same cacheline
The LKP robot found a 27% will-it-scale/page_fault3 performance
regression regarding commit e27be240df53("mm: memcg: make sure
memory.events is uptodate when waking pollers").
What the test does is:
1 mkstemp() a 128M file on a tmpfs;
2 start $nr_cpu processes, each to loop the following:
2.1 mmap() this file in shared write mode;
2.2 write 0 to this file in a PAGE_SIZE step till the end of the file;
2.3 unmap() this file and repeat this process.
3 After 5 minutes, check how many loops they managed to complete, the
higher the better.
The commit itself looks innocent enough as it merely changed some event
counting mechanism and this test didn't trigger those events at all.
Perf shows increased cycles spent on accessing root_mem_cgroup->stat_cpu
in count_memcg_event_mm()(called by handle_mm_fault()) and in
__mod_memcg_state() called by page_add_file_rmap(). So it's likely due
to the changed layout of 'struct mem_cgroup' that either make stat_cpu
falling into a constantly modifying cacheline or some hot fields stop
being in the same cacheline.
I verified this by moving memory_events[] back to where it was:
: --- a/include/linux/memcontrol.h
: +++ b/include/linux/memcontrol.h
: @@ -205,7 +205,6 @@ struct mem_cgroup {
: int oom_kill_disable;
:
: /* memory.events */
: - atomic_long_t memory_events[MEMCG_NR_MEMORY_EVENTS];
: struct cgroup_file events_file;
:
: /* protect arrays of thresholds */
: @@ -238,6 +237,7 @@ struct mem_cgroup {

: atomic_long_t events[NR_VM_EVENT_ITEMS];
: + atomic_long_t memory_events[MEMCG_NR_MEMORY_EVENTS];
:
: unsigned long socket_pressure;
And performance restored.
Later investigation found that as long as the following 3 fields
moving_account, move_lock_task and stat_cpu are in the same cacheline,
performance will be good. To avoid future performance surprise by other
commits changing the layout of 'struct mem_cgroup', this patch makes
sure the 3 fields stay in the same cacheline.
One concern of this approach is, moving_account and move_lock_task could
be modified when a process changes memory cgroup while stat_cpu is a
always read field, it might hurt to place them in the same cacheline. I
assume it is rare for a process to change memory cgroup so this should
be OK.

kvmalloc warned about incompatible gfp_mask to catch abusers (mostly
GFP_NOFS) with an intention that this will motivate authors of the code
to fix those. Linus argues that this just motivates people to do even
more hacks like
if (gfp == GFP_KERNEL)
kvmalloc
else
kmalloc
I haven't seen this happening much (Linus pointed to bucket_lock special
cases an atomic allocation but my git foo hasn't found much more) but it
is true that we can grow those in future. Therefore Linus suggested to
simply not fallback to vmalloc for incompatible gfp flags and rather
stick with the kmalloc path.

When bit is equal to 0x4, it means OPT_ZONE_DMA32 should be got from
GFP_ZONE_TABLE. OPT_ZONE_DMA32 shall be equal to ZONE_DMA32 or
ZONE_NORMAL according to the status of CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32.
Similarly, when bit is equal to 0xc, that means OPT_ZONE_DMA32 should be
got with an allocation policy GFP_MOVABLE. So ZONE_DMA32 or ZONE_NORMAL
is the possible result value.

shmem/tmpfs uses pseudo vma to allocate page with correct NUMA policy.
The pseudo vma doesn't have vm_page_prot set. We are going to encode
encryption KeyID in vm_page_prot. Having garbage there causes problems.
Zero out all unused fields in the pseudo vma.

