fix #29180329

CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL is used for debugging mainly,
for release kernel, it's better to diable it.
This patch disables both x86 and aarch64 for release
kernel.

This has a pretty large performance penalty for
will-it-scale:signal1_process when the process
number are large.

commit 037c8489ade669e0f09ad40d5b91e5e1159a14b1 upstream.

Add a zero key in order to standardize hardware that want a key of 0's to
be passed. Some platforms defaults to a zero-key with security enabled
rather than allow the OS to enable the security. The zero key would allow
us to manage those platform as well. This also adds a fix to secure erase
so it can use the zero key to do crypto erase. Some other security commands
already use zero keys. This introduces a standard zero-key to allow
unification of semantics cross nvdimm security commands.

commit 7d988097c546187ada602cc9bccd0f03d473eb8f upstream.

Add support for the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL "ovewrite" capability as
described by the Intel DSM spec v1.7. This will allow triggering of
overwrite on Intel NVDIMMs. The overwrite operation can take tens of
minutes. When the overwrite DSM is issued successfully, the NVDIMMs will
be unaccessible. The kernel will do backoff polling to detect when the
overwrite process is completed. According to the DSM spec v1.7, the 128G
NVDIMMs can take up to 15mins to perform overwrite and larger DIMMs will
take longer.

Given that overwrite puts the DIMM in an indeterminate state until it
completes introduce the NDD_SECURITY_OVERWRITE flag to prevent other
operations from executing when overwrite is happening. The
NDD_WORK_PENDING flag is added to denote that there is a device reference
on the nvdimm device for an async workqueue thread context.

bits to their own header.

These commands mutate physical data, but that manipulation is not cache
coherent. The requirement to flush and invalidate caches makes these
commands unsuitable to be called from userspace, so extra logic is added
to detect and block these commands from being submitted via the ioctl
command submission path.

Lastly, the commands may contain sensitive key material that should not
be dumped in a standard debug session. Update the nvdimm-command
payload-dump facility to move security command payloads behind a

commit aa09259109583b98b9d9e7ed0d8eb1b880d1eb97 upstream.

Updating the zone watermarks by any means, like min_free_kbytes,
water_mark_scale_factor etc, when ->watermark_boost is set will result in
higher low and high watermarks than the user asked.

Below are the steps to reproduce the problem on system setup of Android
kernel running on Snapdragon hardware.

1) Default settings of the system are as below:

   #cat /proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes = 5162
   #cat /proc/zoneinfo | grep -e boost -e low -e "high " -e min -e Node
	Node 0, zone   Normal
		min      797
		low      8340
		high     8539

2) Monitor the zone->watermark_boost(by adding a debug print in the
   kernel) and whenever it is greater than zero value, write the same
   value of min_free_kbytes obtained from step 1.

   #echo 5162 > /proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes

3) Then read the zone watermarks in the system while the
   ->watermark_boost is zero.  This should show the same values of
   watermarks as step 1 but shown a higher values than asked.

   #cat /proc/zoneinfo | grep -e boost -e low -e "high " -e min -e Node
	Node 0, zone   Normal
		min      797
		low      21148
		high     21347

These higher values are because of updating the zone watermarks using the
macro min_wmark_pages(zone) which also adds the zone->watermark_boost.

	#define min_wmark_pages(z) (z->_watermark[WMARK_MIN] +
					z->watermark_boost)

So the steps that lead to the issue are:

1) On the extfrag event, watermarks are boosted by storing the required
   value in ->watermark_boost.

2) User tries to update the zone watermarks level in the system through
   min_free_kbytes or watermark_scale_factor.

3) Later, when kswapd woke up, it resets the zone->watermark_boost to
   zero.

In step 2), we use the min_wmark_pages() macro to store the watermarks
in the zone structure thus the values are always offsetted by
->watermark_boost value. This can be avoided by resetting the
->watermark_boost to zero before it is used.

commit 14f69140ff9c92a0928547ceefb153a842e8492c upstream.

Commit 1c30844d2dfe ("mm: reclaim small amounts of memory when an
external fragmentation event occurs") adds a boost_watermark() function
which increases the min watermark in a zone by at least
pageblock_nr_pages or the number of pages in a page block.

On Arm64, with 64K pages and 512M huge pages, this is 8192 pages or
512M.  It does this regardless of the number of managed pages managed in
the zone or the likelihood of success.

This can put the zone immediately under water in terms of allocating
pages from the zone, and can cause a small machine to fail immediately
due to OoM.  Unlike set_recommended_min_free_kbytes(), which
substantially increases min_free_kbytes and is tied to THP,
boost_watermark() can be called even if THP is not active.

The problem is most likely to appear on architectures such as Arm64
where pageblock_nr_pages is very large.

It is desirable to run the kdump capture kernel in as small a space as
possible to avoid wasting memory.  In some architectures, such as Arm64,
there are restrictions on where the capture kernel can run, and
therefore, the space available.  A capture kernel running in 768M can
fail due to OoM immediately after boost_watermark() sets the min in zone
DMA32, where most of the memory is, to 512M.  It fails even though there
is over 500M of free memory.  With boost_watermark() suppressed, the
capture kernel can run successfully in 448M.

This patch limits boost_watermark() to boosting a zone's min watermark
only when there are enough pages that the boost will produce positive
results.  In this case that is estimated to be four times as many pages
as pageblock_nr_pages.

: There is no harm in marking it stable.  Clearly it does not happen very
: often but it's not impossible.  32-bit x86 is a lot less common now
: which would previously have been vulnerable to triggering this easily.
: ppc64 has a larger base page size but typically only has one zone.

The report is extensive:

  https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190807091858.2857-1-david@fromorbit.com/

and it's worth recording the most relevant parts (colorful language and
typos included).

	When running a simple, steady state 4kB file creation test to
	simulate extracting tarballs larger than memory full of small
	files into the filesystem, I noticed that once memory fills up
	the cache balance goes to hell.

	The workload is creating one dirty cached inode for every dirty
	page, both of which should require a single IO each to clean and
	reclaim, and creation of inodes is throttled by the rate at which
	dirty writeback runs at (via balance dirty pages). Hence the ingest
	rate of new cached inodes and page cache pages is identical and
	steady. As a result, memory reclaim should quickly find a steady
	balance between page cache and inode caches.

	The moment memory fills, the page cache is reclaimed at a much
	faster rate than the inode cache, and evidence suggests that
	the inode cache shrinker is not being called when large batches
	of pages are being reclaimed. In roughly the same time period
	that it takes to fill memory with 50% pages and 50% slab caches,
	memory reclaim reduces the page cache down to just dirty pages
	and slab caches fill the entirety of memory.

	The LRU is largely full of dirty pages, and we're getting spikes
	of random writeback from memory reclaim so it's all going to shit.
	Behaviour never recovers, the page cache remains pinned at just
	dirty pages, and nothing I could tune would make any difference.
	vfs_cache_pressure makes no difference - I would set it so high
	it should trim the entire inode caches in a single pass, yet it
	didn't do anything. It was clear from tracing and live telemetry
	that the shrinkers were pretty much not running except when
	there was absolutely no memory free at all, and then they did
	the minimum necessary to free memory to make progress.

	So I went looking at the code, trying to find places where pages
	got reclaimed and the shrinkers weren't called. There's only one
	- kswapd doing boosted reclaim as per commit 1c30844d2dfe ("mm:
	reclaim small amounts of memory when an external fragmentation
	event occurs").

The watermark boosting introduced by the commit is triggered in response
to an allocation "fragmentation event".  The boosting was not intended
to target THP specifically and triggers even if THP is disabled.
However, with Dave's perfectly reasonable workload, fragmentation events
can be very common given the ratio of slab to page cache allocations so
boosting remains active for long periods of time.

As high-order allocations might use compaction and compaction cannot
move slab pages the decision was made in the commit to special-case
kswapd when watermarks are boosted -- kswapd avoids reclaiming slab as
reclaiming slab does not directly help compaction.

As Dave notes, this decision means that slab can be artificially
protected for long periods of time and messes up the balance with slab
and page caches.

Removing the special casing can still indirectly help avoid
fragmentation by avoiding fragmentation-causing events due to slab
allocation as pages from a slab pageblock will have some slab objects
freed.  Furthermore, with the special casing, reclaim behaviour is
unpredictable as kswapd sometimes examines slab and sometimes does not
in a manner that is tricky to tune or analyse.

This patch removes the special casing.  The downside is that this is not
a universal performance win.  Some benchmarks that depend on the
residency of data when rereading metadata may see a regression when slab
reclaim is restored to its original behaviour.  Similarly, some
benchmarks that only read-once or write-once may perform better when
page reclaim is too aggressive.  The primary upside is that slab
shrinker is less surprising (arguably more sane but that's a matter of
opinion), behaves consistently regardless of the fragmentation state of
the system and properly obeys VM sysctls.

A fsmark benchmark configuration was constructed similar to what Dave
reported and is codified by the mmtest configuration
config-io-fsmark-small-file-stream.  It was evaluated on a 1-socket
machine to avoid dealing with NUMA-related issues and the timing of
reclaim.  The storage was an SSD Samsung Evo and a fresh trimmed XFS
filesystem was used for the test data.

This is not an exact replication of Dave's setup.  The configuration
scales its parameters depending on the memory size of the SUT to behave
similarly across machines.  The parameters mean the first sample
reported by fs_mark is using 50% of RAM which will barely be throttled
and look like a big outlier.  Dave used fake NUMA to have multiple
kswapd instances which I didn't replicate.  Finally, the number of
iterations differ from Dave's test as the target disk was not large
enough.  While not identical, it should be representative.

This is showing a slight skew for the max result representing a large
outlier for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd quartile are similar indicating that
the bulk of the results show little difference.  Note that an earlier
version of the fsmark configuration showed a regression but that
included more samples taken while memory was still filling.

Note that the elapsed time is higher.  Part of this is that the
configuration included time to delete all the test files when the test
completes -- the test automation handles the possibility of testing
fsmark with multiple thread counts.  Without the patch, many of these
objects would be memory resident which is part of what the patch is
addressing.

There are other important observations that justify the patch.

1. With the vanilla kernel, the number of dirty pages in the system is
   very low for much of the test. With this patch, dirty pages is
   generally kept at 10% which matches vm.dirty_background_ratio which
   is normal expected historical behaviour.

2. With the vanilla kernel, the ratio of Slab/Pagecache is close to
   0.95 for much of the test i.e. Slab is being left alone and
   dominating memory consumption. With the patch applied, the ratio
   varies between 0.35 and 0.45 with the bulk of the measured ratios
   roughly half way between those values. This is a different balance to
   what Dave reported but it was at least consistent.

3. Slabs are scanned throughout the entire test with the patch applied.
   The vanille kernel has periods with no scan activity and then
   relatively massive spikes.

4. Without the patch, kswapd scan rates are very variable. With the
   patch, the scan rates remain quite steady.

4. Overall vmstats are closer to normal expectations

	o Vanilla kernel is hitting direct reclaim more frequently,
	  not very much in absolute terms but the fact the patch
	  reduces it is interesting
	o "Page reclaim immediate" in the vanilla kernel indicates
	  dirty pages are being encountered at the tail of the LRU.
	  This is generally bad and means in this case that the LRU
	  is not long enough for dirty pages to be cleaned by the
	  background flush in time. This is much reduced by the
	  patch.
	o With the patch, kswapd is reclaiming 10 times more slab
	  pages than with the vanilla kernel. This is indicative
	  of the watermark boosting over-protecting slab

A more complete set of tests were run that were part of the basis for
introducing boosting and while there are some differences, they are well
within tolerances.

Bottom line, the special casing kswapd to avoid slab behaviour is
unpredictable and can lead to abnormal results for normal workloads.

This patch restores the expected behaviour that slab and page cache is
balanced consistently for a workload with a steady allocation ratio of
slab/pagecache pages.  It also means that if there are workloads that
favour the preservation of slab over pagecache that it can be tuned via
vm.vfs_cache_pressure where as the vanilla kernel effectively ignores
the parameter when boosting is active.

commit 24512228b7a3f412b5a51f189df302616b021c33 upstream.

Mikulas Patocka reported that commit 1c30844d2dfe ("mm: reclaim small
amounts of memory when an external fragmentation event occurs") "broke"
memory management on parisc.

The machine is not NUMA but the DISCONTIG model creates three pgdats
even though it's a UMA machine for the following ranges

        0) Start 0x0000000000000000 End 0x000000003fffffff Size   1024 MB
        1) Start 0x0000000100000000 End 0x00000001bfdfffff Size   3070 MB
        2) Start 0x0000004040000000 End 0x00000040ffffffff Size   3072 MB

Mikulas reported:

	With the patch 1c30844d2, the kernel will incorrectly reclaim the
	first zone when it fills up, ignoring the fact that there are two
	completely free zones. Basiscally, it limits cache size to 1GiB.

	For example, if I run:
	# dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null bs=1M count=2048

	- with the proper kernel, there should be "Buffers - 2GiB"
	when this command finishes. With the patch 1c30844d2, buffers
	will consume just 1GiB or slightly more, because the kernel was
	incorrectly reclaiming them.

The page allocator and reclaim makes assumptions that pgdats really
represent NUMA nodes and zones represent ranges and makes decisions on
that basis.  Watermark boosting for small pgdats leads to unexpected
results even though this would have behaved reasonably on SPARSEMEM.

DISCONTIG is essentially deprecated and even parisc plans to move to
SPARSEMEM so there is no need to be fancy, this patch simply disables
watermark boosting by default on DISCONTIGMEM.

It appears to be a false positive in that the only way the lock ordering
should be inverted is if kswapd is waking itself and the wakeup
allocates debugging objects which should already be allocated if it's
kswapd doing the waking.  Nevertheless, the possibility exists and so
it's best to avoid the problem.

This patch flags a zone as needing a kswapd using the, surprisingly,
unused zone flag field.  The flag is read without the lock held to do
the wakeup.  It's possible that the flag setting context is not the same
as the flag clearing context or for small races to occur.  However, each
race possibility is harmless and there is no visible degredation in
fragmentation treatment.

While zone->flag could have continued to be unused, there is potential
for moving some existing fields into the flags field instead.
Particularly read-mostly ones like zone->initialized and
zone->contiguous.

commit 1c30844d2dfe272d58c8fc000960b835d13aa2ac upstream.

An external fragmentation event was previously described as

    When the page allocator fragments memory, it records the event using
    the mm_page_alloc_extfrag event. If the fallback_order is smaller
    than a pageblock order (order-9 on 64-bit x86) then it's considered
    an event that will cause external fragmentation issues in the future.

The kernel reduces the probability of such events by increasing the
watermark sizes by calling set_recommended_min_free_kbytes early in the
lifetime of the system.  This works reasonably well in general but if
there are enough sparsely populated pageblocks then the problem can still
occur as enough memory is free overall and kswapd stays asleep.

This patch introduces a watermark_boost_factor sysctl that allows a zone
watermark to be temporarily boosted when an external fragmentation causing
events occurs.  The boosting will stall allocations that would decrease
free memory below the boosted low watermark and kswapd is woken if the
calling context allows to reclaim an amount of memory relative to the size
of the high watermark and the watermark_boost_factor until the boost is
cleared.  When kswapd finishes, it wakes kcompactd at the pageblock order
to clean some of the pageblocks that may have been affected by the
fragmentation event.  kswapd avoids any writeback, slab shrinkage and swap
from reclaim context during this operation to avoid excessive system
disruption in the name of fragmentation avoidance.  Care is taken so that
kswapd will do normal reclaim work if the system is really low on memory.

This was evaluated using the same workloads as "mm, page_alloc: Spread
allocations across zones before introducing fragmentation".

Note that external fragmentation causing events are massively reduced by
this path whether in comparison to the previous kernel or the vanilla
kernel.  The fault latency for huge pages appears to be increased but that
is only because THP allocations were successful with the patch applied.

There is a large reduction in fragmentation events with some jitter around
the latencies and success rates.  As before, the high THP allocation
success rate does mean the system is under a lot of pressure.  However, as
the fragmentation events are reduced, it would be expected that the
long-term allocation success rate would be higher.

This is a preparation patch that copies the GFP flag __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM
into alloc_flags.  This is a preparation patch only that avoids having to
pass gfp_mask through a long callchain in a future patch.

Note that the setting in the fast path happens in alloc_flags_nofragment()
and it may be claimed that this has nothing to do with ALLOC_NO_FRAGMENT.
That's true in this patch but is not true later so it's done now for
easier review to show where the flag needs to be recorded.

No functional change.

commit 6bb154504f8b496780ec53ec81aba957a12981fa upstream.

Patch series "Fragmentation avoidance improvements", v5.

It has been noted before that fragmentation avoidance (aka
anti-fragmentation) is not perfect. Given sufficient time or an adverse
workload, memory gets fragmented and the long-term success of high-order
allocations degrades. This series defines an adverse workload, a definition
of external fragmentation events (including serious) ones and a series
that reduces the level of those fragmentation events.

The details of the workload and the consequences are described in more
detail in the changelogs. However, from patch 1, this is a high-level
summary of the adverse workload. The exact details are found in the
mmtests implementation.

The broad details of the workload are as follows;

1. Create an XFS filesystem (not specified in the configuration but done
   as part of the testing for this patch)
2. Start 4 fio threads that write a number of 64K files inefficiently.
   Inefficiently means that files are created on first access and not
   created in advance (fio parameterr create_on_open=1) and fallocate
   is not used (fallocate=none). With multiple IO issuers this creates
   a mix of slab and page cache allocations over time. The total size
   of the files is 150% physical memory so that the slabs and page cache
   pages get mixed
3. Warm up a number of fio read-only threads accessing the same files
   created in step 2. This part runs for the same length of time it
   took to create the files. It'll fault back in old data and further
   interleave slab and page cache allocations. As it's now low on
   memory due to step 2, fragmentation occurs as pageblocks get
   stolen.
4. While step 3 is still running, start a process that tries to allocate
   75% of memory as huge pages with a number of threads. The number of
   threads is based on a (NR_CPUS_SOCKET - NR_FIO_THREADS)/4 to avoid THP
   threads contending with fio, any other threads or forcing cross-NUMA
   scheduling. Note that the test has not been used on a machine with less
   than 8 cores. The benchmark records whether huge pages were allocated
   and what the fault latency was in microseconds
5. Measure the number of events potentially causing external fragmentation,
   the fault latency and the huge page allocation success rate.
6. Cleanup

Overall the series reduces external fragmentation causing events by over 94%
on 1 and 2 socket machines, which in turn impacts high-order allocation
success rates over the long term. There are differences in latencies and
high-order allocation success rates. Latencies are a mixed bag as they
are vulnerable to exact system state and whether allocations succeeded
so they are treated as a secondary metric.

Patch 1 uses lower zones if they are populated and have free memory
	instead of fragmenting a higher zone. It's special cased to
	handle a Normal->DMA32 fallback with the reasons explained
	in the changelog.

Patch 2-4 boosts watermarks temporarily when an external fragmentation
	event occurs. kswapd wakes to reclaim a small amount of old memory
	and then wakes kcompactd on completion to recover the system
	slightly. This introduces some overhead in the slowpath. The level
	of boosting can be tuned or disabled depending on the tolerance
	for fragmentation vs allocation latency.

Patch 5 stalls some movable allocation requests to let kswapd from patch 4
	make some progress. The duration of the stalls is very low but it
	is possible to tune the system to avoid fragmentation events if
	larger stalls can be tolerated.

The bulk of the improvement in fragmentation avoidance is from patches
1-4 but patch 5 can deal with a rare corner case and provides the option
of tuning a system for THP allocation success rates in exchange for
some stalls to control fragmentation.

This patch (of 5):

The page allocator zone lists are iterated based on the watermarks of each
zone which does not take anti-fragmentation into account.  On x86, node 0
may have multiple zones while other nodes have one zone.  A consequence is
that tasks running on node 0 may fragment ZONE_NORMAL even though
ZONE_DMA32 has plenty of free memory.  This patch special cases the
allocator fast path such that it'll try an allocation from a lower local
zone before fragmenting a higher zone.  In this case, stealing of
pageblocks or orders larger than a pageblock are still allowed in the fast
path as they are uninteresting from a fragmentation point of view.

This was evaluated using a benchmark designed to fragment memory before
attempting THP allocations.  It's implemented in mmtests as the following
configurations

configs/config-global-dhp__workload_thpfioscale
configs/config-global-dhp__workload_thpfioscale-defrag
configs/config-global-dhp__workload_thpfioscale-madvhugepage

e.g. from mmtests
./run-mmtests.sh --run-monitor --config configs/config-global-dhp__workload_thpfioscale test-run-1

The broad details of the workload are as follows;

1. Create an XFS filesystem (not specified in the configuration but done
   as part of the testing for this patch).
2. Start 4 fio threads that write a number of 64K files inefficiently.
   Inefficiently means that files are created on first access and not
   created in advance (fio parameter create_on_open=1) and fallocate
   is not used (fallocate=none). With multiple IO issuers this creates
   a mix of slab and page cache allocations over time. The total size
   of the files is 150% physical memory so that the slabs and page cache
   pages get mixed.
3. Warm up a number of fio read-only processes accessing the same files
   created in step 2. This part runs for the same length of time it
   took to create the files. It'll refault old data and further
   interleave slab and page cache allocations. As it's now low on
   memory due to step 2, fragmentation occurs as pageblocks get
   stolen.
4. While step 3 is still running, start a process that tries to allocate
   75% of memory as huge pages with a number of threads. The number of
   threads is based on a (NR_CPUS_SOCKET - NR_FIO_THREADS)/4 to avoid THP
   threads contending with fio, any other threads or forcing cross-NUMA
   scheduling. Note that the test has not been used on a machine with less
   than 8 cores. The benchmark records whether huge pages were allocated
   and what the fault latency was in microseconds.
5. Measure the number of events potentially causing external fragmentation,
   the fault latency and the huge page allocation success rate.
6. Cleanup the test files.

Note that due to the use of IO and page cache that this benchmark is not
suitable for running on large machines where the time to fragment memory
may be excessive.  Also note that while this is one mix that generates
fragmentation that it's not the only mix that generates fragmentation.
Differences in workload that are more slab-intensive or whether SLUB is
used with high-order pages may yield different results.

When the page allocator fragments memory, it records the event using the
mm_page_alloc_extfrag ftrace event.  If the fallback_order is smaller than
a pageblock order (order-9 on 64-bit x86) then it's considered to be an
"external fragmentation event" that may cause issues in the future.
Hence, the primary metric here is the number of external fragmentation
events that occur with order < 9.  The secondary metric is allocation
latency and huge page allocation success rates but note that differences
in latencies and what the success rate also can affect the number of
external fragmentation event which is why it's a secondary metric.

Fault latencies are slightly reduced while allocation success rates remain
at zero as this configuration does not make any special effort to allocate
THP and fio is heavily active at the time and either filling memory or
keeping pages resident.  However, a 49% reduction of serious fragmentation
events reduces the changes of external fragmentation being a problem in
the future.

Vlastimil asked during review for a breakdown of the allocation types
that are falling back.

vanilla
   3816 MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE
 800845 MIGRATE_MOVABLE
     33 MIGRATE_UNRECLAIMABLE

patch
    735 MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE
 408135 MIGRATE_MOVABLE
     42 MIGRATE_UNRECLAIMABLE

The majority of the fallbacks are due to movable allocations and this is
consistent for the workload throughout the series so will not be presented
again as the primary source of fallbacks are movable allocations.

Movable fallbacks are sometimes considered "ok" to fallback because they
can be migrated.  The problem is that they can fill an
unmovable/reclaimable pageblock causing those allocations to fallback
later and polluting pageblocks with pages that cannot move.  If there is a
movable fallback, it is pretty much guaranteed to affect an
unmovable/reclaimable pageblock and while it might not be enough to
actually cause a unmovable/reclaimable fallback in the future, we cannot
know that in advance so the patch takes the only option available to it.
Hence, it's important to control them.  This point is also consistent
throughout the series and will not be repeated.

The reduction of external fragmentation events is slight and this is
partially due to the removal of __GFP_THISNODE in commit ac5b2c18911f
("mm: thp: relax __GFP_THISNODE for MADV_HUGEPAGE mappings") as THP
allocations can now spill over to remote nodes instead of fragmenting
local memory.

There was a slight reduction in external fragmentation events although the
latencies were higher.  The allocation success rate is high enough that
the system is struggling and there is quite a lot of parallel reclaim and
compaction activity.  There is also a certain degree of luck on whether
processes start on node 0 or not for this patch but the relevance is
reduced later in the series.

Overall, the patch reduces the number of external fragmentation causing
events so the success of THP over long periods of time would be improved
for this adverse workload.

commit 5c72feee3e45b40a3c96c7145ec422899d0e8964 upstream.

When handling a page fault, we drop mmap_sem to start async readahead so
that we don't block on IO submission with mmap_sem held.  However there's
no point to drop mmap_sem in case readahead is disabled.  Handle that case
to avoid pointless dropping of mmap_sem and retrying the fault.  This was
actually reported to block mlockall(MCL_CURRENT) indefinitely.

commit 7a30df49f63ad92318ddf1f7498d1129a77dd4bd upstream.

A few new fields were added to mmu_gather to make TLB flush smarter for
huge page by telling what level of page table is changed.

__tlb_reset_range() is used to reset all these page table state to
unchanged, which is called by TLB flush for parallel mapping changes for
the same range under non-exclusive lock (i.e.  read mmap_sem).

Before commit dd2283f2605e ("mm: mmap: zap pages with read mmap_sem in
munmap"), the syscalls (e.g.  MADV_DONTNEED, MADV_FREE) which may update
PTEs in parallel don't remove page tables.  But, the forementioned
commit may do munmap() under read mmap_sem and free page tables.  This
may result in program hang on aarch64 reported by Jan Stancek.  The
problem could be reproduced by his test program with slightly modified
below.

---8<---

static int map_size = 4096;
static int num_iter = 500;
static long threads_total;

static void *distant_area;

void *map_write_unmap(void *ptr)
{
	int *fd = ptr;
	unsigned char *map_address;
	int i, j = 0;

	for (i = 0; i < num_iter; i++) {
		map_address = mmap(distant_area, (size_t) map_size, PROT_WRITE | PROT_READ,
			MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
		if (map_address == MAP_FAILED) {
			perror("mmap");
			exit(1);
		}

		for (j = 0; j < map_size; j++)
			map_address[j] = 'b';

		if (munmap(map_address, map_size) == -1) {
			perror("munmap");
			exit(1);
		}
	}

	return NULL;
}

void *dummy(void *ptr)
{
	return NULL;
}

int main(void)
{
	pthread_t thid[2];

	/* hint for mmap in map_write_unmap() */
	distant_area = mmap(0, DISTANT_MMAP_SIZE, PROT_WRITE | PROT_READ,
			MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0);
	munmap(distant_area, (size_t)DISTANT_MMAP_SIZE);
	distant_area += DISTANT_MMAP_SIZE / 2;

	while (1) {
		pthread_create(&thid[0], NULL, map_write_unmap, NULL);
		pthread_create(&thid[1], NULL, dummy, NULL);

		pthread_join(thid[0], NULL);
		pthread_join(thid[1], NULL);
	}
}

The program may bring in parallel execution like below:

        t1                                        t2
munmap(map_address)
  downgrade_write(&mm->mmap_sem);
  unmap_region()
  tlb_gather_mmu()
    inc_tlb_flush_pending(tlb->mm);
  free_pgtables()
    tlb->freed_tables = 1
    tlb->cleared_pmds = 1

                                        pthread_exit()
                                        madvise(thread_stack, 8M, MADV_DONTNEED)
                                          zap_page_range()
                                            tlb_gather_mmu()
                                              inc_tlb_flush_pending(tlb->mm);

  tlb_finish_mmu()
    if (mm_tlb_flush_nested(tlb->mm))
      __tlb_reset_range()

__tlb_reset_range() would reset freed_tables and cleared_* bits, but this
may cause inconsistency for munmap() which do free page tables.  Then it
may result in some architectures, e.g.  aarch64, may not flush TLB
completely as expected to have stale TLB entries remained.

Use fullmm flush since it yields much better performance on aarch64 and
non-fullmm doesn't yields significant difference on x86.

The original proposed fix came from Jan Stancek who mainly debugged this
issue, I just wrapped up everything together.

commit 6b4c9f4469819a0c1a38a0a4541337e0f9bf6c11 upstream.

Currently we only drop the mmap_sem if there is contention on the page
lock.  The idea is that we issue readahead and then go to lock the page
while it is under IO and we want to not hold the mmap_sem during the IO.

The problem with this is the assumption that the readahead does anything.
In the case that the box is under extreme memory or IO pressure we may end
up not reading anything at all for readahead, which means we will end up
reading in the page under the mmap_sem.

Even if the readahead does something, it could get throttled because of io
pressure on the system and the process is in a lower priority cgroup.

Holding the mmap_sem while doing IO is problematic because it can cause
system-wide priority inversions.  Consider some large company that does a
lot of web traffic.  This large company has load balancing logic in it's
core web server, cause some engineer thought this was a brilliant plan.
This load balancing logic gets statistics from /proc about the system,
which trip over processes mmap_sem for various reasons.  Now the web
server application is in a protected cgroup, but these other processes may
not be, and if they are being throttled while their mmap_sem is held we'll
stall, and cause this nice death spiral.

Instead rework filemap fault path to drop the mmap sem at any point that
we may do IO or block for an extended period of time.  This includes while
issuing readahead, locking the page, or needing to call ->readpage because
readahead did not occur.  Then once we have a fully uptodate page we can
return with VM_FAULT_RETRY and come back again to find our nicely in-cache
page that was gotten outside of the mmap_sem.

This patch also adds a new helper for locking the page with the mmap_sem
dropped.  This doesn't make sense currently as generally speaking if the
page is already locked it'll have been read in (unless there was an error)
before it was unlocked.  However a forthcoming patchset will change this
with the ability to abort read-ahead bio's if necessary, making it more
likely that we could contend for a page lock and still have a not uptodate
page.  This allows us to deal with this case by grabbing the lock and
issuing the IO without the mmap_sem held, and then returning
VM_FAULT_RETRY to come back around.

commit a75d4c33377277b6034dd1e2663bce444f952c14 upstream.

Patch series "drop the mmap_sem when doing IO in the fault path", v6.

Now that we have proper isolation in place with cgroups2 we have started
going through and fixing the various priority inversions.  Most are all
gone now, but this one is sort of weird since it's not necessarily a
priority inversion that happens within the kernel, but rather because of
something userspace does.

We have giant applications that we want to protect, and parts of these
giant applications do things like watch the system state to determine how
healthy the box is for load balancing and such.  This involves running
'ps' or other such utilities.  These utilities will often walk
/proc/<pid>/whatever, and these files can sometimes need to
down_read(&task->mmap_sem).  Not usually a big deal, but we noticed when
we are stress testing that sometimes our protected application has latency
spikes trying to get the mmap_sem for tasks that are in lower priority
cgroups.

This is because any down_write() on a semaphore essentially turns it into
a mutex, so even if we currently have it held for reading, any new readers
will not be allowed on to keep from starving the writer.  This is fine,
except a lower priority task could be stuck doing IO because it has been
throttled to the point that its IO is taking much longer than normal.  But
because a higher priority group depends on this completing it is now stuck
behind lower priority work.

In order to avoid this particular priority inversion we want to use the
existing retry mechanism to stop from holding the mmap_sem at all if we
are going to do IO.  This already exists in the read case sort of, but
needed to be extended for more than just grabbing the page lock.  With
io.latency we throttle at submit_bio() time, so the readahead stuff can
block and even page_cache_read can block, so all these paths need to have
the mmap_sem dropped.

The other big thing is ->page_mkwrite.  btrfs is particularly shitty here
because we have to reserve space for the dirty page, which can be a very
expensive operation.  We use the same retry method as the read path, and
simply cache the page and verify the page is still setup properly the next
pass through ->page_mkwrite().

I've tested these patches with xfstests and there are no regressions.

This patch (of 3):

If we do not have a page at filemap_fault time we'll do this weird forced
page_cache_read thing to populate the page, and then drop it again and
loop around and find it.  This makes for 2 ways we can read a page in
filemap_fault, and it's not really needed.  Instead add a FGP_FOR_MMAP
flag so that pagecache_get_page() will return a unlocked page that's in
pagecache.  Then use the normal page locking and readpage logic already in
filemap_fault.  This simplifies the no page in page cache case
significantly.
