This patch fixes a corner case for KSM. When two pages belong or
belonged to the same transparent hugepage, and they should be merged,
KSM fails to split the page, and therefore no merging happens.
This bug can be reproduced by:
* making sure ksm is running (in case disabling ksmtuned)
* enabling transparent hugepages
* allocating a THP-aligned 1-THP-sized buffer
e.g. on amd64: posix_memalign(&p, 1<<21, 1<<21)
* filling it with the same values
e.g. memset(p, 42, 1<<21)
* performing madvise to make it mergeable
e.g. madvise(p, 1<<21, MADV_MERGEABLE)
* waiting for KSM to perform a few scans
The expected outcome is that the all the pages get merged (1 shared and
the rest sharing); the actual outcome is that no pages get merged (1
unshared and the rest volatile)
The reason of this behaviour is that we increase the reference count
once for both pages we want to merge, but if they belong to the same
hugepage (or compound page), the reference counter used in both cases is
the one of the head of the compound page. This means that
split_huge_page will find a value of the reference counter too high and
will fail.
This patch solves this problem by testing if the two pages to merge
belong to the same hugepage when attempting to merge them. If so, the
hugepage is split safely. This means that the hugepage is not split if
not necessary.

Currently <linux/slab.h> #includes <linux/kmemleak.h> for no obvious
reason. It looks like it's only a convenience, so remove kmemleak.h
from slab.h and add <linux/kmemleak.h> to any users of kmemleak_* that
don't already #include it. Also remove <linux/kmemleak.h> from source
files that do not use it.
This is tested on i386 allmodconfig and x86_64 allmodconfig. It would
be good to run it through the 0day bot for other $ARCHes. I have
neither the horsepower nor the storage space for the other $ARCHes.
Update: This patch has been extensively build-tested by both the 0day

[ slab.h is the second most used header file after module.h; kernel.h is

start_isolate_page_range() is used to set the migrate type of a set of
pageblocks to MIGRATE_ISOLATE while attempting to start a migration
operation. It assumes that only one thread is calling it for the
specified range. This routine is used by CMA, memory hotplug and
gigantic huge pages. Each of these users synchronize access to the
range within their subsystem. However, two subsystems (CMA and gigantic
huge pages for example) could attempt operations on the same range. If
this happens, one thread may 'undo' the work another thread is doing.
This can result in pageblocks being incorrectly left marked as
MIGRATE_ISOLATE and therefore not available for page allocation.
What is ideally needed is a way to synchronize access to a set of
pageblocks that are undergoing isolation and migration. The only thing
we know about these pageblocks is that they are all in the same zone. A
per-node mutex is too coarse as we want to allow multiple operations on
different ranges within the same zone concurrently. Instead, we will
use the migration type of the pageblocks themselves as a form of
synchronization.
start_isolate_page_range sets the migration type on a set of page-
blocks going in order from the one associated with the smallest pfn to
the largest pfn. The zone lock is acquired to check and set the
migration type. When going through the list of pageblocks check if
MIGRATE_ISOLATE is already set. If so, this indicates another thread is
working on this pageblock. We know exactly which pageblocks we set, so
clean up by undo those and return -EBUSY.
This allows start_isolate_page_range to serve as a synchronization
mechanism and will allow for more general use of callers making use of
these interfaces. Update comments in alloc_contig_range to reflect this
new functionality.
Each CPU holds the associated zone lock to modify or examine the
migration type of a pageblock. And, it will only examine/update a
single pageblock per lock acquire/release cycle.

Since the 2.6 kernel, the oom killer has slightly biased away from
CAP_SYS_ADMIN processes by discounting some of its memory usage in
comparison to other processes.
This has always been implicit and nothing exactly relies on the
behavior.
Gaurav notices that __task_cred() can dereference a potentially freed
pointer if the task under consideration is exiting because a reference
to the task_struct is not held.
Remove the CAP_SYS_ADMIN bias so that all processes are treated equally.
If any CAP_SYS_ADMIN process would like to be biased against, it is
always allowed to adjust /proc/pid/oom_score_adj.

Kswapd will not wakeup if per-zone watermarks are not failing or if too
many previous attempts at background reclaim have failed.
This can be true if there is a lot of free memory available. For high-
order allocations, kswapd is responsible for waking up kcompactd for
background compaction. If the zone is not below its watermarks or
reclaim has recently failed (lots of free memory, nothing left to
reclaim), kcompactd does not get woken up.
When __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is not allowed, allow kcompactd to still be
woken up even if kswapd will not reclaim. This allows high-order
allocations, such as thp, to still trigger background compaction even
when the zone has an abundance of free memory.

During the reclaiming slab of a memcg, shrink_slab iterates over all

Patch series "zsmalloc/zram: drop zram's max_zpage_size", v3.
ZRAM's max_zpage_size is a bad thing. It forces zsmalloc to store
normal objects as huge ones, which results in bigger zsmalloc memory
usage. Drop it and use actual zsmalloc huge-class value when decide if
the object is huge or not.
This patch (of 2):
Not every object can be share its zspage with other objects, e.g. when
the object is as big as zspage or nearly as big a zspage. For such
objects zsmalloc has a so called huge class - every object which belongs
to huge class consumes the entire zspage (which consists of a physical
page). On x86_64, PAGE_SHIFT 12 box, the first non-huge class size is
3264, so starting down from size 3264, objects can share page(-s) and
thus minimize memory wastage.
ZRAM, however, has its own statically defined watermark for huge
objects, namely "3 * PAGE_SIZE / 4 = 3072", and forcibly stores every
object larger than this watermark (3072) as a PAGE_SIZE object, in other
words, to a huge class, while zsmalloc can keep some of those objects in
non-huge classes. This results in increased memory consumption.

Thanks to commit 4b3ef9daa4 ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB
trunks"), after swapoff the address_space associated with the swap
device will be freed. So page_mapping() users which may touch the
address_space need some kind of mechanism to prevent the address_space
from being freed during accessing.
The dcache flushing functions (flush_dcache_page(), etc) in architecture
specific code may access the address_space of swap device for anonymous
pages in swap cache via page_mapping() function. But in some cases
there are no mechanisms to prevent the swap device from being swapoff,
for example,
CPU1 CPU2
__get_user_pages() swapoff()
flush_dcache_page()
mapping = page_mapping()
... exit_swap_address_space()
... kvfree(spaces)
mapping_mapped(mapping)
The address space may be accessed after being freed.
But from cachetlb.txt and Russell King, flush_dcache_page() only care
about file cache pages, for anonymous pages, flush_anon_page() should be
used. The implementation of flush_dcache_page() in all architectures
follows this too. They will check whether page_mapping() is NULL and
whether mapping_mapped() is true to determine whether to flush the
dcache immediately. And they will use interval tree (mapping->i_mmap)
to find all user space mappings. While mapping_mapped() and
mapping->i_mmap isn't used by anonymous pages in swap cache at all.
So, to fix the race between swapoff and flush dcache, __page_mapping()
is add to return the address_space for file cache pages and NULL
otherwise. All page_mapping() invoking in flush dcache functions are
replaced with page_mapping_file().

When device-dax is operating in huge-page mode we want it to behave like
hugetlbfs and report the MMU page mapping size that is being enforced by
the vma.
Similar to commit 31383c6865 "mm, hugetlbfs: introduce ->split() to
vm_operations_struct" it would be messy to teach vma_mmu_pagesize()
about device-dax page mapping sizes in the same (hstate) way that
hugetlbfs communicates this attribute. Instead, these patches introduce
a new ->pagesize() vm operation.

Patch series "mm, smaps: MMUPageSize for device-dax", v3.
Similar to commit 31383c6865 ("mm, hugetlbfs: introduce ->split() to
vm_operations_struct") here is another occasion where we want
special-case hugetlbfs/hstate enabling to also apply to device-dax.
This prompts the question what other hstate conversions we might do
beyond ->split() and ->pagesize(), but this appears to be the last of
the usages of hstate_vma() in generic/non-hugetlbfs specific code paths.
This patch (of 3):
The current powerpc definition of vma_mmu_pagesize() open codes looking
up the page size via hstate. It is identical to the generic
vma_kernel_pagesize() implementation.
Now, vma_kernel_pagesize() is growing support for determining the page
size of Device-DAX vmas in addition to the existing Hugetlbfs page size
determination.
Ideally, if the powerpc vma_mmu_pagesize() used vma_kernel_pagesize() it
would automatically benefit from any new vma-type support that is added
to vma_kernel_pagesize(). However, the powerpc vma_mmu_pagesize() is
prevented from calling vma_kernel_pagesize() due to a circular header
dependency that requires vma_mmu_pagesize() to be defined before
including <linux/hugetlb.h>.
Break this circular dependency by defining the default vma_mmu_pagesize()
as a __weak symbol to be overridden by the powerpc version.

When a page is freed back to the global pool, its buddy will be checked
to see if it's possible to do a merge. This requires accessing buddy's
page structure and that access could take a long time if it's cache
cold.
This patch adds a prefetch to the to-be-freed page's buddy outside of
zone->lock in hope of accessing buddy's page structure later under
zone->lock will be faster. Since we *always* do buddy merging and check
an order-0 page's buddy to try to merge it when it goes into the main
allocator, the cacheline will always come in, i.e. the prefetched data
will never be unused.
Normally, the number of prefetch will be pcp->batch(default=31 and has
an upper limit of (PAGE_SHIFT * 8)=96 on x86_64) but in the case of
pcp's pages get all drained, it will be pcp->count which has an upper
limit of pcp->high. pcp->high, although has a default value of 186
(pcp->batch=31 * 6), can be changed by user through
/proc/sys/vm/percpu_pagelist_fraction and there is no software upper
limit so could be large, like several thousand. For this reason, only
the first pcp->batch number of page's buddy structure is prefetched to
avoid excessive prefetching.
In the meantime, there are two concerns:
1. the prefetch could potentially evict existing cachelines, especially
for L1D cache since it is not huge
2. there is some additional instruction overhead, namely calculating
buddy pfn twice
For 1, it's hard to say, this microbenchmark though shows good result
but the actual benefit of this patch will be workload/CPU dependant;
For 2, since the calculation is a XOR on two local variables, it's
expected in many cases that cycles spent will be offset by reduced
memory latency later. This is especially true for NUMA machines where
multiple CPUs are contending on zone->lock and the most time consuming
part under zone->lock is the wait of 'struct page' cacheline of the
to-be-freed pages and their buddies.

When freeing a batch of pages from Per-CPU-Pages(PCP) back to buddy, the
zone->lock is held and then pages are chosen from PCP's migratetype
list. While there is actually no need to do this 'choose part' under
lock since it's PCP pages, the only CPU that can touch them is us and
irq is also disabled.
Moving this part outside could reduce lock held time and improve

It's possible for free pages to become stranded on per-cpu pagesets
(pcps) that, if drained, could be merged with buddy pages on the zone's
free area to form large order pages, including up to MAX_ORDER.
Consider a verbose example using the tools/vm/page-types tool at the
beginning of a ZONE_NORMAL ('B' indicates a buddy page and 'S' indicates
a slab page). Pages on pcps do not have any page flags set.

The compaction migration scanner is attempting to defragment this memory
since it is at the beginning of the zone. It has done so quite well,
all movable pages have been migrated. From pfn [0x109955, 0x109fab),
there are only buddy pages and pages without flags set.
These pages may be stranded on pcps that could otherwise allow this
memory to be coalesced if freed back to the zone free area. It is
possible that some of these pages may not be on pcps and that something
has called alloc_pages() and used the memory directly, but we rely on
the absence of __GFP_MOVABLE in these cases to allocate from
MIGATE_UNMOVABLE pageblocks to try to keep these MIGRATE_MOVABLE
pageblocks as free as possible.
These buddy and pcp pages, spanning 1,621 pages, could be coalesced and
allow for three transparent hugepages to be dynamically allocated.
Running the numbers for all such spans on the system, it was found that
there were over 400 such spans of only buddy pages and pages without
flags set at the time this /proc/kpageflags sample was collected.
Without this support, there were _no_ order-9 or order-10 pages free.
When kcompactd fails to defragment memory such that a cc.order page can
be allocated, drain all pcps for the zone back to the buddy allocator so
this stranding cannot occur. Compaction for that order will
subsequently be deferred, which acts as a ratelimit on this drain.

should_failslab() is a convenient function to hook into for directed
error injection into kmalloc(). However, it is only available if a
config flag is set.
The following BCC script, for example, fails kmalloc() calls after a
btrfs umount:
from bcc import BPF
prog = r"""
BPF_HASH(flag);
#include <linux/mm.h>
int kprobe__btrfs_close_devices(void *ctx) {
u64 key = 1;
flag.update(&key, &key);
return 0;
}
int kprobe__should_failslab(struct pt_regs *ctx) {
u64 key = 1;
u64 *res;
res = flag.lookup(&key);
if (res != 0) {
bpf_override_return(ctx, -ENOMEM);
}
return 0;
}
"""
b = BPF(text=prog)
while 1:
b.kprobe_poll()
This patch refactors the should_failslab implementation so that the
function is always available for error injection, independent of flags.
This change would be similar in nature to commit f5490d3ec921 ("block:
Add should_fail_bio() for bpf error injection").

Currently if z3fold couldn't find an unbuddied page it would first try
to pull a page off the stale list. The problem with this approach is
that we can't 100% guarantee that the page is not processed by the
workqueue thread at the same time unless we run cancel_work_sync() on
it, which we can't do if we're in an atomic context. So let's just
limit stale list usage to non-atomic contexts only.

THP split makes non-atomic change of tail page flags. This is almost ok
because tail pages are locked and isolated but this breaks recent
changes in page locking: non-atomic operation could clear bit
PG_waiters.
As a result concurrent sequence get_page_unless_zero() -> lock_page()
might block forever. Especially if this page was truncated later.
Fix is trivial: clone flags before unfreezing page reference counter.
This race exists since commit 6290602709 ("mm: add PageWaiters
indicating tasks are waiting for a page bit") while unsave unfreeze
itself was added in commit 8df651c705 ("thp: cleanup
split_huge_page()").
clear_compound_head() also must be called before unfreezing page
reference because after successful get_page_unless_zero() might follow
put_page() which needs correct compound_head().
And replace page_ref_inc()/page_ref_add() with page_ref_unfreeze() which
is made especially for that and has semantic of smp_store_release().

When page_mapping() is called and the mapping is dereferenced in
page_evicatable() through shrink_active_list(), it is possible for the
inode to be truncated and the embedded address space to be freed at the
same time. This may lead to the following race.
CPU1 CPU2
truncate(inode) shrink_active_list()
... page_evictable(page)
truncate_inode_page(mapping, page);
delete_from_page_cache(page)
spin_lock_irqsave(&mapping->tree_lock, flags);
__delete_from_page_cache(page, NULL)
page_cache_tree_delete(..)
... mapping = page_mapping(page);
page->mapping = NULL;
...
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mapping->tree_lock, flags);
page_cache_free_page(mapping, page)
put_page(page)
if (put_page_testzero(page)) -> false
- inode now has no pages and can be freed including embedded address_space
mapping_unevictable(mapping)
test_bit(AS_UNEVICTABLE, &mapping->flags);
- we've dereferenced mapping which is potentially already free.
Similar race exists between swap cache freeing and page_evicatable()
too.
The address_space in inode and swap cache will be freed after a RCU
grace period. So the races are fixed via enclosing the page_mapping()
and address_space usage in rcu_read_lock/unlock(). Some comments are
added in code to make it clear what is protected by the RCU read lock.

Both kernelcore= and movablecore= can be used to define the amount of
ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_MOVABLE on a system, respectively. This requires
the system memory capacity to be known when specifying the command line,
however.
This introduces the ability to define both kernelcore= and movablecore=
as a percentage of total system memory. This is convenient for systems
software that wants to define the amount of ZONE_MOVABLE, for example,
as a proportion of a system's memory rather than a hardcoded byte value.
To define the percentage, the final character of the parameter should be
a '%'.

You can easily reproduce this by calling madvise(MADV_HWPOISON) twice on
a 1GB hugepage. This happens because get_user_pages_fast() is not aware
of a migration entry on pud that was created in the 1st madvise() event.
I think that conversion to pud-aligned migration entry is working, but
other MM code walking over page table isn't prepared for it. We need
some time and effort to make all this work properly, so this patch
avoids the reported bug by just disabling error handling for 1GB
hugepage.

During memory hotplugging we traverse struct pages three times:
1. memset(0) in sparse_add_one_section()
2. loop in __add_section() to set do: set_page_node(page, nid); and
SetPageReserved(page);
3. loop in memmap_init_zone() to call __init_single_pfn()
This patch removes the first two loops, and leaves only loop 3. All
struct pages are initialized in one place, the same as it is done during
boot.
The benefits:
- We improve memory hotplug performance because we are not evicting the
cache several times and also reduce loop branching overhead.
- Remove condition from hotpath in __init_single_pfn(), that was added
in order to fix the problem that was reported by Bharata in the above
email thread, thus also improve performance during normal boot.
- Make memory hotplug more similar to the boot memory initialization
path because we zero and initialize struct pages only in one
function.
- Simplifies memory hotplug struct page initialization code, and thus
enables future improvements, such as multi-threading the
initialization of struct pages in order to improve hotplug
performance even further on larger machines.

During memory hotplugging the probe routine will leave struct pages
uninitialized, the same as it is currently done during boot. Therefore,
we do not want to access the inside of struct pages before
__init_single_page() is called during onlining.
Because during hotplug we know that pages in one memory block belong to
the same numa node, we can skip the checking. We should keep checking
for the boot case.

During boot we poison struct page memory in order to ensure that no one
is accessing this memory until the struct pages are initialized in
__init_single_page().
This patch adds more scrutiny to this checking by making sure that flags
do not equal the poison pattern when they are accessed. The pattern is
all ones.
Since node id is also stored in struct page, and may be accessed quite
early, we add this enforcement into page_to_nid() function as well.

Patch series "optimize memory hotplug", v3.
This patchset:
- Improves hotplug performance by eliminating a number of struct page
traverses during memory hotplug.
- Fixes some issues with hotplugging, where boundaries were not
properly checked. And on x86 block size was not properly aligned with
end of memory
- Also, potentially improves boot performance by eliminating condition
from __init_single_page().
- Adds robustness by verifying that that struct pages are correctly
poisoned when flags are accessed.
The following experiments were performed on Xeon(R) CPU E7-8895 v3 @

be hotplugged later.
Also make sure that config has the following turned on:

205 if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!pfn_valid(pfn)))
This function loops through every section in the newly added memory
block and verifies that the first pfn is valid, meaning section exists,
has mapping (struct page array), and is online.
The block size on x86 is usually 128M, but when machine is booted with
more than 64G of memory, the block size is changed to 2G: $ cat
/sys/devices/system/memory/block_size_bytes 80000000
or
$ dmesg | grep "block size"
[ 0.086469] x86/mm: Memory block size: 2048MB
During memory hotplug, and hotremove we verify that the range is section
size aligned, but we actually must verify that it is block size aligned,
because that is the proper unit for hotplug operations. See:
Documentation/memory-hotplug.txt
So, when the start_pfn of newly added memory is not block size aligned,
we can get a memory block that has only part of it with properly
populated sections.
In our case the start_pfn starts from the last_pfn (end of physical
memory).
$ dmesg | grep last_pfn
[ 0.000000] e820: last_pfn = 0x1040000 max_arch_pfn = 0x400000000
0x1040000 == 65G, and so is not 2G aligned!
The fix is to enforce that memory that is hotplugged and hotremoved is
block size aligned.
With this fix, running the above sequence yield to the following result:
(qemu) device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm1,memdev=mem1

Deferred page initialization allows the boot cpu to initialize a small
subset of the system's pages early in boot, with other cpus doing the
rest later on.
It is, however, problematic to know how many pages the kernel needs
during boot. Different modules and kernel parameters may change the
requirement, so the boot cpu either initializes too many pages or runs
out of memory.
To fix that, initialize early pages on demand. This ensures the kernel
does the minimum amount of work to initialize pages during boot and
leaves the rest to be divided in the multithreaded initialization path
(deferred_init_memmap).
The on-demand code is permanently disabled using static branching once
deferred pages are initialized. After the static branch is changed to
false, the overhead is up-to two branch-always instructions if the zone
watermark check fails or if rmqueue fails.
Sergey Senozhatsky noticed that while deferred pages currently make
sense only on NUMA machines (we start one thread per latency node),
CONFIG_NUMA is not a requirement for CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT,
so that is also must be addressed in the patch.

Vlastimil Babka reported about a window issue during which when deferred
pages are initialized, and the current version of on-demand
initialization is finished, allocations may fail. While this is highly
unlikely scenario, since this kind of allocation request must be large,
and must come from interrupt handler, we still want to cover it.
We solve this by initializing deferred pages with interrupts disabled,
and holding node_size_lock spin lock while pages in the node are being
initialized. The on-demand deferred page initialization that comes
later will use the same lock, and thus synchronize with
deferred_init_memmap().
It is unlikely for threads that initialize deferred pages to be
interrupted. They run soon after smp_init(), but before modules are
initialized, and long before user space programs. This is why there is
no adverse effect of having these threads running with interrupts
disabled.

For mm/swap_slots.c, use the traditional Linux method of conditional
compilation and linking instead of always compiling it by using #ifdef
CONFIG_SWAP and #endif for the entire source file (excluding header
files).

alloc_contig_range() initiates compaction and eventual migration for the
purpose of either CMA or HugeTLB allocations. At present, the reason
code remains the same MR_CMA for either of these cases. Let's make it
MR_CONTIG_RANGE which will appropriately reflect the reason code in both
these cases.

The documentation for ignore_rlimit_data says that it will print a
warning at first misuse. Yet it doesn't seem to do that.
Fix the code to print the warning even when we allow the process to
continue.

stable_node_dup() is local to the source and does not need to be in
global scope, so make it static.
Cleans up sparse warning:
mm/ksm.c:1321:13: warning: symbol 'stable_node_dup' was not declared. Should it be static?

The kasan quarantine is designed to delay freeing slab objects to catch
use-after-free. The quarantine can be large (several percent of machine
memory size). When kmem_caches are deleted related objects are flushed
from the quarantine but this requires scanning the entire quarantine
which can be very slow. We have seen the kernel busily working on this
while holding slab_mutex and badly affecting cache_reaper, slabinfo
readers and memcg kmem cache creations.
It can easily reproduced by following script:
yes . | head -1000000 | xargs stat > /dev/null
for i in `seq 1 10`; do
seq 500 | (cd /cg/memory && xargs mkdir)
seq 500 | xargs -I{} sh -c 'echo $BASHPID > \
/cg/memory/{}/tasks && exec stat .' > /dev/null
seq 500 | (cd /cg/memory && xargs rmdir)
done
The busy stack:
kasan_cache_shutdown
shutdown_cache
memcg_destroy_kmem_caches
mem_cgroup_css_free
css_free_rwork_fn
process_one_work
worker_thread
kthread
ret_from_fork
This patch is based on the observation that if the kmem_cache to be
destroyed is empty then there should not be any objects of this cache in
the quarantine.
Without the patch the script got stuck for couple of hours. With the
patch the script completed within a second.

Since commit db265eca77 ("mm/sl[aou]b: Move duping of slab name to
slab_common.c"), the kernel always duplicates the slab cache name when
creating a slab cache, so the test if the slab name is accessible is
useless.
