      oom: multi threaded process coredump don't make deadlock · cef1d352
      KOSAKI Motohiro authored
      Oleg pointed out current PF_EXITING check is wrong. Because PF_EXITING
      is per-thread flag, not per-process flag. He said,
      
         Two threads, group-leader L and its sub-thread T. T dumps the code.
         In this case both threads have ->mm != NULL, L has PF_EXITING.
      
         The first problem is, select_bad_process() always return -1 in this
         case (even if the caller is T, this doesn't matter).
      
         The second problem is that we should add TIF_MEMDIE to T, not L.
      
      I think we can remove this dubious PF_EXITING check. but as first step,
      This patch add the protection of multi threaded issue.

      oom: give the dying task a higher priority · 93b43fa5
      Luis Claudio R. Goncalves authored
      In a system under heavy load it was observed that even after the
      oom-killer selects a task to die, the task may take a long time to die.
      
      Right after sending a SIGKILL to the task selected by the oom-killer this
      task has its priority increased so that it can exit() soon, freeing
      memory.  That is accomplished by:
      
              /*
               * We give our sacrificial lamb high priority and access to
               * all the memory it needs. That way it should be able to
               * exit() and clear out its resources quickly...
               */
       	p->rt.time_slice = HZ;
       	set_tsk_thread_flag(p, TIF_MEMDIE);
      
      It sounds plausible giving the dying task an even higher priority to be
      sure it will be scheduled sooner and free the desired memory.  It was
      suggested on LKML using SCHED_FIFO:1, the lowest RT priority so that this
      task won't interfere with any running RT task.
      
      If the dying task is already an RT task, leave it untouched.  Another good
      suggestion, implemented here, was to avoid boosting the dying task
      priority in case of mem_cgroup OOM.

      oom: /proc/<pid>/oom_score treat kernel thread honestly · 26ebc984
      KOSAKI Motohiro authored
      If a kernel thread is using use_mm(), badness() returns a positive value.
      This is not a big issue because caller take care of it correctly.  But
      there is one exception, /proc/<pid>/oom_score calls badness() directly and
      doesn't care that the task is a regular process.
      
      Another example, /proc/1/oom_score return !0 value.  But it's unkillable.
      This incorrectness makes administration a little confusing.
      
      This patch fixes it.

      vmscan: kill prev_priority completely · 25edde03
      KOSAKI Motohiro authored
      Since 2.6.28 zone->prev_priority is unused. Then it can be removed
      safely. It reduce stack usage slightly.
      
      Now I have to say that I'm sorry. 2 years ago, I thought prev_priority
      can be integrate again, it's useful. but four (or more) times trying
      haven't got good performance number. Thus I give up such approach.
      
      The rest of this changelog is notes on prev_priority and why it existed in
      the first place and why it might be not necessary any more. This information
      is based heavily on discussions between Andrew Morton, Rik van Riel and
      Kosaki Motohiro who is heavily quotes from.
      
      Historically prev_priority was important because it determined when the VM
      would start unmapping PTE pages. i.e. there are no balances of note within
      the VM, Anon vs File and Mapped vs Unmapped. Without prev_priority, there
      is a potential risk of unnecessarily increasing minor faults as a large
      amount of read activity of use-once pages could push mapped pages to the
      end of the LRU and get unmapped.
      
      There is no proof this is still a problem but currently it is not considered
      to be. Active files are not deactivated if the active file list is smaller
      than the inactive list reducing the liklihood that file-mapped pages are
      being pushed off the LRU and referenced executable pages are kept on the
      active list to avoid them getting pushed out by read activity.
      
      Even if it is a problem, prev_priority prev_priority wouldn't works
      nowadays. First of all, current vmscan still a lot of UP centric code. it
      expose some weakness on some dozens CPUs machine. I think we need more and
      more improvement.
      
      The problem is, current vmscan mix up per-system-pressure, per-zone-pressure
      and per-task-pressure a bit. example, prev_priority try to boost priority to
      other concurrent priority. but if the another task have mempolicy restriction,
      it is unnecessary, but also makes wrong big latency and exceeding reclaim.
      per-task based priority + prev_priority adjustment make the emulation of
      per-system pressure. but it have two issue 1) too rough and brutal emulation
      2) we need per-zone pressure, not per-system.
      
      Another example, currently DEF_PRIORITY is 12. it mean the lru rotate about
      2 cycle (1/4096 + 1/2048 + 1/1024 + .. + 1) before invoking OOM-Killer.
      but if 10,0000 thrreads enter DEF_PRIORITY reclaim at the same time, the
      system have higher memory pressure than priority==0 (1/4096*10,000 > 2).
      prev_priority can't solve such multithreads workload issue. In other word,
      prev_priority concept assume the sysmtem don't have lots threads."

      vmscan: tracing: add trace event when a page is written · 755f0225
      Mel Gorman authored
      Add a trace event for when page reclaim queues a page for IO and records
      whether it is synchronous or asynchronous.  Excessive synchronous IO for a
      process can result in noticeable stalls during direct reclaim.  Excessive
      IO from page reclaim may indicate that the system is seriously under
      provisioned for the amount of dirty pages that exist.

      mm: implement writeback livelock avoidance using page tagging · f446daae
      Jan Kara authored
      We try to avoid livelocks of writeback when some steadily creates dirty
      pages in a mapping we are writing out.  For memory-cleaning writeback,
      using nr_to_write works reasonably well but we cannot really use it for
      data integrity writeback.  This patch tries to solve the problem.
      
      The idea is simple: Tag all pages that should be written back with a
      special tag (TOWRITE) in the radix tree.  This can be done rather quickly
      and thus livelocks should not happen in practice.  Then we start doing the
      hard work of locking pages and sending them to disk only for those pages
      that have TOWRITE tag set.
      
      Note: Adding new radix tree tag grows radix tree node from 288 to 296
      bytes for 32-bit archs and from 552 to 560 bytes for 64-bit archs.
      However, the number of slab/slub items per page remains the same (13 and 7
      respectively).

      ksm: fix ksm swapin time optimization · ba6f0ff3
      Andrea Arcangeli authored
      The new anon-vma code, was suboptimal and it lead to erratic invocation of
      ksm_does_need_to_copy.  That leads to host hangs or guest vnc lockup, or
      weird behavior.  It's unclear why ksm_does_need_to_copy is unstable but
      the point is that when KSM is not in use, ksm_does_need_to_copy must never
      run or we bounce pages for no good reason.  I suspect the same hangs will
      happen with KVM swaps.  But this at least fixes the regression in the
      new-anon-vma code and it only let KSM bugs triggers when KSM is in use.
      
      The code in do_swap_page likely doesn't cope well with a not-swapcache,
      especially the memcg code.

      shmem: reduce pagefault lock contention · ff36b801
      Shaohua Li authored
      I'm running a shmem pagefault test case (see attached file) under a 64 CPU
      system.  Profile shows shmem_inode_info->lock is heavily contented and
      100% CPUs time are trying to get the lock.  In the pagefault (no swap)
      case, shmem_getpage gets the lock twice, the last one is avoidable if we
      prealloc a page so we could reduce one time of locking.  This is what
      below patch does.
      
      The result of the test case:
      2.6.35-rc3: ~20s
      2.6.35-rc3 + patch: ~12s
      so this is 40% improvement.
      
      One might argue if we could have better locking for shmem.  But even shmem
      is lockless, the pagefault will soon have pagecache lock heavily contented
      because shmem must add new page to pagecache.  So before we have better
      locking for pagecache, improving shmem locking doesn't have too much
      improvement.  I did a similar pagefault test against a ramfs file, the
      test result is ~10.5s.

      tmpfs: make tmpfs scalable with percpu_counter for used blocks · 7e496299
      Tim Chen authored
      The current implementation of tmpfs is not scalable.  We found that
      stat_lock is contended by multiple threads when we need to get a new page,
      leading to useless spinning inside this spin lock.
      
      This patch makes use of the percpu_counter library to maintain local count
      of used blocks to speed up getting and returning of pages.  So the
      acquisition of stat_lock is unnecessary for getting and returning blocks,
      improving the performance of tmpfs on system with large number of cpus.
      On a 4 socket 32 core NHM-EX system, we saw improvement of 270%.
      
      The implementation below has a slight chance of race between threads
      causing a slight overshoot of the maximum configured blocks.  However, any
      overshoot is small, and is bounded by the number of cpus.  This happens
      when the number of used blocks is slightly below the maximum configured
      blocks when a thread checks the used block count, and another thread
      allocates the last block before the current thread does.  This should not
      be a problem for tmpfs, as the overshoot is most likely to be a few blocks
      and bounded.  If a strict limit is really desired, then configured the max
      blocks to be the limit less the number of cpus in system.

      tmpfs: add accurate compare function to percpu_counter library · 27f5e0f6
      Tim Chen authored
      Add percpu_counter_compare that allows for a quick but accurate comparison
      of percpu_counter with a given value.
      
      A rough count is provided by the count field in percpu_counter structure,
      without accounting for the other values stored in individual cpu counters.
      
      The actual count is a sum of count and the cpu counters.  However, count
      field is never different from the actual value by a factor of
      batch*num_online_cpu.  We do not need to get actual count for comparison
      if count is different from the given value by this factor and allows for
      quick comparison without summing up all the per cpu counters.
