The backoff mechanism is not needed. If we have MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES loops without progress, we'll OOM anyway; backing off might cut one or two iterations off that in the rare OOM case. If we have intermittent success reclaiming a few pages, the backoff function gets reset also, and so is of little help in these scenarios. We might want a backoff function for when there IS progress, but not enough to be satisfactory. But this isn't that. Remove it.

This reverts commit d7f05528. Now that reclaimability of a node is no longer based on the ratio between pages scanned and theoretically reclaimable pages, we can remove accounting tricks for pages skipped due to zone constraints.

NR_PAGES_SCANNED counts number of pages scanned since the last page free event in the allocator. This was used primarily to measure the reclaimability of zones and nodes, and determine when reclaim should give up on them. In that role, it has been replaced in the preceding patches by a different mechanism. Being implemented as an efficient vmstat counter, it was automatically exported to userspace as well. It's however unlikely that anyone outside the kernel is using this counter in any meaningful way. Remove the counter and the unused pgdat_reclaimable().

Commit 246e87a9 ("memcg: fix get_scan_count() for small targets") sought to avoid high reclaim priorities for memcg by forcing it to scan a minimum amount of pages when lru_pages >> priority yielded nothing. This was done at a time when reclaim decisions like dirty throttling were tied to the priority level. Nowadays, the only meaningful thing still tied to priority dropping below DEF_PRIORITY - 2 is gating whether laptop_mode=1 is generally allowed to write. But that is from an era where direct reclaim was still allowed to call ->writepage, and kswapd nowadays avoids writes until it's scanned every clean page in the system. Potential changes to how quick sc->may_writepage could trigger are of little concern. Remove the force_scan stuff, as well as the ugly multi-pass target calculation that it necessitated.

Commit b95a2f2d ("mm: vmscan: convert global reclaim to per-memcg LRU lists"), due to switching global reclaim to a round-robin scheme over all cgroups, had to restrict this forceful behavior to unreclaimable zones in order to prevent massive overreclaim with many cgroups. The latter patch effectively neutered the behavior completely for all but extreme memory pressure. But in those situations we might as well drop the reclaimers to lower priority levels. Remove the check. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170228214007.5621-6-hannes@cmpxchg.orgSigned-off-by:

NUMA balancing already checks the watermarks of the target node to decide whether it's a suitable balancing target. Whether the node is reclaimable or not is irrelevant when we don't intend to reclaim. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170228214007.5621-5-hannes@cmpxchg.orgSigned-off-by:

Commit 1d82de61 ("mm, vmscan: make kswapd reclaim in terms of nodes") allowed laptop_mode=1 to start writing not just when the priority drops to DEF_PRIORITY - 2 but also when the node is unreclaimable. That appears to be a spurious change in this patch as I doubt the series was tested with laptop_mode, and neither is that particular change mentioned in the changelog. Remove it, it's still recent.

PF_MEMALLOC direct reclaimers get throttled on a node when the sum of all free pages in each zone fall below half the min watermark. During the summation, we want to exclude zones that don't have reclaimables. Checking the same pgdat over and over again doesn't make sense.

Patch series "mm: kswapd spinning on unreclaimable nodes - fixes and cleanups". Jia reported a scenario in which the kswapd of a node indefinitely spins at 100% CPU usage. We have seen similar cases at Facebook. The kernel's current method of judging its ability to reclaim a node (or whether to back off and sleep) is based on the amount of scanned pages in proportion to the amount of reclaimable pages. In Jia's and our scenarios, there are no reclaimable pages in the node, however, and the condition for backing off is never met. Kswapd busyloops in an attempt to restore the watermarks while having nothing to work with. This series reworks the definition of an unreclaimable node based not on scanning but on whether kswapd is able to actually reclaim pages in MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES (16) consecutive runs. This is the same criteria the page allocator uses for giving up on direct reclaim and invoking the OOM killer. If it cannot free any pages, kswapd will go to sleep and leave further attempts to direct reclaim invocations, which will either make progress and re-enable kswapd, or invoke the OOM killer. Patch #1 fixes the immediate problem Jia reported, the remainder are smaller fixlets, cleanups, and overall phasing out of the old method. Patch #6 is the odd one out. It's a nice cleanup to get_scan_count(), and directly related to #5, but in itself not relevant to the series. If the whole series is too ambitious for 4.11, I would consider the first three patches fixes, the rest cleanups. This patch (of 9): Jia He reports a problem with kswapd spinning at 100% CPU when requesting more hugepages than memory available in the system: $ echo 4000 >/proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages top - 13:42:59 up 3:37, 1 user, load average: 1.09, 1.03, 1.01 Tasks: 1 total, 1 running, 0 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie %Cpu(s): 0.0 us, 12.5 sy, 0.0 ni, 85.5 id, 2.0 wa, 0.0 hi, 0.0 si, 0.0 st KiB Mem: 31371520 total, 30915136 used, 456384 free, 320 buffers KiB Swap: 6284224 total, 115712 used, 6168512 free. 48192 cached Mem PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 76 root 20 0 0 0 0 R 100.0 0.000 217:17.29 kswapd3 At that time, there are no reclaimable pages left in the node, but as kswapd fails to restore the high watermarks it refuses to go to sleep. Kswapd needs to back away from nodes that fail to balance. Up until commit 1d82de61 ("mm, vmscan: make kswapd reclaim in terms of nodes") kswapd had such a mechanism. It considered zones whose theoretically reclaimable pages it had reclaimed six times over as unreclaimable and backed away from them. This guard was erroneously removed as the patch changed the definition of a balanced node. However, simply restoring this code wouldn't help in the case reported here: there *are* no reclaimable pages that could be scanned until the threshold is met. Kswapd would stay awake anyway. Introduce a new and much simpler way of backing off. If kswapd runs through MAX_RECLAIM_RETRIES (16) cycles without reclaiming a single page, make it back off from the node. This is the same number of shots direct reclaim takes before declaring OOM. Kswapd will go to sleep on that node until a direct reclaimer manages to reclaim some pages, thus proving the node reclaimable again.

Each slab kmem cache has per cpu array caches. The array caches are created when the kmem_cache is created, either via kmem_cache_create() or lazily when the first object is allocated in context of a kmem enabled memcg. Array caches are replaced by writing to /proc/slabinfo. Array caches are protected by holding slab_mutex or disabling interrupts. Array cache allocation and replacement is done by __do_tune_cpucache() which holds slab_mutex and calls kick_all_cpus_sync() to interrupt all remote processors which confirms there are no references to the old array caches. IPIs are needed when replacing array caches. But when creating a new array cache, there's no need to send IPIs because there cannot be any references to the new cache. Outside of memcg kmem accounting these IPIs occur at boot time, so they're not a problem. But with memcg kmem accounting each container can create kmem caches, so the IPIs are wasteful. Avoid unnecessary IPIs when creating array caches. Test which reports the IPI count of allocating slab in 10000 memcg: import os def ipi_count(): with open("/proc/interrupts") as f: for l in f: if 'Function call interrupts' in l: return int(l.split()[1]) def echo(val, path): with open(path, "w") as f: f.write(val) n = 10000 os.chdir("/mnt/cgroup/memory") pid = str(os.getpid()) a = ipi_count() for i in range(n): os.mkdir(str(i)) echo("1G\n", "%d/memory.limit_in_bytes" % i) echo("1G\n", "%d/memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes" % i) echo(pid, "%d/cgroup.procs" % i) open("/tmp/x", "w").close() os.unlink("/tmp/x") b = ipi_count() print "%d loops: %d => %d (+%d ipis)" % (n, a, b, b-a) echo(pid, "cgroup.procs") for i in range(n): os.rmdir(str(i)) patched: 10000 loops: 1069 => 1170 (+101 ipis) unpatched: 10000 loops: 1192 => 48933 (+47741 ipis) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170416214544.109476-1-gthelen@google.comSigned-off-by:Greg Thelen <gthelen@google.com> Acked-by:

Configfs is the interface for ocfs2-tools to set configure to kernel and $configfs_dir/cluster/$clustername/heartbeat/dead_threshold is the one used to configure heartbeat dead threshold. Kernel has a default value of it but user can set O2CB_HEARTBEAT_THRESHOLD in /etc/sysconfig/o2cb to override it. Commit 45b99773 ("ocfs2/cluster: use per-attribute show and store methods") changed heartbeat dead threshold name while ocfs2-tools did not, so ocfs2-tools won't set this configurable and the default value is always used. So revert it. Fixes: 45b99773 ("ocfs2/cluster: use per-attribute show and store methods") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1490665245-15374-1-git-send-email-junxiao.bi@oracle.comSigned-off-by:

From a fixes perspective, the most important is likely the auditd connection tracking RCU fix; it was a rather brain dead bug that I'll take the blame for, but thankfully it didn't seem to affect many people (only one report). I think the patch subject lines and commit descriptions do a pretty good job of explaining the details and why the changes are important so I'll point you there instead of duplicating it here; as usual, if you have any questions you know where to find us.

Pull livepatch updates from Jiri Kosina: - a per-task consistency model is being added for architectures that support reliable stack dumping (extending this, currently rather trivial set, is currently in the works). This extends the nature of the types of patches that can be applied by live patching infrastructure. The code stems from the design proposal made [1] back in November 2014. It's a hybrid of SUSE's kGraft and RH's kpatch, combining advantages of both: it uses kGraft's per-task consistency and syscall barrier switching combined with kpatch's stack trace switching. There are also a number of fallback options which make it quite flexible.

Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij: "This is the bulk of pin control changes for the v4.12 cycle. The extra week before the merge window actually resulted in some of the type of fixes that usually arrive after the merge window already starting to trickle in from eager developers using -next, I'm impressed. I have recruited a Samsung subsubsystem maintainer (Krzysztof) to deal with the onset of Samsung patches. It works great. Apart from that it is a boring round, just incremental updates and fixes all over the place, no serious core changes or anything exciting like that. The most pleasing to see is Julia Cartwrights work to audit the irqchip-providing drivers for realtime locking compliance. It's one of those "I should really get around to looking into that" things that have been on my TODO list since forever. Summary: Core changes: - add bi-directional and output-enable pin configurations to the generic bindings and generic pin controlling core. New drivers or subdrivers: - Armada 37xx SoC pin controller and GPIO support. - Axis ARTPEC-6 SoC pin controller support. - AllWinner A64 R_PIO controller support, and opening up the AllWinner sunxi driver for ARM64 use. - Rockchip RK3328 support. - Renesas R-Car H3 ES2.0 support. - STM32F469 support in the STM32 driver. - Aspeed G4 and G5 pin controller support. Improvements: - a whole slew of realtime improvements to drivers implementing irqchips: BCM, AMD, SiRF, sunxi, rockchip. - switch meson driver to get the GPIO ranges from the device tree. - input schmitt trigger support on the Rockchip driver. - enable the sunxi (AllWinner) driver to also be used on ARM64 silicon. - name the Qualcomm QDF2xxx GPIO lines. - support GMMR GPIO regions on the Intel Cherryview. This fixes a serialization problem on these platforms. - pad retention support for the Samsung Exynos 5433. - handle suspend-to-ram in the AT91-pio4 driver. - pin configuration support in the Aspeed driver.

Sunil Goutham says: ==================== net: thunderx: Adds XDP support This patch series adds support for XDP to ThunderX NIC driver which is used on CN88xx, CN81xx and CN83xx platforms. Patches 1-4 are performance improvement and cleanup patches which are done keeping XDP performance bottlenecks in view. Rest of the patches adds actual XDP support. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Driver follows a method of taking one extra reference on the page for recycling which is fine in usual packet path where each 64KB page is segmented into multiple receive buffers. But in XDP mode since there is just one receive buffer per page taking extra page reference itself becomes big bottleneck consuming ~50% of CPU cycles due to atomic operations. This patch adds a internal ref count in pgcache for each page and additional page references are taken in a batch instead of just one at a time. Internal i.e 'pgcache->ref_count' and page's i.e 'page->_refcount' counters are compared to check page's recyclability. Signed-off-by:

When in XDP mode reserve XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM bytes at the start of receive buffer for XDP program to modify headers and adjust packet start. Additional code changes done to handle such packets. Signed-off-by:

Adds support for XDP_TX i.e transmits packet out of the XDP TX queue mapped to the corresponding Rx queue on which packet is received. Since SQ for XDP TX will be used only on a single cpu i.e SQ description creation and freeing, using atomic free count is not necessary and will become a bottleneck. Hence added a separate 'xdp_free_cnt' used for SQs designated for XDP to track descriptor free count. Changes also include - A new entry 'xdp_page' is added to save transmitted packet's page pointer for later cleanup. - XDP Tx SQ's doorbell is ringed once per NAPI instance. - Retrieving designated SQ for packets being sent out by stack via 'nicvf_xmit'.

Adds support for XDP_DROP. Also since in XDP mode there is just a single buffer per page, made changes to recycle DMA mapping info as well along with pages. Signed-off-by:

Adds basic XDP support i.e attaching a BPF program to an interface. Also takes care of allocating separate Tx queues for XDP path and for network stack packet transmission. This patch doesn't support handling of any of the XDP actions, all are treated as XDP_PASS i.e packets will be handed over to the network stack. Changes also involve allocating one receive buffer per page in XDP mode and multiple in normal mode i.e when no BPF program is attached. Signed-off-by:

Optimized CQE handling with below changes - Feeing descriptors back to SQ in bulk i.e once per NAPI instance instead for every CQE_TX, this will reduce number of atomic updates to 'sq->free_cnt'. - Checking errors in CQE_TX and CQE_RX before calling appropriate fn()s to update error stats i.e reduce branching. Also removed debug messages in packet handling path which otherwise causes issues if DEBUG is enabled. Signed-off-by:

Receive buffer's physical address or iova will anyway not go beyond 49bits, since it is the max supported HW address. As per perf, updating bitfields i.e buf_addr:42 in RBDR descriptor entry consumes lots of cpu cycles, hence changed it to a 64bit field with alignment requirements taken care of. Signed-off-by:

Adds support for page recycling for allocating receive buffers to reduce cost of refilling RBDR ring. Also got rid of using compound pages when pagesize is 4K, only order-0 pages now. Only page is recycled, DMA mappings still needs to be done for every receive buffer allocated due to following constraints - Cannot have just one receive buffer per 64KB page. - There is just one buffer ring shared across 8 Rx queues, so buffers of same page can go to any Rx queue. - HW gives buffer address where packet has been DMA'ed and not the index into buffer ring. This makes it not possible to resue DMA mapping info. So unfortunately have to go through costly mapping route for every buffer. Signed-off-by:
