Maximum page order can be at max 10 which can be accomodated in short
data type(2 bytes).  last_migrate_reason is defined as enum type whose
values can be accomodated in short data type (2 bytes).

Total structure size is currently 16 bytes but after changing structure
size it goes to 12 bytes.

It was observed that under cma_alloc fail log, pr_info was used instead
of pr_err.  This will lead to problems if printk debug level is set to
below 7.  In this case the cma_alloc failure log will not be captured in
the log and it will be difficult to debug.

Simply replace the pr_info with pr_err to capture failure log.

empty_bad_page() and empty_bad_pte_table() seem to be relics from old
days which is not used by any code for a long time.  I have tried to
find when exactly but this is not really all that straightforward due to
many code movements - traces disappear around 2.4 times.

Anyway no code really references neither empty_bad_page nor
empty_bad_pte_table.  We only allocate the storage which is not used by
anybody so remove them.

Memory allocations can happen before the swap_slots cache initialization
is completed during cpu bring up.  If we are low on memory, we could
call get_swap_page() and access swap_slots_cache before it is fully
initialized.

Add a check in get_swap_page() for initialized swap_slots_cache to
prevent this condition.  Similar check already exists in free_swap_slot.
Also annotate the checks to indicate the likely condition.

We also added a memory barrier to make sure that the locks
initialization are done before the assignment of cache->slots and
cache->slots_ret pointers.  This ensures the assumption that it is safe
to acquire the slots cache locks and use the slots cache when the
corresponding cache->slots or cache->slots_ret pointers are non null.

This is an optimization patch that only affect mmu_notifier users which
rely on the invalidate_range() callback.  This patch avoids calling that
callback twice in a row from inside __mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end

Existing pattern (before this patch):
    mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()
        pte/pmd/pud_clear_flush_notify()
            mmu_notifier_invalidate_range()
    mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end()
        mmu_notifier_invalidate_range()

New pattern (after this patch):
    mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()
        pte/pmd/pud_clear_flush_notify()
            mmu_notifier_invalidate_range()
    mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_only_end()

We call the invalidate_range callback after clearing the page table
under the page table lock and we skip the call to invalidate_range
inside the __mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end() function.

This patch only affects users of mmu_notifier->invalidate_range callback
which are device drivers related to ATS/PASID, CAPI, IOMMUv2, SVM ...
and it is an optimization for those users.  Everyone else is unaffected
by it.

When clearing a pte/pmd we are given a choice to notify the event under
the page table lock (notify version of *_clear_flush helpers do call the
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range).  But that notification is not necessary
in all cases.

This patch removes almost all cases where it is useless to have a call
to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range before
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end.  It also adds documentation in all
those cases explaining why.

Below is a more in depth analysis of why this is fine to do this:

For secondary TLB (non CPU TLB) like IOMMU TLB or device TLB (when
device use thing like ATS/PASID to get the IOMMU to walk the CPU page
table to access a process virtual address space).  There is only 2 cases
when you need to notify those secondary TLB while holding page table
lock when clearing a pte/pmd:

  A) page backing address is free before mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end
  B) a page table entry is updated to point to a new page (COW, write fault
     on zero page, __replace_page(), ...)

Case A is obvious you do not want to take the risk for the device to write
to a page that might now be used by something completely different.

Case B is more subtle. For correctness it requires the following sequence
to happen:
  - take page table lock
  - clear page table entry and notify (pmd/pte_huge_clear_flush_notify())
  - set page table entry to point to new page

If clearing the page table entry is not followed by a notify before setting
the new pte/pmd value then you can break memory model like C11 or C++11 for
the device.

Consider the following scenario (device use a feature similar to ATS/
PASID):

Two address addrA and addrB such that |addrA - addrB| >= PAGE_SIZE we
assume they are write protected for COW (other case of B apply too).

[Time N] -----------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0  {try to write to addrA}
CPU-thread-1  {try to write to addrB}
CPU-thread-2  {}
CPU-thread-3  {}
DEV-thread-0  {read addrA and populate device TLB}
DEV-thread-2  {read addrB and populate device TLB}
[Time N+1] ---------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0  {COW_step0: {mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start(addrA)}}
CPU-thread-1  {COW_step0: {mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start(addrB)}}
CPU-thread-2  {}
CPU-thread-3  {}
DEV-thread-0  {}
DEV-thread-2  {}
[Time N+2] ---------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0  {COW_step1: {update page table point to new page for addrA}}
CPU-thread-1  {COW_step1: {update page table point to new page for addrB}}
CPU-thread-2  {}
CPU-thread-3  {}
DEV-thread-0  {}
DEV-thread-2  {}
[Time N+3] ---------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0  {preempted}
CPU-thread-1  {preempted}
CPU-thread-2  {write to addrA which is a write to new page}
CPU-thread-3  {}
DEV-thread-0  {}
DEV-thread-2  {}
[Time N+3] ---------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0  {preempted}
CPU-thread-1  {preempted}
CPU-thread-2  {}
CPU-thread-3  {write to addrB which is a write to new page}
DEV-thread-0  {}
DEV-thread-2  {}
[Time N+4] ---------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0  {preempted}
CPU-thread-1  {COW_step3: {mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end(addrB)}}
CPU-thread-2  {}
CPU-thread-3  {}
DEV-thread-0  {}
DEV-thread-2  {}
[Time N+5] ---------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0  {preempted}
CPU-thread-1  {}
CPU-thread-2  {}
CPU-thread-3  {}
DEV-thread-0  {read addrA from old page}
DEV-thread-2  {read addrB from new page}

So here because at time N+2 the clear page table entry was not pair with a
notification to invalidate the secondary TLB, the device see the new value
for addrB before seing the new value for addrA.  This break total memory
ordering for the device.

When changing a pte to write protect or to point to a new write protected
page with same content (KSM) it is ok to delay invalidate_range callback
to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end() outside the page table lock.  This
is true even if the thread doing page table update is preempted right
after releasing page table lock before calling
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end

Thanks to Andrea for thinking of a problematic scenario for COW.

Use BUG_ON(in_interrupt()) in zs_map_object().  This is not a new
BUG_ON(), it's always been there, but was recently changed to
VM_BUG_ON().  There are several problems there.  First, we use use
per-CPU mappings both in zsmalloc and in zram, and interrupt may easily
corrupt those buffers.  Second, and more importantly, we believe it's
possible to start leaking sensitive information.  Consider the following
case:

-> process P
	swap out
	 zram
	  per-cpu mapping CPU1
	   compress page A
-> IRQ

	swap out
	 zram
	  per-cpu mapping CPU1
	   compress page B
	    write page from per-cpu mapping CPU1 to zsmalloc pool
	iret

-> process P
	    write page from per-cpu mapping CPU1 to zsmalloc pool  [*]
	return

* so we store overwritten data that actually belongs to another
  page (task) and potentially contains sensitive data. And when
  process P will page fault it's going to read (swap in) that
  other task's data.

Over all, ZSTD has slower WRITE, but much faster READ (perhaps
a static compression buffer used during the test helped ZSTD a
lot), which results in faster test results.

: I did test with my sample data and compared zstd with deflate.  zstd's
: compress ratio is lower a little bit but compression speed is much faster
: 3 times more and decompress speed is too 2 times more.  With different
: data, it is different but overall, zstd would be better for speed at the
: cost of a little lower compress ratio(about 5%) so I believe it's worth to

for_each_memblock_type macro function relies on idx variable defined in
the caller context.  Silent macro arguments are almost always wrong
thing to do.  They make code harder to read and easier to get wrong.
Let's use an explicit iterator parameter for for_each_memblock_type and
make the code more obious.  This patch is a mere cleanup and it
shouldn't introduce any functional change.

We have a hardcoded 120s timeout after which the memory offline fails
basically since the hot remove has been introduced.  This is essentially
a policy implemented in the kernel.  Moreover there is no way to adjust
the timeout and so we are sometimes facing memory offline failures if
the system is under a heavy memory pressure or very intensive CPU
workload on large machines.

It is not very clear what purpose the timeout actually serves.  The
offline operation is interruptible by a signal so if userspace wants
some timeout based termination this can be done trivially by sending a
signal.

If there is a strong usecase to do this from the kernel then we should
do it properly and have a it tunable from the userspace with the timeout
disabled by default along with the explanation who uses it and for what
purporse.

Patch series "mm, memory_hotplug: redefine memory offline retry logic", v2.

