The main idea behind this patchset is to reduce the vmstat update overhead by avoiding interrupt enable/disable and the use of per cpu atomics. This patch (of 3): It is better to have a separate folding function because refresh_cpu_vm_stats() also does other things like expire pages in the page allocator caches. If we have a separate function then refresh_cpu_vm_stats() is only called from the local cpu which allows additional optimizations. The folding function is only called when a cpu is being downed and therefore no other processor will be accessing the counters. Also simplifies synchronization.

Each zone that holds userspace pages of one workload must be aged at a speed proportional to the zone size. Otherwise, the time an individual page gets to stay in memory depends on the zone it happened to be allocated in. Asymmetry in the zone aging creates rather unpredictable aging behavior and results in the wrong pages being reclaimed, activated etc. But exactly this happens right now because of the way the page allocator and kswapd interact. The page allocator uses per-node lists of all zones in the system, ordered by preference, when allocating a new page. When the first iteration does not yield any results, kswapd is woken up and the allocator retries. Due to the way kswapd reclaims zones below the high watermark while a zone can be allocated from when it is above the low watermark, the allocator may keep kswapd running while kswapd reclaim ensures that the page allocator can keep allocating from the first zone in the zonelist for extended periods of time. Meanwhile the other zones rarely see new allocations and thus get aged much slower in comparison. The result is that the occasional page placed in lower zones gets relatively more time in memory, even gets promoted to the active list after its peers have long been evicted. Meanwhile, the bulk of the working set may be thrashing on the preferred zone even though there may be significant amounts of memory available in the lower zones. Even the most basic test -- repeatedly reading a file slightly bigger than memory -- shows how broken the zone aging is. In this scenario, no single page should be able stay in memory long enough to get referenced twice and activated, but activation happens in spades: $ grep active_file /proc/zoneinfo nr_inactive_file 0 nr_active_file 0 nr_inactive_file 0 nr_active_file 8 nr_inactive_file 1582 nr_active_file 11994 $ cat data data data data >/dev/null $ grep active_file /proc/zoneinfo nr_inactive_file 0 nr_active_file 70 nr_inactive_file 258753 nr_active_file 443214 nr_inactive_file 149793 nr_active_file 12021 Fix this with a very simple round robin allocator. Each zone is allowed a batch of allocations that is proportional to the zone's size, after which it is treated as full. The batch counters are reset when all zones have been tried and the allocator enters the slowpath and kicks off kswapd reclaim. Allocation and reclaim is now fairly spread out to all available/allowable zones: $ grep active_file /proc/zoneinfo nr_inactive_file 0 nr_active_file 0 nr_inactive_file 174 nr_active_file 4865 nr_inactive_file 53 nr_active_file 860 $ cat data data data data >/dev/null $ grep active_file /proc/zoneinfo nr_inactive_file 0 nr_active_file 0 nr_inactive_file 666622 nr_active_file 4988 nr_inactive_file 190969 nr_active_file 937 When zone_reclaim_mode is enabled, allocations will now spread out to all zones on the local node, not just the first preferred zone (which on a 4G node might be a tiny Normal zone).

The previous patch doing vmstats for TLB flushes ("mm: vmstats: tlb flush counters") effectively missed UP since arch/x86/mm/tlb.c is only compiled for SMP. UP systems do not do remote TLB flushes, so compile those counters out on UP. arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mtrr/generic.c calls __flush_tlb() directly. This is probably an optimization since both the mtrr code and __flush_tlb() write cr4. It would probably be safe to make that a flush_tlb_all() (and then get these statistics), but the mtrr code is ancient and I'm hesitant to touch it other than to just stick in the counters.

I was investigating some TLB flush scaling issues and realized that we do not have any good methods for figuring out how many TLB flushes we are doing. It would be nice to be able to do these in generic code, but the arch-independent calls don't explicitly specify whether we actually need to do remote flushes or not. In the end, we really need to know if we actually _did_ global vs. local invalidations, so that leaves us with few options other than to muck with the counters from arch-specific code.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. This removes all the uses of the __cpuinit macros from C files in the core kernel directories (kernel, init, lib, mm, and include) that don't really have a specific maintainer.

Add 2 helpers (zone_end_pfn() and zone_spans_pfn()) to reduce code duplication. This also switches to using them in compaction (where an additional variable needed to be renamed), page_alloc, vmstat, memory_hotplug, and kmemleak. Note that in compaction.c I avoid calling zone_end_pfn() repeatedly because I expect at some point the sycronization issues with start_pfn & spanned_pages will need fixing, either by actually using the seqlock or clever memory barrier usage.

Currently a zone's present_pages is calcuated as below, which is inaccurate and may cause trouble to memory hotplug. spanned_pages - absent_pages - memmap_pages - dma_reserve. During fixing bugs caused by inaccurate zone->present_pages, we found zone->present_pages has been abused. The field zone->present_pages may have different meanings in different contexts: 1) pages existing in a zone. 2) pages managed by the buddy system. For more discussions about the issue, please refer to: http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/5/866 https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1346751/ This patchset tries to introduce a new field named "managed_pages" to struct zone, which counts "pages managed by the buddy system". And revert zone->present_pages to count "physical pages existing in a zone", which also keep in consistence with pgdat->node_present_pages. We will set an initial value for zone->managed_pages in function free_area_init_core() and will adjust it later if the initial value is inaccurate. For DMA/normal zones, the initial value is set to: (spanned_pages - absent_pages - memmap_pages - dma_reserve) Later zone->managed_pages will be adjusted to the accurate value when the bootmem allocator frees all free pages to the buddy system in function free_all_bootmem_node() and free_all_bootmem(). The bootmem allocator doesn't touch highmem pages, so highmem zones' managed_pages is set to the accurate value "spanned_pages - absent_pages" in function free_area_init_core() and won't be updated anymore. This patch also adds a new field "managed_pages" to /proc/zoneinfo and sysrq showmem.

It is tricky to quantify the basic cost of automatic NUMA placement in a meaningful manner. This patch adds some vmstats that can be used as part of a basic costing model. u = basic unit = sizeof(void *) Ca = cost of struct page access = sizeof(struct page) / u Cpte = Cost PTE access = Ca Cupdate = Cost PTE update = (2 * Cpte) + (2 * Wlock) where Cpte is incurred twice for a read and a write and Wlock is a constant representing the cost of taking or releasing a lock Cnumahint = Cost of a minor page fault = some high constant e.g. 1000 Cpagerw = Cost to read or write a full page = Ca + PAGE_SIZE/u Ci = Cost of page isolation = Ca + Wi where Wi is a constant that should reflect the approximate cost of the locking operation Cpagecopy = Cpagerw + (Cpagerw * Wnuma) + Ci + (Ci * Wnuma) where Wnuma is the approximate NUMA factor. 1 is local. 1.2 would imply that remote accesses are 20% more expensive Balancing cost = Cpte * numa_pte_updates + Cnumahint * numa_hint_faults + Ci * numa_pages_migrated + Cpagecopy * numa_pages_migrated Note that numa_pages_migrated is used as a measure of how many pages were isolated even though it would miss pages that failed to migrate. A vmstat counter could have been added for it but the isolation cost is pretty marginal in comparison to the overall cost so it seemed overkill. The ideal way to measure automatic placement benefit would be to count the number of remote accesses versus local accesses and do something like benefit = (remote_accesses_before - remove_access_after) * Wnuma but the information is not readily available. As a workload converges, the expection would be that the number of remote numa hints would reduce to 0. convergence = numa_hint_faults_local / numa_hint_faults where this is measured for the last N number of numa hints recorded. When the workload is fully converged the value is 1. This can measure if the placement policy is converging and how fast it is doing it.

Compaction already has tracepoints to count scanned and isolated pages but it requires that ftrace be enabled and if that information has to be written to disk then it can be disruptive. This patch adds vmstat counters for compaction called compact_migrate_scanned, compact_free_scanned and compact_isolated. With these counters, it is possible to define a basic cost model for compaction. This approximates of how much work compaction is doing and can be compared that with an oprofile showing TLB misses and see if the cost of compaction is being offset by THP for example. Minimally a compaction patch can be evaluated in terms of whether it increases or decreases cost. The basic cost model looks like this Fundamental unit u: a word sizeof(void *) Ca = cost of struct page access = sizeof(struct page) / u Cmc = Cost migrate page copy = (Ca + PAGE_SIZE/u) * 2 Cmf = Cost migrate failure = Ca * 2 Ci = Cost page isolation = (Ca + Wi) where Wi is a constant that should reflect the approximate cost of the locking operation. Csm = Cost migrate scanning = Ca Csf = Cost free scanning = Ca Overall cost = (Csm * compact_migrate_scanned) + (Csf * compact_free_scanned) + (Ci * compact_isolated) + (Cmc * pgmigrate_success) + (Cmf * pgmigrate_failed) Where the values are read from /proc/vmstat. This is very basic and ignores certain costs such as the allocation cost to do a migrate page copy but any improvement to the model would still use the same vmstat counters.

The compact_pages_moved and compact_pagemigrate_failed events are convenient for determining if compaction is active and to what degree migration is succeeding but it's at the wrong level. Other users of migration may also want to know if migration is working properly and this will be particularly true for any automated NUMA migration. This patch moves the counters down to migration with the new events called pgmigrate_success and pgmigrate_fail. The compact_blocks_moved counter is removed because while it was useful for debugging initially, it's worthless now as no meaningful conclusions can be drawn from its value.

During memory-hotplug, I found NR_ISOLATED_[ANON|FILE] are increasing, causing the kernel to hang. When the system doesn't have enough free pages, it enters reclaim but never reclaim any pages due to too_many_isolated()==true and loops forever. The cause is that when we do memory-hotadd after memory-remove, __zone_pcp_update() clears a zone's ZONE_STAT_ITEMS in setup_pageset() although the vm_stat_diff of all CPUs still have values. In addtion, when we offline all pages of the zone, we reset them in zone_pcp_reset without draining so we loss some zone stat item.

The MIGRATE_CMA migration type has two main characteristics: (i) only movable pages can be allocated from MIGRATE_CMA pageblocks and (ii) page allocator will never change migration type of MIGRATE_CMA pageblocks. This guarantees (to some degree) that page in a MIGRATE_CMA page block can always be migrated somewhere else (unless there's no memory left in the system). It is designed to be used for allocating big chunks (eg. 10MiB) of physically contiguous memory. Once driver requests contiguous memory, pages from MIGRATE_CMA pageblocks may be migrated away to create a contiguous block. To minimise number of migrations, MIGRATE_CMA migration type is the last type tried when page allocator falls back to other migration types when requested.

The "pgsteal" stat is confusing because it counts both direct reclaim as well as background reclaim. However, we have "kswapd_steal" which also counts background reclaim value. This patch fixes it and also makes it match the existng "pgscan_" stats.

When direct reclaim encounters a dirty page, it gets recycled around the LRU for another cycle. This patch marks the page PageReclaim similar to deactivate_page() so that the page gets reclaimed almost immediately after the page gets cleaned. This is to avoid reclaiming clean pages that are younger than a dirty page encountered at the end of the LRU that might have been something like a use-once page.

Testing from the XFS folk revealed that there is still too much I/O from the end of the LRU in kswapd. Previously it was considered acceptable by VM people for a small number of pages to be written back from reclaim with testing generally showing about 0.3% of pages reclaimed were written back (higher if memory was low). That writing back a small number of pages is ok has been heavily disputed for quite some time and Dave Chinner explained it well; It doesn't have to be a very high number to be a problem. IO is orders of magnitude slower than the CPU time it takes to flush a page, so the cost of making a bad flush decision is very high. And single page writeback from the LRU is almost always a bad flush decision. To complicate matters, filesystems respond very differently to requests from reclaim according to Christoph Hellwig; xfs tries to write it back if the requester is kswapd ext4 ignores the request if it's a delayed allocation btrfs ignores the request As a result, each filesystem has different performance characteristics when under memory pressure and there are many pages being dirtied. In some cases, the request is ignored entirely so the VM cannot depend on the IO being dispatched. The objective of this series is to reduce writing of filesystem-backed pages from reclaim, play nicely with writeback that is already in progress and throttle reclaim appropriately when writeback pages are encountered. The assumption is that the flushers will always write pages faster than if reclaim issues the IO. A secondary goal is to avoid the problem whereby direct reclaim splices two potentially deep call stacks together. There is a potential new problem as reclaim has less control over how long before a page in a particularly zone or container is cleaned and direct reclaimers depend on kswapd or flusher threads to do the necessary work. However, as filesystems sometimes ignore direct reclaim requests already, it is not expected to be a serious issue. Patch 1 disables writeback of filesystem pages from direct reclaim entirely. Anonymous pages are still written. Patch 2 removes dead code in lumpy reclaim as it is no longer able to synchronously write pages. This hurts lumpy reclaim but there is an expectation that compaction is used for hugepage allocations these days and lumpy reclaim's days are numbered. Patches 3-4 add warnings to XFS and ext4 if called from direct reclaim. With patch 1, this "never happens" and is intended to catch regressions in this logic in the future. Patch 5 disables writeback of filesystem pages from kswapd unless the priority is raised to the point where kswapd is considered to be in trouble. Patch 6 throttles reclaimers if too many dirty pages are being encountered and the zones or backing devices are congested. Patch 7 invalidates dirty pages found at the end of the LRU so they are reclaimed quickly after being written back rather than waiting for a reclaimer to find them I consider this series to be orthogonal to the writeback work but it is worth noting that the writeback work affects the viability of patch 8 in particular. I tested this on ext4 and xfs using fs_mark, a simple writeback test based on dd and a micro benchmark that does a streaming write to a large mapping (exercises use-once LRU logic) followed by streaming writes to a mix of anonymous and file-backed mappings. The command line for fs_mark when botted with 512M looked something like ./fs_mark -d /tmp/fsmark-2676 -D 100 -N 150 -n 150 -L 25 -t 1 -S0 -s 10485760 The number of files was adjusted depending on the amount of available memory so that the files created was about 3xRAM. For multiple threads, the -d switch is specified multiple times. The test machine is x86-64 with an older generation of AMD processor with 4 cores. The underlying storage was 4 disks configured as RAID-0 as this was the best configuration of storage I had available. Swap is on a separate disk. Dirty ratio was tuned to 40% instead of the default of 20%. Testing was run with and without monitors to both verify that the patches were operating as expected and that any performance gain was real and not due to interference from monitors.

For the most part, tests are completing faster with the exception of the streaming writes to a mixture of anonymous and file-backed mappings which were slower in two cases In the cases where the mmap-strm tests were slower, there was more swapping due to dirty pages being skipped. The number of additional pages swapped is almost identical to the fewer number of pages written from reclaim. In other words, roughly the same number of pages were reclaimed but swapping was slower. As the test is a bit unrealistic and stresses memory heavily, the small shift is acceptable. 4608M1P-xfs Files/s mean 29.75 ( 0.00%) 30.96 ( 3.91%) 4608M1P-xfs Elapsed Time fsmark 512.01 492.15 4608M1P-xfs Elapsed Time simple-wb 618.18 566.24 4608M1P-xfs Elapsed Time mmap-strm 488.05 465.07 4608M1P-xfs Kswapd efficiency fsmark 93% 86% 4608M1P-xfs Kswapd efficiency simple-wb 88% 84% 4608M1P-xfs Kswapd efficiency mmap-strm 46% 45% 4608M-xfs Files/s mean 27.60 ( 0.00%) 28.85 ( 4.33%) 4608M-xfs Elapsed Time fsmark 555.96 532.34 4608M-xfs Elapsed Time simple-wb 659.72 571.85 4608M-xfs Elapsed Time mmap-strm 1082.57 1146.38 4608M-xfs Kswapd efficiency fsmark 89% 91% 4608M-xfs Kswapd efficiency simple-wb 88% 82% 4608M-xfs Kswapd efficiency mmap-strm 48% 46% 4608M-4X-xfs Files/s mean 26.00 ( 0.00%) 27.47 ( 5.35%) 4608M-4X-xfs Elapsed Time fsmark 592.91 564.00 4608M-4X-xfs Elapsed Time simple-wb 616.65 575.07 4608M-4X-xfs Elapsed Time mmap-strm 1773.02 1631.53 4608M-4X-xfs Kswapd efficiency fsmark 90% 94% 4608M-4X-xfs Kswapd efficiency simple-wb 87% 82% 4608M-4X-xfs Kswapd efficiency mmap-strm 43% 43% 4608M-16X-xfs Files/s mean 26.07 ( 0.00%) 26.42 ( 1.32%) 4608M-16X-xfs Elapsed Time fsmark 602.69 585.78 4608M-16X-xfs Elapsed Time simple-wb 606.60 573.81 4608M-16X-xfs Elapsed Time mmap-strm 1549.75 1441.86 4608M-16X-xfs Kswapd efficiency fsmark 98% 98% 4608M-16X-xfs Kswapd efficiency simple-wb 88% 82% 4608M-16X-xfs Kswapd efficiency mmap-strm 44% 42% Unlike the other tests, the fsmark results are not statistically significant but the min and max times are both improved and for the most part, tests completed faster. There are other indications that this is an improvement as well. For example, in the vast majority of cases, there were fewer pages scanned by direct reclaim implying in many cases that stalls due to direct reclaim are reduced. KSwapd is scanning more due to skipping dirty pages which is unfortunate but the CPU usage is still acceptable In an earlier set of tests, I used blktrace and in almost all cases throughput throughout the entire test was higher. However, I ended up discarding those results as recording blktrace data was too heavy for my liking. On a laptop, I plugged in a USB stick and ran a similar tests of tests using it as backing storage. A desktop environment was running and for the entire duration of the tests, firefox and gnome terminal were launching and exiting to vaguely simulate a user. 1024M-xfs Files/s mean 0.41 ( 0.00%) 0.44 ( 6.82%) 1024M-xfs Elapsed Time fsmark 2053.52 1641.03 1024M-xfs Elapsed Time simple-wb 1229.53 768.05 1024M-xfs Elapsed Time mmap-strm 4126.44 4597.03 1024M-xfs Kswapd efficiency fsmark 84% 85% 1024M-xfs Kswapd efficiency simple-wb 92% 81% 1024M-xfs Kswapd efficiency mmap-strm 60% 51% 1024M-xfs Avg wait ms fsmark 5404.53 4473.87 1024M-xfs Avg wait ms simple-wb 2541.35 1453.54 1024M-xfs Avg wait ms mmap-strm 3400.25 3852.53 The mmap-strm results were hurt because firefox launching had a tendency to push the test out of memory. On the postive side, firefox launched marginally faster with the patches applied. Time to completion for many tests was faster but more importantly - the "Avg wait" time as measured by iostat was far lower implying the system would be more responsive. It was also the case that "Avg wait ms" on the root filesystem was lower. I tested it manually and while the system felt slightly more responsive while copying data to a USB stick, it was marginal enough that it could be my imagination. This patch: do not writeback filesystem pages in direct reclaim. When kswapd is failing to keep zones above the min watermark, a process will enter direct reclaim in the same manner kswapd does. If a dirty page is encountered during the scan, this page is written to backing storage using mapping->writepage. This causes two problems. First, it can result in very deep call stacks, particularly if the target storage or filesystem are complex. Some filesystems ignore write requests from direct reclaim as a result. The second is that a single-page flush is inefficient in terms of IO. While there is an expectation that the elevator will merge requests, this does not always happen. Quoting Christoph Hellwig; The elevator has a relatively small window it can operate on, and can never fix up a bad large scale writeback pattern. This patch prevents direct reclaim writing back filesystem pages by checking if current is kswapd. Anonymous pages are still written to swap as there is not the equivalent of a flusher thread for anonymous pages. If the dirty pages cannot be written back, they are placed back on the LRU lists. There is now a direct dependency on dirty page balancing to prevent too many pages in the system being dirtied which would prevent reclaim making forward progress.

Add a new __GFP_OTHER_NODE flag to tell the low level numa statistics in zone_statistics() that an allocation is on behalf of another thread. This way the local and remote counters can be still correct, even when background daemons like khugepaged are changing memory mappings. This only affects the accounting, but I think it's worth doing that right to avoid confusing users. I first tried to just pass down the right node, but this required a lot of changes to pass down this parameter and at least one addition of a 10th argument to a 9 argument function. Using the flag is a lot less intrusive. Open: should be also used for migration?
