Now that all first chunk allocator helpers allocate and map the first chunk themselves, there's no need to have optional default alloc/map in pcpu_setup_first_chunk(). Drop @populate_pte_fn and only leave @dyn_size optional and make all other params mandatory. This makes it much easier to follow what pcpu_setup_first_chunk() is doing and what actual differences tweaking each parameter results in.

Generalize and move x86 setup_pcpu_lpage() into pcpu_lpage_first_chunk(). setup_pcpu_lpage() now is a simple wrapper around the generalized version. Other than taking size parameters and using arch supplied callbacks to allocate/free/map memory, pcpu_lpage_first_chunk() is identical to the original implementation. This simplifies arch code and will help converting more archs to dynamic percpu allocator. While at it, factor out pcpu_calc_fc_sizes() which is common to pcpu_embed_first_chunk() and pcpu_lpage_first_chunk().

At first, percpu first chunk was always setup page-by-page by the generic code. To add other allocators, different parts of the generic initialization was made optional. Now we have three allocators - embed, remap and 4k. embed and remap fully handle allocation and mapping of the first chunk while 4k still depends on generic code for those. This makes the generic alloc/map paths specifci to 4k and makes the code unnecessary complicated with optional generic behaviors. This patch makes the 4k allocator to allocate and map memory directly instead of depending on the generic code. The only outside visible change is that now dynamic area in the first chunk is allocated up-front instead of on-demand. This doesn't make any meaningful difference as the area is minimal (usually less than a page, just enough to fill the alignment) on 4k allocator. Plus, dynamic area in the first chunk usually gets fully used anyway. This will allow simplification of pcpu_setpu_first_chunk() and removal of chunk->page array.

balance_dirty_pages can overreact and move all of the dirty pages to writeback unnecessarily. balance_dirty_pages makes its decision to throttle based on the number of dirty plus writeback pages that are over the calculated limit,so it will continue to move pages even when there are plenty of pages in writeback and less than the threshold still dirty. This allows it to overshoot its limits and move all the dirty pages to writeback while waiting for the drives to catch up and empty the writeback list. A simple fio test easily demonstrates this problem. fio --name=f1 --directory=/disk1 --size=2G -rw=write --name=f2 --directory=/disk2 --size=1G --rw=write --startdelay=10 This is the simplest fix I could find, but I'm not entirely sure that it alone will be enough for all cases. But it certainly is an improvement on my desktop machine writing to 2 disks. Do we need something more for machines with large arrays where bdi_threshold * number_of_drives is greater than the dirty_ratio ?

With the introduction of follow_pfn() as an exported symbol, modules have begun making use of it. Unfortunately this was not reflected on nommu at the time, so the in-tree users have subsequently all blown up with link errors there.

This patch makes most !CONFIG_HAVE_SETUP_PER_CPU_AREA archs use dynamic percpu allocator. The first chunk is allocated using embedding helper and 8k is reserved for modules. This ensures that the new allocator behaves almost identically to the original allocator as long as static percpu variables are concerned, so it shouldn't introduce much breakage. s390 and alpha use custom SHIFT_PERCPU_PTR() to work around addressing range limit the addressing model imposes. Unfortunately, this breaks if the address is specified using a variable, so for now, the two archs aren't converted. The following architectures are affected by this change. * sh * arm * cris * mips * sparc(32) * blackfin * avr32 * parisc (broken, under investigation) * m32r * powerpc(32) As this change makes the dynamic allocator the default one, CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_PER_CPU_AREA is replaced with its invert - CONFIG_HAVE_LEGACY_PER_CPU_AREA, which is added to yet-to-be converted archs. These archs implement their own setup_per_cpu_areas() and the conversion is not trivial. * powerpc(64) * sparc(64) * ia64 * alpha * s390 Boot and batch alloc/free tests on x86_32 with debug code (x86_32 doesn't use default first chunk initialization). Compile tested on sparc(32), powerpc(32), arm and alpha. Kyle McMartin reported that this change breaks parisc. The problem is still under investigation and he is okay with pushing this patch forward and fixing parisc later.

According to Andi, it isn't clear whether lpage allocator is worth the trouble as there are many processors where PMD TLB is far scarcer than PTE TLB. The advantage or disadvantage probably depends on the actual size of percpu area and specific processor. As performance degradation due to TLB pressure tends to be highly workload specific and subtle, it is difficult to decide which way to go without more data. This patch implements percpu_alloc kernel parameter to allow selecting which first chunk allocator to use to ease debugging and testing. While at it, make sure all the failure paths report why something failed to help determining why certain allocator isn't working. Also, kill the "Great future plan" comment which had already been realized quite some time ago.

The fault handling routines really want more fine-grained flags than a single "was it a write fault" boolean - the callers will want to set flags like "you can return a retry error" etc. And that's actually how the VM works internally, but right now the top-level fault handling functions in mm/memory.c all pass just the 'write_access' boolean around. This switches them over to pass around the FAULT_FLAG_xyzzy 'flags' variable instead. The 'write_access' calling convention still exists for the exported 'handle_mm_fault()' function, but that is next. Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
