      memory_hotplug: ensure every online node has NORMAL memory · 74d42d8f
      Lai Jiangshan authored
      Old memory hotplug code and new online/movable may cause a online node
      don't have any normal memory, but memory-management acts bad when we have
      nodes which is online but don't have any normal memory.  Example: it may
      cause a bound task fail on all kernel allocation and cause the task can't
      create task or create other kernel object.
      
      So we disable non-normal-memory-node here, we will enable it when we
      prepared.

      mm, memory-hotplug: dynamic configure movable memory and portion memory · 511c2aba
      Lai Jiangshan authored
      Add online_movable and online_kernel for logic memory hotplug.  This is
      the dynamic version of "movablecore" & "kernelcore".
      
      We have the same reason to introduce it as to introduce "movablecore" &
      "kernelcore".  It has the same motive as "movablecore" & "kernelcore", but
      it is dynamic/running-time:
      
      o We can configure memory as kernelcore or movablecore after boot.
      
        Userspace workload is increased, we need more hugepage, we can't use
        "online_movable" to add memory and allow the system use more
        THP(transparent-huge-page), vice-verse when kernel workload is increase.
      
        Also help for virtualization to dynamic configure host/guest's memory,
        to save/(reduce waste) memory.
      
        Memory capacity on Demand
      
      o When a new node is physically online after boot, we need to use
        "online_movable" or "online_kernel" to configure/portion it as we
        expected when we logic-online it.
      
        This configuration also helps for physically-memory-migrate.
      
      o all benefit as the same as existed "movablecore" & "kernelcore".
      
      o Preparing for movable-node, which is very important for power-saving,
        hardware partitioning and high-available-system(hardware fault
        management).
      
      (Note, we don't introduce movable-node here.)
      
      Action behavior:
      When a memoryblock/memorysection is onlined by "online_movable", the kernel
      will not have directly reference to the page of the memoryblock,
      thus we can remove that memory any time when needed.
      
      When it is online by "online_kernel", the kernel can use it.
      When it is online by "online", the zone type doesn't changed.
      
      Current constraints:
      Only the memoryblock which is adjacent to the ZONE_MOVABLE
      can be online from ZONE_NORMAL to ZONE_MOVABLE.

      bootmem: fix wrong call parameter for free_bootmem() · 81df9bff
      Joonsoo Kim authored
      It is strange that alloc_bootmem() returns a virtual address and
      free_bootmem() requires a physical address.  Anyway, free_bootmem()'s
      first parameter should be physical address.
      
      There are some call sites for free_bootmem() with virtual address.  So fix
      them.

      d95ea5d1 ("cma: fix watermark checking") introduced a reliable
      method of free page accounting when memory is being allocated from CMA

      ("mm: trigger page reclaim in alloc_contig_range() to stabilise

      mm, oom: fix race when specifying a thread as the oom origin · e1e12d2f
      David Rientjes authored
      test_set_oom_score_adj() and compare_swap_oom_score_adj() are used to
      specify that current should be killed first if an oom condition occurs in
      between the two calls.
      
      The usage is
      
      	short oom_score_adj = test_set_oom_score_adj(OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX);
      	...
      	compare_swap_oom_score_adj(OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX, oom_score_adj);
      
      to store the thread's oom_score_adj, temporarily change it to the maximum
      score possible, and then restore the old value if it is still the same.
      
      This happens to still be racy, however, if the user writes
      OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX to /proc/pid/oom_score_adj in between the two calls.
      The compare_swap_oom_score_adj() will then incorrectly reset the old value
      prior to the write of OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MAX.
      
      To fix this, introduce a new oom_flags_t member in struct signal_struct
      that will be used for per-thread oom killer flags.  KSM and swapoff can
      now use a bit in this member to specify that threads should be killed
      first in oom conditions without playing around with oom_score_adj.
      
      This also allows the correct oom_score_adj to always be shown when reading
      /proc/pid/oom_score.

      mm, oom: change type of oom_score_adj to short · a9c58b90
      David Rientjes authored
      The maximum oom_score_adj is 1000 and the minimum oom_score_adj is -1000,
      so this range can be represented by the signed short type with no
      functional change.  The extra space this frees up in struct signal_struct
      will be used for per-thread oom kill flags in the next patch.

      mm: introduce putback_movable_pages() · 5733c7d1
      Rafael Aquini authored
      The PATCH "mm: introduce compaction and migration for virtio ballooned pages"
      hacks around putback_lru_pages() in order to allow ballooned pages to be
      re-inserted on balloon page list as if a ballooned page was like a LRU page.
      
      As ballooned pages are not legitimate LRU pages, this patch introduces
      putback_movable_pages() to properly cope with cases where the isolated
      pageset contains ballooned pages and LRU pages, thus fixing the mentioned
      inelegant hack around putback_lru_pages().

      virtio_balloon: introduce migration primitives to balloon pages · e2250429
      Rafael Aquini authored
      Memory fragmentation introduced by ballooning might reduce significantly
      the number of 2MB contiguous memory blocks that can be used within a guest,
      thus imposing performance penalties associated with the reduced number of
      transparent huge pages that could be used by the guest workload.
      
      Besides making balloon pages movable at allocation time and introducing
      the necessary primitives to perform balloon page migration/compaction,
      this patch also introduces the following locking scheme, in order to
      enhance the syncronization methods for accessing elements of struct
      virtio_balloon, thus providing protection against concurrent access
      introduced by parallel memory migration threads.
      
       - balloon_lock (mutex) : synchronizes the access demand to elements of
                                struct virtio_balloon and its queue operations;

      transparent huge pages that could be used by the guest workload.
      
      This patch introduces a common interface to help a balloon driver on
      making its page set movable to compaction, and thus allowing the system
      to better leverage the compation efforts on memory defragmentation.

      mm: redefine address_space.assoc_mapping · 252aa6f5
      Rafael Aquini authored
      Overhaul struct address_space.assoc_mapping renaming it to
      address_space.private_data and its type is redefined to void*.  By this
      approach we consistently name the .private_* elements from struct
      address_space as well as allow extended usage for address_space
      association with other data structures through ->private_data.
      
      Also, all users of old ->assoc_mapping element are converted to reflect
      its new name and type change (->private_data).

      mm: adjust address_space_operations.migratepage() return code · 78bd5209
      Rafael Aquini authored
      Memory fragmentation introduced by ballooning might reduce significantly
      the number of 2MB contiguous memory blocks that can be used within a
      guest, thus imposing performance penalties associated with the reduced
      number of transparent huge pages that could be used by the guest workload.
      
      This patch-set follows the main idea discussed at 2012 LSFMMS session:
      "Ballooning for transparent huge pages" -- http://lwn.net/Articles/490114/
      to introduce the required changes to the virtio_balloon driver, as well as
      the changes to the core compaction & migration bits, in order to make
      those subsystems aware of ballooned pages and allow memory balloon pages
      become movable within a guest, thus avoiding the aforementioned
      fragmentation issue
      
      Following are numbers that prove this patch benefits on allowing
      compaction to be more effective at memory ballooned guests.
      
      Results for STRESS-HIGHALLOC benchmark, from Mel Gorman's mmtests suite,
      running on a 4gB RAM KVM guest which was ballooning 512mB RAM in 64mB
      chunks, at every minute (inflating/deflating), while test was running:

      mm: fix cache coloring on x86_64 architecture · 7d025059
      Michel Lespinasse authored
      Fix the x86-64 cache alignment code to take pgoff into account.  Use the
      x86 and MIPS cache alignment code as the basis for a generic cache
      alignment function.
      
      The old x86 code will always align the mmap to aliasing boundaries,
      even if the program mmaps the file with a non-zero pgoff.
      
      If program A mmaps the file with pgoff 0, and program B mmaps the file
      with pgoff 1.  The old code would align the mmaps, resulting in misaligned
      pages:

      mm: vm_unmapped_area() lookup function · db4fbfb9
      Michel Lespinasse authored
      Implement vm_unmapped_area() using the rb_subtree_gap and highest_vm_end
      information to look up for suitable virtual address space gaps.
      
      struct vm_unmapped_area_info is used to define the desired allocation
      request:
       - lowest or highest possible address matching the remaining constraints
       - desired gap length
       - low/high address limits that the gap must fit into
       - alignment mask and offset
      
      Also update the generic arch_get_unmapped_area[_topdown] functions to make
      use of vm_unmapped_area() instead of implementing a brute force search.

      mm: rearrange vm_area_struct for fewer cache misses · e4c6bfd2
      Rik van Riel authored
      The kernel walks the VMA rbtree in various places, including the page
      fault path.  However, the vm_rb node spanned two cache lines, on 64 bit
      systems with 64 byte cache lines (most x86 systems).
      
      Rearrange vm_area_struct a little, so all the information we need to do a
      VMA tree walk is in the first cache line.

      mm: augment vma rbtree with rb_subtree_gap · d3737187
      Michel Lespinasse authored
      Define vma->rb_subtree_gap as the largest gap between any vma in the
      subtree rooted at that vma, and their predecessor.  Or, for a recursive
      definition, vma->rb_subtree_gap is the max of:
      
       - vma->vm_start - vma->vm_prev->vm_end
       - rb_subtree_gap fields of the vmas pointed by vma->rb.rb_left and
         vma->rb.rb_right
      
      This will allow get_unmapped_area_* to find a free area of the right
      size in O(log(N)) time, instead of potentially having to do a linear
      walk across all the VMAs.
      
      Also define mm->highest_vm_end as the vm_end field of the highest vma,
      so that we can easily check if the following gap is suitable.
      
      This does have the potential to make unmapping VMAs more expensive,
      especially for processes with very large numbers of VMAs, where the VMA
      rbtree can grow quite deep.

      mm: support more pagesizes for MAP_HUGETLB/SHM_HUGETLB · 42d7395f
      Andi Kleen authored
      There was some desire in large applications using MAP_HUGETLB or
      SHM_HUGETLB to use 1GB huge pages on some mappings, and stay with 2MB on
      others.  This is useful together with NUMA policy: use 2MB interleaving
      on some mappings, but 1GB on local mappings.
      
      This patch extends the IPC/SHM syscall interfaces slightly to allow
      specifying the page size.
      
      It borrows some upper bits in the existing flag arguments and allows
      encoding the log of the desired page size in addition to the *_HUGETLB
      flag.  When 0 is specified the default size is used, this makes the
      change fully compatible.
      
      Extending the internal hugetlb code to handle this is straight forward.
      Instead of a single mount it just keeps an array of them and selects the
      right mount based on the specified page size.  When no page size is
      specified it uses the mount of the default page size.
      
      The change is not visible in /proc/mounts because internal mounts don't
      appear there.  It also has very little overhead: the additional mounts
      just consume a super block, but not more memory when not used.
      
      I also exported the new flags to the user headers (they were previously
      under __KERNEL__).  Right now only symbols for x86 and some other
      architecture for 1GB and 2MB are defined.  The interface should already
      work for all other architectures though.  Only architectures that define
      multiple hugetlb sizes actually need it (that is currently x86, tile,
      powerpc).  However tile and powerpc have user configurable hugetlb
      sizes, so it's not easy to add defines.  A program on those
      architectures would need to query sysfs and use the appropiate log2.

      mm: hwpoison: fix action_result() to print out dirty/clean · ff604cf6
      Naoya Horiguchi authored
      action_result() fails to print out "dirty" even if an error occurred on
      a dirty pagecache, because when we check PageDirty in action_result() it
      was cleared after page isolation even if it's dirty before error
      handling.  This can break some applications that monitor this message,
      so should be fixed.
      
      There are several callers of action_result() except page_action(), but
      either of them are not for LRU pages but for free pages or kernel pages,
      so we don't have to consider dirty or not for them.
      
      Note that PG_dirty can be set outside page locks as described in commit
      6746aff7 ("HWPOISON: shmem: call set_page_dirty() with locked
      page"), so this patch does not completely closes the race window, but
      just narrows it.
