      mm: use managed_pages to calculate default zonelist order · 4f9f4774
      Jiang Liu authored
      Use zone->managed_pages instead of zone->present_pages to calculate
      default zonelist order because managed_pages means allocatable pages.

      mm: enhance free_reserved_area() to support poisoning memory with zero · dbe67df4
      Jiang Liu authored
      Address more review comments from last round of code review.
      1) Enhance free_reserved_area() to support poisoning freed memory with
         pattern '0'. This could be used to get rid of poison_init_mem()
         on ARM64.
      2) A previous patch has disabled memory poison for initmem on s390
         by mistake, so restore to the original behavior.
      3) Remove redundant PAGE_ALIGN() when calling free_reserved_area().

      swap: discard while swapping only if SWAP_FLAG_DISCARD_PAGES · dcf6b7dd
      Rafael Aquini authored
      Considering the use cases where the swap device supports discard:
      a) and can do it quickly;
      b) but it's slow to do in small granularities (or concurrent with other
         I/O);
      c) but the implementation is so horrendous that you don't even want to
         send one down;
      
      And assuming that the sysadmin considers it useful to send the discards down
      at all, we would (probably) want the following solutions:
      
        i. do the fine-grained discards for freed swap pages, if device is
           capable of doing so optimally;
       ii. do single-time (batched) swap area discards, either at swapon
           or via something like fstrim (not implemented yet);
      iii. allow doing both single-time and fine-grained discards; or
       iv. turn it off completely (default behavior)
      
      As implemented today, one can only enable/disable discards for swap, but
      one cannot select, for instance, solution (ii) on a swap device like (b)
      even though the single-time discard is regarded to be interesting, or
      necessary to the workload because it would imply (1), and the device is
      not capable of performing it optimally.
      
      This patch addresses the scenario depicted above by introducing a way to
      ensure the (probably) wanted solutions (i, ii, iii and iv) can be flexibly
      flagged through swapon(8) to allow a sysadmin to select the best suitable
      swap discard policy accordingly to system constraints.
      
      This patch introduces SWAP_FLAG_DISCARD_PAGES and SWAP_FLAG_DISCARD_ONCE
      new flags to allow more flexibe swap discard policies being flagged
      through swapon(8).  The default behavior is to keep both single-time, or
      batched, area discards (SWAP_FLAG_DISCARD_ONCE) and fine-grained discards
      for page-clusters (SWAP_FLAG_DISCARD_PAGES) enabled, in order to keep
      consistentcy with older kernel behavior, as well as maintain compatibility
      with older swapon(8).  However, through the new introduced flags the best
      suitable discard policy can be selected accordingly to any given swap
      device constraint.

      mm: tune vm_committed_as percpu_counter batching size · 917d9290
      Tim Chen authored
      Currently the per cpu counter's batch size for memory accounting is
      configured as twice the number of cpus in the system.  However, for
      system with very large memory, it is more appropriate to make it
      proportional to the memory size per cpu in the system.
      
      For example, for a x86_64 system with 64 cpus and 128 GB of memory, the
      batch size is only 2*64 pages (0.5 MB).  So any memory accounting
      changes of more than 0.5MB will overflow the per cpu counter into the
      global counter.  Instead, for the new scheme, the batch size is
      configured to be 0.4% of the memory/cpu = 8MB (128 GB/64 /256), which is
      more inline with the memory size.
      
      I've done a repeated brk test of 800KB (from will-it-scale test suite)
      with 80 concurrent processes on a 4 socket Westmere machine with a total
      of 40 cores.  Without the patch, about 80% of cpu is spent on spin-lock
      contention within the vm_committed_as counter.  With the patch, there's
      a 73x speedup on the benchmark and the lock contention drops off almost
      entirely.

      mm/memory_hotplug.c: change normal message to use pr_debug · 4996eed8
      Toshi Kani authored
      During early boot-up, iomem_resource is set up from the boot descriptor
      table, such as EFI Memory Table and e820.  Later,
      acpi_memory_device_add() calls add_memory() for each ACPI memory device
      object as it enumerates ACPI namespace.  This add_memory() call is
      expected to fail in register_memory_resource() at boot since
      iomem_resource has been set up from EFI/e820.  As a result, add_memory()
      returns -EEXIST, which acpi_memory_device_add() handles as the normal
      case.
      
      This scheme works fine, but the following error message is logged for
      every ACPI memory device object during boot-up.
      
        "System RAM resource %pR cannot be added\n"
      
      This patch changes register_memory_resource() to use pr_debug() for the
      message as it shows up under the normal case.

      mm/memory-failure.c: fix memory leak in successful soft offlining · f15bdfa8
      Naoya Horiguchi authored
      After a successful page migration by soft offlining, the source page is
      not properly freed and it's never reusable even if we unpoison it
      afterward.
      
      This is caused by the race between freeing page and setting PG_hwpoison.
      In successful soft offlining, the source page is put (and the refcount
      becomes 0) by putback_lru_page() in unmap_and_move(), where it's linked
      to pagevec and actual freeing back to buddy is delayed.  So if
      PG_hwpoison is set for the page before freeing, the freeing does not
      functions as expected (in such case freeing aborts in
      free_pages_prepare() check.)
      
      This patch tries to make sure to free the source page before setting
      PG_hwpoison on it.  To avoid reallocating, the page keeps
      MIGRATE_ISOLATE until after setting PG_hwpoison.
      
      This patch also removes obsolete comments about "keeping elevated
      refcount" because what they say is not true.  Unlike memory_failure(),
      soft_offline_page() uses no special page isolation code, and the
      soft-offlined pages have no elevated.

      is that the pagevec_lru_add_file, pagevec_lru_add_anon and similar
      helpers are misleading as the caller no longer has direct control over
      what LRU the page is added to.  Unused helpers are removed by this patch
      and existing users of pagevec_lru_add_file() are converted to use
      lru_cache_add_file() directly and use the per-cpu pagevecs instead of
      creating their own pagevec.

      mm: activate !PageLRU pages on mark_page_accessed if page is on local pagevec · 059285a2
      Mel Gorman authored
      If a page is on a pagevec then it is !PageLRU and mark_page_accessed()
      may fail to move a page to the active list as expected.  Now that the
      LRU is selected at LRU drain time, mark pages PageActive if they are on
      the local pagevec so it gets moved to the correct list at LRU drain
      time.  Using a debugging patch it was found that for a simple git
      checkout based workload that pages were never added to the active file
      list in practice but with this patch applied they are.
      
      				before   after
      LRU Add Active File                  0      750583
      LRU Add Active Anon            2640587     2702818
      LRU Add Inactive File          8833662     8068353
      LRU Add Inactive Anon              207         200
      
      Note that only pages on the local pagevec are considered on purpose.  A
      !PageLRU page could be in the process of being released, reclaimed,
      migrated or on a remote pagevec that is currently being drained.
      Marking it PageActive is vunerable to races where PageLRU and Active
      bits are checked at the wrong time.  Page reclaim will trigger
      VM_BUG_ONs but depending on when the race hits, it could also free a
      PageActive page to the page allocator and trigger a bad_page warning.
      Similarly a potential race exists between a per-cpu drain on a pagevec
      list and an activation on a remote CPU.
      
      				lru_add_drain_cpu
      				__pagevec_lru_add
      				  lru = page_lru(page);
      mark_page_accessed
        if (PageLRU(page))
          activate_page
        else
          SetPageActive
      				  SetPageLRU(page);
      				  add_page_to_lru_list(page, lruvec, lru);
      
      In this case a PageActive page is added to the inactivate list and later
      the inactive/active stats will get skewed.  While the PageActive checks
      in vmscan could be removed and potentially dealt with, a skew in the
      statistics would be very difficult to detect.  Hence this patch deals
      just with the common case where a page being marked accessed has just
      been added to the local pagevec.

      mm: pagevec: defer deciding which LRU to add a page to until pagevec drain time · 13f7f789
      Mel Gorman authored
      mark_page_accessed() cannot activate an inactive page that is located on
      an inactive LRU pagevec.  Hints from filesystems may be ignored as a
      result.  In preparation for fixing that problem, this patch removes the
      per-LRU pagevecs and leaves just one pagevec.  The final LRU the page is
      added to is deferred until the pagevec is drained.
      
      This means that fewer pagevecs are available and potentially there is
      greater contention on the LRU lock.  However, this only applies in the
      case where there is an almost perfect mix of file, anon, active and
      inactive pages being added to the LRU.  In practice I expect that we are
      adding stream of pages of a particular time and that the changes in
      contention will barely be measurable.

      mm: add tracepoints for LRU activation and insertions · c6286c98
      Mel Gorman authored
      Andrew Perepechko reported a problem whereby pages are being prematurely
      evicted as the mark_page_accessed() hint is ignored for pages that are
      currently on a pagevec --
      http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-ext4/msg37340.html .
      
      Alexey Lyahkov and Robin Dong have also reported problems recently that
      could be due to hot pages reaching the end of the inactive list too
      quickly and be reclaimed.
      
      Rather than addressing this on a per-filesystem basis, this series aims
      to fix the mark_page_accessed() interface by deferring what LRU a page
      is added to pagevec drain time and allowing mark_page_accessed() to call
      SetPageActive on a pagevec page.
      
      Patch 1 adds two tracepoints for LRU page activation and insertion. Using
      	these processes it's possible to build a model of pages in the
      	LRU that can be processed offline.
      
      Patch 2 defers making the decision on what LRU to add a page to until when
      	the pagevec is drained.
      
      Patch 3 searches the local pagevec for pages to mark PageActive on
      	mark_page_accessed. The changelog explains why only the local
      	pagevec is examined.
      
      Patches 4 and 5 tidy up the API.
      
      postmark, a dd-based test and fs-mark both single and threaded mode were
      run but none of them showed any performance degradation or gain as a
      result of the patch.
      
      Using patch 1, I built a *very* basic model of the LRU to examine
      offline what the average age of different page types on the LRU were in
      milliseconds.  Of course, capturing the trace distorts the test as it's
      written to local disk but it does not matter for the purposes of this
      test.  The average age of pages in milliseconds were
      
      				    vanilla deferdrain
      Average age mapped anon:               1454       1250
      Average age mapped file:             127841     155552
      Average age unmapped anon:               85        235
      Average age unmapped file:            73633      38884
      Average age unmapped buffers:         74054     116155
      
      The LRU activity was mostly files which you'd expect for a dd-based
      workload.  Note that the average age of buffer pages is increased by the
      series and it is expected this is due to the fact that the buffer pages
      are now getting added to the active list when drained from the pagevecs.
      Note that the average age of the unmapped file data is decreased as they
      are still added to the inactive list and are reclaimed before the
      buffers.
      
      There is no guarantee this is a universal win for all workloads and it
      would be nice if the filesystem people gave some thought as to whether
      this decision is generally a win or a loss.
      
      This patch:
      
      Using these tracepoints it is possible to model LRU activity and the
      average residency of pages of different types.  This can be used to
      debug problems related to premature reclaim of pages of particular
      types.

      vmcore: support mmap() on /proc/vmcore · 83086978
      HATAYAMA Daisuke authored
      This patch introduces mmap_vmcore().
      
      Don't permit writable nor executable mapping even with mprotect()
      because this mmap() is aimed at reading crash dump memory.  Non-writable
      mapping is also requirement of remap_pfn_range() when mapping linear
      pages on non-consecutive physical pages; see is_cow_mapping().
      
      Set VM_MIXEDMAP flag to remap memory by remap_pfn_range and by
      remap_vmalloc_range_pertial at the same time for a single vma.
      do_munmap() can correctly clean partially remapped vma with two
      functions in abnormal case.  See zap_pte_range(), vm_normal_page() and
      their comments for details.
      
      On x86-32 PAE kernels, mmap() supports at most 16TB memory only.  This
      limitation comes from the fact that the third argument of
      remap_pfn_range(), pfn, is of 32-bit length on x86-32: unsigned long.

      vmcore: calculate vmcore file size from buffer size and total size of vmcore objects · 591ff716
      HATAYAMA Daisuke authored
      The previous patches newly added holes before each chunk of memory and
      the holes need to be count in vmcore file size.  There are two ways to
      count file size in such a way:
      
      1) suppose m is a poitner to the last vmcore object in vmcore_list.
         Then file size is (m->offset + m->size), or
      
      2) calculate sum of size of buffers for ELF header, program headers,
         ELF note segments and objects in vmcore_list.
      
      Although 1) is more direct and simpler than 2), 2) seems better in that
      it reflects internal object structure of /proc/vmcore.  Thus, this patch
      changes get_vmcore_size_elf{64, 32} so that it calculates size in the
      way of 2).
      
      As a result, both get_vmcore_size_elf{64, 32} have the same definition.
      Merge them as get_vmcore_size.

      vmcore: allocate ELF note segment in the 2nd kernel vmalloc memory · 087350c9
      HATAYAMA Daisuke authored
      The reasons why we don't allocate ELF note segment in the 1st kernel
      (old memory) on page boundary is to keep backward compatibility for old
      kernels, and that if doing so, we waste not a little memory due to
      round-up operation to fit the memory to page boundary since most of the
      buffers are in per-cpu area.
      
      ELF notes are per-cpu, so total size of ELF note segments depends on
      number of CPUs.  The current maximum number of CPUs on x86_64 is 5192,
      and there's already system with 4192 CPUs in SGI, where total size
      amounts to 1MB.  This can be larger in the near future or possibly even
      now on another architecture that has larger size of note per a single
      cpu.  Thus, to avoid the case where memory allocation for large block
      fails, we allocate vmcore objects on vmalloc memory.
      
      This patch adds elfnotes_buf and elfnotes_sz variables to keep pointer
      to the ELF note segment buffer and its size.  There's no longer the
      vmcore object that corresponds to the ELF note segment in vmcore_list.
      Accordingly, read_vmcore() has new case for ELF note segment and
      set_vmcore_list_offsets_elf{64,32}() and other helper functions starts
      calculating offset from sum of size of ELF headers and size of ELF note
      segment.

      vmalloc: introduce remap_vmalloc_range_partial · e69e9d4a
      HATAYAMA Daisuke authored
      We want to allocate ELF note segment buffer on the 2nd kernel in vmalloc
      space and remap it to user-space in order to reduce the risk that memory
      allocation fails on system with huge number of CPUs and so with huge ELF
      note segment that exceeds 11-order block size.
      
      Although there's already remap_vmalloc_range for the purpose of
      remapping vmalloc memory to user-space, we need to specify user-space
      range via vma.
       Mmap on /proc/vmcore needs to remap range across multiple objects, so
      the interface that requires vma to cover full range is problematic.
      
      This patch introduces remap_vmalloc_range_partial that receives user-space
      range as a pair of base address and size and can be used for mmap on
      /proc/vmcore case.
      
      remap_vmalloc_range is rewritten using remap_vmalloc_range_partial.

      vmalloc: make find_vm_area check in range · cef2ac3f
      HATAYAMA Daisuke authored
      Currently, __find_vmap_area searches for the kernel VM area starting at
      a given address.  This patch changes this behavior so that it searches
      for the kernel VM area to which the address belongs.  This change is
      needed by remap_vmalloc_range_partial to be introduced in later patch
      that receives any position of kernel VM area as target address.
      
      This patch changes the condition (addr > va->va_start) to the equivalent
      (addr >= va->va_end) by taking advantage of the fact that each kernel VM
      area is non-overlapping.

      vmcore: treat memory chunks referenced by PT_LOAD program header entries in page-size boundary in vmcore_list
      
      Treat memory chunks referenced by PT_LOAD program header entries in
      page-size boundary in vmcore_list.  Formally, for each range [start,
      end], we set up the corresponding vmcore object in vmcore_list to
      [rounddown(start, PAGE_SIZE), roundup(end, PAGE_SIZE)].
      
      This change affects layout of /proc/vmcore.  The gaps generated by the
      rearrangement are newly made visible to applications as holes.
      Concretely, they are two ranges [rounddown(start, PAGE_SIZE), start] and
      [end, roundup(end, PAGE_SIZE)].
      
      Suppose variable m points at a vmcore object in vmcore_list, and
      variable phdr points at the program header of PT_LOAD type the variable
      m corresponds to.  Then, pictorially:
      
        m->offset                    +---------------+
                                     | hole          |
      phdr->p_offset =               +---------------+
        m->offset + (paddr - start)  |               |\
                                     | kernel memory | phdr->p_memsz
                                     |               |/
                                     +---------------+
                                     | hole          |
        m->offset + m->size          +---------------+
      
      where m->offset and m->offset + m->size are always page-size aligned.

      vmcore: allocate buffer for ELF headers on page-size alignment · f2bdacdd
      HATAYAMA Daisuke authored
      Allocate ELF headers on page-size boundary using __get_free_pages()
      instead of kmalloc().
      
      Later patch will merge PT_NOTE entries into a single unique one and
      decrease the buffer size actually used.  Keep original buffer size in
      variable elfcorebuf_sz_orig to kfree the buffer later and actually used
      buffer size with rounded up to page-size boundary in variable
      elfcorebuf_sz separately.
      
      The size of part of the ELF buffer exported from /proc/vmcore is
      elfcorebuf_sz.
      
      The merged, removed PT_NOTE entries, i.e.  the range [elfcorebuf_sz,
      elfcorebuf_sz_orig], is filled with 0.
      
      Use size of the ELF headers as an initial offset value in
      set_vmcore_list_offsets_elf{64,32} and
      process_ptload_program_headers_elf{64,32} in order to indicate that the
      offset includes the holes towards the page boundary.
      
      As a result, both set_vmcore_list_offsets_elf{64,32} have the same
      definition.  Merge them as set_vmcore_list_offsets.

      fs: nfs: inform the VM about pages being committed or unstable · f919b196
      Mel Gorman authored
      VM page reclaim uses dirty and writeback page states to determine if
      flushers are cleaning pages too slowly and that page reclaim should
      stall waiting on flushers to catch up.  Page state in NFS is a bit more
      complex and a clean page can be unreclaimable due to being unstable
      which is effectively "dirty" from the perspective of the VM from reclaim
      context.  Similarly, if the inode is currently being committed then it's
      similar to being under writeback.
      
      This patch adds a is_dirty_writeback() handled for NFS that checks if a
      pages backing inode is being committed and should be accounted as
      writeback and if a page has private state indicating that it is
      effectively dirty.

      Page reclaim keeps track of dirty and under writeback pages and uses it
      to determine if wait_iff_congested() should stall or if kswapd should
      begin writing back pages.  This fails to account for buffer pages that
      can be under writeback but not PageWriteback which is the case for
      filesystems like ext3 ordered mode.  Furthermore, PageDirty buffer pages
      can have all the buffers clean and writepage does no IO so it should not
      be accounted as congested.
      
      This patch adds an address_space operation that filesystems may
      optionally use to check if a page is really dirty or really under
      writeback.  An implementation is provided for for buffer_heads is added
      and used for block operations and ext3 in ordered mode.  By default the
      page flags are obeyed.
      
      Credit goes to Jan Kara for identifying that the page flags alone are
      not sufficient for ext3 and sanity checking a number of ideas on how the
      problem could be addressed.

      mm: vmscan: treat pages marked for immediate reclaim as zone congestion · d04e8acd
      Mel Gorman authored
      Currently a zone will only be marked congested if the underlying BDI is
      congested but if dirty pages are spread across zones it is possible that
      an individual zone is full of dirty pages without being congested.  The
      impact is that zone gets scanned very quickly potentially reclaiming
      really clean pages.  This patch treats pages marked for immediate
      reclaim as congested for the purposes of marking a zone ZONE_CONGESTED
      and stalling in wait_iff_congested.
