RISC-V does not (yet) support NUMA and for UMA architectures node 0 is used implicitly during early memory initialization. There is no need to call memblock_set_node(), remove this call and the surrounding code. Signed-off-by:

dummy_numa_init() loops over memblock.memory and passes nid=0 to numa_add_memblk() which essentially wraps memblock_set_node(). However, memblock_set_node() can cope with entire memory span itself, so the loop over memblock.memory regions is redundant. Using a single call to memblock_set_node() rather than a loop also fixes an issue with a buggy ACPI firmware in which the SRAT table covers some but not all of the memory in the EFI memory map. Jonathan Cameron says: This issue can be easily triggered by having an SRAT table which fails to cover all elements of the EFI memory map. This firmware error is detected and a warning printed. e.g. "NUMA: Warning: invalid memblk node 64 [mem 0x240000000-0x27fffffff]" At that point we fall back to dummy_numa_init(). However, the failed ACPI init has left us with our memblocks all broken up as we split them when trying to assign them to NUMA nodes. We then iterate over the memblocks and add them to node 0. numa_add_memblk() calls memblock_set_node() which merges regions that were previously split up during the earlier attempt to add them to different nodes during parsing of SRAT. This means elements are moved in the memblock array and we can end up in a different memblock after the call to numa_add_memblk(). Result is: Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 0000000000003a40 Mem abort info: ESR = 0x96000004 EC = 0x25: DABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits SET = 0, FnV = 0 EA = 0, S1PTW = 0 Data abort info: ISV = 0, ISS = 0x00000004 CM = 0, WnR = 0 [0000000000003a40] user address but active_mm is swapper Internal error: Oops: 96000004 [#1] PREEMPT SMP ...

The memory size calculation in cma_early_percent_memory() traverses memblock.memory rather than simply call memblock_phys_mem_size(). The comment in that function suggests that at some point there should have been call to memblock_analyze() before memblock_phys_mem_size() could be used. As of now, there is no memblock_analyze() at all and memblock_phys_mem_size() can be used as soon as cold-plug memory is registered with memblock.

This patch reduces the running time for compaction_test from about 27 sec, to 3.3 sec, which is about an 8x speedup. These numbers are for an Intel x86_64 system with 32 GB of DRAM. The compaction_test.c program was spending most of its time doing mmap(), 1 MB at a time, on about 25 GB of memory. Instead, do the mmaps 100 MB at a time. (Going past 100 MB doesn't make things go much faster, because other parts of the program are using the remaining time.) Signed-off-by:

We have observed that drop_caches can take a considerable amount of time (<put data here>). Especially when there are many memcgs involved because they are adding an additional overhead. It is quite unfortunate that the operation cannot be interrupted by a signal currently. Add a check for fatal signals into the main loop so that userspace can control early bailout. There are two reasons: 1. We have too many memcgs, even though one object freed in one memcg, the sum of object is bigger than 10. 2. We spend a lot of time in traverse memcg once. So, the memcg who traversed at the first have been freed many objects. Traverse memcg next time, the freed count bigger than 10 again. We can get the following info through 'ps': root:~# ps -aux | grep drop root 357956 ... R Aug25 21119854:55 echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches root 1771385 ...

If a swap entry tests positive for either is_[migration|hwpoison]_entry(), then its swap_type() is among SWP_MIGRATION_READ, SWP_MIGRATION_WRITE and SWP_HWPOISON.

There is a general understanding that GFP_ATOMIC/GFP_NOWAIT are to be used from atomic contexts. E.g. from within a spin lock or from the IRQ context. This is correct but there are some atomic contexts where the above doesn't hold. One of them would be an NMI context. Page allocator has never supported that and the general fear of this context didn't let anybody to actually even try to use the allocator there. Good, but let's be more specific about that. Another such a context, and that is where people seem to be more daring, is raw_spin_lock. Mostly because it simply resembles regular spin lock which is supported by the allocator and there is not any implementation difference with !RT kernels in the first place. Be explicit that such a context is not supported by the allocator. The underlying reason is that zone->lock would have to become raw_spin_lock as well and that has turned out to be a problem for RT (http://lkml.kernel.org/r/87mu305c1w.fsf@nanos.tec.linutronix.de).

Ralph Campbell authored
The function is_huge_zero_page() doesn't call compound_head() to make sure the page pointer is a head page. The call to is_huge_zero_page() in release_pages() is made before compound_head() is called so the test would fail if release_pages() was called with a tail page of the huge_zero_page and put_page_testzero() would be called releasing the page. This is unlikely to be happening in normal use or we would be seeing all sorts of process data corruption when accessing a THP zero page. Looking at other places where is_huge_zero_page() is called, all seem to only pass a head page so I think the right solution is to move the call to compound_head() in release_pages() to a point before calling is_huge_zero_page().

In has_unmovable_pages(), the page parameter would not always be the first page within a pageblock (see how the page pointer is passed in from start_isolate_page_range() after call __first_valid_page()), so that would cause checking unmovable pages span two pageblocks. After this patch, the checking is enforced within one pageblock no matter the page is first one or not, and obey the semantics of this function. This issue is found by code inspection. Michal said "this might lead to false negatives when an unrelated block would cause an isolation failure". Signed-off-by:

Let's document what ZONE_MOVABLE means, how it's used, and which special cases we have regarding unmovable pages (memory offlining vs. migration / allocations). Signed-off-by:
-
David Hildenbrand authored
When introducing virtio-mem, the semantics of ZONE_MOVABLE were rather unclear, which is why we special-cased ZONE_MOVABLE such that partially plugged blocks would never end up in ZONE_MOVABLE. Now that the semantics are much clearer (and will be documented in a follow-up patch including the new virtio-mem behavior), let's allow to online partially plugged memory blocks to ZONE_MOVABLE and also consider memory blocks that were onlined to ZONE_MOVABLE when unplugging memory. While unplugged memory pages are, in general, unmovable, they can be skipped when offlining memory. virtio-mem only unplugs fairly big chunks (in the megabyte range) and rather tries to shrink the memory region than randomly choosing memory. In theory, if all other pages in the movable zone would be movable, virtio-mem would only shrink that zone and not create any kind of fragmentation. In the future, we might want to remember the zone again and use the information when (un)plugging memory. For now, let's keep it simple. Note: Support for defragmentation is planned, to deal with fragmentation after unplug due to memory chunks within memory blocks that could not get unplugged before (e.g., somebody pinning pages within ZONE_MOVABLE for a longer time).
