      ext4: Use tracepoints for mb_history trace file · 296c355c
      Theodore Ts'o 提交于
      The /proc/fs/ext4/<dev>/mb_history was maintained manually, and had a
      number of problems: it required a largish amount of memory to be
      allocated for each ext4 filesystem, and the s_mb_history_lock
      introduced a CPU contention problem.  
      
      By ripping out the mb_history code and replacing it with ftrace
      tracepoints, and we get more functionality: timestamps, event
      filtering, the ability to correlate mballoc history with other ext4
      tracepoints, etc.

      procfs: provide stack information for threads · d899bf7b
      Stefani Seibold 提交于
      A patch to give a better overview of the userland application stack usage,
      especially for embedded linux.
      
      Currently you are only able to dump the main process/thread stack usage
      which is showed in /proc/pid/status by the "VmStk" Value.  But you get no
      information about the consumed stack memory of the the threads.
      
      There is an enhancement in the /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/*maps and which marks
      the vm mapping where the thread stack pointer reside with "[thread stack
      xxxxxxxx]".  xxxxxxxx is the maximum size of stack.  This is a value
      information, because libpthread doesn't set the start of the stack to the
      top of the mapped area, depending of the pthread usage.
      
      A sample output of /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/maps looks like:
      
      08048000-08049000 r-xp 00000000 03:00 8312       /opt/z

      Also there is a new entry "stack usage" in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/status
      which will you give the current stack usage in kb.
      
      A sample output of /proc/self/status looks like:
      
      Name:	cat
      State:	R (running)
      Tgid:	507
      Pid:	507
      .
      .
      .
      CapBnd:	fffffffffffffeff
      voluntary_ctxt_switches:	0
      nonvoluntary_ctxt_switches:	0
      Stack usage:	12 kB
      
      I also fixed stack base address in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/stat to the base
      address of the associated thread stack and not the one of the main
      process.  This makes more sense.

      HWPOISON: Define a new error_remove_page address space op for async truncation · 25718736
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      Truncating metadata pages is not safe right now before
      we haven't audited all file systems.
      
      To enable truncation only for data address space define
      a new address_space callback error_remove_page.
      
      This is used for memory_failure.c memory error handling.
      
      This can be then set to truncate_inode_page()
      
      This patch just defines the new operation and adds documentation.

      mm: revert "oom: move oom_adj value" · 0753ba01
      KOSAKI Motohiro 提交于
      The commit 2ff05b2b (oom: move oom_adj value) moveed the oom_adj value to
      the mm_struct.  It was a very good first step for sanitize OOM.
      
      However Paul Menage reported the commit makes regression to his job
      scheduler.  Current OOM logic can kill OOM_DISABLED process.
      
      Why? His program has the code of similar to the following.
      
      	...
      	set_oom_adj(OOM_DISABLE); /* The job scheduler never killed by oom */
      	...
      	if (vfork() == 0) {
      		set_oom_adj(0); /* Invoked child can be killed */
      		execve("foo-bar-cmd");
      	}
      	....
      
      vfork() parent and child are shared the same mm_struct.  then above
      set_oom_adj(0) doesn't only change oom_adj for vfork() child, it's also
      change oom_adj for vfork() parent.  Then, vfork() parent (job scheduler)
      lost OOM immune and it was killed.
      
      Actually, fork-setting-exec idiom is very frequently used in userland program.
      We must not break this assumption.
      
      Then, this patch revert commit 2ff05b2b and related commit.

      oom: move oom_adj value from task_struct to mm_struct · 2ff05b2b
      David Rientjes 提交于
      The per-task oom_adj value is a characteristic of its mm more than the
      task itself since it's not possible to oom kill any thread that shares the
      mm.  If a task were to be killed while attached to an mm that could not be
      freed because another thread were set to OOM_DISABLE, it would have
      needlessly been terminated since there is no potential for future memory
      freeing.
      
      This patch moves oomkilladj (now more appropriately named oom_adj) from
      struct task_struct to struct mm_struct.  This requires task_lock() on a
      task to check its oom_adj value to protect against exec, but it's already
      necessary to take the lock when dereferencing the mm to find the total VM
      size for the badness heuristic.
      
      This fixes a livelock if the oom killer chooses a task and another thread
      sharing the same memory has an oom_adj value of OOM_DISABLE.  This occurs
      because oom_kill_task() repeatedly returns 1 and refuses to kill the
      chosen task while select_bad_process() will repeatedly choose the same
      task during the next retry.
      
      Taking task_lock() in select_bad_process() to check for OOM_DISABLE and in
      oom_kill_task() to check for threads sharing the same memory will be
      removed in the next patch in this series where it will no longer be
      necessary.
      
      Writing to /proc/pid/oom_adj for a kthread will now return -EINVAL since
      these threads are immune from oom killing already.  They simply report an
      oom_adj value of OOM_DISABLE.
