9 years agolinux/bitmap.h: improve BITMAP_{LAST,FIRST}_WORD_MASK
Rasmus Villemoes [Wed, 15 Apr 2015 23:17:42 +0000 (16:17 -0700)]
linux/bitmap.h: improve BITMAP_{LAST,FIRST}_WORD_MASK

The macro BITMAP_LAST_WORD_MASK can be implemented without a conditional,
which will generally lead to slightly better generated code (221 bytes
saved for allmodconfig-GCOV_KERNEL, ~2k with GCOV_KERNEL).  As a small
bonus, this also ensures that the nbits parameter is expanded exactly
once.

In BITMAP_FIRST_WORD_MASK, if start is signed gcc is technically allowed
to assume it is positive (or divisible by BITS_PER_LONG), and hence just
do the simple mask.  It doesn't seem to use this, and even on an
architecture like x86 where the shift only depends on the lower 5 or 6
bits, and these bits are not affected by the signedness of the expression,
gcc still generates code to compute the C99 mandated value of start %
BITS_PER_LONG.  So just use a mask explicitly, also for consistency with
BITMAP_LAST_WORD_MASK.

9 years agolib/string_helpers.c: change semantics of string_escape_mem
Rasmus Villemoes [Wed, 15 Apr 2015 23:17:28 +0000 (16:17 -0700)]
lib/string_helpers.c: change semantics of string_escape_mem

The current semantics of string_escape_mem are inadequate for one of its
current users, vsnprintf().  If that is to honour its contract, it must
know how much space would be needed for the entire escaped buffer, and
string_escape_mem provides no way of obtaining that (short of allocating a
large enough buffer (~4 times input string) to let it play with, and
that's definitely a big no-no inside vsnprintf).

So change the semantics for string_escape_mem to be more snprintf-like:
Return the size of the output that would be generated if the destination
buffer was big enough, but of course still only write to the part of dst
it is allowed to, and (contrary to snprintf) don't do '\0'-termination.
It is then up to the caller to detect whether output was truncated and to
append a '\0' if desired.  Also, we must output partial escape sequences,
otherwise a call such as snprintf(buf, 3, "%1pE", "\123") would cause
printf to write a \0 to buf[2] but leaving buf[0] and buf[1] with whatever
they previously contained.

This also fixes a bug in the escaped_string() helper function, which used
to unconditionally pass a length of "end-buf" to string_escape_mem();
since the latter doesn't check osz for being insanely large, it would
happily write to dst.  For example, kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "something and
then %pE", ...); is an easy way to trigger an oops.

In test-string_helpers.c, the -ENOMEM test is replaced with testing for
getting the expected return value even if the buffer is too small.  We
also ensure that nothing is written (by relying on a NULL pointer deref)
if the output size is 0 by passing NULL - this has to work for
kasprintf("%pE") to work.

In net/sunrpc/cache.c, I think qword_add still has the same semantics.
Someone should definitely double-check this.

In fs/proc/array.c, I made the minimum possible change, but longer-term it
should stop poking around in seq_file internals.

lib/string_helpers.c: refactor string_escape_mem

When printf is given the format specifier %pE, it needs a way of obtaining
the total output size that would be generated if the buffer was large
enough, and string_escape_mem doesn't easily provide that.  This is a
refactorization of string_escape_mem in preparation of changing its
external API to provide that information.

The somewhat ugly early returns and subsequent seemingly redundant
conditionals are to make the following patch touch as little as possible
in string_helpers.c while still preserving the current behaviour of never
outputting partial escape sequences.  That behaviour must also change for
%pE to work as one expects from every other printf specifier.

lib/vsprintf.c: fix potential NULL deref in hex_string

The helper hex_string() is broken in two ways.  First, it doesn't
increment buf regardless of whether there is room to print, so callers
such as kasprintf() that try to probe the correct storage to allocate will
get a too small return value.  But even worse, kasprintf() (and likely
anyone else trying to find the size of the result) pass NULL for buf and 0
for size, so we also have end == NULL.  But this means that the end-1 in
hex_string() is (char*)-1, so buf < end-1 is true and we get a NULL
pointer deref.  I double-checked this with a trivial kernel module that
just did a kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "%14ph", "CrashBoomBang").

Nobody seems to be using %ph with kasprintf, but we might as well fix it
before it hits someone.

Iulia Manda [Wed, 15 Apr 2015 23:16:41 +0000 (16:16 -0700)]
kernel: conditionally support non-root users, groups and capabilities

There are a lot of embedded systems that run most or all of their
functionality in init, running as root:root.  For these systems,
supporting multiple users is not necessary.

