arm uses a top-down mmap layout by default that exactly fits the generic functions, so get rid of arch specific code and use the generic version by selecting ARCH_WANT_DEFAULT_TOPDOWN_MMAP_LAYOUT. As ARCH_WANT_DEFAULT_TOPDOWN_MMAP_LAYOUT selects ARCH_HAS_ELF_RANDOMIZE, use the generic version of arch_randomize_brk since it also fits. Note that this commit also removes the possibility for arm to have elf randomization and no MMU: without MMU, the security added by randomization is worth nothing. Note that it is safe to remove STACK_RND_MASK since it matches the default value. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190730055113.23635-9-alex@ghiti.frSigned-off-by:

arm64 handles top-down mmap layout in a way that can be easily reused by other architectures, so make it available in mm. It then introduces a new config ARCH_WANT_DEFAULT_TOPDOWN_MMAP_LAYOUT that can be set by other architectures to benefit from those functions. Note that this new config depends on MMU being enabled, if selected without MMU support, a warning will be thrown. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190730055113.23635-5-alex@ghiti.frSigned-off-by:

Patch series "Provide generic top-down mmap layout functions", v6. This series introduces generic functions to make top-down mmap layout easily accessible to architectures, in particular riscv which was the initial goal of this series. The generic implementation was taken from arm64 and used successively by arm, mips and finally riscv. Note that in addition the series fixes 2 issues: - stack randomization was taken into account even if not necessary. - [1] fixed an issue with mmap base which did not take into account randomization but did not report it to arm and mips, so by moving arm64 into a generic library, this problem is now fixed for both architectures. This work is an effort to factorize architecture functions to avoid code duplication and oversights as in [1]. [1]: https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org/msg1429066.html This patch (of 14): This preparatory commit moves this function so that further introduction of generic topdown mmap layout is contained only in mm/util.c.

After all uprobes are removed from the huge page (with PTE pgtable), it is possible to collapse the pmd and benefit from THP again. This patch does the collapse by calling collapse_pte_mapped_thp(). Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190815164525.1848545-7-songliubraving@fb.comSigned-off-by:

khugepaged needs exclusive mmap_sem to access page table. When it fails to lock mmap_sem, the page will fault in as pte-mapped THP. As the page is already a THP, khugepaged will not handle this pmd again. This patch enables the khugepaged to retry collapse the page table. struct mm_slot (in khugepaged.c) is extended with an array, containing addresses of pte-mapped THPs. We use array here for simplicity. We can easily replace it with more advanced data structures when needed. In khugepaged_scan_mm_slot(), if the mm contains pte-mapped THP, we try to collapse the page table. Since collapse may happen at an later time, some pages may already fault in. collapse_pte_mapped_thp() is added to properly handle these pages. collapse_pte_mapped_thp() also double checks whether all ptes in this pmd are mapping to the same THP. This is necessary because some subpage of the THP may be replaced, for example by uprobe. In such cases, it is not possible to collapse the pmd.

Use the newly added FOLL_SPLIT_PMD in uprobe. This preserves the huge page when the uprobe is enabled. When the uprobe is disabled, newer instances of the same application could still benefit from huge page. For the next step, we will enable khugepaged to regroup the pmd, so that existing instances of the application could also benefit from huge page after the uprobe is disabled.

Introduce a new foll_flag: FOLL_SPLIT_PMD. As the name says FOLL_SPLIT_PMD splits huge pmd for given mm_struct, the underlining huge page stays as-is. FOLL_SPLIT_PMD is useful for cases where we need to use regular pages, but would switch back to huge page and huge pmd on. One of such example is uprobe. The following patches use FOLL_SPLIT_PMD in uprobe. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190815164525.1848545-4-songliubraving@fb.comSigned-off-by:

Currently, uprobe swaps the target page with a anonymous page in both install_breakpoint() and remove_breakpoint(). When all uprobes on a page are removed, the given mm is still using an anonymous page (not the original page). This patch allows uprobe to use original page when possible (all uprobes on the page are already removed, and the original page is in page cache and uptodate). As suggested by Oleg, we unmap the old_page and let the original page fault in. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190815164525.1848545-3-songliubraving@fb.comSigned-off-by:

Patch series "THP aware uprobe", v13. This patchset makes uprobe aware of THPs. Currently, when uprobe is attached to text on THP, the page is split by FOLL_SPLIT. As a result, uprobe eliminates the performance benefit of THP. This set makes uprobe THP-aware. Instead of FOLL_SPLIT, we introduces FOLL_SPLIT_PMD, which only split PMD for uprobe. After all uprobes within the THP are removed, the PTE-mapped pages are regrouped as huge PMD. This set (plus a few THP patches) is also available at https://github.com/liu-song-6/linux/tree/uprobe-thp This patch (of 6): Move memcmp_pages() to mm/util.c and pages_identical() to mm.h, so that we can use them in other files.

