Many architectures provide an asm/fixmap.h which defines support for compile-time 'special' virtual mappings which need to be made before paging_init() has run. This support is also used for early ioremap on x86. Much of this support is identical across the architectures. This patch consolidates all of the common bits into asm-generic/fixmap.h which is intended to be included from arch/*/include/asm/fixmap.h.

Now all 64-bit architectures have been converted to int-ll64.h, we can remove int-l64.h in kernelspace. For backwards compatibility, alpha, ia64, mips64, and powerpc64 still use int-l64.h in userspace. This is the (reworked for UAPI) non-documentation part of more than two year old "asm/types.h: All architectures use int-ll64.h in kernelspace" (https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/13/104) Since <asm/types.h> (from include/uapi/asm-generic/types.h) is used for both kernel and user space, include/asm-generic/int-ll64.h cannot just become include/asm-generic/types.h, as Arnd suggested.

The VM_SOFTDIRTY bit affects vma merge routine: if two VMAs has all bits in vm_flags matched except dirty bit the kernel can't longer merge them and this forces the kernel to generate new VMAs instead. It finally may lead to the situation when userspace application reaches vm.max_map_count limit and get crashed in worse case | (gimp:11768): GLib-ERROR **: gmem.c:110: failed to allocate 4096 bytes | | (file-tiff-load:12038): LibGimpBase-WARNING **: file-tiff-load: gimp_wire_read(): error | xinit: connection to X server lost | | waiting for X server to shut down | /usr/lib64/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/file-tiff-load terminated: Hangup | /usr/lib64/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/script-fu terminated: Hangup | /usr/lib64/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/script-fu terminated: Hangup https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67651 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=719619#c0 Initial problem came from missed VM_SOFTDIRTY in do_brk() routine but even if we would set up VM_SOFTDIRTY here, there is still a way to prevent VMAs from merging: one can call | echo 4 > /proc/$PID/clear_refs and clear all VM_SOFTDIRTY over all VMAs presented in memory map, then new do_brk() will try to extend old VMA and finds that dirty bit doesn't match thus new VMA will be generated. As discussed with Pavel, the right approach should be to ignore VM_SOFTDIRTY bit when we're trying to merge VMAs and if merge successed we mark extended VMA with dirty bit where needed.

Commit 19f39402 ("memcg: simplify mem_cgroup_iter") has reorganized mem_cgroup_iter code in order to simplify it. A part of that change was dropping an optimization which didn't call css_tryget on the root of the walked tree. The patch however didn't change the css_put part in mem_cgroup_iter which excludes root. This wasn't an issue at the time because __mem_cgroup_iter_next bailed out for root early without taking a reference as cgroup iterators (css_next_descendant_pre) didn't visit root themselves. Nevertheless cgroup iterators have been reworked to visit root by commit bd8815a6 ("cgroup: make css_for_each_descendant() and friends include the origin css in the iteration") when the root bypass have been dropped in __mem_cgroup_iter_next. This means that css_put is not called for root and so css along with mem_cgroup and other cgroup internal object tied by css lifetime are never freed. Fix the issue by reintroducing root check in __mem_cgroup_iter_next and do not take css reference for it. This reference counting magic protects us also from another issue, an endless loop reported by Hugh Dickins when reclaim races with root removal and css_tryget called by iterator internally would fail. There would be no other nodes to visit so __mem_cgroup_iter_next would return NULL and mem_cgroup_iter would interpret it as "start looping from root again" and so mem_cgroup_iter would loop forever internally.

