With b8668fd0 "s390/uapi: change struct statfs[64] member types to unsigned values" the size of a couple of struct statfs64 member got incorrectly changed from 64 to 32 bit for 32 bit builds. Fix this by changing the type of couple of struct statfs64 members from unsigned long to unsigned long long. The definition of struct compat_statfs64 was correct however.

If get_fs() == USER_DS we better test if current->mm is not zero before walking page tables. The page table walk code would try to lock mm->page_table_lock, however if mm is zero this might crash. Now it is arguably incorrect trying to access userspace if current->mm is zero, however we have seen that and s390 would be the only architecture which would crash in such a case. So we better make the page table walk code a bit more robust and report always a fault instead.

由 Vlastimil Babka 提交于
Compaction used to start its migrate and free page scaners at the zone's lowest and highest pfn, respectively. Later, caching was introduced to remember the scanners' progress across compaction attempts so that pageblocks are not re-scanned uselessly. Additionally, pageblocks where isolation failed are marked to be quickly skipped when encountered again in future compactions. Currently, both the reset of cached pfn's and clearing of the pageblock skip information for a zone is done in __reset_isolation_suitable(). This function gets called when: - compaction is restarting after being deferred - compact_blockskip_flush flag is set in compact_finished() when the scanners meet (and not again cleared when direct compaction succeeds in allocation) and kswapd acts upon this flag before going to sleep This behavior is suboptimal for several reasons: - when direct sync compaction is called after async compaction fails (in the allocation slowpath), it will effectively do nothing, unless kswapd happens to process the compact_blockskip_flush flag meanwhile. This is racy and goes against the purpose of sync compaction to more thoroughly retry the compaction of a zone where async compaction has failed. The restart-after-deferring path cannot help here as deferring happens only after the sync compaction fails. It is also done only for the preferred zone, while the compaction might be done for a fallback zone. - the mechanism of marking pageblock to be skipped has little value since the cached pfn's are reset only together with the pageblock skip flags. This effectively limits pageblock skip usage to parallel compactions. This patch changes compact_finished() so that cached pfn's are reset immediately when the scanners meet. Clearing pageblock skip flags is unchanged, as well as the other situations where cached pfn's are reset. This allows the sync-after-async compaction to retry pageblocks not marked as skipped, such as blocks !MIGRATE_MOVABLE blocks that async compactions now skips without marking them.

由 Vlastimil Babka 提交于
Compaction temporarily marks pageblocks where it fails to isolate pages as to-be-skipped in further compactions, in order to improve efficiency. One of the reasons to fail isolating pages is that isolation is not attempted in pageblocks that are not of MIGRATE_MOVABLE (or CMA) type. The problem is that blocks skipped due to not being MIGRATE_MOVABLE in async compaction become skipped due to the temporary mark also in future sync compaction. Moreover, this may follow quite soon during __alloc_page_slowpath, without much time for kswapd to clear the pageblock skip marks. This goes against the idea that sync compaction should try to scan these blocks more thoroughly than the async compaction. The fix is to ensure in async compaction that these !MIGRATE_MOVABLE blocks are not marked to be skipped. Note this should not affect performance or locking impact of further async compactions, as skipping a block due to being !MIGRATE_MOVABLE is done soon after skipping a block marked to be skipped, both without locking.

