2010-10-26mm, page-allocator: do not check the state of a non-existant buddy during freeMel Gorman
There is a bug in commit 6dda9d55 ("page allocator: reduce fragmentation in buddy allocator by adding buddies that are merging to the tail of the free lists") that means a buddy at order MAX_ORDER is checked for merging. A page of this order never exists so at times, an effectively random piece of memory is being checked. Alan Curry has reported that this is causing memory corruption in userspace data on a PPC32 platform (http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/10/9/32). It is not clear why this is happening. It could be a cache coherency problem where pages mapped in both user and kernel space are getting different cache lines due to the bad read from kernel space (http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/10/13/179). It could also be that there are some special registers being io-remapped at the end of the memmap array and that a read has special meaning on them. Compiler bugs have been ruled out because the assembly before and after the patch looks relatively harmless. This patch fixes the problem by ensuring we are not reading a possibly invalid location of memory. It's not clear why the read causes corruption but one way or the other it is a buggy read.

scan_lru_pages returns pfn. So, it's type should be "unsigned long" not "int".

2010-10-08Encode huge page size for VM_FAULT_HWPOISON errorsAndi Kleen
This fixes a problem introduced with the hugetlb hwpoison handling The user space SIGBUS signalling wants to know the size of the hugepage that caused a HWPOISON fault. Unfortunately the architecture page fault handlers do not have easy access to the struct page. Pass the information out in the fault error code instead. I added a separate VM_FAULT_HWPOISON_LARGE bit for this case and encode the hpage index in some free upper bits of the fault code. The small page hwpoison keeps stays with the VM_FAULT_HWPOISON name to minimize changes. Also add code to hugetlb.h to convert that index into a page shift. Will be used in a further patch.

2010-10-08HWPOSION, hugetlb: recover from free hugepage error when !MF_COUNT_INCREASEDNaoya Horiguchi
Currently error recovery for free hugepage works only for MF_COUNT_INCREASED. This patch enables !MF_COUNT_INCREASED case. Free hugepages can be handled directly by alloc_huge_page() and dequeue_hwpoisoned_huge_page(), and both of them are protected by hugetlb_lock, so there is no race between them. Note that this patch defines the refcount of HWPoisoned hugepage dequeued from freelist is 1, deviated from present 0, thereby we can avoid race between unpoison and memory failure on free hugepage. This is reasonable because unlikely to free buddy pages, free hugepage is governed by hugetlbfs even after error handling finishes. And it also makes unpoison code added in the later patch cleaner.

2010-10-08hugetlb: fix metadata corruption in hugetlb_fault()Naoya Horiguchi
Since the PageHWPoison() check is for avoiding hwpoisoned page remained in pagecache mapping to the process, it should be done in "found in pagecache" branch, not in the common path. Otherwise, metadata corruption occurs if memory failure happens between alloc_huge_page() and lock_page() because page fault fails with metadata changes remained (such as refcount, mapcount, etc.) This patch moves the check to "found in pagecache" branch and fix the problem. ChangeLog since v2: - remove retry check in "new allocation" path. - make description more detailed - change patch name from "HWPOISON, hugetlb: move PG_HWPoison bit check" Signed-off-by: Naoya Horiguchi <n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com> Signed-off-by: Jun'ichi Nomura <j-nomura@ce.jp.nec.com> Acked-by: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Reviewed-by: Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

We need to check parent's thresholds if parent has use_hierarchy == 1 to be sure that parent's threshold events will be triggered even if parent itself is not active (no MEM_CGROUP_EVENTS).

2010-10-07HWPOISON: Stop shrinking at right page countAndi Kleen
When we call the slab shrinker to free a page we need to stop at page count one because the caller always holds a single reference, not zero. This avoids useless looping over slab shrinkers and freeing too much memory. Reviewed-by: Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

2010-10-06SLUB: Optimize slab_free() debug checkPekka Enberg
This patch optimizes slab_free() debug check to use "c->node != NUMA_NO_NODE" instead of "c->node >= 0" because the former generates smaller code on x86-64: Before: 4736: 48 39 70 08 cmp %rsi,0x8(%rax) 473a: 75 26 jne 4762 <kfree+0xa2> 473c: 44 8b 48 10 mov 0x10(%rax),%r9d 4740: 45 85 c9 test %r9d,%r9d 4743: 78 1d js 4762 <kfree+0xa2> After: 4736: 48 39 70 08 cmp %rsi,0x8(%rax) 473a: 75 23 jne 475f <kfree+0x9f> 473c: 83 78 10 ff cmpl $0xffffffffffffffff,0x10(%rax) 4740: 74 1d je 475f <kfree+0x9f> This patch also cleans up __slab_alloc() to use NUMA_NO_NODE instead of "-1" for enabling debugging for a per-CPU cache.
