* memcg: fix init_page_cgroup nid with sparsememKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki2011-06-151-18/+53
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 21a3c9646873 ("memcg: allocate memory cgroup structures in local nodes") makes page_cgroup allocation as NUMA aware. But that caused a problem https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36192. The problem was getting a NID from invalid struct pages, which was not initialized because it was out-of-node, out of [node_start_pfn, node_end_pfn) Now, with sparsemem, page_cgroup_init scans pfn from 0 to max_pfn. But this may scan a pfn which is not on any node and can access memmap which is not initialized. This makes page_cgroup_init() for SPARSEMEM node aware and remove a code to get nid from page->flags. (Then, we'll use valid NID always.)

* memcg: allocate memory cgroup structures in local nodesAndi Kleen2011-05-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit dde79e005a769 ("page_cgroup: reduce allocation overhead for page_cgroup array for CONFIG_SPARSEMEM") added a regression that the memory cgroup data structures all end up in node 0 because the first attempt at allocating them would not pass in a node hint. Since the initialization runs on CPU #0 it would all end up node 0. This is a problem on large memory systems, where node 0 would lose a lot of memory. Change the alloc_pages_exact() to alloc_pages_exact_nid(). This will still fall back to other nodes if not enough memory is available. [ RED-PEN: right now it would fall back first before trying vmalloc_node. Probably not the best strategy ...

* page_cgroup: reduce allocation overhead for page_cgroup array for ↵Michal Hocko2011-03-231-22/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | CONFIG_SPARSEMEM Currently we are allocating a single page_cgroup array per memory section (stored in mem_section->base) when CONFIG_SPARSEMEM is selected. This is correct but memory inefficient solution because the allocated memory (unless we fall back to vmalloc) is not kmalloc friendly: - 32b - 16384 entries (20B per entry) fit into 327680B so the 524288B slab cache is used - 32b with PAE - 131072 entries with 2621440B fit into 4194304B - 64b - 32768 entries (40B per entry) fit into 2097152 cache This is ~37% wasted space per memory section and it sumps up for the whole memory. On a x86_64 machine it is something like 6MB per 1GB of RAM. We can reduce the internal fragmentation by using alloc_pages_exact which allocates PAGE_SIZE aligned blocks so we will get down to <4kB wasted memory per section which is much better. We still need a fallback to vmalloc because we have no guarantees that we will have a continuous memory of that size (order-10) later on during the hotplug events.

* memcg: move charges of anonymous swapDaisuke Nishimura2010-03-121-2/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is another core part of this move-charge-at-task-migration feature. It enables moving charges of anonymous swaps. To move the charge of swap, we need to exchange swap_cgroup's record. In current implementation, swap_cgroup's record is protected by: - page lock: if the entry is on swap cache. - swap_lock: if the entry is not on swap cache. This works well in usual swap-in/out activity. But this behavior make the feature of moving swap charge check many conditions to exchange swap_cgroup's record safely. So I changed modification of swap_cgroup's recored(swap_cgroup_record()) to use xchg, and define a new function to cmpxchg swap_cgroup's record. This patch also enables moving charge of non pte_present but not uncharged swap caches, which can be exist on swap-out path, by getting the target pages via find_get_page() as do_mincore() does.

* cgroups: use css id in swap cgroup for saving memory v5KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki2009-04-021-18/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Try to use CSS ID for records in swap_cgroup. By this, on 64bit machine, size of swap_cgroup goes down to 2 bytes from 8bytes. This means, when 2GB of swap is equipped, (assume the page size is 4096bytes) From size of swap_cgroup = 2G/4k * 8 = 4Mbytes. To size of swap_cgroup = 2G/4k * 2 = 1Mbytes. Reduction is large. Of course, there are trade-offs. This CSS ID will add overhead to swap-in/swap-out/swap-free. But in general, - swap is a resource which the user tend to avoid use. - If swap is never used, swap_cgroup area is not used. - Reading traditional manuals, size of swap should be proportional to size of memory. Memory size of machine is increasing now. I think reducing size of swap_cgroup makes sense. Note: - ID->CSS lookup routine has no locks, it's under RCU-Read-Side. - memcg can be obsolete at rmdir() but not freed while refcnt from swap_cgroup is available. Changelog v4->v5: - reworked on to memcg-charge-swapcache-to-proper-memcg.patch Changlog ->v4: - fixed not configured case. - deleted unnecessary comments. - fixed NULL pointer bug. - fixed message in dmesg.

Now, - page_cgroup is linked to mem_cgroup's its own LRU (per zone). - LRU of page_cgroup is not synchronous with global LRU. - page and page_cgroup is one-to-one and statically allocated. - To find page_cgroup is on what LRU, you have to check pc->mem_cgroup as - lru = page_cgroup_zoneinfo(pc, nid_of_pc, zid_of_pc); - SwapCache is handled. And, when we handle LRU list of page_cgroup, we do following. pc = lookup_page_cgroup(page); lock_page_cgroup(pc); .....................(1) mz = page_cgroup_zoneinfo(pc); spin_lock(&mz->lru_lock); .....add to LRU spin_unlock(&mz->lru_lock); unlock_page_cgroup(pc); But (1) is spin_lock and we have to be afraid of dead-lock with zone->lru_lock. So, trylock() is used at (1), now. Without (1), we can't trust "mz" is correct. This is a trial to remove this dirty nesting of locks. This patch changes mz->lru_lock to be zone->lru_lock. Then, above sequence will be written as spin_lock(&zone->lru_lock); # in vmscan.c or swap.c via global LRU mem_cgroup_add/remove/etc_lru() { pc = lookup_page_cgroup(page); mz = page_cgroup_zoneinfo(pc); if (PageCgroupUsed(pc)) { ....add to LRU } spin_lock(&zone->lru_lock); # in vmscan.c or swap.c via global LRU This is much simpler. (*) We're safe even if we don't take lock_page_cgroup(pc). Because.. 1. When pc->mem_cgroup can be modified. - at charge. - at account_move(). 2. at charge the PCG_USED bit is not set before pc->mem_cgroup is fixed. 3. at account_move() the page is isolated and not on LRU. Pros. - easy for maintenance. - memcg can make use of laziness of pagevec. - we don't have to duplicated LRU/Active/Unevictable bit in page_cgroup. - LRU status of memcg will be synchronized with global LRU's one. - # of locks are reduced. - account_move() is simplified very much. Cons. - may increase cost of LRU rotation. (no impact if memcg is not configured.)

* memcg: swap cgroup for remembering usageKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki2009-01-081-0/+197
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For accounting swap, we need a record per swap entry, at least. This patch adds following function. - swap_cgroup_swapon() .... called from swapon - swap_cgroup_swapoff() ... called at the end of swapoff. - swap_cgroup_record() .... record information of swap entry. - swap_cgroup_lookup() .... lookup information of swap entry. This patch just implements "how to record information". No actual method for limit the usage of swap. These routine uses flat table to record and lookup. "wise" lookup system like radix-tree requires requires memory allocation at new records but swap-out is usually called under memory shortage (or memcg hits limit.) So, I used static allocation. (maybe dynamic allocation is not very hard but it adds additional memory allocation in memory shortage path.) Note1: In this, we use pointer to record information and this means 8bytes per swap entry. I think we can reduce this when we create "id of cgroup" in the range of 0-65535 or 0-255.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In init_section_page_cgroup() the section a given pfn belongs to is calculated at the top of the function and, despite the fact that the pfn/section correspondence does not change, it is recalculated further down the same function. By computing this just once and reusing that value we save some bytes in the object file and do not waste CPU cycles.

* memcg: memory hotplug fix for notifier callbackKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki2008-12-011-14/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes for memcg/memory hotplug. While memory hotplug allocate/free memmap, page_cgroup doesn't free page_cgroup at OFFLINE when page_cgroup is allocated via bootomem. (Because freeing bootmem requires special care.) Then, if page_cgroup is allocated by bootmem and memmap is freed/allocated by memory hotplug, page_cgroup->page == page is no longer true. But current MEM_ONLINE handler doesn't check it and update page_cgroup->page if it's not necessary to allocate page_cgroup. (This was not found because memmap is not freed if SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is y.) And I noticed that MEM_ONLINE can be called against "part of section". So, freeing page_cgroup at CANCEL_ONLINE will cause trouble. (freeing used page_cgroup) Don't rollback at CANCEL. One more, current memory hotplug notifier is stopped by slub because it sets NOTIFY_STOP_MASK to return vaule. So, page_cgroup's callback never be called. (low priority than slub now.) I think this slub's behavior is not intentional(BUG). and fixes it. Another way to be considered about page_cgroup allocation: - free page_cgroup at OFFLINE even if it's from bootmem and remove specieal handler. But it requires more changes.

* memcg: fix page_cgroup allocationKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki2008-10-231-7/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | page_cgroup_init() is called from mem_cgroup_init(). But at this point, we cannot call alloc_bootmem(). (and this caused panic at boot.) This patch moves page_cgroup_init() to init/main.c. Time table is following: == parse_args(). # we can trust mem_cgroup_subsys.disabled bit after this. .... cgroup_init_early() # "early" init of cgroup. .... setup_arch() # memmap is allocated. ... page_cgroup_init(); mem_init(); # we cannot call alloc_bootmem after this. .... cgroup_init() # mem_cgroup is initialized. == Before page_cgroup_init(), mem_map must be initialized. So, I added page_cgroup_init() to init/main.c directly. (*) maybe this is not very clean but - cgroup_init_early() is too early - in cgroup_init(), we have to use vmalloc instead of alloc_bootmem(). use of vmalloc area in x86-32 is important and we should avoid very large vmalloc() in x86-32. So, we want to use alloc_bootmem() and added page_cgroup_init() directly to init/main.c [akpm@linux-foundation.org: remove unneeded/bad mem_cgroup_subsys declaration] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix build] Acked-by: Balbir Singh <balbir@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Tested-by: Balbir Singh <balbir@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

* memcg: allocate all page_cgroup at bootKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki2008-10-201-0/+237
Allocate all page_cgroup at boot and remove page_cgroup poitner from struct page. This patch adds an interface as struct page_cgroup *lookup_page_cgroup(struct page*) All FLATMEM/DISCONTIGMEM/SPARSEMEM and MEMORY_HOTPLUG is supported. Remove page_cgroup pointer reduces the amount of memory by - 4 bytes per PAGE_SIZE. - 8 bytes per PAGE_SIZE if memory controller is disabled. (even if configured.) On usual 8GB x86-32 server, this saves 8MB of NORMAL_ZONE memory. On my x86-64 server with 48GB of memory, this saves 96MB of memory. I think this reduction makes sense. By pre-allocation, kmalloc/kfree in charge/uncharge are removed. This means - we're not necessary to be afraid of kmalloc faiulre. (this can happen because of gfp_mask type.) - we can avoid calling kmalloc/kfree. - we can avoid allocating tons of small objects which can be fragmented. - we can know what amount of memory will be used for this extra-lru handling. I added printk message as "allocated %ld bytes of page_cgroup" "please try cgroup_disable=memory option if you don't want" maybe enough informative for users.
