The only caller is __free_one_page(). By the time we should have
page->flags to be cleared already:

 - for 0-order pages though PCP list:
	free_hot_cold_page()
		free_pages_prepare()
			free_pages_check()
				page->flags &= ~PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_PREP;
		<put the page to PCP list>

	free_pcppages_bulk()
		page = <withdraw pages from PCP list>
		__free_one_page(page)

 - for non-0-order pages:
	__free_pages_ok()
		free_pages_prepare()
			free_pages_check()
				page->flags &= ~PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_PREP;
		free_one_page()
			__free_one_page()

So there's no way PageCompound() will return true in __free_one_page().
Let's remove dead destroy_compound_page() and put assert for page->flags
there instead.

Expand the usage of the struct alloc_context introduced in the previous
patch also for calling try_to_compact_pages(), to reduce the number of its
parameters.  Since the function is in different compilation unit, we need
to move alloc_context definition in the shared mm/internal.h header.

With this change we get simpler code and small savings of code size and stack
usage:

add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-27 (-27)

Stack usage of __alloc_pages_direct_compact goes from 24 to none (per
scripts/checkstack.pl).

Introduce struct alloc_context to accumulate the numerous parameters
passed between the alloc_pages* family of functions and
get_page_from_freelist().  This excludes gfp_flags and alloc_info, which
mutate too much along the way, and allocation order, which is conceptually
different.

The result is shorter function signatures, as well as overal code size and
stack usage reductions.

The possibility of replacing the numerous parameters of alloc_pages*
functions with a single structure has been discussed when Minchan proposed
to expand the x86 kernel stack [1].  This series implements the change,
along with few more cleanups/microoptimizations.

The series is based on next-20150108 and I used gcc 4.8.3 20140627 on
openSUSE 13.2 for compiling.  Config includess NUMA and COMPACTION.

The core change is the introduction of a new struct alloc_context, which looks
like this:

struct alloc_context {
        struct zonelist *zonelist;
        nodemask_t *nodemask;
        struct zone *preferred_zone;
        int classzone_idx;
        int migratetype;
        enum zone_type high_zoneidx;
};

All the contents is mostly constant, except that __alloc_pages_slowpath()
changes preferred_zone, classzone_idx and potentially zonelist.  But
that's not a problem in case control returns to retry_cpuset: in
__alloc_pages_nodemask(), those will be reset to initial values again
(although it's a bit subtle).  On the other hand, gfp_flags and alloc_info
mutate so much that it doesn't make sense to put them into alloc_context.
Still, the result is one parameter instead of up to 7.  This is all in
Patch 2.

Patch 3 is a step to expand alloc_context usage out of page_alloc.c
itself.  The function try_to_compact_pages() can also much benefit from
the parameter reduction, but it means the struct definition has to be
moved to a shared header.

Patch 1 should IMHO be included even if the rest is deemed not useful
enough.  It improves maintainability and also has some code/stack
reduction.  Patch 4 is OTOH a tiny optimization.

Overall bloat-o-meter results:

add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/4 up/down: 0/-460 (-460)

This patch (of 4):

prep_new_page() sets almost everything in the struct page of the page
being allocated, except page->pfmemalloc.  This is not obvious and has at
least once led to a bug where page->pfmemalloc was forgotten to be set
correctly, see commit 8fb74b9f ("mm: compaction: partially revert
capture of suitable high-order page").

This patch moves the pfmemalloc setting to prep_new_page(), which means it
needs to gain alloc_flags parameter.  The call to prep_new_page is moved
from buffered_rmqueue() to get_page_from_freelist(), which also leads to
simpler code.  An obsolete comment for buffered_rmqueue() is replaced.

In addition to better maintainability there is a small reduction of code
and stack usage for get_page_from_freelist(), which inlines the other
functions involved.

add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-145 (-145)

Stack usage is reduced from 184 to 168 bytes.

And the page will not be tracked by kmemcheck in the following path.

__alloc_pages_nodemask() strips __GFP_IO when retrying the page
allocation.  But it does this by altering the function-wide variable
gfp_mask.  This will cause subsequent allocation attempts to inadvertently
use the modified gfp_mask.

Also, pass the correct mask (the mask we actually used) into
trace_mm_page_alloc().

If the freeing page and its buddy page are not at the same zone, the
current holding zone->lock for the freeing page cann't prevent buddy page
getting allocated, this could trigger VM_BUG_ON_PAGE in page_is_buddy() at
a very tiny chance, such as:

cpu 0:						cpu 1:
hold zone_1 lock
check page and it buddy
PageBuddy(buddy) is true			hold zone_2 lock
page_order(buddy) == order is true		alloc buddy
trigger VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_count(buddy) != 0)

zone_1->lock prevents the freeing page getting allocated
zone_2->lock prevents the buddy page getting allocated
they are not the same zone->lock.

If we can't remove the zone_id check statement, it's better handle this
rare race.  This patch fixes this by placing the zone_id check before the
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE check.

The OOM killing invocation does a lot of duplicative checks against the
task's allocation context.  Rework it to take advantage of the existing
checks in the allocator slowpath.

The OOM killer is invoked when the allocator is unable to reclaim any
pages but the allocation has to keep looping.  Instead of having a check
for __GFP_NORETRY hidden in oom_gfp_allowed(), just move the OOM
invocation to the true branch of should_alloc_retry().  The __GFP_FS
check from oom_gfp_allowed() can then be moved into the OOM avoidance
branch in __alloc_pages_may_oom(), along with the PF_DUMPCORE test.

__alloc_pages_may_oom() can then signal to the caller whether the OOM
killer was invoked, instead of requiring it to duplicate the order and
high_zoneidx checks to guess this when deciding whether to continue.

When the system boots up, in the dmesg logs we can see the memory
statistics along with total reserved as below.  Memory: 458840k/458840k
available, 65448k reserved, 0K highmem

When CMA is enabled, still the total reserved memory remains the same.
However, the CMA memory is not considered as reserved.  But, when we see
/proc/meminfo, the CMA memory is part of free memory.  This creates
confusion.  This patch corrects the problem by properly subtracting the
CMA reserved memory from the total reserved memory in dmesg logs.

The slab shrinkers are currently invoked from the zonelist walkers in
kswapd, direct reclaim, and zone reclaim, all of which roughly gauge the
eligible LRU pages and assemble a nodemask to pass to NUMA-aware
shrinkers, which then again have to walk over the nodemask.  This is
redundant code, extra runtime work, and fairly inaccurate when it comes to
the estimation of actually scannable LRU pages.  The code duplication will
only get worse when making the shrinkers cgroup-aware and requiring them
to have out-of-band cgroup hierarchy walks as well.

Instead, invoke the shrinkers from shrink_zone(), which is where all
reclaimers end up, to avoid this duplication.

Take the count for eligible LRU pages out of get_scan_count(), which
considers many more factors than just the availability of swap space, like
zone_reclaimable_pages() currently does.  Accumulate the number over all
visited lruvecs to get the per-zone value.

Some nodes have multiple zones due to memory addressing restrictions.  To
avoid putting too much pressure on the shrinkers, only invoke them once
for each such node, using the class zone of the allocation as the pivot
zone.

For now, this integrates the slab shrinking better into the reclaim logic
and gets rid of duplicative invocations from kswapd, direct reclaim, and
zone reclaim.  It also prepares for cgroup-awareness, allowing
memcg-capable shrinkers to be added at the lruvec level without much
duplication of both code and runtime work.

This changes kswapd behavior, which used to invoke the shrinkers for each
zone, but with scan ratios gathered from the entire node, resulting in
meaningless pressure quantities on multi-zone nodes.

Zone reclaim behavior also changes.  It used to shrink slabs until the
same amount of pages were shrunk as were reclaimed from the LRUs.  Now it
merely invokes the shrinkers once with the zone's scan ratio, which makes
the shrinkers go easier on caches that implement aging and would prefer
feeding back pressure from recently used slab objects to unused LRU pages.

This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago.  It
is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it
remain as is.  Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak
or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature.

This functionality help us to know who allocates the page.  When
allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra
memory.  Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and
analyze it from this stored information.

In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in
struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of
struct page.  It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime
without considerable memory waste.

Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free,
using it to analyze page owner is rather complex.  We need to enlarge the
trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched.
And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later
analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather
than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug.

Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes.  For
example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this
patch.  And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature
using this interface.

I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature,
but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history.  Sorry about that.

Now, we have prepared to avoid using debug-pagealloc in boottime.  So
introduce new kernel-parameter to disable debug-pagealloc in boottime, and
makes related functions to be disabled in this case.

Only non-intuitive part is change of guard page functions.  Because guard
page is effective only if debug-pagealloc is enabled, turning off
according to debug-pagealloc is reasonable thing to do.

Until now, debug-pagealloc needs extra flags in struct page, so we need to
recompile whole source code when we decide to use it.  This is really
painful, because it takes some time to recompile and sometimes rebuild is
not possible due to third party module depending on struct page.  So, we
can't use this good feature in many cases.

Now, we have the page extension feature that allows us to insert extra
flags to outside of struct page.  This gets rid of third party module
issue mentioned above.  And, this allows us to determine if we need extra
memory for this page extension in boottime.  With these property, we can
avoid using debug-pagealloc in boottime with low computational overhead in
the kernel built with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC.  This will help our
development process greatly.

This patch is the preparation step to achive above goal.  debug-pagealloc
originally uses extra field of struct page, but, after this patch, it will
use field of struct page_ext.  Because memory for page_ext is allocated
later than initialization of page allocator in CONFIG_SPARSEMEM, we should
disable debug-pagealloc feature temporarily until initialization of
page_ext.  This patch implements this.

When we debug something, we'd like to insert some information to every
page.  For this purpose, we sometimes modify struct page itself.  But,
this has drawbacks.  First, it requires re-compile.  This makes us
hesitate to use the powerful debug feature so development process is
slowed down.  And, second, sometimes it is impossible to rebuild the
kernel due to third party module dependency.  At third, system behaviour
would be largely different after re-compile, because it changes size of
struct page greatly and this structure is accessed by every part of
kernel.  Keeping this as it is would be better to reproduce errornous
situation.

This feature is intended to overcome above mentioned problems.  This
feature allocates memory for extended data per page in certain place
rather than the struct page itself.  This memory can be accessed by the
accessor functions provided by this code.  During the boot process, it
checks whether allocation of huge chunk of memory is needed or not.  If
not, it avoids allocating memory at all.  With this advantage, we can
include this feature into the kernel in default and can avoid rebuild and
solve related problems.

Until now, memcg uses this technique.  But, now, memcg decides to embed
their variable to struct page itself and it's code to extend struct page
has been removed.  I'd like to use this code to develop debug feature, so
this patch resurrect it.

To help these things to work well, this patch introduces two callbacks for
clients.  One is the need callback which is mandatory if user wants to
avoid useless memory allocation at boot-time.  The other is optional, init
callback, which is used to do proper initialization after memory is
allocated.  Detailed explanation about purpose of these functions is in
code comment.  Please refer it.

Others are completely same with previous extension code in memcg.

Page guard is used by debug-pagealloc feature.  Currently, it is

allocator code more readable.

Memory cgroups used to have 5 per-page pointers.  To allow users to
disable that amount of overhead during runtime, those pointers were
allocated in a separate array, with a translation layer between them and
struct page.

There is now only one page pointer remaining: the memcg pointer, that
indicates which cgroup the page is associated with when charged.  The
complexity of runtime allocation and the runtime translation overhead is
no longer justified to save that *potential* 0.19% of memory.  With
CONFIG_SLUB, page->mem_cgroup actually sits in the doubleword padding
after the page->private member and doesn't even increase struct page,
and then this patch actually saves space.  Remaining users that care can
still compile their kernels without CONFIG_MEMCG.

The goal of memory compaction is to create high-order freepages through
page migration.  Page migration however puts pages on the per-cpu lru_add
cache, which is later flushed to per-cpu pcplists, and only after pcplists
are drained the pages can actually merge.  This can happen due to the
per-cpu caches becoming full through further freeing, or explicitly.

During direct compaction, it is useful to do the draining explicitly so
that pages merge as soon as possible and compaction can detect success
immediately and keep the latency impact at minimum.  However the current
implementation is far from ideal.  Draining is done only in
__alloc_pages_direct_compact(), after all zones were already compacted,
and the decisions to continue or stop compaction in individual zones was
done without the last batch of migrations being merged.  It is also
missing the draining of lru_add cache before the pcplists.

This patch moves the draining for direct compaction into compact_zone().
It adds the missing lru_cache draining and uses the newly introduced
single zone pcplists draining to reduce overhead and avoid impact on
unrelated zones.  Draining is only performed when it can actually lead to
merging of a page of desired order (passed by cc->order).  This means it
is only done when migration occurred in the previously scanned cc->order
aligned block(s) and the migration scanner is now pointing to the next
cc->order aligned block.

The patch has been tested with stress-highalloc benchmark from mmtests.
Although overal allocation success rates of the benchmark were not
affected, the number of detected compaction successes has doubled.  This
suggests that allocations were previously successful due to implicit
merging caused by background activity, making a later allocation attempt
succeed immediately, but not attributing the success to compaction.  Since
stress-highalloc always tries to allocate almost the whole memory, it
cannot show the improvement in its reported success rate metric.  However
after this patch, compaction should detect success and terminate earlier,
reducing the direct compaction latencies in a real scenario.

Since commit 53853e2d ("mm, compaction: defer each zone individually
instead of preferred zone"), compaction is deferred for each zone where
sync direct compaction fails, and reset where it succeeds.  However, it
was observed that for DMA zone compaction often appeared to succeed
while subsequent allocation attempt would not, due to different outcome
of watermark check.

In order to properly defer compaction in this zone, the candidate zone
has to be passed back to __alloc_pages_direct_compact() and compaction
deferred in the zone after the allocation attempt fails.

The large source of mismatch between watermark check in compaction and
allocation was the lack of alloc_flags and classzone_idx values in
compaction, which has been fixed in the previous patch.  So with this
problem fixed, we can simplify the code by removing the candidate_zone
parameter and deferring in __alloc_pages_direct_compact().

After this patch, the compaction activity during stress-highalloc
benchmark is still somewhat increased, but it's negligible compared to the
increase that occurred without the better watermark checking.  This
suggests that it is still possible to apparently succeed in compaction but
fail to allocate, possibly due to parallel allocation activity.

Compaction relies on zone watermark checks for decisions such as if it's
worth to start compacting in compaction_suitable() or whether compaction
should stop in compact_finished().  The watermark checks take
classzone_idx and alloc_flags parameters, which are related to the memory
allocation request.  But from the context of compaction they are currently
passed as 0, including the direct compaction which is invoked to satisfy
the allocation request, and could therefore know the proper values.

The lack of proper values can lead to mismatch between decisions taken
during compaction and decisions related to the allocation request.  Lack
of proper classzone_idx value means that lowmem_reserve is not taken into
account.  This has manifested (during recent changes to deferred
compaction) when DMA zone was used as fallback for preferred Normal zone.
compaction_suitable() without proper classzone_idx would think that the
watermarks are already satisfied, but watermark check in
get_page_from_freelist() would fail.  Because of this problem, deferring
compaction has extra complexity that can be removed in the following
patch.

The issue (not confirmed in practice) with missing alloc_flags is opposite
in nature.  For allocations that include ALLOC_HIGH, ALLOC_HIGHER or
ALLOC_CMA in alloc_flags (the last includes all MOVABLE allocations on
CMA-enabled systems) the watermark checking in compaction with 0 passed
will be stricter than in get_page_from_freelist().  In these cases
compaction might be running for a longer time than is really needed.

Another issue compaction_suitable() is that the check for "does the zone
need compaction at all?" comes only after the check "does the zone have
enough free free pages to succeed compaction".  The latter considers extra
pages for migration and can therefore in some situations fail and return
COMPACT_SKIPPED, although the high-order allocation would succeed and we
should return COMPACT_PARTIAL.

This patch fixes these problems by adding alloc_flags and classzone_idx to
struct compact_control and related functions involved in direct compaction
and watermark checking.  Where possible, all other callers of
compaction_suitable() pass proper values where those are known.  This is
currently limited to classzone_idx, which is sometimes known in kswapd
context.  However, the direct reclaim callers should_continue_reclaim()
and compaction_ready() do not currently know the proper values, so the
coordination between reclaim and compaction may still not be as accurate
as it could.  This can be fixed later, if it's shown to be an issue.

Additionaly the checks in compact_suitable() are reordered to address the
second issue described above.

The effect of this patch should be slightly better high-order allocation
success rates and/or less compaction overhead, depending on the type of
allocations and presence of CMA.  It allows simplifying deferred
compaction code in a followup patch.

When testing with stress-highalloc, there was some slight improvement
(which might be just due to variance) in success rates of non-THP-like
allocations.

The functions for draining per-cpu pages back to buddy allocators
currently always operate on all zones.  There are however several cases
where the drain is only needed in the context of a single zone, and
spilling other pcplists is a waste of time both due to the extra
spilling and later refilling.

This patch introduces new zone pointer parameter to drain_all_pages()
and changes the dummy parameter of drain_local_pages() to be also a zone
pointer.  When NULL is passed, the functions operate on all zones as
usual.  Passing a specific zone pointer reduces the work to the single
zone.

All callers are updated to pass the NULL pointer in this patch.
Conversion to single zone (where appropriate) is done in further
patches.

One thing I did in this patch is fixing freepage accounting.  If we
clear guard page and link it onto isolate buddy list, we should not
increase freepage count.  This patch adds conditional branch to skip
counting in this case.  Without this patch, this overcounting happens
frequently if guard order is set and CMA is used.

Another thing fixed in this patch is the target to reset order.  In
__free_one_page(), we check the buddy page whether it is a guard page or
not.  And, if so, we should clear guard attribute on the buddy page and
reset order of it to 0.  But, current code resets original page's order
rather than buddy one's.  Maybe, this doesn't have any problem, because
whole merged page's order will be re-assigned soon.  But, it is better
to correct code.

Having test_pages_isolated failure message as a warning confuses users
into thinking that it is more serious than it really is.  In reality, if
called via CMA, allocation will be retried so a single
test_pages_isolated failure does not prevent allocation from succeeding.

Demote the warning message to an info message and reformat it such that
the text "failed" does not appear and instead a less worrying "PFNS
busy" is used.

This message is trivially reproducible on a 10GB x86 machine on 3.16.y
kernels configured with CONFIG_DMA_CMA.

Current pageblock isolation logic could isolate each pageblock
individually.  This causes freepage accounting problem if freepage with
pageblock order on isolate pageblock is merged with other freepage on
normal pageblock.  We can prevent merging by restricting max order of
merging to pageblock order if freepage is on isolate pageblock.

A side-effect of this change is that there could be non-merged buddy
freepage even if finishing pageblock isolation, because undoing
pageblock isolation is just to move freepage from isolate buddy list to
normal buddy list rather than to consider merging.  So, the patch also
makes undoing pageblock isolation consider freepage merge.  When
un-isolation, freepage with more than pageblock order and it's buddy are
checked.  If they are on normal pageblock, instead of just moving, we
isolate the freepage and free it in order to get merged.

In free_pcppages_bulk(), we use cached migratetype of freepage to
determine type of buddy list where freepage will be added.  This
information is stored when freepage is added to pcp list, so if
isolation of pageblock of this freepage begins after storing, this
cached information could be stale.  In other words, it has original
migratetype rather than MIGRATE_ISOLATE.

There are two problems caused by this stale information.

One is that we can't keep these freepages from being allocated.
Although this pageblock is isolated, freepage will be added to normal
buddy list so that it could be allocated without any restriction.  And
the other problem is incorrect freepage accounting.  Freepages on
isolate pageblock should not be counted for number of freepage.

Following is the code snippet in free_pcppages_bulk().

    /* MIGRATE_MOVABLE list may include MIGRATE_RESERVEs */
    __free_one_page(page, page_to_pfn(page), zone, 0, mt);
    trace_mm_page_pcpu_drain(page, 0, mt);
    if (likely(!is_migrate_isolate_page(page))) {
        __mod_zone_page_state(zone, NR_FREE_PAGES, 1);
        if (is_migrate_cma(mt))
            __mod_zone_page_state(zone, NR_FREE_CMA_PAGES, 1);
    }

As you can see above snippet, current code already handle second
problem, incorrect freepage accounting, by re-fetching pageblock
migratetype through is_migrate_isolate_page(page).

But, because this re-fetched information isn't used for
__free_one_page(), first problem would not be solved.  This patch try to
solve this situation to re-fetch pageblock migratetype before
__free_one_page() and to use it for __free_one_page().

In addition to move up position of this re-fetch, this patch use
optimization technique, re-fetching migratetype only if there is isolate
pageblock.  Pageblock isolation is rare event, so we can avoid
re-fetching in common case with this optimization.

This patch also correct migratetype of the tracepoint output.

Before describing bugs itself, I first explain definition of freepage.

 1. pages on buddy list are counted as freepage.
 2. pages on isolate migratetype buddy list are *not* counted as freepage.
 3. pages on cma buddy list are counted as CMA freepage, too.

Now, I describe problems and related patch.

Patch 1: There is race conditions on getting pageblock migratetype that
it results in misplacement of freepages on buddy list, incorrect
freepage count and un-availability of freepage.

Patch 2: Freepages on pcp list could have stale cached information to
determine migratetype of buddy list to go.  This causes misplacement of
freepages on buddy list and incorrect freepage count.

Patch 4: Merging between freepages on different migratetype of
pageblocks will cause freepages accouting problem.  This patch fixes it.

Without patchset [3], above problem doesn't happens on my CMA allocation
test, because CMA reserved pages aren't used at all.  So there is no
chance for above race.

With patchset [3], I did simple CMA allocation test and get below
result:

 - Virtual machine, 4 cpus, 1024 MB memory, 256 MB CMA reservation
 - run kernel build (make -j16) on background
 - 30 times CMA allocation(8MB * 30 = 240MB) attempts in 5 sec interval
 - Result: more than 5000 freepage count are missed

With patchset [3] and this patchset, I found that no freepage count are
missed so that I conclude that problems are solved.

On my simple memory offlining test, these problems also occur on that
environment, too.

This patch (of 4):

There are two paths to reach core free function of buddy allocator,
__free_one_page(), one is free_one_page()->__free_one_page() and the
other is free_hot_cold_page()->free_pcppages_bulk()->__free_one_page().
Each paths has race condition causing serious problems.  At first, this
patch is focused on first type of freepath.  And then, following patch
will solve the problem in second type of freepath.

In the first type of freepath, we got migratetype of freeing page
without holding the zone lock, so it could be racy.  There are two cases
of this race.

 1. pages are added to isolate buddy list after restoring orignal
    migratetype

    CPU1                                   CPU2

    get migratetype => return MIGRATE_ISOLATE
    call free_one_page() with MIGRATE_ISOLATE

                                grab the zone lock
                                unisolate pageblock
                                release the zone lock

    grab the zone lock
    call __free_one_page() with MIGRATE_ISOLATE
    freepage go into isolate buddy list,
    although pageblock is already unisolated

This may cause two problems.  One is that we can't use this page anymore
until next isolation attempt of this pageblock, because freepage is on
isolate buddy list.  The other is that freepage accouting could be wrong
due to merging between different buddy list.  Freepages on isolate buddy
list aren't counted as freepage, but ones on normal buddy list are
counted as freepage.  If merge happens, buddy freepage on normal buddy
list is inevitably moved to isolate buddy list without any consideration
of freepage accouting so it could be incorrect.

 2. pages are added to normal buddy list while pageblock is isolated.
    It is similar with above case.

This also may cause two problems.  One is that we can't keep these
freepages from being allocated.  Although this pageblock is isolated,
freepage would be added to normal buddy list so that it could be
allocated without any restriction.  And the other problem is same as
case 1, that it, incorrect freepage accouting.

This race condition would be prevented by checking migratetype again
with holding the zone lock.  Because it is somewhat heavy operation and
it isn't needed in common case, we want to avoid rechecking as much as
possible.  So this patch introduce new variable, nr_isolate_pageblock in
struct zone to check if there is isolated pageblock.  With this, we can
avoid to re-check migratetype in common case and do it only if there is
isolated pageblock or migratetype is MIGRATE_ISOLATE.  This solve above
mentioned problems.

Changes from v3:
Add one more check in free_one_page() that checks whether migratetype is
MIGRATE_ISOLATE or not. Without this, abovementioned case 1 could happens.

Current cpuset API for checking if a zone/node is allowed to allocate
from looks rather awkward. We have hardwall and softwall versions of
cpuset_node_allowed with the softwall version doing literally the same
as the hardwall version if __GFP_HARDWALL is passed to it in gfp flags.
If it isn't, the softwall version may check the given node against the
enclosing hardwall cpuset, which it needs to take the callback lock to
do.

Such a distinction was introduced by commit 02a0e53d ("cpuset:
rework cpuset_zone_allowed api"). Before, we had the only version with
the __GFP_HARDWALL flag determining its behavior. The purpose of the
commit was to avoid sleep-in-atomic bugs when someone would mistakenly
call the function without the __GFP_HARDWALL flag for an atomic
allocation. The suffixes introduced were intended to make the callers
think before using the function.

However, since the callback lock was converted from mutex to spinlock by
the previous patch, the softwall check function cannot sleep, and these
precautions are no longer necessary.

So let's simplify the API back to the single check.

PM freezer relies on having all tasks frozen by the time devices are
getting frozen so that no task will touch them while they are getting
frozen. But OOM killer is allowed to kill an already frozen task in
order to handle OOM situtation. In order to protect from late wake ups
OOM killer is disabled after all tasks are frozen. This, however, still
keeps a window open when a killed task didn't manage to die by the time
freeze_processes finishes.

Reduce the race window by checking all tasks after OOM killer has been
disabled. This is still not race free completely unfortunately because
oom_killer_disable cannot stop an already ongoing OOM killer so a task
might still wake up from the fridge and get killed without
freeze_processes noticing. Full synchronization of OOM and freezer is,
however, too heavy weight for this highly unlikely case.

Introduce and check oom_kills counter which gets incremented early when
the allocator enters __alloc_pages_may_oom path and only check all the
tasks if the counter changes during the freezing attempt. The counter
is updated so early to reduce the race window since allocator checked
oom_killer_disabled which is set by PM-freezing code. A false positive
will push the PM-freezer into a slow path but that is not a big deal.

