Most-used page->mapping helper -- page_mapping() -- has already uninlined.
Let's uninline also page_rmapping() and page_anon_vma(). It saves us

kstrdup() is often used to duplicate strings where neither source neither
destination will be ever modified. In such case we can just reuse the
source instead of duplicating it. The problem is that we must be sure
that the source is non-modifiable and its life-time is long enough.I suspect the good candidates for such strings are strings located in
kernel .rodata section, they cannot be modifed because the section is
read-only and their life-time is equal to kernel life-time.This small patchset proposes alternative version of kstrdup -
kstrdup_const, which returns source string if it is located in .rodata
otherwise it fallbacks to kstrdup. To verify if the source is in
.rodata function checks if the address is between sentinels
__start_rodata, __end_rodata. I guess it should work with all
architectures.The main patch is accompanied by four patches constifying kstrdup for
cases where situtation described above happens frequently.I have tested the patchset on mobile platform (exynos4210-trats) and it
saves 3272 string allocations. Since minimal allocation is 32 or 64
bytes depending on Kconfig options the patchset saves respectively about
100KB or 200KB of memory.Stats from tested platform show that the main offender is sysfs:
By caller:
2260 __kernfs_new_node
631 clk_register+0xc8/0x1b8
318 clk_register+0x34/0x1b8
51 kmem_cache_create
12 alloc_vfsmntBy string (with count >= 5):
883 power
876 subsystem
135 parameters
132 device
61 iommu_group
...This patch (of 5):
Add an alternative version of kstrdup which returns pointer to constant
char array. The function checks if input string is in persistent and
read-only memory section, if yes it returns the input string, otherwise it
fallbacks to kstrdup.kstrdup_const is accompanied by kfree_const performing conditional memory
deallocation of the string.Signed-off-by: Andrzej Hajda

- Rename vm_is_stack() to task_of_stack() and change it to return
"struct task_struct *" rather than the global (and thus wrong in
general) pid_t.- Add the new pid_of_stack() helper which calls task_of_stack() and
uses the right namespace to report the correct pid_t.Unfortunately we need to define this helper twice, in task_mmu.c
and in task_nommu.c. perhaps it makes sense to add fs/proc/util.c
and move at least pid_of_stack/task_of_stack there to avoid the
code duplication.- Change show_map_vma() and show_numa_map() to use the new helper.

Some applications that run on HPC clusters are designed around the
availability of RAM and the overcommit ratio is fine tuned to get the
maximum usage of memory without swapping. With growing memory, the
1%-of-all-RAM grain provided by overcommit_ratio has become too coarse
for these workload (on a 2TB machine it represents no less than 20GB).This patch adds the new overcommit_kbytes sysctl variable that allow a
much finer grain.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes]

Commit 8456a648cf44 changes the page structure so that the slab
subsystem reuses the page->mapping field.The crash happens in the following way:
* XFS allocates some memory from slab and issues a bio to read data
into it.
* the bio is sent to the loopback device.
* lo_receive creates an actor and calls splice_direct_to_actor.
* lo_splice_actor copies data to the target page.
* lo_splice_actor calls flush_dcache_page because the page may be
mapped by userspace. In that case we need to flush the kernel cache.
* flush_dcache_page asks for the list of userspace mappings, however
that page->mapping field is reused by the slab subsystem for a
different purpose. This causes the crash.Note that other architectures without coherent caches (sparc, arm, mips)
also call page_mapping from flush_dcache_page, so they may crash in the
same way.This patch fixes this bug by testing if the page is a slab page in
page_mapping and returning NULL if it is.The patch also fixes VM_BUG_ON(PageSlab(page)) that could happen in
earlier kernels in the same scenario on architectures without cache
coherence when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled - so it should be backported
to stable kernels.In the old kernels, the function page_mapping is placed in
include/linux/mm.h, so you should modify the patch accordingly when
backporting it.Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka

When I use several fast SSD to do swap, swapper_space.tree_lock is
heavily contended. This makes each swap partition have one
address_space to reduce the lock contention. There is an array of
address_space for swap. The swap entry type is the index to the array.In my test with 3 SSD, this increases the swapout throughput 20%.

When creating new mappings using the MAP_POPULATE / MAP_LOCKED flags (or
with MCL_FUTURE in effect), we want to populate the pages within the
newly created vmas. This may take a while as we may have to read pages
from disk, so ideally we want to do this outside of the write-locked
mmap_sem region.This change introduces mm_populate(), which is used to defer populating
such mappings until after the mmap_sem write lock has been released.
This is implemented as a generalization of the former do_mlock_pages(),
which accomplished the same task but was using during mlock() /
mlockall().Signed-off-by: Michel Lespinasse

Without this patch we can get (many) kmem trace events
with call site at krealloc().This happens because krealloc is calling __krealloc,
which performs the allocation through kmalloc_track_caller.Since neither krealloc nor __krealloc are marked inline explicitly,
the caller can be traced as being krealloc, which clearly is not
the intended behavior.This patch allows to get the real caller of krealloc, by creating
an always inlined function __do_krealloc, thus tracing the
call site accurately.Acked-by: Christoph Lameter

Stack for a new thread is mapped by userspace code and passed via
sys_clone. This memory is currently seen as anonymous in
/proc//maps, which makes it difficult to ascertain which mappings
are being used for thread stacks. This patch uses the individual task
stack pointers to determine which vmas are actually thread stacks.For a multithreaded program like the following:
#include
void *thread_main(void *foo)
{
while(1);
}int main()
{
pthread_t t;
pthread_create(&t, NULL, thread_main, NULL);
pthread_join(t, NULL);

content.With this patch in place, /proc/PID/task/TID/maps are treated as 'maps
as the task would see it' and hence, only the vma that that task uses as
stack is marked as [stack]. All other 'stack' vmas are marked as
anonymous memory. /proc/PID/maps acts as a thread group level view,
where all thread stack vmas are marked as [stack:TID] where TID is the
process ID of the task that uses that vma as stack, while the process
stack is marked as [stack].So /proc/PID/maps will look like this:

When I was reading nommu code, I found that it handles the vma list/tree
in an unusual way. IIUC, because there can be more than one
identical/overrapped vmas in the list/tree, it sorts the tree more
strictly and does a linear search on the tree. But it doesn't applied to
the list (i.e. the list could be constructed in a different order than
the tree so that we can't use the list when finding the first vma in that
order).Since inserting/sorting a vma in the tree and link is done at the same
time, we can easily construct both of them in the same order. And linear
searching on the tree could be more costly than doing it on the list, it
can be converted to use the list.Also, after the commit 297c5eee3724 ("mm: make the vma list be doubly
linked") made the list be doubly linked, there were a couple of code need
to be fixed to construct the list properly.Patch 1/6 is a preparation. It maintains the list sorted same as the tree
and construct doubly-linked list properly. Patch 2/6 is a simple
optimization for the vma deletion. Patch 3/6 and 4/6 convert tree
traversal to list traversal and the rest are simple fixes and cleanups.This patch:
@vma added into @mm should be sorted by start addr, end addr and VMA
struct addr in that order because we may get identical VMAs in the @mm.
However this was true only for the rbtree, not for the list.This patch fixes this by remembering 'rb_prev' during the tree traversal
like find_vma_prepare() does and linking the @vma via __vma_link_list().
After this patch, we can iterate the whole VMAs in correct order simply by
using @mm->mmap list.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: avoid duplicating __vma_link_list()]

Move sys_mmap_pgoff() from mm/util.c to mm/mmap.c and mm/nommu.c,
where we'd expect to find such code: especially now that it contains
the MAP_HUGETLB handling. Revert mm/util.c to how it was in 2.6.32.This patch just ignores MAP_HUGETLB in the nommu case, as in 2.6.32,
whereas 2.6.33-rc2 reported -ENOSYS. Perhaps validate_mmap_request()
should reject it with -EINVAL? Add that later if necessary.Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins
