    • V
      mm, thp: tweak reclaim/compaction effort of local-only and all-node allocations · cc638f32
      由 Vlastimil Babka 提交于 
      THP page faults now attempt a __GFP_THISNODE allocation first, which
should only compact existing free memory, followed by another attempt
that can allocate from any node using reclaim/compaction effort
specified by global defrag setting and madvise.

This patch makes the following changes to the scheme:

 - Before the patch, the first allocation relies on a check for
   pageblock order and __GFP_IO to prevent excessive reclaim. This
   however affects also the second attempt, which is not limited to
   single node.

   Instead of that, reuse the existing check for costly order
   __GFP_NORETRY allocations, and make sure the first THP attempt uses
   __GFP_NORETRY. As a side-effect, all costly order __GFP_NORETRY
   allocations will bail out if compaction needs reclaim, while
   previously they only bailed out when compaction was deferred due to
   previous failures.

   This should be still acceptable within the __GFP_NORETRY semantics.

 - Before the patch, the second allocation attempt (on all nodes) was
   passing __GFP_NORETRY. This is redundant as the check for pageblock
   order (discussed above) was stronger. It's also contrary to
   madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) which means some effort to allocate THP is
   requested.

   After this patch, the second attempt doesn't pass __GFP_THISNODE nor
   __GFP_NORETRY.

To sum up, THP page faults now try the following attempts:

1. local node only THP allocation with no reclaim, just compaction.
2. for madvised VMA's or when synchronous compaction is enabled always - THP
   allocation from any node with effort determined by global defrag setting
   and VMA madvise
3. fallback to base pages on any node

      mm/mempolicy.c: fix checking unmapped holes for mbind · f18da660
      由 Li Xinhai 提交于 
      mbind() is required to report EFAULT if range, specified by addr and
len, contains unmapped holes.  In current implementation, below rules
are applied for this checking:

 1: Unmapped holes at any part of the specified range should be reported
    as EFAULT if mbind() for none MPOL_DEFAULT cases;

 2: Unmapped holes at any part of the specified range should be ignored
    (do not reprot EFAULT) if mbind() for MPOL_DEFAULT case;

 3: The whole range in an unmapped hole should be reported as EFAULT;

Note that rule 2 does not fullfill the mbind() API definition, but since
that behavior has existed for long days (the internal flag
MPOL_MF_DISCONTIG_OK is for this purpose), this patch does not plan to
change it.

In current code, application observed inconsistent behavior on rule 1
and rule 2 respectively.  That inconsistency is fixed as below details.

Cases of rule 1:

 - Hole at head side of range. Current code reprot EFAULT, no change by
   this patch.

    [  vma  ][ hole ][  vma  ]
                [  range  ]

 - Hole at middle of range. Current code report EFAULT, no change by
   this patch.

    [  vma  ][ hole ][ vma ]
       [     range      ]

 - Hole at tail side of range. Current code do not report EFAULT, this
   patch fixes it.

    [  vma  ][ hole ][ vma ]
       [  range  ]

Cases of rule 2:

 - Hole at head side of range. Current code reports EFAULT, this patch
   fixes it.

    [  vma  ][ hole ][  vma  ]
                [  range  ]

 - Hole at middle of range. Current code does not report EFAULT, no
   change by this patch.

    [  vma  ][ hole ][ vma]
       [     range      ]

 - Hole at tail side of range. Current code does not report EFAULT, no
   change by this patch.

    [  vma  ][ hole ][ vma]
       [  range  ]

This patch has no changes to rule 3.

The unmapped hole checking can also be handled by using .pte_hole(),
instead of .test_walk().  But .pte_hole() is called for holes inside and
outside vma, which causes more cost, so this patch keeps the original
design with .test_walk().

      mm/mempolicy.c: check range first in queue_pages_test_walk · a18b3ac2
      由 Li Xinhai 提交于 
      Patch series "mm: Fix checking unmapped holes for mbind", v4.

This patchset fix checking unmapped holes for mbind().

First patch makes sure the vma been correctly tracked in .test_walk(),
so each time when .test_walk() is called, the neighborhood of two vma
is correct.

Current problem is that the !vma_migratable() check could cause return
immediately without update tracking to vma.

Second patch fix the inconsistent report of EFAULT when mbind() is
called for MPOL_DEFAULT and non MPOL_DEFAULT cases, so application do
not need to have workaround code to handle this special behavior.
Currently there are two problems, one is that the .test_walk() can not
know there is hole at tail side of range, because .test_walk() only
call for vma not for hole.  The other one is that mbind_range() checks
for hole at head side of range but do not consider the
MPOL_MF_DISCONTIG_OK flag as done in .test_walk().

This patch (of 2):

Checking unmapped hole and updating the previous vma must be handled
first, otherwise the unmapped hole could be calculated from a wrong
previous vma.

Several commits were relevant to this error:

 - commit 6f4576e3 ("mempolicy: apply page table walker on
   queue_pages_range()")

   This commit was correct, the VM_PFNMAP check was after updating
   previous vma

 - commit 48684a65 ("mm: pagewalk: fix misbehavior of
   walk_page_range for vma(VM_PFNMAP)")

   This commit added VM_PFNMAP check before updating previous vma. Then,
   there were two VM_PFNMAP check did same thing twice.

 - commit acda0c33 ("mm/mempolicy.c: get rid of duplicated check for
   vma(VM_PFNMAP) in queue_page s_range()")

   This commit tried to fix the duplicated VM_PFNMAP check, but it
   wrongly removed the one which was after updating vma.

      mm, page_alloc: allow hugepage fallback to remote nodes when madvised · 76e654cc
      由 David Rientjes 提交于 
      For systems configured to always try hard to allocate transparent
hugepages (thp defrag setting of "always") or for memory that has been
explicitly madvised to MADV_HUGEPAGE, it is often better to fallback to
remote memory to allocate the hugepage if the local allocation fails
first.

The point is to allow the initial call to __alloc_pages_node() to attempt
to defragment local memory to make a hugepage available, if possible,
rather than immediately fallback to remote memory.  Local hugepages will
always have a better access latency than remote (huge)pages, so an attempt
to make a hugepage available locally is always preferred.

If memory compaction cannot be successful locally, however, it is likely
better to fallback to remote memory.  This could take on two forms: either
allow immediate fallback to remote memory or do per-zone watermark checks.
It would be possible to fallback only when per-zone watermarks fail for
order-0 memory, since that would require local reclaim for all subsequent
faults so remote huge allocation is likely better than thrashing the local
zone for large workloads.

In this case, it is assumed that because the system is configured to try
hard to allocate hugepages or the vma is advised to explicitly want to try
hard for hugepages that remote allocation is better when local allocation
and memory compaction have both failed.

      Revert "Revert "Revert "mm, thp: consolidate THP gfp handling into alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask"" · 19deb769
      由 David Rientjes 提交于 
      This reverts commit 92717d42.

Since commit a8282608 ("Revert "mm, thp: restore node-local hugepage
allocations"") is reverted in this series, it is better to restore the
previous 5.2 behavior between the thp allocation and the page allocator
rather than to attempt any consolidation or cleanup for a policy that is
now reverted.  It's less risky during an rc cycle and subsequent patches
in this series further modify the same policy that the pre-5.3 behavior
implements.

Consolidation and cleanup can be done subsequent to a sane default page
allocation strategy, so this patch reverts a cleanup done on a strategy
that is now reverted and thus is the least risky option.

      Revert "Revert "mm, thp: restore node-local hugepage allocations"" · ac79f78d
      由 David Rientjes 提交于 
      This reverts commit a8282608.

The commit references the original intended semantic for MADV_HUGEPAGE
which has subsequently taken on three unique purposes:

 - enables or disables thp for a range of memory depending on the system's
   config (is thp "enabled" set to "always" or "madvise"),

 - determines the synchronous compaction behavior for thp allocations at
   fault (is thp "defrag" set to "always", "defer+madvise", or "madvise"),
   and

 - reverts a previous MADV_NOHUGEPAGE (there is no madvise mode to only
   clear previous hugepage advice).

These are the three purposes that currently exist in 5.2 and over the
past several years that userspace has been written around.  Adding a
NUMA locality preference adds a fourth dimension to an already conflated
advice mode.

Based on the semantic that MADV_HUGEPAGE has provided over the past
several years, there exist workloads that use the tunable based on these
principles: specifically that the allocation should attempt to
defragment a local node before falling back.  It is agreed that remote
hugepages typically (but not always) have a better access latency than
remote native pages, although on Naples this is at parity for
intersocket.

The revert commit that this patch reverts allows hugepage allocation to
immediately allocate remotely when local memory is fragmented.  This is
contrary to the semantic of MADV_HUGEPAGE over the past several years:
that is, memory compaction should be attempted locally before falling
back.

The performance degradation of remote hugepages over local hugepages on
Rome, for example, is 53.5% increased access latency.  For this reason,
the goal is to revert back to the 5.2 and previous behavior that would
attempt local defragmentation before falling back.  With the patch that
is reverted by this patch, we see performance degradations at the tail
because the allocator happily allocates the remote hugepage rather than
even attempting to make a local hugepage available.

zone_reclaim_mode is not a solution to this problem since it does not
only impact hugepage allocations but rather changes the memory
allocation strategy for *all* page allocations.
