sched: Fix race in task_call_func()
There is a very narrow race between schedule() and task_call_func().
CPU0 CPU1
__schedule()
rq_lock();
prev_state = READ_ONCE(prev->__state);
if (... && prev_state) {
deactivate_tasl(rq, prev, ...)
prev->on_rq = 0;
task_call_func()
raw_spin_lock_irqsave(p->pi_lock);
state = READ_ONCE(p->__state);
smp_rmb();
if (... || p->on_rq) // false!!!
rq = __task_rq_lock()
ret = func();
next = pick_next_task();
rq = context_switch(prev, next)
prepare_lock_switch()
spin_release(&__rq_lockp(rq)->dep_map...)
So while the task is on it's way out, it still holds rq->lock for a
little while, and right then task_call_func() comes in and figures it
doesn't need rq->lock anymore (because the task is already dequeued --
but still running there) and then the __set_task_frozen() thing observes
it's holding rq->lock and yells murder.
Avoid this by waiting for p->on_cpu to get cleared, which guarantees
the task is fully finished on the old CPU.
( While arguably the fixes tag is 'wrong' -- none of the previous
task_call_func() users appears to care for this case. )
Fixes:

sched: Introduce struct balance_callback to avoid CFI mismatches
Introduce distinct struct balance_callback instead of performing function
pointer casting which will trip CFI. Avoids warnings as found by Clang's
future -Wcast-function-type-strict option:
In file included from kernel/sched/core.c:84:
kernel/sched/sched.h:1755:15: warning: cast from 'void (*)(struct rq *)' to 'void (*)(struct callback_head *)' converts to incompatible function type [-Wcast-function-type-strict]
head->func = (void (*)(struct callback_head *))func;
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
No binary differences result from this change.
This patch is a cleanup based on Brad Spengler/PaX Team's modifications
to sched code in their last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my
understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code
are mine and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code.

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: - Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that). - Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock contention. Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees. Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up. - Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down to the single bit level. KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones. - Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of memory into THPs. - Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to support file/shmem-backed pages. - userfaultfd updates from Axel Rasmussen - zsmalloc cleanups from Alexey Romanov - cleanups from Miaohe Lin: vmscan, hugetlb_cgroup, hugetlb and memory-failure - Huang Ying adds enhancements to NUMA balancing memory tiering mode's page promotion, with a new way of detecting hot pages. - memcg updates from Shakeel Butt: charging optimizations and reduced memory consumption. - memcg cleanups from Kairui Song. - memcg fixes and cleanups from Johannes Weiner. - Vishal Moola provides more folio conversions - Zhang Yi removed ll_rw_block() :( - migration enhancements from Peter Xu - migration error-path bugfixes from Huang Ying - Aneesh Kumar added ability for a device driver to alter the memory tiering promotion paths. For optimizations by PMEM drivers, DRM drivers, etc. - vma merging improvements from Jakub Matěn. - NUMA hinting cleanups from David Hildenbrand. - xu xin added aditional userspace visibility into KSM merging activity. - THP & KSM code consolidation from Qi Zheng. - more folio work from Matthew Wilcox. - KASAN updates from Andrey Konovalov. - DAMON cleanups from Kaixu Xia. - DAMON work from SeongJae Park: fixes, cleanups. - hugetlb sysfs cleanups from Muchun Song. - Mike Kravetz fixes locking issues in hugetlbfs and in hugetlb core.

Merge tag 'bitmap-6.1-rc1' of https://github.com/norov/linux
Pull bitmap updates from Yury Norov:
- Fix unsigned comparison to -1 in CPUMAP_FILE_MAX_BYTES (Phil Auld)
- cleanup nr_cpu_ids vs nr_cpumask_bits mess (me)
This series cleans that mess and adds new config FORCE_NR_CPUS that
allows to optimize cpumask subsystem if the number of CPUs is known
at compile-time.
- optimize find_bit() functions (me)
Reworks find_bit() functions based on new FIND_{FIRST,NEXT}_BIT()
macros.
- add find_nth_bit() (me)
Adds find_nth_bit(), which is ~70 times faster than bitcounting with
for_each() loop:
for_each_set_bit(bit, mask, size)
if (n-- == 0)
return bit;
Also adds bitmap_weight_and() to let people replace this pattern:
tmp = bitmap_alloc(nbits);
bitmap_and(tmp, map1, map2, nbits);
weight = bitmap_weight(tmp, nbits);
bitmap_free(tmp);
with a single bitmap_weight_and() call.
- repair cpumask_check() (me)
After switching cpumask to use nr_cpu_ids, cpumask_check() started
generating many false-positive warnings. This series fixes it.
- Add for_each_cpu_andnot() and for_each_cpu_andnot() (Valentin
Schneider)
Extends the API with one more function and applies it in sched/core.

Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney: - Documentation updates. This is the first in a series from an ongoing review of the RCU documentation. "Why are people thinking -that- about RCU? Oh. Because that is an entirely reasonable interpretation of its documentation." - Miscellaneous fixes. - Improved memory allocation and heuristics. - Improve rcu_nocbs diagnostic output. - Add full-sized polled RCU grace period state values. These are the same size as an rcu_head structure, which is double that of the traditional unsigned long state values that may still be obtained from et_state_synchronize_rcu(). The added size avoids missing overlapping grace periods. This benefit is that call_rcu() can be replaced by polling, which can be attractive in situations where RCU-protected data is aged out of memory. Early in the series, the size of this state value is three unsigned longs. Later in the series, the fastpaths in synchronize_rcu() and synchronize_rcu_expedited() are reworked to permit the full state to be represented by only two unsigned longs. This reworking slows these two functions down in SMP kernels running either on single-CPU systems or on systems with all but one CPU offlined, but this should not be a significant problem. And if it somehow becomes a problem in some yet-as-unforeseen situations, three-value state values can be provided for only those situations. Finally, a pair of functions named same_state_synchronize_rcu() and same_state_synchronize_rcu_full() allow grace-period state values to be compared for equality. This permits users to maintain lists of data structures having the same state value, removing the need for per-data-structure grace-period state values, thus decreasing memory footprint. - Polled SRCU grace-period updates, including adding tests to rcutorture and reducing the incidence of Tiny SRCU grace-period-state counter wrap. - Improve Tasks RCU diagnostics and quiescent-state detection. * tag 'rcu.2022.09.30a' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu: (55 commits) rcutorture: Use the barrier operation specified by cur_ops rcu-tasks: Make RCU Tasks Trace check for userspace execution rcu-tasks: Ensure RCU Tasks Trace loops have quiescent states rcu-tasks: Convert RCU_LOCKDEP_WARN() to WARN_ONCE() srcu: Make Tiny SRCU use full-sized grace-period counters srcu: Make Tiny SRCU poll_state_synchronize_srcu() more precise srcu: Add GP and maximum requested GP to Tiny SRCU rcutorture output rcutorture: Make "srcud" option also test polled grace-period API rcutorture: Limit read-side polling-API testing rcu: Add functions to compare grace-period state values rcutorture: Expand rcu_torture_write_types() first "if" statement rcutorture: Use 1-suffixed variable in rcu_torture_write_types() check rcu: Make synchronize_rcu() fastpath update only boot-CPU counters rcutorture: Adjust rcu_poll_need_2gp() for rcu_gp_oldstate field removal rcu: Remove ->rgos_polled field from rcu_gp_oldstate structure rcu: Make synchronize_rcu_expedited() fast path update .expedited_sequence rcu: Remove expedited grace-period fast-path forward-progress helper rcu: Make synchronize_rcu() fast path update ->gp_seq counters rcu-tasks: Remove grace-period fast-path rcu-tasks helper rcu: Set rcu_data structures' initial ->gpwrap value to true ... |

sched: Fix TASK_state comparisons
Task state is fundamentally a bitmask; direct comparisons are probably
not working as intended. Specifically the normal wait-state have
a number of possible modifiers:
TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE: TASK_WAKEKILL, TASK_NOLOAD, TASK_FREEZABLE
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE: TASK_FREEZABLE
Specifically, the addition of TASK_FREEZABLE wrecked
__wait_is_interruptible(). This however led to an audit of direct
comparisons yielding the rest of the changes.
Fixes:

mm: multi-gen LRU: support page table walks
To further exploit spatial locality, the aging prefers to walk page tables
to search for young PTEs and promote hot pages. A kill switch will be
added in the next patch to disable this behavior. When disabled, the
aging relies on the rmap only.
NB: this behavior has nothing similar with the page table scanning in the
2.4 kernel [1], which searches page tables for old PTEs, adds cold pages
to swapcache and unmaps them.
To avoid confusion, the term "iteration" specifically means the traversal
of an entire mm_struct list; the term "walk" will be applied to page
tables and the rmap, as usual.
An mm_struct list is maintained for each memcg, and an mm_struct follows
its owner task to the new memcg when this task is migrated. Given an
lruvec, the aging iterates lruvec_memcg()->mm_list and calls
walk_page_range() with each mm_struct on this list to promote hot pages
before it increments max_seq.
When multiple page table walkers iterate the same list, each of them gets
a unique mm_struct; therefore they can run concurrently. Page table
walkers ignore any misplaced pages, e.g., if an mm_struct was migrated,
pages it left in the previous memcg will not be promoted when its current
memcg is under reclaim. Similarly, page table walkers will not promote
pages from nodes other than the one under reclaim.
This patch uses the following optimizations when walking page tables:
1. It tracks the usage of mm_struct's between context switches so that
page table walkers can skip processes that have been sleeping since
the last iteration.
2. It uses generational Bloom filters to record populated branches so
that page table walkers can reduce their search space based on the
query results, e.g., to skip page tables containing mostly holes or
misplaced pages.
3. It takes advantage of the accessed bit in non-leaf PMD entries when
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NONLEAF_PMD_YOUNG=y.
4. It does not zigzag between a PGD table and the same PMD table
spanning multiple VMAs. IOW, it finishes all the VMAs within the
range of the same PMD table before it returns to a PGD table. This
improves the cache performance for workloads that have large
numbers of tiny VMAs [2], especially when CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS=5.

memory tiering: adjust hot threshold automatically
The promotion hot threshold is workload and system configuration dependent. So in this patch, a method to adjust the hot threshold automatically is implemented. The basic idea is to control the number of the candidate promotion pages to match the promotion rate limit. If the hint page fault latency of a page is less than the hot threshold, we will try to promote the page, and the page is called the candidate promotion page. If the number of the candidate promotion pages in the statistics interval is much more than the promotion rate limit, the hot threshold will be decreased to reduce the number of the candidate promotion pages. Otherwise, the hot threshold will be increased to increase the number of the candidate promotion pages. To make the above method works, in each statistics interval, the total number of the pages to check (on which the hint page faults occur) and the hot/cold distribution need to be stable. Because the page tables are scanned linearly in NUMA balancing, but the hot/cold distribution isn't uniform along the address usually, the statistics interval should be larger than the NUMA balancing scan period. So in the patch, the max scan period is used as statistics interval and it works well in our tests.

memory tiering: rate limit NUMA migration throughput
In NUMA balancing memory tiering mode, if there are hot pages in slow memory node and cold pages in fast memory node, we need to promote/demote hot/cold pages between the fast and cold memory nodes. A choice is to promote/demote as fast as possible. But the CPU cycles and memory bandwidth consumed by the high promoting/demoting throughput will hurt the latency of some workload because of accessing inflating and slow memory bandwidth contention. A way to resolve this issue is to restrict the max promoting/demoting throughput. It will take longer to finish the promoting/demoting. But the workload latency will be better. This is implemented in this patch as the page promotion rate limit mechanism. The number of the candidate pages to be promoted to the fast memory node via NUMA balancing is counted, if the count exceeds the limit specified by the users, the NUMA balancing promotion will be stopped until the next second. A new sysctl knob kernel.numa_balancing_promote_rate_limit_MBps is added for the users to specify the limit.

memory tiering: hot page selection with hint page fault latency
Patch series "memory tiering: hot page selection", v4.
To optimize page placement in a memory tiering system with NUMA balancing,
the hot pages in the slow memory nodes need to be identified.
Essentially, the original NUMA balancing implementation selects the mostly
recently accessed (MRU) pages to promote. But this isn't a perfect
algorithm to identify the hot pages. Because the pages with quite low
access frequency may be accessed eventually given the NUMA balancing page
table scanning period could be quite long (e.g. 60 seconds). So in this
patchset, we implement a new hot page identification algorithm based on
the latency between NUMA balancing page table scanning and hint page
fault. Which is a kind of mostly frequently accessed (MFU) algorithm.
In NUMA balancing memory tiering mode, if there are hot pages in slow
memory node and cold pages in fast memory node, we need to promote/demote
hot/cold pages between the fast and cold memory nodes.
A choice is to promote/demote as fast as possible. But the CPU cycles and
memory bandwidth consumed by the high promoting/demoting throughput will
hurt the latency of some workload because of accessing inflating and slow
memory bandwidth contention.
A way to resolve this issue is to restrict the max promoting/demoting
throughput. It will take longer to finish the promoting/demoting. But
the workload latency will be better. This is implemented in this patchset
as the page promotion rate limit mechanism.
The promotion hot threshold is workload and system configuration
dependent. So in this patchset, a method to adjust the hot threshold
automatically is implemented. The basic idea is to control the number of
the candidate promotion pages to match the promotion rate limit.
We used the pmbench memory accessing benchmark tested the patchset on a
2-socket server system with DRAM and PMEM installed. The test results are
as follows,
pmbench score promote rate
(accesses/s) MB/s
------------- ------------
base 146887704.1 725.6
hot selection 165695601.2 544.0
rate limit 162814569.8 165.2
auto adjustment 170495294.0 136.9
From the results above,
With hot page selection patch [1/3], the pmbench score increases about
12.8%, and promote rate (overhead) decreases about 25.0%, compared with
base kernel.
With rate limit patch [2/3], pmbench score decreases about 1.7%, and
promote rate decreases about 69.6%, compared with hot page selection
patch.
With threshold auto adjustment patch [3/3], pmbench score increases about
4.7%, and promote rate decrease about 17.1%, compared with rate limit
patch.
Baolin helped to test the patchset with MySQL on a machine which contains
1 DRAM node (30G) and 1 PMEM node (126G).
sysbench /usr/share/sysbench/oltp_read_write.lua \
......
--tables=200 \
--table-size=1000000 \
--report-interval=10 \
--threads=16 \
--time=120
The tps can be improved about 5%.
This patch (of 3):
To optimize page placement in a memory tiering system with NUMA balancing,
the hot pages in the slow memory node need to be identified. Essentially,
the original NUMA balancing implementation selects the mostly recently
accessed (MRU) pages to promote. But this isn't a perfect algorithm to
identify the hot pages. Because the pages with quite low access frequency
may be accessed eventually given the NUMA balancing page table scanning
period could be quite long (e.g. 60 seconds). The most frequently
accessed (MFU) algorithm is better.
So, in this patch we implemented a better hot page selection algorithm.
Which is based on NUMA balancing page table scanning and hint page fault
as follows,
- When the page tables of the processes are scanned to change PTE/PMD
to be PROT_NONE, the current time is recorded in struct page as scan
time.
- When the page is accessed, hint page fault will occur. The scan
time is gotten from the struct page. And The hint page fault
latency is defined as
hint page fault time - scan time
The shorter the hint page fault latency of a page is, the higher the
probability of their access frequency to be higher. So the hint page
fault latency is a better estimation of the page hot/cold.
It's hard to find some extra space in struct page to hold the scan time.
Fortunately, we can reuse some bits used by the original NUMA balancing.
NUMA balancing uses some bits in struct page to store the page accessing
CPU and PID (referring to page_cpupid_xchg_last()). Which is used by the
multi-stage node selection algorithm to avoid to migrate pages shared
accessed by the NUMA nodes back and forth. But for pages in the slow
memory node, even if they are shared accessed by multiple NUMA nodes, as
long as the pages are hot, they need to be promoted to the fast memory
node. So the accessing CPU and PID information are unnecessary for the
slow memory pages. We can reuse these bits in struct page to record the
scan time. For the fast memory pages, these bits are used as before.
For the hot threshold, the default value is 1 second, which works well in
our performance test. All pages with hint page fault latency < hot
threshold will be considered hot.
It's hard for users to determine the hot threshold. So we don't provide a
kernel ABI to set it, just provide a debugfs interface for advanced users
to experiment. We will continue to work on a hot threshold automatic
adjustment mechanism.
The downside of the above method is that the response time to the workload
hot spot changing may be much longer. For example,
- A previous cold memory area becomes hot
- The hint page fault will be triggered. But the hint page fault
latency isn't shorter than the hot threshold. So the pages will
not be promoted.
- When the memory area is scanned again, maybe after a scan period,
the hint page fault latency measured will be shorter than the hot
threshold and the pages will be promoted.
To mitigate this, if there are enough free space in the fast memory node,
the hot threshold will not be used, all pages will be promoted upon the
hint page fault for fast response.
Thanks Zhong Jiang reported and tested the fix for a bug when disabling
memory tiering mode dynamically.
