This patch changes parameter of valid_io_request for common usage. The purpose of valid_io_request() is to determine if bio request is valid or not. This patch use I/O start address and size instead of a BIO parameter for common usage. Signed-off-by:

Recently rw_page block device operation has been added. This patchset implements rw_page operation for zram block device and does some clean-up. This patch (of 3): Remove an unnecessary parameter(bio) from zram_bvec_rw() and zram_bvec_read(). zram_bvec_read() doesn't use a bio parameter, so remove it. zram_bvec_rw() calls a read/write operation not using bio, so a rw parameter replaces a bio parameter.

zsmalloc has many size_classes to reduce fragmentation and they are in 16 bytes unit, for example, 16, 32, 48, etc., if PAGE_SIZE is 4096. And, zsmalloc has constraint that each zspage has 4 pages at maximum. In this situation, we can see interesting aspect. Let's think about size_class for 1488, 1472, ..., 1376. To prevent external fragmentation, they uses 4 pages per zspage and so all they can contain 11 objects at maximum. 16384 (4096 * 4) = 1488 * 11 + remains 16384 (4096 * 4) = 1472 * 11 + remains 16384 (4096 * 4) = ... 16384 (4096 * 4) = 1376 * 11 + remains It means that they have same characteristics and classification between them isn't needed. If we use one size_class for them, we can reduce fragementation and save some memory since both the 1488 and 1472 sized classes can only fit 11 objects into 4 pages, and an object that's 1472 bytes can fit into an object that's 1488 bytes, merging these classes to always use objects that are 1488 bytes will reduce the total number of size classes. And reducing the total number of size classes reduces overall fragmentation, because a wider range of compressed pages can fit into a single size class, leaving less unused objects in each size class. For this purpose, this patch implement size_class merging. If there is size_class that have same pages_per_zspage and same number of objects per zspage with previous size_class, we don't create new size_class. Instead, we use previous, same characteristic size_class. With this way, above example sizes (1488, 1472, ..., 1376) use just one size_class so we can get much more memory utilization.

Suppose task @t that belongs to a memory cgroup @memcg is going to allocate an object from a kmem cache @c. The copy of @c corresponding to @memcg, @mc, is empty. Then if kmem_cache_alloc races with the memory cgroup destruction we can access the memory cgroup's copy of the cache after it was destroyed: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- [ current=@t @mc->memcg_params->nr_pages=0 ] kmem_cache_alloc(@c): call memcg_kmem_get_cache(@c); proceed to allocation from @mc: alloc a page for @mc: ... move @t from @memcg destroy @memcg: mem_cgroup_css_offline(@memcg): memcg_unregister_all_caches(@memcg): kmem_cache_destroy(@mc) add page to @mc We could fix this issue by taking a reference to a per-memcg cache, but that would require adding a per-cpu reference counter to per-memcg caches, which would look cumbersome. Instead, let's take a reference to a memory cgroup, which already has a per-cpu reference counter, in the beginning of kmem_cache_alloc to be dropped in the end, and move per memcg caches destruction from css offline to css free. As a side effect, per-memcg caches will be destroyed not one by one, but all at once when the last page accounted to the memory cgroup is freed. This doesn't sound as a high price for code readability though. Note, this patch does add some overhead to the kmem_cache_alloc hot path, but it is pretty negligible - it's just a function call plus a per cpu counter decrement, which is comparable to what we already have in memcg_kmem_get_cache. Besides, it's only relevant if there are memory cgroups with kmem accounting enabled. I don't think we can find a way to handle this race w/o it, because alloc_page called from kmem_cache_alloc may sleep so we can't flush all pending kmallocs w/o reference counting.

A random seek IO benchmark appeared to regress because of a change to readahead but the real problem was the benchmark. To ensure the IO request accesssed disk, it used fadvise(FADV_DONTNEED) on a block boundary (512K) but the hint is ignored by the kernel. This is correct but not necessarily obvious behaviour. As much as I dislike comment patches, the explanation for this behaviour predates current git history. Clarify why it behaves like this in case someone "fixes" fadvise or readahead for the wrong reasons. Signed-off-by:

oom_kill.c assumes that PF_EXITING task should exit and free the memory soon. This is wrong in many ways and one important case is the coredump. A task can sleep in exit_mm() "forever" while the coredumping sub-thread can need more memory. Change the PF_EXITING checks to take SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP into account, we add the new trivial helper for that. Note: this is only the first step, this patch doesn't try to solve other problems. The SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP check is obviously racy, a task can participate in coredump after it was already observed in PF_EXITING state, so TIF_MEMDIE (which also blocks oom-killer) still can be wrongly set. fatal_signal_pending() can be true because of SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP so out_of_memory() and mem_cgroup_out_of_memory() shouldn't blindly trust it. And even the name/usage of the new helper is confusing, an exiting thread can only free its ->mm if it is the only/last task in thread group. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: add comment] Signed-off-by:

Page migration's __unmap_and_move(), and rmap's try_to_unmap(), were created for use on pages almost certainly mapped into userspace. But nowadays compaction often applies them to unmapped page cache pages: which may exacerbate contention on i_mmap_rwsem quite unnecessarily, since try_to_unmap_file() makes no preliminary page_mapped() check. Now check page_mapped() in __unmap_and_move(); and avoid repeating the same overhead in rmap_walk_file() - don't remove_migration_ptes() when we never inserted any. (The PageAnon(page) comment blocks now look even sillier than before, but clean that up on some other occasion. And note in passing that try_to_unmap_one() does not use a migration entry when PageSwapCache, so remove_migration_ptes() will then not update that swap entry to newpage pte: not a big deal, but something else to clean up later.) Davidlohr remarked in "mm,fs: introduce helpers around the i_mmap_mutex" conversion to i_mmap_rwsem, that "The biggest winner of these changes is migration": a part of the reason might be all of that unnecessary taking of i_mmap_mutex in page migration; and it's rather a shame that I didn't get around to sending this patch in before his - this one is much less useful after Davidlohr's conversion to rwsem, but still good.

Since commit 058504ed ("fs/seq_file: fallback to vmalloc allocation"), seq_buf_alloc() falls back to vmalloc() when the kmalloc() for contiguous memory fails. This was done to address order-4 slab allocations for reading /proc/stat on large machines and noticed because PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER < 4, so there is no infinite loop in the page allocator when allocating new slab for such high-order allocations. Contiguous memory isn't necessary for caller of seq_buf_alloc(), however. Other GFP_KERNEL high-order allocations that are <= PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER will simply loop forever in the page allocator and oom kill processes as a result. We don't want to kill processes so that we can allocate contiguous memory in situations when contiguous memory isn't necessary. This patch does the kmalloc() allocation with __GFP_NORETRY for high-order allocations. This still utilizes memory compaction and direct reclaim in the allocation path, the only difference is that it will fail immediately instead of oom kill processes when out of memory.

The slab shrinkers are currently invoked from the zonelist walkers in kswapd, direct reclaim, and zone reclaim, all of which roughly gauge the eligible LRU pages and assemble a nodemask to pass to NUMA-aware shrinkers, which then again have to walk over the nodemask. This is redundant code, extra runtime work, and fairly inaccurate when it comes to the estimation of actually scannable LRU pages. The code duplication will only get worse when making the shrinkers cgroup-aware and requiring them to have out-of-band cgroup hierarchy walks as well. Instead, invoke the shrinkers from shrink_zone(), which is where all reclaimers end up, to avoid this duplication. Take the count for eligible LRU pages out of get_scan_count(), which considers many more factors than just the availability of swap space, like zone_reclaimable_pages() currently does. Accumulate the number over all visited lruvecs to get the per-zone value. Some nodes have multiple zones due to memory addressing restrictions. To avoid putting too much pressure on the shrinkers, only invoke them once for each such node, using the class zone of the allocation as the pivot zone. For now, this integrates the slab shrinking better into the reclaim logic and gets rid of duplicative invocations from kswapd, direct reclaim, and zone reclaim. It also prepares for cgroup-awareness, allowing memcg-capable shrinkers to be added at the lruvec level without much duplication of both code and runtime work. This changes kswapd behavior, which used to invoke the shrinkers for each zone, but with scan ratios gathered from the entire node, resulting in meaningless pressure quantities on multi-zone nodes. Zone reclaim behavior also changes. It used to shrink slabs until the same amount of pages were shrunk as were reclaimed from the LRUs. Now it merely invokes the shrinkers once with the zone's scan ratio, which makes the shrinkers go easier on caches that implement aging and would prefer feeding back pressure from recently used slab objects to unused LRU pages.

Joonsoo Kim authored
Extended memory to store page owner information is initialized some time later than that page allocator starts. Until initialization, many pages can be allocated and they have no owner information. This make debugging using page owner harder, so some fixup will be helpful. This patch fixes up this situation by setting fake owner information immediately after page extension is initialized. Information doesn't tell the right owner, but, at least, it can tell whether page is allocated or not, more correctly. On my testing, this patch catches 13343 early allocated pages, although they are mostly allocated from page extension feature. Anyway, after then, there is no page left that it is allocated and has no page owner flag. Signed-off-by:

This is the page owner tracking code which is introduced so far ago. It is resident on Andrew's tree, though, nobody tried to upstream so it remain as is. Our company uses this feature actively to debug memory leak or to find a memory hogger so I decide to upstream this feature. This functionality help us to know who allocates the page. When allocating a page, we store some information about allocation in extra memory. Later, if we need to know status of all pages, we can get and analyze it from this stored information. In previous version of this feature, extra memory is statically defined in struct page, but, in this version, extra memory is allocated outside of struct page. It enables us to turn on/off this feature at boottime without considerable memory waste. Although we already have tracepoint for tracing page allocation/free, using it to analyze page owner is rather complex. We need to enlarge the trace buffer for preventing overlapping until userspace program launched. And, launched program continually dump out the trace buffer for later analysis and it would change system behaviour with more possibility rather than just keeping it in memory, so bad for debug. Moreover, we can use page_owner feature further for various purposes. For example, we can use it for fragmentation statistics implemented in this patch. And, I also plan to implement some CMA failure debugging feature using this interface. I'd like to give the credit for all developers contributed this feature, but, it's not easy because I don't know exact history. Sorry about that.

Now, we have prepared to avoid using debug-pagealloc in boottime. So introduce new kernel-parameter to disable debug-pagealloc in boottime, and makes related functions to be disabled in this case. Only non-intuitive part is change of guard page functions. Because guard page is effective only if debug-pagealloc is enabled, turning off according to debug-pagealloc is reasonable thing to do.

Until now, debug-pagealloc needs extra flags in struct page, so we need to recompile whole source code when we decide to use it. This is really painful, because it takes some time to recompile and sometimes rebuild is not possible due to third party module depending on struct page. So, we can't use this good feature in many cases. Now, we have the page extension feature that allows us to insert extra flags to outside of struct page. This gets rid of third party module issue mentioned above. And, this allows us to determine if we need extra memory for this page extension in boottime. With these property, we can avoid using debug-pagealloc in boottime with low computational overhead in the kernel built with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC. This will help our development process greatly. This patch is the preparation step to achive above goal. debug-pagealloc originally uses extra field of struct page, but, after this patch, it will use field of struct page_ext. Because memory for page_ext is allocated later than initialization of page allocator in CONFIG_SPARSEMEM, we should disable debug-pagealloc feature temporarily until initialization of page_ext. This patch implements this. Signed-off-by:

When we debug something, we'd like to insert some information to every page. For this purpose, we sometimes modify struct page itself. But, this has drawbacks. First, it requires re-compile. This makes us hesitate to use the powerful debug feature so development process is slowed down. And, second, sometimes it is impossible to rebuild the kernel due to third party module dependency. At third, system behaviour would be largely different after re-compile, because it changes size of struct page greatly and this structure is accessed by every part of kernel. Keeping this as it is would be better to reproduce errornous situation. This feature is intended to overcome above mentioned problems. This feature allocates memory for extended data per page in certain place rather than the struct page itself. This memory can be accessed by the accessor functions provided by this code. During the boot process, it checks whether allocation of huge chunk of memory is needed or not. If not, it avoids allocating memory at all. With this advantage, we can include this feature into the kernel in default and can avoid rebuild and solve related problems. Until now, memcg uses this technique. But, now, memcg decides to embed their variable to struct page itself and it's code to extend struct page has been removed. I'd like to use this code to develop debug feature, so this patch resurrect it. To help these things to work well, this patch introduces two callbacks for clients. One is the need callback which is mandatory if user wants to avoid useless memory allocation at boot-time. The other is optional, init callback, which is used to do proper initialization after memory is allocated. Detailed explanation about purpose of these functions is in code comment. Please refer it. Others are completely same with previous extension code in memcg. Signed-off-by:

This could be useful for debug in the future if we want to track major/minor faults more closely, and also avoids the put_page trick we used with gup. In order to do this, we also track the task struct in the PASID state structure.

__memcg_kmem_get_cache can recurse if it calls kmalloc (which it does if the cgroup's kmem cache doesn't exist), because kmalloc may call __memcg_kmem_get_cache internally again. To avoid the recursion, we use the task_struct->memcg_kmem_skip_account flag. However, there's no need checking the flag in memcg_kmem_newpage_charge, because there's no way how this function could result in recursion, if called from memcg_kmem_get_cache.

This patch adds hwpoison page handle, consider hwpoison page incore as same as migration. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Signed-off-by:

Call page_to_pgoff() to get the page offset once we are sure we actually need it, and any very obvious initial function checks have passed. Trivial micro-optimization, and potentially save some cycles. Signed-off-by:

Page guard is used by debug-pagealloc feature. Currently, it is open-coded, but, I think that more abstraction of it makes core page allocator code more readable. There is no functional difference. Signed-off-by:

There is a lot of duplication in the rubric around actually setting or clearing a mem region flag. Create a new helper function to do this and reduce each of memblock_mark_hotplug() and memblock_clear_hotplug() to a single line. This will be useful if someone were to add a new mem region flag - which I hope to be doing some day soon. But it looks like a plausible cleanup even without that - so I'd like to get it out of the way now. Signed-off-by:
