* hugetlb: fix infinite loop in get_futex_key() when backed by huge pagesMel Gorman2010-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a futex key happens to be located within a huge page mapped MAP_PRIVATE, get_futex_key() can go into an infinite loop waiting for a page->mapping that will never exist. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=552257 for more details about the problem. This patch makes page->mapping a poisoned value that includes PAGE_MAPPING_ANON mapped MAP_PRIVATE. This is enough for futex to continue but because of PAGE_MAPPING_ANON, the poisoned value is not dereferenced or used by futex. No other part of the VM should be dereferencing the page->mapping of a hugetlbfs page as its page cache is not on the LRU. This patch fixes the problem with the test case described in the bugzilla.

* include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

We do this via make_coherent() by making the pages uncacheable. This used to work fine, until we allowed highmem with highpte - we now have a page table which is mapped as required, and is not available for modification via update_mmu_cache(). Ralf Beache suggested getting rid of the PTE value passed to update_mmu_cache(): On MIPS update_mmu_cache() calls __update_tlb() which walks pagetables to construct a pointer to the pte again. Passing a pte_t * is much more elegant. Maybe we might even replace the pte argument with the pte_t? Ben Herrenschmidt would also like the pte pointer for PowerPC: Passing the ptep in there is exactly what I want. I want that -instead- of the PTE value, because I have issue on some ppc cases, for I$/D$ coherency, where set_pte_at() may decide to mask out the _PAGE_EXEC. So, pass in the mapped page table pointer into update_mmu_cache(), and remove the PTE value, updating all implementations and call sites to suit.

* hugetlb: acquire the i_mmap_lock before walking the prio_tree to unmap a pageMel Gorman2009-12-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the owner of a mapping fails COW because a child process is holding a reference, the children VMAs are walked and the page is unmapped. The i_mmap_lock is taken for the unmapping of the page but not the walking of the prio_tree. In theory, that tree could be changing if the lock is not held.

However, earlier in the that function, it's also possible to call into the page allocator with the same spinlock held. What this patch does is drop the spinlock before the page allocator is potentially entered. The check for page allocation failure can be made without the page_table_lock as well as the copy of the huge page. Even if the PTE changed while the spinlock was held, the consequence is that a huge page is copied unnecessarily. This resolves both the double taking of the lock and sleeping with the spinlock held.

* mm: add gfp flags for NODEMASK_ALLOC slab allocationsDavid Rientjes2009-12-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Objects passed to NODEMASK_ALLOC() are relatively small in size and are backed by slab caches that are not of large order, traditionally never greater than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER. Thus, using GFP_KERNEL for these allocations on large machines when CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT > 8 will cause the page allocator to loop endlessly in the allocation attempt, each time invoking both direct reclaim or the oom killer. This is of particular interest when using NODEMASK_ALLOC() from a mempolicy context (either directly in mm/mempolicy.c or the mempolicy constrained hugetlb allocations) since the oom killer always kills current when allocations are constrained by mempolicies. So for all present use cases in the kernel, current would end up being oom killed when direct reclaim fails. That would allow the NODEMASK_ALLOC() to succeed but current would have sacrificed itself upon returning. This patch adds gfp flags to NODEMASK_ALLOC() to pass to kmalloc() on CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT > 8; this parameter is a nop on other configurations. All current use cases either directly from hugetlb code or indirectly via NODEMASK_SCRATCH() union __GFP_NORETRY to avoid direct reclaim and the oom killer when the slab allocator needs to allocate additional pages. The side-effect of this change is that all current use cases of either NODEMASK_ALLOC() or NODEMASK_SCRATCH() need appropriate -ENOMEM handling when the allocation fails (never for CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT <= 8). All current use cases were audited and do have appropriate error handling at this time.

