      mm/page_alloc.c: remove unnecessary parameter from __rmqueue · 6ac0206b
      Mel Gorman authored
      Commit 0aaa29a5 ("mm, page_alloc: reserve pageblocks for high-order
      atomic allocations on demand") added an unnecessary and unused parameter
      to __rmqueue.  It was a parameter that was used in an earlier version of
      the patch and then left behind.  This patch cleans it up.

      drivers/base/memory.c: clean up section counting · 56c6b5d3
      Seth Jennings authored
      Right now, section_count is calculated in add_memory_block().  However,
      init_memory_block() increments section_count as well, which, at first,
      seems like it would lead to an off-by-one error.  There is no harm done
      because add_memory_block() immediately overwrites the
      mem->section_count, but it is messy.
      
      This commit moves the increment out of the common init_memory_block()
      (called by both add_memory_block() and register_new_memory()) and adds
      it to register_new_memory().

      proc: meminfo: estimate available memory more conservatively · 84ad5802
      Johannes Weiner authored
      The MemAvailable item in /proc/meminfo is to give users a hint of how
      much memory is allocatable without causing swapping, so it excludes the
      zones' low watermarks as unavailable to userspace.
      
      However, for a userspace allocation, kswapd will actually reclaim until
      the free pages hit a combination of the high watermark and the page
      allocator's lowmem protection that keeps a certain amount of DMA and
      DMA32 memory from userspace as well.
      
      Subtract the full amount we know to be unavailable to userspace from the
      number of free pages when calculating MemAvailable.

      mm: allow GFP_{FS,IO} for page_cache_read page cache allocation · c20cd45e
      Michal Hocko authored
      page_cache_read has been historically using page_cache_alloc_cold to
      allocate a new page.  This means that mapping_gfp_mask is used as the
      base for the gfp_mask.  Many filesystems are setting this mask to
      GFP_NOFS to prevent from fs recursion issues.  page_cache_read is called
      from the vm_operations_struct::fault() context during the page fault.
      This context doesn't need the reclaim protection normally.
      
      ceph and ocfs2 which call filemap_fault from their fault handlers seem
      to be OK because they are not taking any fs lock before invoking generic
      implementation.  xfs which takes XFS_MMAPLOCK_SHARED is safe from the
      reclaim recursion POV because this lock serializes truncate and punch
      hole with the page faults and it doesn't get involved in the reclaim.
      
      There is simply no reason to deliberately use a weaker allocation
      context when a __GFP_FS | __GFP_IO can be used.  The GFP_NOFS protection
      might be even harmful.  There is a push to fail GFP_NOFS allocations
      rather than loop within allocator indefinitely with a very limited
      reclaim ability.  Once we start failing those requests the OOM killer
      might be triggered prematurely because the page cache allocation failure
      is propagated up the page fault path and end up in
      pagefault_out_of_memory.
      
      We cannot play with mapping_gfp_mask directly because that would be racy
      wrt.  parallel page faults and it might interfere with other users who
      really rely on NOFS semantic from the stored gfp_mask.  The mask is also
      inode proper so it would even be a layering violation.  What we can do
      instead is to push the gfp_mask into struct vm_fault and allow fs layer
      to overwrite it should the callback need to be called with a different
      allocation context.
      
      Initialize the default to (mapping_gfp_mask | __GFP_FS | __GFP_IO)
      because this should be safe from the page fault path normally.  Why do
      we care about mapping_gfp_mask at all then? Because this doesn't hold
      only reclaim protection flags but it also might contain zone and
      movability restrictions (GFP_DMA32, __GFP_MOVABLE and others) so we have
      to respect those.

      mm: mmap: add new /proc tunable for mmap_base ASLR · d07e2259
      Daniel Cashman authored
      Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) provides a barrier to
      exploitation of user-space processes in the presence of security
      vulnerabilities by making it more difficult to find desired code/data
      which could help an attack.  This is done by adding a random offset to
      the location of regions in the process address space, with a greater
      range of potential offset values corresponding to better protection/a
      larger search-space for brute force, but also to greater potential for
      fragmentation.
      
      The offset added to the mmap_base address, which provides the basis for
      the majority of the mappings for a process, is set once on process exec
      in arch_pick_mmap_layout() and is done via hard-coded per-arch values,
      which reflect, hopefully, the best compromise for all systems.  The
      trade-off between increased entropy in the offset value generation and
      the corresponding increased variability in address space fragmentation
      is not absolute, however, and some platforms may tolerate higher amounts
      of entropy.  This patch introduces both new Kconfig values and a sysctl
      interface which may be used to change the amount of entropy used for
      offset generation on a system.
      
      The direct motivation for this change was in response to the
      libstagefright vulnerabilities that affected Android, specifically to
      information provided by Google's project zero at:
      
        http://googleprojectzero.blogspot.com/2015/09/stagefrightened.html
      
      The attack presented therein, by Google's project zero, specifically
      targeted the limited randomness used to generate the offset added to the
      mmap_base address in order to craft a brute-force-based attack.
      Concretely, the attack was against the mediaserver process, which was
      limited to respawning every 5 seconds, on an arm device.  The hard-coded
      8 bits used resulted in an average expected success rate of defeating
      the mmap ASLR after just over 10 minutes (128 tries at 5 seconds a
      piece).  With this patch, and an accompanying increase in the entropy
      value to 16 bits, the same attack would take an average expected time of
      over 45 hours (32768 tries), which makes it both less feasible and more
      likely to be noticed.
      
      The introduced Kconfig and sysctl options are limited by per-arch
      minimum and maximum values, the minimum of which was chosen to match the
      current hard-coded value and the maximum of which was chosen so as to
      give the greatest flexibility without generating an invalid mmap_base
      address, generally a 3-4 bits less than the number of bits in the
      user-space accessible virtual address space.
      
      When decided whether or not to change the default value, a system
      developer should consider that mmap_base address could be placed
      anywhere up to 2^(value) bits away from the non-randomized location,
      which would introduce variable-sized areas above and below the mmap_base
      address such that the maximum vm_area_struct size may be reduced,
      preventing very large allocations.
      
      This patch (of 4):
      
      ASLR only uses as few as 8 bits to generate the random offset for the
      mmap base address on 32 bit architectures.  This value was chosen to
      prevent a poorly chosen value from dividing the address space in such a
      way as to prevent large allocations.  This may not be an issue on all
      platforms.  Allow the specification of a minimum number of bits so that
      platforms desiring greater ASLR protection may determine where to place
      the trade-off.

      mm/mmap.c: remove incorrect MAP_FIXED flag comparison from mmap_region · bc36f701
      Piotr Kwapulinski authored
      The following flag comparison in mmap_region makes no sense:
      
          if (!(vm_flags & MAP_FIXED))
              return -ENOMEM;
      
      The condition is always false and thus the above "return -ENOMEM" is
      never executed.  The vm_flags must not be compared with MAP_FIXED flag.
      The vm_flags may only be compared with VM_* flags.  MAP_FIXED has the
      same value as VM_MAYREAD.
      
      Hitting the rlimit is a slow path and find_vma_intersection should
      realize that there is no overlapping VMA for !MAP_FIXED case pretty
      quickly.

      mm, vmscan: consider isolated pages in zone_reclaimable_pages · 9f6c399d
      Michal Hocko authored
      zone_reclaimable_pages counts how many pages are reclaimable in the
      given zone.  This currently includes all pages on file lrus and anon
      lrus if there is an available swap storage.  We do not consider
      NR_ISOLATED_{ANON,FILE} counters though which is not correct because
      these counters reflect temporarily isolated pages which are still
      reclaimable because they either get back to their LRU or get freed
      either by the page reclaim or page migration.
      
      The number of these pages might be sufficiently high to confuse users of
      zone_reclaimable_pages (e.g.  mbind can migrate large ranges of memory
      at once).

      memcg: do not allow to disable tcp accounting after limit is set · 9ee11ba4
      Vladimir Davydov authored
      There are two bits defined for cg_proto->flags - MEMCG_SOCK_ACTIVATED
      and MEMCG_SOCK_ACTIVE - both are set in tcp_update_limit, but the former
      is never cleared while the latter can be cleared by unsetting the limit.
      This allows to disable tcp socket accounting for new sockets after it
      was enabled by writing -1 to memory.kmem.tcp.limit_in_bytes while still
      guaranteeing that memcg_socket_limit_enabled static key will be
      decremented on memcg destruction.
      
