With s390 dropping support for emulated hugepages, the last user of arch_prepare_hugepage and arch_release_hugepage is gone. Signed-off-by:

Dominik Dingel authored
There is a potential bug with KVM and hugetlbfs if the hardware does not support hugepages (EDAT1). We fix this by making EDAT1 a hard requirement for hugepages and therefore removing and simplifying code. As s390, with the sw-emulated hugepages, was the only user of arch_prepare/release_hugepage I also removed theses calls from common and other architecture code. This patch (of 5): By dropping support for hugepages on machines which do not have the hardware feature EDAT1, we fix a potential s390 KVM bug. The bug would happen if a guest is backed by hugetlbfs (not supported currently), but does not get pagetables with PGSTE. This would lead to random memory overwrites. Signed-off-by:

Since commit 077fcf11 ("mm/thp: allocate transparent hugepages on local node"), we handle THP allocations on page fault in a special way - for non-interleave memory policies, the allocation is only attempted on the node local to the current CPU, if the policy's nodemask allows the node. This is motivated by the assumption that THP benefits cannot offset the cost of remote accesses, so it's better to fallback to base pages on the local node (which might still be available, while huge pages are not due to fragmentation) than to allocate huge pages on a remote node. The nodemask check prevents us from violating e.g. MPOL_BIND policies where the local node is not among the allowed nodes. However, the current implementation can still give surprising results for the MPOL_PREFERRED policy when the preferred node is different than the current CPU's local node. In such case we should honor the preferred node and not use the local node, which is what this patch does. If hugepage allocation on the preferred node fails, we fall back to base pages and don't try other nodes, with the same motivation as is done for the local node hugepage allocations. The patch also moves the MPOL_INTERLEAVE check around to simplify the hugepage specific test. The difference can be demonstrated using in-tree transhuge-stress test on the following 2-node machine where half memory on one node was occupied to show the difference. > numactl --hardware available: 2 nodes (0-1) node 0 cpus: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 node 0 size: 7878 MB node 0 free: 3623 MB node 1 cpus: 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 node 1 size: 8045 MB node 1 free: 7818 MB node distances: node 0 1 0: 10 21 1: 21 10 Before the patch: > numactl -p0 -C0 ./transhuge-stress transhuge-stress: 2.197 s/loop, 0.276 ms/page, 7249.168 MiB/s 7962 succeed, 0 failed, 1786 different pages > numactl -p0 -C12 ./transhuge-stress transhuge-stress: 2.962 s/loop, 0.372 ms/page, 5376.172 MiB/s 7962 succeed, 0 failed, 3873 different pages Number of successful THP allocations corresponds to free memory on node 0 in the first case and node 1 in the second case, i.e. -p parameter is ignored and cpu binding "wins".

One of the rocksdb people noticed that when you do something like this fallocate(fd, FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE, 0, 10M) pwrite(fd, buf, 5M, 0) ftruncate(5M) on tmpfs, the file would still take up 10M: which led to super fun issues because we were getting ENOSPC before we thought we should be getting ENOSPC. This patch fixes the problem, and mirrors what all the other fs'es do (and was agreed to be the correct behaviour at LSF). I tested it locally to make sure it worked properly with the following xfs_io -f -c "falloc -k 0 10M" -c "pwrite 0 5M" -c "truncate 5M" file Without the patch we have "Blocks: 20480", with the patch we have the correct value of "Blocks: 10240".

The cause is the last region was missed at the and of hot add memory, and p_start, p_end, node_start were not reset, so when hot add memory to a new node, it will consider they are not contiguous blocks and print the previous one. So we print the last vmemmap region at the end of hot add memory to avoid the confusion. Signed-off-by:Zhu Guihua <zhugh.fnst@cn.fujitsu.com> Reviewed-by:

The kmemleak memory scanning uses finer grained object->lock spinlocks primarily to avoid races with the memory block freeing. However, the pointer lookup in the rb tree requires the kmemleak_lock to be held. This is currently done in the find_and_get_object() function for each pointer-like location read during scanning. While this allows a low latency on kmemleak_*() callbacks on other CPUs, the memory scanning is slower. This patch moves the kmemleak_lock outside the scan_block() loop, acquiring/releasing it only once per scanned memory block. The allow_resched logic is moved outside scan_block() and a new scan_large_block() function is implemented which splits large blocks in MAX_SCAN_SIZE chunks with cond_resched() calls in-between. A redundant (object->flags & OBJECT_NO_SCAN) check is also removed from scan_object(). With this patch, the kmemleak scanning performance is significantly improved: at least 50% with lock debugging disabled and over an order of magnitude with lock proving enabled (on an arm64 system).

While very unlikely (usually kmemleak or sl*b bug), the create_object() function in mm/kmemleak.c may fail to insert a newly allocated object into the rb tree. When this happens, kmemleak disables itself and prints additional information about the object already found in the rb tree. Such printing is done with the parent->lock acquired, however the kmemleak_lock is already held. This is a potential race with the scanning thread which acquires object->lock and kmemleak_lock in a This patch removes the locking around the 'parent' object information printing. Such object cannot be freed or removed from object_tree_root and object_list since kmemleak_lock is already held. There is a very small risk that some of the object data is being modified on another CPU but the only downside is inconsistent information printing. Signed-off-by:

The kmemleak_do_cleanup() work thread already waits for the kmemleak_scan thread to finish via kthread_stop(). Waiting in kthread_stop() while scan_mutex is held may lead to deadlock if kmemleak_scan_thread() also waits to acquire for scan_mutex. Signed-off-by:

Calling delete_object_*() on the same pointer is not a standard use case (unless there is a bug in the code calling kmemleak_free()). However, during kmemleak disabling (error or user triggered via /sys), there is a potential race between kmemleak_free() calls on a CPU and __kmemleak_do_cleanup() on a different CPU. The current delete_object_*() implementation first performs a look-up holding kmemleak_lock, increments the object->use_count and then re-acquires kmemleak_lock to remove the object from object_tree_root and object_list. This patch simplifies the delete_object_*() mechanism to both look up and remove an object from the object_tree_root and object_list atomically (guarded by kmemleak_lock). This allows safe concurrent calls to delete_object_*() on the same pointer without additional locking for synchronising the kmemleak_free_enabled flag. A side effect is a slight improvement in the delete_object_*() performance by avoiding acquiring kmemleak_lock twice and incrementing/decrementing object->use_count. Signed-off-by:

The kmemleak scanning thread can run for minutes. Callbacks like kmemleak_free() are allowed during this time, the race being taken care of by the object->lock spinlock. Such lock also prevents a memory block from being freed or unmapped while it is being scanned by blocking the kmemleak_free() -> ... -> __delete_object() function until the lock is released in scan_object(). When a kmemleak error occurs (e.g. it fails to allocate its metadata), kmemleak_enabled is set and __delete_object() is no longer called on freed objects. If kmemleak_scan is running at the same time, kmemleak_free() no longer waits for the object scanning to complete, allowing the corresponding memory block to be freed or unmapped (in the case of vfree()). This leads to kmemleak_scan potentially triggering a page fault. This patch separates the kmemleak_free() enabling/disabling from the overall kmemleak_enabled nob so that we can defer the disabling of the object freeing tracking until the scanning thread completed. The kmemleak_free_part() is deliberately ignored by this patch since this is only called during boot before the scanning thread started. Signed-off-by:

memcg->under_oom tracks whether the memcg is under OOM conditions and is an atomic_t counter managed with mem_cgroup_[un]mark_under_oom(). While atomic_t appears to be simple synchronization-wise, when used as a synchronization construct like here, it's trickier and more error-prone due to weak memory ordering rules, especially around atomic_read(), and false sense of security. For example, both non-trivial read sites of memcg->under_oom are a bit problematic although not being actually broken. * mem_cgroup_oom_register_event() It isn't explicit what guarantees the memory ordering between event addition and memcg->under_oom check. This isn't broken only because memcg_oom_lock is used for both event list and memcg->oom_lock. * memcg_oom_recover() The lockless test doesn't have any explanation why this would be safe. mem_cgroup_[un]mark_under_oom() are very cold paths and there's no point in avoiding locking memcg_oom_lock there. This patch converts memcg->under_oom from atomic_t to int, puts their modifications under memcg_oom_lock and documents why the lockless test in memcg_oom_recover() is safe. Signed-off-by:

Since commit 49426420 ("mm: memcg: handle non-error OOM situations more gracefully"), nobody uses mem_cgroup->oom_wakeups. Remove it. While at it, also fold memcg_wakeup_oom() into memcg_oom_recover() which is its only user. This cleanup was suggested by Michal. Signed-off-by:

Change frontswap single pointer to a singly linked list of frontswap implementations. Update Xen tmem implementation as register no longer returns anything. Frontswap only keeps track of a single implementation; any implementation that registers second (or later) will replace the previously registered implementation, and gets a pointer to the previous implementation that the new implementation is expected to pass all frontswap functions to if it can't handle the function itself. However that method doesn't really make much sense, as passing that work on to every implementation adds unnecessary work to implementations; instead, frontswap should simply keep a list of all registered implementations and try each implementation for any function. Most importantly, neither of the two currently existing frontswap implementations in the kernel actually do anything with any previous frontswap implementation that they replace when registering. This allows frontswap to successfully manage multiple implementations by keeping a list of them all. Signed-off-by:

Try to allocate all boot time kernel data structures from mirrored memory. If we run out of mirrored memory print warnings, but fall back to using non-mirrored memory to make sure that we still boot. By number of bytes, most of what we allocate at boot time is the page structures. 64 bytes per 4K page on x86_64 ... or about 1.5% of total system memory. For workloads where the bulk of memory is allocated to applications this may represent a useful improvement to system availability since 1.5% of total memory might be a third of the memory allocated to the kernel.

Some high end Intel Xeon systems report uncorrectable memory errors as a recoverable machine check. Linux has included code for some time to process these and just signal the affected processes (or even recover completely if the error was in a read only page that can be replaced by reading from disk). But we have no recovery path for errors encountered during kernel code execution. Except for some very specific cases were are unlikely to ever be able to recover. Enter memory mirroring. Actually 3rd generation of memory mirroing. Gen1: All memory is mirrored Pro: No s/w enabling - h/w just gets good data from other side of the mirror Con: Halves effective memory capacity available to OS/applications Gen2: Partial memory mirror - just mirror memory begind some memory controllers Pro: Keep more of the capacity Con: Nightmare to enable. Have to choose between allocating from mirrored memory for safety vs. NUMA local memory for performance Gen3: Address range partial memory mirror - some mirror on each memory controller Pro: Can tune the amount of mirror and keep NUMA performance Con: I have to write memory management code to implement The current plan is just to use mirrored memory for kernel allocations. This has been broken into two phases: 1) This patch series - find the mirrored memory, use it for boot time allocations 2) Wade into mm/page_alloc.c and define a ZONE_MIRROR to pick up the unused mirrored memory from mm/memblock.c and only give it out to select kernel allocations (this is still being scoped because page_alloc.c is scary). This patch (of 3): Add extra "flags" to memblock to allow selection of memory based on attribute. No functional changes Signed-off-by: -

page_cache_read, do_generic_file_read, __generic_file_splice_read and __ntfs_grab_cache_pages currently ignore mapping_gfp_mask when calling add_to_page_cache_lru which might cause recursion into fs down in the direct reclaim path if the mapping really relies on GFP_NOFS semantic. This doesn't seem to be the case now because page_cache_read (page fault path) doesn't seem to suffer from the reclaim recursion issues and do_generic_file_read and __generic_file_splice_read also shouldn't be called under fs locks which would deadlock in the reclaim path. Anyway it is better to obey mapping gfp mask and prevent from later breakage. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Signed-off-by:

alloc_huge_page and hugetlb_reserve_pages use region_chg to calculate the number of pages which will be added to the reserve map. Subpool and global reserve counts are adjusted based on the output of region_chg. Before the pages are actually added to the reserve map, these routines could race and add fewer pages than expected. If this happens, the subpool and global reserve counts are not correct. Compare the number of pages actually added (region_add) to those expected to added (region_chg). If fewer pages are actually added, this indicates a race and adjust counters accordingly. Signed-off-by:

Modify region_add() to keep track of regions(pages) added to the reserve map and return this value. The return value can be compared to the return value of region_chg() to determine if the map was modified between calls. Make vma_commit_reservation() also pass along the return value of region_add(). In the normal case, we want vma_commit_reservation to return the same value as the preceding call to vma_needs_reservation. Create a common __vma_reservation_common routine to help keep the special case return values in sync Signed-off-by:

While working on hugetlbfs fallocate support, I noticed the following race in the existing code. It is unlikely that this race is hit very often in the current code. However, if more functionality to add and remove pages to hugetlbfs mappings (such as fallocate) is added the likelihood of hitting this race will increase. alloc_huge_page and hugetlb_reserve_pages use information from the reserve map to determine if there are enough available huge pages to complete the operation, as well as adjust global reserve and subpool usage counts. The order of operations is as follows: - call region_chg() to determine the expected change based on reserve map - determine if enough resources are available for this operation - adjust global counts based on the expected change - call region_add() to update the reserve map The issue is that reserve map could change between the call to region_chg and region_add. In this case, the counters which were adjusted based on the output of region_chg will not be correct. In order to hit this race today, there must be an existing shared hugetlb mmap created with the MAP_NORESERVE flag. A page fault to allocate a huge page via this mapping must occur at the same another task is mapping the same region without the MAP_NORESERVE flag. The patch set does not prevent the race from happening. Rather, it adds simple functionality to detect when the race has occurred. If a race is detected, then the incorrect counts are adjusted. Review comments pointed out the need for documentation of the existing region/reserve map routines. This patch set also adds documentation in this area. This patch (of 3): This is a documentation only patch and does not modify any code. Descriptions of the routines used for reserve map/region tracking are added. Signed-off-by:

There is a very subtle difference between mmap()+mlock() vs mmap(MAP_LOCKED) semantic. The former one fails if the population of the area fails while the later one doesn't. This basically means that mmap(MAPLOCKED) areas might see major fault after mmap syscall returns which is not the case for mlock. mmap man page has already been altered but Documentation/vm/unevictable-lru.txt deserves a clarification as well.
