Convert alpha architecture to use u64 as unsigned long long. This is being done so that (a) all arches use u64 as unsigned long long and (b) printk of a u64 as %ll[ux] will not generate format warnings by gcc. The only gcc cross-compiler that I have is 4.0.2, which generates errors about miscompiling __weak references, so I have commented out that line in compiler-gcc4.h so that most of these compile, but more builds and real machine testing would be Real Good.

Synopsis: if shmem_writepage calls swap_writepage directly, most shmem swap loads benefit, and a catastrophic interaction between SLUB and some flash storage is avoided. shmem_writepage() has always been peculiar in making no attempt to write: it has just transferred a shmem page from file cache to swap cache, then let that page make its way around the LRU again before being written and freed. The idea was that people use tmpfs because they want those pages to stay in RAM; so although we give it an overflow to swap, we should resist writing too soon, giving those pages a second chance before they can be reclaimed. That was always questionable, and I've toyed with this patch for years; but never had a clear justification to depart from the original design. It became more questionable in 2.6.28, when the split LRU patches classed shmem and tmpfs pages as SwapBacked rather than as file_cache: that in itself gives them more resistance to reclaim than normal file pages. I prepared this patch for 2.6.29, but the merge window arrived before I'd completed gathering statistics to justify sending it in. Then while comparing SLQB against SLUB, running SLUB on a laptop I'd habitually used with SLAB, I found SLUB to run my tmpfs kbuild swapping tests five times slower than SLAB or SLQB - other machines slower too, but nowhere near so bad. Simpler "cp -a" swapping tests showed the same. slub_max_order=0 brings sanity to all, but heavy swapping is too far from normal to justify such a tuning. The crucial factor on that laptop turns out to be that I'm using an SD card for swap. What happens is this: By default, SLUB uses order-2 pages for shmem_inode_cache (and many other fs inodes), so creating tmpfs files under memory pressure brings lumpy reclaim into play. One subpage of the order is chosen from the bottom of the LRU as usual, then the other three picked out from their random positions on the LRUs. In a tmpfs load, many of these pages will be ones which already passed through shmem_writepage, so already have swap allocated. And though their offsets on swap were probably allocated sequentially, now that the pages are picked off at random, their swap offsets are scattered. But the flash storage on the SD card is very sensitive to having its writes merged: once swap is written at scattered offsets, performance falls apart. Rotating disk seeks increase too, but less disastrously. So: stop giving shmem/tmpfs pages a second pass around the LRU, write them out to swap as soon as their swap has been allocated. It's surely possible to devise an artificial load which runs faster the old way, one whose sizing is such that the tmpfs pages on their second pass are the ones that are wanted again, and other pages not. But I've not yet found such a load: on all machines, under the loads I've tried, immediate swap_writepage speeds up shmem swapping: especially when using the SLUB allocator (and more effectively than slub_max_order=0), but also with the others; and it also reduces the variance between runs. How much faster varies widely: a factor of five is rare, 5% is common. One load which might have suffered: imagine a swapping shmem load in a limited mem_cgroup on a machine with plenty of memory. Before 2.6.29 the swapcache was not charged, and such a load would have run quickest with the shmem swapcache never written to swap. But now swapcache is charged, so even this load benefits from shmem_writepage directly to swap. Apologies for the #ifndef CONFIG_SWAP swap_writepage() stub in swap.h: it's silly because that will never get called; but refactoring shmem.c sensibly according to CONFIG_SWAP will be a separate task.

try_to_free_pages() is used for the direct reclaim of up to SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pages when watermarks are low. The caller to alloc_pages_nodemask() can specify a nodemask of nodes that are allowed to be used but this is not passed to try_to_free_pages(). This can lead to unnecessary reclaim of pages that are unusable by the caller and int the worst case lead to allocation failure as progress was not been make where it is needed. This patch passes the nodemask used for alloc_pages_nodemask() to try_to_free_pages().

page_mkwrite is called with neither the page lock nor the ptl held. This means a page can be concurrently truncated or invalidated out from underneath it. Callers are supposed to prevent truncate races themselves, however previously the only thing they can do in case they hit one is to raise a SIGBUS. A sigbus is wrong for the case that the page has been invalidated or truncated within i_size (eg. hole punched). Callers may also have to perform memory allocations in this path, where again, SIGBUS would be wrong. The previous patch ("mm: page_mkwrite change prototype to match fault") made it possible to properly specify errors. Convert the generic buffer.c code and btrfs to return sane error values (in the case of page removed from pagecache, VM_FAULT_NOPAGE will cause the fault handler to exit without doing anything, and the fault will be retried properly). This fixes core code, and converts btrfs as a template/example. All other filesystems defining their own page_mkwrite should be fixed in a similar manner.

