* mm, sl[aou]b: guarantee natural alignment for kmalloc(power-of-two)Vlastimil Babka2019-10-081-11/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In most configurations, kmalloc() happens to return naturally aligned (i.e. aligned to the block size itself) blocks for power of two sizes. That means some kmalloc() users might unknowingly rely on that alignment, until stuff breaks when the kernel is built with e.g. CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG or CONFIG_SLOB, and blocks stop being aligned. Then developers have to devise workaround such as own kmem caches with specified alignment [1], which is not always practical, as recently evidenced in [2]. The topic has been discussed at LSF/MM 2019 [3]. Adding a 'kmalloc_aligned()' variant would not help with code unknowingly relying on the implicit alignment. For slab implementations it would either require creating more kmalloc caches, or allocate a larger size and only give back part of it. That would be wasteful, especially with a generic alignment parameter (in contrast with a fixed alignment to size). Ideally we should provide to mm users what they need without difficult workarounds or own reimplementations, so let's make the kmalloc() alignment to size explicitly guaranteed for power-of-two sizes under all configurations. What this means for the three available allocators? * SLAB object layout happens to be mostly unchanged by the patch. The implicitly provided alignment could be compromised with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB due to redzoning, however SLAB disables redzoning for caches with alignment larger than unsigned long long. Practically on at least x86 this includes kmalloc caches as they use cache line alignment, which is larger than that. Still, this patch ensures alignment on all arches and cache sizes. * SLUB layout is also unchanged unless redzoning is enabled through CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG and boot parameter for the particular kmalloc cache. With this patch, explicit alignment is guaranteed with redzoning as well. This will result in more memory being wasted, but that should be acceptable in a debugging scenario. * SLOB has no implicit alignment so this patch adds it explicitly for kmalloc(). The potential downside is increased fragmentation. While pathological allocation scenarios are certainly possible, in my testing, after booting a x86_64 kernel+userspace with virtme, around 16MB memory was consumed by slab pages both before and after the patch, with difference in the noise.

* mm, sl[ou]b: improve memory accountingVlastimil Babka2019-10-081-4/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch series "guarantee natural alignment for kmalloc()", v2. This patch (of 2): SLOB currently doesn't account its pages at all, so in /proc/meminfo the Slab field shows zero. Modifying a counter on page allocation and freeing should be acceptable even for the small system scenarios SLOB is intended for. Since reclaimable caches are not separated in SLOB, account everything as unreclaimable. SLUB currently doesn't account kmalloc() and kmalloc_node() allocations larger than order-1 page, that are passed directly to the page allocator. As they also don't appear in /proc/slabinfo, it might look like a memory leak. For consistency, account them as well. (SLAB doesn't actually use page allocator directly, so no change there). Ideally SLOB and SLUB would be handled in separate patches, but due to the shared kmalloc_order() function and different kfree() implementations, it's easier to patch both at once to prevent inconsistencies.

* slob: use slab_list instead of lruTobin C. Harding2019-05-141-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we use the page->lru list for maintaining lists of slabs. We have a list_head in the page structure (slab_list) that can be used for this purpose. Doing so makes the code cleaner since we are not overloading the lru list. The slab_list is part of a union within the page struct (included here stripped down): union { struct { /* Page cache and anonymous pages */ struct list_head lru; ... }; struct { dma_addr_t dma_addr; }; struct { /* slab, slob and slub */ union { struct list_head slab_list; struct { /* Partial pages */ struct page *next; int pages; /* Nr of pages left */ int pobjects; /* Approximate count */ }; }; ... Here we see that slab_list and lru are the same bits. We can verify that this change is safe to do by examining the object file produced from slob.c before and after this patch is applied. Steps taken to verify: 1. checkout current tip of Linus' tree commit a667cb7a94d4 ("Merge branch 'akpm' (patches from Andrew)") 2. configure and build (select SLOB allocator) CONFIG_SLOB=y CONFIG_SLAB_MERGE_DEFAULT=y 3. dissasemble object file `objdump -dr mm/slub.o > before.s 4. apply patch 5. build 6. dissasemble object file `objdump -dr mm/slub.o > after.s 7. diff before.s after.s Use slab_list list_head instead of the lru list_head for maintaining lists of slabs.

* slob: respect list_head abstraction layerTobin C. Harding2019-05-141-14/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we reach inside the list_head. This is a violation of the layer of abstraction provided by the list_head. It makes the code fragile. More importantly it makes the code wicked hard to understand. The code reaches into the list_head structure to counteract the fact that the list _may_ have been changed during slob_page_alloc(). Instead of this we can add a return parameter to slob_page_alloc() to signal that the list was modified (list_del() called with page->lru to remove page from the freelist). This code is concerned with an optimisation that counters the tendency for first fit allocation algorithm to fragment memory into many small chunks at the front of the memory pool. Since the page is only removed from the list when an allocation uses _all_ the remaining memory in the page then in this special case fragmentation does not occur and we therefore do not need the optimisation. Add a return parameter to slob_page_alloc() to signal that the allocation used up the whole page and that the page was removed from the free list. After calling slob_page_alloc() check the return value just added and only attempt optimisation if the page is still on the list. Use list_head API instead of reaching into the list_head structure to check if sp is at the front of the list.

