Memory migration uses a callback defined by the caller to determine how to allocate destination pages. When migration fails for a source page, however, it frees the destination page back to the system. This patch adds a memory migration callback defined by the caller to determine how to free destination pages. If a caller, such as memory compaction, builds its own freelist for migration targets, this can reuse already freed memory instead of scanning additional memory. If the caller provides a function to handle freeing of destination pages, it is called when page migration fails. If the caller passes NULL then freeing back to the system will be handled as usual. This patch introduces no functional change. Signed-off-by:

Instead of calling back to memcontrol.c from kmem_cache_create_memcg in order to just create the name of a per memcg cache, let's allocate it in place. We only need to pass the memcg name to kmem_cache_create_memcg for that - everything else can be done in slab_common.c. Signed-off-by:

Tracking dirty status on 2 level pages requires very ugly macros and taking into account how old the machines who can operate without PAE mode only are, lets drop soft dirty tracker from them for code simplicity (note I can't drop all the macros from 2 level pages by now since _PAGE_BIT_PROTNONE and _PAGE_BIT_FILE are still used even without tracker). Linus proposed to completely rip off softdirty support on x86-32 (even with PAE) and since for CRIU we're not planning to support native x86-32 mode, lets do that. (Softdirty tracker is relatively new feature which is mostly used by CRIU so I don't expect if such API change would cause problems for userspace). Signed-off-by:

Now that we are doing NUMA-aware shrinking, and can have shrinkers running in parallel, or working on individual nodes, it seems like we should also be sticking the node in the output. Signed-off-by:

I was looking at a trace of the slab shrinkers (attachment in this comment): https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72742#c67 and noticed that "total_scan" can go negative in some cases. We used to dump out the "total_scan" variable directly, but some of the shrinker modifications along the way changed that. This patch just dumps it out directly, again. It doesn't make any sense to derive it from new_nr and nr any more since there are now other shrinkers that can be running in parallel and mucking with those values. Here's an example of the negative numbers in the output: > kswapd0-840 [000] 160.869398: mm_shrink_slab_end: i915_gem_inactive_scan+0x0 0xffff8800037cbc68: unused scan count 10 new scan count 39 total_scan 29 last shrinker return val 256 > kswapd0-840 [000] 160.869618: mm_shrink_slab_end: i915_gem_inactive_scan+0x0 0xffff8800037cbc68: unused scan count 39 new scan count 102 total_scan 63 last shrinker return val 256 > kswapd0-840 [000] 160.870031: mm_shrink_slab_end: i915_gem_inactive_scan+0x0 0xffff8800037cbc68: unused scan count 102 new scan count 47 total_scan -55 last shrinker return val 768 > kswapd0-840 [000] 160.870464: mm_shrink_slab_end: i915_gem_inactive_scan+0x0 0xffff8800037cbc68: unused scan count 47 new scan count 45 total_scan -2 last shrinker return val 768 > kswapd0-840 [000] 163.384144: mm_shrink_slab_end: i915_gem_inactive_scan+0x0 0xffff8800037cbc68: unused scan count 45 new scan count 56 total_scan 11 last shrinker return val 0 > kswapd0-840 [000] 163.384297: mm_shrink_slab_end: i915_gem_inactive_scan+0x0 0xffff8800037cbc68: unused scan count 56 new scan count 15 total_scan -41 last shrinker return val 256 > kswapd0-840 [000] 163.384414: mm_shrink_slab_end: i915_gem_inactive_scan+0x0 0xffff8800037cbc68: unused scan count 15 new scan count 117 total_scan 102 last shrinker return val 0 > kswapd0-840 [000] 163.384657: mm_shrink_slab_end: i915_gem_inactive_scan+0x0 0xffff8800037cbc68: unused scan count 117 new scan count 36 total_scan -81 last shrinker return val 512 > kswapd0-840 [000] 163.384880: mm_shrink_slab_end: i915_gem_inactive_scan+0x0 0xffff8800037cbc68: unused scan count 36 new scan count 111 total_scan 75 last shrinker return val 256 > kswapd0-840 [000] 163.385256: mm_shrink_slab_end: i915_gem_inactive_scan+0x0 0xffff8800037cbc68: unused scan count 111 new scan count 34 total_scan -77 last shrinker return val 768 > kswapd0-840 [000] 163.385598: mm_shrink_slab_end: i915_gem_inactive_scan+0x0 0xffff8800037cbc68: unused scan count 34 new scan count 122 total_scan 88 last shrinker return val 512 Signed-off-by:

"dev" cannot be NULL because it is already checked before calling dma_pool_create(). If dev ever was NULL, the code would oops in dev_to_node() after enabling CONFIG_NUMA. It is possible that some driver is using dev==NULL and has never been run on a NUMA machine. Such a driver is probably outdated, possibly buggy and will need some attention if it starts triggering NULL derefs. Signed-off-by:

Currently, in put_compound_page(), we have ====== if (likely(!PageTail(page))) { <------ (1) if (put_page_testzero(page)) { /* ¦* By the time all refcounts have been released ¦* split_huge_page cannot run anymore from under us. ¦*/ if (PageHead(page)) __put_compound_page(page); else __put_single_page(page); } return; } /* __split_huge_page_refcount can run under us */ page_head = compound_head(page); <------------ (2) ====== if at (1) , we fail the check, this means page is *likely* a tail page. Then at (2), as compoud_head(page) is inlined, it is : ====== static inline struct page *compound_head(struct page *page) { if (unlikely(PageTail(page))) { <----------- (3) struct page *head = page->first_page; smp_rmb(); if (likely(PageTail(page))) return head; } return page; } ====== here, the (3) unlikely in the case is a negative hint, because it is *likely* a tail page. So the check (3) in this case is not good, so I introduce a helper for this case. So this patch introduces compound_head_by_tail() which deals with a possible tail page(though it could be spilt by a racy thread), and make compound_head() a wrapper on it. This patch has no functional change, and it reduces the object size slightly: text data bss dec hex filename 11003 1328 16 12347 303b mm/swap.o.orig 10971 1328 16 12315 301b mm/swap.o.patched I've ran "perf top -e branch-miss" to observe branch-miss in this case. As Michael points out, it's a slow path, so only very few times this case happens. But I grep'ed the code base, and found there still are some other call sites could be benifited from this helper. And given that it only bloating up the source by only 5 lines, but with a reduced object size. I still believe this helper deserves to exsit.

Currently, put_compound_page() carefully handles tricky cases to avoid racing with compound page releasing or splitting, which makes it quite lenthy (about 200+ lines) and needs deep tab indention, which makes it quite hard to follow and maintain. Now based on two helpers introduced in the previous patch ("mm/swap.c: introduce put_[un]refcounted_compound_page helpers for spliting put_compound_page"), this patch replaces those two lengthy code paths with these two helpers, respectively. Also, it has some comment rephrasing. After this patch, the put_compound_page() is very compact, thus easy to read and maintain. After splitting, the object file is of same size as the original one. Actually, I've diff'ed put_compound_page()'s orginal disassemble code and the patched disassemble code, the are 100% the same! This fact shows that this splitting has no functional change, but it brings readability. This patch and the previous one blow the code by 32 lines, mostly due to comments. Signed-off-by: -

This patch and the next patch refactor this function. Based on the code skeleton of put_compound_page: put_compound_pge: if !PageTail(page) put head page fastpath; return; /* else PageTail */ page_head = compound_head(page) if !__compound_tail_refcounted(page_head) put head page optimal path; <---(1) return; else put head page slowpath; <--- (2) return; This patch introduces two helpers, put_[un]refcounted_compound_page, handling the code path (1) and code path (2), respectively. They both are tagged __always_inline, thus elmiating function call overhead, making them operating the same way as before. They are almost copied verbatim(except one place, a "goto out_put_single" is expanded), with some comments rephrasing. Signed-off-by: -

Remove start_kernel()->mm_init_owner(&init_mm, &init_task). This doesn't really hurt but unnecessary and misleading. init_task is the "swapper" thread == current, its ->mm is always NULL. And init_mm can only be used as ->active_mm, not as ->mm. mm_init_owner() has a single caller with this patch, perhaps it should die. mm_init() can initialize ->owner under #ifdef. Signed-off-by:

A block device driver may choose to provide a rw_page operation. These will be called when the filesystem is attempting to do page sized I/O to page cache pages (ie not for direct I/O). This does preclude I/Os that are larger than page size, so this may only be a performance gain for some devices. Signed-off-by:
