| 2813893 | Iulia Manda | 15 April 2015, 23:16:41 UTC | kernel: conditionally support non-root users, groups and capabilities There are a lot of embedded systems that run most or all of their functionality in init, running as root:root. For these systems, supporting multiple users is not necessary. This patch adds a new symbol, CONFIG_MULTIUSER, that makes support for non-root users, non-root groups, and capabilities optional. It is enabled under CONFIG_EXPERT menu. When this symbol is not defined, UID and GID are zero in any possible case and processes always have all capabilities. The following syscalls are compiled out: setuid, setregid, setgid, setreuid, setresuid, getresuid, setresgid, getresgid, setgroups, getgroups, setfsuid, setfsgid, capget, capset. Also, groups.c is compiled out completely. In kernel/capability.c, capable function was moved in order to avoid adding two ifdef blocks. This change saves about 25 KB on a defconfig build. The most minimal kernels have total text sizes in the high hundreds of kB rather than low MB. (The 25k goes down a bit with allnoconfig, but not that much. The kernel was booted in Qemu. All the common functionalities work. Adding users/groups is not possible, failing with -ENOSYS.

| 10447b6 | Sergey Senozhatsky | 15 April 2015, 23:15:52 UTC | zram: remove `num_migrated' device attr This patch introduces rework to zram stats. We have per-stat sysfs nodes, and it makes things a bit hard to use in user space: it doesn't give an immediate stats 'snapshot', it requires user space to use more syscalls - open, read, close for every stat file, with appropriate error checks on every step, etc. First, zram now accounts block layer statistics, available in /sys/block/zram<id>/stat and /proc/diskstats files. So some new stats are available (see Documentation/block/stat.txt), besides, zram's activities now can be monitored by sysstat's iostat or similar tools. Example: cat /sys/block/zram0/stat 248 0 1984 0 251029 0 2008232 5120 0 5116 5116 Second, group currently exported on per-stat basis nodes into two categories (files): -- zram<id>/io_stat accumulates device's IO stats, that are not accounted by block layer, and contains: failed_reads failed_writes invalid_io notify_free Example: cat /sys/block/zram0/io_stat 0 0 0 652572 -- zram<id>/mm_stat accumulates zram mm stats and contains: orig_data_size compr_data_size mem_used_total mem_limit mem_used_max zero_pages num_migrated Example: cat /sys/block/zram0/mm_stat 434634752 270288572 279158784 0 579895296 15060 0 per-stat sysfs nodes are now considered to be deprecated and we plan to remove them (and clean up some of the existing stat code) in two years (as of now, there is no warning printed to syslog about deprecated stats being used). User space is advised to use the above mentioned 3 files. This patch (of 7): Remove sysfs `num_migrated' attribute. We are moving away from per-stat device attrs towards 3 stat files that will accumulate io and mm stats in a format similar to block layer statistics in /sys/block/<dev>/stat. That will be easier to use in user space, and reduce the number of syscalls needed to read zram device statistics. `num_migrated' will return back in zram<id>/mm_stat file.

If zram stores 4096 bytes to zsmalloc(ie, bad compression), zsmalloc needs 4104B-class to add handle. However, 4104B-class has 1-pages_per_zspage so wasted size by internal fragment is 8192 - 4104, which is terrible. So this patch records the handle in page->private on such huge object(ie, pages_per_zspage == 1 && maxobj_per_zspage == 1) instead of header of each object so we could use 4096B-class, not 4104B-class.

| 312fcae | Minchan Kim | 15 April 2015, 23:15:30 UTC | zsmalloc: support compaction This patch provides core functions for migration of zsmalloc. Migraion policy is simple as follows. for each size class { while { src_page = get zs_page from ZS_ALMOST_EMPTY if (!src_page) break; dst_page = get zs_page from ZS_ALMOST_FULL if (!dst_page) dst_page = get zs_page from ZS_ALMOST_EMPTY if (!dst_page) break; migrate(from src_page, to dst_page); } } For migration, we need to identify which objects in zspage are allocated to migrate them out. We could know it by iterating of freed objects in a zspage because first_page of zspage keeps free objects singly-linked list but it's not efficient. Instead, this patch adds a tag(ie, OBJ_ALLOCATED_TAG) in header of each object(ie, handle) so we could check whether the object is allocated easily. This patch adds another status bit in handle to synchronize between user access through zs_map_object and migration. During migration, we cannot move objects user are using due to data coherency between old object and new object.

| 2e40e16 | Minchan Kim | 15 April 2015, 23:15:23 UTC | zsmalloc: decouple handle and object Recently, we started to use zram heavily and some of issues popped. 1) external fragmentation I got a report from Juneho Choi that fork failed although there are plenty of free pages in the system. His investigation revealed zram is one of the culprit to make heavy fragmentation so there was no more contiguous 16K page for pgd to fork in the ARM. 2) non-movable pages Other problem of zram now is that inherently, user want to use zram as swap in small memory system so they use zRAM with CMA to use memory efficiently. However, unfortunately, it doesn't work well because zRAM cannot use CMA's movable pages unless it doesn't support compaction. I got several reports about that OOM happened with zram although there are lots of swap space and free space in CMA area. 3) internal fragmentation zRAM has started support memory limitation feature to limit memory usage and I sent a patchset(https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/21/148) for VM to be harmonized with zram-swap to stop anonymous page reclaim if zram consumed memory up to the limit although there are free space on the swap. One problem for that direction is zram has no way to know any hole in memory space zsmalloc allocated by internal fragmentation so zram would regard swap is full although there are free space in zsmalloc. For solving the issue, zram want to trigger compaction of zsmalloc before it decides full or not. This patchset is first step to support above issues. For that, it adds indirect layer between handle and object location and supports manual compaction to solve 3th problem first of all. After this patchset got merged, next step is to make VM aware of zsmalloc compaction so that generic compaction will move zsmalloced-pages automatically in runtime. In my imaginary experiment(ie, high compress ratio data with heavy swap in/out on 8G zram-swap), data is as follows, Before = zram allocated object : 60212066 bytes zram total used: 140103680 bytes ratio: 42.98 percent MemFree: 840192 kB Compaction After = frag ratio after compaction zram allocated object : 60212066 bytes zram total used: 76185600 bytes ratio: 79.03 percent MemFree: 901932 kB Juneho reported below in his real platform with small aging. So, I think the benefit would be bigger in real aging system for a long time. - frag_ratio increased 3% (ie, higher is better) - memfree increased about 6MB - In buddy info, Normal 2^3: 4, 2^2: 1: 2^1 increased, Highmem: 2^1 21 increased frag ratio after swap fragment used : 156677 kbytes total: 166092 kbytes frag_ratio : 94 meminfo before compaction MemFree: 83724 kB Node 0, zone Normal 13642 1364 57 10 61 17 9 5 4 0 0 Node 0, zone HighMem 425 29 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 num_migrated : 23630 compaction done frag ratio after compaction used : 156673 kbytes total: 160564 kbytes frag_ratio : 97 meminfo after compaction MemFree: 89060 kB Node 0, zone Normal 14076 1544 67 14 61 17 9 5 4 0 0 Node 0, zone HighMem 863 50 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 This patchset adds more logics(about 480 lines) in zsmalloc but when I tested heavy swapin/out program, the regression for swapin/out speed is marginal because most of overheads were caused by compress/decompress and other MM reclaim stuff. This patch (of 7): Currently, handle of zsmalloc encodes object's location directly so it makes support of migration hard. This patch decouples handle and object via adding indirect layer. For that, it allocates handle dynamically and returns it to user. The handle is the address allocated by slab allocation so it's unique and we could keep object's location in the memory space allocated for handle. With it, we can change object's position without changing handle itself.

What we do here is make generic_file_splice_read aware of IS_DAX() so the original ext2/4_file_operations can be used as is. For write it appears that iter_file_splice_write is just fine.

| dd90618 | Boaz Harrosh | 15 April 2015, 23:15:11 UTC | mm: new pfn_mkwrite same as page_mkwrite for VM_PFNMAP This will allow FS that uses VM_PFNMAP | VM_MIXEDMAP (no page structs) to get notified when access is a write to a read-only PFN. This can happen if we mmap() a file then first mmap-read from it to page-in a read-only PFN, than we mmap-write to the same page. We need this functionality to fix a DAX bug, where in the scenario above we fail to set ctime/mtime though we modified the file. An xfstest is attached to this patchset that shows the failure and the fix. (A DAX patch will follow) This functionality is extra important for us, because upon dirtying of a pmem page we also want to RDMA the page to a remote cluster node. We define a new pfn_mkwrite and do not reuse page_mkwrite because 1 - The name ;-) 2 - But mainly because it would take a very long and tedious audit of all page_mkwrite functions of VM_MIXEDMAP/VM_PFNMAP users. To make sure they do not now CRASH. For example current DAX code (which this is for) would crash. If we would want to reuse page_mkwrite, We will need to first patch all users, so to not-crash-on-no-page. Then enable this patch. But even if I did that I would not sleep so well at night. Adding a new vector is the safest thing to do, and is not that expensive. an extra pointer at a static function vector per driver. Also the new vector is better for performance, because else we Will call all current Kernel vectors, so to: check-ha-no-page-do-nothing and return.

Note that hugepages' activeness means just being linked to hstate->hugepage_activelist, which is not the same as normal pages' activeness represented by PageActive flag. Normal pages are isolated by isolate_lru_page() which prechecks PageLRU before isolation, so let's do similarly for hugetlb with a new paeg_huge_active(). set/clear_page_huge_active() should be called within hugetlb_lock. But hugetlb_cow() and hugetlb_no_page() don't do this, being justified because in these functions set_page_huge_active() is called right after the hugepage is allocated and no other thread tries to isolate it.

| bdfedb7 | David Rientjes | 15 April 2015, 23:14:17 UTC | mm, mempool: poison elements backed by slab allocator Mempools keep elements in a reserved pool for contexts in which allocation may not be possible. When an element is allocated from the reserved pool, its memory contents is the same as when it was added to the reserved pool. Because of this, elements lack any free poisoning to detect use-after-free errors. This patch adds free poisoning for elements backed by the slab allocator. This is possible because the mempool layer knows the object size of each element. When an element is added to the reserved pool, it is poisoned with POISON_FREE. When it is removed from the reserved pool, the contents are checked for POISON_FREE. If there is a mismatch, a warning is emitted to the kernel log. This is only effective for configs with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB or CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON.

| ee14624 | David Rientjes | 15 April 2015, 23:14:11 UTC | fs, jfs: remove slab object constructor Mempools based on slab caches with object constructors are risky because element allocation can happen either from the slab cache itself, meaning the constructor is properly called before returning, or from the mempool reserve pool, meaning the constructor is not called before returning, depending on the allocation context. For this reason, we should disallow creating mempools based on slab caches that have object constructors. Callers of mempool_alloc() will be responsible for properly initializing the returned element. Then, it doesn't matter if the element came from the slab cache or the mempool reserved pool. The only occurrence of a mempool being based on a slab cache with an object constructor in the tree is in fs/jfs/jfs_metapage.c. Remove it and properly initialize the element in alloc_metapage(). At the same time, META_free is never used, so remove it as well.

| 1221518 | Derek | 15 April 2015, 23:13:58 UTC | mremap should return -ENOMEM when __vm_enough_memory fail Recently I straced bash behavior in this dd zero pipe to read test, in part of testing under vm.overcommit_memory=2 (OVERCOMMIT_NEVER mode): # dd if=/dev/zero | read x The bash sub shell is calling mremap to reallocate more and more memory untill it finally failed -ENOMEM (I expect), or to be killed by system OOM killer (which should not happen under OVERCOMMIT_NEVER mode); But the mremap system call actually failed of -EFAULT, which is a surprise to me, I think it's supposed to be -ENOMEM? then I wrote this piece of C code testing confirmed it: https://gist.github.com/crquan/326bde37e1ddda8effe5 $ ./remap allocated one page @0x7f686bf71000, (PAGE_SIZE: 4096) grabbed 7680512000 bytes of memory (1875125 pages) @ 00007f6690993000. mremap failed Bad address (14). The -EFAULT comes from the branch of security_vm_enough_memory_mm failure, underlyingly it calls __vm_enough_memory which returns only 0 for success or -ENOMEM; So why vma_to_resize needs to return -EFAULT in this case? this sounds like a mistake to me. Some more digging into git history: 1) Before commit 119f657c7 ("RLIMIT_AS checking fix") in May 1 2005 (pre 2.6.12 days) it was returning -ENOMEM for this failure; 2) but commit 119f657c7 ("untangling do_mremap(), part 1") changed it accidentally, to what ever is preserved in local ret, which happened to be -EFAULT, in a previous assignment; 3) then in commit 54f5de709 code refactoring, it's explicitly returning -EFAULT, should be wrong.

| 7d61bfe | Roman Pen | 15 April 2015, 23:13:55 UTC | mm/vmalloc: get rid of dirty bitmap inside vmap_block structure In original implementation of vm_map_ram made by Nick Piggin there were two bitmaps: alloc_map and dirty_map. None of them were used as supposed to be: finding a suitable free hole for next allocation in block. vm_map_ram allocates space sequentially in block and on free call marks pages as dirty, so freed space can't be reused anymore. Actually it would be very interesting to know the real meaning of those bitmaps, maybe implementation was incomplete, etc. But long time ago Zhang Yanfei removed alloc_map by these two commits: mm/vmalloc.c: remove dead code in vb_alloc 3fcd76e8028e0be37b02a2002b4f56755daeda06 mm/vmalloc.c: remove alloc_map from vmap_block b8e748b6c32999f221ea4786557b8e7e6c4e4e7a In this patch I replaced dirty_map with two range variables: dirty min and max. These variables store minimum and maximum position of dirty space in a block, since we need only to know the dirty range, not exact position of dirty pages. Why it was made? Several reasons: at first glance it seems that vm_map_ram allocator concerns about fragmentation thus it uses bitmaps for finding free hole, but it is not true. To avoid complexity seems it is better to use something simple, like min or max range values. Secondly, code also becomes simpler, without iteration over bitmap, just comparing values in min and max macros. Thirdly, bitmap occupies up to 1024 bits (4MB is a max size of a block). Here I replaced the whole bitmap with two longs. Finally vm_unmap_aliases should be slightly faster and the whole vmap_block structure occupies less memory.

| cf725ce | Roman Pen | 15 April 2015, 23:13:52 UTC | mm/vmalloc: occupy newly allocated vmap block just after allocation Previous implementation allocates new vmap block and repeats search of a free block from the very beginning, iterating over the CPU free list. Why it can be better?? 1. Allocation can happen on one CPU, but search can be done on another CPU. In worst case we preallocate amount of vmap blocks which is equal to CPU number on the system. 2. In previous patch I added newly allocated block to the tail of free list to avoid soon exhaustion of virtual space and give a chance to occupy blocks which were allocated long time ago. Thus to find newly allocated block all the search sequence should be repeated, seems it is not efficient. In this patch newly allocated block is occupied right away, address of virtual space is returned to the caller, so there is no any need to repeat the search sequence, allocation job is done.

| 68ac546 | Roman Pen | 15 April 2015, 23:13:48 UTC | mm/vmalloc: fix possible exhaustion of vmalloc space caused by vm_map_ram allocator Recently I came across high fragmentation of vm_map_ram allocator: vmap_block has free space, but still new blocks continue to appear. Further investigation showed that certain mapping/unmapping sequences can exhaust vmalloc space. On small 32bit systems that's not a big problem, cause purging will be called soon on a first allocation failure (alloc_vmap_area), but on 64bit machines, e.g. x86_64 has 45 bits of vmalloc space, that can be a disaster. 1) I came up with a simple allocation sequence, which exhausts virtual space very quickly: while (iters) { /* Map/unmap big chunk */ vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 16, -1, PAGE_KERNEL); vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 16); /* Map/unmap small chunks. * * -1 for hole, which should be left at the end of each block * to keep it partially used, with some free space available */ for (i = 0; i < (VMAP_BBMAP_BITS - 16) / 8 - 1; i++) { vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 8, -1, PAGE_KERNEL); vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 8); } } The idea behind is simple: 1. We have to map a big chunk, e.g. 16 pages. 2. Then we have to occupy the remaining space with smaller chunks, i.e. 8 pages. At the end small hole should remain to keep block in free list, but do not let big chunk to occupy remaining space. 3. Goto 1 - allocation request of 16 pages can't be completed (only 8 slots are left free in the block in the #2 step), new block will be allocated, all further requests will lay into newly allocated block. To have some measurement numbers for all further tests I setup ftrace and enabled 4 basic calls in a function profile: echo vm_map_ram > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter; echo alloc_vmap_area >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter; echo vm_unmap_ram >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter; echo free_vmap_block >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter; So for this scenario I got these results: BEFORE (all new blocks are put to the head of a free list) # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_stat/function0 Function Hit Time Avg s^2 -------- --- ---- --- --- vm_map_ram 126000 30683.30 us 0.243 us 30819.36 us vm_unmap_ram 126000 22003.24 us 0.174 us 340.886 us alloc_vmap_area 1000 4132.065 us 4.132 us 0.903 us AFTER (all new blocks are put to the tail of a free list) # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_stat/function0 Function Hit Time Avg s^2 -------- --- ---- --- --- vm_map_ram 126000 28713.13 us 0.227 us 24944.70 us vm_unmap_ram 126000 20403.96 us 0.161 us 1429.872 us alloc_vmap_area 993 3916.795 us 3.944 us 29.370 us free_vmap_block 992 654.157 us 0.659 us 1.273 us SUMMARY: The most interesting numbers in those tables are numbers of block allocations and deallocations: alloc_vmap_area and free_vmap_block calls, which show that before the change blocks were not freed, and virtual space and physical memory (vmap_block structure allocations, etc) were consumed. Average time which were spent in vm_map_ram/vm_unmap_ram became slightly better. That can be explained with a reasonable amount of blocks in a free list, which we need to iterate to find a suitable free block. 2) Another scenario is a random allocation: while (iters) { /* Randomly take number from a range [1..32/64] */ nr = rand(1, VMAP_MAX_ALLOC); vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, nr, -1, PAGE_KERNEL); vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, nr); } I chose mersenne twister PRNG to generate persistent random state to guarantee that both runs have the same random sequence. For each vm_map_ram call random number from [1..32/64] was taken to represent amount of pages which I do map. I did 10'000 vm_map_ram calls and got these two tables: BEFORE (all new blocks are put to the head of a free list) # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_stat/function0 Function Hit Time Avg s^2 -------- --- ---- --- --- vm_map_ram 10000 10170.01 us 1.017 us 993.609 us vm_unmap_ram 10000 5321.823 us 0.532 us 59.789 us alloc_vmap_area 420 2150.239 us 5.119 us 3.307 us free_vmap_block 37 159.587 us 4.313 us 134.344 us AFTER (all new blocks are put to the tail of a free list) # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_stat/function0 Function Hit Time Avg s^2 -------- --- ---- --- --- vm_map_ram 10000 7745.637 us 0.774 us 395.229 us vm_unmap_ram 10000 5460.573 us 0.546 us 67.187 us alloc_vmap_area 414 2201.650 us 5.317 us 5.591 us free_vmap_block 412 574.421 us 1.394 us 15.138 us SUMMARY: 'BEFORE' table shows, that 420 blocks were allocated and only 37 were freed. Remained 383 blocks are still in a free list, consuming virtual space and physical memory. 'AFTER' table shows, that 414 blocks were allocated and 412 were really freed. 2 blocks remained in a free list. So fragmentation was dramatically reduced. Why? Because when we put newly allocated block to the head, all further requests will occupy new block, regardless remained space in other blocks. In this scenario all requests come randomly. Eventually remained free space will be less than requested size, free list will be iterated and it is possible that nothing will be found there - finally new block will be created. So exhaustion in random scenario happens for the maximum possible allocation size: 32 pages for 32-bit system and 64 pages for 64-bit system. Also average cost of vm_map_ram was reduced from 1.017 us to 0.774 us. Again this can be explained by iteration through smaller list of free blocks. 3) Next simple scenario is a sequential allocation, when the allocation order is increased for each block. This scenario forces allocator to reach maximum amount of partially free blocks in a free list: while (iters) { /* Populate free list with blocks with remaining space */ for (order = 0; order <= ilog2(VMAP_MAX_ALLOC); order++) { nr = VMAP_BBMAP_BITS / (1 << order); /* Leave a hole */ nr -= 1; for (i = 0; i < nr; i++) { vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, (1 << order), -1, PAGE_KERNEL); vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, (1 << order)); } /* Completely occupy blocks from a free list */ for (order = 0; order <= ilog2(VMAP_MAX_ALLOC); order++) { vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, (1 << order), -1, PAGE_KERNEL); vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, (1 << order)); } } Results which I got: BEFORE (all new blocks are put to the head of a free list) # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_stat/function0 Function Hit Time Avg s^2 -------- --- ---- --- --- vm_map_ram 2032000 399545.2 us 0.196 us 467123.7 us vm_unmap_ram 2032000 363225.7 us 0.178 us 111405.9 us alloc_vmap_area 7001 30627.76 us 4.374 us 495.755 us free_vmap_block 6993 7011.685 us 1.002 us 159.090 us AFTER (all new blocks are put to the tail of a free list) # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_stat/function0 Function Hit Time Avg s^2 -------- --- ---- --- --- vm_map_ram 2032000 394259.7 us 0.194 us 589395.9 us vm_unmap_ram 2032000 292500.7 us 0.143 us 94181.08 us alloc_vmap_area 7000 31103.11 us 4.443 us 703.225 us free_vmap_block 7000 6750.844 us 0.964 us 119.112 us SUMMARY: No surprises here, almost all numbers are the same. Fixing this fragmentation problem I also did some improvements in a allocation logic of a new vmap block: occupy block immediately and get rid of extra search in a free list. Also I replaced dirty bitmap with min/max dirty range values to make the logic simpler and slightly faster, since two longs comparison costs less, than loop thru bitmap. This patchset raises several questions: Q: Think the problem you comments is already known so that I wrote comments about it as "it could consume lots of address space through fragmentation". Could you tell me about your situation and reason why it should be avoided? Gioh Kim A: Indeed, there was a commit 364376383 which adds explicit comment about fragmentation. But fragmentation which is described in this comment caused by mixing of long-lived and short-lived objects, when a whole block is pinned in memory because some page slots are still in use. But here I am talking about blocks which are free, nobody uses them, and allocator keeps them alive forever, continuously allocating new blocks. Q: I think that if you put newly allocated block to the tail of a free list, below example would results in enormous performance degradation. new block: 1MB (256 pages) while (iters--) { vm_map_ram(3 or something else not dividable for 256) * 85 vm_unmap_ram(3) * 85 } On every iteration, it needs newly allocated block and it is put to the tail of a free list so finding it consumes large amount of time. Joonsoo Kim A: Second patch in current patchset gets rid of extra search in a free list, so new block will be immediately occupied.. Also, the scenario above is impossible, cause vm_map_ram allocates virtual range in orders, i.e. 2^n. I.e. passing 3 to vm_map_ram you will allocate 4 slots in a block and 256 slots (capacity of a block) of course dividable on 4, so block will be completely occupied. But there is a worst case which we can achieve: each free block has a hole equal to order size. The maximum size of allocation is 64 pages for 64-bit system (if you try to map more, original alloc_vmap_area will be called). So the maximum order is 6. That means that worst case, before allocator makes a decision to allocate a new block, is to iterate 7 blocks: HEAD 1st block - has 1 page slot free (order 0) 2nd block - has 2 page slots free (order 1) 3rd block - has 4 page slots free (order 2) 4th block - has 8 page slots free (order 3) 5th block - has 16 page slots free (order 4) 6th block - has 32 page slots free (order 5) 7th block - has 64 page slots free (order 6) TAIL So the worst scenario on 64-bit system is that each CPU queue can have 7 blocks in a free list. This can happen only and only if you allocate blocks increasing the order. (as I did in the function written in the comment of the first patch) This is weird and rare case, but still it is possible. Afterwards you will get 7 blocks in a list. All further requests should be placed in a newly allocated block or some free slots should be found in a free list. Seems it does not look dramatically awful. This patch (of 3): If suitable block can't be found, new block is allocated and put into a head of a free list, so on next iteration this new block will be found first. That's bad, because old blocks in a free list will not get a chance to be fully used, thus fragmentation will grow. Let's consider this simple example: #1 We have one block in a free list which is partially used, and where only one page is free: HEAD |xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL ^ free space for 1 page, order 0 #2 New allocation request of order 1 (2 pages) comes, new block is allocated since we do not have free space to complete this request. New block is put into a head of a free list: HEAD |----------|xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL #3 Two pages were occupied in a new found block: HEAD |xx--------|xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL ^ two pages mapped here #4 New allocation request of order 0 (1 page) comes. Block, which was created on #2 step, is located at the beginning of a free list, so it will be found first: HEAD |xxX-------|xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL ^ ^ page mapped here, but better to use this hole It is obvious, that it is better to complete request of #4 step using the old block, where free space is left, because in other case fragmentation will be highly increased. But fragmentation is not only the case. The worst thing is that I can easily create scenario, when the whole vmalloc space is exhausted by blocks, which are not used, but already dirty and have several free pages. Let's consider this function which execution should be pinned to one CPU: static void exhaust_virtual_space(struct page *pages[16], int iters) { /* Firstly we have to map a big chunk, e.g. 16 pages. * Then we have to occupy the remaining space with smaller * chunks, i.e. 8 pages. At the end small hole should remain. * So at the end of our allocation sequence block looks like * this: * XX big chunk * |XXxxxxxxx-| x small chunk * - hole, which is enough for a small chunk, * but is not enough for a big chunk */ while (iters--) { int i; void *vaddr; /* Map/unmap big chunk */ vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 16, -1, PAGE_KERNEL); vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 16); /* Map/unmap small chunks. * * -1 for hole, which should be left at the end of each block * to keep it partially used, with some free space available */ for (i = 0; i < (VMAP_BBMAP_BITS - 16) / 8 - 1; i++) { vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 8, -1, PAGE_KERNEL); vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 8); } } } On every iteration new block (1MB of vm area in my case) will be allocated and then will be occupied, without attempt to resolve small allocation request using previously allocated blocks in a free list. In case of random allocation (size should be randomly taken from the range [1..64] in 64-bit case or [1..32] in 32-bit case) situation is the same: new blocks continue to appear if maximum possible allocation size (32 or 64) passed to the allocator, because all remaining blocks in a free list do not have enough free space to complete this allocation request. In summary if new blocks are put into the head of a free list eventually virtual space will be exhausted. In current patch I simply put newly allocated block to the tail of a free list, thus reduce fragmentation, giving a chance to resolve allocation request using older blocks with possible holes left.

| c6a9182 | Mike Kravetz | 15 April 2015, 23:13:36 UTC | hugetlbfs: add minimum size tracking fields to subpool structure hugetlbfs allocates huge pages from the global pool as needed. Even if the global pool contains a sufficient number pages for the filesystem size at mount time, those global pages could be grabbed for some other use. As a result, filesystem huge page allocations may fail due to lack of pages. Applications such as a database want to use huge pages for performance reasons. hugetlbfs filesystem semantics with ownership and modes work well to manage access to a pool of huge pages. However, the application would like some reasonable assurance that allocations will not fail due to a lack of huge pages. At application startup time, the application would like to configure itself to use a specific number of huge pages. Before starting, the application can check to make sure that enough huge pages exist in the system global pools. However, there are no guarantees that those pages will be available when needed by the application. What the application wants is exclusive use of a subset of huge pages. Add a new hugetlbfs mount option 'min_size=<value>' to indicate that the specified number of pages will be available for use by the filesystem. At mount time, this number of huge pages will be reserved for exclusive use of the filesystem. If there is not a sufficient number of free pages, the mount will fail. As pages are allocated to and freeed from the filesystem, the number of reserved pages is adjusted so that the specified minimum is maintained. This patch (of 4): Add a field to the subpool structure to indicate the minimimum number of huge pages to always be used by this subpool. This minimum count includes allocated pages as well as reserved pages. If the minimum number of pages for the subpool have not been allocated, pages are reserved up to this minimum. An additional field (rsv_hpages) is used to track the number of pages reserved to meet this minimum size. The hstate pointer in the subpool is convenient to have when reserving and unreserving the pages.

| 3b36369 | Michal Hocko | 15 April 2015, 23:13:29 UTC | mm, memcg: sync allocation and memcg charge gfp flags for THP memcg currently uses hardcoded GFP_TRANSHUGE gfp flags for all THP charges. THP allocations, however, might be using different flags depending on /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/{,khugepaged/}defrag and the current allocation context. The primary difference is that defrag configured to "madvise" value will clear __GFP_WAIT flag from the core gfp mask to make the allocation lighter for all mappings which are not backed by VM_HUGEPAGE vmas. If memcg charge path ignores this fact we will get light allocation but the a potential memcg reclaim would kill the whole point of the configuration. Fix the mismatch by providing the same gfp mask used for the allocation to the charge functions. This is quite easy for all paths except for hugepaged kernel thread with !CONFIG_NUMA which is doing a pre-allocation long before the allocated page is used in collapse_huge_page via khugepaged_alloc_page. To prevent from cluttering the whole code path from khugepaged_do_scan we simply return the current flags as per khugepaged_defrag() value which might have changed since the preallocation. If somebody changed the value of the knob we would charge differently but this shouldn't happen often and it is definitely not critical because it would only lead to a reduced success rate of one-off THP promotion.

| 5bbe354 | Eric B Munson | 15 April 2015, 23:13:20 UTC | mm: allow compaction of unevictable pages Currently, pages which are marked as unevictable are protected from compaction, but not from other types of migration. The POSIX real time extension explicitly states that mlock() will prevent a major page fault, but the spirit of this is that mlock() should give a process the ability to control sources of latency, including minor page faults. However, the mlock manpage only explicitly says that a locked page will not be written to swap and this can cause some confusion. The compaction code today does not give a developer who wants to avoid swap but wants to have large contiguous areas available any method to achieve this state. This patch introduces a sysctl for controlling compaction behavior with respect to the unevictable lru. Users who demand no page faults after a page is present can set compact_unevictable_allowed to 0 and users who need the large contiguous areas can enable compaction on locked memory by leaving the default value of 1. To illustrate this problem I wrote a quick test program that mmaps a large number of 1MB files filled with random data. These maps are created locked and read only. Then every other mmap is unmapped and I attempt to allocate huge pages to the static huge page pool. When the compact_unevictable_allowed sysctl is 0, I cannot allocate hugepages after fragmenting memory. When the value is set to 1, allocations succeed.

| 8d63d99 | Kirill A. Shutemov | 15 April 2015, 23:13:12 UTC | mm: avoid tail page refcounting on non-THP compound pages THP uses tail page refcounting to be able to split huge pages at any time. Tail page refcounting is not needed for other users of compound pages and it's harmful because of overhead. We try to exclude non-THP pages from tail page refcounting using __compound_tail_refcounted() check. It excludes most common non-THP compound pages: SL*B and hugetlb, but it doesn't catch rest of __GFP_COMP users -- drivers. And it's not only about overhead. Drivers might want to use compound pages to get refcounting semantics suitable for mapping high-order pages to userspace. But tail page refcounting breaks it. Tail page refcounting uses ->_mapcount in tail pages to store GUP pins on them. It means GUP pins would affect page_mapcount() for tail pages. It's not a problem for THP, because it never maps tail pages. But unlike THP, drivers map parts of compound pages with PTEs and it makes page_mapcount() be called for tail pages. In particular, GUP pins would shift PSS up and affect /proc/kpagecount for such pages. But, I'm not aware about anything which can lead to crash or other serious misbehaviour. Since currently all THP pages are anonymous and all drivers pages are not, we can fix the __compound_tail_refcounted() check by requiring PageAnon() to enable tail page refcounting.

Shutemov | 15 April 2015, 23:13:08 UTC | mm: consolidate all page-flags helpers in <linux/page-flags.h> Currently we take a naive approach to page flags on compound pages - we set the flag on the page without consideration if the flag makes sense for tail page or for compound page in general. This patchset try to sort this out by defining per-flag policy on what need to be done if page-flag helper operate on compound page. The last patch in the patchset also sanitizes usege of page->mapping for tail pages. We don't define the meaning of page->mapping for tail pages. Currently it's always NULL, which can be inconsistent with head page and potentially lead to problems. For now I caught one case of illegal usage of page flags or ->mapping: sound subsystem allocates pages with __GFP_COMP and maps them with PTEs. It leads to setting dirty bit on tail pages and access to tail_page's ->mapping. I don't see any bad behaviour caused by this, but worth fixing anyway. This patchset makes more sense if you take my THP refcounting into account: we will see more compound pages mapped with PTEs and we need to define behaviour of flags on compound pages to avoid bugs.

From Floria Fainelli. 3) Allow 'ip address' commands to initiate multicast group join/leave, from Madhu Challa. 4) Many ipv4 FIB lookup optimizations from Alexander Duyck. 5) Support EBPF in cls_bpf classifier and act_bpf action, from Daniel Borkmann. 6) Remove the ugly compat support in ARP for ugly layers like ax25, rose, etc. And use this to clean up the neigh layer, then use it to implement MPLS support. All from Eric Biederman. 7) Support L3 forwarding offloading in switches, from Scott Feldman. 8) Collapse the LOCAL and MAIN ipv4 FIB tables when possible, to speed up route lookups even further. From Alexander Duyck. 9) Many improvements and bug fixes to the rhashtable implementation, from Herbert Xu and Thomas Graf. In particular, in the case where an rhashtable user bulk adds a large number of items into an empty table, we expand the table much more sanely. 10) Don't make the tcp_metrics hash table per-namespace, from Eric Biederman. 11) Extend EBPF to access SKB fields, from Alexei Starovoitov. 12) Split out new connection request sockets so that they can be established in the main hash table. Much less false sharing since hash lookups go direct to the request sockets instead of having to go first to the listener then to the request socks hashed underneath. From Eric Dumazet. 13) Add async I/O support for crytpo AF_ALG sockets, from Tadeusz Struk. 14) Support stable privacy address generation for RFC7217 in IPV6. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. 15) Hash network namespace into IP frag IDs, also from Hannes Frederic Sowa. 16) Convert PTP get/set methods to use 64-bit time, from Richard Cochran. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (1816 commits) fm10k: Bump driver version to 0.15.2 fm10k: corrected VF multicast update fm10k: mbx_update_max_size does not drop all oversized messages fm10k: reset head instead of calling update_max_size fm10k: renamed mbx_tx_dropped to mbx_tx_oversized fm10k: update xcast mode before synchronizing multicast addresses fm10k: start service timer on probe fm10k: fix function header comment fm10k: comment next_vf_mbx flow fm10k: don't handle mailbox events in iov_event path and always process mailbox fm10k: use separate workqueue for fm10k driver fm10k: Set PF queues to unlimited bandwidth during virtualization fm10k: expose tx_timeout_count as an ethtool stat fm10k: only increment tx_timeout_count in Tx hang path fm10k: remove extraneous "Reset interface" message fm10k: separate PF only stats so that VF does not display them fm10k: use hw->mac.max_queues for stats fm10k: only show actual queues, not the maximum in hardware fm10k: allow creation of VLAN on default vid fm10k: fix unused warnings ... | 15 April 2015, 16:00:47 UTC |

Fixes: - An integer overflow in the calculation of ELF_ET_DYN_BASE. - Avoiding OOMs for high-order IOMMU allocations - SMP requires the data cache to be enabled for synchronisation primitives to work, so prevent the CPU_DCACHE_DISABLE option being visible on SMP builds. - A bug going back 10+ years in the noMMU ARM94* CPU support code, where it corrupts registers. Found by folk getting Linux running on their cameras. - Versatile Express needs an errata workaround enabled for CPU hot-unplug to work. Features: - Clean up module linker by handling out of range relocations separately from relocation cases we don't handle. - Fix a long term bug in the pci_mmap_page_range() code, which we hope won't impact userspace (we hope there's no users of the existing broken interface.) - Don't map DMA coherent allocations when we don't have a MMU. - Drop experimental status for SMP_ON_UP. - Warn when DT doesn't specify ePAPR mandatory cache properties. - Add documentation concerning how we find the start of physical memory for AUTO_ZRELADDR kernels, detailing why we have chosen the mask and the implications of changing it. - Updates from Ard Biesheuvel to address some issues with large kernels (such as allyesconfig) failing to link. - Allow hibernation to work on modern (ARMv7) CPUs - this appears to have never worked in the past on these CPUs. - Enable IRQ_SHOW_LEVEL, which changes the /proc/interrupts output format (hopefully without userspace breaking... let's hope that if it causes someone a problem, they tell us.) - Fix tegra-ahb DT offsets. - Rework ARM errata 643719 code (and ARMv7 flush_cache_louis()/ flush_dcache_all()) code to be more efficient, and enable this errata workaround by default for ARMv7+SMP CPUs. This complements the Versatile Express fix above. - Rework ARMv7 context code for errata 430973, so that only Cortex A8 CPUs are impacted by the branch target buffer flush when this errata is enabled. Also update the help text to indicate that all r1p* A8 CPUs are impacted. - Switch ARM to the generic show_mem() implementation, it conveys all the information which we were already reporting. - Prevent slow timer sources being used for udelay() - timers running at less than 1MHz are not useful for this, and can cause udelay() to return immediately, without any wait. Using such a slow timer is silly. - VDSO support for 32-bit ARM, mainly for gettimeofday() using the ARM architected timer. - Perf support for Scorpion performance monitoring units" vdso semantic conflict fixed up as per linux-next. * 'for-linus' of git://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm: (52 commits) ARM: update errata 430973 documentation to cover Cortex A8 r1p* ARM: ensure delay timer has sufficient accuracy for delays ARM: switch to use the generic show_mem() implementation ARM: proc-v7: avoid errata 430973 workaround for non-Cortex A8 CPUs ARM: enable ARM errata 643719 workaround by default ARM: cache-v7: optimise test for Cortex A9 r0pX devices ARM: cache-v7: optimise branches in v7_flush_cache_louis ARM: cache-v7: consolidate initialisation of cache level index ARM: cache-v7: shift CLIDR to extract appropriate field before masking ARM: cache-v7: use movw/movt instructions ARM: allow 16-bit instructions in ALT_UP() ARM: proc-arm94*.S: fix setup function ARM: vexpress: fix CPU hotplug with CT9x4 tile.

Fixed transmit statistics which was actually using values from the receive ring, instead of the transmit ring. Fixed up spelling mistakes in code comments and resolved unused argument warnings. Added support for netconsole. Fixed up statistic reporting so that we are only reporting from actual queues as well as display PF only stats for just the PF and not the VF. Also fixed an issue that when returning virtualization queues from the VF back to the PF, we were retaining the VF rate limiter. Fixed up the driver to use a separate workqueue, which helps reduce and stabilize latency between scheduling the work in our interrupt and actually performing the work. Fixed a bug where the VF tried to set a multicast address before requesting the required xcast mode. Fix VF multicast update since VFs were being improperly added to the switch's mutlicast group. The error stems from the fact that incorrect arguments were passed to the update_mc_addr(). Thanks to Alex Duyck for the extensive review. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

| 4a20799 | Vladimir Murzin | 14 April 2015, 22:48:27 UTC | mm: move memtest under mm Memtest is a simple feature which fills the memory with a given set of patterns and validates memory contents, if bad memory regions is detected it reserves them via memblock API. Since memblock API is widely used by other architectures this feature can be enabled outside of x86 world. This patch set promotes memtest to live under generic mm umbrella and enables memtest feature for arm/arm64. It was reported that this patch set was useful for tracking down an issue with some errant DMA on an arm64 platform. This patch (of 6): There is nothing platform dependent in the core memtest code, so other platforms might benefit from this feature too.

| 0205796 | David Rientjes | 14 April 2015, 22:48:24 UTC | mm, hugetlb: abort __get_user_pages if current has been oom killed If __get_user_pages() is faulting a significant number of hugetlb pages, usually as the result of mmap(MAP_LOCKED), it can potentially allocate a very large amount of memory. If the process has been oom killed, this will cause a lot of memory to potentially deplete memory reserves. In the same way that commit 4779280d1ea4 ("mm: make get_user_pages() interruptible") aborted for pending SIGKILLs when faulting non-hugetlb memory, based on the premise of commit 462e00cc7151 ("oom: stop allocating user memory if TIF_MEMDIE is set"), hugetlb page faults now terminate when the process has been oom killed.
