The proper pattern, from Documentation/memory-barriers.txt, is: --- waker --- event_indicated = 1; wake_up_process(event_daemon); --- sleeper --- for (;;) { set_current_state(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE); if (event_indicated) break; schedule(); } set_current_state() may be wrapped by: prepare_to_wait(); In the kswapd() case, event_indicated is kthread->should_stop. === offlining memory (waker) === kswapd_stop() kthread_stop() kthread->should_stop = 1 wake_up_process() wait_for_completion() === kswapd_try_to_sleep (sleeper) === kswapd_try_to_sleep() prepare_to_wait() . . schedule() . . finish_wait() The schedule() needs to be protected by a test of kthread->should_stop, which is wrapped by kthread_should_stop().

| * bootmem: make ___alloc_bootmem_node_nopanic() really nopanicYinghai Lu2012-07-181-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In reaction to commit 99ab7b19440a ("mm: sparse: fix usemap allocation above node descriptor section") Johannes said: | while backporting the below patch, I realised that your fix busted | f5bf18fa22f8 again. The problem was not a panicking version on | allocation failure but when the usemap size was too large such that | goal + size > limit triggers the BUG_ON in the bootmem allocator. So | we need a version that passes limit ONLY if the usemap is smaller than | the section. after checking the code, the name of ___alloc_bootmem_node_nopanic() does not reflect the fact. Make bootmem really not panic. Hope will kill bootmem sooner.

* | mm: sparse: fix usemap allocation above node descriptor sectionYinghai Lu2012-07-123-7/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After commit f5bf18fa22f8 ("bootmem/sparsemem: remove limit constraint in alloc_bootmem_section"), usemap allocations may easily be placed outside the optimal section that holds the node descriptor, even if there is space available in that section. This results in unnecessary hotplug dependencies that need to have the node unplugged before the section holding the usemap. The reason is that the bootmem allocator doesn't guarantee a linear search starting from the passed allocation goal but may start out at a much higher address absent an upper limit. Fix this by trying the allocation with the limit at the section end, then retry without if that fails. This keeps the fix from f5bf18fa22f8 of not panicking if the allocation does not fit in the section, but still makes sure to try to stay within the section at first.

* | mm: sparse: fix section usemap placement calculationYinghai Lu2012-07-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 238305bb4d41 ("mm: remove sparsemem allocation details from the bootmem allocator") introduced a bug in the allocation goal calculation that put section usemaps not in the same section as the node descriptors, creating unnecessary hotplug dependencies between them: node 0 must be removed before remove section 16399 node 1 must be removed before remove section 16399 node 2 must be removed before remove section 16399 node 3 must be removed before remove section 16399 node 4 must be removed before remove section 16399 node 5 must be removed before remove section 16399 node 6 must be removed before remove section 16399 The reason is that it applies PAGE_SECTION_MASK to the physical address of the node descriptor when finding a suitable place to put the usemap, when this mask is actually intended to be used with PFNs. Because the PFN mask is wider, the target address will point beyond the wanted section holding the node descriptor and the node must be offlined before the section holding the usemap can go. Fix this by extending the mask to address width before use.

* | shmem: cleanup shmem_add_to_page_cacheHugh Dickins2012-07-121-30/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | shmem_add_to_page_cache() has three callsites, but only one of them wants the radix_tree_preload() (an exceptional entry guarantees that the radix tree node is present in the other cases), and only that site can achieve mem_cgroup_uncharge_cache_page() (PageSwapCache makes it a no-op in the other cases). We did it this way originally to reflect add_to_page_cache_locked(); but it's confusing now, so move the radix_tree preloading and mem_cgroup uncharging to that one caller.

