The original dax patchset split the ext2/4_file_operations because of the
two NULL splice_read/splice_write in the dax case.

In the vfs if splice_read/splice_write are NULL we then call
default_splice_read/write.

What we do here is make generic_file_splice_read aware of IS_DAX() so the
original ext2/4_file_operations can be used as is.

For write it appears that iter_file_splice_write is just fine.  It uses
the regular f_op->write(file,..) or new_sync_write(file, ...).

Without this patch, c/mtime is not updated correctly when mmap'ed page is
first read from and then written to.

A new xfstest is submitted for testing this (generic/080)

[v2]
Jan Kara has pointed out that if we add the
sb_start/end_pagefault pair in the new pfn_mkwrite we
are then fixing another bug where: A user could start
writing to the page while filesystem is frozen.

This will allow FS that uses VM_PFNMAP | VM_MIXEDMAP (no page structs) to
get notified when access is a write to a read-only PFN.

This can happen if we mmap() a file then first mmap-read from it to
page-in a read-only PFN, than we mmap-write to the same page.

We need this functionality to fix a DAX bug, where in the scenario above
we fail to set ctime/mtime though we modified the file.  An xfstest is
attached to this patchset that shows the failure and the fix.  (A DAX
patch will follow)

This functionality is extra important for us, because upon dirtying of a
pmem page we also want to RDMA the page to a remote cluster node.

We define a new pfn_mkwrite and do not reuse page_mkwrite because
  1 - The name ;-)
  2 - But mainly because it would take a very long and tedious
      audit of all page_mkwrite functions of VM_MIXEDMAP/VM_PFNMAP
      users. To make sure they do not now CRASH. For example current
      DAX code (which this is for) would crash.
      If we would want to reuse page_mkwrite, We will need to first
      patch all users, so to not-crash-on-no-page. Then enable this
      patch. But even if I did that I would not sleep so well at night.
      Adding a new vector is the safest thing to do, and is not that
      expensive. an extra pointer at a static function vector per driver.
      Also the new vector is better for performance, because else we
      Will call all current Kernel vectors, so to:
        check-ha-no-page-do-nothing and return.

No need to call it from do_shared_fault because do_wp_page is called to
change pte permissions anyway.

A lot of filesystems use generic_file_mmap() and filemap_fault(),
f_op->mmap and vm_ops->fault aren't enough to identify filesystem.

We are not safe from calling isolate_huge_page() on a hugepage
concurrently, which can make the victim hugepage in invalid state and
results in BUG_ON().

The root problem of this is that we don't have any information on struct
page (so easily accessible) about hugepages' activeness.  Note that
hugepages' activeness means just being linked to
hstate->hugepage_activelist, which is not the same as normal pages'
activeness represented by PageActive flag.

Normal pages are isolated by isolate_lru_page() which prechecks PageLRU
before isolation, so let's do similarly for hugetlb with a new
paeg_huge_active().

set/clear_page_huge_active() should be called within hugetlb_lock.  But
hugetlb_cow() and hugetlb_no_page() don't do this, being justified because
in these functions set_page_huge_active() is called right after the
hugepage is allocated and no other thread tries to isolate it.

Mempools keep elements in a reserved pool for contexts in which allocation
may not be possible.  When an element is allocated from the reserved pool,
its memory contents is the same as when it was added to the reserved pool.

Because of this, elements lack any free poisoning to detect use-after-free
errors.

This patch adds free poisoning for elements backed by the slab allocator.
This is possible because the mempool layer knows the object size of each
element.

When an element is added to the reserved pool, it is poisoned with
POISON_FREE.  When it is removed from the reserved pool, the contents are
checked for POISON_FREE.  If there is a mismatch, a warning is emitted to
the kernel log.

This is only effective for configs with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB or
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON.

Mempools based on slab caches with object constructors are risky because
element allocation can happen either from the slab cache itself, meaning
the constructor is properly called before returning, or from the mempool
reserve pool, meaning the constructor is not called before returning,
depending on the allocation context.

For this reason, we should disallow creating mempools based on slab caches
that have object constructors.  Callers of mempool_alloc() will be
responsible for properly initializing the returned element.

Then, it doesn't matter if the element came from the slab cache or the
mempool reserved pool.

The only occurrence of a mempool being based on a slab cache with an
object constructor in the tree is in fs/jfs/jfs_metapage.c.  Remove it and
properly initialize the element in alloc_metapage().

At the same time, META_free is never used, so remove it as well.

As suggested by Kirill the "goto"s in vma_to_resize aren't necessary, just
change them to explicit return.

Recently I straced bash behavior in this dd zero pipe to read test, in
part of testing under vm.overcommit_memory=2 (OVERCOMMIT_NEVER mode):

    # dd if=/dev/zero | read x

The bash sub shell is calling mremap to reallocate more and more memory
untill it finally failed -ENOMEM (I expect), or to be killed by system OOM
killer (which should not happen under OVERCOMMIT_NEVER mode); But the
mremap system call actually failed of -EFAULT, which is a surprise to me,
I think it's supposed to be -ENOMEM?  then I wrote this piece of C code
testing confirmed it: https://gist.github.com/crquan/326bde37e1ddda8effe5

    $ ./remap
    allocated one page @0x7f686bf71000, (PAGE_SIZE: 4096)
    grabbed 7680512000 bytes of memory (1875125 pages) @ 00007f6690993000.
    mremap failed Bad address (14).

The -EFAULT comes from the branch of security_vm_enough_memory_mm failure,
underlyingly it calls __vm_enough_memory which returns only 0 for success
or -ENOMEM; So why vma_to_resize needs to return -EFAULT in this case?
this sounds like a mistake to me.

Some more digging into git history:

1) Before commit 119f657c ("RLIMIT_AS checking fix") in May 1 2005
   (pre 2.6.12 days) it was returning -ENOMEM for this failure;

2) but commit 119f657c ("untangling do_mremap(), part 1") changed it
   accidentally, to what ever is preserved in local ret, which happened to
   be -EFAULT, in a previous assignment;

3) then in commit 54f5de70 code refactoring, it's explicitly returning
   -EFAULT, should be wrong.

In original implementation of vm_map_ram made by Nick Piggin there were
two bitmaps: alloc_map and dirty_map.  None of them were used as supposed
to be: finding a suitable free hole for next allocation in block.
vm_map_ram allocates space sequentially in block and on free call marks
pages as dirty, so freed space can't be reused anymore.

Actually it would be very interesting to know the real meaning of those
bitmaps, maybe implementation was incomplete, etc.

But long time ago Zhang Yanfei removed alloc_map by these two commits:

  mm/vmalloc.c: remove dead code in vb_alloc
     3fcd76e8
  mm/vmalloc.c: remove alloc_map from vmap_block
     b8e748b6

In this patch I replaced dirty_map with two range variables: dirty min and
max.  These variables store minimum and maximum position of dirty space in
a block, since we need only to know the dirty range, not exact position of
dirty pages.

Why it was made?  Several reasons: at first glance it seems that
vm_map_ram allocator concerns about fragmentation thus it uses bitmaps for
finding free hole, but it is not true.  To avoid complexity seems it is
better to use something simple, like min or max range values.  Secondly,
code also becomes simpler, without iteration over bitmap, just comparing
values in min and max macros.  Thirdly, bitmap occupies up to 1024 bits
(4MB is a max size of a block).  Here I replaced the whole bitmap with two
longs.

Finally vm_unmap_aliases should be slightly faster and the whole
vmap_block structure occupies less memory.

Previous implementation allocates new vmap block and repeats search of a
free block from the very beginning, iterating over the CPU free list.

Why it can be better??

1. Allocation can happen on one CPU, but search can be done on another CPU.
   In worst case we preallocate amount of vmap blocks which is equal to
   CPU number on the system.

2. In previous patch I added newly allocated block to the tail of free list
   to avoid soon exhaustion of virtual space and give a chance to occupy
   blocks which were allocated long time ago.  Thus to find newly allocated
   block all the search sequence should be repeated, seems it is not efficient.

In this patch newly allocated block is occupied right away, address of
virtual space is returned to the caller, so there is no any need to repeat
the search sequence, allocation job is done.

Recently I came across high fragmentation of vm_map_ram allocator:
vmap_block has free space, but still new blocks continue to appear.
Further investigation showed that certain mapping/unmapping sequences
can exhaust vmalloc space.  On small 32bit systems that's not a big
problem, cause purging will be called soon on a first allocation failure
(alloc_vmap_area), but on 64bit machines, e.g.  x86_64 has 45 bits of
vmalloc space, that can be a disaster.

1) I came up with a simple allocation sequence, which exhausts virtual
   space very quickly:

  while (iters) {

                /* Map/unmap big chunk */
                vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 16, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 16);

                /* Map/unmap small chunks.
                 *
                 * -1 for hole, which should be left at the end of each block
                 * to keep it partially used, with some free space available */
                for (i = 0; i < (VMAP_BBMAP_BITS - 16) / 8 - 1; i++) {
                        vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 8, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                        vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 8);
                }
  }

The idea behind is simple:

 1. We have to map a big chunk, e.g. 16 pages.

 2. Then we have to occupy the remaining space with smaller chunks, i.e.
    8 pages. At the end small hole should remain to keep block in free list,
    but do not let big chunk to occupy remaining space.

 3. Goto 1 - allocation request of 16 pages can't be completed (only 8 slots
    are left free in the block in the #2 step), new block will be allocated,
    all further requests will lay into newly allocated block.

To have some measurement numbers for all further tests I setup ftrace and
enabled 4 basic calls in a function profile:

        echo vm_map_ram              > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter;
        echo alloc_vmap_area        >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter;
        echo vm_unmap_ram           >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter;
        echo free_vmap_block        >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter;

So for this scenario I got these results:

BEFORE (all new blocks are put to the head of a free list)

SUMMARY:

The most interesting numbers in those tables are numbers of block
allocations and deallocations: alloc_vmap_area and free_vmap_block
calls, which show that before the change blocks were not freed, and
virtual space and physical memory (vmap_block structure allocations,
etc) were consumed.

Average time which were spent in vm_map_ram/vm_unmap_ram became slightly
better.  That can be explained with a reasonable amount of blocks in a
free list, which we need to iterate to find a suitable free block.

2) Another scenario is a random allocation:

  while (iters) {

                /* Randomly take number from a range [1..32/64] */
                nr = rand(1, VMAP_MAX_ALLOC);
                vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, nr, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, nr);
  }

I chose mersenne twister PRNG to generate persistent random state to
guarantee that both runs have the same random sequence.  For each
vm_map_ram call random number from [1..32/64] was taken to represent
amount of pages which I do map.

I did 10'000 vm_map_ram calls and got these two tables:

BEFORE (all new blocks are put to the head of a free list)

  vm_unmap_ram                         10000    5460.573 us     0.546 us        67.187 us
  alloc_vmap_area                        414    2201.650 us     5.317 us        5.591 us
  free_vmap_block                        412    574.421 us      1.394 us        15.138 us

SUMMARY:

'BEFORE' table shows, that 420 blocks were allocated and only 37 were
freed.  Remained 383 blocks are still in a free list, consuming virtual
space and physical memory.

'AFTER' table shows, that 414 blocks were allocated and 412 were really
freed.  2 blocks remained in a free list.

So fragmentation was dramatically reduced.  Why? Because when we put
newly allocated block to the head, all further requests will occupy new
block, regardless remained space in other blocks.  In this scenario all
requests come randomly.  Eventually remained free space will be less
than requested size, free list will be iterated and it is possible that
nothing will be found there - finally new block will be created.  So
exhaustion in random scenario happens for the maximum possible
allocation size: 32 pages for 32-bit system and 64 pages for 64-bit
system.

Also average cost of vm_map_ram was reduced from 1.017 us to 0.774 us.
Again this can be explained by iteration through smaller list of free
blocks.

3) Next simple scenario is a sequential allocation, when the allocation
   order is increased for each block.  This scenario forces allocator to
   reach maximum amount of partially free blocks in a free list:

  while (iters) {

                /* Populate free list with blocks with remaining space */
                for (order = 0; order <= ilog2(VMAP_MAX_ALLOC); order++) {
                        nr = VMAP_BBMAP_BITS / (1 << order);

                        /* Leave a hole */
                        nr -= 1;

                        for (i = 0; i < nr; i++) {
                                vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, (1 << order), -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                                vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, (1 << order));
                }

                /* Completely occupy blocks from a free list */
                for (order = 0; order <= ilog2(VMAP_MAX_ALLOC); order++) {
                        vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, (1 << order), -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                        vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, (1 << order));
                }
  }

Results which I got:

SUMMARY:

No surprises here, almost all numbers are the same.

Fixing this fragmentation problem I also did some improvements in a
allocation logic of a new vmap block: occupy block immediately and get
rid of extra search in a free list.

Also I replaced dirty bitmap with min/max dirty range values to make the
logic simpler and slightly faster, since two longs comparison costs
less, than loop thru bitmap.

This patchset raises several questions:

 Q: Think the problem you comments is already known so that I wrote comments
    about it as "it could consume lots of address space through fragmentation".
    Could you tell me about your situation and reason why it should be avoided?
                                                                     Gioh Kim

 A: Indeed, there was a commit 36437638 which adds explicit comment about
    fragmentation.  But fragmentation which is described in this comment caused
    by mixing of long-lived and short-lived objects, when a whole block is pinned
    in memory because some page slots are still in use.  But here I am talking
    about blocks which are free, nobody uses them, and allocator keeps them alive
    forever, continuously allocating new blocks.

 Q: I think that if you put newly allocated block to the tail of a free
    list, below example would results in enormous performance degradation.

    new block: 1MB (256 pages)

    while (iters--) {
      vm_map_ram(3 or something else not dividable for 256) * 85
      vm_unmap_ram(3) * 85
    }

    On every iteration, it needs newly allocated block and it is put to the
    tail of a free list so finding it consumes large amount of time.
                                                                    Joonsoo Kim

 A: Second patch in current patchset gets rid of extra search in a free list,
    so new block will be immediately occupied..

    Also, the scenario above is impossible, cause vm_map_ram allocates virtual
    range in orders, i.e. 2^n.  I.e. passing 3 to vm_map_ram you will allocate
    4 slots in a block and 256 slots (capacity of a block) of course dividable
    on 4, so block will be completely occupied.

    But there is a worst case which we can achieve: each free block has a hole
    equal to order size.

    The maximum size of allocation is 64 pages for 64-bit system
    (if you try to map more, original alloc_vmap_area will be called).

    So the maximum order is 6.  That means that worst case, before allocator
    makes a decision to allocate a new block, is to iterate 7 blocks:

    HEAD
    1st block - has 1  page slot  free (order 0)
    2nd block - has 2  page slots free (order 1)
    3rd block - has 4  page slots free (order 2)
    4th block - has 8  page slots free (order 3)
    5th block - has 16 page slots free (order 4)
    6th block - has 32 page slots free (order 5)
    7th block - has 64 page slots free (order 6)
    TAIL

    So the worst scenario on 64-bit system is that each CPU queue can have 7
    blocks in a free list.

    This can happen only and only if you allocate blocks increasing the order.
    (as I did in the function written in the comment of the first patch)
    This is weird and rare case, but still it is possible.  Afterwards you will
    get 7 blocks in a list.

    All further requests should be placed in a newly allocated block or some
    free slots should be found in a free list.
    Seems it does not look dramatically awful.

This patch (of 3):

If suitable block can't be found, new block is allocated and put into a
head of a free list, so on next iteration this new block will be found
first.

