* FS-Cache: Add use/unuse/wake cookie wrappersDavid Howells2013-09-271-2/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add wrapper functions for dealing with cookie->n_active: (*) __fscache_use_cookie() to increment it. (*) __fscache_unuse_cookie() to decrement and test against zero. (*) __fscache_wake_unused_cookie() to wake up anyone waiting for it to reach zero. The second and third are split so that the third can be done after cookie->lock has been released in case the waiter wakes up whilst we're still holding it and tries to get it. We will need to wake-on-zero once the cookie disablement patch is applied because it will then be possible to see n_active become zero without the cookie being relinquished. Also move the cookie usement out of fscache_attr_changed_op() and into fscache_attr_changed() and the operation struct so that cookie disablement will be able to track it. Whilst we're at it, only increment n_active if we're about to do fscache_submit_op() so that we don't have to deal with undoing it if anything earlier fails. Possibly this should be moved into fscache_submit_op() which could look at FSCACHE_OP_UNUSE_COOKIE. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Integrate SCTP better into the ipv6 output path so that these problems are fixed and such issues don't get missed in the future either. From Daniel Borkmann. 4) Fix skge regressions added by the DMA mapping error return checking added in v3.10, from Mikulas Patocka. 5) Kill some more IRQF_DISABLED references, from Michael Opdenacker. 6) Fix races and deadlocks in the bridging code, from Hong Zhiguo. 7) Fix error handling in tun_set_iff(), in particular don't leak resources. From Jason Wang. 8) Prevent format-string injection into xen-netback driver, from Kees Cook. 9) Fix regression added to netpoll ARP packet handling, in particular check for the right ETH_P_ARP protocol code. From Sonic Zhang. 10) Try to deal with AMD IOMMU errors when using r8169 chips, from Francois Romieu. 11) Cure freezes due to recent changes in the rt2x00 wireless driver, from Stanislaw Gruszka. 12) Don't do SPI transfers (which can sleep) in interrupt context in cw1200 driver, from Solomon Peachy. 13) Fix LEDs handling bug in 5720 tg3 chips already handled for 5719. From Nithin Sujir. 14) Make xen_netbk_count_skb_slots() count the actual number of slots that will be used, taking into consideration packing and other issues that the transmit path will run into. From David Vrabel. 15) Use the correct maximum age when calculating the bridge message_age_timer, from Chris Healy. 16) Get rid of memory leaks in mcs7780 IRDA driver, from Alexey Khoroshilov. 17) Netfilter conntrack extensions were converted to RCU but are not always freed properly using kfree_rcu(). Fix from Michal Kubecek. 18) VF reset recovery not being done correctly in qlcnic driver, from Manish Chopra. 19) Fix inverted test in ATM nicstar driver, from Andy Shevchenko. 20) Missing workqueue destroy in cxgb4 error handling, from Wei Yang. 21) Internal switch not initialized properly in bgmac driver, from Rafał Miłecki. 22) Netlink messages report wrong local and remote addresses in IPv6 tunneling, from Ding Zhi. 23) ICMP redirects should not generate socket errors in DCCP and SCTP. We're still working out how this should be handled for RAW and UDP sockets. From Daniel Borkmann and Duan Jiong. 24) We've had several bugs wherein the network namespace's loopback device gets accessed after it is free'd, NULL it out so that we can catch these problems more readily. From Eric W Biederman. 25) Fix regression in TCP RTO calculations, from Neal Cardwell. 26) Fix too early free of xen-netback network device when VIFs still exist. From Paul Durrant. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (87 commits) netconsole: fix a deadlock with rtnl and netconsole's mutex netpoll: fix NULL pointer dereference in netpoll_cleanup skge: fix broken driver ip: generate unique IP identificator if local fragmentation is allowed ip: use ip_hdr() in __ip_make_skb() to retrieve IP header xen-netback: Don't destroy the netdev until the vif is shut down net:dccp: do not report ICMP redirects to user space cnic: Fix crash in cnic_bnx2x_service_kcq() bnx2x, cnic, bnx2i, bnx2fc: Fix bnx2i and bnx2fc regressions. vxlan: Avoid creating fdb entry with NULL destination tcp: fix RTO calculated from cached RTT drivers: net: phy: cicada.c: clears warning Use #include <linux/io.h> instead of <asm/io.h> net loopback: Set loopback_dev to NULL when freed batman-adv: set the TAG flag for the vid passed to BLA netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: use network skb for sequence adjustment net: sctp: rfc4443: do not report ICMP redirects to user space net: usb: cdc_ether: use usb.h macros whenever possible net: usb: cdc_ether: fix checkpatch errors and warnings net: usb: cdc_ether: Use wwan interface for Telit modules ip6_tunnels: raddr and laddr are inverted in nl msg ...

Before the patch the results were ... # ipset t test 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.1 is in set test. # ipset t test 192.168.0.1 nomatch 192.168.0.1 is in set test.

If the queue is flushed after the event is unregistered, the caller can be sure no more watch callbacks will occur for the canceled watch.

This requires some function naming changes in slob. As a results of this patch there is a common set of functions for all allocators. Also means that kmalloc_large() is now available in general to perform large order allocations that go directly via the page allocator. kmalloc_large() can be substituted if kmalloc() throws warnings because of too large allocations. kmalloc_large() has exactly the same semantics as kmalloc but can only used for allocations > PAGE_SIZE.

But this isn't what the implementation was actually doing; the only driver implementing cancellation, the usb gadget code, never returned an io_event in its cancel function. And aio_complete() was recently changed to no longer suppress event delivery if the kiocb had been cancelled. This gets rid of the unused io_event argument to kiocb_cancel() and kiocb->ki_cancel(), and changes io_cancel() to return -EINPROGRESS if kiocb->ki_cancel() returned success. Also tweak the refcounting in kiocb_cancel() to make more sense.

With percpu allocation (that works), it's impossible to guarantee it will always be possible to allocate all nr_tags - typically, some will be stuck on a remote percpu freelist where the current job can't get to them. We do guarantee that it will always be possible to allocate at least (nr_tags / 2) tags - this is done by keeping track of which and how many cpus have tags on their percpu freelists. On allocation failure if enough cpus have tags that there could potentially be (nr_tags / 2) tags stuck on remote percpu freelists, we then pick a remote cpu at random to steal from. Note that there's no cpu hotplug notifier - we don't care, because steal_tags() will eventually get the down cpu's tags. We _could_ satisfy more allocations if we had a notifier - but we'll still meet our guarantees and it's absolutely not a correctness issue, so I don't think it's worth the extra code.

After Kame's commit 89c06bd52fb9 ("memcg: use new logic for page stat accounting"), we can use 'struct page' flag to test page state instead of per page_cgroup flag. But memcg has a feature to move a page from a cgroup to another one and may have race between "move" and "page stat accounting". So in order to avoid the race we have designed a new lock: mem_cgroup_begin_update_page_stat() modify page information -->(a) mem_cgroup_update_page_stat() -->(b) mem_cgroup_end_update_page_stat() It requires both (a) and (b)(writeback pages accounting) to be pretected in mem_cgroup_{begin/end}_update_page_stat(). It's full no-op for !CONFIG_MEMCG, almost no-op if memcg is disabled (but compiled in), rcu read lock in the most cases (no task is moving), and spin_lock_irqsave on top in the slow path. There're two writeback interfaces to modify: test_{clear/set}_page_writeback(). And the lock order is: --> memcg->move_lock --> mapping->tree_lock Signed-off-by: Sha Zhengju <handai.szj@taobao.com> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Reviewed-by: Greg Thelen <gthelen@google.com> Cc: Fengguang Wu <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

When a task fails to charge memory, it invokes the OOM killer and loops right there in the charge code until it succeeds. Comparably, any other task that enters the charge path at this point will go to a waitqueue right then and there and sleep until the OOM situation is resolved. The problem is that these tasks may hold filesystem locks and the mmap_sem; locks that the selected OOM victim may need to exit. For example, in one reported case, the task invoking the OOM killer was about to charge a page cache page during a write(), which holds the i_mutex. The OOM killer selected a task that was just entering truncate() and trying to acquire the i_mutex: OOM invoking task: mem_cgroup_handle_oom+0x241/0x3b0 mem_cgroup_cache_charge+0xbe/0xe0 add_to_page_cache_locked+0x4c/0x140 add_to_page_cache_lru+0x22/0x50 grab_cache_page_write_begin+0x8b/0xe0 ext3_write_begin+0x88/0x270 generic_file_buffered_write+0x116/0x290 __generic_file_aio_write+0x27c/0x480 generic_file_aio_write+0x76/0xf0 # takes ->i_mutex do_sync_write+0xea/0x130 vfs_write+0xf3/0x1f0 sys_write+0x51/0x90 system_call_fastpath+0x18/0x1d OOM kill victim: do_truncate+0x58/0xa0 # takes i_mutex do_last+0x250/0xa30 path_openat+0xd7/0x440 do_filp_open+0x49/0xa0 do_sys_open+0x106/0x240 sys_open+0x20/0x30 system_call_fastpath+0x18/0x1d The OOM handling task will retry the charge indefinitely while the OOM killed task is not releasing any resources. A similar scenario can happen when the kernel OOM killer for a memcg is disabled and a userspace task is in charge of resolving OOM situations. In this case, ALL tasks that enter the OOM path will be made to sleep on the OOM waitqueue and wait for userspace to free resources or increase the group's limit. But a userspace OOM handler is prone to deadlock itself on the locks held by the waiting tasks. For example one of the sleeping tasks may be stuck in a brk() call with the mmap_sem held for writing but the userspace handler, in order to pick an optimal victim, may need to read files from /proc/<pid>, which tries to acquire the same mmap_sem for reading and deadlocks. This patch changes the way tasks behave after detecting a memcg OOM and makes sure nobody loops or sleeps with locks held: 1. When OOMing in a user fault, invoke the OOM killer and restart the fault instead of looping on the charge attempt. This way, the OOM victim can not get stuck on locks the looping task may hold. 2. When OOMing in a user fault but somebody else is handling it (either the kernel OOM killer or a userspace handler), don't go to sleep in the charge context. Instead, remember the OOMing memcg in the task struct and then fully unwind the page fault stack with -ENOMEM. pagefault_out_of_memory() will then call back into the memcg code to check if the -ENOMEM came from the memcg, and then either put the task to sleep on the memcg's OOM waitqueue or just restart the fault. The OOM victim can no longer get stuck on any lock a sleeping task may hold. Debugged by Michal Hocko.

This, however, doesn't scale well with hierarchies with many groups where only few groups are interesting. This patch adds mem_cgroup_iter_cond variant of the iterator with a callback which gets called for every visited node. There are three possible ways how the callback can influence the walk. Either the node is visited, it is skipped but the tree walk continues down the tree or the whole subtree of the current group is skipped.

Since "memcg: integrate soft reclaim tighter with zone shrinking code" there is no reason for this limitation anymore as the soft limit reclaim doesn't use any special code paths and it is a part of the zone shrinking code which is used by both global and targeted reclaims. From the semantic point of view it is natural to consider soft limit before touching all groups in the hierarchy tree which is touching the hard limit because soft limit tells us where to push back when there is a memory pressure. It is not important whether the pressure comes from the limit or imbalanced zones. This patch simply enables soft reclaim unconditionally in mem_cgroup_should_soft_reclaim so it is enabled for both global and targeted reclaim paths. mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim_eligible needs to learn about the root of the reclaim to know where to stop checking soft limit state of parents up the hierarchy. Say we have A (over soft limit) \ B (below s.l., hit the hard limit) / \ C D (below s.l.) B is the source of the outside memory pressure now for D but we shouldn't soft reclaim it because it is behaving well under B subtree and we can still reclaim from C (pressumably it is over the limit). mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim_eligible should therefore stop climbing up the hierarchy at B (root of the memory pressure).

quite some time without any objections. I would be really happy if it made it into 3.12. I do not want to push it too hard but I think this work is basically ready and waiting more doesn't help. The basic idea is quite simple. Pull soft reclaim into shrink_zone in the first step and get rid of the previous soft reclaim infrastructure. shrink_zone is done in two passes now. First it tries to do the soft limit reclaim and it falls back to reclaim-all mode if no group is over the limit or no pages have been scanned. The second pass happens at the same priority so the only time we waste is the memcg tree walk which has been updated in the third step to have only negligible overhead. As a bonus we will get rid of a _lot_ of code by this and soft reclaim will not stand out like before when it wasn't integrated into the zone shrinking code and it reclaimed at priority 0 (the testing results show that some workloads suffers from such an aggressive reclaim). The clean up is in a separate patch because I felt it would be easier to review that way. The second step is soft limit reclaim integration into targeted reclaim. It should be rather straight forward. Soft limit has been used only for the global reclaim so far but it makes sense for any kind of pressure coming from up-the-hierarchy, including targeted reclaim. The third step (patches 4-8) addresses the tree walk overhead by enhancing memcg iterators to enable skipping whole subtrees and tracking number of over soft limit children at each level of the hierarchy. This information is updated same way the old soft limit tree was updated (from memcg_check_events) so we shouldn't see an additional overhead. In fact mem_cgroup_update_soft_limit is much simpler than tree manipulation done previously. __shrink_zone uses mem_cgroup_soft_reclaim_eligible as a predicate for mem_cgroup_iter so the decision whether a particular group should be visited is done at the iterator level which allows us to decide to skip the whole subtree as well (if there is no child in excess). This reduces the tree walk overhead considerably. * TEST 1 ======== My primary test case was a parallel kernel build with 2 groups (make is running with -j8 with a distribution .config in a separate cgroup without any hard limit) on a 32 CPU machine booted with 1GB memory and both builds run taskset to Node 0 cpus. I was mostly interested in 2 setups. Default - no soft limit set and - and 0 soft limit set to both groups. The first one should tell us whether the rework regresses the default behavior while the second one should show us improvements in an extreme case where both workloads are always over the soft limit. /usr/bin/time -v has been used to collect the statistics and each configuration had 3 runs after fresh boot without any other load on the system. base is mmotm-2013-07-18-16-40 rework all 8 patches applied on top of base * No-limit User no-limit/base: min: 651.92 max: 672.65 avg: 664.33 std: 8.01 runs: 6 no-limit/rework: min: 657.34 [100.8%] max: 668.39 [99.4%] avg: 663.13 [99.8%] std: 3.61 runs: 6 System no-limit/base: min: 69.33 max: 71.39 avg: 70.32 std: 0.79 runs: 6 no-limit/rework: min: 69.12 [99.7%] max: 71.05 [99.5%] avg: 70.04 [99.6%] std: 0.59 runs: 6 Elapsed no-limit/base: min: 398.27 max: 422.36 avg: 408.85 std: 7.74 runs: 6 no-limit/rework: min: 386.36 [97.0%] max: 438.40 [103.8%] avg: 416.34 [101.8%] std: 18.85 runs: 6 The results are within noise.

Page fault statistics tell us at least part of the story: Minor 0-limit/base: min: 37180461.00 max: 37319986.00 avg: 37247470.00 std: 54772.71 runs: 6 0-limit/rework: min: 36751685.00 [98.8%] max: 36805379.00 [98.6%] avg: 36774506.33 [98.7%] std: 17109.03 runs: 6 Major 0-limit/base: min: 170604.00 max: 221141.00 avg: 196081.83 std: 18217.01 runs: 6 0-limit/rework: min: 2864.00 [1.7%] max: 10029.00 [4.5%] avg: 5627.33 [2.9%] std: 2252.71 runs: 6 Same as with my previous testing Minor faults are more or less within noise but Major fault count is way bellow the base kernel. While this looks as a nice win it is fair to say that 0-limit configuration is quite artificial. So I was playing with 0-no-limit loads as well. * TEST 2 ======== The following results are from 2 groups configuration on a 16GB machine (single NUMA node). - A running stream IO (dd if=/dev/zero of=local.file bs=1024) with 2*TotalMem with 0 soft limit. - B running a mem_eater which consumes TotalMem-1G without any limit. The mem_eater consumes the memory in 100 chunks with 1s nap after each mmap+poppulate so that both loads have chance to fight for the memory. The expected result is that B shouldn't be reclaimed and A shouldn't see a big dropdown in elapsed time. User base: min: 2.68 max: 2.89 avg: 2.76 std: 0.09 runs: 3 rework: min: 3.27 [122.0%] max: 3.74 [129.4%] avg: 3.44 [124.6%] std: 0.21 runs: 3 System base: min: 86.26 max: 88.29 avg: 87.28 std: 0.83 runs: 3 rework: min: 81.05 [94.0%] max: 84.96 [96.2%] avg: 83.14 [95.3%] std: 1.61 runs: 3 Elapsed base: min: 317.28 max: 332.39 avg: 325.84 std: 6.33 runs: 3 rework: min: 281.53 [88.7%] max: 298.16 [89.7%] avg: 290.99 [89.3%] std: 6.98 runs: 3 System time improved slightly as well as Elapsed. My previous testing has shown worse numbers but this again seem to depend on the storage speed. My theory is that the writeback doesn't catch up and prio-0 soft reclaim falls into wait on writeback page too often in the base kernel. The patched kernel doesn't do that because the soft reclaim is done from the kswapd/direct reclaim context. This can be seen on the following graph nicely. The A's group usage_in_bytes regurarly drops really low very often. All 3 runs http://labs.suse.cz/mhocko/soft_limit_rework/stream_io-vs-mem_eater/stream.png resp. a detail of the single run http://labs.suse.cz/mhocko/soft_limit_rework/stream_io-vs-mem_eater/stream-one-run.png mem_eater seems to be doing better as well. It gets to the full allocation size faster as can be seen on the following graph: http://labs.suse.cz/mhocko/soft_limit_rework/stream_io-vs-mem_eater/mem_eater-one-run.png /proc/meminfo collected during the test also shows that rework kernel hasn't swapped that much (well almost not at all): base: max: 123900 K avg: 56388.29 K rework: max: 300 K avg: 128.68 K kswapd and direct reclaim statistics are of no use unfortunatelly because soft reclaim is not accounted properly as the counters are hidden by global_reclaim() checks in the base kernel. * TEST 3 ======== Another test was the same configuration as TEST2 except the stream IO was replaced by a single kbuild (16 parallel jobs bound to Node0 cpus same as in TEST1) and mem_eater allocated TotalMem-200M so kbuild had only 200MB left. Kbuild did better with the rework kernel here as well: User base: min: 860.28 max: 872.86 avg: 868.03 std: 5.54 runs: 3 rework: min: 880.81 [102.4%] max: 887.45 [101.7%] avg: 883.56 [101.8%] std: 2.83 runs: 3 System base: min: 84.35 max: 85.06 avg: 84.79 std: 0.31 runs: 3 rework: min: 85.62 [101.5%] max: 86.09 [101.2%] avg: 85.79 [101.2%] std: 0.21 runs: 3 Elapsed base: min: 135.36 max: 243.30 avg: 182.47 std: 45.12 runs: 3 rework: min: 110.46 [81.6%] max: 116.20 [47.8%] avg: 114.15 [62.6%] std: 2.61 runs: 3 Minor base: min: 36635476.00 max: 36673365.00 avg: 36654812.00 std: 15478.03 runs: 3 rework: min: 36639301.00 [100.0%] max: 36695541.00 [100.1%] avg: 36665511.00 [100.0%] std: 23118.23 runs: 3 Major base: min: 14708.00 max: 53328.00 avg: 31379.00 std: 16202.24 runs: 3 rework: min: 302.00 [2.1%] max: 414.00 [0.8%] avg: 366.33 [1.2%] std: 47.22 runs: 3 Again we can see a significant improvement in Elapsed (it also seems to be more stable), there is a huge dropdown for the Major page faults and much more swapping: base: max: 583736 K avg: 112547.43 K rework: max: 4012 K avg: 124.36 K Graphs from all three runs show the variability of the kbuild quite nicely. It even seems that it took longer after every run with the base kernel which would be quite surprising as the source tree for the build is removed and caches are dropped after each run so the build operates on a freshly extracted sources everytime. http://labs.suse.cz/mhocko/soft_limit_rework/stream_io-vs-mem_eater/kbuild-mem_eater.png My other testing shows that this is just a matter of timing and other runs behave differently the std for Elapsed time is similar ~50. Example of other three runs: http://labs.suse.cz/mhocko/soft_limit_rework/stream_io-vs-mem_eater/kbuild-mem_eater2.png So to wrap this up. The series is still doing good and improves the soft limit. The testing results for bunch of cgroups with both stream IO and kbuild loads can be found in "memcg: track children in soft limit excess to improve soft limit". This patch: Memcg soft reclaim has been traditionally triggered from the global reclaim paths before calling shrink_zone. mem_cgroup_soft_limit_reclaim then picked up a group which exceeds the soft limit the most and reclaimed it with 0 priority to reclaim at least SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pages. The infrastructure requires per-node-zone trees which hold over-limit groups and keep them up-to-date (via memcg_check_events) which is not cost free. Although this overhead hasn't turned out to be a bottle neck the implementation is suboptimal because mem_cgroup_update_tree has no idea which zones consumed memory over the limit so we could easily end up having a group on a node-zone tree having only few pages from that node-zone. This patch doesn't try to fix node-zone trees management because it seems that integrating soft reclaim into zone shrinking sounds much easier and more appropriate for several reasons. First of all 0 priority reclaim was a crude hack which might lead to big stalls if the group's LRUs are big and hard to reclaim (e.g. a lot of dirty/writeback pages). Soft reclaim should be applicable also to the targeted reclaim which is awkward right now without additional hacks. Last but not least the whole infrastructure eats quite some code. After this patch shrink_zone is done in 2 passes. First it tries to do the soft reclaim if appropriate (only for global reclaim for now to keep compatible with the original state) and fall back to ignoring soft limit if no group is eligible to soft reclaim or nothing has been scanned during the first pass. Only groups which are over their soft limit or any of their parents up the hierarchy is over the limit are considered eligible during the first pass. Soft limit tree which is not necessary anymore will be removed in the follow up patch to make this patch smaller and easier to review.
