Ulrich Drepper e30d539b3f tools/vm/page-types.c: cleanups
Compiling page-type.c with a recent compiler produces many warnings,
mostly related to signed/unsigned comparisons.  This patch cleans up most
of them.

One remaining warning is about an unused parameter.  The <compiler.h> file
doesn't define a __unused macro (or the like) yet.  This can be addressed
later.

Ulrich Drepper 9295b7a07c kbuild: install kernel-page-flags.h
Programs using /proc/kpageflags need to know about the various flags.  The
<linux/kernel-page-flags.h> provides them and the comments in the file
indicate that it is supposed to be used by user-level code.  But the file
is not installed.

Install the headers and mark the unstable flags as out-of-bounds.  The
page-type tool is also adjusted to not duplicate the definitions

Konstantin Khlebnikov 02602a18c3 bug: completely remove code generated by disabled VM_BUG_ON()
Even if CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=n gcc genereates code for some VM_BUG_ON()

for example VM_BUG_ON(!PageCompound(page) || !PageHead(page)); in
do_huge_pmd_wp_page() generates 114 bytes of code.

But they mostly disappears when I split this VM_BUG_ON into two:

  -VM_BUG_ON(!PageCompound(page) || !PageHead(page));
  +VM_BUG_ON(!PageCompound(page));
  +VM_BUG_ON(!PageHead(page));

weird... but anyway after this patch code disappears completely.

Konstantin Khlebnikov baf05aa927 bug: introduce BUILD_BUG_ON_INVALID() macro
Sometimes we want to check some expressions correctness at compile time.
"(void)(e);" or "if (e);" can be dangerous if the expression has
side-effects, and gcc sometimes generates a lot of code, even if the
expression has no effect.

This patch introduces macro BUILD_BUG_ON_INVALID() for such checks, it
forces a compilation error if expression is invalid without any extra
code.

[Cast to "long" required because sizeof does not work for bit-fields.]

Johannes Weiner c3ac9a8ade mm: memcg: count pte references from every member of the reclaimed hierarchy
The rmap walker checking page table references has historically ignored
references from VMAs that were not part of the memcg that was being
reclaimed during memcg hard limit reclaim.

When transitioning global reclaim to memcg hierarchy reclaim, I missed
that bit and now references from outside a memcg are ignored even during
global reclaim.

Reverting back to traditional behaviour - count all references during
global reclaim and only mind references of the memcg being reclaimed
during limit reclaim would be one option.

However, the more generic idea is to ignore references exactly then when
they are outside the hierarchy that is currently under reclaim; because
only then will their reclamation be of any use to help the pressure
situation.  It makes no sense to ignore references from a sibling memcg
and then evict a page that will be immediately refaulted by that sibling
which contributes to the same usage of the common ancestor under
reclaim.

The solution: make the rmap walker ignore references from VMAs that are
not part of the hierarchy that is being reclaimed.

Flat limit reclaim will stay the same, hierarchical limit reclaim will
mind the references only to pages that the hierarchy owns.  Global
reclaim, since it reclaims from all memcgs, will be fixed to regard all
references.

Larry Woodman 4a5b18cc19 mm: do_migrate_pages() calls migrate_to_node() even if task is already on a correct node
While running an application that moves tasks from one cpuset to another
I noticed that it takes much longer and moves many more pages than
expected.

The reason for this is do_migrate_pages() does its best to preserve the
relative node differential from the first node of the cpuset because the
application may have been written with that in mind.  If memory was
interleaved on the nodes of the source cpuset by an application
do_migrate_pages() will try its best to maintain that interleaving on
the nodes of the destination cpuset.  This means copying the memory from
all source nodes to the destination nodes even if the source and
destination nodes overlap.

This is a problem for userspace NUMA placement tools.  The amount of
time spent doing extra memory moves cancels out some of the NUMA
performance improvements.  Furthermore, if the number of source and
destination nodes are to maintain the previous interleaving layout
anyway.

This patch changes do_migrate_pages() to only preserve the relative
layout inside the program if the number of NUMA nodes in the source and
destination mask are the same.  If the number is different, we do a much
more efficient migration by not touching memory that is in an allowed
node.

This preserves the old behaviour for programs that want it, while
allowing a userspace NUMA placement tool to use the new, faster
migration.  This improves performance in our tests by up to a factor of
7.

