Since the introduction of FAULT_FLAG_SIZE to the vm_fault flag, it has been somewhat painful with getting the flags set and removed at the correct locations. More than one kernel oops was introduced due to difficulties of getting the placement correctly. Remove the flag values and introduce an input parameter to huge_fault that indicates the size of the page entry. This makes the code easier to trace and should avoid the issues we see with the fault flags where removal of the flag was necessary in the fallback paths.

Add transparent huge PUD pages support for device DAX by adding a pud_fault handler. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/148545060002.17912.6765687780007547551.stgit@djiang5-desk3.ch.intel.comSigned-off-by:

The current transparent hugepage code only supports PMDs. This patch adds support for transparent use of PUDs with DAX. It does not include support for anonymous pages. x86 support code also added. Most of this patch simply parallels the work that was done for huge PMDs. The only major difference is how the new ->pud_entry method in mm_walk works. The ->pmd_entry method replaces the ->pte_entry method, whereas the ->pud_entry method works along with either ->pmd_entry or ->pte_entry. The pagewalk code takes care of locking the PUD before calling ->pud_walk, so handlers do not need to worry whether the PUD is stable.

Patch series "1G transparent hugepage support for device dax", v2. The following series implements support for 1G trasparent hugepage on x86 for device dax. The bulk of the code was written by Mathew Wilcox a while back supporting transparent 1G hugepage for fs DAX. I have forward ported the relevant bits to 4.10-rc. The current submission has only the necessary code to support device DAX. Comments from Dan Williams: So the motivation and intended user of this functionality mirrors the motivation and users of 1GB page support in hugetlbfs. Given expected capacities of persistent memory devices an in-memory database may want to reduce tlb pressure beyond what they can already achieve with 2MB mappings of a device-dax file. We have customer feedback to that effect as Willy mentioned in his previous version of these patches [1]. [1]: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/1/31/52 Comments from Nilesh @ Oracle: There are applications which have a process model; and if you assume 10,000 processes attempting to mmap all the 6TB memory available on a server; we are looking at the following: processes : 10,000 memory : 6TB pte @ 4k page size: 8 bytes / 4K of memory * #processes = 6TB / 4k * 8 * 10000 = 1.5GB * 80000 = 120,000GB pmd @ 2M page size: 120,000 / 512 = ~240GB pud @ 1G page size: 240GB / 512 = ~480MB As you can see with 2M pages, this system will use up an exorbitant amount of DRAM to hold the page tables; but the 1G pages finally brings it down to a reasonable level. Memory sizes will keep increasing; so this number will keep increasing. An argument can be made to convert the applications from process model to thread model, but in the real world that may not be always practical. Hopefully this helps explain the use case where this is valuable. This patch (of 3): In preparation for adding the ability to handle PUD pages, convert vm_operations_struct.pmd_fault to vm_operations_struct.huge_fault. The vm_fault structure is extended to include a union of the different page table pointers that may be needed, and three flag bits are reserved to indicate which type of pointer is in the union.

As suggested by Vlastimil Babka and Tejun Heo, this patch uses a static work_struct to co-ordinate the draining of per-cpu pages on the workqueue. Only one task can drain at a time but this is better than the previous scheme that allowed multiple tasks to send IPIs at a time. One consideration is whether parallel requests should synchronise against each other. This patch does not synchronise for a global drain as the common case for such callers is expected to be multiple parallel direct reclaimers competing for pages when the watermark is close to min. Draining the per-cpu list is unlikely to make much progress and serialising the drain is of dubious merit. Drains are synchonrised for callers such as memory hotplug and CMA that care about the drain being complete when the function returns.

Vlastimil Babka authored
Since commit 682a3385 ("mm, page_alloc: inline the fast path of the zonelist iterator") we replace a NULL nodemask with cpuset_current_mems_allowed in the fast path, so that get_page_from_freelist() filters nodes allowed by the cpuset via for_next_zone_zonelist_nodemask(). In that case it's pointless to additionaly check __cpuset_zone_allowed() in each iteration, which we can avoid by not adding ALLOC_CPUSET to alloc_flags in that scenario. This saves some cycles in the allocator fast path on systems with one or more non-root cpuset configured. In the slow path, ALLOC_CPUSET is reset according to __alloc_pages_slowpath(). Without configured cpusets, this code is disabled by a static key. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170124150511.5710-2-vbabka@suse.czSigned-off-by:

Vlastimil Babka authored
The allocation fast path contains two similar checks for zoneref->zone being NULL, where zoneref points either to the first zone in the zonelist, or to the preferred zone. These can be NULL either due to empty zonelist, or no zone being compatible with given nodemask or task's cpuset. These checks are unnecessary, because the zonelist walks in first_zones_zonelist() and get_page_from_freelist() handle a NULL starting zoneref->zone or preferred_zoneref->zone safely. It's safe to fallback to __alloc_pages_slowpath() where we also have the check early enough. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170124150511.5710-1-vbabka@suse.czSigned-off-by:

zram_reset_device() waits for ongoing writepage pages to be completed by zram->refcount logic. However, it's pointless because before the reset, we prevent further opening of zram by zram->claim and flush all of pending IO by fsync_bdev so there should be no pending IO at the zram_reset_device(). So let's remove that code which is even broken due to the lack of wake_up elsewhere. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1485145031-11661-1-git-send-email-minchan@kernel.orgSigned-off-by:

Many workloads that allocate pages are not handling an interrupt at a time. As allocation requests may be from IRQ context, it's necessary to disable/enable IRQs for every page allocation. This cost is the bulk of the free path but also a significant percentage of the allocation path. This patch alters the locking and checks such that only irq-safe allocation requests use the per-cpu allocator. All others acquire the irq-safe zone->lock and allocate from the buddy allocator. It relies on disabling preemption to safely access the per-cpu structures. It could be slightly modified to avoid soft IRQs using it but it's not clear it's worthwhile. This modification may slow allocations from IRQ context slightly but the main gain from the per-cpu allocator is that it scales better for allocations from multiple contexts. There is an implicit assumption that intensive allocations from IRQ contexts on multiple CPUs from a single NUMA node are rare and that the fast majority of scaling issues are encountered in !IRQ contexts such as page faulting. It's worth noting that this patch is not required for a bulk page allocator but it significantly reduces the overhead. The following is results from a page allocator micro-benchmark.

Avoiding disabling/enabling overhead massively reduces overhead. Alloc overhead is roughly reduced by 14-20% in most cases. The free path is reduced by 26-46% and the total reduction is significant. Many users require zeroing of pages from the page allocator which is the vast cost of allocation.

The headline improvement is small as the overall fault cost, zeroing, page table insertion etc dominate relative to disabling/enabling IRQs in the per-cpu allocator. Similarly, little benefit was seen on networking benchmarks both localhost and between physical server/clients where other costs dominate. It's possible that this will only be noticable on very high speed networks.

The per-cpu page allocator can be drained immediately via drain_all_pages() which sends IPIs to every CPU. In the next patch, the per-cpu allocator will only be used for interrupt-safe allocations which prevents draining it from IPI context. This patch uses workqueues to drain the per-cpu lists instead. This is slower but no slowdown during intensive reclaim was measured and the paths that use drain_all_pages() are not that sensitive to performance. This is particularly true as the path would only be triggered when reclaim is failing. It also makes a some sense to avoid storming a machine with IPIs when it's under memory pressure. Arguably, it should be further adjusted so that only one caller at a time is draining pages but it's beyond the scope of the current patch.

Patch series "Use per-cpu allocator for !irq requests and prepare for a bulk allocator", v5. This series is motivated by a conversation led by Jesper Dangaard Brouer at the last LSF/MM proposing a generic page pool for DMA-coherent pages. Part of his motivation was due to the overhead of allocating multiple order-0 that led some drivers to use high-order allocations and splitting them. This is very slow in some cases. The first two patches in this series restructure the page allocator such that it is relatively easy to introduce an order-0 bulk page allocator. A patch exists to do that and has been handed over to Jesper until an in-kernel users is created. The third patch prevents the per-cpu allocator being drained from IPI context as that can potentially corrupt the list after patch four is merged. The final patch alters the per-cpu alloctor to make it exclusive to !irq requests. This cuts allocation/free overhead by roughly 30%. Performance tests from both Jesper and me are included in the patch. This patch (of 4): buffered_rmqueue removes a page from a given zone and uses the per-cpu list for order-0. This is fine but a hypothetical caller that wanted multiple order-0 pages has to disable/reenable interrupts multiple times. This patch structures buffere_rmqueue such that it's relatively easy to build a bulk order-0 page allocator. There is no functional change.

We noticed a performance regression when moving hadoop workloads from 3.10 kernels to 4.0 and 4.6. This is accompanied by increased pageout activity initiated by kswapd as well as frequent bursts of allocation stalls and direct reclaim scans. Even lowering the dirty ratios to the equivalent of less than 1% of memory would not eliminate the issue, suggesting that dirty pages concentrate where the scanner is looking. This can be traced back to recent efforts of thrash avoidance. Where 3.10 would not detect refaulting pages and continuously supply clean cache to the inactive list, a thrashing workload on 4.0+ will detect and activate refaulting pages right away, distilling used-once pages on the inactive list much more effectively. This is by design, and it makes sense for clean cache. But for the most part our workload's cache faults are refaults and its use-once cache is from streaming writes. We end up with most of the inactive list dirty, and we don't go after the active cache as long as we have use-once pages around. But waiting for writes to avoid reclaiming clean cache that *might* refault is a bad trade-off. Even if the refaults happen, reads are faster than writes. Before getting bogged down on writeback, reclaim should first look at *all* cache in the system, even active cache. To accomplish this, activate pages that are dirty or under writeback when they reach the end of the inactive LRU. The pages are marked for immediate reclaim, meaning they'll get moved back to the inactive LRU tail as soon as they're written back and become reclaimable. But in the meantime, by reducing the inactive list to only immediately reclaimable pages, we allow the scanner to deactivate and refill the inactive list with clean cache from the active list tail to guarantee forward progress.

Dirty pages can easily reach the end of the LRU while there are still clean pages to reclaim around. Don't let kswapd write them back just because there are a lot of them. It costs more CPU to find the clean pages, but that's almost certainly better than to disrupt writeback from the flushers with LRU-order single-page writes from reclaim. And the flushers have been woken up by that point, so we spend IO capacity on flushing and CPU capacity on finding the clean cache. Only start writing dirty pages if they have cycled around the LRU twice now and STILL haven't been queued on the IO device. It's possible that the dirty pages are so sparsely distributed across different bdis, inodes, memory cgroups, that the flushers take forever to get to the ones we want reclaimed. Once we see them twice on the LRU, we know that's the quicker way to find them, so do LRU writeback. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170123181641.23938-5-hannes@cmpxchg.orgSigned-off-by:

Memory pressure can put dirty pages at the end of the LRU without anybody running into dirty limits. Don't start writing individual pages from kswapd while the flushers might be asleep. Unlike the old direct reclaim flusher wakeup (removed in the next patch) that flushes the number of pages just scanned, this patch wakes the flushers for all outstanding dirty pages. That seemed to perform better in a synthetic test that pushes dirty pages to the end of the LRU and into reclaim, because we know LRU aging outstrips writeback already, and this way we give younger dirty pages a headstart rather than wait until reclaim runs into them as well. It also means less plugging and risk of exhausting the struct request pool from reclaim. There is a concern that this will cause temporary files that used to get dirtied and truncated before writeback to now get written to disk under memory pressure. If this turns out to be a real problem, we'll have to revisit this and tame the reclaim flusher wakeups.

Patch series "mm: vmscan: fix kswapd writeback regression". We noticed a regression on multiple hadoop workloads when moving from 3.10 to 4.0 and 4.6, which involves kswapd getting tangled up in page writeout, causing direct reclaim herds that also don't make progress. I tracked it down to the thrash avoidance efforts after 3.10 that make the kernel better at keeping use-once cache and use-many cache sorted on the inactive and active list, with more aggressive protection of the active list as long as there is inactive cache. Unfortunately, our workload's use-once cache is mostly from streaming writes. Waiting for writes to avoid potential reloads in the future is not a good tradeoff. These patches do the following: 1. Wake the flushers when kswapd sees a lump of dirty pages. It's possible to be below the dirty background limit and still have cache velocity push them through the LRU. So start a-flushin'. 2. Let kswapd only write pages that have been rotated twice. This makes sure we really tried to get all the clean pages on the inactive list before resorting to horrible LRU-order writeback. 3. Move rotating dirty pages off the inactive list. Instead of churning or waiting on page writeback, we'll go after clean active cache. This might lead to thrashing, but in this state memory demand outstrips IO speed anyway, and reads are faster than writes. Mel backported the series to 4.10-rc5 with one minor conflict and ran a couple of tests on it. Mix of read/write random workload didn't show anything interesting. Write-only database didn't show much difference in performance but there were slight reductions in IO -- probably in the noise. simoop did show big differences although not as big as Mel expected. This is Chris Mason's workload that similate the VM activity of hadoop.

Still, 95% of write latency (p95-write) is halved by the series and allocation latency is way down. Direct reclaim activity is one fifth of what it was according to vmstats. Kswapd activity is higher but this is not necessarily surprising. Kswapd efficiency is unchanged at 99% (99% of pages scanned were reclaimed) but direct reclaim efficiency went from 77% to 99% In the vanilla kernel, 627MB of data was written back from reclaim context. With the series, no data was written back. With or without the patch, pages are being immediately reclaimed after writeback completes. However, with the patch, only 1/8th of the pages are reclaimed like this. This patch (of 5): We have an elaborate dirty/writeback throttling mechanism inside the reclaim scanner, but for that to work the pages have to go through shrink_page_list() and get counted for what they are. Otherwise, we mess up the LRU order and don't match reclaim speed to writeback. Especially during deactivation, there is never a reason to skip dirty pages; nothing is even trying to write them out from there. Don't mess up the LRU order for nothing, shuffle these pages along.

Patch series "userfaultfd: non-cooperative: add madvise() event for MADV_REMOVE request". These patches add notification of madvise(MADV_REMOVE) event to non-cooperative userfaultfd monitor. The first pacth renames EVENT_MADVDONTNEED to EVENT_REMOVE along with relevant functions and structures. Using _REMOVE instead of _MADVDONTNEED describes the event semantics more clearly and I hope it's not too late for such change in the ABI. This patch (of 3): The UFFD_EVENT_MADVDONTNEED purpose is to notify uffd monitor about removal of certain range from address space tracked by userfaultfd. Hence, UFFD_EVENT_REMOVE seems to better reflect the operation semantics. Respectively, 'madv_dn' field of uffd_msg is renamed to 'remove' and the madvise_userfault_dontneed callback is renamed to userfaultfd_remove.

Some architectures have a set of zero pages (coloured zero pages) instead of only one zero page, in order to improve the cache performance. In those cases, the kernel samepage merger (KSM) would merge all the allocated pages that happen to be filled with zeroes to the same deduplicated page, thus losing all the advantages of coloured zero pages. This behaviour is noticeable when a process accesses large arrays of allocated pages containing zeroes. A test I conducted on s390 shows that there is a speed penalty when KSM merges such pages, compared to not merging them or using actual zero pages from the start without breaking the COW. This patch fixes this behaviour. When coloured zero pages are present, the checksum of a zero page is calculated during initialisation, and compared with the checksum of the current canditate during merging. In case of a match, the normal merging routine is used to merge the page with the correct coloured zero page, which ensures the candidate page is checked to be equal to the target zero page. A sysfs entry is also added to toggle this behaviour, since it can potentially introduce performance regressions, especially on architectures without coloured zero pages. The default value is disabled, for backwards compatibility. With this patch, the performance with KSM is the same as with non COW-broken actual zero pages, which is also the same as without KSM.

Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman: "There is a lot here. A lot of these changes result in subtle user visible differences in kernel behavior. I don't expect anything will care but I will revert/fix things immediately if any regressions show up. From Seth Forshee there is a continuation of the work to make the vfs ready for unpriviled mounts. We had thought the previous changes prevented the creation of files outside of s_user_ns of a filesystem, but it turns we missed the O_CREAT path. Ooops. Pavel Tikhomirov and Oleg Nesterov worked together to fix a long standing bug in the implemenation of PR_SET_CHILD_SUBREAPER where only children that are forked after the prctl are considered and not children forked before the prctl. The only known user of this prctl systemd forks all children after the prctl. So no userspace regressions will occur. Holding earlier forked children to the same rules as later forked children creates a semantic that is sane enough to allow checkpoing of processes that use this feature. There is a long delayed change by Nikolay Borisov to limit inotify instances inside a user namespace. Michael Kerrisk extends the API for files used to maniuplate namespaces with two new trivial ioctls to allow discovery of the hierachy and properties of namespaces. Konstantin Khlebnikov with the help of Al Viro adds code that when a network namespace exits purges it's sysctl entries from the dcache. As in some circumstances this could use a lot of memory. Vivek Goyal fixed a bug with stacked filesystems where the permissions on the wrong inode were being checked. I continue previous work on ptracing across exec. Allowing a file to be setuid across exec while being ptraced if the tracer has enough credentials in the user namespace, and if the process has CAP_SETUID in it's own namespace. Proc files for setuid or otherwise undumpable executables are now owned by the root in the user namespace of their mm. Allowing debugging of setuid applications in containers to work better. A bug I introduced with permission checking and automount is now fixed. The big change is to mark the mounts that the kernel initiates as a result of an automount. This allows the permission checks in sget to be safely suppressed for this kind of mount. As the permission check happened when the original filesystem was mounted. Finally a special case in the mount namespace is removed preventing unbounded chains in the mount hash table, and making the semantics simpler which benefits CRIU. The vfs fix along with related work in ima and evm I believe makes us ready to finish developing and merge fully unprivileged mounts of the fuse filesystem. The cleanups of the mount namespace makes discussing how to fix the worst case complexity of umount. The stacked filesystem fixes pave the way for adding multiple mappings for the filesystem uids so that efficient and safer containers can be implemented" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: proc/sysctl: Don't grab i_lock under sysctl_lock. vfs: Use upper filesystem inode in bprm_fill_uid() proc/sysctl: prune stale dentries during unregistering mnt: Tuck mounts under others instead of creating shadow/side mounts. prctl: propagate has_child_subreaper flag to every descendant introduce the walk_process_tree() helper nsfs: Add an ioctl() to return owner UID of a userns fs: Better permission checking for submounts exit: fix the setns() && PR_SET_CHILD_SUBREAPER interaction vfs: open() with O_CREAT should not create inodes with unknown ids nsfs: Add an ioctl() to return the namespace type proc: Better ownership of files for non-dumpable tasks in user namespaces exec: Remove LSM_UNSAFE_PTRACE_CAP exec: Test the ptracer's saved cred to see if the tracee can gain caps exec: Don't reset euid and egid when the tracee has CAP_SETUID inotify: Convert to using per-namespace limits

