mm: fs: invalidate BH LRU during page migration

2021-05-05T18:27:24Z

Pages containing buffer_heads that are in one of the per-CPU buffer_head LRU caches will be pinned and thus cannot be migrated. This can prevent CMA allocations from succeeding, which are often used on platforms with co-processors (such as a DSP) that can only use physically contiguous memory. It can also prevent memory hot-unplugging from succeeding, which involves migrating at least MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE bytes of memory, which ranges from 8 MiB to 1 GiB based on the architecture in use. Correspondingly, invalidate the BH LRU caches before a migration starts and stop any buffer_head from being cached in the LRU caches, until migration has finished.

fs: buffer: use raw page_memcg() on locked page

2021-02-24T21:38:30Z

alloc_page_buffers() currently uses get_mem_cgroup_from_page() for charging the buffers to the page owner, which does an rcu-protected page->memcg lookup and acquires a reference. But buffer allocation has the page lock held throughout, which pins the page to the memcg and thereby the memcg - neither rcu nor holding an extra reference during the allocation are necessary. Use a raw page_memcg() instead. This was the last user of get_mem_cgroup_from_page(), delete it.

fs/buffer.c: add checking buffer head stat before clear

2021-02-24T21:38:28Z

clear_buffer_new() is used to clear buffer new stat. When PAGE_SIZE is 64K, most buffer heads in the list are not needed to clear. clear_buffer_new() has an enpensive atomic modification operation, Let's add checking buffer head before clear it as __block_write_begin_int does which is good for performance.

mm: memcontrol: Use helpers to read page's memcg data

2020-12-03T02:28:05Z

Patch series "mm: allow mapping accounted kernel pages to userspace", v6. Currently a non-slab kernel page which has been charged to a memory cgroup can't be mapped to userspace. The underlying reason is simple: PageKmemcg flag is defined as a page type (like buddy, offline, etc), so it takes a bit from a page->mapped counter. Pages with a type set can't be mapped to userspace. But in general the kmemcg flag has nothing to do with mapping to userspace. It only means that the page has been accounted by the page allocator, so it has to be properly uncharged on release. Some bpf maps are mapping the vmalloc-based memory to userspace, and their memory can't be accounted because of this implementation detail. This patchset removes this limitation by moving the PageKmemcg flag into one of the free bits of the page->mem_cgroup pointer. Also it formalizes accesses to the page->mem_cgroup and page->obj_cgroups using new helpers, adds several checks and removes a couple of obsolete functions. As the result the code became more robust with fewer open-coded bit tricks. This patch (of 4): Currently there are many open-coded reads of the page->mem_cgroup pointer, as well as a couple of read helpers, which are barely used. It creates an obstacle on a way to reuse some bits of the pointer for storing additional bits of information. In fact, we already do this for slab pages, where the last bit indicates that a pointer has an attached vector of objcg pointers instead of a regular memcg pointer. This commits uses 2 existing helpers and introduces a new helper to converts all read sides to calls of these helpers: struct mem_cgroup *page_memcg(struct page *page); struct mem_cgroup *page_memcg_rcu(struct page *page); struct mem_cgroup *page_memcg_check(struct page *page); page_memcg_check() is intended to be used in cases when the page can be a slab page and have a memcg pointer pointing at objcg vector. It does check the lowest bit, and if set, returns NULL. page_memcg() contains a VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() check for the page not being a slab page. To make sure nobody uses a direct access, struct page's mem_cgroup/obj_cgroups is converted to unsigned long memcg_data.

mm, memcg: rework remote charging API to support nesting

2020-10-18T16:27:09Z

Currently the remote memcg charging API consists of two functions: memalloc_use_memcg() and memalloc_unuse_memcg(), which set and clear the memcg value, which overwrites the memcg of the current task. memalloc_use_memcg(target_memcg); <...> memalloc_unuse_memcg(); It works perfectly for allocations performed from a normal context, however an attempt to call it from an interrupt context or just nest two remote charging blocks will lead to an incorrect accounting. On exit from the inner block the active memcg will be cleared instead of being restored. memalloc_use_memcg(target_memcg); memalloc_use_memcg(target_memcg_2); <...> memalloc_unuse_memcg(); Error: allocation here are charged to the memcg of the current process instead of target_memcg. memalloc_unuse_memcg(); This patch extends the remote charging API by switching to a single function: struct mem_cgroup *set_active_memcg(struct mem_cgroup *memcg), which sets the new value and returns the old one. So a remote charging block will look like: old_memcg = set_active_memcg(target_memcg); <...> set_active_memcg(old_memcg); This patch is heavily based on the patch by Johannes Weiner, which can be found here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/5/28/806 .

fs: Don't invalidate page buffers in block_write_full_page()

2020-09-07T16:23:07Z

If block_write_full_page() is called for a page that is beyond current inode size, it will truncate page buffers for the page and return 0. This logic has been added in 2.5.62 in commit 81eb69062588 ("fix ext3 BUG due to race with truncate") in history.git tree to fix a problem with ext3 in data=ordered mode. This particular problem doesn't exist anymore because ext3 is long gone and ext4 handles ordered data differently. Also normally buffers are invalidated by truncate code and there's no need to specially handle this in ->writepage() code. This invalidation of page buffers in block_write_full_page() is causing issues to filesystems (e.g. ext4 or ocfs2) when block device is shrunk under filesystem's hands and metadata buffers get discarded while being tracked by the journalling layer. Although it is obviously "not supported" it can cause kernel crashes like: [ 7986.689400] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at +0000000000000008 [ 7986.697197] PGD 0 P4D 0 [ 7986.699724] Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP PTI [ 7986.703200] CPU: 4 PID: 203778 Comm: jbd2/dm-3-8 Kdump: loaded Tainted: G +O --------- - - 4.18.0-147.5.0.5.h126.eulerosv2r9.x86_64 #1 [ 7986.716438] Hardware name: Huawei RH2288H V3/BC11HGSA0, BIOS 1.57 08/11/2015 [ 7986.723462] RIP: 0010:jbd2_journal_grab_journal_head+0x1b/0x40 [jbd2] ...

The crash happens because bh->b_private is suddently NULL although BH_JBD flag is still set (this is because block_invalidatepage() cleared BH_Mapped flag and subsequent bh lookup found buffer without BH_Mapped set, called init_page_buffers() which has rewritten bh->b_private). So just remove the invalidation in block_write_full_page(). Note that the buffer cache invalidation when block device changes size is already careful to avoid similar problems by using invalidate_mapping_pages() which skips busy buffers so it was only this odd block_write_full_page() behavior that could tear down bdev buffers under filesystem's hands.
