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:

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.

The snprintf() function returns the number of bytes which would have been printed if the buffer was large enough. In other words it can return ">= remain" but this code assumes it returns "== remain". The run time impact of this bug is not very severe. The next iteration through the loop would trigger a WARN() when we pass a negative limit to snprintf(). We would then return success instead of -E2BIG. The kernel implementation of snprintf() will never return negatives so there is no need to check and I have deleted that dead code.

When checking the file name attribute, we want to ensure that it fits within the bounds of ATTR_RECORD. To do this, we should check that (attr record + file name offset + file name length) < (attr record + attr record length). However, the original check did not include the file name offset in the calculation. This means that corrupted on-disk metadata might not caught by the incorrect file name check, and lead to an invalid memory access. An example can be seen in the crash report of a memory corruption error found by Syzbot: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=a1a1e379b225812688566745c3e2f7242bffc246 Adding the file name offset to the validity check fixes this error and passes the Syzbot reproducer test.

The tab stop for Perl files is by default (at least in emacs) to be 4 spaces, where a tab is used for all 8 spaces. Add a local variable comment to make vim do the same by default, and this will help keep the file consistent in the future when others edit it via vim and not emacs.

Patch series "streamline_config.pl: Fix Perl spacing". Talking with John Hawley about how vim and emacs deal with Perl files with respect to tabs and spaces, I found that some of my Perl code in the kernel had inconsistent spacing. The way emacs handles Perl by default is to use 4 spaces per indent, but make all 8 spaces into a single tab. Vim does not do this by default. But if you add the vim variable control: # vim: softtabstop=4 to a perl file, it makes vim behave the same way as emacs. The first patch is to change all 8 spaces into a single tab (mostly from people editing the file with vim). The next patch adds the softtabstop variable to make vim act like emacs by default. This patch (of 2): As Perl code tends to have 4 space indentation, but uses tabs for every 8 spaces, make that consistent in the streamline_config.pl code. Replace all 8 spaces with a single tab.

gcc points out a mistake in the mca driver that goes back to before the git history: arch/ia64/kernel/mca_drv.c: In function 'init_record_index_pools': arch/ia64/kernel/mca_drv.c:346:54: error: expression does not compute the number of elements in this array; element typ e is 'int', not 'size_t' {aka 'long unsigned int'} [-Werror=sizeof-array-div] 346 | for (i = 1; i < sizeof sal_log_sect_min_sizes/sizeof(size_t); i++) | ^ This is the same as sizeof(size_t), which is two shorter than the actual array. Use the ARRAY_SIZE() macro to get the correct calculation instead.

kthread_worker: fix return value when kthread_mod_delayed_work() races with kthread_cancel_delayed_work_sync() kthread_mod_delayed_work() might race with kthread_cancel_delayed_work_sync() or another kthread_mod_delayed_work() call. The function lets the other operation win when it sees work->canceling counter set. And it returns @false. But it should return @true as it is done by the related workqueue API, see mod_delayed_work_on(). The reason is that the return value might be used for reference counting. It has to distinguish the case when the number of queued works has changed or stayed the same. The change is safe. kthread_mod_delayed_work() return value is not checked anywhere at the moment.
