Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka:
"This time it's mostly random cleanups and fixes, with two performance
fixes that might have significant impact, but limited to systems
experiencing particular bad corner case scenarios rather than general
performance improvements.
The memcg hook changes are going through the mm tree due to
dependencies.
- Prevent stalls when reading /proc/slabinfo (Jianfeng Wang)
This fixes the long-standing problem that can happen with workloads
that have alloc/free patterns resulting in many partially used
slabs (in e.g. dentry cache). Reading /proc/slabinfo will traverse
the long partial slab list under spinlock with disabled irqs and
thus can stall other processes or even trigger the lockup
detection. The traversal is only done to count free objects so that
<active_objs> column can be reported along with <num_objs>.
To avoid affecting fast paths with another shared counter
(attempted in the past) or complex partial list traversal schemes
that allow rescheduling, the chosen solution resorts to
approximation - when the partial list is over 10000 slabs long, we
will only traverse first 5000 slabs from head and tail each and use
the average of those to estimate the whole list. Both head and tail
are used as the slabs near head to tend to have more free objects
than the slabs towards the tail.
It is expected the approximation should not break existing
/proc/slabinfo consumers. The <num_objs> field is still accurate
and reflects the overall kmem_cache footprint. The <active_objs>
was already imprecise due to cpu and percpu-partial slabs, so can't
be relied upon to determine exact cache usage. The difference
between <active_objs> and <num_objs> is mainly useful to determine
the slab fragmentation, and that will be possible even with the
approximation in place.
- Prevent allocating many slabs when a NUMA node is full (Chen Jun)
Currently, on NUMA systems with a node under significantly bigger
pressure than other nodes, the fallback strategy may result in each
kmalloc_node() that can't be safisfied from the preferred node, to
allocate a new slab on a fallback node, and not reuse the slabs
already on that node's partial list.
This is now fixed and partial lists of fallback nodes are checked
even for kmalloc_node() allocations. It's still preferred to
allocate a new slab on the requested node before a fallback, but
only with a GFP_NOWAIT attempt, which will fail quickly when the
node is under a significant memory pressure.
- More SLAB removal related cleanups (Xiu Jianfeng, Hyunmin Lee)
- Fix slub_kunit self-test with hardened freelists (Guenter Roeck)
- Mark racy accesses for KCSAN (linke li)
- Misc cleanups (Xiongwei Song, Haifeng Xu, Sangyun Kim)"
* tag 'slab-for-6.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab:
mm/slub: remove the check for NULL kmalloc_caches
mm/slub: create kmalloc 96 and 192 caches regardless cache size order

|
In deactivate_slab(), slab->freelist can be changed concurrently. Mark
data race on slab->freelist as benign using READ_ONCE.
This patch is aimed at reducing the number of benign races reported by
KCSAN in order to focus future debugging effort on harmful races.

Commit 284f17ac13fe ("mm/slub: handle bulk and single object freeing
separately") splits single and bulk object freeing in two functions
slab_free() and slab_free_bulk() which leads slab_free() to call
slab_free_hook() directly instead of slab_free_freelist_hook().
If `init_on_free` is set, slab_free_hook() zeroes the object.
Afterward, if `slub_debug=F` and `CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED` are
set, the do_slab_free() slowpath executes freelist consistency
checks and try to decode a zeroed freepointer which leads to a
"Freepointer corrupt" detection in check_object().
During bulk free, slab_free_freelist_hook() isn't affected as it always
sets it objects freepointer using set_freepointer() to maintain its
reconstructed freelist after `init_on_free`.
For single free, object's freepointer thus needs to be avoided when
stored outside the object if `init_on_free` is set. The freepointer left
as is, check_object() may later detect an invalid pointer value due to
objects overflow.
To reproduce, set `slub_debug=FU init_on_free=1 log_level=7` on the
command line of a kernel build with `CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED=y`.

The hooks make multiple calls to functions in mm/memcontrol.c, including
to th current_obj_cgroup() marked __always_inline. It might be faster to
make a single call to the hook in mm/memcontrol.c instead. The hooks also
don't use almost anything from mm/slub.c. obj_full_size() can move with
the hooks and cache_vmstat_idx() to the internal mm/slab.h

Patch series "memcg_kmem hooks refactoring", v3.
This patch (of 2):
The MEMCG_KMEM integration with slab currently relies on two hooks during
allocation. memcg_slab_pre_alloc_hook() determines the objcg and charges
it, and memcg_slab_post_alloc_hook() assigns the objcg pointer to the
allocated object(s).
As Linus pointed out, this is unnecessarily complex. Failing to charge
due to memcg limits should be rare, so we can optimistically allocate the
object(s) and do the charging together with assigning the objcg pointer in
a single post_alloc hook. In the rare case the charging fails, we can
free the object(s) back.
This simplifies the code (no need to pass around the objcg pointer) and
potentially allows to separate charging from allocation in cases where
it's common that the allocation would be immediately freed, and the memcg
handling overhead could be saved.

If slabobj_ext vector allocation for a slab object fails and later on it
succeeds for another object in the same slab, the slabobj_ext for the
original object will be NULL and will be flagged in case when
CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG is enabled.
Mark failed slabobj_ext vector allocations using a new objext_flags flag
stored in the lower bits of slab->obj_exts. When new allocation succeeds
it marks all tag references in the same slabobj_ext vector as empty to
avoid warnings implemented by CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG checks.

objext objects are created with __GFP_NO_OBJ_EXT flag and therefore have
no corresponding objext themselves (otherwise we would get an infinite
recursion). When freeing these objects their codetag will be empty and
when CONFIG_MEM_ALLOC_PROFILING_DEBUG is enabled this will lead to false
warnings. Introduce CODETAG_EMPTY special codetag value to mark
allocations which intentionally lack codetag to avoid these warnings.
Set objext codetags to CODETAG_EMPTY before freeing to indicate that
the codetag is expected to be empty.

Slab extension objects can't be allocated before slab infrastructure is
initialized. Some caches, like kmem_cache and kmem_cache_node, are
created before slab infrastructure is initialized. Objects from these
caches can't have extension objects. Introduce SLAB_NO_OBJ_EXT slab flag
to mark these caches and avoid creating extensions for objects allocated
from these slabs.

slab_out_of_memory() uses count_partial() to get the exact count
of free objects for each node. As it may get called in the slab
allocation path, count_partial_free_approx() can be used to avoid
the risk and overhead of traversing a long partial slab list.
At the same time, show_slab_objects() still uses count_partial().
Thus, slub users can still have the option to access the exact
count of objects via sysfs if the overhead is acceptable to them.

When reading "/proc/slabinfo", the kernel needs to report the number
of free objects for each kmem_cache. The current implementation uses
count_partial() to get it by scanning each kmem_cache_node's partial
slab list and summing free objects from every partial slab. This
process must hold per-kmem_cache_node spinlock and disable IRQ, and
may take a long time. Consequently, it can block slab allocations on
other CPUs and cause timeouts for network devices, when the partial
list is long. In production, even NMI watchdog can be triggered due
to this matter: e.g., for "buffer_head", the number of partial slabs
was observed to be ~1M in one kmem_cache_node. This problem was also
confirmed by others [1-3].
Iterating a partial list to get the exact count of objects can cause
soft lockups for a long list with or without the lock (e.g., if
preemption is disabled), and may not be very useful: the object count
can change after the lock is released. The approach of maintaining
free-object counters requires atomic operations on the fast path [3].
So, the fix is to introduce count_partial_free_approx(). This function
can be used for getting the free object count in a kmem_cache_node's
partial list. It limits the number of slabs to scan and avoids scanning
the whole list by giving an approximation for a long list. Suppose the
limit is N. If the list's length is not greater than N, output the exact
count by traversing the list; if its length is greater than N, output an
approximated count by traversing a subset of the list. The proposed
method is to scan N/2 slabs from the list's head and N/2 slabs from
the tail. For a partial list with ~280K slabs, benchmarks show that
it performs better than just counting from the list's head, after slabs
get sorted by kmem_cache_shrink(). Default the limit to 10000, as it
produces an approximation within 1% of the exact count for both
scenarios. Then, use count_partial_free_approx() in get_slabinfo().
Benchmarks: Diff = (exact - approximated) / exact
* Normal case (w/o kmem_cache_shrink()):
| MAX_TO_SCAN | Diff (count from head)| Diff (count head+tail)|
| 1000 | 0.43 % | 1.09 % |

The break conditions for filling cpu partial can be more readable and
simple.
If slub_get_cpu_partial() returns 0, we can confirm that we don't need
to fill cpu partial, then we should break from the loop. On the other
hand, we also should break from the loop if we have added enough cpu
partial slabs.
Meanwhile, the logic above gets rid of the #ifdef and also fixes a weird
corner case that if we set cpu_partial_slabs to 0 from sysfs, we still
allocate at least one here.

When kmalloc_node() is called without __GFP_THISNODE and the target node
lacks sufficient memory, SLUB allocates a folio from a different node
other than the requested node, instead of taking a partial slab from it.
However, since the allocated folio does not belong to the requested
node, on the following allocation it is deactivated and added to the
partial slab list of the node it belongs to.
This behavior can result in excessive memory usage when the requested
node has insufficient memory, as SLUB will repeatedly allocate folios
from other nodes without reusing the previously allocated ones.
To prevent memory wastage, when a preferred node is indicated (not
NUMA_NO_NODE) but without a prior __GFP_THISNODE constraint:
1) try to get a partial slab from target node only by having
__GFP_THISNODE in pc.flags for get_partial()
2) if 1) failed, try to allocate a new slab from target node with
GFP_NOWAIT | __GFP_THISNODE opportunistically.
3) if 2) failed, retry with original gfpflags which will allow
get_partial() try partial lists of other nodes before potentially
allocating new page from other nodes
Without a preferred node, or with __GFP_THISNODE constraint, the
behavior remains unchanged.
On qemu with 4 numa nodes and each numa has 1G memory. Write a test ko
to call kmalloc_node(196, GFP_KERNEL, 3) for (4 * 1024 + 4) * 1024 times.

The reads of slab->slabs are racy because it may be changed by
put_cpu_partial concurrently. In slabs_cpu_partial_show() and
show_slab_objects(), slab->slabs is only used for showing information.
Data-racy reads from shared variables that are used only for diagnostic
purposes should typically use data_race(), since it is normally not a
problem if the values are off by a little.
This patch is aimed at reducing the number of benign races reported by
KCSAN in order to focus future debugging effort on harmful races.

The values of SLAB_ cache creation flags are defined by hand, which is
tedious and error-prone. Use an enum to assign the bit number and a
__SLAB_FLAG_BIT() macro to #define the final flags.
This renumbers the flag values, which is OK as they are only used
internally.
Also define a __SLAB_FLAG_UNUSED macro to assign value to flags disabled
by their respective config options in a unified and sparse-friendly way.

The likely case is that we get a usable slab from the cpu partial list,
we can directly load freelist from it and return back, instead of going
the other way that need more work, like reenable interrupt and recheck.
But we need to remove the "VM_BUG_ON(!new.frozen)" in get_freelist()
for reusing it, since cpu partial slab is not frozen. It seems
acceptable since it's only for debug purpose.
And get_freelist() also assumes it can return NULL if the freelist is
empty, which is not possible for the cpu partial slab case, so we
add "VM_BUG_ON(!freelist)" after get_freelist() to make it explicit.
There is some small performance improvement too, which shows by:

Since the SLAB allocator has been removed, so we can clean up the
sl[au]b_$params. With only one slab allocator left, it's better to use the
generic "slab" term instead of "slub" which is an implementation detail,
which is pointed out by Vlastimil Babka. For more information please see
[1]. Hence, we are going to use "slab_$param" as the primary prefix.
This patch is changing the following slab parameters
- slub_max_order
- slub_min_order
- slub_min_objects
- slub_debug
to
- slab_max_order
- slab_min_order
- slab_min_objects
- slab_debug
as the primary slab parameters for all references of them in docs and
comments. But this patch won't change variables and functions inside
slub as we will have wider slub/slab change.
Meanwhile, "slub_$params" can also be passed by command line, which is
to keep backward compatibility. Also mark all "slub_$params" as legacy.
Remove the separate descriptions for slub_[no]merge, append legacy tip
for them at the end of descriptions of slab_[no]merge.

commit 23baf831a32c ("mm, treewide: redefine MAX_ORDER sanely") has
changed the definition of MAX_ORDER to be inclusive. This has caused
issues with code that was not yet upstream and depended on the previous
definition.
To draw attention to the altered meaning of the define, rename MAX_ORDER
to MAX_PAGE_ORDER.

