      mm: thp: refix false positive BUG in page_move_anon_rmap() · 5a49973d
      由 Hugh Dickins 提交于 
      The VM_BUG_ON_PAGE in page_move_anon_rmap() is more trouble than it's
worth: the syzkaller fuzzer hit it again.  It's still wrong for some THP
cases, because linear_page_index() was never intended to apply to
addresses before the start of a vma.

That's easily fixed with a signed long cast inside linear_page_index();
and Dmitry has tested such a patch, to verify the false positive.  But
why extend linear_page_index() just for this case? when the avoidance in
page_move_anon_rmap() has already grown ugly, and there's no reason for
the check at all (nothing else there is using address or index).

Remove address arg from page_move_anon_rmap(), remove VM_BUG_ON_PAGE,
remove CONFIG_DEBUG_VM PageTransHuge adjustment.

And one more thing: should the compound_head(page) be done inside or
outside page_move_anon_rmap()? It's usually pushed down to the lowest
level nowadays (and mm/memory.c shows no other explicit use of it), so I
think it's better done in page_move_anon_rmap() than by caller.

      mm/hugetlb: clear compound_mapcount when freeing gigantic pages · c8cc708a
      由 Gerald Schaefer 提交于 
      While working on s390 support for gigantic hugepages I ran into the
following "Bad page state" warning when freeing gigantic pages:

  BUG: Bad page state in process bash  pfn:580001
  page:000003d116000040 count:0 mapcount:0 mapping:ffffffff00000000 index:0x0
  flags: 0x7fffc0000000000()
  page dumped because: non-NULL mapping

This is because page->compound_mapcount, which is part of a union with
page->mapping, is initialized with -1 in prep_compound_gigantic_page(),
and not cleared again during destroy_compound_gigantic_page().  Fix this
by clearing the compound_mapcount in destroy_compound_gigantic_page()
before clearing compound_head.

Interestingly enough, the warning will not show up on x86_64, although
this should not be architecture specific.  Apparently there is an
endianness issue, combined with the fact that the union contains both a
64 bit ->mapping pointer and a 32 bit atomic_t ->compound_mapcount as
members.  The resulting bogus page->mapping on x86_64 therefore contains
00000000ffffffff instead of ffffffff00000000 on s390, which will falsely
trigger the PageAnon() check in free_pages_prepare() because
page->mapping & PAGE_MAPPING_ANON is true on little-endian architectures
like x86_64 in this case (the page is not compound anymore,
->compound_head was already cleared before).  As a result, page->mapping
will be cleared before doing the checks in free_pages_check().

Not sure if the bogus "PageAnon() returning true" on x86_64 for the
first tail page of a gigantic page (at this stage) has other theoretical
implications, but they would also be fixed with this patch.

      hugetlb: fix nr_pmds accounting with shared page tables · c17b1f42
      由 Kirill A. Shutemov 提交于 
      We account HugeTLB's shared page table to all processes who share it.
The accounting happens during huge_pmd_share().

If somebody populates pud entry under us, we should decrease pagetable's
refcount and decrease nr_pmds of the process.

By mistake, I increase nr_pmds again in this case.  :-/ It will lead to
"BUG: non-zero nr_pmds on freeing mm: 2" on process' exit.

Let's fix this by increasing nr_pmds only when we're sure that the page
table will be used.

      mm/hugetlb: fix huge page reserve accounting for private mappings · 67961f9d
      由 Mike Kravetz 提交于 
      When creating a private mapping of a hugetlbfs file, it is possible to
unmap pages via ftruncate or fallocate hole punch.  If subsequent faults
repopulate these mappings, the reserve counts will go negative.  This is
because the code currently assumes all faults to private mappings will
consume reserves.  The problem can be recreated as follows:

 - mmap(MAP_PRIVATE) a file in hugetlbfs filesystem
 - write fault in pages in the mapping
 - fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE) some pages in the mapping
 - write fault in pages in the hole

This will result in negative huge page reserve counts and negative
subpool usage counts for the hugetlbfs.  Note that this can also be
recreated with ftruncate, but fallocate is more straight forward.

This patch modifies the routines vma_needs_reserves and vma_has_reserves
to examine the reserve map associated with private mappings similar to
that for shared mappings.  However, the reserve map semantics for
private and shared mappings are very different.  This results in subtly
different code that is explained in the comments.

      /dev/dax, core: file operations and dax-mmap · dee41079
      由 Dan Williams 提交于 
      The "Device DAX" core enables dax mappings of performance / feature
differentiated memory.  An open mapping or file handle keeps the backing
struct device live, but new mappings are only possible while the device
is enabled.   Faults are handled under rcu_read_lock to synchronize
with the enabled state of the device.

Similar to the filesystem-dax case the backing memory may optionally
have struct page entries.  However, unlike fs-dax there is no support
for private mappings, or mappings that are not backed by media (see
use of zero-page in fs-dax).

Mappings are always guaranteed to match the alignment of the dax_region.
If the dax_region is configured to have a 2MB alignment, all mappings
are guaranteed to be backed by a pmd entry.  Contrast this determinism
with the fs-dax case where pmd mappings are opportunistic.  If userspace
attempts to force a misaligned mapping, the driver will fail the mmap
attempt.  See dax_dev_check_vma() for other scenarios that are rejected,
like MAP_PRIVATE mappings.

      mm/hugetlb: add same zone check in pfn_range_valid_gigantic() · f44b2dda
      由 Joonsoo Kim 提交于 
      This patchset deals with some problematic sites that iterate pfn ranges.

There is a system thats node's pfns are overlapped as follows:

  -----pfn-------->
  N0 N1 N2 N0 N1 N2

Therefore, we need to take care of this overlapping when iterating pfn
range.

