2022-03-22NUMA balancing: optimize page placement for memory tiering systemHuang Ying
With the advent of various new memory types, some machines will have multiple types of memory, e.g. DRAM and PMEM (persistent memory). The memory subsystem of these machines can be called memory tiering system, because the performance of the different types of memory are usually different. In such system, because of the memory accessing pattern changing etc, some pages in the slow memory may become hot globally. So in this patch, the NUMA balancing mechanism is enhanced to optimize the page placement among the different memory types according to hot/cold dynamically. In a typical memory tiering system, there are CPUs, fast memory and slow memory in each physical NUMA node. The CPUs and the fast memory will be put in one logical node (called fast memory node), while the slow memory will be put in another (faked) logical node (called slow memory node). That is, the fast memory is regarded as local while the slow memory is regarded as remote. So it's possible for the recently accessed pages in the slow memory node to be promoted to the fast memory node via the existing NUMA balancing mechanism. The original NUMA balancing mechanism will stop to migrate pages if the free memory of the target node becomes below the high watermark. This is a reasonable policy if there's only one memory type. But this makes the original NUMA balancing mechanism almost do not work to optimize page placement among different memory types. Details are as follows. It's the common cases that the working-set size of the workload is larger than the size of the fast memory nodes. Otherwise, it's unnecessary to use the slow memory at all. So, there are almost always no enough free pages in the fast memory nodes, so that the globally hot pages in the slow memory node cannot be promoted to the fast memory node. To solve the issue, we have 2 choices as follows, a. Ignore the free pages watermark checking when promoting hot pages from the slow memory node to the fast memory node. This will create some memory pressure in the fast memory node, thus trigger the memory reclaiming. So that, the cold pages in the fast memory node will be demoted to the slow memory node. b. Define a new watermark called wmark_promo which is higher than wmark_high, and have kswapd reclaiming pages until free pages reach such watermark. The scenario is as follows: when we want to promote hot-pages from a slow memory to a fast memory, but fast memory's free pages would go lower than high watermark with such promotion, we wake up kswapd with wmark_promo watermark in order to demote cold pages and free us up some space. So, next time we want to promote hot-pages we might have a chance of doing so. The choice "a" may create high memory pressure in the fast memory node. If the memory pressure of the workload is high, the memory pressure may become so high that the memory allocation latency of the workload is influenced, e.g. the direct reclaiming may be triggered. The choice "b" works much better at this aspect. If the memory pressure of the workload is high, the hot pages promotion will stop earlier because its allocation watermark is higher than that of the normal memory allocation. So in this patch, choice "b" is implemented. A new zone watermark (WMARK_PROMO) is added. Which is larger than the high watermark and can be controlled via watermark_scale_factor. In addition to the original page placement optimization among sockets, the NUMA balancing mechanism is extended to be used to optimize page placement according to hot/cold among different memory types. So the sysctl user space interface (numa_balancing) is extended in a backward compatible way as follow, so that the users can enable/disable these functionality individually. The sysctl is converted from a Boolean value to a bits field. The definition of the flags is, - 0: NUMA_BALANCING_DISABLED - 1: NUMA_BALANCING_NORMAL - 2: NUMA_BALANCING_MEMORY_TIERING We have tested the patch with the pmbench memory accessing benchmark with the 80:20 read/write ratio and the Gauss access address distribution on a 2 socket Intel server with Optane DC Persistent Memory Model. The test results shows that the pmbench score can improve up to 95.9%. Thanks Andrew Morton to help fix the document format error.

The task is leaving, the resources will be freed and the accounting can happen in do_exit() before the actual schedule invocation which frees the stack memory.

2022-02-15iommu/sva: Assign a PASID to mm on PASID allocation and free it on mm exitFenghua Yu
PASIDs are process-wide. It was attempted to use refcounted PASIDs to free them when the last thread drops the refcount. This turned out to be complex and error prone. Given the fact that the PASID space is 20 bits, which allows up to 1M processes to have a PASID associated concurrently, PASID resource exhaustion is not a realistic concern. Therefore, it was decided to simplify the approach and stick with lazy on demand PASID allocation, but drop the eager free approach and make an allocated PASID's lifetime bound to the lifetime of the process. Get rid of the refcounting mechanisms and replace/rename the interfaces to reflect this new approach.

2022-02-14kernel/fork: Initialize mm's PASIDFenghua Yu
A new mm doesn't have a PASID yet when it's created. Initialize the mm's PASID on fork() or for init_mm to INVALID_IOASID (-1). INIT_PASID (0) is reserved for kernel legacy DMA PASID. It cannot be allocated to a user process. Initializing the process's PASID to 0 may cause confusion that's why the process uses the reserved kernel legacy DMA PASID. Initializing the PASID to INVALID_IOASID (-1) explicitly tells the process doesn't have a valid PASID yet. Even though the only user of mm_pasid_init() is in fork.c, define it in <linux/sched/mm.h> as the first of three mm/pasid life cycle functions (init/set/drop) to keep these all together.

2022-02-11sched/fair: Adjust the allowed NUMA imbalance when SD_NUMA spans multiple LLCsMel Gorman
Commit 7d2b5dd0bcc4 ("sched/numa: Allow a floating imbalance between NUMA nodes") allowed an imbalance between NUMA nodes such that communicating tasks would not be pulled apart by the load balancer. This works fine when there is a 1:1 relationship between LLC and node but can be suboptimal for multiple LLCs if independent tasks prematurely use CPUs sharing cache. Zen* has multiple LLCs per node with local memory channels and due to the allowed imbalance, it's far harder to tune some workloads to run optimally than it is on hardware that has 1 LLC per node. This patch allows an imbalance to exist up to the point where LLCs should be balanced between nodes. On a Zen3 machine running STREAM parallelised with OMP to have on instance per LLC the results and without binding, the results are 5.17.0-rc0 5.17.0-rc0 vanilla sched-numaimb-v6 MB/sec copy-16 162596.94 ( 0.00%) 580559.74 ( 257.05%) MB/sec scale-16 136901.28 ( 0.00%) 374450.52 ( 173.52%) MB/sec add-16 157300.70 ( 0.00%) 564113.76 ( 258.62%) MB/sec triad-16 151446.88 ( 0.00%) 564304.24 ( 272.61%) STREAM can use directives to force the spread if the OpenMP is new enough but that doesn't help if an application uses threads and it's not known in advance how many threads will be created. Coremark is a CPU and cache intensive benchmark parallelised with threads. When running with 1 thread per core, the vanilla kernel allows threads to contend on cache.

The kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain.

2022-01-15mm: introduce memalloc_retry_wait()NeilBrown
Various places in the kernel - largely in filesystems - respond to a memory allocation failure by looping around and re-trying. Some of these cannot conveniently use __GFP_NOFAIL, for reasons such as: - a GFP_ATOMIC allocation, which __GFP_NOFAIL doesn't work on - a need to check for the process being signalled between failures - the possibility that other recovery actions could be performed - the allocation is quite deep in support code, and passing down an extra flag to say if __GFP_NOFAIL is wanted would be clumsy. Many of these currently use congestion_wait() which (in almost all cases) simply waits the given timeout - congestion isn't tracked for most devices. It isn't clear what the best delay is for loops, but it is clear that the various filesystems shouldn't be responsible for choosing a timeout. This patch introduces memalloc_retry_wait() with takes on that responsibility. Code that wants to retry a memory allocation can call this function passing the GFP flags that were used. It will wait however is appropriate. For now, it only considers __GFP_NORETRY and whatever gfpflags_allow_blocking() tests. If blocking is allowed without __GFP_NORETRY, then alloc_page either made some reclaim progress, or waited for a while, before failing. So there is no need for much further waiting. memalloc_retry_wait() will wait until the current jiffie ends. If this condition is not met, then alloc_page() won't have waited much if at all. In that case memalloc_retry_wait() waits about 200ms. This is the delay that most current loops uses. linux/sched/mm.h needs to be included in some files now, but linux/backing-dev.h does not.

2022-01-08signal: Remove the helper signal_group_exitEric W. Biederman
This helper is misleading. It tests for an ongoing exec as well as the process having received a fatal signal. Sometimes it is appropriate to treat an on-going exec differently than a process that is shutting down due to a fatal signal. In particular taking the fast path out of exit_signals instead of retargeting signals is not appropriate during exec, and not changing the the exit code in do_group_exit during exec. Removing the helper makes it more obvious what is going on as both cases must be coded for explicitly. While removing the helper fix the two cases where I have observed using signal_group_exit resulted in the wrong result. In exit_signals only test for SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT so that signals are retargetted during an exec. In do_group_exit use 0 as the exit code during an exec as de_thread does not set group_exit_code. As best as I can determine group_exit_code has been is set to 0 most of the time during de_thread. During a thread group stop group_exit_code is set to the stop signal and when the thread group receives SIGCONT group_exit_code is reset to 0.

2022-01-08signal: Remove SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMPEric W. Biederman
After the previous cleanups "signal->core_state" is set whenever SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP is set and "signal->core_state" is tested whenver the code wants to know if a coredump is in progress. The remaining tests of SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP also test to see if SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT is set. Similarly the only place that sets SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP also sets SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT. Which makes SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP unecessary and redundant. So stop setting SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP, stop testing SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP, and remove it's definition. With the setting of SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP gone, coredump_finish no longer needs to clear SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP out of signal->flags by setting SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT.

2021-12-13exit: Add and use make_task_dead.Eric W. Biederman
There are two big uses of do_exit. The first is it's design use to be the guts of the exit(2) system call. The second use is to terminate a task after something catastrophic has happened like a NULL pointer in kernel code. Add a function make_task_dead that is initialy exactly the same as do_exit to cover the cases where do_exit is called to handle catastrophic failure. In time this can probably be reduced to just a light wrapper around do_task_dead. For now keep it exactly the same so that there will be no behavioral differences introducing this new concept. Replace all of the uses of do_exit that use it for catastraphic task cleanup with make_task_dead to make it clear what the code is doing. As part of this rename rewind_stack_do_exit rewind_stack_and_make_dead. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>

2021-12-02sched/cputime: Fix getrusage(RUSAGE_THREAD) with nohz_fullFrederic Weisbecker
getrusage(RUSAGE_THREAD) with nohz_full may return shorter utime/stime than the actual time. task_cputime_adjusted() snapshots utime and stime and then adjust their sum to match the scheduler maintained cputime.sum_exec_runtime. Unfortunately in nohz_full, sum_exec_runtime is only updated once per second in the worst case, causing a discrepancy against utime and stime that can be updated anytime by the reader using vtime. To fix this situation, perform an update of cputime.sum_exec_runtime when the cputime snapshot reports the task as actually running while the tick is disabled. The related overhead is then contained within the relevant situations.

2021-11-20shm: extend forced shm destroy to support objects from several IPC nsesAlexander Mikhalitsyn
Currently, the exit_shm() function not designed to work properly when task->sysvshm.shm_clist holds shm objects from different IPC namespaces. This is a real pain when sysctl kernel.shm_rmid_forced = 1, because it leads to use-after-free (reproducer exists). This is an attempt to fix the problem by extending exit_shm mechanism to handle shm's destroy from several IPC ns'es. To achieve that we do several things: 1. add a namespace (non-refcounted) pointer to the struct shmid_kernel 2. during new shm object creation (newseg()/shmget syscall) we initialize this pointer by current task IPC ns 3. exit_shm() fully reworked such that it traverses over all shp's in task->sysvshm.shm_clist and gets IPC namespace not from current task as it was before but from shp's object itself, then call shm_destroy(shp, ns). Note: We need to be really careful here, because as it was said before (1), our pointer to IPC ns non-refcnt'ed. To be on the safe side we using special helper get_ipc_ns_not_zero() which allows to get IPC ns refcounter only if IPC ns not in the "state of destruction". Q/A Q: Why can we access shp->ns memory using non-refcounted pointer? A: Because shp object lifetime is always shorther than IPC namespace lifetime, so, if we get shp object from the task->sysvshm.shm_clist while holding task_lock(task) nobody can steal our namespace. Q: Does this patch change semantics of unshare/setns/clone syscalls? A: No. It's just fixes non-covered case when process may leave IPC namespace without getting task->sysvshm.shm_clist list cleaned up.

2021-11-19signal: Replace force_fatal_sig with force_exit_sig when in doubtEric W. Biederman
Recently to prevent issues with SECCOMP_RET_KILL and similar signals being changed before they are delivered SA_IMMUTABLE was added. Unfortunately this broke debuggers[1][2] which reasonably expect to be able to trap synchronous SIGTRAP and SIGSEGV even when the target process is not configured to handle those signals. Add force_exit_sig and use it instead of force_fatal_sig where historically the code has directly called do_exit. This has the implementation benefits of going through the signal exit path (including generating core dumps) without the danger of allowing userspace to ignore or change these signals. This avoids userspace regressions as older kernels exited with do_exit which debuggers also can not intercept. In the future is should be possible to improve the quality of implementation of the kernel by changing some of these force_exit_sig calls to force_fatal_sig. That can be done where it matters on a case-by-case basis with careful analysis.

2021-11-17signal: Requeue signals in the appropriate queueEric W. Biederman
In the event that a tracer changes which signal needs to be delivered and that signal is currently blocked then the signal needs to be requeued for later delivery. With the advent of CLONE_THREAD the kernel has 2 signal queues per task. The per process queue and the per task queue. Update the code so that if the signal is removed from the per process queue it is requeued on the per process queue. This is necessary to make it appear the signal was never dequeued. The rr debugger reasonably believes that the state of the process from the last ptrace_stop it observed until PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT can be recreated by simply letting a process run. If a SIGKILL interrupts a ptrace_stop this is not true today. So return signals to their original queue in ptrace_signal so that signals that are not delivered appear like they were never dequeued.

This series of changes starts with ptrace_stop and cleans it up, making it easier to follow what is happening in ptrace_stop. Then cleans up the exec interactions with coredumps. Then cleans up the coredump interactions with exit. Finally the coredump interactions with the signal handling code is cleaned up. The first and last changes are bug fixes for minor bugs. I believe the fact that vfork followed by execve can kill the process the called vfork if exec fails is sufficient justification to change the userspace visible behavior. In previous discussions some of these changes were organized differently and individually appeared to make the code base worse. As currently written I believe they all stand on their own as cleanups and bug fixes. Which means that even if the worst should happen and the last change needs to be reverted for some unimaginable reason, the code base will still be improved. If the worst does not happen there are a more cleanups that can be made. Signals that generate coredumps can easily become eligible for short circuit delivery in complete_signal. The entire rendezvous for generating a coredump can move into get_signal. The function force_sig_info_to_task be written in a way that does not modify the signal handling state of the target task (because coredumps are eligible for short circuit delivery).

2021-10-29signal: Implement force_fatal_sigEric W. Biederman
Add a simple helper force_fatal_sig that causes a signal to be delivered to a process as if the signal handler was set to SIG_DFL. Reimplement force_sigsegv based upon this new helper. This fixes force_sigsegv so that when it forces the default signal handler to be used the code now forces the signal to be unblocked as well. Reusing the tested logic in force_sig_info_to_task that was built for force_sig_seccomp this makes the implementation trivial. This is interesting both because it makes force_sigsegv simpler and because there are a couple of buggy places in the kernel that call do_exit(SIGILL) or do_exit(SIGSYS) because there is no straight forward way today for those places to simply force the exit of a process with the chosen signal. Creating force_fatal_sig allows those places to be implemented with normal signal exits. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20211020174406.17889-13-ebiederm@xmission.com Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2021-10-15sched: Add cluster scheduler level in core and related Kconfig for ARM64Barry Song
This patch adds scheduler level for clusters and automatically enables the load balance among clusters. It will directly benefit a lot of workload which loves more resources such as memory bandwidth, caches. Testing has widely been done in two different hardware configurations of Kunpeng920: 24 cores in one NUMA(6 clusters in each NUMA node); 32 cores in one NUMA(8 clusters in each NUMA node) Workload is running on either one NUMA node or four NUMA nodes, thus, this can estimate the effect of cluster spreading w/ and w/o NUMA load balance. * Stream benchmark: 4threads stream (on 1NUMA * 24cores = 24cores) stream stream w/o patch w/ patch MB/sec copy 29929.64 ( 0.00%) 32932.68 ( 10.03%) MB/sec scale 29861.10 ( 0.00%) 32710.58 ( 9.54%) MB/sec add 27034.42 ( 0.00%) 32400.68 ( 19.85%) MB/sec triad 27225.26 ( 0.00%) 31965.36 ( 17.41%) 6threads stream (on 1NUMA * 24cores = 24cores) stream stream w/o patch w/ patch MB/sec copy 40330.24 ( 0.00%) 42377.68 ( 5.08%) MB/sec scale 40196.42 ( 0.00%) 42197.90 ( 4.98%) MB/sec add 37427.00 ( 0.00%) 41960.78 ( 12.11%) MB/sec triad 37841.36 ( 0.00%) 42513.64 ( 12.35%) 12threads stream (on 1NUMA * 24cores = 24cores) stream stream w/o patch w/ patch MB/sec copy 52639.82 ( 0.00%) 53818.04 ( 2.24%) MB/sec scale 52350.30 ( 0.00%) 53253.38 ( 1.73%) MB/sec add 53607.68 ( 0.00%) 55198.82 ( 2.97%) MB/sec triad 54776.66 ( 0.00%) 56360.40 ( 2.89%) Thus, it could help memory-bound workload especially under medium load.

2021-10-08coredump: Limit coredumps to a single thread groupEric W. Biederman
Today when a signal is delivered with a handler of SIG_DFL whose default behavior is to generate a core dump not only that process but every process that shares the mm is killed. In the case of vfork this looks like a real world problem. Consider the following well defined sequence. if (vfork() == 0) { execve(...); _exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } If a signal that generates a core dump is received after vfork but before the execve changes the mm the process that called vfork will also be killed (as the mm is shared). Similarly if the execve fails after the point of no return the kernel delivers SIGSEGV which will kill both the exec'ing process and because the mm is shared the process that called vfork as well. As far as I can tell this behavior is a violation of people's reasonable expectations, POSIX, and is unnecessarily fragile when the system is low on memory. Solve this by making a userspace visible change to only kill a single process/thread group. This is possible because Jann Horn recently modified[1] the coredump code so that the mm can safely be modified while the coredump is happening. With LinuxThreads long gone I don't expect anyone to have a notice this behavior change in practice. To accomplish this move the core_state pointer from mm_struct to signal_struct, which allows different thread groups to coredump simultatenously. In zap_threads remove the work to kill anything except for the current thread group. v2: Remove core_state from the VM_BUG_ON_MM print to fix compile failure when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled.

This counter tracks the number of watches a user has, to compare against the 'max_user_watches' limit. This causes a scalability bottleneck on SPECjbb2015 on large systems as there is only one user. Changing to a per-cpu counter increases throughput of the benchmark by about 30% on a 16-socket, > 1000 thread system.

2021-09-03memcg: replace in_interrupt() by !in_task() in active_memcg()Vasily Averin
set_active_memcg() uses in_interrupt() check to select proper storage for cgroup: pointer on task struct or per-cpu pointer. It isn't fully correct: obsoleted in_interrupt() includes tasks with disabled BH. It's better to use '!in_task()' instead.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace Pull exit cleanups from Eric Biederman: "In preparation of doing something about PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT I have started cleaning up various pieces of code related to do_exit. Most of that code I did not manage to get tested and reviewed before the merge window opened but a handful of very useful cleanups are ready to be merged. The first change is simply the removal of the bdflush system call. The code has now been disabled long enough that even the oldest userspace working userspace setups anyone can find to test are fine with the bdflush system call being removed. Changing m68k fsp040_die to use force_sigsegv(SIGSEGV) instead of calling do_exit directly is interesting only in that it is nearly the most difficult of the incorrect uses of do_exit to remove. The change to the seccomp code to simply send a signal instead of calling do_coredump directly is a very nice little cleanup made possible by realizing the existing signal sending helpers were missing a little bit of functionality that is easy to provide" * 'exit-cleanups-for-v5.15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: signal/seccomp: Dump core when there is only one live thread signal/seccomp: Refactor seccomp signal and coredump generation signal/m68k: Use force_sigsegv(SIGSEGV) in fpsp040_die exit/bdflush: Remove the deprecated bdflush system call
