Due to either a fast search of the free list or a linear scan, it is
possible for multiple compaction instances to pick the same pageblock
for migration. This is lucky for one scanner and increased scanning for
all the others. It also allows a race between requests on which first
allocates the resulting free block.
This patch tests and updates the pageblock skip for the migration
scanner carefully. When isolating a block, it will check and skip if
the block is already in use. Once the zone lock is acquired, it will be
rechecked so that only one scanner can set the pageblock skip for
exclusive use. Any scanner contending will continue with a linear scan.
The skip bit is still set if no pages can be isolated in a range. While
this may result in redundant scanning, it avoids unnecessarily acquiring
the zone lock when there are no suitable migration sources.

The migration scanner is a linear scan of a zone with a potentiall large
search space. Furthermore, many pageblocks are unusable such as those
filled with reserved pages or partially filled with pages that cannot
migrate. These still get scanned in the common case of allocating a THP
and the cost accumulates.
The patch uses a partial search of the free lists to locate a migration
source candidate that is marked as MOVABLE when allocating a THP. It
prefers picking a block with a larger number of free pages already on
the basis that there are fewer pages to migrate to free the entire
block. The lowest PFN found during searches is tracked as the basis of
the start for the linear search after the first search of the free list
fails. After the search, the free list is shuffled so that the next
search will not encounter the same page. If the search fails then the
subsequent searches will be shorter and the linear scanner is used.
If this search fails, or if the request is for a small or
unmovable/reclaimable allocation then the linear scanner is still used.
It is somewhat pointless to use the list search in those cases. Small
free pages must be used for the search and there is no guarantee that
movable pages are located within that block that are contiguous.

When pageblocks get fragmented, watermarks are artifically boosted to
reclaim pages to avoid further fragmentation events. However,
compaction is often either fragmentation-neutral or moving movable pages
away from unmovable/reclaimable pages. As the true watermarks are
preserved, allow compaction to ignore the boost factor.
The expected impact is very slight as the main benefit is that
compaction is slightly more likely to succeed when the system has been
fragmented very recently. On both 1-socket and 2-socket machines for
THP-intensive allocation during fragmentation the success rate was
increased by less than 1% which is marginal. However, detailed tracing
indicated that failure of migration due to a premature ENOMEM triggered
by watermark checks were eliminated.

When compaction is finishing, it uses a flag to ensure the pageblock is
complete but it makes sense to always complete migration of a pageblock.
Minimally, skip information is based on a pageblock and partially
scanned pageblocks may incur more scanning in the future. The pageblock
skip handling also becomes more strict later in the series and the hint
is more useful if a complete pageblock was always scanned.
The potentially impacts latency as more scanning is done but it's not a
consistent win or loss as the scanning is not always a high percentage
of the pageblock and sometimes it is offset by future reductions in
scanning. Hence, the results are not presented this time due to a
misleading mix of gains/losses without any clear pattern. However, full
scanning of the pageblock is important for later patches.

Pages with no migration handler use a fallback handler which sometimes
works and sometimes persistently retries. A historical example was
blockdev pages but there are others such as odd refcounting when
page->private is used. These are retried multiple times which is
wasteful during compaction so this patch will fail migration faster
unless the caller specifies MIGRATE_SYNC.
This is not expected to help THP allocation success rates but it did
reduce latencies very slightly in some cases.

Patch series "Increase success rates and reduce latency of compaction", v3.
This series reduces scan rates and success rates of compaction,
primarily by using the free lists to shorten scans, better controlling
of skip information and whether multiple scanners can target the same
block and capturing pageblocks before being stolen by parallel requests.
The series is based on mmotm from January 9th, 2019 with the previous
compaction series reverted.
I'm mostly using thpscale to measure the impact of the series. The
benchmark creates a large file, maps it, faults it, punches holes in the
mapping so that the virtual address space is fragmented and then tries
to allocate THP. It re-executes for different numbers of threads. From
a fragmentation perspective, the workload is relatively benign but it
does stress compaction.
The overall impact on latencies for a 1-socket machine is

