Run PCI driver initialization on local node Instead of adding messy kmalloc_node()s everywhere run the PCI driver probe on the node local to the device. This would not have helped for IDE, but should for other more clean drivers that do more initialization in probe(). It won't help for drivers that do most of the work on first open (like many network drivers) Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

Now the real motivation for this cpuset mem_exclusive patch series seems trivial. This patch keeps a task in or under one mem_exclusive cpuset from provoking an oom kill of a task under a non-overlapping mem_exclusive cpuset. Since only interrupt and GFP_ATOMIC allocations are allowed to escape mem_exclusive containment, there is little to gain from oom killing a task under a non-overlapping mem_exclusive cpuset, as almost all kernel and user memory allocation must come from disjoint memory nodes. This patch enables configuring a system so that a runaway job under one mem_exclusive cpuset cannot cause the killing of a job in another such cpuset that might be using very high compute and memory resources for a prolonged time.

This patch makes use of the previously underutilized cpuset flag 'mem_exclusive' to provide what amounts to another layer of memory placement resolution. With this patch, there are now the following four layers of memory placement available: 1) The whole system (interrupt and GFP_ATOMIC allocations can use this), 2) The nearest enclosing mem_exclusive cpuset (GFP_KERNEL allocations can use), 3) The current tasks cpuset (GFP_USER allocations constrained to here), and 4) Specific node placement, using mbind and set_mempolicy. These nest - each layer is a subset (same or within) of the previous. Layer (2) above is new, with this patch. The call used to check whether a zone (its node, actually) is in a cpuset (in its mems_allowed, actually) is extended to take a gfp_mask argument, and its logic is extended, in the case that __GFP_HARDWALL is not set in the flag bits, to look up the cpuset hierarchy for the nearest enclosing mem_exclusive cpuset, to determine if placement is allowed. The definition of GFP_USER, which used to be identical to GFP_KERNEL, is changed to also set the __GFP_HARDWALL bit, in the previous cpuset_gfp_hardwall_flag patch. GFP_ATOMIC and GFP_KERNEL allocations will stay within the current tasks cpuset, so long as any node therein is not too tight on memory, but will escape to the larger layer, if need be. The intended use is to allow something like a batch manager to handle several jobs, each job in its own cpuset, but using common kernel memory for caches and such. Swapper and oom_kill activity is also constrained to Layer (2). A task in or below one mem_exclusive cpuset should not cause swapping on nodes in another non-overlapping mem_exclusive cpuset, nor provoke oom_killing of a task in another such cpuset. Heavy use of kernel memory for i/o caching and such by one job should not impact the memory available to jobs in other non-overlapping mem_exclusive cpusets. This patch enables providing hardwall, inescapable cpusets for memory allocations of each job, while sharing kernel memory allocations between several jobs, in an enclosing mem_exclusive cpuset. Like Dinakar's patch earlier to enable administering sched domains using the cpu_exclusive flag, this patch also provides a useful meaning to a cpuset flag that had previously done nothing much useful other than restrict what cpuset configurations were allowed.

This patch series extends the use of the cpuset attribute 'mem_exclusive' to support cpuset configurations that: 1) allow GFP_KERNEL allocations to come from a potentially larger set of memory nodes than GFP_USER allocations, and 2) can constrain the oom killer to tasks running in cpusets in a specified subtree of the cpuset hierarchy. Here's an example usage scenario. For a few hours or more, a large NUMA system at a University is to be divided in two halves, with a bunch of student jobs running in half the system under some form of batch manager, and with a big research project running in the other half. Each of the student jobs is placed in a small cpuset, but should share the classic Unix time share facilities, such as buffered pages of files in /bin and /usr/lib. The big research project wants no interference whatsoever from the student jobs, and has highly tuned, unusual memory and i/o patterns that intend to make full use of all the main memory on the nodes available to it. In this example, we have two big sibling cpusets, one of which is further divided into a more dynamic set of child cpusets. We want kernel memory allocations constrained by the two big cpusets, and user allocations constrained by the smaller child cpusets where present. And we require that the oom killer not operate across the two halves of this system, or else the first time a student job runs amuck, the big research project will likely be first inline to get shot. Tweaking /proc/<pid>/oom_adj is not ideal -- if the big research project really does run amuck allocating memory, it should be shot, not some other task outside the research projects mem_exclusive cpuset. I propose to extend the use of the 'mem_exclusive' flag of cpusets to manage such scenarios. Let memory allocations for user space (GFP_USER) be constrained by a tasks current cpuset, but memory allocations for kernel space (GFP_KERNEL) by constrained by the nearest mem_exclusive ancestor of the current cpuset, even though kernel space allocations will still _prefer_ to remain within the current tasks cpuset, if memory is easily available. Let the oom killer be constrained to consider only tasks that are in overlapping mem_exclusive cpusets (it won't help much to kill a task that normally cannot allocate memory on any of the same nodes as the ones on which the current task can allocate.) The current constraints imposed on setting mem_exclusive are unchanged. A cpuset may only be mem_exclusive if its parent is also mem_exclusive, and a mem_exclusive cpuset may not overlap any of its siblings memory nodes. This patch was presented on linux-mm in early July 2005, though did not generate much feedback at that time. It has been built for a variety of arch's using cross tools, and built, booted and tested for function on SN2 (ia64). There are 4 patches in this set: 1) Some minor cleanup, and some improvements to the code layout of one routine to make subsequent patches cleaner. 2) Add another GFP flag - __GFP_HARDWALL. It marks memory requests for USER space, which are tightly confined by the current tasks cpuset. 3) Now memory requests (such as KERNEL) that not marked HARDWALL can if short on memory, look in the potentially larger pool of memory defined by the nearest mem_exclusive ancestor cpuset of the current tasks cpuset. 4) Finally, modify the oom killer to skip any task whose mem_exclusive cpuset doesn't overlap ours. Patch (1), the one time I looked on an SN2 (ia64) build, actually saved 32 bytes of kernel text space. Patch (2) has no affect on the size of kernel text space (it just adds a preprocessor flag). Patches (3) and (4) added about 600 bytes each of kernel text space, mostly in kernel/cpuset.c, which matters only if CONFIG_CPUSET is enabled. This patch: This patch applies a few comment and code cleanups to mm/oom_kill.c prior to applying a few small patches to improve cpuset management of memory placement. The comment changed in oom_kill.c was seriously misleading. The code layout change in select_bad_process() makes room for adding another condition on which a process can be spared the oom killer (see the subsequent cpuset_nodes_overlap patch for this addition). Also a couple typos and spellos that bugged me, while I was here. This patch should have no material affect.

This patch modifies the VFS setxattr, getxattr, and listxattr code to fall back to the security module for security xattrs if the filesystem does not support xattrs natively. This allows security modules to export the incore inode security label information to userspace even if the filesystem does not provide xattr storage, and eliminates the need to individually patch various pseudo filesystem types to provide such access. The patch removes the existing xattr code from devpts and tmpfs as it is then no longer needed. The patch restructures the code flow slightly to reduce duplication between the normal path and the fallback path, but this should only have one user-visible side effect - a program may get -EACCES rather than -EOPNOTSUPP if policy denied access but the filesystem didn't support the operation anyway. Note that the post_setxattr hook call is not needed in the fallback case, as the inode_setsecurity hook call handles the incore inode security state update directly. In contrast, we do call fsnotify in both cases.

Add a new accessor for PTEs, which passes the full hint from the mmu_gather struct; this allows architectures with hardware pagetables to optimize away atomic PTE operations when destroying an address space. Removing the locked operation should allow better pipelining of memory access in this loop. I measured an average savings of 30-35 cycles per zap_pte_range on the first 500 destructions on Pentium-M, but I believe the optimization would win more on older processors which still assert the bus lock on xchg for an exclusive cacheline. Update: I made some new measurements, and this saves exactly 26 cycles over ptep_get_and_clear on Pentium M. On P4, with a PAE kernel, this saves 180 cycles per ptep_get_and_clear, for a whopping 92160 cycles savings for a full address space destruction. pte_clear_full is not yet used, but is provided for future optimizations (in particular, when running inside of a hypervisor that queues page table updates, the full hint allows us to avoid queueing unnecessary page table update for an address space in the process of being destroyed. This is not a huge win, but it does help a bit, and sets the stage for further hypervisor optimization of the mm layer on all architectures.

Initial Post (Wed, 17 Aug 2005) This patch moves the if (! pte_none(*pte)) hugetlb_clean_stale_pgtable(pte); logic into huge_pte_alloc() so all of its callers can be immune to the bug described by Kenneth Chen at http://lkml.org/lkml/2004/6/16/246 > It turns out there is a bug in hugetlb_prefault(): with 3 level page table, > huge_pte_alloc() might return a pmd that points to a PTE page. It happens > if the virtual address for hugetlb mmap is recycled from previously used > normal page mmap. free_pgtables() might not scrub the pmd entry on > munmap and hugetlb_prefault skips on any pmd presence regardless what type > it is. Unless I am missing something, it seems more correct to place the check inside huge_pte_alloc() to prevent a the same bug wherever a huge pte is allocated. It also allows checking for this condition when lazily faulting huge pages later in the series.

Version 6 of the ARM architecture introduces the concept of 16MB pages (supersections) and 36-bit (40-bit actually, but nobody uses this) physical addresses. 36-bit addressed memory and I/O and ARMv6 can only be mapped using supersections and the requirement on these is that both virtual and physical addresses be 16MB aligned. In trying to add support for ioremap() of 36-bit I/O, we run into the issue that get_vm_area() allows for a maximum of 512K alignment via the IOREMAP_MAX_ORDER constant. To work around this, we can: - Allocate a larger VM area than needed (size + (1ul << IOREMAP_MAX_ORDER)) and then align the pointer ourselves, but this ends up with 512K of wasted VM per ioremap(). - Provide a new __get_vm_area_aligned() API and make __get_vm_area() sit on top of this. I did this and it works but I don't like the idea adding another VM API just for this one case. - My preferred solution which is to allow the architecture to override the IOREMAP_MAX_ORDER constant with it's own version.

Better late than never, I've at last reviewed the madvise vma merging going into 2.6.13. Remove a pointless check and fix two little bugs - a simple test (with /proc/<pid>/maps hacked to show ReadHints) showed both mismerges in practice: though being madvise, neither was disastrous. 1. Correct placement of the success label in madvise_behavior: as in mprotect_fixup and mlock_fixup, it is necessary to update vm_flags when vma_merge succeeds (to handle the exceptional Case 8 noted in the comments above vma_merge itself). 2. Correct initial value of prev when starting part way into a vma: as in sys_mprotect and do_mlock, it needs to be set to vma in this case (vma_merge handles only that minimum of cases shown in its comments). 3. If find_vma_prev sets prev, then the vma it returns is prev->vm_next, so it's pointless to make that same assignment again in sys_madvise.

filemap_xip's nopage routine maps the ZERO_PAGE into readonly mappings, if it has no data page to map there: then if the hole in the file is later filled, __xip_unmap uses an rmap technique to replace the ZERO_PAGEs mapped for that offset by the newly allocated file page, so that established mappings will see the newly written data. However, on MIPS (alone) there's not one but as many as eight ZERO_PAGEs, chosen for coloring by user virtual address; and if mremap has meanwhile been used to move a mapping containing a ZERO_PAGE, it will generally not match the ZERO_PAGE(address) __xip_unmap is looking for. To maintain XIP's established mappings correctly on MIPS, we need Nick's fix to mremap's move_one_page (originally presented as an optimization), to replace the ZERO_PAGE appropriate to the old address by the ZERO_PAGE appropriate to the new address. (But when I first saw this, I was thinking the ZERO_PAGEs themselves would get corrupted, very bad. Now I think it's the other way round, that the established mappings will fail to see the newly written data: incorrect, but not corrupting everything else. Whether filemap_xip's technique is generally safe, I'd hesitate to say in a hurry: it's interesting, but we've never tried to do that in tmpfs.)

This patch was recently discussed on linux-mm: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=112085728500002&r=1&w=2 I inherited a large code base from Ray for page migration. There was a small patch in there that I find to be very useful since it allows the display of the locality of the pages in use by a process. I reworked that patch and came up with a /proc/<pid>/numa_maps that gives more information about the vma's of a process. numa_maps is indexes by the start address found in /proc/<pid>/maps. F.e. with this patch you can see the page use of the "getty" process: margin:/proc/12008 # cat maps 00000000-00004000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0 2000000000000000-200000000002c000 r-xp 00000000 08:04 516 /lib/ld-2.3.3.so 2000000000038000-2000000000040000 rw-p 00028000 08:04 516 /lib/ld-2.3.3.so 2000000000040000-2000000000044000 rw-p 2000000000040000 00:00 0 2000000000058000-2000000000260000 r-xp 00000000 08:04 54707842 /lib/tls/libc.so.6.1 2000000000260000-2000000000268000 ---p 00208000 08:04 54707842 /lib/tls/libc.so.6.1 2000000000268000-2000000000274000 rw-p 00200000 08:04 54707842 /lib/tls/libc.so.6.1 2000000000274000-2000000000280000 rw-p 2000000000274000 00:00 0 2000000000280000-20000000002b4000 r--p 00000000 08:04 9126923 /usr/lib/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_CTYPE 2000000000300000-2000000000308000 r--s 00000000 08:04 60071467 /usr/lib/gconv/gconv-modules.cache 2000000000318000-2000000000328000 rw-p 2000000000318000 00:00 0 4000000000000000-4000000000008000 r-xp 00000000 08:04 29576399 /sbin/mingetty 6000000000004000-6000000000008000 rw-p 00004000 08:04 29576399 /sbin/mingetty 6000000000008000-600000000002c000 rw-p 6000000000008000 00:00 0 [heap] 60000fff7fffc000-60000fff80000000 rw-p 60000fff7fffc000 00:00 0 60000ffffff44000-60000ffffff98000 rw-p 60000ffffff44000 00:00 0 [stack] a000000000000000-a000000000020000 ---p 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso] cat numa_maps 2000000000000000 default MaxRef=43 Pages=11 Mapped=11 N0=4 N1=3 N2=2 N3=2 2000000000038000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=2 Mapped=2 Anon=2 N0=2 2000000000040000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=1 Mapped=1 Anon=1 N0=1 2000000000058000 default MaxRef=43 Pages=61 Mapped=61 N0=14 N1=15 N2=16 N3=16 2000000000268000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=2 Mapped=2 Anon=2 N0=2 2000000000274000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=3 Mapped=3 Anon=3 N0=3 2000000000280000 default MaxRef=8 Pages=3 Mapped=3 N0=3 2000000000300000 default MaxRef=8 Pages=2 Mapped=2 N0=2 2000000000318000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=1 Mapped=1 Anon=1 N2=1 4000000000000000 default MaxRef=6 Pages=2 Mapped=2 N1=2 6000000000004000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=1 Mapped=1 Anon=1 N0=1 6000000000008000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=1 Mapped=1 Anon=1 N0=1 60000fff7fffc000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=1 Mapped=1 Anon=1 N0=1 60000ffffff44000 default MaxRef=1 Pages=1 Mapped=1 Anon=1 N0=1 getty uses ld.so.

Remove the three get_mm_counter(mm, rss) tests from rmap.c: there was a time when testing rss was important to avoid a particular race between dup_mmap and the anonmm rmap; but now it's just a rather silly pseudo- optimization, made even more obscure by the get_mm_counter macro.

The idea of a swap_device_lock per device, and a swap_list_lock over them all, is appealing; but in practice almost every holder of swap_device_lock must already hold swap_list_lock, which defeats the purpose of the split. The only exceptions have been swap_duplicate, valid_swaphandles and an untrodden path in try_to_unuse (plus a few places added in this series). valid_swaphandles doesn't show up high in profiles, but swap_duplicate does demand attention. However, with the hold time in get_swap_pages so much reduced, I've not yet found a load and set of swap device priorities to show even swap_duplicate benefitting from the split. Certainly the split is mere overhead in the common case of a single swap device. So, replace swap_list_lock and swap_device_lock by spinlock_t swap_lock (generally we seem to prefer an _ in the name, and not hide in a macro). If someone can show a regression in swap_duplicate, then probably we should add a hashlock for the swap_map entries alone (shorts being anatomic), so as to help the case of the single swap device too.

get_swap_page has often shown up on latency traces, doing lengthy scans while holding two spinlocks. swap_list_lock is already dropped, now scan_swap_map drop swap_device_lock before scanning the swap_map. While scanning for an empty cluster, don't worry that racing tasks may allocate what was free and free what was allocated; but when allocating an entry, check it's still free after retaking the lock. Avoid dropping the lock in the expected common path. No barriers beyond the locks, just let the cookie crumble; highest_bit limit is volatile, but benign. Guard against swapoff: must check SWP_WRITEOK before allocating, must raise SWP_SCANNING reference count while in scan_swap_map, swapoff wait for that to fall - just use schedule_timeout, we don't want to burden scan_swap_map itself, and it's very unlikely that anyone can really still be in scan_swap_map once swapoff gets this far.

Rewrite scan_swap_map to allocate in just the same way as before (taking the next free entry SWAPFILE_CLUSTER-1 times, then restarting at the lowest wholly empty cluster, falling back to lowest entry if none), but with a view towards dropping the lock in the next patch.

Rewrite get_swap_page to allocate in just the same sequence as before, but without holding swap_list_lock across its scan_swap_map. Decrement nr_swap_pages and update swap_list.next in advance, while still holding swap_list_lock. Skip full devices by testing highest_bit. Swapoff hold swap_device_lock as well as swap_list_lock to clear SWP_WRITEOK. Reduces lock contention when there are parallel swap devices of the same priority.

This makes negligible difference in practice: but swap_list.next should not be updated to a higher prio in the general helper swap_info_get, but rather in swap_entry_free; and then only in the case when entry is actually freed.

The swap header's unsigned int last_page determines the range of swap pages, but swap_info has been using int or unsigned long in some cases: use unsigned int throughout (except, in several places a local unsigned long is useful to avoid overflows when adding).

The "Adding %dk swap" message shows the number of swap extents, as a guide to how fragmented the swapfile may be. But a useful further guide is what total extent they span across (sometimes scarily large). And there's no need to keep nr_extents in swap_info: it's unused after the initial message, so save a little space by keeping it on stack.

There are several comments that swap's extent_list.prev points to the lowest extent: that's not so, it's extent_list.next which points to it, as you'd expect. And a couple of loops in add_swap_extent which go all the way through the list, when they should just add to the other end. Fix those up, and let map_swap_page search the list forwards: profiles shows it to be twice as quick that way - because prefetch works better on how the structs are typically kmalloc'ed? or because usually more is written to than read from swap, and swap is allocated ascendingly?
