2025-12-07mm/mm_init: fix hash table order logging in alloc_large_system_hash()Isaac J. Manjarres1-1/+1
[ Upstream commit 0d6c356dd6547adac2b06b461528e3573f52d953 ] When emitting the order of the allocation for a hash table, alloc_large_system_hash() unconditionally subtracts PAGE_SHIFT from log base 2 of the allocation size. This is not correct if the allocation size is smaller than a page, and yields a negative value for the order as seen below: TCP established hash table entries: 32 (order: -4, 256 bytes, linear) TCP bind hash table entries: 32 (order: -2, 1024 bytes, linear) Use get_order() to compute the order when emitting the hash table information to correctly handle cases where the allocation size is smaller than a page: TCP established hash table entries: 32 (order: 0, 256 bytes, linear) TCP bind hash table entries: 32 (order: 0, 1024 bytes, linear) Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20251028191020.413002-1-isaacmanjarres@google.com Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2") Signed-off-by: Isaac J.

2025-10-19mm/page_alloc: only set ALLOC_HIGHATOMIC for __GPF_HIGH allocationsThadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo1-1/+1
commit 6a204d4b14c99232e05d35305c27ebce1c009840 upstream. Commit 524c48072e56 ("mm/page_alloc: rename ALLOC_HIGH to ALLOC_MIN_RESERVE") is the start of a series that explains how __GFP_HIGH, which implies ALLOC_MIN_RESERVE, is going to be used instead of __GFP_ATOMIC for high atomic reserves. Commit eb2e2b425c69 ("mm/page_alloc: explicitly record high-order atomic allocations in alloc_flags") introduced ALLOC_HIGHATOMIC for such allocations of order higher than 0. It still used __GFP_ATOMIC, though. Then, commit 1ebbb21811b7 ("mm/page_alloc: explicitly define how __GFP_HIGH non-blocking allocations accesses reserves") just turned that check for !__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM, ignoring that high atomic reserves were expected to test for __GFP_HIGH. This leads to high atomic reserves being added for high-order GFP_NOWAIT allocations and others that clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM, which is unexpected. Later, those reserves lead to 0-order allocations going to the slow path and starting reclaim.

2025-08-28mm/page_alloc: detect allocation forbidden by cpuset and bail out earlyFeng Tang1-0/+13
[ Upstream commit 8ca1b5a49885f0c0c486544da46a9e0ac790831d ] There was a report that starting an Ubuntu in docker while using cpuset to bind it to movable nodes (a node only has movable zone, like a node for hotplug or a Persistent Memory node in normal usage) will fail due to memory allocation failure, and then OOM is involved and many other innocent processes got killed. It can be reproduced with command: $ docker run -it --rm --cpuset-mems 4 ubuntu:latest bash -c "grep Mems_allowed /proc/self/status" (where node 4 is a movable node) runc:[2:INIT] invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x500cc2(GFP_HIGHUSER|__GFP_ACCOUNT), order=0, oom_score_adj=0 CPU: 8 PID: 8291 Comm: runc:[2:INIT] Tainted: G W I E 5.8.2-0.g71b519a-default #1 openSUSE Tumbleweed (unreleased) Hardware name: Dell Inc.

The OOM killer cannot help to resolve the situation as there is no usable memory for the request in the cpuset scope. The only reasonable measure to take is to fail the allocation right away and have the caller to deal with it. So add a check for cases like this in the slowpath of allocation, and bail out early returning NULL for the allocation. As page allocation is one of the hottest path in kernel, this check will hurt all users with sane cpuset configuration, add a static branch check and detect the abnormal config in cpuset memory binding setup so that the extra check cost in page allocation is not paid by everyone.

2025-06-04mm/page_alloc.c: avoid infinite retries caused by cpuset raceTianyang Zhang1-0/+8
commit e05741fb10c38d70bbd7ec12b23c197b6355d519 upstream. __alloc_pages_slowpath has no change detection for ac->nodemask in the part of retry path, while cpuset can modify it in parallel. For some processes that set mempolicy as MPOL_BIND, this results ac->nodemask changes, and then the should_reclaim_retry will judge based on the latest nodemask and jump to retry, while the get_page_from_freelist only traverses the zonelist from ac->preferred_zoneref, which selected by a expired nodemask and may cause infinite retries in some cases cpu 64: __alloc_pages_slowpath { /* ..... */ retry: /* ac->nodemask = 0x1, ac->preferred->zone->nid = 1 */ if (alloc_flags & ALLOC_KSWAPD) wake_all_kswapds(order, gfp_mask, ac); /* cpu 1: cpuset_write_resmask update_nodemask update_nodemasks_hier update_tasks_nodemask mpol_rebind_task mpol_rebind_policy mpol_rebind_nodemask // mempolicy->nodes has been modified, // which ac->nodemask point to */ /* ac->nodemask = 0x3, ac->preferred->zone->nid = 1 */ if (should_reclaim_retry(gfp_mask, order, ac, alloc_flags, did_some_progress > 0, &no_progress_loops)) goto retry; } Simultaneously starting multiple cpuset01 from LTP can quickly reproduce this issue on a multi node server when the maximum memory pressure is reached and the swap is enabled Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250416082405.20988-1-zhangtianyang@loongson.cn Fixes: c33d6c06f60f ("mm, page_alloc: avoid looking up the first zone in a zonelist twice") Signed-off-by: Tianyang Zhang <zhangtianyang@loongson.cn> Reviewed-by: Suren Baghdasaryan <surenb@google.com> Reviewed-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Brendan Jackman <jackmanb@google.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Zi Yan <ziy@nvidia.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

2024-12-14mm: fix NULL pointer dereference in alloc_pages_bulk_noprofJinjiang Tu1-1/+2
commit 8ce41b0f9d77cca074df25afd39b86e2ee3aa68e upstream. We triggered a NULL pointer dereference for ac.preferred_zoneref->zone in alloc_pages_bulk_noprof() when the task is migrated between cpusets. When cpuset is enabled, in prepare_alloc_pages(), ac->nodemask may be &current->mems_allowed. when first_zones_zonelist() is called to find preferred_zoneref, the ac->nodemask may be modified concurrently if the task is migrated between different cpusets. Assuming we have 2 NUMA Node, when traversing Node1 in ac->zonelist, the nodemask is 2, and when traversing Node2 in ac->zonelist, the nodemask is 1. As a result, the ac->preferred_zoneref points to NULL zone. In alloc_pages_bulk_noprof(), for_each_zone_zonelist_nodemask() finds a allowable zone and calls zonelist_node_idx(ac.preferred_zoneref), leading to NULL pointer dereference. __alloc_pages_noprof() fixes this issue by checking NULL pointer in commit ea57485af8f4 ("mm, page_alloc: fix check for NULL preferred_zone") and commit df76cee6bbeb ("mm, page_alloc: remove redundant checks from alloc fastpath"). To fix it, check NULL pointer for preferred_zoneref->zone.

