a2f2945a99 The oomkiller calculations make decisions based on capabilities. Since
these are not security decisions and LSMs should not record if they fall
the request they should use the new has_capability_noaudit() interface so
the denials will not be recorded.

9b46333406 vmap: cope with vm_unmap_aliases before vmalloc_init()
Xen can end up calling vm_unmap_aliases() before vmalloc_init() has
been called.  In this case its safe to make it a simple no-op.

a70dcb969f memory hotplug: fix page_zone() calculation in test_pages_isolated()
My last bugfix here (adding zone->lock) introduced a new problem: Using
page_zone(pfn_to_page(pfn)) to get the zone after the for() loop is wrong.
 pfn will then be >= end_pfn, which may be in a different zone or not
present at all.  This may lead to an addressing exception in page_zone()
or spin_lock_irqsave().

Now I use __first_valid_page() again after the loop to find a valid page
for page_zone().

0aedadf91a mm: move migrate_prep out from under mmap_sem
Move the migrate_prep outside the mmap_sem for the following system calls

1. sys_move_pages
2. sys_migrate_pages
3. sys_mbind()

It really does not matter when we flush the lru.  The system is free to
add pages onto the lru even during migration which will make the page
migration either skip the page (mbind, migrate_pages) or return a busy
state (move_pages).

Fixes this lockdep warning (and potential deadlock):

Some VM place has
      mmap_sem -> kevent_wq via lru_add_drain_all()

net/core/dev.c::dev_ioctl()  has
     rtnl_lock  ->  mmap_sem        (*) the ioctl has copy_from_user() and it can do page fault.

linkwatch_event has
     kevent_wq -> rtnl_lock

18229df5b6 hugetlb: pull gigantic page initialisation out of the default path
As we can determine exactly when a gigantic page is in use we can optimise
the common regular page cases by pulling out gigantic page initialisation
into its own function.  As gigantic pages are never released to buddy we
do not need a destructor.  This effectivly reverts the previous change to
the main buddy allocator.  It also adds a paranoid check to ensure we
never release gigantic pages from hugetlbfs to the main buddy.

69d177c2fc hugetlbfs: handle pages higher order than MAX_ORDER
When working with hugepages, hugetlbfs assumes that those hugepages are
smaller than MAX_ORDER.  Specifically it assumes that the mem_map is
contigious and uses that to optimise access to the elements of the mem_map
that represent the hugepage.  Gigantic pages (such as 16GB pages on
powerpc) by definition are of greater order than MAX_ORDER (larger than
MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES in size).  This means that we can no longer make use of
the buddy alloctor guarentees for the contiguity of the mem_map, which
ensures that the mem_map is at least contigious for maximmally aligned
areas of MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES pages.

This patch adds new mem_map accessors and iterator helpers which handle
any discontiguity at MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES boundaries.  It then uses these to
implement gigantic page versions of copy_huge_page and clear_huge_page,
and to allow follow_hugetlb_page handle gigantic pages.

ab4f2ee130 [ARM] fix naming of MODULE_START / MODULE_END
As of 73bdf0a60e, the kernel needs
to know where modules are located in the virtual address space.
On ARM, we located this region between MODULE_START and MODULE_END.
Unfortunately, everyone else calls it MODULES_VADDR and MODULES_END.
Update ARM to use the same naming, so is_vmalloc_or_module_addr()
can work properly.  Also update the comment on mm/vmalloc.c to
reflect that ARM also places modules in a separate region from the
vmalloc space.

731572d39f nfsd: fix vm overcommit crash
Junjiro R.  Okajima reported a problem where knfsd crashes if you are
using it to export shmemfs objects and run strict overcommit.  In this
situation the current->mm based modifier to the overcommit goes through a
NULL pointer.

We could simply check for NULL and skip the modifier but we've caught
other real bugs in the past from mm being NULL here - cases where we did
need a valid mm set up (eg the exec bug about a year ago).

To preserve the checks and get the logic we want shuffle the checking
around and add a new helper to the vm_ security wrappers

Also fix a current->mm reference in nommu that should use the passed mm

94b6da5ab8 memcg: fix page_cgroup allocation
page_cgroup_init() is called from mem_cgroup_init(). But at this
point, we cannot call alloc_bootmem().
(and this caused panic at boot.)

This patch moves page_cgroup_init() to init/main.c.

Time table is following:
==
  parse_args(). # we can trust mem_cgroup_subsys.disabled bit after this.
  ....
  cgroup_init_early()  # "early" init of cgroup.
  ....
  setup_arch()         # memmap is allocated.
  ...
  page_cgroup_init();
  mem_init();   # we cannot call alloc_bootmem after this.
  ....
  cgroup_init() # mem_cgroup is initialized.
==

Before page_cgroup_init(), mem_map must be initialized. So,
I added page_cgroup_init() to init/main.c directly.

(*) maybe this is not very clean but
    - cgroup_init_early() is too early
    - in cgroup_init(), we have to use vmalloc instead of alloc_bootmem().
    use of vmalloc area in x86-32 is important and we should avoid very large
    vmalloc() in x86-32. So, we want to use alloc_bootmem() and added page_cgroup_init()
    directly to init/main.c

52d4b9ac0b memcg: allocate all page_cgroup at boot
Allocate all page_cgroup at boot and remove page_cgroup poitner from
struct page.  This patch adds an interface as

 struct page_cgroup *lookup_page_cgroup(struct page*)

All FLATMEM/DISCONTIGMEM/SPARSEMEM  and MEMORY_HOTPLUG is supported.

Remove page_cgroup pointer reduces the amount of memory by
 - 4 bytes per PAGE_SIZE.
 - 8 bytes per PAGE_SIZE
if memory controller is disabled. (even if configured.)

On usual 8GB x86-32 server, this saves 8MB of NORMAL_ZONE memory.
On my x86-64 server with 48GB of memory, this saves 96MB of memory.
I think this reduction makes sense.

By pre-allocation, kmalloc/kfree in charge/uncharge are removed.
This means
  - we're not necessary to be afraid of kmalloc faiulre.
    (this can happen because of gfp_mask type.)
  - we can avoid calling kmalloc/kfree.
  - we can avoid allocating tons of small objects which can be fragmented.
  - we can know what amount of memory will be used for this extra-lru handling.

I added printk message as

	"allocated %ld bytes of page_cgroup"
        "please try cgroup_disable=memory option if you don't want"

maybe enough informative for users.

073e587ec2 memcg: move charge swapin under lock
While page-cache's charge/uncharge is done under page_lock(), swap-cache
isn't.  (anonymous page is charged when it's newly allocated.)

This patch moves do_swap_page()'s charge() call under lock.  I don't see
any bad problem *now* but this fix will be good for future for avoiding
unnecessary racy state.

the pointers to the user-space page address array and to the user-space

e78bbfa826 mm: stop returning -ENOENT from sys_move_pages() if nothing got migrated
A patchset reworking sys_move_pages().  It removes the possibly large
vmalloc by using multiple chunks when migrating large buffers.  It also
dramatically increases the throughput for large buffers since the lookup
in new_page_node() is now limited to a single chunk, causing the quadratic
complexity to have a much slower impact.  There is no need to use any
radix-tree-like structure to improve this lookup.

sys_move_pages() duration on a 4-quadcore-opteron 2347HE (1.9Gz),
migrating between nodes #2 and #3:

	length		move_pages (us)		move_pages+patch (us)
	4kB		126			98
	40kB		198			168
	400kB		963			937
	4MB		12503			11930
	40MB		246867			11848

Patches #1 and #4 are the important ones:
1) stop returning -ENOENT from sys_move_pages() if nothing got migrated
2) don't vmalloc a huge page_to_node array for do_pages_stat()
3) extract do_pages_move() out of sys_move_pages()
4) rework do_pages_move() to work on page_sized chunks
5) move_pages: no need to set pp->page to ZERO_PAGE(0) by default

This patch:

There is no point in returning -ENOENT from sys_move_pages() if all pages
were already on the right node, while we return 0 if only 1 page was not.
Most application don't know where their pages are allocated, so it's not
an error to try to migrate them anyway.

Just return 0 and let the status array in user-space be checked if the
application needs details.

It will make the upcoming chunked-move_pages() support much easier.

de7f0cba96 memory hotplug: release memory regions in PAGES_PER_SECTION chunks
During hotplug memory remove, memory regions should be released on a
PAGES_PER_SECTION size chunks.  This mirrors the code in add_memory where
resources are requested on a PAGES_PER_SECTION size.

Attempting to release the entire memory region fails because there is not
a single resource for the total number of pages being removed.  Instead
the resources for the pages are split in PAGES_PER_SECTION size chunks as
requested during memory add.

4b2e38ad70 hugepage: support ZERO_PAGE()
Presently hugepage doesn't use zero page at all because zero page is only
used for coredumping and hugepage can't core dump.

However we have now implemented hugepage coredumping.  Therefore we should
implement the zero page of hugepage.

Implementation note:

o Why do we only check VM_SHARED for zero page?
  normal page checked as ..

	static inline int use_zero_page(struct vm_area_struct *vma)
	{
	        if (vma->vm_flags & (VM_LOCKED | VM_SHARED))
	                return 0;

	        return !vma->vm_ops || !vma->vm_ops->fault;
	}

First, hugepages are never mlock()ed.  We aren't concerned with VM_LOCKED.

Second, hugetlbfs is a pseudo filesystem, not a real filesystem and it
doesn't have any file backing.  Thus ops->fault checking is meaningless.

o Why don't we use zero page if !pte.

!pte indicate {pud, pmd} doesn't exist or some error happened.  So we
shouldn't return zero page if any error occurred.

db64fe0225 mm: rewrite vmap layer
Rewrite the vmap allocator to use rbtrees and lazy tlb flushing, and
provide a fast, scalable percpu frontend for small vmaps (requires a
slightly different API, though).

The biggest problem with vmap is actually vunmap.  Presently this requires
a global kernel TLB flush, which on most architectures is a broadcast IPI
to all CPUs to flush the cache.  This is all done under a global lock.  As
the number of CPUs increases, so will the number of vunmaps a scaled
workload will want to perform, and so will the cost of a global TLB flush.
 This gives terrible quadratic scalability characteristics.

Another problem is that the entire vmap subsystem works under a single
lock.  It is a rwlock, but it is actually taken for write in all the fast
paths, and the read locking would likely never be run concurrently anyway,
so it's just pointless.

This is a rewrite of vmap subsystem to solve those problems.  The existing
vmalloc API is implemented on top of the rewritten subsystem.

The TLB flushing problem is solved by using lazy TLB unmapping.  vmap
addresses do not have to be flushed immediately when they are vunmapped,
because the kernel will not reuse them again (would be a use-after-free)
until they are reallocated.  So the addresses aren't allocated again until
a subsequent TLB flush.  A single TLB flush then can flush multiple
vunmaps from each CPU.

XEN and PAT and such do not like deferred TLB flushing because they can't
always handle multiple aliasing virtual addresses to a physical address.
They now call vm_unmap_aliases() in order to flush any deferred mappings.
That call is very expensive (well, actually not a lot more expensive than
a single vunmap under the old scheme), however it should be OK if not
called too often.

The virtual memory extent information is stored in an rbtree rather than a
linked list to improve the algorithmic scalability.

There is a per-CPU allocator for small vmaps, which amortizes or avoids
global locking.

To use the per-CPU interface, the vm_map_ram / vm_unmap_ram interfaces
must be used in place of vmap and vunmap.  Vmalloc does not use these
interfaces at the moment, so it will not be quite so scalable (although it
will use lazy TLB flushing).

As a quick test of performance, I ran a test that loops in the kernel,
linearly mapping then touching then unmapping 4 pages.  Different numbers
of tests were run in parallel on an 4 core, 2 socket opteron.  Results are
in nanoseconds per map+touch+unmap.

threads           vanilla         vmap rewrite
1                 14700           2900
2                 33600           3000
4                 49500           2800
8                 70631           2900

So with a 8 cores, the rewritten version is already 25x faster.

In a slightly more realistic test (although with an older and less
scalable version of the patch), I ripped the not-very-good vunmap batching
code out of XFS, and implemented the large buffer mapping with vm_map_ram
and vm_unmap_ram...  along with a couple of other tricks, I was able to
speed up a large directory workload by 20x on a 64 CPU system.  I believe
vmap/vunmap is actually sped up a lot more than 20x on such a system, but
I'm running into other locks now.  vmap is pretty well blown off the
profiles.

__vma_link_file and expand_downwards functions are not small, yeat they
are marked inline.  They probably had one callsite sometime in the past,
but now they have more.  In order to prevent similar thing, I also
deinlined expand_upwards, despite it having only pne callsite.  Nowadays
gcc auto-inlines such static functions anyway.  In find_extend_vma, I
removed one extra level of indirection.

Patch is deliberately generated with -U $BIGNUM to make
it easier to see that functions are big.

pagecache when it has no other references can use non-atomic page flags
operations because no other CPU may be operating on it at this time.

This saves one atomic operation when inserting a page into pagecache.

9978ad583e mlock: make mlock error return Posixly Correct
Rework Posix error return for mlock().

Posix requires error code for mlock*() system calls for some conditions
that differ from what kernel low level functions, such as
get_user_pages(), return for those conditions.  For more info, see:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121750892930775&w=2

This patch provides the same translation of get_user_pages()
error codes to posix specified error codes in the context
of the mlock rework for unevictable lru.

e0f79b8f1f vmscan: don't accumulate scan pressure on unrelated lists
During each reclaim scan we accumulate scan pressure on unrelated lists
which will result in bogus scans and unwanted reclaims eventually.

Scanning lists with few reclaim candidates results in a lot of rotation
and therefor also disturbs the list balancing, putting even more
pressure on the wrong lists.

In a test-case with much streaming IO, and therefor a crowded inactive
file page list, swapping started because

  a) anon pages were reclaimed after swap_cluster_max reclaim
  invocations -- nr_scan of this list has just accumulated

  b) active file pages were scanned because *their* nr_scan has also
  accumulated through the same logic.  And this in return created a
  lot of rotation for file pages and resulted in a decrease of file
  list priority, again increasing the pressure on anon pages.

The result was an evicted working set of anon pages while there were
tons of inactive file pages that should have been taken instead.

64d6519dda swap: cull unevictable pages in fault path
In the fault paths that install new anonymous pages, check whether the
page is evictable or not using lru_cache_add_active_or_unevictable().  If
the page is evictable, just add it to the active lru list [via the pagevec
cache], else add it to the unevictable list.

This "proactive" culling in the fault path mimics the handling of mlocked
pages in Nick Piggin's series to keep mlocked pages off the lru lists.

Notes:

1) This patch is optional--e.g., if one is concerned about the
   additional test in the fault path.  We can defer the moving of
   nonreclaimable pages until when vmscan [shrink_*_list()]
   encounters them.  Vmscan will only need to handle such pages
   once, but if there are a lot of them it could impact system
   performance.

2) The 'vma' argument to page_evictable() is require to notice that
   we're faulting a page into an mlock()ed vma w/o having to scan the
   page's rmap in the fault path.   Culling mlock()ed anon pages is
   currently the only reason for this patch.

3) We can't cull swap pages in read_swap_cache_async() because the
   vma argument doesn't necessarily correspond to the swap cache
   offset passed in by swapin_readahead().  This could [did!] result
   in mlocking pages in non-VM_LOCKED vmas if [when] we tried to
   cull in this path.

4) Move set_pte_at() to after where we add page to lru to keep it
   hidden from other tasks that might walk the page table.
   We already do it in this order in do_anonymous() page.  And,
   these are COW'd anon pages.  Is this safe?

8edb08caf6 mlock: downgrade mmap sem while populating mlocked regions
We need to hold the mmap_sem for write to initiatate mlock()/munlock()
because we may need to merge/split vmas.  However, this can lead to very
long lock hold times attempting to fault in a large memory region to mlock
it into memory.  This can hold off other faults against the mm
[multithreaded tasks] and other scans of the mm, such as via /proc.  To
alleviate this, downgrade the mmap_sem to read mode during the population
of the region for locking.  This is especially the case if we need to
reclaim memory to lock down the region.  We [probably?] don't need to do
this for unlocking as all of the pages should be resident--they're already
mlocked.

Now, the caller's of the mlock functions [mlock_fixup() and
mlock_vma_pages_range()] expect the mmap_sem to be returned in write mode.
 Changing all callers appears to be way too much effort at this point.
So, restore write mode before returning.  Note that this opens a window
where the mmap list could change in a multithreaded process.  So, at least
for mlock_fixup(), where we could be called in a loop over multiple vmas,
we check that a vma still exists at the start address and that vma still
covers the page range [start,end).  If not, we return an error, -EAGAIN,
and let the caller deal with it.

Return -EAGAIN from mlock_vma_pages_range() function and mlock_fixup() if
the vma at 'start' disappears or changes so that the page range
[start,end) is no longer contained in the vma.  Again, let the caller deal
with it.  Looks like only sys_remap_file_pages() [via mmap_region()]
should actually care.

With this patch, I no longer see processes like ps(1) blocked for seconds
or minutes at a time waiting for a large [multiple gigabyte] region to be
locked down.  However, I occassionally see delays while unlocking or
unmapping a large mlocked region.  Should we also downgrade the mmap_sem
for the unlock path?

b291f00039 mlock: mlocked pages are unevictable
Make sure that mlocked pages also live on the unevictable LRU, so kswapd
will not scan them over and over again.

This is achieved through various strategies:

1) add yet another page flag--PG_mlocked--to indicate that
   the page is locked for efficient testing in vmscan and,
   optionally, fault path.  This allows early culling of
   unevictable pages, preventing them from getting to
   page_referenced()/try_to_unmap().  Also allows separate
   accounting of mlock'd pages, as Nick's original patch
   did.

   Note:  Nick's original mlock patch used a PG_mlocked
   flag.  I had removed this in favor of the PG_unevictable
   flag + an mlock_count [new page struct member].  I
   restored the PG_mlocked flag to eliminate the new
   count field.

2) add the mlock/unevictable infrastructure to mm/mlock.c,
   with internal APIs in mm/internal.h.  This is a rework
   of Nick's original patch to these files, taking into
   account that mlocked pages are now kept on unevictable
   LRU list.

3) update vmscan.c:page_evictable() to check PageMlocked()
   and, if vma passed in, the vm_flags.  Note that the vma
   will only be passed in for new pages in the fault path;
   and then only if the "cull unevictable pages in fault
   path" patch is included.

4) add try_to_unlock() to rmap.c to walk a page's rmap and
   ClearPageMlocked() if no other vmas have it mlocked.
   Reuses as much of try_to_unmap() as possible.  This
   effectively replaces the use of one of the lru list links
   as an mlock count.  If this mechanism let's pages in mlocked
   vmas leak through w/o PG_mlocked set [I don't know that it
   does], we should catch them later in try_to_unmap().  One
   hopes this will be rare, as it will be relatively expensive.

Original mm/internal.h, mm/rmap.c and mm/mlock.c changes:

89e004ea55 SHM_LOCKED pages are unevictable
Shmem segments locked into memory via shmctl(SHM_LOCKED) should not be
kept on the normal LRU, since scanning them is a waste of time and might
throw off kswapd's balancing algorithms.  Place them on the unevictable
LRU list instead.

Use the AS_UNEVICTABLE flag to mark address_space of SHM_LOCKed shared
memory regions as unevictable.  Then these pages will be culled off the
normal LRU lists during vmscan.

Add new wrapper function to clear the mapping's unevictable state when/if
shared memory segment is munlocked.

Add 'scan_mapping_unevictable_page()' to mm/vmscan.c to scan all pages in
the shmem segment's mapping [struct address_space] for evictability now
that they're no longer locked.  If so, move them to the appropriate zone
lru list.

Changes depend on [CONFIG_]UNEVICTABLE_LRU.

ba9ddf4939 Ramfs and Ram Disk pages are unevictable
Christoph Lameter pointed out that ram disk pages also clutter the LRU
lists.  When vmscan finds them dirty and tries to clean them, the ram disk
writeback function just redirties the page so that it goes back onto the
active list.  Round and round she goes...

With the ram disk driver [rd.c] replaced by the newer 'brd.c', this is no
longer the case, as ram disk pages are no longer maintained on the lru.
[This makes them unmigratable for defrag or memory hot remove, but that
can be addressed by a separate patch series.] However, the ramfs pages
behave like ram disk pages used to, so:

Define new address_space flag [shares address_space flags member with
mapping's gfp mask] to indicate that the address space contains all
unevictable pages.  This will provide for efficient testing of ramfs pages
in page_evictable().

Also provide wrapper functions to set/test the unevictable state to
minimize #ifdefs in ramfs driver and any other users of this facility.

Set the unevictable state on address_space structures for new ramfs
inodes.  Test the unevictable state in page_evictable() to cull
unevictable pages.

These changes depend on [CONFIG_]UNEVICTABLE_LRU.

894bc31041 Unevictable LRU Infrastructure
When the system contains lots of mlocked or otherwise unevictable pages,
the pageout code (kswapd) can spend lots of time scanning over these
pages.  Worse still, the presence of lots of unevictable pages can confuse
kswapd into thinking that more aggressive pageout modes are required,
resulting in all kinds of bad behaviour.

Infrastructure to manage pages excluded from reclaim--i.e., hidden from
vmscan.  Based on a patch by Larry Woodman of Red Hat.  Reworked to
maintain "unevictable" pages on a separate per-zone LRU list, to "hide"
them from vmscan.

Kosaki Motohiro added the support for the memory controller unevictable
lru list.

Pages on the unevictable list have both PG_unevictable and PG_lru set.
Thus, PG_unevictable is analogous to and mutually exclusive with
PG_active--it specifies which LRU list the page is on.

The unevictable infrastructure is enabled by a new mm Kconfig option
[CONFIG_]UNEVICTABLE_LRU.

A new function 'page_evictable(page, vma)' in vmscan.c tests whether or
not a page may be evictable.  Subsequent patches will add the various
!evictable tests.  We'll want to keep these tests light-weight for use in
shrink_active_list() and, possibly, the fault path.

To avoid races between tasks putting pages [back] onto an LRU list and
tasks that might be moving the page from non-evictable to evictable state,
the new function 'putback_lru_page()' -- inverse to 'isolate_lru_page()'
-- tests the "evictability" of a page after placing it on the LRU, before
dropping the reference.  If the page has become unevictable,
putback_lru_page() will redo the 'putback', thus moving the page to the
unevictable list.  This way, we avoid "stranding" evictable pages on the
unevictable list.

33c120ed28 more aggressively use lumpy reclaim
During an AIM7 run on a 16GB system, fork started failing around 32000
threads, despite the system having plenty of free swap and 15GB of
pageable memory.  This was on x86-64, so 8k stacks.

If a higher order allocation fails, we can either:
- keep evicting pages off the end of the LRUs and hope that
  we eventually create a contiguous region; this is somewhat
  unlikely if the system is under enough stress by new
  allocations
- after trying normal eviction for a bit, use lumpy reclaim

This patch switches the system to lumpy reclaim if the VM is having
trouble freeing enough pages, using the same threshold for detection as
used by pageout congestion wait.

7e9cd48420 vmscan: fix pagecache reclaim referenced bit check
Moving referenced pages back to the head of the active list creates a huge
scalability problem, because by the time a large memory system finally
runs out of free memory, every single page in the system will have been
referenced.

Not only do we not have the time to scan every single page on the active
list, but since they have will all have the referenced bit set, that bit
conveys no useful information.

A more scalable solution is to just move every page that hits the end of
the active list to the inactive list.

We clear the referenced bit off of mapped pages, which need just one
reference to be moved back onto the active list.

Unmapped pages will be moved back to the active list after two references
(see mark_page_accessed).  We preserve the PG_referenced flag on unmapped
pages to preserve accesses that were made while the page was on the active
list.

bits on all of memory, which can take ages on very large memory systems.

We can reduce the maximum number of pages that need to be scanned by not
taking the referenced state into account when deactivating an anonymous
page.  After all, every anonymous page starts out referenced, so why
check?

If an anonymous page gets referenced again before it reaches the end of
the inactive list, we move it back to the active list.

To keep the maximum amount of necessary work reasonable, we scale the
active to inactive ratio with the size of memory, using the formula
active:inactive ratio = sqrt(memory in GB * 10).

Kswapd CPU use now seems to scale by the amount of pageout bandwidth,
instead of by the amount of memory present in the system.

4f98a2fee8 vmscan: split LRU lists into anon & file sets
Split the LRU lists in two, one set for pages that are backed by real file
systems ("file") and one for pages that are backed by memory and swap
("anon").  The latter includes tmpfs.

The advantage of doing this is that the VM will not have to scan over lots
of anonymous pages (which we generally do not want to swap out), just to
find the page cache pages that it should evict.

This patch has the infrastructure and a basic policy to balance how much
we scan the anon lists and how much we scan the file lists.  The big
policy changes are in separate patches.

b2e185384f define page_file_cache() function
Define page_file_cache() function to answer the question:
	is page backed by a file?

Originally part of Rik van Riel's split-lru patch.  Extracted to make
available for other, independent reclaim patches.

Moved inline function to linux/mm_inline.h where it will be needed by
subsequent "split LRU" and "noreclaim" patches.

Unfortunately this needs to use a page flag, since the PG_swapbacked state
needs to be preserved all the way to the point where the page is last
removed from the LRU.  Trying to derive the status from other info in the
page resulted in wrong VM statistics in earlier split VM patchsets.

The total number of page flags in use on a 32 bit machine after this patch
is 19.

b69408e88b vmscan: Use an indexed array for LRU variables
Currently we are defining explicit variables for the inactive and active

code in several places in the reclaim code.

We are saving a few bytes in terms of code size:

Before:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
4097753  573120 4092484 8763357  85b7dd vmlinux

After:

4097729  573120 4092484 8763333  85b7c5 vmlinux

Having an easy way to add new lru lists may ease future work on the

62695a84eb vmscan: move isolate_lru_page() to vmscan.c
On large memory systems, the VM can spend way too much time scanning
through pages that it cannot (or should not) evict from memory.  Not only
does it use up CPU time, but it also provokes lock contention and can
leave large systems under memory presure in a catatonic state.

This patch series improves VM scalability by:

1) putting filesystem backed, swap backed and unevictable pages
   onto their own LRUs, so the system only scans the pages that it
   can/should evict from memory

2) switching to two handed clock replacement for the anonymous LRUs,
   so the number of pages that need to be scanned when the system
   starts swapping is bound to a reasonable number

3) keeping unevictable pages off the LRU completely, so the
   VM does not waste CPU time scanning them. ramfs, ramdisk,
   SHM_LOCKED shared memory segments and mlock()ed VMA pages
   are keept on the unevictable list.

This patch:

isolate_lru_page logically belongs to be in vmscan.c than migrate.c.

It is tough, because we don't need that function without memory migration
so there is a valid argument to have it in migrate.c.  However a
subsequent patch needs to make use of it in the core mm, so we can happily
move it to vmscan.c.

Also, make the function a little more generic by not requiring that it
adds an isolated page to a given list.  Callers can do that.

	Note that we now have '__isolate_lru_page()', that does
	something quite different, visible outside of vmscan.c
	for use with memory controller.  Methinks we need to
	rationalize these names/purposes.	--lts

d9d332e087 anon_vma_prepare: properly lock even newly allocated entries
The anon_vma code is very subtle, and we end up doing optimistic lookups
of anon_vmas under RCU in page_lock_anon_vma() with no locking.  Other
CPU's can also see the newly allocated entry immediately after we've
exposed it by setting "vma->anon_vma" to the new value.

We protect against the anon_vma being destroyed by having the SLAB
marked as SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, so the RCU lookup can depend on the
allocation not being destroyed - but it might still be free'd and
re-allocated here to a new vma.

As a result, we should not do the anon_vma list ops on a newly allocated
vma without proper locking.

b4d1d99fdd hugetlb: handle updating of ACCESSED and DIRTY in hugetlb_fault()
The page fault path for normal pages, if the fault is neither a no-page
fault nor a write-protect fault, will update the DIRTY and ACCESSED bits
in the page table appropriately.

