We record 'the page is cache' with the PCG_CACHE bit in page_cgroup. Here, "CACHE" means anonymous user pages (and SwapCache). This doesn't include shmem. Considering callers, at charge/uncharge, the caller should know what the page is and we don't need to record it by using one bit per page. This patch removes PCG_CACHE bit and make callers of mem_cgroup_charge_statistics() to specify what the page is. About page migration: Mapping of the used page is not touched during migra tion (see page_remove_rmap) so we can rely on it and push the correct charge type down to __mem_cgroup_uncharge_common from end_migration for unused page. The force flag was misleading was abused for skipping the needless page_mapped() / PageCgroupMigration() check, as we know the unused page is no longer mapped and cleared the migration flag just a few lines up. But doing the checks is no biggie and it's not worth adding another flag just to skip them.

Commit c1e2ee2d ("memcg: replace ss->id_lock with a rwlock") has now been seen to cause the unfair behavior we should have expected from converting a spinlock to an rwlock: softlockup in cgroup_mkdir(), whose get_new_cssid() is waiting for the wlock, while there are 19 tasks using the rlock in css_get_next() to get on with their memcg workload (in an artificial test, admittedly). Yet lib/idr.c was made suitable for RCU way back: revert that commit, restoring ss->id_lock to a spinlock.

Commit e94c8a9c ("memcg: make mem_cgroup_split_huge_fixup() more efficient") removed move_lock_page_cgroup(). So we do not have to check PageTransHuge in mem_cgroup_update_page_stat() and fallback into the locked accounting because both move_account() and thp split are done with compound_lock so they cannot race. The race between update vs. move is protected by mem_cgroup_stealed. PageTransHuge pages shouldn't appear in this code path currently because we are tracking only file pages at the moment but later we are planning to track also other pages (e.g. mlocked ones).

Reset the reclaim mode in shrink_active_list() to RECLAIM_MODE_SINGLE | RECLAIM_MODE_ASYNC. (sync/async sign is used only in shrink_page_list and does not affect shrink_active_list) Currenly shrink_active_list() sometimes works in lumpy-reclaim mode, if RECLAIM_MODE_LUMPYRECLAIM is left over from an earlier shrink_inactive_list(). Meanwhile, in age_active_anon() sc->reclaim_mode is totally zero. So the current behavior is too complex and confusing, and this looks like bug. In general, shrink_active_list() populates the inactive list for the next shrink_inactive_list(). Lumpy shring_inactive_list() isolates pages around the chosen one from both the active and inactive lists. So, there is no reason for lumpy isolation in shrink_active_list().

由 David Gibson 提交于
hugetlbfs_{get,put}_quota() are badly named. They don't interact with the general quota handling code, and they don't much resemble its behaviour. Rather than being about maintaining limits on on-disk block usage by particular users, they are instead about maintaining limits on in-memory page usage (including anonymous MAP_PRIVATE copied-on-write pages) associated with a particular hugetlbfs filesystem instance. Worse, they work by having callbacks to the hugetlbfs filesystem code from the low-level page handling code, in particular from free_huge_page(). This is a layering violation of itself, but more importantly, if the kernel does a get_user_pages() on hugepages (which can happen from KVM amongst others), then the free_huge_page() can be delayed until after the associated inode has already been freed. If an unmount occurs at the wrong time, even the hugetlbfs superblock where the "quota" limits are stored may have been freed. Andrew Barry proposed a patch to fix this by having hugepages, instead of storing a pointer to their address_space and reaching the superblock from there, had the hugepages store pointers directly to the superblock, bumping the reference count as appropriate to avoid it being freed. Andrew Morton rejected that version, however, on the grounds that it made the existing layering violation worse. This is a reworked version of Andrew's patch, which removes the extra, and some of the existing, layering violation. It works by introducing the concept of a hugepage "subpool" at the lower hugepage mm layer - that is a finite logical pool of hugepages to allocate from. hugetlbfs now creates a subpool for each filesystem instance with a page limit set, and a pointer to the subpool gets added to each allocated hugepage, instead of the address_space pointer used now. The subpool has its own lifetime and is only freed once all pages in it _and_ all other references to it (i.e. superblocks) are gone. subpools are optional - a NULL subpool pointer is taken by the code to mean that no subpool limits are in effect. Previous discussion of this bug found in: "Fix refcounting in hugetlbfs quota handling.". See: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/11/28 or http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=126928970510627&w=1 v2: Fixed a bug spotted by Hillf Danton, and removed the extra parameter to alloc_huge_page() - since it already takes the vma, it is not necessary.