* hugetlb: derive huge pages nodes allowed from task mempolicyLee Schermerhorn2009-12-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch derives a "nodes_allowed" node mask from the numa mempolicy of the task modifying the number of persistent huge pages to control the allocation, freeing and adjusting of surplus huge pages when the pool page count is modified via the new sysctl or sysfs attribute "nr_hugepages_mempolicy". The nodes_allowed mask is derived as follows: * For "default" [NULL] task mempolicy, a NULL nodemask_t pointer is produced. This will cause the hugetlb subsystem to use node_online_map as the "nodes_allowed". This preserves the behavior before this patch. * For "preferred" mempolicy, including explicit local allocation, a nodemask with the single preferred node will be produced. "local" policy will NOT track any internode migrations of the task adjusting nr_hugepages. * For "bind" and "interleave" policy, the mempolicy's nodemask will be used. * Other than to inform the construction of the nodes_allowed node mask, the actual mempolicy mode is ignored. That is, all modes behave like interleave over the resulting nodes_allowed mask with no "fallback". See the updated documentation [next patch] for more information about the implications of this patch. Examples: Starting with: Node 0 HugePages_Total: 0 Node 1 HugePages_Total: 0 Node 2 HugePages_Total: 0 Node 3 HugePages_Total: 0 Default behavior [with or without this patch] balances persistent hugepage allocation across nodes [with sufficient contiguous memory]: sysctl vm.nr_hugepages[_mempolicy]=32 yields: Node 0 HugePages_Total: 8 Node 1 HugePages_Total: 8 Node 2 HugePages_Total: 8 Node 3 HugePages_Total: 8 Of course, we only have nr_hugepages_mempolicy with the patch, but with default mempolicy, nr_hugepages_mempolicy behaves the same as nr_hugepages. Applying mempolicy--e.g., with numactl [using '-m' a.k.a. '--membind' because it allows multiple nodes to be specified and it's easy to type]--we can allocate huge pages on individual nodes or sets of nodes. So, starting from the condition above, with 8 huge pages per node, add 8 more to node 2 using: numactl -m 2 sysctl vm.nr_hugepages_mempolicy=40 This yields: Node 0 HugePages_Total: 8 Node 1 HugePages_Total: 8 Node 2 HugePages_Total: 16 Node 3 HugePages_Total: 8 The incremental 8 huge pages were restricted to node 2 by the specified mempolicy. Similarly, we can use mempolicy to free persistent huge pages from specified nodes: numactl -m 0,1 sysctl vm.nr_hugepages_mempolicy=32 yields: Node 0 HugePages_Total: 4 Node 1 HugePages_Total: 4 Node 2 HugePages_Total: 16 Node 3 HugePages_Total: 8 The 8 huge pages freed were balanced over nodes 0 and 1.

Note that this method of updating the global hstate nr_hugepages under the constraint of a nodemask simplifies keeping the global state consistent--especially the number of persistent and surplus pages relative to reservations and overcommit limits. There are undoubtedly other ways to do this, but this works for both interfaces: mempolicy and per node attributes.

Then, whereas prior to this patch we unconditionally called hstate_next_node_to_{alloc|free}(), whether or not we successfully allocated/freed a huge page on the node, now we only call these functions on failure to alloc/free to advance to next allowed node. Factor out the next_node_allowed() function to handle wrap at end of node_online_map. In this version, the allowed nodes include all of the online nodes.

But we know that a fault would serve up zeroes, unless there's already a hugetlbfs pagecache page to back the range. (Alternatively, since hugetlb pages aren't swapped out under pressure, you could save more dump space by arguing that a page not yet faulted into this process cannot be relevant to the dump; but that would be more surprising.)

* hugetlb: restore interleaving of bootmem huge pagesLee Schermerhorn2009-09-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I noticed that alloc_bootmem_huge_page() will only advance to the next node on failure to allocate a huge page, potentially filling nodes with huge-pages. I asked about this on linux-mm and linux-numa, cc'ing the usual huge page suspects. Mel Gorman responded: I strongly suspect that the same node being used until allocation failure instead of round-robin is an oversight and not deliberate at all. It appears to be a side-effect of a fix made way back in commit 63b4613c3f0d4b724ba259dc6c201bb68b884e1a ["hugetlb: fix hugepage allocation with memoryless nodes"]. Prior to that patch it looked like allocations would always round-robin even when allocation was successful. This patch--factored out of my "hugetlb mempolicy" series--moves the advance of the hstate next node from which to allocate up before the test for success of the attempted allocation. Note that alloc_bootmem_huge_page() is only used for order > MAX_ORDER huge pages. I'll post a separate patch for mainline/stable, as the above mentioned "balance freeing" series renamed the next node to alloc function.

