mm: do not walk all of system memory during show_mem
It has been reported on very large machines that show_mem is taking almost
5 minutes to display information. This is a serious problem if there is
an OOM storm. The bulk of the cost is in show_mem doing a very expensive
PFN walk to give us the following information
Total RAM: Also available as totalram_pages
Highmem pages: Also available as totalhigh_pages
Reserved pages: Can be inferred from the zone structure
Shared pages: PFN walk required
Unshared pages: PFN walk required
Quick pages: Per-cpu walk required
Only the shared/unshared pages requires a full PFN walk but that
information is useless. It is also inaccurate as page pins of unshared
pages would be accounted for as shared. Even if the information was
accurate, I'm struggling to think how the shared/unshared information
could be useful for debugging OOM conditions. Maybe it was useful before
rmap existed when reclaiming shared pages was costly but it is less
relevant today.
The PFN walk could be optimised a bit but why bother as the information is
useless. This patch deletes the PFN walker and infers the total RAM,
highmem and reserved pages count from struct zone. It omits the
shared/unshared page usage on the grounds that it is useless. It also
corrects the reporting of HighMem as HighMem/MovableOnly as ZONE_MOVABLE
has similar problems to HighMem with respect to lowmem/highmem exhaustion.

mem-hotplug: introduce movable_node boot option
The hot-Pluggable field in SRAT specifies which memory is hotpluggable.
As we mentioned before, if hotpluggable memory is used by the kernel, it
cannot be hot-removed. So memory hotplug users may want to set all
hotpluggable memory in ZONE_MOVABLE so that the kernel won't use it.
Memory hotplug users may also set a node as movable node, which has
ZONE_MOVABLE only, so that the whole node can be hot-removed.
But the kernel cannot use memory in ZONE_MOVABLE. By doing this, the
kernel cannot use memory in movable nodes. This will cause NUMA
performance down. And other users may be unhappy.
So we need a way to allow users to enable and disable this functionality.
In this patch, we introduce movable_node boot option to allow users to
choose to not to consume hotpluggable memory at early boot time and later
we can set it as ZONE_MOVABLE.
To achieve this, the movable_node boot option will control the memblock
allocation direction. That said, after memblock is ready, before SRAT is
parsed, we should allocate memory near the kernel image as we explained in
the previous patches. So if movable_node boot option is set, the kernel
does the following:
1. After memblock is ready, make memblock allocate memory bottom up.
2. After SRAT is parsed, make memblock behave as default, allocate memory
top down.
Users can specify "movable_node" in kernel commandline to enable this
functionality. For those who don't use memory hotplug or who don't want
to lose their NUMA performance, just don't specify anything. The kernel
will work as before.

mm/memblock.c: factor out of top-down allocation
[Problem]
The current Linux cannot migrate pages used by the kernel because of the
kernel direct mapping. In Linux kernel space, va = pa + PAGE_OFFSET.
When the pa is changed, we cannot simply update the pagetable and keep the
va unmodified. So the kernel pages are not migratable.
There are also some other issues will cause the kernel pages not
migratable. For example, the physical address may be cached somewhere and
will be used. It is not to update all the caches.
When doing memory hotplug in Linux, we first migrate all the pages in one
memory device somewhere else, and then remove the device. But if pages
are used by the kernel, they are not migratable. As a result, memory used
by the kernel cannot be hot-removed.
Modifying the kernel direct mapping mechanism is too difficult to do. And
it may cause the kernel performance down and unstable. So we use the
following way to do memory hotplug.
[What we are doing]
In Linux, memory in one numa node is divided into several zones. One of
the zones is ZONE_MOVABLE, which the kernel won't use.
In order to implement memory hotplug in Linux, we are going to arrange all
hotpluggable memory in ZONE_MOVABLE so that the kernel won't use these
memory. To do this, we need ACPI's help.
In ACPI, SRAT(System Resource Affinity Table) contains NUMA info. The
memory affinities in SRAT record every memory range in the system, and
also, flags specifying if the memory range is hotpluggable. (Please refer
to ACPI spec 5.0 5.2.16)
With the help of SRAT, we have to do the following two things to achieve our
goal:
1. When doing memory hot-add, allow the users arranging hotpluggable as
ZONE_MOVABLE.
(This has been done by the MOVABLE_NODE functionality in Linux.)
2. when the system is booting, prevent bootmem allocator from allocating
hotpluggable memory for the kernel before the memory initialization
finishes.
The problem 2 is the key problem we are going to solve. But before solving it,
we need some preparation. Please see below.
[Preparation]
Bootloader has to load the kernel image into memory. And this memory must
be unhotpluggable. We cannot prevent this anyway. So in a memory hotplug
system, we can assume any node the kernel resides in is not hotpluggable.
Before SRAT is parsed, we don't know which memory ranges are hotpluggable.
But memblock has already started to work. In the current kernel,
memblock allocates the following memory before SRAT is parsed:
setup_arch()
|->memblock_x86_fill() /* memblock is ready */
|......
|->early_reserve_e820_mpc_new() /* allocate memory under 1MB */
|->reserve_real_mode() /* allocate memory under 1MB */
|->init_mem_mapping() /* allocate page tables, about 2MB to map 1GB memory */
|->dma_contiguous_reserve() /* specified by user, should be low */
|->setup_log_buf() /* specified by user, several mega bytes */
|->relocate_initrd() /* could be large, but will be freed after boot, should reorder */
|->acpi_initrd_override() /* several mega bytes */
|->reserve_crashkernel() /* could be large, should reorder */
|......
|->initmem_init() /* Parse SRAT */
According to Tejun's advice, before SRAT is parsed, we should try our best
to allocate memory near the kernel image. Since the whole node the kernel
resides in won't be hotpluggable, and for a modern server, a node may have
at least 16GB memory, allocating several mega bytes memory around the
kernel image won't cross to hotpluggable memory.
[About this patchset]
So this patchset is the preparation for the problem 2 that we want to
solve. It does the following:
1. Make memblock be able to allocate memory bottom up.
1) Keep all the memblock APIs' prototype unmodified.
2) When the direction is bottom up, keep the start address greater than the
end of kernel image.
2. Improve init_mem_mapping() to support allocate page tables in
bottom up direction.
3. Introduce "movable_node" boot option to enable and disable this
functionality.
This patch (of 6):
Create a new function __memblock_find_range_top_down to factor out of
top-down allocation from memblock_find_in_range_node. This is a
preparation because we will introduce a new bottom-up allocation mode in
the following patch.

swap: fix setting PAGE_SIZE blocksize during swapoff/swapon race
Fix race between swapoff and swapon resulting in setting blocksize of
PAGE_SIZE for block devices during swapoff.
The swapon modifies swap_info->old_block_size before acquiring
swapon_mutex. It reads block_size of bdev, stores it under
swap_info->old_block_size and sets new block_size to PAGE_SIZE.
On the other hand the swapoff sets the device's block_size to
old_block_size after releasing swapon_mutex.
This patch locks the swapon_mutex much earlier during swapon. It also
releases the swapon_mutex later during swapoff.
The effect of race can be triggered by following scenario:
- One block swap device with block size of 512
- thread 1: Swapon is called, swap is activated,
p->old_block_size = block_size(p->bdev); /512/
block_size(p->bdev) = PAGE_SIZE;
Thread ends.
- thread 2: Swapoff is called and it goes just after releasing the
swapon_mutex. The swap is now fully disabled except of setting the
block size to old value. The p->bdev->block_size is still equal to
PAGE_SIZE.
- thread 3: New swapon is called. This swap is disabled so without
acquiring the swapon_mutex:
- p->old_block_size = block_size(p->bdev); /PAGE_SIZE (!!!)/
- block_size(p->bdev) = PAGE_SIZE;
Swap is activated and thread ends.
- thread 2: resumes work and sets blocksize to old value:
- set_blocksize(bdev, p->old_block_size)
But now the p->old_block_size is equal to PAGE_SIZE.
The patch swap-fix-set_blocksize-race-during-swapon-swapoff does not fix
this particular issue. It reduces the possibility of races as the swapon
must overwrite p->old_block_size before acquiring swapon_mutex in swapoff.