Make a couple of small cleanups to linux/include/hugetlb.h. The set_file_hugepages() function, which was not used anywhere is removed, and the hugetlbfs_config and hugetlbfs_inode_info structures with its HUGETLBFS_I helper function are moved into inode.c, the only place they were used. These structures are really linked to the hugetlbfs filesystem specifically not to hugepage mm handling in general, so they belong in the filesystem code not in a generally available header. It would be nice to move the hugetlbfs_sb_info (superblock) structure in there as well, but it's currently needed in a number of places via the hstate_vma() and hstate_inode().

Commit c0ff7453 ("cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when changing cpuset's mems") wins a super prize for the largest number of memory barriers entered into fast paths for one commit. [get|put]_mems_allowed is incredibly heavy with pairs of full memory barriers inserted into a number of hot paths. This was detected while investigating at large page allocator slowdown introduced some time after 2.6.32. The largest portion of this overhead was shown by oprofile to be at an mfence introduced by this commit into the page allocator hot path. For extra style points, the commit introduced the use of yield() in an implementation of what looks like a spinning mutex. This patch replaces the full memory barriers on both read and write sides with a sequence counter with just read barriers on the fast path side. This is much cheaper on some architectures, including x86. The main bulk of the patch is the retry logic if the nodemask changes in a manner that can cause a false failure. While updating the nodemask, a check is made to see if a false failure is a risk. If it is, the sequence number gets bumped and parallel allocators will briefly stall while the nodemask update takes place. In a page fault test microbenchmark, oprofile samples from __alloc_pages_nodemask went from 4.53% of all samples to 1.15%.

The actual number of page faults is noticeably improved. For benchmarks like kernel builds, the overall benefit is marginal but the system CPU time is slightly reduced. To test the actual bug the commit fixed I opened two terminals. The first ran within a cpuset and continually ran a small program that faulted 100M of anonymous data. In a second window, the nodemask of the cpuset was continually randomised in a loop. Without the commit, the program would fail every so often (usually within 10 seconds) and obviously with the commit everything worked fine. With this patch applied, it also worked fine so the fix should be functionally equivalent.

It's solely caused by lots of congestion waits in throttle_vm_writeout(): gnome-system-mo-4201 553.073384: congestion_wait: throttle_vm_writeout+0x70/0x7f shrink_mem_cgroup_zone+0x48f/0x4a1 gnome-system-mo-4201 553.073386: writeback_congestion_wait: usec_timeout=100000 usec_delayed=100000 gtali-4237 553.080377: congestion_wait: throttle_vm_writeout+0x70/0x7f shrink_mem_cgroup_zone+0x48f/0x4a1 gtali-4237 553.080378: writeback_congestion_wait: usec_timeout=100000 usec_delayed=100000 Xorg-3483 553.103375: congestion_wait: throttle_vm_writeout+0x70/0x7f shrink_mem_cgroup_zone+0x48f/0x4a1 Xorg-3483 553.103377: writeback_congestion_wait: usec_timeout=100000 usec_delayed=100000 The root cause is, the dirty threshold is knocked down a lot by the memory hog task. Fixed by using global_dirty_limit which decreases gradually on such events and can guarantee we stay above (the also decreasing) nr_dirty in the progress of following down to the new dirty threshold.

There is not much point in skipping zones during allocation based on the dirty usage which they'll never contribute to.

Taking i_mutex in hugetlbfs_read() can result in deadlock with mmap as explained below Thread A: read() on hugetlbfs hugetlbfs_read() called i_mutex grabbed hugetlbfs_read_actor() called __copy_to_user() called page fault is triggered Thread B, sharing address space with A: mmap() the same file ->mmap_sem is grabbed on task_B->mm->mmap_sem hugetlbfs_file_mmap() is called attempt to grab ->i_mutex and block waiting for A to give it up Thread A: pagefault handled blocked on attempt to grab task_A->mm->mmap_sem, which happens to be the same thing as task_B->mm->mmap_sem. Block waiting for B to give it up. AFAIU the i_mutex locking was added to hugetlbfs_read() as per http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0707.2/3066.html to take care of the race between truncate and read. This patch fixes this by looking at page->mapping under lock_page() (find_lock_page()) to ensure that the inode didn't get truncated in the range during a parallel read. Ideally we can extend the patch to make sure we don't increase i_size in mmap. But that will break userspace, because applications will now have to use truncate(2) to increase i_size in hugetlbfs.

