Currently a zone's present_pages is calcuated as below, which is inaccurate and may cause trouble to memory hotplug. spanned_pages - absent_pages - memmap_pages - dma_reserve. During fixing bugs caused by inaccurate zone->present_pages, we found zone->present_pages has been abused. The field zone->present_pages may have different meanings in different contexts: 1) pages existing in a zone. 2) pages managed by the buddy system. For more discussions about the issue, please refer to: http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/5/866 https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1346751/ This patchset tries to introduce a new field named "managed_pages" to struct zone, which counts "pages managed by the buddy system". And revert zone->present_pages to count "physical pages existing in a zone", which also keep in consistence with pgdat->node_present_pages. We will set an initial value for zone->managed_pages in function free_area_init_core() and will adjust it later if the initial value is inaccurate. For DMA/normal zones, the initial value is set to: (spanned_pages - absent_pages - memmap_pages - dma_reserve) Later zone->managed_pages will be adjusted to the accurate value when the bootmem allocator frees all free pages to the buddy system in function free_all_bootmem_node() and free_all_bootmem(). The bootmem allocator doesn't touch highmem pages, so highmem zones' managed_pages is set to the accurate value "spanned_pages - absent_pages" in function free_area_init_core() and won't be updated anymore. This patch also adds a new field "managed_pages" to /proc/zoneinfo and sysrq showmem. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: small comment tweaks] Signed-off-by:

out_of_memory() is a globally defined function to call the oom killer. x86, sh, and powerpc all use a function of the same name within file scope in their respective fault.c unnecessarily. Inline the functions into the pagefault handlers to clean the code up. Signed-off-by:

out_of_memory() will already cause current to schedule if it has not been killed, so doing it again in pagefault_out_of_memory() is redundant. Remove it. Signed-off-by:

To lock the entire system from parallel oom killing, it's possible to pass in a zonelist with all zones rather than using for_each_populated_zone() for the iteration. This obsoletes try_set_system_oom() and clear_system_oom() so that they can be removed. Signed-off-by:

Now, memory management can handle movable node or nodes which don't have any normal memory, so we can dynamic configure and add movable node by: online a ZONE_MOVABLE memory from a previous offline node offline the last normal memory which result a non-normal-memory-node movable-node is very important for power-saving, hardware partitioning and high-available-system(hardware fault management).

We need a node which only contains movable memory. This feature is very important for node hotplug. If a node has normal/highmem, the memory may be used by the kernel and can't be offlined. If the node only contains movable memory, we can offline the memory and the node. All are prepared, we can actually introduce N_MEMORY. add CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE make we can use it for movable-dedicated node [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix Kconfig text] Signed-off-by:

While profiling numa/core v16 with cgroup_disable=memory on the command line, I noticed mem_cgroup_count_vm_event() still showed up as high as 0.60% in perftop. This occurs because the function is called extremely often even when memcg is disabled. To fix this, inline the check for mem_cgroup_disabled() so we avoid the unnecessary function call if memcg is disabled. Signed-off-by:

During reviewing the source code, I found a comment which mention that after f_op->mmap(), vma's start address can be changed. I didn't verify that it is really possible, because there are so many f_op->mmap() implementation. But if there are some mmap() which change vma's start address, it is possible error situation, because we already prepare prev vma, rb_link and rb_parent and these are related to original address. So add WARN_ON_ONCE for finding that this situtation really happens. Signed-off-by:

We have N_NORMAL_MEMORY for standing for the nodes that have normal memory with zone_type <= ZONE_NORMAL. And we have N_HIGH_MEMORY for standing for the nodes that have normal or high memory. But we don't have any word to stand for the nodes that have *any* memory. And we have N_CPU but without N_MEMORY. Current code reuse the N_HIGH_MEMORY for this purpose because any node which has memory must have high memory or normal memory currently. A) But this reusing is bad for *readability*. Because the name N_HIGH_MEMORY just stands for high or normal: A.example 1) mem_cgroup_nr_lru_pages(): for_each_node_state(nid, N_HIGH_MEMORY) The user will be confused(why this function just counts for high or normal memory node? does it counts for ZONE_MOVABLE's lru pages?) until someone else tell them N_HIGH_MEMORY is reused to stand for nodes that have any memory. A.cont) If we introduce N_MEMORY, we can reduce this confusing AND make the code more clearly: A.example 2) mm/page_cgroup.c use N_HIGH_MEMORY twice: One is in page_cgroup_init(void): for_each_node_state(nid, N_HIGH_MEMORY) { It means if the node have memory, we will allocate page_cgroup map for the node. We should use N_MEMORY instead here to gaim more clearly. The second using is in alloc_page_cgroup(): if (node_state(nid, N_HIGH_MEMORY)) addr = vzalloc_node(size, nid); It means if the node has high or normal memory that can be allocated from kernel. We should keep N_HIGH_MEMORY here, and it will be better if the "any memory" semantic of N_HIGH_MEMORY is removed. B) This reusing is out-dated if we introduce MOVABLE-dedicated node. The MOVABLE-dedicated node should not appear in node_stats[N_HIGH_MEMORY] nor node_stats[N_NORMAL_MEMORY], because MOVABLE-dedicated node has no high or normal memory. In x86_64, N_HIGH_MEMORY=N_NORMAL_MEMORY, if a MOVABLE-dedicated node is in node_stats[N_HIGH_MEMORY], it is also means it is in node_stats[N_NORMAL_MEMORY], it causes SLUB wrong. The slub uses for_each_node_state(nid, N_NORMAL_MEMORY) and creates kmem_cache_node for MOVABLE-dedicated node and cause problem. In one word, we need a N_MEMORY. We just intrude it as an alias to N_HIGH_MEMORY and fix all im-proper usages of N_HIGH_MEMORY in late patches. Signed-off-by: -

__alloc_contig_migrate_range() should use all possible ways to get all the pages migrated from the given memory range, so pruning per-cpu lru lists for all CPUs is required, regadless the cost of such operation. Otherwise some pages which got stuck at per-cpu lru list might get missed by migration procedure causing the contiguous allocation to fail. Reported-by:

By default kernel tries to use huge zero page on read page fault. It's possible to disable huge zero page by writing 0 or enable it back by writing 1: echo 0 >/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/use_zero_page echo 1 >/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/use_zero_page Signed-off-by:

hzp_alloc is incremented every time a huge zero page is successfully allocated. It includes allocations which where dropped due race with other allocation. Note, it doesn't count every map of the huge zero page, only its allocation. hzp_alloc_failed is incremented if kernel fails to allocate huge zero page and falls back to using small pages.

H. Peter Anvin doesn't like huge zero page which sticks in memory forever after the first allocation. Here's implementation of lockless refcounting for huge zero page. We have two basic primitives: {get,put}_huge_zero_page(). They manipulate reference counter. If counter is 0, get_huge_zero_page() allocates a new huge page and takes two references: one for caller and one for shrinker. We free the page only in shrinker callback if counter is 1 (only shrinker has the reference). put_huge_zero_page() only decrements counter. Counter is never zero in put_huge_zero_page() since shrinker holds on reference. Freeing huge zero page in shrinker callback helps to avoid frequent allocate-free. Refcounting has cost. On 4 socket machine I observe ~1% slowdown on parallel (40 processes) read page faulting comparing to lazy huge page allocation. I think it's pretty reasonable for synthetic benchmark.

Instead of allocating huge zero page on hugepage_init() we can postpone it until first huge zero page map. It saves memory if THP is not in use. cmpxchg() is used to avoid race on huge_zero_pfn initialization. Signed-off-by:

All code paths seems covered. Now we can map huge zero page on read page fault. We setup it in do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page() if area around fault address is suitable for THP and we've got read page fault. If we fail to setup huge zero page (ENOMEM) we fallback to handle_pte_fault() as we normally do in THP. Signed-off-by:

We can't split huge zero page itself (and it's bug if we try), but we can split the pmd which points to it. On splitting the pmd we create a table with all ptes set to normal zero page. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix build error] Signed-off-by:

On write access to huge zero page we alloc a new huge page and clear it. If ENOMEM, graceful fallback: we create a new pmd table and set pte around fault address to newly allocated normal (4k) page. All other ptes in the pmd set to normal zero page. Signed-off-by:
