In a memcg with even just moderate cache pressure, success rates for
transparent huge page allocations drop to zero, wasting a lot of effort
that the allocator puts into assembling these pages.

The reason for this is that the memcg reclaim code was never designed for
higher-order charges.  It reclaims in small batches until there is room
for at least one page.  Huge page charges only succeed when these batches
add up over a series of huge faults, which is unlikely under any
significant load involving order-0 allocations in the group.

Remove that loop on the memcg side in favor of passing the actual reclaim
goal to direct reclaim, which is already set up and optimized to meet
higher-order goals efficiently.

This brings memcg's THP policy in line with the system policy: if the
allocator painstakingly assembles a hugepage, memcg will at least make an
honest effort to charge it.  As a result, transparent hugepage allocation
rates amid cache activity are drastically improved:

                                      vanilla                 patched
pgalloc                 4717530.80 (  +0.00%)   4451376.40 (  -5.64%)
pgfault                  491370.60 (  +0.00%)    225477.40 ( -54.11%)
pgmajfault                    2.00 (  +0.00%)         1.80 (  -6.67%)
thp_fault_alloc               0.00 (  +0.00%)       531.60 (+100.00%)
thp_fault_fallback          749.00 (  +0.00%)       217.40 ( -70.88%)

[ Note: this may in turn increase memory consumption from internal
  fragmentation, which is an inherent risk of transparent hugepages.
  Some setups may have to adjust the memcg limits accordingly to
  accomodate this - or, if the machine is already packed to capacity,
  disable the transparent huge page feature. ]

`While growing per memcg caches arrays, we jump between memcontrol.c and
slab_common.c in a weird way:

  memcg_alloc_cache_id - memcontrol.c
    memcg_update_all_caches - slab_common.c
      memcg_update_cache_size - memcontrol.c

There's absolutely no reason why memcg_update_cache_size can't live on the
slab's side though.  So let's move it there and settle it comfortably amid
per-memcg cache allocation functions.

Besides, this patch cleans this function up a bit, removing all the
useless comments from it, and renames it to memcg_update_cache_params to
conform to memcg_alloc/free_cache_params, which we already have in
slab_common.c.

The only reason why they live in memcontrol.c is that we get/put css
reference to the owner memory cgroup in them.  However, we can do that in
memcg_{un,}register_cache.  OTOH, there are several reasons to move them
to slab_common.c.

First, I think that the less public interface functions we have in
memcontrol.h the better.  Since the functions I move don't depend on
memcontrol, I think it's worth making them private to slab, especially
taking into account that the arrays are defined on the slab's side too.

Second, the way how per-memcg arrays are updated looks rather awkward: it
proceeds from memcontrol.c (__memcg_activate_kmem) to slab_common.c
(memcg_update_all_caches) and back to memcontrol.c again
(memcg_update_array_size).  In the following patches I move the function
relocating the arrays (memcg_update_array_size) to slab_common.c and
therefore get rid this circular call path.  I think we should have the
cache allocation stuff in the same place where we have relocation, because
it's easier to follow the code then.  So I move arrays alloc/free
functions to slab_common.c too.

The third point isn't obvious.  I'm going to make the list_lru structure
per-memcg to allow targeted kmem reclaim.  That means we will have
per-memcg arrays in list_lrus too.  It turns out that it's much easier to
update these arrays in list_lru.c rather than in memcontrol.c, because all
the stuff we need is defined there.  This patch makes memcg caches arrays
allocation path conform that of the upcoming list_lru.

So let's move these functions to slab_common.c and make them static.

commit 21caf2fc ("mm: teach mm by current context info to not do I/O
during memory allocation") introduces PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO flag to avoid doing
I/O inside memory allocation, __GFP_IO is cleared when this flag is set,
but __GFP_FS implies __GFP_IO, it should also be cleared.  Or it may still
run into I/O, like in superblock shrinker.  And this will make the kernel
run into the deadlock case described in that commit.

See Dave Chinner's comment about io in superblock shrinker:

Filesystem shrinkers do indeed perform IO from the superblock shrinker and
have for years.  Even clean inodes can require IO before they can be freed
- e.g.  on an orphan list, need truncation of post-eof blocks, need to
wait for ordered operations to complete before it can be freed, etc.

IOWs, Ext4, btrfs and XFS all can issue and/or block on arbitrary amounts
of IO in the superblock shrinker context.  XFS, in particular, has been
doing transactions and IO from the VFS inode cache shrinker since it was
first introduced....

Fix this by clearing __GFP_FS in memalloc_noio_flags(), this function has
masked all the gfp_mask that will be passed into fs for the processes
setting PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO in the direct reclaim path.

Async compaction aborts when it detects zone lock contention or
need_resched() is true.  David Rientjes has reported that in practice,
most direct async compactions for THP allocation abort due to
need_resched().  This means that a second direct compaction is never
attempted, which might be OK for a page fault, but khugepaged is intended
to attempt a sync compaction in such case and in these cases it won't.

This patch replaces "bool contended" in compact_control with an int that
distinguishes between aborting due to need_resched() and aborting due to
lock contention.  This allows propagating the abort through all compaction
functions as before, but passing the abort reason up to
__alloc_pages_slowpath() which decides when to continue with direct
reclaim and another compaction attempt.

Another problem is that try_to_compact_pages() did not act upon the
reported contention (both need_resched() or lock contention) immediately
and would proceed with another zone from the zonelist.  When
need_resched() is true, that means initializing another zone compaction,
only to check again need_resched() in isolate_migratepages() and aborting.
 For zone lock contention, the unintended consequence is that the lock
contended status reported back to the allocator is detrmined from the last
zone where compaction was attempted, which is rather arbitrary.

This patch fixes the problem in the following way:
- async compaction of a zone aborting due to need_resched() or fatal signal
  pending means that further zones should not be tried. We report
  COMPACT_CONTENDED_SCHED to the allocator.
- aborting zone compaction due to lock contention means we can still try
  another zone, since it has different set of locks. We report back
  COMPACT_CONTENDED_LOCK only if *all* zones where compaction was attempted,
  it was aborted due to lock contention.

As a result of these fixes, khugepaged will proceed with second sync
compaction as intended, when the preceding async compaction aborted due to
need_resched().  Page fault compactions aborting due to need_resched()
will spare some cycles previously wasted by initializing another zone
compaction only to abort again.  Lock contention will be reported only
when compaction in all zones aborted due to lock contention, and therefore
it's not a good idea to try again after reclaim.

In stress-highalloc from mmtests configured to use __GFP_NO_KSWAPD, this
has improved number of THP collapse allocations by 10%, which shows
positive effect on khugepaged.  The benchmark's success rates are
unchanged as it is not recognized as khugepaged.  Numbers of compact_stall
and compact_fail events have however decreased by 20%, with
compact_success still a bit improved, which is good.  With benchmark
configured not to use __GFP_NO_KSWAPD, there is 6% improvement in THP
collapse allocations, and only slight improvement in stalls and failures.

When direct sync compaction is often unsuccessful, it may become deferred
for some time to avoid further useless attempts, both sync and async.
Successful high-order allocations un-defer compaction, while further
unsuccessful compaction attempts prolong the compaction deferred period.

Currently the checking and setting deferred status is performed only on
the preferred zone of the allocation that invoked direct compaction.  But
compaction itself is attempted on all eligible zones in the zonelist, so
the behavior is suboptimal and may lead both to scenarios where 1)
compaction is attempted uselessly, or 2) where it's not attempted despite
good chances of succeeding, as shown on the examples below:

1) A direct compaction with Normal preferred zone failed and set
   deferred compaction for the Normal zone.  Another unrelated direct
   compaction with DMA32 as preferred zone will attempt to compact DMA32
   zone even though the first compaction attempt also included DMA32 zone.

   In another scenario, compaction with Normal preferred zone failed to
   compact Normal zone, but succeeded in the DMA32 zone, so it will not
   defer compaction.  In the next attempt, it will try Normal zone which
   will fail again, instead of skipping Normal zone and trying DMA32
   directly.

2) Kswapd will balance DMA32 zone and reset defer status based on
   watermarks looking good.  A direct compaction with preferred Normal
   zone will skip compaction of all zones including DMA32 because Normal
   was still deferred.  The allocation might have succeeded in DMA32, but
   won't.

This patch makes compaction deferring work on individual zone basis
instead of preferred zone.  For each zone, it checks compaction_deferred()
to decide if the zone should be skipped.  If watermarks fail after
compacting the zone, defer_compaction() is called.  The zone where
watermarks passed can still be deferred when the allocation attempt is
unsuccessful.  When allocation is successful, compaction_defer_reset() is
called for the zone containing the allocated page.  This approach should
approximate calling defer_compaction() only on zones where compaction was
attempted and did not yield allocated page.  There might be corner cases
but that is inevitable as long as the decision to stop compacting dues not
guarantee that a page will be allocated.

Due to a new COMPACT_DEFERRED return value, some functions relying
implicitly on COMPACT_SKIPPED = 0 had to be updated, with comments made
more accurate.  The did_some_progress output parameter of
__alloc_pages_direct_compact() is removed completely, as the caller
actually does not use it after compaction sets it - it is only considered
when direct reclaim sets it.

During testing on a two-node machine with a single very small Normal zone
on node 1, this patch has improved success rates in stress-highalloc
mmtests benchmark.  The success here were previously made worse by commit
3a025760 ("mm: page_alloc: spill to remote nodes before waking
kswapd") as kswapd was no longer resetting often enough the deferred
compaction for the Normal zone, and DMA32 zones on both nodes were thus
not considered for compaction.  On different machine, success rates were
improved with __GFP_NO_KSWAPD allocations.

Currently memory-hotplug has two limits:

1. If the memory block is in ZONE_NORMAL, you can change it to
   ZONE_MOVABLE, but this memory block must be adjacent to ZONE_MOVABLE.

2. If the memory block is in ZONE_MOVABLE, you can change it to
   ZONE_NORMAL, but this memory block must be adjacent to ZONE_NORMAL.

With this patch, we can easy to know a memory block can be onlined to
which zone, and don't need to know the above two limits.

Updated the related Documentation.

Because of chicken and egg problem, initialization of SLAB is really
complicated.  We need to allocate cpu cache through SLAB to make the
kmem_cache work, but before initialization of kmem_cache, allocation
through SLAB is impossible.

On the other hand, SLUB does initialization in a more simple way.  It uses
percpu allocator to allocate cpu cache so there is no chicken and egg
problem.

So, this patch try to use percpu allocator in SLAB.  This simplifies the
initialization step in SLAB so that we could maintain SLAB code more
easily.

In my testing there is no performance difference.

This implementation relies on percpu allocator.  Because percpu allocator
uses vmalloc address space, vmalloc address space could be exhausted by
this change on many cpu system with *32 bit* kernel.  This implementation
can cover 1024 cpus in worst case by following calculation.

Worst: 1024 cpus * 4 bytes for pointer * 300 kmem_caches *
	120 objects per cpu_cache = 140 MB
Normal: 1024 cpus * 4 bytes for pointer * 150 kmem_caches(slab merge) *
	80 objects per cpu_cache = 46 MB

Anton noticed (http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg67489.html) that
on ppc LPARs with memoryless nodes, a large amount of memory was consumed
by slabs and was marked unreclaimable.  He tracked it down to slab
deactivations in the SLUB core when we allocate remotely, leading to poor
efficiency always when memoryless nodes are present.

After much discussion, Joonsoo provided a few patches that help
significantly.  They don't resolve the problem altogether:

 - memory hotplug still needs testing, that is when a memoryless node
   becomes memory-ful, we want to dtrt
 - there are other reasons for going off-node than memoryless nodes,
   e.g., fully exhausted local nodes

Neither case is resolved with this series, but I don't think that should
block their acceptance, as they can be explored/resolved with follow-on
patches.

The series consists of:

[1/3] topology: add support for node_to_mem_node() to determine the
      fallback node

[2/3] slub: fallback to node_to_mem_node() node if allocating on
      memoryless node

      - Joonsoo's patches to cache the nearest node with memory for each
        NUMA node

[3/3] Partial revert of 81c98869 (""kthread: ensure locality of
      task_struct allocations")

 - At Tejun's request, keep the knowledge of memoryless node fallback
   to the allocator core.

This patch (of 3):

We need to determine the fallback node in slub allocator if the allocation
target node is memoryless node.  Without it, the SLUB wrongly select the
node which has no memory and can't use a partial slab, because of node
mismatch.  Introduced function, node_to_mem_node(X), will return a node Y
with memory that has the nearest distance.  If X is memoryless node, it
will return nearest distance node, but, if X is normal node, it will
return itself.

We will use this function in following patch to determine the fallback
node.

Now, we track caller if tracing or slab debugging is enabled.  If they are
disabled, we could save one argument passing overhead by calling
__kmalloc(_node)().  But, I think that it would be marginal.  Furthermore,
default slab allocator, SLUB, doesn't use this technique so I think that
it's okay to change this situation.

After this change, we can turn on/off CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB without full
kernel build and remove some complicated '#if' defintion.  It looks more
benefitial to me.

We don't need to keep kmem_cache definition in include/linux/slab.h if we
don't need to inline kmem_cache_size().  According to my code inspection,
this function is only called at lc_create() in lib/lru_cache.c which may
be called at initialization phase of something, so we don't need to inline
it.  Therfore, move it to slab_common.c and move kmem_cache definition to
internal header.

After this change, we can change kmem_cache definition easily without full
kernel build.  For instance, we can turn on/off CONFIG_SLUB_STATS without
full kernel build.

- Rename vm_is_stack() to task_of_stack() and change it to return
  "struct task_struct *" rather than the global (and thus wrong in
  general) pid_t.

- Add the new pid_of_stack() helper which calls task_of_stack() and
  uses the right namespace to report the correct pid_t.

  Unfortunately we need to define this helper twice, in task_mmu.c
  and in task_nommu.c. perhaps it makes sense to add fs/proc/util.c
  and move at least pid_of_stack/task_of_stack there to avoid the
  code duplication.

- Change show_map_vma() and show_numa_map() to use the new helper.

Testing xmit_more support with netperf and connected UDP sockets,
I found strange dst refcount false sharing.

Current handling of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE is not optimal.

Dropping dst in validate_xmit_skb() is certainly too late in case
packet was queued by cpu X but dequeued by cpu Y

The logical point to take care of drop/force is in __dev_queue_xmit()
before even taking qdisc lock.

As Julian Anastasov pointed out, need for skb_dst() might come from some
packet schedulers or classifiers.

This patch adds new helper to cleanly express needs of various drivers
or qdiscs/classifiers.

Drivers that need skb_dst() in their ndo_start_xmit() should call
following helper in their setup instead of the prior :

	dev->priv_flags &= ~IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE;
->
	netif_keep_dst(dev);

Instead of using a single bit, we use two bits, one being
eventually rebuilt in bonding/team drivers.

The other one, is permanent and blocks IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE being
rebuilt in bonding/team. Eventually, we could add something
smarter later.

Some TSO engines might have a too heavy setup cost, that impacts
performance on hosts sending small bursts (2 MSS per packet).

This patch adds a device gso_min_segs, allowing drivers to set
a minimum segment size for TSO packets, according to the NIC
performance.

Tested on a mlx4 NIC, this allows to get a ~110% increase of
throughput when sending 2 MSS per packet.

SKB_FCLONE_UNAVAILABLE has overloaded meaning depending on type of skb.
1: If skb is allocated from head_cache, it indicates fclone is not available.
2: If skb is a companion fclone skb (allocated from fclone_cache), it indicates
it is available to be used.

To avoid confusion for case 2 above, this patch  replaces
SKB_FCLONE_UNAVAILABLE with SKB_FCLONE_FREE where appropriate. For fclone
companion skbs, this indicates it is free for use.

SKB_FCLONE_UNAVAILABLE will now simply indicate skb is from head_cache and
cannot / will not have a companion fclone.

Validation of skb can be pretty expensive :

GSO segmentation and/or checksum computations.

We can do this without holding qdisc lock, so that other cpus
can queue additional packets.

Trick is that requeued packets were already validated, so we carry
a boolean so that sch_direct_xmit() can validate a fresh skb list,
or directly use an old one.

Tested on 40Gb NIC (8 TX queues) and 200 concurrent flows, 48 threads
host.

Turning TSO on or off had no effect on throughput, only few more cpu
cycles. Lock contention on qdisc lock disappeared.

Same if disabling TX checksum offload.
