Several people have reported premature OOMs for order-2 allocations
(stack) due to OOM rework in 4.7.  In the scenario (parallel kernel
build and dd writing to two drives) many pageblocks get marked as
Unmovable and compaction free scanner struggles to isolate free pages.
Joonsoo Kim pointed out that the free scanner skips pageblocks that are
not movable to prevent filling them and forcing non-movable allocations
to fallback to other pageblocks.  Such heuristic makes sense to help
prevent long-term fragmentation, but premature OOMs are relatively more
urgent problem.  As a compromise, this patch disables the heuristic only
for the ultimate compaction priority.

The new ultimate compaction priority disables some heuristics, which may
result in excessive cost.  This is fine for non-costly orders where we
want to try hard before resulting for OOM, but might be disruptive for
costly orders which do not trigger OOM and should generally have some
fallback.  Thus, we disable the full priority for costly orders.

During reclaim/compaction loop, compaction priority can be increased by
the should_compact_retry() function, but the current code is not
optimal.  Priority is only increased when compaction_failed() is true,
which means that compaction has scanned the whole zone.  This may not
happen even after multiple attempts with a lower priority due to
parallel activity, so we might needlessly struggle on the lower
priorities and possibly run out of compaction retry attempts in the
process.

After this patch we are guaranteed at least one attempt at the highest
compaction priority even if we exhaust all retries at the lower
priorities.

Patch series "reintroduce compaction feedback for OOM decisions".

After several people reported OOM's for order-2 allocations in 4.7 due
to Michal Hocko's OOM rework, he reverted the part that considered
compaction feedback [1] in the decisions to retry reclaim/compaction.
This was to provide a fix quickly for 4.8 rc and 4.7 stable series,
while mmotm had an almost complete solution that instead improved
compaction reliability.

This series completes the mmotm solution and reintroduces the compaction
feedback into OOM decisions.  The first two patches restore the state of
mmotm before the temporary solution was merged, the last patch should be
the missing piece for reliability.  The third patch restricts the
hardened compaction to non-costly orders, since costly orders don't
result in OOMs in the first place.

[1] http://marc.info/?i=20160822093249.GA14916%40dhcp22.suse.cz%3E

This patch (of 4):

Commit 6b4e3181 ("mm, oom: prevent premature OOM killer invocation
for high order request") was intended as a quick fix of OOM regressions
for 4.8 and stable 4.7.x kernels.  For a better long-term solution, we
still want to consider compaction feedback, which should be possible
after some more improvements in the following patches.

This reverts commit 6b4e3181.

After using the offset of the swap entry as the key of the swap cache,
the page_index() becomes exactly same as page_file_index().  So the

This patch is to improve the performance of swap cache operations when
the type of the swap device is not 0.  Originally, the whole swap entry
value is used as the key of the swap cache, even though there is one
radix tree for each swap device.  If the type of the swap device is not
0, the height of the radix tree of the swap cache will be increased
unnecessary, especially on 64bit architecture.  For example, for a 1GB
swap device on the x86_64 architecture, the height of the radix tree of
the swap cache is 11.  But if the offset of the swap entry is used as
the key of the swap cache, the height of the radix tree of the swap
cache is 4.  The increased height causes unnecessary radix tree
descending and increased cache footprint.

This patch reduces the height of the radix tree of the swap cache via
using the offset of the swap entry instead of the whole swap entry value
as the key of the swap cache.  In 32 processes sequential swap out test
case on a Xeon E5 v3 system with RAM disk as swap, the lock contention
for the spinlock of the swap cache is reduced from 20.15% to 12.19%,
when the type of the swap device is 1.

Use the whole swap entry as key,

it will return 1, the value it got from device_online().

This is wrong because store_mem_state() is a device_attribute .store

mem_cgroup_count_precharge() and mem_cgroup_move_charge() both call
walk_page_range() on the range 0 to ~0UL, neither provide a pte_hole
callback, which causes the current implementation to skip non-vma
regions.  This is all fine but follow up changes would like to make
walk_page_range more generic so it is better to be explicit about which
range to traverse so let's use highest_vm_end to explicitly traverse
only user mmaped memory.

The global zero page is used to satisfy an anonymous read fault.  If
THP(Transparent HugePage) is enabled then the global huge zero page is
used.  The global huge zero page uses an atomic counter for reference
counting and is allocated/freed dynamically according to its counter
value.

CPU time spent on that counter will greatly increase if there are a lot
of processes doing anonymous read faults.  This patch proposes a way to
reduce the access to the global counter so that the CPU load can be
reduced accordingly.

To do this, a new flag of the mm_struct is introduced:
MMF_USED_HUGE_ZERO_PAGE.  With this flag, the process only need to touch
the global counter in two cases:

 1 The first time it uses the global huge zero page;
 2 The time when mm_user of its mm_struct reaches zero.

Note that right now, the huge zero page is eligible to be freed as soon
as its last use goes away.  With this patch, the page will not be
eligible to be freed until the exit of the last process from which it
was ever used.

And with the use of mm_user, the kthread is not eligible to use huge
zero page either.  Since no kthread is using huge zero page today, there
is no difference after applying this patch.  But if that is not desired,
I can change it to when mm_count reaches zero.

Case used for test on Haswell EP:

  usemem -n 72 --readonly -j 0x200000 100G

Which spawns 72 processes and each will mmap 100G anonymous space and
then do read only access to that space sequentially with a step of 2MB.

Trying to walk all of virtual memory requires architecture specific
knowledge.  On x86_64, addresses must be sign extended from bit 48,
whereas on arm64 the top VA_BITS of address space have their own set of
page tables.

clear_refs_write() calls walk_page_range() on the range 0 to ~0UL, it
provides a test_walk() callback that only expects to be walking over
VMAs.  Currently walk_pmd_range() will skip memory regions that don't
have a VMA, reporting them as a hole.

As this call only expects to walk user address space, make it walk 0 to
'highest_vm_end'.

In current kernel code, we only call node_set_state(cpu_to_node(cpu),
N_CPU) when a cpu is hot plugged.  But we do not set the node state for
N_CPU when the cpus are brought online during boot.

So this could lead to failure when we check to see if a node contains
cpu with node_state(node_id, N_CPU).

One use case is in the node_reclaime function:

        /*
         * Only run node reclaim on the local node or on nodes that do
         * not
         * have associated processors. This will favor the local
         * processor
         * over remote processors and spread off node memory allocations
         * as wide as possible.
         */
        if (node_state(pgdat->node_id, N_CPU) && pgdat->node_id !=
                numa_node_id())
                return NODE_RECLAIM_NOSCAN;

I instrumented the kernel to call this function after boot and it always
returns 0 on a x86 desktop machine until I apply the attached patch.

   int num_cpu_node(void)
   {
       int i, nr_cpu_nodes = 0;

       for_each_node(i) {
               if (node_state(i, N_CPU))
                       ++ nr_cpu_nodes;
       }

       return nr_cpu_nodes;
   }

Fix this by checking each node for online CPU when we initialize
vmstat that's responsible for maintaining node state.

When CONFIG_FS_DAX_PMD is set, DAX supports mmap() using pmd page size.
This feature relies on both mmap virtual address and FS block (i.e.
physical address) to be aligned by the pmd page size.  Users can use
mkfs options to specify FS to align block allocations.  However,
aligning mmap address requires code changes to existing applications for
providing a pmd-aligned address to mmap().

For instance, fio with "ioengine=mmap" performs I/Os with mmap() [1].
It calls mmap() with a NULL address, which needs to be changed to
provide a pmd-aligned address for testing with DAX pmd mappings.
Changing all applications that call mmap() with NULL is undesirable.

Add thp_get_unmapped_area(), which can be called by filesystem's
get_unmapped_area to align an mmap address by the pmd size for a DAX
file.  It calls the default handler, mm->get_unmapped_area(), to find a
range and then aligns it for a DAX file.

The patch is based on Matthew Wilcox's change that allows adding support
of the pud page size easily.

When one vma was with flag VM_LOCKED|VM_LOCKONFAULT (by invoking
mlock2(,MLOCK_ONFAULT)), it can again be populated with mlock() with
VM_LOCKED flag only.

There is a hole in mlock_fixup() which increase mm->locked_vm twice even
the two operations are on the same vma and both with VM_LOCKED flags.

The issue can be reproduced by following code:

  mlock2(p, 1024 * 64, MLOCK_ONFAULT); //VM_LOCKED|VM_LOCKONFAULT
  mlock(p, 1024 * 64);  //VM_LOCKED

Then check the increase VmLck field in /proc/pid/status(to 128k).

When vma is set with different vm_flags, and the new vm_flags is with
VM_LOCKED, it is not necessarily be a "new locked" vma.  This patch
corrects this bug by prevent mm->locked_vm from increment when old
vm_flags is already VM_LOCKED.

In do_mlock(), the check against locked memory limitation has a hole
which will fail following cases at step 3):

 1) User has a memory chunk from addressA with 50k, and user mem lock
    rlimit is 64k.
 2) mlock(addressA, 30k)
 3) mlock(addressA, 40k)

The 3rd step should have been allowed since the 40k request is
intersected with the previous 30k at step 2), and the 3rd step is
actually for mlock on the extra 10k memory.

This patch checks vma to caculate the actual "new" mlock size, if
necessary, and ajust the logic to fix this issue.

Since the lumpy reclaim is gone there is no source of higher order pages
if CONFIG_COMPACTION=n except for the order-0 pages reclaim which is
unreliable for that purpose to say the least.  Hitting an OOM for
!costly higher order requests is therefore all not that hard to imagine.
We are trying hard to not invoke OOM killer as much as possible but
there is simply no reliable way to detect whether more reclaim retries
make sense.

Disabling COMPACTION is not widespread but it seems that some users
might have disable the feature without realizing full consequences
(mostly along with disabling THP because compaction used to be THP
mainly thing).  This patch just adds a note if the OOM killer was
triggered by higher order request with compaction disabled.  This will
help us identifying possible misconfiguration right from the oom report
which is easier than to always keep in mind that somebody might have
disabled COMPACTION without a good reason.

File pages use a set of radix tree tags (DIRTY, TOWRITE, WRITEBACK,
etc.) to accelerate finding the pages with a specific tag in the radix
tree during inode writeback.  But for anonymous pages in the swap cache,
there is no inode writeback.  So there is no need to find the pages with
some writeback tags in the radix tree.  It is not necessary to touch
radix tree writeback tags for pages in the swap cache.

Per Rik van Riel's suggestion, a new flag AS_NO_WRITEBACK_TAGS is
introduced for address spaces which don't need to update the writeback
tags.  The flag is set for swap caches.  It may be used for DAX file
systems, etc.

With this patch, the swap out bandwidth improved 22.3% (from ~1.2GB/s to
~1.48GBps) in the vm-scalability swap-w-seq test case with 8 processes.
The test is done on a Xeon E5 v3 system.  The swap device used is a RAM
simulated PMEM (persistent memory) device.  The improvement comes from
the reduced contention on the swap cache radix tree lock.  To test
sequential swapping out, the test case uses 8 processes, which
sequentially allocate and write to the anonymous pages until RAM and
part of the swap device is used up.

Details of comparison is as follow,

Currently significant amount of memory is reserved only in kernel booted
to capture kernel dump using the fa_dump method.

Kernels compiled with CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT will initialize
only certain size memory per node.  The certain size takes into account
the dentry and inode cache sizes.  Currently the cache sizes are
calculated based on the total system memory including the reserved
memory.  However such a kernel when booting the same kernel as fadump
kernel will not be able to allocate the required amount of memory to
suffice for the dentry and inode caches.  This results in crashes like

Hence only implement arch_reserved_kernel_pages() for CONFIG_FA_DUMP
configurations.  The amount reserved will be reduced while calculating
the large caches and will avoid crashes like the below on large systems
such as 32 TB systems.

Currently arch specific code can reserve memory blocks but
alloc_large_system_hash() may not take it into consideration when sizing
the hashes.  This can lead to bigger hash than required and lead to no
available memory for other purposes.  This is specifically true for
systems with CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT enabled.

One approach to solve this problem would be to walk through the memblock
regions and calculate the available memory and base the size of hash
system on the available memory.

The other approach would be to depend on the architecture to provide the
number of pages that are reserved.  This change provides hooks to allow
the architecture to provide the required info.

oom reaper was skipped for an mm which is shared with the kernel thread
(aka use_mm()).  The primary concern was that such a kthread might want
to read from the userspace memory and see zero page as a result of the
oom reaper action.  This is no longer a problem after "mm: make sure
that kthreads will not refault oom reaped memory" because any attempt to
fault in when the MMF_UNSTABLE is set will result in SIGBUS and so the
target user should see an error.  This means that we can finally allow
oom reaper also to tasks which share their mm with kthreads.

There are only few use_mm() users in the kernel right now.  Most of them
write to the target memory but vhost driver relies on
copy_from_user/get_user from a kernel thread context.  This makes it
impossible to reap the memory of an oom victim which shares the mm with
the vhost kernel thread because it could see a zero page unexpectedly
and theoretically make an incorrect decision visible outside of the
killed task context.

To quote Michael S. Tsirkin:
: Getting an error from __get_user and friends is handled gracefully.
: Getting zero instead of a real value will cause userspace
: memory corruption.

The vhost kernel thread is bound to an open fd of the vhost device which
is not tight to the mm owner life cycle in general.  The device fd can
be inherited or passed over to another process which means that we
really have to be careful about unexpected memory corruption because
unlike for normal oom victims the result will be visible outside of the
oom victim context.

Make sure that no kthread context (users of use_mm) can ever see
corrupted data because of the oom reaper and hook into the page fault
path by checking MMF_UNSTABLE mm flag.  __oom_reap_task_mm will set the
flag before it starts unmapping the address space while the flag is
checked after the page fault has been handled.  If the flag is set then
SIGBUS is triggered so any g-u-p user will get a error code.

Regular tasks do not need this protection because all which share the mm
are killed when the mm is reaped and so the corruption will not outlive
them.

This patch shouldn't have any visible effect at this moment because the
OOM killer doesn't invoke oom reaper for tasks with mm shared with
kthreads yet.

Commit 74070542 ("oom, suspend: fix oom_reaper vs.
oom_killer_disable race") has workaround an existing race between
oom_killer_disable and oom_reaper by adding another round of
try_to_freeze_tasks after the oom killer was disabled.  This was the
easiest thing to do for a late 4.7 fix.  Let's fix it properly now.

After "oom: keep mm of the killed task available" we no longer have to
call exit_oom_victim from the oom reaper because we have stable mm
available and hide the oom_reaped mm by MMF_OOM_SKIP flag.  So let's
remove exit_oom_victim and the race described in the above commit
doesn't exist anymore if.

Unfortunately this alone is not sufficient for the oom_killer_disable
usecase because now we do not have any reliable way to reach
exit_oom_victim (the victim might get stuck on a way to exit for an
unbounded amount of time).  OOM killer can cope with that by checking mm
flags and move on to another victim but we cannot do the same for
oom_killer_disable as we would lose the guarantee of no further
interference of the victim with the rest of the system.  What we can do
instead is to cap the maximum time the oom_killer_disable waits for
victims.  The only current user of this function (pm suspend) already
has a concept of timeout for back off so we can reuse the same value
there.

Let's drop set_freezable for the oom_reaper kthread because it is no
longer needed as the reaper doesn't wake or thaw any processes.

After "oom: keep mm of the killed task available" we can safely detect
an oom victim by checking task->signal->oom_mm so we do not need the
signal_struct counter anymore so let's get rid of it.

This alone wouldn't be sufficient for nommu archs because
exit_oom_victim doesn't hide the process from the oom killer anymore.
We can, however, mark the mm with a MMF flag in __mmput.  We can reuse
MMF_OOM_REAPED and rename it to a more generic MMF_OOM_SKIP.

More over commit a79e53d8 ("x86/mm: Fix pgd_lock deadlock") was
explicit about pgd_lock not to be called from the irq context.  This
means that __mmdrop called from free_signal_struct has to be postponed
to a user context.  We already have a similar mechanism for mmput_async
so we can use it here as well.  This is safe because mm_count is pinned
by mm_users.

This fixes bug introduced by "oom: keep mm of the killed task available"

oom_reap_task has to call exit_oom_victim in order to make sure that the
oom vicim will not block the oom killer for ever.  This is, however,
opening new problems (e.g oom_killer_disable exclusion - see commit
74070542 ("oom, suspend: fix oom_reaper vs.  oom_killer_disable
race")).  exit_oom_victim should be only called from the victim's
context ideally.

One way to achieve this would be to rely on per mm_struct flags.  We
already have MMF_OOM_REAPED to hide a task from the oom killer since
"mm, oom: hide mm which is shared with kthread or global init". The
problem is that the exit path:

  do_exit
    exit_mm
      tsk->mm = NULL;
      mmput
        __mmput
      exit_oom_victim

doesn't guarantee that exit_oom_victim will get called in a bounded
amount of time.  At least exit_aio depends on IO which might get blocked
due to lack of memory and who knows what else is lurking there.

This patch takes a different approach.  We remember tsk->mm into the
signal_struct and bind it to the signal struct life time for all oom
victims.  __oom_reap_task_mm as well as oom_scan_process_thread do not
have to rely on find_lock_task_mm anymore and they will have a reliable
reference to the mm struct.  As a result all the oom specific
communication inside the OOM killer can be done via tsk->signal->oom_mm.

Increasing the signal_struct for something as unlikely as the oom killer
is far from ideal but this approach will make the code much more
reasonable and long term we even might want to move task->mm into the
signal_struct anyway.  In the next step we might want to make the oom
killer exclusion and access to memory reserves completely independent
which would be also nice.

"mm, oom_reaper: do not attempt to reap a task twice" tried to give the
OOM reaper one more chance to retry using MMF_OOM_NOT_REAPABLE flag.
But the usefulness of the flag is rather limited and actually never
shown in practice.  If the flag is set, it means that the holder of
mm->mmap_sem cannot call up_write() due to presumably being blocked at
unkillable wait waiting for other thread's memory allocation.  But since
one of threads sharing that mm will queue that mm immediately via
task_will_free_mem() shortcut (otherwise, oom_badness() will select the
same mm again due to oom_score_adj value unchanged), retrying
MMF_OOM_NOT_REAPABLE mm is unlikely helpful.

Let's always set MMF_OOM_REAPED.

Patch series "fortify oom killer even more", v2.

This patch (of 9):

__oom_reap_task() can be simplified a bit if it receives a valid mm from
oom_reap_task() which also uses that mm when __oom_reap_task() failed.
We can drop one find_lock_task_mm() call and also make the
__oom_reap_task() code flow easier to follow.  Moreover, this will make
later patch in the series easier to review.  Pinning mm's mm_count for
longer time is not really harmful because this will not pin much memory.

This patch doesn't introduce any functional change.

This is a code clean up patch without functionality changes.  The
swap_cluster_list data structure and its operations are introduced to
provide some better encapsulation for the free cluster and discard
cluster list operations.  This avoid some code duplication, improved the
code readability, and reduced the total line number.

Current code doesn't count first FIND operation after VMA cache flush
(which happen surprisingly often) artificially increasing cache hit ratio.

On my regular setup the difference is:

		Before				After
	==========================================================

	* boot, login into KDE

	vmacache_find_calls 446216	vmacache_find_calls 492741
	vmacache_find_hits 277596	vmacache_find_hits 276096

		~62.2%				~56.0%

	* rebuild kernel (no changes to code, usual config)

	vmacache_find_calls 1943007	vmacache_find_calls 2083718
	vmacache_find_hits 1246123	vmacache_find_hits 1244146

		~64.1%				~59.7%

	* rebuild kernel (full rebuild, usual config)

	vmacache_find_calls 32163155	vmacache_find_calls 33677183
	vmacache_find_hits 27889956	vmacache_find_hits 27877591

		~88.2%				~84.3%

Total: ~4% cache hit ratio.

If someone is counting _relative_ cache _miss_ ratio, misreporting is much
higher.
