Currently we use struct per_cpu_nodestat to cache the vmstat counters, which leads to inaccurate statistics especially THP vmstat counters. In the systems with if hundreds of processors it can be GBs of memory. For example, for a 96 CPUs system, the threshold is the maximum number of 125. And the per cpu counters can cache 23.4375 GB in total. The THP page is already a form of batched addition (it will add 512 worth of memory in one go) so skipping the batching seems like sensible. Although every THP stats update overflows the per-cpu counter, resorting to atomic global updates. But it can make the statistics more accuracy for the THP vmstat counters. So we convert the NR_FILE_THPS account to pages. This patch is consistent with 8f182270 ("mm/swap.c: flush lru pvecs on compound page arrival"). Doing this also can make the unit of vmstat counters more unified. Finally, the unit of the vmstat counters are pages, kB and bytes. The B/KB suffix can tell us that the unit is bytes or kB. The rest which is without suffix are pages. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20201228164110.2838-4-songmuchun@bytedance.comSigned-off-by:

Patch series "Convert all THP vmstat counters to pages", v6. This patch series is aimed to convert all THP vmstat counters to pages. The unit of some vmstat counters are pages, some are bytes, some are HPAGE_PMD_NR, and some are KiB. When we want to expose these vmstat counters to the userspace, we have to know the unit of the vmstat counters is which one. When the unit is bytes or kB, both clearly distinguishable by the B/KB suffix. But for the THP vmstat counters, we may make mistakes. For example, the below is some bug fix for the THP vmstat counters: - 7de2e9f1 ("mm: memcontrol: correct the NR_ANON_THPS counter of hierarchical memcg") - The first commit in this series ("fix NR_ANON_THPS accounting in charge moving") This patch series can make the code clear. And make all the unit of the THP vmstat counters in pages. Finally, the unit of the vmstat counters are pages, kB and bytes. The B/KB suffix can tell us that the unit is bytes or kB. The rest which is without suffix are pages. In this series, I changed the following vmstat counters unit from HPAGE_PMD_NR to pages. However, there is no change to the print format of output to user space. - NR_ANON_THPS - NR_FILE_THPS - NR_SHMEM_THPS - NR_SHMEM_PMDMAPPED - NR_FILE_PMDMAPPED Doing this also can make the statistics more accuracy for the THP vmstat counters. This series is consistent with 8f182270 ("mm/swap.c: flush lru pvecs on compound page arrival"). Because we use struct per_cpu_nodestat to cache the vmstat counters, which leads to inaccurate statistics especially THP vmstat counters.

From this point of view, I think that do this converting is reasonable. Thanks Hugh for mentioning this. This was inspired by Johannes and Roman. Thanks to them. This patch (of 7): The unit of NR_ANON_THPS is HPAGE_PMD_NR already. So it should inc/dec by one rather than nr_pages.

The vmstat threshold is 32 (MEMCG_CHARGE_BATCH), Actually the threshold can be as big as MEMCG_CHARGE_BATCH * PAGE_SIZE. It still fits into s32. So introduce struct batched_lruvec_stat to optimize memory usage. The size of struct lruvec_stat is 304 bytes on 64 bit systems. As it is a per-cpu structure. So with this patch, we can save 304 / 2 * ncpu bytes per-memcg per-node where ncpu is the number of the possible CPU. If there are c memory cgroup (include dying cgroup) and n NUMA node in the system. Finally, we can save (152 * ncpu * c * n) bytes.

In general it's unknown in advance if a slab page will contain accounted objects or not. In order to avoid memory waste, an obj_cgroup vector is allocated dynamically when a need to account of a new object arises. Such approach is memory efficient, but requires an expensive cmpxchg() to set up the memcg/objcgs pointer, because an allocation can race with a different allocation on another cpu. But in some common cases it's known for sure that a slab page will contain accounted objects: if the page belongs to a slab cache with a SLAB_ACCOUNT flag set. It includes such popular objects like vm_area_struct, anon_vma, task_struct, etc. In such cases we can pre-allocate the objcgs vector and simple assign it to the page without any atomic operations, because at this early stage the page is not visible to anyone else. A very simplistic benchmark (allocating 10000000 64-bytes objects in a row) shows ~15% win. In the real life it seems that most workloads are not very sensitive to the speed of (accounted) slab allocations.

We are capable of SetPageWorkingset based on refault distances after commit aae466b0 ("mm/swap: implement workingset detection for anonymous LRU"). This is done by workingset_refault(), which is right above the unconditional SetPageWorkingset deleted by this patch. The unconditional SetPageWorkingset miscategorizes pages that are read ahead or never belonged to the working set (e.g., tmpfs pages accessed only once by fd). When those pages are swapped in (after they were swapped out) for the first time, they skew PSI (when using async swap). When this happens again, depending on their refault distances, they might skew workingset_restore_anon counter in addition to PSI because their shadows indicate they were part of the working set. Historically, SetPageWorkingset was added as part of the PSI series, and Johannes said: "It was meant to mark incoming pages under IO with SetPageWorkingset when waiting for them constituted a memory stall. On the page cache side, because we HAVE workingset detection, this was specific to recently evicted pages that had been active in their previous life. On the anon side, the aging algorithm had no distinction between workingset and sporadically used pages. Given the choice between a) no swapin stalls are pressure and b) all swapin stalls are pressure, I went with the latter in order to detect swap storms. The false positive case - high rate of swapin without severe memory pressure - was relatively unlikely, because we tried to avoid swapping until everything was completely on fire in the first place."

If there are errors during swap read or write, they can easily fill the log buffer and remove any previous messages that might be useful for debugging, especially on systems that rely for logging only on the kernel ring-buffer. For example, on a systems using zram as swap, we are more likely to see any page allocation errors preceding the swap write errors if the alerts are ratelimited.

When PAGE_SIZE is 64K, most buffer heads in the list are not needed to clear. clear_buffer_new() has an enpensive atomic modification operation, Let's add checking buffer head before clear it as __block_write_begin_int does which is good for performance.

Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) authored
For page splitting to succeed, the thread asking to split the page has to be the only one with a reference to the page. Calling wait_on_page_locked() while holding a reference to the page will effectively prevent this from happening with sufficient threads waiting on the same page. Use put_and_wait_on_page_locked() to sleep without holding a reference to the page, then retry the page lookup after the page is unlocked. Since we now get the page lock a little earlier in filemap_update_page(), we can eliminate a number of duplicate checks. The original intent (commit ebded027 ("avoid unnecessary calls to lock_page when waiting for IO to complete during a read")) behind getting the page lock later was to avoid re-locking the page after it has been brought uptodate by another thread. We still avoid that because we go through the normal lookup path again after the winning thread has brought the page uptodate.

It also stops when encountering a page marked as Readahead or !Uptodate (but does return that page) so it can be handled appropriately by filemap_get_pages().

