Subject: [PATCH] [13/16] HWPOISON: The high level memory error handler in the VM v3


This patch adds the high level memory handler that poisons pages
that got corrupted by hardware (typically by a bit flip in a DIMM
or a cache) on the Linux level. Linux tries to access these
pages in the future then.

It is portable code and lives in mm/memory-failure.c

To quote the overview comment:

 * High level machine check handler. Handles pages reported by the
 * hardware as being corrupted usually due to a 2bit ECC memory or cache
 * failure.
 *
 * This focusses on pages detected as corrupted in the background.
 * When the current CPU tries to consume corruption the currently
 * running process can just be killed directly instead. This implies
 * that if the error cannot be handled for some reason it's safe to
 * just ignore it because no corruption has been consumed yet. Instead
 * when that happens another machine check will happen.
 *
 * Handles page cache pages in various states. The tricky part
 * here is that we can access any page asynchronous to other VM
 * users, because memory failures could happen anytime and anywhere,
 * possibly violating some of their assumptions. This is why this code
 * has to be extremely careful. Generally it tries to use normal locking
 * rules, as in get the standard locks, even if that means the
 * error handling takes potentially a long time.
 *
 * Some of the operations here are somewhat inefficient and have non
 * linear algorithmic complexity, because the data structures have not
 * been optimized for this case. This is in particular the case
 * for the mapping from a vma to a process. Since this case is expected
 * to be rare we hope we can get away with this.

There are in principle two strategies to kill processes on poison:
- just unmap the data and wait for an actual reference before 
killing
- kill as soon as corruption is detected.
Both have advantages and disadvantages and should be used 
in different situations. Right now both are implemented and can
be switched with a new sysctl vm.memory_failure_early_kill
The default is early kill.

The patch does some rmap data structure walking on its own to collect
processes to kill. This is unusual because normally all rmap data structure
knowledge is in rmap.c only. I put it here for now to keep 
everything together and rmap knowledge has been seeping out anyways

v2: Fix anon vma unlock crash (noticed by Johannes Weiner <hannes@...xchg.org>)
Handle pages on free list correctly (also noticed by Johannes)
Fix inverted try_to_release_page check (found by Chris Mason)
Add documentation for the new sysctl.
Various other cleanups/comment fixes.
v3: Use blockable signal for AO SIGBUS for better qemu handling.
Numerous fixes from Fengguang Wu: 
New code layout for the table (redone by AK)
Move the hwpoison bit setting before the lock (Fengguang Wu)
Some code cleanups (Fengguang Wu, AK)
Add missing lru_drain (Fengguang Wu)
Do more checks for valid mappings (inspired by patch from Fengguang)
Handle free pages and fixes for clean pages (Fengguang)
Removed swap cache handling for now, needs more work
Better mapping checks to avoid races (Fengguang)
Fix swapcache (Fengguang)
Handle private2 pages too (Fengguang)

+memory_failure_early_kill:
+
+Control how to kill processes when uncorrected memory error (typically
+a 2bit error in a memory module) is detected in the background by hardware.
+
+1: Kill all processes that have the corrupted page mapped as soon as the
+corruption is detected.
+
+0: Only unmap the page from all processes and only kill a process
+who tries to access it.
+
+The kill is done using a catchable SIGBUS, so processes can handle this
+if they want to.
+
+This is only active on architectures/platforms with advanced machine
+check handling and depends on the hardware capabilities.
