select_idle_siblings() is a known pain point for a number of
workloads; it either does too much or not enough and sometimes just
does plain wrong.
This rewrite attempts to address a number of issues (but sadly not
all).
The current code does an unconditional sched_domain iteration; with
the intent of finding an idle core (on SMT hardware). The problems
which this patch tries to address are:
- its pointless to look for idle cores if the machine is real busy;
at which point you're just wasting cycles.
- it's behaviour is inconsistent between SMT and !SMT hardware in
that !SMT hardware ends up doing a scan for any idle CPU in the LLC
domain, while SMT hardware does a scan for idle cores and if that
fails, falls back to a scan for idle threads on the 'target' core.
The new code replaces the sched_domain scan with 3 explicit scans:
1) search for an idle core in the LLC
2) search for an idle CPU in the LLC
3) search for an idle thread in the 'target' core
where 1 and 3 are conditional on SMT support and 1 and 2 have runtime
heuristics to skip the step.
Step 1) is conditional on sd_llc_shared->has_idle_cores; when a cpu
goes idle and sd_llc_shared->has_idle_cores is false, we scan all SMT
siblings of the CPU going idle. Similarly, we clear
sd_llc_shared->has_idle_cores when we fail to find an idle core.
Step 2) tracks the average cost of the scan and compares this to the
average idle time guestimate for the CPU doing the wakeup. There is a
significant fudge factor involved to deal with the variability of the
averages. Esp. hackbench was sensitive to this.
Step 3) is unconditional; we assume (also per step 1) that scanning
all SMT siblings in a core is 'cheap'.
With this; SMT systems gain step 2, which cures a few benchmarks --
notably one from Facebook.
One 'feature' of the sched_domain iteration, which we preserve in the
new code, is that it would start scanning from the 'target' CPU,
instead of scanning the cpumask in cpu id order. This avoids multiple
CPUs in the LLC scanning for idle to gang up and find the same CPU
quite as much. The down side is that tasks can end up hopping across
the LLC for no apparent reason.

Since struct sched_domain is strictly per cpu; introduce a structure
that is shared between all 'identical' sched_domains.
Limit to SD_SHARE_PKG_RESOURCES domains for now, as we'll only use it
for shared cache state; if another use comes up later we can easily
relax this.
While the sched_group's are normally shared between CPUs, these are
not natural to use when we need some shared state on a domain level --
since that would require the domain to have a parent, which is not a
given.

There is no point in doing a call_rcu() for each domain, only do a
callback for the root sched domain and clean up the entire set in one
go.
Also make the entire call chain be called destroy_sched_domain*() to
remove confusion with the free_sched_domains() call, which does an
entirely different thing.
Both cpu_attach_domain() callers of destroy_sched_domain() can live
without the call_rcu() because at those points the sched_domain hasn't
been published yet.

The partial initialization of wait_queue_t in prepare_to_wait_event() looks
ugly. This was done to shrink .text, but we can simply add the new helper
which does the full initialization and shrink the compiled code a bit more.
And. This way prepare_to_wait_event() can have more users. In particular we
are ready to remove the signal_pending_state() checks from wait_bit_action_f
helpers and change __wait_on_bit_lock() to use prepare_to_wait_event().

__wait_on_bit_lock() doesn't need abort_exclusive_wait() too. Right
now it can't use prepare_to_wait_event() (see the next change), but
it can do the additional finish_wait() if action() fails.
abort_exclusive_wait() no longer has callers, remove it.

___wait_event() doesn't really need abort_exclusive_wait(), we can simply
change prepare_to_wait_event() to remove the waiter from q->task_list if
it was interrupted.
This simplifies the code/logic, and this way prepare_to_wait_event() can
have more users, see the next change.

Otherwise this logic only works if mode is "compatible" with another
exclusive waiter.
If some wq has both TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE waiters,
abort_exclusive_wait() won't wait an uninterruptible waiter.
The main user is __wait_on_bit_lock() and currently it is fine but only
because TASK_KILLABLE includes TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE and we do not have
lock_page_interruptible() yet.
Just use TASK_NORMAL and remove the "mode" arg from abort_exclusive_wait().
Yes, this means that (say) wake_up_interruptible() can wake up the non-
interruptible waiter(s), but I think this is fine. And in fact I think
that abort_exclusive_wait() must die, see the next change.

Since commit:
2159197d6677 ("sched/core: Enable increased load resolution on 64-bit kernels")
we now have two different fixed point units for load:
- 'shares' in calc_cfs_shares() has 20 bit fixed point unit on 64-bit
kernels. Therefore use scale_load() on MIN_SHARES.
- 'wl' in effective_load() has 10 bit fixed point unit. Therefore use
scale_load_down() on tg->shares which has 20 bit fixed point unit on
64-bit kernels.

Current code can call set_cpu_sibling_map() and invoke sched_set_topology()
more than once (e.g. on CPU hot plug). When this happens after
sched_init_smp() has been called, we lose the NUMA topology extension to
sched_domain_topology in sched_init_numa(). This results in incorrect
topology when the sched domain is rebuilt.
This patch fixes the bug and issues warning if we call sched_set_topology()
after sched_init_smp().

9bb627be47a5 ("mem-hotplug: don't clear the only node in new_node_page()")
prevents allocating from an empty nodemask, but as David points out, it is
still wrong. As node_online_map may include memoryless nodes, only
allocating from these nodes is meaningless.
This patch uses node_states[N_MEMORY] mask to prevent the above case.

When CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG is enabled we need to preserve unmapping address
even if "unmap" is a no-op for our architecutre because we need
debug_dma_unmap_page() to correctly cleanup all of the debug bookkeeping.
Failing to do so results in a false positive warnings about previously
mapped areas never being unmapped.

The oom victim cannot terminate because it needs to take mmap_sem for
write while the lock is held by ksmd for read which loops in the page
allocator
ksm_do_scan
scan_get_next_rmap_item
down_read
get_next_rmap_item
alloc_rmap_item #ksmd will loop permanently.
There is no way forward because the oom victim cannot release any memory
in 4.1 based kernel. Since 4.6 we have the oom reaper which would solve
this problem because it would release the memory asynchronously.
Nevertheless we can relax alloc_rmap_item requirements and use
__GFP_NORETRY because the allocation failure is acceptable as ksm_do_scan
would just retry later after the lock got dropped.
Such a patch would be also easy to backport to older stable kernels which
do not have oom_reaper.
While we are at it add GFP_NOWARN so the admin doesn't have to be alarmed
by the allocation failure.

The NUMA balancing logic uses an arch-specific PROT_NONE page table flag
defined by pte_protnone() or pmd_protnone() to mark PTEs or huge page
PMDs respectively as requiring balancing upon a subsequent page fault.
User-defined PROT_NONE memory regions which also have this flag set will
not normally invoke the NUMA balancing code as do_page_fault() will send
a segfault to the process before handle_mm_fault() is even called.
However if access_remote_vm() is invoked to access a PROT_NONE region of
memory, handle_mm_fault() is called via faultin_page() and
__get_user_pages() without any access checks being performed, meaning
the NUMA balancing logic is incorrectly invoked on a non-NUMA memory
region.
A simple means of triggering this problem is to access PROT_NONE mmap'd
memory using /proc/self/mem which reliably results in the NUMA handling
functions being invoked when CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING is set.
This issue was reported in bugzilla (issue 99101) which includes some
simple repro code.
There are BUG_ON() checks in do_numa_page() and do_huge_pmd_numa_page()
added at commit c0e7cad to avoid accidentally provoking strange
behaviour by attempting to apply NUMA balancing to pages that are in
fact PROT_NONE. The BUG_ON()'s are consistently triggered by the repro.
This patch moves the PROT_NONE check into mm/memory.c rather than
invoking BUG_ON() as faulting in these pages via faultin_page() is a
valid reason for reaching the NUMA check with the PROT_NONE page table
flag set and is therefore not always a bug.

The fixes to the radix tree test suite show that the multi-order case is
broken. The basic reason is that the radix tree code uses tagged
pointers with the "internal" bit in the low bits, and calculating the
pointer indices was supposed to mask off those bits. But gcc will
notice that we then use the index to re-create the pointer, and will
avoid doing the arithmetic and use the tagged pointer directly.
This cleans the code up, using the existing is_sibling_entry() helper to
validate the sibling pointer range (instead of open-coding it), and
using entry_to_node() to mask off the low tag bit from the pointer. And
once you do that, you might as well just use the now cleaned-up pointer
directly.
[ Side note: the multi-order code isn't actually ever used in the kernel
right now, and the only reason I didn't just delete all that code is
that Kirill Shutemov piped up and said:
"Well, my ext4-with-huge-pages patchset[1] uses multi-order entries.
It also converts shmem-with-huge-pages and hugetlb to them.
I'm okay with converting it to other mechanism, but I need
something. (I looked into Konstantin's RFC patchset[2]. It looks
okay, but I don't feel myself qualified to review it as I don't
know much about radix-tree internals.)"

When we replace a multiorder entry, check that all indices reflect the
new value.
Also, compile the test suite with -O2, which shows other problems with
the code due to some dodgy pointer operations in the radix tree code.

Commit 432c6bacbd0c ("MIPS: Use per-mm page to execute branch delay slot
instructions") accidentally removed use of the MIPS_FPU_EMU_INC_STATS
macro from do_dsemulret, leading to the ds_emul file in debugfs always
returning zero even though we perform delay slot emulations.
Fix this by re-adding the use of the MIPS_FPU_EMU_INC_STATS macro.

This patch fixes the possibility of a deadlock when bringing up
secondary CPUs.
The deadlock occurs because the set_cpu_online() is called before
synchronise_count_slave(). This can cause a deadlock if the boot CPU,
having scheduled another thread, attempts to send an IPI to the
secondary CPU, which it sees has been marked online. The secondary is
blocked in synchronise_count_slave() waiting for the boot CPU to enter
synchronise_count_master(), but the boot cpu is blocked in
smp_call_function_many() waiting for the secondary to respond to it's
IPI request.
Fix this by marking the CPU online in cpu_callin_map and synchronising
counters before declaring the CPU online and calculating the maps for
IPIs.

Merge VM fixes from High Dickins:
"I get the impression that Andrew is away or busy at the moment, so I'm
going to send you three independent uncontroversial little mm fixes
directly - though none is strictly a 4.8 regression fix.
- shmem: fix tmpfs to handle the huge= option properly from Toshi
Kani is a one-liner to fix a major embarrassment in 4.8's hugepages
on tmpfs feature: although Hillf pointed it out in June, somehow
both Kirill and I repeatedly dropped the ball on this one. You
might wonder if the feature got tested at all with that bug in:
yes, it did, but for wider testing coverage, Kirill and I had each
relied too much on an override which bypasses that condition.
- huge tmpfs: fix Committed_AS leak just a run-of-the-mill accounting
fix in the same feature.
- mm: delete unnecessary and unsafe init_tlb_ubc() is an unrelated
fix to 4.3's TLB flush batching in reclaim: the bug would be rare,
and none of us will be shamed if this one misses 4.8; but it got
such a quick ack from Mel today that I'm inclined to offer it along
with the first two"
* emailed patches from Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com>:
mm: delete unnecessary and unsafe init_tlb_ubc()
huge tmpfs: fix Committed_AS leak
shmem: fix tmpfs to handle the huge= option properly
|
|
init_tlb_ubc() looked unnecessary to me: tlb_ubc is statically
initialized with zeroes in the init_task, and copied from parent to
child while it is quiescent in arch_dup_task_struct(); so I went to
delete it.
But inserted temporary debug WARN_ONs in place of init_tlb_ubc() to
check that it was always empty at that point, and found them firing:
because memcg reclaim can recurse into global reclaim (when allocating
biosets for swapout in my case), and arrive back at the init_tlb_ubc()
in shrink_node_memcg().
Resetting tlb_ubc.flush_required at that point is wrong: if the upper
level needs a deferred TLB flush, but the lower level turns out not to,
we miss a TLB flush. But fortunately, that's the only part of the
protocol that does not nest: with the initialization removed, cpumask
collects bits from upper and lower levels, and flushes TLB when needed.

for those who run without overcommit (/proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory 2).

On the v2 hierarchy, "cgroup.subtree_control" rejects controller
enables if the cgroup has processes in it. The enforcement of this
logic assumes that the cgroup wouldn't have any css_sets associated
with it if there are no tasks in the cgroup, which is no longer true
since a79a908fd2b0 ("cgroup: introduce cgroup namespaces").
When a cgroup namespace is created, it pins the css_set of the
creating task to use it as the root css_set of the namespace. This
extra reference stays as long as the namespace is around and makes
"cgroup.subtree_control" think that the namespace root cgroup is not
empty even when it is and thus reject controller enables.
Fix it by making cgroup_subtree_control() walk and test emptiness of
each css_set instead of testing whether the list_head is empty.
While at it, update the comment of cgroup_task_count() to indicate
that the returned value may be higher than the number of tasks, which
has always been true due to temporary references and doesn't break
anything.
