Currently, /proc/sys/vm/swappiness can change swappiness ratio for global
reclaim. However, memcg reclaim doesn't have tuning parameter for itself.
In general, the optimal swappiness depend on workload. (e.g. hpc
workload need to low swappiness than the others.)
Then, per cgroup swappiness improve administrator tunability.

This patch implements per cgroup limit for usage of memory+swap. However
there are SwapCache, double counting of swap-cache and swap-entry is
avoided.
Mem+Swap controller works as following.
- memory usage is limited by memory.limit_in_bytes.
- memory + swap usage is limited by memory.memsw_limit_in_bytes.
This has following benefits.
- A user can limit total resource usage of mem+swap.
Without this, because memory resource controller doesn't take care of
usage of swap, a process can exhaust all the swap (by memory leak.)
We can avoid this case.
And Swap is shared resource but it cannot be reclaimed (goes back to memory)
until it's used. This characteristic can be trouble when the memory
is divided into some parts by cpuset or memcg.
Assume group A and group B.
After some application executes, the system can be..
Group A -- very large free memory space but occupy 99% of swap.
Group B -- under memory shortage but cannot use swap...it's nearly full.
Ability to set appropriate swap limit for each group is required.
Maybe someone wonder "why not swap but mem+swap ?"
- The global LRU(kswapd) can swap out arbitrary pages. Swap-out means
to move account from memory to swap...there is no change in usage of
mem+swap.
In other words, when we want to limit the usage of swap without affecting
global LRU, mem+swap limit is better than just limiting swap.
Accounting target information is stored in swap_cgroup which is
per swap entry record.
Charge is done as following.
map
- charge page and memsw.
unmap
- uncharge page/memsw if not SwapCache.
swap-out (__delete_from_swap_cache)
- uncharge page
- record mem_cgroup information to swap_cgroup.
swap-in (do_swap_page)
- charged as page and memsw.
record in swap_cgroup is cleared.
memsw accounting is decremented.
swap-free (swap_free())
- if swap entry is freed, memsw is uncharged by PAGE_SIZE.
There are people work under never-swap environments and consider swap as
something bad. For such people, this mem+swap controller extension is just an
overhead. This overhead is avoided by config or boot option.
(see Kconfig. detail is not in this patch.)
TODO:
- maybe more optimization can be don in swap-in path. (but not very safe.)
But we just do simple accounting at this stage.

For accounting swap, it's obvious that we have to use additional memory to
remember "who uses swap". This adds more overhead. So, it's better to
offer "choice" to users. This patch adds 2 choices.

SwapCache support for memory resource controller (memcg)
Before mem+swap controller, memcg itself should handle SwapCache in proper
way. This is cut-out from it.
In current memcg, SwapCache is just leaked and the user can create tons of
SwapCache. This is a leak of account and should be handled.
SwapCache accounting is done as following.
charge (anon)
- charged when it's mapped.
(because of readahead, charge at add_to_swap_cache() is not sane)
uncharge (anon)
- uncharged when it's dropped from swapcache and fully unmapped.
means it's not uncharged at unmap.
Note: delete from swap cache at swap-in is done after rmap information
is established.
charge (shmem)
- charged at swap-in. this prevents charge at add_to_page_cache().
uncharge (shmem)
- uncharged when it's dropped from swapcache and not on shmem's
radix-tree.
at migration, check against 'old page' is modified to handle shmem.
Comparing to the old version discussed (and caused troubles), we have
advantages of
- PCG_USED bit.
- simple migrating handling.
So, situation is much easier than several months ago, maybe.

By memcg-move-all-accounts-to-parent-at-rmdir.patch, there is no leak of

This patch adds "force_empty" again, in reasonable manner.
memory.force_empty file works when
#echo 0 (or some) > memory.force_empty
and have following function.
1. only works when there are no task in this cgroup.
2. free all page under this cgroup as much as possible.
3. page which cannot be freed will be moved up to parent.
4. Then, memcg will be empty after above echo returns.
This is much better behavior than old "force_empty" which just forget
all accounts. This patch also check signal_pending() and above "echo"
can be stopped by "Ctrl-C".

