      mm: hwpoison: drop lru_add_drain_all() in __soft_offline_page() · 9ab3b598
      Naoya Horiguchi 提交于
      A race condition starts to be visible in recent mmotm, where a PG_hwpoison
      flag is set on a migration source page *before* it's back in buddy page
      poo= l.
      
      This is problematic because no page flag is supposed to be set when
      freeing (see __free_one_page().) So the user-visible effect of this race
      is that it could trigger the BUG_ON() when soft-offlining is called.
      
      The root cause is that we call lru_add_drain_all() to make sure that the
      page is in buddy, but that doesn't work because this function just
      schedule= s a work item and doesn't wait its completion.
      drain_all_pages() does drainin= g directly, so simply dropping
      lru_add_drain_all() solves this problem.
      
      Fixes: f15bdfa8 ("mm/memory-failure.c: fix memory leak in successful soft offlining")

      vmscan: per memory cgroup slab shrinkers · cb731d6c
      Vladimir Davydov 提交于
      This patch adds SHRINKER_MEMCG_AWARE flag.  If a shrinker has this flag
      set, it will be called per memory cgroup.  The memory cgroup to scan
      objects from is passed in shrink_control->memcg.  If the memory cgroup
      is NULL, a memcg aware shrinker is supposed to scan objects from the
      global list.  Unaware shrinkers are only called on global pressure with
      memcg=NULL.

      mm, memory_hotplug/failure: drain single zone pcplists · c0554329
      Vlastimil Babka 提交于
      Memory hotplug and failure mechanisms have several places where pcplists
      are drained so that pages are returned to the buddy allocator and can be
      e.g. prepared for offlining.  This is always done in the context of a
      single zone, we can reduce the pcplists drain to the single zone, which
      is now possible.
      
      The change should make memory offlining due to hotremove or failure
      faster and not disturbing unrelated pcplists anymore.

      mm: introduce single zone pcplists drain · 93481ff0
      Vlastimil Babka 提交于
      The functions for draining per-cpu pages back to buddy allocators
      currently always operate on all zones.  There are however several cases
      where the drain is only needed in the context of a single zone, and
      spilling other pcplists is a waste of time both due to the extra
      spilling and later refilling.
      
      This patch introduces new zone pointer parameter to drain_all_pages()
      and changes the dummy parameter of drain_local_pages() to be also a zone
      pointer.  When NULL is passed, the functions operate on all zones as
      usual.  Passing a specific zone pointer reduces the work to the single
      zone.
      
      All callers are updated to pass the NULL pointer in this patch.
      Conversion to single zone (where appropriate) is done in further
      patches.

      hwpoison: fix the handling path of the victimized page frame that belong to non-LRU · 0bc1f8b0
      Chen Yucong 提交于
      Until now, the kernel has the same policy to handle victimized page
      frames that belong to kernel-space(reserved/slab-subsystem) or
      non-LRU(unknown page state).  In other word, the result of handling
      either of these victimized page frames is (IGNORED | FAILED), and the
      return value of memory_failure() is -EBUSY.
      
      This patch is to avoid that memory_failure() returns very soon due to
      the "true" value of (!PageLRU(p)), and it also ensures that
      action_result() can report more precise information("reserved kernel",
      "kernel slab", and "unknown page state") instead of "non LRU",
      especially for memory errors which are detected by memory-scrubbing.

      mm/memory-failure.c: support use of a dedicated thread to handle SIGBUS(BUS_MCEERR_AO) · 3ba08129
      Naoya Horiguchi 提交于
      Currently memory error handler handles action optional errors in the
      deferred manner by default.  And if a recovery aware application wants
      to handle it immediately, it can do it by setting PF_MCE_EARLY flag.
      However, such signal can be sent only to the main thread, so it's
      problematic if the application wants to have a dedicated thread to
      handler such signals.
      
      So this patch adds dedicated thread support to memory error handler.  We
      have PF_MCE_EARLY flags for each thread separately, so with this patch
      AO signal is sent to the thread with PF_MCE_EARLY flag set, not the main
      thread.  If you want to implement a dedicated thread, you call prctl()
      to set PF_MCE_EARLY on the thread.
      
      Memory error handler collects processes to be killed, so this patch lets
      it check PF_MCE_EARLY flag on each thread in the collecting routines.
      
      No behavioral change for all non-early kill cases.
      
      Tony said:
      
      : The old behavior was crazy - someone with a multithreaded process might
      : well expect that if they call prctl(PF_MCE_EARLY) in just one thread, then
      : that thread would see the SIGBUS with si_code = BUS_MCEERR_A0 - even if
      : that thread wasn't the main thread for the process.

      mm/memory-failure.c: don't let collect_procs() skip over processes for MF_ACTION_REQUIRED · 74614de1
      Tony Luck 提交于
      When Linux sees an "action optional" machine check (where h/w has reported
      an error that is not in the current execution path) we generally do not
      want to signal a process, since most processes do not have a SIGBUS
      handler - we'd just prematurely terminate the process for a problem that
      they might never actually see.
      
      task_early_kill() decides whether to consider a process - and it checks
      whether this specific process has been marked for early signals with
      "prctl", or if the system administrator has requested early signals for
      all processes using /proc/sys/vm/memory_failure_early_kill.
      
