mm: remove vmap_page_range_noflush and vunmap_page_range
These have non-static aliases called map_kernel_range_noflush and
unmap_kernel_range_noflush that just differ slightly in the calling
conventions that pass addr + size instead of an end.

mm: only allow page table mappings for built-in zsmalloc
This allows to unexport map_vm_area and unmap_kernel_range, which are
rather deep internal and should not be available to modules, as they for
example allow fine grained control of mapping permissions, and also
allow splitting the setup of a vmalloc area and the actual mapping and
thus expose vmalloc internals.
zsmalloc is typically built-in and continues to work (just like the
percpu-vm code using a similar patter), while modular zsmalloc also
continues to work, but must use copies.

I used this as an opportunity to decruft the vmalloc.c API and make it

Jan alerted me[1] that the W+X detection debug feature was broken in x86
by my change[2] to switch x86 to use the generic ptdump infrastructure.
Fundamentally the approach of trying to move the calculation of
effective permissions into note_page() was broken because note_page() is
only called for 'leaf' entries and the effective permissions are passed
down via the internal nodes of the page tree. The solution I've taken
here is to create a new (optional) callback which is called for all
nodes of the page tree and therefore can calculate the effective
permissions.
Secondly on some configurations (32 bit with PAE) "unsigned long" is not
large enough to store the table entries. The fix here is simple - let's
just use a u64.

By switching the x86 page table dump code to use the generic code the

note_page() function is only called for *leaf* entries. To calculate
the actual effective permissions it is necessary to observe the full

Introduce a new callback for ptdump which is called for every entry and
can therefore update the prot_levels array correctly. note_page() can
then simply access the appropriate element in the array.

mm/memcg: automatically penalize tasks with high swap use
Add a memory.swap.high knob, which can be used to protect the system
from SWAP exhaustion. The mechanism used for penalizing is similar to
memory.high penalty (sleep on return to user space).
That is not to say that the knob itself is equivalent to memory.high.
The objective is more to protect the system from potentially buggy tasks
consuming a lot of swap and impacting other tasks, or even bringing the
whole system to stand still with complete SWAP exhaustion. Hopefully
without the need to find per-task hard limits.
Slowing misbehaving tasks down gradually allows user space oom killers
or other protection mechanisms to react. oomd and earlyoom already do
killing based on swap exhaustion, and memory.swap.high protection will
help implement such userspace oom policies more reliably.
We can use one counter for number of pages allocated under pressure to
save struct task space and avoid two separate hierarchy walks on the hot
path. The exact overage is calculated on return to user space, anyway.
Take the new high limit into account when determining if swap is "full".
Borrowing the explanation from Johannes:
The idea behind "swap full" is that as long as the workload has plenty
of swap space available and it's not changing its memory contents, it
makes sense to generously hold on to copies of data in the swap device,
even after the swapin. A later reclaim cycle can drop the page without
any IO. Trading disk space for IO.
But the only two ways to reclaim a swap slot is when they're faulted
in and the references go away, or by scanning the virtual address space
like swapoff does - which is very expensive (one could argue it's too
expensive even for swapoff, it's often more practical to just reboot).
So at some point in the fill level, we have to start freeing up swap
slots on fault/swapin. Otherwise we could eventually run out of swap
slots while they're filled with copies of data that is also in RAM.
We don't want to OOM a workload because its available swap space is
filled with redundant cache.

mm/memcg: prepare for swap over-high accounting and penalty calculation
Patch series "memcg: Slow down swap allocation as the available space
gets depleted", v6.
Tejun describes the problem as follows:
When swap runs out, there's an abrupt change in system behavior - the
anonymous memory suddenly becomes unmanageable which readily breaks any
sort of memory isolation and can bring down the whole system. To avoid
that, oomd [1] monitors free swap space and triggers kills when it drops
below the specific threshold (e.g. 15%).
While this works, it's far from ideal:
- Depending on IO performance and total swap size, a given
headroom might not be enough or too much.
- oomd has to monitor swap depletion in addition to the usual
pressure metrics and it currently doesn't consider memory.swap.max.
Solve this by adapting parts of the approach that memory.high uses -
slow down allocation as the resource gets depleted turning the depletion
behavior from abrupt cliff one to gradual degradation observable through
memory pressure metric.

