With the addition of memfd hugetlbfs support, we now have the situation where memfd depends on TMPFS -or- HUGETLBFS. Previously, memfd was only supported on tmpfs, so it made sense that the code resided in shmem.c. In the current code, memfd is only functional if TMPFS is defined. If HUGETLFS is defined and TMPFS is not defined, then memfd functionality will not be available for hugetlbfs. This does not cause BUGs, just a lack of potentially desired functionality. Code is restructured in the following way: - include/linux/memfd.h is a new file containing memfd specific definitions previously contained in shmem_fs.h. - mm/memfd.c is a new file containing memfd specific code previously contained in shmem.c. - memfd specific code is removed from shmem_fs.h and shmem.c. - A new config option MEMFD_CREATE is added that is defined if TMPFS or HUGETLBFS is defined. No functional changes are made to the code: restructuring only.

In preparation for memfd code restructure, update comments, definitions and function names dealing with file sealing to indicate that tmpfs and hugetlbfs are the supported filesystems. Also, change file pointer checks in memfd_file_seals_ptr to use defined interfaces instead of directly referencing file_operation structs.

zRam as swap is useful for small memory device. However, swap means those pages on zram are mostly cold pages due to VM's LRU algorithm. Especially, once init data for application are touched for launching, they tend to be not accessed any more and finally swapped out. zRAM can store such cold pages as compressed form but it's pointless to keep in memory. Better idea is app developers free them directly rather than remaining them on heap. This patch tell us last access time of each block of zram via "cat /sys/kernel/debug/zram/zram0/block_state". The output is as follows, 300 75.033841 .wh 301 63.806904 s.. 302 63.806919 ..h First column is zram's block index and 3rh one represents symbol (s: same page w: written page to backing store h: huge page) of the block state. Second column represents usec time unit of the block was last accessed. So above example means the 300th block is accessed at 75.033851 second and it was huge so it was written to the backing store. Admin can leverage this information to catch cold|incompressible pages of process with *pagemap* once part of heaps are swapped out. I used the feature a few years ago to find memory hoggers in userspace to notify them what memory they have wasted without touch for a long time. With it, they could reduce unnecessary memory space. However, at that time, I hacked up zram for the feature but now I need the feature again so I decided it would be better to upstream rather than keeping it alone. I hope I submit the userspace tool to use the feature soon.

Mark incompressible pages so that we could investigate who is the owner of the incompressible pages once the page is swapped out via using upcoming zram memory tracker feature. With it, we could prevent such pages to be swapped out by using mlock. Otherwise we might remove them. This patch exposes new stat for huge pages via mm_stat.

Lastly, let's move the function to the top of source code to be able to use it easily without forward declaration.

Add swap max and fail events so that userland can monitor and respond to running out of swap. I'm not too sure about the fail event. Right now, it's a bit confusing which stats / events are recursive and which aren't and also which ones reflect events which originate from a given cgroup and which targets the cgroup. No idea what the right long term solution is and it could just be that growing them organically is actually the only right thing to do.

Patch series "mm, memcontrol: Implement memory.swap.events", v2. This patchset implements memory.swap.events which contains max and fail events so that userland can monitor and respond to swap running out. This patch (of 2): get_swap_page() is always followed by mem_cgroup_try_charge_swap(). This patch moves mem_cgroup_try_charge_swap() into get_swap_page() and makes get_swap_page() call the function even after swap allocation failure. This simplifies the callers and consolidates memcg related logic and will ease adding swap related memcg events.

mmap_sem is on the hot path of kernel, and it very contended, but it is abused too. It is used to protect arg_start|end and evn_start|end when reading /proc/$PID/cmdline and /proc/$PID/environ, but it doesn't make sense since those proc files just expect to read 4 values atomically and not related to VM, they could be set to arbitrary values by C/R. And, the mmap_sem contention may cause unexpected issue like below: INFO: task ps:14018 blocked for more than 120 seconds. Tainted: G E 4.9.79-009.ali3000.alios7.x86_64 #1 "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message. ps D 0 14018 1 0x00000004 Call Trace: schedule+0x36/0x80 rwsem_down_read_failed+0xf0/0x150 call_rwsem_down_read_failed+0x18/0x30 down_read+0x20/0x40 proc_pid_cmdline_read+0xd9/0x4e0 __vfs_read+0x37/0x150 vfs_read+0x96/0x130 SyS_read+0x55/0xc0 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x1a/0xc5 Both Alexey Dobriyan and Michal Hocko suggested to use dedicated lock for them to mitigate the abuse of mmap_sem. So, introduce a new spinlock in mm_struct to protect the concurrent access to arg_start|end, env_start|end and others, as well as replace write map_sem to read to protect the race condition between prctl and sys_brk which might break check_data_rlimit(), and makes prctl more friendly to other VM operations. This patch just eliminates the abuse of mmap_sem, but it can't resolve the above hung task warning completely since the later access_remote_vm() call needs acquire mmap_sem. The mmap_sem scalability issue will be solved in the future.

ocfs2_inode_lock_tracker as a variant of ocfs2_inode_lock, is used to prevent deadlock due to recursive lock acquisition. But this function does not distinguish whether the requested level is EX or PR. If a RP lock has been attained, this function will immediately return success afterwards even an EX lock is requested. But actually the return value does not mean that the process got a EX lock, because ocfs2_inode_lock has not been called. When taking lock levels into account, we face some different situations: 1. no lock is held In this case, just lock the inode and return 0 2. We are holding a lock For this situation, things diverges into several cases wanted holding what to do ex ex see 2.1 below ex pr see 2.2 below pr ex see 2.1 below pr pr see 2.1 below 2.1 lock level that is been held is compatible with the wanted level, so no lock action will be tacken. 2.2 Otherwise, an upgrade is needed, but it is forbidden.

The following illustrate how it happens. process 1 process 2 ocfs2_inode_lock_tracker(ex=0) <====== ocfs2_inode_lock_tracker(ex=1) ocfs2_inode_lock_tracker(ex=1) For the status quo of ocfs2, without this patch, neither a bug nor end-user impact will be caused because the wrong logic is avoided.

ocfs2_extend_allocation() has been deleted, clean up its declaration. Also change the static function name from __ocfs2_extend_allocation() to ocfs2_extend_allocation() to be consistent with the corresponding trace events as well as comments for ocfs2_lock_allocators().

Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler. For now, this is just documenting that the function returns a VM_FAULT value rather than an errno. Once all instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a distinct type. commit 1c8f4220 ("mm: change return type to vm_fault_t") There was an existing bug inside dax_load_hole() if vm_insert_mixed had failed to allocate a page table, we'd return VM_FAULT_NOPAGE instead of VM_FAULT_OOM. With new vmf_insert_mixed() this issue is addressed. vm_insert_mixed_mkwrite has inefficiency when it returns an error value, driver has to convert it to vm_fault_t type. With new vmf_insert_mixed_mkwrite() this limitation will be addressed.

Pull overflow updates from Kees Cook: "This adds the new overflow checking helpers and adds them to the 2-factor argument allocators. And this adds the saturating size helpers and does a treewide replacement for the struct_size() usage. Additionally this adds the overflow testing modules to make sure everything works. I'm still working on the treewide replacements for allocators with "simple" multiplied arguments: *alloc(a * b, ...) -> *alloc_array(a, b, ...) and *zalloc(a * b, ...) -> *calloc(a, b, ...) as well as the more complex cases, but that's separable from this portion of the series. I expect to have the rest sent before -rc1 closes; there are a lot of messy cases to clean up.

Pull audit updates from Paul Moore: "Another reasonable chunk of audit changes for v4.18, thirteen patches in total. The thirteen patches can mostly be broken down into one of four categories: general bug fixes, accessor functions for audit state stored in the task_struct, negative filter matches on executable names, and extending the (relatively) new seccomp logging knobs to the audit subsystem. The main driver for the accessor functions from Richard are the changes we're working on to associate audit events with containers, but I think they have some standalone value too so I figured it would be good to get them in now. The seccomp/audit patches from Tyler apply the seccomp logging improvements from a few releases ago to audit's seccomp logging; starting with this patchset the changes in /proc/sys/kernel/seccomp/actions_logged should apply to both the standard kernel logging and audit.