      This functionality looks dubious, because it is not clear what a use
      case would be.  By enabling tcp accounting a user accepts the price.  If
      they then find the performance degradation unacceptable, they can always
      restart their workload with tcp accounting disabled.  It does not seem
      there is any need to flip it while the workload is running.
      
      Besides, it contradicts to how kmem accounting API works: writing
      whatever to memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes enables kmem accounting for the
      cgroup in question, after which it cannot be disabled.  Therefore one
      might expect that writing -1 to memory.kmem.tcp.limit_in_bytes just
      enables socket accounting w/o limiting it, which might be useful by
      itself, but it isn't true.
      
      Since this API peculiarity is not documented anywhere, I propose to drop
      it.  This will allow to simplify the code by dropping cg_proto->flags.

      vmscan: do not force-scan file lru if its absolute size is small · 316bda0e
      Vladimir Davydov authored
      We assume there is enough inactive page cache if the size of inactive
      file lru is greater than the size of active file lru, in which case we
      force-scan file lru ignoring anonymous pages.  While this logic works
      fine when there are plenty of page cache pages, it fails if the size of
      file lru is small (several MB): in this case (lru_size >> prio) will be
      0 for normal scan priorities, as a result, if inactive file lru happens
      to be larger than active file lru, anonymous pages of a cgroup will
      never get evicted unless the system experiences severe memory pressure,
      even if there are gigabytes of unused anonymous memory there, which is
      unfair in respect to other cgroups, whose workloads might be page cache
      oriented.
      
      This patch attempts to fix this by elaborating the "enough inactive page
      cache" check: it makes it not only check that inactive lru size > active
      lru size, but also that we will scan something from the cgroup at the
      current scan priority.  If these conditions do not hold, we proceed to
      SCAN_FRACT as usual.

      mm, procfs: breakdown RSS for anon, shmem and file in /proc/pid/status · 8cee852e
      Jerome Marchand authored
      There are several shortcomings with the accounting of shared memory
      (SysV shm, shared anonymous mapping, mapping of a tmpfs file).  The
      values in /proc/<pid>/status and <...>/statm don't allow to distinguish
      between shmem memory and a shared mapping to a regular file, even though
      theirs implication on memory usage are quite different: during reclaim,
      file mapping can be dropped or written back on disk, while shmem needs a
      place in swap.
      
      Also, to distinguish the memory occupied by anonymous and file mappings,
      one has to read the /proc/pid/statm file, which has a field for the file
      mappings (again, including shmem) and total memory occupied by these
      mappings (i.e.  equivalent to VmRSS in the <...>/status file.  Getting
      the value for anonymous mappings only is thus not exactly user-friendly
      (the statm file is intended to be rather efficiently machine-readable).
      
      To address both of these shortcomings, this patch adds a breakdown of
      VmRSS in /proc/<pid>/status via new fields RssAnon, RssFile and
      RssShmem, making use of the previous preparatory patch.  These fields
      tell the user the memory occupied by private anonymous pages, mapped
      regular files and shmem, respectively.  Other existing fields in /status
      and /statm files are left without change.  The /statm file can be
      extended in the future, if there's a need for that.
      
      Example (part of) /proc/pid/status output including the new Rss* fields:
      
      VmPeak:  2001008 kB
      VmSize:  2001004 kB
      VmLck:         0 kB
      VmPin:         0 kB
      VmHWM:      5108 kB
      VmRSS:      5108 kB
      RssAnon:              92 kB
      RssFile:            1324 kB
      RssShmem:           3692 kB
      VmData:      192 kB

      mm, shmem: add internal shmem resident memory accounting · eca56ff9
      Jerome Marchand authored
      Currently looking at /proc/<pid>/status or statm, there is no way to
      distinguish shmem pages from pages mapped to a regular file (shmem pages
      are mapped to /dev/zero), even though their implication in actual memory
      use is quite different.
      
      The internal accounting currently counts shmem pages together with
      regular files.  As a preparation to extend the userspace interfaces,
      this patch adds MM_SHMEMPAGES counter to mm_rss_stat to account for
      shmem pages separately from MM_FILEPAGES.  The next patch will expose it
      to userspace - this patch doesn't change the exported values yet, by
      adding up MM_SHMEMPAGES to MM_FILEPAGES at places where MM_FILEPAGES was
      used before.  The only user-visible change after this patch is the OOM
      killer message that separates the reported "shmem-rss" from "file-rss".

      mm, proc: reduce cost of /proc/pid/smaps for unpopulated shmem mappings · 48131e03
      Vlastimil Babka authored
      Following the previous patch, further reduction of /proc/pid/smaps cost
      is possible for private writable shmem mappings with unpopulated areas
      where the page walk invokes the .pte_hole function.  We can use radix
      tree iterator for each such area instead of calling find_get_entry() in
      a loop.  This is possible at the extra maintenance cost of introducing
      another shmem function shmem_partial_swap_usage().
      
      To demonstrate the diference, I have measured this on a process that
      creates a private writable 2GB mapping of a partially swapped out
      /dev/shm/file (which cannot employ the optimizations from the prvious
      patch) and doesn't populate it at all.  I time how long does it take to
      cat /proc/pid/smaps of this process 100 times.
      
      Before this patch:
      
      real    0m3.831s
      user    0m0.180s
      sys     0m3.212s
      
      After this patch:
      
      real    0m1.176s
      user    0m0.180s
      sys     0m0.684s
      
      The time is similar to the case where a radix tree iterator is employed
      on the whole mapping.

      mm, proc: reduce cost of /proc/pid/smaps for shmem mappings · 6a15a370
      Vlastimil Babka authored
      The previous patch has improved swap accounting for shmem mapping, which
      however made /proc/pid/smaps more expensive for shmem mappings, as we
      consult the radix tree for each pte_none entry, so the overal complexity
      is O(n*log(n)).
      
      We can reduce this significantly for mappings that cannot contain COWed
      pages, because then we can either use the statistics tha shmem object
      itself tracks (if the mapping contains the whole object, or the swap
      usage of the whole object is zero), or use the radix tree iterator,
      which is much more effective than repeated find_get_entry() calls.
      
      This patch therefore introduces a function shmem_swap_usage(vma) and
      makes /proc/pid/smaps use it when possible.  Only for writable private
      mappings of shmem objects (i.e.  tmpfs files) with the shmem object
      itself (partially) swapped outwe have to resort to the find_get_entry()
      approach.
      
      Hopefully such mappings are relatively uncommon.
      
      To demonstrate the diference, I have measured this on a process that
      creates a 2GB mapping and dirties single pages with a stride of 2MB, and
      time how long does it take to cat /proc/pid/smaps of this process 100
      times.
      
      Private writable mapping of a /dev/shm/file (the most complex case):
      
      real    0m3.831s
      user    0m0.180s
      sys     0m3.212s
      
      Shared mapping of an almost full mapping of a partially swapped /dev/shm/file
      (which needs to employ the radix tree iterator).
      
      real    0m1.351s
      user    0m0.096s
      sys     0m0.768s
      
      Same, but with /dev/shm/file not swapped (so no radix tree walk needed)
      
      real    0m0.935s
      user    0m0.128s
      sys     0m0.344s
      
      Private anonymous mapping:
      
      real    0m0.949s
      user    0m0.116s
      sys     0m0.348s
      
      The cost is now much closer to the private anonymous mapping case, unless
      the shmem mapping is private and writable.

      mm, proc: account for shmem swap in /proc/pid/smaps · c261e7d9
      Vlastimil Babka authored
      Currently, /proc/pid/smaps will always show "Swap: 0 kB" for
      shmem-backed mappings, even if the mapped portion does contain pages
      that were swapped out.  This is because unlike private anonymous
      mappings, shmem does not change pte to swap entry, but pte_none when
      swapping the page out.  In the smaps page walk, such page thus looks
      like it was never faulted in.
      
      This patch changes smaps_pte_entry() to determine the swap status for
      such pte_none entries for shmem mappings, similarly to how
      mincore_page() does it.  Swapped out shmem pages are thus accounted for.
      For private mappings of tmpfs files that COWed some of the pages, swaped
      out status of the original shmem pages is naturally ignored.  If some of
      the private copies was also swapped out, they are accounted via their
      page table swap entries, so the resulting reported swap usage is then a
      sum of both swapped out private copies, and swapped out shmem pages that
      were not COWed.  No double accounting can thus happen.
      
      The accounting is arguably still not as precise as for private anonymous
      mappings, since now we will count also pages that the process in
      question never accessed, but another process populated them and then let
      them become swapped out.  I believe it is still less confusing and
      subtle than not showing any swap usage by shmem mappings at all.
      Swapped out counter might of interest of users who would like to prevent
      from future swapins during performance critical operation and pre-fault
      them at their convenience.  Especially for larger swapped out regions
      the cost of swapin is much higher than a fresh page allocation.  So a
      differentiation between pte_none vs.  swapped out is important for those
      usecases.
      
      One downside of this patch is that it makes /proc/pid/smaps more
      expensive for shmem mappings, as we consult the radix tree for each
      pte_none entry, so the overal complexity is O(n*log(n)).  I have
      measured this on a process that creates a 2GB mapping and dirties single
      pages with a stride of 2MB, and time how long does it take to cat
      /proc/pid/smaps of this process 100 times.
      
      Private anonymous mapping:
      
      real    0m0.949s
      user    0m0.116s
      sys     0m0.348s
      
      Mapping of a /dev/shm/file:
      
      real    0m3.831s
      user    0m0.180s
      sys     0m3.212s
      
      The difference is rather substantial, so the next patch will reduce the
      cost for shared or read-only mappings.
      
      In a less controlled experiment, I've gathered pids of processes on my
      desktop that have either '/dev/shm/*' or 'SYSV*' in smaps.  This
      included the Chrome browser and some KDE processes.  Again, I've run cat
      /proc/pid/smaps on each 100 times.
      
      Before this patch:
      
      real    0m9.050s
      user    0m0.518s
      sys     0m8.066s
      
      After this patch:
      
      real    0m9.221s
      user    0m0.541s
      sys     0m8.187s
      
      This suggests low impact on average systems.
      
      Note that this patch doesn't attempt to adjust the SwapPss field for
      shmem mappings, which would need extra work to determine who else could
      have the pages mapped.  Thus the value stays zero except for COWed
      swapped out pages in a shmem mapping, which are accounted as usual.

      paragraph from there:
      
      There are several shortcomings with the accounting of shared memory
      (sysV shm, shared anonymous mapping, mapping to a tmpfs file).  The
      values in /proc/<pid>/status and statm don't allow to distinguish
      between shmem memory and a shared mapping to a regular file, even though
      their implications on memory usage are quite different: at reclaim, file
      mapping can be dropped or written back on disk while shmem needs a place
      in swap.  As for shmem pages that are swapped-out or in swap cache, they
      aren't accounted at all.
      
      The original motivation for myself is that a customer found (IMHO
      rightfully) confusing that e.g.  top output for process swap usage is
      unreliable with respect to swapped out shmem pages, which are not
      accounted for.
      
      The fundamental difference between private anonymous and shmem pages is
      that the latter has PTE's converted to pte_none, and not swapents.  As
      such, they are not accounted to the number of swapents visible e.g.  in
      /proc/pid/status VmSwap row.  It might be theoretically possible to use
      swapents when swapping out shmem (without extra cost, as one has to
      change all mappers anyway), and on swap in only convert the swapent for
      the faulting process, leaving swapents in other processes until they
      also fault (so again no extra cost).  But I don't know how many
      assumptions this would break, and it would be too disruptive change for
      a relatively small benefit.
      
      Instead, my approach is to document the limitation of VmSwap, and
      provide means to determine the swap usage for shmem areas for those who
      are interested and willing to pay the price, using /proc/pid/smaps.
      Because outside of ipcs, I don't think it's possible to currently to
      determine the usage at all.  The previous patchset [1] did introduce new
      shmem-specific fields into smaps output, and functions to determine the
      values.  I take a simpler approach, noting that smaps output already has
      a "Swap: X kB" line, where currently X == 0 always for shmem areas.  I
      think we can just consider this a bug and provide the proper value by
      consulting the radix tree, as e.g.  mincore_page() does.  In the patch
      changelog I explain why this is also not perfect (and cannot be without
      swapents), but still arguably much better than showing a 0.
      
      The last two patches are adapted from Jerome's patchset and provide a
      VmRSS breakdown to RssAnon, RssFile and RssShm in /proc/pid/status.
      Hugh noted that this is a welcome addition, and I agree that it might
      help e.g.  debugging process memory usage at albeit non-zero, but still
      rather low cost of extra per-mm counter and some page flag checks.
      
      [1] http://lwn.net/Articles/611966/
      
      This patch (of 6):
      
      The documentation for /proc/pid/status does not mention that the value
      of VmSwap counts only swapped out anonymous private pages, and not
      swapped out pages of the underlying shmem objects (for shmem mappings).
      This is not obvious, so document this limitation.

      mm/page_alloc.c: do not loop over ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS without triggering reclaim · 33d53103
      Michal Hocko authored
      __alloc_pages_slowpath is looping over ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS requests if
      __GFP_NOFAIL is requested.  This is fragile because we are basically
      relying on somebody else to make the reclaim (be it the direct reclaim
      or OOM killer) for us.  The caller might be holding resources (e.g.
      locks) which block other other reclaimers from making any progress for
      example.  Remove the retry loop and rely on __alloc_pages_slowpath to
      invoke all allowed reclaim steps and retry logic.
      
      We have to be careful about __GFP_NOFAIL allocations from the
      PF_MEMALLOC context even though this is a very bad idea to begin with
      because no progress can be gurateed at all.  We shouldn't break the
      __GFP_NOFAIL semantic here though.  It could be argued that this is
      essentially GFP_NOWAIT context which we do not support but PF_MEMALLOC
      is much harder to check for existing users because they might happen
      deep down the code path performed much later after setting the flag so
      we cannot really rule out there is no kernel path triggering this
      combination.

      mm/page_alloc.c: get rid of __alloc_pages_high_priority() · fde82aaa
      Michal Hocko authored
      __alloc_pages_high_priority doesn't do anything special other than it
      calls get_page_from_freelist and loops around GFP_NOFAIL allocation
      until it succeeds.  It would be better if the first part was done in
      __alloc_pages_slowpath where we modify the zonelist because this would
      be easier to read and understand.  Opencoding the function into its only
      caller allows to simplify it a bit as well.
      
      This patch doesn't introduce any functional changes.

      mm/cma: always check which page caused allocation failure · 8ef5849f
      Joonsoo Kim authored
      Now, we have tracepoint in test_pages_isolated() to notify pfn which
      cannot be isolated.  But, in alloc_contig_range(), some error path
      doesn't call test_pages_isolated() so it's still hard to know exact pfn
      that causes allocation failure.
      
      This patch change this situation by calling test_pages_isolated() in
      almost error path.  In allocation failure case, some overhead is added
      by this change, but, allocation failure is really rare event so it would
      not matter.
      
      In fatal signal pending case, we don't call test_pages_isolated()
      because this failure is intentional one.
      
      There was a bogus outer_start problem due to unchecked buddy order and
      this patch also fix it.  Before this patch, it didn't matter, because
      end result is same thing.  But, after this patch, tracepoint will report
      failed pfn so it should be accurate.

      mm/mempolicy.c: convert the shared_policy lock to a rwlock · 4a8c7bb5
      Nathan Zimmer authored
      When running the SPECint_rate gcc on some very large boxes it was
      noticed that the system was spending lots of time in
      mpol_shared_policy_lookup().  The gamess benchmark can also show it and
      is what I mostly used to chase down the issue since the setup for that I
      found to be easier.
      
      To be clear the binaries were on tmpfs because of disk I/O requirements.
      We then used text replication to avoid icache misses and having all the
      copies banging on the memory where the instruction code resides.  This
      results in us hitting a bottleneck in mpol_shared_policy_lookup() since
      lookup is serialised by the shared_policy lock.
      
      I have only reproduced this on very large (3k+ cores) boxes.  The
      problem starts showing up at just a few hundred ranks getting worse
      until it threatens to livelock once it gets large enough.  For example
      on the gamess benchmark at 128 ranks this area consumes only ~1% of
      time, at 512 ranks it consumes nearly 13%, and at 2k ranks it is over
      90%.
      
      To alleviate the contention in this area I converted the spinlock to an
      rwlock.  This allows a large number of lookups to happen simultaneously.
      The results were quite good reducing this consumtion at max ranks to
      around 2%.
