      tmpfs: depend on shmem · 3f96b79a
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      CONFIG_SHMEM off gives you (ramfs masquerading as) tmpfs, even when
      CONFIG_TMPFS is off: that's a little anomalous, and I'd intended to make
      more sense of it by removing CONFIG_TMPFS altogether, always enabling its
      code when CONFIG_SHMEM; but so many defconfigs have CONFIG_SHMEM on
      CONFIG_TMPFS off that we'd better leave that as is.
      
      But there is no point in asking for CONFIG_TMPFS if CONFIG_SHMEM is off:
      make TMPFS depend on SHMEM, which also prevents TMPFS_POSIX_ACL
      shmem_acl.o being pointlessly built into the kernel when SHMEM is off.
      
      And a selfish change, to prevent the world from being rebuilt when I
      switch between CONFIG_SHMEM on and off: the only CONFIG_SHMEM in the
      header files is mm.h shmem_lock() - give that a shmem.c stub instead.

      mm: add_to_swap_cache() does not return -EEXIST · 2ca4532a
      Daisuke Nishimura 提交于
      After commit 355cfa73 ("mm: modify swap_map and add SWAP_HAS_CACHE flag"),
      only the context which have set SWAP_HAS_CACHE flag by swapcache_prepare()
      or get_swap_page() would call add_to_swap_cache().  So add_to_swap_cache()
      doesn't return -EEXIST any more.
      
      Even though it doesn't return -EEXIST, it's not good behavior conceptually
      to call swapcache_prepare() in the -EEXIST case, because it means clearing
      SWAP_HAS_CACHE flag while the entry is on swap cache.
      
      This patch removes redundant codes and comments from callers of it, and
      adds VM_BUG_ON() in error path of add_to_swap_cache() and some comments.

      HWPOISON: Enable .remove_error_page for migration aware file systems · aa261f54

      Enable removing of corrupted pages through truncation

      HWPOISON: shmem: call set_page_dirty() with locked page · 6746aff7
      Wu Fengguang 提交于
      The dirtying of page and set_page_dirty() can be moved into the page lock.
      
      - In shmem_write_end(), the page was dirtied while the page lock was held,
        but it's being marked dirty just after dropping the page lock.
      - In shmem_symlink(), both dirtying and marking can be moved into page lock.
      
      It's valuable for the hwpoison code to know whether one bad page can be dropped
      without losing data. It mainly judges by testing the PG_dirty bit after taking
      the page lock. So it becomes important that the dirtying of page and the
      marking of dirtiness are both done inside the page lock. Which is a common
      practice, but sadly not a rule.
      
      The noticeable exceptions are
      - mapped pages
      - pages with buffer_heads
      The above pages could go dirty at any time. Fortunately the hwpoison will
      unmap the page and release the buffer_heads beforehand anyway.
      
      Many other types of pages (eg. metadata pages) can also be dirtied at will by
      their owners, the hwpoison code cannot do meaningful things to them anyway.
      Only the dirtiness of pagecache pages owned by regular files are interested.

      Driver Core: devtmpfs - kernel-maintained tmpfs-based /dev · 2b2af54a
      Kay Sievers 提交于
      Devtmpfs lets the kernel create a tmpfs instance called devtmpfs
      very early at kernel initialization, before any driver-core device
      is registered. Every device with a major/minor will provide a
      device node in devtmpfs.
      
      Devtmpfs can be changed and altered by userspace at any time,
      and in any way needed - just like today's udev-mounted tmpfs.
      Unmodified udev versions will run just fine on top of it, and will
      recognize an already existing kernel-created device node and use it.
      The default node permissions are root:root 0600. Proper permissions
      and user/group ownership, meaningful symlinks, all other policy still
      needs to be applied by userspace.
      
      If a node is created by devtmps, devtmpfs will remove the device node
      when the device goes away. If the device node was created by
      userspace, or the devtmpfs created node was replaced by userspace, it
      will no longer be removed by devtmpfs.
      
      If it is requested to auto-mount it, it makes init=/bin/sh work
      without any further userspace support. /dev will be fully populated
      and dynamic, and always reflect the current device state of the kernel.
      With the commonly used dynamic device numbers, it solves the problem
      where static devices nodes may point to the wrong devices.
      
      It is intended to make the initial bootup logic simpler and more robust,
      by de-coupling the creation of the inital environment, to reliably run
      userspace processes, from a complex userspace bootstrap logic to provide
      a working /dev.

      memcg: fix mem_cgroup_shrink_usage() · ae3abae6
      Daisuke Nishimura 提交于
      Current mem_cgroup_shrink_usage() has two problems.
      
      1. It doesn't call mem_cgroup_out_of_memory and doesn't update
         last_oom_jiffies, so pagefault_out_of_memory invokes global OOM.
      
      2. Considering hierarchy, shrinking has to be done from the
         mem_over_limit, not from the memcg which the page would be charged to.
      
      mem_cgroup_try_charge_swapin() does all of these things properly, so we
      use it and call cancel_charge_swapin when it succeeded.
      
      The name of "shrink_usage" is not appropriate for this behavior, so we
      change it too.

      shmem: respect MAX_LFS_FILESIZE · caefba17
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      SHMEM_MAX_BYTES was derived from the maximum size of its triple-indirect
      swap vector, forgetting to take the MAX_LFS_FILESIZE limit into account.
      Never mind 256kB pages, even 8kB pages on 32-bit kernels allowed files to
      grow slightly bigger than that supposed maximum.
      
      Fix this by using the min of both (at build time not run time).  And it
      happens that this calculation is good as far as 8MB pages on 32-bit or
      16MB pages on 64-bit: though SHMSWP_MAX_INDEX gets truncated before that,
      it's truncated to such large numbers that we don't need to care.

      shmem: writepage directly to swap · 9fab5619
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      Synopsis: if shmem_writepage calls swap_writepage directly, most shmem
      swap loads benefit, and a catastrophic interaction between SLUB and some
      flash storage is avoided.
      
      shmem_writepage() has always been peculiar in making no attempt to write:
      it has just transferred a shmem page from file cache to swap cache, then
      let that page make its way around the LRU again before being written and
      freed.
      
      The idea was that people use tmpfs because they want those pages to stay
      in RAM; so although we give it an overflow to swap, we should resist
      writing too soon, giving those pages a second chance before they can be
      reclaimed.
      
      That was always questionable, and I've toyed with this patch for years;
      but never had a clear justification to depart from the original design.
      
      It became more questionable in 2.6.28, when the split LRU patches classed
      shmem and tmpfs pages as SwapBacked rather than as file_cache: that in
      itself gives them more resistance to reclaim than normal file pages.  I
      prepared this patch for 2.6.29, but the merge window arrived before I'd
      completed gathering statistics to justify sending it in.
      
      Then while comparing SLQB against SLUB, running SLUB on a laptop I'd
      habitually used with SLAB, I found SLUB to run my tmpfs kbuild swapping
      tests five times slower than SLAB or SLQB - other machines slower too, but
      nowhere near so bad.  Simpler "cp -a" swapping tests showed the same.
      
      slub_max_order=0 brings sanity to all, but heavy swapping is too far from
      normal to justify such a tuning.  The crucial factor on that laptop turns
      out to be that I'm using an SD card for swap.  What happens is this:
      
      By default, SLUB uses order-2 pages for shmem_inode_cache (and many other
      fs inodes), so creating tmpfs files under memory pressure brings lumpy
      reclaim into play.  One subpage of the order is chosen from the bottom of
      the LRU as usual, then the other three picked out from their random
      positions on the LRUs.
      
      In a tmpfs load, many of these pages will be ones which already passed
      through shmem_writepage, so already have swap allocated.  And though their
      offsets on swap were probably allocated sequentially, now that the pages
      are picked off at random, their swap offsets are scattered.
      
      But the flash storage on the SD card is very sensitive to having its
      writes merged: once swap is written at scattered offsets, performance
      falls apart.  Rotating disk seeks increase too, but less disastrously.
      
      So: stop giving shmem/tmpfs pages a second pass around the LRU, write them
      out to swap as soon as their swap has been allocated.
      
      It's surely possible to devise an artificial load which runs faster the
      old way, one whose sizing is such that the tmpfs pages on their second
      pass are the ones that are wanted again, and other pages not.
      
      But I've not yet found such a load: on all machines, under the loads I've
      tried, immediate swap_writepage speeds up shmem swapping: especially when
      using the SLUB allocator (and more effectively than slub_max_order=0), but
      also with the others; and it also reduces the variance between runs.  How
      much faster varies widely: a factor of five is rare, 5% is common.
      
      One load which might have suffered: imagine a swapping shmem load in a
      limited mem_cgroup on a machine with plenty of memory.  Before 2.6.29 the
      swapcache was not charged, and such a load would have run quickest with
      the shmem swapcache never written to swap.  But now swapcache is charged,
      so even this load benefits from shmem_writepage directly to swap.
      
      Apologies for the #ifndef CONFIG_SWAP swap_writepage() stub in swap.h:
      it's silly because that will never get called; but refactoring shmem.c
      sensibly according to CONFIG_SWAP will be a separate task.

      It's all clearer if we switch shmem.c over to use VM_NORESERVE
      throughout in place of !VM_ACCOUNT.
      
      But I very nearly sent in a patch which mistakenly removed the
      accounting from tmpfs files: shmem_get_inode()'s memset was good for not
      setting VM_ACCOUNT, but now it needs to set VM_NORESERVE.
      
      Rather than setting that by default, then perhaps clearing it again in
      shmem_file_setup(), let's pass it as a flag to shmem_get_inode(): that
      allows us to remove the #ifdef CONFIG_SHMEM from shmem_file_setup().

      Integrity: IMA file free imbalance · 1df9f0a7
      Mimi Zohar 提交于
      The number of calls to ima_path_check()/ima_file_free()
      should be balanced.  An extra call to fput(), indicates
      the file could have been accessed without first being
      measured.
      
      Although f_count is incremented/decremented in places other
      than fget/fput, like fget_light/fput_light and get_file, the
      current task must already hold a file refcnt.  The call to
      __fput() is delayed until the refcnt becomes 0, resulting
      in ima_file_free() flagging any changes.
      
      - add hook to increment opencount for IPC shared memory(SYSV),
        shmat files, and /dev/zero
      - moved NULL iint test in opencount_get()

      Stop playing silly games with the VM_ACCOUNT flag · fc8744ad
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      The mmap_region() code would temporarily set the VM_ACCOUNT flag for
      anonymous shared mappings just to inform shmem_zero_setup() that it
      should enable accounting for the resulting shm object.  It would then
      clear the flag after calling ->mmap (for the /dev/zero case) or doing
      shmem_zero_setup() (for the MAP_ANON case).
      
      This just resulted in vma merge issues, but also made for just
      unnecessary confusion.  Use the already-existing VM_NORESERVE flag for
      this instead, and let shmem_{zero|file}_setup() just figure it out from
      that.
      
      This also happens to make it obvious that the new DRI2 GEM layer uses a
      non-reserving backing store for its object allocation - which is quite
      possibly not intentional.  But since I didn't want to change semantics
      in this patch, I left it alone, and just updated the caller to use the
      new flag semantics.

      memcg: fix shmem's swap accounting · b5a84319
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 提交于
      Now, you can see following even when swap accounting is enabled.
      
       1. Create Group 01, and 02.
       2. allocate a "file" on tmpfs by a task under 01.
       3. swap out the "file" (by memory pressure)
       4. Read "file" from a task in group 02.
       5. the charge of "file" is moved to group 02.
      
      This is not ideal behavior. This is because SwapCache which was loaded
      by read-ahead is not taken into account..
      
      This is a patch to fix shmem's swapcache behavior.
        - remove mem_cgroup_cache_charge_swapin().
        - Add SwapCache handler routine to mem_cgroup_cache_charge().
          By this, shmem's file cache is charged at add_to_page_cache()
          with GFP_NOWAIT.
        - pass the page of swapcache to shrink_mem_cgroup.

      memcg: revert gfp mask fix · 2c26fdd7
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 提交于
      My patch, memcg-fix-gfp_mask-of-callers-of-charge.patch changed gfp_mask
      of callers of charge to be GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE for showing what will
      happen at memory reclaim.
      
      But in recent discussion, it's NACKed because it sounds ugly.
      
      This patch is for reverting it and add some clean up to gfp_mask of
      callers of charge.  No behavior change but need review before generating
      HUNK in deep queue.
      
      This patch also adds explanation to meaning of gfp_mask passed to charge
      functions in memcontrol.h.

      memcg: handle swap caches · d13d1443
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 提交于
      SwapCache support for memory resource controller (memcg)
      
      Before mem+swap controller, memcg itself should handle SwapCache in proper
      way.  This is cut-out from it.
      
      In current memcg, SwapCache is just leaked and the user can create tons of
      SwapCache.  This is a leak of account and should be handled.
      
      SwapCache accounting is done as following.
      
        charge (anon)
      	- charged when it's mapped.
      	  (because of readahead, charge at add_to_swap_cache() is not sane)
        uncharge (anon)
      	- uncharged when it's dropped from swapcache and fully unmapped.
      	  means it's not uncharged at unmap.
      	  Note: delete from swap cache at swap-in is done after rmap information
      	        is established.
        charge (shmem)
      	- charged at swap-in. this prevents charge at add_to_page_cache().
      
        uncharge (shmem)
      	- uncharged when it's dropped from swapcache and not on shmem's
      	  radix-tree.
      
        at migration, check against 'old page' is modified to handle shmem.
      
      Comparing to the old version discussed (and caused troubles), we have
      advantages of
        - PCG_USED bit.
        - simple migrating handling.
      
      So, situation is much easier than several months ago, maybe.

      memcg: fix gfp_mask of callers of charge · bced0520
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 提交于
      Fix misuse of gfp_kernel.
      
      Now, most of callers of mem_cgroup_charge_xxx functions uses GFP_KERNEL.
      
      I think that this is from the fact that page_cgroup *was* dynamically
      allocated.
      
      But now, we allocate all page_cgroup at boot.  And
      mem_cgroup_try_to_free_pages() reclaim memory from GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE +
      specified GFP_RECLAIM_MASK.
      
        * This is because we just want to reduce memory usage.
          "Where we should reclaim from ?" is not a problem in memcg.
      
      This patch modifies gfp masks to be GFP_HIGUSER_MOVABLE if possible.
      
      Note: This patch is not for fixing behavior but for showing sane information
            in source code.
