Revert "vfs: add lookup_hash() helper"

This reverts commit 3c9fe8cdff1b889a059a30d22f130372f2b3885f.

As Miklos points out in commit c1b2cc1a765a, the "lookup_hash()" helper
is now unused, and in fact, with the hash salting changes, since the
hash of a dentry name now depends on the directory dentry it is in, the
helper function isn't even really likely to be useful.

So rather than keep it around in case somebody else might end up finding
a use for it, let's just remove the helper and not trick people into
thinking it might be a useful thing.

For example, I had obviously completely missed how the helper didn't
follow the normal dentry hashing patterns, and how the hash salting
patch broke overlayfs.  Things would quietly build and look sane, but
not work.

inodes are shared for hard links on upper.  Hard links on lower are still

ovl: update atime on upper

Fix atime update logic in overlayfs.

This patch adds an i_op->update_time() handler to overlayfs inodes.  This
forwards atime updates to the upper layer only.  No atime updates are done
on lower layers.

Remove implicit atime updates to underlying files and directories with
O_NOATIME.  Remove explicit atime update in ovl_readlink().

Clear atime related mnt flags from cloned upper mount.  This means atime
updates are controlled purely by overlayfs mount options.

When creating directory in workdir, the group/sgid inheritance from the

ovl: simplify permission checking

The fact that we always do permission checking on the overlay inode and
clear MAY_WRITE for checking access to the lower inode allows cruft to be
removed from ovl_permission().

1) "default_permissions" option effectively did generic_permission() on the
overlay inode with i_mode, i_uid and i_gid updated from underlying
filesystem.  This is what we do by default now.  It did the update using
vfs_getattr() but that's only needed if the underlying filesystem can
change (which is not allowed).  We may later introduce a "paranoia_mode"
that verifies that mode/uid/gid are not changed.

2) splitting out the IS_RDONLY() check from inode_permission() also becomes
unnecessary once we remove the MAY_WRITE from the lower inode check.

ovl: do not require mounter to have MAY_WRITE on lower

Now we have two levels of checks in ovl_permission(). overlay inode
is checked with the creds of task while underlying inode is checked
with the creds of mounter.

Looks like mounter does not have to have WRITE access to files on lower/.
So remove the MAY_WRITE from access mask for checks on underlying
lower inode.

This means task should still have the MAY_WRITE permission on lower
inode and mounter is not required to have MAY_WRITE.

It also solves the problem of read only NFS mounts being used as lower.
If __inode_permission(lower_inode, MAY_WRITE) is called on read only
NFS, it fails. By resetting MAY_WRITE, check succeeds and case of
read only NFS shold work with overlay without having to specify any
special mount options (default permission).

8 years agomm, compaction: simplify contended compaction handling

mm, compaction: simplify contended compaction handling

Async compaction detects contention either due to failing trylock on
zone->lock or lru_lock, or by need_resched().  Since 1f9efdef4f3f ("mm,
compaction: khugepaged should not give up due to need_resched()") the
code got quite complicated to distinguish these two up to the
__alloc_pages_slowpath() level, so different decisions could be taken
for khugepaged allocations.

After the recent changes, khugepaged allocations don't check for
contended compaction anymore, so we again don't need to distinguish lock
and sched contention, and simplify the current convoluted code a lot.

However, I believe it's also possible to simplify even more and
completely remove the check for contended compaction after the initial
async compaction for costly orders, which was originally aimed at THP
page fault allocations.  There are several reasons why this can be done
now:

- with the new defaults, THP page faults no longer do reclaim/compaction at
  all, unless the system admin has overridden the default, or application has
  indicated via madvise that it can benefit from THP's. In both cases, it
  means that the potential extra latency is expected and worth the benefits.
- even if reclaim/compaction proceeds after this patch where it previously
  wouldn't, the second compaction attempt is still async and will detect the
  contention and back off, if the contention persists
- there are still heuristics like deferred compaction and pageblock skip bits
  in place that prevent excessive THP page fault latencies

mm, compaction: introduce direct compaction priority

In the context of direct compaction, for some types of allocations we
would like the compaction to either succeed or definitely fail while
trying as hard as possible.  Current async/sync_light migration mode is
insufficient, as there are heuristics such as caching scanner positions,
marking pageblocks as unsuitable or deferring compaction for a zone.  At
least the final compaction attempt should be able to override these
heuristics.

To communicate how hard compaction should try, we replace migration mode
with a new enum compact_priority and change the relevant function
signatures.  In compact_zone_order() where struct compact_control is
constructed, the priority is mapped to suitable control flags.  This
patch itself has no functional change, as the current priority levels
are mapped back to the same migration modes as before.  Expanding them
will be done next.

Note that !CONFIG_COMPACTION variant of try_to_compact_pages() is
removed, as the only caller exists under CONFIG_COMPACTION.

8 years agomm, thp: remove __GFP_NORETRY from khugepaged and madvised allocations

mm, thp: remove __GFP_NORETRY from khugepaged and madvised allocations

After the previous patch, we can distinguish costly allocations that
should be really lightweight, such as THP page faults, with
__GFP_NORETRY.  This means we don't need to recognize khugepaged
allocations via PF_KTHREAD anymore.  We can also change THP page faults
in areas where madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) was used to try as hard as
khugepaged, as the process has indicated that it benefits from THP's and
is willing to pay some initial latency costs.

We can also make the flags handling less cryptic by distinguishing
GFP_TRANSHUGE_LIGHT (no reclaim at all, default mode in page fault) from
GFP_TRANSHUGE (only direct reclaim, khugepaged default).  Adding
__GFP_NORETRY or __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM is done where needed.

The patch effectively changes the current GFP_TRANSHUGE users as
follows:

* get_huge_zero_page() - the zero page lifetime should be relatively
  long and it's shared by multiple users, so it's worth spending some
  effort on it.  We use GFP_TRANSHUGE, and __GFP_NORETRY is not added.
  This also restores direct reclaim to this allocation, which was
  unintentionally removed by commit e4a49efe4e7e ("mm: thp: set THP defrag
  by default to madvise and add a stall-free defrag option")

* alloc_hugepage_khugepaged_gfpmask() - this is khugepaged, so latency
  is not an issue.  So if khugepaged "defrag" is enabled (the default), do
  reclaim via GFP_TRANSHUGE without __GFP_NORETRY.  We can remove the
  PF_KTHREAD check from page alloc.

  As a side-effect, khugepaged will now no longer check if the initial
  compaction was deferred or contended.  This is OK, as khugepaged sleep
  times between collapsion attempts are long enough to prevent noticeable
  disruption, so we should allow it to spend some effort.

* migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() - already was masking out
  __GFP_RECLAIM, so just convert to GFP_TRANSHUGE_LIGHT which is
  equivalent.

* alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask() - vma's with VM_HUGEPAGE (via madvise)
  are now allocating without __GFP_NORETRY.  Other vma's keep using
  __GFP_NORETRY if direct reclaim/compaction is at all allowed (by default
  it's allowed only for madvised vma's).  The rest is conversion to
  GFP_TRANSHUGE(_LIGHT).

8 years agomm, page_alloc: make THP-specific decisions more generic

mm, page_alloc: make THP-specific decisions more generic

Since THP allocations during page faults can be costly, extra decisions
are employed for them to avoid excessive reclaim and compaction, if the
initial compaction doesn't look promising.  The detection has never been
perfect as there is no gfp flag specific to THP allocations.  At this
moment it checks the whole combination of flags that makes up
GFP_TRANSHUGE, and hopes that no other users of such combination exist,
or would mind being treated the same way.  Extra care is also taken to
separate allocations from khugepaged, where latency doesn't matter that
much.

It is however possible to distinguish these allocations in a simpler and
more reliable way.  The key observation is that after the initial
compaction followed by the first iteration of "standard"
reclaim/compaction, both __GFP_NORETRY allocations and costly
allocations without __GFP_REPEAT are declared as failures:

        /* Do not loop if specifically requested */
        if (gfp_mask & __GFP_NORETRY)
                goto nopage;

        /*
         * Do not retry costly high order allocations unless they are
         * __GFP_REPEAT
         */
        if (order > PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER && !(gfp_mask & __GFP_REPEAT))
                goto nopage;

This means we can further distinguish allocations that are costly order
*and* additionally include the __GFP_NORETRY flag.  As it happens,
GFP_TRANSHUGE allocations do already fall into this category.  This will
also allow other costly allocations with similar high-order benefit vs
latency considerations to use this semantic.  Furthermore, we can
distinguish THP allocations that should try a bit harder (such as from
khugepageed) by removing __GFP_NORETRY, as will be done in the next
patch.

8 years agomm, page_alloc: restructure direct compaction handling in slowpath
Vlastimil Babka [Thu, 28 Jul 2016 22:49:19 +0000 (15:49 -0700)]
mm, page_alloc: restructure direct compaction handling in slowpath

The retry loop in __alloc_pages_slowpath is supposed to keep trying
reclaim and compaction (and OOM), until either the allocation succeeds,
or returns with failure.  Success here is more probable when reclaim
precedes compaction, as certain watermarks have to be met for compaction
to even try, and more free pages increase the probability of compaction
success.  On the other hand, starting with light async compaction (if
the watermarks allow it), can be more efficient, especially for smaller
orders, if there's enough free memory which is just fragmented.

Thus, the current code starts with compaction before reclaim, and to
make sure that the last reclaim is always followed by a final
compaction, there's another direct compaction call at the end of the
loop.  This makes the code hard to follow and adds some duplicated
handling of migration_mode decisions.  It's also somewhat inefficient
that even if reclaim or compaction decides not to retry, the final
compaction is still attempted.  Some gfp flags combination also shortcut
these retry decisions by "goto noretry;", making it even harder to
follow.

This patch attempts to restructure the code with only minimal functional
changes.  The call to the first compaction and THP-specific checks are
now placed above the retry loop, and the "noretry" direct compaction is
removed.

The initial compaction is additionally restricted only to costly orders,
as we can expect smaller orders to be held back by watermarks, and only
larger orders to suffer primarily from fragmentation.  This better
matches the checks in reclaim's shrink_zones().

There are two other smaller functional changes.  One is that the upgrade
from async migration to light sync migration will always occur after the
initial compaction.  This is how it has been until recent patch "mm,
oom: protect !costly allocations some more", which introduced upgrading
the mode based on COMPACT_COMPLETE result, but kept the final compaction
always upgraded, which made it even more special.  It's better to return
to the simpler handling for now, as migration modes will be further
modified later in the series.

The second change is that once both reclaim and compaction declare it's
not worth to retry the reclaim/compact loop, there is no final
compaction attempt.  As argued above, this is intentional.  If that
final compaction were to succeed, it would be due to a wrong retry
decision, or simply a race with somebody else freeing memory for us.

The main outcome of this patch should be simpler code.  Logically, the
initial compaction without reclaim is the exceptional case to the
reclaim/compaction scheme, but prior to the patch, it was the last loop
iteration that was exceptional.  Now the code matches the logic better.
The change also enable the following patches.

mm, page_alloc: don't retry initial attempt in slowpath

After __alloc_pages_slowpath() sets up new alloc_flags and wakes up
kswapd, it first tries get_page_from_freelist() with the new
alloc_flags, as it may succeed e.g. due to using min watermark instead
of low watermark.  It makes sense to to do this attempt before adjusting
zonelist based on alloc_flags/gfp_mask, as it's still relatively a fast
path if we just wake up kswapd and successfully allocate.

This patch therefore moves the initial attempt above the retry label and
reorganizes a bit the part below the retry label.  We still have to
attempt get_page_from_freelist() on each retry, as some allocations
cannot do that as part of direct reclaim or compaction, and yet are not
allowed to fail (even though they do a WARN_ON_ONCE() and thus should
not exist).  We can reuse the call meant for ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS attempt
and just set alloc_flags to ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS if the context allows
it.  As a side-effect, the attempts from direct reclaim/compaction will
also no longer obey watermarks once this is set, but there's little harm
in that.

Kswapd wakeups are also done on each retry to be safe from potential
races resulting in kswapd going to sleep while a process (that may not
be able to reclaim by itself) is still looping.

8 years agomm: fix use-after-free if memory allocation failed in vma_adjust()
Kirill A. Shutemov [Thu, 28 Jul 2016 22:49:01 +0000 (15:49 -0700)]
mm: fix use-after-free if memory allocation failed in vma_adjust()

There's one case when vma_adjust() expands the vma, overlapping with
*two* next vma.  See case 6 of mprotect, described in the comment to
vma_merge().

To handle this (and only this) situation we iterate twice over main part
of the function.  See "goto again".

Vegard reported[1] that he sees out-of-bounds access complain from
KASAN, if anon_vma_clone() on the *second* iteration fails.

This happens because we free 'next' vma by the end of first iteration
and don't have a way to undo this if anon_vma_clone() fails on the
second iteration.

The solution is to do all required allocations upfront, before we touch
vmas.

The allocation on the second iteration is only required if first two
vmas don't have anon_vma, but third does.  So we need, in total, one
anon_vma_clone() call.

