b25ed609d0 cgroup: remove CGRP_WAIT_ON_RMDIR, cgroup_exclude_rmdir() and cgroup_release_and_wakeup_rmdir()
CGRP_WAIT_ON_RMDIR is another kludge which was added to make cgroup
destruction rollback somewhat working.  cgroup_rmdir() used to drain
CSS references and CGRP_WAIT_ON_RMDIR and the associated waitqueue and
helpers were used to allow the task performing rmdir to wait for the
next relevant event.

Unfortunately, the wait is visible to controllers too and the
mechanism got exposed to memcg by 887032670d ("cgroup avoid permanent
sleep at rmdir").

Now that the draining and retries are gone, CGRP_WAIT_ON_RMDIR is
unnecessary.  Remove it and all the mechanisms supporting it.  Note
that memcontrol.c changes are essentially revert of 887032670d
("cgroup avoid permanent sleep at rmdir").

e93160803f cgroup: kill CSS_REMOVED
CSS_REMOVED is one of the several contortions which were necessary to
support css reference draining on cgroup removal.  All css->refcnts
which need draining should be deactivated and verified to equal zero
atomically w.r.t. css_tryget().  If any one isn't zero, all refcnts
needed to be re-activated and css_tryget() shouldn't fail in the
process.

This was achieved by letting css_tryget() busy-loop until either the
refcnt is reactivated (failed removal attempt) or CSS_REMOVED is set
(committing to removal).

Now that css refcnt draining is no longer used, there's no need for
atomic rollback mechanism.  css_tryget() simply can look at the
reference count and fail if it's deactivated - it's never getting
re-activated.

This patch removes CSS_REMOVED and updates __css_tryget() to fail if
the refcnt is deactivated.  As deactivation and removal are a single
step now, they no longer need to be protected against css_tryget()
happening from irq context.  Remove local_irq_disable/enable() from
cgroup_rmdir().

Note that this removes css_is_removed() whose only user is VM_BUG_ON()
in memcontrol.c.  We can replace it with a check on the refcnt but
given that the only use case is a debug assert, I think it's better to
simply unexport it.

v2: Comment updated and explanation on local_irq_disable/enable()
    added per Michal Hocko.

789306e5ad mm/slob: use min_t() to compare ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN
The definition of ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN is architecture dependent
and can be either of type size_t or int. Comparing that value
with ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN can cause harmless warnings on
platforms where they are different. Since both are always
small positive integer numbers, using the size_t type to compare
them is safe and gets rid of the warning.

Without this patch, building ARM collie_defconfig results in:

d8843922fb slab: Ignore internal flags in cache creation
Some flags are used internally by the allocators for management
purposes. One example of that is the CFLGS_OFF_SLAB flag that slab uses
to mark that the metadata for that cache is stored outside of the slab.

No cache should ever pass those as a creation flags. We can just ignore
this bit if it happens to be passed (such as when duplicating a cache in
the kmem memcg patches).

Because such flags can vary from allocator to allocator, we allow them
to make their own decisions on that, defining SLAB_AVAILABLE_FLAGS with
all flags that are valid at creation time.  Allocators that doesn't have
any specific flag requirement should define that to mean all flags.

Common code will mask out all flags not belonging to that set.

8cf9864b13 mm/slob: Use free_page instead of put_page for page-size kmalloc allocations
When freeing objects, the slob allocator currently free empty pages
calling __free_pages(). However, page-size kmallocs are disposed
using put_page() instead.

It makes no sense to call put_page() for kernel pages that are provided
by the object allocator, so we shouldn't be doing this ourselves.

This is based on:

999d8795d4 mm/slob: Drop usage of page->private for storing page-sized allocations
This field was being used to store size allocation so it could be
retrieved by ksize(). However, it is a bad practice to not mark a page
as a slab page and then use fields for special purposes.
There is no need to store the allocated size and
ksize() can simply return PAGE_SIZE << compound_order(page).

2ef37d3fe4 memcg: Simplify mem_cgroup_force_empty_list error handling
mem_cgroup_force_empty_list currently tries to remove all pages from
the given LRU. To prevent from temoporary failures (EBUSY returned by
mem_cgroup_move_parent) it uses a margin to the current LRU pages and
returns the true if there are still some pages left on the list.

If we consider that mem_cgroup_move_parent fails only when it is racing
with somebody else removing (uncharging) the page or when the page is
migrated then it is obvious that all those failures are only temporal
and so we can safely retry later.
Let's get rid of the safety margin and make the loop really wait for
the empty LRU. The caller should still make sure that all charges have
been removed from the res_counter because mem_cgroup_replace_page_cache
might add a page to the LRU after the list_empty check (it doesn't touch
res_counter though).
This catches most of the cases except for shmem which might call
mem_cgroup_replace_page_cache with a page which is not charged and on
the LRU yet but this was the case also without this patch. In order to
fix this we need a guarantee that try_get_mem_cgroup_from_page falls
back to the current mm's cgroup so it needs css_tryget to fail. This
will be fixed up in a later patch because it needs a help from cgroup
core (pre_destroy has to be called after css is cleared).

Although mem_cgroup_pre_destroy can still fail (if a new task or a new
sub-group appears) there is no reason to retry pre_destroy callback from
the cgroup core. This means that __DEPRECATED_clear_css_refs has lost
its meaning and it can be removed.

Changes since v2
- remove __DEPRECATED_clear_css_refs

Changes since v1
- use kerndoc
- be more specific about mem_cgroup_move_parent possible failures

d842301181 memcg: root_cgroup cannot reach mem_cgroup_move_parent
The root cgroup cannot be destroyed so we never hit it down the
mem_cgroup_pre_destroy path and mem_cgroup_force_empty_write shouldn't
even try to do anything if called for the root.

This means that mem_cgroup_move_parent doesn't have to bother with the
root cgroup and it can assume it can always move charges upwards.

c26251f9f0 memcg: split mem_cgroup_force_empty into reclaiming and reparenting parts
mem_cgroup_force_empty did two separate things depending on free_all
parameter from the very beginning. It either reclaimed as many pages as
possible and moved the rest to the parent or just moved charges to the
parent. The first variant is used as memory.force_empty callback while
the later is used from the mem_cgroup_pre_destroy.

The whole games around gotos are far from being nice and there is no
reason to keep those two functions inside one. Let's split them and
also move the responsibility for css reference counting to their callers
to make to code easier.

This patch doesn't have any functional changes.

ef5d437f71 mm: fix XFS oops due to dirty pages without buffers on s390
On s390 any write to a page (even from kernel itself) sets architecture
specific page dirty bit.  Thus when a page is written to via buffered
write, HW dirty bit gets set and when we later map and unmap the page,
page_remove_rmap() finds the dirty bit and calls set_page_dirty().

Dirtying of a page which shouldn't be dirty can cause all sorts of
problems to filesystems.  The bug we observed in practice is that
buffers from the page get freed, so when the page gets later marked as
dirty and writeback writes it, XFS crashes due to an assertion
BUG_ON(!PagePrivate(page)) in page_buffers() called from
xfs_count_page_state().

Similar problem can also happen when zero_user_segment() call from
xfs_vm_writepage() (or block_write_full_page() for that matter) set the
hardware dirty bit during writeback, later buffers get freed, and then
page unmapped.

Fix the issue by ignoring s390 HW dirty bit for page cache pages of
mappings with mapping_cap_account_dirty().  This is safe because for
such mappings when a page gets marked as writeable in PTE it is also
marked dirty in do_wp_page() or do_page_fault().  When the dirty bit is
cleared by clear_page_dirty_for_io(), the page gets writeprotected in
page_mkclean().  So pagecache page is writeable if and only if it is
dirty.

Thanks to Hugh Dickins for pointing out mapping has to have
mapping_cap_account_dirty() for things to work and proposing a cleaned
up variant of the patch.

The patch has survived about two hours of running fsx-linux on tmpfs
while heavily swapping and several days of running on out build machines
where the original problem was triggered.

1b4f59e356 slub: Commonize slab_cache field in struct page
Right now, slab and slub have fields in struct page to derive which
cache a page belongs to, but they do it slightly differently.

slab uses a field called slab_cache, that lives in the third double
word. slub, uses a field called "slab", living outside of the
doublewords area.

Ideally, we could use the same field for this. Since slub heavily makes
use of the doubleword region, there isn't really much room to move
slub's slab_cache field around. Since slab does not have such strict
placement restrictions, we can move it outside the doubleword area.

The naming used by slab, "slab_cache", is less confusing, and it is
preferred over slub's generic "slab".

0db63d7e25 mm: compaction: correct the nr_strict va isolated check for CMA
Thierry reported that the "iron out" patch for isolate_freepages_block()
had problems due to the strict check being too strict with "mm:
compaction: Iron out isolate_freepages_block() and
isolate_freepages_range() -fix1".  It's possible that more pages than
necessary are isolated but the check still fails and I missed that this
fix was not picked up before RC1.  This same problem has been identified
in 3.7-RC1 by Tony Prisk and should be addressed by the following patch.

deb521c44f remap_file_pages: correctly handle the case of a NULL vm_ops pointer
In commit 0b173bc4daa8 ("mm: kill vma flag VM_CAN_NONLINEAR") we
replaced the VM_CAN_NONLINEAR test with checking whether the mapping has
a '->remap_pages()' vm operation, but there is no guarantee that there
it even has a vm_ops pointer at all.

Add the appropriate test for NULL vm_ops.

837d678dc2 slub: remove one code path and reduce lock contention in __slab_free()
When we try to free object, there is some of case that we need
to take a node lock. This is the necessary step for preventing a race.
After taking a lock, then we try to cmpxchg_double_slab().
But, there is a possible scenario that cmpxchg_double_slab() is failed
with taking a lock. Following example explains it.

CPU A               CPU B
need lock
...                 need lock
...                 lock!!
lock..but spin      free success
spin...             unlock
lock!!
free fail

In this case, retry with taking a lock is occured in CPU A.
I think that in this case for CPU A,
"release a lock first, and re-take a lock if necessary" is preferable way.

There are two reasons for this.

First, this makes __slab_free()'s logic somehow simple.
With this patch, 'was_frozen = 1' is "always" handled without taking a lock.
So we can remove one code path.

Second, it may reduce lock contention.
When we do retrying, status of slab is already changed,
so we don't need a lock anymore in almost every case.
"release a lock first, and re-take a lock if necessary" policy is
helpful to this.

32f8516a8c mm, mempolicy: fix printing stack contents in numa_maps
When reading /proc/pid/numa_maps, it's possible to return the contents of
the stack where the mempolicy string should be printed if the policy gets
freed from beneath us.

This happens because mpol_to_str() may return an error the
stack-allocated buffer is then printed without ever being stored.

There are two possible error conditions in mpol_to_str():

 - if the buffer allocated is insufficient for the string to be stored,
   and

 - if the mempolicy has an invalid mode.

The first error condition is not triggered in any of the callers to
mpol_to_str(): at least 50 bytes is always allocated on the stack and this
is sufficient for the string to be written.  A future patch should convert
this into BUILD_BUG_ON() since we know the maximum strlen possible, but
that's not -rc material.

The second error condition is possible if a race occurs in dropping a
reference to a task's mempolicy causing it to be freed during the read().
The slab poison value is then used for the mode and mpol_to_str() returns
-EINVAL.

This race is only possible because get_vma_policy() believes that
mm->mmap_sem protects task->mempolicy, which isn't true.  The exit path
does not hold mm->mmap_sem when dropping the reference or setting
task->mempolicy to NULL: it uses task_lock(task) instead.

Thus, it's required for the caller of a task mempolicy to hold
task_lock(task) while grabbing the mempolicy and reading it.  Callers with
a vma policy store their mempolicy earlier and can simply increment the
reference count so it's guaranteed not to be freed.

Jeff Layton
91a27b2a75 vfs: define struct filename and have getname() return it
getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a
kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would
however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to
the string.

For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the
amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled,
we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not
need to recopy it from userspace.

This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return
a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the
string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it.

Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes
convenient.

210ed9deff mm, slab: release slab_mutex earlier in kmem_cache_destroy()

  *** DEADLOCK ***
=== [ cut here ] ===

This is actually a false positive. Lockdep has no way of knowing the fact
that the ABBA can actually never happen, because of special semantics of
cpu_hotplug.refcount and its handling in cpu_hotplug_begin(); the mutual
exclusion there is not achieved through mutex, but through
cpu_hotplug.refcount.

The "neither cpu_up() nor cpu_down() will proceed past cpu_hotplug_begin()
until everyone who called get_online_cpus() will call put_online_cpus()"
semantics is totally invisible to lockdep.

This patch therefore moves the unlock of slab_mutex so that rcu_barrier()
is being called with it unlocked. It has two advantages:

- it slightly reduces hold time of slab_mutex; as it's used to protect
  the cachep list, it's not necessary to hold it over kmem_cache_free()
  call any more
- it silences the lockdep false positive warning, as it avoids lockdep ever
  learning about slab_mutex -> cpu_hotplug.lock dependency

35c2a7f490 tmpfs,ceph,gfs2,isofs,reiserfs,xfs: fix fh_len checking
Fuzzing with trinity oopsed on the 1st instruction of shmem_fh_to_dentry(),
	u64 inum = fid->raw[2];
which is unhelpfully reported as at the end of shmem_alloc_inode():

BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff880061cd3000
IP: [<ffffffff812190d0>] shmem_alloc_inode+0x40/0x40
Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC

Right, tmpfs is being stupid to access fid->raw[2] before validating that
fh_len includes it: the buffer kmalloc'ed by do_sys_name_to_handle() may
fall at the end of a page, and the next page not be present.

But some other filesystems (ceph, gfs2, isofs, reiserfs, xfs) are being
careless about fh_len too, in fh_to_dentry() and/or fh_to_parent(), and
could oops in the same way: add the missing fh_len checks to those.

baaf1dd491 mm/slob: use min_t() to compare ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN
The definition of ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN is architecture dependent
and can be either of type size_t or int. Comparing that value
with ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN can cause harmless warnings on
platforms where they are different. Since both are always
small positive integer numbers, using the size_t type to compare
them is safe and gets rid of the warning.

Without this patch, building ARM collie_defconfig results in:

mm/slob.c: In function '__kmalloc_node':
mm/slob.c:431:152: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast [enabled by default]

f5c8ad4728 mm: thp: Use more portable PMD clearing sequenece in zap_huge_pmd().
Invalidation sequences are handled in various ways on various
architectures.

One way, which sparc64 uses, is to let the set_*_at() functions accumulate
pending flushes into a per-cpu array.  Then the flush_tlb_range() et al.
calls process the pending TLB flushes.

In this regime, the __tlb_remove_*tlb_entry() implementations are
essentially NOPs.

The canonical PTE zap in mm/memory.c is:

			ptent = ptep_get_and_clear_full(mm, addr, pte,
							tlb->fullmm);
			tlb_remove_tlb_entry(tlb, pte, addr);

With a subsequent tlb_flush_mmu() if needed.

Mirror this in the THP PMD zapping using:

		orig_pmd = pmdp_get_and_clear(tlb->mm, addr, pmd);
		page = pmd_page(orig_pmd);
		tlb_remove_pmd_tlb_entry(tlb, pmd, addr);

And we properly accomodate TLB flush mechanims like the one described
above.

b113da6578 mm: Add and use update_mmu_cache_pmd() in transparent huge page code.
The transparent huge page code passes a PMD pointer in as the third
argument of update_mmu_cache(), which expects a PTE pointer.

This never got noticed because X86 implements update_mmu_cache() as a
macro and thus we don't get any type checking, and X86 is the only
architecture which supports transparent huge pages currently.

Before other architectures can support transparent huge pages properly we
need to add a new interface which will take a PMD pointer as the third
argument rather than a PTE pointer.

d760afd4d2 memory-hotplug: suppress "Trying to free nonexistent resource <XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX-YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY>" warning
When our x86 box calls __remove_pages(), release_mem_region() shows many
warnings.  And x86 box cannot unregister iomem_resource.

  "Trying to free nonexistent resource <XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX-YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY>"

release_mem_region() has been changed to be called in each
PAGES_PER_SECTION by commit de7f0cba9678 ("memory hotplug: release
memory regions in PAGES_PER_SECTION chunks").  Because powerpc registers
iomem_resource in each PAGES_PER_SECTION chunk.  But when I hot add
memory on x86 box, iomem_resource is register in each _CRS not
PAGES_PER_SECTION chunk.  So x86 box unregisters iomem_resource.

The patch fixes the problem.

8449d21fb4 mm, thp: fix mlock statistics
NR_MLOCK is only accounted in single page units: there's no logic to
handle transparent hugepages.  This patch checks the appropriate number of
pages to adjust the statistics by so that the correct amount of memory is
reflected.

Currently:

		$ grep Mlocked /proc/meminfo
		Mlocked:           19636 kB

	#define MAP_SIZE	(4 << 30)	/* 4GB */

	void *ptr = mmap(NULL, MAP_SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
			 MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, 0, 0);
	mlock(ptr, MAP_SIZE);

		$ grep Mlocked /proc/meminfo
		Mlocked:           29844 kB

	munlock(ptr, MAP_SIZE);

		$ grep Mlocked /proc/meminfo
		Mlocked:           19636 kB

And with this patch:

		$ grep Mlock /proc/meminfo
		Mlocked:           19636 kB

	mlock(ptr, MAP_SIZE);

		$ grep Mlock /proc/meminfo
		Mlocked:         4213664 kB

	munlock(ptr, MAP_SIZE);

		$ grep Mlock /proc/meminfo
		Mlocked:           19636 kB

b676b293fb mm, thp: fix mapped pages avoiding unevictable list on mlock
When a transparent hugepage is mapped and it is included in an mlock()
range, follow_page() incorrectly avoids setting the page's mlock bit and
moving it to the unevictable lru.

This is evident if you try to mlock(), munlock(), and then mlock() a
range again.  Currently:

	#define MAP_SIZE	(4 << 30)	/* 4GB */

	void *ptr = mmap(NULL, MAP_SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
			 MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, 0, 0);
	mlock(ptr, MAP_SIZE);

		$ grep -E "Unevictable|Inactive\(anon" /proc/meminfo
		Inactive(anon):     6304 kB
		Unevictable:     4213924 kB

	munlock(ptr, MAP_SIZE);

		Inactive(anon):  4186252 kB
		Unevictable:       19652 kB

	mlock(ptr, MAP_SIZE);

		Inactive(anon):  4198556 kB
		Unevictable:       21684 kB

Notice that less than 2MB was added to the unevictable list; this is
because these pages in the range are not transparent hugepages since the
4GB range was allocated with mmap() and has no specific alignment.  If
posix_memalign() were used instead, unevictable would not have grown at
all on the second mlock().

The fix is to call mlock_vma_page() so that the mlock bit is set and the
page is added to the unevictable list.  With this patch:

	mlock(ptr, MAP_SIZE);

		Inactive(anon):     4056 kB
		Unevictable:     4213940 kB

	munlock(ptr, MAP_SIZE);

		Inactive(anon):  4198268 kB
		Unevictable:       19636 kB

	mlock(ptr, MAP_SIZE);

		Inactive(anon):     4008 kB
		Unevictable:     4213940 kB
