2018-09-20mm: slowly shrink slabs with a relatively small number of objectsRoman Gushchin1-0/+11
9092c71bb724 ("mm: use sc->priority for slab shrink targets") changed the way that the target slab pressure is calculated and made it priority-based: delta = freeable >> priority; delta *= 4; do_div(delta, shrinker->seeks); The problem is that on a default priority (which is 12) no pressure is applied at all, if the number of potentially reclaimable objects is less than 4096 (1<<12). This causes the last objects on slab caches of no longer used cgroups to (almost) never get reclaimed. It's obviously a waste of memory. It can be especially painful, if these stale objects are holding a reference to a dying cgroup. Slab LRU lists are reparented on memcg offlining, but corresponding objects are still holding a reference to the dying cgroup. If we don't scan these objects, the dying cgroup can't go away. Most likely, the parent cgroup hasn't any directly charged objects, only remaining objects from dying children cgroups. So it can easily hold a reference to hundreds of dying cgroups. If there are no big spikes in memory pressure, and new memory cgroups are created and destroyed periodically, this causes the number of dying cgroups grow steadily, causing a slow-ish and hard-to-detect memory "leak". It's not a real leak, as the memory can be eventually reclaimed, but it could not happen in a real life at all. I've seen hosts with a steadily climbing number of dying cgroups, which doesn't show any signs of a decline in months, despite the host is loaded with a production workload. It is an obvious waste of memory, and to prevent it, let's apply a minimal pressure even on small shrinker lists. E.g. if there are freeable objects, let's scan at least min(freeable, scan_batch) objects. This fix significantly improves a chance of a dying cgroup to be reclaimed, and together with some previous patches stops the steady growth of the dying cgroups number on some of our hosts.

2018-09-20mm: shmem.c: Correctly annotate new inodes for lockdepJoel Fernandes (Google)1-0/+2
Directories and inodes don't necessarily need to be in the same lockdep class. For ex, hugetlbfs splits them out too to prevent false positives in lockdep. Annotate correctly after new inode creation. If its a directory inode, it will be put into a different class.

2018-09-13mm: get rid of vmacache_flush_all() entirelyLinus Torvalds2-40/+2
Jann Horn points out that the vmacache_flush_all() function is not only potentially expensive, it's buggy too. It also happens to be entirely unnecessary, because the sequence number overflow case can be avoided by simply making the sequence number be 64-bit. That doesn't even grow the data structures in question, because the other adjacent fields are already 64-bit. So simplify the whole thing by just making the sequence number overflow case go away entirely, which gets rid of all the complications and makes the code faster too. Win-win.

2018-09-04mm/hugetlb: filter out hugetlb pages if HUGEPAGE migration is not supported.Aneesh Kumar K.V2-1/+6
When scanning for movable pages, filter out Hugetlb pages if hugepage migration is not supported. Without this we hit infinte loop in __offline_pages() where we do pfn = scan_movable_pages(start_pfn, end_pfn); if (pfn) { /* We have movable pages */ ret = do_migrate_range(pfn, end_pfn); goto repeat; } Fix this by checking hugepage_migration_supported both in has_unmovable_pages which is the primary backoff mechanism for page offlining and for consistency reasons also into scan_movable_pages because it doesn't make any sense to return a pfn to non-migrateable huge page.

2018-09-04kmemleak: always register debugfs fileVincent Whitchurch1-4/+5
If kmemleak built in to the kernel, but is disabled by default, the debugfs file is never registered. Because of this, it is not possible to find out if the kernel is built with kmemleak support by checking for the presence of this file. To allow this, always register the file. After this patch, if the file doesn't exist, kmemleak is not available in the kernel. If writing "scan" or any other value than "clear" to this file results in EBUSY, then kmemleak is available but is disabled by default and can be activated via the kernel command line. Catalin: "that's also consistent with a late disabling of kmemleak when the debugfs entry sticks around."

Commit 93065ac753e4 ("mm, oom: distinguish blockable mode for mmu notifiers") has added an ability to skip over vmas with blockable mmu notifiers. This however didn't call tlb_finish_mmu as it should. As a result inc_tlb_flush_pending has been called without its pairing dec_tlb_flush_pending and all callers mm_tlb_flush_pending would flush even though this is not really needed. This alone is not harmful and it seems there shouldn't be any such callers for oom victims at all but there is no real reason to skip tlb_finish_mmu on early skip either so call it.

2018-09-04mm: memcontrol: print proper OOM header when no eligible victim leftJohannes Weiner2-5/+10
When the memcg OOM killer runs out of killable tasks, it currently prints a WARN with no further OOM context. This has caused some user confusion. Warnings indicate a kernel problem. In a reported case, however, the situation was triggered by a nonsensical memcg configuration (hard limit set to 0). But without any VM context this wasn't obvious from the report, and it took some back and forth on the mailing list to identify what is actually a trivial issue. Handle this OOM condition like we handle it in the global OOM killer: dump the full OOM context and tell the user we ran out of tasks. This way the user can identify misconfigurations easily by themselves and rectify the problem - without having to go through the hassle of running into an obscure but unsettling warning, finding the appropriate kernel mailing list and waiting for a kernel developer to remote-analyze that the memcg configuration caused this. If users cannot make sense of why the OOM killer was triggered or why it failed, they will still report it to the mailing list, we know that from experience. So in case there is an actual kernel bug causing this, kernel developers will very likely hear about it.

2018-08-31blkcg: delay blkg destruction until after writeback has finishedDennis Zhou (Facebook)1-0/+5
Currently, blkcg destruction relies on a sequence of events: 1. Destruction starts. blkcg_css_offline() is called and blkgs release their reference to the blkcg. This immediately destroys the cgwbs (writeback). 2. With blkgs giving up their reference, the blkcg ref count should become zero and eventually call blkcg_css_free() which finally frees the blkcg. Jiufei Xue reported that there is a race between blkcg_bio_issue_check() and cgroup_rmdir(). To remedy this, blkg destruction becomes contingent on the completion of all writeback associated with the blkcg. A count of the number of cgwbs is maintained and once that goes to zero, blkg destruction can follow. This should prevent premature blkg destruction related to writeback. The new process for blkcg cleanup is as follows: 1. Destruction starts. blkcg_css_offline() is called which offlines writeback. Blkg destruction is delayed on the cgwb_refcnt count to avoid punting potentially large amounts of outstanding writeback to root while maintaining any ongoing policies. Here, the base cgwb_refcnt is put back. 2. When the cgwb_refcnt becomes zero, blkcg_destroy_blkgs() is called and handles destruction of blkgs. This is where the css reference held by each blkg is released. 3. Once the blkcg ref count goes to zero, blkcg_css_free() is called. This finally frees the blkg. It seems in the past blk-throttle didn't do the most understandable things with taking data from a blkg while associating with current. So, the simplification and unification of what blk-throttle is doing caused this.

2018-08-25mm/cow: don't bother write protecting already write-protected pagesLinus Torvalds1-1/+1
This is not normally noticeable, but repeated forks are unnecessarily expensive because they repeatedly dirty the parent page tables during the page table copy operation. It's trivial to just avoid write protecting the page table entry if it was already not writable. This patch was inspired by https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200447 which points to an ancient "waste time re-doing fork" issue in the presence of lots of signals. That bug was fixed by Eric Biederman's signal handling series culminating in commit c3ad2c3b02e9 ("signal: Don't restart fork when signals come in"), but the unnecessary work for repeated forks is still work just fixing, particularly since the fix is trivial.

2018-08-23mm: Change return type int to vm_fault_t for fault handlersSouptick Joarder7-81/+83
Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler. For now, this is just documenting that the function returns a VM_FAULT value rather than an errno. Once all instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a distinct type. Ref-> commit 1c8f422059ae ("mm: change return type to vm_fault_t") The aim is to change the return type of finish_fault() and handle_mm_fault() to vm_fault_t type. As part of that clean up return type of all other recursively called functions have been changed to vm_fault_t type. The places from where handle_mm_fault() is getting invoked will be change to vm_fault_t type but in a separate patch. vmf_error() is the newly introduce inline function in 4.17-rc6.

2018-08-23mm: soft-offline: close the race against page allocationNaoya Horiguchi3-6/+52
A process can be killed with SIGBUS(BUS_MCEERR_AR) when it tries to allocate a page that was just freed on the way of soft-offline. This is undesirable because soft-offline (which is about corrected error) is less aggressive than hard-offline (which is about uncorrected error), and we can make soft-offline fail and keep using the page for good reason like "system is busy." Two main changes of this patch are: - setting migrate type of the target page to MIGRATE_ISOLATE. As done in free_unref_page_commit(), this makes kernel bypass pcplist when freeing the page. So we can assume that the page is in freelist just after put_page() returns, - setting PG_hwpoison on free page under zone->lock which protects freelists, so this allows us to avoid setting PG_hwpoison on a page that is decided to be allocated soon.

2018-08-23mm: fix race on soft-offlining free huge pagesNaoya Horiguchi3-14/+21
Patch series "mm: soft-offline: fix race against page allocation". Xishi recently reported the issue about race on reusing the target pages of soft offlining. Discussion and analysis showed that we need make sure that setting PG_hwpoison should be done in the right place under zone->lock for soft offline. 1/2 handles free hugepage's case, and 2/2 hanldes free buddy page's case. This patch (of 2): There's a race condition between soft offline and hugetlb_fault which causes unexpected process killing and/or hugetlb allocation failure. The process killing is caused by the following flow: CPU 0 CPU 1 CPU 2 soft offline get_any_page // find the hugetlb is free mmap a hugetlb file page fault ... hugetlb_fault hugetlb_no_page alloc_huge_page // succeed soft_offline_free_page // set hwpoison flag mmap the hugetlb file page fault ... hugetlb_fault hugetlb_no_page find_lock_page return VM_FAULT_HWPOISON mm_fault_error do_sigbus // kill the process The hugetlb allocation failure comes from the following flow: CPU 0 CPU 1 mmap a hugetlb file // reserve all free page but don't fault-in soft offline get_any_page // find the hugetlb is free soft_offline_free_page // set hwpoison flag dissolve_free_huge_page // fail because all free hugepages are reserved page fault ... hugetlb_fault hugetlb_no_page alloc_huge_page ... dequeue_huge_page_node_exact // ignore hwpoisoned hugepage // and finally fail due to no-mem The root cause of this is that current soft-offline code is written based on an assumption that PageHWPoison flag should be set at first to avoid accessing the corrupted data. This makes sense for memory_failure() or hard offline, but does not for soft offline because soft offline is about corrected (not uncorrected) error and is safe from data lost. This patch changes soft offline semantics where it sets PageHWPoison flag only after containment of the error page completes successfully.

2018-08-23mm/tlb, x86/mm: Support invalidating TLB caches for RCU_TABLE_FREEPeter Zijlstra1-0/+18
Jann reported that x86 was missing required TLB invalidates when he hit the !*batch slow path in tlb_remove_table(). This is indeed the case; RCU_TABLE_FREE does not provide TLB (cache) invalidates, the PowerPC-hash where this code originated and the Sparc-hash where this was subsequently used did not need that. ARM which later used this put an explicit TLB invalidate in their __p*_free_tlb() functions, and PowerPC-radix followed that example. But when we hooked up x86 we failed to consider this. Fix this by (optionally) hooking tlb_remove_table() into the TLB invalidate code. NOTE: s390 was also needing something like this and might now be able to use the generic code again.

Commit cafa0010cd51 ("Raise the minimum required gcc version to 4.6") recently exposed a brittle part of the build for supporting non-gcc compilers. Both Clang and ICC define __GNUC__, __GNUC_MINOR__, and __GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__ for quick compatibility with code bases that haven't added compiler specific checks for __clang__ or __INTEL_COMPILER. This is brittle, as they happened to get compatibility by posing as a certain version of GCC. This broke when upgrading the minimal version of GCC required to build the kernel, to a version above what ICC and Clang claim to be. Rather than always including compiler-gcc.h then undefining or redefining macros in compiler-intel.h or compiler-clang.h, let's separate out the compiler specific macro definitions into mutually exclusive headers, do more proper compiler detection, and keep shared definitions in compiler_types.h.

2018-08-22/proc/meminfo: add percpu populated pages countDennis Zhou (Facebook)1-0/+29
Currently, percpu memory only exposes allocation and utilization information via debugfs. This more or less is only really useful for understanding the fragmentation and allocation information at a per-chunk level with a few global counters. This is also gated behind a config. BPF and cgroup, for example, have seen an increase in use causing increased use of percpu memory. Let's make it easier for someone to identify how much memory is being used. This patch adds the "Percpu" stat to meminfo to more easily look up how much percpu memory is in use. This number includes the cost for all allocated backing pages and not just insight at the per a unit, per chunk level. Metadata is excluded. I think excluding metadata is fair because the backing memory scales with the numbere of cpus and can quickly outweigh the metadata. It also makes this calculation light.

2018-08-22mm, oom: introduce memory.oom.groupRoman Gushchin2-0/+123
For some workloads an intervention from the OOM killer can be painful. Killing a random task can bring the workload into an inconsistent state. Historically, there are two common solutions for this problem: 1) enabling panic_on_oom, 2) using a userspace daemon to monitor OOMs and kill all outstanding processes. Both approaches have their downsides: rebooting on each OOM is an obvious waste of capacity, and handling all in userspace is tricky and requires a userspace agent, which will monitor all cgroups for OOMs. In most cases an in-kernel after-OOM cleaning-up mechanism can eliminate the necessity of enabling panic_on_oom. Also, it can simplify the cgroup management for userspace applications. This commit introduces a new knob for cgroup v2 memory controller: memory.oom.group. The knob determines whether the cgroup should be treated as an indivisible workload by the OOM killer. If set, all tasks belonging to the cgroup or to its descendants (if the memory cgroup is not a leaf cgroup) are killed together or not at all. To determine which cgroup has to be killed, we do traverse the cgroup hierarchy from the victim task's cgroup up to the OOMing cgroup (or root) and looking for the highest-level cgroup with memory.oom.group set. Tasks with the OOM protection (oom_score_adj set to -1000) are treated as an exception and are never killed. This patch doesn't change the OOM victim selection algorithm.

2018-08-22mm, oom: refactor oom_kill_process()Roman Gushchin1-58/+65
Patch series "introduce memory.oom.group", v2. This is a tiny implementation of cgroup-aware OOM killer, which adds an ability to kill a cgroup as a single unit and so guarantee the integrity of the workload. Although it has only a limited functionality in comparison to what now resides in the mm tree (it doesn't change the victim task selection algorithm, doesn't look at memory stas on cgroup level, etc), it's also much simpler and more straightforward. So, hopefully, we can avoid having long debates here, as we had with the full implementation. As it doesn't prevent any futher development, and implements an useful and complete feature, it looks as a sane way forward. This patch (of 2): oom_kill_process() consists of two logical parts: the first one is responsible for considering task's children as a potential victim and printing the debug information. The second half is responsible for sending SIGKILL to all tasks sharing the mm struct with the given victim. This commit splits oom_kill_process() with an intention to re-use the the second half: __oom_kill_process(). The cgroup-aware OOM killer will kill multiple tasks belonging to the victim cgroup. We don't need to print the debug information for the each task, as well as play with task selection (considering task's children), so we can't use the existing oom_kill_process().

2018-08-22mm/page_alloc: Introduce free_area_init_core_hotplugOscar Salvador2-35/+59
Currently, whenever a new node is created/re-used from the memhotplug path, we call free_area_init_node()->free_area_init_core(). But there is some code that we do not really need to run when we are coming from such path. free_area_init_core() performs the following actions: 1) Initializes pgdat internals, such as spinlock, waitqueues and more. 2) Account # nr_all_pages and # nr_kernel_pages. These values are used later on when creating hash tables. 3) Account number of managed_pages per zone, substracting dma_reserved and memmap pages. 4) Initializes some fields of the zone structure data 5) Calls init_currently_empty_zone to initialize all the freelists 6) Calls memmap_init to initialize all pages belonging to certain zone When called from memhotplug path, free_area_init_core() only performs actions #1 and #4. Action #2 is pointless as the zones do not have any pages since either the node was freed, or we are re-using it, eitherway all zones belonging to this node should have 0 pages. For the same reason, action #3 results always in manages_pages being 0. Action #5 and #6 are performed later on when onlining the pages: online_pages()->move_pfn_range_to_zone()->init_currently_empty_zone() online_pages()->move_pfn_range_to_zone()->memmap_init_zone() This patch does two things: First, moves the node/zone initializtion to their own function, so it allows us to create a small version of free_area_init_core, where we only perform: 1) Initialization of pgdat internals, such as spinlock, waitqueues and more 4) Initialization of some fields of the zone structure data These two functions are: pgdat_init_internals() and zone_init_internals(). The second thing this patch does, is to introduce free_area_init_core_hotplug(), the memhotplug version of free_area_init_core(): Currently, we call free_area_init_node() from the memhotplug path. In there, we set some pgdat's fields, and call calculate_node_totalpages(). calculate_node_totalpages() calculates the # of pages the node has. Since the node is either new, or we are re-using it, the zones belonging to this node should not have any pages, so there is no point to calculate this now. Actually, we re-set these values to 0 later on with the calls to: reset_node_managed_pages() reset_node_present_pages() The # of pages per node and the # of pages per zone will be calculated when onlining the pages: online_pages()->move_pfn_range()->move_pfn_range_to_zone()->resize_zone_range() online_pages()->move_pfn_range()->move_pfn_range_to_zone()->resize_pgdat_range() Also, since free_area_init_core/free_area_init_node will now only get called during early init, let us replace __paginginit with __init, so their code gets freed up.

Patch series "Refactor free_area_init_core and add free_area_init_core_hotplug", v6. This patchset does three things: 1) Clean up/refactor free_area_init_core/free_area_init_node by moving the ifdefery out of the functions. 2) Move the pgdat/zone initialization in free_area_init_core to its own function. 3) Introduce free_area_init_core_hotplug, a small subset of free_area_init_core, which is only called from memhotlug code path. In this way, we have: free_area_init_core: called during early initialization free_area_init_core_hotplug: called whenever a new node is allocated/re-used (memhotplug path) This patch (of 5): Moving the #ifdefs out of the function makes it easier to follow.

2018-08-22memcg: reduce memcg tree traversals for stats collectionShakeel Butt1-77/+73
Currently cgroup-v1's memcg_stat_show traverses the memcg tree ~17 times to collect the stats while cgroup-v2's memory_stat_show traverses the memcg tree thrice. On a large machine, a couple thousand memcgs is very normal and if the churn is high and memcgs stick around during to several reasons, tens of thousands of nodes in memcg tree can exist. This patch has refactored and shared the stat collection code between cgroup-v1 and cgroup-v2 and has reduced the tree traversal to just one. I ran a simple benchmark which reads the root_mem_cgroup's stat file 1000 times in the presense of 2500 memcgs on cgroup-v1. The results are: Without the patch: $ time ./read-root-stat-1000-times real 0m1.663s user 0m0.000s sys 0m1.660s With the patch: $ time ./read-root-stat-1000-times real 0m0.468s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.467s Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180724224635.143944-1-shakeelb@google.com Signed-off-by: Shakeel Butt <shakeelb@google.com> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Vladimir Davydov <vdavydov.dev@gmail.com> Cc: Greg Thelen <gthelen@google.com> Cc: Bruce Merry <bmerry@ska.ac.za> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2018-08-22mm/oom_kill.c: clean up oom_reap_task_mm()Michal Hocko1-8/+16
Andrew has noticed some inconsistencies in oom_reap_task_mm. Notably - Undocumented return value. - comment "failed to reap part..." is misleading - sounds like it's referring to something which happened in the past, is in fact referring to something which might happen in the future. - fails to call trace_finish_task_reaping() in one case - code duplication. - Increases mmap_sem hold time a little by moving trace_finish_task_reaping() inside the locked region. So sue me ;) - Sharing the finish: path means that the trace event won't distinguish between the two sources of finishing. Add a short explanation for the return value and fix the rest by reorganizing the function a bit to have unified function exit paths.

2018-08-22mm, oom: remove oom_lock from oom_reaperMichal Hocko2-28/+4
oom_reaper used to rely on the oom_lock since e2fe14564d33 ("oom_reaper: close race with exiting task"). We do not really need the lock anymore though. 212925802454 ("mm: oom: let oom_reap_task and exit_mmap run concurrently") has removed serialization with the exit path based on the mm reference count and so we do not really rely on the oom_lock anymore. Tetsuo was arguing that at least MMF_OOM_SKIP should be set under the lock to prevent from races when the page allocator didn't manage to get the freed (reaped) memory in __alloc_pages_may_oom but it sees the flag later on and move on to another victim. Although this is possible in principle let's wait for it to actually happen in real life before we make the locking more complex again. Therefore remove the oom_lock for oom_reaper paths (both exit_mmap and oom_reap_task_mm). The reaper serializes with exit_mmap by mmap_sem + MMF_OOM_SKIP flag. There is no synchronization with out_of_memory path now.

2018-08-22mm, oom: distinguish blockable mode for mmu notifiersMichal Hocko4-22/+35
There are several blockable mmu notifiers which might sleep in mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start and that is a problem for the oom_reaper because it needs to guarantee a forward progress so it cannot depend on any sleepable locks. Currently we simply back off and mark an oom victim with blockable mmu notifiers as done after a short sleep. That can result in selecting a new oom victim prematurely because the previous one still hasn't torn its memory down yet. We can do much better though. Even if mmu notifiers use sleepable locks there is no reason to automatically assume those locks are held. Moreover majority of notifiers only care about a portion of the address space and there is absolutely zero reason to fail when we are unmapping an unrelated range. Many notifiers do really block and wait for HW which is harder to handle and we have to bail out though. This patch handles the low hanging fruit. __mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start gets a blockable flag and callbacks are not allowed to sleep if the flag is set to false. This is achieved by using trylock instead of the sleepable lock for most callbacks and continue as long as we do not block down the call chain. I think we can improve that even further because there is a common pattern to do a range lookup first and then do something about that. The first part can be done without a sleeping lock in most cases AFAICS. The oom_reaper end then simply retries if there is at least one notifier which couldn't make any progress in !blockable mode. A retry loop is already implemented to wait for the mmap_sem and this is basically the same thing. The simplest way for driver developers to test this code path is to wrap userspace code which uses these notifiers into a memcg and set the hard limit to hit the oom. This can be done e.g. after the test faults in all the mmu notifier managed memory and set the hard limit to something really small. Then we are looking for a proper process tear down.