This patch (of 4):
Slice the memory overage calculation logic a little bit so we can reuse
it to apply a similar penalty to the swap. The logic which accesses the

memcg: expose root cgroup's memory.stat
One way to measure the efficiency of memory reclaim is to look at the
ratio (pgscan+pfrefill)/pgsteal. However at the moment these stats are
not updated consistently at the system level and the ratio of these are
not very meaningful. The pgsteal and pgscan are updated for only global
reclaim while pgrefill gets updated for global as well as cgroup
reclaim.
Please note that this difference is only for system level vmstats. The
cgroup stats returned by memory.stat are actually consistent. The
cgroup's pgsteal contains number of reclaimed pages for global as well
as cgroup reclaim. So, one way to get the system level stats is to get
these stats from root's memory.stat, so, expose memory.stat for the root
cgroup.
From Johannes Weiner:
There are subtle differences between /proc/vmstat and
memory.stat, and cgroup-aware code that wants to watch the full
hierarchy currently has to know about these intricacies and
translate semantics back and forth.
Generally having the fully recursive memory.stat at the root
level could help a broader range of usecases.
Why not fix the stats by including both the global and cgroup reclaim
activity instead of exposing root cgroup's memory.stat? The reason is
the benefit of having metrics exposing the activity that happens purely
due to machine capacity rather than localized activity that happens due
to the limits throughout the cgroup tree. Additionally there are
userspace tools like sysstat(sar) which reads these stats to inform
about the system level reclaim activity. So, we should not break such
use-cases.

swap: reduce lock contention on swap cache from swap slots allocation
In some swap scalability test, it is found that there are heavy lock
contention on swap cache even if we have split one swap cache radix tree
per swap device to one swap cache radix tree every 64 MB trunk in commit 4b3ef9daa4fc ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB trunks").
The reason is as follow. After the swap device becomes fragmented so
that there's no free swap cluster, the swap device will be scanned
linearly to find the free swap slots. swap_info_struct->cluster_next is
the next scanning base that is shared by all CPUs. So nearby free swap
slots will be allocated for different CPUs. The probability for
multiple CPUs to operate on the same 64 MB trunk is high. This causes
the lock contention on the swap cache.
To solve the issue, in this patch, for SSD swap device, a percpu version
next scanning base (cluster_next_cpu) is added. Every CPU will use its
own per-cpu next scanning base. And after finishing scanning a 64MB
trunk, the per-cpu scanning base will be changed to the beginning of
another randomly selected 64MB trunk. In this way, the probability for
multiple CPUs to operate on the same 64 MB trunk is reduced greatly.
Thus the lock contention is reduced too. For HDD, because sequential
access is more important for IO performance, the original shared next
scanning base is used.
To test the patch, we have run 16-process pmbench memory benchmark on a
2-socket server machine with 48 cores. One ram disk is configured as the
swap device per socket. The pmbench working-set size is much larger than
the available memory so that swapping is triggered. The memory read/write
ratio is 80/20 and the accessing pattern is random. In the original
implementation, the lock contention on the swap cache is heavy. The perf
profiling data of the lock contention code path is as following,
The lock contention on the swap cache is almost eliminated.
And the pmbench score increases 18.5%. The swapin throughput increases
18.7% from 2.96 GB/s to 3.51 GB/s. While the swapout throughput increases
18.5% from 2.99 GB/s to 3.54 GB/s.
We need really fast disk to show the benefit. I have tried this on 2
Intel P3600 NVMe disks. The performance improvement is only about 1%.
The improvement should be better on the faster disks, such as Intel Optane
disk.

swap: try to scan more free slots even when fragmented
Now, the scalability of swap code will drop much when the swap device
becomes fragmented, because the swap slots allocation batching stops
working. To solve the problem, in this patch, we will try to scan a
little more swap slots with restricted effort to batch the swap slots
allocation even if the swap device is fragmented. Test shows that the
benchmark score can increase up to 37.1% with the patch. Details are as
follows.
The swap code has a per-cpu cache of swap slots. These batch swap space
allocations to improve swap subsystem scaling. In the following code
path,
scan_swap_map_slots() and get_swap_pages() can return multiple swap
slots for each call. These slots will be cached in the per-CPU swap
slots cache, so that several following swap slot requests will be
fulfilled there to avoid the lock contention in the lower level swap
space allocation/freeing code path.
But this only works when there are free swap clusters. If a swap device
becomes so fragmented that there's no free swap clusters,
scan_swap_map_slots() and get_swap_pages() will return only one swap
slot for each call in the above code path. Effectively, this falls back
to the situation before the swap slots cache was introduced, the heavy
lock contention on the swap related locks kills the scalability.
Why does it work in this way? Because the swap device could be large,
and the free swap slot scanning could be quite time consuming, to avoid
taking too much time to scanning free swap slots, the conservative
method was used.
In fact, this can be improved via scanning a little more free slots with
strictly restricted effort. Which is implemented in this patch. In
scan_swap_map_slots(), after the first free swap slot is gotten, we will
try to scan a little more, but only if we haven't scanned too many slots
(< LATENCY_LIMIT). That is, the added scanning latency is strictly
restricted.
To test the patch, we have run 16-process pmbench memory benchmark on a
2-socket server machine with 48 cores. Multiple ram disks are
configured as the swap devices. The pmbench working-set size is much
larger than the available memory so that swapping is triggered. The
memory read/write ratio is 80/20 and the accessing pattern is random, so
the swap space becomes highly fragmented during the test. In the
original implementation, the lock contention on swap related locks is
very heavy. The perf profiling data of the lock contention code path is
as following,
That is, the lock contention on the swap locks is eliminated.
And the pmbench score increases 37.1%. The swapin throughput increases
45.7% from 2.02 GB/s to 2.94 GB/s. While the swapout throughput increases
45.3% from 2.04 GB/s to 2.97 GB/s.

mm: swap: properly update readahead statistics in unuse_pte_range()
In unuse_pte_range() we blindly swap-in pages without checking if the
swap entry is already present in the swap cache.
By doing this, the hit/miss ratio used by the swap readahead heuristic
is not properly updated and this leads to non-optimal performance during
swapoff.
Tracing the distribution of the readahead size returned by the swap
readahead heuristic during swapoff shows that a small readahead size is
used most of the time as if we had only misses (this happens both with
cluster and vma readahead), for example:
Checking if the swap entry is present in the swap cache, instead, allows
to properly update the readahead statistics and the heuristic behaves in a
better way during swapoff, selecting a bigger readahead size:
- Guest (kvm):
8GB of RAM
virtio block driver
16GB swap file on ext4 (/swapfile)
Test case
=========
- allocate 85% of memory
- `systemctl hibernate` to force all the pages to be swapped-out to the
swap file
- resume the system
- measure the time that swapoff takes to complete:
# /usr/bin/time swapoff /swapfile
Result (swapoff time)

mm/writeback: discard NR_UNSTABLE_NFS, use NR_WRITEBACK instead
After an NFS page has been written it is considered "unstable" until a
COMMIT request succeeds. If the COMMIT fails, the page will be
re-written.
These "unstable" pages are currently accounted as "reclaimable", either
in WB_RECLAIMABLE, or in NR_UNSTABLE_NFS which is included in a
'reclaimable' count. This might have made sense when sending the COMMIT
required a separate action by the VFS/MM (e.g. releasepage() used to
send a COMMIT). However now that all writes generated by ->writepages()
will automatically be followed by a COMMIT (since commit 919e3bd9a875
("NFS: Ensure we commit after writeback is complete")) it makes more
sense to treat them as writeback pages.
So this patch removes NR_UNSTABLE_NFS and accounts unstable pages in
NR_WRITEBACK and WB_WRITEBACK.
A particular effect of this change is that when
wb_check_background_flush() calls wb_over_bg_threshold(), the latter
will report 'true' a lot less often as the 'unstable' pages are no
longer considered 'dirty' (as there is nothing that writeback can do
about them anyway).
Currently wb_check_background_flush() will trigger writeback to NFS even
when there are relatively few dirty pages (if there are lots of unstable
pages), this can result in small writes going to the server (10s of
Kilobytes rather than a Megabyte) which hurts throughput. With this
patch, there are fewer writes which are each larger on average.
Where the NR_UNSTABLE_NFS count was included in statistics
virtual-files, the entry is retained, but the value is hard-coded as
zero. static trace points and warning printks which mentioned this
counter no longer report it.

mm/writeback: replace PF_LESS_THROTTLE with PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE
PF_LESS_THROTTLE exists for loop-back nfsd (and a similar need in the
loop block driver and callers of prctl(PR_SET_IO_FLUSHER)), where a
daemon needs to write to one bdi (the final bdi) in order to free up
writes queued to another bdi (the client bdi).
The daemon sets PF_LESS_THROTTLE and gets a larger allowance of dirty
pages, so that it can still dirty pages after other processses have been
throttled. The purpose of this is to avoid deadlock that happen when
the PF_LESS_THROTTLE process must write for any dirty pages to be freed,
but it is being thottled and cannot write.
This approach was designed when all threads were blocked equally,
independently on which device they were writing to, or how fast it was.
Since that time the writeback algorithm has changed substantially with
different threads getting different allowances based on non-trivial
heuristics. This means the simple "add 25%" heuristic is no longer
reliable.
The important issue is not that the daemon needs a *larger* dirty page
allowance, but that it needs a *private* dirty page allowance, so that
dirty pages for the "client" bdi that it is helping to clear (the bdi
for an NFS filesystem or loop block device etc) do not affect the
throttling of the daemon writing to the "final" bdi.
This patch changes the heuristic so that the task is not throttled when
the bdi it is writing to has a dirty page count below below (or equal
to) the free-run threshold for that bdi. This ensures it will always be
able to have some pages in flight, and so will not deadlock.
In a steady-state, it is expected that PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE tasks might
still be throttled by global threshold, but that is acceptable as it is
only the deadlock state that is interesting for this flag.
This approach of "only throttle when target bdi is busy" is consistent
with the other use of PF_LESS_THROTTLE in current_may_throttle(), were
it causes attention to be focussed only on the target bdi.
So this patch
- renames PF_LESS_THROTTLE to PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE,
- removes the 25% bonus that that flag gives, and
- If PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE is set, don't delay at all unless the
global and the local free-run thresholds are exceeded.
Note that previously realtime threads were treated the same as
PF_LESS_THROTTLE threads. This patch does *not* change the behvaiour
for real-time threads, so it is now different from the behaviour of nfsd
and loop tasks. I don't know what is wanted for realtime.

Patch series "Introduce attach/detach_page_private to cleanup code".
This patch (of 10):
The logic in attach_page_buffers and __clear_page_buffers are quite
paired, but
1. they are located in different files.
2. attach_page_buffers is implemented in buffer_head.h, so it could be
used by other files. But __clear_page_buffers is static function in
buffer.c and other potential users can't call the function, md-bitmap
even copied the function.
So, introduce the new attach/detach_page_private to replace them. With
the new pair of function, we will remove the usage of attach_page_buffers
and __clear_page_buffers in next patches. Thanks for suggestions about
the function name from Alexander Viro, Andreas Grünbacher, Christoph
Hellwig and Matthew Wilcox.

When populating the page cache for readahead, mappings that use
->readpages must populate the page cache themselves as the pages are
passed on a linked list which would normally be used for the page
cache's LRU. For mappings that use ->readpage or the upcoming
->readahead method, we can put the pages into the page cache as soon as
they're allocated, which solves a race between readahead and direct IO.
It also lets us remove the gfp argument from read_pages().
Use the new readahead_page() API to implement the repeated calls to
->readpage(), just like most filesystems will.

The word 'offset' is used ambiguously to mean 'byte offset within a
page', 'byte offset from the start of the file' and 'page offset from
the start of the file'.
Use 'index' to mean 'page offset from the start of the file' throughout
the readahead code.

ondemand_readahead has two callers, neither of which use the return
value. That means that both ra_submit and __do_page_cache_readahead()
can return void, and we don't need to worry that a present page in the

have.
Similarly, no caller uses the return value from

This series adds a readahead address_space operation to replace the
readpages operation. The key difference is that pages are added to the
page cache as they are allocated (and then looked up by the filesystem)
instead of passing them on a list to the readpages operation and having
the filesystem add them to the page cache. It's a net reduction in code
for each implementation, more efficient than walking a list, and solves
the direct-write vs buffered-read problem reported by yu kuai at
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200116063601.39201-1-yukuai3@huawei.com
The only unconverted filesystems are those which use fscache. Their
conversion is pending Dave Howells' rewrite which will make the
conversion substantially easier. This should be completed by the end of
the year.
I want to thank the reviewers/testers; Dave Chinner, John Hubbard, Eric
Biggers, Johannes Thumshirn, Dave Sterba, Zi Yan, Christoph Hellwig and
Miklos Szeredi have done a marvellous job of providing constructive
criticism.
These patches pass an xfstests run on ext4, xfs & btrfs with no
regressions that I can tell (some of the tests seem a little flaky
before and remain flaky afterwards).
This patch (of 25):
The readahead code is part of the page cache so should be found in the
pagemap.h file. force_page_cache_readahead is only used within mm, so
move it to mm/internal.h instead. Remove the parameter names where they
add no value, and rename the ones which were actively misleading.

Besides the underlying issue with page->mapping containing a bogus value
for some reason, we can see that __dump_page() crashed by trying to read
the pointer at mapping->host, turning a recoverable warning into full
Oops.
It can be expected that when page is reported as bad state for some
reason, the pointers there should not be trusted blindly.
So this patch treats all data in __dump_page() that depends on
page->mapping as lava, using probe_kernel_read_strict(). Ideally this
would include the dentry->d_parent recursively, but that would mean
changing printk handler for %pd. Chances of reaching the dentry
printing part with an initially bogus mapping pointer should be rather
low, though.
Also prefix printing mapping->a_ops with a description of what is being
printed. In case the value is bogus, %ps will print raw value instead
of the symbol name and then it's not obvious at all that it's printing
a_ops.

mm/slub: fix stack overruns with SLUB_STATS
There is no need to copy SLUB_STATS items from root memcg cache to new
memcg cache copies. Doing so could result in stack overruns because the
store function only accepts 0 to clear the stat and returns an error for
everything else while the show method would print out the whole stat.
Then, the mismatch of the lengths returns from show and store methods
happens in memcg_propagate_slab_attrs():
else if (root_cache->max_attr_size < ARRAY_SIZE(mbuf))
buf = mbuf;
max_attr_size is only 2 from slab_attr_store(), then, it uses mbuf[64]
in show_stat() later where a bounch of sprintf() would overrun the stack
variable. Fix it by always allocating a page of buffer to be used in
show_stat() if SLUB_STATS=y which should only be used for debug purpose.

list_slab_objects() is called when a slab is destroyed and there are
objects still left to list the objects in the syslog. This is a pretty
rare event.
And there it seems we take the list_lock and call kmalloc while holding
that lock.
Perform the allocation in free_partial() before the list_lock is taken.

Kmem caches are internal kernel structures so it is strange that
userspace notifiers would be needed. And I am not aware of any use of

mm/slub.c: fix corrupted freechain in deactivate_slab()
The slub_debug is able to fix the corrupted slab freelist/page.
However, alloc_debug_processing() only checks the validity of current
and next freepointer during allocation path. As a result, once some
objects have their freepointers corrupted, deactivate_slab() may lead to
page fault.
Below is from a test kernel module when 'slub_debug=PUF,kmalloc-128
slub_nomerge'. The test kernel corrupts the freepointer of one free
object on purpose. Unfortunately, deactivate_slab() does not detect it
when iterating the freechain.
Therefore, this patch adds extra consistency check in deactivate_slab().
Once an object's freepointer is corrupted, all following objects
starting at this object are isolated.
