BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1658270 In 19be0eaf ("mm: remove gup_flags FOLL_WRITE games from __get_user_pages()"), the mm code was changed from unsetting FOLL_WRITE after a COW was resolved to setting the (newly introduced) FOLL_COW instead. Simultaneously, the check in gup.c was updated to still allow writes with FOLL_FORCE set if FOLL_COW had also been set. However, a similar check in huge_memory.c was forgotten. As a result, remote memory writes to ro regions of memory backed by transparent huge pages cause an infinite loop in the kernel (handle_mm_fault sets FOLL_COW and returns 0 causing a retry, but follow_trans_huge_pmd bails out immidiately because `(flags & FOLL_WRITE) && !pmd_write(*pmd)` is true. While in this state the process is stil SIGKILLable, but little else works (e.g. no ptrace attach, no other signals). This is easily reproduced with the following code (assuming thp are set to always): #include <assert.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdint.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/wait.h> #include <unistd.h> #define TEST_SIZE 5 * 1024 * 1024 int main(void) { int status; pid_t child; int fd = open("/proc/self/mem", O_RDWR); void *addr = mmap(NULL, TEST_SIZE, PROT_READ, MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_PRIVATE, 0, 0); assert(addr != MAP_FAILED); pid_t parent_pid = getpid(); if ((child = fork()) == 0) { void *addr2 = mmap(NULL, TEST_SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_PRIVATE, 0, 0); assert(addr2 != MAP_FAILED); memset(addr2, 'a', TEST_SIZE); pwrite(fd, addr2, TEST_SIZE, (uintptr_t)addr); return 0; } assert(child == waitpid(child, &status, 0)); assert(WIFEXITED(status) && WEXITSTATUS(status) == 0); return 0; } Fix this by updating follow_trans_huge_pmd in huge_memory.c analogously to the update in gup.c in the original commit. The same pattern exists in follow_devmap_pmd. However, we should not be able to reach that check with FOLL_COW set, so add WARN_ONCE to make sure we notice if we ever do. Signed-off-by:

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1630924 There is a feature in Hyper-V ('Debug-VM --InjectNonMaskableInterrupt') which injects NMI to the guest. We may want to crash the guest and do kdump on this NMI by enabling unknown_nmi_panic. To make kdump succeed we need to allow the kdump kernel to re-establish VMBus connection so it will see VMBus devices (storage, network,..). To properly unload VMBus making it possible to start over during kdump we need to do the following: - Send an 'unload' message to the hypervisor. This can be done on any CPU so we do this the crashing CPU. - Receive the 'unload finished' reply message. WS2012R2 delivers this message to the CPU which was used to establish VMBus connection during module load and this CPU may differ from the CPU sending 'unload'. Receiving a VMBus message means the following: - There is a per-CPU slot in memory for one message. This slot can in theory be accessed by any CPU. - We get an interrupt on the CPU when a message was placed into the slot. - When we read the message we need to clear the slot and signal the fact to the hypervisor. In case there are more messages to this CPU pending the hypervisor will deliver the next message. The signaling is done by writing to an MSR so this can only be done on the appropriate CPU. To avoid doing cross-CPU work on crash we have vmbus_wait_for_unload() function which checks message slots for all CPUs in a loop waiting for the 'unload finished' messages. However, there is an issue which arises when these conditions are met: - We're crashing on a CPU which is different from the one which was used to initially contact the hypervisor. - The CPU which was used for the initial contact is blocked with interrupts disabled and there is a message pending in the message slot. In this case we won't be able to read the 'unload finished' message on the crashing CPU. This is reproducible when we receive unknown NMIs on all CPUs simultaneously: the first CPU entering panic() will proceed to crash and all other CPUs will stop themselves with interrupts disabled. The suggested solution is to handle unknown NMIs for Hyper-V guests on the first CPU which gets them only. This will allow us to rely on VMBus interrupt handler being able to receive the 'unload finish' message in case it is delivered to a different CPU. The issue is not reproducible on WS2016 as Debug-VM delivers NMI to the boot CPU only, WS2012R2 and earlier Hyper-V versions are affected. Signed-off-by:

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1655842 There have been several reports about pre-mature OOM killer invocation in 4.7 kernel when order-2 allocation request (for the kernel stack) invoked OOM killer even during basic workloads (light IO or even kernel compile on some filesystems). In all reported cases the memory is fragmented and there are no order-2+ pages available. There is usually a large amount of slab memory (usually dentries/inodes) and further debugging has shown that there are way too many unmovable blocks which are skipped during the compaction. Multiple reporters have confirmed that the current linux-next which includes [1] and [2] helped and OOMs are not reproducible anymore. A simpler fix for the late rc and stable is to simply ignore the compaction feedback and retry as long as there is a reclaim progress and we are not getting OOM for order-0 pages. We already do that for CONFING_COMPACTION=n so let's reuse the same code when compaction is enabled as well.

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1655842 Joonsoo has reported that he is able to trigger OOM for !costly high order requests (heavy fork() workload close the OOM) with the new oom detection rework. This is because we rely only on should_reclaim_retry when the compaction is disabled and it only checks watermarks for the requested order and so we might trigger OOM when there is a lot of free memory. It is not very clear what are the usual workloads when the compaction is disabled. Relying on high order allocations heavily without any mechanism to create those orders except for unbound amount of reclaim is certainly not a good idea. To prevent from potential regressions let's help this configuration some. We have to sacrifice the determinsm though because there simply is none here possible. should_compact_retry implementation for !CONFIG_COMPACTION, which was empty so far, will do watermark check for order-0 on all eligible zones. This will cause retrying until either the reclaim cannot make any further progress or all the zones are depleted even for order-0 pages. This means that the number of retries is basically unbounded for !costly orders but that was the case before the rework as well so this shouldn't regress.

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1655842 "mm: consider compaction feedback also for costly allocation" has removed the upper bound for the reclaim/compaction retries based on the number of reclaimed pages for costly orders. While this is desirable the patch did miss a mis interaction between reclaim, compaction and the retry logic. The direct reclaim tries to get zones over min watermark while compaction backs off and returns COMPACT_SKIPPED when all zones are below low watermark + 1<<order gap. If we are getting really close to OOM then __compaction_suitable can keep returning COMPACT_SKIPPED a high order request (e.g. hugetlb order-9) while the reclaim is not able to release enough pages to get us over low watermark. The reclaim is still able to make some progress (usually trashing over few remaining pages) so we are not able to break out from the loop. I have seen this happening with the same test described in "mm: consider compaction feedback also for costly allocation" on a swapless system. The original problem got resolved by "vmscan: consider classzone_idx in compaction_ready" but it shows how things might go wrong when we approach the oom event horizont. The reason why compaction requires being over low rather than min watermark is not clear to me. This check was there essentially since 56de7263 ("mm: compaction: direct compact when a high-order allocation fails"). It is clearly an implementation detail though and we shouldn't pull it into the generic retry logic while we should be able to cope with such eventuality. The only place in should_compact_retry where we retry without any upper bound is for compaction_withdrawn() case. Introduce compaction_zonelist_suitable function which checks the given zonelist and returns true only if there is at least one zone which would would unblock __compaction_suitable if more memory got reclaimed. In this implementation it checks __compaction_suitable with NR_FREE_PAGES plus part of the reclaimable memory as the target for the watermark check. The reclaimable memory is reduced linearly by the allocation order. The idea is that we do not want to reclaim all the remaining memory for a single allocation request just unblock __compaction_suitable which doesn't guarantee we will make a further progress. The new helper is then used if compaction_withdrawn() feedback was provided so we do not retry if there is no outlook for a further progress. !costly requests shouldn't be affected much - e.g. order-2 pages would require to have at least 64kB on the reclaimable LRUs while order-9 would need at least 32M which should be enough to not lock up.

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1655842 PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER retry logic is mostly handled inside should_reclaim_retry currently where we decide to not retry after at least order worth of pages were reclaimed or the watermark check for at least one zone would succeed after reclaiming all pages if the reclaim hasn't made any progress. Compaction feedback is mostly ignored and we just try to make sure that the compaction did at least something before giving up. The first condition was added by a41f24ea ("page allocator: smarter retry of costly-order allocations) and it assumed that lumpy reclaim could have created a page of the sufficient order. Lumpy reclaim, has been removed quite some time ago so the assumption doesn't hold anymore. Remove the check for the number of reclaimed pages and rely on the compaction feedback solely. should_reclaim_retry now only makes sure that we keep retrying reclaim for high order pages only if they are hidden by watermaks so order-0 reclaim makes really sense. should_compact_retry now keeps retrying even for the costly allocations. The number of retries is reduced wrt. !costly requests because they are less important and harder to grant and so their pressure shouldn't cause contention for other requests or cause an over reclaim. We also do not reset no_progress_loops for costly request to make sure we do not keep reclaiming too agressively. This has been tested by running a process which fragments memory: - compact memory - mmap large portion of the memory (1920M on 2GRAM machine with 2G of swapspace) - MADV_DONTNEED single page in PAGE_SIZE*((1UL<<MAX_ORDER)-1) steps until certain amount of memory is freed (250M in my test) and reduce the step to (step / 2) + 1 after reaching the end of the mapping - then run a script which populates the page cache 2G (MemTotal) from /dev/zero to a new file And then tries to allocate nr_hugepages=$(awk '/MemAvailable/{printf "%d\n", $2/(2*1024)}' /proc/meminfo) huge pages. root@test1:~# echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory;echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory; ./fragment-mem-and-run /root/alloc_hugepages.sh 1920M 250M Node 0, zone DMA 31 28 31 10 2 0 2 1 2 3 1 Node 0, zone DMA32 437 319 171 50 28 25 20 16 16 14 437 * This is the /proc/buddyinfo after the compaction Done fragmenting. size=2013265920 freed=262144000 Node 0, zone DMA 165 48 3 1 2 0 2 2 2 2 0 Node 0, zone DMA32 35109 14575 185 51 41 12 6 0 0 0 0 * /proc/buddyinfo after memory got fragmented Executing "/root/alloc_hugepages.sh" Eating some pagecache 508623+0 records in 508623+0 records out 2083319808 bytes (2.1 GB) copied, 11.7292 s, 178 MB/s Node 0, zone DMA 3 5 3 1 2 0 2 2 2 2 0 Node 0, zone DMA32 111 344 153 20 24 10 3 0 0 0 0 * /proc/buddyinfo after page cache got eaten Trying to allocate 129 129 * 129 hugepages requested and all of them granted.

So the patch not only makes the retry logic for costly requests more sensible the success rate is even higher. Signed-off-by:

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1655842 should_reclaim_retry will give up retries for higher order allocations if none of the eligible zones has any requested or higher order pages available even if we pass the watermak check for order-0. This is done because there is no guarantee that the reclaimable and currently free pages will form the required order. This can, however, lead to situations where the high-order request (e.g. order-2 required for the stack allocation during fork) will trigger OOM too early - e.g. after the first reclaim/compaction round. Such a system would have to be highly fragmented and there is no guarantee further reclaim/compaction attempts would help but at least make sure that the compaction was active before we go OOM and keep retrying even if should_reclaim_retry tells us to oom if - the last compaction round backed off or - we haven't completed at least MAX_COMPACT_RETRIES active compaction rounds. The first rule ensures that the very last attempt for compaction was not ignored while the second guarantees that the compaction has done some work. Multiple retries might be needed to prevent occasional pigggy backing of other contexts to steal the compacted pages before the current context manages to retry to allocate them. compaction_failed() is taken as a final word from the compaction that the retry doesn't make much sense. We have to be careful though because the first compaction round is MIGRATE_ASYNC which is rather weak as it ignores pages under writeback and gives up too easily in other situations. We therefore have to make sure that MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT mode has been used before we give up. With this logic in place we do not have to increase the migration mode unconditionally and rather do it only if the compaction failed for the weaker mode. A nice side effect is that the stronger migration mode is used only when really needed so this has a potential of smaller latencies in some cases. Please note that the compaction doesn't tell us much about how successful it was when returning compaction_made_progress so we just have to blindly trust that another retry is worthwhile and cap the number to something reasonable to guarantee a convergence. If the given number of successful retries is not sufficient for a reasonable workloads we should focus on the collected compaction tracepoints data and try to address the issue in the compaction code. If this is not feasible we can increase the retries limit. [mhocko@suse.com: fix warning] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160512061636.GA4200@dhcp22.suse.czSigned-off-by:

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1655842 Compaction can provide a wild variation of feedback to the caller. Many of them are implementation specific and the caller of the compaction (especially the page allocator) shouldn't be bound to specifics of the current implementation. This patch abstracts the feedback into three basic types: - compaction_made_progress - compaction was active and made some progress. - compaction_failed - compaction failed and further attempts to invoke it would most probably fail and therefore it is not worth retrying - compaction_withdrawn - compaction wasn't invoked for an implementation specific reasons. In the current implementation it means that the compaction was deferred, contended or the page scanners met too early without any progress. Retrying is still worthwhile.

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1655842 COMPACT_COMPLETE now means that compaction and free scanner met. This is not very useful information if somebody just wants to use this feedback and make any decisions based on that. The current caller might be a poor guy who just happened to scan tiny portion of the zone and that could be the reason no suitable pages were compacted. Make sure we distinguish the full and partial zone walks. Consumers should treat COMPACT_PARTIAL_SKIPPED as a potential success and be optimistic in retrying. The existing users of COMPACT_COMPLETE are conservatively changed to use COMPACT_PARTIAL_SKIPPED as well but some of them should be probably reconsidered and only defer the compaction only for COMPACT_COMPLETE with the new semantic.

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1655842 try_to_compact_pages() can currently return COMPACT_SKIPPED even when the compaction is defered for some zone just because zone DMA is skipped in 99% of cases due to watermark checks. This makes COMPACT_DEFERRED basically unusable for the page allocator as a feedback mechanism. Make sure we distinguish those two states properly and switch their ordering in the enum. This would mean that the COMPACT_SKIPPED will be returned only when all eligible zones are skipped. As a result COMPACT_DEFERRED handling for THP in __alloc_pages_slowpath will be more precise and we would bail out rather than reclaim. Signed-off-by:

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1656913 Commit 54adc010 ("nvme/quirk: Add a delay before checking for adapter readiness") introduced a quirk to adapters that cannot read the bit NVME_CSTS_RDY right after register NVME_REG_CC is set; these adapters need a delay or else the action of reading the bit NVME_CSTS_RDY could somehow corrupt adapter's registers state and it never recovers. When this quirk was added, we checked ctrl->tagset in order to avoid quirking in probe time, supposing we would never require such delay during probe. Well, it was too optimistic; we in fact need this quirk at probe time in some cases, like after a kexec. In some experiments, after abnormal shutdown of machine (aka power cord unplug), we booted into our bootloader in Power, which is a Linux kernel, and kexec'ed into another distro. If this kexec is too quick, we end up reaching the probe of NVMe adapter in that distro when adapter is in bad state (not fully initialized on our bootloader). What happens next is that nvme_wait_ready() is unable to complete, except if the quirk is enabled. So, this patch removes the original ctrl->tagset verification in order to enable the quirk even on probe time.

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1625318 pci_update_resource() updates a hardware BAR so its address matches the kernel's struct resource UNLESS it's a disabled ROM BAR. We only update those when we enable the ROM. It's not obvious from the code why ROM BARs should be handled specially. Apparently there are Matrox devices with defective ROM BARs that read as zero when disabled. That means that if pci_enable_rom() reads the disabled BAR, sets PCI_ROM_ADDRESS_ENABLE (without re-inserting the address), and writes it back, it would enable the ROM at address zero. Add comments and references to explain why we can't make the code look more rational. The code changes are from 755528c8 ("Ignore disabled ROM resources at setup") and 8085ce08 ("[PATCH] Fix PCI ROM mapping"). Link: https://lkml.org/lkml/2005/8/30/138Signed-off-by:

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1625318 Remove the assumption that IORESOURCE_ROM_ENABLE == PCI_ROM_ADDRESS_ENABLE. PCI_ROM_ADDRESS_ENABLE is the ROM enable bit defined by the PCI spec, so if we're reading or writing a BAR register value, that's what we should use. IORESOURCE_ROM_ENABLE is a corresponding bit in struct resource flags. Signed-off-by:

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1625318 pci_std_update_resource() only deals with standard BARs, so we don't have to worry about the complications of VF BARs in an SR-IOV capability. Compute the BAR address inline and remove pci_resource_bar(). That makes pci_iov_resource_bar() unused, so remove that as well. Signed-off-by:

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1625318 If we update a VF BAR while it's enabled, there are two potential problems: 1) Any driver that's using the VF has a cached BAR value that is stale after the update, and 2) We can't update 64-bit BARs atomically, so the intermediate state (new lower dword with old upper dword) may conflict with another device, and an access by a driver unrelated to the VF may cause a bus error. Warn about attempts to update VF BARs while they are enabled. This is a programming error, so use dev_WARN() to get a backtrace. Signed-off-by:

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1625318 Previously pci_update_resource() used the same code path for updating standard BARs and VF BARs in SR-IOV capabilities. Split the VF BAR update into a new pci_iov_update_resource() internal interface, which makes it simpler to compute the BAR address (we can get rid of pci_resource_bar() and pci_iov_resource_bar()). This patch: - Renames pci_update_resource() to pci_std_update_resource(), - Adds pci_iov_update_resource(), - Makes pci_update_resource() a wrapper that calls the appropriate one, No functional change intended.

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1625318 The BAR property bits (0-3 for memory BARs, 0-1 for I/O BARs) are supposed to be read-only, but we do save them in res->flags and include them when updating the BAR. Mask the I/O property bits with ~PCI_BASE_ADDRESS_IO_MASK (0x3) instead of PCI_REGION_FLAG_MASK (0xf) to make it obvious that we can't corrupt bits 2-3 of I/O addresses. Use PCI_ROM_ADDRESS_MASK for ROM BARs. This means we'll only check the top 21 bits (instead of the 28 bits we used to check) of a ROM BAR to see if the update was successful. Signed-off-by:

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1625318 VF BARs are read-only zero, so updating VF BARs will not have any effect. See the SR-IOV spec r1.1, sec 3.4.1.11. We already ignore these updates because of 70675e0b ("PCI: Don't try to restore VF BARs"); this merely restructures it slightly to make it easier to split updates for standard and SR-IOV BARs.

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1625318 Previously we enabled VFs and enable their memory space before calling pcibios_sriov_enable(). But pcibios_sriov_enable() may update the VF BARs: for example, on PPC PowerNV we may change them to manage the association of VFs to PEs. Because 64-bit BARs cannot be updated atomically, it's unsafe to update them while they're enabled. The half-updated state may conflict with other devices in the system. Call pcibios_sriov_enable() before enabling the VFs so any BAR updates happen while the VF BARs are disabled. [bhelgaas: changelog] Tested-by:

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1658091 commit 5d7400c4 upstream. Always stating PIN_CONFIG_BIAS_DISABLE is supported gives untrue output when examining /sys/kernel/debug/pinctrl/e6060000.pfc/pinconf-pins if the operation get_bias() is implemented but the pin is not handled by the get_bias() implementation. In that case the output will state that "input bias disabled" indicating that this pin has bias control support. Make support for PIN_CONFIG_BIAS_DISABLE depend on that the pin either supports SH_PFC_PIN_CFG_PULL_UP or SH_PFC_PIN_CFG_PULL_DOWN. This also solves the issue where SoC specific implementations print error messages if their particular implementation of {set,get}_bias() is called with a pin it does not know about. Signed-off-by:
