6b65aaf302 slub: Use alloc_pages_exact_node() for page allocation
The alloc_slab_page() in SLUB uses alloc_pages() if node is '-1'.  This means
that node validity check in alloc_pages_node is unnecessary and we can use
alloc_pages_exact_node() to avoid comparison and branch as commit
6484eb3e2a ("page allocator: do not check NUMA node ID when the caller
knows the node is valid") did for the page allocator.

bbd7d57bfe slub: Potential stack overflow
I discovered that we can overflow stack if CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG=y and use slabs
with many objects, since list_slab_objects() and process_slab() use
DECLARE_BITMAP(map, page->objects).

With 65535 bits, we use 8192 bytes of stack ...

Switch these allocations to dynamic allocations.

Now that the last user passing a NULL file pointer is gone we can remove
the redundant dentry argument and associated hacks inside vfs_fsynmc_range.

The next step will be removig the dentry argument from ->fsync, but given

defer this until after the main merge window.

c2c4986edd writeback: fix problem with !CONFIG_BLOCK compilation

mm/page-writeback.c:708: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
mm/page-writeback.c:709: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type

Fix this by essentially eliminating the laptop sync handlers when
CONFIG_BLOCK isn't set, as most are only used from the block layer code.
The exception is laptop_sync_completion() which is used from sys_sync(),
make that an empty declaration in that case.

writeback. This fixes up the sb timer so that it doesn't get

bdi_forker_task() also needs to check for !dirty_writeback_centisecs

b3a27d0529 swap: Add swap slot free callback to block_device_operations
This callback is required when RAM based devices are used as swap disks.
One such device is ramzswap which is used as compressed in-memory swap
disk.  For such devices, we need a callback as soon as a swap slot is no
longer used to allow freeing memory allocated for this slot.  Without this
callback, stale data can quickly accumulate in memory defeating the whole
purpose of such devices.

e913fc825d writeback: fix WB_SYNC_NONE writeback from umount
When umount calls sync_filesystem(), we first do a WB_SYNC_NONE
writeback to kick off writeback of pending dirty inodes, then follow
that up with a WB_SYNC_ALL to wait for it. Since umount already holds
the sb s_umount mutex, WB_SYNC_NONE ends up doing nothing and all
writeback happens as WB_SYNC_ALL. This can greatly slow down umount,
since WB_SYNC_ALL writeback is a data integrity operation and thus
a bigger hammer than simple WB_SYNC_NONE. For barrier aware file systems
it's a lot slower.

747388d78a memcg: fix css_is_ancestor() RCU locking
Some callers (in memcontrol.c) calls css_is_ancestor() without
rcu_read_lock.  Because css_is_ancestor() has to access RCU protected
data, it should be under rcu_read_lock().

This makes css_is_ancestor() itself does safe access to RCU protected
area.  (At least, "root" can have refcnt==0 if it's not an ancestor of
"child".  So, we need rcu_read_lock().)

7f0f154641 memcg: fix css_id() RCU locking for real
Commit ad4ba37537 ("memcg: css_id() must be
called under rcu_read_lock()") modifies memcontol.c for fixing RCU check
message.  But Andrew Morton pointed out that the fix doesn't seems sane
and it was just for hidining lockdep messages.

This is a patch for do proper things.  Checking again, all places,
accessing without rcu_read_lock, that commit fixies was intentional....
all callers of css_id() has reference count on it.  So, it's not necessary
to be under rcu_read_lock().

Considering again, we can use rcu_dereference_check for css_id().  We know
css->id is valid if css->refcnt > 0.  (css->id never changes and freed
after css->refcnt going to be 0.)

This patch makes use of rcu_dereference_check() in css_id/depth and remove
unnecessary rcu-read-lock added by the commit.

ab941e0fff rmap: remove anon_vma check in page_address_in_vma()
Currently page_address_in_vma() compares vma->anon_vma and
page_anon_vma(page) for parameter check, but in 2.6.34 a vma can have
multiple anon_vmas with anon_vma_chain, so current check does not work.
(For anonymous page shared by multiple processes, some verified (page,vma)
pairs return -EFAULT wrongly.)

We can go to checking all anon_vmas in the "same_vma" chain, but it needs
to meet lock requirement.  Instead, we can remove anon_vma check safely
because page_address_in_vma() assumes that page and vma are already
checked to belong to the identical process.

4a6018f7f4 hugetlbfs: kill applications that use MAP_NORESERVE with SIGBUS instead of OOM-killer
Ordinarily, application using hugetlbfs will create mappings with
reserves.  For shared mappings, these pages are reserved before mmap()
returns success and for private mappings, the caller process is guaranteed
and a child process that cannot get the pages gets killed with sigbus.

