2012-03-22thp: allow a hwpoisoned head page to be put back to LRUDean Nelson2-1/+21
Andrea Arcangeli pointed out to me that a check in __memory_failure() which was intended to prevent THP tail pages from being checked for the absence of the PG_lru flag (something that is always the case), was also preventing THP head pages from being checked. A THP head page could actually benefit from the call to shake_page() by ending up being put back to a LRU, provided it had been waiting in a pagevec array. Andrea suggested that the "!PageTransCompound(p)" in the if-statement should be replaced by a "!PageTransTail(p)", thus allowing THP head pages to be checked and possibly shaken.

2012-03-22mm, oom: force oom kill on sysrq+fDavid Rientjes4-10/+13
The oom killer chooses not to kill a thread if: - an eligible thread has already been oom killed and has yet to exit, and - an eligible thread is exiting but has yet to free all its memory and is not the thread attempting to currently allocate memory. SysRq+F manually invokes the global oom killer to kill a memory-hogging task. This is normally done as a last resort to free memory when no progress is being made or to test the oom killer itself. For both uses, we always want to kill a thread and never defer. This patch causes SysRq+F to always kill an eligible thread and can be used to force a kill even if another oom killed thread has failed to exit.

2012-03-22procfs: mark thread stack correctly in proc/<pid>/mapsSiddhesh Poyarekar7-63/+313
Stack for a new thread is mapped by userspace code and passed via sys_clone. This memory is currently seen as anonymous in /proc/<pid>/maps, which makes it difficult to ascertain which mappings are being used for thread stacks. This patch uses the individual task stack pointers to determine which vmas are actually thread stacks. For a multithreaded program like the following: #include <pthread.h> void *thread_main(void *foo) { while(1); } int main() { pthread_t t; pthread_create(&t, NULL, thread_main, NULL); pthread_join(t, NULL); } proc/PID/maps looks like the following: 00400000-00401000 r-xp 00000000 fd:0a 3671804 /home/siddhesh/a.out 00600000-00601000 rw-p 00000000 fd:0a 3671804 /home/siddhesh/a.out 019ef000-01a10000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [heap] 7f8a44491000-7f8a44492000 ---p 00000000 00:00 0 7f8a44492000-7f8a44c92000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7f8a44c92000-7f8a44e3d000 r-xp 00000000 fd:00 2097482 /lib64/libc-2.14.90.so 7f8a44e3d000-7f8a4503d000 ---p 001ab000 fd:00 2097482 /lib64/libc-2.14.90.so 7f8a4503d000-7f8a45041000 r--p 001ab000 fd:00 2097482 /lib64/libc-2.14.90.so 7f8a45041000-7f8a45043000 rw-p 001af000 fd:00 2097482 /lib64/libc-2.14.90.so 7f8a45043000-7f8a45048000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7f8a45048000-7f8a4505f000 r-xp 00000000 fd:00 2099938 /lib64/libpthread-2.14.90.so 7f8a4505f000-7f8a4525e000 ---p 00017000 fd:00 2099938 /lib64/libpthread-2.14.90.so 7f8a4525e000-7f8a4525f000 r--p 00016000 fd:00 2099938 /lib64/libpthread-2.14.90.so 7f8a4525f000-7f8a45260000 rw-p 00017000 fd:00 2099938 /lib64/libpthread-2.14.90.so 7f8a45260000-7f8a45264000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7f8a45264000-7f8a45286000 r-xp 00000000 fd:00 2097348 /lib64/ld-2.14.90.so 7f8a45457000-7f8a4545a000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7f8a45484000-7f8a45485000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7f8a45485000-7f8a45486000 r--p 00021000 fd:00 2097348 /lib64/ld-2.14.90.so 7f8a45486000-7f8a45487000 rw-p 00022000 fd:00 2097348 /lib64/ld-2.14.90.so 7f8a45487000-7f8a45488000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7fff6273b000-7fff6275c000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack] 7fff627ff000-7fff62800000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] ffffffffff600000-ffffffffff601000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vsyscall] Here, one could guess that 7f8a44492000-7f8a44c92000 is a stack since the earlier vma that has no permissions (7f8a44e3d000-7f8a4503d000) but that is not always a reliable way to find out which vma is a thread stack. Also, /proc/PID/maps and /proc/PID/task/TID/maps has the same content. With this patch in place, /proc/PID/task/TID/maps are treated as 'maps as the task would see it' and hence, only the vma that that task uses as stack is marked as [stack]. All other 'stack' vmas are marked as anonymous memory. /proc/PID/maps acts as a thread group level view, where all thread stack vmas are marked as [stack:TID] where TID is the process ID of the task that uses that vma as stack, while the process stack is marked as [stack].

To achieve that, firstly updating reclaim stat is delayed until the putback stage, after reacquiring the lru lock. Secondly, operations related to vm and zone stats are now proteced with preemption disabled as they are per-cpu operations.

2012-03-22mm: vmscan: forcibly scan highmem if there are too many buffer_heads pinning ↵Mel Gorman1-13/+29
highmem Stuart Foster reported on bugzilla that copying large amounts of data from NTFS caused an OOM kill on 32-bit X86 with 16G of memory. Andrew Morton correctly identified that the problem was NTFS was using 512 blocks meaning each page had 8 buffer_heads in low memory pinning it. In the past, direct reclaim used to scan highmem even if the allocating process did not specify __GFP_HIGHMEM but not any more. kswapd no longer will reclaim from zones that are above the high watermark. The intention in both cases was to minimise unnecessary reclaim. The downside is on machines with large amounts of highmem that lowmem can be fully consumed by buffer_heads with nothing trying to free them. The following patch is based on a suggestion by Andrew Morton to extend the buffer_heads_over_limit case to force kswapd and direct reclaim to scan the highmem zone regardless of the allocation request or watermarks.

2012-03-22thp: optimize away unnecessary page table lockingNaoya Horiguchi3-114/+101
Currently when we check if we can handle thp as it is or we need to split it into regular sized pages, we hold page table lock prior to check whether a given pmd is mapping thp or not. Because of this, when it's not "huge pmd" we suffer from unnecessary lock/unlock overhead. To remove it, this patch introduces a optimized check function and replace several similar logics with it.

Nor have I reached any conclusion as to whether it's important for kswapd to do that draining or not. But so as not to get blocked on this, with lockdep disabled from giving further reports, here's a patch which removes the lru_add_drain_all() from kswapd's callpath (and calls it only once from compact_nodes(), instead of once per node).

2012-03-22vmscan: only defer compaction for failed order and higherRik van Riel5-8/+27
Currently a failed order-9 (transparent hugepage) compaction can lead to memory compaction being temporarily disabled for a memory zone. Even if we only need compaction for an order 2 allocation, eg. for jumbo frames networking. The fix is relatively straightforward: keep track of the highest order at which compaction is succeeding, and only defer compaction for orders at which compaction is failing.

With CONFIG_COMPACTION enabled, kswapd does not try to free contiguous free pages, even when it is woken for a higher order request. This could be bad for eg. jumbo frame network allocations, which are done from interrupt context and cannot compact memory themselves. Higher than before allocation failure rates in the network receive path have been observed in kernels with compaction enabled. Teach kswapd to defragment the memory zones in a node, but only if required and compaction is not deferred in a zone.

When built with CONFIG_COMPACTION, kswapd should not try to free contiguous pages, because it is not trying hard enough to have a real chance at being successful, but still disrupts the LRU enough to break other things. Do not do higher order page isolation unless we really are in lumpy reclaim mode. Stop reclaiming pages once we have enough free pages that compaction can deal with things, and we hit the normal order 0 watermarks used by kswapd. Also remove a line of code that increments balanced right before exiting the function.

2012-03-22mm: make swapin readahead skip over holesRik van Riel3-66/+11
Ever since abandoning the virtual scan of processes, for scalability reasons, swap space has been a little more fragmented than before. This can lead to the situation where a large memory user is killed, swap space ends up full of "holes" and swapin readahead is totally ineffective. On my home system, after killing a leaky firefox it took over an hour to page just under 2GB of memory back in, slowing the virtual machines down to a crawl. This patch makes swapin readahead simply skip over holes, instead of stopping at them. This allows the system to swap things back in at rates of several MB/second, instead of a few hundred kB/second. The checks done in valid_swaphandles are already done in read_swap_cache_async as well, allowing us to remove a fair amount of code.

If a thread is chosen for oom kill and is already PF_EXITING, then the oom killer simply sets TIF_MEMDIE and returns. This allows the thread to have access to memory reserves so that it may quickly exit. This logic is preceeded with a comment saying there's no need to alarm the sysadmin. This patch adds truth to that statement. There's no need to emit any warning about the oom condition if the thread is already exiting since it will not be killed. In this condition, just silently return the oom killer since its only giving access to memory reserves and is otherwise a no-op.

oom_kill_task() returns non-zero iff the chosen process does not have any threads with an attached ->mm. In such a case, it's better to just return to the page allocator and retry the allocation because memory could have been freed in the interim and the oom condition may no longer exist. It's unnecessary to loop in the oom killer and find another thread to kill. This allows both oom_kill_task() and oom_kill_process() to be converted to void functions. If the oom condition persists, the oom killer will be recalled.

As described in commit e6fa16ab9c1e ("signal: sigprocmask() should do retarget_shared_pending()") the modification of current->blocked is incorrect as we need to check whether the signal we're about to block is pending in the shared queue. Also, use the new helper function introduced in commit 5e6292c0f28f ("signal: add block_sigmask() for adding sigmask to current->blocked") which centralises the code for updating current->blocked after successfully delivering a signal and reduces the amount of duplicate code across architectures.

Furthermore, because we were modifying ka->sa.sa_handler (which is a copy of sighand->action[]) instead of sighand->action[] the original code actually had no effect on signal delivery.

2012-03-22seq_file: fix mishandling of consecutive pread() invocations.Earl Chew1-13/+15
The following program illustrates the problem: char buf[8192]; int fd = open("/proc/self/maps", O_RDONLY); n = pread(fd, buf, sizeof(buf), 0); printf("%d\n", n); /* lseek(fd, 0, SEEK_CUR); */ /* Uncomment to work around */ n = pread(fd, buf, sizeof(buf), 0); printf("%d\n", n); The second printf() prints zero, but uncommenting the lseek() corrects its behaviour. To fix, make seq_read() mirror seq_lseek() when processing changes in *ppos. Restore m->version first, then if required traverse and update read_pos on success.

