Michael Holzheu f851c8d858 percpu: fix bootmem error handling in pcpu_page_first_chunk()
If memory allocation of in pcpu_embed_first_chunk() fails, the
allocated memory is not released correctly. In the release loop also
the non-allocated elements are released which leads to the following
kernel BUG on systems with very little memory:

David Rientjes 17766dde36 mm, thp: count thp_fault_fallback anytime thp fault fails
Currently, thp_fault_fallback in vmstat only gets incremented if a
hugepage allocation fails.  If current's memcg hits its limit or the page
fault handler returns an error, it is incorrectly accounted as a
successful thp_fault_alloc.

Count thp_fault_fallback anytime the page fault handler falls back to
using regular pages and only count thp_fault_alloc when a hugepage has
actually been faulted.

Chris Metcalf 5fbc461636 mm: make lru_add_drain_all() selective
make lru_add_drain_all() only selectively interrupt the cpus that have
per-cpu free pages that can be drained.

This is important in nohz mode where calling mlockall(), for example,
otherwise will interrupt every core unnecessarily.

This is important on workloads where nohz cores are handling 10 Gb traffic
in userspace.  Those CPUs do not enter the kernel and place pages into LRU
pagevecs and they really, really don't want to be interrupted, or they
drop packets on the floor.

Sha Zhengju 3ea67d06e4 memcg: add per cgroup writeback pages accounting
Add memcg routines to count writeback pages, later dirty pages will also
be accounted.

After Kame's commit 89c06bd52f ("memcg: use new logic for page stat
accounting"), we can use 'struct page' flag to test page state instead
of per page_cgroup flag.  But memcg has a feature to move a page from a
cgroup to another one and may have race between "move" and "page stat
accounting".  So in order to avoid the race we have designed a new lock:

         mem_cgroup_begin_update_page_stat()
         modify page information        -->(a)
         mem_cgroup_update_page_stat()  -->(b)
         mem_cgroup_end_update_page_stat()

It requires both (a) and (b)(writeback pages accounting) to be pretected
in mem_cgroup_{begin/end}_update_page_stat().  It's full no-op for
!CONFIG_MEMCG, almost no-op if memcg is disabled (but compiled in), rcu
read lock in the most cases (no task is moving), and spin_lock_irqsave
on top in the slow path.

There're two writeback interfaces to modify: test_{clear/set}_page_writeback().
And the lock order is:
	--> memcg->move_lock
	  --> mapping->tree_lock

We should call mem_cgroup_begin_update_page_stat() before
mem_cgroup_update_page_stat() to get proper locks, however the latter
doesn't do any checking that we use proper locking, which would be hard.
Suggested by Michal Hock we could at least test for rcu_read_lock_held()
because RCU is held if !mem_cgroup_disabled().

Sha Zhengju 68b4876d99 memcg: remove MEMCG_NR_FILE_MAPPED
While accounting memcg page stat, it's not worth to use
MEMCG_NR_FILE_MAPPED as an extra layer of indirection because of the
complexity and presumed performance overhead.  We can use
MEM_CGROUP_STAT_FILE_MAPPED directly.

Johannes Weiner 3812c8c8f3 mm: memcg: do not trap chargers with full callstack on OOM
The memcg OOM handling is incredibly fragile and can deadlock.  When a
task fails to charge memory, it invokes the OOM killer and loops right
there in the charge code until it succeeds.  Comparably, any other task
that enters the charge path at this point will go to a waitqueue right
then and there and sleep until the OOM situation is resolved.  The problem
is that these tasks may hold filesystem locks and the mmap_sem; locks that
the selected OOM victim may need to exit.

For example, in one reported case, the task invoking the OOM killer was
about to charge a page cache page during a write(), which holds the
i_mutex.  The OOM killer selected a task that was just entering truncate()
and trying to acquire the i_mutex:

OOM invoking task:
  mem_cgroup_handle_oom+0x241/0x3b0
  mem_cgroup_cache_charge+0xbe/0xe0
  add_to_page_cache_locked+0x4c/0x140
  add_to_page_cache_lru+0x22/0x50
  grab_cache_page_write_begin+0x8b/0xe0
  ext3_write_begin+0x88/0x270
  generic_file_buffered_write+0x116/0x290
  __generic_file_aio_write+0x27c/0x480
  generic_file_aio_write+0x76/0xf0           # takes ->i_mutex
  do_sync_write+0xea/0x130
  vfs_write+0xf3/0x1f0
  sys_write+0x51/0x90
  system_call_fastpath+0x18/0x1d

OOM kill victim:
  do_truncate+0x58/0xa0              # takes i_mutex
  do_last+0x250/0xa30
  path_openat+0xd7/0x440
  do_filp_open+0x49/0xa0
  do_sys_open+0x106/0x240
  sys_open+0x20/0x30
  system_call_fastpath+0x18/0x1d

The OOM handling task will retry the charge indefinitely while the OOM
killed task is not releasing any resources.

A similar scenario can happen when the kernel OOM killer for a memcg is
disabled and a userspace task is in charge of resolving OOM situations.
In this case, ALL tasks that enter the OOM path will be made to sleep on
the OOM waitqueue and wait for userspace to free resources or increase
the group's limit.  But a userspace OOM handler is prone to deadlock
itself on the locks held by the waiting tasks.  For example one of the
sleeping tasks may be stuck in a brk() call with the mmap_sem held for
writing but the userspace handler, in order to pick an optimal victim,
may need to read files from /proc/<pid>, which tries to acquire the same
mmap_sem for reading and deadlocks.

This patch changes the way tasks behave after detecting a memcg OOM and
makes sure nobody loops or sleeps with locks held:

1. When OOMing in a user fault, invoke the OOM killer and restart the
   fault instead of looping on the charge attempt.  This way, the OOM
   victim can not get stuck on locks the looping task may hold.

2. When OOMing in a user fault but somebody else is handling it
   (either the kernel OOM killer or a userspace handler), don't go to
   sleep in the charge context.  Instead, remember the OOMing memcg in
   the task struct and then fully unwind the page fault stack with
   -ENOMEM.  pagefault_out_of_memory() will then call back into the
   memcg code to check if the -ENOMEM came from the memcg, and then
   either put the task to sleep on the memcg's OOM waitqueue or just
   restart the fault.  The OOM victim can no longer get stuck on any
   lock a sleeping task may hold.

Johannes Weiner fb2a6fc56b mm: memcg: rework and document OOM waiting and wakeup
The memcg OOM handler open-codes a sleeping lock for OOM serialization
(trylock, wait, repeat) because the required locking is so specific to
memcg hierarchies.  However, it would be nice if this construct would be
clearly recognizable and not be as obfuscated as it is right now.  Clean
up as follows:

1. Remove the return value of mem_cgroup_oom_unlock()

2. Rename mem_cgroup_oom_lock() to mem_cgroup_oom_trylock().

3. Pull the prepare_to_wait() out of the memcg_oom_lock scope.  This
   makes it more obvious that the task has to be on the waitqueue
   before attempting to OOM-trylock the hierarchy, to not miss any
   wakeups before going to sleep.  It just didn't matter until now
   because it was all lumped together into the global memcg_oom_lock
   spinlock section.

4. Pull the mem_cgroup_oom_notify() out of the memcg_oom_lock scope.
   It is proctected by the hierarchical OOM-lock.

5. The memcg_oom_lock spinlock is only required to propagate the OOM
   lock in any given hierarchy atomically.  Restrict its scope to
   mem_cgroup_oom_(trylock|unlock).

6. Do not wake up the waitqueue unconditionally at the end of the
   function.  Only the lockholder has to wake up the next in line
   after releasing the lock.

   Note that the lockholder kicks off the OOM-killer, which in turn
   leads to wakeups from the uncharges of the exiting task.  But a
   contender is not guaranteed to see them if it enters the OOM path
   after the OOM kills but before the lockholder releases the lock.
   Thus there has to be an explicit wakeup after releasing the lock.

7. Put the OOM task on the waitqueue before marking the hierarchy as
   under OOM as that is the point where we start to receive wakeups.
   No point in listening before being on the waitqueue.

8. Likewise, unmark the hierarchy before finishing the sleep, for
   symmetry.

Michal Hocko e975de998b memcg, vmscan: do not fall into reclaim-all pass too quickly
shrink_zone starts with soft reclaim pass first and then falls back to
regular reclaim if nothing has been scanned.  This behavior is natural
but there is a catch.  Memcg iterators, when used with the reclaim
cookie, are designed to help to prevent from over reclaim by
interleaving reclaimers (per node-zone-priority) so the tree walk might
miss many (even all) nodes in the hierarchy e.g.  when there are direct
reclaimers racing with each other or with kswapd in the global case or
multiple allocators reaching the limit for the target reclaim case.  To
make it even more complicated, targeted reclaim doesn't do the whole
tree walk because it stops reclaiming once it reclaims sufficient pages.
As a result groups over the limit might be missed, thus nothing is
scanned, and reclaim would fall back to the reclaim all mode.

This patch checks for the incomplete tree walk in shrink_zone.  If no
group has been visited and the hierarchy is soft reclaimable then we
must have missed some groups, in which case the __shrink_zone is called
again.  This doesn't guarantee there will be some progress of course
because the current reclaimer might be still racing with others but it
would at least give a chance to start the walk without a big risk of
reclaim latencies.

Michal Hocko 1be171d60b memcg: track all children over limit in the root
Children in soft limit excess are currently tracked up the hierarchy in
memcg->children_in_excess.  Nevertheless there still might exist tons of
groups that are not in hierarchy relation to the root cgroup (e.g.  all
first level groups if root_mem_cgroup->use_hierarchy == false).

As the whole tree walk has to be done when the iteration starts at
root_mem_cgroup the iterator should be able to skip the walk if there is
no child above the limit without iterating them.  This can be done
easily if the root tracks all children rather than only hierarchical
children.  This is done by this patch which updates root_mem_cgroup
children_in_excess if root_mem_cgroup->use_hierarchy == false so the
root knows about all children in excess.

Please note that this is not an issue for inner memcgs which have
use_hierarchy == false because then only the single group is visited so
no special optimization is necessary.

Michal Hocko e839b6a1c8 memcg, vmscan: do not attempt soft limit reclaim if it would not scan anything
mem_cgroup_should_soft_reclaim controls whether soft reclaim pass is
done and it always says yes currently.  Memcg iterators are clever to
skip nodes that are not soft reclaimable quite efficiently but
mem_cgroup_should_soft_reclaim can be more clever and do not start the
soft reclaim pass at all if it knows that nothing would be scanned
anyway.

In order to do that, simply reuse mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim_eligible for
the target group of the reclaim and allow the pass only if the whole
subtree wouldn't be skipped.

Michal Hocko 7d910c054b memcg: track children in soft limit excess to improve soft limit
Soft limit reclaim has to check the whole reclaim hierarchy while doing
the first pass of the reclaim.  This leads to a higher system time which
can be visible especially when there are many groups in the hierarchy.

This patch adds a per-memcg counter of children in excess.  It also
restores MEM_CGROUP_TARGET_SOFTLIMIT into mem_cgroup_event_ratelimit for a
proper batching.

If a group crosses soft limit for the first time it increases parent's
children_in_excess up the hierarchy.  The similarly if a group gets below
the limit it will decrease the counter.  The transition phase is recorded
in soft_contributed flag.

mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim_eligible then uses this information to better
decide whether to skip the node or the whole subtree.  The rule is simple.
 Skip the node with a children in excess or skip the whole subtree
otherwise.

This has been tested by a stream IO (dd if=/dev/zero of=file with
4*MemTotal size) which is quite sensitive to overhead during reclaim.  The
load is running in a group with soft limit set to 0 and without any limit.
 Apart from that there was a hierarchy with ~500, 2k and 8k groups (two
groups on each level) without any pages in them.  base denotes to the
kernel on which the whole series is based on, rework is the kernel before
this patch and reworkoptim is with this patch applied:

System time is increased by 30-40% but it is reduced a lot comparing to
kernel without this patch.  The higher time can be explained by the fact
that the original soft reclaim scanned at priority 0 so it was much more
effective for this workload (which is basically touch once and writeback).
 The Elapsed time looks better though (~20%).

Both System and Elapsed are in stdev with the base kernel for all
configurations except for 8k where both System and Elapsed are up by 35%.
I do not have a good explanation for this because there is no soft reclaim
pass going on as no group is above the limit which is checked in
mem_cgroup_should_soft_reclaim.

Then I have tested kernel build with the same configuration to see the
behavior with a more general behavior.

Michal Hocko de57780dc6 memcg: enhance memcg iterator to support predicates
The caller of the iterator might know that some nodes or even subtrees
should be skipped but there is no way to tell iterators about that so the
only choice left is to let iterators to visit each node and do the
selection outside of the iterating code.  This, however, doesn't scale
well with hierarchies with many groups where only few groups are
interesting.

This patch adds mem_cgroup_iter_cond variant of the iterator with a
callback which gets called for every visited node.  There are three
possible ways how the callback can influence the walk.  Either the node is
visited, it is skipped but the tree walk continues down the tree or the
whole subtree of the current group is skipped.

Michal Hocko a5b7c87f92 vmscan, memcg: do softlimit reclaim also for targeted reclaim
Soft reclaim has been done only for the global reclaim (both background
and direct).  Since "memcg: integrate soft reclaim tighter with zone
shrinking code" there is no reason for this limitation anymore as the soft
limit reclaim doesn't use any special code paths and it is a part of the
zone shrinking code which is used by both global and targeted reclaims.

From the semantic point of view it is natural to consider soft limit
before touching all groups in the hierarchy tree which is touching the
hard limit because soft limit tells us where to push back when there is a
memory pressure.  It is not important whether the pressure comes from the
limit or imbalanced zones.

This patch simply enables soft reclaim unconditionally in
mem_cgroup_should_soft_reclaim so it is enabled for both global and
targeted reclaim paths.  mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim_eligible needs to learn
about the root of the reclaim to know where to stop checking soft limit
state of parents up the hierarchy.  Say we have

A (over soft limit)
 \
  B (below s.l., hit the hard limit)
 / \
C   D (below s.l.)

B is the source of the outside memory pressure now for D but we shouldn't
soft reclaim it because it is behaving well under B subtree and we can
still reclaim from C (pressumably it is over the limit).
mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim_eligible should therefore stop climbing up the
hierarchy at B (root of the memory pressure).

Michal Hocko 3b38722efd memcg, vmscan: integrate soft reclaim tighter with zone shrinking code
This patchset is sitting out of tree for quite some time without any
objections.  I would be really happy if it made it into 3.12.  I do not
want to push it too hard but I think this work is basically ready and
waiting more doesn't help.

The basic idea is quite simple.  Pull soft reclaim into shrink_zone in the
first step and get rid of the previous soft reclaim infrastructure.
shrink_zone is done in two passes now.  First it tries to do the soft
limit reclaim and it falls back to reclaim-all mode if no group is over
the limit or no pages have been scanned.  The second pass happens at the
same priority so the only time we waste is the memcg tree walk which has
been updated in the third step to have only negligible overhead.

As a bonus we will get rid of a _lot_ of code by this and soft reclaim
will not stand out like before when it wasn't integrated into the zone
shrinking code and it reclaimed at priority 0 (the testing results show
that some workloads suffers from such an aggressive reclaim).  The clean
up is in a separate patch because I felt it would be easier to review that
way.

The second step is soft limit reclaim integration into targeted reclaim.
It should be rather straight forward.  Soft limit has been used only for
the global reclaim so far but it makes sense for any kind of pressure
coming from up-the-hierarchy, including targeted reclaim.

The third step (patches 4-8) addresses the tree walk overhead by enhancing
memcg iterators to enable skipping whole subtrees and tracking number of
over soft limit children at each level of the hierarchy.  This information
is updated same way the old soft limit tree was updated (from
memcg_check_events) so we shouldn't see an additional overhead.  In fact
mem_cgroup_update_soft_limit is much simpler than tree manipulation done
previously.

__shrink_zone uses mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim_eligible as a predicate for
mem_cgroup_iter so the decision whether a particular group should be
visited is done at the iterator level which allows us to decide to skip
the whole subtree as well (if there is no child in excess).  This reduces
the tree walk overhead considerably.

* TEST 1
========

My primary test case was a parallel kernel build with 2 groups (make is
running with -j8 with a distribution .config in a separate cgroup without
any hard limit) on a 32 CPU machine booted with 1GB memory and both builds
run taskset to Node 0 cpus.

I was mostly interested in 2 setups.  Default - no soft limit set and -
and 0 soft limit set to both groups.  The first one should tell us whether
the rework regresses the default behavior while the second one should show
us improvements in an extreme case where both workloads are always over
the soft limit.

/usr/bin/time -v has been used to collect the statistics and each
configuration had 3 runs after fresh boot without any other load on the
system.

The improvement is really huge here (even bigger than with my previous
testing and I suspect that this highly depends on the storage).  Page

Same as with my previous testing Minor faults are more or less within
noise but Major fault count is way bellow the base kernel.

While this looks as a nice win it is fair to say that 0-limit
configuration is quite artificial. So I was playing with 0-no-limit
loads as well.

* TEST 2
========

The following results are from 2 groups configuration on a 16GB machine
(single NUMA node).

- A running stream IO (dd if=/dev/zero of=local.file bs=1024) with
  2*TotalMem with 0 soft limit.
- B running a mem_eater which consumes TotalMem-1G without any limit. The
  mem_eater consumes the memory in 100 chunks with 1s nap after each
  mmap+poppulate so that both loads have chance to fight for the memory.

The expected result is that B shouldn't be reclaimed and A shouldn't see
a big dropdown in elapsed time.

System time improved slightly as well as Elapsed. My previous testing
has shown worse numbers but this again seem to depend on the storage
speed.

My theory is that the writeback doesn't catch up and prio-0 soft reclaim
falls into wait on writeback page too often in the base kernel. The
patched kernel doesn't do that because the soft reclaim is done from the
kswapd/direct reclaim context. This can be seen on the following graph
nicely. The A's group usage_in_bytes regurarly drops really low very often.

All 3 runs

resp. a detail of the single run
http://labs.suse.cz/mhocko/soft_limit_rework/stream_io-vs-mem_eater/stream-one-run.png

mem_eater seems to be doing better as well. It gets to the full
allocation size faster as can be seen on the following graph:
http://labs.suse.cz/mhocko/soft_limit_rework/stream_io-vs-mem_eater/mem_eater-one-run.png

/proc/meminfo collected during the test also shows that rework kernel
hasn't swapped that much (well almost not at all):
base: max: 123900 K avg: 56388.29 K
rework: max: 300 K avg: 128.68 K

kswapd and direct reclaim statistics are of no use unfortunatelly because
soft reclaim is not accounted properly as the counters are hidden by
global_reclaim() checks in the base kernel.

* TEST 3
========

Another test was the same configuration as TEST2 except the stream IO was
replaced by a single kbuild (16 parallel jobs bound to Node0 cpus same as
in TEST1) and mem_eater allocated TotalMem-200M so kbuild had only 200MB
left.

Kbuild did better with the rework kernel here as well:

Again we can see a significant improvement in Elapsed (it also seems to
be more stable), there is a huge dropdown for the Major page faults and
much more swapping:
base: max: 583736 K avg: 112547.43 K
rework: max: 4012 K avg: 124.36 K

Graphs from all three runs show the variability of the kbuild quite
nicely.  It even seems that it took longer after every run with the base
kernel which would be quite surprising as the source tree for the build is
removed and caches are dropped after each run so the build operates on a
freshly extracted sources everytime.
http://labs.suse.cz/mhocko/soft_limit_rework/stream_io-vs-mem_eater/kbuild-mem_eater.png

My other testing shows that this is just a matter of timing and other runs
behave differently the std for Elapsed time is similar ~50.  Example of
other three runs:
http://labs.suse.cz/mhocko/soft_limit_rework/stream_io-vs-mem_eater/kbuild-mem_eater2.png

So to wrap this up.  The series is still doing good and improves the soft
limit.

The testing results for bunch of cgroups with both stream IO and kbuild
loads can be found in "memcg: track children in soft limit excess to
improve soft limit".

This patch:

Memcg soft reclaim has been traditionally triggered from the global
reclaim paths before calling shrink_zone.  mem_cgroup_soft_limit_reclaim
then picked up a group which exceeds the soft limit the most and reclaimed
it with 0 priority to reclaim at least SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pages.

The infrastructure requires per-node-zone trees which hold over-limit
groups and keep them up-to-date (via memcg_check_events) which is not cost
free.  Although this overhead hasn't turned out to be a bottle neck the
implementation is suboptimal because mem_cgroup_update_tree has no idea
which zones consumed memory over the limit so we could easily end up
having a group on a node-zone tree having only few pages from that
node-zone.

This patch doesn't try to fix node-zone trees management because it seems
that integrating soft reclaim into zone shrinking sounds much easier and
more appropriate for several reasons.  First of all 0 priority reclaim was
a crude hack which might lead to big stalls if the group's LRUs are big
and hard to reclaim (e.g.  a lot of dirty/writeback pages).  Soft reclaim
should be applicable also to the targeted reclaim which is awkward right
now without additional hacks.  Last but not least the whole infrastructure
eats quite some code.

After this patch shrink_zone is done in 2 passes.  First it tries to do
the soft reclaim if appropriate (only for global reclaim for now to keep
compatible with the original state) and fall back to ignoring soft limit
if no group is eligible to soft reclaim or nothing has been scanned during
the first pass.  Only groups which are over their soft limit or any of
their parents up the hierarchy is over the limit are considered eligible
during the first pass.

Soft limit tree which is not necessary anymore will be removed in the
follow up patch to make this patch smaller and easier to review.

Linus Torvalds 02b9735c12 ACPI and power management fixes for 3.12-rc1
1) ACPI-based PCI hotplug (ACPIPHP) fixes related to spurious events
 
   After the recent ACPIPHP changes we've seen some interesting breakage
   on a system that triggers device check notifications during boot for
   non-existing devices.  Although those notifications are really
   spurious, we should be able to deal with them nevertheless and that
   shouldn't introduce too much overhead.  Four commits to make that
   work properly.
 
  2) Memory hotplug and hibernation mutual exclusion rework
 
   This was maent to be a cleanup, but it happens to fix a classical
   ABBA deadlock between system suspend/hibernation and ACPI memory
   hotplug which is possible if they are started roughly at the same
   time.  Three commits rework memory hotplug so that it doesn't
   acquire pm_mutex and make hibernation use device_hotplug_lock
   which prevents it from racing with memory hotplug.
 
  3) ACPI Intel LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver crash fix
 
   The ACPI LPSS driver crashes during boot on Apple Macbook Air with
   Haswell that has slightly unusual BIOS configuration in which one
   of the LPSS device's _CRS method doesn't return all of the information
   expected by the driver.  Fix from Mika Westerberg, for stable.
 
  4) ACPICA fix related to Store->ArgX operation
 
   AML interpreter fix for obscure breakage that causes AML to be
   executed incorrectly on some machines (observed in practice).  From
   Bob Moore.
 
  5) ACPI core fix for PCI ACPI device objects lookup
 
   There still are cases in which there is more than one ACPI device
   object matching a given PCI device and we don't choose the one that
   the BIOS expects us to choose, so this makes the lookup take more
   criteria into account in those cases.
 
  6) Fix to prevent cpuidle from crashing in some rare cases
 
   If the result of cpuidle_get_driver() is NULL, which can happen on
   some systems, cpuidle_driver_ref() will crash trying to use that
   pointer and the Daniel Fu's fix prevents that from happening.
 
  7) cpufreq fixes related to CPU hotplug
 
   Stephen Boyd reported a number of concurrency problems with cpufreq
   related to CPU hotplug which are addressed by a series of fixes
   from Srivatsa S Bhat and Viresh Kumar.
 
  8) cpufreq fix for time conversion in time_in_state attribute
 
   Time conversion carried out by cpufreq when user space attempts to
   read /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state won't
   work correcty if cputime_t doesn't map directly to jiffies.  Fix
   from Andreas Schwab.
 
  9) Revert of a troublesome cpufreq commit
 
   Commit 7c30ed5 (cpufreq: make sure frequency transitions are
   serialized) was intended to address some known concurrency problems
   in cpufreq related to the ordering of transitions, but unfortunately
   it introduced several problems of its own, so I decided to revert it
   now and address the original problems later in a more robust way.
 
 10) Intel Haswell CPU models for intel_pstate from Nell Hardcastle.
 
 11) cpufreq fixes related to system suspend/resume
 
   The recent cpufreq changes that made it preserve CPU sysfs attributes
   over suspend/resume cycles introduced a possible NULL pointer
   dereference that caused it to crash during the second attempt to
   suspend.  Three commits from Srivatsa S Bhat fix that problem and a
   couple of related issues.
 
 12) cpufreq locking fix
 
   cpufreq_policy_restore() should acquire the lock for reading, but
   it acquires it for writing.  Fix from Lan Tianyu.

Jan Kara 5e4c0d9741 lib/radix-tree.c: make radix_tree_node_alloc() work correctly within interrupt
With users of radix_tree_preload() run from interrupt (block/blk-ioc.c is
one such possible user), the following race can happen:

radix_tree_preload()
...
radix_tree_insert()
  radix_tree_node_alloc()
    if (rtp->nr) {
      ret = rtp->nodes[rtp->nr - 1];
<interrupt>
...
radix_tree_preload()
...
radix_tree_insert()
  radix_tree_node_alloc()
    if (rtp->nr) {
      ret = rtp->nodes[rtp->nr - 1];

And we give out one radix tree node twice.  That clearly results in radix
tree corruption with different results (usually OOPS) depending on which
two users of radix tree race.

We fix the problem by making radix_tree_node_alloc() always allocate fresh
radix tree nodes when in interrupt.  Using preloading when in interrupt
doesn't make sense since all the allocations have to be atomic anyway and
we cannot steal nodes from process-context users because some users rely
on radix_tree_insert() succeeding after radix_tree_preload().
in_interrupt() check is somewhat ugly but we cannot simply key off passed
gfp_mask as that is acquired from root_gfp_mask() and thus the same for
all preload users.

Another part of the fix is to avoid node preallocation in
radix_tree_preload() when passed gfp_mask doesn't allow waiting.  Again,
preallocation in such case doesn't make sense and when preallocation would
happen in interrupt we could possibly leak some allocated nodes.  However,
some users of radix_tree_preload() require following radix_tree_insert()
to succeed.  To avoid unexpected effects for these users,
radix_tree_preload() only warns if passed gfp mask doesn't allow waiting
and we provide a new function radix_tree_maybe_preload() for those users
which get different gfp mask from different call sites and which are
prepared to handle radix_tree_insert() failure.

Greg Thelen 2bff24a370 memcg: fix multiple large threshold notifications
A memory cgroup with (1) multiple threshold notifications and (2) at least
one threshold >=2G was not reliable.  Specifically the notifications would
either not fire or would not fire in the proper order.

The __mem_cgroup_threshold() signaling logic depends on keeping 64 bit
thresholds in sorted order.  mem_cgroup_usage_register_event() sorts them
with compare_thresholds(), which returns the difference of two 64 bit
thresholds as an int.  If the difference is positive but has bit[31] set,
then sort() treats the difference as negative and breaks sort order.

This fix compares the two arbitrary 64 bit thresholds returning the
classic -1, 0, 1 result.

The test below sets two notifications (at 0x1000 and 0x81001000):
  cd /sys/fs/cgroup/memory
  mkdir x
  for x in 4096 2164264960; do
    cgroup_event_listener x/memory.usage_in_bytes $x | sed "s/^/$x listener:/" &
  done
  echo $$ > x/cgroup.procs
  anon_leaker 500M

v3.11-rc7 fails to signal the 4096 event listener:
  Leaking...
  Done leaking pages.

Patched v3.11-rc7 properly notifies:
  Leaking...
  4096 listener:2013:8:31:14:13:36
  Done leaking pages.

The fixed bug is old.  It appears to date back to the introduction of
memcg threshold notifications in v2.6.34-rc1-116-g2e72b6347c94 "memcg:
implement memory thresholds"

Wanpeng Li 29b4eedee6 mm/hwpoison.c: fix held reference count after unpoisoning empty zero page
madvise hwpoison inject will poison the read-only empty zero page if there
is no write access before poison.  Empty zero page reference count will be
increased for hwpoison, subsequent poison zero page will return directly
since page has already been set PG_hwpoison, however, page reference count
is still increased by get_user_pages_fast.  The unpoison process will
unpoison the empty zero page and decrease the reference count successfully
for the fist time, however, subsequent unpoison empty zero page will
return directly since page has already been unpoisoned and without
decrease the page reference count of empty zero page.

This patch fixes it by make madvise_hwpoison() put a page and return
immediately (without calling memory_failure() or soft_offline_page()) when
the page is already hwpoisoned.

Wanpeng Li 0be35096a1 mm/hwpoison: don't set migration type twice to avoid holding heavily contend zone->lock
Set pageblock migration type will hold zone->lock which is heavy contended
in system to avoid race.  However, soft offline page will set pageblock
migration type twice during get page if the page is in used, not hugetlbfs
page and not on lru list.  There is unnecessary to set the pageblock
migration type and hold heavy contended zone->lock again if the first
round get page have already set the pageblock to right migration type.

The trick here is migration type is MIGRATE_ISOLATE.  There are other two
parts can change MIGRATE_ISOLATE except hwpoison.  One is memory hoplug,
however, we hold lock_memory_hotplug() which avoid race.  The second is
CMA which umovable page allocation requst can't fallback to.  So it's safe
here.

Wanpeng Li 0cea3fdc41 mm/hwpoison: fix race against poison thp
There is a race between hwpoison page and unpoison page, memory_failure
set the page hwpoison and increase num_poisoned_pages without hold page
lock, and one page count will be accounted against thp for
num_poisoned_pages.  However, unpoison can occur before memory_failure
hold page lock and split transparent hugepage, unpoison will decrease
num_poisoned_pages by 1 << compound_order since memory_failure has not yet
split transparent hugepage with page lock held.  That means we account one
page for hwpoison and 1 << compound_order for unpoison.  This patch fix it
by inserting a PageTransHuge check before doing TestClearPageHWPoison,
unpoison failed without clearing PageHWPoison and decreasing
num_poisoned_pages.

Wanpeng Li 841fcc583f mm/hwpoison: fix loss of PG_dirty for errors on mlocked pages
memory_failure() store the page flag of the error page before doing unmap,
and (only) if the first check with page flags at the time decided the
error page is unknown, it do the second check with the stored page flag
since memory_failure() does unmapping of the error pages before doing
page_action().  This unmapping changes the page state, especially
page_remove_rmap() (called from try_to_unmap_one()) clears PG_mlocked, so
page_action() can't catch mlocked pages after that.

However, memory_failure() can't handle memory errors on dirty mlocked
pages correctly.  try_to_unmap_one will move the dirty bit from pte to the
physical page, the second check lose it since it check the stored page
flag.  This patch fix it by restore PG_dirty flag to stored page flag if
the page is dirty.

Maxim Patlasov 5a53748568 mm/page-writeback.c: add strictlimit feature
The feature prevents mistrusted filesystems (ie: FUSE mounts created by
unprivileged users) to grow a large number of dirty pages before
throttling.  For such filesystems balance_dirty_pages always check bdi
counters against bdi limits.  I.e.  even if global "nr_dirty" is under
"freerun", it's not allowed to skip bdi checks.  The only use case for now
is fuse: it sets bdi max_ratio to 1% by default and system administrators
are supposed to expect that this limit won't be exceeded.

The feature is on if a BDI is marked by BDI_CAP_STRICTLIMIT flag.  A
filesystem may set the flag when it initializes its BDI.

The problematic scenario comes from the fact that nobody pays attention to
the NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP counter (i.e.  number of pages under fuse
writeback).  The implementation of fuse writeback releases original page
(by calling end_page_writeback) almost immediately.  A fuse request queued
for real processing bears a copy of original page.  Hence, if userspace
fuse daemon doesn't finalize write requests in timely manner, an
aggressive mmap writer can pollute virtually all memory by those temporary
fuse page copies.  They are carefully accounted in NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP, but
nobody cares.

To make further explanations shorter, let me use "NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP
problem" as a shortcut for "a possibility of uncontrolled grow of amount
of RAM consumed by temporary pages allocated by kernel fuse to process
writeback".

The problem was very easy to reproduce.  There is a trivial example
filesystem implementation in fuse userspace distribution: fusexmp_fh.c.  I
added "sleep(1);" to the write methods, then recompiled and mounted it.
Then created a huge file on the mount point and run a simple program which
mmap-ed the file to a memory region, then wrote a data to the region.  An
hour later I observed almost all RAM consumed by fuse writeback.  Since
then some unrelated changes in kernel fuse made it more difficult to
reproduce, but it is still possible now.

Putting this theoretical happens-in-the-lab thing aside, there is another
thing that really hurts real world (FUSE) users.  This is write-through
page cache policy FUSE currently uses.  I.e.  handling write(2), kernel
fuse populates page cache and flushes user data to the server
synchronously.  This is excessively suboptimal.  Pavel Emelyanov's patches
("writeback cache policy") solve the problem, but they also make resolving
NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP problem absolutely necessary.  Otherwise, simply copying
a huge file to a fuse mount would result in memory starvation.  Miklos,
the maintainer of FUSE, believes strictlimit feature the way to go.

And eventually putting FUSE topics aside, there is one more use-case for
strictlimit feature.  Using a slow USB stick (mass storage) in a machine
with huge amount of RAM installed is a well-known pain.  Let's make simple
computations.  Assuming 64GB of RAM installed, existing implementation of
balance_dirty_pages will start throttling only after 9.6GB of RAM becomes
dirty (freerun == 15% of total RAM).  So, the command "cp 9GB_file
/media/my-usb-storage/" may return in a few seconds, but subsequent
"umount /media/my-usb-storage/" will take more than two hours if effective
throughput of the storage is, to say, 1MB/sec.

