2024-09-03mm:page_alloc: fix the NULL ac->nodemask in __alloc_pages_slowpath()Zhongkun He
should_reclaim_retry() is not ALLOC_CPUSET aware and that means that it considers reclaimability of NUMA nodes which are outside of the cpuset. If other nodes have a lot of reclaimable memory then should_reclaim_retry would instruct page allocator to retry even though there is no memory reclaimable on the cpuset nodemask. This is not really a huge problem because the number of retries without any reclaim progress is bound but it could be certainly improved. This is a cold path so this shouldn't really have a measurable impact on performance on most workloads. 1.Test step and the machines. ------------ root@vm:/sys/fs/cgroup/test# numactl -H | grep size node 0 size: 9477 MB node 1 size: 10079 MB node 2 size: 10079 MB node 3 size: 10078 MB root@vm:/sys/fs/cgroup/test# cat cpuset.mems 2 root@vm:/sys/fs/cgroup/test# stress --vm 1 --vm-bytes 12g --vm-keep stress: info: [33430] dispatching hogs: 0 cpu, 0 io, 1 vm, 0 hdd stress: FAIL: [33430] (425) <-- worker 33431 got signal 9 stress: WARN: [33430] (427) now reaping child worker processes stress: FAIL: [33430] (461) failed run completed in 2s 2. reclaim_retry_zone info: We can only alloc pages from node=2, but the reclaim_retry_zone is node=0 and return true. root@vm:/sys/kernel/debug/tracing# cat trace stress-33431 [001] ..... 13223.617311: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=Normal order=0 reclaimable=4260 available=1772019 min_wmark=5962 no_progress_loops=1 wmark_check=1 stress-33431 [001] ..... 13223.617682: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=Normal order=0 reclaimable=4260 available=1772019 min_wmark=5962 no_progress_loops=2 wmark_check=1 stress-33431 [001] ..... 13223.618103: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=Normal order=0 reclaimable=4260 available=1772019 min_wmark=5962 no_progress_loops=3 wmark_check=1 stress-33431 [001] ..... 13223.618454: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=Normal order=0 reclaimable=4260 available=1772019 min_wmark=5962 no_progress_loops=4 wmark_check=1 stress-33431 [001] ..... 13223.618770: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=Normal order=0 reclaimable=4260 available=1772019 min_wmark=5962 no_progress_loops=5 wmark_check=1 stress-33431 [001] ..... 13223.619150: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=Normal order=0 reclaimable=4260 available=1772019 min_wmark=5962 no_progress_loops=6 wmark_check=1 stress-33431 [001] ..... 13223.619510: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=Normal order=0 reclaimable=4260 available=1772019 min_wmark=5962 no_progress_loops=7 wmark_check=1 stress-33431 [001] ..... 13223.619850: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=Normal order=0 reclaimable=4260 available=1772019 min_wmark=5962 no_progress_loops=8 wmark_check=1 stress-33431 [001] ..... 13223.620171: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=Normal order=0 reclaimable=4260 available=1772019 min_wmark=5962 no_progress_loops=9 wmark_check=1 stress-33431 [001] ..... 13223.620533: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=Normal order=0 reclaimable=4260 available=1772019 min_wmark=5962 no_progress_loops=10 wmark_check=1 stress-33431 [001] ..... 13223.620894: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=Normal order=0 reclaimable=4260 available=1772019 min_wmark=5962 no_progress_loops=11 wmark_check=1 stress-33431 [001] ..... 13223.621224: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=Normal order=0 reclaimable=4260 available=1772019 min_wmark=5962 no_progress_loops=12 wmark_check=1 stress-33431 [001] ..... 13223.621551: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=Normal order=0 reclaimable=4260 available=1772019 min_wmark=5962 no_progress_loops=13 wmark_check=1 stress-33431 [001] ..... 13223.621847: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=Normal order=0 reclaimable=4260 available=1772019 min_wmark=5962 no_progress_loops=14 wmark_check=1 stress-33431 [001] ..... 13223.622200: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=Normal order=0 reclaimable=4260 available=1772019 min_wmark=5962 no_progress_loops=15 wmark_check=1 stress-33431 [001] ..... 13223.622580: reclaim_retry_zone: node=0 zone=Normal order=0 reclaimable=4260 available=1772019 min_wmark=5962 no_progress_loops=16 wmark_check=1 With this patch, we can check the right node and get less retry in __alloc_pages_slowpath() because there is nothing to do.

When the flag is set, upon success the function returns a large folio prepared by prep_new_page(), rather than a range of order-0 pages prepared by split_free_pages() (which is renamed from split_map_pages()). alloc_contig_range() can be used to allocate folios larger than MAX_PAGE_ORDER, e.g., gigantic hugeTLB folios. So on the free path, free_one_page() needs to handle that by split_large_buddy().

2024-09-01mm: accept memory in __alloc_pages_bulk()Kirill A. Shutemov
Currently, the kernel only accepts memory in get_page_from_freelist(), but there is another path that directly takes pages from free lists - __alloc_page_bulk(). This function can consume all accepted memory and will resort to __alloc_pages_noprof() if necessary. Conditionally accepted in __alloc_pages_bulk(). The same issue may arise due to deferred page initialization. Kick the deferred initialization machinery before abandoning the zone, as the kernel does in get_page_from_freelist().

Patch series "mm: Fix several issues with unaccepted memory", v2. The patchset addresses several issues related to unaccepted memory. Pacth 1/7 preparatory cleanup. Patch 2/7 ensures that __alloc_pages_bulk() will not exhaust all accepted memory without accepting more. Patches 3/7-5/7 are preparations for patch 6/7, which fixes alloc_config_page() on machines with unaccepted memory. This allows, for example, the allocation of gigantic pages at runtime. Patch 7/7 enables the kernel to accept memory up to the promo watermark. This patch (of 7): Add dummy _deferred_grow_zone() for !DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT and remove #ifdefs in two places.

When PG_hwpoison pages are freed they are treated differently in free_pages_prepare() and instead of being released they are isolated.

2024-08-15mm: fix endless reclaim on machines with unaccepted memoryKirill A. Shutemov
Unaccepted memory is considered unusable free memory, which is not counted as free on the zone watermark check. This causes get_page_from_freelist() to accept more memory to hit the high watermark, but it creates problems in the reclaim path. The reclaim path encounters a failed zone watermark check and attempts to reclaim memory. This is usually successful, but if there is little or no reclaimable memory, it can result in endless reclaim with little to no progress. This can occur early in the boot process, just after start of the init process when the only reclaimable memory is the page cache of the init executable and its libraries. Make unaccepted memory free from watermark check point of view. This way unaccepted memory will never be the trigger of memory reclaim. Accept more memory in the get_page_from_freelist() if needed.

In addition, there are challenges with keeping the node id of the memory that is being remove to the time when memmap accounting is actually performed: since this is done after remove_pfn_range_from_zone(), and also after remove_memory_block_devices(). Meaning that we cannot use pgdat nor walking though memblocks to get the nid. Given all of that, account the memmap overhead system wide instead. For this we are going to be using global atomic counters, but given that memmap size is rarely modified, and normally is only modified either during early boot when there is only one CPU, or under a hotplug global mutex lock, therefore there is no need for per-cpu optimizations. Also, while we are here rename nr_memmap to nr_memmap_pages, and nr_memmap_boot to nr_memmap_boot_pages to be self explanatory that the units are in page count.

2024-08-07sched/rt: Clean up usage of rt_task()Qais Yousef
rt_task() checks if a task has RT priority. But depends on your dictionary, this could mean it belongs to RT class, or is a 'realtime' task, which includes RT and DL classes. Since this has caused some confusion already on discussion [1], it seemed a clean up is due. I define the usage of rt_task() to be tasks that belong to RT class. Make sure that it returns true only for RT class and audit the users and replace the ones required the old behavior with the new realtime_task() which returns true for RT and DL classes. Introduce similar realtime_prio() to create similar distinction to rt_prio() and update the users that required the old behavior to use the new function. Move MAX_DL_PRIO to prio.h so it can be used in the new definitions. Document the functions to make it more obvious what is the difference between them. PI-boosted tasks is a factor that must be taken into account when choosing which function to use. Rename task_is_realtime() to realtime_task_policy() as the old name is confusing against the new realtime_task(). No functional changes were intended.

2024-07-26mm/page_alloc: fix pcp->count race between drain_pages_zone() vs ↵Li Zhijian
__rmqueue_pcplist() It's expected that no page should be left in pcp_list after calling zone_pcp_disable() in offline_pages(). Previously, it's observed that offline_pages() gets stuck [1] due to some pages remaining in pcp_list. Cause: There is a race condition between drain_pages_zone() and __rmqueue_pcplist() involving the pcp->count variable. See below scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---------------- --------------- spin_lock(&pcp->lock); __rmqueue_pcplist() { zone_pcp_disable() { /* list is empty */ if (list_empty(list)) { /* add pages to pcp_list */ alloced = rmqueue_bulk() mutex_lock(&pcp_batch_high_lock) ... __drain_all_pages() { drain_pages_zone() { /* read pcp->count, it's 0 here */ count = READ_ONCE(pcp->count) /* 0 means nothing to drain */ /* update pcp->count */ pcp->count += alloced << order; ... ... spin_unlock(&pcp->lock); In this case, after calling zone_pcp_disable() though, there are still some pages in pcp_list. And these pages in pcp_list are neither movable nor isolated, offline_pages() gets stuck as a result. Solution: Expand the scope of the pcp->lock to also protect pcp->count in drain_pages_zone(), to ensure no pages are left in the pcp list after zone_pcp_disable() [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/6a07125f-e720-404c-b2f9-e55f3f166e85@fujitsu.com/ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240723064428.1179519-1-lizhijian@fujitsu.com Fixes: 4b23a68f9536 ("mm/page_alloc: protect PCP lists with a spinlock") Signed-off-by: Li Zhijian <lizhijian@fujitsu.com> Reported-by: Yao Xingtao <yaoxt.fnst@fujitsu.com> Reviewed-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Cc: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>

2024-07-17mm, page_alloc: put should_fail_alloc_page() back behing CONFIG_FAIL_PAGE_ALLOCVlastimil Babka
This mostly reverts commit af3b854492f3 ("mm/page_alloc.c: allow error injection"). The commit made should_fail_alloc_page() a noinline function that's always called from the page allocation hotpath, even if it's empty because CONFIG_FAIL_PAGE_ALLOC is not enabled, and there is no option to disable it and prevent the associated function call overhead. As with the preceding patch "mm, slab: put should_failslab back behind CONFIG_SHOULD_FAILSLAB" and for the same reasons, put the should_fail_alloc_page() back behind the config option. When enabled, the ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION and BTF_ID records are preserved so it's not a complete revert.

2024-07-10mm/page_alloc: remove prefetchw() on freeing page to buddy systemWei Yang
The prefetchw() is introduced from an ancient patch[1]. The change log says: The basic idea is to free higher order pages instead of going through every single one. Also, some unnecessary atomic operations are done away with and replaced with non-atomic equivalents, and prefetching is done where it helps the most. For a more in-depth discusion of this patch, please see the linux-ia64 archives (topic is "free bootmem feedback patch"). So there are several changes improve the bootmem freeing, in which the most basic idea is freeing higher order pages. And as Matthew says, "Itanium CPUs of this era had no prefetchers." I did 10 round bootup tests before and after this change, the data doesn't prove prefetchw() help speeding up bootmem freeing. The sum of the 10 round bootmem freeing time after prefetchw() removal even 5.2% faster than before.

2024-07-03mm/memory_hotplug: initialize memmap of !ZONE_DEVICE with PageOffline() ↵David Hildenbrand
instead of PageReserved() We currently initialize the memmap such that PG_reserved is set and the refcount of the page is 1. In virtio-mem code, we have to manually clear that PG_reserved flag to make memory offlining with partially hotplugged memory blocks possible: has_unmovable_pages() would otherwise bail out on such pages. We want to avoid PG_reserved where possible and move to typed pages instead. Further, we want to further enlighten memory offlining code about PG_offline: offline pages in an online memory section. One example is handling managed page count adjustments in a cleaner way during memory offlining. So let's initialize the pages with PG_offline instead of PG_reserved. generic_online_page()->__free_pages_core() will now clear that flag before handing that memory to the buddy. Note that the page refcount is still 1 and would forbid offlining of such memory except when special care is take during GOING_OFFLINE as currently only implemented by virtio-mem. With this change, we can now get non-PageReserved() pages in the XEN balloon list. From what I can tell, that can already happen via decrease_reservation(), so that should be fine. HV-balloon should not really observe a change: partial online memory blocks still cannot get surprise-offlined, because the refcount of these PageOffline() pages is 1. Update virtio-mem, HV-balloon and XEN-balloon code to be aware that hotplugged pages are now PageOffline() instead of PageReserved() before they are handed over to the buddy. We'll leave the ZONE_DEVICE case alone for now. Note that self-hosted vmemmap pages will no longer be marked as reserved. This matches ordinary vmemmap pages allocated from the buddy during memory hotplug. Now, really only vmemmap pages allocated from memblock during early boot will be marked reserved. Existing PageReserved() checks seem to be handling all relevant cases correctly even after this change.

2024-07-03mm: pass meminit_context to __free_pages_core()David Hildenbrand
Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: use PageOffline() instead of PageReserved() for !ZONE_DEVICE". This can be a considered a long-overdue follow-up to some parts of [1]. The patches are based on [2], but they are not strictly required -- just makes it clearer why we can use adjust_managed_page_count() for memory hotplug without going into details about highmem. We stop initializing pages with PageReserved() in memory hotplug code -- except when dealing with ZONE_DEVICE for now. Instead, we use PageOffline(): all pages are initialized to PageOffline() when onlining a memory section, and only the ones actually getting exposed to the system/page allocator will get PageOffline cleared. This way, we enlighten memory hotplug more about PageOffline() pages and can cleanup some hacks we have in virtio-mem code. What about ZONE_DEVICE? PageOffline() is wrong, but we might just stop using PageReserved() for them later by simply checking for is_zone_device_page() at suitable places. That will be a separate patch set / proposal. This primarily affects virtio-mem, HV-balloon and XEN balloon. I only briefly tested with virtio-mem, which benefits most from these cleanups.

2024-07-03mm: report per-page metadata informationSourav Panda
Today, we do not have any observability of per-page metadata and how much it takes away from the machine capacity. Thus, we want to describe the amount of memory that is going towards per-page metadata, which can vary depending on build configuration, machine architecture, and system use. This patch adds 2 fields to /proc/vmstat that can used as shown below: Accounting per-page metadata allocated by boot-allocator: /proc/vmstat:nr_memmap_boot * PAGE_SIZE Accounting per-page metadata allocated by buddy-allocator: /proc/vmstat:nr_memmap * PAGE_SIZE Accounting total Perpage metadata allocated on the machine: (/proc/vmstat:nr_memmap_boot + /proc/vmstat:nr_memmap) * PAGE_SIZE Utility for userspace: Observability: Describe the amount of memory overhead that is going to per-page metadata on the system at any given time since this overhead is not currently observable. Debugging: Tracking the changes or absolute value in struct pages can help detect anomalies as they can be correlated with other metrics in the machine (e.g., memtotal, number of huge pages, etc). page_ext overheads: Some kernel features such as page_owner page_table_check that use page_ext can be optionally enabled via kernel parameters. Having the total per-page metadata information helps users precisely measure impact. Furthermore, page-metadata metrics will reflect the amount of struct pages reliquished (or overhead reduced) when hugetlbfs pages are reserved which will vary depending on whether hugetlb vmemmap optimization is enabled or not.

2024-07-03mm/highmem: reimplement totalhigh_pages() by walking zonesDavid Hildenbrand
Patch series "mm/highmem: don't track highmem pages manually". Let's remove highmem special-casing from adjust_managed_page_count(), to result in less confusion why memblock manually adjusts totalram_pages, and __free_pages_core() only adjusts the zone's managed pages -- what about the highmem pages that adjust_managed_page_count() updates? Now, we only maintain totalram_pages and a zone's managed pages independent of highmem support. We can derive the number of highmem pages simply by looking at the relevant zone's managed pages. I don't think there is any particular fast path that needs a maximum-efficient totalhigh_pages() implementation. Note that highmem memory is currently initialized using free_highmem_page()->free_reserved_page(), not __free_pages_core(). In the future we might want to also use __free_pages_core() to initialize highmem memory, to make that less special, and consider moving totalram_pages updates into __free_pages_core() [1], so we can just use adjust_managed_page_count() in there as well. Booting a simple kernel in QEMU reveals no highmem accounting change: Before: Memory: 3095448K/3145208K available (14802K kernel code, 2073K rwdata, 5000K rodata, 740K init, 556K bss, 49760K reserved, 0K cma-reserved, 2244488K highmem) After: Memory: 3095276K/3145208K available (14802K kernel code, 2073K rwdata, 5000K rodata, 740K init, 556K bss, 49932K reserved, 0K cma-reserved, 2244488K highmem) [1] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240601133402.2675-1-richard.weiyang@gmail.com This patch (of 2): Can we get rid of the highmem ifdef in adjust_managed_page_count()? Likely yes: we don't have that many totalhigh_pages() users, and they all don't seem to be very performance critical. So let's implement totalhigh_pages() like nr_free_highpages(), collecting information from all zones. This is now similar to what we do in si_meminfo_node() to collect the per-node highmem page count. In the common case (single node, 3-4 zones), we really shouldn't care. We could optimize a bit further (only walk ZONE_HIGHMEM and ZONE_MOVABLE if required), but there doesn't seem a real need for that.

2024-06-24mm/page_alloc: Separate THP PCP into movable and non-movable categoriesyangge
Since commit 5d0a661d808f ("mm/page_alloc: use only one PCP list for THP-sized allocations") no longer differentiates the migration type of pages in THP-sized PCP list, it's possible that non-movable allocation requests may get a CMA page from the list, in some cases, it's not acceptable. If a large number of CMA memory are configured in system (for example, the CMA memory accounts for 50% of the system memory), starting a virtual machine with device passthrough will get stuck. During starting the virtual machine, it will call pin_user_pages_remote(..., FOLL_LONGTERM, ...) to pin memory. Normally if a page is present and in CMA area, pin_user_pages_remote() will migrate the page from CMA area to non-CMA area because of FOLL_LONGTERM flag. But if non-movable allocation requests return CMA memory, migrate_longterm_unpinnable_pages() will migrate a CMA page to another CMA page, which will fail to pass the check in check_and_migrate_movable_pages() and cause migration endless. Call trace: pin_user_pages_remote --__gup_longterm_locked // endless loops in this function ----_get_user_pages_locked ----check_and_migrate_movable_pages ------migrate_longterm_unpinnable_pages --------alloc_migration_target This problem will also have a negative impact on CMA itself. For example, when CMA is borrowed by THP, and we need to reclaim it through cma_alloc() or dma_alloc_coherent(), we must move those pages out to ensure CMA's users can retrieve that contigous memory. Currently, CMA's memory is occupied by non-movable pages, meaning we can't relocate them. As a result, cma_alloc() is more likely to fail. To fix the problem above, we add one PCP list for THP, which will not introduce a new cacheline for struct per_cpu_pages. THP will have 2 PCP lists, one PCP list is used by MOVABLE allocation, and the other PCP list is used by UNMOVABLE allocation. MOVABLE allocation contains GPF_MOVABLE, and UNMOVABLE allocation contains GFP_UNMOVABLE and GFP_RECLAIMABLE.

There was insufficient review and no agreement that this is the right approach. There are serious flaws with the implementation that make processes using mlock() not even work with simple fork() [1] and we get reliable crashes when rebooting. Further, simply because we might be unmapping a single PTE of a large mlocked folio, we shouldn't zero out the whole folio. ... especially because the code can also *corrupt* urelated memory because kernel_init_pages(page, folio_nr_pages(folio)); Could end up writing outside of the actual folio if we work with a tail page. Let's revert it. Once there is agreement that this is the right approach, the issues were fixed and there was reasonable review and proper testing, we can consider it again.

This inconsistency is caused by the highatomic reservation system operating on single pageblocks, while MAX_ORDER can be bigger than that - in this configuration, pageblock_order is 9 while MAX_PAGE_ORDER is 10. The test case is observed to make several adjacent order-3 requests with __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM cleared, which marks the surrounding block as highatomic. Upon freeing, the blocks merge into an order-10 buddy. When the highatomic pool is drained later on, this order-10 buddy gets moved back to the movable list, but only the first pageblock is marked movable again. A subsequent expand() of this buddy warns about the tail being of a different type. This is a long-standing bug that's surfaced by the recent block type warnings added to the allocator. The consequences seem mostly benign, it just results in odd behavior: the highatomic tail blocks are not properly drained, instead they end up on the movable list first, then go back to the highatomic list after an alloc-free cycle. To fix this, make the highatomic reservation code aware that allocations/buddies can be larger than a pageblock. While it's an old quirk, the recently added type consistency warnings seem to be the most prominent consequence of it. Set the Fixes: tag accordingly to highlight this backporting dependency.

2024-05-05mm: page_alloc: allowing mTHP compaction to capture the freed page directlyBaolin Wang
Currently, compaction_capture() does not allow lower-order allocations to directly capture the movable free pages, even though lower-order allocations might also be requesting movable pages, that can lead to more compaction scanning. And, with the enablement of mTHP, such situations will become more common. Thus allowing lower-order (mTHP) allocations of movable page types directly capture the movable free pages can avoid unnecessary compaction scanning, meanwhile that won't pollute the movable pageblock. With testing 1M mTHP compaction, it can be seen that compaction scanning is significantly reduced. mm-unstable patched Ops Compaction pages isolated 116598741.00 120946702.00 Ops Compaction migrate scanned 1764870054.00 1488621550.00 Ops Compaction free scanned 7707879039.00 4986299318.00 Ops Compact scan efficiency 22.90 29.85 Ops Compaction cost 73797.69 72933.48 Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/8118a5d66a034736a48433beddaca60ed78577c4.1712892329.git.baolin.wang@linux.alibaba.com Signed-off-by: Baolin Wang <baolin.wang@linux.alibaba.com> Reviewed-by: Zi Yan <ziy@nvidia.com> Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Cc: "Huang, Ying" <ying.huang@intel.com> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Cc: Ryan Roberts <ryan.roberts@arm.com> Cc: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>
2024-05-05mm/page_alloc: use folio_mapped() in __alloc_contig_migrate_range()David Hildenbrand
We want to limit the use of page_mapcount() to the places where it is absolutely necessary. For tracing purposes, we use page_mapcount() in __alloc_contig_migrate_range(). Adding that mapcount to total_mapped sounds strange: total_migrated and total_reclaimed would count each page only once, not multiple times. But then, isolate_migratepages_range() adds each folio only once to the list. So for large folios, we would query the mapcount of the first page of the folio, which doesn't make too much sense for large folios. Let's simply use folio_mapped() * folio_nr_pages(), which makes more sense as nr_migratepages is also incremented by the number of pages in the folio in case of successful migration.

2024-05-05mm: track mapcount of large folios in single valueDavid Hildenbrand
Let's track the mapcount of large folios in a single value. The mapcount of a large folio currently corresponds to the sum of the entire mapcount and all page mapcounts. This sum is what we actually want to know in folio_mapcount() and it is also sufficient for implementing folio_mapped(). With PTE-mapped THP becoming more important and more widely used, we want to avoid looping over all pages of a folio just to obtain the mapcount of large folios. The comment "In the common case, avoid the loop when no pages mapped by PTE" in folio_total_mapcount() does no longer hold for mTHP that are always mapped by PTE. Further, we are planning on using folio_mapcount() more frequently, and might even want to remove page mapcounts for large folios in some kernel configs. Therefore, allow for reading the mapcount of large folios efficiently and atomically without looping over any pages. Maintain the mapcount also for hugetlb pages for simplicity. Use the new mapcount to implement folio_mapcount() and folio_mapped(). Make page_mapped() simply call folio_mapped(). We can now get rid of folio_large_is_mapped(). _nr_pages_mapped is now only used in rmap code and for debugging purposes. Keep folio_nr_pages_mapped() around, but document that its use should be limited to rmap internals and debugging purposes. This change implies one additional atomic add/sub whenever mapping/unmapping (parts of) a large folio. As we now batch RMAP operations for PTE-mapped THP during fork(), during unmap/zap, and when PTE-remapping a PMD-mapped THP, and we adjust the large mapcount for a PTE batch only once, the added overhead in the common case is small. Only when unmapping individual pages of a large folio (e.g., during COW), the overhead might be bigger in comparison, but it's essentially one additional atomic operation. Note that before the new mapcount would overflow, already our refcount would overflow: each mapping requires a folio reference. Extend the focumentation of folio_mapcount().

Commit 44042b449872 ("mm/page_alloc: allow high-order pages to be stored on the per-cpu lists") extends the PCP allocator to store THP pages, and it determines whether to cache THP pages in PCP by comparing with pageblock_order. But the pageblock_order is not always equal to THP order. It might also be MAX_PAGE_ORDER, which could prevent PCP from caching THP pages. Therefore, using HPAGE_PMD_ORDER instead to determine the need for caching THP for PCP will fix this issue Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/a25c9e14cd03907d5978b60546a69e6aa3fc2a7d.1712151833.git.baolin.wang@linux.alibaba.com Fixes: 44042b449872 ("mm/page_alloc: allow high-order pages to be stored on the per-cpu lists") Signed-off-by: Baolin Wang <baolin.wang@linux.alibaba.com> Acked-by: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Reviewed-by: Barry Song <baohua@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>

2024-04-25mm: init_mlocked_on_free_v3York Jasper Niebuhr
Implements the "init_mlocked_on_free" boot option. When this boot option is enabled, any mlock'ed pages are zeroed on free. If the pages are munlock'ed beforehand, no initialization takes place. This boot option is meant to combat the performance hit of "init_on_free" as reported in commit 6471384af2a6 ("mm: security: introduce init_on_alloc=1 and init_on_free=1 boot options"). With "init_mlocked_on_free=1" only relevant data is freed while everything else is left untouched by the kernel. Correspondingly, this patch introduces no performance hit for unmapping non-mlock'ed memory. The unmapping overhead for purely mlocked memory was measured to be approximately 13%. Realistically, most systems mlock only a fraction of the total memory so the real-world system overhead should be close to zero. Optimally, userspace programs clear any key material or other confidential memory before exit and munlock the according memory regions. If a program crashes, userspace key managers fail to do this job. Accordingly, no munlock operations are performed so the data is caught and zeroed by the kernel. Should the program not crash, all memory will ideally be munlocked so no overhead is caused. CONFIG_INIT_MLOCKED_ON_FREE_DEFAULT_ON can be set to enable "init_mlocked_on_free" by default.

2024-04-25mm/page_alloc.c: change the array-length to MIGRATE_PCPTYPESBaoquan He
Earlier, in commit 1dd214b8f21c ("mm: page_alloc: avoid merging non-fallbackable pageblocks with others"), migrate type MIGRATE_CMA and MIGRATE_ISOLATE are removed from fallbacks list since they are never used. Later on, in commit ("aa02d3c174ab mm/page_alloc: reduce fallbacks to (MIGRATE_PCPTYPES - 1)"), the array column size is reduced to 'MIGRATE_PCPTYPES - 1'. In fact, the array row size need be reduced to MIGRATE_PCPTYPES too since it's only covering rows of the number MIGRATE_PCPTYPES. Even though the current code has handled cases when the migratetype is CMA, HIGHATOMIC and MEMORY_ISOLATION, making the row size right is still good to avoid future error and confusion.

empty zone On one node, for lower zone's ->lowmem_reserve[], it will show how much memory is reserved in this lower zone to avoid excessive page allocation from the relevant higher zone's fallback allocation. However, currently lower zone's lowmem_reserve[] element will be filled even though the relevant higher zone is empty. That doesnt' make sense and can cause confusion. E.g on node 0 of one system as below, it has zone DMA/DMA32/NORMAL/MOVABLE/DEVICE, among them zone MOVABLE/DEVICE are the highest and both are empty.

2024-04-25mm: record the migration reason for struct migration_target_controlBaolin Wang
Patch series "make the hugetlb migration strategy consistent", v2. As discussed in previous thread [1], there is an inconsistency when handling hugetlb migration. When handling the migration of freed hugetlb, it prevents fallback to other NUMA nodes in alloc_and_dissolve_hugetlb_folio(). However, when dealing with in-use hugetlb, it allows fallback to other NUMA nodes in alloc_hugetlb_folio_nodemask(), which can break the per-node hugetlb pool and might result in unexpected failures when node bound workloads doesn't get what is asssumed available. This patchset tries to make the hugetlb migration strategy more clear and consistent. Please find details in each patch.

2024-04-25mm: page_alloc: consolidate free page accountingJohannes Weiner
Free page accounting currently happens a bit too high up the call stack, where it has to deal with guard pages, compaction capturing, block stealing and even page isolation. This is subtle and fragile, and makes it difficult to hack on the code. Now that type violations on the freelists have been fixed, push the accounting down to where pages enter and leave the freelist.

2024-04-25mm: page_isolation: prepare for hygienic freelistsJohannes Weiner
Page isolation currently sets MIGRATE_ISOLATE on a block, then drops zone->lock and scans the block for straddling buddies to split up. Because this happens non-atomically wrt the page allocator, it's possible for allocations to get a buddy whose first block is a regular pcp migratetype but whose tail is isolated. This means that in certain cases memory can still be allocated after isolation. It will also trigger the freelist type hygiene warnings in subsequent patches. start_isolate_page_range() isolate_single_pageblock() set_migratetype_isolate(tail) lock zone->lock move_freepages_block(tail) // nop set_pageblock_migratetype(tail) unlock zone->lock __rmqueue_smallest() del_page_from_freelist(head) expand(head, head_mt) WARN(head_mt != tail_mt) start_pfn = ALIGN_DOWN(MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES) for (pfn = start_pfn, pfn < end_pfn) if (PageBuddy()) split_free_page(head) Introduce a variant of move_freepages_block() provided by the allocator specifically for page isolation; it moves free pages, converts the block, and handles the splitting of straddling buddies while holding zone->lock. The allocator knows that pageblocks and buddies are always naturally aligned, which means that buddies can only straddle blocks if they're actually >pageblock_order. This means the search-and-split part can be simplified compared to what page isolation used to do. Also tighten up the page isolation code around the expectations of which pages can be large, and how they are freed. Based on extensive discussions with and invaluable input from Zi Yan.
