cc03638df2 mm: check if PTE is already allocated during page fault
With transparent hugepage support, handle_mm_fault() has to be careful
that a normal PMD has been established before handling a PTE fault.  To
achieve this, it used __pte_alloc() directly instead of pte_alloc_map as
pte_alloc_map is unsafe to run against a huge PMD.  pte_offset_map() is
called once it is known the PMD is safe.

pte_alloc_map() is smart enough to check if a PTE is already present
before calling __pte_alloc but this check was lost.  As a consequence,
PTEs may be allocated unnecessarily and the page table lock taken.  Thi
useless PTE does get cleaned up but it's a performance hit which is
visible in page_test from aim9.

This patch simply re-adds the check normally done by pte_alloc_map to
check if the PTE needs to be allocated before taking the page table lock.
The effect is noticable in page_test from aim9.

f755a042d8 oom: use pte pages in OOM score
PTE pages eat up memory just like anything else, but we do not account for
them in any way in the OOM scores.  They are also _guaranteed_ to get

78f11a2557 mm: thp: fix /dev/zero MAP_PRIVATE and vm_flags cleanups
The huge_memory.c THP page fault was allowed to run if vm_ops was null
(which would succeed for /dev/zero MAP_PRIVATE, as the f_op->mmap wouldn't
setup a special vma->vm_ops and it would fallback to regular anonymous
memory) but other THP logics weren't fully activated for vmas with vm_file
not NULL (/dev/zero has a not NULL vma->vm_file).

So this removes the vm_file checks so that /dev/zero also can safely use
THP (the other albeit safer approach to fix this bug would have been to
prevent the THP initial page fault to run if vm_file was set).

After removing the vm_file checks, this also makes huge_memory.c stricter
in khugepaged for the DEBUG_VM=y case.  It doesn't replace the vm_file
check with a is_pfn_mapping check (but it keeps checking for VM_PFNMAP
under VM_BUG_ON) because for a is_cow_mapping() mapping VM_PFNMAP should
only be allowed to exist before the first page fault, and in turn when
vma->anon_vma is null (so preventing khugepaged registration).  So I tend
to think the previous comment saying if vm_file was set, VM_PFNMAP might
have been set and we could still be registered in khugepaged (despite
anon_vma was not NULL to be registered in khugepaged) was too paranoid.
The is_linear_pfn_mapping check is also I think superfluous (as described
by comment) but under DEBUG_VM it is safe to stay.

341aea2bc4 oom-kill: remove boost_dying_task_prio()
This is an almost-revert of commit 93b43fa ("oom: give the dying task a
higher priority").

That commit dramatically improved oom killer logic when a fork-bomb
occurs.  But I've found that it has nasty corner case.  Now cpu cgroup has
strange default RT runtime.  It's 0!  That said, if a process under cpu
cgroup promote RT scheduling class, the process never run at all.

If an admin inserts a !RT process into a cpu cgroup by setting
rtruntime=0, usually it runs perfectly because a !RT task isn't affected
by the rtruntime knob.  But if it promotes an RT task via an explicit
setscheduler() syscall or an OOM, the task can't run at all.  In short,
the oom killer doesn't work at all if admins are using cpu cgroup and don't
touch the rtruntime knob.

Eventually, kernel may hang up when oom kill occur.  I and the original
author Luis agreed to disable this logic.

929bea7c71 vmscan: all_unreclaimable() use zone->all_unreclaimable as a name
all_unreclaimable check in direct reclaim has been introduced at 2.6.19
by following commit.

	2006 Sep 25; commit 408d8544; oom: use unreclaimable info

And it went through strange history. firstly, following commit broke
the logic unintentionally.

	2008 Apr 29; commit a41f24ea; page allocator: smarter retry of
				      costly-order allocations

Two years later, I've found obvious meaningless code fragment and
restored original intention by following commit.

	2010 Jun 04; commit bb21c7ce; vmscan: fix do_try_to_free_pages()
				      return value when priority==0

But, the logic didn't works when 32bit highmem system goes hibernation
and Minchan slightly changed the algorithm and fixed it .

	2010 Sep 22: commit d1908362: vmscan: check all_unreclaimable
				      in direct reclaim path

But, recently, Andrey Vagin found the new corner case. Look,

	struct zone {
	  ..
	        int                     all_unreclaimable;
	  ..
	        unsigned long           pages_scanned;
	  ..
	}

zone->all_unreclaimable and zone->pages_scanned are neigher atomic
variables nor protected by lock.  Therefore zones can become a state of
zone->page_scanned=0 and zone->all_unreclaimable=1.  In this case, current
all_unreclaimable() return false even though zone->all_unreclaimabe=1.

This resulted in the kernel hanging up when executing a loop of the form

1. fork
2. mmap
3. touch memory
4. read memory
5. munmmap

as described in
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1348725#1348725

Is this ignorable minor issue?  No.  Unfortunately, x86 has very small dma
zone and it become zone->all_unreclamble=1 easily.  and if it become
all_unreclaimable=1, it never restore all_unreclaimable=0.  Why?  if
all_unreclaimable=1, vmscan only try DEF_PRIORITY reclaim and
a-few-lru-pages>>DEF_PRIORITY always makes 0.  that mean no page scan at
all!

Eventually, oom-killer never works on such systems.  That said, we can't
use zone->pages_scanned for this purpose.  This patch restore
all_unreclaimable() use zone->all_unreclaimable as old.  and in addition,
to add oom_killer_disabled check to avoid reintroduce the issue of commit
d1908362 ("vmscan: check all_unreclaimable in direct reclaim path").

fe936dfc23 mm: check that we have the right vma in __access_remote_vm()
In __access_remote_vm() we need to check that we have found the right
vma, not the following vma before we try to access it.  Otherwise we
might call the vma's access routine with an address which does not fall
inside the vma.

It was discovered on a current kernel but with an unreleased driver,
from memory it was strace leading to a kernel bad access, but it
obviously depends on what the access implementation does.

Looking at other access implementations I only see:

  $ git grep -A 5 vm_operations|grep access
  arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spufs/file.c-	.access = spufs_mem_mmap_access,
  arch/x86/pci/i386.c-	.access = generic_access_phys,
  drivers/char/mem.c-	.access = generic_access_phys
  fs/sysfs/bin.c-	.access		= bin_access,

The spufs one looks like it might behave badly given the wrong vma, it
assumes vma->vm_file->private_data is a spu_context, and looks like it
would probably blow up pretty quickly if it wasn't.

generic_access_phys() only uses the vma to check vm_flags and get the
mm, and then walks page tables using the address.  So it should bail on
the vm_flags check, or at worst let you access some other VM_IO mapping.

And bin_access() just proxies to another access implementation.

4471a675df brk: COMPAT_BRK: fix detection of randomized brk
5520e89 ("brk: fix min_brk lower bound computation for COMPAT_BRK")
tried to get the whole logic of brk randomization for legacy
(libc5-based) applications finally right.

It turns out that the way to detect whether brk has actually been
randomized in the end or not introduced by that patch still doesn't work
for those binaries, as reported by Geert:

: /sbin/init from my old m68k ramdisk exists prematurely.
:
: Before the patch:
:
: | brk(0x80005c8e)                         = 0x80006000
:
: After the patch:
:
: | brk(0x80005c8e)                         = 0x80005c8e
:
: Old libc5 considers brk() to have failed if the return value is not
: identical to the requested value.

I don't like it, but currently see no better option than a bit flag in
task_struct to catch the CONFIG_COMPAT_BRK && randomize_va_space == 2
case.

9f6ae448bf mm/page_alloc.c: silence build_all_zonelists() section mismatch
The memory hotplug case involves calling to build_all_zonelists() which
in turns calls in to setup_zone_pageset().  The latter is marked
__meminit while build_all_zonelists() itself has no particular
annotation.  build_all_zonelists() is only handed a non-NULL pointer in
the case of memory hotplug through an existing __meminit path, so the
setup_zone_pageset() reference is always safe.

