A process's comm, including current's comm, may change due to

- fatal signal pending
- too many pages isolated in the zone (only for async compaction)

until SIGKILL is delivered.  If SIGKILL is delivered before TIF_MEMDIE is
set, the oom-depleter can terminate without touching memory reserves.

Although the possibility of hitting this time lag is very small for 3.19
and earlier kernels because TIF_MEMDIE is set immediately before sending
SIGKILL, preemption or long interrupts (an extreme example is SysRq-t) can
step between and allow memory allocations which are not needed for
terminating the OOM victim.

filemap_fdatawait() is a function to wait for on-going writeback to

writeback.

The latter functionality is critical for applications to detect writeback
error with system calls like fsync(2)/fdatasync(2).

However filemap_fdatawait() is also used by sync(2) or FIFREEZE ioctl,
which don't check error status of individual mappings.

As a result, fsync() may not be able to detect writeback error if events
happen in the following order:

   Application                    System admin
   ----------------------------------------------------------
   write data on page cache
                                  Run sync command
                                  writeback completes with error
                                  filemap_fdatawait() clears error

mm: use only per-device readahead limit

Maximal readahead size is limited now by two values:
 1) by global 2Mb constant (MAX_READAHEAD in max_sane_readahead())
 2) by configurable per-device value* (bdi->ra_pages)

There are devices, which require custom readahead limit.
For instance, for RAIDs it's calculated as number of devices
multiplied by chunk size times 2.

Readahead size can never be larger than bdi->ra_pages * 2 value
(POSIX_FADV_SEQUNTIAL doubles readahead size).

If so, why do we need two limits?
I suggest to completely remove this max_sane_readahead() stuff and
use per-device readahead limit everywhere.

Also, using right readahead size for RAID disks can significantly
increase i/o performance:

before:
  dd if=/dev/md2 of=/dev/null bs=100M count=100

But, since sparse numa node ids possible on powerpc, we unnecessarily
allocate memory for non existent numa nodes.

For e.g., on a system with 0,1,16,17 as numa nodes nr_node_ids=18 and
we allocate memory for nodes 2-14.  This patch we allocate memory for
only existing numa nodes.

memcg: ratify and consolidate over-charge handling

try_charge() is the main charging logic of memcg.  When it hits the limit
but either can't fail the allocation due to __GFP_NOFAIL or the task is
likely to free memory very soon, being OOM killed, has SIGKILL pending or
exiting, it "bypasses" the charge to the root memcg and returns -EINTR.
While this is one approach which can be taken for these situations, it has
several issues.

* It unnecessarily lies about the reality.  The number itself doesn't
  go over the limit but the actual usage does.  memcg is either forced
  to or actively chooses to go over the limit because that is the
  right behavior under the circumstances, which is completely fine,
  but, if at all avoidable, it shouldn't be misrepresenting what's
  happening by sneaking the charges into the root memcg.

* Despite trying, we already do over-charge.  kmemcg can't deal with
  switching over to the root memcg by the point try_charge() returns
  -EINTR, so it open-codes over-charing.

* It complicates the callers.  Each try_charge() user has to handle
  the weird -EINTR exception.  memcg_charge_kmem() does the manual
  over-charging.  mem_cgroup_do_precharge() performs unnecessary
  uncharging of root memcg, which BTW is inconsistent with what
  memcg_charge_kmem() does but not broken as [un]charging are noops on
  root memcg.  mem_cgroup_try_charge() needs to switch the returned
  cgroup to the root one.

The reality is that in memcg there are cases where we are forced and/or
willing to go over the limit.  Each such case needs to be scrutinized and
justified but there definitely are situations where that is the right
thing to do.  We alredy do this but with a superficial and inconsistent
disguise which leads to unnecessary complications.

This patch updates try_charge() so that it over-charges and returns 0 when
deemed necessary.  -EINTR return is removed along with all special case
handling in the callers.

While at it, remove the local variable @ret, which was initialized to zero
and never changed, along with done: label which just returned the always
zero @ret.

8 years agomemcg: punt high overage reclaim to return-to-userland path
Tejun Heo [Fri, 6 Nov 2015 02:46:11 +0000 (18:46 -0800)]
memcg: punt high overage reclaim to return-to-userland path

Currently, try_charge() tries to reclaim memory synchronously when the
high limit is breached; however, if the allocation doesn't have
__GFP_WAIT, synchronous reclaim is skipped.  If a process performs only
speculative allocations, it can blow way past the high limit.  This is
actually easily reproducible by simply doing "find /".  slab/slub
allocator tries speculative allocations first, so as long as there's
memory which can be consumed without blocking, it can keep allocating
memory regardless of the high limit.

This patch makes try_charge() always punt the over-high reclaim to the
return-to-userland path.  If try_charge() detects that high limit is
breached, it adds the overage to current->memcg_nr_pages_over_high and
schedules execution of mem_cgroup_handle_over_high() which performs
synchronous reclaim from the return-to-userland path.

As long as kernel doesn't have a run-away allocation spree, this should
provide enough protection while making kmemcg behave more consistently.
It also has the following benefits.

- All over-high reclaims can use GFP_KERNEL regardless of the specific
  gfp mask in use, e.g. GFP_NOFS, when the limit was breached.

- It copes with prio inversion.  Previously, a low-prio task with
  small memory.high might perform over-high reclaim with a bunch of
  locks held.  If a higher prio task needed any of these locks, it
  would have to wait until the low prio task finished reclaim and
  released the locks.  By handing over-high reclaim to the task exit
  path this issue can be avoided.

uaccess: reimplement probe_kernel_address() using probe_kernel_read()

probe_kernel_address() is basically the same as the (later added)

returns number-of-bytes-not-copied whereas probe_kernel_read() returns
-EFAULT.  All callers have been checked, none cared.

probe_kernel_read() can be overridden by the architecture whereas
probe_kernel_address() cannot.  parisc, blackfin and um do this, to insert
additional checking.  Hence this patch possibly fixes obscure bugs,
although there are only two probe_kernel_address() callsites outside
arch/.

My first attempt involved removing probe_kernel_address() entirely and
converting all callsites to use probe_kernel_read() directly, but that got
tiresome.

This patch shrinks mm/slab_common.o by 218 bytes.  For a single

mm: slab: only move management objects off-slab for sizes larger than KMALLOC_MIN_SIZE

On systems with a KMALLOC_MIN_SIZE of 128 (arm64, some mips and powerpc
configurations defining ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN to 128), the first
kmalloc_caches[] entry to be initialised after slab_early_init = 0 is
"kmalloc-128" with index 7.  Depending on the debug kernel configuration,
sizeof(struct kmem_cache) can be larger than 128 resulting in an
INDEX_NODE of 8.

Commit 8fc9cf420b36 ("slab: make more slab management structure off the
slab") enables off-slab management objects for sizes starting with
PAGE_SIZE >> 5 (128 bytes for a 4KB page configuration) and the creation
of the "kmalloc-128" cache would try to place the management objects
off-slab.  However, since KMALLOC_MIN_SIZE is already 128 and
freelist_size == 32 in __kmem_cache_create(), kmalloc_slab(freelist_size)
returns NULL (kmalloc_caches[7] not populated yet).  This triggers the
following bug on arm64:

The last patch in the series addresses Linus' comment from
http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=144148518703321&w=2

(well, it's been some time. sorry.)

gnuplot script takes the slabinfo records file, where every record is a `slabinfo -X'
output. So the basic workflow is, for example, as follows:

        while [ 1 ]; do slabinfo -X -N 2 >> stats; sleep 1; done
        ^C
        slabinfo-gnuplot.sh stats

The last command will produce 3 png files (and 3 stats files)
-- graph of slabinfo totals
-- graph of slabs by size
-- graph of slabs by loss

It's also possible to select a range of records for plotting (a range of collected
slabinfo outputs) via `-r 10,100` (for example); and compare totals from several
measurements (to visially compare slabs behaviour (10,50 range)) using
pre-parsed totals files:
        slabinfo-gnuplot.sh -r 10,50 -t stats-totals1 .. stats-totals2

This also, technically, supports ktest. Upload new slabinfo to target,
collect the stats and give the resulting stats file to slabinfo-gnuplot

This patch (of 8):

Use getopt constants in `struct option' ->has_arg instead of numerical
representations.

mm/slab_common.c: do not warn that cache is busy on destroy more than once

print a warning for each per memcg cache attached to it that has active
objects (see shutdown_cache).  This is redundant, because it gives no new
information and only clutters the log.  If a cache being destroyed has
active objects, there must be a memory leak in the module that created the
cache, and it does not matter if the cache was used by users in memory
cgroups or not.

This patch moves the warning from shutdown_cache(), which is called for
shutting down both global and per memcg caches, to kmem_cache_destroy(),
so that the warning is only printed once if there are objects left in the

8 years agowatchdog: fix error handling in proc_watchdog_thresh()
Ulrich Obergfell [Fri, 6 Nov 2015 02:44:27 +0000 (18:44 -0800)]
watchdog: fix error handling in proc_watchdog_thresh()

The original watchdog_park_threads() function that was introduced by
commit 81a4beef91ba ("watchdog: introduce watchdog_park_threads() and
watchdog_unpark_threads()") takes a very simple approach to handle
errors returned by kthread_park(): It attempts to roll back all watchdog
threads to the unparked state.  However, this may be undesired behaviour
from the perspective of the caller which may want to handle errors as
appropriate in its specific context.  Currently, there are two possible
call chains:

- watchdog suspend/resume interface

    lockup_detector_suspend
      watchdog_park_threads

- write to parameters in /proc/sys/kernel

    proc_watchdog_update
      watchdog_enable_all_cpus
        update_watchdog_all_cpus
          watchdog_park_threads

Instead of 'blindly' attempting to unpark the watchdog threads if a
kthread_park() call fails, the new approach is to disable the lockup
detectors in the above call chains.  Failure becomes visible to the user
as follows:

- error messages from lockup_detector_suspend()
                   or watchdog_enable_all_cpus()

- the state that can be read from /proc/sys/kernel/watchdog_enabled

- the 'write' system call in the latter call chain returns an error

I did not experience kthread_park() failures in practice, I used some
instrumentation to fake error returns from kthread_park() in order to test
the patches.

This patch (of 5):

Restore the previous value of watchdog_thresh _and_ sample_period if
proc_watchdog_update() returns an error.  The variables must be consistent
to avoid false positives of the lockup detectors.

rcu: force alignment on struct callback_head/rcu_head

Make struct callback_head aligned to size of pointer.  On most
architectures it happens naturally due ABI requirements, but some
architectures (like CRIS) have weird ABI and we need to ask it explicitly.

The alignment is required to guarantee that bits 0 and 1 of @next will be
clear under normal conditions -- as long as we use call_rcu(),
call_rcu_bh(), call_rcu_sched(), or call_srcu() to queue callback.

This guarantee is important for few reasons:
 - future call_rcu_lazy() will make use of lower bits in the pointer;
 - the structure shares storage spacer in struct page with @compound_head,
   which encode PageTail() in bit 0. The guarantee is needed to avoid
   false-positive PageTail().

False postive PageTail() caused crash on crisv32[1].  It happend due
misaligned task_struct->rcu, which was byte-aligned.

localalloc=2048 (2G), since a gd is 32256M (about 31.5G) and a localalloc

gd1, ...

One way to improve performance is enlarge localalloc window size (max
31104M), but this will make end user feel that about 30G is suddenly
"missing", and localalloc currently do not support steal, which means one
node cannot use another node's localalloc even it is not used in fact.  So
using the last gd to record the allocation and continues with the gd if it
has enough space for a localalloc window can make the allocation as more
contiguous as possible.

inotify: actually check for invalid bits in sys_inotify_add_watch()

The comment here says that it is checking for invalid bits.  But, the mask
is *actually* checking to ensure that _any_ valid bit is set, which is
quite different.

Without this check, an unexpected bit could get set on an inotify object.
Since these bits are also interpreted by the fsnotify/dnotify code, there
is the potential for an object to be mishandled inside the kernel.  For
instance, can we be sure that setting the dnotify flag FS_DN_RENAME on an
inotify watch is harmless?

Add the actual check which was intended.  Retain the existing inotify bits
are being added to the watch.  Plus, this is existing behavior which would
be nice to preserve.

I did a quick sniff test that inotify functions and that my

inotify: hide internal kernel bits from fdinfo

There was a report that my patch:

    inotify: actually check for invalid bits in sys_inotify_add_watch()

broke CRIU.

The reason is that CRIU looks up raw flags in /proc/$pid/fdinfo/* to
figure out how to rebuild inotify watches and then passes those flags
directly back in to the inotify API.  One of those flags
(FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD) is set in mark->mask, but is not part of the inotify
API.  It is used inside the kernel to _implement_ inotify but it is not
and has never been part of the API.

My patch above ensured that we only allow bits which are part of the API
(IN_ALL_EVENTS).  This broke CRIU.

FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD is really internal to the kernel.  It is set _anyway_ on
all inotify marks.  So, CRIU was really just trying to set a bit that was
already set.

This patch hides that bit from fdinfo.  CRIU will not see the bit, not try
to set it, and should work as before.  We should not have been exposing
this bit in the first place, so this is a good patch independent of the
CRIU problem.

 "First batch of KVM changes for 4.4.

  s390:
     A bunch of fixes and optimizations for interrupt and time handling.

  PPC:
     Mostly bug fixes.

  ARM:
     No big features, but many small fixes and prerequisites including:

      - a number of fixes for the arch-timer

      - introducing proper level-triggered semantics for the arch-timers

      - a series of patches to synchronously halt a guest (prerequisite
        for IRQ forwarding)

      - some tracepoint improvements

      - a tweak for the EL2 panic handlers

      - some more VGIC cleanups getting rid of redundant state

  x86:
     Quite a few changes:

      - support for VT-d posted interrupts (i.e. PCI devices can inject
        interrupts directly into vCPUs).  This introduces a new
        component (in virt/lib/) that connects VFIO and KVM together.
        The same infrastructure will be used for ARM interrupt
        forwarding as well.

      - more Hyper-V features, though the main one Hyper-V synthetic
        interrupt controller will have to wait for 4.5.  These will let
        KVM expose Hyper-V devices.

      - nested virtualization now supports VPID (same as PCID but for
        vCPUs) which makes it quite a bit faster

      - for future hardware that supports NVDIMM, there is support for
        clflushopt, clwb, pcommit

      - support for "split irqchip", i.e.  LAPIC in kernel +
        IOAPIC/PIC/PIT in userspace, which reduces the attack surface of
        the hypervisor

      - obligatory smattering of SMM fixes

      - on the guest side, stable scheduler clock support was rewritten
        to not require help from the hypervisor"

Commit 53147b6cabee5e8d1997b5682fcc0c3b72ddf9c2 ("toshiba_acpi: Fix
hotkeys registration on some toshiba models") fixed an issue on some

the initialization of the hotkey_event_type variable, and thus, it can
lead to potential unwanted effects as the variable is being checked.

This patch initializes such variable to avoid such unwanted effects.