Without this change migrating tasks from a cpuset containing nodes 0-7
to a cpuset containing nodes 3-4, we migrate from ALL the nodes even if
they are in the both the source and destination nodesets:

   Migrating 7 to 4
   Migrating 6 to 3
   Migrating 5 to 4
   Migrating 4 to 3
   Migrating 1 to 4
   Migrating 3 to 4
   Migrating 0 to 3
   Migrating 2 to 3

With this change we only migrate from nodes that are not in the
destination nodesets:

   Migrating 7 to 4
   Migrating 6 to 3
   Migrating 5 to 4
   Migrating 2 to 3
   Migrating 1 to 4
   Migrating 0 to 3

Yet if we move from a cpuset containing nodes 2,3,4 to a cpuset
containing 3,4,5 we still do move everything so that we preserve the
desired NUMA offsets:

   Migrating 4 to 5
   Migrating 3 to 4
   Migrating 2 to 3

As far as performance is concerned this simple patch improves the time
it takes to move 14, 20 and 26 large tasks from a cpuset containing
nodes 0-7 to a cpuset containing nodes 1 & 3 by up to a factor of 7.
Here are the timings with and without the patch:

David Rientjes 1f1d06c34f thp, memcg: split hugepage for memcg oom on cow
On COW, a new hugepage is allocated and charged to the memcg.  If the
system is oom or the charge to the memcg fails, however, the fault
handler will return VM_FAULT_OOM which results in an oom kill.

Instead, it's possible to fallback to splitting the hugepage so that the
COW results only in an order-0 page being allocated and charged to the
memcg which has a higher liklihood to succeed.  This is expensive
because the hugepage must be split in the page fault handler, but it is
much better than unnecessarily oom killing a process.

Siddhesh Poyarekar 7edc8b0ac1 mm/fork: fix overflow in vma length when copying mmap on clone
The vma length in dup_mmap is calculated and stored in a unsigned int,
which is insufficient and hence overflows for very large maps (beyond
16TB). The following program demonstrates this:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>

#define GIG 1024 * 1024 * 1024L
#define EXTENT 16393

int main(void)
{
        int i, r;
        void *m;
        char buf[1024];

        for (i = 0; i < EXTENT; i++) {
                m = mmap(NULL, (size_t) 1 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024L,
                         PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, 0, 0);

                if (m == (void *)-1)
                        printf("MMAP Failed: %d\n", m);
                else
                        printf("%d : MMAP returned %p\n", i, m);

                r = fork();

                if (r == 0) {
                        printf("%d: successed\n", i);
                        return 0;
                } else if (r < 0)
                        printf("FORK Failed: %d\n", r);
                else if (r > 0)
                        wait(NULL);
        }
        return 0;
}

Increase the storage size of the result to unsigned long, which is
sufficient for storing the difference between addresses.

Rajman Mekaco 841e31e5cc mm/mmap.c: find_vma(): remove unnecessary if(mm) check
The "if (mm)" check is not required in find_vma, as the kernel code
calls find_vma only when it is absolutely sure that the mm_struct arg to
it is non-NULL.

Remove the if(mm) check and adding the a WARN_ONCE(!mm) for now.  This
will serve the purpose of mandating that the execution
context(user-mode/kernel-mode) be known before find_vma is called.  Also
fixed 2 checkpatch.pl errors in the declaration of the rb_node and
vma_tmp local variables.

I was browsing through the internet and read a discussion at
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/27/342 which discusses removal of the
validation check within find_vma.  Since no-one responded, I decided to
send this patch with Andrew's suggestions.

could result from the multiplication of number of elements and size and
it is also a bit nicer to read.

Ryota Ozaki f623881872 mm: fix off-by-one bug in print_nodes_state()
/sys/devices/system/node/{online,possible} outputs a garbage byte
because print_nodes_state() returns content size + 1.  To fix the bug,
the patch changes the use of cpuset_sprintf_cpulist to follow the use at
other places, which is clearer and safer.

This bug was introduced in v2.6.24 (commit bde631a51876: "mm: add node

Mel Gorman 41ac1999c3 mm: vmscan: do not stall on writeback during memory compaction
This patch stops reclaim/compaction entering sync reclaim as this was
only intended for lumpy reclaim and an oversight.  Page migration has
its own logic for stalling on writeback pages if necessary and memory
compaction is already using it.

Waiting on page writeback is bad for a number of reasons but the primary
one is that waiting on writeback to a slow device like USB can take a
considerable length of time.  Page reclaim instead uses
wait_iff_congested() to throttle if too many dirty pages are being
scanned.

