Currently, the "auto-movable" online policy does not allow for hotplugged
KERNEL (ZONE_NORMAL) memory to increase the amount of MOVABLE memory we
can have, primarily, because there is no coordiantion across memory
devices and we don't want to create zone-imbalances accidentially when
unplugging memory.
However, within a single memory device it's different. Let's allow for
KERNEL memory within a dynamic memory group to allow for more MOVABLE
within the same memory group. The only thing we have to take care of is
that the managing driver avoids zone imbalances by unplugging MOVABLE
memory first, otherwise there can be corner cases where unplug of memory
could result in (accidential) zone imbalances.
virtio-mem is the only user of dynamic memory groups and recently added
support for prioritizing unplug of ZONE_MOVABLE over ZONE_NORMAL, so we
don't need a new toggle to enable it for dynamic memory groups.
We limit this handling to dynamic memory groups, because:
* We want to keep the runtime overhead for collecting stats when
onlining a single memory block small. We tend to have only a handful of
dynamic memory groups, but we can have quite some static memory groups
(e.g., 256 DIMMs).
* It doesn't make too much sense for static memory groups, as we try
onlining all applicable memory blocks either completely to ZONE_MOVABLE
or not. In ordinary operation, we won't have a mixture of zones within
a static memory group.
When adding memory to a dynamic memory group, we'll first online memory to
ZONE_MOVABLE as long as early KERNEL memory allows for it. Then, we'll
online the next unit(s) to ZONE_NORMAL, until we can online the next
unit(s) to ZONE_MOVABLE.
For a simple virtio-mem device with a MOVABLE:KERNEL ratio of 3:1, it will
result in a layout like:
[M][M][M][M][M][M][M][M][N][M][M][M][N][M][M][M]...
^ movable memory due to early kernel memory
^ allows for more movable memory ...
^-----^ ... here
^ allows for more movable memory ...
^-----^ ... here
While the created layout is sub-optimal when it comes to contiguous zones,
it gives us the maximum flexibility when dynamically growing/shrinking a
device; we can grow small VMs really big in small steps, and still shrink
reliably to e.g., 1/4 of the maximum VM size in this example, removing
full memory blocks along with meta data more reliably.
Mark dynamic memory groups in the xarray such that we can efficiently
iterate over them when collecting stats. In usual setups, we have one
virtio-mem device per NUMA node, and usually only a small number of NUMA
nodes.
Note: for now, there seems to be no compelling reason to make this
behavior configurable.

Use memory groups to improve our "auto-movable" onlining policy:
1. For static memory groups (e.g., a DIMM), online a memory block MOVABLE
only if all other memory blocks in the group are either MOVABLE or could
be onlined MOVABLE. A DIMM will either be MOVABLE or not, not a mixture.
2. For dynamic memory groups (e.g., a virtio-mem device), online a
memory block MOVABLE only if all other memory blocks inside the
current unit are either MOVABLE or could be onlined MOVABLE. For a
virtio-mem device with a device block size with 512 MiB, all 128 MiB
memory blocks wihin a 512 MiB unit will either be MOVABLE or not, not
a mixture.
We have to pass the memory group to zone_for_pfn_range() to take the
memory group into account.
Note: for now, there seems to be no compelling reason to make this
behavior configurable.

Let's track all present pages in each memory group. Especially, track
memory present in ZONE_MOVABLE and memory present in one of the kernel
zones (which really only is ZONE_NORMAL right now as memory groups only
apply to hotplugged memory) separately within a memory group, to prepare
for making smart auto-online decision for individual memory blocks within
a memory group based on group statistics.

In our "auto-movable" memory onlining policy, we want to make decisions
across memory blocks of a single memory device. Examples of memory
devices include ACPI memory devices (in the simplest case a single DIMM)
and virtio-mem. For now, we don't have a connection between a single
memory block device and the real memory device. Each memory device
consists of 1..X memory block devices.
Let's logically group memory blocks belonging to the same memory device in
"memory groups". Memory groups can span multiple physical ranges and a
memory group itself does not contain any information regarding physical
ranges, only properties (e.g., "max_pages") necessary for improved memory
onlining.
Introduce two memory group types:
1) Static memory group: E.g., a single ACPI memory device, consisting
of 1..X memory resources. A memory group consists of 1..Y memory
blocks. The whole group is added/removed in one go. If any part
cannot get offlined, the whole group cannot be removed.
2) Dynamic memory group: E.g., a single virtio-mem device. Memory is
dynamically added/removed in a fixed granularity, called a "unit",
consisting of 1..X memory blocks. A unit is added/removed in one go.
If any part of a unit cannot get offlined, the whole unit cannot be
removed.
In case of 1) we usually want either all memory managed by ZONE_MOVABLE or
none. In case of 2) we usually want to have as many units as possible
managed by ZONE_MOVABLE. We want a single unit to be of the same type.
For now, memory groups are an internal concept that is not exposed to user
space; we might want to change that in the future, though.
add_memory() users can specify a mgid instead of a nid when passing the
MHP_NID_IS_MGID flag.

When onlining without specifying a zone (using "online" instead of
"online_kernel" or "online_movable"), we currently select a zone such that
existing zones are kept contiguous. This online policy made sense in the
past, where contiguous zones where required.
We'd like to implement smarter policies, however:
* User space has little insight. As one example, it has no idea which
memory blocks logically belong together (e.g., to a DIMM or to a
virtio-mem device).
* Drivers that add memory in separate memory blocks, especially
virtio-mem, want memory to get onlined right from the kernel when
adding.
So we really want to have onlining to differing zones managed in the
kernel, configured by user space.
We see more and more cases where we might eventually hotplug a lot of
memory in the future (e.g., eventually grow a 2 GiB VM to 64 GiB),
however:
* Resizing happens dynamically, in smaller steps in both directions
(e.g., 2 GiB -> 8 GiB -> 4 GiB -> 16 GiB ...)
* We still want as much flexibility as possible, especially,
hotunplugging as much memory as possible later.
We can really only use "online_movable" if we know that the amount of
memory we are going to hotplug upfront, and we know that it won't result
in a zone imbalance. So in our example, a 2 GiB VM that could grow to 64
GiB could currently not use "online_movable", and instead, "online_kernel"
would have to be used, resulting in worse (no) memory hotunplug
reliability.
Let's add a new "auto-movable" online policy that considers the current
zone ratios (global, per-node) to determine, whether we a memory block can
be onlined to ZONE_MOVABLE:
MOVABLE : KERNEL
However, internally we'll only consider the following ratio for now:
MOVABLE : KERNEL_EARLY
For now, we don't allow for hotplugged KERNEL memory to allow for more
MOVABLE memory, because there is no coordination across memory devices.
In follow-up patches, we will allow for more KERNEL memory within a memory
device to allow for more MOVABLE memory within the same memory device --
which only makes sense for special memory device types.
We base our calculation on "present pages", see the code comments for
details. Hotplugged memory will get online to ZONE_MOVABLE if the
configured ratio allows for it. Depending on the setup, this can result
in fragmented zones, which can make compaction slower and dynamic
allocation of gigantic pages when not using CMA less reliable (... which
is already pretty unreliable).
The old policy will be the default and called "contig-zones". In
follow-up patches, our new policy will use additional information, such as
memory groups, to make even smarter decisions across memory blocks.
Configuration:
* memory_hotplug.online_policy is used to switch between both polices
and defaults to "contig-zones".
* memory_hotplug.auto_movable_ratio defines the maximum ratio is in
percent and defaults to "301" -- allowing e.g., most 8 GiB machines to
grow to 32 GiB and have all hotplugged memory in ZONE_MOVABLE. The
additional percent accounts for a handful of lost present pages (e.g.,
firmware allocations). User space is expected to adjust this ratio when
enabling the new "auto-movable" policy, though.
* memory_hotplug.auto_movable_numa_aware considers numa node stats in
addition to global stats, and defaults to "true".
Note: just like the old policy, the new policy won't take things like
unmovable huge pages or memory ballooning that doesn't support balloon
compaction into account. User space has to configure onlining
accordingly.

Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: "auto-movable" online policy and memory groups", v3.
I. Goal
The goal of this series is improving in-kernel auto-online support. It
tackles the fundamental problems that:
1) We can create zone imbalances when onlining all memory blindly to
ZONE_MOVABLE, in the worst case crashing the system. We have to know
upfront how much memory we are going to hotplug such that we can
safely enable auto-onlining of all hotplugged memory to ZONE_MOVABLE
via "online_movable". This is far from practical and only applicable in
limited setups -- like inside VMs under the RHV/oVirt hypervisor which
will never hotplug more than 3 times the boot memory (and the
limitation is only in place due to the Linux limitation).
2) We see more setups that implement dynamic VM resizing, hot(un)plugging
memory to resize VM memory. In these setups, we might hotplug a lot of
memory, but it might happen in various small steps in both directions
(e.g., 2 GiB -> 8 GiB -> 4 GiB -> 16 GiB ...). virtio-mem is the
primary driver of this upstream right now, performing such dynamic
resizing NUMA-aware via multiple virtio-mem devices.
Onlining all hotplugged memory to ZONE_NORMAL means we basically have
no hotunplug guarantees. Onlining all to ZONE_MOVABLE means we can
easily run into zone imbalances when growing a VM. We want a mixture,
and we want as much memory as reasonable/configured in ZONE_MOVABLE.
Details regarding zone imbalances can be found at [1].
3) Memory devices consist of 1..X memory block devices, however, the
kernel doesn't really track the relationship. Consequently, also user
space has no idea. We want to make per-device decisions.
As one example, for memory hotunplug it doesn't make sense to use a
mixture of zones within a single DIMM: we want all MOVABLE if
possible, otherwise all !MOVABLE, because any !MOVABLE part will easily
block the whole DIMM from getting hotunplugged.
As another example, virtio-mem operates on individual units that span
1..X memory blocks. Similar to a DIMM, we want a unit to either be all
MOVABLE or !MOVABLE. A "unit" can be thought of like a DIMM, however,
all units of a virtio-mem device logically belong together and are
managed (added/removed) by a single driver. We want as much memory of
a virtio-mem device to be MOVABLE as possible.
4) We want memory onlining to be done right from the kernel while adding
memory, not triggered by user space via udev rules; for example, this
is reqired for fast memory hotplug for drivers that add individual
memory blocks, like virito-mem. We want a way to configure a policy in
the kernel and avoid implementing advanced policies in user space.
The auto-onlining support we have in the kernel is not sufficient. All we
have is a) online everything MOVABLE (online_movable) b) online everything
!MOVABLE (online_kernel) c) keep zones contiguous (online). This series
allows configuring c) to mean instead "online movable if possible
according to the coniguration, driven by a maximum MOVABLE:KERNEL ratio"
-- a new onlining policy.
II. Approach
This series does 3 things:
1) Introduces the "auto-movable" online policy that initially operates on
individual memory blocks only. It uses a maximum MOVABLE:KERNEL ratio
to make a decision whether a memory block will be onlined to
ZONE_MOVABLE or not. However, in the basic form, hotplugged KERNEL
memory does not allow for more MOVABLE memory (details in the
patches). CMA memory is treated like MOVABLE memory.
2) Introduces static (e.g., DIMM) and dynamic (e.g., virtio-mem) memory
groups and uses group information to make decisions in the
"auto-movable" online policy across memory blocks of a single memory
device (modeled as memory group). More details can be found in patch
#3 or in the DIMM example below.
3) Maximizes ZONE_MOVABLE memory within dynamic memory groups, by
allowing ZONE_NORMAL memory within a dynamic memory group to allow for
more ZONE_MOVABLE memory within the same memory group. The target use
case is dynamic VM resizing using virtio-mem. See the virtio-mem
example below.
I remember that the basic idea of using a ratio to implement a policy in
the kernel was once mentioned by Vitaly Kuznetsov, but I might be wrong (I
lost the pointer to that discussion).
For me, the main use case is using it along with virtio-mem (and DIMMs /
ppc64 dlpar where necessary) for dynamic resizing of VMs, increasing the
amount of memory we can hotunplug reliably again if we might eventually
hotplug a lot of memory to a VM.
III. Target Usage
The target usage will be:
1) Linux boots with "mhp_default_online_type=offline"
2) User space (e.g., systemd unit) configures memory onlining (according
to a config file and system properties), for example:
* Setting memory_hotplug.online_policy=auto-movable
* Setting memory_hotplug.auto_movable_ratio=301
* Setting memory_hotplug.auto_movable_numa_aware=true
3) User space enabled auto onlining via "echo online >
/sys/devices/system/memory/auto_online_blocks"
4) User space triggers manual onlining of all already-offline memory
blocks (go over offline memory blocks and set them to "online")
IV. Example
For DIMMs, hotplugging 4 GiB DIMMs to a 4 GiB VM with a configured ratio of
301% results in the following layout:
Memory block 0-15: DMA32 (early)
Memory block 32-47: Normal (early)
Memory block 48-79: Movable (DIMM 0)
Memory block 80-111: Movable (DIMM 1)
Memory block 112-143: Movable (DIMM 2)
Memory block 144-275: Normal (DIMM 3)
Memory block 176-207: Normal (DIMM 4)
... all Normal
(-> hotplugged Normal memory does not allow for more Movable memory)
For virtio-mem, using a simple, single virtio-mem device with a 4 GiB VM
will result in the following layout:
Memory block 0-15: DMA32 (early)
Memory block 32-47: Normal (early)
Memory block 48-143: Movable (virtio-mem, first 12 GiB)
Memory block 144: Normal (virtio-mem, next 128 MiB)
Memory block 145-147: Movable (virtio-mem, next 384 MiB)
Memory block 148: Normal (virtio-mem, next 128 MiB)
Memory block 149-151: Movable (virtio-mem, next 384 MiB)
... Normal/Movable mixture as above
(-> hotplugged Normal memory allows for more Movable memory within
the same device)
Which gives us maximum flexibility when dynamically growing/shrinking a
VM in smaller steps.
V. Doc Update
I'll update the memory-hotplug.rst documentation, once the overhaul [1] is
usptream. Until then, details can be found in patch #2.
VI. Future Work
1) Use memory groups for ppc64 dlpar
2) Being able to specify a portion of (early) kernel memory that will be
excluded from the ratio. Like "128 MiB globally/per node" are excluded.
This might be helpful when starting VMs with extremely small memory
footprint (e.g., 128 MiB) and hotplugging memory later -- not wanting
the first hotplugged units getting onlined to ZONE_MOVABLE. One
alternative would be a trigger to not consider ZONE_DMA memory
in the ratio. We'll have to see if this is really rrequired.
3) Indicate to user space that MOVABLE might be a bad idea -- especially
relevant when memory ballooning without support for balloon compaction
is active.
This patch (of 9):
For implementing a new memory onlining policy, which determines when to
online memory blocks to ZONE_MOVABLE semi-automatically, we need the
number of present early (boot) pages -- present pages excluding hotplugged
pages. Let's track these pages per zone.
Pass a page instead of the zone to adjust_present_page_count(), similar as
adjust_managed_page_count() and derive the zone from the page.
It's worth noting that a memory block to be offlined/onlined is either
completely "early" or "not early". add_memory() and friends can only add
complete memory blocks and we only online/offline complete (individual)
memory blocks.

There is only a single user remaining. We can simply lookup the nid only
used for node offlining purposes when walking our memory blocks. We don't
expect to remove multi-nid ranges; and if we'd ever do, we most probably
don't care about removing multi-nid ranges that actually result in empty
nodes.
If ever required, we can detect the "multi-nid" scenario and simply try
offlining all online nodes.

Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: preparatory patches for new online policy and memory"
These are all cleanups and one fix previously sent as part of [1]:
[PATCH v1 00/12] mm/memory_hotplug: "auto-movable" online policy and memory
groups.
These patches make sense even without the other series, therefore I pulled
them out to make the other series easier to digest.
[1] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210607195430.48228-1-david@redhat.com
This patch (of 4):
Checkpatch complained on a follow-up patch that we are using "unsigned"
here, which defaults to "unsigned int" and checkpatch is correct.
As we will search for a fitting zone using the wrong pfn, we might end
up onlining memory to one of the special kernel zones, such as ZONE_DMA,
which can end badly as the onlined memory does not satisfy properties of
these zones.
Use "unsigned long" instead, just as we do in other places when handling
PFNs. This can bite us once we have physical addresses in the range of
multiple TB.

Patch series "mm: remove pfn_valid_within() and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE".
After recent updates to freeing unused parts of the memory map, no
architecture can have holes in the memory map within a pageblock. This
makes pfn_valid_within() check and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE configuration
option redundant.
The first patch removes them both in a mechanical way and the second patch
simplifies memory_hotplug::test_pages_in_a_zone() that had
pfn_valid_within() surrounded by more logic than simple if.
This patch (of 2):
After recent changes in freeing of the unused parts of the memory map and
rework of pfn_valid() in arm and arm64 there are no architectures that can
have holes in the memory map within a pageblock and so nothing can enable
CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE which guards non trivial implementation of
pfn_valid_within().
With that, pfn_valid_within() is always hardwired to 1 and can be
completely removed.
Remove calls to pfn_valid_within() and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE.

This reverts commit 9857a17f206ff374aea78bccfb687f145368be2e.
That commit was completely broken, and I should have caught on to it
earlier. But happily, the kernel test robot noticed the breakage fairly
quickly.
The breakage is because "try_get_page()" is about avoiding the page
reference count overflow case, but is otherwise the exact same as a
plain "get_page()".
In contrast, "try_get_compound_head()" is an entirely different beast,
and uses __page_cache_add_speculative() because it's not just about the
page reference count, but also about possibly racing with the underlying
page going away.
So all the commentary about how
"try_get_page() has fallen a little behind in terms of maintenance,
try_get_compound_head() handles speculative page references more
thoroughly"
was just completely wrong: yes, try_get_compound_head() handles
speculative page references, but the point is that try_get_page() does
not, and must not.
So there's no lack of maintainance - there are fundamentally different
semantics.
A speculative page reference would be entirely wrong in "get_page()",
and it's entirely wrong in "try_get_page()". It's not about
speculation, it's purely about "uhhuh, you can't get this page because
you've tried to increment the reference count too much already".
The reason the kernel test robot noticed this bug was that it hit the
VM_BUG_ON() in __page_cache_add_speculative(), which is all about
verifying that the context of any speculative page access is correct.
But since that isn't what try_get_page() is all about, the VM_BUG_ON()
tests things that are not correct to test for try_get_page().

- We no longer deny write access to shared libaries loaded via legacy

- We no longer deny write access to the elf interpreter after exec
completed, treating it just like shared libraries (which it often
is).
- We always deny write access to the file linked via /proc/pid/exe:
sys_prctl(PR_SET_MM_MAP/EXE_FILE) will fail if write access to the
file cannot be denied, and write access to the file will remain
denied until the link is effectivel gone (exec, termination,
sys_prctl(PR_SET_MM_MAP/EXE_FILE)) -- just as if exec'ing the file.

Embed local_lock into struct kmem_cpu_slab and use the irq-safe versions of
local_lock instead of plain local_irq_save/restore. On !PREEMPT_RT that's
equivalent, with better lockdep visibility. On PREEMPT_RT that means better
preemption.
However, the cost on PREEMPT_RT is the loss of lockless fast paths which only
work with cpu freelist. Those are designed to detect and recover from being
preempted by other conflicting operations (both fast or slow path), but the
slow path operations assume they cannot be preempted by a fast path operation,
which is guaranteed naturally with disabled irqs. With local locks on
PREEMPT_RT, the fast paths now also need to take the local lock to avoid races.
In the allocation fastpath slab_alloc_node() we can just defer to the slowpath
__slab_alloc() which also works with cpu freelist, but under the local lock.
In the free fastpath do_slab_free() we have to add a new local lock protected
version of freeing to the cpu freelist, as the existing slowpath only works
with the page freelist.
Also update the comment about locking scheme in SLUB to reflect changes done
by this series.

We currently use preempt_disable() (directly or via get_cpu_ptr()) to stabilize
the pointer to kmem_cache_cpu. On PREEMPT_RT this would be incompatible with
the list_lock spinlock. We can use migrate_disable() instead, but that
increases overhead on !PREEMPT_RT as it's an unconditional function call.
In order to get the best available mechanism on both PREEMPT_RT and
!PREEMPT_RT, introduce private slub_get_cpu_ptr() and slub_put_cpu_ptr()
wrappers and use them.

Jann Horn reported [1] the following theoretically possible race:
task A: put_cpu_partial() calls preempt_disable()
task A: oldpage = this_cpu_read(s->cpu_slab->partial)
interrupt: kfree() reaches unfreeze_partials() and discards the page
task B (on another CPU): reallocates page as page cache
task A: reads page->pages and page->pobjects, which are actually
halves of the pointer page->lru.prev
task B (on another CPU): frees page
interrupt: allocates page as SLUB page and places it on the percpu partial list
task A: this_cpu_cmpxchg() succeeds
which would cause page->pages and page->pobjects to end up containing
halves of pointers that would then influence when put_cpu_partial()
happens and show up in root-only sysfs files. Maybe that's acceptable,
I don't know. But there should probably at least be a comment for now
to point out that we're reading union fields of a page that might be
in a completely different state.
Additionally, the this_cpu_cmpxchg() approach in put_cpu_partial() is only safe
against s->cpu_slab->partial manipulation in ___slab_alloc() if the latter
disables irqs, otherwise a __slab_free() in an irq handler could call
put_cpu_partial() in the middle of ___slab_alloc() manipulating ->partial
and corrupt it. This becomes an issue on RT after a local_lock is introduced
in later patch. The fix means taking the local_lock also in put_cpu_partial()
on RT.
After debugging this issue, Mike Galbraith suggested [2] that to avoid
different locking schemes on RT and !RT, we can just protect put_cpu_partial()
with disabled irqs (to be converted to local_lock_irqsave() later) everywhere.
This should be acceptable as it's not a fast path, and moving the actual
partial unfreezing outside of the irq disabled section makes it short, and with
the retry loop gone the code can be also simplified. In addition, the race
reported by Jann should no longer be possible.

We need to disable irqs around slab_lock() (a bit spinlock) to make it
irq-safe. Most calls to slab_lock() are nested under spin_lock_irqsave() which
doesn't disable irqs on PREEMPT_RT, so add explicit disabling with PREEMPT_RT.
The exception is cmpxchg_double_slab() which already disables irqs, so use a
__slab_[un]lock() variant without irq disable there.
slab_[un]lock() thus needs a flags pointer parameter, which is unused on !RT.
free_debug_processing() now has two flags variables, which looks odd, but only
one is actually used - the one used in spin_lock_irqsave() on !RT and the one
used in slab_lock() on RT.
As a result, __cmpxchg_double_slab() and cmpxchg_double_slab() become
effectively identical on RT, as both will disable irqs, which is necessary on
RT as most callers of this function also rely on irqsaving lock operations.
Thus, assert that irqs are already disabled in __cmpxchg_double_slab() only on
!RT and also change the VM_BUG_ON assertion to the more standard lockdep_assert
one.

flush_all() flushes a specific SLAB cache on each CPU (where the cache
is present). The deactivate_slab()/__free_slab() invocation happens
within IPI handler and is problematic for PREEMPT_RT.
The flush operation is not a frequent operation or a hot path. The
per-CPU flush operation can be moved to within a workqueue.
Because a workqueue handler, unlike IPI handler, does not disable irqs,
flush_slab() now has to disable them for working with the kmem_cache_cpu
fields. deactivate_slab() is safe to call with irqs enabled.

flush_slab() is called either as part IPI handler on given live cpu, or as a

whole call happens with irqs disabled by the IPI handler, but the following
patch will change from IPI to workqueue, and flush_slab() will have to disable
irqs (to be replaced with a local lock later) in the critical part.

Unfreezing partial list can be split to two phases - detaching the list from
struct kmem_cache_cpu, and processing the list. The whole operation does not
need to be protected by disabled irqs. Restructure the code to separate the
detaching (with disabled irqs) and unfreezing (with irq disabling to be reduced
in the next patch).
Also, unfreeze_partials() can be called from another cpu on behalf of a cpu
that is being offlined, where disabling irqs on the local cpu has no sense, so
restructure the code as follows:
- __unfreeze_partials() is the bulk of unfreeze_partials() that processes the
detached percpu partial list
- unfreeze_partials() detaches list from current cpu with irqs disabled and
calls __unfreeze_partials()
- unfreeze_partials_cpu() is to be called for the offlined cpu so it needs no
irq disabling, and is called from __flush_cpu_slab()
- flush_cpu_slab() is for the local cpu thus it needs to call
unfreeze_partials(). So it can't simply call
__flush_cpu_slab(smp_processor_id()) anymore and we have to open-code the
proper calls.

The function is now safe to be called with irqs enabled, so move the calls
outside of irq disabled sections.
When called from ___slab_alloc() -> flush_slab() we have irqs disabled, so to
reenable them before deactivate_slab() we need to open-code flush_slab() in
___slab_alloc() and reenable irqs after modifying the kmem_cache_cpu fields.
But that means a IRQ handler meanwhile might have assigned a new page to
kmem_cache_cpu.page so we have to retry the whole check.
The remaining callers of flush_slab() are the IPI handler which has disabled
irqs anyway, and slub_cpu_dead() which will be dealt with in the following
patch.

dectivate_slab() now no longer touches the kmem_cache_cpu structure, so it will
be possible to call it with irqs enabled. Just convert the spin_lock calls to
their irq saving/restoring variants to make it irq-safe.

in some situations we don't take the list_lock, which would disable irqs.

deactivate_slab() removes the cpu slab by merging the cpu freelist with slab's
freelist and putting the slab on the proper node's list. It also sets the
respective kmem_cache_cpu pointers to NULL.
By extracting the kmem_cache_cpu operations from the function, we can make it
not dependent on disabled irqs.
Also if we return a single free pointer from ___slab_alloc, we no longer have
to assign kmem_cache_cpu.page before deactivation or care if somebody preempted
us and assigned a different page to our kmem_cache_cpu in the process.

As another step of shortening irq disabled sections in ___slab_alloc(), delay
disabling irqs until we pass the initial checks if there is a cached percpu
slab and it's suitable for our allocation.
Now we have to recheck c->page after actually disabling irqs as an allocation
in irq handler might have replaced it.
Because we call pfmemalloc_match() as one of the checks, we might hit
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageSlab(page)) in PageSlabPfmemalloc in case we get
interrupted and the page is freed. Thus introduce a pfmemalloc_match_unsafe()
variant that lacks the PageSlab check.

Currently __slab_alloc() disables irqs around the whole ___slab_alloc(). This
includes cases where this is not needed, such as when the allocation ends up in
the page allocator and has to awkwardly enable irqs back based on gfp flags.
Also the whole kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() is executed with irqs disabled even when
it hits the __slab_alloc() slow path, and long periods with disabled interrupts
are undesirable.
As a first step towards reducing irq disabled periods, move irq handling into
___slab_alloc(). Callers will instead prevent the s->cpu_slab percpu pointer
from becoming invalid via get_cpu_ptr(), thus preempt_disable(). This does not
protect against modification by an irq handler, which is still done by disabled
irq for most of ___slab_alloc(). As a small immediate benefit,
slab_out_of_memory() from ___slab_alloc() is now called with irqs enabled.
kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() disables irqs for its fastpath and then re-enables them
before calling ___slab_alloc(), which then disables them at its discretion. The
whole kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() operation also disables preemption.
When ___slab_alloc() calls new_slab() to allocate a new page, re-enable
preemption, because new_slab() will re-enable interrupts in contexts that allow
blocking (this will be improved by later patches).
The patch itself will thus increase overhead a bit due to disabled preemption
(on configs where it matters) and increased disabling/enabling irqs in
kmem_cache_alloc_bulk(), but that will be gradually improved in the following
patches.
Note in __slab_alloc() we need to change the #ifdef CONFIG_PREEMPT guard to
CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT to make sure preempt disable/enable is properly paired in
all configurations. On configs without involuntary preemption and debugging
the re-read of kmem_cache_cpu pointer is still compiled out as it was before.

In slab_alloc_node() and do_slab_free() fastpaths we need to guarantee that
our kmem_cache_cpu pointer is from the same cpu as the tid value. Currently
that's done by reading the tid first using this_cpu_read(), then the
kmem_cache_cpu pointer and verifying we read the same tid using the pointer and
plain READ_ONCE().
This can be simplified to just fetching kmem_cache_cpu pointer and then reading
tid using the pointer. That guarantees they are from the same cpu. We don't
need to read the tid using this_cpu_read() because the value will be validated
by this_cpu_cmpxchg_double(), making sure we are on the correct cpu and the
freelist didn't change by anyone preempting us since reading the tid.

When we allocate slab object from a newly acquired page (from node's partial
list or page allocator), we usually also retain the page as a new percpu slab.
There are two exceptions - when pfmemalloc status of the page doesn't match our
gfp flags, or when the cache has debugging enabled.
The current code for these decisions is not easy to follow, so restructure it
and add comments. The new structure will also help with the following changes.
No functional change.

The function get_partial() finds a suitable page on a partial list, acquires
and returns its freelist and assigns the page pointer to kmem_cache_cpu.
In later patch we will need more control over the kmem_cache_cpu.page
assignment, so instead of passing a kmem_cache_cpu pointer, pass a pointer to a
pointer to a page that get_partial() can fill and the caller can assign the
kmem_cache_cpu.page pointer. No functional change as all of this still happens
with disabled IRQs.

The later patches will need more fine grained control over individual actions
in ___slab_alloc(), the only caller of new_slab_objects(), so dissolve it
there. This is a preparatory step with no functional change.
The only minor change is moving WARN_ON_ONCE() for using a constructor together
with __GFP_ZERO to new_slab(), which makes it somewhat less frequent, but still
able to catch a development change introducing a systematic misuse.

Commit d6e0b7fa1186 ("slub: make dead caches discard free slabs immediately")
introduced cpu partial flushing for kmemcg caches, based on setting the target
cpu_partial to 0 and adding a flushing check in put_cpu_partial().
This code that sets cpu_partial to 0 was later moved by c9fc586403e7 ("slab:
introduce __kmemcg_cache_deactivate()") and ultimately removed by 9855609bde03
("mm: memcg/slab: use a single set of kmem_caches for all accounted
allocations"). However the check and flush in put_cpu_partial() was never
removed, although it's effectively a dead code. So this patch removes it.
Note that d6e0b7fa1186 also added preempt_disable()/enable() to
unfreeze_partials() which could be thus also considered unnecessary. But
further patches will rely on it, so keep it.

In slab_free_hook() we disable irqs around the debug_check_no_locks_freed()
call, which is unnecessary, as irqs are already being disabled inside the call.
This seems to be leftover from the past where there were more calls inside the
irq disabled sections. Remove the irq disable/enable operations.

validate_slab_cache() is called either to handle a sysfs write, or from a
self-test context. In both situations it's straightforward to preallocate a
private object bitmap instead of grabbing the shared static one meant for
critical sections, so let's do that.

Slub has a static spinlock protected bitmap for marking which objects are on
freelist when it wants to list them, for situations where dynamically
allocating such map can lead to recursion or locking issues, and on-stack
bitmap would be too large.
The handlers of debugfs files alloc_traces and free_traces also currently use this
shared bitmap, but their syscall context makes it straightforward to allocate a
private map before entering locked sections, so switch these processing paths
to use a private bitmap.
