Patch series "Further set_page_dirty cleanups". Prompted by Christoph's recent patches, here are some more patches to improve the state of set_page_dirty(). They're all from the folio tree, so they've been tested to a certain extent. This patch (of 6): Nothing in __set_page_dirty() is specific to buffer_head, so move it to mm/page-writeback.c. That removes the only caller of account_page_dirtied() outside of page-writeback.c, so make it static.

Move the ramfs aops to libfs and reuse them for kernfs and configfs. Thosw two did not wire up ->set_page_dirty before and now get __set_page_dirty_no_writeback, which is the right one for no-writeback address_space usage. Drop the now unused exports of the libfs helpers only used for ramfs-style pagecache usage.

Asynchronously try to release dying cgwbs by switching attached inodes to the nearest living ancestor wb. It helps to get rid of per-cgroup writeback structures themselves and of pinned memory and block cgroups, which are significantly larger structures (mostly due to large per-cpu statistics data). This prevents memory waste and helps to avoid different scalability problems caused by large piles of dying cgroups. Reuse the existing mechanism of inode switching used for foreign inode detection. To speed things up batch up to 115 inode switching in a single operation (the maximum number is selected so that the resulting struct inode_switch_wbs_context can fit into 1024 bytes). Because every switching consists of two steps divided by an RCU grace period, it would be too slow without batching. Please note that the whole batch counts as a single operation (when increasing/decreasing isw_nr_in_flight). This allows to keep umounting working (flush the switching queue), however prevents cleanups from consuming the whole switching quota and effectively blocking the frn switching. A cgwb cleanup operation can fail due to different reasons (e.g. not enough memory, the cgwb has an in-flight/pending io, an attached inode in a wrong state, etc). In this case the next scheduled cleanup will make a new attempt. An attempt is made each time a new cgwb is offlined (in other words a memcg and/or a blkcg is deleted by a user). In the future an additional attempt scheduled by a timer can be implemented.

Currently only a single inode can be switched to another writeback structure at once. That means to switch an inode a separate inode_switch_wbs_context structure must be allocated, and a separate rcu callback and work must be scheduled. It's fine for the existing ad-hoc switching, which is not happening that often, but sub-optimal for massive switching required in order to release a writeback structure. To prepare for it, let's add a support for switching multiple inodes at once. Instead of containing a single inode pointer, inode_switch_wbs_context will contain a NULL-terminated array of inode pointers. inode_do_switch_wbs() will be called for each inode. To optimize the locking bdi->wb_switch_rwsem, old_wb's and new_wb's list_locks will be acquired and released only once altogether for all inodes. wb_wakeup() will be also be called only once. Instead of calling wb_put(old_wb) after each successful switch, wb_put_many() is introduced and used.

Currently there is no way to iterate over inodes attached to a specific cgwb structure. It limits the ability to efficiently reclaim the writeback structure itself and associated memory and block cgroup structures without scanning all inodes belonging to a sb, which can be prohibitively expensive. While dirty/in-active-writeback an inode belongs to one of the bdi_writeback's io lists: b_dirty, b_io, b_more_io and b_dirty_time. Once cleaned up, it's removed from all io lists. So the inode->i_io_list can be reused to maintain the list of inodes, attached to a bdi_writeback structure. This patch introduces a new wb->b_attached list, which contains all inodes which were dirty at least once and are attached to the given cgwb. Inodes attached to the root bdi_writeback structures are never placed on such list. The following patch will use this list to try to release cgwbs structures more efficiently.

Inode's wb switching requires two steps divided by an RCU grace period. It's currently implemented as an RCU callback inode_switch_wbs_rcu_fn(), which schedules inode_switch_wbs_work_fn() as a work. Switching to the rcu_work API allows to do the same in a cleaner and slightly shorter form.

isw_nr_in_flight is used to determine whether the inode switch queue should be flushed from the umount path. Currently it's increased after grabbing an inode and even scheduling the switch work. It means the umount path can walk past cleanup_offline_cgwb() with active inode references, which can result in a "Busy inodes after unmount." message and use-after-free issues (with inode->i_sb which gets freed). Fix it by incrementing isw_nr_in_flight before doing anything with the inode and decrementing in the case when switching wasn't scheduled. The problem hasn't yet been seen in the real life and was discovered by Jan Kara by looking into the code.

A full memory barrier is required between clearing SB_ACTIVE flag in generic_shutdown_super() and checking isw_nr_in_flight in cgroup_writeback_umount(), otherwise a new switch operation might be scheduled after atomic_read(&isw_nr_in_flight) returned 0. This would result in a non-flushed isw_wq, and a potential crash. The problem hasn't yet been seen in the real life and was discovered by Jan Kara by looking into the code.

Patch series "cgroup, blkcg: prevent dirty inodes to pin dying memory cgroups", v9. When an inode is getting dirty for the first time it's associated with a wb structure (see __inode_attach_wb()). It can later be switched to another wb (if e.g. some other cgroup is writing a lot of data to the same inode), but otherwise stays attached to the original wb until being reclaimed. The problem is that the wb structure holds a reference to the original memory and blkcg cgroups. So if an inode has been dirty once and later is actively used in read-only mode, it has a good chance to pin down the original memory and blkcg cgroups forever. This is often the case with services bringing data for other services, e.g. updating some rpm packages. In the real life it becomes a problem due to a large size of the memcg structure, which can easily be 1000x larger than an inode. Also a really large number of dying cgroups can raise different scalability issues, e.g. making the memory reclaim costly and less effective. To solve the problem inodes should be eventually detached from the corresponding writeback structure. It's inefficient to do it after every writeback completion. Instead it can be done whenever the original memory cgroup is offlined and writeback structure is getting killed. Scanning over a (potentially long) list of inodes and detach them from the writeback structure can take quite some time. To avoid scanning all inodes, attached inodes are kept on a new list (b_attached). To make it less noticeable to a user, the scanning and switching is performed from a work context. Big thanks to Jan Kara, Dennis Zhou, Hillf Danton and Tejun Heo for their ideas and contribution to this patchset. This patch (of 8): If an inode's state has I_WILL_FREE flag set, the inode will be freed soon, so there is no point in trying to switch the inode to a different cgwb. I_WILL_FREE was ignored since the introduction of the inode switching, so it looks like it doesn't lead to any noticeable issues for a user. This is why the patch is not intended for a stable backport.

Fix performance when BDI's share of ratio is 0. The issue is similar to commit 74d36944 ("writeback: Fix performance regression in wb_over_bg_thresh()"). Balance_dirty_pages and the writeback worker will also disagree on whether writeback when a BDI uses BDI_CAP_STRICTLIMIT and BDI's share of the thresh ratio is zero. For example, A thread on cpu0 writes 32 pages and then balance_dirty_pages, it will wake up background writeback and pauses because wb_dirty > wb->wb_thresh = 0 (share of thresh ratio is zero). A thread may runs on cpu0 again because scheduler prefers pre_cpu. Then writeback worker may runs on other cpus(1,2..) which causes the value of wb_stat(wb, WB_RECLAIMABLE) in wb_over_bg_thresh is 0 and does not writeback and returns. Thus, balance_dirty_pages keeps looping, sleeping and then waking up the worker who will do nothing. It remains stuck in this state until the writeback worker hit the right dirty cpu or the dirty pages expire. The fix that we should get the wb_stat_sum radically when thresh is low.

The page reporting won't be triggered if the freeing page can't come up with a free area, whose size is equal or bigger than the threshold (page reporting order). The default page reporting order, equal to @pageblock_order, is too huge on some architectures to trigger page reporting. One example is ARM64 when 64KB base page size is used. PAGE_SIZE: 64KB pageblock_order: 13 (512MB) MAX_ORDER: 14 This specifies the page reporting order to 5 (2MB) for this specific case so that page reporting can be triggered.

The page reporting order (threshold) is sticky to @pageblock_order by default. The page reporting can never be triggered because the freeing page can't come up with a free area like that huge. The situation becomes worse when the system memory becomes heavily fragmented. For example, the following configurations are used on ARM64 when 64KB base page size is enabled. In this specific case, the page reporting won't be triggered until the freeing page comes up with a 512MB free area. That's hard to be met, especially when the system memory becomes heavily fragmented. PAGE_SIZE: 64KB HPAGE_SIZE: 512MB pageblock_order: 13 (512MB) MAX_ORDER: 14 This allows the drivers to specify the page reporting order when the page reporting device is registered. It falls back to @pageblock_order if it's not specified by the driver. The existing users (hv_balloon and virtio_balloon) don't specify it and @pageblock_order is still taken as their page reporting order. So this shouldn't introduce any functional changes.

The macro PAGE_REPORTING_MIN_ORDER is defined as the page reporting threshold. It can't be adjusted at runtime. This introduces a variable (@page_reporting_order) to replace the marcro (PAGE_REPORTING_MIN_ORDER). MAX_ORDER is assigned to it initially, meaning the page reporting is disabled. It will be specified by driver if valid one is provided. Otherwise, it will fall back to @pageblock_order. It's also exported so that the page reporting order can be adjusted at runtime.

Patch series "mm/page_reporting: Make page reporting work on arm64 with 64KB page size", v4. The page reporting threshold is currently equal to @pageblock_order, which is 13 and 512MB on arm64 with 64KB base page size selected. The page reporting won't be triggered if the freeing page can't come up with a free area like that huge. The condition is hard to be met, especially when the system memory becomes fragmented. This series intends to solve the issue by having page reporting threshold as 5 (2MB) on arm64 with 64KB base page size. The patches are organized as: PATCH[1/4] Fix some coding style in __page_reporting_request(). PATCH[2/4] Represents page reporting order with variable so that it can be exported as module parameter. PATCH[3/4] Allows the device driver (e.g. virtio_balloon) to specify the page reporting order when the device info is registered. PATCH[4/4] Specifies the page reporting order to 5, corresponding to 2MB in size on ARM64 when 64KB base page size is used. This patch (of 4): The lines of comments would be starting with one, instead two space. This corrects the style.

mmap_lock will explicitly disable/enable preemption upon manipulating its local CPU variables. This is to be expected, but in this case, it doesn't play well with PREEMPT_RT. The preemption disabled code section also takes a spin-lock. Spin-locks in RT systems will try to schedule, which is exactly what we're trying to avoid. To mitigate this, convert the explicit preemption handling to local_locks. Which are RT aware, and will disable migration instead of preemption when PREEMPT_RT=y. The faulty call trace looks like the following: __mmap_lock_do_trace_*() preempt_disable() get_mm_memcg_path() cgroup_path() kernfs_path_from_node() spin_lock_irqsave() /* Scheduling while atomic! */ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210604163506.2103900-1-nsaenzju@redhat.com Fixes: 2b5067a8 ("mm: mmap_lock: add tracepoints around lock acquisition ") Signed-off-by: Nicolas Saenz Julienne <nsaenzju@redhat.com> Tested-by: Axel Rasmussen <axelrasmussen@google.com> Reviewed-by: Axel Rasmussen <axelrasmussen@google.com> Cc: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

On certain platforms, THP support could not just be validated via the build option CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE. Instead has_transparent_hugepage() also needs to be called upon to verify THP runtime support. Otherwise the debug test will just run into unusable THP helpers like in the case of a 4K hash config on powerpc platform [1]. This just moves all pfn_pmd() and pfn_pud() after THP runtime validation with has_transparent_hugepage() which prevents the mentioned problem.

grab_mapping_entry() has a bug in handling of ENOMEM condition. Suppose we have a PMD entry at index i which we are downgrading to a PTE entry. grab_mapping_entry() will set pmd_downgrade to true, lock the entry, clear the entry in xarray, and decrement mapping->nrpages. The it will call: entry = dax_make_entry(pfn_to_pfn_t(0), flags); dax_lock_entry(xas, entry); which inserts new PTE entry into xarray. However this may fail allocating the new node. We handle this by: if (xas_nomem(xas, mapping_gfp_mask(mapping) & ~__GFP_HIGHMEM)) goto retry; however pmd_downgrade stays set to true even though 'entry' returned from get_unlocked_entry() will be NULL now. And we will go again through the downgrade branch. This is mostly harmless except that mapping->nrpages is decremented again and we temporarily have an invalid entry stored in xarray. Fix the problem by setting pmd_downgrade to false each time we lookup the entry we work with so that it matches the entry we found.

This commit contains 3 modifications: 1. Convert the type of jiffies_scan_wait to "unsigned long". 2. Use READ/WRITE_ONCE() for accessing "jiffies_scan_wait". 3. Fix the possible wrong memory scanning period. If you set a large memory scanning period like blow, then the "secs" variable will be non-zero, however the value of "jiffies_scan_wait" will be zero. echo "scan=0x10000000" > /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak It is because the type of the msecs_to_jiffies()'s parameter is "unsigned int", and the "secs * 1000" is larger than its max value. This in turn leads a unexpected jiffies_scan_wait, maybe zero. We corret it by replacing kstrtoul() with kstrtouint(), and check the msecs to prevent it larger than UINT_MAX.

When running the kernel with panic_on_taint, the usual slub debug error messages are not being printed when object corruption happens. That's because we panic in add_taint(), which is called before printing the additional information. This is a bit unfortunate as the error messages are actually very useful, especially before a panic. Let's fix this by moving add_taint() after the errors are printed on the console.

alloc_calls and free_calls implementation in sysfs have two issues, one is PAGE_SIZE limitation of sysfs and other is it does not adhere to "one value per file" rule. To overcome this issues, move the alloc_calls and free_calls implementation to debugfs. Debugfs cache will be created if SLAB_STORE_USER flag is set.

Obscuring the pointers that slub shows when debugging makes for some confusing slub debug messages: Padding overwritten. 0x0000000079f0674a-0x000000000d4dce17 Those addresses are hashed for kernel security reasons. If we're trying to be secure with slub_debug on the commandline we have some big problems given that we dump whole chunks of kernel memory to the kernel logs. Let's force on the no_hash_pointers commandline flag when slub_debug is on the commandline. This makes slub debug messages more meaningful and if by chance a kernel address is in some slub debug object dump we will have a better chance of figuring out what went wrong. Note that we don't use %px in the slub code because we want to reduce the number of places that %px is used in the kernel. This also nicely prints a big fat warning at kernel boot if slub_debug is on the commandline so that we know that this kernel shouldn't be used on production systems.

Petch series "slub: Print non-hashed pointers in slub debugging", v3. I was doing some debugging recently and noticed that my pointers were being hashed while slub_debug was on the kernel commandline. Let's force on the no hash pointer option when slub_debug is on the kernel commandline so that the prints are more meaningful. The first two patches are something else I noticed while looking at the code. The message argument is never used so the debugging messages are not as clear as they could be and the slub_debug=- behavior seems to be busted. Then there's a printf fixup from Joe and the final patch is the one that force disables pointer hashing. This patch (of 4): Passing slub_debug=- on the kernel commandline is supposed to disable slub debugging. This is especially useful with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON where the default is to have slub debugging enabled in the build. Due to some code reorganization this behavior was dropped, but the code to make it work mostly stuck around. Restore the previous behavior by disabling the static key when we parse the commandline and see that we're trying to disable slub debugging.

SLUB has resiliency_test() function which is hidden behind #ifdef SLUB_RESILIENCY_TEST that is not part of Kconfig, so nobody runs it. KUnit should be a proper replacement for it. Try changing byte in redzone after allocation and changing pointer to next free node, first byte, 50th byte and redzone byte. Check if validation finds errors. There are several differences from the original resiliency test: Tests create own caches with known state instead of corrupting shared kmalloc caches. The corruption of freepointer uses correct offset, the original resiliency test got broken with freepointer changes. Scratch changing random byte test, because it does not have meaning in this form where we need deterministic results. Add new option CONFIG_SLUB_KUNIT_TEST in Kconfig. Tests next_pointer, first_word and clobber_50th_byte do not run with KASAN option on. Because the test deliberately modifies non-allocated objects. Use kunit_resource to count errors in cache and silence bug reports. Count error whenever slab_bug() or slab_fix() is called or when the count of pages is wrong.
