2018-09-04mm: fix BUG_ON() in vmf_insert_pfn_pud() from VM_MIXEDMAP removalDave Jiang
It looks like I missed the PUD path when doing VM_MIXEDMAP removal. This can be triggered by: 1. Boot with memmap=4G!8G 2. build ndctl with destructive flag on 3. make TESTS=device-dax check [ +0.000675] kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:824! Applying the same change that was applied to vmf_insert_pfn_pmd() in the original patch.

gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm Pull libnvdimm memory-failure update from Dave Jiang: "As it stands, memory_failure() gets thoroughly confused by dev_pagemap backed mappings. The recovery code has specific enabling for several possible page states and needs new enabling to handle poison in dax mappings. In order to support reliable reverse mapping of user space addresses: 1/ Add new locking in the memory_failure() rmap path to prevent races that would typically be handled by the page lock. 2/ Since dev_pagemap pages are hidden from the page allocator and the "compound page" accounting machinery, add a mechanism to determine the size of the mapping that encompasses a given poisoned pfn. 3/ Given pmem errors can be repaired, change the speculatively accessed poison protection, mce_unmap_kpfn(), to be reversible and otherwise allow ongoing access from the kernel. A side effect of this enabling is that MADV_HWPOISON becomes usable for dax mappings, however the primary motivation is to allow the system to survive userspace consumption of hardware-poison via dax.

2018-08-23mm: Change return type int to vm_fault_t for fault handlersSouptick Joarder
Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler. For now, this is just documenting that the function returns a VM_FAULT value rather than an errno. Once all instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a distinct type. Ref-> commit 1c8f422059ae ("mm: change return type to vm_fault_t") The aim is to change the return type of finish_fault() and handle_mm_fault() to vm_fault_t type. As part of that clean up return type of all other recursively called functions have been changed to vm_fault_t type. The places from where handle_mm_fault() is getting invoked will be change to vm_fault_t type but in a separate patch. vmf_error() is the newly introduce inline function in 4.17-rc6.

2018-08-17mm, huge page: copy target sub-page last when copy huge pageHuang Ying
Huge page helps to reduce TLB miss rate, but it has higher cache footprint, sometimes this may cause some issue. For example, when copying huge page on x86_64 platform, the cache footprint is 4M. But on a Xeon E5 v3 2699 CPU, there are 18 cores, 36 threads, and only 45M LLC (last level cache). That is, in average, there are 2.5M LLC for each core and 1.25M LLC for each thread. If the cache contention is heavy when copying the huge page, and we copy the huge page from the begin to the end, it is possible that the begin of huge page is evicted from the cache after we finishing copying the end of the huge page. And it is possible for the application to access the begin of the huge page after copying the huge page. In c79b57e462b5d ("mm: hugetlb: clear target sub-page last when clearing huge page"), to keep the cache lines of the target subpage hot, the order to clear the subpages in the huge page in clear_huge_page() is changed to clearing the subpage which is furthest from the target subpage firstly, and the target subpage last. The similar order changing helps huge page copying too. That is implemented in this patch. Because we have put the order algorithm into a separate function, the implementation is quite simple. The patch is a generic optimization which should benefit quite some workloads, not for a specific use case. To demonstrate the performance benefit of the patch, we tested it with vm-scalability run on transparent huge page. With this patch, the throughput increases ~16.6% in vm-scalability anon-cow-seq test case with 36 processes on a 2 socket Xeon E5 v3 2699 system (36 cores, 72 threads). The test case set /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled to be always, mmap() a big anonymous memory area and populate it, then forked 36 child processes, each writes to the anonymous memory area from the begin to the end, so cause copy on write. For each child process, other child processes could be seen as other workloads which generate heavy cache pressure. At the same time, the IPC (instruction per cycle) increased from 0.63 to 0.78, and the time spent in user space is reduced ~7.2%.

2018-08-17thp: use mm_file_counter to determine update which rss counterYang Shi
Since commit eca56ff906bd ("mm, shmem: add internal shmem resident memory accounting"), MM_SHMEMPAGES is added to separate the shmem accounting from regular files. So, all shmem pages should be accounted to MM_SHMEMPAGES instead of MM_FILEPAGES. And, normal 4K shmem pages have been accounted to MM_SHMEMPAGES, so shmem thp pages should be not treated differently. Account them to MM_SHMEMPAGES via mm_counter_file() since shmem pages are swap backed to keep consistent with normal 4K shmem pages. This will not change the rss counter of processes since shmem pages are still a part of it. The /proc/pid/status and /proc/pid/statm counters will however be more accurate wrt shmem usage, as originally intended. And as eca56ff906bd ("mm, shmem: add internal shmem resident memory accounting") mentioned, oom also could report more accurate "shmem-rss".

2018-08-17dax: remove VM_MIXEDMAP for fsdax and device daxDave Jiang
This patch is reworked from an earlier patch that Dan has posted: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10131727/ VM_MIXEDMAP is used by dax to direct mm paths like vm_normal_page() that the memory page it is dealing with is not typical memory from the linear map. The get_user_pages_fast() path, since it does not resolve the vma, is already using {pte,pmd}_devmap() as a stand-in for VM_MIXEDMAP, so we use that as a VM_MIXEDMAP replacement in some locations. In the cases where there is no pte to consult we fallback to using vma_is_dax() to detect the VM_MIXEDMAP special case. Now that we have explicit driver pfn_t-flag opt-in/opt-out for get_user_pages() support for DAX we can stop setting VM_MIXEDMAP. This also means we no longer need to worry about safely manipulating vm_flags in a future where we support dynamically changing the dax mode of a file. DAX should also now be supported with madvise_behavior(), vma_merge(), and copy_page_range(). This patch has been tested against ndctl unit test. It has also been tested against xfstests commit: 625515d using fake pmem created by memmap and no additional issues have been observed.

2018-07-21mm/huge_memory.c: fix data loss when splitting a file pmdHugh Dickins
__split_huge_pmd_locked() must check if the cleared huge pmd was dirty, and propagate that to PageDirty: otherwise, data may be lost when a huge tmpfs page is modified then split then reclaimed. How has this taken so long to be noticed? Because there was no problem when the huge page is written by a write system call (shmem_write_end() calls set_page_dirty()), nor when the page is allocated for a write fault (fault_dirty_shared_page() calls set_page_dirty()); but when allocated for a read fault (which MAP_POPULATE simulates), no set_page_dirty().

2018-07-09memcontrol: schedule throttling if we are congestedTejun Heo
Memory allocations can induce swapping via kswapd or direct reclaim. If we are having IO done for us by kswapd and don't actually go into direct reclaim we may never get scheduled for throttling. So instead check to see if our cgroup is congested, and if so schedule the throttling. Before we return to user space the throttling stuff will only throttle if we actually required it.

2018-06-12treewide: kmalloc() -> kmalloc_array()Kees Cook
The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This patch replaces cases of: kmalloc(a * b, gfp) with: kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp) as well as handling cases of: kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp) with: kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp) as it's slightly less ugly than: kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp) This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like: kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp) though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion. Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were dropped, since they're redundant. The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own implementation of kmalloc(). The Coccinelle script used for this was: // Fix redundant parens around sizeof(). @@ type TYPE; expression THING, E; @@ ( kmalloc( - (sizeof(TYPE)) * E + sizeof(TYPE) * E , ...) | kmalloc( - (sizeof(THING)) * E + sizeof(THING) * E , ...) ) // Drop single-byte sizes and redundant parens. @@ expression COUNT;

2018-06-02mm/huge_memory.c: __split_huge_page() use atomic ClearPageDirty()Hugh Dickins
Swapping load on huge=always tmpfs (with khugepaged tuned up to be very eager, but I'm not sure that is relevant) soon hung uninterruptibly, waiting for page lock in shmem_getpage_gfp()'s find_lock_entry(), most often when "cp -a" was trying to write to a smallish file. Debug showed that the page in question was not locked, and page->mapping NULL by now, but page->index consistent with having been in a huge page before. Reproduced in minutes on a 4.15 kernel, even with 4.17's 605ca5ede764 ("mm/huge_memory.c: reorder operations in __split_huge_page_tail()") added in; but took hours to reproduce on a 4.17 kernel (no idea why). The culprit proved to be the __ClearPageDirty() on tails beyond i_size in __split_huge_page(): the non-atomic __bitoperation may have been safe when 4.8's baa355fd3314 ("thp: file pages support for split_huge_page()") introduced it, but liable to erase PageWaiters after 4.10's 62906027091f ("mm: add PageWaiters indicating tasks are waiting for a page bit").

2018-04-20mm: enable thp migration for shmem thpNaoya Horiguchi
My testing for the latest kernel supporting thp migration showed an infinite loop in offlining the memory block that is filled with shmem thps. We can get out of the loop with a signal, but kernel should return with failure in this case. What happens in the loop is that scan_movable_pages() repeats returning the same pfn without any progress. That's because page migration always fails for shmem thps. In memory offline code, memory blocks containing unmovable pages should be prevented from being offline targets by has_unmovable_pages() inside start_isolate_page_range(). So it's possible to change migratability for non-anonymous thps to avoid the issue, but it introduces more complex and thp-specific handling in migration code, so it might not good. So this patch is suggesting to fix the issue by enabling thp migration for shmem thp. Both of anon/shmem thp are migratable so we don't need precheck about the type of thps.

2018-04-11mm: unclutter THP migrationMichal Hocko
THP migration is hacked into the generic migration with rather surprising semantic. The migration allocation callback is supposed to check whether the THP can be migrated at once and if that is not the case then it allocates a simple page to migrate. unmap_and_move then fixes that up by spliting the THP into small pages while moving the head page to the newly allocated order-0 page. Remaning pages are moved to the LRU list by split_huge_page. The same happens if the THP allocation fails. This is really ugly and error prone [1]. I also believe that split_huge_page to the LRU lists is inherently wrong because all tail pages are not migrated. Some callers will just work around that by retrying (e.g. memory hotplug). There are other pfn walkers which are simply broken though. e.g. madvise_inject_error will migrate head and then advances next pfn by the huge page size. do_move_page_to_node_array, queue_pages_range (migrate_pages, mbind), will simply split the THP before migration if the THP migration is not supported then falls back to single page migration but it doesn't handle tail pages if the THP migration path is not able to allocate a fresh THP so we end up with ENOMEM and fail the whole migration which is a questionable behavior. Page compaction doesn't try to migrate large pages so it should be immune. This patch tries to unclutter the situation by moving the special THP handling up to the migrate_pages layer where it actually belongs. We simply split the THP page into the existing list if unmap_and_move fails with ENOMEM and retry. So we will _always_ migrate all THP subpages and specific migrate_pages users do not have to deal with this case in a special way.

2018-04-11memcg, thp: do not invoke oom killer on thp chargesMichal Hocko
A THP memcg charge can trigger the oom killer since 2516035499b9 ("mm, thp: remove __GFP_NORETRY from khugepaged and madvised allocations"). We have used an explicit __GFP_NORETRY previously which ruled the OOM killer automagically. Memcg charge path should be semantically compliant with the allocation path and that means that if we do not trigger the OOM killer for costly orders which should do the same in the memcg charge path as well. Otherwise we are forcing callers to distinguish the two and use different gfp masks which is both non-intuitive and bug prone. As soon as we get a costly high order kmalloc user we even do not have any means to tell the memcg specific gfp mask to prevent from OOM because the charging is deep within guts of the slab allocator. The unexpected memcg OOM on THP has already been fixed upstream by 9d3c3354bb85 ("mm, thp: do not cause memcg oom for thp") but this is a one-off fix rather than a generic solution. Teach mem_cgroup_oom to bail out on costly order requests to fix the THP issue as well as any other costly OOM eligible allocations to be added in future. Also revert 9d3c3354bb85 because special gfp for THP is no longer needed.

2018-04-05mm/huge_memory.c: reorder operations in __split_huge_page_tail()Konstantin Khlebnikov
THP split makes non-atomic change of tail page flags. This is almost ok because tail pages are locked and isolated but this breaks recent changes in page locking: non-atomic operation could clear bit PG_waiters. As a result concurrent sequence get_page_unless_zero() -> lock_page() might block forever. Especially if this page was truncated later. Fix is trivial: clone flags before unfreezing page reference counter. This race exists since commit 62906027091f ("mm: add PageWaiters indicating tasks are waiting for a page bit") while unsave unfreeze itself was added in commit 8df651c7059e ("thp: cleanup split_huge_page()"). clear_compound_head() also must be called before unfreezing page reference because after successful get_page_unless_zero() might follow put_page() which needs correct compound_head(). And replace page_ref_inc()/page_ref_add() with page_ref_unfreeze() which is made especially for that and has semantic of smp_store_release().

Commit 2516035499b9 ("mm, thp: remove __GFP_NORETRY from khugepaged and madvised allocations") changed the page allocator to no longer detect thp allocations based on __GFP_NORETRY. It did not, however, modify the mem cgroup try_charge() path to avoid oom kill for either khugepaged collapsing or thp faulting. It is never expected to oom kill a process to allocate a hugepage for thp; reclaim is governed by the thp defrag mode and MADV_HUGEPAGE, but allocations (and charging) should fallback instead of oom killing processes.

