2011-10-31fs/pipe.c: add ->statfs callback for pipefsPavel Emelyanov
Currently a statfs on a pipe's /proc/<pid>/fd/ link returns -ENOSYS. Wire pipfs up so that the statfs succeeds. This is required by checkpoint-restart in the userspace to make it possible to distinguish pipes from fifos. When we dump information about task's open files we use the /proc/pid/fd directoy's symlinks and the fact that opening any of them gives us exactly the same dentry->inode pair as the original process has. Now if a task we're dumping has opened pipe and fifo we need to detect this and act accordingly. Knowing that an fd with type S_ISFIFO resides on a pipefs is the most precise way.

2011-10-31mm: munlock use mapcount to avoid terrible overheadHugh Dickins
A process spent 30 minutes exiting, just munlocking the pages of a large anonymous area that had been alternately mprotected into page-sized vmas: for every single page there's an anon_vma walk through all the other little vmas to find the right one. A general fix to that would be a lot more complicated (use prio_tree on anon_vma?), but there's one very simple thing we can do to speed up the common case: if a page to be munlocked is mapped only once, then it is our vma that it is mapped into, and there's no need whatever to walk through all the others. Okay, there is a very remote race in munlock_vma_pages_range(), if between its follow_page() and lock_page(), another process were to munlock the same page, then page reclaim remove it from our vma, then another process mlock it again. We would find it with page_mapcount 1, yet it's still mlocked in another process. But never mind, that's much less likely than the down_read_trylock() failure which munlocking already tolerates (in try_to_unmap_one()): in due course page reclaim will discover and move the page to unevictable instead.

2011-10-31mm/huge_memory: fix typo when updating mmu cacheHillf Danton
There are three cases of update_mmu_cache() in the file, and the case in function collapse_huge_page() has a typo, namely the last parameter used, which is corrected based on the other two cases. Due to the define of update_mmu_cache by X86, the only arch that implements THP currently, the change here has no really crystal point, but one or two minutes of efforts could be saved for those archs that are likely to support THP in future.

2011-10-31vmscan: limit direct reclaim for higher order allocationsRik van Riel
When suffering from memory fragmentation due to unfreeable pages, THP page faults will repeatedly try to compact memory. Due to the unfreeable pages, compaction fails. Needless to say, at that point page reclaim also fails to create free contiguous 2MB areas. However, that doesn't stop the current code from trying, over and over again, and freeing a minimum of 4MB (2UL << sc->order pages) at every single invocation. This resulted in my 12GB system having 2-3GB free memory, a corresponding amount of used swap and very sluggish response times. This can be avoided by having the direct reclaim code not reclaim from zones that already have plenty of free memory available for compaction. If compaction still fails due to unmovable memory, doing additional reclaim will only hurt the system, not help.

2011-10-31vmscan: add barrier to prevent evictable page in unevictable listMinchan Kim
When a race between putback_lru_page() and shmem_lock with lock=0 happens, progrom execution order is as follows, but clear_bit in processor #1 could be reordered right before spin_unlock of processor #1. Then, the page would be stranded on the unevictable list. spin_lock SetPageLRU spin_unlock clear_bit(AS_UNEVICTABLE) spin_lock if PageLRU() if !test_bit(AS_UNEVICTABLE) move evictable list smp_mb if !test_bit(AS_UNEVICTABLE) move evictable list spin_unlock But, pagevec_lookup() in scan_mapping_unevictable_pages() has rcu_read_[un]lock() so it could protect reordering before reaching test_bit(AS_UNEVICTABLE) on processor #1 so this problem never happens. But it's a unexpected side effect and we should solve this problem properly. This patch adds a barrier after mapping_clear_unevictable. I didn't meet this problem but just found during review.

2011-10-31mm: disable user interface to manually rescue unevictable pagesJohannes Weiner
At one point, anonymous pages were supposed to go on the unevictable list when no swap space was configured, and the idea was to manually rescue those pages after adding swap and making them evictable again. But nowadays, swap-backed pages on the anon LRU list are not scanned without available swap space anyway, so there is no point in moving them to a separate list anymore. The manual rescue could also be used in case pages were stranded on the unevictable list due to race conditions. But the code has been around for a while now and newly discovered bugs should be properly reported and dealt with instead of relying on such a manual fixup. In addition to the lack of a usecase, the sysfs interface to rescue pages from a specific NUMA node has been broken since its introduction, so it's unlikely that anybody ever relied on that. This patch removes the functionality behind the sysctl and the node-interface and emits a one-time warning when somebody tries to access either of them.

2011-10-31vmscan.c: fix invalid strict_strtoul() check in write_scan_unevictable_node()Kautuk Consul
write_scan_unevictable_node() checks the value req returned by strict_strtoul() and returns 1 if req is 0. However, when strict_strtoul() returns 0, it means successful conversion of buf to unsigned long. Due to this, the function was not proceeding to scan the zones for unevictable pages even though we write a valid value to the scan_unevictable_pages sys file. Change this check slightly to check for invalid value in buf as well as 0 value stored in res after successful conversion via strict_strtoul. In both cases, we do not perform the scanning of this node's zones.

2011-10-31kswapd: assign new_order and new_classzone_idx after wakeup in sleepingAlex,Shi
There 2 places to read pgdat in kswapd. One is return from a successful balance, another is waked up from kswapd sleeping. The new_order and new_classzone_idx represent the balance input order and classzone_idx. But current new_order and new_classzone_idx are not assigned after kswapd_try_to_sleep(), that will cause a bug in the following scenario. 1: after a successful balance, kswapd goes to sleep, and new_order = 0; new_classzone_idx = __MAX_NR_ZONES - 1; 2: kswapd waked up with order = 3 and classzone_idx = ZONE_NORMAL 3: in the balance_pgdat() running, a new balance wakeup happened with order = 5, and classzone_idx = ZONE_NORMAL 4: the first wakeup(order = 3) finished successufly, return order = 3 but, the new_order is still 0, so, this balancing will be treated as a failed balance. And then the second tighter balancing will be missed. So, to avoid the above problem, the new_order and new_classzone_idx need to be assigned for later successful comparison.

2011-10-31kswapd: avoid unnecessary rebalance after an unsuccessful balancingAlex,Shi
In commit 215ddd66 ("mm: vmscan: only read new_classzone_idx from pgdat when reclaiming successfully") , Mel Gorman said kswapd is better to sleep after a unsuccessful balancing if there is tighter reclaim request pending in the balancing. But in the following scenario, kswapd do something that is not matched our expectation. The patch fixes this issue. 1, Read pgdat request A (classzone_idx, order = 3) 2, balance_pgdat() 3, During pgdat, a new pgdat request B (classzone_idx, order = 5) is placed 4, balance_pgdat() returns but failed since returned order = 0 5, pgdat of request A assigned to balance_pgdat(), and do balancing again. While the expectation behavior of kswapd should try to sleep.

2011-10-31mremap: avoid sending one IPI per pageAndrea Arcangeli
This replaces ptep_clear_flush() with ptep_get_and_clear() and a single flush_tlb_range() at the end of the loop, to avoid sending one IPI for each page. The mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start/end section is enlarged accordingly but this is not going to fundamentally change things. It was more by accident that the region under mremap was for the most part still available for secondary MMUs: the primary MMU was never allowed to reliably access that region for the duration of the mremap (modulo trapping SIGSEGV on the old address range which sounds unpractical and flakey). If users wants secondary MMUs not to lose access to a large region under mremap they should reduce the mremap size accordingly in userland and run multiple calls. Overall this will run faster so it's actually going to reduce the time the region is under mremap for the primary MMU which should provide a net benefit to apps. For KVM this is a noop because the guest physical memory is never mremapped, there's just no point it ever moving it while guest runs. One target of this optimization is JVM GC (so unrelated to the mmu notifier logic).

2011-10-31mm: avoid null pointer access in vm_struct via /proc/vmallocinfoMitsuo Hayasaka
The /proc/vmallocinfo shows information about vmalloc allocations in vmlist that is a linklist of vm_struct. It, however, may access pages field of vm_struct where a page was not allocated. This results in a null pointer access and leads to a kernel panic. Why this happens: In __vmalloc_node_range() called from vmalloc(), newly allocated vm_struct is added to vmlist at __get_vm_area_node() and then, some fields of vm_struct such as nr_pages and pages are set at __vmalloc_area_node(). In other words, it is added to vmlist before it is fully initialized. At the same time, when the /proc/vmallocinfo is read, it accesses the pages field of vm_struct according to the nr_pages field at show_numa_info(). Thus, a null pointer access happens. The patch adds the newly allocated vm_struct to the vmlist *after* it is fully initialized. So, it can avoid accessing the pages field with unallocated page when show_numa_info() is called.
