When perf profiling a wide variety of different workloads, it was found that vmacache_find() had higher than expected cost: up to 0.08% of cpu utilization in some cases. This was found to rival other core VM functions such as alloc_pages_vma() with thp enabled and default mempolicy, and the conditionals in __get_vma_policy(). VMACACHE_HASH() determines which of the four per-task_struct slots a vma is cached for a particular address. This currently depends on the pfn, so pfn 5212 occupies a different vmacache slot than its neighboring pfn 5213. vmacache_find() iterates through all four of current's vmacache slots when looking up an address. Hashing based on pfn, an address has ~1/VMACACHE_SIZE chance of being cached in the first vmacache slot, or about 25%, *if* the vma is cached. This patch hashes an address by its pmd instead of pte to optimize for workloads with good spatial locality. This results in a higher probability of vmas being cached in the first slot that is checked: normally ~70% on the same workloads instead of 25%.

Provide list_lru_shrink_walk_irq() and let it behave like list_lru_walk_one() except that it locks the spinlock with spin_lock_irq(). This is used by scan_shadow_nodes() because its lock nests within the i_pages lock which is acquired with IRQ. This change allows to use proper locking promitives instead hand crafted lock_irq_disable() plus spin_lock(). There is no EXPORT_SYMBOL provided because the current user is in-kernel only. Add list_lru_shrink_walk_irq() which acquires the spinlock with the proper locking primitives. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180716111921.5365-5-bigeasy@linutronix.deSigned-off-by:

__list_lru_walk_one() is invoked with struct list_lru *lru, int nid as the first two argument. Those two are only used to retrieve struct list_lru_node. Since this is already done by the caller of the function for the locking, we can pass struct list_lru_node* directly and avoid the dance around it.

Move the locking inside __list_lru_walk_one() to its caller. This is a preparation step in order to introduce list_lru_walk_one_irq() which does spin_lock_irq() instead of spin_lock() for the locking. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180716111921.5365-3-bigeasy@linutronix.deSigned-off-by:

Patch series "mm/list_lru: Add list_lru_shrink_walk_irq() and a user". This series removes the local_irq_disable() around list_lru_shrink_walk() (as used by mm/workingset) by adding list_lru_shrink_walk_irq(). Vladimir Davydov preferred this over `irq' argument which I added to struct list_lru. The initial post (of this series) received a Reviewed-by tag by Vladimir Davydov which I added to each patch of the series. The series applies on top of akpm's tree which has Kirill's shrink_slab series and does not clash with it (akpm asked me to wait a week or so and repost it then). I tested the code paths by triggering the OOM-killer via memory over commit and lockdep did not complain (nor did I see any warnings). This patch (of 4): list_lru_walk_node() invokes __list_lru_walk_one() with -1 as the memcg_idx parameter. The same can be achieved by list_lru_walk_one() and passing NULL as memcg argument which then gets converted into -1. This is a preparation step when the spin_lock() function is lifted to the caller of __list_lru_walk_one(). Invoke list_lru_walk_one() instead __list_lru_walk_one() when possible.

CONFIG_THP_SWAP should depend on CONFIG_SWAP, because it's unreasonable to optimize swapping for THP (Transparent Huge Page) without basic swapping support. In original code, when CONFIG_SWAP=n and CONFIG_THP_SWAP=y, split_swap_cluster() will not be built because it is in swapfile.c, but it will be called in huge_memory.c. This doesn't trigger a build error in practice because the call site is enclosed by PageSwapCache(), which is defined to be constant 0 when CONFIG_SWAP=n. But this is fragile and should be fixed. The comments are fixed too to reflect the latest progress.

sparse_init() requires to temporary allocate two large buffers: usemap_map and map_map. Baoquan He has identified that these buffers are so large that Linux is not bootable on small memory machines, such as a kdump boot. The buffers are especially large when CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL is set, as they are scaled to the maximum physical memory size. Baoquan provided a fix, which reduces these sizes of these buffers, but it is much better to get rid of them entirely. Add a new way to initialize sparse memory: sparse_init_nid(), which only operates within one memory node, and thus allocates memory either in large contiguous block or allocates section by section. This eliminates the need for use of temporary buffers. For simplified bisecting and review temporarly call sparse_init() new_sparse_init(), the new interface is going to be enabled as well as old code removed in the next patch.