2017-12-15Revert "mm: replace p??_write with pte_access_permitted in fault + gup paths"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commits 5c9d2d5c269c, c7da82b894e9, and e7fe7b5cae90. We'll probably need to revisit this, but basically we should not complicate the get_user_pages_fast() case, and checking the actual page table protection key bits will require more care anyway, since the protection keys depend on the exact state of the VM in question. Particularly when doing a "remote" page lookup (ie in somebody elses VM, not your own), you need to be much more careful than this was. Dave Hansen says: "So, the underlying bug here is that we now a get_user_pages_remote() and then go ahead and do the p*_access_permitted() checks against the current PKRU. This was introduced recently with the addition of the new p??_access_permitted() calls. We have checks in the VMA path for the "remote" gups and we avoid consulting PKRU for them. This got missed in the pkeys selftests because I did a ptrace read, but not a *write*. I also didn't explicitly test it against something where a COW needed to be done" It's also not entirely clear that it makes sense to check the protection key bits at this level at all. But one possible eventual solution is to make the get_user_pages_fast() case just abort if it sees protection key bits set, which makes us fall back to the regular get_user_pages() case, which then has a vma and can do the check there if we want to. We'll see. Somewhat related to this all: what we _do_ want to do some day is to check the PAGE_USER bit - it should obviously always be set for user pages, but it would be a good check to have back. Because we have no generic way to test for it, we lost it as part of moving over from the architecture-specific x86 GUP implementation to the generic one in commit e585513b76f7 ("x86/mm/gup: Switch GUP to the generic get_user_page_fast() implementation").

Currently we make page table entries dirty all the time regardless of access type and don't even consider if the mapping is write-protected. The reasoning is that we don't really need dirty tracking on THP and making the entry dirty upfront may save some time on first write to the page. Unfortunately, such approach may result in false-positive can_follow_write_pmd() for huge zero page or read-only shmem file. Let's only make page dirty only if we about to write to the page anyway (as we do for small pages). I've restructured the code to make entry dirty inside maybe_p[mu]d_mkwrite(). It also takes into account if the vma is write-protected. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2017-11-15mm: consolidate page table accountingKirill A. Shutemov
Currently, we account page tables separately for each page table level, but that's redundant -- we only make use of total memory allocated to page tables for oom_badness calculation. We also provide the information to userspace, but it has dubious value there too. This patch switches page table accounting to single counter. mm->pgtables_bytes is now used to account all page table levels. We use bytes, because page table size for different levels of page table tree may be different. The change has user-visible effect: we don't have VmPMD and VmPUD reported in /proc/[pid]/status. Not sure if anybody uses them. (As alternative, we can always report 0 kB for them.) OOM-killer report is also slightly changed: we now report pgtables_bytes instead of nr_ptes, nr_pmd, nr_puds. Apart from reducing number of counters per-mm, the benefit is that we now calculate oom_badness() more correctly for machines which have different size of page tables depending on level or where page tables are less than a page in size. The only downside can be debuggability because we do not know which page table level could leak. But I do not remember many bugs that would be caught by separate counters so I wouldn't lose sleep over this.

