mm, thp: avoid unlikely branches for split_huge_pmd
While doing MADV_DONTNEED on a large area of thp memory, I noticed we
encountered many unlikely() branches in profiles for each backing
hugepage. This is because zap_pmd_range() would call split_huge_pmd(),
which rechecked the conditions that were already validated, but as part
of an unlikely() branch.
Avoid the unlikely() branch when in a context where pmd is known to be
good for __split_huge_pmd() directly.

mm/vmalloc.c: simplify /proc/vmallocinfo implementation
Many seq_file helpers exist for simplifying implementation of virtual
files especially, for /proc nodes. however, the helpers for iteration
over list_head are available but aren't adopted to implement
/proc/vmallocinfo currently.
Simplify /proc/vmallocinfo implementation by using existing seq_file
helpers.

mm: make unreserve highatomic functions reliable
Currently, unreserve_highatomic_pageblock bails out if it found
highatomic pageblock regardless of really moving free pages from the one
so that it could mitigate unreserve logic's goal which saves OOM of a
process.
This patch makes unreserve functions bail out only if it moves some
pages out of !highatomic free list to avoid such false positive.
Another potential problem is that by race between page freeing and
reserve highatomic function, pages could be in highatomic free list even
though the pageblock is !high atomic migratetype. In that case,
unreserve_highatomic_pageblock can be void if count of highatomic
reserve is less than pageblock_nr_pages. We could solve it simply via
draining all of reserved pages before the OOM. It would have a
safeguard role to exhuast reserved pages before converging to OOM.

I got OOM report from production team with v4.4 kernel. It had enough

encountered OOM kill. It occured during QA process which launches
several apps, switching and so on. It happned rarely. IOW, In normal

I could reproduce it with my test(memory spike easily. Look at below.
The reason is free pages(19M) of DMA32 zone are reserved for
HIGHORDERATOMIC and doesn't unreserved before the OOM.

It's weird to show that zone has enough free memory above min watermark
but OOMed with 4K GFP_KERNEL allocation due to reserved highatomic
pages. As last resort, try to unreserve highatomic pages again and if
it has moved pages to non-highatmoc free list, retry reclaim once more.

mm: prevent double decrease of nr_reserved_highatomic
There is race between page freeing and unreserved highatomic.

unreserve_highatomic_pageblock

__free_one_page(mt) <- mt is stale
By above race, a page on CPU 0 could go non-highorderatomic free list
since the pageblock's type is changed. By that, unreserve logic of
highorderatomic can decrease reserved count on a same pageblock severak
times and then it will make mismatch between nr_reserved_highatomic and
the number of reserved pageblock.
So, this patch verifies whether the pageblock is highatomic or not and
decrease the count only if the pageblock is highatomic.

During the investigation, I found some problems with highatomic so this
patch aims to solve the problems and the final goal is to unreserve
every highatomic free pages before the OOM kill.
This patch (of 4):
In page freeing path, migratetype is racy so that a highorderatomic page
could free into non-highorderatomic free list. If that page is
allocated, VM can change the pageblock from higorderatomic to something.
In that case, highatomic pageblock accounting is broken so it doesn't
work(e.g., VM cannot reserve highorderatomic pageblocks any more
although it doesn't reach 1% limit).
So, this patch prohibits the changing from highatomic to other type.
It's no problem because MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC is not listed in fallback
array so stealing will only happen due to unexpected races which is
really rare. Also, such prohibiting keeps highatomic pageblock more
longer so it would be better for highorderatomic page allocation.

mm/vmscan.c: set correct defer count for shrinker
Our system uses significantly more slab memory with memcg enabled with
the latest kernel. With 3.10 kernel, slab uses 2G memory, while with
4.6 kernel, 6G memory is used. The shrinker has problem. Let's see we
have two memcg for one shrinker. In do_shrink_slab:
1. Check cg1. nr_deferred = 0, assume total_scan = 700. batch size
is 1024, then no memory is freed. nr_deferred = 700
2. Check cg2. nr_deferred = 700. Assume freeable = 20, then
total_scan = 10 or 40. Let's assume it's 10. No memory is freed.
nr_deferred = 10.
The deferred share of cg1 is lost in this case. kswapd will free no
memory even run above steps again and again.
The fix makes sure one memcg's deferred share isn't lost.

mm/mprotect.c: don't touch single threaded PTEs which are on the right node
We had some problems with pages getting unmapped in single threaded
affinitized processes. It was tracked down to NUMA scanning.
In this case it doesn't make any sense to unmap pages if the process is
single threaded and the page is already on the node the process is
running on.
Add a check for this case into the numa protection code, and skip
unmapping if true.
In theory the process could be migrated later, but we will eventually
rescan and unmap and migrate then.
In theory this could be made more fancy: remembering this state per
process or even whole mm. However that would need extra tracking and be
more complicated, and the simple check seems to work fine so far.

Rather than tracking the number of active slabs for each node, track the

For slab debugging, this also removes an explicit free count since it
can easily be inferred by the difference in number of total objects and

mm, slab: faster active and free stats
Reading /proc/slabinfo or monitoring slabtop(1) can become very
expensive if there are many slab caches and if there are very lengthy
per-node partial and/or free lists.
Commit
07a63c41fa1f ("mm/slab: improve performance of gathering slabinfo
stats") addressed the per-node full lists which showed a significant
improvement when no objects were freed. This patch has the same
motivation and optimizes the remainder of the usecases where there are
very lengthy partial and free lists.
This patch maintains per-node active_slabs (full and partial) and
free_slabs rather than iterating the lists at runtime when reading
/proc/slabinfo.
When allocating 100GB of slab from a test cache where every slab page is
on the partial list, reading /proc/slabinfo (includes all other slab
caches on the system) takes ~247ms on average with 48 samples.
As a result of this patch, the same read takes ~0.856ms on average.

slub: avoid false-postive warning

- add a bogus initialization, which would increase the runtime overhead
- replace unlikely() with unlikely_notrace()
- remove the unlikely() annotation completely

slub: move synchronize_sched out of slab_mutex on shrink
synchronize_sched() is a heavy operation and calling it per each cache
owned by a memory cgroup being destroyed may take quite some time. What
is worse, it's currently called under the slab_mutex, stalling all works
doing cache creation/destruction.
Actually, there isn't much point in calling synchronize_sched() for each
cache - it's enough to call it just once - after setting cpu_partial for
all caches and before shrinking them. This way, we can also move it out
of the slab_mutex, which we have to hold for iterating over the slab
cache list.

mm: memcontrol: use special workqueue for creating per-memcg caches
Creating a lot of cgroups at the same time might stall all worker
threads with kmem cache creation works, because kmem cache creation is
done with the slab_mutex held. The problem was amplified by commits
801faf0db894 ("mm/slab: lockless decision to grow cache") in case of
SLAB and
81ae6d03952c ("mm/slub.c: replace kick_all_cpus_sync() with
synchronize_sched() in kmem_cache_shrink()") in case of SLUB, which
increased the maximal time the slab_mutex can be held.
To prevent that from happening, let's use a special ordered single
threaded workqueue for kmem cache creation. This shouldn't introduce
any functional changes regarding how kmem caches are created, as the
work function holds the global slab_mutex during its whole runtime
anyway, making it impossible to run more than one work at a time. By
using a single threaded workqueue, we just avoid creating a thread per
each work. Ordering is required to avoid a situation when a cgroup's
work is put off indefinitely because there are other cgroups to serve,
in other words to guarantee fairness.

prctl: remove one-shot limitation for changing exe link
This limitation came with the reason to remove "another way for
malicious code to obscure a compromised program and masquerade as a
benign process" by allowing "security-concious program can use this
prctl once during its early initialization to ensure the prctl cannot
later be abused for this purpose":
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=
133160684517468&w=2
This explanation doesn't look sufficient. The only thing "exe" link is
indicating is the file, used to execve, which is basically nothing and
not reliable immediately after process has returned from execve system
call.
Moreover, to use this feture, all the mappings to previous exe file have
to be unmapped and all the new exe file permissions must be satisfied.
Which means, that changing exe link is very similar to calling execve on
the binary.
The need to remove this limitations comes from migration of NFS mount
point, which is not accessible during restore and replaced by other file
system. Because of this exe link has to be changed twice.

Merge branch 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"This update is pretty big and almost exclusively includes tooling
changes, because v4.9's LTS status forced to completion most of the
pending kernel side hardware enablement work and because we tried to
freeze core perf work a bit to give a time window for the fuzzing
efforts.
The diff is large mostly due to the JSON hardware event tables added
for Intel and Power8 CPUs. This was a popular feature request from
people working close to hardware and from the HPC community.
Tree size is big because this added the CPU event tables for over a
decade of Intel CPUs. Future changes for a CPU vendor alrady support
should be much smaller, as events for new models are added. The new
events are listed in 'perf list', for the CPU model the tool is
running on. If you find an interesting event it can be used as-is:
$ perf stat -a -e l2_lines_out.pf_clean sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
7,860,403 l2_lines_out.pf_clean
1.
000624918 seconds time elapsed
The event lists can be searched the usual 'perf list' fashion for
(case insensitive) substrings as well:
$ perf list l2_lines_out
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):
cache:
l2_lines_out.demand_clean
[Clean L2 cache lines evicted by demand]
l2_lines_out.demand_dirty
[Dirty L2 cache lines evicted by demand]
l2_lines_out.dirty_all
[Dirty L2 cache lines filling the L2]
l2_lines_out.pf_clean
[Clean L2 cache lines evicted by L2 prefetch]
l2_lines_out.pf_dirty
[Dirty L2 cache lines evicted by L2 prefetch]
etc.
There's a few high level categories as well that can be listed:
'cache', 'floating point', 'frontend', 'memory', 'pipeline', 'virtual
memory'.
Existing generic events and workflows should work as-is.
The only kernel side change is a late breaking fix for an older
regression, related to Intel BTS, LBR and PT feature interaction.
On the tooling side there are three new tools / major features:
- The new 'perf c2c' tool provides means for Shared Data C2C/HITM
analysis.
This allows you to track down cacheline contention. The tool is
based on x86's load latency and precise store facility events
provided by Intel CPUs.
It was tested by Joe Mario and has proven to be useful, finding
some cacheline contentions. Joe also wrote a blog about c2c tool
with examples:
https://joemario.github.io/blog/2016/09/01/c2c-blog/
excerpt of the content on this site:
At a high level, “perf c2c” will show you:
* The cachelines where false sharing was detected.
* The readers and writers to those cachelines, and the offsets where those accesses occurred.
* The pid, tid, instruction addr, function name, binary object name for those readers and writers.
* The source file and line number for each reader and writer.
* The average load latency for the loads to those cachelines.
* Which numa nodes the samples a cacheline came from and which CPUs were involved.
Using perf c2c is similar to using the Linux perf tool today.
First collect data with “perf c2c record”, then generate a
report output with “perf c2c report”
There one finds extensive details on using the tool, with tips on
reducing the volume of samples while still capturing enough to do
its job. (Dick Fowles, Joe Mario, Don Zickus, Jiri Olsa)
- The new 'perf sched timehist' tool provides tailored analysis of
scheduling events.
Example usage:
perf sched record -- sleep 1
perf sched timehist
By default it shows the individual schedule events, including the
wait time (time between sched-out and next sched-in events for the
task), the task scheduling delay (time between wakeup and actually
running) and run time for the task:
time cpu task name wait time sch delay run time
[tid/pid] (msec) (msec) (msec)

...
Times are in msec.usec. (David Ahern, Namhyung Kim)
- Add CPU vendor hardware event tables:
Add JSON files with vendor event naming for Intel and Power8
processors, allowing users of tools like oprofile to keep using the
event names they are used to, as well as people reading vendor
documentation, where such naming is used. (Andi Kleen, Sukadev
Bhattiprolu)
You should see all the new events with 'perf list' and you should
be able to search them, for example 'perf list miss' will list all
the myriads of miss events.
Other tooling features added were:
- Cross-arch annotation support:
o Improve ARM support in the annotation code, affecting 'perf
annotate', 'perf report' and live annotation in 'perf top' (Kim
Phillips)
o Initial support for PowerPC in the annotation code (Ravi
Bangoria)
o Support AArch64 in the 'annotate' code, native/local and
cross-arch/remote (Kim Phillips)
- Allow considering just events in a given time interval, via the
'--time start.s.ms,end.s.ms' command line, added to 'perf kmem',
'perf report', 'perf sched timehist' and 'perf script' (David
Ahern)
- Add option to stop printing a callchain at one of a given group of
symbol names (David Ahern)
- Track memory freed in 'perf kmem stat' (David Ahern)
- Allow querying and setting .perfconfig variables (Taeung Song)
- Show branch information in callchains (predicted, TSX aborts, loop
iteractions, etc) (Jin Yao)
- Dynamicly change verbosity level by pressing 'V' in the 'perf
top/report' hists TUI browser (Alexis Berlemont)
- Implement 'perf trace --delay' in the same fashion as in 'perf
record --delay', to skip sampling workload initialization events
(Alexis Berlemont)
- Make vendor named events case insensitive in 'perf list', i.e.
'perf list LONGEST_LAT' works just the same as 'perf list
longest_lat' (Andi Kleen)
- Add unwinding support for jitdump (Stefano Sanfilippo)
Tooling infrastructure changes:
- Support linking perf with clang and LLVM libraries, initially
statically, but this limitation will be lifted and shared
libraries, when available, will be preferred to the static build,
that should, as with other features, be enabled explicitly (Wang
Nan)
- Add initial support (and perf test entry) for tooling hooks,
starting with 'record_start' and 'record_end', that will have as
its initial user the eBPF infrastructure, where perf_ prefixed
functions will be JITed and run when such hooks are called (Wang
Nan)
- Implement assorted libbpf improvements (Wang Nan)"

The main changes were:
- Rework and generalize the mutex code to remove per arch mutex
primitives. (Peter Zijlstra)
- Add vCPU preemption support: add an interface to query the
preemption status of vCPUs and use it in locking primitives - this
optimizes paravirt performance. (Pan Xinhui, Juergen Gross,
Christian Borntraeger)
- Introduce cpu_relax_yield() and remov cpu_relax_lowlatency() to
clean up and improve the s390 lock yielding machinery and its core
kernel impact. (Christian Borntraeger)
- Micro-optimize mutexes some more. (Waiman Long)
- Reluctantly add the to-be-deprecated mutex_trylock_recursive()
interface on a temporary basis, to give the DRM code more time to
get rid of its locking hacks. Any other users will be NAK-ed on
sight. (We turned off the deprecation warning for the time being to
not pollute the build log.) (Peter Zijlstra)

openrisc: restore all regs on rt_sigreturn
Fix signal handling for when signals are handled as the result of timers
or exceptions, previous code assumed syscalls. This was noticeable with X
crashing where it uses SIGALRM.
This patch restores all regs before returning to userspace via
_resume_userspace instead of via syscall return path.
The rt_sigreturn syscall is more like a context switch than a function
call; it entails a return from one context (the signal handler) to another
(the process in question). For a context switch like this there are
effectively no call-saved regs that remain constant across the transition.

netfilter: nft_counter: rework atomic dump and reset
Dump and reset doesn't work unless cmpxchg64() is used both from packet

Instead, use a percpu seqcount to fetch counters consistently, then
subtract bytes and packets in case a reset was requested.
The cpu that running over the reset code is guaranteed to own this stats
exclusively, we have to turn counters into signed 64bit though so stats
update on reset don't get wrong on underflow.

sched/core: Use load_avg for selecting idlest group
find_idlest_group() only compares the runnable_load_avg when looking
for the least loaded group. But on fork intensive use case like
hackbench where tasks blocked quickly after the fork, this can lead to
selecting the same CPU instead of other CPUs, which have similar
runnable load but a lower load_avg.
When the runnable_load_avg of 2 CPUs are close, we now take into
account the amount of blocked load as a 2nd selection factor. There is
now 3 zones for the runnable_load of the rq:
- [0 .. (runnable_load - imbalance)]:
Select the new rq which has significantly less runnable_load
- [(runnable_load - imbalance) .. (runnable_load + imbalance)]:
The runnable loads are close so we use load_avg to chose
between the 2 rq
- [(runnable_load + imbalance) .. ULONG_MAX]:
Keep the current rq which has significantly less runnable_load
The scale factor that is currently used for comparing runnable_load,
doesn't work well with small value. As an example, the use of a
scaling factor fails as soon as this_runnable_load == 0 because we
always select local rq even if min_runnable_load is only 1, which
doesn't really make sense because they are just the same. So instead
of scaling factor, we use an absolute margin for runnable_load to
detect CPUs with similar runnable_load and we keep using scaling
factor for blocked load.
For use case like hackbench, this enable the scheduler to select
different CPUs during the fork sequence and to spread tasks across the
system.

x86/paravirt: Fix bool return type for PVOP_CALL()
Commit:
3cded4179481 ("x86/paravirt: Optimize native pv_lock_ops.vcpu_is_preempted()")
introduced a paravirt op with bool return type [*]
It turns out that the PVOP_CALL*() macros miscompile when rettype is
bool. Code that looked like:
83 ef 01 sub $0x1,%edi
ff 15 32 a0 d8 00 callq *0xd8a032(%rip) #
ffffffff81e28120 <pv_lock_ops+0x20>
84 c0 test %al,%al
ended up looking like so after PVOP_CALL1() was applied:
83 ef 01 sub $0x1,%edi
48 63 ff movslq %edi,%rdi
ff 14 25 20 81 e2 81 callq *0xffffffff81e28120
48 85 c0 test %rax,%rax
Note how it tests the whole of %rax, even though a typical bool return
function only sets %al, like:
0f 95 c0 setne %al
c3 retq
This is because ____PVOP_CALL() does:
__ret = (rettype)__eax;
and while regular integer type casts truncate the result, a cast to
bool tests for any !0 value. Fix this by explicitly truncating to
sizeof(rettype) before casting.
[*] The actual bug should've been exposed in commit:
446f3dc8cc0a ("locking/core, x86/paravirt: Implement vcpu_is_preempted(cpu) for KVM and Xen guests")
but that didn't properly implement the paravirt call.

net: phy: phy drivers should not set SUPPORTED_[Asym_]Pause
Instead of having individual PHY drivers set the SUPPORTED_Pause and
SUPPORTED_Asym_Pause flags, phylib itself should set those flags,
unless there is a hardware erratum or other special case. During
autonegotiation, the PHYs will determine whether to enable pause
frame support.
Pause frames are a feature that is supported by the MAC. It is the MAC
that generates the frames and that processes them. The PHY can only be
configured to allow them to pass through.
This commit also effectively reverts the recently applied
c7a61319
("net: phy: dp83848: Support ethernet pause frames").
So the new process is:
1) Unless the PHY driver overrides it, phylib sets the SUPPORTED_Pause
and SUPPORTED_AsymPause bits in phydev->supported. This indicates that
the PHY supports pause frames.
2) The MAC driver checks phydev->supported before it calls phy_start().
If (SUPPORTED_Pause | SUPPORTED_AsymPause) is set, then the MAC driver
sets those bits in phydev->advertising, if it wants to enable pause
frame support.
3) When the link state changes, the MAC driver checks phydev->pause and
phydev->asym_pause, If the bits are set, then it enables the corresponding
features in the MAC. The algorithm is:
if (phydev->pause)
The MAC should be programmed to receive and honor
pause frames it receives, i.e. enable receive flow control.
if (phydev->pause != phydev->asym_pause)
The MAC should be programmed to transmit pause
frames when needed, i.e. enable transmit flow control.

====================
net: bridge: fast ageing on topology change
802.1D [1] specifies that the bridges in a network must use a short
value to age out dynamic entries in the Filtering Database for a period,
once a topology change has been communicated by the root bridge.
This patchset fixes this for the in-kernel STP implementation.
Once the topology change flag is set in a net_bridge instance, the
ageing time value is shorten to twice the forward delay used by the
topology.
When the topology change flag is cleared, the ageing time configured for
the bridge is restored.
To accomplish that, a new bridge_ageing_time member is added to the
net_bridge structure, to store the user configured bridge ageing time.
Two helpers are added to offload the ageing time and set the topology
change flag in the net_bridge instance. Then the required logic is added
in the topology change helper if in-kernel STP is used.
This has been tested on the following topology:
+--------------+
| root bridge |
| 1 2 3 4 |
+--+--+--+--+--+
| | | | +--------+
| | | +------| laptop |
| | | +--------+
+--+--+--+-----+
| 1 2 3 |
| slave bridge |
+--------------+
When unplugging/replugging the laptop, the slave bridge (under test)
gets the topology change flag sent by the root bridge, and fast ageing
is triggered on the bridges. Once the topology change timer of the root
bridge expires, the topology change flag is cleared and the configured
ageing time is restored on the bridges.
A similar test has been done between two bridges under test.
When changing the forward delay of the root bridge with:
# echo 3000 > /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/forward_delay
the ageing time correctly changes on both bridges from 300s to 60s while
the TOPOLOGY_CHANGE flag is present.

net: bridge: shorten ageing time on topology change
802.1D [1] specifies that the bridges must use a short value to age out
dynamic entries in the Filtering Database for a period, once a topology
change has been communicated by the root bridge.
Add a bridge_ageing_time member in the net_bridge structure to store the
bridge ageing time value configured by the user (ioctl/netlink/sysfs).
If we are using in-kernel STP, shorten the ageing time value to twice
the forward delay used by the topology when the topology change flag is
set. When the flag is cleared, restore the configured ageing time.

net: bridge: add helper to set topology change
Add a __br_set_topology_change helper to set the topology change value.
This can be later extended to add actions when the topology change flag
is set or cleared.
