The information in /sys/kernel/debug/page_owner includes the migratetype
of the pageblock the page belongs to.  This is also checked against the
page's migratetype (as declared by gfp_flags during its allocation), and
the page is reported as Fallback if its migratetype differs from the
pageblock's one.  t This is somewhat misleading because in fact fallback
allocation is not the only reason why these two can differ.  It also
doesn't direcly provide the page's migratetype, although it's possible
to derive that from the gfp_flags.

It's arguably better to print both page and pageblock's migratetype and
leave the interpretation to the consumer than to suggest fallback
allocation as the only possible reason.  While at it, we can print the
migratetypes as string the same way as /proc/pagetypeinfo does, as some
of the numeric values depend on kernel configuration.  For that, this
patch moves the migratetype_names array from #ifdef CONFIG_PROC_FS part
of mm/vmstat.c to mm/page_alloc.c and exports it.

With the new format strings for flags, we can now also provide symbolic
page and gfp flags in the /sys/kernel/debug/page_owner file.  This
replaces the positional printing of page flags as single letters, which

for debugging purposes, or exported to userspace via sysfs.  To make
them easier to interpret independently on kernel version and config, we
want to dump also the symbolic flag names.  So far this has been done
with repeated calls to pr_cont(), which is unreliable on SMP, and not
usable for e.g.  sysfs export.

To get a more reliable and universal solution, this patch extends
printk() format string for pointers to handle the page flags (%pGp),
gfp_flags (%pGg) and vma flags (%pGv).  Existing users of
dump_flag_names() are converted and simplified.

It would be possible to pass flags by value instead of pointer, but the
%p format string for pointers already has extensions for various kernel
structures, so it's a good fit, and the extra indirection in a
non-critical path is negligible.

8 years agomm, tracing: unify mm flags handling in tracepoints and printk
Vlastimil Babka [Tue, 15 Mar 2016 21:55:52 +0000 (14:55 -0700)]
mm, tracing: unify mm flags handling in tracepoints and printk

In tracepoints, it's possible to print gfp flags in a human-friendly
format through a macro show_gfp_flags(), which defines a translation
array and passes is to __print_flags().  Since the following patch will
introduce support for gfp flags printing in printk(), it would be nice
to reuse the array.  This is not straightforward, since __print_flags()
can't simply reference an array defined in a .c file such as mm/debug.c
- it has to be a macro to allow the macro magic to communicate the
format to userspace tools such as trace-cmd.

The solution is to create a macro __def_gfpflag_names which is used both
in show_gfp_flags(), and to define the gfpflag_names[] array in
mm/debug.c.

On the other hand, mm/debug.c also defines translation tables for page
flags and vma flags, and desire was expressed (but not implemented in
this series) to use these also from tracepoints.  Thus, this patch also
renames the events/gfpflags.h file to events/mmflags.h and moves the
table definitions there, using the same macro approach as for gfpflags.
This allows translating all three kinds of mm-specific flags both in
tracepoints and printk.

The show_gfp_flags() macro provides human-friendly printing of gfp flags

flags.  This patches fills in the missing flags, and distinguishes

code, and can only lead to confusion.  Where both variants are defined
equal (e.g.  _DMA and _DMA32), the variant without underscores are
preferred.

Also add a note in gfp.h so hopefully future changes will be synced

__GFP_MOVABLE is defined twice in include/linux/gfp.h with different

8 years agomm: filemap: avoid unnecessary calls to lock_page when waiting for IO to complete...
Mel Gorman [Tue, 15 Mar 2016 21:55:39 +0000 (14:55 -0700)]
mm: filemap: avoid unnecessary calls to lock_page when waiting for IO to complete during a read

In the generic read paths the kernel looks up a page in the page cache
and if it's up to date, it is used.  If not, the page lock is acquired
to wait for IO to complete and then check the page.  If multiple
processes are waiting on IO, they all serialise against the lock and
duplicate the checks.  This is unnecessary.

The page lock in itself does not give any guarantees to the callers
about the page state as it can be immediately truncated or reclaimed
after the page is unlocked.  It's sufficient to wait_on_page_locked and
then continue if the page is up to date on wakeup.

It is possible that a truncated but up-to-date page is returned but the
reference taken during read prevents it disappearing underneath the
caller and the data is still valid if PageUptodate.

The overall impact is small as even if processes serialise on the lock,
the lock section is tiny once the IO is complete.  Profiles indicated
that unlock_page and friends are generally a tiny portion of a
read-intensive workload.  An artificial test was created that had
instances of dd access a cache-cold file on an ext4 filesystem and
measure how long the read took.

(reliable) via EFI memory map.  Now Linux kernel utilize its information
and allocates boot time memory from reliable region.

My requirement is:
  - allocate kernel memory from mirrored region
  - allocate user memory from non-mirrored region

In order to meet my requirement, ZONE_MOVABLE is useful.  By arranging
non-mirrored range into ZONE_MOVABLE, mirrored memory is used for kernel
allocations.

My idea is to extend existing "kernelcore" option and introduces
kernelcore=mirror option.  By specifying "mirror" instead of specifying
the amount of memory, non-mirrored region will be arranged into
ZONE_MOVABLE.

Earlier discussions are at:
 https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/10/9/24

 https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/11/27/18
 https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/12/8/836

For example, suppose 2-nodes system with the following memory range:

  node 0 [mem 0x0000000000001000-0x000000109fffffff]
  node 1 [mem 0x00000010a0000000-0x000000209fffffff]
and the following ranges are marked as reliable (mirrored):
  [0x0000000000000000-0x0000000100000000]
  [0x0000000100000000-0x0000000180000000]
  [0x0000000800000000-0x0000000880000000]
  [0x00000010a0000000-0x0000001120000000]
  [0x00000017a0000000-0x0000001820000000]

If you specify kernelcore=mirror, ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_MOVABLE are
arranged like bellow:

 - node 0:
  ZONE_NORMAL : [0x0000000100000000-0x00000010a0000000]
  ZONE_MOVABLE: [0x0000000180000000-0x00000010a0000000]
 - node 1:
  ZONE_NORMAL : [0x00000010a0000000-0x00000020a0000000]
  ZONE_MOVABLE: [0x0000001120000000-0x00000020a0000000]

In overlapped range, pages to be ZONE_MOVABLE in ZONE_NORMAL are treated
as absent pages, and vice versa.

This patch (of 2):

Currently each zone's zone_start_pfn is calculated at
free_area_init_core().  However zone's range is fixed at the time when
invoking zone_spanned_pages_in_node().

This patch changes how each zone->zone_start_pfn is calculated in
zone_spanned_pages_in_node().

Although current object's right redzone acts as left redzone of next
object, first object in a slab cannot take advantage of this effect.
This patch explicitly adds a left red zone to each object to detect left
oob more precisely.

Background:

Someone complained to me that left OOB doesn't catch even if KASAN is
enabled which does page allocation debugging.  That page is out of our
control so it would be allocated when left OOB happens and, in this
case, we can't find OOB.  Moreover, SLUB debugging feature can be
enabled without page allocator debugging and, in this case, we will miss
that OOB.

Before trying to implement, I expected that changes would be too
complex, but, it doesn't look that complex to me now.  Almost changes
are applied to debug specific functions so I feel okay.

This series takes the suggestion of Christoph Lameter and only focuses
on optimizing the slow path where the debug processing runs.  The two
main optimizations in this series are letting the consistency checks be
skipped and relaxing the cmpxchg restrictions when we are not doing
consistency checks.  With hackbench -g 20 -l 1000 averaged over 100

This still isn't as fast as what is in grsecurity unfortunately so there's
still work to be done.  Profiling ___slab_alloc shows that 25-50% of time
is spent in deactivate_slab.  I haven't looked too closely to see if this
is something that can be optimized.  My plan for now is to focus on
getting all of this merged (if appropriate) before digging in to another
task.

This patch (of 4):

Currently, free_debug_processing has a comment "Keep node_lock to preserve
integrity until the object is actually freed".  In actuallity, the lock is
dropped immediately in __slab_free.  Rather than wait until __slab_free
and potentially throw off the unlikely marking, just drop the lock in
__slab_free.  This also lets free_debug_processing take its own copy of
the spinlock flags rather than trying to share the ones from __slab_free.
Since there is no use for the node afterwards, change the return type of
free_debug_processing to return an int like alloc_debug_processing.

8 years agomm/slab: re-implement pfmemalloc support
Joonsoo Kim [Tue, 15 Mar 2016 21:54:56 +0000 (14:54 -0700)]
mm/slab: re-implement pfmemalloc support

Current implementation of pfmemalloc handling in SLAB has some problems.

1) pfmemalloc_active is set to true when there is just one or more
   pfmemalloc slabs in the system, but it is cleared when there is no
   pfmemalloc slab in one arbitrary kmem_cache.  So, pfmemalloc_active
   could be wrongly cleared.

2) Search to partial and free list doesn't happen when non-pfmemalloc
   object are not found in cpu cache.  Instead, allocating new slab
   happens and it is not optimal.

3) Even after sk_memalloc_socks() is disabled, cpu cache would keep
   pfmemalloc objects tagged with SLAB_OBJ_PFMEMALLOC.  It isn't cleared
   if sk_memalloc_socks() is disabled so it could cause problem.

4) If cpu cache is filled with pfmemalloc objects, it would cause slow
   down non-pfmemalloc allocation.

To me, current pointer tagging approach looks complex and fragile so this
patch re-implement whole thing instead of fixing problems one by one.

Design principle for new implementation is that

1) Don't disrupt non-pfmemalloc allocation in fast path even if
   sk_memalloc_socks() is enabled.  It's more likely case than pfmemalloc
   allocation.

2) Ensure that pfmemalloc slab is used only for pfmemalloc allocation.

3) Don't consider performance of pfmemalloc allocation in memory
   deficiency state.

As a result, all pfmemalloc alloc/free in memory tight state will be
handled in slow-path.  If there is non-pfmemalloc free object, it will be
returned first even for pfmemalloc user in fast-path so that performance
of pfmemalloc user isn't affected in normal case and pfmemalloc objects
will be kept as long as possible.

8 years agomm/slab: introduce new slab management type, OBJFREELIST_SLAB
Joonsoo Kim [Tue, 15 Mar 2016 21:54:50 +0000 (14:54 -0700)]
mm/slab: introduce new slab management type, OBJFREELIST_SLAB

SLAB needs an array to manage freed objects in a slab.  It is only used
if some objects are freed so we can use free object itself as this
array.  This requires additional branch in somewhat critical lock path
to check if it is first freed object or not but that's all we need.
Benefits is that we can save extra memory usage and reduce some
computational overhead by allocating a management array when new slab is
created.

Code change is rather complex than what we can expect from the idea, in
order to handle debugging feature efficiently.  If you want to see core
idea only, please remove '#if DEBUG' block in the patch.

Although this idea can apply to all caches whose size is larger than
management array size, it isn't applied to caches which have a
constructor.  If such cache's object is used for management array,
constructor should be called for it before that object is returned to
user.  I guess that overhead overwhelm benefit in that case so this idea
doesn't applied to them at least now.

For summary, from now on, slab management type is determined by
following logic.

1) if management array size is smaller than object size and no ctor, it
   becomes OBJFREELIST_SLAB.

2) if management array size is smaller than leftover, it becomes
   NORMAL_SLAB which uses leftover as a array.

3) if OFF_SLAB help to save memory than way 4), it becomes OFF_SLAB.
   It allocate a management array from the other cache so memory waste
   happens.

4) others become NORMAL_SLAB.  It uses dedicated internal memory in a
   slab as a management array so it causes memory waste.

In my system, without enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB, Almost caches become
OBJFREELIST_SLAB and NORMAL_SLAB (using leftover) which doesn't waste
memory.  Following is the result of number of caches with specific slab
management type.

TOTAL = OBJFREELIST + NORMAL(leftover) + NORMAL + OFF

/Before/
126 = 0 + 60 + 25 + 41

/After/
126 = 97 + 12 + 15 + 2

Result shows that number of caches that doesn't waste memory increase
from 60 to 109.

I did some benchmarking and it looks that benefit are more than loss.

Currently, the freelist is at the front of slab page.  This requires
extra space to meet object alignment requirement.  If we put the
freelist at the end of a slab page, objects could start at page boundary
and will be at correct alignment.  This is possible because freelist has
no alignment constraint itself.

This gives us two benefits: It removes extra memory space for the
freelist alignment and remove complex calculation at cache
initialization step.  I can't think notable drawback here.

I mentioned that this would reduce extra memory space, but, this benefit
is rather theoretical because it can be applied to very few cases.
Following is the example cache type that can get benefit from this
change.

  size align num before after
    32    8  124  4100  4092
    64    8   63  4103  4095
    88    8   46  4102  4094
   272    8   15  4103  4095

    64   16   63  4111  4095
    32   32  124  4124  4092
    64   32   63  4127  4095
    96   32   42  4106  4074

before means whole size for objects and aligned freelist before applying
patch and after shows the result of this patch.

Since before is more than 4096, number of object should decrease and
memory waste happens.

Anyway, this patch removes complex calculation so looks beneficial to
me.

mm/slab: alternative implementation for DEBUG_SLAB_LEAK

DEBUG_SLAB_LEAK is a debug option.  It's current implementation requires
status buffer so we need more memory to use it.  And, it cause
kmem_cache initialization step more complex.

To remove this extra memory usage and to simplify initialization step,
this patch implement this feature with another way.

When user requests to get slab object owner information, it marks that
getting information is started.  And then, all free objects in caches
are flushed to corresponding slab page.  Now, we can distinguish all
freed object so we can know all allocated objects, too.  After
collecting slab object owner information on allocated objects, mark is
checked that there is no free during the processing.  If true, we can be
sure that our information is correct so information is returned to user.

Although this way is rather complex, it has two important benefits
mentioned above.  So, I think it is worth changing.

There is one drawback that it takes more time to get slab object owner
information but it is just a debug option so it doesn't matter at all.

To help review, this patch implements new way only.  Following patch
will remove useless code.

mm/slab: fix stale code comment

This patchset implements a new freed object management way, that is,
OBJFREELIST_SLAB.  Purpose of it is to reduce memory overhead in SLAB.

SLAB needs a array to manage freed objects in a slab.  If there is
leftover after objects are packed into a slab, we can use it as a
management array, and, in this case, there is no memory waste.  But, in
the other cases, we need to allocate extra memory for a management array
or utilize dedicated internal memory in a slab for it.  Both cases
causes memory waste so it's not good.

With this patchset, freed object itself can be used for a management
array.  So, memory waste could be reduced.  Detailed idea and numbers
are described in last patch's commit description.  Please refer it.

In fact, I tested another idea implementing OBJFREELIST_SLAB with
extendable linked array through another freed object.  It can remove
memory waste completely but it causes more computational overhead in
critical lock path and it seems that overhead outweigh benefit.  So,
this patchset doesn't include it.  I will attach prototype just for a
reference.

This patch (of 16):

We use freelist_idx_t type for free object management whose size would be
smaller than size of unsigned int.  Fix it.

8 years agomm: new API kfree_bulk() for SLAB+SLUB allocators
Jesper Dangaard Brouer [Tue, 15 Mar 2016 21:54:00 +0000 (14:54 -0700)]
mm: new API kfree_bulk() for SLAB+SLUB allocators

This patch introduce a new API call kfree_bulk() for bulk freeing memory
objects not bound to a single kmem_cache.

Christoph pointed out that it is possible to implement freeing of
objects, without knowing the kmem_cache pointer as that information is
available from the object's page->slab_cache.  Proposing to remove the
kmem_cache argument from the bulk free API.

Jesper demonstrated that these extra steps per object comes at a
performance cost.  It is only in the case CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is compiled
in and activated runtime that these steps are done anyhow.  The extra
cost is most visible for SLAB allocator, because the SLUB allocator does
the page lookup (virt_to_head_page()) anyhow.

Thus, the conclusion was to keep the kmem_cache free bulk API with a
kmem_cache pointer, but we can still implement a kfree_bulk() API fairly
easily.  Simply by handling if kmem_cache_free_bulk() gets called with a
kmem_cache NULL pointer.

This does increase the code size a bit, but implementing a separate
kfree_bulk() call would likely increase code size even more.

Below benchmarks cost of alloc+free (obj size 256 bytes) on CPU i7-4790K
@ 4.00GHz, no PREEMPT and CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM=y.

slub: clean up code for kmem cgroup support to kmem_cache_free_bulk

This change is primarily an attempt to make it easier to realize the
optimizations the compiler performs in-case CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is not
enabled.

Performance wise, even when CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is compiled in, the
overhead is zero.  This is because, as long as no process have enabled
kmem cgroups accounting, the assignment is replaced by asm-NOP
operations.  This is possible because memcg_kmem_enabled() uses a
static_key_false() construct.

It also helps readability as it avoid accessing the p[] array like:
p[size - 1] which "expose" that the array is processed backwards inside
helper function build_detached_freelist().

Lastly this also makes the code more robust, in error case like passing
NULL pointers in the array.  Which were previously handled before commit
033745189b1b ("slub: add missing kmem cgroup support to

In 2012, Rusty did a cleanup patch that also changed the type of the

This changes the type back to 'int' and adapts the module_param() line

When calculate_cpu_foreign_map() recalculates the cpu_foreign_map
cpumask it uses the local variable temp_foreign_map without initialising
it to zero. Since the calculation only ever sets bits in this cpumask
any existing bits at that memory location will remain set and find their
way into cpu_foreign_map too. This could potentially lead to cache
operations suboptimally doing smp calls to multiple VPEs in the same
core, even though the VPEs share primary caches.

Therefore initialise temp_foreign_map using cpumask_clear() before use.

8 years agox86/efi: Fix boot crash by always mapping boot service regions into new EFI page...
Matt Fleming [Fri, 11 Mar 2016 11:19:23 +0000 (11:19 +0000)]
x86/efi: Fix boot crash by always mapping boot service regions into new EFI page tables

Some machines have EFI regions in page zero (physical address
0x00000000) and historically that region has been added to the e820
map via trim_bios_range(), and ultimately mapped into the kernel page
tables. It was not mapped via efi_map_regions() as one would expect.

Alexis reports that with the new separate EFI page tables some boot
services regions, such as page zero, are not mapped. This triggers an
oops during the SetVirtualAddressMap() runtime call.

For the EFI boot services quirk on x86 we need to memblock_reserve()
boot services regions until after SetVirtualAddressMap(). Doing that
while respecting the ownership of regions that may have already been
reserved by the kernel was the motivation behind this commit:

  7d68dc3f1003 ("x86, efi: Do not reserve boot services regions within reserved areas")

That patch was merged at a time when the EFI runtime virtual mappings
were inserted into the kernel page tables as described above, and the
trick of setting ->numpages (and hence the region size) to zero to
track regions that should not be freed in efi_free_boot_services()
meant that we never mapped those regions in efi_map_regions(). Instead
we were relying solely on the existing kernel mappings.

Now that we have separate page tables we need to make sure the EFI
boot services regions are mapped correctly, even if someone else has
already called memblock_reserve(). Instead of stashing a tag in
->numpages, set the EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME bit of ->attribute. Since it
generally makes no sense to mark a boot services region as required at
runtime, it's pretty much guaranteed the firmware will not have
already set this bit.

For the record, the specific circumstances under which Alexis
triggered this bug was that an EFI runtime driver on his machine was
responding to the EVT_SIGNAL_VIRTUAL_ADDRESS_CHANGE event during
SetVirtualAddressMap().

The event handler for this driver looks like this,

  sub rsp,0x28
  lea rdx,[rip+0x2445] # 0xaa948720
  mov ecx,0x4
  call func_aa9447c0  ; call to ConvertPointer(4, & 0xaa948720)
  mov r11,QWORD PTR [rip+0x2434] # 0xaa948720
  xor eax,eax
  mov BYTE PTR [r11+0x1],0x1
  add rsp,0x28
  ret

Which is pretty typical code for an EVT_SIGNAL_VIRTUAL_ADDRESS_CHANGE
handler. The "mov r11, QWORD PTR [rip+0x2424]" was the faulting
instruction because ConvertPointer() was being called to convert the
address 0x0000000000000000, which when converted is left unchanged and
remains 0x0000000000000000.

The output of the oops trace gave the impression of a standard NULL
pointer dereference bug, but because we're accessing physical
addresses during ConvertPointer(), it wasn't. EFI boot services code
is stored at that address on Alexis' machine.

8 years agox86/fpu: Fix eager-FPU handling on legacy FPU machines
Borislav Petkov [Fri, 11 Mar 2016 11:32:06 +0000 (12:32 +0100)]
x86/fpu: Fix eager-FPU handling on legacy FPU machines

i486 derived cores like Intel Quark support only the very old,
legacy x87 FPU (FSAVE/FRSTOR, CPUID bit FXSR is not set), and
our FPU code wasn't handling the saving and restoring there
properly in the 'eagerfpu' case.

So after we made eagerfpu the default for all CPU types:

  58122bf1d856 x86/fpu: Default eagerfpu=on on all CPUs

these old FPU designs broke. First, Andy Shevchenko reported a splat:

  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 823 at arch/x86/include/asm/fpu/internal.h:163 fpu__clear+0x8c/0x160

which was us trying to execute FXRSTOR on those machines even though
they don't support it.

After taking care of that, Bryan O'Donoghue reported that a simple FPU
test still failed because we weren't initializing the FPU state properly
on those machines.

Take care of all that.
