* numa: add a sysctl for numa_balancingAndi Kleen2014-01-234-2/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a working sysctl to enable/disable automatic numa memory balancing at runtime. This allows us to track down performance problems with this feature and is generally a good idea. This was possible earlier through debugfs, but only with special debugging options set. Also fix the boot message.

* mm/nobootmem.c: add return value check in __alloc_memory_core_early()Philipp Hachtmann2014-01-231-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When memblock_reserve() fails because memblock.reserved.regions cannot be resized, the caller (e.g. alloc_bootmem()) is not informed of the failed allocation. Therefore alloc_bootmem() silently returns the same pointer again and again. This patch adds a check for the return value of memblock_reserve() in __alloc_memory_core().

* memcg: rework memcg_update_kmem_limit synchronizationVladimir Davydov2014-01-231-91/+105
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we take both the memcg_create_mutex and the set_limit_mutex when we enable kmem accounting for a memory cgroup, which makes kmem activation events serialize with both memcg creations and other memcg limit updates (memory.limit, memory.memsw.limit). However, there is no point in such strict synchronization rules there. First, the set_limit_mutex was introduced to keep the memory.limit and memory.memsw.limit values in sync. Since memory.kmem.limit can be set independently of them, it is better to introduce a separate mutex to synchronize against concurrent kmem limit updates. Second, we take the memcg_create_mutex in order to make sure all children of this memcg will be kmem-active as well. For achieving that, it is enough to hold this mutex only while checking if memcg_has_children() though. This guarantees that if a child is added after we checked that the memcg has no children, the newly added cgroup will see its parent kmem-active (of course if the latter succeeded), and call kmem activation for itself. This patch simplifies the locking rules of memcg_update_kmem_limit() according to these considerations.

* memcg: remove KMEM_ACCOUNTED_ACTIVATED flagVladimir Davydov2014-01-231-27/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we have two state bits in mem_cgroup::kmem_account_flags regarding kmem accounting activation, ACTIVATED and ACTIVE. We start kmem accounting only if both flags are set (memcg_can_account_kmem()), plus throughout the code there are several places where we check only the ACTIVE flag, but we never check the ACTIVATED flag alone. These flags are both set from memcg_update_kmem_limit() under the set_limit_mutex, the ACTIVE flag always being set after ACTIVATED, and they never get cleared. That said checking if both flags are set is equivalent to checking only for the ACTIVE flag, and since there is no ACTIVATED flag checks, we can safely remove the ACTIVATED flag, and nothing will change. Let's try to understand what was the reason for introducing these flags. The purpose of the ACTIVE flag is clear - it states that kmem should be accounting to the cgroup. The only requirement for it is that it should be set after we have fully initialized kmem accounting bits for the cgroup and patched all static branches relating to kmem accounting. Since we always check if static branch is enabled before actually considering if we should account (otherwise we wouldn't benefit from static branching), this guarantees us that we won't skip a commit or uncharge after a charge due to an unpatched static branch. Now let's move on to the ACTIVATED bit. As I proved in the beginning of this message, it is absolutely useless, and removing it will change nothing. So what was the reason introducing it? The ACTIVATED flag was introduced by commit a8964b9b84f9 ("memcg: use static branches when code not in use") in order to guarantee that static_key_slow_inc(&memcg_kmem_enabled_key) would be called only once for each memory cgroup when its kmem accounting was activated. The point was that at that time the memcg_update_kmem_limit() function's work-flow looked like this: bool must_inc_static_branch = false; cgroup_lock(); mutex_lock(&set_limit_mutex); if (!memcg->kmem_account_flags && val != RESOURCE_MAX) { /* The kmem limit is set for the first time */ ret = res_counter_set_limit(&memcg->kmem, val); memcg_kmem_set_activated(memcg); must_inc_static_branch = true; } else ret = res_counter_set_limit(&memcg->kmem, val); mutex_unlock(&set_limit_mutex); cgroup_unlock(); if (must_inc_static_branch) { /* We can't do this under cgroup_lock */ static_key_slow_inc(&memcg_kmem_enabled_key); memcg_kmem_set_active(memcg); } So that without the ACTIVATED flag we could race with other threads trying to set the limit and increment the static branching ref-counter more than once. Today we call the whole memcg_update_kmem_limit() function under the set_limit_mutex and this race is impossible. As now we understand why the ACTIVATED bit was introduced and why we don't need it now, and know that removing it will change nothing anyway, let's get rid of it.

* memcg, slab: fix races in per-memcg cache creation/destructionVladimir Davydov2014-01-232-10/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We obtain a per-memcg cache from a root kmem_cache by dereferencing an entry of the root cache's memcg_params::memcg_caches array. If we find no cache for a memcg there on allocation, we initiate the memcg cache creation (see memcg_kmem_get_cache()). The cache creation proceeds asynchronously in memcg_create_kmem_cache() in order to avoid lock clashes, so there can be several threads trying to create the same kmem_cache concurrently, but only one of them may succeed. However, due to a race in the code, it is not always true. The point is that the memcg_caches array can be relocated when we activate kmem accounting for a memcg (see memcg_update_all_caches(), memcg_update_cache_size()). If memcg_update_cache_size() and memcg_create_kmem_cache() proceed concurrently as described below, we can leak a kmem_cache. Asume two threads schedule creation of the same kmem_cache. One of them successfully creates it. Another one should fail then, but if memcg_create_kmem_cache() interleaves with memcg_update_cache_size() as follows, it won't: memcg_create_kmem_cache() memcg_update_cache_size() (called w/o mutexes held) (called with slab_mutex, set_limit_mutex held) ------------------------- ------------------------- mutex_lock(&memcg_cache_mutex) s->memcg_params=kzalloc(...) new_cachep=cache_from_memcg_idx(cachep,idx) // new_cachep==NULL => proceed to creation s->memcg_params->memcg_caches[i] =cur_params->memcg_caches[i] // kmem_cache_create_memcg takes slab_mutex // so we will hang around until // memcg_update_cache_size finishes, but // nothing will prevent it from succeeding so // memcg_caches[idx] will be overwritten in // memcg_register_cache! new_cachep = kmem_cache_create_memcg(...) mutex_unlock(&memcg_cache_mutex) Let's fix this by moving the check for existence of the memcg cache to kmem_cache_create_memcg() to be called under the slab_mutex and make it return NULL if so. A similar race is possible when destroying a memcg cache (see kmem_cache_destroy()). Since memcg_unregister_cache(), which clears the pointer in the memcg_caches array, is called w/o protection, we can race with memcg_update_cache_size() and omit clearing the pointer. Therefore memcg_unregister_cache() should be moved before we release the slab_mutex.

* memcg: fix possible NULL deref while traversing memcg_slab_caches listVladimir Davydov2014-01-231-7/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All caches of the same memory cgroup are linked in the memcg_slab_caches list via kmem_cache::memcg_params::list. This list is traversed, for example, when we read memory.kmem.slabinfo. Since the list actually consists of memcg_cache_params objects, we have to convert an element of the list to a kmem_cache object using memcg_params_to_cache(), which obtains the pointer to the cache from the memcg_params::memcg_caches array of the corresponding root cache. That said the pointer to a kmem_cache in its parent's memcg_params must be initialized before adding the cache to the list, and cleared only after it has been unlinked. Currently it is vice-versa, which can result in a NULL ptr dereference while traversing the memcg_slab_caches list. This patch restores the correct order.

* memcg, slab: fix barrier usage when accessing memcg_cachesVladimir Davydov2014-01-232-15/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Each root kmem_cache has pointers to per-memcg caches stored in its memcg_params::memcg_caches array. Whenever we want to allocate a slab for a memcg, we access this array to get per-memcg cache to allocate from (see memcg_kmem_get_cache()). The access must be lock-free for performance reasons, so we should use barriers to assert the kmem_cache is up-to-date. First, we should place a write barrier immediately before setting the pointer to it in the memcg_caches array in order to make sure nobody will see a partially initialized object. Second, we should issue a read barrier before dereferencing the pointer to conform to the write barrier. However, currently the barrier usage looks rather strange. We have a write barrier *after* setting the pointer and a read barrier *before* reading the pointer, which is incorrect. This patch fixes this.

* memcg, slab: clean up memcg cache initialization/destructionVladimir Davydov2014-01-233-41/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, we have rather a messy function set relating to per-memcg kmem cache initialization/destruction. Per-memcg caches are created in memcg_create_kmem_cache(). This function calls kmem_cache_create_memcg() to allocate and initialize a kmem cache and then "registers" the new cache in the memcg_params::memcg_caches array of the parent cache. During its work-flow, kmem_cache_create_memcg() executes the following memcg-related functions: - memcg_alloc_cache_params(), to initialize memcg_params of the newly created cache; - memcg_cache_list_add(), to add the new cache to the memcg_slab_caches list. On the other hand, kmem_cache_destroy() called on a cache destruction only calls memcg_release_cache(), which does all the work: it cleans the reference to the cache in its parent's memcg_params::memcg_caches, removes the cache from the memcg_slab_caches list, and frees memcg_params. Such an inconsistency between destruction and initialization paths make the code difficult to read, so let's clean this up a bit. This patch moves all the code relating to registration of per-memcg caches (adding to memcg list, setting the pointer to a cache from its parent) to the newly created memcg_register_cache() and memcg_unregister_cache() functions making the initialization and destruction paths look symmetrical.

* memcg: do not use vmalloc for mem_cgroup allocationsVladimir Davydov2014-01-231-22/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The vmalloc was introduced by 33327948782b ("memcgroup: use vmalloc for mem_cgroup allocation"), because at that time MAX_NUMNODES was used for defining the per-node array in the mem_cgroup structure so that the structure could be huge even if the system had the only NUMA node. The situation was significantly improved by commit 45cf7ebd5a03 ("memcg: reduce the size of struct memcg 244-fold"), which made the size of the mem_cgroup structure calculated dynamically depending on the real number of NUMA nodes installed on the system (nr_node_ids), so now there is no point in using vmalloc here: the structure is allocated rarely and on most systems its size is about 1K.

* mm: munlock: fix potential race with THP page splitVlastimil Babka2014-01-231-44/+60
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit ff6a6da60b89 ("mm: accelerate munlock() treatment of THP pages") munlock skips tail pages of a munlocked THP page. There is some attempt to prevent bad consequences of racing with a THP page split, but code inspection indicates that there are two problems that may lead to a non-fatal, yet wrong outcome. First, __split_huge_page_refcount() copies flags including PageMlocked from the head page to the tail pages. Clearing PageMlocked by munlock_vma_page() in the middle of this operation might result in part of tail pages left with PageMlocked flag. As the head page still appears to be a THP page until all tail pages are processed, munlock_vma_page() might think it munlocked the whole THP page and skip all the former tail pages. Before ff6a6da60, those pages would be cleared in further iterations of munlock_vma_pages_range(), but NR_MLOCK would still become undercounted (related the next point). Second, NR_MLOCK accounting is based on call to hpage_nr_pages() after the PageMlocked is cleared. The accounting might also become inconsistent due to race with __split_huge_page_refcount() - undercount when HUGE_PMD_NR is subtracted, but some tail pages are left with PageMlocked set and counted again (only possible before ff6a6da60) - overcount when hpage_nr_pages() sees a normal page (split has already finished), but the parallel split has meanwhile cleared PageMlocked from additional tail pages This patch prevents both problems via extending the scope of lru_lock in munlock_vma_page(). This is convenient because: - __split_huge_page_refcount() takes lru_lock for its whole operation - munlock_vma_page() typically takes lru_lock anyway for page isolation As this becomes a second function where page isolation is done with lru_lock already held, factor this out to a new __munlock_isolate_lru_page() function and clean up the code around.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Documentation/vm/locking is a blast from the past. In the entire git history, it has had precisely Three modifications. Two of those look to be pure renames, and the third was from 2005. The doc contains such gems as: > The page_table_lock is grabbed while holding the > kernel_lock spinning monitor. > Page stealers hold kernel_lock to protect against a bunch of > races. Or this which talks about mmap_sem: > 4. The exception to this rule is expand_stack, which just > takes the read lock and the page_table_lock, this is ok > because it doesn't really modify fields anybody relies on. expand_stack() doesn't take any locks any more directly, and the mmap_sem acquisition was long ago moved up in to the page fault code itself. It could be argued that we need to rewrite this, but it is dangerous to leave it as-is. It will confuse more people than it helps.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | open/release operations require userspace transitions to keep track of the open count and to perform any FS-specific setup. However, for some purely read-only FSs which don't need to perform any setup at open/release time, we can avoid the performance overhead of calling into userspace for open/release calls. This patch adds the necessary support to the fuse kernel modules to prevent open/release operations from hitting in userspace. When the client returns ENOSYS, we avoid sending the subsequent release to userspace, and also remember this so that future opens also don't trigger a userspace operation.

Then D3 and D4 would be delayed, resuling in performance degradation. So, when processing the fsync call, it'd better give higher priority to data IOs than node IOs by assigning WRITE and WRITE_SYNC respectively.
