      mm: remove unevictable_migrate_page function · 418b27ef
      Lee Schermerhorn 提交于
      unevictable_migrate_page() in mm/internal.h is a relic of the since
      removed UNEVICTABLE_LRU Kconfig option.  This patch removes the function
      and open codes the test in migrate_page_copy().

      hugetlb: acquire the i_mmap_lock before walking the prio_tree to unmap a page · 4eb2b1dc
      Mel Gorman 提交于
      When the owner of a mapping fails COW because a child process is holding a
      reference, the children VMAs are walked and the page is unmapped.  The
      i_mmap_lock is taken for the unmapping of the page but not the walking of
      the prio_tree.  In theory, that tree could be changing if the lock is not
      held.  This patch takes the i_mmap_lock properly for the duration of the
      prio_tree walk.

      'sysctl_max_map_count' should be non-negative · 70da2340
      Amerigo Wang 提交于
      Jan Engelhardt reported we have this problem:
      
      setting max_map_count to a value large enough results in programs dying at
      first try.  This is on 2.6.31.6:
      
      15:59 borg:/proc/sys/vm # echo $[1<<31-1] >max_map_count
      15:59 borg:/proc/sys/vm # cat max_map_count
      1073741824
      15:59 borg:/proc/sys/vm # echo $[1<<31] >max_map_count
      15:59 borg:/proc/sys/vm # cat max_map_count
      Killed
      
      This is because we have a chance to make 'max_map_count' negative.  but
      it's meaningless.  Make it only accept non-negative values.

      vmscan: do not evict inactive pages when skipping an active list scan · b39415b2
      Rik van Riel 提交于
      In AIM7 runs, recent kernels start swapping out anonymous pages well
      before they should.  This is due to shrink_list falling through to
      shrink_inactive_list if !inactive_anon_is_low(zone, sc), when all we
      really wanted to do is pre-age some anonymous pages to give them extra
      time to be referenced while on the inactive list.
      
      The obvious fix is to make sure that shrink_list does not fall through to
      scanning/reclaiming inactive pages when we called it to scan one of the
      active lists.
      
      This change should be safe because the loop in shrink_zone ensures that we
      will still shrink the anon and file inactive lists whenever we should.

      This can be fixed by dropping the mm->page_table_lock around the call to
      unmap_ref_private() if alloc_huge_page() fails, its dropped right below in
      the normal path anyway.  However, earlier in the that function, it's also
      possible to call into the page allocator with the same spinlock held.
      
      What this patch does is drop the spinlock before the page allocator is
      potentially entered.  The check for page allocation failure can be made
      without the page_table_lock as well as the copy of the huge page.  Even if
      the PTE changed while the spinlock was held, the consequence is that a
      huge page is copied unnecessarily.  This resolves both the double taking
      of the lock and sleeping with the spinlock held.

      ksm: memory hotremove migration only · 62b61f61
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      The previous patch enables page migration of ksm pages, but that soon gets
      into trouble: not surprising, since we're using the ksm page lock to lock
      operations on its stable_node, but page migration switches the page whose
      lock is to be used for that.  Another layer of locking would fix it, but
      do we need that yet?
      
      Do we actually need page migration of ksm pages?  Yes, memory hotremove
      needs to offline sections of memory: and since we stopped allocating ksm
      pages with GFP_HIGHUSER, they will tend to be GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE
      candidates for migration.
      
      But KSM is currently unconscious of NUMA issues, happily merging pages
      from different NUMA nodes: at present the rule must be, not to use
      MADV_MERGEABLE where you care about NUMA.  So no, NUMA page migration of
      ksm pages does not make sense yet.
      
      So, to complete support for ksm swapping we need to make hotremove safe.
      ksm_memory_callback() take ksm_thread_mutex when MEM_GOING_OFFLINE and
      release it when MEM_OFFLINE or MEM_CANCEL_OFFLINE.  But if mapped pages
      are freed before migration reaches them, stable_nodes may be left still
      pointing to struct pages which have been removed from the system: the
      stable_node needs to identify a page by pfn rather than page pointer, then
      it can safely prune them when MEM_OFFLINE.
      
      And make NUMA migration skip PageKsm pages where it skips PageReserved.
      But it's only when we reach unmap_and_move() that the page lock is taken
      and we can be sure that raised pagecount has prevented a PageAnon from
      being upgraded: so add offlining arg to migrate_pages(), to migrate ksm
      page when offlining (has sufficient locking) but reject it otherwise.

      ksm: rmap_walk to remove_migation_ptes · e9995ef9
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      A side-effect of making ksm pages swappable is that they have to be placed
      on the LRUs: which then exposes them to isolate_lru_page() and hence to
      page migration.
      
      Add rmap_walk() for remove_migration_ptes() to use: rmap_walk_anon() and
      rmap_walk_file() in rmap.c, but rmap_walk_ksm() in ksm.c.  Perhaps some
      consolidation with existing code is possible, but don't attempt that yet
      (try_to_unmap needs to handle nonlinears, but migration pte removal does
      not).
      
      rmap_walk() is sadly less general than it appears: rmap_walk_anon(), like
      remove_anon_migration_ptes() which it replaces, avoids calling
      page_lock_anon_vma(), because that includes a page_mapped() test which
      fails when all migration ptes are in place.  That was valid when NUMA page
      migration was introduced (holding mmap_sem provided the missing guarantee
      that anon_vma's slab had not already been destroyed), but I believe not
      valid in the memory hotremove case added since.
      
      For now do the same as before, and consider the best way to fix that
      unlikely race later on.  When fixed, we can probably use rmap_walk() on
      hwpoisoned ksm pages too: for now, they remain among hwpoison's various
      exceptions (its PageKsm test comes before the page is locked, but its
      page_lock_anon_vma fails safely if an anon gets upgraded).

      ksm: mem cgroup charge swapin copy · 407f9c8b
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      But ksm swapping does require one small change in mem cgroup handling.
      When do_swap_page()'s call to ksm_might_need_to_copy() does indeed
      substitute a duplicate page to accommodate a different anon_vma (or a the
      !PageSwapCache check in mem_cgroup_try_charge_swapin().
      
      That was returning success without charging, on the assumption that
      pte_same() would fail after, which is not the case here.  Originally I
      proposed that success, so that an unshrinkable mem cgroup at its limit
      would not fail unnecessarily; but that's a minor point, and there are
      plenty of other places where we may fail an overallocation which might
      later prove unnecessary.  So just go ahead and do what all the other
      exceptions do: proceed to charge current mm.

      ksm: share anon page without allocating · 80e14822
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      When ksm pages were unswappable, it made no sense to include them in mem
      cgroup accounting; but now that they are swappable (although I see no
      strict logical connection) the principle of least surprise implies that
      they should be accounted (with the usual dissatisfaction, that a shared
      page is accounted to only one of the cgroups using it).
      
      This patch was intended to add mem cgroup accounting where necessary; but
      turned inside out, it now avoids allocating a ksm page, instead upgrading
      an anon page to ksm - which brings its existing mem cgroup accounting with
      it.  Thus mem cgroups don't appear in the patch at all.
      
      This upgrade from PageAnon to PageKsm takes place under page lock (via a
      somewhat hacky NULL kpage interface), and audit showed only one place
      which needed to cope with the race - page_referenced() is sometimes used
      without page lock, so page_lock_anon_vma() needs an ACCESS_ONCE() to be
      sure of getting anon_vma and flags together (no problem if the page goes
      ksm an instant after, the integrity of that anon_vma list is unaffected).

      ksm: take keyhole reference to page · 4035c07a
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      There's a lamentable flaw in KSM swapping: the stable_node holds a
      reference to the ksm page, so the page to be freed cannot actually be
      freed until ksmd works its way around to removing the last rmap_item from
      its stable_node.  Which in some configurations may take minutes: not quite
      responsive enough for memory reclaim.  And we don't want to twist KSM and
      its locking more tightly into the rest of mm.  What a pity.
      
      But although the stable_node needs to hold a pointer to the ksm page, does
      it actually need to raise the reference count of that page?
      
      No.  It would need to do so if struct pages were ordinary kmalloc'ed
      objects; but they are more stable than that, and reused in particular ways
      according to particular rules.
      
      Access to stable_node from its pointer in struct page is no problem, so
      long as we never free a stable_node before the ksm page itself has been
      freed.  Access to struct page from its pointer in stable_node: reintroduce
      get_ksm_page(), and let that peep out through its keyhole (the stable_node
      pointer to ksm page), to see if that struct page still holds the right key
      to open it (the ksm page mapping pointer back to this stable_node).
      
      This relies upon the established way in which free_hot_cold_page() sets an
      anon (including ksm) page->mapping to NULL; and relies upon no other user
      of a struct page to put something which looks like the original
      stable_node pointer (with two low bits also set) into page->mapping.  It
      also needs get_page_unless_zero() technique pioneered by speculative
      pagecache; and uses rcu_read_lock() to keep the guarantees that gives.
      
      There are several drivers which put pointers of their own into page->
      mapping; but none of those could coincide with our stable_node pointers,
      since KSM won't free a stable_node until it sees that the page has gone.
      
      The only problem case found is the pagetable spinlock USE_SPLIT_PTLOCKS
      places in struct page (my own abuse): to accommodate GENERIC_LOCKBREAK's
      break_lock on 32-bit, that spans both page->private and page->mapping.
      Since break_lock is only 0 or 1, again no confusion for get_ksm_page().
      
      But what of DEBUG_SPINLOCK on 64-bit bigendian?  When owner_cpu is 3
      (matching PageKsm low bits), it might see 0xdead4ead00000003 in page->
      mapping, which might coincide?  We could get around that by...  but a
      better answer is to suppress USE_SPLIT_PTLOCKS when DEBUG_SPINLOCK or
      DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC, to stop bloating sizeof(struct page) in their case -
      already proposed in an earlier mm/Kconfig patch.

      ksm: hold anon_vma in rmap_item · db114b83
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      For full functionality, page_referenced_one() and try_to_unmap_one() need
      to know the vma: to pass vma down to arch-dependent flushes, or to observe
      VM_LOCKED or VM_EXEC.  But KSM keeps no record of vma: nor can it, since
      vmas get split and merged without its knowledge.
      
      Instead, note page's anon_vma in its rmap_item when adding to stable tree:
      all the vmas which might map that page are listed by its anon_vma.
      
      page_referenced_ksm() and try_to_unmap_ksm() then traverse the anon_vma,
      first to find the probable vma, that which matches rmap_item's mm; but if
      that is not enough to locate all instances, traverse again to try the
      others.  This catches those occasions when fork has duplicated a pte of a
      ksm page, but ksmd has not yet come around to assign it an rmap_item.
      
      But each rmap_item in the stable tree which refers to an anon_vma needs to
      take a reference to it.  Andrea's anon_vma design cleverly avoided a
      reference count (an anon_vma was free when its list of vmas was empty),
      but KSM now needs to add that.  Is a 32-bit count sufficient?  I believe
      so - the anon_vma is only free when both count is 0 and list is empty.

      ksm: let shared pages be swappable · 5ad64688
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      Initial implementation for swapping out KSM's shared pages: add
      page_referenced_ksm() and try_to_unmap_ksm(), which rmap.c calls when
      faced with a PageKsm page.
      
      Most of what's needed can be got from the rmap_items listed from the
      stable_node of the ksm page, without discovering the actual vma: so in
      this patch just fake up a struct vma for page_referenced_one() or
      try_to_unmap_one(), then refine that in the next patch.
      
      Add VM_NONLINEAR to ksm_madvise()'s list of exclusions: it has always been
      implicit there (being only set with VM_SHARED, already excluded), but
      let's make it explicit, to help justify the lack of nonlinear unmap.
      
      Rely on the page lock to protect against concurrent modifications to that
      page's node of the stable tree.
      
      The awkward part is not swapout but swapin: do_swap_page() and
      page_add_anon_rmap() now have to allow for new possibilities - perhaps a
      ksm page still in swapcache, perhaps a swapcache page associated with one
      location in one anon_vma now needed for another location or anon_vma.
      (And the vma might even be no longer VM_MERGEABLE when that happens.)
      
      ksm_might_need_to_copy() checks for that case, and supplies a duplicate
      page when necessary, simply leaving it to a subsequent pass of ksmd to
      rediscover the identity and merge them back into one ksm page.
      Disappointingly primitive: but the alternative would have to accumulate
      unswappable info about the swapped out ksm pages, limiting swappability.
      
      Remove page_add_ksm_rmap(): page_add_anon_rmap() now has to allow for the
      particular case it was handling, so just use it instead.

      ksm: separate stable_node · 7b6ba2c7
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      Though we still do well to keep rmap_items in the unstable tree without a
      separate tree_item at the node, for several reasons it becomes awkward to
      keep rmap_items in the stable tree without a separate stable_node: lack of
      space in the nicely-sized rmap_item, the need for an anchor as rmap_items
      are removed, the need for a node even when temporarily no rmap_items are
      attached to it.
      
      So declare struct stable_node (rb_node to place it in the tree and
      hlist_head for the rmap_items hanging off it), and convert stable tree
      handling to use it: without yet taking advantage of it.  Note how one
      stable_tree_insert() of a node now has _two_ stable_tree_append()s of the
      two rmap_items being merged.

      At that time, their patch was pretty worth.  However, Modern Hardware
      trend and recent VM improvement broke its worth.  From several reason, I
      think we should remove shrink_all_zones() at all.
      
      detail:
      
      1) Old days, shrink_zone()'s slowness was mainly caused by stupid io-throttle
        at no i/o congestion.
        but current shrink_zone() is sane, not slow.
      
      2) shrink_all_zone() try to shrink all pages at a time. but it doesn't works
        fine on numa system.
        example)
          System has 4GB memory and each node have 2GB. and hibernate need 1GB.
      
          optimal)
             steal 500MB from each node.
          shrink_all_zones)
             steal 1GB from node-0.
      
