* slub: Fix sysfs duplicate filename creation when slub_debug=OMiles Chen2017-11-241-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When slub_debug=O is set. It is possible to clear debug flags for an "unmergeable" slab cache in kmem_cache_open(). It makes the "unmergeable" cache became "mergeable" in sysfs_slab_add(). These caches will generate their "unique IDs" by create_unique_id(), but it is possible to create identical unique IDs. In my experiment, sgpool-128, names_cache, biovec-256 generate the same ID ":Ft-0004096" and the kernel reports "sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/kernel/slab/:Ft-0004096'". To repeat my experiment, set disable_higher_order_debug=1, CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON=y in kernel-4.14. Fix this issue by setting unmergeable=1 if slub_debug=O and the the default slub_debug contains any no-merge flags. call path: kmem_cache_create() __kmem_cache_alias() -> we set SLAB_NEVER_MERGE flags here create_cache() __kmem_cache_create() kmem_cache_open() -> clear DEBUG_METADATA_FLAGS sysfs_slab_add() -> the slab cache is mergeable now [ 0.674272] sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/kernel/slab/:Ft-0004096' [ 0.674473] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 0.674653] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at fs/sysfs/dir.c:31 sysfs_warn_dup+0x60/0x7c [ 0.674847] Modules linked in: [ 0.674969] CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Tainted: G W 4.14.0-rc7ajb-00131-gd4c2e9f-dirty #123 [ 0.675211] Hardware name: linux,dummy-virt (DT) [ 0.675342] task: ffffffc07d4e0080 task.stack: ffffff8008008000 [ 0.675505] PC is at sysfs_warn_dup+0x60/0x7c [ 0.675633] LR is at sysfs_warn_dup+0x60/0x7c [ 0.675759] pc : [<ffffff8008235808>] lr : [<ffffff8008235808>] pstate: 60000145 [ 0.675948] sp : ffffff800800bb40 [ 0.676048] x29: ffffff800800bb40 x28: 0000000000000040 [ 0.676209] x27: ffffffc07c52a380 x26: 0000000000000000 [ 0.676369] x25: ffffff8008af4ad0 x24: ffffff8008af4000 [ 0.676528] x23: ffffffc07c532580 x22: ffffffc07cf04598 [ 0.676695] x21: ffffffc07cf26578 x20: ffffffc07c533700 [ 0.676857] x19: ffffffc07ce67000 x18: 0000000000000002 [ 0.677017] x17: 0000000000007ffe x16: 0000000000000007 [ 0.677176] x15: 0000000000000001 x14: 0000000000007fff [ 0.677335] x13: 0000000000000394 x12: 0000000000000000 [ 0.677492] x11: 00000000000001ab x10: 0000000000000007 [ 0.677651] x9 : 00000000000001ac x8 : ffffff800835d114 [ 0.677809] x7 : 656b2f2720656d61 x6 : 0000000000000017 [ 0.677967] x5 : ffffffc07ffdb9a8 x4 : 0000000000000000 [ 0.678124] x3 : 0000000000000000 x2 : ffffffffffffffff [ 0.678282] x1 : ffffff8008a4e878 x0 : 0000000000000042 [ 0.678442] Call trace: [ 0.678528] Exception stack(0xffffff800800ba00 to 0xffffff800800bb40) [ 0.678706] ba00: 0000000000000042 ffffff8008a4e878 ffffffffffffffff 0000000000000000 [ 0.678914] ba20: 0000000000000000 ffffffc07ffdb9a8 0000000000000017 656b2f2720656d61 [ 0.679121] ba40: ffffff800835d114 00000000000001ac 0000000000000007 00000000000001ab [ 0.679326] ba60: 0000000000000000 0000000000000394 0000000000007fff 0000000000000001 [ 0.679532] ba80: 0000000000000007 0000000000007ffe 0000000000000002 ffffffc07ce67000 [ 0.679739] baa0: ffffffc07c533700 ffffffc07cf26578 ffffffc07cf04598 ffffffc07c532580 [ 0.679944] bac0: ffffff8008af4000 ffffff8008af4ad0 0000000000000000 ffffffc07c52a380 [ 0.680149] bae0: 0000000000000040 ffffff800800bb40 ffffff8008235808 ffffff800800bb40 [ 0.680354] bb00: ffffff8008235808 0000000060000145 ffffffc07c533700 0000000062616c73 [ 0.680560] bb20: ffffffffffffffff 0000000000000000 ffffff800800bb40 ffffff8008235808 [ 0.680774] [<ffffff8008235808>] sysfs_warn_dup+0x60/0x7c [ 0.680928] [<ffffff8008235920>] sysfs_create_dir_ns+0x98/0xa0 [ 0.681095] [<ffffff8008539274>] kobject_add_internal+0xa0/0x294 [ 0.681267] [<ffffff80085394f8>] kobject_init_and_add+0x90/0xb4 [ 0.681435] [<ffffff80081b524c>] sysfs_slab_add+0x90/0x200 [ 0.681592] [<ffffff80081b62a0>] __kmem_cache_create+0x26c/0x438 [ 0.681769] [<ffffff80081858a4>] kmem_cache_create+0x164/0x1f4 [ 0.681940] [<ffffff80086caa98>] sg_pool_init+0x60/0x100 [ 0.682094] [<ffffff8008084144>] do_one_initcall+0x38/0x12c [ 0.682254] [<ffffff80086a0d10>] kernel_init_freeable+0x138/0x1d4 [ 0.682423] [<ffffff8008547388>] kernel_init+0x10/0xfc [ 0.682571] [<ffffff80080851e0>] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x18 Signed-off-by: Miles Chen <miles.chen@mediatek.com>

