There are several users that nest lock_page_memcg() inside lock_page() to prevent page->mem_cgroup from changing. But the page lock prevents pages from moving between cgroups, so that is unnecessary overhead. Remove lock_page_memcg() in contexts with locked contexts and fix the debug code in the page stat functions to be okay with the page lock. Signed-off-by:

Now that migration doesn't clear page->mem_cgroup of live pages anymore, it's safe to make lock_page_memcg() and the memcg stat functions take pages, and spare the callers from memcg objects. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix warnings] Signed-off-by:

Changing a page's memcg association complicates dealing with the page, so we want to limit this as much as possible. Page migration e.g. does not have to do that. Just like page cache replacement, it can forcibly charge a replacement page, and then uncharge the old page when it gets freed. Temporarily overcharging the cgroup by a single page is not an issue in practice, and charging is so cheap nowadays that this is much preferrable to the headache of messing with live pages. The only place that still changes the page->mem_cgroup binding of live pages is when pages move along with a task to another cgroup. But that path isolates the page from the LRU, takes the page lock, and the move lock (lock_page_memcg()). That means page->mem_cgroup is always stable in callers that have the page isolated from the LRU or locked. Lighter unlocked paths, like writeback accounting, can use lock_page_memcg().

Cache thrash detection (see a528910e "mm: thrash detection-based file cache sizing" for details) currently only works on the system level, not inside cgroups. Worse, as the refaults are compared to the global number of active cache, cgroups might wrongfully get all their refaults activated when their pages are hotter than those of others. Move the refault machinery from the zone to the lruvec, and then tag eviction entries with the memcg ID. This makes the thrash detection work correctly inside cgroups.

For per-cgroup thrash detection, we need to store the memcg ID inside the radix tree cookie as well. However, on 32 bit that doesn't leave enough bits for the eviction timestamp to cover the necessary range of recently evicted pages. The radix tree entry would look like this: [ RADIX_TREE_EXCEPTIONAL(2) | ZONEID(2) | MEMCGID(16) | EVICTION(12) ] 12 bits means 4096 pages, means 16M worth of recently evicted pages. But refaults are actionable up to distances covering half of memory. To not miss refaults, we have to stretch out the range at the cost of how precisely we can tell when a page was evicted. This way we can shave off lower bits from the eviction timestamp until the necessary range is covered. E.g. grouping evictions into 1M buckets (256 pages) will stretch the longest representable refault distance to 4G. This patch implements eviction buckets that are automatically sized according to the available bits and the necessary refault range, in preparation for per-cgroup thrash detection. The maximum actionable distance is currently half of memory, but to support memory hotplug of up to 200% of boot-time memory, we size the buckets to cover double the distance. Beyond that, thrashing won't be detectable anymore. During boot, the kernel will print out the exact parameters, like so: [ 0.113929] workingset: timestamp_bits=12 max_order=18 bucket_order=6 In this example, there are 12 radix entry bits available for the eviction timestamp, to cover a maximum distance of 2^18 pages (this is a 1G machine). Consequently, evictions must be grouped into buckets of 2^6 pages, or 256K. Signed-off-by:

Per-cgroup thrash detection will need to derive a live memcg from the eviction cookie, and doing that inside unpack_shadow() will get nasty with the reference handling spread over two functions. In preparation, make unpack_shadow() clearly about extracting static data, and let workingset_refault() do all the higher-level handling. Signed-off-by:

Johannes Weiner authored
These patches tag the page cache radix tree eviction entries with the memcg an evicted page belonged to, thus making per-cgroup LRU reclaim work properly and be as adaptive to new cache workingsets as global reclaim already is. This should have been part of the original thrash detection patch series, but was deferred due to the complexity of those patches. This patch (of 5): So far the only sites that needed to exclude charge migration to stabilize page->mem_cgroup have been per-cgroup page statistics, hence the name mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat(). But per-cgroup thrash detection will add another site that needs to ensure page->mem_cgroup lifetime. Rename these locking functions to the more generic lock_page_memcg() and unlock_page_memcg(). Since charge migration is a cgroup1 feature only, we might be able to delete it at some point, and these now easy to identify locking sites along with it. Signed-off-by:

zone_reclaimable_pages() is used in should_reclaim_retry() which uses it to calculate the target for the watermark check. This means that precise numbers are important for the correct decision. zone_reclaimable_pages uses zone_page_state which can contain stale data with per-cpu diffs not synced yet (the last vmstat_update might have run 1s in the past). Use zone_page_state_snapshot() in zone_reclaimable_pages() instead. None of the current callers is in a hot path where getting the precise value (which involves per-cpu iteration) would cause an unreasonable overhead. Signed-off-by:

Anyway, running on non-NUMA machine shouldn't make a shrinker NUMA unaware, so zap this hunk. Signed-off-by:

Currently, all newly added memory blocks remain in 'offline' state unless someone onlines them, some linux distributions carry special udev rules like: SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ACTION=="add", ATTR{state}=="offline", ATTR{state}="online" to make this happen automatically. This is not a great solution for virtual machines where memory hotplug is being used to address high memory pressure situations as such onlining is slow and a userspace process doing this (udev) has a chance of being killed by the OOM killer as it will probably require to allocate some memory. Introduce default policy for the newly added memory blocks in /sys/devices/system/memory/auto_online_blocks file with two possible values: "offline" which preserves the current behavior and "online" which causes all newly added memory blocks to go online as soon as they're added. The default is "offline". Signed-off-by:

By default, page poisoning uses a poison value (0xaa) on free. If this is changed to 0, the page is not only sanitized but zeroing on alloc with __GFP_ZERO can be skipped as well. The tradeoff is that detecting corruption from the poisoning is harder to detect. This feature also cannot be used with hibernation since pages are not guaranteed to be zeroed after hibernation.

Page poisoning is currently set up as a feature if architectures don't have architecture debug page_alloc to allow unmapping of pages. It has uses apart from that though. Clearing of the pages on free provides an increase in security as it helps to limit the risk of information leaks. Allow page poisoning to be enabled as a separate option independent of kernel_map pages since the two features do separate work. Because of how hiberanation is implemented, the checks on alloc cannot occur if hibernation is enabled. The runtime alloc checks can also be enabled with an option when !HIBERNATION.

Since bad_page() is the only user of the badflags parameter of dump_page_badflags(), we can move the code to bad_page() and simplify a bit. The dump_page_badflags() function is renamed to __dump_page() and can still be called separately from dump_page() for temporary debug prints where page_owner info is not desired. The only user-visible change is that page->mem_cgroup is printed before the bad flags. Signed-off-by:

The page_owner mechanism is useful for dealing with memory leaks. By reading /sys/kernel/debug/page_owner one can determine the stack traces leading to allocations of all pages, and find e.g. a buggy driver. This information might be also potentially useful for debugging, such as the VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() calls to dump_page(). So let's print the stored info from dump_page().

During migration, page_owner info is now copied with the rest of the page, so the stacktrace leading to free page allocation during migration is overwritten. For debugging purposes, it might be however useful to know that the page has been migrated since its initial allocation. This might happen many times during the lifetime for different reasons and fully tracking this, especially with stacktraces would incur extra memory costs. As a compromise, store and print the migrate_reason of the last migration that occurred to the page. This is enough to distinguish compaction, numa balancing etc. Example page_owner entry after the patch: Page allocated via order 0, mask 0x24200ca(GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE) PFN 628753 type Movable Block 1228 type Movable Flags 0x1fffff80040030(dirty|lru|swapbacked) [<ffffffff811682c4>] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x134/0x230 [<ffffffff811b6325>] alloc_pages_vma+0xb5/0x250 [<ffffffff81177491>] shmem_alloc_page+0x61/0x90 [<ffffffff8117a438>] shmem_getpage_gfp+0x678/0x960 [<ffffffff8117c2b9>] shmem_fallocate+0x329/0x440 [<ffffffff811de600>] vfs_fallocate+0x140/0x230 [<ffffffff811df434>] SyS_fallocate+0x44/0x70 [<ffffffff8158cc2e>] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x12/0x71 Page has been migrated, last migrate reason: compaction Signed-off-by:

The page_owner mechanism stores gfp_flags of an allocation and stack trace that lead to it. During page migration, the original information is practically replaced by the allocation of free page as the migration target. Arguably this is less useful and might lead to all the page_owner info for migratable pages gradually converge towards compaction or numa balancing migrations. It has also lead to inaccuracies such as one fixed by commit e2cfc911 ("mm/page_owner: set correct gfp_mask on page_owner"). This patch thus introduces copying the page_owner info during migration. However, since the fact that the page has been migrated from its original place might be useful for debugging, the next patch will introduce a way to track that information as well. Signed-off-by:

The information in /sys/kernel/debug/page_owner includes the migratetype of the pageblock the page belongs to. This is also checked against the page's migratetype (as declared by gfp_flags during its allocation), and the page is reported as Fallback if its migratetype differs from the pageblock's one. t This is somewhat misleading because in fact fallback allocation is not the only reason why these two can differ. It also doesn't direcly provide the page's migratetype, although it's possible to derive that from the gfp_flags. It's arguably better to print both page and pageblock's migratetype and leave the interpretation to the consumer than to suggest fallback allocation as the only possible reason. While at it, we can print the migratetypes as string the same way as /proc/pagetypeinfo does, as some of the numeric values depend on kernel configuration. For that, this patch moves the migratetype_names array from #ifdef CONFIG_PROC_FS part of mm/vmstat.c to mm/page_alloc.c and exports it. With the new format strings for flags, we can now also provide symbolic page and gfp flags in the /sys/kernel/debug/page_owner file. This replaces the positional printing of page flags as single letters, which might have looked nicer, but was limited to a subset of flags, and required the user to remember the letters. Example page_owner entry after the patch: Page allocated via order 0, mask 0x24213ca(GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE|__GFP_COLD|__GFP_NOWARN|__GFP_NORETRY) PFN 520 type Movable Block 1 type Movable Flags 0xfffff8001006c(referenced|uptodate|lru|active|mappedtodisk) [<ffffffff811682c4>] __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x134/0x230 [<ffffffff811b4058>] alloc_pages_current+0x88/0x120 [<ffffffff8115e386>] __page_cache_alloc+0xe6/0x120 [<ffffffff8116ba6c>] __do_page_cache_readahead+0xdc/0x240 [<ffffffff8116bd05>] ondemand_readahead+0x135/0x260 [<ffffffff8116bfb1>] page_cache_sync_readahead+0x31/0x50 [<ffffffff81160523>] generic_file_read_iter+0x453/0x760 [<ffffffff811e0d57>] __vfs_read+0xa7/0xd0 Signed-off-by:

It would be useful to translate gfp_flags into string representation when printing in case of an OOM, especially as the flags have been undergoing some changes recently and the script ./scripts/gfp-translate needs a matching source version to be accurate.

With the new printk format strings for flags, we can get rid of dump_flags() in mm/debug.c. This also fixes dump_vma() which used dump_flags() for printing vma flags. However dump_flags() did a page-flags specific filtering of bits higher than NR_PAGEFLAGS in order to remove the zone id part. For dump_vma() this resulted in removing several VM_* flags from the symbolic translation. Signed-off-by:

In mm we use several kinds of flags bitfields that are sometimes printed for debugging purposes, or exported to userspace via sysfs. To make them easier to interpret independently on kernel version and config, we want to dump also the symbolic flag names. So far this has been done with repeated calls to pr_cont(), which is unreliable on SMP, and not usable for e.g. sysfs export. To get a more reliable and universal solution, this patch extends printk() format string for pointers to handle the page flags (%pGp), gfp_flags (%pGg) and vma flags (%pGv). Existing users of dump_flag_names() are converted and simplified. It would be possible to pass flags by value instead of pointer, but the %p format string for pointers already has extensions for various kernel structures, so it's a good fit, and the extra indirection in a non-critical path is negligible.

In tracepoints, it's possible to print gfp flags in a human-friendly format through a macro show_gfp_flags(), which defines a translation array and passes is to __print_flags(). Since the following patch will introduce support for gfp flags printing in printk(), it would be nice to reuse the array. This is not straightforward, since __print_flags() can't simply reference an array defined in a .c file such as mm/debug.c - it has to be a macro to allow the macro magic to communicate the format to userspace tools such as trace-cmd. The solution is to create a macro __def_gfpflag_names which is used both in show_gfp_flags(), and to define the gfpflag_names[] array in mm/debug.c. On the other hand, mm/debug.c also defines translation tables for page flags and vma flags, and desire was expressed (but not implemented in this series) to use these also from tracepoints. Thus, this patch also renames the events/gfpflags.h file to events/mmflags.h and moves the table definitions there, using the same macro approach as for gfpflags. This allows translating all three kinds of mm-specific flags both in tracepoints and printk. Signed-off-by:

The show_gfp_flags() macro provides human-friendly printing of gfp flags in tracepoints. However, it is somewhat out of date and missing several flags. This patches fills in the missing flags, and distinguishes properly between GFP_ATOMIC and __GFP_ATOMIC which were both translated to "GFP_ATOMIC". More generally, all __GFP_X flags which were previously printed as GFP_X, are now printed as __GFP_X, since ommiting the underscores results in output that doesn't actually match the source code, and can only lead to confusion. Where both variants are defined equal (e.g. _DMA and _DMA32), the variant without underscores are preferred. Also add a note in gfp.h so hopefully future changes will be synced better. __GFP_MOVABLE is defined twice in include/linux/gfp.h with different comments. Leave just the newer one, which was intended to replace the old one. Signed-off-by:

In the generic read paths the kernel looks up a page in the page cache and if it's up to date, it is used. If not, the page lock is acquired to wait for IO to complete and then check the page. If multiple processes are waiting on IO, they all serialise against the lock and duplicate the checks. This is unnecessary. The page lock in itself does not give any guarantees to the callers about the page state as it can be immediately truncated or reclaimed after the page is unlocked. It's sufficient to wait_on_page_locked and then continue if the page is up to date on wakeup. It is possible that a truncated but up-to-date page is returned but the reference taken during read prevents it disappearing underneath the caller and the data is still valid if PageUptodate. The overall impact is small as even if processes serialise on the lock, the lock section is tiny once the IO is complete. Profiles indicated that unlock_page and friends are generally a tiny portion of a read-intensive workload. An artificial test was created that had instances of dd access a cache-cold file on an ext4 filesystem and measure how long the read took. paralleldd 4.4.0 4.4.0 vanilla avoidlock Amean Elapsd-1 5.28 ( 0.00%) 5.15 ( 2.50%) Amean Elapsd-4 5.29 ( 0.00%) 5.17 ( 2.12%) Amean Elapsd-7 5.28 ( 0.00%) 5.18 ( 1.78%) Amean Elapsd-12 5.20 ( 0.00%) 5.33 ( -2.50%) Amean Elapsd-21 5.14 ( 0.00%) 5.21 ( -1.41%) Amean Elapsd-30 5.30 ( 0.00%) 5.12 ( 3.38%) Amean Elapsd-48 5.78 ( 0.00%) 5.42 ( 6.21%) Amean Elapsd-79 6.78 ( 0.00%) 6.62 ( 2.46%) Amean Elapsd-110 9.09 ( 0.00%) 8.99 ( 1.15%) Amean Elapsd-128 10.60 ( 0.00%) 10.43 ( 1.66%) The impact is small but intuitively, it makes sense to avoid unnecessary calls to lock_page.

Since commit 031bc574 ("mm/debug-pagealloc: make debug-pagealloc boottime configurable") CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is by default not adding any page debugging. This resulted in several unnoticed bugs, e.g. https://lkml.kernel.org/g/<569F5E29.3090107@de.ibm.com> or https://lkml.kernel.org/g/<56A20F30.4050705@de.ibm.com> as this behaviour change was not even documented in Kconfig. Let's provide a new Kconfig symbol that allows to change the default back to enabled, e.g. for debug kernels. This also makes the change obvious to kernel packagers. Let's also change the Kconfig description for CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, to indicate that there are two stages of overhead. Signed-off-by:
