2022-01-15mm/mempolicy: add set_mempolicy_home_node syscallAneesh Kumar K.V1-1/+15
This syscall can be used to set a home node for the MPOL_BIND and MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY memory policy. Users should use this syscall after setting up a memory policy for the specified range as shown below. mbind(p, nr_pages * page_size, MPOL_BIND, new_nodes->maskp, new_nodes->size + 1, 0); sys_set_mempolicy_home_node((unsigned long)p, nr_pages * page_size, home_node, 0); The syscall allows specifying a home node/preferred node from which kernel will fulfill memory allocation requests first. For address range with MPOL_BIND memory policy, if nodemask specifies more than one node, page allocations will come from the node in the nodemask with sufficient free memory that is closest to the home node/preferred node. For MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY if the nodemask specifies more than one node, page allocation will come from the node in the nodemask with sufficient free memory that is closest to the home node/preferred node. If there is not enough memory in all the nodes specified in the nodemask, the allocation will be attempted from the closest numa node to the home node in the system. This helps applications to hint at a memory allocation preference node and fallback to _only_ a set of nodes if the memory is not available on the preferred node. Fallback allocation is attempted from the node which is nearest to the preferred node. This helps applications to have control on memory allocation numa nodes and avoids default fallback to slow memory NUMA nodes. For example a system with NUMA nodes 1,2 and 3 with DRAM memory and 10, 11 and 12 of slow memory new_nodes = numa_bitmask_alloc(nr_nodes); numa_bitmask_setbit(new_nodes, 1); numa_bitmask_setbit(new_nodes, 2); numa_bitmask_setbit(new_nodes, 3); p = mmap(NULL, nr_pages * page_size, protflag, mapflag, -1, 0); mbind(p, nr_pages * page_size, MPOL_BIND, new_nodes->maskp, new_nodes->size + 1, 0); sys_set_mempolicy_home_node(p, nr_pages * page_size, 2, 0); This will allocate from nodes closer to node 2 and will make sure the kernel will only allocate from nodes 1, 2, and 3. Memory will not be allocated from slow memory nodes 10, 11, and 12. This differs from default MPOL_BIND behavior in that with default MPOL_BIND the allocation will be attempted from node closer to the local node. One of the reasons to specify a home node is to allow allocations from cpu less NUMA node and its nearby NUMA nodes. With MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY on the other hand will first try to allocate from the closest node to node 2 from the node list 1, 2 and 3. If those nodes don't have enough memory, kernel will allocate from slow memory node 10, 11 and 12 which ever is closer to node 2.

2022-01-15hugetlb: add hugetlb.*.numa_stat fileMina Almasry2-0/+9
For hugetlb backed jobs/VMs it's critical to understand the numa information for the memory backing these jobs to deliver optimal performance. Currently this technically can be queried from /proc/self/numa_maps, but there are significant issues with that. Namely: 1. Memory can be mapped or unmapped. 2. numa_maps are per process and need to be aggregated across all processes in the cgroup. For shared memory this is more involved as the userspace needs to make sure it doesn't double count shared mappings. 3. I believe querying numa_maps needs to hold the mmap_lock which adds to the contention on this lock. For these reasons I propose simply adding hugetlb.*.numa_stat file, which shows the numa information of the cgroup similarly to memory.numa_stat. On cgroup-v2: cat /sys/fs/cgroup/unified/test/hugetlb.2MB.numa_stat total=2097152 N0=2097152 N1=0 On cgroup-v1: cat /sys/fs/cgroup/hugetlb/test/hugetlb.2MB.numa_stat total=2097152 N0=2097152 N1=0 hierarichal_total=2097152 N0=2097152 N1=0 This patch was tested manually by allocating hugetlb memory and querying the hugetlb.*.numa_stat file of the cgroup and its parents.

2022-01-15mm/pagealloc: sysctl: change watermark_scale_factor max limit to 30%Suren Baghdasaryan1-1/+1
For embedded systems with low total memory, having to run applications with relatively large memory requirements, 10% max limitation for watermark_scale_factor poses an issue of triggering direct reclaim every time such application is started. This results in slow application startup times and bad end-user experience. By increasing watermark_scale_factor max limit we allow vendors more flexibility to choose the right level of kswapd aggressiveness for their device and workload requirements.

2022-01-15memcg: add per-memcg vmalloc statShakeel Butt1-0/+3
The kvmalloc* allocation functions can fallback to vmalloc allocations and more often on long running machines. In addition the kernel does have __GFP_ACCOUNT kvmalloc* calls. So, often on long running machines, the memory.stat does not tell the complete picture which type of memory is charged to the memcg. So add a per-memcg vmalloc stat.

2022-01-15mm/memcg: add oom_group_kill memory eventDan Schatzberg1-0/+3
Our container agent wants to know when a container exits if it was OOM killed or not to report to the user. We use memory.oom.group = 1 to ensure that OOM kills within the container's cgroup kill everything. Existing memory.events are insufficient for knowing if this triggered: 1) Our current approach reads memory.events oom_kill and reports the container was killed if the value is non-zero. This is erroneous in some cases where containers create their children cgroups with memory.oom.group=1 as such OOM kills will get counted against the container cgroup's oom_kill counter despite not actually OOM killing the entire container. 2) Reading memory.events.local will fail to identify OOM kills in leaf cgroups (that don't set memory.oom.group) within the container cgroup. This patch adds a new oom_group_kill event when memory.oom.group triggers to allow userspace to cleanly identify when an entire cgroup is oom killed.

randomization The config RANDOMIZE_SLAB does not exist, the authors probably intended to refer to the config RANDOMIZE_BASE, which provides kernel address-space randomization.

Like x86, some users may want to disable userspace PMU counter altogether. Add a sysctl 'perf_user_access' file to control userspace counter access. The default is '0' which is disabled. Writing '1' enables access. Note that x86 supports globally enabling user access by writing '2' to /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/rdpmc. As there's not existing userspace support to worry about, this shouldn't be necessary for Arm. It could be added later if the need arises.

2021-12-09rcu/nocb: Allow empty "rcu_nocbs" kernel parameterFrederic Weisbecker1-13/+24
Allow the rcu_nocbs kernel parameter to be specified just by itself, without specifying any CPUs. This allows systems administrators to use "rcu_nocbs" to specify that none of the CPUs are to be offloaded at boot time, but than any of them may be offloaded at runtime via cpusets. In contrast, if the "rcu_nocbs" or "nohz_full" kernel parameters are not specified at all, then not only are none of the CPUs offloaded at boot, none of them can be offloaded at runtime, either. While in the area, modernize the description of the "rcuo" kthreads' naming scheme.

2021-12-09rcu-tasks: Use fewer callbacks queues if callback flood endsPaul E. McKenney1-0/+8
By default, when lock contention is encountered, the RCU Tasks flavors of RCU switch to using per-CPU queueing. However, if the callback flood ends, per-CPU queueing continues to be used, which introduces significant additional overhead, especially for callback invocation, which fans out a series of workqueue handlers. This commit therefore switches back to single-queue operation if at the beginning of a grace period there are very few callbacks. The definition of "very few" is set by the rcupdate.rcu_task_collapse_lim module parameter, which defaults to 10. This switch happens in two phases, with the first phase causing future callbacks to be enqueued on CPU 0's queue, but with all queues continuing to be checked for grace periods and callback invocation. The second phase checks to see if an RCU grace period has elapsed and if all remaining RCU-Tasks callbacks are queued on CPU 0. If so, only CPU 0 is checked for future grace periods and callback operation. Of course, the return of contention anywhere during this process will result in returning to per-CPU callback queueing.

2021-12-09rcu-tasks: Use more callback queues if contention encounteredPaul E. McKenney1-0/+8
The rcupdate.rcu_task_enqueue_lim module parameter allows system administrators to tune the number of callback queues used by the RCU Tasks flavors. However if callback storms are infrequent, it would be better to operate with a single queue on a given system unless and until that system actually needed more queues. Systems not needing more queues can then avoid the overhead of checking the extra queues and especially avoid the overhead of fanning workqueue handlers out to all CPUs to invoke callbacks. This commit therefore switches to using all the CPUs' callback queues if call_rcu_tasks_generic() encounters too much lock contention. The amount of lock contention to tolerate defaults to 100 contended lock acquisitions per jiffy, and can be adjusted using the new rcupdate.rcu_task_contend_lim module parameter. Such switching is undertaken only if the rcupdate.rcu_task_enqueue_lim module parameter is negative, which is its default value (-1). This allows savvy systems administrators to set the number of queues to some known good value and to not have to worry about the kernel doing any second guessing.

2021-12-08PM: hibernate: Allow ACPI hardware signature to be honouredDavid Woodhouse1-3/+12
Theoretically, when the hardware signature in FACS changes, the OS is supposed to gracefully decline to attempt to resume from S4: "If the signature has changed, OSPM will not restore the system context and can boot from scratch" In practice, Windows doesn't do this and many laptop vendors do allow the signature to change especially when docking/undocking, so it would be a bad idea to simply comply with the specification by default in the general case. However, there are use cases where we do want the compliant behaviour and we know it's safe. Specifically, when resuming virtual machines where we know the hypervisor has changed sufficiently that resume will fail. We really want to be able to *tell* the guest kernel not to try, so it boots cleanly and doesn't just crash. This patch provides a way to opt in to the spec-compliant behaviour on the command line. A follow-up patch may do this automatically for certain "known good" machines based on a DMI match, or perhaps just for all hypervisor guests since there's no good reason a hypervisor would change the hardware_signature that it exposes to guests *unless* it wants them to obey the ACPI specification.

This commit converts the rcutorture.fwd_progress module parameter from bool to int, so that it specifies the number of callback-flood kthreads. Values less than zero specify one kthread per CPU, however, the number of kthreads executing concurrently is limited to the number of online CPUs. This commit also reverse the order of the need-resched and callback-flood operations to cause the callback flooding to happen more nearly at the same time.
