mm: memcg: per-priority per-zone hierarchy scan generations

Memory cgroup limit reclaim currently picks one memory cgroup out of the
target hierarchy, remembers it as the last scanned child, and reclaims
all zones in it with decreasing priority levels.

The new hierarchy reclaim code will pick memory cgroups from the same
hierarchy concurrently from different zones and priority levels, it
becomes necessary that hierarchy roots not only remember the last
scanned child, but do so for each zone and priority level.

Until now, we reclaimed memcgs like this:

    mem = mem_cgroup_iter(root)
    for each priority level:
      for each zone in zonelist:
        reclaim(mem, zone)

But subsequent patches will move the memcg iteration inside the loop
over the zones:

    for each priority level:
      for each zone in zonelist:
        mem = mem_cgroup_iter(root)
        reclaim(mem, zone)

And to keep with the original scan order - memcg -> priority -> zone -
the last scanned memcg has to be remembered per zone and per priority
level.

Furthermore, global reclaim will be switched to the hierarchy walk as
well.  Different from limit reclaim, which can just recheck the limit
after some reclaim progress, its target is to scan all memcgs for the
desired zone pages, proportional to the memcg size, and so reliably
detecting a full hierarchy round-trip will become crucial.

Currently, the code relies on one reclaimer encountering the same memcg
twice, but that is error-prone with concurrent reclaimers.  Instead, use
a generation counter that is increased every time the child with the
highest ID has been visited, so that reclaimers can stop when the
generation changes.

mm: vmscan: distinguish global reclaim from global LRU scanning

The traditional zone reclaim code is scanning the per-zone LRU lists
during direct reclaim and kswapd, and the per-zone per-memory cgroup LRU
lists when reclaiming on behalf of a memory cgroup limit.

Subsequent patches will convert the traditional reclaim code to reclaim

the predicate for which LRU list is scanned will no longer be
appropriate to tell global reclaim from limit reclaim.

This patch adds a global_reclaim() predicate to tell direct/kswapd

mm: memcg: consolidate hierarchy iteration primitives

The memcg naturalization series:

Memory control groups are currently bolted onto the side of
traditional memory management in places where better integration would
be preferrable.  To reclaim memory, for example, memory control groups
maintain their own LRU list and reclaim strategy aside from the global
per-zone LRU list reclaim.  But an extra list head for each existing
page frame is expensive and maintaining it requires additional code.

This patchset disables the global per-zone LRU lists on memory cgroup
configurations and converts all its users to operate on the per-memory
cgroup lists instead.  As LRU pages are then exclusively on one list,

12 years agomemcg: add mem_cgroup_replace_page_cache() to fix LRU issue
KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki [Fri, 13 Jan 2012 01:17:44 +0000 (17:17 -0800)]
memcg: add mem_cgroup_replace_page_cache() to fix LRU issue

Commit ef6a3c6311 ("mm: add replace_page_cache_page() function") added a
function replace_page_cache_page().  This function replaces a page in the
radix-tree with a new page.  WHen doing this, memory cgroup needs to fix
up the accounting information.  memcg need to check PCG_USED bit etc.

In some(many?) cases, 'newpage' is on LRU before calling
replace_page_cache().  So, memcg's LRU accounting information should be
fixed, too.

This patch adds mem_cgroup_replace_page_cache() and removes the old hooks.
 In that function, old pages will be unaccounted without touching
res_counter and new page will be accounted to the memcg (of old page).
WHen overwriting pc->mem_cgroup of newpage, take zone->lru_lock and avoid
races with LRU handling.

Background:
  replace_page_cache_page() is called by FUSE code in its splice() handling.
  Here, 'newpage' is replacing oldpage but this newpage is not a newly allocated
  page and may be on LRU. LRU mis-accounting will be critical for memory cgroup
  because rmdir() checks the whole LRU is empty and there is no account leak.
  If a page is on the other LRU than it should be, rmdir() will fail.

This bug was added in March 2011, but no bug report yet.  I guess there
are not many people who use memcg and FUSE at the same time with upstream
kernels.

The result of this bug is that admin cannot destroy a memcg because of
account leak.  So, no panic, no deadlock.  And, even if an active cgroup
exist, umount can succseed.  So no problem at shutdown.

12 years agoepoll: limit paths
Jason Baron [Fri, 13 Jan 2012 01:17:43 +0000 (17:17 -0800)]
epoll: limit paths

The current epoll code can be tickled to run basically indefinitely in
both loop detection path check (on ep_insert()), and in the wakeup paths.
The programs that tickle this behavior set up deeply linked networks of
epoll file descriptors that cause the epoll algorithms to traverse them
indefinitely.  A couple of these sample programs have been previously
posted in this thread: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/2/25/297.

To fix the loop detection path check algorithms, I simply keep track of
the epoll nodes that have been already visited.  Thus, the loop detection
becomes proportional to the number of epoll file descriptor and links.
This dramatically decreases the run-time of the loop check algorithm.  In
one diabolical case I tried it reduced the run-time from 15 mintues (all
in kernel time) to .3 seconds.

