mm: migration: take a reference to the anon_vma before migrating
This patchset is a memory compaction mechanism that reduces external
fragmentation memory by moving GFP_MOVABLE pages to a fewer number of
pageblocks. The term "compaction" was chosen as there are is a number of
mechanisms that are not mutually exclusive that can be used to defragment
memory. For example, lumpy reclaim is a form of defragmentation as was
slub "defragmentation" (really a form of targeted reclaim). Hence, this
is called "compaction" to distinguish it from other forms of
defragmentation.
In this implementation, a full compaction run involves two scanners
operating within a zone - a migration and a free scanner. The migration
scanner starts at the beginning of a zone and finds all movable pages
within one pageblock_nr_pages-sized area and isolates them on a
migratepages list. The free scanner begins at the end of the zone and
searches on a per-area basis for enough free pages to migrate all the
pages on the migratepages list. As each area is respectively migrated or
exhausted of free pages, the scanners are advanced one area. A compaction
run completes within a zone when the two scanners meet.
This method is a bit primitive but is easy to understand and greater
sophistication would require maintenance of counters on a per-pageblock
basis. This would have a big impact on allocator fast-paths to improve
compaction which is a poor trade-off.
It also does not try relocate virtually contiguous pages to be physically
contiguous. However, assuming transparent hugepages were in use, a
hypothetical khugepaged might reuse compaction code to isolate free pages,
split them and relocate userspace pages for promotion.
Memory compaction can be triggered in one of three ways. It may be
triggered explicitly by writing any value to /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory
and compacting all of memory. It can be triggered on a per-node basis by
writing any value to /sys/devices/system/node/nodeN/compact where N is the
node ID to be compacted. When a process fails to allocate a high-order
page, it may compact memory in an attempt to satisfy the allocation
instead of entering direct reclaim. Explicit compaction does not finish
until the two scanners meet and direct compaction ends if a suitable page
becomes available that would meet watermarks.
The series is in 14 patches. The first three are not "core" to the series
but are important pre-requisites.
Patch 1 reference counts anon_vma for rmap_walk_anon(). Without this
patch, it's possible to use anon_vma after free if the caller is
not holding a VMA or mmap_sem for the pages in question. While
there should be no existing user that causes this problem,
it's a requirement for memory compaction to be stable. The patch
is at the start of the series for bisection reasons.
Patch 2 merges the KSM and migrate counts. It could be merged with patch 1
but would be slightly harder to review.
Patch 3 skips over unmapped anon pages during migration as there are no
guarantees about the anon_vma existing. There is a window between
when a page was isolated and migration started during which anon_vma
could disappear.
Patch 4 notes that PageSwapCache pages can still be migrated even if they
are unmapped.
Patch 5 allows CONFIG_MIGRATION to be set without CONFIG_NUMA
Patch 6 exports a "unusable free space index" via debugfs. It's
a measure of external fragmentation that takes the size of the
allocation request into account. It can also be calculated from
userspace so can be dropped if requested
Patch 7 exports a "fragmentation index" which only has meaning when an
allocation request fails. It determines if an allocation failure
would be due to a lack of memory or external fragmentation.
Patch 8 moves the definition for LRU isolation modes for use by compaction
Patch 9 is the compaction mechanism although it's unreachable at this point
Patch 10 adds a means of compacting all of memory with a proc trgger
Patch 11 adds a means of compacting a specific node with a sysfs trigger
Patch 12 adds "direct compaction" before "direct reclaim" if it is
determined there is a good chance of success.
Patch 13 adds a sysctl that allows tuning of the threshold at which the
kernel will compact or direct reclaim
Patch 14 temporarily disables compaction if an allocation failure occurs
after compaction.
Testing of compaction was in three stages. For the test, debugging,
preempt, the sleep watchdog and lockdep were all enabled but nothing nasty
popped out. min_free_kbytes was tuned as recommended by hugeadm to help
fragmentation avoidance and high-order allocations. It was tested on X86,
X86-64 and PPC64.
Ths first test represents one of the easiest cases that can be faced for
lumpy reclaim or memory compaction.
1. Machine freshly booted and configured for hugepage usage with
a) hugeadm --create-global-mounts
b) hugeadm --pool-pages-max DEFAULT:8G
c) hugeadm --set-recommended-min_free_kbytes
d) hugeadm --set-recommended-shmmax
The min_free_kbytes here is important. Anti-fragmentation works best
when pageblocks don't mix. hugeadm knows how to calculate a value that
will significantly reduce the worst of external-fragmentation-related
events as reported by the mm_page_alloc_extfrag tracepoint.
2. Load up memory
a) Start updatedb
b) Create in parallel a X files of pagesize*128 in size. Wait
until files are created. By parallel, I mean that 4096 instances
of dd were launched, one after the other using &. The crude
objective being to mix filesystem metadata allocations with
the buffer cache.
c) Delete every second file so that pageblocks are likely to
have holes
d) kill updatedb if it's still running
At this point, the system is quiet, memory is full but it's full with
clean filesystem metadata and clean buffer cache that is unmapped.
This is readily migrated or discarded so you'd expect lumpy reclaim
to have no significant advantage over compaction but this is at
the POC stage.
3. In increments, attempt to allocate 5% of memory as hugepages.
Measure how long it took, how successful it was, how many
direct reclaims took place and how how many compactions. Note
the compaction figures might not fully add up as compactions
can take place for orders other than the hugepage size
X86 vanilla compaction
Final page count 913 916 (attempted 1002)
pages reclaimed 68296 9791
X86-64 vanilla compaction
Final page count: 901 902 (attempted 1002)
Total pages reclaimed: 112599 53234
PPC64 vanilla compaction
Final page count: 93 94 (attempted 110)
Total pages reclaimed: 103216 61838
There was not a dramatic improvement in success rates but it wouldn't be
expected in this case either. What was important is that fewer pages were
reclaimed in all cases reducing the amount of IO required to satisfy a
huge page allocation.
The second tests were all performance related - kernbench, netperf, iozone
and sysbench. None showed anything too remarkable.
The last test was a high-order allocation stress test. Many kernel
compiles are started to fill memory with a pressured mix of unmovable and
movable allocations. During this, an attempt is made to allocate 90% of
memory as huge pages - one at a time with small delays between attempts to
avoid flooding the IO queue.
vanilla compaction
Percentage of request allocated X86 98 99
Percentage of request allocated X86-64 95 98
Percentage of request allocated PPC64 55 70
This patch:
rmap_walk_anon() does not use page_lock_anon_vma() for looking up and
locking an anon_vma and it does not appear to have sufficient locking to
ensure the anon_vma does not disappear from under it.
This patch copies an approach used by KSM to take a reference on the
anon_vma while pages are being migrated. This should prevent rmap_walk()
running into nasty surprises later because anon_vma has been freed.

