We're going to want to manipulate the migration mode for compaction in the
page allocator, and currently compact_control's sync field is only a bool.
Currently, we only do MIGRATE_ASYNC or MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT compaction
depending on the value of this bool. Convert the bool to enum
migrate_mode and pass the migration mode in directly. Later, we'll want
to avoid MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT for thp allocations in the pagefault patch to
avoid unnecessary latency.
This also alters compaction triggered from sysfs, either for the entire
system or for a node, to force MIGRATE_SYNC.

Each zone has a cached migration scanner pfn for memory compaction so that
subsequent calls to memory compaction can start where the previous call
left off.
Currently, the compaction migration scanner only updates the per-zone
cached pfn when pageblocks were not skipped for async compaction. This
creates a dependency on calling sync compaction to avoid having subsequent
calls to async compaction from scanning an enormous amount of non-MOVABLE
pageblocks each time it is called. On large machines, this could be
potentially very expensive.
This patch adds a per-zone cached migration scanner pfn only for async
compaction. It is updated everytime a pageblock has been scanned in its
entirety and when no pages from it were successfully isolated. The cached
migration scanner pfn for sync compaction is updated only when called for
sync compaction.

Greg reported that he found isolated free pages were returned back to the
VM rather than the compaction freelist. This will cause holes behind the
free scanner and cause it to reallocate additional memory if necessary
later.
He detected the problem at runtime seeing that ext4 metadata pages (esp
the ones read by "sbi->s_group_desc[i] = sb_bread(sb, block)") were
constantly visited by compaction calls of migrate_pages(). These pages
had a non-zero b_count which caused fallback_migrate_page() ->
try_to_release_page() -> try_to_free_buffers() to fail.
Memory compaction works by having a "freeing scanner" scan from one end of
a zone which isolates pages as migration targets while another "migrating
scanner" scans from the other end of the same zone which isolates pages
for migration.
When page migration fails for an isolated page, the target page is
returned to the system rather than the freelist built by the freeing
scanner. This may require the freeing scanner to continue scanning memory
after suitable migration targets have already been returned to the system
needlessly.
This patch returns destination pages to the freeing scanner freelist when
page migration fails. This prevents unnecessary work done by the freeing
scanner but also encourages memory to be as compacted as possible at the
end of the zone.

Memory migration uses a callback defined by the caller to determine how to
allocate destination pages. When migration fails for a source page,
however, it frees the destination page back to the system.
This patch adds a memory migration callback defined by the caller to
determine how to free destination pages. If a caller, such as memory
compaction, builds its own freelist for migration targets, this can reuse
already freed memory instead of scanning additional memory.
If the caller provides a function to handle freeing of destination pages,
it is called when page migration fails. If the caller passes NULL then
freeing back to the system will be handled as usual. This patch
introduces no functional change.

Instead of calling back to memcontrol.c from kmem_cache_create_memcg in
order to just create the name of a per memcg cache, let's allocate it in
place. We only need to pass the memcg name to kmem_cache_create_memcg for
that - everything else can be done in slab_common.c.

Tracking dirty status on 2 level pages requires very ugly macros and
taking into account how old the machines who can operate without PAE
mode only are, lets drop soft dirty tracker from them for code
simplicity (note I can't drop all the macros from 2 level pages by now
since _PAGE_BIT_PROTNONE and _PAGE_BIT_FILE are still used even without
tracker).
Linus proposed to completely rip off softdirty support on x86-32 (even
with PAE) and since for CRIU we're not planning to support native x86-32
mode, lets do that.
(Softdirty tracker is relatively new feature which is mostly used by
CRIU so I don't expect if such API change would cause problems for
userspace).

I was looking at a trace of the slab shrinkers (attachment in this comment):
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=72742#c67
and noticed that "total_scan" can go negative in some cases. We
used to dump out the "total_scan" variable directly, but some of
the shrinker modifications along the way changed that.
This patch just dumps it out directly, again. It doesn't make
any sense to derive it from new_nr and nr any more since there
are now other shrinkers that can be running in parallel and
mucking with those values.
Here's an example of the negative numbers in the output:

"dev" cannot be NULL because it is already checked before calling
dma_pool_create().
If dev ever was NULL, the code would oops in dev_to_node() after enabling
CONFIG_NUMA.
It is possible that some driver is using dev==NULL and has never been run
on a NUMA machine. Such a driver is probably outdated, possibly buggy and
will need some attention if it starts triggering NULL derefs.

