It is because khugepaged allocates pages with __GFP_THISNODE, but the
preferred node is bogus. The previous patch fixed the khugepaged code to
avoid allocating page from non-existing node. But it is still racy
against memory hotremove. There is no synchronization with the memory
hotplug so it is possible that memory gets offline during a longer taking
scanning.
So this warning still seems not quite helpful because:
* There is no guarantee the node is online for __GFP_THISNODE context
for all the callsites.
* Kernel just fails the allocation regardless the warning, and it looks
all callsites handle the allocation failure gracefully.
Although while the warning has helped to identify a buggy code, it is not
safe in general and this warning could panic the system with panic-on-warn
configuration which tends to be used surprisingly often. So replace
VM_WARN_ON to pr_warn(). And the warning will be triggered if
__GFP_NOWARN is set since the allocator would print out warning for such
case if __GFP_NOWARN is not set.

Poisoning freed pages protects against kernel use-after-free. The
likelihood of such a bug involving kernel pages is significantly higher
than that for user pages. At the same time, poisoning freed pages can
impose a significant performance cost, which cannot always be justified
for user pages given the lower probability of finding a bug. Therefore,
disable freed user page poisoning when using HW tags. We identify
"user" pages via the flag set GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE, which indicates
a strong likelihood of not being directly accessible to the kernel.

Currently, on an anonymous page fault, the kernel allocates a zeroed
page and maps it in user space. If the mapping is tagged (PROT_MTE),
set_pte_at() additionally clears the tags. It is, however, more
efficient to clear the tags at the same time as zeroing the data on
allocation. To avoid clearing the tags on any page (which may not be
mapped as tagged), only do this if the vma flags contain VM_MTE. This
requires introducing a new GFP flag that is used to determine whether
to clear the tags.
The DC GZVA instruction with a 0 top byte (and 0 tag) requires
top-byte-ignore. Set the TCR_EL1.{TBI1,TBID1} bits irrespective of
whether KASAN_HW is enabled.

Patch series "mm,thp,shm: limit shmem THP alloc gfp_mask", v6.
The allocation flags of anonymous transparent huge pages can be controlled
through the files in /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag, which can
help the system from getting bogged down in the page reclaim and
compaction code when many THPs are getting allocated simultaneously.
However, the gfp_mask for shmem THP allocations were not limited by those
configuration settings, and some workloads ended up with all CPUs stuck on
the LRU lock in the page reclaim code, trying to allocate dozens of THPs
simultaneously.
This patch applies the same configurated limitation of THPs to shmem
hugepage allocations, to prevent that from happening.
This way a THP defrag setting of "never" or "defer+madvise" will result in
quick allocation failures without direct reclaim when no 2MB free pages
are available.
With this patch applied, THP allocations for tmpfs will be a little more
aggressive than today for files mmapped with MADV_HUGEPAGE, and a little
less aggressive for files that are not mmapped or mapped without that
flag.

Controlling the gfp_mask of THP allocations through the knobs in sysfs
allows users to determine the balance between how aggressively the system
tries to allocate THPs at fault time, and how much the application may end
up stalling attempting those allocations.
This way a THP defrag setting of "never" or "defer+madvise" will result in
quick allocation failures without direct reclaim when no 2MB free pages

In the current implementation of page_frag_alloc(), it doesn't have
any align guarantee for the returned buffer address. But for some
hardwares they do require the DMA buffer to be aligned correctly,
so we would have to use some workarounds like below if the buffers
allocated by the page_frag_alloc() are used by these hardwares for
DMA.
buf = page_frag_alloc(really_needed_size + align);
buf = PTR_ALIGN(buf, align);
These codes seems ugly and would waste a lot of memories if the buffers
are used in a network driver for the TX/RX. So introduce
page_frag_alloc_align() to make sure that an aligned buffer address is
returned.

There is a general understanding that GFP_ATOMIC/GFP_NOWAIT are to be used
from atomic contexts. E.g. from within a spin lock or from the IRQ
context. This is correct but there are some atomic contexts where the
above doesn't hold. One of them would be an NMI context. Page allocator
has never supported that and the general fear of this context didn't let
anybody to actually even try to use the allocator there. Good, but let's
be more specific about that.
Another such a context, and that is where people seem to be more daring,
is raw_spin_lock. Mostly because it simply resembles regular spin lock
which is supported by the allocator and there is not any implementation
difference with !RT kernels in the first place. Be explicit that such a
context is not supported by the allocator. The underlying reason is that
zone->lock would have to become raw_spin_lock as well and that has turned
out to be a problem for RT

Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
With the introduction of protected KVM guests on s390 there is now a
concept of inaccessible pages. These pages need to be made accessible
before the host can access them.
While cpu accesses will trigger a fault that can be resolved, I/O accesses
will just fail. We need to add a callback into architecture code for
places that will do I/O, namely when writeback is started or when a page
reference is taken.
This is not only to enable paging, file backing etc, it is also necessary
to protect the host against a malicious user space. For example a bad
QEMU could simply start direct I/O on such protected memory. We do not
want userspace to be able to trigger I/O errors and thus the logic is
"whenever somebody accesses that page (gup) or does I/O, make sure that
this page can be accessed". When the guest tries to access that page we
will wait in the page fault handler for writeback to have finished and for
the page_ref to be the expected value.
On s390x the function is not supposed to fail, so it is ok to use a
WARN_ON on failure. If we ever need some more finegrained handling we can
tackle this when we know the details.

sk_page_frag() optimizes skb_frag allocations by using per-task
skb_frag cache when it knows it's the only user. The condition is
determined by seeing whether the socket allocation mask allows
blocking - if the allocation may block, it obviously owns the task's
context and ergo exclusively owns current->task_frag.
Unfortunately, this misses recursion through memory reclaim path.

In [0], tcp_send_msg_locked() was using current->page_frag when it
called sk_wmem_schedule(). It already calculated how many bytes can
be fit into current->page_frag. Due to memory pressure,
sk_wmem_schedule() called into memory reclaim path which called into
xfs and then IO issue path. Because the filesystem in question is
backed by nbd, the control goes back into the tcp layer - back into
tcp_sendmsg_locked().
nbd sets sk_allocation to (GFP_NOIO | __GFP_MEMALLOC) which makes
sense - it's in the process of freeing memory and wants to be able to,
e.g., drop clean pages to make forward progress. However, this
confused sk_page_frag() called from [2]. Because it only tests
whether the allocation allows blocking which it does, it now thinks
current->page_frag can be used again although it already was being
used in [0].
After [2] used current->page_frag, the offset would be increased by
the used amount. When the control returns to [0],
current->page_frag's offset is increased and the previously calculated
number of bytes now may overrun the end of allocated memory leading to
silent memory corruptions.
Fix it by adding gfpflags_normal_context() which tests sleepable &&
!reclaim and use it to determine whether to use current->task_frag.
v2: Eric didn't like gfp flags being tested twice. Introduce a new
helper gfpflags_normal_context() and combine the two tests.
