Patch series "mm/swap: Regular page swap optimizations", v5.

Times have changed.  Coming generation of Solid state Block device
latencies are getting down to sub 100 usec, which is within an order of
magnitude of DRAM, and their performance is orders of magnitude higher
than the single- spindle rotational media we've swapped to historically.

This could benefit many usage scenearios.  For example cloud providers
who overcommit their memory (as VM don't use all the memory
provisioned).  Having a fast swap will allow them to be more aggressive
in memory overcommit and fit more VMs to a platform.

In our testing [see footnote], the median latency that the kernel adds
to a page fault is 15 usec, which comes quite close to the amount that
will be contributed by the underlying I/O devices.

The software latency comes mostly from contentions on the locks
protecting the radix tree of the swap cache and also the locks
protecting the individual swap devices.  The lock contentions already
consumed 35% of cpu cycles in our test.  In the very near future,
software latency will become the bottleneck to swap performnace as block
device I/O latency gets within the shouting distance of DRAM speed.

This patch set, reduced the median page fault latency from 15 usec to 4
usec (375% reduction) for DRAM based pmem block device.

This patch (of 9):

swap_info_get() is used not only in swap free code path but also in
page_swapcount(), etc.  So the original kernel message in swap_info_get()
is not correct now.  Fix it via replacing "swap_free" to "swap_info_get"
in the message.

On 32-bit powerpc the ELF PLT sections of binaries (built with
--bss-plt, or with a toolchain which defaults to it) look like this:

  [17] .sbss             NOBITS          0002aff8 01aff8 000014 00  WA  0   0  4
  [18] .plt              NOBITS          0002b00c 01aff8 000084 00 WAX  0   0  4
  [19] .bss              NOBITS          0002b090 01aff8 0000a4 00  WA  0   0  4

Which results in an ELF load header:

  Type           Offset   VirtAddr   PhysAddr   FileSiz MemSiz  Flg Align
  LOAD           0x019c70 0x00029c70 0x00029c70 0x01388 0x014c4 RWE 0x10000

This is all correct, the load region containing the PLT is marked as
executable.  Note that the PLT starts at 0002b00c but the file mapping
ends at 0002aff8, so the PLT falls in the 0 fill section described by
the load header, and after a page boundary.

Unfortunately the generic ELF loader ignores the X bit in the load
headers when it creates the 0 filled non-file backed mappings.  It
assumes all of these mappings are RW BSS sections, which is not the case
for PPC.

gcc/ld has an option (--secure-plt) to not do this, this is said to
incur a small performance penalty.

Currently, to support 32-bit binaries with PLT in BSS kernel maps
*entire brk area* with executable rights for all binaries, even
--secure-plt ones.

Stop doing that.

Teach the ELF loader to check the X bit in the relevant load header and
create 0 filled anonymous mappings that are executable if the load
header requests that.

Test program showing the difference in /proc/$PID/maps:

int main() {
	char buf[16*1024];
	char *p = malloc(123); /* make "[heap]" mapping appear */
	int fd = open("/proc/self/maps", O_RDONLY);
	int len = read(fd, buf, sizeof(buf));
	write(1, buf, len);
	printf("%p\n", p);
	return 0;
}

To identify that pages of page table are allocated from bootmem
allocator, magic number sets to page->lru.next.

But page->lru list is initialized in reserve_bootmem_region().  So when
calling free_pagetable(), the function cannot find the magic number of
pages.  And free_pagetable() frees the pages by free_reserved_page() not
put_page_bootmem().

But if the pages are allocated from bootmem allocator and used as page
table, the pages have private flag.  So before freeing the pages, we
should clear the private flag by put_page_bootmem().

Before applying the commit 7bfec6f4 ("mm, page_alloc: check multiple
page fields with a single branch"), we could find the following visible
issue:

  BUG: Bad page state in process kworker/u1024:1
  page:ffffea103cfd8040 count:0 mapcount:0 mappi
  flags: 0x6fffff80000800(private)

  [...] worker_thread+0x125/0x4b0
  [...] kthread+0xd8/0xf0
  [...] ret_from_fork+0x22/0x40

And the issue still silently occurs.

Until freeing the pages of page table allocated from bootmem allocator,
the page->freelist is never used.  So the patch sets magic number to
page->freelist instead of page->lru.next.

free_map_bootmem() uses page->private directly to set
removing_section_nr argument.  But to get page->private value,
page_private() has been prepared.

So free_map_bootmem() should use page_private() instead of
page->private.

memblock_reserve() would add a new range to memblock.reserved in case
the new range is not totally covered by any of the current
memblock.reserved range.  If the memblock.reserved is full and can't
resize, memblock_reserve() would fail.

This doesn't happen in real world now, I observed this during code
review.  While theoretically, it has the chance to happen.  And if it
happens, others would think this range of memory is still available and
may corrupt the memory.

This patch checks the return value and goto "done" after it succeeds.

memblock_is_region_memory() invoke memblock_search() to see whether the
base address is in the memory region.  If it fails, idx would be -1.
Then, it returns 0.

If the memblock_search() returns a valid index, it means the base
address is guaranteed to be in the range memblock.memory.regions[idx].
Because of this, it is not necessary to check the base again.

This patch removes the check on "base".

Without a memory barrier, the following race can occur with a high-order
allocation:

wakeup_kcompactd(order == 1)  		     kcompactd()
  [L] waitqueue_active(kcompactd_wait)
						[S] prepare_to_wait_event(kcompactd_wait)
						[L] (kcompactd_max_order == 0)
  [S] kcompactd_max_order = order;		      schedule()

Where the waitqueue_active() check is speculatively re-ordered to before
setting the actual condition (max_order), not seeing the threads that's
going to block; making us miss a wakeup.  There are a couple of options
to fix this, including calling wq_has_sleepers() which adds a full
barrier, or unconditionally doing the wake_up_interruptible() and
serialize on the q->lock.  However, to make use of the control
dependency, we just need to add L->L guarantees.

While this bug is theoretical, there have been other offenders of the
lockless waitqueue_active() in the past -- this is also documented in
the call itself.

When using a sparse memory model memmap_init_zone() when invoked with
the MEMMAP_EARLY context will skip over pages which aren't valid - ie.
which aren't in a populated region of the sparse memory map.  However if
the memory map is extremely sparse then it can spend a long time
linearly checking each PFN in a large non-populated region of the memory
map & skipping it in turn.

When CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP is enabled, we have sufficient
information to quickly discover the next valid PFN given an invalid one
by searching through the list of memory regions & skipping forwards to
the first PFN covered by the memory region to the right of the
non-populated region.  Implement this in order to speed up
memmap_init_zone() for systems with extremely sparse memory maps.

James said "I have tested this patch on a virtual model of a Samurai CPU
with a sparse memory map.  The kernel boot time drops from 109 to
62 seconds. "

A "compact_daemon_wake" vmstat exists that represents the number of
times kcompactd has woken up.  This doesn't represent how much work it
actually did, though.

It's useful to understand how much compaction work is being done by
kcompactd versus other methods such as direct compaction and explicitly
triggered per-node (or system) compaction.

This adds two new vmstats: "compact_daemon_migrate_scanned" and
"compact_daemon_free_scanned" to represent the number of pages kcompactd
has scanned as part of its migration scanner and freeing scanner,
respectively.

These values are still accounted for in the general
"compact_migrate_scanned" and "compact_free_scanned" for compatibility.

It could be argued that explicitly triggered compaction could also be
tracked separately, and that could be added if others find it useful.

Commit 682a3385 ("mm, page_alloc: inline the fast path of the
zonelist iterator") changed how next_zones_zonelist() is called, by
adding a static inline function to do the fast path.  This function
adds:

       if (likely(!nodes && zonelist_zone_idx(z) <= highest_zoneidx))
               return z;
       return __next_zones_zonelist(z, highest_zoneidx, nodes);

Where __next_zones_zonelist() is only called when nodes is not NULL or
zonelist_zone_idx(z) is less than highest_zoneidx.

The original next_zone_zonelist() was converted to __next_zones_zonelist()
but it still maintained:

	if (likely(nodes == NULL))

Which is now actually a very unlikely, as it is only called with nodes
equal to NULL when zonelist_zone_idx(z) is greater than highest_zoneidx.

Before this commit, this if had this statistic:

 correct incorrect  %        Function                  File              Line
 ------- ---------  -        --------                  ----              ----
  837895   446078  34 next_zones_zonelist            mmzone.c             63

After this commit, it has:

 correct incorrect  %        Function                  File              Line
 ------- ---------  -        --------                  ----              ----
      10   173840  99 __next_zones_zonelist          mmzone.c             63

Thus, the if statement is now much more unlikely than it ever was as a
likely.

Currently we have tracepoints for both active and inactive LRU lists
reclaim but we do not have any which would tell us why we we decided to
age the active list.  Without that it is quite hard to diagnose
active/inactive lists balancing.  Add mm_vmscan_inactive_list_is_low
tracepoint to tell us this information.

mm_vmscan_lru_shrink_inactive will currently report the number of
scanned and reclaimed pages.  This doesn't give us an idea how the
reclaim went except for the overall effectiveness though.  Export and
show other counters which will tell us why we couldn't reclaim some
pages.

	- nr_dirty, nr_writeback, nr_congested and nr_immediate tells
	  us how many pages are blocked due to IO
	- nr_activate tells us how many pages were moved to the active
	  list
	- nr_ref_keep reports how many pages are kept on the LRU due
	  to references (mostly for the file pages which are about to
	  go for another round through the inactive list)
	- nr_unmap_fail - how many pages failed to unmap

All these are rather low level so they might change in future but the
tracepoint is already implementation specific so no tools should be
depending on its stability.

shrink_page_list returns quite some counters back to its caller.
Extract the existing 5 into struct reclaim_stat because this makes the
code easier to follow and also allows further counters to be returned.

While we are at it, make all of them unsigned rather than unsigned long
as we do not really need full 64b for them (we never scan more than
SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pages at once).  This should reduce some stack space.

This patch shouldn't introduce any functional change.

mm_vmscan_lru_isolate currently prints only whether the LRU we isolate
from is file or anonymous but we do not know which LRU this is.

It is useful to know whether the list is active or inactive, since we
are using the same function to isolate pages from both of them and it's
hard to distinguish otherwise.

mm_vmscan_lru_isolate shows the number of requested, scanned and taken
pages.  This is mostly OK but on 32b systems the number of scanned pages
is quite misleading because it includes both the scanned and skipped
pages.  Moreover the skipped part is scaled based on the number of taken
pages.  Let's report the exact numbers without any additional logic and
add the number of skipped pages.

This should make the reported data much more easier to interpret.

Our reclaim process has several tracepoints to tell us more about how
things are progressing.  We are, however, missing a tracepoint to track
active list aging.  Introduce mm_vmscan_lru_shrink_active which reports
the number of

	- nr_taken is number of isolated pages from the active list
	- nr_referenced pages which tells us that we are hitting referenced
	  pages which are deactivated. If this is a large part of the
	  reported nr_deactivated pages then we might be hitting into
	  the active list too early because they might be still part of
	  the working set. This might help to debug performance issues.
	- nr_active pages which tells us how many pages are kept on the
	  active list - mostly exec file backed pages. A high number can
	  indicate that we might be trashing on executables.

Patch series "vm, vmscan: enahance vmscan tracepoints", v2.

While debugging [2] I've realized that there is some room for
improvements in the tracepoints set we offer currently.  I had hard
times to make any conclusion from the existing ones.  The resulting
problem turned out to be active list aging [3] and we are missing at
least two tracepoints to debug such a problem.

Some existing tracepoints could export more information to see _why_ the
reclaim progress cannot be made not only _how much_ we could reclaim.
The later could be seen quite reasonably from the vmstat counters
already.  It can be argued that we are showing too many implementation
details in those tracepoints but I consider them way too lowlevel
already to be usable by any kernel independent userspace.  I would be
_really_ surprised if anything but debugging tools have used them.

Any feedback is highly appreciated.

pmd_trans_unstable does an atomic read on the pmd so it doesn't require
the pmd_lock for the same check.

This also removes the special assumption that the mmap_sem is hold for
writing if prot_numa is not set.  userfaultfd will hold the mmap_sem
only for reading in change_pte_range like prot_numa, but it will not set
prot_numa.

This is always a valid micro-optimization regardless of userfaultfd.

When userfaultfd hugetlbfs support was originally added, it followed the
pattern of anon mappings and did not support any vmas marked VM_SHARED.
As such, support was only added for private mappings.

Remove this limitation and support shared mappings.  The primary
functional change required is adding pages to the page cache.  More subtle
changes are required for huge page reservation handling in error paths.  A
lengthy comment in the code describes the reservation handling.

Currently userfault relies on vma_is_anonymous and vma_is_hugetlb to
ensure compatibility of a VMA with userfault.  Introduction of
vma_is_shmem allows detection if tmpfs backed VMAs, so that they may be
used with userfaultfd.  Current implementation presumes usage of
vma_is_shmem only by slow path routines in userfaultfd, therefore the
vma_is_shmem is not made inline to leave the few remaining free bits in
vm_flags.

shmem_mcopy_atomic_pte is the low level routine that implements the
userfaultfd UFFDIO_COPY command.  It is based on the existing
mcopy_atomic_pte routine with modifications for shared memory pages.