While testing memory hotplug on a large 4TB machine we have noticed that
memory offlining is just too eager to fail.  The primary reason is that
the retry logic is just too easy to give up.  We have 4 ways out of the
offline

	- we have a permanent failure (isolation or memory notifiers fail,
	  or hugetlb pages cannot be dropped)
	- userspace sends a signal
	- a hardcoded 120s timeout expires
	- page migration fails 5 times

This is way too convoluted and it doesn't scale very well.  We have seen
both temporary migration failures as well as 120s being triggered.
After removing those restrictions we were able to pass stress testing
during memory hot remove without any other negative side effects
observed.  Therefore I suggest dropping both hard coded policies.  I
couldn't have found any specific reason for them in the changelog.  I
neither didn't get any response [1] from Kamezawa.  If we need some
upper bound - e.g.  timeout based - then we should have a proper and
user defined policy for that.  In any case there should be a clear use
case when introducing it.

This patch (of 2):

Memory offlining can fail too eagerly under heavy memory pressure.

  page:ffffea22a646bd00 count:255 mapcount:252 mapping:ffff88ff926c9f38 index:0x3
  flags: 0x9855fe40010048(uptodate|active|mappedtodisk)
  page dumped because: isolation failed
  page->mem_cgroup:ffff8801cd662000
  memory offlining [mem 0x18b580000000-0x18b5ffffffff] failed

Isolation has failed here because the page is not on LRU.  Most probably
because it was on the pcp LRU cache or it has been removed from the LRU
already but it hasn't been freed yet.  In both cases the page doesn't
look non-migrable so retrying more makes sense.

__offline_pages seems rather cluttered when it comes to the retry logic.
We have 5 retries at maximum and a timeout.  We could argue whether the
timeout makes sense but failing just because of a race when somebody
isoltes a page from LRU or puts it on a pcp LRU lists is just wrong.  It
only takes it to race with a process which unmaps some pages and remove
them from the LRU list and we can fail the whole offline because of
something that is a temporary condition and actually not harmful for the
offline.

Please note that unmovable pages should be already excluded during
start_isolate_page_range.  We could argue that has_unmovable_pages is
racy and MIGRATE_MOVABLE check doesn't provide any hard guarantee either
but kernel zones (aka < ZONE_MOVABLE) will very likely detect unmovable
pages in most cases and movable zone shouldn't contain unmovable pages
at all.  Some of those pages might be pinned but not for ever because
that would be a bug on its own.  In any case the context is still
interruptible and so the userspace can easily bail out when the
operation takes too long.  This is certainly better behavior than a
hardcoded retry loop which is racy.

Fix this by removing the max retry count and only rely on the timeout
resp. interruption by a signal from the userspace.  Also retry rather
than fail when check_pages_isolated sees some !free pages because those
could be a result of the race as well.

Reserved pages should be completely ignored by the core mm because they
have a special meaning for their owners.  has_unmovable_pages doesn't
check those so we rely on other tests (reference count, or PageLRU) to
fail on such pages.  Althought this happens to work it is safer to
simply check for those explicitly and do not rely on the owner of the
page to abuse those fields for special purposes.

Please note that this is more of a further fortification of the code
rahter than a fix of an existing issue.

Joonsoo has noticed that "mm: drop migrate type checks from
has_unmovable_pages" would break CMA allocator because it relies on
has_unmovable_pages returning false even for CMA pageblocks which in
fact don't have to be movable:

 alloc_contig_range
   start_isolate_page_range
     set_migratetype_isolate
       has_unmovable_pages

This is a result of the code sharing between CMA and memory hotplug
while each one has a different idea of what has_unmovable_pages should
return.  This is unfortunate but fixing it properly would require a lot
of code duplication.

Fix the issue by introducing the requested migrate type argument and
special case MIGRATE_CMA case where CMA page blocks are handled
properly.  This will work for memory hotplug because it requires
MIGRATE_MOVABLE.

Michael has noticed that the memory offline tries to migrate kernel code
pages when doing

 echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory0/online

The current implementation will fail the operation after several failed
page migration attempts but we shouldn't even attempt to migrate that
memory and fail right away because this memory is clearly not
migrateable.  This will become a real problem when we drop the retry
loop counter resp.  timeout.

The real problem is in has_unmovable_pages in fact.  We should fail if
there are any non migrateable pages in the area.  In orther to guarantee
that remove the migrate type checks because MIGRATE_MOVABLE is not
guaranteed to contain only migrateable pages.  It is merely a heuristic.
Similarly MIGRATE_CMA does guarantee that the page allocator doesn't
allocate any non-migrateable pages from the block but CMA allocations
themselves are unlikely to migrateable.  Therefore remove both checks.

