mm, oom: remove 'prefer children over parent' heuristic
Since the start of the git history of Linux, the kernel after selecting
the worst process to be oom-killed, prefer to kill its child (if the
child does not share mm with the parent). Later it was changed to
prefer to kill a child who is worst. If the parent is still the worst
then the parent will be killed.
This heuristic assumes that the children did less work than their parent
and by killing one of them, the work lost will be less. However this is
very workload dependent. If there is a workload which can benefit from
this heuristic, can use oom_score_adj to prefer children to be killed
before the parent.
The select_bad_process() has already selected the worst process in the
system/memcg. There is no need to recheck the badness of its children
and hoping to find a worse candidate. That's a lot of unneeded racy
work. Also the heuristic is dangerous because it make fork bomb like
workloads to recover much later because we constantly pick and kill
processes which are not memory hogs. So, let's remove this whole
heuristic.

fs: kernfs: add poll file operation
Patch series "psi: pressure stall monitors", v3.
Android is adopting psi to detect and remedy memory pressure that
results in stuttering and decreased responsiveness on mobile devices.
Psi gives us the stall information, but because we're dealing with
latencies in the millisecond range, periodically reading the pressure
files to detect stalls in a timely fashion is not feasible. Psi also
doesn't aggregate its averages at a high enough frequency right now.
This patch series extends the psi interface such that users can
configure sensitive latency thresholds and use poll() and friends to be
notified when these are breached.
As high-frequency aggregation is costly, it implements an aggregation
method that is optimized for fast, short-interval averaging, and makes
the aggregation frequency adaptive, such that high-frequency updates
only happen while monitored stall events are actively occurring.
With these patches applied, Android can monitor for, and ward off,
mounting memory shortages before they cause problems for the user. For
example, using memory stall monitors in userspace low memory killer
daemon (lmkd) we can detect mounting pressure and kill less important
processes before device becomes visibly sluggish.
In our memory stress testing psi memory monitors produce roughly 10x
less false positives compared to vmpressure signals. Having ability to
specify multiple triggers for the same psi metric allows other parts of
Android framework to monitor memory state of the device and act
accordingly.
The new interface is straightforward. The user opens one of the
pressure files for writing and writes a trigger description into the
file descriptor that defines the stall state - some or full, and the
maximum stall time over a given window of time. E.g.:
/* Signal when stall time exceeds 100ms of a 1s window */
char trigger[] = "full 100000
1000000";
fd = open("/proc/pressure/memory");
write(fd, trigger, sizeof(trigger));
while (poll() >= 0) {
...
}
close(fd);
When the monitored stall state is entered, psi adapts its aggregation
frequency according to what the configured time window requires in order
to emit event signals in a timely fashion. Once the stalling subsides,
aggregation reverts back to normal.
The trigger is associated with the open file descriptor. To stop
monitoring, the user only needs to close the file descriptor and the
trigger is discarded.
Patches 1-4 prepare the psi code for polling support. Patch 5
implements the adaptive polling logic, the pressure growth detection
optimized for short intervals, and hooks up write() and poll() on the
pressure files.
The patches were developed in collaboration with Johannes Weiner.
This patch (of 5):
Kernfs has a standardized poll/notification mechanism for waking all
pollers on all fds when a filesystem node changes. To allow polling for
custom events, add a .poll callback that can override the default.
This is in preparation for pollable cgroup pressure files which have
per-fd trigger configurations.

mm, compaction: be selective about what pageblocks to clear skip hints
Pageblock hints are cleared when compaction restarts or kswapd makes
enough progress that it can sleep but it's over-eager in that the bit is
cleared for migration sources with no LRU pages and migration targets
with no free pages. As pageblock skip hint flushes are relatively rare
and out-of-band with respect to kswapd, this patch makes a few more
expensive checks to see if it's appropriate to even clear the bit.
Every pageblock that is not cleared will avoid 512 pages being scanned
unnecessarily on x86-64.
The impact is variable with different workloads showing small
differences in latency, success rates and scan rates. This is expected
as clearing the hints is not that common but doing a small amount of
work out-of-band to avoid a large amount of work in-band later is
generally a good thing.

search gets less efficient as the larger blocks are used as compaction

patch round-robins what orders are searched so that larger blocks can be

The overall impact was small on 1-socket but it avoids corner cases

mm, compaction: reduce premature advancement of the migration target scanner
The fast isolation of free pages allows the cached PFN of the free
scanner to advance faster than necessary depending on the contents of
the free list. The key is that fast_isolate_freepages() can update
zone->compact_cached_free_pfn via isolate_freepages_block(). When the
fast search fails, the linear scan can start from a point that has
skipped valid migration targets, particularly pageblocks with just
low-order free pages. This can cause the migration source/target
scanners to meet prematurely causing a reset.
This patch starts by avoiding an update of the pageblock skip
information and cached PFN from isolate_freepages_block() and puts the
responsibility of updating that information in the callers. The fast
scanner will update the cached PFN if and only if it finds a block that
is higher than the existing cached PFN and sets the skip if the
pageblock is full or nearly full. The linear scanner will update
skipped information and the cached PFN only when a block is completely
scanned. The total impact is that the free scanner advances more slowly
as it is primarily driven by the linear scanner instead of the fast
search.

mm, compaction: do not consider a need to reschedule as contention
Scanning on large machines can take a considerable length of time and
eventually need to be rescheduled. This is treated as an abort event
but that's not appropriate as the attempt is likely to be retried after
making numerous checks and taking another cycle through the page
allocator. This patch will check the need to reschedule if necessary
but continue the scanning.
The main benefit is reduced scanning when compaction is taking a long
time or the machine is over-saturated. It also avoids an unnecessary
exit of compaction that ends up being retried by the page allocator in
the outer loop.

mm, compaction: keep cached migration PFNs synced for unusable pageblocks
Migrate has separate cached PFNs for ASYNC and SYNC* migration on the
basis that some migrations will fail in ASYNC mode. However, if the
cached PFNs match at the start of scanning and pageblocks are skipped
due to having no isolation candidates, then the sync state does not
matter. This patch keeps matching cached PFNs in sync until a pageblock
with isolation candidates is found.
The actual benefit is marginal given that the sync scanner following the
async scanner will often skip a number of pageblocks but it's useless
work. Any benefit depends heavily on whether the scanners restarted
recently.

mm, compaction: check early for huge pages encountered by the migration scanner
When scanning for sources or targets, PageCompound is checked for huge
pages as they can be skipped quickly but it happens relatively late
after a lot of setup and checking. This patch short-cuts the check to
make it earlier. It might still change when the lock is acquired but
this has less overhead overall. The free scanner advances but the
migration scanner does not. Typically the free scanner encounters more
movable blocks that change state over the lifetime of the system and
also tends to scan more aggressively as it's actively filling its
portion of the physical address space with data. This could change in
the future but for the moment, this worked better in practice and
incurred fewer scan restarts.
The impact on latency and allocation success rates is marginal but the
free scan rates are reduced by 15% and system CPU usage is reduced by
3.3%. The 2-socket results are not materially different.

mm, compaction: finish pageblock scanning on contention
Async migration aborts on spinlock contention but contention can be high
when there are multiple compaction attempts and kswapd is active. The
consequence is that the migration scanners move forward uselessly while
still contending on locks for longer while leaving suitable migration
sources behind.
This patch will acquire the lock but track when contention occurs. When
it does, the current pageblock will finish as compaction may succeed for
that block and then abort. This will have a variable impact on latency
as in some cases useless scanning is avoided (reduces latency) but a
lock will be contended (increase latency) or a single contended
pageblock is scanned that would otherwise have been skipped (increase
latency).

mm, compaction: avoid rescanning the same pageblock multiple times
Pageblocks are marked for skip when no pages are isolated after a scan.
However, it's possible to hit corner cases where the migration scanner
gets stuck near the boundary between the source and target scanner. Due
to pages being migrated in blocks of COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX, pages that are
migrated can be reallocated before the pageblock is complete. The
pageblock is not necessarily skipped so it can be rescanned multiple
times. Similarly, a pageblock with some dirty/writeback pages may fail
to migrate and be rescanned until writeback completes which is wasteful.
This patch tracks if a pageblock is being rescanned. If so, then the
entire pageblock will be migrated as one operation. This narrows the
race window during which pages can be reallocated during migration.
Secondly, if there are pages that cannot be isolated then the pageblock
will still be fully scanned and marked for skipping. On the second
rescan, the pageblock skip is set and the migration scanner makes
progress.

Negligible difference but this was likely a case when the specific
corner case was not hit. A previous run of the same patch based on an
earlier iteration of the series showed large differences where migration
rates could be halved when the corner case was hit.
The specific corner case where migration scan rates go through the roof
was due to a dirty/writeback pageblock located at the boundary of the
migration/free scanner did not happen in this case. When it does
happen, the scan rates multipled by massive margins.

Similar to the migration scanner, this patch uses the free lists to
quickly locate a migration target. The search is different in that
lower orders will be searched for a suitable high PFN if necessary but
the search is still bound. This is justified on the grounds that the
free scanner typically scans linearly much more than the migration
scanner.
If a free page is found, it is isolated and compaction continues if
enough pages were isolated. For SYNC* scanning, the full pageblock is
scanned for any remaining free pages so that is can be marked for
skipping in the near future.

mm, compaction: keep migration source private to a single compaction instance
Due to either a fast search of the free list or a linear scan, it is
possible for multiple compaction instances to pick the same pageblock
for migration. This is lucky for one scanner and increased scanning for
all the others. It also allows a race between requests on which first
allocates the resulting free block.
This patch tests and updates the pageblock skip for the migration
scanner carefully. When isolating a block, it will check and skip if
the block is already in use. Once the zone lock is acquired, it will be
rechecked so that only one scanner can set the pageblock skip for
exclusive use. Any scanner contending will continue with a linear scan.
The skip bit is still set if no pages can be isolated in a range. While
this may result in redundant scanning, it avoids unnecessarily acquiring
the zone lock when there are no suitable migration sources.

mm, compaction: use free lists to quickly locate a migration source
The migration scanner is a linear scan of a zone with a potentiall large
search space. Furthermore, many pageblocks are unusable such as those
filled with reserved pages or partially filled with pages that cannot
migrate. These still get scanned in the common case of allocating a THP
and the cost accumulates.
The patch uses a partial search of the free lists to locate a migration
source candidate that is marked as MOVABLE when allocating a THP. It
prefers picking a block with a larger number of free pages already on
the basis that there are fewer pages to migrate to free the entire
block. The lowest PFN found during searches is tracked as the basis of
the start for the linear search after the first search of the free list
fails. After the search, the free list is shuffled so that the next
search will not encounter the same page. If the search fails then the
subsequent searches will be shorter and the linear scanner is used.
If this search fails, or if the request is for a small or
unmovable/reclaimable allocation then the linear scanner is still used.
It is somewhat pointless to use the list search in those cases. Small
free pages must be used for the search and there is no guarantee that
movable pages are located within that block that are contiguous.

mm, compaction: ignore the fragmentation avoidance boost for isolation and compaction
When pageblocks get fragmented, watermarks are artifically boosted to
reclaim pages to avoid further fragmentation events. However,
compaction is often either fragmentation-neutral or moving movable pages
away from unmovable/reclaimable pages. As the true watermarks are
preserved, allow compaction to ignore the boost factor.
The expected impact is very slight as the main benefit is that
compaction is slightly more likely to succeed when the system has been
fragmented very recently. On both 1-socket and 2-socket machines for
THP-intensive allocation during fragmentation the success rate was
increased by less than 1% which is marginal. However, detailed tracing
indicated that failure of migration due to a premature ENOMEM triggered
by watermark checks were eliminated.

mm, compaction: always finish scanning of a full pageblock
When compaction is finishing, it uses a flag to ensure the pageblock is
complete but it makes sense to always complete migration of a pageblock.
Minimally, skip information is based on a pageblock and partially
scanned pageblocks may incur more scanning in the future. The pageblock
skip handling also becomes more strict later in the series and the hint
is more useful if a complete pageblock was always scanned.
The potentially impacts latency as more scanning is done but it's not a
consistent win or loss as the scanning is not always a high percentage
of the pageblock and sometimes it is offset by future reductions in
scanning. Hence, the results are not presented this time due to a
misleading mix of gains/losses without any clear pattern. However, full
scanning of the pageblock is important for later patches.

blockdev pages but there are others such as odd refcounting when
page->private is used. These are retried multiple times which is
wasteful during compaction so this patch will fail migration faster

mm, compaction: shrink compact_control
Patch series "Increase success rates and reduce latency of compaction", v3.
This series reduces scan rates and success rates of compaction,
primarily by using the free lists to shorten scans, better controlling
of skip information and whether multiple scanners can target the same
block and capturing pageblocks before being stolen by parallel requests.
The series is based on mmotm from January 9th, 2019 with the previous
compaction series reverted.
I'm mostly using thpscale to measure the impact of the series. The
benchmark creates a large file, maps it, faults it, punches holes in the
mapping so that the virtual address space is fragmented and then tries
to allocate THP. It re-executes for different numbers of threads. From
a fragmentation perspective, the workload is relatively benign but it
does stress compaction.

Compaction free scanned
474739990 11903963
The number of pages scanned for migration was reduced by 65% and the
free scanner was reduced by 97.5%. So much less work in exchange for
lower latency and better success rates.
The series was also evaluated using a workload that heavily fragments
memory but the benefits there are also significant, albeit not
presented.
It was commented that we should be rethinking scanning entirely and to a
large extent I agree. However, to achieve that you need a lot of this
series in place first so it's best to make the linear scanners as best
as possible before ripping them out.
This patch (of 22):
The isolate and migrate scanners should never isolate more than a
pageblock of pages so unsigned int is sufficient saving 8 bytes on a
64-bit build.

Although we can add inode information in swap_address_space

swap_vma_readahead() is just used for non-rotational device which much
less likely has congestion than traditional HDD.
Although swap slots may be consecutive on swap partition, it still may
be fragmented on swap file. This check would help to reduce excessive
stall for such case.

mm: remove extra drain pages on pcp list
In the current implementation, there are two places to isolate a range
of page: __offline_pages() and alloc_contig_range(). During this
procedure, it will drain pages on pcp list.
Below is a brief call flow:
__offline_pages()/alloc_contig_range()
start_isolate_page_range()
set_migratetype_isolate()
drain_all_pages()
drain_all_pages() <--- A
This snippet shows the current logic is isolate and drain pcp list for
each pageblock and drain pcp list again for the whole range.
start_isolate_page_range is responsible for isolating the given pfn
range. One part of that job is to make sure that also pages that are on
the allocator pcp lists are properly isolated. Otherwise they could be
reused and the range wouldn't be completely isolated until the memory is
freed back. While there is no strict guarantee here because pages might
get allocated at any time before drain_all_pages is called there doesn't
seem to be any strong demand for such a guarantee.
In any case, draining is already done at the isolation level and there
is no need to do it again later by start_isolate_page_range callers
(memory hotplug and CMA allocator currently). Therefore remove
pointless draining in existing callers to make the code more clear and
functionally correct.

arm64/mm: enable HugeTLB migration for contiguous bit HugeTLB pages
Let arm64 subscribe to the previously added framework in which
architecture can inform whether a given huge page size is supported for
migration. This just overrides the default function
arch_hugetlb_migration_supported() and enables migration for all
possible HugeTLB page sizes on arm64.
With this, HugeTLB migration support on arm64 now covers all possible
HugeTLB options.

mm/hugetlb: enable arch specific huge page size support for migration
Architectures like arm64 have HugeTLB page sizes which are different
than generic sizes at PMD, PUD, PGD level and implemented via contiguous
bits. At present these special size HugeTLB pages cannot be identified
through macros like (PMD|PUD|PGDIR)_SHIFT and hence chosen not be
migrated.
Enabling migration support for these special HugeTLB page sizes along
with the generic ones (PMD|PUD|PGD) would require identifying all of
them on a given platform. A platform specific hook can precisely
enumerate all huge page sizes supported for migration. Instead of
comparing against standard huge page orders let
hugetlb_migration_support() function call a platform hook
arch_hugetlb_migration_support(). Default definition for the platform
hook maintains existing semantics which checks standard huge page order.
But an architecture can choose to override the default and provide
support for a comprehensive set of huge page sizes.

Patch series "arm64/mm: Enable HugeTLB migration", v4.
This patch series enables HugeTLB migration support for all supported
huge page sizes at all levels including contiguous bit implementation.
Following HugeTLB migration support matrix has been enabled with this
patch series. All permutations have been tested except for the 16GB.
CONT PTE PMD CONT PMD PUD

4K: 64K 2M 32M 1G

First the series adds migration support for PUD based huge pages. It
then adds a platform specific hook to query an architecture if a given
huge page size is supported for migration while also providing a default
fallback option preserving the existing semantics which just checks for
(PMD|PUD|PGDIR)_SHIFT macros. The last two patches enables HugeTLB
migration on arm64 and subscribe to this new platform specific hook by
defining an override.
The second patch differentiates between movability and migratability
aspects of huge pages and implements hugepage_movable_supported() which
can then be used during allocation to decide whether to place the huge
page in movable zone or not.
This patch (of 5):
During huge page allocation it's migratability is checked to determine
if it should be placed under movable zones with GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE.
But the movability aspect of the huge page could depend on other factors
than just migratability. Movability in itself is a distinct property
which should not be tied with migratability alone.
This differentiates these two and implements an enhanced movability check
which also considers huge page size to determine if it is feasible to be
placed under a movable zone. At present it just checks for gigantic pages
but going forward it can incorporate other enhanced checks.

vmalloc: add test driver to analyse vmalloc allocator
This adds a new kernel module for analysis of vmalloc allocator. It is
only enabled as a module. There are two main reasons this module should
be used for: performance evaluation and stressing of vmalloc subsystem.
It consists of several test cases. As of now there are 8. The module
has five parameters we can specify to change its the behaviour.
1) run_test_mask - set of tests to be run
id: 1, name: fix_size_alloc_test
id: 2, name: full_fit_alloc_test
id: 4, name: long_busy_list_alloc_test
id: 8, name: random_size_alloc_test
id: 16, name: fix_align_alloc_test
id: 32, name: random_size_align_alloc_test
id: 64, name: align_shift_alloc_test
id: 128, name: pcpu_alloc_test
By default all tests are in run test mask. If you want to select some
specific tests it is possible to pass the mask. For example for first,
second and fourth tests we go 11 value.
2) test_repeat_count - how many times each test should be repeated
By default it is one time per test. It is possible to pass any number.
As high the value is the test duration gets increased.
3) test_loop_count - internal test loop counter. By default it is set
to
1000000.
4) single_cpu_test - use one CPU to run the tests
By default this parameter is set to false. It means that all online
CPUs execute tests. By setting it to 1, the tests are executed by
first online CPU only.
5) sequential_test_order - run tests in sequential order
By default this parameter is set to false. It means that before running
tests the order is shuffled. It is possible to make it sequential, just
set it to 1.
Performance analysis:
In order to evaluate performance of vmalloc allocations, usually it
makes sense to use only one CPU that runs tests, use sequential order,
number of repeat tests can be different as well as set of test mask.
For example if we want to run all tests, to use one CPU and repeat each
test 3 times. Insert the module passing following parameters:
single_cpu_test=1 sequential_test_order=1 test_repeat_count=3
with following output:
<snip>
Summary: fix_size_alloc_test passed: 3 failed: 0 repeat: 3 loops:
1000000 avg: 901177 usec
Summary: full_fit_alloc_test passed: 3 failed: 0 repeat: 3 loops:

1000000 avg: 573 usec
Summary: pcpu_alloc_test passed: 3 failed: 0 repeat: 3 loops:
1000000 avg: 95802 usec
All test took CPU0=
192945605995 cycles
<snip>
The align_shift_alloc_test is expected to be failed.
Stressing:
In order to stress the vmalloc subsystem we run all available test cases
on all available CPUs simultaneously. In order to prevent constant behaviour
pattern, the test cases array is shuffled by default to randomize the order
of test execution.
For example if we want to run all tests(default), use all online CPUs(default)
with shuffled order(default) and to repeat each test 30 times. The command
would be like:
modprobe vmalloc_test test_repeat_count=30
Expected results are the system is alive, there are no any BUG_ONs or Kernel
Panics the tests are completed, no memory leaks.

mm/vmalloc: fix size check for remap_vmalloc_range_partial()
When VM_NO_GUARD is not set area->size includes adjacent guard page,
thus for correct size checking get_vm_area_size() should be used, but
not area->size.
This fixes possible kernel oops when userspace tries to mmap an area on
1 page bigger than was allocated by vmalloc_user() call: the size check
inside remap_vmalloc_range_partial() accounts non-existing guard page
also, so check successfully passes but vmalloc_to_page() returns NULL
(guard page does not physically exist).
The following code pattern example should trigger an oops:
static int oops_mmap(struct file *file, struct vm_area_struct *vma)
{
void *mem;
mem = vmalloc_user(4096);
BUG_ON(!mem);
/* Do not care about mem leak */
return remap_vmalloc_range(vma, mem, 0);
}
And userspace simply mmaps size + PAGE_SIZE:
mmap(NULL, 8192, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, fd, 0);
Possible candidates for oops which do not have any explicit size
checks:
*** drivers/media/usb/stkwebcam/stk-webcam.c:
v4l_stk_mmap[789] ret = remap_vmalloc_range(vma, sbuf->buffer, 0);
Or the following one:
*** drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c
static int
fb_mmap(struct file *file, struct vm_area_struct * vma)
...
res = fb->fb_mmap(info, vma);
Where fb_mmap callback calls remap_vmalloc_range() directly without any
explicit checks:
*** drivers/video/fbdev/vfb.c
static int vfb_mmap(struct fb_info *info,
struct vm_area_struct *vma)
{
return remap_vmalloc_range(vma, (void *)info->fix.smem_start, vma->vm_pgoff);

mm/vmalloc.c: make vmalloc_32_user() align base kernel virtual address to SHMLBA
This patch repeats the original one from David S Miller:
2dca6999eed5 ("mm, perf_event: Make vmalloc_user() align base kernel virtual address to SHMLBA")
but for missed vmalloc_32_user() case, which also requires correct
alignment of virtual address on kernel side to avoid D-caches aliases.
A bit of copy-paste from original patch to recover in memory of what is
all about:
When a vmalloc'd area is mmap'd into userspace, some kind of
co-ordination is necessary for this to work on platforms with cpu
D-caches which can have aliases.
Otherwise kernel side writes won't be seen properly in userspace and
vice versa.
If the kernel side mapping and the user side one have the same
alignment, modulo SHMLBA, this can work as long as VM_SHARED is shared
of VMA and for all current users this is true. VM_SHARED will force
SHMLBA alignment of the user side mmap on platforms with D-cache
aliasing matters.
David S. Miller
> What are the user-visible runtime effects of this change?
In simple words: proper alignment avoids possible difference in data,
seen by different virtual mapings: userspace and kernel in our case.
I.e. userspace reads cache line A, kernel writes to cache line B. Both
cache lines correspond to the same physical memory (thus aliases).
So this should fix data corruption for archs with vivt and vipt caches,
e.g. armv6. Personally I've never worked with this archs, I just
spotted the strange difference in code: for one case we do alignment,
for another - not. I have a strong feeling that David simply missed
vmalloc_32_user() case.
>
> Is a -stable backport needed?
No, I do not think so. The only one user of vmalloc_32_user() is
virtual frame buffer device drivers/video/fbdev/vfb.c, which has in the
description "The main use of this frame buffer device is testing and
debugging the frame buffer subsystem. Do NOT enable it for normal
systems!".
And it seems to me that this vfb.c does not need 32bit addressable pages
(vmalloc_32_user() case), because it is virtual device and should not
care about things like dma32 zones, etc. Probably is better to clean
the code and switch vfb.c from vmalloc_32_user() to vmalloc_user() case
and wipe out vmalloc_32_user() from vmalloc.c completely. But I'm not
very much sure that this is worth to do, that's so minor, so we can
leave it as is.

page may be reused without copying its content.
[ Note that we do not consider PageSwapCache() pages at least for now,
since we don't want to complicate __get_ksm_page(), which has nice
optimization based on this (for the migration case). Currenly it is
spinning on PageSwapCache() pages, waiting for when they have
unfreezed counters (i.e., for the migration finish). But we don't want
to make it also spinning on swap cache pages, which we try to reuse,
since there is not a very high probability to reuse them. So, for now
we do not consider PageSwapCache() pages at all. ]
So in reuse_ksm_page() we check for 1) PageSwapCache() and 2)
page_stable_node(), to skip a page, which KSM is currently trying to
link to stable tree. Then we do page_ref_freeze() to prohibit KSM to
merge one more page into the page, we are reusing. After that, nobody
can refer to the reusing page: KSM skips !PageSwapCache() pages with
zero refcount; and the protection against of all other participants is
the same as for reused ordinary anon pages pte lock, page lock and
mmap_sem.

mm: replace all open encodings for NUMA_NO_NODE
Patch series "Replace all open encodings for NUMA_NO_NODE", v3.
All these places for replacement were found by running the following
grep patterns on the entire kernel code. Please let me know if this
might have missed some instances. This might also have replaced some
false positives. I will appreciate suggestions, inputs and review.
1. git grep "nid == -1"
2. git grep "node == -1"
3. git grep "nid = -1"
4. git grep "node = -1"
This patch (of 2):
At present there are multiple places where invalid node number is
encoded as -1. Even though implicitly understood it is always better to
have macros in there. Replace these open encodings for an invalid node
number with the global macro NUMA_NO_NODE. This helps remove NUMA
related assumptions like 'invalid node' from various places redirecting
them to a common definition.

kexec: export PG_offline to VMCOREINFO
Right now, pages inflated as part of a balloon driver will be dumped by
dump tools like makedumpfile. While XEN is able to check in the crash
kernel whether a certain pfn is actuall backed by memory in the
hypervisor (see xen_oldmem_pfn_is_ram) and optimize this case, dumps of
other balloon inflated memory will essentially result in zero pages
getting allocated by the hypervisor and the dump getting filled with
this data.
The allocation and reading of zero pages can directly be avoided if a
dumping tool could know which pages only contain stale information not
to be dumped.
We now have PG_offline which can be (and already is by virtio-balloon)
used for marking pages as logically offline. Follow up patches will
make use of this flag also in other balloon implementations.
Let's export PG_offline via PAGE_OFFLINE_MAPCOUNT_VALUE, so makedumpfile
can directly skip pages that are logically offline and the content
therefore stale.
Please note that this is also helpful for a problem we were seeing under
Hyper-V: Dumping logically offline memory (pages kept fake offline while
onlining a section via online_page_callback) would under some condicions
result in a kernel panic when dumping them.

mm: convert PG_balloon to PG_offline
PG_balloon was introduced to implement page migration/compaction for
pages inflated in virtio-balloon. Nowadays, it is only a marker that a
page is part of virtio-balloon and therefore logically offline.
We also want to make use of this flag in other balloon drivers - for
inflated pages or when onlining a section but keeping some pages offline
(e.g. used right now by XEN and Hyper-V via set_online_page_callback()).
We are going to expose this flag to dump tools like makedumpfile. But
instead of exposing PG_balloon, let's generalize the concept of marking
pages as logically offline, so it can be reused for other purposes later
on.
Rename PG_balloon to PG_offline. This is an indicator that the page is
logically offline, the content stale and that it should not be touched
(e.g. a hypervisor would have to allocate backing storage in order for
the guest to dump an unused page). We can then e.g. exclude such pages
from dumps.
We replace and reuse KPF_BALLOON (23), as this shouldn't really harm
(and for now the semantics stay the same). In following patches, we
will make use of this bit also in other balloon drivers. While at it,
document PGTABLE.

mm: balloon: update comment about isolation/migration/compaction
Patch series "mm/kdump: allow to exclude pages that are logically
offline"
Right now, pages inflated as part of a balloon driver will be dumped by
dump tools like makedumpfile. While XEN is able to check in the crash
kernel whether a certain pfn is actuall backed by memory in the
hypervisor (see xen_oldmem_pfn_is_ram) and optimize this case, dumps of
virtio-balloon, hv-balloon and VMWare balloon inflated memory will
essentially result in zero pages getting allocated by the hypervisor and
the dump getting filled with this data.
The allocation and reading of zero pages can directly be avoided if a
dumping tool could know which pages only contain stale information not
to be dumped.
Also for XEN, calling into the kernel and asking the hypervisor if a pfn
is backed can be avoided if the duming tool would skip such pages right
from the beginning.
Dumping tools have no idea whether a given page is part of a balloon
driver and shall not be dumped. Esp. PG_reserved cannot be used for
that purpose as all memory allocated during early boot is also
PG_reserved, see discussion at [1]. So some other way of indication is
required and a new page flag is frowned upon.
We have PG_balloon (MAPCOUNT value), which is essentially unused now. I
suggest renaming it to something more generic (PG_offline) to mark pages
as logically offline. This flag can than e.g. also be used by
virtio-mem in the future to mark subsections as offline. Or by other
code that wants to put pages logically offline (e.g. later maybe
poisoned pages that shall no longer be used).
This series converts PG_balloon to PG_offline, allows dumping tools to
query the value to detect such pages and marks pages in the hv-balloon
and XEN balloon properly as PG_offline. Note that virtio-balloon
already set pages to PG_balloon (and now PG_offline).
Please note that this is also helpful for a problem we were seeing under
Hyper-V: Dumping logically offline memory (pages kept fake offline while
onlining a section via online_page_callback) would under some condicions
result in a kernel panic when dumping them.
As I don't have access to neither XEN nor Hyper-V nor VMWare
installations, this was only tested with the virtio-balloon and pages
were properly skipped when dumping. I'll also attach the makedumpfile
patch to this series.

