If prepare_write fails with AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE, or if commit_write fails, then
we may have failed the write operation despite prepare_write having
instantiated blocks past i_size. Fix this, and consolidate the trimming into
one place.

tmpfs was misconverted to __GFP_ZERO in 2.6.11. There's an unusual case in
which shmem_getpage receives the page from its caller instead of allocating.
We must cover this case by clear_highpage before SetPageUptodate, as before.

Unlike mmap(), the codepath for brk() creates a vma without first checking
that it doesn't touch a region exclusively reserved for hugepages. On
powerpc, this can allow it to create a normal page vma in a hugepage
region, causing oopses and other badness.
Add a test to prevent this. With this patch, brk() will simply fail if it
attempts to move the break into a hugepage reserved region.

When expanding the stack, we don't currently check if the VMA will cross
into an area of the address space that is reserved for hugetlb pages.
Subsequent faults on the expanded portion of such a VMA will confuse the
low-level MMU code, resulting in an OOPS. Check for this.

sys_madvise has down_write of mmap_sem, then madvise_remove calls
vmtruncate_range which takes i_mutex and i_alloc_sem: no, we can
easily devise deadlocks from that ordering.
madvise_remove drop mmap_sem while calling vmtruncate_range: luckily,
since madvise_remove doesn't split or merge vmas, it's easy to handle
this case with a NULL prev, without restructuring sys_madvise. (Though
sad to retake mmap_sem when it's unlikely to be needed, and certainly
down_read is sufficient for MADV_REMOVE, unlike the other madvices.)

shmem_truncate_range has its own truncate_inode_pages_range, to free any
pages racily instantiated while it was in progress: a SHMEM_PAGEIN flag
is set when this might have happened. But holepunching gets no chance
to clear that flag at the start of vmtruncate_range, so it's always set
(unless a truncate came just before), so holepunch almost always does
this second truncate_inode_pages_range.
shmem holepunch has unlikely swap<->file races hereabouts whatever we do
(without a fuller rework than is fit for this release): I was going to
skip the second truncate in the punch_hole case, but Miklos points out
that would make holepunch correctness more vulnerable to swapoff. So
keep the second truncate, but follow it by an unmap_mapping_range to
eliminate the disconnected pages (freed from pagecache while still
mapped in userspace) that it might have left behind.

Miklos Szeredi observes that during truncation of shmem page directories,
info->lock is released to improve latency (after lowering i_size and
next_index to exclude races); but this is quite wrong for holepunching,
which receives no such protection from i_size or next_index, and is left
vulnerable to races with shmem_unuse, shmem_getpage and shmem_writepage.
Hold info->lock throughout when holepunching? No, any user could prevent
rescheduling for far too long. Instead take info->lock just when needed:
in shmem_free_swp when removing the swap entries, and whenever removing
a directory page from the level above. But so long as we remove before
scanning, we can safely skip taking the lock at the lower levels, except
at misaligned start and end of the hole.

Miklos Szeredi observes BUG_ON(!entry) in shmem_writepage() triggered
in rare circumstances, because shmem_truncate_range() erroneously
removes partially truncated directory pages at the end of the range:
later reclaim on pages pointing to these removed directories triggers
the BUG. Indeed, and it can also cause data loss beyond the hole.
Fix this as in the patch proposed by Miklos, but distinguish between
"limit" (how far we need to search: ignore truncation's next_index
optimization in the holepunch case - if there are races it's more
consistent to act on the whole range specified) and "upper_limit"
(how far we can free directory pages: generally we must be careful
to keep partially punched pages, but can relax at end of file -
i_size being held stable by i_mutex).

Ramiro Voicu hits the BUG_ON(!pte_none(*pte)) in zeromap_pte_range: kernel
bugzilla 7645. Right: read_zero_pagealigned uses down_read of mmap_sem,
but another thread's racing read of /dev/zero, or a normal fault, can
easily set that pte again, in between zap_page_range and zeromap_page_range
getting there. It's been wrong ever since 2.4.3.
The simple fix is to use down_write instead, but that would serialize reads
of /dev/zero more than at present: perhaps some app would be badly
affected. So instead let zeromap_page_range return the error instead of
BUG_ON, and read_zero_pagealigned break to the slower clear_user loop in
that case - there's no need to optimize for it.
Use -EEXIST for when a pte is found: BUG_ON in mmap_zero (the other user of
zeromap_page_range), though it really isn't interesting there. And since
mmap_zero wants -EAGAIN for out-of-memory, the zeromaps better return that
than -ENOMEM.

Doug Chapman noticed that mincore() will doa "copy_to_user()" of the
result while holding the mmap semaphore for reading, which is a big
no-no. While a recursive read-lock on a semaphore in the case of a page
fault happens to work, we don't actually allow them due to deadlock
schenarios with writers due to fairness issues.
Doug and Marcel sent in a patch to fix it, but I decided to just rewrite
the mess instead - not just fixing the locking problem, but making the
code smaller and (imho) much easier to understand.

