It was hard to keep a test running, moving tasks between memcgs with
move_charge_at_immigrate, while swapping: mem_cgroup_id_get_many()'s
refcount is discovered to be 0 (supposedly impossible), so it is then
forced to REFCOUNT_SATURATED, and after thousands of warnings in quick
succession, the test is at last put out of misery by being OOM killed.
This is because of the way moved_swap accounting was saved up until the
task move gets completed in __mem_cgroup_clear_mc(), deferred from when
mem_cgroup_move_swap_account() actually exchanged old and new ids.
Concurrent activity can free up swap quicker than the task is scanned,
bringing id refcount down 0 (which should only be possible when
offlining).
Just skip that optimization: do that part of the accounting immediately.

Prabhakar reported an OOPS inside mem_cgroup_get_nr_swap_pages()
function in a corner case seen on some arm64 boards when kdump kernel
runs with "cgroup_disable=memory" passed to the kdump kernel via
bootargs.
The root-cause behind the same is that currently mem_cgroup_swap_init()
function is implemented as a subsys_initcall() call instead of a
core_initcall(), this means 'cgroup_memory_noswap' still remains set to
the default value (false) even when memcg is disabled via
"cgroup_disable=memory" boot parameter.
This may result in premature OOPS inside mem_cgroup_get_nr_swap_pages()
function in corner cases:

VMA with VM_GROWSDOWN or VM_GROWSUP flag set can change their size under
mmap_read_lock(). It can lead to race with __do_munmap():
Thread A Thread B
__do_munmap()
detach_vmas_to_be_unmapped()
mmap_write_downgrade()
expand_downwards()
vma->vm_start = address;
// The VMA now overlaps with
// VMAs detached by the Thread A
// page fault populates expanded part
// of the VMA
unmap_region()
// Zaps pagetables partly
// populated by Thread B
Similar race exists for expand_upwards().
The fix is to avoid downgrading mmap_lock in __do_munmap() if detached
VMAs are next to VM_GROWSDOWN or VM_GROWSUP VMA.

Naresh Kamboju reported that the LTP tests can cause warnings on i386
going back all the way to v5.0, and bisected it to commit 2c91bd4a4e2e
("mm: speed up mremap by 20x on large regions").
The warning in move_normal_pmd() is actually mostly correct, but we have
a very unusual special case at process creation time, when we may move
the stack down with an overlapping mode (kind of like a "memmove()"
except using the page tables).
And when you have just the right condition of "move a large initial
stack by the right alignment in the end, but with the early part of the
move being only page-aligned", we'll be in a situation where we're
trying to move a normal PMD entry on top of an already existing - but
now empty - PMD entry.
The warning is still worth having, in case it ever triggers other cases,
and perhaps as a reminder that we could do the stack move case more
efficiently (although it's clearly rare enough that it probably doesn't
matter).
But make it do WARN_ON_ONCE(), so that you can't flood the logs with it.
And add a *big* comment above it to explain and remind us what's going
on, because it took some figuring out to see how this could trigger.
Kudos to Joel Fernandes for debugging this.

I realize that we fairly recently raised it to 4.8, but the fact is, 4.9
is a much better minimum version to target.
We have a number of workarounds for actual bugs in pre-4.9 gcc versions
(including things like internal compiler errors on ARM), but we also
have some syntactic workarounds for lacking features.
In particular, raising the minimum to 4.9 means that we can now just
assume _Generic() exists, which is likely the much better replacement
for a lot of very convoluted built-time magic with conditionals on
sizeof and/or __builtin_choose_expr() with same_type() etc.
Using _Generic also means that you will need to have a very recent
version of 'sparse', but thats easy to build yourself, and much less of
a hassle than some old gcc version can be.
The latest (in a long string) of reasons for minimum compiler version
upgrades was commit 5435f73d5c4a ("efi/x86: Fix build with gcc 4").
Ard points out that RHEL 7 uses gcc-4.8, but the people who stay back on
old RHEL versions persumably also don't build their own kernels anyway.
And maybe they should cross-built or just have a little side affair with
a newer compiler?

Add an IOCB_NOIO flag that indicates to generic_file_read_iter that it
shouldn't trigger any filesystem I/O for the actual request or for
readahead. This allows to do tentative reads out of the page cache as
some filesystems allow, and to take the appropriate locks and retry the
reads only if the requested pages are not cached.

