This patch set 1. Introduces the XArray implementation 2. Converts the pagecache to use it 3. Converts memremap to use it The page cache is the most complex and important user of the radix tree, so converting it was most important. Converting the memremap code removes the only other user of the multiorder code, which allows us to remove the radix tree code that supported it. I have 40+ followup patches to convert many other users of the radix tree over to the XArray, but I'd like to get this part in first.

Also, sets DEF_FIELD_ADDR as a specific usage of DEF_FILD_ADDR_VAR in which the var name is the same as the struct element name. Then, makes use of DEF_FIELD_ADDR_VAR to create a variable of another name, in order to avoid variable shadowing.

69d5b97 Linus Torvalds 27 October 2018, 18:03:27 UTC HID: we do not randomly make new drivers 'default y' .. even when that "default y" is hidden syntactically as a default !EXPERT it's wrong. The only reason something should be 'default y' is if it used to be built-in, and it was made configurable, and the 'default y' is just retaining the status quo. Altheratively, the hardware for the driver has become _so_ common that it really makes sense for everybody to build it. Finally, one possible reason for 'default y' is because the option is not enabling any new code at all, but is just enabling other options (the networking people do this for vendor options, for example, so that you can disable whole vendors at a time). Clearly, none of these cases hold for the BigBen Interactive Kids' gamepad, and HID_BIGBEN_FF should thus most definitely not default to on for everybody.

b59dfda Linus Torvalds 27 October 2018, 16:10:48 UTC i2c-hid: properly terminate i2c_hid_dmi_desc_override_table[] array Commit 9ee3e06610fd ("HID: i2c-hid: override HID descriptors for certain devices") added a new dmi_system_id quirk table to override certain HID report descriptors for some systems that lack them. But the table wasn't properly terminated, causing the dmi matching to walk off into la-la-land, and starting to treat random data as dmi descriptor pointers, causing boot-time oopses if you were at all unlucky. Terminate the array. We really should have some way to just statically check that arrays that should be terminated by an empty entry actually are so. But the HID people really should have caught this themselves, rather than have me deal with an oops during the merge window. Tssk, tssk.

22146c3 Mike Kravetz 26 October 2018, 22:10:58 UTC hugetlbfs: dirty pages as they are added to pagecache Some test systems were experiencing negative huge page reserve counts and incorrect file block counts. This was traced to /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches removing clean pages from hugetlbfs file pagecaches. When non-hugetlbfs explicit code removes the pages, the appropriate accounting is not performed. This can be recreated as follows: fallocate -l 2M /dev/hugepages/foo echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches fallocate -l 2M /dev/hugepages/foo grep -i huge /proc/meminfo AnonHugePages: 0 kB ShmemHugePages: 0 kB HugePages_Total: 2048 HugePages_Free: 2047 HugePages_Rsvd: 18446744073709551615 HugePages_Surp: 0 Hugepagesize: 2048 kB Hugetlb: 4194304 kB ls -lsh /dev/hugepages/foo 4.0M -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 2.0M Oct 17 20:05 /dev/hugepages/foo To address this issue, dirty pages as they are added to pagecache. This can easily be reproduced with fallocate as shown above. Read faulted pages will eventually end up being marked dirty. But there is a window where they are clean and could be impacted by code such as drop_caches. So, just dirty them all as they are added to the pagecache.

aa8aa8a Omar Sandoval 26 October 2018, 22:10:55 UTC mm: export add_swap_extent() Btrfs currently does not support swap files because swap's use of bmap does not work with copy-on-write and multiple devices. See 35054394c4b3 ("Btrfs: stop providing a bmap operation to avoid swapfile corruptions"). However, the swap code has a mechanism for the filesystem to manually add swap extents using add_swap_extent() from the ->swap_activate() aop. iomap has done this since 67482129cdab ("iomap: add a swapfile activation function"). Btrfs will do the same in a later patch, so export add_swap_extent().

bc4ae27 Omar Sandoval 26 October 2018, 22:10:51 UTC mm: split SWP_FILE into SWP_ACTIVATED and SWP_FS The SWP_FILE flag serves two purposes: to make swap_{read,write}page() go through the filesystem, and to make swapoff() call ->swap_deactivate(). For Btrfs, we want the latter but not the former, so split this flag into two. This makes us always call ->swap_deactivate() if ->swap_activate() succeeded, not just if it didn't add any swap extents itself. This also resolves the issue of the very misleading name of SWP_FILE, which is only used for swap files over NFS.

7066f0f Andrea Arcangeli 26 October 2018, 22:10:40 UTC mm: thp: fix mmu_notifier in migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() change_huge_pmd() after arming the numa/protnone pmd doesn't flush the TLB right away. do_huge_pmd_numa_page() flushes the TLB before calling migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page(). By the time do_huge_pmd_numa_page() runs some CPU could still access the page through the TLB. change_huge_pmd() before arming the numa/protnone transhuge pmd calls mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start(). So there's no need of mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()/mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_only_end() sequence in migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() too, because by the time migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() runs, the pmd mapping has already been invalidated in the secondary MMUs. It has to or if a secondary MMU can still write to the page, the migrate_page_copy() would lose data. However an explicit mmu_notifier_invalidate_range() is needed before migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() starts copying the data of the transhuge page or the below can happen for MMU notifier users sharing the primary MMU pagetables and only implementing ->invalidate_range: CPU0 CPU1 GPU sharing linux pagetables using only ->invalidate_range ----------- ------------ --------- GPU secondary MMU writes to the page mapped by the transhuge pmd change_pmd_range() mmu..._range_start() ->invalidate_range_start() noop change_huge_pmd() set_pmd_at(numa/protnone) pmd_unlock() do_huge_pmd_numa_page() CPU TLB flush globally (1) CPU cannot write to page migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() GPU writes to the page... migrate_page_copy() ...GPU stops writing to the page CPU TLB flush (2) mmu..._range_end() (3) ->invalidate_range_stop() noop ->invalidate_range() GPU secondary MMU is invalidated and cannot write to the page anymore (too late) Just like we need a CPU TLB flush (1) because the TLB flush (2) arrives too late, we also need a mmu_notifier_invalidate_range() before calling migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page(), because the ->invalidate_range() in (3) also arrives too late. This requirement is the result of the lazy optimization in change_huge_pmd() that releases the pmd_lock without first flushing the TLB and without first calling mmu_notifier_invalidate_range(). Even converting the removed mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_only_end() into a mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end() would not have been enough to fix this, because it run after migrate_page_copy(). After the hugepage data copy is done migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() can proceed and call set_pmd_at without having to flush the TLB nor any secondary MMUs because the secondary MMU invalidate, just like the CPU TLB flush, has to happen before the migrate_page_copy() is called or it would be a bug in the first place (and it was for drivers using ->invalidate_range()). KVM is unaffected because it doesn't implement ->invalidate_range(). The standard PAGE_SIZEd migrate_misplaced_page is less accelerated and uses the generic migrate_pages which transitions the pte from numa/protnone to a migration entry in try_to_unmap_one() and flushes TLBs and all mmu notifiers there before copying the page.

d7c3393 Andrea Arcangeli 26 October 2018, 22:10:36 UTC mm: thp: fix MADV_DONTNEED vs migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page race condition Patch series "migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page race conditions". Aaron found a new instance of the THP MADV_DONTNEED race against pmdp_clear_flush* variants, that was apparently left unfixed. While looking into the race found by Aaron, I may have found two more issues in migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page. These race conditions would not cause kernel instability, but they'd corrupt userland data or leave data non zero after MADV_DONTNEED. I did only minor testing, and I don't expect to be able to reproduce this (especially the lack of ->invalidate_range before migrate_page_copy, requires the latest iommu hardware or infiniband to reproduce). The last patch is noop for x86 and it needs further review from maintainers of archs that implement flush_cache_range() (not in CC yet). To avoid confusion, it's not the first patch that introduces the bug fixed in the second patch, even before removing the pmdp_huge_clear_flush_notify, that _notify suffix was called after migrate_page_copy already run. This patch (of 3): This is a corollary of ced108037c2aa ("thp: fix MADV_DONTNEED vs. numa balancing race"), 58ceeb6bec8 ("thp: fix MADV_DONTNEED vs. MADV_FREE race") and 5b7abeae3af8c ("thp: fix MADV_DONTNEED vs clear soft dirty race). When the above three fixes where posted Dave asked https://lkml.kernel.org/r/929b3844-aec2-0111-fef7-8002f9d4e2b9@intel.com but apparently this was missed. The pmdp_clear_flush* in migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() was introduced in a54a407fbf7 ("mm: Close races between THP migration and PMD numa clearing"). The important part of such commit is only the part where the page lock is not released until the first do_huge_pmd_numa_page() finished disarming the pagenuma/protnone. The addition of pmdp_clear_flush() wasn't beneficial to such commit and there's no commentary about such an addition either. I guess the pmdp_clear_flush() in such commit was added just in case for safety, but it ended up introducing the MADV_DONTNEED race condition found by Aaron. At that point in time nobody thought of such kind of MADV_DONTNEED race conditions yet (they were fixed later) so the code may have looked more robust by adding the pmdp_clear_flush(). This specific race condition won't destabilize the kernel, but it can confuse userland because after MADV_DONTNEED the memory won't be zeroed out. This also optimizes the code and removes a superfluous TLB flush.

026d1ea Clark Williams 26 October 2018, 22:10:32 UTC mm/kasan/quarantine.c: make quarantine_lock a raw_spinlock_t The static lock quarantine_lock is used in quarantine.c to protect the quarantine queue datastructures. It is taken inside quarantine queue manipulation routines (quarantine_put(), quarantine_reduce() and quarantine_remove_cache()), with IRQs disabled. This is not a problem on a stock kernel but is problematic on an RT kernel where spin locks are sleeping spinlocks, which can sleep and can not be acquired with disabled interrupts. Convert the quarantine_lock to a raw spinlock_t. The usage of quarantine_lock is confined to quarantine.c and the work performed while the lock is held is used for debug purpose.

df06b37 Keith Busch 26 October 2018, 22:10:28 UTC mm/gup: cache dev_pagemap while pinning pages Getting pages from ZONE_DEVICE memory needs to check the backing device's live-ness, which is tracked in the device's dev_pagemap metadata. This metadata is stored in a radix tree and looking it up adds measurable software overhead. This patch avoids repeating this relatively costly operation when dev_pagemap is used by caching the last dev_pagemap while getting user pages. The gup_benchmark kernel self test reports this reduces time to get user pages to as low as 1/3 of the previous time.

Memblock layout affects the pfn ranges covered by node/zone. Consider that we have a VM with 2 NUMA nodes and each node has 4GB memory, and the default (no memmap= given) memblock layout is like below: MEMBLOCK configuration: memory size = 0x00000001fff75c00 reserved size = 0x000000000300c000 memory.cnt = 0x4 memory[0x0] [0x0000000000001000-0x000000000009efff], 0x000000000009e000 bytes on node 0 flags: 0x0 memory[0x1] [0x0000000000100000-0x00000000bffd6fff], 0x00000000bfed7000 bytes on node 0 flags: 0x0 memory[0x2] [0x0000000100000000-0x000000013fffffff], 0x0000000040000000 bytes on node 0 flags: 0x0 memory[0x3] [0x0000000140000000-0x000000023fffffff], 0x0000000100000000 bytes on node 1 flags: 0x0 ... If you give memmap=1G!4G (so it just covers memory[0x2]), the range [0x100000000-0x13fffffff] is gone: MEMBLOCK configuration: memory size = 0x00000001bff75c00 reserved size = 0x000000000300c000 memory.cnt = 0x3 memory[0x0] [0x0000000000001000-0x000000000009efff], 0x000000000009e000 bytes on node 0 flags: 0x0 memory[0x1] [0x0000000000100000-0x00000000bffd6fff], 0x00000000bfed7000 bytes on node 0 flags: 0x0 memory[0x2] [0x0000000140000000-0x000000023fffffff], 0x0000000100000000 bytes on node 1 flags: 0x0 ... This causes shrinking node 0's pfn range because it is calculated by the address range of memblock.memory. So some of struct pages in the gap range are left uninitialized. We have a function zero_resv_unavail() which does zeroing the struct pages outside memblock.memory, but currently it covers only the reserved unavailable range (i.e. memblock.memory && !memblock.reserved). This patch extends it to cover all unavailable range, which fixes the reported issue.

7a1adfd Roman Gushchin 26 October 2018, 22:09:48 UTC mm: don't raise MEMCG_OOM event due to failed high-order allocation It was reported that on some of our machines containers were restarted with OOM symptoms without an obvious reason. Despite there were almost no memory pressure and plenty of page cache, MEMCG_OOM event was raised occasionally, causing the container management software to think, that OOM has happened. However, no tasks have been killed. The following investigation showed that the problem is caused by a failing attempt to charge a high-order page. In such case, the OOM killer is never invoked. As shown below, it can happen under conditions, which are very far from a real OOM: e.g. there is plenty of clean page cache and no memory pressure. There is no sense in raising an OOM event in this case, as it might confuse a user and lead to wrong and excessive actions (e.g. restart the workload, as in my case). Let's look at the charging path in try_charge(). If the memory usage is about memory.max, which is absolutely natural for most memory cgroups, we try to reclaim some pages. Even if we were able to reclaim enough memory for the allocation, the following check can fail due to a race with another concurrent allocation: if (mem_cgroup_margin(mem_over_limit) >= nr_pages) goto retry; For regular pages the following condition will save us from triggering the OOM: if (nr_reclaimed && nr_pages <= (1 << PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER)) goto retry; But for high-order allocation this condition will intentionally fail. The reason behind is that we'll likely fall to regular pages anyway, so it's ok and even preferred to return ENOMEM. In this case the idea of raising MEMCG_OOM looks dubious. Fix this by moving MEMCG_OOM raising to mem_cgroup_oom() after allocation order check, so that the event won't be raised for high order allocations. This change doesn't affect regular pages allocation and charging.

6408136 Dave Chinner 26 October 2018, 22:09:45 UTC mm/page-writeback.c: fix range_cyclic writeback vs writepages deadlock We've recently seen a workload on XFS filesystems with a repeatable deadlock between background writeback and a multi-process application doing concurrent writes and fsyncs to a small range of a file. range_cyclic writeback Process 1 Process 2 xfs_vm_writepages write_cache_pages writeback_index = 2 cycled = 0 .... find page 2 dirty lock Page 2 ->writepage page 2 writeback page 2 clean page 2 added to bio no more pages write() locks page 1 dirties page 1 locks page 2 dirties page 1 fsync() .... xfs_vm_writepages write_cache_pages start index 0 find page 1 towrite lock Page 1 ->writepage page 1 writeback page 1 clean page 1 added to bio find page 2 towrite lock Page 2 page 2 is writeback <blocks> write() locks page 1 dirties page 1 fsync() .... xfs_vm_writepages write_cache_pages start index 0 !done && !cycled sets index to 0, restarts lookup find page 1 dirty find page 1 towrite lock Page 1 page 1 is writeback <blocks> lock Page 1 <blocks> DEADLOCK because: - process 1 needs page 2 writeback to complete to make enough progress to issue IO pending for page 1 - writeback needs page 1 writeback to complete so process 2 can progress and unlock the page it is blocked on, then it can issue the IO pending for page 2 - process 2 can't make progress until process 1 issues IO for page 1 The underlying cause of the problem here is that range_cyclic writeback is processing pages in descending index order as we hold higher index pages in a structure controlled from above write_cache_pages(). The write_cache_pages() caller needs to be able to submit these pages for IO before write_cache_pages restarts writeback at mapping index 0 to avoid wcp inverting the page lock/writeback wait order. generic_writepages() is not susceptible to this bug as it has no private context held across write_cache_pages() - filesystems using this infrastructure always submit pages in ->writepage immediately and so there is no problem with range_cyclic going back to mapping index 0. However: mpage_writepages() has a private bio context, exofs_writepages() has page_collect fuse_writepages() has fuse_fill_wb_data nfs_writepages() has nfs_pageio_descriptor xfs_vm_writepages() has xfs_writepage_ctx All of these ->writepages implementations can hold pages under writeback in their private structures until write_cache_pages() returns, and hence they are all susceptible to this deadlock. Also worth noting is that ext4 has it's own bastardised version of write_cache_pages() and so it /may/ have an equivalent deadlock. I looked at the code long enough to understand that it has a similar retry loop for range_cyclic writeback reaching the end of the file and then promptly ran away before my eyes bled too much. I'll leave it for the ext4 developers to determine if their code is actually has this deadlock and how to fix it if it has. There's a few ways I can see avoid this deadlock. There's probably more, but these are the first I've though of: 1. get rid of range_cyclic altogether 2. range_cyclic always stops at EOF, and we start again from writeback index 0 on the next call into write_cache_pages() 2a. wcp also returns EAGAIN to ->writepages implementations to indicate range cyclic has hit EOF. writepages implementations can then flush the current context and call wpc again to continue. i.e. lift the retry into the ->writepages implementation 3. range_cyclic uses trylock_page() rather than lock_page(), and it skips pages it can't lock without blocking. It will already do this for pages under writeback, so this seems like a no-brainer 3a. all non-WB_SYNC_ALL writeback uses trylock_page() to avoid blocking as per pages under writeback. I don't think #1 is an option - range_cyclic prevents frequently dirtied lower file offset from starving background writeback of rarely touched higher file offsets. #2 is simple, and I don't think it will have any impact on performance as going back to the start of the file implies an immediate seek. We'll have exactly the same number of seeks if we switch writeback to another inode, and then come back to this one later and restart from index 0. #2a is pretty much "status quo without the deadlock". Moving the retry loop up into the wcp caller means we can issue IO on the pending pages before calling wcp again, and so avoid locking or waiting on pages in the wrong order. I'm not convinced we need to do this given that we get the same thing from #2 on the next writeback call from the writeback infrastructure. #3 is really just a band-aid - it doesn't fix the access/wait inversion problem, just prevents it from becoming a deadlock situation. I'd prefer we fix the inversion, not sweep it under the carpet like this. #3a is really an optimisation that just so happens to include the band-aid fix of #3. So it seems that the simplest way to fix this issue is to implement solution #2 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181005054526.21507-1-david@fromorbit.com Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.de> Cc: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 26 October 2018, 23:38:14 UTC

d3035be Pavel Tatashin 26 October 2018, 22:09:37 UTC mm: calculate deferred pages after skipping mirrored memory update_defer_init() should be called only when struct page is about to be initialized. Because it counts number of initialized struct pages, but there we may skip struct pages if there is some mirrored memory. So move, update_defer_init() after checking for mirrored memory. Also, rename update_defer_init() to defer_init() and reverse the return boolean to emphasize that this is a boolean function, that tells that the reset of memmap initialization should be deferred. Make this function self-contained: do not pass number of already initialized pages in this zone by using static counters. I found this bug by reading the code. The effect is that fewer than expected struct pages are initialized early in boot, and it is possible that in some corner cases we may fail to boot when mirrored pages are used. The deferred on demand code should somewhat mitigate this. But this still brings some inconsistencies compared to when booting without mirrored pages, so it is better to fix.

MREMAP_FIXED and MREMAP_MAYMOVE are more complicated to adopt this optimization since they need manipulate vmas after do_munmap(), downgrading mmap_sem may create race window. Simple mapping shrink is the low hanging fruit, and it may cover the most cases of unmap with munmap together.

d018498 Alexandre Ghiti 26 October 2018, 22:07:59 UTC hugetlb: harmonize hugetlb.h arch specific defines with pgtable.h In order to reduce copy/paste of functions across architectures and then make riscv hugetlb port (and future ports) simpler and smaller, this patchset intends to factorize the numerous hugetlb primitives that are defined across all the architectures. Except for prepare_hugepage_range, this patchset moves the versions that are just pass-through to standard pte primitives into asm-generic/hugetlb.h by using the same #ifdef semantic that can be found in asm-generic/pgtable.h, i.e. __HAVE_ARCH_***. s390 architecture has not been tackled in this serie since it does not use asm-generic/hugetlb.h at all. This patchset has been compiled on all addressed architectures with success (except for parisc, but the problem does not come from this series). This patch (of 11): asm-generic/hugetlb.h proposes generic implementations of hugetlb related functions: use __HAVE_ARCH_HUGE* defines in order to make arch specific implementations of hugetlb functions consistent with pgtable.h scheme.

966cf44 Alexander Duyck 26 October 2018, 22:07:52 UTC mm: defer ZONE_DEVICE page initialization to the point where we init pgmap The ZONE_DEVICE pages were being initialized in two locations. One was with the memory_hotplug lock held and another was outside of that lock. The problem with this is that it was nearly doubling the memory initialization time. Instead of doing this twice, once while holding a global lock and once without, I am opting to defer the initialization to the one outside of the lock. This allows us to avoid serializing the overhead for memory init and we can instead focus on per-node init times. One issue I encountered is that devm_memremap_pages and hmm_devmmem_pages_create were initializing only the pgmap field the same way. One wasn't initializing hmm_data, and the other was initializing it to a poison value. Since this is something that is exposed to the driver in the case of hmm I am opting for a third option and just initializing hmm_data to 0 since this is going to be exposed to unknown third party drivers.

d483da5 Alexander Duyck 26 October 2018, 22:07:48 UTC mm: create non-atomic version of SetPageReserved for init use It doesn't make much sense to use the atomic SetPageReserved at init time when we are using memset to clear the memory and manipulating the page flags via simple "&=" and "|=" operations in __init_single_page. This patch adds a non-atomic version __SetPageReserved that can be used during page init and shows about a 10% improvement in initialization times on the systems I have available for testing. On those systems I saw initialization times drop from around 35 seconds to around 32 seconds to initialize a 3TB block of persistent memory. I believe the main advantage of this is that it allows for more compiler optimization as the __set_bit operation can be reordered whereas the atomic version cannot. I tried adding a bit of documentation based on f1dd2cd13c4 ("mm, memory_hotplug: do not associate hotadded memory to zones until online"). Ideally the reserved flag should be set earlier since there is a brief window where the page is initialization via __init_single_page and we have not set the PG_Reserved flag. I'm leaving that for a future patch set as that will require a more significant refactor.

f682a97 Alexander Duyck 26 October 2018, 22:07:45 UTC mm: provide kernel parameter to allow disabling page init poisoning Patch series "Address issues slowing persistent memory initialization", v5. The main thing this patch set achieves is that it allows us to initialize each node worth of persistent memory independently. As a result we reduce page init time by about 2 minutes because instead of taking 30 to 40 seconds per node and going through each node one at a time, we process all 4 nodes in parallel in the case of a 12TB persistent memory setup spread evenly over 4 nodes. This patch (of 3): On systems with a large amount of memory it can take a significant amount of time to initialize all of the page structs with the PAGE_POISON_PATTERN value. I have seen it take over 2 minutes to initialize a system with over 12TB of RAM. In order to work around the issue I had to disable CONFIG_DEBUG_VM and then the boot time returned to something much more reasonable as the arch_add_memory call completed in milliseconds versus seconds. However in doing that I had to disable all of the other VM debugging on the system. In order to work around a kernel that might have CONFIG_DEBUG_VM enabled on a system that has a large amount of memory I have added a new kernel parameter named "vm_debug" that can be set to "-" in order to disable it.

For example: ___ zone_last = ZONE_MOVABLE; /* * check whether node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] will be changed * If we try to offline the last present @nr_pages from the node, * we can determind we will need to clear the node from * node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY]. */ for (; zt <= zone_last; zt++) present_pages += pgdat->node_zones[zt].present_pages; if (nr_pages >= present_pages) arg->status_change_nid = zone_to_nid(zone); else arg->status_change_nid = -1; ___ In case the node gets empry, it must be removed from N_MEMORY. We already check N_HIGH_MEMORY a bit above within the CONFIG_HIGHMEM ifdef code. Not to say that status_change_nid is for N_MEMORY, and not for N_HIGH_MEMORY. So I re-wrote some of the comments to what I think is better.

dd2283f Yang Shi 26 October 2018, 22:07:11 UTC mm: mmap: zap pages with read mmap_sem in munmap Patch series "mm: zap pages with read mmap_sem in munmap for large mapping", v11. Background: Recently, when we ran some vm scalability tests on machines with large memory, we ran into a couple of mmap_sem scalability issues when unmapping large memory space, please refer to https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/12/14/733 and https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/2/20/576. History: Then akpm suggested to unmap large mapping section by section and drop mmap_sem at a time to mitigate it (see https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/3/6/784). V1 patch series was submitted to the mailing list per Andrew's suggestion (see https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/3/20/786). Then I received a lot great feedback and suggestions. Then this topic was discussed on LSFMM summit 2018. In the summit, Michal Hocko suggested (also in the v1 patches review) to try "two phases" approach. Zapping pages with read mmap_sem, then doing via cleanup with write mmap_sem (for discussion detail, see https://lwn.net/Articles/753269/) Approach: Zapping pages is the most time consuming part, according to the suggestion from Michal Hocko [1], zapping pages can be done with holding read mmap_sem, like what MADV_DONTNEED does. Then re-acquire write mmap_sem to cleanup vmas. But, we can't call MADV_DONTNEED directly, since there are two major drawbacks: * The unexpected state from PF if it wins the race in the middle of munmap. It may return zero page, instead of the content or SIGSEGV. * Can't handle VM_LOCKED | VM_HUGETLB | VM_PFNMAP and uprobe mappings, which is a showstopper from akpm But, some part may need write mmap_sem, for example, vma splitting. So, the design is as follows: acquire write mmap_sem lookup vmas (find and split vmas) deal with special mappings detach vmas downgrade_write zap pages free page tables release mmap_sem The vm events with read mmap_sem may come in during page zapping, but since vmas have been detached before, they, i.e. page fault, gup, etc, will not be able to find valid vma, then just return SIGSEGV or -EFAULT as expected. If the vma has VM_HUGETLB | VM_PFNMAP, they are considered as special mappings. They will be handled by falling back to regular do_munmap() with exclusive mmap_sem held in this patch since they may update vm flags. But, with the "detach vmas first" approach, the vmas have been detached when vm flags are updated, so it sounds safe to update vm flags with read mmap_sem for this specific case. So, VM_HUGETLB and VM_PFNMAP will be handled by using the optimized path in the following separate patches for bisectable sake. Unmapping uprobe areas may need update mm flags (MMF_RECALC_UPROBES). However it is fine to have false-positive MMF_RECALC_UPROBES according to uprobes developer. So, uprobe unmap will not be handled by the regular path. With the "detach vmas first" approach we don't have to re-acquire mmap_sem again to clean up vmas to avoid race window which might get the address space changed since downgrade_write() doesn't release the lock to lead regression, which simply downgrades to read lock. And, since the lock acquire/release cost is managed to the minimum and almost as same as before, the optimization could be extended to any size of mapping without incurring significant penalty to small mappings. For the time being, just do this in munmap syscall path. Other vm_munmap() or do_munmap() call sites (i.e mmap, mremap, etc) remain intact due to some implementation difficulties since they acquire write mmap_sem from very beginning and hold it until the end, do_munmap() might be called in the middle. But, the optimized do_munmap would like to be called without mmap_sem held so that we can do the optimization. So, if we want to do the similar optimization for mmap/mremap path, I'm afraid we would have to redesign them. mremap might be called on very large area depending on the usecases, the optimization to it will be considered in the future. This patch (of 3): When running some mmap/munmap scalability tests with large memory (i.e. > 300GB), the below hung task issue may happen occasionally.

When unmapping large mapping, it may take long time (take ~18 seconds to unmap 320GB mapping with every single page mapped on an idle machine).

Things have changed since then though. Namely c78e93630d15 ("mm: do not walk all of system memory during show_mem") has reduced the overhead considerably. Moreover warn_alloc_show_mem clears SHOW_MEM_FILTER_NODES when called from the IRQ context already so we are not printing per node stats. Remove should_suppress_show_mem because we are losing potentially interesting information about allocation failures.

4b85afb Johannes Weiner 26 October 2018, 22:06:42 UTC mm: zero-seek shrinkers The page cache and most shrinkable slab caches hold data that has been read from disk, but there are some caches that only cache CPU work, such as the dentry and inode caches of procfs and sysfs, as well as the subset of radix tree nodes that track non-resident page cache. Currently, all these are shrunk at the same rate: using DEFAULT_SEEKS for the shrinker's seeks setting tells the reclaim algorithm that for every two page cache pages scanned it should scan one slab object. This is a bogus setting. A virtual inode that required no IO to create is not twice as valuable as a page cache page; shadow cache entries with eviction distances beyond the size of memory aren't either. In most cases, the behavior in practice is still fine. Such virtual caches don't tend to grow and assert themselves aggressively, and usually get picked up before they cause problems. But there are scenarios where that's not true. Our database workloads suffer from two of those. For one, their file workingset is several times bigger than available memory, which has the kernel aggressively create shadow page cache entries for the non-resident parts of it. The workingset code does tell the VM that most of these are expendable, but the VM ends up balancing them 2:1 to cache pages as per the seeks setting. This is a huge waste of memory. These workloads also deal with tens of thousands of open files and use /proc for introspection, which ends up growing the proc_inode_cache to absurdly large sizes - again at the cost of valuable cache space, which isn't a reasonable trade-off, given that proc inodes can be re-created without involving the disk. This patch implements a "zero-seek" setting for shrinkers that results in a target ratio of 0:1 between their objects and IO-backed caches. This allows such virtual caches to grow when memory is available (they do cache/avoid CPU work after all), but effectively disables them as soon as IO-backed objects are under pressure. It then switches the shrinkers for procfs and sysfs metadata, as well as excess page cache shadow nodes, to the new zero-seek setting.

eb41468 Johannes Weiner 26 October 2018, 22:06:27 UTC psi: pressure stall information for CPU, memory, and IO When systems are overcommitted and resources become contended, it's hard to tell exactly the impact this has on workload productivity, or how close the system is to lockups and OOM kills. In particular, when machines work multiple jobs concurrently, the impact of overcommit in terms of latency and throughput on the individual job can be enormous. In order to maximize hardware utilization without sacrificing individual job health or risk complete machine lockups, this patch implements a way to quantify resource pressure in the system. A kernel built with CONFIG_PSI=y creates files in /proc/pressure/ that expose the percentage of time the system is stalled on CPU, memory, or IO, respectively. Stall states are aggregate versions of the per-task delay accounting delays: cpu: some tasks are runnable but not executing on a CPU memory: tasks are reclaiming, or waiting for swapin or thrashing cache io: tasks are waiting for io completions These percentages of walltime can be thought of as pressure percentages, and they give a general sense of system health and productivity loss incurred by resource overcommit. They can also indicate when the system is approaching lockup scenarios and OOMs. To do this, psi keeps track of the task states associated with each CPU and samples the time they spend in stall states. Every 2 seconds, the samples are averaged across CPUs - weighted by the CPUs' non-idle time to eliminate artifacts from unused CPUs - and translated into percentages of walltime. A running average of those percentages is maintained over 10s, 1m, and 5m periods (similar to the loadaverage).

1899ad1 Johannes Weiner 26 October 2018, 22:06:04 UTC mm: workingset: tell cache transitions from workingset thrashing Refaults happen during transitions between workingsets as well as in-place thrashing. Knowing the difference between the two has a range of applications, including measuring the impact of memory shortage on the system performance, as well as the ability to smarter balance pressure between the filesystem cache and the swap-backed workingset. During workingset transitions, inactive cache refaults and pushes out established active cache. When that active cache isn't stale, however, and also ends up refaulting, that's bonafide thrashing. Introduce a new page flag that tells on eviction whether the page has been active or not in its lifetime. This bit is then stored in the shadow entry, to classify refaults as transitioning or thrashing. How many page->flags does this leave us with on 32-bit? 20 bits are always page flags 21 if you have an MMU 23 with the zone bits for DMA, Normal, HighMem, Movable 29 with the sparsemem section bits 30 if PAE is enabled 31 with this patch. So on 32-bit PAE, that leaves 1 bit for distinguishing two NUMA nodes. If that's not enough, the system can switch to discontigmem and re-gain the 6 or 7 sparsemem section bits.

95f9ab2 Johannes Weiner 26 October 2018, 22:05:59 UTC mm: workingset: don't drop refault information prematurely Patch series "psi: pressure stall information for CPU, memory, and IO", v4. Overview PSI reports the overall wallclock time in which the tasks in a system (or cgroup) wait for (contended) hardware resources. This helps users understand the resource pressure their workloads are under, which allows them to rootcause and fix throughput and latency problems caused by overcommitting, underprovisioning, suboptimal job placement in a grid; as well as anticipate major disruptions like OOM. Real-world applications We're using the data collected by PSI (and its previous incarnation, memdelay) quite extensively at Facebook, and with several success stories. One usecase is avoiding OOM hangs/livelocks. The reason these happen is because the OOM killer is triggered by reclaim not being able to free pages, but with fast flash devices there is *always* some clean and uptodate cache to reclaim; the OOM killer never kicks in, even as tasks spend 90% of the time thrashing the cache pages of their own executables. There is no situation where this ever makes sense in practice. We wrote a <100 line POC python script to monitor memory pressure and kill stuff way before such pathological thrashing leads to full system losses that would require forcible hard resets. We've since extended and deployed this code into other places to guarantee latency and throughput SLAs, since they're usually violated way before the kernel OOM killer would ever kick in. It is available here: https://github.com/facebookincubator/oomd Eventually we probably want to trigger the in-kernel OOM killer based on extreme sustained pressure as well, so that Linux can avoid memory livelocks - which technically aren't deadlocks, but to the user indistinguishable from them - out of the box. We'd continue using OOMD as the first line of defense to ensure workload health and implement complex kill policies that are beyond the scope of the kernel. We also use PSI memory pressure for loadshedding. Our batch job infrastructure used to use heuristics based on various VM stats to anticipate OOM situations, with lackluster success. We switched it to PSI and managed to anticipate and avoid OOM kills and lockups fairly reliably. The reduction of OOM outages in the worker pool raised the pool's aggregate productivity, and we were able to switch that service to smaller machines. Lastly, we use cgroups to isolate a machine's main workload from maintenance crap like package upgrades, logging, configuration, as well as to prevent multiple workloads on a machine from stepping on each others' toes. We were not able to configure this properly without the pressure metrics; we would see latency or bandwidth drops, but it would often be hard to impossible to rootcause it post-mortem. We now log and graph pressure for the containers in our fleet and can trivially link latency spikes and throughput drops to shortages of specific resources after the fact, and fix the job config/scheduling. PSI has also received testing, feedback, and feature requests from Android and EndlessOS for the purpose of low-latency OOM killing, to intervene in pressure situations before the UI starts hanging. How do you use this feature? A kernel with CONFIG_PSI=y will create a /proc/pressure directory with 3 files: cpu, memory, and io. If using cgroup2, cgroups will also have cpu.pressure, memory.pressure and io.pressure files, which simply aggregate task stalls at the cgroup level instead of system-wide. The cpu file contains one line: some avg10=2.04 avg60=0.75 avg300=0.40 total=157656722 The averages give the percentage of walltime in which one or more tasks are delayed on the runqueue while another task has the CPU. They're recent averages over 10s, 1m, 5m windows, so you can tell short term trends from long term ones, similarly to the load average. The total= value gives the absolute stall time in microseconds. This allows detecting latency spikes that might be too short to sway the running averages. It also allows custom time averaging in case the 10s/1m/5m windows aren't adequate for the usecase (or are too coarse with future hardware). What to make of this "some" metric? If CPU utilization is at 100% and CPU pressure is 0, it means the system is perfectly utilized, with one runnable thread per CPU and nobody waiting. At two or more runnable tasks per CPU, the system is 100% overcommitted and the pressure average will indicate as much. From a utilization perspective this is a great state of course: no CPU cycles are being wasted, even when 50% of the threads were to go idle (as most workloads do vary). From the perspective of the individual job it's not great, however, and they would do better with more resources. Depending on what your priority and options are, raised "some" numbers may or may not require action. The memory file contains two lines: some avg10=70.24 avg60=68.52 avg300=69.91 total=3559632828 full avg10=57.59 avg60=58.06 avg300=60.38 total=3300487258 The some line is the same as for cpu, the time in which at least one task is stalled on the resource. In the case of memory, this includes waiting on swap-in, page cache refaults and page reclaim. The full line, however, indicates time in which *nobody* is using the CPU productively due to pressure: all non-idle tasks are waiting for memory in one form or another. Significant time spent in there is a good trigger for killing things, moving jobs to other machines, or dropping incoming requests, since neither the jobs nor the machine overall are making too much headway. The io file is similar to memory. Because the block layer doesn't have a concept of hardware contention right now (how much longer is my IO request taking due to other tasks?), it reports CPU potential lost on all IO delays, not just the potential lost due to competition. FAQ Q: How is PSI's CPU component different from the load average? A: There are several quirks in the load average that make it hard to impossible to tell how overcommitted the CPU really is. 1. The load average is reported as a raw number of active tasks. You need to know how many CPUs there are in the system, how many CPUs the workload is allowed to use, then think about what the proportion between load and the number of CPUs mean for the tasks trying to run. PSI reports the percentage of wallclock time in which tasks are waiting for a CPU to run on. It doesn't matter how many CPUs are present or usable. The number always tells the quality of life of tasks in the system or in a particular cgroup. 2. The shortest averaging window is 1m, which is extremely coarse, and it's sampled in 5s intervals. A *lot* can happen on a CPU in 5 seconds. This *may* be able to identify persistent long-term trends and very clear and obvious overloads, but it's unusable for latency spikes and more subtle overutilization. PSI's shortest window is 10s. It also exports the cumulative stall times (in microseconds) of synchronously recorded events. 3. On Linux, the load average for historical reasons includes all TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE tasks. This gives a broader sense of how busy the system is, but on the flipside it doesn't distinguish whether tasks are likely to contend over the CPU or IO - which obviously requires very different interventions from a sys admin or a job scheduler. PSI reports independent metrics for CPU and IO. You can tell which resource is making the tasks wait, but in conjunction still see how overloaded the system is overall. Q: What's the cost / performance impact of this feature? A: PSI's primary cost is in the scheduler, in particular task wakeups and sleeps. I benchmarked this code using Facebook's two most scheduling sensitive workloads: memcache and webserver. They handle a ton of small requests - lots of wakeups and sleeps with little actual work in between - so they tend to be canaries for scheduler regressions. In the tests, the boxes were handling live traffic over the course of several hours. Half the machines, the control, ran with CONFIG_PSI=n. For memcache I used eight machines total. They're 2-socket, 14 core, 56 thread boxes. The test runs for half the test period, flips the test and control kernels on the hardware to rule out HW factors, DC location etc., then runs the other half of the test. For the webservers, I used 32 machines total. They're single socket, 16 core, 32 thread machines. During the memcache test, CPU load was nopsi=78.05% psi=78.98% in the first half and nopsi=77.52% psi=78.25%, so PSI added between 0.7 and 0.9 percentage points to the CPU load, a difference of about 1%. UPDATE: I re-ran this test with the v3 version of this patch set and the CPU utilization was equivalent between test and control. UPDATE: v4 is on par with v3. As far as end-to-end request latency from the client perspective goes, we don't sample those finely enough to capture the requests going to those particular machines during the test, but we know the p50 turnaround time in this workload is 54us, and perf bench sched pipe on those machines show nopsi=5.232666 us/op and psi=5.587347 us/op, so this doesn't add much here either. The profile for the pipe benchmark shows: 0.87% sched-pipe [kernel.vmlinux] [k] psi_group_change 0.83% perf.real [kernel.vmlinux] [k] psi_group_change 0.82% perf.real [kernel.vmlinux] [k] psi_task_change 0.58% sched-pipe [kernel.vmlinux] [k] psi_task_change The webserver load is running inside 4 nested cgroup levels. The CPU load with both nopsi and psi kernels was indistinguishable at 81%. For comparison, we had to disable the cgroup cpu controller on the webservers because it added 4 percentage points to the CPU% during this same exact test. Versions of this accounting code now run on 80% of our fleet. None of our workloads have reported regressions during the rollout.

Nicely : done! This patch (of 9): If we keep just enough refault information to match the *current* page cache during reclaim time, we could lose a lot of events when there is only a temporary spike in non-cache memory consumption that pushes out all the cache. Once cache comes back, we won't see those refaults. They might not be actionable for LRU aging, but we want to know about them for measuring memory pressure.

61f94e1 Vlastimil Babka 26 October 2018, 22:05:50 UTC mm, proc: add KReclaimable to /proc/meminfo The vmstat NR_KERNEL_MISC_RECLAIMABLE counter is for kernel non-slab allocations that can be reclaimed via shrinker. In /proc/meminfo, we can show the sum of all reclaimable kernel allocations (including slab) as "KReclaimable". Add the same counter also to per-node meminfo under /sys With this counter, users will have more complete information about kernel memory usage. Non-slab reclaimable pages (currently just the ION allocator) will not be missing from /proc/meminfo, making users wonder where part of their memory went. More precisely, they already appear in MemAvailable, but without the new counter, it's not obvious why the value in MemAvailable doesn't fully correspond with the sum of other counters participating in it.

b29940c Vlastimil Babka 26 October 2018, 22:05:46 UTC mm: rename and change semantics of nr_indirectly_reclaimable_bytes The vmstat counter NR_INDIRECTLY_RECLAIMABLE_BYTES was introduced by commit eb59254608bc ("mm: introduce NR_INDIRECTLY_RECLAIMABLE_BYTES") with the goal of accounting objects that can be reclaimed, but cannot be allocated via a SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT cache. This is now possible via kmalloc() with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE flag, and the dcache external names user is converted. The counter is however still useful for accounting direct page allocations (i.e. not slab) with a shrinker, such as the ION page pool. So keep it, and: - change granularity to pages to be more like other counters; sub-page allocations should be able to use kmalloc - rename the counter to NR_KERNEL_MISC_RECLAIMABLE - expose the counter again in vmstat as "nr_kernel_misc_reclaimable"; we can again remove the check for not printing "hidden" counters Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180731090649.16028-5-vbabka@suse.cz Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Acked-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Acked-by: Roman Gushchin <guro@fb.com> Cc: Vijayanand Jitta <vjitta@codeaurora.org> Cc: Laura Abbott <labbott@redhat.com> Cc: Sumit Semwal <sumit.semwal@linaro.org> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 26 October 2018, 23:26:32 UTC
2e03b4b Vlastimil Babka 26 October 2018, 22:05:41 UTC dcache: allocate external names from reclaimable kmalloc caches We can use the newly introduced kmalloc-reclaimable-X caches, to allocate external names in dcache, which will take care of the proper accounting automatically, and also improve anti-fragmentation page grouping. This effectively reverts commit f1782c9bc547 ("dcache: account external names as indirectly reclaimable memory") and instead passes __GFP_RECLAIMABLE to kmalloc(). The accounting thus moves from NR_INDIRECTLY_RECLAIMABLE_BYTES to NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE, which is also considered in MemAvailable calculation and overcommit decisions.

1291523 Vlastimil Babka 26 October 2018, 22:05:38 UTC mm, slab/slub: introduce kmalloc-reclaimable caches Kmem caches can be created with a SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT flag, which indicates they contain objects which can be reclaimed under memory pressure (typically through a shrinker). This makes the slab pages accounted as NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE in vmstat, which is reflected also the MemAvailable meminfo counter and in overcommit decisions. The slab pages are also allocated with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE, which is good for anti-fragmentation through grouping pages by mobility. The generic kmalloc-X caches are created without this flag, but sometimes are used also for objects that can be reclaimed, which due to varying size cannot have a dedicated kmem cache with SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT flag. A prominent example are dcache external names, which prompted the creation of a new, manually managed vmstat counter NR_INDIRECTLY_RECLAIMABLE_BYTES in commit f1782c9bc547 ("dcache: account external names as indirectly reclaimable memory"). To better handle this and any other similar cases, this patch introduces SLAB_RECLAIM_ACCOUNT variants of kmalloc caches, named kmalloc-rcl-X. They are used whenever the kmalloc() call passes __GFP_RECLAIMABLE among gfp flags. They are added to the kmalloc_caches array as a new type. Allocations with both __GFP_DMA and __GFP_RECLAIMABLE will use a dma type cache. This change only applies to SLAB and SLUB, not SLOB. This is fine, since SLOB's target are tiny system and this patch does add some overhead of kmem management objects.

cc252ea Vlastimil Babka 26 October 2018, 22:05:34 UTC mm, slab: combine kmalloc_caches and kmalloc_dma_caches Patch series "kmalloc-reclaimable caches", v4. As discussed at LSF/MM [1] here's a patchset that introduces kmalloc-reclaimable caches (more details in the second patch) and uses them for dcache external names. That allows us to repurpose the NR_INDIRECTLY_RECLAIMABLE_BYTES counter later in the series. With patch 3/6, dcache external names are allocated from kmalloc-rcl-* caches, eliminating the need for manual accounting. More importantly, it also ensures the reclaimable kmalloc allocations are grouped in pages separate from the regular kmalloc allocations. The need for proper accounting of dcache external names has shown it's easy for misbehaving process to allocate lots of them, causing premature OOMs. Without the added grouping, it's likely that a similar workload can interleave the dcache external names allocations with regular kmalloc allocations (note: I haven't searched myself for an example of such regular kmalloc allocation, but I would be very surprised if there wasn't some). A pathological case would be e.g. one 64byte regular allocations with 63 external dcache names in a page (64x64=4096), which means the page is not freed even after reclaiming after all dcache names, and the process can thus "steal" the whole page with single 64byte allocation. If other kmalloc users similar to dcache external names become identified, they can also benefit from the new functionality simply by adding __GFP_RECLAIMABLE to the kmalloc calls. Side benefits of the patchset (that could be also merged separately) include removed branch for detecting __GFP_DMA kmalloc(), and shortening kmalloc cache names in /proc/slabinfo output. The latter is potentially an ABI break in case there are tools parsing the names and expecting the values to be in bytes. This is how /proc/slabinfo looks like after booting in virtme: ... kmalloc-rcl-4M 0 0 4194304 1 1024 : tunables 1 1 0 : slabdata 0 0 0 ... kmalloc-rcl-96 7 32 128 32 1 : tunables 120 60 8 : slabdata 1 1 0 kmalloc-rcl-64 25 128 64 64 1 : tunables 120 60 8 : slabdata 2 2 0 kmalloc-rcl-32 0 0 32 124 1 : tunables 120 60 8 : slabdata 0 0 0 kmalloc-4M 0 0 4194304 1 1024 : tunables 1 1 0 : slabdata 0 0 0 kmalloc-2M 0 0 2097152 1 512 : tunables 1 1 0 : slabdata 0 0 0 kmalloc-1M 0 0 1048576 1 256 : tunables 1 1 0 : slabdata 0 0 0 ... /proc/vmstat with renamed nr_indirectly_reclaimable_bytes counter: ... nr_slab_reclaimable 2817 nr_slab_unreclaimable 1781 ... nr_kernel_misc_reclaimable 0 ... /proc/meminfo with new KReclaimable counter: ...

This patch (of 6): The kmalloc caches currently mainain separate (optional) array kmalloc_dma_caches for __GFP_DMA allocations. There are tests for __GFP_DMA in the allocation hotpaths. We can avoid the branches by combining kmalloc_caches and kmalloc_dma_caches into a single two-dimensional array where the outer dimension is cache "type". This will also allow to add kmalloc-reclaimable caches as a third type.