* License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman2017-11-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A while ago someone, and I cannot find the email just now, asked if we could not implement the RECLAIM_FS inversion stuff with a 'fake' lock like we use for other things like workqueues etc. I think this should be possible which allows reducing the 'irq' states and will reduce the amount of __bfs() lookups we do. Removing the 1 IRQ state results in 4 less __bfs() walks per dependency, improving lockdep performance. And by moving this annotation out of the lockdep code it becomes easier for the mm people to extend.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A group of Linux kernel hackers reported chasing a bug that resulted from their assumption that SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU provided an existence guarantee, that is, that no block from such a slab would be reallocated during an RCU read-side critical section. Of course, that is not the case. Instead, SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU only prevents freeing of an entire slab of blocks. However, there is a phrase for this, namely "type safety". This commit therefore renames SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU to SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU in order to avoid future instances of this sort of confusion. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | synchronize_sched() is a heavy operation and calling it per each cache owned by a memory cgroup being destroyed may take quite some time. What is worse, it's currently called under the slab_mutex, stalling all works doing cache creation/destruction. Actually, there isn't much point in calling synchronize_sched() for each cache - it's enough to call it just once - after setting cpu_partial for all caches and before shrinking them. This way, we can also move it out of the slab_mutex, which we have to hold for iterating over the slab cache list.

* slab/slub: adjust kmem_cache_alloc_bulk APIJesper Dangaard Brouer2015-11-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adjust kmem_cache_alloc_bulk API before we have any real users. Adjust API to return type 'int' instead of previously type 'bool'. This is done to allow future extension of the bulk alloc API. A future extension could be to allow SLUB to stop at a page boundary, when specified by a flag, and then return the number of objects. The advantage of this approach, would make it easier to make bulk alloc run without local IRQs disabled. With an approach of cmpxchg "stealing" the entire c->freelist or page->freelist. To avoid overshooting we would stop processing at a slab-page boundary. Else we always end up returning some objects at the cost of another cmpxchg. To keep compatible with future users of this API linking against an older kernel when using the new flag, we need to return the number of allocated objects with this API change.

* mm: rename alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node()Vlastimil Babka2015-09-091-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | alloc_pages_exact_node() was introduced in commit 6484eb3e2a81 ("page allocator: do not check NUMA node ID when the caller knows the node is valid") as an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node(), that doesn't fallback to current node for nid == NUMA_NO_NODE. Unfortunately the name of the function can easily suggest that the allocation is restricted to the given node and fails otherwise. In truth, the node is only preferred, unless __GFP_THISNODE is passed among the gfp flags. The misleading name has lead to mistakes in the past, see for example commits 5265047ac301 ("mm, thp: really limit transparent hugepage allocation to local node") and b360edb43f8e ("mm, mempolicy: migrate_to_node should only migrate to node"). Another issue with the name is that there's a family of alloc_pages_exact*() functions where 'exact' means exact size (instead of page order), which leads to more confusion. To prevent further mistakes, this patch effectively renames alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node() to better convey that it's an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node() not intended for general usage. Both functions get described in comments. It has been also considered to really provide a convenience function for allocations restricted to a node, but the major opinion seems to be that __GFP_THISNODE already provides that functionality and we shouldn't duplicate the API needlessly. The number of users would be small anyway. Existing callers of alloc_pages_exact_node() are simply converted to call __alloc_pages_node(), with the exception of sba_alloc_coherent() which open-codes the check for NUMA_NO_NODE, so it is converted to use alloc_pages_node() instead. This means it no longer performs some VM_BUG_ON checks, and since the current check for nid in alloc_pages_node() uses a 'nid < 0' comparison (which includes NUMA_NO_NODE), it may hide wrong values which would be previously exposed. Both differences will be rectified by the next patch. To sum up, this patch makes no functional changes, except temporarily hiding potentially buggy callers. Restricting the checks in alloc_pages_node() is left for the next patch which can in turn expose more existing buggy callers.

* slab: infrastructure for bulk object allocation and freeingChristoph Lameter2015-09-051-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the basic infrastructure for alloc/free operations on pointer arrays. It includes a generic function in the common slab code that is used in this infrastructure patch to create the unoptimized functionality for slab bulk operations. Allocators can then provide optimized allocation functions for situations in which large numbers of objects are needed. These optimization may avoid taking locks repeatedly and bypass metadata creation if all objects in slab pages can be used to provide the objects required. Allocators can extend the skeletons provided and add their own code to the bulk alloc and free functions. They can keep the generic allocation and freeing and just fall back to those if optimizations would not work (like for example when debugging is on).

