The newly added nps irqchip driver causes build warnings on ARM64. include/soc/nps/common.h: In function 'nps_host_reg_non_cl': include/soc/nps/common.h:148:9: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Wint-to-pointer-cast] As the driver is only used on ARC, we don't need to see it without COMPILE_TEST elsewhere, and we can avoid the warnings by only building on 32-bit architectures even with CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST.

The page allocator fast path uses either the requested nodemask or cpuset_current_mems_allowed if cpusets are enabled. If the allocation context allows watermarks to be ignored then it can also ignore memory policies. However, on entering the allocator slowpath the nodemask may still be cpuset_current_mems_allowed and the policies are enforced. This patch resets the nodemask appropriately before entering the slowpath. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160504143628.GU2858@techsingularity.netSigned-off-by:

Bad pages should be rare so the code handling them doesn't need to be inline for performance reasons. Put it to separate function which returns void. This also assumes that the initial page_expected_state() result will match the result of the thorough check, i.e. the page doesn't become "good" in the meanwhile. This matches the same expectations already in place in free_pages_check(). !DEBUG_VM bloat-o-meter: add/remove: 1/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 134/-274 (-140) function old new delta check_new_page_bad - 134 +134 get_page_from_freelist 3468 3194 -274 Signed-off-by:

The new free_pcp_prepare() function shares a lot of code with free_pages_prepare(), which makes this a maintenance risk when some future patch modifies only one of them. We should be able to achieve the same effect (skipping free_pages_check() from !DEBUG_VM configs) by adding a parameter to free_pages_prepare() and making it inline, so the checks (and the order != 0 parts) are eliminated from the call from free_pcp_prepare(). !DEBUG_VM: bloat-o-meter reports no difference, as my gcc was already inlining free_pages_prepare() and the elimination seems to work as expected DEBUG_VM bloat-o-meter: add/remove: 0/1 grow/shrink: 2/0 up/down: 1035/-778 (257) function old new delta __free_pages_ok 297 1060 +763 free_hot_cold_page 480 752 +272 free_pages_prepare 778 - -778 Here inlining didn't occur before, and added some code, but it's ok for a debug option.

Every page allocated checks a number of page fields for validity. This catches corruption bugs of pages that are already freed but it is expensive. This patch weakens the debugging check by checking PCP pages only when the PCP lists are being refilled. All compound pages are checked. This potentially avoids debugging checks entirely if the PCP lists are never emptied and refilled so some corruption issues may be missed. Full checking requires DEBUG_VM.

Every page free checks a number of page fields for validity. This catches premature frees and corruptions but it is also expensive. This patch weakens the debugging check by checking PCP pages at the time they are drained from the PCP list. This will trigger the bug but the site that freed the corrupt page will be lost. To get the full context, a kernel rebuild with DEBUG_VM is necessary. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix build] Signed-off-by:

An important function for cpusets is cpuset_node_allowed(), which optimizes on the fact if there's a single root CPU set, it must be trivially allowed. But the check "nr_cpusets() <= 1" doesn't use the cpusets_enabled_key static key the right way where static keys eliminate branching overhead with jump labels. This patch converts it so that static key is used properly. It's also switched to the new static key API and the checking functions are converted to return bool instead of int. We also provide a new variant __cpuset_zone_allowed() which expects that the static key check was already done and they key was enabled. This is needed for get_page_from_freelist() where we want to also avoid the relatively slower check when ALLOC_CPUSET is not set in alloc_flags. The impact on the page allocator microbenchmark is less than expected but the cleanup in itself is worthwhile. 4.6.0-rc2 4.6.0-rc2 multcheck-v1r20 cpuset-v1r20 Min alloc-odr0-1 348.00 ( 0.00%) 348.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-2 254.00 ( 0.00%) 254.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-4 213.00 ( 0.00%) 213.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-8 186.00 ( 0.00%) 183.00 ( 1.61%) Min alloc-odr0-16 173.00 ( 0.00%) 171.00 ( 1.16%) Min alloc-odr0-32 166.00 ( 0.00%) 163.00 ( 1.81%) Min alloc-odr0-64 162.00 ( 0.00%) 159.00 ( 1.85%) Min alloc-odr0-128 160.00 ( 0.00%) 157.00 ( 1.88%) Min alloc-odr0-256 169.00 ( 0.00%) 166.00 ( 1.78%) Min alloc-odr0-512 180.00 ( 0.00%) 180.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-1024 188.00 ( 0.00%) 187.00 ( 0.53%) Min alloc-odr0-2048 194.00 ( 0.00%) 193.00 ( 0.52%) Min alloc-odr0-4096 199.00 ( 0.00%) 198.00 ( 0.50%) Min alloc-odr0-8192 202.00 ( 0.00%) 201.00 ( 0.50%) Min alloc-odr0-16384 203.00 ( 0.00%) 202.00 ( 0.49%) Signed-off-by:Zefan Li <lizefan@huawei.com> Cc: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by:

Check without side-effects should be easier to maintain. It also removes the duplicated cpupid and flags reset done in !DEBUG_VM variant of both free_pcp_prepare() and then bulkfree_pcp_prepare(). Finally, it enables the next patch.

Every page allocated or freed is checked for sanity to avoid corruptions that are difficult to detect later. A bad page could be due to a number of fields. Instead of using multiple branches, this patch combines multiple fields into a single branch. A detailed check is only necessary if that check fails. 4.6.0-rc2 4.6.0-rc2 initonce-v1r20 multcheck-v1r20 Min alloc-odr0-1 359.00 ( 0.00%) 348.00 ( 3.06%) Min alloc-odr0-2 260.00 ( 0.00%) 254.00 ( 2.31%) Min alloc-odr0-4 214.00 ( 0.00%) 213.00 ( 0.47%) Min alloc-odr0-8 186.00 ( 0.00%) 186.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-16 173.00 ( 0.00%) 173.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-32 165.00 ( 0.00%) 166.00 ( -0.61%) Min alloc-odr0-64 162.00 ( 0.00%) 162.00 ( 0.00%) Min alloc-odr0-128 161.00 ( 0.00%) 160.00 ( 0.62%) Min alloc-odr0-256 170.00 ( 0.00%) 169.00 ( 0.59%) Min alloc-odr0-512 181.00 ( 0.00%) 180.00 ( 0.55%) Min alloc-odr0-1024 190.00 ( 0.00%) 188.00 ( 1.05%) Min alloc-odr0-2048 196.00 ( 0.00%) 194.00 ( 1.02%) Min alloc-odr0-4096 202.00 ( 0.00%) 199.00 ( 1.49%) Min alloc-odr0-8192 205.00 ( 0.00%) 202.00 ( 1.46%) Min alloc-odr0-16384 205.00 ( 0.00%) 203.00 ( 0.98%) Again, the benefit is marginal but avoiding excessive branches is important.

Watermarks have to be checked on every allocation including the number of pages being allocated and whether reserves can be accessed.

The fair zone allocation policy is not without cost but it can be reduced slightly. This patch removes an unnecessary local variable, checks the likely conditions of the fair zone policy first, uses a bool instead of a flags check and falls through when a remote node is encountered instead of doing a full restart.

The page allocator iterates through a zonelist for zones that match the addressing limitations and nodemask of the caller but many allocations will not be restricted. Despite this, there is always functional call overhead which builds up. This patch inlines the optimistic basic case and only calls the iterator function for the complex case. A hindrance was the fact that cpuset_current_mems_allowed is used in the fastpath as the allowed nodemask even though all nodes are allowed on most systems. The patch handles this by only considering cpuset_current_mems_allowed if a cpuset exists. As well as being faster in the fast-path, this removes some junk in the slowpath.

Another year, another round of page allocator optimisations focusing this time on the alloc and free fast paths. This should be of help to workloads that are allocator-intensive from kernel space where the cost of zeroing is not nceessraily incurred. The series is motivated by the observation that page alloc microbenchmarks on multiple machines regressed between 3.12.44 and 4.4. Second, there is discussions before LSF/MM considering the possibility of adding another page allocator which is potentially hazardous but a patch series improving performance is better than whining. After the series is applied, there are still hazards. In the free paths, the debugging checking and page zone/pageblock lookups dominate but there was not an obvious solution to that. In the alloc path, the major contributers are dealing with zonelists, new page preperation, the fair zone allocation and numerous statistic updates. The fair zone allocator is removed by the per-node LRU series if that gets merged so it's nor a major concern at the moment. On normal userspace benchmarks, there is little impact as the zeroing cost is significant but it's visible aim9 4.6.0-rc3 4.6.0-rc3 vanilla deferalloc-v3 Min page_test 828693.33 ( 0.00%) 887060.00 (

Right now the oom reaper will clear TIF_MEMDIE only for tasks which were successfully reaped. This is the safest option because we know that such an oom victim would only block forward progress of the oom killer without a good reason because it is highly unlikely it would release much more memory. Basically most of its memory has been already torn down. We can relax this assumption to catch more corner cases though. The first obvious one is when the oom victim clears its mm and gets stuck later on. oom_reaper would back of on find_lock_task_mm returning NULL. We can safely try to clear TIF_MEMDIE in this case because such a task would be ignored by the oom killer anyway. The flag would be cleared by that time already most of the time anyway. The less obvious one is when the oom reaper fails due to mmap_sem contention. Even if we clear TIF_MEMDIE for this task then it is not very likely that we would select another task too easily because we haven't reaped the last victim and so it would be still the #1 candidate. There is a rare race condition possible when the current victim terminates before the next select_bad_process but considering that oom_reap_task had retried several times before giving up then this sounds like a borderline thing. After this patch we should have a guarantee that the OOM killer will not be block for unbounded amount of time for most cases. Signed-off-by:

If either the current task is already killed or PF_EXITING or a selected task is PF_EXITING then the oom killer is suppressed and so is the oom reaper. This patch adds try_oom_reaper which checks the given task and queues it for the oom reaper if that is safe to be done meaning that the task doesn't share the mm with an alive process. This might help to release the memory pressure while the task tries to exit. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix nommu build] Signed-off-by:

__alloc_pages_may_oom is the central place to decide when the out_of_memory should be invoked. This is a good approach for most checks there because they are page allocator specific and the allocation fails right after for all of them. The notable exception is GFP_NOFS context which is faking did_some_progress and keep the page allocator looping even though there couldn't have been any progress from the OOM killer. This patch doesn't change this behavior because we are not ready to allow those allocation requests to fail yet (and maybe we will face the reality that we will never manage to safely fail these request). Instead __GFP_FS check is moved down to out_of_memory and prevent from OOM victim selection there. There are two reasons for that - OOM notifiers might release some memory even from this context as none of the registered notifier seems to be FS related - this might help a dying thread to get an access to memory reserves and move on which will make the behavior more consistent with the case when the task gets killed from a different context. Keep a comment in __alloc_pages_may_oom to make sure we do not forget how GFP_NOFS is special and that we really want to do something about it. Note to the current oom_notifier users: The observable difference for you is that oom notifiers cannot depend on any fs locks because we could deadlock. Not that this would be allowed today because that would just lockup machine in most of the cases and ruling out the OOM killer along the way. Another difference is that callbacks might be invoked sooner now because GFP_NOFS is a weaker reclaim context and so there could be reclaimable memory which is just not reachable now. That would require GFP_NOFS only loads which are really rare and more importantly the observable result would be dropping of reconstructible object and potential performance drop which is not such a big deal when we are struggling to fulfill other important allocation requests.