In __alloc_pages_slowpath() we reset zonelist and preferred_zoneref for
allocations that can ignore memory policies. The zonelist is obtained
from current CPU's node. This is a problem for __GFP_THISNODE
allocations that want to allocate on a different node, e.g. because the
allocating thread has been migrated to a different CPU.
This has been observed to break SLAB in our 4.4-based kernel, because
there it relies on __GFP_THISNODE working as intended. If a slab page
is put on wrong node's list, then further list manipulations may corrupt
the list because page_to_nid() is used to determine which node's
list_lock should be locked and thus we may take a wrong lock and race.
Current SLAB implementation seems to be immune by luck thanks to commit
511e3a058812 ("mm/slab: make cache_grow() handle the page allocated on
arbitrary node") but there may be others assuming that __GFP_THISNODE
works as promised.
We can fix it by simply removing the zonelist reset completely. There
is actually no reason to reset it, because memory policies and cpusets
don't affect the zonelist choice in the first place. This was different
when commit 183f6371aac2 ("mm: ignore mempolicies when using
ALLOC_NO_WATERMARK") introduced the code, as mempolicies provided their
own restricted zonelists.
We might consider this for 4.17 although I don't know if there's
anything currently broken.
SLAB is currently not affected, but in kernels older than 4.7 that don't
yet have 511e3a058812 ("mm/slab: make cache_grow() handle the page
allocated on arbitrary node") it is. That's at least 4.4 LTS. Older
ones I'll have to check.
So stable backports should be more important, but will have to be
reviewed carefully, as the code went through many changes. BTW I think
that also the ac->preferred_zoneref reset is currently useless if we
don't also reset ac->nodemask from a mempolicy to NULL first (which we
probably should for the OOM victims etc?), but I would leave that for a
separate patch.

If a process monitored with userfaultfd changes it's memory mappings or
forks() at the same time as uffd monitor fills the process memory with
UFFDIO_COPY, the actual creation of page table entries and copying of
the data in mcopy_atomic may happen either before of after the memory
mapping modifications and there is no way for the uffd monitor to
maintain consistent view of the process memory layout.
For instance, let's consider fork() running in parallel with
userfaultfd_copy():
process | uffd monitor
---------------------------------+------------------------------
fork() | userfaultfd_copy()
... | ...
dup_mmap() | down_read(mmap_sem)
down_write(mmap_sem) | /* create PTEs, copy data */
dup_uffd() | up_read(mmap_sem)
copy_page_range() |
up_write(mmap_sem) |
dup_uffd_complete() |
/* notify monitor */ |
If the userfaultfd_copy() takes the mmap_sem first, the new page(s) will
be present by the time copy_page_range() is called and they will appear
in the child's memory mappings. However, if the fork() is the first to
take the mmap_sem, the new pages won't be mapped in the child's address
space.
If the pages are not present and child tries to access them, the monitor
will get page fault notification and everything is fine. However, if
the pages *are present*, the child can access them without uffd
noticing. And if we copy them into child it'll see the wrong data.
Since we are talking about background copy, we'd need to decide whether
the pages should be copied or not regardless #PF notifications.
Since userfaultfd monitor has no way to determine what was the order,
let's disallow userfaultfd_copy in parallel with the non-cooperative
events. In such case we return -EAGAIN and the uffd monitor can
understand that userfaultfd_copy() clashed with a non-cooperative event
and take an appropriate action.

Currently an attempt to set swap.max into a value lower than the actual
swap usage fails, which causes configuration problems as there's no way
of lowering the configuration below the current usage short of turning
off swap entirely. This makes swap.max difficult to use and allows
delegatees to lock the delegator out of reducing swap allocation.
This patch updates swap_max_write() so that the limit can be lowered
below the current usage. It doesn't implement active reclaiming of swap
entries for the following reasons.
* mem_cgroup_swap_full() already tells the swap machinary to
aggressively reclaim swap entries if the usage is above 50% of
limit, so simply lowering the limit automatically triggers gradual
reclaim.
* Forcing back swapped out pages is likely to heavily impact the
workload and mess up the working set. Given that swap usually is a
lot less valuable and less scarce, letting the existing usage
dissipate over time through the above gradual reclaim and as they're
falted back in is likely the better behavior.

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.
See commit 1c8f422059ae ("mm: change return type to vm_fault_t")
vmf_error() is the newly introduce inline function in 4.17-rc6.

By moving page->private to the fourth word of struct page, we can put the
SLUB counters in the same word as SLAB's s_mem and still do the
cmpxchg_double trick. Now the SLUB counters no longer overlap with the
mapcount or refcount so we can drop the call to page_mapcount_reset() and
simplify set_page_slub_counters() to a single line.

This will allow us to store slub's counters in the same bits as slab's
s_mem. slub now needs to set page->mapping to NULL as it frees the page,
just like slab does.

Define a new PageTable bit in the page_type and use it to mark pages in
use as page tables. This can be helpful when debugging crashdumps or
analysing memory fragmentation. Add a KPF flag to report these pages to
userspace and update page-types.c to interpret that flag.
Note that only pages currently accounted as NR_PAGETABLES are tracked as
PageTable; this does not include pgd/p4d/pud/pmd pages. Those will be the
subject of a later patch.

We're already using a union of many fields here, so stop abusing the
_mapcount and make page_type its own field. That implies renaming some of
the machinery that creates PageBuddy, PageBalloon and PageKmemcg; bring
back the PG_buddy, PG_balloon and PG_kmemcg names.
As suggested by Kirill, make page_type a bitmask. Because it starts out
life as -1 (thanks to sharing the storage with _mapcount), setting a page
flag means clearing the appropriate bit. This gives us space for probably
twenty or so extra bits (depending how paranoid we want to be about
_mapcount underflow).

Patch series "Rearrange struct page", v6.
As presented at LSFMM, this patch-set rearranges struct page to give
more contiguous usable space to users who have allocated a struct page
for their own purposes. For a graphical view of before-and-after, see
the first two tabs of
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tvCszs_7FXrjei9_mtFiKV6nW1FLnYyvPvW-qNZhdog/edit?usp=sharing
Highlights:
- deferred_list now really exists in struct page instead of just a comment.
- hmm_data also exists in struct page instead of being a nasty hack.
- x86's PGD pages have a real pointer to the mm_struct.
- VMalloc pages now have all sorts of extra information stored in them
to help with debugging and tuning.
- rcu_head is no longer tied to slab in case anyone else wants to
free pages by RCU.
- slub's counters no longer share space with _refcount.
- slub's freelist+counters are now naturally dword aligned.
- slub loses a parameter to a lot of functions and a sysfs file.
This patch (of 17):
s390 borrows the storage used for _mapcount in struct page in order to
account whether the bottom or top half is being used for 2kB page tables.
I want to use that for something else, so use the top byte of _refcount
instead of the bottom byte of _mapcount. _refcount may temporarily be
incremented by other CPUs that see a stale pointer to this page in the
page cache, but each CPU can only increment it by one, and there are no
systems with 2^24 CPUs today, so they will not change the upper byte of
_refcount. We do have to be a little careful not to lose any of their
writes (as they will subsequently decrement the counter).

This is to take better advantage of general huge page clearing
optimization (commit c79b57e462b5: "mm: hugetlb: clear target sub-page
last when clearing huge page") for hugetlbfs.
In the general optimization patch, the sub-page to access will be
cleared last to avoid the cache lines of to access sub-page to be
evicted when clearing other sub-pages. This works better if we have the
address of the sub-page to access, that is, the fault address inside the
huge page. So the hugetlbfs no page fault handler is changed to pass
that information. This will benefit workloads which don't access the
begin of the hugetlbfs huge page after the page fault under heavy cache
contention for shared last level cache.
The patch is a generic optimization which should benefit quite some
workloads, not for a specific use case. To demonstrate the performance
benefit of the patch, we tested it with vm-scalability run on hugetlbfs.
With this patch, the throughput increases ~28.1% in vm-scalability
anon-w-seq test case with 88 processes on a 2 socket Xeon E5 2699 v4
system (44 cores, 88 threads). The test case creates 88 processes, each
process mmaps a big anonymous memory area with MAP_HUGETLB and writes to
it from the end to the begin. For each process, other processes could
be seen as other workload which generates heavy cache pressure. At the
same time, the cache miss rate reduced from ~36.3% to ~25.6%, the IPC
(instruction per cycle) increased from 0.3 to 0.37, and the time spent
in user space is reduced ~19.3%.

Memory controller implements the memory.low best-effort memory
protection mechanism, which works perfectly in many cases and allows
protecting working sets of important workloads from sudden reclaim.
But its semantics has a significant limitation: it works only as long as
there is a supply of reclaimable memory. This makes it pretty useless
against any sort of slow memory leaks or memory usage increases. This
is especially true for swapless systems. If swap is enabled, memory
soft protection effectively postpones problems, allowing a leaking
application to fill all swap area, which makes no sense. The only
effective way to guarantee the memory protection in this case is to
invoke the OOM killer.
It's possible to handle this case in userspace by reacting on MEMCG_LOW
events; but there is still a place for a fail-safe in-kernel mechanism
to provide stronger guarantees.
This patch introduces the memory.min interface for cgroup v2 memory
controller. It works very similarly to memory.low (sharing the same
hierarchical behavior), except that it's not disabled if there is no
more reclaimable memory in the system.
If cgroup is not populated, its memory.min is ignored, because otherwise
even the OOM killer wouldn't be able to reclaim the protected memory,
and the system can stall.

In commit ab676b7d6fbf ("pagemap: do not leak physical addresses to
non-privileged userspace"), the /proc/PID/pagemap is restricted to be
readable only by CAP_SYS_ADMIN to address some security issue.
In commit 1c90308e7a77 ("pagemap: hide physical addresses from
non-privileged users"), the restriction is relieved to make
/proc/PID/pagemap readable, but hide the physical addresses for
non-privileged users.
But the swap entries are readable for non-privileged users too. This
has some security issues. For example, for page under migrating, the
swap entry has physical address information. So, in this patch, the
swap entries are hided for non-privileged users too.

tmpfs uses the helper d_find_alias() to find a dentry from a decoded
inode, but d_find_alias() skips unhashed dentries, so unlinked files
cannot be decoded from a file handle.
This can be reproduced using xfstests test program open_by_handle:
$ open_by handle -c /tmp/testdir
$ open_by_handle -dk /tmp/testdir
open_by_handle(/tmp/testdir/file000000) returned 116 incorrectly on an unlinked open file!
To fix this, if d_find_alias() can't find a hashed alias, call
d_find_any_alias() to return an unhashed one.

While revisiting my Btrfs swapfile series [1], I introduced a situation
in which reclaim would lock i_rwsem, and even though the swapon() path
clearly made GFP_KERNEL allocations while holding i_rwsem, I got no
complaints from lockdep. It turns out that the rework of the fs_reclaim
annotation was broken: if the current task has PF_MEMALLOC set, we don't
acquire the dummy fs_reclaim lock, but when reclaiming we always check
this _after_ we've just set the PF_MEMALLOC flag. In most cases, we can
fix this by moving the fs_reclaim_{acquire,release}() outside of the
memalloc_noreclaim_{save,restore}(), althought kswapd is slightly
different. After applying this, I got the expected lockdep splats.

filesystem with huge page support anymore. tmpfs can use huge page via
THP when mounting by "huge=" mount option.
When applications use huge page on hugetlbfs, it just need check the
filesystem magic number, but it is not enough for tmpfs. Make
stat.st_blksize return huge page size if it is mounted by appropriate
"huge=" option to give applications a hint to optimize the behavior with
THP.
Some applications may not do wisely with THP. For example, QEMU may
mmap file on non huge page aligned hint address with MAP_FIXED, which
results in no pages are PMD mapped even though THP is used. Some
applications may mmap file with non huge page aligned offset. Both
behaviors make THP pointless.
statfs.f_bsize still returns 4KB for tmpfs since THP could be split, and
it also may fallback to 4KB page silently if there is not enough huge
page. Furthermore, different f_bsize makes max_blocks and free_blocks
calculation harder but without too much benefit. Returning huge page
size via stat.st_blksize sounds good enough.
Since PUD size huge page for THP has not been supported, now it just
returns HPAGE_PMD_SIZE.

: Yes, it would sometimes be nice to have a quickly accessible indicator

: pages transparently, no difference seemed right.
:
: So, because st_blksize is a not very useful field of struct stat, with
: "size" in the name, we're going to put HPAGE_PMD_SIZE in there instead
: of PAGE_SIZE, if the tmpfs was mounted with one of the huge "huge"
: options (force or always, okay; within_size or advise, not so much).
: Though HPAGE_PMD_SIZE is no more its "preferred I/O size" or "blocksize
: for file system I/O" than PAGE_SIZE was.
:
: Which we can expect to speed up some applications and disadvantage
: others, depending on how they interpret st_blksize: just like if we
: changed it in the same way on non-huge tmpfs. (Did I actually try
: changing st_blksize early on, and find it broke something? If so, I've
: now forgotten what, and a search through commit messages didn't find
: it; but I guess we'll find out soon enough.)
:
: If there were an mstat() syscall, returning a field "preferred
: alignment", then we could certainly agree to put HPAGE_PMD_SIZE in
: there; but in stat()'s st_blksize? And what happens when (in future)
: mm maps this or that hard-disk filesystem's blocks with a pmd mapping -
: should that filesystem then advertise a bigger st_blksize, despite the
: same disk layout as before? What happens with DAX?
:
: And this change is not going to help the QEMU suboptimality that
: brought you here (or does QEMU align mmaps according to st_blksize?).
: QEMU ought to work well with kernels without this change, and kernels
: with this change; and I hope it can easily deal with both by avoiding
: that use of MAP_FIXED which prevented the kernel's intended alignment.

Client can call vunmap with some intermediate 'addr' which may not be
the start of the VM area. Entire unmap code works with vm->vm_start
which is proper but debug object API is called with 'addr'. This could
be a problem within debug objects.
Pass proper start address into debug object API.

Currently, __vunmap flow is,
1) Release the VM area
2) Free the debug objects corresponding to that vm area.
This leave some race window open.
1) Release the VM area
1.5) Some other client gets the same vm area
1.6) This client allocates new debug objects on the same
vm area
2) Free the debug objects corresponding to this vm area.
Here, we actually free 'other' client's debug objects.
Fix this by freeing the debug objects first and then releasing the VM
area.

vunmap does page table clear operations twice in the case when
DEBUG_PAGEALLOC_ENABLE_DEFAULT is enabled.
So, clean up the code as that is unintended.
As a perf gain, we save few us. Below ftrace data was obtained while
doing 1 MB of vmalloc/vfree on ARM64 based SoC *without* this patch
applied. After this patch, we can save ~3 us (on 1 extra
vunmap_page_range).

In commit c4e1be9ec113 ("mm, sparsemem: break out of loops early")
__highest_present_section_nr is introduced to reduce the loop counts for
present section. This is also helpful for usemap and memmap allocation.
This patch uses __highest_present_section_nr + 1 to optimize the loop.

When searching a present section, there are two boundaries:
* __highest_present_section_nr
* NR_MEM_SECTIONS
And it is known, __highest_present_section_nr is a more strict boundary
than NR_MEM_SECTIONS. This means it would be necessary to check
__highest_present_section_nr only.

mmap_sem will be read locked when calling follow_pmd_mask(). But this
cannot prevent PMD from being changed for all cases when PTL is
unlocked, for example, from pmd_trans_huge() to pmd_none() via
MADV_DONTNEED. So it is possible for the pmd_present() check in
follow_pmd_mask() to encounter an invalid PMD. This may cause an
incorrect VM_BUG_ON() or an infinite loop. Fix this by reading the PMD
entry into a local variable with READ_ONCE() and checking the local
variable and pmd_none() in the retry loop.
As Kirill pointed out, with PTL unlocked, the *pmd may be changed under
us, so reading it directly again and again may incur weird bugs. So
although using *pmd directly other than for pmd_present() checking may
be safe, it is still better to replace them to read *pmd once and check
the local variable multiple times.
When PTL unlocked, replace all *pmd with local variable was suggested by
Kirill.
