2a4db7eb93 memcg: free memcg_caches slot on css offline
We need to look up a kmem_cache in ->memcg_params.memcg_caches arrays only
on allocations, so there is no need to have the array entries set until
css free - we can clear them on css offline.  This will allow us to reuse
array entries more efficiently and avoid costly array relocations.

f1008365bb slab: use css id for naming per memcg caches
Currently, we use mem_cgroup->kmemcg_id to guarantee kmem_cache->name
uniqueness.  This is correct, because kmemcg_id is only released on css
free after destroying all per memcg caches.

However, I am going to change that and release kmemcg_id on css offline,
because it is not wise to keep it for so long, wasting valuable entries of
memcg_cache_params->memcg_caches arrays.  Therefore, to preserve cache
name uniqueness, let us switch to css->id.

01e586598b cgroup: release css->id after css_free
Currently, we release css->id in css_release_work_fn, right before calling
css_free callback, so that when css_free is called, the id may have
already been reused for a new cgroup.

I am going to use css->id to create unique names for per memcg kmem
caches.  Since kmem caches are destroyed only on css_free, I need css->id
to be freed after css_free was called to avoid name clashes.  This patch
therefore moves css->id removal to css_free_work_fn.  To prevent
css_from_id from returning a pointer to a stale css, it makes
css_release_work_fn replace the css ptr at css_idr:css->id with NULL.

426589f571 slab: link memcg caches of the same kind into a list
Sometimes, we need to iterate over all memcg copies of a particular root
kmem cache.  Currently, we use memcg_cache_params->memcg_caches array for
that, because it contains all existing memcg caches.

However, it's a bad practice to keep all caches, including those that
belong to offline cgroups, in this array, because it will be growing
beyond any bounds then.  I'm going to wipe away dead caches from it to
save space.  To still be able to perform iterations over all memcg caches
of the same kind, let us link them into a list.

f7ce3190c4 slab: embed memcg_cache_params to kmem_cache
Currently, kmem_cache stores a pointer to struct memcg_cache_params
instead of embedding it.  The rationale is to save memory when kmem
accounting is disabled.  However, the memcg_cache_params has shrivelled
drastically since it was first introduced:

* Initially:

struct memcg_cache_params {
	bool is_root_cache;
	union {
		struct kmem_cache *memcg_caches[0];
		struct {
			struct mem_cgroup *memcg;
			struct list_head list;
			struct kmem_cache *root_cache;
			bool dead;
			atomic_t nr_pages;
			struct work_struct destroy;
		};
	};
};

* Now:

struct memcg_cache_params {
	bool is_root_cache;
	union {
		struct {
			struct rcu_head rcu_head;
			struct kmem_cache *memcg_caches[0];
		};
		struct {
			struct mem_cgroup *memcg;
			struct kmem_cache *root_cache;
		};
	};
};

So the memory saving does not seem to be a clear win anymore.

OTOH, keeping a pointer to memcg_cache_params struct instead of embedding
it results in touching one more cache line on kmem alloc/free hot paths.
Besides, it makes linking kmem caches in a list chained by a field of
struct memcg_cache_params really painful due to a level of indirection,
while I want to make them linked in the following patch.  That said, let
us embed it.

49e7e7ff8d fs: shrinker: always scan at least one object of each type
In super_cache_scan() we divide the number of objects of particular type
by the total number of objects in order to distribute pressure among As a
result, in some corner cases we can get nr_to_scan=0 even if there are
some objects to reclaim, e.g.  dentries=1, inodes=1, fs_objects=1,
nr_to_scan=1/3=0.

This is unacceptable for per memcg kmem accounting, because this means
that some objects may never get reclaimed after memcg death, preventing it
from being freed.

This patch therefore assures that super_cache_scan() will scan at least
one object of each type if any.

2acb60a046 fs: make shrinker memcg aware
Now, to make any list_lru-based shrinker memcg aware we should only
initialize its list_lru as memcg aware.  Let's do it for the general FS
shrinker (super_block::s_shrink).

There are other FS-specific shrinkers that use list_lru for storing
objects, such as XFS and GFS2 dquot cache shrinkers, but since they
reclaim objects that are shared among different cgroups, there is no point
making them memcg aware.  It's a big question whether we should account
them to memcg at all.

60d3fd32a7 list_lru: introduce per-memcg lists
There are several FS shrinkers, including super_block::s_shrink, that
keep reclaimable objects in the list_lru structure.  Hence to turn them
to memcg-aware shrinkers, it is enough to make list_lru per-memcg.

This patch does the trick.  It adds an array of lru lists to the
list_lru_node structure (per-node part of the list_lru), one for each
kmem-active memcg, and dispatches every item addition or removal to the
list corresponding to the memcg which the item is accounted to.  So now
the list_lru structure is not just per node, but per node and per memcg.

Not all list_lrus need this feature, so this patch also adds a new
method, list_lru_init_memcg, which initializes a list_lru as memcg
aware.  Otherwise (i.e.  if initialized with old list_lru_init), the
list_lru won't have per memcg lists.

Just like per memcg caches arrays, the arrays of per-memcg lists are
indexed by memcg_cache_id, so we must grow them whenever
memcg_nr_cache_ids is increased.  So we introduce a callback,
memcg_update_all_list_lrus, invoked by memcg_alloc_cache_id if the id
space is full.

The locking is implemented in a manner similar to lruvecs, i.e.  we have
one lock per node that protects all lists (both global and per cgroup) on
the node.

c0a5b56093 list_lru: organize all list_lrus to list
To make list_lru memcg aware, we need all list_lrus to be kept on a list
protected by a mutex, so that we could sleep while walking over the
list.

Therefore after this change list_lru_destroy may sleep.  Fortunately,
there is only one user that calls it from an atomic context - it's
put_super - and we can easily fix it by calling list_lru_destroy before
put_super in destroy_locked_super - anyway we don't longer need lrus by
that time.

Another point that should be noted is that list_lru_destroy is allowed
to be called on an uninitialized zeroed-out object, in which case it is
a no-op.  Before this patch this was guaranteed by kfree, but now we
need an explicit check there.

ff0b67ef5b list_lru: get rid of ->active_nodes
The active_nodes mask allows us to skip empty nodes when walking over
list_lru items from all nodes in list_lru_count/walk.  However, these
functions are never called from hot paths, so it doesn't seem we need
such kind of optimization there.  OTOH, removing the mask will make it
easier to make list_lru per-memcg.

05257a1a3d memcg: add rwsem to synchronize against memcg_caches arrays relocation
We need a stable value of memcg_nr_cache_ids in kmem_cache_create()
(memcg_alloc_cache_params() wants it for root caches), where we only
hold the slab_mutex and no memcg-related locks.  As a result, we have to
update memcg_nr_cache_ids under the slab_mutex, which we can only take
on the slab's side (see memcg_update_array_size).  This looks awkward
and will become even worse when per-memcg list_lru is introduced, which
also wants stable access to memcg_nr_cache_ids.

To get rid of this dependency between the memcg_nr_cache_ids and the
slab_mutex, this patch introduces a special rwsem.  The rwsem is held
for writing during memcg_caches arrays relocation and memcg_nr_cache_ids
updates.  Therefore one can take it for reading to get a stable access
to memcg_caches arrays and/or memcg_nr_cache_ids.

Currently the semaphore is taken for reading only from
kmem_cache_create, right before taking the slab_mutex, so right now
there's no much point in using rwsem instead of mutex.  However, once
list_lru is made per-memcg it will allow list_lru initializations to
proceed concurrently.

dbcf73e26c memcg: rename some cache id related variables
memcg_limited_groups_array_size, which defines the size of memcg_caches
arrays, sounds rather cumbersome.  Also it doesn't point anyhow that
it's related to kmem/caches stuff.  So let's rename it to
memcg_nr_cache_ids.  It's concise and points us directly to
memcg_cache_id.

Also, rename kmem_limited_groups to memcg_cache_ida.

cb731d6c62 vmscan: per memory cgroup slab shrinkers
This patch adds SHRINKER_MEMCG_AWARE flag.  If a shrinker has this flag
set, it will be called per memory cgroup.  The memory cgroup to scan
objects from is passed in shrink_control->memcg.  If the memory cgroup

global list.  Unaware shrinkers are only called on global pressure with
memcg=NULL.

4101b62435 fs: consolidate {nr,free}_cached_objects args in shrink_control
We are going to make FS shrinkers memcg-aware.  To achieve that, we will
have to pass the memcg to scan to the nr_cached_objects and
free_cached_objects VFS methods, which currently take only the NUMA node
to scan.  Since the shrink_control structure already holds the node, and
the memcg to scan will be added to it when we introduce memcg-aware
vmscan, let us consolidate the methods' arguments in this structure to
keep things clean.

503c358cf1 list_lru: introduce list_lru_shrink_{count,walk}
Kmem accounting of memcg is unusable now, because it lacks slab shrinker
support.  That means when we hit the limit we will get ENOMEM w/o any
chance to recover.  What we should do then is to call shrink_slab, which
would reclaim old inode/dentry caches from this cgroup.  This is what
this patch set is intended to do.

Basically, it does two things.  First, it introduces the notion of
per-memcg slab shrinker.  A shrinker that wants to reclaim objects per
cgroup should mark itself as SHRINKER_MEMCG_AWARE.  Then it will be
passed the memory cgroup to scan from in shrink_control->memcg.  For
such shrinkers shrink_slab iterates over the whole cgroup subtree under
the target cgroup and calls the shrinker for each kmem-active memory
cgroup.

Secondly, this patch set makes the list_lru structure per-memcg.  It's
done transparently to list_lru users - everything they have to do is to
tell list_lru_init that they want memcg-aware list_lru.  Then the
list_lru will automatically distribute objects among per-memcg lists
basing on which cgroup the object is accounted to.  This way to make FS
shrinkers (icache, dcache) memcg-aware we only need to make them use
memcg-aware list_lru, and this is what this patch set does.

As before, this patch set only enables per-memcg kmem reclaim when the
pressure goes from memory.limit, not from memory.kmem.limit.  Handling
memory.kmem.limit is going to be tricky due to GFP_NOFS allocations, and
it is still unclear whether we will have this knob in the unified
hierarchy.

This patch (of 9):

NUMA aware slab shrinkers use the list_lru structure to distribute
objects coming from different NUMA nodes to different lists.  Whenever
such a shrinker needs to count or scan objects from a particular node,
it issues commands like this:

        count = list_lru_count_node(lru, sc->nid);
        freed = list_lru_walk_node(lru, sc->nid, isolate_func,
                                   isolate_arg, &sc->nr_to_scan);

where sc is an instance of the shrink_control structure passed to it
from vmscan.

To simplify this, let's add special list_lru functions to be used by
shrinkers, list_lru_shrink_count() and list_lru_shrink_walk(), which
consolidate the nid and nr_to_scan arguments in the shrink_control
structure.

This will also allow us to avoid patching shrinkers that use list_lru
when we make shrink_slab() per-memcg - all we will have to do is extend
the shrink_control structure to include the target memcg and make
list_lru_shrink_{count,walk} handle this appropriately.

c819f37e7e x86: mm: restore original pte_special check
Commit b38af4721f ("x86,mm: fix pte_special versus pte_numa") adjusted
the pte_special check to take into account that a special pte had
SPECIAL and neither PRESENT nor PROTNONE.  Now that NUMA hinting PTEs
are no longer modifying _PAGE_PRESENT it should be safe to restore the
original pte_special behaviour.

Faults on the huge zero page are pointless and there is a BUG_ON to catch
them during fault time.  This patch reintroduces a check that avoids

21d9ee3eda mm: remove remaining references to NUMA hinting bits and helpers
This patch removes the NUMA PTE bits and associated helpers.  As a
side-effect it increases the maximum possible swap space on x86-64.

One potential source of problems is races between the marking of PTEs
PROT_NONE, NUMA hinting faults and migration.  It must be guaranteed that
a PTE being protected is not faulted in parallel, seen as a pte_none and
corrupting memory.  The base case is safe but transhuge has problems in
the past due to an different migration mechanism and a dependance on page
lock to serialise migrations and warrants a closer look.

task_work hinting update			parallel fault
------------------------			--------------
change_pmd_range
  change_huge_pmd
    __pmd_trans_huge_lock
      pmdp_get_and_clear
						__handle_mm_fault
						pmd_none
						  do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page
						  read? pmd_lock blocks until hinting complete, fail !pmd_none test
						  write? __do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page acquires pmd_lock, checks pmd_none
      pmd_modify
      set_pmd_at

task_work hinting update			parallel migration
------------------------			------------------
change_pmd_range
  change_huge_pmd
    __pmd_trans_huge_lock
      pmdp_get_and_clear
						__handle_mm_fault
						  do_huge_pmd_numa_page
						    migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page
						    pmd_lock waits for updates to complete, recheck pmd_same
      pmd_modify
      set_pmd_at

Both of those are safe and the case where a transhuge page is inserted
during a protection update is unchanged.  The case where two processes try
migrating at the same time is unchanged by this series so should still be
ok.  I could not find a case where we are accidentally depending on the
PTE not being cleared and flushed.  If one is missed, it'll manifest as
corruption problems that start triggering shortly after this series is
merged and only happen when NUMA balancing is enabled.

5d83306213 mm: numa: do not dereference pmd outside of the lock during NUMA hinting fault
Automatic NUMA balancing depends on being able to protect PTEs to trap a
fault and gather reference locality information.  Very broadly speaking
it would mark PTEs as not present and use another bit to distinguish
between NUMA hinting faults and other types of faults.  It was
universally loved by everybody and caused no problems whatsoever.  That
last sentence might be a lie.

This series is very heavily based on patches from Linus and Aneesh to
replace the existing PTE/PMD NUMA helper functions with normal change
protections.  I did alter and add parts of it but I consider them
relatively minor contributions.  At their suggestion, acked-bys are in
there but I've no problem converting them to Signed-off-by if requested.

AFAIK, this has received no testing on ppc64 and I'm depending on Aneesh
for that.  I tested trinity under kvm-tool and passed and ran a few
other basic tests.  At the time of writing, only the short-lived tests
have completed but testing of V2 indicated that long-term testing had no
surprises.  In most cases I'm leaving out detail as it's not that
interesting.

specjbb single JVM: There was negligible performance difference in the
	benchmark itself for short runs. However, system activity is
	higher and interrupts are much higher over time -- possibly TLB
	flushes. Migrations are also higher. Overall, this is more overhead
	but considering the problems faced with the old approach I think
	we just have to suck it up and find another way of reducing the
	overhead.

specjbb multi JVM: Negligible performance difference to the actual benchmark
	but like the single JVM case, the system overhead is noticeably
	higher.  Again, interrupts are a major factor.

autonumabench: This was all over the place and about all that can be
	reasonably concluded is that it's different but not necessarily
	better or worse.

System CPU usage of NUMA01 is worse but it's an adverse workload on this
machine so I'm reluctant to conclude that it's a problem that matters.  On
the other workloads that are sensible on this machine, system CPU usage is
great.  Overall time to complete the benchmark is comparable

NUMA pages migrated            5467056    61676398

The NUMA pages migrated look terrible but when I looked at a graph of the
activity over time I see that the massive spike in migration activity was
during NUMA01.  This correlates with high system CPU usage and could be
simply down to bad luck but any modifications that affect that workload
would be related to scan rates and migrations, not the protection
mechanism.  For all other workloads, migration activity was comparable.

Overall, headline performance figures are comparable but the overhead is
higher, mostly in interrupts.  To some extent, higher overhead from this
approach was anticipated but not to this degree.  It's going to be
necessary to reduce this again with a separate series in the future.  It's
still worth going ahead with this series though as it's likely to avoid
constant headaches with Xen and is probably easier to maintain.

This patch (of 10):

A transhuge NUMA hinting fault may find the page is migrating and should
wait until migration completes.  The check is race-prone because the pmd
is deferenced outside of the page lock and while the race is tiny, it'll
be larger if the PMD is cleared while marking PMDs for hinting fault.
This patch closes the race.

41cbc01f6e The updates included in this pull request for ftrace are:
o Several clean ups to the code
 
    One such clean up was to convert to 64 bit time keeping, in the
    ring buffer benchmark code.
 
  o Adding of __print_array() helper macro for TRACE_EVENT()
 
  o Updating the sample/trace_events/ to add samples of different ways to
    make trace events. Lots of features have been added since the sample
    code was made, and these features are mostly unknown. Developers
    have been making their own hacks to do things that are already available.
 
  o Performance improvements. Most notably, I found a performance bug where
    a waiter that is waiting for a full page from the ring buffer will
    see that a full page is not available, and go to sleep. The sched
    event caused by it going to sleep would cause it to wake up again.
    It would see that there was still not a full page, and go back to sleep
    again, and that would wake it up again, until finally it would see a
    full page. This change has been marked for stable.
 
    Other improvements include removing global locks from fast paths.

8138a67a55 mm/nommu.c: fix arithmetic overflow in __vm_enough_memory()
I noticed that "allowed" can easily overflow by falling below 0, because
(total_vm / 32) can be larger than "allowed".  The problem occurs in
OVERCOMMIT_NONE mode.

In this case, a huge allocation can success and overcommit the system
(despite OVERCOMMIT_NONE mode).  All subsequent allocations will fall
(system-wide), so system become unusable.

The problem was masked out by commit c9b1d0981f
("mm: limit growth of 3% hardcoded other user reserve"),
but it's easy to reproduce it on older kernels:
1) set overcommit_memory sysctl to 2
2) mmap() large file multiple times (with VM_SHARED flag)
3) try to malloc() large amount of memory

It also can be reproduced on newer kernels, but miss-configured
sysctl_user_reserve_kbytes is required.

Fix this issue by switching to signed arithmetic here.

57c2e36b6f vmstat: Reduce time interval to stat update on idle cpu
It was noted that the vm stat shepherd runs every 2 seconds and that the
vmstat update is then scheduled 2 seconds in the future.

This yields an interval of double the time interval which is not desired.

Change the shepherd so that it does not delay the vmstat update on the
other cpu.  We stil have to use schedule_delayed_work since we are using a
delayed_work_struct but we can set the delay to 0.

94f759d62b mm/page_owner.c: remove unnecessary stack_trace field
Page owner uses the page_ext structure to keep meta-information for every
page in the system.  The structure also contains a field of type 'struct
stack_trace', page owner uses this field during invocation of the function
save_stack_trace.  It is easy to notice that keeping a copy of this
structure for every page in the system is very inefficiently in terms of
memory.

The patch removes this unnecessary field of page_ext and forces page owner
to use a stack_trace structure allocated on the stack.

10359213d0 mm: incorporate read-only pages into transparent huge pages
This patch aims to improve THP collapse rates, by allowing THP collapse in
the presence of read-only ptes, like those left in place by do_swap_page
after a read fault.

Currently THP can collapse 4kB pages into a THP when there are up to
khugepaged_max_ptes_none pte_none ptes in a 2MB range.  This patch applies
the same limit for read-only ptes.

The patch was tested with a test program that allocates 800MB of memory,
writes to it, and then sleeps.  I force the system to swap out all but
190MB of the program by touching other memory.  Afterwards, the test
program does a mix of reads and writes to its memory, and the memory gets
swapped back in.

Without the patch, only the memory that did not get swapped out remained
in THPs, which corresponds to 24% of the memory of the program.  The
percentage did not increase over time.

With this patch, after 5 minutes of waiting khugepaged had collapsed 50%
of the program's memory back into THPs.

ba4877b9ca vmstat: do not use deferrable delayed work for vmstat_update
Vinayak Menon has reported that an excessive number of tasks was throttled
in the direct reclaim inside too_many_isolated() because NR_ISOLATED_FILE
was relatively high compared to NR_INACTIVE_FILE.  However it turned out
that the real number of NR_ISOLATED_FILE was 0 and the per-cpu
vm_stat_diff wasn't transferred into the global counter.

vmstat_work which is responsible for the sync is defined as deferrable
delayed work which means that the defined timeout doesn't wake up an idle
CPU.  A CPU might stay in an idle state for a long time and general effort
is to keep such a CPU in this state as long as possible which might lead
to all sorts of troubles for vmstat consumers as can be seen with the
excessive direct reclaim throttling.

This patch basically reverts 39bf6270f5 ("VM statistics: Make timer
deferrable") but it shouldn't cause any problems for idle CPUs because
only CPUs with an active per-cpu drift are woken up since 7cc36bbddd
("vmstat: on-demand vmstat workers v8") and CPUs which are idle for a
longer time shouldn't have per-cpu drift.

9c0415eb8c mm: more aggressive page stealing for UNMOVABLE allocations
When allocation falls back to stealing free pages of another migratetype,
it can decide to steal extra pages, or even the whole pageblock in order
to reduce fragmentation, which could happen if further allocation
fallbacks pick a different pageblock.  In try_to_steal_freepages(), one of
the situations where extra pages are stolen happens when we are trying to
allocate a MIGRATE_RECLAIMABLE page.

However, MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE allocations are not treated the same way,
although spreading such allocation over multiple fallback pageblocks is
arguably even worse than it is for RECLAIMABLE allocations.  To minimize
fragmentation, we should minimize the number of such fallbacks, and thus
steal as much as is possible from each fallback pageblock.

Note that in theory this might put more pressure on movable pageblocks and
cause movable allocations to steal back from unmovable pageblocks.
However, movable allocations are not as aggressive with stealing, and do
not cause permanent fragmentation, so the tradeoff is reasonable, and
evaluation seems to support the change.

This patch thus adds a check for MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE to the decision to
steal extra free pages.  When evaluating with stress-highalloc from
mmtests, this has reduced the number of MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE fallbacks to
roughly 1/6.  The number of these fallbacks stealing from MIGRATE_MOVABLE
block is reduced to 1/3.  There was no observation of growing number of
unmovable pageblocks over time, and also not of increased movable
allocation fallbacks.
