The reason is we do not pass the Head to page_hstate(), and so, the call
to compound_order() in page_hstate() returns 0, so we end up checking
all hstates's size to match PAGE_SIZE.
Obviously, we do not find any hstate matching that size, and we return
NULL. Then, we dereference that NULL pointer in
hugepage_migration_supported() and we got the #PF from above.
Fix that by getting the head page before calling page_hstate().
Also, since gigantic pages span several pageblocks, re-adjust the logic
for skipping pages. While are it, we can also get rid of the
round_up().

When splitting a huge migrating PMD, we'll transfer all the existing PMD
bits and apply them again onto the small PTEs. However we are fetching
the bits unconditionally via pmd_soft_dirty(), pmd_write() or
pmd_yound() while actually they don't make sense at all when it's a
migration entry. Fix them up. Since at it, drop the ifdef together as
not needed.
Note that if my understanding is correct about the problem then if
without the patch there is chance to lose some of the dirty bits in the
migrating pmd pages (on x86_64 we're fetching bit 11 which is part of
swap offset instead of bit 2) and it could potentially corrupt the
memory of an userspace program which depends on the dirty bit.

This reverts commit 89c83fb539.
This should have been done as part of 2f0799a0ff ("mm, thp: restore
node-local hugepage allocations"). The movement of the thp allocation
policy from alloc_pages_vma() to alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask() was
intended to only set __GFP_THISNODE for mempolicies that are not
MPOL_BIND whereas the revert could set this regardless of mempolicy.
While the check for MPOL_BIND between alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask()
and alloc_pages_vma() was racy, that has since been removed since the
revert. What is left is the possibility to use __GFP_THISNODE in
policy_node() when it is unexpected because the special handling for
hugepages in alloc_pages_vma() was removed as part of the consolidation.
Secondly, prior to 89c83fb539, alloc_pages_vma() implemented a somewhat
different policy for hugepage allocations, which were allocated through
alloc_hugepage_vma(). For hugepage allocations, if the allocating
process's node is in the set of allowed nodes, allocate with
__GFP_THISNODE for that node (for MPOL_PREFERRED, use that node with
__GFP_THISNODE instead). This was changed for shmem_alloc_hugepage() to
allow fallback to other nodes in 89c83fb539 as it did for new_page() in
mm/mempolicy.c which is functionally different behavior and removes the
requirement to only allocate hugepages locally.
So this commit does a full revert of 89c83fb539 instead of the partial
revert that was done in 2f0799a0ff. The result is the same thp
allocation policy for 4.20 that was in 4.19.

This is a full revert of ac5b2c1891 ("mm: thp: relax __GFP_THISNODE for
MADV_HUGEPAGE mappings") and a partial revert of 89c83fb539 ("mm, thp:
consolidate THP gfp handling into alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask").
By not setting __GFP_THISNODE, applications can allocate remote hugepages
when the local node is fragmented or low on memory when either the thp
defrag setting is "always" or the vma has been madvised with
MADV_HUGEPAGE.
Remote access to hugepages often has much higher latency than local pages
of the native page size. On Haswell, ac5b2c1891 was shown to have a
13.9% access regression after this commit for binaries that remap their
text segment to be backed by transparent hugepages.
The intent of ac5b2c1891 is to address an issue where a local node is
low on memory or fragmented such that a hugepage cannot be allocated. In
every scenario where this was described as a fix, there is abundant and
unfragmented remote memory available to allocate from, even with a greater
access latency.
If remote memory is also low or fragmented, not setting __GFP_THISNODE was
also measured on Haswell to have a 40% regression in allocation latency.
Restore __GFP_THISNODE for thp allocations.

Internal to dax_unlock_mapping_entry(), dax_unlock_entry() is used to
store a replacement entry in the Xarray at the given xas-index with the
DAX_LOCKED bit clear. When called, dax_unlock_entry() expects the unlocked
value of the entry relative to the current Xarray state to be specified.
In most contexts dax_unlock_entry() is operating in the same scope as
the matched dax_lock_entry(). However, in the dax_unlock_mapping_entry()
case the implementation needs to recall the original entry. In the case
where the original entry is a 'pmd' entry it is possible that the pfn
performed to do the lookup is misaligned to the value retrieved in the
Xarray.
Change the api to return the unlock cookie from dax_lock_page() and pass
it to dax_unlock_page(). This fixes a bug where dax_unlock_page() was
assuming that the page was PMD-aligned if the entry was a PMD entry with

khugepaged's collapse_shmem() does almost all of its work, to assemble
the huge new_page from 512 scattered old pages, with the new_page's
refcount frozen to 0 (and refcounts of all old pages so far also frozen
to 0). Including shmem_getpage() to read in any which were out on swap,
memory reclaim if necessary to allocate their intermediate pages, and
copying over all the data from old to new.
Imagine the frozen refcount as a spinlock held, but without any lock
debugging to highlight the abuse: it's not good, and under serious load
heads into lockups - speculative getters of the page are not expecting
to spin while khugepaged is rescheduled.
One can get a little further under load by hacking around elsewhere; but
fortunately, freezing the new_page turns out to have been entirely
unnecessary, with no hacks needed elsewhere.
The huge new_page lock is already held throughout, and guards all its
subpages as they are brought one by one into the page cache tree; and
anything reading the data in that page, without the lock, before it has
been marked PageUptodate, would already be in the wrong. So simply
eliminate the freezing of the new_page.
Each of the old pages remains frozen with refcount 0 after it has been
replaced by a new_page subpage in the page cache tree, until they are
all unfrozen on success or failure: just as before. They could be
unfrozen sooner, but cause no problem once no longer visible to
find_get_entry(), filemap_map_pages() and other speculative lookups.

Several cleanups in collapse_shmem(): most of which probably do not

Huge tmpfs testing reminds us that there is no __GFP_ZERO in the gfp
flags khugepaged uses to allocate a huge page - in all common cases it
would just be a waste of effort - so collapse_shmem() must remember to
clear out any holes that it instantiates.
The obvious place to do so, where they are put into the page cache tree,
is not a good choice: because interrupts are disabled there. Leave it
until further down, once success is assured, where the other pages are
copied (before setting PageUptodate).

Huge tmpfs testing on a shortish file mapped into a pmd-rounded extent
hit shmem_evict_inode()'s WARN_ON(inode->i_blocks) followed by
clear_inode()'s BUG_ON(inode->i_data.nrpages) when the file was later
closed and unlinked.
khugepaged's collapse_shmem() was forgetting to update mapping->nrpages
on the rollback path, after it had added but then needs to undo some
holes.
There is indeed an irritating asymmetry between shmem_charge(), whose
callers want it to increment nrpages after successfully accounting
blocks, and shmem_uncharge(), when __delete_from_page_cache() already
decremented nrpages itself: oh well, just add a comment on that to them
both.
And shmem_recalc_inode() is supposed to be called when the accounting is
expected to be in balance (so it can deduce from imbalance that reclaim
discarded some pages): so change shmem_charge() to update nrpages
earlier (though it's rare for the difference to matter at all).

Huge tmpfs testing, on 32-bit kernel with lockdep enabled, showed that
__split_huge_page() was using i_size_read() while holding the irq-safe

irq-unsafe seqlock which should not be nested inside them.
Instead, read the i_size earlier in split_huge_page_to_list(), and pass
the end offset down to __split_huge_page(): all while holding head page
lock, which is enough to prevent truncation of that extent before the
page tree lock has been taken.

Huge tmpfs stress testing has occasionally hit shmem_undo_range()'s
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_to_pgoff(page) != index, page).
Move the setting of mapping and index up before the page_ref_unfreeze()
in __split_huge_page_tail() to fix this: so that a page cache lookup
cannot get a reference while the tail's mapping and index are unstable.
In fact, might as well move them up before the smp_wmb(): I don't see an
actual need for that, but if I'm missing something, this way round is
safer than the other, and no less efficient.
You might argue that VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_to_pgoff(page) != index, page) is
misplaced, and should be left until after the trylock_page(); but left as
is has not crashed since, and gives more stringent assurance.

The term "freeze" is used in several ways in the kernel, and in mm it
has the particular meaning of forcing page refcount temporarily to 0.
freeze_page() is just too confusing a name for a function that unmaps a
page: rename it unmap_page(), and rename unfreeze_page() remap_page().
Went to change the mention of freeze_page() added later in mm/rmap.c,
but found it to be incorrect: ordinary page reclaim reaches there too;
but the substance of the comment still seems correct, so edit it down.

Set the page dirty if VM_WRITE is not set because in such case the pte
won't be marked dirty and the page would be reclaimed without writepage
(i.e. swapout in the shmem case).
This was found by source review. Most apps (certainly including QEMU)
only use UFFDIO_COPY on PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE mappings or the app can't
modify the memory in the first place. This is for correctness and it
could help the non cooperative use case to avoid unexpected data loss.

Userfaultfd did not create private memory when UFFDIO_COPY was invoked
on a MAP_PRIVATE shmem mapping. Instead it wrote to the shmem file,
even when that had not been opened for writing. Though, fortunately,
that could only happen where there was a hole in the file.
Fix the shmem-backed implementation of UFFDIO_COPY to create private
memory for MAP_PRIVATE mappings. The hugetlbfs-backed implementation
was already correct.
This change is visible to userland, if userfaultfd has been used in
unintended ways: so it introduces a small risk of incompatibility, but
is necessary in order to respect file permissions.
An app that uses UFFDIO_COPY for anything like postcopy live migration
won't notice the difference, and in fact it'll run faster because there
will be no copy-on-write and memory waste in the tmpfs pagecache
anymore.
Userfaults on MAP_PRIVATE shmem keep triggering only on file holes like
before.
The real zeropage can also be built on a MAP_PRIVATE shmem mapping
through UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE and that's safe because the zeropage pte is
never dirty, in turn even an mprotect upgrading the vma permission from
PROT_READ to PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE won't make the zeropage pte writable.

Patch series "userfaultfd shmem updates".
Jann found two bugs in the userfaultfd shmem MAP_SHARED backend: the
lack of the VM_MAYWRITE check and the lack of i_size checks.
Then looking into the above we also fixed the MAP_PRIVATE case.
Hugh by source review also found a data loss source if UFFDIO_COPY is
used on shmem MAP_SHARED PROT_READ mappings (the production usages
incidentally run with PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, so the data loss couldn't
happen in those production usages like with QEMU).
The whole patchset is marked for stable.
We verified QEMU postcopy live migration with guest running on shmem
MAP_PRIVATE run as well as before after the fix of shmem MAP_PRIVATE.
Regardless if it's shmem or hugetlbfs or MAP_PRIVATE or MAP_SHARED, QEMU
unconditionally invokes a punch hole if the guest mapping is filebacked
and a MADV_DONTNEED too (needed to get rid of the MAP_PRIVATE COWs and
for the anon backend).
This patch (of 5):
We internally used EFAULT to communicate with the caller, switch to
ENOENT, so EFAULT can be used as a non internal retval.

init_currently_empty_zone() will adjust pgdat->nr_zones and set it to
'zone_idx(zone) + 1' unconditionally. This is correct in the normal
case, while not exact in hot-plug situation.
This function is used in two places:
* free_area_init_core()
* move_pfn_range_to_zone()
In the first case, we are sure zone index increase monotonically. While
in the second one, this is under users control.
One way to reproduce this is:
----------------------------
1. create a virtual machine with empty node1
-m 4G,slots=32,maxmem=32G \
-smp 4,maxcpus=8 \
-numa node,nodeid=0,mem=4G,cpus=0-3 \
-numa node,nodeid=1,mem=0G,cpus=4-7
2. hot-add cpu 3-7
cpu-add [3-7]
2. hot-add memory to nod1
object_add memory-backend-ram,id=ram0,size=1G
device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm0,memdev=ram0,node=1
3. online memory with following order
echo online_movable > memory47/state
echo online > memory40/state
After this, node1 will have its nr_zones equals to (ZONE_NORMAL + 1)
instead of (ZONE_MOVABLE + 1).
Michal said:
"Having an incorrect nr_zones might result in all sorts of problems
which would be quite hard to debug (e.g. reclaim not considering the
movable zone). I do not expect many users would suffer from this it
but still this is trivial and obviously right thing to do so
backporting to the stable tree shouldn't be harmful (last famous
words)"

unaccount_page_cache_page
cleancache_put_page
page_cache_delete
mapping->nrpages -= nr

We don't clean the cleancache for an inode after final file truncation
(removal).
truncate_inode_pages_final

no cleancache_invalidate_inode(mapping)
These way when reading the new file created with same inode we may get

Commit df06b37ffe ("mm/gup: cache dev_pagemap while pinning pages")
attempted to operate on each page that get_user_pages had retrieved. In
order to do that, it created a common exit point from the routine.
However, one case was missed, which this patch fixes up.
Also, there was still an unnecessary shadow declaration (with a
different type) of the "ret" variable, which this patch removes.
Keith's description of the situation is:
This also fixes a potentially leaked dev_pagemap reference count if a
failure occurs when an iteration crosses a vma boundary. I don't think
it's normal to have different vma's on a users mapped zone device
memory, but good to fix anyway.
I actually thought that this code:
/* first iteration or cross vma bound */
if (!vma || start >= vma->vm_end) {
vma = find_extend_vma(mm, start);
if (!vma && in_gate_area(mm, start)) {
ret = get_gate_page(mm, start & PAGE_MASK,
gup_flags, &vma,
pages ? &pages[i] : NULL);
if (ret)
goto out;
dealt with the "you're trying to pin the gate page, as part of this
call", rather than the generic case of crossing a vma boundary. (I
think there's a fine point that I must be overlooking.) But it's still a
valid case, either way.

Scan through the whole array to see if an update is needed. While we're
at it, use sizeof() to be safe against any possible type changes in the
future.
The bug here is that we wouldn't sync per-cpu counters into global ones
if there was an update of numa_stats for higher cpus. Highly
theoretical one though because it is much more probable that zone_stats
are updated so we would refresh anyway. So I wouldn't bother to mark
this for stable, yet something nice to fix.

Page state checks are racy. Under a heavy memory workload (e.g. stress
-m 200 -t 2h) it is quite easy to hit a race window when the page is
allocated but its state is not fully populated yet. A debugging patch to
dump the struct page state shows
has_unmovable_pages: pfn:0x10dfec00, found:0x1, count:0x0
page:ffffea0437fb0000 count:1 mapcount:1 mapping:ffff880e05239841 index:0x7f26e5000 compound_mapcount: 1
flags: 0x5fffffc0090034(uptodate|lru|active|head|swapbacked)
Note that the state has been checked for both PageLRU and PageSwapBacked
already. Closing this race completely would require some sort of retry
logic. This can be tricky and error prone (think of potential endless
or long taking loops).
Workaround this problem for movable zones at least. Such a zone should
only contain movable pages. Commit 15c30bc090 ("mm, memory_hotplug:
make has_unmovable_pages more robust") has told us that this is not
strictly true though. Bootmem pages should be marked reserved though so
we can move the original check after the PageReserved check. Pages from
other zones are still prone to races but we even do not pretend that
memory hotremove works for those so pre-mature failure doesn't hurt that
much.

This bug has been experienced several times by the Oracle DB team. The
BUG is in remove_inode_hugepages() as follows:
/*
* If page is mapped, it was faulted in after being
* unmapped in caller. Unmap (again) now after taking
* the fault mutex. The mutex will prevent faults
* until we finish removing the page.
*
* This race can only happen in the hole punch case.
* Getting here in a truncate operation is a bug.
*/
if (unlikely(page_mapped(page))) {
BUG_ON(truncate_op);
In this case, the elevated map count is not the result of a race.
Rather it was incorrectly incremented as the result of a bug in the huge
pmd sharing code. Consider the following:
- Process A maps a hugetlbfs file of sufficient size and alignment
(PUD_SIZE) that a pmd page could be shared.
- Process B maps the same hugetlbfs file with the same size and
alignment such that a pmd page is shared.
- Process B then calls mprotect() to change protections for the mapping
with the shared pmd. As a result, the pmd is 'unshared'.
- Process B then calls mprotect() again to chage protections for the
mapping back to their original value. pmd remains unshared.
- Process B then forks and process C is created. During the fork
process, we do dup_mm -> dup_mmap -> copy_page_range to copy page
tables. Copying page tables for hugetlb mappings is done in the
routine copy_hugetlb_page_range.
In copy_hugetlb_page_range(), the destination pte is obtained by:
dst_pte = huge_pte_alloc(dst, addr, sz);
If pmd sharing is possible, the returned pointer will be to a pte in an
existing page table. In the situation above, process C could share with
either process A or process B. Since process A is first in the list,
the returned pte is a pointer to a pte in process A's page table.
However, the check for pmd sharing in copy_hugetlb_page_range is:
/* If the pagetables are shared don't copy or take references */
if (dst_pte == src_pte)
continue;
Since process C is sharing with process A instead of process B, the
above test fails. The code in copy_hugetlb_page_range which follows
assumes dst_pte points to a huge_pte_none pte. It copies the pte entry
from src_pte to dst_pte and increments this map count of the associated
page. This is how we end up with an elevated map count.
To solve, check the dst_pte entry for huge_pte_none. If !none, this
implies PMD sharing so do not copy.

Reclaim and free can race on an object which is basically fine but in
order for reclaim to be able to map "freed" object we need to encode
object length in the handle. handle_to_chunks() is then introduced to
extract object length from a handle and use it during mapping.
Moreover, to avoid racing on a z3fold "headless" page release, we should
not try to free that page in z3fold_free() if the reclaim bit is set.
Also, in the unlikely case of trying to reclaim a page being freed, we
should not proceed with that page.
While at it, fix the page accounting in reclaim function.
This patch supersedes "[PATCH] z3fold: fix reclaim lock-ups".

THP allocation mode is quite complex and it depends on the defrag mode.
This complexity is hidden in alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask from a large
part currently. The NUMA special casing (namely __GFP_THISNODE) is
however independent and placed in alloc_pages_vma currently. This both
adds an unnecessary branch to all vma based page allocation requests and
it makes the code more complex unnecessarily as well. Not to mention
that e.g. shmem THP used to do the node reclaiming unconditionally
regardless of the defrag mode until recently. This was not only
unexpected behavior but it was also hardly a good default behavior and I
strongly suspect it was just a side effect of the code sharing more than
a deliberate decision which suggests that such a layering is wrong.
Get rid of the thp special casing from alloc_pages_vma and move the
logic to alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask. __GFP_THISNODE is applied to the
resulting gfp mask only when the direct reclaim is not requested and
when there is no explicit numa binding to preserve the current logic.
Please note that there's also a slight difference wrt MPOL_BIND now. The
previous code would avoid using __GFP_THISNODE if the local node was
outside of policy_nodemask(). After this patch __GFP_THISNODE is avoided
for all MPOL_BIND policies. So there's a difference that if local node
is actually allowed by the bind policy's nodemask, previously
__GFP_THISNODE would be added, but now it won't be. From the behavior
POV this is still correct because the policy nodemask is used.

The defrag mode is "madvise" and from the above report it is clear that
the THP has been allocated for MADV_HUGEPAGA vma.
Andrea has identified that the main source of the problem is
__GFP_THISNODE usage:
: The problem is that direct compaction combined with the NUMA
: __GFP_THISNODE logic in mempolicy.c is telling reclaim to swap very
: hard the local node, instead of failing the allocation if there's no
: THP available in the local node.
:
: Such logic was ok until __GFP_THISNODE was added to the THP allocation
: path even with MPOL_DEFAULT.
:
: The idea behind the __GFP_THISNODE addition, is that it is better to
: provide local memory in PAGE_SIZE units than to use remote NUMA THP
: backed memory. That largely depends on the remote latency though, on
: threadrippers for example the overhead is relatively low in my
: experience.
:
: The combination of __GFP_THISNODE and __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM results in
: extremely slow qemu startup with vfio, if the VM is larger than the
: size of one host NUMA node. This is because it will try very hard to
: unsuccessfully swapout get_user_pages pinned pages as result of the
: __GFP_THISNODE being set, instead of falling back to PAGE_SIZE
: allocations and instead of trying to allocate THP on other nodes (it
: would be even worse without vfio type1 GUP pins of course, except it'd
: be swapping heavily instead).
Fix this by removing __GFP_THISNODE for THP requests which are
requesting the direct reclaim. This effectivelly reverts 5265047ac3
on the grounds that the zone/node reclaim was known to be disruptive due
to premature reclaim when there was memory free. While it made sense at
the time for HPC workloads without NUMA awareness on rare machines, it
was ultimately harmful in the majority of cases. The existing behaviour
is similar, if not as widespare as it applies to a corner case but
crucially, it cannot be tuned around like zone_reclaim_mode can. The
default behaviour should always be to cause the least harm for the
common case.
If there are specialised use cases out there that want zone_reclaim_mode
in specific cases, then it can be built on top. Longterm we should
consider a memory policy which allows for the node reclaim like behavior
for the specific memory ranges which would allow a

: Both patches look correct to me but I'm responding to this one because

: severe stalling behaviour we used to see with both THP and zone reclaim

: I put together a basic experiment with usemem configured to reference a

: Amean Elapsd-4 5.72 ( 0.00%) 5.69 ( 0.45%)

This was a severe regression compared to previous kernels that made
important workloads unusable and it starts when __GFP_THISNODE was
added to THP allocations under MADV_HUGEPAGE. It is not a significant
risk to go to the previous behavior before __GFP_THISNODE was added, it
worked like that for years.
This was simply an optimization to some lucky workloads that can fit in
a single node, but it ended up breaking the VM for others that can't
possibly fit in a single node, so going back is safe.

"cgroup_disable=memory" boot option: the system panics with the following
stack trace:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000000000000f8

The problem occurs because get_mem_cgroup_from_current() returns the NULL
pointer if memory controller is disabled. Let's check if this is a case
at the beginning of memcg_kmem_charge() and just return 0 if
mem_cgroup_disabled() returns true. This is how we handle this case in
many other places in the memory controller code.

Merge tag 'for-linus-20181102' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block
Pull block layer fixes from Jens Axboe:
"The biggest part of this pull request is the revert of the blkcg
cleanup series. It had one fix earlier for a stacked device issue, but
another one was reported. Rather than play whack-a-mole with this,
revert the entire series and try again for the next kernel release.
Apart from that, only small fixes/changes.
Summary:
- Indentation fixup for mtip32xx (Colin Ian King)
- The blkcg cleanup series revert (Dennis Zhou)
- Two NVMe fixes. One fixing a regression in the nvme request
initialization in this merge window, causing nvme-fc to not work.
The other is a suspend/resume p2p resource issue (James, Keith)
- Fix sg discard merge, allowing us to merge in cases where we didn't
before (Jianchao Wang)
- Call rq_qos_exit() after the queue is frozen, preventing a hang
(Ming)
- Fix brd queue setup, fixing an oops if we fail setting up all
devices (Ming)"
* tag 'for-linus-20181102' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
nvme-pci: fix conflicting p2p resource adds
nvme-fc: fix request private initialization

Rework the vfs_clone_file_range and vfs_dedupe_file_range infrastructure to use
a common .remap_file_range method and supply generic bounds and sanity checking
functions that are shared with the data write path. The current VFS
infrastructure has problems with rlimit, LFS file sizes, file time stamps,
maximum filesystem file sizes, stripping setuid bits, etc and so they are
addressed in these commits.
We also introduce the ability for the ->remap_file_range methods to return short
clones so that clones for vfs_copy_file_range() don't get rejected if the entire
range can't be cloned. It also allows filesystems to sliently skip deduplication
of partial EOF blocks if they are not capable of doing so without requiring
errors to be thrown to userspace.
All existing filesystems are converted to user the new .remap_file_range method,
and both XFS and ocfs2 are modified to make use of the new generic checking
infrastructure.

Pull vfs dedup fixes from Dave Chinner:
"This reworks the vfs data cloning infrastructure.
We discovered many issues with these interfaces late in the 4.19 cycle
- the worst of them (data corruption, setuid stripping) were fixed for
XFS in 4.19-rc8, but a larger rework of the infrastructure fixing all
the problems was needed. That rework is the contents of this pull
request.