Commit
b1123ea6d3b3 ("mm: balloon: use general non-lru movable page

fs/inode.c: inode_set_flags(): replace opencoded set_mask_bits()
It seems that commits
5f16f3225b0624 and
00a1a053ebe5, both with same
commitlog ("ext4: atomically set inode->i_flags in ext4_set_inode_flags()")
introduced the set_mask_bits API, but somehow missed not using it in ext4
in the end.
Also, set_mask_bits() is used in fs quite a bit and we can possibly come
up with a generic llsc based implementation (w/o the cmpxchg loop)

ocfs2: Use zero-sized array and struct_size() in kzalloc()
Update the code to use a zero-sized array instead of a pointer in
structure ocfs2_slot_info and use struct_size() in kzalloc().
Notice that one of the more common cases of allocation size calculations
is finding the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the
end, along with memory for some number of elements for that array. For
example:
struct foo {
int stuff;
void *entry[];
};
instance = kzalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(void *) * count, GFP_KERNEL);
Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can
now use the new struct_size() helper:
instance = kzalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL);
This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

ocfs2: fix the application IO timeout when fstrim is running
The user reported this problem, the upper application IO was timeout
when fstrim was running on this ocfs2 partition. the application
monitoring resource agent considered that this application did not work,
then this node was fenced by the cluster brain (e.g. pacemaker).
The root cause is that fstrim thread always holds main_bm meta-file
related locks until all the cluster groups are trimmed. This patch will
make fstrim thread release main_bm meta-file related locks when each
cluster group is trimmed, this will let the current application IO has a
chance to claim the clusters from main_bm meta-file.

disable KASAN for some reason but call atomic_t based helper functions.
We can fix this by checking the predefined __SANITIZE_ADDRESS__ macro
that the compiler sets instead of checking CONFIG_KASAN, but this in
turn requires a small hack in mm/kasan/common.c so we do see the extern
declaration there instead of the inline function.

kasan: remove use after scope bugs detection.
Use after scope bugs detector seems to be almost entirely useless for
the linux kernel. It exists over two years, but I've seen only one
valid bug so far [1]. And the bug was fixed before it has been
reported. There were some other use-after-scope reports, but they were
false-positives due to different reasons like incompatibility with
structleak plugin.
This feature significantly increases stack usage, especially with GCC <
9 version, and causes a 32K stack overflow. It probably adds
performance penalty too.
Given all that, let's remove use-after-scope detector entirely.
While preparing this patch I've noticed that we mistakenly enable
use-after-scope detection for clang compiler regardless of
CONFIG_KASAN_EXTRA setting. This is also fixed now.

a.out: remove core dumping support
We're (finally) phasing out a.out support for good. As Borislav Petkov
points out, we've supported ELF binaries for about 25 years by now, and
coredumping in particular has bitrotted over the years.
None of the tool chains even support generating a.out binaries any more,
and the plan is to deprecate a.out support entirely for the kernel. But
I want to start with just removing the core dumping code, because I can
still imagine that somebody actually might want to support a.out as a
simpler biinary format.
Particularly if you generate some random binaries on the fly, ELF is a
much more complicated format (admittedly ELF also does have a lot of
toolchain support, mitigating that complexity a lot and you really
should have moved over in the last 25 years).
So it's at least somewhat possible that somebody out there has some
workflow that still involves generating and running a.out executables.
In contrast, it's very unlikely that anybody depends on debugging any
legacy a.out core files. But regardless, I want this phase-out to be
done in two steps, so that we can resurrect a.out support (if needed)
without having to resurrect the core file dumping that is almost
certainly not needed.
Jann Horn pointed to the <asm/a.out-core.h> file that my first trivial
cut at this had missed.
And Alan Cox points out that the a.out binary loader _could_ be done in
user space if somebody wants to, but we might keep just the loader in
the kernel if somebody really wants it, since the loader isn't that big
and has no really odd special cases like the core dumping does.
