do_mmap_pgoff() rounds up the desired size to the next PAGE_SIZE multiple, however there was no equivalent code in mm_populate(), which caused issues. This could be fixed by introduced the same rounding in mm_populate(), however I think it's preferable to make do_mmap_pgoff() return populate as a size rather than as a boolean, so we don't have to duplicate the size rounding logic in mm_populate().

The vm_populate() code populates user mappings without constantly holding the mmap_sem. This makes it susceptible to racy userspace programs: the user mappings may change while vm_populate() is running, and in this case vm_populate() may end up populating the new mapping instead of the old one. In order to reduce the possibility of userspace getting surprised by this behavior, this change introduces the VM_POPULATE vma flag which gets set on vmas we want vm_populate() to work on. This way vm_populate() may still end up populating the new mapping after such a race, but only if the new mapping is also one that the user has requested (using MAP_SHARED, MAP_LOCKED or mlock) to be populated.

In find_extend_vma(), we don't need mlock_vma_pages_range() to verify the vma type - we know we're working with a stack. So, we can call directly into __mlock_vma_pages_range(), and remove the last make_pages_present() call site. Note that we don't use mm_populate() here, so we can't release the mmap_sem while allocating new stack pages. This is deemed acceptable, because the stack vmas grow by a bounded number of pages at a time, and these are anon pages so we don't have to read from disk to populate them. Signed-off-by:

After the MAP_POPULATE handling has been moved to mmap_region() call sites, the only remaining use of the flags argument is to pass the MAP_NORESERVE flag. This can be just as easily handled by do_mmap_pgoff(), so do that and remove the mmap_region() flags parameter. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: remove double parens] Signed-off-by:

When creating new mappings using the MAP_POPULATE / MAP_LOCKED flags (or with MCL_FUTURE in effect), we want to populate the pages within the newly created vmas. This may take a while as we may have to read pages from disk, so ideally we want to do this outside of the write-locked mmap_sem region. This change introduces mm_populate(), which is used to defer populating such mappings until after the mmap_sem write lock has been released. This is implemented as a generalization of the former do_mlock_pages(), which accomplished the same task but was using during mlock() / mlockall(). Signed-off-by:

We have many vma manipulation functions that are fast in the typical case, but can optionally be instructed to populate an unbounded number of ptes within the region they work on: - mmap with MAP_POPULATE or MAP_LOCKED flags; - remap_file_pages() with MAP_NONBLOCK not set or when working on a VM_LOCKED vma; - mmap_region() and all its wrappers when mlock(MCL_FUTURE) is in effect; - brk() when mlock(MCL_FUTURE) is in effect. Current code handles these pte operations locally, while the sourrounding code has to hold the mmap_sem write side since it's manipulating vmas. This means we're doing an unbounded amount of pte population work with mmap_sem held, and this causes problems as Andy Lutomirski reported (we've hit this at Google as well, though it's not entirely clear why people keep trying to use mlock(MCL_FUTURE) in the first place). I propose introducing a new mm_populate() function to do this pte population work after the mmap_sem has been released. mm_populate() does need to acquire the mmap_sem read side, but critically, it doesn't need to hold it continuously for the entire duration of the operation - it can drop it whenever things take too long (such as when hitting disk for a file read) and re-acquire it later on. The following patches are included - Patches 1 fixes some issues I noticed while working on the existing code. If needed, they could potentially go in before the rest of the patches. - Patch 2 introduces the new mm_populate() function and changes mmap_region() call sites to use it after they drop mmap_sem. This is inspired from Andy Lutomirski's proposal and is built as an extension of the work I had previously done for mlock() and mlockall() around v2.6.38-rc1. I had tried doing something similar at the time but had given up as there were so many do_mmap() call sites; the recent cleanups by Linus and Viro are a tremendous help here. - Patches 3-5 convert some of the less-obvious places doing unbounded pte populates to the new mm_populate() mechanism. - Patches 6-7 are code cleanups that are made possible by the mm_populate() work. In particular, they remove more code than the entire patch series added, which should be a good thing :) - Patch 8 is optional to this entire series. It only helps to deal more nicely with racy userspace programs that might modify their mappings while we're trying to populate them. It adds a new VM_POPULATE flag on the mappings we do want to populate, so that if userspace replaces them with mappings it doesn't want populated, mm_populate() won't populate those replacement mappings. This patch: Assorted small fixes. The first two are quite small: - Move check for vma->vm_private_data && !(vma->vm_flags & VM_NONLINEAR) within existing if (!(vma->vm_flags & VM_NONLINEAR)) block. Purely cosmetic. - In the VM_LOCKED case, when dropping PG_Mlocked for the over-mapped range, make sure we own the mmap_sem write lock around the munlock_vma_pages_range call as this manipulates the vma's vm_flags. Last fix requires a longer explanation. remap_file_pages() can do its work either through VM_NONLINEAR manipulation or by creating extra vmas. These two cases were inconsistent with each other (and ultimately, both wrong) as to exactly when did they fault in the newly mapped file pages: - In the VM_NONLINEAR case, new file pages would be populated if the MAP_NONBLOCK flag wasn't passed. If MAP_NONBLOCK was passed, new file pages wouldn't be populated even if the vma is already marked as VM_LOCKED. - In the linear (emulated) case, the work is passed to the mmap_region() function which would populate the pages if the vma is marked as VM_LOCKED, and would not otherwise - regardless of the value of the MAP_NONBLOCK flag, because MAP_POPULATE wasn't being passed to mmap_region(). The desired behavior is that we want the pages to be populated and locked if the vma is marked as VM_LOCKED, or to be populated if the MAP_NONBLOCK flag is not passed to remap_file_pages().