* slub: make dead caches discard free slabs immediatelyVladimir Davydov2015-02-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To speed up further allocations SLUB may store empty slabs in per cpu/node partial lists instead of freeing them immediately. This prevents per memcg caches destruction, because kmem caches created for a memory cgroup are only destroyed after the last page charged to the cgroup is freed. To fix this issue, this patch resurrects approach first proposed in [1]. It forbids SLUB to cache empty slabs after the memory cgroup that the cache belongs to was destroyed. It is achieved by setting kmem_cache's cpu_partial and min_partial constants to 0 and tuning put_cpu_partial() so that it would drop frozen empty slabs immediately if cpu_partial = 0. The runtime overhead is minimal. From all the hot functions, we only touch relatively cold put_cpu_partial(): we make it call unfreeze_partials() after freezing a slab that belongs to an offline memory cgroup. Since slab freezing exists to avoid moving slabs from/to a partial list on free/alloc, and there can't be allocations from dead caches, it shouldn't cause any overhead. We do have to disable preemption for put_cpu_partial() to achieve that though. The original patch was accepted well and even merged to the mm tree. However, I decided to withdraw it due to changes happening to the memcg core at that time. I had an idea of introducing per-memcg shrinkers for kmem caches, but now, as memcg has finally settled down, I do not see it as an option, because SLUB shrinker would be too costly to call since SLUB does not keep free slabs on a separate list. Besides, we currently do not even call per-memcg shrinkers for offline memcgs. Overall, it would introduce much more complexity to both SLUB and memcg than this small patch. Regarding to SLAB, there's no problem with it, because it shrinks per-cpu/node caches periodically. Thanks to list_lru reparenting, we no longer keep entries for offline cgroups in per-memcg arrays (such as memcg_cache_params->memcg_caches), so we do not have to bother if a per-memcg cache will be shrunk a bit later than it could be.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now, we track caller if tracing or slab debugging is enabled. If they are disabled, we could save one argument passing overhead by calling __kmalloc(_node)(). But, I think that it would be marginal. Furthermore, default slab allocator, SLUB, doesn't use this technique so I think that it's okay to change this situation. After this change, we can turn on/off CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB without full kernel build and remove some complicated '#if' defintion. It looks more benefitial to me.

* slab: get_online_mems for kmem_cache_{create,destroy,shrink}Vladimir Davydov2014-06-051-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we create a sl[au]b cache, we allocate kmem_cache_node structures for each online NUMA node. To handle nodes taken online/offline, we register memory hotplug notifier and allocate/free kmem_cache_node corresponding to the node that changes its state for each kmem cache. To synchronize between the two paths we hold the slab_mutex during both the cache creationg/destruction path and while tuning per-node parts of kmem caches in memory hotplug handler, but that's not quite right, because it does not guarantee that a newly created cache will have all kmem_cache_nodes initialized in case it races with memory hotplug. For instance, in case of slub: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- kmem_cache_create: online_pages: __kmem_cache_create: slab_memory_callback: slab_mem_going_online_callback: lock slab_mutex for each slab_caches list entry allocate kmem_cache node unlock slab_mutex lock slab_mutex init_kmem_cache_nodes: for_each_node_state(node, N_NORMAL_MEMORY) allocate kmem_cache node add kmem_cache to slab_caches list unlock slab_mutex online_pages (continued): node_states_set_node As a result we'll get a kmem cache with not all kmem_cache_nodes allocated. To avoid issues like that we should hold get/put_online_mems() during the whole kmem cache creation/destruction/shrink paths, just like we deal with cpu hotplug. This patch does the trick. Note, that after it's applied, there is no need in taking the slab_mutex for kmem_cache_shrink any more, so it is removed from there.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 'struct page' has two list_head fields: 'lru' and 'list'. Conveniently, they are unioned together. This means that code can use them interchangably, which gets horribly confusing like with this nugget from slab.c: > list_del(&page->lru); > if (page->active == cachep->num) > list_add(&page->list, &n->slabs_full); This patch makes the slab and slub code use page->lru universally instead of mixing ->list and ->lru.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | What is done there can be done in __kmem_cache_shutdown. This affects RCU handling somewhat. On rcu free all slab allocators do not refer to other management structures than the kmem_cache structure. Therefore these other structures can be freed before the rcu deferred free to the page allocator occurs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Kmem_cache_create() does a variety of sanity checks but those vary depending on the allocator. Use the strictest tests and put them into a slab_common file. Make the tests conditional on CONFIG_DEBUG_VM. This patch has the effect of adding sanity checks for SLUB and SLOB under CONFIG_DEBUG_VM and removes the checks in SLAB for !CONFIG_DEBUG_VM.
