* mm: reference totalram_pages and managed_pages once per functionArun KS2018-12-281-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch series "mm: convert totalram_pages, totalhigh_pages and managed pages to atomic", v5. This series converts totalram_pages, totalhigh_pages and zone->managed_pages to atomic variables. totalram_pages, zone->managed_pages and totalhigh_pages updates are protected by managed_page_count_lock, but readers never care about it. Convert these variables to atomic to avoid readers potentially seeing a store tear. Main motivation was that managed_page_count_lock handling was complicating things. It was discussed in length here, https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/995739/#1181785 It seemes better to remove the lock and convert variables to atomic. With the change, preventing poteintial store-to-read tearing comes as a bonus. This patch (of 4): This is in preparation to a later patch which converts totalram_pages and zone->managed_pages to atomic variables. Please note that re-reading the value might lead to a different value and as such it could lead to unexpected behavior. There are no known bugs as a result of the current code but it is better to prevent from them in principle.

| * vfs: make open_with_fake_path() not contribute to nr_filesMiklos Szeredi2018-07-181-21/+48
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Stacking file operations in overlay will store an extra open file for each overlay file opened. The overhead is just that of "struct file" which is about 256bytes, because overlay already pins an extra dentry and inode when the file is open, which add up to a much larger overhead. For fear of breaking working setups, don't start accounting the extra file. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com>

* fs, mm: account filp cache to kmemcgShakeel Butt2017-11-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The allocations from filp cache can be directly triggered by userspace applications. A buggy application can consume a significant amount of unaccounted system memory. Though we have not noticed such buggy applications in our production but upon close inspection, we found that a lot of machines spend very significant amount of memory on these caches. One way to limit allocations from filp cache is to set system level limit of maximum number of open files. However this limit is shared between different users on the system and one user can hog this resource. To cater that, we can charge filp to kmemcg and set the maximum limit very high and let the memory limit of each user limit the number of files they can open and indirectly limiting their allocations from filp cache. One side effect of this change is that it will allow _sysctl() to return ENOMEM and the man page of _sysctl() does not specify that. However the man page also discourages to use _sysctl() at all.

* fs: new infrastructure for writeback error handling and reportingJeff Layton2017-07-061-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Most filesystems currently use mapping_set_error and filemap_check_errors for setting and reporting/clearing writeback errors at the mapping level. filemap_check_errors is indirectly called from most of the filemap_fdatawait_* functions and from filemap_write_and_wait*. These functions are called from all sorts of contexts to wait on writeback to finish -- e.g. mostly in fsync, but also in truncate calls, getattr, etc. The non-fsync callers are problematic. We should be reporting writeback errors during fsync, but many places spread over the tree clear out errors before they can be properly reported, or report errors at nonsensical times. If I get -EIO on a stat() call, there is no reason for me to assume that it is because some previous writeback failed. The fact that it also clears out the error such that a subsequent fsync returns 0 is a bug, and a nasty one since that's potentially silent data corruption. This patch adds a small bit of new infrastructure for setting and reporting errors during address_space writeback. While the above was my original impetus for adding this, I think it's also the case that current fsync semantics are just problematic for userland. Most applications that call fsync do so to ensure that the data they wrote has hit the backing store. In the case where there are multiple writers to the file at the same time, this is really hard to determine. The first one to call fsync will see any stored error, and the rest get back 0. The processes with open fds may not be associated with one another in any way. They could even be in different containers, so ensuring coordination between all fsync callers is not really an option. One way to remedy this would be to track what file descriptor was used to dirty the file, but that's rather cumbersome and would likely be slow. However, there is a simpler way to improve the semantics here without incurring too much overhead. This set adds an errseq_t to struct address_space, and a corresponding one is added to struct file. Writeback errors are recorded in the mapping's errseq_t, and the one in struct file is used as the "since" value. This changes the semantics of the Linux fsync implementation such that applications can now use it to determine whether there were any writeback errors since fsync(fd) was last called (or since the file was opened in the case of fsync having never been called). Note that those writeback errors may have occurred when writing data that was dirtied via an entirely different fd, but that's the case now with the current mapping_set_error/filemap_check_error infrastructure. This will at least prevent you from getting a false report of success. The new behavior is still consistent with the POSIX spec, and is more reliable for application developers. This patch just adds some basic infrastructure for doing this, and ensures that the f_wb_err "cursor" is properly set when a file is opened. Later patches will change the existing code to use this new infrastructure for reporting errors at fsync time. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

Once I log in to my X session, I start getting all kinds of strange errors from applications and see this in my dmesg: VFS: file-max limit 8192 reached The problem is that the file-max is calculated before memory is fully initialised and miscalculates how much memory the kernel is using. This patch recalculates file-max after deferred memory initialisation. Note that using memory hotplug infrastructure would not have avoided this problem as the value is not recalculated after memory hot-add. 4.1: files_stat.max_files = 6582781 4.2-rc2: files_stat.max_files = 8192 4.2-rc2 patched: files_stat.max_files = 6562467 Small differences with the patch applied and 4.1 but not enough to matter.

* | vfs: atomic f_pos accesses as per POSIXLinus Torvalds2014-03-101-0/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Our write() system call has always been atomic in the sense that you get the expected thread-safe contiguous write, but we haven't actually guaranteed that concurrent writes are serialized wrt f_pos accesses, so threads (or processes) that share a file descriptor and use "write()" concurrently would quite likely overwrite each others data. This violates POSIX.1-2008/SUSv4 Section XSI 2.9.7 that says: "2.9.7 Thread Interactions with Regular File Operations All of the following functions shall be atomic with respect to each other in the effects specified in POSIX.1-2008 when they operate on regular files or symbolic links: [...]" and one of the effects is the file position update. This unprotected file position behavior is not new behavior, and nobody has ever cared. Until now. Yongzhi Pan reported unexpected behavior to Michael Kerrisk that was due to this. This resolves the issue with a f_pos-specific lock that is taken by read/write/lseek on file descriptors that may be shared across threads or processes.

* | nfsd regression since delayed fput()Al Viro2013-10-201-2/+2
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | Background: nfsd v[23] had throughput regression since delayed fput went in; every read or write ends up doing fput() and we get a pair of extra context switches out of that (plus quite a bit of work in queue_work itselfi, apparently). Use of schedule_delayed_work() gives it a chance to accumulate a bit before we do __fput() on all of them. I'm not too happy about that solution, but... on at least one real-world setup it reverts about 10% throughput loss we got from switch to delayed fput.

* fput: task_work_add() can fail if the caller has passed exit_task_work()Oleg Nesterov2013-06-151-9/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fput() assumes that it can't be called after exit_task_work() but this is not true, for example free_ipc_ns()->shm_destroy() can do this. In this case fput() silently leaks the file. Change it to fallback to delayed_fput_work if task_work_add() fails. The patch looks complicated but it is not, it changes the code from if (PF_KTHREAD) { schedule_work(...); return; } task_work_add(...) to if (!PF_KTHREAD) { if (!task_work_add(...)) return; /* fallback */ } schedule_work(...); As for shm_destroy() in particular, we could make another fix but I think this change makes sense anyway. There could be another similar user, it is not safe to assume that task_work_add() can't fail.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allocating a file structure in function get_empty_filp() might fail because of several reasons: - not enough memory for file structures - operation is not allowed - user is over its limit Currently the function returns NULL in all cases and we loose the exact reason of the error. All callers of get_empty_filp() assume that the function can fail with ENFILE only. Return error through pointer. Change all callers to preserve this error code.
