From d8c712ea471ce7a4fd1734ad2211adf8469ddddc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Greg Thelen Date: Thu, 31 Jul 2014 09:07:19 -0700 Subject: dm bufio: fully initialize shrinker 1d3d4437eae1 ("vmscan: per-node deferred work") added a flags field to struct shrinker assuming that all shrinkers were zero filled. The dm bufio shrinker is not zero filled, which leaves arbitrary kmalloc() data in flags. So far the only defined flags bit is SHRINKER_NUMA_AWARE. But there are proposed patches which add other bits to shrinker.flags (e.g. memcg awareness). Rather than simply initializing the shrinker, this patch uses kzalloc() when allocating the dm_bufio_client to ensure that the embedded shrinker and any other similar structures are zeroed. This fixes theoretical over aggressive shrinking of dm bufio objects. If the uninitialized dm_bufio_client.shrinker.flags contains SHRINKER_NUMA_AWARE then shrink_slab() would call the dm shrinker for each numa node rather than just once. This has been broken since 3.12.

This was due to a race between the workqueue and map function accessing nr_dirty in parallel without proper protection. People were seeing under runs due to a race on increment/decrement of nr_dirty, see: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/6/3/648 Fix this by using an atomic_t for nr_dirty.
