      mm: hide a #warning for COMPILE_TEST · af27d940
      由 Arnd Bergmann 提交于 
      We get a warning about some slow configurations in randconfig kernels:

  mm/memory.c:83:2: error: #warning Unfortunate NUMA and NUMA Balancing config, growing page-frame for last_cpupid. [-Werror=cpp]

The warning is reasonable by itself, but gets in the way of randconfig
build testing, so I'm hiding it whenever CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST is set.

The warning was added in 2013 in commit 75980e97 ("mm: fold
page->_last_nid into page->flags where possible").

      Revert "mm: replace p??_write with pte_access_permitted in fault + gup paths" · f6f37321
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      This reverts commits 5c9d2d5c, c7da82b8, and e7fe7b5c.

We'll probably need to revisit this, but basically we should not
complicate the get_user_pages_fast() case, and checking the actual page
table protection key bits will require more care anyway, since the
protection keys depend on the exact state of the VM in question.

Particularly when doing a "remote" page lookup (ie in somebody elses VM,
not your own), you need to be much more careful than this was.  Dave
Hansen says:

 "So, the underlying bug here is that we now a get_user_pages_remote()
  and then go ahead and do the p*_access_permitted() checks against the
  current PKRU. This was introduced recently with the addition of the
  new p??_access_permitted() calls.

  We have checks in the VMA path for the "remote" gups and we avoid
  consulting PKRU for them. This got missed in the pkeys selftests
  because I did a ptrace read, but not a *write*. I also didn't
  explicitly test it against something where a COW needed to be done"

It's also not entirely clear that it makes sense to check the protection
key bits at this level at all.  But one possible eventual solution is to
make the get_user_pages_fast() case just abort if it sees protection key
bits set, which makes us fall back to the regular get_user_pages() case,
which then has a vma and can do the check there if we want to.

We'll see.

Somewhat related to this all: what we _do_ want to do some day is to
check the PAGE_USER bit - it should obviously always be set for user
pages, but it would be a good check to have back.  Because we have no
generic way to test for it, we lost it as part of moving over from the
architecture-specific x86 GUP implementation to the generic one in
commit e585513b ("x86/mm/gup: Switch GUP to the generic
get_user_page_fast() implementation").

      mm, thp: Do not make pmd/pud dirty without a reason · 152e93af
      由 Kirill A. Shutemov 提交于 
      Currently we make page table entries dirty all the time regardless of
access type and don't even consider if the mapping is write-protected.
The reasoning is that we don't really need dirty tracking on THP and
making the entry dirty upfront may save some time on first write to the
page.

Unfortunately, such approach may result in false-positive
can_follow_write_pmd() for huge zero page or read-only shmem file.

Let's only make page dirty only if we about to write to the page anyway
(as we do for small pages).

I've restructured the code to make entry dirty inside
maybe_p[mu]d_mkwrite(). It also takes into account if the vma is
write-protected.

      locking/atomics, mm: Convert ACCESS_ONCE() to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() · b03a0fe0
      由 Paul E. McKenney 提交于 
      For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't currently harmful.

However, for some features it is necessary to instrument reads and
writes separately, which is not possible with ACCESS_ONCE(). This
distinction is critical to correct operation.

It's possible to transform the bulk of kernel code using the Coccinelle
script below. However, this doesn't handle comments, leaving references
to ACCESS_ONCE() instances which have been removed. As a preparatory
step, this patch converts the mm code and comments to use
{READ,WRITE}_ONCE() consistently.

      mm: hugetlb: clear target sub-page last when clearing huge page · c79b57e4
      由 Huang Ying 提交于 
      Huge page helps to reduce TLB miss rate, but it has higher cache
footprint, sometimes this may cause some issue.  For example, when
clearing huge page on x86_64 platform, the cache footprint is 2M.  But
on a Xeon E5 v3 2699 CPU, there are 18 cores, 36 threads, and only 45M
LLC (last level cache).  That is, in average, there are 2.5M LLC for
each core and 1.25M LLC for each thread.

