<title>mm: writeback: use exact memcg dirty counts</title>

<id>0b3d6e6f2dd0a7b697b1aa8c167265908940624b</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit a983b5ebee57 ("mm: memcontrol: fix excessive complexity in
memory.stat reporting") memcg dirty and writeback counters are managed
as:

 1) per-memcg per-cpu values in range of [-32..32]

 2) per-memcg atomic counter

When a per-cpu counter cannot fit in [-32..32] it's flushed to the
atomic.  Stat readers only check the atomic.  Thus readers such as
balance_dirty_pages() may see a nontrivial error margin: 32 pages per
cpu.

Assuming 100 cpus:
   4k x86 page_size:  13 MiB error per memcg
  64k ppc page_size: 200 MiB error per memcg

Considering that dirty+writeback are used together for some decisions the
errors double.

This inaccuracy can lead to undeserved oom kills.  One nasty case is
when all per-cpu counters hold positive values offsetting an atomic
negative value (i.e.  per_cpu[*]=32, atomic=n_cpu*-32).
balance_dirty_pages() only consults the atomic and does not consider
throttling the next n_cpu*32 dirty pages.  If the file_lru is in the
13..200 MiB range then there's absolutely no dirty throttling, which
burdens vmscan with only dirty+writeback pages thus resorting to oom
kill.

It could be argued that tiny containers are not supported, but it's more
subtle.  It's the amount the space available for file lru that matters.
If a container has memory.max-200MiB of non reclaimable memory, then it
will also suffer such oom kills on a 100 cpu machine.

The following test reliably ooms without this patch.  This patch avoids
oom kills.

  $ cat test
  mount -t cgroup2 none /dev/cgroup
  cd /dev/cgroup
  echo +io +memory &gt; cgroup.subtree_control
  mkdir test
  cd test
  echo 10M &gt; memory.max
  (echo $BASHPID &gt; cgroup.procs &amp;&amp; exec /memcg-writeback-stress /foo)
  (echo $BASHPID &gt; cgroup.procs &amp;&amp; exec dd if=/dev/zero of=/foo bs=2M count=100)

  $ cat memcg-writeback-stress.c
  /*
   * Dirty pages from all but one cpu.
   * Clean pages from the non dirtying cpu.
   * This is to stress per cpu counter imbalance.
   * On a 100 cpu machine:
   * - per memcg per cpu dirty count is 32 pages for each of 99 cpus
   * - per memcg atomic is -99*32 pages
   * - thus the complete dirty limit: sum of all counters 0
   * - balance_dirty_pages() only sees atomic count -99*32 pages, which
   *   it max()s to 0.
   * - So a workload can dirty -99*32 pages before balance_dirty_pages()
   *   cares.

  		err(1, "close(%s)", output);
  	free(buf);
  }

Make balance_dirty_pages() and wb_over_bg_thresh() work harder to
collect exact per memcg counters.  This avoids the aforementioned oom
kills.

This does not affect the overhead of memory.stat, which still reads the
single atomic counter.

Why not use percpu_counter? memcg already handles cpus going offline, so
no need for that overhead from percpu_counter.  And the percpu_counter
spinlocks are more heavyweight than is required.

It probably also makes sense to use exact dirty and writeback counters
in memcg oom reports.  But that is saved for later.

<title>mm/huge_memory.c: fix modifying of page protection by insert_pfn_pmd()</title>

With some architectures like ppc64, set_pmd_at() cannot cope with a
situation where there is already some (different) valid entry present.

Use pmdp_set_access_flags() instead to modify the pfn which is built to
deal with modifying existing PMD entries.

This is similar to commit cae85cb8add3 ("mm/memory.c: fix modifying of
page protection by insert_pfn()")

We also do similar update w.r.t insert_pfn_pud eventhough ppc64 don't
support pud pfn entries now.

Without this patch we also see the below message in kernel log "BUG:
non-zero pgtables_bytes on freeing mm:"

Commit 2d4f567103ff ("KVM: PPC: Introduce kvm_tmp framework") adds
kvm_tmp[] into the .bss section and then free the rest of unused spaces
back to the page allocator.

kernel_init
  kvm_guest_init
    kvm_free_tmp
      free_reserved_area
        free_unref_page
          free_unref_page_prepare

With DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y, it will unmap those pages from kernel.  As the
result, kmemleak scan will trigger a panic when it scans the .bss
section with unmapped pages.

This patch creates dedicated kmemleak objects for the .data, .bss and
potentially .data..ro_after_init sections to allow partial freeing via
the kmemleak_free_part() in the powerpc kvm_free_tmp() function.

Running LTP oom01 in a tight loop or memory stress testing put the system
in a low-memory situation could triggers random memory corruption like
page flag corruption below due to in fast_isolate_freepages(), if
isolation fails, next_search_order() does not abort the search immediately
could lead to improper accesses.

Running LTP oom01 in a tight loop or memory stress testing put the system
in a low-memory situation could triggers random memory corruption like
page flag corruption below due to in fast_isolate_freepages(), if
isolation fails, next_search_order() does not abort the search immediately
could lead to improper accesses.

what pageblocks to clear skip hints").  The problem is that the patch in
question was sloppy with respect to the handling of zone boundaries.  In
some instances, it was possible for PFNs outside of a zone to be examined
and if those were not properly initialised or poisoned then it would
trigger the VM_BUG_ON.  This patch corrects the zone boundary issues when
resetting pageblock skip hints and Mikhail reported that the bug did not
trigger after 30 hours of testing.

<title>mm/migrate.c: add missing flush_dcache_page for non-mapped page migrate</title>

<id>d2b2c6dd227ba5b8a802858748ec9a780cb75b47</id>
<content type='text'>
Our MIPS 1004Kc SoCs were seeing random userspace crashes with SIGILL
and SIGSEGV that could not be traced back to a userspace code bug.  They
had all the magic signs of an I/D cache coherency issue.

Now recently we noticed that the /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory interface
was quite efficient at provoking this class of userspace crashes.

Studying the code in mm/migrate.c there is a distinction made between
migrating a page that is mapped at the instant of migration and one that
is not mapped.  Our problem turned out to be the non-mapped pages.

For the non-mapped page the code performs a copy of the page content and
all relevant meta-data of the page without doing the required D-cache
maintenance.  This leaves dirty data in the D-cache of the CPU and on
the 1004K cores this data is not visible to the I-cache.  A subsequent
page-fault that triggers a mapping of the page will happily serve the
process with potentially stale code.

What about ARM then, this bug should have seen greater exposure? Well
ARM became immune to this flaw back in 2010, see commit c01778001a4f
("ARM: 6379/1: Assume new page cache pages have dirty D-cache").

My proposed fix moves the D-cache maintenance inside move_to_new_page to
make it common for both cases.

When start_isolate_page_range() returned -EBUSY in __offline_pages(), it
calls memory_notify(MEM_CANCEL_OFFLINE, &amp;arg) with an uninitialized
"arg".  As the result, it triggers warnings below.  Also, it is only
necessary to notify MEM_CANCEL_OFFLINE after MEM_GOING_OFFLINE.

<title>mm/debug.c: fix __dump_page when mapping-&gt;host is not set</title>

<id>5ae2efb1dea9f537453e841714e3ee2757595aec</id>
<content type='text'>
While debugging something, I added a dump_page() into do_swap_page(),
and I got the splat from below.  The issue happens when dereferencing
mapping-&gt;host in __dump_page():

  ...
  else if (mapping) {
	pr_warn("%ps ", mapping-&gt;a_ops);
	if (mapping-&gt;host-&gt;i_dentry.first) {
		struct dentry *dentry;
		dentry = container_of(mapping-&gt;host-&gt;i_dentry.first, struct dentry, d_u.d_alias);
		pr_warn("name:\"%pd\" ", dentry);
	}
  }
  ...

Swap address space does not contain an inode information, and so
mapping-&gt;host equals NULL.

Although the dump_page() call was added artificially into
do_swap_page(), I am not sure if we can hit this from any other path, so
it looks worth fixing it.  We can easily do that by checking
mapping-&gt;host first.
