An application running with libhugetlbfs fails to allocate
additional pages to HEAP due to the hugemap being done
inconditionally as topdown mapping:

mmap(0x10080000, 1572864, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS|0x40000, -1, 0) = 0x73e80000
[...]
mmap(0x74000000, 1048576, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS|0x40000, -1, 0x180000) = 0x73d80000
munmap(0x73d80000, 1048576)             = 0
[...]
mmap(0x74000000, 1572864, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS|0x40000, -1, 0x180000) = 0x73d00000
munmap(0x73d00000, 1572864)             = 0
[...]
mmap(0x74000000, 1572864, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS|0x40000, -1, 0x180000) = 0x73d00000
munmap(0x73d00000, 1572864)             = 0
[...]

As one can see from the above strace log, mmap() allocates further
pages below the initial one.

This patch fixes it by taking into account MAP_GROWSDOWN flag.

Can you explain the failure details above. I am not sure I understand
what to read from the above output.

Rest of the kernel don't depend on that flag to select a topdown search
or not. So what is special with hugetlb? IF we select legacy mmap that
is when we select a bottomup search. Hugetlb on ppc64 always did a
topdown search.

libhugetlbfs first requests an area of size 1.5Mbytes, at address 0x10080000
mmap() returns an area at address 0x73e80000

Then libhugetlbfs requests an additional area on top of that, ie at 
address 0x74000000, to expand the heap.
But mmap() returns an area at address 0x73d80000, ie under the previous 
area.

This is not the behaviour when using the generic (ie without mm_slices) 
hugepages code, and this is not what libhugetlbfs expects for expending 
the heap.

The generic hugepage code does a bottomup search. First page is 
allocated at address 0x30000000 and following pages are allocated at 
requested addresses when requested, then libhugetlbfs has no issue 
expanding the heap when required.

Can you share the test details?. Why does it not fail on book3s64? We 
use topdown search with book3s64.

I don't know about book3s64, I only have 8xx.

Here is my test app:


#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <fcntl.h>

int main()
{
	char *p;
	char buf[16384];
	char filename[32];
	int fd, r;
	
	sprintf(filename, "/proc/%d/maps", getpid());

	fd = open(filename, O_RDONLY);
	r = read(fd, buf, sizeof(buf));
	close(fd);
	buf[r] = 0;
	fputs(buf, stderr);
	fputc('\n', stderr);
	
	p = malloc(1024*1024);
	fprintf(stderr, "\nAllocated 1Mbytes at %p\n\n", p);

	p = malloc(1024*1024);
	fprintf(stderr, "\nAllocated 1Mbytes at %p\n\n", p);

	p = malloc(1024*1024);
	fprintf(stderr, "\nAllocated 1Mbytes at %p\n\n", p);

	fd = open(filename, O_RDONLY);
	r = read(fd, buf, sizeof(buf));
	close(fd);
	buf[r] = 0;
	fputs(buf, stderr);
	fputc('\n', stderr);

	exit(0);
}

It is linked with -lhugetlbfs (version 2.20)
My 8xx board is configured with 64 huge pages, default size 512k:

Without the patch, my test app gives the following results: as you can 
see, second and third malloc returns address which is not in a hugepage. 
strace shows that libhugetlbfs fallsback on regular mmap because 
hugepage has not been allocated at the requested address.

I think I identified the difference. In my run you have the following 
warning:

libhugetlbfs: WARNING: Heap originates at 0x73e80000 instead of 0x10080000

In your run, there is no such warning.

I tried running the test with HUGETLB_MORECORE_HEAPBASE=0x30000000, and 
it works without the patch:

On your side, could you try and see with 
HUGETLB_MORECORE_HEAPBASE=0x11000000 ?