If the cache pressure is heavy when clearing the huge page, and we clear
the huge page from the begin to the end, it is possible that the begin
of huge page is evicted from the cache after we finishing clearing the
end of the huge page.  And it is possible for the application to access
the begin of the huge page after clearing the huge page.

To help the above situation, in this patch, when we clear a huge page,
the order to clear sub-pages is changed.  In quite some situation, we
can get the address that the application will access after we clear the
huge page, for example, in a page fault handler.  Instead of clearing
the huge page from begin to end, we will clear the sub-pages farthest
from the the sub-page to access firstly, and clear the sub-page to
access last.  This will make the sub-page to access most cache-hot and
sub-pages around it more cache-hot too.  If we cannot know the address
the application will access, the begin of the huge page is assumed to be
the the address the application will access.

With this patch, the throughput increases ~28.3% in vm-scalability
anon-w-seq test case with 72 processes on a 2 socket Xeon E5 v3 2699
system (36 cores, 72 threads).  The test case creates 72 processes, each
process mmap a big anonymous memory area and writes to it from the begin
to the end.  For each process, other processes could be seen as other
workload which generates heavy cache pressure.  At the same time, the
cache miss rate reduced from ~33.4% to ~31.7%, the IPC (instruction per
cycle) increased from 0.56 to 0.74, and the time spent in user space is
reduced ~7.9%

Christopher Lameter suggests to clear bytes inside a sub-page from end
to begin too.  But tests show no visible performance difference in the
tests.  May because the size of page is small compared with the cache
size.

Thanks Andi Kleen to propose to use address to access to determine the
order of sub-pages to clear.

The hugetlbfs access address could be improved, will do that in another
patch.

    • H
      mm, swap: VMA based swap readahead · ec560175
      由 Huang Ying 提交于 
      The swap readahead is an important mechanism to reduce the swap in
latency.  Although pure sequential memory access pattern isn't very
popular for anonymous memory, the space locality is still considered
valid.

In the original swap readahead implementation, the consecutive blocks in
swap device are readahead based on the global space locality estimation.
But the consecutive blocks in swap device just reflect the order of page
reclaiming, don't necessarily reflect the access pattern in virtual
memory.  And the different tasks in the system may have different access
patterns, which makes the global space locality estimation incorrect.

In this patch, when page fault occurs, the virtual pages near the fault
address will be readahead instead of the swap slots near the fault swap
slot in swap device.  This avoid to readahead the unrelated swap slots.
At the same time, the swap readahead is changed to work on per-VMA from
globally.  So that the different access patterns of the different VMAs
could be distinguished, and the different readahead policy could be
applied accordingly.  The original core readahead detection and scaling
algorithm is reused, because it is an effect algorithm to detect the
space locality.

The test and result is as follow,

Common test condition
=====================

Test Machine: Xeon E5 v3 (2 sockets, 72 threads, 32G RAM) Swap device:
NVMe disk

Micro-benchmark with combined access pattern
============================================

vm-scalability, sequential swap test case, 4 processes to eat 50G
virtual memory space, repeat the sequential memory writing until 300
seconds.  The first round writing will trigger swap out, the following
rounds will trigger sequential swap in and out.

At the same time, run vm-scalability random swap test case in
background, 8 processes to eat 30G virtual memory space, repeat the
random memory write until 300 seconds.  This will trigger random swap-in
in the background.

This is a combined workload with sequential and random memory accessing
at the same time.  The result (for sequential workload) is as follow,

			Base		Optimized
			----		---------
throughput		345413 KB/s	414029 KB/s (+19.9%)
latency.average		97.14 us	61.06 us (-37.1%)
latency.50th		2 us		1 us
latency.60th		2 us		1 us
latency.70th		98 us		2 us
latency.80th		160 us		2 us
latency.90th		260 us		217 us
latency.95th		346 us		369 us
latency.99th		1.34 ms		1.09 ms
ra_hit%			52.69%		99.98%

The original swap readahead algorithm is confused by the background
random access workload, so readahead hit rate is lower.  The VMA-base
readahead algorithm works much better.

Linpack
=======

The test memory size is bigger than RAM to trigger swapping.

			Base		Optimized
			----		---------
elapsed_time		393.49 s	329.88 s (-16.2%)
ra_hit%			86.21%		98.82%

The score of base and optimized kernel hasn't visible changes.  But the
elapsed time reduced and readahead hit rate improved, so the optimized
kernel runs better for startup and tear down stages.  And the absolute
value of readahead hit rate is high, shows that the space locality is
still valid in some practical workloads.

      mm, THP, swap: make reuse_swap_page() works for THP swapped out · ba3c4ce6
      由 Huang Ying 提交于 
      After supporting to delay THP (Transparent Huge Page) splitting after
swapped out, it is possible that some page table mappings of the THP are
turned into swap entries.  So reuse_swap_page() need to check the swap
count in addition to the map count as before.  This patch done that.

In the huge PMD write protect fault handler, in addition to the page map
count, the swap count need to be checked too, so the page lock need to
be acquired too when calling reuse_swap_page() in addition to the page
table lock.

      mm: always flush VMA ranges affected by zap_page_range · 4647706e
      由 Mel Gorman 提交于 
      Nadav Amit report zap_page_range only specifies that the caller protect
the VMA list but does not specify whether it is held for read or write
with callers using either.  madvise holds mmap_sem for read meaning that
a parallel zap operation can unmap PTEs which are then potentially
skipped by madvise which potentially returns with stale TLB entries
present.  While the API could be extended, it would be a difficult API
to use.  This patch causes zap_page_range() to always consider flushing
the full affected range.  For small ranges or sparsely populated
mappings, this may result in one additional spurious TLB flush.  For
larger ranges, it is possible that the TLB has already been flushed and
the overhead is negligible.  Either way, this approach is safer overall
and avoids stale entries being present when madvise returns.

This can be illustrated with the following program provided by Nadav
Amit and slightly modified.  With the patch applied, it has an exit code
of 0 indicating a stale TLB entry did not leak to userspace.

    • R
      mm: add vm_insert_mixed_mkwrite() · b2770da6
      由 Ross Zwisler 提交于 
      When servicing mmap() reads from file holes the current DAX code
allocates a page cache page of all zeroes and places the struct page
pointer in the mapping->page_tree radix tree.  This has three major
drawbacks:

1) It consumes memory unnecessarily. For every 4k page that is read via
   a DAX mmap() over a hole, we allocate a new page cache page. This
   means that if you read 1GiB worth of pages, you end up using 1GiB of
   zeroed memory.

2) It is slower than using a common zero page because each page fault
   has more work to do. Instead of just inserting a common zero page we
   have to allocate a page cache page, zero it, and then insert it.

3) The fact that we had to check for both DAX exceptional entries and
   for page cache pages in the radix tree made the DAX code more
   complex.

This series solves these issues by following the lead of the DAX PMD
code and using a common 4k zero page instead.  This reduces memory usage
and decreases latencies for some workloads, and it simplifies the DAX
code, removing over 100 lines in total.

This patch (of 5):

To be able to use the common 4k zero page in DAX we need to have our PTE
fault path look more like our PMD fault path where a PTE entry can be
marked as dirty and writeable as it is first inserted rather than
waiting for a follow-up dax_pfn_mkwrite() => finish_mkwrite_fault()
call.

Right now we can rely on having a dax_pfn_mkwrite() call because we can
distinguish between these two cases in do_wp_page():

	case 1: 4k zero page => writable DAX storage
	case 2: read-only DAX storage => writeable DAX storage

This distinction is made by via vm_normal_page().  vm_normal_page()
returns false for the common 4k zero page, though, just as it does for
DAX ptes.  Instead of special casing the DAX + 4k zero page case we will
simplify our DAX PTE page fault sequence so that it matches our DAX PMD
sequence, and get rid of the dax_pfn_mkwrite() helper.  We will instead
use dax_iomap_fault() to handle write-protection faults.

This means that insert_pfn() needs to follow the lead of
insert_pfn_pmd() and allow us to pass in a 'mkwrite' flag.  If 'mkwrite'
is set insert_pfn() will do the work that was previously done by
wp_page_reuse() as part of the dax_pfn_mkwrite() call path.
