It is a pity to have MAX_NUMNODES+MAX_NUMNODES tree roots statically allocated, particularly when very few users will ever actually tune merge_across_nodes 0 to use more than 1+1 of those trees. Not a big deal (only 16kB wasted on each machine with CONFIG_MAXSMP), but a pity. Start off with 1+1 statically allocated, then if merge_across_nodes is ever tuned, allocate for nr_node_ids+nr_node_ids. Do not attempt to free up the extra if it's tuned back, that would be a waste of effort. Signed-off-by:

I dislike the way in which "swapcache" gets used in do_swap_page(): there is always a page from swapcache there (even if maybe uncached by the time we lock it), but tests are made according to "swapcache". Rework that with "page != swapcache", as has been done in unuse_pte(). Signed-off-by:

Before establishing that KSM page migration was the cause of my WARN_ON_ONCE(page_mapped(page))s, I suspected that they came from the lack of a ksm_might_need_to_copy() in swapoff's unuse_pte() - which in many respects is equivalent to faulting in a page. In fact I've never caught that as the cause: but in theory it does at least need the KSM_RUN_UNMERGE check in ksm_might_need_to_copy(), to avoid bringing a KSM page back in when it's not supposed to be. I intended to copy how it's done in do_swap_page(), but have a strong aversion to how "swapcache" ends up being used there: rework it with "page != swapcache". Signed-off-by:

In "ksm: remove old stable nodes more thoroughly" I said that I'd never seen its WARN_ON_ONCE(page_mapped(page)). True at the time of writing, but it soon appeared once I tried fuller tests on the whole series. It turned out to be due to the KSM page migration itself: unmerge_and_ remove_all_rmap_items() failed to locate and replace all the KSM pages, because of that hiatus in page migration when old pte has been replaced by migration entry, but not yet by new pte. follow_page() finds no page at that instant, but a KSM page reappears shortly after, without a fault. Add FOLL_MIGRATION flag, so follow_page() can do migration_entry_wait() for KSM's break_cow(). I'd have preferred to avoid another flag, and do it every time, in case someone else makes the same easy mistake; but did not find another transgressor (the common get_user_pages() is of course safe), and cannot be sure that every follow_page() caller is prepared to sleep - ia64's xencomm_vtop()? Now, THP's wait_split_huge_page() can already sleep there, since anon_vma locking was changed to mutex, but maybe that's somehow excluded. Signed-off-by:

Think of struct rmap_item as an extension of struct page (restricted to MADV_MERGEABLE areas): there may be a lot of them, we need to keep them small, especially on 32-bit architectures of limited lowmem. Siting "int nid" after "unsigned int checksum" works nicely on 64-bit, making no change to its 64-byte struct rmap_item; but bloats the 32-bit struct rmap_item from (nicely cache-aligned) 32 bytes to 36 bytes, which rounds up to 40 bytes once allocated from slab. We'd better avoid that. Hey, I only just remembered that the anon_vma pointer in struct rmap_item has no purpose until the rmap_item is hung from a stable tree node (which has its own nid field); and rmap_item's nid field no purpose than to say which tree root to tell rb_erase() when unlinking from an unstable tree. Double them up in a union. There's just one place where we set anon_vma early (when we already hold mmap_sem): now we must remove tree_rmap_item from its unstable tree there, before overwriting nid. No need to spatter BUG()s around: we'd be seeing oopses if this were wrong. Signed-off-by:

An inconsistency emerged in reviewing the NUMA node changes to KSM: when meeting a page from the wrong NUMA node in a stable tree, we say that it's okay for comparisons, but not as a leaf for merging; whereas when meeting a page from the wrong NUMA node in an unstable tree, we bail out immediately. Now, it might be that a wrong NUMA node in an unstable tree is more likely to correlate with instablility (different content, with rbnode now misplaced) than page migration; but even so, we are accustomed to instablility in the unstable tree. Without strong evidence for which strategy is generally better, I'd rather be consistent with what's done in the stable tree: accept a page from the wrong NUMA node for comparison, but not as a leaf for merging.

Fix several mempolicy leaks in the tmpfs mount logic. These leaks are slow - on the order of one object leaked per mount attempt. Leak 1 (umount doesn't free mpol allocated in mount): while true; do mount -t tmpfs -o mpol=interleave,size=100M nodev /mnt umount /mnt done Leak 2 (errors parsing remount options will leak mpol): mount -t tmpfs -o size=100M nodev /mnt while true; do mount -o remount,mpol=interleave,size=x /mnt 2> /dev/null done umount /mnt Leak 3 (multiple mpol per mount leak mpol): while true; do mount -t tmpfs -o mpol=interleave,mpol=interleave,size=100M nodev /mnt umount /mnt done This patch fixes all of the above.

The tmpfs remount logic preserves filesystem mempolicy if the mpol=M option is not specified in the remount request. A new policy can be specified if mpol=M is given. Before this patch remounting an mpol bound tmpfs without specifying mpol= mount option in the remount request would set the filesystem's mempolicy object to a freed mempolicy object. To reproduce the problem boot a DEBUG_PAGEALLOC kernel and run: # mkdir /tmp/x # mount -t tmpfs -o size=100M,mpol=interleave nodev /tmp/x # grep /tmp/x /proc/mounts nodev /tmp/x tmpfs rw,relatime,size=102400k,mpol=interleave:0-3 0 0 # mount -o remount,size=200M nodev /tmp/x # grep /tmp/x /proc/mounts nodev /tmp/x tmpfs rw,relatime,size=204800k,mpol=??? 0 0 # note ? garbage in mpol=... output above # dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/x/f count=1 # panic here Panic: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: [< (null)>] (null) [...] Oops: 0010 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC Call Trace: mpol_shared_policy_init+0xa5/0x160 shmem_get_inode+0x209/0x270 shmem_mknod+0x3e/0xf0 shmem_create+0x18/0x20 vfs_create+0xb5/0x130 do_last+0x9a1/0xea0 path_openat+0xb3/0x4d0 do_filp_open+0x42/0xa0 do_sys_open+0xfe/0x1e0 compat_sys_open+0x1b/0x20 cstar_dispatch+0x7/0x1f Non-debug kernels will not crash immediately because referencing the dangling mpol will not cause a fault. Instead the filesystem will reference a freed mempolicy object, which will cause unpredictable behavior. The problem boils down to a dropped mpol reference below if shmem_parse_options() does not allocate a new mpol: config = *sbinfo shmem_parse_options(data, &config, true) mpol_put(sbinfo->mpol) sbinfo->mpol = config.mpol /* BUG: saves unreferenced mpol */ This patch avoids the crash by not releasing the mempolicy if shmem_parse_options() doesn't create a new mpol. How far back does this issue go? I see it in both 2.6.36 and 3.3. I did not look back further. Signed-off-by: -

Rob van der Heij reported the following (paraphrased) on private mail. The scenario is that I want to avoid backups to fill up the page cache and purge stuff that is more likely to be used again (this is with s390x Linux on z/VM, so I don't give it as much memory that we don't care anymore). So I have something with LD_PRELOAD that intercepts the close() call (from tar, in this case) and issues a posix_fadvise() just before closing the file. This mostly works, except for small files (less than 14 pages) that remains in page cache after the face. Unfortunately Rob has not had a chance to test this exact patch but the test program below should be reproducing the problem he described. The issue is the per-cpu pagevecs for LRU additions. If the pages are added by one CPU but fadvise() is called on another then the pages remain resident as the invalidate_mapping_pages() only drains the local pagevecs via its call to pagevec_release(). The user-visible effect is that a program that uses fadvise() properly is not obeyed. A possible fix for this is to put the necessary smarts into invalidate_mapping_pages() to globally drain the LRU pagevecs if a pagevec page could not be discarded. The downside with this is that an inode cache shrink would send a global IPI and memory pressure potentially causing global IPI storms is very undesirable. Instead, this patch adds a check during fadvise(POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED) to check if invalidate_mapping_pages() discarded all the requested pages. If a subset of pages are discarded it drains the LRU pagevecs and tries again. If the second attempt fails, it assumes it is due to the pages being mapped, locked or dirty and does not care. With this patch, an application using fadvise() correctly will be obeyed but there is a downside that a malicious application can force the kernel to send global IPIs and increase overhead. If accepted, I would like this to be considered as a -stable candidate. It's not an urgent issue but it's a system call that is not working as advertised which is weak. The following test program demonstrates the problem. It should never report that pages are still resident but will without this patch. It assumes that CPU 0 and 1 exist. int main() { int fd; int pagesize = getpagesize(); ssize_t written = 0, expected; char *buf; unsigned char *vec; int resident, i; cpu_set_t set; /* Prepare a buffer for writing */ expected = FILESIZE_PAGES * pagesize; buf = malloc(expected + 1); if (buf == NULL) { printf("ENOMEM\n"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } buf[expected] = 0; memset(buf, 'a', expected); /* Prepare the mincore vec */ vec = malloc(FILESIZE_PAGES); if (vec == NULL) { printf("ENOMEM\n"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } /* Bind ourselves to CPU 0 */ CPU_ZERO(&set); CPU_SET(0, &set); if (sched_setaffinity(getpid(), sizeof(set), &set) == -1) { perror("sched_setaffinity"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } /* open file, unlink and write buffer */ fd = open("fadvise-test-file", O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_RDWR); if (fd == -1) { perror("open"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } unlink("fadvise-test-file"); while (written < expected) { ssize_t this_write; this_write = write(fd, buf + written, expected - written); if (this_write == -1) { perror("write"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } written += this_write; } free(buf); /* * Force ourselves to another CPU. If fadvise only flushes the local * CPUs pagevecs then the fadvise will fail to discard all file pages */ CPU_ZERO(&set); CPU_SET(1, &set); if (sched_setaffinity(getpid(), sizeof(set), &set) == -1) { perror("sched_setaffinity"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } /* sync and fadvise to discard the page cache */ fsync(fd); if (posix_fadvise(fd, 0, expected, POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED) == -1) { perror("posix_fadvise"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } /* map the file and use mincore to see which parts of it are resident */ buf = mmap(NULL, expected, PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0); if (buf == NULL) { perror("mmap"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } if (mincore(buf, expected, vec) == -1) { perror("mincore"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } /* Check residency */ for (i = 0, resident = 0; i < FILESIZE_PAGES; i++) { if (vec[i]) resident++; } if (resident != 0) { printf("Nr unexpected pages resident: %d\n", resident); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } munmap(buf, expected); close(fd); free(vec); exit(EXIT_SUCCESS); } Signed-off-by:Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Reported-by:

We at SGI have a need to address some very high physical address ranges with our GRU (global reference unit), sometimes across partitioned machine boundaries and sometimes with larger addresses than the cpu supports. We do this with the aid of our own 'extended vma' module which mimics the vma. When something (either unmap or exit) frees an 'extended vma' we use the mmu notifiers to clean them up. We had been able to mimic the functions __mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start() and __mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end() by locking the per-mm lock and walking the per-mm notifier list. But with the change to a global srcu lock (static in mmu_notifier.c) we can no longer do that. Our module has no access to that lock. So we request that these two functions be exported.

