16 years ago[IA64] update efi region debugging to use MB, GB and TB as well as KB
Simon Horman [Tue, 26 Feb 2008 06:24:04 +0000 (15:24 +0900)]
[IA64] update efi region debugging to use MB, GB and TB as well as KB

When EFI_DEBUG is defined to a non-zero value in arch/ia64/kernel/efi.c,
the efi memory regions are displayed. This patch enhances the
display code in a few ways:

1. Use TB, GB and MB as well as KB as units.
   Although this introduces rounding errors (KB doesn't as
   size is always a multiple of 4Kb), it does make
   things a lot more readable.

   Also as the range is also shown, it is possible to note the exact size
   if it is important. In my experience, the size field is mostly useful
   for getting a general idea of the size of a region.

   On the rx2620 that I use, there actually is an 8TB region (though not
   backed by physical memory, and 8TB really is a lot more readable than
   8589934592KB.

2. pad the size field with leading spaces to further improve readability

   ...
   ... (   8MB)
   ... ( 928MB)
   ... (   3MB)
   ...

   vs

   ...
   ... (8MB)
   ... (928MB)
   ... (3MB)
   ...

3. Pad the attr field out to 64bits using leading zeros,
   to further improve readability.

   ...
   mem05: type= 2, attr=0x0000000000000008, range=[0x0000000004000000-0x000000000481f000) (   8MB)

[CRYPTO] xcbc: Fix crash with IPsec

When using aes-xcbc-mac for authentication in IPsec,
the kernel crashes. It seems this algorithm doesn't

Thus when crypto_xcbc_digest_update2() gets called,
nbytes may be less than sg[i].length.
Since nbytes is an unsigned number, it wraps
at the end of the loop allowing us to go back
into loop and causing crash in memcpy.

NFS: use new LSM interfaces to explicitly set mount options

NFS and SELinux worked together previously because SELinux had NFS
specific knowledge built in.  This design was approved by both groups
back in 2004 but the recent NFS changes to use nfs_parsed_mount_data and
the usage of nfs_clone_mount_data showed this to be a poor fragile
solution.  This patch fixes the NFS functionality regression by making
use of the new LSM interfaces to allow an FS to explicitly set its own
mount options.

The explicit setting of mount options is done in the nfs get_sb
functions which are called before the generic vfs hooks try to set mount
options for filesystems which use text mount data.

This does not currently support NFSv4 as that functionality did not
exist in previous kernels and thus there is no regression.  I will be
adding the needed code, which I believe to be the exact same as the v3
code, in nfs4_get_sb for 2.6.26.

LSM that an FS can use to get a security data blob and a new security

mount data, like NFS, which does not pass strings into the vfs to be
handled by the loaded LSM.  Also fix a BUG() in both SELinux and SMACK
when dealing with binary mount data.  If the binary mount data is less
than one page the copy_page() in security_sb_copy_data() can cause an

following series of events in processes A and B:

 B) Frees some huge pages
 A) A notices the extra free pages and drops hugetlb_lock to free some of

16 years agomd: the md RAID10 resync thread could cause a md RAID10 array deadlock
K.Tanaka [Tue, 4 Mar 2008 22:29:37 +0000 (14:29 -0800)]
md: the md RAID10 resync thread could cause a md RAID10 array deadlock

This message describes another issue about md RAID10 found by testing the
2.6.24 md RAID10 using new scsi fault injection framework.

Abstract:

When a scsi error results in disabling a disk during RAID10 recovery, the
resync threads of md RAID10 could stall.

This case, the raid array has already been broken and it may not matter.  But
I think stall is not preferable.  If it occurs, even shutdown or reboot will
fail because of resource busy.

The deadlock mechanism:

The r10bio_s structure has a "remaining" member to keep track of BIOs yet to
be handled when recovering.  The "remaining" counter is incremented when
building a BIO in sync_request() and is decremented when finish a BIO in
end_sync_write().

If building a BIO fails for some reasons in sync_request(), the "remaining"
should be decremented if it has already been incremented.  I found a case
where this decrement is forgotten.  This causes a md_do_sync() deadlock
because md_do_sync() waits for md_done_sync() called by end_sync_write(), but
end_sync_write() never calls md_done_sync() because of the "remaining" counter
mismatch.

For example, this problem would be reproduced in the following case:

Personalities : [raid10]
md0 : active raid10 sdf1[4] sde1[5](F) sdd1[2] sdc1[1] sdb1[6](F)
      3919616 blocks 64K chunks 2 near-copies [4/2] [_UU_]
      [>....................]  recovery =  2.2% (45376/1959808) finish=0.7min speed=45376K/sec

This case, sdf1 is recovering, sdb1 and sde1 are disabled.
An additional error with detaching sdd will cause a deadlock.

md0 : active raid10 sdf1[4] sde1[5](F) sdd1[6](F) sdc1[1] sdb1[7](F)
      3919616 blocks 64K chunks 2 near-copies [4/1] [_U__]
      [=>...................]  recovery =  5.0% (99520/1959808) finish=5.9min speed=5237K/sec

28830 pts/1    R+     0:00 ps ax
31819 ?        D<     0:00 [kjournald]

The resync thread keeps working, but actually it is deadlocked.

Patch:
By this patch, the remaining counter will be decremented if needed.

md: don't attempt read-balancing for raid10 'far' layouts

This patch changes the disk to be read for layout "far > 1" to always be the
disk with the lowest block address.

Thus the chunks to be read will always be (for a fully functioning array) from
the first band of stripes, and the raid will then work as a raid0 consisting
of the first band of stripes.

Some advantages:

The fastest part which is the outer sectors of the disks involved will be
used.  The outer blocks of a disk may be as much as 100 % faster than the
inner blocks.

Average seek time will be smaller, as seeks will always be confined to the
first part of the disks.

Mixed disks with different performance characteristics will work better, as
they will work as raid0, the sequential read rate will be number of disks
involved times the IO rate of the slowest disk.

If a disk is malfunctioning, the first disk which is working, and has the
lowest block address for the logical block will be used.

md: lock access to rdev attributes properly

When we access attributes of an rdev (component device on an md array) through
sysfs, we really need to lock the array against concurrent changes.  We
currently do that when we change an attribute, but not when we read an
attribute.  We need to lock when reading as well else rdev->mddev could become
NULL while we are accessing it.

So add appropriate locking (mddev_lock) to rdev_attr_show.

rdev_size_store requires some extra care as well as it needs to unlock the
mddev while scanning other mddevs for overlapping regions.  We currently
assume that rdev->mddev will still be unchanged after the scan, but that

When handling a read error, we freeze the array to stop any other IO while
attempting to over-write with correct data.

This is done in the raid1d(raid10d) thread and must wait for all submitted IO
to complete (except for requests that failed and are sitting in the retry
queue - these are counted in ->nr_queue and will stay there during a freeze).

However write requests need attention from raid1d as bitmap updates might be
required.  This can cause a deadlock as raid1 is waiting for requests to
finish that themselves need attention from raid1d.

So we create a new function 'flush_pending_writes' to give that attention, and

16 years agomemcg: fix oops on NULL lru list
Hugh Dickins [Tue, 4 Mar 2008 22:29:16 +0000 (14:29 -0800)]
memcg: fix oops on NULL lru list

While testing force_empty, during an exit_mmap, __mem_cgroup_remove_list
called from mem_cgroup_uncharge_page oopsed on a NULL pointer in the lru list.
 I couldn't see what racing tasks on other cpus were doing, but surmise that
another must have been in mem_cgroup_charge_common on the same page, between
its unlock_page_cgroup and spin_lock_irqsave near done (thanks to that kzalloc
which I'd almost changed to a kmalloc).

Normally such a race cannot happen, the ref_cnt prevents it, the final
uncharge cannot race with the initial charge.  But force_empty buggers the
ref_cnt, that's what it's all about; and thereafter forced pages are
vulnerable to races such as this (just think of a shared page also mapped into
an mm of another mem_cgroup than that just emptied).  And remain vulnerable
until they're freed indefinitely later.

This patch just fixes the oops by moving the unlock_page_cgroups down below
adding to and removing from the list (only possible given the previous patch);
and while we're at it, we might as well make it an invariant that
page->page_cgroup is always set while pc is on lru.

But this behaviour of force_empty seems highly unsatisfactory to me: why have
a ref_cnt if we always have to cope with it being violated (as in the earlier
page migration patch).  We may prefer force_empty to move pages to an orphan
mem_cgroup (could be the root, but better not), from which other cgroups could
recover them; we might need to reverse the locking again; but no time now for
such concerns.

16 years agomemcg: simplify force_empty and move_lists

memcg: simplify force_empty and move_lists

As for force_empty, though this may not be the main topic here,
mem_cgroup_force_empty_list() can be implemented simpler.  It is possible to
make the function just call mem_cgroup_uncharge_page() instead of releasing
page_cgroups by itself.  The tip is to call get_page() before invoking
mem_cgroup_uncharge_page(), so the page won't be released during this
function.

Kamezawa-san points out that by the time mem_cgroup_uncharge_page() uncharges,
the page might have been reassigned to an lru of a different mem_cgroup, and
now be emptied from that; but Hugh claims that's okay, the end state is the
same as when it hasn't gone to another list.

And once force_empty stops taking lock_page_cgroup within mz->lru_lock,
mem_cgroup_move_lists() can be simplified to take mz->lru_lock directly while
holding page_cgroup lock (but still has to use try_lock_page_cgroup).

Ever since the VM_BUG_ON(page_get_page_cgroup(page)) (now Bad page state) went
into page freeing, I've hit it from time to time in testing on some machines,
sometimes only after many days.  Recently found a machine which could usually
produce it within a few hours, which got me there at last.

The culprit is mem_cgroup_move_lists, whose locking is inadequate; and the
arrangement of structures was such that you got page_cgroups from the lru list
neatly put on to SLUB's freelist.  Kamezawa-san identified the same hole
independently.

The main problem was that it was missing the lock_page_cgroup it needs to
safely page_get_page_cgroup; but it's tricky to go beyond that too, and I
couldn't do it with SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU as I'd expected.  See the code for
comments on the constraints.

This patch immediately gets replaced by a simpler one from Hirokazu-san; but
is it just foolish pride that tells me to put this one on record, in case we

Hugh Dickins [Tue, 4 Mar 2008 22:29:08 +0000 (14:29 -0800)]
memcg: remove mem_cgroup_uncharge

Nothing uses mem_cgroup_uncharge apart from mem_cgroup_uncharge_page, (a
trivial wrapper around it) and mem_cgroup_end_migration (which does the same
as mem_cgroup_uncharge_page).  And it often ends up having to lock just to let
its caller unlock.  Remove it (but leave the silly locking until a later
patch).

Moved mem_cgroup_cache_charge next to mem_cgroup_charge in memcontrol.h.

16 years agomemcg: mem_cgroup_charge never NULL
Hugh Dickins [Tue, 4 Mar 2008 22:29:08 +0000 (14:29 -0800)]
memcg: mem_cgroup_charge never NULL

My memcgroup patch to fix hang with shmem/tmpfs added NULL page handling to
mem_cgroup_charge_common.  It seemed convenient at the time, but hard to
justify now: there's a perfectly appropriate swappage to charge and uncharge
instead, this is not on any hot path through shmem_getpage, and no performance
hit was observed from the slight extra overhead.

So revert that NULL page handling from mem_cgroup_charge_common; and make it
clearer by bringing page_cgroup_assign_new_page_cgroup into its body - that
was a helper I found more of a hindrance to understanding.

16 years agomemcg: bad page if page_cgroup when free
Hugh Dickins [Tue, 4 Mar 2008 22:29:07 +0000 (14:29 -0800)]
memcg: bad page if page_cgroup when free

Replace free_hot_cold_page's VM_BUG_ON(page_get_page_cgroup(page)) by a "Bad
page state" and clear: most users don't have CONFIG_DEBUG_VM on, and if it
were set here, it'd likely cause corruption when the page is reused.

Don't use page_assign_page_cgroup to clear it: that should be private to
memcontrol.c, and always called with the lock taken; and memmap_init_zone
doesn't need it either - like page->mapping and other pointers throughout the
kernel, Linux assumes pointers in zeroed structures are NULL pointers.

Instead use page_reset_bad_cgroup, added to memcontrol.h for this only.

16 years agomemcg: fix VM_BUG_ON from page migration
Hugh Dickins [Tue, 4 Mar 2008 22:29:06 +0000 (14:29 -0800)]
memcg: fix VM_BUG_ON from page migration

Page migration gave me free_hot_cold_page's VM_BUG_ON page->page_cgroup.
remove_migration_pte was calling mem_cgroup_charge on the new page whenever it
found a swap pte, before it had determined it to be a migration entry.  That
left a surplus reference count on the page_cgroup, so it was still attached
when the page was later freed.

Move that mem_cgroup_charge down to where we're sure it's a migration entry.
We were already under i_mmap_lock or anon_vma->lock, so its GFP_KERNEL was
already inappropriate: change that to GFP_ATOMIC.

It's essential that remove_migration_pte removes all the migration entries,
other crashes follow if not.  So proceed even when the charge fails: normally
it cannot, but after a mem_cgroup_force_empty it might - comment in the code.

Don't uncharge when do_swap_page's call to do_wp_page fails: the page which

And while we're here, remove earlier XXX comment: yes, OR in do_wp_page's
return value (maybe VM_FAULT_WRITE) with do_swap_page's there; but if it
