Revert "mm: page_alloc: skip over regions of invalid pfns where possible"

2018-03-28T16:22:59+00:00

commit f59f1caf72ba00d519c793c3deb32cd3be32edc2 upstream. This reverts commit b92df1de5d28 ("mm: page_alloc: skip over regions of invalid pfns where possible"). The commit is meant to be a boot init speed up skipping the loop in memmap_init_zone() for invalid pfns. But given some specific memory mapping on x86_64 (or more generally theoretically anywhere but on arm with CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID) the implementation also skips valid pfns which is plain wrong and causes 'kernel BUG at mm/page_alloc.c:1389!' crash> log | grep -e BUG -e RIP -e Call.Trace -e move_freepages_block -e rmqueue -e freelist -A1 kernel BUG at mm/page_alloc.c:1389! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP -- RIP: 0010: move_freepages+0x15e/0x160 -- Call Trace: move_freepages_block+0x73/0x80 __rmqueue+0x263/0x460 get_page_from_freelist+0x7e1/0x9e0 __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x176/0x420 -- crash> page_init_bug -v | grep RAM 1000 - 9bfff System RAM (620.00 KiB) 100000 - 430bffff System RAM ( 1.05 GiB = 1071.75 MiB = 1097472.00 KiB) 4b0c8000 - 4bf9cfff System RAM ( 14.83 MiB = 15188.00 KiB) 4bfac000 - 646b1fff System RAM (391.02 MiB = 400408.00 KiB) 7b788000 - 7b7fffff System RAM (480.00 KiB) 100000000 - 67fffffff System RAM ( 22.00 GiB) crash> page_init_bug | head -6 7b788000 - 7b7fffff System RAM (480.00 KiB) 1fffff00000000 0 1 DMA32 4096 1048575 505736 505344 505855 0 0 0 DMA 1 4095 1fffff00000400 0 1 DMA32 4096 1048575 BUG, zones differ! crash> kmem -p 77fff000 78000000 7b5ff000 7b600000 7b787000 7b788000 PAGE PHYSICAL MAPPING INDEX CNT FLAGS ffffea0001e00000 78000000 0 0 0 0 ffffea0001ed7fc0 7b5ff000 0 0 0 0 ffffea0001ed8000 7b600000 0 0 0 0 <<<< ffffea0001ede1c0 7b787000 0 0 0 0 ffffea0001ede200 7b788000 0 0 1 1fffff00000000 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180316143855.29838-1-neelx@redhat.com Fixes: b92df1de5d28 ("mm: page_alloc: skip over regions of invalid pfns where possible") Signed-off-by: Daniel Vacek Acked-by: Ard Biesheuvel Acked-by: Michal Hocko Reviewed-by: Andrew Morton Cc: Vlastimil Babka Cc: Mel Gorman Cc: Pavel Tatashin Cc: Paul Burton Cc: Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Since __kmalloc_reserve() from __alloc_skb() adds __GFP_NOMEMALLOC | __GFP_NOWARN to gfp_mask, and all reclaim path simply propagates __GFP_NOMEMALLOC, fs_reclaim_acquire() in slab_pre_alloc_hook() is trying to grab the 'fake' lock again when __perform_reclaim() already grabbed the 'fake' lock. The /* this guy won't enter reclaim */ if ((current->flags & PF_MEMALLOC) && !(gfp_mask & __GFP_NOMEMALLOC)) return false; test which causes slab_pre_alloc_hook() to try to grab the 'fake' lock was added by commit cf40bd16fdad ("lockdep: annotate reclaim context (__GFP_NOFS)"). But that test is outdated because PF_MEMALLOC thread won't enter reclaim regardless of __GFP_NOMEMALLOC after commit 341ce06f69ab ("page allocator: calculate the alloc_flags for allocation only once") added the PF_MEMALLOC safeguard ( /* Avoid recursion of direct reclaim */ if (p->flags & PF_MEMALLOC) goto nopage; in __alloc_pages_slowpath()). Thus, let's fix outdated test by removing __GFP_NOMEMALLOC test and allow __need_fs_reclaim() to return false.

mm: don't defer struct page initialization for Xen pv guests

mm, memory_hotplug: fix memmap initialization

2018-02-22T14:39:57+00:00

commit 9bb5a391f9a5707e04763cf14298fc4cc29bfecd upstream. Bharata has noticed that onlining a newly added memory doesn't increase the total memory, pointing to commit f7f99100d8d9 ("mm: stop zeroing memory during allocation in vmemmap") as a culprit. This commit has changed the way how the memory for memmaps is initialized and moves it from the allocation time to the initialization time. This works properly for the early memmap init path. It doesn't work for the memory hotplug though because we need to mark page as reserved when the sparsemem section is created and later initialize it completely during onlining. memmap_init_zone is called in the early stage of onlining. With the current code it calls __init_single_page and as such it clears up the whole stage and therefore online_pages_range skips those pages. Fix this by skipping mm_zero_struct_page in __init_single_page for memory hotplug path. This is quite uggly but unifying both early init and memory hotplug init paths is a large project. Make sure we plug the regression at least.

This fixes the problem and potential other similar problems. Also as Pavel Tatashin suggested checks pfn_valid at the beginning of the section. The range is backed by real memory. The memory range is efi "Boot Service Data", that means after ExitBootServices() these ranges can be used as system ram. But some of them need to be reserved, for example the bgrt image address in an acpi table, if the image memory is freed then kexec reboot will fail because kexec inherit same acpi table to initialize the driver.

mm/page_alloc.c: avoid excessive IRQ disabled times in free_unref_page_list()

2017-12-15T00:00:48+00:00

Since commit 9cca35d42eb6 ("mm, page_alloc: enable/disable IRQs once when freeing a list of pages") we see excessive IRQ disabled times of up to 25ms on an embedded ARM system (tracing overhead included). This is due to graphics buffers being freed back to the system via release_pages(). Graphics buffers can be huge, so it's not hard to hit cases where the list of pages to free has 2048 entries. Disabling IRQs while freeing all those pages is clearly not a good idea. Introduce a batch limit, which allows IRQ servicing once every few pages. The batch count is the same as used in other parts of the MM subsystem when dealing with IRQ disabled regions.

mm/cma: fix alloc_contig_range ret code/potential leak

2017-11-30T02:40:42+00:00

If the call __alloc_contig_migrate_range() in alloc_contig_range returns -EBUSY, processing continues so that test_pages_isolated() is called where there is a tracepoint to identify the busy pages. However, it is possible for busy pages to become available between the calls to these two routines. In this case, the range of pages may be allocated. Unfortunately, the original return code (ret == -EBUSY) is still set and returned to the caller. Therefore, the caller believes the pages were not allocated and they are leaked. Update the comment to indicate that allocation is still possible even if __alloc_contig_migrate_range returns -EBUSY. Also, clear return code in this case so that it is not accidentally used or returned to caller.

mm, memory_hotplug: do not back off draining pcp free pages from kworker context

2017-11-30T02:40:42+00:00

drain_all_pages backs off when called from a kworker context since commit 0ccce3b92421 ("mm, page_alloc: drain per-cpu pages from workqueue context") because the original IPI based pcp draining has been replaced by a WQ based one and the check wanted to prevent from recursion and inter workers dependencies. This has made some sense at the time because the system WQ has been used and one worker holding the lock could be blocked while waiting for new workers to emerge which can be a problem under OOM conditions. Since then commit ce612879ddc7 ("mm: move pcp and lru-pcp draining into single wq") has moved draining to a dedicated (mm_percpu_wq) WQ with a rescuer so we shouldn't depend on any other WQ activity to make a forward progress so calling drain_all_pages from a worker context is safe as long as this doesn't happen from mm_percpu_wq itself which is not the case because all workers are required to _not_ depend on any MM locks. Why is this a problem in the first place? ACPI driven memory hot-remove (acpi_device_hotplug) is executed from the worker context. We end up calling __offline_pages to free all the pages and that requires both lru_add_drain_all_cpuslocked and drain_all_pages to do their job otherwise we can have dangling pages on pcp lists and fail the offline operation (__test_page_isolated_in_pageblock would see a page with 0 ref count but without PageBuddy set). Fix the issue by removing the worker check in drain_all_pages. lru_add_drain_all_cpuslocked doesn't have this restriction so it works as expected.

mm, compaction: split off flag for not updating skip hints

2017-11-18T00:10:00+00:00

Pageblock skip hints were added as a heuristic for compaction, which shares core code with CMA. Since CMA reliability would suffer from the heuristics, compact_control flag ignore_skip_hint was added for the CMA use case. Since 6815bf3f233e ("mm/compaction: respect ignore_skip_hint in update_pageblock_skip") the flag also means that CMA won't *update* the skip hints in addition to ignoring them. Today, direct compaction can also ignore the skip hints in the last resort attempt, but there's no reason not to set them when isolation fails in such case. Thus, this patch splits off a new no_set_skip_hint flag to avoid the updating, which only CMA sets. This should improve the heuristics a bit, and allow us to simplify the persistent skip bit handling as the next step.

mm: make alloc_node_mem_map a void call if we don't have CONFIG_FLAT_NODE_MEM_MAP

2017-11-16T02:21:07+00:00

free_area_init_node() calls alloc_node_mem_map(), but this function does nothing unless we have CONFIG_FLAT_NODE_MEM_MAP. As a cleanup, we can move the "#ifdef CONFIG_FLAT_NODE_MEM_MAP" within alloc_node_mem_map() out of the function, and define a alloc_node_mem_map() { } when CONFIG_FLAT_NODE_MEM_MAP is not present. This also moves the printk that lays within the "#ifdef CONFIG_FLAT_NODE_MEM_MAP" block from free_area_init_node() to alloc_node_mem_map(), getting rid of the "#ifdef CONFIG_FLAT_NODE_MEM_MAP" in free_area_init_node().
