NODEMASK_ALLOC is used to allocate a nodemask bitmap, and it does it by first determining whether it should be allocated on the stack or dynamically, depending on NODES_SHIFT. Right now, it goes the dynamic path whenever the nodemask_t is above 32 bytes. Although we could bump it to a reasonable value, the largest a nodemask_t can get is 128 bytes, so since __nr_hugepages_store_common is called from a rather short stack we can just get rid of the NODEMASK_ALLOC call here. This reduces some code churn and complexity. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190402133415.21983-1-osalvador@suse.deSigned-off-by:

The number of node specific huge pages can be set via a file such as: /sys/devices/system/node/node1/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages When a node specific value is specified, the global number of huge pages must also be adjusted. This adjustment is calculated as the specified node specific value + (global value - current node value). If the node specific value provided by the user is large enough, this calculation could overflow an unsigned long leading to a smaller than expected number of huge pages. To fix, check the calculation for overflow. If overflow is detected, use ULONG_MAX as the requested value. This is inline with the user request to allocate as many huge pages as possible. It was also noticed that the above calculation was done outside the hugetlb_lock. Therefore, the values could be inconsistent and result in underflow. To fix, the calculation is moved within the routine set_max_huge_pages() where the lock is held. In addition, the code in __nr_hugepages_store_common() which tries to handle the case of not being able to allocate a node mask would likely result in incorrect behavior. Luckily, it is very unlikely we will ever take this path. If we do, simply return ENOMEM. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190328220533.19884-1-mike.kravetz@oracle.comSigned-off-by:

342332e6 ("mm/page_alloc.c: introduce kernelcore=mirror option") and later patches rewrote the calculation of node spanned pages. e506b996 ("mem-hotplug: fix node spanned pages when we have a movable node"), but the current code still has problems, When we have a node with only zone_movable and the node id is not zero, the size of node spanned pages is double added. That's because we have an empty normal zone, and zone_start_pfn or zone_end_pfn is not between arch_zone_lowest_possible_pfn and arch_zone_highest_possible_pfn, so we need to use clamp to constrain the range just like the commit <96e907d1> (bootmem: Reimplement __absent_pages_in_range() using for_each_mem_pfn_range()). e.g. Zone ranges: DMA [mem 0x0000000000001000-0x0000000000ffffff] DMA32 [mem 0x0000000001000000-0x00000000ffffffff] Normal [mem 0x0000000100000000-0x000000023fffffff] Movable zone start for each node Node 0: 0x0000000100000000 Node 1: 0x0000000140000000 Early memory node ranges node 0: [mem 0x0000000000001000-0x000000000009efff] node 0: [mem 0x0000000000100000-0x00000000bffdffff] node 0: [mem 0x0000000100000000-0x000000013fffffff] node 1: [mem 0x0000000140000000-0x000000023fffffff] node 0 DMA spanned:0xfff present:0xf9e absent:0x61 node 0 DMA32 spanned:0xff000 present:0xbefe0 absent:0x40020 node 0 Normal spanned:0 present:0 absent:0 node 0 Movable spanned:0x40000 present:0x40000 absent:0 On node 0 totalpages(node_present_pages): 1048446 node_spanned_pages:1310719 node 1 DMA spanned:0 present:0 absent:0 node 1 DMA32 spanned:0 present:0 absent:0 node 1 Normal spanned:0x100000 present:0x100000 absent:0 node 1 Movable spanned:0x100000 present:0x100000 absent:0 On node 1 totalpages(node_present_pages): 2097152 node_spanned_pages:2097152 Memory: 6967796K/12582392K available (16388K kernel code, 3686K rwdata, 4468K rodata, 2160K init, 10444K bss, 5614596K reserved, 0K cma-reserved) It shows that the current memory of node 1 is double added.

