      mm: remove likely() from mapping_unevictable() · 088e5465
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      The mapping_unevictable() has a likely() around the mapping parameter.
This mapping parameter comes from page_mapping() which has an unlikely()
that the page will be set as PAGE_MAPPING_ANON, and if so, it will return
NULL.  One would think that this unlikely() means that the mapping
returned by page_mapping() would not be NULL, but where page_mapping() is
used just above mapping_unevictable(), that unlikely() is incorrect most
of the time.  This means that the "likely(mapping)" in
mapping_unevictable() is incorrect most of the time.

Running the annotated branch profiler on my main box which runs firefox,
evolution, xchat and is part of my distcc farm, I had this:

The page_mapping() is a static inline, which is why it shows up multiple
times.  The mapping_unevictable() is also a static inline but seems to be
used only once in my setup.

The unlikely in page_mapping() was correct a total of 1909540379 times and
incorrect 1270533123 times, with a 39% being incorrect.  Perhaps this is
enough to remove the unlikely from page_mapping() as well.

    • M
      mm: retry page fault when blocking on disk transfer · d065bd81
      由 Michel Lespinasse 提交于 
      This change reduces mmap_sem hold times that are caused by waiting for
disk transfers when accessing file mapped VMAs.

It introduces the VM_FAULT_ALLOW_RETRY flag, which indicates that the call
site wants mmap_sem to be released if blocking on a pending disk transfer.
In that case, filemap_fault() returns the VM_FAULT_RETRY status bit and
do_page_fault() will then re-acquire mmap_sem and retry the page fault.

It is expected that the retry will hit the same page which will now be
cached, and thus it will complete with a low mmap_sem hold time.

Tests:

- microbenchmark: thread A mmaps a large file and does random read accesses
  to the mmaped area - achieves about 55 iterations/s. Thread B does
  mmap/munmap in a loop at a separate location - achieves 55 iterations/s
  before, 15000 iterations/s after.

- We are seeing related effects in some applications in house, which show
  significant performance regressions when running without this change.

      hugetlb, rmap: add reverse mapping for hugepage · 0fe6e20b
      由 Naoya Horiguchi 提交于 
      This patch adds reverse mapping feature for hugepage by introducing
mapcount for shared/private-mapped hugepage and anon_vma for
private-mapped hugepage.

While hugepage is not currently swappable, reverse mapping can be useful
for memory error handler.

Without this patch, memory error handler cannot identify processes
using the bad hugepage nor unmap it from them. That is:
- for shared hugepage:
  we can collect processes using a hugepage through pagecache,
  but can not unmap the hugepage because of the lack of mapcount.
- for privately mapped hugepage:
  we can neither collect processes nor unmap the hugepage.
This patch solves these problems.

This patch include the bug fix given by commit 23be7468, so reverts it.

Dependency:
  "hugetlb: move definition of is_vm_hugetlb_page() to hugepage_inline.h"

ChangeLog since May 24.
- create hugetlb_inline.h and move is_vm_hugetlb_index() in it.
- move functions setting up anon_vma for hugepage into mm/rmap.c.

ChangeLog since May 13.
- rebased to 2.6.34
- fix logic error (in case that private mapping and shared mapping coexist)
- move is_vm_hugetlb_page() into include/linux/mm.h to use this function
  from linear_page_index()
- define and use linear_hugepage_index() instead of compound_order()
- use page_move_anon_rmap() in hugetlb_cow()
- copy exclusive switch of __set_page_anon_rmap() into hugepage counterpart.
- revert commit 24be7468 completely

      mm: add new 'read_cache_page_gfp()' helper function · 0531b2aa
      由 Linus Torvalds 提交于 
      It's a simplified 'read_cache_page()' which takes a page allocation
flag, so that different paths can control how aggressive the memory
allocations are that populate a address space.

In particular, the intel GPU object mapping code wants to be able to do
a certain amount of own internal memory management by automatically
shrinking the address space when memory starts getting tight.  This
allows it to dynamically use different memory allocation policies on a
per-allocation basis, rather than depend on the (static) address space
gfp policy.

The actual new function is a one-liner, but re-organizing the helper
functions to the point where you can do this with a single line of code
is what most of the patch is all about.

      rcu: Expunge lingering references to CONFIG_CLASSIC_RCU, optimize on !SMP · b560d8ad
      由 Paul E. McKenney 提交于 
      A couple of references to CONFIG_CLASSIC_RCU have survived.
Although these are harmless, it is past time for them to go.
The one in hardirq.h is strictly a readability problem.

The two in pagemap.h appear to disable a !SMP performance
optimization (which this patch re-enables).

This does raise the issue as to whether pagemap.h should really
be referring to the CPU implementation.  Long term, I intend to
make the RCU implementation driven by CONFIG_PREEMPT, at which
point these should change from defined(CONFIG_TREE_RCU) to
!defined(CONFIG_PREEMPT). In the meantime, is there something
else that could be done in pagemap.h?

      fs: symlink write_begin allocation context fix · 54566b2c
      由 Nick Piggin 提交于 
      With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it
could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the
allocations happened.  They are done in write_begin, which would always
assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim.  This bug could
cause filesystem deadlocks.

The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really
allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be
called.  It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to
take the page lock.  The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS
anyway, so turn that into a single flag.

Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS.  Filesystems can now act on
this flag in their write_begin function.  Change __grab_cache_page to
accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there,
change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive
and does away with random leading underscores).

This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a
filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache
ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than
GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg.  ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a
random example).

      mmu-notifiers: add mm_take_all_locks() operation · 7906d00c
      由 Andrea Arcangeli 提交于 
      mm_take_all_locks holds off reclaim from an entire mm_struct.  This allows
mmu notifiers to register into the mm at any time with the guarantee that
no mmu operation is in progress on the mm.

This operation locks against the VM for all pte/vma/mm related operations
that could ever happen on a certain mm.  This includes vmtruncate,
try_to_unmap, and all page faults.

The caller must take the mmap_sem in write mode before calling
mm_take_all_locks().  The caller isn't allowed to release the mmap_sem
until mm_drop_all_locks() returns.

mmap_sem in write mode is required in order to block all operations that
could modify pagetables and free pages without need of altering the vma
layout (for example populate_range() with nonlinear vmas).  It's also
needed in write mode to avoid new anon_vmas to be associated with existing
vmas.

A single task can't take more than one mm_take_all_locks() in a row or it
would deadlock.

mm_take_all_locks() and mm_drop_all_locks are expensive operations that
may have to take thousand of locks.

mm_take_all_locks() can fail if it's interrupted by signals.

When mmu_notifier_register returns, we must be sure that the driver is
notified if some task is in the middle of a vmtruncate for the 'mm' where
the mmu notifier was registered (mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start/end
is run around the vmtruncation but mmu_notifier_register can run after
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start and before
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end).  Same problem for rmap paths.  And
we've to remove page pinning to avoid replicating the tlb_gather logic
inside KVM (and GRU doesn't work well with page pinning regardless of
needing tlb_gather), so without mm_take_all_locks when vmtruncate frees
the page, kvm would have no way to notice that it mapped into sptes a page
that is going into the freelist without a chance of any further
mmu_notifier notification.

      mm: speculative page references · e286781d
      由 Nick Piggin 提交于 
      If we can be sure that elevating the page_count on a pagecache page will
pin it, we can speculatively run this operation, and subsequently check to
see if we hit the right page rather than relying on holding a lock or
otherwise pinning a reference to the page.

This can be done if get_page/put_page behaves consistently throughout the
whole tree (ie.  if we "get" the page after it has been used for something
else, we must be able to free it with a put_page).

Actually, there is a period where the count behaves differently: when the
page is free or if it is a constituent page of a compound page.  We need
an atomic_inc_not_zero operation to ensure we don't try to grab the page
in either case.

This patch introduces the core locking protocol to the pagecache (ie.
adds page_cache_get_speculative, and tweaks some update-side code to make
it work).

Thanks to Hugh for pointing out an improvement to the algorithm setting
page_count to zero when we have control of all references, in order to
hold off speculative getters.

      mm: fix pagecache write deadlocks · 08291429
      由 Nick Piggin 提交于 
      Modify the core write() code so that it won't take a pagefault while holding a
lock on the pagecache page. There are a number of different deadlocks possible
if we try to do such a thing:

1.  generic_buffered_write
2.   lock_page
3.    prepare_write
4.     unlock_page+vmtruncate
5.     copy_from_user
6.      mmap_sem(r)
7.       handle_mm_fault
8.        lock_page (filemap_nopage)
9.    commit_write
10.  unlock_page

a. sys_munmap / sys_mlock / others
b.  mmap_sem(w)
c.   make_pages_present
d.    get_user_pages
e.     handle_mm_fault
f.      lock_page (filemap_nopage)

2,8	- recursive deadlock if page is same
2,8;2,8	- ABBA deadlock is page is different
2,6;b,f	- ABBA deadlock if page is same

The solution is as follows:
1.  If we find the destination page is uptodate, continue as normal, but use
    atomic usercopies which do not take pagefaults and do not zero the uncopied
    tail of the destination. The destination is already uptodate, so we can
    commit_write the full length even if there was a partial copy: it does not
    matter that the tail was not modified, because if it is dirtied and written
    back to disk it will not cause any problems (uptodate *means* that the
    destination page is as new or newer than the copy on disk).

1a. The above requires that fault_in_pages_readable correctly returns access
    information, because atomic usercopies cannot distinguish between
    non-present pages in a readable mapping, from lack of a readable mapping.

2.  If we find the destination page is non uptodate, unlock it (this could be
    made slightly more optimal), then allocate a temporary page to copy the
    source data into. Relock the destination page and continue with the copy.
    However, instead of a usercopy (which might take a fault), copy the data
    from the pinned temporary page via the kernel address space.

(also, rename maxlen to seglen, because it was confusing)

This increases the CPU/memory copy cost by almost 50% on the affected
workloads. That will be solved by introducing a new set of pagecache write
aops in a subsequent patch.

      lock_page needs the caller to have a reference on the page->mapping inode
due to sync_page, ergo set_page_dirty_lock is obviously buggy according to

Solve it by introducing a new lock_page_nosync which does not do a sync_page.

akpm: unpleasant solution to an unpleasant problem.  If it goes wrong it could
cause great slowdowns while the lock_page() caller waits for kblockd to
perform the unplug.  And if a filesystem has special sync_page() requirements
(none presently do), permanent hangs are possible.

otoh, set_page_dirty_lock() is usually (always?) called against userspace
pages.  They are always up-to-date, so there shouldn't be any pending read I/O
against these pages.

      [PATCH] cpuset memory spread page cache implementation and hooks · 44110fe3
      由 Paul Jackson 提交于 
      Change the page cache allocation calls to support cpuset memory spreading.

See the previous patch, cpuset_mem_spread, for an explanation of cpuset memory
spreading.

On systems without cpusets configured in the kernel, this is no change.

On systems with cpusets configured in the kernel, but the "memory_spread"
cpuset option not enabled for the current tasks cpuset, this adds a call to a
cpuset routine and failed bit test of the processor state flag PF_SPREAD_PAGE.

On tasks in cpusets with "memory_spread" enabled, this adds a call to a cpuset
routine that computes which of the tasks mems_allowed nodes should be
preferred for this allocation.

If memory spreading applies to a particular allocation, then any other NUMA
mempolicy does not apply.
