| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the removal of destructors, slab_destroy_objs no longer actually destroys any objects, making the kernel doc incorrect and the function name misleading. In keeping with the other debug functions, rename it to slab_destroy_debugcheck and drop the kernel doc.

| * | mm: Add range_cont mode for writebackAneesh Kumar K.V2008-07-111-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Filesystems like ext4 needs to start a new transaction in the writepages for block allocation. This happens with delayed allocation and there is limit to how many credits we can request from the journal layer. So we call write_cache_pages multiple times with wbc->nr_to_write set to the maximum possible value limitted by the max journal credits available. Add a new mode to writeback that enables us to handle this behaviour. In the new mode we update the wbc->range_start to point to the new offset to be written. Next call to call to write_cache_pages will start writeout from specified range_start offset. In the new mode we also limit writing to the specified wbc->range_end.

If the root user allocates too many entries, the OOM killer might start kill off all tasks. This patch adds an algorith to check the following condition: pages_requested > (freeable_memory + current_trace_buffer_pages) / 4 If the above is met then the allocation fails. The above prevents more than 1/4th of freeable memory from being used by trace buffers. To determine the freeable_memory, I made determine_dirtyable_memory in mm/page-writeback.c global. Special thanks goes to Peter Zijlstra for suggesting the above calculation.

After reading the pte, the hardware may asynchonously set the accessed or dirty bits on a pte, which would be lost when writing back the modified pte value. The existing technique to handle this race is to use ptep_get_and_clear() atomically fetch the old pte value and clear it in memory. This has the effect of marking the pte as non-present, which will prevent the hardware from updating its state. When the new value is written back, the pte will be present again, and the hardware can resume updating the access/dirty flags. When running in a virtualized environment, pagetable updates are relatively expensive, since they generally involve some trap into the hypervisor. To mitigate the cost of these updates, we tend to batch them. However, because of the atomic nature of ptep_get_and_clear(), it is inherently non-batchable. This new interface allows batching by giving the underlying implementation enough information to open a transaction between the read and write phases: ptep_modify_prot_start() returns the current pte value, and puts the pte entry into a state where either the hardware will not update the pte, or if it does, the updates will be preserved on commit. ptep_modify_prot_commit() writes back the updated pte, makes sure that any hardware updates made since ptep_modify_prot_start() are preserved. ptep_modify_prot_start() and _commit() must be exactly paired, and used while holding the appropriate pte lock. They do not protect against other software updates of the pte in any way. The current implementations of ptep_modify_prot_start and _commit are functionally unchanged from before: _start() uses ptep_get_and_clear() fetch the pte and zero the entry, preventing any hardware updates. _commit() simply writes the new pte value back knowing that the hardware has not updated the pte in the meantime.

We then trap on first write and call set_page_dirty() on the page, after which we map the page RW and continue execution. When we launder dirty pages, we call clear_page_dirty_for_io() which clears both the dirty flag, and maps the page RO again before we start writeout so that the story can repeat itself. vma_wants_writenotify() excludes VM_PFNMAP on the basis that we cannot do the regular dirty page stuff on raw PFNs and the memory isn't going anywhere anyway. The recently introduced VM_MIXEDMAP mixes both !pfn_valid() and pfn_valid() pages in a single mapping. We can't do dirty page accounting on !pfn_valid() pages as stated above, and mapping them RO causes them to be COW'ed on write, which breaks VM_SHARED semantics. Excluding VM_MIXEDMAP in vma_wants_writenotify() would mean we don't do the regular dirty page accounting for the pfn_valid() pages, which would bring back all the head-aches from inaccurate dirty page accounting. So instead, we let the !pfn_valid() pages get mapped RO, but fix them up unconditionally in the fault path.

Which is problematic, since non-NUMA only has a single node_zonelists[] entry, and trying to zero the non-existent second one just overwrote the nr_zones field instead. As kswapd uses this value to determine what reclaim work is necessary, the result is that kswapd never reclaims. This causes processes to stall frequently in low-memory situations as they always direct reclaim. This patch initialises zlcache_ptr correctly.

It contains a shortcut to avoid the COW and reuse the page if we have the sole reference on the page, however it is possible to have two racing do_wp_page()ers with one causing the other to mistakenly believe it is safe to take the shortcut when it is not. This could lead to data corruption. Process 1 and process2 each have a wp pte of the same anon page (ie. one forked the other). The page's mapcount is 2. Then they both attempt to write to it around the same time... proc1 proc2 thr1 proc2 thr2 CPU0 CPU1 CPU3 do_wp_page() do_wp_page() trylock_page() can_share_swap_page() load page mapcount (==2) reuse = 0 pte unlock copy page to new_page pte lock page_remove_rmap(page); trylock_page() can_share_swap_page() load page mapcount (==1) reuse = 1 ptep_set_access_flags (allow W) write private key into page read from page ptep_clear_flush() set_pte_at(pte of new_page) Fix this by moving the page_remove_rmap of the old page after the pte clear and flush.

The recent changes to 'follow_page()' made the FOLL_ANON logic trigger not just for whole missing page tables, but for individual pages as well, and exposed this problem. This fixes it by making the test for when FOLL_ANON is used more careful, and also makes the code easier to read and understand by moving the logic to a separate inline function.

We used to get the ZERO_PAGE when we did the "handle_mm_fault()", but since fault handling no longer uses ZERO_PAGE for new anonymous pages, we now need to handle that special case in follow_page() instead. In particular, the removal of ZERO_PAGE effectively removed the core file writing optimization where we would skip writing pages that had not been populated at all, and increased memory pressure a lot by allocating all those useless newly zeroed pages. This reinstates the optimization by making the unmapped PTE case the same as for a non-existent page table, which already did this correctly. While at it, this also fixes the XIP case for follow_page(), where the caller could not differentiate between the case of a page that simply could not be used (because it had no "struct page" associated with it) and a page that just wasn't mapped. We do that by simply returning an error pointer for pages that could not be turned into a "struct page *". The error is arbitrarily picked to be EFAULT, since that was what get_user_pages() already used for the equivalent IO-mapped page case.
