shmem mappings already contain exceptional entries where swap slot information is remembered. To be able to store eviction information for regular page cache, prepare every site dealing with the radix trees directly to handle entries other than pages. The common lookup functions will filter out non-page entries and return NULL for page cache holes, just as before. But provide a raw version of the API which returns non-page entries as well, and switch shmem over to use it.

The radix tree hole searching code is only used for page cache, for example the readahead code trying to get a a picture of the area surrounding a fault. It sufficed to rely on the radix tree definition of holes, which is "empty tree slot". But this is about to change, though, as shadow page descriptors will be stored in the page cache after the actual pages get evicted from memory. Move the functions over to mm/filemap.c and make them native page cache operations, where they can later be adapted to handle the new definition of "page cache hole".

Page cache radix tree slots are usually stabilized by the page lock, but shmem's swap cookies have no such thing. Because the overall truncation loop is lockless, the swap entry is currently confirmed by a tree lookup and then deleted by another tree lookup under the same tree lock region. Use radix_tree_delete_item() instead, which does the verification and deletion with only one lookup. This also allows removing the delete-only special case from shmem_radix_tree_replace().

The kernel can currently only handle a single hugetlb page fault at a time. This is due to a single mutex that serializes the entire path. This lock protects from spurious OOM errors under conditions of low availability of free hugepages. This problem is specific to hugepages, because it is normal to want to use every single hugepage in the system - with normal pages we simply assume there will always be a few spare pages which can be used temporarily until the race is resolved. Address this problem by using a table of mutexes, allowing a better chance of parallelization, where each hugepage is individually serialized. The hash key is selected depending on the mapping type. For shared ones it consists of the address space and file offset being faulted; while for private ones the mm and virtual address are used. The size of the table is selected based on a compromise of collisions and memory footprint of a series of database workloads. Large database workloads that make heavy use of hugepages can be particularly exposed to this issue, causing start-up times to be painfully slow. This patch reduces the startup time of a 10 Gb Oracle DB (with ~5000 faults) from 37.5 secs to 25.7 secs. Larger workloads will naturally benefit even more. NOTE: The only downside to this patch, detected by Joonsoo Kim, is that a small race is possible in private mappings: A child process (with its own mm, after cow) can instantiate a page that is already being handled by the parent in a cow fault. When low on pages, can trigger spurious OOMs. I have not been able to think of a efficient way of handling this... but do we really care about such a tiny window? We already maintain another theoretical race with normal pages. If not, one possible way to is to maintain the single hash for private mappings -- any workloads that *really* suffer from this scaling problem should already use shared mappings.

There is a race condition if we map a same file on different processes. Region tracking is protected by mmap_sem and hugetlb_instantiation_mutex. When we do mmap, we don't grab a hugetlb_instantiation_mutex, but only mmap_sem (exclusively). This doesn't prevent other tasks from modifying the region structure, so it can be modified by two processes concurrently. To solve this, introduce a spinlock to resv_map and make region manipulation function grab it before they do actual work.

Now, we are preparing to change a coarse grained lock which protect a region structure to fine grained lock, and this difference hinder it.

Since the naming, get/put_mems_allowed() does suggest a mandatory pairing, rename the interface, as suggested by Mel, to resemble the seqcount interface.

bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed() used the mod_delayed_work() function to schedule work to writeback dirty inodes. The problem with this is that it can delay work that is scheduled for immediate execution, such as the work from sync_inodes_sb(). This can happen since mod_delayed_work() can now steal work from a work_queue. This fixes the problem by using queue_delayed_work() instead. This is a regression caused by commit 839a8e86 ("writeback: replace custom worker pool implementation with unbound workqueue"). The reason that this causes a problem is that laptop-mode will change the delay, dirty_writeback_centisecs, to 60000 (10 minutes) by default. In the case that bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed() races with sync_inodes_sb(), sync will be stopped for 10 minutes and trigger a hung task. Even if dirty_writeback_centisecs is not long enough to cause a hung task, we still don't want to delay sync for that long. We fix the problem by using queue_delayed_work() when we want to schedule writeback sometime in future. This function doesn't change the timer if it is already armed. For the same reason, we also change bdi_writeback_workfn() to immediately queue the work again in the case that the work_list is not empty. The same problem can happen if the sync work is run on the rescue worker.

