libnvdimm for 4.16
* Require struct page by default for filesystem DAX to remove a number of surprising failure cases. This includes failures with direct I/O, gdb and fork(2). * Add support for the new Platform Capabilities Structure added to the NFIT in ACPI 6.2a. This new table tells us whether the platform supports flushing of CPU and memory controller caches on unexpected power loss events. * Revamp vmem_altmap and dev_pagemap handling to clean up code and better support future future PCI P2P uses. * Deprecate the ND_IOCTL_SMART_THRESHOLD command whose payload has become out-of-sync with recent versions of the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL spec, and instead rely on the generic ND_CMD_CALL approach used by the two other IOCTL families, NVDIMM_FAMILY_{HPE,MSFT}. * Enhance nfit_test so we can test some of the new things added in version 1.6 of the DSM specification. This includes testing firmware download and simulating the Last Shutdown State (LSS) status. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIcBAABAgAGBQJaeOg0AAoJEJ/BjXdf9fLBAFoQAI/IgcgJ2h9lfEpgjBRTC44t 2p8dxwT1Ofw3Y1aR/tI8nYRXjRtAGuP4UIeRVnb1CL/N7PagJyoMGU+6hmzg+ptY c7cEDvw6nZOhrFwXx/xn7R53sYG8zH+UE6+jTR/PP/G4mQJfFCg4iF9R72Y7z0n7 aurf82Kz137NPUy6dNr4V9bmPMJWAaOci9WOj5SKddR5ZSNbjoxylTwQRvre5y4r 7HQTScEkirABOdSf1JoXTSUXCH/RC9UFFXR03ScHstGb1HjCj3KdcicVc50Q++Ub qsEudhE6i44PEW1Hh4Qkg6hjHMEa8qHP+ShBuRuVaUmlghYTQn66niJAYLZilwdz EVjE7vR+toHA5g3YCalEmYVutUEhIDkh/xfpd7vM6ZorUGJy95a2elEJs2fHBffC gEhnCip7FROPcK5RDNUM8hBgnG/q5wwWPQMKY+6rKDZQx3mXssCrKp2Vlx7kBwMG rpblkEpYjPonbLEHxsSU8yTg9Uq55ciIWgnOToffcjZvjbihi8WUVlHcwHUMPf/o DWElg+4qmG0Sdd4S2NeAGwTl1Ewrf2RrtUGMjHtH4OUFs1wo6ZmfrxFzzMfoZ1Od ko/s65v4uwtTzECh2o+XQaNsReR5YETXxmA40N/Jpo7/7twABIoZ/ASvj/3ZBYj+ sie+u2rTod8/gQWSfHpJ =MIMX -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm Pull libnvdimm updates from Ross Zwisler: - Require struct page by default for filesystem DAX to remove a number of surprising failure cases.

mm: split deferred_init_range into initializing and freeing parts
In deferred_init_range() we initialize struct pages, and also free them to buddy allocator. We do it in separate loops, because buddy page is computed ahead, so we do not want to access a struct page that has not been initialized yet. There is still, however, a corner case where it is potentially possible to access uninitialized struct page: this is when buddy page is from the next memblock range. This patch fixes this problem by splitting deferred_init_range() into two functions: one to initialize struct pages, and another to free them. In addition, this patch brings the following improvements: - Get rid of __def_free() helper function. And simplifies loop logic by adding a new pfn validity check function: deferred_pfn_valid(). - Reduces number of variables that we track. So, there is a higher chance that we will avoid using stack to store/load variables inside hot loops. - Enables future multi-threading of these functions: do initialization in multiple threads, wait for all threads to finish, do freeing part in multithreading. Tested on x86 with 1T of memory to make sure no regressions are introduced.

mm/cma: fix alloc_contig_range ret code/potential leak
If the call __alloc_contig_migrate_range() in alloc_contig_range returns
-EBUSY, processing continues so that test_pages_isolated() is called
where there is a tracepoint to identify the busy pages. However, it is
possible for busy pages to become available between the calls to these
two routines. In this case, the range of pages may be allocated.
Unfortunately, the original return code (ret == -EBUSY) is still set and
returned to the caller. Therefore, the caller believes the pages were
not allocated and they are leaked.
Update the comment to indicate that allocation is still possible even if
__alloc_contig_migrate_range returns -EBUSY. Also, clear return code in
this case so that it is not accidentally used or returned to caller.

mm: make alloc_node_mem_map a void call if we don't have CONFIG_FLAT_NODE_MEM_MAP
free_area_init_node() calls alloc_node_mem_map(), but this function does nothing unless we have CONFIG_FLAT_NODE_MEM_MAP. As a cleanup, we can move the "#ifdef CONFIG_FLAT_NODE_MEM_MAP" within alloc_node_mem_map() out of the function, and define a alloc_node_mem_map() { } when CONFIG_FLAT_NODE_MEM_MAP is not present. This also moves the printk that lays within the "#ifdef CONFIG_FLAT_NODE_MEM_MAP" block from free_area_init_node() to alloc_node_mem_map(), getting rid of the "#ifdef CONFIG_FLAT_NODE_MEM_MAP" in free_area_init_node().

mm: simplify nodemask printing
alloc_warn() and dump_header() have to explicitly handle NULL nodemask which forces both paths to use pr_cont. We can do better. printk already handles NULL pointers properly so all we need is to teach nodemask_pr_args to handle NULL nodemask carefully. This allows simplification of both alloc_warn() and dump_header() and gets rid of pr_cont altogether. This patch has been motivated by patch from Joe Perches http://lkml.kernel.org/r/b31236dfe3fc924054fd7842bde678e71d193638.1509991345.git.joe@perches.com [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix tile warning, per Arnd] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171109100531.3cn2hcqnuj7mjaju@dhcp22.suse.cz Signed-off-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Acked-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

mm/page_alloc.c: broken deferred calculation
In reset_deferred_meminit() we determine number of pages that must not
be deferred. We initialize pages for at least 2G of memory, but also
pages for reserved memory in this node.
The reserved memory is determined in this function:
memblock_reserved_memory_within(), which operates over physical
addresses, and returns size in bytes. However, reset_deferred_meminit()
assumes that that this function operates with pfns, and returns page
count.
The result is that in the best case machine boots slower than expected
due to initializing more pages than needed in single thread, and in the
worst case panics because fewer than needed pages are initialized early.

This is the second step which introduces a tunable interface that allow numa stats configurable for optimizing zone_statistics(), as suggested by Dave Hansen and Ying Huang. ========================================================================= When page allocation performance becomes a bottleneck and you can tolerate some possible tool breakage and decreased numa counter precision, you can do: echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/numa_stat In this case, numa counter update is ignored. We can see about *4.8%*(185->176) drop of cpu cycles per single page allocation and reclaim on Jesper's page_bench01 (single thread) and *8.1%*(343->315) drop of cpu cycles per single page allocation and reclaim on Jesper's page_bench03 (88 threads) running on a 2-Socket Broadwell-based server (88 threads, 126G memory).

mm: remove __GFP_COLD
As the page free path makes no distinction between cache hot and cold pages, there is no real useful ordering of pages in the free list that allocation requests can take advantage of. Juding from the users of __GFP_COLD, it is likely that a number of them are the result of copying other sites instead of actually measuring the impact. Remove the __GFP_COLD parameter which simplifies a number of paths in the page allocator. This is potentially controversial but bear in mind that the size of the per-cpu pagelists versus modern cache sizes means that the whole per-cpu list can often fit in the L3 cache. Hence, there is only a potential benefit for microbenchmarks that alloc/free pages in a tight loop. It's even worse when THP is taken into account which has little or no chance of getting a cache-hot page as the per-cpu list is bypassed and the zeroing of multiple pages will thrash the cache anyway. The truncate microbenchmarks are not shown as this patch affects the allocation path and not the free path. A page fault microbenchmark was tested but it showed no sigificant difference which is not surprising given that the __GFP_COLD branches are a miniscule percentage of the fault path.

mm: remove cold parameter from free_hot_cold_page*
Most callers users of free_hot_cold_page claim the pages being released are cache hot. The exception is the page reclaim paths where it is likely that enough pages will be freed in the near future that the per-cpu lists are going to be recycled and the cache hotness information is lost. As no one really cares about the hotness of pages being released to the allocator, just ditch the parameter. The APIs are renamed to indicate that it's no longer about hot/cold pages. It should also be less confusing as there are subtle differences between them. __free_pages drops a reference and frees a page when the refcount reaches zero. free_hot_cold_page handled pages whose refcount was already zero which is non-obvious from the name. free_unref_page should be more obvious. No performance impact is expected as the overhead is marginal. The parameter is removed simply because it is a bit stupid to have a useless parameter copied everywhere.

mm, page_alloc: enable/disable IRQs once when freeing a list of pages
Patch series "Follow-up for speed up page cache truncation", v2. This series is a follow-on for Jan Kara's series "Speed up page cache truncation" series. We both ended up looking at the same problem but saw different problems based on the same data. This series builds upon his work. A variety of workloads were compared on four separate machines but each machine showed gains albeit at different levels. Minimally, some of the differences are due to NUMA where truncating data from a remote node is slower than a local node. The workloads checked were o sparse truncate microbenchmark, tiny o sparse truncate microbenchmark, large o reaim-io disk workfile o dbench4 (modified by mmtests to produce more stable results) o filebench varmail configuration for small memory size o bonnie, directory operations, working set size 2*RAM reaim-io, dbench and filebench all showed minor gains. Truncation does not dominate those workloads but were tested to ensure no other regressions. They will not be reported further. The sparse truncate microbench was written by Jan. It creates a number of files and then times how long it takes to truncate each one. The "tiny" configuraiton creates a number of files that easily fits in memory and times how long it takes to truncate files with page cache. The large configuration uses enough files to have data that is twice the size of memory and so timings there include truncating page cache and working set shadow entries in the radix tree. Patches 1-4 are the most relevant parts of this series. Patches 5-8 are optional as they are deleting code that is essentially useless but has a negligible performance impact. The changelogs have more information on performance but just for bonnie delete options, the main comparison is bonnie 4.14.0-rc5 4.14.0-rc5 4.14.0-rc5 jan-v2 vanilla mel-v2 Hmean SeqCreate ops 76.20 ( 0.00%) 75.80 ( -0.53%) 76.80 ( 0.79%) Hmean SeqCreate read 85.00 ( 0.00%) 85.00 ( 0.00%) 85.00 ( 0.00%) Hmean SeqCreate del 13752.31 ( 0.00%) 12090.23 ( -12.09%) 15304.84 ( 11.29%) Hmean RandCreate ops 76.00 ( 0.00%) 75.60 ( -0.53%) 77.00 ( 1.32%) Hmean RandCreate read 96.80 ( 0.00%) 96.80 ( 0.00%) 97.00 ( 0.21%) Hmean RandCreate del 13233.75 ( 0.00%) 11525.35 ( -12.91%) 14446.61 ( 9.16%) Jan's series is the baseline and the vanilla kernel is 12% slower where as this series on top gains another 11%. This is from a different machine than the data in the changelogs but the detailed data was not collected as there was no substantial change in v2. This patch (of 8): Freeing a list of pages current enables/disables IRQs for each page freed. This patch splits freeing a list of pages into two operations -- preparing the pages for freeing and the actual freeing.

mm/page_alloc: make sure __rmqueue() etc are always inline
__rmqueue(), __rmqueue_fallback(), __rmqueue_smallest() and __rmqueue_cma_fallback() are all in page allocator's hot path and better be finished as soon as possible. One way to make them faster is by making them inline. But as Andrew Morton and Andi Kleen pointed out: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/10/10/1252 https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/10/10/1279 To make sure they are inlined, we should use __always_inline for them. With the will-it-scale/page_fault1/process benchmark, when using nr_cpu processes to stress buddy, the results for will-it-scale.processes with and without the patch are: On a 2-sockets Intel-Skylake machine: compiler base head gcc-4.4.7 6496131 6911823 +6.4% gcc-4.9.4 7225110 7731072 +7.0% gcc-5.4.1 7054224 7688146 +9.0% gcc-6.2.0 7059794 7651675 +8.4% On a 4-sockets Intel-Skylake machine: compiler base head gcc-4.4.7 13162890 13508193 +2.6% gcc-4.9.4 14997463 15484353 +3.2% gcc-5.4.1 14708711 15449805 +5.0% gcc-6.2.0 14574099 15349204 +5.3% The above 4 compilers are used because I've done the tests through Intel's Linux Kernel Performance(LKP) infrastructure and they are the available compilers there. The benefit being less on 4 sockets machine is due to the lock contention there(perf-profile/native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath=81%) is less severe than on the 2 sockets machine(85%). What the benchmark does is: it forks nr_cpu processes and then each process does the following: 1 mmap() 128M anonymous space; 2 writes to each page there to trigger actual page allocation; 3 munmap() it. in a loop. https://github.com/antonblanchard/will-it-scale/blob/master/tests/page_fault1.c Binary size wise, I have locally built them with different compilers: [aaron@aaronlu obj]$ size */*/mm/page_alloc.o text data bss dec hex filename 37409 9904 8524 55837 da1d gcc-4.9.4/base/mm/page_alloc.o 38273 9904 8524 56701 dd7d gcc-4.9.4/head/mm/page_alloc.o 37465 9840 8428 55733 d9b5 gcc-5.5.0/base/mm/page_alloc.o 38169 9840 8428 56437 dc75 gcc-5.5.0/head/mm/page_alloc.o 37573 9840 8428 55841 da21 gcc-6.4.0/base/mm/page_alloc.o 38261 9840 8428 56529 dcd1 gcc-6.4.0/head/mm/page_alloc.o 36863 9840 8428 55131 d75b gcc-7.2.0/base/mm/page_alloc.o 37711 9840 8428 55979 daab gcc-7.2.0/head/mm/page_alloc.o Text size increased about 800 bytes for mm/page_alloc.o.

mm: stop zeroing memory during allocation in vmemmap
vmemmap_alloc_block() will no longer zero the block, so zero memory at its call sites for everything except struct pages. Struct page memory is zero'd by struct page initialization. Replace allocators in sparse-vmemmap to use the non-zeroing version. So, we will get the performance improvement by zeroing the memory in parallel when struct pages are zeroed. Add struct page zeroing as a part of initialization of other fields in __init_single_page().

mm: zero reserved and unavailable struct pages
Some memory is reserved but unavailable: not present in memblock.memory (because not backed by physical pages), but present in memblock.reserved. Such memory has backing struct pages, but they are not initialized by going through __init_single_page(). In some cases these struct pages are accessed even if they do not contain any data. One example is page_to_pfn() might access page->flags if this is where section information is stored (CONFIG_SPARSEMEM, SECTION_IN_PAGE_FLAGS). One example of such memory: trim_low_memory_range() unconditionally reserves from pfn 0, but e820__memblock_setup() might provide the exiting memory from pfn 1 (i.e. KVM). Since struct pages are zeroed in __init_single_page(), and not during allocation time, we must zero such struct pages explicitly. The patch involves adding a new memblock iterator: for_each_resv_unavail_range(i, p_start, p_end) Which iterates through reserved && !memory lists, and we zero struct pages explicitly by calling mm_zero_struct_page(). === Here is more detailed example of problem that this patch is addressing: Run tested on qemu with the following arguments: -enable-kvm -cpu kvm64 -m 512 -smp 2 This patch reports that there are 98 unavailable pages. They are: pfn 0 and pfns in range [159, 255]. Note, trim_low_memory_range() reserves only pfns in range [0, 15], it does not reserve [159, 255] ones. e820__memblock_setup() reports linux that the following physical ranges are available: [1 , 158] [256, 130783] Notice, that exactly unavailable pfns are missing! Now, lets check what we have in zone 0: [1, 131039] pfn 0, is not part of the zone, but pfns [1, 158], are. However, the bigger problem we have if we do not initialize these struct pages is with memory hotplug. Because, that path operates at 2M boundaries (section_nr). And checks if 2M range of pages is hot removable. It starts with first pfn from zone, rounds it down to 2M boundary (sturct pages are allocated at 2M boundaries when vmemmap is created), and checks if that section is hot removable. In this case start with pfn 1 and convert it down to pfn 0. Later pfn is converted to struct page, and some fields are checked. Now, if we do not zero struct pages, we get unpredictable results. In fact when CONFIG_VM_DEBUG is enabled, and we explicitly set all vmemmap memory to ones, the following panic is observed with kernel test without this patch applied: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: is_pageblock_removable_nolock+0x35/0x90 PGD 0 P4D 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT ... task: ffff88001f4e2900 task.stack: ffffc90000314000 RIP: 0010:is_pageblock_removable_nolock+0x35/0x90 Call Trace: ? is_mem_section_removable+0x5a/0xd0 show_mem_removable+0x6b/0xa0 dev_attr_show+0x1b/0x50 sysfs_kf_seq_show+0xa1/0x100 kernfs_seq_show+0x22/0x30 seq_read+0x1ac/0x3a0 kernfs_fop_read+0x36/0x190 ? security_file_permission+0x90/0xb0 __vfs_read+0x16/0x30 vfs_read+0x81/0x130 SyS_read+0x44/0xa0 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x1f/0xbd Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171013173214.27300-7-pasha.tatashin@oracle.com Signed-off-by: Pavel Tatashin <pasha.tatashin@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Steven Sistare <steven.sistare@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Daniel Jordan <daniel.m.jordan@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Bob Picco <bob.picco@oracle.com> Tested-by: Bob Picco <bob.picco@oracle.com> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Alexander Potapenko <glider@google.com> Cc: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@virtuozzo.com> Cc: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Cc: David S.

mm: deferred_init_memmap improvements
Patch series "complete deferred page initialization", v12. SMP machines can benefit from the DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT config option, which defers initializing struct pages until all cpus have been started so it can be done in parallel. However, this feature is sub-optimal, because the deferred page initialization code expects that the struct pages have already been zeroed, and the zeroing is done early in boot with a single thread only. Also, we access that memory and set flags before struct pages are initialized. All of this is fixed in this patchset. In this work we do the following: - Never read access struct page until it was initialized - Never set any fields in struct pages before they are initialized - Zero struct page at the beginning of struct page initialization ========================================================================== Performance improvements on x86 machine with 8 nodes: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E7-8895 v3 @ 2.60GHz and 1T of memory: TIME SPEED UP base no deferred: 95.796233s fix no deferred: 79.978956s 19.77% base deferred: 77.254713s fix deferred: 55.050509s 40.34% ========================================================================== SPARC M6 3600 MHz with 15T of memory TIME SPEED UP base no deferred: 358.335727s fix no deferred: 302.320936s 18.52% base deferred: 237.534603s fix deferred: 182.103003s 30.44% ========================================================================== Raw dmesg output with timestamps: x86 base no deferred: https://hastebin.com/ofunepurit.scala x86 base deferred: https://hastebin.com/ifazegeyas.scala x86 fix no deferred: https://hastebin.com/pegocohevo.scala x86 fix deferred: https://hastebin.com/ofupevikuk.scala sparc base no deferred: https://hastebin.com/ibobeteken.go sparc base deferred: https://hastebin.com/fariqimiyu.go sparc fix no deferred: https://hastebin.com/muhegoheyi.go sparc fix deferred: https://hastebin.com/xadinobutu.go This patch (of 11): deferred_init_memmap() is called when struct pages are initialized later in boot by slave CPUs. This patch simplifies and optimizes this function, and also fixes a couple issues (described below). The main change is that now we are iterating through free memblock areas instead of all configured memory. Thus, we do not have to check if the struct page has already been initialized. ===== In deferred_init_memmap() where all deferred struct pages are initialized we have a check like this: if (page->flags) { VM_BUG_ON(page_zone(page) != zone); goto free_range; } This way we are checking if the current deferred page has already been initialized. It works, because memory for struct pages has been zeroed, and the only way flags are not zero if it went through __init_single_page() before. But, once we change the current behavior and won't zero the memory in memblock allocator, we cannot trust anything inside "struct page"es until they are initialized. This patch fixes this. The deferred_init_memmap() is re-written to loop through only free memory ranges provided by memblock. Note, this first issue is relevant only when the following change is merged: ===== This patch fixes another existing issue on systems that have holes in zones i.e CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE is defined. In for_each_mem_pfn_range() we have code like this: if (!pfn_valid_within(pfn) goto free_range; Note: 'page' is not set to NULL and is not incremented but 'pfn' advances. Thus means if deferred struct pages are enabled on systems with these kind of holes, linux would get memory corruptions. I have fixed this issue by defining a new macro that performs all the necessary operations when we free the current set of pages.

kmemcheck: remove annotations
Patch series "kmemcheck: kill kmemcheck", v2. As discussed at LSF/MM, kill kmemcheck. KASan is a replacement that is able to work without the limitation of kmemcheck (single CPU, slow). KASan is already upstream. We are also not aware of any users of kmemcheck (or users who don't consider KASan as a suitable replacement). The only objection was that since KASAN wasn't supported by all GCC versions provided by distros at that time we should hold off for 2 years, and try again. Now that 2 years have passed, and all distros provide gcc that supports KASAN, kill kmemcheck again for the very same reasons.

mm, page_alloc: fail has_unmovable_pages when seeing reserved pages
Reserved pages should be completely ignored by the core mm because they have a special meaning for their owners. has_unmovable_pages doesn't check those so we rely on other tests (reference count, or PageLRU) to fail on such pages.

mm: distinguish CMA and MOVABLE isolation in has_unmovable_pages()
Joonsoo has noticed that "mm: drop migrate type checks from has_unmovable_pages" would break CMA allocator because it relies on has_unmovable_pages returning false even for CMA pageblocks which in fact don't have to be movable: alloc_contig_range start_isolate_page_range set_migratetype_isolate has_unmovable_pages This is a result of the code sharing between CMA and memory hotplug while each one has a different idea of what has_unmovable_pages should return. This is unfortunate but fixing it properly would require a lot of code duplication. Fix the issue by introducing the requested migrate type argument and special case MIGRATE_CMA case where CMA page blocks are handled properly. This will work for memory hotplug because it requires MIGRATE_MOVABLE.

mm: drop migrate type checks from has_unmovable_pages
Michael has noticed that the memory offline tries to migrate kernel code pages when doing echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory0/online The current implementation will fail the operation after several failed page migration attempts but we shouldn't even attempt to migrate that memory and fail right away because this memory is clearly not migrateable. This will become a real problem when we drop the retry loop counter resp. timeout. The real problem is in has_unmovable_pages in fact. We should fail if there are any non migrateable pages in the area. In orther to guarantee that remove the migrate type checks because MIGRATE_MOVABLE is not guaranteed to contain only migrateable pages. It is merely a heuristic. Similarly MIGRATE_CMA does guarantee that the page allocator doesn't allocate any non-migrateable pages from the block but CMA allocations themselves are unlikely to migrateable. Therefore remove both checks.

