task_numa_work skips small VMAs. At the time the logic was to reduce the scanning overhead which was considerable. It is a dubious hack at best. It would make much more sense to cache where faults have been observed and only rescan those regions during subsequent PTE scans. Remove this hack as motivation to do it properly in the future.

Currently automatic NUMA balancing is unable to distinguish between false shared versus private pages except by ignoring pages with an elevated page_mapcount entirely. This avoids shared pages bouncing between the nodes whose task is using them but that is ignored quite a lot of data. This patch kicks away the training wheels in preparation for adding support for identifying shared/private pages is now in place. The ordering is so that the impact of the shared/private detection can be easily measured. Note that the patch does not migrate shared, file-backed within vmas marked VM_EXEC as these are generally shared library pages. Migrating such pages is not beneficial as there is an expectation they are read-shared between caches and iTLB and iCache pressure is generally low.

Ideally it would be possible to distinguish between NUMA hinting faults that are private to a task and those that are shared. This patch prepares infrastructure for separately accounting shared and private faults by allocating the necessary buffers and passing in relevant information. For now, all faults are treated as private and detection will be introduced later.

A preferred node is selected based on the node the most NUMA hinting faults was incurred on. There is no guarantee that the task is running on that node at the time so this patch rescheules the task to run on the most idle CPU of the selected node when selected.

This patch favours moving tasks towards NUMA node that recorded a higher number of NUMA faults during active load balancing. Ideally this is self-reinforcing as the longer the task runs on that node, the more faults it should incur causing task_numa_placement to keep the task running on that node. In reality a big weakness is that the nodes CPUs can be overloaded and it would be more efficient to queue tasks on an idle node and migrate to the new node. This would require additional smarts in the balancer so for now the balancer will simply prefer to place the task on the preferred node for a PTE scans which is controlled by the numa_balancing_settle_count sysctl. Once the settle_count number of scans has complete the schedule is free to place the task on an alternative node if the load is imbalanced.

NUMA hinting fault counts and placement decisions are both recorded in the same array which distorts the samples in an unpredictable fashion. The values linearly accumulate during the scan and then decay creating a sawtooth-like pattern in the per-node counts. It also means that placement decisions are time sensitive. At best it means that it is very difficult to state that the buffer holds a decaying average of past faulting behaviour. At worst, it can confuse the load balancer if it sees one node with an artifically high count due to very recent faulting activity and may create a bouncing effect. This patch adds a second array. numa_faults stores the historical data which is used for placement decisions. numa_faults_buffer holds the fault activity during the current scan window. When the scan completes, numa_faults decays and the values from numa_faults_buffer are copied across.

The NUMA PTE scan rate is controlled with a combination of the numa_balancing_scan_period_min, numa_balancing_scan_period_max and numa_balancing_scan_size. This scan rate is independent of the size of the task and as an aside it is further complicated by the fact that numa_balancing_scan_size controls how many pages are marked pte_numa and not how much virtual memory is scanned. In combination, it is almost impossible to meaningfully tune the min and max scan periods and reasoning about performance is complex when the time to complete a full scan is is partially a function of the tasks memory size. This patch alters the semantic of the min and max tunables to be about tuning the length time it takes to complete a scan of a tasks occupied virtual address space. Conceptually this is a lot easier to understand. There is a "sanity" check to ensure the scan rate is never extremely fast based on the amount of virtual memory that should be scanned in a second. The default of 2.5G seems arbitrary but it is to have the maximum scan rate after the patch roughly match the maximum scan rate before the patch was applied. On a similar note, numa_scan_period is in milliseconds and not jiffies. Properly placed pages slow the scanning rate but adding 10 jiffies to numa_scan_period means that the rate scanning slows depends on HZ which is confusing. Get rid of the jiffies_to_msec conversion and treat it as ms.

PTE scanning and NUMA hinting fault handling is expensive so commit 5bca2303 ("mm: sched: numa: Delay PTE scanning until a task is scheduled on a new node") deferred the PTE scan until a task had been scheduled on another node. The problem is that in the purely shared memory case that this may never happen and no NUMA hinting fault information will be captured. We are not ruling out the possibility that something better can be done here but for now, this patch needs to be reverted and depend entirely on the scan_delay to avoid punishing short-lived processes.

Avoiding marking PTEs pte_numa because a particular NUMA node is migrate rate limited sees like a bad idea. Even if this node can't migrate anymore other nodes might and we want up-to-date information to do balance decisions. We already rate limit the actual migrations, this should leave enough bandwidth to allow the non-migrating scanning. I think its important we keep up-to-date information if we're going to do placement based on it.

With a trace_printk("working\n"); right after the cmpxchg in task_numa_work() we can see that of a 4 thread process, its always the same task winning the race and doing the protection change. This is a problem since the task doing the protection change has a penalty for taking faults -- it is busy when marking the PTEs. If its always the same task the ->numa_faults[] get severely skewed. Avoid this by delaying the task doing the protection change such that it is unlikely to win the privilege again.

There are three callers of task_numa_fault(): - do_huge_pmd_numa_page(): Accounts against the current node, not the node where the page resides, unless we migrated, in which case it accounts against the node we migrated to. - do_numa_page(): Accounts against the current node, not the node where the page resides, unless we migrated, in which case it accounts against the node we migrated to. - do_pmd_numa_page(): Accounts not at all when the page isn't migrated, otherwise accounts against the node we migrated towards. This seems wrong to me; all three sites should have the same sementaics, furthermore we should accounts against where the page really is, we already know where the task is. So modify all three sites to always account; we did after all receive the fault; and always account to where the page is after migration, regardless of success. They all still differ on when they clear the PTE/PMD; ideally that would get sorted too.

The locking for migrating THP is unusual. While normal page migration prevents parallel accesses using a migration PTE, THP migration relies on a combination of the page_table_lock, the page lock and the existance of the NUMA hinting PTE to guarantee safety but there is a bug in the scheme. If a THP page is currently being migrated and another thread traps a fault on the same page it checks if the page is misplaced. If it is not, then pmd_numa is cleared. The problem is that it checks if the page is misplaced without holding the page lock meaning that the racing thread can be migrating the THP when the second thread clears the NUMA bit and faults a stale page. This patch checks if the page is potentially being migrated and stalls using the lock_page if it is potentially being migrated before checking if the page is misplaced or not.

In 76854c7e ("sched: Use rt.nr_cpus_allowed to recover select_task_rq() cycles") an optimization was added to select_task_rq_rt() that immediately returns when p->nr_cpus_allowed == 1 at the beginning of the function. This makes the latter p->nr_cpus_allowed > 1 check redundant, which can now be removed.
