Patch series "introduce memory.oom.group", v2. This is a tiny implementation of cgroup-aware OOM killer, which adds an ability to kill a cgroup as a single unit and so guarantee the integrity of the workload. Although it has only a limited functionality in comparison to what now resides in the mm tree (it doesn't change the victim task selection algorithm, doesn't look at memory stas on cgroup level, etc), it's also much simpler and more straightforward. So, hopefully, we can avoid having long debates here, as we had with the full implementation. As it doesn't prevent any futher development, and implements an useful and complete feature, it looks as a sane way forward. This patch (of 2): oom_kill_process() consists of two logical parts: the first one is responsible for considering task's children as a potential victim and printing the debug information. The second half is responsible for sending SIGKILL to all tasks sharing the mm struct with the given victim. This commit splits oom_kill_process() with an intention to re-use the the second half: __oom_kill_process(). The cgroup-aware OOM killer will kill multiple tasks belonging to the victim cgroup. We don't need to print the debug information for the each task, as well as play with task selection (considering task's children), so we can't use the existing oom_kill_process().

Currently, whenever a new node is created/re-used from the memhotplug path, we call free_area_init_node()->free_area_init_core(). But there is some code that we do not really need to run when we are coming from such path. free_area_init_core() performs the following actions: 1) Initializes pgdat internals, such as spinlock, waitqueues and more. 2) Account # nr_all_pages and # nr_kernel_pages. These values are used later on when creating hash tables. 3) Account number of managed_pages per zone, substracting dma_reserved and memmap pages. 4) Initializes some fields of the zone structure data 5) Calls init_currently_empty_zone to initialize all the freelists 6) Calls memmap_init to initialize all pages belonging to certain zone When called from memhotplug path, free_area_init_core() only performs actions #1 and #4. Action #2 is pointless as the zones do not have any pages since either the node was freed, or we are re-using it, eitherway all zones belonging to this node should have 0 pages. For the same reason, action #3 results always in manages_pages being 0. Action #5 and #6 are performed later on when onlining the pages: online_pages()->move_pfn_range_to_zone()->init_currently_empty_zone() online_pages()->move_pfn_range_to_zone()->memmap_init_zone() This patch does two things: First, moves the node/zone initializtion to their own function, so it allows us to create a small version of free_area_init_core, where we only perform: 1) Initialization of pgdat internals, such as spinlock, waitqueues and more 4) Initialization of some fields of the zone structure data These two functions are: pgdat_init_internals() and zone_init_internals(). The second thing this patch does, is to introduce free_area_init_core_hotplug(), the memhotplug version of free_area_init_core(): Currently, we call free_area_init_node() from the memhotplug path. In there, we set some pgdat's fields, and call calculate_node_totalpages(). calculate_node_totalpages() calculates the # of pages the node has. Since the node is either new, or we are re-using it, the zones belonging to this node should not have any pages, so there is no point to calculate this now. Actually, we re-set these values to 0 later on with the calls to: reset_node_managed_pages() reset_node_present_pages() The # of pages per node and the # of pages per zone will be calculated when onlining the pages: online_pages()->move_pfn_range()->move_pfn_range_to_zone()->resize_zone_range() online_pages()->move_pfn_range()->move_pfn_range_to_zone()->resize_pgdat_range() Also, since free_area_init_core/free_area_init_node will now only get called during early init, let us replace __paginginit with __init, so their code gets freed up.

Patch series "Refactor free_area_init_core and add free_area_init_core_hotplug", v6. This patchset does three things: 1) Clean up/refactor free_area_init_core/free_area_init_node by moving the ifdefery out of the functions. 2) Move the pgdat/zone initialization in free_area_init_core to its own function. 3) Introduce free_area_init_core_hotplug, a small subset of free_area_init_core, which is only called from memhotlug code path. In this way, we have: free_area_init_core: called during early initialization free_area_init_core_hotplug: called whenever a new node is allocated/re-used (memhotplug path) This patch (of 5): Moving the #ifdefs out of the function makes it easier to follow.

is_dev_zone() is using zone_id() to check if the zone is ZONE_DEVICE. zone_id() looks pretty much the same as zone_idx(), and while the use of zone_idx() is quite spread in the kernel, zone_id() is only being used by is_dev_zone(). This patch removes zone_id() and makes is_dev_zone() use zone_idx() to check the zone, so we do not have two things with the same functionality around.

Currently cgroup-v1's memcg_stat_show traverses the memcg tree ~17 times to collect the stats while cgroup-v2's memory_stat_show traverses the memcg tree thrice. On a large machine, a couple thousand memcgs is very normal and if the churn is high and memcgs stick around during to several reasons, tens of thousands of nodes in memcg tree can exist. This patch has refactored and shared the stat collection code between cgroup-v1 and cgroup-v2 and has reduced the tree traversal to just one. I ran a simple benchmark which reads the root_mem_cgroup's stat file 1000 times in the presense of 2500 memcgs on cgroup-v1. The results are: Without the patch: $ time ./read-root-stat-1000-times real 0m1.663s user 0m0.000s sys 0m1.660s With the patch: $ time ./read-root-stat-1000-times real 0m0.468s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.467s Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180724224635.143944-1-shakeelb@google.comSigned-off-by:

The /proc/pid/smaps_rollup file is currently implemented via the m_start/m_next/m_stop seq_file iterators shared with the other maps files, that iterate over vma's. However, the rollup file doesn't print anything for each vma, only accumulate the stats. There are some issues with the current code as reported in [1] - the accumulated stats can get skewed if seq_file start()/stop() op is called multiple times, if show() is called multiple times, and after seeks to non-zero position. Patch [1] fixed those within existing design, but I believe it is fundamentally wrong to expose the vma iterators to the seq_file mechanism when smaps_rollup shows logically a single set of values for the whole address space. This patch thus refactors the code to provide a single "value" at offset 0, with vma iteration to gather the stats done internally. This fixes the situations where results are skewed, and simplifies the code, especially in show_smap(), at the expense of somewhat less code reuse.

Patch series "cleanups and refactor of /proc/pid/smaps*". The recent regression in /proc/pid/smaps made me look more into the code. Especially the issues with smaps_rollup reported in [1] as explained in Patch 4, which fixes them by refactoring the code. Patches 2 and 3 are preparations for that. Patch 1 is me realizing that there's a lot of boilerplate left from times where we tried (unsuccessfuly) to mark thread stacks in the output. Originally I had also plans to rework the translation from /proc/pid/*maps* file offsets to the internal structures. Now the offset means "vma number", which is not really stable (vma's can come and go between read() calls) and there's an extra caching of last vma's address. My idea was that offsets would be interpreted directly as addresses, which would also allow meaningful seeks (see the ugly seek_to_smaps_entry() in tools/testing/selftests/vm/mlock2.h). However loff_t is (signed) long long so that might be insufficient somewhere for the unsigned long addresses. So the result is fixed issues with skewed /proc/pid/smaps_rollup results, simpler smaps code, and a lot of unused code removed. [1] https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=151927723128134&w=2 This patch (of 4): Commit b7643757 ("procfs: mark thread stack correctly in proc/<pid>/maps") introduced differences between /proc/PID/maps and /proc/PID/task/TID/maps to mark thread stacks properly, and this was also done for smaps and numa_maps. However it didn't work properly and was ultimately removed by commit b18cb64e ("fs/proc: Stop trying to report thread stacks"). Now the is_pid parameter for the related show_*() functions is unused and we can remove it together with wrapper functions and ops structures that differ for PID and TID cases only in this parameter.

Andrew has noticed some inconsistencies in oom_reap_task_mm. Notably - Undocumented return value. - comment "failed to reap part..." is misleading - sounds like it's referring to something which happened in the past, is in fact referring to something which might happen in the future. - fails to call trace_finish_task_reaping() in one case - code duplication. - Increases mmap_sem hold time a little by moving trace_finish_task_reaping() inside the locked region. So sue me ;) - Sharing the finish: path means that the trace event won't distinguish between the two sources of finishing. Add a short explanation for the return value and fix the rest by reorganizing the function a bit to have unified function exit paths.

oom_reaper used to rely on the oom_lock since e2fe1456 ("oom_reaper: close race with exiting task"). We do not really need the lock anymore though. 21292580 ("mm: oom: let oom_reap_task and exit_mmap run concurrently") has removed serialization with the exit path based on the mm reference count and so we do not really rely on the oom_lock anymore. Tetsuo was arguing that at least MMF_OOM_SKIP should be set under the lock to prevent from races when the page allocator didn't manage to get the freed (reaped) memory in __alloc_pages_may_oom but it sees the flag later on and move on to another victim. Although this is possible in principle let's wait for it to actually happen in real life before we make the locking more complex again. Therefore remove the oom_lock for oom_reaper paths (both exit_mmap and oom_reap_task_mm). The reaper serializes with exit_mmap by mmap_sem + MMF_OOM_SKIP flag. There is no synchronization with out_of_memory path now.

There are several blockable mmu notifiers which might sleep in mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start and that is a problem for the oom_reaper because it needs to guarantee a forward progress so it cannot depend on any sleepable locks. Currently we simply back off and mark an oom victim with blockable mmu notifiers as done after a short sleep. That can result in selecting a new oom victim prematurely because the previous one still hasn't torn its memory down yet. We can do much better though. Even if mmu notifiers use sleepable locks there is no reason to automatically assume those locks are held. Moreover majority of notifiers only care about a portion of the address space and there is absolutely zero reason to fail when we are unmapping an unrelated range. Many notifiers do really block and wait for HW which is harder to handle and we have to bail out though. This patch handles the low hanging fruit. __mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start gets a blockable flag and callbacks are not allowed to sleep if the flag is set to false. This is achieved by using trylock instead of the sleepable lock for most callbacks and continue as long as we do not block down the call chain. I think we can improve that even further because there is a common pattern to do a range lookup first and then do something about that. The first part can be done without a sleeping lock in most cases AFAICS. The oom_reaper end then simply retries if there is at least one notifier which couldn't make any progress in !blockable mode. A retry loop is already implemented to wait for the mmap_sem and this is basically the same thing. The simplest way for driver developers to test this code path is to wrap userspace code which uses these notifiers into a memcg and set the hard limit to hit the oom. This can be done e.g. after the test faults in all the mmu notifier managed memory and set the hard limit to something really small. Then we are looking for a proper process tear down.

In swap_page_trans_huge_swapped(), to identify whether there's any page table mapping for a 4k sized swap entry, "si->swap_map[i] != SWAP_HAS_CACHE" is used. This works correctly now, because all users of the function will only call it after checking SWAP_HAS_CACHE. But as pointed out by Daniel, it is better to use "swap_count(map[i])" here, because it works for "map[i] == 0" case too. And this makes the implementation more consistent between normal and huge swap entry. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180720071845.17920-4-ying.huang@intel.comSigned-off-by:

In mm/swapfile.c, THP (Transparent Huge Page) swap specific code is enclosed by #ifdef CONFIG_THP_SWAP/#endif to avoid code dilating when THP isn't enabled.

Because it is a public function with a stub implementation for CONFIG_THP_SWAP=n in swap.h. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180720071845.17920-3-ying.huang@intel.comSigned-off-by:

Patch series "swap: THP optimizing refactoring", v4. Now the THP (Transparent Huge Page) swap optimizing is implemented in the way like below, #ifdef CONFIG_THP_SWAP huge_function(...) { } #else normal_function(...) { } #endif general_function(...) { if (huge) return thp_function(...); else return normal_function(...); } As pointed out by Dave Hansen, this will, 1. Create a new, wholly untested code path for huge page 2. Create two places to patch bugs 3. Are not reusing code when possible This patchset is to address these problems via merging huge/normal code path/functions if possible. One concern is that this may cause code size to dilate when !CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE. The data shows that most refactoring will only cause quite slight code size increase. This patch (of 8): To improve code readability. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180720071845.17920-2-ying.huang@intel.comSigned-off-by: -

Currently, there are two flags only, so unsigned is more then enough. Also, move int seeks to keep these fields together. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/153199748720.21131.6476256940113102483.stgit@localhost.localdomainSigned-off-by:

Patch series "Reorderings in struct shrinker and struct shrink_control". These structures are intensively used during reclaim and, displace other data in cache, so there is no a reason they have int fields not grouped together. This patch (of 2): gfp_t is of unsigned type, so let's move nid to keep them together. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/153199747930.21131.861043607301997810.stgit@localhost.localdomainSigned-off-by:

There is a sad BUG introduced in patch adding SHRINKER_REGISTERING. shrinker_idr business is only for memcg-aware shrinkers. Only such type of shrinkers have id and they must be finaly installed via idr_replace() in this function. For !memcg-aware shrinkers we never initialize shrinker->id field. But there are all types of shrinkers passed to idr_replace(), and every !memcg-aware shrinker with random ID (most probably, its id is 0) replaces memcg-aware shrinker pointed by the ID in IDR. This patch fixes the problem.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Restructure of lockdep and latency tracers This is the biggest change. Joel Fernandes restructured the hooks from irqs and preemption disabling and enabling. He got rid of a lot of the preprocessor #ifdef mess that they caused. He turned both lockdep and the latency tracers to use trace events inserted in the preempt/irqs disabling paths. But unfortunately, these started to cause issues in corner cases. Thus, parts of the code was reverted back to where lockdep and the latency tracers just get called directly (without using the trace events). But because the original change cleaned up the code very nicely we kept that, as well as the trace events for preempt and irqs disabling, but they are limited to not being called in NMIs. - Have trace events use SRCU for "rcu idle" calls. This was required for the preempt/irqs off trace events. But it also had to not allow them to be called in NMI context. Waiting till Paul makes an NMI safe SRCU API. - New notrace SRCU API to allow trace events to use SRCU. - Addition of mcount-nop option support - SPDX headers replacing GPL templates. - Various other fixes and clean ups. - Some fixes are marked for stable, but were not fully tested before the merge window opened. * tag 'trace-v4.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (44 commits) tracing: Fix SPDX format headers to use C++ style comments tracing: Add SPDX License format tags to tracing files tracing: Add SPDX License format to bpf_trace.c blktrace: Add SPDX License format header s390/ftrace: Add -mfentry and -mnop-mcount support tracing: Add -mcount-nop option support tracing: Avoid calling cc-option -mrecord-mcount for every Makefile tracing: Handle CC_FLAGS_FTRACE more accurately Uprobe: Additional argument arch_uprobe to uprobe_write_opcode() Uprobes: Simplify uprobe_register() body tracepoints: Free early tracepoints after RCU is initialized uprobes: Use synchronize_rcu() not synchronize_sched() tracing: Fix synchronizing to event changes with tracepoint_synchronize_unregister() ftrace: Remove unused pointer ftrace_swapper_pid tracing: More reverting of "tracing: Centralize preemptirq tracepoints and unify their usage" tracing/irqsoff: Handle preempt_count for different configs tracing: Partial revert of "tracing: Centralize preemptirq tracepoints and unify their usage" tracing: irqsoff: Account for additional preempt_disable trace: Use rcu_dereference_raw for hooks from trace-event subsystem tracing/kprobes: Fix within_notrace_func() to check only notrace functions ...
