mm/mempolicy.c: fix error handling in set_mempolicy and mbind.

2017-04-12T10:41:15+00:00

commit cf01fb9985e8deb25ccf0ea54d916b8871ae0e62 upstream.

In the case that compat_get_bitmap fails we do not want to copy the
bitmap to the user as it will contain uninitialized stack data and leak
sensitive data.

mm: workingset: fix premature shadow node shrinking with cgroups

2017-04-08T07:30:36+00:00

commit 0cefabdaf757a6455d75f00cb76874e62703ed18 upstream.

Commit 0a6b76dd23fa ("mm: workingset: make shadow node shrinker memcg
aware") enabled cgroup-awareness in the shadow node shrinker, but forgot
to also enable cgroup-awareness in the list_lru the shadow nodes sit on.

Consequently, all shadow nodes are sitting on a global (per-NUMA node)
list, while the shrinker applies the limits according to the amount of
cache in the cgroup its shrinking.  The result is excessive pressure on
the shadow nodes from cgroups that have very little cache.

Enable memcg-mode on the shadow node LRUs, such that per-cgroup limits
are applied to per-cgroup lists.

mm, hugetlb: use pte_present() instead of pmd_present() in follow_huge_pmd()

    Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
    Kernel Offset: disabled

This bug is triggered when pmd_present() returns true for non-present
hugetlb, so fixing the present check in follow_huge_pmd() prevents it.
Using pmd_present() to determine present/non-present for hugetlb is not
correct, because pmd_present() checks multiple bits (not only
_PAGE_PRESENT) for historical reason and it can misjudge hugetlb state.

commit 553af430e7c981e6e8fa5007c5b7b5773acc63dd upstream.

corresponding node counter.

slub: move synchronize_sched out of slab_mutex on shrink

2017-03-22T11:43:38+00:00

[ Upstream commit 89e364db71fb5e7fc8d93228152abfa67daf35fa ]

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: do not call mem_cgroup_free() from within mem_cgroup_alloc()

commit 40e952f9d687928b32db20226f085ae660a7237c upstream.

thp: fix another corner case of munlock() vs. THPs

2017-03-15T02:02:52+00:00

commit 6ebb4a1b848fe75323135f93e72c78f8780fd268 upstream.

The following test case triggers BUG() in munlock_vma_pages_range():

	int main(int argc, char *argv[])
	{
		int fd;

		system("mount -t tmpfs -o huge=always none /mnt");
		fd = open("/mnt/test", O_CREAT | O_RDWR);
		ftruncate(fd, 4UL << 20);
		mmap(NULL, 4UL << 20, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
				MAP_SHARED | MAP_FIXED | MAP_LOCKED, fd, 0);
		mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
				MAP_SHARED | MAP_LOCKED, fd, 0);
		munlockall();
		return 0;
	}

The second mmap() create PTE-mapping of the first huge page in file.  It
makes kernel munlock the page as we never keep PTE-mapped page mlocked.

On munlockall() when we handle vma created by the first mmap(),
munlock_vma_page() returns page_mask == 0, as the page is not mlocked
anymore.  On next iteration follow_page_mask() return tail page, but
page_mask is HPAGE_NR_PAGES - 1.  It makes us skip to the first tail
page of the next huge page and step on
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PageMlocked(page)).

The fix is not use the page_mask from follow_page_mask() at all.  It has
no use for us.

mm, vmscan: consider eligible zones in get_scan_count

2017-03-12T05:41:44+00:00

commit 71ab6cfe88dcf9f6e6a65eb85cf2bda20a257682 upstream.

get_scan_count() considers the whole node LRU size when

 - doing SCAN_FILE due to many page cache inactive pages
 - calculating the number of pages to scan

In both cases this might lead to unexpected behavior especially on 32b
systems where we can expect lowmem memory pressure very often.

A large highmem zone can easily distort SCAN_FILE heuristic because
there might be only few file pages from the eligible zones on the node
lru and we would still enforce file lru scanning which can lead to
trashing while we could still scan anonymous pages.

The later use of lruvec_lru_size can be problematic as well.  Especially
when there are not many pages from the eligible zones.  We would have to
skip over many pages to find anything to reclaim but shrink_node_memcg
would only reduce the remaining number to scan by SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX at
maximum.  Therefore we can end up going over a large LRU many times
without actually having chance to reclaim much if anything at all.  The
closer we are out of memory on lowmem zone the worse the problem will
be.

Fix this by filtering out all the ineligible zones when calculating the
lru size for both paths and consider only sc->reclaim_idx zones.

The patch would need to be tweaked a bit to apply to 4.10 and older but
I will do that as soon as it hits the Linus tree in the next merge
window.
