2015-11-06mm: make compound_head() robustKirill A. Shutemov1-50/+3
Hugh has pointed that compound_head() call can be unsafe in some context. There's one example: CPU0 CPU1 isolate_migratepages_block() page_count() compound_head() !!PageTail() == true put_page() tail->first_page = NULL head = tail->first_page alloc_pages(__GFP_COMP) prep_compound_page() tail->first_page = head __SetPageTail(p); !!PageTail() == true <head == NULL dereferencing> The race is pure theoretical. I don't it's possible to trigger it in practice. But who knows. We can fix the race by changing how encode PageTail() and compound_head() within struct page to be able to update them in one shot. The patch introduces page->compound_head into third double word block in front of compound_dtor and compound_order. Bit 0 encodes PageTail() and the rest bits are pointer to head page if bit zero is set. The patch moves page->pmd_huge_pte out of word, just in case if an architecture defines pgtable_t into something what can have the bit 0 set. hugetlb_cgroup uses page->lru.next in the second tail page to store pointer struct hugetlb_cgroup. The patch switch it to use page->private in the second tail page instead. The space is free since ->first_page is removed from the union. The patch also opens possibility to remove HUGETLB_CGROUP_MIN_ORDER limitation, since there's now space in first tail page to store struct hugetlb_cgroup pointer. But that's out of scope of the patch. That means page->compound_head shares storage space with: - page->lru.next; - page->next; - page->rcu_head.next; That's too long list to be absolutely sure, but looks like nobody uses bit 0 of the word. page->rcu_head.next guaranteed[1] to have bit 0 clean as long as we use call_rcu(), call_rcu_bh(), call_rcu_sched(), or call_srcu(). But future call_rcu_lazy() is not allowed as it makes use of the bit and we can get false positive PageTail().

2015-11-06mm: pack compound_dtor and compound_order into one word in struct pageKirill A. Shutemov1-5/+19
The patch halves space occupied by compound_dtor and compound_order in struct page. For compound_order, it's trivial long -> short conversion. For get_compound_page_dtor(), we now use hardcoded table for destructor lookup and store its index in the struct page instead of direct pointer to destructor. It shouldn't be a big trouble to maintain the table: we have only two destructor and NULL currently. This patch free up one word in tail pages for reuse. This is preparation for the next patch.

2015-11-05mm: introduce VM_LOCKONFAULTEric B Munson1-0/+5
The cost of faulting in all memory to be locked can be very high when working with large mappings. If only portions of the mapping will be used this can incur a high penalty for locking. For the example of a large file, this is the usage pattern for a large statical language model (probably applies to other statical or graphical models as well). For the security example, any application transacting in data that cannot be swapped out (credit card data, medical records, etc). This patch introduces the ability to request that pages are not pre-faulted, but are placed on the unevictable LRU when they are finally faulted in. The VM_LOCKONFAULT flag will be used together with VM_LOCKED and has no effect when set without VM_LOCKED. Setting the VM_LOCKONFAULT flag for a VMA will cause pages faulted into that VMA to be added to the unevictable LRU when they are faulted or if they are already present, but will not cause any missing pages to be faulted in. Exposing this new lock state means that we cannot overload the meaning of the FOLL_POPULATE flag any longer. Prior to this patch it was used to mean that the VMA for a fault was locked. This means we need the new FOLL_MLOCK flag to communicate the locked state of a VMA. FOLL_POPULATE will now only control if the VMA should be populated and in the case of VM_LOCKONFAULT, it will not be set. Signed-off-by: Eric B Munson <emunson@akamai.com> Acked-by: Kirill A.

If ALLOC_SPLIT_PTLOCKS is defined, ptlock_init may fail, in which case we shouldn't increment NR_PAGETABLE. Since small allocations, such as ptlock, normally do not fail (currently they can fail if kmemcg is used though), this patch does not really fix anything and should be considered as a code cleanup.

2015-11-05mm: use only per-device readahead limitRoman Gushchin1-2/+0
Maximal readahead size is limited now by two values: 1) by global 2Mb constant (MAX_READAHEAD in max_sane_readahead()) 2) by configurable per-device value* (bdi->ra_pages) There are devices, which require custom readahead limit. For instance, for RAIDs it's calculated as number of devices multiplied by chunk size times 2. Readahead size can never be larger than bdi->ra_pages * 2 value (POSIX_FADV_SEQUNTIAL doubles readahead size). If so, why do we need two limits? I suggest to completely remove this max_sane_readahead() stuff and use per-device readahead limit everywhere. Also, using right readahead size for RAID disks can significantly increase i/o performance: before: dd if=/dev/md2 of=/dev/null bs=100M count=100 100+0 records in 100+0 records out 10485760000 bytes (10 GB) copied, 12.9741 s, 808 MB/s after: $ dd if=/dev/md2 of=/dev/null bs=100M count=100 100+0 records in 100+0 records out 10485760000 bytes (10 GB) copied, 8.91317 s, 1.2 GB/s (It's an 8-disks RAID5 storage). This patch doesn't change sys_readahead and madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) behavior introduced by 6d2be915e589b58 ("mm/readahead.c: fix readahead failure for memoryless NUMA nodes and limit readahead pages").

2015-10-01memcg: fix dirty page migrationGreg Thelen1-0/+21
The problem starts with a file backed dirty page which is charged to a memcg. Then page migration is used to move oldpage to newpage. Migration: - copies the oldpage's data to newpage - clears oldpage.PG_dirty - sets newpage.PG_dirty - uncharges oldpage from memcg - charges newpage to memcg Clearing oldpage.PG_dirty decrements the charged memcg's dirty page count. However, because newpage is not yet charged, setting newpage.PG_dirty does not increment the memcg's dirty page count. After migration completes newpage.PG_dirty is eventually cleared, often in account_page_cleaned(). At this time newpage is charged to a memcg so the memcg's dirty page count is decremented which causes underflow because the count was not previously incremented by migration. This underflow causes balance_dirty_pages() to see a very large unsigned number of dirty memcg pages which leads to aggressive throttling of buffered writes by processes in non root memcg. This issue: - can harm performance of non root memcg buffered writes. - can report too small (even negative) values in memory.stat[(total_)dirty] counters of all memcg, including the root. To avoid polluting migrate.c with #ifdef CONFIG_MEMCG checks, introduce page_memcg() and set_page_memcg() helpers. Test: 0) setup and enter limited memcg mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test echo 1G > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/memory.limit_in_bytes echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/test/cgroup.procs 1) buffered writes baseline dd if=/dev/zero of=/data/tmp/foo bs=1M count=1k sync grep ^dirty /sys/fs/cgroup/test/memory.stat 2) buffered writes with compaction antagonist to induce migration yes 1 > /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory & rm -rf /data/tmp/foo dd if=/dev/zero of=/data/tmp/foo bs=1M count=1k kill % sync grep ^dirty /sys/fs/cgroup/test/memory.stat 3) buffered writes without antagonist, should match baseline rm -rf /data/tmp/foo dd if=/dev/zero of=/data/tmp/foo bs=1M count=1k sync grep ^dirty /sys/fs/cgroup/test/memory.stat (speed, dirty residue) unpatched patched 1) 841 MB/s 0 dirty pages 886 MB/s 0 dirty pages 2) 611 MB/s -33427456 dirty pages 793 MB/s 0 dirty pages 3) 114 MB/s -33427456 dirty pages 891 MB/s 0 dirty pages Notice that unpatched baseline performance (1) fell after migration (3): 841 -> 114 MB/s.

2015-09-10mm, mpx: add "vm_flags_t vm_flags" arg to do_mmap_pgoff()Oleg Nesterov1-2/+10
Add the additional "vm_flags_t vm_flags" argument to do_mmap_pgoff(), rename it to do_mmap(), and re-introduce do_mmap_pgoff() as a simple wrapper on top of do_mmap(). Perhaps we should update the callers of do_mmap_pgoff() and kill it later. This way mpx_mmap() can simply call do_mmap(vm_flags => VM_MPX) and do not play with vm internals. After this change mmap_region() has a single user outside of mmap.c, arch/tile/mm/elf.c:arch_setup_additional_pages(). It would be nice to change arch/tile/ and unexport mmap_region().

2015-09-08mm: rename and move get/set_freepage_migratetypeVlastimil Babka1-12/+0
The pair of get/set_freepage_migratetype() functions are used to cache pageblock migratetype for a page put on a pcplist, so that it does not have to be retrieved again when the page is put on a free list (e.g. when pcplists become full). Historically it was also assumed that the value is accurate for pages on freelists (as the functions' names unfortunately suggest), but that cannot be guaranteed without affecting various allocator fast paths. It is in fact not needed and all such uses have been removed. The last remaining (but pointless) usage related to pages of freelists is in move_freepages(), which this patch removes. To prevent further confusion, rename the functions to get/set_pcppage_migratetype() and expand their description. Since all the users are now in mm/page_alloc.c, move the functions there from the shared header.

2015-09-08mm: introduce vma_is_anonymous(vma) helperOleg Nesterov1-0/+5
special_mapping_fault() is absolutely broken. It seems it was always wrong, but this didn't matter until vdso/vvar started to use more than one page. And after this change vma_is_anonymous() becomes really trivial, it simply checks vm_ops == NULL. However, I do think the helper makes sense. There are a lot of ->vm_ops != NULL checks, the helper makes the caller's code more understandable (self-documented) and this is more grep-friendly. This patch (of 3): Preparation. Add the new simple helper, vma_is_anonymous(vma), and change handle_pte_fault() to use it. It will have more users. The name is not accurate, say a hpet_mmap()'ed vma is not anonymous. Perhaps it should be named vma_has_fault() instead. But it matches the logic in mmap.c/memory.c (see next changes). "True" just means that a page fault will use do_anonymous_page().

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams: "This update has successfully completed a 0day-kbuild run and has appeared in a linux-next release. The changes outside of the typical drivers/nvdimm/ and drivers/acpi/nfit.[ch] paths are related to the removal of IORESOURCE_CACHEABLE, the introduction of memremap(), and the introduction of ZONE_DEVICE + devm_memremap_pages(). Summary: - Introduce ZONE_DEVICE and devm_memremap_pages() as a generic mechanism for adding device-driver-discovered memory regions to the kernel's direct map. This facility is used by the pmem driver to enable pfn_to_page() operations on the page frames returned by DAX ('direct_access' in 'struct block_device_operations'). For now, the 'memmap' allocation for these "device" pages comes from "System RAM". Support for allocating the memmap from device memory will arrive in a later kernel. - Introduce memremap() to replace usages of ioremap_cache() and ioremap_wt(). memremap() drops the __iomem annotation for these mappings to memory that do not have i/o side effects. The replacement of ioremap_cache() with memremap() is limited to the pmem driver to ease merging the api change in v4.3. Completion of the conversion is targeted for v4.4. - Similar to the usage of memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem() in the pmem driver, update the VFS DAX implementation and PMEM api to provide persistence guarantees for kernel operations on a DAX mapping. - Convert the ACPI NFIT 'BLK' driver to map the block apertures as cacheable to improve performance. - Miscellaneous updates and fixes to libnvdimm including support for issuing "address range scrub" commands, clarifying the optimal 'sector size' of pmem devices, a clarification of the usage of the ACPI '_STA' (status) property for DIMM devices, and other minor fixes" * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (34 commits) libnvdimm, pmem: direct map legacy pmem by default libnvdimm, pmem: 'struct page' for pmem libnvdimm, pfn: 'struct page' provider infrastructure x86, pmem: clarify that ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API implies PMEM mapped WB add devm_memremap_pages mm: ZONE_DEVICE for "device memory" mm: move __phys_to_pfn and __pfn_to_phys to asm/generic/memory_model.h dax: drop size parameter to ->direct_access() nd_blk: change aperture mapping from WC to WB nvdimm: change to use generic kvfree() pmem, dax: have direct_access use __pmem annotation dax: update I/O path to do proper PMEM flushing pmem: add copy_from_iter_pmem() and clear_pmem() pmem, x86: clean up conditional pmem includes pmem: remove layer when calling arch_has_wmb_pmem() pmem, x86: move x86 PMEM API to new pmem.h header libnvdimm, e820: make CONFIG_X86_PMEM_LEGACY a tristate option pmem: switch to devm_ allocations devres: add devm_memremap libnvdimm, btt: write and validate parent_uuid ...

2015-08-21mm: make page pfmemalloc check more robustMichal Hocko1-0/+28
Commit c48a11c7ad26 ("netvm: propagate page->pfmemalloc to skb") added checks for page->pfmemalloc to __skb_fill_page_desc(): if (page->pfmemalloc && !page->mapping) skb->pfmemalloc = true; It assumes page->mapping == NULL implies that page->pfmemalloc can be trusted. However, __delete_from_page_cache() can set set page->mapping to NULL and leave page->index value alone. Due to being in union, a non-zero page->index will be interpreted as true page->pfmemalloc. So the assumption is invalid if the networking code can see such a page. And it seems it can. We have encountered this with a NFS over loopback setup when such a page is attached to a new skbuf. There is no copying going on in this case so the page confuses __skb_fill_page_desc which interprets the index as pfmemalloc flag and the network stack drops packets that have been allocated using the reserves unless they are to be queued on sockets handling the swapping which is the case here and that leads to hangs when the nfs client waits for a response from the server which has been dropped and thus never arrive. The struct page is already heavily packed so rather than finding another hole to put it in, let's do a trick instead. We can reuse the index again but define it to an impossible value (-1UL). This is the page index so it should never see the value that large. Replace all direct users of page->pfmemalloc by page_is_pfmemalloc which will hide this nastiness from unspoiled eyes. The information will get lost if somebody wants to use page->index obviously but that was the case before and the original code expected that the information should be persisted somewhere else if that is really needed (e.g. what SLAB and SLUB do).

2015-08-10mm: enhance region_is_ram() to region_intersects()Dan Williams1-1/+8
region_is_ram() is used to prevent the establishment of aliased mappings to physical "System RAM" with incompatible cache settings. However, it uses "-1" to indicate both "unknown" memory ranges (ranges not described by platform firmware) and "mixed" ranges (where the parameters describe a range that partially overlaps "System RAM"). Fix this up by explicitly tracking the "unknown" vs "mixed" resource cases and returning REGION_INTERSECTS, REGION_MIXED, or REGION_DISJOINT. This re-write also adds support for detecting when the requested region completely eclipses all of a resource. Note, the implementation treats overlaps between "unknown" and the requested memory type as REGION_INTERSECTS. Finally, other memory types can be passed in by name, for now the only usage "System RAM". Suggested-by: Luis R.

__early_pfn_to_nid() use static variables to cache recent lookups as memblock lookups are very expensive but it assumes that memory initialisation is single-threaded. Parallel initialisation of struct pages will break that assumption so this patch makes __early_pfn_to_nid() SMP-safe by requiring the caller to cache recent search information. early_pfn_to_nid() keeps the same interface but is only safe to use early in boot due to the use of a global static variable. meminit_pfn_in_nid() is an SMP-safe version that callers must maintain their own state for.

2015-06-24mm/memory-failure: introduce get_hwpoison_page() for consistent refcount handlingNaoya Horiguchi1-0/+1
memory_failure() can run in 2 different mode (specified by MF_COUNT_INCREASED) in page refcount perspective. When MF_COUNT_INCREASED is set, memory_failure() assumes that the caller takes a refcount of the target page. And if cleared, memory_failure() takes it in it's own. In current code, however, refcounting is done differently in each caller. For example, madvise_hwpoison() uses get_user_pages_fast() and hwpoison_inject() uses get_page_unless_zero(). So this inconsistent refcounting causes refcount failure especially for thp tail pages. Typical user visible effects are like memory leak or VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!page_count(page)) in isolate_lru_page(). To fix this refcounting issue, this patch introduces get_hwpoison_page() to handle thp tail pages in the same manner for each caller of hwpoison code. memory_failure() might fail to split thp and in such case it returns without completing page isolation. This is not good because PageHWPoison on the thp is still set and there's no easy way to unpoison such thps. So this patch try to roll back any action to the thp in "non anonymous thp" case and "thp split failed" case, expecting an MCE(SRAR) generated by later access afterward will properly free such thps.

2015-06-24mm: avoid tail page refcounting on non-THP compound pagesKirill A. Shutemov1-1/+1
Reintroduce 8d63d99a5dfb ("mm: avoid tail page refcounting on non-THP compound pages") after removing bogus VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() in put_unrefcounted_compound_page(). THP uses tail page refcounting to be able to split huge pages at any time. Tail page refcounting is not needed for other users of compound pages and it's harmful because of overhead. We try to exclude non-THP pages from tail page refcounting using __compound_tail_refcounted() check. It excludes most common non-THP compound pages: SL*B and hugetlb, but it doesn't catch rest of __GFP_COMP users -- drivers. And it's not only about overhead. Drivers might want to use compound pages to get refcounting semantics suitable for mapping high-order pages to userspace. But tail page refcounting breaks it. Tail page refcounting uses ->_mapcount in tail pages to store GUP pins on them. It means GUP pins would affect page_mapcount() for tail pages. It's not a problem for THP, because it never maps tail pages. But unlike THP, drivers map parts of compound pages with PTEs and it makes page_mapcount() be called for tail pages. In particular, GUP pins would shift PSS up and affect /proc/kpagecount for such pages. But, I'm not aware about anything which can lead to crash or other serious misbehaviour. Since currently all THP pages are anonymous and all drivers pages are not, we can fix the __compound_tail_refcounted() check by requiring PageAnon() to enable tail page refcounting.

2015-06-02writeback: implement unlocked_inode_to_wb transaction and use it for stat updatesTejun Heo1-1/+2
The mechanism for detecting whether an inode should switch its wb (bdi_writeback) association is now in place. This patch build the framework for the actual switching. This patch adds a new inode flag I_WB_SWITCHING, which has two functions. First, the easy one, it ensures that there's only one switching in progress for a give inode. Second, it's used as a mechanism to synchronize wb stat updates. The two stats, WB_RECLAIMABLE and WB_WRITEBACK, aren't event counters but track the current number of dirty pages and pages under writeback respectively. As such, when an inode is moved from one wb to another, the inode's portion of those stats have to be transferred together; unfortunately, this is a bit tricky as those stat updates are percpu operations which are performed without holding any lock in some places. This patch solves the problem in a similar way as memcg. Each such lockless stat updates are wrapped in transaction surrounded by unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin/end(). During normal operation, they map to rcu_read_lock/unlock(); however, if I_WB_SWITCHING is asserted, mapping->tree_lock is grabbed across the transaction. In turn, the switching path sets I_WB_SWITCHING and waits for a RCU grace period to pass before actually starting to switch, which guarantees that all stat update paths are synchronizing against mapping->tree_lock. This patch still doesn't implement the actual switching. v3: Updated on top of the recent cancel_dirty_page() updates. unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin() now nests inside mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat() to match the locking order. v2: The i_wb access transaction will be used for !stat accesses too. Function names and comments updated accordingly. s/inode_wb_stat_unlocked_{begin|end}/unlocked_inode_to_wb_{begin|end}/ s/switch_wb/switch_wbs/ Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Cc: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Cc: Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Cc: Greg Thelen <gthelen@google.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2015-06-02memcg: add per cgroup dirty page accountingGreg Thelen1-2/+4
When modifying PG_Dirty on cached file pages, update the new MEM_CGROUP_STAT_DIRTY counter. This is done in the same places where global NR_FILE_DIRTY is managed. The new memcg stat is visible in the per memcg memory.stat cgroupfs file. The most recent past attempt at this was http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cgroups/8632 The new accounting supports future efforts to add per cgroup dirty page throttling and writeback. It also helps an administrator break down a container's memory usage and provides evidence to understand memcg oom kills (the new dirty count is included in memcg oom kill messages). The ability to move page accounting between memcg (memory.move_charge_at_immigrate) makes this accounting more complicated than the global counter. The existing mem_cgroup_{begin,end}_page_stat() lock is used to serialize move accounting with stat updates. Typical update operation: memcg = mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat(page) if (TestSetPageDirty()) { [...] mem_cgroup_update_page_stat(memcg) } mem_cgroup_end_page_stat(memcg) Summary of mem_cgroup_end_page_stat() overhead: - Without CONFIG_MEMCG it's a no-op - With CONFIG_MEMCG and no inter memcg task movement, it's just rcu_read_lock() - With CONFIG_MEMCG and inter memcg task movement, it's rcu_read_lock() + spin_lock_irqsave() A memcg parameter is added to several routines because their callers now grab mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat() which returns the memcg later needed by for mem_cgroup_update_page_stat(). Because mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat() may disable interrupts, some adjustments are needed: - move __mark_inode_dirty() from __set_page_dirty() to its caller. __mark_inode_dirty() locking does not want interrupts disabled. - use spin_lock_irqsave(tree_lock) rather than spin_lock_irq() in __delete_from_page_cache(), replace_page_cache_page(), invalidate_complete_page2(), and __remove_mapping(). text data bss dec hex filename 8925147 1774832 1785856 12485835 be84cb vmlinux-!CONFIG_MEMCG-before 8925339 1774832 1785856 12486027 be858b vmlinux-!CONFIG_MEMCG-after +192 text bytes 8965977 1784992 1785856 12536825 bf4bf9 vmlinux-CONFIG_MEMCG-before 8966750 1784992 1785856 12537598 bf4efe vmlinux-CONFIG_MEMCG-after +773 text bytes Performance tests run on v4.0-rc1-36-g4f671fe2f952.

2015-06-02page_writeback: revive cancel_dirty_page() in a restricted formTejun Heo1-0/+1
cancel_dirty_page() had some issues and b9ea25152e56 ("page_writeback: clean up mess around cancel_dirty_page()") replaced it with account_page_cleaned() which makes the caller responsible for clearing the dirty bit; unfortunately, the planned changes for cgroup writeback support requires synchronization between dirty bit manipulation and stat updates. While we can open-code such synchronization in each account_page_cleaned() callsite, that's gonna be unnecessarily awkward and verbose. This patch revives cancel_dirty_page() but in a more restricted form. All it does is TestClearPageDirty() followed by account_page_cleaned() invocation if the page was dirty. This helper covers all account_page_cleaned() usages except for __delete_from_page_cache() which is a special case anyway and left alone. As this leaves no module user for account_page_cleaned(), EXPORT_SYMBOL() is dropped from it. This patch just revives cancel_dirty_page() as a trivial wrapper to replace equivalent usages and doesn't introduce any functional changes.

2015-04-15mm: new pfn_mkwrite same as page_mkwrite for VM_PFNMAPBoaz Harrosh1-0/+3
This will allow FS that uses VM_PFNMAP | VM_MIXEDMAP (no page structs) to get notified when access is a write to a read-only PFN. This can happen if we mmap() a file then first mmap-read from it to page-in a read-only PFN, than we mmap-write to the same page. We need this functionality to fix a DAX bug, where in the scenario above we fail to set ctime/mtime though we modified the file. An xfstest is attached to this patchset that shows the failure and the fix. (A DAX patch will follow) This functionality is extra important for us, because upon dirtying of a pmem page we also want to RDMA the page to a remote cluster node. We define a new pfn_mkwrite and do not reuse page_mkwrite because 1 - The name ;-) 2 - But mainly because it would take a very long and tedious audit of all page_mkwrite functions of VM_MIXEDMAP/VM_PFNMAP users. To make sure they do not now CRASH. For example current DAX code (which this is for) would crash. If we would want to reuse page_mkwrite, We will need to first patch all users, so to not-crash-on-no-page. Then enable this patch. But even if I did that I would not sleep so well at night. Adding a new vector is the safest thing to do, and is not that expensive. an extra pointer at a static function vector per driver. Also the new vector is better for performance, because else we Will call all current Kernel vectors, so to: check-ha-no-page-do-nothing and return. No need to call it from do_shared_fault because do_wp_page is called to change pte permissions anyway.

2015-04-15mm: avoid tail page refcounting on non-THP compound pagesKirill A. Shutemov1-1/+1
THP uses tail page refcounting to be able to split huge pages at any time. Tail page refcounting is not needed for other users of compound pages and it's harmful because of overhead. We try to exclude non-THP pages from tail page refcounting using __compound_tail_refcounted() check. It excludes most common non-THP compound pages: SL*B and hugetlb, but it doesn't catch rest of __GFP_COMP users -- drivers. And it's not only about overhead. Drivers might want to use compound pages to get refcounting semantics suitable for mapping high-order pages to userspace. But tail page refcounting breaks it. Tail page refcounting uses ->_mapcount in tail pages to store GUP pins on them. It means GUP pins would affect page_mapcount() for tail pages. It's not a problem for THP, because it never maps tail pages. But unlike THP, drivers map parts of compound pages with PTEs and it makes page_mapcount() be called for tail pages. In particular, GUP pins would shift PSS up and affect /proc/kpagecount for such pages. But, I'm not aware about anything which can lead to crash or other serious misbehaviour. Since currently all THP pages are anonymous and all drivers pages are not, we can fix the __compound_tail_refcounted() check by requiring PageAnon() to enable tail page refcounting.

2015-04-15mm: consolidate all page-flags helpers in <linux/page-flags.h>Kirill A. Shutemov1-81/+0
Currently we take a naive approach to page flags on compound pages - we set the flag on the page without consideration if the flag makes sense for tail page or for compound page in general. This patchset try to sort this out by defining per-flag policy on what need to be done if page-flag helper operate on compound page. The last patch in the patchset also sanitizes usege of page->mapping for tail pages. We don't define the meaning of page->mapping for tail pages. Currently it's always NULL, which can be inconsistent with head page and potentially lead to problems. For now I caught one case of illegal usage of page flags or ->mapping: sound subsystem allocates pages with __GFP_COMP and maps them with PTEs. It leads to setting dirty bit on tail pages and access to tail_page's ->mapping. I don't see any bad behaviour caused by this, but worth fixing anyway. This patchset makes more sense if you take my THP refcounting into account: we will see more compound pages mapped with PTEs and we need to define behaviour of flags on compound pages to avoid bugs. This patch (of 16): We have page-flags helper function declarations/definitions spread over several header files. Let's consolidate them in <linux/page-flags.h>. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2015-04-14mm: hide per-cpu lists in output of show_mem()Konstantin Khlebnikov1-0/+1
This makes show_mem() much less verbose on huge machines. Instead of huge and almost useless dump of counters for each per-zone per-cpu lists this patch prints the sum of these counters for each zone (free_pcp) and size of per-cpu list for current cpu (local_pcp). The filter flag SHOW_MEM_PERCPU_LISTS reverts to the old verbose mode.

2015-04-14page_writeback: clean up mess around cancel_dirty_page()Konstantin Khlebnikov1-0/+2
This patch replaces cancel_dirty_page() with a helper function account_page_cleaned() which only updates counters. It's called from truncate_complete_page() and from try_to_free_buffers() (hack for ext3). Page is locked in both cases, page-lock protects against concurrent dirtiers: see commit 2d6d7f982846 ("mm: protect set_page_dirty() from ongoing truncation"). Delete_from_page_cache() shouldn't be called for dirty pages, they must be handled by caller (either written or truncated). This patch treats final dirty accounting fixup at the end of __delete_from_page_cache() as a debug check and adds WARN_ON_ONCE() around it. If something removes dirty pages without proper handling that might be a bug and unwritten data might be lost. Hugetlbfs has no dirty pages accounting, ClearPageDirty() is enough here. cancel_dirty_page() in nfs_wb_page_cancel() is redundant. This is helper for nfs_invalidate_page() and it's called only in case complete invalidation. The mess was started in v2.6.20 after commits 46d2277c796f ("Clean up and make try_to_free_buffers() not race with dirty pages") and 3e67c0987d75 ("truncate: clear page dirtiness before running try_to_free_buffers()") first was reverted right in v2.6.20 in commit ecdfc9787fe5 ("Resurrect 'try_to_free_buffers()' VM hackery"), second in v2.6.25 commit a2b345642f53 ("Fix dirty page accounting leak with ext3 data=journal"). Custom fixes were introduced between these points. NFS in v2.6.23, commit 1b3b4a1a2deb ("NFS: Fix a write request leak in nfs_invalidate_page()"). Kludge in __delete_from_page_cache() in v2.6.24, commit 3a6927906f1b ("Do dirty page accounting when removing a page from the page cache"). Since v2.6.25 all of them are redundant.

2015-02-16mm: allow page fault handlers to perform the COWMatthew Wilcox1-0/+1
Currently COW of an XIP file is done by first bringing in a read-only mapping, then retrying the fault and copying the page. It is much more efficient to tell the fault handler that a COW is being attempted (by passing in the pre-allocated page in the vm_fault structure), and allow the handler to perform the COW operation itself. The handler cannot insert the page itself if there is already a read-only mapping at that address, so allow the handler to return VM_FAULT_LOCKED and set the fault_page to be NULL. This indicates to the MM code that the i_mmap_lock is held instead of the page lock. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <matthew.r.wilcox@intel.com> Acked-by: Kirill A.

2015-02-11pagewalk: improve vma handlingNaoya Horiguchi1-3/+12
Current implementation of page table walker has a fundamental problem in vma handling, which started when we tried to handle vma(VM_HUGETLB). Because it's done in pgd loop, considering vma boundary makes code complicated and bug-prone. From the users viewpoint, some user checks some vma-related condition to determine whether the user really does page walk over the vma. In order to solve these, this patch moves vma check outside pgd loop and introduce a new callback ->test_walk(). Signed-off-by: Naoya Horiguchi <n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com> Acked-by: Kirill A.
