d54ad83 lcd: add callbacks for early fb event blank support This patchset adds early fb blank feature that a callback of lcd panel driver is called prior to specific fb driver's one. In the case of MIPI-DSI based video mode LCD Panel, for lcd power off, the power off commands should be transferred to lcd panel with display and mipi-dsi controller enabled because the commands is set to lcd panel at vsync porch period. and in opposite case, the callback of fb driver should be called prior to lcd panel driver's one because of same issue. Also if fb_blank mode is changed to FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN then display controller would be off(clock disable) but lcd panel would be still on. at this time, you could see some issue like sparkling on lcd panel because video clock to be delivered to ldi module of lcd panel was disabled. this issue could occurs for all lcd panels. The callback order is as the following: at fb_blank function of fbmem.c -> fb_notifier_call_chain(FB_EARLY_EVENT_BLANK) -> lcd panel driver's early_set_power() -> info->fbops->fb_blank() -> spcefic fb driver's fb_blank() -> fb_notifier_call_chain(FB_EVENT_BLANK) -> lcd panel driver's set_power() -> fb_notifier_call_chain(FB_R_EARLY_EVENT_BLANK) if info->fops->fb_blank() was failed. fb_notifier_call_chain(FB_R_EARLY_EVENT_BLANK) would be called to revert the effects of previous FB_EARLY_EVENT_BLANK call. and note that if early_set_power() of lcd_ops is NULL then early fb blank callback would be ignored. This patch: Add early_set_power and r_early_set_power callbacks. early_set_power callback is called prior to fb_blank() of fbmem.c and r_early_set_power callback is called if fb_blank() was failed to revert the effects of the early_set_power call of lcd panel driver.

3f13461 memcg: decrement static keys at real destroy time We call the destroy function when a cgroup starts to be removed, such as by a rmdir event. However, because of our reference counters, some objects are still inflight. Right now, we are decrementing the static_keys at destroy() time, meaning that if we get rid of the last static_key reference, some objects will still have charges, but the code to properly uncharge them won't be run. This becomes a problem specially if it is ever enabled again, because now new charges will be added to the staled charges making keeping it pretty much impossible. We just need to be careful with the static branch activation: since there is no particular preferred order of their activation, we need to make sure that we only start using it after all call sites are active. This is achieved by having a per-memcg flag that is only updated after static_key_slow_inc() returns. At this time, we are sure all sites are active. This is made per-memcg, not global, for a reason: it also has the effect of making socket accounting more consistent. The first memcg to be limited will trigger static_key() activation, therefore, accounting. But all the others will then be accounted no matter what. After this patch, only limited memcgs will have its sockets accounted.

3afe36b memcg: always free struct memcg through schedule_work() Right now we free struct memcg with kfree right after a rcu grace period, but defer it if we need to use vfree() to get rid of that memory area. We do that by need, because we need vfree to be called in a process context. This patch unifies this behavior, by ensuring that even kfree will happen in a separate thread. The goal is to have a stable place to call the upcoming jump label destruction function outside the realm of the complicated and quite far-reaching cgroup lock (that can't be held when holding either the cpu_hotplug.lock or jump_label_mutex) [akpm@linux-foundation.org: tweak comment] Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa <glommer@parallels.com> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com> Acked-by: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Cc: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 29 May 2012, 23:22:28 UTC
fa9add6 mm/memcg: apply add/del_page to lruvec Take lruvec further: pass it instead of zone to add_page_to_lru_list() and del_page_from_lru_list(); and pagevec_lru_move_fn() pass lruvec down to its target functions. This cleanup eliminates a swathe of cruft in memcontrol.c, including mem_cgroup_lru_add_list(), mem_cgroup_lru_del_list() and mem_cgroup_lru_move_lists() - which never actually touched the lists. In their place, mem_cgroup_page_lruvec() to decide the lruvec, previously a side-effect of add, and mem_cgroup_update_lru_size() to maintain the lru_size stats. Whilst these are simplifications in their own right, the goal is to bring the evaluation of lruvec next to the spin_locking of the lrus, in preparation for a future patch.

cc926f7 memcg: move charges to root cgroup if use_hierarchy=0 Presently, at removal of cgroup, ->pre_destroy() is called and moves charges to the parent cgroup. A major reason for returning -EBUSY from ->pre_destroy() is that the 'moving' hits the parent's resource limitation. It happens only when use_hierarchy=0. Considering use_hierarchy=0, all cgroups should be flat. So, no one cannot justify moving charges to parent...parent and children are in flat configuration, not hierarchical. This patch modifes the code to move charges to the root cgroup at rmdir/force_empty if use_hierarchy==0. This will much simplify rmdir() and reduce error in ->pre_destroy.

4b91355 memcg: fix/change behavior of shared anon at moving task This patch changes memcg's behavior at task_move(). At task_move(), the kernel scans a task's page table and move the changes for mapped pages from source cgroup to target cgroup. There has been a bug at handling shared anonymous pages for a long time. Before patch: - The spec says 'shared anonymous pages are not moved.' - The implementation was 'shared anonymoys pages may be moved'. If page_mapcount <=2, shared anonymous pages's charge were moved. After patch: - The spec says 'all anonymous pages are moved'. - The implementation is 'all anonymous pages are moved'. Considering usage of memcg, this will not affect user's experience. 'shared anonymous' pages only exists between a tree of processes which don't do exec(). Moving one of process without exec() seems not sane. For example, libcgroup will not be affected by this change. (Anyway, no one noticed the implementation for a long time...) Below is a discussion log: - current spec/implementation are complex - Now, shared file caches are moved - It adds unclear check as page_mapcount(). To do correct check, we should check swap users, etc. - No one notice this implementation behavior. So, no one get benefit from the design. - In general, once task is moved to a cgroup for running, it will not be moved.... - Finally, we have control knob as memory.move_charge_at_immigrate. Here is a patch to allow moving shared pages, completely. This makes memcg simpler and fix current broken code.

181eb39 mm/memblock: fix memory leak on extending regions The overall memblock has been organized into the memory regions and reserved regions. Initially, the memory regions and reserved regions are stored in the predetermined arrays of "struct memblock _region". It's possible for the arrays to be enlarged when we have newly added regions, but no free space left there. The policy here is to create double-sized array either by slab allocator or memblock allocator. Unfortunately, we didn't free the old array, which might be allocated through slab allocator before. That would cause memory leak. The patch introduces 2 variables to trace where (slab or memblock) the memory and reserved regions come from. The memory for the memory or reserved regions will be deallocated by kfree() if that was allocated by slab allocator. Thus to fix the memory leak issue.

4e2f077 mm/memblock: cleanup on duplicate VA/PA conversion The overall memblock has been organized into the memory regions and reserved regions. Initially, the memory regions and reserved regions are stored in the predetermined arrays of "struct memblock _region". It's possible for the arrays to be enlarged when we have newly added regions for them, but no enough space there. Under the situation, We will created double-sized array to meet the requirement. However, the original implementation converted the VA (Virtual Address) of the newly allocated array of regions to PA (Physical Address), then translate back when we allocates the new array from slab. That's actually unnecessary. The patch removes the duplicate VA/PA conversion.

5bf5f03 mm: fix slab->page flags corruption Transparent huge pages can change page->flags (PG_compound_lock) without taking Slab lock. Since THP can not break slab pages we can safely access compound page without taking compound lock. Specifically this patch fixes a race between compound_unlock() and slab functions which perform page-flags updates. This can occur when get_page()/put_page() is called on a page from slab.

dbda591 mm: fix faulty initialization in vmalloc_init() The transfer of ->flags causes some of the static mapping virtual addresses to be prematurely freed (before the mapping is removed) because VM_LAZY_FREE gets "set" if tmp->flags has VM_IOREMAP set. This might cause subsequent vmalloc/ioremap calls to fail because it might allocate one of the freed virtual address ranges that aren't unmapped. va->flags has different types of flags from tmp->flags.

Only archs with 64bit large pmd_t and 32bit unsigned long should be affected. With THP enabled the barrier() in pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() would partly hide the bug when the pmd transition from none to stable, by forcing a re-read of the *pmd in pmd_offset_map_lock, but when THP is enabled a new set of problem arises by the fact could then transition freely in any of the none, pmd_trans_huge or pmd_trans_stable states. So making the barrier in pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() unconditional isn't good idea and it would be a flakey solution. This should be fully fixed by introducing a pmd_read_atomic that reads the pmd in order with THP disabled, or by reading the pmd atomically with cmpxchg8b with THP enabled. Luckily this new race condition only triggers in the places that must already be covered by pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() so the fix is localized there but this bug is not related to THP. NOTE: this can trigger on x86 32bit systems with PAE enabled with more than 4G of ram, otherwise the high part of the pmd will never risk to be truncated because it would be zero at all times, in turn so hiding the SMP race.

a7f638f mm, oom: normalize oom scores to oom_score_adj scale only for userspace The oom_score_adj scale ranges from -1000 to 1000 and represents the proportion of memory available to the process at allocation time. This means an oom_score_adj value of 300, for example, will bias a process as though it was using an extra 30.0% of available memory and a value of -350 will discount 35.0% of available memory from its usage. The oom killer badness heuristic also uses this scale to report the oom score for each eligible process in determining the "best" process to kill. Thus, it can only differentiate each process's memory usage by 0.1% of system RAM. On large systems, this can end up being a large amount of memory: 256MB on 256GB systems, for example. This can be fixed by having the badness heuristic to use the actual memory usage in scoring threads and then normalizing it to the oom_score_adj scale for userspace. This results in better comparison between eligible threads for kill and no change from the userspace perspective.

fe35004 mm: avoid swapping out with swappiness==0 Sometimes we'd like to avoid swapping out anonymous memory. In particular, avoid swapping out pages of important process or process groups while there is a reasonable amount of pagecache on RAM so that we can satisfy our customers' requirements. OTOH, we can control how aggressive the kernel will swap memory pages with /proc/sys/vm/swappiness for global and /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/memory.swappiness for each memcg. But with current reclaim implementation, the kernel may swap out even if we set swappiness=0 and there is pagecache in RAM. This patch changes the behavior with swappiness==0. If we set swappiness==0, the kernel does not swap out completely (for global reclaim until the amount of free pages and filebacked pages in a zone has been reduced to something very very small (nr_free + nr_filebacked < high watermark)).

c50ac05 hugetlb: fix resv_map leak in error path When called for anonymous (non-shared) mappings, hugetlb_reserve_pages() does a resv_map_alloc(). It depends on code in hugetlbfs's vm_ops->close() to release that allocation. However, in the mmap() failure path, we do a plain unmap_region() without the remove_vma() which actually calls vm_ops->close(). This is a decent fix. This leak could get reintroduced if new code (say, after hugetlb_reserve_pages() in hugetlbfs_file_mmap()) decides to return an error. But, I think it would have to unroll the reservation anyway.

e489827 mm: consider all swapped back pages in used-once logic Commit 645747462435 ("vmscan: detect mapped file pages used only once") made mapped pages have another round in inactive list because they might be just short lived and so we could consider them again next time. This heuristic helps to reduce pressure on the active list with a streaming IO worklods. This patch fixes a regression introduced by this commit for heavy shmem based workloads because unlike Anon pages, which are excluded from this heuristic because they are usually long lived, shmem pages are handled as a regular page cache. This doesn't work quite well, unfortunately, if the workload is mostly backed by shmem (in memory database sitting on 80% of memory) with a streaming IO in the background (backup - up to 20% of memory). Anon inactive list is full of (dirty) shmem pages when watermarks are hit. Shmem pages are kept in the inactive list (they are referenced) in the first round and it is hard to reclaim anything else so we reach lower scanning priorities very quickly which leads to an excessive swap out. Let's fix this by excluding all swap backed pages (they tend to be long lived wrt. the regular page cache anyway) from used-once heuristic and rather activate them if they are referenced. The customer's workload is shmem backed database (80% of RAM) and they are measuring transactions/s with an IO in the background (20%). Transactions touch more or less random rows in the table. The transaction rate fell by a factor of 3 (in the worst case) because of commit 64574746. This patch restores the previous numbers.

1aac140 tmpfs: quit when fallocate fills memory As it stands, a large fallocate() on tmpfs is liable to fill memory with pages, freed on failure except when they run into swap, at which point they become fixed into the file despite the failure. That feels quite wrong, to be consuming resources precisely when they're in short supply. Go the other way instead: shmem_fallocate() indicate the range it has fallocated to shmem_writepage(), keeping count of pages it's allocating; shmem_writepage() reactivate instead of swapping out pages fallocated by this syscall (but happily swap out those from earlier occasions), keeping count; shmem_fallocate() compare counts and give up once the reactivated pages have started to coming back to writepage (approximately: some zones would in fact recycle faster than others). This is a little unusual, but works well: although we could consider the failure to swap as a bug, and fix it later with SWAP_MAP_FALLOC handling added in swapfile.c and memcontrol.c, I doubt that we shall ever want to. (If there's no swap, an over-large fallocate() on tmpfs is limited in the same way as writing: stopped by rlimit, or by tmpfs mount size if that was set sensibly, or by __vm_enough_memory() heuristics if OVERCOMMIT_GUESS or OVERCOMMIT_NEVER. If OVERCOMMIT_ALWAYS, then it is liable to OOM-kill others as writing would, but stops and frees if interrupted.) Now that everything is freed on failure, we can then skip updating ctime.

1635f6a tmpfs: undo fallocation on failure In the previous episode, we left the already-fallocated pages attached to the file when shmem_fallocate() fails part way through. Now try to do better, by extending the earlier optimization of !Uptodate pages (then always under page lock) to !Uptodate pages (outside of page lock), representing fallocated pages. And don't waste time clearing them at the time of fallocate(), leave that until later if necessary. Adapt shmem_truncate_range() to shmem_undo_range(), so that a failing fallocate can recognize and remove precisely those !Uptodate allocations which it added (and were not independently allocated by racing tasks). But unless we start playing with swapfile.c and memcontrol.c too, once one of our fallocated pages reaches shmem_writepage(), we do then have to instantiate it as an ordinarily allocated page, before swapping out. This is unsatisfactory, but improved in the next episode.

e2d12e2 tmpfs: support fallocate preallocation The systemd plumbers expressed a wish that tmpfs support preallocation. Cong Wang wrote a patch, but several kernel guys expressed scepticism: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/11/18/137 Christoph Hellwig: What for exactly? Please explain why preallocating on tmpfs would make any sense. Kay Sievers: To be able to safely use mmap(), regarding SIGBUS, on files on the /dev/shm filesystem. The glibc fallback loop for -ENOSYS [or -EOPNOTSUPP] on fallocate is just ugly. Hugh Dickins: If tmpfs is going to support fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE), it would seem perverse to permit the deallocation but fail the allocation. Christoph Hellwig: Agreed. Now that we do have shmem_fallocate() for hole-punching, plumb in basic support for preallocation mode too. It's fairly straightforward (though quite a few details needed attention), except for when it fails part way through. What a pity that fallocate(2) was not specified to return the length allocated, permitting short fallocations! As it is, when it fails part way through, we ought to free what has just been allocated by this system call; but must be very sure not to free any allocated earlier, or any allocated by racing accesses (not all excluded by i_mutex). But we cannot distinguish them: so in this patch simply leak allocations on partial failure (they will be freed later if the file is removed). An attractive alternative approach would have been for fallocate() not to allocate pages at all, but note reservations by entries in the radix-tree. But that would give less assurance, and, critically, would be hard to fit with mem cgroups (who owns the reservations?): allocating pages lets fallocate() behave in just the same way as write().

83e4fa9 tmpfs: support fallocate FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE tmpfs has supported hole-punching since 2.6.16, via madvise(,,MADV_REMOVE). But nowadays fallocate(,FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE|FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE,,) is the agreed way to punch holes. So add shmem_fallocate() to support that, and tweak shmem_truncate_range() to support partial pages at both the beginning and end of range (never needed for madvise, which demands rounded addr and rounds up length).

ec9516f tmpfs: optimize clearing when writing Nick proposed years ago that tmpfs should avoid clearing its pages where write will overwrite them with new data, as ramfs has long done. But I messed it up and just got bad data. Tried again recently, it works fine. Here's time output for writing 4GiB 16 times on this Core i5 laptop: before: real 0m21.169s user 0m0.028s sys 0m21.057s real 0m21.382s user 0m0.016s sys 0m21.289s real 0m21.311s user 0m0.020s sys 0m21.217s after: real 0m18.273s user 0m0.032s sys 0m18.165s real 0m18.354s user 0m0.020s sys 0m18.265s real 0m18.440s user 0m0.032s sys 0m18.337s ramfs: real 0m16.860s user 0m0.028s sys 0m16.765s real 0m17.382s user 0m0.040s sys 0m17.273s real 0m17.133s user 0m0.044s sys 0m17.021s Yes, I have done perf reports, but they need more explanation than they deserve: in summary, clear_page vanishes, its cache loading shifts into copy_user_generic_unrolled; shmem_getpage_gfp goes down, and surprisingly mark_page_accessed goes way up - I think because they are respectively where the cache gets to be reloaded after being purged by clear or copy.

bde05d1 shmem: replace page if mapping excludes its zone The GMA500 GPU driver uses GEM shmem objects, but with a new twist: the backing RAM has to be below 4GB. Not a problem while the boards supported only 4GB: but now Intel's D2700MUD boards support 8GB, and their GMA3600 is managed by the GMA500 driver. shmem/tmpfs has never pretended to support hardware restrictions on the backing memory, but it might have appeared to do so before v3.1, and even now it works fine until a page is swapped out then back in. When read_cache_page_gfp() supplied a freshly allocated page for copy, that compensated for whatever choice might have been made by earlier swapin readahead; but swapoff was likely to destroy the illusion. We'd like to continue to support GMA500, so now add a new shmem_should_replace_page() check on the zone when about to move a page from swapcache to filecache (in swapin and swapoff cases), with shmem_replace_page() to allocate and substitute a suitable page (given gma500/gem.c's mapping_set_gfp_mask GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_DMA32). This does involve a minor extension to mem_cgroup_replace_page_cache() (the page may or may not have already been charged); and I've removed a comment and call to mem_cgroup_uncharge_cache_page(), which in fact is always a no-op while PageSwapCache. Also removed optimization of an unlikely path in shmem_getpage_gfp(), now that we need to check PageSwapCache more carefully (a racing caller might already have made the copy). And at one point shmem_unuse_inode() needs to use the hitherto private page_swapcount(), to guard against racing with inode eviction. It would make sense to extend shmem_should_replace_page(), to cover cpuset and NUMA mempolicy restrictions too, but set that aside for now: needs a cleanup of shmem mempolicy handling, and more testing, and ought to handle swap faults in do_swap_page() as well as shmem.

5ceb9ce mm: compaction: handle incorrect MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE type pageblocks When MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE pages are freed from MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE type pageblock (and some MIGRATE_MOVABLE pages are left in it) waiting until an allocation takes ownership of the block may take too long. The type of the pageblock remains unchanged so the pageblock cannot be used as a migration target during compaction. Fix it by: * Adding enum compact_mode (COMPACT_ASYNC_[MOVABLE,UNMOVABLE], and COMPACT_SYNC) and then converting sync field in struct compact_control to use it. * Adding nr_pageblocks_skipped field to struct compact_control and tracking how many destination pageblocks were of MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE type. If COMPACT_ASYNC_MOVABLE mode compaction ran fully in try_to_compact_pages() (COMPACT_COMPLETE) it implies that there is not a suitable page for allocation. In this case then check how if there were enough MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE pageblocks to try a second pass in COMPACT_ASYNC_UNMOVABLE mode. * Scanning the MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE pageblocks (during COMPACT_SYNC and COMPACT_ASYNC_UNMOVABLE compaction modes) and building a count based on finding PageBuddy pages, page_count(page) == 0 or PageLRU pages. If all pages within the MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE pageblock are in one of those three sets change the whole pageblock type to MIGRATE_MOVABLE. My particular test case (on a ARM EXYNOS4 device with 512 MiB, which means 131072 standard 4KiB pages in 'Normal' zone) is to: - allocate 120000 pages for kernel's usage - free every second page (60000 pages) of memory just allocated - allocate and use 60000 pages from user space - free remaining 60000 pages of kernel memory (now we have fragmented memory occupied mostly by user space pages) - try to allocate 100 order-9 (2048 KiB) pages for kernel's usage The results: - with compaction disabled I get 11 successful allocations - with compaction enabled - 14 successful allocations - with this patch I'm able to get all 100 successful allocations NOTE: If we can make kswapd aware of order-0 request during compaction, we can enhance kswapd with changing mode to COMPACT_ASYNC_FULL (COMPACT_ASYNC_MOVABLE + COMPACT_ASYNC_UNMOVABLE).

238305b mm: remove sparsemem allocation details from the bootmem allocator alloc_bootmem_section() derives allocation area constraints from the specified sparsemem section. This is a bit specific for a generic memory allocator like bootmem, though, so move it over to sparsemem. As __alloc_bootmem_node_nopanic() already retries failed allocations with relaxed area constraints, the fallback code in sparsemem.c can be removed and the code becomes a bit more compact overall.