由 Vlastimil Babka 提交于
Compaction of a zone is finished when the migrate scanner (which begins at the zone's lowest pfn) meets the free page scanner (which begins at the zone's highest pfn). This is detected in compact_zone() and in the case of direct compaction, the compact_blockskip_flush flag is set so that kswapd later resets the cached scanner pfn's, and a new compaction may again start at the zone's borders. The meeting of the scanners can happen during either scanner's activity. However, it may currently fail to be detected when it occurs in the free page scanner, due to two problems. First, isolate_freepages() keeps free_pfn at the highest block where it isolated pages from, for the purposes of not missing the pages that are returned back to allocator when migration fails. Second, failing to isolate enough free pages due to scanners meeting results in -ENOMEM being returned by migrate_pages(), which makes compact_zone() bail out immediately without calling compact_finished() that would detect scanners meeting. This failure to detect scanners meeting might result in repeated attempts at compaction of a zone that keep starting from the cached pfn's close to the meeting point, and quickly failing through the -ENOMEM path, without the cached pfns being reset, over and over. This has been observed (through additional tracepoints) in the third phase of the mmtests stress-highalloc benchmark, where the allocator runs on an otherwise idle system. The problem was observed in the DMA32 zone, which was used as a fallback to the preferred Normal zone, but on the 4GB system it was actually the largest zone. The problem is even amplified for such fallback zone - the deferred compaction logic, which could (after being fixed by a previous patch) reset the cached scanner pfn's, is only applied to the preferred zone and not for the fallbacks. The problem in the third phase of the benchmark was further amplified by commit 81c0a2bb ("mm: page_alloc: fair zone allocator policy") which resulted in a non-deterministic regression of the allocation success rate from ~85% to ~65%. This occurs in about half of benchmark runs, making bisection problematic. It is unlikely that the commit itself is buggy, but it should put more pressure on the DMA32 zone during phases 1 and 2, which may leave it more fragmented in phase 3 and expose the bugs that this patch fixes. The fix is to make scanners meeting in isolate_freepage() stay that way, and to check in compact_zone() for scanners meeting when migrate_pages() returns -ENOMEM. The result is that compact_finished() also detects scanners meeting and sets the compact_blockskip_flush flag to make kswapd reset the scanner pfn's. The results in stress-highalloc benchmark show that the "regression" by commit 81c0a2bb in phase 3 no longer occurs, and phase 1 and 2 allocation success rates are also significantly improved.

Compaction caches pfn's for its migrate and free scanners to avoid scanning the whole zone each time. In compact_zone(), the cached values are read to set up initial values for the scanners. There are several situations when these cached pfn's are reset to the first and last pfn of the zone, respectively. One of these situations is when a compaction has been deferred for a zone and is now being restarted during a direct compaction, which is also done in compact_zone(). However, compact_zone() currently reads the cached pfn's *before* resetting them. This means the reset doesn't affect the compaction that performs it, and with good chance also subsequent compactions, as update_pageblock_skip() is likely to be called and update the cached pfn's to those being processed. Another chance for a successful reset is when a direct compaction detects that migration and free scanners meet (which has its own problems addressed by another patch) and sets update_pageblock_skip flag which kswapd uses to do the reset because it goes to sleep. This is clearly a bug that results in non-deterministic behavior, so this patch moves the cached pfn reset to be performed *before* the values are read.

Currently there are several functions to manipulate the deferred compaction state variables. The remaining case where the variables are touched directly is when a successful allocation occurs in direct compaction, or is expected to be successful in the future by kswapd. Here, the lowest order that is expected to fail is updated, and in the case of successful allocation, the deferred status and counter is reset completely. Create a new function compaction_defer_reset() to encapsulate this functionality and make it easier to understand the code. No functional change.

The original objective was to reintroduce capturing of high-order pages freed by the compaction, before they are split by concurrent activity. However, several bugs and opportunities for simple improvements were found in the current implementation, mostly through extra tracepoints (which are however too ugly for now to be considered for sending). The patches mostly deal with two mechanisms that reduce compaction overhead, which is caching the progress of migrate and free scanners, and marking pageblocks where isolation failed to be skipped during further scans. Patch 1 (from mgorman) adds tracepoints that allow calculate time spent in compaction and potentially debug scanner pfn values. Patch 2 encapsulates the some functionality for handling deferred compactions for better maintainability, without a functional change type is not determined without being actually needed. Patch 3 fixes a bug where cached scanner pfn's are sometimes reset only after they have been read to initialize a compaction run. Patch 4 fixes a bug where scanners meeting is sometimes not properly detected and can lead to multiple compaction attempts quitting early without doing any work. Patch 5 improves the chances of sync compaction to process pageblocks that async compaction has skipped due to being !MIGRATE_MOVABLE. Patch 6 improves the chances of sync direct compaction to actually do anything when called after async compaction fails during allocation slowpath. The impact of patches were validated using mmtests's stress-highalloc benchmark with mmtests's stress-highalloc benchmark on a x86_64 machine with 4GB memory. Due to instability of the results (mostly related to the bugs fixed by patches 2 and 3), 10 iterations were performed, taking min,mean,max values for success rates and mean values for time and vmstat-based metrics. First, the default GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE allocations were tested with the patches stacked on top of v3.13-rc2. Patch 2 is OK to serve as baseline due to no functional changes in 1 and 2.

I used to get stable values around 85% with vanilla 3.11. The lower min and mean values came with 3.12. This was bisected to commit 81c0a2bb ("mm: page_alloc: fair zone allocator policy") As explained in comment for patch 3, I don't think the commit is wrong, but that it makes the effect of compaction bugs worse. From patch 3 onwards, the results are OK and match the 3.11 results. - Patch 4 also clearly helps phases 1 and 2, and exceeds any results I've seen with 3.11 (I didn't measure it that thoroughly then, but it was never above 40%). - Compaction cost and number of scanned pages is higher, especially due to patch 4. However, keep in mind that patches 3 and 4 fix existing bugs in the current design of compaction overhead mitigation, they do not change it. If overhead is found unacceptable, then it should be decreased differently (and consistently, not due to random conditions) than the current implementation does. In contrast, patches 5 and 6 (which are not strictly bug fixes) do not increase the overhead (but also not success rates). This might be a limitation of the stress-highalloc benchmark as it's quite uniform. Another set of results is when configuring stress-highalloc t allocate with similar flags as THP uses: (GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE|__GFP_NOMEMALLOC|__GFP_NORETRY|__GFP_NO_KSWAPD) stress-highalloc 3.13-rc2 3.13-rc2 3.13-rc2 3.13-rc2 3.13-rc2 2-thp 3-thp 4-thp 5-thp 6-thp Success 1 Min 2.00 ( 0.00%) 7.00 (-250.00%) 18.00 (-800.00%) 19.00 (-850.00%) 26.00 (-1200.00%) Success 1 Mean 19.20 ( 0.00%) 17.80 ( 7.29%) 29.20 (-52.08%) 29.90 (-55.73%) 32.80 (-70.83%) Success 1 Max 27.00 ( 0.00%) 29.00 ( -7.41%) 35.00 (-29.63%) 36.00 (-33.33%) 37.00 (-37.04%) Success 2 Min 3.00 ( 0.00%) 8.00 (-166.67%) 21.00 (-600.00%) 21.00 (-600.00%) 32.00 (-966.67%) Success 2 Mean 19.30 ( 0.00%) 17.90 ( 7.25%) 32.20 (-66.84%) 32.60 (-68.91%) 35.70 (-84.97%) Success 2 Max 27.00 ( 0.00%) 30.00 (-11.11%) 36.00 (-33.33%) 37.00 (-37.04%) 39.00 (-44.44%) Success 3 Min 62.00 ( 0.00%) 62.00 ( 0.00%) 85.00 (-37.10%) 75.00 (-20.97%) 64.00 ( -3.23%) Success 3 Mean 66.30 ( 0.00%) 65.50 ( 1.21%) 85.60 (-29.11%) 83.40 (-25.79%) 83.50 (-25.94%) Success 3 Max 70.00 ( 0.00%) 69.00 ( 1.43%) 87.00 (-24.29%) 86.00 (-22.86%) 87.00 (-24.29%) 3.13-rc2 3.13-rc2 3.13-rc2 3.13-rc2 3.13-rc2 2-thp 3-thp 4-thp 5-thp 6-thp User 6547.93 6475.85 6265.54 6289.46 6189.96 System 1053.42 1047.28 1043.23 1042.73 1038.73 Elapsed 1835.43 1821.96 1908.67 1912.74 1956.38 3.13-rc2 3.13-rc2 3.13-rc2 3.13-rc2 3.13-rc2 2-thp 3-thp 4-thp 5-thp 6-thp Minor Faults 256805673 253106328 253222299 249830289 251184418 Major Faults 395 375 423 434 448 Swap Ins 12 10 10 12 9 Swap Outs 530 537 487 455 415 Direct pages scanned 71859 86046 153244 152764 190713 Kswapd pages scanned 1900994 1870240 1898012 1892864 1880520 Kswapd pages reclaimed 1897814 1867428 1894939 1890125 1877924 Direct pages reclaimed 71766 85908 153167 152643 190600 Kswapd efficiency 99% 99% 99% 99% 99% Kswapd velocity 1029.000 1067.782 1000.091 991.049 951.218 Direct efficiency 99% 99% 99% 99% 99% Direct velocity 38.897 49.127 80.747 79.983 96.468 Percentage direct scans 3% 4% 7% 7% 9% Zone normal velocity 351.377 372.494 348.910 341.689 335.310 Zone dma32 velocity 716.520 744.414 731.928 729.343 712.377 Zone dma velocity 0.000 0.000 0.000 0.000 0.000 Page writes by reclaim 669.300 604.000 545.700 538.900 429.900 Page writes file 138 66 58 83 14 Page writes anon 530 537 487 455 415 Page reclaim immediate 806 655 772 548 517 Sector Reads 2711956 2703239 2811602 2818248 2839459 Sector Writes 12163238 12018662 12038248 11954736 11994892 Page rescued immediate 0 0 0 0 0 Slabs scanned 1385088 1388364 1507968 1513292 1558656 Direct inode steals 1739 2564 4622 5496 6007 Kswapd inode steals 47461 46406 47804 48013 48466 Kswapd skipped wait 0 0 0 0 0 THP fault alloc 110 82 84 69 70 THP collapse alloc 445 482 467 462 539 THP splits 6 5 4 5 3 THP fault fallback 3 0 0 0 0 THP collapse fail 15 14 14 14 13 Compaction stalls 659 685 1033 1073 1111 Compaction success 222 225 410 427 456 Compaction failures 436 460 622 646 655 Page migrate success 446594 439978 1085640 1095062 1131716 Page migrate failure 0 0 0 0 0 Compaction pages isolated 1029475 1013490 2453074 2482698 2565400 Compaction migrate scanned 9955461 11344259 24375202 27978356 30494204 Compaction free scanned 27715272 28544654 80150615 82898631 85756132 Compaction cost 552 555 1344 1379 1436 NUMA PTE updates 0 0 0 0 0 NUMA hint faults 0 0 0 0 0 NUMA hint local faults 0 0 0 0 0 NUMA hint local percent 100 100 100 100 100 NUMA pages migrated 0 0 0 0 0 AutoNUMA cost 0 0 0 0 0 There are some differences from the previous results for THP-like allocations: - Here, the bad result for unpatched kernel in phase 3 is much more consistent to be between 65-70% and not related to the "regression" in 3.12. Still there is the improvement from patch 4 onwards, which brings it on par with simple GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE allocations. - Compaction costs have increased, but nowhere near as much as the non-THP case. Again, the patches should be worth the gained determininsm. - Patches 5 and 6 somewhat increase the number of migrate-scanned pages. This is most likely due to __GFP_NO_KSWAPD flag, which means the cached pfn's and pageblock skip bits are not reset by kswapd that often (at least in phase 3 where no concurrent activity would wake up kswapd) and the patches thus help the sync-after-async compaction. It doesn't however show that the sync compaction would help so much with success rates, which can be again seen as a limitation of the benchmark scenario. This patch (of 6): Add two tracepoints for compaction begin and end of a zone. Using this it is possible to calculate how much time a workload is spending within compaction and potentially debug problems related to cached pfns for scanning. In combination with the direct reclaim and slab trace points it should be possible to estimate most allocation-related overhead for a workload.

mem_cgroup_print_oom_info uses a static buffer (memcg_name) to store the name of the cgroup. This is not safe as pointed out by David Rientjes because memcg oom is locked only for its hierarchy and nothing prevents another parallel hierarchy to trigger oom as well and overwrite the already in-use buffer. This patch introduces oom_info_lock hidden inside mem_cgroup_print_oom_info which is held throughout the function. It makes access to memcg_name safe and as a bonus it also prevents parallel memcg ooms to interleave their statistics which would make the printed data hard to analyze otherwise.

This patch adds three tracepoints o trace_sched_move_numa when a task is moved to a node o trace_sched_swap_numa when a task is swapped with another task o trace_sched_stick_numa when a numa-related migration fails The tracepoints allow the NUMA scheduler activity to be monitored and the following high-level metrics can be calculated o NUMA migrated stuck nr trace_sched_stick_numa o NUMA migrated idle nr trace_sched_move_numa o NUMA migrated swapped nr trace_sched_swap_numa o NUMA local swapped trace_sched_swap_numa src_nid == dst_nid (should never happen) o NUMA remote swapped trace_sched_swap_numa src_nid != dst_nid (should == NUMA migrated swapped) o NUMA group swapped trace_sched_swap_numa src_ngid == dst_ngid Maybe a small number of these are acceptable but a high number would be a major surprise. It would be even worse if bounces are frequent. o NUMA avg task migs. Average number of migrations for tasks o NUMA stddev task mig Self-explanatory o NUMA max task migs. Maximum number of migrations for a single task In general the intent of the tracepoints is to help diagnose problems where automatic NUMA balancing appears to be doing an excessive amount of useless work.
