[PATCH 0/3] MAP_NORESERVE for hugetlb mappings V1

[PATCH 0/3] MAP_NORESERVE for hugetlb mappings V1

[Andy Whitcroft]

With Mel's hugetlb private reservation support patches applied, strict
overcommit semantics are applied to both shared and private huge
page mappings.  This can be a problem if an application relied on
unlimited overcommit semantics for private mappings.  An example of this
would be an application which maps a huge area with the intention of
using it very sparsely.  These application would benefit from being able
to opt-out of the strict overcommit.  It should be noted that prior to
hugetlb supporting demand faulting all mappings were fully populated and
so applications of this type should be rare.

This patch stack implements the MAP_NORESERVE mmap() flag for huge page
mappings.  This flag has the same meaning as for small page mappings,
suppressing reservations for that mapping.

The stack is made up of three patches:

record-MAP_NORESERVE-status-on-vmas-and-fix-small-page-mprotect-reservations --
  currently when we mprotect a private MAP_NORESERVE mapping read-write
  we have no choice but to create a reservation for it.  Fix that by
  introducing a VM_NORESERVE vma flag and checking it before allocating
  reserve.

hugetlb-move-reservation-region-support-earlier -- simply moves the
  reservation region support so it can be used earlier.

hugetlb-allow-huge-page-mappings-to-be-created-without-reservations --
  use the new VM_NORESERVE flag to control the application of hugetlb
  reservations to new mappings.

All against 2.6.25-mm1 with Mel's private reservation patches:

	Subject: Guarantee faults for processes that call mmap(MAP_PRIVATE)
	  on hugetlbfs v2

Thanks to Mel Gorman for reviewing a number of early versions of these
patches.

[PATCH 1/3] record MAP_NORESERVE status on vmas and fix small page mprotect reservations

[Andy Whitcroft]

When a small page mapping is created with mmap() reservations are created
by default for any memory pages required.  When the region is read/write
the reservation is increased for every page, no reservation is needed for
read-only regions (as they implicitly share the zero page).  Reservations
are tracked via the VM_ACCOUNT vma flag which is present when the region
has reservation backing it.  When we convert a region from read-only to
read-write new reservations are aquired and VM_ACCOUNT is set.  However,
when a read-only map is created with MAP_NORESERVE it is indistinguishable
from a normal mapping.  When we then convert that to read/write we are
forced to incorrectly create reservations for it as we have no record of
the original MAP_NORESERVE.

This patch introduces a new vma flag VM_NORESERVE which records the
presence of the original MAP_NORESERVE flag.  This allows us to distinguish
these two circumstances and correctly account the reserve.

As well as fixing this FIXME in the code, this makes it much easier to
introduce MAP_NORESERVE support for huge pages as this flag is available
consistantly for the life of the mapping.  VM_ACCOUNT on the other hand
is heavily used at the generic level in association with small pages.

[PATCH 3/3] hugetlb-allow-huge-page-mappings-to-be-created-without-reservations

[Andy Whitcroft]

By default all shared mappings and most private mappings now
have reservations associated with them.  This improves semantics by
providing allocation guarentees to the mapper.  However a small number of
applications may attempt to make very large sparse mappings, with these
strict reservations the system will never be able to honour the mapping.

This patch set brings MAP_NORESERVE support to hugetlb files.
This allows new mappings to be made to hugetlbfs files without an
associated reservation, for both shared and private mappings.  This allows
applications which want to create very sparse mappings to opt-out of the
reservation system.  Obviously as there is no reservation they are liable
to fault at runtime if the huge page pool becomes exhausted; buyer beware.
