Base PTEs are marked young when the NUMA hinting information is cleared but the same does not happen for huge pages which this patch addresses. Note that migrated pages are not marked young as the base page migration code does not assume that migrated pages have been referenced. This could be addressed but beyond the scope of this series which is aimed at Dave Chinners shrink workload that is unlikely to be affected by this issue. Signed-off-by:

Dave Chinner reported the following on https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/1/226 Across the board the 4.0-rc1 numbers are much slower, and the degradation is far worse when using the large memory footprint configs. Perf points straight at the cause - this is from 4.0-rc1 on the "-o bhash=101073" config: - 56.07% 56.07% [kernel] [k] default_send_IPI_mask_sequence_phys - default_send_IPI_mask_sequence_phys - 99.99% physflat_send_IPI_mask - 99.37% native_send_call_func_ipi smp_call_function_many - native_flush_tlb_others - 99.85% flush_tlb_page ptep_clear_flush try_to_unmap_one rmap_walk try_to_unmap migrate_pages migrate_misplaced_page - handle_mm_fault - 99.73% __do_page_fault trace_do_page_fault do_async_page_fault + async_page_fault 0.63% native_send_call_func_single_ipi generic_exec_single smp_call_function_single This is showing excessive migration activity even though excessive migrations are meant to get throttled. Normally, the scan rate is tuned on a per-task basis depending on the locality of faults. However, if migrations fail for any reason then the PTE scanner may scan faster if the faults continue to be remote. This means there is higher system CPU overhead and fault trapping at exactly the time we know that migrations cannot happen. This patch tracks when migration failures occur and slows the PTE scanner.

Protecting a PTE to trap a NUMA hinting fault clears the writable bit and further faults are needed after trapping a NUMA hinting fault to set the writable bit again. This patch preserves the writable bit when trapping NUMA hinting faults. The impact is obvious from the number of minor faults trapped during the basis balancing benchmark and the system CPU usage; autonumabench 4.0.0-rc4 4.0.0-rc4 baseline preserve Time System-NUMA01 107.13 ( 0.00%) 103.13 ( 3.73%) Time System-NUMA01_THEADLOCAL 131.87 ( 0.00%) 83.30 ( 36.83%) Time System-NUMA02 8.95 ( 0.00%) 10.72 (-19.78%) Time System-NUMA02_SMT 4.57 ( 0.00%) 3.99 ( 12.69%) Time Elapsed-NUMA01 515.78 ( 0.00%) 517.26 ( -0.29%) Time Elapsed-NUMA01_THEADLOCAL 384.10 ( 0.00%) 384.31 ( -0.05%) Time Elapsed-NUMA02 48.86 ( 0.00%) 48.78 ( 0.16%) Time Elapsed-NUMA02_SMT 47.98 ( 0.00%) 48.12 ( -0.29%) 4.0.0-rc4 4.0.0-rc4 baseline preserve User 44383.95 43971.89 System 252.61 201.24 Elapsed 998.68 1000.94 Minor Faults 2597249 1981230 Major Faults 365 364 There is a similar drop in system CPU usage using Dave Chinner's xfsrepair workload 4.0.0-rc4 4.0.0-rc4 baseline preserve Amean real-xfsrepair 454.14 ( 0.00%) 442.36 ( 2.60%) Amean syst-xfsrepair 277.20 ( 0.00%) 204.68 ( 26.16%) The patch looks hacky but the alternatives looked worse. The tidest was to rewalk the page tables after a hinting fault but it was more complex than this approach and the performance was worse. It's not generally safe to just mark the page writable during the fault if it's a write fault as it may have been read-only for COW so that approach was discarded. Signed-off-by: -

These are three follow-on patches based on the xfsrepair workload Dave Chinner reported was problematic in 4.0-rc1 due to changes in page table management -- https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/1/226. Much of the problem was reduced by commit 53da3bc2 ("mm: fix up numa read-only thread grouping logic") and commit ba68bc01 ("mm: thp: Return the correct value for change_huge_pmd"). It was known that the performance in 3.19 was still better even if is far less safe. This series aims to restore the performance without compromising on safety. For the test of this mail, I'm comparing 3.19 against 4.0-rc4 and the three patches applied on top autonumabench 3.19.0 4.0.0-rc4 4.0.0-rc4 4.0.0-rc4 4.0.0-rc4 vanilla vanilla vmwrite-v5r8 preserve-v5r8 slowscan-v5r8 Time System-NUMA01 124.00 ( 0.00%) 161.86 (-30.53%) 107.13 ( 13.60%) 103.13 ( 16.83%) 145.01 (-16.94%) Time System-NUMA01_THEADLOCAL 115.54 ( 0.00%) 107.64 ( 6.84%) 131.87 (-14.13%) 83.30 ( 27.90%) 92.35 ( 20.07%) Time System-NUMA02 9.35 ( 0.00%) 10.44 (-11.66%) 8.95 ( 4.28%) 10.72 (-14.65%) 8.16 ( 12.73%) Time System-NUMA02_SMT 3.87 ( 0.00%) 4.63 (-19.64%) 4.57 (-18.09%) 3.99 ( -3.10%) 3.36 ( 13.18%) Time Elapsed-NUMA01 570.06 ( 0.00%) 567.82 ( 0.39%) 515.78 ( 9.52%) 517.26 ( 9.26%) 543.80 ( 4.61%) Time Elapsed-NUMA01_THEADLOCAL 393.69 ( 0.00%) 384.83 ( 2.25%) 384.10 ( 2.44%) 384.31 ( 2.38%) 380.73 ( 3.29%) Time Elapsed-NUMA02 49.09 ( 0.00%) 49.33 ( -0.49%) 48.86 ( 0.47%) 48.78 ( 0.63%) 50.94 ( -3.77%) Time Elapsed-NUMA02_SMT 47.51 ( 0.00%) 47.15 ( 0.76%) 47.98 ( -0.99%) 48.12 ( -1.28%) 49.56 ( -4.31%) 3.19.0 4.0.0-rc4 4.0.0-rc4 4.0.0-rc4 4.0.0-rc4 vanilla vanillavmwrite-v5r8preserve-v5r8slowscan-v5r8 User 46334.60 46391.94 44383.95 43971.89 44372.12 System 252.84 284.66 252.61 201.24 249.00 Elapsed 1062.14 1050.96 998.68 1000.94 1026.78 Overall the system CPU usage is comparable and the test is naturally a bit variable.

Note that on my machine the overhead was 45% higher on 4.0-rc4 which may be part of what Dave is seeing. Once we preserve the write bit across faults, it's only 2.51% higher on average. With the full series applied, system CPU usage is 24.6% lower on average. Again, the impact of preserving the write bit on minor faults is obvious and the impact of slowing scanning after migration failures is obvious on the PTE updates. Note also that the number of pages migrated is much reduced even though the headline performance is comparable. 3.19.0 4.0.0-rc4 4.0.0-rc4 4.0.0-rc4 4.0.0-rc4 vanilla vanillavmwrite-v5r8preserve-v5r8slowscan-v5r8 Minor Faults 153466827 254507978 249163829 153501373 105737890 Major Faults 610 702 690 649 724 NUMA base PTE updates 217735049 210756527 217729596 216937111 144344993 NUMA huge PMD updates 129294 85044 106921 127246 79887 NUMA pages migrated 21938995 29705270 28594162 22687324 16258075 3.19.0 4.0.0-rc4 4.0.0-rc4 4.0.0-rc4 4.0.0-rc4 vanilla vanillavmwrite-v5r8preserve-v5r8slowscan-v5r8 Mean sdb-avgqusz 13.47 2.54 2.55 2.47 2.49 Mean sdb-avgrqsz 202.32 140.22 139.50 139.02 138.12 Mean sdb-await 25.92 5.09 5.33 5.02 5.22 Mean sdb-r_await 4.71 0.19 0.83 0.51 0.11 Mean sdb-w_await 104.13 5.21 5.38 5.05 5.32 Mean sdb-svctm 0.59 0.13 0.14 0.13 0.14 Mean sdb-rrqm 0.16 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 Mean sdb-wrqm 3.59 1799.43 1826.84 1812.21 1785.67 Max sdb-avgqusz 111.06 12.13 14.05 11.66 15.60 Max sdb-avgrqsz 255.60 190.34 190.01 187.33 191.78 Max sdb-await 168.24 39.28 49.22 44.64 65.62 Max sdb-r_await 660.00 52.00 280.00 76.00 12.00 Max sdb-w_await 7804.00 39.28 49.22 44.64 65.62 Max sdb-svctm 4.00 2.82 2.86 1.98 2.84 Max sdb-rrqm 8.30 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 Max sdb-wrqm 34.20 5372.80 5278.60 5386.60 5546.15 FWIW, I also checked SPECjbb in different configurations but it's similar observations -- minor faults lower, PTE update activity lower and performance is roughly comparable against 3.19. This patch (of 3): Threads that share writable data within pages are grouped together as related tasks. This decision is based on whether the PTE is marked dirty which is subject to timing races between the PTE scanner update and when the application writes the page. If the page is file-backed, then background flushes and sync also affect placement. This is unpredictable behaviour which is impossible to reason about so this patch makes grouping decisions based on the VMA flags. Signed-off-by:

Fix B-tree corruption when a new record is inserted at position 0 in the node in hfs_brec_insert(). In this case a hfs_brec_update_parent() is called to update the parent index node (if exists) and it is passed hfs_find_data with a search_key containing a newly inserted key instead of the key to be updated. This results in an inconsistent index node. The bug reproduces on my machine after an extents overflow record for the catalog file (CNID=4) is inserted into the extents overflow B-tree. Because of a low (reserved) value of CNID=4, it has to become the first record in the first leaf node. The resulting first leaf node is correct: ---------------------------------------------------- | key0.CNID=4 | key1.CNID=123 | key2.CNID=456, ... | ---------------------------------------------------- But the parent index key0 still contains the previous key CNID=123: ----------------------- | key0.CNID=123 | ... | ----------------------- A change in hfs_brec_insert() makes hfs_brec_update_parent() work correctly by preventing it from getting fd->record=-1 value from __hfs_brec_find(). Along the way, I removed duplicate code with unification of the if condition. The resulting code is equivalent to the original code because node is never 0. Also hfs_brec_update_parent() will now return an error after getting a negative fd->record value. However, the return value of hfs_brec_update_parent() is not checked anywhere in the file and I'm leaving it unchanged by this patch. brec.c lacks error checking after some other calls too, but this issue is of less importance than the one being fixed by this patch.

Commit 3c605096 ("mm/page_alloc: restrict max order of merging on isolated pageblock") changed the logic of unset_migratetype_isolate to check the buddy allocator and explicitly call __free_pages to merge. The page that is being freed in this path never had prep_new_page called so set_page_refcounted is called explicitly but there is no call to kernel_map_pages. With the default kernel_map_pages this is mostly harmless but if kernel_map_pages does any manipulation of the page tables (unmapping or setting pages to read only) this may trigger a fault: alloc_contig_range test_pages_isolated(ceb00, ced00) failed Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffffffc0cec00000 pgd = ffffffc045fc4000 [ffffffc0cec00000] *pgd=0000000000000000 Internal error: Oops: 9600004f [#1] PREEMPT SMP Modules linked in: exfatfs CPU: 1 PID: 23237 Comm: TimedEventQueue Not tainted 3.10.49-gc72ad36-dirty #1 task: ffffffc03de52100 ti: ffffffc015388000 task.ti: ffffffc015388000 PC is at memset+0xc8/0x1c0 LR is at kernel_map_pages+0x1ec/0x244 Fix this by calling kernel_map_pages to ensure the page is set in the page table properly Fixes: 3c605096 ("mm/page_alloc: restrict max order of merging on isolated pageblock") Signed-off-by:

Commit 9aabf810 ("mm/slub: optimize alloc/free fastpath by removing preemption on/off") introduced an occasional hang for kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT && !CONFIG_SMP. The problem is the following loop the patch introduced to slab_alloc_node and slab_free: do { tid = this_cpu_read(s->cpu_slab->tid); c = raw_cpu_ptr(s->cpu_slab); } while (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PREEMPT) && unlikely(tid != c->tid)); GCC 4.9 has been observed to hoist the load of c and c->tid above the loop for !SMP kernels (as in this case raw_cpu_ptr(x) is compile-time constant and does not force a reload). On arm64 the generated assembly looks like: ldr x4, [x0,#8] loop: ldr x1, [x0,#8] cmp x1, x4 b.ne loop If the thread is preempted between the load of c->tid (into x1) and tid (into x4), and an allocation or free occurs in another thread (bumping the cpu_slab's tid), the thread will be stuck in the loop until s->cpu_slab->tid wraps, which may be forever in the absence of allocations/frees on the same CPU. This patch changes the loop condition to access c->tid with READ_ONCE. This ensures that the value is reloaded even when the compiler would otherwise assume it could cache the value, and also ensures that the load will not be torn. Signed-off-by:

walk_page_test() is purely pagewalk's internal stuff, and its positive return values are not intended to be passed to the callers of pagewalk. However, in the current code if the last vma in the do-while loop in walk_page_range() happens to return a positive value, it leaks outside walk_page_range(). So the user visible effect is invalid/unexpected return value (according to the reporter, mbind() causes it.) This patch fixes it simply by reinitializing the return value after checked. Another exposed interface, walk_page_vma(), already returns 0 for such cases so no problem. Fixes: fafaa426 ("pagewalk: improve vma handling") Signed-off-by:

I have constantly stumbled upon "kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:399!" after upgrading to 3.19 and had no luck with 4.0-rc1 neither. So, after looking into new logic introduced by commit 7a3ef208 ("mm: prevent endless growth of anon_vma hierarchy"), I found chances are that unlink_anon_vmas() is called without incrementing dst->anon_vma->degree in anon_vma_clone() due to allocation failure. If dst->anon_vma is not NULL in error path, its degree will be incorrectly decremented in unlink_anon_vmas() and eventually underflow when exiting as a result of another call to unlink_anon_vmas(). That's how "kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:399!" is triggered for me. This patch fixes the underflow by dropping dst->anon_vma when allocation fails. It's safe to do so regardless of original value of dst->anon_vma because dst->anon_vma doesn't have valid meaning if anon_vma_clone() fails. Besides, callers don't care dst->anon_vma in such case neither. Also suggested by Michal Hocko, we can clean up vma_adjust() a bit as anon_vma_clone() now does the work.

this_cpu operations were implemented for arm64 in: 5284e1b4 arm64: xchg: Implement cmpxchg_double f97fc810 arm64: percpu: Implement this_cpu operations Unfortunately, it is possible for pre-emption to take place between address generation and data access. This can lead to cases where data is being manipulated by this_cpu for a different CPU than it was called on. Which effectively breaks the spec. This patch disables pre-emption for the this_cpu operations guaranteeing that address generation and data manipulation take place without a pre-emption in-between.

Firstly, handle zero length calls properly. Believe it or not there are a few of these happening during early boot. Next, we can't just drop to a memcpy() call in the forward copy case where dst <= src. The reason is that the cache initializing stores used in the Niagara memcpy() implementations can end up clearing out cache lines before we've sourced their original contents completely. For example, considering NG4memcpy, the main unrolled loop begins like this: load src + 0x00 load src + 0x08 load src + 0x10 load src + 0x18 load src + 0x20 store dst + 0x00 Assume dst is 64 byte aligned and let's say that dst is src - 8 for this memcpy() call. That store at the end there is the one to the first line in the cache line, thus clearing the whole line, which thus clobbers "src + 0x28" before it even gets loaded. To avoid this, just fall through to a simple copy only mildly optimized for the case where src and dst are 8 byte aligned and the length is a multiple of 8 as well. We could get fancy and call GENmemcpy() but this is good enough for how this thing is actually used. Reported-by:David Ahern <david.ahern@oracle.com> Reported-by:

From 1ebf33901ecc75d9496862dceb1ef0377980587c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Date: Mon, 23 Mar 2015 00:08:19 -0400 2f800fbd ("writeback: fix dirtied pages accounting on redirty") introduced account_page_redirty() which reverts stat updates for a redirtied page, making BDI_DIRTIED no longer monotonically increasing. bdi_update_write_bandwidth() uses the delta in BDI_DIRTIED as the basis for bandwidth calculation. While unlikely, since the above patch, the newer value may be lower than the recorded past value and underflow the bandwidth calculation leading to a wild result. Fix it by subtracing min of the old and new values when calculating delta. AFAIK, there hasn't been any report of it happening but the resulting erratic behavior would be non-critical and temporary, so it's possible that the issue is happening without being reported. The risk of the fix is very low, so tagged for -stable. Signed-off-by:

When user selects CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV=m to build HV/PR bits as a separate module the relevant MCE code gets excluded. This patch fixes the MCE code to use CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HANDLER.