Currently THP deferred split shrinker is not memcg aware, this may cause premature OOM with some configuration. For example the below test would run into premature OOM easily: $ cgcreate -g memory:thp $ echo 4G > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/thp/memory/limit_in_bytes $ cgexec -g memory:thp transhuge-stress 4000 transhuge-stress comes from kernel selftest. It is easy to hit OOM, but there are still a lot THP on the deferred split queue, memcg direct reclaim can't touch them since the deferred split shrinker is not memcg aware. Convert deferred split shrinker memcg aware by introducing per memcg deferred split queue. The THP should be on either per node or per memcg deferred split queue if it belongs to a memcg. When the page is immigrated to the other memcg, it will be immigrated to the target memcg's deferred split queue too. Reuse the second tail page's deferred_list for per memcg list since the same THP can't be on multiple deferred split queues.

Currently shrinker is just allocated and can work when memcg kmem is enabled. But, THP deferred split shrinker is not slab shrinker, it doesn't make too much sense to have such shrinker depend on memcg kmem. It should be able to reclaim THP even though memcg kmem is disabled. Introduce a new shrinker flag, SHRINKER_NONSLAB, for non-slab shrinker. When memcg kmem is disabled, just such shrinkers can be called in shrinking memcg slab.

A later patch makes THP deferred split shrinker memcg aware, but it needs page->mem_cgroup information in THP destructor, which is called after mem_cgroup_uncharge() now. So move mem_cgroup_uncharge() from __page_cache_release() to compound page destructor, which is called by both THP and other compound pages except HugeTLB. And call it in __put_single_page() for single order page. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1565144277-36240-3-git-send-email-yang.shi@linux.alibaba.comSigned-off-by:

In previous patch, an application could put part of its text section in THP via madvise(). These THPs will be protected from writes when the application is still running (TXTBSY). However, after the application exits, the file is available for writes. This patch avoids writes to file THP by dropping page cache for the file when the file is open for write. A new counter nr_thps is added to struct address_space. In do_dentry_open(), if the file is open for write and nr_thps is non-zero, we drop page cache for the whole file.

This patch is (hopefully) the first step to enable THP for non-shmem filesystems. This patch enables an application to put part of its text sections to THP via madvise, for example: madvise((void *)0x600000, 0x200000, MADV_HUGEPAGE); We tried to reuse the logic for THP on tmpfs. Currently, write is not supported for non-shmem THP. khugepaged will only process vma with VM_DENYWRITE. sys_mmap() ignores VM_DENYWRITE requests (see ksys_mmap_pgoff). The only way to create vma with VM_DENYWRITE is execve(). This requirement limits non-shmem THP to text sections. The next patch will handle writes, which would only happen when the all the vmas with VM_DENYWRITE are unmapped. An EXPERIMENTAL config, READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS, is added to gate this feature.

Patch series "Enable THP for text section of non-shmem files", v10; This patchset follows up discussion at LSF/MM 2019. The motivation is to put text section of an application in THP, and thus reduces iTLB miss rate and improves performance. Both Facebook and Oracle showed strong interests to this feature. To make reviews easier, this set aims a mininal valid product. Current version of the work does not have any changes to file system specific code. This comes with some limitations (discussed later). This set enables an application to "hugify" its text section by simply running something like: madvise(0x600000, 0x80000, MADV_HUGEPAGE); Before this call, the /proc/<pid>/maps looks like: 00400000-074d0000 r-xp 00000000 00:27 2006927 app After this call, part of the text section is split out and mapped to THP: 00400000-00425000 r-xp 00000000 00:27 2006927 app 00600000-00e00000 r-xp 00200000 00:27 2006927 app <<< on THP 00e00000-074d0000 r-xp 00a00000 00:27 2006927 app Limitations: 1. This only works for text section (vma with VM_DENYWRITE). 2. Original limitation #2 is removed in v3. We gated this feature with an experimental config, READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS. Once we get better support on the write path, we can remove the config and enable it by default. Tested cases: 1. Tested with btrfs and ext4. 2. Tested with real work application (memcache like caching service). 3. Tested with "THP aware uprobe": https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-mm/list/?series=131339 This patch (of 7): Currently, filemap_fault() avoids race condition with truncate by checking page->mapping == mapping.

When allocating hugetlbfs pool pages via /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages, the pages will be interleaved between all nodes of the system. If nodes are not equal, it is quite possible for one node to fill up before the others. When this happens, the code still attempts to allocate pages from the full node. This results in calls to direct reclaim and compaction which slow things down considerably. When allocating pool pages, note the state of the previous allocation for each node. If previous allocation failed, do not use the aggressive retry algorithm on successive attempts. The allocation will still succeed if there is memory available, but it will not try as hard to free up memory.

Mike Kravetz reports that "hugetlb allocations could stall for minutes or hours when should_compact_retry() would return true more often then it should. Specifically, this was in the case where compact_result was COMPACT_DEFERRED and COMPACT_PARTIAL_SKIPPED and no progress was being made." The problem is that the compaction_withdrawn() test in should_compact_retry() includes compaction outcomes that are only possible on low compaction priority, and results in a retry without increasing the priority. This may result in furter reclaim, and more incomplete compaction attempts. With this patch, compaction priority is raised when possible, or should_compact_retry() returns false. The COMPACT_SKIPPED result doesn't really fit together with the other outcomes in compaction_withdrawn(), as that's a result caused by insufficient order-0 pages, not due to low compaction priority. With this patch, it is moved to a new compaction_needs_reclaim() function, and for that outcome we keep the current logic of retrying if it looks like reclaim will be able to help.

After commit "mm, reclaim: make should_continue_reclaim perform dryrun detection", closer look at the function shows, that nr_reclaimed == 0 means the function will always return false. And since non-zero nr_reclaimed implies non_zero nr_scanned, testing nr_scanned serves no purpose, and so does the testing for __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL. This patch thus cleans up the function to test only !nr_reclaimed upfront, and remove the __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL test and nr_scanned parameter completely. Comment is also updated, explaining that approximating "full LRU list has been scanned" with nr_scanned == 0 didn't really work.

Patch series "address hugetlb page allocation stalls", v2. Allocation of hugetlb pages via sysctl or procfs can stall for minutes or hours. A simple example on a two node system with 8GB of memory is as follows: echo 4096 > /sys/devices/system/node/node1/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages echo 4096 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages Obviously, both allocation attempts will fall short of their 8GB goal. However, one or both of these commands may stall and not be interruptible. The issues were initially discussed in mail thread [1] and RFC code at [2]. This series addresses the issues causing the stalls. There are two distinct fixes, a cleanup, and an optimization. The reclaim patch by Hillf and compaction patch by Vlasitmil address corner cases in their respective areas. hugetlb page allocation could stall due to either of these issues. Vlasitmil added a cleanup patch after Hillf's modifications. The hugetlb patch by Mike is an optimization suggested during the debug and development process. [1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/d38a095e-dc39-7e82-bb76-2c9247929f07@oracle.com [2] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190724175014.9935-1-mike.kravetz@oracle.com This patch (of 4): Address the issue of should_continue_reclaim returning true too often for __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL attempts when !nr_reclaimed and nr_scanned. This was observed during hugetlb page allocation causing stalls for minutes or hours. We can stop reclaiming pages if compaction reports it can make a progress. There might be side-effects for other high-order allocations that would potentially benefit from reclaiming more before compaction so that they would be faster and less likely to stall. However, the consequences of premature/over-reclaim are considered worse. We can also bail out of reclaiming pages if we know that there are not enough inactive lru pages left to satisfy the costly allocation. We can give up reclaiming pages too if we see dryrun occur, with the certainty of plenty of inactive pages. IOW with dryrun detected, we are sure we have reclaimed as many pages as we could.

Cgroup v1 memcg controller has exposed a dedicated kmem limit to users which turned out to be really a bad idea because there are paths which cannot shrink the kernel memory usage enough to get below the limit (e.g. because the accounted memory is not reclaimable). There are cases when the failure is even not allowed (e.g. __GFP_NOFAIL). This means that the kmem limit is in excess to the hard limit without any way to shrink and thus completely useless. OOM killer cannot be invoked to handle the situation because that would lead to a premature oom killing. As a result many places might see ENOMEM returning from kmalloc and result in unexpected errors. E.g. a global OOM killer when there is a lot of free memory because ENOMEM is translated into VM_FAULT_OOM in #PF path and therefore pagefault_out_of_memory would result in OOM killer. Please note that the kernel memory is still accounted to the overall limit along with the user memory so removing the kmem specific limit should still allow to contain kernel memory consumption. Unlike the kmem one, though, it invokes memory reclaim and targeted memcg oom killing if necessary. Start the deprecation process by crying to the kernel log. Let's see whether there are relevant usecases and simply return to EINVAL in the second stage if nobody complains in few releases.

mem_cgroup_id_get() was introduced in commit 73f576c0 ("mm:memcontrol: fix cgroup creation failure after many small jobs"). Later, it no longer has any user since the commits, 1f47b61f ("mm: memcontrol: fix swap counter leak on swapout from offline cgroup") 58fa2a55 ("mm: memcontrol: add sanity checks for memcg->id.ref on get/put") so safe to remove it.

constrained_alloc() calculates the size of the oom domain by using node_spanned_pages which is incorrect because this is the full range of the physical memory range that the numa node occupies rather than the memory that backs that range which is represented by node_present_pages. Sparsely populated nodes (e.g. after memory hot remove or simply sparse due to memory layout) can have really a large difference between the two. This shouldn't really cause any real user observable problems because the oom calculates a ratio against totalpages and used memory cannot exceed present pages but it is confusing and wrong from code point of view.

For an OOM event: print oom_score_adj value for the OOM Killed process to document what the oom score adjust value was at the time the process was OOM Killed. The adjustment value can be set by user code and it affects the resulting oom_score so it is used to influence kill process selection. When eligible tasks are not printed (sysctl oom_dump_tasks = 0) printing this value is the only documentation of the value for the process being killed. Having this value on the Killed process message is useful to document if a miscconfiguration occurred or to confirm that the oom_score_adj configuration applies as expected. An example which illustates both misconfiguration and validation that the oom_score_adj was applied as expected is: Aug 14 23:00:02 testserver kernel: Out of memory: Killed process 2692 (systemd-udevd) total-vm:1056800kB, anon-rss:1052760kB, file-rss:4kB, shmem-rss:0kB pgtables:22kB oom_score_adj:1000 The systemd-udevd is a critical system application that should have an oom_score_adj of -1000. It was miconfigured to have a adjustment of 1000 making it a highly favored OOM kill target process. The output documents both the misconfiguration and the fact that the process was correctly targeted by OOM due to the miconfiguration. This can be quite helpful for triage and problem determination. The addition of the pgtables_bytes shows page table usage by the process and is a useful measure of the memory size of the process.

Masoud Sharbiani noticed that commit 29ef680a ("memcg, oom: move out_of_memory back to the charge path") broke memcg OOM called from __xfs_filemap_fault() path. It turned out that try_charge() is retrying forever without making forward progress because mem_cgroup_oom(GFP_NOFS) cannot invoke the OOM killer due to commit 3da88fb3 ("mm, oom: move GFP_NOFS check to out_of_memory"). Allowing forced charge due to being unable to invoke memcg OOM killer will lead to global OOM situation. Also, just returning -ENOMEM will be risky because OOM path is lost and some paths (e.g. get_user_pages()) will leak -ENOMEM. Therefore, invoking memcg OOM killer (despite GFP_NOFS) will be the only choice we can choose for now. Until 29ef680a, we were able to invoke memcg OOM killer when GFP_KERNEL reclaim failed [1]. But since 29ef680a, we need to invoke memcg OOM killer when GFP_NOFS reclaim failed [2]. Although in the past we did invoke memcg OOM killer for GFP_NOFS [3], we might get pre-mature memcg OOM reports due to this patch.

In the event of an oom kill, useful information about the killed process is printed to dmesg. Users, especially system administrators, will find it useful to immediately see the UID of the process. We already print uid when dumping eligible tasks so it is not overly hard to find that information in the oom report. However this information is unavailable when dumping of eligible tasks is disabled. In the following example, abuse_the_ram is the name of a program that attempts to iteratively allocate all available memory until it is stopped by force.
