      radix-tree: introduce radix_tree_replace_clear_tags() · d604c324
      Matthew Wilcox 提交于
      In addition to replacing the entry, we also clear all associated tags.
      This is really a one-off special for page_cache_tree_delete() which had
      far too much detailed knowledge about how the radix tree works.
      
      For efficiency, factor node_tag_clear() out of radix_tree_tag_clear() It
      can be used by radix_tree_delete_item() as well as
      radix_tree_replace_clear_tags().

      mm: make faultaround produce old ptes · 5c0a85fa
      Kirill A. Shutemov 提交于
      Currently, faultaround code produces young pte.  This can screw up
      vmscan behaviour[1], as it makes vmscan think that these pages are hot
      and not push them out on first round.
      
      During sparse file access faultaround gets more pages mapped and all of
      them are young.  Under memory pressure, this makes vmscan swap out anon
      pages instead, or to drop other page cache pages which otherwise stay
      resident.
      
      Modify faultaround to produce old ptes, so they can easily be reclaimed
      under memory pressure.
      
      This can to some extend defeat the purpose of faultaround on machines
      without hardware accessed bit as it will not help us with reducing the
      number of minor page faults.
      
      We may want to disable faultaround on such machines altogether, but
      that's subject for separate patchset.

       "I tested 512M mmap sequential word read test on non-HW access bit

      mm: filemap: only do access activations on reads · bbddabe2
      Johannes Weiner 提交于
      Andres observed that his database workload is struggling with the
      transaction journal creating pressure on frequently read pages.
      
      Access patterns like transaction journals frequently write the same
      pages over and over, but in the majority of cases those pages are never
      read back.  There are no caching benefits to be had for those pages, so
      activating them and having them put pressure on pages that do benefit
      from caching is a bad choice.
      
      Leave page activations to read accesses and don't promote pages based on
      writes alone.
      
      It could be said that partially written pages do contain cache-worthy
      data, because even if *userspace* does not access the unwritten part,
      the kernel still has to read it from the filesystem for correctness.
      However, a counter argument is that these pages enjoy at least *some*
      protection over other inactive file pages through the writeback cache,
      in the sense that dirty pages are written back with a delay and cache
      reclaim leaves them alone until they have been written back to disk.
      Should that turn out to be insufficient and we see increased read IO
      from partial writes under memory pressure, we can always go back and
      update grab_cache_page_write_begin() to take (pos, len) so that it can
      tell partial writes from pages that don't need partial reads.  But for
      now, keep it simple.

      mm: workingset: only do workingset activations on reads · f0281a00
      Rik van Riel 提交于
      This is a follow-up to
      
        http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg101739.html
      
      where Andres reported his database workingset being pushed out by the
      minimum size enforcement of the inactive file list - currently 50% of
      cache - as well as repeatedly written file pages that are never actually
      read.
      
      Two changes fell out of the discussions.  The first change observes that
      pages that are only ever written don't benefit from caching beyond what
      the writeback cache does for partial page writes, and so we shouldn't
      promote them to the active file list where they compete with pages whose
      cached data is actually accessed repeatedly.  This change comes in two
      patches - one for in-cache write accesses and one for refaults triggered
      by writes, neither of which should promote a cache page.
      
      Second, with the refault detection we don't need to set 50% of the cache
      aside for used-once cache anymore since we can detect frequently used
      pages even when they are evicted between accesses.  We can allow the
      active list to be bigger and thus protect a bigger workingset that isn't
      challenged by streamers.  Depending on the access patterns, this can
      increase major faults during workingset transitions for better
      performance during stable phases.
      
      This patch (of 3):
      
      When rewriting a page, the data in that page is replaced with new data.
      This means that evicting something else from the active file list, in
      order to cache data that will be replaced by something else, is likely
      to be a waste of memory.
      
      It is better to save the active list for frequently read pages, because
      reads actually use the data that is in the page.
      
      This patch ignores partial writes, because it is unclear whether the
      complexity of identifying those is worth any potential performance gain
      obtained from better caching pages that see repeated partial writes at
      large enough intervals to not get caught by the use-twice promotion code
      used for the inactive file list.

      mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros · 09cbfeaf
      Kirill A. Shutemov 提交于
      PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
      ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
      cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
      
      This promise never materialized.  And unlikely will.
      
      We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
      PAGE_SIZE.  And it's constant source of confusion on whether
      PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
      especially on the border between fs and mm.
      
      Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
      breakage to be doable.
      
      Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special.  They are
      not.
      
      The changes are pretty straight-forward:
      
       - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
      
       - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
      
       - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};
      
       - page_cache_get() -> get_page();
      
       - page_cache_release() -> put_page();
      
      This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
      script below.  For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
      I've called spatch for them manually.
      
      The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
      PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.
      
      There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach.  I'll
      fix them manually in a separate patch.  Comments and documentation also
      will be addressed with the separate patch.

      mm/filemap: generic_file_read_iter(): check for zero reads unconditionally · e7080a43
      Nicolai Stange 提交于
      If
       - generic_file_read_iter() gets called with a zero read length,
       - the read offset is at a page boundary,
       - IOCB_DIRECT is not set
      -  and the page in question hasn't made it into the page cache yet,
      then do_generic_file_read() will trigger a readahead with a req_size hint
      of zero.
      
      Since roundup_pow_of_two(0) is undefined, UBSAN reports
      
        UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in include/linux/log2.h:63:13
        shift exponent 64 is too large for 64-bit type 'long unsigned int'

         [...]
      
      when get_init_ra_size() gets called from ondemand_readahead().
      
      The net effect is that the initial readahead size is arch dependent for
      requested read lengths of zero: for example, since
      
        1UL << (sizeof(unsigned long) * 8)
      
      evaluates to 1 on x86 while its result is 0 on ARMv7, the initial readahead
      size becomes 4 on the former and 0 on the latter.
      
      What's more, whether or not the file access timestamp is updated for zero
      length reads is decided differently for the two cases of IOCB_DIRECT
      being set or cleared: in the first case, generic_file_read_iter()
      explicitly skips updating that timestamp while in the latter case, it is
      always updated through the call to do_generic_file_read().
      
      According to POSIX, zero length reads "do not modify the last data access
      timestamp" and thus, the IOCB_DIRECT behaviour is POSIXly correct.
      
      Let generic_file_read_iter() unconditionally check the requested read
      length at its entry and return immediately with success if it is zero.

      radix_tree: add support for multi-order entries · e6145236
      Matthew Wilcox 提交于
      With huge pages, it is convenient to have the radix tree be able to
      return an entry that covers multiple indices.  Previous attempts to deal
      with the problem have involved inserting N duplicate entries, which is a
      waste of memory and leads to problems trying to handle aliased tags, or
      probing the tree multiple times to find alternative entries which might
      cover the requested index.
      
      This approach inserts one canonical entry into the tree for a given
      range of indices, and may also insert other entries in order to ensure
      that lookups find the canonical entry.
      
      This solution only tolerates inserting powers of two that are greater
      than the fanout of the tree.  If we wish to expand the radix tree's
      abilities to support large-ish pages that is less than the fanout at the
      penultimate level of the tree, then we would need to add one more step
      in lookup to ensure that any sibling nodes in the final level of the
      tree are dereferenced and we return the canonical entry that they
      reference.

      mm: __delete_from_page_cache show Bad page if mapped · 06b241f3
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      Commit e1534ae9 ("mm: differentiate page_mapped() from
      page_mapcount() for compound pages") changed the famous
      BUG_ON(page_mapped(page)) in __delete_from_page_cache() to
      VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_mapped(page)): which gives us more info when
      CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y, but nothing at all when not.
      
      Although it has not usually been very helpul, being hit long after the
      error in question, we do need to know if it actually happens on users'
      systems; but reinstating a crash there is likely to be opposed :)
      
      In the non-debug case, pr_alert("BUG: Bad page cache") plus dump_page(),
      dump_stack(), add_taint() - I don't really believe LOCKDEP_NOW_UNRELIABLE,
      but that seems to be the standard procedure now.  Move that, or the
      VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(), up before the deletion from tree: so that the
      unNULLified page->mapping gives a little more information.
      
