      frv: remove unused cpuinfo_frv and friends to fix future build error · 21f45660
      Geert Uytterhoeven authored
      Frv has a macro named cpu_data, interfering with variables and struct
      members with the same name:
      
      include/linux/pm_domain.h:75:24: error: expected identifier or '('
      before '&' token
        struct gpd_cpu_data *cpu_data;
      
      As struct cpuinfo_frv, boot_cpu_data, cpu_data, and current_cpu_data are
      not used, removed them to fix this.

      zbud: avoid accessing last unused freelist · f203c3b3
      Chao Yu authored
      For now, there are NCHUNKS of 64 freelists in zbud_pool, the last
      unbuddied[63] freelist linked with all zbud pages which have free chunks
      of 63.  Calculating according to context of num_free_chunks(), our max
      chunk number of unbuddied zbud page is 62, so none of zbud pages will be
      added/removed in last freelist, but still we will try to find an unbuddied
      zbud page in the last unused freelist, it is unneeded.
      
      This patch redefines NCHUNKS to 63 as free chunk number in one zbud page,
      hence we can decrease size of zpool and avoid accessing the last unused
      freelist whenever failing to allocate zbud from freelist in zbud_alloc.

      zsmalloc: simplify init_zspage free obj linking · 5538c562
      Dan Streetman authored
      Change zsmalloc init_zspage() logic to iterate through each object on each
      of its pages, checking the offset to verify the object is on the current
      page before linking it into the zspage.
      
      The current zsmalloc init_zspage free object linking code has logic that
      relies on there only being one page per zspage when PAGE_SIZE is a
      multiple of class->size.  It calculates the number of objects for the
      current page, and iterates through all of them plus one, to account for
      the assumed partial object at the end of the page.  While this currently
      works, the logic can be simplified to just link the object at each
      successive offset until the offset is larger than PAGE_SIZE, which does
      not rely on PAGE_SIZE being a multiple of class->size.

      zram: use notify_free to account all free notifications · 015254da
      Sergey Senozhatsky authored
      `notify_free' device attribute accounts the number of slot free
      notifications and internally represents the number of zram_free_page()
      calls.  Slot free notifications are sent only when device is used as a
      swap device, hence `notify_free' is used only for swap devices.  Since
      f4659d8e (zram: support REQ_DISCARD) ZRAM handles yet another one
      free notification (also via zram_free_page() call) -- REQ_DISCARD
      requests, which are sent by a filesystem, whenever some data blocks are
      discarded.  However, there is no way to know the number of notifications
      in the latter case.
      
      Use `notify_free' to account the number of pages freed by
      zram_bio_discard() and zram_slot_free_notify().  Depending on usage
      scenario `notify_free' represents:
      
       a) the number of pages freed because of slot free notifications, which is
         equal to the number of swap_slot_free_notify() calls, so there is no
         behaviour change
      
       b) the number of pages freed because of REQ_DISCARD notifications

      zram: report maximum used memory · 461a8eee
      Minchan Kim authored
      Normally, zram user could get maximum memory usage zram consumed via
      polling mem_used_total with sysfs in userspace.
      
      But it has a critical problem because user can miss peak memory usage
      during update inverval of polling.  For avoiding that, user should poll it
      with shorter interval(ie, 0.0000000001s) with mlocking to avoid page fault
      delay when memory pressure is heavy.  It would be troublesome.
      
      This patch adds new knob "mem_used_max" so user could see the maximum
      memory usage easily via reading the knob and reset it via "echo 0 >
      /sys/block/zram0/mem_used_max".

      zram: zram memory size limitation · 9ada9da9
      Minchan Kim authored
      Since zram has no control feature to limit memory usage, it makes hard to
      manage system memrory.
      
      This patch adds new knob "mem_limit" via sysfs to set up the a limit so
      that zram could fail allocation once it reaches the limit.
      
      In addition, user could change the limit in runtime so that he could
      manage the memory more dynamically.
      
      Initial state is no limit so it doesn't break old behavior.

      zsmalloc: change return value unit of zs_get_total_size_bytes · 722cdc17
      Minchan Kim authored
      zs_get_total_size_bytes returns a amount of memory zsmalloc consumed with
      *byte unit* but zsmalloc operates *page unit* rather than byte unit so
      let's change the API so benefit we could get is that reduce unnecessary
      overhead (ie, change page unit with byte unit) in zsmalloc.
      
      Since return type is pages, "zs_get_total_pages" is better than
      "zs_get_total_size_bytes".

      zsmalloc: move pages_allocated to zs_pool · 13de8933
      Minchan Kim authored
      Currently, zram has no feature to limit memory so theoretically zram can
      deplete system memory.  Users have asked for a limit several times as even
      without exhaustion zram makes it hard to control memory usage of the
      platform.  This patchset adds the feature.
      
      Patch 1 makes zs_get_total_size_bytes faster because it would be used
      frequently in later patches for the new feature.
      
      Patch 2 changes zs_get_total_size_bytes's return unit from bytes to page
      so that zsmalloc doesn't need unnecessary operation(ie, << PAGE_SHIFT).
      
      Patch 3 adds new feature.  I added the feature into zram layer, not
      zsmalloc because limiation is zram's requirement, not zsmalloc so any
      other user using zsmalloc(ie, zpool) shouldn't affected by unnecessary
      branch of zsmalloc.  In future, if every users of zsmalloc want the
      feature, then, we could move the feature from client side to zsmalloc
      easily but vice versa would be painful.
      
      Patch 4 adds news facility to report maximum memory usage of zram so that
      this avoids user polling frequently via /sys/block/zram0/ mem_used_total
      and ensures transient max are not missed.
      
      This patch (of 4):
      
      pages_allocated has counted in size_class structure and when user of
      zsmalloc want to see total_size_bytes, it should gather all of count from
      each size_class to report the sum.
      
      It's not bad if user don't see the value often but if user start to see
      the value frequently, it would be not a good deal for performance pov.
      
      This patch moves the count from size_class to zs_pool so it could reduce
      memory footprint (from [255 * 8byte] to [sizeof(atomic_long_t)]).

      m68k: call find_vma with the mmap_sem held in sys_cacheflush() · cd2567b6
      Davidlohr Bueso authored
      Performing vma lookups without taking the mm->mmap_sem is asking for
      trouble.  While doing the search, the vma in question can be modified or
      even removed before returning to the caller.  Take the lock (shared) in
      order to avoid races while iterating through the vmacache and/or rbtree.
      In addition, this guarantees that the address space will remain intact
      during the CPU flushing.

      vmstat: on-demand vmstat workers V8 · 7cc36bbd
      Christoph Lameter authored
      vmstat workers are used for folding counter differentials into the zone,
      per node and global counters at certain time intervals.  They currently
      run at defined intervals on all processors which will cause some holdoff
      for processors that need minimal intrusion by the OS.
      
      The current vmstat_update mechanism depends on a deferrable timer firing
      every other second by default which registers a work queue item that runs
      on the local CPU, with the result that we have 1 interrupt and one
      additional schedulable task on each CPU every 2 seconds If a workload
      indeed causes VM activity or multiple tasks are running on a CPU, then
      there are probably bigger issues to deal with.
      
      However, some workloads dedicate a CPU for a single CPU bound task.  This
      is done in high performance computing, in high frequency financial
      applications, in networking (Intel DPDK, EZchip NPS) and with the advent
      of systems with more and more CPUs over time, this may become more and
      more common to do since when one has enough CPUs one cares less about
      efficiently sharing a CPU with other tasks and more about efficiently
      monopolizing a CPU per task.
      
      The difference of having this timer firing and workqueue kernel thread
      scheduled per second can be enormous.  An artificial test measuring the
      worst case time to do a simple "i++" in an endless loop on a bare metal
      system and under Linux on an isolated CPU with dynticks and with and
      without this patch, have Linux match the bare metal performance (~700
      cycles) with this patch and loose by couple of orders of magnitude (~200k
      cycles) without it[*].  The loss occurs for something that just calculates
      statistics.  For networking applications, for example, this could be the
      difference between dropping packets or sustaining line rate.
      
      Statistics are important and useful, but it would be great if there would
      be a way to not cause statistics gathering produce a huge performance
      difference.  This patche does just that.
      
      This patch creates a vmstat shepherd worker that monitors the per cpu
      differentials on all processors.  If there are differentials on a
      processor then a vmstat worker local to the processors with the
      differentials is created.  That worker will then start folding the diffs
      in regular intervals.  Should the worker find that there is no work to be
      done then it will make the shepherd worker monitor the differentials
      again.
      
      With this patch it is possible then to have periods longer than
      2 seconds without any OS event on a "cpu" (hardware thread).
      
      The patch shows a very minor increased in system performance.

      fs/buffer.c: increase the buffer-head per-CPU LRU size · 86cf78d7
      Sebastien Buisson authored
      Increase the buffer-head per-CPU LRU size to allow efficient filesystem
      operations that access many blocks for each transaction.  For example,
      creating a file in a large ext4 directory with quota enabled will access
      multiple buffer heads and will overflow the LRU at the default 8-block LRU
      size:
      
      * parent directory inode table block (ctime, nlinks for subdirs)
      * new inode bitmap
      * inode table block
      * 2 quota blocks
      * directory leaf block (not reused, but pollutes one cache entry)
      * 2 levels htree blocks (only one is reused, other pollutes cache)
      * 2 levels indirect/index blocks (only one is reused)
      
      The buffer-head per-CPU LRU size is raised to 16, as it shows in metadata
      performance benchmarks up to 10% gain for create, 4% for lookup and 7% for
      destroy.

      MPOL_MF_LAZY from userspace for now") but it should still skip VMAs the

      Always mark pages with PageBalloon even if balloon compaction is disabled
      and expose this mark in /proc/kpageflags as KPF_BALLOON.
      
      Also this patch adds three counters into /proc/vmstat: "balloon_inflate",
      "balloon_deflate" and "balloon_migrate".  They accumulate balloon
      activity.  Current size of balloon is (balloon_inflate - balloon_deflate)
      pages.
      
      All generic balloon code now gathered under option CONFIG_MEMORY_BALLOON.
      It should be selected by ballooning driver which wants use this feature.
      Currently virtio-balloon is the only user.

      mm/balloon_compaction: redesign ballooned pages management · d6d86c0a
      Konstantin Khlebnikov authored
      Sasha Levin reported KASAN splash inside isolate_migratepages_range().
      Problem is in the function __is_movable_balloon_page() which tests
      AS_BALLOON_MAP in page->mapping->flags.  This function has no protection
      against anonymous pages.  As result it tried to check address space flags
      inside struct anon_vma.
      
      Further investigation shows more problems in current implementation:
      
      * Special branch in __unmap_and_move() never works:
        balloon_page_movable() checks page flags and page_count.  In
        __unmap_and_move() page is locked, reference counter is elevated, thus
        balloon_page_movable() always fails.  As a result execution goes to the
        normal migration path.  virtballoon_migratepage() returns
        MIGRATEPAGE_BALLOON_SUCCESS instead of MIGRATEPAGE_SUCCESS,
        move_to_new_page() thinks this is an error code and assigns
        newpage->mapping to NULL.  Newly migrated page lose connectivity with
        balloon an all ability for further migration.
      
      * lru_lock erroneously required in isolate_migratepages_range() for
        isolation ballooned page.  This function releases lru_lock periodically,
        this makes migration mostly impossible for some pages.
      
      * balloon_page_dequeue have a tight race with balloon_page_isolate:
        balloon_page_isolate could be executed in parallel with dequeue between
        picking page from list and locking page_lock.  Race is rare because they
        use trylock_page() for locking.
      
      This patch fixes all of them.
      
      Instead of fake mapping with special flag this patch uses special state of
      page->_mapcount: PAGE_BALLOON_MAPCOUNT_VALUE = -256.  Buddy allocator uses
      PAGE_BUDDY_MAPCOUNT_VALUE = -128 for similar purpose.  Storing mark
      directly in struct page makes everything safer and easier.
      
      PagePrivate is used to mark pages present in page list (i.e.  not
      isolated, like PageLRU for normal pages).  It replaces special rules for
      reference counter and makes balloon migration similar to migration of
      normal pages.  This flag is protected by page_lock together with link to
      the balloon device.

      arm: mm: introduce special ptes for LPAE · bd951303
      Steve Capper authored
      We need a mechanism to tag ptes as being special, this indicates that no
      attempt should be made to access the underlying struct page * associated

      has no means to access VMAs (that also contain this information)
      locklessly.
      
      The L_PTE_SPECIAL bit is already allocated for LPAE, this patch modifies
      pte_special and pte_mkspecial to make use of it, and defines
      __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL.
      
      This patch also excludes special ptes from the icache/dcache sync logic.

      mm: introduce a general RCU get_user_pages_fast() · 2667f50e
      Steve Capper authored
      This series implements general forms of get_user_pages_fast and
      __get_user_pages_fast in core code and activates them for arm and arm64.
      
      These are required for Transparent HugePages to function correctly, as a
      futex on a THP tail will otherwise result in an infinite loop (due to the
      core implementation of __get_user_pages_fast always returning 0).
      
      Unfortunately, a futex on THP tail can be quite common for certain
      workloads; thus THP is unreliable without a __get_user_pages_fast
      implementation.
      
      This series may also be beneficial for direct-IO heavy workloads and
      certain KVM workloads.
      
      This patch (of 6):
      
      get_user_pages_fast() attempts to pin user pages by walking the page
      tables directly and avoids taking locks.  Thus the walker needs to be
      protected from page table pages being freed from under it, and needs to
      block any THP splits.
      
      One way to achieve this is to have the walker disable interrupts, and rely
      on IPIs from the TLB flushing code blocking before the page table pages
      are freed.
      
      On some platforms we have hardware broadcast of TLB invalidations, thus
      the TLB flushing code doesn't necessarily need to broadcast IPIs; and
      spuriously broadcasting IPIs can hurt system performance if done too
      often.
      
      This problem has been solved on PowerPC and Sparc by batching up page
      table pages belonging to more than one mm_user, then scheduling an
      rcu_sched callback to free the pages.  This RCU page table free logic has
      been promoted to core code and is activated when one enables
      HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE.  Unfortunately, these architectures implement their
      own get_user_pages_fast routines.
      
      The RCU page table free logic coupled with an IPI broadcast on THP split
      (which is a rare event), allows one to protect a page table walker by
      merely disabling the interrupts during the walk.
      
      This patch provides a general RCU implementation of get_user_pages_fast
      that can be used by architectures that perform hardware broadcast of TLB
      invalidations.
      
      It is based heavily on the PowerPC implementation by Nick Piggin.

      drivers/firmware/memmap.c: don't create memmap sysfs of same firmware_map_entry · 22880ebe
      Yasuaki Ishimatsu authored
      By the following commits, we prevented from allocating firmware_map_entry
      of same memory range:
        f0093ede: drivers/firmware/memmap.c: don't allocate firmware_map_entry
                  of same memory range
        49c8b24d: drivers/firmware/memmap.c: pass the correct argument to
                  firmware_map_find_entry_bootmem()
      
      But it's not enough. When PNP0C80 device is added by acpi_scan_init(),
      memmap sysfses of same firmware_map_entry are created twice as follows:
      
        # cat /sys/firmware/memmap/*/start
        0x40000000000
        0x60000000000
        0x4a837000
        0x4a83a000
        0x4a8b5000
        ...
        0x40000000000
        0x60000000000
        ...
      
      The flows of the issues are as follows:
      
        1. e820_reserve_resources() allocates firmware_map_entrys of all
           memory ranges defined in e820. And, these firmware_map_entrys
           are linked with map_entries list.
      
           map_entries -> entry 1 -> ... -> entry N
      
        2. When PNP0C80 device is limited by mem= boot option, acpi_scan_init()
           added the memory device. In this case, firmware_map_add_hotplug()
           allocates firmware_map_entry and creates memmap sysfs.
      
           map_entries -> entry 1 -> ... -> entry N -> entry N+1
                                                       |
                                                       memmap 1
      
        3. firmware_memmap_init() creates memmap sysfses of firmware_map_entrys
           linked with map_entries.
      
           map_entries -> entry 1 -> ... -> entry N -> entry N+1

      memcg: zap memcg_can_account_kmem · cf2b8fbf
      Vladimir Davydov authored
      memcg_can_account_kmem() returns true iff
      
          !mem_cgroup_disabled() && !mem_cgroup_is_root(memcg) &&
                                         memcg_kmem_is_active(memcg);
      
      To begin with the !mem_cgroup_is_root(memcg) check is useless, because one
      can't enable kmem accounting for the root cgroup (mem_cgroup_write()
      returns EINVAL on an attempt to set the limit on the root cgroup).
      
      Furthermore, the !mem_cgroup_disabled() check also seems to be redundant.
      The point is memcg_can_account_kmem() is called from three places:
      mem_cgroup_salbinfo_read(), __memcg_kmem_get_cache(), and
      __memcg_kmem_newpage_charge().  The latter two functions are only invoked
      if memcg_kmem_enabled() returns true, which implies that the memory cgroup
      subsystem is enabled.  And mem_cgroup_slabinfo_read() shows the output of
      memory.kmem.slabinfo, which won't exist if the memory cgroup is completely
      disabled.
      
      So let's substitute all the calls to memcg_can_account_kmem() with plain
      memcg_kmem_is_active(), and kill the former.

      mm: memcontrol: fix transparent huge page allocations under pressure · b70a2a21
      Johannes Weiner authored
      In a memcg with even just moderate cache pressure, success rates for
      transparent huge page allocations drop to zero, wasting a lot of effort
      that the allocator puts into assembling these pages.
      
      The reason for this is that the memcg reclaim code was never designed for
      higher-order charges.  It reclaims in small batches until there is room
      for at least one page.  Huge page charges only succeed when these batches
      add up over a series of huge faults, which is unlikely under any
      significant load involving order-0 allocations in the group.
      
      Remove that loop on the memcg side in favor of passing the actual reclaim
      goal to direct reclaim, which is already set up and optimized to meet
      higher-order goals efficiently.
      
      This brings memcg's THP policy in line with the system policy: if the
      allocator painstakingly assembles a hugepage, memcg will at least make an
      honest effort to charge it.  As a result, transparent hugepage allocation
      rates amid cache activity are drastically improved:
      
                                            vanilla                 patched
      pgalloc                 4717530.80 (  +0.00%)   4451376.40 (  -5.64%)
      pgfault                  491370.60 (  +0.00%)    225477.40 ( -54.11%)
      pgmajfault                    2.00 (  +0.00%)         1.80 (  -6.67%)

      [ Note: this may in turn increase memory consumption from internal
        fragmentation, which is an inherent risk of transparent hugepages.
        Some setups may have to adjust the memcg limits accordingly to
        accomodate this - or, if the machine is already packed to capacity,
        disable the transparent huge page feature. ]

      mm: memcontrol: simplify detecting when the memory+swap limit is hit · 3fbe7244
      Johannes Weiner authored
      When attempting to charge pages, we first charge the memory counter and
      then the memory+swap counter.  If one of the counters is at its limit, we
      enter reclaim, but if it's the memory+swap counter, reclaim shouldn't swap
      because that wouldn't change the situation.  However, if the counters have
      the same limits, we never get to the memory+swap limit.  To know whether
      reclaim should swap or not, there is a state flag that indicates whether
      the limits are equal and whether hitting the memory limit implies hitting
      the memory+swap limit.
      
      Just try the memory+swap counter first.

      mm: memcontrol: do not kill uncharge batching in free_pages_and_swap_cache · aabfb572
      Michal Hocko authored
      free_pages_and_swap_cache limits release_pages to PAGEVEC_SIZE chunks.
      This is not a big deal for the normal release path but it completely kills
      memcg uncharge batching which reduces res_counter spin_lock contention.
      Dave has noticed this with his page fault scalability test case on a large
      machine when the lock was basically dominating on all CPUs:

      In his case the load was running in the root memcg and that part has been
      handled by reverting 05b84301 ("mm: memcontrol: use root_mem_cgroup
      res_counter") because this is a clear regression, but the problem remains
      inside dedicated memcgs.
      
      There is no reason to limit release_pages to PAGEVEC_SIZE batches other
      than lru_lock held times.  This logic, however, can be moved inside the
      function.  mem_cgroup_uncharge_list and free_hot_cold_page_list do not
      hold any lock for the whole pages_to_free list so it is safe to call them
      in a single run.
      
      The release_pages() code was previously breaking the lru_lock each
      PAGEVEC_SIZE pages (ie, 14 pages).  However this code has no usage of
      pagevecs so switch to breaking the lock at least every SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX
      (32) pages.  This means that the lock acquisition frequency is
      approximately halved and the max hold times are approximately doubled.
      
      The now unneeded batching is removed from free_pages_and_swap_cache().
      
      Also update the grossly out-of-date release_pages documentation.

      memcg: move memcg_update_cache_size() to slab_common.c · 6f817f4c

      `While growing per memcg caches arrays, we jump between memcontrol.c and

      There's absolutely no reason why memcg_update_cache_size can't live on the

      per-memcg cache allocation functions.
      
      Besides, this patch cleans this function up a bit, removing all the
      useless comments from it, and renames it to memcg_update_cache_params to
      conform to memcg_alloc/free_cache_params, which we already have in

      memcg: don't call memcg_update_all_caches if new cache id fits · f3bb3043
      Vladimir Davydov authored
      memcg_update_all_caches grows arrays of per-memcg caches, so we only need
      to call it when memcg_limited_groups_array_size is increased.  However,
      currently we invoke it each time a new kmem-active memory cgroup is
      created.  Then it just iterates over all slab_caches and does nothing
      (memcg_update_cache_size returns immediately).
      
      This patch fixes this insanity.  In the meantime it moves the code dealing
      with id allocations to separate functions, memcg_alloc_cache_id and
      memcg_free_cache_id.

      memcg: move memcg_{alloc,free}_cache_params to slab_common.c · 33a690c4
      Vladimir Davydov authored
      The only reason why they live in memcontrol.c is that we get/put css
      reference to the owner memory cgroup in them.  However, we can do that in
      memcg_{un,}register_cache.  OTOH, there are several reasons to move them
      to slab_common.c.
      
      First, I think that the less public interface functions we have in
      memcontrol.h the better.  Since the functions I move don't depend on
      memcontrol, I think it's worth making them private to slab, especially
      taking into account that the arrays are defined on the slab's side too.
      
      Second, the way how per-memcg arrays are updated looks rather awkward: it
      proceeds from memcontrol.c (__memcg_activate_kmem) to slab_common.c
      (memcg_update_all_caches) and back to memcontrol.c again
      (memcg_update_array_size).  In the following patches I move the function
      relocating the arrays (memcg_update_array_size) to slab_common.c and
      therefore get rid this circular call path.  I think we should have the
      cache allocation stuff in the same place where we have relocation, because
      it's easier to follow the code then.  So I move arrays alloc/free
      functions to slab_common.c too.
      
      The third point isn't obvious.  I'm going to make the list_lru structure
      per-memcg to allow targeted kmem reclaim.  That means we will have
      per-memcg arrays in list_lrus too.  It turns out that it's much easier to
      update these arrays in list_lru.c rather than in memcontrol.c, because all
      the stuff we need is defined there.  This patch makes memcg caches arrays
      allocation path conform that of the upcoming list_lru.
      
      So let's move these functions to slab_common.c and make them static.
