commit 649920c6ab93429b94bc7c1aa7c0e8395351be32 upstream.
In powerpc servers with large memory(32TB), we watched several soft
lockups for hugepage under stress tests.
The call traces are as follows:
1.
get_page_from_freelist+0x2d8/0xd50
__alloc_pages_nodemask+0x180/0xc20
alloc_fresh_huge_page+0xb0/0x190
set_max_huge_pages+0x164/0x3b0
2.
prep_new_huge_page+0x5c/0x100
alloc_fresh_huge_page+0xc8/0x190
set_max_huge_pages+0x164/0x3b0
This patch fixes such soft lockups. It is safe to call cond_resched()
there because it is out of spin_lock/unlock section.

commit df08c32ce3be5be138c1dbfcba203314a3a7cd6f upstream.
The name for a bdi of a gendisk is derived from the gendisk's devt.
However, since the gendisk is destroyed before the bdi it leaves a
window where a new gendisk could dynamically reuse the same devt while a
bdi with the same name is still live. Arrange for the bdi to hold a
reference against its "owner" disk device while it is registered.
Otherwise we can hit sysfs duplicate name collisions like the following:

commit 615d66c37c755c49ce022c9e5ac0875d27d2603d upstream.
Since commit 73f576c04b94 ("mm: memcontrol: fix cgroup creation failure
after many small jobs") swap entries do not pin memcg->css.refcnt
directly. Instead, they pin memcg->id.ref. So we should adjust the
reference counters accordingly when moving swap charges between cgroups.

commit 1f47b61fb4077936465dcde872a4e5cc4fe708da upstream.
An offline memory cgroup might have anonymous memory or shmem left
charged to it and no swap. Since only swap entries pin the id of an
offline cgroup, such a cgroup will have no id and so an attempt to
swapout its anon/shmem will not store memory cgroup info in the swap
cgroup map. As a result, memcg->swap or memcg->memsw will never get
uncharged from it and any of its ascendants.
Fix this by always charging swapout to the first ancestor cgroup that
hasn't released its id yet.

commit 73f576c04b9410ed19660f74f97521bee6e1c546 upstream.
The memory controller has quite a bit of state that usually outlives the
cgroup and pins its CSS until said state disappears. At the same time
it imposes a 16-bit limit on the CSS ID space to economically store IDs
in the wild. Consequently, when we use cgroups to contain frequent but
small and short-lived jobs that leave behind some page cache, we quickly
run into the 64k limitations of outstanding CSSs. Creating a new cgroup
fails with -ENOSPC while there are only a few, or even no user-visible
cgroups in existence.
Although pinning CSSs past cgroup removal is common, there are only two
instances that actually need an ID after a cgroup is deleted: cache
shadow entries and swapout records.
Cache shadow entries reference the ID weakly and can deal with the CSS
having disappeared when it's looked up later. They pose no hurdle.
Swap-out records do need to pin the css to hierarchically attribute
swapins after the cgroup has been deleted; though the only pages that
remain swapped out after offlining are tmpfs/shmem pages. And those
references are under the user's control, so they are manageable.
This patch introduces a private 16-bit memcg ID and switches swap and
cache shadow entries over to using that. This ID can then be recycled
after offlining when the CSS remains pinned only by objects that don't
specifically need it.
This script demonstrates the problem by faulting one cache page in a new
cgroup and deleting it again:
set -e
mkdir -p pages
for x in `seq 128000`; do
[ $((x % 1000)) -eq 0 ] && echo $x
mkdir /cgroup/foo
echo $$ >/cgroup/foo/cgroup.procs
echo trex >pages/$x
echo $$ >/cgroup/cgroup.procs
rmdir /cgroup/foo
done
When run on an unpatched kernel, we eventually run out of possible IDs
even though there are no visible cgroups:
[root@ham ~]# ./cssidstress.sh
[...]
65000
mkdir: cannot create directory '/cgroup/foo': No space left on device
After this patch, the IDs get released upon cgroup destruction and the
cache and css objects get released once memory reclaim kicks in.

uninitialised
commit ef70b6f41cda6270165a6f27b2548ed31cfa3cb2 upstream.
early_page_uninitialised looks up an arbitrary PFN. While a machine
without node 0 will boot with "mm, page_alloc: Always return a valid
node from early_pfn_to_nid", it works because it assumes that nodes are
always in PFN order. This is not guaranteed so this patch adds
robustness by always checking if the node being checked is online.

commit e4568d3803852d00effd41dcdd489e726b998879 upstream.
early_pfn_to_nid can return node 0 if a PFN is invalid on machines that

The problem is that early_page_uninitialised uses the early_pfn_to_nid
helper which returns node 0 for invalid PFNs. No caller of
early_pfn_to_nid cares except early_page_uninitialised. This patch has
early_pfn_to_nid always return a valid node.

