      That static `nid' index needs locking.  Without it we can end up calling
alloc_pages_node() with an illegal node ID and the kernel crashes.

      slob: improved alignment handling · 55394849
      由 Nick Piggin 提交于 
      Remove the core slob allocator's minimum alignment restrictions, and instead
introduce the alignment restrictions at the slab API layer.  This lets us heed
the ARCH_KMALLOC/SLAB_MINALIGN directives, and also use __alignof__ (unsigned
long) for the default alignment (which should allow relaxed alignment
architectures to take better advantage of SLOB's small minimum alignment).

      slob: remove bigblock tracking · d87a133f
      由 Nick Piggin 提交于 
      Remove the bigblock lists in favour of using compound pages and going directly
to the page allocator.  Allocation size is stored in page->private, which also
makes ksize more accurate than it previously was.

Saves ~.5K of code, and 12-24 bytes overhead per >= PAGE_SIZE allocation.

      slob: rework freelist handling · 95b35127
      由 Nick Piggin 提交于 
      Improve slob by turning the freelist into a list of pages using struct page
fields, then each page has a singly linked freelist of slob blocks via a
pointer in the struct page.

- The first benefit is that the slob freelists can be indexed by a smaller
  type (2 bytes, if the PAGE_SIZE is reasonable).

- Next is that freeing is much quicker because it does not have to traverse
  the entire freelist. Allocation can be slightly faster too, because we can
  skip almost-full freelist pages completely.

- Slob pages are then freed immediately when they become empty, rather than
  having a periodic timer try to free them. This gives efficiency and memory
  consumption improvement.

Then, we don't encode seperate size and next fields into each slob block,
rather we use the sign bit to distinguish between "size" or "next". Then
size 1 blocks contain a "next" offset, and others contain the "size" in
the first unit and "next" in the second unit.

- This allows minimum slob allocation alignment to go from 8 bytes to 2
  bytes on 32-bit and 12 bytes to 2 bytes on 64-bit. In practice, it is
  best to align them to word size, however some architectures (eg. cris)
  could gain space savings from turning off this extra alignment.

Then, make kmalloc use its own slob_block at the front of the allocation
in order to encode allocation size, rather than rely on not overwriting
slob's existing header block.

- This reduces kmalloc allocation overhead similarly to alignment reductions.

- Decouples kmalloc layer from the slob allocator.

Then, add a page flag specific to slob pages.

- This means kfree of a page aligned slob block doesn't have to traverse
  the bigblock list.

I would get benchmarks, but my test box's network doesn't come up with
slob before this patch. I think something is timing out. Anyway, things
are faster after the patch.

Code size goes up about 1K, however dynamic memory usage _should_ be
lower even on relatively small memory systems.

Future todo item is to restore the cyclic free list search, rather than
to always begin at the start.

      MM: alloc_large_system_hash() can free some memory for non power-of-two bucketsize · 1037b83b
      由 Eric Dumazet 提交于 
      alloc_large_system_hash() is called at boot time to allocate space for
several large hash tables.

Lately, TCP hash table was changed and its bucketsize is not a power-of-two
anymore.

On most setups, alloc_large_system_hash() allocates one big page (order >
0) with __get_free_pages(GFP_ATOMIC, order).  This single high_order page
has a power-of-two size, bigger than the needed size.

We can free all pages that wont be used by the hash table.

On a 1GB i386 machine, this patch saves 128 KB of LOWMEM memory.

      change zonelist order: zonelist order selection logic · f0c0b2b8
      由 KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 提交于 
      Make zonelist creation policy selectable from sysctl/boot option v6.

This patch makes NUMA's zonelist (of pgdat) order selectable.
Available order are Default(automatic)/ Node-based / Zone-based.

[Default Order]
The kernel selects Node-based or Zone-based order automatically.

[Node-based Order]
This policy treats the locality of memory as the most important parameter.
Zonelist order is created by each zone's locality. This means lower zones
(ex. ZONE_DMA) can be used before higher zone (ex. ZONE_NORMAL) exhausion.
IOW. ZONE_DMA will be in the middle of zonelist.
current 2.6.21 kernel uses this.

Pros.
 * A user can expect local memory as much as possible.
Cons.
 * lower zone will be exhansted before higher zone. This may cause OOM_KILL.

Maybe suitable if ZONE_DMA is relatively big and you never see OOM_KILL
because of ZONE_DMA exhaution and you need the best locality.

(example)
assume 2 node NUMA. node(0) has ZONE_DMA/ZONE_NORMAL, node(1) has ZONE_NORMAL.

*node(0)'s memory allocation order:

 node(0)'s NORMAL -> node(0)'s DMA -> node(1)'s NORMAL.

*node(1)'s memory allocation order:

 node(1)'s NORMAL -> node(0)'s NORMAL -> node(0)'s DMA.

[Zone-based order]
This policy treats the zone type as the most important parameter.
Zonelist order is created by zone-type order. This means lower zone
never be used bofere higher zone exhaustion.
IOW. ZONE_DMA will be always at the tail of zonelist.

Pros.
 * OOM_KILL(bacause of lower zone) occurs only if the whole zones are exhausted.
Cons.
 * memory locality may not be best.

(example)
assume 2 node NUMA. node(0) has ZONE_DMA/ZONE_NORMAL, node(1) has ZONE_NORMAL.

*node(0)'s memory allocation order:

 node(0)'s NORMAL -> node(1)'s NORMAL -> node(0)'s DMA.

*node(1)'s memory allocation order:

 node(1)'s NORMAL -> node(0)'s NORMAL -> node(0)'s DMA.

bootoption "numa_zonelist_order=" and proc/sysctl is supporetd.

command:
%echo N > /proc/sys/vm/numa_zonelist_order

Will rebuild zonelist in Node-based order.

command:
%echo Z > /proc/sys/vm/numa_zonelist_order

Will rebuild zonelist in Zone-based order.

      security: Protection for exploiting null dereference using mmap · ed032189
      由 Eric Paris 提交于 
      Add a new security check on mmap operations to see if the user is attempting
to mmap to low area of the address space.  The amount of space protected is
indicated by the new proc tunable /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr and defaults to
0, preserving existing behavior.

This patch uses a new SELinux security class "memprotect."  Policy already
contains a number of allow rules like a_t self:process * (unconfined_t being
one of them) which mean that putting this check in the process class (its
best current fit) would make it useless as all user processes, which we also
want to protect against, would be allowed. By taking the memprotect name of
the new class it will also make it possible for us to move some of the other
memory protect permissions out of 'process' and into the new class next time
we bump the policy version number (which I also think is a good future idea)

      xip sendfile removal · d054fe3d
      由 Carsten Otte 提交于 
      This patch removes xip_file_sendfile, the sendfile implementation for
xip without replacement. Those customers that use xip on s390 are not
using sendfile() as far as we know, and so far s390 is the only platform
this could potentially be used on so far.
Having sendfile is not a popular feature for execute in place file
systems, however we have a working implementation of splice_read() based
on fs/splice.c if anyone asks for it.
At this point in time, it does not seem preferable to merge
splice_read() for xip because it causes extra maintenence effort due to
code duplication and it requires struct page behind the xip memory
segment. We'd like to get rid of that in favor of supporting flash based
embedded platforms (Monta Vista work) soon.

      Fix slab redzone alignment · 87a927c7
      由 David Woodhouse 提交于 
      Commit b46b8f19 fixed a couple of bugs
by switching the redzone to 64 bits. Unfortunately, it neglected to
ensure that the _second_ redzone, after the slab object, is aligned
correctly. This caused illegal instruction faults on sparc32, which for
some reason not entirely clear to me are not trapped and fixed up.

Two things need to be done to fix this:
  - increase the object size, rounding up to alignof(long long) so
    that the second redzone can be aligned correctly.
  - If SLAB_STORE_USER is set but alignof(long long)==8, allow a
    full 64 bits of space for the user word at the end of the buffer,
    even though we may not _use_ the whole 64 bits.

This patch should be a no-op on any 64-bit architecture or any 32-bit
architecture where alignof(long long) == 4. Of the others, it's tested
on ppc32 by myself and a very similar patch was tested on sparc32 by
Mark Fortescue, who reported the new problem.

Also, fix the conditions for FORCED_DEBUG, which hadn't been adjusted to
the new sizes. Again noticed by Mark.

      mm: kill validate_anon_vma to avoid mapcount BUG · 30acbaba
      由 Hugh Dickins 提交于 
      validate_anon_vma gave a useful check on the integrity of the anon_vma list
when Andrea was developing obj rmap; but it was not enabled in SLES9
itself, nor in mainline, until Nick changed commented-out RMAP_DEBUG to
configurable CONFIG_DEBUG_VM in 2.6.17.  Now Petr Vandrovec reports that
its BUG_ON(mapcount > 100000) can easily crash a CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y system.

That limit was just an arbitrary number to protect against an infinite
loop.  We could raise it to something enormous (depending on sizeof struct
vma and size of memory?); but I rather think validate_anon_vma has outlived
its usefulness, and is better just removed - which gives a magnificent
performance boost to anything like Petr's test program ;)

Of course, a very long anon_vma list is bad news for preemption latency,
and I believe there has been one recent report of such: let's not forget
that, but validate_anon_vma only makes it worse not better.

      mm: Fix memory/cpu hotplug section mismatch and oops. · d09c6b80
      由 Paul Mundt 提交于 
      When building with memory hotplug enabled and cpu hotplug disabled, we
end up with the following section mismatch:

WARNING: mm/built-in.o(.text+0x4e58): Section mismatch: reference to
.init.text: (between 'free_area_init_node' and '__build_all_zonelists')

This happens as a result of:

        -> free_area_init_node()
          -> free_area_init_core()
            -> zone_pcp_init() <-- all __meminit up to this point
              -> zone_batchsize() <-- marked as __cpuinit                     fo

This happens because CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n sets __cpuinit to __init, but
CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=y unsets __meminit.

Changing zone_batchsize() to __devinit fixes this.

__devinit is the only thing that is common between CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y and
CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG=y. In the long run, perhaps this should be moved to
another section identifier completely. Without this, memory hot-add
of offline nodes (via hotadd_new_pgdat()) will oops if CPU hotplug is
not also enabled.

      Detach sched.h from mm.h · e8edc6e0
      由 Alexey Dobriyan 提交于 
      First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.

This patch
a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
   getting them indirectly

Net result is:
a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
   they don't need sched.h
b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
   on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
   after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).