        Oh, Cache balancing logic was broken. ;)
        Unfortunately, Desktop system moved ahead NUMA at nowadays.
        (Side note, if hibernate require 2GB, shrink_all_zones() never success
         on above machine)
      
      3) if the node has several I/O flighting pages, shrink_all_zones() makes
        pretty bad result.
      
        schenario) hibernate need 1GB
      
        1) shrink_all_zones() try to reclaim 1GB from Node-0
        2) but it only reclaimed 990MB
        3) stupidly, shrink_all_zones() try to reclaim 1GB from Node-1
        4) it reclaimed 990MB
      
        Oh, well. it reclaimed twice much than required.
        In the other hand, current shrink_zone() has sane baling out logic.
        then, it doesn't make overkill reclaim. then, we lost shrink_zones()'s risk.
      
      4) SplitLRU VM always keep active/inactive ratio very carefully. inactive list only
        shrinking break its assumption. it makes unnecessary OOM risk. it obviously suboptimal.
      
      Now, shrink_all_memory() is only the wrapper function of do_try_to_free_pages().
      it bring good reviewability and debuggability, and solve above problems.
      
      side note: Reclaim logic unificication makes two good side effect.
       - Fix recursive reclaim bug on shrink_all_memory().
         it did forgot to use PF_MEMALLOC. it mean the system be able to stuck into deadlock.
       - Now, shrink_all_memory() got lockdep awareness. it bring good debuggability.

      vmscan: separate sc.swap_cluster_max and sc.nr_max_reclaim · 22fba335
      KOSAKI Motohiro 提交于
      Currently, sc.scap_cluster_max has double meanings.
      
       1) reclaim batch size as isolate_lru_pages()'s argument
       2) reclaim baling out thresolds
      
      The two meanings pretty unrelated. Thus, Let's separate it.
      this patch doesn't change any behavior.

      mm: add numa node symlink for cpu devices in sysfs · 1830794a
      Alex Chiang 提交于
      You can discover which CPUs belong to a NUMA node by examining
      /sys/devices/system/node/node#/
      
      However, it's not convenient to go in the other direction, when looking at
      /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/
      
      Yes, you can muck about in sysfs, but adding these symlinks makes life a
      lot more convenient.

      mm: add numa node symlink for memory section in sysfs · dee5d0d5
      Alex Chiang 提交于
      Commit c04fc586 (mm: show node to memory section relationship with
      symlinks in sysfs) created symlinks from nodes to memory sections, e.g.
      
      /sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory135 -> ../../memory/memory135
      
      If you're examining the memory section though and are wondering what node
      it might belong to, you can find it by grovelling around in sysfs, but
      it's a little cumbersome.
      
      Add a reverse symlink for each memory section that points back to the
      node to which it belongs.

      mm: sigbus instead of abusing oom · d99be1a8
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      When do_nonlinear_fault() realizes that the page table must have been
      corrupted for it to have been called, it does print_bad_pte() and returns
      ...  VM_FAULT_OOM, which is hard to understand.
      
      It made some sense when I did it for 2.6.15, when do_page_fault() just
      killed the current process; but nowadays it lets the OOM killer decide who
      to kill - so page table corruption in one process would be liable to kill
      another.
      
      Change it to return VM_FAULT_SIGBUS instead: that doesn't guarantee that
      the process will be killed, but is good enough for such a rare
      abnormality, accompanied as it is by the "BUG: Bad page map" message.
      
      And recent HWPOISON work has copied that code into do_swap_page(), when it
      finds an impossible swap entry: fix that to VM_FAULT_SIGBUS too.

      mm: stop ptlock enlarging struct page · a70caa8b
      Hugh Dickins 提交于
      CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK adds 12 or 16 bytes to a 32- or 64-bit spinlock_t,
      and CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC adds another 12 or 24 bytes to it: lockdep
      enables both of those, and CONFIG_LOCK_STAT adds 8 or 16 bytes to that.
      
      When 2.6.15 placed the split page table lock inside struct page (usually
      sized 32 or 56 bytes), only CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK was a possibility, and
      we ignored the enlargement (but fitted in CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK's 4 by
      letting the spinlock_t occupy both page->private and page->mapping).
      
      Should these debugging options be allowed to double the size of a struct
      page, when only one minority use of the page (as a page table) needs to
      fit a spinlock in there?  Perhaps not.
      
      Take the easy way out: switch off SPLIT_PTLOCK_CPUS when DEBUG_SPINLOCK or
      DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC is in force.  I've sometimes tried to be cleverer,
      kmallocing a cacheline for the spinlock when it doesn't fit, but given up
      each time.  Falling back to mm->page_table_lock (as we do when ptlock is
      not split) lets lockdep check out the strictest path anyway.
      
      And now that some arches allow 8192 cpus, use 999999 for infinity.
      
      (What has this got to do with KSM swapping?  It doesn't care about the
      size of struct page, but may care about random junk in page->mapping - to
      be explained separately later.)