2012-03-22mm: thp: fix pmd_bad() triggering in code paths holding mmap_sem read modeAndrea Arcangeli9-10/+92
In some cases it may happen that pmd_none_or_clear_bad() is called with the mmap_sem hold in read mode. In those cases the huge page faults can allocate hugepmds under pmd_none_or_clear_bad() and that can trigger a false positive from pmd_bad() that will not like to see a pmd materializing as trans huge. It's not khugepaged causing the problem, khugepaged holds the mmap_sem in write mode (and all those sites must hold the mmap_sem in read mode to prevent pagetables to go away from under them, during code review it seems vm86 mode on 32bit kernels requires that too unless it's restricted to 1 thread per process or UP builds). The race is only with the huge pagefaults that can convert a pmd_none() into a pmd_trans_huge(). Effectively all these pmd_none_or_clear_bad() sites running with mmap_sem in read mode are somewhat speculative with the page faults, and the result is always undefined when they run simultaneously. This is probably why it wasn't common to run into this. For example if the madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) runs zap_page_range() shortly before the page fault, the hugepage will not be zapped, if the page fault runs first it will be zapped. Altering pmd_bad() not to error out if it finds hugepmds won't be enough to fix this, because zap_pmd_range would then proceed to call zap_pte_range (which would be incorrect if the pmd become a pmd_trans_huge()). The simplest way to fix this is to read the pmd in the local stack (regardless of what we read, no need of actual CPU barriers, only compiler barrier needed), and be sure it is not changing under the code that computes its value. Even if the real pmd is changing under the value we hold on the stack, we don't care. If we actually end up in zap_pte_range it means the pmd was not none already and it was not huge, and it can't become huge from under us (khugepaged locking explained above). All we need is to enforce that there is no way anymore that in a code path like below, pmd_trans_huge can be false, but pmd_none_or_clear_bad can run into a hugepmd. The overhead of a barrier() is just a compiler tweak and should not be measurable (I only added it for THP builds). I don't exclude different compiler versions may have prevented the race too by caching the value of *pmd on the stack (that hasn't been verified, but it wouldn't be impossible considering pmd_none_or_clear_bad, pmd_bad, pmd_trans_huge, pmd_none are all inlines and there's no external function called in between pmd_trans_huge and pmd_none_or_clear_bad). if (pmd_trans_huge(*pmd)) { if (next-addr != HPAGE_PMD_SIZE) { VM_BUG_ON(!rwsem_is_locked(&tlb->mm->mmap_sem)); split_huge_page_pmd(vma->vm_mm, pmd); } else if (zap_huge_pmd(tlb, vma, pmd, addr)) continue; /* fall through */ } if (pmd_none_or_clear_bad(pmd)) Because this race condition could be exercised without special privileges this was reported in CVE-2012-1179. The race was identified and fully explained by Ulrich who debugged it. I'm quoting his accurate explanation below, for reference. ====== start quote ======= mapcount 0 page_mapcount 1 kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:1384! At some point prior to the panic, a "bad pmd ..." message similar to the following is logged on the console: mm/memory.c:145: bad pmd ffff8800376e1f98(80000000314000e7). The "bad pmd ..." message is logged by pmd_clear_bad() before it clears the page's PMD table entry. 143 void pmd_clear_bad(pmd_t *pmd) 144 { -> 145 pmd_ERROR(*pmd); 146 pmd_clear(pmd); 147 } After the PMD table entry has been cleared, there is an inconsistency between the actual number of PMD table entries that are mapping the page and the page's map count (_mapcount field in struct page). When the page is subsequently reclaimed, __split_huge_page() detects this inconsistency. 1381 if (mapcount != page_mapcount(page)) 1382 printk(KERN_ERR "mapcount %d page_mapcount %d\n", 1383 mapcount, page_mapcount(page)); -> 1384 BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page)); The root cause of the problem is a race of two threads in a multithreaded process. Thread B incurs a page fault on a virtual address that has never been accessed (PMD entry is zero) while Thread A is executing an madvise() system call on a virtual address within the same 2 MB (huge page) range. virtual address space .---------------------. | | | | .-|---------------------| | | | | | |<-- B(fault) | | | 2 MB | |/////////////////////|-. huge < |/////////////////////| > A(range) page | |/////////////////////|-' | | | | | | '-|---------------------| | | | | '---------------------' - Thread A is executing an madvise(..., MADV_DONTNEED) system call on the virtual address range "A(range)" shown in the picture. sys_madvise // Acquire the semaphore in shared mode. down_read(&current->mm->mmap_sem) ... madvise_vma switch (behavior) case MADV_DONTNEED: madvise_dontneed zap_page_range unmap_vmas unmap_page_range zap_pud_range zap_pmd_range // // Assume that this huge page has never been accessed. // I.e. content of the PMD entry is zero (not mapped). // if (pmd_trans_huge(*pmd)) { // We don't get here due to the above assumption. } // // Assume that Thread B incurred a page fault and .---------> // sneaks in here as shown below. | // | if (pmd_none_or_clear_bad(pmd)) | { | if (unlikely(pmd_bad(*pmd))) | pmd_clear_bad | { | pmd_ERROR | // Log "bad pmd ..." message here. | pmd_clear | // Clear the page's PMD entry. | // Thread B incremented the map count | // in page_add_new_anon_rmap(), but | // now the page is no longer mapped | // by a PMD entry (-> inconsistency). | } | } | v - Thread B is handling a page fault on virtual address "B(fault)" shown in the picture. ... do_page_fault __do_page_fault // Acquire the semaphore in shared mode. down_read_trylock(&mm->mmap_sem) ... handle_mm_fault if (pmd_none(*pmd) && transparent_hugepage_enabled(vma)) // We get here due to the above assumption (PMD entry is zero). do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page alloc_hugepage_vma // Allocate a new transparent huge page here. ... __do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page ... spin_lock(&mm->page_table_lock) ... page_add_new_anon_rmap // Here we increment the page's map count (starts at -1). atomic_set(&page->_mapcount, 0) set_pmd_at // Here we set the page's PMD entry which will be cleared // when Thread A calls pmd_clear_bad(). ... spin_unlock(&mm->page_table_lock) The mmap_sem does not prevent the race because both threads are acquiring it in shared mode (down_read). Thread B holds the page_table_lock while the page's map count and PMD table entry are updated. However, Thread A does not synchronize on that lock. ====== end quote ======= [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] Reported-by: Ulrich Obergfell <uobergfe@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com> Acked-by: Larry Woodman <lwoodman@redhat.com> Acked-by: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> [2.6.38+] Cc: Mark Salter <msalter@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