Patch series "sparse_init rewrite", v6. In sparse_init() we allocate two large buffers to temporary hold usemap and memmap for the whole machine. However, we can avoid doing that if we changed sparse_init() to operated on per-node bases instead of doing it on the whole machine beforehand. As shown by Baoquan http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180628062857.29658-1-bhe@redhat.com The buffers are large enough to cause machine stop to boot on small memory systems. Another benefit of these changes is that they also obsolete CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_ALLOC_MEM_MAP_TOGETHER. This patch (of 5): When struct pages are allocated for sparse-vmemmap VA layout, we first try to allocate one large buffer, and than if that fails allocate struct pages for each section as we go. The code that allocates buffer is uses global variables and is spread across several call sites. Cleanup the code by introducing three functions to handle the global buffer: sparse_buffer_init() initialize the buffer sparse_buffer_fini() free the remaining part of the buffer sparse_buffer_alloc() alloc from the buffer, and if buffer is empty return NULL Define these functions in sparse.c instead of sparse-vmemmap.c because later we will use them for non-vmemmap sparse allocations as well.

When using 1GiB pages during early boot, use the new memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_raw() to allocate memory without zeroing it. Zeroing out hundreds or thousands of GiB in a single core memset() call is very slow, and can make early boot last upwards of 20-30 minutes on multi TiB machines. The memory does not need to be zero'd as the hugetlb pages are always zero'd on page fault. Tested: Booted with ~3800 1G pages, and it booted successfully in roughly the same amount of time as with 0, as opposed to the 25+ minutes it would take before.

