      test_maple_tree: add more testing for mas_empty_area() · 4bd6dded
      Liam R. Howlett authored 
      Test robust filling of an entire area of the tree, then test one beyond. 
This is to test the walking back up the tree at the end of nodes and error
condition.  Test inspired by the reproducer code provided by Snild Dolkow.

The last test in the function tests for the case of a corrupted maple
state caused by the incorrect limits set during mas_skip_node().  There
needs to be a gap in the second last child and last child, but the search
must rule out the second last child's gap.  This would avoid correcting
the maple state to the correct max limit and return an error.

      maple_tree: fix mas_skip_node() end slot detection · 0fa99fdf
      Liam R. Howlett authored 
      Patch series "Fix mas_skip_node() for mas_empty_area()", v2.

mas_empty_area() was incorrectly returning an error when there was room. 
The issue was tracked down to mas_skip_node() using the incorrect
end-of-slot count.  Instead of using the nodes hard limit, the limit of
data should be used.

mas_skip_node() was also setting the min and max to that of the child
node, which was unnecessary.  Within these limits being set, there was
also a bug that corrupted the maple state's max if the offset was set to
the maximum node pivot.  The bug was without consequence unless there was
a sufficient gap in the next child node which would cause an error to be
returned.

This patch set fixes these errors by removing the limit setting from
mas_skip_node() and uses the mas_data_end() for slot limits, and adds
tests for all failures discovered.


This patch (of 2):

mas_skip_node() is used to move the maple state to the node with a higher
limit.  It does this by walking up the tree and increasing the slot count.
Since slot count may not be able to be increased, it may need to walk up
multiple times to find room to walk right to a higher limit node.  The
limit of slots that was being used was the node limit and not the last
location of data in the node.  This would cause the maple state to be
shifted outside actual data and enter an error state, thus returning
-EBUSY.

The result of the incorrect error state means that mas_awalk() would
return an error instead of finding the allocation space.

The fix is to use mas_data_end() in mas_skip_node() to detect the nodes
data end point and continue walking the tree up until it is safe to move
to a node with a higher limit.

The walk up the tree also sets the maple state limits so remove the buggy
code from mas_skip_node().  Setting the limits had the unfortunate side
effect of triggering another bug if the parent node was full and the there
was no suitable gap in the second last child, but room in the next child.

mas_skip_node() may also be passed a maple state in an error state from
mas_anode_descend() when no allocations are available.  Return on such an
error state immediately.

      mm, vmalloc: fix high order __GFP_NOFAIL allocations · e9c3cda4
      Michal Hocko authored 
      Gao Xiang has reported that the page allocator complains about high order
__GFP_NOFAIL request coming from the vmalloc core:

 __alloc_pages+0x1cb/0x5b0 mm/page_alloc.c:5549
 alloc_pages+0x1aa/0x270 mm/mempolicy.c:2286
 vm_area_alloc_pages mm/vmalloc.c:2989 [inline]
 __vmalloc_area_node mm/vmalloc.c:3057 [inline]
 __vmalloc_node_range+0x978/0x13c0 mm/vmalloc.c:3227
 kvmalloc_node+0x156/0x1a0 mm/util.c:606
 kvmalloc include/linux/slab.h:737 [inline]
 kvmalloc_array include/linux/slab.h:755 [inline]
 kvcalloc include/linux/slab.h:760 [inline]

it seems that I have completely missed high order allocation backing
vmalloc areas case when implementing __GFP_NOFAIL support.  This means
that [k]vmalloc at al.  can allocate higher order allocations with
__GFP_NOFAIL which can trigger OOM killer for non-costly orders easily or
cause a lot of reclaim/compaction activity if those requests cannot be
satisfied.

Fix the issue by falling back to zero order allocations for __GFP_NOFAIL
requests if the high order request fails.
