slob: initial NUMA support
This adds preliminary NUMA support to SLOB, primarily aimed at systems with
small nodes (tested all the way down to a 128kB SRAM block), whether
asymmetric or otherwise.
We follow the same conventions as SLAB/SLUB, preferring current node
placement for new pages, or with explicit placement, if a node has been
specified. Presently on UP NUMA this has the side-effect of preferring
node#0 allocations (since numa_node_id() == 0, though this could be
reworked if we could hand off a pfn to determine node placement), so
single-CPU NUMA systems will want to place smaller nodes further out in
terms of node id. Once a page has been bound to a node (via explicit node
id typing), we only do block allocations from partial free pages that have
a matching node id in the page flags.
The current implementation does have some scalability problems, in that all
partial free pages are tracked in the global freelist (with contention due
to the single spinlock). However, these are things that are being reworked
for SMP scalability first, while things like per-node freelists can easily
be built on top of this sort of functionality once it's been added.

consumption improvement.
Then, we don't encode seperate size and next fields into each slob block,
rather we use the sign bit to distinguish between "size" or "next". Then
size 1 blocks contain a "next" offset, and others contain the "size" in
the first unit and "next" in the second unit.
- This allows minimum slob allocation alignment to go from 8 bytes to 2
bytes on 32-bit and 12 bytes to 2 bytes on 64-bit. In practice, it is
best to align them to word size, however some architectures (eg. cris)
could gain space savings from turning off this extra alignment.
Then, make kmalloc use its own slob_block at the front of the allocation
in order to encode allocation size, rather than rely on not overwriting
slob's existing header block.
- This reduces kmalloc allocation overhead similarly to alignment reductions.
- Decouples kmalloc layer from the slob allocator.
Then, add a page flag specific to slob pages.
- This means kfree of a page aligned slob block doesn't have to traverse
the bigblock list.
I would get benchmarks, but my test box's network doesn't come up with
slob before this patch. I think something is timing out. Anyway, things
are faster after the patch.
Code size goes up about 1K, however dynamic memory usage _should_ be
lower even on relatively small memory systems.
Future todo item is to restore the cyclic free list search, rather than
to always begin at the start.

mm: rename alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node()
alloc_pages_exact_node() was introduced in commit 6484eb3e2a81 ("page
allocator: do not check NUMA node ID when the caller knows the node is
valid") as an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node(), that doesn't
fallback to current node for nid == NUMA_NO_NODE. Unfortunately the
name of the function can easily suggest that the allocation is
restricted to the given node and fails otherwise. In truth, the node is
only preferred, unless __GFP_THISNODE is passed among the gfp flags.
The misleading name has lead to mistakes in the past, see for example
commits 5265047ac301 ("mm, thp: really limit transparent hugepage
allocation to local node") and b360edb43f8e ("mm, mempolicy:
migrate_to_node should only migrate to node").
Another issue with the name is that there's a family of
alloc_pages_exact*() functions where 'exact' means exact size (instead
of page order), which leads to more confusion.
To prevent further mistakes, this patch effectively renames
alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node() to better convey that
it's an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node() not intended for general
usage. Both functions get described in comments.
It has been also considered to really provide a convenience function for
allocations restricted to a node, but the major opinion seems to be that
__GFP_THISNODE already provides that functionality and we shouldn't
duplicate the API needlessly. The number of users would be small
anyway.
Existing callers of alloc_pages_exact_node() are simply converted to
call __alloc_pages_node(), with the exception of sba_alloc_coherent()
which open-codes the check for NUMA_NO_NODE, so it is converted to use
alloc_pages_node() instead. This means it no longer performs some
VM_BUG_ON checks, and since the current check for nid in
alloc_pages_node() uses a 'nid < 0' comparison (which includes
NUMA_NO_NODE), it may hide wrong values which would be previously
exposed.
Both differences will be rectified by the next patch.
To sum up, this patch makes no functional changes, except temporarily
hiding potentially buggy callers. Restricting the checks in
alloc_pages_node() is left for the next patch which can in turn expose
more existing buggy callers.

slob: rework freelist handling
Improve slob by turning the freelist into a list of pages using struct page
fields, then each page has a singly linked freelist of slob blocks via a
pointer in the struct page.
- The first benefit is that the slob freelists can be indexed by a smaller
type (2 bytes, if the PAGE_SIZE is reasonable).
- Next is that freeing is much quicker because it does not have to traverse
the entire freelist. Allocation can be slightly faster too, because we can
skip almost-full freelist pages completely.
- Slob pages are then freed immediately when they become empty, rather than
having a periodic timer try to free them. This gives efficiency and memory
consumption improvement.
Then, we don't encode seperate size and next fields into each slob block,
rather we use the sign bit to distinguish between "size" or "next". Then
size 1 blocks contain a "next" offset, and others contain the "size" in
the first unit and "next" in the second unit.
- This allows minimum slob allocation alignment to go from 8 bytes to 2
bytes on 32-bit and 12 bytes to 2 bytes on 64-bit. In practice, it is
best to align them to word size, however some architectures (eg. cris)
could gain space savings from turning off this extra alignment.
Then, make kmalloc use its own slob_block at the front of the allocation
in order to encode allocation size, rather than rely on not overwriting
slob's existing header block.
- This reduces kmalloc allocation overhead similarly to alignment reductions.
- Decouples kmalloc layer from the slob allocator.
Then, add a page flag specific to slob pages.
- This means kfree of a page aligned slob block doesn't have to traverse
the bigblock list.
I would get benchmarks, but my test box's network doesn't come up with
slob before this patch. I think something is timing out. Anyway, things

slob: rework freelist handling
Improve slob by turning the freelist into a list of pages using struct page
fields, then each page has a singly linked freelist of slob blocks via a
pointer in the struct page.
- The first benefit is that the slob freelists can be indexed by a smaller
type (2 bytes, if the PAGE_SIZE is reasonable).
- Next is that freeing is much quicker because it does not have to traverse
the entire freelist. Allocation can be slightly faster too, because we can
skip almost-full freelist pages completely.
- Slob pages are then freed immediately when they become empty, rather than
having a periodic timer try to free them. This gives efficiency and memory
consumption improvement.
Then, we don't encode seperate size and next fields into each slob block,
rather we use the sign bit to distinguish between "size" or "next". Then
size 1 blocks contain a "next" offset, and others contain the "size" in
the first unit and "next" in the second unit.
- This allows minimum slob allocation alignment to go from 8 bytes to 2
bytes on 32-bit and 12 bytes to 2 bytes on 64-bit. In practice, it is
best to align them to word size, however some architectures (eg. cris)
could gain space savings from turning off this extra alignment.
Then, make kmalloc use its own slob_block at the front of the allocation
in order to encode allocation size, rather than rely on not overwriting
slob's existing header block.
- This reduces kmalloc allocation overhead similarly to alignment reductions.
- Decouples kmalloc layer from the slob allocator.
Then, add a page flag specific to slob pages.
- This means kfree of a page aligned slob block doesn't have to traverse
the bigblock list.
I would get benchmarks, but my test box's network doesn't come up with
slob before this patch. I think something is timing out. Anyway, things
are faster after the patch.
Code size goes up about 1K, however dynamic memory usage _should_ be
lower even on relatively small memory systems.
Future todo item is to restore the cyclic free list search, rather than
to always begin at the start.

slob: rework freelist handling
Improve slob by turning the freelist into a list of pages using struct page
fields, then each page has a singly linked freelist of slob blocks via a
pointer in the struct page.
- The first benefit is that the slob freelists can be indexed by a smaller
type (2 bytes, if the PAGE_SIZE is reasonable).
- Next is that freeing is much quicker because it does not have to traverse
the entire freelist. Allocation can be slightly faster too, because we can
skip almost-full freelist pages completely.
- Slob pages are then freed immediately when they become empty, rather than
having a periodic timer try to free them. This gives efficiency and memory
consumption improvement.
Then, we don't encode seperate size and next fields into each slob block,
rather we use the sign bit to distinguish between "size" or "next". Then
size 1 blocks contain a "next" offset, and others contain the "size" in
the first unit and "next" in the second unit.
- This allows minimum slob allocation alignment to go from 8 bytes to 2
bytes on 32-bit and 12 bytes to 2 bytes on 64-bit. In practice, it is
best to align them to word size, however some architectures (eg. cris)
could gain space savings from turning off this extra alignment.
Then, make kmalloc use its own slob_block at the front of the allocation
in order to encode allocation size, rather than rely on not overwriting
slob's existing header block.
- This reduces kmalloc allocation overhead similarly to alignment reductions.
- Decouples kmalloc layer from the slob allocator.
Then, add a page flag specific to slob pages.
- This means kfree of a page aligned slob block doesn't have to traverse
the bigblock list.
I would get benchmarks, but my test box's network doesn't come up with
slob before this patch. I think something is timing out. Anyway, things
are faster after the patch.
Code size goes up about 1K, however dynamic memory usage _should_ be
lower even on relatively small memory systems.
Future todo item is to restore the cyclic free list search, rather than
to always begin at the start.

slob: initial NUMA support
This adds preliminary NUMA support to SLOB, primarily aimed at systems with
small nodes (tested all the way down to a 128kB SRAM block), whether
asymmetric or otherwise.
We follow the same conventions as SLAB/SLUB, preferring current node
placement for new pages, or with explicit placement, if a node has been
specified. Presently on UP NUMA this has the side-effect of preferring
node#0 allocations (since numa_node_id() == 0, though this could be
reworked if we could hand off a pfn to determine node placement), so
single-CPU NUMA systems will want to place smaller nodes further out in
terms of node id. Once a page has been bound to a node (via explicit node
id typing), we only do block allocations from partial free pages that have
a matching node id in the page flags.
The current implementation does have some scalability problems, in that all
partial free pages are tracked in the global freelist (with contention due
to the single spinlock). However, these are things that are being reworked
for SMP scalability first, while things like per-node freelists can easily
be built on top of this sort of functionality once it's been added.

mm: rename alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node()
alloc_pages_exact_node() was introduced in commit 6484eb3e2a81 ("page
allocator: do not check NUMA node ID when the caller knows the node is
valid") as an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node(), that doesn't
fallback to current node for nid == NUMA_NO_NODE. Unfortunately the
name of the function can easily suggest that the allocation is
restricted to the given node and fails otherwise. In truth, the node is
only preferred, unless __GFP_THISNODE is passed among the gfp flags.
The misleading name has lead to mistakes in the past, see for example
commits 5265047ac301 ("mm, thp: really limit transparent hugepage
allocation to local node") and b360edb43f8e ("mm, mempolicy:
migrate_to_node should only migrate to node").
Another issue with the name is that there's a family of
alloc_pages_exact*() functions where 'exact' means exact size (instead
of page order), which leads to more confusion.
To prevent further mistakes, this patch effectively renames
alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node() to better convey that
it's an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node() not intended for general
usage. Both functions get described in comments.
It has been also considered to really provide a convenience function for
allocations restricted to a node, but the major opinion seems to be that
__GFP_THISNODE already provides that functionality and we shouldn't
duplicate the API needlessly. The number of users would be small
anyway.
Existing callers of alloc_pages_exact_node() are simply converted to
call __alloc_pages_node(), with the exception of sba_alloc_coherent()
which open-codes the check for NUMA_NO_NODE, so it is converted to use
alloc_pages_node() instead. This means it no longer performs some
VM_BUG_ON checks, and since the current check for nid in
alloc_pages_node() uses a 'nid < 0' comparison (which includes
NUMA_NO_NODE), it may hide wrong values which would be previously
exposed.
Both differences will be rectified by the next patch.
To sum up, this patch makes no functional changes, except temporarily
hiding potentially buggy callers. Restricting the checks in
alloc_pages_node() is left for the next patch which can in turn expose
more existing buggy callers.

slob: initial NUMA support
This adds preliminary NUMA support to SLOB, primarily aimed at systems with
small nodes (tested all the way down to a 128kB SRAM block), whether
asymmetric or otherwise.
We follow the same conventions as SLAB/SLUB, preferring current node
placement for new pages, or with explicit placement, if a node has been
specified. Presently on UP NUMA this has the side-effect of preferring
node#0 allocations (since numa_node_id() == 0, though this could be
reworked if we could hand off a pfn to determine node placement), so
single-CPU NUMA systems will want to place smaller nodes further out in
terms of node id. Once a page has been bound to a node (via explicit node
id typing), we only do block allocations from partial free pages that have
a matching node id in the page flags.
The current implementation does have some scalability problems, in that all
partial free pages are tracked in the global freelist (with contention due
to the single spinlock). However, these are things that are being reworked
for SMP scalability first, while things like per-node freelists can easily
be built on top of this sort of functionality once it's been added.

slob: rework freelist handling
Improve slob by turning the freelist into a list of pages using struct page
fields, then each page has a singly linked freelist of slob blocks via a
pointer in the struct page.
- The first benefit is that the slob freelists can be indexed by a smaller
type (2 bytes, if the PAGE_SIZE is reasonable).
- Next is that freeing is much quicker because it does not have to traverse
the entire freelist. Allocation can be slightly faster too, because we can
skip almost-full freelist pages completely.
- Slob pages are then freed immediately when they become empty, rather than
having a periodic timer try to free them. This gives efficiency and memory
consumption improvement.
Then, we don't encode seperate size and next fields into each slob block,
rather we use the sign bit to distinguish between "size" or "next". Then
size 1 blocks contain a "next" offset, and others contain the "size" in
the first unit and "next" in the second unit.
- This allows minimum slob allocation alignment to go from 8 bytes to 2
bytes on 32-bit and 12 bytes to 2 bytes on 64-bit. In practice, it is
best to align them to word size, however some architectures (eg. cris)
could gain space savings from turning off this extra alignment.
Then, make kmalloc use its own slob_block at the front of the allocation
in order to encode allocation size, rather than rely on not overwriting
slob's existing header block.
- This reduces kmalloc allocation overhead similarly to alignment reductions.
- Decouples kmalloc layer from the slob allocator.
Then, add a page flag specific to slob pages.
- This means kfree of a page aligned slob block doesn't have to traverse
the bigblock list.
I would get benchmarks, but my test box's network doesn't come up with
slob before this patch. I think something is timing out. Anyway, things
are faster after the patch.
Code size goes up about 1K, however dynamic memory usage _should_ be
lower even on relatively small memory systems.
Future todo item is to restore the cyclic free list search, rather than
to always begin at the start.

in order to encode allocation size, rather than rely on not overwriting
slob's existing header block.
- This reduces kmalloc allocation overhead similarly to alignment reductions.
- Decouples kmalloc layer from the slob allocator.
Then, add a page flag specific to slob pages.
- This means kfree of a page aligned slob block doesn't have to traverse
the bigblock list.
I would get benchmarks, but my test box's network doesn't come up with
slob before this patch. I think something is timing out. Anyway, things
are faster after the patch.
Code size goes up about 1K, however dynamic memory usage _should_ be
lower even on relatively small memory systems.
Future todo item is to restore the cyclic free list search, rather than
to always begin at the start.

slob: rework freelist handling
Improve slob by turning the freelist into a list of pages using struct page
fields, then each page has a singly linked freelist of slob blocks via a
pointer in the struct page.
- The first benefit is that the slob freelists can be indexed by a smaller
type (2 bytes, if the PAGE_SIZE is reasonable).
- Next is that freeing is much quicker because it does not have to traverse
the entire freelist. Allocation can be slightly faster too, because we can
skip almost-full freelist pages completely.
- Slob pages are then freed immediately when they become empty, rather than
having a periodic timer try to free them. This gives efficiency and memory
consumption improvement.
Then, we don't encode seperate size and next fields into each slob block,
rather we use the sign bit to distinguish between "size" or "next". Then
size 1 blocks contain a "next" offset, and others contain the "size" in
the first unit and "next" in the second unit.
- This allows minimum slob allocation alignment to go from 8 bytes to 2
bytes on 32-bit and 12 bytes to 2 bytes on 64-bit. In practice, it is
best to align them to word size, however some architectures (eg. cris)
could gain space savings from turning off this extra alignment.
Then, make kmalloc use its own slob_block at the front of the allocation
in order to encode allocation size, rather than rely on not overwriting
slob's existing header block.
- This reduces kmalloc allocation overhead similarly to alignment reductions.
- Decouples kmalloc layer from the slob allocator.

slob: initial NUMA support
This adds preliminary NUMA support to SLOB, primarily aimed at systems with
small nodes (tested all the way down to a 128kB SRAM block), whether
asymmetric or otherwise.
We follow the same conventions as SLAB/SLUB, preferring current node
placement for new pages, or with explicit placement, if a node has been
specified. Presently on UP NUMA this has the side-effect of preferring
node#0 allocations (since numa_node_id() == 0, though this could be
reworked if we could hand off a pfn to determine node placement), so
single-CPU NUMA systems will want to place smaller nodes further out in
terms of node id. Once a page has been bound to a node (via explicit node
id typing), we only do block allocations from partial free pages that have
a matching node id in the page flags.
The current implementation does have some scalability problems, in that all
partial free pages are tracked in the global freelist (with contention due
to the single spinlock). However, these are things that are being reworked
for SMP scalability first, while things like per-node freelists can easily
be built on top of this sort of functionality once it's been added.

slob: rework freelist handling
Improve slob by turning the freelist into a list of pages using struct page
fields, then each page has a singly linked freelist of slob blocks via a
pointer in the struct page.
- The first benefit is that the slob freelists can be indexed by a smaller
type (2 bytes, if the PAGE_SIZE is reasonable).
- Next is that freeing is much quicker because it does not have to traverse
the entire freelist. Allocation can be slightly faster too, because we can
skip almost-full freelist pages completely.
- Slob pages are then freed immediately when they become empty, rather than
having a periodic timer try to free them. This gives efficiency and memory
consumption improvement.
Then, we don't encode seperate size and next fields into each slob block,
rather we use the sign bit to distinguish between "size" or "next". Then
size 1 blocks contain a "next" offset, and others contain the "size" in
the first unit and "next" in the second unit.
- This allows minimum slob allocation alignment to go from 8 bytes to 2
bytes on 32-bit and 12 bytes to 2 bytes on 64-bit. In practice, it is
best to align them to word size, however some architectures (eg. cris)
could gain space savings from turning off this extra alignment.
Then, make kmalloc use its own slob_block at the front of the allocation
in order to encode allocation size, rather than rely on not overwriting
slob's existing header block.
- This reduces kmalloc allocation overhead similarly to alignment reductions.
- Decouples kmalloc layer from the slob allocator.
Then, add a page flag specific to slob pages.
- This means kfree of a page aligned slob block doesn't have to traverse
the bigblock list.
I would get benchmarks, but my test box's network doesn't come up with
slob before this patch. I think something is timing out. Anyway, things
are faster after the patch.
Code size goes up about 1K, however dynamic memory usage _should_ be
lower even on relatively small memory systems.
Future todo item is to restore the cyclic free list search, rather than
to always begin at the start.

- Slob pages are then freed immediately when they become empty, rather than
having a periodic timer try to free them. This gives efficiency and memory
consumption improvement.
Then, we don't encode seperate size and next fields into each slob block,
rather we use the sign bit to distinguish between "size" or "next". Then
size 1 blocks contain a "next" offset, and others contain the "size" in
the first unit and "next" in the second unit.
- This allows minimum slob allocation alignment to go from 8 bytes to 2
bytes on 32-bit and 12 bytes to 2 bytes on 64-bit. In practice, it is
best to align them to word size, however some architectures (eg. cris)
could gain space savings from turning off this extra alignment.
Then, make kmalloc use its own slob_block at the front of the allocation
in order to encode allocation size, rather than rely on not overwriting
slob's existing header block.
- This reduces kmalloc allocation overhead similarly to alignment reductions.
- Decouples kmalloc layer from the slob allocator.
Then, add a page flag specific to slob pages.
- This means kfree of a page aligned slob block doesn't have to traverse
the bigblock list.
I would get benchmarks, but my test box's network doesn't come up with
slob before this patch. I think something is timing out. Anyway, things
are faster after the patch.
Code size goes up about 1K, however dynamic memory usage _should_ be
lower even on relatively small memory systems.
Future todo item is to restore the cyclic free list search, rather than
to always begin at the start.

