mm, vmacache: hash addresses based on pmd
When perf profiling a wide variety of different workloads, it was found
that vmacache_find() had higher than expected cost: up to 0.08% of cpu
utilization in some cases. This was found to rival other core VM
functions such as alloc_pages_vma() with thp enabled and default
mempolicy, and the conditionals in __get_vma_policy().
VMACACHE_HASH() determines which of the four per-task_struct slots a vma
is cached for a particular address. This currently depends on the pfn,
so pfn 5212 occupies a different vmacache slot than its neighboring pfn
5213.
vmacache_find() iterates through all four of current's vmacache slots
when looking up an address. Hashing based on pfn, an address has
~1/VMACACHE_SIZE chance of being cached in the first vmacache slot, or
about 25%, *if* the vma is cached.
This patch hashes an address by its pmd instead of pte to optimize for
workloads with good spatial locality. This results in a higher
probability of vmas being cached in the first slot that is checked:
normally ~70% on the same workloads instead of 25%.

This series removes the local_irq_disable() around
list_lru_shrink_walk() (as used by mm/workingset) by adding
list_lru_shrink_walk_irq().
Vladimir Davydov preferred this over `irq' argument which I added to
struct list_lru.

on top of akpm's tree which has Kirill's shrink_slab series and does not
clash with it (akpm asked me to wait a week or so and repost it then).
I tested the code paths by triggering the OOM-killer via memory over
commit and lockdep did not complain (nor did I see any warnings).
This patch (of 4):
list_lru_walk_node() invokes __list_lru_walk_one() with -1 as the
memcg_idx parameter. The same can be achieved by list_lru_walk_one() and
passing NULL as memcg argument which then gets converted into -1. This is
a preparation step when the spin_lock() function is lifted to the caller
of __list_lru_walk_one(). Invoke list_lru_walk_one() instead
__list_lru_walk_one() when possible.

mm/sparse: add new sparse_init_nid() and sparse_init()

that Linux is not bootable on small memory machines, such as a kdump boot.
The buffers are especially large when CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL is set, as they
are scaled to the maximum physical memory size.
Baoquan provided a fix, which reduces these sizes of these buffers, but it
is much better to get rid of them entirely.
Add a new way to initialize sparse memory: sparse_init_nid(), which only
operates within one memory node, and thus allocates memory either in large
contiguous block or allocates section by section. This eliminates the
need for use of temporary buffers.
For simplified bisecting and review temporarly call sparse_init()
new_sparse_init(), the new interface is going to be enabled as well as old

mm/sparse: abstract sparse buffer allocations
Patch series "sparse_init rewrite", v6.
In sparse_init() we allocate two large buffers to temporary hold usemap
and memmap for the whole machine. However, we can avoid doing that if
we changed sparse_init() to operated on per-node bases instead of doing
it on the whole machine beforehand.
As shown by Baoquan
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/
20180628062857.29658-1-bhe@redhat.com
The buffers are large enough to cause machine stop to boot on small
memory systems.
Another benefit of these changes is that they also obsolete
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_ALLOC_MEM_MAP_TOGETHER.
This patch (of 5):
When struct pages are allocated for sparse-vmemmap VA layout, we first try
to allocate one large buffer, and than if that fails allocate struct pages
for each section as we go.
The code that allocates buffer is uses global variables and is spread
across several call sites.
Cleanup the code by introducing three functions to handle the global
buffer:
sparse_buffer_init() initialize the buffer
sparse_buffer_fini() free the remaining part of the buffer
sparse_buffer_alloc() alloc from the buffer, and if buffer is empty
return NULL
Define these functions in sparse.c instead of sparse-vmemmap.c because
later we will use them for non-vmemmap sparse allocations as well.