After inclusion of strictlimit feature, it will be trivial to add a knob
(e.g.  /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/x:y/strictlimit) to enable it on demand.
Manually or via udev rule.  May be I'm wrong, but it seems to be quite a
natural desire to limit the amount of dirty memory for some devices we are
not fully trust (in the sense of sustainable throughput).

Wanpeng Li 187320932d mm/sparse: introduce alloc_usemap_and_memmap
After commit 9bdac91424 ("sparsemem: Put mem map for one node
together."), vmemmap for one node will be allocated together, its logic
is similar as memory allocation for pageblock flags.  This patch
introduces alloc_usemap_and_memmap to extract the same logic of memory
alloction for pageblock flags and vmemmap.

Lisa Du 6e543d5780 mm: vmscan: fix do_try_to_free_pages() livelock
This patch is based on KOSAKI's work and I add a little more description,
please refer https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/14/74.

Currently, I found system can enter a state that there are lots of free
pages in a zone but only order-0 and order-1 pages which means the zone is
heavily fragmented, then high order allocation could make direct reclaim
path's long stall(ex, 60 seconds) especially in no swap and no compaciton
enviroment.  This problem happened on v3.4, but it seems issue still lives
in current tree, the reason is do_try_to_free_pages enter live lock:

kswapd will go to sleep if the zones have been fully scanned and are still
not balanced.  As kswapd thinks there's little point trying all over again
to avoid infinite loop.  Instead it changes order from high-order to
0-order because kswapd think order-0 is the most important.  Look at
73ce02e9 in detail.  If watermarks are ok, kswapd will go back to sleep
and may leave zone->all_unreclaimable =3D 0.  It assume high-order users
can still perform direct reclaim if they wish.

Direct reclaim continue to reclaim for a high order which is not a
COSTLY_ORDER without oom-killer until kswapd turn on
zone->all_unreclaimble= .  This is because to avoid too early oom-kill.
So it means direct_reclaim depends on kswapd to break this loop.

In worst case, direct-reclaim may continue to page reclaim forever when
kswapd sleeps forever until someone like watchdog detect and finally kill
the process.  As described in:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.mm/103737

We can't turn on zone->all_unreclaimable from direct reclaim path because
direct reclaim path don't take any lock and this way is racy.  Thus this
patch removes zone->all_unreclaimable field completely and recalculates
zone reclaimable state every time.

Note: we can't take the idea that direct-reclaim see zone->pages_scanned
directly and kswapd continue to use zone->all_unreclaimable.  Because, it
is racy.  commit 929bea7c71 (vmscan: all_unreclaimable() use
zone->all_unreclaimable as a name) describes the detail.

Vlastimil Babka 7a8010cd36 mm: munlock: manual pte walk in fast path instead of follow_page_mask()
Currently munlock_vma_pages_range() calls follow_page_mask() to obtain
each individual struct page.  This entails repeated full page table
translations and page table lock taken for each page separately.

This patch avoids the costly follow_page_mask() where possible, by
iterating over ptes within single pmd under single page table lock.  The
first pte is obtained by get_locked_pte() for non-THP page acquired by the
initial follow_page_mask().  The rest of the on-stack pagevec for munlock
is filled up using pte_walk as long as pte_present() and vm_normal_page()
are sufficient to obtain the struct page.

After this patch, a 14% speedup was measured for munlocking a 56GB large
memory area with THP disabled.

Vlastimil Babka 5b40998ae3 mm: munlock: remove redundant get_page/put_page pair on the fast path
The performance of the fast path in munlock_vma_range() can be further
improved by avoiding atomic ops of a redundant get_page()/put_page() pair.

When calling get_page() during page isolation, we already have the pin
from follow_page_mask().  This pin will be then returned by
__pagevec_lru_add(), after which we do not reference the pages anymore.

After this patch, an 8% speedup was measured for munlocking a 56GB large

Vlastimil Babka 56afe477df mm: munlock: bypass per-cpu pvec for putback_lru_page
After introducing batching by pagevecs into munlock_vma_range(), we can
further improve performance by bypassing the copying into per-cpu pagevec
and the get_page/put_page pair associated with that.  Instead we perform
LRU putback directly from our pagevec.  However, this is possible only for
single-mapped pages that are evictable after munlock.  Unevictable pages
require rechecking after putting on the unevictable list, so for those we
fallback to putback_lru_page(), hich handles that.

After this patch, a 13% speedup was measured for munlocking a 56GB large
memory area with THP disabled.

Depending on previous batch which introduced batched isolation in
munlock_vma_range(), we can batch also the updates of NR_MLOCK page stats.
 After the whole pagevec is processed for page isolation, the stats are
updated only once with the number of successful isolations.  There were
however no measurable perfomance gains.

Vlastimil Babka 7225522bb4 mm: munlock: batch non-THP page isolation and munlock+putback using pagevec
Currently, munlock_vma_range() calls munlock_vma_page on each page in a
loop, which results in repeated taking and releasing of the lru_lock
spinlock for isolating pages one by one.  This patch batches the munlock
operations using an on-stack pagevec, so that isolation is done under
single lru_lock.  For THP pages, the old behavior is preserved as they
might be split while putting them into the pagevec.  After this patch, a
9% speedup was measured for munlocking a 56GB large memory area with THP
disabled.

A new function __munlock_pagevec() is introduced that takes a pagevec and:
1) It clears PageMlocked and isolates all pages under lru_lock.  Zone page
stats can be also updated using the variant which assumes disabled
interrupts.  2) It finishes the munlock and lru putback on all pages under
their lock_page.  Note that previously, lock_page covered also the
PageMlocked clearing and page isolation, but it is not needed for those
operations.

Vlastimil Babka 586a32ac1d mm: munlock: remove unnecessary call to lru_add_drain()
In munlock_vma_range(), lru_add_drain() is currently called in a loop
before each munlock_vma_page() call.

This is suboptimal for performance when munlocking many pages.  The
benefits of per-cpu pagevec for batching the LRU putback are removed since
the pagevec only holds at most one page from the previous loop's
iteration.

The lru_add_drain() call also does not serve any purposes for correctness
- it does not even drain pagavecs of all cpu's.  The munlock code already
expects and handles situations where a page cannot be isolated from the
LRU (e.g.  because it is on some per-cpu pagevec).

The history of the (not commented) call also suggest that it appears there
as an oversight rather than intentionally.  Before commit ff6a6da6 ("mm:
accelerate munlock() treatment of THP pages") the call happened only once
upon entering the function.  The commit has moved the call into the while
loope.  So while the other changes in the commit improved munlock
performance for THP pages, it introduced the abovementioned suboptimal
per-cpu pagevec usage.

Further in history, before commit 408e82b7 ("mm: munlock use
follow_page"), munlock_vma_pages_range() was just a wrapper around
__mlock_vma_pages_range which performed both mlock and munlock depending
on a flag.  However, before ba470de4 ("mmap: handle mlocked pages during
map, remap, unmap") the function handled only mlock, not munlock.  The
lru_add_drain call thus comes from the implementation in commit b291f000
("mlock: mlocked pages are unevictable" and was intended only for
mlocking, not munlocking.  The original intention of draining the LRU
pagevec at mlock time was to ensure the pages were on the LRU before the
lock operation so that they could be placed on the unevictable list
immediately.  There is very little motivation to do the same in the
munlock path this, particularly for every single page.

This patch therefore removes the call completely.  After removing the
call, a 10% speedup was measured for munlock() of a 56GB large memory area
with THP disabled.

Vlastimil Babka 0ec3b74c7f mm: putback_lru_page: remove unnecessary call to page_lru_base_type()
The goal of this patch series is to improve performance of munlock() of
large mlocked memory areas on systems without THP.  This is motivated by
reported very long times of crash recovery of processes with such areas,
where munlock() can take several seconds.  See
http://lwn.net/Articles/548108/

The work was driven by a simple benchmark (to be included in mmtests) that
mmaps() e.g.  56GB with MAP_LOCKED | MAP_POPULATE and measures the time of
munlock().  Profiling was performed by attaching operf --pid to the
process and sending a signal to trigger the munlock() part and then notify
bach the monitoring wrapper to stop operf, so that only munlock() appears
in the profile.

The profiles have shown that CPU time is spent mostly by atomic operations
and repeated locking per single pages. This series aims to reduce both, starting
from simpler to more complex changes.

Patch 1 performs a simple cleanup in putback_lru_page() so that page lru base
	type is not determined without being actually needed.

Patch 2 removes an unnecessary call to lru_add_drain() which drains the per-cpu
	pagevec after each munlocked page is put there.

Patch 3 changes munlock_vma_range() to use an on-stack pagevec for isolating
	multiple non-THP pages under a single lru_lock instead of locking and
	processing each page separately.

Patch 4 changes the NR_MLOCK accounting to be called only once per the pvec
	introduced by previous patch.

Patch 5 uses the introduced pagevec to batch also the work of putback_lru_page
	when possible, bypassing the per-cpu pvec and associated overhead.

Patch 6 removes a redundant get_page/put_page pair which saves costly atomic
	operations.

Patch 7 avoids calling follow_page_mask() on each individual page, and obtains
	multiple page references under a single page table lock where possible.

Measurements were made using 3.11-rc3 as a baseline.  The first set of
measurements shows the possibly ideal conditions where batching should
help the most.  All memory is allocated from a single NUMA node and THP is
disabled.

The second set of measurements simulates the worst possible conditions for
batching by using numactl --interleave, so that there is in fact only one
page per pagevec.  Even in this case the series seems to improve
performance thanks to reduced atomic operations and removal of
lru_add_drain().

For completeness, a third set of measurements shows the situation where
THP is enabled and allocations are again done on a single NUMA node.  Here
munlock() is already very fast thanks to huge pages, and this series does
not compromise that performance.  It seems that the removal of call to
lru_add_drain() still helps a bit.

This patch (of 7):

In putback_lru_page() since commit c53954a092 (""mm: remove lru parameter
from __lru_cache_add and lru_cache_add_lru") it is no longer needed to
determine lru list via page_lru_base_type().

This patch replaces it with simple flag is_unevictable which says that the
page was put on the inevictable list.  This is the only information that
matters in subsequent tests.

Cyrill Gorcunov d9104d1ca9 mm: track vma changes with VM_SOFTDIRTY bit
Pavel reported that in case if vma area get unmapped and then mapped (or
expanded) in-place, the soft dirty tracker won't be able to recognize this
situation since it works on pte level and ptes are get zapped on unmap,
loosing soft dirty bit of course.

So to resolve this situation we need to track actions on vma level, there
VM_SOFTDIRTY flag comes in.  When new vma area created (or old expanded)
we set this bit, and keep it here until application calls for clearing
soft dirty bit.

Thus when user space application track memory changes now it can detect if
vma area is renewed.

Khalid Aziz 7cb2ef56e6 mm: fix aio performance regression for database caused by THP
I am working with a tool that simulates oracle database I/O workload.
This tool (orion to be specific -
<http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16638/iodesign.htm#autoId24>)
allocates hugetlbfs pages using shmget() with SHM_HUGETLB flag.  It then
does aio into these pages from flash disks using various common block
sizes used by database.  I am looking at performance with two of the most
common block sizes - 1M and 64K.  aio performance with these two block
sizes plunged after Transparent HugePages was introduced in the kernel.
Here are performance numbers:

		pre-THP		2.6.39		3.11-rc5
1M read		8384 MB/s	5629 MB/s	6501 MB/s
64K read	7867 MB/s	4576 MB/s	4251 MB/s

I have narrowed the performance impact down to the overheads introduced by
THP in __get_page_tail() and put_compound_page() routines.  perf top shows
>40% of cycles being spent in these two routines.  Every time direct I/O
to hugetlbfs pages starts, kernel calls get_page() to grab a reference to
the pages and calls put_page() when I/O completes to put the reference
away.  THP introduced significant amount of locking overhead to get_page()
and put_page() when dealing with compound pages because hugepages can be
split underneath get_page() and put_page().  It added this overhead
irrespective of whether it is dealing with hugetlbfs pages or transparent
hugepages.  This resulted in 20%-45% drop in aio performance when using
hugetlbfs pages.

Since hugetlbfs pages can not be split, there is no reason to go through
all the locking overhead for these pages from what I can see.  I added
code to __get_page_tail() and put_compound_page() to bypass all the
locking code when working with hugetlbfs pages.  This improved performance
significantly.  Performance numbers with this patch:

		pre-THP		3.11-rc5	3.11-rc5 + Patch
1M read		8384 MB/s	6501 MB/s	8371 MB/s
64K read	7867 MB/s	4251 MB/s	6510 MB/s

Performance with 64K read is still lower than what it was before THP, but
still a 53% improvement.  It does mean there is more work to be done but I
will take a 53% improvement for now.

Please take a look at the following patch and let me know if it looks
reasonable.

which represents two different types of data: one for root cashes and
another for child caches.

The size of child data is fixed.  The size of the memcg_caches array is
calculated in runtime.

Currently the size of memcg_cache_params for root caches is calculated
incorrectly, because it includes the size of parameters for child caches.

Naoya Horiguchi 83467efbdb mm: migrate: check movability of hugepage in unmap_and_move_huge_page()
Currently hugepage migration works well only for pmd-based hugepages
(mainly due to lack of testing,) so we had better not enable migration of
other levels of hugepages until we are ready for it.

Some users of hugepage migration (mbind, move_pages, and migrate_pages) do
page table walk and check pud/pmd_huge() there, so they are safe.  But the
other users (softoffline and memory hotremove) don't do this, so without
this patch they can try to migrate unexpected types of hugepages.

To prevent this, we introduce hugepage_migration_support() as an
architecture dependent check of whether hugepage are implemented on a pmd
basis or not.  And on some architecture multiple sizes of hugepages are
available, so hugepage_migration_support() also checks hugepage size.

Naoya Horiguchi c8721bbbdd mm: memory-hotplug: enable memory hotplug to handle hugepage
Until now we can't offline memory blocks which contain hugepages because a
hugepage is considered as an unmovable page.  But now with this patch
series, a hugepage has become movable, so by using hugepage migration we
can offline such memory blocks.

What's different from other users of hugepage migration is that we need to
decompose all the hugepages inside the target memory block into free buddy
pages after hugepage migration, because otherwise free hugepages remaining
in the memory block intervene the memory offlining.  For this reason we
introduce new functions dissolve_free_huge_page() and
dissolve_free_huge_pages().

Other than that, what this patch does is straightforwardly to add hugepage
migration code, that is, adding hugepage code to the functions which scan
over pfn and collect hugepages to be migrated, and adding a hugepage
allocation function to alloc_migrate_target().

As for larger hugepages (1GB for x86_64), it's not easy to do hotremove
over them because it's larger than memory block.  So we now simply leave
it to fail as it is.

Note that for larger hugepages (covered by pud entries, 1GB for x86_64 for

Note that using pmd_huge/pud_huge assumes that hugepages are pointed to by
pmd/pud.  This is not true in some architectures implementing hugepage
with other mechanisms like ia64, but it's OK because pmd_huge/pud_huge
simply return 0 in such arch and page walker simply ignores such
hugepages.

Naoya Horiguchi b8ec1cee5a mm: soft-offline: use migrate_pages() instead of migrate_huge_page()
Currently migrate_huge_page() takes a pointer to a hugepage to be migrated
as an argument, instead of taking a pointer to the list of hugepages to be
migrated.  This behavior was introduced in commit 189ebff28 ("hugetlb:
simplify migrate_huge_page()"), and was OK because until now hugepage
migration is enabled only for soft-offlining which migrates only one
hugepage in a single call.

But the situation will change in the later patches in this series which
enable other users of page migration to support hugepage migration.  They
can kick migration for both of normal pages and hugepages in a single
call, so we need to go back to original implementation which uses linked
lists to collect the hugepages to be migrated.

With this patch, soft_offline_huge_page() switches to use migrate_pages(),
and migrate_huge_page() is not used any more.  So let's remove it.

Naoya Horiguchi 31caf665e6 mm: migrate: make core migration code aware of hugepage
Currently hugepage migration is available only for soft offlining, but
it's also useful for some other users of page migration (clearly because
users of hugepage can enjoy the benefit of mempolicy and memory hotplug.)
So this patchset tries to extend such users to support hugepage migration.

The target of this patchset is to enable hugepage migration for NUMA
related system calls (migrate_pages(2), move_pages(2), and mbind(2)), and
memory hotplug.

This patchset does not add hugepage migration for memory compaction,
because users of memory compaction mainly expect to construct thp by
arranging raw pages, and there's little or no need to compact hugepages.
CMA, another user of page migration, can have benefit from hugepage
migration, but is not enabled to support it for now (just because of lack
of testing and expertise in CMA.)

Hugepage migration of non pmd-based hugepage (for example 1GB hugepage in
x86_64, or hugepages in architectures like ia64) is not enabled for now
(again, because of lack of testing.)

As for how these are achived, I extended the API (migrate_pages()) to
handle hugepage (with patch 1 and 2) and adjusted code of each caller to
check and collect movable hugepages (with patch 3-7).  Remaining 2 patches
are kind of miscellaneous ones to avoid unexpected behavior.  Patch 8 is
about making sure that we only migrate pmd-based hugepages.  And patch 9
is about choosing appropriate zone for hugepage allocation.

My test is mainly functional one, simply kicking hugepage migration via
each entry point and confirm that migration is done correctly.  Test code
is available here:

  git://github.com/Naoya-Horiguchi/test_hugepage_migration_extension.git

And I always run libhugetlbfs test when changing hugetlbfs's code.  With
this patchset, no regression was found in the test.

This patch (of 9):

Before enabling each user of page migration to support hugepage,
this patch enables the list of pages for migration to link not only
LRU pages, but also hugepages. As a result, putback_movable_pages()
and migrate_pages() can handle both of LRU pages and hugepages.

Joonsoo Kim 07443a85ad mm, hugetlb: return a reserved page to a reserved pool if failed
If we fail with a reserved page, just calling put_page() is not
sufficient, because put_page() invoke free_huge_page() at last step and it
doesn't know whether a page comes from a reserved pool or not.  So it
doesn't do anything related to reserved count.  This makes reserve count
lower than how we need, because reserve count already decrease in
dequeue_huge_page_vma().  This patch fix this situation.

Toshi Kani 0f1cfe9d0d mm/hotplug: remove stop_machine() from try_offline_node()
lock_device_hotplug() serializes hotplug & online/offline operations.  The
lock is held in common sysfs online/offline interfaces and ACPI hotplug
code paths.

And here are the code paths:

- CPU & Mem online/offline via sysfs online
	store_online()->lock_device_hotplug()

- Mem online via sysfs state:
	store_mem_state()->lock_device_hotplug()

- ACPI CPU & Mem hot-add:
	acpi_scan_bus_device_check()->lock_device_hotplug()

- ACPI CPU & Mem hot-delete:
	acpi_scan_hot_remove()->lock_device_hotplug()

try_offline_node() off-lines a node if all memory sections and cpus are
removed on the node.  It is called from acpi_processor_remove() and
acpi_memory_remove_memory()->remove_memory() paths, both of which are in
the ACPI hotplug code.

try_offline_node() calls stop_machine() to stop all cpus while checking
all cpu status with the assumption that the caller is not protected from
CPU hotplug or CPU online/offline operations.  However, the caller is
always serialized with lock_device_hotplug().  Also, the code needs to be
properly serialized with a lock, not by stopping all cpus at a random
place with stop_machine().

This patch removes the use of stop_machine() in try_offline_node() and
adds comments to try_offline_node() and remove_memory() that
lock_device_hotplug() is required.

Toshi Kani 27356f54c8 mm/hotplug: verify hotplug memory range
add_memory() and remove_memory() can only handle a memory range aligned
with section.  There are problems when an unaligned range is added and
then deleted as follows:

 - add_memory() with an unaligned range succeeds, but __add_pages()
   called from add_memory() adds a whole section of pages even though
   a given memory range is less than the section size.
 - remove_memory() to the added unaligned range hits BUG_ON() in
   __remove_pages().

This patch changes add_memory() and remove_memory() to check if a given
memory range is aligned with section at the beginning.  As the result,
add_memory() fails with -EINVAL when a given range is unaligned, and does
not add such memory range.  This prevents remove_memory() to be called
with an unaligned range as well.  Note that remove_memory() has to use
BUG_ON() since this function cannot fail.

Fengguang Wu 2cad401801 readahead: make context readahead more conservative
This helps performance on moderately dense random reads on SSD.

Transaction-Per-Second numbers provided by Taobao:

		QPS	case
		-------------------------------------------------------
		7536	disable context readahead totally
w/ patch:	7129	slower size rampup and start RA on the 3rd read
		6717	slower size rampup
w/o patch:	5581	unmodified context readahead

Before, readahead will be started whenever reading page N+1 when it happen
to read N recently.  After patch, we'll only start readahead when *three*
random reads happen to access pages N, N+1, N+2.  The probability of this
happening is extremely low for pure random reads, unless they are very
dense, which actually deserves some readahead.

Also start with a smaller readahead window.  The impact to interleaved
sequential reads should be small, because for a long run stream, the the
small readahead window rampup phase is negletable.

The context readahead actually benefits clustered random reads on HDD
whose seek cost is pretty high.  However as SSD is increasingly used for
random read workloads it's better for the context readahead to concentrate
on interleaved sequential reads.

Another SSD rand read test from Miao

        # file size:        2GB
        # read IO amount: 625MB
        sysbench --test=fileio          \
                --max-requests=10000    \
                --num-threads=1         \
                --file-num=1            \
                --file-block-size=64K   \
                --file-test-mode=rndrd  \
                --file-fsync-freq=0     \
                --file-fsync-end=off    run

shows the performance of btrfs grows up from 69MB/s to 121MB/s, ext4 from
104MB/s to 121MB/s.

memory_block_action()
	offline_pages()
		__offline_pages()
			BUG_ON(start_pfn >= end_pfn)

In v2.6.32, If info->length==0, this way may hit this BUG_ON().

	remove_memory(info->start_addr, info->length)

A later Fujitsu patch renamed this function and the BUG_ON() is
unnecessary.

Christoph Lameter 2bb921e526 vmstat: create separate function to fold per cpu diffs into local counters
The main idea behind this patchset is to reduce the vmstat update overhead
by avoiding interrupt enable/disable and the use of per cpu atomics.

This patch (of 3):

It is better to have a separate folding function because
refresh_cpu_vm_stats() also does other things like expire pages in the
page allocator caches.

If we have a separate function then refresh_cpu_vm_stats() is only called
from the local cpu which allows additional optimizations.

The folding function is only called when a cpu is being downed and
therefore no other processor will be accessing the counters.  Also
simplifies synchronization.

or not when releasing inode.  This may introduce over-counting problem to
reserved count.  With following example code, you can easily reproduce
this situation.

Assume 2MB, nr_hugepages = 100

        size = 20 * MB;
        flag = MAP_SHARED;
        p = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, flag, fd, 0);
        if (p == MAP_FAILED) {
                fprintf(stderr, "mmap() failed: %s\n", strerror(errno));
                return -1;
        }

        flag = MAP_SHARED | MAP_NORESERVE;
        q = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, flag, fd, 0);
        if (q == MAP_FAILED) {
                fprintf(stderr, "mmap() failed: %s\n", strerror(errno));
        }
        q[0] = 'c';

After finish the program, run 'cat /proc/meminfo'.  You can see below
result.

HugePages_Free:      100
HugePages_Rsvd:        1

To fix this, we should check our mapping type and tracked region.  If our
mapping is VM_NORESERVE, VM_MAYSHARE and chg is 0, this imply that current
allocated page will go into page cache which is already reserved region
when mapping is created.  In this case, we should decrease reserve count.
As implementing above, this patch solve the problem.

Joonsoo Kim 72231b03cc mm, hugetlb: add VM_NORESERVE check in vma_has_reserves()
If we map the region with MAP_NORESERVE and MAP_SHARED, we can skip to
check reserve counting and eventually we cannot be ensured to allocate a
huge page in fault time.  With following example code, you can easily find
this situation.

Assume 2MB, nr_hugepages = 100

        fd = hugetlbfs_unlinked_fd();
        if (fd < 0)
                return 1;

        size = 200 * MB;
        flag = MAP_SHARED;
        p = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, flag, fd, 0);
        if (p == MAP_FAILED) {
                fprintf(stderr, "mmap() failed: %s\n", strerror(errno));
                return -1;
        }

        size = 2 * MB;
        flag = MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_SHARED | MAP_HUGETLB | MAP_NORESERVE;
        p = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, flag, -1, 0);
        if (p == MAP_FAILED) {
                fprintf(stderr, "mmap() failed: %s\n", strerror(errno));
        }
        p[0] = '0';
        sleep(10);

During executing sleep(10), run 'cat /proc/meminfo' on another process.

HugePages_Free:       99
HugePages_Rsvd:      100

Number of free should be higher or equal than number of reserve, but this
aren't.  This represent that non reserved shared mapping steal a reserved
page.  Non reserved shared mapping should not eat into reserve space.

If we consider VM_NORESERVE in vma_has_reserve() and return 0 which mean
that we don't have reserved pages, then we check that we have enough free
pages in dequeue_huge_page_vma().  This prevent to steal a reserved page.

With this change, above test generate a SIGBUG which is correct, because
all free pages are reserved and non reserved shared mapping can't get a
free page.

Joonsoo Kim 37a2140dc2 mm, hugetlb: do not use a page in page cache for cow optimization
Currently, we use a page with mapped count 1 in page cache for cow
optimization.  If we find this condition, we don't allocate a new page and
copy contents.  Instead, we map this page directly.  This may introduce a
problem that writting to private mapping overwrite hugetlb file directly.
You can find this situation with following code.

        size = 20 * MB;
        flag = MAP_SHARED;
        p = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, flag, fd, 0);
        if (p == MAP_FAILED) {
                fprintf(stderr, "mmap() failed: %s\n", strerror(errno));
                return -1;
        }
        p[0] = 's';
        fprintf(stdout, "BEFORE STEAL PRIVATE WRITE: %c\n", p[0]);
        munmap(p, size);

        flag = MAP_PRIVATE;
        p = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, flag, fd, 0);
        if (p == MAP_FAILED) {
                fprintf(stderr, "mmap() failed: %s\n", strerror(errno));
        }
        p[0] = 'c';
        munmap(p, size);

        flag = MAP_SHARED;
        p = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, flag, fd, 0);
        if (p == MAP_FAILED) {
                fprintf(stderr, "mmap() failed: %s\n", strerror(errno));
                return -1;
        }
        fprintf(stdout, "AFTER STEAL PRIVATE WRITE: %c\n", p[0]);
        munmap(p, size);

We can see that "AFTER STEAL PRIVATE WRITE: c", not "AFTER STEAL PRIVATE
WRITE: s".  If we turn off this optimization to a page in page cache, the
problem is disappeared.

So, I change the trigger condition of optimization.  If this page is not
AnonPage, we don't do optimization.  This makes this optimization turning
off for a page cache.

The "reserved pages" are a superset of min_free_kbytes, thus this change

Johannes Weiner 81c0a2bb51 mm: page_alloc: fair zone allocator policy
Each zone that holds userspace pages of one workload must be aged at a
speed proportional to the zone size.  Otherwise, the time an individual
page gets to stay in memory depends on the zone it happened to be
allocated in.  Asymmetry in the zone aging creates rather unpredictable
aging behavior and results in the wrong pages being reclaimed, activated
etc.

But exactly this happens right now because of the way the page allocator
and kswapd interact.  The page allocator uses per-node lists of all zones
in the system, ordered by preference, when allocating a new page.  When
the first iteration does not yield any results, kswapd is woken up and the
allocator retries.  Due to the way kswapd reclaims zones below the high
watermark while a zone can be allocated from when it is above the low
watermark, the allocator may keep kswapd running while kswapd reclaim
ensures that the page allocator can keep allocating from the first zone in
the zonelist for extended periods of time.  Meanwhile the other zones
rarely see new allocations and thus get aged much slower in comparison.

The result is that the occasional page placed in lower zones gets
relatively more time in memory, even gets promoted to the active list
after its peers have long been evicted.  Meanwhile, the bulk of the
working set may be thrashing on the preferred zone even though there may
be significant amounts of memory available in the lower zones.

Even the most basic test -- repeatedly reading a file slightly bigger than
memory -- shows how broken the zone aging is.  In this scenario, no single
page should be able stay in memory long enough to get referenced twice and
activated, but activation happens in spades:

  $ grep active_file /proc/zoneinfo
      nr_inactive_file 0
      nr_active_file 0
      nr_inactive_file 0
      nr_active_file 8
      nr_inactive_file 1582
      nr_active_file 11994
  $ cat data data data data >/dev/null
  $ grep active_file /proc/zoneinfo
      nr_inactive_file 0
      nr_active_file 70
      nr_inactive_file 258753
      nr_active_file 443214
      nr_inactive_file 149793
      nr_active_file 12021

Fix this with a very simple round robin allocator.  Each zone is allowed a
batch of allocations that is proportional to the zone's size, after which
it is treated as full.  The batch counters are reset when all zones have
been tried and the allocator enters the slowpath and kicks off kswapd
reclaim.  Allocation and reclaim is now fairly spread out to all
available/allowable zones:

  $ grep active_file /proc/zoneinfo
      nr_inactive_file 0
      nr_active_file 0
      nr_inactive_file 174
      nr_active_file 4865
      nr_inactive_file 53
      nr_active_file 860
  $ cat data data data data >/dev/null
  $ grep active_file /proc/zoneinfo
      nr_inactive_file 0
      nr_active_file 0
      nr_inactive_file 666622
      nr_active_file 4988
      nr_inactive_file 190969
      nr_active_file 937

When zone_reclaim_mode is enabled, allocations will now spread out to all
zones on the local node, not just the first preferred zone (which on a 4G
node might be a tiny Normal zone).

Johannes Weiner 892f795df1 mm: vmscan: fix numa reclaim balance problem in kswapd
The way the page allocator interacts with kswapd creates aging imbalances,
where the amount of time a userspace page gets in memory under reclaim
pressure is dependent on which zone, which node the allocator took the
page frame from.

#1 fixes missed kswapd wakeups on NUMA systems, which lead to some
   nodes falling behind for a full reclaim cycle relative to the other
   nodes in the system

#3 fixes an interaction where kswapd and a continuous stream of page
   allocations keep the preferred zone of a task between the high and
   low watermark (allocations succeed + kswapd does not go to sleep)
   indefinitely, completely underutilizing the lower zones and
   thrashing on the preferred zone

These patches are the aging fairness part of the thrash-detection based
file LRU balancing.  Andrea recommended to submit them separately as they
are bugfixes in their own right.

The following test ran a foreground workload (memcachetest) with
background IO of various sizes on a 4 node 8G system (similar results were
observed with single-node 4G systems):

The overall runtime was reduced, throughput for both the foreground
workload as well as the background IO improved, major faults, swapping and
reclaim activity shrunk significantly, reclaim efficiency more than
quadrupled.

This patch:

When the page allocator fails to get a page from all zones in its given
zonelist, it wakes up the per-node kswapds for all zones that are at their
low watermark.

However, with a system under load the free pages in a zone can fluctuate
enough that the allocation fails but the kswapd wakeup is also skipped
while the zone is still really close to the low watermark.

When one node misses a wakeup like this, it won't be aged before all the
other node's zones are down to their low watermarks again.  And skipping a
full aging cycle is an obvious fairness problem.

Kswapd runs until the high watermarks are restored, so it should also be
woken when the high watermarks are not met.  This ages nodes more equally
and creates a safety margin for the page counter fluctuation.

By using zone_balanced(), it will now check, in addition to the watermark,
if compaction requires more order-0 pages to create a higher order page.

Srivatsa S. Bhat f92310c187 mm/page_alloc.c: fix the value of fallback_migratetype in alloc_extfrag tracepoint()
In the current code, the value of fallback_migratetype that is printed
using the mm_page_alloc_extfrag tracepoint, is the value of the
migratetype *after* it has been set to the preferred migratetype (if the
ownership was changed).  Obviously that wouldn't have been the original
intent.  (We already have a separate 'change_ownership' field to tell
whether the ownership of the pageblock was changed from the
fallback_migratetype to the preferred type.)

The intent of the fallback_migratetype field is to show the migratetype
from which we borrowed pages in order to satisfy the allocation request.
So fix the code to print that value correctly.

Srivatsa S. Bhat fef903efcf mm/page_allo.c: restructure free-page stealing code and fix a bug
The free-page stealing code in __rmqueue_fallback() is somewhat hard to
follow, and has an incredible amount of subtlety hidden inside!

First off, there is a minor bug in the reporting of change-of-ownership of
pageblocks.  Under some conditions, we try to move upto
'pageblock_nr_pages' no.  of pages to the preferred allocation list.  But
we change the ownership of that pageblock to the preferred type only if we
manage to successfully move atleast half of that pageblock (or if
page_group_by_mobility_disabled is set).

However, the current code ignores the latter part and sets the
'migratetype' variable to the preferred type, irrespective of whether we
actually changed the pageblock migratetype of that block or not.  So, the
page_alloc_extfrag tracepoint can end up printing incorrect info (i.e.,
'change_ownership' might be shown as 1 when it must have been 0).

So fixing this involves moving the update of the 'migratetype' variable to
the right place.  But looking closer, we observe that the 'migratetype'
variable is used subsequently for checks such as "is_migrate_cma()".
Obviously the intent there is to check if the *fallback* type is
MIGRATE_CMA, but since we already set the 'migratetype' variable to
start_migratetype, we end up checking if the *preferred* type is
MIGRATE_CMA!!

To make things more interesting, this actually doesn't cause a bug in
practice, because we never change *anything* if the fallback type is CMA.

So, restructure the code in such a way that it is trivial to understand
what is going on, and also fix the above mentioned bug.  And while at it,
also add a comment explaining the subtlety behind the migratetype used in
the call to expand().

Shaohua Li ebc2a1a691 swap: make cluster allocation per-cpu
swap cluster allocation is to get better request merge to improve
performance.  But the cluster is shared globally, if multiple tasks are
doing swap, this will cause interleave disk access.  While multiple tasks
swap is quite common, for example, each numa node has a kswapd thread
doing swap and multiple threads/processes doing direct page reclaim.

ioscheduler can't help too much here, because tasks don't send swapout IO
down to block layer in the meantime.  Block layer does merge some IOs, but
a lot not, depending on how many tasks are doing swapout concurrently.  In
practice, I've seen a lot of small size IO in swapout workloads.

We makes the cluster allocation per-cpu here.  The interleave disk access
issue goes away.  All tasks swapout to their own cluster, so swapout will
become sequential, which can be easily merged to big size IO.  If one CPU
can't get its per-cpu cluster (for example, there is no free cluster
anymore in the swap), it will fallback to scan swap_map.  The CPU can
still continue swap.  We don't need recycle free swap entries of other
CPUs.

In my test (swap to a 2-disk raid0 partition), this improves around 10%
swapout throughput, and request size is increased significantly.

How does this impact swap readahead is uncertain though.  On one side,
page reclaim always isolates and swaps several adjancent pages, this will
make page reclaim write the pages sequentially and benefit readahead.  On
the other side, several CPU write pages interleave means the pages don't
live _sequentially_ but relatively _near_.  In the per-cpu allocation
case, if adjancent pages are written by different cpus, they will live
relatively _far_.  So how this impacts swap readahead depends on how many
pages page reclaim isolates and swaps one time.  If the number is big,
this patch will benefit swap readahead.  Of course, this is about
sequential access pattern.  The patch has no impact for random access
pattern, because the new cluster allocation algorithm is just for SSD.

Alternative solution is organizing swap layout to be per-mm instead of
this per-cpu approach.  In the per-mm layout, we allocate a disk range for
each mm, so pages of one mm live in swap disk adjacently.  per-mm layout
has potential issues of lock contention if multiple reclaimers are swap
pages from one mm.  For a sequential workload, per-mm layout is better to
implement swap readahead, because pages from the mm are adjacent in disk.
But per-cpu layout isn't very bad in this workload, as page reclaim always
isolates and swaps several pages one time, such pages will still live in
disk sequentially and readahead can utilize this.  For a random workload,
per-mm layout isn't beneficial of request merge, because it's quite
possible pages from different mm are swapout in the meantime and IO can't
be merged in per-mm layout.  while with per-cpu layout we can merge
requests from any mm.  Considering random workload is more popular in
workloads with swap (and per-cpu approach isn't too bad for sequential
workload too), I'm choosing per-cpu layout.

Shaohua Li edfe23dac3 swap: fix races exposed by swap discard
The previous patch can expose races, according to Hugh:

swapoff was sometimes failing with "Cannot allocate memory", coming from
try_to_unuse()'s -ENOMEM: it needs to allow for swap_duplicate() failing
on a free entry temporarily SWAP_MAP_BAD while being discarded.

We should use ACCESS_ONCE() there, and whenever accessing swap_map
locklessly; but rather than peppering it throughout try_to_unuse(), just
declare *swap_map with volatile.

try_to_unuse() is accustomed to *swap_map going down racily, but not
necessarily to it jumping up from 0 to SWAP_MAP_BAD: we'll be safer to
prevent that transition once SWP_WRITEOK is switched off, when it's a
waste of time to issue discards anyway (swapon can do a whole discard).

Another issue is:

In swapin_readahead(), read_swap_cache_async() can read a bad swap entry,
because we don't check if readahead swap entry is bad.  This doesn't break
anything but such swapin page is wasteful and can only be freed at page
reclaim.  We should avoid read such swap entry.  And in discard, we mark
swap entry SWAP_MAP_BAD and then switch it to normal when discard is
finished.  If readahead reads such swap entry, we have the same issue, so
we much check if swap entry is bad too.

Thanks Hugh to inspire swapin_readahead could use bad swap entry.

Shaohua Li 815c2c543d swap: make swap discard async
swap can do cluster discard for SSD, which is good, but there are some
problems here:

1. swap do the discard just before page reclaim gets a swap entry and
   writes the disk sectors.  This is useless for high end SSD, because an
   overwrite to a sector implies a discard to original sector too.  A
   discard + overwrite == overwrite.

2. the purpose of doing discard is to improve SSD firmware garbage
   collection.  Idealy we should send discard as early as possible, so
   firmware can do something smart.  Sending discard just after swap entry
   is freed is considered early compared to sending discard before write.
   Of course, if workload is already bound to gc speed, sending discard
   earlier or later doesn't make

3. block discard is a sync API, which will delay scan_swap_map()
   significantly.

4. Write and discard command can be executed parallel in PCIe SSD.
   Making swap discard async can make execution more efficiently.

This patch makes swap discard async and moves discard to where swap entry
is freed.  Discard and write have no dependence now, so above issues can
be avoided.  Idealy we should do discard for any freed sectors, but some
SSD discard is very slow.  This patch still does discard for a whole
cluster.

My test does a several round of 'mmap, write, unmap', which will trigger a
lot of swap discard.  In a fusionio card, with this patch, the test
runtime is reduced to 18% of the time without it, so around 5.5x faster.

Shaohua Li 2a8f944934 swap: change block allocation algorithm for SSD
I'm using a fast SSD to do swap.  scan_swap_map() sometimes uses up to
20~30% CPU time (when cluster is hard to find, the CPU time can be up to
80%), which becomes a bottleneck.  scan_swap_map() scans a byte array to
search a 256 page cluster, which is very slow.

Here I introduced a simple algorithm to search cluster.  Since we only
care about 256 pages cluster, we can just use a counter to track if a
cluster is free.  Every 256 pages use one int to store the counter.  If
the counter of a cluster is 0, the cluster is free.  All free clusters
will be added to a list, so searching cluster is very efficient.  With
this, scap_swap_map() overhead disappears.

This might help low end SD card swap too.  Because if the cluster is
aligned, SD firmware can do flash erase more efficiently.

We only enable the algorithm for SSD.  Hard disk swap isn't fast enough
and has downside with the algorithm which might introduce regression (see
below).

The patch slightly changes which cluster is choosen.  It always adds free
cluster to list tail.  This can help wear leveling for low end SSD too.
And if no cluster found, the scan_swap_map() will do search from the end
of last cluster.  So if no cluster found, the scan_swap_map() will do
search from the end of last free cluster, which is random.  For SSD, this
isn't a problem at all.

Another downside is the cluster must be aligned to 256 pages, which will
reduce the chance to find a cluster.  I would expect this isn't a big
problem for SSD because of the non-seek penality.  (And this is the reason

Dave Hansen 6df46865ff mm: vmstats: track TLB flush stats on UP too
The previous patch doing vmstats for TLB flushes ("mm: vmstats: tlb flush
counters") effectively missed UP since arch/x86/mm/tlb.c is only compiled
for SMP.

UP systems do not do remote TLB flushes, so compile those counters out on
UP.

arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mtrr/generic.c calls __flush_tlb() directly.  This is
probably an optimization since both the mtrr code and __flush_tlb() write
cr4.  It would probably be safe to make that a flush_tlb_all() (and then
get these statistics), but the mtrr code is ancient and I'm hesitant to
touch it other than to just stick in the counters.

Dave Hansen 9824cf9753 mm: vmstats: tlb flush counters
I was investigating some TLB flush scaling issues and realized that we do
not have any good methods for figuring out how many TLB flushes we are
doing.

It would be nice to be able to do these in generic code, but the
arch-independent calls don't explicitly specify whether we actually need
to do remote flushes or not.  In the end, we really need to know if we
actually _did_ global vs.  local invalidations, so that leaves us with few
options other than to muck with the counters from arch-specific code.

Oleg Nesterov e86867720e mm: mmap_region: kill correct_wcount/inode, use allow_write_access()
correct_wcount and inode in mmap_region() just complicate the code.  This
boolean was needed previously, when deny_write_access() was called before
vma_merge(), now we can simply check VM_DENYWRITE and do
allow_write_access() if it is set.

allow_write_access() checks file != NULL, so this is safe even if it was
possible to use VM_DENYWRITE && !file.  Just we need to ensure we use the
same file which was deny_write_access()'ed, so the patch also moves "file
= vma->vm_file" down after allow_write_access().

Oleg Nesterov b2c56e4f7d mm: shift VM_GROWS* check from mmap_region() to do_mmap_pgoff()
mmap() doesn't allow the non-anonymous mappings with VM_GROWS* bit set.
In particular this means that mmap_region()->vma_merge(file, vm_flags)
must always fail if "vm_flags & VM_GROWS" is set incorrectly.

So it does not make sense to check VM_GROWS* after we already allocated
the new vma, the only caller, do_mmap_pgoff(), which can pass this flag
can do the check itself.

And this looks a bit more correct, mmap_region() already unmapped the
old mapping at this stage. But if mmap() is going to fail, it should
avoid do_munmap() if possible.

Note: we check VM_GROWS at the end to ensure that do_mmap_pgoff() won't
return EINVAL in the case when it currently returns another error code.

Many thanks to Hugh who nacked the buggy v1.

Glauber Costa 5ca302c8e5 list_lru: dynamically adjust node arrays
We currently use a compile-time constant to size the node array for the
list_lru structure.  Due to this, we don't need to allocate any memory at
initialization time.  But as a consequence, the structures that contain
embedded list_lru lists can become way too big (the superblock for
instance contains two of them).

This patch aims at ameliorating this situation by dynamically allocating
the node arrays with the firmware provided nr_node_ids.

Glauber Costa 1d3d4437ea vmscan: per-node deferred work
The list_lru infrastructure already keeps per-node LRU lists in its
node-specific list_lru_node arrays and provide us with a per-node API, and
the shrinkers are properly equiped with node information.  This means that
we can now focus our shrinking effort in a single node, but the work that
is deferred from one run to another is kept global at nr_in_batch.  Work
can be deferred, for instance, during direct reclaim under a GFP_NOFS
allocation, where situation, all the filesystem shrinkers will be
prevented from running and accumulate in nr_in_batch the amount of work
they should have done, but could not.

This creates an impedance problem, where upon node pressure, work deferred
will accumulate and end up being flushed in other nodes.  The problem we
describe is particularly harmful in big machines, where many nodes can
accumulate at the same time, all adding to the global counter nr_in_batch.
 As we accumulate more and more, we start to ask for the caches to flush
even bigger numbers.  The result is that the caches are depleted and do
not stabilize.  To achieve stable steady state behavior, we need to tackle
it differently.

In this patch we keep the deferred count per-node, in the new array
nr_deferred[] (the name is also a bit more descriptive) and will never
accumulate that to other nodes.

Glauber Costa 4e717f5c10 list_lru: remove special case function list_lru_dispose_all.
The list_lru implementation has one function, list_lru_dispose_all, with
only one user (the dentry code).  At first, such function appears to make
sense because we are really not interested in the result of isolating each
dentry separately - all of them are going away anyway.  However, it's
implementation is buggy in the following way:

When we call list_lru_dispose_all in fs/dcache.c, we scan all dentries
marking them with DCACHE_SHRINK_LIST.  However, this is done without the
nlru->lock taken.  The imediate result of that is that someone else may
add or remove the dentry from the LRU at the same time.  When list_lru_del
happens in that scenario we will see an element that is not yet marked
with DCACHE_SHRINK_LIST (even though it will be in the future) and
obviously remove it from an lru where the element no longer is.  Since
list_lru_dispose_all will in effect count down nlru's nr_items and
list_lru_del will do the same, this will lead to an imbalance.

The solution for this would not be so simple: we can obviously just keep
the lru_lock taken, but then we have no guarantees that we will be able to
acquire the dentry lock (dentry->d_lock).  To properly solve this, we need
a communication mechanism between the lru and dentry code, so they can
coordinate this with each other.

Such mechanism already exists in the form of the list_lru_walk_cb
callback.  So it is possible to construct a dcache-side prune function
that does the right thing only by calling list_lru_walk in a loop until no
more dentries are available.

With only one user, plus the fact that a sane solution for the problem
would involve boucing between dcache and list_lru anyway, I see little
justification to keep the special case list_lru_dispose_all in tree.

Dave Chinner 5cedf721a7 list_lru: fix broken LRU_RETRY behaviour
The LRU_RETRY code assumes that the list traversal status after we have
dropped and regained the list lock.  Unfortunately, this is not a valid
assumption, and that can lead to racing traversals isolating objects that
the other traversal expects to be the next item on the list.

This is causing problems with the inode cache shrinker isolation, with
races resulting in an inode on a dispose list being "isolated" because a
racing traversal still thinks it is on the LRU.  The inode is then never
reclaimed and that causes hangs if a subsequent lookup on that inode
occurs.

Fix it by always restarting the list walk on a LRU_RETRY return from the
isolate callback.  Avoid the possibility of livelocks the current code was
trying to avoid by always decrementing the nr_to_walk counter on retries
so that even if we keep hitting the same item on the list we'll eventually
stop trying to walk and exit out of the situation causing the problem.

Dave Chinner 3b1d58a4c9 list_lru: per-node list infrastructure
Now that we have an LRU list API, we can start to enhance the
implementation.  This splits the single LRU list into per-node lists and
locks to enhance scalability.  Items are placed on lists according to the
node the memory belongs to.  To make scanning the lists efficient, also
track whether the per-node lists have entries in them in a active
nodemask.

Note: We use a fixed-size array for the node LRU, this struct can be very
big if MAX_NUMNODES is big.  If this becomes a problem this is fixable by
turning this into a pointer and dynamically allocating this to
nr_node_ids.  This quantity is firwmare-provided, and still would provide
room for all nodes at the cost of a pointer lookup and an extra
allocation.  Because that allocation will most likely come from a may very
well fail.

Dave Chinner a38e408248 list: add a new LRU list type
Several subsystems use the same construct for LRU lists - a list head, a
spin lock and and item count.  They also use exactly the same code for
adding and removing items from the LRU.  Create a generic type for these
LRU lists.

This is the beginning of generic, node aware LRUs for shrinkers to work
with.

Dave Chinner 24f7c6b981 mm: new shrinker API
The current shrinker callout API uses an a single shrinker call for
multiple functions.  To determine the function, a special magical value is
passed in a parameter to change the behaviour.  This complicates the
implementation and return value specification for the different
behaviours.

Separate the two different behaviours into separate operations, one to
return a count of freeable objects in the cache, and another to scan a
certain number of objects in the cache for freeing.  In defining these new
operations, ensure the return values and resultant behaviours are clearly
defined and documented.

Modify shrink_slab() to use the new API and implement the callouts for all
the existing shrinkers.

The kmalloc* functions of all slab allcoators are similar now so
lets move them into slab.h. This requires some function naming changes
in slob.

As a results of this patch there is a common set of functions for
all allocators. Also means that kmalloc_large() is now available
in general to perform large order allocations that go directly
via the page allocator. kmalloc_large() can be substituted if
kmalloc() throws warnings because of too large allocations.

kmalloc_large() has exactly the same semantics as kmalloc but
can only used for allocations > PAGE_SIZE.

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
 "A lot of activities on the cgroup front.  Most changes aren't visible
  to userland at all at this point and are laying foundation for the
  planned unified hierarchy.

   - The biggest change is decoupling the lifetime management of css
     (cgroup_subsys_state) from that of cgroup's.  Because controllers
     (cpu, memory, block and so on) will need to be dynamically enabled
     and disabled, css which is the association point between a cgroup
     and a controller may come and go dynamically across the lifetime of
     a cgroup.  Till now, css's were created when the associated cgroup
     was created and stayed till the cgroup got destroyed.

     Assumptions around this tight coupling permeated through cgroup
     core and controllers.  These assumptions are gradually removed,
     which consists bulk of patches, and css destruction path is
     completely decoupled from cgroup destruction path.  Note that
     decoupling of creation path is relatively easy on top of these
     changes and the patchset is pending for the next window.

   - cgroup has its own event mechanism cgroup.event_control, which is
     only used by memcg.  It is overly complex trying to achieve high
     flexibility whose benefits seem dubious at best.  Going forward,
     new events will simply generate file modified event and the
     existing mechanism is being made specific to memcg.  This pull
     request contains prepatory patches for such change.

 Lots of tiny changes here fixing up the way sysfs attributes are
 created, to try to make drivers simpler, and fix a whole class race
 conditions with creations of device attributes after the device was
 announced to userspace.
 
 All the various pieces are acked by the different subsystem maintainers.

Linus Torvalds 1ccfd5eaf8 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux
Pull first batch of s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:
 "The most interesting change is that Martin converted s390 to generic
  hardirqs.  Which means that all current architectures have been
  converted and that CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQS can be removed.  Martin
  prepared a patch for that already (see genirq branch), but the best
  time to merge that is probably at the end of the merge window / begin
  of -rc1.

  Another patch converts s390 to software referenced bits instead of
  relying on the reference bit in the storage key.  Therefore s390
  doesn't use storage keys anymore, except for kvm.

  Besides that we have improvements, cleanups and fixes in PCI, DASD and
  all over the place."

Rafael J. Wysocki 942f40155a PM / hibernate / memory hotplug: Rework mutual exclusion
Since all of the memory hotplug operations have to be carried out
under device_hotplug_lock, they won't need to acquire pm_mutex if
device_hotplug_lock is held around hibernation.

For this reason, make the hibernation code acquire
device_hotplug_lock after freezing user space processes and
release it before thawing them.  At the same tim drop the
lock_system_sleep() and unlock_system_sleep() calls from
lock_memory_hotplug() and unlock_memory_hotplug(), respectively.

Martin Schwidefsky 0944fe3f4a s390/mm: implement software referenced bits
The last remaining use for the storage key of the s390 architecture
is reference counting. The alternative is to make page table entries
invalid while they are old. On access the fault handler marks the
pte/pmd as young which makes the pte/pmd valid if the access rights
allow read access. The pte/pmd invalidations required for software
managed reference bits cost a bit of performance, on the other hand
the RRBE/RRBM instructions to read and reset the referenced bits are
quite expensive as well.

If the system had a few memory groups and all of them were destroyed,
memcg_limited_groups_array_size has non-zero value, but all new caches
are created without memcg_params, because memcg_kmem_enabled() returns
false.

We try to enumirate child caches in a few places and all of them are
potentially dangerous.

For example my kernel is compiled with CONFIG_SLAB and it crashed when I
tryed to mount a NFS share after a few experiments with kmemcg.

Cyrill Gorcunov 6dec97dc92 mm: move_ptes -- Set soft dirty bit depending on pte type
Dave reported corrupted swap entries

 | [ 4588.541886] swap_free: Unused swap offset entry 00002d15

and Hugh pointed that in move_ptes _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bit set regardless
the type of entry pte consists of.  The trick here is that when we carry
soft dirty status in swap entries we are to use _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY
instead, because this is the only place in pte which can be used for own
needs without intersecting with bits owned by swap entry type/offset.

Linus Torvalds 2b047252d0 Fix TLB gather virtual address range invalidation corner cases
Ben Tebulin reported:

 "Since v3.7.2 on two independent machines a very specific Git
  repository fails in 9/10 cases on git-fsck due to an SHA1/memory
  failures.  This only occurs on a very specific repository and can be
  reproduced stably on two independent laptops.  Git mailing list ran
  out of ideas and for me this looks like some very exotic kernel issue"

and bisected the failure to the backport of commit 53a59fc67f ("mm:
limit mmu_gather batching to fix soft lockups on !CONFIG_PREEMPT").

That commit itself is not actually buggy, but what it does is to make it
much more likely to hit the partial TLB invalidation case, since it
introduces a new case in tlb_next_batch() that previously only ever
happened when running out of memory.

The real bug is that the TLB gather virtual memory range setup is subtly
buggered.  It was introduced in commit 597e1c3580 ("mm/mmu_gather:
enable tlb flush range in generic mmu_gather"), and the range handling
was already fixed at least once in commit e6c495a96c ("mm: fix the TLB
range flushed when __tlb_remove_page() runs out of slots"), but that fix
was not complete.

The problem with the TLB gather virtual address range is that it isn't
set up by the initial tlb_gather_mmu() initialization (which didn't get
the TLB range information), but it is set up ad-hoc later by the
functions that actually flush the TLB.  And so any such case that forgot
to update the TLB range entries would potentially miss TLB invalidates.

Rather than try to figure out exactly which particular ad-hoc range
setup was missing (I personally suspect it's the hugetlb case in
zap_huge_pmd(), which didn't have the same logic as zap_pte_range()
did), this patch just gets rid of the problem at the source: make the
TLB range information available to tlb_gather_mmu(), and initialize it
when initializing all the other tlb gather fields.

This makes the patch larger, but conceptually much simpler.  And the end
result is much more understandable; even if you want to play games with
partial ranges when invalidating the TLB contents in chunks, now the
range information is always there, and anybody who doesn't want to
bother with it won't introduce subtle bugs.

Ben verified that this fixes his problem.

Cyrill Gorcunov 179ef71cbc mm: save soft-dirty bits on swapped pages
Andy Lutomirski reported that if a page with _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bit set
get swapped out, the bit is getting lost and no longer available when
pte read back.

To resolve this we introduce _PTE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit which is saved in
pte entry for the page being swapped out.  When such page is to be read
back from a swap cache we check for bit presence and if it's there we
clear it and restore the former _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bit back.

One of the problem was to find a place in pte entry where we can save
the _PTE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit while page is in swap.  The _PAGE_PSE was
chosen for that, it doesn't intersect with swap entry format stored in

Andrey Vagin 3e6b11df24 memcg: don't initialize kmem-cache destroying work for root caches
struct memcg_cache_params has a union.  Different parts of this union
are used for root and non-root caches.  A part with destroying work is
used only for non-root caches.

I fixed the same problem in another place v3.9-rc1-16204-gf101a94, but
didn't notice this one.

This patch fixes the kernel panic:

In commit 4d7868e6(slub: Do not dereference NULL pointer in node_match)
had added check for page NULL in node_match.  Thus, it is not needed
to check it before node_match, remove it.