2.6.16 needs this. It was merged into 2.6.18-rc1.
pdflush is carefully designed to ensure that all wakeups have some
corresponding work to do - if a woken-up pdflush thread discovers that
it hasn't been given any work to do then this is considered an error.
That all broke when swsusp came along - because a timer-delivered
wakeup to a frozen pdflush thread will just get lost. This causes the
pdflush thread to get lost as well: the writeback timer is supposed to
be re-armed by pdflush in process context, but pdflush doesn't execute
the callout which does this.

that is not the case.

I noticed a strange behavior in a tmpfs file system the other day, while
building packages - occasionally, and seemingly at random, make decided to
rebuild a target. However, only on tmpfs.
A file would be created, and if checked, it had a sub-second timestamp.
However, after an utimes related call where sub-seconds should be set, they
were zeroed instead. In the case that a file was created, and utimes(...,NULL)
was used on it in the same second, the timestamp on the file moved backwards.
After some digging, I found that this was being caused by tmpfs not having a
time granularity set, thus inheriting the default 1 second granularity.
Hugh adds: yes, we missed tmpfs when the s_time_gran mods went into 2.6.11.
Unfortunately, the granularity of CURRENT_TIME, often used in filesystems,
does not match the default granularity set by alloc_super. A few more such
discrepancies have been found, but this is the most important to fix now.

Fix an infrequently encountered 'sleeping function called
from invalid context' in the cpuset hooks in __alloc_pages.
Could sleep while interrupts disabled.
The routine cpuset_zone_allowed() is called by code in
mm/page_alloc.c __alloc_pages() to determine if a zone is
allowed in the current tasks cpuset. This routine can sleep,
for certain GFP_KERNEL allocations, if the zone is on a memory
node not allowed in the current cpuset, but might be allowed
in a parent cpuset.
But we can't sleep in __alloc_pages() if in interrupt, nor
if called for a GFP_ATOMIC request (__GFP_WAIT not set in
gfp_flags).
The rule was intended to be:
Don't call cpuset_zone_allowed() if you can't sleep, unless you
pass in the __GFP_HARDWALL flag set in gfp_flag, which disables
the code that might scan up ancestor cpusets and sleep.
This rule was being violated due to a bogus change made (by myself,
pj) to __alloc_pages() as part of the November 2005 effort to
cleanup its logic.
The bogus change can be seen at:
http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Kernel/2005-11/4691.html
[PATCH 01/05] mm fix __alloc_pages cpuset ALLOC_* flags
This was first noticed on a tight memory system, in code that
was disabling interrupts and doing allocation requests with
__GFP_WAIT not set, which resulted in __might_sleep() writing
complaints to the log "Debug: sleeping function called ...",
when the code in cpuset_zone_allowed() tried to take the
callback_sem cpuset semaphore.
Special thanks to Dave Chinner, for figuring this out,
and a tip of the hat to Nick Piggin who warned me of this
back in Nov 2005, before I was ready to listen.

Currently we check PageDirty() in order to make the decision to swap out
the page. However, the dirty information may be only be contained in the
ptes pointing to the page. We need to first unmap the ptes before checking
for PageDirty(). If unmap is successful then the page count of the page
will also be decreased so that pageout() works properly.
This is a fix necessary for 2.6.17. Without this fix we may migrate dirty
pages for filesystems without migration functions. Filesystems may keep
pointers to dirty pages. Migration of dirty pages can result in the
filesystem keeping pointers to freed pages.
Unmapping is currently not be separated out from removing all the
references to a page and moving the mapping. Therefore try_to_unmap will
be called again in migrate_page() if the writeout is successful. However,
it wont do anything since the ptes are already removed.
The coming updates to the page migration code will restructure the code
so that this is no longer necessary.

Basic problem: pages of a shared memory segment can only be migrated once.
In 2.6.16 through 2.6.17-rc1, shared memory mappings do not have a
migratepage address space op. Therefore, migrate_pages() falls back to
default processing. In this path, it will try to pageout() dirty pages.
Once a shared memory page has been migrated it becomes dirty, so
migrate_pages() will try to page it out. However, because the page count
is 3 [cache + current + pte], pageout() will return PAGE_KEEP because
is_page_cache_freeable() returns false. This will abort all subsequent
migrations.
This patch adds a migratepage address space op to shared memory segments to
avoid taking the default path. We use the "migrate_page()" function
because it knows how to migrate dirty pages. This allows shared memory
segment pages to migrate, subject to other conditions such as # pte's
referencing the page [page_mapcount(page)], when requested.
I think this is safe. If we're migrating a shared memory page, then we
found the page via a page table, so it must be in memory.

Each of the conjuncts may be true at different times due to unrelated

Lee Revell reported 28ms latency when process with lots of swapped memory
exits.
2.6.15 introduced a latency regression when unmapping: in accounting the
zap_work latency breaker, pte_none counted 1, pte_present PAGE_SIZE, but a
swap entry counted nothing at all. We think of pages present as the slow
case, but Lee's trace shows that free_swap_and_cache's radix tree lookup
can make a lot of work - and we could have been doing it many thousands of
times without a latency break.
Move the zap_work update up to account swap entries like pages present.
This does account non-linear pte_file entries, and unmap_mapping_range
skipping over swap entries, by the same amount even though they're quick:
but neither of those cases deserves complicating the code (and they're
treated no worse than they were in 2.6.14).

