* memcg: move charge of file pagesDaisuke Nishimura2010-05-271-0/+64
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for moving charge of file pages, which include normal file, tmpfs file and swaps of tmpfs file. It's enabled by setting bit 1 of <target cgroup>/memory.move_charge_at_immigrate. Unlike the case of anonymous pages, file pages(and swaps) in the range mmapped by the task will be moved even if the task hasn't done page fault, i.e. they might not be the task's "RSS", but other task's "RSS" that maps the same file. And mapcount of the page is ignored(the page can be moved even if page_mapcount(page) > 1). So, conditions that the page/swap should be met to be moved is that it must be in the range mmapped by the target task and it must be charged to the old cgroup.

* sanitize xattr handler prototypesChristoph Hellwig2009-12-161-9/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a flags argument to struct xattr_handler and pass it to all xattr handler methods. This allows using the same methods for multiple handlers, e.g. for the ACL methods which perform exactly the same action for the access and default ACLs, just using a different underlying attribute. With a little more groundwork it'll also allow sharing the methods for the regular user/trusted/secure handlers in extN, ocfs2 and jffs2 like it's already done for xfs in this patch. Also change the inode argument to the handlers to a dentry to allow using the handlers mechnism for filesystems that require it later, e.g. cifs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The dirtying of page and set_page_dirty() can be moved into the page lock. - In shmem_write_end(), the page was dirtied while the page lock was held, but it's being marked dirty just after dropping the page lock. - In shmem_symlink(), both dirtying and marking can be moved into page lock. It's valuable for the hwpoison code to know whether one bad page can be dropped without losing data. It mainly judges by testing the PG_dirty bit after taking the page lock. So it becomes important that the dirtying of page and the marking of dirtiness are both done inside the page lock. Which is a common practice, but sadly not a rule. The noticeable exceptions are - mapped pages - pages with buffer_heads The above pages could go dirty at any time. Fortunately the hwpoison will unmap the page and release the buffer_heads beforehand anyway. Many other types of pages (eg. metadata pages) can also be dirtied at will by their owners, the hwpoison code cannot do meaningful things to them anyway. Only the dirtiness of pagecache pages owned by regular files are interested. v2: AK: Add comment about set_page_dirty rules (suggested by Peter Zijlstra) Acked-by: Hugh Dickins <hugh.dickins@tiscali.co.uk> Reviewed-by: WANG Cong <xiyou.wangcong@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | CONFIG_SHMEM off gives you (ramfs masquerading as) tmpfs, even when CONFIG_TMPFS is off: that's a little anomalous, and I'd intended to make more sense of it by removing CONFIG_TMPFS altogether, always enabling its code when CONFIG_SHMEM; but so many defconfigs have CONFIG_SHMEM on CONFIG_TMPFS off that we'd better leave that as is. But there is no point in asking for CONFIG_TMPFS if CONFIG_SHMEM is off: make TMPFS depend on SHMEM, which also prevents TMPFS_POSIX_ACL shmem_acl.o being pointlessly built into the kernel when SHMEM is off. And a selfish change, to prevent the world from being rebuilt when I switch between CONFIG_SHMEM on and off: the only CONFIG_SHMEM in the header files is mm.h shmem_lock() - give that a shmem.c stub instead.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After commit 355cfa73 ("mm: modify swap_map and add SWAP_HAS_CACHE flag"), only the context which have set SWAP_HAS_CACHE flag by swapcache_prepare() or get_swap_page() would call add_to_swap_cache(). So add_to_swap_cache() doesn't return -EEXIST any more. Even though it doesn't return -EEXIST, it's not good behavior conceptually to call swapcache_prepare() in the -EEXIST case, because it means clearing SWAP_HAS_CACHE flag while the entry is on swap cache. This patch removes redundant codes and comments from callers of it, and adds VM_BUG_ON() in error path of add_to_swap_cache() and some comments.

* | Driver Core: devtmpfs - kernel-maintained tmpfs-based /devKay Sievers2009-09-151-6/+3
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Devtmpfs lets the kernel create a tmpfs instance called devtmpfs very early at kernel initialization, before any driver-core device is registered. Every device with a major/minor will provide a device node in devtmpfs. Devtmpfs can be changed and altered by userspace at any time, and in any way needed - just like today's udev-mounted tmpfs. Unmodified udev versions will run just fine on top of it, and will recognize an already existing kernel-created device node and use it. The default node permissions are root:root 0600. Proper permissions and user/group ownership, meaningful symlinks, all other policy still needs to be applied by userspace. If a node is created by devtmps, devtmpfs will remove the device node when the device goes away. If the device node was created by userspace, or the devtmpfs created node was replaced by userspace, it will no longer be removed by devtmpfs. If it is requested to auto-mount it, it makes init=/bin/sh work without any further userspace support. /dev will be fully populated and dynamic, and always reflect the current device state of the kernel. With the commonly used dynamic device numbers, it solves the problem where static devices nodes may point to the wrong devices. It is intended to make the initial bootup logic simpler and more robust, by de-coupling the creation of the inital environment, to reliably run userspace processes, from a complex userspace bootstrap logic to provide a working /dev.

* memcg: fix mem_cgroup_shrink_usage()Daisuke Nishimura2009-05-031-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current mem_cgroup_shrink_usage() has two problems. 1. It doesn't call mem_cgroup_out_of_memory and doesn't update last_oom_jiffies, so pagefault_out_of_memory invokes global OOM. 2. Considering hierarchy, shrinking has to be done from the mem_over_limit, not from the memcg which the page would be charged to. mem_cgroup_try_charge_swapin() does all of these things properly, so we use it and call cancel_charge_swapin when it succeeded. The name of "shrink_usage" is not appropriate for this behavior, so we change it too.

* shmem: respect MAX_LFS_FILESIZEHugh Dickins2009-04-141-5/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SHMEM_MAX_BYTES was derived from the maximum size of its triple-indirect swap vector, forgetting to take the MAX_LFS_FILESIZE limit into account. Never mind 256kB pages, even 8kB pages on 32-bit kernels allowed files to grow slightly bigger than that supposed maximum. Fix this by using the min of both (at build time not run time). And it happens that this calculation is good as far as 8MB pages on 32-bit or 16MB pages on 64-bit: though SHMSWP_MAX_INDEX gets truncated before that, it's truncated to such large numbers that we don't need to care.

* shmem: fix division by zeroYuri Tikhonov2009-04-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix a division by zero which we have in shmem_truncate_range() and shmem_unuse_inode() when using big PAGE_SIZE values (e.g. 256kB on ppc44x). With 256kB PAGE_SIZE, the ENTRIES_PER_PAGEPAGE constant becomes too large (0x1.0000.0000) on a 32-bit kernel, so this patch just changes its type from 'unsigned long' to 'unsigned long long'. Hugh: reverted its unsigned long longs in shmem_truncate_range() and shmem_getpage(): the pagecache index cannot be more than an unsigned long, so the divisions by zero occurred in unreached code. It's a pity we need any ULL arithmetic here, but I found no pretty way to avoid it.

* shmem: writepage directly to swapHugh Dickins2009-04-011-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Synopsis: if shmem_writepage calls swap_writepage directly, most shmem swap loads benefit, and a catastrophic interaction between SLUB and some flash storage is avoided. shmem_writepage() has always been peculiar in making no attempt to write: it has just transferred a shmem page from file cache to swap cache, then let that page make its way around the LRU again before being written and freed. The idea was that people use tmpfs because they want those pages to stay in RAM; so although we give it an overflow to swap, we should resist writing too soon, giving those pages a second chance before they can be reclaimed. That was always questionable, and I've toyed with this patch for years; but never had a clear justification to depart from the original design. It became more questionable in 2.6.28, when the split LRU patches classed shmem and tmpfs pages as SwapBacked rather than as file_cache: that in itself gives them more resistance to reclaim than normal file pages. I prepared this patch for 2.6.29, but the merge window arrived before I'd completed gathering statistics to justify sending it in. Then while comparing SLQB against SLUB, running SLUB on a laptop I'd habitually used with SLAB, I found SLUB to run my tmpfs kbuild swapping tests five times slower than SLAB or SLQB - other machines slower too, but nowhere near so bad. Simpler "cp -a" swapping tests showed the same. slub_max_order=0 brings sanity to all, but heavy swapping is too far from normal to justify such a tuning. The crucial factor on that laptop turns out to be that I'm using an SD card for swap. What happens is this: By default, SLUB uses order-2 pages for shmem_inode_cache (and many other fs inodes), so creating tmpfs files under memory pressure brings lumpy reclaim into play. One subpage of the order is chosen from the bottom of the LRU as usual, then the other three picked out from their random positions on the LRUs. In a tmpfs load, many of these pages will be ones which already passed through shmem_writepage, so already have swap allocated. And though their offsets on swap were probably allocated sequentially, now that the pages are picked off at random, their swap offsets are scattered. But the flash storage on the SD card is very sensitive to having its writes merged: once swap is written at scattered offsets, performance falls apart. Rotating disk seeks increase too, but less disastrously. So: stop giving shmem/tmpfs pages a second pass around the LRU, write them out to swap as soon as their swap has been allocated. It's surely possible to devise an artificial load which runs faster the old way, one whose sizing is such that the tmpfs pages on their second pass are the ones that are wanted again, and other pages not. But I've not yet found such a load: on all machines, under the loads I've tried, immediate swap_writepage speeds up shmem swapping: especially when using the SLUB allocator (and more effectively than slub_max_order=0), but also with the others; and it also reduces the variance between runs. How much faster varies widely: a factor of five is rare, 5% is common. One load which might have suffered: imagine a swapping shmem load in a limited mem_cgroup on a machine with plenty of memory. Before 2.6.29 the swapcache was not charged, and such a load would have run quickest with the shmem swapcache never written to swap. But now swapcache is charged, so even this load benefits from shmem_writepage directly to swap. Apologies for the #ifndef CONFIG_SWAP swap_writepage() stub in swap.h: it's silly because that will never get called; but refactoring shmem.c sensibly according to CONFIG_SWAP will be a separate task.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Each time I exit Firefox, /proc/meminfo's Committed_AS goes down almost 400 kB: OVERCOMMIT_NEVER would be allowing overcommits it should prohibit. Commit fc8744adc870a8d4366908221508bb113d8b72ee "Stop playing silly games with the VM_ACCOUNT flag" changed shmem_file_setup() to set the shmem file's VM_ACCOUNT flag according to VM_NORESERVE not being set in the vma flags; but did so only _after_ the shmem_acct_size(flags, size) call which is expected to pre-account a shared anonymous object. It's all clearer if we switch shmem.c over to use VM_NORESERVE throughout in place of !VM_ACCOUNT. But I very nearly sent in a patch which mistakenly removed the accounting from tmpfs files: shmem_get_inode()'s memset was good for not setting VM_ACCOUNT, but now it needs to set VM_NORESERVE. Rather than setting that by default, then perhaps clearing it again in shmem_file_setup(), let's pass it as a flag to shmem_get_inode(): that allows us to remove the #ifdef CONFIG_SHMEM from shmem_file_setup().

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The mmap_region() code would temporarily set the VM_ACCOUNT flag for anonymous shared mappings just to inform shmem_zero_setup() that it should enable accounting for the resulting shm object. It would then clear the flag after calling ->mmap (for the /dev/zero case) or doing shmem_zero_setup() (for the MAP_ANON case). This just resulted in vma merge issues, but also made for just unnecessary confusion. Use the already-existing VM_NORESERVE flag for this instead, and let shmem_{zero|file}_setup() just figure it out from that. This also happens to make it obvious that the new DRI2 GEM layer uses a non-reserving backing store for its object allocation - which is quite possibly not intentional. But since I didn't want to change semantics in this patch, I left it alone, and just updated the caller to use the new flag semantics. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

SwapCache accounting is done as following. charge (anon) - charged when it's mapped. (because of readahead, charge at add_to_swap_cache() is not sane) uncharge (anon) - uncharged when it's dropped from swapcache and fully unmapped. means it's not uncharged at unmap. Note: delete from swap cache at swap-in is done after rmap information is established. charge (shmem) - charged at swap-in. this prevents charge at add_to_page_cache(). uncharge (shmem) - uncharged when it's dropped from swapcache and not on shmem's radix-tree. at migration, check against 'old page' is modified to handle shmem. Comparing to the old version discussed (and caused troubles), we have advantages of - PCG_USED bit. - simple migrating handling. So, situation is much easier than several months ago, maybe.
