After commit d73eb57b80b (KVM: Boost vCPUs that are delivering interrupts), a
five years old bug is exposed. Running ebizzy benchmark in three 80 vCPUs VMs
on one 80 pCPUs Skylake server, a lot of rcu_sched stall warning splatting
in the VMs after stress testing:

is enabled the yield-candidate vCPU's VMCS RVI field leaks(by
vmx_sync_pir_to_irr()) into spinning-on-a-taken-lock vCPU's current

This patch fixes it by checking conservatively a subset of events.

Commit 11752adb (locking/pvqspinlock: Implement hybrid PV queued/unfair locks)
introduces hybrid PV queued/unfair locks
- queued mode (no starvation)
- unfair mode (good performance on not heavily contended lock)
The lock waiter goes into the unfair mode especially in VMs with over-commit
vCPUs since increaing over-commitment increase the likehood that the queue
head vCPU may have been preempted and not actively spinning.
However, reschedule queue head vCPU timely to acquire the lock still can get
better performance than just depending on lock stealing in over-subscribe
scenario.
Testing on 80 HT 2 socket Xeon Skylake server, with 80 vCPUs VM 80GB RAM:
ebizzy -M
vanilla boosting improved
1VM 23520 25040 6%
2VM 8000 13600 70%
3VM 3100 5400 74%
The lock holder vCPU yields to the queue head vCPU when unlock, to boost queue
head vCPU which is involuntary preemption or the one which is voluntary halt
due to fail to acquire the lock after a short spin in the guest.

Renaming docs seems to be en vogue at the moment, so fix on of the
grossly misnamed directories. We usually never use "virtual" as
a shortcut for virtualization in the kernel, but always virt,
as seen in the virt/ top-level directory. Fix up the documentation
to match that.

After reverting commit 240c35a3783a (kvm: x86: Use task structs fpu field
for user), struct kvm_vcpu is 19456 bytes on my server, PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER(3)
is the order at which allocations are deemed costly to service. In serveless
scenario, one host can service hundreds/thoudands firecracker/kata-container
instances, howerver, new instance will fail to launch after memory is too
fragmented to allocate kvm_vcpu struct on host, this was observed in some
cloud provider product environments.
This patch dynamically allocates user_fpu, kvm_vcpu is 15168 bytes now on my
Skylake server.

The idea before commit 240c35a37 (which has just been reverted)
was that we have the following FPU states:
userspace (QEMU) guest
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
processor vcpu->arch.guest_fpu
>>> KVM_RUN: kvm_load_guest_fpu
vcpu->arch.user_fpu processor
>>> preempt out
vcpu->arch.user_fpu current->thread.fpu
>>> preempt in
vcpu->arch.user_fpu processor
>>> back to userspace
>>> kvm_put_guest_fpu
processor vcpu->arch.guest_fpu
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
With the new lazy model we want to get the state back to the processor
when schedule in from current->thread.fpu.

If a KVM guest is reset while running a nested guest, free_nested will
disable the shadow VMCS execution control in the vmcs01. However,
on the next KVM_RUN vmx_vcpu_run would nevertheless try to sync
the VMCS12 to the shadow VMCS which has since been freed.
This causes a vmptrld of a NULL pointer on my machime, but Jan reports

Inspired by commit 9cac38dd5d (KVM/s390: Set preempted flag during
vcpu wakeup and interrupt delivery), we want to also boost not just
lock holders but also vCPUs that are delivering interrupts. Most
smp_call_function_many calls are synchronous, so the IPI target vCPUs
are also good yield candidates. This patch introduces vcpu->ready to
boost vCPUs during wakeup and interrupt delivery time; unlike s390 we do
not reuse vcpu->preempted so that voluntarily preempted vCPUs are taken
into account by kvm_vcpu_on_spin, but vmx_vcpu_pi_put is not affected
(VT-d PI handles voluntary preemption separately, in pi_pre_block).