When a page fault occurs for a swap entry, the physical swap readahead
(not the VMA base swap readahead) may readahead several swap entries
after the fault swap entry.  The readahead algorithm calculates some of
the swap entries to readahead via increasing the offset of the fault
swap entry without checking whether they are beyond the end of the swap
device and it relys on the __swp_swapcount() and swapcache_prepare() to
check it.  Although __swp_swapcount() checks for the swap entry passed
in, it will complain with the error message as follow for the expected
invalid swap entry.  This may make the end users confused.

  swap_info_get: Bad swap offset entry 0200f8a7

To fix the false error message, the swap entry checking is added in
swapin_readahead() to avoid to pass the out-of-bound swap entries and
the swap entry reserved for the swap header to __swp_swapcount() and
swapcache_prepare().

When SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO swapped-in pages are shared by several
processes, it can cause unnecessary memory wastage by skipping swap
cache.  Because, with swapin fault by read, they could share a page if
the page were in swap cache.  Thus, it avoids allocating same content
new pages.

This patch makes the swapcache skipping work only if the swap pte is
non-sharable.

With fast swap storage, the platforms want to use swap more aggressively

The rw_page() based synchronous devices like zram, pmem and btt are such
fast storage.  When I profile swapin performance with zram lz4
decompress test, S/W overhead is more than 70%.  Maybe, it would be
bigger in nvdimm.

fixed a weird thing (i.e., reset BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES flag
unconditionally whenever revalidat_disk is called) so zram doesn't need
to reset the flag any more when revalidating the bdev.  Instead, set the
flag just once when the zram device is created.

Now that we have a NUMA-aware version of kmalloc_array() we can use it
instead of kmalloc_node() without an overflow check in the size
calculation.

Patch series "Add kmalloc_array_node() and kcalloc_node()".

Our current memeory allocation routines suffer form an API imbalance,
for one we have kmalloc_array() and kcalloc() which check for overflows
in size multiplication and we have kmalloc_node() and kzalloc_node()
which allow for memory allocation on a certain NUMA node but don't check
for eventual overflows.

This patch (of 6):

We have kmalloc_array() and kcalloc() wrappers on top of kmalloc() which
ensure us overflow free multiplication for the size of a memory
allocation but these implementations are not NUMA-aware.

Likewise we have kmalloc_node() which is a NUMA-aware version of
kmalloc() but the implementation is not aware of any possible overflows
in eventual size calculations.

Introduce a combination of the two above cases to have a NUMA-node aware
version of kmalloc_array() and kcalloc().

When slub_debug=O is set.  It is possible to clear debug flags for an
"unmergeable" slab cache in kmem_cache_open().  It makes the "unmergeable"
cache became "mergeable" in sysfs_slab_add().

These caches will generate their "unique IDs" by create_unique_id(), but
it is possible to create identical unique IDs.  In my experiment,
sgpool-128, names_cache, biovec-256 generate the same ID ":Ft-0004096" and
the kernel reports "sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename
'/kernel/slab/:Ft-0004096'".

To repeat my experiment, set disable_higher_order_debug=1,
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON=y in kernel-4.14.

Fix this issue by setting unmergeable=1 if slub_debug=O and the the
default slub_debug contains any no-merge flags.

call path:
kmem_cache_create()
  __kmem_cache_alias()	-> we set SLAB_NEVER_MERGE flags here
  create_cache()
    __kmem_cache_create()
      kmem_cache_open()	-> clear DEBUG_METADATA_FLAGS
      sysfs_slab_add()	-> the slab cache is mergeable now

struct kmem_cache::flags is "unsigned long" which is unnecessary on
64-bit as no flags are defined in the higher bits.

Switch the field to 32-bit and save some space on x86_64 until such
flags appear:

	add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/107 up/down: 0/-657 (-657)

SLAB is bloated temporarily by switching to "unsigned long", but only
temporarily.

The kernel may panic when an oom happens without killable process
sometimes it is caused by huge unreclaimable slabs used by kernel.

Although kdump could help debug such problem, however, kdump is not
available on all architectures and it might be malfunction sometime.
And, since kernel already panic it is worthy capturing such information
in dmesg to aid touble shooting.

Print out unreclaimable slab info (used size and total size) which
actual memory usage is not zero (num_objs * size != 0) when
unreclaimable slabs amount is greater than total user memory (LRU
pages).

The output looks like:

According to discussion with Christoph
(https://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=150695909709711&w=2), it sounds like
it is pointless to keep CONFIG_SLABINFO around.

This patch removes the CONFIG_SLABINFO config option, but /proc/slabinfo
is still available.
