13 years agomm/futex: fix futex writes on archs with SW tracking of dirty & young
Benjamin Herrenschmidt [Tue, 26 Jul 2011 00:12:32 +0000 (17:12 -0700)]
mm/futex: fix futex writes on archs with SW tracking of dirty & young

I haven't reproduced it myself but the fail scenario is that on such
machines (notably ARM and some embedded powerpc), if you manage to hit
that futex path on a writable page whose dirty bit has gone from the PTE,
you'll livelock inside the kernel from what I can tell.

It will go in a loop of trying the atomic access, failing, trying gup to
"fix it up", getting succcess from gup, go back to the atomic access,
failing again because dirty wasn't fixed etc...

So I think you essentially hang in the kernel.

The scenario is probably rare'ish because affected architecture are
embedded and tend to not swap much (if at all) so we probably rarely hit
the case where dirty is missing or young is missing, but I think Shan has
a piece of SW that can reliably reproduce it using a shared writable
mapping & fork or something like that.

On archs who use SW tracking of dirty & young, a page without dirty is
effectively mapped read-only and a page without young unaccessible in the
PTE.

Additionally, some architectures might lazily flush the TLB when relaxing
write protection (by doing only a local flush), and expect a fault to
invalidate the stale entry if it's still present on another processor.

The futex code assumes that if the "in_atomic()" access -EFAULT's, it can
"fix it up" by causing get_user_pages() which would then be equivalent to
taking the fault.

However that isn't the case.  get_user_pages() will not call
handle_mm_fault() in the case where the PTE seems to have the right
permissions, regardless of the dirty and young state.  It will eventually
update those bits ...  in the struct page, but not in the PTE.

Additionally, it will not handle the lazy TLB flushing that can be
required by some architectures in the fault case.

Basically, gup is the wrong interface for the job.  The patch provides a
more appropriate one which boils down to just calling handle_mm_fault()
since what we are trying to do is simulate a real page fault.

The futex code currently attempts to write to user memory within a
pagefault disabled section, and if that fails, tries to fix it up using
get_user_pages().

This doesn't work on archs where the dirty and young bits are maintained
by software, since they will gate access permission in the TLB, and will
not be updated by gup().

In addition, there's an expectation on some archs that a spurious write
fault triggers a local TLB flush, and that is missing from the picture as
well.

I decided that adding those "features" to gup() would be too much for this
already too complex function, and instead added a new simpler
fixup_user_fault() which is essentially a wrapper around handle_mm_fault()
which the futex code can call.

mm: page allocator: reconsider zones for allocation after direct reclaim

With zone_reclaim_mode enabled, it's possible for zones to be considered
full in the zonelist_cache so they are skipped in the future.  If the
process enters direct reclaim, the ZLC may still consider zones to be full
even after reclaiming pages.  Reconsider all zones for allocation if
direct reclaim returns successfully.

Mel Gorman [Tue, 26 Jul 2011 00:12:29 +0000 (17:12 -0700)]
mm: page allocator: initialise ZLC for first zone eligible for zone_reclaim

There have been a small number of complaints about significant stalls
while copying large amounts of data on NUMA machines reported on a
distribution bugzilla.  In these cases, zone_reclaim was enabled by
default due to large NUMA distances.  In general, the complaints have not
been about the workload itself unless it was a file server (in which case
the recommendation was disable zone_reclaim).

The stalls are mostly due to significant amounts of time spent scanning
the preferred zone for pages to free.  After a failure, it might fallback
to another node (as zonelists are often node-ordered rather than
zone-ordered) but stall quickly again when the next allocation attempt
occurs.  In bad cases, each page allocated results in a full scan of the
preferred zone.

Patch 1 checks the preferred zone for recent allocation failure
        which is particularly important if zone_reclaim has failed
        recently.  This avoids rescanning the zone in the near future and
        instead falling back to another node.  This may hurt node locality
        in some cases but a failure to zone_reclaim is more expensive than
        a remote access.

Patch 2 clears the zlc information after direct reclaim.
        Otherwise, zone_reclaim can mark zones full, direct reclaim can
        reclaim enough pages but the zone is still not considered for
        allocation.

This was tested on a 24-thread 2-node x86_64 machine.  The tests were
focused on large amounts of IO.  All tests were bound to the CPUs on
node-0 to avoid disturbances due to processes being scheduled on different
nodes.  The kernels tested are

This test just creates a large file mapping and writes to it linearly.
Time to completion is again reduced.

The gains are mostly down to two things.  In many cases, there is less
scanning as zone_reclaim simply gives up faster due to recent failures.
The second reason is that memory is used more efficiently.  Instead of
scanning the preferred zone every time, the allocator falls back to
another zone and uses it instead improving overall memory utilisation.

This patch: initialise ZLC for first zone eligible for zone_reclaim.

The zonelist cache (ZLC) is used among other things to record if
zone_reclaim() failed for a particular zone recently.  The intention is to
avoid a high cost scanning extremely long zonelists or scanning within the
zone uselessly.

Currently the zonelist cache is setup only after the first zone has been
considered and zone_reclaim() has been called.  The objective was to avoid
a costly setup but zone_reclaim is itself quite expensive.  If it is
failing regularly such as the first eligible zone having mostly mapped
pages, the cost in scanning and allocation stalls is far higher than the
ZLC initialisation step.

This patch initialises ZLC before the first eligible zone calls
zone_reclaim().  Once initialised, it is checked whether the zone failed
zone_reclaim recently.  If it has, the zone is skipped.  As the first zone
is now being checked, additional care has to be taken about zones marked
full.  A zone can be marked "full" because it should not have enough
unmapped pages for zone_reclaim but this is excessive as direct reclaim or
kswapd may succeed where zone_reclaim fails.  Only mark zones "full" after
zone_reclaim fails if it failed to reclaim enough pages after scanning.

13 years agomm: preallocate page before lock_page() at filemap COW
KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki [Tue, 26 Jul 2011 00:12:27 +0000 (17:12 -0700)]
mm: preallocate page before lock_page() at filemap COW

Currently we are keeping faulted page locked throughout whole __do_fault
call (except for page_mkwrite code path) after calling file system's fault
code.  If we do early COW, we allocate a new page which has to be charged
for a memcg (mem_cgroup_newpage_charge).

This function, however, might block for unbounded amount of time if memcg
oom killer is disabled or fork-bomb is running because the only way out of
the OOM situation is either an external event or OOM-situation fix.

In the end we are keeping the faulted page locked and blocking other
processes from faulting it in which is not good at all because we are
basically punishing potentially an unrelated process for OOM condition in
a different group (I have seen stuck system because of ld-2.11.1.so being
locked).

We can do test easily.

 % cgcreate -g memory:A
 % cgset -r memory.limit_in_bytes=64M A
 % cgset -r memory.memsw.limit_in_bytes=64M A
 % cd kernel_dir; cgexec -g memory:A make -j

Then, the whole system will live-locked until you kill 'make -j'
by hands (or push reboot...) This is because some important page in a
a shared library are locked.

Considering again, the new page is not necessary to be allocated
with lock_page() held. And usual page allocation may dive into
long memory reclaim loop with holding lock_page() and can cause
very long latency.

There are 3 ways.
  1. do allocation/charge before lock_page()
     Pros. - simple and can handle page allocation in the same manner.
             This will reduce holding time of lock_page() in general.
     Cons. - we do page allocation even if ->fault() returns error.

  2. do charge after unlock_page(). Even if charge fails, it's just OOM.
     Pros. - no impact to non-memcg path.
     Cons. - implemenation requires special cares of LRU and we need to modify
             page_add_new_anon_rmap()...

  3. do unlock->charge->lock again method.
     Pros. - no impact to non-memcg path.
     Cons. - This may kill LOCK_PAGE_RETRY optimization. We need to release
             lock and get it again...

This patch moves "charge" and memory allocation for COW page
before lock_page(). Then, we can avoid scanning LRU with holding
a lock on a page and latency under lock_page() will be reduced.

Then, above livelock disappears.

13 years agomm/backing-dev.c: reset bdi min_ratio in bdi_unregister()
Peter Zijlstra [Tue, 26 Jul 2011 00:11:57 +0000 (17:11 -0700)]
mm/backing-dev.c: reset bdi min_ratio in bdi_unregister()

Vito said:

: The system has many usb disks coming and going day to day, with their
: respective bdi's having min_ratio set to 1 when inserted.  It works for
: some time until eventually min_ratio can no longer be set, even when the
: active set of bdi's seen in /sys/class/bdi/*/min_ratio doesn't add up to
: anywhere near 100.
:
: This then leads to an unrelated starvation problem caused by write-heavy
: fuse mounts being used atop the usb disks, a problem the min_ratio setting
: at the underlying devices bdi effectively prevents.

Fix this leakage by resetting the bdi min_ratio when unregistering the
BDI.

13 years agoipc/sem.c: fix race with concurrent semtimedop() timeouts and IPC_RMID

ipc/sem.c: fix race with concurrent semtimedop() timeouts and IPC_RMID

If a semaphore array is removed and in parallel a sleeping task is woken
up (signal or timeout, does not matter), then the woken up task does not
wait until wake_up_sem_queue_do() is completed.  This will cause crashes,
because wake_up_sem_queue_do() will read from a stale pointer.

The fix is simple: Regardless of anything, always call get_queue_result().
This function waits until wake_up_sem_queue_do() has finished it's task.
