2016-07-29mm, vmscan: move lru_lock to the nodeMel Gorman10-62/+62
Node-based reclaim requires node-based LRUs and locking. This is a preparation patch that just moves the lru_lock to the node so later patches are easier to review. It is a mechanical change but note this patch makes contention worse because the LRU lock is hotter and direct reclaim and kswapd can contend on the same lock even when reclaiming from different zones.

2016-07-29mm, vmstat: add infrastructure for per-node vmstatsMel Gorman3-29/+285
Patchset: "Move LRU page reclaim from zones to nodes v9" This series moves LRUs from the zones to the node. While this is a current rebase, the test results were based on mmotm as of June 23rd. Conceptually, this series is simple but there are a lot of details. Some of the broad motivations for this are; 1. The residency of a page partially depends on what zone the page was allocated from. This is partially combatted by the fair zone allocation policy but that is a partial solution that introduces overhead in the page allocator paths. 2. Currently, reclaim on node 0 behaves slightly different to node 1. For example, direct reclaim scans in zonelist order and reclaims even if the zone is over the high watermark regardless of the age of pages in that LRU. Kswapd on the other hand starts reclaim on the highest unbalanced zone. A difference in distribution of file/anon pages due to when they were allocated results can result in a difference in again. While the fair zone allocation policy mitigates some of the problems here, the page reclaim results on a multi-zone node will always be different to a single-zone node. it was scheduled on as a result. 3. kswapd and the page allocator scan zones in the opposite order to avoid interfering with each other but it's sensitive to timing. This mitigates the page allocator using pages that were allocated very recently in the ideal case but it's sensitive to timing. When kswapd is allocating from lower zones then it's great but during the rebalancing of the highest zone, the page allocator and kswapd interfere with each other. It's worse if the highest zone is small and difficult to balance. 4. slab shrinkers are node-based which makes it harder to identify the exact relationship between slab reclaim and LRU reclaim. The reason we have zone-based reclaim is that we used to have large highmem zones in common configurations and it was necessary to quickly find ZONE_NORMAL pages for reclaim. Today, this is much less of a concern as machines with lots of memory will (or should) use 64-bit kernels. Combinations of 32-bit hardware and 64-bit hardware are rare. Machines that do use highmem should have relatively low highmem:lowmem ratios than we worried about in the past. Conceptually, moving to node LRUs should be easier to understand. The page allocator plays fewer tricks to game reclaim and reclaim behaves similarly on all nodes. The series has been tested on a 16 core UMA machine and a 2-socket 48 core NUMA machine. The UMA results are presented in most cases as the NUMA machine behaved similarly. pagealloc --------- This is a microbenchmark that shows the benefit of removing the fair zone allocation policy. It was tested uip to order-4 but only orders 0 and 1 are shown as the other orders were comparable. 4.7.0-rc4 4.7.0-rc4 mmotm-20160623 nodelru-v9 Min total-odr0-1 490.00 ( 0.00%) 457.00 ( 6.73%) Min total-odr0-2 347.00 ( 0.00%) 329.00 ( 5.19%) Min total-odr0-4 288.00 ( 0.00%) 273.00 ( 5.21%) Min total-odr0-8 251.00 ( 0.00%) 239.00 ( 4.78%) Min total-odr0-16 234.00 ( 0.00%) 222.00 ( 5.13%) Min total-odr0-32 223.00 ( 0.00%) 211.00 ( 5.38%) Min total-odr0-64 217.00 ( 0.00%) 208.00 ( 4.15%) Min total-odr0-128 214.00 ( 0.00%) 204.00 ( 4.67%) Min total-odr0-256 250.00 ( 0.00%) 230.00 ( 8.00%) Min total-odr0-512 271.00 ( 0.00%) 269.00 ( 0.74%) Min total-odr0-1024 291.00 ( 0.00%) 282.00 ( 3.09%) Min total-odr0-2048 303.00 ( 0.00%) 296.00 ( 2.31%) Min total-odr0-4096 311.00 ( 0.00%) 309.00 ( 0.64%) Min total-odr0-8192 316.00 ( 0.00%) 314.00 ( 0.63%) Min total-odr0-16384 317.00 ( 0.00%) 315.00 ( 0.63%) Min total-odr1-1 742.00 ( 0.00%) 712.00 ( 4.04%) Min total-odr1-2 562.00 ( 0.00%) 530.00 ( 5.69%) Min total-odr1-4 457.00 ( 0.00%) 433.00 ( 5.25%) Min total-odr1-8 411.00 ( 0.00%) 381.00 ( 7.30%) Min total-odr1-16 381.00 ( 0.00%) 356.00 ( 6.56%) Min total-odr1-32 372.00 ( 0.00%) 346.00 ( 6.99%) Min total-odr1-64 372.00 ( 0.00%) 343.00 ( 7.80%) Min total-odr1-128 375.00 ( 0.00%) 351.00 ( 6.40%) Min total-odr1-256 379.00 ( 0.00%) 351.00 ( 7.39%) Min total-odr1-512 385.00 ( 0.00%) 355.00 ( 7.79%) Min total-odr1-1024 386.00 ( 0.00%) 358.00 ( 7.25%) Min total-odr1-2048 390.00 ( 0.00%) 362.00 ( 7.18%) Min total-odr1-4096 390.00 ( 0.00%) 362.00 ( 7.18%) Min total-odr1-8192 388.00 ( 0.00%) 363.00 ( 6.44%) This shows a steady improvement throughout.

There was also comparable slab scanning activity and direct reclaim was avoided in both cases. There appears to be a large difference in numbers of inodes reclaimed but the workload has few active inodes and is likely a timing artifact. stutter ------- stutter simulates a simple workload.

It's also worth noting that no page writes were issued from reclaim context. This series is not without its hazards. There are at least three areas that I'm concerned with even though I could not reproduce any problems in that area. 1. Reclaim/compaction is going to be affected because the amount of reclaim is no longer targetted at a specific zone. Compaction works on a per-zone basis so there is no guarantee that reclaiming a few THP's worth page pages will have a positive impact on compaction success rates. 2. The Slab/LRU reclaim ratio is affected because the frequency the shrinkers are called is now different. This may or may not be a problem but if it is, it'll be because shrinkers are not called enough and some balancing is required. 3. The anon/file reclaim ratio may be affected. Pages about to be dirtied are distributed between zones and the fair zone allocation policy used to do something very similar for anon. The distribution is now different but not necessarily in any way that matters but it's still worth bearing in mind. VM statistic counters for reclaim decisions are zone-based. If the kernel is to reclaim on a per-node basis then we need to track per-node statistics but there is no infrastructure for that. The most notable change is that the old node_page_state is renamed to sum_zone_node_page_state. The new node_page_state takes a pglist_data and uses per-node stats but none exist yet. There is some renaming such as vm_stat to vm_zone_stat and the addition of vm_node_stat and the renaming of mod_state to mod_zone_state. Otherwise, this is mostly a mechanical patch with no functional change. There is a lot of similarity between the node and zone helpers which is unfortunate but there was no obvious way of reusing the code and maintaining type safety.

2016-07-29mm: fix vm-scalability regression in cgroup-aware workingset codeJohannes Weiner2-46/+6
Commit 23047a96d7cf ("mm: workingset: per-cgroup cache thrash detection") added a page->mem_cgroup lookup to the cache eviction, refault, and activation paths, as well as locking to the activation path, and the vm-scalability tests showed a regression of -23%. While the test in question is an artificial worst-case scenario that doesn't occur in real workloads - reading two sparse files in parallel at full CPU speed just to hammer the LRU paths - there is still some optimizations that can be done in those paths. Inline the lookup functions to eliminate calls. Also, page->mem_cgroup doesn't need to be stabilized when counting an activation; we merely need to hold the RCU lock to prevent the memcg from being freed. This cuts down on overhead quite a bit: 23047a96d7cfcfca 063f6715e77a7be5770d6081fe ---------------- -------------------------- %stddev %change %stddev \ | \ 21621405 +- 0% +11.3% 24069657 +- 2% vm-scalability.throughput [linux@roeck-us.net: drop unnecessary include file] [hannes@cmpxchg.org: add WARN_ON_ONCE()s] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160707194024.GA26580@cmpxchg.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160624175101.GA3024@cmpxchg.org Reported-by: Ye Xiaolong <xiaolong.ye@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Vladimir Davydov <vdavydov@virtuozzo.com> Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2016-07-29mm, oom: tighten task_will_free_mem() lockingMichal Hocko1-26/+15
"mm, oom: fortify task_will_free_mem" has dropped task_lock around task_will_free_mem in oom_kill_process bacause it assumed that a potential race when the selected task exits will not be a problem as the oom_reaper will call exit_oom_victim. Tetsuo was objecting that nommu doesn't have oom_reaper so the race would be still possible. The code would be racy and lockup prone theoretically in other aspects without the oom reaper anyway so I didn't considered this a big deal. But it seems that further changes I am planning in this area will benefit from stable task->mm in this path as well. So let's drop find_lock_task_mm from task_will_free_mem and call it from under task_lock as we did previously. Just pull the task->mm != NULL check inside the function.

2016-07-29mm, oom: hide mm which is shared with kthread or global initMichal Hocko1-4/+21
The only case where the oom_reaper is not triggered for the oom victim is when it shares the memory with a kernel thread (aka use_mm) or with the global init. After "mm, oom: skip vforked tasks from being selected" the victim cannot be a vforked task of the global init so we are left with clone(CLONE_VM) (without CLONE_SIGHAND). use_mm() users are quite rare as well. In order to help forward progress for the OOM killer, make sure that this really rare case will not get in the way - we do this by hiding the mm from the oom killer by setting MMF_OOM_REAPED flag for it. oom_scan_process_thread will ignore any TIF_MEMDIE task if it has MMF_OOM_REAPED flag set to catch these oom victims. After this patch we should guarantee forward progress for the OOM killer even when the selected victim is sharing memory with a kernel thread or global init as long as the victims mm is still alive.

2016-07-29mm, oom_reaper: do not attempt to reap a task more than twiceMichal Hocko1-0/+19
oom_reaper relies on the mmap_sem for read to do its job. Many places which might block readers have been converted to use down_write_killable and that has reduced chances of the contention a lot. Some paths where the mmap_sem is held for write can take other locks and they might either be not prepared to fail due to fatal signal pending or too impractical to be changed. This patch introduces MMF_OOM_NOT_REAPABLE flag which gets set after the first attempt to reap a task's mm fails. If the flag is present after the failure then we set MMF_OOM_REAPED to hide this mm from the oom killer completely so it can go and chose another victim. As a result a risk of OOM deadlock when the oom victim would be blocked indefinetly and so the oom killer cannot make any progress should be mitigated considerably while we still try really hard to perform all reclaim attempts and stay predictable in the behavior.

2016-07-29mm, oom: fortify task_will_free_mem()Michal Hocko2-55/+82
task_will_free_mem is rather weak. It doesn't really tell whether the task has chance to drop its mm. 98748bd72200 ("oom: consider multi-threaded tasks in task_will_free_mem") made a first step into making it more robust for multi-threaded applications so now we know that the whole process is going down and probably drop the mm. This patch builds on top for more complex scenarios where mm is shared between different processes - CLONE_VM without CLONE_SIGHAND, or in kernel use_mm(). Make sure that all processes sharing the mm are killed or exiting. This will allow us to replace try_oom_reaper by wake_oom_reaper because task_will_free_mem implies the task is reapable now. Therefore all paths which bypass the oom killer are now reapable and so they shouldn't lock up the oom killer.

2016-07-29mm, oom: kill all tasks sharing the mmMichal Hocko1-2/+1
Currently oom_kill_process skips both the oom reaper and SIG_KILL if a process sharing the same mm is unkillable via OOM_ADJUST_MIN. After "mm, oom_adj: make sure processes sharing mm have same view of oom_score_adj" all such processes are sharing the same value so we shouldn't see such a task at all (oom_badness would rule them out). We can still encounter oom disabled vforked task which has to be killed as well if we want to have other tasks sharing the mm reapable because it can access the memory before doing exec. Killing such a task should be acceptable because it is highly unlikely it has done anything useful because it cannot modify any memory before it calls exec. An alternative would be to keep the task alive and skip the oom reaper and risk all the weird corner cases where the OOM killer cannot make forward progress because the oom victim hung somewhere on the way to exit.

2016-07-29mm, oom: skip vforked tasks from being selectedMichal Hocko1-2/+4
vforked tasks are not really sitting on any memory. They are sharing the mm with parent until they exec into a new code. Until then it is just pinning the address space. OOM killer will kill the vforked task along with its parent but we still can end up selecting vforked task when the parent wouldn't be selected. E.g. init doing vfork to launch a task or vforked being a child of oom unkillable task with an updated oom_score_adj to be killable. Add a new helper to check whether a task is in the vfork sharing memory with its parent and use it in oom_badness to skip over these tasks.

2016-07-29mm, oom_adj: make sure processes sharing mm have same view of oom_score_adjMichal Hocko1-1/+1
oom_score_adj is shared for the thread groups (via struct signal) but this is not sufficient to cover processes sharing mm (CLONE_VM without CLONE_SIGHAND) and so we can easily end up in a situation when some processes update their oom_score_adj and confuse the oom killer. In the worst case some of those processes might hide from the oom killer altogether via OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MIN while others are eligible. OOM killer would then pick up those eligible but won't be allowed to kill others sharing the same mm so the mm wouldn't release the mm and so the memory. It would be ideal to have the oom_score_adj per mm_struct because that is the natural entity OOM killer considers. But this will not work because some programs are doing vfork() set_oom_adj() exec() We can achieve the same though. oom_score_adj write handler can set the oom_score_adj for all processes sharing the same mm if the task is not in the middle of vfork. As a result all the processes will share the same oom_score_adj. The current implementation is rather pessimistic and checks all the existing processes by default if there is more than 1 holder of the mm but we do not have any reliable way to check for external users yet.

Even if user asked to allocate huge pages always (huge=always), we should be able to free up some memory by splitting pages which are partly byound i_size if memory presure comes or once we hit limit on filesystem size (-o size=). In order to do this we maintain per-superblock list of inodes, which potentially have huge pages on the border of file size. Per-fs shrinker can reclaim memory by splitting such pages. If we hit -ENOSPC during shmem_getpage_gfp(), we try to split a page to free up space on the filesystem and retry allocation if it succeed.

2016-07-27khugepaged: add support of collapse for tmpfs/shmem pagesKirill A. Shutemov2-16/+475
This patch extends khugepaged to support collapse of tmpfs/shmem pages. We share fair amount of infrastructure with anon-THP collapse. Few design points: - First we are looking for VMA which can be suitable for mapping huge page; - If the VMA maps shmem file, the rest scan/collapse operations operates on page cache, not on page tables as in anon VMA case. - khugepaged_scan_shmem() finds a range which is suitable for huge page. The scan is lockless and shouldn't disturb system too much. - once the candidate for collapse is found, collapse_shmem() attempts to create a huge page: + scan over radix tree, making the range point to new huge page; + new huge page is not-uptodate, locked and freezed (refcount is 0), so nobody can touch them until we say so. + we swap in pages during the scan. khugepaged_scan_shmem() filters out ranges with more than khugepaged_max_ptes_swap swapped out pages. It's HPAGE_PMD_NR/8 by default. + old pages are isolated, unmapped and put to local list in case to be restored back if collapse failed. - if collapse succeed, we retract pte page tables from VMAs where huge pages mapping is possible. The huge page will be mapped as PMD on next minor fault into the range. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1466021202-61880-35-git-send-email-kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2016-07-27shmem: add huge pages supportKirill A. Shutemov7-70/+326
Here's basic implementation of huge pages support for shmem/tmpfs. It's all pretty streight-forward: - shmem_getpage() allcoates huge page if it can and try to inserd into radix tree with shmem_add_to_page_cache(); - shmem_add_to_page_cache() puts the page onto radix-tree if there's space for it; - shmem_undo_range() removes huge pages, if it fully within range. Partial truncate of huge pages zero out this part of THP. This have visible effect on fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE) behaviour. As we don't really create hole in this case, lseek(SEEK_HOLE) may have inconsistent results depending what pages happened to be allocated. - no need to change shmem_fault: core-mm will map an compound page as huge if VMA is suitable; Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1466021202-61880-30-git-send-email-kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2016-07-27shmem: get_unmapped_area align huge pageHugh Dickins2-2/+112
Provide a shmem_get_unmapped_area method in file_operations, called at mmap time to decide the mapping address. It could be conditional on CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE, but save #ifdefs in other places by making it unconditional. shmem_get_unmapped_area() first calls the usual mm->get_unmapped_area (which we treat as a black box, highly dependent on architecture and config and executable layout). Lots of conditions, and in most cases it just goes with the address that chose; but when our huge stars are rightly aligned, yet that did not provide a suitable address, go back to ask for a larger arena, within which to align the mapping suitably. There have to be some direct calls to shmem_get_unmapped_area(), not via the file_operations: because of the way shmem_zero_setup() is called to create a shmem object late in the mmap sequence, when MAP_SHARED is requested with MAP_ANONYMOUS or /dev/zero. Though this only matters when /proc/sys/vm/shmem_huge has been set.

2016-07-27shmem: prepare huge= mount option and sysfs knobKirill A. Shutemov2-0/+164
This patch adds new mount option "huge=". It can have following values: - "always": Attempt to allocate huge pages every time we need a new page; - "never": Do not allocate huge pages; - "within_size": Only allocate huge page if it will be fully within i_size. Also respect fadvise()/madvise() hints; - "advise: Only allocate huge pages if requested with fadvise()/madvise(); Default is "never" for now. "mount -o remount,huge= /mountpoint" works fine after mount: remounting huge=never will not attempt to break up huge pages at all, just stop more from being allocated. No new config option: put this under CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE, which is the appropriate option to protect those who don't want the new bloat, and with which we shall share some pmd code. Prohibit the option when !CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE, just as mpol is invalid without CONFIG_NUMA (was hidden in mpol_parse_str(): make it explicit). Allow enabling THP only if the machine has_transparent_hugepage(). But what about Shmem with no user-visible mount? SysV SHM, memfds, shared anonymous mmaps (of /dev/zero or MAP_ANONYMOUS), GPU drivers' DRM objects, Ashmem. Though unlikely to suit all usages, provide sysfs knob /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled to experiment with huge on those. And allow shmem_enabled two further values: - "deny": For use in emergencies, to force the huge option off from all mounts; - "force": Force the huge option on for all - very useful for testing; Based on patch by Hugh Dickins.

We rely on PageDoubleMap() under lock_page() to check if the the page may be PTE mapped. PG_double_map is set by page_add_file_rmap() when the page mapped with PTEs.

2016-07-27thp: file pages support for split_huge_page()Kirill A. Shutemov2-45/+117
Basic scheme is the same as for anon THP. Main differences: - File pages are on radix-tree, so we have head->_count offset by HPAGE_PMD_NR. The count got distributed to small pages during split. - mapping->tree_lock prevents non-lockless access to pages under split over radix-tree; - Lockless access is prevented by setting the head->_count to 0 during split; - After split, some pages can be beyond i_size. We drop them from radix-tree. - We don't setup migration entries. Just unmap pages. It helps handling cases when i_size is in the middle of the page: no need handle unmap pages beyond i_size manually.

2016-07-27thp: skip file huge pmd on copy_huge_pmd()Kirill A. Shutemov1-18/+16
copy_page_range() has a check for "Don't copy ptes where a page fault will fill them correctly." It works on VMA level. We still copy all page table entries from private mappings, even if they map page cache. We can simplify copy_huge_pmd() a bit by skipping file PMDs. We don't map file private pages with PMDs, so they only can map page cache. It's safe to skip them as they can be re-faulted later.

File COW for THP is handled on pte level: just split the pmd. It's not clear how benefitial would be allocation of huge pages on COW faults. And it would require some code to make them work. I think at some point we can consider teaching khugepaged to collapse pages in COW mappings, but allocating huge on fault is probably overkill.

Splitting THP PMD is simple: just unmap it as in DAX case. This way we can avoid memory overhead on page table allocation to deposit. It's probably a good idea to try to allocation page table with GFP_ATOMIC in __split_huge_pmd_locked() to avoid refaulting the area, but clearing pmd should be good enough for now. Unlike DAX, we also remove the page from rmap and drop reference. pmd_young() is transfered to PageReferenced().

Naive approach: on mapping/unmapping the page as compound we update ->_mapcount on each 4k page. That's not efficient, but it's not obvious how we can optimize this. We can look into optimization later. PG_double_map optimization doesn't work for file pages since lifecycle of file pages is different comparing to anon pages: file page can be mapped again at any time.

2016-07-27mm: postpone page table allocation until we have page to mapKirill A. Shutemov2-126/+188
The idea (and most of code) is borrowed again: from Hugh's patchset on huge tmpfs[1]. Instead of allocation pte page table upfront, we postpone this until we have page to map in hands. This approach opens possibility to map the page as huge if filesystem supports this. Comparing to Hugh's patch I've pushed page table allocation a bit further: into do_set_pte(). This way we can postpone allocation even in faultaround case without moving do_fault_around() after __do_fault(). do_set_pte() got renamed to alloc_set_pte() as it can allocate page table if required.