      If the inode is being evicted (rather than truncated), it won't have any
      vmas left, so it's safe(ish) to assume that the raised mapcount is
      erroneous, and we can discount it from page_count to avoid leaking the
      page (I'm less worried by leaking the occasional 4kB, than losing a
      potential 2MB page with each 4kB page leaked).

      dax: move writeback calls into the filesystems · 7f6d5b52
      Ross Zwisler 提交于
      Previously calls to dax_writeback_mapping_range() for all DAX filesystems
      (ext2, ext4 & xfs) were centralized in filemap_write_and_wait_range().
      
      dax_writeback_mapping_range() needs a struct block_device, and it used
      to get that from inode->i_sb->s_bdev.  This is correct for normal inodes
      mounted on ext2, ext4 and XFS filesystems, but is incorrect for DAX raw
      block devices and for XFS real-time files.
      
      Instead, call dax_writeback_mapping_range() directly from the filesystem
      ->writepages function so that it can supply us with a valid block
      device.  This also fixes DAX code to properly flush caches in response
      to sync(2).

      dax: add support for fsync/sync · 9973c98e
      Ross Zwisler 提交于
      To properly handle fsync/msync in an efficient way DAX needs to track
      dirty pages so it is able to flush them durably to media on demand.
      
      The tracking of dirty pages is done via the radix tree in struct
      address_space.  This radix tree is already used by the page writeback
      infrastructure for tracking dirty pages associated with an open file,
      and it already has support for exceptional (non struct page*) entries.
      We build upon these features to add exceptional entries to the radix
      tree for DAX dirty PMD or PTE pages at fault time.

      find_get_entries(), find_get_pages() and find_get_pages_tag().  This is
      needed for DAX dirty page handling because we need a list of both page
      offsets and radix tree entries ('indices' and 'entries' in this
      function) that are marked with the PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE tag.

      dax: support dirty DAX entries in radix tree · f9fe48be
      Ross Zwisler 提交于
      Add support for tracking dirty DAX entries in the struct address_space
      radix tree.  This tree is already used for dirty page writeback, and it
      already supports the use of exceptional (non struct page*) entries.
      
      In order to properly track dirty DAX pages we will insert new
      exceptional entries into the radix tree that represent dirty DAX PTE or
      PMD pages.  These exceptional entries will also contain the writeback
      addresses for the PTE or PMD faults that we can use at fsync/msync time.
      
      There are currently two types of exceptional entries (shmem and shadow)
      that can be placed into the radix tree, and this adds a third.  We rely
      on the fact that only one type of exceptional entry can be found in a
      given radix tree based on its usage.  This happens for free with DAX vs
      shmem but we explicitly prevent shadow entries from being added to radix
      trees for DAX mappings.
      
      The only shadow entries that would be generated for DAX radix trees
      would be to track zero page mappings that were created for holes.  These
      pages would receive minimal benefit from having shadow entries, and the
      choice to have only one type of exceptional entry in a given radix tree
      makes the logic simpler both in clear_exceptional_entry() and in the
      rest of DAX.

      mm: differentiate page_mapped() from page_mapcount() for compound pages · e1534ae9
      Kirill A. Shutemov 提交于
      Let's define page_mapped() to be true for compound pages if any
      sub-pages of the compound page is mapped (with PMD or PTE).
      
      On other hand page_mapcount() return mapcount for this particular small
      page.
      
      This will make cases like page_get_anon_vma() behave correctly once we
      allow huge pages to be mapped with PTE.
      
      Most users outside core-mm should use page_mapcount() instead of
      page_mapped().

      memcg: adjust to support new THP refcounting · f627c2f5
      Kirill A. Shutemov 提交于
      As with rmap, with new refcounting we cannot rely on PageTransHuge() to
      check if we need to charge size of huge page form the cgroup.  We need
      to get information from caller to know whether it was mapped with PMD or
      PTE.
      
      We do uncharge when last reference on the page gone.  At that point if
      we see PageTransHuge() it means we need to unchange whole huge page.
      
      The tricky part is partial unmap -- when we try to unmap part of huge
      page.  We don't do a special handing of this situation, meaning we don't
      uncharge the part of huge page unless last user is gone or
      split_huge_page() is triggered.  In case of cgroup memory pressure
      happens the partial unmapped page will be split through shrinker.  This
      should be good enough.

      page-flags: define PG_locked behavior on compound pages · 48c935ad
      Kirill A. Shutemov 提交于
      lock_page() must operate on the whole compound page.  It doesn't make
      much sense to lock part of compound page.  Change code to use head
      page's PG_locked, if tail page is passed.
      
      This patch also gets rid of custom helper functions --
      __set_page_locked() and __clear_page_locked().  They are replaced with
      helpers generated by __SETPAGEFLAG/__CLEARPAGEFLAG.  Tail pages to these
      helper would trigger VM_BUG_ON().
      
      SLUB uses PG_locked as a bit spin locked.  IIUC, tail pages should never
      appear there.  VM_BUG_ON() is added to make sure that this assumption is
      correct.

      mm: allow GFP_{FS,IO} for page_cache_read page cache allocation · c20cd45e
      Michal Hocko 提交于
      page_cache_read has been historically using page_cache_alloc_cold to
      allocate a new page.  This means that mapping_gfp_mask is used as the
      base for the gfp_mask.  Many filesystems are setting this mask to
      GFP_NOFS to prevent from fs recursion issues.  page_cache_read is called
      from the vm_operations_struct::fault() context during the page fault.
      This context doesn't need the reclaim protection normally.
      
      ceph and ocfs2 which call filemap_fault from their fault handlers seem
      to be OK because they are not taking any fs lock before invoking generic
      implementation.  xfs which takes XFS_MMAPLOCK_SHARED is safe from the
      reclaim recursion POV because this lock serializes truncate and punch
      hole with the page faults and it doesn't get involved in the reclaim.
      
      There is simply no reason to deliberately use a weaker allocation
      context when a __GFP_FS | __GFP_IO can be used.  The GFP_NOFS protection
      might be even harmful.  There is a push to fail GFP_NOFS allocations
      rather than loop within allocator indefinitely with a very limited
      reclaim ability.  Once we start failing those requests the OOM killer
      might be triggered prematurely because the page cache allocation failure
      is propagated up the page fault path and end up in
      pagefault_out_of_memory.
      
      We cannot play with mapping_gfp_mask directly because that would be racy
      wrt.  parallel page faults and it might interfere with other users who
      really rely on NOFS semantic from the stored gfp_mask.  The mask is also
      inode proper so it would even be a layering violation.  What we can do
      instead is to push the gfp_mask into struct vm_fault and allow fs layer
      to overwrite it should the callback need to be called with a different
      allocation context.
      
      Initialize the default to (mapping_gfp_mask | __GFP_FS | __GFP_IO)
      because this should be safe from the page fault path normally.  Why do
      we care about mapping_gfp_mask at all then? Because this doesn't hold
      only reclaim protection flags but it also might contain zone and
      movability restrictions (GFP_DMA32, __GFP_MOVABLE and others) so we have
      to respect those.

      mm/filemap.c: make global sync not clear error status of individual inodes · aa750fd7
      Junichi Nomura 提交于
      filemap_fdatawait() is a function to wait for on-going writeback to
      complete but also consume and clear error status of the mapping set during
      writeback.
      
      The latter functionality is critical for applications to detect writeback
      error with system calls like fsync(2)/fdatasync(2).
      
      However filemap_fdatawait() is also used by sync(2) or FIFREEZE ioctl,
      which don't check error status of individual mappings.
      
      As a result, fsync() may not be able to detect writeback error if events
      happen in the following order:
      
         Application                    System admin
         ----------------------------------------------------------
         write data on page cache
                                        Run sync command
                                        writeback completes with error
                                        filemap_fdatawait() clears error
         fsync returns success
         (but the data is not on disk)
      
      This patch adds filemap_fdatawait_keep_errors() for call sites where
      writeback error is not handled so that they don't clear error status.