While testing AMS (Active Memory Sharing) / CMO (Cooperative Memory Overcommit) on powerpc, we tripped the following: kernel BUG at mm/bootmem.c:483! cpu 0x0: Vector: 700 (Program Check) at [c000000000c03940] pc: c000000000a62bd8: .alloc_bootmem_core+0x90/0x39c lr: c000000000a64bcc: .sparse_early_usemaps_alloc_node+0x84/0x29c sp: c000000000c03bc0 msr: 8000000000021032 current = 0xc000000000b0cce0 paca = 0xc000000001d80000 pid = 0, comm = swapper kernel BUG at mm/bootmem.c:483! enter ? for help [c000000000c03c80] c000000000a64bcc .sparse_early_usemaps_alloc_node+0x84/0x29c [c000000000c03d50] c000000000a64f10 .sparse_init+0x12c/0x28c [c000000000c03e20] c000000000a474f4 .setup_arch+0x20c/0x294 [c000000000c03ee0] c000000000a4079c .start_kernel+0xb4/0x460 [c000000000c03f90] c000000000009670 .start_here_common+0x1c/0x2c This is BUG_ON(limit && goal + size > limit); and after some debugging, it seems that goal = 0x7ffff000000 limit = 0x80000000000 and sparse_early_usemaps_alloc_node -> sparse_early_usemaps_alloc_pgdat_section calls return alloc_bootmem_section(usemap_size() * count, section_nr); This is on a system with 8TB available via the AMS pool, and as a quirk of AMS in firmware, all of that memory shows up in node 0. So, we end up with an allocation that will fail the goal/limit constraints. In theory, we could "fall-back" to alloc_bootmem_node() in sparse_early_usemaps_alloc_node(), but since we actually have HOTREMOVE defined, we'll BUG_ON() instead. A simple solution appears to be to unconditionally remove the limit condition in alloc_bootmem_section, meaning allocations are allowed to cross section boundaries (necessary for systems of this size). Johannes Weiner pointed out that if alloc_bootmem_section() no longer guarantees section-locality, we need check_usemap_section_nr() to print possible cross-dependencies between node descriptors and the usemaps allocated through it. That makes the two loops in sparse_early_usemaps_alloc_node() identical, so re-factor the code a bit.

This cpu hotplug hook was accidentally removed in commit 00a62ce9 ("mm: fix Committed_AS underflow on large NR_CPUS environment") The visible effect of this accident: some pages are borrowed in per-cpu page-vectors. Truncate can deal with it, but these pages cannot be reused while this cpu is offline. So this is like a temporary memory leak.

Migration functions perform the rcu_read_unlock too early. As a result the task pointed to may change from under us. This can result in an oops, as reported by Dave Hansen in https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/23/302. The following patch extend the period of the rcu_read_lock until after the permissions checks are done. We also take a refcount so that the task reference is stable when calling security check functions and performing cpuset node validation (which takes a mutex). The refcount is dropped before actual page migration occurs so there is no change to the refcounts held during page migration. Also move the determination of the mm of the task struct to immediately before the do_migrate*() calls so that it is clear that we switch from handling the task during permission checks to the mm for the actual migration. Since the determination is only done once and we then no longer use the task_struct we can be sure that we operate on a specific address space that will not change from under us.

Andrea Arcangeli pointed out to me that a check in __memory_failure() which was intended to prevent THP tail pages from being checked for the absence of the PG_lru flag (something that is always the case), was also preventing THP head pages from being checked. A THP head page could actually benefit from the call to shake_page() by ending up being put back to a LRU, provided it had been waiting in a pagevec array. Andrea suggested that the "!PageTransCompound(p)" in the if-statement should be replaced by a "!PageTransTail(p)", thus allowing THP head pages to be checked and possibly shaken.

The oom killer chooses not to kill a thread if: - an eligible thread has already been oom killed and has yet to exit, and - an eligible thread is exiting but has yet to free all its memory and is not the thread attempting to currently allocate memory. SysRq+F manually invokes the global oom killer to kill a memory-hogging task. This is normally done as a last resort to free memory when no progress is being made or to test the oom killer itself. For both uses, we always want to kill a thread and never defer. This patch causes SysRq+F to always kill an eligible thread and can be used to force a kill even if another oom killed thread has failed to exit.
