mm: mmap_lock: add tracepoints around lock acquisition
The goal of these tracepoints is to be able to debug lock contention issues. This lock is acquired on most (all?) mmap / munmap / page fault operations, so a multi-threaded process which does a lot of these can experience significant contention. We trace just before we start acquisition, when the acquisition returns (whether it succeeded or not), and when the lock is released (or downgraded). The events are broken out by lock type (read / write). The events are also broken out by memcg path. For container-based workloads, users often think of several processes in a memcg as a single logical "task", so collecting statistics at this level is useful. The end goal is to get latency information. This isn't directly included in the trace events. Instead, users are expected to compute the time between "start locking" and "acquire returned", using e.g. synthetic events or BPF. The benefit we get from this is simpler code. Because we use tracepoint_enabled() to decide whether or not to trace, this patch has effectively no overhead unless tracepoints are enabled at runtime. If tracepoints are enabled, there is a performance impact, but how much depends on exactly what e.g. the BPF program does.

mm/gup_benchmark: rename to mm/gup_test
Patch series "selftests/vm: gup_test, hmm-tests, assorted improvements", v3. Summary: This series provides two main things, and a number of smaller supporting goodies. The two main points are: 1) Add a new sub-test to gup_test, which in turn is a renamed version of gup_benchmark. This sub-test allows nicer testing of dump_pages(), at least on user-space pages. For quite a while, I was doing a quick hack to gup_test.c whenever I wanted to try out changes to dump_page(). Then Matthew Wilcox asked me what I meant when I said "I used my dump_page() unit test", and I realized that it might be nice to check in a polished up version of that. Details about how it works and how to use it are in the commit description for patch #6 ("selftests/vm: gup_test: introduce the dump_pages() sub-test"). 2) Fixes a limitation of hmm-tests: these tests are incredibly useful, but only if people actually build and run them. And it turns out that libhugetlbfs is a little too effective at throwing a wrench in the works, there. So I've added a little configuration check that removes just two of the 21 hmm-tests, if libhugetlbfs is not available. Further details in the commit description of patch #8 ("selftests/vm: hmm-tests: remove the libhugetlbfs dependency"). Other smaller things that this series does: a) Remove code duplication by creating gup_test.h. b) Clear up the sub-test organization, and their invocation within run_vmtests.sh. c) Other minor assorted improvements. [1] v2 is here: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-doc/20200929212747.251804-1-jhubbard@nvidia.com/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/r/CAHk-=wgh-TMPHLY3jueHX7Y2fWh3D+nMBqVS__AZm6-oorquWA@mail.gmail.com This patch (of 9): Rename nearly every "gup_benchmark" reference and file name to "gup_test". The one exception is for the actual gup benchmark test itself. The current code already does a *little* bit more than benchmarking, and definitely covers more than get_user_pages_fast(). More importantly, however, subsequent patches are about to add some functionality that is non-benchmark related. Closely related changes: * Kconfig: in addition to renaming the options from GUP_BENCHMARK to GUP_TEST, update the help text to reflect that it's no longer a benchmark-only test.

Merge tag 'locking-kcsan-2020-06-11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull the Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer from Thomas Gleixner:
"The Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer (KCSAN) is a dynamic race detector,
which relies on compile-time instrumentation, and uses a
watchpoint-based sampling approach to detect races.
The feature was under development for quite some time and has already
found legitimate bugs.
Unfortunately it comes with a limitation, which was only understood
late in the development cycle:
It requires an up to date CLANG-11 compiler
CLANG-11 is not yet released (scheduled for June), but it's the only
compiler today which handles the kernel requirements and especially
the annotations of functions to exclude them from KCSAN
instrumentation correctly.
These annotations really need to work so that low level entry code and
especially int3 text poke handling can be completely isolated.
A detailed discussion of the requirements and compiler issues can be
found here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CANpmjNMTsY_8241bS7=XAfqvZHFLrVEkv_uM4aDUWE_kh3Rvbw@mail.gmail.com/
We came to the conclusion that trying to work around compiler
limitations and bugs again would end up in a major trainwreck, so
requiring a working compiler seemed to be the best choice.
For Continous Integration purposes the compiler restriction is
manageable and that's where most xxSAN reports come from.
For a change this limitation might make GCC people actually look at
their bugs. Some issues with CSAN in GCC are 7 years old and one has
been 'fixed' 3 years ago with a half baken solution which 'solved' the
reported issue but not the underlying problem.
The KCSAN developers also ponder to use a GCC plugin to become
independent, but that's not something which will show up in a few
days.
Blocking KCSAN until wide spread compiler support is available is not
a really good alternative because the continuous growth of lockless
optimizations in the kernel demands proper tooling support"

mm/debug: add tests validating architecture page table helpers
This adds tests which will validate architecture page table helpers and other accessors in their compliance with expected generic MM semantics. This will help various architectures in validating changes to existing page table helpers or addition of new ones. This test covers basic page table entry transformations including but not limited to old, young, dirty, clean, write, write protect etc at various level along with populating intermediate entries with next page table page and validating them. Test page table pages are allocated from system memory with required size and alignments. The mapped pfns at page table levels are derived from a real pfn representing a valid kernel text symbol. This test gets called via late_initcall(). This test gets built and run when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGTABLE is selected. Any architecture, which is willing to subscribe this test will need to select ARCH_HAS_DEBUG_VM_PGTABLE. For now this is limited to arc, arm64, x86, s390 and powerpc platforms where the test is known to build and run successfully Going forward, other architectures too can subscribe the test after fixing any build or runtime problems with their page table helpers. Folks interested in making sure that a given platform's page table helpers conform to expected generic MM semantics should enable the above config which will just trigger this test during boot. Any non conformity here will be reported as an warning which would need to be fixed. This test will help catch any changes to the agreed upon semantics expected from generic MM and enable platforms to accommodate it thereafter.

mm: introduce Reported pages
In order to pave the way for free page reporting in virtualized environments we will need a way to get pages out of the free lists and identify those pages after they have been returned. To accomplish this, this patch adds the concept of a Reported Buddy, which is essentially meant to just be the Uptodate flag used in conjunction with the Buddy page type. To prevent the reported pages from leaking outside of the buddy lists I added a check to clear the PageReported bit in the del_page_from_free_list function. As a result any reported page that is split, merged, or allocated will have the flag cleared prior to the PageBuddy value being cleared. The process for reporting pages is fairly simple. Once we free a page that meets the minimum order for page reporting we will schedule a worker thread to start 2s or more in the future. That worker thread will begin working from the lowest supported page reporting order up to MAX_ORDER - 1 pulling unreported pages from the free list and storing them in the scatterlist. When processing each individual free list it is necessary for the worker thread to release the zone lock when it needs to stop and report the full scatterlist of pages. To reduce the work of the next iteration the worker thread will rotate the free list so that the first unreported page in the free list becomes the first entry in the list. It will then call a reporting function providing information on how many entries are in the scatterlist. Once the function completes it will return the pages to the free area from which they were allocated and start over pulling more pages from the free areas until there are no longer enough pages to report on to keep the worker busy, or we have processed as many pages as were contained in the free area when we started processing the list. The worker thread will work in a round-robin fashion making its way though each zone requesting reporting, and through each reportable free list within that zone. Once all free areas within the zone have been processed it will check to see if there have been any requests for reporting while it was processing. If so it will reschedule the worker thread to start up again in roughly 2s and exit.

Kmemleak could scan task stacks while plain writes happens to those stack variables which could results in data races. For example, in sys_rt_sigaction and do_sigaction(), it could have plain writes in a 32-byte size. Since the kmemleak does not care about the actual values of a non-pointer and all do_sigaction() call sites only copy to stack variables, just disable KCSAN for kmemleak to avoid annotating anything outside Kmemleak just because Kmemleak scans everything.

kcov: ignore fault-inject and stacktrace
Don't instrument 3 more files that contain debugging facilities and produce large amounts of uninteresting coverage for every syscall. The following snippets are sprinkled all over the place in kcov traces in a debugging kernel. We already try to disable instrumentation of stack unwinding code and of most debug facilities. I guess we did not use fault-inject.c at the time, and stacktrace.c was somehow missed (or something has changed in kernel/configs). This change both speeds up kcov (kernel doesn't need to store these PCs, user-space doesn't need to process them) and frees trace buffer capacity for more useful coverage. should_fail lib/fault-inject.c:149 fail_dump lib/fault-inject.c:45 stack_trace_save kernel/stacktrace.c:124 stack_trace_consume_entry kernel/stacktrace.c:86 stack_trace_consume_entry kernel/stacktrace.c:89 ... a hundred frames skipped ... stack_trace_consume_entry kernel/stacktrace.c:93 stack_trace_consume_entry kernel/stacktrace.c:86 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200116111449.217744-1-dvyukov@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Reviewed-by: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

mm: Add write-protect and clean utilities for address space ranges
Add two utilities to 1) write-protect and 2) clean all ptes pointing into a range of an address space. The utilities are intended to aid in tracking dirty pages (either driver-allocated system memory or pci device memory). The write-protect utility should be used in conjunction with page_mkwrite() and pfn_mkwrite() to trigger write page-faults on page accesses. Typically one would want to use this on sparse accesses into large memory regions. The clean utility should be used to utilize hardware dirtying functionality and avoid the overhead of page-faults, typically on large accesses into small memory regions.