Everyone else is unaffected by it. When clearing a pte/pmd we are given a choice to notify the event under the page table lock (notify version of *_clear_flush helpers do call the mmu_notifier_invalidate_range). But that notification is not necessary in all cases. This patch removes almost all cases where it is useless to have a call to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range before mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end. It also adds documentation in all those cases explaining why. Below is a more in depth analysis of why this is fine to do this: For secondary TLB (non CPU TLB) like IOMMU TLB or device TLB (when device use thing like ATS/PASID to get the IOMMU to walk the CPU page table to access a process virtual address space). There is only 2 cases when you need to notify those secondary TLB while holding page table lock when clearing a pte/pmd: A) page backing address is free before mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end B) a page table entry is updated to point to a new page (COW, write fault on zero page, __replace_page(), ...) Case A is obvious you do not want to take the risk for the device to write to a page that might now be used by something completely different. Case B is more subtle. For correctness it requires the following sequence to happen: - take page table lock - clear page table entry and notify (pmd/pte_huge_clear_flush_notify()) - set page table entry to point to new page If clearing the page table entry is not followed by a notify before setting the new pte/pmd value then you can break memory model like C11 or C++11 for the device. Consider the following scenario (device use a feature similar to ATS/ PASID): Two address addrA and addrB such that |addrA - addrB| >= PAGE_SIZE we assume they are write protected for COW (other case of B apply too). [Time N] ----------------------------------------------------------------- CPU-thread-0 {try to write to addrA} CPU-thread-1 {try to write to addrB} CPU-thread-2 {} CPU-thread-3 {} DEV-thread-0 {read addrA and populate device TLB} DEV-thread-2 {read addrB and populate device TLB} [Time N+1] --------------------------------------------------------------- CPU-thread-0 {COW_step0: {mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start(addrA)}} CPU-thread-1 {COW_step0: {mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start(addrB)}} CPU-thread-2 {} CPU-thread-3 {} DEV-thread-0 {} DEV-thread-2 {} [Time N+2] --------------------------------------------------------------- CPU-thread-0 {COW_step1: {update page table point to new page for addrA}} CPU-thread-1 {COW_step1: {update page table point to new page for addrB}} CPU-thread-2 {} CPU-thread-3 {} DEV-thread-0 {} DEV-thread-2 {} [Time N+3] --------------------------------------------------------------- CPU-thread-0 {preempted} CPU-thread-1 {preempted} CPU-thread-2 {write to addrA which is a write to new page} CPU-thread-3 {} DEV-thread-0 {} DEV-thread-2 {} [Time N+3] --------------------------------------------------------------- CPU-thread-0 {preempted} CPU-thread-1 {preempted} CPU-thread-2 {} CPU-thread-3 {write to addrB which is a write to new page} DEV-thread-0 {} DEV-thread-2 {} [Time N+4] --------------------------------------------------------------- CPU-thread-0 {preempted} CPU-thread-1 {COW_step3: {mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end(addrB)}} CPU-thread-2 {} CPU-thread-3 {} DEV-thread-0 {} DEV-thread-2 {} [Time N+5] --------------------------------------------------------------- CPU-thread-0 {preempted} CPU-thread-1 {} CPU-thread-2 {} CPU-thread-3 {} DEV-thread-0 {read addrA from old page} DEV-thread-2 {read addrB from new page} So here because at time N+2 the clear page table entry was not pair with a notification to invalidate the secondary TLB, the device see the new value for addrB before seing the new value for addrA. This break total memory ordering for the device. When changing a pte to write protect or to point to a new write protected page with same content (KSM) it is ok to delay invalidate_range callback to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end() outside the page table lock. This is true even if the thread doing page table update is preempted right after releasing page table lock before calling mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end Thanks to Andrea for thinking of a problematic scenario for COW.

2017-10-25locking/atomics: COCCINELLE/treewide: Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() patterns ↵Mark Rutland
to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the coccinelle script shown below and apply its output. For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in churn. However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following coccinelle script: ---- // Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and // WRITE_ONCE() // $ make coccicheck COCCI=/home/mark/once.cocci SPFLAGS="--include-headers" MODE=patch virtual patch @ depends on patch @ expression E1, E2; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E1) = E2 + WRITE_ONCE(E1, E2) @ depends on patch @ expression E; @@ - ACCESS_ONCE(E) + READ_ONCE(E) ---- Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2017-09-08mm: thp: check pmd migration entry in common pathZi Yan
When THP migration is being used, memory management code needs to handle pmd migration entries properly. This patch uses !pmd_present() or is_swap_pmd() (depending on whether pmd_none() needs separate code or not) to check pmd migration entries at the places where a pmd entry is present. Since pmd-related code uses split_huge_page(), split_huge_pmd(), pmd_trans_huge(), pmd_trans_unstable(), or pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), this patch: 1. adds pmd migration entry split code in split_huge_pmd(), 2. takes care of pmd migration entries whenever pmd_trans_huge() is present, 3. makes pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() pmd migration entry aware. Since split_huge_page() uses split_huge_pmd() and pmd_trans_unstable() is equivalent to pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), we do not change them. Until this commit, a pmd entry should be: 1. pointing to a pte page, 2. is_swap_pmd(), 3. pmd_trans_huge(), 4. pmd_devmap(), or 5. pmd_none().

Add thp migration's core code, including conversions between a PMD entry and a swap entry, setting PMD migration entry, removing PMD migration entry, and waiting on PMD migration entries. This patch makes it possible to support thp migration. If you fail to allocate a destination page as a thp, you just split the source thp as we do now, and then enter the normal page migration. If you succeed to allocate destination thp, you enter thp migration. Subsequent patches actually enable thp migration for each caller of page migration by allowing its get_new_page() callback to allocate thps.

2017-09-08mm: thp: introduce separate TTU flag for thp freezingNaoya Horiguchi
TTU_MIGRATION is used to convert pte into migration entry until thp split completes. This behavior conflicts with thp migration added later patches, so let's introduce a new TTU flag specifically for freezing. try_to_unmap() is used both for thp split (via freeze_page()) and page migration (via __unmap_and_move()). In freeze_page(), ttu_flag given for head page is like below (assuming anonymous thp): (TTU_IGNORE_MLOCK | TTU_IGNORE_ACCESS | TTU_RMAP_LOCKED | \ TTU_MIGRATION | TTU_SPLIT_HUGE_PMD) and ttu_flag given for tail pages is: (TTU_IGNORE_MLOCK | TTU_IGNORE_ACCESS | TTU_RMAP_LOCKED | \ TTU_MIGRATION) __unmap_and_move() calls try_to_unmap() with ttu_flag: (TTU_MIGRATION | TTU_IGNORE_MLOCK | TTU_IGNORE_ACCESS) Now I'm trying to insert a branch for thp migration at the top of try_to_unmap_one() like below static int try_to_unmap_one(struct page *page, struct vm_area_struct *vma, unsigned long address, void *arg) { ... /* PMD-mapped THP migration entry */ if (!pvmw.pte && (flags & TTU_MIGRATION)) { if (!PageAnon(page)) continue; set_pmd_migration_entry(&pvmw, page); continue; } ... } so try_to_unmap() for tail pages called by thp split can go into thp migration code path (which converts *pmd* into migration entry), while the expectation is to freeze thp (which converts *pte* into migration entry.) I detected this failure as a "bad page state" error in a testcase where split_huge_page() is called from queue_pages_pte_range().

2017-09-06mm: hugetlb: clear target sub-page last when clearing huge pageHuang Ying
Huge page helps to reduce TLB miss rate, but it has higher cache footprint, sometimes this may cause some issue. For example, when clearing huge page on x86_64 platform, the cache footprint is 2M. But on a Xeon E5 v3 2699 CPU, there are 18 cores, 36 threads, and only 45M LLC (last level cache). That is, in average, there are 2.5M LLC for each core and 1.25M LLC for each thread. If the cache pressure is heavy when clearing the huge page, and we clear the huge page from the begin to the end, it is possible that the begin of huge page is evicted from the cache after we finishing clearing the end of the huge page. And it is possible for the application to access the begin of the huge page after clearing the huge page. To help the above situation, in this patch, when we clear a huge page, the order to clear sub-pages is changed. In quite some situation, we can get the address that the application will access after we clear the huge page, for example, in a page fault handler. Instead of clearing the huge page from begin to end, we will clear the sub-pages farthest from the the sub-page to access firstly, and clear the sub-page to access last. This will make the sub-page to access most cache-hot and sub-pages around it more cache-hot too. If we cannot know the address the application will access, the begin of the huge page is assumed to be the the address the application will access. With this patch, the throughput increases ~28.3% in vm-scalability anon-w-seq test case with 72 processes on a 2 socket Xeon E5 v3 2699 system (36 cores, 72 threads). The test case creates 72 processes, each process mmap a big anonymous memory area and writes to it from the begin to the end. For each process, other processes could be seen as other workload which generates heavy cache pressure. At the same time, the cache miss rate reduced from ~33.4% to ~31.7%, the IPC (instruction per cycle) increased from 0.56 to 0.74, and the time spent in user space is reduced ~7.9% Christopher Lameter suggests to clear bytes inside a sub-page from end to begin too. But tests show no visible performance difference in the tests. May because the size of page is small compared with the cache size. Thanks Andi Kleen to propose to use address to access to determine the order of sub-pages to clear. The hugetlbfs access address could be improved, will do that in another patch.

After adding swapping out support for THP (Transparent Huge Page), it is possible that a THP in swap cache (partly swapped out) need to be split. To split such a THP, the swap cluster backing the THP need to be split too, that is, the CLUSTER_FLAG_HUGE flag need to be cleared for the swap cluster. The patch implemented this. And because the THP swap writing needs the THP keeps as huge page during writing. The PageWriteback flag is checked before splitting.

2017-09-06mm, THP, swap: make reuse_swap_page() works for THP swapped outHuang Ying
After supporting to delay THP (Transparent Huge Page) splitting after swapped out, it is possible that some page table mappings of the THP are turned into swap entries. So reuse_swap_page() need to check the swap count in addition to the map count as before. This patch done that. In the huge PMD write protect fault handler, in addition to the page map count, the swap count need to be checked too, so the page lock need to be acquired too when calling reuse_swap_page() in addition to the page table lock.
