a2362d2476 mm/fremap.c: fix possible oops on error path
The vm_flags introduced in 6d7825b10d ("mm/fremap.c: fix oops on error
path") is supposed to avoid a compiler warning about unitialized
vm_flags without changing the generated code.

However I am concerned that this is going to be very brittle, and fail
with some compiler versions. The failure could be either of:

- compiler could actually load vma->vm_flags before checking for the
  !vma condition, thus reintroducing the oops

- compiler could optimize out the !vma check, since the pointer just got
  dereferenced shortly before (so the compiler knows it can't be NULL!)

I propose reversing this part of the change and initializing vm_flags to 0
just to avoid the bogus uninitialized use warning.

6d7825b10d mm/fremap.c: fix oops on error path
If find_vma() fails, sys_remap_file_pages() will dereference `vma', which
contains NULL.  Fix it by checking the pointer.

(We could alternatively check for err==0, but this seems more direct)

(The vm_flags change is to squish a bogus used-uninitialised warning
without adding extra code).

f8749452ad mm: remove_memory(): fix end_pfn setting
remove_memory() calls walk_memory_range() with [start_pfn, end_pfn), where
end_pfn is exclusive in this range.  Therefore, end_pfn needs to be set to
the next page of the end address.

4febd95a8a Select VIRT_TO_BUS directly where needed
In commit 887cbce0ad ("arch Kconfig: centralise ARCH_NO_VIRT_TO_BUS")
I introduced the config sybmol HAVE_VIRT_TO_BUS and selected that where
needed.  I am not sure what I was thinking.  Instead, just directly
select VIRT_TO_BUS where it is needed.

8aec0f5d41 Fix: compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() misuse in aio, readv, writev, and security keys
Looking at mm/process_vm_access.c:process_vm_rw() and comparing it to
compat_process_vm_rw() shows that the compatibility code requires an
explicit "access_ok()" check before calling
compat_rw_copy_check_uvector(). The same difference seems to appear when
we compare fs/read_write.c:do_readv_writev() to
fs/compat.c:compat_do_readv_writev().

This subtle difference between the compat and non-compat requirements
should probably be debated, as it seems to be error-prone. In fact,
there are two others sites that use this function in the Linux kernel,
and they both seem to get it wrong:

Now shifting our attention to fs/aio.c, we see that aio_setup_iocb()
also ends up calling compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() through
aio_setup_vectored_rw(). Unfortunately, the access_ok() check appears to
be missing. Same situation for
security/keys/compat.c:compat_keyctl_instantiate_key_iov().

I propose that we add the access_ok() check directly into
compat_rw_copy_check_uvector(), so callers don't have to worry about it,
and it therefore makes the compat call code similar to its non-compat
counterpart. Place the access_ok() check in the same location where
copy_from_user() can trigger a -EFAULT error in the non-compat code, so
the ABI behaviors are alike on both compat and non-compat.

While we are here, fix compat_do_readv_writev() so it checks for
compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() negative return values.

And also, fix a memory leak in compat_keyctl_instantiate_key_iov() error
handling.

32fcfd4071 make vfree() safe to call from interrupt contexts
A bunch of RCU callbacks want to be able to do vfree() and end up with
rather kludgy schemes.  Just let vfree() do the right thing - put the
victim on llist and schedule actual __vunmap() via schedule_work(), so
that it runs from non-interrupt context.

d8fc16a825 ksm: fix m68k build: only NUMA needs pfn_to_nid
A CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM=y m68k config gave

  mm/ksm.c:492: error: implicit declaration of function `pfn_to_nid'

linux/mmzone.h declares it for CONFIG_SPARSEMEM and CONFIG_FLATMEM, but
expects the arch's asm/mmzone.h to declare it for CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM
(see arch/mips/include/asm/mmzone.h for example).

Or perhaps it is only expected when CONFIG_NUMA=y: too much of a maze,
and m68k got away without it so far, so fix the build in mm/ksm.c.

Don Morris reproduced on a HP z620 workstation, and bisected it to
commit e8d1955258 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock
is ready")

It turns out movable_map has some problems, and it breaks several things

1. numa_init is called several times, NOT just for srat. so those
	nodes_clear(numa_nodes_parsed)
	memset(&numa_meminfo, 0, sizeof(numa_meminfo))
   can not be just removed.  Need to consider sequence is: numaq, srat, amd, dummy.
   and make fall back path working.

2. simply split acpi_numa_init to early_parse_srat.
   a. that early_parse_srat is NOT called for ia64, so you break ia64.
   b.  for (i = 0; i < MAX_LOCAL_APIC; i++)
	     set_apicid_to_node(i, NUMA_NO_NODE)
     still left in numa_init. So it will just clear result from early_parse_srat.
     it should be moved before that....
   c.  it breaks ACPI_TABLE_OVERIDE...as the acpi table scan is moved
       early before override from INITRD is settled.

3. that patch TITLE is total misleading, there is NO x86 in the title,
   but it changes critical x86 code. It caused x86 guys did not
   pay attention to find the problem early. Those patches really should
   be routed via tip/x86/mm.

4. after that commit, following range can not use movable ram:
  a. real_mode code.... well..funny, legacy Node0 [0,1M) could be hot-removed?
  b. initrd... it will be freed after booting, so it could be on movable...
  c. crashkernel for kdump...: looks like we can not put kdump kernel above 4G
	anymore.
  d. init_mem_mapping: can not put page table high anymore.
  e. initmem_init: vmemmap can not be high local node anymore. That is
     not good.

If node is hotplugable, the mem related range like page table and
vmemmap could be on the that node without problem and should be on that
node.

We have workaround patch that could fix some problems, but some can not
be fixed.

So just remove that offending commit and related ones including:

 f7210e6c4a ("mm/memblock.c: use CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP to
    protect movablecore_map in memblock_overlaps_region().")

 01a178a94e ("acpi, memory-hotplug: support getting hotplug info from
    SRAT")

 27168d38fa ("acpi, memory-hotplug: extend movablemem_map ranges to
    the end of node")

 e8d1955258 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock is
    ready")

 fb06bc8e5f ("page_alloc: bootmem limit with movablecore_map")

 42f47e27e7 ("page_alloc: make movablemem_map have higher priority")

 6981ec3114 ("page_alloc: introduce zone_movable_limit[] to keep
    movable limit for nodes")

 34b71f1e04 ("page_alloc: add movable_memmap kernel parameter")

 4d59a75125 ("x86: get pg_data_t's memory from other node")

Later we should have patches that will make sure kernel put page table
and vmemmap on local node ram instead of push them down to node0.  Also
need to find way to put other kernel used ram to local node ram.

7d557b3cb6 slub: correctly bootstrap boot caches
After we create a boot cache, we may allocate from it until it is bootstraped.
This will move the page from the partial list to the cpu slab list. If this
happens, the loop:

	list_for_each_entry(p, &n->partial, lru)

that we use to scan for all partial pages will yield nothing, and the pages
will keep pointing to the boot cpu cache, which is of course, invalid. To do
that, we should flush the cache to make sure that the cpu slab is back to the
partial list.

b67bfe0d42 hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators
I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived

        list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)

The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:

        hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)

Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.

Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:

 - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
 - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
 - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
 was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
 - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
 properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

ff6a6da60b mm: accelerate munlock() treatment of THP pages
munlock_vma_pages_range() was always incrementing addresses by PAGE_SIZE
at a time.  When munlocking THP pages (or the huge zero page), this
resulted in taking the mm->page_table_lock 512 times in a row.

We can do better by making use of the page_mask returned by
follow_page_mask (for the huge zero page case), or the size of the page
munlock_vma_page() operated on (for the true THP page case).

0988496433 mm: do not grow the stack vma just because of an overrun on preceding vma
The stack vma is designed to grow automatically (marked with VM_GROWSUP
or VM_GROWSDOWN depending on architecture) when an access is made beyond
the existing boundary.  However, particularly if you have not limited
your stack at all ("ulimit -s unlimited"), this can cause the stack to
grow even if the access was really just one past *another* segment.

And that's wrong, especially since we first grow the segment, but then
immediately later enforce the stack guard page on the last page of the
segment.  So _despite_ first growing the stack segment as a result of
the access, the kernel will then make the access cause a SIGSEGV anyway!

So do the same logic as the guard page check does, and consider an
access to within one page of the next segment to be a bad access, rather
than growing the stack to abut the next segment.

Pull user namespace and namespace infrastructure changes from Eric W Biederman:
 "This set of changes starts with a few small enhnacements to the user
  namespace.  reboot support, allowing more arbitrary mappings, and
  support for mounting devpts, ramfs, tmpfs, and mqueuefs as just the
  user namespace root.

  I do my best to document that if you care about limiting your
  unprivileged users that when you have the user namespace support
  enabled you will need to enable memory control groups.

  There is a minor bug fix to prevent overflowing the stack if someone
  creates way too many user namespaces.

  The bulk of the changes are a continuation of the kuid/kgid push down
  work through the filesystems.  These changes make using uids and gids
  typesafe which ensures that these filesystems are safe to use when
  multiple user namespaces are in use.  The filesystems converted for
  3.9 are ceph, 9p, afs, ocfs2, gfs2, ncpfs, nfs, nfsd, and cifs.  The
  changes for these filesystems were a little more involved so I split
  the changes into smaller hopefully obviously correct changes.

  XFS is the only filesystem that remains.  I was hoping I could get
  that in this release so that user namespace support would be enabled
  with an allyesconfig or an allmodconfig but it looks like the xfs
  changes need another couple of days before it they are ready."

ef53d16cde ksm: allocate roots when needed
It is a pity to have MAX_NUMNODES+MAX_NUMNODES tree roots statically
allocated, particularly when very few users will ever actually tune
merge_across_nodes 0 to use more than 1+1 of those trees.  Not a big
deal (only 16kB wasted on each machine with CONFIG_MAXSMP), but a pity.

Start off with 1+1 statically allocated, then if merge_across_nodes is
ever tuned, allocate for nr_node_ids+nr_node_ids.  Do not attempt to
free up the extra if it's tuned back, that would be a waste of effort.

9e16b7fb1d mm,ksm: swapoff might need to copy
Before establishing that KSM page migration was the cause of my
WARN_ON_ONCE(page_mapped(page))s, I suspected that they came from the
lack of a ksm_might_need_to_copy() in swapoff's unuse_pte() - which in
many respects is equivalent to faulting in a page.

In fact I've never caught that as the cause: but in theory it does at
least need the KSM_RUN_UNMERGE check in ksm_might_need_to_copy(), to
avoid bringing a KSM page back in when it's not supposed to be.

I intended to copy how it's done in do_swap_page(), but have a strong
aversion to how "swapcache" ends up being used there: rework it with
"page != swapcache".

5117b3b835 mm,ksm: FOLL_MIGRATION do migration_entry_wait
In "ksm: remove old stable nodes more thoroughly" I said that I'd never
seen its WARN_ON_ONCE(page_mapped(page)).  True at the time of writing,
but it soon appeared once I tried fuller tests on the whole series.

It turned out to be due to the KSM page migration itself: unmerge_and_
remove_all_rmap_items() failed to locate and replace all the KSM pages,
because of that hiatus in page migration when old pte has been replaced
by migration entry, but not yet by new pte.  follow_page() finds no page
at that instant, but a KSM page reappears shortly after, without a
fault.

Add FOLL_MIGRATION flag, so follow_page() can do migration_entry_wait()
for KSM's break_cow().  I'd have preferred to avoid another flag, and do
it every time, in case someone else makes the same easy mistake; but did
not find another transgressor (the common get_user_pages() is of course
safe), and cannot be sure that every follow_page() caller is prepared to
sleep - ia64's xencomm_vtop()? Now, THP's wait_split_huge_page() can
already sleep there, since anon_vma locking was changed to mutex, but
maybe that's somehow excluded.

bc56620b49 ksm: shrink 32-bit rmap_item back to 32 bytes
Think of struct rmap_item as an extension of struct page (restricted to
MADV_MERGEABLE areas): there may be a lot of them, we need to keep them
small, especially on 32-bit architectures of limited lowmem.

Siting "int nid" after "unsigned int checksum" works nicely on 64-bit,
making no change to its 64-byte struct rmap_item; but bloats the 32-bit
struct rmap_item from (nicely cache-aligned) 32 bytes to 36 bytes, which
rounds up to 40 bytes once allocated from slab.  We'd better avoid that.

Hey, I only just remembered that the anon_vma pointer in struct
rmap_item has no purpose until the rmap_item is hung from a stable tree
node (which has its own nid field); and rmap_item's nid field no purpose
than to say which tree root to tell rb_erase() when unlinking from an
unstable tree.

Double them up in a union.  There's just one place where we set anon_vma
early (when we already hold mmap_sem): now we must remove tree_rmap_item
from its unstable tree there, before overwriting nid.  No need to
spatter BUG()s around: we'd be seeing oopses if this were wrong.

b599cbdf1c ksm: treat unstable nid like in stable tree
An inconsistency emerged in reviewing the NUMA node changes to KSM: when
meeting a page from the wrong NUMA node in a stable tree, we say that
it's okay for comparisons, but not as a leaf for merging; whereas when
meeting a page from the wrong NUMA node in an unstable tree, we bail out
immediately.

Now, it might be that a wrong NUMA node in an unstable tree is more
likely to correlate with instablility (different content, with rbnode
now misplaced) than page migration; but even so, we are accustomed to
instablility in the unstable tree.

Without strong evidence for which strategy is generally better, I'd
rather be consistent with what's done in the stable tree: accept a page
from the wrong NUMA node for comparison, but not as a leaf for merging.

49cd0a5c29 tmpfs: fix mempolicy object leaks
Fix several mempolicy leaks in the tmpfs mount logic.  These leaks are
slow - on the order of one object leaked per mount attempt.

Leak 1 (umount doesn't free mpol allocated in mount):
    while true; do
        mount -t tmpfs -o mpol=interleave,size=100M nodev /mnt
        umount /mnt
    done

Leak 2 (errors parsing remount options will leak mpol):
    mount -t tmpfs -o size=100M nodev /mnt
    while true; do
        mount -o remount,mpol=interleave,size=x /mnt 2> /dev/null
    done
    umount /mnt

Leak 3 (multiple mpol per mount leak mpol):
    while true; do
        mount -t tmpfs -o mpol=interleave,mpol=interleave,size=100M nodev /mnt
        umount /mnt
    done

This patch fixes all of the above.  I could have broken the patch into
three pieces but is seemed easier to review as one.

5f00110f72 tmpfs: fix use-after-free of mempolicy object
The tmpfs remount logic preserves filesystem mempolicy if the mpol=M
option is not specified in the remount request.  A new policy can be
specified if mpol=M is given.

Before this patch remounting an mpol bound tmpfs without specifying
mpol= mount option in the remount request would set the filesystem's
mempolicy object to a freed mempolicy object.

To reproduce the problem boot a DEBUG_PAGEALLOC kernel and run:
    # mkdir /tmp/x

    # mount -t tmpfs -o size=100M,mpol=interleave nodev /tmp/x

    # grep /tmp/x /proc/mounts
    nodev /tmp/x tmpfs rw,relatime,size=102400k,mpol=interleave:0-3 0 0

    # mount -o remount,size=200M nodev /tmp/x

    # grep /tmp/x /proc/mounts
    nodev /tmp/x tmpfs rw,relatime,size=204800k,mpol=??? 0 0
        # note ? garbage in mpol=... output above

    # dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/x/f count=1
        # panic here

Panic:
    BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at           (null)
    IP: [<          (null)>]           (null)
    [...]
    Oops: 0010 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC
    Call Trace:

      cstar_dispatch+0x7/0x1f

Non-debug kernels will not crash immediately because referencing the
dangling mpol will not cause a fault.  Instead the filesystem will
reference a freed mempolicy object, which will cause unpredictable
behavior.

The problem boils down to a dropped mpol reference below if
shmem_parse_options() does not allocate a new mpol:

    config = *sbinfo
    shmem_parse_options(data, &config, true)
    mpol_put(sbinfo->mpol)
    sbinfo->mpol = config.mpol  /* BUG: saves unreferenced mpol */

This patch avoids the crash by not releasing the mempolicy if
shmem_parse_options() doesn't create a new mpol.

How far back does this issue go? I see it in both 2.6.36 and 3.3.  I did
not look back further.

67d46b296a mm/fadvise.c: drain all pagevecs if POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED fails to discard all pages
Rob van der Heij reported the following (paraphrased) on private mail.

	The scenario is that I want to avoid backups to fill up the page
	cache and purge stuff that is more likely to be used again (this is
	with s390x Linux on z/VM, so I don't give it as much memory that
	we don't care anymore). So I have something with LD_PRELOAD that
	intercepts the close() call (from tar, in this case) and issues
	a posix_fadvise() just before closing the file.

	This mostly works, except for small files (less than 14 pages)
	that remains in page cache after the face.

Unfortunately Rob has not had a chance to test this exact patch but the
test program below should be reproducing the problem he described.

The issue is the per-cpu pagevecs for LRU additions.  If the pages are
added by one CPU but fadvise() is called on another then the pages
remain resident as the invalidate_mapping_pages() only drains the local
pagevecs via its call to pagevec_release().  The user-visible effect is
that a program that uses fadvise() properly is not obeyed.

