Commit 7a5da02d ("locking/lockdep: check for freed initmem in static_obj()") added arch_is_kernel_initmem_freed() which is supposed to report whether an object is part of already freed init memory. For the time being, the generic version of arch_is_kernel_initmem_freed() always reports 'false', allthough free_initmem() is generically called on all architectures. Therefore, change the generic version of arch_is_kernel_initmem_freed() to check whether free_initmem() has been called. If so, then check if a given address falls into init memory. To ease the use of system_state, move it out of line into its only caller which is lockdep.c Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1d40783e676e07858be97d881f449ee7ea8adfb1.1633001016.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.euSigned-off-by:

core_kernel_text() considers that until system_state in at least SYSTEM_RUNNING, init memory is valid. But init memory is freed a few lines before setting SYSTEM_RUNNING, so we have a small period of time when core_kernel_text() is wrong. Create an intermediate system state called SYSTEM_FREEING_INIT that is set before starting freeing init memory, and use it in core_kernel_text() to report init memory invalid earlier.

There was a report that starting an Ubuntu in docker while using cpuset to bind it to movable nodes (a node only has movable zone, like a node for hotplug or a Persistent Memory node in normal usage) will fail due to memory allocation failure, and then OOM is involved and many other innocent processes got killed. It can be reproduced with command: $ docker run -it --rm --cpuset-mems 4 ubuntu:latest bash -c "grep Mems_allowed /proc/self/status" (where node 4 is a movable node) runc:[2:INIT] invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x500cc2(GFP_HIGHUSER|__GFP_ACCOUNT), order=0, oom_score_adj=0 CPU: 8 PID: 8291 Comm: runc:[2:INIT] Tainted: G W I E 5.8.2-0.g71b519a-default #1 openSUSE Tumbleweed (unreleased) Hardware name: Dell Inc.

The OOM killer cannot help to resolve the situation as there is no usable memory for the request in the cpuset scope. The only reasonable measure to take is to fail the allocation right away and have the caller to deal with it. So add a check for cases like this in the slowpath of allocation, and bail out early returning NULL for the allocation. As page allocation is one of the hottest path in kernel, this check will hurt all users with sane cpuset configuration, add a static branch check and detect the abnormal config in cpuset memory binding setup so that the extra check cost in page allocation is not paid by everyone. [thanks to Micho Hocko and David Rientjes for suggesting not handling it inside OOM code, adding cpuset check, refining comments] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1632481657-68112-1-git-send-email-feng.tang@intel.comSigned-off-by:Feng Tang <feng.tang@intel.com> Suggested-by:

Patch series "Fix NUMA without SMP". SuperH is the only architecture which still supports NUMA without SMP, for good reasons (various memories scattered around the address space, each with varying latencies). This series fixes two build errors due to variables and functions used by the NUMA code being provided by SMP-only source files or sections. This patch (of 2): If CONFIG_NUMA=y, but CONFIG_SMP=n (e.g. sh/migor_defconfig): sh4-linux-gnu-ld: mm/page_alloc.o: in function `get_page_from_freelist': page_alloc.c:(.text+0x2c24): undefined reference to `node_reclaim_distance' Fix this by moving the declaration of node_reclaim_distance from an SMP-only to a generic file.

In build_zonelists(), when the fallback list is built for the nodes, the node load gets reinitialized during each iteration. This results in nodes with same distances occupying the same slot in different node fallback lists rather than appearing in the intended round- robin manner. This results in one node getting picked for allocation more compared to other nodes with the same distance. As an example, consider a 4 node system with the following distance matrix. Node 0 1 2 3 ---------------- 0 10 12 32 32 1 12 10 32 32 2 32 32 10 12 3 32 32 12 10 For this case, the node fallback list gets built like this: Node Fallback list --------------------- 0 0 1 2 3 1 1 0 3 2 2 2 3 0 1 3 3 2 0 1 <-- Unexpected fallback order In the fallback list for nodes 2 and 3, the nodes 0 and 1 appear in the same order which results in more allocations getting satisfied from node 0 compared to node 1. The effect of this on remote memory bandwidth as seen by stream benchmark is shown below: Case 1: Bandwidth from cores on nodes 2 & 3 to memory on nodes 0 & 1 (numactl -m 0,1 ./stream_lowOverhead ... --cores <from 2, 3>) Case 2: Bandwidth from cores on nodes 0 & 1 to memory on nodes 2 & 3 (numactl -m 2,3 ./stream_lowOverhead ... --cores <from 0, 1>) ---------------------------------------- BANDWIDTH (MB/s) TEST Case 1 Case 2 ---------------------------------------- COPY 57479.6 110791.8 SCALE 55372.9 105685.9 ADD 50460.6 96734.2 TRIADD 50397.6 97119.1 ---------------------------------------- The bandwidth drop in Case 1 occurs because most of the allocations get satisfied by node 0 as it appears first in the fallback order for both nodes 2 and 3. This can be fixed by accumulating the node load in build_zonelists() rather than reinitializing it during each iteration. With this the nodes with the same distance rightly get assigned in the round robin manner. In fact this was how it was originally until commit f0c0b2b8 ("change zonelist order: zonelist order selection logic") dropped the load accumulation and resorted to initializing the load during each iteration. While zonelist ordering was removed by commit c9bff3ee ("mm, page_alloc: rip out ZONELIST_ORDER_ZONE"), the change to the node load accumulation in build_zonelists() remained. So essentially this patch reverts back to the accumulated node load logic. After this fix, the fallback order gets built like this: Node Fallback list ------------------ 0 0 1 2 3 1 1 0 3 2 2 2 3 0 1 3 3 2 1 0 <-- Note the change here The bandwidth in Case 1 improves and matches Case 2 as shown below. ---------------------------------------- BANDWIDTH (MB/s) TEST Case 1 Case 2 ---------------------------------------- COPY 110438.9 110107.2 SCALE 105930.5 105817.5 ADD 97005.1 96159.8 TRIADD 97441.5 96757.1 ---------------------------------------- The correctness of the fallback list generation has been verified for the above node configuration where the node 3 starts as memory-less node and comes up online only during memory hotplug.

Patch series "Fix NUMA nodes fallback list ordering". For a NUMA system that has multiple nodes at same distance from other nodes, the fallback list generation prefers same node order for them instead of round-robin thereby penalizing one node over others. This series fixes it. More description of the problem and the fix is present in the patch description. This patch (of 2): Print information message about the allocation fallback order for each NUMA node during boot. No functional changes here. This makes it easier to illustrate the problem in the node fallback list generation, which the next patch fixes.

Commit ffb29b1c ("mm/vmalloc: fix numa spreading for large hash tables") can cause significant performance regressions in some situations as Andrew mentioned in [1]. The main situation is vmalloc, vmalloc will allocate pages with NUMA_NO_NODE by default, that will result in alloc page one by one; In order to solve this, __alloc_pages_bulk and mempolicy should be considered at the same time. 1) If node is specified in memory allocation request, it will alloc all pages by __alloc_pages_bulk. 2) If interleaving allocate memory, it will cauculate how many pages should be allocated in each node, and use __alloc_pages_bulk to alloc pages in each node.

Huge vmalloc allocation on heavy loaded node can lead to a global memory shortage. Task called vmalloc can have worst badness and be selected by OOM-killer, however taken fatal signal does not interrupt allocation cycle. Vmalloc repeat page allocaions again and again, exacerbating the crisis and consuming the memory freed up by another killed tasks. After a successful completion of the allocation procedure, a fatal signal will be processed and task will be destroyed finally. However it may not release the consumed memory, since the allocated object may have a lifetime unrelated to the completed task. In the worst case, this can lead to the host will panic due to "Out of memory and no killable processes..." This patch allows OOM-killer to break vmalloc cycle, makes OOM more effective and avoid host panic. It does not check oom condition directly, however, and breaks page allocation cycle when fatal signal was received. This may trigger some hidden problems, when caller does not handle vmalloc failures, or when rollaback after failed vmalloc calls own vmallocs inside. However all of these scenarios are incorrect: vmalloc does not guarantee successful allocation, it has never been called with __GFP_NOFAIL and threfore either should not be used for any rollbacks or should handle such errors correctly and not lead to critical failures.

Before we did not guarantee a free block with lowest start address for allocations with alignment >= PAGE_SIZE. Because an alignment overhead was included into a search length like below: length = size + align - 1; doing so we make sure that a bigger block would fit after applying an alignment adjustment. Now there is no such limitation, i.e. any alignment that user wants to apply will result to a lowest address of returned free area.