When CPU raise #NPF on guest data access and guest CR4.SMAP=1, it is
possible that CPU microcode implementing DecodeAssist will fail
to read bytes of instruction which caused #NPF. This is AMD errata
1096 and it happens because CPU microcode reading instruction bytes
incorrectly attempts to read code as implicit supervisor-mode data
accesses (that is, just like it would read e.g. a TSS), which are
susceptible to SMAP faults. The microcode reads CS:RIP and if it is
a user-mode address according to the page tables, the processor
gives up and returns no instruction bytes. In this case,
GuestIntrBytes field of the VMCB on a VMEXIT will incorrectly
return 0 instead of the correct guest instruction bytes.
Current KVM code attemps to detect and workaround this errata, but it
has multiple issues:
1) It mistakenly checks if guest CR4.SMAP=0 instead of guest CR4.SMAP=1,
which is required for encountering a SMAP fault.
2) It assumes SMAP faults can only occur when guest CPL==3.
However, in case guest CR4.SMEP=0, the guest can execute an instruction
which reside in a user-accessible page with CPL<3 priviledge. If this
instruction raise a #NPF on it's data access, then CPU DecodeAssist
microcode will still encounter a SMAP violation. Even though no sane
OS will do so (as it's an obvious priviledge escalation vulnerability),
we still need to handle this semanticly correct in KVM side.
Note that (2) *is* a useful optimization, because CR4.SMAP=1 is an easy
triggerable condition and guests usually enable SMAP together with SMEP.
If the vCPU has CR4.SMEP=1, the errata could indeed be encountered onlt
at guest CPL==3; otherwise, the CPU would raise a SMEP fault to guest
instead of #NPF. We keep this condition to avoid false positives in
the detection of the errata.
In addition, to avoid future confusion and improve code readbility,
include details of the errata in code and not just in commit message.

Dedicated instances are currently disturbed by unnecessary jitter due
to the emulated lapic timers firing on the same pCPUs where the
vCPUs reside. There is no hardware virtual timer on Intel for guest
like ARM, so both programming timer in guest and the emulated timer fires
incur vmexits. This patch tries to avoid vmexit when the emulated timer
fires, at least in dedicated instance scenario when nohz_full is enabled.
In that case, the emulated timers can be offload to the nearest busy
housekeeping cpus since APICv has been found for several years in server
processors. The guest timer interrupt can then be injected via posted interrupts,
which are delivered by the housekeeping cpu once the emulated timer fires.
The host should tuned so that vCPUs are placed on isolated physical
processors, and with several pCPUs surplus for busy housekeeping.
If disabled mwait/hlt/pause vmexits keep the vCPUs in non-root mode,
~3% redis performance benefit can be observed on Skylake server, and the
number of external interrupt vmexits drops substantially. Without patch

As reported by Maxime at
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=204175:
In vmx/nested.c::get_vmx_mem_address(), when the guest runs in long mode,
the base address of the memory operand is computed with a simple:
*ret = s.base + off;
This is incorrect, the base applies only to FS and GS, not to the others.
Because of that, if the guest uses a VMX instruction based on DS and has
a DS.base that is non-zero, KVM wrongfully adds the base to the
resulting address.

Commit ef08e3b4981a ("[PATCH] cpusets: confine oom_killer to
mem_exclusive cpuset") introduces a heuristic where a potential
oom-killer victim is skipped if the intersection of the potential victim
and the current (the process triggered the oom) is empty based on the
reason that killing such victim most probably will not help the current
allocating process.
However the commit 7887a3da753e ("[PATCH] oom: cpuset hint") changed the
heuristic to just decrease the oom_badness scores of such potential
victim based on the reason that the cpuset of such processes might have
changed and previously they may have allocated memory on mems where the
current allocating process can allocate from.
Unintentionally 7887a3da753e ("[PATCH] oom: cpuset hint") introduced a
side effect as the oom_badness is also exposed to the user space through
/proc/[pid]/oom_score, so, readers with different cpusets can read
different oom_score of the same process.
Later, commit 6cf86ac6f36b ("oom: filter tasks not sharing the same
cpuset") fixed the side effect introduced by 7887a3da753e by moving the
cpuset intersection back to only oom-killer context and out of
oom_badness. However the combination of ab290adbaf8f ("oom: make
oom_unkillable_task() helper function") and 26ebc984913b ("oom:
/proc/<pid>/oom_score treat kernel thread honestly") unintentionally
brought back the cpuset intersection check into the oom_badness
calculation function.
Other than doing cpuset/mempolicy intersection from oom_badness, the memcg
oom context is also doing cpuset/mempolicy intersection which is quite

The fix is to decouple the cpuset/mempolicy intersection check from
oom_unkillable_task() and make sure cpuset/mempolicy intersection check is
only done in the global oom context.

oom_unkillable_task() can be called from three different contexts i.e.
global OOM, memcg OOM and oom_score procfs interface. At the moment
oom_unkillable_task() does a task_in_mem_cgroup() check on the given
process. Since there is no reason to perform task_in_mem_cgroup()
check for global OOM and oom_score procfs interface, those contexts
provide NULL memcg and skips the task_in_mem_cgroup() check. However
for memcg OOM context, the oom_unkillable_task() is always called from
mem_cgroup_scan_tasks() and thus task_in_mem_cgroup() check becomes
redundant and effectively dead code. So, just remove the
task_in_mem_cgroup() check altogether.

dump_tasks() traverses all the existing processes even for the memcg OOM
context which is not only unnecessary but also wasteful. This imposes a
long RCU critical section even from a contained context which can be quite
disruptive.
Change dump_tasks() to be aligned with select_bad_process and use
mem_cgroup_scan_tasks to selectively traverse only processes of the target
memcg hierarchy during memcg OOM.

Since commit c03cd7738a83 ("cgroup: Include dying leaders with live
threads in PROCS iterations") corrected how CSS_TASK_ITER_PROCS works,
mem_cgroup_scan_tasks() can use CSS_TASK_ITER_PROCS in order to check
only one thread from each thread group.

Vmalloc() is getting more and more used these days (kernel stacks, bpf and
percpu allocator are new top users), and the total % of memory consumed by
vmalloc() can be pretty significant and changes dynamically.
/proc/meminfo is the best place to display this information: its top goal
is to show top consumers of the memory.
Since the VmallocUsed field in /proc/meminfo is not in use for quite a
long time (it has been defined to 0 by a5ad88ce8c7f ("mm: get rid of
'vmalloc_info' from /proc/meminfo")), let's reuse it for showing the
actual physical memory consumption of vmalloc().

Report separate components (anon, file, and shmem) for PSS in
smaps_rollup.
This helps understand and tune the memory manager behavior in consumer
devices, particularly mobile devices. Many of them (e.g. chromebooks and
Android-based devices) use zram for anon memory, and perform disk reads
for discarded file pages. The difference in latency is large (e.g.
reading a single page from SSD is 30 times slower than decompressing a
zram page on one popular device), thus it is useful to know how much of
the PSS is anon vs. file.
All the information is already present in /proc/pid/smaps, but much more
expensive to obtain because of the large size of that procfs entry.
This patch also removes a small code duplication in smaps_account, which
would have gotten worse otherwise.
Also updated Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt (the smaps section was a
bit stale, and I added a smaps_rollup section) and
Documentation/ABI/testing/procfs-smaps_rollup.

This function is used by ptrace and proc files like /proc/pid/cmdline and
/proc/pid/environ.
Access_remote_vm never returns error codes, all errors are ignored and
only size of successfully read data is returned. So, if current task was
killed we'll simply return 0 (bytes read).
Mmap_sem could be locked for a long time or forever if something goes
wrong. Using a killable lock permits cleanup of stuck tasks and
simplifies investigation.

We would like to get a better view of the level of fragmentation within
the SLUB allocator. Total number of partial slabs is an indicator of
fragmentation.
Add a command line option (-P | --partial) to sort the slab list by total
number of partial slabs.

We would like to see how fragmented the SLUB allocator is, one window into
fragmentation is the total number of partial slabs.
Currently `slabinfo -X` shows slabs sorted by loss and by size. We can
use this option to also show slabs sorted by number of partial slabs.
Option '-X' can be used in conjunction with '-N' to control the number of
slabs shown e.g. list of top 5 slabs:
slabinfo -X -N5
Add list of slabs ordered by number of partial slabs to output of
`slabinfo -X`.

During recent discussion on LKML over SLAB vs SLUB it was suggested by
Jesper that it would be nice to have a tool to view the current
fragmentation of the slab allocators. CC list for this set is taken
from that thread.
For SLUB we have all the information for this already exposed by the
kernel and also we have a userspace tool for displaying this info:
tools/vm/slabinfo.c
Extend slabinfo to improve the fragmentation information by enabling
sorting of caches by number of partial slabs.
Also add cache list sorted in this manner to the output of `slabinfo -X`.
This patch (of 4):
get_opt() has a spurious character within the option string. Remove it
and reorder the options in alphabetic order so that it is easier to keep
the options correct. Use the same ordering for command help output and
long option handling code.

Commit bd4c82c22c36 ("mm, THP, swap: delay splitting THP after swapped
out"), THP can be swapped out in a whole. But, nr_reclaimed and some
other vm counters still get inc'ed by one even though a whole THP (512
pages) gets swapped out.
This doesn't make too much sense to memory reclaim.
For example, direct reclaim may just need reclaim SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX
pages, reclaiming one THP could fulfill it. But, if nr_reclaimed is not
increased correctly, direct reclaim may just waste time to reclaim more
pages, SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX * 512 pages in worst case.
And, it may cause pgsteal_{kswapd|direct} is greater than
pgscan_{kswapd|direct}, like the below:
pgsteal_kswapd 122933
pgsteal_direct 26600225
pgscan_kswapd 174153
pgscan_direct 14678312
nr_reclaimed and nr_scanned must be fixed in parallel otherwise it would
break some page reclaim logic, e.g.
vmpressure: this looks at the scanned/reclaimed ratio so it won't change
semantics as long as scanned & reclaimed are fixed in parallel.
compaction/reclaim: compaction wants a certain number of physical pages
freed up before going back to compacting.
kswapd priority raising: kswapd raises priority if we scan fewer pages
than the reclaim target (which itself is obviously expressed in order-0
pages). As a result, kswapd can falsely raise its aggressiveness even
when it's making great progress.
Other than nr_scanned and nr_reclaimed, some other counters, e.g.
pgactivate, nr_skipped, nr_ref_keep and nr_unmap_fail need to be fixed too
since they are user visible via cgroup, /proc/vmstat or trace points,
otherwise they would be underreported.
When isolating pages from LRUs, nr_taken has been accounted in base page,
but nr_scanned and nr_skipped are still accounted in THP. It doesn't make
too much sense too since this may cause trace point underreport the
numbers as well.
So accounting those counters in base page instead of accounting THP as one
page.
nr_dirty, nr_unqueued_dirty, nr_congested and nr_writeback are used by
file cache, so they are not impacted by THP swap.
This change may result in lower steal/scan ratio in some cases since THP
may get split during page reclaim, then a part of tail pages get reclaimed
instead of the whole 512 pages, but nr_scanned is accounted by 512,
particularly for direct reclaim. But, this should be not a significant
issue.

Commit 9092c71bb724 ("mm: use sc->priority for slab shrink targets") has
broken up the relationship between sc->nr_scanned and slab pressure.
The sc->nr_scanned can't double slab pressure anymore. So, it sounds no
sense to still keep sc->nr_scanned inc'ed. Actually, it would prevent
from adding pressure on slab shrink since excessive sc->nr_scanned would
prevent from scan->priority raise.
The bonnie test doesn't show this would change the behavior of slab
shrinkers.

Random delete: 2518 63.8 2561.6 64.6
The slight increase of "/sec" without the patch would be caused by the
slight increase of CPU usage.