That's bad, because old blocks in a free list will not get a chance to be
fully used, thus fragmentation will grow.

Let's consider this simple example:

 #1 We have one block in a free list which is partially used, and where only
    one page is free:

    HEAD |xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL
                   ^
                   free space for 1 page, order 0

 #2 New allocation request of order 1 (2 pages) comes, new block is allocated
    since we do not have free space to complete this request. New block is put
    into a head of a free list:

    HEAD |----------|xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL

 #3 Two pages were occupied in a new found block:

    HEAD |xx--------|xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL
          ^
          two pages mapped here

 #4 New allocation request of order 0 (1 page) comes.  Block, which was created
    on #2 step, is located at the beginning of a free list, so it will be found
    first:

  HEAD |xxX-------|xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL
          ^                 ^
          page mapped here, but better to use this hole

It is obvious, that it is better to complete request of #4 step using the
old block, where free space is left, because in other case fragmentation
will be highly increased.

But fragmentation is not only the case.  The worst thing is that I can
easily create scenario, when the whole vmalloc space is exhausted by
blocks, which are not used, but already dirty and have several free pages.

Let's consider this function which execution should be pinned to one CPU:

static void exhaust_virtual_space(struct page *pages[16], int iters)
{
        /* Firstly we have to map a big chunk, e.g. 16 pages.
         * Then we have to occupy the remaining space with smaller
         * chunks, i.e. 8 pages. At the end small hole should remain.
         * So at the end of our allocation sequence block looks like
         * this:
         *                XX  big chunk
         * |XXxxxxxxx-|    x  small chunk
         *                 -  hole, which is enough for a small chunk,
         *                    but is not enough for a big chunk
         */
        while (iters--) {
                int i;
                void *vaddr;

                /* Map/unmap big chunk */
                vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 16, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 16);

                /* Map/unmap small chunks.
                 *
                 * -1 for hole, which should be left at the end of each block
                 * to keep it partially used, with some free space available */
                for (i = 0; i < (VMAP_BBMAP_BITS - 16) / 8 - 1; i++) {
                        vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 8, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                        vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 8);
                }
        }
}

On every iteration new block (1MB of vm area in my case) will be
allocated and then will be occupied, without attempt to resolve small
allocation request using previously allocated blocks in a free list.

In case of random allocation (size should be randomly taken from the
range [1..64] in 64-bit case or [1..32] in 32-bit case) situation is the
same: new blocks continue to appear if maximum possible allocation size
(32 or 64) passed to the allocator, because all remaining blocks in a
free list do not have enough free space to complete this allocation
request.

In summary if new blocks are put into the head of a free list eventually
virtual space will be exhausted.

In current patch I simply put newly allocated block to the tail of a
free list, thus reduce fragmentation, giving a chance to resolve
allocation request using older blocks with possible holes left.

Make 'min_size=<value>' be an option when mounting a hugetlbfs.  This
option takes the same value as the 'size' option.  min_size can be
specified without specifying size.  If both are specified, min_size must
be less that or equal to size else the mount will fail.  If min_size is
specified, then at mount time an attempt is made to reserve min_size
pages.  If the reservation fails, the mount fails.  At umount time, the
reserved pages are released.

The same routines that perform subpool maximum size accounting
hugepage_subpool_get/put_pages() are modified to also perform minimum size
accounting.  When a delta value is passed to these routines, calculate how
global reservations must be adjusted to maintain the subpool minimum size.
 The routines now return this global reserve count adjustment.  This
global reserve count adjustment is then passed to the global accounting
routine hugetlb_acct_memory().

hugetlbfs allocates huge pages from the global pool as needed.  Even if
the global pool contains a sufficient number pages for the filesystem size
at mount time, those global pages could be grabbed for some other use.  As
a result, filesystem huge page allocations may fail due to lack of pages.

Applications such as a database want to use huge pages for performance
reasons.  hugetlbfs filesystem semantics with ownership and modes work
well to manage access to a pool of huge pages.  However, the application
would like some reasonable assurance that allocations will not fail due to
a lack of huge pages.  At application startup time, the application would
like to configure itself to use a specific number of huge pages.  Before
starting, the application can check to make sure that enough huge pages
exist in the system global pools.  However, there are no guarantees that
those pages will be available when needed by the application.  What the
application wants is exclusive use of a subset of huge pages.

Add a new hugetlbfs mount option 'min_size=<value>' to indicate that the
specified number of pages will be available for use by the filesystem.  At
mount time, this number of huge pages will be reserved for exclusive use
of the filesystem.  If there is not a sufficient number of free pages, the
mount will fail.  As pages are allocated to and freeed from the
filesystem, the number of reserved pages is adjusted so that the specified
minimum is maintained.

This patch (of 4):

Add a field to the subpool structure to indicate the minimimum number of
huge pages to always be used by this subpool.  This minimum count includes
allocated pages as well as reserved pages.  If the minimum number of pages
for the subpool have not been allocated, pages are reserved up to this
minimum.  An additional field (rsv_hpages) is used to track the number of
pages reserved to meet this minimum size.  The hstate pointer in the
subpool is convenient to have when reserving and unreserving the pages.

When the compaction is activated via /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory it would
better scan the whole zone.  And some platforms, for instance ARM, have
the start_pfn of a zone at zero.  Therefore the first try to compact via
/proc doesn't work.  It needs to reset the compaction scanner position
first.

memcg currently uses hardcoded GFP_TRANSHUGE gfp flags for all THP
charges.  THP allocations, however, might be using different flags
depending on /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/{,khugepaged/}defrag and
the current allocation context.

The primary difference is that defrag configured to "madvise" value will
clear __GFP_WAIT flag from the core gfp mask to make the allocation
lighter for all mappings which are not backed by VM_HUGEPAGE vmas.  If
memcg charge path ignores this fact we will get light allocation but the a
potential memcg reclaim would kill the whole point of the configuration.

Fix the mismatch by providing the same gfp mask used for the allocation to
the charge functions.  This is quite easy for all paths except for
hugepaged kernel thread with !CONFIG_NUMA which is doing a pre-allocation
long before the allocated page is used in collapse_huge_page via
khugepaged_alloc_page.  To prevent from cluttering the whole code path
from khugepaged_do_scan we simply return the current flags as per
khugepaged_defrag() value which might have changed since the
preallocation.  If somebody changed the value of the knob we would charge
differently but this shouldn't happen often and it is definitely not
critical because it would only lead to a reduced success rate of one-off
THP promotion.

Documentation/vm/unevictable-lru.txt: document interaction between compaction and the unevictable LRU

The memory compaction code uses the migration code to do most of the
work in compaction.  However, the compaction code interacts with the
unevictable LRU differently than migration code and this difference
should be noted in the documentation.

Currently, pages which are marked as unevictable are protected from
compaction, but not from other types of migration.  The POSIX real time
extension explicitly states that mlock() will prevent a major page
fault, but the spirit of this is that mlock() should give a process the
ability to control sources of latency, including minor page faults.
However, the mlock manpage only explicitly says that a locked page will
not be written to swap and this can cause some confusion.  The
compaction code today does not give a developer who wants to avoid swap
but wants to have large contiguous areas available any method to achieve
this state.  This patch introduces a sysctl for controlling compaction
behavior with respect to the unevictable lru.  Users who demand no page
faults after a page is present can set compact_unevictable_allowed to 0
and users who need the large contiguous areas can enable compaction on
locked memory by leaving the default value of 1.

To illustrate this problem I wrote a quick test program that mmaps a
large number of 1MB files filled with random data.  These maps are
created locked and read only.  Then every other mmap is unmapped and I
attempt to allocate huge pages to the static huge page pool.  When the
compact_unevictable_allowed sysctl is 0, I cannot allocate hugepages
after fragmenting memory.  When the value is set to 1, allocations
succeed.