      But for MF_ACTION_REQUIRED case we must not defer.  The error is in the
      execution path of the current thread so we must send the SIGBUS
      immediatley.
      
      Fix by passing a flag argument through collect_procs*() to
      task_early_kill() so it knows whether we can defer or must take action.

      mm/memory-failure.c-failure: send right signal code to correct thread · a70ffcac
      Tony Luck 提交于
      When a thread in a multi-threaded application hits a machine check because
      of an uncorrectable error in memory - we want to send the SIGBUS with
      si.si_code = BUS_MCEERR_AR to that thread.  Currently we fail to do that
      if the active thread is not the primary thread in the process.
      collect_procs() just finds primary threads and this test:
      
      	if ((flags & MF_ACTION_REQUIRED) && t == current) {
      
      will see that the thread we found isn't the current thread and so send a
      si.si_code = BUS_MCEERR_AO to the primary (and nothing to the active
      thread at this time).
      
      We can fix this by checking whether "current" shares the same mm with the
      process that collect_procs() said owned the page.  If so, we send the
      SIGBUS to current (with code BUS_MCEERR_AR).

      mm, migration: add destination page freeing callback · 68711a74
      David Rientjes 提交于
      Memory migration uses a callback defined by the caller to determine how to
      allocate destination pages.  When migration fails for a source page,
      however, it frees the destination page back to the system.
      
      This patch adds a memory migration callback defined by the caller to
      determine how to free destination pages.  If a caller, such as memory
      compaction, builds its own freelist for migration targets, this can reuse
      already freed memory instead of scanning additional memory.
      
      If the caller provides a function to handle freeing of destination pages,
      it is called when page migration fails.  If the caller passes NULL then
      freeing back to the system will be handled as usual.  This patch
      introduces no functional change.

      mem-hotplug: implement get/put_online_mems · bfc8c901
      Vladimir Davydov 提交于
      kmem_cache_{create,destroy,shrink} need to get a stable value of
      cpu/node online mask, because they init/destroy/access per-cpu/node
      kmem_cache parts, which can be allocated or destroyed on cpu/mem
      hotplug.  To protect against cpu hotplug, these functions use
      {get,put}_online_cpus.  However, they do nothing to synchronize with
      memory hotplug - taking the slab_mutex does not eliminate the
      possibility of race as described in patch 2.
      
      What we need there is something like get_online_cpus, but for memory.
      We already have lock_memory_hotplug, which serves for the purpose, but
      it's a bit of a hammer right now, because it's backed by a mutex.  As a
      result, it imposes some limitations to locking order, which are not
      desirable, and can't be used just like get_online_cpus.  That's why in
      patch 1 I substitute it with get/put_online_mems, which work exactly
      like get/put_online_cpus except they block not cpu, but memory hotplug.
      
      [ v1 can be found at https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/6/68.  I NAK'ed it by
        myself, because it used an rw semaphore for get/put_online_mems,
        making them dead lock prune.  ]
      
      This patch (of 2):
      
      {un}lock_memory_hotplug, which is used to synchronize against memory
      hotplug, is currently backed by a mutex, which makes it a bit of a
      hammer - threads that only want to get a stable value of online nodes
      mask won't be able to proceed concurrently.  Also, it imposes some
      strong locking ordering rules on it, which narrows down the set of its
      usage scenarios.
      
      This patch introduces get/put_online_mems, which are the same as
      get/put_online_cpus, but for memory hotplug, i.e.  executing a code
      inside a get/put_online_mems section will guarantee a stable value of
      online nodes, present pages, etc.
      
      lock_memory_hotplug()/unlock_memory_hotplug() are removed altogether.

      mm: close PageTail race · 668f9abb
      David Rientjes 提交于
      Commit bf6bddf1 ("mm: introduce compaction and migration for
      ballooned pages") introduces page_count(page) into memory compaction
      which dereferences page->first_page if PageTail(page).
      
      This results in a very rare NULL pointer dereference on the
      aforementioned page_count(page).  Indeed, anything that does
      compound_head(), including page_count() is susceptible to racing with
      prep_compound_page() and seeing a NULL or dangling page->first_page
      pointer.
      
      This patch uses Andrea's implementation of compound_trans_head() that
      deals with such a race and makes it the default compound_head()
      implementation.  This includes a read memory barrier that ensures that
      if PageTail(head) is true that we return a head page that is neither
      NULL nor dangling.  The patch then adds a store memory barrier to
      prep_compound_page() to ensure page->first_page is set.
      
      This is the safest way to ensure we see the head page that we are
      expecting, PageTail(page) is already in the unlikely() path and the
      memory barriers are unfortunately required.
      
      Hugetlbfs is the exception, we don't enforce a store memory barrier
      during init since no race is possible.

      cgroup: introduce cgroup_ino() · b1664924
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      mm/memory-failure.c::hwpoison_filter_task() has been reaching into
      cgroup to extract the associated ino to be used as a filtering
      criterion.  This is an implementation detail which shouldn't be
      depended upon from outside cgroup proper and is about to change with
      the scheduled kernfs conversion.
      
      This patch introduces a proper interface to determine the associated
      ino, cgroup_ino(), and updates hwpoison_filter_task() to use it
      instead of reaching directly into cgroup.

      mm/memory-failure.c: move refcount only in !MF_COUNT_INCREASED · 8d547ff4
      Naoya Horiguchi 提交于
      mce-test detected a test failure when injecting error to a thp tail
      page.  This is because we take page refcount of the tail page in
      madvise_hwpoison() while the fix in commit a3e0f9e4
      ("mm/memory-failure.c: transfer page count from head page to tail page
      after split thp") assumes that we always take refcount on the head page.
      
      When a real memory error happens we take refcount on the head page where
      memory_failure() is called without MF_COUNT_INCREASED set, so it seems
      to me that testing memory error on thp tail page using madvise makes
      little sense.
      
      This patch cancels moving refcount in !MF_COUNT_INCREASED for valid
      testing.

      mm/memory-failure.c: shift page lock from head page to tail page after thp split · 54b9dd14
      Naoya Horiguchi 提交于
      After thp split in hwpoison_user_mappings(), we hold page lock on the
      raw error page only between try_to_unmap, hence we are in danger of race
      condition.
      
      I found in the RHEL7 MCE-relay testing that we have "bad page" error
      when a memory error happens on a thp tail page used by qemu-kvm:

      The reason of this bug is that a page fault happens before unlocking the
      head page at the end of memory_failure().  This strange page fault is
      trying to access to address 0x20 and I'm not sure why qemu-kvm does
      this, but anyway as a result the SIGSEGV makes qemu-kvm exit and on the
      way we catch the bad page bug/warning because we try to free a locked
      page (which was the former head page.)
      
      To fix this, this patch suggests to shift page lock from head page to
      tail page just after thp split.  SIGSEGV still happens, but it affects
      only error affected VMs, not a whole system.

         CR2: 0000000000000058
      
      The reasoning of this problem is shown below:
       - when we have a memory error on a thp tail page, the memory error
         handler grabs a refcount of the head page to keep the thp under us.
       - Before unmapping the error page from processes, we split the thp,
         where page refcounts of both of head/tail pages don't change.
       - Then we call try_to_unmap() over the error page (which was a tail
         page before). We didn't pin the error page to handle the memory error,
         this error page is freed and removed from LRU list.
       - We never have the error page on LRU list, so the first page state
         check returns "unknown page," then we move to the second check
         with the saved page flag.
       - The saved page flag have PG_tail set, so the second page state check
         returns "hugepage."
       - We call me_huge_page() for freed error page, then we hit the above panic.
      
      The root cause is that we didn't move refcount from the head page to the
      tail page after split thp.  So this patch suggests to do this.
      
      This panic was introduced by commit 524fca1e ("HWPOISON: fix
      misjudgement of page_action() for errors on mlocked pages").  Note that we
      did have the same refcount problem before this commit, but it was just
      ignored because we had only first page state check which returned "unknown
      page." The commit changed the refcount problem from "doesn't work" to
      "kernel panic."

      kfifo API type safety · 498d319b
      Stefani Seibold 提交于
      This patch enhances the type safety for the kfifo API.  It is now safe
      to put const data into a non const FIFO and the API will now generate a
      compiler warning when reading from the fifo where the destination
      address is pointing to a const variable.
      
      As a side effect the kfifo_put() does now expect the value of an element
      instead a pointer to the element.  This was suggested Russell King.  It
      make the handling of the kfifo_put easier since there is no need to
      create a helper variable for getting the address of a pointer or to pass
      integers of different sizes.
      
      IMHO the API break is okay, since there are currently only six users of
      kfifo_put().
      
      The code is also cleaner by kicking out the "if (0)" expressions.

      mm/hwpoison: don't set migration type twice to avoid holding heavily contend zone->lock · 0be35096
      Wanpeng Li 提交于
      Set pageblock migration type will hold zone->lock which is heavy contended
      in system to avoid race.  However, soft offline page will set pageblock
      migration type twice during get page if the page is in used, not hugetlbfs
      page and not on lru list.  There is unnecessary to set the pageblock
      migration type and hold heavy contended zone->lock again if the first
      round get page have already set the pageblock to right migration type.
      
      The trick here is migration type is MIGRATE_ISOLATE.  There are other two
      parts can change MIGRATE_ISOLATE except hwpoison.  One is memory hoplug,
      however, we hold lock_memory_hotplug() which avoid race.  The second is
      CMA which umovable page allocation requst can't fallback to.  So it's safe
      here.
