* Change mincore() to count "mapped" pages rather than "cached" pagesLinus Torvalds2019-01-061-81/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The semantics of what "in core" means for the mincore() system call are somewhat unclear, but Linux has always (since 2.3.52, which is when mincore() was initially done) treated it as "page is available in page cache" rather than "page is mapped in the mapping". The problem with that traditional semantic is that it exposes a lot of system cache state that it really probably shouldn't, and that users shouldn't really even care about. So let's try to avoid that information leak by simply changing the semantics to be that mincore() counts actual mapped pages, not pages that might be cheaply mapped if they were faulted (note the "might be" part of the old semantics: being in the cache doesn't actually guarantee that you can access them without IO anyway, since things like network filesystems may have to revalidate the cache before use). In many ways the old semantics were somewhat insane even aside from the information leak issue. From the very beginning (and that beginning is a long time ago: 2.3.52 was released in March 2000, I think), the code had a comment saying Later we can get more picky about what "in core" means precisely. and this is that "later". Admittedly it is much later than is really comfortable. NOTE! This is a real semantic change, and it is for example known to change the output of "fincore", since that program literally does a mmmap without populating it, and then doing "mincore()" on that mapping that doesn't actually have any pages in it. I'm hoping that nobody actually has any workflow that cares, and the info leak is real. We may have to do something different if it turns out that people have valid reasons to want the old semantics, and if we can limit the information leak sanely.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | swap_readpage() wants to do polling to bring in pages if asked to, but it doesn't mark the bio as being polled. Additionally, the looping around the blk_poll() check isn't correct - if we get a zero return, we should call io_schedule(), we can't just assume that the bio has completed. The regular bio->bi_private check should be used for that.

| * mm: speed up mremap by 20x on large regionsJoel Fernandes (Google)2019-01-041-0/+64
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Android needs to mremap large regions of memory during memory management related operations. The mremap system call can be really slow if THP is not enabled. The bottleneck is move_page_tables, which is copying each pte at a time, and can be really slow across a large map. Turning on THP may not be a viable option, and is not for us. This patch speeds up the performance for non-THP system by copying at the PMD level when possible. The speedup is an order of magnitude on x86 (~20x). On a 1GB mremap, the mremap completion times drops from 3.4-3.6 milliseconds to 144-160 microseconds. Before: Total mremap time for 1GB data: 3521942 nanoseconds. Total mremap time for 1GB data: 3449229 nanoseconds. Total mremap time for 1GB data: 3488230 nanoseconds. After: Total mremap time for 1GB data: 150279 nanoseconds. Total mremap time for 1GB data: 144665 nanoseconds. Total mremap time for 1GB data: 158708 nanoseconds. If THP is enabled the optimization is mostly skipped except in certain situations.

This series speeds up the mremap(2) syscall by copying page tables at the PMD level even for non-THP systems. There is concern that the extra 'address' argument that mremap passes to pte_alloc may do something subtle architecture related in the future that may make the scheme not work. Also we find that there is no point in passing the 'address' to pte_alloc since its unused. This patch therefore removes this argument tree-wide resulting in a nice negative diff as well. Also ensuring along the way that the enabled architectures do not do anything funky with the 'address' argument that goes unnoticed by the optimization. Build and boot tested on x86-64. Build tested on arm64. The config enablement patch for arm64 will be posted in the future after more testing. The changes were obtained by applying the following Coccinelle script.

* | Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() functionLinus Torvalds2019-01-032-6/+4
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand. It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact. A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's just get this done once and for all. This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form. There were a couple of notable cases: - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias. - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing really used it) - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch. I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
* block: don't use un-ordered __set_current_state(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE)Linus Torvalds2019-01-021-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This mostly reverts commit 849a370016a5 ("block: avoid ordered task state change for polled IO"). It was wrongly claiming that the ordering wasn't necessary. The memory barrier _is_ necessary. If something is truly polling and not going to sleep, it's the whole state setting that is unnecessary, not the memory barrier. Whenever you set your state to a sleeping state, you absolutely need the memory barrier. Note that sometimes the memory barrier can be elsewhere. For example, the ordering might be provided by an external lock, or by setting the process state to sleeping before adding yourself to the wait queue list that is used for waking up (where the wait queue lock itself will guarantee that any wakeup will correctly see the sleeping state). But none of those cases were true here. NOTE! Some of the polling paths may indeed be able to drop the state setting entirely, at which point the memory barrier also goes away. (Also note that this doesn't revert the TASK_RUNNING cases: there is no race between a wakeup and setting the process state to TASK_RUNNING, since the end result doesn't depend on ordering).