Fixing the wakeup paths could be done at wakeup time in a similar manner
by keeping track of nodes that have already been visited, but the
complexity is harder, since there can be multiple wakeups on different
cpus...Thus, I've opted to limit the number of possible wakeup paths when
the paths are created.

This is accomplished, by noting that the end file descriptor points that
are found during the loop detection pass (from the newly added link), are
actually the sources for wakeup events.  I keep a list of these file
descriptors and limit the number and length of these paths that emanate
from these 'source file descriptors'.  In the current implemetation I
allow 1000 paths of length 1, 500 of length 2, 100 of length 3, 50 of
length 4 and 10 of length 5.  Note that it is sufficient to check the
'source file descriptors' reachable from the newly added link, since no
other 'source file descriptors' will have newly added links.  This allows
us to check only the wakeup paths that may have gotten too long, and not
re-check all possible wakeup paths on the system.

In terms of the path limit selection, I think its first worth noting that
the most common case for epoll, is probably the model where you have 1
epoll file descriptor that is monitoring n number of 'source file
descriptors'.  In this case, each 'source file descriptor' has a 1 path of
length 1.  Thus, I believe that the limits I'm proposing are quite
reasonable and in fact may be too generous.  Thus, I'm hoping that the
proposed limits will not prevent any workloads that currently work to
fail.

In terms of locking, I have extended the use of the 'epmutex' to all
epoll_ctl add and remove operations.  Currently its only used in a subset
of the add paths.  I need to hold the epmutex, so that we can correctly
traverse a coherent graph, to check the number of paths.  I believe that
this additional locking is probably ok, since its in the setup/teardown
paths, and doesn't affect the running paths, but it certainly is going to
add some extra overhead.  Also, worth noting is that the epmuex was
recently added to the ep_ctl add operations in the initial path loop
detection code using the argument that it was not on a critical path.

Another thing to note here, is the length of epoll chains that is allowed.
Currently, eventpoll.c defines:

/* Maximum number of nesting allowed inside epoll sets */
#define EP_MAX_NESTS 4

This basically means that I am limited to a graph depth of 5 (EP_MAX_NESTS
+ 1).  However, this limit is currently only enforced during the loop
check detection code, and only when the epoll file descriptors are added
in a certain order.  Thus, this limit is currently easily bypassed.  The
newly added check for wakeup paths, stricly limits the wakeup paths to a
length of 5, regardless of the order in which ep's are linked together.
Thus, a side-effect of the new code is a more consistent enforcement of
the graph depth.

Thus far, I've tested this, using the sample programs previously
mentioned, which now either return quickly or return -EINVAL.  I've also
testing using the piptest.c epoll tester, which showed no difference in
performance.  I've also created a number of different epoll networks and
tested that they behave as expectded.

I believe this solves the original diabolical test cases, while still
preserving the sane epoll nesting.

While implementing cmpxchg_double() on s390 I realized that we don't set
CONFIG_CMPXCHG_LOCAL despite the fact that we have support for it.

However setting that option will increase the size of struct page by
eight bytes on 64 bit, which we certainly do not want.  Also, it doesn't
make sense that a present cpu feature should increase the size of struct

Besides that it looks like the dependency to CMPXCHG_LOCAL is wrong and
that it should depend on CMPXCHG_DOUBLE instead.

This patch:

If an architecture supports CMPXCHG_LOCAL this shouldn't result
automatically in larger struct pages if the SLUB allocator is used.
Instead introduce a new config option "HAVE_ALIGNED_STRUCT_PAGE" which

This patch contains r8a7779 SMP support V3 - now including
CPU hotplug offine and online support. The r8a7779 power
domain code is tied together with SMP glue code which allows
us to control the power domains via CPU hotplug.

At this point the kernel boots with the 4 Cortex-A9 cores in
SMP mode and all CPU cores except CPU0 can be hotplugged.

The code in platsmp.c is quite far from pretty, but it is
kept like that intentionally to avoid creating layers of
code that will go away in the near future anyway. The code
needs to be updated when some per-SoC handling code will be
added to the ARM architecture, see the following patch for

Eric and David reported dead machines and traced it to commit
a195f004 ("sched: Fix load-balance lock-breaking"), it turns out
there's still a scenario where we can end up re-trying forever.

Since there is no strict forward progress guarantee in the
load-balance iteration we can get stuck re-retrying the same
task-set over and over.

Creating a forward progress guarantee with the existing

matter as the debugger will play with it, but it seems like not converting
the value currently being set is misleading.

Changelog:
Sep 20: Inspired by Oleg's suggestion, define map_cred_ns() helper to
simplify callers and help make clear what we are translating
        (which uid into which namespace).  Passing the target task would
make callers even easier to read, but we pass in user_ns because
current_user_ns() != task_cred_xxx(current, user_ns).
Sep 20: As recommended by Oleg, also put task_pid_vnr() under rcu_read_lock
in ptrace_signal().
Sep 23: In send_signal(), detect when (user) signal is coming from an
ancestor or unrelated user namespace.  Pass that on to __send_signal,
which sets si_uid to 0 or overflowuid if needed.
Oct 12: Base on Oleg's fixup_uid() patch.  On top of that, handle all
SI_FROMKERNEL cases at callers, because we can't assume sender is
current in those cases.

friends to take printf format string instead of opaque string and matching
varargs at the end.  The name is allocated together with the wq and
formatted.

alloc_ordered_workqueue() is converted to a macro to unify varargs
handling with alloc_workqueue(), and, while at it, add comment to
alloc_workqueue().

None of the current in-kernel users pass in string with '%' as constant

12 years agoprocfs: add hidepid= and gid= mount options
Vasiliy Kulikov [Tue, 10 Jan 2012 23:11:31 +0000 (15:11 -0800)]
procfs: add hidepid= and gid= mount options

Add support for mount options to restrict access to /proc/PID/
directories.  The default backward-compatible "relaxed" behaviour is left
untouched.

The first mount option is called "hidepid" and its value defines how much
info about processes we want to be available for non-owners:

hidepid=0 (default) means the old behavior - anybody may read all
world-readable /proc/PID/* files.

hidepid=1 means users may not access any /proc/<pid>/ directories, but
their own.  Sensitive files like cmdline, sched*, status are now protected
against other users.  As permission checking done in proc_pid_permission()
and files' permissions are left untouched, programs expecting specific
files' modes are not confused.

hidepid=2 means hidepid=1 plus all /proc/PID/ will be invisible to other
users.  It doesn't mean that it hides whether a process exists (it can be
learned by other means, e.g.  by kill -0 $PID), but it hides process' euid
and egid.  It compicates intruder's task of gathering info about running
processes, whether some daemon runs with elevated privileges, whether
another user runs some sensitive program, whether other users run any
program at all, etc.

gid=XXX defines a group that will be able to gather all processes' info
(as in hidepid=0 mode).  This group should be used instead of putting
nonroot user in sudoers file or something.  However, untrusted users (like
daemons, etc.) which are not supposed to monitor the tasks in the whole
system should not be added to the group.

hidepid=1 or higher is designed to restrict access to procfs files, which
might reveal some sensitive private information like precise keystrokes
timings:

http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2011/11/05/3

hidepid=1/2 doesn't break monitoring userspace tools.  ps, top, pgrep, and
conky gracefully handle EPERM/ENOENT and behave as if the current user is
the only user running processes.  pstree shows the process subtree which
contains "pstree" process.

Note: the patch doesn't deal with setuid/setgid issues of keeping
preopened descriptors of procfs files (like
https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/2/7/368).  We rely on that the leaked
information like the scheduling counters of setuid apps doesn't threaten
anybody's privacy - only the user started the setuid program may read the
counters.

Pavel Emelyanov [Tue, 10 Jan 2012 23:11:23 +0000 (15:11 -0800)]
procfs: introduce the /proc/<pid>/map_files/ directory

This one behaves similarly to the /proc/<pid>/fd/ one - it contains
symlinks one for each mapping with file, the name of a symlink is
"vma->vm_start-vma->vm_end", the target is the file.  Opening a symlink
results in a file that point exactly to the same inode as them vma's one.

For example the ls -l of some arbitrary /proc/<pid>/map_files/

 | lr-x------ 1 root root 64 Aug 26 06:40 7f8f80403000-7f8f80404000 -> /lib64/libc-2.5.so
 | lr-x------ 1 root root 64 Aug 26 06:40 7f8f8061e000-7f8f80620000 -> /lib64/libselinux.so.1
 | lr-x------ 1 root root 64 Aug 26 06:40 7f8f80826000-7f8f80827000 -> /lib64/libacl.so.1.1.0
 | lr-x------ 1 root root 64 Aug 26 06:40 7f8f80a2f000-7f8f80a30000 -> /lib64/librt-2.5.so
 | lr-x------ 1 root root 64 Aug 26 06:40 7f8f80a30000-7f8f80a4c000 -> /lib64/ld-2.5.so

This *helps* checkpointing process in three ways:

1. When dumping a task mappings we do know exact file that is mapped
   by particular region.  We do this by opening
   /proc/$pid/map_files/$address symlink the way we do with file
   descriptors.

2. This also helps in determining which anonymous shared mappings are
   shared with each other by comparing the inodes of them.

3. When restoring a set of processes in case two of them has a mapping
   shared, we map the memory by the 1st one and then open its
   /proc/$pid/map_files/$address file and map it by the 2nd task.

Using /proc/$pid/maps for this is quite inconvenient since it brings
repeatable re-reading and reparsing for this text file which slows down
restore procedure significantly.  Also as being pointed in (3) it is a way
easier to use top level shared mapping in children as
/proc/$pid/map_files/$address when needed.

The deadlock shouldn't happen since we are doing that allocation in the
mount path, the filesystem is not available for any reclaim.  Still the
warning is annoying.

To solve this, acquire the lock later only where we need it, right before
calling reiserfs_read_locked_inode() that wants to lock to walk the tree.
