk Brandewie, Gabriele Mazzotta and Pali Rohár.
- Fixes for a rather long-standing problem with the OOM killer and
the freezer that frozen processes killed by the OOM do not actually
release any memory until they are thawed, so OOM-killing them is
rather pointless, with a couple of cleanups on top (Michal Hocko,
Cong Wang, Rafael J Wysocki).
- ACPICA update to upstream release 20140926, inlcuding mostly
cleanups reducing differences between the upstream ACPICA and the
kernel code, tools changes (acpidump, acpiexec) and support for the
_DDN object (Bob Moore, Lv Zheng).
- New PM QoS class for memory bandwidth from Tomeu Vizoso.
- Default 32-bit DMA mask for platform devices enumerated by ACPI
(this change is mostly needed for some drivers development in
progress targeted at 3.19) from Heikki Krogerus.
- ACPI EC driver cleanups, mostly related to debugging, from Lv
Zheng.
- cpufreq-dt driver updates from Thomas Petazzoni.
- powernv cpuidle driver update from Preeti U Murthy"

PM freezer relies on having all tasks frozen by the time devices are
getting frozen so that no task will touch them while they are getting
frozen. But OOM killer is allowed to kill an already frozen task in
order to handle OOM situtation. In order to protect from late wake ups
OOM killer is disabled after all tasks are frozen. This, however, still
keeps a window open when a killed task didn't manage to die by the time
freeze_processes finishes.
Reduce the race window by checking all tasks after OOM killer has been
disabled. This is still not race free completely unfortunately because
oom_killer_disable cannot stop an already ongoing OOM killer so a task
might still wake up from the fridge and get killed without
freeze_processes noticing. Full synchronization of OOM and freezer is,
however, too heavy weight for this highly unlikely case.
Introduce and check oom_kills counter which gets incremented early when
the allocator enters __alloc_pages_may_oom path and only check all the
tasks if the counter changes during the freezing attempt. The counter
is updated so early to reduce the race window since allocator checked
oom_killer_disabled which is set by PM-freezing code. A false positive
will push the PM-freezer into a slow path but that is not a big deal.
Changes since v1
- push the re-check loop out of freeze_processes into
check_frozen_processes and invert the condition to make the code more
readable as per Rafael

x86: Remove set_pmd_pfn
For VMAs that don't want write notifications, PTEs created for read faults
have their write bit set. If the read fault happens after VM_SOFTDIRTY is
cleared, then the PTE's softdirty bit will remain clear after subsequent
writes.
Here's a simple code snippet to demonstrate the bug:
char* m = mmap(NULL, getpagesize(), PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_SHARED, -1, 0);
system("echo 4 > /proc/$PPID/clear_refs"); /* clear VM_SOFTDIRTY */
assert(*m == '\0'); /* new PTE allows write access */
assert(!soft_dirty(x));
*m = 'x'; /* should dirty the page */
assert(soft_dirty(x)); /* fails */
With this patch, write notifications are enabled when VM_SOFTDIRTY is
cleared. Furthermore, to avoid unnecessary faults, write notifications
are disabled when VM_SOFTDIRTY is set.
As a side effect of enabling and disabling write notifications with
care, this patch fixes a bug in mprotect where vm_page_prot bits set by
drivers were zapped on mprotect. An analogous bug was fixed in mmap by
commit c9d0bf2414 ("mm: uncached vma support with writenotify").

The current cma bitmap aligned mask computation is incorrect. It could
cause an unexpected alignment when using cma_alloc() if the wanted align
order is larger than cma->order_per_bit.
Take kvm for example (PAGE_SHIFT = 12), kvm_cma->order_per_bit is set to
6. When kvm_alloc_rma() tries to alloc kvm_rma_pages, it will use 15 as
the expected align value. After using the current implementation however,
we get 0 as cma bitmap aligned mask other than 511.
This patch fixes the cma bitmap aligned mask calculation.

Commit bf0dea23a9 ("mm/slab: use percpu allocator for cpu cache")
changed the allocation method for cpu cache array from slab allocator to
percpu allocator. Alignment should be provided for aligned memory in
percpu allocator case, but, that commit mistakenly set this alignment to
0. So, percpu allocator returns unaligned memory address. It doesn't
cause any problem on x86 which permits unaligned access, but, it causes
the problem on sparc64 which needs strong guarantee of alignment.
Following bug report is reported from David Miller.
I'm getting tons of the following on sparc64:
[603965.383447] Kernel unaligned access at TPC[546b58] free_block+0x98/0x1a0

Pull percpu updates from Tejun Heo:
"A lot of activities on percpu front. Notable changes are...
- percpu allocator now can take @gfp. If @gfp doesn't contain
GFP_KERNEL, it tries to allocate from what's already available to
the allocator and a work item tries to keep the reserve around
certain level so that these atomic allocations usually succeed.
This will replace the ad-hoc percpu memory pool used by
blk-throttle and also be used by the planned blkcg support for
writeback IOs.
Please note that I noticed a bug in how @gfp is interpreted while
preparing this pull request and applied the fix 6ae833c7fe
("percpu: fix how @gfp is interpreted by the percpu allocator")
just now.
- percpu_ref now uses longs for percpu and global counters instead of
ints. It leads to more sparse packing of the percpu counters on
64bit machines but the overhead should be negligible and this
allows using percpu_ref for refcnting pages and in-memory objects
directly.
- The switching between percpu and single counter modes of a
percpu_ref is made independent of putting the base ref and a
percpu_ref can now optionally be initialized in single or killed
mode. This allows avoiding percpu shutdown latency for cases where
the refcounted objects may be synchronously created and destroyed
in rapid succession with only a fraction of them reaching fully
operational status (SCSI probing does this when combined with
blk-mq support). It's also planned to be used to implement forced
single mode to detect underflow more timely for debugging.
There's a separate branch percpu/for-3.18-consistent-ops which cleans
up the duplicate percpu accessors. That branch causes a number of
conflicts with s390 and other trees. I'll send a separate pull
request w/ resolutions once other branches are merged"

For now, there are NCHUNKS of 64 freelists in zbud_pool, the last
unbuddied[63] freelist linked with all zbud pages which have free chunks
of 63. Calculating according to context of num_free_chunks(), our max
chunk number of unbuddied zbud page is 62, so none of zbud pages will be
added/removed in last freelist, but still we will try to find an unbuddied
zbud page in the last unused freelist, it is unneeded.
This patch redefines NCHUNKS to 63 as free chunk number in one zbud page,
hence we can decrease size of zpool and avoid accessing the last unused
freelist whenever failing to allocate zbud from freelist in zbud_alloc.

Change zsmalloc init_zspage() logic to iterate through each object on each
of its pages, checking the offset to verify the object is on the current
page before linking it into the zspage.
The current zsmalloc init_zspage free object linking code has logic that
relies on there only being one page per zspage when PAGE_SIZE is a
multiple of class->size. It calculates the number of objects for the
current page, and iterates through all of them plus one, to account for
the assumed partial object at the end of the page. While this currently
works, the logic can be simplified to just link the object at each
successive offset until the offset is larger than PAGE_SIZE, which does
not rely on PAGE_SIZE being a multiple of class->size.

zs_get_total_size_bytes returns a amount of memory zsmalloc consumed with
*byte unit* but zsmalloc operates *page unit* rather than byte unit so
let's change the API so benefit we could get is that reduce unnecessary
overhead (ie, change page unit with byte unit) in zsmalloc.
Since return type is pages, "zs_get_total_pages" is better than
"zs_get_total_size_bytes".

Currently, zram has no feature to limit memory so theoretically zram can
deplete system memory. Users have asked for a limit several times as even
without exhaustion zram makes it hard to control memory usage of the
platform. This patchset adds the feature.
Patch 1 makes zs_get_total_size_bytes faster because it would be used
frequently in later patches for the new feature.
Patch 2 changes zs_get_total_size_bytes's return unit from bytes to page
so that zsmalloc doesn't need unnecessary operation(ie, << PAGE_SHIFT).
Patch 3 adds new feature. I added the feature into zram layer, not
zsmalloc because limiation is zram's requirement, not zsmalloc so any
other user using zsmalloc(ie, zpool) shouldn't affected by unnecessary
branch of zsmalloc. In future, if every users of zsmalloc want the
feature, then, we could move the feature from client side to zsmalloc
easily but vice versa would be painful.
Patch 4 adds news facility to report maximum memory usage of zram so that
this avoids user polling frequently via /sys/block/zram0/ mem_used_total
and ensures transient max are not missed.
This patch (of 4):
pages_allocated has counted in size_class structure and when user of
zsmalloc want to see total_size_bytes, it should gather all of count from
each size_class to report the sum.
It's not bad if user don't see the value often but if user start to see
the value frequently, it would be not a good deal for performance pov.
This patch moves the count from size_class to zs_pool so it could reduce
memory footprint (from [255 * 8byte] to [sizeof(atomic_long_t)]).

vmstat workers are used for folding counter differentials into the zone,
per node and global counters at certain time intervals. They currently
run at defined intervals on all processors which will cause some holdoff
for processors that need minimal intrusion by the OS.
The current vmstat_update mechanism depends on a deferrable timer firing
every other second by default which registers a work queue item that runs
on the local CPU, with the result that we have 1 interrupt and one
additional schedulable task on each CPU every 2 seconds If a workload
indeed causes VM activity or multiple tasks are running on a CPU, then
there are probably bigger issues to deal with.
However, some workloads dedicate a CPU for a single CPU bound task. This
is done in high performance computing, in high frequency financial
applications, in networking (Intel DPDK, EZchip NPS) and with the advent
of systems with more and more CPUs over time, this may become more and
more common to do since when one has enough CPUs one cares less about
efficiently sharing a CPU with other tasks and more about efficiently
monopolizing a CPU per task.
The difference of having this timer firing and workqueue kernel thread
scheduled per second can be enormous. An artificial test measuring the
worst case time to do a simple "i++" in an endless loop on a bare metal
system and under Linux on an isolated CPU with dynticks and with and
without this patch, have Linux match the bare metal performance (~700
cycles) with this patch and loose by couple of orders of magnitude (~200k
cycles) without it[*]. The loss occurs for something that just calculates
statistics. For networking applications, for example, this could be the
difference between dropping packets or sustaining line rate.
Statistics are important and useful, but it would be great if there would
be a way to not cause statistics gathering produce a huge performance
difference. This patche does just that.
This patch creates a vmstat shepherd worker that monitors the per cpu
differentials on all processors. If there are differentials on a
processor then a vmstat worker local to the processors with the
differentials is created. That worker will then start folding the diffs
in regular intervals. Should the worker find that there is no work to be
done then it will make the shepherd worker monitor the differentials
again.
With this patch it is possible then to have periods longer than
2 seconds without any OS event on a "cpu" (hardware thread).
The patch shows a very minor increased in system performance.

Sasha Levin reported KASAN splash inside isolate_migratepages_range().
Problem is in the function __is_movable_balloon_page() which tests
AS_BALLOON_MAP in page->mapping->flags. This function has no protection
against anonymous pages. As result it tried to check address space flags
inside struct anon_vma.
Further investigation shows more problems in current implementation:
* Special branch in __unmap_and_move() never works:
balloon_page_movable() checks page flags and page_count. In
__unmap_and_move() page is locked, reference counter is elevated, thus
balloon_page_movable() always fails. As a result execution goes to the
normal migration path. virtballoon_migratepage() returns
MIGRATEPAGE_BALLOON_SUCCESS instead of MIGRATEPAGE_SUCCESS,
move_to_new_page() thinks this is an error code and assigns
newpage->mapping to NULL. Newly migrated page lose connectivity with
balloon an all ability for further migration.
* lru_lock erroneously required in isolate_migratepages_range() for
isolation ballooned page. This function releases lru_lock periodically,
this makes migration mostly impossible for some pages.
* balloon_page_dequeue have a tight race with balloon_page_isolate:
balloon_page_isolate could be executed in parallel with dequeue between
picking page from list and locking page_lock. Race is rare because they
use trylock_page() for locking.
This patch fixes all of them.
Instead of fake mapping with special flag this patch uses special state of
page->_mapcount: PAGE_BALLOON_MAPCOUNT_VALUE = -256. Buddy allocator uses
PAGE_BUDDY_MAPCOUNT_VALUE = -128 for similar purpose. Storing mark
directly in struct page makes everything safer and easier.
PagePrivate is used to mark pages present in page list (i.e. not
isolated, like PageLRU for normal pages). It replaces special rules for
reference counter and makes balloon migration similar to migration of
normal pages. This flag is protected by page_lock together with link to
the balloon device.

This series implements general forms of get_user_pages_fast and
__get_user_pages_fast in core code and activates them for arm and arm64.
These are required for Transparent HugePages to function correctly, as a
futex on a THP tail will otherwise result in an infinite loop (due to the
core implementation of __get_user_pages_fast always returning 0).
Unfortunately, a futex on THP tail can be quite common for certain
workloads; thus THP is unreliable without a __get_user_pages_fast
implementation.
This series may also be beneficial for direct-IO heavy workloads and
certain KVM workloads.
This patch (of 6):
get_user_pages_fast() attempts to pin user pages by walking the page
tables directly and avoids taking locks. Thus the walker needs to be
protected from page table pages being freed from under it, and needs to
block any THP splits.
One way to achieve this is to have the walker disable interrupts, and rely
on IPIs from the TLB flushing code blocking before the page table pages
are freed.
On some platforms we have hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations, thus
the TLB flushing code doesn't necessarily need to broadcast IPIs; and
spuriously broadcasting IPIs can hurt system performance if done too
often.
This problem has been solved on PowerPC and Sparc by batching up page
table pages belonging to more than one mm_user, then scheduling an
rcu_sched callback to free the pages. This RCU page table free logic has
been promoted to core code and is activated when one enables
HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE. Unfortunately, these architectures implement their
own get_user_pages_fast routines.
The RCU page table free logic coupled with an IPI broadcast on THP split
(which is a rare event), allows one to protect a page table walker by
merely disabling the interrupts during the walk.
This patch provides a general RCU implementation of get_user_pages_fast
that can be used by architectures that perform hardware broadcast of TLB
invalidations.
It is based heavily on the PowerPC implementation by Nick Piggin.

memcg_can_account_kmem() returns true iff
!mem_cgroup_disabled() && !mem_cgroup_is_root(memcg) &&
memcg_kmem_is_active(memcg);
To begin with the !mem_cgroup_is_root(memcg) check is useless, because one
can't enable kmem accounting for the root cgroup (mem_cgroup_write()
returns EINVAL on an attempt to set the limit on the root cgroup).
Furthermore, the !mem_cgroup_disabled() check also seems to be redundant.
The point is memcg_can_account_kmem() is called from three places:
mem_cgroup_salbinfo_read(), __memcg_kmem_get_cache(), and
__memcg_kmem_newpage_charge(). The latter two functions are only invoked
if memcg_kmem_enabled() returns true, which implies that the memory cgroup
subsystem is enabled. And mem_cgroup_slabinfo_read() shows the output of
memory.kmem.slabinfo, which won't exist if the memory cgroup is completely
disabled.
So let's substitute all the calls to memcg_can_account_kmem() with plain
memcg_kmem_is_active(), and kill the former.

In a memcg with even just moderate cache pressure, success rates for
transparent huge page allocations drop to zero, wasting a lot of effort
that the allocator puts into assembling these pages.
The reason for this is that the memcg reclaim code was never designed for
higher-order charges. It reclaims in small batches until there is room
for at least one page. Huge page charges only succeed when these batches
add up over a series of huge faults, which is unlikely under any
significant load involving order-0 allocations in the group.
Remove that loop on the memcg side in favor of passing the actual reclaim
goal to direct reclaim, which is already set up and optimized to meet
higher-order goals efficiently.
This brings memcg's THP policy in line with the system policy: if the
allocator painstakingly assembles a hugepage, memcg will at least make an
honest effort to charge it. As a result, transparent hugepage allocation
rates amid cache activity are drastically improved:
vanilla patched
pgalloc 4717530.80 ( +0.00%) 4451376.40 ( -5.64%)
pgfault 491370.60 ( +0.00%) 225477.40 ( -54.11%)
pgmajfault 2.00 ( +0.00%) 1.80 ( -6.67%)
thp_fault_alloc 0.00 ( +0.00%) 531.60 (+100.00%)
thp_fault_fallback 749.00 ( +0.00%) 217.40 ( -70.88%)
[ Note: this may in turn increase memory consumption from internal
fragmentation, which is an inherent risk of transparent hugepages.
Some setups may have to adjust the memcg limits accordingly to
accomodate this - or, if the machine is already packed to capacity,
disable the transparent huge page feature. ]

When attempting to charge pages, we first charge the memory counter and
then the memory+swap counter. If one of the counters is at its limit, we
enter reclaim, but if it's the memory+swap counter, reclaim shouldn't swap
because that wouldn't change the situation. However, if the counters have
the same limits, we never get to the memory+swap limit. To know whether
reclaim should swap or not, there is a state flag that indicates whether
the limits are equal and whether hitting the memory limit implies hitting
the memory+swap limit.
Just try the memory+swap counter first.

free_pages_and_swap_cache limits release_pages to PAGEVEC_SIZE chunks.
This is not a big deal for the normal release path but it completely kills
memcg uncharge batching which reduces res_counter spin_lock contention.
Dave has noticed this with his page fault scalability test case on a large
machine when the lock was basically dominating on all CPUs:
80.18% 80.18% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_lock

In his case the load was running in the root memcg and that part has been
handled by reverting 05b8430123 ("mm: memcontrol: use root_mem_cgroup
res_counter") because this is a clear regression, but the problem remains
inside dedicated memcgs.
There is no reason to limit release_pages to PAGEVEC_SIZE batches other
than lru_lock held times. This logic, however, can be moved inside the
function. mem_cgroup_uncharge_list and free_hot_cold_page_list do not
hold any lock for the whole pages_to_free list so it is safe to call them
in a single run.
The release_pages() code was previously breaking the lru_lock each
PAGEVEC_SIZE pages (ie, 14 pages). However this code has no usage of
pagevecs so switch to breaking the lock at least every SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX
(32) pages. This means that the lock acquisition frequency is
approximately halved and the max hold times are approximately doubled.
The now unneeded batching is removed from free_pages_and_swap_cache().
Also update the grossly out-of-date release_pages documentation.

The problem is the lock order of pools_lock and kernfs_mutex in
dma_pool_destroy() vs show_pools() call path.
This patch breaks out the creation of the sysfs file outside of the
pools_lock mutex. The newly added pools_reg_lock ensures that there is no
race of create vs destroy code path in terms whether or not the sysfs file
has to be deleted (and was it deleted before we try to create a new one)
and what to do if device_create_file() failed.

`While growing per memcg caches arrays, we jump between memcontrol.c and
slab_common.c in a weird way:
memcg_alloc_cache_id - memcontrol.c
memcg_update_all_caches - slab_common.c
memcg_update_cache_size - memcontrol.c
There's absolutely no reason why memcg_update_cache_size can't live on the
slab's side though. So let's move it there and settle it comfortably amid
per-memcg cache allocation functions.
Besides, this patch cleans this function up a bit, removing all the
useless comments from it, and renames it to memcg_update_cache_params to
conform to memcg_alloc/free_cache_params, which we already have in
slab_common.c.

memcg_update_all_caches grows arrays of per-memcg caches, so we only need
to call it when memcg_limited_groups_array_size is increased. However,
currently we invoke it each time a new kmem-active memory cgroup is
created. Then it just iterates over all slab_caches and does nothing
(memcg_update_cache_size returns immediately).
This patch fixes this insanity. In the meantime it moves the code dealing
with id allocations to separate functions, memcg_alloc_cache_id and
memcg_free_cache_id.

The only reason why they live in memcontrol.c is that we get/put css
reference to the owner memory cgroup in them. However, we can do that in
memcg_{un,}register_cache. OTOH, there are several reasons to move them
to slab_common.c.
First, I think that the less public interface functions we have in
memcontrol.h the better. Since the functions I move don't depend on
memcontrol, I think it's worth making them private to slab, especially
taking into account that the arrays are defined on the slab's side too.
Second, the way how per-memcg arrays are updated looks rather awkward: it
proceeds from memcontrol.c (__memcg_activate_kmem) to slab_common.c
(memcg_update_all_caches) and back to memcontrol.c again
(memcg_update_array_size). In the following patches I move the function
relocating the arrays (memcg_update_array_size) to slab_common.c and
therefore get rid this circular call path. I think we should have the
cache allocation stuff in the same place where we have relocation, because
it's easier to follow the code then. So I move arrays alloc/free
functions to slab_common.c too.
The third point isn't obvious. I'm going to make the list_lru structure
per-memcg to allow targeted kmem reclaim. That means we will have
per-memcg arrays in list_lrus too. It turns out that it's much easier to
update these arrays in list_lru.c rather than in memcontrol.c, because all
the stuff we need is defined there. This patch makes memcg caches arrays
allocation path conform that of the upcoming list_lru.
So let's move these functions to slab_common.c and make them static.

Zones are allocated by the page allocator in either node or zone order.
Node ordering is preferred in terms of locality and is applied
automatically in one of three cases:
1. If a node has only low memory
2. If DMA/DMA32 is a high percentage of memory
3. If low memory on a single node is greater than 70% of the node size
Otherwise zone ordering is used to preserve low memory for devices that
require it. Unfortunately a consequence of this is that applications
running on a machine with balanced NUMA nodes will experience different
performance characteristics depending on which node they happen to start
from.
The point of zone ordering is to protect lower zones for devices that
require DMA/DMA32 memory. When NUMA was first introduced, this was
critical as 32-bit NUMA machines existed and exhausting low memory
triggered OOMs easily as so many allocations required low memory. On
64-bit machines the primary concern is devices that are 32-bit only which
is less severe than the low memory exhaustion problem on 32-bit NUMA. It
seems there are really few devices that depends on it.
AGP -- I assume this is getting more rare but even then I think the allocations
happen early in boot time where lowmem pressure is less of a problem
DRM -- If the device is 32-bit only then there may be low pressure. I didn't
evaluate these in detail but it looks like some of these are mobile
graphics card. Not many NUMA laptops out there. DRM folk should know
better though.
Some TV cards -- Much demand for 32-bit capable TV cards on NUMA machines?
B43 wireless card -- again not really a NUMA thing.
I cannot find a good reason to incur a performance penalty on all 64-bit NUMA
machines in case someone throws a brain damanged TV or graphics card in there.
This patch defaults to node-ordering on 64-bit NUMA machines. I was tempted
to make it default everywhere but I understand that some embedded arches may
be using 32-bit NUMA where I cannot predict the consequences.
The performance impact depends on the workload and the characteristics of the
machine and the machine I tested on had a large Normal zone on node 0 so the
impact is within the noise for the majority of tests. The allocation stats
show more allocation requests were from DMA32 and local node. Running SpecJBB
with multiple JVMs and automatic NUMA balancing disabled the results were

Note that there were more DMA32 allocations with the patch applied. In this
particular case there was no difference in numa_hit and numa_miss. The
expectation is that DMA32 was being used at the low watermark instead of
falling into the slow path. kswapd was not woken but it's not worken for
THP allocations.
On 32-bit, this patch defaults to zone-ordering as low memory depletion
can be a serious problem on 32-bit large memory machines. If the default
ordering was node then processes on node 0 will deplete the Normal zone
due to normal activity. The problem is worse if CONFIG_HIGHPTE is not
set. If combined with large amounts of dirty/writeback pages in Normal
zone then there is also a high risk of OOM. The heuristics are removed
as it's not clear they were ever important on 32-bit. They were only
relevant for setting node-ordering on 64-bit.

The deprecation warnings for the scan_unevictable interface triggers by
scripts doing `sysctl -a | grep something else'. This is annoying and not
helpful.
The interface has been defunct since 264e56d824 ("mm: disable user
interface to manually rescue unevictable pages"), which was in 2011, and
there haven't been any reports of usecases for it, only reports that the
deprecation warnings are annying. It's unlikely that anybody is using
this interface specifically at this point, so remove it.

struct compact_control currently converts the gfp mask to a migratetype,
but we need the entire gfp mask in a follow-up patch.
Pass the entire gfp mask as part of struct compact_control.
