      mm: add gfp flags for NODEMASK_ALLOC slab allocations · bad44b5b
      David Rientjes 提交于
      Objects passed to NODEMASK_ALLOC() are relatively small in size and are
      backed by slab caches that are not of large order, traditionally never
      greater than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER.
      
      Thus, using GFP_KERNEL for these allocations on large machines when
      CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT > 8 will cause the page allocator to loop endlessly in
      the allocation attempt, each time invoking both direct reclaim or the oom
      killer.
      
      This is of particular interest when using NODEMASK_ALLOC() from a
      mempolicy context (either directly in mm/mempolicy.c or the mempolicy
      constrained hugetlb allocations) since the oom killer always kills current
      when allocations are constrained by mempolicies.  So for all present use
      cases in the kernel, current would end up being oom killed when direct
      reclaim fails.  That would allow the NODEMASK_ALLOC() to succeed but
      current would have sacrificed itself upon returning.
      
      This patch adds gfp flags to NODEMASK_ALLOC() to pass to kmalloc() on
      CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT > 8; this parameter is a nop on other configurations.
      All current use cases either directly from hugetlb code or indirectly via
      NODEMASK_SCRATCH() union __GFP_NORETRY to avoid direct reclaim and the oom
      killer when the slab allocator needs to allocate additional pages.
      
      The side-effect of this change is that all current use cases of either
      NODEMASK_ALLOC() or NODEMASK_SCRATCH() need appropriate -ENOMEM handling
      when the allocation fails (never for CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT <= 8).  All
      current use cases were audited and do have appropriate error handling at
      this time.

      hugetlb: offload per node attribute registrations · 39da08cb
      Lee Schermerhorn 提交于
      Offload the registration and unregistration of per node hstate sysfs
      attributes to a worker thread rather than attempt the
      allocation/attachment or detachment/freeing of the attributes in the
      context of the memory hotplug handler.
      
      I don't know that this is absolutely required, but the registration can
      sleep in allocations and other mem hot plug handlers do it this way.  If
      it turns out this is NOT required, we can drop this patch.
      
      N.B.,  Only tested build, boot, libhugetlbfs regression.

      hugetlb: add per node hstate attributes · 9a305230
      Lee Schermerhorn 提交于
      Add the per huge page size control/query attributes to the per node
      sysdevs:
      
      /sys/devices/system/node/node<ID>/hugepages/hugepages-<size>/
      	nr_hugepages       - r/w
      	free_huge_pages    - r/o
      	surplus_huge_pages - r/o
      
      The patch attempts to re-use/share as much of the existing global hstate
      attribute initialization and handling, and the "nodes_allowed" constraint
      processing as possible.
      
      Calling set_max_huge_pages() with no node indicates a change to global
      hstate parameters.  In this case, any non-default task mempolicy will be
      used to generate the nodes_allowed mask.  A valid node id indicates an
      update to that node's hstate parameters, and the count argument specifies
      the target count for the specified node.  From this info, we compute the
      target global count for the hstate and construct a nodes_allowed node mask
      contain only the specified node.
      
      Setting the node specific nr_hugepages via the per node attribute
      effectively ignores any task mempolicy or cpuset constraints.

      hugetlb: derive huge pages nodes allowed from task mempolicy · 06808b08
      Lee Schermerhorn 提交于
      This patch derives a "nodes_allowed" node mask from the numa mempolicy of
      the task modifying the number of persistent huge pages to control the
      allocation, freeing and adjusting of surplus huge pages when the pool page
      count is modified via the new sysctl or sysfs attribute
      "nr_hugepages_mempolicy".  The nodes_allowed mask is derived as follows:
      
      * For "default" [NULL] task mempolicy, a NULL nodemask_t pointer
        is produced.  This will cause the hugetlb subsystem to use
        node_online_map as the "nodes_allowed".  This preserves the
        behavior before this patch.
      * For "preferred" mempolicy, including explicit local allocation,
        a nodemask with the single preferred node will be produced.
        "local" policy will NOT track any internode migrations of the
        task adjusting nr_hugepages.
      * For "bind" and "interleave" policy, the mempolicy's nodemask
        will be used.
      * Other than to inform the construction of the nodes_allowed node
        mask, the actual mempolicy mode is ignored.  That is, all modes
        behave like interleave over the resulting nodes_allowed mask
        with no "fallback".
      
      See the updated documentation [next patch] for more information
      about the implications of this patch.
      
      Examples:
      
      Starting with:
      
      	Node 0 HugePages_Total:     0
      	Node 1 HugePages_Total:     0
      	Node 2 HugePages_Total:     0
      	Node 3 HugePages_Total:     0
      
      Default behavior [with or without this patch] balances persistent
      hugepage allocation across nodes [with sufficient contiguous memory]:
      
      	sysctl vm.nr_hugepages[_mempolicy]=32
      
      yields:
      
      	Node 0 HugePages_Total:     8
      	Node 1 HugePages_Total:     8
      	Node 2 HugePages_Total:     8
      	Node 3 HugePages_Total:     8
      
      Of course, we only have nr_hugepages_mempolicy with the patch,
      but with default mempolicy, nr_hugepages_mempolicy behaves the
      same as nr_hugepages.
      
      Applying mempolicy--e.g., with numactl [using '-m' a.k.a.
      '--membind' because it allows multiple nodes to be specified
      and it's easy to type]--we can allocate huge pages on
      individual nodes or sets of nodes.  So, starting from the
      condition above, with 8 huge pages per node, add 8 more to
      node 2 using:
      
      	numactl -m 2 sysctl vm.nr_hugepages_mempolicy=40
      
      This yields:
      
      	Node 0 HugePages_Total:     8
      	Node 1 HugePages_Total:     8
      	Node 2 HugePages_Total:    16
      	Node 3 HugePages_Total:     8
      
      The incremental 8 huge pages were restricted to node 2 by the
      specified mempolicy.
      
