The global kswapd could set memory node to dirty or writeback if current scan find all pages are unqueued dirty or writeback. Then kswapd would write out dirty pages or wait for writeback done. The memcg kswapd behaves like global kswapd, and it should set dirty or writeback state to memcg too if the same condition is met. Since direct reclaim can't write out page caches, the system depends on kswapd to write out dirty pages if scan finds too many dirty pages in order to avoid pre-mature OOM. But, if page cache is dirtied too fast, writing out pages definitely can't catch up with dirtying pages. It is the responsibility of dirty page balance to throttle dirtying pages.

Since background water mark reclaim is scheduled by workqueue, it could do more work than direct reclaim, i.e. write out dirty page, etc. So, add PF_KSWAPD flag, so that current_is_kswapd() would return true for memcg background reclaim. The condition "current_is_kswapd() && !global_reclaim(sc)" is good enough to tell current is global kswapd or memcg background reclaim. And, kswapd is not allowed to break memory.low protection for now, memcg kswapd should not break it either.

Like v1, add background reclaim support for cgroup v2. The interfaces are exactly same with v1. However, if high limit is setup for v2, the water mark would be calculated by high limit instead of max limit.

Currently when memory usage exceeds memory cgroup limit, memory cgroup just can do sync direct reclaim. This may incur unexpected stall on some applications which are sensitive to latency. Introduce background async page reclaim mechanism, like what kswapd does. Define memcg memory usage water mark by introducing wmark_ratio interface, which is from 0 to 100 and represents percentage of max limit. The wmark_high is calculated by (max * wmark_ratio / 100), the wmark_low is (wmark_high - wmark_high >> 8), which is an empirical value. If wmark_ratio is 0, it means water mark is disabled, both wmark_low and wmark_high is max, which is the default value. If wmark_ratio is setup, when charging page, if usage is greater than wmark_high, which means the available memory of memcg is low, a work would be scheduled to do background page reclaim until memory usage is reduced to wmark_low if possible. Define a dedicated unbound workqueue for scheduling water mark reclaim works.

A performance regression is observed since linux v4.19 when we do aio test using fio with iodepth 128 on overlayfs. And we found that queue depth of the device is always 1 which is unexpected. After investigation, it is found that commit 16914e6f ("ovl: add ovl_read_iter()") and commit 2a92e07e ("ovl: add ovl_write_iter()") use do_iter_readv_writev() to submit requests to real filesystem. Async IOs are converted to sync IOs here and cause performance regression. So implement async IO for stacked reading and writing. Changes since v1: - add a cleanup helper for completion/error handling - handle the case when aio_req allocation failed Signed-off-by: NJiufei Xue <jiufei.xue@linux.alibaba.com> Reviewed-by: NJoseph Qi <joseph.qi@linux.alibaba.com>

commit d256d796279de0bdc227ff4daef565aa7e80c898 upstream. Single thread fio test (read, bs=4k, ioengine=libaio, iodepth=128, numjobs=1) over dm-thin device has poor performance versus bare nvme device. Further investigation with perf indicates that queue_work_on() consumes over 20% CPU time when doing IO over dm-thin device. The call stack is as follows. - 40.57% thin_map + 22.07% queue_work_on + 9.95% dm_thin_find_block + 2.80% cell_defer_no_holder 1.91% inc_all_io_entry.isra.33.part.34 + 1.78% bio_detain.isra.35 In cell_defer_no_holder(), wakeup_worker() is always called, no matter whether the tc->deferred_bio_list list is empty or not. In single thread IO model, this list is most likely empty. So skip waking up worker thread if tc->deferred_bio_list list is empty. Single thread IO performance improves from 448 MiB/s to 646 MiB/s (+44%) once the needless wake_worker() calls are properly skipped.

Currently in blk_throtl_bio(), if one bio exceeds its throtl_grp's bps or iops limit, this bio will be queued throtl_grp's throtl_service_queue, then obviously mm subsys will submit more pages, even underlying device can not handle these io requests, also this will make large amount of pages entering writeback prematurely, later if some process writes some of these pages, it will wait for long time. I have done some tests: one process does buffered writes on a 1GB file, and make this process's blkcg max bps limit be 10MB/s, I observe this: #cat /proc/meminfo | grep -i back Writeback: 900024 kB WritebackTmp: 0 kB I think this Writeback value is just too big, indeed many bios have been queued in throtl_grp's throtl_service_queue, if one process try to write the last bio's page in this queue, it will call wait_on_page_writeback(page), which must wait the previous bios to finish and will take long time, we have also see 120s hung task warning in our server.