Aaron Lu authored
To improve page allocator's performance for order-0 pages, each CPU has a Per-CPU-Pageset(PCP) per zone. Whenever an order-0 page is needed, PCP will be checked first before asking pages from Buddy. When PCP is used up, a batch of pages will be fetched from Buddy to improve performance and the size of batch can affect performance. zone's batch size gets doubled last time by commit ba56e91c("mm: page_alloc: increase size of per-cpu-pages") over ten years ago. Since then, CPU has envolved a lot and CPU's cache sizes also increased. Dave Hansen is concerned the current batch size doesn't fit well with modern hardware and suggested me to do two things: first, use a page allocator intensive benchmark, e.g. will-it-scale/page_fault1 to find out how performance changes with different batch sizes on various machines and then choose a new default batch size; second, see how this new batch size work with other workloads. In the first test, we saw performance gains on high-core-count systems and little to no effect on older systems with more modest core counts. In this phase's test data, two candidates: 63 and 127 are chosen. In the second step, ebizzy, oltp, kbuild, pigz, netperf, vm-scalability and more will-it-scale sub-tests are tested to see how these two candidates work with these workloads and decides a new default according to their results. Most test results are flat. will-it-scale/page_fault2 process mode has 10%-18% performance increase on 4-sockets Skylake and Broadwell. vm-scalability/lru-file-mmap-read has 17%-47% performance increase for 4-sockets servers while for 2-sockets servers, it caused 3%-8% performance drop. Further analysis showed that, with a larger pcp->batch and thus larger pcp->high(the relationship of pcp->high=6 * pcp->batch is maintained in this patch), zone lock contention shifted to LRU add side lock contention and that caused performance drop. This performance drop might be mitigated by others' work on optimizing LRU lock. Another downside of increasing pcp->batch is, when PCP is used up and need to fetch a batch of pages from Buddy, since batch is increased, that time can be longer than before. My understanding is, this doesn't affect slowpath where direct reclaim and compaction dominates. For fastpath, throughput is a win(according to will-it-scale/page_fault1) but worst latency can be larger now. Overall, I think double the batch size from 31 to 63 is relatively safe and provide good performance boost for high-core-count systems. The two phase's test results are listed below(all tests are done with THP disabled). Phase one(will-it-scale/page_fault1) test results: Skylake-EX: increased batch size has a good effect on zone->lock contention, though LRU contention will rise at the same time and limited the final performance increase. batch score change zone_contention lru_contention total_contention 31 15345900 +0.00% 64% 8% 72% 53 17903847 +16.67% 32% 38% 70% 63 17992886 +17.25% 24% 45% 69% 73 18022825 +17.44% 10% 61% 71% 119 18023401 +17.45% 4% 66% 70% 127 18029012 +17.48% 3% 66% 69% 137 18036075 +17.53% 4% 66% 70% 165 18035964 +17.53% 2% 67% 69% 188 18101105 +17.95% 2% 67% 69% 223 18130951 +18.15% 2% 67% 69% 255 18118898 +18.07% 2% 67% 69% 267 18101559 +17.96% 2% 67% 69% 299 18160468 +18.34% 2% 68% 70% 320 18139845 +18.21% 2% 67% 69% 393 18160869 +18.34% 2% 68% 70% 424 18170999 +18.41% 2% 68% 70% 458 18144868 +18.24% 2% 68% 70% 467 18142366 +18.22% 2% 68% 70% 498 18154549 +18.30% 1% 68% 69% 511 18134525 +18.17% 1% 69% 70% Broadwell-EX: similar pattern as Skylake-EX. batch score change zone_contention lru_contention total_contention 31 16703983 +0.00% 67% 7% 74% 53 18195393 +8.93% 43% 28% 71% 63 18288885 +9.49% 38% 33% 71% 73 18344329 +9.82% 35% 37% 72% 119 18535529 +10.96% 24% 46% 70% 127 18513596 +10.83% 23% 48% 71% 137 18514327 +10.84% 23% 48% 71% 165 18511840 +10.82% 22% 49% 71% 188 18593478 +11.31% 17% 53% 70% 223 18601667 +11.36% 17% 52% 69% 255 18774825 +12.40% 12% 58% 70% 267 18754781 +12.28% 9% 60% 69% 299 18892265 +13.10% 7% 63% 70% 320 18873812 +12.99% 8% 62% 70% 393 18891174 +13.09% 6% 64% 70% 424 18975108 +13.60% 6% 64% 70% 458 18932364 +13.34% 8% 62% 70% 467 18960891 +13.51% 5% 65% 70% 498 18944526 +13.41% 5% 64% 69% 511 18960839 +13.51% 5% 64% 69% Skylake-EP: although increased batch reduced zone->lock contention, but the effect is not as good as EX: zone->lock contention is still as high as 20% with a very high batch value instead of 1% on Skylake-EX or 5% on Broadwell-EX.

This reverts ee8f248d ("hugetlb: add phys addr to struct huge_bootmem_page"). At one time powerpc used this field and supporting code. However that was removed with commit 79cc38de ("powerpc/mm/hugetlb: Add support for reserving gigantic huge pages via kernel command line"). There are no users of this field and supporting code, so remove it. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180711195913.1294-1-mike.kravetz@oracle.comSigned-off-by:

Tetsuo has pointed out that since 27ae357f ("mm, oom: fix concurrent munlock and oom reaper unmap, v3") we have a strong synchronization between the oom_killer and victim's exiting because both have to take the oom_lock. Therefore the original heuristic to sleep for a short time in out_of_memory doesn't serve the original purpose. Moreover Tetsuo has noticed that the short sleep can be more harmful than actually useful. Hammering the system with many processes can lead to a starvation when the task holding the oom_lock can block for a long time (minutes) and block any further progress because the oom_reaper depends on the oom_lock as well. Drop the short sleep from out_of_memory when we hold the lock. Keep the sleep when the trylock fails to throttle the concurrent OOM paths a bit. This should be solved in a more reasonable way (e.g. sleep proportional to the time spent in the active reclaiming etc.) but this is much more complex thing to achieve. This is a quick fixup to remove a stale code. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180709074706.30635-1-mhocko@kernel.orgSigned-off-by:

The CMA memory allocator doesn't support standard gfp flags for memory allocation, so there is no point having it as a parameter for dma_alloc_from_contiguous() function. Replace it by a boolean no_warn argument, which covers all the underlaying cma_alloc() function supports. This will help to avoid giving false feeling that this function supports standard gfp flags and callers can pass __GFP_ZERO to get zeroed buffer, what has already been an issue: see commit dd65a941 ("arm64: dma-mapping: clear buffers allocated with FORCE_CONTIGUOUS flag").

