2017-05-03mm: delete unnecessary TTU_* flagsShaohua Li
Patch series "mm: fix some MADV_FREE issues", v5. We are trying to use MADV_FREE in jemalloc. Several issues are found. Without solving the issues, jemalloc can't use the MADV_FREE feature. - Doesn't support system without swap enabled. Because if swap is off, we can't or can't efficiently age anonymous pages. And since MADV_FREE pages are mixed with other anonymous pages, we can't reclaim MADV_FREE pages. In current implementation, MADV_FREE will fallback to MADV_DONTNEED without swap enabled. But in our environment, a lot of machines don't enable swap. This will prevent our setup using MADV_FREE. - Increases memory pressure. page reclaim bias file pages reclaim against anonymous pages. This doesn't make sense for MADV_FREE pages, because those pages could be freed easily and refilled with very slight penality. Even page reclaim doesn't bias file pages, there is still an issue, because MADV_FREE pages and other anonymous pages are mixed together. To reclaim a MADV_FREE page, we probably must scan a lot of other anonymous pages, which is inefficient. In our test, we usually see oom with MADV_FREE enabled and nothing without it. - Accounting. There are two accounting problems. We don't have a global accounting. If the system is abnormal, we don't know if it's a problem from MADV_FREE side. The other problem is RSS accounting. MADV_FREE pages are accounted as normal anon pages and reclaimed lazily, so application's RSS becomes bigger. This confuses our workloads. We have monitoring daemon running and if it finds applications' RSS becomes abnormal, the daemon will kill the applications even kernel can reclaim the memory easily. To address the first the two issues, we can either put MADV_FREE pages into a separate LRU list (Minchan's previous patches and V1 patches), or put them into LRU_INACTIVE_FILE list (suggested by Johannes). The patchset use the second idea. The reason is LRU_INACTIVE_FILE list is tiny nowadays and should be full of used once file pages. So we can still efficiently reclaim MADV_FREE pages there without interference with other anon and active file pages. Putting the pages into inactive file list also has an advantage which allows page reclaim to prioritize MADV_FREE pages and used once file pages. MADV_FREE pages are put into the lru list and clear SwapBacked flag, so PageAnon(page) && !PageSwapBacked(page) will indicate a MADV_FREE pages. These pages will directly freed without pageout if they are clean, otherwise normal swap will reclaim them. For the third issue, the previous post adds global accounting and a separate RSS count for MADV_FREE pages. The problem is we never get accurate accounting for MADV_FREE pages. The pages are mapped to userspace, can be dirtied without notice from kernel side. To get accurate accounting, we could write protect the page, but then there is extra page fault overhead, which people don't want to pay. Jemalloc guys have concerns about the inaccurate accounting, so this post drops the accounting patches temporarily. The info exported to /proc/pid/smaps for MADV_FREE pages are kept, which is the only place we can get accurate accounting right now. This patch (of 6): Johannes pointed out TTU_LZFREE is unnecessary. It's true because we always have the flag set if we want to do an unmap. For cases we don't do an unmap, the TTU_LZFREE part of code should never run. Also the TTU_UNMAP is unnecessary. If no other flags set (for example, TTU_MIGRATION), an unmap is implied. The patch includes Johannes's cleanup and dead TTU_ACTION macro removal code Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/4be3ea1bc56b26fd98a54d0a6f70bec63f6d8980.1487965799.git.shli@fb.com Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shli@fb.com> Suggested-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> Acked-by: Hillf Danton <hillf.zj@alibaba-inc.com> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2017-04-18mm: Rename SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCUPaul E. McKenney
A group of Linux kernel hackers reported chasing a bug that resulted from their assumption that SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU provided an existence guarantee, that is, that no block from such a slab would be reallocated during an RCU read-side critical section. Of course, that is not the case. Instead, SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU only prevents freeing of an entire slab of blocks. However, there is a phrase for this, namely "type safety". This commit therefore renames SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU in order to avoid future instances of this sort of confusion. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2017-02-24mm: fix handling PTE-mapped THPs in page_referenced()Kirill A. Shutemov
For PTE-mapped THP page_check_address_transhuge() is not adequate: it cannot find all relevant PTEs, only the first one. It means we can miss some references of the page and it can result in suboptimal decisions by vmscan. Let's switch it to page_vma_mapped_walk(). I don't think it's subject for stable@: it's not fatal. The only side effect is that THP can be swapped out when it shouldn't.

We could turn the condition around and return 0, but it also makes sense to do it inline and avoid a call for the common case.

PageTransCompound() doesn't distinguish THP from from any other type of compound pages. This can lead to false-positive VM_BUG_ON() in page_add_file_rmap() if called on compound page from a driver[1]. I think we can exclude such cases by checking if the page belong to a mapping. The VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() is downgraded to VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(). This path should not cause any harm to non-THP page, but good to know if we step on anything else.

2016-07-28mm: move most file-based accounting to the nodeMel Gorman
There are now a number of accounting oddities such as mapped file pages being accounted for on the node while the total number of file pages are accounted on the zone. This can be coped with to some extent but it's confusing so this patch moves the relevant file-based accounted. Due to throttling logic in the page allocator for reliable OOM detection, it is still necessary to track dirty and writeback pages on a per-zone basis.

2016-07-26thp, mlock: do not mlock PTE-mapped file huge pagesKirill A. Shutemov
As with anon THP, we only mlock file huge pages if we can prove that the page is not mapped with PTE. This way we can avoid mlock leak into non-mlocked vma on split. We rely on PageDoubleMap() under lock_page() to check if the the page may be PTE mapped. PG_double_map is set by page_add_file_rmap() when the page mapped with PTEs.

We can look into optimization later. PG_double_map optimization doesn't work for file pages since lifecycle of file pages is different comparing to anon pages: file page can be mapped again at any time.

2016-07-15mm: thp: refix false positive BUG in page_move_anon_rmap()Hugh Dickins
The VM_BUG_ON_PAGE in page_move_anon_rmap() is more trouble than it's worth: the syzkaller fuzzer hit it again. It's still wrong for some THP cases, because linear_page_index() was never intended to apply to addresses before the start of a vma. That's easily fixed with a signed long cast inside linear_page_index(); and Dmitry has tested such a patch, to verify the false positive. But why extend linear_page_index() just for this case? when the avoidance in page_move_anon_rmap() has already grown ugly, and there's no reason for the check at all (nothing else there is using address or index). Remove address arg from page_move_anon_rmap(), remove VM_BUG_ON_PAGE, remove CONFIG_DEBUG_VM PageTransHuge adjustment. And one more thing: should the compound_head(page) be done inside or outside page_move_anon_rmap()? It's usually pushed down to the lowest level nowadays (and mm/memory.c shows no other explicit use of it), so I think it's better done in page_move_anon_rmap() than by caller.

2016-07-15mm: rmap: call page_check_address() with sync enabled to avoid racy checkNaoya Horiguchi
The previous patch addresses the race between split_huge_pmd_address() and someone changing the pmd. The fix is only for splitting of normal thp (i.e. pmd-mapped thp,) and for splitting of pte-mapped thp there still is the similar race. For splitting pte-mapped thp, the pte's conversion is done by try_to_unmap_one(TTU_MIGRATION). This function checks page_check_address() to get the target pte, but it can return NULL under some race, leading to VM_BUG_ON() in freeze_page(). Fortunately, page_check_address() already has an argument to decide whether we do a quick/racy check or not, so let's flip it when called from freeze_page().

2016-05-19mm: use __SetPageSwapBacked and dont ClearPageSwapBackedHugh Dickins
v3.16 commit 07a427884348 ("mm: shmem: avoid atomic operation during shmem_getpage_gfp") rightly replaced one instance of SetPageSwapBacked by __SetPageSwapBacked, pointing out that the newly allocated page is not yet visible to other users (except speculative get_page_unless_zero- ers, who may not update page flags before their further checks). That was part of a series in which Mel was focused on tmpfs profiles: but almost all SetPageSwapBacked uses can be so optimized, with the same justification. Remove ClearPageSwapBacked from __read_swap_cache_async() error path: it's not an error to free a page with PG_swapbacked set. Follow a convention of __SetPageLocked, __SetPageSwapBacked instead of doing it differently in different places; but that's for tidiness - if the ordering actually mattered, we should not be using the __variants. There's probably scope for further __SetPageFlags in other places, but SwapBacked is the one I'm interested in at the moment. Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: "Kirill A.

2016-04-04mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macrosKirill A. Shutemov
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. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

However, it does wrong accounting of interrupts (e.g., inc_irq_stat is called for local invalidations), trace-points (e.g., TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN for local invalidations) and may break some platforms as it bypasses the invalidation mechanisms of Xen and SGI UV.

2016-03-17thp: rewrite freeze_page()/unfreeze_page() with generic rmap walkersKirill A. Shutemov
freeze_page() and unfreeze_page() helpers evolved in rather complex beasts. It would be nice to cut complexity of this code. This patch rewrites freeze_page() using standard try_to_unmap(). unfreeze_page() is rewritten with remove_migration_ptes(). The result is much simpler. But the new variant is somewhat slower for PTE-mapped THPs. Current helpers iterates over VMAs the compound page is mapped to, and then over ptes within this VMA. New helpers iterates over small page, then over VMA the small page mapped to, and only then find relevant pte. We have short cut for PMD-mapped THP: we directly install migration entries on PMD split. I don't think the slowdown is critical, considering how much simpler result is and that split_huge_page() is quite rare nowadays. It only happens due memory pressure or migration.

2016-03-15mm: memcontrol: generalize locking for the page->mem_cgroup bindingJohannes Weiner
These patches tag the page cache radix tree eviction entries with the memcg an evicted page belonged to, thus making per-cgroup LRU reclaim work properly and be as adaptive to new cache workingsets as global reclaim already is. This should have been part of the original thrash detection patch series, but was deferred due to the complexity of those patches. This patch (of 5): So far the only sites that needed to exclude charge migration to stabilize page->mem_cgroup have been per-cgroup page statistics, hence the name mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat(). But per-cgroup thrash detection will add another site that needs to ensure page->mem_cgroup lifetime. Rename these locking functions to the more generic lock_page_memcg() and unlock_page_memcg(). Since charge migration is a cgroup1 feature only, we might be able to delete it at some point, and these now easy to identify locking sites along with it.

It doesn't take care about ordering or hugetlbfs_i_mmap_rwsem_key (aka mapping->i_mmap_rwsem for hugetlb mapping) vs. i_mmap_rwsem. huge_pmd_share() does memory allocation under hugetlbfs_i_mmap_rwsem_key and allocator can take i_mmap_rwsem if it hit reclaim. So we need to take i_mmap_rwsem from all hugetlb VMAs before taking i_mmap_rwsem from rest of VMAs. The patch also documents locking order for hugetlbfs_i_mmap_rwsem_key.

2016-01-15mm: support madvise(MADV_FREE)Minchan Kim
Linux doesn't have an ability to free pages lazy while other OS already have been supported that named by madvise(MADV_FREE). The gain is clear that kernel can discard freed pages rather than swapping out or OOM if memory pressure happens. Without memory pressure, freed pages would be reused by userspace without another additional overhead(ex, page fault + allocation + zeroing). Jason Evans said: : Facebook has been using MAP_UNINITIALIZED : (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/18/308) in some of its applications for : several years, but there are operational costs to maintaining this : out-of-tree in our kernel and in jemalloc, and we are anxious to retire it : in favor of MADV_FREE. When we first enabled MAP_UNINITIALIZED it : increased throughput for much of our workload by ~5%, and although the : benefit has decreased using newer hardware and kernels, there is still : enough benefit that we cannot reasonably retire it without a replacement. : : Aside from Facebook operations, there are numerous broadly used : applications that would benefit from MADV_FREE. The ones that immediately : come to mind are redis, varnish, and MariaDB. I don't have much insight : into Android internals and development process, but I would hope to see : MADV_FREE support eventually end up there as well to benefit applications : linked with the integrated jemalloc. : : jemalloc will use MADV_FREE once it becomes available in the Linux kernel. : In fact, jemalloc already uses MADV_FREE or equivalent everywhere it's : available: *BSD, OS X, Windows, and Solaris -- every platform except Linux : (and AIX, but I'm not sure it even compiles on AIX). The lack of : MADV_FREE on Linux forced me down a long series of increasingly : sophisticated heuristics for madvise() volume reduction, and even so this : remains a common performance issue for people using jemalloc on Linux. : Please integrate MADV_FREE; many people will benefit substantially. How it works: When madvise syscall is called, VM clears dirty bit of ptes of the range. If memory pressure happens, VM checks dirty bit of page table and if it found still "clean", it means it's a "lazyfree pages" so VM could discard the page instead of swapping out. Once there was store operation for the page before VM peek a page to reclaim, dirty bit is set so VM can swap out the page instead of discarding. One thing we should notice is that basically, MADV_FREE relies on dirty bit in page table entry to decide whether VM allows to discard the page or not. IOW, if page table entry includes marked dirty bit, VM shouldn't discard the page. However, as a example, if swap-in by read fault happens, page table entry doesn't have dirty bit so MADV_FREE could discard the page wrongly. For avoiding the problem, MADV_FREE did more checks with PageDirty and PageSwapCache. It worked out because swapped-in page lives on swap cache and since it is evicted from the swap cache, the page has PG_dirty flag. So both page flags check effectively prevent wrong discarding by MADV_FREE. However, a problem in above logic is that swapped-in page has PG_dirty still after they are removed from swap cache so VM cannot consider the page as freeable any more even if madvise_free is called in future. Look at below example for detail. ptr = malloc(); memset(ptr); .. .. .. heavy memory pressure so all of pages are swapped out .. .. var = *ptr; -> a page swapped-in and could be removed from swapcache. Then, page table doesn't mark dirty bit and page descriptor includes PG_dirty .. .. madvise_free(ptr); -> It doesn't clear PG_dirty of the page. .. .. .. .. heavy memory pressure again. .. In this time, VM cannot discard the page because the page .. has *PG_dirty* To solve the problem, this patch clears PG_dirty if only the page is owned exclusively by current process when madvise is called because PG_dirty represents ptes's dirtiness in several processes so we could clear it only if we own it exclusively.

2016-01-15thp: allow mlocked THP againKirill A. Shutemov
Before THP refcounting rework, THP was not allowed to cross VMA boundary. So, if we have THP and we split it, PG_mlocked can be safely transferred to small pages. With new THP refcounting and naive approach to mlocking we can end up with this scenario: 1. we have a mlocked THP, which belong to one VM_LOCKED VMA. 2. the process does munlock() on the *part* of the THP: - the VMA is split into two, one of them VM_LOCKED; - huge PMD split into PTE table; - THP is still mlocked; 3. split_huge_page(): - it transfers PG_mlocked to *all* small pages regrardless if it blong to any VM_LOCKED VMA. We probably could munlock() all small pages on split_huge_page(), but I think we have accounting issue already on step two. Instead of forbidding mlocked pages altogether, we just avoid mlocking PTE-mapped THPs and munlock THPs on split_huge_pmd(). This means PTE-mapped THPs will be on normal lru lists and will be split under memory pressure by vmscan. After the split vmscan will detect unevictable small pages and mlock them. With this approach we shouldn't hit situation like described above. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2016-01-15thp: introduce deferred_split_huge_page()Kirill A. Shutemov
Currently we don't split huge page on partial unmap. It's not an ideal situation. It can lead to memory overhead. Furtunately, we can detect partial unmap on page_remove_rmap(). But we cannot call split_huge_page() from there due to locking context. It's also counterproductive to do directly from munmap() codepath: in many cases we will hit this from exit(2) and splitting the huge page just to free it up in small pages is not what we really want. The patch introduce deferred_split_huge_page() which put the huge page into queue for splitting. The splitting itself will happen when we get memory pressure via shrinker interface. The page will be dropped from list on freeing through compound page destructor. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2016-01-15thp: reintroduce split_huge_page()Kirill A. Shutemov
This patch adds implementation of split_huge_page() for new refcountings. Unlike previous implementation, new split_huge_page() can fail if somebody holds GUP pin on the page. It also means that pin on page would prevent it from bening split under you. It makes situation in many places much cleaner. The basic scheme of split_huge_page(): - Check that sum of mapcounts of all subpage is equal to page_count() plus one (caller pin). Foll off with -EBUSY. This way we can avoid useless PMD-splits. - Freeze the page counters by splitting all PMD and setup migration PTEs. - Re-check sum of mapcounts against page_count(). Page's counts are stable now. -EBUSY if page is pinned. - Split compound page. - Unfreeze the page by removing migration entries. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2016-01-15mm: rework mapcount accounting to enable 4k mapping of THPsKirill A. Shutemov
We're going to allow mapping of individual 4k pages of THP compound. It means we need to track mapcount on per small page basis. Straight-forward approach is to use ->_mapcount in all subpages to track how many time this subpage is mapped with PMDs or PTEs combined. But this is rather expensive: mapping or unmapping of a THP page with PMD would require HPAGE_PMD_NR atomic operations instead of single we have now. The idea is to store separately how many times the page was mapped as whole -- compound_mapcount. This frees up ->_mapcount in subpages to track PTE mapcount. We use the same approach as with compound page destructor and compound order to store compound_mapcount: use space in first tail page, ->mapping this time. Any time we map/unmap whole compound page (THP or hugetlb) -- we increment/decrement compound_mapcount. When we map part of compound page with PTE we operate on ->_mapcount of the subpage. page_mapcount() counts both: PTE and PMD mappings of the page. Basically, we have mapcount for a subpage spread over two counters. It makes tricky to detect when last mapcount for a page goes away. We introduced PageDoubleMap() for this. When we split THP PMD for the first time and there's other PMD mapping left we offset up ->_mapcount in all subpages by one and set PG_double_map on the compound page. These additional references go away with last compound_mapcount. This approach provides a way to detect when last mapcount goes away on per small page basis without introducing new overhead for most common cases.

2016-01-14mm, shmem: add internal shmem resident memory accountingJerome Marchand
Currently looking at /proc/<pid>/status or statm, there is no way to distinguish shmem pages from pages mapped to a regular file (shmem pages are mapped to /dev/zero), even though their implication in actual memory use is quite different. The internal accounting currently counts shmem pages together with regular files. As a preparation to extend the userspace interfaces, this patch adds MM_SHMEMPAGES counter to mm_rss_stat to account for shmem pages separately from MM_FILEPAGES. The next patch will expose it to userspace - this patch doesn't change the exported values yet, by adding up MM_SHMEMPAGES to MM_FILEPAGES at places where MM_FILEPAGES was used before. The only user-visible change after this patch is the OOM killer message that separates the reported "shmem-rss" from "file-rss".

2016-01-14kmemcg: account certain kmem allocations to memcgVladimir Davydov
Mark those kmem allocations that are known to be easily triggered from userspace as __GFP_ACCOUNT/SLAB_ACCOUNT, which makes them accounted to memcg. For the list, see below: - threadinfo - task_struct - task_delay_info - pid - cred - mm_struct - vm_area_struct and vm_region (nommu) - anon_vma and anon_vma_chain - signal_struct - sighand_struct - fs_struct - files_struct - fdtable and fdtable->full_fds_bits - dentry and external_name - inode for all filesystems. This is the most tedious part, because most filesystems overwrite the alloc_inode method. The list is far from complete, so feel free to add more objects. Nevertheless, it should be close to "account everything" approach and keep most workloads within bounds. Malevolent users will be able to breach the limit, but this was possible even with the former "account everything" approach (simply because it did not account everything in fact).
