We waste sizeof(swp_entry_t) for zswap header when using zsmalloc as
zpool driver because zsmalloc doesn't support eviction.
Add zpool_evictable() to detect if zpool is potentially evictable, and
use it in zswap to avoid waste memory for zswap header.

During our recent testing with fadvise(FADV_DONTNEED), we find that if
given offset/length is not page-aligned, the last page will not be
discarded. The tool we use is vmtouch (https://hoytech.com/vmtouch/),
we map a 10KB-sized file into memory and then try to run this tool to
evict the whole file mapping, but the last single page always remains
staying in the memory:
$./vmtouch -e test_10K
Files: 1
Directories: 0
Evicted Pages: 3 (12K)
Elapsed: 2.1e-05 seconds
$./vmtouch test_10K
Files: 1
Directories: 0
Resident Pages: 1/3 4K/12K 33.3%
Elapsed: 5.5e-05 seconds
However when we test with an older kernel, say 3.10, this problem is
gone. So we wonder if this is a regression:
$./vmtouch -e test_10K
Files: 1
Directories: 0
Evicted Pages: 3 (12K)
Elapsed: 8.2e-05 seconds
$./vmtouch test_10K
Files: 1
Directories: 0
Resident Pages: 0/3 0/12K 0% <-- partial page also discarded
Elapsed: 5e-05 seconds
After digging a little bit into this problem, we find it seems not a
regression. Not discarding partial page is likely to be on purpose
according to commit 441c228f81 ("mm: fadvise: document the
fadvise(FADV_DONTNEED) behaviour for partial pages") written by Mel
Gorman. He explained why partial pages should be preserved instead of
being discarded when using fadvise(FADV_DONTNEED).
However, the interesting part is that the actual code did NOT work as
the same as it was described, the partial page was still discarded
anyway, due to a calculation mistake of `end_index' passed to
invalidate_mapping_pages(). This mistake has not been fixed until
recently, that's why we fail to reproduce our problem in old kernels.
The fix is done in commit 18aba41cbf ("mm/fadvise.c: do not discard
partial pages with POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED") by Oleg Drokin.
Back to the original testing, our problem becomes that there is a
special case that, if the page-unaligned `endbyte' is also the end of
file, it is not necessary at all to preserve the last partial page, as
we all know no one else will use the rest of it. It should be safe
enough if we just discard the whole page. So we add an EOF check in
this patch.
We also find a poosbile real world issue in mainline kernel. Assume
such scenario: A userspace backup application want to backup a huge
amount of small files (<4k) at once, the developer might (I guess) want
to use fadvise(FADV_DONTNEED) to save memory. However, FADV_DONTNEED
won't really happen since the only page mapped is a partial page, and
kernel will preserve it. Our patch also fixes this problem, since we
know the endbyte is EOF, so we discard it.
Here is a simple reproducer to reproduce and verify each scenario we
described above:

Minchan Kim asked the following question -- what locks protects
address_space destroying when race happens between inode trauncation and
__isolate_lru_page? Jan Kara clarified by describing the race as follows
CPU1 CPU2
truncate(inode) __isolate_lru_page()
...
truncate_inode_page(mapping, page);
delete_from_page_cache(page)
spin_lock_irqsave(&mapping->tree_lock, flags);
__delete_from_page_cache(page, NULL)
page_cache_tree_delete(..)
... mapping = page_mapping(page);
page->mapping = NULL;
...
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mapping->tree_lock, flags);
page_cache_free_page(mapping, page)
put_page(page)
if (put_page_testzero(page)) -> false
- inode now has no pages and can be freed including embedded address_space
if (mapping && !mapping->a_ops->migratepage)
- we've dereferenced mapping which is potentially already free.
The race is theoretically possible but unlikely. Before the
delete_from_page_cache, truncate_cleanup_page is called so the page is
likely to be !PageDirty or PageWriteback which gets skipped by the only
caller that checks the mappping in __isolate_lru_page. Even if the race
occurs, a substantial amount of work has to happen during a tiny window
with no preemption but it could potentially be done using a virtual
machine to artifically slow one CPU or halt it during the critical
window.
This patch should eliminate the race with truncation by try-locking the
page before derefencing mapping and aborting if the lock was not
acquired. There was a suggestion from Huang Ying to use RCU as a
side-effect to prevent mapping being freed. However, I do not like the
solution as it's an unconventional means of preserving a mapping and
it's not a context where rcu_read_lock is obviously protecting rcu data.

Patch series "memfd: add sealing to hugetlb-backed memory", v3.
Recently, Mike Kravetz added hugetlbfs support to memfd. However, he
didn't add sealing support. One of the reasons to use memfd is to have
shared memory sealing when doing IPC or sharing memory with another
process with some extra safety. qemu uses shared memory & hugetables
with vhost-user (used by dpdk), so it is reasonable to use memfd now
instead for convenience and security reasons.
This patch (of 9):
The functions are called through shmem_fcntl() only. And no danger in
removing the EXPORTs as the routines only work with shmem file structs.

Commit 4d4bbd8526 ("mm, oom_reaper: skip mm structs with mmu
notifiers") prevented the oom reaper from unmapping private anonymous
memory with the oom reaper when the oom victim mm had mmu notifiers
registered.
The rationale is that doing mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_{start,end}()
around the unmap_page_range(), which is needed, can block and the oom
killer will stall forever waiting for the victim to exit, which may not
be possible without reaping.
That concern is real, but only true for mmu notifiers that have
blockable invalidate_range_{start,end}() callbacks. This patch adds a
"flags" field to mmu notifier ops that can set a bit to indicate that
these callbacks do not block.
The implementation is steered toward an expensive slowpath, such as
after the oom reaper has grabbed mm->mmap_sem of a still alive oom
victim.

In the current design, khugepaged needs to acquire mmap_sem before
scanning an mm. But in some corner cases, khugepaged may scan a process
which is modifying its memory mapping, so khugepaged blocks in
uninterruptible state. But the process might hold the mmap_sem for a
long time when modifying a huge memory space and it may trigger the
below khugepaged hung issue:
INFO: task khugepaged:270 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

So it sounds pointless to just block khugepaged waiting for the
semaphore so replace down_read() with down_read_trylock() to move to
scan the next mm quickly instead of just blocking on the semaphore so
that other processes can get more chances to install THP. Then
khugepaged can come back to scan the skipped mm when it has finished the
current round full_scan.
And it appears that the change can improve khugepaged efficiency a
little bit.

Instead of marking the pmd ready for split, invalidate the pmd. This

Vlastimil noted that pmdp_invalidate() is not atomic and we can lose
dirty and access bits if CPU sets them after pmdp dereference, but
before set_pmd_at().
The patch change pmdp_invalidate() to make the entry non-present
atomically and return previous value of the entry. This value can be
used to check if CPU set dirty/accessed bits under us.
The race window is very small and I haven't seen any reports that can be
attributed to the bug. For this reason, I don't think backporting to
stable trees needed.

Several users of unmap_mapping_range() would prefer to express their
range in pages rather than bytes. Unfortuately, on a 32-bit kernel, you
have to remember to cast your page number to a 64-bit type before
shifting it, and four places in the current tree didn't remember to do
that. That's a sign of a bad interface.
Conveniently, unmap_mapping_range() actually converts from bytes into

hugepages_treat_as_movable has been introduced by 396faf0303 ("Allow
huge page allocations to use GFP_HIGH_MOVABLE") to allow hugetlb
allocations from ZONE_MOVABLE even when hugetlb pages were not
migrateable. The purpose of the movable zone was different at the time.
It aimed at reducing memory fragmentation and hugetlb pages being long
lived and large werre not contributing to the fragmentation so it was
acceptable to use the zone back then.
Things have changed though and the primary purpose of the zone became
migratability guarantee. If we allow non migrateable hugetlb pages to
be in ZONE_MOVABLE memory hotplug might fail to offline the memory.
Remove the knob and only rely on hugepage_migration_supported to allow
movable zones.
Mel said:
: Primarily it was aimed at allowing the hugetlb pool to safely shrink with
: the ability to grow it again. The use case was for batched jobs, some of
: which needed huge pages and others that did not but didn't want the memory
: useless pinned in the huge pages pool.
:
: I suspect that more users rely on THP than hugetlbfs for flexible use of
: huge pages with fallback options so I think that removing the option
: should be ok.

Shakeel Butt reported he has observed in production systems that the job
loader gets stuck for 10s of seconds while doing a mount operation. It
turns out that it was stuck in register_shrinker() because some
unrelated job was under memory pressure and was spending time in
shrink_slab(). Machines have a lot of shrinkers registered and jobs
under memory pressure have to traverse all of those memcg-aware
shrinkers and affect unrelated jobs which want to register their own
shrinkers.
To solve the issue, this patch simply bails out slab shrinking if it is
found that someone wants to register a shrinker in parallel. A downside
is it could cause unfair shrinking between shrinkers. However, it
should be rare and we can add compilcated logic if we find it's not
enough.

We've seen memory.stat reads in top-level cgroups take up to fourteen
seconds during a userspace bug that created tens of thousands of ghost
cgroups pinned by lingering page cache.
Even with a more reasonable number of cgroups, aggregating memory.stat
is unnecessarily heavy. The complexity is this:
nr_cgroups * nr_stat_items * nr_possible_cpus
where the stat items are ~70 at this point. With 128 cgroups and 128
CPUs - decent, not enormous setups - reading the top-level memory.stat
has to aggregate over a million per-cpu counters. This doesn't scale.
Instead of spreading the source of truth across all CPUs, use the
per-cpu counters merely to batch updates to shared atomic counters.
This is the same as the per-cpu stocks we use for charging memory to the
shared atomic page_counters, and also the way the global vmstat counters
are implemented.
Vmstat has elaborate spilling thresholds that depend on the number of
CPUs, amount of memory, and memory pressure - carefully balancing the
cost of counter updates with the amount of per-cpu error. That's
because the vmstat counters are system-wide, but also used for decisions
inside the kernel (e.g. NR_FREE_PAGES in the allocator). Neither is
true for the memory controller.
Use the same static batch size we already use for page_counter updates
during charging. The per-cpu error in the stats will be 128k, which is
an acceptable ratio of cores to memory accounting granularity.

In deferred_init_range() we initialize struct pages, and also free them
to buddy allocator. We do it in separate loops, because buddy page is
computed ahead, so we do not want to access a struct page that has not
been initialized yet.
There is still, however, a corner case where it is potentially possible
to access uninitialized struct page: this is when buddy page is from the
next memblock range.
This patch fixes this problem by splitting deferred_init_range() into
two functions: one to initialize struct pages, and another to free them.
In addition, this patch brings the following improvements:
- Get rid of __def_free() helper function. And simplifies loop logic by
adding a new pfn validity check function: deferred_pfn_valid().
- Reduces number of variables that we track. So, there is a higher
chance that we will avoid using stack to store/load variables inside
hot loops.
- Enables future multi-threading of these functions: do initialization
in multiple threads, wait for all threads to finish, do freeing part
in multithreading.
Tested on x86 with 1T of memory to make sure no regressions are
introduced.

