Currently a statfs on a pipe's /proc/<pid>/fd/ link returns -ENOSYS. Wire
pipfs up so that the statfs succeeds.
This is required by checkpoint-restart in the userspace to make it
possible to distinguish pipes from fifos.
When we dump information about task's open files we use the /proc/pid/fd
directoy's symlinks and the fact that opening any of them gives us exactly
the same dentry->inode pair as the original process has. Now if a task
we're dumping has opened pipe and fifo we need to detect this and act
accordingly. Knowing that an fd with type S_ISFIFO resides on a pipefs is
the most precise way.

A process spent 30 minutes exiting, just munlocking the pages of a large
anonymous area that had been alternately mprotected into page-sized vmas:
for every single page there's an anon_vma walk through all the other
little vmas to find the right one.
A general fix to that would be a lot more complicated (use prio_tree on
anon_vma?), but there's one very simple thing we can do to speed up the
common case: if a page to be munlocked is mapped only once, then it is our
vma that it is mapped into, and there's no need whatever to walk through
all the others.
Okay, there is a very remote race in munlock_vma_pages_range(), if between
its follow_page() and lock_page(), another process were to munlock the
same page, then page reclaim remove it from our vma, then another process
mlock it again. We would find it with page_mapcount 1, yet it's still
mlocked in another process. But never mind, that's much less likely than
the down_read_trylock() failure which munlocking already tolerates (in
try_to_unmap_one()): in due course page reclaim will discover and move the
page to unevictable instead.

There are three cases of update_mmu_cache() in the file, and the case in

which is corrected based on the other two cases.
Due to the define of update_mmu_cache by X86, the only arch that
implements THP currently, the change here has no really crystal point, but
one or two minutes of efforts could be saved for those archs that are
likely to support THP in future.

When suffering from memory fragmentation due to unfreeable pages, THP page
faults will repeatedly try to compact memory. Due to the unfreeable
pages, compaction fails.
Needless to say, at that point page reclaim also fails to create free
contiguous 2MB areas. However, that doesn't stop the current code from
trying, over and over again, and freeing a minimum of 4MB (2UL <<
sc->order pages) at every single invocation.
This resulted in my 12GB system having 2-3GB free memory, a corresponding
amount of used swap and very sluggish response times.
This can be avoided by having the direct reclaim code not reclaim from
zones that already have plenty of free memory available for compaction.
If compaction still fails due to unmovable memory, doing additional
reclaim will only hurt the system, not help.

When a race between putback_lru_page() and shmem_lock with lock=0 happens,
progrom execution order is as follows, but clear_bit in processor #1 could
be reordered right before spin_unlock of processor #1. Then, the page
would be stranded on the unevictable list.
spin_lock
SetPageLRU
spin_unlock
clear_bit(AS_UNEVICTABLE)
spin_lock
if PageLRU()
if !test_bit(AS_UNEVICTABLE)
move evictable list
smp_mb
if !test_bit(AS_UNEVICTABLE)
move evictable list
spin_unlock
But, pagevec_lookup() in scan_mapping_unevictable_pages() has
rcu_read_[un]lock() so it could protect reordering before reaching
test_bit(AS_UNEVICTABLE) on processor #1 so this problem never happens.
But it's a unexpected side effect and we should solve this problem
properly.
This patch adds a barrier after mapping_clear_unevictable.
I didn't meet this problem but just found during review.

At one point, anonymous pages were supposed to go on the unevictable list
when no swap space was configured, and the idea was to manually rescue
those pages after adding swap and making them evictable again. But
nowadays, swap-backed pages on the anon LRU list are not scanned without
available swap space anyway, so there is no point in moving them to a
separate list anymore.
The manual rescue could also be used in case pages were stranded on the
unevictable list due to race conditions. But the code has been around for
a while now and newly discovered bugs should be properly reported and
dealt with instead of relying on such a manual fixup.
In addition to the lack of a usecase, the sysfs interface to rescue pages
from a specific NUMA node has been broken since its introduction, so it's
unlikely that anybody ever relied on that.
This patch removes the functionality behind the sysctl and the
node-interface and emits a one-time warning when somebody tries to access
either of them.

write_scan_unevictable_node() checks the value req returned by
strict_strtoul() and returns 1 if req is 0.
However, when strict_strtoul() returns 0, it means successful conversion
of buf to unsigned long.
Due to this, the function was not proceeding to scan the zones for
unevictable pages even though we write a valid value to the
scan_unevictable_pages sys file.
Change this check slightly to check for invalid value in buf as well as 0
value stored in res after successful conversion via strict_strtoul. In
both cases, we do not perform the scanning of this node's zones.

There 2 places to read pgdat in kswapd. One is return from a successful
balance, another is waked up from kswapd sleeping. The new_order and
new_classzone_idx represent the balance input order and classzone_idx.
But current new_order and new_classzone_idx are not assigned after
kswapd_try_to_sleep(), that will cause a bug in the following scenario.
1: after a successful balance, kswapd goes to sleep, and new_order = 0;
new_classzone_idx = __MAX_NR_ZONES - 1;
2: kswapd waked up with order = 3 and classzone_idx = ZONE_NORMAL
3: in the balance_pgdat() running, a new balance wakeup happened with
order = 5, and classzone_idx = ZONE_NORMAL
4: the first wakeup(order = 3) finished successufly, return order = 3
but, the new_order is still 0, so, this balancing will be treated as a
failed balance. And then the second tighter balancing will be missed.
So, to avoid the above problem, the new_order and new_classzone_idx need
to be assigned for later successful comparison.

4, balance_pgdat() returns but failed since returned order = 0

moved without a split but that is an hardware limitation.

This replaces ptep_clear_flush() with ptep_get_and_clear() and a single
flush_tlb_range() at the end of the loop, to avoid sending one IPI for
each page.
The mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start/end section is enlarged
accordingly but this is not going to fundamentally change things. It was
more by accident that the region under mremap was for the most part still
available for secondary MMUs: the primary MMU was never allowed to
reliably access that region for the duration of the mremap (modulo
trapping SIGSEGV on the old address range which sounds unpractical and
flakey). If users wants secondary MMUs not to lose access to a large
region under mremap they should reduce the mremap size accordingly in
userland and run multiple calls. Overall this will run faster so it's
actually going to reduce the time the region is under mremap for the
primary MMU which should provide a net benefit to apps.
For KVM this is a noop because the guest physical memory is never
mremapped, there's just no point it ever moving it while guest runs. One
target of this optimization is JVM GC (so unrelated to the mmu notifier
logic).

Using "- 1" relies on the old_end to be page aligned and PAGE_SIZE > 1,
those are reasonable requirements but the check remains obscure and it
looks more like an off by one error than an overflow check. This I feel
will improve readability.

With the NO_BOOTMEM symbol added architectures may now use the following
syntax to tell that they do not need bootmem:
select NO_BOOTMEM
This is much more convinient than adding a new kconfig symbol which was
otherwise required.
Adding this symbol does not conflict with the architctures that already
define their own symbol.

The /proc/vmallocinfo shows information about vmalloc allocations in
vmlist that is a linklist of vm_struct. It, however, may access pages
field of vm_struct where a page was not allocated. This results in a null
pointer access and leads to a kernel panic.
Why this happens: In __vmalloc_node_range() called from vmalloc(), newly
allocated vm_struct is added to vmlist at __get_vm_area_node() and then,
some fields of vm_struct such as nr_pages and pages are set at
__vmalloc_area_node(). In other words, it is added to vmlist before it is
fully initialized. At the same time, when the /proc/vmallocinfo is read,
it accesses the pages field of vm_struct according to the nr_pages field
at show_numa_info(). Thus, a null pointer access happens.
The patch adds the newly allocated vm_struct to the vmlist *after* it is
fully initialized. So, it can avoid accessing the pages field with
unallocated page when show_numa_info() is called.

It's possible a zone watermark is ok when entering the balance_pgdat()
loop, while the zone is within the requested classzone_idx. Count pages
from this zone into `balanced'. In this way, we can skip shrinking zones
too much for high order allocation.

When direct reclaim encounters a dirty page, it gets recycled around the
LRU for another cycle. This patch marks the page PageReclaim similar to
deactivate_page() so that the page gets reclaimed almost immediately after
the page gets cleaned. This is to avoid reclaiming clean pages that are
younger than a dirty page encountered at the end of the LRU that might
have been something like a use-once page.

Workloads that are allocating frequently and writing files place a large
number of dirty pages on the LRU. With use-once logic, it is possible for
them to reach the end of the LRU quickly requiring the reclaimer to scan
more to find clean pages. Ordinarily, processes that are dirtying memory
will get throttled by dirty balancing but this is a global heuristic and
does not take into account that LRUs are maintained on a per-zone basis.
This can lead to a situation whereby reclaim is scanning heavily, skipping
over a large number of pages under writeback and recycling them around the
LRU consuming CPU.
This patch checks how many of the number of pages isolated from the LRU
were dirty and under writeback. If a percentage of them under writeback,
the process will be throttled if a backing device or the zone is
congested. Note that this applies whether it is anonymous or file-backed
pages that are under writeback meaning that swapping is potentially
throttled. This is intentional due to the fact if the swap device is
congested, scanning more pages and dispatching more IO is not going to
help matters.
The percentage that must be in writeback depends on the priority. At
default priority, all of them must be dirty. At DEF_PRIORITY-1, 50% of
them must be, DEF_PRIORITY-2, 25% etc. i.e. as pressure increases the
greater the likelihood the process will get throttled to allow the flusher
threads to make some progress.

It is preferable that no dirty pages are dispatched for cleaning from the
page reclaim path. At normal priorities, this patch prevents kswapd
writing pages.
However, page reclaim does have a requirement that pages be freed in a
particular zone. If it is failing to make sufficient progress (reclaiming
< SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX at any priority priority), the priority is raised to
scan more pages. A priority of DEF_PRIORITY - 3 is considered to be the
point where kswapd is getting into trouble reclaiming pages. If this
priority is reached, kswapd will dispatch pages for writing.

Lumpy reclaim worked with two passes - the first which queued pages for IO
and the second which waited on writeback. As direct reclaim can no longer
write pages there is some dead code. This patch removes it but direct
reclaim will continue to wait on pages under writeback while in
synchronous reclaim mode.