mm, page_alloc: double zone's batchsize
To improve page allocator's performance for order-0 pages, each CPU has
a Per-CPU-Pageset(PCP) per zone. Whenever an order-0 page is needed,
PCP will be checked first before asking pages from Buddy. When PCP is
used up, a batch of pages will be fetched from Buddy to improve
performance and the size of batch can affect performance.
zone's batch size gets doubled last time by commit
ba56e91c9401("mm:
page_alloc: increase size of per-cpu-pages") over ten years ago. Since
then, CPU has envolved a lot and CPU's cache sizes also increased.
Dave Hansen is concerned the current batch size doesn't fit well with
modern hardware and suggested me to do two things: first, use a page
allocator intensive benchmark, e.g. will-it-scale/page_fault1 to find
out how performance changes with different batch sizes on various
machines and then choose a new default batch size; second, see how this
new batch size work with other workloads.
In the first test, we saw performance gains on high-core-count systems
and little to no effect on older systems with more modest core counts.
In this phase's test data, two candidates: 63 and 127 are chosen.
In the second step, ebizzy, oltp, kbuild, pigz, netperf, vm-scalability
and more will-it-scale sub-tests are tested to see how these two
candidates work with these workloads and decides a new default according
to their results.
Most test results are flat. will-it-scale/page_fault2 process mode has
10%-18% performance increase on 4-sockets Skylake and Broadwell.
vm-scalability/lru-file-mmap-read has 17%-47% performance increase for
4-sockets servers while for 2-sockets servers, it caused 3%-8% performance
drop. Further analysis showed that, with a larger pcp->batch and thus
larger pcp->high(the relationship of pcp->high=6 * pcp->batch is
maintained in this patch), zone lock contention shifted to LRU add side
lock contention and that caused performance drop. This performance drop
might be mitigated by others' work on optimizing LRU lock.
Another downside of increasing pcp->batch is, when PCP is used up and need
to fetch a batch of pages from Buddy, since batch is increased, that time
can be longer than before. My understanding is, this doesn't affect
slowpath where direct reclaim and compaction dominates. For fastpath,
throughput is a win(according to will-it-scale/page_fault1) but worst
latency can be larger now.
Overall, I think double the batch size from 31 to 63 is relatively safe
and provide good performance boost for high-core-count systems.
The two phase's test results are listed below(all tests are done with THP
disabled).
Phase one(will-it-scale/page_fault1) test results:
Skylake-EX: increased batch size has a good effect on zone->lock
contention, though LRU contention will rise at the same time and
limited the final performance increase.

Skylake-EP: although increased batch reduced zone->lock contention, but
the effect is not as good as EX: zone->lock contention is still as high as
20% with a very high batch value instead of 1% on Skylake-EX or 5% on
Broadwell-EX. Also, total_contention actually decreased with a higher
batch but that doesn't translate to performance increase.

Sandybridge-Desktop: the 0% contention isn't accurate but caused by
dropped fractional part. Since multiple contention path's contentions
are all under 1% here, with some arithmetic operations like add, the
final deviation could be as large as 3%.

At one time powerpc used this field and supporting code. However that

for reserving gigantic huge pages via kernel command line").
There are no users of this field and supporting code, so remove it.

mm, oom: remove sleep from under oom_lock
Tetsuo has pointed out that since
27ae357fa82b ("mm, oom: fix concurrent
munlock and oom reaper unmap, v3") we have a strong synchronization
between the oom_killer and victim's exiting because both have to take
the oom_lock. Therefore the original heuristic to sleep for a short
time in out_of_memory doesn't serve the original purpose.
Moreover Tetsuo has noticed that the short sleep can be more harmful
than actually useful. Hammering the system with many processes can lead
to a starvation when the task holding the oom_lock can block for a long
time (minutes) and block any further progress because the oom_reaper
depends on the oom_lock as well.
Drop the short sleep from out_of_memory when we hold the lock. Keep the
sleep when the trylock fails to throttle the concurrent OOM paths a bit.
This should be solved in a more reasonable way (e.g. sleep proportional
to the time spent in the active reclaiming etc.) but this is much more
complex thing to achieve. This is a quick fixup to remove a stale code.

kernel/dma: remove unsupported gfp_mask parameter from dma_alloc_from_contiguous()
The CMA memory allocator doesn't support standard gfp flags for memory

argument, which covers all the underlaying cma_alloc() function

mm/sparse: optimize memmap allocation during sparse_init()
In sparse_init(), two temporary pointer arrays, usemap_map and map_map
are allocated with the size of NR_MEM_SECTIONS. They are used to store
each memory section's usemap and mem map if marked as present. With the
help of these two arrays, continuous memory chunk is allocated for
usemap and memmap for memory sections on one node. This avoids too many
memory fragmentations. Like below diagram, '1' indicates the present
memory section, '0' means absent one. The number 'n' could be much
smaller than NR_MEM_SECTIONS on most of systems.
|1|1|1|1|0|0|0|0|1|1|0|0|...|1|0||1|0|...|1||0|1|...|0|
-------------------------------------------------------
0 1 2 3 4 5 i i+1 n-1 n
If we fail to populate the page tables to map one section's memmap, its
->section_mem_map will be cleared finally to indicate that it's not
present. After use, these two arrays will be released at the end of
sparse_init().
In 4-level paging mode, each array costs 4M which can be ignorable.
While in 5-level paging, they costs 256M each, 512M altogether. Kdump
kernel Usually only reserves very few memory, e.g 256M. So, even thouth
they are temporarily allocated, still not acceptable.
In fact, there's no need to allocate them with the size of
NR_MEM_SECTIONS. Since the ->section_mem_map clearing has been deferred
to the last, the number of present memory sections are kept the same
during sparse_init() until we finally clear out the memory section's
->section_mem_map if its usemap or memmap is not correctly handled.
Thus in the middle whenever for_each_present_section_nr() loop is taken,
the i-th present memory section is always the same one.
Here only allocate usemap_map and map_map with the size of
'nr_present_sections'. For the i-th present memory section, install its
usemap and memmap to usemap_map[i] and mam_map[i] during allocation.
Then in the last for_each_present_section_nr() loop which clears the
failed memory section's ->section_mem_map, fetch usemap and memmap from
usemap_map[] and map_map[] array and set them into mem_section[]
accordingly.

mm: use special value SHRINKER_REGISTERING instead of list_empty() check
The patch introduces a special value SHRINKER_REGISTERING to use instead
of list_empty() to differ a registering shrinker from unregistered
shrinker. Why we need that at all?
Shrinker registration is split in two parts. The first one is
prealloc_shrinker(), which allocates shrinker memory and reserves ID in
shrinker_idr. This function can fail. The second is
register_shrinker_prepared(), and it finalizes the registration. This
function actually makes shrinker available to be used from
shrink_slab(), and it can't fail.
One shrinker may be based on more then one LRU lists. So, we never
clear the bit in memcg shrinker maps, when (one of) corresponding LRU
list becomes empty, since other LRU lists may be not empty. See
superblock shrinker for example: it is based on two LRU lists:
s_inode_lru and s_dentry_lru. We do not want to clear shrinker bit,
when there are no inodes in s_inode_lru, as s_dentry_lru may contain
dentries.
Instead of that, we use special algorithm to detect shrinkers having no
elements at all its LRU lists, and this is made in shrink_slab_memcg().
See the comment in this function for the details.
Also, in shrink_slab_memcg() we clear shrinker bit in the map, when we
meet unregistered shrinker (bit is set, while there is no a shrinker in
IDR). Otherwise, we would have done that at the moment of shrinker
unregistration for all memcgs (and this looks worse, since iteration
over all memcg may take much time). Also this would have imposed
restrictions on shrinker unregistration order for its users: they would
have had to guarantee, there are no new elements after
unregister_shrinker() (otherwise, a new added element would have set a
bit).
So, if we meet a set bit in map and no shrinker in IDR when we're
iterating over the map in shrink_slab_memcg(), this means the
corresponding shrinker is unregistered, and we must clear the bit.
Another case is shrinker registration. We want two things there:
1) do_shrink_slab() can be called only for completely registered
shrinkers;
2) shrinker internal lists may be populated in any order with
register_shrinker_prepared() (let's talk on the example with sb). Both
of:
a)list_lru_add(&inode->i_sb->s_inode_lru, &inode->i_lru); [cpu0]
memcg_set_shrinker_bit(); [cpu0]
...
register_shrinker_prepared(); [cpu1]
and
b)register_shrinker_prepared(); [cpu0]
...
list_lru_add(&inode->i_sb->s_inode_lru, &inode->i_lru); [cpu1]
memcg_set_shrinker_bit(); [cpu1]
are legitimate. We don't want to impose restriction here and to
force people to use only (b) variant. We don't want to force people to
care, there is no elements in LRU lists before the shrinker is
completely registered. Internal users of LRU lists and shrinker code
are two different subsystems, and they have to be closed in themselves
each other.
In (a) case we have the bit set before shrinker is completely
registered. We don't want do_shrink_slab() is called at this moment, so
we have to detect such the registering shrinkers.
Before this patch list_empty() (shrinker is not linked to the list)
check was used for that. So, in (a) there could be a bit set, but we
don't call do_shrink_slab() unless shrinker is linked to the list. It's
just an indicator, I just overloaded linking to the list.
This was not the best solution, since it's better not to touch the
shrinker memory from shrink_slab_memcg() before it's completely
registered (this also will be useful in the future to make shrink_slab()
completely lockless).
So, this patch introduces better way to detect registering shrinker,
which allows not to dereference shrinker memory. It's just a ~0UL
value, which we insert into the IDR during ID allocation. After
shrinker is ready to be used, we insert actual shrinker pointer in the
IDR, and it becomes available to shrink_slab_memcg().
We can't use NULL instead of this new value for this purpose as:
shrink_slab_memcg() already uses NULL to detect unregistered shrinkers,
and we don't want the function sees NULL and clears the bit, otherwise
(a) won't work.
This is the only thing the patch makes: the better way to detect
registering shrinker. Nothing else this patch makes.
Also this gives a better assembler, but it's minor side of the patch:

mm/vmscan.c: clear shrinker bit if there are no objects related to memcg
To avoid further unneed calls of do_shrink_slab() for shrinkers, which
already do not have any charged objects in a memcg, their bits have to
be cleared.
This patch introduces a lockless mechanism to do that without races
without parallel list lru add. After do_shrink_slab() returns
SHRINK_EMPTY the first time, we clear the bit and call it once again.
Then we restore the bit, if the new return value is different.
Note, that single smp_mb__after_atomic() in shrink_slab_memcg() covers
two situations:
1)list_lru_add() shrink_slab_memcg
list_add_tail() for_each_set_bit() <--- read bit
do_shrink_slab() <--- missed list update (no barrier)
<MB> <MB>
set_bit() do_shrink_slab() <--- seen list update
This situation, when the first do_shrink_slab() sees set bit, but it
doesn't see list update (i.e., race with the first element queueing), is
rare. So we don't add <MB> before the first call of do_shrink_slab()
instead of this to do not slow down generic case. Also, it's need the
second call as seen in below in (2).
2)list_lru_add() shrink_slab_memcg()
list_add_tail() ...
set_bit() ...
... for_each_set_bit()
do_shrink_slab() do_shrink_slab()
clear_bit() ...
... ...
list_lru_add() ...
list_add_tail() clear_bit()
<MB> <MB>
set_bit() do_shrink_slab()
The barriers guarantee that the second do_shrink_slab() in the right
side task sees list update if really cleared the bit. This case is
drawn in the code comment.

mm: add SHRINK_EMPTY shrinker methods return value
We need to distinguish the situations when shrinker has very small
amount of objects (see vfs_pressure_ratio() called from
super_cache_count()), and when it has no objects at all. Currently, in
the both of these cases, shrinker::count_objects() returns 0.
The patch introduces new SHRINK_EMPTY return value, which will be used
for "no objects at all" case. It's is a refactoring mostly, as
SHRINK_EMPTY is replaced by 0 by all callers of do_shrink_slab() in this
patch, and all the magic will happen in further.

mm/vmscan.c: iterate only over charged shrinkers during memcg shrink_slab()
Using the preparations made in previous patches, in case of memcg
shrink, we may avoid shrinkers, which are not set in memcg's shrinkers
bitmap. To do that, we separate iterations over memcg-aware and
!memcg-aware shrinkers, and memcg-aware shrinkers are chosen via
for_each_set_bit() from the bitmap. In case of big nodes, having many
isolated environments, this gives significant performance growth. See
next patches for the details.
Note that the patch does not respect to empty memcg shrinkers, since we
never clear the bitmap bits after we set it once. Their shrinkers will
be called again, with no shrinked objects as result. This functionality
is provided by next patches.

mm, memcg: assign memcg-aware shrinkers bitmap to memcg
Imagine a big node with many cpus, memory cgroups and containers. Let
we have 200 containers, every container has 10 mounts, and 10 cgroups.
All container tasks don't touch foreign containers mounts. If there is
intensive pages write, and global reclaim happens, a writing task has to
iterate over all memcgs to shrink slab, before it's able to go to
shrink_page_list().
Iteration over all the memcg slabs is very expensive: the task has to
visit 200 * 10 = 2000 shrinkers for every memcg, and since there are
2000 memcgs, the total calls are 2000 * 2000 = 4000000.
So, the shrinker makes 4 million do_shrink_slab() calls just to try to
isolate SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pages in one of the actively writing memcg via
shrink_page_list(). I've observed a node spending almost 100% in
kernel, making useless iteration over already shrinked slab.
This patch adds bitmap of memcg-aware shrinkers to memcg. The size of
the bitmap depends on bitmap_nr_ids, and during memcg life it's
maintained to be enough to fit bitmap_nr_ids shrinkers. Every bit in
the map is related to corresponding shrinker id.
Next patches will maintain set bit only for really charged memcg. This
will allow shrink_slab() to increase its performance in significant way.
See the last patch for the numbers.

mm/list_lru.c: combine code under the same define
Patch series "Improve shrink_slab() scalability (old complexity was O(n^2), new is O(n))", v8.
This patcheset solves the problem with slow shrink_slab() occuring on
the machines having many shrinkers and memory cgroups (i.e., with many
containers). The problem is complexity of shrink_slab() is O(n^2) and
it grows too fast with the growth of containers numbers.
Let us have 200 containers, and every container has 10 mounts and 10
cgroups. All container tasks are isolated, and they don't touch foreign
containers mounts.
In case of global reclaim, a task has to iterate all over the memcgs and
to call all the memcg-aware shrinkers for all of them. This means, the
task has to visit 200 * 10 = 2000 shrinkers for every memcg, and since
there are 2000 memcgs, the total calls of do_shrink_slab() are 2000 *
2000 = 4000000.
4 million calls are not a number operations, which can takes 1 cpu
cycle. E.g., super_cache_count() accesses at least two lists, and makes
arifmetical calculations. Even, if there are no charged objects, we do
these calculations, and replaces cpu caches by read memory. I observed
nodes spending almost 100% time in kernel, in case of intensive writing
and global reclaim. The writer consumes pages fast, but it's need to
shrink_slab() before the reclaimer reached shrink pages function (and
frees SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pages). Even if there is no writing, the
iterations just waste the time, and slows reclaim down.
Let's see the small test below:
$echo 1 > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/memory.use_hierarchy
$mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/ct
$echo 4000M > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/ct/memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes
$for i in `seq 0 4000`;
do mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/ct/$i;
echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/ct/$i/cgroup.procs;
mkdir -p s/$i; mount -t tmpfs $i s/$i; touch s/$i/file;
done
Then, let's see drop caches time (5 sequential calls):
$time echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
0.00user 13.78system 0:13.78elapsed 99%CPU
0.00user 5.59system 0:05.60elapsed 99%CPU
0.00user 5.48system 0:05.48elapsed 99%CPU
0.00user 8.35system 0:08.35elapsed 99%CPU
0.00user 8.34system 0:08.35elapsed 99%CPU
The last four calls don't actually shrink anything. So, the iterations
over slab shrinkers take 5.48 seconds. Not so good for scalability.
The patchset solves the problem by making shrink_slab() of O(n)
complexity. There are following functional actions:
1) Assign id to every registered memcg-aware shrinker.
2) Maintain per-memcgroup bitmap of memcg-aware shrinkers, and set a
shrinker-related bit after the first element is added to lru list
(also, when removed child memcg elements are reparanted).
3) Split memcg-aware shrinkers and !memcg-aware shrinkers, and call a
shrinker if its bit is set in memcg's shrinker bitmap. (Also, there is
a functionality to clear the bit, after last element is shrinked).
This gives significant performance increase. The result after patchset
is applied:
$time echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
0.00user 1.10system 0:01.10elapsed 99%CPU
0.00user 0.00system 0:00.01elapsed 64%CPU
0.00user 0.01system 0:00.01elapsed 82%CPU
0.00user 0.00system 0:00.01elapsed 64%CPU
0.00user 0.01system 0:00.01elapsed 82%CPU
The results show the performance increases at least in 548 times.
So, the patchset makes shrink_slab() of less complexity and improves the
performance in such types of load I pointed. This will give a profit in
case of !global reclaim case, since there also will be less
do_shrink_slab() calls.
This patch (of 17):
These two pairs of blocks of code are under the same #ifdef #else
#endif.

memcg, oom: move out_of_memory back to the charge path
Commit
3812c8c8f395 ("mm: memcg: do not trap chargers with full
callstack on OOM") has changed the ENOMEM semantic of memcg charges.
Rather than invoking the oom killer from the charging context it delays
the oom killer to the page fault path (pagefault_out_of_memory). This
in turn means that many users (e.g. slab or g-u-p) will get ENOMEM when
the corresponding memcg hits the hard limit and the memcg is is OOM.
This is behavior is inconsistent with !memcg case where the oom killer
is invoked from the allocation context and the allocator keeps retrying
until it succeeds.
The difference in the behavior is user visible. mmap(MAP_POPULATE)
might result in not fully populated ranges while the mmap return code
doesn't tell that to the userspace. Random syscalls might fail with
ENOMEM etc.
The primary motivation of the different memcg oom semantic was the
deadlock avoidance. Things have changed since then, though. We have an
async oom teardown by the oom reaper now and so we do not have to rely
on the victim to tear down its memory anymore. Therefore we can return
to the original semantic as long as the memcg oom killer is not handed
over to the users space.
There is still one thing to be careful about here though. If the oom
killer is not able to make any forward progress - e.g. because there is
no eligible task to kill - then we have to bail out of the charge path
to prevent from same class of deadlocks. We have basically two options
here. Either we fail the charge with ENOMEM or force the charge and
allow overcharge. The first option has been considered more harmful
than useful because rare inconsistencies in the ENOMEM behavior is hard
to test for and error prone. Basically the same reason why the page
allocator doesn't fail allocations under such conditions. The later
might allow runaways but those should be really unlikely unless somebody
misconfigures the system. E.g. allowing to migrate tasks away from the
memcg to a different unlimited memcg with move_charge_at_immigrate
disabled.

fs, mm: account buffer_head to kmemcg
The buffer_head can consume a significant amount of system memory and is
directly related to the amount of page cache. In our production
environment we have observed that a lot of machines are spending a
significant amount of memory as buffer_head and can not be left as
system memory overhead.
Charging buffer_head is not as simple as adding __GFP_ACCOUNT to the
allocation. The buffer_heads can be allocated in a memcg different from
the memcg of the page for which buffer_heads are being allocated. One
concrete example is memory reclaim. The reclaim can trigger I/O of
pages of any memcg on the system. So, the right way to charge
buffer_head is to extract the memcg from the page for which buffer_heads
are being allocated and then use targeted memcg charging API.

fs: fsnotify: account fsnotify metadata to kmemcg
Patch series "Directed kmem charging", v8.
The Linux kernel's memory cgroup allows limiting the memory usage of the
jobs running on the system to provide isolation between the jobs. All
the kernel memory allocated in the context of the job and marked with
__GFP_ACCOUNT will also be included in the memory usage and be limited
by the job's limit.
The kernel memory can only be charged to the memcg of the process in
whose context kernel memory was allocated. However there are cases
where the allocated kernel memory should be charged to the memcg
different from the current processes's memcg. This patch series
contains two such concrete use-cases i.e. fsnotify and buffer_head.
The fsnotify event objects can consume a lot of system memory for large
or unlimited queues if there is either no or slow listener. The events
are allocated in the context of the event producer. However they should
be charged to the event consumer. Similarly the buffer_head objects can
be allocated in a memcg different from the memcg of the page for which
buffer_head objects are being allocated.
To solve this issue, this patch series introduces mechanism to charge
kernel memory to a given memcg. In case of fsnotify events, the memcg
of the consumer can be used for charging and for buffer_head, the memcg
of the page can be charged. For directed charging, the caller can use
the scope API memalloc_[un]use_memcg() to specify the memcg to charge
for all the __GFP_ACCOUNT allocations within the scope.
This patch (of 2):
A lot of memory can be consumed by the events generated for the huge or
unlimited queues if there is either no or slow listener. This can cause
system level memory pressure or OOMs. So, it's better to account the
fsnotify kmem caches to the memcg of the listener.
However the listener can be in a different memcg than the memcg of the
producer and these allocations happen in the context of the event
producer. This patch introduces remote memcg charging API which the
producer can use to charge the allocations to the memcg of the listener.
There are seven fsnotify kmem caches and among them allocations from
dnotify_struct_cache, dnotify_mark_cache, fanotify_mark_cache and
inotify_inode_mark_cachep happens in the context of syscall from the
listener. So, SLAB_ACCOUNT is enough for these caches.
The objects from fsnotify_mark_connector_cachep are not accounted as
they are small compared to the notification mark or events and it is
unclear whom to account connector to since it is shared by all events
attached to the inode.
The allocations from the event caches happen in the context of the event
producer. For such caches we will need to remote charge the allocations
to the listener's memcg. Thus we save the memcg reference in the
fsnotify_group structure of the listener.
This patch has also moved the members of fsnotify_group to keep the size
same, at least for 64 bit build, even with additional member by filling
the holes.

One comes from __add_section()->hotplug_memory_register() and the other

In case we had to register a new node, hotplug_memory_register() will

one place where the memory sections are registered.

This is a small cleanup for the memhotplug code. A lot more could be
done, but it is better to start somewhere. I tried to unify/remove
duplicated code.
The following is what this patchset does:
1) add_memory_resource() has code to allocate a node in case it was
offline. Since try_online_node has some code for that as well, I just
made add_memory_resource() to use that so we can remove duplicated
code.. This is better explained in patch 1/4.
2) register_mem_sect_under_node() will be called only from
link_mem_sections()
3) Make register_mem_sect_under_node() a callback of
walk_memory_range()
4) Drop unnecessary checks from register_mem_sect_under_node()
I have done some tests and I could not see anything broken because of
this patchset.
add_memory_resource() contains code to allocate a new node in case it is
necessary. Since try_online_node() also has some code for this purpose,
let us make use of that and remove duplicate code.
This introduces __try_online_node(), which is called by
add_memory_resource() and try_online_node(). __try_online_node() has
two new parameters, start_addr of the node, and if the node should be
onlined and registered right away. This is always wanted if we are
calling from do_cpu_up(), but not when we are calling from memhotplug
code. Nothing changes from the point of view of the users of
try_online_node(), since try_online_node passes start_addr=0 and
online_node=true to __try_online_node().

mm: workingset: remove local_irq_disable() from count_shadow_nodes()
Patch series "mm: use irq locking suffix instead local_irq_disable()".
A small series which avoids using local_irq_disable()/local_irq_enable()
but instead does spin_lock_irq()/spin_unlock_irq() so it is within the
context of the lock which it belongs to. Patch #1 is a cleanup where
local_irq_.*() remained after the lock was removed.
This patch (of 2):
In
0c7c1bed7e13 ("mm: make counting of list_lru_one::nr_items lockless")
the
spin_lock(&nlru->lock);
statement was replaced with
rcu_read_lock();
in __list_lru_count_one(). The comment in count_shadow_nodes() says
that the local_irq_disable() is required because the lock must be
acquired with disabled interrupts and (spin_lock()) does not do so.
Since the lock is replaced with rcu_read_lock() the local_irq_disable()
is no longer needed. The code path is
list_lru_shrink_count()
-> list_lru_count_one()
-> __list_lru_count_one()
-> rcu_read_lock()
-> list_lru_from_memcg_idx()
-> rcu_read_unlock()
Remove the local_irq_disable() statement.

mm, huge page: copy target sub-page last when copy huge page
Huge page helps to reduce TLB miss rate, but it has higher cache
footprint, sometimes this may cause some issue. For example, when
copying huge page on x86_64 platform, the cache footprint is 4M. But on
a Xeon E5 v3 2699 CPU, there are 18 cores, 36 threads, and only 45M LLC
(last level cache). That is, in average, there are 2.5M LLC for each
core and 1.25M LLC for each thread.
If the cache contention is heavy when copying the huge page, and we copy
the huge page from the begin to the end, it is possible that the begin
of huge page is evicted from the cache after we finishing copying the
end of the huge page. And it is possible for the application to access
the begin of the huge page after copying the huge page.
In
c79b57e462b5d ("mm: hugetlb: clear target sub-page last when clearing
huge page"), to keep the cache lines of the target subpage hot, the
order to clear the subpages in the huge page in clear_huge_page() is
changed to clearing the subpage which is furthest from the target
subpage firstly, and the target subpage last. The similar order
changing helps huge page copying too. That is implemented in this
patch. Because we have put the order algorithm into a separate
function, the implementation is quite simple.
The patch is a generic optimization which should benefit quite some
workloads, not for a specific use case. To demonstrate the performance
benefit of the patch, we tested it with vm-scalability run on
transparent huge page.
With this patch, the throughput increases ~16.6% in vm-scalability
anon-cow-seq test case with 36 processes on a 2 socket Xeon E5 v3 2699
system (36 cores, 72 threads). The test case set
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled to be always, mmap() a big
anonymous memory area and populate it, then forked 36 child processes,
each writes to the anonymous memory area from the begin to the end, so
cause copy on write. For each child process, other child processes
could be seen as other workloads which generate heavy cache pressure.
At the same time, the IPC (instruction per cycle) increased from 0.63 to
0.78, and the time spent in user space is reduced ~7.2%.

shmem: use monotonic time for i_generation
get_seconds() is deprecated because it will lead to a 32-bit overflow in
2038 or 2106. We don't need the i_generation to be strictly monotonic
anyway, and other file systems like ext4 and xfs just use prandom_u32(),
so let's use the same one here.
If this is considered too slow, we could also use ktime_get_seconds() or
ktime_get_real_seconds() to keep the previous behavior. Both of these
return a time64_t and are not deprecated, but only return a unique value
once per second, and are predictable.

mm, page_alloc: actually ignore mempolicies for high priority allocations
__alloc_pages_slowpath() has for a long time contained code to ignore
node restrictions from memory policies for high priority allocations.
The current code that resets the zonelist iterator however does
effectively nothing after commit
7810e6781e0f ("mm, page_alloc: do not
break __GFP_THISNODE by zonelist reset") removed a buggy zonelist reset.
Even before that commit, mempolicy restrictions were still not ignored,
as they are passed in ac->nodemask which is untouched by the code.
We can either remove the code, or make it work as intended. Since
ac->nodemask can be set from task's mempolicy via alloc_pages_current()
and thus also alloc_pages(), it may indeed affect kernel allocations,
and it makes sense to ignore it to allow progress for high priority
allocations.
Thus, this patch resets ac->nodemask to NULL in such cases. This
assumes all callers can handle it (i.e. there are no guarantees as in
the case of __GFP_THISNODE) which seems to be the case. The same
assumption is already present in check_retry_cpuset() for some time.
The expected effect is that high priority kernel allocations in the
context of userspace tasks (e.g. OOM victims) restricted by mempolicies
will have higher chance to succeed if they are restricted to nodes with
depleted memory, while there are other nodes with free memory left.
It's not a new intention, but for the first time the code will match the
intention, AFAICS. It was intended by commit
183f6371aac2 ("mm: ignore
mempolicies when using ALLOC_NO_WATERMARK") in v3.6 but I think it never
really worked, as mempolicy restriction was already encoded in nodemask,
not zonelist, at that time.
So originally that was for ALLOC_NO_WATERMARK only. Then it was
adjusted by
e46e7b77c909 ("mm, page_alloc: recalculate the preferred
zoneref if the context can ignore memory policies") and
cd04ae1e2dc8
("mm, oom: do not rely on TIF_MEMDIE for memory reserves access") to the
current state. So even GFP_ATOMIC would now ignore mempolicies after
the initial attempts fail - if the code worked as people thought it
does.

thp: use mm_file_counter to determine update which rss counter
Since commit
eca56ff906bd ("mm, shmem: add internal shmem resident

accounting from regular files. So, all shmem pages should be accounted
to MM_SHMEMPAGES instead of MM_FILEPAGES.
And, normal 4K shmem pages have been accounted to MM_SHMEMPAGES, so
shmem thp pages should be not treated differently. Account them to
MM_SHMEMPAGES via mm_counter_file() since shmem pages are swap backed to
keep consistent with normal 4K shmem pages.
This will not change the rss counter of processes since shmem pages are
still a part of it.
The /proc/pid/status and /proc/pid/statm counters will however be more
accurate wrt shmem usage, as originally intended. And as
eca56ff906bd
("mm, shmem: add internal shmem resident memory accounting") mentioned,
oom also could report more accurate "shmem-rss".

mm: skip invalid pages block at a time in zero_resv_unresv()
The role of zero_resv_unavail() is to make sure that every struct page
that is allocated but is not backed by memory that is accessible by
kernel is zeroed and not in some uninitialized state.
Since struct pages are allocated in blocks (2M pages in x86 case), we
can skip pageblock_nr_pages at a time, when the first one is found to be
invalid.
This optimization may help since now on x86 every hole in e820 maps is
marked as reserved in memblock, and thus will go through this function.
This function is called before sched_clock() is initialized, so I used
my x86 early boot clock patches to measure the performance improvement.
With 1T hole on i7-8700 currently we would take 0.606918s of boot time,
but with this optimization 0.001103s.

unintentionally changed the prefetch in a way where the prefetch is
turned to a real fetch, and only the next->next pointer is prefetched.

allocation. Restore the previous behavior.

fs/seq_file.c: simplify seq_file iteration code and interface
The documentation for seq_file suggests that it is necessary to be able
to move the iterator to a given offset, however that is not the case.
If the iterator is stored in the private data and is stable from one
read() syscall to the next, it is only necessary to support first/next
interactions. Implementing this in a client is a little clumsy.
- if ->start() is given a pos of zero, it should go to start of
sequence.
- if ->start() is given the name pos that was given to the most recent
next() or start(), it should restore the iterator to state just
before that last call
- if ->start is given another number, it should set the iterator one
beyond the start just before the last ->start or ->next call.
Also, the documentation says that the implementation can interpret the
pos however it likes (other than zero meaning start), but seq_file
increments the pos sometimes which does impose on the implementation.
This patch simplifies the interface for first/next iteration and
simplifies the code, while maintaining complete backward compatability.
Now:
- if ->start() is given a pos of zero, it should return an iterator
placed at the start of the sequence
- if ->start() is given a non-zero pos, it should return the iterator
in the same state it was after the last ->start or ->next.
This is particularly useful for interators which walk the multiple
chains in a hash table, e.g. using rhashtable_walk*. See
fs/gfs2/glock.c and drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/llite/vvp_dev.c
A large part of achieving this is to *always* call ->next after ->show
has successfully stored all of an entry in the buffer. Never just
increment the index instead. Also:
- always pass &m->index to ->start() and ->next(), never a temp
variable
- don't clear ->from when ->count is zero, as ->from is dead when
->count is zero.
Some ->next functions do not increment *pos when they return NULL. To
maintain compatability with this, we still need to increment m->index in
one place, if ->next didn't increment it. Note that such ->next
functions are buggy and should be fixed. A simple demonstration is
dd if=/proc/swaps bs=1000 skip=1
Choose any block size larger than the size of /proc/swaps. This will
always show the whole last line of /proc/swaps.
This patch doesn't work around buggy next() functions for this case.

ntfs: mft: remove VLA usage
In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this
allocates the maximum size stack buffer. Existing checks already
require that blocksize >= NTFS_BLOCK_SIZE and mft_record_size <=
PAGE_SIZE, so max_bhs can be at most PAGE_SIZE / NTFS_BLOCK_SIZE.
Sanity checks are added for robustness.

ntfs: decompress: remove VLA usage
In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this
moves the stack buffer used during decompression to be allocated
externally.
The existing "dest_max_index" used in the VLA is bounded by cb_max_page.
cb_max_page is bounded by max_page, and max_page is bounded by nr_pages.
Since nr_pages is used for the "pages" allocation, it can similarly be
used for the "completed_pages" allocation and passed into the
decompression function. The error paths are updated to free the new
allocation.

ntfs: aops: remove VLA usage
In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this uses
the maximum size needed on the stack and adds a sanity check for
robustness: index.block_size cannot be larger than PAGE_SIZE nor less
than NTFS_BLOCK_SIZE.
