HAVE_FAST_GUP enables the lockless quick page table walker for simple cases, and is a nice optimization for some random loads that can then use get_user_pages_fast() rather than the more careful page walker. However, for some unexplained reason, it seems to be subtly broken on sparc64. The breakage is only with some compiler versions and some hardware, and nobody seems to have figured out what triggers it, although there's a simple reprodicer for the problem when it does trigger. The problem was introduced with the conversion to the generic GUP code in commit 7b9afb86 ("sparc64: use the generic get_user_pages_fast code"), but nothing looks obviously wrong in that conversion. It may be a compiler bug that just hits us with the code reorganization. Or it may be something very specific to sparc64. This disables HAVE_FAST_GUP entirely. That makes things like futexes a bit slower, but at least they work. If we can figure out the trigger, that would be lovely, but it's been three months already..

Mmap /dev/dax more than once, then read the poison location using address from one of the mappings. The other mappings due to not having the page mapped in will cause SIGKILLs delivered to the process. SIGKILL succeeds over SIGBUS, so user process loses the opportunity to handle the UE. Although one may add MAP_POPULATE to mmap(2) to work around the issue, MAP_POPULATE makes mapping 128GB of pmem several magnitudes slower, so isn't always an option.

Florian and Dave reported [1] a NULL pointer dereference in __reset_isolation_pfn(). While the exact cause is unclear, staring at the code revealed two bugs, which might be related. One bug is that if zone starts in the middle of pageblock, block_page might correspond to different pfn than block_pfn, and then the pfn_valid_within() checks will check different pfn's than those accessed via struct page. This might result in acessing an unitialized page in CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE configs. The other bug is that end_page refers to the first page of next pageblock and not last page of current pageblock. The online and valid check is then wrong and with sections, the while (page < end_page) loop might wander off actual struct page arrays.

Commit b39d0ee2 ("mm, page_alloc: avoid expensive reclaim when compaction may not succeed") has chnaged the allocator to bail out from the allocator early to prevent from a potentially excessive memory reclaim. __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL is designed to retry the allocation, reclaim and compaction loop as long as there is a reasonable chance to make forward progress. Neither COMPACT_SKIPPED nor COMPACT_DEFERRED at the INIT_COMPACT_PRIORITY compaction attempt gives this feedback. The most obvious affected subsystem is hugetlbfs which allocates huge pages based on an admin request (or via admin configured overcommit). I have done a simple test which tries to allocate half of the memory for hugetlb pages while the memory is full of a clean page cache. This is not an unusual situation because we try to cache as much of the memory as possible and sysctl/sysfs interface to allocate huge pages is there for flexibility to allocate hugetlb pages at any time. System has 1GB of RAM and we are requesting 515MB worth of hugetlb pages after the memory is prefilled by a clean page cache: root@test1:~# cat hugetlb_test.sh set -x echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory dd if=/mnt/data/file-1G of=/dev/null bs=$((4<<10)) TS=$(date +%s) echo 256 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages The results for 2 consecutive runs on clean 5.3 root@test1:~# sh hugetlb_test.sh + echo 0 + echo 3 + echo 1 + dd if=/mnt/data/file-1G of=/dev/null bs=4096 262144+0 records in 262144+0 records out 1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 21.0694 s, 51.0 MB/s + date +%s + TS=1569905284 + echo 256 + cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages 256 root@test1:~# sh hugetlb_test.sh + echo 0 + echo 3 + echo 1 + dd if=/mnt/data/file-1G of=/dev/null bs=4096 262144+0 records in 262144+0 records out 1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 21.7548 s, 49.4 MB/s + date +%s + TS=1569905311 + echo 256 + cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages 256 Now with b39d0ee2 applied root@test1:~# sh hugetlb_test.sh + echo 0 + echo 3 + echo 1 + dd if=/mnt/data/file-1G of=/dev/null bs=4096 262144+0 records in 262144+0 records out 1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 20.1815 s, 53.2 MB/s + date +%s + TS=1569905516 + echo 256 + cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages 11 root@test1:~# sh hugetlb_test.sh + echo 0 + echo 3 + echo 1 + dd if=/mnt/data/file-1G of=/dev/null bs=4096 262144+0 records in 262144+0 records out 1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 21.9485 s, 48.9 MB/s + date +%s + TS=1569905541 + echo 256 + cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages 12 The success rate went down by factor of 20! Although hugetlb allocation requests might fail and it is reasonable to expect them to under extremely fragmented memory or when the memory is under a heavy pressure but the above situation is not that case. Fix the regression by reverting back to the previous behavior for __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL requests and disable the beail out heuristic for those requests. Mike said: : hugetlbfs allocations are commonly done via sysctl/sysfs shortly after : boot where this may not be as much of an issue. However, I am aware of at : least three use cases where allocations are made after the system has been : up and running for quite some time: : : - DB reconfiguration.

It was also mentioned that if something like : b39d0ee2 went forward, I would like exemptions for __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL : requests as in this patch.

slab_alloc_node() already zeroed out the freelist pointer if init_on_free was on. Thibaut Sautereau noticed that the same needs to be done for kmem_cache_alloc_bulk(), which performs the allocations separately. kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() is currently used in two places in the kernel, so this change is unlikely to have a major performance impact. SLAB doesn't require a similar change, as auto-initialization makes the allocator store the freelist pointers off-slab.

A long time ago we fixed a similar deadlock in show_slab_objects() [1]. However, it is apparently due to the commits like 01fb58bc ("slab: remove synchronous synchronize_sched() from memcg cache deactivation path") and 03afc0e2 ("slab: get_online_mems for kmem_cache_{create,destroy,shrink}"), this kind of deadlock is back by just reading files in /sys/kernel/slab which will generate a lockdep splat below. Since the "mem_hotplug_lock" here is only to obtain a stable online node mask while racing with NUMA node hotplug, in the worst case, the results may me miscalculated while doing NUMA node hotplug, but they shall be corrected by later reads of the same files.

Commit 8974558f ("mm, page_owner, debug_pagealloc: save and dump freeing stack trace") enhanced page_owner to also store freeing stack trace, when debug_pagealloc is also enabled. KASAN would also like to do this [1] to improve error reports to debug e.g. UAF issues. Kirill has suggested that the freeing stack trace saving should be also possible to be enabled separately from KASAN or debug_pagealloc, i.e. with an extra boot option. Qian argued that we have enough options already, and avoiding the extra overhead is not worth the complications in the case of a debugging option. Kirill noted that the extra stack handle in struct page_owner requires 0.1% of memory. This patch therefore enables free stack saving whenever page_owner is enabled, regardless of whether debug_pagealloc or KASAN is also enabled. KASAN kernels booted with page_owner=on will thus benefit from the improved error reports.

Patch series "followups to debug_pagealloc improvements through page_owner", v3. These are followups to [1] which made it to Linus meanwhile. Patches 1 and 3 are based on Kirill's review, patch 2 on KASAN request [2]. It would be nice if all of this made it to 5.4 with [1] already there (or at least Patch 1). This patch (of 3): As noted by Kirill, commit 7e2f2a0c ("mm, page_owner: record page owner for each subpage") has introduced an off-by-one error in __set_page_owner_handle() when looking up page_ext for subpages. As a result, the head page page_owner info is set twice, while for the last tail page, it's not set at all. Fix this and also make the code more efficient by advancing the page_ext pointer we already have, instead of calling lookup_page_ext() for each subpage. Since the full size of struct page_ext is not known at compile time, we can't use a simple page_ext++ statement, so introduce a page_ext_next() inline function for that.

In case of an error (e.g. memory pool too small), kmemleak disables itself and cleans up the already allocated metadata objects. However, if this happens early before the RCU callback mechanism is available, put_object() skips call_rcu() and frees the object directly. This is not safe with the RCU list traversal in __kmemleak_do_cleanup(). Change the list traversal in __kmemleak_do_cleanup() to list_for_each_entry_safe() and remove the rcu_read_{lock,unlock} since the kmemleak is already disabled at this point. In addition, avoid an unnecessary metadata object rb-tree look-up since it already has the struct kmemleak_object pointer.

There is no loop. So, it must be looping in the caller tracing_read_pipe() via the "waitagain" label. Crashdump analyze uncovered that iter->seq was completely zeroed at this point, including iter->seq.seq.size. It means that print_trace_line() was never able to print anything and there was no forward progress. The culprit seems to be in the code: /* reset all but tr, trace, and overruns */ memset(&iter->seq, 0, sizeof(struct trace_iterator) - offsetof(struct trace_iterator, seq)); It was added by the commit 53d0aa77 ("ftrace: add logic to record overruns"). It was v2.6.27-rc1. It was the time when iter->seq looked like: struct trace_seq { unsigned char buffer[PAGE_SIZE]; unsigned int len; }; There was no "size" variable and zeroing was perfectly fine. The solution is to reinitialize the structure after or without zeroing.

The removal of the longjmp code in recordmcount.c mistakenly made the return of make_nop() being negative an exit of nop_mcount(). It should not exit the routine, but instead just not process that part of the code. By exiting with an error code, it would cause the update of recordmcount to fail some files which would fail the build if ftrace function tracing was enabled.

Added various checks on open tracefs calls to see if tracefs is in lockdown mode, and if so, to return -EPERM. Note, the event format files (which are basically standard on all machines) as well as the enabled_functions file (which shows what is currently being traced) are not lockde down. Perhaps they should be, but it seems counter intuitive to lockdown information to help you know if the system has been modified.

Currently, most files in the tracefs directory test if tracing_disabled is set. If so, it should return -ENODEV. The tracing_disabled is called when tracing is found to be broken. Originally it was done in case the ring buffer was found to be corrupted, and we wanted to prevent reading it from crashing the kernel. But it's also called if a tracing selftest fails on boot. It's a one way switch. That is, once it is triggered, tracing is disabled until reboot. As most tracefs files can also be used by instances in the tracefs directory, they need to be carefully done. Each instance has a trace_array associated to it, and when the instance is removed, the trace_array is freed. But if an instance is opened with a reference to the trace_array, then it requires looking up the trace_array to get its ref counter (as there could be a race with it being deleted and the open itself). Once it is found, a reference is added to prevent the instance from being removed (and the trace_array associated with it freed). Combine the two checks (tracing_disabled and trace_array_get()) into a single helper function. This will also make it easier to add lockdown to tracefs later.
