kmem_cache_destroy() does not tolerate a NULL kmem_cache pointer argument
and performs a NULL-pointer dereference. This requires additional
attention and effort from developers/reviewers and forces all
kmem_cache_destroy() callers (200+ as of 4.1) to do a NULL check
if (cache)
kmem_cache_destroy(cache);
Or, otherwise, be invalid kmem_cache_destroy() users.
Tweak kmem_cache_destroy() and NULL-check the pointer there.
Proposed by Andrew Morton.

The force_kill member of struct oom_control isn't needed if an order of -1

=== Short summary ====
iov_iter_fault_in_readable() works around a really rare case and we can
avoid the deadlock it addresses in another way: disable page faults and
work around copy failures by faulting after the copy in a slow path
instead of before in a hot one.
I have a little microbenchmark that does repeated, small writes to tmpfs.
This patch speeds that micro up by 6.2%.
=== Long version ===
When doing a sys_write() we have a source buffer in userspace and then a
target file page.
If both of those are the same physical page, there is a potential deadlock
that we avoid. It would happen something like this:
1. We start the write to the file
2. Allocate page cache page and set it !Uptodate
3. Touch the userspace buffer to copy in the user data
4. Page fault (since source of the write not yet mapped)
5. Page fault code tries to lock the page and deadlocks
(more details on this below)
To avoid this, we prefault the page to guarantee that this fault does not
occur. But, this prefault comes at a cost. It is one of the most
expensive things that we do in a hot write() path (especially if we
compare it to the read path). It is working around a pretty rare case.
To fix this, it's pretty simple. We move the "prefault" code to run after
we attempt the copy. We explicitly disable page faults _during_ the copy,
detect the copy failure, then execute the "prefault" ouside of where the
page lock needs to be held.
iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic() actually already has an implicit
pagefault_disable() inside of it (at least on x86), but we add an explicit
one. I don't think we can depend on every kmap_atomic() implementation to
pagefault_disable() for eternity.
===================================================
The stack trace when this happens looks like this:
wait_on_page_bit_killable+0xc0/0xd0
__lock_page_or_retry+0x84/0xa0
filemap_fault+0x1ed/0x3d0
__do_fault+0x41/0xc0
handle_mm_fault+0x9bb/0x1210
__do_page_fault+0x17f/0x3d0
do_page_fault+0xc/0x10
page_fault+0x22/0x30
generic_perform_write+0xca/0x1a0

ext4_file_write_iter+0xe9/0x460
__vfs_write+0xaa/0xe0
vfs_write+0xa6/0x1a0
SyS_write+0x46/0xa0
entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x12/0x6a
0xffffffffffffffff
(Note, this does *NOT* happen in practice today because
the kmap_atomic() does a pagefault_disable(). The trace
above was obtained by taking out the pagefault_disable().)
You can trigger the deadlock with this little code snippet:
fd = open("foo", O_RDWR);
fdmap = mmap(NULL, len, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
write(fd, &fdmap[0], 1);

We want to know per-process workingset size for smart memory management
on userland and we use swap(ex, zram) heavily to maximize memory
efficiency so workingset includes swap as well as RSS.
On such system, if there are lots of shared anonymous pages, it's really
hard to figure out exactly how many each process consumes memory(ie, rss
+ wap) if the system has lots of shared anonymous memory(e.g, android).
This patch introduces SwapPss field on /proc/<pid>/smaps so we can get
more exact workingset size per process.
Bongkyu tested it. Result is below.
1. 50M used swap

$ adb shell cat /proc/*/smaps | grep "SwapPss:" | awk '{sum += $2} END {print sum}';

DAX is not so special: we need i_mmap_lock to protect mapping->i_mmap.
__dax_pmd_fault() uses unmap_mapping_range() shoot out zero page from
all mappings. We need to drop i_mmap_lock there to avoid lock deadlock.
Re-aquiring the lock should be fine since we check i_size after the

If two threads write-fault on the same hole at the same time, the winner
of the race will return to userspace and complete their store, only to
have the loser overwrite their store with zeroes. Fix this for now by
taking the i_mmap_sem for write instead of read, and do so outside the
call to get_block(). Now the loser of the race will see the block has
already been zeroed, and will not zero it again.
This severely limits our scalability. I have ideas for improving it, but
those can wait for a later patch.

Similar to vm_insert_pfn(), but for PMDs rather than PTEs. The 'vmf_'
prefix instead of 'vm_' prefix is intended to indicate that it returns a
VMF_ value rather than an errno (which would only have to be converted
into a VMF_ value anyway).

This series of patches adds support for using PMD page table entries to
map DAX files. We expect NV-DIMMs to start showing up that are many
gigabytes in size and the memory consumption of 4kB PTEs will be
astronomical.
The patch series leverages much of the Transparant Huge Pages
infrastructure, going so far as to borrow one of Kirill's patches from
his THP page cache series.
This patch (of 10):
Since we're going to have huge pages in page cache, we need to call adjust
file-backed VMA, which potentially can contain huge pages.
For now we call it for all VMAs.
Probably later we will need to introduce a flag to indicate that the VMA
has huge pages.

fails without this patch. Before the previous commit it gets the wrong
page, now it segfaults (which is imho better).
This is because copy_vma() wrongly assumes that if vma->vm_file == NULL
is irrelevant until the first fault which will use do_anonymous_page().
This is obviously wrong for the special mapping.

Output:
vdso pages differ: 1
vdso pages differ: 0
This is because split_vma() correctly updates ->vm_pgoff, but the logic
in insert_vm_struct() and special_mapping_fault() is absolutely broken,
so the fault at vdso + PAGE_SIZE return the 1st page. The same happens
if you simply unmap the 1st page.
special_mapping_fault() does:
pgoff = vmf->pgoff - vma->vm_pgoff;
and this is _only_ correct if vma->vm_start mmaps the first page from
->vm_private_data array.
vdso or any other user of install_special_mapping() is not anonymous,
it has the "backing storage" even if it is just the array of pages.
So we actually need to make vm_pgoff work as an offset in this array.
Note: this also allows to fix another problem: currently gdb can't access
"[vvar]" memory because in this case special_mapping_fault() doesn't work.
Now that we can use ->vm_pgoff we can implement ->access() and fix this.

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().

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"

It only covers the VM_DONTEXPAND/pgoff checks but everything below is

With DAX, pfn mapping becoming more common. The patch adjusts GUP code to
cover pfn mapping for cases when we don't need struct page to proceed.
To make it possible, let's change follow_page() code to return -EEXIST
error code if proper page table entry exists, but no corresponding struct
page. __get_user_page() would ignore the error code and move to the next
page frame.
The immediate effect of the change is working MAP_POPULATE and mlock() on
DAX mappings.

Clark stumbled over a VM_BUG_ON() in -RT which was then was removed by
Johannes in commit f371763a79d ("mm: memcontrol: fix false-positive
VM_BUG_ON() on -rt"). The comment before that patch was a tiny bit better
than it is now. While the patch claimed to fix a false-postive on -RT
this was not the case. None of the -RT folks ACKed it and it was not a
false positive report. That was a *real* problem.
This patch updates the comment that is improper because it refers to
"disabled preemption" as a consequence of that lock being taken. A
spin_lock() disables preemption, true, but in this case the code relies on
the fact that the lock _also_ disables interrupts once it is acquired.
And this is the important detail (which was checked the VM_BUG_ON()) which
needs to be pointed out. This is the hint one needs while looking at the
code. It was explained by Johannes on the list that the per-CPU variables
are protected by local_irq_save(). The BUG_ON() was helpful. This code
has been workarounded in -RT in the meantime. I wouldn't mind running
into more of those if the code in question uses *special* kind of locking
since now there is no verification (in terms of lockdep or BUG_ON()) and
therefore I bring the VM_BUG_ON() check back in.
The two functions after the comment could also have a "local_irq_save()"
dance around them in order to serialize access to the per-CPU variables.
This has been avoided because the interrupts should be off.

If a PTE is unmapped and it's dirty then it was writable recently. Due to
deferred TLB flushing, it's best to assume a writable TLB cache entry
exists. With that assumption, the TLB must be flushed before any IO can
start or the page is freed to avoid lost writes or data corruption. This
patch defers flushing of potentially writable TLBs as long as possible.

An IPI is sent to flush remote TLBs when a page is unmapped that was
potentially accesssed by other CPUs. There are many circumstances where
this happens but the obvious one is kswapd reclaiming pages belonging to a
running process as kswapd and the task are likely running on separate
CPUs.
On small machines, this is not a significant problem but as machine gets
larger with more cores and more memory, the cost of these IPIs can be
high. This patch uses a simple structure that tracks CPUs that
potentially have TLB entries for pages being unmapped. When the unmapping
is complete, the full TLB is flushed on the assumption that a refill cost
is lower than flushing individual entries.
Architectures wishing to do this must give the following guarantee.
If a clean page is unmapped and not immediately flushed, the
architecture must guarantee that a write to that linear address
from a CPU with a cached TLB entry will trap a page fault.
This is essentially what the kernel already depends on but the window is
much larger with this patch applied and is worth highlighting. The
architecture should consider whether the cost of the full TLB flush is
higher than sending an IPI to flush each individual entry. An additional
architecture helper called flush_tlb_local is required. It's a trivial
wrapper with some accounting in the x86 case.
The impact of this patch depends on the workload as measuring any benefit
requires both mapped pages co-located on the LRU and memory pressure. The
case with the biggest impact is multiple processes reading mapped pages
taken from the vm-scalability test suite. The test case uses NR_CPU
readers of mapped files that consume 10*RAM.

This is showing that the readers completed 24.40% faster with 29% less
system CPU time. From vmstats, it is known that the vanilla kernel was
interrupted roughly 900K times per second during the steady phase of the
test and the patched kernel was interrupts 180K times per second.
The impact is lower on a single socket machine.

It's still a noticeable improvement with vmstat showing interrupts went
from roughly 500K per second to 45K per second.
The patch will have no impact on workloads with no memory pressure or have
relatively few mapped pages. It will have an unpredictable impact on the
workload running on the CPU being flushed as it'll depend on how many TLB
entries need to be refilled and how long that takes. Worst case, the TLB
will be completely cleared of active entries when the target PFNs were not
resident at all.

The THP faults were not propagating the original fault address. The
latest version of the API with uffd.arg.pagefault.address is supposed to
propagate the full address through THP faults.
This was not a kernel crashing bug and it wouldn't risk to corrupt user
memory, but it would cause a SIGBUS failure because the wrong page was
being copied.
For various reasons this wasn't easily reproducible in the qemu workload,
but the strestest exposed the problem immediately.
