2023-12-06mm/slub: optimize alloc fastpath code layoutVlastimil Babka
With allocation fastpaths no longer divided between two .c files, we have better inlining, however checking the disassembly of kmem_cache_alloc() reveals we can do better to make the fastpaths smaller and move the less common situations out of line or to separate functions, to reduce instruction cache pressure. - split memcg pre/post alloc hooks to inlined checks that use likely() to assume there will be no objcg handling necessary, and non-inline functions doing the actual handling - add some more likely/unlikely() to pre/post alloc hooks to indicate which scenarios should be out of line - change gfp_allowed_mask handling in slab_post_alloc_hook() so the code can be optimized away when kasan/kmsan/kmemleak is configured out bloat-o-meter shows: add/remove: 4/2 grow/shrink: 1/8 up/down: 521/-2924 (-2403) Function old new delta __memcg_slab_post_alloc_hook - 461 +461 kmem_cache_alloc_bulk 775 791 +16 __pfx_should_failslab.constprop - 16 +16 __pfx___memcg_slab_post_alloc_hook - 16 +16 should_failslab.constprop - 12 +12 __pfx_memcg_slab_post_alloc_hook 16 - -16 kmem_cache_alloc_lru 1295 1023 -272 kmem_cache_alloc_node 1118 817 -301 kmem_cache_alloc 1076 772 -304 kmalloc_node_trace 1149 838 -311 kmalloc_trace 1102 789 -313 __kmalloc_node_track_caller 1393 1080 -313 __kmalloc_node 1397 1082 -315 __kmalloc 1374 1059 -315 memcg_slab_post_alloc_hook 464 - -464 Note that gcc still decided to inline __memcg_pre_alloc_hook(), but the code is out of line.

2023-12-06mm/slub: remove slab_alloc() and __kmem_cache_alloc_lru() wrappersVlastimil Babka
slab_alloc() is a thin wrapper around slab_alloc_node() with only one caller. Replace with direct call of slab_alloc_node(). __kmem_cache_alloc_lru() itself is a thin wrapper with two callers, so replace it with direct calls of slab_alloc_node() and trace_kmem_cache_alloc(). This also makes sure _RET_IP_ has always the expected value and not depending on inlining decisions.

2023-12-05slub: Update frozen slabs documentations in the sourceChengming Zhou
The current updated scheme (which this series implemented) is: - node partial slabs: PG_Workingset && !frozen - cpu partial slabs: !PG_Workingset && !frozen - cpu slabs: !PG_Workingset && frozen - full slabs: !PG_Workingset && !frozen The most important change is that "frozen" bit is not set for the cpu partial slabs anymore, __slab_free() will grab node list_lock then check by !PG_Workingset that it's not on a node partial list. And the "frozen" bit is still kept for the cpu slabs for performance, since we don't need to grab node list_lock to check whether the PG_Workingset is set or not if the "frozen" bit is set in __slab_free().

2023-12-04slub: Delay freezing of partial slabsChengming Zhou
Now we will freeze slabs when moving them out of node partial list to cpu partial list, this method needs two cmpxchg_double operations: 1. freeze slab (acquire_slab()) under the node list_lock 2. get_freelist() when pick used in ___slab_alloc() Actually we don't need to freeze when moving slabs out of node partial list, we can delay freezing to when use slab freelist in ___slab_alloc(), so we can save one cmpxchg_double(). And there are other good points: - The moving of slabs between node partial list and cpu partial list becomes simpler, since we don't need to freeze or unfreeze at all. - The node list_lock contention would be less, since we don't need to freeze any slab under the node list_lock. We can achieve this because there is no concurrent path would manipulate the partial slab list except the __slab_free() path, which is now serialized by slab_test_node_partial() under the list_lock. Since the slab returned by get_partial() interfaces is not frozen anymore and no freelist is returned in the partial_context, so we need to use the introduced freeze_slab() to freeze it and get its freelist. Similarly, the slabs on the CPU partial list are not frozen anymore, we need to freeze_slab() on it before use. We can now delete acquire_slab() as it became unused.

2023-11-22slub: Keep track of whether slub is on the per-node partial listChengming Zhou
Now we rely on the "frozen" bit to see if we should manipulate the slab->slab_list, which will be changed in the following patch. Instead we introduce another way to keep track of whether slub is on the per-node partial list, here we reuse the PG_workingset bit. We have to use the atomic set_bit() and clear_bit() variants and change slab_unlock() to bit_spin_unlock() because when cmpxchg is not available and PG_lock is used, there may be concurrent operations on the two bits.

2023-10-02mm/slub: attempt to find layouts up to 1/2 waste in calculate_order()Vlastimil Babka
The main loop in calculate_order() currently tries to find an order with at most 1/4 waste. If that's impossible (for particular large object sizes), there's a fallback that will try to place one object within slab_max_order. If we expand the loop boundary to also allow up to 1/2 waste as the last resort, we can remove the fallback and simplify the code, as the loop will find an order for such sizes as well. Note we don't need to allow more than 1/2 waste as that will never happen - calc_slab_order() would calculate more objects to fit, reducing waste below 1/2. Successfully finding an order in the loop (compared to the fallback) will also have the benefit in trying to satisfy min_objects, because the fallback was passing 1. Thus the resulting slab orders might be larger (not because it would improve waste, but to reduce pressure on shared locks), which is one of the goals of calculate_order(). For example, with nr_cpus=1 and 4kB PAGE_SIZE, slub_max_order=3, before the patch we would get the following orders for these object sizes: 2056 to 10920 - order-3 as selected by the loop 10928 to 12280 - order-2 due to fallback, as <1/4 waste is not possible 12288 to 32768 - order-3 as <1/4 waste is again possible After the patch: 2056 to 32768 - order-3, because even in the range of 10928 to 12280 we try to satisfy the calculated min_objects. As a result the code is simpler and gives more consistent results.

2023-10-02mm/slub: remove min_objects loop from calculate_order()Vlastimil Babka
calculate_order() currently has two nested loops. The inner one that gradually modifies the acceptable waste from 1/16 up to 1/4, and the outer one that decreases min_objects down to 2. Upon closer inspection, the outer loop is unnecessary. Decreasing min_objects could have in theory two effects to make the inner loop and its call to calc_slab_order() succeed where a previous iteration with higher min_objects would not: - it could cause the min_objects-derived min_order to fit within slub_max_order. But min_objects is already pre-capped to max_objects that's derived from slub_max_order above the loops, so every iteration tries at least slub_max_order in calc_slab_order() - it could cause calc_slab_order() to be called with lower min_objects thus potentially lower min_order in its loop. This would make a difference if the lower order could cause the fractional waste test to succeed where a higher order has already failed with same fract_leftover in the previous iteration with a higher min_order. But that's not possible, because increasing the order can only result in lower (or same) fractional waste. If we increase the slab size 2 times, we will fit at least 2 times the number of objects (thus same fraction of waste), or it will allow us to fit one more object (lower fraction of waste). For more confidence I have tried adding a printk to notify when decreasing min_objects resulted in a success, and simulated calculations for a range of object sizes, nr_cpus and page_sizes. As expected, the printk never triggered. Thus remove the outer loop and adjust comments accordingly. There's almost no functional change except a weird corner case when slub_min_objects=1 on boot command line would cause the whole two nested loops to be skipped before this patch. Now it would try to find the best layout as usual, resulting in potentially higher orderthat minimizes waste. This is not wrong and will be further expanded by the next patch.

It's possible that the user configured slub_min_order is bigger than the default slub_max_order [1], which can still take effect, as calculate_oder() will use MAX_ORDER as a fallback to check against, but has some downsides: * the kernel message about SLUB will be strange in showing min/max orders: SLUB: HWalign=64, Order=9-3, MinObjects=0, CPUs=16, Nodes=1 * in calculate_order() called by each slab, the 2 loops of calc_slab_order() will all be meaningless due to slub_min_order is bigger than slub_max_order * prevent future code cleanup like in [2].

Commit d36a63a943e3 ("kasan, slub: fix more conflicts with CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED") has introduced kasan_reset_tags() to freelist_ptr() encoding/decoding when CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED is enabled to resolve issues when passing tagged or untagged pointers inconsistently would lead to incorrect calculations. Later, commit aa1ef4d7b3f6 ("kasan, mm: reset tags when accessing metadata") made sure all pointers have tags reset regardless of CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED, because there was no other way to access the freepointer metadata safely with hw tag-based KASAN. Therefore the kasan_reset_tag() usage in freelist_ptr_encode()/decode() is now redundant, as all callers use kasan_reset_tag() unconditionally when constructing ptr_addr. Remove the redundant calls and simplify the code and remove obsolete comments.

During reclaim, we keep track of pages reclaimed from other means than LRU-based reclaim through scan_control->reclaim_state->reclaimed_slab, which we stash a pointer to in current task_struct. However, we keep track of more than just reclaimed slab pages through this. We also use it for clean file pages dropped through pruned inodes, and xfs buffer pages freed. Rename reclaimed_slab to reclaimed, and add a helper function that wraps updating it through current, so that future changes to this logic are contained within include/linux/swap.h.

2023-02-08mm, slab/slub: Ensure kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() is available earlyThomas Gleixner
The memory allocators are available during early boot even in the phase where interrupts are disabled and scheduling is not yet possible. The setup is so that GFP_KERNEL allocations work in this phase without causing might_alloc() splats to be emitted because the system state is SYSTEM_BOOTING at that point which prevents the warnings to trigger. Most allocation/free functions use local_irq_save()/restore() or a lock variant of that. But kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() and kmem_cache_free_bulk() use local_[lock]_irq_disable()/enable(), which leads to a lockdep warning when interrupts are enabled during the early boot phase. This went unnoticed so far as there are no early users of these interfaces. The upcoming conversion of the interrupt descriptor store from radix_tree to maple_tree triggered this warning as maple_tree uses the bulk interface. Cure this by moving the kmem_cache_alloc/free() bulk variants of SLUB and SLAB to local[_lock]_irq_save()/restore(). There is obviously no reclaim possible and required at this point so there is no need to expand this coverage further. No functional change.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/crng/random Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld: - Replace prandom_u32_max() and various open-coded variants of it, there is now a new family of functions that uses fast rejection sampling to choose properly uniformly random numbers within an interval: get_random_u32_below(ceil) - [0, ceil) get_random_u32_above(floor) - (floor, U32_MAX] get_random_u32_inclusive(floor, ceil) - [floor, ceil] Coccinelle was used to convert all current users of prandom_u32_max(), as well as many open-coded patterns, resulting in improvements throughout the tree. I'll have a "late" 6.1-rc1 pull for you that removes the now unused prandom_u32_max() function, just in case any other trees add a new use case of it that needs to converted. According to linux-next, there may be two trivial cases of prandom_u32_max() reintroductions that are fixable with a 's/.../.../'. So I'll have for you a final conversion patch doing that alongside the removal patch during the second week. This is a treewide change that touches many files throughout. - More consistent use of get_random_canary(). - Updates to comments, documentation, tests, headers, and simplification in configuration. - The arch_get_random*_early() abstraction was only used by arm64 and wasn't entirely useful, so this has been replaced by code that works in all relevant contexts. - The kernel will use and manage random seeds in non-volatile EFI variables, refreshing a variable with a fresh seed when the RNG is initialized. The RNG GUID namespace is then hidden from efivarfs to prevent accidental leakage. These changes are split into random.c infrastructure code used in the EFI subsystem, in this pull request, and related support inside of EFISTUB, in Ard's EFI tree. These are co-dependent for full functionality, but the order of merging doesn't matter. - Part of the infrastructure added for the EFI support is also used for an improvement to the way vsprintf initializes its siphash key, replacing an sleep loop wart. - The hardware RNG framework now always calls its correct random.c input function, add_hwgenerator_randomness(), rather than sometimes going through helpers better suited for other cases. - The add_latent_entropy() function has long been called from the fork handler, but is a no-op when the latent entropy gcc plugin isn't used, which is fine for the purposes of latent entropy. But it was missing out on the cycle counter that was also being mixed in beside the latent entropy variable. So now, if the latent entropy gcc plugin isn't enabled, add_latent_entropy() will expand to a call to add_device_randomness(NULL, 0), which adds a cycle counter, without the absent latent entropy variable. - The RNG is now reseeded from a delayed worker, rather than on demand when used. Always running from a worker allows it to make use of the CPU RNG on platforms like S390x, whose instructions are too slow to do so from interrupts. It also has the effect of adding in new inputs more frequently with more regularity, amounting to a long term transcript of random values. Plus, it helps a bit with the upcoming vDSO implementation (which isn't yet ready for 6.2). - The jitter entropy algorithm now tries to execute on many different CPUs, round-robining, in hopes of hitting even more memory latencies and other unpredictable effects. It also will mix in a cycle counter when the entropy timer fires, in addition to being mixed in from the main loop, to account more explicitly for fluctuations in that timer firing. And the state it touches is now kept within the same cache line, so that it's assured that the different execution contexts will cause latencies. * tag 'random-6.2-rc1-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/crng/random: (23 commits) random: include <linux/once.h> in the right header random: align entropy_timer_state to cache line random: mix in cycle counter when jitter timer fires random: spread out jitter callback to different CPUs random: remove extraneous period and add a missing one in comments efi: random: refresh non-volatile random seed when RNG is initialized vsprintf: initialize siphash key using notifier random: add back async readiness notifier random: reseed in delayed work rather than on-demand random: always mix cycle counter in add_latent_entropy() hw_random: use add_hwgenerator_randomness() for early entropy random: modernize documentation comment on get_random_bytes() random: adjust comment to account for removed function random: remove early archrandom abstraction random: use random.trust_{bootloader,cpu} command line option only stackprotector: actually use get_random_canary() stackprotector: move get_random_canary() into stackprotector.h treewide: use get_random_u32_inclusive() when possible treewide: use get_random_u32_{above,below}() instead of manual loop treewide: use get_random_u32_below() instead of deprecated function ...
2022-12-12mm: slub: test: Use the kunit_get_current_test() functionDavid Gow
Use the newly-added function kunit_get_current_test() instead of accessing current->kunit_test directly. This function uses a static key to return more quickly when KUnit is enabled, but no tests are actively running. There should therefore be a negligible performance impact to enabling the slub KUnit tests. Other than the performance improvement, this should be a no-op.

2022-12-01Merge branch 'slub-tiny-v1r6' into slab/for-nextVlastimil Babka
Merge my series [1] to deprecate the SLOB allocator. - Renames CONFIG_SLOB to CONFIG_SLOB_DEPRECATED with deprecation notice. - The recommended replacement is CONFIG_SLUB, optionally with the new CONFIG_SLUB_TINY tweaks for systems with 16MB or less RAM. - Use cases that stopped working with CONFIG_SLUB_TINY instead of SLOB should be reported to linux-mm@kvack.org and slab maintainers, otherwise SLOB will be removed in few cycles.
