Nick Piggin reported that the allocator may see an empty nodemask when
changing cpuset's mems[1].  It happens only on the kernel that do not do
atomic nodemask_t stores.  (MAX_NUMNODES > BITS_PER_LONG)

But I found that there is also a problem on the kernel that can do atomic
nodemask_t stores.  The problem is that the allocator can't find a node to
alloc page when changing cpuset's mems though there is a lot of free
memory.  The reason is like this:

(mpol: mempolicy)
	task1			task1's mpol	task2
	alloc page		1
	  alloc on node0? NO	1
				1		change mems from 1 to 0
				1		rebind task1's mpol
				0-1		  set new bits
				0	  	  clear disallowed bits
	  alloc on node1? NO	0
	  ...
	can't alloc page
	  goto oom

I can use the attached program reproduce it by the following step:

# mkdir /dev/cpuset
# mount -t cpuset cpuset /dev/cpuset
# mkdir /dev/cpuset/1
# echo `cat /dev/cpuset/cpus` > /dev/cpuset/1/cpus
# echo `cat /dev/cpuset/mems` > /dev/cpuset/1/mems
# echo $$ > /dev/cpuset/1/tasks
# numactl --membind=`cat /dev/cpuset/mems` ./cpuset_mem_hog <nr_tasks> &
   <nr_tasks> = max(nr_cpus - 1, 1)
# killall -s SIGUSR1 cpuset_mem_hog
# ./change_mems.sh

several hours later, oom will happen though there is a lot of free memory.

This patchset fixes this problem by expanding the nodes range first(set
newly allowed bits) and shrink it lazily(clear newly disallowed bits).  So
we use a variable to tell the write-side task that read-side task is
reading nodemask, and the write-side task clears newly disallowed nodes
after read-side task ends the current memory allocation.

This patch:

In order to fix no node to alloc memory, when we want to update mempolicy
and mems_allowed, we expand the set of nodes first (set all the newly
nodes) and shrink the set of nodes lazily(clean disallowed nodes), But the
mempolicy's rebind functions may breaks the expanding.

So we restructure the mempolicy's rebind functions and split the rebind
work to two steps, just like the update of cpuset's mems: The 1st step:
expand the set of the mempolicy's nodes.  The 2nd step: shrink the set of
the mempolicy's nodes.  It is used when there is no real lock to protect
the mempolicy in the read-side.  Otherwise we can do rebind work at once.

In order to implement it, we define

	enum mpol_rebind_step {
		MPOL_REBIND_ONCE,
		MPOL_REBIND_STEP1,
		MPOL_REBIND_STEP2,
		MPOL_REBIND_NSTEP,
	};

If the mempolicy needn't be updated by two steps, we can pass
MPOL_REBIND_ONCE to the rebind functions.  Or we can pass
MPOL_REBIND_STEP1 to do the first step of the rebind work and pass
MPOL_REBIND_STEP2 to do the second step work.

Besides that, it maybe long time between these two step and we have to
release the lock that protects mempolicy and mems_allowed.  If we hold the
lock once again, we must check whether the current mempolicy is under the
rebinding (the first step has been done) or not, because the task may
alloc a new mempolicy when we don't hold the lock.  So we defined the
following flag to identify it:

#define MPOL_F_REBINDING (1 << 2)

The new functions will be used in the next patch.

Introduce cpuset_cpus_allowed_fallback() helper to fix the cpuset problems
with select_fallback_rq(). It can be called from any context and can't use
any cpuset locks including task_lock(). It is called when the task doesn't
have online cpus in ->cpus_allowed but ttwu/etc must be able to find a
suitable cpu.

I am not proud of this patch. Everything which needs such a fat comment
can't be good even if correct. But I'd prefer to not change the locking
rules in the code I hardly understand, and in any case I believe this
simple change make the code much more correct compared to deadlocks we
currently have.

This patch just states the fact the cpusets/cpuhotplug interaction is
broken and removes the deadlockable code which only pretends to work.

- cpuset_lock() doesn't really work. It is needed for
  cpuset_cpus_allowed_locked() but we can't take this lock in
  try_to_wake_up()->select_fallback_rq() path.

- cpuset_lock() is deadlockable. Suppose that a task T bound to CPU takes
  callback_mutex. If cpu_down(CPU) happens before T drops callback_mutex
  stop_machine() preempts T, then migration_call(CPU_DEAD) tries to take
  cpuset_lock() and hangs forever because CPU is already dead and thus
  T can't be scheduled.

- cpuset_cpus_allowed_locked() is deadlockable too. It takes task_lock()
  which is not irq-safe, but try_to_wake_up() can be called from irq.

Kill them, and change select_fallback_rq() to use cpu_possible_mask, like
we currently do without CONFIG_CPUSETS.

Also, with or without this patch, with or without CONFIG_CPUSETS, the
callers of select_fallback_rq() can race with each other or with
set_cpus_allowed() pathes.

The subsequent patches try to to fix these problems.

Since (e761b772: cpu hotplug, sched: Introduce cpu_active_map and redo
sched domain managment) we have cpu_active_mask which is suppose to rule
scheduler migration and load-balancing, except it never (fully) did.

The particular problem being solved here is a crash in try_to_wake_up()
where select_task_rq() ends up selecting an offline cpu because
select_task_rq_fair() trusts the sched_domain tree to reflect the
current state of affairs, similarly select_task_rq_rt() trusts the
root_domain.

However, the sched_domains are updated from CPU_DEAD, which is after the
cpu is taken offline and after stop_machine is done. Therefore it can
race perfectly well with code assuming the domains are right.

Cure this by building the domains from cpu_active_mask on
CPU_DOWN_PREPARE.

Currently partition_sched_domains() takes a 'struct cpumask
*doms_new' which is a kmalloc'ed array of cpumask_t.  You can't
have such an array if 'struct cpumask' is undefined, as we plan
for CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y.

So, we make this an array of cpumask_var_t instead: this is the
same for the CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n case, but requires
multiple allocations for the CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y case.
Hence we add alloc_sched_domains() and free_sched_domains()
functions.

Currently, new mode of the attach function can only tell the subsystem

needs that information for each thread that's being moved, but if one were

Fix allocating page cache/slab object on the unallowed node when memory
spread is set by updating tasks' mems_allowed after its cpuset's mems is
changed.

In order to update tasks' mems_allowed in time, we must modify the code of
memory policy.  Because the memory policy is applied in the process's
context originally.  After applying this patch, one task directly
manipulates anothers mems_allowed, and we use alloc_lock in the
task_struct to protect mems_allowed and memory policy of the task.

But in the fast path, we didn't use lock to protect them, because adding a
lock may lead to performance regression.  But if we don't add a lock,the
task might see no nodes when changing cpuset's mems_allowed to some
non-overlapping set.  In order to avoid it, we set all new allowed nodes,
then clear newly disallowed ones.

[lee.schermerhorn@hp.com:
  The rework of mpol_new() to extract the adjusting of the node mask to
  apply cpuset and mpol flags "context" breaks set_mempolicy() and mbind()
  with MPOL_PREFERRED and a NULL nodemask--i.e., explicit local
  allocation.  Fix this by adding the check for MPOL_PREFERRED and empty
  node mask to mpol_new_mpolicy().

  Remove the now unneeded 'nodes = NULL' from mpol_new().

  Note that mpol_new_mempolicy() is always called with a non-NULL
  'nodes' parameter now that it has been removed from mpol_new().
  Therefore, we don't need to test nodes for NULL before testing it for
  'empty'.  However, just to be extra paranoid, add a VM_BUG_ON() to
  verify this assumption.]
[lee.schermerhorn@hp.com:

  I don't think the function name 'mpol_new_mempolicy' is descriptive
  enough to differentiate it from mpol_new().

  This function applies cpuset set context, usually constraining nodes
  to those allowed by the cpuset.  However, when the 'RELATIVE_NODES flag
  is set, it also translates the nodes.  So I settled on
  'mpol_set_nodemask()', because the comment block for mpol_new() mentions
  that we need to call this function to "set nodes".

  Some additional minor line length, whitespace and typo cleanup.]

The kernel still allocates the page caches on old node after modifying its
cpuset's mems when 'memory_spread_page' was set, or it didn't spread the
page cache evenly over all the nodes that faulting task is allowed to usr
after memory_spread_page was set.  it is caused by the old mem_allowed and
flags of the task, the current kernel doesn't updates them unless some
function invokes cpuset_update_task_memory_state(), it is too late
sometimes.We must update the mem_allowed and the flags of the tasks in
time.

Slab has the same problem.

Kthreads that have the PF_THREAD_BOUND bit set in their flags are bound to a
specific cpu.  Thus, their set of allowed cpus shall not change.

This patch prevents such threads from attaching to non-root cpusets.  They do
not have mempolicies that restrict them to a subset of system nodes and, since
their cpumask may never change, they cannot use any of the features of
cpusets.

The tasks will forever be a member of the root cpuset and will be returned
when listing the tasks attached to that cpuset.

Lockdep reported some possible circular locking info when we tested cpuset on
NUMA/fake NUMA box.

=======================================================
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
2.6.29-rc1-00224-ga6525042 #111
-------------------------------------------------------
bash/2968 is trying to acquire lock:
 (events){--..}, at: [<ffffffff8024c8cd>] flush_work+0x24/0xd8

but task is already holding lock:
 (cgroup_mutex){--..}, at: [<ffffffff8026ad1e>] cgroup_lock_live_group+0x12/0x29

which lock already depends on the new lock.
......
-------------------------------------------------------

Steps to reproduce:
# mkdir /dev/cpuset
# mount -t cpuset xxx /dev/cpuset
# mkdir /dev/cpuset/0
# echo 0 > /dev/cpuset/0/cpus
# echo 0 > /dev/cpuset/0/mems
# echo 1 > /dev/cpuset/0/memory_migrate
# cat /dev/zero > /dev/null &
# echo $! > /dev/cpuset/0/tasks

This is because async_rebuild_sched_domains has the following lock sequence:
run_workqueue(async_rebuild_sched_domains)
	-> do_rebuild_sched_domains -> cgroup_lock

But, attaching tasks when memory_migrate is set has following:
cgroup_lock_live_group(cgroup_tasks_write)
	-> do_migrate_pages -> flush_work

This patch fixes it by using a separate workqueue thread.