This patch provides a function to move account information of a page
between mem_cgroups and rewrite force_empty to make use of this.
This moving of page_cgroup is done under
- lru_lock of source/destination mem_cgroup is held.
- lock_page_cgroup() is held.
Then, a routine which touches pc->mem_cgroup without lock_page_cgroup()
should confirm pc->mem_cgroup is still valid or not. Typical code can be
following.
(while page is not under lock_page())
mem = pc->mem_cgroup;
mz = page_cgroup_zoneinfo(pc)
spin_lock_irqsave(&mz->lru_lock);
if (pc->mem_cgroup == mem)
...../* some list handling */
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mz->lru_lock);
Of course, better way is
lock_page_cgroup(pc);
....
unlock_page_cgroup(pc);
But you should confirm the nest of lock and avoid deadlock.
If you treats page_cgroup from mem_cgroup's LRU under mz->lru_lock,
you don't have to worry about what pc->mem_cgroup points to.
moved pages are added to head of lru, not to tail.
Expected users of this routine is:
- force_empty (rmdir)
- moving tasks between cgroup (for moving account information.)
- hierarchy (maybe useful.)
force_empty(rmdir) uses this move_account and move pages to its parent.
This "move" will not cause OOM (I added "oom" parameter to try_charge().)
If the parent is busy (not enough memory), force_empty calls try_to_free_page()
and reduce usage.
Purpose of this behavior is
- Fix "forget all" behavior of force_empty and avoid leak of accounting.
- By "moving first, free if necessary", keep pages on memory as much as
possible.
Adding a switch to change behavior of force_empty to
- free first, move if necessary
- free all, if there is mlocked/busy pages, return -EBUSY.
is under consideration. (I'll add if someone requtests.)
This patch also removes memory.force_empty file, a brutal debug-only interface.

NOMMU mmap allocates a piece of memory for an mmap that's rounded up in size to
the nearest power-of-2 number of pages. Currently it then discards the excess
pages back to the page allocator, making that memory available for use by other
things. This can, however, cause greater amount of fragmentation.
To counter this, a sysctl is added in order to fine-tune the trimming
behaviour. The default behaviour remains to trim pages aggressively, while
this can either be disabled completely or set to a higher page-granular
watermark in order to have finer-grained control.

Make VMAs per mm_struct as for MMU-mode linux. This solves two problems:
(1) In SYSV SHM where nattch for a segment does not reflect the number of
shmat's (and forks) done.
(2) In mmap() where the VMA's vm_mm is set to point to the parent mm by an
exec'ing process when VM_EXECUTABLE is specified, regardless of the fact
that a VMA might be shared and already have its vm_mm assigned to another
process or a dead process.
A new struct (vm_region) is introduced to track a mapped region and to remember
the circumstances under which it may be shared and the vm_list_struct structure
is discarded as it's no longer required.
This patch makes the following additional changes:
(1) Regions are now allocated with alloc_pages() rather than kmalloc() and
with no recourse to __GFP_COMP, so the pages are not composite. Instead,
each page has a reference on it held by the region. Anything else that is
interested in such a page will have to get a reference on it to retain it.
When the pages are released due to unmapping, each page is passed to
put_page() and will be freed when the page usage count reaches zero.
(2) Excess pages are trimmed after an allocation as the allocation must be
made as a power-of-2 quantity of pages.
(3) VMAs are added to the parent MM's R/B tree and mmap lists. As an MM may
end up with overlapping VMAs within the tree, the VMA struct address is
appended to the sort key.
(4) Non-anonymous VMAs are now added to the backing inode's prio list.
(5) Holes may be punched in anonymous VMAs with munmap(), releasing parts of
the backing region. The VMA and region structs will be split if
necessary.
(6) sys_shmdt() only releases one attachment to a SYSV IPC shared memory
segment instead of all the attachments at that addresss. Multiple
shmat()'s return the same address under NOMMU-mode instead of different
virtual addresses as under MMU-mode.
(7) Core dumping for ELF-FDPIC requires fewer exceptions for NOMMU-mode.
(8) /proc/maps is now the global list of mapped regions, and may list bits
that aren't actually mapped anywhere.
(9) /proc/meminfo gains a line (tagged "MmapCopy") that indicates the amount
of RAM currently allocated by mmap to hold mappable regions that can't be
mapped directly. These are copies of the backing device or file if not
anonymous.
These changes make NOMMU mode more similar to MMU mode. The downside is that
NOMMU mode requires some extra memory to track things over NOMMU without this
patch (VMAs are no longer shared, and there are now region structs).

Device drivers that use pci_request_regions() (and similar APIs) have a
reasonable expectation that they are the only ones accessing their device.
As part of the e1000e hunt, we were afraid that some userland (X or some
bootsplash stuff) was mapping the MMIO region that the driver thought it
had exclusively via /dev/mem or via various sysfs resource mappings.
This patch adds the option for device drivers to cause their reserved
regions to the "banned from /dev/mem use" list, so now both kernel memory
and device-exclusive MMIO regions are banned.
NOTE: This is only active when CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM is set.
In addition to the config option, a kernel parameter iomem=relaxed is
provided for the cases where developers want to diagnose, in the field,

Introduce a new kernel parameter `coredump_filter'. Setting a value to
this parameter causes the default bitmask of coredump_filter to be
changed.
It is useful for users to change coredump_filter settings for the whole
system at boot time. Without this parameter, users have to change
coredump_filter settings for each /proc/<pid>/ in an initializing script.

Allows kprobes to probe __exit routine. This adds flags member to struct
kprobe. When module is freed(kprobes hooks module_notifier to get this
event), kprobes which probe the functions in that module are set to "Gone"
flag to the flags member. These "Gone" probes are never be enabled.
Users can check the GONE flag through debugfs.
This also removes mod_refcounted, because we couldn't free a module if
kprobe incremented the refcount of that module.

f_op->poll is the only vfs operation which is not allowed to sleep. It's
because poll and select implementation used task state to synchronize
against wake ups, which doesn't have to be the case anymore as wait/wake
interface can now use custom wake up functions. The non-sleep restriction
can be a bit tricky because ->poll is not called from an atomic context
and the result of accidentally sleeping in ->poll only shows up as
temporary busy looping when the timing is right or rather wrong.
This patch converts poll/select to use custom wake up function and use
separate triggered variable to synchronize against wake up events. The
only added overhead is an extra function call during wake up and
negligible.
This patch removes the one non-sleep exception from vfs locking rules and
is beneficial to userland filesystem implementations like FUSE, 9p or
peculiar fs like spufs as it's very difficult for those to implement
non-sleeping poll method.
While at it, make the following cosmetic changes to make poll.h and
select.c checkpatch friendly.
* s/type * symbol/type *symbol/ : three places in poll.h
* remove blank line before EXPORT_SYMBOL() : two places in select.c

An unfortunate feature of the Unevictable LRU work was that reclaiming an
anonymous page involved an extra scan through the anon_vma: to check that
the page is evictable before allocating swap, because the swap could not
be freed reliably soon afterwards.
Now try_to_free_swap() has replaced remove_exclusive_swap_page(), that's
not an issue any more: remove try_to_munlock() call from
shrink_page_list(), leaving it to try_to_munmap() to discover if the page
is one to be culled to the unevictable list - in which case then
try_to_free_swap().
Update unevictable-lru.txt to remove comments on the try_to_munlock() in
shrink_page_list(), and shorten some lines over 80 columns.

This change introduces two new sysctls to /proc/sys/vm:
dirty_background_bytes and dirty_bytes.
dirty_background_bytes is the counterpart to dirty_background_ratio and
dirty_bytes is the counterpart to dirty_ratio.
With growing memory capacities of individual machines, it's no longer
sufficient to specify dirty thresholds as a percentage of the amount of
dirtyable memory over the entire system.
dirty_background_bytes and dirty_bytes specify quantities of memory, in
bytes, that represent the dirty limits for the entire system. If either
of these values is set, its value represents the amount of dirty memory
that is needed to commence either background or direct writeback.
When a `bytes' or `ratio' file is written, its counterpart becomes a
function of the written value. For example, if dirty_bytes is written to
be 8096, 8K of memory is required to commence direct writeback.
dirty_ratio is then functionally equivalent to 8K / the amount of
dirtyable memory:
dirtyable_memory = free pages + mapped pages + file cache
dirty_background_bytes = dirty_background_ratio * dirtyable_memory
-or-
dirty_background_ratio = dirty_background_bytes / dirtyable_memory
AND
dirty_bytes = dirty_ratio * dirtyable_memory
-or-
dirty_ratio = dirty_bytes / dirtyable_memory
Only one of dirty_background_bytes and dirty_background_ratio may be
specified at a time, and only one of dirty_bytes and dirty_ratio may be
specified. When one sysctl is written, the other appears as 0 when read.
The `bytes' files operate on a page size granularity since dirty limits
are compared with ZVC values, which are in page units.
Prior to this change, the minimum dirty_ratio was 5 as implemented by
get_dirty_limits() although /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio would show any user
written value between 0 and 100. This restriction is maintained, but
dirty_bytes has a lower limit of only one page.
Also prior to this change, the dirty_background_ratio could not equal or
exceed dirty_ratio. This restriction is maintained in addition to
restricting dirty_background_bytes. If either background threshold equals
or exceeds that of the dirty threshold, it is implicitly set to half the
dirty threshold.

Show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfs
Add /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/memoryY symlinks for all
the memory sections located on nodeX. For example:
/sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory135 -> ../../memory/memory135
indicates that memory section 135 resides on node1.
Also revises documentation to cover this change as well as updating
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-memory to include descriptions
of memory hotremove files 'phys_device', 'phys_index', and 'state'
that were previously not described there.
In addition to it always being a good policy to provide users with
the maximum possible amount of physical location information for
resources that can be hot-added and/or hot-removed, the following
are some (but likely not all) of the user benefits provided by
this change.
Immediate:
- Provides information needed to determine the specific node
on which a defective DIMM is located. This will reduce system
downtime when the node or defective DIMM is swapped out.
- Prevents unintended onlining of a memory section that was
previously offlined due to a defective DIMM. This could happen
during node hot-add when the user or node hot-add assist script
onlines _all_ offlined sections due to user or script inability
to identify the specific memory sections located on the hot-added
node. The consequences of reintroducing the defective memory
could be ugly.
- Provides information needed to vary the amount and distribution
of memory on specific nodes for testing or debugging purposes.
Future:
- Will provide information needed to identify the memory
sections that need to be offlined prior to physical removal
of a specific node.
Symlink creation during boot was tested on 2-node x86_64, 2-node
ppc64, and 2-node ia64 systems. Symlink creation during physical
memory hot-add tested on a 2-node x86_64 system.

This mount option is largely superfluous, and in fact the way it was
implemented was buggy; if a filesystem which did not have the extents
feature flag was mounted -o extents, the filesystem would attempt to
create and use extents-based file even though the extents feature flag
was not eabled. The simplest thing to do is to nuke the mount option
entirely. It's not all that useful to force the non-creation of new
extent-based files if the filesystem can support it.

"Wouldn't it be better if the dmaengine layer made sure it didn't pass
the same channel several times to a client?
I mean, you seem concerned that the memcpy() API should be transparent
and easy to use, but the whole registration interface is just
ridiculously complicated..."
- Haavard
The dmaengine and async_tx registration/allocation interface is indeed
needlessly complicated. This redesign has the following goals:
1/ Simplify reference counting: dma channels are not something one would
expect to be hotplugged, it should be an exceptional event handled by
drivers not something clients should be mandated to handle in a
callback. The common case channel removal event is 'rmmod <dma driver>',
which for simplicity should be disallowed if the channel is in use.
2/ Add an interface for requesting exclusive access to a channel
suitable to device-to-memory users.
3/ Convert all memory-to-memory users over to a common allocator, the goal
here is to not have competing channel allocation schemes. The only
competition should be between device-to-memory exclusive allocations and
the memory-to-memory usage case where channels are shared between
multiple "clients".

as it is for debugging and testing only.

This patch is the first step towards removing the old "compat_net" code from
the kernel. Secmark, the "compat_net" replacement was first introduced in
2.6.18 (September 2006) and the major Linux distributions with SELinux support
have transitioned to Secmark so it is time to start deprecating the "compat_net"
mechanism. Testing a patched version of 2.6.28-rc6 with the initial release of
Fedora Core 5 did not show any problems when running in enforcing mode.
This patch adds an entry to the feature-removal-schedule.txt file and removes
the SECURITY_SELINUX_ENABLE_SECMARK_DEFAULT configuration option, forcing
Secmark on by default although it can still be disabled at runtime. The patch
also makes the Secmark permission checks "dynamic" in the sense that they are
only executed when Secmark is configured; this should help prevent problems
with older distributions that have not yet migrated to Secmark.

PXA27x and later processors support overlay1 and overlay2 on-top of the
base framebuffer (although under-neath the base is also possible). They
support palette and no-palette RGB formats, as well as YUV formats (only
available on overlay2). These overlays have dedicated DMA channels and
behave in a similar way as a framebuffer.
This heavily simplified and re-structured work is based on the original
pxafb_overlay.c (which is pending for mainline merge for a long time).
The major problems with this pxafb_overlay.c are (if you are interested
in the history):
1. heavily redundant (the control logics for overlay1 and overlay2 are
actually identical except for some small operations, which are now
abstracted into a 'pxafb_layer_ops' structure)
2. a lot of useless and un-tested code (two workarounds which are now
fixed on mature silicons)
3. cursorfb is actually useless, hardware cursor should not be used
this way, and the code was actually un-tested for a long time.
The code in this patch should be self-explanatory, I tried to add minimum
comments. As said, this is basically simplified, there are several things
still on the pending list:
1. palette mode is un-supported and un-tested (although re-using the
palette code of the base framebuffer is actually very easy now with
previous clean-up patches)
2. fb_pan_display for overlay(s) is un-supported
3. the base framebuffer can actually be abstracted by 'pxafb_layer' as
well, which will help further re-use of the code and keep a better
and consistent structure. (This is the reason I named it 'pxafb_layer'
instead of 'pxafb_overlay' or something alike)
See Documentation/fb/pxafb.txt for additional usage information.

The amount of video memory size is decided according to the following
order:
1. <xres> x <yres> x <bits_per_pixel> by default, which is the backward
compatible way
2. size specified in platform data
3. size specified in module parameter 'options' string or specified in
kernel boot command line (see updated Documentation/fb/pxafb.txt)
And now since the memory is allocated from system memory, the pxafb_mmap
can be removed and the default fb_mmap() should be working all right.
Also, since we now have introduced the 'struct pxafb_dma_buff' for DMA
descriptors and palettes, the allocation can be separated cleanly.
NOTE: the LCD DMA actually supports chained transfer (i.e. page-based
transfers), to simplify the logic and keep the performance (with less
TLB misses when accessing from memory mapped user space), the memory
is allocated by alloc_pages_*() to ensures it's physical contiguous.
