2014-06-04mm: nominate faultaround area in bytes rather than page orderKirill A. Shutemov1-39/+23
There is evidencs that the faultaround feature is less relevant on architectures with page size bigger then 4k. Which makes sense since page fault overhead per byte of mapped area should be less there. Let's rework the feature to specify faultaround area in bytes instead of page order. It's 64 kilobytes for now. The patch effectively disables faultaround on architectures with page size >= 64k (like ppc64). It's possible that some other size of faultaround area is relevant for a platform. We can expose `fault_around_bytes' variable to arch-specific code once such platforms will be found.

2014-06-04x86: define _PAGE_NUMA by reusing software bits on the PMD and PTE levelsMel Gorman1-10/+7
_PAGE_NUMA is currently an alias of _PROT_PROTNONE to trap NUMA hinting faults on x86. Care is taken such that _PAGE_NUMA is used only in situations where the VMA flags distinguish between NUMA hinting faults and prot_none faults. This decision was x86-specific and conceptually it is difficult requiring special casing to distinguish between PROTNONE and NUMA ptes based on context. Fundamentally, we only need the _PAGE_NUMA bit to tell the difference between an entry that is really unmapped and a page that is protected for NUMA hinting faults as if the PTE is not present then a fault will be trapped. Swap PTEs on x86-64 use the bits after _PAGE_GLOBAL for the offset. This patch shrinks the maximum possible swap size and uses the bit to uniquely distinguish between NUMA hinting ptes and swap ptes.

2014-05-07mm/numa: Remove BUG_ON() in __handle_mm_fault()Rik van Riel1-3/+0
Changing PTEs and PMDs to pte_numa & pmd_numa is done with the mmap_sem held for reading, which means a pmd can be instantiated and turned into a numa one while __handle_mm_fault() is examining the value of old_pmd. If that happens, __handle_mm_fault() should just return and let the page fault retry, instead of throwing an oops. This is handled by the test for pmd_trans_huge(*pmd) below.

2014-04-25mm: split 'tlb_flush_mmu()' into tlb flushing and memory freeing partsLinus Torvalds1-19/+34
The mmu-gather operation 'tlb_flush_mmu()' has done two things: the actual tlb flush operation, and the batched freeing of the pages that the TLB entries pointed at. This splits the operation into separate phases, so that the forced batched flushing done by zap_pte_range() can now do the actual TLB flush while still holding the page table lock, but delay the batched freeing of all the pages to after the lock has been dropped. This in turn allows us to avoid a race condition between set_page_dirty() (as called by zap_pte_range() when it finds a dirty shared memory pte) and page_mkclean(): because we now flush all the dirty page data from the TLB's while holding the pte lock, page_mkclean() will be held up walking the (recently cleaned) page tables until after the TLB entries have been flushed from all CPU's.

2014-04-22mm: make fixup_user_fault() check the vma access rights tooLinus Torvalds1-0/+5
fixup_user_fault() is used by the futex code when the direct user access fails, and the futex code wants it to either map in the page in a usable form or return an error. It relied on handle_mm_fault() to map the page, and correctly checked the error return from that, but while that does map the page, it doesn't actually guarantee that the page will be mapped with sufficient permissions to be then accessed. So do the appropriate tests of the vma access rights by hand. [ Side note: arguably handle_mm_fault() could just do that itself, but we have traditionally done it in the caller, because some callers - notably get_user_pages() - have been able to access pages even when they are mapped with PROT_NONE. Maybe we should re-visit that design decision, but in the meantime this is the minimal patch. ] Found by Dave Jones running his trinity tool.

2014-04-07mm: introduce vm_ops->map_pages()Kirill A. Shutemov1-3/+78
Here's new version of faultaround patchset. It took a while to tune it and collect performance data. First patch adds new callback ->map_pages to vm_operations_struct. ->map_pages() is called when VM asks to map easy accessible pages. Filesystem should find and map pages associated with offsets from "pgoff" till "max_pgoff". ->map_pages() is called with page table locked and must not block. If it's not possible to reach a page without blocking, filesystem should skip it. Filesystem should use do_set_pte() to setup page table entry. Pointer to entry associated with offset "pgoff" is passed in "pte" field in vm_fault structure. Pointers to entries for other offsets should be calculated relative to "pte". Currently VM use ->map_pages only on read page fault path. We try to map FAULT_AROUND_PAGES a time. FAULT_AROUND_PAGES is 16 for now. Performance data for different FAULT_AROUND_ORDER is below. TODO: - implement ->map_pages() for shmem/tmpfs; - modify get_user_pages() to be able to use ->map_pages() and implement mmap(MAP_POPULATE|MAP_NONBLOCK) on top. ========================================================================= Tested on 4-socket machine (120 threads) with 128GiB of RAM. Few real-world workloads. The sweet spot for FAULT_AROUND_ORDER here is somewhere between 3 and 5.

2014-04-04mm: get_user_pages(write,force) refuse to COW in shared areasHugh Dickins1-21/+45
get_user_pages(write=1, force=1) has always had odd behaviour on write- protected shared mappings: although it demands FMODE_WRITE-access to the underlying object (do_mmap_pgoff sets neither VM_SHARED nor VM_MAYWRITE without that), it ends up with do_wp_page substituting private anonymous Copied-On-Write pages for the shared file pages in the area. That was long ago intentional, as a safety measure to prevent ptrace setting a breakpoint (or POKETEXT or POKEDATA) from inadvertently corrupting the underlying executable. Yet exec and dynamic loaders open the file read-only, and use MAP_PRIVATE rather than MAP_SHARED. The traditional odd behaviour still causes surprises and bugs in mm, and is probably not what any caller wants - even the comment on the flag says "You do not want this" (although it's undoubtedly necessary for overriding userspace protections in some contexts, and good when !write). Let's stop doing that. But it would be dangerous to remove the long- standing safety at this stage, so just make get_user_pages(write,force) fail with EFAULT when applied to a write-protected shared area. Infiniband may in future want to force write through to underlying object: we can add another FOLL_flag later to enable that if required. Odd though the old behaviour was, there is no doubt that we may turn out to break userspace with this change, and have to revert it quickly. Issue a WARN_ON_ONCE to help debug the changed case (easily triggered by userspace, so only once to prevent spamming the logs); and delay a few associated cleanups until this change is proved. get_user_pages callers who might see trouble from this change: ptrace poking, or writing to /proc/<pid>/mem drivers/infiniband/ drivers/media/v4l2-core/ drivers/gpu/drm/exynos/exynos_drm_gem.c drivers/staging/tidspbridge/core/tiomap3430.c if they ever apply get_user_pages to write-protected shared mappings of an object which was opened for writing. I went to apply the same change to mm/nommu.c, but retreated. NOMMU has no place for COW, and its VM_flags conventions are not the same: I'd be more likely to screw up NOMMU than make an improvement there.

2014-02-25mm, thp: fix infinite loop on memcg OOMKirill A. Shutemov1-11/+3
Masayoshi Mizuma reported a bug with the hang of an application under the memcg limit. It happens on write-protection fault to huge zero page If we successfully allocate a huge page to replace zero page but hit the memcg limit we need to split the zero page with split_huge_page_pmd() and fallback to small pages. The other part of the problem is that VM_FAULT_OOM has special meaning in do_huge_pmd_wp_page() context. __handle_mm_fault() expects the page to be split if it sees VM_FAULT_OOM and it will will retry page fault handling. This causes an infinite loop if the page was not split. do_huge_pmd_wp_zero_page_fallback() can return VM_FAULT_OOM if it failed to allocate one small page, so fallback to small pages will not help. The solution for this part is to replace VM_FAULT_OOM with VM_FAULT_FALLBACK is fallback required. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

Most of the VM_BUG_ON assertions are performed on a page. Usually, when one of these assertions fails we'll get a BUG_ON with a call stack and the registers. I've recently noticed based on the requests to add a small piece of code that dumps the page to various VM_BUG_ON sites that the page dump is quite useful to people debugging issues in mm. This patch adds a VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(cond, page) which beyond doing what VM_BUG_ON() does, also dumps the page before executing the actual BUG_ON.

bad_page() is cool in that it prints out a bunch of data about the page. But, I can never remember which page flags are good and which are bad, or whether ->index or ->mapping is required to be NULL. This patch allows bad/dump_page() callers to specify a string about why they are dumping the page and adds explanation strings to a number of places. It also adds a 'bad_flags' argument to bad_page(), which it then dumps out separately from the flags which are actually set. This way, the messages will show specifically why the page was bad, *specifically* which flags it is complaining about, if it was a page flag combination which was the problem.

2014-01-21mm: create a separate slab for page->ptl allocationKirill A. Shutemov1-2/+11
If DEBUG_SPINLOCK and DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC are enabled spinlock_t on x86_64 is 72 bytes. For page->ptl they will be allocated from kmalloc-96 slab, so we loose 24 on each.

To make sure that it really works this time, some numbers from my test machine (just booted, no load): Before: # grep '^\(kmalloc-96\|page->ptl\)' /proc/slabinfo kmalloc-96 31987 32190 128 30 1 : tunables 120 60 8 : slabdata 1073 1073 92 After: # grep '^\(kmalloc-96\|page->ptl\)' /proc/slabinfo page->ptl 27516 28143 72 53 1 : tunables 120 60 8 : slabdata 531 531 9 kmalloc-96 3853 5280 128 30 1 : tunables 120 60 8 : slabdata 176 176 0 Note that the patch is useful not only for debug case, but also for PREEMPT_RT, where spinlock_t is always bloated.

2014-01-21dma-debug: introduce debug_dma_assert_idle()Dan Williams1-0/+3
Record actively mapped pages and provide an api for asserting a given page is dma inactive before execution proceeds. Placing debug_dma_assert_idle() in cow_user_page() flagged the violation of the dma-api in the NET_DMA implementation (see commit 77873803363c "net_dma: mark broken"). The implementation includes the capability to count, in a limited way, repeat mappings of the same page that occur without an intervening unmap. This 'overlap' counter is limited to the few bits of tag space in a radix tree. This mechanism is added to mitigate false negative cases where, for example, a page is dma mapped twice and debug_dma_assert_idle() is called after the page is un-mapped once.

Al points out that while the commit *does* actually create a separate slab for the page->ptl allocation, that slab is never actually used, and the code continues to use kmalloc/kfree. Damien Wyart points out that the original patch did have the conversion to use kmem_cache_alloc/free, so it got lost somewhere on its way to me. Revert the half-arsed attempt that didn't do anything. If we really do want the special slab (remember: this is all relevant just for debug builds, so it's not necessarily all that critical) we might as well redo the patch fully.

If split page table lock is in use, we embed the lock into struct page of table's page. We have to disable split lock, if spinlock_t is too big be to be embedded, like when DEBUG_SPINLOCK or DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC enabled. This patch add support for dynamic allocation of split page table lock if we can't embed it to struct page. page->ptl is unsigned long now and we use it as spinlock_t if sizeof(spinlock_t) <= sizeof(long), otherwise it's pointer to spinlock_t.

2013-10-29mm: numa: Sanitize task_numa_fault() callsitesMel Gorman1-32/+21
There are three callers of task_numa_fault(): - do_huge_pmd_numa_page(): Accounts against the current node, not the node where the page resides, unless we migrated, in which case it accounts against the node we migrated to. - do_numa_page(): Accounts against the current node, not the node where the page resides, unless we migrated, in which case it accounts against the node we migrated to. - do_pmd_numa_page(): Accounts not at all when the page isn't migrated, otherwise accounts against the node we migrated towards. This seems wrong to me; all three sites should have the same sementaics, furthermore we should accounts against where the page really is, we already know where the task is. So modify all three sites to always account; we did after all receive the fault; and always account to where the page is after migration, regardless of success. They all still differ on when they clear the PTE/PMD; ideally that would get sorted too.

2013-10-16mm: memcg: handle non-error OOM situations more gracefullyJohannes Weiner1-6/+12
Commit 3812c8c8f395 ("mm: memcg: do not trap chargers with full callstack on OOM") assumed that only a few places that can trigger a memcg OOM situation do not return VM_FAULT_OOM, like optional page cache readahead. But there are many more and it's impractical to annotate them all. First of all, we don't want to invoke the OOM killer when the failed allocation is gracefully handled, so defer the actual kill to the end of the fault handling as well. This simplifies the code quite a bit for added bonus. Second, since a failed allocation might not be the abrupt end of the fault, the memcg OOM handler needs to be re-entrant until the fault finishes for subsequent allocation attempts. If an allocation is attempted after the task already OOMed, allow it to bypass the limit so that it can quickly finish the fault and invoke the OOM killer.

2013-10-09sched/numa: Adjust scan rate in task_numa_placementRik van Riel1-3/+6
Adjust numa_scan_period in task_numa_placement, depending on how much useful work the numa code can do. The more local faults there are in a given scan window the longer the period (and hence the slower the scan rate) during the next window. If there are excessive shared faults then the scan period will decrease with the amount of scaling depending on whether the ratio of shared/private faults. If the preferred node changes then the scan rate is reset to recheck if the task is properly placed.

2013-10-09sched/numa: Be more careful about joining numa groupsRik van Riel1-0/+7
Due to the way the pid is truncated, and tasks are moved between CPUs by the scheduler, it is possible for the current task_numa_fault to group together tasks that do not actually share memory together. This patch adds a few easy sanity checks to task_numa_fault, joining tasks together if they share the same tsk->mm, or if the fault was on a page with an elevated mapcount, in a shared VMA.

2013-10-09mm: numa: Do not batch handle PMD pagesMel Gorman1-99/+2
With the THP migration races closed it is still possible to occasionally see corruption. The problem is related to handling PMD pages in batch. When a page fault is handled it can be assumed that the page being faulted will also be flushed from the TLB. The same flushing does not happen when handling PMD pages in batch. Fixing is straight forward but there are a number of reasons not to 1. Multiple TLB flushes may have to be sent depending on what pages get migrated 2. The handling of PMDs in batch means that faults get accounted to the task that is handling the fault. While care is taken to only mark PMDs where the last CPU and PID match it can still have problems due to PID truncation when matching PIDs. 3. Batching on the PMD level may reduce faults but setting pmd_numa requires taking a heavy lock that can contend with THP migration and handling the fault requires the release/acquisition of the PTL for every page migrated. It's still pretty heavy. PMD batch handling is not something that people ever have been happy with. This patch removes it and later patches will deal with the additional fault overhead using more installigent migrate rate adaption.

2013-10-09mm: numa: Do not group on RO pagesPeter Zijlstra1-4/+26
And here's a little something to make sure not the whole world ends up in a single group. As while we don't migrate shared executable pages, we do scan/fault on them. And since everybody links to libc, everybody ends up in the same group.

2013-10-09sched/numa: Use {cpu, pid} to create task groups for shared faultsPeter Zijlstra1-0/+8
While parallel applications tend to align their data on the cache boundary, they tend not to align on the page or THP boundary. Consequently tasks that partition their data can still "false-share" pages presenting a problem for optimal NUMA placement. This patch uses NUMA hinting faults to chain tasks together into numa_groups. As well as storing the NID a task was running on when accessing a page a truncated representation of the faulting PID is stored. If subsequent faults are from different PIDs it is reasonable to assume that those two tasks share a page and are candidates for being grouped together. Note that this patch makes no scheduling decisions based on the grouping information.
