When the huge page is added to the page cahce (huge_add_to_page_cache),
the page private flag will be cleared. since this code
(remove_inode_hugepages) will only be called for pages in the page
cahce, PagePrivate(page) will always be false.The patch remove the code without any functional change.

CURRENT_TIME macro is not appropriate for filesystems as it
doesn't use the right granularity for filesystem timestamps.
Use current_time() instead.CURRENT_TIME is also not y2038 safe.
This is also in preparation for the patch that transitions
vfs timestamps to use 64 bit time and hence make them
y2038 safe. As part of the effort current_time() will be
extended to do range checks. Hence, it is necessary for all
file system timestamps to use current_time(). Also,
current_time() will be transitioned along with vfs to be
y2038 safe.Note that whenever a single call to current_time() is used
to change timestamps in different inodes, it is because they
share the same time granularity.Signed-off-by: Deepa Dinamani

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.The changes are pretty straight-forward:
- << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> ;
- >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> ;
- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};
- page_cache_get() -> get_page();
- page_cache_release() -> put_page();
This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.virtual patch

Page faults can race with fallocate hole punch. If a page fault happens
between the unmap and remove operations, the page is not removed and
remains within the hole. This is not the desired behavior. The race is
difficult to detect in user level code as even in the non-race case, a
page within the hole could be faulted back in before fallocate returns.
If userfaultfd is expanded to support hugetlbfs in the future, this race
will be easier to observe.If this race is detected and a page is mapped, the remove operation
(remove_inode_hugepages) will unmap the page before removing. The unmap
within remove_inode_hugepages occurs with the hugetlb_fault_mutex held
so that no other faults will be processed until the page is removed.The (unmodified) routine hugetlb_vmdelete_list was moved ahead of
remove_inode_hugepages to satisfy the new reference.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: move hugetlb_vmdelete_list()]

Hillf Danton noticed bugs in the hugetlb_vmtruncate_list routine. The
argument end is of type pgoff_t. It was being converted to a vaddr
offset and passed to unmap_hugepage_range. However, end was also being
used as an argument to the vma_interval_tree_foreach controlling loop.
In addition, the conversion of end to vaddr offset was incorrect.hugetlb_vmtruncate_list is called as part of a file truncate or
fallocate hole punch operation.When truncating a hugetlbfs file, this bug could prevent some pages from
being unmapped. This is possible if there are multiple vmas mapping the
file, and there is a sufficiently sized hole between the mappings. The
size of the hole between two vmas (A,B) must be such that the starting
virtual address of B is greater than (ending virtual address of A <<
PAGE_SHIFT). In this case, the pages in B would not be unmapped. If
pages are not properly unmapped during truncate, the following BUG is
hit:kernel BUG at fs/hugetlbfs/inode.c:428!
In the fallocate hole punch case, this bug could prevent pages from
being unmapped as in the truncate case. However, for hole punch the
result is that unmapped pages will not be removed during the operation.
For hole punch, it is also possible that more pages than desired will be
unmapped. This unnecessary unmapping will cause page faults to
reestablish the mappings on subsequent page access.Fixes: 1bfad99ab (" hugetlbfs: hugetlb_vmtruncate_list() needs to take a range")Reported-by: Hillf Danton

Dmitry Vyukov has reported[1] possible deadlock (triggered by his
syzkaller fuzzer):Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(&hugetlbfs_i_mmap_rwsem_key);
lock(&mapping->i_mmap_rwsem);
lock(&hugetlbfs_i_mmap_rwsem_key);
lock(&mapping->i_mmap_rwsem);Both traces points to mm_take_all_locks() as a source of the problem.
It doesn't take care about ordering or hugetlbfs_i_mmap_rwsem_key (aka
mapping->i_mmap_rwsem for hugetlb mapping) vs. i_mmap_rwsem.huge_pmd_share() does memory allocation under hugetlbfs_i_mmap_rwsem_key
and allocator can take i_mmap_rwsem if it hit reclaim. So we need to
take i_mmap_rwsem from all hugetlb VMAs before taking i_mmap_rwsem from
rest of VMAs.The patch also documents locking order for hugetlbfs_i_mmap_rwsem_key.

The Kconfig currently controlling compilation of this code is:
config HUGETLBFS
bool "HugeTLB file system support"...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.
Lets remove the modular code that is essentially orphaned, so that when
reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only.Since module_init translates to device_initcall in the non-modular case,
the init ordering gets moved to earlier levels when we use the more
appropriate initcalls here.Originally I had the fs part and the mm part as separate commits, just
by happenstance of the nature of how I detected these non-modular use
cases. But that can possibly introduce regressions if the patch merge
ordering puts the fs part 1st -- as the 0-day testing reported a splat
at mount time.Investigating with "initcall_debug" showed that the delta was
init_hugetlbfs_fs being called _before_ hugetlb_init instead of after. So
both the fs change and the mm change are here together.In addition, it worked before due to luck of link order, since they were
both in the same initcall category. So we now have the fs part using
fs_initcall, and the mm part using subsys_initcall, which puts it one
bucket earlier. It now passes the basic sanity test that failed in
earlier 0-day testing.We delete the MODULE_LICENSE tag and capture that information at the top
of the file alongside author comments, etc.We don't replace module.h with init.h since the file already has that.
Also note that MODULE_ALIAS is a no-op for non-modular code.Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

When running the SPECint_rate gcc on some very large boxes it was
noticed that the system was spending lots of time in
mpol_shared_policy_lookup(). The gamess benchmark can also show it and
is what I mostly used to chase down the issue since the setup for that I
found to be easier.To be clear the binaries were on tmpfs because of disk I/O requirements.
We then used text replication to avoid icache misses and having all the
copies banging on the memory where the instruction code resides. This
results in us hitting a bottleneck in mpol_shared_policy_lookup() since
lookup is serialised by the shared_policy lock.I have only reproduced this on very large (3k+ cores) boxes. The
problem starts showing up at just a few hundred ranks getting worse
until it threatens to livelock once it gets large enough. For example
on the gamess benchmark at 128 ranks this area consumes only ~1% of
time, at 512 ranks it consumes nearly 13%, and at 2k ranks it is over
90%.To alleviate the contention in this area I converted the spinlock to an
rwlock. This allows a large number of lookups to happen simultaneously.
The results were quite good reducing this consumtion at max ranks to
around 2%.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: tidy up code comments]

Mark those kmem allocations that are known to be easily triggered from
userspace as __GFP_ACCOUNT/SLAB_ACCOUNT, which makes them accounted to
memcg. For the list, see below:- threadinfo
- task_struct
- task_delay_info
- pid
- cred
- mm_struct
- vm_area_struct and vm_region (nommu)
- anon_vma and anon_vma_chain
- signal_struct
- sighand_struct
- fs_struct
- files_struct
- fdtable and fdtable->full_fds_bits
- dentry and external_name
- inode for all filesystems. This is the most tedious part, because
most filesystems overwrite the alloc_inode method.The list is far from complete, so feel free to add more objects.
Nevertheless, it should be close to "account everything" approach and
keep most workloads within bounds. Malevolent users will be able to
breach the limit, but this was possible even with the former "account
everything" approach (simply because it did not account everything in
fact).[akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes]

Hugh Dickins pointed out problems with the new hugetlbfs fallocate hole
punch code. These problems are in the routine remove_inode_hugepages and
mostly occur in the case where there are holes in the range of pages to be
removed. These holes could be the result of a previous hole punch or
simply sparse allocation. The current code could access pages outside the
specified range.remove_inode_hugepages handles both hole punch and truncate operations.
Page index handling was fixed/cleaned up so that the loop index always
matches the page being processed. The code now only makes a single pass
through the range of pages as it was determined page faults could not race
with truncate. A cond_resched() was added after removing up to
PAGEVEC_SIZE pages.Some totally unnecessary code in hugetlbfs_fallocate() that remained from
early development was also removed.Tested with fallocate tests submitted here:

This is based on the shmem version, but it has diverged quite a bit. We
have no swap to worry about, nor the new file sealing. Add
synchronication via the fault mutex table to coordinate page faults,
fallocate allocation and fallocate hole punch.What this allows us to do is move physical memory in and out of a
hugetlbfs file without having it mapped. This also gives us the ability
to support MADV_REMOVE since it is currently implemented using
fallocate(). MADV_REMOVE lets madvise() remove pages from the middle of
a hugetlbfs file, which wasn't possible before.hugetlbfs fallocate only operates on whole huge pages.
Based on code by Dave Hansen.

Modify truncate_hugepages() to take a range of pages (start, end)
instead of simply start. If an end value of LLONG_MAX is passed, the
current "truncate" functionality is maintained. Existing callers are
modified to pass LLONG_MAX as end of range. By keying off end ==
LLONG_MAX, the routine behaves differently for truncate and hole punch.
Page removal is now synchronized with page allocation via faults by
using the fault mutex table. The hole punch case can experience the
rare region_del error and must handle accordingly.Add the routine hugetlb_fix_reserve_counts to fix up reserve counts in
the case where region_del returns an error.Since the routine handles more than just the truncate case, it is
renamed to remove_inode_hugepages(). To be consistent, the routine
truncate_huge_page() is renamed remove_huge_page().Downstream of remove_inode_hugepages(), the routine
hugetlb_unreserve_pages() is also modified to take a range of pages.
hugetlb_unreserve_pages is modified to detect an error from region_del and
pass it back to the caller.Signed-off-by: Mike Kravetz

fallocate hole punch will want to unmap a specific range of pages.
Modify the existing hugetlb_vmtruncate_list() routine to take a
start/end range. If end is 0, this indicates all pages after start
should be unmapped. This is the same as the existing truncate
functionality. Modify existing callers to add 0 as end of range.Since the routine will be used in hole punch as well as truncate

The shm implementation internally uses shmem or hugetlbfs inodes for shm
segments. As these inodes are never directly exposed to userspace and
only accessed through the shm operations which are already hooked by
security modules, mark the inodes with the S_PRIVATE flag so that inode
security initialization and permission checking is skipped.This was motivated by the following lockdep warning:

This patch replaces cancel_dirty_page() with a helper function
account_page_cleaned() which only updates counters. It's called from
truncate_complete_page() and from try_to_free_buffers() (hack for ext3).
Page is locked in both cases, page-lock protects against concurrent
dirtiers: see commit 2d6d7f982846 ("mm: protect set_page_dirty() from
ongoing truncation").Delete_from_page_cache() shouldn't be called for dirty pages, they must
be handled by caller (either written or truncated). This patch treats
final dirty accounting fixup at the end of __delete_from_page_cache() as
a debug check and adds WARN_ON_ONCE() around it. If something removes
dirty pages without proper handling that might be a bug and unwritten
data might be lost.Hugetlbfs has no dirty pages accounting, ClearPageDirty() is enough
here.cancel_dirty_page() in nfs_wb_page_cancel() is redundant. This is
helper for nfs_invalidate_page() and it's called only in case complete
invalidation.The mess was started in v2.6.20 after commits 46d2277c796f ("Clean up
and make try_to_free_buffers() not race with dirty pages") and
3e67c0987d75 ("truncate: clear page dirtiness before running
try_to_free_buffers()") first was reverted right in v2.6.20 in commit
ecdfc9787fe5 ("Resurrect 'try_to_free_buffers()' VM hackery"), second in
v2.6.25 commit a2b345642f53 ("Fix dirty page accounting leak with ext3
data=journal").Custom fixes were introduced between these points. NFS in v2.6.23, commit
1b3b4a1a2deb ("NFS: Fix a write request leak in nfs_invalidate_page()").
Kludge in __delete_from_page_cache() in v2.6.24, commit 3a6927906f1b ("Do
dirty page accounting when removing a page from the page cache"). Since
v2.6.25 all of them are redundant.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes]

The i_mmap_mutex is a close cousin of the anon vma lock, both protecting
similar data, one for file backed pages and the other for anon memory. To
this end, this lock can also be a rwsem. In addition, there are some
important opportunities to share the lock when there are no tree
modifications.This conversion is straightforward. For now, all users take the write
lock.[sfr@canb.auug.org.au: update fremap.c]

Currently, I am seeing the following when I `mount -t hugetlbfs /none
/dev/hugetlbfs`, and then simply do a `ls /dev/hugetlbfs`. I think it's
related to the fact that hugetlbfs is properly not correctly setting
itself up in this state?:Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000031
Faulting instruction address: 0xc000000000245710
Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
SMP NR_CPUS=2048 NUMA pSeries
....In KVM guests on Power, in a guest not backed by hugepages, we see the
following:AnonHugePages: 0 kB
HugePages_Total: 0
HugePages_Free: 0
HugePages_Rsvd: 0
HugePages_Surp: 0
Hugepagesize: 64 kBHPAGE_SHIFT == 0 in this configuration, which indicates that hugepages
are not supported at boot-time, but this is only checked in
hugetlb_init(). Extract the check to a helper function, and use it in a
few relevant places.This does make hugetlbfs not supported (not registered at all) in this
environment. I believe this is fine, as there are no valid hugepages
and that won't change at runtime.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: use pr_info(), per Mel]

Currently, to track reserved and allocated regions, we use two different
ways, depending on the mapping. For MAP_SHARED, we use
address_mapping's private_list and, while for MAP_PRIVATE, we use a
resv_map.Now, we are preparing to change a coarse grained lock which protect a
region structure to fine grained lock, and this difference hinder it.
So, before changing it, unify region structure handling, consistently
using a resv_map regardless of the kind of mapping.Signed-off-by: Joonsoo Kim

dynamic_dname() is both too much and too little for those - the
output may be well in excess of 64 bytes dynamic_dname() assumes
to be enough (thanks to ashmem feeding really long names to
shmem_file_setup()) and vsnprintf() is an overkill for those
guys.Signed-off-by: Al Viro
