Linus Torvalds 1cf35d4771 mm: split 'tlb_flush_mmu()' into tlb flushing and memory freeing parts
The mmu-gather operation 'tlb_flush_mmu()' has done two things: the
actual tlb flush operation, and the batched freeing of the pages that
the TLB entries pointed at.

This splits the operation into separate phases, so that the forced
batched flushing done by zap_pte_range() can now do the actual TLB flush
while still holding the page table lock, but delay the batched freeing
of all the pages to after the lock has been dropped.

This in turn allows us to avoid a race condition between
set_page_dirty() (as called by zap_pte_range() when it finds a dirty
shared memory pte) and page_mkclean(): because we now flush all the
dirty page data from the TLB's while holding the pte lock,
page_mkclean() will be held up walking the (recently cleaned) page
tables until after the TLB entries have been flushed from all CPU's.

Linus Torvalds 1b17844b29 mm: make fixup_user_fault() check the vma access rights too
fixup_user_fault() is used by the futex code when the direct user access
fails, and the futex code wants it to either map in the page in a usable
form or return an error.  It relied on handle_mm_fault() to map the
page, and correctly checked the error return from that, but while that
does map the page, it doesn't actually guarantee that the page will be
mapped with sufficient permissions to be then accessed.

So do the appropriate tests of the vma access rights by hand.

[ Side note: arguably handle_mm_fault() could just do that itself, but
  we have traditionally done it in the caller, because some callers -
  notably get_user_pages() - have been able to access pages even when
  they are mapped with PROT_NONE.  Maybe we should re-visit that design
  decision, but in the meantime this is the minimal patch. ]

Miklos Szeredi ed6d7c8e57 mm: remove unused arg of set_page_dirty_balance()
There's only one caller of set_page_dirty_balance() and that will call it
with page_mkwrite == 0.

The page_mkwrite argument was unused since commit b827e496c8 "mm: close
page_mkwrite races".

Michal Hocko d715ae08f2 memcg: rename high level charging functions
mem_cgroup_newpage_charge is used only for charging anonymous memory so
it is better to rename it to mem_cgroup_charge_anon.

mem_cgroup_cache_charge is used for file backed memory so rename it to
mem_cgroup_charge_file.

Kirill A. Shutemov 8c6e50b029 mm: introduce vm_ops->map_pages()
Here's new version of faultaround patchset.  It took a while to tune it
and collect performance data.

First patch adds new callback ->map_pages to vm_operations_struct.

->map_pages() is called when VM asks to map easy accessible pages.
Filesystem should find and map pages associated with offsets from
"pgoff" till "max_pgoff".  ->map_pages() is called with page table
locked and must not block.  If it's not possible to reach a page without
blocking, filesystem should skip it.  Filesystem should use do_set_pte()
to setup page table entry.  Pointer to entry associated with offset
"pgoff" is passed in "pte" field in vm_fault structure.  Pointers to
entries for other offsets should be calculated relative to "pte".

Currently VM use ->map_pages only on read page fault path.  We try to
map FAULT_AROUND_PAGES a time.  FAULT_AROUND_PAGES is 16 for now.
Performance data for different FAULT_AROUND_ORDER is below.

TODO:
 - implement ->map_pages() for shmem/tmpfs;
 - modify get_user_pages() to be able to use ->map_pages() and implement
   mmap(MAP_POPULATE|MAP_NONBLOCK) on top.

=========================================================================
Tested on 4-socket machine (120 threads) with 128GiB of RAM.

Few real-world workloads. The sweet spot for FAULT_AROUND_ORDER here is
somewhere between 3 and 5. Let's say 4 :)

This patch (of 2):

Introduce new vm_ops callback ->map_pages() and uses it for mapping easy
accessible pages around fault address.

On read page fault, if filesystem provides ->map_pages(), we try to map up
to FAULT_AROUND_PAGES pages around page fault address in hope to reduce
number of minor page faults.

We call ->map_pages first and use ->fault() as fallback if page by the
offset is not ready to be mapped (cold page cache or something).

Hugh Dickins cda540ace6 mm: get_user_pages(write,force) refuse to COW in shared areas
get_user_pages(write=1, force=1) has always had odd behaviour on write-
protected shared mappings: although it demands FMODE_WRITE-access to the
underlying object (do_mmap_pgoff sets neither VM_SHARED nor VM_MAYWRITE
without that), it ends up with do_wp_page substituting private anonymous
Copied-On-Write pages for the shared file pages in the area.

That was long ago intentional, as a safety measure to prevent ptrace
setting a breakpoint (or POKETEXT or POKEDATA) from inadvertently
corrupting the underlying executable.  Yet exec and dynamic loaders open
the file read-only, and use MAP_PRIVATE rather than MAP_SHARED.

The traditional odd behaviour still causes surprises and bugs in mm, and
is probably not what any caller wants - even the comment on the flag
says "You do not want this" (although it's undoubtedly necessary for
overriding userspace protections in some contexts, and good when !write).

Let's stop doing that.  But it would be dangerous to remove the long-
standing safety at this stage, so just make get_user_pages(write,force)
fail with EFAULT when applied to a write-protected shared area.
Infiniband may in future want to force write through to underlying
object: we can add another FOLL_flag later to enable that if required.

Odd though the old behaviour was, there is no doubt that we may turn out
to break userspace with this change, and have to revert it quickly.
Issue a WARN_ON_ONCE to help debug the changed case (easily triggered by
userspace, so only once to prevent spamming the logs); and delay a few
associated cleanups until this change is proved.

get_user_pages callers who might see trouble from this change:
  ptrace poking, or writing to /proc/<pid>/mem
  drivers/infiniband/
  drivers/media/v4l2-core/
  drivers/gpu/drm/exynos/exynos_drm_gem.c
  drivers/staging/tidspbridge/core/tiomap3430.c
if they ever apply get_user_pages to write-protected shared mappings
of an object which was opened for writing.

I went to apply the same change to mm/nommu.c, but retreated.  NOMMU has
no place for COW, and its VM_flags conventions are not the same: I'd be
more likely to screw up NOMMU than make an improvement there.

Kirill A. Shutemov 80d7ef6614 mm: rename __do_fault() -> do_fault()
Current __do_fault() is awful and unmaintainable.  These patches try to
sort it out by split __do_fault() into three destinct codepaths:

 - to handle read page fault;
 - to handle write page fault to private mappings;
 - to handle write page fault to shared mappings;

I also found page refcount leak in PageHWPoison() path of __do_fault().

This patch (of 7):

do_fault() is unused: no reason for underscores.

Kirill A. Shutemov 9845cbbd11 mm, thp: fix infinite loop on memcg OOM
Masayoshi Mizuma reported a bug with the hang of an application under
the memcg limit.  It happens on write-protection fault to huge zero page

If we successfully allocate a huge page to replace zero page but hit the
memcg limit we need to split the zero page with split_huge_page_pmd()
and fallback to small pages.

The other part of the problem is that VM_FAULT_OOM has special meaning
in do_huge_pmd_wp_page() context.  __handle_mm_fault() expects the page
to be split if it sees VM_FAULT_OOM and it will will retry page fault
handling.  This causes an infinite loop if the page was not split.

do_huge_pmd_wp_zero_page_fallback() can return VM_FAULT_OOM if it failed
to allocate one small page, so fallback to small pages will not help.

The solution for this part is to replace VM_FAULT_OOM with
VM_FAULT_FALLBACK is fallback required.

Sasha Levin 309381feae mm: dump page when hitting a VM_BUG_ON using VM_BUG_ON_PAGE
Most of the VM_BUG_ON assertions are performed on a page.  Usually, when
one of these assertions fails we'll get a BUG_ON with a call stack and
the registers.

I've recently noticed based on the requests to add a small piece of code
that dumps the page to various VM_BUG_ON sites that the page dump is
quite useful to people debugging issues in mm.

This patch adds a VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(cond, page) which beyond doing what
VM_BUG_ON() does, also dumps the page before executing the actual
BUG_ON.

