Hugh Dickins 35451beecb ksm: unmerge is an origin of OOMs
Just as the swapoff system call allocates many pages of RAM to various
processes, perhaps triggering OOM, so "echo 2 >/sys/kernel/mm/ksm/run"
(unmerge) is liable to allocate many pages of RAM to various processes,
perhaps triggering OOM; and each is normally run from a modest admin
process (swapoff or shell), easily repeated until it succeeds.

So treat unmerge_and_remove_all_rmap_items() in the same way that we treat
try_to_unuse(): generalize PF_SWAPOFF to PF_OOM_ORIGIN, and bracket both
with that, to ask the OOM killer to kill them first, to prevent them from
spawning more and more OOM kills.

Andi Kleen a7420aa54d HWPOISON: Add support for poison swap entries v2
Memory migration uses special swap entry types to trigger special actions on
page faults. Extend this mechanism to also support poisoned swap entries, to
trigger poison handling on page faults. This allows follow-on patches to
prevent processes from faulting in poisoned pages again.

Christoph Hellwig 746cd1e7e4 block: use blkdev_issue_discard in blk_ioctl_discard
blk_ioctl_discard duplicates large amounts of code from blkdev_issue_discard,
the only difference between the two is that blkdev_issue_discard needs to
send a barrier discard request and blk_ioctl_discard a non-barrier one,
and blk_ioctl_discard needs to wait on the request.  To facilitates this
add a flags argument to blkdev_issue_discard to control both aspects of the
behaviour.  This will be very useful later on for using the waiting
funcitonality for other callers.

Based on an earlier patch from Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx>.

Alan Jenkins dddac6a7b4 PM / Hibernate: Replace bdget call with simple atomic_inc of i_count
Create bdgrab().  This function copies an existing reference to a
block_device.  It is safe to call from any context.

Hibernation code wishes to copy a reference to the active swap device.
Right now it calls bdget() under a spinlock, but this is wrong because
bdget() can sleep.  It doesn't need a full bdget() because we already
hold a reference to active swap devices (and the spinlock protects
against swapoff).

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 8a9478ca7f memcg: fix swap accounting
This patch fixes mis-accounting of swap usage in memcg.

In the current implementation, memcg's swap account is uncharged only when
swap is completely freed.  But there are several cases where swap cannot
be freed cleanly.  For handling that, this patch changes that memcg
uncharges swap account when swap has no references other than cache.

By this, memcg's swap entry accounting can be fully synchronous with the
application's behavior.

This patch also changes memcg's hooks for swap-out.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki c9e444103b mm: reuse unused swap entry if necessary
Presently we can know a swap entry is just used as SwapCache via swap_map,
without looking up swap cache.

Then, we have a chance to reuse swap-cache-only swap entries in
get_swap_pages().

This patch tries to free swap-cache-only swap entries if swap is not
enough.

Note: We hit following path when swap_cluster code cannot find a free
cluster.  Then, vm_swap_full() is not only condition to allow the kernel
to reclaim unused swap.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 355cfa73dd mm: modify swap_map and add SWAP_HAS_CACHE flag
This is a part of the patches for fixing memcg's swap accountinf leak.
But, IMHO, not a bad patch even if no memcg.

There are 2 kinds of references to swap.
 - reference from swap entry
 - reference from swap cache

Then,

 - If there is swap cache && swap's refcnt is 1, there is only swap cache.
  (*) swapcount(entry) == 1 && find_get_page(swapper_space, entry) != NULL

This counting logic have worked well for a long time.  But considering
that we cannot know there is a _real_ reference or not by swap_map[],
current usage of counter is not very good.

This patch adds a flag SWAP_HAS_CACHE and recored information that a swap
entry has a cache or not.  This will remove -1 magic used in swapfile.c
and be a help to avoid unnecessary find_get_page().

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki cb4b86ba47 mm: add swap cache interface for swap reference
In a following patch, the usage of swap cache is recorded into swap_map.
This patch is for necessary interface changes to do that.

2 interfaces:

  - swapcache_prepare()
  - swapcache_free()

are added for allocating/freeing refcnt from swap-cache to existing swap
entries.  But implementation itself is not changed under this patch.  At
adding swapcache_free(), memcg's hook code is moved under
swapcache_free().  This is better than using scattered hooks.

Alan Jenkins a1bb7d6123 PM/hibernate: fix "swap breaks after hibernation failures"
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12239

The image writing code dropped a reference to the current swap device.
This doesn't show up if the hibernation succeeds - because it doesn't
affect the image which gets resumed.  But it means multiple _failed_
hibernations end up freeing the swap device while it is still use!

swsusp_write() finds the block device for the swap file using swap_type_of().
It then uses blkdev_get() / blkdev_put() to open and close the block device.

Unfortunately, blkdev_get() assumes ownership of the inode of the block_device
passed to it.  So blkdev_put() calls iput() on the inode.  This is by design
and other callers expect this behaviour.  The fix is for swap_type_of() to take
a reference on the inode using bdget().

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 2c26fdd70c memcg: revert gfp mask fix
My patch, memcg-fix-gfp_mask-of-callers-of-charge.patch changed gfp_mask

But in recent discussion, it's NACKed because it sounds ugly.

This patch is for reverting it and add some clean up to gfp_mask of
callers of charge.  No behavior change but need review before generating
HUNK in deep queue.

This patch also adds explanation to meaning of gfp_mask passed to charge
functions in memcontrol.h.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 8c7c6e34a1 memcg: mem+swap controller core
This patch implements per cgroup limit for usage of memory+swap.  However
there are SwapCache, double counting of swap-cache and swap-entry is
avoided.

Mem+Swap controller works as following.
  - memory usage is limited by memory.limit_in_bytes.
  - memory + swap usage is limited by memory.memsw_limit_in_bytes.

This has following benefits.
  - A user can limit total resource usage of mem+swap.

    Without this, because memory resource controller doesn't take care of
    usage of swap, a process can exhaust all the swap (by memory leak.)
    We can avoid this case.

    And Swap is shared resource but it cannot be reclaimed (goes back to memory)
    until it's used. This characteristic can be trouble when the memory
    is divided into some parts by cpuset or memcg.
    Assume group A and group B.
    After some application executes, the system can be..

    Group A -- very large free memory space but occupy 99% of swap.
    Group B -- under memory shortage but cannot use swap...it's nearly full.

    Ability to set appropriate swap limit for each group is required.

Maybe someone wonder "why not swap but mem+swap ?"

  - The global LRU(kswapd) can swap out arbitrary pages. Swap-out means
    to move account from memory to swap...there is no change in usage of
    mem+swap.

    In other words, when we want to limit the usage of swap without affecting
    global LRU, mem+swap limit is better than just limiting swap.

Accounting target information is stored in swap_cgroup which is
per swap entry record.

Charge is done as following.
  map
    - charge  page and memsw.

  unmap
    - uncharge page/memsw if not SwapCache.

  swap-out (__delete_from_swap_cache)
    - uncharge page
    - record mem_cgroup information to swap_cgroup.

  swap-in (do_swap_page)
    - charged as page and memsw.
      record in swap_cgroup is cleared.
      memsw accounting is decremented.

  swap-free (swap_free())
    - if swap entry is freed, memsw is uncharged by PAGE_SIZE.

There are people work under never-swap environments and consider swap as
something bad. For such people, this mem+swap controller extension is just an
overhead.  This overhead is avoided by config or boot option.
(see Kconfig. detail is not in this patch.)

TODO:
 - maybe more optimization can be don in swap-in path. (but not very safe.)
   But we just do simple accounting at this stage.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 27a7faa077 memcg: swap cgroup for remembering usage
For accounting swap, we need a record per swap entry, at least.

This patch adds following function.
  - swap_cgroup_swapon() .... called from swapon
  - swap_cgroup_swapoff() ... called at the end of swapoff.

  - swap_cgroup_record() .... record information of swap entry.
  - swap_cgroup_lookup() .... lookup information of swap entry.

This patch just implements "how to record information".  No actual method
for limit the usage of swap.  These routine uses flat table to record and
lookup.  "wise" lookup system like radix-tree requires requires memory
allocation at new records but swap-out is usually called under memory
shortage (or memcg hits limit.) So, I used static allocation.  (maybe
dynamic allocation is not very hard but it adds additional memory
allocation in memory shortage path.)

