* mm: oom: let oom_reap_task and exit_mmap run concurrentlyAndrea Arcangeli2017-09-061-6/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is purely required because exit_aio() may block and exit_mmap() may never start, if the oom_reap_task cannot start running on a mm with mm_users == 0. At the same time if the OOM reaper doesn't wait at all for the memory of the current OOM candidate to be freed by exit_mmap->unmap_vmas, it would generate a spurious OOM kill. If it wasn't because of the exit_aio or similar blocking functions in the last mmput, it would be enough to change the oom_reap_task() in the case it finds mm_users == 0, to wait for a timeout or to wait for __mmput to set MMF_OOM_SKIP itself, but it's not just exit_mmap the problem here so the concurrency of exit_mmap and oom_reap_task is apparently warranted. It's a non standard runtime, exit_mmap() runs without mmap_sem, and oom_reap_task runs with the mmap_sem for reading as usual (kind of MADV_DONTNEED). The race between the two is solved with a combination of tsk_is_oom_victim() (serialized by task_lock) and MMF_OOM_SKIP (serialized by a dummy down_write/up_write cycle on the same lines of the ksm_exit method). If the oom_reap_task() may be running concurrently during exit_mmap, exit_mmap will wait it to finish in down_write (before taking down mm structures that would make the oom_reap_task fail with use after free). If exit_mmap comes first, oom_reap_task() will skip the mm if MMF_OOM_SKIP is already set and in turn all memory is already freed and furthermore the mm data structures may already have been taken down by free_pgtables.

* locking/lockdep: Rework FS_RECLAIM annotationPeter Zijlstra2017-08-101-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A while ago someone, and I cannot find the email just now, asked if we could not implement the RECLAIM_FS inversion stuff with a 'fake' lock like we use for other things like workqueues etc. I think this should be possible which allows reducing the 'irq' states and will reduce the amount of __bfs() lookups we do. Removing the 1 IRQ state results in 4 less __bfs() walks per dependency, improving lockdep performance. And by moving this annotation out of the lockdep code it becomes easier for the mm people to extend.

* mm: introduce memalloc_noreclaim_{save,restore}Vlastimil Babka2017-05-081-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous patch ("mm: prevent potential recursive reclaim due to clearing PF_MEMALLOC") has shown that simply setting and clearing PF_MEMALLOC in current->flags can result in wrongly clearing a pre-existing PF_MEMALLOC flag and potentially lead to recursive reclaim. Let's introduce helpers that support proper nesting by saving the previous stat of the flag, similar to the existing memalloc_noio_* and memalloc_nofs_* helpers. Convert existing setting/clearing of PF_MEMALLOC within mm to the new helpers. There are no known issues with the converted code, but the change makes it more robust.

* mm: introduce memalloc_nofs_{save,restore} APIMichal Hocko2017-05-031-3/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GFP_NOFS context is used for the following 5 reasons currently: - to prevent from deadlocks when the lock held by the allocation context would be needed during the memory reclaim - to prevent from stack overflows during the reclaim because the allocation is performed from a deep context already - to prevent lockups when the allocation context depends on other reclaimers to make a forward progress indirectly - just in case because this would be safe from the fs POV - silence lockdep false positives Unfortunately overuse of this allocation context brings some problems to the MM. Memory reclaim is much weaker (especially during heavy FS metadata workloads), OOM killer cannot be invoked because the MM layer doesn't have enough information about how much memory is freeable by the FS layer. In many cases it is far from clear why the weaker context is even used and so it might be used unnecessarily. We would like to get rid of those as much as possible. One way to do that is to use the flag in scopes rather than isolated cases. Such a scope is declared when really necessary, tracked per task and all the allocation requests from within the context will simply inherit the GFP_NOFS semantic. Not only this is easier to understand and maintain because there are much less problematic contexts than specific allocation requests, this also helps code paths where FS layer interacts with other layers (e.g. crypto, security modules, MM etc...) and there is no easy way to convey the allocation context between the layers. Introduce memalloc_nofs_{save,restore} API to control the scope of GFP_NOFS allocation context. This is basically copying memalloc_noio_{save,restore} API we have for other restricted allocation context GFP_NOIO. The PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS flag already exists and it is just an alias for PF_FSTRANS which has been xfs specific until recently. There are no more PF_FSTRANS users anymore so let's just drop it. PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS is now checked in the MM layer and drops __GFP_FS implicitly same as PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO drops __GFP_IO. memalloc_noio_flags is renamed to current_gfp_context because it now cares about both PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS and PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO contexts. Xfs code paths preserve their semantic. kmem_flags_convert() doesn't need to evaluate the flag anymore. This patch shouldn't introduce any functional changes. Let's hope that filesystems will drop direct GFP_NOFS (resp. ~__GFP_FS) usage as much as possible and only use a properly documented memalloc_nofs_{save,restore} checkpoints where they are appropriate.
