2012-05-29mm/buddy: dump PG_compound_lock page flagGavin Shan1-0/+3
The array pageflag_names[] does conversion from page flags into their corresponding names so that a meaningful representation of the corresponding page flag can be printed. This mechanism is used while dumping page frames. However, the array missed PG_compound_lock. So the PG_compound_lock page flag would be printed as a digital number instead of a meaningful string. The patch fixes that and prints "compound_lock" for the PG_compound_lock page flag.

2012-05-29tmpfs: support SEEK_DATA and SEEK_HOLEHugh Dickins1-1/+93
It's quite easy for tmpfs to scan the radix_tree to support llseek's new SEEK_DATA and SEEK_HOLE options: so add them while the minutiae are still on my mind (in particular, the !PageUptodate-ness of pages fallocated but still unwritten). But I don't know who actually uses SEEK_DATA or SEEK_HOLE, and whether it would be of any use to them on tmpfs. This code adds 92 lines and 752 bytes on x86_64 - is that bloat or worthwhile?

2012-05-29tmpfs: quit when fallocate fills memoryHugh Dickins1-2/+56
As it stands, a large fallocate() on tmpfs is liable to fill memory with pages, freed on failure except when they run into swap, at which point they become fixed into the file despite the failure. That feels quite wrong, to be consuming resources precisely when they're in short supply. Go the other way instead: shmem_fallocate() indicate the range it has fallocated to shmem_writepage(), keeping count of pages it's allocating; shmem_writepage() reactivate instead of swapping out pages fallocated by this syscall (but happily swap out those from earlier occasions), keeping count; shmem_fallocate() compare counts and give up once the reactivated pages have started to coming back to writepage (approximately: some zones would in fact recycle faster than others). This is a little unusual, but works well: although we could consider the failure to swap as a bug, and fix it later with SWAP_MAP_FALLOC handling added in swapfile.c and memcontrol.c, I doubt that we shall ever want to. (If there's no swap, an over-large fallocate() on tmpfs is limited in the same way as writing: stopped by rlimit, or by tmpfs mount size if that was set sensibly, or by __vm_enough_memory() heuristics if OVERCOMMIT_GUESS or OVERCOMMIT_NEVER. If OVERCOMMIT_ALWAYS, then it is liable to OOM-kill others as writing would, but stops and frees if interrupted.) Now that everything is freed on failure, we can then skip updating ctime.

2012-05-29tmpfs: undo fallocation on failureHugh Dickins1-33/+72
In the previous episode, we left the already-fallocated pages attached to the file when shmem_fallocate() fails part way through. Now try to do better, by extending the earlier optimization of !Uptodate pages (then always under page lock) to !Uptodate pages (outside of page lock), representing fallocated pages. And don't waste time clearing them at the time of fallocate(), leave that until later if necessary. Adapt shmem_truncate_range() to shmem_undo_range(), so that a failing fallocate can recognize and remove precisely those !Uptodate allocations which it added (and were not independently allocated by racing tasks). But unless we start playing with swapfile.c and memcontrol.c too, once one of our fallocated pages reaches shmem_writepage(), we do then have to instantiate it as an ordinarily allocated page, before swapping out. This is unsatisfactory, but improved in the next episode.

2012-05-29tmpfs: support fallocate preallocationHugh Dickins1-1/+60
The systemd plumbers expressed a wish that tmpfs support preallocation. Cong Wang wrote a patch, but several kernel guys expressed scepticism: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/11/18/137 Christoph Hellwig: What for exactly? Please explain why preallocating on tmpfs would make any sense. Kay Sievers: To be able to safely use mmap(), regarding SIGBUS, on files on the /dev/shm filesystem. The glibc fallback loop for -ENOSYS [or -EOPNOTSUPP] on fallocate is just ugly. Hugh Dickins: If tmpfs is going to support fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE), it would seem perverse to permit the deallocation but fail the allocation. Christoph Hellwig: Agreed. Now that we do have shmem_fallocate() for hole-punching, plumb in basic support for preallocation mode too. It's fairly straightforward (though quite a few details needed attention), except for when it fails part way through. What a pity that fallocate(2) was not specified to return the length allocated, permitting short fallocations! As it is, when it fails part way through, we ought to free what has just been allocated by this system call; but must be very sure not to free any allocated earlier, or any allocated by racing accesses (not all excluded by i_mutex). But we cannot distinguish them: so in this patch simply leak allocations on partial failure (they will be freed later if the file is removed). An attractive alternative approach would have been for fallocate() not to allocate pages at all, but note reservations by entries in the radix-tree. But that would give less assurance, and, critically, would be hard to fit with mem cgroups (who owns the reservations?): allocating pages lets fallocate() behave in just the same way as write().

Remove vmtruncate_range(), and remove the truncate_range method from struct inode_operations: only tmpfs ever supported it, and tmpfs has now converted over to using the fallocate method of file_operations. Update Documentation accordingly, adding (setlease and) fallocate lines.

There is one more user of vmtruncate_range() in our tree, staging/android's ashmem_shrink(): convert it to use do_fallocate() too (but if its unpinned areas are already unmapped - I don't know - then it would do better to use shmem_truncate_range() directly).

2012-05-29tmpfs: optimize clearing when writingHugh Dickins1-3/+17
Nick proposed years ago that tmpfs should avoid clearing its pages where write will overwrite them with new data, as ramfs has long done. But I messed it up and just got bad data. Tried again recently, it works fine. Here's time output for writing 4GiB 16 times on this Core i5 laptop: before: real 0m21.169s user 0m0.028s sys 0m21.057s real 0m21.382s user 0m0.016s sys 0m21.289s real 0m21.311s user 0m0.020s sys 0m21.217s after: real 0m18.273s user 0m0.032s sys 0m18.165s real 0m18.354s user 0m0.020s sys 0m18.265s real 0m18.440s user 0m0.032s sys 0m18.337s ramfs: real 0m16.860s user 0m0.028s sys 0m16.765s real 0m17.382s user 0m0.040s sys 0m17.273s real 0m17.133s user 0m0.044s sys 0m17.021s Yes, I have done perf reports, but they need more explanation than they deserve: in summary, clear_page vanishes, its cache loading shifts into copy_user_generic_unrolled; shmem_getpage_gfp goes down, and surprisingly mark_page_accessed goes way up - I think because they are respectively where the cache gets to be reloaded after being purged by clear or copy.

2012-05-29shmem: replace page if mapping excludes its zoneHugh Dickins4-24/+142
The GMA500 GPU driver uses GEM shmem objects, but with a new twist: the backing RAM has to be below 4GB. Not a problem while the boards supported only 4GB: but now Intel's D2700MUD boards support 8GB, and their GMA3600 is managed by the GMA500 driver. shmem/tmpfs has never pretended to support hardware restrictions on the backing memory, but it might have appeared to do so before v3.1, and even now it works fine until a page is swapped out then back in. When read_cache_page_gfp() supplied a freshly allocated page for copy, that compensated for whatever choice might have been made by earlier swapin readahead; but swapoff was likely to destroy the illusion. We'd like to continue to support GMA500, so now add a new shmem_should_replace_page() check on the zone when about to move a page from swapcache to filecache (in swapin and swapoff cases), with shmem_replace_page() to allocate and substitute a suitable page (given gma500/gem.c's mapping_set_gfp_mask GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_DMA32). This does involve a minor extension to mem_cgroup_replace_page_cache() (the page may or may not have already been charged); and I've removed a comment and call to mem_cgroup_uncharge_cache_page(), which in fact is always a no-op while PageSwapCache. Also removed optimization of an unlikely path in shmem_getpage_gfp(), now that we need to check PageSwapCache more carefully (a racing caller might already have made the copy). And at one point shmem_unuse_inode() needs to use the hitherto private page_swapcount(), to guard against racing with inode eviction. It would make sense to extend shmem_should_replace_page(), to cover cpuset and NUMA mempolicy restrictions too, but set that aside for now: needs a cleanup of shmem mempolicy handling, and more testing, and ought to handle swap faults in do_swap_page() as well as shmem.