The hugepage fault path, however, does not do this, handling only no-page
or write-protect type faults.  It assumes that either the ACCESSED and
DIRTY bits are irrelevant for hugepages (usually true, since they are
never swapped) or that they are handled by the arch code.

This is inconvenient for some software-loaded TLB architectures, where the
_PAGE_ACCESSED (_PAGE_DIRTY) bits need to be set to enable read (write)
access to the page at the TLB miss.  This could be worked around in the
arch TLB miss code, but the TLB miss fast path can be made simple more
easily if the hugetlb_fault() path handles this, as the normal page fault
path does.

8546232355 do_generic_file_read: s/EINTR/EIO/ if lock_page_killable() fails
If lock_page_killable() fails because the task was killed by SIGKILL or
any other fatal signal, do_generic_file_read() returns -EIO.

This seems to be OK, because in fact the userspace won't see this error,
the task will dequeue SIGKILL and exit.

However, /sbin/init is different, it will dequeue SIGKILL, ignore it, and
return to the user-space with the bogus -EIO.

Change the code to return the error code from lock_page_killable(), -EINTR.
This doesn't fix the bug, but perhaps makes sense anyway. Imho, with this
change the code looks a bit more logical, and the "good" init should handle
the spurious EINTR or short read.

Afaics we can also change lock_page_killable() to return -ERESTARTNOINTR,
but this can't prevent the short reads.

70096a561d SLOB: fix bogus ksize calculation fix
This fixes the previous fix, which was completely wrong on closer
inspection. This version has been manually tested with a user-space
test harness and generates sane values. A nearly identical patch has
been boot-tested.

The problem arose from changing how kmalloc/kfree handled alignment
padding without updating ksize to match. This brings it in sync.

85ba94ba05 SLOB: fix bogus ksize calculation
SLOB's ksize calculation was braindamaged and generally harmlessly
underreported the allocation size. But for very small buffers, it could
in fact overreport them, leading code depending on krealloc to overrun
the allocation and trample other data.

6babc32c41 mm: handle initialising compound pages at orders greater than MAX_ORDER
When we initialise a compound page we initialise the page flags and head
page pointer for all base pages spanned by that page.  When we initialise
a gigantic page (a page of order greater than or equal to MAX_ORDER) we
have to initialise more than MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES pages.  Currently we
assume that all elements of the mem_map in this page are contigious in
memory.  However this is only guarenteed out to MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES pages,
and with SPARSEMEM enabled they will not be contigious.  This leads us to
walk off the end of the first section and scribble on everything which
follows, BAD.

When we reach a MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES boundary we much locate the next
section of the mem_map.  As gigantic pages can only be maximally aligned
we know this will occur at exact multiple of MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES pages from
the start of the page.

This is a bug fix for the gigantic page support in hugetlbfs.

Credit to Mel Gorman for spotting the issue.

4b19de6d1c mm: tiny-shmem nommu fix
The previous patch db203d53d4 ("mm:
tiny-shmem fix lock ordering: mmap_sem vs i_mutex") to fix the lock
ordering in tiny-shmem breaks shared anonymous and IPC memory on NOMMU
architectures because it was using the expanding truncate to signal ramfs
to allocate a physically contiguous RAM backing the inode (otherwise it is
unusable for "memory mapping" it to userspace).

However do_truncate is what caused the lock ordering error, due to it
taking i_mutex.  In this case, we can actually just call ramfs directly to
allocate memory for the mapping, rather than go via truncate.

6c1b7f680d memory hotplug: missing zone->lock in test_pages_isolated()
__test_page_isolated_in_pageblock() in mm/page_isolation.c has a comment
saying that the caller must hold zone->lock. But the only caller of that
function, test_pages_isolated(), does not hold zone->lock and the lock is
also not acquired anywhere before. This patch adds the missing zone->lock
to test_pages_isolated().

We reproducibly run into BUG_ON(!PageBuddy(page)) in __offline_isolated_pages()
during memory hotplug stress test, see trace below. This patch fixes that
problem, it would be good if we could have it in 2.6.27.
