memory_hotplug: ensure every online node has NORMAL memory
Old memory hotplug code and new online/movable may cause a online node
don't have any normal memory, but memory-management acts bad when we have
nodes which is online but don't have any normal memory. Example: it may
cause a bound task fail on all kernel allocation and cause the task can't
create task or create other kernel object.
So we disable non-normal-memory-node here, we will enable it when we
prepared.

mm, memory-hotplug: dynamic configure movable memory and portion memory
Add online_movable and online_kernel for logic memory hotplug. This is
the dynamic version of "movablecore" & "kernelcore".
We have the same reason to introduce it as to introduce "movablecore" &
"kernelcore". It has the same motive as "movablecore" & "kernelcore", but
it is dynamic/running-time:
o We can configure memory as kernelcore or movablecore after boot.
Userspace workload is increased, we need more hugepage, we can't use
"online_movable" to add memory and allow the system use more
THP(transparent-huge-page), vice-verse when kernel workload is increase.
Also help for virtualization to dynamic configure host/guest's memory,
to save/(reduce waste) memory.
Memory capacity on Demand
o When a new node is physically online after boot, we need to use
"online_movable" or "online_kernel" to configure/portion it as we
expected when we logic-online it.
This configuration also helps for physically-memory-migrate.
o all benefit as the same as existed "movablecore" & "kernelcore".
o Preparing for movable-node, which is very important for power-saving,
hardware partitioning and high-available-system(hardware fault
management).
(Note, we don't introduce movable-node here.)
Action behavior:
When a memoryblock/memorysection is onlined by "online_movable", the kernel
will not have directly reference to the page of the memoryblock,
thus we can remove that memory any time when needed.
When it is online by "online_kernel", the kernel can use it.
When it is online by "online", the zone type doesn't changed.
Current constraints:
Only the memoryblock which is adjacent to the ZONE_MOVABLE
can be online from ZONE_NORMAL to ZONE_MOVABLE.

test_set_oom_score_adj() and compare_swap_oom_score_adj() are used to

The usage is
short oom_score_adj = test_set_oom_score_adj(OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX);

This happens to still be racy, however, if the user writes
OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX to /proc/pid/oom_score_adj in between the two calls.
The compare_swap_oom_score_adj() will then incorrectly reset the old value
prior to the write of OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX.
To fix this, introduce a new oom_flags_t member in struct signal_struct
that will be used for per-thread oom killer flags. KSM and swapoff can
now use a bit in this member to specify that threads should be killed

mm: debug code to verify rb_subtree_gap updates are safe
Using the trinity fuzzer, Sasha Levin uncovered a case where
rb_subtree_gap wasn't correctly updated.
Digging into this, the root cause was that vma insertions and removals
require both an rbtree insert or erase operation (which may trigger
tree rotations), and an update of the next vma's gap (which does not
change the tree topology, but may require iterating on the node's
ancestors to propagate the update). The rbtree rotations caused the
rb_subtree_gap values to be updated in some of the internal nodes, but
without upstream propagation. Then the subsequent update on the next
vma didn't iterate as high up the tree as it should have, as it
stopped as soon as it hit one of the internal nodes that had been
updated as part of a tree rotation.
The fix is to impose that all rb_subtree_gap values must be up to date
before any rbtree insertion or erase, with the possible exception that
the node being erased doesn't need to have an up to date rb_subtree_gap.
This change: introduce validate_mm_rb() to verify that the rbtree does
not include any stale rb_subtree_gap values before node insertion or
erase, so as to avoid the issue where a subsequent vma_gap_update() would
fail to propagate the rb_subtree_gap updates as high up as necessary.

without upstream propagation. Then the subsequent update on the next
vma didn't iterate as high up the tree as it should have, as it
stopped as soon as it hit one of the internal nodes that had been
updated as part of a tree rotation.
The fix is to impose that all rb_subtree_gap values must be up to date
before any rbtree insertion or erase, with the possible exception that
the node being erased doesn't need to have an up to date rb_subtree_gap.
This change: during VMA removal, remove VMA from the rbtree before we
remove it from the linked list. The implication is the next vma's
rb_subtree_gap value becomes stale when next->vm_prev is updated,
and we want to make sure vma_rb_erase() runs before there are any
such stale rb_subtree_gap values in the rbtree.
(I don't know of a reproduceable test case for this particular issue)

mm: ensure safe rb_subtree_gap update when inserting new VMA
Using the trinity fuzzer, Sasha Levin uncovered a case where
rb_subtree_gap wasn't correctly updated.
Digging into this, the root cause was that vma insertions and removals
require both an rbtree insert or erase operation (which may trigger tree
rotations), and an update of the next vma's gap (which does not change the
tree topology, but may require iterating on the node's ancestors to
propagate the update). The rbtree rotations caused the rb_subtree_gap
values to be updated in some of the internal nodes, but without upstream
propagation. Then the subsequent update on the next vma didn't iterate as
high up the tree as it should have, as it stopped as soon as it hit one of
the internal nodes that had been updated as part of a tree rotation.
The fix is to impose that all rb_subtree_gap values must be up to date
before any rbtree insertion or erase, with the possible exception that the
node being erased doesn't need to have an up to date rb_subtree_gap.
This change: during vma insertion, make sure to update the rb_subtree_gap
values for both the current and next vmas prior to rebalancing the rbtree
to account for the just-inserted vma.
(Thanks to Sasha Levin for uncovering the problem and to Hugh Dickins
for coming up with a simpler test case)

Define vma->rb_subtree_gap as the largest gap between any vma in the
subtree rooted at that vma, and their predecessor. Or, for a recursive
definition, vma->rb_subtree_gap is the max of:
- vma->vm_start - vma->vm_prev->vm_end
- rb_subtree_gap fields of the vmas pointed by vma->rb.rb_left and
vma->rb.rb_right
This will allow get_unmapped_area_* to find a free area of the right size
in O(log(N)) time, instead of potentially having to do a linear walk
across all the VMAs.
Also define mm->highest_vm_end as the vm_end field of the highest vma, so
that we can easily check if the following gap is suitable.
This does have the potential to make unmapping VMAs more expensive,
especially for processes with very large numbers of VMAs, where the VMA
rbtree can grow quite deep.

This is an elusive one, I couldn't reproduce it with master. This appears
to only happen on the akpm branch, correct?
It happens because of e37c64a9751a ("mm: support more pagesizes for
MAP_HUGETLB/SHM_HUGETLB") adds a spurious "#endif" to include/linux/shm.h
and gets reverted in master by 359078d82a20 ("Revert "mm: support more
pagesizes for MAP_HUGETLB/SHM_HUGETLB"") because of another build failure
that Stephen reports on November 8:

mm: support more pagesizes for MAP_HUGETLB/SHM_HUGETLB
There was some desire in large applications using MAP_HUGETLB/SHM_HUGETLB
to use 1GB huge pages on some mappings, and stay with 2MB on others. This
is useful together with NUMA policy: use 2MB interleaving on some
mappings, but 1GB on local mappings.
This patch extends the IPC/SHM syscall interfaces slightly to allow
specifying the page size.
It borrows some upper bits in the existing flag arguments and allows
encoding the log of the desired page size in addition to the *_HUGETLB
flag. When 0 is specified the default size is used, this makes the change
fully compatible.
Extending the internal hugetlb code to handle this is straight forward.
Instead of a single mount it just keeps an array of them and selects the
right mount based on the specified page size. When no page size is
specified it uses the mount of the default page size.
The change is not visible in /proc/mounts because internal mounts don't
appear there. It also has very little overhead: the additional mounts
just consume a super block, but not more memory when not used.
I also exported the new flags to the user headers (they were previously
under __KERNEL__). Right now only symbols for x86 and some other
architecture for 1GB and 2MB are defined. The interface should already
work for all other architectures though. Only architectures that define
multiple hugetlb sizes actually need it (that is currently x86, tile,
powerpc). However tile and powerpc have user configurable hugetlb sizes,
so it's not easy to add defines. A program on those architectures would
need to query sysfs and use the appropiate log2.

There are several callers of action_result() except page_action(), but

slub: drop mutex before deleting sysfs entry
Sasha Levin recently reported a lockdep problem resulting from the new
attribute propagation introduced by kmemcg series. In short, slab_mutex
will be called from within the sysfs attribute store function. This will
create a dependency, that will later be held backwards when a cache is
destroyed - since destruction occurs with the slab_mutex held, and then
calls in to the sysfs directory removal function.
In this patch, I propose to adopt a strategy close to what
__kmem_cache_create does before calling sysfs_slab_add, and release the
lock before the call to sysfs_slab_remove. This is pretty much the last
operation in the kmem_cache_shutdown() path, so we could do better by
splitting this and moving this call alone to later on. This will fit
nicely when sysfs handling is consistent between all caches, but will look
weird now.

First, the expected context for the for_each_memcg_cache macro in

it is trivially safe because the lock is acquired right before the loop.
In mm/slab.c, it is less so: the lock is acquired by an outer function a
few steps back in the stack, so a VM_BUG_ON() is added to make sure it is
indeed safe.
A comment is also added to detail why we are returning the value of the
parent cache and ignoring the children's when we propagate the attributes.

slub: slub-specific propagation changes
SLUB allows us to tune a particular cache behavior with sysfs-based
tunables. When creating a new memcg cache copy, we'd like to preserve any
tunables the parent cache already had.
This can be done by tapping into the store attribute function provided by
the allocator. We of course don't need to mess with read-only fields.
Since the attributes can have multiple types and are stored internally by
sysfs, the best strategy is to issue a ->show() in the root cache, and
then ->store() in the memcg cache.
The drawback of that, is that sysfs can allocate up to a page in buffering
for show(), that we are likely not to need, but also can't guarantee. To
avoid always allocating a page for that, we can update the caches at store
time with the maximum attribute size ever stored to the root cache. We
will then get a buffer big enough to hold it. The corolary to this, is
that if no stores happened, nothing will be propagated.
It can also happen that a root cache has its tunables updated during
normal system operation. In this case, we will propagate the change to
all caches that are already active.

SLAB allows us to tune a particular cache behavior with tunables. When

This could be done by an explicit call to do_tune_cpucache() after the
cache is created. But this is not very convenient now that the caches are
created from common code, since this function is SLAB-specific.
Another method of doing that is taking advantage of the fact that
do_tune_cpucache() is always called from enable_cpucache(), which is
called at cache initialization. We can just preset the values, and then
things work as expected.
It can also happen that a root cache has its tunables updated during
normal system operation. In this case, we will propagate the change to
all caches that are already active.
This change will require us to move the assignment of root_cache in

memcg: remove test for current->mm in memcg_stop/resume_kmem_account
The original reason for the existence of this test, was that
memcg_kmem_cache_create could be called from either softirq context (where
memcg_stop/resume_account is not needed), or process context, (where
memcg_stop/resume_account is needed). Just skipping it in-function was
the cleanest way to merge both behaviors. The reason for that is that we
would try to create caches right away through memcg_kmem_cache_create if
the context would allow us to.
However, the final version of the code that merged did not have this
behavior and we always queue up new cache creation. Thus, instead of a
comment explaining why current->mm test is needed, my proposal in this
patch is to remove memcg_stop/resume_account from the worker thread and
make sure all callers have a valid mm context.

memcg: skip memcg kmem allocations in specified code regions
Create a mechanism that skip memcg allocations during certain pieces of
our core code. It basically works in the same way as
preempt_disable()/preempt_enable(): By marking a region under which all
allocations will be accounted to the root memcg.
We need this to prevent races in early cache creation, when we
allocate data using caches that are not necessarily created already.

memcg: infrastructure to match an allocation to the right cache
The page allocator is able to bind a page to a memcg when it is allocated.
But for the caches, we'd like to have as many objects as possible in a
page belonging to the same cache.
This is done in this patch by calling memcg_kmem_get_cache in the
beginning of every allocation function. This function is patched out by
static branches when kernel memory controller is not being used.
It assumes that the task allocating, which determines the memcg in the
page allocator, belongs to the same cgroup throughout the whole process.
Misaccounting can happen if the task calls memcg_kmem_get_cache() while
belonging to a cgroup, and later on changes. This is considered
acceptable, and should only happen upon task migration.
Before the cache is created by the memcg core, there is also a possible
imbalance: the task belongs to a memcg, but the cache being allocated from
is the global cache, since the child cache is not yet guaranteed to be
ready. This case is also fine, since in this case the GFP_KMEMCG will not
be passed and the page allocator will not attempt any cgroup accounting.

memcg: allocate memory for memcg caches whenever a new memcg appears
Every cache that is considered a root cache (basically the "original"
caches, tied to the root memcg/no-memcg) will have an array that should be
large enough to store a cache pointer per each memcg in the system.
Theoreticaly, this is as high as 1 << sizeof(css_id), which is currently
in the 64k pointers range. Most of the time, we won't be using that much.
What goes in this patch, is a simple scheme to dynamically allocate such
an array, in order to minimize memory usage for memcg caches. Because we
would also like to avoid allocations all the time, at least for now, the
array will only grow. It will tend to be big enough to hold the maximum
number of kmem-limited memcgs ever achieved.
We'll allocate it to be a minimum of 64 kmem-limited memcgs. When we have
more than that, we'll start doubling the size of this array every time the
limit is reached.
Because we are only considering kmem limited memcgs, a natural point for
this to happen is when we write to the limit. At that point, we already
have set_limit_mutex held, so that will become our natural synchronization
mechanism.

slab/slub: consider a memcg parameter in kmem_create_cache
Allow a memcg parameter to be passed during cache creation. When the slub
allocator is being used, it will only merge caches that belong to the same
memcg. We'll do this by scanning the global list, and then translating
the cache to a memcg-specific cache
Default function is created as a wrapper, passing NULL to the memcg
version. We only merge caches that belong to the same memcg.
A helper is provided, memcg_css_id: because slub needs a unique cache name
for sysfs. Since this is visible, but not the canonical location for slab
data, the cache name is not used, the css_id should suffice.

slab: annotate on-slab caches nodelist locks
We currently provide lockdep annotation for kmalloc caches, and also
caches that have SLAB_DEBUG_OBJECTS enabled. The reason for this is that
we can quite frequently nest in the l3->list_lock lock, which is not
something trivial to avoid.
My proposal with this patch, is to extend this to caches whose slab
management object lives within the slab as well ("on_slab"). The need for
this arose in the context of testing kmemcg-slab patches. With such
patchset, we can have per-memcg kmalloc caches. So the same path that led
to nesting between kmalloc caches will could then lead to in-memcg
nesting. Because they are not annotated, lockdep will trigger.