There are three tracepoints using this template, which are mm_vmscan_direct_reclaim_begin, mm_vmscan_memcg_reclaim_begin, mm_vmscan_memcg_softlimit_reclaim_begin. Regarding mm_vmscan_direct_reclaim_begin, sc.may_writepage is !laptop_mode, that's a static setting, and reclaim_idx is derived from gfp_mask which is already show in this tracepoint. Regarding mm_vmscan_memcg_reclaim_begin, may_writepage is !laptop_mode too, and reclaim_idx is (MAX_NR_ZONES-1), which are both static value. mm_vmscan_memcg_softlimit_reclaim_begin is the same with mm_vmscan_memcg_reclaim_begin.

MADV_DONTNEED is handled with mmap_sem taken in read mode. We call page_mkclean without holding mmap_sem. MADV_DONTNEED implies that pages in the region are unmapped and subsequent access to the pages in that range is handled as a new page fault. This implies that if we don't have parallel access to the region when MADV_DONTNEED is run we expect those range to be unallocated. w.r.t page_mkclean() we need to make sure that we don't break the MADV_DONTNEED semantics. MADV_DONTNEED check for pmd_none without holding pmd_lock. This implies we skip the pmd if we temporarily mark pmd none. Avoid doing that while marking the page clean. Keep the sequence same for dax too even though we don't support MADV_DONTNEED for dax mapping The bug was noticed by code review and I didn't observe any failures w.r.t test run.

A discussion of the overall problem is below. As mentioned in patch 0001, the steps are to fix the problem are: 1) Provide put_user_page*() routines, intended to be used for releasing pages that were pinned via get_user_pages*(). 2) Convert all of the call sites for get_user_pages*(), to invoke put_user_page*(), instead of put_page(). This involves dozens of call sites, and will take some time. 3) After (2) is complete, use get_user_pages*() and put_user_page*() to implement tracking of these pages. This tracking will be separate from the existing struct page refcounting. 4) Use the tracking and identification of these pages, to implement special handling (especially in writeback paths) when the pages are backed by a filesystem. Overview ======== Some kernel components (file systems, device drivers) need to access memory that is specified via process virtual address. For a long time, the API to achieve that was get_user_pages ("GUP") and its variations. However, GUP has critical limitations that have been overlooked; in particular, GUP does not interact correctly with filesystems in all situations. That means that file-backed memory + GUP is a recipe for potential problems, some of which have already occurred in the field. GUP was first introduced for Direct IO (O_DIRECT), allowing filesystem code to get the struct page behind a virtual address and to let storage hardware perform a direct copy to or from that page. This is a short-lived access pattern, and as such, the window for a concurrent writeback of GUP'd page was small enough that there were not (we think) any reported problems. Also, userspace was expected to understand and accept that Direct IO was not synchronized with memory-mapped access to that data, nor with any process address space changes such as munmap(), mremap(), etc. Over the years, more GUP uses have appeared (virtualization, device drivers, RDMA) that can keep the pages they get via GUP for a long period of time (seconds, minutes, hours, days, ...). This long-term pinning makes an underlying design problem more obvious. In fact, there are a number of key problems inherent to GUP: Interactions with file systems ============================== File systems expect to be able to write back data, both to reclaim pages, and for data integrity. Allowing other hardware (NICs, GPUs, etc) to gain write access to the file memory pages means that such hardware can dirty the pages, without the filesystem being aware. This can, in some cases (depending on filesystem, filesystem options, block device, block device options, and other variables), lead to data corruption, and also to kernel bugs of the form: kernel BUG at /build/linux-fQ94TU/linux-4.4.0/fs/ext4/inode.c:1899! backtrace: ext4_writepage __writepage write_cache_pages ext4_writepages do_writepages __writeback_single_inode writeback_sb_inodes __writeback_inodes_wb wb_writeback wb_workfn process_one_work worker_thread kthread ret_from_fork ...which is due to the file system asserting that there are still buffer heads attached: ({ \ BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)); \ ((struct buffer_head *)page_private(page)); \ }) Dave Chinner's description of this is very clear: "The fundamental issue is that ->page_mkwrite must be called on every write access to a clean file backed page, not just the first one. How long the GUP reference lasts is irrelevant, if the page is clean and you need to dirty it, you must call ->page_mkwrite before it is marked writeable and dirtied. Every. Time." This is just one symptom of the larger design problem: real filesystems that actually write to a backing device, do not actually support get_user_pages() being called on their pages, and letting hardware write directly to those pages--even though that pattern has been going on since about 2005 or so. Long term GUP ============= Long term GUP is an issue when FOLL_WRITE is specified to GUP (so, a writeable mapping is created), and the pages are file-backed. That can lead to filesystem corruption. What happens is that when a file-backed page is being written back, it is first mapped read-only in all of the CPU page tables; the file system then assumes that nobody can write to the page, and that the page content is therefore stable. Unfortunately, the GUP callers generally do not monitor changes to the CPU pages tables; they instead assume that the following pattern is safe (it's not): get_user_pages() Hardware can keep a reference to those pages for a very long time, and write to it at any time. Because "hardware" here means "devices that are not a CPU", this activity occurs without any interaction with the kernel's file system code. for each page set_page_dirty put_page() In fact, the GUP documentation even recommends that pattern. Anyway, the file system assumes that the page is stable (nothing is writing to the page), and that is a problem: stable page content is necessary for many filesystem actions during writeback, such as checksum, encryption, RAID striping, etc. Furthermore, filesystem features like COW (copy on write) or snapshot also rely on being able to use a new page for as memory for that memory range inside the file. Corruption during write back is clearly possible here. To solve that, one idea is to identify pages that have active GUP, so that we can use a bounce page to write stable data to the filesystem. The filesystem would work on the bounce page, while any of the active GUP might write to the original page. This would avoid the stable page violation problem, but note that it is only part of the overall solution, because other problems remain. Other filesystem features that need to replace the page with a new one can be inhibited for pages that are GUP-pinned. This will, however, alter and limit some of those filesystem features. The only fix for that would be to require GUP users to monitor and respond to CPU page table updates. Subsystems such as ODP and HMM do this, for example. This aspect of the problem is still under discussion. Direct IO ========= Direct IO can cause corruption, if userspace does Direct-IO that writes to a range of virtual addresses that are mmap'd to a file. The pages written to are file-backed pages that can be under write back, while the Direct IO is taking place. Here, Direct IO races with a write back: it calls GUP before page_mkclean() has replaced the CPU pte with a read-only entry. The race window is pretty small, which is probably why years have gone by before we noticed this problem: Direct IO is generally very quick, and tends to finish up before the filesystem gets around to do anything with the page contents. However, it's still a real problem. The solution is to never let GUP return pages that are under write back, but instead, force GUP to take a write fault on those pages. That way, GUP will properly synchronize with the active write back. This does not change the required GUP behavior, it just avoids that race. Details ======= Introduces put_user_page(), which simply calls put_page(). This provides a way to update all get_user_pages*() callers, so that they call put_user_page(), instead of put_page(). Also introduces put_user_pages(), and a few dirty/locked variations, as a replacement for release_pages(), and also as a replacement for open-coded loops that release multiple pages. These may be used for subsequent performance improvements, via batching of pages to be released. This is the first step of fixing a problem (also described in [1] and [2]) with interactions between get_user_pages ("gup") and filesystems. Problem description: let's start with a bug report. Below, is what happens sometimes, under memory pressure, when a driver pins some pages via gup, and then marks those pages dirty, and releases them. Note that the gup documentation actually recommends that pattern. The problem is that the filesystem may do a writeback while the pages were gup-pinned, and then the filesystem believes that the pages are clean. So, when the driver later marks the pages as dirty, that conflicts with the filesystem's page tracking and results in a BUG(), like this one that I experienced: kernel BUG at /build/linux-fQ94TU/linux-4.4.0/fs/ext4/inode.c:1899! backtrace: ext4_writepage __writepage write_cache_pages ext4_writepages do_writepages __writeback_single_inode writeback_sb_inodes __writeback_inodes_wb wb_writeback wb_workfn process_one_work worker_thread kthread ret_from_fork ...which is due to the file system asserting that there are still buffer heads attached: ({ \ BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)); \ ((struct buffer_head *)page_private(page)); \ }) Dave Chinner's description of this is very clear: "The fundamental issue is that ->page_mkwrite must be called on every write access to a clean file backed page, not just the first one.

Patch series "Fix free/allocation of runtime gigantic pages", v8. This series fixes sh and sparc that did not advertise their gigantic page support and then were not able to allocate and free those pages at runtime. It renames MEMORY_ISOLATION && COMPACTION || CMA condition into the more accurate CONTIG_ALLOC, since it allows the definition of alloc_contig_range function. Finally, it then fixes the wrong definition of ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE config that, without MEMORY_ISOLATION && COMPACTION || CMA defined, did not allow architectures to free boottime allocated gigantic pages although unrelated. This patch (of 4): sh actually supports gigantic pages and selecting ARCH_HAS_GIGANTIC_PAGE allows it to allocate and free gigantic pages at runtime. At least sdk7786_defconfig exposes such a configuration with huge pages of 64MB, pages of 4KB and MAX_ORDER = 11: HPAGE_SHIFT (26) - PAGE_SHIFT (12) = 14 >= MAX_ORDER (11) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190327063626.18421-2-alex@ghiti.frSigned-off-by:

Patch series "provide a generic free_initmem implementation", v2. Many architectures implement free_initmem() in exactly the same or very similar way: they wrap the call to free_initmem_default() with sometimes different 'poison' parameter. These patches switch those architectures to use a generic implementation that does free_initmem_default(POISON_FREE_INITMEM). This was inspired by Christoph's patches for free_initrd_mem [1] and I shamelessly copied changelog entries from his patches :) [1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190213174621.29297-1-hch@lst.de/ This patch (of 2): For most architectures free_initmem just a wrapper for the same free_initmem_default(-1) call.

Patch series "initramfs tidyups". I've spent some time chasing down behavior in initramfs and found plenty of opportunity to improve the code. A first stab on that is contained in this series. This patch (of 7): We free the initrd memory for all successful or error cases except for the case where opening /initrd.image fails, which looks like an oversight. Steven said: : This also changes the behaviour when CONFIG_INITRAMFS_FORCE is enabled : - specifically it means that the initrd is freed (previously it was : ignored and never freed). But that seems like reasonable behaviour and : the previous behaviour looks like another oversight. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190213174621.29297-3-hch@lst.deSigned-off-by:

Patch series "mm: memcontrol: clean up the LRU counts tracking". The memcg LRU stats usage is currently a bit messy. Memcg has private per-zone counters because reclaim needs zone granularity sometimes, but we also have plenty of users that need to awkwardly sum them up to node or memcg granularity. Meanwhile the canonical per-memcg vmstats do not track the LRU counts (NR_INACTIVE_ANON etc.) as you'd expect. This series enables LRU count tracking in the per-memcg vmstats array such that lruvec_page_state() and memcg_page_state() work on the enum node_stat_item items for the LRU counters. Then it converts all the callers that don't specifically need per-zone numbers over to that. This patch (of 6): The memcg code currently maintains private per-zone breakdowns of the LRU counters. This is necessary for reclaim decisions which are still zone-based, but there are a variety of users of these counters that only want the aggregate per-lruvec or per-memcg LRU counts, and they need to painfully sum up the zone counters on each request for that. These would be better served using the memcg vmstats arrays, which track VM statistics at the desired scope already. They just don't have the LRU counts right now. So to kick off the conversion, begin tracking LRU counts in those. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190228163020.24100-2-hannes@cmpxchg.orgSigned-off-by:

pfn_valid_within() calls pfn_valid() when CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE making it redundant for both definitions (w/wo CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG) of the helper pfn_to_online_page() which either calls pfn_valid() or pfn_valid_within(). pfn_valid_within() being 1 when !CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE is irrelevant either way.

Only mm_compaction_isolate_{free, migrate}pages may be used when CONFIG_COMPACTION is not set. All others are used only when CONFIG_COMPACTION is set. After this change, if CONFIG_COMPACTION is not set, the tracepoints that only work when CONFIG_COMPACTION is set will not be exposed to userspace. Without this change, they will always be exposed in debugfs whether CONFIG_COMPACTION is set or not. This is an improvement.

Currently one bit in cma bitmap represents number of pages rather than one page, cma->count means cma size in pages. So to find available pages via find_next_zero_bit()/find_next_bit() we should use cma size not in pages but in bits although current free pages number is correct due to zero value of order_per_bit. Once order_per_bit is changed the bitmap status will be incorrect. The size input in cma_debug_show_areas() is not correct. It will affect the available pages at some position to debug the failure issue. This is an example with order_per_bit = 1 Before this change: [ 4.120060] cma: number of available pages: 1@93+4@108+7@121+7@137+7@153+7@169+7@185+7@201+3@213+3@221+3@229+3@237+3@245+3@253+3@261+3@269+3@277+3@285+3@293+3@301+3@309+3@317+3@325+19@333+15@369+512@512=> 638 free of 1024 total pages After this change: [ 4.143234] cma: number of available pages: 2@93+8@108+14@121+14@137+14@153+14@169+14@185+14@201+6@213+6@221+6@229+6@237+6@245+6@253+6@261+6@269+6@277+6@285+6@293+6@301+6@309+6@317+6@325+38@333+30@369=> 252 free of 1024 total pages Obviously the bitmap status before is incorrect.

In node_states_check_changes_online(), N_HIGH_MEMORY is used to substitute ZONE_HIGHMEM directly. This is not right. N_HIGH_MEMORY is to mark the memory state of node. Here zone index is checked, which should be compared with 'ZONE_HIGHMEM' accordingly. Replace it with ZONE_HIGHMEM. This is a code cleanup - no known runtime effects.

On x86_64, 1GB-hugetlb pages could never be offlined due to the fact that hugepage_migration_supported() returned false for PUD_SHIFT. So whenever we wanted to offline a memblock containing a gigantic hugetlb page, we never got beyond has_unmovable_pages() check. This changed with [1], where now we also return true for PUD_SHIFT. After that patch, the check in has_unmovable_pages() and scan_movable_pages() returned true, but we still had a final barrier in do_migrate_range(): if (compound_order(head) > PFN_SECTION_SHIFT) { ret = -EBUSY; break; } This is not really nice, and we do not really need it. It is perfectly possible to migrate a gigantic page as long as another node has a spare gigantic page for us. In alloc_huge_page_nodemask(), we calculate the __real__ number of free pages, and if any, we try to dequeue one from another node. This all works fine when we do have another node with a spare gigantic page, but if that is not the case, alloc_huge_page_nodemask() ends up calling alloc_migrate_huge_page() which bails out if the wanted page is gigantic. That is mainly because finding a 1GB (or even 16GB on powerpc) contiguous memory is quite unlikely when the system has been running for a while. In that situation, we will keep looping forever because scan_movable_pages() will give us the same page and we will fail again because there is no node where we can dequeue a gigantic page from. This is not nice, and it has been raised that we might want to treat -ENOMEM as a fatal error in do_migrate_range(), but this has to be checked further. Anyway, I would tend say that this is the administrator's job, to make sure that the system can keep up with the memory to be offlined, so that would mean that if we want to use gigantic pages, make sure that the other nodes have at least enough gigantic pages to keep up in case we need to offline memory.