The options as such are either to flag build_all_zonelists() as __ref (as
per __build_all_zonelists()), or to simply discard the __meminit
annotation from setup_zone_pageset().

95042f9eb7 vm: fix mlock() on stack guard page
Commit 53a7706d5e ("mlock: do not hold mmap_sem for extended periods
of time") changed mlock() to care about the exact number of pages that
__get_user_pages() had brought it.  Before, it would only care about
errors.

And that doesn't work, because we also handled one page specially in
__mlock_vma_pages_range(), namely the stack guard page.  So when that
case was handled, the number of pages that the function returned was off
by one.  In particular, it could be zero, and then the caller would end
up not making any progress at all.

Rather than try to fix up that off-by-one error for the mlock case
specially, this just moves the logic to handle the stack guard page
into__get_user_pages() itself, thus making all the counts come out
right automatically.

982134ba62 mm: avoid wrapping vm_pgoff in mremap()
The normal mmap paths all avoid creating a mapping where the pgoff
inside the mapping could wrap around due to overflow.  However, an
expanding mremap() can take such a non-wrapping mapping and make it
bigger and cause a wrapping condition.

Noticed by Robert Swiecki when running a system call fuzzer, where it
caused a BUG_ON() due to terminally confusing the vma_prio_tree code.  A
vma dumping patch by Hugh then pinpointed the crazy wrapped case.

eac522ef43 NOMMU: percpu should use is_vmalloc_addr().
per_cpu_ptr_to_phys() uses VMALLOC_START and VMALLOC_END to determine if an
address is in the vmalloc() region or not.  This is incorrect on NOMMU as
there is no real vmalloc() capability (vmalloc() is emulated by kmalloc()).

The correct way to do this is to use is_vmalloc_addr().  This encapsulates the
vmalloc() region test in MMU mode and just returns 0 in NOMMU mode.

On FRV in NOMMU mode, the percpu compilation fails without this patch:

inode_wb_list_lock and use it to protect the list manipulations and

250df6ed27 fs: protect inode->i_state with inode->i_lock
Protect inode state transitions and validity checks with the
inode->i_lock. This enables us to make inode state transitions
independently of the inode_lock and is the first step to peeling
away the inode_lock from the code.

This requires that __iget() is done atomically with i_state checks
during list traversals so that we don't race with another thread
marking the inode I_FREEING between the state check and grabbing the
reference.

Also remove the unlock_new_inode() memory barrier optimisation
required to avoid taking the inode_lock when clearing I_NEW.
Simplify the code by simply taking the inode->i_lock around the
state change and wakeup. Because the wakeup is no longer tricky,
remove the wake_up_inode() function and open code the wakeup where
necessary.

b2b755b5f1 lib, arch: add filter argument to show_mem and fix private implementations
Commit ddd588b5dd ("oom: suppress nodes that are not allowed from
meminfo on oom kill") moved lib/show_mem.o out of lib/lib.a, which
resulted in build warnings on all architectures that implement their own
versions of show_mem():

	lib/lib.a(show_mem.o): In function `show_mem':
	show_mem.c:(.text+0x1f4): multiple definition of `show_mem'
	arch/sparc/mm/built-in.o:(.text+0xd70): first defined here

The fix is to remove __show_mem() and add its argument to show_mem() in
all implementations to prevent this breakage.

Architectures that implement their own show_mem() actually don't do
anything with the argument yet, but they could be made to filter nodes
that aren't allowed in the current context in the future just like the
generic implementation.

b8c4c96ed4 SLUB: Write to per cpu data when allocating it
It turns out that the cmpxchg16b emulation has to access vmalloced
percpu memory with interrupts disabled. If the memory has never
been touched before then the fault necessary to establish the
mapping will not to occur and the kernel will fail on boot.

Fix that by reusing the CONFIG_PREEMPT code that writes the
cpu number into a field on every cpu. Writing to the per cpu
area before causes the mapping to be established before we get
to a cmpxchg16b emulation.

0415b00d17 percpu: Always align percpu output section to PAGE_SIZE
Percpu allocator honors alignment request upto PAGE_SIZE and both the
percpu addresses in the percpu address space and the translated kernel
addresses should be aligned accordingly.  The calculation of the
former depends on the alignment of percpu output section in the kernel
image.

The linker script macros PERCPU_VADDR() and PERCPU() are used to
define this output section and the latter takes @align parameter.
Several architectures are using @align smaller than PAGE_SIZE breaking
percpu memory alignment.

This patch removes @align parameter from PERCPU(), renames it to
PERCPU_SECTION() and makes it always align to PAGE_SIZE.  While at it,
add PCPU_SETUP_BUG_ON() checks such that alignment problems are
reliably detected and remove percpu alignment comment recently added
in workqueue.c as the condition would trigger BUG way before reaching
there.

For um, this patch raises the alignment of percpu area.  As the area
is in .init, there shouldn't be any noticeable difference.

This problem was discovered by David Howells while debugging boot
failure on mn10300.

93a72052be crash_dump: export is_kdump_kernel to modules, consolidate elfcorehdr_addr, setup_elfcorehdr and saved_max_pfn
The Xen PV drivers in a crashed HVM guest can not connect to the dom0
backend drivers because both frontend and backend drivers are still in
connected state.  To run the connection reset function only in case of a
crashdump, the is_kdump_kernel() function needs to be available for the PV
driver modules.

Consolidate elfcorehdr_addr, setup_elfcorehdr and saved_max_pfn into
kernel/crash_dump.c Also export elfcorehdr_addr to make is_kdump_kernel()
usable for modules.

Leave 'elfcorehdr' as early_param().  This changes powerpc from __setup()
to early_param().  It adds an address range check from x86 also on ia64
and powerpc.

f9434ad155 memcg: give current access to memory reserves if it's trying to die
When a memcg is oom and current has already received a SIGKILL, then give
it access to memory reserves with a higher scheduling priority so that it
may quickly exit and free its memory.

This is identical to the global oom killer and is done even before
checking for panic_on_oom: a pending SIGKILL here while panic_on_oom is
selected is guaranteed to have come from userspace; the thread only needs
access to memory reserves to exit and thus we don't unnecessarily panic
the machine until the kernel has no last resort to free memory.

5a6475a4e1 memcg: fix leak on wrong LRU with FUSE
fs/fuse/dev.c::fuse_try_move_page() does

   (1) remove a page by ->steal()
   (2) re-add the page to page cache
   (3) link the page to LRU if it was not on LRU at (1)

This implies the page is _on_ LRU when it's added to radix-tree.  So, the
page is added to memory cgroup while it's on LRU.  because LRU is lazy and
no one flushs it.

This is the same behavior as SwapCache and needs special care as
 - remove page from LRU before overwrite pc->mem_cgroup.
 - add page to LRU after overwrite pc->mem_cgroup.

And we need to taking care of pagevec.

If PageLRU(page) is set before we add PCG_USED bit, the page will not be
added to memcg's LRU (in short period).  So, regardlress of PageLRU(page)
value before commit_charge(), we need to check PageLRU(page) after
commit_charge().

dde79e005a page_cgroup: reduce allocation overhead for page_cgroup array for CONFIG_SPARSEMEM
Currently we are allocating a single page_cgroup array per memory section
(stored in mem_section->base) when CONFIG_SPARSEMEM is selected.  This is
correct but memory inefficient solution because the allocated memory
(unless we fall back to vmalloc) is not kmalloc friendly:

        - 32b - 16384 entries (20B per entry) fit into 327680B so the
          524288B slab cache is used
        - 32b with PAE - 131072 entries with 2621440B fit into 4194304B
        - 64b - 32768 entries (40B per entry) fit into 2097152 cache

This is ~37% wasted space per memory section and it sumps up for the whole
memory.  On a x86_64 machine it is something like 6MB per 1GB of RAM.

We can reduce the internal fragmentation by using alloc_pages_exact which
allocates PAGE_SIZE aligned blocks so we will get down to <4kB wasted
memory per section which is much better.

We still need a fallback to vmalloc because we have no guarantees that we
will have a continuous memory of that size (order-10) later on during the
hotplug events.

e9f8974f2f memcg: break out event counters from other stats
For increasing and decreasing per-cpu cgroup usage counters it makes sense
to use signed types, as single per-cpu values might go negative during
updates.  But this is not the case for only-ever-increasing event
counters.

All the counters have been signed 64-bit so far, which was enough to count
events even with the sign bit wasted.

This patch:
- divides s64 counters into signed usage counters and unsigned
  monotonically increasing event counters.
- converts unsigned event counters into 'unsigned long' rather than
  'u64'.  This matches the type used by the /proc/vmstat event counters.

The next patch narrows the signed usage counters type (on 32-bit CPUs,
that is).

then calls the first one.  This is trivial, no need for an extra function.

6b3ae58efc memcg: remove direct page_cgroup-to-page pointer
In struct page_cgroup, we have a full word for flags but only a few are
reserved.  Use the remaining upper bits to encode, depending on
configuration, the node or the section, to enable page_cgroup-to-page
lookups without a direct pointer.

This saves a full word for every page in a system with memory cgroups

5564e88ba6 memcg: condense page_cgroup-to-page lookup points
The per-cgroup LRU lists string up 'struct page_cgroup's.  To get from
those structures to the page they represent, a lookup is required.
Currently, the lookup is done through a direct pointer in struct
page_cgroup, so a lot of functions down the callchain do this lookup by
themselves instead of receiving the page pointer from their callers.

The next patch removes this pointer, however, and the lookup is no longer
that straight-forward.  In preparation for that, this patch only leaves
the non-optional lookups when coming directly from the LRU list and passes
the page down the stack.

This has the advantage that reading pc->mem_cgroup is now done at the same

ad324e9447 memcg: no uncharged pages reach page_cgroup_zoneinfo
This patch series removes the direct page pointer from struct page_cgroup,
which saves 20% of per-page memcg memory overhead (Fedora and Ubuntu
enable memcg per default, openSUSE apparently too).

The node id or section number is encoded in the remaining free bits of
pc->flags which allows calculating the corresponding page without the
extra pointer.

I ran, what I think is, a worst-case microbenchmark that just cats a large
sparse file to /dev/null, because it means that walking the LRU list on
behalf of per-cgroup reclaim and looking up pages from page_cgroups is
happening constantly and at a high rate.  But it made no measurable
difference.  A profile reported a 0.11% share of the new
lookup_cgroup_page() function in this benchmark.

This patch:

All callsites check PCG_USED before passing pc->mem_cgroup, so the latter
is never NULL.

charged) from the view point of memcg.

This check may be useful in debugging a problem and we did similar checks

This patch adds some overheads at allocating or freeing memory, so it's

9d11ea9f16 memcg: simplify the way memory limits are checked
Since transparent huge pages, checking whether memory cgroups are below
their limits is no longer enough, but the actual amount of chargeable
space is important.

To not have more than one limit-checking interface, replace
memory_cgroup_check_under_limit() and memory_cgroup_check_margin() with a
single memory_cgroup_margin() that returns the chargeable space and leaves
the comparison to the callsite.

Soft limits are now checked the other way round, by using the already
existing function that returns the amount by which soft limits are
exceeded: res_counter_soft_limit_excess().

Also remove all the corresponding functions on the res_counter side that
are now no longer used.

2130781e2a sys_swapon: fix inode locking
A conflict between 52c50567d8 ("mm: swap: unlock swapfile inode mutex
before closing file on bad swapfiles") and 83ef99befc ("sys_swapon:
remove did_down variable") caused a double unlock of the inode mutex
(once in bad_swap: before the filp_close, once at the end just before
returning).

The patch which added the extra unlock cleared did_down to avoid
unlocking twice, but the other patch removed the did_down variable.

To fix, set inode to NULL after the first unlock, since it will be used
after that point only for the final unlock.

While checking this patch, I found a path which could unlock without
locking, in case the same inode was added as a swapfile twice. To fix,
move the setting of the inode variable further down, to just before
claim_swapfile, which will lock the inode before doing anything else.

8f7a66051b mm/memblock: properly handle overlaps and fix error path
Currently memblock_reserve() or memblock_free() don't handle overlaps of
any kind.  There is some special casing for coalescing exactly adjacent
regions but that's about it.

This is annoying because typically memblock_reserve() is used to mark
regions passed by the firmware as reserved and we all know how much we can
trust our firmwares...

Also, with the current code, if we do something it doesn't handle right
such as trying to memblock_reserve() a large range spanning multiple
existing smaller reserved regions for example, or doing overlapping
reservations, it can silently corrupt the internal region array, causing
odd errors much later on, such as allocations returning reserved regions
etc...

This patch rewrites the underlying functions that add or remove a region
to the arrays.  The new code is a lot more robust as it fully handles
overlapping regions.  It's also, imho, simpler than the previous
implementation.

In addition, while doing so, I found a bug where if we fail to double the
array while adding a region, we would remove the last region of the array
rather than the region we just allocated.  This fixes it too.

cf15b07cf4 writeback: make mapping->writeback_index to point to the last written page
For range-cyclic writeback (e.g.  kupdate), the writeback code sets a
continuation point of the next writeback to mapping->writeback_index which
is set the page after the last written page.  This happens so that we
evenly write the whole file even if pages in it get continuously
redirtied.

However, in some cases, sequential writer is writing in the middle of the
page and it just redirties the last written page by continuing from that.
For example with an application which uses a file as a big ring buffer we
see:

So we seeked back to 94898554 after we wrote all the pages at the end of
the file.

This extra seek seems unnecessary.  If we continue writeback from the last
written page, we can avoid it and do not cause harm to other cases.  The
original intent of even writeout over the whole file is preserved and if
the page does not get redirtied pagevec_lookup_tag() just skips it.

As an exceptional case, when I/O error happens, set done_index to the next
page as the comment in the code suggests.

24b8ff7c27 mm: remove inline from scan_swap_map()
scan_swap_map() is a large function (224 lines), with several loops and a
complex control flow involving several gotos.

Given all that, it is a bit silly that it is marked as inline.  The
compiler agrees with me: on a x86-64 compile, it did not inline the
function.

Remove the "inline" and let the compiler decide instead.

re-inserts it again at sys_swapoff on failure of try_to_unuse(), except

1421ef3cd1 sys_swapon: call swap_cgroup_swapon() earlier
The call to swap_cgroup_swapon is in the middle of loading the swap map
and extents. As it only does memory allocation and does not depend on
the swapfile layout (map/extents), it can be called earlier (or later).

Move it to just after the allocation of swap_map, since it is
conceptually similar (allocates a map).

bd69010b04 sys_swapon: use a single error label
sys_swapon currently has two error labels, bad_swap and bad_swap_2.
bad_swap does the same as bad_swap_2 plus destroy_swap_extents() and
swap_cgroup_swapoff(); both are noops in the places where bad_swap_2 is
jumped to. With a single extra test for inode (matching the one in the
S_ISREG case below), all the error paths in the function can go to
bad_swap.

9b01c350af sys_swapon: do only cleanup in the cleanup blocks
The only way error is 0 in the cleanup blocks is when the function is
returning successfully. In this case, the cleanup blocks were setting
S_SWAPFILE in the S_ISREG case. But this is not a cleanup.

Move the setting of S_SWAPFILE to just before the "goto out;" to make
this more clear. At this point, we do not need to test for inode because
it will never be NULL.