2012-05-29mm: compaction: handle incorrect MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE type pageblocksBartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz4-28/+150
When MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE pages are freed from MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE type pageblock (and some MIGRATE_MOVABLE pages are left in it) waiting until an allocation takes ownership of the block may take too long. The type of the pageblock remains unchanged so the pageblock cannot be used as a migration target during compaction. Fix it by: * Adding enum compact_mode (COMPACT_ASYNC_[MOVABLE,UNMOVABLE], and COMPACT_SYNC) and then converting sync field in struct compact_control to use it. * Adding nr_pageblocks_skipped field to struct compact_control and tracking how many destination pageblocks were of MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE type. If COMPACT_ASYNC_MOVABLE mode compaction ran fully in try_to_compact_pages() (COMPACT_COMPLETE) it implies that there is not a suitable page for allocation. In this case then check how if there were enough MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE pageblocks to try a second pass in COMPACT_ASYNC_UNMOVABLE mode. * Scanning the MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE pageblocks (during COMPACT_SYNC and COMPACT_ASYNC_UNMOVABLE compaction modes) and building a count based on finding PageBuddy pages, page_count(page) == 0 or PageLRU pages. If all pages within the MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE pageblock are in one of those three sets change the whole pageblock type to MIGRATE_MOVABLE. My particular test case (on a ARM EXYNOS4 device with 512 MiB, which means 131072 standard 4KiB pages in 'Normal' zone) is to: - allocate 120000 pages for kernel's usage - free every second page (60000 pages) of memory just allocated - allocate and use 60000 pages from user space - free remaining 60000 pages of kernel memory (now we have fragmented memory occupied mostly by user space pages) - try to allocate 100 order-9 (2048 KiB) pages for kernel's usage The results: - with compaction disabled I get 11 successful allocations - with compaction enabled - 14 successful allocations - with this patch I'm able to get all 100 successful allocations NOTE: If we can make kswapd aware of order-0 request during compaction, we can enhance kswapd with changing mode to COMPACT_ASYNC_FULL (COMPACT_ASYNC_MOVABLE + COMPACT_ASYNC_UNMOVABLE).

2012-05-29mm: memcg: count pte references from every member of the reclaimed hierarchyJohannes Weiner3-8/+21
The rmap walker checking page table references has historically ignored references from VMAs that were not part of the memcg that was being reclaimed during memcg hard limit reclaim. When transitioning global reclaim to memcg hierarchy reclaim, I missed that bit and now references from outside a memcg are ignored even during global reclaim. Reverting back to traditional behaviour - count all references during global reclaim and only mind references of the memcg being reclaimed during limit reclaim would be one option. However, the more generic idea is to ignore references exactly then when they are outside the hierarchy that is currently under reclaim; because only then will their reclamation be of any use to help the pressure situation. It makes no sense to ignore references from a sibling memcg and then evict a page that will be immediately refaulted by that sibling which contributes to the same usage of the common ancestor under reclaim. The solution: make the rmap walker ignore references from VMAs that are not part of the hierarchy that is being reclaimed. Flat limit reclaim will stay the same, hierarchical limit reclaim will mind the references only to pages that the hierarchy owns. Global reclaim, since it reclaims from all memcgs, will be fixed to regard all references.

2012-05-29mm: do_migrate_pages() calls migrate_to_node() even if task is already on a correct nodeLarry Woodman1-0/+20
While running an application that moves tasks from one cpuset to another I noticed that it takes much longer and moves many more pages than expected. The reason for this is do_migrate_pages() does its best to preserve the relative node differential from the first node of the cpuset because the application may have been written with that in mind. If memory was interleaved on the nodes of the source cpuset by an application do_migrate_pages() will try its best to maintain that interleaving on the nodes of the destination cpuset. This means copying the memory from all source nodes to the destination nodes even if the source and destination nodes overlap. This is a problem for userspace NUMA placement tools. The amount of time spent doing extra memory moves cancels out some of the NUMA performance improvements. Furthermore, if the number of source and destination nodes are to maintain the previous interleaving layout anyway. This patch changes do_migrate_pages() to only preserve the relative layout inside the program if the number of NUMA nodes in the source and destination mask are the same. If the number is different, we do a much more efficient migration by not touching memory that is in an allowed node. This preserves the old behaviour for programs that want it, while allowing a userspace NUMA placement tool to use the new, faster migration. This improves performance in our tests by up to a factor of 7. Without this change migrating tasks from a cpuset containing nodes 0-7 to a cpuset containing nodes 3-4, we migrate from ALL the nodes even if they are in the both the source and destination nodesets: Migrating 7 to 4 Migrating 6 to 3 Migrating 5 to 4 Migrating 4 to 3 Migrating 1 to 4 Migrating 3 to 4 Migrating 0 to 3 Migrating 2 to 3 With this change we only migrate from nodes that are not in the destination nodesets: Migrating 7 to 4 Migrating 6 to 3 Migrating 5 to 4 Migrating 2 to 3 Migrating 1 to 4 Migrating 0 to 3 Yet if we move from a cpuset containing nodes 2,3,4 to a cpuset containing 3,4,5 we still do move everything so that we preserve the desired NUMA offsets: Migrating 4 to 5 Migrating 3 to 4 Migrating 2 to 3 As far as performance is concerned this simple patch improves the time it takes to move 14, 20 and 26 large tasks from a cpuset containing nodes 0-7 to a cpuset containing nodes 1 & 3 by up to a factor of 7.

2012-05-29thp, memcg: split hugepage for memcg oom on cowDavid Rientjes2-3/+18
On COW, a new hugepage is allocated and charged to the memcg. If the system is oom or the charge to the memcg fails, however, the fault handler will return VM_FAULT_OOM which results in an oom kill. Instead, it's possible to fallback to splitting the hugepage so that the COW results only in an order-0 page being allocated and charged to the memcg which has a higher liklihood to succeed. This is expensive because the hugepage must be split in the page fault handler, but it is much better than unnecessarily oom killing a process.

2012-05-29mm/fork: fix overflow in vma length when copying mmap on cloneSiddhesh Poyarekar1-1/+2
The vma length in dup_mmap is calculated and stored in a unsigned int, which is insufficient and hence overflows for very large maps (beyond 16TB). The following program demonstrates this: #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #define GIG 1024 * 1024 * 1024L #define EXTENT 16393 int main(void) { int i, r; void *m; char buf[1024]; for (i = 0; i < EXTENT; i++) { m = mmap(NULL, (size_t) 1 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024L, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, 0, 0); if (m == (void *)-1) printf("MMAP Failed: %d\n", m); else printf("%d : MMAP returned %p\n", i, m); r = fork(); if (r == 0) { printf("%d: successed\n", i); return 0; } else if (r < 0) printf("FORK Failed: %d\n", r); else if (r > 0) wait(NULL); } return 0; } Increase the storage size of the result to unsigned long, which is sufficient for storing the difference between addresses.

2012-05-29mm/mmap.c: find_vma(): remove unnecessary if(mm) checkRajman Mekaco1-26/+27
The "if (mm)" check is not required in find_vma, as the kernel code calls find_vma only when it is absolutely sure that the mm_struct arg to it is non-NULL. Remove the if(mm) check and adding the a WARN_ONCE(!mm) for now. This will serve the purpose of mandating that the execution context(user-mode/kernel-mode) be known before find_vma is called. Also fixed 2 checkpatch.pl errors in the declaration of the rb_node and vma_tmp local variables. I was browsing through the internet and read a discussion at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/27/342 which discusses removal of the validation check within find_vma. Since no-one responded, I decided to send this patch with Andrew's suggestions.

2012-05-29mm: use kcalloc() instead of kzalloc() to allocate arrayThomas Meyer1-2/+2
The advantage of kcalloc is, that will prevent integer overflows which could result from the multiplication of number of elements and size and it is also a bit nicer to read.

2012-05-29mm: fix off-by-one bug in print_nodes_state()Ryota Ozaki1-5/+3
/sys/devices/system/node/{online,possible} outputs a garbage byte because print_nodes_state() returns content size + 1. To fix the bug, the patch changes the use of cpuset_sprintf_cpulist to follow the use at other places, which is clearer and safer.

There is little motiviation for reclaim_mode_t once RECLAIM_MODE_[A]SYNC and lumpy reclaim have been removed. This patch gets rid of reclaim_mode_t as well and improves the documentation about what reclaim/compaction is and when it is triggered.