Percentage huge-32 80.53 ( 0.00%) 97.06 ( 20.53%)
That's a nearly perfect allocation success rate.
The biggest impact is on the scan rates
Compaction migrate scanned 55893379 19341254
Compaction free scanned 474739990 11903963
The number of pages scanned for migration was reduced by 65% and the
free scanner was reduced by 97.5%. So much less work in exchange for
lower latency and better success rates.
The series was also evaluated using a workload that heavily fragments
memory but the benefits there are also significant, albeit not
presented.
It was commented that we should be rethinking scanning entirely and to a
large extent I agree. However, to achieve that you need a lot of this
series in place first so it's best to make the linear scanners as best
as possible before ripping them out.
This patch (of 22):
The isolate and migrate scanners should never isolate more than a
pageblock of pages so unsigned int is sufficient saving 8 bytes on a
64-bit build.

GFP_KERNEL is one of the most used constant but on archs like arm with
fixed length instruction some constants are more equal than the others.
Constants with tightly packed bits can be injected directly into
instruction stream:
0: e3a00d33 mov r0, #3264 ; 0xcc0
Others require multiple instructions or even loading out of instruction
stream:
0: e3a000c0 mov r0, #192 ; 0xc0
4: e3400060 movt r0, #96 ; 0x60
Shuffle GFP_* flags so that GFP_KERNEL/GFP_ATOMIC + __GFP_ZERO bits are
close to each other.
Savings on arm configs are ~0.1%.

Swap readahead would read in a few pages regardless if the underlying
device is busy or not. It may incur long waiting time if the device is
congested, and it may also exacerbate the congestion.
Use inode_read_congested() to check if the underlying device is busy or
not like what file page readahead does. Get inode from
swap_info_struct.
Although we can add inode information in swap_address_space
(address_space->host), it may lead some unexpected side effect, i.e. it
may break mapping_cap_account_dirty(). Using inode from
swap_info_struct seems simple and good enough.
Just does the check in vma_cluster_readahead() since
swap_vma_readahead() is just used for non-rotational device which much
less likely has congestion than traditional HDD.
Although swap slots may be consecutive on swap partition, it still may
be fragmented on swap file. This check would help to reduce excessive
stall for such case.
The test with page_fault1 of will-it-scale (sometimes tracing may just
show runtest.py that is the wrapper script of page_fault1), which
basically launches NR_CPU threads to generate 128MB anonymous pages for
each thread, on my virtual machine with congested HDD shows long tail
latency is reduced significantly.

After we establish a reference on the page, we check the pointer
continues to be in the correct position in i_pages. Checking
page->index afterwards is unnecessary; if it were to change, then the
pointer to it from the page cache would also move. The check used to be
done before grabbing a reference on the page which was racy (see commit
9cbb4cb21b ("mm: find_get_pages_contig fixlet")), but nobody noticed
that moving the check after grabbing the reference was redundant.

One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding
the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along
with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example:
struct foo {
int stuff;
void *entry[];
};
instance = kmalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + sizeof(void *) * count, GFP_KERNEL);
Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can
now use the new struct_size() helper:
instance = kmalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL);
This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

In the current implementation, there are two places to isolate a range
of page: __offline_pages() and alloc_contig_range(). During this
procedure, it will drain pages on pcp list.
Below is a brief call flow:
__offline_pages()/alloc_contig_range()
start_isolate_page_range()
set_migratetype_isolate()
drain_all_pages()
drain_all_pages() <--- A
This snippet shows the current logic is isolate and drain pcp list for
each pageblock and drain pcp list again for the whole range.
start_isolate_page_range is responsible for isolating the given pfn
range. One part of that job is to make sure that also pages that are on
the allocator pcp lists are properly isolated. Otherwise they could be
reused and the range wouldn't be completely isolated until the memory is
freed back. While there is no strict guarantee here because pages might
get allocated at any time before drain_all_pages is called there doesn't
seem to be any strong demand for such a guarantee.
In any case, draining is already done at the isolation level and there
is no need to do it again later by start_isolate_page_range callers
(memory hotplug and CMA allocator currently). Therefore remove
pointless draining in existing callers to make the code more clear and
functionally correct.

Let arm64 subscribe to the previously added framework in which
architecture can inform whether a given huge page size is supported for
migration. This just overrides the default function
arch_hugetlb_migration_supported() and enables migration for all
possible HugeTLB page sizes on arm64.
With this, HugeTLB migration support on arm64 now covers all possible
HugeTLB options.

Architectures like arm64 have HugeTLB page sizes which are different
than generic sizes at PMD, PUD, PGD level and implemented via contiguous
bits. At present these special size HugeTLB pages cannot be identified
through macros like (PMD|PUD|PGDIR)_SHIFT and hence chosen not be
migrated.
Enabling migration support for these special HugeTLB page sizes along
with the generic ones (PMD|PUD|PGD) would require identifying all of
them on a given platform. A platform specific hook can precisely
enumerate all huge page sizes supported for migration. Instead of
comparing against standard huge page orders let
hugetlb_migration_support() function call a platform hook
arch_hugetlb_migration_support(). Default definition for the platform
hook maintains existing semantics which checks standard huge page order.
But an architecture can choose to override the default and provide
support for a comprehensive set of huge page sizes.

Patch series "arm64/mm: Enable HugeTLB migration", v4.
This patch series enables HugeTLB migration support for all supported
huge page sizes at all levels including contiguous bit implementation.
Following HugeTLB migration support matrix has been enabled with this
patch series. All permutations have been tested except for the 16GB.

4K: 64K 2M 32M 1G

First the series adds migration support for PUD based huge pages. It
then adds a platform specific hook to query an architecture if a given
huge page size is supported for migration while also providing a default
fallback option preserving the existing semantics which just checks for
(PMD|PUD|PGDIR)_SHIFT macros. The last two patches enables HugeTLB
migration on arm64 and subscribe to this new platform specific hook by
defining an override.
The second patch differentiates between movability and migratability
aspects of huge pages and implements hugepage_movable_supported() which
can then be used during allocation to decide whether to place the huge
page in movable zone or not.
This patch (of 5):
During huge page allocation it's migratability is checked to determine
if it should be placed under movable zones with GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE.
But the movability aspect of the huge page could depend on other factors
than just migratability. Movability in itself is a distinct property
which should not be tied with migratability alone.
This differentiates these two and implements an enhanced movability check
which also considers huge page size to determine if it is feasible to be
placed under a movable zone. At present it just checks for gigantic pages
but going forward it can incorporate other enhanced checks.

This adds a new kernel module for analysis of vmalloc allocator. It is
only enabled as a module. There are two main reasons this module should
be used for: performance evaluation and stressing of vmalloc subsystem.
It consists of several test cases. As of now there are 8. The module
has five parameters we can specify to change its the behaviour.
1) run_test_mask - set of tests to be run
id: 1, name: fix_size_alloc_test
id: 2, name: full_fit_alloc_test
id: 4, name: long_busy_list_alloc_test
id: 8, name: random_size_alloc_test
id: 16, name: fix_align_alloc_test
id: 32, name: random_size_align_alloc_test
id: 64, name: align_shift_alloc_test
id: 128, name: pcpu_alloc_test
By default all tests are in run test mask. If you want to select some
specific tests it is possible to pass the mask. For example for first,
second and fourth tests we go 11 value.
2) test_repeat_count - how many times each test should be repeated
By default it is one time per test. It is possible to pass any number.
As high the value is the test duration gets increased.
3) test_loop_count - internal test loop counter. By default it is set
to 1000000.
4) single_cpu_test - use one CPU to run the tests
By default this parameter is set to false. It means that all online
CPUs execute tests. By setting it to 1, the tests are executed by
first online CPU only.
5) sequential_test_order - run tests in sequential order
By default this parameter is set to false. It means that before running
tests the order is shuffled. It is possible to make it sequential, just
set it to 1.
Performance analysis:
In order to evaluate performance of vmalloc allocations, usually it
makes sense to use only one CPU that runs tests, use sequential order,
number of repeat tests can be different as well as set of test mask.
For example if we want to run all tests, to use one CPU and repeat each
test 3 times. Insert the module passing following parameters:
single_cpu_test=1 sequential_test_order=1 test_repeat_count=3
with following output:
<snip>
Summary: fix_size_alloc_test passed: 3 failed: 0 repeat: 3 loops: 1000000 avg: 901177 usec
Summary: full_fit_alloc_test passed: 3 failed: 0 repeat: 3 loops: 1000000 avg: 1039341 usec

Summary: random_size_alloc_test passed 3: failed: 0 repeat: 3 loops: 1000000 avg: 6081992 usec

Summary: random_size_align_alloc_test passed: 3 failed: 0 repeat: 3 loops: 1000000 avg: 2895689 usec
Summary: align_shift_alloc_test passed: 0 failed: 3 repeat: 3 loops: 1000000 avg: 573 usec
Summary: pcpu_alloc_test passed: 3 failed: 0 repeat: 3 loops: 1000000 avg: 95802 usec
All test took CPU0=192945605995 cycles
<snip>
The align_shift_alloc_test is expected to be failed.
Stressing:
In order to stress the vmalloc subsystem we run all available test cases
on all available CPUs simultaneously. In order to prevent constant behaviour
pattern, the test cases array is shuffled by default to randomize the order
of test execution.
For example if we want to run all tests(default), use all online CPUs(default)
with shuffled order(default) and to repeat each test 30 times. The command
would be like:
modprobe vmalloc_test test_repeat_count=30
Expected results are the system is alive, there are no any BUG_ONs or Kernel
Panics the tests are completed, no memory leaks.

When VM_NO_GUARD is not set area->size includes adjacent guard page,
thus for correct size checking get_vm_area_size() should be used, but
not area->size.
This fixes possible kernel oops when userspace tries to mmap an area on
1 page bigger than was allocated by vmalloc_user() call: the size check
inside remap_vmalloc_range_partial() accounts non-existing guard page
also, so check successfully passes but vmalloc_to_page() returns NULL
(guard page does not physically exist).
The following code pattern example should trigger an oops:
static int oops_mmap(struct file *file, struct vm_area_struct *vma)
{
void *mem;
mem = vmalloc_user(4096);
BUG_ON(!mem);
/* Do not care about mem leak */
return remap_vmalloc_range(vma, mem, 0);
}
And userspace simply mmaps size + PAGE_SIZE:
mmap(NULL, 8192, PROT_WRITE|PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, fd, 0);
Possible candidates for oops which do not have any explicit size
checks:
*** drivers/media/usb/stkwebcam/stk-webcam.c:
v4l_stk_mmap[789] ret = remap_vmalloc_range(vma, sbuf->buffer, 0);
Or the following one:
*** drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c
static int
fb_mmap(struct file *file, struct vm_area_struct * vma)
...
res = fb->fb_mmap(info, vma);
Where fb_mmap callback calls remap_vmalloc_range() directly without any
explicit checks:
*** drivers/video/fbdev/vfb.c
static int vfb_mmap(struct fb_info *info,
struct vm_area_struct *vma)
{
return remap_vmalloc_range(vma, (void *)info->fix.smem_start, vma->vm_pgoff);
}

This patch repeats the original one from David S Miller:
2dca6999ee ("mm, perf_event: Make vmalloc_user() align base kernel virtual address to SHMLBA")
but for missed vmalloc_32_user() case, which also requires correct
alignment of virtual address on kernel side to avoid D-caches aliases.
A bit of copy-paste from original patch to recover in memory of what is
all about:
When a vmalloc'd area is mmap'd into userspace, some kind of
co-ordination is necessary for this to work on platforms with cpu
D-caches which can have aliases.
Otherwise kernel side writes won't be seen properly in userspace and
vice versa.
If the kernel side mapping and the user side one have the same
alignment, modulo SHMLBA, this can work as long as VM_SHARED is shared
of VMA and for all current users this is true. VM_SHARED will force
SHMLBA alignment of the user side mmap on platforms with D-cache
aliasing matters.
David S. Miller
> What are the user-visible runtime effects of this change?
In simple words: proper alignment avoids possible difference in data,
seen by different virtual mapings: userspace and kernel in our case.
I.e. userspace reads cache line A, kernel writes to cache line B. Both
cache lines correspond to the same physical memory (thus aliases).
So this should fix data corruption for archs with vivt and vipt caches,
e.g. armv6. Personally I've never worked with this archs, I just
spotted the strange difference in code: for one case we do alignment,
for another - not. I have a strong feeling that David simply missed
vmalloc_32_user() case.
>
> Is a -stable backport needed?
No, I do not think so. The only one user of vmalloc_32_user() is
virtual frame buffer device drivers/video/fbdev/vfb.c, which has in the
description "The main use of this frame buffer device is testing and
debugging the frame buffer subsystem. Do NOT enable it for normal
systems!".
And it seems to me that this vfb.c does not need 32bit addressable pages
(vmalloc_32_user() case), because it is virtual device and should not
care about things like dma32 zones, etc. Probably is better to clean
the code and switch vfb.c from vmalloc_32_user() to vmalloc_user() case
and wipe out vmalloc_32_user() from vmalloc.c completely. But I'm not
very much sure that this is worth to do, that's so minor, so we can
leave it as is.

This is purely code cleanup patch without any functional change. Only
the order of checks in memcg_charge_slab() can potentially be changed
but the functionally it will be same. This should not matter as
memcg_charge_slab() is not in the hot path.

There are two cases when put_cpu_partial() is invoked.
* __slab_free
* get_partial_node
This patch just makes it cover these two cases.

Add an optimization for KSM pages almost in the same way that we have
for ordinary anonymous pages. If there is a write fault in a page,
which is mapped to an only pte, and it is not related to swap cache; the
page may be reused without copying its content.
[ Note that we do not consider PageSwapCache() pages at least for now,
since we don't want to complicate __get_ksm_page(), which has nice
optimization based on this (for the migration case). Currenly it is
spinning on PageSwapCache() pages, waiting for when they have
unfreezed counters (i.e., for the migration finish). But we don't want
to make it also spinning on swap cache pages, which we try to reuse,
since there is not a very high probability to reuse them. So, for now
we do not consider PageSwapCache() pages at all. ]
So in reuse_ksm_page() we check for 1) PageSwapCache() and 2)
page_stable_node(), to skip a page, which KSM is currently trying to
link to stable tree. Then we do page_ref_freeze() to prohibit KSM to
merge one more page into the page, we are reusing. After that, nobody
can refer to the reusing page: KSM skips !PageSwapCache() pages with
zero refcount; and the protection against of all other participants is
the same as for reused ordinary anon pages pte lock, page lock and
mmap_sem.

Patch series "Replace all open encodings for NUMA_NO_NODE", v3.
All these places for replacement were found by running the following
grep patterns on the entire kernel code. Please let me know if this
might have missed some instances. This might also have replaced some
false positives. I will appreciate suggestions, inputs and review.
1. git grep "nid == -1"
2. git grep "node == -1"
3. git grep "nid = -1"
4. git grep "node = -1"
This patch (of 2):
At present there are multiple places where invalid node number is
encoded as -1. Even though implicitly understood it is always better to
have macros in there. Replace these open encodings for an invalid node
number with the global macro NUMA_NO_NODE. This helps remove NUMA
related assumptions like 'invalid node' from various places redirecting
them to a common definition.

Right now, pages inflated as part of a balloon driver will be dumped by
dump tools like makedumpfile. While XEN is able to check in the crash
kernel whether a certain pfn is actuall backed by memory in the
hypervisor (see xen_oldmem_pfn_is_ram) and optimize this case, dumps of
other balloon inflated memory will essentially result in zero pages
getting allocated by the hypervisor and the dump getting filled with
this data.
The allocation and reading of zero pages can directly be avoided if a
dumping tool could know which pages only contain stale information not
to be dumped.
We now have PG_offline which can be (and already is by virtio-balloon)
used for marking pages as logically offline. Follow up patches will
make use of this flag also in other balloon implementations.
Let's export PG_offline via PAGE_OFFLINE_MAPCOUNT_VALUE, so makedumpfile
can directly skip pages that are logically offline and the content
therefore stale.
Please note that this is also helpful for a problem we were seeing under
Hyper-V: Dumping logically offline memory (pages kept fake offline while
onlining a section via online_page_callback) would under some condicions
result in a kernel panic when dumping them.

PG_balloon was introduced to implement page migration/compaction for
pages inflated in virtio-balloon. Nowadays, it is only a marker that a
page is part of virtio-balloon and therefore logically offline.
We also want to make use of this flag in other balloon drivers - for
inflated pages or when onlining a section but keeping some pages offline
(e.g. used right now by XEN and Hyper-V via set_online_page_callback()).
We are going to expose this flag to dump tools like makedumpfile. But
instead of exposing PG_balloon, let's generalize the concept of marking
pages as logically offline, so it can be reused for other purposes later
on.
Rename PG_balloon to PG_offline. This is an indicator that the page is
logically offline, the content stale and that it should not be touched
(e.g. a hypervisor would have to allocate backing storage in order for
the guest to dump an unused page). We can then e.g. exclude such pages
from dumps.
We replace and reuse KPF_BALLOON (23), as this shouldn't really harm
(and for now the semantics stay the same). In following patches, we
will make use of this bit also in other balloon drivers. While at it,
document PGTABLE.

Patch series "mm/kdump: allow to exclude pages that are logically
offline"
Right now, pages inflated as part of a balloon driver will be dumped by
dump tools like makedumpfile. While XEN is able to check in the crash
kernel whether a certain pfn is actuall backed by memory in the
hypervisor (see xen_oldmem_pfn_is_ram) and optimize this case, dumps of
virtio-balloon, hv-balloon and VMWare balloon inflated memory will
essentially result in zero pages getting allocated by the hypervisor and
the dump getting filled with this data.
The allocation and reading of zero pages can directly be avoided if a
dumping tool could know which pages only contain stale information not
to be dumped.
Also for XEN, calling into the kernel and asking the hypervisor if a pfn
is backed can be avoided if the duming tool would skip such pages right
from the beginning.
Dumping tools have no idea whether a given page is part of a balloon
driver and shall not be dumped. Esp. PG_reserved cannot be used for
that purpose as all memory allocated during early boot is also
PG_reserved, see discussion at [1]. So some other way of indication is
required and a new page flag is frowned upon.
We have PG_balloon (MAPCOUNT value), which is essentially unused now. I
suggest renaming it to something more generic (PG_offline) to mark pages
as logically offline. This flag can than e.g. also be used by
virtio-mem in the future to mark subsections as offline. Or by other
code that wants to put pages logically offline (e.g. later maybe
poisoned pages that shall no longer be used).
This series converts PG_balloon to PG_offline, allows dumping tools to
query the value to detect such pages and marks pages in the hv-balloon
and XEN balloon properly as PG_offline. Note that virtio-balloon
already set pages to PG_balloon (and now PG_offline).
Please note that this is also helpful for a problem we were seeing under
Hyper-V: Dumping logically offline memory (pages kept fake offline while
onlining a section via online_page_callback) would under some condicions
result in a kernel panic when dumping them.
As I don't have access to neither XEN nor Hyper-V nor VMWare
installations, this was only tested with the virtio-balloon and pages
were properly skipped when dumping. I'll also attach the makedumpfile
patch to this series.

This patch (of 8):
Commit b1123ea6d3 ("mm: balloon: use general non-lru movable page
feature") reworked balloon handling to make use of the general non-lru
movable page feature. The big comment block in balloon_compaction.h
contains quite some outdated information. Let's fix this.

When freeing pages are done with higher order, time spent on coalescing
pages by buddy allocator can be reduced. With section size of 256MB,
hot add latency of a single section shows improvement from 50-60 ms to
less than 1 ms, hence improving the hot add latency by 60 times. Modify
external providers of online callback to align with the change.

Kmemleak throws endless warnings during boot due to in
__alloc_alien_cache(),
alc = kmalloc_node(memsize, gfp, node);
init_arraycache(&alc->ac, entries, batch);
kmemleak_no_scan(ac);
Kmemleak does not track the array cache (alc->ac) but the alien cache
(alc) instead, so let it track the latter by lifting kmemleak_no_scan()
out of init_arraycache().
There is another place that calls init_arraycache(), but
alloc_kmem_cache_cpus() uses the percpu allocation where will never be
considered as a leak.
