* shmem: fix init_page_accessed use to stop !PageLRU bugHugh Dickins2014-07-031-5/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Under shmem swapping load, I sometimes hit the VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageLRU) in isolate_lru_pages() at mm/vmscan.c:1281! Commit 2457aec63745 ("mm: non-atomically mark page accessed during page cache allocation where possible") looks like interrupted work-in-progress. mm/filemap.c's call to init_page_accessed() is fine, but not mm/shmem.c's - shmem_write_begin() is clearly wrong to use it after shmem_getpage(), when the page is always visible in radix_tree, and often already on LRU. Revert change to shmem_write_begin(), and use init_page_accessed() or mark_page_accessed() appropriately for SGP_WRITE in shmem_getpage_gfp(). SGP_WRITE also covers shmem_symlink(), which did not mark_page_accessed() before; but since many other filesystems use [__]page_symlink(), which did and does mark the page accessed, consider this as rectifying an oversight.

* hwpoison: fix the handling path of the victimized page frame that belong to ↵Chen Yucong2014-07-031-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | non-LRU Until now, the kernel has the same policy to handle victimized page frames that belong to kernel-space(reserved/slab-subsystem) or non-LRU(unknown page state). In other word, the result of handling either of these victimized page frames is (IGNORED | FAILED), and the return value of memory_failure() is -EBUSY. This patch is to avoid that memory_failure() returns very soon due to the "true" value of (!PageLRU(p)), and it also ensures that action_result() can report more precise information("reserved kernel", "kernel slab", and "unknown page state") instead of "non LRU", especially for memory errors which are detected by memory-scrubbing. Andi said: : While running the mcelog test suite on 3.14 I hit the following VM_BUG_ON: : : soft_offline: 0x56d4: unknown non LRU page type 3ffff800008000 : page:ffffea000015b400 count:3 mapcount:2097169 mapping: (null) index:0xffff8800056d7000 : page flags: 0x3ffff800004081(locked|slab|head) : ------------[ cut here ]------------ : kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:1495! : : I think what happened is that a LRU page turned into a slab page in : parallel with offlining. memory_failure initially tests for this case, : but doesn't retest later after the page has been locked. : : ... : : I ran this patch in a loop over night with some stress plus : the mcelog test suite running in a loop.

* slub: fix off by one in number of slab testsJoonsoo Kim2014-07-031-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | min_partial means minimum number of slab cached in node partial list. So, if nr_partial is less than it, we keep newly empty slab on node partial list rather than freeing it. But if nr_partial is equal or greater than it, it means that we have enough partial slabs so should free newly empty slab. Current implementation missed the equal case so if we set min_partial is 0, then, at least one slab could be cached. This is critical problem to kmemcg destroying logic because it doesn't works properly if some slabs is cached. This patch fixes this problem. Fixes 91cb69620284 ("slub: make dead memcg caches discard free slabs immediately").

This in turn causes accesses past zone->free_list[]. Fix the problem by changing init_cma_reserved_pageblock() such that it splits pageblock into individual MAX_ORDER pages if pageblock is bigger than a MAX_ORDER page. In cases where !CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE_SIZE_VARIABLE, which is all architectures expect for ia64, powerpc and tile at the moment, the “pageblock_order > MAX_ORDER” condition will be optimised out since both sides of the operator are constants. In cases where pageblock size is variable, the performance degradation should not be significant anyway since init_cma_reserved_pageblock() is called only at boot time at most MAX_CMA_AREAS times which by default is eight.

* slab: fix oops when reading /proc/slab_allocatorsJoonsoo Kim2014-06-231-19/+71
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit b1cb0982bdd6 ("change the management method of free objects of the slab") introduced a bug on slab leak detector ('/proc/slab_allocators'). This detector works like as following decription. 1. traverse all objects on all the slabs. 2. determine whether it is active or not. 3. if active, print who allocate this object. but that commit changed the way how to manage free objects, so the logic determining whether it is active or not is also changed. In before, we regard object in cpu caches as inactive one, but, with this commit, we mistakenly regard object in cpu caches as active one. This intoduces kernel oops if DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is enabled. If DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is enabled, kernel_map_pages() is used to detect who corrupt free memory in the slab. It unmaps page table mapping if object is free and map it if object is active. When slab leak detector check object in cpu caches, it mistakenly think this object active so try to access object memory to retrieve caller of allocation. At this point, page table mapping to this object doesn't exist, so oops occurs. Following is oops message reported from Dave. It blew up when something tried to read /proc/slab_allocators (Just cat it, and you should see the oops below) Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC Modules linked in: [snip...] CPU: 1 PID: 9386 Comm: trinity-c33 Not tainted 3.14.0-rc5+ #131 task: ffff8801aa46e890 ti: ffff880076924000 task.ti: ffff880076924000 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffffaa1a8f4a>] [<ffffffffaa1a8f4a>] handle_slab+0x8a/0x180 RSP: 0018:ffff880076925de0 EFLAGS: 00010002 RAX: 0000000000001000 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 000000005ce85ce7 RDX: ffffea00079be100 RSI: 0000000000001000 RDI: ffff880107458000 RBP: ffff880076925e18 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 000000000000000f R12: ffff8801e6f84000 R13: ffffea00079be100 R14: ffff880107458000 R15: ffff88022bb8d2c0 FS: 00007fb769e45740(0000) GS:ffff88024d040000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: ffff8801e6f84ff8 CR3: 00000000a22db000 CR4: 00000000001407e0 DR0: 0000000002695000 DR1: 0000000002695000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffe0ff0 DR7: 0000000000070602 Call Trace: leaks_show+0xce/0x240 seq_read+0x28e/0x490 proc_reg_read+0x3d/0x80 vfs_read+0x9b/0x160 SyS_read+0x58/0xb0 tracesys+0xd4/0xd9 Code: f5 00 00 00 0f 1f 44 00 00 48 63 c8 44 3b 0c 8a 0f 84 e3 00 00 00 83 c0 01 44 39 c0 72 eb 41 f6 47 1a 01 0f 84 e9 00 00 00 89 f0 <4d> 8b 4c 04 f8 4d 85 c9 0f 84 88 00 00 00 49 8b 7e 08 4d 8d 46 RIP handle_slab+0x8a/0x180 To fix the problem, I introduce an object status buffer on each slab.

* shmem: fix faulting into a hole while it's punchedHugh Dickins2014-06-231-4/+52
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Trinity finds that mmap access to a hole while it's punched from shmem can prevent the madvise(MADV_REMOVE) or fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE) from completing, until the reader chooses to stop; with the puncher's hold on i_mutex locking out all other writers until it can complete. It appears that the tmpfs fault path is too light in comparison with its hole-punching path, lacking an i_data_sem to obstruct it; but we don't want to slow down the common case. Extend shmem_fallocate()'s existing range notification mechanism, so shmem_fault() can refrain from faulting pages into the hole while it's punched, waiting instead on i_mutex (when safe to sleep; or repeatedly faulting when not).

But they do use a pmdp_clear_flush(), set_pmd_at() sequence which, for an instant (indeed, for a long instant, given the inter-CPU TLB flush in there), leaves *pmd neither present not trans_huge. Which can confuse a concurrent rmap walk, as when removing migration ptes, seen in the dumped trace. Although that rmap walk has a 4k page to insert, anon_vmas containing THPs are in no way segregated from 4k-page anon_vmas, so the 4k-intent mm_find_pmd() does need to cope with that instant when a trans_huge pmd is temporarily absent. I don't think we need strengthen the locking at the THP end: it's easily handled with an ACCESS_ONCE() before testing both conditions. And since mm_find_pmd() had only one caller who wanted a THP rather than a pmd, let's slightly repurpose it to fail when it hits a THP or non-present pmd, and open code split_huge_page_address() again.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Trinity has for over a year been reporting a CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC oops in copy_page_rep() called from copy_user_huge_page() called from do_huge_pmd_wp_page(). I believe this is a DEBUG_PAGEALLOC false positive, due to the source page being split, and a tail page freed, while copy is in progress; and not a problem without DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, since the pmd_same() check will prevent a miscopy from being made visible. Fix by adding get_user_huge_page() and put_user_huge_page(): reducing to the usual get_page() and put_page() on head page in the usual config; but get and put references to all of the tail pages when DEBUG_PAGEALLOC.

If a value in the range [1, 7] is written, the sysctl will return EINVAL. This successfully solves the divide by zero issue at the same time.

* fix __swap_writepage() compile failure on old gcc versionsAl Viro2014-06-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Tetsuo Handa wrote: "Commit 62a8067a7f35 ("bio_vec-backed iov_iter") introduced an unnamed union inside a struct which gcc-4.4.7 cannot handle. Name the unnamed union as u in order to fix build failure" Let's do this instead: there is only one place in the entire tree that steps into this breakage. Anon structs and unions work in older gcc versions; as the matter of fact, we have those in the tree - see e.g. struct ieee80211_tx_info in include/net/mac80211.h What doesn't work is handling their initializers: struct { int a; union { int b; char c; }; } x[2] = {{.a = 1, .c = 'a'}, {.a = 0, .b = 1}}; is the obvious syntax for initializer, perfectly fine for C11 and handled correctly by gcc-4.7 or later. Earlier versions, though, break on it - declaration is fine and so's access to fields (i.e. x[0].c = 'a'; would produce the right code), but members of the anon structs and unions are not inserted into the right namespace. Tellingly, those older versions will not barf on struct {int a; struct {int a;};}; - looks like they just have it hacked up somewhere around the handling of . and -> instead of doing the right thing. The easiest way to deal with that crap is to turn initialization of those fields (in the only place where we have such initializer of iov_iter) into plain assignment.

Heavy restructuring including locking simplification took place to improve the code base and enable implementation of the unified hierarchy, which currently exists behind a __DEVEL__ mount option. The core support is mostly complete but individual controllers need further work. To explain the design and rationales of the the unified hierarchy Documentation/cgroups/unified-hierarchy.txt is added. Another notable change is css (cgroup_subsys_state - what each controller uses to identify and interact with a cgroup) iteration update. This is part of continuing updates on css object lifetime and visibility. cgroup started with reference count draining on removal way back and is now reaching a point where csses behave and are iterated like normal refcnted objects albeit with some complexities to allow distinguishing the state where they're being deleted.

| * | | memcg: update memcg_has_children() to use css_next_child()Tejun Heo2014-05-161-10/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, memcg_has_children() and mem_cgroup_hierarchy_write() directly test cgroup->children for list emptiness. It's semantically correct in traditional hierarchies as it actually wants to test for any children dead or alive; however, cgroup->children is not a published field and scheduled to go away. This patch moves out .use_hierarchy test out of memcg_has_children() and updates it to use css_next_child() to test whether there exists any children. With .use_hierarchy test moved out, it can also be used by mem_cgroup_hierarchy_write(). A side note: As .use_hierarchy is going away, it doesn't really matter but I'm not sure about how it's used in __memcg_activate_kmem(). The condition tested by memcg_has_children() is mushy when seen from userland as its result is affected by dead csses which aren't visible from userland. I think the rule would be a lot clearer if we have a dedicated "freshly minted" flag which gets cleared when the first task is migrated into it or the first child is created and then gate activation with that. v2: Added comment noting that testing use_hierarchy is the responsibility of the callers of memcg_has_children() as suggested by Michal Hocko.

A new task would break mem_cgroup_reparent_charges expectation that all failures as described by mem_cgroup_force_empty_list are temporal and there is no way out. The main use case for the knob as described by Documentation/cgroups/memory.txt is to: " The typical use case for this interface is before calling rmdir(). Because rmdir() moves all pages to parent, some out-of-use page caches can be moved to the parent. If you want to avoid that, force_empty will be useful. " This means that reparenting is not really required as rmdir will reparent pages implicitly from the safe context. If we remove it from mem_cgroup_force_empty then we are safe even with existing tasks because the number of reclaim attempts is bounded. Moreover the knob still does what the documentation claims (modulo reparenting which doesn't make any difference) and users might expect. Longterm we want to deprecate the whole knob and put the reparented pages to the tail of parent LRU during cgroup removal. tj: Removed unused variable @cgrp from mem_cgroup_force_empty() Signed-off-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

Let's rename the existing trygets so that they clearly indicate that they're onliness. I thought about keeping the existing names as-are and introducing new names for the planned actual tryget; however, given that each controller participates in the synchronization of the online state, it seems worthwhile to make it explicit that these functions are about on/offline state. Rename css_tryget() to css_tryget_online() and css_tryget_from_dir() to css_tryget_online_from_dir(). This is pure rename. v2: cgroup_freezer grew new usages of css_tryget(). Update accordingly.

This patch adds css->id which is a subsystem-unique ID and converts css_from_id() to look up by the new css->id instead. memcg is the only user of css_from_id() and also converted to use css->id instead. For traditional hierarchies, this shouldn't make any functional difference.

That makes no real sense, and apparently causes major interactivity issues under some loads since 3.11. The ostensible reason for it was to wait for kswapd to start writing pages, but that seems questionable as well, since the congestion wait code seems to trigger for kswapd itself as well. Also, the logic behind delaying anything when we haven't actually started writeback is not clear - it only delays actually starting that writeback. We'll still trigger the congestion waiting if (a) the process is kswapd, and we hit pages flagged for immediate reclaim (b) the process is not kswapd, and the zone backing dev writeback is actually congested. This probably needs to be revisited, but as it is this fixes a reported regression.

Later we check for this tag in write_cache_pages_da and creates a struct mpage_da_data containing contiguously indexed pages tagged with this tag and sync these pages with a call to mpage_da_map_and_submit. This process is done in while loop until all the PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE pages are synced. We also do journal start and stop in each iteration. journal_stop could initiate journal commit which would call ext4_writepage which in turn will call ext4_bio_write_page even for delayed OR unwritten buffers. When ext4_bio_write_page is called for such buffers, even though it does not sync them but it clears the PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE of the corresponding page and hence these pages are also not synced by the currently running data integrity sync. We will end up with dirty pages although sync is completed. This could cause a potential data loss when the sync call is followed by a truncate_pagecache call, which is exactly the case in collapse_range. (It will cause generic/127 failure in xfstests) To avoid this issue, we can use set_page_writeback_keepwrite instead of set_page_writeback, which doesn't clear TOWRITE tag.
