mm: workingset: move shadow entry tracking to radix tree exceptional tracking · 14b46879

Johannes Weiner authored Dec 12, 2016

Currently, we track the shadow entries in the page cache in the upper
bits of the radix_tree_node->count, behind the back of the radix tree
implementation.  Because the radix tree code has no awareness of them,
we rely on random subtleties throughout the implementation (such as the
node->count != 1 check in the shrinking code, which is meant to exclude
multi-entry nodes but also happens to skip nodes with only one shadow
entry, as that's accounted in the upper bits).  This is error prone and
has, in fact, caused the bug fixed in d3798ae8

 ("mm: filemap: don't
plant shadow entries without radix tree node").

To remove these subtleties, this patch moves shadow entry tracking from
the upper bits of node->count to the existing counter for exceptional
entries.  node->count goes back to being a simple counter of valid
entries in the tree node and can be shrunk to a single byte.

This vastly simplifies the page cache code.  All accounting happens
natively inside the radix tree implementation, and maintaining the LRU
linkage of shadow nodes is consolidated into a single function in the
workingset code that is called for leaf nodes affected by a change in
the page cache tree.

This also removes the last user of the __radix_delete_node() return
value.  Eliminate it.

lib: radix-tree: update callback for changing leaf nodes · 4d693d08

Johannes Weiner authored Dec 12, 2016



Support handing __radix_tree_replace() a callback that gets invoked for
all leaf nodes that change or get freed as a result of the slot
replacement, to assist users tracking nodes with node->private_list.

This prepares for putting page cache shadow entries into the radix tree
root again and drastically simplifying the shadow tracking.

lib: radix-tree: add entry deletion support to __radix_tree_replace() · f4b109c6

Johannes Weiner authored Dec 12, 2016



Page cache shadow entry handling will be a lot simpler when it can use a
single generic replacement function for pages, shadow entries, and
emptying slots.

Make __radix_tree_replace() properly account insertions and deletions in
node->count and garbage collect nodes as they become empty.  Then
re-implement radix_tree_delete() on top of it.

lib: radix-tree: check accounting of existing slot replacement users · 6d75f366

Johannes Weiner authored Dec 12, 2016



The bug in khugepaged fixed earlier in this series shows that radix tree
slot replacement is fragile; and it will become more so when not only
NULL<->!NULL transitions need to be caught but transitions from and to
exceptional entries as well.  We need checks.

Re-implement radix_tree_replace_slot() on top of the sanity-checked
__radix_tree_replace().  This requires existing callers to also pass the
radix tree root, but it'll warn us when somebody replaces slots with
contents that need proper accounting (transitions between NULL entries,
real entries, exceptional entries) and where a replacement through the
slot pointer would corrupt the radix tree node counts.

lib: radix-tree: native accounting of exceptional entries · f7942430

Johannes Weiner authored Dec 12, 2016

The way the page cache is sneaking shadow entries of evicted pages into
the radix tree past the node entry accounting and tracking them manually
in the upper bits of node->count is fraught with problems.

These shadow entries are marked in the tree as exceptional entries,
which are a native concept to the radix tree. Maintain an explicit
counter of exceptional entries in the radix tree node. Subsequent
patches will switch shadow entry tracking over to that counter.

DAX and shmem are the other users of exceptional entries. Since slot
replacements that change the entry type from regular to exceptional must
now be accounted, introduce a __radix_tree_replace() function that does
replacement and accounting, and switch DAX and shmem over.

The increase in radix tree node size is temporary. A followup patch
switches the shadow tracking to this new scheme and we'll no longer need
the upper bits in node->count and shrink that back to one byte.

mm: workingset: turn shadow node shrinker bugs into warnings · b936887e

Johannes Weiner authored Dec 12, 2016



When the shadow page shrinker tries to reclaim a radix tree node but
finds it in an unexpected state - it should contain no pages, and
non-zero shadow entries - there is no need to kill the executing task or
even the entire system.  Warn about the invalid state, then leave that
tree node be.  Simply don't put it back on the shadow LRU for future
reclaim and move on.

mm: khugepaged: fix radix tree node leak in shmem collapse error path · 59749e6c

Johannes Weiner authored Dec 12, 2016

The radix tree counts valid entries in each tree node.  Entries stored
in the tree cannot be removed by simpling storing NULL in the slot or
the internal counters will be off and the node never gets freed again.

When collapsing a shmem page fails, restore the holes that were filled
with radix_tree_insert() with a proper radix tree deletion.

mm: khugepaged: close use-after-free race during shmem collapsing · 91a45f71

Johannes Weiner authored Dec 12, 2016

Patch series "mm: workingset: radix tree subtleties & single-page file
refaults", v3.

This is another revision of the radix tree / workingset patches based on
feedback from Jan and Kirill.

This is a follow-up to d3798ae8 ("mm: filemap: don't plant shadow
entries without radix tree node").  That patch fixed an issue that was
caused mainly by the page cache sneaking special shadow page entries
into the radix tree and relying on subtleties in the radix tree code to
make that work.  The fix also had to stop tracking refaults for
single-page files because shadow pages stored as direct pointers in
radix_tree_root->rnode weren't properly handled during tree extension.

These patches make the radix tree code explicitely support and track
such special entries, to eliminate the subtleties and to restore the
thrash detection for single-page files.

This patch (of 9):

When a radix tree iteration drops the tree lock, another thread might
swoop in and free the node holding the current slot.  The iteration
needs to do another tree lookup from the current index to continue.

mm: don't cap request size based on read-ahead setting · 9491ae4a

Jens Axboe authored Dec 12, 2016

We ran into a funky issue, where someone doing 256K buffered reads saw
128K requests at the device level. Turns out it is read-ahead capping
the request size, since we use 128K as the default setting. This
doesn't make a lot of sense - if someone is issuing 256K reads, they
should see 256K reads, regardless of the read-ahead setting, if the
underlying device can support a 256K read in a single command.

This patch introduces a bdi hint, io_pages. This is the soft max IO
size for the lower level, I've hooked it up to the bdev settings here.
Read-ahead is modified to issue the maximum of the user request size,
and the read-ahead max size, but capped to the max request size on the
device side. The latter is done to avoid reading ahead too much, if the
application asks for a huge read. With this patch, the kernel behaves
like the application expects.

Having code for the pkey_mprotect, pkey_alloc and pkey_free system calls
makes only sense if ARCH_HAS_PKEYS is selected.  If not selected these
system calls will always return -ENOSPC or -EINVAL.

To simplify things and have less code generate the pkey system call code
only if ARCH_HAS_PKEYS is selected.

For architectures which have already wired up the system calls, but do
not select ARCH_HAS_PKEYS this will result in less generated code and a
different return code: the three system calls will now always return
-ENOSYS, using the cond_syscall mechanism.

For architectures which have not wired up the system calls less
unreachable code will be generated.