An application that uses MAP_NORESERVE gets no reservations and mmap()
will always succeed at the risk the page will not be available at fault
time.  This might be used for example on very large sparse mappings where
the developer is confident the necessary huge pages exist to satisfy all
faults even though the whole mapping cannot be backed by huge pages.
Unfortunately, if an allocation does fail, VM_FAULT_OOM is returned to the
fault handler which proceeds to trigger the OOM-killer.  This is
unhelpful.

Even without hugetlbfs mounted, a user using mmap() can trivially trigger
the OOM-killer because VM_FAULT_OOM is returned (will provide example
program if desired - it's a whopping 24 lines long).  It could be
considered a DOS available to an unprivileged user.

This patch alters hugetlbfs to kill a process that uses MAP_NORESERVE
where huge pages were not available with SIGBUS instead of triggering the
OOM killer.

This change affects hugetlb_cow() as well.  I feel there is a failure case
in there, but I didn't create one.  It would need a fairly specific target
in terms of the faulting application and the hugepage pool size.  The
hugetlb_no_page() path is much easier to hit but both might as well be
closed.

b0c9778b1d percpu: implement kernel memory based chunk allocation
Implement an alternate percpu chunk management based on kernel memeory
for nommu SMP architectures.  Instead of mapping into vmalloc area,
chunks are allocated as a contiguous kernel memory using
alloc_pages().  As such, percpu allocator on nommu will have the
following restrictions.

* It can't fill chunks on-demand page-by-page.  It has to allocate
  each chunk fully upfront.

* It can't support sparse chunk for NUMA configurations.  SMP w/o mmu
  is crazy enough.  Let's hope no one does NUMA w/o mmu.  :-P

* If chunk size isn't power-of-two multiple of PAGE_SIZE, the
  unaligned amount will be wasted on each chunk.  So, archs which use
  this better align chunk size.

For instructions on how to use this, read the comment on top of
mm/percpu-km.c.

9f64553256 percpu: move vmalloc based chunk management into percpu-vm.c
Separate out and move chunk management (creation/desctruction and
[de]population) code into percpu-vm.c which is included by percpu.c
and compiled together.  The interface for chunk management is defined
as follows.

 * pcpu_populate_chunk		- populate the specified range of a chunk
 * pcpu_depopulate_chunk	- depopulate the specified range of a chunk
 * pcpu_create_chunk		- create a new chunk
 * pcpu_destroy_chunk		- destroy a chunk, always preceded by full depop
 * pcpu_addr_to_page		- translate address to physical address
 * pcpu_verify_alloc_info	- check alloc_info is acceptable during init

Other than wrapping vmalloc_to_page() inside pcpu_addr_to_page() and
dummy pcpu_verify_alloc_info() implementation, this patch only moves
code around.  This separation is to allow alternate chunk management
implementation.

88999a898b percpu: misc preparations for nommu support
Make the following misc preparations for percpu nommu support.

* Remove refernces to vmalloc in common comments as nommu percpu won't
  use it.

* Rename chunk->vms to chunk->data and make it void *.  Its use is
  determined by chunk management implementation.

* Relocate utility functions and add __maybe_unused to functions which
  might not be used by different chunk management implementations.

This patch doesn't cause any functional change.  This is to allow
alternate chunk management implementation for percpu nommu support.

Changed the BUG_ON() to a WARN_ON(). Note that adding dirty inodes
to the noop_backing_dev_info is not legal and will not result in
them being flushed, but we already catch this condition in
__mark_inode_dirty() when checking for a registered bdi.

23be7468e8 hugetlb: fix infinite loop in get_futex_key() when backed by huge pages
If a futex key happens to be located within a huge page mapped
MAP_PRIVATE, get_futex_key() can go into an infinite loop waiting for a
page->mapping that will never exist.

See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=552257 for more details
about the problem.

This patch makes page->mapping a poisoned value that includes
PAGE_MAPPING_ANON mapped MAP_PRIVATE.  This is enough for futex to
continue but because of PAGE_MAPPING_ANON, the poisoned value is not
dereferenced or used by futex.  No other part of the VM should be
dereferencing the page->mapping of a hugetlbfs page as its page cache is
not on the LRU.

This patch fixes the problem with the test case described in the bugzilla.

e8a03feb54 rmap: add exclusively owned pages to the newest anon_vma
The recent anon_vma fixes cause many anonymous pages to end up
in the parent process anon_vma, even when the page is exclusively
owned by the current process.

Adding exclusively owned anonymous pages to the top anon_vma
reduces rmap scanning overhead, especially in workloads with
forking servers.

This patch adds a parameter to __page_set_anon_rmap that can
be used to indicate whether or not the added page is exclusively
owned by the current process.

Pages added through page_add_new_anon_rmap are exclusively
owned by the current process, and can be added to the top
anon_vma.

Pages added through page_add_anon_rmap can be either shared
or exclusively owned, so we do the conservative thing and
add it to the oldest anon_vma.

A next step would be to add the exclusive parameter to
page_add_anon_rmap, to be used from functions where we do
know for sure whether a page is exclusively owned.
