After fixing the GPF in mem_cgroup_lru_del_list(), three times one
machine running a similar load (moving and removing memcgs while
swapping) has oopsed in mem_cgroup_zone_nr_lru_pages(), when retrieving
memcg zone numbers for get_scan_count() for shrink_mem_cgroup_zone():
this is where a struct mem_cgroup is first accessed after being chosen
by mem_cgroup_iter().
Just what protects a struct mem_cgroup from being freed, in between
mem_cgroup_iter()'s css_get_next() and its css_tryget()? css_tryget()
fails once css->refcnt is zero with CSS_REMOVED set in flags, yes: but
what if that memory is freed and reused for something else, which sets
"refcnt" non-zero? Hmm, and scope for an indefinite freeze if refcnt is
left at zero but flags are cleared.
It's tempting to move the css_tryget() into css_get_next(), to make it
really "get" the css, but I don't think that actually solves anything:
the same difficulty in moving from css_id found to stable css remains.
But we already have rcu_read_lock() around the two, so it's easily fixed
if __mem_cgroup_free() just uses kfree_rcu() to free mem_cgroup.
However, a big struct mem_cgroup is allocated with vzalloc() instead of
kzalloc(), and we're not allowed to vfree() at interrupt time: there
doesn't appear to be a general vfree_rcu() to help with this, so roll
our own using schedule_work(). The compiler decently removes
vfree_work() and vfree_rcu() when the config doesn't need them.

it behaves exactly like releases 2.6.35 through 3.2 in this respect.
Horiguchi-san's commit is correct in itself, 1 makes much more sense
than 2 in that check; but it does not go far enough - swapcount
should be considered too - if we really want such a check at all.
We appear to have reached agreement now, and expect that 3.4 will
remove the mapcount check, but had better not make 3.3 different.

Several users of "find_vma_prev()" were not in fact interested in the
previous vma if there was no primary vma to be found either. And in
those cases, we're much better off just using the regular "find_vma()",
and then "prev" can be looked up by just checking vma->vm_prev.
The find_vma_prev() semantics are fairly subtle (see Mikulas' recent
commit 83cd904d27: "mm: fix find_vma_prev"), and the whole "return
prev by reference" means that it generates worse code too.
Thus this "let's avoid using this inconvenient and clearly too subtle
interface when we don't really have to" patch.

Commit 6bd4837de9 ("mm: simplify find_vma_prev()") broke memory
management on PA-RISC.
After application of the patch, programs that allocate big arrays on the
stack crash with segfault, for example, this will crash if compiled
without optimization:
int main()
{
char array[200000];
array[199999] = 0;
return 0;
}
The reason is that PA-RISC has up-growing stack and the stack is usually
the last memory area. In the above example, a page fault happens above
the stack.
Previously, if we passed too high address to find_vma_prev, it returned
NULL and stored the last VMA in *pprev. After "simplify find_vma_prev"
change, it stores NULL in *pprev. Consequently, the stack area is not
found and it is not expanded, as it used to be before the change.
This patch restores the old behavior and makes it return the last VMA in
*pprev if the requested address is higher than address of any other VMA.

Dave Jones reports a few Fedora users hitting the BUG_ON(mm->nr_ptes...)
in exit_mmap() recently.
Quoting Hugh's discovery and explanation of the SMP race condition:
"mm->nr_ptes had unusual locking: down_read mmap_sem plus
page_table_lock when incrementing, down_write mmap_sem (or mm_users
0) when decrementing; whereas THP is careful to increment and
decrement it under page_table_lock.
Now most of those paths in THP also hold mmap_sem for read or write
(with appropriate checks on mm_users), but two do not: when
split_huge_page() is called by hwpoison_user_mappings(), and when
called by add_to_swap().
It's conceivable that the latter case is responsible for the
exit_mmap() BUG_ON mm->nr_ptes that has been reported on Fedora."
The simplest way to fix it without having to alter the locking is to make
split_huge_page() a noop in nr_ptes terms, so by counting the preallocated
pagetables that exists for every mapped hugepage. It was an arbitrary
choice not to count them and either way is not wrong or right, because
they are not used but they're still allocated.

When moving tasks from old memcg (with move_charge_at_immigrate on new
memcg), followed by removal of old memcg, hit General Protection Fault in
mem_cgroup_lru_del_list() (called from release_pages called from
free_pages_and_swap_cache from tlb_flush_mmu from tlb_finish_mmu from
exit_mmap from mmput from exit_mm from do_exit).
Somewhat reproducible, takes a few hours: the old struct mem_cgroup has
been freed and poisoned by SLAB_DEBUG, but mem_cgroup_lru_del_list() is
still trying to update its stats, and take page off lru before freeing.
A task, or a charge, or a page on lru: each secures a memcg against
removal. In this case, the last task has been moved out of the old memcg,
and it is exiting: anonymous pages are uncharged one by one from the
memcg, as they are zapped from its pagetables, so the charge gets down to
0; but the pages themselves are queued in an mmu_gather for freeing.
Most of those pages will be on lru (and force_empty is careful to
lru_add_drain_all, to add pages from pagevec to lru first), but not
necessarily all: perhaps some have been isolated for page reclaim, perhaps
some isolated for other reasons. So, force_empty may find no task, no
charge and no page on lru, and let the removal proceed.
There would still be no problem if these pages were immediately freed; but
typically (and the put_page_testzero protocol demands it) they have to be
added back to lru before they are found freeable, then removed from lru
and freed. We don't see the issue when adding, because the
mem_cgroup_iter() loops keep their own reference to the memcg being
scanned; but when it comes to mem_cgroup_lru_del_list().
I believe this was not an issue in v3.2: there, PageCgroupAcctLRU and
PageCgroupUsed flags were used (like a trick with mirrors) to deflect view
of pc->mem_cgroup to the stable root_mem_cgroup when neither set.
38c5d72f3e ("memcg: simplify LRU handling by new rule") mercifully
removed those convolutions, but left this General Protection Fault.
But it's surprisingly easy to restore the old behaviour: just check
PageCgroupUsed in mem_cgroup_lru_add_list() (which decides on which lruvec
to add), and reset pc to root_mem_cgroup if page is uncharged. A risky
change? just going back to how it worked before; testing, and an audit of
uses of pc->mem_cgroup, show no problem.
And there's a nice bonus: with mem_cgroup_lru_add_list() itself making
sure that an uncharged page goes to root lru, mem_cgroup_reset_owner() no
longer has any purpose, and we can safely revert 4e5f01c2b9 ("memcg:
clear pc->mem_cgroup if necessary").
Calling update_page_reclaim_stat() after add_page_to_lru_list() in swap.c
is not strictly necessary: the lru_lock there, with RCU before memcg
structures are freed, makes mem_cgroup_get_reclaim_stat_from_page safe
without that; but it seems cleaner to rely on one dependency less.

We have forgotten the rules of lock nesting: the irq-safe ones must be
taken inside the non-irq-safe ones, otherwise we are open to deadlock:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(&(&pc->lock)->rlock);
local_irq_disable();
lock(&(&zone->lru_lock)->rlock);
lock(&(&pc->lock)->rlock);
<Interrupt>
lock(&(&zone->lru_lock)->rlock);
To check a different locking issue, I happened to add a spin_lock to
memcg's bit_spin_lock in lock_page_cgroup(), and lockdep very quickly
complained about __mem_cgroup_commit_charge_lrucare() (on CPU1 above).
So delete __mem_cgroup_commit_charge_lrucare(), passing a bool lrucare to
__mem_cgroup_commit_charge() instead, taking zone->lru_lock under
lock_page_cgroup() in the lrucare case.
The original was using spin_lock_irqsave, but we'd be in more trouble if
it were ever called at interrupt time: unconditional _irq is enough. And
ClearPageLRU before del from lru, SetPageLRU before add to lru: no strong
reason, but that is the ordering used consistently elsewhere.

All other callers already hold either ->mmap_sem (exclusive) or
->page_table_lock. And we need it because some page table flushing
instanced do work explicitly with ge tables.
See e.g. arch/powerpc/mm/tlb_hash32.c, flush_tlb_range() and
flush_range() in there. The same goes for uml, with a lot more
extensive playing with page tables.
Almost all callers are actually fine - flush_tlb_range() may have no
need to bother playing with page tables, but it can do so safely; again,
this caller is the sole exception - everything else either has exclusive
->mmap_sem on the mm in question, or mm->page_table_lock is held.

memblock allocator aligns @size to @align to reduce the amount
of fragmentation. Commit:
7bd0b0f0da ("memblock: Reimplement memblock allocation using reverse free area iterator")
Broke it by incorrectly relocating @size aligning to
memblock_find_in_range_node(). As the aligned size is not
propagated back to memblock_alloc_base_nid(), the actually
reserved size isn't aligned.
While this increases memory use for memblock reserved array,
this shouldn't cause any critical failure; however, it seems
that the size aligning was hiding a use-beyond-allocation bug in
sparc64 and losing the aligning causes boot failure.
The underlying problem is currently being debugged but this is a
proper fix in itself, it's already pretty late in -rc cycle for
boot failures and reverting the change for debugging isn't
difficult. Restore the size aligning moving it to
memblock_alloc_base_nid().

There is an issue when memcg unregisters events that were attached to
the same eventfd:
- On the first call mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event() removes all
events attached to a given eventfd, and if there were no events left,
thresholds->primary would become NULL;
- Since there were several events registered, cgroups core will call
mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event() again, but now kernel will oops,
as the function doesn't expect that threshold->primary may be NULL.
That's a good question whether mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event()
should actually remove all events in one go, but nowadays it can't
do any better as cftype->unregister_event callback doesn't pass
any private event-associated cookie. So, let's fix the issue by
simply checking for threshold->primary.

When the number of dentry cache hash table entries gets too high
(2147483648 entries), as happens by default on a 16TB system, use of a
signed integer in the dcache_init() initialization loop prevents the
dentry_hashtable from getting initialized, causing a panic in
__d_lookup(). Fix this in dcache_init() and similar areas.

When isolating pages for migration, migration starts at the start of a
zone while the free scanner starts at the end of the zone. Migration
avoids entering a new zone by never going beyond the free scanned.
Unfortunately, in very rare cases nodes can overlap. When this happens,
migration isolates pages without the LRU lock held, corrupting lists
which will trigger errors in reclaim or during page free such as in the
following oops

The "X" in the taint flag means that external modules were loaded but but
is unrelated to the bug triggering. The real problem was because the PFN
layout looks like this
Zone PFN ranges:
DMA 0x00000010 -> 0x00001000
DMA32 0x00001000 -> 0x00100000
Normal 0x00100000 -> 0x01e80000

0: 0x01a80000 -> 0x01c80000
1: 0x01c80000 -> 0x01e80000
The fix is straight-forward. isolate_migratepages() has to make a
similar check to isolate_freepage to ensure that it never isolates pages
from a zone it does not hold the LRU lock for.
This was discovered in a 3.0-based kernel but it affects 3.1.x, 3.2.x
and current mainline.

When isolating for migration, migration starts at the start of a zone
which is not necessarily pageblock aligned. Further, it stops isolating
when COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX pages are isolated so migrate_pfn is generally
not aligned. This allows isolate_migratepages() to call pfn_to_page() on
an invalid PFN which can result in a crash. This was originally reported
against a 3.0-based kernel with the following trace in a crash dump.

It was also reported by Herbert van den Bergh against 3.1-based kernel
with the following snippet from the console log.
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 01c00008
IP: [<c0522399>] isolate_migratepages+0x119/0x390
*pdpt = 000000002f7ce001 *pde = 0000000000000000
It is expected that it also affects 3.2.x and current mainline.
The problem is that pfn_valid is only called on the first PFN being
checked and that PFN is not necessarily aligned. Lets say we have a case
like this
H = MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES boundary
| = pageblock boundary
m = cc->migrate_pfn
f = cc->free_pfn
o = memory hole
H------|------H------|----m-Hoooooo|ooooooH-f----|------H
The migrate_pfn is just below a memory hole and the free scanner is beyond
the hole. When isolate_migratepages started, it scans from migrate_pfn to
migrate_pfn+pageblock_nr_pages which is now in a memory hole. It checks
pfn_valid() on the first PFN but then scans into the hole where there are
not necessarily valid struct pages.
This patch ensures that isolate_migratepages calls pfn_valid when
necessary.

Herbert Poetzl reported a performance regression since 2.6.39. The test
is a simple dd read, but with big block size. The reason is:
T1: ra (A, A+128k), (A+128k, A+256k)
T2: lock_page for page A, submit the 256k
T3: hit page A+128K, ra (A+256k, A+384). the range isn't submitted
because of plug and there isn't any lock_page till we hit page A+256k
because all pages from A to A+256k is in memory
T4: hit page A+256k, ra (A+384, A+ 512). Because of plug, the range isn't
submitted again.
T5: lock_page A+256k, so (A+256k, A+512k) will be submitted. The task is
waitting for (A+256k, A+512k) finish.
There is no request to disk in T3 and T4, so readahead pipeline breaks.
We really don't need block plug for generic_file_aio_read() for buffered
I/O. The readahead already has plug and has fine grained control when I/O
should be submitted. Deleting plug for buffered I/O fixes the regression.
One side effect is plug makes the request size 256k, the size is 128k
without it. This is because default ra size is 128k and not a reason we
need plug here.
Vivek said:
: We submit some readahead IO to device request queue but because of nested
: plug, queue never gets unplugged. When read logic reaches a page which is
: not in page cache, it waits for page to be read from the disk
: (lock_page_killable()) and that time we flush the plug list.
:
: So effectively read ahead logic is kind of broken in parts because of
: nested plugging. Removing top level plug (generic_file_aio_read()) for
: buffered reads, will allow unplugging queue earlier for readahead.

Fix a race condition that shows in conjunction with xip_file_fault() when
two threads of the same user process fault on the same memory page.
In this case, the race winner will install the page table entry and the
unlucky loser will cause an oops: xip_file_fault calls vm_insert_pfn (via
vm_insert_mixed) which drops out at this check:
retval = -EBUSY;
if (!pte_none(*pte))
goto out_unlock;
The resulting -EBUSY return value will trigger a BUG_ON() in
xip_file_fault.
This fix simply considers the fault as fixed in this case, because the
race winner has successfully installed the pte.

The argument is not used at all, and it's not necessary, because
a specific callback handler of course knows which subsys it
belongs to.
Now only ->pupulate() takes this argument, because the handlers of
this callback always call cgroup_add_file()/cgroup_add_files().
So we reduce a few lines of code, though the shrinking of object size
is minimal.