There was a bug in Linux that could cause madvise (and mprotect?) system calls to return to userspace without the TLB having been flushed for all the pages involved. This could happen when multiple threads of a process made simultaneous madvise and/or mprotect calls. This was noticed in the summer of 2017, at which time two solutions were created: 56236a59 ("mm: refactor TLB gathering API") 99baac21 ("mm: fix MADV_[FREE|DONTNEED] TLB flush miss problem") and 4647706e ("mm: always flush VMA ranges affected by zap_page_range") We need only one of these solutions, and the former appears to be a little more efficient than the latter, so revert that one.

In sparse_init(), two temporary pointer arrays, usemap_map and map_map are allocated with the size of NR_MEM_SECTIONS. They are used to store each memory section's usemap and mem map if marked as present. With the help of these two arrays, continuous memory chunk is allocated for usemap and memmap for memory sections on one node. This avoids too many memory fragmentations. Like below diagram, '1' indicates the present memory section, '0' means absent one. The number 'n' could be much smaller than NR_MEM_SECTIONS on most of systems. |1|1|1|1|0|0|0|0|1|1|0|0|...|1|0||1|0|...|1||0|1|...|0| ------------------------------------------------------- 0 1 2 3 4 5 i i+1 n-1 n If we fail to populate the page tables to map one section's memmap, its ->section_mem_map will be cleared finally to indicate that it's not present. After use, these two arrays will be released at the end of sparse_init(). In 4-level paging mode, each array costs 4M which can be ignorable. While in 5-level paging, they costs 256M each, 512M altogether. Kdump kernel Usually only reserves very few memory, e.g 256M. So, even thouth they are temporarily allocated, still not acceptable. In fact, there's no need to allocate them with the size of NR_MEM_SECTIONS. Since the ->section_mem_map clearing has been deferred to the last, the number of present memory sections are kept the same during sparse_init() until we finally clear out the memory section's ->section_mem_map if its usemap or memmap is not correctly handled. Thus in the middle whenever for_each_present_section_nr() loop is taken, the i-th present memory section is always the same one. Here only allocate usemap_map and map_map with the size of 'nr_present_sections'. For the i-th present memory section, install its usemap and memmap to usemap_map[i] and mam_map[i] during allocation. Then in the last for_each_present_section_nr() loop which clears the failed memory section's ->section_mem_map, fetch usemap and memmap from usemap_map[] and map_map[] array and set them into mem_section[] accordingly.

In sparse_init(), if CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_ALLOC_MEM_MAP_TOGETHER=y, system will allocate one continuous memory chunk for mem maps on one node and populate the relevant page tables to map memory section one by one. If fail to populate for a certain mem section, print warning and its ->section_mem_map will be cleared to cancel the marking of being present. Like this, the number of mem sections marked as present could become less during sparse_init() execution. Here just defer the ms->section_mem_map clearing if failed to populate its page tables until the last for_each_present_section_nr() loop. This is in preparation for later optimizing the mem map allocation.

Patch series "mm/sparse: Optimize memmap allocation during sparse_init()", v6. In sparse_init(), two temporary pointer arrays, usemap_map and map_map are allocated with the size of NR_MEM_SECTIONS. They are used to store each memory section's usemap and mem map if marked as present. In 5-level paging mode, this will cost 512M memory though they will be released at the end of sparse_init(). System with few memory, like kdump kernel which usually only has about 256M, will fail to boot because of allocation failure if CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y. In this patchset, optimize the memmap allocation code to only use usemap_map and map_map with the size of nr_present_sections. This makes kdump kernel boot up with normal crashkernel='' setting when CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y. This patch (of 5): nr_present_sections is used to record how many memory sections are marked as present during system boot up, and will be used in the later patch.

The patch introduces a special value SHRINKER_REGISTERING to use instead of list_empty() to differ a registering shrinker from unregistered shrinker. Why we need that at all? Shrinker registration is split in two parts. The first one is prealloc_shrinker(), which allocates shrinker memory and reserves ID in shrinker_idr. This function can fail. The second is register_shrinker_prepared(), and it finalizes the registration. This function actually makes shrinker available to be used from shrink_slab(), and it can't fail. One shrinker may be based on more then one LRU lists. So, we never clear the bit in memcg shrinker maps, when (one of) corresponding LRU list becomes empty, since other LRU lists may be not empty. See superblock shrinker for example: it is based on two LRU lists: s_inode_lru and s_dentry_lru. We do not want to clear shrinker bit, when there are no inodes in s_inode_lru, as s_dentry_lru may contain dentries. Instead of that, we use special algorithm to detect shrinkers having no elements at all its LRU lists, and this is made in shrink_slab_memcg(). See the comment in this function for the details. Also, in shrink_slab_memcg() we clear shrinker bit in the map, when we meet unregistered shrinker (bit is set, while there is no a shrinker in IDR). Otherwise, we would have done that at the moment of shrinker unregistration for all memcgs (and this looks worse, since iteration over all memcg may take much time). Also this would have imposed restrictions on shrinker unregistration order for its users: they would have had to guarantee, there are no new elements after unregister_shrinker() (otherwise, a new added element would have set a bit). So, if we meet a set bit in map and no shrinker in IDR when we're iterating over the map in shrink_slab_memcg(), this means the corresponding shrinker is unregistered, and we must clear the bit. Another case is shrinker registration. We want two things there: 1) do_shrink_slab() can be called only for completely registered shrinkers; 2) shrinker internal lists may be populated in any order with register_shrinker_prepared() (let's talk on the example with sb). Both of: a)list_lru_add(&inode->i_sb->s_inode_lru, &inode->i_lru); [cpu0] memcg_set_shrinker_bit(); [cpu0] ... register_shrinker_prepared(); [cpu1] and b)register_shrinker_prepared(); [cpu0] ... list_lru_add(&inode->i_sb->s_inode_lru, &inode->i_lru); [cpu1] memcg_set_shrinker_bit(); [cpu1] are legitimate. We don't want to impose restriction here and to force people to use only (b) variant. We don't want to force people to care, there is no elements in LRU lists before the shrinker is completely registered. Internal users of LRU lists and shrinker code are two different subsystems, and they have to be closed in themselves each other. In (a) case we have the bit set before shrinker is completely registered. We don't want do_shrink_slab() is called at this moment, so we have to detect such the registering shrinkers. Before this patch list_empty() (shrinker is not linked to the list) check was used for that. So, in (a) there could be a bit set, but we don't call do_shrink_slab() unless shrinker is linked to the list. It's just an indicator, I just overloaded linking to the list. This was not the best solution, since it's better not to touch the shrinker memory from shrink_slab_memcg() before it's completely registered (this also will be useful in the future to make shrink_slab() completely lockless). So, this patch introduces better way to detect registering shrinker, which allows not to dereference shrinker memory. It's just a ~0UL value, which we insert into the IDR during ID allocation. After shrinker is ready to be used, we insert actual shrinker pointer in the IDR, and it becomes available to shrink_slab_memcg(). We can't use NULL instead of this new value for this purpose as: shrink_slab_memcg() already uses NULL to detect unregistered shrinkers, and we don't want the function sees NULL and clears the bit, otherwise (a) won't work. This is the only thing the patch makes: the better way to detect registering shrinker. Nothing else this patch makes. Also this gives a better assembler, but it's minor side of the patch: Before: callq <idr_find> mov %rax,%r15 test %rax,%rax je <shrink_slab_memcg+0x1d5> mov 0x20(%rax),%rax lea 0x20(%r15),%rdx cmp %rax,%rdx je <shrink_slab_memcg+0xbd> mov 0x8(%rsp),%edx mov %r15,%rsi lea 0x10(%rsp),%rdi callq <do_shrink_slab> After: callq <idr_find> mov %rax,%r15 lea -0x1(%rax),%rax cmp $0xfffffffffffffffd,%rax ja <shrink_slab_memcg+0x1cd> mov 0x8(%rsp),%edx mov %r15,%rsi lea 0x10(%rsp),%rdi callq ffffffff810cefd0 <do_shrink_slab> [ktkhai@virtuozzo.com: add #ifdef CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM around idr_replace()] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/758b8fec-7573-47eb-b26a-7b2847ae7b8c@virtuozzo.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/153355467546.11522.4518015068123480218.stgit@localhost.localdomainSigned-off-by:Kirill Tkhai <ktkhai@virtuozzo.com> Reviewed-by:

To avoid further unneed calls of do_shrink_slab() for shrinkers, which already do not have any charged objects in a memcg, their bits have to be cleared. This patch introduces a lockless mechanism to do that without races without parallel list lru add. After do_shrink_slab() returns SHRINK_EMPTY the first time, we clear the bit and call it once again. Then we restore the bit, if the new return value is different. Note, that single smp_mb__after_atomic() in shrink_slab_memcg() covers two situations: 1)list_lru_add() shrink_slab_memcg list_add_tail() for_each_set_bit() <--- read bit do_shrink_slab() <--- missed list update (no barrier) <MB> <MB> set_bit() do_shrink_slab() <--- seen list update This situation, when the first do_shrink_slab() sees set bit, but it doesn't see list update (i.e., race with the first element queueing), is rare. So we don't add <MB> before the first call of do_shrink_slab() instead of this to do not slow down generic case. Also, it's need the second call as seen in below in (2). 2)list_lru_add() shrink_slab_memcg() list_add_tail() ... set_bit() ... ... for_each_set_bit() do_shrink_slab() do_shrink_slab() clear_bit() ... ... ... list_lru_add() ... list_add_tail() clear_bit() <MB> <MB> set_bit() do_shrink_slab() The barriers guarantee that the second do_shrink_slab() in the right side task sees list update if really cleared the bit. This case is drawn in the code comment.

We need to distinguish the situations when shrinker has very small amount of objects (see vfs_pressure_ratio() called from super_cache_count()), and when it has no objects at all. Currently, in the both of these cases, shrinker::count_objects() returns 0. The patch introduces new SHRINK_EMPTY return value, which will be used for "no objects at all" case. It's is a refactoring mostly, as SHRINK_EMPTY is replaced by 0 by all callers of do_shrink_slab() in this patch, and all the magic will happen in further.

Using the preparations made in previous patches, in case of memcg shrink, we may avoid shrinkers, which are not set in memcg's shrinkers bitmap. To do that, we separate iterations over memcg-aware and !memcg-aware shrinkers, and memcg-aware shrinkers are chosen via for_each_set_bit() from the bitmap. In case of big nodes, having many isolated environments, this gives significant performance growth. See next patches for the details. Note that the patch does not respect to empty memcg shrinkers, since we never clear the bitmap bits after we set it once. Their shrinkers will be called again, with no shrinked objects as result. This functionality is provided by next patches.

Imagine a big node with many cpus, memory cgroups and containers. Let we have 200 containers, every container has 10 mounts, and 10 cgroups. All container tasks don't touch foreign containers mounts. If there is intensive pages write, and global reclaim happens, a writing task has to iterate over all memcgs to shrink slab, before it's able to go to shrink_page_list(). Iteration over all the memcg slabs is very expensive: the task has to visit 200 * 10 = 2000 shrinkers for every memcg, and since there are 2000 memcgs, the total calls are 2000 * 2000 = 4000000. So, the shrinker makes 4 million do_shrink_slab() calls just to try to isolate SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pages in one of the actively writing memcg via shrink_page_list(). I've observed a node spending almost 100% in kernel, making useless iteration over already shrinked slab. This patch adds bitmap of memcg-aware shrinkers to memcg. The size of the bitmap depends on bitmap_nr_ids, and during memcg life it's maintained to be enough to fit bitmap_nr_ids shrinkers. Every bit in the map is related to corresponding shrinker id. Next patches will maintain set bit only for really charged memcg. This will allow shrink_slab() to increase its performance in significant way. See the last patch for the numbers.
