      mm: compaction: make isolate_lru_page() filter-aware again · c8244935
      Mel Gorman authored
      Commit 39deaf85 ("mm: compaction: make isolate_lru_page() filter-aware")
      noted that compaction does not migrate dirty or writeback pages and that
      is was meaningless to pick the page and re-add it to the LRU list.  This
      had to be partially reverted because some dirty pages can be migrated by
      compaction without blocking.
      
      This patch updates "mm: compaction: make isolate_lru_page" by skipping
      over pages that migration has no possibility of migrating to minimise LRU
      disruption.

      mm: compaction: determine if dirty pages can be migrated without blocking within ->migratepage · b969c4ab
      Mel Gorman authored
      Asynchronous compaction is used when allocating transparent hugepages to
      avoid blocking for long periods of time.  Due to reports of stalling,
      there was a debate on disabling synchronous compaction but this severely
      impacted allocation success rates.  Part of the reason was that many dirty
      pages are skipped in asynchronous compaction by the following check;
      
      	if (PageDirty(page) && !sync &&
      		mapping->a_ops->migratepage != migrate_page)
      			rc = -EBUSY;
      
      This skips over all mapping aops using buffer_migrate_page() even though
      it is possible to migrate some of these pages without blocking.  This
      patch updates the ->migratepage callback with a "sync" parameter.  It is
      the responsibility of the callback to fail gracefully if migration would
      block.

      mm: vmscan: do not OOM if aborting reclaim to start compaction · 7335084d
      Mel Gorman authored
      During direct reclaim it is possible that reclaim will be aborted so that
      compaction can be attempted to satisfy a high-order allocation.  If this
      decision is made before any pages are reclaimed, it is possible that 0 is
      returned to the page allocator potentially triggering an OOM.  This has
      not been observed but it is a possibility so this patch addresses it.

      mm: vmscan: check if we isolated a compound page during lumpy scan · 50134731
      Andrea Arcangeli authored
      Properly take into account if we isolated a compound page during the lumpy
      scan in reclaim and skip over the tail pages when encountered.  This
      corrects the values given to the tracepoint for number of lumpy pages
      isolated and will avoid breaking the loop early if compound pages smaller
      than the requested allocation size are requested.

      mm: compaction: use synchronous compaction for /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory · b16d3d5a
      Mel Gorman authored
      When asynchronous compaction was introduced, the
      /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory handler should have been updated to always use
      synchronous compaction.  This did not happen so this patch addresses it.
      
      The assumption is if a user writes to /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory, they
      are willing for that process to stall.

      mm: compaction: allow compaction to isolate dirty pages · a77ebd33
      Mel Gorman authored
      Short summary: There are severe stalls when a USB stick using VFAT is
      used with THP enabled that are reduced by this series.  If you are
      experiencing this problem, please test and report back and considering I
      have seen complaints from openSUSE and Fedora users on this as well as a
      few private mails, I'm guessing it's a widespread issue.  This is a new
      type of USB-related stall because it is due to synchronous compaction
      writing where as in the past the big problem was dirty pages reaching
      the end of the LRU and being written by reclaim.
      
      Am cc'ing Andrew this time and this series would replace
      mm-do-not-stall-in-synchronous-compaction-for-thp-allocations.patch.
      I'm also cc'ing Dave Jones as he might have merged that patch to Fedora
      for wider testing and ideally it would be reverted and replaced by this
      series.
      
      That said, the later patches could really do with some review.  If this
      series is not the answer then a new direction needs to be discussed
      because as it is, the stalls are unacceptable as the results in this
      leader show.
      
      For testers that try backporting this to 3.1, it won't work because
      there is a non-obvious dependency on not writing back pages in direct
      reclaim so you need those patches too.
      
      Changelog since V5
      o Rebase to 3.2-rc5
      o Tidy up the changelogs a bit
      
      Changelog since V4
      o Added reviewed-bys, credited Andrea properly for sync-light
      o Allow dirty pages without mappings to be considered for migration
      o Bound the number of pages freed for compaction
      o Isolate PageReclaim pages on their own LRU list
      
      This is against 3.2-rc5 and follows on from discussions on "mm: Do
      not stall in synchronous compaction for THP allocations" and "[RFC
      PATCH 0/5] Reduce compaction-related stalls". Initially, the proposed
      patch eliminated stalls due to compaction which sometimes resulted in
      user-visible interactivity problems on browsers by simply never using
      sync compaction. The downside was that THP success allocation rates
      were lower because dirty pages were not being migrated as reported by
      Andrea. His approach at fixing this was nacked on the grounds that
      it reverted fixes from Rik merged that reduced the amount of pages
      reclaimed as it severely impacted his workloads performance.
      
      This series attempts to reconcile the requirements of maximising THP
      usage, without stalling in a user-visible fashion due to compaction
      or cheating by reclaiming an excessive number of pages.
      
      Patch 1 partially reverts commit 39deaf85 to allow migration to isolate
      	dirty pages. This is because migration can move some dirty
      	pages without blocking.
      
      Patch 2 notes that the /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory handler is not using
      	synchronous compaction when it should be. This is unrelated
      	to the reported stalls but is worth fixing.
      
      Patch 3 checks if we isolated a compound page during lumpy scan and
      	account for it properly. For the most part, this affects
      	tracing so it's unrelated to the stalls but worth fixing.
      
      Patch 4 notes that it is possible to abort reclaim early for compaction
      	and return 0 to the page allocator potentially entering the
      	"may oom" path. This has not been observed in practice but
      	the rest of the series potentially makes it easier to happen.
      
      Patch 5 adds a sync parameter to the migratepage callback and gives
      	the callback responsibility for migrating the page without
      	blocking if sync==false. For example, fallback_migrate_page
      	will not call writepage if sync==false. This increases the
      	number of pages that can be handled by asynchronous compaction
      	thereby reducing stalls.
      
      Patch 6 restores filter-awareness to isolate_lru_page for migration.
      	In practice, it means that pages under writeback and pages
      	without a ->migratepage callback will not be isolated
      	for migration.
      
      Patch 7 avoids calling direct reclaim if compaction is deferred but
      	makes sure that compaction is only deferred if sync
      	compaction was used.
      
      Patch 8 introduces a sync-light migration mechanism that sync compaction
      	uses. The objective is to allow some stalls but to not call
      	->writepage which can lead to significant user-visible stalls.
      
      Patch 9 notes that while we want to abort reclaim ASAP to allow
      	compation to go ahead that we leave a very small window of
      	opportunity for compaction to run. This patch allows more pages
      	to be freed by reclaim but bounds the number to a reasonable
      	level based on the high watermark on each zone.
      
      Patch 10 allows slabs to be shrunk even after compaction_ready() is
      	true for one zone. This is to avoid a problem whereby a single
      	small zone can abort reclaim even though no pages have been
      	reclaimed and no suitably large zone is in a usable state.
      
      Patch 11 fixes a problem with the rate of page scanning. As reclaim is
      	rarely stalling on pages under writeback it means that scan
      	rates are very high. This is particularly true for direct
      	reclaim which is not calling writepage. The vmstat figures
      	implied that much of this was busy work with PageReclaim pages
      	marked for immediate reclaim. This patch is a prototype that
      	moves these pages to their own LRU list.
      
      This has been tested and other than 2 USB keys getting trashed,
      nothing horrible fell out. That said, I am a bit unhappy with the
      rescue logic in patch 11 but did not find a better way around it. It
      does significantly reduce scan rates and System CPU time indicating
      it is the right direction to take.
      
      What is of critical importance is that stalls due to compaction
      are massively reduced even though sync compaction was still
      allowed. Testing from people complaining about stalls copying to USBs
      with THP enabled are particularly welcome.
      
      The following tests all involve THP usage and USB keys in some
      way. Each test follows this type of pattern
      
      1. Read from some fast fast storage, be it raw device or file. Each time
         the copy finishes, start again until the test ends
      2. Write a large file to a filesystem on a USB stick. Each time the copy
         finishes, start again until the test ends
      3. When memory is low, start an alloc process that creates a mapping
         the size of physical memory to stress THP allocation. This is the
         "real" part of the test and the part that is meant to trigger
         stalls when THP is enabled. Copying continues in the background.
      4. Record the CPU usage and time to execute of the alloc process
      5. Record the number of THP allocs and fallbacks as well as the number of THP
         pages in use a the end of the test just before alloc exited
      6. Run the test 5 times to get an idea of variability
      7. Between each run, sync is run and caches dropped and the test
         waits until nr_dirty is a small number to avoid interference
         or caching between iterations that would skew the figures.
      
      The individual tests were then

      The THP figures are obviously all 0 because THP was enabled. The

      times when THP is enabled later. It's also important to note that
      elapsed time is improved by this series as System CPu time is much
      reduced.

      The first thing to note is the "Elapsed Time" for the vanilla kernels
      of 2249 seconds versus 56 with THP disabled which might explain the
      reports of USB stalls with THP enabled. Applying the patches brings
      performance in line with THP-disabled performance while isolating
      pages for immediate reclaim from the LRU cuts down System CPU time.
      
      The "Fault Alloc" success rate figures are also improved. The vanilla
      kernel only managed to allocate 76.6 pages on average over the course
      of 5 iterations where as applying the series allocated 181.20 on
      average albeit it is well within variance. It's worth noting that
      applies the series at least descreases the amount of variance which
      implies an improvement.
      
      Andrea's series had a higher success rate for THP allocations but
      at a severe cost to elapsed time which is still better than vanilla
      but still much worse than disabling THP altogether. One can bring my
      series close to Andrea's by removing this check
      
              /*
               * If compaction is deferred for high-order allocations, it is because
               * sync compaction recently failed. In this is the case and the caller
               * has requested the system not be heavily disrupted, fail the
               * allocation now instead of entering direct reclaim
               */
              if (deferred_compaction && (gfp_mask & __GFP_NO_KSWAPD))
                      goto nopage;
      
      I didn't include a patch that removed the above check because hurting
      overall performance to improve the THP figure is not what the average
      user wants. It's something to consider though if someone really wants
      to maximise THP usage no matter what it does to the workload initially.

      The main things to look at are
      
      1. Page In/out figures are much reduced by the series.
      
      2. Direct page scanning is incredibly high (264745.137 pages scanned
         per second on the vanilla kernel) but isolating PageReclaim pages
         on their own list reduces the number of pages scanned significantly.
      
      3. The fact that "Page rescued immediate" is a positive number implies
         that we sometimes race removing pages from the LRU_IMMEDIATE list
         that need to be put back on a normal LRU but it happens only for
         0.07% of the pages marked for immediate reclaim.

      Similar test but the USB stick is using ext4 instead of vfat. As
      ext4 does not use writepage for migration, the large stalls due to
      compaction when THP is enabled are not observed. Still, isolating
      PageReclaim pages on their own list helped completion time largely
      by reducing the number of pages scanned by direct reclaim although
      time spend in congestion_wait could also be a factor.
      
      Again, Andrea's series had far higher success rates for THP allocation
      at the cost of elapsed time. I didn't look too closely but a quick
      look at the vmstat figures tells me kswapd reclaimed 8 times more pages
      than the patch series and direct reclaim reclaimed roughly three times
      as many pages. It follows that if memory is aggressively reclaimed,
      there will be more available for THP.

      In this case, the test is reading/writing only from filesystems but as
      it's vfat, it's slow due to calling writepage during compaction. Little
      to observe really - the time to complete the test goes way down
      with the series applied and THP allocation success rates go up in
      comparison to 3.2-rc5.  The success rates are lower than 3.1.0 but
      the elapsed time for that kernel is abysmal so it is not really a
      sensible comparison.
      
      As before, Andrea's series allocates more THPs at the cost of overall
      performance.

      Same type of story - elapsed times go down. In this case, allocation
      success rates are roughtly the same. As before, Andrea's has higher
      success rates but takes a lot longer.
      
      Overall the series does reduce latencies and while the tests are
      inherency racy as alloc competes with the cp processes, the variability
      was included. The THP allocation rates are not as high as they could
      be but that is because we would have to be more aggressive about
      reclaim and compaction impacting overall performance.
      
      This patch:
      
      Commit 39deaf85 ("mm: compaction: make isolate_lru_page() filter-aware")
      noted that compaction does not migrate dirty or writeback pages and that
      is was meaningless to pick the page and re-add it to the LRU list.
      
      What was missed during review is that asynchronous migration moves dirty
      pages if their ->migratepage callback is migrate_page() because these can
      be moved without blocking.  This potentially impacted hugepage allocation
      success rates by a factor depending on how many dirty pages are in the
      system.
      
      This patch partially reverts 39deaf85 to allow migration to isolate dirty
      pages again.  This increases how much compaction disrupts the LRU but that
      is addressed later in the series.

      Tao Ma authored
      In trace_mm_vmscan_lru_isolate(), we don't output 'file' information to
      the trace event and it is a bit inconvenient for the user to get the
      real information(like pasted below).  mm_vmscan_lru_isolate:
      isolate_mode=2 order=0 nr_requested=32 nr_scanned=32 nr_taken=32
      contig_taken=0 contig_dirty=0 contig_failed=0
      
      'active' can be obtained by analyzing mode(Thanks go to Minchan and
      Mel), So this patch adds 'file' to the trace event and it now looks
      like: mm_vmscan_lru_isolate: isolate_mode=2 order=0 nr_requested=32
      nr_scanned=32 nr_taken=32 contig_taken=0 contig_dirty=0 contig_failed=0

      thp: add tlb_remove_pmd_tlb_entry · f21760b1
      Shaohua Li authored
      We have tlb_remove_tlb_entry to indicate a pte tlb flush entry should be
      flushed, but not a corresponding API for pmd entry.  This isn't a
      problem so far because THP is only for x86 currently and tlb_flush()
      under x86 will flush entire TLB.  But this is confusion and could be
      missed if thp is ported to other arch.
      
      Also convert tlb->need_flush = 1 to a VM_BUG_ON(!tlb->need_flush) in
      __tlb_remove_page() as suggested by Andrea Arcangeli.  The
      __tlb_remove_page() function is supposed to be called after
      tlb_remove_xxx_tlb_entry() and we can catch any misuse.

      memcg: simplify LRU handling by new rule · 38c5d72f
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki authored
      Now, at LRU handling, memory cgroup needs to do complicated works to see
      valid pc->mem_cgroup, which may be overwritten.
      
      This patch is for relaxing the protocol. This patch guarantees
         - when pc->mem_cgroup is overwritten, page must not be on LRU.
      
      By this, LRU routine can believe pc->mem_cgroup and don't need to check
      bits on pc->flags.  This new rule may adds small overheads to swapin.  But
      in most case, lru handling gets faster.
      
      After this patch, PCG_ACCT_LRU bit is obsolete and removed.

      memcg: clear pc->mem_cgroup if necessary. · 4e5f01c2
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki authored
      This is a preparation before removing a flag PCG_ACCT_LRU in page_cgroup
      and reducing atomic ops/complexity in memcg LRU handling.
      
      In some cases, pages are added to lru before charge to memcg and pages
      are not classfied to memory cgroup at lru addtion.  Now, the lru where
      the page should be added is determined a bit in page_cgroup->flags and
      pc->mem_cgroup.  I'd like to remove the check of flag.
      
      To handle the case pc->mem_cgroup may contain stale pointers if pages
      are added to LRU before classification.  This patch resets
      pc->mem_cgroup to root_mem_cgroup before lru additions.

      memcg: simplify corner case handling of LRU. · 36b62ad5
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki authored
      This patch simplifies LRU handling of racy case (memcg+SwapCache).  At
      charging, SwapCache tend to be on LRU already.  So, before overwriting
      pc->mem_cgroup, the page must be removed from LRU and added to LRU
      later.
      
      This patch does
              spin_lock(zone->lru_lock);
              if (PageLRU(page))
                      remove from LRU

                      add to new LRU.
              spin_unlock(zone->lru_lock);
      
      And guarantee all pages are not on LRU at modifying pc->mem_cgroup.
      This patch also unfies lru handling of replace_page_cache() and

      memcg: simplify page cache charging · dc67d504
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki authored
      This patch is a clean up. No functional/logical changes.
      
      Because of commit ef6a3c63 ("mm: add replace_page_cache_page()
      function") , FUSE uses replace_page_cache() instead of
      add_to_page_cache().  Then, mem_cgroup_cache_charge() is not called
      against FUSE's pages from splice.
      
      So now, mem_cgroup_cache_charge() gets pages that are not on the LRU
      with the exception of PageSwapCache pages.  For checking,
      WARN_ON_ONCE(PageLRU(page)) is added.

      oom, memcg: fix exclusion of memcg threads after they have detached their mm · de077d22
      David Rientjes authored
      The oom killer relies on logic that identifies threads that have already
      been oom killed when scanning the tasklist and, if found, deferring
      until such threads have exited.  This is done by checking for any
      candidate threads that have the TIF_MEMDIE bit set.
      
      For memcg ooms, candidate threads are first found by calling
      task_in_mem_cgroup() since the oom killer should not defer if there's an
      oom killed thread in another memcg.
      
      Unfortunately, task_in_mem_cgroup() excludes threads if they have
      detached their mm in the process of exiting so TIF_MEMDIE is never
      detected for such conditions.  This is different for global, mempolicy,
      and cpuset oom conditions where a detached mm is only excluded after
      checking for TIF_MEMDIE and deferring, if necessary, in
      select_bad_process().
      
      The fix is to return true if a task has a detached mm but is still in
      the memcg or its hierarchy that is currently oom.  This will allow the
      oom killer to appropriately defer rather than kill unnecessarily or, in
      the worst case, panic the machine if nothing else is available to kill.

      lookup_page_cgroup() is usually used only against pages that are used in

      The exception is the CONFIG_DEBUG_VM-only memcg check from the page
      allocator: it can run on pages without page_cgroup descriptors allocated
      when the pages are fed into the page allocator for the first time during
      boot or memory hotplug.
      
      Include the array check only when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is set and save the

      memcg: make mem_cgroup_split_huge_fixup() more efficient · e94c8a9c
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki authored
      In split_huge_page(), mem_cgroup_split_huge_fixup() is called to handle
      page_cgroup modifcations.  It takes move_lock_page_cgroup() and modifies
      page_cgroup and LRU accounting jobs and called HPAGE_PMD_SIZE - 1 times.
      
      But thinking again,
        - compound_lock() is held at move_accout...then, it's not necessary
          to take move_lock_page_cgroup().
        - LRU is locked and all tail pages will go into the same LRU as
          head is now on.
        - page_cgroup is contiguous in huge page range.
      
      This patch fixes mem_cgroup_split_huge_fixup() as to be called once per
      hugepage and reduce costs for spliting.

      Since the LRU pages of a zone are distributed over all existing memory

      are scanned for their proportional share of a zone's memory.
      
      The forced scanning of small scan targets from kswapd is limited to
      zones marked unreclaimable, otherwise kswapd can quickly overreclaim by
      force-scanning the LRU lists of multiple memory cgroups.

      mm: memcg: remove optimization of keeping the root_mem_cgroup LRU lists empty · ad2b8e60
      Johannes Weiner authored
      root_mem_cgroup, lacking a configurable limit, was never subject to
      limit reclaim, so the pages charged to it could be kept off its LRU
      lists.  They would be found on the global per-zone LRU lists upon
      physical memory pressure and it made sense to avoid uselessly linking
      them to both lists.
      
      The global per-zone LRU lists are about to go away on memcg-enabled
      kernels, with all pages being exclusively linked to their respective
      per-memcg LRU lists.  As a result, pages of the root_mem_cgroup must
      also be linked to its LRU lists again.  This is purely about the LRU
      list, root_mem_cgroup is still not charged.
      
      The overhead is temporary until the double-LRU scheme is going away
      completely.

      shrink_zone().
      
      The mem_cgroup_hierarchical_reclaim() polymath is split into a soft
      limit reclaim function, which still does hierarchy walking on its own,
      and a limit (shrinking) reclaim function, which relies on generic
      reclaim code to walk the hierarchy.

      mm: memcg: per-priority per-zone hierarchy scan generations · 527a5ec9
      Johannes Weiner authored
      Memory cgroup limit reclaim currently picks one memory cgroup out of the
      target hierarchy, remembers it as the last scanned child, and reclaims
      all zones in it with decreasing priority levels.
      
      The new hierarchy reclaim code will pick memory cgroups from the same
      hierarchy concurrently from different zones and priority levels, it
      becomes necessary that hierarchy roots not only remember the last
      scanned child, but do so for each zone and priority level.
      
      Until now, we reclaimed memcgs like this:
      
          mem = mem_cgroup_iter(root)
          for each priority level:
            for each zone in zonelist:
              reclaim(mem, zone)
      
      But subsequent patches will move the memcg iteration inside the loop
      over the zones:
      
          for each priority level:
            for each zone in zonelist:
              mem = mem_cgroup_iter(root)
              reclaim(mem, zone)
      
      And to keep with the original scan order - memcg -> priority -> zone -
      the last scanned memcg has to be remembered per zone and per priority
      level.
      
      Furthermore, global reclaim will be switched to the hierarchy walk as
      well.  Different from limit reclaim, which can just recheck the limit
      after some reclaim progress, its target is to scan all memcgs for the
      desired zone pages, proportional to the memcg size, and so reliably
      detecting a full hierarchy round-trip will become crucial.
      
      Currently, the code relies on one reclaimer encountering the same memcg
      twice, but that is error-prone with concurrent reclaimers.  Instead, use
      a generation counter that is increased every time the child with the
      highest ID has been visited, so that reclaimers can stop when the
      generation changes.

      mm: vmscan: distinguish between memcg triggering reclaim and memcg being scanned · f16015fb
      Johannes Weiner authored
      Memory cgroup hierarchies are currently handled completely outside of
      the traditional reclaim code, which is invoked with a single memory
      cgroup as an argument for the whole call stack.
      
      Subsequent patches will switch this code to do hierarchical reclaim, so
      there needs to be a distinction between a) the memory cgroup that is
      triggering reclaim due to hitting its limit and b) the memory cgroup
      that is being scanned as a child of a).
      
      This patch introduces a struct mem_cgroup_zone that contains the
      combination of the memory cgroup and the zone being scanned, which is
      then passed down the stack instead of the zone argument.