Calling cma_declare_contiguous_nid() with false exact_nid for per-numa
reservation can easily cause cma leak and various confusion. For example,
mm/hugetlb.c is trying to reserve per-numa cma for gigantic pages. But it
can easily leak cma and make users confused when system has memoryless
nodes.
In case the system has 4 numa nodes, and only numa node0 has memory. if
we set hugetlb_cma=4G in bootargs, mm/hugetlb.c will get 4 cma areas for 4
different numa nodes. since exact_nid=false in current code, all 4 numa
nodes will get cma successfully from node0, but hugetlb_cma[1 to 3] will
never be available to hugepage will only allocate memory from
hugetlb_cma[0].
In case the system has 4 numa nodes, both numa node0&2 has memory, other
nodes have no memory. if we set hugetlb_cma=4G in bootargs, mm/hugetlb.c
will get 4 cma areas for 4 different numa nodes. since exact_nid=false in
current code, all 4 numa nodes will get cma successfully from node0 or 2,
but hugetlb_cma[1] and [3] will never be available to hugepage as
mm/hugetlb.c will only allocate memory from hugetlb_cma[0] and
hugetlb_cma[2]. This causes permanent leak of the cma areas which are
supposed to be used by memoryless node.
Of cource we can workaround the issue by letting mm/hugetlb.c scan all cma
areas in alloc_gigantic_page() even node_mask includes node0 only. that
means when node_mask includes node0 only, we can get page from
hugetlb_cma[1] to hugetlb_cma[3]. But this will cause kernel crash in
free_gigantic_page() while it wants to free page by:
cma_release(hugetlb_cma[page_to_nid(page)], page, 1 << order)
On the other hand, exact_nid=false won't consider numa distance, it might
be not that useful to leverage cma areas on remote nodes. I feel it is
much simpler to make exact_nid true to make everything clear. After that,
memoryless nodes won't be able to reserve per-numa CMA from other nodes
which have memory.

The routine hpage_nr_pages() was incorrectly used to calculate the number
of base pages in a hugetlb page. hpage_nr_pages is designed to be called
for THP pages and will return HPAGE_PMD_NR for hugetlb pages of any size.
Due to the context in which hpage_nr_pages was called, it is unlikely to
produce a user visible error. The routine with the incorrect call is only
exercised in the case of hugetlb memory error or migration. In addition,
this would need to be on an architecture which supports huge page sizes
less than PMD_SIZE. And, the vma containing the huge page would also need
to smaller than PMD_SIZE.

When working with very large nodes, poisoning the struct pages (for which
there will be very many) can take a very long time. If the system is
using voluntary preemptions, the software watchdog will not be able to
detect forward progress. This patch addresses this issue by offering to
give up time like __remove_pages() does. This behavior was introduced in
v5.6 with: commit d33695b16a9f ("mm/memory_hotplug: poison memmap in
remove_pfn_range_from_zone()")
Alternately, init_page_poison could do this cond_resched(), but it seems
to me that the caller of init_page_poison() is what actually knows whether
or not it should relax its own priority.
Based on Dan's notes, I think this is perfectly safe: commit f931ab479dd2
("mm: fix devm_memremap_pages crash, use mem_hotplug_{begin, done}")
Aside from fixing the lockup, it is also a friendlier thing to do on lower
core systems that might wipe out large chunks of hotplug memory (probably
not a very common case).
Fixes this kind of splat:

Patch series "fix for "mm: balance LRU lists based on relative
thrashing" patchset"
This patchset fixes some problems of the patchset, "mm: balance LRU
lists based on relative thrashing", which is now merged on the mainline.
Patch "mm: workingset: let cache workingset challenge anon fix" is the
result of discussion with Johannes. See following link.
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200520232525.798933-6-hannes@cmpxchg.org
And, the other two are minor things which are found when I try to rebase
my patchset.
This patch (of 3):
After ("mm: workingset: let cache workingset challenge anon fix"), we
compare refault distances to active_file + anon. But age of the
non-resident information is only driven by the file LRU. As a result,
we may overestimate the recency of any incoming refaults and activate
them too eagerly, causing unnecessary LRU churn in certain situations.
Make anon aging drive nonresident age as well to address that.

This happens when parent_usage == siblings_protected.
We check that usage is bigger than protected, which should imply
parent_usage being bigger than siblings_protected. However, we don't
read (or even update) these values atomically, and they can be out of
sync as the memory state changes under us. A bit of fluctuation around
the target protection isn't a big deal, but we need to handle the div0
case.
Check the parent state explicitly to make sure we have a reasonable
positive value for the divisor.

Calls to pte_offset_map() in vm_insert_pages() are erroneously not
matched with a call to pte_unmap(). This would cause problems on
architectures where that is not a no-op.
This patch does away with the non-traditional locking in the existing
code, and instead uses pte_offset_map_lock/unlock() as usual,
incrementing PTE as necessary. The PTE pointer is kept within bounds
since we clamp it with PTRS_PER_PTE.

According to Christopher Lameter two fixes have been merged for the same
problem. As far as I can tell, the code does not acquire the list_lock
and invoke kmalloc(). list_slab_objects() misses an unlock (the
counterpart to get_map()) and the memory allocated in free_partial()
isn't used.
Revert the mentioned commit.

The kzfree() function is normally used to clear some sensitive
information, like encryption keys, in the buffer before freeing it back to
the pool. Memset() is currently used for buffer clearing. However
unlikely, there is still a non-zero probability that the compiler may
choose to optimize away the memory clearing especially if LTO is being
used in the future.
To make sure that this optimization will never happen,
memzero_explicit(), which is introduced in v3.18, is now used in
kzfree() to future-proof it.

It was found that running the LTP test on a PowerPC system could produce
erroneous values in /proc/meminfo, like:
MemTotal: 531915072 kB
MemFree: 507962176 kB
MemAvailable: 1100020596352 kB
Using bisection, the problem is tracked down to commit 9c315e4d7d8c ("mm:
memcg/slab: cache page number in memcg_(un)charge_slab()").
In memcg_uncharge_slab() with a "int order" argument:
unsigned int nr_pages = 1 << order;
:
mod_lruvec_state(lruvec, cache_vmstat_idx(s), -nr_pages);
The mod_lruvec_state() function will eventually call the
__mod_zone_page_state() which accepts a long argument. Depending on the
compiler and how inlining is done, "-nr_pages" may be treated as a
negative number or a very large positive number. Apparently, it was
treated as a large positive number in that PowerPC system leading to
incorrect stat counts. This problem hasn't been seen in x86-64 yet,
perhaps the gcc compiler there has some slight difference in behavior.
It is fixed by making nr_pages a signed value. For consistency, a similar
change is applied to memcg_charge_slab() as well.

Hugh reports:
"While stressing compaction, one run oopsed on NULL capc->cc in
__free_one_page()'s task_capc(zone): compact_zone_order() had been
interrupted, and a page was being freed in the return from interrupt.
Though you would not expect it from the source, both gccs I was using
(4.8.1 and 7.5.0) had chosen to compile compact_zone_order() with the
".cc = &cc" implemented by mov %rbx,-0xb0(%rbp) immediately before
callq compact_zone - long after the "current->capture_control =
&capc". An interrupt in between those finds capc->cc NULL (zeroed by
an earlier rep stos).
This could presumably be fixed by a barrier() before setting
current->capture_control in compact_zone_order(); but would also need
more care on return from compact_zone(), in order not to risk leaking
a page captured by interrupt just before capture_control is reset.
Maybe that is the preferable fix, but I felt safer for task_capc() to
exclude the rather surprising possibility of capture at interrupt
time"
I have checked that gcc10 also behaves the same.
The advantage of fix in compact_zone_order() is that we don't add
another test in the page freeing hot path, and that it might prevent
future problems if we stop exposing pointers to uninitialized structures
in current task.
So this patch implements the suggestion for compact_zone_order() with
barrier() (and WRITE_ONCE() to prevent store tearing) for setting
current->capture_control, and prevents page leaking with
WRITE_ONCE/READ_ONCE in the proper order.

do_swap_page() returns error codes from the VM_FAULT* space. try_charge()
might return -ENOMEM, though, and then do_swap_page() simply returns 0
which means a success.
We almost never return ENOMEM for GFP_KERNEL single page charge. Except
for async OOM handling (oom_disabled v1). So this needs translation to
VM_FAULT_OOM otherwise the the page fault path will not notify the
userspace and wait for an action.

use READ_ONCE() to access complex page table entries like the one

Define a ptep_get() helper that architectures can override instead
of performing a READ_ONCE() on the page table entry pointer.

"The Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer (KCSAN) is a dynamic race detector,
which relies on compile-time instrumentation, and uses a
watchpoint-based sampling approach to detect races.
The feature was under development for quite some time and has already
found legitimate bugs.
Unfortunately it comes with a limitation, which was only understood
late in the development cycle:
It requires an up to date CLANG-11 compiler
CLANG-11 is not yet released (scheduled for June), but it's the only
compiler today which handles the kernel requirements and especially
the annotations of functions to exclude them from KCSAN
instrumentation correctly.
These annotations really need to work so that low level entry code and
especially int3 text poke handling can be completely isolated.
A detailed discussion of the requirements and compiler issues can be
found here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CANpmjNMTsY_8241bS7=XAfqvZHFLrVEkv_uM4aDUWE_kh3Rvbw@mail.gmail.com/
We came to the conclusion that trying to work around compiler
limitations and bugs again would end up in a major trainwreck, so
requiring a working compiler seemed to be the best choice.
For Continous Integration purposes the compiler restriction is
manageable and that's where most xxSAN reports come from.
For a change this limitation might make GCC people actually look at
their bugs. Some issues with CSAN in GCC are 7 years old and one has
been 'fixed' 3 years ago with a half baken solution which 'solved' the
reported issue but not the underlying problem.
The KCSAN developers also ponder to use a GCC plugin to become
independent, but that's not something which will show up in a few
days.
Blocking KCSAN until wide spread compiler support is available is not
a really good alternative because the continuous growth of lockless
optimizations in the kernel demands proper tooling support"

Action Required memory error should happen only when a processor is
about to access to a corrupted memory, so it's synchronous and only
affects current process/thread.
Recently commit 872e9a205c84 ("mm, memory_failure: don't send
BUS_MCEERR_AO for action required error") fixed the issue that Action
Required memory could unnecessarily send SIGBUS to the processes which
share the error memory. But we still have another issue that we could
send SIGBUS to a wrong thread.
This is because collect_procs() and task_early_kill() fails to add the
current process to "to-kill" list. So this patch is suggesting to fix
it. With this fix, SIGBUS(BUS_MCEERR_AR) is never sent to non-current
process/thread.

vm.memory_failure_early_kill
Patch series "hwpoison: fixes signaling on memory error"
This is a small patchset to solve issues in memory error handler to send
SIGBUS to proper process/thread as expected in configuration. Please
see descriptions in individual patches for more details.
This patch (of 2):
Early-kill policy is controlled from two types of settings, one is
per-process setting prctl(PR_MCE_KILL) and the other is system-wide
setting vm.memory_failure_early_kill. Users expect per-process setting
to override system-wide setting as many other settings do, but
early-kill setting doesn't work as such.
For example, if a system configures vm.memory_failure_early_kill to 1
(enabled), a process receives SIGBUS even if it's configured to
explicitly disable PF_MCE_KILL by prctl(). That's not desirable for
applications with their own policies.
This patch is suggesting to change the priority of these two types of
settings, by checking sysctl_memory_failure_early_kill only when a given
process has the default kill policy.
Note that this patch is solving a thread choice issue too.
Originally, collect_procs() always chooses the main thread when
vm.memory_failure_early_kill is 1, even if the process has a dedicated
thread for memory error handling. SIGBUS should be sent to the
dedicated thread if early-kill is enabled via
vm.memory_failure_early_kill as we are doing for PR_MCE_KILL_EARLY
processes.

Switch the function documentation to kerneldoc comments, and add

not have ->mm set (or has ->mm set in the case of unuse_mm).
Also give the functions a kthread_ prefix to better document the use case.

Patch series "improve use_mm / unuse_mm", v2.
This series improves the use_mm / unuse_mm interface by better documenting
the assumptions, and my taking the set_fs manipulations spread over the
callers into the core API.
This patch (of 3):
Use the proper API instead.
Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200404094101.672954-1-hch@lst.de
These helpers are only for use with kernel threads, and I will tie them
more into the kthread infrastructure going forward. Also move the
prototypes to kthread.h - mmu_context.h was a little weird to start with
as it otherwise contains very low-level MM bits.