After turning off the memcg kmem charging, we still suffer from various zombie memcg problems on production environment because of its non-zero reference count from both page caches and per-memcg writeback related structure(bdi_writeback takes a reference). After we reclaimed all the page caches of the zombie memcg, it still can't be dropped due to its bdi_writeback. bdi_writeback is further referenced by the inodes of files, so the memcg can't be truely released until the inodes are destroyed afterwards which is quite unlikely in short term. When memcg is offlining, change it's bdi_writeback to root, and call css_put to formally release it. We've tested on product environment, it yields pretty good effect. Ditto for wb_blkcg_offline().

The failover of fuse userspace daemon will reuse the existing fuse conn, without unmounting it, during daemon crashing and recovery procedure. But some requests might be in process in the daemon before sending out reply, when the crash happens. This will stuck the application since it will never get the reply after the failover. We add the sysfs api to flush these requests, after the daemon crash, before recovery. It is easy to reproduce the issue in the fuse userspace daemon, just exit after receiving the request and before sending the reply back. The application will hang up in some read/write operation, before echo 1 > /sys/fs/fuse/connection/xxx/flush. The flush operation will make the io fail and return the error to the application.

When jbd2 tries to get write access to one buffer, and if this buffer is under writeback with BH_Shadow flag, jbd2 will wait until this buffer has been written to disk, but sometimes the time taken to wait may be much long, especially disk capacity is almost full. Here add a proc entry "force-copy", if its value is not zero, jbd2 will always do meta buffer copy-cout, then we can eliminate the unnecessary wating time here, and reduce long tail latency for buffered-write. I construct such test case below: $cat offline.fio ; fio-rand-RW.job for fiotest [global] name=fio-rand-RW filename=fio-rand-RW rw=randrw rwmixread=60 rwmixwrite=40 bs=4K direct=0 numjobs=4 time_based=1 runtime=900 [file1] size=60G ioengine=sync iodepth=16 $cat online.fio ; fio-seq-write.job for fiotest [global] name=fio-seq-write filename=fio-seq-write rw=write bs=256K direct=0 numjobs=1 time_based=1 runtime=60 [file1] rate=50m size=10G ioengine=sync iodepth=16 With this patch: $cat /proc/fs/jbd2/sda5-8/force_copy 0 online fio almost always get such long tail latency: Jobs: 1 (f=1), 0B/s-0B/s: [W(1)][100.0%][w=50.0MiB/s][w=200 IOPS][eta 00m:00s] file1: (groupid=0, jobs=1): err= 0: pid=17855: Thu Nov 15 09:45:57 2018 write: IOPS=200, BW=50.0MiB/s (52.4MB/s)(3000MiB/60001msec) clat (usec): min=135, max=4086.6k, avg=867.21, stdev=50338.22 lat (usec): min=139, max=4086.6k, avg=871.16, stdev=50338.22 clat percentiles (usec): | 1.00th=[ 141], 5.00th=[ 143], 10.00th=[ 145], | 20.00th=[ 147], 30.00th=[ 147], 40.00th=[ 149], | 50.00th=[ 149], 60.00th=[ 151], 70.00th=[ 153], | 80.00th=[ 155], 90.00th=[ 159], 95.00th=[ 163], | 99.00th=[ 255], 99.50th=[ 273], 99.90th=[ 429], | 99.95th=[ 441], 99.99th=[3640656] $cat /proc/fs/jbd2/sda5-8/force_copy 1 online fio latency is much better.

In ext4_writepages(), for every iteration, mpage_prepare_extent_to_map() will try to find 2048 pages to map and normally one bio can contain 256 pages at most. If we really found 2048 pages to map, there will be 4 bios and 4 ext4_io_submit() calls which are called both in ext4_writepages() and mpage_map_and_submit_extent(). But note that in mpage_map_and_submit_extent(), we hold a valid jbd2 handle, when dioread_nolock is enabled and extent is unwritten, jbd2 commit thread will wait this handle to finish, so wait the unwritten extent is written to disk, this will introduce unnecessary stall time, especially longer when the writeback operation is io throttled, need to fix this issue. Here for this scene, we accumulate bios in ext4_io_submit's io_bio, and only submit these bios after dropping the jbd2 handle.

/proc/fs/jbd2/${device}/info only shows whole average statistical info about jbd2's life cycle, but it can not show jbd2 info in specified time interval and sometimes this capability is very useful for trouble shooting. For example, we can not see how rs_locked and rs_flushing grows in specified time interval, but these two indexes can explain some reasons for app's behaviours. Here we add a new "stats" proc file like /proc/diskstats, then we can implement a simple tool jbd2_stats which'll display detailed jbd2 info in specified time interval.

commit 169226f7e0d275c1879551f37484ef6683579a5c upstream We have a usecase to use tmpfs as QEMU memory backend and we would like to take the advantage of THP as well. But, our test shows the EPT is not PMD mapped even though the underlying THP are PMD mapped on host. The number showed by /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/largepage is much less than the number of PMD mapped shmem pages as the below: 7f2778200000-7f2878200000 rw-s 00000000 00:14 262232 /dev/shm/qemu_back_mem.mem.Hz2hSf (deleted) Size: 4194304 kB [snip] AnonHugePages: 0 kB ShmemPmdMapped: 579584 kB [snip] Locked: 0 kB cat /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/largepages 12 And some benchmarks do worse than with anonymous THPs. By digging into the code we figured out that commit 127393fb ("mm: thp: kvm: fix memory corruption in KVM with THP enabled") checks if there is a single PTE mapping on the page for anonymous THP when setting up EPT map. But the _mapcount < 0 check doesn't work for page cache THP since every subpage of page cache THP would get _mapcount inc'ed once it is PMD mapped, so PageTransCompoundMap() always returns false for page cache THP. This would prevent KVM from setting up PMD mapped EPT entry. So we need handle page cache THP correctly. However, when page cache THP's PMD gets split, kernel just remove the map instead of setting up PTE map like what anonymous THP does. Before KVM calls get_user_pages() the subpages may get PTE mapped even though it is still a THP since the page cache THP may be mapped by other processes at the mean time. Checking its _mapcount and whether the THP has PTE mapped or not. Although this may report some false negative cases (PTE mapped by other processes), it looks not trivial to make this accurate. With this fix /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/largepage would show reasonable pages are PMD mapped by EPT as the below: 7fbeaee00000-7fbfaee00000 rw-s 00000000 00:14 275464 /dev/shm/qemu_back_mem.mem.SKUvat (deleted) Size: 4194304 kB [snip] AnonHugePages: 0 kB ShmemPmdMapped: 557056 kB [snip] Locked: 0 kB cat /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/largepages 271 And the benchmarks are as same as anonymous THPs.

commit 31e4ca92a7dd4cdebd7fe1456b3b0b6ace9a816f upstream Patch series ""Hotremove" persistent memory", v6. Recently, adding a persistent memory to be used like a regular RAM was added to Linux. This work extends this functionality to also allow hot removing persistent memory. We (Microsoft) have an important use case for this functionality. The requirement is for physical machines with small amount of RAM (~8G) to be able to reboot in a very short period of time (<1s). Yet, there is a userland state that is expensive to recreate (~2G). The solution is to boot machines with 2G preserved for persistent memory. Copy the state, and hotadd the persistent memory so machine still has all 8G available for runtime. Before reboot, offline and hotremove device-dax 2G, copy the memory that is needed to be preserved to pmem0 device, and reboot. The series of operations look like this: 1. After boot restore /dev/pmem0 to ramdisk to be consumed by apps. and free ramdisk. 2. Convert raw pmem0 to devdax ndctl create-namespace --mode devdax --map mem -e namespace0.0 -f 3. Hotadd to System RAM echo dax0.0 > /sys/bus/dax/drivers/device_dax/unbind echo dax0.0 > /sys/bus/dax/drivers/kmem/new_id echo online_movable > /sys/devices/system/memoryXXX/state 4. Before reboot hotremove device-dax memory from System RAM echo offline > /sys/devices/system/memoryXXX/state echo dax0.0 > /sys/bus/dax/drivers/kmem/unbind 5. Create raw pmem0 device ndctl create-namespace --mode raw -e namespace0.0 -f 6. Copy the state that was stored by apps to ramdisk to pmem device 7. Do kexec reboot or reboot through firmware if firmware does not zero memory in pmem0 region (These machines have only regular volatile memory). So to have pmem0 device either memmap kernel parameter is used, or devices nodes in dtb are specified. This patch (of 3): When add_memory() fails, the resource and the memory should be freed.

commit 40cdc60ac16a42eb4e013f84d0e7aa1d6ee060d3 upstream device-dax based devices were missing a 'resource' attribute to indicate the physical address range contributed by the device in question. This information is desirable to userspace tooling that may want to use the dax device as system-ram, and wants to selectively hotplug and online the memory blocks associated with a given device. Without this, the tooling would have to parse /proc/iomem for the memory ranges contributed by dax devices, which can be a workaround, but it is far easier to provide this information in the sysfs hierarchy.

commit 67476656febd7ec5f1fe1aeec3c441fcf53b1e45 upstream This move the dependency to DEV_DAX_PMEM_COMPAT such that only if DEV_DAX_PMEM is built as module we can allow the compat support. This allows to test the new code easily in a emulation setup where we often build things without module support.

commit c221c0b0308fd01d9fb33a16f64d2fd95f8830a4 upstream This is intended for use with NVDIMMs that are physically persistent (physically like flash) so that they can be used as a cost-effective RAM replacement. Intel Optane DC persistent memory is one implementation of this kind of NVDIMM. Currently, a persistent memory region is "owned" by a device driver, either the "Direct DAX" or "Filesystem DAX" drivers. These drivers allow applications to explicitly use persistent memory, generally by being modified to use special, new libraries. (DIMM-based persistent memory hardware/software is described in great detail here: Documentation/nvdimm/nvdimm.txt). However, this limits persistent memory use to applications which *have* been modified. To make it more broadly usable, this driver "hotplugs" memory into the kernel, to be managed and used just like normal RAM would be. To make this work, management software must remove the device from being controlled by the "Device DAX" infrastructure: echo dax0.0 > /sys/bus/dax/drivers/device_dax/unbind and then tell the new driver that it can bind to the device: echo dax0.0 > /sys/bus/dax/drivers/kmem/new_id After this, there will be a number of new memory sections visible in sysfs that can be onlined, or that may get onlined by existing udev-initiated memory hotplug rules. This rebinding procedure is currently a one-way trip. Once memory is bound to "kmem", it's there permanently and can not be unbound and assigned back to device_dax. The kmem driver will never bind to a dax device unless the device is *explicitly* bound to the driver. There are two reasons for this: One, since it is a one-way trip, it can not be undone if bound incorrectly. Two, the kmem driver destroys data on the device. Think of if you had good data on a pmem device. It would be catastrophic if you compile-in "kmem", but leave out the "device_dax" driver. kmem would take over the device and write volatile data all over your good data. This inherits any existing NUMA information for the newly-added memory from the persistent memory device that came from the firmware. On Intel platforms, the firmware has guarantees that require each socket's persistent memory to be in a separate memory-only NUMA node. That means that this patch is not expected to create NUMA nodes, but will simply hotplug memory into existing nodes. Because NUMA nodes are created, the existing NUMA APIs and tools are sufficient to create policies for applications or memory areas to have affinity for or an aversion to using this memory. There is currently some metadata at the beginning of pmem regions. The section-size memory hotplug restrictions, plus this small reserved area can cause the "loss" of a section or two of capacity. This should be fixable in follow-on patches. But, as a first step, losing 256MB of memory (worst case) out of hundreds of gigabytes is a good tradeoff vs. the required code to fix this up precisely. This calculation is also the reason we export memory_block_size_bytes().

commit 2b539aefe9e48e3908cff02699aa63a8b9bd268e upstream In the process of onlining memory, we use walk_system_ram_range() to find the actual RAM areas inside of the area being onlined. However, it currently only finds memory resources which are "top-level" iomem_resources. Children are not currently searched which causes it to skip System RAM in areas like this (in the format of /proc/iomem): a0000000-bfffffff : Persistent Memory (legacy) a0000000-afffffff : System RAM Changing the true->false here allows children to be searched as well. We need this because we add a new "System RAM" resource underneath the "persistent memory" resource when we use persistent memory in a volatile mode.