Change the page_mkwrite prototype to take a struct vm_fault, and return VM_FAULT_xxx flags. There should be no functional change. This makes it possible to return much more detailed error information to the VM (and also can provide more information eg. virtual_address to the driver, which might be important in some special cases). This is required for a subsequent fix. And will also make it easier to merge page_mkwrite() with fault() in future.

Since all 64bit NUMA capable architectures should have sufficient vmalloc space, it makes sense to enable it via CONFIG_64BIT. Signed-off-by: NAnton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Acked-by: NDavid S.

I notice there are many places doing copy_from_user() which follows kmalloc(): dst = kmalloc(len, GFP_KERNEL); if (!dst) return -ENOMEM; if (copy_from_user(dst, src, len)) { kfree(dst); return -EFAULT } memdup_user() is a wrapper of the above code. With this new function, we don't have to write 'len' twice, which can lead to typos/mistakes. It also produces smaller code and kernel text. A quick grep shows 250+ places where memdup_user() *may* be used. I'll prepare a patchset to do this conversion.

During page allocation, there are two stages of direct reclaim that are applied to each zone in the preferred list. The first stage using zone_reclaim() reclaims unmapped file backed pages and slab pages if over defined limits as these are cheaper to reclaim. The caller specifies the order of the target allocation but the scan control is not being correctly initialised. The impact is that the correct number of pages are being reclaimed but that lumpy reclaim is not being applied. This increases the chances of a full direct reclaim via try_to_free_pages() is required. This patch initialises the order field of the scan control as requested by the caller.

shrink_inactive_list() scans in sc->swap_cluster_max chunks until it hits the scan limit it was passed. shrink_inactive_list() { do { isolate_pages(swap_cluster_max) shrink_page_list() } while (nr_scanned < max_scan); } This assumes that swap_cluster_max is not bigger than the scan limit because the latter is checked only after at least one iteration. In shrink_all_memory() sc->swap_cluster_max is initialized to the overall reclaim goal in the beginning but not decreased while reclaim is making progress which leads to subsequent calls to shrink_inactive_list() reclaiming way too much in the one iteration that is done unconditionally. Set sc->swap_cluster_max always to the proper goal before doing shrink_all_zones() shrink_list() shrink_inactive_list(). While the current shrink_all_memory() happily reclaims more than actually requested, this patch fixes it to never exceed the goal: unpatched wanted=10000 reclaimed=13356 wanted=10000 reclaimed=19711 wanted=10000 reclaimed=10289 wanted=10000 reclaimed=17306 wanted=10000 reclaimed=10700 wanted=10000 reclaimed=10004 wanted=10000 reclaimed=13301 wanted=10000 reclaimed=10976 wanted=10000 reclaimed=10605 wanted=10000 reclaimed=10088 wanted=10000 reclaimed=15000 patched wanted=10000 reclaimed=10000 wanted=10000 reclaimed=9599 wanted=10000 reclaimed=8476 wanted=10000 reclaimed=8326 wanted=10000 reclaimed=10000 wanted=10000 reclaimed=10000 wanted=10000 reclaimed=9919 wanted=10000 reclaimed=10000 wanted=10000 reclaimed=10000 wanted=10000 reclaimed=10000 wanted=10000 reclaimed=10000 wanted=10000 reclaimed=9624 wanted=10000 reclaimed=10000 wanted=10000 reclaimed=10000 wanted=8500 reclaimed=8092 wanted=316 reclaimed=316 Signed-off-by: NJohannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Reviewed-by: NMinChan Kim <minchan.kim@gmail.com> Acked-by: NNigel Cunningham <ncunningham@crca.org.au> Acked-by: N"Rafael J.

Commit a79311c1 "vmscan: bail out of direct reclaim after swap_cluster_max pages" moved the nr_reclaimed counter into the scan control to accumulate the number of all reclaimed pages in a reclaim invocation. shrink_all_memory() can use the same mechanism. it increase code consistency and redability.

commit bf3f3bc5 (mm: don't mark_page_accessed in fault path) only remove the mark_page_accessed() in filemap_fault(). Therefore, swap-backed pages and file-backed pages have inconsistent behavior. mark_page_accessed() should be removed from do_swap_page().

Impact: cleanup In almost cases, for_each_zone() is used with populated_zone(). It's because almost function doesn't need memoryless node information. Therefore, for_each_populated_zone() can help to make code simplify. This patch has no functional change.

sc.may_swap does not only influence reclaiming of anon pages but pages mapped into pagetables in general, which also includes mapped file pages. In shrink_page_list(): if (!sc->may_swap && page_mapped(page)) goto keep_locked; For anon pages, this makes sense as they are always mapped and reclaiming them always requires swapping. But mapped file pages are skipped here as well and it has nothing to do with swapping. The real effect of the knob is whether mapped pages are unmapped and reclaimed or not. Rename it to `may_unmap' to have its name match its actual meaning more precisely.
