mm, debug: replace dump_flags() with the new printk formats
With the new printk format strings for flags, we can get rid of
dump_flags() in mm/debug.c.
This also fixes dump_vma() which used dump_flags() for printing vma
flags. However dump_flags() did a page-flags specific filtering of bits
higher than NR_PAGEFLAGS in order to remove the zone id part. For
dump_vma() this resulted in removing several VM_* flags from the
symbolic translation.

mm, printk: introduce new format string for flags
In mm we use several kinds of flags bitfields that are sometimes printed
for debugging purposes, or exported to userspace via sysfs. To make
them easier to interpret independently on kernel version and config, we
want to dump also the symbolic flag names. So far this has been done
with repeated calls to pr_cont(), which is unreliable on SMP, and not
usable for e.g. sysfs export.
To get a more reliable and universal solution, this patch extends
printk() format string for pointers to handle the page flags (%pGp),
gfp_flags (%pGg) and vma flags (%pGv). Existing users of
dump_flag_names() are converted and simplified.
It would be possible to pass flags by value instead of pointer, but the
%p format string for pointers already has extensions for various kernel
structures, so it's a good fit, and the extra indirection in a
non-critical path is negligible.

mm, tracing: unify mm flags handling in tracepoints and printk
In tracepoints, it's possible to print gfp flags in a human-friendly
format through a macro show_gfp_flags(), which defines a translation
array and passes is to __print_flags(). Since the following patch will
introduce support for gfp flags printing in printk(), it would be nice
to reuse the array. This is not straightforward, since __print_flags()
can't simply reference an array defined in a .c file such as mm/debug.c
- it has to be a macro to allow the macro magic to communicate the
format to userspace tools such as trace-cmd.
The solution is to create a macro __def_gfpflag_names which is used both
in show_gfp_flags(), and to define the gfpflag_names[] array in
mm/debug.c.
On the other hand, mm/debug.c also defines translation tables for page
flags and vma flags, and desire was expressed (but not implemented in
this series) to use these also from tracepoints. Thus, this patch also
renames the events/gfpflags.h file to events/mmflags.h and moves the
table definitions there, using the same macro approach as for gfpflags.
This allows translating all three kinds of mm-specific flags both in
tracepoints and printk.

mm: filemap: avoid unnecessary calls to lock_page when waiting for IO to complete during a read
In the generic read paths the kernel looks up a page in the page cache
and if it's up to date, it is used. If not, the page lock is acquired
to wait for IO to complete and then check the page. If multiple
processes are waiting on IO, they all serialise against the lock and
duplicate the checks. This is unnecessary.
The page lock in itself does not give any guarantees to the callers
about the page state as it can be immediately truncated or reclaimed
after the page is unlocked. It's sufficient to wait_on_page_locked and
then continue if the page is up to date on wakeup.
It is possible that a truncated but up-to-date page is returned but the
reference taken during read prevents it disappearing underneath the
caller and the data is still valid if PageUptodate.
The overall impact is small as even if processes serialise on the lock,
the lock section is tiny once the IO is complete. Profiles indicated
that unlock_page and friends are generally a tiny portion of a
read-intensive workload. An artificial test was created that had
instances of dd access a cache-cold file on an ext4 filesystem and
measure how long the read took.

Background:
Someone complained to me that left OOB doesn't catch even if KASAN is

control so it would be allocated when left OOB happens and, in this
case, we can't find OOB. Moreover, SLUB debugging feature can be

Currently, free_debug_processing has a comment "Keep node_lock to preserve
integrity until the object is actually freed". In actuallity, the lock is
dropped immediately in __slab_free. Rather than wait until __slab_free
and potentially throw off the unlikely marking, just drop the lock in
__slab_free. This also lets free_debug_processing take its own copy of
the spinlock flags rather than trying to share the ones from __slab_free.
Since there is no use for the node afterwards, change the return type of
free_debug_processing to return an int like alloc_debug_processing.

mm/slab: re-implement pfmemalloc support
Current implementation of pfmemalloc handling in SLAB has some problems.
1) pfmemalloc_active is set to true when there is just one or more
pfmemalloc slabs in the system, but it is cleared when there is no
pfmemalloc slab in one arbitrary kmem_cache. So, pfmemalloc_active
could be wrongly cleared.
2) Search to partial and free list doesn't happen when non-pfmemalloc
object are not found in cpu cache. Instead, allocating new slab
happens and it is not optimal.
3) Even after sk_memalloc_socks() is disabled, cpu cache would keep
pfmemalloc objects tagged with SLAB_OBJ_PFMEMALLOC. It isn't cleared
if sk_memalloc_socks() is disabled so it could cause problem.
4) If cpu cache is filled with pfmemalloc objects, it would cause slow
down non-pfmemalloc allocation.
To me, current pointer tagging approach looks complex and fragile so this
patch re-implement whole thing instead of fixing problems one by one.
Design principle for new implementation is that
1) Don't disrupt non-pfmemalloc allocation in fast path even if
sk_memalloc_socks() is enabled. It's more likely case than pfmemalloc
allocation.
2) Ensure that pfmemalloc slab is used only for pfmemalloc allocation.
3) Don't consider performance of pfmemalloc allocation in memory
deficiency state.
As a result, all pfmemalloc alloc/free in memory tight state will be
handled in slow-path. If there is non-pfmemalloc free object, it will be
returned first even for pfmemalloc user in fast-path so that performance
of pfmemalloc user isn't affected in normal case and pfmemalloc objects
will be kept as long as possible.

mm/slab: introduce new slab management type, OBJFREELIST_SLAB
SLAB needs an array to manage freed objects in a slab. It is only used
if some objects are freed so we can use free object itself as this
array. This requires additional branch in somewhat critical lock path
to check if it is first freed object or not but that's all we need.
Benefits is that we can save extra memory usage and reduce some
computational overhead by allocating a management array when new slab is
created.
Code change is rather complex than what we can expect from the idea, in
order to handle debugging feature efficiently. If you want to see core
idea only, please remove '#if DEBUG' block in the patch.
Although this idea can apply to all caches whose size is larger than
management array size, it isn't applied to caches which have a
constructor. If such cache's object is used for management array,
constructor should be called for it before that object is returned to
user. I guess that overhead overwhelm benefit in that case so this idea
doesn't applied to them at least now.
For summary, from now on, slab management type is determined by
following logic.
1) if management array size is smaller than object size and no ctor, it
becomes OBJFREELIST_SLAB.
2) if management array size is smaller than leftover, it becomes
NORMAL_SLAB which uses leftover as a array.
3) if OFF_SLAB help to save memory than way 4), it becomes OFF_SLAB.
It allocate a management array from the other cache so memory waste
happens.
4) others become NORMAL_SLAB. It uses dedicated internal memory in a
slab as a management array so it causes memory waste.
In my system, without enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB, Almost caches become
OBJFREELIST_SLAB and NORMAL_SLAB (using leftover) which doesn't waste
memory. Following is the result of number of caches with specific slab
management type.
TOTAL = OBJFREELIST + NORMAL(leftover) + NORMAL + OFF
/Before/
126 = 0 + 60 + 25 + 41
/After/
126 = 97 + 12 + 15 + 2
Result shows that number of caches that doesn't waste memory increase
from 60 to 109.
I did some benchmarking and it looks that benefit are more than loss.
In fact, I tested another idea implementing OBJFREELIST_SLAB with
extendable linked array through another freed object. It can remove
memory waste completely but it causes more computational overhead in
critical lock path and it seems that overhead outweigh benefit. So, this
patch doesn't include it.

checking that corresponding kmalloc cache is ready and it's not a off

affected by cache size change or architecture type but dynamic checking

To remove this extra memory usage and to simplify initialization step,
this patch implement this feature with another way.
When user requests to get slab object owner information, it marks that
getting information is started. And then, all free objects in caches
are flushed to corresponding slab page. Now, we can distinguish all
freed object so we can know all allocated objects, too. After
collecting slab object owner information on allocated objects, mark is
checked that there is no free during the processing. If true, we can be
sure that our information is correct so information is returned to user.
Although this way is rather complex, it has two important benefits
mentioned above. So, I think it is worth changing.
There is one drawback that it takes more time to get slab object owner
information but it is just a debug option so it doesn't matter at all.
To help review, this patch implements new way only. Following patch

SLAB needs a array to manage freed objects in a slab. If there is
leftover after objects are packed into a slab, we can use it as a
management array, and, in this case, there is no memory waste. But, in
the other cases, we need to allocate extra memory for a management array
or utilize dedicated internal memory in a slab for it. Both cases
causes memory waste so it's not good.

This patch introduce a new API call kfree_bulk() for bulk freeing memory
objects not bound to a single kmem_cache.
Christoph pointed out that it is possible to implement freeing of
objects, without knowing the kmem_cache pointer as that information is
available from the object's page->slab_cache. Proposing to remove the
kmem_cache argument from the bulk free API.
Jesper demonstrated that these extra steps per object comes at a
performance cost. It is only in the case CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is compiled
in and activated runtime that these steps are done anyhow. The extra
cost is most visible for SLAB allocator, because the SLUB allocator does
the page lookup (virt_to_head_page()) anyhow.
Thus, the conclusion was to keep the kmem_cache free bulk API with a
kmem_cache pointer, but we can still implement a kfree_bulk() API fairly
easily. Simply by handling if kmem_cache_free_bulk() gets called with a
kmem_cache NULL pointer.
This does increase the code size a bit, but implementing a separate
kfree_bulk() call would likely increase code size even more.
Below benchmarks cost of alloc+free (obj size 256 bytes) on CPU i7-4790K
@ 4.00GHz, no PREEMPT and CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM=y.
Code size increase for SLAB:
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 1/0 up/down: 74/0 (74)
function old new delta
kmem_cache_free_bulk 660 734 +74
This patch implements the free side of bulk API for the SLAB allocator
kmem_cache_free_bulk(), and concludes the implementation of optimized
bulk API for SLAB allocator.
Benchmarked[1] cost of alloc+free (obj size 256 bytes) on CPU i7-4790K @

no active user of kmemcg.
SLAB single alloc+free cost: 87 cycles(tsc) 21.814 ns with this
optimized config.
This patch implements the alloc side of bulk API for the SLAB allocator.
Further optimization are still possible by changing the call to
__do_cache_alloc() into something that can return multiple objects.
This optimization is left for later, given end results already show in
the area of 80% speedup.

slub: clean up code for kmem cgroup support to kmem_cache_free_bulk
This change is primarily an attempt to make it easier to realize the
optimizations the compiler performs in-case CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is not
enabled.
Performance wise, even when CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is compiled in, the
overhead is zero. This is because, as long as no process have enabled
kmem cgroups accounting, the assignment is replaced by asm-NOP
operations. This is possible because memcg_kmem_enabled() uses a
static_key_false() construct.
It also helps readability as it avoid accessing the p[] array like:
p[size - 1] which "expose" that the array is processed backwards inside
helper function build_detached_freelist().
Lastly this also makes the code more robust, in error case like passing
NULL pointers in the array. Which were previously handled before commit 033745189b1b ("slub: add missing kmem cgroup support to

"Main kernel side changes:
- Big reorganization of the x86 perf support code. The old code grew
organically deep inside arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf* and its naming
became somewhat messy.
The new location is under arch/x86/events/, using the following
cleaner hierarchy of source code files:
- Add 'L' hotkey to dynamicly set the percent threshold for
histogram entries and callchains, i.e. dynamicly do what the
--percent-limit command line option to 'top' and 'report' does.
(Namhyung Kim)
perf mem:
- Allow specifying events via -e in 'perf mem record', also listing
what events can be specified via 'perf mem record -e list' (Jiri
Olsa)
perf record:
- Add 'perf record' --all-user/--all-kernel options, so that one
can tell that all the events in the command line should be
restricted to the user or kernel levels (Jiri Olsa), i.e.:
perf record -e cycles:u,instructions:u
is equivalent to:
perf record --all-user -e cycles,instructions
- Make 'perf record' collect CPU cache info in the perf.data file header:
$ perf record usleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.017 MB perf.data (7 samples) ]
$ perf report --header-only -I | tail -10 | head -8
# CPU cache info:
# L1 Data 32K [0-1]
# L1 Instruction 32K [0-1]
# L1 Data 32K [2-3]
# L1 Instruction 32K [2-3]
# L2 Unified 256K [0-1]
# L2 Unified 256K [2-3]
# L3 Unified 4096K [0-3]
Will be used in 'perf c2c' and eventually in 'perf diff' to
allow, for instance running the same workload in multiple
machines and then when using 'diff' show the hardware difference.
(Jiri Olsa)
- Improved support for Java, using the JVMTI agent library to do
jitdumps that then will be inserted in synthesized
PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 events via 'perf inject' pointed to synthesized
ELF files stored in ~/.debug and keyed with build-ids, to allow
symbol resolution and even annotation with source line info, see
the changeset comments to see how to use it (Stephane Eranian)
perf script/trace:
- Decode data_src values (e.g. perf.data files generated by 'perf
mem record') in 'perf script': (Jiri Olsa)
# perf script
perf 693 [1] 4.088652: 1 cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: ffff88007d0b0f4068100142 L1 hit|SNP None|TLB L1 or L2 hit|LCK No <SNIP>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- Improve support to 'data_src', 'weight' and 'addr' fields in
'perf script' (Jiri Olsa)
- Handle empty print fmts in 'perf script -s' i.e. when running
python or perl scripts (Taeung Song)
perf stat:
- 'perf stat' now shows shadow metrics (insn per cycle, etc) in
interval mode too. E.g:
# perf stat -I 1000 -e instructions,cycles sleep 1
# time counts unit events
1.000215928 519,620 instructions # 0.69 insn per cycle

When calculate_cpu_foreign_map() recalculates the cpu_foreign_map
cpumask it uses the local variable temp_foreign_map without initialising
it to zero. Since the calculation only ever sets bits in this cpumask
any existing bits at that memory location will remain set and find their
way into cpu_foreign_map too. This could potentially lead to cache
operations suboptimally doing smp calls to multiple VPEs in the same

x86/efi: Fix boot crash by always mapping boot service regions into new EFI page tables
Some machines have EFI regions in page zero (physical address
0x00000000) and historically that region has been added to the e820
map via trim_bios_range(), and ultimately mapped into the kernel page
tables. It was not mapped via efi_map_regions() as one would expect.
Alexis reports that with the new separate EFI page tables some boot
services regions, such as page zero, are not mapped. This triggers an
oops during the SetVirtualAddressMap() runtime call.
For the EFI boot services quirk on x86 we need to memblock_reserve()
boot services regions until after SetVirtualAddressMap(). Doing that
while respecting the ownership of regions that may have already been
reserved by the kernel was the motivation behind this commit:
7d68dc3f1003 ("x86, efi: Do not reserve boot services regions within reserved areas")
That patch was merged at a time when the EFI runtime virtual mappings
were inserted into the kernel page tables as described above, and the
trick of setting ->numpages (and hence the region size) to zero to
track regions that should not be freed in efi_free_boot_services()
meant that we never mapped those regions in efi_map_regions(). Instead
we were relying solely on the existing kernel mappings.
Now that we have separate page tables we need to make sure the EFI
boot services regions are mapped correctly, even if someone else has
already called memblock_reserve(). Instead of stashing a tag in
->numpages, set the EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME bit of ->attribute. Since it
generally makes no sense to mark a boot services region as required at
runtime, it's pretty much guaranteed the firmware will not have
already set this bit.
For the record, the specific circumstances under which Alexis
triggered this bug was that an EFI runtime driver on his machine was
responding to the EVT_SIGNAL_VIRTUAL_ADDRESS_CHANGE event during
SetVirtualAddressMap().
The event handler for this driver looks like this,
Which is pretty typical code for an EVT_SIGNAL_VIRTUAL_ADDRESS_CHANGE
handler. The "mov r11, QWORD PTR [rip+0x2424]" was the faulting
instruction because ConvertPointer() was being called to convert the
address 0x0000000000000000, which when converted is left unchanged and
remains 0x0000000000000000.
The output of the oops trace gave the impression of a standard NULL
pointer dereference bug, but because we're accessing physical
addresses during ConvertPointer(), it wasn't. EFI boot services code
is stored at that address on Alexis' machine.

ARM: mvebu: fix overlap of Crypto SRAM with PCIe memory window
When the Crypto SRAM mappings were added to the Device Tree files
describing the Armada XP boards in commit c466d997bb16 ("ARM: mvebu:
define crypto SRAM ranges for all armada-xp boards"), the fact that
those mappings were overlaping with the PCIe memory aperture was
overlooked. Due to this, we currently have for all Armada XP platforms
a situation that looks like this:
Memory mapping on Armada XP boards with internal registers at
0xf1000000:
The overlap means that when PCIe devices are added, depending on their
memory window needs, they might or might not be mapped into the
physical address space. Indeed, they will not be mapped if the area
allocated in the PCIe memory aperture by the PCI core overlaps with
one of the Crypto SRAM. Typically, a Intel IGB PCIe NIC that needs 8MB
of PCIe memory will see its PCIe memory window allocated from
0xf80000000 for 8MB, which overlaps with the Crypto SRAM windows. Due
to this, the PCIe window is not created, and any attempt to access the
PCIe window makes the kernel explode:

[ 3.330811] Unhandled fault: external abort on non-linefetch (0x1008) at 0xf08c0018
This problem does not occur on Armada 370 boards, because we use the
following memory mapping (for boards that have internal registers at
0xf1000000):
Obviously, the solution is to align the location of the Crypto SRAM
mappings of Armada XP to be similar with the ones on Armada 370, i.e
have them between the "internal registers" area and the beginning of
the PCIe aperture.
However, we have a special case with the OpenBlocks AX3-4 platform,
which has a 128 MB NOR flash. Currently, this NOR flash is mapped from
0xf0000000 to 0xf8000000. This is possible because on OpenBlocks
AX3-4, the internal registers are not at 0xf1000000. And this explains
why the Crypto SRAM mappings were not configured at the same place on
Armada XP.
Hence, the solution is two-fold:
(1) Move the NOR flash mapping on Armada XP OpenBlocks AX3-4 from
0xe8000000 to 0xf0000000. This frees the 0xf0000000 ->
0xf80000000 space.
(2) Move the Crypto SRAM mappings on Armada XP to be similar to
Armada 370 (except of course that Armada XP has two Crypto SRAM
and not one).
After this patch, the memory mapping on Armada XP boards with
registers at 0xf1 is:

perf stat: Implement --metric-only mode
Add a new mode to only print metrics. Sometimes we don't care about the
raw values, just want the computed metrics. This allows more compact
printing, so with -I each sample is only a single line. This also
allows easier plotting and processing with other tools.
The main target is with using --topdown, but it also works with -T and
standard perf stat. A few metrics are not supported.
To avoiding having to hardcode all the metrics in the code it uses a two
pass approach: first compute dummy metrics and only print the headers in
the print_metric callback. Then use the callback to print the actual
values.
There are some additional changes in the stat printout code to handle
all metrics being on a single line.
One issue is that the column code doesn't know in advance what events
are not supported by the CPU, and it would be hard to find out as this
could change based on dynamic conditions. That causes empty columns in
some cases.
The output can be fairly wide, often you may need more than 80 columns.