2024-11-08mm/page_alloc: let GFP_ATOMIC order-0 allocs access highatomic reservesMatt Fleming1-5/+5
[ Upstream commit 281dd25c1a018261a04d1b8bf41a0674000bfe38 ] Under memory pressure it's possible for GFP_ATOMIC order-0 allocations to fail even though free pages are available in the highatomic reserves. GFP_ATOMIC allocations cannot trigger unreserve_highatomic_pageblock() since it's only run from reclaim. Given that such allocations will pass the watermarks in __zone_watermark_unusable_free(), it makes sense to fallback to highatomic reserves the same way that ALLOC_OOM can. This fixes order-0 page allocation failures observed on Cloudflare's fleet when handling network packets: kswapd1: page allocation failure: order:0, mode:0x820(GFP_ATOMIC), nodemask=(null),cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0-7 CPU: 10 PID: 696 Comm: kswapd1 Kdump: loaded Tainted: G O 6.6.43-CUSTOM #1 Hardware name: MACHINE Call Trace: <IRQ> dump_stack_lvl+0x3c/0x50 warn_alloc+0x13a/0x1c0 __alloc_pages_slowpath.constprop.0+0xc9d/0xd10 __alloc_pages+0x327/0x340 __napi_alloc_skb+0x16d/0x1f0 bnxt_rx_page_skb+0x96/0x1b0 [bnxt_en] bnxt_rx_pkt+0x201/0x15e0 [bnxt_en] __bnxt_poll_work+0x156/0x2b0 [bnxt_en] bnxt_poll+0xd9/0x1c0 [bnxt_en] __napi_poll+0x2b/0x1b0 bpf_trampoline_6442524138+0x7d/0x1000 __napi_poll+0x5/0x1b0 net_rx_action+0x342/0x740 handle_softirqs+0xcf/0x2b0 irq_exit_rcu+0x6c/0x90 sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x72/0x90 </IRQ> [mfleming@cloudflare.com: update comment] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20241015125158.3597702-1-matt@readmodwrite.com Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20241011120737.3300370-1-matt@readmodwrite.com Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAGis_TWzSu=P7QJmjD58WWiu3zjMTVKSzdOwWE8ORaGytzWJwQ@mail.gmail.com/ Fixes: 1d91df85f399 ("mm/page_alloc: handle a missing case for memalloc_nocma_{save/restore} APIs") Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming <mfleming@cloudflare.com> Suggested-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Reviewed-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@kernel.org> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>

accesses reserves [ Upstream commit 1ebbb21811b76c3b932959787f37985af36f62fa ] GFP_ATOMIC allocations get flagged ALLOC_HARDER which is a vague description. In preparation for the removal of GFP_ATOMIC redefine __GFP_ATOMIC to simply mean non-blocking and renaming ALLOC_HARDER to ALLOC_NON_BLOCK accordingly. __GFP_HIGH is required for access to reserves but non-blocking is granted more access. For example, GFP_NOWAIT is non-blocking but has no special access to reserves. A __GFP_NOFAIL blocking allocation is granted access similar to __GFP_HIGH if the only alternative is an OOM kill.

[ Upstream commit c988dcbecf3fd5430921eaa3fe9054754f76d185 ] RT tasks are allowed to dip below the min reserve but ALLOC_HARDER is typically combined with ALLOC_MIN_RESERVE so RT tasks are a little unusual. While there is some justification for allowing RT tasks access to memory reserves, there is a strong chance that a RT task that is also under memory pressure is at risk of missing deadlines anyway. Relax how much reserves an RT task can access by treating it the same as __GFP_HIGH allocations. Note that in a future kernel release that the RT special casing will be removed. Hard realtime tasks should be locking down resources in advance and ensuring enough memory is available. Even a soft-realtime task like audio or video live decoding which cannot jitter should be allocating both memory and any disk space required up-front before the recording starts instead of relying on reserves. At best, reserve access will only delay the problem by a very short interval.

2024-11-08mm/page_alloc: rename ALLOC_HIGH to ALLOC_MIN_RESERVEMel Gorman1-4/+4
[ Upstream commit 524c48072e5673f4511f1ad81493e2485863fd65 ] Patch series "Discard __GFP_ATOMIC", v3. Neil's patch has been residing in mm-unstable as commit 2fafb4fe8f7a ("mm: discard __GFP_ATOMIC") for a long time and recently brought up again. Most recently, I was worried that __GFP_HIGH allocations could use high-order atomic reserves which is unintentional but there was no response so lets revisit -- this series reworks how min reserves are used, protects highorder reserves and then finishes with Neil's patch with very minor modifications so it fits on top. There was a review discussion on renaming __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM to __GFP_ALLOW_BLOCKING but I didn't think it was that big an issue and is orthogonal to the removal of __GFP_ATOMIC. There were some concerns about how the gfp flags affect the min reserves but it never reached a solid conclusion so I made my own attempt. The series tries to iron out some of the details on how reserves are used. ALLOC_HIGH becomes ALLOC_MIN_RESERVE and ALLOC_HARDER becomes ALLOC_NON_BLOCK and documents how the reserves are affected. For example, ALLOC_NON_BLOCK (no direct reclaim) on its own allows 25% of the min reserve. ALLOC_MIN_RESERVE (__GFP_HIGH) allows 50% and both combined allows deeper access again. ALLOC_OOM allows access to 75%. High-order atomic allocations are explicitly handled with the caveat that no __GFP_ATOMIC flag means that any high-order allocation that specifies GFP_HIGH and cannot enter direct reclaim will be treated as if it was GFP_ATOMIC. This patch (of 6): __GFP_HIGH aliases to ALLOC_HIGH but the name does not really hint what it means. As ALLOC_HIGH is internal to the allocator, rename it to ALLOC_MIN_RESERVE to document that the min reserves can be depleted.

2024-11-08mm/page_alloc: fix tracepoint mm_page_alloc_zone_locked()Wonhyuk Yang1-8/+5
[ Upstream commit 10e0f7530205799e7e971aba699a7cb3a47456de ] Currently, trace point mm_page_alloc_zone_locked() doesn't show correct information. First, when alloc_flag has ALLOC_HARDER/ALLOC_CMA, page can be allocated from MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC/MIGRATE_CMA. Nevertheless, tracepoint use requested migration type not MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC and MIGRATE_CMA. Second, after commit 44042b4498728 ("mm/page_alloc: allow high-order pages to be stored on the per-cpu lists") percpu-list can store high order pages. But trace point determine whether it is a refiil of percpu-list by comparing requested order and 0. To handle these problems, make mm_page_alloc_zone_locked() only be called by __rmqueue_smallest with correct migration type. With a new argument called percpu_refill, it can show roughly whether it is a refill of percpu-list.

2024-04-10mm, vmscan: prevent infinite loop for costly GFP_NOIO | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL ↵Vlastimil Babka1-4/+6
allocations commit 803de9000f334b771afacb6ff3e78622916668b0 upstream. Sven reports an infinite loop in __alloc_pages_slowpath() for costly order __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL allocations that are also GFP_NOIO. Such combination can happen in a suspend/resume context where a GFP_KERNEL allocation can have __GFP_IO masked out via gfp_allowed_mask. Quoting Sven: 1. try to do a "costly" allocation (order > PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER) with __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL set. 2. page alloc's __alloc_pages_slowpath tries to get a page from the freelist. This fails because there is nothing free of that costly order. 3. page alloc tries to reclaim by calling __alloc_pages_direct_reclaim, which bails out because a zone is ready to be compacted; it pretends to have made a single page of progress. 4. page alloc tries to compact, but this always bails out early because __GFP_IO is not set (it's not passed by the snd allocator, and even if it were, we are suspending so the __GFP_IO flag would be cleared anyway). 5. page alloc believes reclaim progress was made (because of the pretense in item 3) and so it checks whether it should retry compaction. The compaction retry logic thinks it should try again, because: a) reclaim is needed because of the early bail-out in item 4 b) a zonelist is suitable for compaction 6. goto 2. indefinite stall. (end quote) The immediate root cause is confusing the COMPACT_SKIPPED returned from __alloc_pages_direct_compact() (step 4) due to lack of __GFP_IO to be indicating a lack of order-0 pages, and in step 5 evaluating that in should_compact_retry() as a reason to retry, before incrementing and limiting the number of retries. There are however other places that wrongly assume that compaction can happen while we lack __GFP_IO. To fix this, introduce gfp_compaction_allowed() to abstract the __GFP_IO evaluation and switch the open-coded test in try_to_compact_pages() to use it. Also use the new helper in: - compaction_ready(), which will make reclaim not bail out in step 3, so there's at least one attempt to actually reclaim, even if chances are small for a costly order - in_reclaim_compaction() which will make should_continue_reclaim() return false and we don't over-reclaim unnecessarily - in __alloc_pages_slowpath() to set a local variable can_compact, which is then used to avoid retrying reclaim/compaction for costly allocations (step 5) if we can't compact and also to skip the early compaction attempt that we do in some cases Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240221114357.13655-2-vbabka@suse.cz Fixes: 3250845d0526 ("Revert "mm, oom: prevent premature OOM killer invocation for high order request"") Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Reported-by: Sven van Ashbrook <svenva@chromium.org> Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAG-rBihs_xMKb3wrMO1%2B-%2Bp4fowP9oy1pa_OTkfxBzPUVOZF%2Bg@mail.gmail.com/ Tested-by: Karthikeyan Ramasubramanian <kramasub@chromium.org> Cc: Brian Geffon <bgeffon@google.com> Cc: Curtis Malainey <cujomalainey@chromium.org> Cc: Jaroslav Kysela <perex@perex.cz> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@kernel.org> Cc: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

To be specific: Consider target page is the third page in buddy page with order 2. | buddy-2 | Page | Target | Page | After break down to target page, we will only set first page to Guard because of bug. | Guard | Page | Target | Page | When we try put_page_back_buddy with target page, the buddy page of target if neither guard nor buddy, Then it's not able to construct original page with order 2 | Guard | Page | buddy-0 | Page | All pages except target page is not in free list and is not usable.

2023-04-26mm/page_alloc: fix potential deadlock on zonelist_update_seq seqlockTetsuo Handa1-0/+16
commit 1007843a91909a4995ee78a538f62d8665705b66 upstream. syzbot is reporting circular locking dependency which involves zonelist_update_seq seqlock [1], for this lock is checked by memory allocation requests which do not need to be retried. One deadlock scenario is kmalloc(GFP_ATOMIC) from an interrupt handler. CPU0 ---- __build_all_zonelists() { write_seqlock(&zonelist_update_seq); // makes zonelist_update_seq.seqcount odd // e.g. timer interrupt handler runs at this moment some_timer_func() { kmalloc(GFP_ATOMIC) { __alloc_pages_slowpath() { read_seqbegin(&zonelist_update_seq) { // spins forever because zonelist_update_seq.seqcount is odd } } } } // e.g. timer interrupt handler finishes write_sequnlock(&zonelist_update_seq); // makes zonelist_update_seq.seqcount even } This deadlock scenario can be easily eliminated by not calling read_seqbegin(&zonelist_update_seq) from !__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM allocation requests, for retry is applicable to only __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM allocation requests. But Michal Hocko does not know whether we should go with this approach. Another deadlock scenario which syzbot is reporting is a race between kmalloc(GFP_ATOMIC) from tty_insert_flip_string_and_push_buffer() with port->lock held and printk() from __build_all_zonelists() with zonelist_update_seq held. CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- pty_write() { tty_insert_flip_string_and_push_buffer() { __build_all_zonelists() { write_seqlock(&zonelist_update_seq); build_zonelists() { printk() { vprintk() { vprintk_default() { vprintk_emit() { console_unlock() { console_flush_all() { console_emit_next_record() { con->write() = serial8250_console_write() { spin_lock_irqsave(&port->lock, flags); tty_insert_flip_string() { tty_insert_flip_string_fixed_flag() { __tty_buffer_request_room() { tty_buffer_alloc() { kmalloc(GFP_ATOMIC | __GFP_NOWARN) { __alloc_pages_slowpath() { zonelist_iter_begin() { read_seqbegin(&zonelist_update_seq); // spins forever because zonelist_update_seq.seqcount is odd spin_lock_irqsave(&port->lock, flags); // spins forever because port->lock is held } } } } } } } } spin_unlock_irqrestore(&port->lock, flags); // message is printed to console spin_unlock_irqrestore(&port->lock, flags); } } } } } } } } } write_sequnlock(&zonelist_update_seq); } } } This deadlock scenario can be eliminated by preventing interrupt context from calling kmalloc(GFP_ATOMIC) and preventing printk() from calling console_flush_all() while zonelist_update_seq.seqcount is odd. Since Petr Mladek thinks that __build_all_zonelists() can become a candidate for deferring printk() [2], let's address this problem by disabling local interrupts in order to avoid kmalloc(GFP_ATOMIC) and disabling synchronous printk() in order to avoid console_flush_all() . As a side effect of minimizing duration of zonelist_update_seq.seqcount being odd by disabling synchronous printk(), latency at read_seqbegin(&zonelist_update_seq) for both !__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM and __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM allocation requests will be reduced. Although, from lockdep perspective, not calling read_seqbegin(&zonelist_update_seq) (i.e. do not record unnecessary locking dependency) from interrupt context is still preferable, even if we don't allow calling kmalloc(GFP_ATOMIC) inside write_seqlock(&zonelist_update_seq)/write_sequnlock(&zonelist_update_seq) section...

2023-04-26mm: page_alloc: skip regions with hugetlbfs pages when allocating 1G pagesMel Gorman1-0/+3
commit 4d73ba5fa710fe7d432e0b271e6fecd252aef66e upstream. A bug was reported by Yuanxi Liu where allocating 1G pages at runtime is taking an excessive amount of time for large amounts of memory. Further testing allocating huge pages that the cost is linear i.e. if allocating 1G pages in batches of 10 then the time to allocate nr_hugepages from 10->20->30->etc increases linearly even though 10 pages are allocated at each step. Profiles indicated that much of the time is spent checking the validity within already existing huge pages and then attempting a migration that fails after isolating the range, draining pages and a whole lot of other useless work. Commit eb14d4eefdc4 ("mm,page_alloc: drop unnecessary checks from pfn_range_valid_contig") removed two checks, one which ignored huge pages for contiguous allocations as huge pages can sometimes migrate. While there may be value on migrating a 2M page to satisfy a 1G allocation, it's potentially expensive if the 1G allocation fails and it's pointless to try moving a 1G page for a new 1G allocation or scan the tail pages for valid PFNs. Reintroduce the PageHuge check and assume any contiguous region with hugetlbfs pages is unsuitable for a new 1G allocation. The hpagealloc test allocates huge pages in batches and reports the average latency per page over time. This test happens just after boot when fragmentation is not an issue.