We used to include an alignment overhead into a search length, in that case we guarantee that a found area will definitely fit after applying a specific alignment that user specifies. From the other hand we do not guarantee that an area has the lowest address if an alignment is >= PAGE_SIZE. It means that, when a user specifies a special alignment together with a range that corresponds to an exact requested size then an allocation will fail. This is what happens to KASAN, it wants the free block that exactly matches a specified range during onlining memory banks: [root@vm-0 fedora]# echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory82/state [root@vm-0 fedora]# echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory83/state [root@vm-0 fedora]# echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory85/state [root@vm-0 fedora]# echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory84/state vmap allocation for size 16777216 failed: use vmalloc=<size> to increase size bash: vmalloc: allocation failure: 16777216 bytes, mode:0x6000c0(GFP_KERNEL), nodemask=(null),cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0 CPU: 4 PID: 1644 Comm: bash Kdump: loaded Not tainted 4.18.0-339.el8.x86_64+debug #1 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS rel-1.14.0-0-g155821a1990b-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x8e/0xd0 warn_alloc.cold.90+0x8a/0x1b2 ? zone_watermark_ok_safe+0x300/0x300 ? slab_free_freelist_hook+0x85/0x1a0 ? __get_vm_area_node+0x240/0x2c0 ? kfree+0xdd/0x570 ? kmem_cache_alloc_node_trace+0x157/0x230 ? notifier_call_chain+0x90/0x160 __vmalloc_node_range+0x465/0x840 ? mark_held_locks+0xb7/0x120 Fix it by making sure that find_vmap_lowest_match() returns lowest start address with any given alignment value, i.e. for alignments bigger then PAGE_SIZE the algorithm rolls back toward parent nodes checking right sub-trees if the most left free block did not fit due to alignment overhead.

The vmalloc guard pages are added on top of each allocation, thereby isolating any two allocations from one another. The top guard of the lower allocation is the bottom guard guard of the higher allocation etc. Therefore VM_NO_GUARD is dangerous; it breaks the basic premise of isolating separate allocations. There are only two in-tree users of this flag, neither of which use it through the exported interface. Ensure it stays this way.

The fallback was introduced in commit 80c33624 ("io-mapping: Fixup for different names of writecombine") to fix the build on microblaze. 5 years later, it seems all archs now provide a pgprot_writecombine(), so just remove the other possible fallbacks. For microblaze, pgprot_writecombine() is available since commit 97ccedd7 ("microblaze: Provide pgprot_device/writecombine macros for nommu"). This is build-tested on microblaze with a hack to always build mm/io-mapping.o and without DIYing on an x86-only macro (_PAGE_CACHE_MASK) Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20211020204838.1142908-1-lucas.demarchi@intel.comSigned-off-by:

All this vm_unacct_memory(charged) dance seems to complicate the life without a good reason. Furthermore, it seems not always done right on error-pathes in mremap_to(). And worse than that: this `charged' difference is sometimes double-accounted for growing MREMAP_DONTUNMAP mremap()s in move_vma(): if (security_vm_enough_memory_mm(mm, new_len >> PAGE_SHIFT)) Let's not do this. Account memory in mremap() fast-path for growing VMAs or in move_vma() for actually moving things. The same simpler way as it's done by vm_stat_account(), but with a difference to call security_vm_enough_memory_mm() before copying/adjusting VMA.

This patch follows the discussions on previous documentation patch threads [1][2]. It presents the exception case of shared memory management from the pagemap's point of view. It briefly describes what is missing, why it is missing and alternatives to the pagemap for page info retrieval in user space. In short, the kernel does not keep track of PTEs for swapped out shared pages within the processes that references them. Thus, the proc/pid/pagemap tool cannot print the swap destination of the shared memory pages, instead setting the pagemap entry to zero for both non-allocated and swapped out pages. This can create confusion for users who need information on swapped out pages. The reasons why maintaining the PTEs of all swapped out shared pages among all processes while maintaining similar performance is not a trivial task, or a desirable change, have been discussed extensively [1][3][4][5]. There are also arguments for why this arguably missing information should eventually be exposed to the user in either a future pagemap patch, or by an alternative tool.

The smp_wmb() which is in the __pte_alloc() is used to ensure all ptes setup is visible before the pte is made visible to other CPUs by being put into page tables. We only need this when the pte is actually populated, so move it to pmd_install(). __pte_alloc_kernel(), __p4d_alloc(), __pud_alloc() and __pmd_alloc() are similar to this case. We can also defer smp_wmb() to the place where the pmd entry is really populated by preallocated pte. There are two kinds of user of preallocated pte, one is filemap & finish_fault(), another is THP. The former does not need another smp_wmb() because the smp_wmb() has been done by pmd_install(). Fortunately, the latter also does not need another smp_wmb() because there is already a smp_wmb() before populating the new pte when the THP uses a preallocated pte to split a huge pmd.

Use the helper for the checks. Rename "check_mapping" into "zap_mapping" because "check_mapping" looks like a bool but in fact it stores the mapping itself. When it's set, we check the mapping (it must be non-NULL). When it's cleared we skip the check, which works like the old way. Move the duplicated comments to the helper too.

pte_unmap_same() will always unmap the pte pointer. After the unmap, vmf->pte will not be valid any more, we should clear it. It was safe only because no one is accessing vmf->pte after pte_unmap_same() returns, since the only caller of pte_unmap_same() (so far) is do_swap_page(), where vmf->pte will in most cases be overwritten very soon. Directly pass in vmf into pte_unmap_same() and then we can also avoid the long parameter list too, which should be a nice cleanup.