Pull drm updates from Dave Airlie: "This is the main drm pull request for v4.11. Nothing too major, the tinydrm and mmu-less support should make writing smaller drivers easier for some of the simpler platforms, and there are a bunch of documentation updates. Intel grew displayport MST audio support which is hopefully useful to people, and FBC is on by default for GEN9+ (so people know where to look for regressions). AMDGPU has a lot of fixes that would like new firmware files installed for some GPUs. Other than that it's pretty scattered all over. I may have a follow up pull request as I know BenH has a bunch of AST rework and fixes and I'd like to get those in once they've been tested by AST, and I've got at least one pull request I'm just trying to get the author to fix up. Core: - drm_mm reworked - Connector list locking and iterators - Documentation updates - Format handling rework - MMU-less support for fbdev helpers - drm_crtc_from_index helper - Core CRC API - Remove drm_framebuffer_unregister_private - Debugfs cleanup - EDID/Infoframe fixes - Release callback - Tinydrm support (smaller drivers for simple hw) panel: - Add support for some new simple panels i915: - FBC by default for gen9+ - Shared dpll cleanups and docs - GEN8 powerdomain cleanup - DMC support on GLK - DP MST audio support - HuC loading support - GVT init ordering fixes - GVT IOMMU workaround fix amdgpu/radeon: - Power/clockgating improvements - Preliminary SR-IOV support - TTM buffer priority and eviction fixes - SI DPM quirks removed due to firmware fixes - Powerplay improvements - VCE/UVD powergating fixes - Cleanup SI GFX code to match CI/VI - Support for > 2 displays on 3/5 crtc asics - SI headless fixes nouveau: - Rework securre boot code in prep for GP10x secure boot - Channel recovery improvements - Initial power budget code - MMU rework preperation vmwgfx: - Bunch of fixes and cleanups exynos: - Runtime PM support for MIC driver - Cleanups to use atomic helpers - UHD Support for TM2/TM2E boards - Trigger mode fix for Rinato board etnaviv: - Shader performance fix - Command stream validator fixes - Command buffer suballocator rockchip: - CDN DisplayPort support - IOMMU support for arm64 platform imx-drm: - Fix i.MX5 TV encoder probing - Remove lower fb size limits msm: - Support for HW cursor on MDP5 devices - DSI encoder cleanup - GPU DT bindings cleanup sti: - stih410 cleanups - Create fbdev at binding - HQVDP fixes - Remove stih416 chip functionality - DVI/HDMI mode selection fixes - FPS statistic reporting omapdrm: - IRQ code cleanup dwi-hdmi bridge: - Cleanups and fixes adv-bridge: - Updates for nexus sii8520 bridge: - Add interlace mode support - Rework HDMI and lots of fixes qxl: - probing/teardown cleanups ZTE drm: - HDMI audio via SPDIF interface - Video Layer overlay plane support - Add TV encoder output device atmel-hlcdc: - Rework fbdev creation logic tegra: - OF node fix fsl-dcu: - Minor fixes mali-dp: - Assorted fixes sunxi: - Minor fix" [ This was the "fixed" pull, that still had build warnings due to people not even having build tested the result.
