      mm/mmap.c: find_vma(): remove unnecessary if(mm) check · 841e31e5
      Rajman Mekaco 提交于
      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.

      mm: use kcalloc() instead of kzalloc() to allocate array · 4d67d860
      Thomas Meyer 提交于
      The advantage of kcalloc is, that will prevent integer overflows which
      could result from the multiplication of number of elements and size and
      it is also a bit nicer to read.

      mm: fix off-by-one bug in print_nodes_state() · f6238818
      Ryota Ozaki 提交于
      /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 bug was introduced in v2.6.24 (commit bde631a5: "mm: add node

      Mel Gorman 提交于
      There is little motiviation for reclaim_mode_t once RECLAIM_MODE_[A]SYNC
      and lumpy reclaim have been removed.  This patch gets rid of
      reclaim_mode_t as well and improves the documentation about what
      reclaim/compaction is and when it is triggered.

      mm: vmscan: do not stall on writeback during memory compaction · 41ac1999
      Mel Gorman 提交于
      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.

      mm: vmscan: remove lumpy reclaim · c53919ad
      Mel Gorman 提交于
      This series removes lumpy reclaim and some stalling logic that was
      unintentionally being used by memory compaction.  The end result is that
      stalling on dirty pages during page reclaim now depends on
      wait_iff_congested().
      
      Four kernels were compared
      
        3.3.0     vanilla
        3.4.0-rc2 vanilla
        3.4.0-rc2 lumpyremove-v2 is patch one from this series
        3.4.0-rc2 nosync-v2r3 is the full series
      
      Removing lumpy reclaim saves almost 900 bytes of text whereas the full
      series removes 1200 bytes.

      There are behaviour changes in the series and so tests were run with
      monitoring of ftrace events.  This disrupts results so the performance
      results are distorted but the new behaviour should be clearer.
      
      fs-mark running in a threaded configuration showed little of interest as
      it did not push reclaim aggressively

      It looks like here that the full series regresses performance but as
      ftrace showed no usage of wait_iff_congested() or sync reclaim I am
      assuming it's a disruption due to monitoring.  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

      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.

      Success rates are completely hosed for 3.4-rc2 which is almost certainly
      due to commit fe2c2a10 ("vmscan: reclaim at order 0 when compaction
      is enabled").  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

      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

      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.

      mm: remove swap token code · e709ffd6
      Rik van Riel 提交于
      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.

      mm, thp: allow fallback when pte_alloc_one() fails for huge pmd · edad9d2c
      David Rientjes 提交于
      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.

      pagemap.h: fix warning about possibly used before init var · af2e8409

      Commit f56f821f ("mm: extend prefault helpers to fault in more than
      PAGE_SIZE") added in the new functions: fault_in_multipages_writeable()
      and fault_in_multipages_readable().
      
      However, we currently see:
      
        include/linux/pagemap.h:492: warning: 'ret' may be used uninitialized in this function
        include/linux/pagemap.h:492: note: 'ret' was declared here
      
      Unlike a lot of gcc nags, this one appears somewhat legit.  i.e.  passing
      in an invalid negative value of "size" does make it look like all the
      conditionals in there would be bypassed and the uninitialized value would
      be returned.

             and size attribute when deciding whether or not our cached data
             is still valid or not.
           * Don't request NFSv4 post-op attributes on writes in cases such as
             O_DIRECT, where we don't care about data cache consistency, or

           * Don't request NFSv4 post-op attributes on operations such as

             updates: i.e. operations such as OPEN, CREATE, REMOVE, LINK and
             RENAME.
         - Speed up 'ls' and friends by using READDIR rather than READDIRPLUS

      This makes <asm/word-at-a-time.h> actually live up to its promise of
      allowing architectures to help tune the string functions that do their
      work a word at a time.
      
      David had already taken the x86 strncpy_from_user() function, modified
      it to work on sparc, and then done the extra work to make it generically
      useful.  This then expands on that work by making x86 use that generic
      version, completing the circle.
      
      But more importantly, it fixes up the word-at-a-time interfaces so that
      it's now easy to also support things like strnlen_user(), and pretty
      much most random string functions.
      
      David reports that it all works fine on sparc, and Jonas Bonn reported
      that an earlier version of this worked on OpenRISC too.  It's pretty
      easy for architectures to add support for this and just replace their
      private versions with the generic code.

       "Major changes:
      
         - lots of devicetree additions for existing drivers.  I tried hard to
           make sure the bindings are proper.  In more complicated cases, I
           requested acks from people having more experience with them than
           me.  That took a bit of extra time and also some time went into
           discussions with developers about what bindings are and what not.
           I have the feeling that the workflow with bindings should be
           improved to scale better.  I will spend some more thought on
           this...
      
         - i2c-muxes are succesfully used meanwhile, so we dropped
           EXPERIMENTAL for them and renamed the drivers to a standard pattern
           to match the rest of the subsystem.  They can also be used with
           devicetree now.
      
         - ixp2000 was removed since the whole platform goes away.
      
         - cleanups (strlcpy instead of strcpy, NULL instead of 0)
      
         - The rest is typical driver fixes I assume.
      
        All patches have been in linux-next at least since v3.4-rc6."
