Make sure that mlocked pages also live on the unevictable LRU, so kswapd will not scan them over and over again. This is achieved through various strategies: 1) add yet another page flag--PG_mlocked--to indicate that the page is locked for efficient testing in vmscan and, optionally, fault path. This allows early culling of unevictable pages, preventing them from getting to page_referenced()/try_to_unmap(). Also allows separate accounting of mlock'd pages, as Nick's original patch did. Note: Nick's original mlock patch used a PG_mlocked flag. I had removed this in favor of the PG_unevictable flag + an mlock_count [new page struct member]. I restored the PG_mlocked flag to eliminate the new count field. 2) add the mlock/unevictable infrastructure to mm/mlock.c, with internal APIs in mm/internal.h. This is a rework of Nick's original patch to these files, taking into account that mlocked pages are now kept on unevictable LRU list. 3) update vmscan.c:page_evictable() to check PageMlocked() and, if vma passed in, the vm_flags. Note that the vma will only be passed in for new pages in the fault path; and then only if the "cull unevictable pages in fault path" patch is included. 4) add try_to_unlock() to rmap.c to walk a page's rmap and ClearPageMlocked() if no other vmas have it mlocked. Reuses as much of try_to_unmap() as possible. This effectively replaces the use of one of the lru list links as an mlock count. If this mechanism let's pages in mlocked vmas leak through w/o PG_mlocked set [I don't know that it does], we should catch them later in try_to_unmap(). One hopes this will be rare, as it will be relatively expensive.

We avoid evicting and scanning anonymous pages for the most part, but under some workloads we can end up with most of memory filled with anonymous pages. At that point, we suddenly need to clear the referenced bits on all of memory, which can take ages on very large memory systems. We can reduce the maximum number of pages that need to be scanned by not taking the referenced state into account when deactivating an anonymous page. After all, every anonymous page starts out referenced, so why check? If an anonymous page gets referenced again before it reaches the end of the inactive list, we move it back to the active list. To keep the maximum amount of necessary work reasonable, we scale the active to inactive ratio with the size of memory, using the formula active:inactive ratio = sqrt(memory in GB * 10). Kswapd CPU use now seems to scale by the amount of pageout bandwidth, instead of by the amount of memory present in the system.

Split the LRU lists in two, one set for pages that are backed by real file systems ("file") and one for pages that are backed by memory and swap ("anon"). The latter includes tmpfs. The advantage of doing this is that the VM will not have to scan over lots of anonymous pages (which we generally do not want to swap out), just to find the page cache pages that it should evict. This patch has the infrastructure and a basic policy to balance how much we scan the anon lists and how much we scan the file lists. The big policy changes are in separate patches.

Define page_file_cache() function to answer the question: is page backed by a file? Originally part of Rik van Riel's split-lru patch. Extracted to make available for other, independent reclaim patches. Moved inline function to linux/mm_inline.h where it will be needed by subsequent "split LRU" and "noreclaim" patches. Unfortunately this needs to use a page flag, since the PG_swapbacked state needs to be preserved all the way to the point where the page is last removed from the LRU. Trying to derive the status from other info in the page resulted in wrong VM statistics in earlier split VM patchsets. The total number of page flags in use on a 32 bit machine after this patch is 19.

When we initialise a compound page we initialise the page flags and head page pointer for all base pages spanned by that page. When we initialise a gigantic page (a page of order greater than or equal to MAX_ORDER) we have to initialise more than MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES pages. Currently we assume that all elements of the mem_map in this page are contigious in memory. However this is only guarenteed out to MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES pages, and with SPARSEMEM enabled they will not be contigious. This leads us to walk off the end of the first section and scribble on everything which follows, BAD. When we reach a MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES boundary we much locate the next section of the mem_map. As gigantic pages can only be maximally aligned we know this will occur at exact multiple of MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES pages from the start of the page. This is a bug fix for the gigantic page support in hugetlbfs. Credit to Mel Gorman for spotting the issue.

I have gotten to the root cause of the hugetlb badness I reported back on August 15th. My system has the following memory topology (note the overlapping node): Node 0 Memory: 0x8000000-0x44000000 Node 1 Memory: 0x0-0x8000000 0x44000000-0x80000000 setup_zone_migrate_reserve() scans the address range 0x0-0x8000000 looking for a pageblock to move onto the MIGRATE_RESERVE list. Finding no candidates, it happily continues the scan into 0x8000000-0x44000000. When a pageblock is found, the pages are moved to the MIGRATE_RESERVE list on the wrong zone. Oops. setup_zone_migrate_reserve() should skip pageblocks in overlapping nodes.

alloc_pages_exact() is similar to alloc_pages(), except that it allocates the minimum number of pages to fulfill the request. This is useful if you want to allocate a very large buffer that is slightly larger than an even power-of-two number of pages. In that case, alloc_pages() will waste a lot of memory. I have a video driver that wants to allocate a 5MB buffer. alloc_pages() wiill waste 3MB of physically-contiguous memory.

Boot initialisation is very complex, with significant numbers of architecture-specific routines, hooks and code ordering. While significant amounts of the initialisation is architecture-independent, it trusts the data received from the architecture layer. This is a mistake, and has resulted in a number of difficult-to-diagnose bugs. This patchset adds some validation and tracing to memory initialisation. It also introduces a few basic defensive measures. The validation code can be explicitly disabled for embedded systems. This patch: Add additional debugging and verification code for memory initialisation. Once enabled, the verification checks are always run and when required additional debugging information may be outputted via a mminit_loglevel= command-line parameter. The verification code is placed in a new file mm/mm_init.c. Ideally other mm initialisation code will be moved here over time.

The non-NUMA case of build_zonelist_cache() would initialize the zlcache_ptr for both node_zonelists[] to NULL. Which is problematic, since non-NUMA only has a single node_zonelists[] entry, and trying to zero the non-existent second one just overwrote the nr_zones field instead. As kswapd uses this value to determine what reclaim work is necessary, the result is that kswapd never reclaims. This causes processes to stall frequently in low-memory situations as they always direct reclaim. This patch initialises zlcache_ptr correctly.

Now we are using register_e820_active_regions() instead of add_active_range() directly. So end_pfn could be different between the value in early_node_map to node_end_pfn. So we need to make shrink_active_range() smarter. shrink_active_range() is a generic MM function in mm/page_alloc.c but it is only used on 32-bit x86. Should we move it back to some file in arch/x86?

Minor source code cleanup of page flags in mm/page_alloc.c. Move the definition of the groups of bits to page-flags.h. The purpose of this clean up is that the next patch will conditionally add a page flag to the groups. Doing that in a header file is cleaner than adding #ifdefs to the C code.

Trying to add memory via add_memory() from within an initcall function results in bootmem alloc of 163840 bytes failed! Kernel panic - not syncing: Out of memory This is caused by zone_wait_table_init() which uses system_state to decide if it should use the bootmem allocator or not. When initcalls are handled the system_state is still SYSTEM_BOOTING but the bootmem allocator doesn't work anymore. So the allocation will fail. To fix this use slab_is_available() instead as indicator like we do it everywhere else.

In this system there is only ZONE_DMA and ZONE_NORMAL memory on node 0, all other nodes are mapped above 4GB physical. Here is a dump of the zonelists from this system: zonelists pgdat=c1400000 0: c14006c0:2 f7c006c0:2 f7e006c0:2 c1400360:1 c1400000:0 1: c14006c0:2 c1400360:1 c1400000:0 zonelists pgdat=f7c00000 0: f7c006c0:2 f7e006c0:2 c14006c0:2 c1400360:1 c1400000:0 1: f7c006c0:2 zonelists pgdat=f7e00000 0: f7e006c0:2 c14006c0:2 f7c006c0:2 c1400360:1 c1400000:0 1: f7e006c0:2 When performing a node local allocation we call get_page_from_freelist() looking for a page. It in turn calls first_zones_zonelist() which returns a preferred_zone. Where there are no applicable zones this will be NULL. However we use this unconditionally, leading to this panic. Where there are no applicable zones there is no possibility of a successful allocation, so simply fail the allocation.

Trying to online a new memory section that was added via memory hotplug sometimes results in crashes when the new pages are added via __free_page. Reason for that is that the pageblock bitmap isn't initialized and hence contains random stuff. That means that get_pageblock_migratetype() returns also random stuff and therefore list_add(&page->lru, &zone->free_area[order].free_list[migratetype]); in __free_one_page() tries to do a list_add to something that isn't even necessarily a list. This happens since 86051ca5 ("mm: fix usemap initialization") which makes sure that the pageblock bitmap gets only initialized for pages present in a zone. Unfortunately for hot-added memory the zones "grow" after the memmap and the pageblock memmap have been initialized. Which means that the new pages have an unitialized bitmap. To solve this the calls to grow_zone_span() and grow_pgdat_span() are moved to __add_zone() just before the initialization happens. The patch also moves the two functions since __add_zone() is the only caller and I didn't want to add a forward declaration.
