The real version just had a few callers that can open code it and remove one layer of indirection. The nommu stub was public but only had a single caller, so remove it and avoid a CONFIG_MMU ifdef in vmalloc.h. Signed-off-by:

The non-cached vmalloc mapping was initially added as a hack for the first-gen amigaone platform (6xx/book32s), isn't fully supported upstream, and which used the legacy radeon driver together with non-coherent DMA. However this only ever worked reliably for DRI . Remove the hack as it is the last user of __vmalloc passing a page protection flag other than PAGE_KERNEL and didn't do anything for other platforms with non-coherent DMA. Signed-off-by:

This allows to unexport map_vm_area and unmap_kernel_range, which are rather deep internal and should not be available to modules, as they for example allow fine grained control of mapping permissions, and also allow splitting the setup of a vmalloc area and the actual mapping and thus expose vmalloc internals. zsmalloc is typically built-in and continues to work (just like the percpu-vm code using a similar patter), while modular zsmalloc also continues to work, but must use copies.

Patch series "decruft the vmalloc API", v2. Peter noticed that with some dumb luck you can toast the kernel address space with exported vmalloc symbols. I used this as an opportunity to decruft the vmalloc.c API and make it much more systematic. This also removes any chance to create vmalloc mappings outside the designated areas or using executable permissions from modules. Besides that it removes more than 300 lines of code. This patch (of 29): Use the designated helper for allocating executable kernel memory, and remove the now unused PAGE_KERNEL_RX define. Signed-off-by:

Now, when reading /proc/PID/smaps, the PMD migration entry in page table is simply ignored. To improve the accuracy of /proc/PID/smaps, its parsing and processing is added. To test the patch, we run pmbench to eat 400 MB memory in background, then run /usr/bin/migratepages and `cat /proc/PID/smaps` every second. The issue as follows can be reproduced within 60 seconds. Before the patch, for the fully populated 400 MB anonymous VMA, some THP pages under migration may be lost as below. 7f3f6a7e5000-7f3f837e5000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 Size: 409600 kB KernelPageSize: 4 kB MMUPageSize: 4 kB Rss: 407552 kB Pss: 407552 kB Shared_Clean: 0 kB Shared_Dirty: 0 kB Private_Clean: 0 kB Private_Dirty: 407552 kB Referenced: 301056 kB Anonymous: 407552 kB LazyFree: 0 kB AnonHugePages: 405504 kB ShmemPmdMapped: 0 kB FilePmdMapped: 0 kB Shared_Hugetlb: 0 kB Private_Hugetlb: 0 kB Swap: 0 kB SwapPss: 0 kB Locked: 0 kB THPeligible: 1 VmFlags: rd wr mr mw me ac After the patch, it will be always, 7f3f6a7e5000-7f3f837e5000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 Size: 409600 kB KernelPageSize: 4 kB MMUPageSize: 4 kB Rss: 409600 kB Pss: 409600 kB Shared_Clean: 0 kB Shared_Dirty: 0 kB Private_Clean: 0 kB Private_Dirty: 409600 kB Referenced: 294912 kB Anonymous: 409600 kB LazyFree: 0 kB AnonHugePages: 407552 kB ShmemPmdMapped: 0 kB FilePmdMapped: 0 kB Shared_Hugetlb: 0 kB Private_Hugetlb: 0 kB Swap: 0 kB SwapPss: 0 kB Locked: 0 kB THPeligible: 1 VmFlags: rd wr mr mw me ac Signed-off-by:

The page table entry is passed in the 'val' argument to note_page(), however this was previously an "unsigned long" which is fine on 64-bit platforms. But for 32 bit x86 it is not always big enough to contain a page table entry which may be 64 bits. Change the type to u64 to ensure that it is always big enough.

Patch series "Fix W+X debug feature on x86" Jan alerted me[1] that the W+X detection debug feature was broken in x86 by my change[2] to switch x86 to use the generic ptdump infrastructure. Fundamentally the approach of trying to move the calculation of effective permissions into note_page() was broken because note_page() is only called for 'leaf' entries and the effective permissions are passed down via the internal nodes of the page tree. The solution I've taken here is to create a new (optional) callback which is called for all nodes of the page tree and therefore can calculate the effective permissions. Secondly on some configurations (32 bit with PAE) "unsigned long" is not large enough to store the table entries. The fix here is simple - let's just use a u64. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/d573dc7e-e742-84de-473d-f971142fa319@suse.com/ [2] 2ae27137 ("x86: mm: convert dump_pagetables to use walk_page_range") This patch (of 2): By switching the x86 page table dump code to use the generic code the effective permissions are no longer calculated correctly because the note_page() function is only called for *leaf* entries. To calculate the actual effective permissions it is necessary to observe the full hierarchy of the page tree. Introduce a new callback for ptdump which is called for every entry and can therefore update the prot_levels array correctly. note_page() can then simply access the appropriate element in the array.

While trying to use remote memcg charging in an out-of-tree kernel module I found it's not working, because the current thread is a workqueue thread. As we will probably encounter this issue in the future as the users of memalloc_use_memcg() grow, and it's nothing wrong for this usage, it's better we fix it now. Signed-off-by:

Add a memory.swap.high knob, which can be used to protect the system from SWAP exhaustion. The mechanism used for penalizing is similar to memory.high penalty (sleep on return to user space). That is not to say that the knob itself is equivalent to memory.high. The objective is more to protect the system from potentially buggy tasks consuming a lot of swap and impacting other tasks, or even bringing the whole system to stand still with complete SWAP exhaustion. Hopefully without the need to find per-task hard limits. Slowing misbehaving tasks down gradually allows user space oom killers or other protection mechanisms to react. oomd and earlyoom already do killing based on swap exhaustion, and memory.swap.high protection will help implement such userspace oom policies more reliably. We can use one counter for number of pages allocated under pressure to save struct task space and avoid two separate hierarchy walks on the hot path. The exact overage is calculated on return to user space, anyway. Take the new high limit into account when determining if swap is "full". Borrowing the explanation from Johannes: The idea behind "swap full" is that as long as the workload has plenty of swap space available and it's not changing its memory contents, it makes sense to generously hold on to copies of data in the swap device, even after the swapin. A later reclaim cycle can drop the page without any IO. Trading disk space for IO. But the only two ways to reclaim a swap slot is when they're faulted in and the references go away, or by scanning the virtual address space like swapoff does - which is very expensive (one could argue it's too expensive even for swapoff, it's often more practical to just reboot). So at some point in the fill level, we have to start freeing up swap slots on fault/swapin. Otherwise we could eventually run out of swap slots while they're filled with copies of data that is also in RAM. We don't want to OOM a workload because its available swap space is filled with redundant cache. Signed-off-by:

Patch series "memcg: Slow down swap allocation as the available space gets depleted", v6. Tejun describes the problem as follows: When swap runs out, there's an abrupt change in system behavior - the anonymous memory suddenly becomes unmanageable which readily breaks any sort of memory isolation and can bring down the whole system. To avoid that, oomd [1] monitors free swap space and triggers kills when it drops below the specific threshold (e.g. 15%). While this works, it's far from ideal: - Depending on IO performance and total swap size, a given headroom might not be enough or too much. - oomd has to monitor swap depletion in addition to the usual pressure metrics and it currently doesn't consider memory.swap.max. Solve this by adapting parts of the approach that memory.high uses - slow down allocation as the resource gets depleted turning the depletion behavior from abrupt cliff one to gradual degradation observable through memory pressure metric. [1] https://github.com/facebookincubator/oomd This patch (of 4): Slice the memory overage calculation logic a little bit so we can reuse it to apply a similar penalty to the swap. The logic which accesses the memory-specific fields (use and high values) has to be taken out of calculate_high_delay(). Signed-off-by:

One way to measure the efficiency of memory reclaim is to look at the ratio (pgscan+pfrefill)/pgsteal. However at the moment these stats are not updated consistently at the system level and the ratio of these are not very meaningful. The pgsteal and pgscan are updated for only global reclaim while pgrefill gets updated for global as well as cgroup reclaim. Please note that this difference is only for system level vmstats. The cgroup stats returned by memory.stat are actually consistent. The cgroup's pgsteal contains number of reclaimed pages for global as well as cgroup reclaim. So, one way to get the system level stats is to get these stats from root's memory.stat, so, expose memory.stat for the root cgroup. From Johannes Weiner: There are subtle differences between /proc/vmstat and memory.stat, and cgroup-aware code that wants to watch the full hierarchy currently has to know about these intricacies and translate semantics back and forth. Generally having the fully recursive memory.stat at the root level could help a broader range of usecases. Why not fix the stats by including both the global and cgroup reclaim activity instead of exposing root cgroup's memory.stat? The reason is the benefit of having metrics exposing the activity that happens purely due to machine capacity rather than localized activity that happens due to the limits throughout the cgroup tree. Additionally there are userspace tools like sysstat(sar) which reads these stats to inform about the system level reclaim activity. So, we should not break such use-cases. Suggested-by:

There's a new workingset counter introduced in commit 1899ad18 ("mm: workingset: tell cache transitions from workingset thrashing"). With the help of this counter we can know the workingset is transitioning or thrashing. To leverage the benifit of this counter to memcg, we should introduce it into memory.stat. Then we could know the workingset of the workload inside a memcg better. Bellow is the verification of this new counter in memory.stat. Read a file into the memory and then read it again to make these pages be active. The size of this file is 1G. (memory.max is greater than file size) The counters in memory.stat will be inactive_file 0 active_file 1073639424 workingset_refault 0 workingset_activate 0 workingset_restore 0 workingset_nodereclaim 0 Trigger the memcg reclaim by setting a lower value to memory.high, and then some pages will be demoted into inactive list, and then some pages in the inactive list will be evicted into the storage. inactive_file 498094080 active_file 310063104 workingset_refault 0 workingset_activate 0 workingset_restore 0 workingset_nodereclaim 0 Then recover the memory.high and read the file into memory again.

Fix the heading and Size/Used/Priority field alignments in /proc/swaps. If the Size and/or Used value is >= 10000000 (8 bytes), then the alignment by using tab characters is broken. This patch maintains the use of tabs for alignment. If spaces are preferred, we can just use a Field Width specifier for the bytes and inuse fields. That way those fields don't have to be a multiple of 8 bytes in width. E.g., with a field width of 12, both Size and Used would always fit on the first line of an 80-column wide terminal (only Priority would be on the second line). There are actually 2 problems: heading alignment and field width. On an xterm, if Used is 7 bytes in length, the tab does nothing, and the display is like this, with no space/tab between the Used and Priority fields. (ugh) Filename Type Size Used Priority /dev/sda8 partition 16779260 2023012-1 To be clear, if one does 'cat /proc/swaps >/tmp/proc.swaps', it does look different, like so: Filename Type Size Used Priority /dev/sda8 partition 16779260 2086988 -1 Signed-off-by:

In some swap scalability test, it is found that there are heavy lock contention on swap cache even if we have split one swap cache radix tree per swap device to one swap cache radix tree every 64 MB trunk in commit 4b3ef9da ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB trunks"). The reason is as follow. After the swap device becomes fragmented so that there's no free swap cluster, the swap device will be scanned linearly to find the free swap slots. swap_info_struct->cluster_next is the next scanning base that is shared by all CPUs. So nearby free swap slots will be allocated for different CPUs. The probability for multiple CPUs to operate on the same 64 MB trunk is high. This causes the lock contention on the swap cache. To solve the issue, in this patch, for SSD swap device, a percpu version next scanning base (cluster_next_cpu) is added. Every CPU will use its own per-cpu next scanning base. And after finishing scanning a 64MB trunk, the per-cpu scanning base will be changed to the beginning of another randomly selected 64MB trunk. In this way, the probability for multiple CPUs to operate on the same 64 MB trunk is reduced greatly. Thus the lock contention is reduced too. For HDD, because sequential access is more important for IO performance, the original shared next scanning base is used. To test the patch, we have run 16-process pmbench memory benchmark on a 2-socket server machine with 48 cores. One ram disk is configured as the swap device per socket. The pmbench working-set size is much larger than the available memory so that swapping is triggered. The memory read/write ratio is 80/20 and the accessing pattern is random. In the original implementation, the lock contention on the swap cache is heavy. The perf profiling data of the lock contention code path is as following, _raw_spin_lock_irq.add_to_swap_cache.add_to_swap.shrink_page_list: 7.91 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave.__remove_mapping.shrink_page_list: 7.11 _raw_spin_lock.swapcache_free_entries.free_swap_slot.__swap_entry_free: 2.51 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave.swap_cgroup_record.mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap: 1.66 _raw_spin_lock_irq.shrink_inactive_list.shrink_lruvec.shrink_node: 1.29 _raw_spin_lock.free_pcppages_bulk.drain_pages_zone.drain_pages: 1.03 _raw_spin_lock_irq.shrink_active_list.shrink_lruvec.shrink_node: 0.93 After applying this patch, it becomes, _raw_spin_lock.swapcache_free_entries.free_swap_slot.__swap_entry_free: 3.58 _raw_spin_lock_irq.shrink_inactive_list.shrink_lruvec.shrink_node: 2.3 _raw_spin_lock_irqsave.swap_cgroup_record.mem_cgroup_uncharge_swap: 2.26 _raw_spin_lock_irq.shrink_active_list.shrink_lruvec.shrink_node: 1.8 _raw_spin_lock.free_pcppages_bulk.drain_pages_zone.drain_pages: 1.19 The lock contention on the swap cache is almost eliminated. And the pmbench score increases 18.5%. The swapin throughput increases 18.7% from 2.96 GB/s to 3.51 GB/s. While the swapout throughput increases 18.5% from 2.99 GB/s to 3.54 GB/s. We need really fast disk to show the benefit. I have tried this on 2 Intel P3600 NVMe disks. The performance improvement is only about 1%. The improvement should be better on the faster disks, such as Intel Optane disk.
