* 'pm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/suspend-2.6:
PM / Hibernate: Fix memory corruption related to swap
PM / Hibernate: Use async I/O when reading compressed hibernation image
|
|
There is a problem that swap pages allocated before the creation of
a hibernation image can be released and used for storing the contents
of different memory pages while the image is being saved. Since the
kernel stored in the image doesn't know of that, it causes memory
corruption to occur after resume from hibernation, especially on
systems with relatively small RAM that need to swap often.
This issue can be addressed by keeping the GFP_IOFS bits clear
in gfp_allowed_mask during the entire hibernation, including the
saving of the image, until the system is finally turned off or
the hibernation is aborted. Unfortunately, for this purpose
it's necessary to rework the way in which the hibernate and
suspend code manipulates gfp_allowed_mask.
This change is based on an earlier patch from Hugh Dickins.

Presently hwpoison is using lock_system_sleep() to prevent a race with
memory hotplug. However lock_system_sleep() is a no-op if

On stock 2.6.37-rc4, running:
# mount lilith:/export /mnt/lilith
# find /mnt/lilith/ -type f -print0 | xargs -0 file
crashes the machine fairly quickly under Xen. Often it results in oops
messages, but the couple of times I tried just now, it just hung quietly
and made Xen print some rude messages:
(XEN) mm.c:2389:d80 Bad type (saw 7400000000000001 != exp
3000000000000000) for mfn 1d7058 (pfn 18fa7)
(XEN) mm.c:964:d80 Attempt to create linear p.t. with write perms
(XEN) mm.c:2389:d80 Bad type (saw 7400000000000010 != exp
1000000000000000) for mfn 1d2e04 (pfn 1d1fb)
(XEN) mm.c:2965:d80 Error while pinning mfn 1d2e04
Which means the domain tried to map a pagetable page RW, which would
allow it to map arbitrary memory, so Xen stopped it. This is because
vm_unmap_ram() left some pages mapped in the vmalloc area after NFS had
finished with them, and those pages got recycled as pagetable pages
while still having these RW aliases.
Removing those mappings immediately removes the Xen-visible aliases, and
so it has no problem with those pages being reused as pagetable pages.
Deferring the TLB flush doesn't upset Xen because it can flush the TLB
itself as needed to maintain its invariants.
When unmapping a region in the vmalloc space, clear the ptes
immediately. There's no point in deferring this because there's no
amortization benefit.
The TLBs are left dirty, and they are flushed lazily to amortize the
cost of the IPIs.
This specific motivation for this patch is an oops-causing regression
since 2.6.36 when using NFS under Xen, triggered by the NFS client's use
of vm_map_ram() introduced in 56e4ebf877b60 ("NFS: readdir with vmapped
pages") . XFS also uses vm_map_ram() and could cause similar problems.

Have hugetlb_fault() call unlock_page(page) only if it had previously
called lock_page(page).
Setting CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y and then running the libhugetlbfs test suite,
resulted in the tripping of VM_BUG_ON(!PageLocked(page)) in
unlock_page() having been called by hugetlb_fault() when page ==
pagecache_page. This patch remedied the problem.

Commit d33b9f45 ("mm: hugetlb: fix hugepage memory leak in
walk_page_range()") introduces a check if a vma is a hugetlbfs one and
later in 5dc37642 ("mm hugetlb: add hugepage support to pagemap") it is
moved under #ifdef CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE but a needless find_vma call is
left behind and its result is not used anywhere else in the function.
The side-effect of caching vma for @addr inside walk->mm is neither
utilized in walk_page_range() nor in called functions.

called under stop_machine_run()
During memory hotplug, build_allzonelists() may be called under
stop_machine_run(). In this function, setup_zone_pageset() is called.
But it's bug because it will do page allocation under stop_machine_run().
Here is a report from Alok Kataria.

This patch tries to fix the issue by moving setup_zone_pageset() out from

stop_machine_run().

Swap accounting can be configured by CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP
configuration option and then it is turned on by default. There is a boot
option (noswapaccount) which can disable this feature.
This makes it hard for distributors to enable the configuration option as
this feature leads to a bigger memory consumption and this is a no-go for
general purpose distribution kernel. On the other hand swap accounting
may be very usuful for some workloads.
This patch adds a new configuration option which controls the default
behavior (CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP_ENABLED). If the option is selected
then the feature is turned on by default.
It also adds a new boot parameter swapaccount[=1|0] which enhances the
original noswapaccount parameter semantic by means of enable/disable logic
(defaults to 1 if no value is provided to be still consistent with
noswapaccount).
The default behavior is unchanged (if CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP is
enabled then CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP_ENABLED is enabled as well)

__mem_cgroup_try_charge() can be called under down_write(&mmap_sem)(e.g.
mlock does it). This means it can cause deadlock if it races with move charge:
Ex.1)
move charge | try charge
--------------------------------------+------------------------------
mem_cgroup_can_attach() | down_write(&mmap_sem)
mc.moving_task = current | ..
mem_cgroup_precharge_mc() | __mem_cgroup_try_charge()
mem_cgroup_count_precharge() | prepare_to_wait()
down_read(&mmap_sem) | if (mc.moving_task)
-> cannot aquire the lock | -> true
| schedule()
Ex.2)
move charge | try charge
--------------------------------------+------------------------------
mem_cgroup_can_attach() |
mc.moving_task = current |
mem_cgroup_precharge_mc() |
mem_cgroup_count_precharge() |
down_read(&mmap_sem) |
.. |
up_read(&mmap_sem) |
| down_write(&mmap_sem)
mem_cgroup_move_task() | ..
mem_cgroup_move_charge() | __mem_cgroup_try_charge()
down_read(&mmap_sem) | prepare_to_wait()
-> cannot aquire the lock | if (mc.moving_task)
| -> true
| schedule()
To avoid this deadlock, we do all the move charge works (both can_attach() and
attach()) under one mmap_sem section.
And after this patch, we set/clear mc.moving_task outside mc.lock, because we
use the lock only to check mc.from/to.

lock_page_cgroup and unlock_page_cgroup are implemented using
bit_spinlock. bit_spinlock doesn't touch the bit if we are on non-SMP
machine, so we can't use the bit to check whether the lock was taken.
Let's introduce is_page_cgroup_locked based on bit_spin_is_locked instead
of PageCgroupLocked to fix it.

Salman Qazi describes the following radix-tree bug:
In the following case, we get can get a deadlock:
0. The radix tree contains two items, one has the index 0.
1. The reader (in this case find_get_pages) takes the rcu_read_lock.
2. The reader acquires slot(s) for item(s) including the index 0 item.
3. The non-zero index item is deleted, and as a consequence the other item is
moved to the root of the tree. The place where it used to be is queued for
deletion after the readers finish.
3b. The zero item is deleted, removing it from the direct slot, it remains in
the rcu-delayed indirect node.
4. The reader looks at the index 0 slot, and finds that the page has 0 ref
count
5. The reader looks at it again, hoping that the item will either be freed or
the ref count will increase. This never happens, as the slot it is looking
at will never be updated. Also, this slot can never be reclaimed because
the reader is holding rcu_read_lock and is in an infinite loop.
The fix is to re-use the same "indirect" pointer case that requires a slot
lookup retry into a general "retry the lookup" bit.

nr_dirty and nr_congested are increased only when the page is dirty. So
if all pages are clean, both them will be zero. In this case, we should
not mark the zone congested.

70 hours into some stress tests of a 2.6.32-based enterprise kernel, we
ran into a NULL dereference in here:
int block_is_partially_uptodate(struct page *page, read_descriptor_t *desc,
unsigned long from)
{
----> struct inode *inode = page->mapping->host;
It looks like page->mapping was the culprit. (xmon trace is below).
After closer examination, I realized that do_generic_file_read() does a
find_get_page(), and eventually locks the page before calling
block_is_partially_uptodate(). However, it doesn't revalidate the
page->mapping after the page is locked. So, there's a small window
between the find_get_page() and ->is_partially_uptodate() where the page
could get truncated and page->mapping cleared.
We _have_ a reference, so it can't get reclaimed, but it certainly
can be truncated.
I think the correct thing is to check page->mapping after the
trylock_page(), and jump out if it got truncated. This patch has been
running in the test environment for a month or so now, and we have not
seen this bug pop up again.

As pointed out by Linus, commit dab5855 ("perf_counter: Add mmap event hooks to
mprotect()") is fundamentally wrong as mprotect_fixup() can free 'vma' due to
merging. Fix the problem by moving perf_event_mmap() hook to
mprotect_fixup().
Note: there's another successful return path from mprotect_fixup() if old
flags equal to new flags. We don't, however, need to call
perf_event_mmap() there because 'perf' already knows the VMA is
executable.

This patch extracts the core logic from mem_cgroup_update_file_mapped() as
mem_cgroup_update_file_stat() and adds a wrapper.
As a planned future update, memory cgroup has to count dirty pages to
implement dirty_ratio/limit. And more, the number of dirty pages is
required to kick flusher thread to start writeback. (Now, no kick.)
This patch is preparation for it and makes other statistics implementation
clearer. Just a clean up.

In memory cgroup management, we sometimes have to walk through
subhierarchy of cgroup to gather informaiton, or lock something, etc.
Now, to do that, mem_cgroup_walk_tree() function is provided. It calls
given callback function per cgroup found. But the bad thing is that it
has to pass a fixed style function and argument, "void*" and it adds much
type casting to memcontrol.c.
To make the code clean, this patch replaces walk_tree() with
for_each_mem_cgroup_tree(iter, root)
An iterator style call. The good point is that iterator call doesn't have
to assume what kind of function is called under it. A bad point is that
it may cause reference-count leak if a caller use "break" from the loop by
mistake.
I think the benefit is larger. The modified code seems straigtforward and
easy to read because we don't have misterious callbacks and pointer cast.

accouting flag management
At accounting file events per memory cgroup, we need to find memory cgroup
via page_cgroup->mem_cgroup. Now, we use lock_page_cgroup() for guarantee
pc->mem_cgroup is not overwritten while we make use of it.
But, considering the context which page-cgroup for files are accessed,
we can use alternative light-weight mutual execusion in the most case.
At handling file-caches, the only race we have to take care of is "moving"
account, IOW, overwriting page_cgroup->mem_cgroup. (See comment in the
patch)
Unlike charge/uncharge, "move" happens not so frequently. It happens only when
rmdir() and task-moving (with a special settings.)
This patch adds a race-checker for file-cache-status accounting v.s. account
moving. The new per-cpu-per-memcg counter MEM_CGROUP_ON_MOVE is added.
The routine for account move
1. Increment it before start moving
2. Call synchronize_rcu()
3. Decrement it after the end of moving.
By this, file-status-counting routine can check it needs to call
lock_page_cgroup(). In most case, I doesn't need to call it.
Following is a perf data of a process which mmap()/munmap 32MB of file cache
in a minute.
Before patch:
28.25% mmap mmap [.] main
22.64% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] page_fault
9.96% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] mem_cgroup_update_file_mapped
3.67% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] filemap_fault
3.50% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] unmap_vmas
2.99% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __do_fault
2.76% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] find_get_page
After patch:
30.00% mmap mmap [.] main
23.78% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] page_fault
5.52% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] mem_cgroup_update_file_mapped

2.40% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] handle_mm_fault
2.40% mmap [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_page_fault
This patch reduces memcg's cost to some extent.
(mem_cgroup_update_file_mapped is called by both of map/unmap)
Note: It seems some more improvements are required..but no idea.
maybe removing set/unset flag is required.

Presently memory cgroup accounts file-mapped by counter and flag. counter
is working in the same way with zone_stat but FileMapped flag only exists
in memcg (for helping move_account).
This flag can be updated wrongly in a case. Assume CPU0 and CPU1 and a
thread mapping a page on CPU0, another thread unmapping it on CPU1.
CPU0 CPU1
rmv rmap (mapcount 1->0)
add rmap (mapcount 0->1)
lock_page_cgroup()
memcg counter+1 (some delay)
set MAPPED FLAG.
unlock_page_cgroup()
lock_page_cgroup()
memcg counter-1
clear MAPPED flag
In the above sequence counter is properly updated but FLAG is not. This
means that representing a state by a flag which is maintained by counter
needs some special care.
To handle this, when clearing a flag, this patch check mapcount directly
and clear the flag only when mapcount == 0. (if mapcount >0, someone will
make it to zero later and flag will be cleared.)
Reverse case, dec-after-inc cannot be a problem because page_table_lock()
works well for it. (IOW, to make above sequence, 2 processes should touch
the same page at once with map/unmap.)

__test_page_isolated_in_pageblock() returns 1 if all pages in the range
are isolated, so fix the comment. Variable `pfn' will be initialised in
the following loop so remove it.

page_order() is called by memory hotplug's user interface to check the
section is removable or not. (is_mem_section_removable())
It calls page_order() withoug holding zone->lock.
So, even if the caller does
if (PageBuddy(page))
ret = page_order(page) ...
The caller may hit BUG_ON().
For fixing this, there are 2 choices.
1. add zone->lock.
2. remove BUG_ON().
is_mem_section_removable() is used for some "advice" and doesn't need to
be 100% accurate. This is_removable() can be called via user program..
We don't want to take this important lock for long by user's request. So,
this patch removes BUG_ON().

The vma returned by find_vma does not necessarily include the target
address. If this happens the code tries to follow a page outside of any
vma and returns ENOENT instead of EFAULT.