Changes since v1
- push the re-check loop out of freeze_processes into
  check_frozen_processes and invert the condition to make the code more
  readable as per Rafael

Zones are allocated by the page allocator in either node or zone order.
Node ordering is preferred in terms of locality and is applied
automatically in one of three cases:

  1. If a node has only low memory

  2. If DMA/DMA32 is a high percentage of memory

  3. If low memory on a single node is greater than 70% of the node size

Otherwise zone ordering is used to preserve low memory for devices that
require it.  Unfortunately a consequence of this is that applications
running on a machine with balanced NUMA nodes will experience different
performance characteristics depending on which node they happen to start
from.

The point of zone ordering is to protect lower zones for devices that
require DMA/DMA32 memory.  When NUMA was first introduced, this was
critical as 32-bit NUMA machines existed and exhausting low memory
triggered OOMs easily as so many allocations required low memory.  On
64-bit machines the primary concern is devices that are 32-bit only which
is less severe than the low memory exhaustion problem on 32-bit NUMA.  It
seems there are really few devices that depends on it.

AGP -- I assume this is getting more rare but even then I think the allocations
	happen early in boot time where lowmem pressure is less of a problem

DRM -- If the device is 32-bit only then there may be low pressure. I didn't
	evaluate these in detail but it looks like some of these are mobile
	graphics card. Not many NUMA laptops out there. DRM folk should know
	better though.

Some TV cards -- Much demand for 32-bit capable TV cards on NUMA machines?

B43 wireless card -- again not really a NUMA thing.

I cannot find a good reason to incur a performance penalty on all 64-bit NUMA
machines in case someone throws a brain damanged TV or graphics card in there.
This patch defaults to node-ordering on 64-bit NUMA machines. I was tempted
to make it default everywhere but I understand that some embedded arches may
be using 32-bit NUMA where I cannot predict the consequences.

The performance impact depends on the workload and the characteristics of the
machine and the machine I tested on had a large Normal zone on node 0 so the
impact is within the noise for the majority of tests. The allocation stats
show more allocation requests were from DMA32 and local node. Running SpecJBB
with multiple JVMs and automatic NUMA balancing disabled the results were

Note that there were more DMA32 allocations with the patch applied.  In this
particular case there was no difference in numa_hit and numa_miss. The
expectation is that DMA32 was being used at the low watermark instead of
falling into the slow path. kswapd was not woken but it's not worken for
THP allocations.

On 32-bit, this patch defaults to zone-ordering as low memory depletion
can be a serious problem on 32-bit large memory machines. If the default
ordering was node then processes on node 0 will deplete the Normal zone
due to normal activity.  The problem is worse if CONFIG_HIGHPTE is not
set. If combined with large amounts of dirty/writeback pages in Normal
zone then there is also a high risk of OOM. The heuristics are removed
as it's not clear they were ever important on 32-bit. They were only
relevant for setting node-ordering on 64-bit.

Since 2.6.24 there has been a paranoid check in move_freepages that looks
up the zone of two pages.  This is a very slow path and the only time I've
seen this bug trigger recently is when memory initialisation was broken
during patch development.  Despite the fact it's a slow path, this patch
converts the check to a VM_BUG_ON anyway as it has served its purpose by
now.

Page reclaim tests zone_is_reclaim_dirty(), but the site that actually
sets this state does zone_set_flag(zone, ZONE_TAIL_LRU_DIRTY), sending the
reader through layers indirection just to track down a simple bit.

Remove all zone flag wrappers and just use bitops against zone->flags
directly.  It's just as readable and the lines are barely any longer.

Also rename ZONE_TAIL_LRU_DIRTY to ZONE_DIRTY to match ZONE_WRITEBACK, and
remove the zone_flags_t typedef.

When entering the page_alloc slowpath, we wakeup kswapd on every pgdat
according to the zonelist and high_zoneidx.  However, this doesn't take
nodemask into account, and could prematurely wakeup kswapd on some
unintended nodes.

This patch uses for_each_zone_zonelist_nodemask() instead of
for_each_zone_zonelist() in wake_all_kswapds() to avoid the above
situation.
