mm: vmscan: do not writeback filesystem pages in kswapd except in high priority
It is preferable that no dirty pages are dispatched for cleaning from the
page reclaim path. At normal priorities, this patch prevents kswapd
writing pages.
However, page reclaim does have a requirement that pages be freed in a
particular zone. If it is failing to make sufficient progress (reclaiming
< SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX at any priority priority), the priority is raised to
scan more pages. A priority of DEF_PRIORITY - 3 is considered to be the
point where kswapd is getting into trouble reclaiming pages. If this
priority is reached, kswapd will dispatch pages for writing.

mm: vmscan: remove dead code related to lumpy reclaim waiting on pages under writeback
Lumpy reclaim worked with two passes - the first which queued pages for IO

write pages there is some dead code. This patch removes it but direct
reclaim will continue to wait on pages under writeback while in

mm: vmscan: do not writeback filesystem pages in direct reclaim
Testing from the XFS folk revealed that there is still too much I/O from
the end of the LRU in kswapd. Previously it was considered acceptable by
VM people for a small number of pages to be written back from reclaim with
testing generally showing about 0.3% of pages reclaimed were written back
(higher if memory was low). That writing back a small number of pages is
ok has been heavily disputed for quite some time and Dave Chinner
explained it well;
It doesn't have to be a very high number to be a problem. IO
is orders of magnitude slower than the CPU time it takes to
flush a page, so the cost of making a bad flush decision is
very high. And single page writeback from the LRU is almost
always a bad flush decision.
To complicate matters, filesystems respond very differently to requests
from reclaim according to Christoph Hellwig;
xfs tries to write it back if the requester is kswapd
ext4 ignores the request if it's a delayed allocation
btrfs ignores the request
As a result, each filesystem has different performance characteristics
when under memory pressure and there are many pages being dirtied. In
some cases, the request is ignored entirely so the VM cannot depend on the
IO being dispatched.
The objective of this series is to reduce writing of filesystem-backed
pages from reclaim, play nicely with writeback that is already in progress
and throttle reclaim appropriately when writeback pages are encountered.
The assumption is that the flushers will always write pages faster than if
reclaim issues the IO.
A secondary goal is to avoid the problem whereby direct reclaim splices
two potentially deep call stacks together.
There is a potential new problem as reclaim has less control over how long
before a page in a particularly zone or container is cleaned and direct
reclaimers depend on kswapd or flusher threads to do the necessary work.
However, as filesystems sometimes ignore direct reclaim requests already,
it is not expected to be a serious issue.
Patch 1 disables writeback of filesystem pages from direct reclaim
entirely. Anonymous pages are still written.
Patch 2 removes dead code in lumpy reclaim as it is no longer able
to synchronously write pages. This hurts lumpy reclaim but
there is an expectation that compaction is used for hugepage
allocations these days and lumpy reclaim's days are numbered.
Patches 3-4 add warnings to XFS and ext4 if called from
direct reclaim. With patch 1, this "never happens" and is
intended to catch regressions in this logic in the future.
Patch 5 disables writeback of filesystem pages from kswapd unless
the priority is raised to the point where kswapd is considered
to be in trouble.
Patch 6 throttles reclaimers if too many dirty pages are being
encountered and the zones or backing devices are congested.
Patch 7 invalidates dirty pages found at the end of the LRU so they
are reclaimed quickly after being written back rather than
waiting for a reclaimer to find them
I consider this series to be orthogonal to the writeback work but it is
worth noting that the writeback work affects the viability of patch 8 in
particular.
I tested this on ext4 and xfs using fs_mark, a simple writeback test based
on dd and a micro benchmark that does a streaming write to a large mapping
(exercises use-once LRU logic) followed by streaming writes to a mix of
anonymous and file-backed mappings. The command line for fs_mark when
botted with 512M looked something like
./fs_mark -d /tmp/fsmark-2676 -D 100 -N 150 -n 150 -L 25 -t 1 -S0 -s
10485760
The number of files was adjusted depending on the amount of available
memory so that the files created was about 3xRAM. For multiple threads,
the -d switch is specified multiple times.
The test machine is x86-64 with an older generation of AMD processor with
4 cores. The underlying storage was 4 disks configured as RAID-0 as this
was the best configuration of storage I had available. Swap is on a
separate disk. Dirty ratio was tuned to 40% instead of the default of
20%.
Testing was run with and without monitors to both verify that the patches
were operating as expected and that any performance gain was real and not
due to interference from monitors.
Here is a summary of results based on testing XFS.

Up until 512-4X, the FSmark improvements were statistically significant.
For the 4X and 16X tests the results were within standard deviations but
just barely. The time to completion for all tests is improved which is an
important result. In general, kswapd efficiency is not affected by
skipping dirty pages.

All FSMark tests up to 16X had statistically significant improvements.
For the most part, tests are completing faster with the exception of the
streaming writes to a mixture of anonymous and file-backed mappings which
were slower in two cases
In the cases where the mmap-strm tests were slower, there was more
swapping due to dirty pages being skipped. The number of additional pages
swapped is almost identical to the fewer number of pages written from
reclaim. In other words, roughly the same number of pages were reclaimed
but swapping was slower. As the test is a bit unrealistic and stresses
memory heavily, the small shift is acceptable.

Unlike the other tests, the fsmark results are not statistically
significant but the min and max times are both improved and for the most
part, tests completed faster.
There are other indications that this is an improvement as well. For
example, in the vast majority of cases, there were fewer pages scanned by
direct reclaim implying in many cases that stalls due to direct reclaim
are reduced. KSwapd is scanning more due to skipping dirty pages which is
unfortunate but the CPU usage is still acceptable
In an earlier set of tests, I used blktrace and in almost all cases
throughput throughout the entire test was higher. However, I ended up
discarding those results as recording blktrace data was too heavy for my
liking.
On a laptop, I plugged in a USB stick and ran a similar tests of tests
using it as backing storage. A desktop environment was running and for
the entire duration of the tests, firefox and gnome terminal were
launching and exiting to vaguely simulate a user.

1024M-xfs Avg wait ms mmap-strm 3400.25 3852.53
The mmap-strm results were hurt because firefox launching had a tendency
to push the test out of memory. On the postive side, firefox launched
marginally faster with the patches applied. Time to completion for many
tests was faster but more importantly - the "Avg wait" time as measured by
iostat was far lower implying the system would be more responsive. It was
also the case that "Avg wait ms" on the root filesystem was lower. I
tested it manually and while the system felt slightly more responsive
while copying data to a USB stick, it was marginal enough that it could be
my imagination.
This patch: do not writeback filesystem pages in direct reclaim.
When kswapd is failing to keep zones above the min watermark, a process
will enter direct reclaim in the same manner kswapd does. If a dirty page
is encountered during the scan, this page is written to backing storage
using mapping->writepage.
This causes two problems. First, it can result in very deep call stacks,
particularly if the target storage or filesystem are complex. Some
filesystems ignore write requests from direct reclaim as a result. The
second is that a single-page flush is inefficient in terms of IO. While
there is an expectation that the elevator will merge requests, this does
not always happen. Quoting Christoph Hellwig;
The elevator has a relatively small window it can operate on,
and can never fix up a bad large scale writeback pattern.
This patch prevents direct reclaim writing back filesystem pages by
checking if current is kswapd. Anonymous pages are still written to swap
as there is not the equivalent of a flusher thread for anonymous pages.
If the dirty pages cannot be written back, they are placed back on the LRU
lists. There is now a direct dependency on dirty page balancing to
prevent too many pages in the system being dirtied which would prevent
reclaim making forward progress.

mm: distinguish between mlocked and pinned pages
Some kernel components pin user space memory (infiniband and perf) (by
increasing the page count) and account that memory as "mlocked".
The difference between mlocking and pinning is:
A. mlocked pages are marked with PG_mlocked and are exempt from
swapping. Page migration may move them around though.
They are kept on a special LRU list.
B. Pinned pages cannot be moved because something needs to
directly access physical memory. They may not be on any
LRU list.
I recently saw an mlockalled process where mm->locked_vm became
bigger than the virtual size of the process (!) because some
memory was accounted for twice:
Once when the page was mlocked and once when the Infiniband
layer increased the refcount because it needt to pin the RDMA
memory.
This patch introduces a separate counter for pinned pages and
accounts them seperately.

userspace can set the value to something else itself before the old value
is reinstated. That results in userspace setting current's oom_score_adj
to a different value and then the kernel immediately setting it back to
its previous value without notification.
To fix this, a new compare_swap_oom_score_adj() function is introduced
with the same semantics as the compare and swap CAS instruction, or
CMPXCHG on x86. It is used to reinstate the previous value of
oom_score_adj if and only if the present value is the same as the old
value.

oom: remove oom_disable_count
This removes mm->oom_disable_count entirely since it's unnecessary and
currently buggy. The counter was intended to be per-process but it's
currently decremented in the exit path for each thread that exits, causing
it to underflow.
The count was originally intended to prevent oom killing threads that
share memory with threads that cannot be killed since it doesn't lead to
future memory freeing. The counter could be fixed to represent all
threads sharing the same mm, but it's better to remove the count since:
- it is possible that the OOM_DISABLE thread sharing memory with the
victim is waiting on that thread to exit and will actually cause
future memory freeing, and
- there is no guarantee that a thread is disabled from oom killing just
because another thread sharing its mm is oom disabled.

oom: avoid killing kthreads if they assume the oom killed thread's mm
After selecting a task to kill, the oom killer iterates all processes and
kills all other threads that share the same mm_struct in different thread
groups. It would not otherwise be helpful to kill a thread if its memory
would not be subsequently freed.
A kernel thread, however, may assume a user thread's mm by using
use_mm(). This is only temporary and should not result in sending a
SIGKILL to that kthread.
This patch ensures that only user threads and not kthreads are sent a
SIGKILL if they share the same mm_struct as the oom killed task.

vmscan: add block plug for page reclaim
per-task block plug can reduce block queue lock contention and increase
request merge. Currently page reclaim doesn't support it. I originally
thought page reclaim doesn't need it, because kswapd thread count is
limited and file cache write is done at flusher mostly.
When I test a workload with heavy swap in a 4-node machine, each CPU is
doing direct page reclaim and swap. This causes block queue lock
contention. In my test, without below patch, the CPU utilization is about
2% ~ 7%. With the patch, the CPU utilization is about 1% ~ 3%. Disk
throughput isn't changed. This should improve normal kswapd write and
file cache write too (increase request merge for example), but might not
be so obvious as I explain above.

Cross Memory Attach
The basic idea behind cross memory attach is to allow MPI programs doing
intra-node communication to do a single copy of the message rather than a
double copy of the message via shared memory.
The following patch attempts to achieve this by allowing a destination
process, given an address and size from a source process, to copy memory
directly from the source process into its own address space via a system
call. There is also a symmetrical ability to copy from the current
process's address space into a destination process's address space.
- Use of /proc/pid/mem has been considered, but there are issues with
using it:
- Does not allow for specifying iovecs for both src and dest, assuming
preadv or pwritev was implemented either the area read from or
written to would need to be contiguous.
- Currently mem_read allows only processes who are currently
ptrace'ing the target and are still able to ptrace the target to read
from the target. This check could possibly be moved to the open call,
but its not clear exactly what race this restriction is stopping
(reason appears to have been lost)
- Having to send the fd of /proc/self/mem via SCM_RIGHTS on unix
domain socket is a bit ugly from a userspace point of view,
especially when you may have hundreds if not (eventually) thousands
of processes that all need to do this with each other
- Doesn't allow for some future use of the interface we would like to
consider adding in the future (see below)
- Interestingly reading from /proc/pid/mem currently actually
involves two copies! (But this could be fixed pretty easily)
As mentioned previously use of vmsplice instead was considered, but has
problems. Since you need the reader and writer working co-operatively if
the pipe is not drained then you block. Which requires some wrapping to
do non blocking on the send side or polling on the receive. In all to all
communication it requires ordering otherwise you can deadlock. And in the
example of many MPI tasks writing to one MPI task vmsplice serialises the
copying.
There are some cases of MPI collectives where even a single copy interface
does not get us the performance gain we could. For example in an
MPI_Reduce rather than copy the data from the source we would like to
instead use it directly in a mathops (say the reduce is doing a sum) as
this would save us doing a copy. We don't need to keep a copy of the data
from the source. I haven't implemented this, but I think this interface
could in the future do all this through the use of the flags - eg could
specify the math operation and type and the kernel rather than just
copying the data would apply the specified operation between the source
and destination and store it in the destination.
Although we don't have a "second user" of the interface (though I've had
some nibbles from people who may be interested in using it for intra
process messaging which is not MPI). This interface is something which
hardware vendors are already doing for their custom drivers to implement
fast local communication. And so in addition to this being useful for
OpenMPI it would mean the driver maintainers don't have to fix things up
when the mm changes.
There was some discussion about how much faster a true zero copy would
go. Here's a link back to the email with some testing I did on that:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=
130105930902915&w=2
There is a basic man page for the proposed interface here:
http://ozlabs.org/~cyeoh/cma/process_vm_readv.txt
This has been implemented for x86 and powerpc, other architecture should
mainly (I think) just need to add syscall numbers for the process_vm_readv
and process_vm_writev. There are 32 bit compatibility versions for
64-bit kernels.
For arch maintainers there are some simple tests to be able to quickly
verify that the syscalls are working correctly here:

missing initialization steps are done later, before the I2C bus is

We were able to reproduce this bug when our guest triggered #SS and the

KVM: s390: fix register setting
KVM common code does vcpu_load prior to calling our arch ioctls and
vcpu_put after we're done here. Via the kvm_arch_vcpu_load/put
callbacks we do load the fpu and access register state into the
processor, which saves us moving the state on every SIE exit the
kernel handles. However this breaks register setting from userspace,
because of the following sequence:
1a. vcpu load stores userspace register content
1b. vcpu load loads guest register content
2. kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_fpu/sregs updates saved guest register content
3a. vcpu put stores the guest registers and overwrites the new content
3b. vcpu put loads the userspace register set again
This patch loads the new guest register state into the cpu, so that the correct
(new) set of guest registers will be stored in step 3a.

ipv6: fix route lookup in addrconf_prefix_rcv()
The route lookup to find a previously auto-configured route for a prefixes used
to use rt6_lookup(), with the prefix from the RA used as an address. However,
that kind of lookup ignores routing tables, the prefix length and route flags,
so when there were other matching routes, even in different tables and/or with
a different prefix length, the wrong route would be manipulated.
Now, a new function "addrconf_get_prefix_route()" is used for the route lookup,
which searches in RT6_TABLE_PREFIX and takes the prefix-length and route flags

bonding: eliminate bond_close race conditions
This patch resolves two sets of race conditions.
Mitsuo Hayasaka <mitsuo.hayasaka.hu@hitachi.com> reported the
first, as follows:
The bond_close() calls cancel_delayed_work() to cancel delayed works.
It, however, cannot cancel works that were already queued in workqueue.
The bond_open() initializes work->data, and proccess_one_work() refers
get_work_cwq(work)->wq->flags. The get_work_cwq() returns NULL when
work->data has been initialized. Thus, a panic occurs.
He included a patch that converted the cancel_delayed_work calls
in bond_close to flush_delayed_work_sync, which eliminated the above
problem.
His patch is incorporated, at least in principle, into this
patch. In this patch, we use cancel_delayed_work_sync in place of
flush_delayed_work_sync, and also convert bond_uninit in addition to
bond_close.
This conversion to _sync, however, opens new races between
bond_close and three periodically executing workqueue functions:
bond_mii_monitor, bond_alb_monitor and bond_activebackup_arp_mon.
The race occurs because bond_close and bond_uninit are always
called with RTNL held, and these workqueue functions may acquire RTNL to
perform failover-related activities. If bond_close or bond_uninit is
waiting in cancel_delayed_work_sync, deadlock occurs.
These deadlocks are resolved by having the workqueue functions
acquire RTNL conditionally. If the rtnl_trylock() fails, the functions
reschedule and return immediately. For the cases that are attempting to
perform link failover, a delay of 1 is used; for the other cases, the
normal interval is used (as those activities are not as time critical).
Additionally, the bond_mii_monitor function now stores the delay
in a variable (mimicing the structure of activebackup_arp_mon).
Lastly, all of the above renders the kill_timers sentinel moot,
and therefore it has been removed.

