Maple Tree: add new data structure
Patch series "Introducing the Maple Tree"
The maple tree is an RCU-safe range based B-tree designed to use modern
processor cache efficiently. There are a number of places in the kernel
that a non-overlapping range-based tree would be beneficial, especially
one with a simple interface. If you use an rbtree with other data
structures to improve performance or an interval tree to track
non-overlapping ranges, then this is for you.
The tree has a branching factor of 10 for non-leaf nodes and 16 for leaf
nodes. With the increased branching factor, it is significantly shorter
than the rbtree so it has fewer cache misses. The removal of the linked
list between subsequent entries also reduces the cache misses and the need
to pull in the previous and next VMA during many tree alterations.
The first user that is covered in this patch set is the vm_area_struct,
where three data structures are replaced by the maple tree: the augmented
rbtree, the vma cache, and the linked list of VMAs in the mm_struct. The
long term goal is to reduce or remove the mmap_lock contention.
The plan is to get to the point where we use the maple tree in RCU mode.
Readers will not block for writers. A single write operation will be
allowed at a time. A reader re-walks if stale data is encountered. VMAs
would be RCU enabled and this mode would be entered once multiple tasks
are using the mm_struct.
Davidlor said
: Yes I like the maple tree, and at this stage I don't think we can ask for

: complex) by consolidating the three complimentary data structures very
: much worth it considering performance does not take a hit. This was very

: with the foundation of replacing the locked rbtree with RCU aware trees.
A similar work has been discovered in the academic press
https://pdos.csail.mit.edu/papers/rcuvm:asplos12.pdf
Sheer coincidence. We designed our tree with the intention of solving the
hardest problem first. Upon settling on a b-tree variant and a rough
outline, we researched ranged based b-trees and RCU b-trees and did find
that article. So it was nice to find reassurances that we were on the
right path, but our design choice of using ranges made that paper unusable
for us.

are in debug code. These will be replaced with a WARN_ON() call in the

will also be reduced in number at a later date. These exist to catch
things such as out-of-range accesses which would crash anyways.

mm/demotion: add support for explicit memory tiers
Patch series "mm/demotion: Memory tiers and demotion", v15.
The current kernel has the basic memory tiering support: Inactive pages on
a higher tier NUMA node can be migrated (demoted) to a lower tier NUMA
node to make room for new allocations on the higher tier NUMA node.
Frequently accessed pages on a lower tier NUMA node can be migrated
(promoted) to a higher tier NUMA node to improve the performance.
In the current kernel, memory tiers are defined implicitly via a demotion
path relationship between NUMA nodes, which is created during the kernel
initialization and updated when a NUMA node is hot-added or hot-removed.
The current implementation puts all nodes with CPU into the highest tier,
and builds the tier hierarchy tier-by-tier by establishing the per-node
demotion targets based on the distances between nodes.
This current memory tier kernel implementation needs to be improved for
several important use cases:
* The current tier initialization code always initializes each
memory-only NUMA node into a lower tier. But a memory-only NUMA node
may have a high performance memory device (e.g. a DRAM-backed
memory-only node on a virtual machine) and that should be put into a
higher tier.
* The current tier hierarchy always puts CPU nodes into the top tier.
But on a system with HBM (e.g. GPU memory) devices, these memory-only
HBM NUMA nodes should be in the top tier, and DRAM nodes with CPUs are
better to be placed into the next lower tier.
* Also because the current tier hierarchy always puts CPU nodes into the
top tier, when a CPU is hot-added (or hot-removed) and triggers a memory
node from CPU-less into a CPU node (or vice versa), the memory tier
hierarchy gets changed, even though no memory node is added or removed.
This can make the tier hierarchy unstable and make it difficult to
support tier-based memory accounting.
* A higher tier node can only be demoted to nodes with shortest distance
on the next lower tier as defined by the demotion path, not any other
node from any lower tier. This strict, demotion order does not work in
all use cases (e.g. some use cases may want to allow cross-socket
demotion to another node in the same demotion tier as a fallback when
the preferred demotion node is out of space), and has resulted in the
feature request for an interface to override the system-wide, per-node
demotion order from the userspace. This demotion order is also
inconsistent with the page allocation fallback order when all the nodes
in a higher tier are out of space: The page allocation can fall back to
any node from any lower tier, whereas the demotion order doesn't allow
that.
This patch series make the creation of memory tiers explicit under the
control of device driver.
Memory Tier Initialization
==========================
Linux kernel presents memory devices as NUMA nodes and each memory device
is of a specific type. The memory type of a device is represented by its
abstract distance. A memory tier corresponds to a range of abstract
distance. This allows for classifying memory devices with a specific
performance range into a memory tier.
By default, all memory nodes are assigned to the default tier with
abstract distance 512.
A device driver can move its memory nodes from the default tier. For
example, PMEM can move its memory nodes below the default tier, whereas
GPU can move its memory nodes above the default tier.
The kernel initialization code makes the decision on which exact tier a
memory node should be assigned to based on the requests from the device
drivers as well as the memory device hardware information provided by the
firmware.
Hot-adding/removing CPUs doesn't affect memory tier hierarchy.
This patch (of 10):
In the current kernel, memory tiers are defined implicitly via a demotion
path relationship between NUMA nodes, which is created during the kernel
initialization and updated when a NUMA node is hot-added or hot-removed.
The current implementation puts all nodes with CPU into the highest tier,
and builds the tier hierarchy by establishing the per-node demotion
targets based on the distances between nodes.
This current memory tier kernel implementation needs to be improved for
several important use cases,
The current tier initialization code always initializes each memory-only
NUMA node into a lower tier. But a memory-only NUMA node may have a high
performance memory device (e.g. a DRAM-backed memory-only node on a
virtual machine) that should be put into a higher tier.
The current tier hierarchy always puts CPU nodes into the top tier. But
on a system with HBM or GPU devices, the memory-only NUMA nodes mapping
these devices should be in the top tier, and DRAM nodes with CPUs are
better to be placed into the next lower tier.
With current kernel higher tier node can only be demoted to nodes with
shortest distance on the next lower tier as defined by the demotion path,
not any other node from any lower tier. This strict, demotion order does
not work in all use cases (e.g. some use cases may want to allow
cross-socket demotion to another node in the same demotion tier as a
fallback when the preferred demotion node is out of space), This demotion
order is also inconsistent with the page allocation fallback order when
all the nodes in a higher tier are out of space: The page allocation can
fall back to any node from any lower tier, whereas the demotion order
doesn't allow that.
This patch series address the above by defining memory tiers explicitly.
Linux kernel presents memory devices as NUMA nodes and each memory device
is of a specific type. The memory type of a device is represented by its
abstract distance. A memory tier corresponds to a range of abstract
distance. This allows for classifying memory devices with a specific
performance range into a memory tier.
This patch configures the range/chunk size to be 128. The default DRAM
abstract distance is 512. We can have 4 memory tiers below the default
DRAM with abstract distance range 0 - 127, 127 - 255, 256- 383, 384 - 511.
Faster memory devices can be placed in these faster(higher) memory tiers.
Slower memory devices like persistent memory will have abstract distance
higher than the default DRAM level.

mm: multi-gen LRU: thrashing prevention
Add /sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/min_ttl_ms for thrashing prevention, as
requested by many desktop users [1].
When set to value N, it prevents the working set of N milliseconds from
getting evicted. The OOM killer is triggered if this working set cannot
be kept in memory. Based on the average human detectable lag (~100ms),
N=1000 usually eliminates intolerable lags due to thrashing. Larger
values like N=3000 make lags less noticeable at the risk of premature OOM
kills.
Compared with the size-based approach [2], this time-based approach
has the following advantages:
1. It is easier to configure because it is agnostic to applications
and memory sizes.
2. It is more reliable because it is directly wired to the OOM killer.

only well-known case of the mmap_lock contention happens on Android, due
to Scudo [1] which allocates several thousand VMAs for merely a few
hundred MBs. The SPF and the Maple Tree also have provided their own

shown previously.
Clearing the accessed bit in non-leaf PMD entries can also be disabled,

mm: multi-gen LRU: optimize multiple memcgs
When multiple memcgs are available, it is possible to use generations as a
frame of reference to make better choices and improve overall performance
under global memory pressure. This patch adds a basic optimization to
select memcgs that can drop single-use unmapped clean pages first. Doing
so reduces the chance of going into the aging path or swapping, which can
be costly.
A typical example that benefits from this optimization is a server running
mixed types of workloads, e.g., heavy anon workload in one memcg and heavy
buffered I/O workload in the other.
Though this optimization can be applied to both kswapd and direct reclaim,
it is only added to kswapd to keep the patchset manageable. Later
improvements may cover the direct reclaim path.
While ensuring certain fairness to all eligible memcgs, proportional scans
of individual memcgs also require proper backoff to avoid overshooting
their aggregate reclaim target by too much. Otherwise it can cause high
direct reclaim latency. The conditions for backoff are:
1. At low priorities, for direct reclaim, if aging fairness or direct
reclaim latency is at risk, i.e., aging one memcg multiple times or
swapping after the target is met.
2. At high priorities, for global reclaim, if per-zone free pages are
above respective watermarks.

mm: multi-gen LRU: support page table walks
To further exploit spatial locality, the aging prefers to walk page tables
to search for young PTEs and promote hot pages. A kill switch will be
added in the next patch to disable this behavior. When disabled, the
aging relies on the rmap only.
NB: this behavior has nothing similar with the page table scanning in the
2.4 kernel [1], which searches page tables for old PTEs, adds cold pages
to swapcache and unmaps them.
To avoid confusion, the term "iteration" specifically means the traversal
of an entire mm_struct list; the term "walk" will be applied to page
tables and the rmap, as usual.
An mm_struct list is maintained for each memcg, and an mm_struct follows
its owner task to the new memcg when this task is migrated. Given an
lruvec, the aging iterates lruvec_memcg()->mm_list and calls
walk_page_range() with each mm_struct on this list to promote hot pages
before it increments max_seq.
When multiple page table walkers iterate the same list, each of them gets
a unique mm_struct; therefore they can run concurrently. Page table
walkers ignore any misplaced pages, e.g., if an mm_struct was migrated,
pages it left in the previous memcg will not be promoted when its current
memcg is under reclaim. Similarly, page table walkers will not promote
pages from nodes other than the one under reclaim.
This patch uses the following optimizations when walking page tables:
1. It tracks the usage of mm_struct's between context switches so that
page table walkers can skip processes that have been sleeping since
the last iteration.
2. It uses generational Bloom filters to record populated branches so
that page table walkers can reduce their search space based on the
query results, e.g., to skip page tables containing mostly holes or
misplaced pages.
3. It takes advantage of the accessed bit in non-leaf PMD entries when
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NONLEAF_PMD_YOUNG=y.
4. It does not zigzag between a PGD table and the same PMD table
spanning multiple VMAs. IOW, it finishes all the VMAs within the
range of the same PMD table before it returns to a PGD table. This
improves the cache performance for workloads that have large
numbers of tiny VMAs [2], especially when CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS=5.

mm: multi-gen LRU: exploit locality in rmap
Searching the rmap for PTEs mapping each page on an LRU list (to test and
clear the accessed bit) can be expensive because pages from different VMAs
(PA space) are not cache friendly to the rmap (VA space). For workloads
mostly using mapped pages, searching the rmap can incur the highest CPU
cost in the reclaim path.
This patch exploits spatial locality to reduce the trips into the rmap.
When shrink_page_list() walks the rmap and finds a young PTE, a new
function lru_gen_look_around() scans at most BITS_PER_LONG-1 adjacent
PTEs. On finding another young PTE, it clears the accessed bit and
updates the gen counter of the page mapped by this PTE to
(max_seq%MAX_NR_GENS)+1.

mm: multi-gen LRU: minimal implementation
To avoid confusion, the terms "promotion" and "demotion" will be applied
to the multi-gen LRU, as a new convention; the terms "activation" and
"deactivation" will be applied to the active/inactive LRU, as usual.
The aging produces young generations. Given an lruvec, it increments
max_seq when max_seq-min_seq+1 approaches MIN_NR_GENS. The aging promotes
hot pages to the youngest generation when it finds them accessed through
page tables; the demotion of cold pages happens consequently when it
increments max_seq. Promotion in the aging path does not involve any LRU
list operations, only the updates of the gen counter and
lrugen->nr_pages[]; demotion, unless as the result of the increment of
max_seq, requires LRU list operations, e.g., lru_deactivate_fn(). The
aging has the complexity O(nr_hot_pages), since it is only interested in
hot pages.
The eviction consumes old generations. Given an lruvec, it increments
min_seq when lrugen->lists[] indexed by min_seq%MAX_NR_GENS becomes empty.
A feedback loop modeled after the PID controller monitors refaults over
anon and file types and decides which type to evict when both types are
available from the same generation.
The protection of pages accessed multiple times through file descriptors
takes place in the eviction path. Each generation is divided into
multiple tiers. A page accessed N times through file descriptors is in
tier order_base_2(N). Tiers do not have dedicated lrugen->lists[], only
bits in folio->flags. The aforementioned feedback loop also monitors
refaults over all tiers and decides when to protect pages in which tiers
(N>1), using the first tier (N=0,1) as a baseline. The first tier
contains single-use unmapped clean pages, which are most likely the best
choices. In contrast to promotion in the aging path, the protection of a
page in the eviction path is achieved by moving this page to the next
generation, i.e., min_seq+1, if the feedback loop decides so. This
approach has the following advantages:
1. It removes the cost of activation in the buffered access path by
inferring whether pages accessed multiple times through file
descriptors are statistically hot and thus worth protecting in the
eviction path.
2. It takes pages accessed through page tables into account and avoids
overprotecting pages accessed multiple times through file
descriptors. (Pages accessed through page tables are in the first
tier, since N=0.)
3. More tiers provide better protection for pages accessed more than
twice through file descriptors, when under heavy buffered I/O
workloads.

mm: multi-gen LRU: groundwork
Evictable pages are divided into multiple generations for each lruvec.
The youngest generation number is stored in lrugen->max_seq for both
anon and file types as they are aged on an equal footing. The oldest
generation numbers are stored in lrugen->min_seq[] separately for anon
and file types as clean file pages can be evicted regardless of swap
constraints. These three variables are monotonically increasing.
Generation numbers are truncated into order_base_2(MAX_NR_GENS+1) bits
in order to fit into the gen counter in folio->flags. Each truncated
generation number is an index to lrugen->lists[]. The sliding window
technique is used to track at least MIN_NR_GENS and at most
MAX_NR_GENS generations. The gen counter stores a value within [1,
MAX_NR_GENS] while a page is on one of lrugen->lists[]. Otherwise it
stores 0.
There are two conceptually independent procedures: "the aging", which
produces young generations, and "the eviction", which consumes old
generations. They form a closed-loop system, i.e., "the page reclaim".
Both procedures can be invoked from userspace for the purposes of working
set estimation and proactive reclaim. These techniques are commonly used
to optimize job scheduling (bin packing) in data centers [1][2].
To avoid confusion, the terms "hot" and "cold" will be applied to the
multi-gen LRU, as a new convention; the terms "active" and "inactive" will
be applied to the active/inactive LRU, as usual.
The protection of hot pages and the selection of cold pages are based
on page access channels and patterns. There are two access channels:
one through page tables and the other through file descriptors. The
protection of the former channel is by design stronger because:
1. The uncertainty in determining the access patterns of the former
channel is higher due to the approximation of the accessed bit.
2. The cost of evicting the former channel is higher due to the TLB
flushes required and the likelihood of encountering the dirty bit.
3. The penalty of underprotecting the former channel is higher because
applications usually do not prepare themselves for major page
faults like they do for blocked I/O. E.g., GUI applications
commonly use dedicated I/O threads to avoid blocking rendering
threads.
There are also two access patterns: one with temporal locality and the
other without. For the reasons listed above, the former channel is
assumed to follow the former pattern unless VM_SEQ_READ or VM_RAND_READ is
present; the latter channel is assumed to follow the latter pattern unless
outlying refaults have been observed [3][4].
The next patch will address the "outlying refaults". Three macros, i.e.,
LRU_REFS_WIDTH, LRU_REFS_PGOFF and LRU_REFS_MASK, used later are added in
this patch to make the entire patchset less diffy.
A page is added to the youngest generation on faulting. The aging needs
to check the accessed bit at least twice before handing this page over to
the eviction. The first check takes care of the accessed bit set on the
initial fault; the second check makes sure this page has not been used
since then. This protocol, AKA second chance, requires a minimum of two
generations, hence MIN_NR_GENS.

mm: x86: add CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NONLEAF_PMD_YOUNG
Some architectures support the accessed bit in non-leaf PMD entries, e.g.,
x86 sets the accessed bit in a non-leaf PMD entry when using it as part of
linear address translation [1]. Page table walkers that clear the
accessed bit may use this capability to reduce their search space.
Note that:
1. Although an inline function is preferable, this capability is added
as a configuration option for consistency with the existing macros.
2. Due to the little interest in other varieties, this capability was
only tested on Intel and AMD CPUs.
Thanks to the following developers for their efforts [2][3].

mm: x86, arm64: add arch_has_hw_pte_young()
Patch series "Multi-Gen LRU Framework", v14.
What's new
==========
1. OpenWrt, in addition to Android, Arch Linux Zen, Armbian, ChromeOS,
Liquorix, post-factum and XanMod, is now shipping MGLRU on 5.15.
2. Fixed long-tailed direct reclaim latency seen on high-memory (TBs)
machines. The old direct reclaim backoff, which tries to enforce a
minimum fairness among all eligible memcgs, over-swapped by about
(total_mem>>DEF_PRIORITY)-nr_to_reclaim. The new backoff, which
pulls the plug on swapping once the target is met, trades some
fairness for curtailed latency:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/
20220918080010.2920238-10-yuzhao@google.com/
3. Fixed minior build warnings and conflicts. More comments and nits.
TLDR
====
The current page reclaim is too expensive in terms of CPU usage and it
often makes poor choices about what to evict. This patchset offers an
alternative solution that is performant, versatile and
straightforward.

Benchmark results
=================
Independent lab results
-----------------------
Based on the popularity of searches [01] and the memory usage in
Google's public cloud, the most popular open-source memory-hungry
applications, in alphabetical order, are:
Apache Cassandra Memcached
Apache Hadoop MongoDB
Apache Spark PostgreSQL
MariaDB (MySQL) Redis
An independent lab evaluated MGLRU with the most widely used benchmark
suites for the above applications. They posted 960 data points along
with kernel metrics and perf profiles collected over more than 500
hours of total benchmark time. Their final reports show that, with 95%
confidence intervals (CIs), the above applications all performed
significantly better for at least part of their benchmark matrices.
On 5.14:
1. Apache Spark [02] took 95% CIs [9.28, 11.19]% and [12.20, 14.93]%
less wall time to sort three billion random integers, respectively,
under the medium- and the high-concurrency conditions, when
overcommitting memory. There were no statistically significant
changes in wall time for the rest of the benchmark matrix.
2. MariaDB [03] achieved 95% CIs [5.24, 10.71]% and [20.22, 25.97]%
more transactions per minute (TPM), respectively, under the medium-
and the high-concurrency conditions, when overcommitting memory.
There were no statistically significant changes in TPM for the rest
of the benchmark matrix.
3. Memcached [04] achieved 95% CIs [23.54, 32.25]%, [20.76, 41.61]%
and [21.59, 30.02]% more operations per second (OPS), respectively,
for sequential access, random access and Gaussian (distribution)
access, when THP=always; 95% CIs [13.85, 15.97]% and
[23.94, 29.92]% more OPS, respectively, for random access and
Gaussian access, when THP=never. There were no statistically
significant changes in OPS for the rest of the benchmark matrix.
4. MongoDB [05] achieved 95% CIs [2.23, 3.44]%, [6.97, 9.73]% and
[2.16, 3.55]% more operations per second (OPS), respectively, for
exponential (distribution) access, random access and Zipfian
(distribution) access, when underutilizing memory; 95% CIs
[8.83, 10.03]%, [21.12, 23.14]% and [5.53, 6.46]% more OPS,
respectively, for exponential access, random access and Zipfian
access, when overcommitting memory.
On 5.15:
5. Apache Cassandra [06] achieved 95% CIs [1.06, 4.10]%, [1.94, 5.43]%
and [4.11, 7.50]% more operations per second (OPS), respectively,
for exponential (distribution) access, random access and Zipfian
(distribution) access, when swap was off; 95% CIs [0.50, 2.60]%,
[6.51, 8.77]% and [3.29, 6.75]% more OPS, respectively, for
exponential access, random access and Zipfian access, when swap was
on.
6. Apache Hadoop [07] took 95% CIs [5.31, 9.69]% and [2.02, 7.86]%
less average wall time to finish twelve parallel TeraSort jobs,
respectively, under the medium- and the high-concurrency
conditions, when swap was on. There were no statistically
significant changes in average wall time for the rest of the
benchmark matrix.
7. PostgreSQL [08] achieved 95% CI [1.75, 6.42]% more transactions per
minute (TPM) under the high-concurrency condition, when swap was
off; 95% CIs [12.82, 18.69]% and [22.70, 46.86]% more TPM,
respectively, under the medium- and the high-concurrency
conditions, when swap was on. There were no statistically
significant changes in TPM for the rest of the benchmark matrix.
8. Redis [09] achieved 95% CIs [0.58, 5.94]%, [6.55, 14.58]% and
[11.47, 19.36]% more total operations per second (OPS),
respectively, for sequential access, random access and Gaussian
(distribution) access, when THP=always; 95% CIs [1.27, 3.54]%,

Third-party testimonials
------------------------
Konstantin reported [11]:
I have Archlinux with 8G RAM + zswap + swap. While developing, I
have lots of apps opened such as multiple LSP-servers for different
langs, chats, two browsers, etc... Usually, my system gets quickly
to a point of SWAP-storms, where I have to kill LSP-servers,
restart browsers to free memory, etc, otherwise the system lags
heavily and is barely usable.
1.5 day ago I migrated from 5.11.15 kernel to 5.12 + the LRU
patchset, and I started up by opening lots of apps to create memory
pressure, and worked for a day like this. Till now I had not a
single SWAP-storm, and mind you I got 3.4G in SWAP. I was never
getting to the point of 3G in SWAP before without a single
SWAP-storm.
Vaibhav from IBM reported [12]:
In a synthetic MongoDB Benchmark, seeing an average of ~19%
throughput improvement on POWER10(Radix MMU + 64K Page Size) with
MGLRU patches on top of 5.16 kernel for MongoDB + YCSB across
three different request distributions, namely, Exponential, Uniform
and Zipfan.
Shuang from U of Rochester reported [13]:
With the MGLRU, fio achieved 95% CIs [38.95, 40.26]%, [4.12, 6.64]%
and [9.26, 10.36]% higher throughput, respectively, for random
access, Zipfian (distribution) access and Gaussian (distribution)
access, when the average number of jobs per CPU is 1; 95% CIs
[42.32, 49.15]%, [9.44, 9.89]% and [20.99, 22.86]% higher
throughput, respectively, for random access, Zipfian access and
Gaussian access, when the average number of jobs per CPU is 2.
Daniel from Michigan Tech reported [14]:
With Memcached allocating ~100GB of byte-addressable Optante,
performance improvement in terms of throughput (measured as queries
per second) was about 10% for a series of workloads.
Large-scale deployments
-----------------------
We've rolled out MGLRU to tens of millions of ChromeOS users and
about a million Android users. Google's fleetwide profiling [15] shows
an overall 40% decrease in kswapd CPU usage, in addition to
improvements in other UX metrics, e.g., an 85% decrease in the number
of low-memory kills at the 75th percentile and an 18% decrease in
app launch time at the 50th percentile.
The downstream kernels that have been using MGLRU include:
1. Android [16]
2. Arch Linux Zen [17]
3. Armbian [18]
4. ChromeOS [19]
5. Liquorix [20]
6. OpenWrt [21]
7. post-factum [22]

Summary
=======
The facts are:
1. The independent lab results and the real-world applications
indicate substantial improvements; there are no known regressions.
2. Thrashing prevention, working set estimation and proactive reclaim
work out of the box; there are no equivalent solutions.
3. There is a lot of new code; no smaller changes have been
demonstrated similar effects.
Our options, accordingly, are:
1. Given the amount of evidence, the reported improvements will likely
materialize for a wide range of workloads.
2. Gauging the interest from the past discussions, the new features
will likely be put to use for both personal computers and data
centers.
3. Based on Google's track record, the new code will likely be well
maintained in the long term. It'd be more difficult if not
impossible to achieve similar effects with other approaches.
This patch (of 14):
Some architectures automatically set the accessed bit in PTEs, e.g., x86
and arm64 v8.2. On architectures that do not have this capability,
clearing the accessed bit in a PTE usually triggers a page fault following
the TLB miss of this PTE (to emulate the accessed bit).
Being aware of this capability can help make better decisions, e.g.,
whether to spread the work out over a period of time to reduce bursty page
faults when trying to clear the accessed bit in many PTEs.
Note that theoretically this capability can be unreliable, e.g.,
hotplugged CPUs might be different from builtin ones. Therefore it should
not be used in architecture-independent code that involves correctness,
e.g., to determine whether TLB flushes are required (in combination with
the accessed bit).

Likes PSI, we count submission time as thrashing delay because when the
device is congested, or the submitting cgroup IO-throttled, submission can
be a significant part of overall IO time.
Without this patch, swap thrashing through frontswap or some block

For page cache thrashing accounting, there is no suitable place to do it
in fs level likes swap_readpage(). So we have to do it in
folio_wait_bit_common().
Then for anonymous pages thrashing accounting, we have to do it in both
swap_readpage() and folio_wait_bit_common(). This likes PSI, so we should

If THP is failed to migrate due to -ENOSYS or -ENOMEM case, the THP will

Moreover we also do not need retry 10 times for -EAGAIN case for the

mm/swap: cache swap migration A/D bits support
Introduce a variable swap_migration_ad_supported to cache whether the arch
supports swap migration A/D bits.
Here one thing to mention is that SWP_MIG_TOTAL_BITS will internally
reference the other macro MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS, which is a function call on
x86 (constant on all the rest of archs).
It's safe to reference it in swapfile_init() because when reaching here
we're already during initcalls level 4 so we must have initialized 5-level
pgtable for x86_64 (right after early_identify_cpu() finishes).
- start_kernel
- setup_arch
- early_cpu_init
- get_cpu_cap --> fetch from CPUID (including X86_FEATURE_LA57)
- early_identify_cpu --> clear X86_FEATURE_LA57 (if early lvl5 not enabled (USE_EARLY_PGTABLE_L5))
- arch_call_rest_init
- rest_init
- kernel_init
- kernel_init_freeable
- do_basic_setup
- do_initcalls --> calls swapfile_init() (initcall level 4)
This should slightly speed up the migration swap entry handlings.

mm/swap: cache maximum swapfile size when init swap
We used to have swapfile_maximum_size() fetching a maximum value of
swapfile size per-arch.
As the caller of max_swapfile_size() grows, this patch introduce a
variable "swapfile_maximum_size" and cache the value of old
max_swapfile_size(), so that we don't need to calculate the value every
time.
Caching the value in swapfile_init() is safe because when reaching the
phase we should have initialized all the relevant information. Here the
major arch to take care of is x86, which defines the max swapfile size
based on L1TF mitigation.
Here both X86_BUG_L1TF or l1tf_mitigation should have been setup properly
when reaching swapfile_init(). As a reference, the code path looks like
this for x86:
- start_kernel
- setup_arch
- early_cpu_init
- early_identify_cpu --> setup X86_BUG_L1TF
- parse_early_param
- l1tf_cmdline --> set l1tf_mitigation
- check_bugs
- l1tf_select_mitigation --> set l1tf_mitigation
- arch_call_rest_init
- rest_init
- kernel_init
- kernel_init_freeable
- do_basic_setup
- do_initcalls --> calls swapfile_init() (initcall level 4)
The swapfile size only depends on swp pte format on non-x86 archs, so
caching it is safe too.
Since at it, rename max_swapfile_size() to arch_max_swapfile_size()
because arch can define its own function, so it's more straightforward to
have "arch_" as its prefix. At the meantime, export swapfile_maximum_size
to replace the old usages of max_swapfile_size().

mm: remember young/dirty bit for page migrations
When page migration happens, we always ignore the young/dirty bit settings
in the old pgtable, and marking the page as old in the new page table
using either pte_mkold() or pmd_mkold(), and keeping the pte clean.
That's fine from functional-wise, but that's not friendly to page reclaim
because the moving page can be actively accessed within the procedure.
Not to mention hardware setting the young bit can bring quite some
overhead on some systems, e.g. x86_64 needs a few hundreds nanoseconds to
set the bit. The same slowdown problem to dirty bits when the memory is
first written after page migration happened.
Actually we can easily remember the A/D bit configuration and recover the
information after the page is migrated. To achieve it, define a new set
of bits in the migration swap offset field to cache the A/D bits for old
pte. Then when removing/recovering the migration entry, we can recover
the A/D bits even if the page changed.
One thing to mention is that here we used max_swapfile_size() to detect
how many swp offset bits we have, and we'll only enable this feature if we
know the swp offset is big enough to store both the PFN value and the A/D
bits. Otherwise the A/D bits are dropped like before.

mm/swap: add swp_offset_pfn() to fetch PFN from swap entry
We've got a bunch of special swap entries that stores PFN inside the swap
offset fields. To fetch the PFN, normally the user just calls
swp_offset() assuming that'll be the PFN.
Add a helper swp_offset_pfn() to fetch the PFN instead, fetching only the
max possible length of a PFN on the host, meanwhile doing proper check
with MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS to make sure the swap offsets can actually store the
PFNs properly always using the BUILD_BUG_ON() in is_pfn_swap_entry().
One reason to do so is we never tried to sanitize whether swap offset can
really fit for storing PFN. At the meantime, this patch also prepares us
with the future possibility to store more information inside the swp
offset field, so assuming "swp_offset(entry)" to be the PFN will not stand
any more very soon.
Replace many of the swp_offset() callers to use swp_offset_pfn() where
proper. Note that many of the existing users are not candidates for the
replacement, e.g.:
(1) When the swap entry is not a pfn swap entry at all, or,
(2) when we wanna keep the whole swp_offset but only change the swp type.
For the latter, it can happen when fork() triggered on a write-migration
swap entry pte, we may want to only change the migration type from
write->read but keep the rest, so it's not "fetching PFN" but "changing
swap type only". They're left aside so that when there're more
information within the swp offset they'll be carried over naturally in
those cases.
Since at it, dropping hwpoison_entry_to_pfn() because that's exactly what
the new swp_offset_pfn() is about.

mm/x86: use SWP_TYPE_BITS in 3-level swap macros
Patch series "mm: Remember a/d bits for migration entries", v4.
Problem
=======
When migrating a page, right now we always mark the migrated page as old &
clean.
However that could lead to at least two problems:
(1) We lost the real hot/cold information while we could have persisted.
That information shouldn't change even if the backing page is changed
after the migration,
(2) There can be always extra overhead on the immediate next access to
any migrated page, because hardware MMU needs cycles to set the young
bit again for reads, and dirty bits for write, as long as the
hardware MMU supports these bits.
Many of the recent upstream works showed that (2) is not something trivial
and actually very measurable. In my test case, reading 1G chunk of memory
- jumping in page size intervals - could take 99ms just because of the
extra setting on the young bit on a generic x86_64 system, comparing to
4ms if young set.
This issue is originally reported by Andrea Arcangeli.
Solution
========
To solve this problem, this patchset tries to remember the young/dirty
bits in the migration entries and carry them over when recovering the
ptes.
We have the chance to do so because in many systems the swap offset is not
really fully used. Migration entries use swp offset to store PFN only,
while the PFN is normally not as large as swp offset and normally smaller.
It means we do have some free bits in swp offset that we can use to store
things like A/D bits, and that's how this series tried to approach this
problem.
max_swapfile_size() is used here to detect per-arch offset length in swp
entries. We'll automatically remember the A/D bits when we find that we
have enough swp offset field to keep both the PFN and the extra bits.
Since max_swapfile_size() can be slow, the last two patches cache the
results for it and also swap_migration_ad_supported as a whole.
Known Issues / TODOs
====================
We still haven't taught madvise() to recognize the new A/D bits in
migration entries, namely MADV_COLD/MADV_FREE. E.g. when MADV_COLD upon
a migration entry. It's not clear yet on whether we should clear the A
bit, or we should just drop the entry directly.
We didn't teach idle page tracking on the new migration entries, because
it'll need larger rework on the tree on rmap pgtable walk. However it
should make it already better because before this patchset page will be
old page after migration, so the series will fix potential false negative
of idle page tracking when pages were migrated before observing.
The other thing is migration A/D bits will not start to working for
private device swap entries. The code is there for completeness but since
private device swap entries do not yet have fields to store A/D bits, even
if we'll persistent A/D across present pte switching to migration entry,
we'll lose it again when the migration entry converted to private device
swap entry.
Tests
=====
After the patchset applied, the immediate read access test [1] of above 1G
chunk after migration can shrink from 99ms to 4ms. The test is done by
moving 1G pages from node 0->1->0 then read it in page size jumps. The
test is with Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v4 @ 2.20GHz.
Similar effect can also be measured when writting the memory the 1st time
after migration.
After applying the patchset, both initial immediate read/write after page
migrated will perform similarly like before migration happened.
Patch Layout
============
Patch 1-2: Cleanups from either previous versions or on swapops.h macros.
Patch 3-4: Prepare for the introduction of migration A/D bits
Patch 5: The core patch to remember young/dirty bit in swap offsets.
Patch 6-7: Cache relevant fields to make migration_entry_supports_ad() fast.

Basically the test program does the below conceptually:
1. mmap 0x2000000 - 0x21000000 as anonymous region
2. mmap io_uring SQ stuff at 0x20563000 with MAP_FIXED, io_uring_mmap()
actually remaps the pages with special PTEs
3. call MADV_COLLAPSE for 0x20000000 - 0x21000000
It actually triggered the below race:
CPU A CPU B
mmap 0x20000000 - 0x21000000 as anon
madvise_collapse is called on this area
Retrieve start and end address from the vma (NEVER updated later!)
Collapsed the first 2M area and dropped mmap_lock
Acquire mmap_lock
mmap io_uring file at 0x20563000
Release mmap_lock
Reacquire mmap_lock
revalidate vma pass since 0x20200000 + 0x200000 > 0x20563000
scan the next 2M (0x20200000 - 0x20400000), but due to whatever reason it didn't release mmap_lock
scan the 3rd 2M area (start from 0x20400000)
get into the vma created by io_uring
The hend should be updated after MADV_COLLAPSE reacquire mmap_lock since
the vma may be shrunk. We don't have to worry about shink from the other
direction since it could be caught by hugepage_vma_revalidate(). Either
no valid vma is found or the vma doesn't fit anymore.

x86/uaccess: avoid check_object_size() in copy_from_user_nmi()
The check_object_size() helper under CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY is designed
to skip any checks where the length is known at compile time as a
reasonable heuristic to avoid "likely known-good" cases. However, it can
only do this when the copy_*_user() helpers are, themselves, inline too.
Using find_vmap_area() requires taking a spinlock. The
check_object_size() helper can call find_vmap_area() when the destination
is in vmap memory. If show_regs() is called in interrupt context, it will
attempt a call to copy_from_user_nmi(), which may call check_object_size()
and then find_vmap_area(). If something in normal context happens to be
in the middle of calling find_vmap_area() (with the spinlock held), the
interrupt handler will hang forever.
The copy_from_user_nmi() call is actually being called with a fixed-size
length, so check_object_size() should never have been called in the first
place. Given the narrow constraints, just replace the
__copy_from_user_inatomic() call with an open-coded version that calls
only into the sanitizers and not check_object_size(), followed by a call
to raw_copy_from_user().

mm/page_isolation: fix isolate_single_pageblock() isolation behavior
set_migratetype_isolate() does not allow isolating MIGRATE_CMA pageblocks
unless it is used for CMA allocation. isolate_single_pageblock() did not
have the same behavior when it is used together with
set_migratetype_isolate() in start_isolate_page_range(). This allows
alloc_contig_range() with migratetype other than MIGRATE_CMA, like
MIGRATE_MOVABLE (used by alloc_contig_pages()), to isolate first and last
pageblock but fail the rest. The failure leads to changing migratetype of
the first and last pageblock to MIGRATE_MOVABLE from MIGRATE_CMA,
corrupting the CMA region. This can happen during gigantic page
allocations.
Like Doug said here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/
a3363a52-883b-dcd1-b77f-
f2bb378d6f2d@gmail.com/T/#u,
for gigantic page allocations, the user would notice no difference,
since the allocation on CMA region will fail as well as it did before.
But it might hurt the performance of device drivers that use CMA, since
CMA region size decreases.
Fix it by passing migratetype into isolate_single_pageblock(), so that
set_migratetype_isolate() used by isolate_single_pageblock() will prevent
the isolation happening.

3 cache allocation and fall back to order 0; In this case, the cache
will be smaller than the fragment, causing memory corruptions.
Prevent this from happening by checking if the newly allocated cache is
large enough for the fragment; if not, the allocation will fail and
page_frag_alloc() will return NULL.

mm: bring back update_mmu_cache() to finish_fault()
Running this test program on ARMv4 a few times (sometimes just once)
reproduces the bug.
int main()
{
unsigned i;
char paragon[SIZE];
void* ptr;
memset(paragon, 0xAA, SIZE);
ptr = mmap(NULL, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_ANON | MAP_SHARED, -1, 0);
if (ptr == MAP_FAILED) return 1;
printf("ptr = %p\n", ptr);
for (i=0;i<10000;i++){
memset(ptr, 0xAA, SIZE);
if (memcmp(ptr, paragon, SIZE)) {
printf("Unexpected bytes on iteration %u!!!\n", i);
break;
}
}
munmap(ptr, SIZE);
}
In the "ptr" buffer there appear runs of zero bytes which are aligned
by 16 and their lengths are multiple of 16.
Linux v5.11 does not have the bug, "git bisect" finds the first bad commit:
f9ce0be71d1f ("mm: Cleanup faultaround and finish_fault() codepaths")
Before the commit update_mmu_cache() was called during a call to
filemap_map_pages() as well as finish_fault(). After the commit
finish_fault() lacks it.
Bring back update_mmu_cache() to finish_fault() to fix the bug.
Also call update_mmu_tlb() only when returning VM_FAULT_NOPAGE to more
closely reproduce the code of alloc_set_pte() function that existed before
the commit.
On many platforms update_mmu_cache() is nop:
x86, see arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable
ARMv6+, see arch/arm/include/asm/tlbflush.h
So, it seems, few users ran into this bug.

powerpc/64s/radix: don't need to broadcast IPI for radix pmd collapse flush
The IPI broadcast is used to serialize against fast-GUP, but fast-GUP will
move to use RCU instead of disabling local interrupts in fast-GUP. Using
an IPI is the old-styled way of serializing against fast-GUP although it
still works as expected now.
And fast-GUP now fixed the potential race with THP collapse by checking
whether PMD is changed or not. So IPI broadcast in radix pmd collapse
flush is not necessary anymore. But it is still needed for hash TLB.

mm: gup: fix the fast GUP race against THP collapse
Since general RCU GUP fast was introduced in commit
2667f50e8b81 ("mm:
introduce a general RCU get_user_pages_fast()"), a TLB flush is no longer
sufficient to handle concurrent GUP-fast in all cases, it only handles
traditional IPI-based GUP-fast correctly. On architectures that send an
IPI broadcast on TLB flush, it works as expected. But on the
architectures that do not use IPI to broadcast TLB flush, it may have the
below race:
CPU A CPU B
THP collapse fast GUP
gup_pmd_range() <-- see valid pmd
gup_pte_range() <-- work on pte
pmdp_collapse_flush() <-- clear pmd and flush
__collapse_huge_page_isolate()
check page pinned <-- before GUP bump refcount
pin the page
check PTE <-- no change
__collapse_huge_page_copy()
copy data to huge page
ptep_clear()
install huge pmd for the huge page
return the stale page
discard the stale page
The race can be fixed by checking whether PMD is changed or not after
taking the page pin in fast GUP, just like what it does for PTE. If the
PMD is changed it means there may be parallel THP collapse, so GUP should
back off.
Also update the stale comment about serializing against fast GUP in
khugepaged.

mm: fix PageAnonExclusive clearing racing with concurrent RCU GUP-fast
commit
6c287605fd56 ("mm: remember exclusively mapped anonymous pages with
PG_anon_exclusive") made sure that when PageAnonExclusive() has to be
cleared during temporary unmapping of a page, that the PTE is
cleared/invalidated and that the TLB is flushed.
What we want to achieve in all cases is that we cannot end up with a pin on
an anonymous page that may be shared, because such pins would be
unreliable and could result in memory corruptions when the mapped page
and the pin go out of sync due to a write fault.
That TLB flush handling was inspired by an outdated comment in
mm/ksm.c:write_protect_page(), which similarly required the TLB flush in
the past to synchronize with GUP-fast. However, ever since general RCU GUP
fast was introduced in commit
2667f50e8b81 ("mm: introduce a general RCU
get_user_pages_fast()"), a TLB flush is no longer sufficient to handle
concurrent GUP-fast in all cases -- it only handles traditional IPI-based
GUP-fast correctly.
Peter Xu (thankfully) questioned whether that TLB flush is really
required. On architectures that send an IPI broadcast on TLB flush,
it works as expected. To synchronize with RCU GUP-fast properly, we're
conceptually fine, however, we have to enforce a certain memory order and
are missing memory barriers.
Let's document that, avoid the TLB flush where possible and use proper
explicit memory barriers where required. We shouldn't really care about the
additional memory barriers here, as we're not on extremely hot paths --
and we're getting rid of some TLB flushes.
We use a smp_mb() pair for handling concurrent pinning and a
smp_rmb()/smp_wmb() pair for handling the corner case of only temporary
PTE changes but permanent PageAnonExclusive changes.
One extreme example, whereby GUP-fast takes a R/O pin and KSM wants to
convert an exclusive anonymous page to a KSM page, and that page is already
mapped write-protected (-> no PTE change) would be:
Thread 0 (KSM) Thread 1 (GUP-fast)
(B1) Read the PTE
# (B2) skipped without FOLL_WRITE
(A1) Clear PTE
smp_mb()
(A2) Check pinned
(B3) Pin the mapped page
smp_mb()
(A3) Clear PageAnonExclusive
smp_wmb()
(A4) Restore PTE
(B4) Check if the PTE changed
smp_rmb()
(B5) Check PageAnonExclusive
Thread 1 will properly detect that PageAnonExclusive was cleared and
back off.
Note that we don't need a memory barrier between checking if the page is
pinned and clearing PageAnonExclusive, because stores are not
speculated.
The possible issues due to reordering are of theoretical nature so far
and attempts to reproduce the race failed.
Especially the "no PTE change" case isn't the common case, because we'd
need an exclusive anonymous page that's mapped R/O and the PTE is clean
in KSM code -- and using KSM with page pinning isn't extremely common.
Further, the clear+TLB flush we used for now implies a memory barrier.
So the problematic missing part should be the missing memory barrier
after pinning but before checking if the PTE changed.

fs/buffer: add some new buffer read helpers
Current ll_rw_block() helper is fragile because it assumes that locked
buffer means it's under IO which is submitted by some other who holds
the lock, it skip buffer if it failed to get the lock, so it's only
safe on the readahead path. Unfortunately, now that most filesystems
still use this helper mistakenly on the sync metadata read path. There
is no guarantee that the one who holds the buffer lock always submit IO
(e.g. buffer_migrate_folio_norefs() after commit
88dbcbb3a484 ("blkdev:
avoid migration stalls for blkdev pages"), it could lead to false
positive -EIO when submitting reading IO.
This patch add some friendly buffer read helpers to prepare replacing
ll_rw_block() and similar calls. We can only call bh_readahead_[]
helpers for the readahead paths.

fs/buffer: remove __breadahead_gfp()
Patch series "fs/buffer: remove ll_rw_block()", v2.
ll_rw_block() will skip locked buffer before submitting IO, it assumes
that locked buffer means it is under IO. This assumption is not always
true because we cannot guarantee every buffer lock path would submit IO.
After commit
88dbcbb3a484 ("blkdev: avoid migration stalls for blkdev
pages"), buffer_migrate_folio_norefs() becomes one exceptional case, and
there may be others. So ll_rw_block() is not safe on the sync read path,
we could get false positive EIO return value when filesystem reading
metadata. It seems that it could be only used on the readahead path.
Unfortunately, many filesystem misuse the ll_rw_block() on the sync read
path. This patch set just remove ll_rw_block() and add new friendly
helpers, which could prevent false positive EIO on the read metadata path.
Thanks for the suggestion from Jan, the original discussion is at [1].
patch 1: remove unused helpers in fs/buffer.c