This change adds a follow_page_mask function which is equivalent to follow_page, but with an extra page_mask argument. follow_page_mask sets *page_mask to HPAGE_PMD_NR - 1 when it encounters a THP page, and to 0 in other cases. __get_user_pages() makes use of this in order to accelerate populating THP ranges - that is, when both the pages and vmas arrays are NULL, we don't need to iterate HPAGE_PMD_NR times to cover a single THP page (and we also avoid taking mm->page_table_lock that many times).

error_states[] has two separate states "unevictable LRU page" and "mlocked LRU page", and the former one has the higher priority now. But because of that the latter one is rarely chosen because pages with PageMlocked highly likely have PG_unevictable set. On the other hand, PG_unevictable without PageMlocked is common for ramfs or SHM_LOCKed shared memory, so reversing the priority of these two states helps us clearly distinguish them. Signed-off-by:

memory_failure() can't handle memory errors on mlocked pages correctly, because page_action() judges such errors as ones on "unknown pages" instead of ones on "unevictable LRU page" or "mlocked LRU page". In order to determine page_state page_action() checks page flags at the timing of the judgement, but such page flags are not the same with those just after memory_failure() is called, because memory_failure() does unmapping of the error pages before doing page_action(). This unmapping changes the page state, especially page_remove_rmap() (called from try_to_unmap_one()) clears PG_mlocked, so page_action() can't catch mlocked pages after that. With this patch, we store the page flag of the error page before doing unmap, and (only) if the first check with page flags at the time decided the error page is unknown, we do the second check with the stored page flag. This implementation doesn't change error handling for the page types for which the first check can determine the page state correctly. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: tweak comments] Signed-off-by:

Recently, Luigi reported there are lots of free swap space when OOM happens. It's easily reproduced on zram-over-swap, where many instance of memory hogs are running and laptop_mode is enabled. He said there was no problem when he disabled laptop_mode. The problem when I investigate problem is following as. Assumption for easy explanation: There are no page cache page in system because they all are already reclaimed. 1. try_to_free_pages disable may_writepage when laptop_mode is enabled. 2. shrink_inactive_list isolates victim pages from inactive anon lru list. 3. shrink_page_list adds them to swapcache via add_to_swap but it doesn't pageout because sc->may_writepage is 0 so the page is rotated back into inactive anon lru list. The add_to_swap made the page Dirty by SetPageDirty. 4. 3 couldn't reclaim any pages so do_try_to_free_pages increase priority and retry reclaim with higher priority. 5. shrink_inactlive_list try to isolate victim pages from inactive anon lru list but got failed because it try to isolate pages with ISOLATE_CLEAN mode but inactive anon lru list is full of dirty pages by 3 so it just returns without any reclaim progress. 6. do_try_to_free_pages doesn't set may_writepage due to zero total_scanned. Because sc->nr_scanned is increased by shrink_page_list but we don't call shrink_page_list in 5 due to short of isolated pages. Above loop is continued until OOM happens. The problem didn't happen before [1] was merged because old logic's isolatation in shrink_inactive_list was successful and tried to call shrink_page_list to pageout them but it still ends up failed to page out by may_writepage. But important point is that sc->nr_scanned was increased although we couldn't swap out them so do_try_to_free_pages could set may_writepages. Since commit f80c0673 ("mm: zone_reclaim: make isolate_lru_page() filter-aware") was introduced, it's not a good idea any more to depends on only the number of scanned pages for setting may_writepage. So this patch adds new trigger point of setting may_writepage as below DEF_PRIOIRTY - 2 which is used to show the significant memory pressure in VM so it's good fit for our purpose which would be better to lose power saving or clickety rather than OOM killing.

The fact that mlock calls get_user_pages, and get_user_pages might call mlock when expanding a stack looks like a potential recursion. However, mlock makes sure the requested range is already contained within a vma, so no stack expansion will actually happen from mlock. Should this ever change: the stack expansion mlocks only the newly expanded range and so will not result in recursive expansion. Signed-off-by:

An inactive file list is considered low when its active counterpart is bigger, regardless of whether it is a global zone LRU list or a memcg zone LRU list. The only difference is in how the LRU size is assessed. get_lru_size() does the right thing for both global and memcg reclaim situations. Get rid of inactive_file_is_low_global() and mem_cgroup_inactive_file_is_low() by using get_lru_size() and compare the numbers in common code. Signed-off-by:
