      Don't lock guardpage if the stack is growing up · a09a79f6
      Mikulas Patocka 提交于
      Linux kernel excludes guard page when performing mlock on a VMA with
      down-growing stack. However, some architectures have up-growing stack
      and locking the guard page should be excluded in this case too.
      
      This patch fixes lvm2 on PA-RISC (and possibly other architectures with
      up-growing stack). lvm2 calculates number of used pages when locking and
      when unlocking and reports an internal error if the numbers mismatch.
      
      [ Patch changed fairly extensively to also fix /proc/<pid>/maps for the
        grows-up case, and to move things around a bit to clean it all up and
        share the infrstructure with the /proc bits.

      mm: thp: fix /dev/zero MAP_PRIVATE and vm_flags cleanups · 78f11a25
      Andrea Arcangeli 提交于
      The huge_memory.c THP page fault was allowed to run if vm_ops was null
      (which would succeed for /dev/zero MAP_PRIVATE, as the f_op->mmap wouldn't
      setup a special vma->vm_ops and it would fallback to regular anonymous
      memory) but other THP logics weren't fully activated for vmas with vm_file
      not NULL (/dev/zero has a not NULL vma->vm_file).
      
      So this removes the vm_file checks so that /dev/zero also can safely use
      THP (the other albeit safer approach to fix this bug would have been to
      prevent the THP initial page fault to run if vm_file was set).
      
      After removing the vm_file checks, this also makes huge_memory.c stricter
      in khugepaged for the DEBUG_VM=y case.  It doesn't replace the vm_file
      check with a is_pfn_mapping check (but it keeps checking for VM_PFNMAP
      under VM_BUG_ON) because for a is_cow_mapping() mapping VM_PFNMAP should
      only be allowed to exist before the first page fault, and in turn when
      vma->anon_vma is null (so preventing khugepaged registration).  So I tend
      to think the previous comment saying if vm_file was set, VM_PFNMAP might
      have been set and we could still be registered in khugepaged (despite
      anon_vma was not NULL to be registered in khugepaged) was too paranoid.
      The is_linear_pfn_mapping check is also I think superfluous (as described
      by comment) but under DEBUG_VM it is safe to stay.

      pagewalk: only split huge pages when necessary · 03319327
      Dave Hansen 提交于
      Right now, if a mm_walk has either ->pte_entry or ->pmd_entry set, it will
      unconditionally split any transparent huge pages it runs in to.  In
      practice, that means that anyone doing a
      
      	cat /proc/$pid/smaps
      
      will unconditionally break down every huge page in the process and depend
      on khugepaged to re-collapse it later.  This is fairly suboptimal.
      
      This patch changes that behavior.  It teaches each ->pmd_entry handler
      (there are five) that they must break down the THPs themselves.  Also, the
      _generic_ code will never break down a THP unless a ->pte_entry handler is
      actually set.
      
      This means that the ->pmd_entry handlers can now choose to deal with THPs
      without breaking them down.

      mm: allow GUP to fail instead of waiting on a page · 318b275f
      Gleb Natapov 提交于
      GUP user may want to try to acquire a reference to a page if it is already
      in memory, but not if IO, to bring it in, is needed.  For example KVM may
      tell vcpu to schedule another guest process if current one is trying to
      access swapped out page.  Meanwhile, the page will be swapped in and the
      guest process, that depends on it, will be able to run again.
      
      This patch adds FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT (suggested by Linus) and
      FOLL_NOWAIT follow_page flags.  FAULT_FLAG_RETRY_NOWAIT, when used in
      conjunction with VM_FAULT_ALLOW_RETRY, indicates to handle_mm_fault that
      it shouldn't drop mmap_sem and wait on a page, but return VM_FAULT_RETRY
      instead.

      oom: suppress nodes that are not allowed from meminfo on oom kill · ddd588b5
      David Rientjes 提交于
      The oom killer is extremely verbose for machines with a large number of
      cpus and/or nodes.  This verbosity can often be harmful if it causes other
      important messages to be scrolled from the kernel log and incurs a
      signicant time delay, specifically for kernels with CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT >
      8.
      
      This patch causes only memory information to be displayed for nodes that
      are allowed by current's cpuset when dumping the VM state.  Information
      for all other nodes is irrelevant to the oom condition; we don't care if
      there's an abundance of memory elsewhere if we can't access it.
      
      This only affects the behavior of dumping memory information when an oom
      is triggered.  Other dumps, such as for sysrq+m, still display the
      unfiltered form when using the existing show_mem() interface.
      
      Additionally, the per-cpu pageset statistics are extremely verbose in oom
      killer output, so it is now suppressed.  This removes
      
      	nodes_weight(current->mems_allowed) * (1 + nr_cpus)
      
      lines from the oom killer output.
      
      Callers may use __show_mem(SHOW_MEM_FILTER_NODES) to filter disallowed
      nodes.

      thp: transparent hugepage core · 71e3aac0
      Andrea Arcangeli 提交于
      Lately I've been working to make KVM use hugepages transparently without
      the usual restrictions of hugetlbfs.  Some of the restrictions I'd like to
      see removed:
      
      1) hugepages have to be swappable or the guest physical memory remains
         locked in RAM and can't be paged out to swap
      
      2) if a hugepage allocation fails, regular pages should be allocated
         instead and mixed in the same vma without any failure and without
         userland noticing
      
      3) if some task quits and more hugepages become available in the
         buddy, guest physical memory backed by regular pages should be
         relocated on hugepages automatically in regions under
         madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) (ideally event driven by waking up the
         kernel deamon if the order=HPAGE_PMD_SHIFT-PAGE_SHIFT list becomes
         not null)
      
      4) avoidance of reservation and maximization of use of hugepages whenever
         possible. Reservation (needed to avoid runtime fatal faliures) may be ok for
         1 machine with 1 database with 1 database cache with 1 database cache size
         known at boot time. It's definitely not feasible with a virtualization
         hypervisor usage like RHEV-H that runs an unknown number of virtual machines
         with an unknown size of each virtual machine with an unknown amount of
         pagecache that could be potentially useful in the host for guest not using
         O_DIRECT (aka cache=off).
      
      hugepages in the virtualization hypervisor (and also in the guest!) are
      much more important than in a regular host not using virtualization,
      becasue with NPT/EPT they decrease the tlb-miss cacheline accesses from 24
      to 19 in case only the hypervisor uses transparent hugepages, and they
      decrease the tlb-miss cacheline accesses from 19 to 15 in case both the
      linux hypervisor and the linux guest both uses this patch (though the
      guest will limit the addition speedup to anonymous regions only for
      now...).  Even more important is that the tlb miss handler is much slower
      on a NPT/EPT guest than for a regular shadow paging or no-virtualization
      scenario.  So maximizing the amount of virtual memory cached by the TLB
      pays off significantly more with NPT/EPT than without (even if there would
      be no significant speedup in the tlb-miss runtime).
      
      The first (and more tedious) part of this work requires allowing the VM to
      handle anonymous hugepages mixed with regular pages transparently on
      regular anonymous vmas.  This is what this patch tries to achieve in the
      least intrusive possible way.  We want hugepages and hugetlb to be used in
      a way so that all applications can benefit without changes (as usual we
      leverage the KVM virtualization design: by improving the Linux VM at
      large, KVM gets the performance boost too).
      
      The most important design choice is: always fallback to 4k allocation if
      the hugepage allocation fails!  This is the _very_ opposite of some large
      pagecache patches that failed with -EIO back then if a 64k (or similar)
      allocation failed...
      
      Second important decision (to reduce the impact of the feature on the
      existing pagetable handling code) is that at any time we can split an
      hugepage into 512 regular pages and it has to be done with an operation
      that can't fail.  This way the reliability of the swapping isn't decreased
      (no need to allocate memory when we are short on memory to swap) and it's
      trivial to plug a split_huge_page* one-liner where needed without
      polluting the VM.  Over time we can teach mprotect, mremap and friends to
      handle pmd_trans_huge natively without calling split_huge_page*.  The fact
      it can't fail isn't just for swap: if split_huge_page would return -ENOMEM
      (instead of the current void) we'd need to rollback the mprotect from the
      middle of it (ideally including undoing the split_vma) which would be a
      big change and in the very wrong direction (it'd likely be simpler not to
      call split_huge_page at all and to teach mprotect and friends to handle
      hugepages instead of rolling them back from the middle).  In short the
      very value of split_huge_page is that it can't fail.
      
      The collapsing and madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) part will remain separated and
      incremental and it'll just be an "harmless" addition later if this initial
      part is agreed upon.  It also should be noted that locking-wise replacing
      regular pages with hugepages is going to be very easy if compared to what
      I'm doing below in split_huge_page, as it will only happen when
      page_count(page) matches page_mapcount(page) if we can take the PG_lock
      and mmap_sem in write mode.  collapse_huge_page will be a "best effort"
      that (unlike split_huge_page) can fail at the minimal sign of trouble and
      we can try again later.  collapse_huge_page will be similar to how KSM
      works and the madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) will work similar to
      madvise(MADV_MERGEABLE).
      
      The default I like is that transparent hugepages are used at page fault
      time.  This can be changed with
      /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled.  The control knob can be set
      to three values "always", "madvise", "never" which mean respectively that
      hugepages are always used, or only inside madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) regions,
      or never used.  /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag instead
      controls if the hugepage allocation should defrag memory aggressively
      "always", only inside "madvise" regions, or "never".
      
      The pmd_trans_splitting/pmd_trans_huge locking is very solid.  The
      put_page (from get_user_page users that can't use mmu notifier like
      O_DIRECT) that runs against a __split_huge_page_refcount instead was a
      pain to serialize in a way that would result always in a coherent page
      count for both tail and head.  I think my locking solution with a
      compound_lock taken only after the page_first is valid and is still a
      PageHead should be safe but it surely needs review from SMP race point of
      view.  In short there is no current existing way to serialize the O_DIRECT
      final put_page against split_huge_page_refcount so I had to invent a new
      one (O_DIRECT loses knowledge on the mapping status by the time gup_fast
      returns so...).  And I didn't want to impact all gup/gup_fast users for
      now, maybe if we change the gup interface substantially we can avoid this
      locking, I admit I didn't think too much about it because changing the gup
      unpinning interface would be invasive.
      
      If we ignored O_DIRECT we could stick to the existing compound refcounting
      code, by simply adding a get_user_pages_fast_flags(foll_flags) where KVM
      (and any other mmu notifier user) would call it without FOLL_GET (and if
      FOLL_GET isn't set we'd just BUG_ON if nobody registered itself in the
      current task mmu notifier list yet).  But O_DIRECT is fundamental for
      decent performance of virtualized I/O on fast storage so we can't avoid it
      to solve the race of put_page against split_huge_page_refcount to achieve
      a complete hugepage feature for KVM.
      
      Swap and oom works fine (well just like with regular pages ;).  MMU
      notifier is handled transparently too, with the exception of the young bit
      on the pmd, that didn't have a range check but I think KVM will be fine
      because the whole point of hugepages is that EPT/NPT will also use a huge
      pmd when they notice gup returns pages with PageCompound set, so they
      won't care of a range and there's just the pmd young bit to check in that
      case.
      
      NOTE: in some cases if the L2 cache is small, this may slowdown and waste
      memory during COWs because 4M of memory are accessed in a single fault
      instead of 8k (the payoff is that after COW the program can run faster).
      So we might want to switch the copy_huge_page (and clear_huge_page too) to
      not temporal stores.  I also extensively researched ways to avoid this
      cache trashing with a full prefault logic that would cow in 8k/16k/32k/64k
      up to 1M (I can send those patches that fully implemented prefault) but I
      concluded they're not worth it and they add an huge additional complexity
      and they remove all tlb benefits until the full hugepage has been faulted
      in, to save a little bit of memory and some cache during app startup, but
      they still don't improve substantially the cache-trashing during startup
      if the prefault happens in >4k chunks.  One reason is that those 4k pte
      entries copied are still mapped on a perfectly cache-colored hugepage, so
      the trashing is the worst one can generate in those copies (cow of 4k page
      copies aren't so well colored so they trashes less, but again this results
      in software running faster after the page fault).  Those prefault patches
      allowed things like a pte where post-cow pages were local 4k regular anon
      pages and the not-yet-cowed pte entries were pointing in the middle of
      some hugepage mapped read-only.  If it doesn't payoff substantially with
      todays hardware it will payoff even less in the future with larger l2
      caches, and the prefault logic would blot the VM a lot.  If one is
      emebdded transparent_hugepage can be disabled during boot with sysfs or
      with the boot commandline parameter transparent_hugepage=0 (or
      transparent_hugepage=2 to restrict hugepages inside madvise regions) that
      will ensure not a single hugepage is allocated at boot time.  It is simple
      enough to just disable transparent hugepage globally and let transparent
      hugepages be allocated selectively by applications in the MADV_HUGEPAGE
      region (both at page fault time, and if enabled with the
      collapse_huge_page too through the kernel daemon).
      
      This patch supports only hugepages mapped in the pmd, archs that have
      smaller hugepages will not fit in this patch alone.  Also some archs like
      power have certain tlb limits that prevents mixing different page size in
      the same regions so they will not fit in this framework that requires
      "graceful fallback" to basic PAGE_SIZE in case of physical memory
      fragmentation.  hugetlbfs remains a perfect fit for those because its
      software limits happen to match the hardware limits.  hugetlbfs also
      remains a perfect fit for hugepage sizes like 1GByte that cannot be hoped
      to be found not fragmented after a certain system uptime and that would be
      very expensive to defragment with relocation, so requiring reservation.
      hugetlbfs is the "reservation way", the point of transparent hugepages is
      not to have any reservation at all and maximizing the use of cache and
      hugepages at all times automatically.
      
      Some performance result:

      thp: pte alloc trans splitting · 8ac1f832
      Andrea Arcangeli 提交于
      pte alloc routines must wait for split_huge_page if the pmd is not present
      and not null (i.e.  pmd_trans_splitting).  The additional branches are
      optimized away at compile time by pmd_trans_splitting if the config option
      is off.  However we must pass the vma down in order to know the anon_vma
      lock to wait for.

      huge_memory.c needs it too when it fallbacks in copying hugepages into
      regular fragmented pages if hugepage allocation fails during COW.
