According to Vlastimil Babka, the drained field in pagevec is potentially misleading because it might be interpreted as draining this pagevec instead of the percpu lru pagevecs. Rename the field for clarity.

rmqueue_bulk() fills an empty pcplist with pages from the free list. It tries to preserve increasing order by pfn to the caller, because it leads to better performance with some I/O controllers, as explained in commit e084b2d9 ("page-allocator: preserve PFN ordering when __GFP_COLD is set"). To preserve the order, it's sufficient to add pages to the tail of the list as they are retrieved. The current code instead adds to the head of the list, but then updates the list head pointer to the last added page, in each step. This does result in the same order, but is needlessly confusing and potentially wasteful, with no apparent benefit. This patch simplifies the code and adjusts comment accordingly.

As the page free path makes no distinction between cache hot and cold pages, there is no real useful ordering of pages in the free list that allocation requests can take advantage of. Juding from the users of __GFP_COLD, it is likely that a number of them are the result of copying other sites instead of actually measuring the impact. Remove the __GFP_COLD parameter which simplifies a number of paths in the page allocator. This is potentially controversial but bear in mind that the size of the per-cpu pagelists versus modern cache sizes means that the whole per-cpu list can often fit in the L3 cache. Hence, there is only a potential benefit for microbenchmarks that alloc/free pages in a tight loop. It's even worse when THP is taken into account which has little or no chance of getting a cache-hot page as the per-cpu list is bypassed and the zeroing of multiple pages will thrash the cache anyway. The truncate microbenchmarks are not shown as this patch affects the allocation path and not the free path. A page fault microbenchmark was tested but it showed no sigificant difference which is not surprising given that the __GFP_COLD branches are a miniscule percentage of the fault path.

Most callers users of free_hot_cold_page claim the pages being released are cache hot. The exception is the page reclaim paths where it is likely that enough pages will be freed in the near future that the per-cpu lists are going to be recycled and the cache hotness information is lost. As no one really cares about the hotness of pages being released to the allocator, just ditch the parameter. The APIs are renamed to indicate that it's no longer about hot/cold pages. It should also be less confusing as there are subtle differences between them. __free_pages drops a reference and frees a page when the refcount reaches zero. free_hot_cold_page handled pages whose refcount was already zero which is non-obvious from the name. free_unref_page should be more obvious. No performance impact is expected as the overhead is marginal. The parameter is removed simply because it is a bit stupid to have a useless parameter copied everywhere.

When a pagevec is initialised on the stack, it is generally used multiple times over a range of pages, looking up entries and then releasing them. On each pagevec_release, the per-cpu deferred LRU pagevecs are drained on the grounds the page being released may be on those queues and the pages may be cache hot. In many cases only the first drain is necessary as it's unlikely that the range of pages being walked is racing against LRU addition. Even if there is such a race, the impact is marginal where as constantly redraining the lru pagevecs costs. This patch ensures that pagevec is only drained once in a given lifecycle without increasing the cache footprint of the pagevec structure. Only sparsetruncate tiny is shown here as large files have many exceptional entries and calls pagecache_release less frequently. sparsetruncate (tiny) 4.14.0-rc4 4.14.0-rc4 batchshadow-v1r1 onedrain-v1r1 Min Time 141.00 ( 0.00%) 141.00 ( 0.00%) 1st-qrtle Time 142.00 ( 0.00%) 142.00 ( 0.00%) 2nd-qrtle Time 142.00 ( 0.00%) 142.00 ( 0.00%) 3rd-qrtle Time 143.00 ( 0.00%) 143.00 ( 0.00%) Max-90% Time 144.00 ( 0.00%) 144.00 ( 0.00%) Max-95% Time 146.00 ( 0.00%) 145.00 ( 0.68%) Max-99% Time 198.00 ( 0.00%) 194.00 ( 2.02%) Max Time 254.00 ( 0.00%) 208.00 ( 18.11%) Amean Time 145.12 ( 0.00%) 144.30 ( 0.56%) Stddev Time 12.74 ( 0.00%) 9.62 ( 24.49%) Coeff Time 8.78 ( 0.00%) 6.67 ( 24.06%) Best99%Amean Time 144.29 ( 0.00%) 143.82 ( 0.32%) Best95%Amean Time 142.68 ( 0.00%) 142.31 ( 0.26%) Best90%Amean Time 142.52 ( 0.00%) 142.19 ( 0.24%) Best75%Amean Time 142.26 ( 0.00%) 141.98 ( 0.20%) Best50%Amean Time 141.90 ( 0.00%) 141.71 ( 0.13%) Best25%Amean Time 141.80 ( 0.00%) 141.43 ( 0.26%) The impact on bonnie is marginal and within the noise because a significant percentage of the file being truncated has been reclaimed and consists of shadow entries which reduce the hotness of the pagevec_release path.

During truncate each entry in a pagevec is checked to see if it is an exceptional entry and if so, the shadow entry is cleaned up. This is potentially expensive as multiple entries for a mapping locks/unlocks the tree lock. This batches the operation such that any exceptional entries removed from a pagevec only acquire the mapping tree lock once. The corner case where this is more expensive is where there is only one exceptional entry but this is unlikely due to temporal locality and how it affects LRU ordering. Note that for truncations of small files created recently, this patch should show no gain because it only batches the handling of exceptional entries. sparsetruncate (large) 4.14.0-rc4 4.14.0-rc4 pickhelper-v1r1 batchshadow-v1r1 Min Time 38.00 ( 0.00%) 27.00 ( 28.95%) 1st-qrtle Time 40.00 ( 0.00%) 28.00 ( 30.00%) 2nd-qrtle Time 44.00 ( 0.00%) 41.00 ( 6.82%) 3rd-qrtle Time 146.00 ( 0.00%) 147.00 ( -0.68%) Max-90% Time 153.00 ( 0.00%) 153.00 ( 0.00%) Max-95% Time 155.00 ( 0.00%) 156.00 ( -0.65%) Max-99% Time 181.00 ( 0.00%) 171.00 ( 5.52%) Amean Time 93.04 ( 0.00%) 88.43 ( 4.96%) Best99%Amean Time 92.08 ( 0.00%) 86.13 ( 6.46%) Best95%Amean Time 89.19 ( 0.00%) 83.13 ( 6.80%) Best90%Amean Time 85.60 ( 0.00%) 79.15 ( 7.53%) Best75%Amean Time 72.95 ( 0.00%) 65.09 ( 10.78%) Best50%Amean Time 39.86 ( 0.00%) 28.20 ( 29.25%) Best25%Amean Time 39.44 ( 0.00%) 27.70 ( 29.77%) bonnie 4.14.0-rc4 4.14.0-rc4 pickhelper-v1r1 batchshadow-v1r1 Hmean SeqCreate ops 71.92 ( 0.00%) 76.78 ( 6.76%) Hmean SeqCreate read 42.42 ( 0.00%) 45.01 ( 6.10%) Hmean SeqCreate del 26519.88 ( 0.00%) 27191.87 ( 2.53%) Hmean RandCreate ops 71.92 ( 0.00%) 76.95 ( 7.00%) Hmean RandCreate read 44.44 ( 0.00%) 49.23 ( 10.78%) Hmean RandCreate del 24948.62 ( 0.00%) 24764.97 ( -0.74%) Truncation of a large number of files shows a substantial gain with 99% of files being truncated 6.46% faster. bonnie shows a modest gain of 2.53% [jack@suse.cz: fix truncate_exceptional_pvec_entries()] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171108164226.26788-1-jack@suse.cz Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171018075952.10627-4-mgorman@techsingularity.netSigned-off-by: NMel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Signed-off-by: NJan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Reviewed-by: NJan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Acked-by: NJohannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@intel.com> Cc: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

During truncation, the mapping has already been checked for shmem and dax so it's known that workingset_update_node is required. This patch avoids the checks on mapping for each page being truncated. In all other cases, a lookup helper is used to determine if workingset_update_node() needs to be called. The one danger is that the API is slightly harder to use as calling workingset_update_node directly without checking for dax or shmem mappings could lead to surprises. However, the API rarely needs to be used and hopefully the comment is enough to give people the hint. sparsetruncate (tiny) 4.14.0-rc4 4.14.0-rc4 oneirq-v1r1 pickhelper-v1r1 Min Time 141.00 ( 0.00%) 140.00 ( 0.71%) 1st-qrtle Time 142.00 ( 0.00%) 141.00 ( 0.70%) 2nd-qrtle Time 142.00 ( 0.00%) 142.00 ( 0.00%) 3rd-qrtle Time 143.00 ( 0.00%) 143.00 ( 0.00%) Max-90% Time 144.00 ( 0.00%) 144.00 ( 0.00%) Max-95% Time 147.00 ( 0.00%) 145.00 ( 1.36%) Max-99% Time 195.00 ( 0.00%) 191.00 ( 2.05%) Max Time 230.00 ( 0.00%) 205.00 ( 10.87%) Amean Time 144.37 ( 0.00%) 143.82 ( 0.38%) Stddev Time 10.44 ( 0.00%) 9.00 ( 13.74%) Coeff Time 7.23 ( 0.00%) 6.26 ( 13.41%) Best99%Amean Time 143.72 ( 0.00%) 143.34 ( 0.26%) Best95%Amean Time 142.37 ( 0.00%) 142.00 ( 0.26%) Best90%Amean Time 142.19 ( 0.00%) 141.85 ( 0.24%) Best75%Amean Time 141.92 ( 0.00%) 141.58 ( 0.24%) Best50%Amean Time 141.69 ( 0.00%) 141.31 ( 0.27%) Best25%Amean Time 141.38 ( 0.00%) 140.97 ( 0.29%) As you'd expect, the gain is marginal but it can be detected.

Patch series "Follow-up for speed up page cache truncation", v2. This series is a follow-on for Jan Kara's series "Speed up page cache truncation" series. We both ended up looking at the same problem but saw different problems based on the same data. This series builds upon his work. A variety of workloads were compared on four separate machines but each machine showed gains albeit at different levels. Minimally, some of the differences are due to NUMA where truncating data from a remote node is slower than a local node. The workloads checked were o sparse truncate microbenchmark, tiny o sparse truncate microbenchmark, large o reaim-io disk workfile o dbench4 (modified by mmtests to produce more stable results) o filebench varmail configuration for small memory size o bonnie, directory operations, working set size 2*RAM reaim-io, dbench and filebench all showed minor gains. Truncation does not dominate those workloads but were tested to ensure no other regressions. They will not be reported further. The sparse truncate microbench was written by Jan. It creates a number of files and then times how long it takes to truncate each one. The "tiny" configuraiton creates a number of files that easily fits in memory and times how long it takes to truncate files with page cache. The large configuration uses enough files to have data that is twice the size of memory and so timings there include truncating page cache and working set shadow entries in the radix tree. Patches 1-4 are the most relevant parts of this series. Patches 5-8 are optional as they are deleting code that is essentially useless but has a negligible performance impact. The changelogs have more information on performance but just for bonnie delete options, the main comparison is bonnie 4.14.0-rc5 4.14.0-rc5 4.14.0-rc5 jan-v2 vanilla mel-v2 Hmean SeqCreate ops 76.20 ( 0.00%) 75.80 ( -0.53%) 76.80 ( 0.79%) Hmean SeqCreate read 85.00 ( 0.00%) 85.00 ( 0.00%) 85.00 ( 0.00%) Hmean SeqCreate del 13752.31 ( 0.00%) 12090.23 ( -12.09%) 15304.84 ( 11.29%) Hmean RandCreate ops 76.00 ( 0.00%) 75.60 ( -0.53%) 77.00 ( 1.32%) Hmean RandCreate read 96.80 ( 0.00%) 96.80 ( 0.00%) 97.00 ( 0.21%) Hmean RandCreate del 13233.75 ( 0.00%) 11525.35 ( -12.91%) 14446.61 ( 9.16%) Jan's series is the baseline and the vanilla kernel is 12% slower where as this series on top gains another 11%.

Currently we remove pages from the radix tree one by one. To speed up page cache truncation, lock several pages at once and free them in one go. This allows us to batch radix tree operations in a more efficient way and also save round-trips on mapping->tree_lock. As a result we gain about 20% speed improvement in page cache truncation. Data from a simple benchmark timing 10000 truncates of 1024 pages (on ext4 on ramdisk but the filesystem is barely visible in the profiles).

Factor out page freeing from delete_from_page_cache() into a separate function. We will need to call the same when batching pagecache deletion operations. invalidate_complete_page2() and replace_page_cache_page() might want to call this function as well however they currently don't seem to handle THPs so it's unnecessary for them to take the hit of checking whether a page is THP or not.

Patch series "Speed up page cache truncation", v1. When rebasing our enterprise distro to a newer kernel (from 4.4 to 4.12) we have noticed a regression in bonnie++ benchmark when deleting files. Eventually we have tracked this down to a fact that page cache truncation got slower by about 10%. There were both gains and losses in the above interval of kernels but we have been able to identify that commit 83929372 ("filemap: prepare find and delete operations for huge pages") caused about 10% regression on its own. After some investigation it didn't seem easily possible to fix the regression while maintaining the THP in page cache functionality so we've decided to optimize the page cache truncation path instead to make up for the change. This series is a result of that effort. Patch 1 is an easy speedup of cancel_dirty_page(). Patches 2-6 refactor page cache truncation code so that it is easier to batch radix tree operations. Patch 7 implements batching of deletes from the radix tree which more than makes up for the original regression. This patch (of 7): cancel_dirty_page() does quite some work even for clean pages (fetching of mapping, locking of memcg, atomic bit op on page flags) so it accounts for ~2.5% of cost of truncation of a clean page. That is not much but still dumb for something we don't need at all. Check whether a page is actually dirty and avoid any work if not.

__rmqueue(), __rmqueue_fallback(), __rmqueue_smallest() and __rmqueue_cma_fallback() are all in page allocator's hot path and better be finished as soon as possible. One way to make them faster is by making them inline. But as Andrew Morton and Andi Kleen pointed out: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/10/10/1252 https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/10/10/1279 To make sure they are inlined, we should use __always_inline for them. With the will-it-scale/page_fault1/process benchmark, when using nr_cpu processes to stress buddy, the results for will-it-scale.processes with and without the patch are: On a 2-sockets Intel-Skylake machine: compiler base head gcc-4.4.7 6496131 6911823 +6.4% gcc-4.9.4 7225110 7731072 +7.0% gcc-5.4.1 7054224 7688146 +9.0% gcc-6.2.0 7059794 7651675 +8.4% On a 4-sockets Intel-Skylake machine: compiler base head gcc-4.4.7 13162890 13508193 +2.6% gcc-4.9.4 14997463 15484353 +3.2% gcc-5.4.1 14708711 15449805 +5.0% gcc-6.2.0 14574099 15349204 +5.3% The above 4 compilers are used because I've done the tests through Intel's Linux Kernel Performance(LKP) infrastructure and they are the available compilers there. The benefit being less on 4 sockets machine is due to the lock contention there(perf-profile/native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath=81%) is less severe than on the 2 sockets machine(85%). What the benchmark does is: it forks nr_cpu processes and then each process does the following: 1 mmap() 128M anonymous space; 2 writes to each page there to trigger actual page allocation; 3 munmap() it. in a loop. https://github.com/antonblanchard/will-it-scale/blob/master/tests/page_fault1.c Binary size wise, I have locally built them with different compilers: [aaron@aaronlu obj]$ size */*/mm/page_alloc.o text data bss dec hex filename 37409 9904 8524 55837 da1d gcc-4.9.4/base/mm/page_alloc.o 38273 9904 8524 56701 dd7d gcc-4.9.4/head/mm/page_alloc.o 37465 9840 8428 55733 d9b5 gcc-5.5.0/base/mm/page_alloc.o 38169 9840 8428 56437 dc75 gcc-5.5.0/head/mm/page_alloc.o 37573 9840 8428 55841 da21 gcc-6.4.0/base/mm/page_alloc.o 38261 9840 8428 56529 dcd1 gcc-6.4.0/head/mm/page_alloc.o 36863 9840 8428 55131 d75b gcc-7.2.0/base/mm/page_alloc.o 37711 9840 8428 55979 daab gcc-7.2.0/head/mm/page_alloc.o Text size increased about 800 bytes for mm/page_alloc.o.

Some memory is reserved but unavailable: not present in memblock.memory (because not backed by physical pages), but present in memblock.reserved. Such memory has backing struct pages, but they are not initialized by going through __init_single_page(). In some cases these struct pages are accessed even if they do not contain any data. One example is page_to_pfn() might access page->flags if this is where section information is stored (CONFIG_SPARSEMEM, SECTION_IN_PAGE_FLAGS). One example of such memory: trim_low_memory_range() unconditionally reserves from pfn 0, but e820__memblock_setup() might provide the exiting memory from pfn 1 (i.e. KVM). Since struct pages are zeroed in __init_single_page(), and not during allocation time, we must zero such struct pages explicitly. The patch involves adding a new memblock iterator: for_each_resv_unavail_range(i, p_start, p_end) Which iterates through reserved && !memory lists, and we zero struct pages explicitly by calling mm_zero_struct_page(). === Here is more detailed example of problem that this patch is addressing: Run tested on qemu with the following arguments: -enable-kvm -cpu kvm64 -m 512 -smp 2 This patch reports that there are 98 unavailable pages. They are: pfn 0 and pfns in range [159, 255]. Note, trim_low_memory_range() reserves only pfns in range [0, 15], it does not reserve [159, 255] ones. e820__memblock_setup() reports linux that the following physical ranges are available: [1 , 158] [256, 130783] Notice, that exactly unavailable pfns are missing! Now, lets check what we have in zone 0: [1, 131039] pfn 0, is not part of the zone, but pfns [1, 158], are. However, the bigger problem we have if we do not initialize these struct pages is with memory hotplug. Because, that path operates at 2M boundaries (section_nr). And checks if 2M range of pages is hot removable. It starts with first pfn from zone, rounds it down to 2M boundary (sturct pages are allocated at 2M boundaries when vmemmap is created), and checks if that section is hot removable. In this case start with pfn 1 and convert it down to pfn 0. Later pfn is converted to struct page, and some fields are checked. Now, if we do not zero struct pages, we get unpredictable results. In fact when CONFIG_VM_DEBUG is enabled, and we explicitly set all vmemmap memory to ones, the following panic is observed with kernel test without this patch applied: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: is_pageblock_removable_nolock+0x35/0x90 PGD 0 P4D 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT ... task: ffff88001f4e2900 task.stack: ffffc90000314000 RIP: 0010:is_pageblock_removable_nolock+0x35/0x90 Call Trace: ? is_mem_section_removable+0x5a/0xd0 show_mem_removable+0x6b/0xa0 dev_attr_show+0x1b/0x50 sysfs_kf_seq_show+0xa1/0x100 kernfs_seq_show+0x22/0x30 seq_read+0x1ac/0x3a0 kernfs_fop_read+0x36/0x190 ? security_file_permission+0x90/0xb0 __vfs_read+0x16/0x30 vfs_read+0x81/0x130 SyS_read+0x44/0xa0 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x1f/0xbd Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171013173214.27300-7-pasha.tatashin@oracle.comSigned-off-by: NPavel Tatashin <pasha.tatashin@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: NSteven Sistare <steven.sistare@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: NDaniel Jordan <daniel.m.jordan@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: NBob Picco <bob.picco@oracle.com> Tested-by: NBob Picco <bob.picco@oracle.com> Acked-by: NMichal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Alexander Potapenko <glider@google.com> Cc: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@virtuozzo.com> Cc: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Cc: David S.

* A new variant of memblock_virt_alloc_* allocations: memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_raw() - Does not zero the allocated memory - Does not panic if request cannot be satisfied * optimize early system hash allocations Clients can call alloc_large_system_hash() with flag: HASH_ZERO to specify that memory that was allocated for system hash needs to be zeroed, otherwise the memory does not need to be zeroed, and client will initialize it. If memory does not need to be zero'd, call the new memblock_virt_alloc_raw() interface, and thus improve the boot performance. * debug for raw alloctor When CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled, this patch sets all the memory that is returned by memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_raw() to ones to ensure that no places excpect zeroed memory.

Patch series "complete deferred page initialization", v12. SMP machines can benefit from the DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT config option, which defers initializing struct pages until all cpus have been started so it can be done in parallel. However, this feature is sub-optimal, because the deferred page initialization code expects that the struct pages have already been zeroed, and the zeroing is done early in boot with a single thread only. Also, we access that memory and set flags before struct pages are initialized. All of this is fixed in this patchset. In this work we do the following: - Never read access struct page until it was initialized - Never set any fields in struct pages before they are initialized - Zero struct page at the beginning of struct page initialization ========================================================================== Performance improvements on x86 machine with 8 nodes: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E7-8895 v3 @ 2.60GHz and 1T of memory: TIME SPEED UP base no deferred: 95.796233s fix no deferred: 79.978956s 19.77% base deferred: 77.254713s fix deferred: 55.050509s 40.34% ========================================================================== SPARC M6 3600 MHz with 15T of memory TIME SPEED UP base no deferred: 358.335727s fix no deferred: 302.320936s 18.52% base deferred: 237.534603s fix deferred: 182.103003s 30.44% ========================================================================== Raw dmesg output with timestamps: x86 base no deferred: https://hastebin.com/ofunepurit.scala x86 base deferred: https://hastebin.com/ifazegeyas.scala x86 fix no deferred: https://hastebin.com/pegocohevo.scala x86 fix deferred: https://hastebin.com/ofupevikuk.scala sparc base no deferred: https://hastebin.com/ibobeteken.go sparc base deferred: https://hastebin.com/fariqimiyu.go sparc fix no deferred: https://hastebin.com/muhegoheyi.go sparc fix deferred: https://hastebin.com/xadinobutu.go This patch (of 11): deferred_init_memmap() is called when struct pages are initialized later in boot by slave CPUs. This patch simplifies and optimizes this function, and also fixes a couple issues (described below). The main change is that now we are iterating through free memblock areas instead of all configured memory. Thus, we do not have to check if the struct page has already been initialized. ===== In deferred_init_memmap() where all deferred struct pages are initialized we have a check like this: if (page->flags) { VM_BUG_ON(page_zone(page) != zone); goto free_range; } This way we are checking if the current deferred page has already been initialized. It works, because memory for struct pages has been zeroed, and the only way flags are not zero if it went through __init_single_page() before. But, once we change the current behavior and won't zero the memory in memblock allocator, we cannot trust anything inside "struct page"es until they are initialized. This patch fixes this. The deferred_init_memmap() is re-written to loop through only free memory ranges provided by memblock. Note, this first issue is relevant only when the following change is merged: ===== This patch fixes another existing issue on systems that have holes in zones i.e CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE is defined. In for_each_mem_pfn_range() we have code like this: if (!pfn_valid_within(pfn) goto free_range; Note: 'page' is not set to NULL and is not incremented but 'pfn' advances. Thus means if deferred struct pages are enabled on systems with these kind of holes, linux would get memory corruptions. I have fixed this issue by defining a new macro that performs all the necessary operations when we free the current set of pages.

Patch series "kmemcheck: kill kmemcheck", v2. As discussed at LSF/MM, kill kmemcheck. KASan is a replacement that is able to work without the limitation of kmemcheck (single CPU, slow). KASan is already upstream. We are also not aware of any users of kmemcheck (or users who don't consider KASan as a suitable replacement). The only objection was that since KASAN wasn't supported by all GCC versions provided by distros at that time we should hold off for 2 years, and try again. Now that 2 years have passed, and all distros provide gcc that supports KASAN, kill kmemcheck again for the very same reasons.

The allocations from filp cache can be directly triggered by userspace applications. A buggy application can consume a significant amount of unaccounted system memory. Though we have not noticed such buggy applications in our production but upon close inspection, we found that a lot of machines spend very significant amount of memory on these caches. One way to limit allocations from filp cache is to set system level limit of maximum number of open files. However this limit is shared between different users on the system and one user can hog this resource. To cater that, we can charge filp to kmemcg and set the maximum limit very high and let the memory limit of each user limit the number of files they can open and indirectly limiting their allocations from filp cache. One side effect of this change is that it will allow _sysctl() to return ENOMEM and the man page of _sysctl() does not specify that. However the man page also discourages to use _sysctl() at all.

Currently, we account page tables separately for each page table level, but that's redundant -- we only make use of total memory allocated to page tables for oom_badness calculation. We also provide the information to userspace, but it has dubious value there too. This patch switches page table accounting to single counter. mm->pgtables_bytes is now used to account all page table levels. We use bytes, because page table size for different levels of page table tree may be different. The change has user-visible effect: we don't have VmPMD and VmPUD reported in /proc/[pid]/status. Not sure if anybody uses them. (As alternative, we can always report 0 kB for them.) OOM-killer report is also slightly changed: we now report pgtables_bytes instead of nr_ptes, nr_pmd, nr_puds. Apart from reducing number of counters per-mm, the benefit is that we now calculate oom_badness() more correctly for machines which have different size of page tables depending on level or where page tables are less than a page in size. The only downside can be debuggability because we do not know which page table level could leak. But I do not remember many bugs that would be caught by separate counters so I wouldn't lose sleep over this.