mm: meminit: mark init_reserved_page as __meminit
The function is called from __meminit context and calls other __meminit
functions but isn't it self mark as such today:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text.unlikely+0x4516): Section mismatch in reference from the function init_reserved_page() to the function .meminit.text:early_pfn_to_nid()
The function init_reserved_page() references the function __meminit early_pfn_to_nid().
This is often because init_reserved_page lacks a __meminit annotation or the annotation of early_pfn_to_nid is wrong.
On most compilers, we don't notice this because the function gets
inlined all the time. Adding __meminit here fixes the harmless warning
for the old versions and is generally the correct annotation.

mm: change the call sites of numa statistics items
Patch series "Separate NUMA statistics from zone statistics", v2. Each page allocation updates a set of per-zone statistics with a call to zone_statistics(). As discussed in 2017 MM summit, these are a substantial source of overhead in the page allocator and are very rarely consumed. This significant overhead in cache bouncing caused by zone counters (NUMA associated counters) update in parallel in multi-threaded page allocation (pointed out by Dave Hansen). A link to the MM summit slides: http://people.netfilter.org/hawk/presentations/MM-summit2017/MM-summit2017-JesperBrouer.pdf To mitigate this overhead, this patchset separates NUMA statistics from zone statistics framework, and update NUMA counter threshold to a fixed size of MAX_U16 - 2, as a small threshold greatly increases the update frequency of the global counter from local per cpu counter (suggested by Ying Huang). The rationality is that these statistics counters don't need to be read often, unlike other VM counters, so it's not a problem to use a large threshold and make readers more expensive. With this patchset, we see 31.3% drop of CPU cycles(537-->369, see below) for per single page allocation and reclaim on Jesper's page_bench03 benchmark. Meanwhile, this patchset keeps the same style of virtual memory statistics with little end-user-visible effects (only move the numa stats to show behind zone page stats, see the first patch for details). I did an experiment of single page allocation and reclaim concurrently using Jesper's page_bench03 benchmark on a 2-Socket Broadwell-based server (88 processors with 126G memory) with different size of threshold of pcp counter.

mm, oom: do not rely on TIF_MEMDIE for memory reserves access
For ages we have been relying on TIF_MEMDIE thread flag to mark OOM
victims and then, among other things, to give these threads full access
to memory reserves. There are few shortcomings of this implementation,
though.
First of all and the most serious one is that the full access to memory
reserves is quite dangerous because we leave no safety room for the
system to operate and potentially do last emergency steps to move on.
Secondly this flag is per task_struct while the OOM killer operates on
mm_struct granularity so all processes sharing the given mm are killed.
Giving the full access to all these task_structs could lead to a quick
memory reserves depletion. We have tried to reduce this risk by giving
TIF_MEMDIE only to the main thread and the currently allocating task but
that doesn't really solve this problem while it surely opens up a room
for corner cases - e.g. GFP_NO{FS,IO} requests might loop inside the
allocator without access to memory reserves because a particular thread
was not the group leader.
Now that we have the oom reaper and that all oom victims are reapable

mm, page_alloc: simplify zonelist initialization
build_zonelists gradually builds zonelists from the nearest to the most distant node. As we do not know how many populated zones we will have in each node we rely on the _zoneref to terminate initialized part of the zonelist by a NULL zone. While this is functionally correct it is quite suboptimal because we cannot allow updaters to race with zonelists users because they could see an empty zonelist and fail the allocation or hit the OOM killer in the worst case. We can do much better, though. We can store the node ordering into an already existing node_order array and then give this array to build_zonelists_in_node_order and do the whole initialization at once. zonelists consumers still might see halfway initialized state but that should be much more tolerateable because the list will not be empty and they would either see some zone twice or skip over some zone(s) in the worst case which shouldn't lead to immediate failures. While at it let's simplify build_zonelists_node which is rather confusing now. It gets an index into the zoneref array and returns the updated index for the next iteration. Let's rename the function to build_zonerefs_node to better reflect its purpose and give it zoneref array to update. The function doesn't the index anymore. It just returns the number of added zones so that the caller can advance the zonered array start for the next update. This patch alone doesn't introduce any functional change yet, though, it is merely a preparatory work for later changes.

mm, page_alloc: do not set_cpu_numa_mem on empty nodes initialization
__build_all_zonelists reinitializes each online cpu local node for CONFIG_HAVE_MEMORYLESS_NODES. This makes sense because previously memory less nodes could gain some memory during memory hotplug and so the local node should be changed for CPUs close to such a node. It makes less sense to do that unconditionally for a newly creaded NUMA node which is still offline and without any memory. Let's also simplify the cpu loop and use for_each_online_cpu instead of an explicit cpu_online check for all possible cpus.

mm, page_alloc: rip out ZONELIST_ORDER_ZONE
Patch series "cleanup zonelists initialization", v1. This is aimed at cleaning up the zonelists initialization code we have but the primary motivation was bug report [2] which got resolved but the usage of stop_machine is just too ugly to live. Most patches are straightforward but 3 of them need a special consideration. Patch 1 removes zone ordered zonelists completely. I am CCing linux-api because this is a user visible change. As I argue in the patch description I do not think we have a strong usecase for it these days. I have kept sysctl in place and warn into the log if somebody tries to configure zone lists ordering. If somebody has a real usecase for it we can revert this patch but I do not expect anybody will actually notice runtime differences. This patch is not strictly needed for the rest but it made patch 6 easier to implement. Patch 7 removes stop_machine from build_all_zonelists without adding any special synchronization between iterators and updater which I _believe_ is acceptable as explained in the changelog. I hope I am not missing anything. Patch 8 then removes zonelists_mutex which is kind of ugly as well and not really needed AFAICS but a care should be taken when double checking my thinking. This patch (of 9): Supporting zone ordered zonelists costs us just a lot of code while the usefulness is arguable if existent at all. Mel has already made node ordering default on 64b systems. 32b systems are still using ZONELIST_ORDER_ZONE because it is considered better to fallback to a different NUMA node rather than consume precious lowmem zones. This argument is, however, weaken by the fact that the memory reclaim has been reworked to be node rather than zone oriented. This means that lowmem requests have to skip over all highmem pages on LRUs already and so zone ordering doesn't save the reclaim time much. So the only advantage of the zone ordering is under a light memory pressure when highmem requests do not ever hit into lowmem zones and the lowmem pressure doesn't need to reclaim. Considering that 32b NUMA systems are rather suboptimal already and it is generally advisable to use 64b kernel on such a HW I believe we should rather care about the code maintainability and just get rid of ZONELIST_ORDER_ZONE altogether. Keep systcl in place and warn if somebody tries to set zone ordering either from kernel command line or the sysctl.

mm: discard memblock data later
There is existing use after free bug when deferred struct pages are
enabled:
The memblock_add() allocates memory for the memory array if more than
128 entries are needed. See comment in e820__memblock_setup():
* The bootstrap memblock region count maximum is 128 entries
* (INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS), but EFI might pass us more E820 entries
* than that - so allow memblock resizing.
This memblock memory is freed here:
free_low_memory_core_early()
We access the freed memblock.memory later in boot when deferred pages
are initialized in this path:
deferred_init_memmap()
for_each_mem_pfn_range()
__next_mem_pfn_range()
type = &memblock.memory;
One possible explanation for why this use-after-free hasn't been hit
before is that the limit of INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS has never been
exceeded at least on systems where deferred struct pages were enabled.
Tested by reducing INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS down to 4 from the current 128,
and verifying in qemu that this code is getting excuted and that the
freed pages are sane.