Sometimes, it would also show up as corruption in the free list pointer and cause crashes. After bisecting the issue, we found the issue started from commit e320d3012d25 ("mm/page_alloc.c: fix freeing non-compound pages"): if (put_page_testzero(page)) free_the_page(page, order); else if (!PageHead(page)) while (order-- > 0) free_the_page(page + (1 << order), order); So the problem is the check PageHead is racy because at this point we already dropped our reference to the page. So even if we came in with compound page, the page can already be freed and PageHead can return false and we will end up freeing all the tail pages causing double free.

2022-10-05mm: prevent page_frag_alloc() from corrupting the memoryMaurizio Lombardi1-0/+12
commit dac22531bbd4af2426c4e29e05594415ccfa365d upstream. A number of drivers call page_frag_alloc() with a fragment's size > PAGE_SIZE. In low memory conditions, __page_frag_cache_refill() may fail the order 3 cache allocation and fall back to order 0; In this case, the cache will be smaller than the fragment, causing memory corruptions. Prevent this from happening by checking if the newly allocated cache is large enough for the fragment; if not, the allocation will fail and page_frag_alloc() will return NULL.

2022-10-05mm/page_alloc: fix race condition between build_all_zonelists and page ↵Mel Gorman1-10/+43
allocation commit 3d36424b3b5850bd92f3e89b953a430d7cfc88ef upstream. Patrick Daly reported the following problem; NODE_DATA(nid)->node_zonelists[ZONELIST_FALLBACK] - before offline operation [0] - ZONE_MOVABLE [1] - ZONE_NORMAL [2] - NULL For a GFP_KERNEL allocation, alloc_pages_slowpath() will save the offset of ZONE_NORMAL in ac->preferred_zoneref. If a concurrent memory_offline operation removes the last page from ZONE_MOVABLE, build_all_zonelists() & build_zonerefs_node() will update node_zonelists as shown below. Only populated zones are added. NODE_DATA(nid)->node_zonelists[ZONELIST_FALLBACK] - after offline operation [0] - ZONE_NORMAL [1] - NULL [2] - NULL The race is simple -- page allocation could be in progress when a memory hot-remove operation triggers a zonelist rebuild that removes zones. The allocation request will still have a valid ac->preferred_zoneref that is now pointing to NULL and triggers an OOM kill. This problem probably always existed but may be slightly easier to trigger due to 6aa303defb74 ("mm, vmscan: only allocate and reclaim from zones with pages managed by the buddy allocator") which distinguishes between zones that are completely unpopulated versus zones that have valid pages not managed by the buddy allocator (e.g. reserved, memblock, ballooning etc). Memory hotplug had multiple stages with timing considerations around managed/present page updates, the zonelist rebuild and the zone span updates. As David Hildenbrand puts it memory offlining adjusts managed+present pages of the zone essentially in one go. If after the adjustments, the zone is no longer populated (present==0), we rebuild the zone lists. Once that's done, we try shrinking the zone (start+spanned pages) -- which results in zone_start_pfn == 0 if there are no more pages. That happens *after* rebuilding the zonelists via remove_pfn_range_from_zone(). The only requirement to fix the race is that a page allocation request identifies when a zonelist rebuild has happened since the allocation request started and no page has yet been allocated. Use a seqlock_t to track zonelist updates with a lockless read-side of the zonelist and protecting the rebuild and update of the counter with a spinlock.

2022-08-03page_alloc: fix invalid watermark check on a negative valueJaewon Kim1-4/+8
commit 9282012fc0aa248b77a69f5eb802b67c5a16bb13 upstream. There was a report that a task is waiting at the throttle_direct_reclaim. The pgscan_direct_throttle in vmstat was increasing. This is a bug where zone_watermark_fast returns true even when the free is very low. The commit f27ce0e14088 ("page_alloc: consider highatomic reserve in watermark fast") changed the watermark fast to consider highatomic reserve. But it did not handle a negative value case which can be happened when reserved_highatomic pageblock is bigger than the actual free. If watermark is considered as ok for the negative value, allocating contexts for order-0 will consume all free pages without direct reclaim, and finally free page may become depleted except highatomic free. Then allocating contexts may fall into throttle_direct_reclaim. This symptom may easily happen in a system where wmark min is low and other reclaimers like kswapd does not make free pages quickly. Handle the negative case by using MIN.

2022-06-09mm/page_alloc: always attempt to allocate at least one page during bulk ↵Mel Gorman1-2/+2
allocation commit c572e4888ad1be123c1516ec577ad30a700bbec4 upstream. Peter Pavlisko reported the following problem on kernel bugzilla 216007. When I try to extract an uncompressed tar archive (2.6 milion files, 760.3 GiB in size) on newly created (empty) XFS file system, after first low tens of gigabytes extracted the process hangs in iowait indefinitely. One CPU core is 100% occupied with iowait, the other CPU core is idle (on 2-core Intel Celeron G1610T). It was bisected to c9fa563072e1 ("xfs: use alloc_pages_bulk_array() for buffers") but XFS is only the messenger. The problem is that nothing is waking kswapd to reclaim some pages at a time the PCP lists cannot be refilled until some reclaim happens. The bulk allocator checks that there are some pages in the array and the original intent was that a bulk allocator did not necessarily need all the requested pages and it was best to return as quickly as possible. This was fine for the first user of the API but both NFS and XFS require the requested number of pages be available before making progress. Both could be adjusted to call the page allocator directly if a bulk allocation fails but it puts a burden on users of the API. Adjust the semantics to attempt at least one allocation via __alloc_pages() before returning so kswapd is woken if necessary. It was reported via bugzilla that the patch addressed the problem and that the tar extraction completed successfully. This may also address bug 215975 but has yet to be confirmed.

2022-04-20mm, page_alloc: fix build_zonerefs_node()Juergen Gross1-1/+1
commit e553f62f10d93551eb883eca227ac54d1a4fad84 upstream. Since commit 6aa303defb74 ("mm, vmscan: only allocate and reclaim from zones with pages managed by the buddy allocator") only zones with free memory are included in a built zonelist. This is problematic when e.g. all memory of a zone has been ballooned out when zonelists are being rebuilt. The decision whether to rebuild the zonelists when onlining new memory is done based on populated_zone() returning 0 for the zone the memory will be added to. The new zone is added to the zonelists only, if it has free memory pages (managed_zone() returns a non-zero value) after the memory has been onlined. This implies, that onlining memory will always free the added pages to the allocator immediately, but this is not true in all cases: when e.g. running as a Xen guest the onlined new memory will be added only to the ballooned memory list, it will be freed only when the guest is being ballooned up afterwards. Another problem with using managed_zone() for the decision whether a zone is being added to the zonelists is, that a zone with all memory used will in fact be removed from all zonelists in case the zonelists happen to be rebuilt. Use populated_zone() when building a zonelist as it has been done before that commit. There was a report that QubesOS (based on Xen) is hitting this problem. Xen has switched to use the zone device functionality in kernel 5.9 and QubesOS wants to use memory hotplugging for guests in order to be able to start a guest with minimal memory and expand it as needed. This was the report leading to the patch.

2022-04-08mm/pages_alloc.c: don't create ZONE_MOVABLE beyond the end of a nodeAlistair Popple1-1/+8
commit ddbc84f3f595cf1fc8234a191193b5d20ad43938 upstream. ZONE_MOVABLE uses the remaining memory in each node. Its starting pfn is also aligned to MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES. It is possible for the remaining memory in a node to be less than MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES, meaning there is not enough room for ZONE_MOVABLE on that node. Unfortunately this condition is not checked for. This leads to zone_movable_pfn[] getting set to a pfn greater than the last pfn in a node. calculate_node_totalpages() then sets zone->present_pages to be greater than zone->spanned_pages which is invalid, as spanned_pages represents the maximum number of pages in a zone assuming no holes. Subsequently it is possible free_area_init_core() will observe a zone of size zero with present pages. In this case it will skip setting up the zone, including the initialisation of free_lists[]. However populated_zone() checks zone->present_pages to see if a zone has memory available. This is used by iterators such as walk_zones_in_node(). pagetypeinfo_showfree() uses this to walk the free_list of each zone in each node, which are assumed to be initialised due to the zone not being empty. As free_area_init_core() never initialised the free_lists[] this results in the following kernel crash when trying to read /proc/pagetypeinfo: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page PGD 0 P4D 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC NOPTI CPU: 0 PID: 456 Comm: cat Not tainted 5.16.0 #461 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.14.0-2 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:pagetypeinfo_show+0x163/0x460 Code: 9e 82 e8 80 57 0e 00 49 8b 06 b9 01 00 00 00 4c 39 f0 75 16 e9 65 02 00 00 48 83 c1 01 48 81 f9 a0 86 01 00 0f 84 48 02 00 00 <48> 8b 00 4c 39 f0 75 e7 48 c7 c2 80 a2 e2 82 48 c7 c6 79 ef e3 82 RSP: 0018:ffffc90001c4bd10 EFLAGS: 00010003 RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: ffff88801105f638 RCX: 0000000000000001 RDX: 0000000000000001 RSI: 000000000000068b RDI: ffff8880163dc68b RBP: ffffc90001c4bd90 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: ffff8880163dc67e R10: 656c6261766f6d6e R11: 6c6261766f6d6e55 R12: ffff88807ffb4a00 R13: ffff88807ffb49f8 R14: ffff88807ffb4580 R15: ffff88807ffb3000 FS: 00007f9c83eff5c0(0000) GS:ffff88807dc00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000000000000000 CR3: 0000000013c8e000 CR4: 0000000000350ef0 Call Trace: seq_read_iter+0x128/0x460 proc_reg_read_iter+0x51/0x80 new_sync_read+0x113/0x1a0 vfs_read+0x136/0x1d0 ksys_read+0x70/0xf0 __x64_sys_read+0x1a/0x20 do_syscall_64+0x3b/0xc0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae Fix this by checking that the aligned zone_movable_pfn[] does not exceed the end of the node, and if it does skip creating a movable zone on this node.

commit 62b3107073646e0946bd97ff926832bafb846d17 upstream. Patch series "Handle warning of allocation failure on DMA zone w/o managed pages", v4. **Problem observed: On x86_64, when crash is triggered and entering into kdump kernel, page allocation failure can always be seen. --------------------------------- DMA: preallocated 128 KiB GFP_KERNEL pool for atomic allocations swapper/0: page allocation failure: order:5, mode:0xcc1(GFP_KERNEL|GFP_DMA), nodemask=(null),cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0 CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x7f/0xa1 warn_alloc.cold+0x72/0xd6 ...... __alloc_pages+0x24d/0x2c0 ...... dma_atomic_pool_init+0xdb/0x176 do_one_initcall+0x67/0x320 ? rcu_read_lock_sched_held+0x3f/0x80 kernel_init_freeable+0x290/0x2dc ? rest_init+0x24f/0x24f kernel_init+0xa/0x111 ret_from_fork+0x22/0x30 Mem-Info: ------------------------------------ ***Root cause: In the current kernel, it assumes that DMA zone must have managed pages and try to request pages if CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is enabled. While this is not always true. E.g in kdump kernel of x86_64, only low 1M is presented and locked down at very early stage of boot, so that this low 1M won't be added into buddy allocator to become managed pages of DMA zone. This exception will always cause page allocation failure if page is requested from DMA zone. ***Investigation: This failure happens since below commit merged into linus's tree. 1a6a9044b967 x86/setup: Remove CONFIG_X86_RESERVE_LOW and reservelow= options 23721c8e92f7 x86/crash: Remove crash_reserve_low_1M() f1d4d47c5851 x86/setup: Always reserve the first 1M of RAM 7c321eb2b843 x86/kdump: Remove the backup region handling 6f599d84231f x86/kdump: Always reserve the low 1M when the crashkernel option is specified Before them, on x86_64, the low 640K area will be reused by kdump kernel. So in kdump kernel, the content of low 640K area is copied into a backup region for dumping before jumping into kdump. Then except of those firmware reserved region in [0, 640K], the left area will be added into buddy allocator to become available managed pages of DMA zone. However, after above commits applied, in kdump kernel of x86_64, the low 1M is reserved by memblock, but not released to buddy allocator. So any later page allocation requested from DMA zone will fail. At the beginning, if crashkernel is reserved, the low 1M need be locked down because AMD SME encrypts memory making the old backup region mechanims impossible when switching into kdump kernel. Later, it was also observed that there are BIOSes corrupting memory under 1M. To solve this, in commit f1d4d47c5851, the entire region of low 1M is always reserved after the real mode trampoline is allocated. Besides, recently, Intel engineer mentioned their TDX (Trusted domain extensions) which is under development in kernel also needs to lock down the low 1M. So we can't simply revert above commits to fix the page allocation failure from DMA zone as someone suggested. ***Solution: Currently, only DMA atomic pool and dma-kmalloc will initialize and request page allocation with GFP_DMA during bootup. So only initializ DMA atomic pool when DMA zone has available managed pages, otherwise just skip the initialization. For dma-kmalloc(), for the time being, let's mute the warning of allocation failure if requesting pages from DMA zone while no manged pages. Meanwhile, change code to use dma_alloc_xx/dma_map_xx API to replace kmalloc(GFP_DMA), or do not use GFP_DMA when calling kmalloc() if not necessary. Christoph is posting patches to fix those under drivers/scsi/. Finally, we can remove the need of dma-kmalloc() as people suggested. This patch (of 3): In some places of the current kernel, it assumes that dma zone must have managed pages if CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is enabled. While this is not always true. E.g in kdump kernel of x86_64, only low 1M is presented and locked down at very early stage of boot, so that there's no managed pages at all in DMA zone.

2021-10-29mm: filemap: check if THP has hwpoisoned subpage for PMD page faultYang Shi1-1/+3
When handling shmem page fault the THP with corrupted subpage could be PMD mapped if certain conditions are satisfied. But kernel is supposed to send SIGBUS when trying to map hwpoisoned page. There are two paths which may do PMD map: fault around and regular fault. Before commit f9ce0be71d1f ("mm: Cleanup faultaround and finish_fault() codepaths") the thing was even worse in fault around path. The THP could be PMD mapped as long as the VMA fits regardless what subpage is accessed and corrupted. After this commit as long as head page is not corrupted the THP could be PMD mapped. In the regular fault path the THP could be PMD mapped as long as the corrupted page is not accessed and the VMA fits. This loophole could be fixed by iterating every subpage to check if any of them is hwpoisoned or not, but it is somewhat costly in page fault path. So introduce a new page flag called HasHWPoisoned on the first tail page. It indicates the THP has hwpoisoned subpage(s). It is set if any subpage of THP is found hwpoisoned by memory failure and after the refcount is bumped successfully, then cleared when the THP is freed or split. The soft offline path doesn't need this since soft offline handler just marks a subpage hwpoisoned when the subpage is migrated successfully. But shmem THP didn't get split then migrated at all.

However bulk page allocator does not support __GFP_ACCOUNT allocations and there are several users of kvmalloc(__GFP_ACCOUNT). For now make __GFP_ACCOUNT allocations bypass bulk page allocator.

2021-09-08mm: track present early pages per zoneDavid Hildenbrand1-0/+3
Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: "auto-movable" online policy and memory groups", v3. I. Goal The goal of this series is improving in-kernel auto-online support. It tackles the fundamental problems that: 1) We can create zone imbalances when onlining all memory blindly to ZONE_MOVABLE, in the worst case crashing the system. We have to know upfront how much memory we are going to hotplug such that we can safely enable auto-onlining of all hotplugged memory to ZONE_MOVABLE via "online_movable". This is far from practical and only applicable in limited setups -- like inside VMs under the RHV/oVirt hypervisor which will never hotplug more than 3 times the boot memory (and the limitation is only in place due to the Linux limitation). 2) We see more setups that implement dynamic VM resizing, hot(un)plugging memory to resize VM memory. In these setups, we might hotplug a lot of memory, but it might happen in various small steps in both directions (e.g., 2 GiB -> 8 GiB -> 4 GiB -> 16 GiB ...). virtio-mem is the primary driver of this upstream right now, performing such dynamic resizing NUMA-aware via multiple virtio-mem devices. Onlining all hotplugged memory to ZONE_NORMAL means we basically have no hotunplug guarantees. Onlining all to ZONE_MOVABLE means we can easily run into zone imbalances when growing a VM. We want a mixture, and we want as much memory as reasonable/configured in ZONE_MOVABLE. Details regarding zone imbalances can be found at [1]. 3) Memory devices consist of 1..X memory block devices, however, the kernel doesn't really track the relationship. Consequently, also user space has no idea. We want to make per-device decisions. As one example, for memory hotunplug it doesn't make sense to use a mixture of zones within a single DIMM: we want all MOVABLE if possible, otherwise all !MOVABLE, because any !MOVABLE part will easily block the whole DIMM from getting hotunplugged. As another example, virtio-mem operates on individual units that span 1..X memory blocks. Similar to a DIMM, we want a unit to either be all MOVABLE or !MOVABLE. A "unit" can be thought of like a DIMM, however, all units of a virtio-mem device logically belong together and are managed (added/removed) by a single driver. We want as much memory of a virtio-mem device to be MOVABLE as possible. 4) We want memory onlining to be done right from the kernel while adding memory, not triggered by user space via udev rules; for example, this is reqired for fast memory hotplug for drivers that add individual memory blocks, like virito-mem. We want a way to configure a policy in the kernel and avoid implementing advanced policies in user space. The auto-onlining support we have in the kernel is not sufficient. All we have is a) online everything MOVABLE (online_movable) b) online everything !MOVABLE (online_kernel) c) keep zones contiguous (online). This series allows configuring c) to mean instead "online movable if possible according to the coniguration, driven by a maximum MOVABLE:KERNEL ratio" -- a new onlining policy. II. Approach This series does 3 things: 1) Introduces the "auto-movable" online policy that initially operates on individual memory blocks only. It uses a maximum MOVABLE:KERNEL ratio to make a decision whether a memory block will be onlined to ZONE_MOVABLE or not. However, in the basic form, hotplugged KERNEL memory does not allow for more MOVABLE memory (details in the patches). CMA memory is treated like MOVABLE memory. 2) Introduces static (e.g., DIMM) and dynamic (e.g., virtio-mem) memory groups and uses group information to make decisions in the "auto-movable" online policy across memory blocks of a single memory device (modeled as memory group). More details can be found in patch #3 or in the DIMM example below. 3) Maximizes ZONE_MOVABLE memory within dynamic memory groups, by allowing ZONE_NORMAL memory within a dynamic memory group to allow for more ZONE_MOVABLE memory within the same memory group. The target use case is dynamic VM resizing using virtio-mem. See the virtio-mem example below. I remember that the basic idea of using a ratio to implement a policy in the kernel was once mentioned by Vitaly Kuznetsov, but I might be wrong (I lost the pointer to that discussion). For me, the main use case is using it along with virtio-mem (and DIMMs / ppc64 dlpar where necessary) for dynamic resizing of VMs, increasing the amount of memory we can hotunplug reliably again if we might eventually hotplug a lot of memory to a VM. III. Target Usage The target usage will be: 1) Linux boots with "mhp_default_online_type=offline" 2) User space (e.g., systemd unit) configures memory onlining (according to a config file and system properties), for example: * Setting memory_hotplug.online_policy=auto-movable * Setting memory_hotplug.auto_movable_ratio=301 * Setting memory_hotplug.auto_movable_numa_aware=true 3) User space enabled auto onlining via "echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/auto_online_blocks" 4) User space triggers manual onlining of all already-offline memory blocks (go over offline memory blocks and set them to "online") IV. Example For DIMMs, hotplugging 4 GiB DIMMs to a 4 GiB VM with a configured ratio of 301% results in the following layout: Memory block 0-15: DMA32 (early) Memory block 32-47: Normal (early) Memory block 48-79: Movable (DIMM 0) Memory block 80-111: Movable (DIMM 1) Memory block 112-143: Movable (DIMM 2) Memory block 144-275: Normal (DIMM 3) Memory block 176-207: Normal (DIMM 4) ... all Normal (-> hotplugged Normal memory does not allow for more Movable memory) For virtio-mem, using a simple, single virtio-mem device with a 4 GiB VM will result in the following layout: Memory block 0-15: DMA32 (early) Memory block 32-47: Normal (early) Memory block 48-143: Movable (virtio-mem, first 12 GiB) Memory block 144: Normal (virtio-mem, next 128 MiB) Memory block 145-147: Movable (virtio-mem, next 384 MiB) Memory block 148: Normal (virtio-mem, next 128 MiB) Memory block 149-151: Movable (virtio-mem, next 384 MiB) ... Normal/Movable mixture as above (-> hotplugged Normal memory allows for more Movable memory within the same device) Which gives us maximum flexibility when dynamically growing/shrinking a VM in smaller steps. V. Doc Update I'll update the memory-hotplug.rst documentation, once the overhaul [1] is usptream. Until then, details can be found in patch #2. VI. Future Work 1) Use memory groups for ppc64 dlpar 2) Being able to specify a portion of (early) kernel memory that will be excluded from the ratio. Like "128 MiB globally/per node" are excluded. This might be helpful when starting VMs with extremely small memory footprint (e.g., 128 MiB) and hotplugging memory later -- not wanting the first hotplugged units getting onlined to ZONE_MOVABLE. One alternative would be a trigger to not consider ZONE_DMA memory in the ratio. We'll have to see if this is really rrequired. 3) Indicate to user space that MOVABLE might be a bad idea -- especially relevant when memory ballooning without support for balloon compaction is active. This patch (of 9): For implementing a new memory onlining policy, which determines when to online memory blocks to ZONE_MOVABLE semi-automatically, we need the number of present early (boot) pages -- present pages excluding hotplugged pages. Let's track these pages per zone. Pass a page instead of the zone to adjust_present_page_count(), similar as adjust_managed_page_count() and derive the zone from the page. It's worth noting that a memory block to be offlined/onlined is either completely "early" or "not early". add_memory() and friends can only add complete memory blocks and we only online/offline complete (individual) memory blocks.

2021-09-08mm: remove pfn_valid_within() and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONEMike Rapoport1-22/+2
Patch series "mm: remove pfn_valid_within() and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE". After recent updates to freeing unused parts of the memory map, no architecture can have holes in the memory map within a pageblock. This makes pfn_valid_within() check and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE configuration option redundant. The first patch removes them both in a mechanical way and the second patch simplifies memory_hotplug::test_pages_in_a_zone() that had pfn_valid_within() surrounded by more logic than simple if. This patch (of 2): After recent changes in freeing of the unused parts of the memory map and rework of pfn_valid() in arm and arm64 there are no architectures that can have holes in the memory map within a pageblock and so nothing can enable CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE which guards non trivial implementation of pfn_valid_within(). With that, pfn_valid_within() is always hardwired to 1 and can be completely removed. Remove calls to pfn_valid_within() and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE.

2021-09-03mm/numa: automatically generate node migration orderDave Hansen1-1/+1
Patch series "Migrate Pages in lieu of discard", v11. We're starting to see systems with more and more kinds of memory such as Intel's implementation of persistent memory. Let's say you have a system with some DRAM and some persistent memory. Today, once DRAM fills up, reclaim will start and some of the DRAM contents will be thrown out. Allocations will, at some point, start falling over to the slower persistent memory. That has two nasty properties. First, the newer allocations can end up in the slower persistent memory. Second, reclaimed data in DRAM are just discarded even if there are gobs of space in persistent memory that could be used. This patchset implements a solution to these problems. At the end of the reclaim process in shrink_page_list() just before the last page refcount is dropped, the page is migrated to persistent memory instead of being dropped. While I've talked about a DRAM/PMEM pairing, this approach would function in any environment where memory tiers exist. This is not perfect. It "strands" pages in slower memory and never brings them back to fast DRAM. Huang Ying has follow-on work which repurposes NUMA balancing to promote hot pages back to DRAM. This is also all based on an upstream mechanism that allows persistent memory to be onlined and used as if it were volatile: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190124231441.37A4A305@viggo.jf.intel.com With that, the DRAM and PMEM in each socket will be represented as 2 separate NUMA nodes, with the CPUs sit in the DRAM node. So the general inter-NUMA demotion mechanism introduced in the patchset can migrate the cold DRAM pages to the PMEM node. We have tested the patchset with the postgresql and pgbench. On a 2-socket server machine with DRAM and PMEM, the kernel with the patchset can improve the score of pgbench up to 22.1% compared with that of the DRAM only + disk case. This comes from the reduced disk read throughput (which reduces up to 70.8%). == Open Issues == * Memory policies and cpusets that, for instance, restrict allocations to DRAM can be demoted to PMEM whenever they opt in to this new mechanism. A cgroup-level API to opt-in or opt-out of these migrations will likely be required as a follow-on. * Could be more aggressive about where anon LRU scanning occurs since it no longer necessarily involves I/O. get_scan_count() for instance says: "If we have no swap space, do not bother scanning anon pages" This patch (of 9): Prepare for the kernel to auto-migrate pages to other memory nodes with a node migration table. This allows creating single migration target for each NUMA node to enable the kernel to do NUMA page migrations instead of simply discarding colder pages. A node with no target is a "terminal node", so reclaim acts normally there. The migration target does not fundamentally _need_ to be a single node, but this implementation starts there to limit complexity. When memory fills up on a node, memory contents can be automatically migrated to another node. The biggest problems are knowing when to migrate and to where the migration should be targeted. The most straightforward way to generate the "to where" list would be to follow the page allocator fallback lists. Those lists already tell us if memory is full where to look next. It would also be logical to move memory in that order. But, the allocator fallback lists have a fatal flaw: most nodes appear in all the lists. This would potentially lead to migration cycles (A->B, B->A, A->B, ...). Instead of using the allocator fallback lists directly, keep a separate node migration ordering. But, reuse the same data used to generate page allocator fallback in the first place: find_next_best_node(). This means that the firmware data used to populate node distances essentially dictates the ordering for now. It should also be architecture-neutral since all NUMA architectures have a working find_next_best_node(). RCU is used to allow lock-less read of node_demotion[] and prevent demotion cycles been observed. If multiple reads of node_demotion[] are performed, a single rcu_read_lock() must be held over all reads to ensure no cycles are observed. Details are as follows. === What does RCU provide? === Imagine a simple loop which walks down the demotion path looking for the last node: terminal_node = start_node; while (node_demotion[terminal_node] != NUMA_NO_NODE) { terminal_node = node_demotion[terminal_node]; } The initial values are: node_demotion[0] = 1; node_demotion[1] = NUMA_NO_NODE; and are updated to: node_demotion[0] = NUMA_NO_NODE; node_demotion[1] = 0; What guarantees that the cycle is not observed: node_demotion[0] = 1; node_demotion[1] = 0; and would loop forever? With RCU, a rcu_read_lock/unlock() can be placed around the loop. Since the write side does a synchronize_rcu(), the loop that observed the old contents is known to be complete before the synchronize_rcu() has completed. RCU, combined with disable_all_migrate_targets(), ensures that the old migration state is not visible by the time __set_migration_target_nodes() is called. === What does READ_ONCE() provide? === READ_ONCE() forbids the compiler from merging or reordering successive reads of node_demotion[]. This ensures that any updates are *eventually* observed. Consider the above loop again. The compiler could theoretically read the entirety of node_demotion[] into local storage (registers) and never go back to memory, and *permanently* observe bad values for node_demotion[]. Note: RCU does not provide any universal compiler-ordering guarantees: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20150921204327.GH4029@linux.vnet.ibm.com/ This code is unused for now. It will be called later in the series.

2021-09-03mm: introduce memmap_alloc() to unify memory map allocationMike Rapoport1-2/+22
There are several places that allocate memory for the memory map: alloc_node_mem_map() for FLATMEM, sparse_buffer_init() and __populate_section_memmap() for SPARSEMEM. The memory allocated in the FLATMEM case is zeroed and it is never poisoned, regardless of CONFIG_PAGE_POISON setting. The memory allocated in the SPARSEMEM cases is not zeroed and it is implicitly poisoned inside memblock if CONFIG_PAGE_POISON is set. Introduce memmap_alloc() wrapper for memblock allocators that will be used for both FLATMEM and SPARSEMEM cases and will makei memory map zeroing and poisoning consistent for different memory models.

2021-09-03mm/page_alloc: always initialize memory map for the holesMike Rapoport1-8/+0
Patch series "mm: ensure consistency of memory map poisoning". Currently memory map allocation for FLATMEM case does not poison the struct pages regardless of CONFIG_PAGE_POISON setting. This happens because allocation of the memory map for FLATMEM and SPARSMEM use different memblock functions and those that are used for SPARSMEM case (namely memblock_alloc_try_nid_raw() and memblock_alloc_exact_nid_raw()) implicitly poison the allocated memory. Another side effect of this implicit poisoning is that early setup code that uses the same functions to allocate memory burns cycles for the memory poisoning even if it was not intended. These patches introduce memmap_alloc() wrapper that ensure that the memory map allocation is consistent for different memory models. This patch (of 4): Currently memory map for the holes is initialized only when SPARSEMEM memory model is used. Yet, even with FLATMEM there could be holes in the physical memory layout that have memory map entries. For instance, the memory reserved using e820 API on i386 or "reserved-memory" nodes in device tree would not appear in memblock.memory and hence the struct pages for such holes will be skipped during memory map initialization. These struct pages will be zeroed because the memory map for FLATMEM systems is allocated with memblock_alloc_node() that clears the allocated memory. While zeroed struct pages do not cause immediate problems, the correct behaviour is to initialize every page using __init_single_page(). Besides, enabling page poison for FLATMEM case will trigger PF_POISONED_CHECK() unless the memory map is properly initialized. Make sure init_unavailable_range() is called for both SPARSEMEM and FLATMEM so that struct pages representing memory holes would appear as PG_Reserved with any memory layout.

2021-08-20mm/page_alloc: don't corrupt pcppage_migratetypeDoug Berger1-13/+12
When placing pages on a pcp list, migratetype values over MIGRATE_PCPTYPES get added to the MIGRATE_MOVABLE pcp list. However, the actual migratetype is preserved in the page and should not be changed to MIGRATE_MOVABLE or the page may end up on the wrong free_list. The impact is that HIGHATOMIC or CMA pages getting bulk freed from the PCP lists could potentially end up on the wrong buddy list. There are various consequences but minimally NR_FREE_CMA_PAGES accounting could get screwed up.

2021-07-15mm/page_alloc: further fix __alloc_pages_bulk() return valueChuck Lever1-6/+8
The author of commit b3b64ebd3822 ("mm/page_alloc: do bulk array bounds check after checking populated elements") was possibly confused by the mixture of return values throughout the function. The API contract is clear that the function "Returns the number of pages on the list or array." It does not list zero as a unique return value with a special meaning. Therefore zero is a plausible return value only if @nr_pages is zero or less. Clean up the return logic to make it clear that the returned value is always the total number of pages in the array/list, not the number of pages that were allocated during this call. The only change in behavior with this patch is the value returned if prepare_alloc_pages() fails. To match the API contract, the number of pages currently in the array/list is returned in this case. The call site in __page_pool_alloc_pages_slow() also seems to be confused on this matter. It should be attended to by someone who is familiar with that code.

2021-07-15mm/page_alloc: avoid page allocator recursion with pagesets.lock heldMel Gorman1-0/+12
Syzbot is reporting potential deadlocks due to pagesets.lock when PAGE_OWNER is enabled. One example from Desmond Cheong Zhi Xi is as follows __alloc_pages_bulk() local_lock_irqsave(&pagesets.lock, flags) <---- outer lock here prep_new_page(): post_alloc_hook(): set_page_owner(): __set_page_owner(): save_stack(): stack_depot_save(): alloc_pages(): alloc_page_interleave(): __alloc_pages(): get_page_from_freelist(): rm_queue(): rm_queue_pcplist(): local_lock_irqsave(&pagesets.lock, flags); *** DEADLOCK *** Zhang, Qiang also reported BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/page_alloc.c:5179 in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 1, non_block: 0, pid: 1, name: swapper/0 ..... __dump_stack lib/dump_stack.c:79 [inline] dump_stack_lvl+0xcd/0x134 lib/dump_stack.c:96 ___might_sleep.cold+0x1f1/0x237 kernel/sched/core.c:9153 prepare_alloc_pages+0x3da/0x580 mm/page_alloc.c:5179 __alloc_pages+0x12f/0x500 mm/page_alloc.c:5375 alloc_page_interleave+0x1e/0x200 mm/mempolicy.c:2147 alloc_pages+0x238/0x2a0 mm/mempolicy.c:2270 stack_depot_save+0x39d/0x4e0 lib/stackdepot.c:303 save_stack+0x15e/0x1e0 mm/page_owner.c:120 __set_page_owner+0x50/0x290 mm/page_owner.c:181 prep_new_page mm/page_alloc.c:2445 [inline] __alloc_pages_bulk+0x8b9/0x1870 mm/page_alloc.c:5313 alloc_pages_bulk_array_node include/linux/gfp.h:557 [inline] vm_area_alloc_pages mm/vmalloc.c:2775 [inline] __vmalloc_area_node mm/vmalloc.c:2845 [inline] __vmalloc_node_range+0x39d/0x960 mm/vmalloc.c:2947 __vmalloc_node mm/vmalloc.c:2996 [inline] vzalloc+0x67/0x80 mm/vmalloc.c:3066 There are a number of ways it could be fixed. The page owner code could be audited to strip GFP flags that allow sleeping but it'll impair the functionality of PAGE_OWNER if allocations fail. The bulk allocator could add a special case to release/reacquire the lock for prep_new_page and lookup PCP after the lock is reacquired at the cost of performance. The pages requiring prep could be tracked using the least significant bit and looping through the array although it is more complicated for the list interface. The options are relatively complex and the second one still incurs a performance penalty when PAGE_OWNER is active so this patch takes the simple approach -- disable bulk allocation of PAGE_OWNER is active. The caller will be forced to allocate one page at a time incurring a performance penalty but PAGE_OWNER is already a performance penalty.