Dave Hansen f0b791a34c mm: print more details for bad_page()
bad_page() is cool in that it prints out a bunch of data about the page.
But, I can never remember which page flags are good and which are bad,
or whether ->index or ->mapping is required to be NULL.

This patch allows bad/dump_page() callers to specify a string about why
they are dumping the page and adds explanation strings to a number of
places.  It also adds a 'bad_flags' argument to bad_page(), which it
then dumps out separately from the flags which are actually set.

This way, the messages will show specifically why the page was bad,
*specifically* which flags it is complaining about, if it was a page
flag combination which was the problem.

Kirill A. Shutemov b35f1819ac mm: create a separate slab for page->ptl allocation
If DEBUG_SPINLOCK and DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC are enabled spinlock_t on x86_64
is 72 bytes.  For page->ptl they will be allocated from kmalloc-96 slab,
so we loose 24 on each.  An average system can easily allocate few tens
thousands of page->ptl and overhead is significant.

Let's create a separate slab for page->ptl allocation to solve this.

To make sure that it really works this time, some numbers from my test
machine (just booted, no load):

Before:
  # grep '^\(kmalloc-96\|page->ptl\)' /proc/slabinfo
  kmalloc-96         31987  32190    128   30    1 : tunables  120   60    8 : slabdata   1073   1073     92
After:
  # grep '^\(kmalloc-96\|page->ptl\)' /proc/slabinfo
  page->ptl          27516  28143     72   53    1 : tunables  120   60    8 : slabdata    531    531      9
  kmalloc-96          3853   5280    128   30    1 : tunables  120   60    8 : slabdata    176    176      0

Note that the patch is useful not only for debug case, but also for
PREEMPT_RT, where spinlock_t is always bloated.

Dan Williams 0abdd7a81b dma-debug: introduce debug_dma_assert_idle()
Record actively mapped pages and provide an api for asserting a given
page is dma inactive before execution proceeds.  Placing
debug_dma_assert_idle() in cow_user_page() flagged the violation of the
dma-api in the NET_DMA implementation (see commit 7787380336 "net_dma:
mark broken").

The implementation includes the capability to count, in a limited way,
repeat mappings of the same page that occur without an intervening
unmap.  This 'overlap' counter is limited to the few bits of tag space
in a radix tree.  This mechanism is added to mitigate false negative
cases where, for example, a page is dma mapped twice and
debug_dma_assert_idle() is called after the page is un-mapped once.

In struct page we have enough space to fit long-size page->ptl there,
but we use dynamically-allocated page->ptl if size(spinlock_t) is larger
than sizeof(int).

It hurts 64-bit architectures with CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK, where
sizeof(spinlock_t) == 8, but it easily fits into struct page.

This reverts commit ea1e7ed337.

Al points out that while the commit *does* actually create a separate
slab for the page->ptl allocation, that slab is never actually used, and
the code continues to use kmalloc/kfree.

Damien Wyart points out that the original patch did have the conversion
to use kmem_cache_alloc/free, so it got lost somewhere on its way to me.

Revert the half-arsed attempt that didn't do anything.  If we really do
want the special slab (remember: this is all relevant just for debug
builds, so it's not necessarily all that critical) we might as well redo
the patch fully.

Kirill A. Shutemov 49076ec2cc mm: dynamically allocate page->ptl if it cannot be embedded to struct page
If split page table lock is in use, we embed the lock into struct page
of table's page.  We have to disable split lock, if spinlock_t is too
big be to be embedded, like when DEBUG_SPINLOCK or DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC
enabled.

This patch add support for dynamic allocation of split page table lock
if we can't embed it to struct page.

page->ptl is unsigned long now and we use it as spinlock_t if
sizeof(spinlock_t) <= sizeof(long), otherwise it's pointer to spinlock_t.

The spinlock_t allocated in pgtable_page_ctor() for PTE table and in
pgtable_pmd_page_ctor() for PMD table.  All other helpers converted to
support dynamically allocated page->ptl.

Mel Gorman c61109e34f mm: numa: Sanitize task_numa_fault() callsites
There are three callers of task_numa_fault():

 - do_huge_pmd_numa_page():
     Accounts against the current node, not the node where the
     page resides, unless we migrated, in which case it accounts
     against the node we migrated to.

 - do_numa_page():
     Accounts against the current node, not the node where the
     page resides, unless we migrated, in which case it accounts
     against the node we migrated to.

 - do_pmd_numa_page():
     Accounts not at all when the page isn't migrated, otherwise
     accounts against the node we migrated towards.

This seems wrong to me; all three sites should have the same
sementaics, furthermore we should accounts against where the page
really is, we already know where the task is.

So modify all three sites to always account; we did after all receive
the fault; and always account to where the page is after migration,
regardless of success.

They all still differ on when they clear the PTE/PMD; ideally that
would get sorted too.

Johannes Weiner 4942642080 mm: memcg: handle non-error OOM situations more gracefully
Commit 3812c8c8f3 ("mm: memcg: do not trap chargers with full
callstack on OOM") assumed that only a few places that can trigger a
memcg OOM situation do not return VM_FAULT_OOM, like optional page cache
readahead.  But there are many more and it's impractical to annotate
them all.

First of all, we don't want to invoke the OOM killer when the failed
allocation is gracefully handled, so defer the actual kill to the end of
the fault handling as well.  This simplifies the code quite a bit for
added bonus.

Second, since a failed allocation might not be the abrupt end of the
fault, the memcg OOM handler needs to be re-entrant until the fault
finishes for subsequent allocation attempts.  If an allocation is
attempted after the task already OOMed, allow it to bypass the limit so
that it can quickly finish the fault and invoke the OOM killer.

Cyrill Gorcunov c3d16e1652 mm: migration: do not lose soft dirty bit if page is in migration state
If page migration is turned on in config and the page is migrating, we
may lose the soft dirty bit.  If fork and mprotect are called on
migrating pages (once migration is complete) pages do not obtain the
soft dirty bit in the correspond pte entries.  Fix it adding an
appropriate test on swap entries.

Adjust numa_scan_period in task_numa_placement, depending on how much
useful work the numa code can do. The more local faults there are in a
given scan window the longer the period (and hence the slower the scan rate)
during the next window. If there are excessive shared faults then the scan
period will decrease with the amount of scaling depending on whether the
ratio of shared/private faults. If the preferred node changes then the
scan rate is reset to recheck if the task is properly placed.

Rik van Riel dabe1d9924 sched/numa: Be more careful about joining numa groups
Due to the way the pid is truncated, and tasks are moved between
CPUs by the scheduler, it is possible for the current task_numa_fault
to group together tasks that do not actually share memory together.

This patch adds a few easy sanity checks to task_numa_fault, joining
tasks together if they share the same tsk->mm, or if the fault was on
a page with an elevated mapcount, in a shared VMA.

Mel Gorman 0f19c17929 mm: numa: Do not batch handle PMD pages
With the THP migration races closed it is still possible to occasionally
see corruption. The problem is related to handling PMD pages in batch.
When a page fault is handled it can be assumed that the page being
faulted will also be flushed from the TLB. The same flushing does not
happen when handling PMD pages in batch. Fixing is straight forward but
there are a number of reasons not to

1. Multiple TLB flushes may have to be sent depending on what pages get
   migrated
2. The handling of PMDs in batch means that faults get accounted to
   the task that is handling the fault. While care is taken to only
   mark PMDs where the last CPU and PID match it can still have problems
   due to PID truncation when matching PIDs.
3. Batching on the PMD level may reduce faults but setting pmd_numa
   requires taking a heavy lock that can contend with THP migration
   and handling the fault requires the release/acquisition of the PTL
   for every page migrated. It's still pretty heavy.

PMD batch handling is not something that people ever have been happy
with. This patch removes it and later patches will deal with the
additional fault overhead using more installigent migrate rate adaption.

Peter Zijlstra 8c8a743c50 sched/numa: Use {cpu, pid} to create task groups for shared faults
While parallel applications tend to align their data on the cache
boundary, they tend not to align on the page or THP boundary.
Consequently tasks that partition their data can still "false-share"
pages presenting a problem for optimal NUMA placement.

This patch uses NUMA hinting faults to chain tasks together into
numa_groups. As well as storing the NID a task was running on when
accessing a page a truncated representation of the faulting PID is
stored. If subsequent faults are from different PIDs it is reasonable
to assume that those two tasks share a page and are candidates for
being grouped together. Note that this patch makes no scheduling
decisions based on the grouping information.

Mel Gorman b795854b1f sched/numa: Set preferred NUMA node based on number of private faults
Ideally it would be possible to distinguish between NUMA hinting faults that
are private to a task and those that are shared. If treated identically
there is a risk that shared pages bounce between nodes depending on
the order they are referenced by tasks. Ultimately what is desirable is
that task private pages remain local to the task while shared pages are
interleaved between sharing tasks running on different nodes to give good
average performance. This is further complicated by THP as even
applications that partition their data may not be partitioning on a huge
page boundary.

To start with, this patch assumes that multi-threaded or multi-process
applications partition their data and that in general the private accesses
are more important for cpu->memory locality in the general case. Also,
no new infrastructure is required to treat private pages properly but
interleaving for shared pages requires additional infrastructure.

To detect private accesses the pid of the last accessing task is required
but the storage requirements are a high. This patch borrows heavily from
Ingo Molnar's patch "numa, mm, sched: Implement last-CPU+PID hash tracking"
to encode some bits from the last accessing task in the page flags as
well as the node information. Collisions will occur but it is better than
just depending on the node information. Node information is then used to
determine if a page needs to migrate. The PID information is used to detect
private/shared accesses. The preferred NUMA node is selected based on where
the maximum number of approximately private faults were measured. Shared
faults are not taken into consideration for a few reasons.

First, if there are many tasks sharing the page then they'll all move
towards the same node. The node will be compute overloaded and then
scheduled away later only to bounce back again. Alternatively the shared
tasks would just bounce around nodes because the fault information is
effectively noise. Either way accounting for shared faults the same as
private faults can result in lower performance overall.

The second reason is based on a hypothetical workload that has a small
number of very important, heavily accessed private pages but a large shared
array. The shared array would dominate the number of faults and be selected
as a preferred node even though it's the wrong decision.

The third reason is that multiple threads in a process will race each
other to fault the shared page making the fault information unreliable.

Mel Gorman 1bc115d87d mm: numa: Scan pages with elevated page_mapcount
Currently automatic NUMA balancing is unable to distinguish between false
shared versus private pages except by ignoring pages with an elevated
page_mapcount entirely. This avoids shared pages bouncing between the
nodes whose task is using them but that is ignored quite a lot of data.

This patch kicks away the training wheels in preparation for adding support
for identifying shared/private pages is now in place. The ordering is so
that the impact of the shared/private detection can be easily measured. Note
that the patch does not migrate shared, file-backed within vmas marked
VM_EXEC as these are generally shared library pages. Migrating such pages
is not beneficial as there is an expectation they are read-shared between
caches and iTLB and iCache pressure is generally low.

The zero page is not replicated between nodes and is often shared between
processes. The data is read-only and likely to be cached in local CPUs
if heavily accessed meaning that the remote memory access cost is less
of a concern. This patch prevents trapping faults on the zero pages. For
tasks using the zero page this will reduce the number of PTE updates,
TLB flushes and hinting faults.

Mel Gorman 8191acbd30 mm: numa: Sanitize task_numa_fault() callsites
There are three callers of task_numa_fault():

 - do_huge_pmd_numa_page():
     Accounts against the current node, not the node where the
     page resides, unless we migrated, in which case it accounts
     against the node we migrated to.

 - do_numa_page():
     Accounts against the current node, not the node where the
     page resides, unless we migrated, in which case it accounts
     against the node we migrated to.

 - do_pmd_numa_page():
     Accounts not at all when the page isn't migrated, otherwise
     accounts against the node we migrated towards.

This seems wrong to me; all three sites should have the same
sementaics, furthermore we should accounts against where the page
really is, we already know where the task is.

So modify all three sites to always account; we did after all receive
the fault; and always account to where the page is after migration,
regardless of success.

They all still differ on when they clear the PTE/PMD; ideally that
would get sorted too.
