kernel.h header doesn't directly use dynamic debug, instead we can include it in module.c (which used it via kernel.h). printk.h only uses it if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG is on, changing the inclusion to only happen in that case.

The state of object currently tracked in two places - shadow memory, and the ->state field in struct kasan_alloc_meta. We can get rid of the latter. The will save us a little bit of memory. Also, this allow us to move free stack into struct kasan_alloc_meta, without increasing memory consumption. So now we should always know when the last time the object was freed. This may be useful for long delayed use-after-free bugs. As a side effect this fixes following UBSAN warning: UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in mm/kasan/quarantine.c:102:13 member access within misaligned address ffff88000d1efebc for type 'struct qlist_node' which requires 8 byte alignment Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1470062715-14077-5-git-send-email-aryabinin@virtuozzo.comReported-by: Nkernel test robot <xiaolong.ye@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@virtuozzo.com> Cc: Alexander Potapenko <glider@google.com> Cc: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This reverts commit 3c9fe8cd. As Miklos points out in commit c1b2cc1a, the "lookup_hash()" helper is now unused, and in fact, with the hash salting changes, since the hash of a dentry name now depends on the directory dentry it is in, the helper function isn't even really likely to be useful. So rather than keep it around in case somebody else might end up finding a use for it, let's just remove the helper and not trick people into thinking it might be a useful thing. For example, I had obviously completely missed how the helper didn't follow the normal dentry hashing patterns, and how the hash salting patch broke overlayfs. Things would quietly build and look sane, but not work. Suggested-by: NMiklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

由 Vlastimil Babka 提交于
Async compaction detects contention either due to failing trylock on zone->lock or lru_lock, or by need_resched(). Since 1f9efdef ("mm, compaction: khugepaged should not give up due to need_resched()") the code got quite complicated to distinguish these two up to the __alloc_pages_slowpath() level, so different decisions could be taken for khugepaged allocations. After the recent changes, khugepaged allocations don't check for contended compaction anymore, so we again don't need to distinguish lock and sched contention, and simplify the current convoluted code a lot. However, I believe it's also possible to simplify even more and completely remove the check for contended compaction after the initial async compaction for costly orders, which was originally aimed at THP page fault allocations. There are several reasons why this can be done now: - with the new defaults, THP page faults no longer do reclaim/compaction at all, unless the system admin has overridden the default, or application has indicated via madvise that it can benefit from THP's. In both cases, it means that the potential extra latency is expected and worth the benefits. - even if reclaim/compaction proceeds after this patch where it previously wouldn't, the second compaction attempt is still async and will detect the contention and back off, if the contention persists - there are still heuristics like deferred compaction and pageblock skip bits in place that prevent excessive THP page fault latencies Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160721073614.24395-9-vbabka@suse.czSigned-off-by: NVlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Acked-by: NMichal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Acked-by: NMel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

由 Vlastimil Babka 提交于
In the context of direct compaction, for some types of allocations we would like the compaction to either succeed or definitely fail while trying as hard as possible. Current async/sync_light migration mode is insufficient, as there are heuristics such as caching scanner positions, marking pageblocks as unsuitable or deferring compaction for a zone. At least the final compaction attempt should be able to override these heuristics. To communicate how hard compaction should try, we replace migration mode with a new enum compact_priority and change the relevant function signatures. In compact_zone_order() where struct compact_control is constructed, the priority is mapped to suitable control flags. This patch itself has no functional change, as the current priority levels are mapped back to the same migration modes as before. Expanding them will be done next. Note that !CONFIG_COMPACTION variant of try_to_compact_pages() is removed, as the only caller exists under CONFIG_COMPACTION.

After the previous patch, we can distinguish costly allocations that should be really lightweight, such as THP page faults, with __GFP_NORETRY. This means we don't need to recognize khugepaged allocations via PF_KTHREAD anymore. We can also change THP page faults in areas where madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) was used to try as hard as khugepaged, as the process has indicated that it benefits from THP's and is willing to pay some initial latency costs. We can also make the flags handling less cryptic by distinguishing GFP_TRANSHUGE_LIGHT (no reclaim at all, default mode in page fault) from GFP_TRANSHUGE (only direct reclaim, khugepaged default). Adding __GFP_NORETRY or __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM is done where needed. The patch effectively changes the current GFP_TRANSHUGE users as follows: * get_huge_zero_page() - the zero page lifetime should be relatively long and it's shared by multiple users, so it's worth spending some effort on it. We use GFP_TRANSHUGE, and __GFP_NORETRY is not added. This also restores direct reclaim to this allocation, which was unintentionally removed by commit e4a49efe4e7e ("mm: thp: set THP defrag by default to madvise and add a stall-free defrag option") * alloc_hugepage_khugepaged_gfpmask() - this is khugepaged, so latency is not an issue. So if khugepaged "defrag" is enabled (the default), do reclaim via GFP_TRANSHUGE without __GFP_NORETRY. We can remove the PF_KTHREAD check from page alloc. As a side-effect, khugepaged will now no longer check if the initial compaction was deferred or contended. This is OK, as khugepaged sleep times between collapsion attempts are long enough to prevent noticeable disruption, so we should allow it to spend some effort. * migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() - already was masking out __GFP_RECLAIM, so just convert to GFP_TRANSHUGE_LIGHT which is equivalent. * alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask() - vma's with VM_HUGEPAGE (via madvise) are now allocating without __GFP_NORETRY. Other vma's keep using __GFP_NORETRY if direct reclaim/compaction is at all allowed (by default it's allowed only for madvised vma's). The rest is conversion to GFP_TRANSHUGE(_LIGHT).

In some cases, memblock is queried by kernel to determine whether a specified address is RAM or not. For example, the ACPI core needs this information to determine which attributes to use when mapping ACPI regions(acpi_os_ioremap). Use of incorrect memory types can result in faults, data corruption, or other issues. Removing memory with memblock_enforce_memory_limit() throws away this information, and so a kernel booted with 'mem=' may suffer from the issues described above. To avoid this, we need to keep those NOMAP regions instead of removing all above the limit, which preserves the information we need while preventing other use of those regions. This patch adds new infrastructure to retain all NOMAP memblock regions while removing others, to cater for this.

Currently, NR_KERNEL_STACK tracks the number of kernel stacks in a zone. This only makes sense if each kernel stack exists entirely in one zone, and allowing vmapped stacks could break this assumption.

Counts are updated before pages are added to the LRU and updated after pages are removed. The warning above is from a check in mem_cgroup_update_lru_size that ensures that list sizes of zero are empty. The problem is that node-lru needs to account for highmem pages if CONFIG_HIGHMEM is set. One impact of the implementation is that the sizes are updated in multiple passes when pages from multiple zones were isolated. This happens whether HIGHMEM is set or not. When multiple zones are isolated, it's possible for a debugging check in memcg to be tripped. This patch forces all the zone counts to be updated before the memcg function is called.

The number of LRU pages, dirty pages and writeback pages must be accounted for on both zones and nodes because of the reclaim retry logic, compaction retry logic and highmem calculations all depending on per-zone stats. Many lowmem allocations are immune from OOM kill due to a check in __alloc_pages_may_oom for (ac->high_zoneidx < ZONE_NORMAL) since commit 03668b3c ("oom: avoid oom killer for lowmem allocations"). The exception is costly high-order allocations or allocations that cannot fail. If the __alloc_pages_may_oom avoids OOM-kill for low-order lowmem allocations then it would fall through to __alloc_pages_direct_compact. This patch will blindly retry reclaim for zone-constrained allocations in should_reclaim_retry up to MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES. This is not ideal but without per-zone stats there are not many alternatives. The impact it that zone-constrained allocations may delay before considering the OOM killer. As there is no guarantee enough memory can ever be freed to satisfy compaction, this patch avoids retrying compaction for zone-contrained allocations. In combination, that means that the per-node stats can be used when deciding whether to continue reclaim using a rough approximation. While it is possible this will make the wrong decision on occasion, it will not infinite loop as the number of reclaim attempts is capped by MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES. The final step is calculating the number of dirtyable highmem pages. As those calculations only care about the global count of file pages in highmem. This patch uses a global counter used instead of per-zone stats as it is sufficient. In combination, this allows the per-zone LRU and dirty state counters to be removed.

The vmstat allocstall was fairly useful in the general sense but node-based LRUs change that. It's important to know if a stall was for an address-limited allocation request as this will require skipping pages from other zones. This patch adds pgstall_* counters to replace allocstall. The sum of the counters will equal the old allocstall so it can be trivially recalculated. A high number of address-limited allocation requests may result in a lot of useless LRU scanning for suitable pages. As address-limited allocations require pages to be skipped, it's important to know how much useless LRU scanning took place so this patch adds pgskip* counters. This yields the following model 1. The number of address-space limited stalls can be accounted for (pgstall) 2. The amount of useless work required to reclaim the data is accounted (pgskip) 3. The total number of scans is available from pgscan_kswapd and pgscan_direct so from that the ratio of useful to useless scans can be calculated.

As reclaim is now per-node based, convert zone_reclaim to be node_reclaim. It is possible that a node will be reclaimed multiple times if it has multiple zones but this is unavoidable without caching all nodes traversed so far. The documentation and interface to userspace is the same from a configuration perspective and will will be similar in behaviour unless the node-local allocation requests were also limited to lower zones.

As reclaim is now node-based, it follows that page write activity due to page reclaim should also be accounted for on the node. For consistency, also account page writes and page dirtying on a per-node basis. After this patch, there are a few remaining zone counters that may appear strange but are fine. NUMA stats are still per-zone as this is a user-space interface that tools consume. NR_MLOCK, NR_SLAB_*, NR_PAGETABLE, NR_KERNEL_STACK and NR_BOUNCE are all allocations that potentially pin low memory and cannot trivially be reclaimed on demand. This information is still useful for debugging a page allocation failure warning.

There are now a number of accounting oddities such as mapped file pages being accounted for on the node while the total number of file pages are accounted on the zone. This can be coped with to some extent but it's confusing so this patch moves the relevant file-based accounted. Due to throttling logic in the page allocator for reliable OOM detection, it is still necessary to track dirty and writeback pages on a per-zone basis.

Memcg needs adjustment after moving LRUs to the node. Limits are tracked per memcg but the soft-limit excess is tracked per zone. As global page reclaim is based on the node, it is easy to imagine a situation where a zone soft limit is exceeded even though the memcg limit is fine. This patch moves the soft limit tree the node. Technically, all the variable names should also change but people are already familiar by the meaning of "mz" even if "mn" would be a more appropriate name now.

Earlier patches focused on having direct reclaim and kswapd use data that is node-centric for reclaiming but shrink_node() itself still uses too much zone information. This patch removes unnecessary zone-based information with the most important decision being whether to continue reclaim or not. Some memcg APIs are adjusted as a result even though memcg itself still uses some zone information.

kswapd goes through some complex steps trying to figure out if it should stay awake based on the classzone_idx and the requested order. It is unnecessarily complex and passes in an invalid classzone_idx to balance_pgdat(). What matters most of all is whether a larger order has been requsted and whether kswapd successfully reclaimed at the previous order. This patch irons out the logic to check just that and the end result is less headache inducing.

The balance gap was introduced to apply equal pressure to all zones when reclaiming for a higher zone. With node-based LRU, the need for the balance gap is removed and the code is dead so remove it.

Zone padding separates write-intensive fields used by page allocation, compaction and vmstats but the comments are a little misleading and need clarification.

This moves the LRU lists from the zone to the node and related data such as counters, tracing, congestion tracking and writeback tracking. Unfortunately, due to reclaim and compaction retry logic, it is necessary to account for the number of LRU pages on both zone and node logic. Most reclaim logic is based on the node counters but the retry logic uses the zone counters which do not distinguish inactive and active sizes. It would be possible to leave the LRU counters on a per-zone basis but it's a heavier calculation across multiple cache lines that is much more frequent than the retry checks. Other than the LRU counters, this is mostly a mechanical patch but note that it introduces a number of anomalies. For example, the scans are per-zone but using per-node counters. We also mark a node as congested when a zone is congested. This causes weird problems that are fixed later but is easier to review. In the event that there is excessive overhead on 32-bit systems due to the nodes being on LRU then there are two potential solutions 1. Long-term isolation of highmem pages when reclaim is lowmem When pages are skipped, they are immediately added back onto the LRU list. If lowmem reclaim persisted for long periods of time, the same highmem pages get continually scanned. The idea would be that lowmem keeps those pages on a separate list until a reclaim for highmem pages arrives that splices the highmem pages back onto the LRU. It potentially could be implemented similar to the UNEVICTABLE list. That would reduce the skip rate with the potential corner case is that highmem pages have to be scanned and reclaimed to free lowmem slab pages. 2. Linear scan lowmem pages if the initial LRU shrink fails This will break LRU ordering but may be preferable and faster during memory pressure than skipping LRU pages.

Node-based reclaim requires node-based LRUs and locking. This is a preparation patch that just moves the lru_lock to the node so later patches are easier to review. It is a mechanical change but note this patch makes contention worse because the LRU lock is hotter and direct reclaim and kswapd can contend on the same lock even when reclaiming from different zones.