Now that balance_pgdat() is slightly tidied up, thanks to more capable pgdat_balanced(), it's become obvious that pgdat_balanced() is called to check the status, then break the loop if pgdat is balanced, just to be immediately called again. The second call is completely unnecessary, of course. The patch introduces pgdat_is_balanced boolean, which helps resolve the above suboptimal behavior, with the added benefit of slightly better documenting one other place in the function where we jump and skip lots of code.

Targeted (hard resp soft) reclaim has traditionally tried to scan one group with decreasing priority until nr_to_reclaim (SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pages) is reclaimed or all priorities are exhausted. The reclaim is then retried until the limit is met. This approach, however, doesn't work well with deeper hierarchies where groups higher in the hierarchy do not have any or only very few pages (this usually happens if those groups do not have any tasks and they have only re-parented pages after some of their children is removed). Those groups are reclaimed with decreasing priority pointlessly as there is nothing to reclaim from them. An easiest fix is to break out of the memcg iteration loop in shrink_zone only if the whole hierarchy has been visited or sufficient pages have been reclaimed. This is also more natural because the reclaimer expects that the hierarchy under the given root is reclaimed. As a result we can simplify the soft limit reclaim which does its own iteration.

Compaction uses the ALIGN macro incorrectly with the migrate scanner by adding pageblock_nr_pages to a PFN. It happened to work when initially implemented as the starting PFN was also aligned but with caching restarts and isolating in smaller chunks this is no longer always true. The impact is that the migrate scanner scans outside its current pageblock. As pfn_valid() is still checked properly it does not cause any failure and the impact of the bug is that in some cases it will scan more than necessary when it crosses a page boundary but by no more than COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX. It is highly unlikely this is even measurable but it's still wrong so this patch addresses the problem. Signed-off-by:

When ex-KSM pages are faulted from swap cache, the fault handler is not capable of re-establishing anon_vma-spanning KSM pages. In this case, a copy of the page is created instead, just like during a COW break. These freshly made copies are known to be exclusive to the faulting VMA and there is no reason to go look for this page in parent and sibling processes during rmap operations. Use page_add_new_anon_rmap() for these copies. This also puts them on the proper LRU lists and marks them SwapBacked, so we can get rid of doing this ad-hoc in the KSM copy code. Signed-off-by:

The restart logic for when reclaim operates back to back with compaction is currently applied on the lruvec level. But this does not make sense, because the container of interest for compaction is a zone as a whole, not the zone pages that are part of a certain memory cgroup. Negative impact is bounded. For one, the code checks that the lruvec has enough reclaim candidates, so it does not risk getting stuck on a condition that can not be fulfilled. And the unfairness of hammering on one particular memory cgroup to make progress in a zone will be amortized by the round robin manner in which reclaim goes through the memory cgroups. Still, this can lead to unnecessary allocation latencies when the code elects to restart on a hard to reclaim or small group when there are other, more reclaimable groups in the zone. Move this logic to the zone level and restart reclaim for all memory cgroups in a zone when compaction requires more free pages from it. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: no need for min_t] Signed-off-by:

Reclaim pressure balance between anon and file pages is calculated through a tuple of numerators and a shared denominator. Exceptional cases that want to force-scan anon or file pages configure the numerators and denominator such that one list is preferred, which is not necessarily the most obvious way: fraction[0] = 1; fraction[1] = 0; denominator = 1; goto out; Make this easier by making the force-scan cases explicit and use the fractionals only in case they are calculated from reclaim history.

A swappiness of 0 has a slightly different meaning for global reclaim (may swap if file cache really low) and memory cgroup reclaim (never swap, ever). In addition, global reclaim at highest priority will scan all LRU lists equal to their size and ignore other balancing heuristics. UNLESS swappiness forbids swapping, then the lists are balanced based on recent reclaim effectiveness. UNLESS file cache is running low, then anonymous pages are force-scanned. This (total mess of a) behaviour is implicit and not obvious from the way the code is organized. At least make it apparent in the code flow and document the conditions. It will be it easier to come up with sane semantics later. Signed-off-by:

In certain cases (kswapd reclaim, memcg target reclaim), a fixed minimum amount of pages is scanned from the LRU lists on each iteration, to make progress. Do not make this minimum bigger than the respective LRU list size, however, and save some busy work trying to isolate and reclaim pages that are not there. Empty LRU lists are quite common with memory cgroups in NUMA environments because there exists a set of LRU lists for each zone for each memory cgroup, while the memory of a single cgroup is expected to stay on just one node. The number of expected empty LRU lists is thus memcgs * (nodes - 1) * lru types Each attempt to reclaim from an empty LRU list does expensive size comparisons between lists, acquires the zone's lru lock etc. Avoid that.

Pull x86 mm changes from Peter Anvin: "This is a huge set of several partly interrelated (and concurrently developed) changes, which is why the branch history is messier than one would like. The *really* big items are two humonguous patchsets mostly developed by Yinghai Lu at my request, which completely revamps the way we create initial page tables. In particular, rather than estimating how much memory we will need for page tables and then build them into that memory -- a calculation that has shown to be incredibly fragile -- we now build them (on 64 bits) with the aid of a "pseudo-linear mode" -- a #PF handler which creates temporary page tables on demand. This has several advantages: 1. It makes it much easier to support things that need access to data very early (a followon patchset uses this to load microcode way early in the kernel startup). 2. It allows the kernel and all the kernel data objects to be invoked from above the 4 GB limit. This allows kdump to work on very large systems. 3. It greatly reduces the difference between Xen and native (Xen's equivalent of the #PF handler are the temporary page tables created by the domain builder), eliminating a bunch of fragile hooks.

Pull x86 cpu updates from Peter Anvin: "This is a corrected attempt at the x86/cpu branch, this time with the fixes in that makes it not break on KVM (current or past), or any other virtualizer which traps on this configuration.

Pull s390 update from Martin Schwidefsky: "The most prominent change in this patch set is the software dirty bit patch for s390. It removes __HAVE_ARCH_PAGE_TEST_AND_CLEAR_DIRTY and the page_test_and_clear_dirty primitive which makes the common memory management code a bit less obscure. Heiko fixed most of the PCI related fallout, more often than not missing GENERIC_HARDIRQS dependencies. Notable is one of the 3270 patches which adds an export to tty_io to be able to resize a tty. The rest is the usual bunch of cleanups and bug fixes." * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux: (42 commits) s390/module: Add missing R_390_NONE relocation type drivers/gpio: add missing GENERIC_HARDIRQ dependency drivers/input: add couple of missing GENERIC_HARDIRQS dependencies s390/cleanup: rename SPP to LPP s390/mm: implement software dirty bits s390/mm: Fix crst upgrade of mmap with MAP_FIXED s390/linker skript: discard exit.data at runtime drivers/media: add missing GENERIC_HARDIRQS dependency s390/bpf,jit: add vlan tag support drivers/net,AT91RM9200: add missing GENERIC_HARDIRQS dependency iucv: fix kernel panic at reboot s390/Kconfig: sort list of arch selected config options phylib: remove !S390 dependeny from Kconfig uio: remove !S390 dependency from Kconfig dasd: fix sysfs cleanup in dasd_generic_remove s390/pci: fix hotplug module init s390/pci: cleanup clp page allocation s390/pci: cleanup clp inline assembly s390/perf: cpum_cf: fallback to software sampling events s390/mm: provide PAGE_SHARED define ...