Currently, in put_compound_page(), we have
======
if (likely(!PageTail(page))) { <------ (1)
if (put_page_testzero(page)) {
/*
¦* By the time all refcounts have been released
¦* split_huge_page cannot run anymore from under us.
¦*/
if (PageHead(page))
__put_compound_page(page);
else
__put_single_page(page);
}
return;
}
/* __split_huge_page_refcount can run under us */
page_head = compound_head(page); <------------ (2)
======
if at (1) , we fail the check, this means page is *likely* a tail page.
Then at (2), as compoud_head(page) is inlined, it is :
======
static inline struct page *compound_head(struct page *page)
{
if (unlikely(PageTail(page))) { <----------- (3)
struct page *head = page->first_page;
smp_rmb();
if (likely(PageTail(page)))
return head;
}
return page;
}
======
here, the (3) unlikely in the case is a negative hint, because it is
*likely* a tail page. So the check (3) in this case is not good, so I
introduce a helper for this case.
So this patch introduces compound_head_by_tail() which deals with a
possible tail page(though it could be spilt by a racy thread), and make
compound_head() a wrapper on it.
This patch has no functional change, and it reduces the object
size slightly:
text data bss dec hex filename
11003 1328 16 12347 303b mm/swap.o.orig
10971 1328 16 12315 301b mm/swap.o.patched
I've ran "perf top -e branch-miss" to observe branch-miss in this case.
As Michael points out, it's a slow path, so only very few times this case
happens. But I grep'ed the code base, and found there still are some
other call sites could be benifited from this helper. And given that it
only bloating up the source by only 5 lines, but with a reduced object
size. I still believe this helper deserves to exsit.

Currently, put_compound_page() carefully handles tricky cases to avoid
racing with compound page releasing or splitting, which makes it quite
lenthy (about 200+ lines) and needs deep tab indention, which makes it
quite hard to follow and maintain.
Now based on two helpers introduced in the previous patch ("mm/swap.c:
introduce put_[un]refcounted_compound_page helpers for spliting
put_compound_page"), this patch replaces those two lengthy code paths with
these two helpers, respectively. Also, it has some comment rephrasing.
After this patch, the put_compound_page() is very compact, thus easy to
read and maintain.
After splitting, the object file is of same size as the original one.
Actually, I've diff'ed put_compound_page()'s orginal disassemble code and
the patched disassemble code, the are 100% the same!
This fact shows that this splitting has no functional change, but it
brings readability.
This patch and the previous one blow the code by 32 lines, mostly due to
comments.

put_compound_page()
Currently, put_compound_page() carefully handles tricky cases to avoid
racing with compound page releasing or splitting, which makes it quite
lenthy (about 200+ lines) and needs deep tab indention, which makes it
quite hard to follow and maintain.
This patch and the next patch refactor this function.
Based on the code skeleton of put_compound_page:
put_compound_pge:
if !PageTail(page)
put head page fastpath;
return;
/* else PageTail */
page_head = compound_head(page)
if !__compound_tail_refcounted(page_head)
put head page optimal path; <---(1)
return;
else
put head page slowpath; <--- (2)
return;
This patch introduces two helpers, put_[un]refcounted_compound_page,
handling the code path (1) and code path (2), respectively. They both are
tagged __always_inline, thus elmiating function call overhead, making them
operating the same way as before.
They are almost copied verbatim(except one place, a "goto out_put_single"
is expanded), with some comments rephrasing.

Remove start_kernel()->mm_init_owner(&init_mm, &init_task).
This doesn't really hurt but unnecessary and misleading. init_task is the
"swapper" thread == current, its ->mm is always NULL. And init_mm can
only be used as ->active_mm, not as ->mm.
mm_init_owner() has a single caller with this patch, perhaps it should
die. mm_init() can initialize ->owner under #ifdef.

A block device driver may choose to provide a rw_page operation. These
will be called when the filesystem is attempting to do page sized I/O to
page cache pages (ie not for direct I/O). This does preclude I/Os that
are larger than page size, so this may only be a performance gain for
some devices.

When a loopback NFS mount is active and the backing device for the NFS
mount becomes congested, that can impose throttling delays on the nfsd
threads.
These delays significantly reduce throughput and so the NFS mount remains
congested.
This results in a livelock and the reduced throughput persists.
This livelock has been found in testing with the 'wait_iff_congested'
call, and could possibly be caused by the 'congestion_wait' call.
This livelock is similar to the deadlock which justified the introduction
of PF_LESS_THROTTLE, and the same flag can be used to remove this
livelock.
To minimise the impact of the change, we still throttle nfsd when the
filesystem it is writing to is congested, but not when some separate
filesystem (e.g. the NFS filesystem) is congested.

Migration of misplaced transhuge pages uses page_add_new_anon_rmap() when
putting the page back as it avoided an atomic operations and added the new
page to the correct LRU. A side-effect is that the page gets marked
activated as part of the migration meaning that transhuge and base pages
are treated differently from an aging perspective than base page
migration.
This patch uses page_add_anon_rmap() and putback_lru_page() on completion
of a transhuge migration similar to base page migration. It would require
fewer atomic operations to use lru_cache_add without taking an additional
reference to the page. The downside would be that it's still different to
base page migration and unevictable pages may be added to the wrong LRU
for cleaning up later. Testing of the usual workloads did not show any
adverse impact to the change.

At present, we have the following mutexes protecting data related to per
memcg kmem caches:
- slab_mutex. This one is held during the whole kmem cache creation
and destruction paths. We also take it when updating per root cache
memcg_caches arrays (see memcg_update_all_caches). As a result, taking
it guarantees there will be no changes to any kmem cache (including per
memcg). Why do we need something else then? The point is it is
private to slab implementation and has some internal dependencies with
other mutexes (get_online_cpus). So we just don't want to rely upon it
and prefer to introduce additional mutexes instead.
- activate_kmem_mutex. Initially it was added to synchronize
initializing kmem limit (memcg_activate_kmem). However, since we can
grow per root cache memcg_caches arrays only on kmem limit
initialization (see memcg_update_all_caches), we also employ it to
protect against memcg_caches arrays relocation (e.g. see
__kmem_cache_destroy_memcg_children).
- We have a convention not to take slab_mutex in memcontrol.c, but we
want to walk over per memcg memcg_slab_caches lists there (e.g. for
destroying all memcg caches on offline). So we have per memcg
slab_caches_mutex's protecting those lists.
The mutexes are taken in the following order:
activate_kmem_mutex -> slab_mutex -> memcg::slab_caches_mutex
Such a syncrhonization scheme has a number of flaws, for instance:
- We can't call kmem_cache_{destroy,shrink} while walking over a
memcg::memcg_slab_caches list due to locking order. As a result, in
mem_cgroup_destroy_all_caches we schedule the
memcg_cache_params::destroy work shrinking and destroying the cache.
- We don't have a mutex to synchronize per memcg caches destruction
between memcg offline (mem_cgroup_destroy_all_caches) and root cache
destruction (__kmem_cache_destroy_memcg_children). Currently we just
don't bother about it.
This patch simplifies it by substituting per memcg slab_caches_mutex's
with the global memcg_slab_mutex. It will be held whenever a new per
memcg cache is created or destroyed, so it protects per root cache
memcg_caches arrays and per memcg memcg_slab_caches lists. The locking
order is following:
activate_kmem_mutex -> memcg_slab_mutex -> slab_mutex
This allows us to call kmem_cache_{create,shrink,destroy} under the
memcg_slab_mutex. As a result, we don't need memcg_cache_params::destroy
work any more - we can simply destroy caches while iterating over a per
memcg slab caches list.
Also using the global mutex simplifies synchronization between concurrent
per memcg caches creation/destruction, e.g. mem_cgroup_destroy_all_caches
vs __kmem_cache_destroy_memcg_children.
The downside of this is that we substitute per-memcg slab_caches_mutex's
with a hummer-like global mutex, but since we already take either the
slab_mutex or the cgroup_mutex along with a memcg::slab_caches_mutex, it
shouldn't hurt concurrency a lot.

Currently we have two pairs of kmemcg-related functions that are called on
slab alloc/free. The first is memcg_{bind,release}_pages that count the
total number of pages allocated on a kmem cache. The second is
memcg_{un}charge_slab that {un}charge slab pages to kmemcg resource
counter. Let's just merge them to keep the code clean.

This patchset is a part of preparations for kmemcg re-parenting. It
targets at simplifying kmemcg work-flows and synchronization.
First, it removes async per memcg cache destruction (see patches 1, 2).
Now caches are only destroyed on memcg offline. That means the caches
that are not empty on memcg offline will be leaked. However, they are
already leaked, because memcg_cache_params::nr_pages normally never drops
to 0 so the destruction work is never scheduled except kmem_cache_shrink
is called explicitly. In the future I'm planning reaping such dead caches
on vmpressure or periodically.
Second, it substitutes per memcg slab_caches_mutex's with the global
memcg_slab_mutex, which should be taken during the whole per memcg cache
creation/destruction path before the slab_mutex (see patch 3). This
greatly simplifies synchronization among various per memcg cache
creation/destruction paths.
I'm still not quite sure about the end picture, in particular I don't know
whether we should reap dead memcgs' kmem caches periodically or try to
merge them with their parents (see https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/20/38 for
more details), but whichever way we choose, this set looks like a
reasonable change to me, because it greatly simplifies kmemcg work-flows
and eases further development.
This patch (of 3):
After a memcg is offlined, we mark its kmem caches that cannot be deleted
right now due to pending objects as dead by setting the
memcg_cache_params::dead flag, so that memcg_release_pages will schedule
cache destruction (memcg_cache_params::destroy) as soon as the last slab
of the cache is freed (memcg_cache_params::nr_pages drops to zero).
I guess the idea was to destroy the caches as soon as possible, i.e.
immediately after freeing the last object. However, it just doesn't work
that way, because kmem caches always preserve some pages for the sake of
performance, so that nr_pages never gets to zero unless the cache is
shrunk explicitly using kmem_cache_shrink. Of course, we could account
the total number of objects on the cache or check if all the slabs
allocated for the cache are empty on kmem_cache_free and schedule
destruction if so, but that would be too costly.
Thus we have a piece of code that works only when we explicitly call
kmem_cache_shrink, but complicates the whole picture a lot. Moreover,
it's racy in fact. For instance, kmem_cache_shrink may free the last slab
and thus schedule cache destruction before it finishes checking that the
cache is empty, which can lead to use-after-free.
So I propose to remove this async cache destruction from
memcg_release_pages, and check if the cache is empty explicitly after
calling kmem_cache_shrink instead. This will simplify things a lot w/o
introducing any functional changes.
And regarding dead memcg caches (i.e. those that are left hanging around
after memcg offline for they have objects), I suppose we should reap them
either periodically or on vmpressure as Glauber suggested initially. I'm
going to implement this later.

Eric has reported that he can see task(s) stuck in memcg OOM handler
regularly. The only way out is to
echo 0 > $GROUP/memory.oom_control
His usecase is:
- Setup a hierarchy with memory and the freezer (disable kernel oom and
have a process watch for oom).
- In that memory cgroup add a process with one thread per cpu.
- In one thread slowly allocate once per second I think it is 16M of ram
and mlock and dirty it (just to force the pages into ram and stay
there).
- When oom is achieved loop:
* attempt to freeze all of the tasks.
* if frozen send every task SIGKILL, unfreeze, remove the directory in
cgroupfs.
Eric has then pinpointed the issue to be memcg specific.
All tasks are sitting on the memcg_oom_waitq when memcg oom is disabled.
Those that have received fatal signal will bypass the charge and should
continue on their way out. The tricky part is that the exit path might
trigger a page fault (e.g. exit_robust_list), thus the memcg charge,
while its memcg is still under OOM because nobody has released any charges
yet.
Unlike with the in-kernel OOM handler the exiting task doesn't get
TIF_MEMDIE set so it doesn't shortcut further charges of the killed task
and falls to the memcg OOM again without any way out of it as there are no
fatal signals pending anymore.
This patch fixes the issue by checking PF_EXITING early in
mem_cgroup_try_charge and bypass the charge same as if it had fatal
signal pending or TIF_MEMDIE set.
Normally exiting tasks (aka not killed) will bypass the charge now but
this should be OK as the task is leaving and will release memory and
increasing the memory pressure just to release it in a moment seems
dubious wasting of cycles. Besides that charges after exit_signals should
be rare.
I am bringing this patch again (rebased on the current mmotm tree). I
hope we can move forward finally. If there is still an opposition then
I would really appreciate a concurrent approach so that we can discuss
alternatives.
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.stable/77650 is a reference
to the followup discussion when the patch has been dropped from the mmotm
last time.

ZONE_NORMAL
throttle_direct_reclaim() is meant to trigger during swap-over-network
during which the min watermark is treated as a pfmemalloc reserve. It
throttes on the first node in the zonelist but this is flawed.
The user-visible impact is that a process running on CPU whose local
memory node has no ZONE_NORMAL will stall for prolonged periods of time,
possibly indefintely. This is due to throttle_direct_reclaim thinking the
pfmemalloc reserves are depleted when in fact they don't exist on that
node.
On a NUMA machine running a 32-bit kernel (I know) allocation requests
from CPUs on node 1 would detect no pfmemalloc reserves and the process
gets throttled. This patch adjusts throttling of direct reclaim to
throttle based on the first node in the zonelist that has a usable
ZONE_NORMAL or lower zone.
