We add per cpu caches for swap slots that can be allocated and freed quickly without the need to touch the swap info lock. Two separate caches are maintained for swap slots allocated and swap slots returned. This is to allow the swap slots to be returned to the global pool in a batch so they will have a chance to be coaelesced with other slots in a cluster. We do not reuse the slots that are returned right away, as it may increase fragmentation of the slots. The swap allocation cache is protected by a mutex as we may sleep when searching for empty slots in cache. The swap free cache is protected by a spin lock as we cannot sleep in the free path. We refill the swap slots cache when we run out of slots, and we disable the swap slots cache and drain the slots if the global number of slots fall below a low watermark threshold. We re-enable the cache agian when the slots available are above a high watermark.

Currently, the swap slots are allocated one page at a time, causing contention to the swap_info lock protecting the swap partition on every page being swapped. This patch adds new functions get_swap_pages and scan_swap_map_slots to request multiple swap slots at once. This will reduces the lock contention on the swap_info lock. Also scan_swap_map_slots can operate more efficiently as swap slots often occurs in clusters close to each other on a swap device and it is quicker to allocate them together.

The patch is to improve the scalability of the swap out/in via using fine grained locks for the swap cache. In current kernel, one address space will be used for each swap device. And in the common configuration, the number of the swap device is very small (one is typical). This causes the heavy lock contention on the radix tree of the address space if multiple tasks swap out/in concurrently. But in fact, there is no dependency between pages in the swap cache. So that, we can split the one shared address space for each swap device into several address spaces to reduce the lock contention. In the patch, the shared address space is split into 64MB trunks. 64MB is chosen to balance the memory space usage and effect of lock contention reduction. The size of struct address_space on x86_64 architecture is 408B, so with the patch, 6528B more memory will be used for every 1GB swap space on x86_64 architecture. One address space is still shared for the swap entries in the same 64M trunks. To avoid lock contention for the first round of swap space allocation, the order of the swap clusters in the initial free clusters list is changed. The swap space distance between the consecutive swap clusters in the free cluster list is at least 64M. After the first round of allocation, the swap clusters are expected to be freed randomly, so the lock contention should be reduced effectively.

This patch is to reduce the lock contention of swap_info_struct->lock via using a more fine grained lock in swap_cluster_info for some swap operations. swap_info_struct->lock is heavily contended if multiple processes reclaim pages simultaneously. Because there is only one lock for each swap device. While in common configuration, there is only one or several swap devices in the system. The lock protects almost all swap related operations. In fact, many swap operations only access one element of swap_info_struct->swap_map array. And there is no dependency between different elements of swap_info_struct->swap_map. So a fine grained lock can be used to allow parallel access to the different elements of swap_info_struct->swap_map. In this patch, a spinlock is added to swap_cluster_info to protect the elements of swap_info_struct->swap_map in the swap cluster and the fields of swap_cluster_info. This reduced locking contention for swap_info_struct->swap_map access greatly. Because of the added spinlock, the size of swap_cluster_info increases from 4 bytes to 8 bytes on the 64 bit and 32 bit system. This will use additional 4k RAM for every 1G swap space. Because the size of swap_cluster_info is much smaller than the size of the cache line (8 vs 64 on x86_64 architecture), there may be false cache line sharing between spinlocks in swap_cluster_info. To avoid the false sharing in the first round of the swap cluster allocation, the order of the swap clusters in the free clusters list is changed. So that, the swap_cluster_info sharing the same cache line will be placed as far as possible. After the first round of allocation, the order of the clusters in free clusters list is expected to be random. So the false sharing should be not serious. Compared with a previous implementation using bit_spin_lock, the sequential swap out throughput improved about 3.2%. Test was done on a Xeon E5 v3 system. The swap device used is a RAM simulated PMEM (persistent memory) device. To test the sequential swapping out, the test case created 32 processes, which sequentially allocate and write to the anonymous pages until the RAM and part of the swap device is used.

Patch series "mm/swap: Regular page swap optimizations", v5. Times have changed. Coming generation of Solid state Block device latencies are getting down to sub 100 usec, which is within an order of magnitude of DRAM, and their performance is orders of magnitude higher than the single- spindle rotational media we've swapped to historically. This could benefit many usage scenearios. For example cloud providers who overcommit their memory (as VM don't use all the memory provisioned). Having a fast swap will allow them to be more aggressive in memory overcommit and fit more VMs to a platform. In our testing [see footnote], the median latency that the kernel adds to a page fault is 15 usec, which comes quite close to the amount that will be contributed by the underlying I/O devices. The software latency comes mostly from contentions on the locks protecting the radix tree of the swap cache and also the locks protecting the individual swap devices. The lock contentions already consumed 35% of cpu cycles in our test. In the very near future, software latency will become the bottleneck to swap performnace as block device I/O latency gets within the shouting distance of DRAM speed. This patch set, reduced the median page fault latency from 15 usec to 4 usec (375% reduction) for DRAM based pmem block device. This patch (of 9): swap_info_get() is used not only in swap free code path but also in page_swapcount(), etc. So the original kernel message in swap_info_get() is not correct now. Fix it via replacing "swap_free" to "swap_info_get" in the message.

On 32-bit powerpc the ELF PLT sections of binaries (built with --bss-plt, or with a toolchain which defaults to it) look like this: [17] .sbss NOBITS 0002aff8 01aff8 000014 00 WA 0 0 4 [18] .plt NOBITS 0002b00c 01aff8 000084 00 WAX 0 0 4 [19] .bss NOBITS 0002b090 01aff8 0000a4 00 WA 0 0 4 Which results in an ELF load header: Type Offset VirtAddr PhysAddr FileSiz MemSiz Flg Align LOAD 0x019c70 0x00029c70 0x00029c70 0x01388 0x014c4 RWE 0x10000 This is all correct, the load region containing the PLT is marked as executable. Note that the PLT starts at 0002b00c but the file mapping ends at 0002aff8, so the PLT falls in the 0 fill section described by the load header, and after a page boundary. Unfortunately the generic ELF loader ignores the X bit in the load headers when it creates the 0 filled non-file backed mappings. It assumes all of these mappings are RW BSS sections, which is not the case for PPC. gcc/ld has an option (--secure-plt) to not do this, this is said to incur a small performance penalty. Currently, to support 32-bit binaries with PLT in BSS kernel maps *entire brk area* with executable rights for all binaries, even --secure-plt ones. Stop doing that. Teach the ELF loader to check the X bit in the relevant load header and create 0 filled anonymous mappings that are executable if the load header requests that.

To identify that pages of page table are allocated from bootmem allocator, magic number sets to page->lru.next. But page->lru list is initialized in reserve_bootmem_region(). So when calling free_pagetable(), the function cannot find the magic number of pages. And free_pagetable() frees the pages by free_reserved_page() not put_page_bootmem(). But if the pages are allocated from bootmem allocator and used as page table, the pages have private flag. So before freeing the pages, we should clear the private flag by put_page_bootmem(). Before applying the commit 7bfec6f4 ("mm, page_alloc: check multiple page fields with a single branch"), we could find the following visible issue: BUG: Bad page state in process kworker/u1024:1 page:ffffea103cfd8040 count:0 mapcount:0 mappi flags: 0x6fffff80000800(private) page dumped because: PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_FREE flag(s) set bad because of flags: 0x800(private) <snip> Call Trace: [...] dump_stack+0x63/0x87 [...] bad_page+0x114/0x130 [...] free_pages_prepare+0x299/0x2d0 [...] free_hot_cold_page+0x31/0x150 [...] __free_pages+0x25/0x30 [...] free_pagetable+0x6f/0xb4 [...] remove_pagetable+0x379/0x7ff [...] vmemmap_free+0x10/0x20 [...] sparse_remove_one_section+0x149/0x180 [...] __remove_pages+0x2e9/0x4f0 [...] arch_remove_memory+0x63/0xc0 [...] remove_memory+0x8c/0xc0 [...] acpi_memory_device_remove+0x79/0xa5 [...] acpi_bus_trim+0x5a/0x8d [...] acpi_bus_trim+0x38/0x8d [...] acpi_device_hotplug+0x1b7/0x418 [...] acpi_hotplug_work_fn+0x1e/0x29 [...] process_one_work+0x152/0x400 [...] worker_thread+0x125/0x4b0 [...] kthread+0xd8/0xf0 [...] ret_from_fork+0x22/0x40 And the issue still silently occurs. Until freeing the pages of page table allocated from bootmem allocator, the page->freelist is never used. So the patch sets magic number to page->freelist instead of page->lru.next.

If the memblock.reserved is full and can't resize, memblock_reserve() would fail. This doesn't happen in real world now, I observed this during code review. While theoretically, it has the chance to happen. And if it happens, others would think this range of memory is still available and may corrupt the memory. This patch checks the return value and goto "done" after it succeeds.

memblock_is_region_memory() invoke memblock_search() to see whether the base address is in the memory region. If it fails, idx would be -1. Then, it returns 0. If the memblock_search() returns a valid index, it means the base address is guaranteed to be in the range memblock.memory.regions[idx]. Because of this, it is not necessary to check the base again. This patch removes the check on "base".

Without a memory barrier, the following race can occur with a high-order allocation: wakeup_kcompactd(order == 1) kcompactd() [L] waitqueue_active(kcompactd_wait) [S] prepare_to_wait_event(kcompactd_wait) [L] (kcompactd_max_order == 0) [S] kcompactd_max_order = order; schedule() Where the waitqueue_active() check is speculatively re-ordered to before setting the actual condition (max_order), not seeing the threads that's going to block; making us miss a wakeup. There are a couple of options to fix this, including calling wq_has_sleepers() which adds a full barrier, or unconditionally doing the wake_up_interruptible() and serialize on the q->lock. However, to make use of the control dependency, we just need to add L->L guarantees. While this bug is theoretical, there have been other offenders of the lockless waitqueue_active() in the past -- this is also documented in the call itself.

When using a sparse memory model memmap_init_zone() when invoked with the MEMMAP_EARLY context will skip over pages which aren't valid - ie. which aren't in a populated region of the sparse memory map. However if the memory map is extremely sparse then it can spend a long time linearly checking each PFN in a large non-populated region of the memory map & skipping it in turn. When CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP is enabled, we have sufficient information to quickly discover the next valid PFN given an invalid one by searching through the list of memory regions & skipping forwards to the first PFN covered by the memory region to the right of the non-populated region. Implement this in order to speed up memmap_init_zone() for systems with extremely sparse memory maps. James said "I have tested this patch on a virtual model of a Samurai CPU with a sparse memory map. The kernel boot time drops from 109 to 62 seconds.

A "compact_daemon_wake" vmstat exists that represents the number of times kcompactd has woken up. This doesn't represent how much work it actually did, though. It's useful to understand how much compaction work is being done by kcompactd versus other methods such as direct compaction and explicitly triggered per-node (or system) compaction. This adds two new vmstats: "compact_daemon_migrate_scanned" and "compact_daemon_free_scanned" to represent the number of pages kcompactd has scanned as part of its migration scanner and freeing scanner, respectively. These values are still accounted for in the general "compact_migrate_scanned" and "compact_free_scanned" for compatibility. It could be argued that explicitly triggered compaction could also be tracked separately, and that could be added if others find it useful.

Commit 682a3385 ("mm, page_alloc: inline the fast path of the zonelist iterator") changed how next_zones_zonelist() is called, by adding a static inline function to do the fast path. This function adds: if (likely(!nodes && zonelist_zone_idx(z) <= highest_zoneidx)) return z; return __next_zones_zonelist(z, highest_zoneidx, nodes); Where __next_zones_zonelist() is only called when nodes is not NULL or zonelist_zone_idx(z) is less than highest_zoneidx. The original next_zone_zonelist() was converted to __next_zones_zonelist() but it still maintained: if (likely(nodes == NULL)) Which is now actually a very unlikely, as it is only called with nodes equal to NULL when zonelist_zone_idx(z) is greater than highest_zoneidx. Before this commit, this if had this statistic: correct incorrect % Function File Line ------- --------- - -------- ---- ---- 837895 446078 34 next_zones_zonelist mmzone.c 63 After this commit, it has: correct incorrect % Function File Line ------- --------- - -------- ---- ---- 10 173840 99 __next_zones_zonelist mmzone.c 63 Thus, the if statement is now much more unlikely than it ever was as a likely.

mm_vmscan_lru_shrink_inactive will currently report the number of scanned and reclaimed pages. This doesn't give us an idea how the reclaim went except for the overall effectiveness though. Export and show other counters which will tell us why we couldn't reclaim some pages. - nr_dirty, nr_writeback, nr_congested and nr_immediate tells us how many pages are blocked due to IO - nr_activate tells us how many pages were moved to the active list - nr_ref_keep reports how many pages are kept on the LRU due to references (mostly for the file pages which are about to go for another round through the inactive list) - nr_unmap_fail - how many pages failed to unmap All these are rather low level so they might change in future but the tracepoint is already implementation specific so no tools should be depending on its stability.

shrink_page_list returns quite some counters back to its caller. Extract the existing 5 into struct reclaim_stat because this makes the code easier to follow and also allows further counters to be returned. While we are at it, make all of them unsigned rather than unsigned long as we do not really need full 64b for them (we never scan more than SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pages at once). This should reduce some stack space. This patch shouldn't introduce any functional change.

mm_vmscan_lru_isolate shows the number of requested, scanned and taken pages. This is mostly OK but on 32b systems the number of scanned pages is quite misleading because it includes both the scanned and skipped pages. Moreover the skipped part is scaled based on the number of taken pages. Let's report the exact numbers without any additional logic and add the number of skipped pages. This should make the reported data much more easier to interpret.

Our reclaim process has several tracepoints to tell us more about how things are progressing. We are, however, missing a tracepoint to track active list aging. Introduce mm_vmscan_lru_shrink_active which reports the number of - nr_taken is number of isolated pages from the active list - nr_referenced pages which tells us that we are hitting referenced pages which are deactivated. If this is a large part of the reported nr_deactivated pages then we might be hitting into the active list too early because they might be still part of the working set. This might help to debug performance issues. - nr_active pages which tells us how many pages are kept on the active list - mostly exec file backed pages. A high number can indicate that we might be trashing on executables.

Patch series "vm, vmscan: enahance vmscan tracepoints", v2. While debugging [2] I've realized that there is some room for improvements in the tracepoints set we offer currently. I had hard times to make any conclusion from the existing ones. The resulting problem turned out to be active list aging [3] and we are missing at least two tracepoints to debug such a problem. Some existing tracepoints could export more information to see _why_ the reclaim progress cannot be made not only _how much_ we could reclaim. The later could be seen quite reasonably from the vmstat counters already. It can be argued that we are showing too many implementation details in those tracepoints but I consider them way too lowlevel already to be usable by any kernel independent userspace. I would be _really_ surprised if anything but debugging tools have used them. Any feedback is highly appreciated.

pmd_trans_unstable does an atomic read on the pmd so it doesn't require the pmd_lock for the same check. This also removes the special assumption that the mmap_sem is hold for writing if prot_numa is not set. userfaultfd will hold the mmap_sem only for reading in change_pte_range like prot_numa, but it will not set prot_numa.

The test verifies that anonymous shared mapping can be used with userfault using the existing testing method. The shared memory area is allocated using mmap(..., MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS, ...) and released using madvise(MADV_REMOVE) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161216144821.5183-35-aarcange@redhat.comSigned-off-by: Mike Rapoport <rppt@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <dgilbert@redhat.com> Cc: Hillf Danton <hillf.zj@alibaba-inc.com> Cc: Michael Rapoport <RAPOPORT@il.ibm.com> Cc: Mike Kravetz <mike.kravetz@oracle.com> Cc: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@parallels.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

When userfaultfd hugetlbfs support was originally added, it followed the pattern of anon mappings and did not support any vmas marked VM_SHARED. As such, support was only added for private mappings. Remove this limitation and support shared mappings. The primary functional change required is adding pages to the page cache. More subtle changes are required for huge page reservation handling in error paths. A lengthy comment in the code describes the reservation handling.