So during swapin, a new copy of the page need to be generated if a different anon_vma is needed, please refer to comments of ksm_might_need_to_copy() for details. During swapoff, unuse_vma() uses anon_vma (if available) to locate VMA and virtual address mapped to the page, so not all mappings to a swapped out KSM page could be found. So in try_to_unuse(), even if the swap count of a swap entry isn't zero, the page needs to be deleted from swap cache, so that, in the next round a new page could be allocated and swapin for the other mappings of the swapped out KSM page. But this contradicts with the THP swap support. Where the THP could be deleted from swap cache only after the swap count of every swap entry in the huge swap cluster backing the THP has reach 0. So try_to_unuse() is changed in commit e07098294adf ("mm, THP, swap: support to reclaim swap space for THP swapped out") to check that before delete a page from swap cache, but this has broken KSM swapoff too. Fortunately, KSM is for the normal pages only, so the original behavior for KSM pages could be restored easily via checking PageTransCompound(). That is how this patch works. The bug is introduced by e07098294adf ("mm, THP, swap: support to reclaim swap space for THP swapped out"), which is merged by v4.14-rc1. So I think we should backport the fix to from 4.14 on. But Hugh thinks it may be rare for the KSM pages being in the swap device when swapoff, so nobody reports the bug so far.

| * | | hugetlbfs: Use i_mmap_rwsem to fix page fault/truncate raceMike Kravetz2018-12-281-11/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | hugetlbfs page faults can race with truncate and hole punch operations. Current code in the page fault path attempts to handle this by 'backing out' operations if we encounter the race. One obvious omission in the current code is removing a page newly added to the page cache. This is pretty straight forward to address, but there is a more subtle and difficult issue of backing out hugetlb reservations. To handle this correctly, the 'reservation state' before page allocation needs to be noted so that it can be properly backed out. There are four distinct possibilities for reservation state: shared/reserved, shared/no-resv, private/reserved and private/no-resv. Backing out a reservation may require memory allocation which could fail so that needs to be taken into account as well. Instead of writing the required complicated code for this rare occurrence, just eliminate the race. i_mmap_rwsem is now held in read mode for the duration of page fault processing. Hold i_mmap_rwsem longer in truncation and hold punch code to cover the call to remove_inode_hugepages. With this modification, code in remove_inode_hugepages checking for races becomes 'dead' as it can not longer happen. Remove the dead code and expand comments to explain reasoning. Similarly, checks for races with truncation in the page fault path can be simplified and removed.

Consider the following: A task takes a page fault on a shared hugetlbfs file and calls huge_pte_alloc to get a ptep. Suppose the returned ptep points to a shared pmd. Now, another task truncates the hugetlbfs file. As part of truncation, it unmaps everyone who has the file mapped. If the range being truncated is covered by a shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will be called. For all but the last user of the shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will clear the pud pointing to the pmd. If the task in the middle of the page fault is not the last user, the ptep returned by huge_pte_alloc now points to another task's page table or worse. This leads to bad things such as incorrect page map/reference counts or invalid memory references. To fix, expand the use of i_mmap_rwsem as follows: - i_mmap_rwsem is held in read mode whenever huge_pmd_share is called. huge_pmd_share is only called via huge_pte_alloc, so callers of huge_pte_alloc take i_mmap_rwsem before calling. In addition, callers of huge_pte_alloc continue to hold the semaphore until finished with the ptep. - i_mmap_rwsem is held in write mode whenever huge_pmd_unshare is called.

Likewise, we can now use a kprobe to override the return value of should_fail_alloc_page() and inject allocation failures into alloc_page*(). This will allow injecting allocation failures using the BCC tools even without building kernel with CONFIG_FAIL_PAGE_ALLOC and booting it with a fail_page_alloc= parameter, which incurs some overhead even when failures are not being injected. On the other hand, this patch adds an unconditional call to should_fail_alloc_page() from page allocation hotpath. That overhead should be rather negligible with CONFIG_FAIL_PAGE_ALLOC=n when there's no kprobe attached, though.

This patchset deals with page migration stalls that were reported by our customer due to a block device page that had a bufferhead that was in the bh LRU cache. The patchset modifies the page migration code so that bufferheads are completely handled inside buffer_migrate_page() and then provides a new migration helper for pages with buffer heads that is safe to use even for block device pages and that also deals with bh lrus.

The current implementation doesn't match the description though. It will drain all pcp pages for all zones that happen to have cached pages on the same cpu as the given zone. This will lead to premature pcp cache draining for zones that are not of any interest to the caller - e.g. compaction, hwpoison or memory offline. This forces the page allocator to take locks and potential lock contention as a result. There is no real reason for this sub-optimal implementation. Replace per-cpu work item with a dedicated structure which contains a pointer to the zone and pass it over to the worker. This will get the zone information all the way down to the worker function and do the right job.

Below were the reported init times on a 8-socket 96-core 4TB IvyBridge system. 1) Non-debug kernel without CONFIG_KASAN [ 8.764222] node 1 initialised, 132086516 pages in 7027ms 2) Debug kernel with CONFIG_KASAN [ 146.288115] node 1 initialised, 132075466 pages in 143052ms So the page init time in a debug kernel was 20X of the non-debug kernel. The long init time can be problematic as the page initialization is done with interrupt disabled. In this particular case, it caused the appearance of following warning messages as well as NMI backtraces of all the cores that were doing the initialization.

On a 4TB system, we are talking about almost 500GB of memory probably on the same node. In reality, we may not need to poison the newly initialized pages before they are ever allocated. So KASAN poisoning of freed pages before the completion of deferred memory initialization is now disabled. Those pages will be properly poisoned when they are allocated or freed after deferred pages initialization is done. With this change, the new page initialization time became: [ 21.948010] node 1 initialised, 132075466 pages in 18702ms This was still about double the non-debug kernel time, but was much better than before.

This is currently obfuscated by goto retry loop. The code is hard to follow and as a result it is even suboptimal becase each retry round scans the full range from start_pfn even though we have successfully scanned/migrated [start_pfn, pfn] range already. This is all only because check_pages_isolated failure has to rescan the full range again. De-obfuscate the migration retry loop by promoting it to a real for loop. In fact remove the goto altogether by making it a proper double loop (yeah, gotos are nasty in this specific case). In the end we will get a slightly more optimal code which is better readable.

I have been chasing memory offlining not making progress recently. On the way I have noticed few weird decisions in the code. The migration itself is restricted without a reasonable justification and the retry loop around the migration is quite messy. This is addressed by patch 1 and patch 2. Patch 3 is targeting on the faultaround code which has been a hot candidate for the initial issue reported upstream [2] and that I am debugging internally. It turned out to be not the main contributor in the end but I believe we should address it regardless. See the patch description for more details. [1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181120134323.13007-1-mhocko@kernel.org [2] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20181114070909.GB2653@MiWiFi-R3L-srv This patch (of 3): do_migrate_range has been limiting the number of pages to migrate to 256 for some reason which is not documented. Even if the limit made some sense back then when it was introduced it doesn't really serve a good purpose these days. If the range contains huge pages then we break out of the loop too early and go through LRU and pcp caches draining and scan_movable_pages is quite suboptimal. The only reason to limit the number of pages I can think of is to reduce the potential time to react on the fatal signal. But even then the number of pages is a questionable metric because even a single page migration might block in a non-killable state (e.g. __unmap_and_move). Remove the limit and offline the full requested range (this is one memblock worth of pages with the current code). Should we ever get a report that offlining takes too long to react on fatal signal then we should rather fix the core migration to use killable waits and bailout on a signal.

There are usecases that would like to know that http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.21.1809251248450.50347@chino.kir.corp.google.com : This is used to identify heap mappings that should be able to fault thp : but do not, and they normally point to a low-on-memory or fragmentation : issue. The only way to deduce this now is to query for hg resp. nh flags and confronting the state with the global setting. Except that there is also PR_SET_THP_DISABLE that might change the picture. So the final logic is not trivial. Moreover the eligibility of the vma depends on the type of VMA as well. In the past we have supported only anononymous memory VMAs but things have changed and shmem based vmas are supported as well these days and the query logic gets even more complicated because the eligibility depends on the mount option and another global configuration knob. Simplify the current state and report the THP eligibility in /proc/<pid>/smaps for each existing vma. Reuse transparent_hugepage_enabled for this purpose. The original implementation of this function assumes that the caller knows that the vma itself is supported for THP so make the core checks into __transparent_hugepage_enabled and use it for existing callers. __show_smap just use the new transparent_hugepage_enabled which also checks the vma support status (please note that this one has to be out of line due to include dependency issues).

This patchset adds contextual information, why an invalidation is happening, to mmu notifier callback. This is necessary for user of mmu notifier that wish to maintains their own data structure without having to add new fields to struct vm_area_struct (vma). For instance device can have they own page table that mirror the process address space. When a vma is unmap (munmap() syscall) the device driver can free the device page table for the range. Today we do not have any information on why a mmu notifier call back is happening and thus device driver have to assume that it is always an munmap(). This is inefficient at it means that it needs to re-allocate device page table on next page fault and rebuild the whole device driver data structure for the range. Other use case beside munmap() also exist, for instance it is pointless for device driver to invalidate the device page table when the invalidation is for the soft dirtyness tracking. Or device driver can optimize away mprotect() that change the page table permission access for the range. This patchset enables all this optimizations for device drivers. I do not include any of those in this series but another patchset I am posting will leverage this. The patchset is pretty simple from a code point of view. The first two patches consolidate all mmu notifier arguments into a struct so that it is easier to add/change arguments. The last patch adds the contextual information (munmap, protection, soft dirty, clear, ...). This patch (of 3): To avoid having to change many callback definition everytime we want to add a parameter use a structure to group all parameters for the mmu_notifier invalidate_range_start/end callback.

The underlying reason was that the HWPoison page has an elevated reference count and the migration keeps failing. There are two problems with that. First of all it is dubious to migrate the poisoned page because we know that accessing that memory is possible to fail. Secondly it doesn't make any sense to migrate a potentially broken content and preserve the memory corruption over to a new location. Oscar has found out that 4.4 and the current upstream kernels behave slightly differently with his simply testcase === int main(void) { int ret; int i; int fd; char *array = malloc(4096); char *array_locked = malloc(4096); fd = open("/tmp/data", O_RDONLY); read(fd, array, 4095); for (i = 0; i < 4096; i++) array_locked[i] = 'd'; ret = mlock((void *)PAGE_ALIGN((unsigned long)array_locked), sizeof(array_locked)); if (ret) perror("mlock"); sleep (20); ret = madvise((void *)PAGE_ALIGN((unsigned long)array_locked), 4096, MADV_HWPOISON); if (ret) perror("madvise"); for (i = 0; i < 4096; i++) array_locked[i] = 'd'; return 0; } === + offline this memory. In 4.4 kernels he saw the hwpoisoned page to be returned back to the LRU list kernel: [<ffffffff81019ac9>] dump_trace+0x59/0x340 kernel: [<ffffffff81019e9a>] show_stack_log_lvl+0xea/0x170 kernel: [<ffffffff8101ac71>] show_stack+0x21/0x40 kernel: [<ffffffff8132bb90>] dump_stack+0x5c/0x7c kernel: [<ffffffff810815a1>] warn_slowpath_common+0x81/0xb0 kernel: [<ffffffff811a275c>] __pagevec_lru_add_fn+0x14c/0x160 kernel: [<ffffffff811a2eed>] pagevec_lru_move_fn+0xad/0x100 kernel: [<ffffffff811a334c>] __lru_cache_add+0x6c/0xb0 kernel: [<ffffffff81195236>] add_to_page_cache_lru+0x46/0x70 kernel: [<ffffffffa02b4373>] extent_readpages+0xc3/0x1a0 [btrfs] kernel: [<ffffffff811a16d7>] __do_page_cache_readahead+0x177/0x200 kernel: [<ffffffff811a18c8>] ondemand_readahead+0x168/0x2a0 kernel: [<ffffffff8119673f>] generic_file_read_iter+0x41f/0x660 kernel: [<ffffffff8120e50d>] __vfs_read+0xcd/0x140 kernel: [<ffffffff8120e9ea>] vfs_read+0x7a/0x120 kernel: [<ffffffff8121404b>] kernel_read+0x3b/0x50 kernel: [<ffffffff81215c80>] do_execveat_common.isra.29+0x490/0x6f0 kernel: [<ffffffff81215f08>] do_execve+0x28/0x30 kernel: [<ffffffff81095ddb>] call_usermodehelper_exec_async+0xfb/0x130 kernel: [<ffffffff8161c045>] ret_from_fork+0x55/0x80 And that latter confuses the hotremove path because an LRU page is attempted to be migrated and that fails due to an elevated reference count. It is quite possible that the reuse of the HWPoisoned page is some kind of fixed race condition but I am not really sure about that. With the upstream kernel the failure is slightly different. The page doesn't seem to have LRU bit set but isolate_movable_page simply fails and do_migrate_range simply puts all the isolated pages back to LRU and therefore no progress is made and scan_movable_pages finds same set of pages over and over again. Fix both cases by explicitly checking HWPoisoned pages before we even try to get reference on the page, try to unmap it if it is still mapped. As explained by Naoya: : Hwpoison code never unmapped those for no big reason because : Ksm pages never dominate memory, so we simply didn't have strong : motivation to save the pages. Also put WARN_ON(PageLRU) in case there is a race and we can hit LRU HWPoison pages which shouldn't happen but I couldn't convince myself about that. Naoya has noted the following: : Theoretically no such gurantee, because try_to_unmap() doesn't have a : guarantee of success and then memory_failure() returns immediately : when hwpoison_user_mappings fails. : Or the following code (comes after hwpoison_user_mappings block) also impli= : es : that the target page can still have PageLRU flag. : : /* : * Torn down by someone else? : */ : if (PageLRU(p) && !PageSwapCache(p) && p->mapping =3D=3D NULL) { : action_result(pfn, MF_MSG_TRUNCATED_LRU, MF_IGNORED); : res =3D -EBUSY; : goto out; : } : : So I think it's OK to keep "if (WARN_ON(PageLRU(page)))" block in : current version of your patch.

We can do better and use pfn_to_online_page(), so in case we have CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG, offlined pages will be skiped automatically. For boxes where CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG is not present, pfn_to_online_page() will fallback to pfn_valid(). Another little optimization is to check if the page belongs to the node we are currently checking, so in case we have nodes interleaved we will not check the same pfn multiple times.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | write_cache_pages() is used in both background and integrity writeback scenarios by various filesystems. Background writeback is mostly concerned with cleaning a certain number of dirty pages based on various mm heuristics. It may not write the full set of dirty pages or wait for I/O to complete. Integrity writeback is responsible for persisting a set of dirty pages before the writeback job completes. For example, an fsync() call must perform integrity writeback to ensure data is on disk before the call returns. write_cache_pages() unconditionally breaks out of its processing loop in the event of a ->writepage() error. This is fine for background writeback, which had no strict requirements and will eventually come around again. This can cause problems for integrity writeback on filesystems that might need to clean up state associated with failed page writeouts. For example, XFS performs internal delayed allocation accounting before returning a ->writepage() error, where applicable. If the current writeback happens to be associated with an unmount and write_cache_pages() completes the writeback prematurely due to error, the filesystem is unmounted in an inconsistent state if dirty+delalloc pages still exist. To handle this problem, update write_cache_pages() to always process the full set of pages for integrity writeback regardless of ->writepage() errors. Save the first encountered error and return it to the caller once complete. This facilitates XFS (or any other fs that expects integrity writeback to process the entire set of dirty pages) to clean up its internal state completely in the event of persistent mapping errors. Background writeback continues to exit on the first error encountered.

| * | | mm, hotplug: move init_currently_empty_zone() under zone_span_lock protectionWei Yang2018-12-281-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During online_pages phase, pgdat->nr_zones will be updated in case this zone is empty. Currently the online_pages phase is protected by the global locks (device_device_hotplug_lock and mem_hotplug_lock), which ensures there is no contention during the update of nr_zones. These global locks introduces scalability issues (especially the second one), which slow down code relying on get_online_mems(). This is also a preparation for not having to rely on get_online_mems() but instead some more fine grained locks. The patch moves init_currently_empty_zone under both zone_span_writelock and pgdat_resize_lock because both the pgdat state is changed (nr_zones) and the zone's start_pfn. Also this patch changes the documentation of node_size_lock to include the protection of nr_zones.

This looks not proper. These code paths are currently protected by mem_hotplug_lock currently but should there ever be any reason for locking at the sparse layer a dedicated lock should be introduced. Following is the current call trace of sparse_add/remove_one_section() mem_hotplug_begin() arch_add_memory() add_pages() __add_pages() __add_section() sparse_add_one_section() mem_hotplug_done() mem_hotplug_begin() arch_remove_memory() __remove_pages() __remove_section() sparse_remove_one_section() mem_hotplug_done() The comment above the pgdat_resize_lock also mentions "Holding this will also guarantee that any pfn_valid() stays that way.", which is true with the current implementation and false after this patch. But current implementation doesn't meet this comment. There isn't any pfn walkers to take the lock so this looks like a relict from the past. This patch also removes this comment.

