2015-09-08mm: rename alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node()Vlastimil Babka1-2/+2
alloc_pages_exact_node() was introduced in commit 6484eb3e2a81 ("page allocator: do not check NUMA node ID when the caller knows the node is valid") as an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node(), that doesn't fallback to current node for nid == NUMA_NO_NODE. Unfortunately the name of the function can easily suggest that the allocation is restricted to the given node and fails otherwise. In truth, the node is only preferred, unless __GFP_THISNODE is passed among the gfp flags. The misleading name has lead to mistakes in the past, see for example commits 5265047ac301 ("mm, thp: really limit transparent hugepage allocation to local node") and b360edb43f8e ("mm, mempolicy: migrate_to_node should only migrate to node"). Another issue with the name is that there's a family of alloc_pages_exact*() functions where 'exact' means exact size (instead of page order), which leads to more confusion. To prevent further mistakes, this patch effectively renames alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node() to better convey that it's an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node() not intended for general usage. Both functions get described in comments. It has been also considered to really provide a convenience function for allocations restricted to a node, but the major opinion seems to be that __GFP_THISNODE already provides that functionality and we shouldn't duplicate the API needlessly. The number of users would be small anyway. Existing callers of alloc_pages_exact_node() are simply converted to call __alloc_pages_node(), with the exception of sba_alloc_coherent() which open-codes the check for NUMA_NO_NODE, so it is converted to use alloc_pages_node() instead. This means it no longer performs some VM_BUG_ON checks, and since the current check for nid in alloc_pages_node() uses a 'nid < 0' comparison (which includes NUMA_NO_NODE), it may hide wrong values which would be previously exposed. Both differences will be rectified by the next patch. To sum up, this patch makes no functional changes, except temporarily hiding potentially buggy callers. Restricting the checks in alloc_pages_node() is left for the next patch which can in turn expose more existing buggy callers.

2015-06-24mm, thp: respect MPOL_PREFERRED policy with non-local nodeVlastimil Babka1-16/+22
Since commit 077fcf116c8c ("mm/thp: allocate transparent hugepages on local node"), we handle THP allocations on page fault in a special way - for non-interleave memory policies, the allocation is only attempted on the node local to the current CPU, if the policy's nodemask allows the node. This is motivated by the assumption that THP benefits cannot offset the cost of remote accesses, so it's better to fallback to base pages on the local node (which might still be available, while huge pages are not due to fragmentation) than to allocate huge pages on a remote node. The nodemask check prevents us from violating e.g. MPOL_BIND policies where the local node is not among the allowed nodes. However, the current implementation can still give surprising results for the MPOL_PREFERRED policy when the preferred node is different than the current CPU's local node. In such case we should honor the preferred node and not use the local node, which is what this patch does. If hugepage allocation on the preferred node fails, we fall back to base pages and don't try other nodes, with the same motivation as is done for the local node hugepage allocations. The patch also moves the MPOL_INTERLEAVE check around to simplify the hugepage specific test. The difference can be demonstrated using in-tree transhuge-stress test on the following 2-node machine where half memory on one node was occupied to show the difference. > numactl --hardware available: 2 nodes (0-1) node 0 cpus: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 node 0 size: 7878 MB node 0 free: 3623 MB node 1 cpus: 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 node 1 size: 8045 MB node 1 free: 7818 MB node distances: node 0 1 0: 10 21 1: 21 10 Before the patch: > numactl -p0 -C0 ./transhuge-stress transhuge-stress: 2.197 s/loop, 0.276 ms/page, 7249.168 MiB/s 7962 succeed, 0 failed, 1786 different pages > numactl -p0 -C12 ./transhuge-stress transhuge-stress: 2.962 s/loop, 0.372 ms/page, 5376.172 MiB/s 7962 succeed, 0 failed, 3873 different pages Number of successful THP allocations corresponds to free memory on node 0 in the first case and node 1 in the second case, i.e. -p parameter is ignored and cpu binding "wins".

2015-05-14mm, numa: really disable NUMA balancing by default on single node machinesMel Gorman1-1/+1
NUMA balancing is meant to be disabled by default on UMA machines but the check is using nr_node_ids (highest node) instead of num_online_nodes (online nodes). The consequences are that a UMA machine with a node ID of 1 or higher will enable NUMA balancing. This will incur useless overhead due to minor faults with the impact depending on the workload. These are the impact on the stats when running a kernel build on a single node machine whose node ID happened to be 1: vanilla patched NUMA base PTE updates 5113158 0 NUMA huge PMD updates 643 0 NUMA page range updates 5442374 0 NUMA hint faults 2109622 0 NUMA hint local faults 2109622 0 NUMA hint local percent 100 100 NUMA pages migrated 0 0 Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> [3.8+] Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2015-04-14mm, thp: really limit transparent hugepage allocation to local nodeDavid Rientjes1-1/+2
Commit 077fcf116c8c ("mm/thp: allocate transparent hugepages on local node") restructured alloc_hugepage_vma() with the intent of only allocating transparent hugepages locally when there was not an effective interleave mempolicy. alloc_pages_exact_node() does not limit the allocation to the single node, however, but rather prefers it. This is because __GFP_THISNODE is not set which would cause the node-local nodemask to be passed. Without it, only a nodemask that prefers the local node is passed. Fix this by passing __GFP_THISNODE and falling back to small pages when the allocation fails. Commit 9f1b868a13ac ("mm: thp: khugepaged: add policy for finding target node") suffers from a similar problem for khugepaged, which is also fixed.

2015-04-14mm, mempolicy: migrate_to_node should only migrate to nodeDavid Rientjes1-1/+2
migrate_to_node() is intended to migrate a page from one source node to a target node. Today, migrate_to_node() could end up migrating to any node, not only the target node. This is because the page migration allocator, new_node_page() does not pass __GFP_THISNODE to alloc_pages_exact_node(). This causes the target node to be preferred but allows fallback to any other node in order of affinity. Prevent this by allocating with __GFP_THISNODE. If memory is not available, -ENOMEM will be returned as appropriate.

2015-02-11mm: pagewalk: fix misbehavior of walk_page_range for vma(VM_PFNMAP)Naoya Horiguchi1-0/+3
walk_page_range() silently skips vma having VM_PFNMAP set, which leads to undesirable behaviour at client end (who called walk_page_range). For example for pagemap_read(), when no callbacks are called against VM_PFNMAP vma, pagemap_read() may prepare pagemap data for next virtual address range at wrong index. That could confuse and/or break userspace applications. This patch avoid this misbehavior caused by vma(VM_PFNMAP) like follows: - for pagemap_read() which has its own ->pte_hole(), call the ->pte_hole() over vma(VM_PFNMAP), - for clear_refs and queue_pages which have their own ->tests_walk, just return 1 and skip vma(VM_PFNMAP). This is no problem because these are not interested in hole regions, - for other callers, just skip the vma(VM_PFNMAP) as a default behavior.

2015-02-11mempolicy: apply page table walker on queue_pages_range()Naoya Horiguchi1-136/+92
queue_pages_range() does page table walking in its own way now, but there is some code duplicate. This patch applies page table walker to reduce lines of code. queue_pages_range() has to do some precheck to determine whether we really walk over the vma or just skip it. Now we have test_walk() callback in mm_walk for this purpose, so we can do this replacement cleanly. queue_pages_test_walk() depends on not only the current vma but also the previous one, so queue_pages->prev is introduced to remember it.

2015-02-11mm/mempolicy.c: merge alloc_hugepage_vma to alloc_pages_vmaVlastimil Babka1-85/+33
The previous commit ("mm/thp: Allocate transparent hugepages on local node") introduced alloc_hugepage_vma() to mm/mempolicy.c to perform a special policy for THP allocations. The function has the same interface as alloc_pages_vma(), shares a lot of boilerplate code and a long comment. This patch merges the hugepage special case into alloc_pages_vma. The extra if condition should be cheap enough price to pay. We also prevent a (however unlikely) race with parallel mems_allowed update, which could make hugepage allocation restart only within the fallback call to alloc_hugepage_vma() and not reconsider the special rule in alloc_hugepage_vma(). Also by making sure mpol_cond_put(pol) is always called before actual allocation attempt, we can use a single exit path within the function. Also update the comment for missing node parameter and obsolete reference to mm_sem.

This make sure that we try to allocate hugepages from local node if allowed by mempolicy. If we can't, we fallback to small page allocation based on mempolicy. This is based on the observation that allocating pages on local node is more beneficial than allocating hugepages on remote node. With this patch applied we may find transparent huge page allocation failures if the current node doesn't have enough freee hugepages. Before this patch such failures result in us retrying the allocation on other nodes in the numa node mask.

2014-10-09mempolicy: sanitize the usage of get_task_policy()Oleg Nesterov1-11/+14
Cleanup + preparation. Every user of get_task_policy() calls it unconditionally, even if it is not going to use the result. get_task_policy() is cheap but still this does not look clean, plus the code looks simpler if get_task_policy() is called only when this is really needed. Note: I hope this is correct, but it is not clear why vma_policy_mof() doesn't fall back to get_task_policy() if ->get_policy() returns NULL.

printk is meant to be used with an associated log level. There are some instances of printk scattered around the mm code where the log level is missing. Add a log level and adhere to suggestions by scripts/checkpatch.pl by moving to the pr_* macros. Also add the typical pr_fmt definition so that print statements can be easily traced back to the modules where they occur, correlated one with another, etc. This will require the removal of some (now redundant) prefixes on a few print statements.

2014-06-06mm: add !pte_present() check on existing hugetlb_entry callbacksNaoya Horiguchi1-1/+5
The age table walker doesn't check non-present hugetlb entry in common path, so hugetlb_entry() callbacks must check it. The reason for this behavior is that some callers want to handle it in its own way. [ I think that reason is bogus, btw - it should just do what the regular code does, which is to call the "pte_hole()" function for such hugetlb entries - Linus] However, some callers don't check it now, which causes unpredictable result, for example when we have a race between migrating hugepage and reading /proc/pid/numa_maps. This patch fixes it by adding !pte_present checks on buggy callbacks. This bug exists for years and got visible by introducing hugepage migration.

2014-06-04mm, migration: add destination page freeing callbackDavid Rientjes1-2/+2
Memory migration uses a callback defined by the caller to determine how to allocate destination pages. When migration fails for a source page, however, it frees the destination page back to the system. This patch adds a memory migration callback defined by the caller to determine how to free destination pages. If a caller, such as memory compaction, builds its own freelist for migration targets, this can reuse already freed memory instead of scanning additional memory. If the caller provides a function to handle freeing of destination pages, it is called when page migration fails. If the caller passes NULL then freeing back to the system will be handled as usual. This patch introduces no functional change.

Since put_mems_allowed() is strictly optional, its a seqcount retry, we don't need to evaluate the function if the allocation was in fact successful, saving a smp_rmb some loads and comparisons on some relative fast-paths. Since the naming, get/put_mems_allowed() does suggest a mandatory pairing, rename the interface, as suggested by Mel, to resemble the seqcount interface. This gives us: read_mems_allowed_begin() and read_mems_allowed_retry(), where it is important to note that the return value of the latter call is inverted from its previous incarnation.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux Pull s390 compat wrapper rework from Heiko Carstens: "S390 compat system call wrapper simplification work. The intention of this work is to get rid of all hand written assembly compat system call wrappers on s390, which perform proper sign or zero extension, or pointer conversion of compat system call parameters. Instead all of this should be done with C code eg by using Al's COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macro. Therefore all common code and s390 specific compat system calls have been converted to the COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macro. In order to generate correct code all compat system calls may only have eg compat_ulong_t parameters, but no unsigned long parameters. Those patches which change parameter types from unsigned long to compat_ulong_t parameters are separate in this series, but shouldn't cause any harm. The only compat system calls which intentionally have 64 bit parameters (preadv64 and pwritev64) in support of the x86/32 ABI haven't been changed, but are now only available if an architecture defines __ARCH_WANT_COMPAT_SYS_PREADV64/PWRITEV64. System calls which do not have a compat variant but still need proper zero extension on s390, like eg "long sys_brk(unsigned long brk)" will get a proper wrapper function with the new s390 specific COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAPx() macro: COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAP1(brk, unsigned long, brk); which generates the following code (simplified): asmlinkage long sys_brk(unsigned long brk); asmlinkage long compat_sys_brk(long brk) { return sys_brk((u32)brk); } Given that the C file which contains all the COMPAT_SYSCALL_WRAP lines includes both linux/syscall.h and linux/compat.h, it will generate build errors, if the declaration of sys_brk() doesn't match, or if there exists a non-matching compat_sys_brk() declaration. In addition this will intentionally result in a link error if somewhere else a compat_sys_brk() function exists, which probably should have been used instead. Two more BUILD_BUG_ONs make sure the size and type of each compat syscall parameter can be handled correctly with the s390 specific macros. I converted the compat system calls step by step to verify the generated code is correct and matches the previous code. In fact it did not always match, however that was always a bug in the hand written asm code.

Use the active_nodes nodemask to make smarter decisions on NUMA migrations. In order to maximize performance of workloads that do not fit in one NUMA node, we want to satisfy the following criteria: 1) keep private memory local to each thread 2) avoid excessive NUMA migration of pages 3) distribute shared memory across the active nodes, to maximize memory bandwidth available to the workload This patch accomplishes that by implementing the following policy for NUMA migrations: 1) always migrate on a private fault 2) never migrate to a node that is not in the set of active nodes for the numa_group 3) always migrate from a node outside of the set of active nodes, to a node that is in that set 4) within the set of active nodes in the numa_group, only migrate from a node with more NUMA page faults, to a node with fewer NUMA page faults, with a 25% margin to avoid ping-ponging This results in most pages of a workload ending up on the actively used nodes, with reduced ping-ponging of pages between those nodes.

2014-01-28sched/numa, mm: Remove p->numa_migrate_deferredRik van Riel1-45/+0
Excessive migration of pages can hurt the performance of workloads that span multiple NUMA nodes. However, it turns out that the p->numa_migrate_deferred knob is a really big hammer, which does reduce migration rates, but does not actually help performance. Now that the second stage of the automatic numa balancing code has stabilized, it is time to replace the simplistic migration deferral code with something smarter.

2014-01-23mm: new_vma_page() cannot see NULL vma for hugetlb pagesMichal Hocko1-4/+2
Commit 11c731e81bb0 ("mm/mempolicy: fix !vma in new_vma_page()") has removed BUG_ON(!vma) from new_vma_page which is partially correct because page_address_in_vma will return EFAULT for non-linear mappings and at least shared shmem might be mapped this way. The patch also tried to prevent NULL ptr for hugetlb pages which is not correct AFAICS because hugetlb pages cannot be mapped as VM_NONLINEAR and other conditions in page_address_in_vma seem to be legit and catch real bugs. This patch restores BUG_ON for PageHuge to catch potential issues when the to-be-migrated page is not setup properly.

2014-01-23numa: add a sysctl for numa_balancingAndi Kleen1-1/+1
Add a working sysctl to enable/disable automatic numa memory balancing at runtime. This allows us to track down performance problems with this feature and is generally a good idea. This was possible earlier through debugfs, but only with special debugging options set. Also fix the boot message.

2013-12-18mm/mempolicy: fix !vma in new_vma_page()Wanpeng Li1-6/+8
BUG_ON(!vma) assumption is introduced by commit 0bf598d863e3 ("mbind: add BUG_ON(!vma) in new_vma_page()"), however, even if address = __vma_address(page, vma); and vma->start < address < vma->end page_address_in_vma() may still return -EFAULT because of many other conditions in it. As a result the while loop in new_vma_page() may end with vma=NULL. This patch revert the commit and also fix the potential dereference NULL pointer reported by Dan. http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=137689530323257&w=2 kernel BUG at mm/mempolicy.c:1204! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC CPU: 3 PID: 7056 Comm: trinity-child3 Not tainted 3.13.0-rc3+ #2 task: ffff8801ca5295d0 ti: ffff88005ab20000 task.ti: ffff88005ab20000 RIP: new_vma_page+0x70/0x90 RSP: 0000:ffff88005ab21db0 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: fffffffffffffff2 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: 0000000008040075 RSI: ffff8801c3d74600 RDI: ffffea00079a8b80 RBP: ffff88005ab21dc8 R08: 0000000000000004 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: fffffffffffffff2 R13: ffffea00079a8b80 R14: 0000000000400000 R15: 0000000000400000 FS: 00007ff49c6f4740(0000) GS:ffff880244e00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00007ff49c68f994 CR3: 000000005a205000 CR4: 00000000001407e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffe0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Stack: ffffea00079a8b80 ffffea00079a8bc0 ffffea00079a8ba0 ffff88005ab21e50 ffffffff811adc7a 0000000000000000 ffff8801ca5295d0 0000000464e224f8 0000000000000000 0000000000000002 0000000000000000 ffff88020ce75c00 Call Trace: migrate_pages+0x12a/0x850 SYSC_mbind+0x513/0x6a0 SyS_mbind+0xe/0x10 ia32_do_call+0x13/0x13 Code: 85 c0 75 2f 4c 89 e1 48 89 da 31 f6 bf da 00 02 00 65 44 8b 04 25 08 f7 1c 00 e8 ec fd ff ff 5b 41 5c 41 5d 5d c3 0f 1f 44 00 00 <0f> 0b 66 0f 1f 44 00 00 4c 89 e6 48 89 df ba 01 00 00 00 e8 48 RIP [<ffffffff8119f200>] new_vma_page+0x70/0x90 RSP <ffff88005ab21db0> Signed-off-by: Wanpeng Li <liwanp@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reported-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com> Reported-by: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Naoya Horiguchi <n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com> Reviewed-by: Bob Liu <bob.liu@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
