This patch converts change_prot_numa() to use change_protection(). As
pte_numa and friends check the PTE bits directly it is necessary for
change_protection() to use pmd_mknuma(). Hence the required
modifications to change_protection() are a little clumsy but the
end result is that most of the numa page table helpers are just one or
two instructions.

NOTE: Once again there is a lot of patch stealing and the end result
	is sufficiently different that I had to drop the signed-offs.
	Will re-add if the original authors are ok with that.

This patch adds another mbind() flag to request "lazy migration".  The
flag, MPOL_MF_LAZY, modifies MPOL_MF_MOVE* such that the selected
pages are marked PROT_NONE. The pages will be migrated in the fault
path on "first touch", if the policy dictates at that time.

"Lazy Migration" will allow testing of migrate-on-fault via mbind().
Also allows applications to specify that only subsequently touched
pages be migrated to obey new policy, instead of all pages in range.
This can be useful for multi-threaded applications working on a
large shared data area that is initialized by an initial thread
resulting in all pages on one [or a few, if overflowed] nodes.
After PROT_NONE, the pages in regions assigned to the worker threads
will be automatically migrated local to the threads on 1st touch.

This patch provides a new function to test whether a page resides
on a node that is appropriate for the mempolicy for the vma and
address where the page is supposed to be mapped.  This involves
looking up the node where the page belongs.  So, the function
returns that node so that it may be used to allocated the page
without consulting the policy again.

A subsequent patch will call this function from the fault path.
Because of this, I don't want to go ahead and allocate the page, e.g.,
via alloc_page_vma() only to have to free it if it has the correct
policy.  So, I just mimic the alloc_page_vma() node computation
logic--sort of.

Note:  we could use this function to implement a MPOL_MF_STRICT
behavior when migrating pages to match mbind() mempolicy--e.g.,
to ensure that pages in an interleaved range are reinterleaved
rather than left where they are when they reside on any page in
the interleave nodemask.

This patch augments the MPOL_MF_LAZY feature by adding a "NOOP" policy
to mbind().  When the NOOP policy is used with the 'MOVE and 'LAZY
flags, mbind() will map the pages PROT_NONE so that they will be
migrated on the next touch.

This allows an application to prepare for a new phase of operation
where different regions of shared storage will be assigned to
worker threads, w/o changing policy.  Note that we could just use
"default" policy in this case.  However, this also allows an
application to request that pages be migrated, only if necessary,
to follow any arbitrary policy that might currently apply to a
range of pages, without knowing the policy, or without specifying
multiple mbind()s for ranges with different policies.

When reading /proc/pid/numa_maps, it's possible to return the contents of
the stack where the mempolicy string should be printed if the policy gets
freed from beneath us.

This happens because mpol_to_str() may return an error the
stack-allocated buffer is then printed without ever being stored.

There are two possible error conditions in mpol_to_str():

 - if the buffer allocated is insufficient for the string to be stored,
   and

 - if the mempolicy has an invalid mode.

The first error condition is not triggered in any of the callers to
mpol_to_str(): at least 50 bytes is always allocated on the stack and this
is sufficient for the string to be written.  A future patch should convert
this into BUILD_BUG_ON() since we know the maximum strlen possible, but
that's not -rc material.

The second error condition is possible if a race occurs in dropping a
reference to a task's mempolicy causing it to be freed during the read().
The slab poison value is then used for the mode and mpol_to_str() returns
-EINVAL.

This race is only possible because get_vma_policy() believes that
mm->mmap_sem protects task->mempolicy, which isn't true.  The exit path
does not hold mm->mmap_sem when dropping the reference or setting
task->mempolicy to NULL: it uses task_lock(task) instead.

Thus, it's required for the caller of a task mempolicy to hold
task_lock(task) while grabbing the mempolicy and reading it.  Callers with
a vma policy store their mempolicy earlier and can simply increment the
reference count so it's guaranteed not to be freed.

:
: 1. we pass mm->mmap->vm_start in there, so we should not fail due to

:
: 2. we pass MPOL_MF_DISCONTIG_OK, so the discontig checks do not apply
:    and so can not fail
:
: 3. we pass MPOL_MF_MOVE | MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL, the page table loops will
:    continue until addr == end, so we never fail with -EIO

And I added a new VM_BUG_ON for checking migrate_to_node's future usecase
which might pass to MPOL_MF_STRICT.

Commit cc9a6c87 ("cpuset: mm: reduce large amounts of memory barrier
related damage v3") introduced a potential memory corruption.
shmem_alloc_page() uses a pseudo vma and it has one significant unique
combination, vma->vm_ops=NULL and vma->policy->flags & MPOL_F_SHARED.

get_vma_policy() does NOT increase a policy ref when vma->vm_ops=NULL
and mpol_cond_put() DOES decrease a policy ref when a policy has
MPOL_F_SHARED.  Therefore, when a cpuset update race occurs,
alloc_pages_vma() falls in 'goto retry_cpuset' path, decrements the
reference count and frees the policy prematurely.

When shared_policy_replace() fails to allocate new->policy is not freed
correctly by mpol_set_shared_policy().  The problem is that shared
mempolicy code directly call kmem_cache_free() in multiple places where
it is easy to make a mistake.

This patch creates an sp_free wrapper function and uses it. The bug was
introduced pre-git age (IOW, before 2.6.12-rc2).

shared_policy_replace() use of sp_alloc() is unsafe.  1) sp_node cannot
be dereferenced if sp->lock is not held and 2) another thread can modify
sp_node between spin_unlock for allocating a new sp node and next
spin_lock.  The bug was introduced before 2.6.12-rc2.

Kosaki's original patch for this problem was to allocate an sp node and
policy within shared_policy_replace and initialise it when the lock is
reacquired.  I was not keen on this approach because it partially
duplicates sp_alloc().  As the paths were sp->lock is taken are not that
performance critical this patch converts sp->lock to sp->mutex so it can
sleep when calling sp_alloc().

The problem is that the structure is being prematurely freed due to a
reference count imbalance. In the following case mbind(addr, len) should
replace the memory policies of both vma1 and vma2 and thus they will
become to share the same mempolicy and the new mempolicy will have the
MPOL_F_SHARED flag.

  +-------------------+-------------------+
  |     vma1          |     vma2(shmem)   |
  +-------------------+-------------------+
  |                                       |
 addr                                 addr+len

alloc_pages_vma() uses get_vma_policy() and mpol_cond_put() pair for
maintaining the mempolicy reference count.  The current rule is that
get_vma_policy() only increments refcount for shmem VMA and
mpol_conf_put() only decrements refcount if the policy has
MPOL_F_SHARED.

In above case, vma1 is not shmem vma and vma->policy has MPOL_F_SHARED!
The reference count will be decreased even though was not increased
whenever alloc_page_vma() is called.  This has been broken since commit
[52cd3b07: mempolicy: rework mempolicy Reference Counting] in 2008.

There is another serious bug with the sharing of memory policies.
Currently, mempolicy rebind logic (it is called from cpuset rebinding)
ignores a refcount of mempolicy and override it forcibly.  Thus, any
mempolicy sharing may cause mempolicy corruption.  The bug was
introduced by commit [68860ec1: cpusets: automatic numa mempolicy
rebinding].

Ideally, the shared policy handling would be rewritten to either
properly handle COW of the policy structures or at least reference count
MPOL_F_SHARED based exclusively on information within the policy.
However, this patch takes the easier approach of disabling any policy
sharing between VMAs.  Each new range allocated with sp_alloc will
allocate a new policy, set the reference count to 1 and drop the
reference count of the old policy.  This increases the memory footprint
but is not expected to be a major problem as mbind() is unlikely to be
used for fine-grained ranges.  It is also inefficient because it means
we allocate a new policy even in cases where mbind_range() could use the
new_policy passed to it.  However, it is more straight-forward and the
change should be invisible to the user.

If the range passed to mbind() is not allocated on nodes set in the
nodemask, it migrates the pages to respect the constraint.

The final formal of migrate_pages() is a mode of type enum migrate_mode,
not a boolean.  do_mbind() is currently passing "true" which is the
equivalent of MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT.  This should instead be MIGRATE_SYNC
for synchronous page migration.

slab_node() could access current->mempolicy from interrupt context.
However there's a race condition during exit where the mempolicy
is first freed and then the pointer zeroed.

Using this from interrupts seems bogus anyways. The interrupt
will interrupt a random process and therefore get a random
mempolicy. Many times, this will be idle's, which noone can change.

Just disable this here and always use local for slab
from interrupts. I also cleaned up the callers of slab_node a bit
which always passed the same argument.

I believe the original mempolicy code did that in fact,
so it's likely a regression.

While running an application that moves tasks from one cpuset to another
I noticed that it takes much longer and moves many more pages than
expected.

The reason for this is do_migrate_pages() does its best to preserve the
relative node differential from the first node of the cpuset because the
application may have been written with that in mind.  If memory was
interleaved on the nodes of the source cpuset by an application
do_migrate_pages() will try its best to maintain that interleaving on
the nodes of the destination cpuset.  This means copying the memory from
all source nodes to the destination nodes even if the source and
destination nodes overlap.

This is a problem for userspace NUMA placement tools.  The amount of
time spent doing extra memory moves cancels out some of the NUMA
performance improvements.  Furthermore, if the number of source and
destination nodes are to maintain the previous interleaving layout
anyway.

This patch changes do_migrate_pages() to only preserve the relative
layout inside the program if the number of NUMA nodes in the source and
destination mask are the same.  If the number is different, we do a much
more efficient migration by not touching memory that is in an allowed
node.

This preserves the old behaviour for programs that want it, while
allowing a userspace NUMA placement tool to use the new, faster
migration.  This improves performance in our tests by up to a factor of
7.

Without this change migrating tasks from a cpuset containing nodes 0-7
to a cpuset containing nodes 3-4, we migrate from ALL the nodes even if
they are in the both the source and destination nodesets:

   Migrating 7 to 4
   Migrating 6 to 3
   Migrating 5 to 4
   Migrating 4 to 3
   Migrating 1 to 4
   Migrating 3 to 4
   Migrating 0 to 3
   Migrating 2 to 3

With this change we only migrate from nodes that are not in the
destination nodesets:

   Migrating 7 to 4
   Migrating 6 to 3
   Migrating 5 to 4
   Migrating 2 to 3
   Migrating 1 to 4
   Migrating 0 to 3

Yet if we move from a cpuset containing nodes 2,3,4 to a cpuset
containing 3,4,5 we still do move everything so that we preserve the
desired NUMA offsets:

   Migrating 4 to 5
   Migrating 3 to 4
   Migrating 2 to 3

As far as performance is concerned this simple patch improves the time
it takes to move 14, 20 and 26 large tasks from a cpuset containing
nodes 0-7 to a cpuset containing nodes 1 & 3 by up to a factor of 7.

This implied a reference counting bug and the problem happened during
mbind().

mbind() applies a new memory policy to a range and uses mbind_range() to
merge existing VMAs or split them as necessary.  In the event of splits,
mpol_dup() will allocate a new struct mempolicy and maintain existing
reference counts whose rules are documented in
Documentation/vm/numa_memory_policy.txt .

The problem occurs with shared memory policies.  The vm_op->set_policy
increments the reference count if necessary and split_vma() and
vma_merge() have already handled the existing reference counts.
However, policy_vma() screws it up by replacing an existing
vma->vm_policy with one that potentially has the wrong reference count
leading to a premature free.  This patch removes the damage caused by
policy_vma().

With this patch applied Dave's trinity tool runs an mbind test for 5
minutes without error.  /proc/slabinfo reported that there are no
numa_policy or shared_policy_node objects allocated after the test
completed and the shared memory region was deleted.

Commit 3268c63e ("mm: fix move/migrate_pages() race on task struct") has
added an odd construct where 'mm' is checked for being NULL, and if it is,
it would get dereferenced anyways by mput()ing it.

This would lead to the following NULL ptr deref and BUG() when calling
migrate_pages() with a pid that has no mm struct:

Commit c0ff7453 ("cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when
changing cpuset's mems") wins a super prize for the largest number of
memory barriers entered into fast paths for one commit.

[get|put]_mems_allowed is incredibly heavy with pairs of full memory
barriers inserted into a number of hot paths.  This was detected while
investigating at large page allocator slowdown introduced some time
after 2.6.32.  The largest portion of this overhead was shown by
oprofile to be at an mfence introduced by this commit into the page
allocator hot path.

For extra style points, the commit introduced the use of yield() in an
implementation of what looks like a spinning mutex.

This patch replaces the full memory barriers on both read and write
sides with a sequence counter with just read barriers on the fast path
side.  This is much cheaper on some architectures, including x86.  The
main bulk of the patch is the retry logic if the nodemask changes in a
manner that can cause a false failure.

While updating the nodemask, a check is made to see if a false failure
is a risk.  If it is, the sequence number gets bumped and parallel
allocators will briefly stall while the nodemask update takes place.

In a page fault test microbenchmark, oprofile samples from
__alloc_pages_nodemask went from 4.53% of all samples to 1.15%.  The
actual results were

The overall improvement is small but the System CPU time is much
improved and roughly in correlation to what oprofile reported (these
performance figures are without profiling so skew is expected).  The
actual number of page faults is noticeably improved.

For benchmarks like kernel builds, the overall benefit is marginal but
the system CPU time is slightly reduced.

To test the actual bug the commit fixed I opened two terminals.  The
first ran within a cpuset and continually ran a small program that
faulted 100M of anonymous data.  In a second window, the nodemask of the
cpuset was continually randomised in a loop.

Without the commit, the program would fail every so often (usually
within 10 seconds) and obviously with the commit everything worked fine.
With this patch applied, it also worked fine so the fix should be
functionally equivalent.

Migration functions perform the rcu_read_unlock too early.  As a result
the task pointed to may change from under us.  This can result in an oops,
as reported by Dave Hansen in https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/23/302.

The following patch extend the period of the rcu_read_lock until after the
permissions checks are done.  We also take a refcount so that the task
reference is stable when calling security check functions and performing
cpuset node validation (which takes a mutex).

The refcount is dropped before actual page migration occurs so there is no
change to the refcounts held during page migration.

Also move the determination of the mm of the task struct to immediately
before the do_migrate*() calls so that it is clear that we switch from
handling the task during permission checks to the mm for the actual
migration.  Since the determination is only done once and we then no
longer use the task_struct we can be sure that we operate on a specific
address space that will not change from under us.

In some cases it may happen that pmd_none_or_clear_bad() is called with
the mmap_sem hold in read mode.  In those cases the huge page faults can
allocate hugepmds under pmd_none_or_clear_bad() and that can trigger a
false positive from pmd_bad() that will not like to see a pmd
materializing as trans huge.

It's not khugepaged causing the problem, khugepaged holds the mmap_sem
in write mode (and all those sites must hold the mmap_sem in read mode
to prevent pagetables to go away from under them, during code review it
seems vm86 mode on 32bit kernels requires that too unless it's
restricted to 1 thread per process or UP builds).  The race is only with
the huge pagefaults that can convert a pmd_none() into a
pmd_trans_huge().

Effectively all these pmd_none_or_clear_bad() sites running with
mmap_sem in read mode are somewhat speculative with the page faults, and
the result is always undefined when they run simultaneously.  This is
probably why it wasn't common to run into this.  For example if the
madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) runs zap_page_range() shortly before the page
fault, the hugepage will not be zapped, if the page fault runs first it
will be zapped.

Altering pmd_bad() not to error out if it finds hugepmds won't be enough
to fix this, because zap_pmd_range would then proceed to call
zap_pte_range (which would be incorrect if the pmd become a
pmd_trans_huge()).

The simplest way to fix this is to read the pmd in the local stack
(regardless of what we read, no need of actual CPU barriers, only
compiler barrier needed), and be sure it is not changing under the code
that computes its value.  Even if the real pmd is changing under the
value we hold on the stack, we don't care.  If we actually end up in
zap_pte_range it means the pmd was not none already and it was not huge,
and it can't become huge from under us (khugepaged locking explained
above).

All we need is to enforce that there is no way anymore that in a code
path like below, pmd_trans_huge can be false, but pmd_none_or_clear_bad
can run into a hugepmd.  The overhead of a barrier() is just a compiler
tweak and should not be measurable (I only added it for THP builds).  I
don't exclude different compiler versions may have prevented the race
too by caching the value of *pmd on the stack (that hasn't been
verified, but it wouldn't be impossible considering
pmd_none_or_clear_bad, pmd_bad, pmd_trans_huge, pmd_none are all inlines
and there's no external function called in between pmd_trans_huge and
pmd_none_or_clear_bad).

		if (pmd_trans_huge(*pmd)) {
			if (next-addr != HPAGE_PMD_SIZE) {
				VM_BUG_ON(!rwsem_is_locked(&tlb->mm->mmap_sem));
				split_huge_page_pmd(vma->vm_mm, pmd);
			} else if (zap_huge_pmd(tlb, vma, pmd, addr))
				continue;
			/* fall through */
		}
		if (pmd_none_or_clear_bad(pmd))

Because this race condition could be exercised without special
privileges this was reported in CVE-2012-1179.

The race was identified and fully explained by Ulrich who debugged it.
I'm quoting his accurate explanation below, for reference.

        143 void pmd_clear_bad(pmd_t *pmd)
        144 {
    ->  145         pmd_ERROR(*pmd);
        146         pmd_clear(pmd);
        147 }

    After the PMD table entry has been cleared, there is an inconsistency
    between the actual number of PMD table entries that are mapping the page
    and the page's map count (_mapcount field in struct page). When the page
    is subsequently reclaimed, __split_huge_page() detects this inconsistency.

       1381         if (mapcount != page_mapcount(page))
       1382                 printk(KERN_ERR "mapcount %d page_mapcount %d\n",
       1383                        mapcount, page_mapcount(page));
    -> 1384         BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page));

    The root cause of the problem is a race of two threads in a multithreaded
    process. Thread B incurs a page fault on a virtual address that has never
    been accessed (PMD entry is zero) while Thread A is executing an madvise()
    system call on a virtual address within the same 2 MB (huge page) range.

    The mmap_sem does not prevent the race because both threads are acquiring
    it in shared mode (down_read).  Thread B holds the page_table_lock while
    the page's map count and PMD table entry are updated.  However, Thread A
    does not synchronize on that lock.

Several users of "find_vma_prev()" were not in fact interested in the
previous vma if there was no primary vma to be found either.  And in
those cases, we're much better off just using the regular "find_vma()",
and then "prev" can be looked up by just checking vma->vm_prev.

The find_vma_prev() semantics are fairly subtle (see Mikulas' recent
commit 83cd904d: "mm: fix find_vma_prev"), and the whole "return
prev by reference" means that it generates worse code too.

Thus this "let's avoid using this inconvenient and clearly too subtle
interface when we don't really have to" patch.

This patch adds a lightweight sync migrate operation MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT
mode that avoids writing back pages to backing storage.  Async compaction
maps to MIGRATE_ASYNC while sync compaction maps to MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT.
For other migrate_pages users such as memory hotplug, MIGRATE_SYNC is
used.

This avoids sync compaction stalling for an excessive length of time,
particularly when copying files to a USB stick where there might be a
large number of dirty pages backed by a filesystem that does not support
->writepages.

commit 8aacc9f5 ("mm/mempolicy.c: fix pgoff in mbind vma merge") is the
slightly incorrect fix.

Why? Think following case.

1. map 4 pages of a file at offset 0

   [0123]

2. map 2 pages just after the first mapping of the same file but with
   page offset 2

   [0123][23]

3. mbind() 2 pages from the first mapping at offset 2.
   mbind_range() should treat new vma is,

   [0123][23]
     |23|
     mbind vma

   but it does

   [0123][23]
     |01|
     mbind vma

   Oops. then, it makes wrong vma merge and splitting ([01][0123] or similar).

This patch fixes it.

commit 9d8cebd4 ("mm: fix mbind vma merge problem") didn't really
fix the mbind vma merge problem due to wrong pgoff value passing to
vma_merge(), which made vma_merge() always return NULL.

Before the patch applied, we are getting a result like:

  addr = 0x7fa58f00c000
  [snip]
  7fa58f00c000-7fa58f00d000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0

  7fa58f00e000-7fa58f00f000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0

here 7fa58f00c000->7fa58f00f000 we get 3 VMAs which are expected to be
merged described as described in commit 9d8cebd4.

Re-testing the patched kernel with the reproducer provided in commit
9d8cebd4, we get the correct result:

  addr = 0x7ffa5aaa2000

[ This patch has already been accepted as commit 0ac0c0d0 but later
  reverted (commit 35926ff5) because it itroduced arch specific
  __node_random which was defined only for x86 code so it broke other
  archs.  This is a followup without any arch specific code.  Other than
  that there are no functional changes.]

Some workloads that create a large number of small files tend to assign
too many pages to node 0 (multi-node systems).  Part of the reason is
that the rotor (in cpuset_mem_spread_node()) used to assign nodes starts
at node 0 for newly created tasks.

This patch changes the rotor to be initialized to a random node number
of the cpuset.

Moving show_numa_map() from mempolicy.c to task_mmu.c solves several
issues.

  - Having the show() operation "miles away" from the corresponding
    seq_file iteration operations is a maintenance burden.

  - The need to export ad hoc info like struct proc_maps_private is
    eliminated.

  - The implementation of show_numa_map() can be improved in a simple
    manner by cooperating with the other seq_file operations (start,
    stop, etc) -- something that would be messy to do without this
    change.

Improve the prototype of gather_stats() to take a struct numa_maps as
argument instead of a generic void *.  Update all callers to make the
required type explicit.

Since gather_stats() is not needed before its definition and is scheduled
to be moved out of mempolicy.c the declaration is removed as well.

Converting show_numa_map() to use the generic routine decouples the
function from mempolicy.c, allowing it to be moved out of the mm subsystem
and into fs/proc.

Also, include KSM pages in /proc/pid/numa_maps statistics.  The pagewalk
logic implemented by check_pte_range() failed to account for such pages as
they were not applicable to the page migration case.

In commit 48fce342 ("mempolicies: unexport get_vma_policy()")
get_vma_policy() was marked static as all clients were local to
mempolicy.c.

However, the decision to generate /proc/pid/numa_maps in the numa memory
policy code and outside the procfs subsystem introduces an artificial
interdependency between the two systems.  Exporting get_vma_policy() once
again is the first step to clean up this interdependency.
