Revert 5ff7091f ("mm, mmu_notifier: annotate mmu notifiers with blockable invalidate callbacks"). MMU_INVALIDATE_DOES_NOT_BLOCK flags was the only one used and it is no longer needed since 93065ac7 ("mm, oom: distinguish blockable mode for mmu notifiers"). We now have a full support for per range !blocking behavior so we can drop the stop gap workaround which the per notifier flag was used for.

If invalidate_range_start() is called for !blocking mode then all callbacks have to guarantee they will no block/sleep. The same obviously applies to invalidate_range_end because this operation pairs with the former and they are called from the same context. Make sure this is appropriately documented.

Tetsuo Handa has reported that it is possible to bypass the short sleep for PF_WQ_WORKER threads which was introduced by commit 373ccbe5 ("mm, vmstat: allow WQ concurrency to discover memory reclaim doesn't make any progress") and lock up the system if OOM. The primary reason is that WQ_MEM_RECLAIM WQs are not guaranteed to run even when they have a rescuer available. Those workers might be essential for reclaim to make a forward progress, however. If we are too unlucky all the allocations requests can get stuck waiting for a WQ_MEM_RECLAIM work item and the system is essentially stuck in an OOM condition without much hope to move on. Tetsuo has seen the reclaim stuck on drain_local_pages_wq or xlog_cil_push_work (xfs). There might be others. Since should_reclaim_retry() should be a natural reschedule point, let's do the short sleep for PF_WQ_WORKER threads unconditionally in order to guarantee that other pending work items are started. This will workaround this problem and it is less fragile than hunting down when the sleep is missed. Having a single sleeping point is more robust.

I've noticed, that dying memory cgroups are often pinned in memory by a single pagecache page. Even under moderate memory pressure they sometimes stayed in such state for a long time. That looked strange. My investigation showed that the problem is caused by applying the LRU pressure balancing math: scan = div64_u64(scan * fraction[lru], denominator), where denominator = fraction[anon] + fraction[file] + 1. Because fraction[lru] is always less than denominator, if the initial scan size is 1, the result is always 0. This means the last page is not scanned and has no chances to be reclaimed. Fix this by rounding up the result of the division. In practice this change significantly improves the speed of dying cgroups reclaim.

Memcg charge is batched using per-cpu stocks, so an offline memcg can be pinned by a cached charge up to a moment, when a process belonging to some other cgroup will charge some memory on the same cpu. In other words, cached charges can prevent a memory cgroup from being reclaimed for some time, without any clear need. Let's optimize it by explicit draining of all stocks on css offlining. As draining is performed asynchronously, and is skipped if any parallel draining is happening, it's cheap. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180827162621.30187-2-guro@fb.comSigned-off-by:

If CONFIG_VMAP_STACK is set, kernel stacks are allocated using __vmalloc_node_range() with __GFP_ACCOUNT. So kernel stack pages are charged against corresponding memory cgroups on allocation and uncharged on releasing them. The problem is that we do cache kernel stacks in small per-cpu caches and do reuse them for new tasks, which can belong to different memory cgroups. Each stack page still holds a reference to the original cgroup, so the cgroup can't be released until the vmap area is released. To make this happen we need more than two subsequent exits without forks in between on the current cpu, which makes it very unlikely to happen. As a result, I saw a significant number of dying cgroups (in theory, up to 2 * number_of_cpu + number_of_tasks), which can't be released even by significant memory pressure. As a cgroup structure can take a significant amount of memory (first of all, per-cpu data like memcg statistics), it leads to a noticeable waste of memory.

Dmitry Vyukov authored
Slub does not call kmalloc_slab() for sizes > KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE, instead it falls back to kmalloc_large(). For slab KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE == KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE and it calls kmalloc_slab() for all allocations relying on NULL return value for over-sized allocations. This inconsistency leads to unwanted warnings from kmalloc_slab() for over-sized allocations for slab. Returning NULL for failed allocations is the expected behavior. Make slub and slab code consistent by checking size > KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE in slab before calling kmalloc_slab(). While we are here also fix the check in kmalloc_slab(). We should check against KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE rather than KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE. It all kinda worked because for slab the constants are the same, and slub always checks the size against KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE before kmalloc_slab(). But if we get there with size > KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE anyhow bad things will happen. For example, in case of a newly introduced bug in slub code. Also move the check in kmalloc_slab() from function entry to the size > 192 case. This partially compensates for the additional check in slab code and makes slub code a bit faster (at least theoretically). Also drop __GFP_NOWARN in the warning check. This warning means a bug in slab code itself, user-passed flags have nothing to do with it. Nothing of this affects slob.

To fix, reset the check_shmem_swap flag to false. There's also related bug which sets mss->swap to shmem_swapped, which in the context of smaps_rollup overwrites any value accumulated from previous vma's. Fix that as well. Note that the report suggests a regression between 4.17.19 and 4.19-rc7, which makes the 4.19 series ending with commit 258f669e ("mm: /proc/pid/smaps_rollup: convert to single value seq_file") suspicious. But the mss was reused for rollup since 493b0e9d ("mm: add /proc/pid/smaps_rollup") so let's play it safe with the stable backport.

It's really time to get this into a regression test somewhere so I stop breaking it. Thanks to Zong for resurrecting it again! - Various fixes that resulted from a year old review of our original patch set that I finally got around to. - Various improvements to SMP support, largely based around having switched to logical hart numbering, as well as some interrupt improvements. This one is in the same patch set as above, thanks to Atish for sheparding everything though as my patch set was a bit of a mess. I'm pretty sure this is our largest patch set since the original kernel contribution, and it's certainly the one with the most contributors.