slob: rework freelist handling
Improve slob by turning the freelist into a list of pages using struct page
fields, then each page has a singly linked freelist of slob blocks via a
pointer in the struct page.
- The first benefit is that the slob freelists can be indexed by a smaller
type (2 bytes, if the PAGE_SIZE is reasonable).
- Next is that freeing is much quicker because it does not have to traverse
the entire freelist. Allocation can be slightly faster too, because we can
skip almost-full freelist pages completely.
- Slob pages are then freed immediately when they become empty, rather than
having a periodic timer try to free them. This gives efficiency and memory
consumption improvement.
Then, we don't encode seperate size and next fields into each slob block,
rather we use the sign bit to distinguish between "size" or "next". Then

Here is another version, with the incremental patch rolled up, and
added reclaim context annotation to kswapd, and allocation tracing
to slab allocators (which may only ever reach the page allocator
in rare cases, so it is good to put annotations here too).
Haven't tested this version as such, but it should be getting closer
to merge worthy ;)
--
After noticing some code in mm/filemap.c accidentally perform a __GFP_FS
allocation when it should not have been, I thought it might be a good idea to
try to catch this kind of thing with lockdep.
I coded up a little idea that seems to work. Unfortunately the system has to
actually be in __GFP_FS page reclaim, then take the lock, before it will mark
it. But at least that might still be some orders of magnitude more common
(and more debuggable) than an actual deadlock condition, so we have some
improvement I hope (the concept is no less complete than discovery of a lock's
interrupt contexts).
I guess we could even do the same thing with __GFP_IO (normal reclaim), and
even GFP_NOIO locks too... but filesystems will have the most locks and fiddly
code paths, so let's start there and see how it goes.
It *seems* to work. I did a quick test.

slob: initial NUMA support
This adds preliminary NUMA support to SLOB, primarily aimed at systems with
small nodes (tested all the way down to a 128kB SRAM block), whether
asymmetric or otherwise.
We follow the same conventions as SLAB/SLUB, preferring current node
placement for new pages, or with explicit placement, if a node has been
specified. Presently on UP NUMA this has the side-effect of preferring
node#0 allocations (since numa_node_id() == 0, though this could be
reworked if we could hand off a pfn to determine node placement), so
single-CPU NUMA systems will want to place smaller nodes further out in
terms of node id. Once a page has been bound to a node (via explicit node
id typing), we only do block allocations from partial free pages that have
a matching node id in the page flags.
The current implementation does have some scalability problems, in that all
partial free pages are tracked in the global freelist (with contention due
to the single spinlock). However, these are things that are being reworked
for SMP scalability first, while things like per-node freelists can easily
be built on top of this sort of functionality once it's been added.

This breaks Pekka's slab/next tree with this:
mm/slob.c: In function '__kmalloc_node_track_caller':
mm/slob.c:488: error: 'gfp' undeclared (first use in this function)
mm/slob.c:488: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
mm/slob.c:488: error: for each function it appears in.)
mm, slob: fix build breakage in __kmalloc_node_track_caller
"mm, slob: Add support for kmalloc_track_caller()" breaks the build
because gfp is undeclared. Fix it.

slob: initial NUMA support
This adds preliminary NUMA support to SLOB, primarily aimed at systems with
small nodes (tested all the way down to a 128kB SRAM block), whether
asymmetric or otherwise.
We follow the same conventions as SLAB/SLUB, preferring current node
placement for new pages, or with explicit placement, if a node has been
specified. Presently on UP NUMA this has the side-effect of preferring
node#0 allocations (since numa_node_id() == 0, though this could be
reworked if we could hand off a pfn to determine node placement), so
single-CPU NUMA systems will want to place smaller nodes further out in
terms of node id. Once a page has been bound to a node (via explicit node
id typing), we only do block allocations from partial free pages that have
a matching node id in the page flags.
The current implementation does have some scalability problems, in that all
partial free pages are tracked in the global freelist (with contention due
to the single spinlock). However, these are things that are being reworked
for SMP scalability first, while things like per-node freelists can easily
be built on top of this sort of functionality once it's been added.
