2020-06-09mm: don't include asm/pgtable.h if linux/mm.h is already includedMike Rapoport1-1/+0
Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2. The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once. For instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported architectures. Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils down to, e.g. static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address) { return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1); } static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address) { return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address); } These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined. For architectures that really need a custom version there is always possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic. These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table accessors to the new header. This patch (of 12): The linux/mm.h header includes <asm/pgtable.h> to allow inlining of the functions involving page table manipulations, e.g. pte_alloc() and pmd_alloc(). So, there is no point to explicitly include <asm/pgtable.h> in the files that include <linux/mm.h>. The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop: for f in $(git grep -l "include <linux/mm.h>") ; do sed -i -e '/include <asm\/pgtable.h>/ d' $f done Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport <rppt@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Brian Cain <bcain@codeaurora.org> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Chris Zankel <chris@zankel.net> Cc: "David S.

2020-06-03mm: memcontrol: charge swapin pages on instantiationJohannes Weiner1-6/+8
Right now, users that are otherwise memory controlled can easily escape their containment and allocate significant amounts of memory that they're not being charged for. That's because swap readahead pages are not being charged until somebody actually faults them into their page table. This can be exploited with MADV_WILLNEED, which triggers arbitrary readahead allocations without charging the pages. There are additional problems with the delayed charging of swap pages: 1. To implement refault/workingset detection for anonymous pages, we need to have a target LRU available at swapin time, but the LRU is not determinable until the page has been charged. 2. To implement per-cgroup LRU locking, we need page->mem_cgroup to be stable when the page is isolated from the LRU; otherwise, the locks change under us. But swapcache gets charged after it's already on the LRU, and even if we cannot isolate it ourselves (since charging is not exactly optional). The previous patch ensured we always maintain cgroup ownership records for swap pages. This patch moves the swapcache charging point from the fault handler to swapin time to fix all of the above problems. v2: simplify swapin error checking (Joonsoo) [hughd@google.com: fix livelock in __read_swap_cache_async()] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.LSU.2.11.2005212246080.8458@eggly.anvils Signed-off-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Reviewed-by: Alex Shi <alex.shi@linux.alibaba.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Cc: "Kirill A.

2020-06-03mm: memcontrol: switch to native NR_FILE_PAGES and NR_SHMEM countersJohannes Weiner1-7/+7
Memcg maintains private MEMCG_CACHE and NR_SHMEM counters. This divergence from the generic VM accounting means unnecessary code overhead, and creates a dependency for memcg that page->mapping is set up at the time of charging, so that page types can be told apart. Convert the generic accounting sites to mod_lruvec_page_state and friends to maintain the per-cgroup vmstat counters of NR_FILE_PAGES and NR_SHMEM. The page is already locked in these places, so page->mem_cgroup is stable; we only need minimal tweaks of two mem_cgroup_migrate() calls to ensure it's set up in time.

2020-06-03mm: memcontrol: convert page cache to a new mem_cgroup_charge() APIJohannes Weiner1-43/+30
The try/commit/cancel protocol that memcg uses dates back to when pages used to be uncharged upon removal from the page cache, and thus couldn't be committed before the insertion had succeeded. Nowadays, pages are uncharged when they are physically freed; it doesn't matter whether the insertion was successful or not. For the page cache, the transaction dance has become unnecessary. Introduce a mem_cgroup_charge() function that simply charges a newly allocated page to a cgroup and sets up page->mem_cgroup in one single step. If the insertion fails, the caller doesn't have to do anything but free/put the page. Then switch the page cache over to this new API. Subsequent patches will also convert anon pages, but it needs a bit more prep work. Right now, memcg depends on page->mapping being already set up at the time of charging, so that it can maintain its own MEMCG_CACHE and MEMCG_RSS counters. For anon, page->mapping is set under the same pte lock under which the page is publishd, so a single charge point that can block doesn't work there just yet. The following prep patches will replace the private memcg counters with the generic vmstat counters, thus removing the page->mapping dependency, then complete the transition to the new single-point charge API and delete the old transactional scheme. v2: leave shmem swapcache when charging fails to avoid double IO (Joonsoo) v3: rebase on preceeding shmem simplification patch Signed-off-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Reviewed-by: Alex Shi <alex.shi@linux.alibaba.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Cc: "Kirill A.

2020-06-03mm: shmem: remove rare optimization when swapin races with hole punchingJohannes Weiner1-18/+7
Commit 215c02bc33bb ("tmpfs: fix shmem_getpage_gfp() VM_BUG_ON") recognized that hole punching can race with swapin and removed the BUG_ON() for a truncated entry from the swapin path. The patch also added a swapcache deletion to optimize this rare case: Since swapin has the page locked, and free_swap_and_cache() merely trylocks, this situation can leave the page stranded in swapcache. Usually, page reclaim picks up stale swapcache pages, and the race can happen at any other time when the page is locked. (The same happens for non-shmem swapin racing with page table zapping.) The thinking here was: we already observed the race and we have the page locked, we may as well do the cleanup instead of waiting for reclaim. However, this optimization complicates the next patch which moves the cgroup charging code around. As this is just a minor speedup for a race condition that is so rare that it required a fuzzer to trigger the original BUG_ON(), it's no longer worth the complications.

2020-06-03mm: memcontrol: drop @compound parameter from memcg charging APIJohannes Weiner1-13/+9
The memcg charging API carries a boolean @compound parameter that tells whether the page we're dealing with is a hugepage. mem_cgroup_commit_charge() has another boolean @lrucare that indicates whether the page needs LRU locking or not while charging. The majority of callsites know those parameters at compile time, which results in a lot of naked "false, false" argument lists. This makes for cryptic code and is a breeding ground for subtle mistakes. Thankfully, the huge page state can be inferred from the page itself and doesn't need to be passed along. This is safe because charging completes before the page is published and somebody may split it. Simplify the callsites by removing @compound, and let memcg infer the state by using hpage_nr_pages() unconditionally. That function does PageTransHuge() to identify huge pages, which also helpfully asserts that nobody passes in tail pages by accident. The following patches will introduce a new charging API, best not to carry over unnecessary weight.

2020-04-21shmem: fix possible deadlocks on shmlock_user_lockHugh Dickins1-2/+5
Recent commit 71725ed10c40 ("mm: huge tmpfs: try to split_huge_page() when punching hole") has allowed syzkaller to probe deeper, uncovering a long-standing lockdep issue between the irq-unsafe shmlock_user_lock, the irq-safe xa_lock on mapping->i_pages, and shmem inode's info->lock which nests inside xa_lock (or tree_lock) since 4.8's shmem_uncharge(). user_shm_lock(), servicing SysV shmctl(SHM_LOCK), wants shmlock_user_lock while its caller shmem_lock() holds info->lock with interrupts disabled; but hugetlbfs_file_setup() calls user_shm_lock() with interrupts enabled, and might be interrupted by a writeback endio wanting xa_lock on i_pages. This may not risk an actual deadlock, since shmem inodes do not take part in writeback accounting, but there are several easy ways to avoid it. Requiring interrupts disabled for shmlock_user_lock would be easy, but it's a high-level global lock for which that seems inappropriate. Instead, recall that the use of info->lock to guard info->flags in shmem_lock() dates from pre-3.1 days, when races with SHMEM_PAGEIN and SHMEM_TRUNCATE could occur: nowadays it serves no purpose, the only flag added or removed is VM_LOCKED itself, and calls to shmem_lock() an inode are already serialized by the caller. Take info->lock out of the chain and the possibility of deadlock or lockdep warning goes away.

2020-04-07mm: huge tmpfs: try to split_huge_page() when punching holeHugh Dickins1-55/+43
Yang Shi writes: Currently, when truncating a shmem file, if the range is partly in a THP (start or end is in the middle of THP), the pages actually will just get cleared rather than being freed, unless the range covers the whole THP. Even though all the subpages are truncated (randomly or sequentially), the THP may still be kept in page cache. This might be fine for some usecases which prefer preserving THP, but balloon inflation is handled in base page size. So when using shmem THP as memory backend, QEMU inflation actually doesn't work as expected since it doesn't free memory. But the inflation usecase really needs to get the memory freed. (Anonymous THP will also not get freed right away, but will be freed eventually when all subpages are unmapped: whereas shmem THP still stays in page cache.) Split THP right away when doing partial hole punch, and if split fails just clear the page so that read of the punched area will return zeroes. Hugh Dickins adds: Our earlier "team of pages" huge tmpfs implementation worked in the way that Yang Shi proposes; and we have been using this patch to continue to split the huge page when hole-punched or truncated, since converting over to the compound page implementation. Although huge tmpfs gives out huge pages when available, if the user specifically asks to truncate or punch a hole (perhaps to free memory, perhaps to reduce the memcg charge), then the filesystem should do so as best it can, splitting the huge page. That is not always possible: any additional reference to the huge page prevents split_huge_page() from succeeding, so the result can be flaky. But in practice it works successfully enough that we've not seen any problem from that. Add shmem_punch_compound() to encapsulate the decision of when a split is needed, and doing the split if so. Using this simplifies the flow in shmem_undo_range(); and the first (trylock) pass does not need to do any page clearing on failure, because the second pass will either succeed or do that clearing. Following the example of zero_user_segment() when clearing a partial page, add flush_dcache_page() and set_page_dirty() when clearing a hole - though I'm not certain that either is needed. But: split_huge_page() would be sure to fail if shmem_undo_range()'s pagevec holds further references to the huge page. The easiest way to fix that is for find_get_entries() to return early, as soon as it has put one compound head or tail into the pagevec. At first this felt like a hack; but on examination, this convention better suits all its callers - or will do, if the slight one-page-per-pagevec slowdown in shmem_unlock_mapping() and shmem_seek_hole_data() is transformed into a 512-page-per-pagevec speedup by checking for compound pages there.

Note that these warnings (or silent skipping) happen before the dead-store elimination optimization phase, so even when the automatic initializations are later elided in favor of direct initializations, the warnings remain. To avoid these problems, move such variables into the "case" where they're used or lift them up into the main function body. mm/shmem.c: In function `shmem_getpage_gfp': mm/shmem.c:1816:10: warning: statement will never be executed [-Wswitch-unreachable] 1816 | loff_t i_size; | ^~~~~~ [1] https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44916 Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Reviewed-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Alexander Potapenko <glider@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200220062312.69165-1-keescook@chromium.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2020-04-07mm, thp: track fallbacks due to failed memcg charges separatelyDavid Rientjes1-1/+3
The thp_fault_fallback and thp_file_fallback vmstats are incremented if either the hugepage allocation fails through the page allocator or the hugepage charge fails through mem cgroup. This patch leaves this field untouched but adds two new fields, thp_{fault,file}_fallback_charge, which is incremented only when the mem cgroup charge fails. This distinguishes between attempted hugepage allocations that fail due to fragmentation (or low memory conditions) and those that fail due to mem cgroup limits. That can be used to determine the impact of fragmentation on the system by excluding faults that failed due to memcg usage.

2020-01-13mm/shmem.c: thp, shmem: fix conflict of above-47bit hint address and PMD ↵Kirill A. Shutemov1-3/+4
alignment Shmem/tmpfs tries to provide THP-friendly mappings if huge pages are enabled. But it doesn't work well with above-47bit hint address. Normally, the kernel doesn't create userspace mappings above 47-bit, even if the machine allows this (such as with 5-level paging on x86-64). Not all user space is ready to handle wide addresses. It's known that at least some JIT compilers use higher bits in pointers to encode their information. Userspace can ask for allocation from full address space by specifying hint address (with or without MAP_FIXED) above 47-bits. If the application doesn't need a particular address, but wants to allocate from whole address space it can specify -1 as a hint address. Unfortunately, this trick breaks THP alignment in shmem/tmp: shmem_get_unmapped_area() would not try to allocate PMD-aligned area if *any* hint address specified. This can be fixed by requesting the aligned area if the we failed to allocated at user-specified hint address. The request with inflated length will also take the user-specified hint address. This way we will not lose an allocation request from the full address space.

2019-12-01mm: shmem: use proper gfp flags for shmem_writepage()Yang Shi1-1/+2
The shmem_writepage() uses GFP_ATOMIC to allocate swap cache. GFP_ATOMIC used to mean __GFP_HIGH, but now it means __GFP_HIGH | __GFP_ATOMIC | __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. However, shmem_writepage() should write out to swap only in response to memory pressure, so __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM looks useless since the caller may be kswapd itself or in direct reclaim already. In addition, XArray node allocations from PF_MEMALLOC contexts could completely exhaust the page allocator, __GFP_NOMEMALLOC stops emergency reserves from being allocated. Here just copy the gfp flags used by add_to_swap(). Hugh: "a cleanup to make the two calls look the same when they don't need to be different (whereas the call from __read_swap_cache_async() rightly uses a lower priority gfp)".

2019-12-01mm, memfd: fix COW issue on MAP_PRIVATE and F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE mappingsNicolas Geoffray1-4/+7
F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE has unexpected behavior when used with MAP_PRIVATE: A private mapping created after the memfd file that gets sealed with F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE loses the copy-on-write at fork behavior, meaning children and parent share the same memory, even though the mapping is private. The reason for this is due to the code below: static int shmem_mmap(struct file *file, struct vm_area_struct *vma) { struct shmem_inode_info *info = SHMEM_I(file_inode(file)); if (info->seals & F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE) { /* * New PROT_WRITE and MAP_SHARED mmaps are not allowed when * "future write" seal active. */ if ((vma->vm_flags & VM_SHARED) && (vma->vm_flags & VM_WRITE)) return -EPERM; /* * Since the F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE seals allow for a MAP_SHARED * read-only mapping, take care to not allow mprotect to revert * protections. */ vma->vm_flags &= ~(VM_MAYWRITE); } ... } And for the mm to know if a mapping is copy-on-write: static inline bool is_cow_mapping(vm_flags_t flags) { return (flags & (VM_SHARED | VM_MAYWRITE)) == VM_MAYWRITE; } The patch fixes the issue by making the mprotect revert protection happen only for shared mappings. For private mappings, using mprotect will have no effect on the seal behavior. The F_SEAL_FUTURE_WRITE feature was introduced in v5.1 so v5.3.x stable kernels would need a backport.

2019-09-28Merge branch 'hugepage-fallbacks' (hugepatch patches from David Rientjes)Linus Torvalds1-1/+1
Merge hugepage allocation updates from David Rientjes: "We (mostly Linus, Andrea, and myself) have been discussing offlist how to implement a sane default allocation strategy for hugepages on NUMA platforms. With these reverts in place, the page allocator will happily allocate a remote hugepage immediately rather than try to make a local hugepage available. This incurs a substantial performance degradation when memory compaction would have otherwise made a local hugepage available. This series reverts those reverts and attempts to propose a more sane default allocation strategy specifically for hugepages. Andrea acknowledges this is likely to fix the swap storms that he originally reported that resulted in the patches that removed __GFP_THISNODE from hugepage allocations. The immediate goal is to return 5.3 to the behavior the kernel has implemented over the past several years so that remote hugepages are not immediately allocated when local hugepages could have been made available because the increased access latency is untenable. The next goal is to introduce a sane default allocation strategy for hugepages allocations in general regardless of the configuration of the system so that we prevent thrashing of local memory when compaction is unlikely to succeed and can prefer remote hugepages over remote native pages when the local node is low on memory." Note on timing: this reverts the hugepage VM behavior changes that got introduced fairly late in the 5.3 cycle, and that fixed a huge performance regression for certain loads that had been around since 4.18. Andrea had this note: "The regression of 4.18 was that it was taking hours to start a VM where 3.10 was only taking a few seconds, I reported all the details on lkml when it was finally tracked down in August 2018. https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20180820032640.9896-2-aarcange@redhat.com/ __GFP_THISNODE in MADV_HUGEPAGE made the above enterprise vfio workload degrade like in the "current upstream" above. And it still would have been that bad as above until 5.3-rc5" where the bad behavior ends up happening as you fill up a local node, and without that change, you'd get into the nasty swap storm behavior due to compaction working overtime to make room for more memory on the nodes. As a result 5.3 got the two performance fix reverts in rc5. However, David Rientjes then noted that those performance fixes in turn regressed performance for other loads - although not quite to the same degree. He suggested reverting the reverts and instead replacing them with two small changes to how hugepage allocations are done (patch descriptions rephrased by me): - "avoid expensive reclaim when compaction may not succeed": just admit that the allocation failed when you're trying to allocate a huge-page and compaction wasn't successful. - "allow hugepage fallback to remote nodes when madvised": when that node-local huge-page allocation failed, retry without forcing the local node. but by then I judged it too late to replace the fixes for a 5.3 release. So 5.3 was released with behavior that harked back to the pre-4.18 logic. But now we're in the merge window for 5.4, and we can see if this alternate model fixes not just the horrendous swap storm behavior, but also restores the performance regression that the late reverts caused. Fingers crossed. * emailed patches from David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com>: mm, page_alloc: allow hugepage fallback to remote nodes when madvised mm, page_alloc: avoid expensive reclaim when compaction may not succeed Revert "Revert "Revert "mm, thp: consolidate THP gfp handling into alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask"" Revert "Revert "mm, thp: restore node-local hugepage allocations""

Since commit a8282608c88e ("Revert "mm, thp: restore node-local hugepage allocations"") is reverted in this series, it is better to restore the previous 5.2 behavior between the thp allocation and the page allocator rather than to attempt any consolidation or cleanup for a policy that is now reverted. It's less risky during an rc cycle and subsequent patches in this series further modify the same policy that the pre-5.3 behavior implements. Consolidation and cleanup can be done subsequent to a sane default page allocation strategy, so this patch reverts a cleanup done on a strategy that is now reverted and thus is the least risky option.

Large parts of this are "inspired" by Kirill's patch https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20170126115819.58875-2-kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com/ Kirill and Huang Ying contributed several fixes.

2019-09-12vfs: Convert ramfs, shmem, tmpfs, devtmpfs, rootfs to use the new mount APIDavid Howells1-79/+108
Convert the ramfs, shmem, tmpfs, devtmpfs and rootfs filesystems to the new internal mount API as the old one will be obsoleted and removed. This allows greater flexibility in communication of mount parameters between userspace, the VFS and the filesystem. See Documentation/filesystems/mount_api.txt for more information. Note that tmpfs is slightly tricky as it can contain embedded commas, so it can't be trivially split up using strsep() to break on commas in generic_parse_monolithic(). Instead, tmpfs has to supply its own generic parser. However, if tmpfs changes, then devtmpfs and rootfs, which are wrappers around tmpfs or ramfs, must change too - and thus so must ramfs, so these had to be converted also.

2019-09-12shmem_parse_options(): use a separate structure to keep the resultsAl Viro1-43/+67
... and copy the data from it into sbinfo in the callers. For use by remount we need to keep track whether there'd been options setting max_inodes, max_blocks and huge resp. and do the sanity checks (and copying) only if such options had been seen. uid/gid/mode is ignored by remount and NULL mpol is already explicitly treated as "ignore it", so we don't need to keep track of those. Note: theoretically, mpol_parse_string() may return NULL not in case of error (for default policy), so the assumption that NULL mpol means "change nothing" is incorrect. However, that's the mainline behaviour and any changes belong in a separate patch. If we go for that, we'll need to keep track of having encountered mpol= option too.

2019-08-13Revert "Revert "mm, thp: consolidate THP gfp handling into ↵Andrea Arcangeli1-1/+1
alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask"" Patch series "reapply: relax __GFP_THISNODE for MADV_HUGEPAGE mappings". The fixes for what was originally reported as "pathological THP behavior" we rightfully reverted to be sure not to introduced regressions at end of a merge window after a severe regression report from the kernel bot. We can safely re-apply them now that we had time to analyze the problem. The mm process worked fine, because the good fixes were eventually committed upstream without excessive delay. The regression reported by the kernel bot however forced us to revert the good fixes to be sure not to introduce regressions and to give us the time to analyze the issue further. The silver lining is that this extra time allowed to think more at this issue and also plan for a future direction to improve things further in terms of THP NUMA locality. This patch (of 2): This reverts commit 356ff8a9a78fb35d ("Revert "mm, thp: consolidate THP gfp handling into alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask"). So it reapplies 89c83fb539f954 ("mm, thp: consolidate THP gfp handling into alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask"). Consolidation of the THP allocation flags at the same place was meant to be a clean up to easier handle otherwise scattered code which is imposing a maintenance burden. There were no real problems observed with the gfp mask consolidation but the reversion was rushed through without a larger consensus regardless. This patch brings the consolidation back because this should make the long term maintainability easier as well as it should allow future changes to be less error prone.

2019-07-18mm: thp: fix false negative of shmem vma's THP eligibilityYang Shi1-0/+3
Commit 7635d9cbe832 ("mm, thp, proc: report THP eligibility for each vma") introduced THPeligible bit for processes' smaps. But, when checking the eligibility for shmem vma, __transparent_hugepage_enabled() is called to override the result from shmem_huge_enabled(). It may result in the anonymous vma's THP flag override shmem's. For example, running a simple test which create THP for shmem, but with anonymous THP disabled, when reading the process's smaps, it may show: 7fc92ec00000-7fc92f000000 rw-s 00000000 00:14 27764 /dev/shm/test Size: 4096 kB ... [snip] ... ShmemPmdMapped: 4096 kB ... [snip] ... THPeligible: 0 And, /proc/meminfo does show THP allocated and PMD mapped too: ShmemHugePages: 4096 kB ShmemPmdMapped: 4096 kB This doesn't make too much sense. The shmem objects should be treated separately from anonymous THP. Calling shmem_huge_enabled() with checking MMF_DISABLE_THP sounds good enough. And, we could skip stack and dax vma check since we already checked if the vma is shmem already. Also check if vma is suitable for THP by calling transhuge_vma_suitable(). And minor fix to smaps output format and documentation.
