      memcg: fix memory migration of shmem swapcache · 50de1dd9
      Daisuke Nishimura 提交于
      In the current implementation mem_cgroup_end_migration() decides whether
      the page migration has succeeded or not by checking "oldpage->mapping".
      
      But if we are tring to migrate a shmem swapcache, the page->mapping of it
      is NULL from the begining, so the check would be invalid.  As a result,
      mem_cgroup_end_migration() assumes the migration has succeeded even if
      it's not, so "newpage" would be freed while it's not uncharged.
      
      This patch fixes it by passing mem_cgroup_end_migration() the result of
      the page migration.

      Jesper Juhl 提交于
      In mem_cgroup_alloc() we currently do either kmalloc() or vmalloc() then
      followed by memset() to zero the memory.  This can be more efficiently
      achieved by using kzalloc() and vzalloc().  There's also one situation
      where we can use kzalloc_node() - this is what's new in this version of
      the patch.

      memcg: fix deadlock between cpuset and memcg · dfe076b0
      Daisuke Nishimura 提交于
      Commit b1dd693e ("memcg: avoid deadlock between move charge and
      try_charge()") can cause another deadlock about mmap_sem on task migration
      if cpuset and memcg are mounted onto the same mount point.
      
      After the commit, cgroup_attach_task() has sequence like:
      
      cgroup_attach_task()
        ss->can_attach()
          cpuset_can_attach()
          mem_cgroup_can_attach()
            down_read(&mmap_sem)        (1)
        ss->attach()
          cpuset_attach()
            mpol_rebind_mm()
              down_write(&mmap_sem)     (2)
              up_write(&mmap_sem)
            cpuset_migrate_mm()
              do_migrate_pages()
                down_read(&mmap_sem)
                up_read(&mmap_sem)
          mem_cgroup_move_task()
            mem_cgroup_clear_mc()
              up_read(&mmap_sem)
      
      We can cause deadlock at (2) because we've already aquire the mmap_sem at (1).
      
      But the commit itself is necessary to fix deadlocks which have existed
      before the commit like:
      
      Ex.1)
                      move charge             |        try charge

      Ex.2)
                      move charge             |        try charge
        --------------------------------------+------------------------------

                ..                            |
                up_read(&mmap_sem)            |
                                              |  down_write(&mmap_sem)
          mem_cgroup_move_task()              |    ..
            mem_cgroup_move_charge()          |  __mem_cgroup_try_charge()
              down_read(&mmap_sem)            |    prepare_to_wait()
              -> cannot aquire the lock       |    if (mc.moving_task)
                                              |    -> true
                                              |      schedule()
                                              |      -> move charge should wake it up
      
      This patch fixes all of these problems by:
      1. revert the commit.
      2. To fix the Ex.1, we set mc.moving_task after mem_cgroup_count_precharge()
         has released the mmap_sem.
      3. To fix the Ex.2, we use down_read_trylock() instead of down_read() in
         mem_cgroup_move_charge() and, if it has failed to aquire the lock, cancel
         all extra charges, wake up all waiters, and retry trylock.

      memcg: fix unit mismatch in memcg oom limit calculation · f3e8eb70
      Johannes Weiner 提交于
      Adding the number of swap pages to the byte limit of a memory control
      group makes no sense.  Convert the pages to bytes before adding them.
      
      The only user of this code is the OOM killer, and the way it is used means
      that the error results in a higher OOM badness value.  Since the cgroup
      limit is the same for all tasks in the cgroup, the error should have no
      practical impact at the moment.
      
      But let's not wait for future or changing users to trip over it.

      memcg: add lock to synchronize page accounting and migration · dbd4ea78
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 提交于
      Introduce a new bit spin lock, PCG_MOVE_LOCK, to synchronize the page
      accounting and migration code.  This reworks the locking scheme of
      _update_stat() and _move_account() by adding new lock bit PCG_MOVE_LOCK,
      which is always taken under IRQ disable.
      
      1. If pages are being migrated from a memcg, then updates to that
         memcg page statistics are protected by grabbing PCG_MOVE_LOCK using
         move_lock_page_cgroup().  In an upcoming commit, memcg dirty page
         accounting will be updating memcg page accounting (specifically: num
         writeback pages) from IRQ context (softirq).  Avoid a deadlocking
         nested spin lock attempt by disabling irq on the local processor when
         grabbing the PCG_MOVE_LOCK.
      
      2. lock for update_page_stat is used only for avoiding race with
         move_account().  So, IRQ awareness of lock_page_cgroup() itself is not
         a problem.  The problem is between mem_cgroup_update_page_stat() and
         mem_cgroup_move_account_page().
      
      Trade-off:
        * Changing lock_page_cgroup() to always disable IRQ (or
          local_bh) has some impacts on performance and I think
          it's bad to disable IRQ when it's not necessary.
        * adding a new lock makes move_account() slower.  Score is
          here.
      
      Performance Impact: moving a 8G anon process.
      
      Before:
      	real    0m0.792s
      	user    0m0.000s
      	sys     0m0.780s
      
      After:
      	real    0m0.854s
      	user    0m0.000s
      	sys     0m0.842s
      
      This score is bad but planned patches for optimization can reduce
      this impact.

      memcg: add page_cgroup flags for dirty page tracking · db16d5ec
      Greg Thelen 提交于
      This patchset provides the ability for each cgroup to have independent
      dirty page limits.
      
      Limiting dirty memory is like fixing the max amount of dirty (hard to
      reclaim) page cache used by a cgroup.  So, in case of multiple cgroup
      writers, they will not be able to consume more than their designated share
      of dirty pages and will be forced to perform write-out if they cross that
      limit.
      
      The patches are based on a series proposed by Andrea Righi in Mar 2010.
      
      Overview:
      
      - Add page_cgroup flags to record when pages are dirty, in writeback, or nfs
        unstable.
      
      - Extend mem_cgroup to record the total number of pages in each of the
        interesting dirty states (dirty, writeback, unstable_nfs).
      
      - Add dirty parameters similar to the system-wide  /proc/sys/vm/dirty_*
        limits to mem_cgroup.  The mem_cgroup dirty parameters are accessible
        via cgroupfs control files.
      
      - Consider both system and per-memcg dirty limits in page writeback when
        deciding to queue background writeback or block for foreground writeback.
      
      Known shortcomings:
      
      - When a cgroup dirty limit is exceeded, then bdi writeback is employed to
        writeback dirty inodes.  Bdi writeback considers inodes from any cgroup, not
        just inodes contributing dirty pages to the cgroup exceeding its limit.
      
      - When memory.use_hierarchy is set, then dirty limits are disabled.  This is a
        implementation detail.  An enhanced implementation is needed to check the
        chain of parents to ensure that no dirty limit is exceeded.
      
      Performance data:
      - A page fault microbenchmark workload was used to measure performance, which
        can be called in read or write mode:
              f = open(foo. $cpu)
              truncate(f, 4096)
              alarm(60)
              while (1) {
                      p = mmap(f, 4096)
                      if (write)
      			*p = 1
      		else
      			x = *p
                      munmap(p)
              }
      
      - The workload was called for several points in the patch series in different
        modes:
        - s_read is a single threaded reader
        - s_write is a single threaded writer
        - p_read is a 16 thread reader, each operating on a different file
        - p_write is a 16 thread writer, each operating on a different file
      
      - Measurements were collected on a 16 core non-numa system using "perf stat
        --repeat 3".  The -a option was used for parallel (p_*) runs.
      
      - All numbers are page fault rate (M/sec).  Higher is better.
      
      - To compare the performance of a kernel without non-memcg compare the first and
        last rows, neither has memcg configured.  The first row does not include any
        of these memcg patches.
      
      - To compare the performance of using memcg dirty limits, compare the baseline
        (2nd row titled "w/ memcg") with the the code and memcg enabled (2nd to last
        row titled "all patches").

      mm: batch activate_page() to reduce lock contention · 744ed144
      Shaohua Li 提交于
      The zone->lru_lock is heavily contented in workload where activate_page()
      is frequently used.  We could do batch activate_page() to reduce the lock
      contention.  The batched pages will be added into zone list when the pool
      is full or page reclaim is trying to drain them.
      
      For example, in a 4 socket 64 CPU system, create a sparse file and 64
      processes, processes shared map to the file.  Each process read access the
      whole file and then exit.  The process exit will do unmap_vmas() and cause
      a lot of activate_page() call.  In such workload, we saw about 58% total
      time reduction with below patch.  Other workloads with a lot of
      activate_page also benefits a lot too.
      
      I tested some microbenchmarks:
      case-anon-cow-rand-mt		0.58%
      case-anon-cow-rand		-3.30%
      case-anon-cow-seq-mt		-0.51%
      case-anon-cow-seq		-5.68%
      case-anon-r-rand-mt		0.23%

      case-anon-w-rand-mt		-0.03%
      case-anon-w-rand		-0.50%
      case-anon-w-seq-mt		-1.08%
      case-anon-w-seq			-0.12%
      case-anon-wx-rand-mt		-5.02%
      case-anon-wx-seq-mt		-1.43%
      case-fork			1.65%
      case-fork-sleep			-0.07%
      case-fork-withmem		1.39%
      case-hugetlb			-0.59%
      case-lru-file-mmap-read-mt	-0.54%
      case-lru-file-mmap-read		0.61%
      case-lru-file-mmap-read-rand	-2.24%
      case-lru-file-readonce		-0.64%
      case-lru-file-readtwice		-11.69%
      case-lru-memcg			-1.35%
      case-mmap-pread-rand-mt		1.88%
      case-mmap-pread-rand		-15.26%
      case-mmap-pread-seq-mt		0.89%
      case-mmap-pread-seq		-69.72%
      case-mmap-xread-rand-mt		0.71%
      case-mmap-xread-seq-mt		0.38%
      
      The most significent are:
      case-lru-file-readtwice		-11.69%
      case-mmap-pread-rand		-15.26%
      case-mmap-pread-seq		-69.72%
      
      which use activate_page a lot.  others are basically variations because
      each run has slightly difference.

      mm: fix hugepage migration · fd4a4663
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      2.6.37 added an unmap_and_move_huge_page() for memory failure recovery,
      but its anon_vma handling was still based around the 2.6.35 conventions.
      Update it to use page_lock_anon_vma, get_anon_vma, page_unlock_anon_vma,
      drop_anon_vma in the same way as we're now changing unmap_and_move().
      
      I don't particularly like to propose this for stable when I've not seen
      its problems in practice nor tested the solution: but it's clearly out of
      synch at present.

      mm: fix migration hangs on anon_vma lock · 1ce82b69
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      Increased usage of page migration in mmotm reveals that the anon_vma
      locking in unmap_and_move() has been deficient since 2.6.36 (or even
      earlier).  Review at the time of f1819427
      ("mm: fix hang on anon_vma->root->lock") missed the issue here: the
      anon_vma to which we get a reference may already have been freed back to
      its slab (it is in use when we check page_mapped, but that can change),
      and so its anon_vma->root may be switched at any moment by reuse in
      anon_vma_prepare.
      
      Perhaps we could fix that with a get_anon_vma_unless_zero(), but let's
      not: just rely on page_lock_anon_vma() to do all the hard thinking for us,
      then we don't need any rcu read locking over here.
      
      In removing the rcu_unlock label: since PageAnon is a bit in
      page->mapping, it's impossible for a !page->mapping page to be anon; but
      insert VM_BUG_ON in case the implementation ever changes.

      brk: fix min_brk lower bound computation for COMPAT_BRK · 5520e894
      Jiri Kosina 提交于
      Even if CONFIG_COMPAT_BRK is set in the kernel configuration, it can still
      be overriden by randomize_va_space sysctl.
      
      If this is the case, the min_brk computation in sys_brk() implementation
      is wrong, as it solely takes into account COMPAT_BRK setting, assuming
      that brk start is not randomized.  But that might not be the case if
      randomize_va_space sysctl has been set to '2' at the time the binary has
      been loaded from disk.
      
      In such case, the check has to be done in a same way as in
      !CONFIG_COMPAT_BRK case.
      
      In addition to that, the check for the COMPAT_BRK case introduced back in
      a5b4592c ("brk: make sys_brk() honor COMPAT_BRK when computing lower
      bound") is slightly wrong -- the lower bound shouldn't be mm->end_code,
      but mm->end_data instead, as that's where the legacy applications expect
      brk section to start (i.e.  immediately after last global variable).

      mm: migration: use rcu_dereference_protected when dereferencing the radix tree slot during file page migration
      
      migrate_pages() -> unmap_and_move() only calls rcu_read_lock() for
      anonymous pages, as introduced by git commit
      989f89c5 ("fix rcu_read_lock() in page
      migraton").  The point of the RCU protection there is part of getting a
      stable reference to anon_vma and is only held for anon pages as file pages
      are locked which is sufficient protection against freeing.
      
      However, while a file page's mapping is being migrated, the radix tree is
      double checked to ensure it is the expected page.  This uses
      radix_tree_deref_slot() -> rcu_dereference() without the RCU lock held
      triggering the following warning.

      This patch introduces radix_tree_deref_slot_protected() which calls
      rcu_dereference_protected().  Users of it must pass in the
      mapping->tree_lock that is protecting this dereference.  Holding the tree
      lock protects against parallel updaters of the radix tree meaning that
      rcu_dereference_protected is allowable.

      thp: KSM on THP · 29ad768c
      Andrea Arcangeli 提交于
      This makes KSM full operational with THP pages.  Subpages are scanned
      while the hugepage is still in place and delivering max cpu performance,
      and only if there's a match and we're going to deduplicate memory, the
      single hugepages with the subpage match is split.
      
      There will be no false sharing between ksmd and khugepaged.  khugepaged
      won't collapse 2m virtual regions with KSM pages inside.  ksmd also should
      only split pages when the checksum matches and we're likely to split an
      hugepage for some long living ksm page (usual ksm heuristic to avoid
      sharing pages that get de-cowed).

      thp: khugepaged: make khugepaged aware about madvise · 60ab3244
      Andrea Arcangeli 提交于
      MADV_HUGEPAGE and MADV_NOHUGEPAGE were fully effective only if run after
      mmap and before touching the memory.  While this is enough for most
      usages, it's little effort to make madvise more dynamic at runtime on an
      existing mapping by making khugepaged aware about madvise.
      
      MADV_HUGEPAGE: register in khugepaged immediately without waiting a page
      fault (that may not ever happen if all pages are already mapped and the
      "enabled" knob was set to madvise during the initial page faults).
      
      MADV_NOHUGEPAGE: skip vmas marked VM_NOHUGEPAGE in khugepaged to stop
      collapsing pages where not needed.

      thp: fix memory-failure hugetlbfs vs THP collision · 91600e9e
      Andrea Arcangeli 提交于
      hugetlbfs was changed to allow memory failure to migrate the hugetlbfs
      pages and that broke THP as split_huge_page was then called on hugetlbfs
      pages too.
      
      compound_head/order was also run unsafe on THP pages that can be splitted
      at any time.
      
      All compound_head() invocations in memory-failure.c that are run on pages
      that aren't pinned and that can be freed and reused from under us (while
      compound_head is running) are buggy because compound_head can return a
      dangling pointer, but I'm not fixing this as this is a generic
      memory-failure bug not specific to THP but it applies to hugetlbfs too, so
      I can fix it later after THP is merged upstream.
