sched/numa: Retry task_numa_migrate() periodically
Short spikes of CPU load can lead to a task being migrated
away from its preferred node for temporary reasons.
It is important that the task is migrated back to where it
belongs, in order to avoid migrating too much memory to its
new location, and generally disturbing a task's NUMA location.
This patch fixes NUMA placement for 4 specjbb instances on
a 4 node system. Without this patch, things take longer to
converge, and processes are not always completely on their

sched/numa: Skip some page migrations after a shared fault
Shared faults can lead to lots of unnecessary page migrations,
slowing down the system, and causing private faults to hit the
per-pgdat migration ratelimit.
This patch adds sysctl numa_balancing_migrate_deferred, which specifies
how many shared page migrations to skip unconditionally, after each page
migration that is skipped because it is a shared fault.
This reduces the number of page migrations back and forth in
shared fault situations. It also gives a strong preference to
the tasks that are already running where most of the memory is,
and to moving the other tasks to near the memory.
Testing this with a much higher scan rate than the default
still seems to result in fewer page migrations than before.
Memory seems to be somewhat better consolidated than previously,
with multi-instance specjbb runs on a 4 node system.

mm: numa: Do not batch handle PMD pages
With the THP migration races closed it is still possible to occasionally
see corruption. The problem is related to handling PMD pages in batch.
When a page fault is handled it can be assumed that the page being
faulted will also be flushed from the TLB. The same flushing does not
happen when handling PMD pages in batch. Fixing is straight forward but
there are a number of reasons not to
1. Multiple TLB flushes may have to be sent depending on what pages get
migrated
2. The handling of PMDs in batch means that faults get accounted to
the task that is handling the fault. While care is taken to only
mark PMDs where the last CPU and PID match it can still have problems
due to PID truncation when matching PIDs.
3. Batching on the PMD level may reduce faults but setting pmd_numa
requires taking a heavy lock that can contend with THP migration
and handling the fault requires the release/acquisition of the PTL
for every page migrated. It's still pretty heavy.
PMD batch handling is not something that people ever have been happy
with. This patch removes it and later patches will deal with the
additional fault overhead using more installigent migrate rate adaption.

sched/numa: Use a system-wide search to find swap/migration candidates
This patch implements a system-wide search for swap/migration candidates
based on total NUMA hinting faults. It has a balance limit, however it
doesn't properly consider total node balance.
In the old scheme a task selected a preferred node based on the highest
number of private faults recorded on the node. In this scheme, the preferred
node is based on the total number of faults. If the preferred node for a
task changes then task_numa_migrate will search the whole system looking
for tasks to swap with that would improve both the overall compute
balance and minimise the expected number of remote NUMA hinting faults.
Not there is no guarantee that the node the source task is placed
on by task_numa_migrate() has any relationship to the newly selected
task->numa_preferred_nid due to compute overloading.

buffer will still store faults from the old node the schduler may decide to
reset the preferred node and migrate the task back resulting in more
migrations.
The ideal would be that the scheduler did not migrate tasks with a heavy
memory footprint but this may result nodes being overloaded. We could
also discard the fault information on task migration but this would still
cause all the tasks working set to be migrated. This patch simply avoids

sched/numa: Set preferred NUMA node based on number of private faults
Ideally it would be possible to distinguish between NUMA hinting faults that
are private to a task and those that are shared. If treated identically
there is a risk that shared pages bounce between nodes depending on
the order they are referenced by tasks. Ultimately what is desirable is
that task private pages remain local to the task while shared pages are
interleaved between sharing tasks running on different nodes to give good
average performance. This is further complicated by THP as even
applications that partition their data may not be partitioning on a huge
page boundary.
To start with, this patch assumes that multi-threaded or multi-process
applications partition their data and that in general the private accesses
are more important for cpu->memory locality in the general case. Also,
no new infrastructure is required to treat private pages properly but
interleaving for shared pages requires additional infrastructure.
To detect private accesses the pid of the last accessing task is required
but the storage requirements are a high. This patch borrows heavily from
Ingo Molnar's patch "numa, mm, sched: Implement last-CPU+PID hash tracking"
to encode some bits from the last accessing task in the page flags as
well as the node information. Collisions will occur but it is better than
just depending on the node information. Node information is then used to
determine if a page needs to migrate. The PID information is used to detect
private/shared accesses. The preferred NUMA node is selected based on where
the maximum number of approximately private faults were measured. Shared
faults are not taken into consideration for a few reasons.
First, if there are many tasks sharing the page then they'll all move
towards the same node. The node will be compute overloaded and then
scheduled away later only to bounce back again. Alternatively the shared
tasks would just bounce around nodes because the fault information is
effectively noise. Either way accounting for shared faults the same as
private faults can result in lower performance overall.
The second reason is based on a hypothetical workload that has a small
number of very important, heavily accessed private pages but a large shared
array. The shared array would dominate the number of faults and be selected
as a preferred node even though it's the wrong decision.
The third reason is that multiple threads in a process will race each
other to fault the shared page making the fault information unreliable.

sched/numa: Set the scan rate proportional to the memory usage of the task being scanned
The NUMA PTE scan rate is controlled with a combination of the
numa_balancing_scan_period_min, numa_balancing_scan_period_max and
numa_balancing_scan_size. This scan rate is independent of the size
of the task and as an aside it is further complicated by the fact that
numa_balancing_scan_size controls how many pages are marked pte_numa and
not how much virtual memory is scanned.
In combination, it is almost impossible to meaningfully tune the min and
max scan periods and reasoning about performance is complex when the time
to complete a full scan is is partially a function of the tasks memory
size. This patch alters the semantic of the min and max tunables to be
about tuning the length time it takes to complete a scan of a tasks occupied
virtual address space. Conceptually this is a lot easier to understand. There
is a "sanity" check to ensure the scan rate is never extremely fast based on
the amount of virtual memory that should be scanned in a second. The default
of 2.5G seems arbitrary but it is to have the maximum scan rate after the
patch roughly match the maximum scan rate before the patch was applied.
On a similar note, numa_scan_period is in milliseconds and not
jiffies. Properly placed pages slow the scanning rate but adding 10 jiffies
to numa_scan_period means that the rate scanning slows depends on HZ which
is confusing. Get rid of the jiffies_to_msec conversion and treat it as ms.

Revert "mm: sched: numa: Delay PTE scanning until a task is scheduled on a new node"
PTE scanning and NUMA hinting fault handling is expensive so commit
5bca2303 ("mm: sched: numa: Delay PTE scanning until a task is scheduled

another node. The problem is that in the purely shared memory case that
this may never happen and no NUMA hinting fault information will be
captured. We are not ruling out the possibility that something better
can be done here but for now, this patch needs to be reverted and depend
entirely on the scan_delay to avoid punishing short-lived processes.

Avoiding marking PTEs pte_numa because a particular NUMA node is migrate rate
limited sees like a bad idea. Even if this node can't migrate anymore other
nodes might and we want up-to-date information to do balance decisions.
We already rate limit the actual migrations, this should leave enough

keep up-to-date information if we're going to do placement based on it.

sched/numa: Mitigate chance that same task always updates PTEs
With a trace_printk("working\n"); right after the cmpxchg in
task_numa_work() we can see that of a 4 thread process, its always the
same task winning the race and doing the protection change.
This is a problem since the task doing the protection change has a
penalty for taking faults -- it is busy when marking the PTEs. If its
always the same task the ->numa_faults[] get severely skewed.
Avoid this by delaying the task doing the protection change such that
it is unlikely to win the privilege again.

mm: Wait for THP migrations to complete during NUMA hinting faults
The locking for migrating THP is unusual. While normal page migration
prevents parallel accesses using a migration PTE, THP migration relies on
a combination of the page_table_lock, the page lock and the existance of
the NUMA hinting PTE to guarantee safety but there is a bug in the scheme.
If a THP page is currently being migrated and another thread traps a
fault on the same page it checks if the page is misplaced. If it is not,
then pmd_numa is cleared. The problem is that it checks if the page is
misplaced without holding the page lock meaning that the racing thread
can be migrating the THP when the second thread clears the NUMA bit
and faults a stale page.
This patch checks if the page is potentially being migrated and stalls
using the lock_page if it is potentially being migrated before checking
if the page is misplaced or not.

sched/rt: Remove redundant nr_cpus_allowed test
In
76854c7e8f3f4172fef091e78d88b3b751463ac6 ("sched: Use
rt.nr_cpus_allowed to recover select_task_rq() cycles") an
optimization was added to select_task_rq_rt() that immediately
returns when p->nr_cpus_allowed == 1 at the beginning of the
function.
This makes the latter p->nr_cpus_allowed > 1 check redundant,
which can now be removed.

Btrfs: eliminate races in worker stopping code
The current implementation of worker threads in Btrfs has races in
worker stopping code, which cause all kinds of panics and lockups when
running btrfs/011 xfstest in a loop. The problem is that
btrfs_stop_workers is unsynchronized with respect to check_idle_worker,
check_busy_worker and __btrfs_start_workers.
E.g., check_idle_worker race flow:
btrfs_stop_workers(): check_idle_worker(aworker):
- grabs the lock
- splices the idle list into the
working list
- removes the first worker from the
working list
- releases the lock to wait for
its kthread's completion
- grabs the lock
- if aworker is on the working list,
moves aworker from the working list
to the idle list
- releases the lock
- grabs the lock
- puts the worker
- removes the second worker from the
working list
......
btrfs_stop_workers returns, aworker is on the idle list
FS is umounted, memory is freed
......
aworker is waken up, fireworks ensue
With this applied, I wasn't able to trigger the problem in 48 hours,
whereas previously I could reliably reproduce at least one of these
races within an hour.

Btrfs: fix crash of compressed writes
The crash[1] is found by xfstests/generic/208 with "-o compress",
it's not reproduced everytime, but it does panic.
The bug is quite interesting, it's actually introduced by a recent commit
(
573aecafca1cf7a974231b759197a1aebcf39c2a,
Btrfs: actually limit the size of delalloc range).
Btrfs implements delay allocation, so during writeback, we
(1) get a page A and lock it
(2) search the state tree for delalloc bytes and lock all pages within the range
(3) process the delalloc range, including find disk space and create
ordered extent and so on.
(4) submit the page A.
It runs well in normal cases, but if we're in a racy case, eg.
buffered compressed writes and aio-dio writes,
sometimes we may fail to lock all pages in the 'delalloc' range,
in which case, we need to fall back to search the state tree again with
a smaller range limit(max_bytes = PAGE_CACHE_SIZE - offset).
The mentioned commit has a side effect, that is, in the fallback case,
we can find delalloc bytes before the index of the page we already have locked,
so we're in the case of (delalloc_end <= *start) and return with (found > 0).
This ends with not locking delalloc pages but making ->writepage still
process them, and the crash happens.
This fixes it by just thinking that we find nothing and returning to caller
as the caller knows how to deal with it properly.

Btrfs: fix transid verify errors when recovering log tree
If we crash with a log, remount and recover that log, and then crash before we
can commit another transaction we will get transid verify errors on the next
mount. This is because we were not zero'ing out the log when we committed the
transaction after recovery. This is ok as long as we commit another transaction
at some point in the future, but if you abort or something else goes wrong you
can end up in this weird state because the recovery stuff says that the tree log
should have a generation+1 of the super generation, which won't be the case of
the transaction that was started for recovery. Fix this by removing the check
and _always_ zero out the log portion of the super when we commit a transaction.
This fixes the transid verify issues I was seeing with my force errors tests.
Thanks,

selinux: remove 'flags' parameter from inode_has_perm
Every single user passes in '0'. I think we had non-zero users back in
some stone age when selinux_inode_permission() was implemented in terms
of inode_has_perm(), but that complicated case got split up into a
totally separate code-path so that we could optimize the much simpler
special cases.
See commit
2e33405785d3 ("SELinux: delay initialization of audit data in
selinux_inode_permission") for example.

xfs: dirent dtype presence is dependent on directory magic numbers
The determination of whether a directory entry contains a dtype
field originally was dependent on the filesystem having CRCs
enabled. This meant that the format for dtype beign enabled could be
determined by checking the directory block magic number rather than
doing a feature bit check. This was useful in that it meant that we
didn't need to pass a struct xfs_mount around to functions that
were already supplied with a directory block header.
Unfortunately, the introduction of dtype fields into the v4
structure via a feature bit meant this "use the directory block
magic number" method of discriminating the dirent entry sizes is
broken. Hence we need to convert the places that use magic number
checks to use feature bit checks so that they work correctly and not
by chance.
The current code works on v4 filesystems only because the dirent
size roundup covers the extra byte needed by the dtype field in the
places where this problem occurs.