A possible fix for this is to put the necessary smarts into
invalidate_mapping_pages() to globally drain the LRU pagevecs if a
pagevec page could not be discarded.  The downside with this is that an
inode cache shrink would send a global IPI and memory pressure
potentially causing global IPI storms is very undesirable.

Instead, this patch adds a check during fadvise(POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED) to
check if invalidate_mapping_pages() discarded all the requested pages.
If a subset of pages are discarded it drains the LRU pagevecs and tries
again.  If the second attempt fails, it assumes it is due to the pages
being mapped, locked or dirty and does not care.  With this patch, an
application using fadvise() correctly will be obeyed but there is a
downside that a malicious application can force the kernel to send
global IPIs and increase overhead.

If accepted, I would like this to be considered as a -stable candidate.
It's not an urgent issue but it's a system call that is not working as
advertised which is weak.

The following test program demonstrates the problem.  It should never
report that pages are still resident but will without this patch.  It
assumes that CPU 0 and 1 exist.

int main() {
	int fd;
	int pagesize = getpagesize();
	ssize_t written = 0, expected;

	vec = malloc(FILESIZE_PAGES);
	if (vec == NULL) {
		printf("ENOMEM\n");
		exit(EXIT_FAILURE);

	CPU_ZERO(&set);
	CPU_SET(0, &set);
	if (sched_setaffinity(getpid(), sizeof(set), &set) == -1) {
		perror("sched_setaffinity");
		exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
	}

	/* open file, unlink and write buffer */
	fd = open("fadvise-test-file", O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_RDWR);
	if (fd == -1) {
		perror("open");
		exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
	}
	unlink("fadvise-test-file");
	while (written < expected) {
		ssize_t this_write;
		this_write = write(fd, buf + written, expected - written);

		if (this_write == -1) {
			perror("write");
			exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
		}

		written += this_write;
	}
	free(buf);

	/*
	 * Force ourselves to another CPU. If fadvise only flushes the local
	 * CPUs pagevecs then the fadvise will fail to discard all file pages

	if (sched_setaffinity(getpid(), sizeof(set), &set) == -1) {
		perror("sched_setaffinity");
		exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
	}

	/* sync and fadvise to discard the page cache */
	fsync(fd);
	if (posix_fadvise(fd, 0, expected, POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED) == -1) {
		perror("posix_fadvise");
		exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
	}

	/* map the file and use mincore to see which parts of it are resident */

		exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
	}

	/* Check residency */
	for (i = 0, resident = 0; i < FILESIZE_PAGES; i++) {
		if (vec[i])
			resident++;
	}
	if (resident != 0) {
		printf("Nr unexpected pages resident: %d\n", resident);
		exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
	}

	munmap(buf, expected);
	close(fd);
	free(vec);
	exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);

fa794199e3 mm: export mmu notifier invalidates
We at SGI have a need to address some very high physical address ranges
with our GRU (global reference unit), sometimes across partitioned
machine boundaries and sometimes with larger addresses than the cpu
supports.  We do this with the aid of our own 'extended vma' module
which mimics the vma.  When something (either unmap or exit) frees an
'extended vma' we use the mmu notifiers to clean them up.

We had been able to mimic the functions
__mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start() and
__mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end() by locking the per-mm lock and
walking the per-mm notifier list.  But with the change to a global srcu
lock (static in mmu_notifier.c) we can no longer do that.  Our module has
no access to that lock.

So we request that these two functions be exported.

240aadeedc mm: accelerate mm_populate() treatment of THP pages
This change adds a follow_page_mask function which is equivalent to
follow_page, but with an extra page_mask argument.

follow_page_mask sets *page_mask to HPAGE_PMD_NR - 1 when it encounters
a THP page, and to 0 in other cases.

__get_user_pages() makes use of this in order to accelerate populating
THP ranges - that is, when both the pages and vmas arrays are NULL, we
don't need to iterate HPAGE_PMD_NR times to cover a single THP page (and
we also avoid taking mm->page_table_lock that many times).

5f4b9fc5c1 HWPOISON: change order of error_states[]'s elements
error_states[] has two separate states "unevictable LRU page" and
"mlocked LRU page", and the former one has the higher priority now.  But
because of that the latter one is rarely chosen because pages with
PageMlocked highly likely have PG_unevictable set.  On the other hand,
PG_unevictable without PageMlocked is common for ramfs or SHM_LOCKed
shared memory, so reversing the priority of these two states helps us
clearly distinguish them.

524fca1e73 HWPOISON: fix misjudgement of page_action() for errors on mlocked pages
memory_failure() can't handle memory errors on mlocked pages correctly,
because page_action() judges such errors as ones on "unknown pages"
instead of ones on "unevictable LRU page" or "mlocked LRU page".  In
order to determine page_state page_action() checks page flags at the
timing of the judgement, but such page flags are not the same with those
just after memory_failure() is called, because memory_failure() does
unmapping of the error pages before doing page_action().  This unmapping
changes the page state, especially page_remove_rmap() (called from
try_to_unmap_one()) clears PG_mlocked, so page_action() can't catch
mlocked pages after that.

With this patch, we store the page flag of the error page before doing
unmap, and (only) if the first check with page flags at the time decided
the error page is unknown, we do the second check with the stored page
flag.  This implementation doesn't change error handling for the page
types for which the first check can determine the page state correctly.

0e50ce3b50 mm: use up free swap space before reaching OOM kill
Recently, Luigi reported there are lots of free swap space when OOM
happens.  It's easily reproduced on zram-over-swap, where many instance
of memory hogs are running and laptop_mode is enabled.  He said there
was no problem when he disabled laptop_mode.  The problem when I
investigate problem is following as.

Assumption for easy explanation: There are no page cache page in system
because they all are already reclaimed.

1. try_to_free_pages disable may_writepage when laptop_mode is enabled.
2. shrink_inactive_list isolates victim pages from inactive anon lru list.
3. shrink_page_list adds them to swapcache via add_to_swap but it doesn't
   pageout because sc->may_writepage is 0 so the page is rotated back into
   inactive anon lru list. The add_to_swap made the page Dirty by SetPageDirty.
4. 3 couldn't reclaim any pages so do_try_to_free_pages increase priority and
   retry reclaim with higher priority.
5. shrink_inactlive_list try to isolate victim pages from inactive anon lru list
   but got failed because it try to isolate pages with ISOLATE_CLEAN mode but
   inactive anon lru list is full of dirty pages by 3 so it just returns
   without  any reclaim progress.
6. do_try_to_free_pages doesn't set may_writepage due to zero total_scanned.
   Because sc->nr_scanned is increased by shrink_page_list but we don't call
   shrink_page_list in 5 due to short of isolated pages.

Above loop is continued until OOM happens.

The problem didn't happen before [1] was merged because old logic's
isolatation in shrink_inactive_list was successful and tried to call
shrink_page_list to pageout them but it still ends up failed to page out
by may_writepage.  But important point is that sc->nr_scanned was
increased although we couldn't swap out them so do_try_to_free_pages
could set may_writepages.

Since commit f80c067361 ("mm: zone_reclaim: make isolate_lru_page()
filter-aware") was introduced, it's not a good idea any more to depends
on only the number of scanned pages for setting may_writepage.  So this
patch adds new trigger point of setting may_writepage as below
DEF_PRIOIRTY - 2 which is used to show the significant memory pressure
in VM so it's good fit for our purpose which would be better to lose
power saving or clickety rather than OOM killing.

Note that in compaction.c I avoid calling zone_end_pfn() repeatedly

4805b02e90 mm/mlock.c: document scary-looking stack expansion mlock chain
The fact that mlock calls get_user_pages, and get_user_pages might call
mlock when expanding a stack looks like a potential recursion.

However, mlock makes sure the requested range is already contained
within a vma, so no stack expansion will actually happen from mlock.

Should this ever change: the stack expansion mlocks only the newly
expanded range and so will not result in recursive expansion.

ef4d43a807 ksm: stop hotremove lockdep warning
Complaints are rare, but lockdep still does not understand the way
ksm_memory_callback(MEM_GOING_OFFLINE) takes ksm_thread_mutex, and holds
it until the ksm_memory_callback(MEM_OFFLINE): that appears to be a
problem because notifier callbacks are made under down_read of
blocking_notifier_head->rwsem (so first the mutex is taken while holding
the rwsem, then later the rwsem is taken while still holding the mutex);
but is not in fact a problem because mem_hotplug_mutex is held
throughout the dance.

There was an attempt to fix this with mutex_lock_nested(); but if that
happened to fool lockdep two years ago, apparently it does so no longer.

I had hoped to eradicate this issue in extending KSM page migration not
to need the ksm_thread_mutex.  But then realized that although the page
migration itself is safe, we do still need to lock out ksmd and other
users of get_ksm_page() while offlining memory - at some point between
MEM_GOING_OFFLINE and MEM_OFFLINE, the struct pages themselves may
vanish, and get_ksm_page()'s accesses to them become a violation.

So, give up on holding ksm_thread_mutex itself from MEM_GOING_OFFLINE to
MEM_OFFLINE, and add a KSM_RUN_OFFLINE flag, and wait_while_offlining()
checks, to achieve the same lockout without being caught by lockdep.
This is less elegant for KSM, but it's more important to keep lockdep
useful to other users - and I apologize for how long it took to fix.

b79bc0a0c7 ksm: enable KSM page migration
Migration of KSM pages is now safe: remove the PageKsm restrictions from
mempolicy.c and migrate.c.

But keep PageKsm out of __unmap_and_move()'s anon_vma contortions, which
are irrelevant to KSM: it looks as if that code was preventing hotremove
migration of KSM pages, unless they happened to be in swapcache.

There is some question as to whether enforcing a NUMA mempolicy migration
ought to migrate KSM pages, mapped into entirely unrelated processes; but
moving page_mapcount > 1 is only permitted with MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL anyway,
and it seems reasonable to assume that you wouldn't set MADV_MERGEABLE on
any area where this is a worry.

4146d2d673 ksm: make !merge_across_nodes migration safe
The new KSM NUMA merge_across_nodes knob introduces a problem, when it's
set to non-default 0: if a KSM page is migrated to a different NUMA node,
how do we migrate its stable node to the right tree?  And what if that
collides with an existing stable node?

ksm_migrate_page() can do no more than it's already doing, updating
stable_node->kpfn: the stable tree itself cannot be manipulated without
holding ksm_thread_mutex.  So accept that a stable tree may temporarily
indicate a page belonging to the wrong NUMA node, leave updating until the
next pass of ksmd, just be careful not to merge other pages on to a
misplaced page.  Note nid of holding tree in stable_node, and recognize
that it will not always match nid of kpfn.

A misplaced KSM page is discovered, either when ksm_do_scan() next comes
around to one of its rmap_items (we now have to go to cmp_and_merge_page
even on pages in a stable tree), or when stable_tree_search() arrives at a
matching node for another page, and this node page is found misplaced.

In each case, move the misplaced stable_node to a list of migrate_nodes
(and use the address of migrate_nodes as magic by which to identify them):
we don't need them in a tree.  If stable_tree_search() finds no match for
a page, but it's currently exiled to this list, then slot its stable_node
right there into the tree, bringing all of its mappings with it; otherwise
they get migrated one by one to the original page of the colliding node.
stable_tree_search() is now modelled more like stable_tree_insert(), in
order to handle these insertions of migrated nodes.

remove_node_from_stable_tree(), remove_all_stable_nodes() and
ksm_check_stable_tree() have to handle the migrate_nodes list as well as
the stable tree itself.  Less obviously, we do need to prune the list of
stale entries from time to time (scan_get_next_rmap_item() does it once
each full scan): whereas stale nodes in the stable tree get naturally
pruned as searches try to brush past them, these migrate_nodes may get
forgotten and accumulate.

c8d6553b95 ksm: make KSM page migration possible
KSM page migration is already supported in the case of memory hotremove,
which takes the ksm_thread_mutex across all its migrations to keep life
simple.

But the new KSM NUMA merge_across_nodes knob introduces a problem, when
it's set to non-default 0: if a KSM page is migrated to a different NUMA
node, how do we migrate its stable node to the right tree?  And what if
that collides with an existing stable node?

So far there's no provision for that, and this patch does not attempt to
deal with it either.  But how will I test a solution, when I don't know
how to hotremove memory?  The best answer is to enable KSM page migration
in all cases now, and test more common cases.  With THP and compaction
added since KSM came in, page migration is now mainstream, and it's a
shame that a KSM page can frustrate freeing a page block.

Without worrying about merge_across_nodes 0 for now, this patch gets KSM
page migration working reliably for default merge_across_nodes 1 (but
leave the patch enabling it until near the end of the series).

It's much simpler than I'd originally imagined, and does not require an
additional tier of locking: page migration relies on the page lock, KSM
page reclaim relies on the page lock, the page lock is enough for KSM page
migration too.

Almost all the care has to be in get_ksm_page(): that's the function which
worries about when a stable node is stale and should be freed, now it also
has to worry about the KSM page being migrated.

The only new overhead is an additional put/get/lock/unlock_page when
stable_tree_search() arrives at a matching node: to make sure migration
respects the raised page count, and so does not migrate the page while
we're busy with it here.  That's probably avoidable, either by changing
internal interfaces from using kpage to stable_node, or by moving the
ksm_migrate_page() callsite into a page_freeze_refs() section (even if not
swapcache); but this works well, I've no urge to pull it apart now.

(Descents of the stable tree may pass through nodes whose KSM pages are
under migration: being unlocked, the raised page count does not prevent
that, nor need it: it's safe to memcmp against either old or new page.)

You might worry about mremap, and whether page migration's rmap_walk to
remove migration entries will find all the KSM locations where it inserted
earlier: that should already be handled, by the satisfyingly heavy hammer
of move_vma()'s call to ksm_madvise(,,,MADV_UNMERGEABLE,).

cbf86cfe04 ksm: remove old stable nodes more thoroughly
Switching merge_across_nodes after running KSM is liable to oops on stale
nodes still left over from the previous stable tree.  It's not something
that people will often want to do, but it would be lame to demand a reboot
when they're trying to determine which merge_across_nodes setting is best.

How can this happen?  We only permit switching merge_across_nodes when
pages_shared is 0, and usually set run 2 to force that beforehand, which
ought to unmerge everything: yet oopses still occur when you then run 1.

Three causes:

1. The old stable tree (built according to the inverse
   merge_across_nodes) has not been fully torn down.  A stable node
   lingers until get_ksm_page() notices that the page it references no
   longer references it: but the page is not necessarily freed as soon as
   expected, particularly when swapcache.

   Fix this with a pass through the old stable tree, applying
   get_ksm_page() to each of the remaining nodes (most found stale and
   removed immediately), with forced removal of any left over.  Unless the
   page is still mapped: I've not seen that case, it shouldn't occur, but
   better to WARN_ON_ONCE and EBUSY than BUG.

2. __ksm_enter() has a nice little optimization, to insert the new mm
   just behind ksmd's cursor, so there's a full pass for it to stabilize
   (or be removed) before ksmd addresses it.  Nice when ksmd is running,
   but not so nice when we're trying to unmerge all mms: we were missing
   those mms forked and inserted behind the unmerge cursor.  Easily fixed
   by inserting at the end when KSM_RUN_UNMERGE.

3.  It is possible for a KSM page to be faulted back from swapcache
   into an mm, just after unmerge_and_remove_all_rmap_items() scanned past
   it.  Fix this by copying on fault when KSM_RUN_UNMERGE: but that is
   private to ksm.c, so dissolve the distinction between
   ksm_might_need_to_copy() and ksm_does_need_to_copy(), doing it all in
   the one call into ksm.c.

A long outstanding, unrelated bugfix sneaks in with that third fix:
ksm_does_need_to_copy() would copy from a !PageUptodate page (implying I/O
error when read in from swap) to a page which it then marks Uptodate.  Fix
this case by not copying, letting do_swap_page() discover the error.

8aafa6a485 ksm: get_ksm_page locked
In some places where get_ksm_page() is used, we need the page to be locked.

When KSM migration is fully enabled, we shall want that to make sure that
the page just acquired cannot be migrated beneath us (raised page count is
only effective when there is serialization to make sure migration
notices).  Whereas when navigating through the stable tree, we certainly
do not want to lock each node (raised page count is enough to guarantee
the memcmps, even if page is migrated to another node).

Since we're about to add another use case, add the locked argument to
get_ksm_page() now.

Hmm, what's that rcu_read_lock() about?  Complete misunderstanding, I
really got the wrong end of the stick on that!  There's a configuration in
which page_cache_get_speculative() can do something cheaper than
get_page_unless_zero(), relying on its caller's rcu_read_lock() to have
disabled preemption for it.  There's no need for rcu_read_lock() around
get_page_unless_zero() (and mapping checks) here.  Cut out that silliness
before making this any harder to understand.

Here's a KSM series, based on mmotm 2013-01-23-17-04: starting with
Petr's v7 "KSM: numa awareness sysfs knob"; then fixing the two issues
we had with that, fully enabling KSM page migration on the way.

(A different kind of KSM/NUMA issue which I've certainly not begun to
address here: when KSM pages are unmerged, there's usually no sense in
preferring to allocate the new pages local to the caller's node.)

This patch:

Introduces new sysfs boolean knob /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/merge_across_nodes
which control merging pages across different numa nodes.  When it is set
to zero only pages from the same node are merged, otherwise pages from
all nodes can be merged together (default behavior).

