online_pages() is called from memory_block_action() when a user requests to online a memory block via sysfs. This function needs to return a proper error value in case of error. Signed-off-by:

min_free_kbytes is updated during memory hotplug (by init_per_zone_wmark_min) currently which is right thing to do in most cases but this could be unexpected if admin increased the value to prevent from allocation failures and the new min_free_kbytes would be decreased as a result of memory hotadd. This patch saves the user defined value and allows updating min_free_kbytes only if it is higher than the saved one. A warning is printed when the new value is ignored. Signed-off-by:

Now memcg has the same life cycle with its corresponding cgroup, and a cgroup is freed via RCU and then mem_cgroup_css_free() will be called in a work function, so we can simply call __mem_cgroup_free() in mem_cgroup_css_free(). This actually reverts commit 59927fb9 ("memcg: free mem_cgroup by RCU to fix oops"). Signed-off-by:

Use css_get/put instead of mem_cgroup_get/put. A simple replacement will do. The historical reason that memcg has its own refcnt instead of always using css_get/put, is that cgroup couldn't be removed if there're still css refs, so css refs can't be used as long-lived reference. The situation has changed so that rmdir a cgroup will succeed regardless css refs, but won't be freed until css refs goes down to 0. Signed-off-by:

Use css_get/put instead of mem_cgroup_get/put. We can't do a simple replacement, because here mem_cgroup_put() is called during mem_cgroup_css_free(), while mem_cgroup_css_free() won't be called until css refcnt goes down to 0. Instead we increment css refcnt in mem_cgroup_css_offline(), and then check if there's still kmem charges. If not, css refcnt will be decremented immediately, otherwise the refcnt will be released after the last kmem allocation is uncahred. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: tweak comment] Signed-off-by:

Li Zefan authored
Use css_get()/css_put() instead of mem_cgroup_get()/mem_cgroup_put(). There are two things being done in the current code: First, we acquired a css_ref to make sure that the underlying cgroup would not go away. That is a short lived reference, and it is put as soon as the cache is created. At this point, we acquire a long-lived per-cache memcg reference count to guarantee that the memcg will still be alive. so it is: enqueue: css_get create : memcg_get, css_put destroy: memcg_put So we only need to get rid of the memcg_get, change the memcg_put to css_put, and get rid of the now extra css_put.

Use css_get/css_put instead of mem_cgroup_get/put. Note, if at the same time someone is moving @current to a different cgroup and removing the old cgroup, css_tryget() may return false, and sock->sk_cgrp won't be initialized, which is fine. Signed-off-by:

Michal Hocko authored
mem_cgroup_css_online calls mem_cgroup_put if memcg_init_kmem fails. This is not correct because only memcg_propagate_kmem takes an additional reference while mem_cgroup_sockets_init is allowed to fail as well (although no current implementation fails) but it doesn't take any reference. This all suggests that it should be memcg_propagate_kmem that should clean up after itself so this patch moves mem_cgroup_put over there. Unfortunately this is not that easy (as pointed out by Li Zefan) because memcg_kmem_mark_dead marks the group dead (KMEM_ACCOUNTED_DEAD) if it is marked active (KMEM_ACCOUNTED_ACTIVE) which is the case even if memcg_propagate_kmem fails so the additional reference is dropped in that case in kmem_cgroup_destroy which means that the reference would be dropped two times. The easiest way then would be to simply remove mem_cgrroup_put from mem_cgroup_css_online and rely on kmem_cgroup_destroy doing the right thing. Signed-off-by:

This reverts commit e4715f01. mem_cgroup_put is hierarchy aware so mem_cgroup_put(memcg) already drops an additional reference from all parents so the additional mem_cgrroup_put(parent) potentially causes use-after-free. Signed-off-by:

After the patch "mm: vmscan: Flatten kswapd priority loop" was merged the scanning priority of kswapd changed. The priority now rises until it is scanning enough pages to meet the high watermark. shrink_inactive_list sets ZONE_WRITEBACK if a number of pages were encountered under writeback but this value is scaled based on the priority. As kswapd frequently scans with a higher priority now it is relatively easy to set ZONE_WRITEBACK. This patch removes the scaling and treates writeback pages similar to how it treats unqueued dirty pages and congested pages. The user-visible effect should be that kswapd will writeback fewer pages from reclaim context. Signed-off-by:

Direct reclaim is not aborting to allow compaction to go ahead properly. do_try_to_free_pages is told to abort reclaim which is happily ignores and instead increases priority instead until it reaches 0 and starts shrinking file/anon equally. This patch corrects the situation by aborting reclaim when requested instead of raising priority. Signed-off-by:

When searching a vmap area in the vmalloc space, we use (addr + size - 1) to check if the value is less than addr, which is an overflow. But we assign (addr + size) to vmap_area->va_end. So if we come across the below case: (addr + size - 1) : not overflow (addr + size) : overflow we will assign an overflow value (e.g 0) to vmap_area->va_end, And this will trigger BUG in __insert_vmap_area, causing system panic. So using (addr + size) to check the overflow should be the correct behaviour, not (addr + size - 1). Signed-off-by:

After commit 839a8e86 ("writeback: replace custom worker pool implementation with unbound workqueue"), bdi_writeback_workfn runs off bdi_writeback->dwork, on each execution, it processes bdi->work_list and reschedules if there are more things to do instead of flush any work that race with us existing. It is unecessary to check force_wait in wb_do_writeback since it is always 0 after the mentioned commit. This patch remove the force_wait in wb_do_writeback. Signed-off-by:

With CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE unset, there is a compile warning: mm/sparse.c:755: warning: `clear_hwpoisoned_pages' defined but not used And Bisecting it ended up pointing to 4edd7cef ("mm, hotplug: avoid compiling memory hotremove functions when disabled"). This is because the commit above put sparse_remove_one_section() within the protection of CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE but the only user of clear_hwpoisoned_pages() is sparse_remove_one_section(), and it is not within the protection of CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE. So put clear_hwpoisoned_pages within CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE should fix the warning. Signed-off-by:

In __rmqueue_fallback(), current_order loops down from MAX_ORDER - 1 to the order passed. MAX_ORDER is typically 11 and pageblock_order is typically 9 on x86. Integer division truncates, so pageblock_order / 2 is 4. For the first eight iterations, it's guaranteed that current_order >= pageblock_order / 2 if it even gets that far! So just remove the unlikely(), it's completely bogus. Signed-off-by:

The memory we used to hold the memcg arrays is currently accounted to the current memcg. But that creates a problem, because that memory can only be freed after the last user is gone. Our only way to know which is the last user, is to hook up to freeing time, but the fact that we still have some in flight kmallocs will prevent freeing to happen. I believe therefore to be just easier to account this memory as global overhead. Signed-off-by:

The memory we used to hold the memcg arrays is currently accounted to the current memcg. But that creates a problem, because that memory can only be freed after the last user is gone. Our only way to know which is the last user, is to hook up to freeing time, but the fact that we still have some in flight kmallocs will prevent freeing to happen. I believe therefore to be just easier to account this memory as global overhead. This patch (of 2): Disabling accounting is only relevant for some specific memcg internal allocations. Therefore we would initially not have such check at memcg_kmem_newpage_charge, since direct calls to the page allocator that are marked with GFP_KMEMCG only happen outside memcg core. We are mostly concerned with cache allocations and by having this test at memcg_kmem_get_cache we are already able to relay the allocation to the root cache and bypass the memcg caches altogether. There is one exception, though: the SLUB allocator does not create large order caches, but rather service large kmallocs directly from the page allocator. Therefore, the following sequence, when backed by the SLUB allocator: memcg_stop_kmem_account(); kmalloc(<large_number>) memcg_resume_kmem_account(); would effectively ignore the fact that we should skip accounting, since it will drive us directly to this function without passing through the cache selector memcg_kmem_get_cache. Such large allocations are extremely rare but can happen, for instance, for the cache arrays. This was never a problem in practice, because we weren't skipping accounting for the cache arrays. All the allocations we were skipping were fairly small. However, the fact that we were not skipping those allocations are a problem and can prevent the memcgs from going away. As we fix that, we need to make sure that the fix will also work with the SLUB allocator. Signed-off-by:

We should check the VM_UNITIALIZED flag in s_show(). If this flag is set, that said, the vm_struct is not fully initialized. So it is unnecessary to try to show the information contained in vm_struct. We checked this flag in show_numa_info(), but I think it's better to check it earlier. Signed-off-by:

VM_UNLIST was used to indicate that the vm_struct is not listed in vmlist. But after commit 4341fa45 ("mm, vmalloc: remove list management of vmlist after initializing vmalloc"), the meaning of this flag changed. It now means the vm_struct is not fully initialized. So renaming it to VM_UNINITIALIZED seems more reasonable. Also change clear_vm_unlist to clear_vm_uninitialized_flag. Signed-off-by:
