<content type='text'>
commit 13db8c50477d83ad3e3b9b0ae247e5cd833a7ae4 upstream.

After fork, the child process will get incorrect (2x) hugetlb_usage.  If
a process uses 5 2MB hugetlb pages in an anonymous mapping,

	HugetlbPages:	   10240 kB

and then forks, the child will show,

	HugetlbPages:	   20480 kB

The reason for double the amount is because hugetlb_usage will be copied
from the parent and then increased when we copy page tables from parent
to child.  Child will have 2x actual usage.

Fix this by adding hugetlb_count_init in mm_init.

commit 150d71584b12809144b8145b817e83b81158ae5f upstream

To allow separate handling of the futex exit state in the futex exit code
for exit and exec, split futex_mm_release() into two functions and invoke
them from the corresponding exit/exec_mm_release() callsites.

Preparatory only, no functional change.

commit 4610ba7ad877fafc0a25a30c6c82015304120426 upstream

mm_release() contains the futex exit handling. mm_release() is called from
do_exit()-&gt;exit_mm() and from exec()-&gt;exec_mm().

In the exit_mm() case PF_EXITING and the futex state is updated. In the
exec_mm() case these states are not touched.

As the futex exit code needs further protections against exit races, this
needs to be split into two functions.

Preparatory only, no functional change.

commit ba31c1a48538992316cc71ce94fa9cd3e7b427c0 upstream

The futex exit handling is #ifdeffed into mm_release() which is not pretty
to begin with. But upcoming changes to address futex exit races need to add
more functionality to this exit code.

Split it out into a function, move it into futex code and make the various
futex exit functions static.

Preparatory only and no functional change.

Folded build fix from Borislav.

<title>mm, oom_adj: don't loop through tasks in __set_oom_adj when not necessary</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a3d0ceee716047c5e8a2bcdd3192f885f404386d</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 67197a4f28d28d0b073ab0427b03cb2ee5382578 ]

Currently __set_oom_adj loops through all processes in the system to keep
oom_score_adj and oom_score_adj_min in sync between processes sharing
their mm.  This is done for any task with more that one mm_users, which
includes processes with multiple threads (sharing mm and signals).
However for such processes the loop is unnecessary because their signal
structure is shared as well.

Android updates oom_score_adj whenever a tasks changes its role
(background/foreground/...) or binds to/unbinds from a service, making it
more/less important.  Such operation can happen frequently.  We noticed
that updates to oom_score_adj became more expensive and after further
investigation found out that the patch mentioned in "Fixes" introduced a
regression.  Using Pixel 4 with a typical Android workload, write time to
oom_score_adj increased from ~3.57us to ~362us.  Moreover this regression
linearly depends on the number of multi-threaded processes running on the
system.

Mark the mm with a new MMF_MULTIPROCESS flag bit when task is created with
(CLONE_VM &amp;&amp; !CLONE_THREAD &amp;&amp; !CLONE_VFORK).  Change __set_oom_adj to use
MMF_MULTIPROCESS instead of mm_users to decide whether oom_score_adj
update should be synchronized between multiple processes.  To prevent
races between clone() and __set_oom_adj(), when oom_score_adj of the
process being cloned might be modified from userspace, we use
oom_adj_mutex.  Its scope is changed to global.

The combination of (CLONE_VM &amp;&amp; !CLONE_THREAD) is rarely used except for
the case of vfork().  To prevent performance regressions of vfork(), we
skip taking oom_adj_mutex and setting MMF_MULTIPROCESS when CLONE_VFORK is
specified.  Clearing the MMF_MULTIPROCESS flag (when the last process
sharing the mm exits) is left out of this patch to keep it simple and
because it is believed that this threading model is rare.  Should there
ever be a need for optimizing that case as well, it can be done by hooking
into the exit path, likely following the mm_update_next_owner pattern.

With the combination of (CLONE_VM &amp;&amp; !CLONE_THREAD &amp;&amp; !CLONE_VFORK) being
quite rare, the regression is gone after the change is applied.

[ Upstream commit 1bf4580e00a248a2c86269125390eb3648e1877c ]

Commit 5eed6f1dff87 ("fork,memcg: fix crash in free_thread_stack on
memcg charge fail") corrected two instances, but there was a third
instance of this bug.

Without setting tsk-&gt;stack, if memcg_charge_kernel_stack fails, it'll
execute free_thread_stack() on a dangling pointer.

Enterprise kernels are compiled with VMAP_STACK=y so this isn't
critical, but custom VMAP_STACK=n builds should have some performance
advantage, with the drawback of risking to fail fork because compaction
didn't succeed.  So as long as VMAP_STACK=n is a supported option it's
worth fixing it upstream.

Commit 5eed6f1dff87 ("fork,memcg: fix crash in free_thread_stack on

the kernel stack.  However the fix misses the cached_stacks case which
this patch fixes.  So, the same crash can happen if the memcg charge of
a cached stack is failed.

[ Upstream commit 5eed6f1dff87bfb5e545935def3843edf42800f2 ]

Commit 9b6f7e163cd0 ("mm: rework memcg kernel stack accounting") will
result in fork failing if allocating a kernel stack for a task in
dup_task_struct exceeds the kernel memory allowance for that cgroup.

Unfortunately, it also results in a crash.

This is due to the code jumping to free_stack and calling
free_thread_stack when the memcg kernel stack charge fails, but without
tsk-&gt;stack pointing at the freshly allocated stack.

This in turn results in the vfree_atomic in free_thread_stack oopsing
with a backtrace like this:

[ Upstream commit fb5bf31722d0805a3f394f7d59f2e8cd07acccb7 ]

We get a warning when building kernel with W=1:

  kernel/fork.c:167:13: warning: no previous prototype for `arch_release_thread_stack' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
  kernel/fork.c:779:13: warning: no previous prototype for `fork_init' [-Wmissing-prototypes]

Add the missing declaration in head file to fix this.

Also, remove arch_release_thread_stack() completely because no arch
seems to implement it since bb9d81264 (arch: remove tile port).
