Commit e809d5f0b5 ("tmpfs: per-superblock i_ino support") made changes
to shmem_reserve_inode() in mm/shmem.c, however the original test for
(sbinfo->max_inodes) got dropped. This causes mounting tmpfs with option
nr_inodes=0 to fail:
# mount -ttmpfs -onr_inodes=0 none /ext0
mount: /ext0: mount(2) system call failed: Cannot allocate memory.
This patch restores the nr_inodes=0 functionality.

The current split between do_mmap() and do_mmap_pgoff() was introduced in
commit 1fcfd8db7f ("mm, mpx: add "vm_flags_t vm_flags" arg to
do_mmap_pgoff()") to support MPX.
The wrapper function do_mmap_pgoff() always passed 0 as the value of the
vm_flags argument to do_mmap(). However, MPX support has subsequently
been removed from the kernel and there were no more direct callers of
do_mmap(); all calls were going via do_mmap_pgoff().
Simplify the code by removing do_mmap_pgoff() and changing all callers to
directly call do_mmap(), which now no longer takes a vm_flags argument.

The default is still set to inode32 for backwards compatibility, but
system administrators can opt in to the new 64-bit inode numbers by
either:
1. Passing inode64 on the command line when mounting, or
2. Configuring the kernel with CONFIG_TMPFS_INODE64=y
The inode64 and inode32 names are used based on existing precedent from
XFS.

Patch series "tmpfs: inode: Reduce risk of inum overflow", v7.
In Facebook production we are seeing heavy i_ino wraparounds on tmpfs. On
affected tiers, in excess of 10% of hosts show multiple files with
different content and the same inode number, with some servers even having
as many as 150 duplicated inode numbers with differing file content.
This causes actual, tangible problems in production. For example, we have
complaints from those working on remote caches that their application is
reporting cache corruptions because it uses (device, inodenum) to
establish the identity of a particular cache object, but because it's not
unique any more, the application refuses to continue and reports cache
corruption. Even worse, sometimes applications may not even detect the
corruption but may continue anyway, causing phantom and hard to debug
behaviour.
In general, userspace applications expect that (device, inodenum) should
be enough to be uniquely point to one inode, which seems fair enough. One
might also need to check the generation, but in this case:
1. That's not currently exposed to userspace
(ioctl(...FS_IOC_GETVERSION...) returns ENOTTY on tmpfs);
2. Even with generation, there shouldn't be two live inodes with the
same inode number on one device.
In order to mitigate this, we take a two-pronged approach:
1. Moving inum generation from being global to per-sb for tmpfs. This
itself allows some reduction in i_ino churn. This works on both 64-
and 32- bit machines.
2. Adding inode{64,32} for tmpfs. This fix is supported on machines with
64-bit ino_t only: we allow users to mount tmpfs with a new inode64
option that uses the full width of ino_t, or CONFIG_TMPFS_INODE64.
You can see how this compares to previous related patches which didn't
implement this per-superblock:
- https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11254001/
- https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11023915/
This patch (of 2):
get_next_ino has a number of problems:
- It uses and returns a uint, which is susceptible to become overflowed
if a lot of volatile inodes that use get_next_ino are created.
- It's global, with no specificity per-sb or even per-filesystem. This
means it's not that difficult to cause inode number wraparounds on a
single device, which can result in having multiple distinct inodes
with the same inode number.
This patch adds a per-superblock counter that mitigates the second case.
This design also allows us to later have a specific i_ino size per-device,
for example, allowing users to choose whether to use 32- or 64-bit inodes
for each tmpfs mount. This is implemented in the next commit.
For internal shmem mounts which may be less tolerant to spinlock delays,
we implement a percpu batching scheme which only takes the stat_lock at
each batch boundary.

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.
The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once. For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.
Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.
static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}
static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}
These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.
For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.
These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.
This patch (of 12):
The linux/mm.h header includes <asm/pgtable.h> to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g. pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc(). So, there is no point to explicitly include <asm/pgtable.h>
in the files that include <linux/mm.h>.
The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:
for f in $(git grep -l "include <linux/mm.h>") ; do
sed -i -e '/include <asm\/pgtable.h>/ d' $f
done

Right now, users that are otherwise memory controlled can easily escape
their containment and allocate significant amounts of memory that they're
not being charged for. That's because swap readahead pages are not being
charged until somebody actually faults them into their page table. This
can be exploited with MADV_WILLNEED, which triggers arbitrary readahead
allocations without charging the pages.
There are additional problems with the delayed charging of swap pages:
1. To implement refault/workingset detection for anonymous pages, we
need to have a target LRU available at swapin time, but the LRU is not
determinable until the page has been charged.
2. To implement per-cgroup LRU locking, we need page->mem_cgroup to be
stable when the page is isolated from the LRU; otherwise, the locks
change under us. But swapcache gets charged after it's already on the
LRU, and even if we cannot isolate it ourselves (since charging is not
exactly optional).
The previous patch ensured we always maintain cgroup ownership records for
swap pages. This patch moves the swapcache charging point from the fault
handler to swapin time to fix all of the above problems.

Memcg maintains private MEMCG_CACHE and NR_SHMEM counters. This
divergence from the generic VM accounting means unnecessary code overhead,
and creates a dependency for memcg that page->mapping is set up at the
time of charging, so that page types can be told apart.
Convert the generic accounting sites to mod_lruvec_page_state and friends
to maintain the per-cgroup vmstat counters of NR_FILE_PAGES and NR_SHMEM.
The page is already locked in these places, so page->mem_cgroup is stable;
we only need minimal tweaks of two mem_cgroup_migrate() calls to ensure
it's set up in time.
Then replace MEMCG_CACHE with NR_FILE_PAGES and delete the private
NR_SHMEM accounting sites.

The try/commit/cancel protocol that memcg uses dates back to when pages
used to be uncharged upon removal from the page cache, and thus couldn't
be committed before the insertion had succeeded. Nowadays, pages are
uncharged when they are physically freed; it doesn't matter whether the
insertion was successful or not. For the page cache, the transaction
dance has become unnecessary.
Introduce a mem_cgroup_charge() function that simply charges a newly
allocated page to a cgroup and sets up page->mem_cgroup in one single
step. If the insertion fails, the caller doesn't have to do anything but
free/put the page.
Then switch the page cache over to this new API.
Subsequent patches will also convert anon pages, but it needs a bit more
prep work. Right now, memcg depends on page->mapping being already set up
at the time of charging, so that it can maintain its own MEMCG_CACHE and
MEMCG_RSS counters. For anon, page->mapping is set under the same pte
lock under which the page is publishd, so a single charge point that can
block doesn't work there just yet.
The following prep patches will replace the private memcg counters with
the generic vmstat counters, thus removing the page->mapping dependency,
then complete the transition to the new single-point charge API and delete
the old transactional scheme.

Commit 215c02bc33 ("tmpfs: fix shmem_getpage_gfp() VM_BUG_ON")
recognized that hole punching can race with swapin and removed the
BUG_ON() for a truncated entry from the swapin path.
The patch also added a swapcache deletion to optimize this rare case:
Since swapin has the page locked, and free_swap_and_cache() merely
trylocks, this situation can leave the page stranded in swapcache.
Usually, page reclaim picks up stale swapcache pages, and the race can
happen at any other time when the page is locked. (The same happens for
non-shmem swapin racing with page table zapping.) The thinking here was:
we already observed the race and we have the page locked, we may as well
do the cleanup instead of waiting for reclaim.
However, this optimization complicates the next patch which moves the
cgroup charging code around. As this is just a minor speedup for a race
condition that is so rare that it required a fuzzer to trigger the
original BUG_ON(), it's no longer worth the complications.

The memcg charging API carries a boolean @compound parameter that tells
whether the page we're dealing with is a hugepage.
mem_cgroup_commit_charge() has another boolean @lrucare that indicates
whether the page needs LRU locking or not while charging. The majority of
callsites know those parameters at compile time, which results in a lot of
naked "false, false" argument lists. This makes for cryptic code and is a
breeding ground for subtle mistakes.
Thankfully, the huge page state can be inferred from the page itself and
doesn't need to be passed along. This is safe because charging completes
before the page is published and somebody may split it.
Simplify the callsites by removing @compound, and let memcg infer the
state by using hpage_nr_pages() unconditionally. That function does
PageTransHuge() to identify huge pages, which also helpfully asserts that
nobody passes in tail pages by accident.
The following patches will introduce a new charging API, best not to carry
over unnecessary weight.

when punching hole") has allowed syzkaller to probe deeper, uncovering a
long-standing lockdep issue between the irq-unsafe shmlock_user_lock,
the irq-safe xa_lock on mapping->i_pages, and shmem inode's info->lock
which nests inside xa_lock (or tree_lock) since 4.8's shmem_uncharge().
user_shm_lock(), servicing SysV shmctl(SHM_LOCK), wants
shmlock_user_lock while its caller shmem_lock() holds info->lock with
interrupts disabled; but hugetlbfs_file_setup() calls user_shm_lock()
with interrupts enabled, and might be interrupted by a writeback endio
wanting xa_lock on i_pages.
This may not risk an actual deadlock, since shmem inodes do not take
part in writeback accounting, but there are several easy ways to avoid
it.
Requiring interrupts disabled for shmlock_user_lock would be easy, but
it's a high-level global lock for which that seems inappropriate.
Instead, recall that the use of info->lock to guard info->flags in
shmem_lock() dates from pre-3.1 days, when races with SHMEM_PAGEIN and
SHMEM_TRUNCATE could occur: nowadays it serves no purpose, the only flag
added or removed is VM_LOCKED itself, and calls to shmem_lock() an inode
are already serialized by the caller.
Take info->lock out of the chain and the possibility of deadlock or
lockdep warning goes away.

Yang Shi writes:
Currently, when truncating a shmem file, if the range is partly in a THP
(start or end is in the middle of THP), the pages actually will just get
cleared rather than being freed, unless the range covers the whole THP.
Even though all the subpages are truncated (randomly or sequentially), the
THP may still be kept in page cache.
This might be fine for some usecases which prefer preserving THP, but
balloon inflation is handled in base page size. So when using shmem THP
as memory backend, QEMU inflation actually doesn't work as expected since
it doesn't free memory. But the inflation usecase really needs to get the
memory freed. (Anonymous THP will also not get freed right away, but will
be freed eventually when all subpages are unmapped: whereas shmem THP
still stays in page cache.)
Split THP right away when doing partial hole punch, and if split fails
just clear the page so that read of the punched area will return zeroes.
Hugh Dickins adds:
Our earlier "team of pages" huge tmpfs implementation worked in the way
that Yang Shi proposes; and we have been using this patch to continue to
split the huge page when hole-punched or truncated, since converting over
to the compound page implementation. Although huge tmpfs gives out huge
pages when available, if the user specifically asks to truncate or punch a
hole (perhaps to free memory, perhaps to reduce the memcg charge), then
the filesystem should do so as best it can, splitting the huge page.
That is not always possible: any additional reference to the huge page
prevents split_huge_page() from succeeding, so the result can be flaky.
But in practice it works successfully enough that we've not seen any
problem from that.
Add shmem_punch_compound() to encapsulate the decision of when a split is
needed, and doing the split if so. Using this simplifies the flow in
shmem_undo_range(); and the first (trylock) pass does not need to do any
page clearing on failure, because the second pass will either succeed or
do that clearing. Following the example of zero_user_segment() when
clearing a partial page, add flush_dcache_page() and set_page_dirty() when
clearing a hole - though I'm not certain that either is needed.
But: split_huge_page() would be sure to fail if shmem_undo_range()'s
pagevec holds further references to the huge page. The easiest way to fix
that is for find_get_entries() to return early, as soon as it has put one
compound head or tail into the pagevec. At first this felt like a hack;
but on examination, this convention better suits all its callers - or will
do, if the slight one-page-per-pagevec slowdown in shmem_unlock_mapping()
and shmem_seek_hole_data() is transformed into a 512-page-per-pagevec
speedup by checking for compound pages there.

Variables declared in a switch statement before any case statements cannot
be automatically initialized with compiler instrumentation (as they are
not part of any execution flow). With GCC's proposed automatic stack
variable initialization feature, this triggers a warning (and they don't
get initialized). Clang's automatic stack variable initialization (via
CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL=y) doesn't throw a warning, but it also doesn't
initialize such variables[1]. Note that these warnings (or silent
skipping) happen before the dead-store elimination optimization phase, so
even when the automatic initializations are later elided in favor of
direct initializations, the warnings remain.
To avoid these problems, move such variables into the "case" where they're
used or lift them up into the main function body.

The thp_fault_fallback and thp_file_fallback vmstats are incremented if
either the hugepage allocation fails through the page allocator or the
hugepage charge fails through mem cgroup.
This patch leaves this field untouched but adds two new fields,
thp_{fault,file}_fallback_charge, which is incremented only when the mem
cgroup charge fails.
This distinguishes between attempted hugepage allocations that fail due to
fragmentation (or low memory conditions) and those that fail due to mem
cgroup limits. That can be used to determine the impact of fragmentation
on the system by excluding faults that failed due to memcg usage.

cgroups directly.
This is not only neat in terms of semantics but also avoids grabbing
the global cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem for migration.
- Daniel added !root xattr support to cgroupfs.
Userland already uses xattrs on cgroupfs for bookkeeping. This will
allow delegated cgroups to support such usages.
- Prateek tried to make cpuset hotplug handling synchronous but that

Shmem/tmpfs tries to provide THP-friendly mappings if huge pages are
enabled. But it doesn't work well with above-47bit hint address.
Normally, the kernel doesn't create userspace mappings above 47-bit,
even if the machine allows this (such as with 5-level paging on x86-64).
Not all user space is ready to handle wide addresses. It's known that
at least some JIT compilers use higher bits in pointers to encode their
information.
Userspace can ask for allocation from full address space by specifying
hint address (with or without MAP_FIXED) above 47-bits. If the
application doesn't need a particular address, but wants to allocate
from whole address space it can specify -1 as a hint address.
Unfortunately, this trick breaks THP alignment in shmem/tmp:
shmem_get_unmapped_area() would not try to allocate PMD-aligned area if
*any* hint address specified.
This can be fixed by requesting the aligned area if the we failed to
allocated at user-specified hint address. The request with inflated
length will also take the user-specified hint address. This way we will
not lose an allocation request from the full address space.

The shmem_writepage() uses GFP_ATOMIC to allocate swap cache. GFP_ATOMIC
used to mean __GFP_HIGH, but now it means __GFP_HIGH | __GFP_ATOMIC |
__GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. However, shmem_writepage() should write out to swap
only in response to memory pressure, so __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM looks useless
since the caller may be kswapd itself or in direct reclaim already.
In addition, XArray node allocations from PF_MEMALLOC contexts could
completely exhaust the page allocator, __GFP_NOMEMALLOC stops emergency
reserves from being allocated.
Here just copy the gfp flags used by add_to_swap().

F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE has unexpected behavior when used with MAP_PRIVATE:
A private mapping created after the memfd file that gets sealed with
F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE loses the copy-on-write at fork behavior, meaning
children and parent share the same memory, even though the mapping is
private.
The reason for this is due to the code below:
static int shmem_mmap(struct file *file, struct vm_area_struct *vma)
{
struct shmem_inode_info *info = SHMEM_I(file_inode(file));
if (info->seals & F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE) {
/*
* New PROT_WRITE and MAP_SHARED mmaps are not allowed when
* "future write" seal active.
*/
if ((vma->vm_flags & VM_SHARED) && (vma->vm_flags & VM_WRITE))
return -EPERM;
/*
* Since the F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE seals allow for a MAP_SHARED
* read-only mapping, take care to not allow mprotect to revert
* protections.
*/
vma->vm_flags &= ~(VM_MAYWRITE);
}
...
}
And for the mm to know if a mapping is copy-on-write:
static inline bool is_cow_mapping(vm_flags_t flags)
{
return (flags & (VM_SHARED | VM_MAYWRITE)) == VM_MAYWRITE;
}
The patch fixes the issue by making the mprotect revert protection
happen only for shared mappings. For private mappings, using mprotect
will have no effect on the seal behavior.
The F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE feature was introduced in v5.1 so v5.3.x stable
kernels would need a backport.

Merge hugepage allocation updates from David Rientjes:
"We (mostly Linus, Andrea, and myself) have been discussing offlist how
to implement a sane default allocation strategy for hugepages on NUMA
platforms.
With these reverts in place, the page allocator will happily allocate
a remote hugepage immediately rather than try to make a local hugepage
available. This incurs a substantial performance degradation when
memory compaction would have otherwise made a local hugepage
available.
This series reverts those reverts and attempts to propose a more sane
default allocation strategy specifically for hugepages. Andrea
acknowledges this is likely to fix the swap storms that he originally
reported that resulted in the patches that removed __GFP_THISNODE from
hugepage allocations.
The immediate goal is to return 5.3 to the behavior the kernel has
implemented over the past several years so that remote hugepages are
not immediately allocated when local hugepages could have been made
available because the increased access latency is untenable.
The next goal is to introduce a sane default allocation strategy for
hugepages allocations in general regardless of the configuration of
the system so that we prevent thrashing of local memory when
compaction is unlikely to succeed and can prefer remote hugepages over
remote native pages when the local node is low on memory."
Note on timing: this reverts the hugepage VM behavior changes that got
introduced fairly late in the 5.3 cycle, and that fixed a huge
performance regression for certain loads that had been around since
4.18.
Andrea had this note:
"The regression of 4.18 was that it was taking hours to start a VM
where 3.10 was only taking a few seconds, I reported all the details
on lkml when it was finally tracked down in August 2018.
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20180820032640.9896-2-aarcange@redhat.com/
__GFP_THISNODE in MADV_HUGEPAGE made the above enterprise vfio
workload degrade like in the "current upstream" above. And it still
would have been that bad as above until 5.3-rc5"
where the bad behavior ends up happening as you fill up a local node,
and without that change, you'd get into the nasty swap storm behavior
due to compaction working overtime to make room for more memory on the
nodes.
As a result 5.3 got the two performance fix reverts in rc5.
However, David Rientjes then noted that those performance fixes in turn
regressed performance for other loads - although not quite to the same
degree. He suggested reverting the reverts and instead replacing them
with two small changes to how hugepage allocations are done (patch
descriptions rephrased by me):
- "avoid expensive reclaim when compaction may not succeed": just admit
that the allocation failed when you're trying to allocate a huge-page
and compaction wasn't successful.
- "allow hugepage fallback to remote nodes when madvised": when that
node-local huge-page allocation failed, retry without forcing the
local node.
but by then I judged it too late to replace the fixes for a 5.3 release.
So 5.3 was released with behavior that harked back to the pre-4.18 logic.
But now we're in the merge window for 5.4, and we can see if this
alternate model fixes not just the horrendous swap storm behavior, but
also restores the performance regression that the late reverts caused.
Fingers crossed.
* emailed patches from David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com>:
mm, page_alloc: allow hugepage fallback to remote nodes when madvised
mm, page_alloc: avoid expensive reclaim when compaction may not succeed
Revert "Revert "Revert "mm, thp: consolidate THP gfp handling into alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask""
Revert "Revert "mm, thp: restore node-local hugepage allocations""
This reverts commit 92717d429b.
Since commit a8282608c8 ("Revert "mm, thp: restore node-local hugepage
allocations"") is reverted in this series, it is better to restore the
previous 5.2 behavior between the thp allocation and the page allocator
rather than to attempt any consolidation or cleanup for a policy that is
now reverted. It's less risky during an rc cycle and subsequent patches
in this series further modify the same policy that the pre-5.3 behavior
implements.
Consolidation and cleanup can be done subsequent to a sane default page
allocation strategy, so this patch reverts a cleanup done on a strategy
that is now reverted and thus is the least risky option.

Transparent Huge Pages are currently stored in i_pages as pointers to
consecutive subpages. This patch changes that to storing consecutive
pointers to the head page in preparation for storing huge pages more
efficiently in i_pages.
Large parts of this are "inspired" by Kirill's patch

Kirill and Huang Ying contributed several fixes.

Convert the ramfs, shmem, tmpfs, devtmpfs and rootfs filesystems to the new
internal mount API as the old one will be obsoleted and removed. This
allows greater flexibility in communication of mount parameters between
userspace, the VFS and the filesystem.
See Documentation/filesystems/mount_api.txt for more information.
Note that tmpfs is slightly tricky as it can contain embedded commas, so it
can't be trivially split up using strsep() to break on commas in
generic_parse_monolithic(). Instead, tmpfs has to supply its own generic
parser.
However, if tmpfs changes, then devtmpfs and rootfs, which are wrappers
around tmpfs or ramfs, must change too - and thus so must ramfs, so these
had to be converted also.

This thing will eventually become our ->parse_param(), while
shmem_parse_options() - ->parse_monolithic(). At that point
shmem_parse_options() will start calling vfs_parse_fs_string(),
rather than calling shmem_parse_one() directly.
