* | | | mempolicy: remove case MPOL_INTERLEAVE from policy_zonelist()Bob Liu2010-05-251-3/+1Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In policy_zonelist() mode MPOL_INTERLEAVE shouldn't happen, so fall through to BUG() instead of break to return. I also fixed the comment.

* | | | mm: remove return value of putback_lru_pages()Minchan Kim2010-05-251-6/+1Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | putback_lru_page() never can fail. So it doesn't matter count of "the number of pages put back". In addition, users of this functions don't use return value. Let's remove unnecessary code.

Pages belonging to a compound whose next-highest buddy is free are more likely to be part of a high order merge in the near future, so they will be added at the tail of the freelist. The remaining pages are put at the front of the freelist. In this way, the pages that are more likely to cause a big merge are kept free longer. Consequently there is a tendency to aggregate the long-living allocations on a subset of the compounds, reducing the fragmentation. This heuristic was tested on three machines, x86, x86-64 and ppc64 with 3GB of RAM in each machine. The tests were kernbench, netperf, sysbench and STREAM for performance and a high-order stress test for huge page allocations.

Many of the results, whether gains or losses were within the standard deviation so no solid conclusion can be reached on performance impact. Looking at the figures, only the X86-64 ones look suspicious with a few losses that were outside the noise. However, the results were so unstable that without knowing why they vary so much, a solid conclusion cannot be reached.

While there are a few losses, the results vary by +/- 8% in some cases. They are the results of most concern as there are some large losses but it's also within the variance typically seen between kernel releases. The STREAM results varied so little and are so verbose that I didn't include them here. The final test stressed how many huge pages can be allocated. The absolute number of huge pages allocated are the same with or without the page. However, the "unusability free space index" which is a measure of external fragmentation was slightly lower (lower is better) throughout the lifetime of the system. I also measured the latency of how long it took to successfully allocate a huge page. The latency was slightly lower and on X86 and PPC64, more huge pages were allocated almost immediately from the free lists. The improvement is slight but there.

This is regression of caused by commit 9ff473b9a7 ("vmscan: evict streaming IO first"). Wow, It is 2 years old patch! Currently, tmpfs file cache is inserted active list at first. This means that the insertion doesn't only increase numbers of pages in anon LRU, but it also reduces anon scanning ratio. Therefore, vmscan will get totally confused. It scans almost only file LRU even though the system has plenty unused tmpfs pages. Historically, lru_cache_add_active_anon() was used for two reasons. 1) Intend to priotize shmem page rather than regular file cache. 2) Intend to avoid reclaim priority inversion of used once pages. But we've lost both motivation because (1) Now we have separate anon and file LRU list. then, to insert active list doesn't help such priotize. (2) In past, one pte access bit will cause page activation. then to insert inactive list with pte access bit mean higher priority than to insert active list. Its priority inversion may lead to uninteded lru chun. but it was already solved by commit 645747462 (vmscan: detect mapped file pages used only once). (Thanks Hannes, you are great!) Thus, now we can use lru_cache_add_anon() instead.

This is possible at least on x86 CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_SPARSE kernels where SRAT entries are marked ACPI_SRAT_MEM_HOT_PLUGGABLE and the regions of RAM represent a seperate node. It can also be done manually by writing the start address to /sys/devices/system/memory/probe for kernels that have CONFIG_ARCH_MEMORY_PROBE set, which is how this patch was tested, and then onlining the new memory region. When a node is hotadded, a nodelist for that node is allocated and initialized for each slab cache. If this isn't completed due to a lack of memory, the hotadd is aborted: we have a reasonable expectation that kmalloc_node(nid) will work for all caches if nid is online and memory is available. Since nodelists must be allocated and initialized prior to the new node's memory actually being online, the struct kmem_list3 is allocated off-node due to kmalloc_node()'s fallback. When an entire node would be offlined, its nodelists are subsequently drained. If slab objects still exist and cannot be freed, the offline is aborted. It is possible that objects will be allocated between this drain and page isolation, so it's still possible that the offline will still fail, however.

Instead of mapping into vmalloc area, chunks are allocated as a contiguous kernel memory using alloc_pages(). As such, percpu allocator on nommu will have the following restrictions. * It can't fill chunks on-demand page-by-page. It has to allocate each chunk fully upfront. * It can't support sparse chunk for NUMA configurations. SMP w/o mmu is crazy enough. Let's hope no one does NUMA w/o mmu. :-P * If chunk size isn't power-of-two multiple of PAGE_SIZE, the unaligned amount will be wasted on each chunk. So, archs which use this better align chunk size.

The interface for chunk management is defined as follows. * pcpu_populate_chunk - populate the specified range of a chunk * pcpu_depopulate_chunk - depopulate the specified range of a chunk * pcpu_create_chunk - create a new chunk * pcpu_destroy_chunk - destroy a chunk, always preceded by full depop * pcpu_addr_to_page - translate address to physical address * pcpu_verify_alloc_info - check alloc_info is acceptable during init Other than wrapping vmalloc_to_page() inside pcpu_addr_to_page() and dummy pcpu_verify_alloc_info() implementation, this patch only moves code around. This separation is to allow alternate chunk management implementation.

It's buggy: TIF_DEBUGCTLMSR is trampling all over that MSR without regard for other uses (perf) and doesn't provide the flexibility needed for perf either. Its users are ptrace-block-step and ptrace-bts, since ptrace-bts was never used and ptrace-block-step can be implemented using a much simpler approach. So axe all 3000 lines of it. That includes the *locked_memory*() APIs in mm/mlock.c as well.

But Andrew Morton pointed out that the fix doesn't seems sane and it was just for hidining lockdep messages. This is a patch for do proper things. Checking again, all places, accessing without rcu_read_lock, that commit fixies was intentional.... all callers of css_id() has reference count on it. So, it's not necessary to be under rcu_read_lock(). Considering again, we can use rcu_dereference_check for css_id(). We know css->id is valid if css->refcnt > 0. (css->id never changes and freed after css->refcnt going to be 0.) This patch makes use of rcu_dereference_check() in css_id/depth and remove unnecessary rcu-read-lock added by the commit.

(For anonymous page shared by multiple processes, some verified (page,vma) pairs return -EFAULT wrongly.) We can go to checking all anon_vmas in the "same_vma" chain, but it needs to meet lock requirement. Instead, we can remove anon_vma check safely because page_address_in_vma() assumes that page and vma are already checked to belong to the identical process.

For shared mappings, these pages are reserved before mmap() returns success and for private mappings, the caller process is guaranteed and a child process that cannot get the pages gets killed with sigbus. An application that uses MAP_NORESERVE gets no reservations and mmap() will always succeed at the risk the page will not be available at fault time. This might be used for example on very large sparse mappings where the developer is confident the necessary huge pages exist to satisfy all faults even though the whole mapping cannot be backed by huge pages. Unfortunately, if an allocation does fail, VM_FAULT_OOM is returned to the fault handler which proceeds to trigger the OOM-killer. This is unhelpful. Even without hugetlbfs mounted, a user using mmap() can trivially trigger the OOM-killer because VM_FAULT_OOM is returned (will provide example program if desired - it's a whopping 24 lines long). It could be considered a DOS available to an unprivileged user. This patch alters hugetlbfs to kill a process that uses MAP_NORESERVE where huge pages were not available with SIGBUS instead of triggering the OOM killer. This change affects hugetlb_cow() as well. I feel there is a failure case in there, but I didn't create one. It would need a fairly specific target in terms of the faulting application and the hugepage pool size. The hugetlb_no_page() path is much easier to hit but both might as well be closed.