Mel Gorman c53919adc0 mm: vmscan: remove lumpy reclaim
This series removes lumpy reclaim and some stalling logic that was
unintentionally being used by memory compaction.  The end result is that
stalling on dirty pages during page reclaim now depends on
wait_iff_congested().

Four kernels were compared

  3.3.0     vanilla
  3.4.0-rc2 vanilla
  3.4.0-rc2 lumpyremove-v2 is patch one from this series
  3.4.0-rc2 nosync-v2r3 is the full series

Removing lumpy reclaim saves almost 900 bytes of text whereas the full
series removes 1200 bytes.

     text     data      bss       dec     hex  filename
  6740375  1927944  2260992  10929311  a6c49f  vmlinux-3.4.0-rc2-vanilla
  6739479  1927944  2260992  10928415  a6c11f  vmlinux-3.4.0-rc2-lumpyremove-v2
  6739159  1927944  2260992  10928095  a6bfdf  vmlinux-3.4.0-rc2-nosync-v2

There are behaviour changes in the series and so tests were run with
monitoring of ftrace events.  This disrupts results so the performance
results are distorted but the new behaviour should be clearer.

fs-mark running in a threaded configuration showed little of interest as
it did not push reclaim aggressively

It looks like here that the full series regresses performance but as
ftrace showed no usage of wait_iff_congested() or sync reclaim I am
assuming it's a disruption due to monitoring.  Other data such as memory
usage, page IO, swap IO all looked similar.

Running a benchmark with a plain DD showed nothing very interesting.
The full series stalled in wait_iff_congested() slightly less but stall
times on vanilla kernels were marginal.

Running a benchmark that hammered on file-backed mappings showed stalls
due to congestion but not in sync writebacks

Reclaim statistics are not radically changed.  The stall times in kswapd
are massive but it is clear that it is due to calls to congestion_wait()
and that is almost certainly the call in balance_pgdat().  Otherwise
stalls due to dirty pages are non-existant.

I ran a benchmark that stressed high-order allocation.  This is very
artifical load but was used in the past to evaluate lumpy reclaim and
compaction.  Generally I look at allocation success rates and latency
figures.

Success rates are completely hosed for 3.4-rc2 which is almost certainly
due to commit fe2c2a1066 ("vmscan: reclaim at order 0 when compaction
is enabled").  I expected this would happen for kswapd and impair
allocation success rates (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/25/166) but I did
not anticipate this much a difference: 80% less scanning, 37% less
reclaim by kswapd

In comparison, reclaim/compaction is not aggressive and gives up easily
which is the intended behaviour.  hugetlbfs uses __GFP_REPEAT and would
be much more aggressive about reclaim/compaction than THP allocations
are.  The stress test above is allocating like neither THP or hugetlbfs
but is much closer to THP.

Mainline is now impaired in terms of high order allocation under heavy
load although I do not know to what degree as I did not test with
__GFP_REPEAT.  Keep this in mind for bugs related to hugepage pool
resizing, THP allocation and high order atomic allocation failures from
network devices.

In terms of congestion throttling, I see the following for this test

The "conditional waited" times are the most interesting as this is
directly impacted by the number of dirty pages encountered during scan.
As lumpy reclaim is no longer scanning contiguous ranges, it is finding
fewer dirty pages.  This brings wait times from about 5 seconds to 0.
kswapd itself is still calling congestion_wait() so it'll still stall but
it's a lot less.

In terms of the type of IO we were doing, I see this

In 3.2, kswapd was doing a bunch of async writes of pages but
reclaim/compaction was never reaching a point where it was doing sync
IO.  This does not guarantee that reclaim/compaction was not calling
wait_on_page_writeback() but I would consider it unlikely.  It indicates
that merging patches 2 and 3 to stop reclaim/compaction calling
wait_on_page_writeback() should be safe.

This patch:

Lumpy reclaim had a purpose but in the mind of some, it was to kick the
system so hard it trashed.  For others the purpose was to complicate
vmscan.c.  Over time it was giving softer shoes and a nicer attitude but
memory compaction needs to step up and replace it so this patch sends
lumpy reclaim to the farm.

The tracepoint format changes for isolating LRU pages with this patch
applied.  Furthermore reclaim/compaction can no longer queue dirty pages
in pageout() if the underlying BDI is congested.  Lumpy reclaim used
this logic and reclaim/compaction was using it in error.

Rik van Riel e709ffd616 mm: remove swap token code
The swap token code no longer fits in with the current VM model.  It
does not play well with cgroups or the better NUMA placement code in
development, since we have only one swap token globally.

It also has the potential to mess with scalability of the system, by
increasing the number of non-reclaimable pages on the active and
inactive anon LRU lists.

Last but not least, the swap token code has been broken for a year
without complaints, as reported by Konstantin Khlebnikov.  This suggests
we no longer have much use for it.

The days of sub-1G memory systems with heavy use of swap are over.  If
we ever need thrashing reducing code in the future, we will have to
implement something that does scale.

David Rientjes edad9d2c33 mm, thp: allow fallback when pte_alloc_one() fails for huge pmd
The transparent hugepages feature is careful to not invoke the oom
killer when a hugepage cannot be allocated.

pte_alloc_one() failing in __do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page(), however,
currently results in VM_FAULT_OOM which invokes the pagefault oom killer
to kill a memory-hogging task.

This is unnecessary since it's possible to drop the reference to the
hugepage and fallback to allocating a small page.

A missing validation of the value returned by find_vma() could cause a

This is triggerable from usermode by a simple user by trying to read a

Paul Gortmaker af2e840971 pagemap.h: fix warning about possibly used before init var
Commit f56f821feb ("mm: extend prefault helpers to fault in more than
PAGE_SIZE") added in the new functions: fault_in_multipages_writeable()
and fault_in_multipages_readable().

However, we currently see:

  include/linux/pagemap.h:492: warning: 'ret' may be used uninitialized in this function
  include/linux/pagemap.h:492: note: 'ret' was declared here

Unlike a lot of gcc nags, this one appears somewhat legit.  i.e.  passing
in an invalid negative value of "size" does make it look like all the
conditionals in there would be bypassed and the uninitialized value would
be returned.

Linus Torvalds 53f2c4a8fd NFS client updates for Linux 3.5
New features include:
 - Rewrite the O_DIRECT code so that it can share the same coalescing and
   pNFS functionality as the page cache code.
 - Allow the server to provide hints as to when we should use pNFS, and
   when it is more efficient to read and write through the metadata
   server.
 - NFS cache consistency updates:
   - Use the ctime to emulate a change attribute for NFSv2/v3 so that
     all NFS versions can share the same cache management code.
   - New cache management code will only look at the change attribute
     and size attribute when deciding whether or not our cached data
     is still valid or not.
   - Don't request NFSv4 post-op attributes on writes in cases such as
     O_DIRECT, where we don't care about data cache consistency, or
     when we have a write delegation, and know that our cache is
     still consistent.
   - Don't request NFSv4 post-op attributes on operations such as
     COMMIT, where there are no expected metadata updates.
   - Don't request NFSv4 directory post-op attributes in cases where
     the operations themselves already return change attribute updates:
     i.e.  operations such as OPEN, CREATE, REMOVE, LINK and RENAME.
 - Speed up 'ls' and friends by using READDIR rather than READDIRPLUS
   if we detect no attempts to lookup filenames.
 - Improve the code sharing between NFSv2/v3 and v4 mounts
 - NFSv4.1 state management efficiency improvements
 - More patches in preparation for NFSv4/v4.1 migration functionality.

Alan Cox d3ca8b64b9 pty: Fix lock inversion
The ptmx_open path takes the tty and devpts locks in the wrong order
because tty_init_dev locks and returns a locked tty.  As far as I can
tell this is actually safe anyway because the tty being returned is new
so nobody can get a reference to lock it at this point.

However we don't even need the devpts lock at this point, it's only held
as a byproduct of the way the locks were pushe down.

Trond Myklebust 359d7d1c97 NFSv4: update_changeattr does not need to set NFS_INO_REVAL_PAGECACHE
We're already invalidating the data cache, and setting the new change
attribute. Since directories don't care about the i_size field, there
is no need to be forcing any extra revalidation of the page cache.

We do keep the NFS_INO_INVALID_ATTR flag, in order to force an
attribute cache revalidation on stat() calls since we do not
update the mtime and ctime fields.

Paul Mackerras 1629372caa powerpc: Use the new generic strncpy_from_user() and strnlen_user()
This is much the same as for SPARC except that we can do the find_zero()
function more efficiently using the count-leading-zeroes instructions.
Tested on 32-bit and 64-bit PowerPC.
