commit 6e2b7044c199229a3d20cefbd3184968238c4184 upstream.

Compaction always operates on pages from a single given zone when
isolating both pages to migrate and freepages.  Pageblock boundaries are
intersected with zone boundaries to be safe in case zone starts or ends in
the middle of pageblock.  The use of pageblock_pfn_to_page() protects
against non-contiguous pageblocks.

The functions fast_isolate_freepages() and fast_isolate_around() don't
currently protect the fast freepage isolation thoroughly enough against
these corner cases, and can result in freepage isolation operate outside
of zone boundaries:

 - in fast_isolate_freepages() if we get a pfn from the first pageblock
   of a zone that starts in the middle of that pageblock, 'highest' can
   be a pfn outside of the zone.

   If we fail to isolate anything in this function, we may then call
   fast_isolate_around() on a pfn outside of the zone and there
   effectively do a set_pageblock_skip(page_to_pfn(highest)) which may
   currently hit a VM_BUG_ON() in some configurations

 - fast_isolate_around() checks only the zone end boundary and not
   beginning, nor that the pageblock is contiguous (with
   pageblock_pfn_to_page()) so it's possible that we end up calling
   isolate_freepages_block() on a range of pfn's from two different
   zones and end up e.g. isolating freepages under the wrong zone's
   lock.

This patch should fix the above issues.

[ Upstream commit 15d28d0d11609c7a4f217b3d85e26456d9beb134 ]

In the fast_find_migrateblock(), it iterates ocer the freelist to find the
proper pageblock.  But there are some misbehaviors.

First, if the page we found is equal to cc-&gt;migrate_pfn, it is considered
that we didn't find a suitable pageblock.  Secondly, if the loop was
terminated because order is less than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER, it could be
considered that we found a suitable one.  Thirdly, if the skip bit is set
on the page block and we goto continue, it doesn't check nr_scanned.
Fourthly, if the page block's skip bit is set, it checks that page block
is the last of list, which is unnecessary.

<title>mm, compaction: move high_pfn to the for loop scope</title>

commit 74e21484e40bb8ce0f9828bbfe1c9fc9b04249c6 upstream.

In fast_isolate_freepages, high_pfn will be used if a prefered one (ie
PFN &gt;= low_fn) not found.

But the high_pfn is not reset before searching an free area, so when it
was used as freepage, it may from another free area searched before.  As
a result move_freelist_head(freelist, freepage) will have unexpected
behavior (eg corrupt the MOVABLE freelist)

The issue was reported on an smart phone product with 6GB ram and 3GB

This patch fixes the issue by reset high_pfn before searching each free

move_freelist_head in fast_isolate_freepages().

In isolate_migratepages_block, if we have too many isolated pages and
nr_migratepages is not zero, we should try to migrate what we have
without wasting time on isolating.

In theory it's possible that multiple parallel compactions will cause
too_many_isolated() to become true even if each has isolated less than
COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX, and loop forever in the while loop.  Bailing
immediately prevents that.

<title>mm/compaction: count pages and stop correctly during page isolation</title>

In isolate_migratepages_block, when cc-&gt;alloc_contig is true, we are
able to isolate compound pages.  But nr_migratepages and nr_isolated did
not count compound pages correctly, causing us to isolate more pages
than we thought.

So count compound pages as the number of base pages they contain.
Otherwise, we might be trapped in too_many_isolated while loop, since
the actual isolated pages can go up to COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX*512=16384,
where COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX is 32, since we stop isolation after
cc-&gt;nr_migratepages reaches to COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX.

In addition, after we fix the issue above, cc-&gt;nr_migratepages could
never be equal to COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX if compound pages are isolated,
thus page isolation could not stop as we intended.  Change the isolation
stop condition to '&gt;='.

The issue can be triggered as follows:

In a system with 16GB memory and an 8GB CMA region reserved by
hugetlb_cma, if we first allocate 10GB THPs and mlock them (so some THPs
are allocated in the CMA region and mlocked), reserving 6 1GB hugetlb
pages via /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/nr_hugepages will
get stuck (looping in too_many_isolated function) until we kill either
task.  With the patch applied, oom will kill the application with 10GB
THPs and let hugetlb page reservation finish.

The current page_order() can only be called on pages in the buddy
allocator.  For compound pages, you have to use compound_order().  This is
confusing and led to a bug, so rename page_order() to buddy_order().

The same code can work both for 'zone-&gt;compact_considered &gt; defer_limit'
and 'zone-&gt;compact_considered &gt;= defer_limit'.  In the latter there is one
branch less which is more effective considering performance.

The thp prefix is more frequently used than hpage and we should be
consistent between the various functions.

There is no compact_defer_limit. It should be compact_defer_shift in
use. and add compact_order_failed explanation.
