      mm/memory_hotplug: add comment to some functions related to memory hotplug · b9eb6319
      Joonsoo Kim 提交于
      __offline_isolated_pages() and test_pages_isolated() are used by memory
      hotplug.  These functions require that range is in a single zone but
      there is no code to do this because memory hotplug checks it before
      calling these functions.  To avoid confusing future user of these
      functions, this patch adds comments to them.

      mm/hugetlb: add same zone check in pfn_range_valid_gigantic() · f44b2dda
      Joonsoo Kim 提交于
      This patchset deals with some problematic sites that iterate pfn ranges.
      
      There is a system thats node's pfns are overlapped as follows:
      
        -----pfn-------->
        N0 N1 N2 N0 N1 N2
      
      Therefore, we need to take care of this overlapping when iterating pfn
      range.
      
      I audit many iterating sites that uses pfn_valid(), pfn_valid_within(),
      zone_start_pfn and etc.  and others looks safe to me.  This is a
      preparation step for a new CMA implementation, ZONE_CMA
      (https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/2/12/95), because it would be easily
      overlapped with other zones.  But, zone overlap check is also needed for
      the general case so I send it separately.
      
      This patch (of 5):
      
      alloc_gigantic_page() uses alloc_contig_range() and this requires that
      the requested range is in a single zone.  To satisfy this requirement,
      add this check to pfn_range_valid_gigantic().

      mm, compaction: skip blocks where isolation fails in async direct compaction · fdd048e1
      Vlastimil Babka 提交于
      The goal of direct compaction is to quickly make a high-order page
      available for the pending allocation.  Within an aligned block of pages
      of desired order, a single allocated page that cannot be isolated for
      migration means that the block cannot fully merge to a buddy page that
      would satisfy the allocation request.  Therefore we can reduce the
      allocation stall by skipping the rest of the block immediately on
      isolation failure.  For async compaction, this also means a higher
      chance of succeeding until it detects contention.
      
      We however shouldn't completely sacrifice the second objective of
      compaction, which is to reduce overal long-term memory fragmentation.
      As a compromise, perform the eager skipping only in direct async
      compaction, while sync compaction (including kcompactd) remains
      thorough.
      
      Testing was done using stress-highalloc from mmtests, configured for
      order-4 GFP_KERNEL allocations:
      
                                       4.6-rc1               4.6-rc1

        Success 1 Mean        30.20 (  0.00%)       31.60 ( -4.64%)
        Success 1 Max         37.00 (  0.00%)       35.00 (  5.41%)
        Success 2 Min         42.00 (  0.00%)       32.00 ( 23.81%)
        Success 2 Mean        44.00 (  0.00%)       44.80 ( -1.82%)
        Success 2 Max         48.00 (  0.00%)       52.00 ( -8.33%)
        Success 3 Min         91.00 (  0.00%)       92.00 ( -1.10%)
        Success 3 Mean        92.20 (  0.00%)       92.80 ( -0.65%)
        Success 3 Max         94.00 (  0.00%)       93.00 (  1.06%)
      
      We can see that success rates are unaffected by the skipping.

        Direct pages reclaimed              163354      159505
      
      Reduced direct reclaim was unintended, but could be explained by more
      successful first attempt at (async) direct compaction, which is
      attempted before the first reclaim attempt in __alloc_pages_slowpath().

      Compaction is indeed more successful, and thus less likely to get
      deferred, so there are also more direct compaction stalls.

      mm, compaction: reduce spurious pcplist drains · a34753d2
      Vlastimil Babka 提交于
      Compaction drains the local pcplists each time migration scanner moves
      away from a cc->order aligned block where it isolated pages for
      migration, so that the pages freed by migrations can merge into higher
      orders.
      
      The detection is currently coarser than it could be.  The
      cc->last_migrated_pfn variable should track the lowest pfn that was
      isolated for migration.  But it is set to the pfn where
      isolate_migratepages_block() starts scanning, which is typically the
      first pfn of the pageblock.  There, the scanner might fail to isolate
      several order-aligned blocks, and then isolate COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX in
      another block.  This would cause the pcplists drain to be performed,
      although the scanner didn't yet finish the block where it isolated from.
      
      This patch thus makes cc->last_migrated_pfn handling more accurate by
      setting it to the pfn of an actually isolated page in
      isolate_migratepages_block().  Although practical effects of this patch
      are likely low, it arguably makes the intent of the code more obvious.
      Also the next patch will make async direct compaction skip blocks more
      aggressively, and draining pcplists due to skipped blocks is wasteful.

      mm/hugetlb: introduce hugetlb_bad_size() · 9fee021d
      Vaishali Thakkar 提交于
      When any unsupported hugepage size is specified, 'hugepagesz=' and
      'hugepages=' should be ignored during command line parsing until any
      supported hugepage size is found.  But currently incorrect number of
      hugepages are allocated when unsupported size is specified as it fails
      to ignore the 'hugepages=' command.
      
      Test case:
      
      Note that this is specific to x86 architecture.
      
      Boot the kernel with command line option 'hugepagesz=256M hugepages=X'.
      After boot, dmesg output shows that X number of hugepages of the size 2M
      is pre-allocated instead of 0.
      
      So, to handle such command line options, introduce new routine
      hugetlb_bad_size.  The routine hugetlb_bad_size sets the global variable
      parsed_valid_hugepagesz.  We are using parsed_valid_hugepagesz to save
      the state when unsupported hugepagesize is found so that we can ignore
      the 'hugepages=' parameters after that and then reset the variable when
      supported hugepage size is found.
      
      The routine hugetlb_bad_size can be called while setting 'hugepagesz='
      parameter in an architecture specific code.

      mm/hugetlb: optimize minimum size (min_size) accounting · 09a95e29
      Mike Kravetz 提交于
      It was observed that minimum size accounting associated with the
      hugetlbfs min_size mount option may not perform optimally and as
      expected.  As huge pages/reservations are released from the filesystem
      and given back to the global pools, they are reserved for subsequent
      filesystem use as long as the subpool reserved count is less than
      subpool minimum size.  It does not take into account used pages within
      the filesystem.  The filesystem size limits are not exceeded and this is
      technically not a bug.  However, better behavior would be to wait for
      the number of used pages/reservations associated with the filesystem to
      drop below the minimum size before taking reservations to satisfy
      minimum size.
      
      An optimization is also made to the hugepage_subpool_get_pages() routine
      which is called when pages/reservations are allocated.  This does not
      change behavior, but simply avoids the accounting if all reservations
      have already been taken (subpool reserved count == 0).

      include/linux: apply __malloc attribute · 48a27055
      Rasmus Villemoes 提交于
      Attach the malloc attribute to a few allocation functions.  This helps
      gcc generate better code by telling it that the return value doesn't
      alias any existing pointers (which is even more valuable given the
      pessimizations implied by -fno-strict-aliasing).
      
      A simple example of what this allows gcc to do can be seen by looking at
      the last part of drm_atomic_helper_plane_reset:
      
      	plane->state = kzalloc(sizeof(*plane->state), GFP_KERNEL);
      
      	if (plane->state) {
      		plane->state->plane = plane;
      		plane->state->rotation = BIT(DRM_ROTATE_0);
      	}
      
      which compiles to
      
          e8 99 bf d6 ff          callq  ffffffff8116d540 <kmem_cache_alloc_trace>
          48 85 c0                test   %rax,%rax

      With this patch applied, the instruction at [*] is elided, since the
      store to plane->state->plane is known to not alter the value of
      plane->state.

      compiler.h: add support for malloc attribute · d64e85d3
      Rasmus Villemoes 提交于
      gcc as far back as at least 3.04 documents the function attribute
      __malloc__.  Add a shorthand for attaching that to a function
      declaration.  This was also suggested by Andi Kleen way back in 2002
      [1], but didn't get applied, perhaps because gcc at that time generated
      the exact same code with and without this attribute.
      
      This attribute tells the compiler that the return value (if non-NULL)
      can be assumed not to alias any other valid pointers at the time of the
      call.
      
      Please note that the documentation for a range of gcc versions (starting
      from around 4.7) contained a somewhat confusing and self-contradicting
      text:
      
        The malloc attribute is used to tell the compiler that a function may
        be treated as if any non-NULL pointer it returns cannot alias any other
        pointer valid when the function returns and *that the memory has
        undefined content*.  [...] Standard functions with this property include
        malloc and *calloc*.
      
      (emphasis mine). The intended meaning has later been clarified [2]:
      
        This tells the compiler that a function is malloc-like, i.e., that the
        pointer P returned by the function cannot alias any other pointer valid
        when the function returns, and moreover no pointers to valid objects
        occur in any storage addressed by P.
      
      What this means is that we can apply the attribute to kmalloc and
      friends, and it is ok for the returned memory to have well-defined
      contents (__GFP_ZERO).  But it is not ok to apply it to kmemdup(), nor
      to other functions which both allocate and possibly initialize the
      memory with existing pointers.  So unless someone is doing something
      pretty perverted kstrdup() should also be a fine candidate.

      mm: SLAB freelist randomization · c7ce4f60
      Thomas Garnier 提交于
      Provides an optional config (CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_RANDOM) to randomize
      the SLAB freelist.  The list is randomized during initialization of a
      new set of pages.  The order on different freelist sizes is pre-computed
      at boot for performance.  Each kmem_cache has its own randomized
      freelist.  Before pre-computed lists are available freelists are
      generated dynamically.  This security feature reduces the predictability
      of the kernel SLAB allocator against heap overflows rendering attacks
      much less stable.
      
      For example this attack against SLUB (also applicable against SLAB)
      would be affected:
      
        https://jon.oberheide.org/blog/2010/09/10/linux-kernel-can-slub-overflow/
      
      Also, since v4.6 the freelist was moved at the end of the SLAB.  It
      means a controllable heap is opened to new attacks not yet publicly
      discussed.  A kernel heap overflow can be transformed to multiple
      use-after-free.  This feature makes this type of attack harder too.
      
      To generate entropy, we use get_random_bytes_arch because 0 bits of
      entropy is available in the boot stage.  In the worse case this function
      will fallback to the get_random_bytes sub API.  We also generate a shift
      random number to shift pre-computed freelist for each new set of pages.
      
      The config option name is not specific to the SLAB as this approach will
      be extended to other allocators like SLUB.
      
      Performance results highlighted no major changes:
      
      Hackbench (running 90 10 times):
      
        Before average: 0.0698

      mm/slub.c: replace kick_all_cpus_sync() with synchronize_sched() in kmem_cache_shrink() · 81ae6d03
      Vladimir Davydov 提交于
      When we call __kmem_cache_shrink on memory cgroup removal, we need to
      synchronize kmem_cache->cpu_partial update with put_cpu_partial that
      might be running on other cpus.  Currently, we achieve that by using
      kick_all_cpus_sync, which works as a system wide memory barrier.  Though
      fast it is, this method has a flaw - it issues a lot of IPIs, which
      might hurt high performance or real-time workloads.
      
      To fix this, let's replace kick_all_cpus_sync with synchronize_sched.
      Although the latter one may take much longer to finish, it shouldn't be
      a problem in this particular case, because memory cgroups are destroyed
      asynchronously from a workqueue so that no user visible effects should
      be introduced.  OTOH, it will save us from excessive IPIs when someone
      removes a cgroup.
      
      Anyway, even if using synchronize_sched turns out to take too long, we
      can always introduce a kind of __kmem_cache_shrink batching so that this
      method would only be called once per one cgroup destruction (not per
      each per memcg kmem cache as it is now).

      mm/slab: lockless decision to grow cache · 801faf0d
      Joonsoo Kim 提交于
      To check whether free objects exist or not precisely, we need to grab a
      lock.  But, accuracy isn't that important because race window would be
      even small and if there is too much free object, cache reaper would reap
      it.  So, this patch makes the check for free object exisistence not to
      hold a lock.  This will reduce lock contention in heavily allocation
      case.
      
      Note that until now, n->shared can be freed during the processing by
      writing slabinfo, but, with some trick in this patch, we can access it
      freely within interrupt disabled period.
      
      Below is the result of concurrent allocation/free in slab allocation
      benchmark made by Christoph a long time ago.  I make the output simpler.
      The number shows cycle count during alloc/free respectively so less is
      better.

      It shows that allocation performance decreases for the object size up to
      128 and it may be due to extra checks in cache_alloc_refill().  But,
      with considering improvement of free performance, net result looks the
      same.  Result for other size class looks very promising, roughly, 50%
      performance improvement.

      mm/slab: refill cpu cache through a new slab without holding a node lock · 213b4695

      Until now, cache growing makes a free slab on node's slab list and then
      we can allocate free objects from it.  This necessarily requires to hold
      a node lock which is very contended.  If we refill cpu cache before
      attaching it to node's slab list, we can avoid holding a node lock as
      much as possible because this newly allocated slab is only visible to
      the current task.  This will reduce lock contention.

      This is a preparation step to implement lockless allocation path when

      What we'd like to do here is to refill cpu cache without holding a node
      lock.  To accomplish this purpose, refill should be done after new slab
      allocation but before attaching the slab to the management list.  So,
      this patch separates cache_grow() to two parts, allocation and attaching
      to the list in order to add some code inbetween them in the following

      mm/slab: don't keep free slabs if free_objects exceeds free_limit · 6052b788
      Joonsoo Kim 提交于
      Currently, determination to free a slab is done whenever each freed
      object is put into the slab.  This has a following problem.
      
      Assume free_limit = 10 and nr_free = 9.
      
      Free happens as following sequence and nr_free changes as following.
      
      free(become a free slab) free(not become a free slab) nr_free: 9 -> 10
      (at first free) -> 11 (at second free)
      
      If we try to check if we can free current slab or not on each object
      free, we can't free any slab in this situation because current slab
      isn't a free slab when nr_free exceed free_limit (at second free) even
      if there is a free slab.
      
      However, if we check it lastly, we can free 1 free slab.
      
      This problem would cause to keep too much memory in the slab subsystem.
      This patch try to fix it by checking number of free object after all
      free work is done.  If there is free slab at that time, we can free slab
      as much as possible so we keep free slab as minimal.
