mm/page_alloc: fix counting of managed_pages

2021-07-14T15:06:54+00:00

[ Upstream commit f7ec104458e00d27a190348ac3a513f3df3699a4 ]

commit f63661566fad ("mm/page_alloc.c: clear out zone->lowmem_reserve[] if
the zone is empty") clears out zone->lowmem_reserve[] if zone is empty.
But when zone is not empty and sysctl_lowmem_reserve_ratio[i] is set to
zero, zone_managed_pages(zone) is not counted in the managed_pages either.
This is inconsistent with the description of lowmem_reserve, so fix it.

mm/page_alloc: fix memory map initialization for descending nodes

2021-07-14T15:06:06+00:00

commit 122e093c1734361dedb64f65c99b93e28e4624f4 upstream.

On systems with memory nodes sorted in descending order, for instance Dell
Precision WorkStation T5500, the struct pages for higher PFNs and
respectively lower nodes, could be overwritten by the initialization of
struct pages corresponding to the holes in the memory sections.

For example for the below memory layout

[    0.245624] Early memory node ranges
[    0.248496]   node   1: [mem 0x0000000000001000-0x0000000000090fff]
[    0.251376]   node   1: [mem 0x0000000000100000-0x00000000dbdf8fff]
[    0.254256]   node   1: [mem 0x0000000100000000-0x0000001423ffffff]
[    0.257144]   node   0: [mem 0x0000001424000000-0x0000002023ffffff]

the range 0x1424000000 - 0x1428000000 in the beginning of node 0 starts in
the middle of a section and will be considered as a hole during the
initialization of the last section in node 1.

The wrong initialization of the memory map causes panic on boot when
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled.

Reorder loop order of the memory map initialization so that the outer loop
will always iterate over populated memory regions in the ascending order
and the inner loop will select the zone corresponding to the PFN range.

This way initialization of the struct pages for the memory holes will be
always done for the ranges that are actually not populated.

mm/page_alloc: correct return value of populated elements if bulk array is populated

2021-07-07T12:22:32+00:00

commit ff4b2b4014cbffb3d32b22629252f4dc8616b0fe upstream.

Dave Jones reported the following

	This made it into 5.13 final, and completely breaks NFSD for me
	(Serving tcp v3 mounts).  Existing mounts on clients hang, as do
	new mounts from new clients.  Rebooting the server back to rc7
	everything recovers.

The commit b3b64ebd3822 ("mm/page_alloc: do bulk array bounds check after
checking populated elements") returns the wrong value if the array is
already populated which is interpreted as an allocation failure.  Dave
reported this fixes his problem and it also passed a test running dbench
over NFS.

mm/page_alloc: do bulk array bounds check after checking populated elements

2021-06-25T02:40:54+00:00

Dan Carpenter reported the following

  The patch 0f87d9d30f21: "mm/page_alloc: add an array-based interface
  to the bulk page allocator" from Apr 29, 2021, leads to the following
  static checker warning:

        mm/page_alloc.c:5338 __alloc_pages_bulk()
        warn: potentially one past the end of array 'page_array[nr_populated]'

The problem can occur if an array is passed in that is fully populated.
That potentially ends up allocating a single page and storing it past
the end of the array.  This patch returns 0 if the array is fully
populated.

mm/page_alloc: __alloc_pages_bulk(): do bounds check before accessing array

2021-06-25T02:40:54+00:00

In the event that somebody would call this with an already fully
populated page_array, the last loop iteration would do an access beyond
the end of page_array.

It's of course extremely unlikely that would ever be done, but this
triggers my internal static analyzer.  Also, if it really is not
supposed to be invoked this way (i.e., with no NULL entries in
page_array), the nr_populated

mm/page_alloc: fix counting of free pages after take off from buddy

2021-06-05T15:58:11+00:00

Recently we found that there is a lot MemFree left in /proc/meminfo
after do a lot of pages soft offline, it's not quite correct.

Before Oscar's rework of soft offline for free pages [1], if we soft
offline free pages, these pages are left in buddy with HWPoison flag,
and NR_FREE_PAGES is not updated immediately.  So the difference between
NR_FREE_PAGES and real number of available free pages is also even big
at the beginning.

However, with the workload running, when we catch HWPoison page in any
alloc functions subsequently, we will remove it from buddy, meanwhile
update the NR_FREE_PAGES and try again, so the NR_FREE_PAGES will get
more and more closer to the real number of available free pages.
(regardless of unpoison_memory())

Now, for offline free pages, after a successful call
take_page_off_buddy(), the page is no longer belong to buddy allocator,
and will not be used any more, but we missed accounting NR_FREE_PAGES in
this situation, and there is no chance to be updated later.

Do update in take_page_off_buddy() like rmqueue() does, but avoid double
counting if some one already set_migratetype_isolate() on the page.

mm/memory_hotplug: remove broken locking of zone PCP structures during hot remove

2021-05-05T18:27:26+00:00

zone_pcp_reset allegedly protects against a race with drain_pages using
local_irq_save but this is bogus.  local_irq_save only operates on the
local CPU.  If memory hotplug is running on CPU A and drain_pages is
running on CPU B, disabling IRQs on CPU A does not affect CPU B and
offers no protection.

This patch deletes IRQ disable/enable on the grounds that IRQs protect
nothing and assumes the existing hotplug paths guarantees the PCP cannot
be used after zone_pcp_enable().  That should be the case already
because all the pages have been freed and there is no page to put on the
PCP lists.