* | shmem: fix negative rss in memcg memory.statHugh Dickins2012-07-121-12/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When adding the page_private checks before calling shmem_replace_page(), I did realize that there is a further race, but thought it too unlikely to need a hurried fix. But independently I've been chasing why a mem cgroup's memory.stat sometimes shows negative rss after all tasks have gone: I expected it to be a stats gathering bug, but actually it's shmem swapping's fault. It's an old surprise, that when you lock_page(lookup_swap_cache(swap)), the page may have been removed from swapcache before getting the lock; or it may have been freed and reused and be back in swapcache; and it can even be using the same swap location as before (page_private same). The swapoff case is already secure against this (swap cannot be reused until the whole area has been swapped off, and a new swapped on); and shmem_getpage_gfp() is protected by shmem_add_to_page_cache()'s check for the expected radix_tree entry - but a little too late. By that time, we might have already decided to shmem_replace_page(): I don't know of a problem from that, but I'd feel more at ease not to do so spuriously. And we have already done mem_cgroup_cache_charge(), on perhaps the wrong mem cgroup: and this charge is not then undone on the error path, because PageSwapCache ends up preventing that. It's this last case which causes the occasional negative rss in memory.stat: the page is charged here as cache, but (sometimes) found to be anon when eventually it's uncharged - and in between, it's an undeserved charge on the wrong memcg. Fix this by adding an earlier check on the radix_tree entry: it's inelegant to descend the tree twice, but swapping is not the fast path, and a better solution would need a pair (try+commit) of memcg calls, and a rework of shmem_replace_page() to keep out of the swapcache. We can use the added shmem_confirm_swap() function to replace the find_get_page+page_cache_release we were already doing on the error path. And add a comment on that -EEXIST: it seems a peculiar errno to be using, but originates from its use in radix_tree_insert(). [It can be surprising to see positive rss left in a memcg's memory.stat after all tasks have gone, since it is supposed to count anonymous but not shmem. Aside from sharing anon pages via fork with a task in some other memcg, it often happens after swapping: because a swap page can't be freed while under writeback, nor while locked. So it's not an error, and these residual pages are easily freed once pressure demands.] Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* | tmpfs: revert SEEK_DATA and SEEK_HOLEHugh Dickins2012-07-121-93/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Revert 4fb5ef089b28 ("tmpfs: support SEEK_DATA and SEEK_HOLE"). I believe it's correct, and it's been nice to have from rc1 to rc6; but as the original commit said: I don't know who actually uses SEEK_DATA or SEEK_HOLE, and whether it would be of any use to them on tmpfs. This code adds 92 lines and 752 bytes on x86_64 - is that bloat or worthwhile? Nobody asked for it, so I conclude that it's bloat: let's revert tmpfs to the dumb generic support for v3.5. We can always reinstate it later if useful, and anyone needing it in a hurry can just get it out of git.

* | mm, thp: abort compaction if migration page cannot be charged to memcgDavid Rientjes2012-07-121-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If page migration cannot charge the temporary page to the memcg, migrate_pages() will return -ENOMEM. This isn't considered in memory compaction however, and the loop continues to iterate over all pageblocks trying to isolate and migrate pages. If a small number of very large memcgs happen to be oom, however, these attempts will mostly be futile leading to an enormous amout of cpu consumption due to the page migration failures. This patch will short circuit and fail memory compaction if migrate_pages() returns -ENOMEM. COMPACT_PARTIAL is returned in case some migrations were successful so that the page allocator will retry.

But kswapd_stop() only terminates the work thread without resetting NODE_DATA(nid)->kswapd to NULL. The stale pointer will prevent kswapd_run() from creating a new work thread when adding memory to the memory-less NUMA node again. Eventually the stale pointer may cause invalid memory access.

Problem is some paths don't hold pipe mutex and assume pipe->buffers doesn't change for their duration. Fix this by adding nr_pages_max field in struct splice_pipe_desc, and use it in place of pipe->buffers where appropriate. splice_shrink_spd() loses its struct pipe_inode_info argument.

* | mm/memblock: fix overlapping allocation when doubling reserved arrayGreg Pearson2012-06-201-4/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | __alloc_memory_core_early() asks memblock for a range of memory then try to reserve it. If the reserved region array lacks space for the new range, memblock_double_array() is called to allocate more space for the array. If memblock is used to allocate memory for the new array it can end up using a range that overlaps with the range originally allocated in __alloc_memory_core_early(), leading to possible data corruption. With this patch memblock_double_array() now calls memblock_find_in_range() with a narrowed candidate range (in cases where the reserved.regions array is being doubled) so any memory allocated will not overlap with the original range that was being reserved. The range is narrowed by passing in the starting address and size of the previously allocated range. Then the range above the ending address is searched and if a candidate is not found, the range below the starting address is searched.

* | swap: fix shmem swapping when more than 8 areasHugh Dickins2012-06-161-8/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Minchan Kim reports that when a system has many swap areas, and tmpfs swaps out to the ninth or more, shmem_getpage_gfp()'s attempts to read back the page cannot locate it, and the read fails with -ENOMEM. Whoops. Yes, I blindly followed read_swap_header()'s pte_to_swp_entry( swp_entry_to_pte()) technique for determining maximum usable swap offset, without stopping to realize that that actually depends upon the pte swap encoding shifting swap offset to the higher bits and truncating it there. Whereas our radix_tree swap encoding leaves offset in the lower bits: it's swap "type" (that is, index of swap area) that was truncated. Fix it by reducing the SWP_TYPE_SHIFT() in swapops.h, and removing the broken radix_to_swp_entry(swp_to_radix_entry()) from read_swap_header(). This does not reduce the usable size of a swap area any further, it leaves it as claimed when making the original commit: no change from 3.0 on x86_64, nor on i386 without PAE; but 3.0's 512GB is reduced to 128GB per swapfile on i386 with PAE. It's not a change I would have risked five years ago, but with x86_64 supported for ten years, I believe it's appropriate now. Hmm, and what if some architecture implements its swap pte with offset encoded below type? That would equally break the maximum usable swap offset check. Happily, they all follow the same tradition of encoding offset above type, but I'll prepare a check on that for next.

Frontswap_map points to vzalloc'ed one-bit-per-swap-page metadata that indicates whether the swap page is in frontswap or in the device and frontswap_pages counts how many pages are in frontswap. (3) adds hooks in the swap subsystem and extends try_to_unuse so that frontswap_shrink can do a "partial swapoff". Note that a failed frontswap_map allocation is safe... failure is noted by lack of "FS" in the subsequent printk. --- [v14: rebase to 3.4-rc2] [v10: no change] [v9: akpm@linux-foundation.org: mark some statics __read_mostly] [v9: akpm@linux-foundation.org: add clarifying comments] [v9: akpm@linux-foundation.org: no need to loop repeating try_to_unuse] [v9: error27@gmail.com: remove superfluous check for NULL] [v8: rebase to 3.0-rc4] [v8: kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com: change counter to atomic_t to avoid races] [v8: kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com: comment to clarify informational counters] [v7: rebase to 3.0-rc3] [v7: JBeulich@novell.com: add new swap struct elements only if config'd] [v6: rebase to 3.0-rc1] [v6: lliubbo@gmail.com: fix null pointer deref if vzalloc fails] [v6: konrad.wilk@oracl.com: various checks and code clarifications/comments] [v5: no change from v4] [v4: rebase to 2.6.39] Signed-off-by: Dan Magenheimer <dan.magenheimer@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Kamezawa Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: Jan Beulich <JBeulich@novell.com> Acked-by: Seth Jennings <sjenning@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx> Cc: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com> Cc: Rik Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> [v11: Rebased, fixed mm/swapfile.c context change] Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>
* | Revert "mm: compaction: handle incorrect MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE type pageblocks"Linus Torvalds2012-06-043-131/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 5ceb9ce6fe9462a298bb2cd5c9f1ca6cb80a0199. That commit seems to be the cause of the mm compation list corruption issues that Dave Jones reported. The locking (or rather, absense there-of) is dubious, as is the use of the 'page' variable once it has been found to be outside the pageblock range. So revert it for now, we can re-visit this for 3.6. If we even need to: as Minchan Kim says, "The patch wasn't a bug fix and even test workload was very theoretical".

* | mm: fix warning in __set_page_dirty_nobuffersHugh Dickins2012-06-041-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | New tmpfs use of !PageUptodate pages for fallocate() is triggering the WARNING: at mm/page-writeback.c:1990 when __set_page_dirty_nobuffers() is called from migrate_page_copy() for compaction. It is anomalous that migration should use __set_page_dirty_nobuffers() on an address_space that does not participate in dirty and writeback accounting; and this has also been observed to insert surprising dirty tags into a tmpfs radix_tree, despite tmpfs not using tags at all. We should probably give migrate_page_copy() a better way to preserve the tag and migrate accounting info, when mapping_cap_account_dirty(). But that needs some more work: so in the interim, avoid the warning by using a simple SetPageDirty on PageSwapBacked pages.

| * | fs: introduce inode operation ->update_timeJosef Bacik2012-06-012-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Btrfs has to make sure we have space to allocate new blocks in order to modify the inode, so updating time can fail. We've gotten around this by having our own file_update_time but this is kind of a pain, and Christoph has indicated he would like to make xfs do something different with atime updates. So introduce ->update_time, where we will deal with i_version an a/m/c time updates and indicate which changes need to be made. The normal version just does what it has always done, updates the time and marks the inode dirty, and then filesystems can choose to do something different. I've gone through all of the users of file_update_time and made them check for errors with the exception of the fault code since it's complicated and I wasn't quite sure what to do there, also Jan is going to be pushing the file time updates into page_mkwrite for those who have it so that should satisfy btrfs and make it not a big deal to check the file_update_time() return code in the generic fault path.