Add remove_linear_migration_ptes_from_nonlinear(), to fix an interesting little include/linux/swapops.h:131 BUG_ON(!PageLocked) found by trinity: indicating that remove_migration_ptes() failed to find one of the migration entries that was temporarily inserted. The problem comes from remap_file_pages()'s switch from vma_interval_tree (good for inserting the migration entry) to i_mmap_nonlinear list (no good for locating it again); but can only be a problem if the remap_file_pages() range does not cover the whole of the vma (zap_pte() clears the range). remove_migration_ptes() needs a file_nonlinear method to go down the i_mmap_nonlinear list, applying linear location to look for migration entries in those vmas too, just in case there was this race. The file_nonlinear method does need rmap_walk_control.arg to do this; but it never needed vma passed in - vma comes from its own iteration.

We received several reports of bad page state when freeing CMA pages previously allocated with alloc_contig_range: BUG: Bad page state in process Binder_A pfn:63202 page:d21130b0 count:0 mapcount:1 mapping: (null) index:0x7dfbf page flags: 0x40080068(uptodate|lru|active|swapbacked) Based on the page state, it looks like the page was still in use. The page flags do not make sense for the use case though. Further debugging showed that despite alloc_contig_range returning success, at least one page in the range still remained in the buddy allocator. There is an issue with isolate_freepages_block. In strict mode (which CMA uses), if any pages in the range cannot be isolated, isolate_freepages_block should return failure 0. The current check keeps track of the total number of isolated pages and compares against the size of the range: if (strict && nr_strict_required > total_isolated) total_isolated = 0; After taking the zone lock, if one of the pages in the range is not in the buddy allocator, we continue through the loop and do not increment total_isolated. If in the last iteration of the loop we isolate more than one page (e.g. last page needed is a higher order page), the check for total_isolated may pass and we fail to detect that a page was skipped. The fix is to bail out if the loop immediately if we are in strict mode. There's no benfit to continuing anyway since we need all pages to be isolated. Additionally, drop the error checking based on nr_strict_required and just check the pfn ranges. This matches with what isolate_freepages_range does.

It restricts the allocation to the specified node and does not invoke reclaim, assuming that the caller will take care of it when the fallback fails, e.g. through a subsequent allocation request without GFP_THISNODE set. However, many current GFP_THISNODE users only want the node exclusive aspect of the flag, without actually implementing their own fallback or triggering reclaim if necessary. This results in things like page migration failing prematurely even when there is easily reclaimable memory available, unless kswapd happens to be running already or a concurrent allocation attempt triggers the necessary reclaim. Convert all callsites that don't implement their own fallback strategy to __GFP_THISNODE. This restricts the allocation a single node too, but at the same time allows the allocator to enter the slowpath, wake kswapd, and invoke direct reclaim if necessary, to make the allocation happen when memory is full.

If we know that first N areas are all in use, we can obviously skip them when searching for a free one. And that kind of hint is very easy to maintain. Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

Current code keeps +-length for each area in chunk->map[]. It has several unpleasant consequences: * even if we know that first 50 areas are all in use, allocation still needs to go through all those areas just to sum their sizes, just to get the offset of free one. * freeing needs to find the array entry refering to the area in question; again, the need to sum the sizes until we reach the offset we are interested in. Note that offsets are monotonous, so simple binary search would do here. New data representation: array of <offset,in-use flag> pairs. Each pair is represented by one int - we use offset|1 for <offset, in use> and offset for <offset, free> (we make sure that all offsets are even). In the end we put a sentry entry - <total size, in use>. The first entry is <0, flag>; it would be possible to store together the flag for Nth area and offset for N+1st, but that leads to much hairier code. In other words, where the old variant would have 4, -8, -4, 4, -12, 100 (4 bytes free, 8 in use, 4 in use, 4 free, 12 in use, 100 free) we store <0,0>, <4,1>, <12,1>, <16,0>, <20,1>, <32,0>, <132,1> i.e. 0, 5, 13, 16, 21, 32, 133 This commit switches to new data representation and takes care of a couple of low-hanging fruits in free_pcpu_area() - one is the switch to binary search, another is not doing two memmove() when one would do. Speeding the alloc side up (by keeping track of how many areas in the beginning are known to be all in use) also becomes possible - that'll be done in the next commit.

... and simplify the results a bit. Makes the next step easier to deal with - we will be changing the data representation for chunk->map[] and it's easier to do if the code in question is not split between pcpu_alloc_area() and pcpu_split_block().

Jan Stancek reports manual page migration encountering allocation failures after some pages when there is still plenty of memory free, and bisected the problem down to commit 81c0a2bb ("mm: page_alloc: fair zone allocator policy"). The problem is that GFP_THISNODE obeys the zone fairness allocation batches on one hand, but doesn't reset them and wake kswapd on the other hand. After a few of those allocations, the batches are exhausted and the allocations fail. Fixing this means either having GFP_THISNODE wake up kswapd, or GFP_THISNODE not participating in zone fairness at all. The latter seems safer as an acute bugfix, we can clean up later.

This can be reproduced with default config since 3.11 kernels. A reproducer can be found in the kernel's selftest directory for networking by running ./psock_tpacket. The problem is that an order=2 compound page (allocated by alloc_one_pg_vec_page() is part of the munlocked VM_MIXEDMAP vma (mapped by packet_mmap()) and mistaken for a THP page and assumed to be order=9. The checks for THP in munlock came with commit ff6a6da6 ("mm: accelerate munlock() treatment of THP pages"), i.e. since 3.9, but did not trigger a bug. It just makes munlock_vma_pages_range() skip such compound pages until the next 512-pages-aligned page, when it encounters a head page. This is however not a problem for vma's where mlocking has no effect anyway, but it can distort the accounting. Since commit 7225522b ("mm: munlock: batch non-THP page isolation and munlock+putback using pagevec") this can trigger a VM_BUG_ON in PageTransHuge() check. This patch fixes the issue by adding VM_MIXEDMAP flag to VM_SPECIAL, a list of flags that make vma's non-mlockable and non-mergeable. The reasoning is that VM_MIXEDMAP vma's are similar to VM_PFNMAP, which is already on the VM_SPECIAL list, and both are intended for non-LRU pages where mlocking makes no sense anyway.

Sometimes the cleanup after memcg hierarchy testing gets stuck in mem_cgroup_reparent_charges(), unable to bring non-kmem usage down to 0. There may turn out to be several causes, but a major cause is this: the workitem to offline parent can get run before workitem to offline child; parent's mem_cgroup_reparent_charges() circles around waiting for the child's pages to be reparented to its lrus, but it's holding cgroup_mutex which prevents the child from reaching its mem_cgroup_reparent_charges(). Further testing showed that an ordered workqueue for cgroup_destroy_wq is not always good enough: percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm's call_rcu_sched stage on the way can mess up the order before reaching the workqueue. Instead, when offlining a memcg, call mem_cgroup_reparent_charges() on all its children (and grandchildren, in the correct order) to have their charges reparented first.

Commit 0eef6156 ("memcg: fix css reference leak and endless loop in mem_cgroup_iter") got the interaction with the commit a few before it d8ad3055 ("mm/memcg: iteration skip memcgs not yet fully initialized") slightly wrong, and we didn't notice at the time. It's elusive, and harder to get than the original, but for a couple of days before rc1, I several times saw a endless loop similar to that supposedly being fixed. This time it was a tighter loop in __mem_cgroup_iter_next(): because we can get here when our root has already been offlined, and the ordering of conditions was such that we then just cycled around forever.

Commit bf6bddf1 ("mm: introduce compaction and migration for ballooned pages") introduces page_count(page) into memory compaction which dereferences page->first_page if PageTail(page). This results in a very rare NULL pointer dereference on the aforementioned page_count(page). Indeed, anything that does compound_head(), including page_count() is susceptible to racing with prep_compound_page() and seeing a NULL or dangling page->first_page pointer. This patch uses Andrea's implementation of compound_trans_head() that deals with such a race and makes it the default compound_head() implementation. This includes a read memory barrier that ensures that if PageTail(head) is true that we return a head page that is neither NULL nor dangling. The patch then adds a store memory barrier to prep_compound_page() to ensure page->first_page is set. This is the safest way to ensure we see the head page that we are expecting, PageTail(page) is already in the unlikely() path and the memory barriers are unfortunately required. Hugetlbfs is the exception, we don't enforce a store memory barrier during init since no race is possible.