commit a46cbf3bc53b6a93fb84a5ffb288c354fa807954 upstream.
It's possible to isolate some freepages in a pageblock and then fail
split_free_page() due to the low watermark check. In this case, we hit
VM_BUG_ON() because the freeing scanner terminated early without a
contended lock or enough freepages.
This should never have been a VM_BUG_ON() since it's not a fatal
condition. It should have been a VM_WARN_ON() at best, or even handled
gracefully.
Regardless, we need to terminate anytime the full pageblock scan was not
done. The logic belongs in isolate_freepages_block(), so handle its
state gracefully by terminating the pageblock loop and making a note to
restart at the same pageblock next time since it was not possible to
complete the scan this time.

commit a4f04f2c6955aff5e2c08dcb40aca247ff4d7370 upstream.
If the memory compaction free scanner cannot successfully split a free
page (only possible due to per-zone low watermark), terminate the free
scanner rather than continuing to scan memory needlessly. If the
watermark is insufficient for a free page of order <= cc->order, then
terminate the scanner since all future splits will also likely fail.
This prevents the compaction freeing scanner from scanning all memory on
very large zones (very noticeable for zones > 128GB, for instance) when
all splits will likely fail while holding zone->lock.
compaction_alloc() iterating a 128GB zone has been benchmarked to take
over 400ms on some systems whereas any free page isolated and ready to
be split ends up failing in split_free_page() because of the low
watermark check and thus the iteration continues.
The next time compaction occurs, the freeing scanner will likely start
at the end of the zone again since no success was made previously and we
get the same lengthy iteration until the zone is brought above the low
watermark. All thp page faults can take >400ms in such a state without
this fix.

commit e838a45f9392a5bd2be1cd3ab0b16ae85857461c upstream.
Commit d0164adc89f6 ("mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable
to sleep, unwilling to sleep and avoiding waking kswapd") modified
__GFP_WAIT to explicitly identify the difference between atomic callers
and those that were unwilling to sleep. Later the definition was
removed entirely.
The GFP_RECLAIM_MASK is the set of flags that affect watermark checking
and reclaim behaviour but __GFP_ATOMIC was never added. Without it,
atomic users of the slab allocator strip the __GFP_ATOMIC flag and
cannot access the page allocator atomic reserves. This patch addresses
the problem.
The user-visible impact depends on the workload but potentially atomic
allocations unnecessarily fail without this path.

commit 7f556567036cb7f89aabe2f0954b08566b4efb53 upstream.
The well-spotted fallocate undo fix is good in most cases, but not when
fallocate failed on the very first page. index 0 then passes lend -1
to shmem_undo_range(), and that has two bad effects: (a) that it will
undo every fallocation throughout the file, unrestricted by the current
range; but more importantly (b) it can cause the undo to hang, because
lend -1 is treated as truncation, which makes it keep on retrying until
every page has gone, but those already fully instantiated will never go
away. Big thank you to xfstests generic/269 which demonstrates this.

destruction
commit 6710e594f71ccaad8101bc64321152af7cd9ea28 upstream.
For non-atomic allocations, pcpu_alloc() can try to extend the area
map synchronously after dropping pcpu_lock; however, the extension
wasn't synchronized against chunk destruction and the chunk might get
freed while extension is in progress.
This patch fixes the bug by putting most of non-atomic allocations
under pcpu_alloc_mutex to synchronize against pcpu_balance_work which
is responsible for async chunk management including destruction.

commit 62a584fe05eef1f80ed49a286a29328f1a224fb9 upstream.
As vm.dirty_[background_]bytes can't be applied verbatim to multiple
cgroup writeback domains, they get converted to percentages in
domain_dirty_limits() and applied the same way as
vm.dirty_[background]ratio. However, if the specified bytes is lower
than 1% of available memory, the calculated ratios become zero and the
writeback domain gets throttled constantly.
Fix it by using per-PAGE_SIZE instead of percentage for ratio
calculations. Also, the updated DIV_ROUND_UP() usages now should
yield 1/4096 (0.0244%) as the minimum ratio as long as the specified
bytes are above zero.

commit 4b50bcc7eda4d3cc9e3f2a0aa60e590fedf728c5 upstream.
Since commit 92923ca3aace ("mm: meminit: only set page reserved in the
memblock region") the reserved bit is set on reserved memblock regions.
However start and end address are passed as unsigned long. This is only
32bit on i386, so it can end up marking the wrong pages reserved for
ranges at 4GB and above.
This was observed on a 32bit Xen dom0 which was booted with initial
memory set to a value below 4G but allowing to balloon in memory
(dom0_mem=1024M for example). This would define a reserved bootmem
region for the additional memory (for example on a 8GB system there was
a reverved region covering the 4GB-8GB range). But since the addresses
were passed on as unsigned long, this was actually marking all pages
from 0 to 4GB as reserved.

commit 44f43e99fe70833058482d183e99fdfd11220996 upstream.
zs_can_compact() has two race conditions in its core calculation:
unsigned long obj_wasted = zs_stat_get(class, OBJ_ALLOCATED) -
zs_stat_get(class, OBJ_USED);
1) classes are not locked, so the numbers of allocated and used
objects can change by the concurrent ops happening on other CPUs
2) shrinker invokes it from preemptible context
Depending on the circumstances, thus, OBJ_ALLOCATED can become
less than OBJ_USED, which can result in either very high or
negative `total_scan' value calculated later in do_shrink_slab().
do_shrink_slab() has some logic to prevent those cases:
vmscan: shrink_slab: zs_shrinker_scan+0x0/0x28 [zsmalloc] negative objects to delete nr=-62
vmscan: shrink_slab: zs_shrinker_scan+0x0/0x28 [zsmalloc] negative objects to delete nr=-62
vmscan: shrink_slab: zs_shrinker_scan+0x0/0x28 [zsmalloc] negative objects to delete nr=-64
vmscan: shrink_slab: zs_shrinker_scan+0x0/0x28 [zsmalloc] negative objects to delete nr=-62
vmscan: shrink_slab: zs_shrinker_scan+0x0/0x28 [zsmalloc] negative objects to delete nr=-62
vmscan: shrink_slab: zs_shrinker_scan+0x0/0x28 [zsmalloc] negative objects to delete nr=-62
However, due to the way `total_scan' is calculated, not every
shrinker->count_objects() overflow can be spotted and handled.
To demonstrate the latter, I added some debugging code to do_shrink_slab()
(x86_64) and the results were:
vmscan: OVERFLOW: shrinker->count_objects() == -1 [18446744073709551615]
vmscan: but total_scan > 0: 92679974445502
vmscan: resulting total_scan: 92679974445502
[..]
vmscan: OVERFLOW: shrinker->count_objects() == -1 [18446744073709551615]
vmscan: but total_scan > 0: 22634041808232578
vmscan: resulting total_scan: 22634041808232578
Even though shrinker->count_objects() has returned an overflowed value,
the resulting `total_scan' is positive, and, what is more worrisome, it
is insanely huge. This value is getting used later on in
shrinker->scan_objects() loop:
while (total_scan >= batch_size ||
total_scan >= freeable) {
unsigned long ret;
unsigned long nr_to_scan = min(batch_size, total_scan);
shrinkctl->nr_to_scan = nr_to_scan;
ret = shrinker->scan_objects(shrinker, shrinkctl);
if (ret == SHRINK_STOP)
break;
freed += ret;
count_vm_events(SLABS_SCANNED, nr_to_scan);
total_scan -= nr_to_scan;
cond_resched();
}
`total_scan >= batch_size' is true for a very-very long time and
'total_scan >= freeable' is also true for quite some time, because
`freeable < 0' and `total_scan' is large enough, for example,
22634041808232578. The only break condition, in the given scheme of
things, is shrinker->scan_objects() == SHRINK_STOP test, which is a
bit too weak to rely on, especially in heavy zsmalloc-usage scenarios.
To fix the issue, take a pool stat snapshot and use it instead of
racy zs_stat_get() calls.

commit 74d369443325063a5f0260e63971decb950fd8fa upstream.
Commit 947e9762a8dd ("writeback: update wb_over_bg_thresh() to use
wb_domain aware operations") unintentionally changed this function's
meaning from "are there more dirty pages than the background writeback
threshold" to "are there more dirty pages than the writeback threshold".
The background writeback threshold is typically half of the writeback
threshold, so this had the effect of raising the number of dirty pages
required to cause a writeback worker to perform background writeout.
This can cause a very severe performance regression when a BDI uses
BDI_CAP_STRICTLIMIT because balance_dirty_pages() and the writeback worker
can now disagree on whether writeback should be initiated.
For example, in a system having 1GB of RAM, a single spinning disk, and a
"pass-through" FUSE filesystem mounted over the disk, application code
mmapped a 128MB file on the disk and was randomly dirtying pages in that
mapping.
Because FUSE uses strictlimit and has a default max_ratio of only 1%, in
balance_dirty_pages, thresh is ~200, bg_thresh is ~100, and the
dirty_freerun_ceiling is the average of those, ~150. So, it pauses the
dirtying processes when we have 151 dirty pages and wakes up a background
writeback worker. But the worker tests the wrong threshold (200 instead of
100), so it does not initiate writeback and just returns.
Thus, balance_dirty_pages keeps looping, sleeping and then waking up the
worker who will do nothing. It remains stuck in this state until the few
dirty pages that we have finally expire and we write them back for that
reason. Then the whole process repeats, resulting in near-zero throughput
through the FUSE BDI.
The fix is to call the parameterized variant of wb_calc_thresh, so that the
worker will do writeback if the bg_thresh is exceeded which was the
behavior before the referenced commit.

commit bc22af74f271ef76b2e6f72f3941f91f0da3f5f8 upstream.
Khugepaged attempts to raise min_free_kbytes if its set too low.
However, on boot khugepaged sets min_free_kbytes first from
subsys_initcall(), and then the mm 'core' over-rides min_free_kbytes
after from init_per_zone_wmark_min(), via a module_init() call.
Khugepaged used to use a late_initcall() to set min_free_kbytes (such
that it occurred after the core initialization), however this was
removed when the initialization of min_free_kbytes was integrated into
the starting of the khugepaged thread.
The fix here is simply to invoke the core initialization using a
core_initcall() instead of module_init(), such that the previous
initialization ordering is restored. I didn't restore the
late_initcall() since start_stop_khugepaged() already sets
min_free_kbytes via set_recommended_min_free_kbytes().
This was noticed when we had a number of page allocation failures when
moving a workload to a kernel with this new initialization ordering. On
an 8GB system this restores min_free_kbytes back to 67584 from 11365
when CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=y is set and either
CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_ALWAYS=y or
CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_MADVISE=y.

commit 32a4e169039927bfb6ee9f0ccbbe3a8aaf13a4bc upstream.
Instead of using "zswap" as the name for all zpools created, add an
atomic counter and use "zswap%x" with the counter number for each zpool
created, to provide a unique name for each new zpool.
As zsmalloc, one of the zpool implementations, requires/expects a unique
name for each pool created, zswap should provide a unique name. The
zsmalloc pool creation does not fail if a new pool with a conflicting
name is created, unless CONFIG_ZSMALLOC_STAT is enabled; in that case,
zsmalloc pool creation fails with -ENOMEM. Then zswap will be unable to
change its compressor parameter if its zpool is zsmalloc; it also will
be unable to change its zpool parameter back to zsmalloc, if it has any
existing old zpool using zsmalloc with page(s) in it. Attempts to
change the parameters will result in failure to create the zpool. This
changes zswap to provide a unique name for each zpool creation.

commit 14af4a5e9b26ad251f81c174e8a43f3e179434a5 upstream.
/proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh warns nr_isolated_anon and nr_isolated_file go
increasingly negative under compaction: which would add delay when
should be none, or no delay when should delay. The bug in compaction
was due to a recent mmotm patch, but much older instance of the bug was
also noticed in isolate_migratepages_range() which is used for CMA and
gigantic hugepage allocations.
The bug is caused by putback_movable_pages() in an error path
decrementing the isolated counters without them being previously
incremented by acct_isolated(). Fix isolate_migratepages_range() by
removing the error-path putback, thus reaching acct_isolated() with
migratepages still isolated, and leaving putback to caller like most
other places do.

commit d7e69488bd04de165667f6bc741c1c0ec6042ab9 upstream.
Currently, migration code increses num_poisoned_pages on *failed*
migration page as well as successfully migrated one at the trial of
memory-failure. It will make the stat wrong. As well, it marks the
page as PG_HWPoison even if the migration trial failed. It would mean
we cannot recover the corrupted page using memory-failure facility.
This patches fixes it.

commit 28093f9f34cedeaea0f481c58446d9dac6dd620f upstream.
In gather_pte_stats() a THP pmd is cast into a pte, which is wrong
because the layouts may differ depending on the architecture. On s390
this will lead to inaccurate numa_maps accounting in /proc because of
misguided pte_present() and pte_dirty() checks on the fake pte.
On other architectures pte_present() and pte_dirty() may work by chance,
but there may be an issue with direct-access (dax) mappings w/o
underlying struct pages when HAVE_PTE_SPECIAL is set and THP is
available. In vm_normal_page() the fake pte will be checked with
pte_special() and because there is no "special" bit in a pmd, this will
always return false and the VM_PFNMAP | VM_MIXEDMAP checking will be
skipped. On dax mappings w/o struct pages, an invalid struct page
pointer would then be returned that can crash the kernel.
This patch fixes the numa_maps THP handling by introducing new "_pmd"
variants of the can_gather_numa_stats() and vm_normal_page() functions.

commit 264a0ae164bc0e9144bebcd25ff030d067b1a878 upstream.
Hello,
So, this ended up a lot simpler than I originally expected. I tested
it lightly and it seems to work fine. Petr, can you please test these
two patches w/o the lru drain drop patch and see whether the problem
is gone?
Thanks.
------ 8< ------
If charge moving is used, memcg performs relabeling of the affected
pages from its ->attach callback which is called under both
cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem and thus can't create new kthreads. This is
fragile as various operations may depend on workqueues making forward
progress which relies on the ability to create new kthreads.
There's no reason to perform charge moving from ->attach which is deep
in the task migration path. Move it to ->post_attach which is called
after the actual migration is finished and cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem is
dropped.
* move_charge_struct->mm is added and ->can_attach is now responsible
for pinning and recording the target mm. mem_cgroup_clear_mc() is
updated accordingly. This also simplifies mem_cgroup_move_task().
* mem_cgroup_move_task() is now called from ->post_attach instead of
->attach.

commit 376bf125ac781d32e202760ed7deb1ae4ed35d31 upstream.
This change is primarily an attempt to make it easier to realize the
optimizations the compiler performs in-case CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is not
enabled.
Performance wise, even when CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is compiled in, the
overhead is zero. This is because, as long as no process have enabled
kmem cgroups accounting, the assignment is replaced by asm-NOP
operations. This is possible because memcg_kmem_enabled() uses a
static_key_false() construct.
It also helps readability as it avoid accessing the p[] array like:
p[size - 1] which "expose" that the array is processed backwards inside
helper function build_detached_freelist().
Lastly this also makes the code more robust, in error case like passing
NULL pointers in the array. Which were previously handled before commit
033745189b1b ("slub: add missing kmem cgroup support to
kmem_cache_free_bulk").

commit d9dddbf556674bf125ecd925b24e43a5cf2a568a upstream.
Hanjun Guo has reported that a CMA stress test causes broken accounting of
CMA and free pages:
> Before the test, I got:
> -bash-4.3# cat /proc/meminfo | grep Cma
> CmaTotal: 204800 kB
> CmaFree: 195044 kB
>
>
> After running the test:
> -bash-4.3# cat /proc/meminfo | grep Cma
> CmaTotal: 204800 kB
> CmaFree: 6602584 kB
>
> So the freed CMA memory is more than total..
>
> Also the the MemFree is more than mem total:
>
> -bash-4.3# cat /proc/meminfo
> MemTotal: 16342016 kB
> MemFree: 22367268 kB
> MemAvailable: 22370528 kB
Laura Abbott has confirmed the issue and suspected the freepage accounting
rewrite around 3.18/4.0 by Joonsoo Kim. Joonsoo had a theory that this is
caused by unexpected merging between MIGRATE_ISOLATE and MIGRATE_CMA
pageblocks:
> CMA isolates MAX_ORDER aligned blocks, but, during the process,
> partialy isolated block exists. If MAX_ORDER is 11 and
> pageblock_order is 9, two pageblocks make up MAX_ORDER
> aligned block and I can think following scenario because pageblock

> II -> CI -> CC (Un-isolation)
>

This was supposed to be prevented by CMA operating on MAX_ORDER blocks,
but since it doesn't hold the zone->lock between pageblocks, a race
window does exist.
It's also likely that unexpected merging can occur between
MIGRATE_ISOLATE and non-CMA pageblocks. This should be prevented in
__free_one_page() since commit 3c605096d315 ("mm/page_alloc: restrict
max order of merging on isolated pageblock"). However, we only check
the migratetype of the pageblock where buddy merging has been initiated,
not the migratetype of the buddy pageblock (or group of pageblocks)
which can be MIGRATE_ISOLATE.
Joonsoo has suggested checking for buddy migratetype as part of
page_is_buddy(), but that would add extra checks in allocator hotpath
and bloat-o-meter has shown significant code bloat (the function is
inline).
This patch reduces the bloat at some expense of more complicated code.
The buddy-merging while-loop in __free_one_page() is initially bounded
to pageblock_border and without any migratetype checks. The checks are
placed outside, bumping the max_order if merging is allowed, and
returning to the while-loop with a statement which can't be possibly
considered harmful.
This fixes the accounting bug and also removes the arguably weird state
in the original commit 3c605096d315 where buddies could be left
unmerged.

commit b6e6edcfa40561e9c8abe5eecf1c96f8e5fd9c6f upstream.
Setting the original memory.limit_in_bytes hardlimit is subject to a
race condition when the desired value is below the current usage. The
code tries a few times to first reclaim and then see if the usage has
dropped to where we would like it to be, but there is no locking, and
the workload is free to continue making new charges up to the old limit.
Thus, attempting to shrink a workload relies on pure luck and hope that
the workload happens to cooperate.
To fix this in the cgroup2 memory.max knob, do it the other way round:
set the limit first, then try enforcement. And if reclaim is not able
to succeed, trigger OOM kills in the group. Keep going until the new
limit is met, we run out of OOM victims and there's only unreclaimable
memory left, or the task writing to memory.max is killed. This allows
users to shrink groups reliably, and the behavior is consistent with
what happens when new charges are attempted in excess of memory.max.

commit 588083bb37a3cea8533c392370a554417c8f29cb upstream.
When setting memory.high below usage, nothing happens until the next
charge comes along, and then it will only reclaim its own charge and not
the now potentially huge excess of the new memory.high. This can cause
groups to stay in excess of their memory.high indefinitely.
To fix that, when shrinking memory.high, kick off a reclaim cycle that
goes after the delta.

commit 21ea9fb69e7c4b1b1559c3e410943d3ff248ffcb upstream.
In balloon_page_dequeue, pages_lock should cover the loop
(ie, list_for_each_entry_safe). Otherwise, the cursor page could
be isolated by compaction and then list_del by isolation could
poison the page->lru.{prev,next} so the loop finally could
access wrong address like this. This patch fixes the bug.

commit 8479eba7781fa9ffb28268840de6facfc12c35a7 upstream.
Commit 4167e9b2cf10 ("mm: remove GFP_THISNODE") removed the GFP_THISNODE
flag combination due to confusing semantics. It noted that
alloc_misplaced_dst_page() was one such user after changes made by
commit e97ca8e5b864 ("mm: fix GFP_THISNODE callers and clarify").
Unfortunately when GFP_THISNODE was removed, users of
alloc_misplaced_dst_page() started waking kswapd and entering direct
reclaim because the wrong GFP flags are cleared. The consequence is
that workloads that used to fit into memory now get reclaimed which is
addressed by this patch.
The problem can be demonstrated with "mutilate" that exercises memcached
which is software dedicated to memory object caching. The configuration
uses 80% of memory and is run 3 times for varying numbers of clients.
The results on a 4-socket NUMA box are

The vanilla kernel is swapping like crazy with large amounts of direct
reclaim and kswapd activity. The figures are aggregate but it's known
that the bad activity is throughout the entire test.
Note that simple streaming anon/file memory consumers also see this
problem but it's not as obvious. In those cases, kswapd is awake when
it should not be.
As there are at least two reclaim-related bugs out there, it's worth
spelling out the user-visible impact. This patch only addresses bugs
related to excessive reclaim on NUMA hardware when the working set is
larger than a NUMA node. There is a bug related to high kswapd CPU
usage but the reports are against laptops and other UMA hardware and is
not addressed by this patch.

commit ad33bb04b2a6cee6c1f99fabb15cddbf93ff0433 upstream.
pmd_trans_unstable()/pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() were
introduced to locklessy (but atomically) detect when a pmd is a regular
(stable) pmd or when the pmd is unstable and can infinitely transition
from pmd_none() and pmd_trans_huge() from under us, while only holding
the mmap_sem for reading (for writing not).
While holding the mmap_sem only for reading, MADV_DONTNEED can run from
under us and so before we can assume the pmd to be a regular stable pmd
we need to compare it against pmd_none() and pmd_trans_huge() in an
atomic way, with pmd_trans_unstable(). The old pmd_trans_huge() left a
tiny window for a race.
Useful applications are unlikely to notice the difference as doing
MADV_DONTNEED concurrently with a page fault would lead to undefined
behavior.

commit 6a6ac72fd6ea32594b316513e1826c3f6db4cc93 upstream.
This showed up on ARC when running LMBench bw_mem tests as Overlapping
TLB Machine Check Exception triggered due to STLB entry (2M pages)
overlapping some NTLB entry (regular 8K page).
bw_mem 2m touches a large chunk of vaddr creating NTLB entries. In the
interim khugepaged kicks in, collapsing the contiguous ptes into a
single pmd. pmdp_collapse_flush()->flush_pmd_tlb_range() is called to
flush out NTLB entries for the ptes. This for ARC (by design) can only
shootdown STLB entries (for pmd). The stray NTLB entries cause the
overlap with the subsequent STLB entry for collapsed page. So make
pmdp_collapse_flush() call pte flush interface not pmd flush.
Note that originally all thp flush call sites in generic code called
flush_tlb_range() leaving it to architecture to implement the flush for
pte and/or pmd. Commit 12ebc1581ad11454 changed this by calling a new
opt-in API flush_pmd_tlb_range() which made the semantics more explicit
but failed to distinguish the pte vs pmd flush in generic code, which is
what this patch fixes.
Note that ARC can fixed w/o touching the generic pmdp_collapse_flush()
by defining a ARC version, but that defeats the purpose of generic
version, plus sementically this is the right thing to do.

exceptions with super pages

commit 6611d8d76132f86faa501de9451a89bf23fb2371 upstream.
A spare array holding mem cgroup threshold events is kept around to make
sure we can always safely deregister an event and have an array to store
the new set of events in.
In the scenario where we're going from 1 to 0 registered events, the
pointer to the primary array containing 1 event is copied to the spare
slot, and then the spare slot is freed because no events are left.
However, it is freed before calling synchronize_rcu(), which means
readers may still be accessing threshold->primary after it is freed.
Fixed by only freeing after synchronize_rcu().

commit 48f7df329474b49d83d0dffec1b6186647f11976 upstream.
Grazvydas Ignotas has reported a regression in remap_file_pages()
emulation.
Testcase:
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <assert.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#define SIZE (4096 * 3)
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
unsigned long *p;
long i;
p = mmap(NULL, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
if (p == MAP_FAILED) {
perror("mmap");
return -1;
}
for (i = 0; i < SIZE / 4096; i++)
p[i * 4096 / sizeof(*p)] = i;
if (remap_file_pages(p, 4096, 0, 1, 0)) {
perror("remap_file_pages");
return -1;
}
if (remap_file_pages(p, 4096 * 2, 0, 1, 0)) {
perror("remap_file_pages");
return -1;
}
assert(p[0] == 1);
munmap(p, SIZE);
return 0;
}
The second remap_file_pages() fails with -EINVAL.
The reason is that remap_file_pages() emulation assumes that the target
vma covers whole area we want to over map. That assumption is broken by
first remap_file_pages() call: it split the area into two vma.
The solution is to check next adjacent vmas, if they map the same file
with the same flags.

commit 12352d3cae2cebe18805a91fab34b534d7444231 upstream.
Sequence vma_lock_anon_vma() - vma_unlock_anon_vma() isn't safe if
anon_vma appeared between lock and unlock. We have to check anon_vma
first or call anon_vma_prepare() to be sure that it's here. There are
only few users of these legacy helpers. Let's get rid of them.
This patch fixes anon_vma lock imbalance in validate_mm(). Write lock
isn't required here, read lock is enough.
And reorders expand_downwards/expand_upwards: security_mmap_addr() and
wrapping-around check don't have to be under anon vma lock.

commit 7162a1e87b3e380133dadc7909081bb70d0a7041 upstream.
Tetsuo Handa reported underflow of NR_MLOCK on munlock.
Testcase:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#define BASE ((void *)0x400000000000)
#define SIZE (1UL << 21)
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
void *addr;
system("grep Mlocked /proc/meminfo");
addr = mmap(BASE, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_LOCKED | MAP_FIXED,
-1, 0);
if (addr == MAP_FAILED)
printf("mmap() failed\n"), exit(1);
munmap(addr, SIZE);
system("grep Mlocked /proc/meminfo");
return 0;
}
It happens on munlock_vma_page() due to unfortunate choice of nr_pages
data type:
__mod_zone_page_state(zone, NR_MLOCK, -nr_pages);
For unsigned int nr_pages, implicitly casted to long in
__mod_zone_page_state(), it becomes something around UINT_MAX.
munlock_vma_page() usually called for THP as small pages go though
pagevec.
Let's make nr_pages signed int.
Similar fixes in 6cdb18ad98a4 ("mm/vmstat: fix overflow in
mod_zone_page_state()") used `long' type, but `int' here is OK for a
count of the number of sub-pages in a huge page.

The root cause resides in get_any_page() which retries to get a refcount
of the page to be soft-offlined. This function calls
put_hwpoison_page(), expecting that the target page is putback to LRU
list. But it can be also freed to buddy. So the second check need to
care about such case.

By checking the effective credentials instead of the real UID / permitted
capabilities, ensure that the calling process actually intended to use its
credentials.
To ensure that all ptrace checks use the correct caller credentials (e.g.
in case out-of-tree code or newly added code omits the PTRACE_MODE_*CREDS
flag), use two new flags and require one of them to be set.
The problem was that when a privileged task had temporarily dropped its
privileges, e.g. by calling setreuid(0, user_uid), with the intent to
perform following syscalls with the credentials of a user, it still passed
ptrace access checks that the user would not be able to pass.
While an attacker should not be able to convince the privileged task to
perform a ptrace() syscall, this is a problem because the ptrace access
check is reused for things in procfs.
In particular, the following somewhat interesting procfs entries only rely
on ptrace access checks:
/proc/$pid/stat - uses the check for determining whether pointers
should be visible, useful for bypassing ASLR
/proc/$pid/maps - also useful for bypassing ASLR
/proc/$pid/cwd - useful for gaining access to restricted
directories that contain files with lax permissions, e.g. in
this scenario:
lrwxrwxrwx root root /proc/13020/cwd -> /root/foobar
drwx------ root root /root
drwxr-xr-x root root /root/foobar
-rw-r--r-- root root /root/foobar/secret
Therefore, on a system where a root-owned mode 6755 binary changes its
effective credentials as described and then dumps a user-specified file,
this could be used by an attacker to reveal the memory layout of root's
processes or reveal the contents of files he is not allowed to access
(through /proc/$pid/cwd).

commit 564e81a57f9788b1475127012e0fd44e9049e342 upstream.
Jan Stancek has reported that system occasionally hanging after "oom01"
testcase from LTP triggers OOM. Guessing from a result that there is a
kworker thread doing memory allocation and the values between "Node 0
Normal free:" and "Node 0 Normal:" differs when hanging, vmstat is not
up-to-date for some reason.
According to commit 373ccbe59270 ("mm, vmstat: allow WQ concurrency to
discover memory reclaim doesn't make any progress"), it meant to force
the kworker thread to take a short sleep, but it by error used
schedule_timeout(1). We missed that schedule_timeout() in state
TASK_RUNNING doesn't do anything.
Fix it by using schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(1) which forces the
kworker thread to take a short sleep in order to make sure that vmstat
is up-to-date.

commit c102f07ca0b04f2cb49cfc161c83f6239d17f491 upstream.
record_obj() in migrate_zspage() does not preserve handle's
HANDLE_PIN_BIT, set by find_aloced_obj()->trypin_tag(), and implicitly
(accidentally) un-pins the handle, while migrate_zspage() still performs
an explicit unpin_tag() on the that handle. This additional explicit
unpin_tag() introduces a race condition with zs_free(), which can pin
that handle by this time, so the handle becomes un-pinned.
Schematically, it goes like this:
CPU0 CPU1
migrate_zspage
find_alloced_obj
trypin_tag
set HANDLE_PIN_BIT zs_free()
pin_tag()
obj_malloc() -- new object, no tag
record_obj() -- remove HANDLE_PIN_BIT set HANDLE_PIN_BIT
unpin_tag() -- remove zs_free's HANDLE_PIN_BIT
The race condition may result in a NULL pointer dereference:

The reason is that start_shepherd_timer schedules the shepherd work item
which uses vmstat_wq (vmstat_shepherd) before setup_vmstat allocates
that workqueue so if the further initialization takes more than HZ we
might end up scheduling on a NULL vmstat_wq. This is really unlikely
but not impossible.

mod_zone_page_state() takes a "delta" integer argument. delta contains
the number of pages that should be added or subtracted from a struct
zone's vm_stat field.
If a zone is larger than 8TB this will cause overflows. E.g. for a
zone with a size slightly larger than 8TB the line
mod_zone_page_state(zone, NR_ALLOC_BATCH, zone->managed_pages);
in mm/page_alloc.c:free_area_init_core() will result in a negative
result for the NR_ALLOC_BATCH entry within the zone's vm_stat, since 8TB
contain 0x8xxxxxxx pages which will be sign extended to a negative
value.
Fix this by changing the delta argument to long type.
This could fix an early boot problem seen on s390, where we have a 9TB
system with only one node. ZONE_DMA contains 2GB and ZONE_NORMAL the
rest. The system is trying to allocate a GFP_DMA page but ZONE_DMA is
completely empty, so it tries to reclaim pages in an endless loop.
This was seen on a heavily patched 3.10 kernel. One possible
explaination seem to be the overflows caused by mod_zone_page_state().
Unfortunately I did not have the chance to verify that this patch
actually fixes the problem, since I don't have access to the system
right now. However the overflow problem does exist anyway.
Given the description that a system with slightly less than 8TB does
work, this seems to be a candidate for the observed problem.

test_pages_in_a_zone() does not account for the possibility of missing
sections in the given pfn range. pfn_valid_within always returns 1 when
CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE is not set, allowing invalid pfns from missing
sections to pass the test, leading to a kernel oops.
Wrap an additional pfn loop with PAGES_PER_SECTION granularity to check
for missing sections before proceeding into the zone-check code.
This also prevents a crash from offlining memory devices with missing
sections. Despite this, it may be a good idea to keep the related patch
'[PATCH 3/3] drivers: memory: prohibit offlining of memory blocks with
missing sections' because missing sections in a memory block may lead to
other problems not covered by the scope of this fix.

Memory cgroup reclaim can be interrupted with mem_cgroup_iter_break()
once enough pages have been reclaimed, in which case, in contrast to a
full round-trip over a cgroup sub-tree, the current position stored in
mem_cgroup_reclaim_iter of the target cgroup does not get invalidated
and so is left holding the reference to the last scanned cgroup. If the
target cgroup does not get scanned again (we might have just reclaimed
the last page or all processes might exit and free their memory
voluntary), we will leak it, because there is nobody to put the
reference held by the iterator.
The problem is easy to reproduce by running the following command
sequence in a loop:
mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test
echo 100M > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test/memory.limit_in_bytes
echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test/cgroup.procs
memhog 150M
echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/cgroup.procs
rmdir test
The cgroups generated by it will never get freed.
This patch fixes this issue by making mem_cgroup_iter avoid taking
reference to the current position. In order not to hit use-after-free
bug while running reclaim in parallel with cgroup deletion, we make use
of ->css_released cgroup callback to clear references to the dying
cgroup in all reclaim iterators that might refer to it. This callback
is called right before scheduling rcu work which will free css, so if we
access iter->position from rcu read section, we might be sure it won't
go away under us.
