This patch tracks what nodes numa hinting faults were incurred on. This information is later used to schedule a task on the node storing the pages most frequently faulted by the task. Signed-off-by:

NUMA PTE scanning slows if a NUMA hinting fault was trapped and no page was migrated. For long-lived but idle processes there may be no faults but the scan rate will be high and just waste CPU. This patch will slow the scan rate for processes that are not trapping faults. Signed-off-by:

The NUMA PTE scan rate is controlled with a combination of the numa_balancing_scan_period_min, numa_balancing_scan_period_max and numa_balancing_scan_size. This scan rate is independent of the size of the task and as an aside it is further complicated by the fact that numa_balancing_scan_size controls how many pages are marked pte_numa and not how much virtual memory is scanned. In combination, it is almost impossible to meaningfully tune the min and max scan periods and reasoning about performance is complex when the time to complete a full scan is is partially a function of the tasks memory size. This patch alters the semantic of the min and max tunables to be about tuning the length time it takes to complete a scan of a tasks occupied virtual address space. Conceptually this is a lot easier to understand. There is a "sanity" check to ensure the scan rate is never extremely fast based on the amount of virtual memory that should be scanned in a second. The default of 2.5G seems arbitrary but it is to have the maximum scan rate after the patch roughly match the maximum scan rate before the patch was applied. On a similar note, numa_scan_period is in milliseconds and not jiffies. Properly placed pages slow the scanning rate but adding 10 jiffies to numa_scan_period means that the rate scanning slows depends on HZ which is confusing. Get rid of the jiffies_to_msec conversion and treat it as ms. Signed-off-by:

Scan delay logic and resets are currently initialised to start scanning immediately instead of delaying properly. Initialise them properly at fork time and catch when a new mm has been allocated. Signed-off-by:

PTE scanning and NUMA hinting fault handling is expensive so commit 5bca2303 ("mm: sched: numa: Delay PTE scanning until a task is scheduled on a new node") deferred the PTE scan until a task had been scheduled on another node. The problem is that in the purely shared memory case that this may never happen and no NUMA hinting fault information will be captured. We are not ruling out the possibility that something better can be done here but for now, this patch needs to be reverted and depend entirely on the scan_delay to avoid punishing short-lived processes.

Avoiding marking PTEs pte_numa because a particular NUMA node is migrate rate limited sees like a bad idea. Even if this node can't migrate anymore other nodes might and we want up-to-date information to do balance decisions. We already rate limit the actual migrations, this should leave enough bandwidth to allow the non-migrating scanning. I think its important we keep up-to-date information if we're going to do placement based on it. Signed-off-by:

With a trace_printk("working\n"); right after the cmpxchg in task_numa_work() we can see that of a 4 thread process, its always the same task winning the race and doing the protection change. This is a problem since the task doing the protection change has a penalty for taking faults -- it is busy when marking the PTEs. If its always the same task the ->numa_faults[] get severely skewed. Avoid this by delaying the task doing the protection change such that it is unlikely to win the privilege again.

The zero page is not replicated between nodes and is often shared between processes. The data is read-only and likely to be cached in local CPUs if heavily accessed meaning that the remote memory access cost is less of a concern. This patch prevents trapping faults on the zero pages. For tasks using the zero page this will reduce the number of PTE updates, TLB flushes and hinting faults. Signed-off-by:

NUMA PTE scanning is expensive both in terms of the scanning itself and the TLB flush if there are any updates. The TLB flush is avoided if no PTEs are updated but there is a bug where transhuge PMDs are considered to be updated even if they were already pmd_numa. This patch addresses the problem and TLB flushes should be reduced.

A THP PMD update is accounted for as 512 pages updated in vmstat. This is large difference when estimating the cost of automatic NUMA balancing and can be misleading when comparing results that had collapsed versus split THP. This patch addresses the accounting issue. Signed-off-by:

THP migration uses the page lock to guard against parallel allocations but there are cases like this still open Task A Task B --------------------- --------------------- do_huge_pmd_numa_page do_huge_pmd_numa_page lock_page mpol_misplaced == -1 unlock_page goto clear_pmdnuma lock_page mpol_misplaced == 2 migrate_misplaced_transhuge pmd = pmd_mknonnuma set_pmd_at During hours of testing, one crashed with weird errors and while I have no direct evidence, I suspect something like the race above happened. This patch extends the page lock to being held until the pmd_numa is cleared to prevent migration starting in parallel while the pmd_numa is being cleared. It also flushes the old pmd entry and orders pagetable insertion before rmap insertion. Signed-off-by:

There are three callers of task_numa_fault(): - do_huge_pmd_numa_page(): Accounts against the current node, not the node where the page resides, unless we migrated, in which case it accounts against the node we migrated to. - do_numa_page(): Accounts against the current node, not the node where the page resides, unless we migrated, in which case it accounts against the node we migrated to. - do_pmd_numa_page(): Accounts not at all when the page isn't migrated, otherwise accounts against the node we migrated towards. This seems wrong to me; all three sites should have the same sementaics, furthermore we should accounts against where the page really is, we already know where the task is. So modify all three sites to always account; we did after all receive the fault; and always account to where the page is after migration, regardless of success. They all still differ on when they clear the PTE/PMD; ideally that would get sorted too. Signed-off-by: -

THP migrations are serialised by the page lock but on its own that does not prevent THP splits. If the page is split during THP migration then the pmd_same checks will prevent page table corruption but the unlock page and other fix-ups potentially will cause corruption. This patch takes the anon_vma lock to prevent parallel splits during migration. Signed-off-by:

Mel Gorman authored
The locking for migrating THP is unusual. While normal page migration prevents parallel accesses using a migration PTE, THP migration relies on a combination of the page_table_lock, the page lock and the existance of the NUMA hinting PTE to guarantee safety but there is a bug in the scheme. If a THP page is currently being migrated and another thread traps a fault on the same page it checks if the page is misplaced. If it is not, then pmd_numa is cleared. The problem is that it checks if the page is misplaced without holding the page lock meaning that the racing thread can be migrating the THP when the second thread clears the NUMA bit and faults a stale page. This patch checks if the page is potentially being migrated and stalls using the lock_page if it is potentially being migrated before checking if the page is misplaced or not. Signed-off-by:

This reverts commit 07f9b61c. 07f9b61c was intended to be a cleanup that didn't change anything, but in fact, for systems without _CBA (which is almost everything), it broke extended config space for domain 0 and all config space for other domains.

Pull ACPI and power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki: - The resume part of user space driven hibernation (s2disk) is now broken after the change that moved the creation of memory bitmaps to after the freezing of tasks, because I forgot that the resume utility loaded the image before freezing tasks and needed the bitmaps for that. The fix adds special handling for that case. - One of recent commits changed the export of acpi_bus_get_device() to EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(), which was technically correct but broke existing binary modules using that function including one in particularly widespread use. Change it back to EXPORT_SYMBOL(). - The intel_pstate driver sometimes fails to disable turbo if its no_turbo sysfs attribute is set. Fix from Srinivas Pandruvada. - One of recent cpufreq fixes forgot to update a check in cpufreq-cpu0 which still (incorrectly) treats non-NULL as non-error. Fix from Philipp Zabel. - The SPEAr cpufreq driver uses a wrong variable type in one place preventing it from catching errors returned by one of the functions called by it. Fix from Sachin Kamat. * tag 'pm+acpi-3.12-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: ACPI: Use EXPORT_SYMBOL() for acpi_bus_get_device() intel_pstate: fix no_turbo cpufreq: cpufreq-cpu0: NULL is a valid regulator, part 2 cpufreq: SPEAr: Fix incorrect variable type PM / hibernate: Fix user space driven resume regression

Now avc_audit() has no more users with that parameter. Remove it. Signed-off-by: -

.. so get rid of it. The only indirect users were all the avc_has_perm() callers which just expanded to have a zero flags argument. Signed-off-by: -

free_device rcu callback, scheduled from btrfs_rm_dev_replace_srcdev, can be processed before btrfs_scratch_superblock is called, which would result in a use-after-free on btrfs_device contents. Fix this by zeroing the superblock before the rcu callback is registered. Cc: Stefan Behrens <sbehrens@giantdisaster.de> Signed-off-by:

The current implementation of worker threads in Btrfs has races in worker stopping code, which cause all kinds of panics and lockups when running btrfs/011 xfstest in a loop. The problem is that btrfs_stop_workers is unsynchronized with respect to check_idle_worker, check_busy_worker and __btrfs_start_workers. E.g., check_idle_worker race flow: btrfs_stop_workers(): check_idle_worker(aworker): - grabs the lock - splices the idle list into the working list - removes the first worker from the working list - releases the lock to wait for its kthread's completion - grabs the lock - if aworker is on the working list, moves aworker from the working list to the idle list - releases the lock - grabs the lock - puts the worker - removes the second worker from the working list ...... btrfs_stop_workers returns, aworker is on the idle list FS is umounted, memory is freed ...... aworker is waken up, fireworks ensue With this applied, I wasn't able to trigger the problem in 48 hours, whereas previously I could reliably reproduce at least one of these races within an hour.
