Create a new N: entry type in MAINTAINERS which performs a regex match against filenames; either those extracted from patch +++ or --- lines, or those specified on the command-line using the -f option. This provides the same benefits as using a K: regex option to match a set of filenames (see commit eb90d085 "get_maintainer: allow keywords to match filenames"), but without the disadvantage that "random" file content, such as comments, will ever match the regex. Hence, revert most of that commit.

This driver requests and remaps a memory region as configured in the device tree. It serves memory from this region via the genalloc API. It optionally enables the SRAM clock. Other drivers can retrieve the genalloc pool from a phandle pointing to this drivers' device node in the device tree. The allocation granularity is hard-coded to 32 bytes for now, to make the SRAM driver useful for the 6502 remoteproc driver. There is overhead for bigger SRAMs, where only a much coarser allocation granularity is needed: At 32 bytes minimum allocation size, a 256 KiB SRAM needs a 1 KiB bitmap to track allocations.

This patch adds three exported functions to lib/genalloc.c: devm_gen_pool_create, dev_get_gen_pool, and of_get_named_gen_pool. devm_gen_pool_create is a managed version of gen_pool_create that keeps track of the pool via devres and allows the management code to automatically destroy it after device removal. dev_get_gen_pool retrieves the gen_pool for a given device, if it was created with devm_gen_pool_create, using devres_find. of_get_named_gen_pool retrieves the gen_pool for a given device node and property name, where the property must contain a phandle pointing to a platform device node. The corresponding platform device is then fed into dev_get_gen_pool and the resulting gen_pool is returned.

So when we release a resource structure, we should check whether it is allocated by bootmem or not. But even if we know a resource structure is allocated by bootmem, we cannot release it since SLxB cannot treat it. So for reusing a resource structure, this patch remembers it by using bootmem_resource as follows: When releasing a resource structure by free_resource(), free_resource() checks whether the resource structure is allocated by bootmem or not. If it is allocated by bootmem, free_resource() adds it to bootmem_resource. If it is not allocated by bootmem, free_resource() release it by kfree(). And when getting a new resource structure by get_resource(), get_resource() checks whether bootmem_resource has released resource structures or not. If there is a released resource structure, get_resource() returns it. If there is not a releaed resource structure, get_resource() returns new resource structure allocated by kzalloc().

由 Mel Gorman 提交于
As pointed out by Andrew Morton, the swap-over-NFS writeback is not setting PageWriteback before it is queued for direct IO. While swap pages do not participate in BDI or process dirty accounting and the IO is synchronous, the writeback bit is still required and not setting it in this case was an oversight. swapoff depends on the page writeback to synchronoise all pending writes on a swap page before it is reused. Swapcache freeing and reuse depend on checking the PageWriteback under lock to ensure the page is safe to reuse. Direct IO handlers and the direct IO handler for NFS do not deal with PageWriteback as they are synchronous writes. In the case of NFS, it schedules pages (or a page in the case of swap) for IO and then waits synchronously for IO to complete in nfs_direct_write(). It is recognised that this is a slowdown from normal swap handling which is asynchronous and uses a completion handler. Shoving PageWriteback handling down into direct IO handlers looks like a bad fit to handle the swap case although it may have to be dealt with some day if swap is converted to use direct IO in general and bmap is finally done away with. At that point it will be necessary to refit asynchronous direct IO with completion handlers onto the swap subsystem. As swapcache currently depends on PageWriteback to protect against races, this patch sets PageWriteback under the page lock before queueing it for direct IO. It is cleared when the direct IO handler returns. IO errors are treated similarly to the direct-to-bio case except PageError is not set as in the case of swap-over-NFS, it is likely to be a transient error. It was asked what prevents such a page being reclaimed in parallel. With this patch applied, such a page will now be skipped (most of the time) or blocked until the writeback completes. Reclaim checks PageWriteback under the page lock before calling try_to_free_swap and the page lock should prevent the page being requeued for IO before it is freed. This and Jerome's related patch should considered for -stable as far back as 3.6 when swap-over-NFS was introduced.

Since commit 62c230bc ("mm: add support for a filesystem to activate swap files and use direct_IO for writing swap pages"), swap_writepage() calls direct_IO on swap files. However, in that case the page isn't redirtied if I/O fails, and is therefore handled afterwards as if it has been successfully written to the swap file, leading to memory corruption when the page is eventually swapped back in. This patch sets the page dirty when direct_IO() fails. It fixes a memory corruption that happened while using swap-over-NFS.