Note1: In this, we use pointer to record information and this means
      8bytes per swap entry. I think we can reduce this when we
      create "id of cgroup" in the range of 0-65535 or 0-255.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki bced0520fe memcg: fix gfp_mask of callers of charge
Fix misuse of gfp_kernel.

Now, most of callers of mem_cgroup_charge_xxx functions uses GFP_KERNEL.

I think that this is from the fact that page_cgroup *was* dynamically
allocated.

But now, we allocate all page_cgroup at boot.  And
mem_cgroup_try_to_free_pages() reclaim memory from GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE +
specified GFP_RECLAIM_MASK.

  * This is because we just want to reduce memory usage.
    "Where we should reclaim from ?" is not a problem in memcg.

This patch modifies gfp masks to be GFP_HIGUSER_MOVABLE if possible.

Note: This patch is not for fixing behavior but for showing sane information
      in source code.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 7a81b88cb5 memcg: introduce charge-commit-cancel style of functions
There is a small race in do_swap_page().  When the page swapped-in is
charged, the mapcount can be greater than 0.  But, at the same time some
process (shares it ) call unmap and make mapcount 1->0 and the page is
uncharged.

      CPUA 			CPUB
       mapcount == 1.
   (1) charge if mapcount==0     zap_pte_range()
                                (2) mapcount 1 => 0.
			        (3) uncharge(). (success)
   (4) set page's rmap()
       mapcount 0=>1

Then, this swap page's account is leaked.

For fixing this, I added a new interface.
  - charge
   account to res_counter by PAGE_SIZE and try to free pages if necessary.
  - commit
   register page_cgroup and add to LRU if necessary.
  - cancel
   uncharge PAGE_SIZE because of do_swap_page failure.

     CPUA
  (1) charge (always)
  (2) set page's rmap (mapcount > 0)
  (3) commit charge was necessary or not after set_pte().

This protocol uses PCG_USED bit on page_cgroup for avoiding over accounting.
Usual mem_cgroup_charge_common() does charge -> commit at a time.

And this patch also adds following function to clarify all charges.

  - mem_cgroup_newpage_charge() ....replacement for mem_cgroup_charge()
	called against newly allocated anon pages.

  - mem_cgroup_charge_migrate_fixup()
        called only from remove_migration_ptes().
	we'll have to rewrite this later.(this patch just keeps old behavior)
	This function will be removed by additional patch to make migration
	clearer.

Good for clarifying "what we do"

Then, we have 4 following charge points.
  - newpage
  - swap-in
  - add-to-cache.
  - migration.

Hugh Dickins 2509ef26db badpage: zap print_bad_pte on swap and file
Complete zap_pte_range()'s coverage of bad pagetable entries by calling
print_bad_pte() on a pte_file in a linear vma and on a bad swap entry.
That needs free_swap_and_cache() to tell it, which will also have shown
one of those "swap_free" errors (but with much less information).

Similar checks in fork's copy_one_pte()?  No, that would be more noisy
than helpful: we'll see them when parent and child exec or exit.

Where do_nonlinear_fault() calls print_bad_pte(): omit !VM_CAN_NONLINEAR
case, that could only be a bug in sys_remap_file_pages(), not a bad pte.
VM_FAULT_OOM rather than VM_FAULT_SIGBUS?  Well, okay, that is consistent
with what happens if do_swap_page() operates a bad swap entry; but don't
we have patches to be more careful about killing when VM_FAULT_OOM?

Hugh Dickins c60aa176c6 swapfile: swap allocation cycle if nonrot
Though attempting to find free clusters (Andrea), swap allocation has
always restarted its searches from the beginning of the swap area (sct),
to reduce seek times between swap pages, by not scattering them all over
the partition.

But on a solidstate swap device, seeks are cheap, and block remapping to
level the wear may be limited by zones: in that case it's better to cycle
around the whole partition.

Hugh Dickins 20137a490f swapfile: swapon randomize if nonrot
Swap allocation has always started from the beginning of the swap area;
but if we're dealing with a solidstate swap device which can only remap
blocks within limited zones, that would sooner wear out the first zone.

Therefore sys_swapon() test whether blk_queue is non-rotational, and if so
randomize the cluster_next starting position for allocation.

If blk_queue is nonrot, note SWP_SOLIDSTATE for later use, and report it
with an "SS" at the right end of the kernel's "Adding ...  swap" message
(so that if it's both nonrot and discardable, "SSD" will be shown there).
Perhaps something should be shown in /proc/swaps (swapon -s), but we have
to be more cautious before making any addition to that format.

Hugh Dickins 7992fde72c swapfile: swap allocation use discard
When scan_swap_map() finds a free cluster of swap pages to allocate,
discard the old contents of the cluster if the device supports discard.
But don't bother when swap is so fragmented that we allocate single pages.

Be careful about racing allocations made while we're scanning for a
cluster; and hold up allocations made while we're discarding.

Hugh Dickins 6a6ba83175 swapfile: swapon use discard (trim)
When adding swap, all the old data on swap can be forgotten: sys_swapon()
discard all but the header page of the swap partition (or every extent but
the header of the swap file), to give a solidstate swap device the
opportunity to optimize its wear-levelling.

If that succeeds, note SWP_DISCARDABLE for later use, and report it with a
"D" at the right end of the kernel's "Adding ...  swap" message.  Perhaps
something should be shown in /proc/swaps (swapon -s), but we have to be

Hugh Dickins ebebbbe904 swapfile: rearrange scan and swap_info
Before making functional changes, rearrange scan_swap_map() to simplify
subsequent diffs.  Actually, there is one functional change in there:
leave cluster_nr negative while scanning for a new cluster - resetting it
early increased the likelihood that when we have difficulty finding a free
cluster, another task may come in and try doing exactly the same - just a
waste of cpu.

Before making functional changes, rearrange struct swap_info_struct
slightly: flags will be needed as an unsigned long (for wait_on_bit), next
is a good int to pair with prio, old_block_size is uninteresting so shift
it to the end.

I'd have liked to be specific, saying "Unable to find SWAPSPACE2

Hugh Dickins 68bdc8d647 mm: try_to_unuse check removing right swap
There's a possible race in try_to_unuse() which Nick Piggin led me to two
years ago.  Where it does lock_page() after read_swap_cache_async(), what
if another task removed that page from swapcache just before we locked it?

It would sail though the (*swap_map > 1) tests doing nothing (because it
could not have been removed from swapcache before its swap references were
gone), until it reaches the delete_from_swap_cache(page) near the bottom.

Now imagine that this page has been allocated to swap on a different swap
area while we dropped page lock (perhaps at the top, perhaps in unuse_mm):
we could wrongly remove from swap cache before the page has been written
to swap, so a subsequent do_swap_page() would read in stale data from
swap.

I think this case could not happen before: remove_exclusive_swap_page()
refused while page count was raised.  But now with reuse_swap_page() and
try_to_free_swap() removing from swap cache without minding page count, I
think it could happen - the previous patch argued that it was safe because
try_to_unuse() already ignored page count, but overlooked that it might be
breaking the assumptions in try_to_unuse() itself.

Hugh Dickins a2c43eed83 mm: try_to_free_swap replaces remove_exclusive_swap_page
remove_exclusive_swap_page(): its problem is in living up to its name.

It doesn't matter if someone else has a reference to the page (raised
page_count); it doesn't matter if the page is mapped into userspace
(raised page_mapcount - though that hints it may be worth keeping the
swap): all that matters is that there be no more references to the swap
(and no writeback in progress).

swapoff (try_to_unuse) has been removing pages from swapcache for years,
with no concern for page count or page mapcount, and we used to have a
comment in lookup_swap_cache() recognizing that: if you go for a page of
swapcache, you'll get the right page, but it could have been removed from
swapcache by the time you get page lock.

So, give up asking for exclusivity: get rid of
remove_exclusive_swap_page(), and remove_exclusive_swap_page_ref() and
remove_exclusive_swap_page_count() which were spawned for the recent LRU
work: replace them by the simpler try_to_free_swap() which just checks
page_swapcount().

Similarly, remove the page_count limitation from free_swap_and_count(),
but assume that it's worth holding on to the swap if page is mapped and
swap nowhere near full.  Add a vm_swap_full() test in free_swap_cache()?
It would be consistent, but I think we probably have enough for now.

Hugh Dickins 7b1fe59793 mm: reuse_swap_page replaces can_share_swap_page
A good place to free up old swap is where do_wp_page(), or do_swap_page(),
is about to redirty the page: the data on disk is then stale and won't be
read again; and if we do decide to write the page out later, using the
previous swap location makes an unnecessary disk seek very likely.

So give can_share_swap_page() the side-effect of delete_from_swap_cache()
when it safely can.  And can_share_swap_page() was always a misleading
name, the more so if it has a side-effect: rename it reuse_swap_page().

Irrelevant cleanup nearby: remove swap_token_default_timeout definition
from swap.h: it's used nowhere.

Jan Beulich 1796316a8b x86: consolidate __swp_XXX() macros
Impact: cleanup, code robustization

The __swp_...() macros silently relied upon which bits are used for
_PAGE_FILE and _PAGE_PROTNONE. After having changed _PAGE_PROTNONE in
our Xen kernel to no longer overlap _PAGE_PAT, live locks and crashes
were reported that could have been avoided if these macros properly
used the symbolic constants. Since, as pointed out earlier, for Xen
Dom0 support mainline likewise will need to eliminate the conflict
between _PAGE_PAT and _PAGE_PROTNONE, this patch does all the necessary
adjustments, plus it introduces a mechanism to check consistency
between MAX_SWAPFILES_SHIFT and the actual encoding macros.

This also fixes a latent bug in that x86-64 used a 6-bit mask in
__swp_type(), and if MAX_SWAPFILES_SHIFT was increased beyond 5 in (the
seemingly unrelated) linux/swap.h, this would have resulted in a
collision with _PAGE_FILE.

Non-PAE 32-bit code gets similarly adjusted for its pte_to_pgoff() and
pgoff_to_pte() calculations.

Hugh Dickins 78ecba0812 mm: fix ever-decreasing swap priority
Vegard Nossum has noticed the ever-decreasing negative priority in a
swapon /swapoff loop, which eventually would misprioritize when int wraps
positive.  Not worth spending much code on, but probably better fixed.

It's easy to handle the swapping on and off of just one area, but there's
not much point if a pair or more still misbehave.  To handle the general
case, swapoff should compact negative priorities, keeping them always from
-1 to -MAX_SWAPFILES.  That's a change, but should cause no regression,
since these negative (unspecified) priorities are disjoint from the the
positive specified priorities 0 to 32767.

One small functional difference, which seems appropriate: when swapoff
fails to free all swap from a negative priority area, that area is now
reinserted at lowest priority, rather than at its original priority.

In moving down swapon's setting of priority, I notice that an area is
visible to /proc/swaps when it has swap_map set, yet that was being set
before all the visible fields were properly filled in: corrected.

Balbir Singh 8a9f3ccd24 Memory controller: memory accounting
Add the accounting hooks.  The accounting is carried out for RSS and Page
Cache (unmapped) pages.  There is now a common limit and accounting for both.
The RSS accounting is accounted at page_add_*_rmap() and page_remove_rmap()
time.  Page cache is accounted at add_to_page_cache(),
__delete_from_page_cache().  Swap cache is also accounted for.

Each page's page_cgroup is protected with the last bit of the
page_cgroup pointer, this makes handling of race conditions involving
simultaneous mappings of a page easier.  A reference count is kept in the
page_cgroup to deal with cases where a page might be unmapped from the RSS
of all tasks, but still lives in the page cache.

Credits go to Vaidyanathan Srinivasan for helping with reference counting work
of the page cgroup.  Almost all of the page cache accounting code has help
from Vaidyanathan Srinivasan.

Hugh Dickins 59bd26582d memcgroup: temporarily revert swapoff mod
This patch precisely reverts the "swapoff: scan ptes preemptibly" patch
just presented.  It's a temporary measure to allow existing memory
controller patches to apply without rejects: in due course they should be
rendered down into one sensible patch, and this reversion disappear.