mm: default to node zonelist ordering when nodes have only lowmem
There are two types of zonelist ordering methodologies:
- node order, preferring allocations on a node to stay local to and
- zone order, preferring allocations come from a higher zone to avoid
allocating in lowmem zones even though they may not be local.
The ordering technique used by the kernel is configurable on the command
line, but also has some logic to determine what the default should be.
This logic currently lacks knowledge of systems where a node may only have
lowmem. For such systems, it is necessary to use node order so that
GFP_KERNEL allocations may be satisfied by nodes consisting of only
lowmem.
If zone order is used, GFP_KERNEL allocations to such nodes are actually
allocated on a node with local affinity that includes ZONE_NORMAL.
This change defaults to node zonelist ordering if any node lacks
ZONE_NORMAL.
To force zone order, append 'numa_zonelist_order=zone' to the kernel
command line.

cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when changing cpuset's mems
Before applying this patch, cpuset updates task->mems_allowed and
mempolicy by setting all new bits in the nodemask first, and clearing all
old unallowed bits later. But in the way, the allocator may find that
there is no node to alloc memory.
The reason is that cpuset rebinds the task's mempolicy, it cleans the
nodes which the allocater can alloc pages on, for example:
(mpol: mempolicy)
task1 task1's mpol task2
alloc page 1
alloc on node0? NO 1
1 change mems from 1 to 0
1 rebind task1's mpol
0-1 set new bits
0 clear disallowed bits
alloc on node1? NO 0
...
can't alloc page
goto oom
This patch fixes this problem by expanding the nodes range first(set newly
allowed bits) and shrink it lazily(clear newly disallowed bits). So we
use a variable to tell the write-side task that read-side task is reading
nodemask, and the write-side task clears newly disallowed nodes after
read-side task ends the current memory allocation.

mempolicy: restructure rebinding-mempolicy functions
Nick Piggin reported that the allocator may see an empty nodemask when
changing cpuset's mems[1]. It happens only on the kernel that do not do
atomic nodemask_t stores. (MAX_NUMNODES > BITS_PER_LONG)
But I found that there is also a problem on the kernel that can do atomic
nodemask_t stores. The problem is that the allocator can't find a node to
alloc page when changing cpuset's mems though there is a lot of free
memory. The reason is like this:
(mpol: mempolicy)
task1 task1's mpol task2
alloc page 1
alloc on node0? NO 1
1 change mems from 1 to 0
1 rebind task1's mpol
0-1 set new bits
0 clear disallowed bits
alloc on node1? NO 0
...
can't alloc page
goto oom
I can use the attached program reproduce it by the following step:
# mkdir /dev/cpuset
# mount -t cpuset cpuset /dev/cpuset
# mkdir /dev/cpuset/1
# echo `cat /dev/cpuset/cpus` > /dev/cpuset/1/cpus
# echo `cat /dev/cpuset/mems` > /dev/cpuset/1/mems
# echo $$ > /dev/cpuset/1/tasks
# numactl --membind=`cat /dev/cpuset/mems` ./cpuset_mem_hog <nr_tasks> &
<nr_tasks> = max(nr_cpus - 1, 1)
# killall -s SIGUSR1 cpuset_mem_hog
# ./change_mems.sh
several hours later, oom will happen though there is a lot of free memory.
This patchset fixes this problem by expanding the nodes range first(set
newly allowed bits) and shrink it lazily(clear newly disallowed bits). So
we use a variable to tell the write-side task that read-side task is
reading nodemask, and the write-side task clears newly disallowed nodes
after read-side task ends the current memory allocation.
This patch:
In order to fix no node to alloc memory, when we want to update mempolicy
and mems_allowed, we expand the set of nodes first (set all the newly
nodes) and shrink the set of nodes lazily(clean disallowed nodes), But the
mempolicy's rebind functions may breaks the expanding.
So we restructure the mempolicy's rebind functions and split the rebind
work to two steps, just like the update of cpuset's mems: The 1st step:
expand the set of the mempolicy's nodes. The 2nd step: shrink the set of
the mempolicy's nodes. It is used when there is no real lock to protect
the mempolicy in the read-side. Otherwise we can do rebind work at once.
In order to implement it, we define
enum mpol_rebind_step {
MPOL_REBIND_ONCE,
MPOL_REBIND_STEP1,
MPOL_REBIND_STEP2,
MPOL_REBIND_NSTEP,
};
If the mempolicy needn't be updated by two steps, we can pass
MPOL_REBIND_ONCE to the rebind functions. Or we can pass
MPOL_REBIND_STEP1 to do the first step of the rebind work and pass
MPOL_REBIND_STEP2 to do the second step work.
Besides that, it maybe long time between these two step and we have to
release the lock that protects mempolicy and mems_allowed. If we hold the
lock once again, we must check whether the current mempolicy is under the
rebinding (the first step has been done) or not, because the task may
alloc a new mempolicy when we don't hold the lock. So we defined the
following flag to identify it:
#define MPOL_F_REBINDING (1 << 2)
The new functions will be used in the next patch.

page allocator: reduce fragmentation in buddy allocator by adding buddies that are merging to the tail of the free lists
In order to reduce fragmentation, this patch classifies freed pages in two
groups according to their probability of being part of a high order merge.
Pages belonging to a compound whose next-highest buddy is free are more
likely to be part of a high order merge in the near future, so they will
be added at the tail of the freelist. The remaining pages are put at the
front of the freelist.
In this way, the pages that are more likely to cause a big merge are kept
free longer. Consequently there is a tendency to aggregate the
long-living allocations on a subset of the compounds, reducing the
fragmentation.
This heuristic was tested on three machines, x86, x86-64 and ppc64 with
3GB of RAM in each machine. The tests were kernbench, netperf, sysbench
and STREAM for performance and a high-order stress test for huge page
allocations.

There was a distinct lack of confidence in the X86* figures so I included
what the devation was where the results were not confident. Many of the
results, whether gains or losses were within the standard deviation so no
solid conclusion can be reached on performance impact. Looking at the
figures, only the X86-64 ones look suspicious with a few losses that were
outside the noise. However, the results were so unstable that without
knowing why they vary so much, a solid conclusion cannot be reached.

Again, there is little to conclude here. While there are a few losses,
the results vary by +/- 8% in some cases. They are the results of most
concern as there are some large losses but it's also within the variance
typically seen between kernel releases.
The STREAM results varied so little and are so verbose that I didn't
include them here.
The final test stressed how many huge pages can be allocated. The
absolute number of huge pages allocated are the same with or without the
page. However, the "unusability free space index" which is a measure of
external fragmentation was slightly lower (lower is better) throughout the
lifetime of the system. I also measured the latency of how long it took
to successfully allocate a huge page. The latency was slightly lower and
on X86 and PPC64, more huge pages were allocated almost immediately from
the free lists. The improvement is slight but there.

tmpfs: insert tmpfs cache pages to inactive list at first
Shaohua Li reported parallel file copy on tmpfs can lead to OOM killer.
This is regression of caused by commit
9ff473b9a7 ("vmscan: evict
streaming IO first"). Wow, It is 2 years old patch!
Currently, tmpfs file cache is inserted active list at first. This means
that the insertion doesn't only increase numbers of pages in anon LRU, but
it also reduces anon scanning ratio. Therefore, vmscan will get totally
confused. It scans almost only file LRU even though the system has plenty
unused tmpfs pages.
Historically, lru_cache_add_active_anon() was used for two reasons.
1) Intend to priotize shmem page rather than regular file cache.
2) Intend to avoid reclaim priority inversion of used once pages.
But we've lost both motivation because (1) Now we have separate anon and
file LRU list. then, to insert active list doesn't help such priotize.
(2) In past, one pte access bit will cause page activation. then to
insert inactive list with pte access bit mean higher priority than to
insert active list. Its priority inversion may lead to uninteded lru
chun. but it was already solved by commit
645747462 (vmscan: detect
mapped file pages used only once). (Thanks Hannes, you are great!)
Thus, now we can use lru_cache_add_anon() instead.

03ceedea972a82d343fa5c2528b3952fa9e615d5, since it
breaks resume from suspend-to-ram on Rafael's Acer Ferrari One.
NetworkManager thinks everything is ok, but it can't connect to the AP
to get an IP address after the resume.
In fact, it even breaks resume for non-ath9k chipsets: reverting it also
fixes Rafael's Toshiba Protege R500 with the iwlagn driver. As Johannes
says:
"Indeed, this patch needs to be reverted. That mac80211 change is wrong

timekeeping: Fix timezone update
commit
64ce4c2f (time: Clean up warp_clock()) breaks the timezone
update in a very subtle way. To avoid the direct access to timekeeping
internals it adds the timezone delta to the current time with
timespec_add_safe(). This works nicely when the timezone delta is > 0.
If timezone delta is < 0 then the wrap check in timespec_add_safe()
triggers and timespec_add_safe() returns TIME_MAX and screws up
timekeeping completely.
The comment above timespec_add_safe() says:
It's assumed that both values are valid (>= 0)
Add the timezone seconds adjustment directly.

Blackfin: optimize strncpy a bit
Add a little strncpy optimization which can easily cut boot time by 20%.
When the kernel is booting with initramfs, it builds up the filesystem
from a cpio archive by calling strncpy_from_user() via fs/namei.c's
do_getname() on every file in the archive (which can be lots) with a
length of PATH_MAX (1024). This causes the dest of the strncpy to be
padded with many NUL bytes.
This optimization mostly causes these NUL bytes to be padded with a call
to memset() which is already optimized for filling memory quickly, but
the hardware loop helps a little bit as well.
Boot time measured with 'loglevel=0' so UART speed doesn't get in the way.

exception handler take care of emulating these. This allows sim test
cases to be executed unmodified under Linux and thus simplify debugging
greatly.
