      memcg: make memcg's file mapped consistent with global VM · d8046582
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 提交于
      In global VM, FILE_MAPPED is used but memcg uses MAPPED_FILE.  This makes
      grep difficult.  Replace memcg's MAPPED_FILE with FILE_MAPPED
      
      And in global VM, mapped shared memory is accounted into FILE_MAPPED.
      But memcg doesn't. fix it.
      Note:
        page_is_file_cache() just checks SwapBacked or not.
        So, we need to check PageAnon.

      SWAP_MLOCK mean "We marked the page as PG_MLOCK, please move it to
      unevictable-lru". So, following code is easy confusable.
      
              if (vma->vm_flags & VM_LOCKED) {
                      ret = SWAP_MLOCK;
                      goto out_unmap;
              }
      
      Plus, if the VMA doesn't have VM_LOCKED, We don't need to check
      the needed of calling mlock_vma_page().
      
      Also, add some commentary to try_to_unmap_one().

      ksm: rmap_walk to remove_migation_ptes · e9995ef9
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      A side-effect of making ksm pages swappable is that they have to be placed
      on the LRUs: which then exposes them to isolate_lru_page() and hence to
      page migration.
      
      Add rmap_walk() for remove_migration_ptes() to use: rmap_walk_anon() and
      rmap_walk_file() in rmap.c, but rmap_walk_ksm() in ksm.c.  Perhaps some
      consolidation with existing code is possible, but don't attempt that yet
      (try_to_unmap needs to handle nonlinears, but migration pte removal does
      not).
      
      rmap_walk() is sadly less general than it appears: rmap_walk_anon(), like
      remove_anon_migration_ptes() which it replaces, avoids calling
      page_lock_anon_vma(), because that includes a page_mapped() test which
      fails when all migration ptes are in place.  That was valid when NUMA page
      migration was introduced (holding mmap_sem provided the missing guarantee
      that anon_vma's slab had not already been destroyed), but I believe not
      valid in the memory hotremove case added since.
      
      For now do the same as before, and consider the best way to fix that
      unlikely race later on.  When fixed, we can probably use rmap_walk() on
      hwpoisoned ksm pages too: for now, they remain among hwpoison's various
      exceptions (its PageKsm test comes before the page is locked, but its
      page_lock_anon_vma fails safely if an anon gets upgraded).

      ksm: share anon page without allocating · 80e14822
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      When ksm pages were unswappable, it made no sense to include them in mem
      cgroup accounting; but now that they are swappable (although I see no
      strict logical connection) the principle of least surprise implies that
      they should be accounted (with the usual dissatisfaction, that a shared
      page is accounted to only one of the cgroups using it).
      
      This patch was intended to add mem cgroup accounting where necessary; but
      turned inside out, it now avoids allocating a ksm page, instead upgrading
      an anon page to ksm - which brings its existing mem cgroup accounting with
      it.  Thus mem cgroups don't appear in the patch at all.
      
      This upgrade from PageAnon to PageKsm takes place under page lock (via a
      somewhat hacky NULL kpage interface), and audit showed only one place
      which needed to cope with the race - page_referenced() is sometimes used
      without page lock, so page_lock_anon_vma() needs an ACCESS_ONCE() to be
      sure of getting anon_vma and flags together (no problem if the page goes
      ksm an instant after, the integrity of that anon_vma list is unaffected).

      ksm: hold anon_vma in rmap_item · db114b83
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      For full functionality, page_referenced_one() and try_to_unmap_one() need
      to know the vma: to pass vma down to arch-dependent flushes, or to observe
      VM_LOCKED or VM_EXEC.  But KSM keeps no record of vma: nor can it, since
      vmas get split and merged without its knowledge.
      
      Instead, note page's anon_vma in its rmap_item when adding to stable tree:
      all the vmas which might map that page are listed by its anon_vma.
      
      page_referenced_ksm() and try_to_unmap_ksm() then traverse the anon_vma,
      first to find the probable vma, that which matches rmap_item's mm; but if
      that is not enough to locate all instances, traverse again to try the
      others.  This catches those occasions when fork has duplicated a pte of a
      ksm page, but ksmd has not yet come around to assign it an rmap_item.
      
      But each rmap_item in the stable tree which refers to an anon_vma needs to
      take a reference to it.  Andrea's anon_vma design cleverly avoided a
      reference count (an anon_vma was free when its list of vmas was empty),
      but KSM now needs to add that.  Is a 32-bit count sufficient?  I believe
      so - the anon_vma is only free when both count is 0 and list is empty.

      ksm: let shared pages be swappable · 5ad64688
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      Initial implementation for swapping out KSM's shared pages: add
      page_referenced_ksm() and try_to_unmap_ksm(), which rmap.c calls when
      faced with a PageKsm page.
      
      Most of what's needed can be got from the rmap_items listed from the
      stable_node of the ksm page, without discovering the actual vma: so in
      this patch just fake up a struct vma for page_referenced_one() or
      try_to_unmap_one(), then refine that in the next patch.
      
      Add VM_NONLINEAR to ksm_madvise()'s list of exclusions: it has always been
      implicit there (being only set with VM_SHARED, already excluded), but
      let's make it explicit, to help justify the lack of nonlinear unmap.
      
      Rely on the page lock to protect against concurrent modifications to that
      page's node of the stable tree.
      
      The awkward part is not swapout but swapin: do_swap_page() and
      page_add_anon_rmap() now have to allow for new possibilities - perhaps a
      ksm page still in swapcache, perhaps a swapcache page associated with one
      location in one anon_vma now needed for another location or anon_vma.
      (And the vma might even be no longer VM_MERGEABLE when that happens.)
      
      ksm_might_need_to_copy() checks for that case, and supplies a duplicate
      page when necessary, simply leaving it to a subsequent pass of ksmd to
      rediscover the identity and merge them back into one ksm page.
      Disappointingly primitive: but the alternative would have to accumulate
      unswappable info about the swapped out ksm pages, limiting swappability.
      
      Remove page_add_ksm_rmap(): page_add_anon_rmap() now has to allow for the
      particular case it was handling, so just use it instead.

      mm: mlocking in try_to_unmap_one · 53f79acb
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      There's contorted mlock/munlock handling in try_to_unmap_anon() and
      try_to_unmap_file(), which we'd prefer not to repeat for KSM swapping.
      Simplify it by moving it all down into try_to_unmap_one().
      
      One thing is then lost, try_to_munlock()'s distinction between when no vma
      holds the page mlocked, and when a vma does mlock it, but we could not get
      mmap_sem to set the page flag.  But its only caller takes no interest in
      that distinction (and is better testing SWAP_MLOCK anyway), so let's keep
      the code simple and return SWAP_AGAIN for both cases.
      
      try_to_unmap_file()'s TTU_MUNLOCK nonlinear handling was particularly
      amusing: once unravelled, it turns out to have been choosing between two
      different ways of doing the same nothing.  Ah, no, one way was actually
      returning SWAP_FAIL when it meant to return SWAP_SUCCESS.

      mm: define PAGE_MAPPING_FLAGS · 3ca7b3c5
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      At present we define PageAnon(page) by the low PAGE_MAPPING_ANON bit set
      in page->mapping, with the higher bits a pointer to the anon_vma; and have
      defined PageKsm(page) as that with NULL anon_vma.
      
      But KSM swapping will need to store a pointer there: so in preparation for
      that, now define PAGE_MAPPING_FLAGS as the low two bits, including
      PAGE_MAPPING_KSM (always set along with PAGE_MAPPING_ANON, until some
      other use for the bit emerges).
      
      Declare page_rmapping(page) to return the pointer part of page->mapping,
      and page_anon_vma(page) to return the anon_vma pointer when that's what it
      is.  Use these in a few appropriate places: notably, unuse_vma() has been
      testing page->mapping, but is better to be testing page_anon_vma() (cases
      may be added in which flag bits are set without any pointer).

      swap_info: swap count continuations · 570a335b
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      Swap is duplicated (reference count incremented by one) whenever the same
      swap page is inserted into another mm (when forking finds a swap entry in
      place of a pte, or when reclaim unmaps a pte to insert the swap entry).
      
      swap_info_struct's vmalloc'ed swap_map is the array of these reference
      counts: but what happens when the unsigned short (or unsigned char since
      the preceding patch) is full? (and its high bit is kept for a cache flag)
      
      We then lose track of it, never freeing, leaving it in use until swapoff:
      at which point we _hope_ that a single pass will have found all instances,
      assume there are no more, and will lose user data if we're wrong.
      
      Swapping of KSM pages has not yet been enabled; but it is implemented,
      and makes it very easy for a user to overflow the maximum swap count:
      possible with ordinary process pages, but unlikely, even when pid_max
      has been raised from PID_MAX_DEFAULT.
      
      This patch implements swap count continuations: when the count overflows,
      a continuation page is allocated and linked to the original vmalloc'ed
      map page, and this used to hold the continuation counts for that entry
      and its neighbours.  These continuation pages are seldom referenced:
      the common paths all work on the original swap_map, only referring to
      a continuation page when the low "digit" of a count is incremented or
      decremented through SWAP_MAP_MAX.

      HWPOISON: The high level memory error handler in the VM v7 · 6a46079c
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      Add the high level memory handler that poisons pages
      that got corrupted by hardware (typically by a two bit flip in a DIMM
      or a cache) on the Linux level. The goal is to prevent everyone
      from accessing these pages in the future.
      
      This done at the VM level by marking a page hwpoisoned
      and doing the appropriate action based on the type of page
      it is.
      
      The code that does this is portable and lives in mm/memory-failure.c
      
      To quote the overview comment:
      
      High level machine check handler. Handles pages reported by the
      hardware as being corrupted usually due to a 2bit ECC memory or cache
      failure.
      
      This focuses on pages detected as corrupted in the background.
      When the current CPU tries to consume corruption the currently
      running process can just be killed directly instead. This implies
      that if the error cannot be handled for some reason it's safe to
      just ignore it because no corruption has been consumed yet. Instead
      when that happens another machine check will happen.
      
      Handles page cache pages in various states. The tricky part
      here is that we can access any page asynchronous to other VM
      users, because memory failures could happen anytime and anywhere,
      possibly violating some of their assumptions. This is why this code
      has to be extremely careful. Generally it tries to use normal locking
      rules, as in get the standard locks, even if that means the
      error handling takes potentially a long time.
      
      Some of the operations here are somewhat inefficient and have non
      linear algorithmic complexity, because the data structures have not
      been optimized for this case. This is in particular the case
      for the mapping from a vma to a process. Since this case is expected
      to be rare we hope we can get away with this.
      
      There are in principle two strategies to kill processes on poison:
      - just unmap the data and wait for an actual reference before
      killing
      - kill as soon as corruption is detected.
      Both have advantages and disadvantages and should be used
      in different situations. Right now both are implemented and can
      be switched with a new sysctl vm.memory_failure_early_kill
      The default is early kill.
      
      The patch does some rmap data structure walking on its own to collect
      processes to kill. This is unusual because normally all rmap data structure
      knowledge is in rmap.c only. I put it here for now to keep
      everything together and rmap knowledge has been seeping out anyways

      HWPOISON: Use bitmask/action code for try_to_unmap behaviour · 14fa31b8
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      try_to_unmap currently has multiple modi (migration, munlock, normal unmap)
      which are selected by magic flag variables. The logic is not very straight
      forward, because each of these flag change multiple behaviours (e.g.
      migration turns off aging, not only sets up migration ptes etc.)
      Also the different flags interact in magic ways.
      
      A later patch in this series adds another mode to try_to_unmap, so
      this becomes quickly unmanageable.
      
      Replace the different flags with a action code (migration, munlock, munmap)
      and some additional flags as modifiers (ignore mlock, ignore aging).
      This makes the logic more straight forward and allows easier extension
      to new behaviours. Change all the caller to declare what they want to
      do.
      
      This patch is supposed to be a nop in behaviour. If anyone can prove
      it is not that would be a bug.

      memcg: add file-based RSS accounting · d69b042f
      Balbir Singh 提交于
      Add file RSS tracking per memory cgroup
      
      We currently don't track file RSS, the RSS we report is actually anon RSS.
       All the file mapped pages, come in through the page cache and get
      accounted there.  This patch adds support for accounting file RSS pages.
      It should
      
      1. Help improve the metrics reported by the memory resource controller
      2. Will form the basis for a future shared memory accounting heuristic
         that has been proposed by Kamezawa.
      
      Unfortunately, we cannot rename the existing "rss" keyword used in
      memory.stat to "anon_rss".  We however, add "mapped_file" data and hope to
      educate the end user through documentation.

      memcg: avoid accounting special pages · 5b4e655e
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 提交于
      There are not-on-LRU pages which can be mapped and they are not worth to
      be accounted.  (becasue we can't shrink them and need dirty codes to
      handle specical case) We'd like to make use of usual objrmap/radix-tree's
      protcol and don't want to account out-of-vm's control pages.
      
      When special_mapping_fault() is called, page->mapping is tend to be NULL
      and it's charged as Anonymous page.  insert_page() also handles some
      special pages from drivers.
      
      This patch is for avoiding to account special pages.

      mlock: mlocked pages are unevictable · b291f000
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Make sure that mlocked pages also live on the unevictable LRU, so kswapd
      will not scan them over and over again.
      
      This is achieved through various strategies:
      
      1) add yet another page flag--PG_mlocked--to indicate that
         the page is locked for efficient testing in vmscan and,
         optionally, fault path.  This allows early culling of
         unevictable pages, preventing them from getting to
         page_referenced()/try_to_unmap().  Also allows separate
         accounting of mlock'd pages, as Nick's original patch
         did.
      
         Note:  Nick's original mlock patch used a PG_mlocked
         flag.  I had removed this in favor of the PG_unevictable
         flag + an mlock_count [new page struct member].  I
         restored the PG_mlocked flag to eliminate the new
         count field.
      
      2) add the mlock/unevictable infrastructure to mm/mlock.c,
         with internal APIs in mm/internal.h.  This is a rework
         of Nick's original patch to these files, taking into
         account that mlocked pages are now kept on unevictable
         LRU list.
      
      3) update vmscan.c:page_evictable() to check PageMlocked()
         and, if vma passed in, the vm_flags.  Note that the vma
         will only be passed in for new pages in the fault path;
         and then only if the "cull unevictable pages in fault
         path" patch is included.
      
      4) add try_to_unlock() to rmap.c to walk a page's rmap and
         ClearPageMlocked() if no other vmas have it mlocked.
         Reuses as much of try_to_unmap() as possible.  This
         effectively replaces the use of one of the lru list links
         as an mlock count.  If this mechanism let's pages in mlocked
         vmas leak through w/o PG_mlocked set [I don't know that it
         does], we should catch them later in try_to_unmap().  One
         hopes this will be rare, as it will be relatively expensive.

      anon_vma_prepare: properly lock even newly allocated entries · d9d332e0
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      The anon_vma code is very subtle, and we end up doing optimistic lookups
      of anon_vmas under RCU in page_lock_anon_vma() with no locking.  Other
      CPU's can also see the newly allocated entry immediately after we've
      exposed it by setting "vma->anon_vma" to the new value.
      
      We protect against the anon_vma being destroyed by having the SLAB
      marked as SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, so the RCU lookup can depend on the
      allocation not being destroyed - but it might still be free'd and
      re-allocated here to a new vma.
      
      As a result, we should not do the anon_vma list ops on a newly allocated
      vma without proper locking.

      mm: dirty page tracking race fix · 479db0bf
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      There is a race with dirty page accounting where a page may not properly
      be accounted for.
      
      clear_page_dirty_for_io() calls page_mkclean; then TestClearPageDirty.
      
      page_mkclean walks the rmaps for that page, and for each one it cleans and
      write protects the pte if it was dirty.  It uses page_check_address to
      find the pte.  That function has a shortcut to avoid the ptl if the pte is
      not present.  Unfortunately, the pte can be switched to not-present then
      back to present by other code while holding the page table lock -- this
      should not be a signal for page_mkclean to ignore that pte, because it may
      be dirty.
      
      For example, powerpc64's set_pte_at will clear a previously present pte
      before setting it to the desired value.  There may also be other code in
      core mm or in arch which do similar things.
      
      The consequence of the bug is loss of data integrity due to msync, and
      loss of dirty page accounting accuracy.  XIP's __xip_unmap could easily
      also be unreliable (depending on the exact XIP locking scheme), which can
      lead to data corruption.
      
      Fix this by having an option to always take ptl to check the pte in
      page_check_address.
      
      It's possible to retain this optimization for page_referenced and
      try_to_unmap.