This is because hugetlb_unreserve_pages() is unconditionally removing blocks_per_huge_page(h) on each call rather than using the freed amount. If there were 0 blocks, it goes negative, resulting in the above. This is a regression from commit a5516438959d90b071ff0a484ce4f3f523dc3152 ("hugetlb: modular state for hugetlb page size") which did: - inode->i_blocks -= BLOCKS_PER_HUGEPAGE * freed; + inode->i_blocks -= blocks_per_huge_page(h); so just put back the freed multiplier, and it's all happy again.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fast paths num_online_nodes() is called in a number of places but most often by the page allocator when deciding whether the zonelist needs to be filtered based on cpusets or the zonelist cache.

* mm: account for MAP_SHARED mappings using VM_MAYSHARE and not VM_SHARED in ↵Mel Gorman2009-05-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | hugetlbfs Addresses http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13302 hugetlbfs reserves huge pages but does not fault them at mmap() time to ensure that future faults succeed. The reservation behaviour differs depending on whether the mapping was mapped MAP_SHARED or MAP_PRIVATE. For MAP_SHARED mappings, hugepages are reserved when mmap() is first called and are tracked based on information associated with the inode. Other processes mapping MAP_SHARED use the same reservation. MAP_PRIVATE track the reservations based on the VMA created as part of the mmap() operation. Each process mapping MAP_PRIVATE must make its own reservation. hugetlbfs currently checks if a VMA is MAP_SHARED with the VM_SHARED flag and not VM_MAYSHARE. For file-backed mappings, such as hugetlbfs, VM_SHARED is set only if the mapping is MAP_SHARED and the file was opened read-write. If a shared memory mapping was mapped shared-read-write for populating of data and mapped shared-read-only by other processes, then hugetlbfs would account for the mapping as if it was MAP_PRIVATE. This causes processes to fail to map the file MAP_SHARED even though it should succeed as the reservation is there. This patch alters mm/hugetlb.c and replaces VM_SHARED with VM_MAYSHARE when the intent of the code was to check whether the VMA was mapped MAP_SHARED or MAP_PRIVATE.

* Do not account for hugetlbfs quota at mmap() time if mapping [SHM|MAP]_NORESERVEMel Gorman2009-02-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 5a6fe125950676015f5108fb71b2a67441755003 brought hugetlbfs more in line with the core VM by obeying VM_NORESERVE and not reserving hugepages for both shared and private mappings when [SHM|MAP]_NORESERVE are specified. However, it is still taking filesystem quota unconditionally. At fault time, if there are no reserves and attempt is made to allocate the page and account for filesystem quota. If either fail, the fault fails. The impact is that quota is getting accounted for twice. This patch partially reverts 5a6fe125950676015f5108fb71b2a67441755003.

* Do not account for the address space used by hugetlbfs using VM_ACCOUNTMel Gorman2009-02-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When overcommit is disabled, the core VM accounts for pages used by anonymous shared, private mappings and special mappings. It keeps track of VMAs that should be accounted for with VM_ACCOUNT and VMAs that never had a reserve with VM_NORESERVE. Overcommit for hugetlbfs is much riskier than overcommit for base pages due to contiguity requirements. It avoids overcommiting on both shared and private mappings using reservation counters that are checked and updated during mmap(). This ensures (within limits) that hugepages exist in the future when faults occurs or it is too easy to applications to be SIGKILLed. As hugetlbfs makes its own reservations of a different unit to the base page size, VM_ACCOUNT should never be set. Even if the units were correct, we would double account for the usage in the core VM and hugetlbfs. VM_NORESERVE may be set because an application can request no reserves be made for hugetlbfs at the risk of getting killed later. With commit fc8744adc870a8d4366908221508bb113d8b72ee, VM_NORESERVE and VM_ACCOUNT are getting unconditionally set for hugetlbfs-backed mappings. This breaks the accounting for both the core VM and hugetlbfs, can trigger an OOM storm when hugepage pools are too small lockups and corrupted counters otherwise are used. This patch brings hugetlbfs more in line with how the core VM treats VM_NORESERVE but prevents VM_ACCOUNT being set.

* hugetlbfs: handle pages higher order than MAX_ORDERAndy Whitcroft2008-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When working with hugepages, hugetlbfs assumes that those hugepages are smaller than MAX_ORDER. Specifically it assumes that the mem_map is contigious and uses that to optimise access to the elements of the mem_map that represent the hugepage. Gigantic pages (such as 16GB pages on powerpc) by definition are of greater order than MAX_ORDER (larger than MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES in size). This means that we can no longer make use of the buddy alloctor guarentees for the contiguity of the mem_map, which ensures that the mem_map is at least contigious for maximmally aligned areas of MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES pages. This patch adds new mem_map accessors and iterator helpers which handle any discontiguity at MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES boundaries. It then uses these to implement gigantic page versions of copy_huge_page and clear_huge_page, and to allow follow_hugetlb_page handle gigantic pages.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Presently hugepage doesn't use zero page at all because zero page is only used for coredumping and hugepage can't core dump. However we have now implemented hugepage coredumping. Therefore we should implement the zero page of hugepage. Implementation note: o Why do we only check VM_SHARED for zero page? normal page checked as .. static inline int use_zero_page(struct vm_area_struct *vma) { if (vma->vm_flags & (VM_LOCKED | VM_SHARED)) return 0; return !vma->vm_ops || !vma->vm_ops->fault; } First, hugepages are never mlock()ed. We aren't concerned with VM_LOCKED. Second, hugetlbfs is a pseudo filesystem, not a real filesystem and it doesn't have any file backing. Thus ops->fault checking is meaningless. o Why don't we use zero page if !pte. !pte indicate {pud, pmd} doesn't exist or some error happened. So we shouldn't return zero page if any error occurred.

The latter includes tmpfs. The advantage of doing this is that the VM will not have to scan over lots of anonymous pages (which we generally do not want to swap out), just to find the page cache pages that it should evict. This patch has the infrastructure and a basic policy to balance how much we scan the anon lists and how much we scan the file lists. The big policy changes are in separate patches.

* hugetlb: handle updating of ACCESSED and DIRTY in hugetlb_fault()David Gibson2008-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The page fault path for normal pages, if the fault is neither a no-page fault nor a write-protect fault, will update the DIRTY and ACCESSED bits in the page table appropriately. The hugepage fault path, however, does not do this, handling only no-page or write-protect type faults. It assumes that either the ACCESSED and DIRTY bits are irrelevant for hugepages (usually true, since they are never swapped) or that they are handled by the arch code. This is inconvenient for some software-loaded TLB architectures, where the _PAGE_ACCESSED (_PAGE_DIRTY) bits need to be set to enable read (write) access to the page at the TLB miss. This could be worked around in the arch TLB miss code, but the TLB miss fast path can be made simple more easily if the hugetlb_fault() path handles this, as the normal page fault path does.

* hugetlbfs: allocate structures for reservation tracking outside of spinlocksAndy Whitcroft2008-08-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the normal case, hugetlbfs reserves hugepages at map time so that the pages exist for future faults. A struct file_region is used to track when reservations have been consumed and where. These file_regions are allocated as necessary with kmalloc() which can sleep with the mm->page_table_lock held. This is wrong and triggers may-sleep warning when PREEMPT is enabled. Updates to the underlying file_region are done in two phases. The first phase prepares the region for the change, allocating any necessary memory, without actually making the change. The second phase actually commits the change. This patch makes use of this by checking the reservations before the page_table_lock is taken; triggering any necessary allocations. This may then be safely repeated within the locks without any allocations being required. Credit to Mel Gorman for diagnosing this failure and initial versions of the patch.