由 David Rientjes 提交于
A memcg may livelock when oom if the process that grabs the hierarchy's oom lock is never the first process with PF_EXITING set in the memcg's task iteration. The oom killer, both global and memcg, will defer if it finds an eligible process that is in the process of exiting and it is not being ptraced. The idea is to allow it to exit without using memory reserves before needlessly killing another process. This normally works fine except in the memcg case with a large number of threads attached to the oom memcg. In this case, the memcg oom killer only gets called for the process that grabs the hierarchy's oom lock; all others end up blocked on the memcg's oom waitqueue. Thus, if the process that grabs the hierarchy's oom lock is never the first PF_EXITING process in the memcg's task iteration, the oom killer is constantly deferred without anything making progress. The fix is to give PF_EXITING processes access to memory reserves so that we've marked them as oom killed without any iteration. This allows __mem_cgroup_try_charge() to succeed so that the process may exit. This makes the memcg oom killer exemption for TIF_MEMDIE tasks, now immediately granted for processes with pending SIGKILLs and those in the exit path, to be equivalent to what is done for the global oom killer.

We have to return an error regardless to number of pages in the mapping. #Original testcase: git@github.com:dmonakhov/xfstests.git MOUNT_OPTIONS="-b1024" ./check shared/305 Signed-off-by: NDmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@openvz.org> Reviewed-by: NJan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

When hot removing memory, a firmware_map_entry which has memory range of the memory is released by release_firmware_map_entry(). If the entry is allocated by bootmem, release_firmware_map_entry() adds the entry to map_entires_bootmem list when firmware_map_find_entry() finds the entry from map_entries list. But firmware_map_find_entry never find the entry sicne map_entires list does not have the entry. So the entry just leaks. Here are steps of leaking firmware_map_entry: firmware_map_remove() -> firmware_map_find_entry() Find released entry from map_entries list -> firmware_map_remove_entry() Delete the entry from map_entries list -> remove_sysfs_fw_map_entry() ... -> release_firmware_map_entry() -> firmware_map_find_entry() Find the entry from map_entries list but the entry has been deleted from map_entries list. So the entry is not added to map_entries_bootmem. Thus the entry leaks release_firmware_map_entry() should not call firmware_map_find_entry() since releaed entry has been deleted from map_entries list. So the patch delete firmware_map_find_entry() from releae_firmware_map_entry() Signed-off-by: NYasuaki Ishimatsu <isimatu.yasuaki@jp.fujitsu.com> Reviewed-by: NWanpeng Li <liwanp@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: NTang Chen <tangchen@cn.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: NToshi Kani <toshi.kani@hp.com> Cc: Wen Congyang <wency@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

In page reclaim, huge page is split. split_huge_page() adds tail pages to LRU list. Since we are reclaiming a huge page, it's better we reclaim all subpages of the huge page instead of just the head page. This patch adds split tail pages to shrink page list so the tail pages can be reclaimed soon. Before this patch, run a swap workload: thp_fault_alloc 3492 thp_fault_fallback 608 thp_collapse_alloc 6 thp_collapse_alloc_failed 0 thp_split 916 With this patch: thp_fault_alloc 4085 thp_fault_fallback 16 thp_collapse_alloc 90 thp_collapse_alloc_failed 0 thp_split 1272 fallback allocation is reduced a lot.

To prevent flooding the swap device with writebacks, frontswap backends need to count and limit the number of outstanding writebacks. The incrementing of the counter can be done before the call to __swap_writepage(). However, the caller must receive a notification when the writeback completes in order to decrement the counter. To achieve this functionality, this patch modifies __swap_writepage() to take the bio completion callback function as an argument. end_swap_bio_write(), the normal bio completion function, is also made non-static so that code doing the accounting can call it after the accounting is done. There should be no behavioural change to existing code.

swap_writepage() is currently where frontswap hooks into the swap write path to capture pages with the frontswap_store() function. However, if a frontswap backend wants to "resume" the writeback of a page to the swap device, it can't call swap_writepage() as the page will simply reenter the backend. This patch separates swap_writepage() into a top and bottom half, the bottom half named __swap_writepage() to allow a frontswap backend, like zswap, to resume writeback beyond the frontswap_store() hook. __add_to_swap_cache() is also made non-static so that the page for which writeback is to be resumed can be added to the swap cache.

Fix a corner case for MAP_FIXED when requested mapping length is larger than rlimit for virtual memory. In such case any overlapping mappings are unmapped before we check for the limit and return ENOMEM. The check is moved before the loop that unmaps overlapping parts of existing mappings. When we are about to hit the limit (currently mapped pages + len > limit) we scan for overlapping pages and check again accounting for them. This fixes situation when userspace program expects that the previous mappings are preserved after the mmap() syscall has returned with error. (POSIX clearly states that successfull mapping shall replace any previous mappings.) This corner case was found and can be tested with LTP testcase: testcases/open_posix_testsuite/conformance/interfaces/mmap/24-2.c In this case the mmap, which is clearly over current limit, unmaps dynamic libraries and the testcase segfaults right after returning into userspace. I've also looked at the second instance of the unmapping loop in the do_brk(). The do_brk() is called from brk() syscall and from vm_brk(). The brk() syscall checks for overlapping mappings and bails out when there are any (so it can't be triggered from the brk syscall). The vm_brk() is called only from binmft handlers so it shouldn't be triggered unless binmft handler created overlapping mappings.

With this patch userland applications that want to maintain the interactivity/memory allocation cost can use the pressure level notifications. The levels are defined like this: The "low" level means that the system is reclaiming memory for new allocations. Monitoring this reclaiming activity might be useful for maintaining cache level. Upon notification, the program (typically "Activity Manager") might analyze vmstat and act in advance (i.e. prematurely shutdown unimportant services). The "medium" level means that the system is experiencing medium memory pressure, the system might be making swap, paging out active file caches, etc. Upon this event applications may decide to further analyze vmstat/zoneinfo/memcg or internal memory usage statistics and free any resources that can be easily reconstructed or re-read from a disk. The "critical" level means that the system is actively thrashing, it is about to out of memory (OOM) or even the in-kernel OOM killer is on its way to trigger. Applications should do whatever they can to help the system. It might be too late to consult with vmstat or any other statistics, so it's advisable to take an immediate action. The events are propagated upward until the event is handled, i.e. the events are not pass-through. Here is what this means: for example you have three cgroups: A->B->C. Now you set up an event listener on cgroups A, B and C, and suppose group C experiences some pressure. In this situation, only group C will receive the notification, i.e. groups A and B will not receive it. This is done to avoid excessive "broadcasting" of messages, which disturbs the system and which is especially bad if we are low on memory or thrashing. So, organize the cgroups wisely, or propagate the events manually (or, ask us to implement the pass-through events, explaining why would you need them.) Performance wise, the memory pressure notifications feature itself is lightweight and does not require much of bookkeeping, in contrast to the rest of memcg features. Unfortunately, as of current memcg implementation, pages accounting is an inseparable part and cannot be turned off. The good news is that there are some efforts[1] to improve the situation; plus, implementing the same, fully API-compatible[2] interface for CONFIG_MEMCG=n case (e.g. embedded) is also a viable option, so it will not require any changes on the userland side.

__remove_pages() is only necessary for CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE. PowerPC pseries will return -EOPNOTSUPP if unsupported. Adding an #ifdef causes several other functions it depends on to also become unnecessary, which saves in .text when disabled (it's disabled in most defconfigs besides powerpc, including x86). remove_memory_block() becomes static since it is not referenced outside of drivers/base/memory.c.

Change __remove_pages() to call release_mem_region_adjustable(). This allows a requested memory range to be released from the iomem_resource table even if it does not match exactly to an resource entry but still fits into. The resource entries initialized at bootup usually cover the whole contiguous memory ranges and may not necessarily match with the size of memory hot-delete requests. If release_mem_region_adjustable() failed, __remove_pages() emits a warning message and continues to proceed as it was the case with release_mem_region(). release_mem_region(), which is defined to __release_region(), emits a warning message and returns no error since a void function.

Add release_mem_region_adjustable(), which releases a requested region from a currently busy memory resource. This interface adjusts the matched memory resource accordingly even if the requested region does not match exactly but still fits into. This new interface is intended for memory hot-delete. During bootup, memory resources are inserted from the boot descriptor table, such as EFI Memory Table and e820. Each memory resource entry usually covers the whole contigous memory range. Memory hot-delete request, on the other hand, may target to a particular range of memory resource, and its size can be much smaller than the whole contiguous memory. Since the existing release interfaces like __release_region() require a requested region to be exactly matched to a resource entry, they do not allow a partial resource to be released. This new interface is restrictive (i.e. release under certain conditions), which is consistent with other release interfaces, __release_region() and __release_resource(). Additional release conditions, such as an overlapping region to a resource entry, can be supported after they are confirmed as valid cases. There is no change to the existing interfaces since their restriction is valid for I/O resources.