It's easy to adjust 'exporter' to the third vma for such case.

8 years agomm: optimize copy_page_to/from_iter_iovec

mm: optimize copy_page_to/from_iter_iovec

copy_page_to_iter_iovec() and copy_page_from_iter_iovec() copy some data
to userspace or from userspace.  These functions have a fast path where
they map a page using kmap_atomic and a slow path where they use kmap.

kmap is slower than kmap_atomic, so the fast path is preferred.

However, on kernels without highmem support, kmap just calls
page_address, so there is no need to avoid kmap.  On kernels without
highmem support, the fast path just increases code size (and cache
footprint) and it doesn't improve copy performance in any way.

This patch enables the fast path only if CONFIG_HIGHMEM is defined.

Code size reduced by this patch:
  x86 (without highmem)   928
  x86-64   960

8 years agoRevert "mm, mempool: only set __GFP_NOMEMALLOC if there are free elements"
Michal Hocko [Thu, 28 Jul 2016 22:48:44 +0000 (15:48 -0700)]
Revert "mm, mempool: only set __GFP_NOMEMALLOC if there are free elements"

This reverts commit f9054c70d28b ("mm, mempool: only set __GFP_NOMEMALLOC
if there are free elements").

There has been a report about OOM killer invoked when swapping out to a
dm-crypt device.  The primary reason seems to be that the swapout out IO
managed to completely deplete memory reserves.  Ondrej was able to
bisect and explained the issue by pointing to f9054c70d28b ("mm,
mempool: only set __GFP_NOMEMALLOC if there are free elements").

The reason is that the swapout path is not throttled properly because
the md-raid layer needs to allocate from the generic_make_request path
which means it allocates from the PF_MEMALLOC context.  dm layer uses
mempool_alloc in order to guarantee a forward progress which used to
inhibit access to memory reserves when using page allocator.  This has
changed by f9054c70d28b ("mm, mempool: only set __GFP_NOMEMALLOC if
there are free elements") which has dropped the __GFP_NOMEMALLOC
protection when the memory pool is depleted.

If we are running out of memory and the only way forward to free memory
is to perform swapout we just keep consuming memory reserves rather than
throttling the mempool allocations and allowing the pending IO to
complete up to a moment when the memory is depleted completely and there
is no way forward but invoking the OOM killer.  This is less than
optimal.

The original intention of f9054c70d28b was to help with the OOM
situations where the oom victim depends on mempool allocation to make a
forward progress.  David has mentioned the following backtrace:

  schedule
  schedule_timeout
  io_schedule_timeout
  mempool_alloc
  __split_and_process_bio
  dm_request
  generic_make_request
  submit_bio
  mpage_readpages
  ext4_readpages
  __do_page_cache_readahead
  ra_submit
  filemap_fault
  handle_mm_fault
  __do_page_fault
  do_page_fault
  page_fault

We do not know more about why the mempool is depleted without being
replenished in time, though.  In any case the dm layer shouldn't depend
on any allocations outside of the dedicated pools so a forward progress
should be guaranteed.  If this is not the case then the dm should be
fixed rather than papering over the problem and postponing it to later
by accessing more memory reserves.

mempools are a mechanism to maintain dedicated memory reserves to
guaratee forward progress.  Allowing them an unbounded access to the
page allocator memory reserves is going against the whole purpose of
this mechanism.

8 years agomm/memblock.c: add new infrastructure to address the mem limit issue
Dennis Chen [Thu, 28 Jul 2016 22:48:26 +0000 (15:48 -0700)]
mm/memblock.c: add new infrastructure to address the mem limit issue

In some cases, memblock is queried by kernel to determine whether a
specified address is RAM or not.  For example, the ACPI core needs this
information to determine which attributes to use when mapping ACPI
regions(acpi_os_ioremap).  Use of incorrect memory types can result in
faults, data corruption, or other issues.

Removing memory with memblock_enforce_memory_limit() throws away this
information, and so a kernel booted with 'mem=' may suffer from the
issues described above.  To avoid this, we need to keep those NOMAP
regions instead of removing all above the limit, which preserves the
information we need while preventing other use of those regions.

This patch adds new infrastructure to retain all NOMAP memblock regions
while removing others, to cater for this.

The problem is due to the active deactivation logic in
inactive_list_is_low:

Node 0 active_anon:404412kB inactive_anon:409040kB

IOW, (inactive_anon of node * inactive_ratio > active_anon of node) due
to highmem anonymous stat so VM never deactivates normal zone's
anonymous pages.

This patch is a modified version of Minchan's original solution but
based upon it.  The problem with Minchan's patch is that any low zone
with an imbalanced list could force a rotation.

In this patch, a zone-constrained global reclaim will rotate the list if
the inactive/active ratio of all eligible zones needs to be corrected.
It is possible that higher zone pages will be initially rotated
prematurely but this is the safer choice to maintain overall LRU age.

8 years agomm: remove reclaim and compaction retry approximations

mm: remove reclaim and compaction retry approximations

If per-zone LRU accounting is available then there is no point
approximating whether reclaim and compaction should retry based on pgdat
statistics.  This is effectively a revert of "mm, vmstat: remove zone
and node double accounting by approximating retries" with the difference
that inactive/active stats are still available.  This preserves the
history of why the approximation was retried and why it had to be
reverted to handle OOM kills on 32-bit systems.

LRU list contents and counts are updated separately.  Counts are updated
before pages are added to the LRU and updated after pages are removed.
The warning above is from a check in mem_cgroup_update_lru_size that
ensures that list sizes of zero are empty.

The problem is that node-lru needs to account for highmem pages if
CONFIG_HIGHMEM is set.  One impact of the implementation is that the
sizes are updated in multiple passes when pages from multiple zones were
isolated.  This happens whether HIGHMEM is set or not.  When multiple
zones are isolated, it's possible for a debugging check in memcg to be
tripped.

This patch forces all the zone counts to be updated before the memcg
function is called.

8 years agomm, vmstat: remove zone and node double accounting by approximating retries
Mel Gorman [Thu, 28 Jul 2016 22:47:05 +0000 (15:47 -0700)]
mm, vmstat: remove zone and node double accounting by approximating retries

The number of LRU pages, dirty pages and writeback pages must be
accounted for on both zones and nodes because of the reclaim retry
logic, compaction retry logic and highmem calculations all depending on
per-zone stats.

Many lowmem allocations are immune from OOM kill due to a check in
__alloc_pages_may_oom for (ac->high_zoneidx < ZONE_NORMAL) since commit
03668b3ceb0c ("oom: avoid oom killer for lowmem allocations").  The
exception is costly high-order allocations or allocations that cannot
fail.  If the __alloc_pages_may_oom avoids OOM-kill for low-order lowmem
allocations then it would fall through to __alloc_pages_direct_compact.

This patch will blindly retry reclaim for zone-constrained allocations
in should_reclaim_retry up to MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES.  This is not ideal
but without per-zone stats there are not many alternatives.  The impact
it that zone-constrained allocations may delay before considering the
OOM killer.

As there is no guarantee enough memory can ever be freed to satisfy
compaction, this patch avoids retrying compaction for zone-contrained
allocations.

In combination, that means that the per-node stats can be used when
deciding whether to continue reclaim using a rough approximation.  While
it is possible this will make the wrong decision on occasion, it will
not infinite loop as the number of reclaim attempts is capped by
MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES.

The final step is calculating the number of dirtyable highmem pages.  As
those calculations only care about the global count of file pages in
highmem.  This patch uses a global counter used instead of per-zone
stats as it is sufficient.

In combination, this allows the per-zone LRU and dirty state counters to
be removed.

8 years agomm: vmstat: account per-zone stalls and pages skipped during reclaim
Mel Gorman [Thu, 28 Jul 2016 22:46:59 +0000 (15:46 -0700)]
mm: vmstat: account per-zone stalls and pages skipped during reclaim

The vmstat allocstall was fairly useful in the general sense but
node-based LRUs change that.  It's important to know if a stall was for
an address-limited allocation request as this will require skipping
pages from other zones.  This patch adds pgstall_* counters to replace
allocstall.  The sum of the counters will equal the old allocstall so it
can be trivially recalculated.  A high number of address-limited
allocation requests may result in a lot of useless LRU scanning for
suitable pages.

As address-limited allocations require pages to be skipped, it's
important to know how much useless LRU scanning took place so this patch
adds pgskip* counters.  This yields the following model

1. The number of address-space limited stalls can be accounted for (pgstall)
2. The amount of useless work required to reclaim the data is accounted (pgskip)
3. The total number of scans is available from pgscan_kswapd and pgscan_direct
   so from that the ratio of useful to useless scans can be calculated.