This might happen when the reclaim races with the memcg removal. shrink_zone [rmdir root] mem_cgroup_iter(root, NULL, reclaim) // prev = NULL rcu_read_lock() mem_cgroup_iter_load last_visited = iter->last_visited // gets root || NULL css_tryget(last_visited) // failed last_visited = NULL [1] memcg = root = __mem_cgroup_iter_next(root, NULL) mem_cgroup_iter_update iter->last_visited = root; reclaim->generation = iter->generation mem_cgroup_iter(root, root, reclaim) // prev = root rcu_read_lock mem_cgroup_iter_load last_visited = iter->last_visited // gets root css_tryget(last_visited) // failed [1] The issue seemed to be introduced by commit 5f578161 ("memcg: relax memcg iter caching") which has replaced unconditional css_get/css_put by css_tryget/css_put for the cached iterator. This patch fixes the issue by skipping css_tryget on the root of the tree walk in mem_cgroup_iter_load and symmetrically doesn't release it in mem_cgroup_iter_update.

Code that is obj-y (always built-in) or dependent on a bool Kconfig (built-in or absent) can never be modular. So using module_init as an alias for __initcall can be somewhat misleading. Fix these up now, so that we can relocate module_init from init.h into module.h in the future. If we don't do this, we'd have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, and that would be a worse thing. The audit targets the following module_init users for change: mm/ksm.c bool KSM mm/mmap.c bool MMU mm/huge_memory.c bool TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE mm/mmu_notifier.c bool MMU_NOTIFIER Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one of the priority categorized subgroups. As __initcall gets mapped onto device_initcall, our use of subsys_initcall (which makes sense for these files) will thus change this registration from level 6-device to level 4-subsys (i.e. slightly earlier). However no observable impact of that difference has been observed during testing. One might think that core_initcall (l2) or postcore_initcall (l3) would be more appropriate for anything in mm/ but if we look at some actual init functions themselves, we see things like: mm/huge_memory.c --> hugepage_init --> hugepage_init_sysfs mm/mmap.c --> init_user_reserve --> sysctl_user_reserve_kbytes mm/ksm.c --> ksm_init --> sysfs_create_group and hence the choice of subsys_initcall (l4) seems reasonable, and at the same time minimizes the risk of changing the priority too drastically all at once. We can adjust further in the future. Also, several instances of missing ";" at EOL are fixed.

The use of __initcall is to be eventually replaced by choosing one from the prioritized groupings laid out in init.h header: pure_initcall 0 core_initcall 1 postcore_initcall 2 arch_initcall 3 subsys_initcall 4 fs_initcall 5 device_initcall 6 late_initcall 7 In the interim, all __initcall are mapped onto device_initcall, which as can be seen above, comes quite late in the ordering. Currently the mm_kobj is created with __initcall in mm_sysfs_init(). This means that any other initcalls that want to reference the mm_kobj have to be device_initcall (or later), otherwise we will for example, trip the BUG_ON(!kobj) in sysfs's internal_create_group(). This unfairly restricts those users; for example something that clearly makes sense to be an arch_initcall will not be able to choose that. However, upon examination, it is only this way for historical reasons (i.e. simply not reprioritized yet). We see that sysfs is ready quite earlier in init/main.c via: vfs_caches_init |_ mnt_init |_ sysfs_init well ahead of the processing of the prioritized calls listed above. So we can recategorize mm_sysfs_init to be a pure_initcall, which in turn allows any mm_kobj initcall users a wider range (1 --> 7) of initcall priorities to choose from.

We don't need to do register_memory_resource() under lock_memory_hotplug() since it has its own lock and doesn't make any callbacks. Also register_memory_resource return NULL on failure so we don't have anything to cleanup at this point. The reason for this rfc is I was doing some experiments with hotplugging of memory on some of our larger systems. While it seems to work, it can be quite slow. With some preliminary digging I found that lock_memory_hotplug is clearly ripe for breakup. It could be broken up per nid or something but it also covers the online_page_callback. The online_page_callback shouldn't be very hard to break out. Also there is the issue of various structures(wmarks come to mind) that are only updated under the lock_memory_hotplug that would need to be dealt with.

When reclaiming kmem, we currently don't scan slabs that have less than batch_size objects (see shrink_slab_node()): while (total_scan >= batch_size) { shrinkctl->nr_to_scan = batch_size; shrinker->scan_objects(shrinker, shrinkctl); total_scan -= batch_size; } If there are only a few shrinkers available, such a behavior won't cause any problems, because the batch_size is usually small, but if we have a lot of slab shrinkers, which is perfectly possible since FS shrinkers are now per-superblock, we can end up with hundreds of megabytes of practically unreclaimable kmem objects. For instance, mounting a thousand of ext2 FS images with a hundred of files in each and iterating over all the files using du(1) will result in about 200 Mb of FS caches that cannot be dropped even with the aid of the vm.drop_caches sysctl! This problem was initially pointed out by Glauber Costa [*]. Glauber proposed to fix it by making the shrink_slab() always take at least one pass, to put it simply, turning the scan loop above to a do{}while() loop. However, this proposal was rejected, because it could result in more aggressive and frequent slab shrinking even under low memory pressure when total_scan is naturally very small. This patch is a slightly modified version of Glauber's approach. Similarly to Glauber's patch, it makes shrink_slab() scan less than batch_size objects, but only if the total number of objects we want to scan (total_scan) is greater than the total number of objects available (max_pass). Since total_scan is biased as half max_pass if the current delta change is small: if (delta < max_pass / 4) total_scan = min(total_scan, max_pass / 2); this is only possible if we are scanning at high prio. That said, this patch shouldn't change the vmscan behaviour if the memory pressure is low, but if we are tight on memory, we will do our best by trying to reclaim all available objects, which sounds reasonable.

If echo -1 > /proc/vm/sys/min_free_kbytes, the system will hang. Changing proc_dointvec() to proc_dointvec_minmax() in the min_free_kbytes_sysctl_handler() can prevent this to happen. mhocko said: : You can still do echo $BIG_VALUE > /proc/vm/sys/min_free_kbytes and make : your machine unusable but I agree that proc_dointvec_minmax is more : suitable here as we already have: : : .proc_handler = min_free_kbytes_sysctl_handler, : .extra1 = &zero, : : It used to work properly but then 6fce56ec ("sysctl: Remove references : to ctl_name and strategy from the generic sysctl table") has removed : sysctl_intvec strategy and so extra1 is ignored.

Commit 11c731e8 ("mm/mempolicy: fix !vma in new_vma_page()") has removed BUG_ON(!vma) from new_vma_page which is partially correct because page_address_in_vma will return EFAULT for non-linear mappings and at least shared shmem might be mapped this way. The patch also tried to prevent NULL ptr for hugetlb pages which is not correct AFAICS because hugetlb pages cannot be mapped as VM_NONLINEAR and other conditions in page_address_in_vma seem to be legit and catch real bugs. This patch restores BUG_ON for PageHuge to catch potential issues when the to-be-migrated page is not setup properly.

After thp split in hwpoison_user_mappings(), we hold page lock on the raw error page only between try_to_unmap, hence we are in danger of race condition.

This strange page fault is trying to access to address 0x20 and I'm not sure why qemu-kvm does this, but anyway as a result the SIGSEGV makes qemu-kvm exit and on the way we catch the bad page bug/warning because we try to free a locked page (which was the former head page.) To fix this, this patch suggests to shift page lock from head page to tail page just after thp split. SIGSEGV still happens, but it affects only error affected VMs, not a whole system.

Add a working sysctl to enable/disable automatic numa memory balancing at runtime. This allows us to track down performance problems with this feature and is generally a good idea. This was possible earlier through debugfs, but only with special debugging options set. Also fix the boot message.

When memblock_reserve() fails because memblock.reserved.regions cannot be resized, the caller (e.g. alloc_bootmem()) is not informed of the failed allocation. Therefore alloc_bootmem() silently returns the same pointer again and again. This patch adds a check for the return value of memblock_reserve() in __alloc_memory_core().

Currently we take both the memcg_create_mutex and the set_limit_mutex when we enable kmem accounting for a memory cgroup, which makes kmem activation events serialize with both memcg creations and other memcg limit updates (memory.limit, memory.memsw.limit). However, there is no point in such strict synchronization rules there. First, the set_limit_mutex was introduced to keep the memory.limit and memory.memsw.limit values in sync. Since memory.kmem.limit can be set independently of them, it is better to introduce a separate mutex to synchronize against concurrent kmem limit updates. Second, we take the memcg_create_mutex in order to make sure all children of this memcg will be kmem-active as well. For achieving that, it is enough to hold this mutex only while checking if memcg_has_children() though. This guarantees that if a child is added after we checked that the memcg has no children, the newly added cgroup will see its parent kmem-active (of course if the latter succeeded), and call kmem activation for itself. This patch simplifies the locking rules of memcg_update_kmem_limit() according to these considerations.

Currently we have two state bits in mem_cgroup::kmem_account_flags regarding kmem accounting activation, ACTIVATED and ACTIVE. We start kmem accounting only if both flags are set (memcg_can_account_kmem()), plus throughout the code there are several places where we check only the ACTIVE flag, but we never check the ACTIVATED flag alone. These flags are both set from memcg_update_kmem_limit() under the set_limit_mutex, the ACTIVE flag always being set after ACTIVATED, and they never get cleared. That said checking if both flags are set is equivalent to checking only for the ACTIVE flag, and since there is no ACTIVATED flag checks, we can safely remove the ACTIVATED flag, and nothing will change. Let's try to understand what was the reason for introducing these flags. The purpose of the ACTIVE flag is clear - it states that kmem should be accounting to the cgroup. The only requirement for it is that it should be set after we have fully initialized kmem accounting bits for the cgroup and patched all static branches relating to kmem accounting. Since we always check if static branch is enabled before actually considering if we should account (otherwise we wouldn't benefit from static branching), this guarantees us that we won't skip a commit or uncharge after a charge due to an unpatched static branch. Now let's move on to the ACTIVATED bit. As I proved in the beginning of this message, it is absolutely useless, and removing it will change nothing. So what was the reason introducing it? The ACTIVATED flag was introduced by commit a8964b9b ("memcg: use static branches when code not in use") in order to guarantee that static_key_slow_inc(&memcg_kmem_enabled_key) would be called only once for each memory cgroup when its kmem accounting was activated. The point was that at that time the memcg_update_kmem_limit() function's work-flow looked like this: bool must_inc_static_branch = false; cgroup_lock(); mutex_lock(&set_limit_mutex); if (!memcg->kmem_account_flags && val != RESOURCE_MAX) { /* The kmem limit is set for the first time */ ret = res_counter_set_limit(&memcg->kmem, val); memcg_kmem_set_activated(memcg); must_inc_static_branch = true; } else ret = res_counter_set_limit(&memcg->kmem, val); mutex_unlock(&set_limit_mutex); cgroup_unlock(); if (must_inc_static_branch) { /* We can't do this under cgroup_lock */ static_key_slow_inc(&memcg_kmem_enabled_key); memcg_kmem_set_active(memcg); } So that without the ACTIVATED flag we could race with other threads trying to set the limit and increment the static branching ref-counter more than once. Today we call the whole memcg_update_kmem_limit() function under the set_limit_mutex and this race is impossible. As now we understand why the ACTIVATED bit was introduced and why we don't need it now, and know that removing it will change nothing anyway, let's get rid of it.

We relocate root cache's memcg_params whenever we need to grow the memcg_caches array to accommodate all kmem-active memory cgroups. Currently on relocation we free the old version immediately, which can lead to use-after-free, because the memcg_caches array is accessed lock-free (see cache_from_memcg_idx()). This patch fixes this by making memcg_params RCU-protected for root caches.

There is no point in flooding logs with warnings or especially crashing the system if we fail to create a cache for a memcg. In this case we will be accounting the memcg allocation to the root cgroup until we succeed to create its own cache, but it isn't that critical.
