      sched/topology: Improve load balancing on AMD EPYC systems · a55c7454
      Matt Fleming 提交于
      SD_BALANCE_{FORK,EXEC} and SD_WAKE_AFFINE are stripped in sd_init()
      for any sched domains with a NUMA distance greater than 2 hops
      (RECLAIM_DISTANCE). The idea being that it's expensive to balance
      across domains that far apart.
      
      However, as is rather unfortunately explained in:
      
        commit 32e45ff4 ("mm: increase RECLAIM_DISTANCE to 30")
      
      the value for RECLAIM_DISTANCE is based on node distance tables from
      2011-era hardware.
      
      Current AMD EPYC machines have the following NUMA node distances:
      
       node distances:
       node   0   1   2   3   4   5   6   7
         0:  10  16  16  16  32  32  32  32
         1:  16  10  16  16  32  32  32  32
         2:  16  16  10  16  32  32  32  32
         3:  16  16  16  10  32  32  32  32
         4:  32  32  32  32  10  16  16  16
         5:  32  32  32  32  16  10  16  16
         6:  32  32  32  32  16  16  10  16
         7:  32  32  32  32  16  16  16  10
      
      where 2 hops is 32.
      
      The result is that the scheduler fails to load balance properly across
      NUMA nodes on different sockets -- 2 hops apart.
      
      For example, pinning 16 busy threads to NUMA nodes 0 (CPUs 0-7) and 4
      (CPUs 32-39) like so,
      
        $ numactl -C 0-7,32-39 ./spinner 16
      
      causes all threads to fork and remain on node 0 until the active
      balancer kicks in after a few seconds and forcibly moves some threads
      to node 4.
      
      Override node_reclaim_distance for AMD Zen.

      coredump: fix race condition between collapse_huge_page() and core dumping · 59ea6d06
      Andrea Arcangeli 提交于
      When fixing the race conditions between the coredump and the mmap_sem
      holders outside the context of the process, we focused on
      mmget_not_zero()/get_task_mm() callers in 04f5866e ("coredump: fix
      race condition between mmget_not_zero()/get_task_mm() and core
      dumping"), but those aren't the only cases where the mmap_sem can be
      taken outside of the context of the process as Michal Hocko noticed
      while backporting that commit to older -stable kernels.
      
      If mmgrab() is called in the context of the process, but then the
      mm_count reference is transferred outside the context of the process,
      that can also be a problem if the mmap_sem has to be taken for writing
      through that mm_count reference.
      
      khugepaged registration calls mmgrab() in the context of the process,
      but the mmap_sem for writing is taken later in the context of the
      khugepaged kernel thread.
      
      collapse_huge_page() after taking the mmap_sem for writing doesn't
      modify any vma, so it's not obvious that it could cause a problem to the
      coredump, but it happens to modify the pmd in a way that breaks an
      invariant that pmd_trans_huge_lock() relies upon.  collapse_huge_page()
      needs the mmap_sem for writing just to block concurrent page faults that
      call pmd_trans_huge_lock().
      
      Specifically the invariant that "!pmd_trans_huge()" cannot become a
      "pmd_trans_huge()" doesn't hold while collapse_huge_page() runs.
      
      The coredump will call __get_user_pages() without mmap_sem for reading,
      which eventually can invoke a lockless page fault which will need a
      functional pmd_trans_huge_lock().
      
      So collapse_huge_page() needs to use mmget_still_valid() to check it's
      not running concurrently with the coredump...  as long as the coredump
      can invoke page faults without holding the mmap_sem for reading.
      
      This has "Fixes: khugepaged" to facilitate backporting, but in my view
      it's more a bug in the coredump code that will eventually have to be
      rewritten to stop invoking page faults without the mmap_sem for reading.
      So the long term plan is still to drop all mmget_still_valid().

      lockdep_assert_held() is better suited to checking locking requirements,
      since it only checks if the current thread holds the lock regardless of
      whether someone else does. This is also a step towards possibly removing

      xarray: Replace exceptional entries · 3159f943
      Matthew Wilcox 提交于
      Introduce xarray value entries and tagged pointers to replace radix
      tree exceptional entries.  This is a slight change in encoding to allow
      the use of an extra bit (we can now store BITS_PER_LONG - 1 bits in a
      value entry).  It is also a change in emphasis; exceptional entries are
      intimidating and different.  As the comment explains, you can choose
      to store values or pointers in the xarray and they are both first-class
      citizens.

      mm, thp: Do not make pmd/pud dirty without a reason · 152e93af
      Kirill A. Shutemov 提交于
      Currently we make page table entries dirty all the time regardless of
      access type and don't even consider if the mapping is write-protected.
      The reasoning is that we don't really need dirty tracking on THP and
      making the entry dirty upfront may save some time on first write to the
      page.
      
      Unfortunately, such approach may result in false-positive
      can_follow_write_pmd() for huge zero page or read-only shmem file.
      
      Let's only make page dirty only if we about to write to the page anyway
      (as we do for small pages).
      
      I've restructured the code to make entry dirty inside
      maybe_p[mu]d_mkwrite(). It also takes into account if the vma is
      write-protected.

      License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license · b2441318
      Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于
      Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
      makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
      
      By default all files without license information are under the default
      license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
      
      Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
      SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
      shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
      
      This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
      Philippe Ombredanne.
      
      How this work was done:
      
      Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
      the use cases:
       - file had no licensing information it it.
       - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
       - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
      
      Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
      where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
      had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
      
      The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
      a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
      output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
      tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
      base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
      
      The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
      assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
      results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
      to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
      immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
      Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
       - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
       - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
         lines of source
       - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
         lines).
      
      All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
      
      The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
      identifiers to apply.
      
       - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
         considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
         COPYING file license applied.
      
         For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|-------
         GPL-2.0                                              11139
      
         and resulted in the first patch in this series.
      
         If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
         Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|-------
         GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930
      
         and resulted in the second patch in this series.
      
       - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
         of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
         any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
         it (per prior point).  Results summary:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|------

         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1
      
         and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
      
       - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
         the concluded license(s).
      
       - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
         license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
         licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
      
       - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
         resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
         which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
      
       - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
         confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
       - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
         the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
         in time.
      
      In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
      spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
      source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
      by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
      Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
      FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
      disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
      Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
      they are related.
      
      Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
      for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
      files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
      in about 15000 files.
      
      In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
      copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
      correct identifier.
      
      Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
      inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
      version early this week with:
       - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
         license ids and scores
       - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
         files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
       - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
         was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
         SPDX license was correct
      
      This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
      worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
      different types of files to be modified.
      
      These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
      parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
      format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
      based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
      distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
      comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
      generate the patches.