This patch adds a new symbol, CONFIG_MULTIUSER, that makes support for
non-root users, non-root groups, and capabilities optional.  It is enabled
under CONFIG_EXPERT menu.

When this symbol is not defined, UID and GID are zero in any possible case
and processes always have all capabilities.

The following syscalls are compiled out: setuid, setregid, setgid,
setreuid, setresuid, getresuid, setresgid, getresgid, setgroups,
getgroups, setfsuid, setfsgid, capget, capset.

Also, groups.c is compiled out completely.

In kernel/capability.c, capable function was moved in order to avoid
adding two ifdef blocks.

This change saves about 25 KB on a defconfig build.  The most minimal
kernels have total text sizes in the high hundreds of kB rather than
low MB.  (The 25k goes down a bit with allnoconfig, but not that much.

The kernel was booted in Qemu.  All the common functionalities work.
Adding users/groups is not possible, failing with -ENOSYS.

Bloat-o-meter output:
add/remove: 7/87 grow/shrink: 19/397 up/down: 1675/-26325 (-24650)

zram: remove `num_migrated' device attr

This patch introduces rework to zram stats.  We have per-stat sysfs nodes,
and it makes things a bit hard to use in user space: it doesn't give an
immediate stats 'snapshot', it requires user space to use more syscalls -
open, read, close for every stat file, with appropriate error checks on
every step, etc.

First, zram now accounts block layer statistics, available in
/sys/block/zram<id>/stat and /proc/diskstats files.  So some new stats are
available (see Documentation/block/stat.txt), besides, zram's activities
now can be monitored by sysstat's iostat or similar tools.

Example:
cat /sys/block/zram0/stat
248     0    1984    0   251029     0  2008232   5120   0   5116   5116

Second, group currently exported on per-stat basis nodes into two
categories (files):

-- zram<id>/io_stat
accumulates device's IO stats, that are not accounted by block layer,
and contains:
        failed_reads
        failed_writes
        invalid_io
        notify_free

Example:
cat /sys/block/zram0/io_stat
0        0        0   652572

-- zram<id>/mm_stat
accumulates zram mm stats and contains:
        orig_data_size
        compr_data_size
        mem_used_total
        mem_limit
        mem_used_max
        zero_pages
        num_migrated

Example:
cat /sys/block/zram0/mm_stat
434634752 270288572 279158784        0 579895296    15060        0

per-stat sysfs nodes are now considered to be deprecated and we plan to
remove them (and clean up some of the existing stat code) in two years (as
of now, there is no warning printed to syslog about deprecated stats being
used).  User space is advised to use the above mentioned 3 files.

This patch (of 7):

If zram stores 4096 bytes to zsmalloc(ie, bad compression), zsmalloc needs
4104B-class to add handle.

However, 4104B-class has 1-pages_per_zspage so wasted size by internal

So this patch records the handle in page->private on such huge object(ie,

9 years agozsmalloc: decouple handle and object
Minchan Kim [Wed, 15 Apr 2015 23:15:23 +0000 (16:15 -0700)]
zsmalloc: decouple handle and object

Recently, we started to use zram heavily and some of issues
popped.

1) external fragmentation

I got a report from Juneho Choi that fork failed although there are plenty
of free pages in the system.  His investigation revealed zram is one of
the culprit to make heavy fragmentation so there was no more contiguous
16K page for pgd to fork in the ARM.

2) non-movable pages

Other problem of zram now is that inherently, user want to use zram as
swap in small memory system so they use zRAM with CMA to use memory
efficiently.  However, unfortunately, it doesn't work well because zRAM
cannot use CMA's movable pages unless it doesn't support compaction.  I
got several reports about that OOM happened with zram although there are
lots of swap space and free space in CMA area.

3) internal fragmentation

zRAM has started support memory limitation feature to limit memory usage
and I sent a patchset(https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/21/148) for VM to be
harmonized with zram-swap to stop anonymous page reclaim if zram consumed
memory up to the limit although there are free space on the swap.  One
problem for that direction is zram has no way to know any hole in memory
space zsmalloc allocated by internal fragmentation so zram would regard
swap is full although there are free space in zsmalloc.  For solving the
issue, zram want to trigger compaction of zsmalloc before it decides full
or not.

This patchset is first step to support above issues.  For that, it adds
indirect layer between handle and object location and supports manual
compaction to solve 3th problem first of all.

After this patchset got merged, next step is to make VM aware of zsmalloc
compaction so that generic compaction will move zsmalloced-pages
automatically in runtime.

In my imaginary experiment(ie, high compress ratio data with heavy swap
in/out on 8G zram-swap), data is as follows,

Before =
zram allocated object :      60212066 bytes
zram total used:     140103680 bytes
ratio:         42.98 percent
MemFree:          840192 kB

Compaction

After =
frag ratio after compaction
zram allocated object :      60212066 bytes
zram total used:      76185600 bytes
ratio:         79.03 percent
MemFree:          901932 kB

Juneho reported below in his real platform with small aging.
So, I think the benefit would be bigger in real aging system
for a long time.

- frag_ratio increased 3% (ie, higher is better)
- memfree increased about 6MB
- In buddy info, Normal 2^3: 4, 2^2: 1: 2^1 increased, Highmem: 2^1 21 increased

frag ratio after swap fragment
used :        156677 kbytes
total:        166092 kbytes
frag_ratio :  94
meminfo before compaction
MemFree:           83724 kB
Node 0, zone   Normal  13642   1364     57     10     61     17      9      5      4      0      0
Node 0, zone  HighMem    425     29      1      0      0      0      0      0      0      0      0

num_migrated :  23630
compaction done

frag ratio after compaction
used :        156673 kbytes
total:        160564 kbytes
frag_ratio :  97
meminfo after compaction
MemFree:           89060 kB
Node 0, zone   Normal  14076   1544     67     14     61     17      9      5      4      0      0
Node 0, zone  HighMem    863     50      1      0      0      0      0      0      0      0      0

This patchset adds more logics(about 480 lines) in zsmalloc but when I
tested heavy swapin/out program, the regression for swapin/out speed is
marginal because most of overheads were caused by compress/decompress and
other MM reclaim stuff.

This patch (of 7):

Currently, handle of zsmalloc encodes object's location directly so it
makes support of migration hard.

This patch decouples handle and object via adding indirect layer.  For
that, it allocates handle dynamically and returns it to user.  The handle
is the address allocated by slab allocation so it's unique and we could
keep object's location in the memory space allocated for handle.

With it, we can change object's position without changing handle itself.

get notified when access is a write to a read-only PFN.

This can happen if we mmap() a file then first mmap-read from it to
page-in a read-only PFN, than we mmap-write to the same page.

We need this functionality to fix a DAX bug, where in the scenario above
we fail to set ctime/mtime though we modified the file.  An xfstest is
attached to this patchset that shows the failure and the fix.  (A DAX
patch will follow)

This functionality is extra important for us, because upon dirtying of a
pmem page we also want to RDMA the page to a remote cluster node.

We define a new pfn_mkwrite and do not reuse page_mkwrite because
  1 - The name ;-)
  2 - But mainly because it would take a very long and tedious
      audit of all page_mkwrite functions of VM_MIXEDMAP/VM_PFNMAP
      users. To make sure they do not now CRASH. For example current
      DAX code (which this is for) would crash.
      If we would want to reuse page_mkwrite, We will need to first
      patch all users, so to not-crash-on-no-page. Then enable this
      patch. But even if I did that I would not sleep so well at night.
      Adding a new vector is the safest thing to do, and is not that
      expensive. an extra pointer at a static function vector per driver.
      Also the new vector is better for performance, because else we
      Will call all current Kernel vectors, so to:
        check-ha-no-page-do-nothing and return.

No need to call it from do_shared_fault because do_wp_page is called to

before isolation, so let's do similarly for hugetlb with a new
paeg_huge_active().

set/clear_page_huge_active() should be called within hugetlb_lock.  But

its memory contents is the same as when it was added to the reserved pool.

Because of this, elements lack any free poisoning to detect use-after-free

This patch adds free poisoning for elements backed by the slab allocator.
This is possible because the mempool layer knows the object size of each

When an element is added to the reserved pool, it is poisoned with
POISON_FREE.  When it is removed from the reserved pool, the contents are
checked for POISON_FREE.  If there is a mismatch, a warning is emitted to
the kernel log.

This is only effective for configs with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB or

For this reason, we should disallow creating mempools based on slab caches
that have object constructors.  Callers of mempool_alloc() will be
responsible for properly initializing the returned element.

Then, it doesn't matter if the element came from the slab cache or the
mempool reserved pool.

The only occurrence of a mempool being based on a slab cache with an
object constructor in the tree is in fs/jfs/jfs_metapage.c.  Remove it and
properly initialize the element in alloc_metapage().

At the same time, META_free is never used, so remove it as well.

mremap should return -ENOMEM when __vm_enough_memory fail

Recently I straced bash behavior in this dd zero pipe to read test, in
part of testing under vm.overcommit_memory=2 (OVERCOMMIT_NEVER mode):

    # dd if=/dev/zero | read x

The bash sub shell is calling mremap to reallocate more and more memory
untill it finally failed -ENOMEM (I expect), or to be killed by system OOM
killer (which should not happen under OVERCOMMIT_NEVER mode); But the
mremap system call actually failed of -EFAULT, which is a surprise to me,
I think it's supposed to be -ENOMEM?  then I wrote this piece of C code
testing confirmed it: https://gist.github.com/crquan/326bde37e1ddda8effe5

    mremap failed Bad address (14).

The -EFAULT comes from the branch of security_vm_enough_memory_mm failure,
underlyingly it calls __vm_enough_memory which returns only 0 for success
or -ENOMEM; So why vma_to_resize needs to return -EFAULT in this case?
this sounds like a mistake to me.

Some more digging into git history:

1) Before commit 119f657c7 ("RLIMIT_AS checking fix") in May 1 2005
   (pre 2.6.12 days) it was returning -ENOMEM for this failure;

2) but commit 119f657c7 ("untangling do_mremap(), part 1") changed it
   accidentally, to what ever is preserved in local ret, which happened to
   be -EFAULT, in a previous assignment;

3) then in commit 54f5de709 code refactoring, it's explicitly returning
   -EFAULT, should be wrong.

9 years agomm/vmalloc: get rid of dirty bitmap inside vmap_block structure
Roman Pen [Wed, 15 Apr 2015 23:13:55 +0000 (16:13 -0700)]
mm/vmalloc: get rid of dirty bitmap inside vmap_block structure

In original implementation of vm_map_ram made by Nick Piggin there were
two bitmaps: alloc_map and dirty_map.  None of them were used as supposed
to be: finding a suitable free hole for next allocation in block.
vm_map_ram allocates space sequentially in block and on free call marks
pages as dirty, so freed space can't be reused anymore.

Actually it would be very interesting to know the real meaning of those
bitmaps, maybe implementation was incomplete, etc.

But long time ago Zhang Yanfei removed alloc_map by these two commits:

  mm/vmalloc.c: remove dead code in vb_alloc
     3fcd76e8028e0be37b02a2002b4f56755daeda06
  mm/vmalloc.c: remove alloc_map from vmap_block
     b8e748b6c32999f221ea4786557b8e7e6c4e4e7a

In this patch I replaced dirty_map with two range variables: dirty min and
max.  These variables store minimum and maximum position of dirty space in
a block, since we need only to know the dirty range, not exact position of
dirty pages.

Why it was made?  Several reasons: at first glance it seems that
vm_map_ram allocator concerns about fragmentation thus it uses bitmaps for
finding free hole, but it is not true.  To avoid complexity seems it is
better to use something simple, like min or max range values.  Secondly,
code also becomes simpler, without iteration over bitmap, just comparing
values in min and max macros.  Thirdly, bitmap occupies up to 1024 bits
(4MB is a max size of a block).  Here I replaced the whole bitmap with two
longs.

Finally vm_unmap_aliases should be slightly faster and the whole
vmap_block structure occupies less memory.

mm/vmalloc: occupy newly allocated vmap block just after allocation

Previous implementation allocates new vmap block and repeats search of a
free block from the very beginning, iterating over the CPU free list.

Why it can be better??

1. Allocation can happen on one CPU, but search can be done on another CPU.
   In worst case we preallocate amount of vmap blocks which is equal to
   CPU number on the system.

2. In previous patch I added newly allocated block to the tail of free list
   to avoid soon exhaustion of virtual space and give a chance to occupy
   blocks which were allocated long time ago.  Thus to find newly allocated
   block all the search sequence should be repeated, seems it is not efficient.

In this patch newly allocated block is occupied right away, address of
virtual space is returned to the caller, so there is no any need to repeat
the search sequence, allocation job is done.

9 years agomm/vmalloc: fix possible exhaustion of vmalloc space caused by vm_map_ram allocator
Roman Pen [Wed, 15 Apr 2015 23:13:48 +0000 (16:13 -0700)]
mm/vmalloc: fix possible exhaustion of vmalloc space caused by vm_map_ram allocator

Recently I came across high fragmentation of vm_map_ram allocator:
vmap_block has free space, but still new blocks continue to appear.
Further investigation showed that certain mapping/unmapping sequences
can exhaust vmalloc space.  On small 32bit systems that's not a big
problem, cause purging will be called soon on a first allocation failure
(alloc_vmap_area), but on 64bit machines, e.g.  x86_64 has 45 bits of
vmalloc space, that can be a disaster.

1) I came up with a simple allocation sequence, which exhausts virtual
   space very quickly:

  while (iters) {

                /* Map/unmap big chunk */
                vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 16, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 16);

                /* Map/unmap small chunks.
                 *
                 * -1 for hole, which should be left at the end of each block
                 * to keep it partially used, with some free space available */
                for (i = 0; i < (VMAP_BBMAP_BITS - 16) / 8 - 1; i++) {
                        vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 8, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                        vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 8);
                }
  }

The idea behind is simple:

 1. We have to map a big chunk, e.g. 16 pages.

 2. Then we have to occupy the remaining space with smaller chunks, i.e.
    8 pages. At the end small hole should remain to keep block in free list,
    but do not let big chunk to occupy remaining space.

 3. Goto 1 - allocation request of 16 pages can't be completed (only 8 slots
    are left free in the block in the #2 step), new block will be allocated,
    all further requests will lay into newly allocated block.

To have some measurement numbers for all further tests I setup ftrace and
enabled 4 basic calls in a function profile:

        echo vm_map_ram              > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter;
        echo alloc_vmap_area        >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter;
        echo vm_unmap_ram           >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter;
        echo free_vmap_block        >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter;

So for this scenario I got these results:

  free_vmap_block                        992    654.157 us      0.659 us        1.273 us

SUMMARY:

The most interesting numbers in those tables are numbers of block
allocations and deallocations: alloc_vmap_area and free_vmap_block
calls, which show that before the change blocks were not freed, and
virtual space and physical memory (vmap_block structure allocations,
etc) were consumed.

Average time which were spent in vm_map_ram/vm_unmap_ram became slightly
better.  That can be explained with a reasonable amount of blocks in a
free list, which we need to iterate to find a suitable free block.

2) Another scenario is a random allocation:

  while (iters) {

                /* Randomly take number from a range [1..32/64] */
                nr = rand(1, VMAP_MAX_ALLOC);
                vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, nr, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, nr);
  }

I chose mersenne twister PRNG to generate persistent random state to
guarantee that both runs have the same random sequence.  For each
vm_map_ram call random number from [1..32/64] was taken to represent
amount of pages which I do map.

I did 10'000 vm_map_ram calls and got these two tables:

  free_vmap_block                        412    574.421 us      1.394 us        15.138 us

SUMMARY:

'BEFORE' table shows, that 420 blocks were allocated and only 37 were
freed.  Remained 383 blocks are still in a free list, consuming virtual
space and physical memory.

'AFTER' table shows, that 414 blocks were allocated and 412 were really
freed.  2 blocks remained in a free list.

So fragmentation was dramatically reduced.  Why? Because when we put
newly allocated block to the head, all further requests will occupy new
block, regardless remained space in other blocks.  In this scenario all
requests come randomly.  Eventually remained free space will be less
than requested size, free list will be iterated and it is possible that
nothing will be found there - finally new block will be created.  So
exhaustion in random scenario happens for the maximum possible
allocation size: 32 pages for 32-bit system and 64 pages for 64-bit
system.

Also average cost of vm_map_ram was reduced from 1.017 us to 0.774 us.
Again this can be explained by iteration through smaller list of free
blocks.

3) Next simple scenario is a sequential allocation, when the allocation
   order is increased for each block.  This scenario forces allocator to
   reach maximum amount of partially free blocks in a free list:

  while (iters) {

                /* Populate free list with blocks with remaining space */
                for (order = 0; order <= ilog2(VMAP_MAX_ALLOC); order++) {
                        nr = VMAP_BBMAP_BITS / (1 << order);

                        /* Leave a hole */
                        nr -= 1;

                        for (i = 0; i < nr; i++) {
                                vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, (1 << order), -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                                vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, (1 << order));
                }

                /* Completely occupy blocks from a free list */
                for (order = 0; order <= ilog2(VMAP_MAX_ALLOC); order++) {
                        vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, (1 << order), -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                        vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, (1 << order));
                }
  }

Fixing this fragmentation problem I also did some improvements in a
allocation logic of a new vmap block: occupy block immediately and get
rid of extra search in a free list.

Also I replaced dirty bitmap with min/max dirty range values to make the
logic simpler and slightly faster, since two longs comparison costs
less, than loop thru bitmap.

This patchset raises several questions:

 Q: Think the problem you comments is already known so that I wrote comments
    about it as "it could consume lots of address space through fragmentation".
    Could you tell me about your situation and reason why it should be avoided?
                                                                     Gioh Kim

 A: Indeed, there was a commit 364376383 which adds explicit comment about
    fragmentation.  But fragmentation which is described in this comment caused
    by mixing of long-lived and short-lived objects, when a whole block is pinned
    in memory because some page slots are still in use.  But here I am talking
    about blocks which are free, nobody uses them, and allocator keeps them alive
    forever, continuously allocating new blocks.

 Q: I think that if you put newly allocated block to the tail of a free
    list, below example would results in enormous performance degradation.

    new block: 1MB (256 pages)

    while (iters--) {
      vm_map_ram(3 or something else not dividable for 256) * 85
      vm_unmap_ram(3) * 85
    }

    On every iteration, it needs newly allocated block and it is put to the
    tail of a free list so finding it consumes large amount of time.
                                                                    Joonsoo Kim

 A: Second patch in current patchset gets rid of extra search in a free list,
    so new block will be immediately occupied..

    Also, the scenario above is impossible, cause vm_map_ram allocates virtual
    range in orders, i.e. 2^n.  I.e. passing 3 to vm_map_ram you will allocate
    4 slots in a block and 256 slots (capacity of a block) of course dividable
    on 4, so block will be completely occupied.

    But there is a worst case which we can achieve: each free block has a hole
    equal to order size.

    The maximum size of allocation is 64 pages for 64-bit system
    (if you try to map more, original alloc_vmap_area will be called).

    So the maximum order is 6.  That means that worst case, before allocator
    makes a decision to allocate a new block, is to iterate 7 blocks:

    HEAD
    1st block - has 1  page slot  free (order 0)
    2nd block - has 2  page slots free (order 1)
    3rd block - has 4  page slots free (order 2)
    4th block - has 8  page slots free (order 3)
    5th block - has 16 page slots free (order 4)
    6th block - has 32 page slots free (order 5)
    7th block - has 64 page slots free (order 6)
    TAIL

    So the worst scenario on 64-bit system is that each CPU queue can have 7
    blocks in a free list.

    This can happen only and only if you allocate blocks increasing the order.
    (as I did in the function written in the comment of the first patch)
    This is weird and rare case, but still it is possible.  Afterwards you will
    get 7 blocks in a list.

    All further requests should be placed in a newly allocated block or some
    free slots should be found in a free list.
    Seems it does not look dramatically awful.

This patch (of 3):

If suitable block can't be found, new block is allocated and put into a
head of a free list, so on next iteration this new block will be found
first.

That's bad, because old blocks in a free list will not get a chance to be
fully used, thus fragmentation will grow.

Let's consider this simple example:

 #1 We have one block in a free list which is partially used, and where only
    one page is free:

    HEAD |xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL
                   ^
                   free space for 1 page, order 0

 #2 New allocation request of order 1 (2 pages) comes, new block is allocated
    since we do not have free space to complete this request. New block is put
    into a head of a free list:

    HEAD |----------|xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL

 #3 Two pages were occupied in a new found block:

    HEAD |xx--------|xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL
          ^
          two pages mapped here

 #4 New allocation request of order 0 (1 page) comes.  Block, which was created
    on #2 step, is located at the beginning of a free list, so it will be found
    first:

  HEAD |xxX-------|xxxxxxxxx-| TAIL
          ^                 ^
          page mapped here, but better to use this hole

It is obvious, that it is better to complete request of #4 step using the
old block, where free space is left, because in other case fragmentation
will be highly increased.

But fragmentation is not only the case.  The worst thing is that I can
easily create scenario, when the whole vmalloc space is exhausted by
blocks, which are not used, but already dirty and have several free pages.

Let's consider this function which execution should be pinned to one CPU:

static void exhaust_virtual_space(struct page *pages[16], int iters)
{
        /* Firstly we have to map a big chunk, e.g. 16 pages.
         * Then we have to occupy the remaining space with smaller
         * chunks, i.e. 8 pages. At the end small hole should remain.
         * So at the end of our allocation sequence block looks like
         * this:
         *                XX  big chunk
         * |XXxxxxxxx-|    x  small chunk
         *                 -  hole, which is enough for a small chunk,
         *                    but is not enough for a big chunk
         */
        while (iters--) {
                int i;
                void *vaddr;

                /* Map/unmap big chunk */
                vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 16, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 16);

                /* Map/unmap small chunks.
                 *
                 * -1 for hole, which should be left at the end of each block
                 * to keep it partially used, with some free space available */
                for (i = 0; i < (VMAP_BBMAP_BITS - 16) / 8 - 1; i++) {
                        vaddr = vm_map_ram(pages, 8, -1, PAGE_KERNEL);
                        vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, 8);
                }
        }
}

On every iteration new block (1MB of vm area in my case) will be
allocated and then will be occupied, without attempt to resolve small
allocation request using previously allocated blocks in a free list.

In case of random allocation (size should be randomly taken from the
range [1..64] in 64-bit case or [1..32] in 32-bit case) situation is the
same: new blocks continue to appear if maximum possible allocation size
(32 or 64) passed to the allocator, because all remaining blocks in a
free list do not have enough free space to complete this allocation
request.

In summary if new blocks are put into the head of a free list eventually
virtual space will be exhausted.

In current patch I simply put newly allocated block to the tail of a
free list, thus reduce fragmentation, giving a chance to resolve
allocation request using older blocks with possible holes left.

9 years agohugetlbfs: add minimum size tracking fields to subpool structure

hugetlbfs: add minimum size tracking fields to subpool structure

hugetlbfs allocates huge pages from the global pool as needed.  Even if
the global pool contains a sufficient number pages for the filesystem size
at mount time, those global pages could be grabbed for some other use.  As
a result, filesystem huge page allocations may fail due to lack of pages.

Applications such as a database want to use huge pages for performance
reasons.  hugetlbfs filesystem semantics with ownership and modes work
well to manage access to a pool of huge pages.  However, the application
would like some reasonable assurance that allocations will not fail due to
a lack of huge pages.  At application startup time, the application would
like to configure itself to use a specific number of huge pages.  Before
starting, the application can check to make sure that enough huge pages
exist in the system global pools.  However, there are no guarantees that
those pages will be available when needed by the application.  What the
application wants is exclusive use of a subset of huge pages.

Add a new hugetlbfs mount option 'min_size=<value>' to indicate that the
specified number of pages will be available for use by the filesystem.  At
mount time, this number of huge pages will be reserved for exclusive use
of the filesystem.  If there is not a sufficient number of free pages, the
mount will fail.  As pages are allocated to and freeed from the
filesystem, the number of reserved pages is adjusted so that the specified
minimum is maintained.

This patch (of 4):

Add a field to the subpool structure to indicate the minimimum number of
huge pages to always be used by this subpool.  This minimum count includes
allocated pages as well as reserved pages.  If the minimum number of pages
for the subpool have not been allocated, pages are reserved up to this
minimum.  An additional field (rsv_hpages) is used to track the number of
pages reserved to meet this minimum size.  The hstate pointer in the
subpool is convenient to have when reserving and unreserving the pages.

mm, memcg: sync allocation and memcg charge gfp flags for THP

memcg currently uses hardcoded GFP_TRANSHUGE gfp flags for all THP
charges.  THP allocations, however, might be using different flags
depending on /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/{,khugepaged/}defrag and
the current allocation context.

The primary difference is that defrag configured to "madvise" value will
clear __GFP_WAIT flag from the core gfp mask to make the allocation
lighter for all mappings which are not backed by VM_HUGEPAGE vmas.  If
memcg charge path ignores this fact we will get light allocation but the a
potential memcg reclaim would kill the whole point of the configuration.

Fix the mismatch by providing the same gfp mask used for the allocation to
the charge functions.  This is quite easy for all paths except for
hugepaged kernel thread with !CONFIG_NUMA which is doing a pre-allocation
long before the allocated page is used in collapse_huge_page via
khugepaged_alloc_page.  To prevent from cluttering the whole code path
from khugepaged_do_scan we simply return the current flags as per
khugepaged_defrag() value which might have changed since the
preallocation.  If somebody changed the value of the knob we would charge
differently but this shouldn't happen often and it is definitely not
critical because it would only lead to a reduced success rate of one-off
THP promotion.

9 years agomm: allow compaction of unevictable pages
Eric B Munson [Wed, 15 Apr 2015 23:13:20 +0000 (16:13 -0700)]
mm: allow compaction of unevictable pages

Currently, pages which are marked as unevictable are protected from
compaction, but not from other types of migration.  The POSIX real time
extension explicitly states that mlock() will prevent a major page
fault, but the spirit of this is that mlock() should give a process the
ability to control sources of latency, including minor page faults.
However, the mlock manpage only explicitly says that a locked page will
not be written to swap and this can cause some confusion.  The
compaction code today does not give a developer who wants to avoid swap
but wants to have large contiguous areas available any method to achieve
this state.  This patch introduces a sysctl for controlling compaction
behavior with respect to the unevictable lru.  Users who demand no page
faults after a page is present can set compact_unevictable_allowed to 0
and users who need the large contiguous areas can enable compaction on
locked memory by leaving the default value of 1.

To illustrate this problem I wrote a quick test program that mmaps a
large number of 1MB files filled with random data.  These maps are
created locked and read only.  Then every other mmap is unmapped and I
attempt to allocate huge pages to the static huge page pool.  When the
compact_unevictable_allowed sysctl is 0, I cannot allocate hugepages
after fragmenting memory.  When the value is set to 1, allocations
succeed.

9 years agomm: avoid tail page refcounting on non-THP compound pages
Kirill A. Shutemov [Wed, 15 Apr 2015 23:13:12 +0000 (16:13 -0700)]
mm: avoid tail page refcounting on non-THP compound pages

THP uses tail page refcounting to be able to split huge pages at any time.
 Tail page refcounting is not needed for other users of compound pages and
it's harmful because of overhead.

We try to exclude non-THP pages from tail page refcounting using
__compound_tail_refcounted() check.  It excludes most common non-THP
compound pages: SL*B and hugetlb, but it doesn't catch rest of __GFP_COMP
users -- drivers.

And it's not only about overhead.

Drivers might want to use compound pages to get refcounting semantics
suitable for mapping high-order pages to userspace.  But tail page
refcounting breaks it.

Tail page refcounting uses ->_mapcount in tail pages to store GUP pins on
them.  It means GUP pins would affect page_mapcount() for tail pages.
It's not a problem for THP, because it never maps tail pages.  But unlike
THP, drivers map parts of compound pages with PTEs and it makes
page_mapcount() be called for tail pages.

In particular, GUP pins would shift PSS up and affect /proc/kpagecount for
such pages.  But, I'm not aware about anything which can lead to crash or
other serious misbehaviour.

Since currently all THP pages are anonymous and all drivers pages are not,
we can fix the __compound_tail_refcounted() check by requiring PageAnon()
to enable tail page refcounting.

9 years agomm: consolidate all page-flags helpers in <linux/page-flags.h>
Kirill A. Shutemov [Wed, 15 Apr 2015 23:13:08 +0000 (16:13 -0700)]
mm: consolidate all page-flags helpers in <linux/page-flags.h>

Currently we take a naive approach to page flags on compound pages - we
set the flag on the page without consideration if the flag makes sense
for tail page or for compound page in general.  This patchset try to
sort this out by defining per-flag policy on what need to be done if
page-flag helper operate on compound page.

The last patch in the patchset also sanitizes usege of page->mapping for
tail pages.  We don't define the meaning of page->mapping for tail
pages.  Currently it's always NULL, which can be inconsistent with head
page and potentially lead to problems.

For now I caught one case of illegal usage of page flags or ->mapping:
sound subsystem allocates pages with __GFP_COMP and maps them with PTEs.
It leads to setting dirty bit on tail pages and access to tail_page's
->mapping.  I don't see any bad behaviour caused by this, but worth
fixing anyway.

This patchset makes more sense if you take my THP refcounting into
account: we will see more compound pages mapped with PTEs and we need to
define behaviour of flags on compound pages to avoid bugs.

This patch (of 16):

We have page-flags helper function declarations/definitions spread over
several header files.  Let's consolidate them in <linux/page-flags.h>.

  Fixes:

   - An integer overflow in the calculation of ELF_ET_DYN_BASE.

   - Avoiding OOMs for high-order IOMMU allocations

   - SMP requires the data cache to be enabled for synchronisation
     primitives to work, so prevent the CPU_DCACHE_DISABLE option being
     visible on SMP builds.

   - A bug going back 10+ years in the noMMU ARM94* CPU support code,
     where it corrupts registers.  Found by folk getting Linux running

   - Versatile Express needs an errata workaround enabled for CPU
     hot-unplug to work.

  Features:

   - Clean up module linker by handling out of range relocations
     separately from relocation cases we don't handle.

   - Fix a long term bug in the pci_mmap_page_range() code, which we
     hope won't impact userspace (we hope there's no users of the
     existing broken interface.)

   - Don't map DMA coherent allocations when we don't have a MMU.

   - Drop experimental status for SMP_ON_UP.

   - Warn when DT doesn't specify ePAPR mandatory cache properties.

   - Add documentation concerning how we find the start of physical
     memory for AUTO_ZRELADDR kernels, detailing why we have chosen the
     mask and the implications of changing it.

   - Updates from Ard Biesheuvel to address some issues with large
     kernels (such as allyesconfig) failing to link.

   - Allow hibernation to work on modern (ARMv7) CPUs - this appears to
     have never worked in the past on these CPUs.

   - Enable IRQ_SHOW_LEVEL, which changes the /proc/interrupts output
     format (hopefully without userspace breaking...  let's hope that if
     it causes someone a problem, they tell us.)

   - Fix tegra-ahb DT offsets.

   - Rework ARM errata 643719 code (and ARMv7 flush_cache_louis()/
     flush_dcache_all()) code to be more efficient, and enable this
     errata workaround by default for ARMv7+SMP CPUs.  This complements
     the Versatile Express fix above.

     CPUs are impacted by the branch target buffer flush when this
     errata is enabled.  Also update the help text to indicate that all
     r1p* A8 CPUs are impacted.

   - Switch ARM to the generic show_mem() implementation, it conveys all
     the information which we were already reporting.

   - Prevent slow timer sources being used for udelay() - timers running
     at less than 1MHz are not useful for this, and can cause udelay()
     to return immediately, without any wait.  Using such a slow timer
     is silly.