mm: silence -Woverride-init/initializer-overrides
When compiling a kernel with W=1, there are several of those warnings due
to arm64 overriding a field on purpose. Just disable those warnings for
both GCC and Clang of this file, so it will help dig "gems" hidden in the
W=1 warnings by reducing some noises.
mm/init-mm.c:39:2: warning: initializer overrides prior initialization
of this subobject [-Winitializer-overrides]
INIT_MM_CONTEXT(init_mm)
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
./arch/arm64/include/asm/mmu.h:133:9: note: expanded from macro
'INIT_MM_CONTEXT'
.pgd = init_pg_dir,
^~~~~~~~~~~
mm/init-mm.c:30:10: note: previous initialization is here
.pgd = swapper_pg_dir,
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Note: there is a side project trying to support explicitly allowing
specific initializer overrides in Clang, but there is no guarantee it
will happen or not.

mm: remove quicklist page table caches
Patch series "mm: remove quicklist page table caches". A while ago Nicholas proposed to remove quicklist page table caches [1]. I've rebased his patch on the curren upstream and switched ia64 and sh to use generic versions of PTE allocation. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190711030339.20892-1-npiggin@gmail.com This patch (of 3): Remove page table allocator "quicklists". These have been around for a long time, but have not got much traction in the last decade and are only used on ia64 and sh architectures. The numbers in the initial commit look interesting but probably don't apply anymore. If anybody wants to resurrect this it's in the git history, but it's unhelpful to have this code and divergent allocator behaviour for minor archs. Also it might be better to instead make more general improvements to page allocator if this is still so slow.

Merge tag 'for-linus-hmm' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rdma/rdma
Pull HMM updates from Jason Gunthorpe:
"Improvements and bug fixes for the hmm interface in the kernel:
- Improve clarity, locking and APIs related to the 'hmm mirror'
feature merged last cycle. In linux-next we now see AMDGPU and
nouveau to be using this API.
- Remove old or transitional hmm APIs. These are hold overs from the
past with no users, or APIs that existed only to manage cross tree
conflicts. There are still a few more of these cleanups that didn't
make the merge window cut off.
- Improve some core mm APIs:
- export alloc_pages_vma() for driver use
- refactor into devm_request_free_mem_region() to manage
DEVICE_PRIVATE resource reservations
- refactor duplicative driver code into the core dev_pagemap
struct
- Remove hmm wrappers of improved core mm APIs, instead have drivers
use the simplified API directly
- Remove DEVICE_PUBLIC
- Simplify the kconfig flow for the hmm users and core code"

mm: consolidate the get_user_pages* implementations
Always build mm/gup.c so that we don't have to provide separate nommu stubs. Also merge the get_user_pages_fast and __get_user_pages_fast stubs when HAVE_FAST_GUP into the main implementations, which will never call the fast path if HAVE_FAST_GUP is not set. This also ensures the new put_user_pages* helpers are available for nommu, as those are currently missing, which would create a problem as soon as we actually grew users for it.

mm: remove the HMM config option
All the mm/hmm.c code is better keyed off HMM_MIRROR. Also let nouveau depend on it instead of the mix of a dummy dependency symbol plus the actually selected one.

mm: shuffle initial free memory to improve memory-side-cache utilization
Patch series "mm: Randomize free memory", v10.
This patch (of 3):
Randomization of the page allocator improves the average utilization of
a direct-mapped memory-side-cache. Memory side caching is a platform
capability that Linux has been previously exposed to in HPC
(high-performance computing) environments on specialty platforms. In
that instance it was a smaller pool of high-bandwidth-memory relative to
higher-capacity / lower-bandwidth DRAM. Now, this capability is going
to be found on general purpose server platforms where DRAM is a cache in
front of higher latency persistent memory [1].
Robert offered an explanation of the state of the art of Linux
interactions with memory-side-caches [2], and I copy it here:
It's been a problem in the HPC space:
http://www.nersc.gov/research-and-development/knl-cache-mode-performance-coe/
A kernel module called zonesort is available to try to help:
https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/xeon-phi-software
and this abandoned patch series proposed that for the kernel:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170823100205.17311-1-lukasz.daniluk@intel.com
Dan's patch series doesn't attempt to ensure buffers won't conflict, but
also reduces the chance that the buffers will. This will make performance
more consistent, albeit slower than "optimal" (which is near impossible
to attain in a general-purpose kernel). That's better than forcing
users to deploy remedies like:
"To eliminate this gradual degradation, we have added a Stream
measurement to the Node Health Check that follows each job;
nodes are rebooted whenever their measured memory bandwidth
falls below 300 GB/s."
A replacement for zonesort was merged upstream in commit
