      memcg: fix race at move_parent around compound_order() · 52dbb905
      由 KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 提交于 
      A fix up mem_cgroup_move_parent() which use compound_order() in
asynchronous manner.  This compound_order() may return unknown value
because we don't take lock.  Use PageTransHuge() and HPAGE_SIZE instead
of it.

Also clean up for mem_cgroup_move_parent().
 - remove unnecessary initialization of local variable.
 - rename charge_size -> page_size
 - remove unnecessary (wrong) comment.
 - added a comment about THP.

Note:
 Current design take compound_page_lock() in caller of move_account().
 This should be revisited when we implement direct move_task of hugepage
 without splitting.

      mm: migration: clarify migrate_pages() comment · 28bd6578
      由 Minchan Kim 提交于 
      Callers of migrate_pages should putback_lru_pages to return pages
isolated to LRU or free list.  Now comment is rather confusing.  It says
caller always have to call it.

It is more clear to point out that the caller has to call it if
migrate_pages's return value isn't zero.

      mm: compaction: don't depend on HUGETLB_PAGE · 33a93877
      由 Andrea Arcangeli 提交于 
      Commit 5d689240 ("thp: select CONFIG_COMPACTION if TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE
enabled") causes this warning during the configuration process:

  warning: (TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE) selects COMPACTION which has unmet
  direct dependencies (EXPERIMENTAL && HUGETLB_PAGE && MMU)

COMPACTION doesn't depend on HUGETLB_PAGE, it doesn't depend on THP
either, it is also useful for regular alloc_pages(order > 0) including
the very kernel stack during fork (THREAD_ORDER = 1).  It's always
better to enable COMPACTION.

The warning should be an error because we would end up with MIGRATION
not selected, and COMPACTION wouldn't work without migration (despite it
seems to build with an inline migrate_pages returning -ENOSYS).

I'd also like to remove EXPERIMENTAL: compaction has been in the kernel
for some releases (for full safety the default remains disabled which I
think is enough).

      由 Jesper Juhl 提交于 
      In mm/memcontrol.c::mem_cgroup_move_parent() there's a path that jumps
to the 'put_back' label

  	ret = __mem_cgroup_try_charge(NULL, gfp_mask, &parent, false, charge);
  	if (ret || !parent)
  		goto put_back;

where we'll

  	if (charge > PAGE_SIZE)
  		compound_unlock_irqrestore(page, flags);

but, we have not assigned anything to 'flags' at this point, nor have we
called 'compound_lock_irqsave()' (which is what sets 'flags').  The
'put_back' label should be moved below the call to
compound_unlock_irqrestore() as per this patch.

      mm: clear pages_scanned only if draining a pcp adds pages to the buddy allocator · 2ff754fa
      由 David Rientjes 提交于 
      Commit 0e093d99 ("writeback: do not sleep on the congestion queue if
there are no congested BDIs or if significant congestion is not being
encountered in the current zone") uncovered a livelock in the page
allocator that resulted in tasks infinitely looping trying to find
memory and kswapd running at 100% cpu.

The issue occurs because drain_all_pages() is called immediately
following direct reclaim when no memory is freed and try_to_free_pages()
returns non-zero because all zones in the zonelist do not have their
all_unreclaimable flag set.

When draining the per-cpu pagesets back to the buddy allocator for each
zone, the zone->pages_scanned counter is cleared to avoid erroneously
setting zone->all_unreclaimable later.  The problem is that no pages may
actually be drained and, thus, the unreclaimable logic never fails
direct reclaim so the oom killer may be invoked.

This apparently only manifested after wait_iff_congested() was
introduced and the zone was full of anonymous memory that would not
congest the backing store.  The page allocator would infinitely loop if
there were no other tasks waiting to be scheduled and clear
zone->pages_scanned because of drain_all_pages() as the result of this
change before kswapd could scan enough pages to trigger the reclaim
logic.  Additionally, with every loop of the page allocator and in the
reclaim path, kswapd would be kicked and would end up running at 100%
cpu.  In this scenario, current and kswapd are all running continuously
with kswapd incrementing zone->pages_scanned and current clearing it.

The problem is even more pronounced when current swaps some of its
memory to swap cache and the reclaimable logic then considers all active
anonymous memory in the all_unreclaimable logic, which requires a much
higher zone->pages_scanned value for try_to_free_pages() to return zero
that is never attainable in this scenario.

Before wait_iff_congested(), the page allocator would incur an
unconditional timeout and allow kswapd to elevate zone->pages_scanned to
a level that the oom killer would be called the next time it loops.

The fix is to only attempt to drain pcp pages if there is actually a
quantity to be drained.  The unconditional clearing of
zone->pages_scanned in free_pcppages_bulk() need not be changed since
other callers already ensure that draining will occur.  This patch
ensures that free_pcppages_bulk() will actually free memory before
calling into it from drain_all_pages() so zone->pages_scanned is only
cleared if appropriate.

      mm: fix deferred congestion timeout if preferred zone is not allowed · f33261d7
      由 David Rientjes 提交于 
      Before 0e093d99 ("writeback: do not sleep on the congestion queue if
there are no congested BDIs or if significant congestion is not being
encountered in the current zone"), preferred_zone was only used for NUMA
statistics, to determine the zoneidx from which to allocate from given
the type requested, and whether to utilize memory compaction.

wait_iff_congested(), though, uses preferred_zone to determine if the
congestion wait should be deferred because its dirty pages are backed by
a congested bdi.  This incorrectly defers the timeout and busy loops in
the page allocator with various cond_resched() calls if preferred_zone
is not allowed in the current context, usually consuming 100% of a cpu.

This patch ensures preferred_zone is an allowed zone in the fastpath
depending on whether current is constrained by its cpuset or nodes in
its mempolicy (when the nodemask passed is non-NULL).  This is correct
since the fastpath allocation always passes ALLOC_CPUSET when trying to
allocate memory.  In the slowpath, this patch resets preferred_zone to
the first zone of the allowed type when the allocation is not
constrained by current's cpuset, i.e.  it does not pass ALLOC_CPUSET.

This patch also ensures preferred_zone is from the set of allowed nodes
when called from within direct reclaim since allocations are always
constrained by cpusets in this context (it is blockable).

Both of these uses of cpuset_current_mems_allowed are protected by
get_mems_allowed().

      mm/pgtable-generic.c: fix CONFIG_SWAP=n build · f95ba941
      由 Andrew Morton 提交于 
      mips (and sparc32):

  In file included from arch/mips/include/asm/tlb.h:21,
                   from mm/pgtable-generic.c:9:
  include/asm-generic/tlb.h: In function `tlb_flush_mmu':

  include/asm-generic/tlb.h: In function `tlb_remove_page':
  include/asm-generic/tlb.h:105: error: implicit declaration of function `page_cache_release'

free_pages_and_swap_cache() and free_page_and_swap_cache() are macros
which call release_pages() and page_cache_release().  The obvious fix is
to include pagemap.h in swap.h, where those macros are defined.  But that
breaks sparc for weird reasons.

So fix it within mm/pgtable-generic.c instead.

      pmdp_get_and_clear/pmdp_clear_flush/pmdp_splitting_flush were trapped as
BUG() and they were defined only to diminish the risk of build issues on
not-x86 archs and to be consistent with the generic pte methods previously
defined in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h.

But they are causing more trouble than they were supposed to solve, so
it's simpler not to define them when THP is off.

This is also correcting the export of pmdp_splitting_flush which is
currently unused (x86 isn't using the generic implementation in
mm/pgtable-generic.c and no other arch needs that [yet]).

      memcg: fix memory migration of shmem swapcache · 50de1dd9
      由 Daisuke Nishimura 提交于 
      In the current implementation mem_cgroup_end_migration() decides whether
the page migration has succeeded or not by checking "oldpage->mapping".

But if we are tring to migrate a shmem swapcache, the page->mapping of it
is NULL from the begining, so the check would be invalid.  As a result,
mem_cgroup_end_migration() assumes the migration has succeeded even if
it's not, so "newpage" would be freed while it's not uncharged.

This patch fixes it by passing mem_cgroup_end_migration() the result of
the page migration.

      memcg: fix deadlock between cpuset and memcg · dfe076b0
      由 Daisuke Nishimura 提交于 
      Commit b1dd693e ("memcg: avoid deadlock between move charge and
try_charge()") can cause another deadlock about mmap_sem on task migration
if cpuset and memcg are mounted onto the same mount point.

After the commit, cgroup_attach_task() has sequence like:

cgroup_attach_task()
  ss->can_attach()
    cpuset_can_attach()
    mem_cgroup_can_attach()
      down_read(&mmap_sem)        (1)
  ss->attach()
    cpuset_attach()
      mpol_rebind_mm()
        down_write(&mmap_sem)     (2)
        up_write(&mmap_sem)
      cpuset_migrate_mm()
        do_migrate_pages()
          down_read(&mmap_sem)
          up_read(&mmap_sem)
    mem_cgroup_move_task()
      mem_cgroup_clear_mc()
        up_read(&mmap_sem)

We can cause deadlock at (2) because we've already aquire the mmap_sem at (1).

But the commit itself is necessary to fix deadlocks which have existed
before the commit like:

Ex.1)
                move charge             |        try charge
  --------------------------------------+------------------------------
    mem_cgroup_can_attach()             |  down_write(&mmap_sem)
      mc.moving_task = current          |    ..
      mem_cgroup_precharge_mc()         |  __mem_cgroup_try_charge()
        mem_cgroup_count_precharge()    |    prepare_to_wait()
          down_read(&mmap_sem)          |    if (mc.moving_task)
          -> cannot aquire the lock     |    -> true
                                        |      schedule()
                                        |      -> move charge should wake it up

Ex.2)
                move charge             |        try charge
  --------------------------------------+------------------------------
    mem_cgroup_can_attach()             |
      mc.moving_task = current          |
      mem_cgroup_precharge_mc()         |
        mem_cgroup_count_precharge()    |
          down_read(&mmap_sem)          |
          ..                            |
          up_read(&mmap_sem)            |
                                        |  down_write(&mmap_sem)
    mem_cgroup_move_task()              |    ..
      mem_cgroup_move_charge()          |  __mem_cgroup_try_charge()
        down_read(&mmap_sem)            |    prepare_to_wait()
        -> cannot aquire the lock       |    if (mc.moving_task)
                                        |    -> true
                                        |      schedule()
                                        |      -> move charge should wake it up

This patch fixes all of these problems by:
1. revert the commit.
2. To fix the Ex.1, we set mc.moving_task after mem_cgroup_count_precharge()
   has released the mmap_sem.
3. To fix the Ex.2, we use down_read_trylock() instead of down_read() in
   mem_cgroup_move_charge() and, if it has failed to aquire the lock, cancel
   all extra charges, wake up all waiters, and retry trylock.

      Adding the number of swap pages to the byte limit of a memory control
group makes no sense.  Convert the pages to bytes before adding them.

The only user of this code is the OOM killer, and the way it is used means
that the error results in a higher OOM badness value.  Since the cgroup
limit is the same for all tasks in the cgroup, the error should have no
practical impact at the moment.

But let's not wait for future or changing users to trip over it.

      memcg: add lock to synchronize page accounting and migration · dbd4ea78
      由 KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 提交于 
      Introduce a new bit spin lock, PCG_MOVE_LOCK, to synchronize the page
accounting and migration code.  This reworks the locking scheme of
_update_stat() and _move_account() by adding new lock bit PCG_MOVE_LOCK,
which is always taken under IRQ disable.

1. If pages are being migrated from a memcg, then updates to that
   memcg page statistics are protected by grabbing PCG_MOVE_LOCK using
   move_lock_page_cgroup().  In an upcoming commit, memcg dirty page
   accounting will be updating memcg page accounting (specifically: num
   writeback pages) from IRQ context (softirq).  Avoid a deadlocking
   nested spin lock attempt by disabling irq on the local processor when
   grabbing the PCG_MOVE_LOCK.

2. lock for update_page_stat is used only for avoiding race with
   move_account().  So, IRQ awareness of lock_page_cgroup() itself is not
   a problem.  The problem is between mem_cgroup_update_page_stat() and
   mem_cgroup_move_account_page().

Trade-off:
  * Changing lock_page_cgroup() to always disable IRQ (or
    local_bh) has some impacts on performance and I think
    it's bad to disable IRQ when it's not necessary.
  * adding a new lock makes move_account() slower.  Score is
    here.

Performance Impact: moving a 8G anon process.

Before:
	real    0m0.792s
	user    0m0.000s
	sys     0m0.780s

After:
	real    0m0.854s
	user    0m0.000s
	sys     0m0.842s

This score is bad but planned patches for optimization can reduce
this impact.

      memcg: create extensible page stat update routines · 2a7106f2
      由 Greg Thelen 提交于 
      Replace usage of the mem_cgroup_update_file_mapped() memcg
statistic update routine with two new routines:
* mem_cgroup_inc_page_stat()
* mem_cgroup_dec_page_stat()

As before, only the file_mapped statistic is managed.  However, these more
general interfaces allow for new statistics to be more easily added.  New
statistics are added with memcg dirty page accounting.

      mm: batch activate_page() to reduce lock contention · 744ed144
      由 Shaohua Li 提交于 
      The zone->lru_lock is heavily contented in workload where activate_page()
is frequently used.  We could do batch activate_page() to reduce the lock
contention.  The batched pages will be added into zone list when the pool
is full or page reclaim is trying to drain them.

For example, in a 4 socket 64 CPU system, create a sparse file and 64
processes, processes shared map to the file.  Each process read access the
whole file and then exit.  The process exit will do unmap_vmas() and cause
a lot of activate_page() call.  In such workload, we saw about 58% total
time reduction with below patch.  Other workloads with a lot of
activate_page also benefits a lot too.

I tested some microbenchmarks:
case-anon-cow-rand-mt		0.58%
case-anon-cow-rand		-3.30%
case-anon-cow-seq-mt		-0.51%
case-anon-cow-seq		-5.68%
case-anon-r-rand-mt		0.23%
case-anon-r-rand		0.81%
case-anon-r-seq-mt		-0.71%
case-anon-r-seq			-1.99%
case-anon-rx-rand-mt		2.11%
case-anon-rx-seq-mt		3.46%
case-anon-w-rand-mt		-0.03%
case-anon-w-rand		-0.50%
case-anon-w-seq-mt		-1.08%
case-anon-w-seq			-0.12%
case-anon-wx-rand-mt		-5.02%
case-anon-wx-seq-mt		-1.43%
case-fork			1.65%
case-fork-sleep			-0.07%
case-fork-withmem		1.39%
case-hugetlb			-0.59%
case-lru-file-mmap-read-mt	-0.54%
case-lru-file-mmap-read		0.61%
case-lru-file-mmap-read-rand	-2.24%
case-lru-file-readonce		-0.64%
case-lru-file-readtwice		-11.69%
case-lru-memcg			-1.35%
case-mmap-pread-rand-mt		1.88%
case-mmap-pread-rand		-15.26%
case-mmap-pread-seq-mt		0.89%
case-mmap-pread-seq		-69.72%
case-mmap-xread-rand-mt		0.71%
case-mmap-xread-seq-mt		0.38%

The most significent are:
case-lru-file-readtwice		-11.69%
case-mmap-pread-rand		-15.26%
case-mmap-pread-seq		-69.72%

which use activate_page a lot.  others are basically variations because
each run has slightly difference.