After calling start_kernel()->setup_arch()->kasan_init(), kmemleak early log buffer went from something like 280 to 260000 which caused kmemleak disabled and crash dump memory reservation failed. The multitude of kmemleak_alloc() calls is from nested loops while KASAN is setting up full memory mappings, so let early kmemleak allocations skip those memblock_alloc_internal() calls came from kasan_init() given that those early KASAN memory mappings should not reference to other memory.

This patchset aims for two things: 1) A better definition about offline and hot-remove stage 2) Solving bugs where we can access non-initialized pages during hot-remove operations [2] [3]. This is achieved by moving all page/zone handling to the offline stage, so we do not need to access pages when hot-removing memory.

| * | | mm: check nr_initialised with PAGES_PER_SECTION directly in defer_init()Wei Yang2018-12-281-7/+6

But this is not necessary, since defer_init() is called like this: memmap_init_zone() for pfn in [start_pfn, end_pfn) defer_init(pfn, end_pfn) In case (pgdat->node_spanned_pages < PAGES_PER_SECTION), the loop would stop before calling defer_init(). BTW, comparing PAGES_PER_SECTION with node_spanned_pages is not correct, since nr_initialised is zone based instead of node based. Even node_spanned_pages is bigger than PAGES_PER_SECTION, its highest zone would have pages less than PAGES_PER_SECTION.

And that failure is retried nine times, amplifying the pain when trying to migrate a popular page. With a single persistent faulter, migration sometimes succeeds; with two or three concurrent faulters, success becomes much less likely (and the more the page was mapped, the worse the overhead of unmapping and remapping it on each try). This is especially a problem for memory offlining, where the outer level retries forever (or until terminated from userspace), because a heavy refault workload can trigger an endless loop of migration failures. wait_on_page_locked() is the wrong tool for the job. David Herrmann (but was he the first?) noticed this issue in 2014: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=140110465608116&w=2 Tim Chen started a thread in August 2017 which appears relevant: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150275941014915&w=2 where Kan Liang went on to implicate __migration_entry_wait(): https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150300268411980&w=2 and the thread ended up with the v4.14 commits: 2554db916586 ("sched/wait: Break up long wake list walk") 11a19c7b099f ("sched/wait: Introduce wakeup boomark in wake_up_page_bit") Baoquan He reported "Memory hotplug softlock issue" 14 November 2018: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=154217936431300&w=2 We have all assumed that it is essential to hold a page reference while waiting on a page lock: partly to guarantee that there is still a struct page when MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is configured, but also to protect against reuse of the struct page going to someone who then holds the page locked indefinitely, when the waiter can reasonably expect timely unlocking. But in fact, so long as wait_on_page_bit_common() does the put_page(), and is careful not to rely on struct page contents thereafter, there is no need to hold a reference to the page while waiting on it. That does mean that this case cannot go back through the loop: but that's fine for the page migration case, and even if used more widely, is limited by the "Stop walking if it's locked" optimization in wake_page_function(). Add interface put_and_wait_on_page_locked() to do this, using "behavior" enum in place of "lock" arg to wait_on_page_bit_common() to implement it. No interruptible or killable variant needed yet, but they might follow: I have a vague notion that reporting -EINTR should take precedence over return from wait_on_page_bit_common() without knowing the page state, so arrange it accordingly - but that may be nothing but pedantic. __migration_entry_wait() still has to take a brief reference to the page, prior to calling put_and_wait_on_page_locked(): but now that it is dropped before waiting, the chance of impeding page migration is very much reduced. Should we perhaps disable preemption across this? shrink_page_list()'s __ClearPageLocked(): that was a surprise! This survived a lot of testing before that showed up. PageWaiters may have been set by wait_on_page_bit_common(), and the reference dropped, just before shrink_page_list() succeeds in freezing its last page reference: in such a case, unlock_page() must be used. Follow the suggestion from Michal Hocko, just revert a978d6f52106 ("mm: unlockless reclaim") now: that optimization predates PageWaiters, and won't buy much these days; but we can reinstate it for the !PageWaiters case if anyone notices. It does raise the question: should vmscan.c's is_page_cache_freeable() and __remove_mapping() now treat a PageWaiters page as if an extra reference were held? Perhaps, but I don't think it matters much, since shrink_page_list() already had to win its trylock_page(), so waiters are not very common there: I noticed no difference when trying the bigger change, and it's surely not needed while put_and_wait_on_page_locked() is only used for page migration.