leases: fix write-open/read-lease race
In setlease, we use i_writecount to decide whether we can give out a
read lease.
In open, we break leases before incrementing i_writecount.
There is therefore a window between the break lease and the i_writecount
increment when setlease could add a new read lease.
This would leave us with a simultaneous write open and read lease, which

vfs: do (nearly) lockless generic_file_llseek
The i_mutex lock use of generic _file_llseek hurts. Independent processes
accessing the same file synchronize over a single lock, even though
they have no need for synchronization at all.
Under high utilization this can cause llseek to scale very poorly on larger
systems.
This patch does some rethinking of the llseek locking model:
First the 64bit f_pos is not necessarily atomic without locks
on 32bit systems. This can already cause races with read() today.
This was discussed on linux-kernel in the past and deemed acceptable.
The patch does not change that.
Let's look at the different seek variants:
SEEK_SET: Doesn't really need any locking.
If there's a race one writer wins, the other loses.
For 32bit the non atomic update races against read()
stay the same. Without a lock they can also happen
against write() now. The read() race was deemed
acceptable in past discussions, and I think if it's
ok for read it's ok for write too.
=> Don't need a lock.
SEEK_END: This behaves like SEEK_SET plus it reads
the maximum size too. Reading the maximum size would have the
32bit atomic problem. But luckily we already have a way to read
the maximum size without locking (i_size_read), so we
can just use that instead.
Without i_mutex there is no synchronization with write() anymore,
however since the write() update is atomic on 64bit it just behaves
like another racy SEEK_SET. On non atomic 32bit it's the same
as SEEK_SET.
=> Don't need a lock, but need to use i_size_read()
SEEK_CUR: This has a read-modify-write race window
on the same file. One could argue that any application
doing unsynchronized seeks on the same file is already broken.
But for the sake of not adding a regression here I'm
using the file->f_lock to synchronize this. Using this
lock is much better than the inode mutex because it doesn't
synchronize between processes.
=> So still need a lock, but can use a f_lock.
This patch implements this new scheme in generic_file_llseek.
I dropped generic_file_llseek_unlocked and changed all callers.

Add inlines to all the submission path functions. While this increases
code size it also gives gcc a lot of optimization opportunities
in this critical hotpath.
In particular -- together with some other changes -- this
allows gcc to get rid of the unnecessary clearing of
sdio at the beginning and optimize the messy parameter passing.
Any non inlining of a function which takes a sdio parameter
would break this optimization because they cannot be done if the
address of a structure is taken.
Note that benefits are only seen with CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING

This also gives gcc more optimization potential because it can easier

- Add the f_flags field to struct compat_statfs
- Copy f_flags to userspace in case someone cares.
- Use __clear_user to copy the f_spare field to userspace

On some architectures f_spare is has 5 ints and on some

x86, random: Verify RDRAND functionality and allow it to be disabled

random: Add support for architectural random hooks
Fix up trivial conflicts in drivers/char/random.c: the architectural
random hooks touched "get_random_int()" that was simplified to use MD5
and not do the keyptr thing any more (see commit
6e5714eaf77d: "net:
Compute protocol sequence numbers and fragment IDs using MD5").
