Linus Torvalds dad4f140ed Merge branch 'xarray' of git://git.infradead.org/users/willy/linux-dax
Pull XArray conversion from Matthew Wilcox:
 "The XArray provides an improved interface to the radix tree data
  structure, providing locking as part of the API, specifying GFP flags
  at allocation time, eliminating preloading, less re-walking the tree,
  more efficient iterations and not exposing RCU-protected pointers to
  its users.

  This patch set

   1. Introduces the XArray implementation

   2. Converts the pagecache to use it

   3. Converts memremap to use it

  The page cache is the most complex and important user of the radix
  tree, so converting it was most important. Converting the memremap
  code removes the only other user of the multiorder code, which allows
  us to remove the radix tree code that supported it.

  I have 40+ followup patches to convert many other users of the radix
  tree over to the XArray, but I'd like to get this part in first. The
  other conversions haven't been in linux-next and aren't suitable for
  applying yet, but you can see them in the xarray-conv branch if you're
  interested"

Johannes Weiner 4b85afbdac mm: zero-seek shrinkers
The page cache and most shrinkable slab caches hold data that has been
read from disk, but there are some caches that only cache CPU work, such
as the dentry and inode caches of procfs and sysfs, as well as the subset
of radix tree nodes that track non-resident page cache.

Currently, all these are shrunk at the same rate: using DEFAULT_SEEKS for
the shrinker's seeks setting tells the reclaim algorithm that for every
two page cache pages scanned it should scan one slab object.

This is a bogus setting.  A virtual inode that required no IO to create is
not twice as valuable as a page cache page; shadow cache entries with
eviction distances beyond the size of memory aren't either.

In most cases, the behavior in practice is still fine.  Such virtual
caches don't tend to grow and assert themselves aggressively, and usually
get picked up before they cause problems.  But there are scenarios where
that's not true.

Our database workloads suffer from two of those.  For one, their file
workingset is several times bigger than available memory, which has the
kernel aggressively create shadow page cache entries for the non-resident
parts of it.  The workingset code does tell the VM that most of these are
expendable, but the VM ends up balancing them 2:1 to cache pages as per
the seeks setting.  This is a huge waste of memory.

These workloads also deal with tens of thousands of open files and use
/proc for introspection, which ends up growing the proc_inode_cache to
absurdly large sizes - again at the cost of valuable cache space, which
isn't a reasonable trade-off, given that proc inodes can be re-created
without involving the disk.

This patch implements a "zero-seek" setting for shrinkers that results in
a target ratio of 0:1 between their objects and IO-backed caches.  This
allows such virtual caches to grow when memory is available (they do
cache/avoid CPU work after all), but effectively disables them as soon as
IO-backed objects are under pressure.

It then switches the shrinkers for procfs and sysfs metadata, as well as
excess page cache shadow nodes, to the new zero-seek setting.

Johannes Weiner eb414681d5 psi: pressure stall information for CPU, memory, and IO
When systems are overcommitted and resources become contended, it's hard
to tell exactly the impact this has on workload productivity, or how close
the system is to lockups and OOM kills.  In particular, when machines work
multiple jobs concurrently, the impact of overcommit in terms of latency
and throughput on the individual job can be enormous.

In order to maximize hardware utilization without sacrificing individual
job health or risk complete machine lockups, this patch implements a way
to quantify resource pressure in the system.

A kernel built with CONFIG_PSI=y creates files in /proc/pressure/ that
expose the percentage of time the system is stalled on CPU, memory, or IO,
respectively.  Stall states are aggregate versions of the per-task delay
accounting delays:

       cpu: some tasks are runnable but not executing on a CPU
       memory: tasks are reclaiming, or waiting for swapin or thrashing cache
       io: tasks are waiting for io completions

These percentages of walltime can be thought of as pressure percentages,
and they give a general sense of system health and productivity loss
incurred by resource overcommit.  They can also indicate when the system
is approaching lockup scenarios and OOMs.

To do this, psi keeps track of the task states associated with each CPU
and samples the time they spend in stall states.  Every 2 seconds, the
samples are averaged across CPUs - weighted by the CPUs' non-idle time to
eliminate artifacts from unused CPUs - and translated into percentages of
walltime.  A running average of those percentages is maintained over 10s,
1m, and 5m periods (similar to the loadaverage).

Johannes Weiner 1899ad18c6 mm: workingset: tell cache transitions from workingset thrashing
Refaults happen during transitions between workingsets as well as in-place
thrashing.  Knowing the difference between the two has a range of
applications, including measuring the impact of memory shortage on the
system performance, as well as the ability to smarter balance pressure
between the filesystem cache and the swap-backed workingset.

During workingset transitions, inactive cache refaults and pushes out
established active cache.  When that active cache isn't stale, however,
and also ends up refaulting, that's bonafide thrashing.

Introduce a new page flag that tells on eviction whether the page has been
active or not in its lifetime.  This bit is then stored in the shadow
entry, to classify refaults as transitioning or thrashing.

How many page->flags does this leave us with on 32-bit?

	20 bits are always page flags

	21 if you have an MMU

	23 with the zone bits for DMA, Normal, HighMem, Movable

	29 with the sparsemem section bits

	30 if PAE is enabled

	31 with this patch.

So on 32-bit PAE, that leaves 1 bit for distinguishing two NUMA nodes.  If
that's not enough, the system can switch to discontigmem and re-gain the 6
or 7 sparsemem section bits.

Roman Gushchin 68600f623d mm: don't miss the last page because of round-off error
I've noticed, that dying memory cgroups are often pinned in memory by a
single pagecache page.  Even under moderate memory pressure they sometimes
stayed in such state for a long time.  That looked strange.

My investigation showed that the problem is caused by applying the LRU
pressure balancing math:

  scan = div64_u64(scan * fraction[lru], denominator),

where

  denominator = fraction[anon] + fraction[file] + 1.

Because fraction[lru] is always less than denominator, if the initial scan
size is 1, the result is always 0.

This means the last page is not scanned and has
no chances to be reclaimed.

Fix this by rounding up the result of the division.

In practice this change significantly improves the speed of dying cgroups
reclaim.

Kirill Tkhai b8e57efa2c mm/vmscan.c: fix int overflow in callers of do_shrink_slab()
do_shrink_slab() returns unsigned long value, and the placing into int
variable cuts high bytes off.  Then we compare ret and 0xfffffffe (since
SHRINK_EMPTY is converted to ret type).

Thus a large number of objects returned by do_shrink_slab() may be
interpreted as SHRINK_EMPTY, if low bytes of their value are equal to
0xfffffffe.  Fix that by declaration ret as unsigned long in these
functions.

Roman Gushchin 172b06c32b mm: slowly shrink slabs with a relatively small number of objects
9092c71bb7 ("mm: use sc->priority for slab shrink targets") changed the
way that the target slab pressure is calculated and made it
priority-based:

    delta = freeable >> priority;
    delta *= 4;
    do_div(delta, shrinker->seeks);

The problem is that on a default priority (which is 12) no pressure is
applied at all, if the number of potentially reclaimable objects is less
than 4096 (1<<12).

This causes the last objects on slab caches of no longer used cgroups to
(almost) never get reclaimed.  It's obviously a waste of memory.

It can be especially painful, if these stale objects are holding a
reference to a dying cgroup.  Slab LRU lists are reparented on memcg
offlining, but corresponding objects are still holding a reference to the
dying cgroup.  If we don't scan these objects, the dying cgroup can't go
away.  Most likely, the parent cgroup hasn't any directly charged objects,
only remaining objects from dying children cgroups.  So it can easily hold
a reference to hundreds of dying cgroups.

If there are no big spikes in memory pressure, and new memory cgroups are
created and destroyed periodically, this causes the number of dying
cgroups grow steadily, causing a slow-ish and hard-to-detect memory
"leak".  It's not a real leak, as the memory can be eventually reclaimed,
but it could not happen in a real life at all.  I've seen hosts with a
steadily climbing number of dying cgroups, which doesn't show any signs of
a decline in months, despite the host is loaded with a production
workload.

It is an obvious waste of memory, and to prevent it, let's apply a minimal
pressure even on small shrinker lists.  E.g.  if there are freeable
objects, let's scan at least min(freeable, scan_batch) objects.

This fix significantly improves a chance of a dying cgroup to be
reclaimed, and together with some previous patches stops the steady growth
of the dying cgroups number on some of our hosts.

Kirill Tkhai 8df4a44cc4 mm: check shrinker is memcg-aware in register_shrinker_prepared()
There is a sad BUG introduced in patch adding SHRINKER_REGISTERING.
shrinker_idr business is only for memcg-aware shrinkers.  Only such type
of shrinkers have id and they must be finaly installed via idr_replace()
in this function.  For !memcg-aware shrinkers we never initialize
shrinker->id field.

But there are all types of shrinkers passed to idr_replace(), and every
!memcg-aware shrinker with random ID (most probably, its id is 0)
replaces memcg-aware shrinker pointed by the ID in IDR.

This patch fixes the problem.

Kirill Tkhai 7e010df53c mm: use special value SHRINKER_REGISTERING instead of list_empty() check
The patch introduces a special value SHRINKER_REGISTERING to use instead
of list_empty() to differ a registering shrinker from unregistered
shrinker.  Why we need that at all?

Shrinker registration is split in two parts.  The first one is
prealloc_shrinker(), which allocates shrinker memory and reserves ID in
shrinker_idr.  This function can fail.  The second is
register_shrinker_prepared(), and it finalizes the registration.  This
function actually makes shrinker available to be used from
shrink_slab(), and it can't fail.

One shrinker may be based on more then one LRU lists.  So, we never
clear the bit in memcg shrinker maps, when (one of) corresponding LRU
list becomes empty, since other LRU lists may be not empty.  See
superblock shrinker for example: it is based on two LRU lists:
s_inode_lru and s_dentry_lru.  We do not want to clear shrinker bit,
when there are no inodes in s_inode_lru, as s_dentry_lru may contain
dentries.

Instead of that, we use special algorithm to detect shrinkers having no
elements at all its LRU lists, and this is made in shrink_slab_memcg().
See the comment in this function for the details.

Also, in shrink_slab_memcg() we clear shrinker bit in the map, when we
meet unregistered shrinker (bit is set, while there is no a shrinker in
IDR).  Otherwise, we would have done that at the moment of shrinker
unregistration for all memcgs (and this looks worse, since iteration
over all memcg may take much time).  Also this would have imposed
restrictions on shrinker unregistration order for its users: they would
have had to guarantee, there are no new elements after
unregister_shrinker() (otherwise, a new added element would have set a
bit).

So, if we meet a set bit in map and no shrinker in IDR when we're
iterating over the map in shrink_slab_memcg(), this means the
corresponding shrinker is unregistered, and we must clear the bit.

Another case is shrinker registration.  We want two things there:

1) do_shrink_slab() can be called only for completely registered
   shrinkers;

2) shrinker internal lists may be populated in any order with
   register_shrinker_prepared() (let's talk on the example with sb).  Both
   of:

  a)list_lru_add(&inode->i_sb->s_inode_lru, &inode->i_lru); [cpu0]
    memcg_set_shrinker_bit();                               [cpu0]
    ...
    register_shrinker_prepared();                           [cpu1]

  and

  b)register_shrinker_prepared();                           [cpu0]
    ...
    list_lru_add(&inode->i_sb->s_inode_lru, &inode->i_lru); [cpu1]
    memcg_set_shrinker_bit();                               [cpu1]

   are legitimate.  We don't want to impose restriction here and to
   force people to use only (b) variant.  We don't want to force people to
   care, there is no elements in LRU lists before the shrinker is
   completely registered.  Internal users of LRU lists and shrinker code
   are two different subsystems, and they have to be closed in themselves
   each other.

In (a) case we have the bit set before shrinker is completely
registered.  We don't want do_shrink_slab() is called at this moment, so
we have to detect such the registering shrinkers.

Before this patch list_empty() (shrinker is not linked to the list)
check was used for that.  So, in (a) there could be a bit set, but we
don't call do_shrink_slab() unless shrinker is linked to the list.  It's
just an indicator, I just overloaded linking to the list.

This was not the best solution, since it's better not to touch the
shrinker memory from shrink_slab_memcg() before it's completely
registered (this also will be useful in the future to make shrink_slab()
completely lockless).

So, this patch introduces better way to detect registering shrinker,
which allows not to dereference shrinker memory.  It's just a ~0UL
value, which we insert into the IDR during ID allocation.  After
shrinker is ready to be used, we insert actual shrinker pointer in the
IDR, and it becomes available to shrink_slab_memcg().

We can't use NULL instead of this new value for this purpose as:
shrink_slab_memcg() already uses NULL to detect unregistered shrinkers,
and we don't want the function sees NULL and clears the bit, otherwise
(a) won't work.

This is the only thing the patch makes: the better way to detect
registering shrinker.  Nothing else this patch makes.

Also this gives a better assembler, but it's minor side of the patch:

Before:
  callq  <idr_find>
  mov    %rax,%r15
  test   %rax,%rax
  je     <shrink_slab_memcg+0x1d5>
  mov    0x20(%rax),%rax
  lea    0x20(%r15),%rdx

workingset shrinker), but something may change in the future.

Kirill Tkhai f90280d6b7 mm/vmscan.c: clear shrinker bit if there are no objects related to memcg
To avoid further unneed calls of do_shrink_slab() for shrinkers, which
already do not have any charged objects in a memcg, their bits have to
be cleared.

This patch introduces a lockless mechanism to do that without races
without parallel list lru add.  After do_shrink_slab() returns
SHRINK_EMPTY the first time, we clear the bit and call it once again.
Then we restore the bit, if the new return value is different.

Note, that single smp_mb__after_atomic() in shrink_slab_memcg() covers
two situations:

1)list_lru_add()     shrink_slab_memcg
    list_add_tail()    for_each_set_bit() <--- read bit
                         do_shrink_slab() <--- missed list update (no barrier)
    <MB>                 <MB>
    set_bit()            do_shrink_slab() <--- seen list update

This situation, when the first do_shrink_slab() sees set bit, but it
doesn't see list update (i.e., race with the first element queueing), is
rare.  So we don't add <MB> before the first call of do_shrink_slab()
instead of this to do not slow down generic case.  Also, it's need the
second call as seen in below in (2).

2)list_lru_add()      shrink_slab_memcg()
    list_add_tail()     ...
    set_bit()           ...
  ...                   for_each_set_bit()
  do_shrink_slab()        do_shrink_slab()
    clear_bit()           ...
  ...                     ...
  list_lru_add()          ...
    list_add_tail()       clear_bit()
    <MB>                  <MB>
    set_bit()             do_shrink_slab()

The barriers guarantee that the second do_shrink_slab() in the right
side task sees list update if really cleared the bit.  This case is
drawn in the code comment.

[Results/performance of the patchset]

After the whole patchset applied the below test shows signify increase
of performance:

  $echo 1 > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/memory.use_hierarchy
  $mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/ct
  $echo 4000M > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/ct/memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes
      $for i in `seq 0 4000`; do mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/ct/$i;
			    echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/ct/$i/cgroup.procs;
			    mkdir -p s/$i; mount -t tmpfs $i s/$i;
			    touch s/$i/file; done

Then, 5 sequential calls of drop caches:

  $time echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

1)Before:
  0.00user 13.78system 0:13.78elapsed 99%CPU

Kirill Tkhai 9b996468cf mm: add SHRINK_EMPTY shrinker methods return value
We need to distinguish the situations when shrinker has very small
amount of objects (see vfs_pressure_ratio() called from
super_cache_count()), and when it has no objects at all.  Currently, in
the both of these cases, shrinker::count_objects() returns 0.

The patch introduces new SHRINK_EMPTY return value, which will be used
for "no objects at all" case.  It's is a refactoring mostly, as
SHRINK_EMPTY is replaced by 0 by all callers of do_shrink_slab() in this
patch, and all the magic will happen in further.

Vladimir Davydov aeed1d325d mm/vmscan.c: generalize shrink_slab() calls in shrink_node()
The patch makes shrink_slab() be called for root_mem_cgroup in the same
way as it's called for the rest of cgroups.  This simplifies the logic
and improves the readability.

Kirill Tkhai b0dedc49a2 mm/vmscan.c: iterate only over charged shrinkers during memcg shrink_slab()
Using the preparations made in previous patches, in case of memcg
shrink, we may avoid shrinkers, which are not set in memcg's shrinkers
bitmap.  To do that, we separate iterations over memcg-aware and
!memcg-aware shrinkers, and memcg-aware shrinkers are chosen via
for_each_set_bit() from the bitmap.  In case of big nodes, having many
isolated environments, this gives significant performance growth.  See
next patches for the details.

Note that the patch does not respect to empty memcg shrinkers, since we
never clear the bitmap bits after we set it once.  Their shrinkers will
be called again, with no shrinked objects as result.  This functionality
is provided by next patches.

Kirill Tkhai 0a4465d340 mm, memcg: assign memcg-aware shrinkers bitmap to memcg
Imagine a big node with many cpus, memory cgroups and containers.  Let
we have 200 containers, every container has 10 mounts, and 10 cgroups.
All container tasks don't touch foreign containers mounts.  If there is
intensive pages write, and global reclaim happens, a writing task has to
iterate over all memcgs to shrink slab, before it's able to go to
shrink_page_list().

Iteration over all the memcg slabs is very expensive: the task has to
visit 200 * 10 = 2000 shrinkers for every memcg, and since there are
2000 memcgs, the total calls are 2000 * 2000 = 4000000.

So, the shrinker makes 4 million do_shrink_slab() calls just to try to
isolate SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pages in one of the actively writing memcg via
shrink_page_list().  I've observed a node spending almost 100% in
kernel, making useless iteration over already shrinked slab.

This patch adds bitmap of memcg-aware shrinkers to memcg.  The size of
the bitmap depends on bitmap_nr_ids, and during memcg life it's
maintained to be enough to fit bitmap_nr_ids shrinkers.  Every bit in
the map is related to corresponding shrinker id.

Next patches will maintain set bit only for really charged memcg.  This
will allow shrink_slab() to increase its performance in significant way.
See the last patch for the numbers.

Kirill Tkhai b4c2b231c3 mm: assign id to every memcg-aware shrinker
Introduce shrinker::id number, which is used to enumerate memcg-aware
shrinkers.  The number start from 0, and the code tries to maintain it
as small as possible.

This will be used to represent a memcg-aware shrinkers in memcg
shrinkers map.

Since all memcg-aware shrinkers are based on list_lru, which is
per-memcg in case of !CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM only, the new functionality will
be under this config option.

Greg Thelen bb451fdf3d mm/vmscan.c: condense scan_control
Use smaller scan_control fields for order, priority, and reclaim_idx.
Convert fields from int => s8.  All easily fit within a byte:

 - allocation order range: 0..MAX_ORDER(64?)
 - priority range:         0..12(DEF_PRIORITY)
 - reclaim_idx range:      0..6(__MAX_NR_ZONES)

Since 6538b8ea88 ("x86_64: expand kernel stack to 16K") x86_64 stack
overflows are not an issue.  But it's inefficient to use ints.

Use s8 (signed byte) rather than u8 to allow for loops like:
	do {
		...
	} while (--sc.priority >= 0);

Add BUILD_BUG_ON to verify that s8 is capable of storing max values.

This reduces sizeof(struct scan_control):
 - 96 => 80 bytes (x86_64)
 - 68 => 56 bytes (i386)

scan_control structure field order is changed to utilize padding.  After
this patch there is 1 bit of scan_control padding.

akpm: makes my vmscan.o's .text 572 bytes smaller as well.

protecting working sets of important workloads from sudden reclaim.

But its semantics has a significant limitation: it works only as long as
there is a supply of reclaimable memory.  This makes it pretty useless
against any sort of slow memory leaks or memory usage increases.  This
is especially true for swapless systems.  If swap is enabled, memory
soft protection effectively postpones problems, allowing a leaking
application to fill all swap area, which makes no sense.  The only
effective way to guarantee the memory protection in this case is to
invoke the OOM killer.

It's possible to handle this case in userspace by reacting on MEMCG_LOW
events; but there is still a place for a fail-safe in-kernel mechanism
to provide stronger guarantees.

This patch introduces the memory.min interface for cgroup v2 memory
controller.  It works very similarly to memory.low (sharing the same
hierarchical behavior), except that it's not disabled if there is no
more reclaimable memory in the system.

If cgroup is not populated, its memory.min is ignored, because otherwise
even the OOM killer wouldn't be able to reclaim the protected memory,
and the system can stall.

Omar Sandoval 93781325da lockdep: fix fs_reclaim annotation
While revisiting my Btrfs swapfile series [1], I introduced a situation
in which reclaim would lock i_rwsem, and even though the swapon() path
clearly made GFP_KERNEL allocations while holding i_rwsem, I got no
complaints from lockdep.  It turns out that the rework of the fs_reclaim
annotation was broken: if the current task has PF_MEMALLOC set, we don't
acquire the dummy fs_reclaim lock, but when reclaiming we always check
this _after_ we've just set the PF_MEMALLOC flag.  In most cases, we can
fix this by moving the fs_reclaim_{acquire,release}() outside of the
memalloc_noreclaim_{save,restore}(), althought kswapd is slightly
different.  After applying this, I got the expected lockdep splats.

Hugh Dickins 145e1a71e0 mm: fix the NULL mapping case in __isolate_lru_page()
George Boole would have noticed a slight error in 4.16 commit
69d763fc6d ("mm: pin address_space before dereferencing it while
isolating an LRU page").  Fix it, to match both the comment above it,
and the original behaviour.

Although anonymous pages are not marked PageDirty at first, we have an
old habit of calling SetPageDirty when a page is removed from swap
cache: so there's a category of ex-swap pages that are easily
migratable, but were inadvertently excluded from compaction's async
migration in 4.16.

Tetsuo Handa 8e04944f0e mm,vmscan: Allow preallocating memory for register_shrinker().
syzbot is catching so many bugs triggered by commit 9ee332d99e
("sget(): handle failures of register_shrinker()"). That commit expected
that calling kill_sb() from deactivate_locked_super() without successful
fill_super() is safe, but the reality was different; some callers assign
attributes which are needed for kill_sb() after sget() succeeds.

For example, [1] is a report where sb->s_mode (which seems to be either
FMODE_READ | FMODE_EXCL | FMODE_WRITE or FMODE_READ | FMODE_EXCL) is not
assigned unless sget() succeeds. But it does not worth complicate sget()
so that register_shrinker() failure path can safely call
kill_block_super() via kill_sb(). Making alloc_super() fail if memory
allocation for register_shrinker() failed is much simpler. Let's avoid
calling deactivate_locked_super() from sget_userns() by preallocating
memory for the shrinker and making register_shrinker() in sget_userns()
never fail.

Matthew Wilcox b93b016313 page cache: use xa_lock
Remove the address_space ->tree_lock and use the xa_lock newly added to
the radix_tree_root.  Rename the address_space ->page_tree to ->i_pages,
since we don't really care that it's a tree.
