mm/memory-failure.c: replace "MCE" with "Memory failure"

2016-05-21T00:58:30+00:00

HWPoison was specific to some particular x86 platforms.  And it is often
seen as high level machine check handler.  And therefore, 'MCE' is used
for the format prefix of printk().  However, 'PowerNV' has also used
HWPoison for handling memory errors[1], so 'MCE' is no longer suitable
to memory_failure.c.

Additionally, 'MCE' and 'Memory failure' have different context.  The
former belongs to exception context and the latter belongs to process
context.  Furthermore, HWPoison can also be used for off-lining those
sub-health pages that do not trigger any machine check exception.

This patch aims to replace 'MCE' with a more appropriate prefix.

mm/memory-failure: fix race with compound page split/merge

2016-04-29T02:34:04+00:00

get_hwpoison_page() must recheck relation between head and tail pages.

n-horiguchi said: without this recheck, the race causes kernel to pin an
irrelevant page, and finally makes kernel crash for refcount mismatch.

mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros

2016-04-04T17:41:08+00:00

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

This promise never materialized.  And unlikely will.

We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE.  And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.

Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.

Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special.  They are
not.

The changes are pretty straight-forward:

 -  << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> ;

 -  >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> ;

 - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};

 - page_cache_get() -> get_page();

 - page_cache_release() -> put_page();

This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below.  For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.

The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.

There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach.  I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch.  Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

mm: convert printk(KERN_ to pr_

2016-03-17T22:09:34+00:00

Most of the mm subsystem uses pr_ so make it consistent.

Miscellanea:

 - Realign arguments
 - Add missing newline to format
 - kmemleak-test.c has a "kmemleak: " prefix added to the
   "Kmemleak testing" logging message via pr_fmt

mm: soft-offline: exit with failure for non anonymous thp

2016-01-16T01:56:32+00:00

Currently memory_failure() doesn't handle non anonymous thp case,
because we can hardly expect the error handling to be successful, and it
can just hit some corner case which results in BUG_ON or something
severe like that.  This is also the case for soft offline code, so let's
make it in the same way.

Orignal code has a MF_COUNT_INCREASED check before put_hwpoison_page(),
but it's unnecessary because get_any_page() is already called when
running on this code, which takes a refcount of the target page
regardress of the flag.  So this patch also removes it.

mm: hwpoison: adjust for new thp refcounting

2016-01-16T01:56:32+00:00

Some mm-related BUG_ON()s could trigger from hwpoison code due to recent
changes in thp refcounting rule.  This patch fixes them up.

In the new refcounting, we no longer use tail->_mapcount to keep tail's
refcount, and thereby we can simplify get/put_hwpoison_page().

And another change is that tail's refcount is not transferred to the raw
page during thp split (more precisely, in new rule we don't take
refcount on tail page any more.) So when we need thp split, we have to
transfer the refcount properly to the 4kB soft-offlined page before
migration.

thp split code goes into core code only when precheck
(total_mapcount(head) == page_count(head) - 1) passes to avoid useless
split, where we assume that one refcount is held by the caller of thp
split and the others are taken via mapping.  To meet this assumption,
this patch moves thp split part in soft_offline_page() after
get_any_page().

mm: soft-offline: check return value in second __get_any_page() call

2016-01-16T01:56:32+00:00

I saw the following BUG_ON triggered in a testcase where a process calls

The root cause resides in get_any_page() which retries to get a refcount
of the page to be soft-offlined.  This function calls
put_hwpoison_page(), expecting that the target page is putback to LRU
list.  But it can be also freed to buddy.  So the second check need to
care about such case.

thp, mm: split_huge_page(): caller need to lock page

2016-01-16T01:56:32+00:00

We're going to use migration entries instead of compound_lock() to
stabilize page refcounts.  Setup and remove migration entries require
page to be locked.

Some of split_huge_page() callers already have the page locked.  Let's
require everybody to lock the page before calling split_huge_page().
