All the callers of vm_mmap seem to check for the failure already and bail out in one way or another on the error which means that we can change it to use killable version of vm_mmap_pgoff and return -EINTR if the current task gets killed while waiting for mmap_sem. This also means that vm_mmap_pgoff can be killable by default and drop the additional parameter. This will help in the OOM conditions when the oom victim might be stuck waiting for the mmap_sem for write which in turn can block oom_reaper which relies on the mmap_sem for read to make a forward progress and reclaim the address space of the victim. Please note that load_elf_binary is ignoring vm_mmap error for current->personality & MMAP_PAGE_ZERO case but that shouldn't be a problem because the address is not used anywhere and we never return to the userspace if we got killed.

This is a follow up work for oom_reaper [1]. As the async OOM killing depends on oom_sem for read we would really appreciate if a holder for write didn't stood in the way. This patchset is changing many of down_write calls to be killable to help those cases when the writer is blocked and waiting for readers to release the lock and so help __oom_reap_task to process the oom victim. Most of the patches are really trivial because the lock is help from a shallow syscall paths where we can return EINTR trivially and allow the current task to die (note that EINTR will never get to the userspace as the task has fatal signal pending). Others seem to be easy as well as the callers are already handling fatal errors and bail and return to userspace which should be sufficient to handle the failure gracefully. I am not familiar with all those code paths so a deeper review is really appreciated. As this work is touching more areas which are not directly connected I have tried to keep the CC list as small as possible and people who I believed would be familiar are CCed only to the specific patches (all should have received the cover though). This patchset is based on linux-next and it depends on down_write_killable for rw_semaphores which got merged into tip locking/rwsem branch and it is merged into this next tree. I guess it would be easiest to route these patches via mmotm because of the dependency on the tip tree but if respective maintainers prefer other way I have no objections. I haven't covered all the mmap_write(mm->mmap_sem) instances here $ git grep "down_write(.*\<mmap_sem\>)" next/master | wc -l 98 $ git grep "down_write(.*\<mmap_sem\>)" | wc -l 62 I have tried to cover those which should be relatively easy to review in this series because this alone should be a nice improvement. Other places can be changed on top.

It focuses on the trivial ones which are taking the lock early after entering the syscall and they are not changing state before. Therefore it is very easy to change them to use down_write_killable and immediately return with -EINTR. This will allow the waiter to pass away without blocking the mmap_sem which might be required to make a forward progress. E.g. the oom reaper will need the lock for reading to dismantle the OOM victim address space. The only tricky function in this patch is vm_mmap_pgoff which has many call sites via vm_mmap. To reduce the risk keep vm_mmap with the original non-killable semantic for now. vm_munmap callers do not bother checking the return value so open code it into the munmap syscall path for now for simplicity.

The concept here was a suggestion from Ingo. The implementation horrors are all mine. This allows get_user_pages(), get_user_pages_unlocked(), and get_user_pages_locked() to be called with or without the leading tsk/mm arguments. We will give a compile-time warning about the old style being __deprecated and we will also WARN_ON() if the non-remote version is used for a remote-style access. Doing this, folks will get nice warnings and will not break the build. This should be nice for -next and will hopefully let developers fix up their own code instead of maintainers needing to do it at merge time. The way we do this is hideous. It uses the __VA_ARGS__ macro functionality to call different functions based on the number of arguments passed to the macro. There's an additional hack to ensure that our EXPORT_SYMBOL() of the deprecated symbols doesn't trigger a warning. We should be able to remove this mess as soon as -rc1 hits in the release after this is merged.

Commit b7643757 ("procfs: mark thread stack correctly in proc/<pid>/maps") added [stack:TID] annotation to /proc/<pid>/maps. Finding the task of a stack VMA requires walking the entire thread list, turning this into quadratic behavior: a thousand threads means a thousand stacks, so the rendering of /proc/<pid>/maps needs to look at a million combinations. The cost is not in proportion to the usefulness as described in the patch. Drop the [stack:TID] annotation to make /proc/<pid>/maps (and /proc/<pid>/numa_maps) usable again for higher thread counts. The [stack] annotation inside /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/maps is retained, as identifying the stack VMA there is an O(1) operation. Siddesh said: "The end users needed a way to identify thread stacks programmatically and there wasn't a way to do that. I'm afraid I no longer remember (or have access to the resources that would aid my memory since I changed employers) the details of their requirement. However, I did do this on my own time because I thought it was an interesting project for me and nobody really gave any feedback then as to its utility, so as far as I am concerned you could roll back the main thread maps information since the information is available in the thread-specific files" Signed-off-by: NJohannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: "Kirill A.

kstrdup() is often used to duplicate strings where neither source neither destination will be ever modified. In such case we can just reuse the source instead of duplicating it. The problem is that we must be sure that the source is non-modifiable and its life-time is long enough. I suspect the good candidates for such strings are strings located in kernel .rodata section, they cannot be modifed because the section is read-only and their life-time is equal to kernel life-time. This small patchset proposes alternative version of kstrdup - kstrdup_const, which returns source string if it is located in .rodata otherwise it fallbacks to kstrdup. To verify if the source is in .rodata function checks if the address is between sentinels __start_rodata, __end_rodata. I guess it should work with all architectures. The main patch is accompanied by four patches constifying kstrdup for cases where situtation described above happens frequently. I have tested the patchset on mobile platform (exynos4210-trats) and it saves 3272 string allocations. Since minimal allocation is 32 or 64 bytes depending on Kconfig options the patchset saves respectively about 100KB or 200KB of memory. Stats from tested platform show that the main offender is sysfs: By caller: 2260 __kernfs_new_node 631 clk_register+0xc8/0x1b8 318 clk_register+0x34/0x1b8 51 kmem_cache_create 12 alloc_vfsmnt By string (with count >= 5): 883 power 876 subsystem 135 parameters 132 device 61 iommu_group ... This patch (of 5): Add an alternative version of kstrdup which returns pointer to constant char array. The function checks if input string is in persistent and read-only memory section, if yes it returns the input string, otherwise it fallbacks to kstrdup. kstrdup_const is accompanied by kfree_const performing conditional memory deallocation of the string.

Unfortunately we need to define this helper twice, in task_mmu.c and in task_nommu.c. perhaps it makes sense to add fs/proc/util.c and move at least pid_of_stack/task_of_stack there to avoid the code duplication. - Change show_map_vma() and show_numa_map() to use the new helper.

Commit 8456a648 changes the page structure so that the slab subsystem reuses the page->mapping field. The crash happens in the following way: * XFS allocates some memory from slab and issues a bio to read data into it. * the bio is sent to the loopback device. * lo_receive creates an actor and calls splice_direct_to_actor. * lo_splice_actor copies data to the target page. * lo_splice_actor calls flush_dcache_page because the page may be mapped by userspace. In that case we need to flush the kernel cache. * flush_dcache_page asks for the list of userspace mappings, however that page->mapping field is reused by the slab subsystem for a different purpose. This causes the crash. Note that other architectures without coherent caches (sparc, arm, mips) also call page_mapping from flush_dcache_page, so they may crash in the same way. This patch fixes this bug by testing if the page is a slab page in page_mapping and returning NULL if it is. The patch also fixes VM_BUG_ON(PageSlab(page)) that could happen in earlier kernels in the same scenario on architectures without cache coherence when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled - so it should be backported to stable kernels. In the old kernels, the function page_mapping is placed in include/linux/mm.h, so you should modify the patch accordingly when backporting it.

When I use several fast SSD to do swap, swapper_space.tree_lock is heavily contended. This makes each swap partition have one address_space to reduce the lock contention. There is an array of address_space for swap. The swap entry type is the index to the array. In my test with 3 SSD, this increases the swapout throughput 20%.

do_mmap_pgoff() rounds up the desired size to the next PAGE_SIZE multiple, however there was no equivalent code in mm_populate(), which caused issues. This could be fixed by introduced the same rounding in mm_populate(), however I think it's preferable to make do_mmap_pgoff() return populate as a size rather than as a boolean, so we don't have to duplicate the size rounding logic in mm_populate().

When creating new mappings using the MAP_POPULATE / MAP_LOCKED flags (or with MCL_FUTURE in effect), we want to populate the pages within the newly created vmas. This may take a while as we may have to read pages from disk, so ideally we want to do this outside of the write-locked mmap_sem region. This change introduces mm_populate(), which is used to defer populating such mappings until after the mmap_sem write lock has been released. This is implemented as a generalization of the former do_mlock_pages(), which accomplished the same task but was using during mlock() / mlockall().

Without this patch we can get (many) kmem trace events with call site at krealloc(). This happens because krealloc is calling __krealloc, which performs the allocation through kmalloc_track_caller. Since neither krealloc nor __krealloc are marked inline explicitly, the caller can be traced as being krealloc, which clearly is not the intended behavior. This patch allows to get the real caller of krealloc, by creating an always inlined function __do_krealloc, thus tracing the call site accurately.

Stack for a new thread is mapped by userspace code and passed via sys_clone. This memory is currently seen as anonymous in /proc/<pid>/maps, which makes it difficult to ascertain which mappings are being used for thread stacks. This patch uses the individual task stack pointers to determine which vmas are actually thread stacks. For a multithreaded program like the following: #include <pthread.h> void *thread_main(void *foo) { while(1); } int main() { pthread_t t; pthread_create(&t, NULL, thread_main, NULL); pthread_join(t, NULL); } proc/PID/maps looks like the following: 00400000-00401000 r-xp 00000000 fd:0a 3671804 /home/siddhesh/a.out 00600000-00601000 rw-p 00000000 fd:0a 3671804 /home/siddhesh/a.out 019ef000-01a10000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] 7f8a44491000-7f8a44492000 ---p 00000000 00:00 0 7f8a44492000-7f8a44c92000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7f8a44c92000-7f8a44e3d000 r-xp 00000000 fd:00 2097482 /lib64/libc-2.14.90.so 7f8a44e3d000-7f8a4503d000 ---p 001ab000 fd:00 2097482 /lib64/libc-2.14.90.so 7f8a4503d000-7f8a45041000 r--p 001ab000 fd:00 2097482 /lib64/libc-2.14.90.so 7f8a45041000-7f8a45043000 rw-p 001af000 fd:00 2097482 /lib64/libc-2.14.90.so 7f8a45043000-7f8a45048000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7f8a45048000-7f8a4505f000 r-xp 00000000 fd:00 2099938 /lib64/libpthread-2.14.90.so 7f8a4505f000-7f8a4525e000 ---p 00017000 fd:00 2099938 /lib64/libpthread-2.14.90.so 7f8a4525e000-7f8a4525f000 r--p 00016000 fd:00 2099938 /lib64/libpthread-2.14.90.so 7f8a4525f000-7f8a45260000 rw-p 00017000 fd:00 2099938 /lib64/libpthread-2.14.90.so 7f8a45260000-7f8a45264000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7f8a45264000-7f8a45286000 r-xp 00000000 fd:00 2097348 /lib64/ld-2.14.90.so 7f8a45457000-7f8a4545a000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7f8a45484000-7f8a45485000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7f8a45485000-7f8a45486000 r--p 00021000 fd:00 2097348 /lib64/ld-2.14.90.so 7f8a45486000-7f8a45487000 rw-p 00022000 fd:00 2097348 /lib64/ld-2.14.90.so 7f8a45487000-7f8a45488000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7fff6273b000-7fff6275c000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] 7fff627ff000-7fff62800000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] ffffffffff600000-ffffffffff601000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vsyscall] Here, one could guess that 7f8a44492000-7f8a44c92000 is a stack since the earlier vma that has no permissions (7f8a44e3d000-7f8a4503d000) but that is not always a reliable way to find out which vma is a thread stack. Also, /proc/PID/maps and /proc/PID/task/TID/maps has the same content. With this patch in place, /proc/PID/task/TID/maps are treated as 'maps as the task would see it' and hence, only the vma that that task uses as stack is marked as [stack].

When I was reading nommu code, I found that it handles the vma list/tree in an unusual way. IIUC, because there can be more than one identical/overrapped vmas in the list/tree, it sorts the tree more strictly and does a linear search on the tree. But it doesn't applied to the list (i.e. the list could be constructed in a different order than the tree so that we can't use the list when finding the first vma in that order). Since inserting/sorting a vma in the tree and link is done at the same time, we can easily construct both of them in the same order. And linear searching on the tree could be more costly than doing it on the list, it can be converted to use the list. Also, after the commit 297c5eee ("mm: make the vma list be doubly linked") made the list be doubly linked, there were a couple of code need to be fixed to construct the list properly. Patch 1/6 is a preparation. It maintains the list sorted same as the tree and construct doubly-linked list properly. Patch 2/6 is a simple optimization for the vma deletion. Patch 3/6 and 4/6 convert tree traversal to list traversal and the rest are simple fixes and cleanups. This patch: @vma added into @mm should be sorted by start addr, end addr and VMA struct addr in that order because we may get identical VMAs in the @mm. However this was true only for the rbtree, not for the list. This patch fixes this by remembering 'rb_prev' during the tree traversal like find_vma_prepare() does and linking the @vma via __vma_link_list(). After this patch, we can iterate the whole VMAs in correct order simply by using @mm->mmap list.