Previously we were using the ratio of the number of lru pages scanned to
the number of eligible lru pages to determine the number of slab objects
to scan. The problem with this is that these two things have nothing to
do with each other, so in slab heavy work loads where there is little to
no page cache we can end up with the pages scanned being a very low
number. This means that we reclaim next to no slab pages and waste a
lot of time reclaiming small amounts of space.
Consider the following scenario, where we have the following values and
the rest of the memory usage is in slab
Active: 58840 kB
Inactive: 46860 kB
Every time we do a get_scan_count() we do this
scan = size >> sc->priority
where sc->priority starts at DEF_PRIORITY, which is 12. The first loop
through reclaim would result in a scan target of 2 pages to 11715 total
inactive pages, and 3 pages to 14710 total active pages. This is a
really really small target for a system that is entirely slab pages.
And this is super optimistic, this assumes we even get to scan these
pages. We don't increment sc->nr_scanned unless we 1) isolate the page,
which assumes it's not in use, and 2) can lock the page. Under pressure
these numbers could probably go down, I'm sure there's some random pages
from daemons that aren't actually in use, so the targets get even
smaller.
Instead use sc->priority in the same way we use it to determine scan
amounts for the lru's. This generally equates to pages. Consider the
following
slab_pages = (nr_objects * object_size) / PAGE_SIZE
What we would like to do is
scan = slab_pages >> sc->priority
but we don't know the number of slab pages each shrinker controls, only
the objects. However say that theoretically we knew how many pages a
shrinker controlled, we'd still have to convert this to objects, which
would look like the following
scan = shrinker_pages >> sc->priority
scan_objects = (PAGE_SIZE / object_size) * scan
or written another way
scan_objects = (shrinker_pages >> sc->priority) *
(PAGE_SIZE / object_size)
which can thus be written
scan_objects = ((shrinker_pages * PAGE_SIZE) / object_size) >>
sc->priority
which is just
scan_objects = nr_objects >> sc->priority
We don't need to know exactly how many pages each shrinker represents,
it's objects are all the information we need. Making this change allows
us to place an appropriate amount of pressure on the shrinker pools for
their relative size.

Currently we display some hugepage statistics (total, free, etc) in
/proc/meminfo, but only for default hugepage size (e.g. 2Mb).
If hugepages of different sizes are used (like 2Mb and 1Gb on x86-64),
/proc/meminfo output can be confusing, as non-default sized hugepages
are not reflected at all, and there are no signs that they are existing
and consuming system memory.
To solve this problem, let's display the total amount of memory,
consumed by hugetlb pages of all sized (both free and used). Let's call
it "Hugetlb", and display size in kB to match generic /proc/meminfo
style.
For example, (1024 2Mb pages and 2 1Gb pages are pre-allocated):
$ cat /proc/meminfo
MemTotal: 8168984 kB
MemFree: 3789276 kB
<...>
CmaFree: 0 kB
HugePages_Total: 1024
HugePages_Free: 1024
HugePages_Rsvd: 0
HugePages_Surp: 0
Hugepagesize: 2048 kB
Hugetlb: 4194304 kB
DirectMap4k: 32632 kB
DirectMap2M: 4161536 kB
DirectMap1G: 6291456 kB
Also, this patch updates corresponding docs to reflect Hugetlb entry
meaning and difference between Hugetlb and HugePages_Total * Hugepagesize.

Pulling cpu hotplug locks inside the mm core function like
lru_add_drain_all just asks for problems and the recent lockdep splat
[1] just proves this. While the usage in that particular case might be
wrong we should avoid the locking as lru_add_drain_all() is used in many
places. It seems that this is not all that hard to achieve actually.
We have done the same thing for drain_all_pages which is analogous by
commit a459eeb7b8 ("mm, page_alloc: do not depend on cpu hotplug locks
inside the allocator"). All we have to care about is to handle
- the work item might be executed on a different cpu in worker from
unbound pool so it doesn't run on pinned on the cpu
- we have to make sure that we do not race with page_alloc_cpu_dead
calling lru_add_drain_cpu
the first part is already handled because the worker calls lru_add_drain
which disables preemption when calling lru_add_drain_cpu on the local
cpu it is draining. The later is true because page_alloc_cpu_dead is
called on the controlling CPU after the hotplugged CPU vanished
completely.

migrate_pages01 14 TFAIL : migrate_pages_common.c:45: unexpected failure - returned value = 0, expected: -1

migrate_pages(0, , {0x0000000000000001}, 64, , {0x0000000000000010}, 64) = 0
The new nodes specifies one or more node IDs that are greater than the
maximum supported node ID, however, the errno is not set to EINVAL as
expected.
As man pages of set_mempolicy[1], mbind[2], and migrate_pages[3]
mentioned, when nodemask specifies one or more node IDs that are greater
than the maximum supported node ID, the errno should set to EINVAL.
However, get_nodes only check whether the part of bits
[BITS_PER_LONG*BITS_TO_LONGS(MAX_NUMNODES), maxnode) is zero or not, and
remain [MAX_NUMNODES, BITS_PER_LONG*BITS_TO_LONGS(MAX_NUMNODES)
unchecked.
This patch is to check the bits of [MAX_NUMNODES, maxnode) in get_nodes
to let migrate_pages set the errno to EINVAL when nodemask specifies one
or more node IDs that are greater than the maximum supported node ID,
which follows the manpage's guide.

Also, there is no need to depend on MEMORY_HOTPLUG, as initialization
code does not really use hotplug memory functionality. So, we can
remove this requirement as well.
This patch allows to use deferred struct page initialization on all
platforms with memblock allocator.

Zswap is a cache which compresses the pages that are being swapped out
and stores them into a dynamically allocated RAM-based memory pool.
Experiments have shown that around 10-20% of pages stored in zswap are
same-filled pages (i.e. contents of the page are all same), but these
pages are handled as normal pages by compressing and allocating memory
in the pool.
This patch adds a check in zswap_frontswap_store() to identify
same-filled page before compression of the page. If the page is a
same-filled page, set zswap_entry.length to zero, save the same-filled
value and skip the compression of the page and alloction of memory in
zpool. In zswap_frontswap_load(), check if value of zswap_entry.length
is zero corresponding to the page to be loaded. If zswap_entry.length
is zero, fill the page with same-filled value. This saves the
decompression time during load.
On a ARM Quad Core 32-bit device with 1.5GB RAM by launching and
relaunching different applications, out of ~64000 pages stored in zswap,
~11000 pages were same-value filled pages (including zero-filled pages)
and ~9000 pages were zero-filled pages.
An average of 17% of pages(including zero-filled pages) in zswap are
same-value filled pages and 14% pages are zero-filled pages. An average
of 3% of pages are same-filled non-zero pages.
The below table shows the execution time profiling with the patch.
Baseline With patch % Improvement
-----------------------------------------------------------------
*Zswap Store Time 26.5ms 18ms 32%
(of same value pages)
*Zswap Load Time
(of same value pages) 25.5ms 13ms 49%
-----------------------------------------------------------------
On Ubuntu PC with 2GB RAM, while executing kernel build and other test
scripts and running multimedia applications, out of 360000 pages stored
in zswap 78000(~22%) of pages were found to be same-value filled pages
(including zero-filled pages) and 64000(~17%) are zero-filled pages. So
an average of %5 of pages are same-filled non-zero pages.
The below table shows the execution time profiling with the patch.
Baseline With patch % Improvement
-----------------------------------------------------------------
*Zswap Store Time 91ms 74ms 19%
(of same value pages)
*Zswap Load Time 50ms 7.5ms 85%
(of same value pages)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
*The execution times may vary with test device used.

: When doing a lot of swap where all (or almost all) pages are same-value, I
: found this patch does save both time and space, significantly. The exact
: improvement in time and space depends on which compressor is being used,
: but roughly agrees with the numbers you listed.
:
: In the worst case situation, where all (or almost all) pages have the
: same-value *except* the final long (meaning, zswap will check each long on
: the entire page but then still have to pass the page to the compressor),
: the same-value check is around 10-15% of the total time spent in
: zswap_frontswap_store(). That's a not-insignificant amount of time, but
: it's not huge. Considering that most systems will probably be swapping
: pages that aren't similar to the worst case (although I don't have any
: data to know that), I'd say the improvement is worth the possible
: worst-case performance impact.

The comment: "put_cpu_partial() is done without interrupts disabled and
without preemption disabled" looks obsolete, so remove it.

slab_state is being set to "UP" in create_kmalloc_caches(), and later on
we set it again in kmem_cache_init_late(), but slab_state does not
change in the meantime.
Remove the redundant assignment from kmem_cache_init_late().
And unless I overlooked anything, the same goes for "slab_state = FULL".
slab_state is set to "FULL" in kmem_cache_init_late(), but it is later
being set again in cpucache_init(), which gets called from
do_initcall_level(). So remove the assignment from cpucache_init() as
well.

Pull poll annotations from Al Viro:
"This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates
the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as
'make ->poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local
variables used to hold the future return value'.
Some of the obvious brainos found in process are fixed (e.g. POLLIN
misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is
low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. ->poll() instance
deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those
in this series - it's large enough as it is.
Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and
eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were
equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are
arch-independent, but POLL### are not.
The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from
the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them
in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this
is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll()
work on all architectures.
As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and
it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other
architectures. EPOLLWRBAND and EPOLLRDHUP, OTOH, are never triggered
at all on sparc. With this patch they should work consistently on all
architectures"

Pull siginfo cleanups from Eric Biederman:
"Long ago when 2.4 was just a testing release copy_siginfo_to_user was
made to copy individual fields to userspace, possibly for efficiency
and to ensure initialized values were not copied to userspace.
Unfortunately the design was complex, it's assumptions unstated, and
humans are fallible and so while it worked much of the time that
design failed to ensure unitialized memory is not copied to userspace.
This set of changes is part of a new design to clean up siginfo and
simplify things, and hopefully make the siginfo handling robust enough
that a simple inspection of the code can be made to ensure we don't
copy any unitializied fields to userspace.
The design is to unify struct siginfo and struct compat_siginfo into a
single definition that is shared between all architectures so that
anyone adding to the set of information shared with struct siginfo can
see the whole picture. Hopefully ensuring all future si_code
assignments are arch independent.
The design is to unify copy_siginfo_to_user32 and
copy_siginfo_from_user32 so that those function are complete and cope
with all of the different cases documented in signinfo_layout. I don't
think there was a single implementation of either of those functions
that was complete and correct before my changes unified them.
The design is to introduce a series of helpers including
force_siginfo_fault that take the values that are needed in struct
siginfo and build the siginfo structure for their callers. Ensuring
struct siginfo is built correctly.
The remaining work for 4.17 (unless someone thinks it is post -rc1
material) is to push usage of those helpers down into the
architectures so that architecture specific code will not need to deal
with the fiddly work of intializing struct siginfo, and then when
struct siginfo is guaranteed to be fully initialized change copy
siginfo_to_user into a simple wrapper around copy_to_user.
Further there is work in progress on the issues that have been
documented requires arch specific knowledge to sort out.
The changes below fix or at least document all of the issues that have
been found with siginfo generation. Then proceed to unify struct
siginfo the 32 bit helpers that copy siginfo to and from userspace,
and generally clean up anything that is not arch specific with regards
to siginfo generation.
It is a lot but with the unification you can of siginfo you can
already see the code reduction in the kernel"

The new helper would check if the pfn belongs to the page. For huge
pages it checks if the PFN is within range covered by the huge page.
The helper is used in check_pte(). The original code the helper replaces
had two call to page_to_pfn(). page_to_pfn() is relatively costly.
Although current GCC is able to optimize code to have one call, it's
better to do this explicitly.