      Similarly, we can use mempolicy to free persistent huge pages
      from specified nodes:
      
      	numactl -m 0,1 sysctl vm.nr_hugepages_mempolicy=32
      
      yields:
      
      	Node 0 HugePages_Total:     4
      	Node 1 HugePages_Total:     4
      	Node 2 HugePages_Total:    16
      	Node 3 HugePages_Total:     8
      
      The 8 huge pages freed were balanced over nodes 0 and 1.

      hugetlb: add nodemask arg to huge page alloc, free and surplus adjust functions · 6ae11b27
      Lee Schermerhorn 提交于
      In preparation for constraining huge page allocation and freeing by the
      controlling task's numa mempolicy, add a "nodes_allowed" nodemask pointer
      to the allocate, free and surplus adjustment functions.  For now, pass
      NULL to indicate default behavior--i.e., use node_online_map.  A
      subsqeuent patch will derive a non-default mask from the controlling
      task's numa mempolicy.
      
      Note that this method of updating the global hstate nr_hugepages under the
      constraint of a nodemask simplifies keeping the global state
      consistent--especially the number of persistent and surplus pages relative
      to reservations and overcommit limits.  There are undoubtedly other ways
      to do this, but this works for both interfaces: mempolicy and per node
      attributes.

      Lee Schermerhorn 提交于
      Modify the hstate_next_node* functions to allow them to be called to
      obtain the "start_nid".  Then, whereas prior to this patch we
      unconditionally called hstate_next_node_to_{alloc|free}(), whether or not
      we successfully allocated/freed a huge page on the node, now we only call
      these functions on failure to alloc/free to advance to next allowed node.
      
      Factor out the next_node_allowed() function to handle wrap at end of
      node_online_map.  In this version, the allowed nodes include all of the
      online nodes.

      nodemask: make NODEMASK_ALLOC more general · 4e7b8a6c
      David Rientjes 提交于
      This is a series of patches to provide control over the location of the
      allocation and freeing of persistent huge pages on a NUMA platform.
      Please consider for merging into mmotm.
      
      This series uses two mechanisms to constrain the nodes from which
      persistent huge pages are allocated: 1) the task NUMA mempolicy of the
      task modifying a new sysctl "nr_hugepages_mempolicy", based on a
      suggestion by Mel Gorman; and 2) a subset of the hugepages hstate sysfs
      attributes have been added [in V4] to each node system device under:
      
      	/sys/devices/node/node[0-9]*/hugepages
      
      The per node attibutes allow direct assignment of a huge page count on a
      specific node, regardless of the task's mempolicy or cpuset constraints.
      
      This patch:
      
      NODEMASK_ALLOC(x, m) assumes x is a type of struct, which is unnecessary.
      It's perfectly reasonable to use this macro to allocate a nodemask_t,
      which is anonymous, either dynamically or on the stack depending on
      NODES_SHIFT.

      The fact is, glibc call munmap() when thread exitng time for freeing
      stack, and it assume munlock() never fail.  However, munmap() often make
      vma splitting and it with many mapcount make -ENOMEM.
      
      Oh well, that's crazy, because stack unmapping never increase mapcount.
      The maxcount exceeding is only temporary.  internal temporary exceeding
      shouldn't make ENOMEM.
      
      This patch does it.

      page-types: exit early when invoked with -d|--describe · bb86a733
      Alex Chiang 提交于
      On a system with large amount of memory (256GB), invoking page-types can
      take quite a long time, which is unreasonable considering the user only
      wants a description of the flags:
      
      	# time ./page-types -d 0x10
      	0x0000000000000010	____D_____________________________	dirty

      This is because we still walk the entire address range.
      
      Exiting early seems like a reasonble solution:

      It would be nice to decode those page flags without staring at the source.

      state information is currently only shown when the oom killer has selected
      a task to kill.
      
      This information is omitted, however, when the oom killer panics either
      because of panic_on_oom sysctl settings or when no killable task was
      found.  It is still relevant to know crucial pieces of information such as
      the allocation order and VM state when diagnosing such issues, especially
      at boot.
      
      This patch displays the oom killer header whenever it panics so that bug
      reports can include pertinent information to debug the issue, if possible.

      hfs: fix a potential buffer overflow · ec81aecb
      Amerigo Wang 提交于
      A specially-crafted Hierarchical File System (HFS) filesystem could cause
      a buffer overflow to occur in a process's kernel stack during a memcpy()
      call within the hfs_bnode_read() function (at fs/hfs/bnode.c:24).  The
      attacker can provide the source buffer and length, and the destination
      buffer is a local variable of a fixed length.  This local variable (passed
      as "&entry" from fs/hfs/dir.c:112 and allocated on line 60) is stored in
      the stack frame of hfs_bnode_read()'s caller, which is hfs_readdir().
      Because the hfs_readdir() function executes upon any attempt to read a
      directory on the filesystem, it gets called whenever a user attempts to
      inspect any filesystem contents.

      bsdacct: fix uid/gid misreporting · 4b731d50
      Alexey Dobriyan 提交于
      commit d8e180dc "bsdacct: switch
      credentials for writing to the accounting file" introduced credential
      switching during final acct data collecting.  However, uid/gid pair
      continued to be collected from current which became credentials of who
      created acct file, not who exits.
