alloc_bootmem_section() derives allocation area constraints from the specified sparsemem section. This is a bit specific for a generic memory allocator like bootmem, though, so move it over to sparsemem. As __alloc_bootmem_node_nopanic() already retries failed allocations with relaxed area constraints, the fallback code in sparsemem.c can be removed and the code becomes a bit more compact overall.

While the panicking node-specific allocation function tries to satisfy node+goal, goal, node, anywhere, the non-panicking function still does node+goal, goal, anywhere. Make it simpler: define the panicking version in terms of the non-panicking one, like the node-agnostic interface, so they always behave the same way apart from how to deal with allocation failure.

When bootmem releases an unaligned BITS_PER_LONG pages chunk of memory to the page allocator, it checks the bitmap if there are still unreserved pages in the chunk (set bits), but also if the offset in the chunk indicates BITS_PER_LONG loop iterations already. But since the consulted bitmap is only a one-word-excerpt of the full per-node bitmap, there can not be more than BITS_PER_LONG bits set in it. The additional offset check is unnecessary.

When bootmem releases an unaligned chunk of memory at the beginning of a node to the page allocator, it iterates from that unaligned PFN but checks an aligned word of the page bitmap. The checked bits do not correspond to the PFNs and, as a result, reserved pages can be freed. Properly shift the bitmap word so that the lowest bit corresponds to the starting PFN before entering the freeing loop. This bug has been around since commit 41546c17 ("bootmem: clean up free_all_bootmem_core") (2.6.27) without known reports.

This has always been broken: one version takes an unsigned int and the other version takes no arguments. This bug was hidden because one version of set_pageblock_order() was a macro which doesn't evaluate its argument. Simplify it all and remove pageblock_default_order() altogether.

The rmap walker checking page table references has historically ignored references from VMAs that were not part of the memcg that was being reclaimed during memcg hard limit reclaim. When transitioning global reclaim to memcg hierarchy reclaim, I missed that bit and now references from outside a memcg are ignored even during global reclaim. Reverting back to traditional behaviour - count all references during global reclaim and only mind references of the memcg being reclaimed during limit reclaim would be one option. However, the more generic idea is to ignore references exactly then when they are outside the hierarchy that is currently under reclaim; because only then will their reclamation be of any use to help the pressure situation. It makes no sense to ignore references from a sibling memcg and then evict a page that will be immediately refaulted by that sibling which contributes to the same usage of the common ancestor under reclaim. The solution: make the rmap walker ignore references from VMAs that are not part of the hierarchy that is being reclaimed. Flat limit reclaim will stay the same, hierarchical limit reclaim will mind the references only to pages that the hierarchy owns. Global reclaim, since it reclaims from all memcgs, will be fixed to regard all references.

While running an application that moves tasks from one cpuset to another I noticed that it takes much longer and moves many more pages than expected. The reason for this is do_migrate_pages() does its best to preserve the relative node differential from the first node of the cpuset because the application may have been written with that in mind. If memory was interleaved on the nodes of the source cpuset by an application do_migrate_pages() will try its best to maintain that interleaving on the nodes of the destination cpuset. This means copying the memory from all source nodes to the destination nodes even if the source and destination nodes overlap. This is a problem for userspace NUMA placement tools. The amount of time spent doing extra memory moves cancels out some of the NUMA performance improvements. Furthermore, if the number of source and destination nodes are to maintain the previous interleaving layout anyway. This patch changes do_migrate_pages() to only preserve the relative layout inside the program if the number of NUMA nodes in the source and destination mask are the same. If the number is different, we do a much more efficient migration by not touching memory that is in an allowed node. This preserves the old behaviour for programs that want it, while allowing a userspace NUMA placement tool to use the new, faster migration. This improves performance in our tests by up to a factor of 7. Without this change migrating tasks from a cpuset containing nodes 0-7 to a cpuset containing nodes 3-4, we migrate from ALL the nodes even if they are in the both the source and destination nodesets: Migrating 7 to 4 Migrating 6 to 3 Migrating 5 to 4 Migrating 4 to 3 Migrating 1 to 4 Migrating 3 to 4 Migrating 0 to 3 Migrating 2 to 3 With this change we only migrate from nodes that are not in the destination nodesets: Migrating 7 to 4 Migrating 6 to 3 Migrating 5 to 4 Migrating 2 to 3 Migrating 1 to 4 Migrating 0 to 3 Yet if we move from a cpuset containing nodes 2,3,4 to a cpuset containing 3,4,5 we still do move everything so that we preserve the desired NUMA offsets: Migrating 4 to 5 Migrating 3 to 4 Migrating 2 to 3 As far as performance is concerned this simple patch improves the time it takes to move 14, 20 and 26 large tasks from a cpuset containing nodes 0-7 to a cpuset containing nodes 1 & 3 by up to a factor of 7.

On COW, a new hugepage is allocated and charged to the memcg. If the system is oom or the charge to the memcg fails, however, the fault handler will return VM_FAULT_OOM which results in an oom kill. Instead, it's possible to fallback to splitting the hugepage so that the COW results only in an order-0 page being allocated and charged to the memcg which has a higher liklihood to succeed. This is expensive because the hugepage must be split in the page fault handler, but it is much better than unnecessarily oom killing a process.

The vma length in dup_mmap is calculated and stored in a unsigned int, which is insufficient and hence overflows for very large maps (beyond 16TB). The following program demonstrates this: #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #define GIG 1024 * 1024 * 1024L #define EXTENT 16393 int main(void) { int i, r; void *m; char buf[1024]; for (i = 0; i < EXTENT; i++) { m = mmap(NULL, (size_t) 1 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024L, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, 0, 0); if (m == (void *)-1) printf("MMAP Failed: %d\n", m); else printf("%d : MMAP returned %p\n", i, m); r = fork(); if (r == 0) { printf("%d: successed\n", i); return 0; } else if (r < 0) printf("FORK Failed: %d\n", r); else if (r > 0) wait(NULL); } return 0; } Increase the storage size of the result to unsigned long, which is sufficient for storing the difference between addresses.

The "if (mm)" check is not required in find_vma, as the kernel code calls find_vma only when it is absolutely sure that the mm_struct arg to it is non-NULL. Remove the if(mm) check and adding the a WARN_ONCE(!mm) for now. This will serve the purpose of mandating that the execution context(user-mode/kernel-mode) be known before find_vma is called. Also fixed 2 checkpatch.pl errors in the declaration of the rb_node and vma_tmp local variables. I was browsing through the internet and read a discussion at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/27/342 which discusses removal of the validation check within find_vma. Since no-one responded, I decided to send this patch with Andrew's suggestions.

/sys/devices/system/node/{online,possible} outputs a garbage byte because print_nodes_state() returns content size + 1. To fix the bug, the patch changes the use of cpuset_sprintf_cpulist to follow the use at other places, which is clearer and safer.

This patch stops reclaim/compaction entering sync reclaim as this was only intended for lumpy reclaim and an oversight. Page migration has its own logic for stalling on writeback pages if necessary and memory compaction is already using it. Waiting on page writeback is bad for a number of reasons but the primary one is that waiting on writeback to a slow device like USB can take a considerable length of time. Page reclaim instead uses wait_iff_congested() to throttle if too many dirty pages are being scanned.

Other data such as memory usage, page IO, swap IO all looked similar. Running a benchmark with a plain DD showed nothing very interesting. The full series stalled in wait_iff_congested() slightly less but stall times on vanilla kernels were marginal. Running a benchmark that hammered on file-backed mappings showed stalls due to congestion but not in sync writebacks MICRO 3.3.0-vanilla rc2-vanilla lumpyremove-v2r3 nosync-v2r3 MMTests Statistics: duration Sys Time Running Test (seconds) 308.13 294.50 298.75 299.53 User+Sys Time Running Test (seconds) 330.45 316.28 318.93 320.79 Total Elapsed Time (seconds) 1814.90 1833.88 1821.14 1832.91 MMTests Statistics: vmstat Page Ins 108712 120708 97224 110344 Page Outs 155514576 156017404 155813676 156193256 Swap Ins 0 0 0 0 Swap Outs 0 0 0 0 Direct pages scanned 2599253 1550480 2512822 2414760 Kswapd pages scanned 69742364 71150694 68839041 69692533 Kswapd pages reclaimed 34824488 34773341 34796602 34799396 Direct pages reclaimed 53693 94750 61792 75205 Kswapd efficiency 49% 48% 50% 49% Kswapd velocity 38427.662 38797.901 37799.972 38022.889 Direct efficiency 2% 6% 2% 3% Direct velocity 1432.174 845.464 1379.807 1317.446 Percentage direct scans 3% 2% 3% 3% Page writes by reclaim 0 0 0 0 Page writes file 0 0 0 0 Page writes anon 0 0 0 0 Page reclaim immediate 0 0 0 1218 Page rescued immediate 0 0 0 0 Slabs scanned 15360 16384 13312 16384 Direct inode steals 0 0 0 0 Kswapd inode steals 4340 4327 1630 4323 FTrace Reclaim Statistics: congestion_wait Direct number congest waited 0 0 0 0 Direct time congest waited 0ms 0ms 0ms 0ms Direct full congest waited 0 0 0 0 Direct number conditional waited 900 870 754 789 Direct time conditional waited 0ms 0ms 0ms 20ms Direct full conditional waited 0 0 0 0 KSwapd number congest waited 2106 2308 2116 1915 KSwapd time congest waited 139924ms 157832ms 125652ms 132516ms KSwapd full congest waited 1346 1530 1202 1278 KSwapd number conditional waited 12922 16320 10943 14670 KSwapd time conditional waited 0ms 0ms 0ms 0ms KSwapd full conditional waited 0 0 0 0 Reclaim statistics are not radically changed. The stall times in kswapd are massive but it is clear that it is due to calls to congestion_wait() and that is almost certainly the call in balance_pgdat(). Otherwise stalls due to dirty pages are non-existant. I ran a benchmark that stressed high-order allocation. This is very artifical load but was used in the past to evaluate lumpy reclaim and compaction. Generally I look at allocation success rates and latency figures.

I expected this would happen for kswapd and impair allocation success rates (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/25/166) but I did not anticipate this much a difference: 80% less scanning, 37% less reclaim by kswapd In comparison, reclaim/compaction is not aggressive and gives up easily which is the intended behaviour. hugetlbfs uses __GFP_REPEAT and would be much more aggressive about reclaim/compaction than THP allocations are. The stress test above is allocating like neither THP or hugetlbfs but is much closer to THP. Mainline is now impaired in terms of high order allocation under heavy load although I do not know to what degree as I did not test with __GFP_REPEAT. Keep this in mind for bugs related to hugepage pool resizing, THP allocation and high order atomic allocation failures from network devices. In terms of congestion throttling, I see the following for this test FTrace Reclaim Statistics: congestion_wait Direct number congest waited 3 0 0 0 Direct time congest waited 0ms 0ms 0ms 0ms Direct full congest waited 0 0 0 0 Direct number conditional waited 957 512 1081 1075 Direct time conditional waited 0ms 0ms 0ms 0ms Direct full conditional waited 0 0 0 0 KSwapd number congest waited 36 4 3 5 KSwapd time congest waited 3148ms 400ms 300ms 500ms KSwapd full congest waited 30 4 3 5 KSwapd number conditional waited 88514 197 332 542 KSwapd time conditional waited 4980ms 0ms 0ms 0ms KSwapd full conditional waited 49 0 0 0 The "conditional waited" times are the most interesting as this is directly impacted by the number of dirty pages encountered during scan. As lumpy reclaim is no longer scanning contiguous ranges, it is finding fewer dirty pages. This brings wait times from about 5 seconds to 0. kswapd itself is still calling congestion_wait() so it'll still stall but it's a lot less. In terms of the type of IO we were doing, I see this FTrace Reclaim Statistics: mm_vmscan_writepage Direct writes anon sync 0 0 0 0 Direct writes anon async 0 0 0 0 Direct writes file sync 0 0 0 0 Direct writes file async 0 0 0 0 Direct writes mixed sync 0 0 0 0 Direct writes mixed async 0 0 0 0 KSwapd writes anon sync 0 0 0 0 KSwapd writes anon async 91682 0 0 0 KSwapd writes file sync 0 0 0 0 KSwapd writes file async 822629 0 0 0 KSwapd writes mixed sync 0 0 0 0 KSwapd writes mixed async 0 0 0 0 In 3.2, kswapd was doing a bunch of async writes of pages but reclaim/compaction was never reaching a point where it was doing sync IO. This does not guarantee that reclaim/compaction was not calling wait_on_page_writeback() but I would consider it unlikely. It indicates that merging patches 2 and 3 to stop reclaim/compaction calling wait_on_page_writeback() should be safe. This patch: Lumpy reclaim had a purpose but in the mind of some, it was to kick the system so hard it trashed. For others the purpose was to complicate vmscan.c. Over time it was giving softer shoes and a nicer attitude but memory compaction needs to step up and replace it so this patch sends lumpy reclaim to the farm. The tracepoint format changes for isolating LRU pages with this patch applied. Furthermore reclaim/compaction can no longer queue dirty pages in pageout() if the underlying BDI is congested. Lumpy reclaim used this logic and reclaim/compaction was using it in error.

The swap token code no longer fits in with the current VM model. It does not play well with cgroups or the better NUMA placement code in development, since we have only one swap token globally. It also has the potential to mess with scalability of the system, by increasing the number of non-reclaimable pages on the active and inactive anon LRU lists. Last but not least, the swap token code has been broken for a year without complaints, as reported by Konstantin Khlebnikov. This suggests we no longer have much use for it. The days of sub-1G memory systems with heavy use of swap are over. If we ever need thrashing reducing code in the future, we will have to implement something that does scale.

The transparent hugepages feature is careful to not invoke the oom killer when a hugepage cannot be allocated. pte_alloc_one() failing in __do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page(), however, currently results in VM_FAULT_OOM which invokes the pagefault oom killer to kill a memory-hogging task. This is unnecessary since it's possible to drop the reference to the hugepage and fallback to allocating a small page.
