The vmalloc guard pages are added on top of each allocation, thereby isolating any two allocations from one another. The top guard of the lower allocation is the bottom guard guard of the higher allocation etc. Therefore VM_NO_GUARD is dangerous; it breaks the basic premise of isolating separate allocations. There are only two in-tree users of this flag, neither of which use it through the exported interface. Ensure it stays this way.

The fallback was introduced in commit 80c33624 ("io-mapping: Fixup for different names of writecombine") to fix the build on microblaze. 5 years later, it seems all archs now provide a pgprot_writecombine(), so just remove the other possible fallbacks. For microblaze, pgprot_writecombine() is available since commit 97ccedd7 ("microblaze: Provide pgprot_device/writecombine macros for nommu"). This is build-tested on microblaze with a hack to always build mm/io-mapping.o and without DIYing on an x86-only macro (_PAGE_CACHE_MASK) Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20211020204838.1142908-1-lucas.demarchi@intel.comSigned-off-by:

All this vm_unacct_memory(charged) dance seems to complicate the life without a good reason. Furthermore, it seems not always done right on error-pathes in mremap_to(). And worse than that: this `charged' difference is sometimes double-accounted for growing MREMAP_DONTUNMAP mremap()s in move_vma(): if (security_vm_enough_memory_mm(mm, new_len >> PAGE_SHIFT)) Let's not do this. Account memory in mremap() fast-path for growing VMAs or in move_vma() for actually moving things. The same simpler way as it's done by vm_stat_account(), but with a difference to call security_vm_enough_memory_mm() before copying/adjusting VMA.

This patch follows the discussions on previous documentation patch threads [1][2]. It presents the exception case of shared memory management from the pagemap's point of view. It briefly describes what is missing, why it is missing and alternatives to the pagemap for page info retrieval in user space. In short, the kernel does not keep track of PTEs for swapped out shared pages within the processes that references them. Thus, the proc/pid/pagemap tool cannot print the swap destination of the shared memory pages, instead setting the pagemap entry to zero for both non-allocated and swapped out pages. This can create confusion for users who need information on swapped out pages. The reasons why maintaining the PTEs of all swapped out shared pages among all processes while maintaining similar performance is not a trivial task, or a desirable change, have been discussed extensively [1][3][4][5]. There are also arguments for why this arguably missing information should eventually be exposed to the user in either a future pagemap patch, or by an alternative tool.

The smp_wmb() which is in the __pte_alloc() is used to ensure all ptes setup is visible before the pte is made visible to other CPUs by being put into page tables. We only need this when the pte is actually populated, so move it to pmd_install(). __pte_alloc_kernel(), __p4d_alloc(), __pud_alloc() and __pmd_alloc() are similar to this case. We can also defer smp_wmb() to the place where the pmd entry is really populated by preallocated pte. There are two kinds of user of preallocated pte, one is filemap & finish_fault(), another is THP. The former does not need another smp_wmb() because the smp_wmb() has been done by pmd_install(). Fortunately, the latter also does not need another smp_wmb() because there is already a smp_wmb() before populating the new pte when the THP uses a preallocated pte to split a huge pmd.

Use the helper for the checks. Rename "check_mapping" into "zap_mapping" because "check_mapping" looks like a bool but in fact it stores the mapping itself. When it's set, we check the mapping (it must be non-NULL). When it's cleared we skip the check, which works like the old way. Move the duplicated comments to the helper too.

pte_unmap_same() will always unmap the pte pointer. After the unmap, vmf->pte will not be valid any more, we should clear it. It was safe only because no one is accessing vmf->pte after pte_unmap_same() returns, since the only caller of pte_unmap_same() (so far) is do_swap_page(), where vmf->pte will in most cases be overwritten very soon. Directly pass in vmf into pte_unmap_same() and then we can also avoid the long parameter list too, which should be a nice cleanup.

Patch series "mm: A few cleanup patches around zap, shmem and uffd", v4. IMHO all of them are very nice cleanups to existing code already, they're all small and self-contained. They'll be needed by uffd-wp coming series. This patch (of 4): It was conditionally done previously, as there's one shmem special case that we use SetPageDirty() instead. However that's not necessary and it should be easier and cleaner to do it unconditionally in mfill_atomic_install_pte(). The most recent discussion about this is here, where Hugh explained the history of SetPageDirty() and why it's possible that it's not required at all: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/alpine.LSU.2.11.2104121657050.1097@eggly.anvils/ Currently mfill_atomic_install_pte() has three callers: 1. shmem_mfill_atomic_pte 2. mcopy_atomic_pte 3. mcontinue_atomic_pte After the change: case (1) should have its SetPageDirty replaced by the dirty bit on pte (so we unify them together, finally), case (2) should have no functional change at all as it has page_in_cache==false, case (3) may add a dirty bit to the pte. However since case (3) is UFFDIO_CONTINUE for shmem, it's merely 100% sure the page is dirty after all because UFFDIO_CONTINUE normally requires another process to modify the page cache and kick the faulted thread, so should not make a real difference either. This should make it much easier to follow on which case will set dirty for uffd, as we'll simply set it all now for all uffd related ioctls. Meanwhile, no special handling of SetPageDirty() if there's no need.

Memory cgroup charging allows killed or exiting tasks to exceed the hard limit. It is assumed that the amount of the memory charged by those tasks is bound and most of the memory will get released while the task is exiting. This is resembling a heuristic for the global OOM situation when tasks get access to memory reserves. There is no global memory shortage at the memcg level so the memcg heuristic is more relieved. The above assumption is overly optimistic though. E.g. vmalloc can scale to really large requests and the heuristic would allow that. We used to have an early break in the vmalloc allocator for killed tasks but this has been reverted by commit b8c8a338 ("Revert "vmalloc: back off when the current task is killed""). There are likely other similar code paths which do not check for fatal signals in an allocation&charge loop. Also there are some kernel objects charged to a memcg which are not bound to a process life time. It has been observed that it is not really hard to trigger these bypasses and cause global OOM situation. One potential way to address these runaways would be to limit the amount of excess (similar to the global OOM with limited oom reserves). This is certainly possible but it is not really clear how much of an excess is desirable and still protects from global OOMs as that would have to consider the overall memcg configuration. This patch is addressing the problem by removing the heuristic altogether. Bypass is only allowed for requests which either cannot fail or where the failure is not desirable while excess should be still limited (e.g. atomic requests). Implementation wise a killed or dying task fails to charge if it has passed the OOM killer stage. That should give all forms of reclaim chance to restore the limit before the failure (ENOMEM) and tell the caller to back off. In addition, this patch renames should_force_charge() helper to task_is_dying() because now its use is not associated witch forced charging. This patch depends on pagefault_out_of_memory() to not trigger out_of_memory(), because then a memcg failure can unwind to VM_FAULT_OOM and cause a global OOM killer.

Any allocation failure during the #PF path will return with VM_FAULT_OOM which in turn results in pagefault_out_of_memory. This can happen for 2 different reasons. a) Memcg is out of memory and we rely on mem_cgroup_oom_synchronize to perform the memcg OOM handling or b) normal allocation fails. The latter is quite problematic because allocation paths already trigger out_of_memory and the page allocator tries really hard to not fail allocations. Anyway, if the OOM killer has been already invoked there is no reason to invoke it again from the #PF path. Especially when the OOM condition might be gone by that time and we have no way to find out other than allocate. Moreover if the allocation failed and the OOM killer hasn't been invoked then we are unlikely to do the right thing from the #PF context because we have already lost the allocation context and restictions and therefore might oom kill a task from a different NUMA domain. This all suggests that there is no legitimate reason to trigger out_of_memory from pagefault_out_of_memory so drop it. Just to be sure that no #PF path returns with VM_FAULT_OOM without allocation print a warning that this is happening before we restart the #PF. [VvS: #PF allocation can hit into limit of cgroup v1 kmem controller. This is a local problem related to memcg, however, it causes unnecessary global OOM kills that are repeated over and over again and escalate into a real disaster. This has been broken since kmem accounting has been introduced for cgroup v1 (3.8). There was no kmem specific reclaim for the separate limit so the only way to handle kmem hard limit was to return with ENOMEM. In upstream the problem will be fixed by removing the outdated kmem limit, however stable and LTS kernels cannot do it and are still affected. This patch fixes the problem and should be backported into stable/LTS.] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/f5fd8dd8-0ad4-c524-5f65-920b01972a42@virtuozzo.comSigned-off-by:

Patch series "memcg: prohibit unconditional exceeding the limit of dying tasks", v3. Memory cgroup charging allows killed or exiting tasks to exceed the hard limit. It can be misused and allowed to trigger global OOM from inside a memcg-limited container. On the other hand if memcg fails allocation, called from inside #PF handler it triggers global OOM from inside pagefault_out_of_memory(). To prevent these problems this patchset: (a) removes execution of out_of_memory() from pagefault_out_of_memory(), becasue nobody can explain why it is necessary. (b) allow memcg to fail allocation of dying/killed tasks. This patch (of 3): Any allocation failure during the #PF path will return with VM_FAULT_OOM which in turn results in pagefault_out_of_memory which in turn executes out_out_memory() and can kill a random task. An allocation might fail when the current task is the oom victim and there are no memory reserves left. The OOM killer is already handled at the page allocator level for the global OOM and at the charging level for the memcg one. Both have much more information about the scope of allocation/charge request. This means that either the OOM killer has been invoked properly and didn't lead to the allocation success or it has been skipped because it couldn't have been invoked. In both cases triggering it from here is pointless and even harmful. It makes much more sense to let the killed task die rather than to wake up an eternally hungry oom-killer and send him to choose a fatter victim for breakfast.

Since slab objects and kmem pages are charged to object cgroup instead of memory cgroup, memcg_reparent_objcgs() will reparent this cgroup and all its descendants to its parent cgroup. This already makes further list_lru_add()'s add elements to the parent's list. So it is unnecessary to change kmemcg_id of an offline cgroup to its parent's id. It just wastes CPU cycles. Just remove the redundant code. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20211025125102.56533-1-songmuchun@bytedance.comSigned-off-by:

Since commit 2788cf0c ("memcg: reparent list_lrus and free kmemcg_id on css offline"), ->nr_items can be negative during memory cgroup reparenting. In this case, list_lru_count_one() will return an unusual and huge value, which can surprise users. At least for now it hasn't affected any users. But it is better to let list_lru_count_ont() returns zero when ->nr_items is negative. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20211025124910.56433-1-songmuchun@bytedance.comSigned-off-by:

Since commit e5bc3af7 ("rcu: Consolidate PREEMPT and !PREEMPT synchronize_rcu()"), the critical section of spin lock can serve as an RCU read-side critical section which already allows readers that hold nlru->lock to avoid taking rcu lock. So just remove holding lock. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20211025124534.56345-1-songmuchun@bytedance.comSigned-off-by:

The deprecation process of kmem.limit_in_bytes started with the commit 0158115f ("memcg, kmem: deprecate kmem.limit_in_bytes") which also explains in detail the motivation behind the deprecation. To summarize, it is the unexpected behavior on hitting the kmem limit. This patch moves the deprecation process to the next stage by disallowing to set the kmem limit. In future we might just remove the kmem.limit_in_bytes file completely.

As noted in the "Deprecated Interfaces, Language Features, Attributes, and Conventions" documentation [1], size calculations (especially multiplication) should not be performed in memory allocator (or similar) function arguments due to the risk of them overflowing. This could lead to values wrapping around and a smaller allocation being made than the caller was expecting. Using those allocations could lead to linear overflows of heap memory and other misbehaviors. So, use the struct_size() helper to do the arithmetic instead of the argument "size + count * size" in the kvmalloc() functions. Also, take the opportunity to refactor the memcpy() call to use the flex_array_size() helper. This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle and audited and fixed manually.

Since commit d648bcc7 ("mm: kmem: make memcg_kmem_enabled() irreversible"), the only thing memcg_free_kmem() does is to call memcg_offline_kmem() when the memcg is still online which can happen when online_css() fails due to -ENOMEM. However, the name memcg_free_kmem() is confusing and it is more clear and straight forward to call memcg_offline_kmem() directly from mem_cgroup_css_free().

The memcg stats can be flushed in multiple context and potentially in parallel too. For example multiple parallel user space readers for memcg stats will contend on the rstat locks with each other. There is no need for that. We just need one flusher and everyone else can benefit. In addition after aa48e47e ("memcg: infrastructure to flush memcg stats") the kernel periodically flush the memcg stats from the root, so, the other flushers will potentially have much less work to do.

At the moment, the kernel flushes the memcg stats on every refault and also on every reclaim iteration. Although rstat maintains per-cpu update tree but on the flush the kernel still has to go through all the cpu rstat update tree to check if there is anything to flush. This patch adds the tracking on the stats update side to make flush side more clever by skipping the flush if there is no update. The stats update codepath is very sensitive performance wise for many workloads and benchmarks. So, we can not follow what the commit aa48e47e ("memcg: infrastructure to flush memcg stats") did which was triggering async flush through queue_work() and caused a lot performance regression reports. That got reverted by the commit 1f828223 ("memcg: flush lruvec stats in the refault"). In this patch we kept the stats update codepath very minimal and let the stats reader side to flush the stats only when the updates are over a specific threshold. For now the threshold is (nr_cpus * CHARGE_BATCH). To evaluate the impact of this patch, an 8 GiB tmpfs file is created on a system with swap-on-zram and the file was pushed to swap through memory.force_empty interface. On reading the whole file, the memcg stat flush in the refault code path is triggered. With this patch, we observed 63% reduction in the read time of 8 GiB file.

Instead of calling put_page() one page at a time, pop pages off the list if their refcount was too high and pass the remainder to put_unref_page_list(). This should be a speed improvement, but I have no measurements to support that. Current callers do not care about performance, but I hope to add some which do.

This one is just a minor nuisance for people going through /proc/swaps if any of their swapareas is bigger than, or equal to 1073741824 pages (4TB). seq_printf() format string casts as uint the conversion from pages to KB, and that will overflow in the aforementioned case. Albeit being almost unthinkable that someone would actually set up such big of a single swaparea, there is a ticket recently filed against RHEL: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2008812 Given that all other codesites that use format strings for the same swap pages-to-KB conversion do cast it as ulong, this patch just follows suit.

Commit 6401c4eb ("mm: gup: fix potential pgmap refcnt leak in __gup_device_huge()") simplified the return paths, but didn't go quite far enough, as discussed in [1].

It is not safe to check page->index without holding the page lock. It can be changed if the page is moved between the swap cache and the page cache for a shmem file, for example. There is a VM_BUG_ON below which checks page->index is correct after taking the page lock.

We always go through i_size_read(), and we rarely end up needing it. Push the read to down where we need to check it, which avoids it for most cases. It looks like we can even remove this check entirely, which might be worth pursuing. But at least this takes it out of the hot path.