Typical use-case could be a lot of KVM guests on NUMA machine and cpus
from more distant nodes would have significant increase of access
latency to the merged ksm page.  Sysfs knob was choosen for higher
variability when some users still prefers higher amount of saved
physical memory regardless of access latency.

Every numa node has its own stable & unstable trees because of faster
searching and inserting.  Changing of merge_across_nodes value is
possible only when there are not any ksm shared pages in system.

I've tested this patch on numa machines with 2, 4 and 8 nodes and
measured speed of memory access inside of KVM guests with memory pinned
to one of nodes with this benchmark:

  http://pholasek.fedorapeople.org/alloc_pg.c

Population standard deviations of access times in percentage of average
were following:

merge_across_nodes=1
2 nodes 1.4%
4 nodes 1.6%
8 nodes	1.7%

merge_across_nodes=0
2 nodes	1%
4 nodes	0.32%
8 nodes	0.018%

Hugh notes that this patch brings two problems, whose solution needs
further support in mm/ksm.c, which follows in subsequent patches:

1) switching merge_across_nodes after running KSM is liable to oops
   on stale nodes still left over from the previous stable tree;

2) memory hotremove may migrate KSM pages, but there is no provision
   here for !merge_across_nodes to migrate nodes to the proper tree.

22b751c3d0 mm: rename page struct field helpers
The function names page_xchg_last_nid(), page_last_nid() and
reset_page_last_nid() were judged to be inconsistent so rename them to a
struct_field_op style pattern.  As it looked jarring to have
reset_page_mapcount() and page_nid_reset_last() beside each other in
memmap_init_zone(), this patch also renames reset_page_mapcount() to
page_mapcount_reset().  There are others like init_page_count() but as
it is used throughout the arch code a rename would likely cause more
conflicts than it is worth.

We were deferring the kmemcg static branch increment to a later time,
due to a nasty dependency between the cpu_hotplug lock, taken by the

Now we no longer take the cgroup lock, and we can save ourselves the

0999821b1d memcg: replace cgroup_lock with memcg specific memcg_lock
After the preparation work done in earlier patches, the cgroup_lock can
be trivially replaced with a memcg-specific lock.  This is an automatic
translation at every site where the values involved were queried.

The sites where values are written, however, used to be naturally called
under cgroup_lock.  This is the case for instance in the css_online
callback.  For those, we now need to explicitly add the memcg lock.

With this, all the calls to cgroup_lock outside cgroup core are gone.

b5f99b537d memcg: fast hierarchy-aware child test
Currently, we use cgroups' provided list of children to verify if it is
safe to proceed with any value change that is dependent on the cgroup
being empty.

This is less than ideal, because it enforces a dependency over cgroup
core that we would be better off without.  The solution proposed here is
to iterate over the child cgroups and if any is found that is already
online, we bounce and return: we don't really care how many children we
have, only if we have any.

This is also made to be hierarchy aware.  IOW, cgroups with hierarchy
disabled, while they still exist, will be considered for the purpose of
this interface as having no children.

d142e3e667 memcg: split part of memcg creation to css_online
This patch is a preparatory work for later locking rework to get rid of
big cgroup lock from memory controller code.

The memory controller uses some tunables to adjust its operation.  Those
tunables are inherited from parent to children upon children
intialization.  For most of them, the value cannot be changed after the
parent has a new children.

cgroup core splits initialization in two phases: css_alloc and css_online.
After css_alloc, the memory allocation and basic initialization are done.
But the new group is not yet visible anywhere, not even for cgroup core
code.  It is only somewhere between css_alloc and css_online that it is
inserted into the internal children lists.  Copying tunable values in
css_alloc will lead to inconsistent values: the children will copy the old
parent values, that can change between the copy and the moment in which
the groups is linked to any data structure that can indicate the presence
of children.

ee5e8472b8 memcg: prevent changes to move_charge_at_immigrate during task attach
In memcg, we use the cgroup_lock basically to synchronize against
attaching new children to a cgroup.  We do this because we rely on
cgroup core to provide us with this information.

We need to guarantee that upon child creation, our tunables are
consistent.  For those, the calls to cgroup_lock() all live in handlers
like mem_cgroup_hierarchy_write(), where we change a tunable in the
group that is hierarchy-related.  For instance, the use_hierarchy flag
cannot be changed if the cgroup already have children.

Furthermore, those values are propagated from the parent to the child
when a new child is created.  So if we don't lock like this, we can end
up with the following situation:

A                                   B
 memcg_css_alloc()                       mem_cgroup_hierarchy_write()
 copy use hierarchy from parent          change use hierarchy in parent
 finish creation.

This is mainly because during create, we are still not fully connected
to the css tree.  So all iterators and the such that we could use, will
fail to show that the group has children.

My observation is that all of creation can proceed in parallel with
those tasks, except value assignment.  So what this patch series does is
to first move all value assignment that is dependent on parent values
from css_alloc to css_online, where the iterators all work, and then we
lock only the value assignment.  This will guarantee that parent and
children always have consistent values.  Together with an online test,
that can be derived from the observation that the refcount of an online
memcg can be made to be always positive, we should be able to
synchronize our side without the cgroup lock.

This patch:

Currently, we rely on the cgroup_lock() to prevent changes to
move_charge_at_immigrate during task migration.  However, this is only
needed because the current strategy keeps checking this value throughout
the whole process.  Since all we need is serialization, one needs only
to guarantee that whatever decision we made in the beginning of a
specific migration is respected throughout the process.

We can achieve this by just saving it in mc.  By doing this, no kind of
locking is needed.

45cf7ebd5a memcg: reduce the size of struct memcg 244-fold.
In order to maintain all the memcg bookkeeping, we need per-node
descriptors, which will in turn contain a per-zone descriptor.

Because we want to statically allocate those, this array ends up being
very big.  Part of the reason is that we allocate something large enough
to hold MAX_NUMNODES, the compile time constant that holds the maximum
number of nodes we would ever consider.

However, we can do better in some cases if the firmware help us.  This
is true for modern x86 machines; coincidentally one of the architectures
in which MAX_NUMNODES tends to be very big.

By using the firmware-provided maximum number of nodes instead of
MAX_NUMNODES, we can reduce the memory footprint of struct memcg
considerably.  In the extreme case in which we have only one node, this
reduces the size of the structure from ~ 64k to ~2k.  This is
particularly important because it means that we will no longer resort to
the vmalloc area for the struct memcg on defconfigs.  We also have
enough room for an extra node and still be outside vmalloc.

One also has to keep in mind that with the industry's ability to fit
more processors in a die as fast as the FED prints money, a nodes = 2
configuration is already respectably big.

4468b8f1e2 mm: uninline page_xchg_last_nid()
Andrew Morton pointed out that page_xchg_last_nid() and
reset_page_last_nid() were "getting nuttily large" and asked that it be
investigated.

reset_page_last_nid() is on the page free path and it would be
unfortunate to make that path more expensive than it needs to be.  Due
to the internal use of page_xchg_last_nid() it is already too expensive
but fortunately, it should also be impossible for the page->flags to be
updated in parallel when we call reset_page_last_nid().  Instead of
unlining the function, it uses a simplier implementation that assumes no
parallel updates and should now be sufficiently short for inlining.

page_xchg_last_nid() is called in paths that are already quite expensive
(splitting huge page, fault handling, migration) and it is reasonable to
uninline.  There was not really a good place to place the function but
mm/mmzone.c was the closest fit IMO.

This patch saved 128 bytes of text in the vmlinux file for the kernel

6acc8b0251 memcg: clean up swap accounting initialization code
Memcg swap accounting is currently enabled by enable_swap_cgroup when
the root cgroup is created.  mem_cgroup_init acts as a memcg subsystem
initializer which sounds like a much better place for enable_swap_cgroup
as well.  We already register memsw files from there so it makes a lot
of sense to merge those two into a single enable_swap_cgroup function.

This patch doesn't introduce any semantic changes.

2d11085e40 memcg: do not create memsw files if swap accounting is disabled
Zhouping Liu has reported that memsw files are exported even though swap
accounting is runtime disabled if MEMCG_SWAP is enabled.  This behavior
has been introduced by commit af36f906c0 ("memcg: always create memsw
files if CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP") and it causes any attempt to open
the file to return EOPNOTSUPP.  Although EOPNOTSUPP should say be clear
that memsw operations are not supported in the given configuration it is
fair to say that this behavior could be quite confusing.

Let's tear memsw files out of default cgroup files and add them only if
the swap accounting is really enabled (either by MEMCG_SWAP_ENABLED or
swapaccount=1 boot parameter).  We can hook into mem_cgroup_init which
is called when the memcg subsystem is initialized and which happens
after boot command line is processed.

ec8acf20af swap: add per-partition lock for swapfile
swap_lock is heavily contended when I test swap to 3 fast SSD (even
slightly slower than swap to 2 such SSD).  The main contention comes
from swap_info_get().  This patch tries to fix the gap with adding a new
per-partition lock.

Global data like nr_swapfiles, total_swap_pages, least_priority and
swap_list are still protected by swap_lock.

nr_swap_pages is an atomic now, it can be changed without swap_lock.  In
theory, it's possible get_swap_page() finds no swap pages but actually
there are free swap pages.  But sounds not a big problem.

Accessing partition specific data (like scan_swap_map and so on) is only
protected by swap_info_struct.lock.

Changing swap_info_struct.flags need hold swap_lock and
swap_info_struct.lock, because scan_scan_map() will check it.  read the
flags is ok with either the locks hold.

If both swap_lock and swap_info_struct.lock must be hold, we always hold
the former first to avoid deadlock.

swap_entry_free() can change swap_list.  To delete that code, we add a
new highest_priority_index.  Whenever get_swap_page() is called, we
check it.  If it's valid, we use it.

It's a pity get_swap_page() still holds swap_lock().  But in practice,
swap_lock() isn't heavily contended in my test with this patch (or I can
say there are other much more heavier bottlenecks like TLB flush).  And
BTW, looks get_swap_page() doesn't really need the lock.  We never free
swap_info[] and we check SWAP_WRITEOK flag.  The only risk without the
lock is we could swapout to some low priority swap, but we can quickly
recover after several rounds of swap, so sounds not a big deal to me.
But I'd prefer to fix this if it's a real problem.

"swap: make each swap partition have one address_space" improved the
swapout speed from 1.7G/s to 2G/s.  This patch further improves the
speed to 2.3G/s, so around 15% improvement.  It's a multi-process test,
so TLB flush isn't the biggest bottleneck before the patches.

heavily contended.  This makes each swap partition have one

In my test with 3 SSD, this increases the swapout throughput 20%.

340ef3902c mm: numa: cleanup flow of transhuge page migration
When correcting commit 04fa5d6a65 ("mm: migrate: check page_count of
THP before migrating") Hugh Dickins noted that the control flow for
transhuge migration was difficult to follow.  Unconditionally calling
put_page() in numamigrate_isolate_page() made the failure paths of both
migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() and migrate_misplaced_page() more
complex that they should be.  Further, he was extremely wary that an
unlock_page() should ever happen after a put_page() even if the
put_page() should never be the final put_page.

Hugh implemented the following cleanup to simplify the path by calling
putback_lru_page() inside numamigrate_isolate_page() if it failed to
isolate and always calling unlock_page() within
migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page().

There is no functional change after this patch is applied but the code
is easier to follow and unlock_page() always happens before put_page().

NUMA configuration with NUMA Balancing will still need an extra page

the warning if we grow enough 64bit only page-flags to push the last-cpu

3abef4e6c2 mm: numa: take THP into account when migrating pages for NUMA balancing
Wanpeng Li pointed out that numamigrate_isolate_page() assumes that only
one base page is being migrated when in fact it can also be checking
THP.

The consequences are that a migration will be attempted when a target
node is nearly full and fail later.  It's unlikely to be user-visible
but it should be fixed.  While we are there, migrate_balanced_pgdat()
should treat nr_migrate_pages as an unsigned long as it is treated as a
watermark.

21caf2fc19 mm: teach mm by current context info to not do I/O during memory allocation
This patch introduces PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO on process flag('flags' field of
'struct task_struct'), so that the flag can be set by one task to avoid
doing I/O inside memory allocation in the task's context.

The patch trys to solve one deadlock problem caused by block device, and
the problem may happen at least in the below situations:

- during block device runtime resume, if memory allocation with
  GFP_KERNEL is called inside runtime resume callback of any one of its
  ancestors(or the block device itself), the deadlock may be triggered
  inside the memory allocation since it might not complete until the block
  device becomes active and the involed page I/O finishes.  The situation
  is pointed out first by Alan Stern.  It is not a good approach to
  convert all GFP_KERNEL[1] in the path into GFP_NOIO because several
  subsystems may be involved(for example, PCI, USB and SCSI may be
  involved for usb mass stoarage device, network devices involved too in
  the iSCSI case)

- during block device runtime suspend, because runtime resume need to
  wait for completion of concurrent runtime suspend.

- during error handling of usb mass storage deivce, USB bus reset will
  be put on the device, so there shouldn't have any memory allocation with
  GFP_KERNEL during USB bus reset, otherwise the deadlock similar with
  above may be triggered.  Unfortunately, any usb device may include one
  mass storage interface in theory, so it requires all usb interface
  drivers to handle the situation.  In fact, most usb drivers don't know
  how to handle bus reset on the device and don't provide .pre_set() and
  .post_reset() callback at all, so USB core has to unbind and bind driver
  for these devices.  So it is still not practical to resort to GFP_NOIO
  for solving the problem.

Also the introduced solution can be used by block subsystem or block
drivers too, for example, set the PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO flag before doing
actual I/O transfer.

It is not a good idea to convert all these GFP_KERNEL in the affected
path into GFP_NOIO because these functions doing that may be implemented
as library and will be called in many other contexts.

In fact, memalloc_noio_flags() can convert some of current static
GFP_NOIO allocation into GFP_KERNEL back in other non-affected contexts,
at least almost all GFP_NOIO in USB subsystem can be converted into
GFP_KERNEL after applying the approach and make allocation with GFP_NOIO
only happen in runtime resume/bus reset/block I/O transfer contexts
generally.

[1], several GFP_KERNEL allocation examples in runtime resume path

- pci subsystem
acpi_os_allocate
	<-acpi_ut_allocate
		<-ACPI_ALLOCATE_ZEROED
			<-acpi_evaluate_object
				<-__acpi_bus_set_power
					<-acpi_bus_set_power
						<-acpi_pci_set_power_state
							<-platform_pci_set_power_state
								<-pci_platform_power_transition
									<-__pci_complete_power_transition
										<-pci_set_power_state
											<-pci_restore_standard_config
												<-pci_pm_runtime_resume
- usb subsystem
usb_get_status
	<-finish_port_resume
		<-usb_port_resume
			<-generic_resume
				<-usb_resume_device
					<-usb_resume_both
						<-usb_runtime_resume

- some individual usb drivers
usblp, uvc, gspca, most of dvb-usb-v2 media drivers, cpia2, az6007, ....

That is just what I have found.  Unfortunately, this allocation can only
be found by human being now, and there should be many not found since
any function in the resume path(call tree) may allocate memory with
GFP_KERNEL.

From: Zlatko Calusic <zlatko.calusic@iskon.hr>

Commit 92df3a723f ("mm: vmscan: throttle reclaim if encountering too
many dirty pages under writeback") introduced waiting on congested zones
based on a sane algorithm in shrink_inactive_list().

What this means is that there's no more need for throttling and
additional heuristics in balance_pgdat().  So, let's remove it and tidy
up the code.

af8fae7c08 mm/memory-failure.c: clean up soft_offline_page()
Currently soft_offline_page() is hard to maintain because it has many
return points and goto statements.  All of this mess come from
get_any_page().

This function should only get page refcount as the name implies, but it
does some page isolating actions like SetPageHWPoison() and dequeuing
hugepage.  This patch corrects it and introduces some internal
subroutines to make soft offlining code more readable and maintainable.

0ebff32c36 memory-failure: fix an error of mce_bad_pages statistics
When doing

    $ echo paddr > /sys/devices/system/memory/soft_offline_page

to offline a *free* page, the value of mce_bad_pages will be added, and
the page is set HWPoison flag, but it is still managed by page buddy
alocator.

   $ cat /proc/meminfo | grep HardwareCorrupted

shows the value.

If we offline the same page, the value of mce_bad_pages will be added
*again*, this means the value is incorrect now.  Assume the page is
still free during this short time.

    get_any_page()

01a178a94e acpi, memory-hotplug: support getting hotplug info from SRAT
We now provide an option for users who don't want to specify physical
memory address in kernel commandline.

         /*
          * For movablemem_map=acpi:
          *
          * SRAT:                |_____| |_____| |_________| |_________| ......
          * node id:                0       1         1           2
          * hotpluggable:           n       y         y           n
          * movablemem_map:              |_____| |_________|
          *
          * Using movablemem_map, we can prevent memblock from allocating memory
          * on ZONE_MOVABLE at boot time.
          */

So user just specify movablemem_map=acpi, and the kernel will use
hotpluggable info in SRAT to determine which memory ranges should be set
as ZONE_MOVABLE.

If all the memory ranges in SRAT is hotpluggable, then no memory can be
used by kernel.  But before parsing SRAT, memblock has already reserve
some memory ranges for other purposes, such as for kernel image, and so
on.  We cannot prevent kernel from using these memory.  So we need to
exclude these ranges even if these memory is hotpluggable.

Furthermore, there could be several memory ranges in the single node
which the kernel resides in.  We may skip one range that have memory
reserved by memblock, but if the rest of memory is too small, then the
kernel will fail to boot.  So, make the whole node which the kernel
resides in un-hotpluggable.  Then the kernel has enough memory to use.

NOTE: Using this way will cause NUMA performance down because the
      whole node will be set as ZONE_MOVABLE, and kernel cannot use memory
      on it.  If users don't want to lose NUMA performance, just don't use
      it.

27168d38fa acpi, memory-hotplug: extend movablemem_map ranges to the end of node
When implementing movablemem_map boot option, we introduced an array
movablemem_map.map[] to store the memory ranges to be set as
ZONE_MOVABLE.

Since ZONE_MOVABLE is the latst zone of a node, if user didn't specify
the whole node memory range, we need to extend it to the node end so
that we can use it to prevent memblock from allocating memory in the
ranges user didn't specify.

We now implement movablemem_map boot option like this:

        /*
         * For movablemem_map=nn[KMG]@ss[KMG]:
         *
         * SRAT:                |_____| |_____| |_________| |_________| ......
         * node id:                0       1         1           2
         * user specified:                |__|                 |___|
         * movablemem_map:                |___| |_________|    |______| ......
         *
         * Using movablemem_map, we can prevent memblock from allocating memory
         * on ZONE_MOVABLE at boot time.
         *
         * NOTE: In this case, SRAT info will be ingored.

90b30cdc1d memory-hotplug: export the function try_offline_node()
try_offline_node() will be needed in the tristate
drivers/acpi/processor_driver.c.

The node will be offlined when all memory/cpu on the node have been
hotremoved.  So we need the function try_offline_node() in cpu-hotplug
path.

If the memory-hotplug is disabled, and cpu-hotplug is enabled

1. no memory no the node
   we don't online the node, and cpu's node is the nearest node.

2. the node contains some memory
   the node has been onlined, and cpu's node is still needed
   to migrate the sleep task on the cpu to the same node.

So we do nothing in try_offline_node() in this case.

d3eb1570a9 mempolicy: fix is_valid_nodemask()
is_valid_nodemask() was introduced by commit 19770b3260 ("mm: filter
based on a nodemask as well as a gfp_mask").  but it does not match its
comments, because it does not check the zone which > policy_zone.

Also in commit b377fd3982 ("Apply memory policies to top two highest
zones when highest zone is ZONE_MOVABLE"), this commits told us, if
highest zone is ZONE_MOVABLE, we should also apply memory policies to
it.  so ZONE_MOVABLE should be valid zone for policies.
is_valid_nodemask() need to be changed to match it.

Fix: check all zones, even its zoneid > policy_zone.  Use
nodes_intersects() instead open code to check it.

8a356ce38e memory-hotplug: consider compound pages when free memmap
usemap could also be allocated as compound pages.  Should also consider
compound pages when freeing memmap.

If we don't fix it, there could be problems when we free vmemmap
pagetables which are stored in compound pages.  The old pagetables will
not be freed properly, and when we add the memory again, no new
pagetable will be created.  And the old pagetable entry is used, than
the kernel will panic.

The call trace is like the following:

a1e565aa3c memory-hotplug: do not allocate pgdat if it was not freed when offline.
Since there is no way to guarentee the address of pgdat/zone is not on
stack of any kernel threads or used by other kernel objects without
reference counting or other symchronizing method, we cannot reset
node_data and free pgdat when offlining a node.  Just reset pgdat to 0
and reuse the memory when the node is online again.

The problem is suggested by Kamezawa Hiroyuki.  The idea is from Wen
Congyang.

NOTE: If we don't reset pgdat to 0, the WARN_ON in free_area_init_node()
      will be triggered.

Currently __remove_section for SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP does nothing.  But even
if we use SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, we can unregister the memory_section.

0197518cd3 memory-hotplug: remove memmap of sparse-vmemmap
Introduce a new API vmemmap_free() to free and remove vmemmap
pagetables.  Since pagetable implements are different, each architecture
has to provide its own version of vmemmap_free(), just like
vmemmap_populate().

Note: vmemmap_free() is not implemented for ia64, ppc, s390, and sparc.

cd099682e4 memory-hotplug: move pgdat_resize_lock into sparse_remove_one_section()
In __remove_section(), we locked pgdat_resize_lock when calling
sparse_remove_one_section().  This lock will disable irq.  But we don't
need to lock the whole function.  If we do some work to free pagetables
in free_section_usemap(), we need to call flush_tlb_all(), which need
irq enabled.  Otherwise the WARN_ON_ONCE() in smp_call_function_many()
will be triggered.

If we lock the whole sparse_remove_one_section(), then we come to this call trace:

46723bfa54 memory-hotplug: implement register_page_bootmem_info_section of sparse-vmemmap
For removing memmap region of sparse-vmemmap which is allocated bootmem,
memmap region of sparse-vmemmap needs to be registered by
get_page_bootmem().  So the patch searches pages of virtual mapping and
registers the pages by get_page_bootmem().

NOTE: register_page_bootmem_memmap() is not implemented for ia64,
      ppc, s390, and sparc.  So introduce CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE
      and revert register_page_bootmem_info_node() when platform doesn't
      support it.

      It's implemented by adding a new Kconfig option named
      CONFIG_HAVE_BOOTMEM_INFO_NODE, which will be automatically selected
      by memory-hotplug feature fully supported archs(currently only on
      x86_64).

      Since we have 2 config options called MEMORY_HOTPLUG and
      MEMORY_HOTREMOVE used for memory hot-add and hot-remove separately,
      and codes in function register_page_bootmem_info_node() are only
      used for collecting infomation for hot-remove, so reside it under
      MEMORY_HOTREMOVE.

      Besides page_isolation.c selected by MEMORY_ISOLATION under
      MEMORY_HOTPLUG is also such case, move it too.

46c66c4b7b memory-hotplug: remove /sys/firmware/memmap/X sysfs
When (hot)adding memory into system, /sys/firmware/memmap/X/{end, start,
type} sysfs files are created.  But there is no code to remove these
files.  This patch implements the function to remove them.

We cannot free firmware_map_entry which is allocated by bootmem because
there is no way to do so when the system is up.  But we can at least
remember the address of that memory and reuse the storage when the
memory is added next time.

This patch also introduces a new list map_entries_bootmem to link the
map entries allocated by bootmem when they are removed, and a lock to
protect it.  And these entries will be reused when the memory is
hot-added again.

The idea is suggestted by Andrew Morton.

NOTE: It is unsafe to return an entry pointer and release the
      map_entries_lock.  So we should not hold the map_entries_lock
      separately in firmware_map_find_entry() and
      firmware_map_remove_entry().  Hold the map_entries_lock across find
      and remove /sys/firmware/memmap/X operation.

       And also, users of these two functions need to be careful to
      hold the lock when using these two functions.

6677e3eaf4 memory-hotplug: check whether all memory blocks are offlined or not when removing memory
We remove the memory like this:

 1. lock memory hotplug
 2. offline a memory block
 3. unlock memory hotplug
 4. repeat 1-3 to offline all memory blocks
 5. lock memory hotplug
 6. remove memory(TODO)
 7. unlock memory hotplug

All memory blocks must be offlined before removing memory.  But we don't
hold the lock in the whole operation.  So we should check whether all
memory blocks are offlined before step6.  Otherwise, kernel maybe
panicked.

Offlining a memory block and removing a memory device can be two
different operations.  Users can just offline some memory blocks without
removing the memory device.  For this purpose, the kernel has held
lock_memory_hotplug() in __offline_pages().  To reuse the code for
memory hot-remove, we repeat step 1-3 to offline all the memory blocks,
repeatedly lock and unlock memory hotplug, but not hold the memory
hotplug lock in the whole operation.

993c1aad8f memory-hotplug: try to offline the memory twice to avoid dependence
memory can't be offlined when CONFIG_MEMCG is selected.  For example:
there is a memory device on node 1.  The address range is [1G, 1.5G).
You will find 4 new directories memory8, memory9, memory10, and memory11
under the directory /sys/devices/system/memory/.

If CONFIG_MEMCG is selected, we will allocate memory to store page
cgroup when we online pages.  When we online memory8, the memory stored
page cgroup is not provided by this memory device.  But when we online
memory9, the memory stored page cgroup may be provided by memory8.  So
we can't offline memory8 now.  We should offline the memory in the
reversed order.

When the memory device is hotremoved, we will auto offline memory
provided by this memory device.  But we don't know which memory is
onlined first, so offlining memory may fail.  In such case, iterate
twice to offline the memory.  1st iterate: offline every non primary
memory block.  2nd iterate: offline primary (i.e.  first added) memory
block.

This idea is suggested by KOSAKI Motohiro.

do_mmap_pgoff() rounds up the desired size to the next PAGE_SIZE
multiple, however there was no equivalent code in mm_populate(), which

This could be fixed by introduced the same rounding in mm_populate(),
however I think it's preferable to make do_mmap_pgoff() return populate

1869305009 mm: introduce VM_POPULATE flag to better deal with racy userspace programs
The vm_populate() code populates user mappings without constantly
holding the mmap_sem.  This makes it susceptible to racy userspace
programs: the user mappings may change while vm_populate() is running,
and in this case vm_populate() may end up populating the new mapping
instead of the old one.

In order to reduce the possibility of userspace getting surprised by
this behavior, this change introduces the VM_POPULATE vma flag which
gets set on vmas we want vm_populate() to work on.  This way
vm_populate() may still end up populating the new mapping after such a
race, but only if the new mapping is also one that the user has
requested (using MAP_SHARED, MAP_LOCKED or mlock) to be populated.

cea10a19b7 mm: directly use __mlock_vma_pages_range() in find_extend_vma()
In find_extend_vma(), we don't need mlock_vma_pages_range() to verify
the vma type - we know we're working with a stack.  So, we can call
directly into __mlock_vma_pages_range(), and remove the last
make_pages_present() call site.

Note that we don't use mm_populate() here, so we can't release the
mmap_sem while allocating new stack pages.  This is deemed acceptable,
because the stack vmas grow by a bounded number of pages at a time, and
these are anon pages so we don't have to read from disk to populate
them.

bebeb3d68b mm: introduce mm_populate() for populating new vmas
When creating new mappings using the MAP_POPULATE / MAP_LOCKED flags (or
with MCL_FUTURE in effect), we want to populate the pages within the
newly created vmas.  This may take a while as we may have to read pages
from disk, so ideally we want to do this outside of the write-locked
mmap_sem region.

This change introduces mm_populate(), which is used to defer populating
such mappings until after the mmap_sem write lock has been released.
This is implemented as a generalization of the former do_mlock_pages(),
which accomplished the same task but was using during mlock() /
mlockall().

We have many vma manipulation functions that are fast in the typical
case, but can optionally be instructed to populate an unbounded number
of ptes within the region they work on:

 - mmap with MAP_POPULATE or MAP_LOCKED flags;
 - remap_file_pages() with MAP_NONBLOCK not set or when working on a
   VM_LOCKED vma;
 - mmap_region() and all its wrappers when mlock(MCL_FUTURE) is in
   effect;
 - brk() when mlock(MCL_FUTURE) is in effect.

Current code handles these pte operations locally, while the
sourrounding code has to hold the mmap_sem write side since it's
manipulating vmas.  This means we're doing an unbounded amount of pte
population work with mmap_sem held, and this causes problems as Andy
Lutomirski reported (we've hit this at Google as well, though it's not
entirely clear why people keep trying to use mlock(MCL_FUTURE) in the
first place).

I propose introducing a new mm_populate() function to do this pte
population work after the mmap_sem has been released.  mm_populate()
does need to acquire the mmap_sem read side, but critically, it doesn't
need to hold it continuously for the entire duration of the operation -
it can drop it whenever things take too long (such as when hitting disk
for a file read) and re-acquire it later on.

The following patches are included

- Patches 1 fixes some issues I noticed while working on the existing code.
  If needed, they could potentially go in before the rest of the patches.

- Patch 2 introduces the new mm_populate() function and changes
  mmap_region() call sites to use it after they drop mmap_sem. This is
  inspired from Andy Lutomirski's proposal and is built as an extension
  of the work I had previously done for mlock() and mlockall() around
  v2.6.38-rc1. I had tried doing something similar at the time but had
  given up as there were so many do_mmap() call sites; the recent cleanups
  by Linus and Viro are a tremendous help here.

- Patches 3-5 convert some of the less-obvious places doing unbounded
  pte populates to the new mm_populate() mechanism.

- Patches 6-7 are code cleanups that are made possible by the
  mm_populate() work. In particular, they remove more code than the
  entire patch series added, which should be a good thing :)

- Patch 8 is optional to this entire series. It only helps to deal more
  nicely with racy userspace programs that might modify their mappings
  while we're trying to populate them. It adds a new VM_POPULATE flag
  on the mappings we do want to populate, so that if userspace replaces
  them with mappings it doesn't want populated, mm_populate() won't
  populate those replacement mappings.

This patch:

Assorted small fixes. The first two are quite small:

- Move check for vma->vm_private_data && !(vma->vm_flags & VM_NONLINEAR)
  within existing if (!(vma->vm_flags & VM_NONLINEAR)) block.
  Purely cosmetic.

- In the VM_LOCKED case, when dropping PG_Mlocked for the over-mapped
  range, make sure we own the mmap_sem write lock around the
  munlock_vma_pages_range call as this manipulates the vma's vm_flags.

Last fix requires a longer explanation. remap_file_pages() can do its work
either through VM_NONLINEAR manipulation or by creating extra vmas.
These two cases were inconsistent with each other (and ultimately, both wrong)
as to exactly when did they fault in the newly mapped file pages:

- In the VM_NONLINEAR case, new file pages would be populated if
  the MAP_NONBLOCK flag wasn't passed. If MAP_NONBLOCK was passed,
  new file pages wouldn't be populated even if the vma is already
  marked as VM_LOCKED.

- In the linear (emulated) case, the work is passed to the mmap_region()
  function which would populate the pages if the vma is marked as
  VM_LOCKED, and would not otherwise - regardless of the value of the
  MAP_NONBLOCK flag, because MAP_POPULATE wasn't being passed to
  mmap_region().

The desired behavior is that we want the pages to be populated and locked
if the vma is marked as VM_LOCKED, or to be populated if the MAP_NONBLOCK
flag is not passed to remap_file_pages().

dafcb73e38 mm: avoid calling pgdat_balanced() needlessly
Now that balance_pgdat() is slightly tidied up, thanks to more capable
pgdat_balanced(), it's become obvious that pgdat_balanced() is called to
check the status, then break the loop if pgdat is balanced, just to be
immediately called again.  The second call is completely unnecessary, of
course.

The patch introduces pgdat_is_balanced boolean, which helps resolve the
above suboptimal behavior, with the added benefit of slightly better
documenting one other place in the function where we jump and skip lots
of code.

a394cb8ee6 memcg,vmscan: do not break out targeted reclaim without reclaimed pages
Targeted (hard resp soft) reclaim has traditionally tried to scan one
group with decreasing priority until nr_to_reclaim (SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX
pages) is reclaimed or all priorities are exhausted.  The reclaim is
then retried until the limit is met.

This approach, however, doesn't work well with deeper hierarchies where
groups higher in the hierarchy do not have any or only very few pages
(this usually happens if those groups do not have any tasks and they
have only re-parented pages after some of their children is removed).
Those groups are reclaimed with decreasing priority pointlessly as there
is nothing to reclaim from them.

An easiest fix is to break out of the memcg iteration loop in
shrink_zone only if the whole hierarchy has been visited or sufficient
pages have been reclaimed.  This is also more natural because the
reclaimer expects that the hierarchy under the given root is reclaimed.
As a result we can simplify the soft limit reclaim which does its own
iteration.

a9aacbccf3 mm: compaction: do not accidentally skip pageblocks in the migrate scanner
Compaction uses the ALIGN macro incorrectly with the migrate scanner by
adding pageblock_nr_pages to a PFN.  It happened to work when initially
implemented as the starting PFN was also aligned but with caching
restarts and isolating in smaller chunks this is no longer always true.

The impact is that the migrate scanner scans outside its current
pageblock.  As pfn_valid() is still checked properly it does not cause
any failure and the impact of the bug is that in some cases it will scan
more than necessary when it crosses a page boundary but by no more than
COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX.  It is highly unlikely this is even measurable but
it's still wrong so this patch addresses the problem.

af34770e55 mm: reduce rmap overhead for ex-KSM page copies created on swap faults
When ex-KSM pages are faulted from swap cache, the fault handler is not
capable of re-establishing anon_vma-spanning KSM pages.  In this case, a
copy of the page is created instead, just like during a COW break.

These freshly made copies are known to be exclusive to the faulting VMA
and there is no reason to go look for this page in parent and sibling
processes during rmap operations.

Use page_add_new_anon_rmap() for these copies.  This also puts them on
the proper LRU lists and marks them SwapBacked, so we can get rid of
doing this ad-hoc in the KSM copy code.

9b4f98cdac mm: vmscan: compaction works against zones, not lruvecs
The restart logic for when reclaim operates back to back with compaction
is currently applied on the lruvec level.  But this does not make sense,
because the container of interest for compaction is a zone as a whole,
not the zone pages that are part of a certain memory cgroup.

Negative impact is bounded.  For one, the code checks that the lruvec
has enough reclaim candidates, so it does not risk getting stuck on a
condition that can not be fulfilled.  And the unfairness of hammering on
one particular memory cgroup to make progress in a zone will be
amortized by the round robin manner in which reclaim goes through the
memory cgroups.  Still, this can lead to unnecessary allocation
latencies when the code elects to restart on a hard to reclaim or small
group when there are other, more reclaimable groups in the zone.

Move this logic to the zone level and restart reclaim for all memory
cgroups in a zone when compaction requires more free pages from it.

9a2651140e mm: vmscan: clean up get_scan_count()
Reclaim pressure balance between anon and file pages is calculated
through a tuple of numerators and a shared denominator.

Exceptional cases that want to force-scan anon or file pages configure
the numerators and denominator such that one list is preferred, which is
not necessarily the most obvious way:

    fraction[0] = 1;
    fraction[1] = 0;
    denominator = 1;
    goto out;

Make this easier by making the force-scan cases explicit and use the
fractionals only in case they are calculated from reclaim history.

10316b313c mm: vmscan: clarify how swappiness, highest priority, memcg interact
A swappiness of 0 has a slightly different meaning for global reclaim
(may swap if file cache really low) and memory cgroup reclaim (never
swap, ever).

In addition, global reclaim at highest priority will scan all LRU lists
equal to their size and ignore other balancing heuristics.  UNLESS
swappiness forbids swapping, then the lists are balanced based on recent
reclaim effectiveness.  UNLESS file cache is running low, then anonymous
pages are force-scanned.

This (total mess of a) behaviour is implicit and not obvious from the
way the code is organized.  At least make it apparent in the code flow
and document the conditions.  It will be it easier to come up with sane
semantics later.

d778df51c0 mm: vmscan: save work scanning (almost) empty LRU lists
In certain cases (kswapd reclaim, memcg target reclaim), a fixed minimum
amount of pages is scanned from the LRU lists on each iteration, to make
progress.

Do not make this minimum bigger than the respective LRU list size,
however, and save some busy work trying to isolate and reclaim pages
that are not there.

Empty LRU lists are quite common with memory cgroups in NUMA
environments because there exists a set of LRU lists for each zone for
each memory cgroup, while the memory of a single cgroup is expected to
stay on just one node.  The number of expected empty LRU lists is thus

  memcgs * (nodes - 1) * lru types

Each attempt to reclaim from an empty LRU list does expensive size
comparisons between lists, acquires the zone's lru lock etc.  Avoid
that.

39b6525274 fs: Preserve error code in get_empty_filp(), part 2
Allocating a file structure in function get_empty_filp() might fail because
of several reasons:
 - not enough memory for file structures
 - operation is not allowed
 - user is over its limit

Currently the function returns NULL in all cases and we loose the exact
reason of the error. All callers of get_empty_filp() assume that the function
can fail with ENFILE only.

Return error through pointer. Change all callers to preserve this error code.

[AV: cleaned up a bit, carved the get_empty_filp() part out into a separate commit
(things remaining here deal with alloc_file()), removed pipe(2) behaviour change]

Pull x86 mm changes from Peter Anvin:
 "This is a huge set of several partly interrelated (and concurrently
  developed) changes, which is why the branch history is messier than
  one would like.

  The *really* big items are two humonguous patchsets mostly developed
  by Yinghai Lu at my request, which completely revamps the way we
  create initial page tables.  In particular, rather than estimating how
  much memory we will need for page tables and then build them into that
  memory -- a calculation that has shown to be incredibly fragile -- we
  now build them (on 64 bits) with the aid of a "pseudo-linear mode" --
  a #PF handler which creates temporary page tables on demand.

  This has several advantages:

  1. It makes it much easier to support things that need access to data
     very early (a followon patchset uses this to load microcode way
     early in the kernel startup).

  2. It allows the kernel and all the kernel data objects to be invoked
     from above the 4 GB limit.  This allows kdump to work on very large
     systems.

  3. It greatly reduces the difference between Xen and native (Xen's
     equivalent of the #PF handler are the temporary page tables created
     by the domain builder), eliminating a bunch of fragile hooks.

  The patch series also gets us a bit closer to W^X.

  Additional work in this pull is the 64-bit get_user() work which you
  were also involved with, and a bunch of cleanups/speedups to
  __phys_addr()/__pa()."

ffecfd1a72 block: optionally snapshot page contents to provide stable pages during write
This provides a band-aid to provide stable page writes on jbd without
needing to backport the fixed locking and page writeback bit handling
schemes of jbd2.  The band-aid works by using bounce buffers to snapshot
page contents instead of waiting.

For those wondering about the ext3 bandage -- fixing the jbd locking
(which was done as part of ext4dev years ago) is a lot of surgery, and
setting PG_writeback on data pages when we actually hold the page lock
dropped ext3 performance by nearly an order of magnitude.  If we're
going to migrate iscsi and raid to use stable page writes, the
complaints about high latency will likely return.  We might as well
centralize their page snapshotting thing to one place.

1d1d1a7672 mm: only enforce stable page writes if the backing device requires it
Create a helper function to check if a backing device requires stable
page writes and, if so, performs the necessary wait.  Then, make it so
that all points in the memory manager that handle making pages writable
use the helper function.  This should provide stable page write support
to most filesystems, while eliminating unnecessary waiting for devices
that don't require the feature.

Before this patchset, all filesystems would block, regardless of whether
or not it was necessary.  ext3 would wait, but still generate occasional
checksum errors.  The network filesystems were left to do their own
thing, so they'd wait too.

After this patchset, all the disk filesystems except ext3 and btrfs will
wait only if the hardware requires it.  ext3 (if necessary) snapshots
pages instead of blocking, and btrfs provides its own bdi so the mm will
never wait.  Network filesystems haven't been touched, so either they
provide their own stable page guarantees or they don't block at all.
The blocking behavior is back to what it was before 3.0 if you don't
have a disk requiring stable page writes.

Here's the result of using dbench to test latency on ext2:

3.8.0-rc3:
 Operation      Count    AvgLat    MaxLat
 ----------------------------------------
 WriteX        109347     0.028    59.817
 ReadX         347180     0.004     3.391
 Flush          15514    29.828   287.283

Throughput 57.429 MB/sec  4 clients  4 procs  max_latency=287.290 ms

3.8.0-rc3 + patches:
 WriteX        105556     0.029     4.273
 ReadX         335004     0.005     4.112
 Flush          14982    30.540   298.634

Throughput 55.4496 MB/sec  4 clients  4 procs  max_latency=298.650 ms

As you can see, the maximum write latency drops considerably with this
patch enabled.  The other filesystems (ext3/ext4/xfs/btrfs) behave
similarly, but see the cover letter for those results.

7d311cdab6 bdi: allow block devices to say that they require stable page writes
This patchset ("stable page writes, part 2") makes some key
modifications to the original 'stable page writes' patchset.  First, it
provides creators (devices and filesystems) of a backing_dev_info a flag
that declares whether or not it is necessary to ensure that page
contents cannot change during writeout.  It is no longer assumed that
this is true of all devices (which was never true anyway).  Second, the
flag is used to relaxed the wait_on_page_writeback calls so that wait
only occurs if the device needs it.  Third, it fixes up the remaining
disk-backed filesystems to use this improved conditional-wait logic to
provide stable page writes on those filesystems.

It is hoped that (for people not using checksumming devices, anyway)
this patchset will give back unnecessary performance decreases since the
original stable page write patchset went into 3.0.  Sorry about not
fixing it sooner.

Complaints were registered by several people about the long write
latencies introduced by the original stable page write patchset.
Generally speaking, the kernel ought to allocate as little extra memory
as possible to facilitate writeout, but for people who simply cannot
wait, a second page stability strategy is (re)introduced: snapshotting
page contents.  The waiting behavior is still the default strategy; to
enable page snapshotting, a superblock flag (MS_SNAP_STABLE) must be
set.  This flag is used to bandaid^Henable stable page writeback on
ext3[1], and is not used anywhere else.

Given that there are already a few storage devices and network FSes that
have rolled their own page stability wait/page snapshot code, it would
be nice to move towards consolidating all of these.  It seems possible
that iscsi and raid5 may wish to use the new stable page write support
to enable zero-copy writeout.

Thank you to Jan Kara for helping fix a couple more filesystems.

Per Andrew Morton's request, here are the result of using dbench to measure
latencies on ext2:

As you can see, for ext2 the maximum write latency decreases from ~60ms
on a laptop hard disk to ~4ms.  I'm not sure why the flush latencies
increase, though I suspect that being able to dirty pages faster gives
the flusher more work to do.

On ext4, the average write latency decreases as well as all the maximum
latencies:

   WriteX         85624     0.152    33.078

  Throughput 44.9941 MB/sec  4 clients  4 procs  max_latency=165.722 ms

XFS seems to exhibit similar latency improvements as ext2:

3.8.0-rc3:
   WriteX        125739     0.028   104.343

Before this patchset, all filesystems would block, regardless of whether
or not it was necessary.  ext3 would wait, but still generate occasional
checksum errors.  The network filesystems were left to do their own
thing, so they'd wait too.

After this patchset, all the disk filesystems except ext3 and btrfs will
wait only if the hardware requires it.  ext3 (if necessary) snapshots
pages instead of blocking, and btrfs provides its own bdi so the mm will
never wait.  Network filesystems haven't been touched, so either they
provide their own wait code, or they don't block at all.  The blocking
behavior is back to what it was before 3.0 if you don't have a disk
requiring stable page writes.

This patchset has been tested on 3.8.0-rc3 on x64 with ext3, ext4, and
xfs.  I've spot-checked 3.8.0-rc4 and seem to be getting the same
results as -rc3.

[1] The alternative fixes to ext3 include fixing the locking order and
page bit handling like we did for ext4 (but then why not just use
ext4?), or setting PG_writeback so early that ext3 becomes extremely
slow.  I tried that, but the number of write()s I could initiate dropped
by nearly an order of magnitude.  That was a bit much even for the
author of the stable page series! :)

This patch:

Creates a per-backing-device flag that tracks whether or not pages must
be held immutable during writeout.  Eventually it will be used to waive
wait_for_page_writeback() if nothing requires stable pages.

7c45512df9 mm: fix pageblock bitmap allocation
Commit c060f943d0 ("mm: use aligned zone start for pfn_to_bitidx
calculation") fixed out calculation of the index into the pageblock
bitmap when a !SPARSEMEM zome was not aligned to pageblock_nr_pages.

However, the _allocation_ of that bitmap had never taken this alignment
requirement into accout, so depending on the exact size and alignment of
the zone, the use of that index could then access past the allocation,
resulting in some very subtle memory corruption.

This was reported (and bisected) by Ingo Molnar: one of his random
config builds would hang with certain very specific kernel command line
options.

In the meantime, commit c060f943d0 has been marked for stable, so this
fix needs to be back-ported to the stable kernels that backported the
commit to use the right alignment.

abf09bed3c s390/mm: implement software dirty bits
The s390 architecture is unique in respect to dirty page detection,
it uses the change bit in the per-page storage key to track page
modifications. All other architectures track dirty bits by means
of page table entries. This property of s390 has caused numerous
problems in the past, e.g. see git commit ef5d437f71
"mm: fix XFS oops due to dirty pages without buffers on s390".

To avoid future issues in regard to per-page dirty bits convert
s390 to a fault based software dirty bit detection mechanism. All
user page table entries which are marked as clean will be hardware
read-only, even if the pte is supposed to be writable. A write by
the user process will trigger a protection fault which will cause
the user pte to be marked as dirty and the hardware read-only bit
is removed.

With this change the dirty bit in the storage key is irrelevant
for Linux as a host, but the storage key is still required for
KVM guests. The effect is that page_test_and_clear_dirty and the
related code can be removed. The referenced bit in the storage
key is still used by the page_test_and_clear_young primitive to
provide page age information.

For page cache pages of mappings with mapping_cap_account_dirty
there will not be any change in behavior as the dirty bit tracking
already uses read-only ptes to control the amount of dirty pages.
Only for swap cache pages and pages of mappings without
mapping_cap_account_dirty there can be additional protection faults.
To avoid an excessive number of additional faults the mk_pte
primitive checks for PageDirty if the pgprot value allows for writes
and pre-dirties the pte. That avoids all additional faults for
tmpfs and shmem pages until these pages are added to the swap cache.

4ba902b574 memcg: fix kmemcg registration for late caches
The designed workflow for the caches in kmemcg is: register it with
memcg_register_cache() if kmemcg is already available or later on when a
new kmemcg appears at memcg_update_cache_sizes() which will handle all
caches in the system.  The caches created at boot time will be handled
by the later, and the memcg-caches as well as any system caches that are
registered later on by the former.

There is a bug, however, in memcg_register_cache: we correctly set up
the array size, but do not mark the cache as a root cache.

This means that allocations for any cache appearing late in the game
will see memcg->memcg_params->is_root_cache == false, and in particular,
trigger VM_BUG_ON(!cachep->memcg_params->is_root_cache) in
__memcg_kmem_cache_get.

The obvious fix is to include the missing assignment.

mm->def_flags for certain processes, to prevent future thp mappings.
This would be overwritten by do_mlockall(), which sets it back to 0 with
an optional VM_LOCKED flag set.

To fix this, instead of overwriting mm->def_flags in do_mlockall(), only
the VM_LOCKED flag should be set or cleared.

object kept in the kmalloc arrays for SLAB and SLUB.

Differentiate between the maximum size for which a slab cache is used
(KMALLOC_MAX_CACHE_SIZE) and the maximum allocatable size
(KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE, KMALLOC_MAX_ORDER).

e33660165c slab: Use common kmalloc_index/kmalloc_size functions
Make slab use the common functions. We can get rid of a lot
of old ugly stuff as a results. Among them the sizes
array and the weird include/linux/kmalloc_sizes file and
some pretty bad #include statements in slab_def.h.

The one thing that is different in slab is that the 32 byte
cache will also be created for arches that have page sizes
larger than 4K. There are numerous smaller allocations that
SLOB and SLUB can handle better because of their support for
smaller allocation sizes so lets keep the 32 byte slab also
for arches with > 4K pages.

2b8576cb09 userns: Allow the userns root to mount tmpfs.
There is no backing store to tmpfs and file creation rules are the
same as for any other filesystem so it is semantically safe to allow
unprivileged users to mount it.  ramfs is safe for the same reasons so
allow either flavor of tmpfs to be mounted by a user namespace root
user.

The memory control group successfully limits how much memory tmpfs can
consume on any system that cares about a user namespace root using
tmpfs to exhaust memory the memory control group can be deployed.

ed84825b78 Negative (setpoint-dirty) in bdi_position_ratio()
In bdi_position_ratio(), get difference (setpoint-dirty) right even when
negative. Both setpoint and dirty are unsigned long, the difference was
zero-padded thus wrongly sign-extended to s64. This issue affects all
32-bit architectures, does not affect 64-bit architectures where long
and s64 are equivalent.

In this function, dirty is between freerun and limit, the pseudo-float x
is between [-1,1], expected to be negative about half the time. With
zero-padding, instead of a small negative x we obtained a large positive
one so bdi_position_ratio() returned garbage.

Casting the difference to s64 also prevents overflow with left-shift;
though normally these numbers are small and I never observed a 32-bit
overflow there.

(This patch does not solve the PAE OOM issue.)

9fb0a7da0c writeback: add more tracepoints
Add tracepoints for page dirtying, writeback_single_inode start, inode
dirtying and writeback.  For the latter two inode events, a pair of
events are defined to denote start and end of the operations (the
starting one has _start suffix and the one w/o suffix happens after
the operation is complete).  These inode ops are FS specific and can
be non-trivial and having enclosing tracepoints is useful for external
tracers.

This is part of tracepoint additions to improve visiblity into
dirtying / writeback operations for io tracer and userland.

v2: writeback_dirty_inode[_start] TPs may be called for files on
    pseudo FSes w/ unregistered bdi.  Check whether bdi->dev is %NULL
    before dereferencing.

v3: buffer dirtying moved to a block TP.

8fb74b9fb2 mm: compaction: partially revert capture of suitable high-order page
Eric Wong reported on 3.7 and 3.8-rc2 that ppoll() got stuck when
waiting for POLLIN on a local TCP socket.  It was easier to trigger if
there was disk IO and dirty pages at the same time and he bisected it to
commit 1fb3f8ca0e ("mm: compaction: capture a suitable high-order page
immediately when it is made available").

The intention of that patch was to improve high-order allocations under
memory pressure after changes made to reclaim in 3.6 drastically hurt
THP allocations but the approach was flawed.  For Eric, the problem was
that page->pfmemalloc was not being cleared for captured pages leading
to a poor interaction with swap-over-NFS support causing the packets to
be dropped.  However, I identified a few more problems with the patch
including the fact that it can increase contention on zone->lock in some
cases which could result in async direct compaction being aborted early.

In retrospect the capture patch took the wrong approach.  What it should
have done is mark the pageblock being migrated as MIGRATE_ISOLATE if it
was allocating for THP and avoided races that way.  While the patch was
showing to improve allocation success rates at the time, the benefit is
marginal given the relative complexity and it should be revisited from
scratch in the context of the other reclaim-related changes that have
taken place since the patch was first written and tested.  This patch
partially reverts commit 1fb3f8ca0e ("mm: compaction: capture a
suitable high-order page immediately when it is made available").

Alexander Beregalov and Alex Xu reported similar bugs and Hillf Danton
identified that commit 5a505085f0 ("mm/rmap: Convert the struct
anon_vma::mutex to an rwsem") and commit 4fc3f1d66b ("mm/rmap,
migration: Make rmap_walk_anon() and try_to_unmap_anon() more scalable")
were likely the problem.  Reverting these commits was reported to solve
the problem for Alexander.

Despite the reason for these commits, NUMA balancing is not the direct
source of the problem.  split_huge_page() expects the anon_vma lock to
be exclusive to serialise the whole split operation.  Ordinarily it is
expected that the anon_vma lock would only be required when updating the
avcs but THP also uses the anon_vma rwsem for collapse and split
operations where the page lock or compound lock cannot be used (as the
page is changing from base to THP or vice versa) and the page table
locks are insufficient.

This patch takes the anon_vma lock for write to serialise against parallel
split_huge_page as THP expected before the conversion to rwsem.

572043c90d mm: mmap: annotate vm_lock_anon_vma locking properly for lockdep
Commit 5a505085f0 ("mm/rmap: Convert the struct anon_vma::mutex to an
rwsem") turned anon_vma mutex to rwsem.

However, the properly annotated nested locking in mm_take_all_locks()
has been converted from

	mutex_lock_nest_lock(&anon_vma->root->mutex, &mm->mmap_sem);

to

	down_write(&anon_vma->root->rwsem);

which is incomplete, and causes the false positive report from lockdep
below.

Annotate the fact that mmap_sem is used as an outter lock to serialize
taking of all the anon_vma rwsems at once no matter the order, using the
down_write_nest_lock() primitive.

This patch fixes this lockdep report:

10d73e655c mm: bootmem: fix free_all_bootmem_core() with odd bitmap alignment
Currently free_all_bootmem_core ignores that node_min_pfn may be not
multiple of BITS_PER_LONG.  Eg commit 6dccdcbe2c ("mm: bootmem: fix
checking the bitmap when finally freeing bootmem") shifts vec by lower
bits of start instead of lower bits of idx.  Also

  if (IS_ALIGNED(start, BITS_PER_LONG) && vec == ~0UL)

assumes that vec bit 0 corresponds to start pfn, which is only true when
node_min_pfn is a multiple of BITS_PER_LONG.  Also loop in the else
clause can double-free pages (e.g.  with node_min_pfn == start == 1,
map[0] == ~0 on 32-bit machine page 32 will be double-freed).

This bug causes the following message during xtensa kernel boot:

  bootmem::free_all_bootmem_core nid=0 start=1 end=8000
  BUG: Bad page state in process swapper  pfn:00001
  page:d04bd020 count:0 mapcount:-127 mapping:  (null) index:0x2

    start_kernel+0x11e/0x25c
    should_never_return+0x0/0x3be7

The fix is the following:
 - always align vec so that its bit 0 corresponds to start
 - provide BITS_PER_LONG bits in vec, if those bits are available in the
   map
 - don't free pages past next start position in the else clause.

c060f943d0 mm: use aligned zone start for pfn_to_bitidx calculation
The current calculation in pfn_to_bitidx assumes that (pfn -
zone->zone_start_pfn) >> pageblock_order will return the same bit for
all pfn in a pageblock.  If zone_start_pfn is not aligned to
pageblock_nr_pages, this may not always be correct.

Consider the following with pageblock order = 10, zone start 2MB:

  pfn     | pfn - zone start | (pfn - zone start) >> page block order
  ----------------------------------------------------------------
  0x26000 | 0x25e00	   |  0x97
  0x26100 | 0x25f00	   |  0x97
  0x26200 | 0x26000	   |  0x98
  0x26300 | 0x26100	   |  0x98

This means that calling {get,set}_pageblock_migratetype on a single page
will not set the migratetype for the full block.  Fix this by rounding
down zone_start_pfn when doing the bitidx calculation.

For our use case, the effects of this bug were mostly tied to the fact
that CMA allocations would either take a long time or fail to happen.
Depending on the driver using CMA, this could result in anything from
visual glitches to application failures.

compact_memory.

The fix is to make the system just return 0 instead 3(COMPACT_COMPLETE)
from sysctl_compaction_handler after compaction_nodes finished.

c0232ae861 mm: memblock: fix wrong memmove size in memblock_merge_regions()
The memmove span covers from (next+1) to the end of the array, and the
index of next is (i+1), so the index of (next+1) is (i+2).  So the size
of remaining array elements is (type->cnt - (i + 2)).

Since the remaining elements of the memblock array are move forward by
one element and there is only one additional element caused by this bug.
So there won't be any write overflow here but read overflow.  It may
read one more element out of the array address if the array happens to
be full.  Commonly it doesn't matter at all but if the array happens to
be located at the end a memblock, it may cause a invalid read operation
for the physical address doesn't exist.

There are 2 *happens to be* here, so I think the probability is quite
low, I don't know if any guy is haunted by this bug before.

Mostly I think it's user-invisible.

04fa5d6a65 mm: migrate: check page_count of THP before migrating
Hugh Dickins pointed out that migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() does
not check page_count before migrating like base page migration and
khugepage.  He could not see why this was safe and he is right.

The potential impact of the bug is avoided due to the limitations of
NUMA balancing.  The page_mapcount() check ensures that only a single
address space is using this page and as THPs are typically private it
should not be possible for another address space to fault it in
parallel.  If the address space has one associated task then it's
difficult to have both a GUP pin and be referencing the page at the same
time.  If there are multiple tasks then a buggy scenario requires that
another thread be accessing the page while the direct IO is in flight.
This is dodgy behaviour as there is a possibility of corruption with or
without THP migration.  It would be

While we happen to be safe for the most part it is shoddy to depend on
such "safety" so this patch checks the page count similar to anonymous
pages.  Note that this does not mean that the page_mapcount() check can
go away.  If we were to remove the page_mapcount() check the the THP
would have to be unmapped from all referencing PTEs, replaced with
migration PTEs and restored properly afterwards.

53a59fc67f mm: limit mmu_gather batching to fix soft lockups on !CONFIG_PREEMPT
Since commit e303297e6c ("mm: extended batches for generic
mmu_gather") we are batching pages to be freed until either
tlb_next_batch cannot allocate a new batch or we are done.

This works just fine most of the time but we can get in troubles with
non-preemptible kernel (CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE or CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY)
on large machines where too aggressive batching might lead to soft
lockups during process exit path (exit_mmap) because there are no
scheduling points down the free_pages_and_swap_cache path and so the
freeing can take long enough to trigger the soft lockup.

The lockup is harmless except when the system is setup to panic on
softlockup which is not that unusual.

The simplest way to work around this issue is to limit the maximum
number of batches in a single mmu_gather.  10k of collected pages should
be safe to prevent from soft lockups (we would have 2ms for one) even if
they are all freed without an explicit scheduling point.

This patch doesn't add any new explicit scheduling points because it
relies on zap_pmd_range during page tables zapping which calls
cond_resched per PMD.

The following lockup has been reported for 3.0 kernel with a huge
process (in order of hundreds gigs but I do know any more details).

a458431e17 mm: fix zone_watermark_ok_safe() accounting of isolated pages
Commit 702d1a6e07 ("memory-hotplug: fix kswapd looping forever
problem") added an isolated pageblocks counter (nr_pageblock_isolate in
struct zone) and used it to adjust free pages counter in
zone_watermark_ok_safe() to prevent kswapd looping forever problem.

Then later, commit 2139cbe627 ("cma: fix counting of isolated pages")
fixed accounting of isolated pages in global free pages counter.  It
made the previous zone_watermark_ok_safe() fix unnecessary and
potentially harmful (cause now isolated pages may be accounted twice
making free pages counter incorrect).

This patch removes the special isolated pageblocks counter altogether
which fixes zone_watermark_ok_safe() free pages check.

It's very unlikely this will happen as shared pages are not marked
pte_numa -- see the page_mapcount() check in change_pte_range() -- but
it is possible.

To address this, this patch restores sp->lock as originally implemented
by Kosaki Motohiro.  In the path where get_vma_policy() is called, it
should not be calling sp_alloc() so it is not necessary to treat the PTL
specially.

f2a07f40db tmpfs mempolicy: fix /proc/mounts corrupting memory
Recently I suggested using "mount -o remount,mpol=local /tmp" in NUMA
mempolicy testing.  Very nasty.  Reading /proc/mounts, /proc/pid/mounts
or /proc/pid/mountinfo may then corrupt one bit of kernel memory, often
in a page table (causing "Bad swap" or "Bad page map" warning or "Bad
pagetable" oops), sometimes in a vm_area_struct or rbnode or somewhere
worse.  "mpol=prefer" and "mpol=prefer:Node" are equally toxic.

Recent NUMA enhancements are not to blame: this dates back to 2.6.35,
when commit e17f74af35 "mempolicy: don't call mpol_set_nodemask() when
no_context" skipped mpol_parse_str()'s call to mpol_set_nodemask(),
which used to initialize v.preferred_node, or set MPOL_F_LOCAL in flags.
With slab poisoning, you can then rely on mpol_to_str() to set the bit
for node 0x6b6b, probably in the next page above the caller's stack.

mpol_parse_str() is only called from shmem_parse_options(): no_context
is always true, so call it unused for now, and remove !no_context code.
Set v.nodes or v.preferred_node or MPOL_F_LOCAL as mpol_to_str() might
expect.  Then mpol_to_str() can ignore its no_context argument also,
the mpol being appropriately initialized whether contextualized or not.
Rename its no_context unused too, and let subsequent patch remove them
(that's not needed for stable backporting, which would involve rejects).

I don't understand why MPOL_LOCAL is described as a pseudo-policy:
it's a reasonable policy which suffers from a confusing implementation
in terms of MPOL_PREFERRED with MPOL_F_LOCAL.  I believe this would be
much more robust if MPOL_LOCAL were recognized in switch statements
throughout, MPOL_F_LOCAL deleted, and MPOL_PREFERRED use the (possibly
empty) nodes mask like everyone else, instead of its preferred_node
variant (I presume an optimization from the days before MPOL_LOCAL).
But that would take me too long to get right and fully tested.

154b454eda memcg: don't register hotcpu notifier from ->css_alloc()
Commit 648bb56d07 ("cgroup: lock cgroup_mutex in cgroup_init_subsys()")
made cgroup_init_subsys() grab cgroup_mutex before invoking
->css_alloc() for the root css.  Because memcg registers hotcpu notifier
from ->css_alloc() for the root css, this introduced circular locking
dependency between cgroup_mutex and cpu hotplug.

Fix it by moving hotcpu notifier registration to a subsys initcall.

c8b74c2f66 mm: fix calculation of dirtyable memory
The system uses global_dirtyable_memory() to calculate number of
dirtyable pages/pages that can be allocated to the page cache.  A bug
causes an underflow thus making the page count look like a big unsigned
number.  This in turn confuses the dirty writeback throttling to
aggressively write back pages as they become dirty (usually 1 page at a
time).  This generally only affects systems with highmem because the
underflowed count gets subtracted from the global count of dirtyable
memory.

The problem was introduced with v3.2-4896-gab8fabd

Fix is to ensure we don't get an underflowed total of either highmem or
global dirtyable memory.

cda73a10eb mm: do not sleep in balance_pgdat if there's no i/o congestion
On a 4GB RAM machine, where Normal zone is much smaller than DMA32 zone,
the Normal zone gets fragmented in time.  This requires relatively more
pressure in balance_pgdat to get the zone above the required watermark.
Unfortunately, the congestion_wait() call in there slows it down for a
completely wrong reason, expecting that there's a lot of
writeback/swapout, even when there's none (much more common).  After a
few days, when fragmentation progresses, this flawed logic translates to
a very high CPU iowait times, even though there's no I/O congestion at
all.  If THP is enabled, the problem occurs sooner, but I was able to
see it even on !THP kernels, just by giving it a bit more time to occur.

The proper way to deal with this is to not wait, unless there's
congestion.  Thanks to Mel Gorman, we already have the function that
perfectly fits the job.  The patch was tested on a machine which nicely
revealed the problem after only 1 day of uptime, and it's been working
great.

3cf23841b4 mm/vmscan.c: avoid possible deadlock caused by too_many_isolated()
Neil found that if too_many_isolated() returns true while performing
direct reclaim we can end up waiting for other threads to complete their
direct reclaim.  If those threads are allowed to enter the FS or IO to
free memory, but this thread is not, then it is possible that those
threads will be waiting on this thread and so we get a circular deadlock.

some task enters direct reclaim with GFP_KERNEL
  => too_many_isolated() false
    => vmscan and run into dirty pages
      => pageout()
        => take some FS lock
          => fs/block code does GFP_NOIO allocation
            => enter direct reclaim again
              => too_many_isolated() true
                => waiting for others to progress, however the other
                   tasks may be circular waiting for the FS lock..

The fix is to let !__GFP_IO and !__GFP_FS direct reclaims enjoy higher
priority than normal ones, by lowering the throttle threshold for the
latter.

Allowing ~1/8 isolated pages in normal is large enough.  For example, for
a 1GB LRU list, that's ~128MB isolated pages, or 1k blocked tasks (each
isolates 32 4KB pages), or 64 blocked tasks per logical CPU (assuming 16
logical CPUs per NUMA node).  So it's not likely some CPU goes idle
waiting (when it could make progress) because of this limit: there are
much more sleeping reclaim tasks than the number of CPU, so the task may
well be blocked by some low level queue/lock anyway.

Now !GFP_IOFS reclaims won't be waiting for GFP_IOFS reclaims to progress.
 They will be blocked only when there are too many concurrent !GFP_IOFS
reclaims, however that's very unlikely because the IO-less direct reclaims
is able to progress much more faster, and they won't deadlock each other.
The threshold is raised high enough for them, so that there can be
sufficient parallel progress of !GFP_IOFS reclaims.

Build kernel with CONFIG_HUGETLBFS=y,CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE=y and

will fail to boot.

This failure is caused by following code path:

  setup_hugepagesz
    hugetlb_add_hstate
      hugetlb_cgroup_file_init
        cgroup_add_cftypes
          kzalloc <--slab is *not available* yet

For this path, slab is not available yet, so memory allocated will be
failed, and cause WARN_ON() in hugetlb_cgroup_file_init().

So I move hugetlb_cgroup_file_init() into hugetlb_init().

5413dfba88 slub: drop mutex before deleting sysfs entry
Sasha Levin recently reported a lockdep problem resulting from the new
attribute propagation introduced by kmemcg series.  In short, slab_mutex
will be called from within the sysfs attribute store function.  This will
create a dependency, that will later be held backwards when a cache is
destroyed - since destruction occurs with the slab_mutex held, and then
calls in to the sysfs directory removal function.

In this patch, I propose to adopt a strategy close to what
__kmem_cache_create does before calling sysfs_slab_add, and release the
lock before the call to sysfs_slab_remove.  This is pretty much the last
operation in the kmem_cache_shutdown() path, so we could do better by
splitting this and moving this call alone to later on.  This will fit
nicely when sysfs handling is consistent between all caches, but will look
weird now.

ebe945c276 memcg: add comments clarifying aspects of cache attribute propagation
This patch clarifies two aspects of cache attribute propagation.

First, the expected context for the for_each_memcg_cache macro in
memcontrol.h.  The usages already in the codebase are safe.  In mm/slub.c,
it is trivially safe because the lock is acquired right before the loop.
In mm/slab.c, it is less so: the lock is acquired by an outer function a
few steps back in the stack, so a VM_BUG_ON() is added to make sure it is
indeed safe.

A comment is also added to detail why we are returning the value of the
parent cache and ignoring the children's when we propagate the attributes.

tunables the parent cache already had.

This can be done by tapping into the store attribute function provided by
the allocator.  We of course don't need to mess with read-only fields.
Since the attributes can have multiple types and are stored internally by
sysfs, the best strategy is to issue a ->show() in the root cache, and
then ->store() in the memcg cache.

The drawback of that, is that sysfs can allocate up to a page in buffering
for show(), that we are likely not to need, but also can't guarantee.  To
avoid always allocating a page for that, we can update the caches at store
time with the maximum attribute size ever stored to the root cache.  We
will then get a buffer big enough to hold it.  The corolary to this, is
that if no stores happened, nothing will be propagated.

It can also happen that a root cache has its tunables updated during
normal system operation.  In this case, we will propagate the change to
all caches that are already active.

943a451a87 slab: propagate tunable values
SLAB allows us to tune a particular cache behavior with tunables.  When
creating a new memcg cache copy, we'd like to preserve any tunables the
parent cache already had.

This could be done by an explicit call to do_tune_cpucache() after the
cache is created.  But this is not very convenient now that the caches are
created from common code, since this function is SLAB-specific.

Another method of doing that is taking advantage of the fact that
do_tune_cpucache() is always called from enable_cpucache(), which is
called at cache initialization.  We can just preset the values, and then
things work as expected.

It can also happen that a root cache has its tunables updated during
normal system operation.  In this case, we will propagate the change to
all caches that are already active.

This change will require us to move the assignment of root_cache in
memcg_params a bit earlier.  We need this to be already set - which
memcg_kmem_register_cache will do - when we reach __kmem_cache_create()

When we create caches in memcgs, we need to display their usage
information somewhere.  We'll adopt a scheme similar to /proc/meminfo,
with aggregate totals shown in the global file, and per-group information
stored in the group itself.

For the time being, only reads are allowed in the per-group cache.

2293315293 memcg/sl[au]b: shrink dead caches
This means that when we destroy a memcg cache that happened to be empty,
those caches may take a lot of time to go away: removing the memcg
reference won't destroy them - because there are pending references, and
the empty pages will stay there, until a shrinker is called upon for any
reason.

In this patch, we will call kmem_cache_shrink() for all dead caches that
cannot be destroyed because of remaining pages.  After shrinking, it is
possible that it could be freed.  If this is not the case, we'll schedule
a lazy worker to keep trying.

1f458cbf12 memcg: destroy memcg caches
Implement destruction of memcg caches.  Right now, only caches where our
reference counter is the last remaining are deleted.  If there are any
other reference counters around, we just leave the caches lying around
until they go away.

When that happens, a destruction function is called from the cache code.
Caches are only destroyed in process context, so we queue them up for
later processing in the general case.

We need this to prevent races in early cache creation, when we
allocate data using caches that are not necessarily created already.

d7f25f8a2f memcg: infrastructure to match an allocation to the right cache
The page allocator is able to bind a page to a memcg when it is
allocated.  But for the caches, we'd like to have as many objects as
possible in a page belonging to the same cache.

This is done in this patch by calling memcg_kmem_get_cache in the
beginning of every allocation function.  This function is patched out by
static branches when kernel memory controller is not being used.

It assumes that the task allocating, which determines the memcg in the
page allocator, belongs to the same cgroup throughout the whole process.
Misaccounting can happen if the task calls memcg_kmem_get_cache() while
belonging to a cgroup, and later on changes.  This is considered
acceptable, and should only happen upon task migration.

Before the cache is created by the memcg core, there is also a possible
imbalance: the task belongs to a memcg, but the cache being allocated from
is the global cache, since the child cache is not yet guaranteed to be
ready.  This case is also fine, since in this case the GFP_KMEMCG will not
be passed and the page allocator will not attempt any cgroup accounting.

55007d8497 memcg: allocate memory for memcg caches whenever a new memcg appears
Every cache that is considered a root cache (basically the "original"
caches, tied to the root memcg/no-memcg) will have an array that should be
large enough to store a cache pointer per each memcg in the system.

Theoreticaly, this is as high as 1 << sizeof(css_id), which is currently
in the 64k pointers range.  Most of the time, we won't be using that much.

What goes in this patch, is a simple scheme to dynamically allocate such
an array, in order to minimize memory usage for memcg caches.  Because we
would also like to avoid allocations all the time, at least for now, the
array will only grow.  It will tend to be big enough to hold the maximum
number of kmem-limited memcgs ever achieved.

We'll allocate it to be a minimum of 64 kmem-limited memcgs.  When we have
more than that, we'll start doubling the size of this array every time the
limit is reached.

Because we are only considering kmem limited memcgs, a natural point for
this to happen is when we write to the limit.  At that point, we already
have set_limit_mutex held, so that will become our natural synchronization
mechanism.

2633d7a028 slab/slub: consider a memcg parameter in kmem_create_cache
Allow a memcg parameter to be passed during cache creation.  When the slub
allocator is being used, it will only merge caches that belong to the same
memcg.  We'll do this by scanning the global list, and then translating
the cache to a memcg-specific cache

Default function is created as a wrapper, passing NULL to the memcg
version.  We only merge caches that belong to the same memcg.

A helper is provided, memcg_css_id: because slub needs a unique cache name
for sysfs.  Since this is visible, but not the canonical location for slab
data, the cache name is not used, the css_id should suffice.

6ccfb5bcf5 slab: annotate on-slab caches nodelist locks
We currently provide lockdep annotation for kmalloc caches, and also
caches that have SLAB_DEBUG_OBJECTS enabled.  The reason for this is that
we can quite frequently nest in the l3->list_lock lock, which is not
something trivial to avoid.

My proposal with this patch, is to extend this to caches whose slab
management object lives within the slab as well ("on_slab").  The need for
this arose in the context of testing kmemcg-slab patches.  With such
patchset, we can have per-memcg kmalloc caches.  So the same path that led
to nesting between kmalloc caches will could then lead to in-memcg
nesting.  Because they are not annotated, lockdep will trigger.

c8b2a36fb1 memcg: execute the whole memcg freeing in free_worker()
A lot of the initialization we do in mem_cgroup_create() is done with
softirqs enabled.  This include grabbing a css id, which holds
&ss->id_lock->rlock, and the per-zone trees, which holds
rtpz->lock->rlock.  All of those signal to the lockdep mechanism that
those locks can be used in SOFTIRQ-ON-W context.

This means that the freeing of memcg structure must happen in a
compatible context, otherwise we'll get a deadlock, like the one below,
caught by lockdep:

   free_accounted_pages+0x47/0x4c
   free_task+0x31/0x5c
   __put_task_struct+0xc2/0xdb
   put_task_struct+0x1e/0x22
   delayed_put_task_struct+0x7a/0x98
   __rcu_process_callbacks+0x269/0x3df
   rcu_process_callbacks+0x31/0x5b
   __do_softirq+0x122/0x277

This usage pattern could not be triggered before kmem came into play.
With the introduction of kmem stack handling, it is possible that we call
the last mem_cgroup_put() from the task destructor, which is run in an rcu
callback.  Such callbacks are run with softirqs disabled, leading to the
offensive usage pattern.

In general, we have little, if any, means to guarantee in which context
the last memcg_put will happen.  The best we can do is test it and try to
make sure no invalid context releases are happening.  But as we add more
code to memcg, the possible interactions grow in number and expose more
ways to get context conflicts.  One thing to keep in mind, is that part of
the freeing process is already deferred to a worker, such as vfree(), that
can only be called from process context.

For the moment, the only two functions we really need moved away are:

  * free_css_id(), and
  * mem_cgroup_remove_from_trees().

But because the later accesses per-zone info,
free_mem_cgroup_per_zone_info() needs to be moved as well.  With that, we
are left with the per_cpu stats only.  Better move it all.

bea207c86e memcg: allow a memcg with kmem charges to be destructed
Because the ultimate goal of the kmem tracking in memcg is to track slab
pages as well, we can't guarantee that we'll always be able to point a
page to a particular process, and migrate the charges along with it -
since in the common case, a page will contain data belonging to multiple
processes.

Because of that, when we destroy a memcg, we only make sure the
destruction will succeed by discounting the kmem charges from the user
charges when we try to empty the cgroup.

a8964b9b84 memcg: use static branches when code not in use
We can use static branches to patch the code in or out when not used.

Because the _ACTIVE bit on kmem_accounted is only set after the increment
is done, we guarantee that the root memcg will always be selected for kmem
charges until all call sites are patched (see memcg_kmem_enabled).  This
guarantees that no mischarges are applied.

Static branch decrement happens when the last reference count from the
kmem accounting in memcg dies.  This will only happen when the charges
drop down to 0.

When that happens, we need to disable the static branch only on those
memcgs that enabled it.  To achieve this, we would be forced to complicate
the code by keeping track of which memcgs were the ones that actually
enabled limits, and which ones got it from its parents.

It is a lot simpler just to do static_key_slow_inc() on every child
that is accounted.

7de37682be memcg: kmem accounting lifecycle management
Because kmem charges can outlive the cgroup, we need to make sure that we
won't free the memcg structure while charges are still in flight.  For
reviewing simplicity, the charge functions will issue mem_cgroup_get() at
every charge, and mem_cgroup_put() at every uncharge.

This can get expensive, however, and we can do better.  mem_cgroup_get()
only really needs to be issued once: when the first limit is set.  In the
same spirit, we only need to issue mem_cgroup_put() when the last charge
is gone.

We'll need an extra bit in kmem_account_flags for that:
KMEM_ACCOUNTED_DEAD.  it will be set when the cgroup dies, if there are
charges in the group.  If there aren't, we can proceed right away.

Our uncharge function will have to test that bit every time the charges
drop to 0.  Because that is not the likely output of res_counter_uncharge,
this should not impose a big hit on us: it is certainly much better than a
reference count decrease at every operation.

6a1a0d3b62 mm: allocate kernel pages to the right memcg
When a process tries to allocate a page with the __GFP_KMEMCG flag, the
page allocator will call the corresponding memcg functions to validate
the allocation.  Tasks in the root memcg can always proceed.

To avoid adding markers to the page - and a kmem flag that would
necessarily follow, as much as doing page_cgroup lookups for no reason,
whoever is marking its allocations with __GFP_KMEMCG flag is responsible
for telling the page allocator that this is such an allocation at
free_pages() time.  This is done by the invocation of
__free_accounted_pages() and free_accounted_pages().

7ae1e1d0f8 memcg: kmem controller infrastructure
Introduce infrastructure for tracking kernel memory pages to a given
memcg.  This will happen whenever the caller includes the flag
__GFP_KMEMCG flag, and the task belong to a memcg other than the root.

In memcontrol.h those functions are wrapped in inline acessors.  The idea
is to later on, patch those with static branches, so we don't incur any
overhead when no mem cgroups with limited kmem are being used.

Users of this functionality shall interact with the memcg core code
through the following functions:

memcg_kmem_newpage_charge: will return true if the group can handle the
                           allocation. At this point, struct page is not
                           yet allocated.

memcg_kmem_commit_charge: will either revert the charge, if struct page
                          allocation failed, or embed memcg information
                          into page_cgroup.

memcg_kmem_uncharge_page: called at free time, will revert the charge.

510fc4e11b memcg: kmem accounting basic infrastructure
Add the basic infrastructure for the accounting of kernel memory.  To
control that, the following files are created:

 * memory.kmem.usage_in_bytes
 * memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes
 * memory.kmem.failcnt
 * memory.kmem.max_usage_in_bytes

They have the same meaning of their user memory counterparts.  They
reflect the state of the "kmem" res_counter.

Per cgroup kmem memory accounting is not enabled until a limit is set for
the group.  Once the limit is set the accounting cannot be disabled for
that group.  This means that after the patch is applied, no behavioral
changes exists for whoever is still using memcg to control their memory
usage, until memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes is set for the first time.

We always account to both user and kernel resource_counters.  This
effectively means that an independent kernel limit is in place when the
limit is set to a lower value than the user memory.  A equal or higher
value means that the user limit will always hit first, meaning that kmem
is effectively unlimited.

People who want to track kernel memory but not limit it, can set this
limit to a very high number (like RESOURCE_MAX - 1page - that no one will
ever hit, or equal to the user memory)

4c9c535968 memcg: reclaim when more than one page needed
mem_cgroup_do_charge() was written before kmem accounting, and expects
three cases: being called for 1 page, being called for a stock of 32
pages, or being called for a hugepage.  If we call for 2 or 3 pages (and
both the stack and several slabs used in process creation are such, at
least with the debug options I had), it assumed it's being called for
stock and just retried without reclaiming.

Fix that by passing down a minsize argument in addition to the csize.

And what to do about that (csize == PAGE_SIZE && ret) retry?  If it's
needed at all (and presumably is since it's there, perhaps to handle
races), then it should be extended to more than PAGE_SIZE, yet how far?
And should there be a retry count limit, of what?  For now retry up to
COSTLY_ORDER (as page_alloc.c does) and make sure not to do it if
__GFP_NORETRY.

v4: fixed nr pages calculation pointed out by Christoph Lameter.

a0956d5449 memcg: make it possible to use the stock for more than one page
We currently have a percpu stock cache scheme that charges one page at a
time from memcg->res, the user counter.  When the kernel memory controller
comes into play, we'll need to charge more than that.

This is because kernel memory allocations will also draw from the user
counter, and can be bigger than a single page, as it is the case with the
stack (usually 2 pages) or some higher order slabs.

0bb2c7637e mm/page_alloc.c: remove duplicate check
While allocating pages using buddy allocator, the compound page is
probably split up to free pages.  Under these circumstances, the compound
page should be destroyed by destroy_compound_page().  However, there is a
duplicate check to judge if the page is compound.

Remove the duplicate check since the compound_order() returns 0 when the
page doesn't have PG_head set in destroy_compound_page().  That is to say,
destroy_compound_page() needn't check PageHead().

change_huge_pmd(): make sure we don't try to make a page writable")
was trying to verify that newprot never adds write permission to an
anonymous huge page; but Automatic NUMA Balancing's 4b10e7d562 ("mm:
mempolicy: Implement change_prot_numa() in terms of change_protection()")
adds a new prot_numa path into change_huge_pmd(), which makes no use of
the newprot provided, and may retain the write bit in the pmd.

Just move the BUG_ON(pmd_write(entry)) up into the !prot_numa block.

Merge tag 'balancenuma-v11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mel/linux-balancenuma

Pull Automatic NUMA Balancing bare-bones from Mel Gorman:
 "There are three implementations for NUMA balancing, this tree
  (balancenuma), numacore which has been developed in tip/master and
  autonuma which is in aa.git.

  In almost all respects balancenuma is the dumbest of the three because
  its main impact is on the VM side with no attempt to be smart about
  scheduling.  In the interest of getting the ball rolling, it would be
  desirable to see this much merged for 3.8 with the view to building
  scheduler smarts on top and adapting the VM where required for 3.9.

  The most recent set of comparisons available from different people are

    mel:    https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/9/108
    mingo:  https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/7/331
    tglx:   https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/10/437
    srikar: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/10/397

  The results are a mixed bag.  In my own tests, balancenuma does
  reasonably well.  It's dumb as rocks and does not regress against
  mainline.  On the other hand, Ingo's tests shows that balancenuma is
  incapable of converging for this workloads driven by perf which is bad
  but is potentially explained by the lack of scheduler smarts.  Thomas'
  results show balancenuma improves on mainline but falls far short of
  numacore or autonuma.  Srikar's results indicate we all suffer on a
  large machine with imbalanced node sizes.

  My own testing showed that recent numacore results have improved
  dramatically, particularly in the last week but not universally.
  We've butted heads heavily on system CPU usage and high levels of
  migration even when it shows that overall performance is better.
  There are also cases where it regresses.  Of interest is that for
  specjbb in some configurations it will regress for lower numbers of
  warehouses and show gains for higher numbers which is not reported by
  the tool by default and sometimes missed in treports.  Recently I
  reported for numacore that the JVM was crashing with
  NullPointerExceptions but currently it's unclear what the source of
  this problem is.  Initially I thought it was in how numacore batch
  handles PTEs but I'm no longer think this is the case.  It's possible
  numacore is just able to trigger it due to higher rates of migration.

  These reports were quite late in the cycle so I/we would like to start
  with this tree as it contains much of the code we can agree on and has
  not changed significantly over the last 2-3 weeks."

Fix the warning from __list_del_entry() which is triggered when a process
tries to do free_huge_page() for a hwpoisoned hugepage.

free_huge_page() can be called for hwpoisoned hugepage from
unpoison_memory().  This function gets refcount once and clears
PageHWPoison, and then puts refcount twice to return the hugepage back to
free pool.  The second put_page() finally reaches free_huge_page().

When a process which used a hwpoisoned hugepage tries to exit() or

walker in free_pgtables() encounters 'hwpoisoned entry' on pmd.

This is because currently we fail to clear the hwpoisoned entry in

4128997b5f mm: protect against concurrent vma expansion
expand_stack() runs with a shared mmap_sem lock.  Because of this, there
could be multiple concurrent stack expansions in the same mm, which may
cause problems in the vma gap update code.

I propose to solve this by taking the mm->page_table_lock around such vma
expansions, in order to avoid the concurrency issue.  We only have to
worry about concurrent expand_stack() calls here, since we hold a shared
mmap_sem lock and all vma modificaitons other than expand_stack() are done
under an exclusive mmap_sem lock.

I previously tried to achieve the same effect by making sure all growable
vmas in a given mm would share the same anon_vma, which we already lock
here.  However this turned out to be difficult - all of the schemes I
tried for refcounting the growable anon_vma and clearing turned out ugly.
So, I'm now proposing only the minimal fix.

The overhead of taking the page table lock during stack expansion is
expected to be small: glibc doesn't use expandable stacks for the threads
it creates, so having multiple growable stacks is actually uncommon and we
don't expect the page table lock to get bounced between threads.

c95d26c2ff memcg: do not check for mm in __mem_cgroup_count_vm_event
The mm given to __mem_cgroup_count_vm_event() cannot be NULL because the
function is either called from the page fault path or vma->vm_mm is used.
So the check can be dropped.

The check was introduced by commit 456f998ec8 ("memcg: add the
pagefault count into memcg stats") because the originally proposed patch
used current->mm for shmem but this has been changed to vma->vm_mm later
on without the check being removed (thanks to Hugh for this
recollection).

Revert 3.5's commit f21f806220 ("tmpfs: revert SEEK_DATA and

generic_file_llseek_size().

In 3.8, ext4 is expected to join btrfs, ocfs2 and xfs with proper
SEEK_DATA and SEEK_HOLE support; and a good case has now been made for
it on tmpfs, so let's join the party.

It's quite easy for tmpfs to scan the radix_tree to support llseek's new
SEEK_DATA and SEEK_HOLE options: so add them while the minutiae are
still on my mind (in particular, the !PageUptodate-ness of pages
fallocated but still unwritten).

9feedc9d83 mm: introduce new field "managed_pages" to struct zone
Currently a zone's present_pages is calcuated as below, which is
inaccurate and may cause trouble to memory hotplug.

	spanned_pages - absent_pages - memmap_pages - dma_reserve.

During fixing bugs caused by inaccurate zone->present_pages, we found
zone->present_pages has been abused.  The field zone->present_pages may
have different meanings in different contexts:

1) pages existing in a zone.
2) pages managed by the buddy system.

For more discussions about the issue, please refer to:
  http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/5/866
  https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1346751/

This patchset tries to introduce a new field named "managed_pages" to
struct zone, which counts "pages managed by the buddy system".  And revert
zone->present_pages to count "physical pages existing in a zone", which
also keep in consistence with pgdat->node_present_pages.

We will set an initial value for zone->managed_pages in function
free_area_init_core() and will adjust it later if the initial value is
inaccurate.

For DMA/normal zones, the initial value is set to:

	(spanned_pages - absent_pages - memmap_pages - dma_reserve)

Later zone->managed_pages will be adjusted to the accurate value when the
bootmem allocator frees all free pages to the buddy system in function
free_all_bootmem_node() and free_all_bootmem().

The bootmem allocator doesn't touch highmem pages, so highmem zones'
managed_pages is set to the accurate value "spanned_pages - absent_pages"
in function free_area_init_core() and won't be updated anymore.

This patch also adds a new field "managed_pages" to /proc/zoneinfo
and sysrq showmem.

be used by the kernel and can't be offlined.  If the node only contains
movable memory, we can offline the memory and the node.

All are prepared, we can actually introduce N_MEMORY.

68ae564bba mm, memcg: avoid unnecessary function call when memcg is disabled
While profiling numa/core v16 with cgroup_disable=memory on the command
line, I noticed mem_cgroup_count_vm_event() still showed up as high as
0.60% in perftop.

This occurs because the function is called extremely often even when memcg
is disabled.

To fix this, inline the check for mem_cgroup_disabled() so we avoid the
unnecessary function call if memcg is disabled.

2897b4d29d mm: WARN_ON_ONCE if f_op->mmap() change vma's start address
During reviewing the source code, I found a comment which mention that
after f_op->mmap(), vma's start address can be changed.  I didn't verify
that it is really possible, because there are so many f_op->mmap()
implementation.  But if there are some mmap() which change vma's start
address, it is possible error situation, because we already prepare prev
vma, rb_link and rb_parent and these are related to original address.

So add WARN_ON_ONCE for finding that this situtation really happens.

97ae17497e thp: implement refcounting for huge zero page
H.  Peter Anvin doesn't like huge zero page which sticks in memory forever
after the first allocation.  Here's implementation of lockless refcounting
for huge zero page.

We have two basic primitives: {get,put}_huge_zero_page(). They
manipulate reference counter.

If counter is 0, get_huge_zero_page() allocates a new huge page and takes
two references: one for caller and one for shrinker.  We free the page
only in shrinker callback if counter is 1 (only shrinker has the
reference).

put_huge_zero_page() only decrements counter.  Counter is never zero in
put_huge_zero_page() since shrinker holds on reference.

Freeing huge zero page in shrinker callback helps to avoid frequent
allocate-free.

Refcounting has cost.  On 4 socket machine I observe ~1% slowdown on
parallel (40 processes) read page faulting comparing to lazy huge page
allocation.  I think it's pretty reasonable for synthetic benchmark.

4a6c129726 thp: huge zero page: basic preparation
During testing I noticed big (up to 2.5 times) memory consumption overhead
on some workloads (e.g.  ft.A from NPB) if THP is enabled.

The main reason for that big difference is lacking zero page in THP case.
We have to allocate a real page on read page fault.

A program to demonstrate the issue:
#include <assert.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>

#define MB 1024*1024

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
        char *p;
        int i;

        posix_memalign((void **)&p, 2 * MB, 200 * MB);
        for (i = 0; i < 200 * MB; i+= 4096)
                assert(p[i] == 0);
        pause();
        return 0;
}

With thp-never RSS is about 400k, but with thp-always it's 200M.  After
the patcheset thp-always RSS is 400k too.

Design overview.

Huge zero page (hzp) is a non-movable huge page (2M on x86-64) filled with
zeros.  The way how we allocate it changes in the patchset:

- [01/10] simplest way: hzp allocated on boot time in hugepage_init();
- [09/10] lazy allocation on first use;
- [10/10] lockless refcounting + shrinker-reclaimable hzp;

We setup it in do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page() if area around fault address
is suitable for THP and we've got read page fault.  If we fail to setup
hzp (ENOMEM) we fallback to handle_pte_fault() as we normally do in THP.

On wp fault to hzp we allocate real memory for the huge page and clear it.
 If ENOMEM, graceful fallback: we create a new pmd table and set pte
around fault address to newly allocated normal (4k) page.  All other ptes
in the pmd set to normal zero page.

We cannot split hzp (and it's bug if we try), but we can split the pmd
which points to it.  On splitting the pmd we create a table with all ptes
set to normal zero page.

By hpa's request I've tried alternative approach for hzp implementation
(see Virtual huge zero page patchset): pmd table with all entries set to
zero page.  This way should be more cache friendly, but it increases TLB
pressure.

The problem with virtual huge zero page: it requires per-arch enabling.
We need a way to mark that pmd table has all ptes set to zero page.

Some numbers to compare two implementations (on 4s Westmere-EX):

I personally prefer implementation present in this patchset. It doesn't
touch arch-specific code.

This patch:

Huge zero page (hzp) is a non-movable huge page (2M on x86-64) filled with
zeros.

For now let's allocate the page on hugepage_init().  We'll switch to lazy
allocation later.

We are not going to map the huge zero page until we can handle it properly
on all code paths.

is_huge_zero_{pfn,pmd}() functions will be used by following patches to
check whether the pfn/pmd is huge zero page.

3f7dfe24b8 bootmem: remove alloc_arch_preferred_bootmem()
The name of this function is not suitable, and removing the function and
open-coding it into each call sites makes the code more understandable.

Additionally, we shouldn't do an allocation from bootmem when
slab_is_available(), so directly return kmalloc()'s return value.

Pull cgroup changes from Tejun Heo:
 "A lot of activities on cgroup side.  The big changes are focused on
  making cgroup hierarchy handling saner.

   - cgroup_rmdir() had peculiar semantics - it allowed cgroup
     destruction to be vetoed by individual controllers and tried to
     drain refcnt synchronously.  The vetoing never worked properly and
     caused good deal of contortions in cgroup.  memcg was the last
     reamining user.  Michal Hocko removed the usage and cgroup_rmdir()
     path has been simplified significantly.  This was done in a
     separate branch so that the memcg people can base further memcg
     changes on top.

   - The above allowed cleaning up cgroup lifecycle management and
     implementation of generic cgroup iterators which are used to
     improve hierarchy support.

   - cgroup_freezer updated to allow migration in and out of a frozen
     cgroup and handle hierarchy.  If a cgroup is frozen, all descendant
     cgroups are frozen.

   - netcls_cgroup and netprio_cgroup updated to handle hierarchy
     properly.

   - Various fixes and cleanups.

   - Two merge commits.  One to pull in memcg and rmdir cleanups (needed
     to build iterators).  The other pulled in cgroup/for-3.7-fixes for
     device_cgroup fixes so that further device_cgroup patches can be
     stacked on top."

74d42d8fe1 memory_hotplug: ensure every online node has NORMAL memory
Old memory hotplug code and new online/movable may cause a online node
don't have any normal memory, but memory-management acts bad when we have
nodes which is online but don't have any normal memory.  Example: it may
cause a bound task fail on all kernel allocation and cause the task can't
create task or create other kernel object.

So we disable non-normal-memory-node here, we will enable it when we
prepared.

511c2aba8f mm, memory-hotplug: dynamic configure movable memory and portion memory
Add online_movable and online_kernel for logic memory hotplug.  This is
the dynamic version of "movablecore" & "kernelcore".

We have the same reason to introduce it as to introduce "movablecore" &
"kernelcore".  It has the same motive as "movablecore" & "kernelcore", but
it is dynamic/running-time:

o We can configure memory as kernelcore or movablecore after boot.

  Userspace workload is increased, we need more hugepage, we can't use
  "online_movable" to add memory and allow the system use more
  THP(transparent-huge-page), vice-verse when kernel workload is increase.

  Also help for virtualization to dynamic configure host/guest's memory,
  to save/(reduce waste) memory.

  Memory capacity on Demand

o When a new node is physically online after boot, we need to use
  "online_movable" or "online_kernel" to configure/portion it as we
  expected when we logic-online it.

  This configuration also helps for physically-memory-migrate.

o all benefit as the same as existed "movablecore" & "kernelcore".

o Preparing for movable-node, which is very important for power-saving,
  hardware partitioning and high-available-system(hardware fault
  management).

(Note, we don't introduce movable-node here.)

Action behavior:
When a memoryblock/memorysection is onlined by "online_movable", the kernel
will not have directly reference to the page of the memoryblock,
thus we can remove that memory any time when needed.

When it is online by "online_kernel", the kernel can use it.
When it is online by "online", the zone type doesn't changed.

Current constraints:
Only the memoryblock which is adjacent to the ZONE_MOVABLE
can be online from ZONE_NORMAL to ZONE_MOVABLE.

81df9bff26 bootmem: fix wrong call parameter for free_bootmem()
It is strange that alloc_bootmem() returns a virtual address and
free_bootmem() requires a physical address.  Anyway, free_bootmem()'s
first parameter should be physical address.

There are some call sites for free_bootmem() with virtual address.  So fix
them.

e1e12d2f31 mm, oom: fix race when specifying a thread as the oom origin
test_set_oom_score_adj() and compare_swap_oom_score_adj() are used to
specify that current should be killed first if an oom condition occurs in
between the two calls.

The usage is

	short oom_score_adj = test_set_oom_score_adj(OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX);
	...
	compare_swap_oom_score_adj(OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX, oom_score_adj);

to store the thread's oom_score_adj, temporarily change it to the maximum
score possible, and then restore the old value if it is still the same.

This happens to still be racy, however, if the user writes
OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX to /proc/pid/oom_score_adj in between the two calls.
The compare_swap_oom_score_adj() will then incorrectly reset the old value
prior to the write of OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX.

To fix this, introduce a new oom_flags_t member in struct signal_struct
that will be used for per-thread oom killer flags.  KSM and swapoff can
now use a bit in this member to specify that threads should be killed
first in oom conditions without playing around with oom_score_adj.

This also allows the correct oom_score_adj to always be shown when reading
/proc/pid/oom_score.

The PATCH "mm: introduce compaction and migration for virtio ballooned pages"
hacks around putback_lru_pages() in order to allow ballooned pages to be
re-inserted on balloon page list as if a ballooned page was like a LRU page.

As ballooned pages are not legitimate LRU pages, this patch introduces
putback_movable_pages() to properly cope with cases where the isolated
pageset contains ballooned pages and LRU pages, thus fixing the mentioned
inelegant hack around putback_lru_pages().

78bd52097d mm: adjust address_space_operations.migratepage() return code
Memory fragmentation introduced by ballooning might reduce significantly
the number of 2MB contiguous memory blocks that can be used within a
guest, thus imposing performance penalties associated with the reduced
number of transparent huge pages that could be used by the guest workload.

This patch-set follows the main idea discussed at 2012 LSFMMS session:
"Ballooning for transparent huge pages" -- http://lwn.net/Articles/490114/
to introduce the required changes to the virtio_balloon driver, as well as
the changes to the core compaction & migration bits, in order to make
those subsystems aware of ballooned pages and allow memory balloon pages
become movable within a guest, thus avoiding the aforementioned
fragmentation issue

Following are numbers that prove this patch benefits on allowing
compaction to be more effective at memory ballooned guests.

information to look up for suitable virtual address space gaps.

struct vm_unmapped_area_info is used to define the desired allocation
request:
 - lowest or highest possible address matching the remaining constraints
 - desired gap length
 - low/high address limits that the gap must fit into
 - alignment mask and offset

Also update the generic arch_get_unmapped_area[_topdown] functions to make
use of vm_unmapped_area() instead of implementing a brute force search.

d37371870c mm: augment vma rbtree with rb_subtree_gap
Define vma->rb_subtree_gap as the largest gap between any vma in the
subtree rooted at that vma, and their predecessor.  Or, for a recursive
definition, vma->rb_subtree_gap is the max of:

 - vma->vm_start - vma->vm_prev->vm_end
 - rb_subtree_gap fields of the vmas pointed by vma->rb.rb_left and
   vma->rb.rb_right

This will allow get_unmapped_area_* to find a free area of the right
size in O(log(N)) time, instead of potentially having to do a linear
walk across all the VMAs.

Also define mm->highest_vm_end as the vm_end field of the highest vma,
so that we can easily check if the following gap is suitable.

This does have the potential to make unmapping VMAs more expensive,
especially for processes with very large numbers of VMAs, where the VMA
rbtree can grow quite deep.

42d7395feb mm: support more pagesizes for MAP_HUGETLB/SHM_HUGETLB
There was some desire in large applications using MAP_HUGETLB or
SHM_HUGETLB to use 1GB huge pages on some mappings, and stay with 2MB on
others.  This is useful together with NUMA policy: use 2MB interleaving
on some mappings, but 1GB on local mappings.

This patch extends the IPC/SHM syscall interfaces slightly to allow
specifying the page size.

It borrows some upper bits in the existing flag arguments and allows
encoding the log of the desired page size in addition to the *_HUGETLB
flag.  When 0 is specified the default size is used, this makes the
change fully compatible.

Extending the internal hugetlb code to handle this is straight forward.
Instead of a single mount it just keeps an array of them and selects the
right mount based on the specified page size.  When no page size is
specified it uses the mount of the default page size.

The change is not visible in /proc/mounts because internal mounts don't
appear there.  It also has very little overhead: the additional mounts
just consume a super block, but not more memory when not used.

I also exported the new flags to the user headers (they were previously
under __KERNEL__).  Right now only symbols for x86 and some other
architecture for 1GB and 2MB are defined.  The interface should already
work for all other architectures though.  Only architectures that define
multiple hugetlb sizes actually need it (that is currently x86, tile,
powerpc).  However tile and powerpc have user configurable hugetlb
sizes, so it's not easy to add defines.  A program on those
architectures would need to query sysfs and use the appropiate log2.

ff604cf6d4 mm: hwpoison: fix action_result() to print out dirty/clean
action_result() fails to print out "dirty" even if an error occurred on
a dirty pagecache, because when we check PageDirty in action_result() it
was cleared after page isolation even if it's dirty before error
handling.  This can break some applications that monitor this message,
so should be fixed.

There are several callers of action_result() except page_action(), but
either of them are not for LRU pages but for free pages or kernel pages,
so we don't have to consider dirty or not for them.

Note that PG_dirty can be set outside page locks as described in commit
6746aff74d ("HWPOISON: shmem: call set_page_dirty() with locked
page"), so this patch does not completely closes the race window, but
just narrows it.

9ff4868e30 mm, oom: allow exiting threads to have access to memory reserves
Exiting threads, those with PF_EXITING set, can pagefault and require
memory before they can make forward progress.  This happens, for instance,
when a process must fault task->robust_list, a userspace structure, before
detaching its memory.

These threads also aren't guaranteed to get access to memory reserves
unless oom killed or killed from userspace.  The oom killer won't grant
memory reserves if other threads are also exiting other than current and
stalling at the same point.  This prevents needlessly killing processes
when others are already exiting.

Instead of special casing all the possible situations between PF_EXITING
getting set and a thread detaching its mm where it may allocate memory,
which probably wouldn't get updated when a change is made to the exit
path, the solution is to give all exiting threads access to memory
reserves if they call the oom killer.  This allows them to quickly
allocate, detach its mm, and free the memory it represents.

Summary of Luigi's bug report:

: He had an oom condition where threads were faulting on task->robust_list
: and repeatedly called the oom killer but it would defer killing a thread
: because it saw other PF_EXITING threads.  This can happen anytime we need
: to allocate memory after setting PF_EXITING and before detaching our mm;
: if there are other threads in the same state then the oom killer won't do
: anything unless one of them happens to be killed from userspace.
:
: So instead of only deferring for PF_EXITING and !task->robust_list, it's
: better to just give them access to memory reserves to prevent a potential
: livelock so that any other faults that may be introduced in the future in
: the exit path don't cause the same problem (and hopefully we don't allow
: too many of those!).

a1dd450bcb mm: thp: set the accessed flag for old pages on access fault
On x86 memory accesses to pages without the ACCESSED flag set result in
the ACCESSED flag being set automatically.  With the ARM architecture a
page access fault is raised instead (and it will continue to be raised
until the ACCESSED flag is set for the appropriate PTE/PMD).

For normal memory pages, handle_pte_fault will call pte_mkyoung
(effectively setting the ACCESSED flag).  For transparent huge pages,
pmd_mkyoung will only be called for a write fault.

This patch ensures that faults on transparent hugepages which do not
result in a CoW update the access flags for the faulting pmd.

eb2db439a3 mm, highmem: get virtual address of the page using PKMAP_ADDR()
In flush_all_zero_pkmaps(), we have an index of the pkmap associated with
the page.  Using this index, we can simply get virtual address of the
page.  So change it.
