slub: do not merge cache if slub_debug contains a never-merge flag

2017-10-21T15:21:36+00:00

[ Upstream commit c6e28895a4372992961888ffaadc9efc643b5bfe ]

In case CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON=n, find_mergeable() gets debug features from
commandline but never checks if there are features from the
SLAB_NEVER_MERGE set.

As a result selected by slub_debug caches are always mergeable if they
have been created without a custom constructor set or without one of the
SLAB_* debug features on.

This moves the SLAB_NEVER_MERGE check below the flags update from
commandline to make sure it won't merge the slab cache if one of the debug
features is on.

mm/memory_hotplug: set magic number to page->freelist instead of page->lru.next

2017-10-21T15:21:36+00:00

[ Upstream commit ddffe98d166f4a93d996d5aa628fd745311fc1e7 ]

To identify that pages of page table are allocated from bootmem
allocator, magic number sets to page->lru.next.

But page->lru list is initialized in reserve_bootmem_region().  So when
calling free_pagetable(), the function cannot find the magic number of
pages.  And free_pagetable() frees the pages by free_reserved_page() not
put_page_bootmem().

But if the pages are allocated from bootmem allocator and used as page
table, the pages have private flag.  So before freeing the pages, we
should clear the private flag by put_page_bootmem().

Before applying the commit 7bfec6f47bb0 ("mm, page_alloc: check multiple
page fields with a single branch"), we could find the following visible
issue:

  BUG: Bad page state in process kworker/u1024:1
  page:ffffea103cfd8040 count:0 mapcount:0 mappi

And the issue still silently occurs.

Until freeing the pages of page table allocated from bootmem allocator,
the page->freelist is never used.  So the patch sets magic number to
page->freelist instead of page->lru.next.

mm, oom_reaper: skip mm structs with mmu notifiers

2017-10-12T09:51:19+00:00

commit 4d4bbd8526a8fbeb2c090ea360211fceff952383 upstream.

Andrea has noticed that the oom_reaper doesn't invalidate the range via
mmu notifiers (mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start/end) and that can
corrupt the memory of the kvm guest for example.

tlb_flush_mmu_tlbonly already invokes mmu notifiers but that is not
sufficient as per Andrea:

 "mmu_notifier_invalidate_range cannot be used in replacement of
  mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start/end. For KVM
  mmu_notifier_invalidate_range is a noop and rightfully so. A MMU
  notifier implementation has to implement either ->invalidate_range
  method or the invalidate_range_start/end methods, not both. And if you
  implement invalidate_range_start/end like KVM is forced to do, calling
  mmu_notifier_invalidate_range in common code is a noop for KVM.

  For those MMU notifiers that can get away only implementing
  ->invalidate_range, the ->invalidate_range is implicitly called by
  mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end(). And only those secondary MMUs
  that share the same pagetable with the primary MMU (like AMD iommuv2)
  can get away only implementing ->invalidate_range"

As the callback is allowed to sleep and the implementation is out of
hand of the MM it is safer to simply bail out if there is an mmu
notifier registered.  In order to not fail too early make the
mm_has_notifiers check under the oom_lock and have a little nap before
failing to give the current oom victim some more time to exit.

mm/cgroup: avoid panic when init with low memory

This is a chicken and egg issue where the kernel try to get free memory
when allocating per node data in mem_cgroup_init(), but in that path
mem_cgroup_soft_limit_reclaim() is called which assumes that these data
are allocated.

As mem_cgroup_soft_limit_reclaim() is best effort, it should return when
these data are not yet allocated.

This patch also fixes potential null pointer access in
mem_cgroup_remove_from_trees() and mem_cgroup_update_tree().

mm: prevent double decrease of nr_reserved_highatomic

2017-09-27T12:39:18+00:00

commit 4855e4a7f29d6d10b0b9c84e189c770c9a94e91e upstream.

There is race between page freeing and unreserved highatomic.

 CPU 0				    CPU 1

    free_hot_cold_page
      mt = get_pfnblock_migratetype
      set_pcppage_migratetype(page, mt)
    				    unreserve_highatomic_pageblock
    				    spin_lock_irqsave(&zone->lock)
    				    move_freepages_block
    				    set_pageblock_migratetype(page)
    				    spin_unlock_irqrestore(&zone->lock)
      free_pcppages_bulk
        __free_one_page(mt) <- mt is stale

By above race, a page on CPU 0 could go non-highorderatomic free list
since the pageblock's type is changed.  By that, unreserve logic of
highorderatomic can decrease reserved count on a same pageblock severak
times and then it will make mismatch between nr_reserved_highatomic and
the number of reserved pageblock.

So, this patch verifies whether the pageblock is highatomic or not and
decrease the count only if the pageblock is highatomic.

mm/memory.c: fix mem_cgroup_oom_disable() call missing

commit de0c799bba2610a8e1e9a50d76a28614520a4cd4 upstream.

Seen while reading the code, in handle_mm_fault(), in the case
arch_vma_access_permitted() is failing the call to
mem_cgroup_oom_disable() is not made.

To fix that, move the call to mem_cgroup_oom_enable() after calling
arch_vma_access_permitted() as it should not have entered the memcg OOM.

mm, madvise: ensure poisoned pages are removed from per-cpu lists

2017-09-07T06:35:39+00:00

commit c461ad6a63b37ba74632e90c063d14823c884247 upstream.

Wendy Wang reported off-list that a RAS HWPOISON-SOFT test case failed
and bisected it to the commit 479f854a207c ("mm, page_alloc: defer
debugging checks of pages allocated from the PCP").

The problem is that a page that was poisoned with madvise() is reused.
The commit removed a check that would trigger if DEBUG_VM was enabled
but re-enabling the check only fixes the problem as a side-effect by
printing a bad_page warning and recovering.

The root of the problem is that an madvise() can leave a poisoned page
on the per-cpu list.  This patch drains all per-cpu lists after pages
are poisoned so that they will not be reused.  Wendy reports that the
test case in question passes with this patch applied.  While this could
be done in a targeted fashion, it is over-complicated for such a rare
operation.

mm/madvise.c: fix freeing of locked page with MADV_FREE

2017-08-30T08:21:47+00:00

commit 263630e8d176d87308481ebdcd78ef9426739c6b upstream.

If madvise(..., MADV_FREE) split a transparent hugepage, it called
put_page() before unlock_page().

This was wrong because put_page() can free the page, e.g. if a
concurrent madvise(..., MADV_DONTNEED) has removed it from the memory
mapping. put_page() then rightfully complained about freeing a locked
page.

Fix this by moving the unlock_page() before put_page().

This bug was found by syzkaller, which encountered the following splat:

mm, shmem: fix handling /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled

2017-08-30T08:21:46+00:00

commit 435c0b87d661da83771c30ed775f7c37eed193fb upstream.

/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled controls if we want
to allocate huge pages when allocate pages for private in-kernel shmem
mount.

Unfortunately, as Dan noticed, I've screwed it up and the only way to
make kernel allocate huge page for the mount is to use "force" there.
All other values will be effectively ignored.