Merge the SLAB allocator removal and a number of subsequent SLUB
cleanups and optimizations.

Rename kasan_unpoison_object_data to kasan_unpoison_new_object and add a
documentation comment. Do the same for kasan_poison_object_data.
The new names and the comments should suggest the users that these hooks
are intended for internal use by the slab allocator.
The following patch will remove non-slab-internal uses of these hooks.
No functional changes.

When freeing an object that was allocated from KFENCE, we do that in the
slowpath __slab_free(), relying on the fact that KFENCE "slab" cannot be
the cpu slab, so the fastpath has to fallback to the slowpath.
This optimization doesn't help much though, because is_kfence_address()
is checked earlier anyway during the free hook processing or detached
freelist building. Thus we can simplify the code by making the
slab_free_hook() free the KFENCE object immediately, similarly to KASAN
quarantine.
In slab_free_hook() we can place kfence_free() above init processing, as
callers have been making sure to set init to false for KFENCE objects.
This simplifies slab_free(). This places it also above kasan_slab_free()
which is ok as that skips KFENCE objects anyway.
While at it also determine the init value in slab_free_freelist_hook()
outside of the loop.
This change will also make introducing per cpu array caches easier.

When both KASAN and slub_debug are enabled, when a free object is being
prepared in setup_object, slub_debug poisons the object data before KASAN
initializes its per-object metadata.
Right now, in setup_object, KASAN only initializes the alloc metadata,
which is always stored outside of the object. slub_debug is aware of this
and it skips poisoning and checking that memory area.
However, with the following patch in this series, KASAN also starts
initializing its free medata in setup_object. As this metadata might be
stored within the object, this initialization might overwrite the
slub_debug poisoning. This leads to slub_debug reports.
Thus, skip checking slub_debug poisoning of the object data area that
overlaps with the in-object KASAN free metadata.
Also make slub_debug poisoning of tail kmalloc redzones more precise when
KASAN is enabled: slub_debug can still poison and check the tail kmalloc
allocation area that comes after the KASAN free metadata.

Currently we have a single function slab_free() handling both single
object freeing and bulk freeing with necessary hooks, the latter case
requiring slab_free_freelist_hook(). It should be however better to
distinguish the two use cases for the following reasons:
- code simpler to follow for the single object case
- better code generation - although inlining should eliminate the
slab_free_freelist_hook() for single object freeing in case no
debugging options are enabled, it seems it's not perfect. When e.g.
KASAN is enabled, we're imposing additional unnecessary overhead for
single object freeing.
- preparation to add percpu array caches in near future
Therefore, simplify slab_free() for the single object case by dropping
unnecessary parameters and calling only slab_free_hook() instead of
slab_free_freelist_hook(). Rename the bulk variant to slab_free_bulk()
and adjust callers accordingly.
While at it, flip (and document) slab_free_hook() return value so that
it returns true when the freeing can proceed, which matches the logic of
slab_free_freelist_hook() and is not confusingly the opposite.
Additionally we can simplify a bit by changing the tail parameter of
do_slab_free() when freeing a single object - instead of NULL we can set
it equal to head.

etc disabled:

Currently, when __kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() fails, it frees back the
objects that were allocated before the failure, using
kmem_cache_free_bulk(). Because kmem_cache_free_bulk() calls the free
hooks (KASAN etc.) and those expect objects that were processed by the
post alloc hooks, slab_post_alloc_hook() is called before
kmem_cache_free_bulk().
This is wasteful, although not a big concern in practice for the rare
error path. But in order to efficiently handle percpu array batch refill
and free in the near future, we will also need a variant of
kmem_cache_free_bulk() that avoids the free hooks. So introduce it now
and use it for the failure path.
In case of failure we however still need to perform memcg uncharge so
handle that in a new memcg_slab_alloc_error_hook(). Thanks to Chengming
Zhou for noticing the missing uncharge.
As a consequence, __kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() no longer needs the objcg
parameter, remove it.

The SLUB sysfs stats enabled CONFIG_SLUB_STATS have two deficiencies
identified wrt bulk alloc/free operations:
- Bulk allocations from cpu freelist are not counted. Add the
ALLOC_FASTPATH counter there.
- Bulk fastpath freeing will count a list of multiple objects with a
single FREE_FASTPATH inc. Add a stat_add() variant to count them all.