The cache reaper currently tries to free all alien caches and all remote
per cpu pages in each pass of cache_reap. For a machines with large number
of nodes (such as Altix) this may lead to sporadic delays of around ~10ms.
Interrupts are disabled while reclaiming creating unacceptable delays.
This patch changes that behavior by adding a per cpu reap_node variable.
Instead of attempting to free all caches, we free only one alien cache and
the per cpu pages from one remote node. That reduces the time spend in
cache_reap. However, doing so will lengthen the time it takes to
completely drain all remote per cpu pagesets and all alien caches. The
time needed will grow with the number of nodes in the system. All caches
are drained when they overflow their respective capacity. So the drawback
here is only that a bit of memory may be wasted for awhile longer.
Details:
1. Rename drain_remote_pages to drain_node_pages to allow the specification
of the node to drain of pcp pages.
2. Add additional functions init_reap_node, next_reap_node for NUMA
that manage a per cpu reap_node counter.
3. Add a reap_alien function that reaps only from the current reap_node.
For us this seems to be a critical issue. Holdoffs of an average of ~7ms
cause some HPC benchmarks to slow down significantly. F.e. NAS parallel
slows down dramatically. NAS parallel has a 12-16 seconds runtime w/o rotor
compared to 5.8 secs with the rotor patches. It gets down to 5.05 secs with
the additional interrupt holdoff reductions.

Change the format of numa_maps to be more compact and contain additional
information that is useful for managing and troubleshooting memory on a
NUMA system. Numa_maps can now also support huge pages.
Fixes:
1. More compact format. Only display fields if they contain additional
information.
2. Always display information for all vmas. The old numa_maps did not display
vma with no mapped entries. This was a bit confusing because page
migration removes ptes for file backed vmas. After page migration
a part of the vmas vanished.
3. Rename maxref to maxmap. This is the maximum mapcount of all the pages
in a vma and may be used as an indicator as to how many processes
may be using a certain vma.
4. Include the ability to scan over huge page vmas.
New items shown:
dirty
Number of pages in a vma that have either the dirty bit set in the
page_struct or in the pte.
file=<filename>
The file backing the pages if any
stack
Stack area
heap
Heap area
huge
Huge page area. The number of pages shows is the number of huge
pages not the regular sized pages.
swapcache
Number of pages with swap references. Must be >0 in order to
be shown.
active
Number of active pages. Only displayed if different from the number
of pages mapped.
writeback
Number of pages under writeback. Only displayed if >0.

If we triggered the 'offslab_limit' test, we would return with
cachep->gfporder incremented once too many times.
This clarifies the logic somewhat, and fixes that bug.

We want to use the "struct slab" size, not the size of the pointer to
same. As it is, we'd not print out the last <n> entry pointers in the
slab (where <n> is ~10, depending on whether it's a 32-bit or 64-bit
kernel).
Gaah, that slab code was written by somebody who likes unreadable crud.

numa_maps should not scan over huge vmas in order not to cause problems for
non IA64 platforms that may have pte entries pointing to huge pages in a
variety of ways in their page tables. Add a simple check to ignore vmas
containing huge pages.

I seem to have lost this read_unlock().
While we're there, let's turn that interruptible sleep unto uninterruptible,
so we don't get a busywait if signal_pending(). (Again. We seem to have a
habit of doing this).

remove_from_swap() currently attempts to use page_lock_anon_vma to obtain
an anon_vma lock. That is not working since the page may have been
remapped via swap ptes in order to move the page.
However, do_migrate_pages() obtain the mmap_sem lock and therefore there is
a guarantee that the anonymous vma will not vanish from under us. There is
therefore no need to use page_lock_anon_vma.

Currently sys_migrate_pages only moves pages belonging to a process. This
is okay when invoked from a regular user. But if invoked from root it
should move all pages as documented in the migrate_pages manpage.

- PF_SWAPWRITE needs to be set for RECLAIM_SWAP to be able to write
out pages to swap. Currently RECLAIM_SWAP may not do that.
- remove setting nr_reclaimed pages after slab reclaim since the slab shrinking
code does not use that and the nr_reclaimed pages is just right for the
intended follow up action.

migrate_pages_to() allocates a list of new pages on the intended target
node or with the intended policy and then uses the list of new pages as
targets for the migration of a list of pages out of place.
When the pages are allocated it is not clear which of the out of place
pages will be moved to the new pages. So we cannot specify an address as
needed by alloc_page_vma(). This causes problem for MPOL_INTERLEAVE which
will currently allocate the pages on the first node of the set. If mbind
is used with vma that has the policy of MPOL_INTERLEAVE then the
interleaving of pages may be destroyed.
This patch fixes that by generating a fake address for each alloc_page_vma
which will result is a distribution of pages as prescribed by
MPOL_INTERLEAVE.
Lee also noted that the sequence of nodes for the new pages seems to be
inverted. So we also invert the way the lists of pages for migration are
build.