I audit many iterating sites that uses pfn_valid(), pfn_valid_within(),
zone_start_pfn and etc.  and others looks safe to me.  This is a
preparation step for a new CMA implementation, ZONE_CMA
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/2/12/95), because it would be easily
overlapped with other zones.  But, zone overlap check is also needed for
the general case so I send it separately.

This patch (of 5):

alloc_gigantic_page() uses alloc_contig_range() and this requires that
the requested range is in a single zone.  To satisfy this requirement,
add this check to pfn_range_valid_gigantic().

      mm/hugetlb: introduce hugetlb_bad_size() · 9fee021d
      由 Vaishali Thakkar 提交于 
      When any unsupported hugepage size is specified, 'hugepagesz=' and
'hugepages=' should be ignored during command line parsing until any
supported hugepage size is found.  But currently incorrect number of
hugepages are allocated when unsupported size is specified as it fails
to ignore the 'hugepages=' command.

Test case:

Note that this is specific to x86 architecture.

Boot the kernel with command line option 'hugepagesz=256M hugepages=X'.
After boot, dmesg output shows that X number of hugepages of the size 2M
is pre-allocated instead of 0.

So, to handle such command line options, introduce new routine
hugetlb_bad_size.  The routine hugetlb_bad_size sets the global variable
parsed_valid_hugepagesz.  We are using parsed_valid_hugepagesz to save
the state when unsupported hugepagesize is found so that we can ignore
the 'hugepages=' parameters after that and then reset the variable when
supported hugepage size is found.

The routine hugetlb_bad_size can be called while setting 'hugepagesz='
parameter in an architecture specific code.

      mm/hugetlb: optimize minimum size (min_size) accounting · 09a95e29
      由 Mike Kravetz 提交于 
      It was observed that minimum size accounting associated with the
hugetlbfs min_size mount option may not perform optimally and as
expected.  As huge pages/reservations are released from the filesystem
and given back to the global pools, they are reserved for subsequent
filesystem use as long as the subpool reserved count is less than
subpool minimum size.  It does not take into account used pages within
the filesystem.  The filesystem size limits are not exceeded and this is
technically not a bug.  However, better behavior would be to wait for
the number of used pages/reservations associated with the filesystem to
drop below the minimum size before taking reservations to satisfy
minimum size.

An optimization is also made to the hugepage_subpool_get_pages() routine
which is called when pages/reservations are allocated.  This does not
change behavior, but simply avoids the accounting if all reservations
have already been taken (subpool reserved count == 0).

      mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros · 09cbfeaf
      由 Kirill A. Shutemov 提交于 
      PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

This promise never materialized.  And unlikely will.

We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE.  And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.

Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.

Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special.  They are
not.

The changes are pretty straight-forward:

 - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;

 - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;

 - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};

 - page_cache_get() -> get_page();

 - page_cache_release() -> put_page();

This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below.  For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.

The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.

There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach.  I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch.  Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

      The warning message "killed due to inadequate hugepage pool" simply
indicates that SIGBUS was sent, not that the process was forcibly killed.
If the process has a signal handler installed does not fix the problem,
this message can rapidly spam the kernel log.

On my amd64 dev machine that does not have hugepages configured, I can
reproduce the repeated warnings easily by setting vm.nr_hugepages=2 (i.e.,
4 megabytes of huge pages) and running something that sets a signal
handler and forks, like

      mm/hugetlb.c: fix incorrect proc nr_hugepages value · f8b74815
      由 Vaishali Thakkar 提交于 
      Currently incorrect default hugepage pool size is reported by proc
nr_hugepages when number of pages for the default huge page size is
specified twice.

When multiple huge page sizes are supported, /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
indicates the current number of pre-allocated huge pages of the default
size.  Basically /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages displays default_hstate->
max_huge_pages and after boot time pre-allocation, max_huge_pages should
equal the number of pre-allocated pages (nr_hugepages).

Test case:

Note that this is specific to x86 architecture.

Boot the kernel with command line option 'default_hugepagesz=1G
hugepages=X hugepagesz=2M hugepages=Y hugepagesz=1G hugepages=Z'.  After
boot, 'cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages' and 'sysctl -a | grep hugepages'
returns the value X.  However, dmesg output shows that Z huge pages were
pre-allocated.

So, the root cause of the problem here is that the global variable
default_hstate_max_huge_pages is set if a default huge page size is
specified (directly or indirectly) on the command line.  After the command
line processing in hugetlb_init, if default_hstate_max_huge_pages is set,
the value is assigned to default_hstae.max_huge_pages.  However,
default_hstate.max_huge_pages may have already been set based on the
number of pre-allocated huge pages of default_hstate size.

The solution to this problem is if hstate->max_huge_pages is already set
then it should not set as a result of global max_huge_pages value.
Basically if the value of the variable hugepages is set multiple times on
a command line for a specific supported hugepagesize then proc layer
should consider the last specified value.

      mm, hugetlb: don't require CMA for runtime gigantic pages · 080fe206
      由 Vlastimil Babka 提交于 
      Commit 944d9fec ("hugetlb: add support for gigantic page allocation
at runtime") has added the runtime gigantic page allocation via
alloc_contig_range(), making this support available only when CONFIG_CMA
is enabled.  Because it doesn't depend on MIGRATE_CMA pageblocks and the
associated infrastructure, it is possible with few simple adjustments to
require only CONFIG_MEMORY_ISOLATION instead of full CONFIG_CMA.

After this patch, alloc_contig_range() and related functions are
available and used for gigantic pages with just CONFIG_MEMORY_ISOLATION
enabled.  Note CONFIG_CMA selects CONFIG_MEMORY_ISOLATION.  This allows
supporting runtime gigantic pages without the CMA-specific checks in
page allocator fastpaths.