Impact: cleanups, reduce stack usage

This patch prepares for the next patch.  When we convert
cpuset.cpus_allowed to cpumask_var_t, (trialcs = *cs) no longer works.

Another result of this patch is reducing stack usage of trialcs.
sizeof(*cs) can be as large as 148 bytes on x86_64, so it's really not
good to have it on stack.

Impact: reduce stack usage

Allocate a global cpumask_var_t at boot, and use it in cpuset_attach(), so
we won't fail cpuset_attach().

This patchset converts cpuset to use new cpumask API, and thus
remove on stack cpumask_t to reduce stack usage.

Before:
 # cat kernel/cpuset.c include/linux/cpuset.h | grep -c cpumask_t
 21
After:
 # cat kernel/cpuset.c include/linux/cpuset.h | grep -c cpumask_t
 0

This patch:

Impact: reduce stack usage

It's safe to call cpulist_scnprintf inside callback_mutex, and thus we can
just remove the cpumask_t and no need to allocate a cpumask_var_t.

I found a bug on my dual-cpu box.  I created a sub cpuset in top cpuset
and assign 1 to its cpus.  And then we attach some tasks into this sub
cpuset.  After this, we offline CPU1.  Now, the tasks in this new cpuset
are moved into top cpuset automatically because there is no cpu in sub
cpuset.  Then we online CPU1, we find all the tasks which doesn't belong
to top cpuset originally just run on CPU0.

We fix this bug by setting task's cpu_allowed to cpu_possible_map when
attaching it into top cpuset.  This method needn't modify the current
behavior of cpusets on CPU hotplug, and all of tasks in top cpuset use
cpu_possible_map to initialize their cpu_allowed.

task_cs() calls task_subsys_state().

We must use rcu_read_lock() to protect cgroup_subsys_state().

It's correct that top_cpuset is never freed, but cgroup_subsys_state()
accesses css_set, this css_set maybe freed when task_cs() called.

We use use rcu_read_lock() to protect it.

When cpusets are enabled, it's necessary to print the triggering task's
set of allowable nodes so the subsequently printed meminfo can be
interpreted correctly.

We also print the task's cpuset name for informational purposes.

cpumask: change cpumask_scnprintf, cpumask_parse_user, cpulist_parse, and cpulist_scnprintf to take pointers.

Impact: change calling convention of existing cpumask APIs

Most cpumask functions started with cpus_: these have been replaced by
cpumask_ ones which take struct cpumask pointers as expected.

These four functions don't have good replacement names; fortunately
they're rarely used, so we just change them over.

this warning:

  kernel/cpuset.c: In function ‘generate_sched_domains’:
  kernel/cpuset.c:588: warning: ‘ndoms’ may be used uninitialized in this function

triggers because GCC does not recognize that ndoms stays uninitialized
only if doms is NULL - but that flow is covered at the end of
generate_sched_domains().

Help out GCC by initializing this variable to 0. (that's prudent anyway)

Also, this function needs a splitup and code flow simplification:
with 160 lines length it's clearly too long.

After adding a node into the machine, top cpuset's mems isn't updated.

By reviewing the code, we found that the update function

  cpuset_track_online_nodes()

was invoked after node_states[N_ONLINE] changes.  It is wrong because
N_ONLINE just means node has pgdat, and if node has/added memory, we use
N_HIGH_MEMORY.  So, We should invoke the update function after
node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] changes, just like its commit says.

This patch fixes it.  And we use notifier of memory hotplug instead of
direct calling of cpuset_track_online_nodes().

Impact: properly rebuild sched-domains on kmalloc() failure

When cpuset failed to generate sched domains due to kmalloc()
failure, the scheduler should fallback to the single partition
'fallback_doms' and rebuild sched domains, but now it only
destroys but not rebuilds sched domains.

The regression was introduced by:

| commit dfb512ec
| Author: Max Krasnyansky <maxk@qualcomm.com>
| Date:   Fri Aug 29 13:11:41 2008 -0700
|
|    sched: arch_reinit_sched_domains() must destroy domains to force rebuild

After the above commit, partition_sched_domains(0, NULL, NULL) will
only destroy sched domains and partition_sched_domains(1, NULL, NULL)
will create the default sched domain.

1) seq_file excepts that m->count == m->size when it's buf is full,
   so current code will causes bugs when buf is overflow.

2) There is not too good that cpuset accesses struct seq_file's
   fields directly.
