clear_refs_write() is called earlier than clear_soft_dirty() and it is more natural to clear VM_SOFTDIRTY (which belongs to VMA entry but not PTEs) that early instead of clearing it a way deeper inside call chain. Signed-off-by:

pte_file_mksoft_dirty operates with argument passed by a value and returns modified result thus we need to assign @ptfile here, otherwise itis a no-op which may lead to loss of the softdirty bit. Signed-off-by:

Hugh reported: | I noticed your soft_dirty work in install_file_pte(): which looked | good at first, until I realized that it's propagating the soft_dirty | of a pte it's about to zap completely, to the unrelated entry it's | about to insert in its place. Which seems very odd to me. Indeed this code ends up being nop in result -- pte_file_mksoft_dirty() operates with pte_t argument and returns new pte_t which were never used after. After looking more I think what we need is to soft-dirtify all newely remapped file pages because it should look like a new mapping for memory tracker. Signed-off-by:

Currently to allocate a page that should be charged to kmemcg (e.g. threadinfo), we pass __GFP_KMEMCG flag to the page allocator. The page allocated is then to be freed by free_memcg_kmem_pages. Apart from looking asymmetrical, this also requires intrusion to the general allocation path. So let's introduce separate functions that will alloc/free pages charged to kmemcg. The new functions are called alloc_kmem_pages and free_kmem_pages. They should be used when the caller actually would like to use kmalloc, but has to fall back to the page allocator for the allocation is large. They only differ from alloc_pages and free_pages in that besides allocating or freeing pages they also charge them to the kmem resource counter of the current memory cgroup.

We have only a few places where we actually want to charge kmem so instead of intruding into the general page allocation path with __GFP_KMEMCG it's better to explictly charge kmem there. All kmem charges will be easier to follow that way. This is a step towards removing __GFP_KMEMCG. It removes __GFP_KMEMCG from memcg caches' allocflags. Instead it makes slab allocation path call memcg_charge_kmem directly getting memcg to charge from the cache's memcg params. This also eliminates any possibility of misaccounting an allocation going from one memcg's cache to another memcg, because now we always charge slabs against the memcg the cache belongs to. That's why this patch removes the big comment to memcg_kmem_get_cache. Signed-off-by:

There used to be only one path out of __slab_alloc(), and ALLOC_SLOWPATH got bumped in that exit path. Now there are two, and a bunch of gotos. ALLOC_SLOWPATH can now get set more than once during a single call to __slab_alloc() which is pretty bogus. Here's the sequence: 1. Enter __slab_alloc(), fall through all the way to the stat(s, ALLOC_SLOWPATH); 2. hit 'if (!freelist)', and bump DEACTIVATE_BYPASS, jump to new_slab (goto #1) 3. Hit 'if (c->partial)', bump CPU_PARTIAL_ALLOC, goto redo (goto #2) 4. Fall through in the same path we did before all the way to stat(s, ALLOC_SLOWPATH) 5. bump ALLOC_REFILL stat, then return Doing this is obviously bogus. It keeps us from being able to accurately compare ALLOC_SLOWPATH vs. ALLOC_FASTPATH. It also means that the total number of allocs always exceeds the total number of frees. This patch moves stat(s, ALLOC_SLOWPATH) to be called from the same place that __slab_alloc() is. This makes it much less likely that ALLOC_SLOWPATH will get botched again in the spaghetti-code inside __slab_alloc(). Signed-off-by:

When the slab or slub allocators cannot allocate additional slab pages, they emit diagnostic information to the kernel log such as current number of slabs, number of objects, active objects, etc. This is always coupled with a page allocation failure warning since it is controlled by !__GFP_NOWARN. Suppress this out of memory warning if the allocator is configured without debug supported. The page allocation failure warning will indicate it is a failed slab allocation, the order, and the gfp mask, so this is only useful to diagnose allocator issues. Since CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG is already enabled by default for the slub allocator, there is no functional change with this patch. If debug is disabled, however, the warnings are now suppressed.

On system with 2TiB ram, current x86_64 have 128M as section size, and one memory_block only include one section. So will have 16400 entries under /sys/devices/system/memory/. Current code try to use block id to find block pointer in /sys for any section, and reuse that block pointer. that finding will take some time even after commit 7c243c71 ("mm: speedup in __early_pfn_to_nid") that will skip the search in that case during booting up. So solution could be increase block size just like SGI UV system did. (harded code to 2g). This patch is trying to probe the block size to make it match mmio remap size. for example, Intel Nehalem later system will have memory range [0, TOML), [4g, TOMH]. If the memory hole is 2g and total is 128g, TOM will be 2g, and TOM2 will be 130g. We could use 2g as block size instead of default 128M. That will reduce number of entries in /sys/devices/system/memory/ On system 6TiB system will reduce boot time by 35 seconds. Signed-off-by:

_PAGE_NUMA is currently an alias of _PROT_PROTNONE to trap NUMA hinting faults on x86. Care is taken such that _PAGE_NUMA is used only in situations where the VMA flags distinguish between NUMA hinting faults and prot_none faults. This decision was x86-specific and conceptually it is difficult requiring special casing to distinguish between PROTNONE and NUMA ptes based on context. Fundamentally, we only need the _PAGE_NUMA bit to tell the difference between an entry that is really unmapped and a page that is protected for NUMA hinting faults as if the PTE is not present then a fault will be trapped. Swap PTEs on x86-64 use the bits after _PAGE_GLOBAL for the offset. This patch shrinks the maximum possible swap size and uses the bit to uniquely distinguish between NUMA hinting ptes and swap ptes.

Since the input clusters is defined as type int, so it will overflow when shift left 20 bits and then lead to incorrect global bitmap i_size. Signed-off-by:

We found a race situation when dlm recovery and node joining occurs simultaneously if the network state is bad. N1 N4 start joining dlm and send query join to all live nodes set joining node to N1, return OK send query join to other live nodes and it may take a while call dlm_send_join_assert() to send assert join message when N2 is down, so keep trying to send message to N2 until find N2 is down send assert join message to N3, but connection is down with N3, so it may take a while become the recovery master for N2 and send begin reco message to other nodes in domain map but no N1 connection with N3 is rebuild, then send assert join to N4 call dlm_assert_joined_handler(), add N1 to domain_map dlm recovery done, send finalize message to nodes in domain map, including N1 receiving finalize message, trigger the BUG() because recovery master mismatch.

Revert commit 75f82eaa ("ocfs2: fix NULL pointer dereference when dismount and ocfs2rec simultaneously") because it may cause a umount hang while shutting down the truncate log. fix NULL pointer dereference when dismount and ocfs2rec simultaneously The situation is as followes: ocfs2_dismout_volume -> ocfs2_recovery_exit -> free osb->recovery_map -> ocfs2_truncate_shutdown -> lock global bitmap inode -> ocfs2_wait_for_recovery -> check whether osb->recovery_map->rm_used is zero Because osb->recovery_map is already freed, rm_used can be any other values, so it may yield umount hang. To prevent NULL pointer dereference while getting sys_root_inode, we use a osb_tl_disable flag to disable schedule osb_truncate_log_wq after truncate log shutdown. Signed-off-by:

We found there is a conversion deadlock when the owner of lockres happened to crash before send DLM_PROXY_AST_MSG for a downconverting lock. The situation is as follows: Node1 Node2 Node3 the owner of lockresA lock_1 granted at EX mode and call ocfs2_cluster_unlock to decrease ex_holders. converting lock_3 from NL to EX send DLM_PROXY_AST_MSG to Node1, asking Node 1 to downconvert. receiving DLM_PROXY_AST_MSG, thread ocfs2dc send DLM_CONVERT_LOCK_MSG to Node2 to downconvert lock_1(EX->NL). lock_1 can be granted and put it into pending_asts list, return DLM_NORMAL. then something happened and Node2 crashed. received DLM_NORMAL, waiting for DLM_PROXY_AST_MSG. selected as the recovery master, receving migrate lock from Node1, queue lock_1 to the tail of converting list. After dlm recovery, converting list in the master of lockresA(Node3) will be: converting list head <-> lock_3(NL->EX) <->lock_1(EX<->NL). Requested mode of lock_3 is not compatible with the granted mode of lock_1, so it can not be granted. and lock_1 can not downconvert because covnerting queue is strictly FIFO. So a deadlock is created. We think function dlm_process_recovery_data() should queue_ast for lock_1 or alter the order of lock_1 and lock_3, so dlm_thread can process lock_1 first. And if there are multiple downconverting locks, they must convert form PR to NL, so no need to sort them. Signed-off-by: -

__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This calculates the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor based on an offset. Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when writing data or on the right side of an assignment. __get_cpu_var() is defined as : #define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var))) __get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on other platforms) to avoid the address calculation. this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu variables. This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that use the offset. Thereby address calculations are avoided and less registers are used when code is generated. At the end of the patch set all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so the macro is removed too. The patch set includes passes over all arches as well. Once these operations are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in non -x86 arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e. using a global register that may be set to the per cpu base. Transformations done to __get_cpu_var() 1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor. DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y); int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y); Converts to int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y); 2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved. DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]); int *x = __get_cpu_var(y); Converts to int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y); 3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu variable. DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y); int x = __get_cpu_var(y) Converts to int x = __this_cpu_read(y); 4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y); struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y); Converts to memcpy(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&y), sizeof(x)); 5. Assignment to a per cpu variable DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y) __get_cpu_var(y) = x; Converts to __this_cpu_write(y, x); 6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y); __get_cpu_var(y)++ Converts to __this_cpu_inc(y) Signed-off-by: -

Without this patch fanotify_init does not validate the value passed in event_f_flags. When a fanotify event is read from the fanotify file descriptor a new file descriptor is created where file.f_flags = event_f_flags. Internal and external open flags are stored together in field f_flags of struct file. Hence, an application might create file descriptors with internal flags like FMODE_EXEC, FMODE_NOCMTIME set. Jan Kara and Eric Paris both aggreed that this is a bug and the value of event_f_flags should be checked: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/29/522 https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/29/539 This updated patch version considers the comments by Michael Kerrisk in https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/4/10 With the patch the value of event_f_flags is checked. When specifying an invalid value error EINVAL is returned. Internal flags are disallowed. File creation flags are disallowed: O_CREAT, O_DIRECTORY, O_EXCL, O_NOCTTY, O_NOFOLLOW, O_TRUNC, and O_TTY_INIT. Flags which do not make sense with fanotify are disallowed: __O_TMPFILE, O_PATH, FASYNC, and O_DIRECT. This leaves us with the following allowed values: O_RDONLY, O_WRONLY, O_RDWR are basic functionality. The are stored in the bits given by O_ACCMODE. O_APPEND is working as expected. The value might be useful in a logging application which appends the current status each time the log is opened. O_LARGEFILE is needed for files exceeding 4GB on 32bit systems. O_NONBLOCK may be useful when monitoring slow devices like tapes. O_NDELAY is equal to O_NONBLOCK except for platform parisc. To avoid code breaking on parisc either both flags should be allowed or none. The patch allows both. __O_SYNC and O_DSYNC may be used to avoid data loss on power disruption. O_NOATIME may be useful to reduce disk activity. O_CLOEXEC may be useful, if separate processes shall be used to scan files. Once this patch is accepted, the fanotify_init.2 manpage has to be updated. Signed-off-by:
