* mm/vmstat: fix overflow in mod_zone_page_state()Heiko Carstens2015-12-291-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mod_zone_page_state() takes a "delta" integer argument. delta contains the number of pages that should be added or subtracted from a struct zone's vm_stat field. If a zone is larger than 8TB this will cause overflows. E.g. for a zone with a size slightly larger than 8TB the line mod_zone_page_state(zone, NR_ALLOC_BATCH, zone->managed_pages); in mm/page_alloc.c:free_area_init_core() will result in a negative result for the NR_ALLOC_BATCH entry within the zone's vm_stat, since 8TB contain 0x8xxxxxxx pages which will be sign extended to a negative value. Fix this by changing the delta argument to long type. This could fix an early boot problem seen on s390, where we have a 9TB system with only one node. ZONE_DMA contains 2GB and ZONE_NORMAL the rest. The system is trying to allocate a GFP_DMA page but ZONE_DMA is completely empty, so it tries to reclaim pages in an endless loop. This was seen on a heavily patched 3.10 kernel. One possible explaination seem to be the overflows caused by mod_zone_page_state(). Unfortunately I did not have the chance to verify that this patch actually fixes the problem, since I don't have access to the system right now. However the overflow problem does exist anyway. Given the description that a system with slightly less than 8TB does work, this seems to be a candidate for the observed problem.

* mm/memory_hotplug.c: check for missing sections in test_pages_in_a_zone()Andrew Banman2015-12-291-12/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | test_pages_in_a_zone() does not account for the possibility of missing sections in the given pfn range. pfn_valid_within always returns 1 when CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE is not set, allowing invalid pfns from missing sections to pass the test, leading to a kernel oops. Wrap an additional pfn loop with PAGES_PER_SECTION granularity to check for missing sections before proceeding into the zone-check code. This also prevents a crash from offlining memory devices with missing sections. Despite this, it may be a good idea to keep the related patch '[PATCH 3/3] drivers: memory: prohibit offlining of memory blocks with missing sections' because missing sections in a memory block may lead to other problems not covered by the scope of this fix.

* mm: memcontrol: fix possible memcg leak due to interrupted reclaimVladimir Davydov2015-12-291-14/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Memory cgroup reclaim can be interrupted with mem_cgroup_iter_break() once enough pages have been reclaimed, in which case, in contrast to a full round-trip over a cgroup sub-tree, the current position stored in mem_cgroup_reclaim_iter of the target cgroup does not get invalidated and so is left holding the reference to the last scanned cgroup. If the target cgroup does not get scanned again (we might have just reclaimed the last page or all processes might exit and free their memory voluntary), we will leak it, because there is nobody to put the reference held by the iterator. The problem is easy to reproduce by running the following command sequence in a loop: mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test echo 100M > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test/memory.limit_in_bytes echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test/cgroup.procs memhog 150M echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/cgroup.procs rmdir test The cgroups generated by it will never get freed. This patch fixes this issue by making mem_cgroup_iter avoid taking reference to the current position. In order not to hit use-after-free bug while running reclaim in parallel with cgroup deletion, we make use of ->css_released cgroup callback to clear references to the dying cgroup in all reclaim iterators that might refer to it. This callback is called right before scheduling rcu work which will free css, so if we access iter->position from rcu read section, we might be sure it won't go away under us.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change the use of strncmp in zswap_pool_find_get() to strcmp. The use of strncmp is no longer correct, now that zswap_zpool_type is not an array; sizeof() will return the size of a pointer, which isn't the right length to compare. We don't need to use strncmp anyway, because the existing params and the passed in params are all guaranteed to be null terminated, so strcmp should be used.

* mm/oom_kill.c: avoid attempting to kill init sharing same memoryChen Jie2015-12-121-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's possible that an oom killed victim shares an ->mm with the init process and thus oom_kill_process() would end up trying to kill init as well. This has been shown in practice: Out of memory: Kill process 9134 (init) score 3 or sacrifice child Killed process 9134 (init) total-vm:1868kB, anon-rss:84kB, file-rss:572kB Kill process 1 (init) sharing same memory ... Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x00000009 And this will result in a kernel panic. If a process is forked by init and selected for oom kill while still sharing init_mm, then it's likely this system is in a recoverable state. However, it's better not to try to kill init and allow the machine to panic due to unkillable processes.

* tmpfs: fix shmem_evict_inode() warnings on i_blocksHugh Dickins2015-12-121-20/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Dmitry Vyukov provides a little program, autogenerated by syzkaller, which races a fault on a mapping of a sparse memfd object, against truncation of that object below the fault address: run repeatedly for a few minutes, it reliably generates shmem_evict_inode()'s WARN_ON(inode->i_blocks). (But there's nothing specific to memfd here, nor to the fstat which it happened to use to generate the fault: though that looked suspicious, since a shmem_recalc_inode() had been added there recently. The same problem can be reproduced with open+unlink in place of memfd_create, and with fstatfs in place of fstat.) v3.7 commit 0f3c42f522dc ("tmpfs: change final i_blocks BUG to WARNING") explains one cause of such a warning (a race with shmem_writepage to swap), and possible solutions; but we never took it further, and this syzkaller incident turns out to have a different cause. shmem_getpage_gfp()'s error recovery, when a freshly allocated page is then found to be beyond eof, looks plausible - decrementing the alloced count that was just before incremented - but in fact can go wrong, if a racing thread (the truncator, for example) gets its shmem_recalc_inode() in just after our delete_from_page_cache(). delete_from_page_cache() decrements nrpages, that shmem_recalc_inode() will balance the books by decrementing alloced itself, then our decrement of alloced take it one too low: leading to the WARNING when the object is finally evicted. Once the new page has been exposed in the page cache, shmem_getpage_gfp() must leave it to shmem_recalc_inode() itself to get the accounting right in all cases (and not fall through from "trunc:" to "decused:"). Adjust that error recovery block; and the reinitialization of info and sbinfo can be removed too. While we're here, fix shmem_writepage() to avoid the original issue: it will be safe against a racing shmem_recalc_inode(), if it merely increments swapped before the shmem_delete_from_page_cache() which decrements nrpages (but it must then do its own shmem_recalc_inode() before that, while still in balance, instead of after). (Aside: why do we shmem_recalc_inode() here in the swap path? Because its raison d'etre is to cope with clean sparse shmem pages being reclaimed behind our back: so here when swapping is a good place to look for that case.) But I've not now managed to reproduce this bug, even without the patch. I don't see why I didn't do that earlier: perhaps inhibited by the preference to eliminate shmem_recalc_inode() altogether. Driven by this incident, I do now have a patch to do so at last; but still want to sit on it for a bit, there's a couple of questions yet to be resolved.

However, the root cause for the above memory leak resides in region_del. In this specific case, a "placeholder" entry is created in region_chg. The associated page allocation fails, and the placeholder entry is left in the reserve map. This is "by design" as the entry should be deleted when the map is released. The bug is in the region_del routine which is used to delete entries within a specific range (and when the map is released). region_del did not handle the case where a placeholder entry exactly matched the start of the range range to be deleted. In this case, the entry would not be deleted and leaked. The fix is to take these special placeholder entries into account in region_del. The region_chg error path leak is also fixed.

* mm: hugetlb: call huge_pte_alloc() only if ptep is nullNaoya Horiguchi2015-12-121-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently at the beginning of hugetlb_fault(), we call huge_pte_offset() and check whether the obtained *ptep is a migration/hwpoison entry or not. And if not, then we get to call huge_pte_alloc(). This is racy because the *ptep could turn into migration/hwpoison entry after the huge_pte_offset() check. This race results in BUG_ON in huge_pte_alloc(). We don't have to call huge_pte_alloc() when the huge_pte_offset() returns non-NULL, so let's fix this bug with moving the code into else block. Note that the *ptep could turn into a migration/hwpoison entry after this block, but that's not a problem because we have another !pte_present check later (we never go into hugetlb_no_page() in that case.)

* mm, vmstat: allow WQ concurrency to discover memory reclaim doesn't make any ↵Michal Hocko2015-12-122-5/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | progress Tetsuo Handa has reported that the system might basically livelock in OOM condition without triggering the OOM killer. The issue is caused by internal dependency of the direct reclaim on vmstat counter updates (via zone_reclaimable) which are performed from the workqueue context. If all the current workers get assigned to an allocation request, though, they will be looping inside the allocator trying to reclaim memory but zone_reclaimable can see stalled numbers so it will consider a zone reclaimable even though it has been scanned way too much. WQ concurrency logic will not consider this situation as a congested workqueue because it relies that worker would have to sleep in such a situation. This also means that it doesn't try to spawn new workers or invoke the rescuer thread if the one is assigned to the queue. In order to fix this issue we need to do two things. First we have to let wq concurrency code know that we are in trouble so we have to do a short sleep. In order to prevent from issues handled by 0e093d99763e ("writeback: do not sleep on the congestion queue if there are no congested BDIs or if significant congestion is not being encountered in the current zone") we limit the sleep only to worker threads which are the ones of the interest anyway. The second thing to do is to create a dedicated workqueue for vmstat and mark it WQ_MEM_RECLAIM to note it participates in the reclaim and to have a spare worker thread for it.

Additionally, commit 0aaa29a56e4f ("mm, page_alloc: reserve pageblocks for high-order atomic allocations on demand") introduced MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC, but did not add a letter to distinguish it into show_migration_types(), so it doesn't appear in the listing of free areas during page alloc failures or oom kills.

* memcg: fix memory.high targetVladimir Davydov2015-12-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the memory.high threshold is exceeded, try_charge() schedules a task_work to reclaim the excess. The reclaim target is set to the number of pages requested by try_charge(). This is wrong, because try_charge() usually charges more pages than requested (batch > nr_pages) in order to refill per cpu stocks. As a result, a process in a cgroup can easily exceed memory.high significantly when doing a lot of charges w/o returning to userspace (e.g. reading a file in big chunks). Fix this issue by assuring that when exceeding memory.high a process reclaims as many pages as were actually charged (i.e. batch).

* mm: hugetlb: fix hugepage memory leak caused by wrong reserve countNaoya Horiguchi2015-12-121-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When dequeue_huge_page_vma() in alloc_huge_page() fails, we fall back on alloc_buddy_huge_page() to directly create a hugepage from the buddy allocator. In that case, however, if alloc_buddy_huge_page() succeeds we don't decrement h->resv_huge_pages, which means that successful hugetlb_fault() returns without releasing the reserve count. As a result, subsequent hugetlb_fault() might fail despite that there are still free hugepages. This patch simply adds decrementing code on that code path. I reproduced this problem when testing v4.3 kernel in the following situation: - the test machine/VM is a NUMA system, - hugepage overcommiting is enabled, - most of hugepages are allocated and there's only one free hugepage which is on node 0 (for example), - another program, which calls set_mempolicy(MPOL_BIND) to bind itself to node 1, tries to allocate a hugepage, - the allocation should fail but the reserve count is still hold.

P0 (+memory) --- P1 (-memory) --- A \- B P0 has memory enabled in its subtree_control while P1 doesn't. If both A and B contain processes, they would belong to the memory css of P1. Now if memory is enabled on P1's subtree_control, memory csses should be created on both A and B and A's processes should be moved to the former and B's processes the latter. IOW, enabling controllers can cause atomic migrations into different csses. The core cgroup migration logic has been updated accordingly but the controller migration methods haven't and still assume that all tasks migrate to a single target css; furthermore, the methods were fed the css in which subtree_control was updated which is the parent of the target csses. pids controller depends on the migration methods to move charges and this made the controller attribute charges to the wrong csses often triggering the following warning by driving a counter negative.

All controllers are updated accordingly. * Controllers which don't care whether there are one or multiple target csses can be converted trivially. cpu, io, freezer, perf, netclassid and netprio fall in this category. * cpuset's current implementation assumes that there's single source and destination and thus doesn't support v2 hierarchy already. The only change made by this patchset is how that single destination css is obtained. * memory migration path already doesn't do anything on v2. How the single destination css is obtained is updated and the prep stage of mem_cgroup_can_attach() is reordered to accomodate the change. * pids is the only controller which was affected by this bug. It now correctly handles multi-destination migrations and no longer causes counter underflow from incorrect accounting.

The present version contains a bug. Vladimir Davydov noticed it contained a bug, when kernel is compiled with CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM (see commit 03ec0ed57ffc: "slub: fix kmem cgroup bug in kmem_cache_alloc_bulk"). Plus the mem cgroup counterpart in kmem_cache_free_bulk() were missing (see commit 033745189b1b "slub: add missing kmem cgroup support to kmem_cache_free_bulk").

Adjust API to return type 'int' instead of previously type 'bool'. This is done to allow future extension of the bulk alloc API. A future extension could be to allow SLUB to stop at a page boundary, when specified by a flag, and then return the number of objects. The advantage of this approach, would make it easier to make bulk alloc run without local IRQs disabled. With an approach of cmpxchg "stealing" the entire c->freelist or page->freelist. To avoid overshooting we would stop processing at a slab-page boundary. Else we always end up returning some objects at the cost of another cmpxchg. To keep compatible with future users of this API linking against an older kernel when using the new flag, we need to return the number of allocated objects with this API change.

If CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is not enabled, the compiler should be smart enough to not add any asm code. Incoming bulk free objects can belong to different kmem cgroups, and object free call can happen at a later point outside memcg context. Thus, we need to keep the orig kmem_cache, to correctly verify if a memcg object match against its "root_cache" (s->memcg_params.root_cache).

This would result in hitting the VM_BUG_ON in __memcg_kmem_get_cache. As suggested by Vladimir Davydov, change slab_post_alloc_hook() to be able to handle an array of objects. A subtle detail is, loop iterator "i" in slab_post_alloc_hook() must have same type (size_t) as size argument. This helps the compiler to easier realize that it can remove the loop, when all debug statements inside loop evaluates to nothing. Note, this is only an issue because the kernel is compiled with GCC option: -fno-strict-overflow In slab_alloc_node() the compiler inlines and optimizes the invocation of slab_post_alloc_hook(s, flags, 1, &object) by removing the loop and access object directly.

The calls slab_free (fastpath) and __slab_free (slowpath) have been extended with support for bulk free, which amortize the overhead of the (locked) cmpxchg_double. To use the new bulking feature, we build what I call a detached freelist. The detached freelist takes advantage of three properties: 1) the free function call owns the object that is about to be freed, thus writing into this memory is synchronization-free. 2) many freelist's can co-exist side-by-side in the same slab-page each with a separate head pointer. 3) it is the visibility of the head pointer that needs synchronization. Given these properties, the brilliant part is that the detached freelist can be constructed without any need for synchronization. The freelist is constructed directly in the page objects, without any synchronization needed. The detached freelist is allocated on the stack of the function call kmem_cache_free_bulk. Thus, the freelist head pointer is not visible to other CPUs. All objects in a SLUB freelist must belong to the same slab-page. Thus, constructing the detached freelist is about matching objects that belong to the same slab-page. The bulk free array is scanned is a progressive manor with a limited look-ahead facility. Kmem debug support is handled in call of slab_free(). Notice kmem_cache_free_bulk no longer need to disable IRQs. This only slowed down single free bulk with approx 3 cycles.

Tail being NULL indicate single object free of head object. This allow compiler inline constant propagation in slab_free() and slab_free_freelist_hook() to avoid adding any overhead in case of single object free. This allows a freelist with several objects (all within the same slab-page) to be free'ed using a single locked cmpxchg_double in __slab_free() and with an unlocked cmpxchg_double in slab_free(). Object debugging on the free path is also extended to handle these freelists. When CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG is enabled it will also detect if objects don't belong to the same slab-page. These changes are needed for the next patch to bulk free the detached freelists it introduces and constructs. Micro benchmarking showed no performance reduction due to this change, when debugging is turned off (compiled with CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | MADV_NOHUGEPAGE processing is too restrictive. kvm already disables hugepage but hugepage_madvise() takes the error path when we ask to turn on the MADV_NOHUGEPAGE bit and the bit is already on. This causes Qemu's new postcopy migration feature to fail on s390 because its first action is to madvise the guest address space as NOHUGEPAGE. This patch modifies the code so that the operation succeeds without error now. For consistency reasons do the same for MADV_HUGEPAGE. Signed-off-by: Jason J.

One small wrinkle on ia64 is that it allocates the node_mem_map earlier in arch code, so it skips the block of code where "offset" is initialized. Move initialization of start and offset before the check for the node_mem_map so that they will always be available in the latter part of the function.

| * mm: make compound_head() robustKirill A. Shutemov2015-11-069-54/+39

There's one example: CPU0 CPU1 isolate_migratepages_block() page_count() compound_head() !!PageTail() == true put_page() tail->first_page = NULL head = tail->first_page alloc_pages(__GFP_COMP) prep_compound_page() tail->first_page = head __SetPageTail(p); !!PageTail() == true <head == NULL dereferencing> The race is pure theoretical. I don't it's possible to trigger it in practice. But who knows. We can fix the race by changing how encode PageTail() and compound_head() within struct page to be able to update them in one shot. The patch introduces page->compound_head into third double word block in front of compound_dtor and compound_order. Bit 0 encodes PageTail() and the rest bits are pointer to head page if bit zero is set. The patch moves page->pmd_huge_pte out of word, just in case if an architecture defines pgtable_t into something what can have the bit 0 set. hugetlb_cgroup uses page->lru.next in the second tail page to store pointer struct hugetlb_cgroup. The patch switch it to use page->private in the second tail page instead. The space is free since ->first_page is removed from the union. The patch also opens possibility to remove HUGETLB_CGROUP_MIN_ORDER limitation, since there's now space in first tail page to store struct hugetlb_cgroup pointer. But that's out of scope of the patch. That means page->compound_head shares storage space with: - page->lru.next; - page->next; - page->rcu_head.next; That's too long list to be absolutely sure, but looks like nobody uses bit 0 of the word. page->rcu_head.next guaranteed[1] to have bit 0 clean as long as we use call_rcu(), call_rcu_bh(), call_rcu_sched(), or call_srcu(). But future call_rcu_lazy() is not allowed as it makes use of the bit and we can get false positive PageTail().

For compound_order, it's trivial long -> short conversion. For get_compound_page_dtor(), we now use hardcoded table for destructor lookup and store its index in the struct page instead of direct pointer to destructor. It shouldn't be a big trouble to maintain the table: we have only two destructor and NULL currently. This patch free up one word in tail pages for reuse. This is preparation for the next patch.

For zsmalloc built with no CONFIG_ZSMALLOC_STAT this results in a waste of `2 * sizeof(unsigned long)' per-class. The patch removes unneeded `struct zs_size_stat' members by redefining NR_ZS_STAT_TYPE (max stat idx in array). Since both NR_ZS_STAT_TYPE and zs_stat_type are compile time constants, GCC can eliminate zs_stat_inc()/zs_stat_dec() calls that use zs_stat_type larger than NR_ZS_STAT_TYPE: CLASS_ALMOST_EMPTY and CLASS_ALMOST_FULL at the moment. ./scripts/bloat-o-meter mm/zsmalloc.o.old mm/zsmalloc.o.new add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/3 up/down: 0/-39 (-39) function old new delta fix_fullness_group 97 94 -3 insert_zspage 100 86 -14 remove_zspage 141 119 -22 To summarize: a) each class now uses less memory b) we avoid a number of dec/inc stats (a minor optimization, but still).

| * zswap: use charp for zswap param stringsDan Streetman2015-11-061-40/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of using a fixed-length string for the zswap params, use charp. This simplifies the code and uses less memory, as most zswap param strings will be less than the current maximum length.