Although there would be no contention to adding the lock, that lock also requires disabling of interrupts which will have a larger impact on the system. Instead of adding a spinlock to a location where it is not needed for lockdep, make a __remove_partial() function that does not test if the list_lock is held, as no one should have it due to it being freed. Also added a __add_partial() function that does not do the lock validation either, as it is not needed for the creation of the cache.

* mm: slub: work around unneeded lockdep warningDave Hansen2016-09-281-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The slub code does some setup during early boot in early_kmem_cache_node_alloc() with some local data. There is no possible way that another CPU can see this data, so the slub code doesn't unnecessarily lock it. However, some new lockdep asserts check to make sure that add_partial() _always_ has the list_lock held. Just add the locking, even though it is technically unnecessary.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Tracing of mergeable slabs as well as uses of failslab are confusing since the objects of multiple slab caches will be affected. Moreover this creates a situation where a mergeable slab will become unmergeable. If tracing or failslab testing is desired then it may be best to switch merging off for starters.

* slub: fix off by one in number of slab testsJoonsoo Kim2016-09-281-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | min_partial means minimum number of slab cached in node partial list. So, if nr_partial is less than it, we keep newly empty slab on node partial list rather than freeing it. But if nr_partial is equal or greater than it, it means that we have enough partial slabs so should free newly empty slab. Current implementation missed the equal case so if we set min_partial is 0, then, at least one slab could be cached. This is critical problem to kmemcg destroying logic because it doesn't works properly if some slabs is cached. This patch fixes this problem. Fixes 91cb69620284 ("slub: make dead memcg caches discard free slabs immediately").

* slub: search partial list on numa_mem_id(), instead of numa_node_id()Joonsoo Kim2016-09-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, if allocation constraint to node is NUMA_NO_NODE, we search a partial slab on numa_node_id() node. This doesn't work properly on a system having memoryless nodes, since it can have no memory on that node so there must be no partial slab on that node. On that node, page allocation always falls back to numa_mem_id() first. So searching a partial slab on numa_node_id() in that case is the proper solution for the memoryless node case.

* mm: slub: fix ALLOC_SLOWPATH statDave Hansen2016-09-281-5/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There used to be only one path out of __slab_alloc(), and ALLOC_SLOWPATH got bumped in that exit path. Now there are two, and a bunch of gotos. ALLOC_SLOWPATH can now get set more than once during a single call to __slab_alloc() which is pretty bogus. Here's the sequence: 1. Enter __slab_alloc(), fall through all the way to the stat(s, ALLOC_SLOWPATH); 2. hit 'if (!freelist)', and bump DEACTIVATE_BYPASS, jump to new_slab (goto #1) 3. Hit 'if (c->partial)', bump CPU_PARTIAL_ALLOC, goto redo (goto #2) 4. Fall through in the same path we did before all the way to stat(s, ALLOC_SLOWPATH) 5. bump ALLOC_REFILL stat, then return Doing this is obviously bogus. It keeps us from being able to accurately compare ALLOC_SLOWPATH vs. ALLOC_FASTPATH. It also means that the total number of allocs always exceeds the total number of frees. This patch moves stat(s, ALLOC_SLOWPATH) to be called from the same place that __slab_alloc() is. This makes it much less likely that ALLOC_SLOWPATH will get botched again in the spaghetti-code inside __slab_alloc().

* mm, slab: suppress out of memory warning unless debug is enabledDavid Rientjes2016-09-281-12/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the slab or slub allocators cannot allocate additional slab pages, they emit diagnostic information to the kernel log such as current number of slabs, number of objects, active objects, etc. This is always coupled with a page allocation failure warning since it is controlled by !__GFP_NOWARN. Suppress this out of memory warning if the allocator is configured without debug supported. The page allocation failure warning will indicate it is a failed slab allocation, the order, and the gfp mask, so this is only useful to diagnose allocator issues. Since CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG is already enabled by default for the slub allocator, there is no functional change with this patch. If debug is disabled, however, the warnings are now suppressed.

* slub: rework sysfs layout for memcg cachesVladimir Davydov2016-09-281-1/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, we try to arrange sysfs entries for memcg caches in the same manner as for global caches. Apart from turning /sys/kernel/slab into a mess when there are a lot of kmem-active memcgs created, it actually does not work properly - we won't create more than one link to a memcg cache in case its parent is merged with another cache. For instance, if A is a root cache merged with another root cache B, we will have the following sysfs setup: X A -> X B -> X where X is some unique id (see create_unique_id()). Now if memcgs M and N start to allocate from cache A (or B, which is the same), we will get: X X:M X:N A -> X B -> X A:M -> X:M A:N -> X:N Since B is an alias for A, we won't get entries B:M and B:N, which is confusing. It is more logical to have entries for memcg caches under the corresponding root cache's sysfs directory. This would allow us to keep sysfs layout clean, and avoid such inconsistencies like one described above. This patch does the trick. It creates a "cgroup" kset in each root cache kobject to keep its children caches there.

* memcg, slab: never try to merge memcg cachesVladimir Davydov2016-09-281-10/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a kmem cache is created (kmem_cache_create_memcg()), we first try to find a compatible cache that already exists and can handle requests from the new cache, i.e. has the same object size, alignment, ctor, etc. If there is such a cache, we do not create any new caches, instead we simply increment the refcount of the cache found and return it. Currently we do this procedure not only when creating root caches, but also for memcg caches. However, there is no point in that, because, as every memcg cache has exactly the same parameters as its parent and cache merging cannot be turned off in runtime (only on boot by passing "slub_nomerge"), the root caches of any two potentially mergeable memcg caches should be merged already, i.e. it must be the same root cache, and therefore we couldn't even get to the memcg cache creation, because it already exists. The only exception is boot caches - they are explicitly forbidden to be merged by setting their refcount to -1. There are currently only two of them - kmem_cache and kmem_cache_node, which are used in slab internals (I do not count kmalloc caches as their refcount is set to 1 immediately after creation). Since they are prevented from merging preliminary I guess we should avoid to merge their children too. So let's remove the useless code responsible for merging memcg caches.

* slub: do not drop slab_mutex for sysfs_slab_addVladimir Davydov2016-09-281-5/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We release the slab_mutex while calling sysfs_slab_add from __kmem_cache_create since commit 66c4c35c6bc5 ("slub: Do not hold slub_lock when calling sysfs_slab_add()"), because kobject_uevent called by sysfs_slab_add might block waiting for the usermode helper to exec, which would result in a deadlock if we took the slab_mutex while executing it. However, apart from complicating synchronization rules, releasing the slab_mutex on kmem cache creation can result in a kmemcg-related race. The point is that we check if the memcg cache exists before going to __kmem_cache_create, but register the new cache in memcg subsys after it. Since we can drop the mutex there, several threads can see that the memcg cache does not exist and proceed to creating it, which is wrong. Fortunately, recently kobject_uevent was patched to call the usermode helper with the UMH_NO_WAIT flag, making the deadlock impossible. Therefore there is no point in releasing the slab_mutex while calling sysfs_slab_add, so let's simplify kmem_cache_create synchronization and fix the kmemcg-race mentioned above by holding the slab_mutex during the whole cache creation path.

Although there would be no contention to adding the lock, that lock also requires disabling of interrupts which will have a larger impact on the system. Instead of adding a spinlock to a location where it is not needed for lockdep, make a __remove_partial() function that does not test if the list_lock is held, as no one should have it due to it being freed. Also added a __add_partial() function that does not do the lock validation either, as it is not needed for the creation of the cache.

But the SLUB code is relatively lockless, and the spin_locks there are raw_spin_locks (not converted to mutexes), thus I believe this bug can happen in mainline without -rt features. The -rt patch is just good at triggering mainline bugs ;-) Anyway, looking at where this crashed, it seems that the page variable can be NULL when passed to the node_match() function (which does not check if it is NULL). When this happens we get the above panic. As page is only used in slab_alloc() to check if the node matches, if it's NULL I'm assuming that we can say it doesn't and call the __slab_alloc() code. Is this a correct assumption?

* slub: Make cpu partial slab support configurableJoonsoo Kim2016-09-281-6/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | CPU partial support can introduce level of indeterminism that is not wanted in certain context (like a realtime kernel). Make it configurable. This patch is based on Christoph Lameter's "slub: Make cpu partial slab support configurable V2".

* mm/slub: optimize alloc/free fastpath by removing preemption on/offJoonsoo Kim2016-08-261-12/+23

It is the problem only for CONFIG_PREEMPT in which scheduler can move the process to other cpu during retrieving data. Now, I reach the solution to remove preempt enable/disable in the fastpath. If tid is matched with kmem_cache_cpu's tid after tid and kmem_cache_cpu are retrieved by separate this_cpu operation, it means that they are retrieved on the same cpu. If not matched, we just have to retry it. With this guarantee, preemption enable/disable isn't need at all even if CONFIG_PREEMPT, so this patch removes it. I saw roughly 5% win in a fast-path loop over kmem_cache_alloc/free in CONFIG_PREEMPT. (14.821 ns -> 14.049 ns) Below is the result of Christoph's slab_test reported by Jesper Dangaard Brouer. * Before Single thread testing ===================== 1.

Note that this change slightly worses performance in !CONFIG_PREEMPT, roughly 0.3%. Implementing each case separately would help performance, but, since it's so marginal, I didn't do that. This would help maintanance since we have same code for all cases.
