The NUMA counters in struct per_cpu_pageset (linux/mmzone.h) are never cleared today. This works ok for CPU 0 on NUMA machines because boot_pageset[] is already zero, but for other CPU:s this results in uninitialized counters.

This introduces a limit parameter to the core bootmem allocator; The new parameter indicates that physical memory allocated by the bootmem allocator should be within the requested limit. We also introduce alloc_bootmem_low_pages_limit, alloc_bootmem_node_limit, alloc_bootmem_low_pages_node_limit apis, but alloc_bootmem_low_pages_limit is the only api used for swiotlb. The existing alloc_bootmem_low_pages() api could instead have been changed and made to pass right limit to the core allocator. But that would make the patch more intrusive for 2.6.14, as other arches use alloc_bootmem_low_pages(). We may be done that post 2.6.14 as a cleanup. With this, swiotlb gets memory within 4G for both x86_64 and ia64 arches.

hugetlbfs allows truncation of its files (should it?), but hugetlb.c often forgets that: crashes and misaccounting ensue. copy_hugetlb_page_range better grab the src page_table_lock since we don't want to guess what happens if concurrently truncated. unmap_hugepage_range rss accounting must not assume the full range was mapped. follow_hugetlb_page must guard with page_table_lock and be prepared to exit early. Restyle copy_hugetlb_page_range with a for loop like the others there.

The hugetlb pages are currently pre-faulted. At the time of mmap of hugepages, we populate the new PTEs. It is possible that HW has already cached some of the unused PTEs internally. These stale entries never get a chance to be purged in existing control flow. This patch extends the check in page fault code for hugepages. Check if a faulted address falls with in size for the hugetlb file backing it. We return VM_FAULT_MINOR for these cases (assuming that the arch specific page-faulting code purges the stale entry for the archs that need it).

As noticed by Nick Piggin, we need to make sure that we check the page count before we check for PageDirty, since the dirty check is only valid if the count implies that we're the only possible ones holding the page. We always did do this, but the code needs a read-memory-barrier to make sure that the orderign is also honored by the CPU. (The writer side is ordered due to the atomic decrement and test on the page count, see the discussion on linux-kernel) Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Move the ZERO_PAGE remapping complexity to the move_pte macro in asm-generic, have it conditionally depend on __HAVE_ARCH_MULTIPLE_ZERO_PAGE, which gets defined for MIPS.

Problem: In some circumstances, bd_claim() is returning the wrong error code. If we try to swapon an unused block device that isn't swap formatted, we get -EINVAL. But if that same block device is already mounted, we instead get -EBUSY, even though it still isn't a valid swap device. This issue came up on the busybox list trying to get the error message from "swapon -a" right. If a swap device is already enabled, we get -EBUSY, and we shouldn't report this as an error. But we can't distinguish the two -EBUSY conditions, which are very different errors. In the code, bd_claim() returns either 0 or -EBUSY, but in this case busy means "somebody other than sys_swapon has already claimed this", and _that_ means this block device can't be a valid swap device. So return -EINVAL there. Signed-off-by: NRob Landley <rob@landley.net> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

I had an issue on ia64 where I got a bug in kernel/workqueue because kzalloc returned a NULL pointer due to the task structure getting too big for the slab allocator. Usually these cases are caught by the kmalloc macro in include/linux/slab.h. Compilation will fail if a too big value is passed to kmalloc. However, kzalloc uses __kmalloc which has no check for that. This patch makes __kmalloc bug if a too large entity is requested.

The numa slab allocator may allocate pages from foreign nodes onto the lists for a particular node if a node runs out of memory. Inspecting the slab->nodeid field will not reflect that the page is now in use for the slabs of another node. This patch fixes that issue by adding a node field to free_block so that the caller can indicate which node currently uses a slab. Also removes the check for the current node from kmalloc_cache_node since the process may shift later to another node which may lead to an allocation on another node than intended.

With the new changes that we made in the initialization of the slab allocator, we first setup the cache from which array caches are allocated, and then the cache, from which kmem_list3's are allocated. Now if the array cache comes from a cache in which objsize > 32, (in this instance size-64) then, first size-64 cache will be allocated and then the size-128 (if this is the cache from which kmem_list3's are going to be allocated). So with these new changes, we are not guaranteed that we will be initializing the malloc_sizes array in a serialized order. Thus there is a bug in __find_general_cachep, as we are checking whether the first cache_sizes ptr is NULL. This is replaced by checking whether the array-cache cache is initialized. Attached is a patch which does that. Boots fine on a x86-64, with DEBUG_SPIN, DEBUG_SLAB, and preempt. Attached is a patch which does that.

Pavel Emelianov and Kirill Korotaev observe that fs and arch users of security_vm_enough_memory tend to forget to vm_unacct_memory when a failure occurs further down (typically in setup_arg_pages variants). These are all users of insert_vm_struct, and that reservation will only be unaccounted on exit if the vma is marked VM_ACCOUNT: which in some cases it is (hidden inside VM_STACK_FLAGS) and in some cases it isn't. So x86_64 32-bit and ppc64 vDSO ELFs have been leaking memory into Committed_AS each time they're run. But don't add VM_ACCOUNT to them, it's inappropriate to reserve against the very unlikely case that gdb be used to COW a vDSO page - we ought to do something about that in do_wp_page, but there are yet other inconsistencies to be resolved. The safe and economical way to fix this is to let insert_vm_struct do the security_vm_enough_memory check when it finds VM_ACCOUNT is set. And the MIPS irix_brk has been calling security_vm_enough_memory before calling do_brk which repeats it, doubly accounting and so also leaking. Remove that, and all the fs and arch calls to security_vm_enough_memory: give it a less misleading name later on.

Move call to get_mm_counter() in update_mem_hiwater() to be inside the check for tsk->mm being null. Otherwise you can be following a null pointer here. This patch submitted by Javier Herrero <jherrero@hvsistemas.es>. Modify the end check for munmap regions to allow for the legacy behavior of 0 being valid. Pretty much all current uClinux system libc malloc's pass in 0 as the end point. A hard check will fail on these, so change the check so that if it is non-zero it must be valid otherwise it fails. A passed in value will always succeed (as it used too). Also export a few more mm system functions - to be consistent with the VM code exports.

The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

This patch modifies tmpfs to call the inode_init_security LSM hook to set up the incore inode security state for new inodes before the inode becomes accessible via the dcache. As there is no underlying storage of security xattrs in this case, it is not necessary for the hook to return the (name, value, len) triple to the tmpfs code, so this patch also modifies the SELinux hook function to correctly handle the case where the (name, value, len) pointers are NULL. The hook call is needed in tmpfs in order to support proper security labeling of tmpfs inodes (e.g. for udev with tmpfs /dev in Fedora). With this change in place, we should then be able to remove the security_inode_post_create/mkdir/... hooks safely.

Update the file systems in fs/ implementing a delete_inode() callback to call truncate_inode_pages(). One implementation note: In developing this patch I put the calls to truncate_inode_pages() at the very top of those filesystems delete_inode() callbacks in order to retain the previous behavior. I'm guessing that some of those could probably be optimized.

Run PCI driver initialization on local node Instead of adding messy kmalloc_node()s everywhere run the PCI driver probe on the node local to the device. This would not have helped for IDE, but should for other more clean drivers that do more initialization in probe(). It won't help for drivers that do most of the work on first open (like many network drivers) Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

Now the real motivation for this cpuset mem_exclusive patch series seems trivial. This patch keeps a task in or under one mem_exclusive cpuset from provoking an oom kill of a task under a non-overlapping mem_exclusive cpuset. Since only interrupt and GFP_ATOMIC allocations are allowed to escape mem_exclusive containment, there is little to gain from oom killing a task under a non-overlapping mem_exclusive cpuset, as almost all kernel and user memory allocation must come from disjoint memory nodes. This patch enables configuring a system so that a runaway job under one mem_exclusive cpuset cannot cause the killing of a job in another such cpuset that might be using very high compute and memory resources for a prolonged time.