Currently the basic tests just validate various page table transformations after starting with vm_get_page_prot(VM_READ|VM_WRITE|VM_EXEC) protection. Instead scan over the entire protection_map[] for better coverage. It also makes sure that all these basic page table tranformations checks hold true irrespective of the starting protection value for the page table entry. There is also a slight change in the debug print format for basic tests to capture the protection value it is being tested with. The modified output looks something like [pte_basic_tests ]: Validating PTE basic () [pte_basic_tests ]: Validating PTE basic (read) [pte_basic_tests ]: Validating PTE basic (write) [pte_basic_tests ]: Validating PTE basic (read|write) [pte_basic_tests ]: Validating PTE basic (exec) [pte_basic_tests ]: Validating PTE basic (read|exec) [pte_basic_tests ]: Validating PTE basic (write|exec) [pte_basic_tests ]: Validating PTE basic (read|write|exec) [pte_basic_tests ]: Validating PTE basic (shared) [pte_basic_tests ]: Validating PTE basic (read|shared) [pte_basic_tests ]: Validating PTE basic (write|shared) [pte_basic_tests ]: Validating PTE basic (read|write|shared) [pte_basic_tests ]: Validating PTE basic (exec|shared) [pte_basic_tests ]: Validating PTE basic (read|exec|shared) [pte_basic_tests ]: Validating PTE basic (write|exec|shared) [pte_basic_tests ]: Validating PTE basic (read|write|exec|shared) This adds a missing argument 'struct mm_struct *' in pud_basic_tests() test . This never got exposed before as PUD based THP is available only on X86 platform where mm_pmd_folded(mm) call gets macro replaced without requiring the mm_struct i.e __is_defined(__PAGETABLE_PMD_FOLDED).

Patch series "mm/debug_vm_pgtable: Some minor updates", v3. This series contains some cleanups and new test suggestions from Catalin from an earlier discussion. https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20201123142237.GF17833@gaia/ This patch (of 2): This adds validation tests for dirtiness after write protect conversion for each page table level. There are two new separate test types involved here. The first test ensures that a given page table entry does not become dirty after pxx_wrprotect(). This is important for platforms like arm64 which transfers and drops the hardware dirty bit (!PTE_RDONLY) to the software dirty bit while making it an write protected one. This test ensures that no fresh page table entry could be created with hardware dirty bit set. The second test ensures that a given page table entry always preserve the dirty information across pxx_wrprotect(). This adds two previously missing PUD level basic tests and while here fixes pxx_wrprotect() related typos in the documentation file.

The boot param and config determine the value of memcg_sysfs_enabled, which is unused since commit 10befea9 ("mm: memcg/slab: use a single set of kmem_caches for all allocations") as there are no per-memcg kmem caches anymore.

In deactivate_slab() we currently move all but one objects on the cpu freelist to the page freelist one by one using the costly cmpxchg_double() operation. Then we unfreeze the page while moving the last object on page freelist, with a final cmpxchg_double(). This can be optimized to avoid the cmpxchg_double() per object. Just count the objects on cpu freelist (to adjust page->inuse properly) and also remember the last object in the chain. Then splice page->freelist to the last object and effectively add the whole cpu freelist to page->freelist while unfreezing the page, with a single cmpxchg_double().

SLAB has been using get/put_online_cpus() around creating, destroying and shrinking kmem caches since 95402b38 ("cpu-hotplug: replace per-subsystem mutexes with get_online_cpus()") in 2008, which is supposed to be replacing a private mutex (cache_chain_mutex, called slab_mutex today) with system-wide mechanism, but in case of SLAB it's in fact used in addition to the existing mutex, without explanation why. SLUB appears to have avoided the cpu hotplug lock initially, but gained it due to common code unification, such as 20cea968 ("mm, sl[aou]b: Move kmem_cache_create mutex handling to common code"). Regardless of the history, checking if the hotplug lock is actually needed today suggests that it's not, and therefore it's better to avoid this system-wide lock and the ordering this imposes wrt other locks (such as slab_mutex). Specifically, in SLAB we have for_each_online_cpu() in do_tune_cpucache() protected by slab_mutex, and cpu hotplug callbacks that also take the slab_mutex, which is also taken by the common slab function that currently also take the hotplug lock. Thus the slab_mutex protection should be sufficient. Also per-cpu array caches are allocated for each possible cpu, so not affected by their online/offline state. In SLUB we have for_each_online_cpu() in functions that show statistics and are already unprotected today, as racing with hotplug is not harmful. Otherwise SLUB relies on percpu allocator. The slub_cpu_dead() hotplug callback takes the slab_mutex. To sum up, this patch removes get/put_online_cpus() calls from slab as it should be safe without further adjustments.
