      mm/thp: carry over dirty bit when thp splits on pmd · 0ccf7f16
      Peter Xu authored 
      Carry over the dirty bit from pmd to pte when a huge pmd splits.  It
shouldn't be a correctness issue since when pmd_dirty() we'll have the
page marked dirty anyway, however having dirty bit carried over helps the
next initial writes of split ptes on some archs like x86.

      mm/swap: add swp_offset_pfn() to fetch PFN from swap entry · 0d206b5d
      Peter Xu authored 
      We've got a bunch of special swap entries that stores PFN inside the swap
offset fields.  To fetch the PFN, normally the user just calls
swp_offset() assuming that'll be the PFN.

Add a helper swp_offset_pfn() to fetch the PFN instead, fetching only the
max possible length of a PFN on the host, meanwhile doing proper check
with MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS to make sure the swap offsets can actually store the
PFNs properly always using the BUILD_BUG_ON() in is_pfn_swap_entry().

One reason to do so is we never tried to sanitize whether swap offset can
really fit for storing PFN.  At the meantime, this patch also prepares us
with the future possibility to store more information inside the swp
offset field, so assuming "swp_offset(entry)" to be the PFN will not stand
any more very soon.

Replace many of the swp_offset() callers to use swp_offset_pfn() where
proper.  Note that many of the existing users are not candidates for the
replacement, e.g.:

  (1) When the swap entry is not a pfn swap entry at all, or,
  (2) when we wanna keep the whole swp_offset but only change the swp type.

For the latter, it can happen when fork() triggered on a write-migration
swap entry pte, we may want to only change the migration type from
write->read but keep the rest, so it's not "fetching PFN" but "changing
swap type only".  They're left aside so that when there're more
information within the swp offset they'll be carried over naturally in
those cases.

Since at it, dropping hwpoison_entry_to_pfn() because that's exactly what
the new swp_offset_pfn() is about.

      mm/x86: use SWP_TYPE_BITS in 3-level swap macros · 9c61d532
      Peter Xu authored 
      Patch series "mm: Remember a/d bits for migration entries", v4.


Problem
=======

When migrating a page, right now we always mark the migrated page as old &
clean.

However that could lead to at least two problems:

  (1) We lost the real hot/cold information while we could have persisted.
      That information shouldn't change even if the backing page is changed
      after the migration,

  (2) There can be always extra overhead on the immediate next access to
      any migrated page, because hardware MMU needs cycles to set the young
      bit again for reads, and dirty bits for write, as long as the
      hardware MMU supports these bits.

Many of the recent upstream works showed that (2) is not something trivial
and actually very measurable.  In my test case, reading 1G chunk of memory
- jumping in page size intervals - could take 99ms just because of the
extra setting on the young bit on a generic x86_64 system, comparing to
4ms if young set.

This issue is originally reported by Andrea Arcangeli.

Solution
========

To solve this problem, this patchset tries to remember the young/dirty
bits in the migration entries and carry them over when recovering the
ptes.

We have the chance to do so because in many systems the swap offset is not
really fully used.  Migration entries use swp offset to store PFN only,
while the PFN is normally not as large as swp offset and normally smaller.
It means we do have some free bits in swp offset that we can use to store
things like A/D bits, and that's how this series tried to approach this
problem.

max_swapfile_size() is used here to detect per-arch offset length in swp
entries.  We'll automatically remember the A/D bits when we find that we
have enough swp offset field to keep both the PFN and the extra bits.

Since max_swapfile_size() can be slow, the last two patches cache the
results for it and also swap_migration_ad_supported as a whole.

Known Issues / TODOs
====================

We still haven't taught madvise() to recognize the new A/D bits in
migration entries, namely MADV_COLD/MADV_FREE.  E.g.  when MADV_COLD upon
a migration entry.  It's not clear yet on whether we should clear the A
bit, or we should just drop the entry directly.

We didn't teach idle page tracking on the new migration entries, because
it'll need larger rework on the tree on rmap pgtable walk.  However it
should make it already better because before this patchset page will be
old page after migration, so the series will fix potential false negative
of idle page tracking when pages were migrated before observing.

The other thing is migration A/D bits will not start to working for
private device swap entries.  The code is there for completeness but since
private device swap entries do not yet have fields to store A/D bits, even
if we'll persistent A/D across present pte switching to migration entry,
we'll lose it again when the migration entry converted to private device
swap entry.

Tests
=====

After the patchset applied, the immediate read access test [1] of above 1G
chunk after migration can shrink from 99ms to 4ms.  The test is done by
moving 1G pages from node 0->1->0 then read it in page size jumps.  The
test is with Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v4 @ 2.20GHz.

Similar effect can also be measured when writting the memory the 1st time
after migration.

After applying the patchset, both initial immediate read/write after page
migrated will perform similarly like before migration happened.

Patch Layout
============

Patch 1-2:  Cleanups from either previous versions or on swapops.h macros.

Patch 3-4:  Prepare for the introduction of migration A/D bits

Patch 5:    The core patch to remember young/dirty bit in swap offsets.

Patch 6-7:  Cache relevant fields to make migration_entry_supports_ad() fast.

      mm, hwpoison: use __PageMovable() to detect non-lru movable pages · da294991
      Miaohe Lin authored 
      It's more recommended to use __PageMovable() to detect non-lru movable
pages. We can avoid bumping page refcnt via isolate_movable_page() for
the isolated lru pages. Also if pages become PageLRU just after they're
checked but before trying to isolate them, isolate_lru_page() will be
called to do the right work.

Basically the test program does the below conceptually:
1. mmap 0x2000000 - 0x21000000 as anonymous region
2. mmap io_uring SQ stuff at 0x20563000 with MAP_FIXED, io_uring_mmap()
   actually remaps the pages with special PTEs
3. call MADV_COLLAPSE for 0x20000000 - 0x21000000

It actually triggered the below race:

             CPU A                                          CPU B
mmap 0x20000000 - 0x21000000 as anon
                                           madvise_collapse is called on this area
                                             Retrieve start and end address from the vma (NEVER updated later!)
                                             Collapsed the first 2M area and dropped mmap_lock
Acquire mmap_lock
mmap io_uring file at 0x20563000
Release mmap_lock
                                             Reacquire mmap_lock
                                             revalidate vma pass since 0x20200000 + 0x200000 > 0x20563000
                                             scan the next 2M (0x20200000 - 0x20400000), but due to whatever reason it didn't release mmap_lock
                                             scan the 3rd 2M area (start from 0x20400000)
                                               get into the vma created by io_uring

The hend should be updated after MADV_COLLAPSE reacquire mmap_lock since
the vma may be shrunk.  We don't have to worry about shink from the other
direction since it could be caught by hugepage_vma_revalidate().  Either
no valid vma is found or the vma doesn't fit anymore.
