This patch adds other known rfc6282 compression formats to the nhc framework. These compression formats are known but not implemented yet. For now this is useful to printout a warning which compression format isn't supported. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds a generic next header compression layer interface. There exists various methods to do a header compression after 6LoWPAN header to save payload. This introduce a generic nhc header which allow a simple adding of a new header compression format instead of a static implementation inside the 6LoWPAN header compression and uncompression function.

If user space is trying to pair on not enabled transport MGMT_STATUS_REJECT will be returned. If user space is trying to pair on transport which controller does not support, MGMT_STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED will be returned. Having separate error code for that scenario might be useful for debugging at least. Signed-off-by:

Kernel gives possibility to enable/disable LE host support. There is flag HCI_LE_ENABLED which is set when this support is enabled and some parts of the code checks this flag e.g. SMP However it is still possible to make LE connection if LE Host support is disabled, what might be confused for remote device. This patch makes sure that kernel will not send HCI LE Create Connection if LE HOST support is not enabled. Signed-off-by:

6LoWPAN currently doesn't supports x-netns and works only in init_net. With this patch, we ensure that: - the wpan interface cannot be moved to another netns; - the 6lowpan interface cannot be moved to another netns; - the wpan interface is in the same netns than the 6lowpan interface; - the 6lowpan interface is in init_net.

I noticed that "allowed" can easily overflow by falling below 0, because (total_vm / 32) can be larger than "allowed". The problem occurs in OVERCOMMIT_NONE mode. In this case, a huge allocation can success and overcommit the system (despite OVERCOMMIT_NONE mode). All subsequent allocations will fall (system-wide), so system become unusable. The problem was masked out by commit c9b1d098 ("mm: limit growth of 3% hardcoded other user reserve"), but it's easy to reproduce it on older kernels: 1) set overcommit_memory sysctl to 2 2) mmap() large file multiple times (with VM_SHARED flag) 3) try to malloc() large amount of memory It also can be reproduced on newer kernels, but miss-configured sysctl_user_reserve_kbytes is required.

It was noted that the vm stat shepherd runs every 2 seconds and that the vmstat update is then scheduled 2 seconds in the future. This yields an interval of double the time interval which is not desired. Change the shepherd so that it does not delay the vmstat update on the other cpu. We stil have to use schedule_delayed_work since we are using a delayed_work_struct but we can set the delay to 0. Signed-off-by:

Page owner uses the page_ext structure to keep meta-information for every page in the system. The structure also contains a field of type 'struct stack_trace', page owner uses this field during invocation of the function save_stack_trace. It is easy to notice that keeping a copy of this structure for every page in the system is very inefficiently in terms of memory. The patch removes this unnecessary field of page_ext and forces page owner to use a stack_trace structure allocated on the stack. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: use struct initializers] Signed-off-by:

This patch aims to improve THP collapse rates, by allowing THP collapse in the presence of read-only ptes, like those left in place by do_swap_page after a read fault. Currently THP can collapse 4kB pages into a THP when there are up to khugepaged_max_ptes_none pte_none ptes in a 2MB range. This patch applies the same limit for read-only ptes. The patch was tested with a test program that allocates 800MB of memory, writes to it, and then sleeps. I force the system to swap out all but 190MB of the program by touching other memory. Afterwards, the test program does a mix of reads and writes to its memory, and the memory gets swapped back in. Without the patch, only the memory that did not get swapped out remained in THPs, which corresponds to 24% of the memory of the program. The percentage did not increase over time. With this patch, after 5 minutes of waiting khugepaged had collapsed 50% of the program's memory back into THPs.

Vinayak Menon has reported that an excessive number of tasks was throttled in the direct reclaim inside too_many_isolated() because NR_ISOLATED_FILE was relatively high compared to NR_INACTIVE_FILE. However it turned out that the real number of NR_ISOLATED_FILE was 0 and the per-cpu vm_stat_diff wasn't transferred into the global counter. vmstat_work which is responsible for the sync is defined as deferrable delayed work which means that the defined timeout doesn't wake up an idle CPU. A CPU might stay in an idle state for a long time and general effort is to keep such a CPU in this state as long as possible which might lead to all sorts of troubles for vmstat consumers as can be seen with the excessive direct reclaim throttling. This patch basically reverts 39bf6270 ("VM statistics: Make timer deferrable") but it shouldn't cause any problems for idle CPUs because only CPUs with an active per-cpu drift are woken up since 7cc36bbd ("vmstat: on-demand vmstat workers v8") and CPUs which are idle for a longer time shouldn't have per-cpu drift.

When allocation falls back to stealing free pages of another migratetype, it can decide to steal extra pages, or even the whole pageblock in order to reduce fragmentation, which could happen if further allocation fallbacks pick a different pageblock. In try_to_steal_freepages(), one of the situations where extra pages are stolen happens when we are trying to allocate a MIGRATE_RECLAIMABLE page. However, MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE allocations are not treated the same way, although spreading such allocation over multiple fallback pageblocks is arguably even worse than it is for RECLAIMABLE allocations. To minimize fragmentation, we should minimize the number of such fallbacks, and thus steal as much as is possible from each fallback pageblock. Note that in theory this might put more pressure on movable pageblocks and cause movable allocations to steal back from unmovable pageblocks. However, movable allocations are not as aggressive with stealing, and do not cause permanent fragmentation, so the tradeoff is reasonable, and evaluation seems to support the change. This patch thus adds a check for MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE to the decision to steal extra free pages. When evaluating with stress-highalloc from mmtests, this has reduced the number of MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE fallbacks to roughly 1/6. The number of these fallbacks stealing from MIGRATE_MOVABLE block is reduced to 1/3. There was no observation of growing number of unmovable pageblocks over time, and also not of increased movable allocation fallbacks. Signed-off-by:

When allocation falls back to another migratetype, it will steal a page with highest available order, and (depending on this order and desired migratetype), it might also steal the rest of free pages from the same pageblock. Given the preference of highest available order, it is likely that it will be higher than the desired order, and result in the stolen buddy page being split. The remaining pages after split are currently stolen only when the rest of the free pages are stolen. This can however lead to situations where for MOVABLE allocations we split e.g. order-4 fallback UNMOVABLE page, but steal only order-0 page. Then on the next MOVABLE allocation (which may be batched to fill the pcplists) we split another order-3 or higher page, etc. By stealing all pages that we have split, we can avoid further stealing. This patch therefore adjusts the page stealing so that buddy pages created by split are always stolen. This has effect only on MOVABLE allocations, as RECLAIMABLE and UNMOVABLE allocations already always do that in addition to stealing the rest of free pages from the pageblock. The change also allows to simplify try_to_steal_freepages() and factor out CMA handling. According to Mel, it has been intended since the beginning that buddy pages after split would be stolen always, but it doesn't seem like it was ever the case until commit 47118af0 ("mm: mmzone: MIGRATE_CMA migration type added"). The commit has unintentionally introduced this behavior, but was reverted by commit 0cbef29a ("mm: __rmqueue_fallback() should respect pageblock type"). Neither included evaluation. My evaluation with stress-highalloc from mmtests shows about 2.5x reduction of page stealing events for MOVABLE allocations, without affecting the page stealing events for other allocation migratetypes.

When studying page stealing, I noticed some weird looking decisions in try_to_steal_freepages(). The first I assume is a bug (Patch 1), the following two patches were driven by evaluation. Testing was done with stress-highalloc of mmtests, using the mm_page_alloc_extfrag tracepoint and postprocessing to get counts of how often page stealing occurs for individual migratetypes, and what migratetypes are used for fallbacks. Arguably, the worst case of page stealing is when UNMOVABLE allocation steals from MOVABLE pageblock. RECLAIMABLE allocation stealing from MOVABLE allocation is also not ideal, so the goal is to minimize these two cases. The evaluation of v2 wasn't always clear win and Joonsoo questioned the results. Here I used different baseline which includes RFC compaction improvements from [1]. I found that the compaction improvements reduce variability of stress-highalloc, so there's less noise in the data. First, let's look at stress-highalloc configured to do sync compaction, and how these patches reduce page stealing events during the test. First column is after fresh reboot, other two are reiterations of test without reboot. That was all accumulater over 5 re-iterations (so the benchmark was run 5x3 times with 5 fresh restarts).

Here, each patch improves the situation for unmovable events. Reclaimable is improved by patch 1 and then either the same modulo noise, or perhaps sligtly worse - a small price for unmovable improvements, IMHO. The number of movable allocations falling back to other migratetypes is most noisy, but it's reduced to half at Patch 2 nevertheless. These are least critical as compaction can move them around. If we look at success rates, the patches don't affect them, that didn't change.

Configuring the benchmark to allocate like THP page fault (i.e. no sync compaction) gives much noisier results for iterations 2 and 3 after reboot. This is not so surprising given how [1] offers lower improvements in this scenario due to less restarts after deferred compaction which would change compaction pivot.

Anyway, patch 2 rectifies it. Allocation success rates are again unaffected so there's no point in making this e-mail any longer. [1] http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=142166196321125&w=2 This patch (of 3): When __rmqueue_fallback() is called to allocate a page of order X, it will find a page of order Y >= X of a fallback migratetype, which is different from the desired migratetype. With the help of try_to_steal_freepages(), it may change the migratetype (to the desired one) also of: 1) all currently free pages in the pageblock containing the fallback page 2) the fallback pageblock itself 3) buddy pages created by splitting the fallback page (when Y > X) These decisions take the order Y into account, as well as the desired migratetype, with the goal of preventing multiple fallback allocations that could e.g. distribute UNMOVABLE allocations among multiple pageblocks. Originally, decision for 1) has implied the decision for 3). Commit 47118af0 ("mm: mmzone: MIGRATE_CMA migration type added") changed that (probably unintentionally) so that the buddy pages in case 3) are always changed to the desired migratetype, except for CMA pageblocks. Commit fef903ef ("mm/page_allo.c: restructure free-page stealing code and fix a bug") did some refactoring and added a comment that the case of 3) is intended. Commit 0cbef29a ("mm: __rmqueue_fallback() should respect pageblock type") removed the comment and tried to restore the original behavior where 1) implies 3), but due to the previous refactoring, the result is instead that only 2) implies 3) - and the conditions for 2) are less frequently met than conditions for 1). This may increase fragmentation in situations where the code decides to steal all free pages from the pageblock (case 1)), but then gives back the buddy pages produced by splitting. This patch restores the original intended logic where 1) implies 3). During testing with stress-highalloc from mmtests, this has shown to decrease the number of events where UNMOVABLE and RECLAIMABLE allocations steal from MOVABLE pageblocks, which can lead to permanent fragmentation. In some cases it has increased the number of events when MOVABLE allocations steal from UNMOVABLE or RECLAIMABLE pageblocks, but these are fixable by sync compaction and thus less harmful. Note that evaluation has shown that the behavior introduced by 47118af0 for buddy pages in case 3) is actually even better than the original logic, so the following patch will introduce it properly once again. For stable backports of this patch it makes thus sense to only fix versions containing 0cbef29a. [iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com: tracepoint fix] Signed-off-by: -

Currently pagewalker splits all THP pages on any clear_refs request. It's not necessary. We can handle this on PMD level. One side effect is that soft dirty will potentially see more dirty memory, since we will mark whole THP page dirty at once. Sanity checked with CRIU test suite. More testing is required.

walk_page_range() silently skips vma having VM_PFNMAP set, which leads to undesirable behaviour at client end (who called walk_page_range). For example for pagemap_read(), when no callbacks are called against VM_PFNMAP vma, pagemap_read() may prepare pagemap data for next virtual address range at wrong index. That could confuse and/or break userspace applications. This patch avoid this misbehavior caused by vma(VM_PFNMAP) like follows: - for pagemap_read() which has its own ->pte_hole(), call the ->pte_hole() over vma(VM_PFNMAP), - for clear_refs and queue_pages which have their own ->tests_walk, just return 1 and skip vma(VM_PFNMAP). This is no problem because these are not interested in hole regions, - for other callers, just skip the vma(VM_PFNMAP) as a default behavior. Signed-off-by:

queue_pages_range() does page table walking in its own way now, but there is some code duplicate. This patch applies page table walker to reduce lines of code. queue_pages_range() has to do some precheck to determine whether we really walk over the vma or just skip it. Now we have test_walk() callback in mm_walk for this purpose, so we can do this replacement cleanly. queue_pages_test_walk() depends on not only the current vma but also the previous one, so queue_pages->prev is introduced to remember it.