The sentence is about the hunk below. writeback_inodes_wb() is special in
that it directly calls queue_io() (everything else goes through
wb_writeback()) and my previous patch thus resulted in using 0 as an
older_than_this value => likely we wouldn't queue any inodes for writeback.
I've added WARN_ON_ONCE into move_expired_inodes() to increase a chance of
catching such mistakes in future (although in this particular case it
wouldn't really help because writeback_inodes_wb() gets hardly ever
called).
Currently we use 0 as a special value of work->older_than_this to
indicate that wb_writeback() should set work->older_that_this to current
time. This works but it is a bit magic. So use a special flag in
work_struct for that.
Also fixup writeback from workqueue rescuer (writeback_inodes_wb()) to
include all inodes. Currently it would use 0 as an older_than_this value
thus queue_io() would likely not queue any inodes for writeback.

indicate that wb_writeback() should set work->older_that_this to current

work_struct for that.

writeback: do not sync data dirtied after sync start
When there are processes heavily creating small files while sync(2) is
running, it can easily happen that quite some new files are created
between WB_SYNC_NONE and WB_SYNC_ALL pass of sync(2). That can happen
especially if there are several busy filesystems (remember that sync
traverses filesystems sequentially and waits in WB_SYNC_ALL phase on one
fs before starting it on another fs). Because WB_SYNC_ALL pass is slow
(e.g. causes a transaction commit and cache flush for each inode in
ext3), resulting sync(2) times are rather large.
The following script reproduces the problem:
function run_writers
{
for (( i = 0; i < 10; i++ )); do
mkdir $1/dir$i
for (( j = 0; j < 40000; j++ )); do
dd if=/dev/zero of=$1/dir$i/$j bs=4k count=4 &>/dev/null
done &
done
}
for dir in "$@"; do
run_writers $dir
done
sleep 40
time sync
======
Fix the problem by disregarding inodes dirtied after sync(2) was called in
the WB_SYNC_ALL pass. To allow for this, sync_inodes_sb() now takes a
time stamp when sync has started which is used for setting up work for
flusher threads.
To give some numbers, when above script is run on two ext4 filesystems on
simple SATA drive, the average sync time from 10 runs is 267.549 seconds
with standard deviation 104.799426. With the patched kernel, the average
sync time from 10 runs is 2.995 seconds with standard deviation 0.096.

tools/vm/page-types.c: support KPF_SOFTDIRTY bit
Soft dirty bit allows us to track which pages are written since the last
clear_ref (by "echo 4 > /proc/pid/clear_refs".) This is useful for
userspace applications to know their memory footprints.
Note that the kernel exposes this flag via bit[55] of /proc/pid/pagemap,
and the semantics is not a default one (scheduled to be the default in the
near future.) However, it shifts to the new semantics at the first
clear_ref, and the users of soft dirty bit always do it before utilizing

This patch moves frontswap_map_set() in swapoff just after calling

This patch marks the vmap_area containing pointers explicitly and reduces
the min ref_count to 2 as vm_struct still contains a reference to the

mm: thp: khugepaged: add policy for finding target node
Khugepaged will scan/free HPAGE_PMD_NR normal pages and replace with a
hugepage which is allocated from the node of the first scanned normal
page, but this policy is too rough and may end with unexpected result to
upper users.
The problem is the original page-balancing among all nodes will be broken
after hugepaged started. Thinking about the case if the first scanned
normal page is allocated from node A, most of other scanned normal pages
are allocated from node B or C.. But hugepaged will always allocate
hugepage from node A which will cause extra memory pressure on node A
which is not the situation before khugepaged started.
This patch try to fix this problem by making khugepaged allocate hugepage
from the node which have max record of scaned normal pages hit, so that
the effect to original page-balancing can be minimized.
The other problem is if normal scanned pages are equally allocated from
Node A,B and C, after khugepaged started Node A will still suffer extra
memory pressure.
Andrew Davidoff reported a related issue several days ago. He wanted his
application interleaving among all nodes and "numactl --interleave=all
./test" was used to run the testcase, but the result wasn't not as
expected.
cat /proc/2814/numa_maps: 7f50bd440000 interleave:0-3 anon=51403 dirty=51403 N0=435 N1=435 N2=435
N3=50098
The end result showed that most pages are from Node3 instead of interleave
among node0-3 which was unreasonable.
This patch also fix this issue by allocating hugepage round robin from all
nodes have the same record, after this patch the result was as expected: 7f78399c0000 interleave:0-3 anon=51403 dirty=51403 N0=12723 N1=12723
N2=13235 N3=12722
The simple testcase is like this:
int main() {
char *p;
int i;
int j;
for (i=0; i < 200; i++) {
p = (char *)malloc(1048576);
printf("malloc done\n");
if (p == 0) {
printf("Out of memory\n");
return 1;
}

local_pci_probe(). If you're wondering how this ever could have worked,
it's because it used to be the case that only return values less than zero
were interpreted as failure. But even in the current kernel if the driver
registers its various entry points with the kernel, and then returns a
value which is interpreted as failure, those registrations aren't undone,
so the driver still mostly works. However, the driver's remove function
wouldn't be called on rmmod, and pci power management functions wouldn't
work. In the case of Smart Array, since it has a battery backed cache (or
else no cache) even if the driver is not shut down properly as long as
there is no outstanding i/o, nothing too bad happens, which is why it took
so long to notice.
Requesting backport to stable because the change to pci-driver.c which
requires driver probe functions to return 0 occurred between 2.6.35 and
2.6.36 (the pci power management breakage) and again between 3.7 and 3.8
(pci_dev->driver getting set to NULL in local_pci_probe() preventing
driver remove function from being called on rmmod.)

drivers/pci/pci-driver.c: warn on driver probe return value greater than zero
Ages ago, drivers could return values greater than zero from their probe
function and this would be regarded as success. Commit f3ec4f87d607f40497
"PCI: change device runtime PM settings for probe and remove" slightly
altered this in 2010, and commit 967577b062417b4e4b8e27b ("PCI/PM: Keep
runtime PM enabled for unbound PCI devices") in late 2012 altered it more
signficantly, setting pci_dev->driver to NULL if the driver's probe
function returned a value greater than zero, which would for example
prevent the driver's remove function from being called on rmmod.
Neither of those changes would necessarily make the driver fail in an
obvious way though, and so at least a couple drivers (cciss, hpsa) fell
into this hole since they were returning 1, and this situation went
unnoticed for quite some time.
If a driver's probe function returns a value greater than zero, issue a
warning, but otherwise treat this as success.

ocfs2: use the new DLM operation callbacks while requesting new lockspace
Attempt to use the new DLM operations. If it is not supported, use the

To exchange ocfs2 versioning, we use the LVB of the version dlm lock. It
first attempts to take the lock in EX mode (non-blocking). If successful
(which means it is the first mount), it writes the version number and
downconverts to PR lock. If it is unsuccessful, it reads the version from
the lock.
If this becomes the standard (with o2cb as well), it could simplify
userspace tools to check if the filesystem is mounted on other nodes.

creates a new membership and relays to the rest of the nodes.
recover_prep() is called when DLM understands a node is down.
recover_slot() is called once all nodes have acknowledged recover_prep and

This is an effort of removing ocfs2_controld.pcmk and getting ocfs2 DLM
handling up to the times with respect to DLM (>=4.0.1) and corosync
(2.3.x). AFAIK, cman also is being phased out for a unified corosync
cluster stack.
fs/dlm performs all the functions with respect to fencing and node
management and provides the API's to do so for ocfs2. For all future
references, DLM stands for fs/dlm code.
The advantages are:
+ No need to run an additional userspace daemon (ocfs2_controld)
+ No contrrold devince handling and controld protocol
+ Shifting responsibilities of node management to DLM layer
For backward compatibility, we are keeping the controld handling code.
Once enough time has passed we can remove a significant portion of the
code.
This feature requires modification in the userspace ocfs2-tools. The
changes can be found at: https://github.com/goldwynr/ocfs2-tools branch:
nocontrold Currently, not many checks are present in the userspace code,
but that would change soon.
These changes were developed on linux-stable 3.11.y. However, the changes
are applicable to the current upstream as well. If you wish to give the
entire kernel a spin, the link is:
