Kirill A. Shutemov bae473a423 mm: introduce fault_env
The idea borrowed from Peter's patch from patchset on speculative page
faults[1]:

Instead of passing around the endless list of function arguments,
replace the lot with a single structure so we can change context without
endless function signature changes.

The changes are mostly mechanical with exception of faultaround code:
filemap_map_pages() got reworked a bit.

This patch is preparation for the next one.

Kirill A. Shutemov 1f52e67e5e khugepaged: recheck pmd after mmap_sem re-acquired
Vlastimil noted[1] that pmd can be no longer valid after we drop
mmap_sem.  We need recheck it once mmap_sem taken again.

Ebru Akagunduz 7269586252 mm, thp: make swapin readahead under down_read of mmap_sem
Currently khugepaged makes swapin readahead under down_write.  This
patch supplies to make swapin readahead under down_read instead of
down_write.

The patch was tested with a test program that allocates 800MB of memory,
writes to it, and then sleeps.  The system was forced to swap out all.
Afterwards, the test program touches the area by writing, it skips a
page in each 20 pages of the area.

Ebru Akagunduz 8a966ed746 mm: make swapin readahead to improve thp collapse rate
This patch makes swapin readahead to improve thp collapse rate.  When
khugepaged scanned pages, there can be a few of the pages in swap area.

With the patch THP can collapse 4kB pages into a THP when there are up
to max_ptes_swap swap ptes in a 2MB range.

The patch was tested with a test program that allocates 400B of memory,
writes to it, and then sleeps.  I force the system to swap out all.
Afterwards, the test program touches the area by writing, it skips a
page in each 20 pages of the area.

Without the patch, system did not swap in readahead.  THP rate was %65
of the program of the memory, it did not change over time.

With this patch, after 10 minutes of waiting khugepaged had collapsed
%99 of the program's memory.

Introduce a new sysfs integer knob
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/max_ptes_swap which makes
optimistic check for swapin readahead to increase thp collapse rate.
Before getting swapped out pages to memory, checks them and allows up to a
certain number.  It also prints out using tracepoints amount of unmapped

I'm not sure of the full scenario of the reproduction, but my debug
showed that split_huge_pmd_address(freeze=true) returned without running
main code of pmd splitting because pmd_present(*pmd) in precheck somehow
returned 0.  If this happens, the subsequent try_to_unmap() fails and
returns non-zero (because page_mapcount() still > 0), and finally
VM_BUG_ON() fires.  This patch tries to fix it by prechecking pmd state
inside ptl.

Huang Ying 9818b8cde6 madvise_free, thp: fix madvise_free_huge_pmd return value after splitting
madvise_free_huge_pmd should return 0 if the fallback PTE operations are
required.  In madvise_free_huge_pmd, if part pages of THP are discarded,
the THP will be split and fallback PTE operations should be used if
splitting succeeds.  But the original code will make fallback PTE
operations skipped, after splitting succeeds.  Fix that via make
madvise_free_huge_pmd return 0 after splitting successfully, so that the
fallback PTE operations will be done.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
 "The bulk of this update was stabilized before the merge window and
  appeared in -next.  The "device dax" implementation was revised this
  week in response to review feedback, and to address failures detected
  by the recently expanded ndctl unit test suite.

  Not included in this pull request are two dax topic branches (dax
  error handling, and dax radix-tree locking).  These topics were
  deferred to get a few more days of -next integration testing, and to
  coordinate a branch baseline with Ted and the ext4 tree.  Vishal and
  Ross will send the error handling and locking topics respectively in
  the next few days.

  This branch has received a positive build result from the kbuild robot
  across 226 configs.

Dan Williams dee4107924 /dev/dax, core: file operations and dax-mmap
The "Device DAX" core enables dax mappings of performance / feature
differentiated memory.  An open mapping or file handle keeps the backing
struct device live, but new mappings are only possible while the device
is enabled.   Faults are handled under rcu_read_lock to synchronize
with the enabled state of the device.

Similar to the filesystem-dax case the backing memory may optionally
have struct page entries.  However, unlike fs-dax there is no support
for private mappings, or mappings that are not backed by media (see
use of zero-page in fs-dax).

Mappings are always guaranteed to match the alignment of the dax_region.
If the dax_region is configured to have a 2MB alignment, all mappings
are guaranteed to be backed by a pmd entry.  Contrast this determinism
with the fs-dax case where pmd mappings are opportunistic.  If userspace
attempts to force a misaligned mapping, the driver will fail the mmap
attempt.  See dax_dev_check_vma() for other scenarios that are rejected,
like MAP_PRIVATE mappings.

David Rientjes f050897778 mm, thp: khugepaged should scan when sleep value is written
If a large value is written to scan_sleep_millisecs, for example, that
period must lapse before khugepaged will wake up for periodic
collapsing.

If this value is tuned to 1 day, for example, and then re-tuned to its
default 10s, khugepaged will still wait for a day before scanning again.

This patch causes khugepaged to wakeup immediately when the value is
changed and then sleep until that value is rewritten or the new value
lapses.

Remove move_huge_pmd()'s redundant new_vma arg: all it was used for was
a VM_NOHUGEPAGE check on new_vma flags, but the new_vma is cloned from
the old vma, so a trans_huge_pmd in the new_vma will be as acceptable as
it was in the old vma, alignment and size permitting.

Joonsoo Kim 0139aa7b7f mm: rename _count, field of the struct page, to _refcount
Many developers already know that field for reference count of the
struct page is _count and atomic type.  They would try to handle it
directly and this could break the purpose of page reference count
tracepoint.  To prevent direct _count modification, this patch rename it
to _refcount and add warning message on the code.  After that, developer
who need to handle reference count will find that field should not be
accessed directly.

Andrea Arcangeli 6d0a07edd1 mm: thp: calculate the mapcount correctly for THP pages during WP faults
This will provide fully accuracy to the mapcount calculation in the
write protect faults, so page pinning will not get broken by false
positive copy-on-writes.

total_mapcount() isn't the right calculation needed in
reuse_swap_page(), so this introduces a page_trans_huge_mapcount()
that is effectively the full accurate return value for page_mapcount()
if dealing with Transparent Hugepages, however we only use the
page_trans_huge_mapcount() during COW faults where it strictly needed,
due to its higher runtime cost.

This also provide at practical zero cost the total_mapcount
information which is needed to know if we can still relocate the page
anon_vma to the local vma. If page_trans_huge_mapcount() returns 1 we
can reuse the page no matter if it's a pte or a pmd_trans_huge
triggering the fault, but we can only relocate the page anon_vma to
the local vma->anon_vma if we're sure it's only this "vma" mapping the
whole THP physical range.

Kirill A. Shutemov discovered the problem with moving the page
anon_vma to the local vma->anon_vma in a previous version of this
patch and another problem in the way page_move_anon_rmap() was called.

Andrew Morton discovered that CONFIG_SWAP=n wouldn't build in a
previous version, because reuse_swap_page must be a macro to call
page_trans_huge_mapcount from swap.h, so this uses a macro again
instead of an inline function. With this change at least it's a less
dangerous usage than it was before, because "page" is used only once
now, while with the previous code reuse_swap_page(page++) would have
called page_mapcount on page+1 and it would have increased page twice
instead of just once.

Dean Luick noticed an uninitialized variable that could result in a
rmap inefficiency for the non-THP case in a previous version.

Mike Marciniszyn said:

: Our RDMA tests are seeing an issue with memory locking that bisects to
: commit 61f5d698cc ("mm: re-enable THP")
:
: The test program registers two rather large MRs (512M) and RDMA
: writes data to a passive peer using the first and RDMA reads it back
: into the second MR and compares that data.  The sizes are chosen randomly
: between 0 and 1024 bytes.
:
: The test will get through a few (<= 4 iterations) and then gets a
: compare error.
:
: Tracing indicates the kernel logical addresses associated with the individual
: pages at registration ARE correct , the data in the "RDMA read response only"
: packets ARE correct.
:
: The "corruption" occurs when the packet crosse two pages that are not physically
: contiguous.   The second page reads back as zero in the program.
:
: It looks like the user VA at the point of the compare error no longer points to
: the same physical address as was registered.
:
: This patch totally resolves the issue!

Khugepaged detects own VMAs by checking vm_file and vm_ops but this way
it cannot distinguish private /dev/zero mappings from other special
mappings like /dev/hpet which has no vm_ops and popultes PTEs in mmap.

This fixes false-positive VM_BUG_ON and prevents installing THP where
they are not expected.

Kirill A. Shutemov aa88b68c3b thp: keep huge zero page pinned until tlb flush
Andrea has found[1] a race condition on MMU-gather based TLB flush vs
split_huge_page() or shrinker which frees huge zero under us (patch 1/2
and 2/2 respectively).

With new THP refcounting, we don't need patch 1/2: mmu_gather keeps the
page pinned until flush is complete and the pin prevents the page from
being split under us.

We still need patch 2/2.  This is simplified version of Andrea's patch.
We don't need fancy encoding.

Kirill A. Shutemov 5f7377147c thp: fix deadlock in split_huge_pmd()
split_huge_pmd() tries to munlock page with munlock_vma_page().  That
requires the page to locked.

If the is locked by caller, we would get a deadlock:

I don't think the deadlock is triggerable without split_huge_page()
simplifilcation patchset.

But munlock_vma_page() here is wrong: we want to munlock the page
unconditionally, no need in rmap lookup, that munlock_vma_page() does.

Let's use clear_page_mlock() instead.  It can be called under ptl.

Kirill A. Shutemov fec89c109f thp: rewrite freeze_page()/unfreeze_page() with generic rmap walkers
freeze_page() and unfreeze_page() helpers evolved in rather complex
beasts.  It would be nice to cut complexity of this code.

This patch rewrites freeze_page() using standard try_to_unmap().
unfreeze_page() is rewritten with remove_migration_ptes().

The result is much simpler.

But the new variant is somewhat slower for PTE-mapped THPs.  Current
helpers iterates over VMAs the compound page is mapped to, and then over
ptes within this VMA.  New helpers iterates over small page, then over
VMA the small page mapped to, and only then find relevant pte.

We have short cut for PMD-mapped THP: we directly install migration
entries on PMD split.

I don't think the slowdown is critical, considering how much simpler
result is and that split_huge_page() is quite rare nowadays.  It only
happens due memory pressure or migration.

Kirill A. Shutemov 2a52bcbcc6 rmap: extend try_to_unmap() to be usable by split_huge_page()
Add support for two ttu_flags:

  - TTU_SPLIT_HUGE_PMD would split PMD if it's there, before trying to
    unmap page;

  - TTU_RMAP_LOCKED indicates that caller holds relevant rmap lock;

Also, change rwc->done to !page_mapcount() instead of !page_mapped().
try_to_unmap() works on pte level, so we are really interested in the
mappedness of this small page rather than of the compound page it's a
part of.

Joonsoo Kim fe896d1878 mm: introduce page reference manipulation functions
The success of CMA allocation largely depends on the success of
migration and key factor of it is page reference count.  Until now, page
reference is manipulated by direct calling atomic functions so we cannot
follow up who and where manipulate it.  Then, it is hard to find actual
reason of CMA allocation failure.  CMA allocation should be guaranteed
to succeed so finding offending place is really important.

In this patch, call sites where page reference is manipulated are
converted to introduced wrapper function.  This is preparation step to
add tracepoint to each page reference manipulation function.  With this
facility, we can easily find reason of CMA allocation failure.  There is
no functional change in this patch.

In addition, this patch also converts reference read sites.  It will
help a second step that renames page._count to something else and
prevents later attempt to direct access to it (Suggested by Andrew).

Mel Gorman 444eb2a449 mm: thp: set THP defrag by default to madvise and add a stall-free defrag option
THP defrag is enabled by default to direct reclaim/compact but not wake
kswapd in the event of a THP allocation failure.  The problem is that
THP allocation requests potentially enter reclaim/compaction.  This
potentially incurs a severe stall that is not guaranteed to be offset by
reduced TLB misses.  While there has been considerable effort to reduce
the impact of reclaim/compaction, it is still a high cost and workloads
that should fit in memory fail to do so.  Specifically, a simple
anon/file streaming workload will enter direct reclaim on NUMA at least
even though the working set size is 80% of RAM.  It's been years and
it's time to throw in the towel.

First, this patch defines THP defrag as follows;

 madvise: A failed allocation will direct reclaim/compact if the application requests it
 never:   Neither reclaim/compact nor wake kswapd
 defer:   A failed allocation will wake kswapd/kcompactd
 always:  A failed allocation will direct reclaim/compact (historical behaviour)
          khugepaged defrag will enter direct/reclaim but not wake kswapd.

Next it sets the default defrag option to be "madvise" to only enter
direct reclaim/compaction for applications that specifically requested
it.

Lastly, it removes a check from the page allocator slowpath that is
related to __GFP_THISNODE to allow "defer" to work.  The callers that
really cares are slub/slab and they are updated accordingly.  The slab
one may be surprising because it also corrects a comment as kswapd was
never woken up by that path.

This means that a THP fault will no longer stall for most applications
by default and the ideal for most users that get THP if they are
immediately available.  There are still options for users that prefer a
stall at startup of a new application by either restoring historical
behaviour with "always" or pick a half-way point with "defer" where
kswapd does some of the work in the background and wakes kcompactd if
necessary.  THP defrag for khugepaged remains enabled and will enter
direct/reclaim but no wakeup kswapd or kcompactd.

After this patch a THP allocation failure will quickly fallback and rely
on khugepaged to recover the situation at some time in the future.  In
some cases, this will reduce THP usage but the benefit of THP is hard to
measure and not a universal win where as a stall to reclaim/compaction
is definitely measurable and can be painful.

The first test for this is using "usemem" to read a large file and write
a large anonymous mapping (to avoid the zero page) multiple times.  The
total size of the mappings is 80% of RAM and the benchmark simply
measures how long it takes to complete.  It uses multiple threads to see
if that is a factor.  On UMA, the performance is almost identical so is
not reported but on NUMA, we see this

For a single thread, the benchmark completes 43.23% faster with this
patch applied with smaller benefits as the thread increases.  Similar,
notice the large reduction in most cases in system CPU usage.  The
overall CPU time is

This patch eliminates almost all swapping and direct reclaim activity.
There is still overhead but it's from NUMA balancing which does not
identify that it's pointless trying to do anything with this workload.

I also tried the thpscale benchmark which forces a corner case where
compaction can be used heavily and measures the latency of whether base
or huge pages were used

The average time to fault pages is substantially reduced in the majority
of caseds but with the obvious caveat that fewer THPs are actually used
in this adverse workload

Note again that while this does swap as it's an aggressive workload, the
direct relcim activity and allocation stalls is substantially reduced.
There is some kswapd activity but ftrace showed that the kswapd activity
was due to normal wakeups from 4K pages being allocated.
Compaction-related stalls and activity are almost eliminated.

I also tried the stutter benchmark.  For this, I do not have figures for
NUMA but it's something that does impact UMA so I'll report what is
available

This benchmark is trying to fault an anonymous mapping while there is a
heavy IO load -- a scenario that desktop users used to complain about
frequently.  This shows a mix because the ideal case of mapping with THP
is not hit as often.  However, note that 99% of the mappings complete
13.79% faster.  The CPU usage here is particularly interesting

Allocation stalls and all direct reclaim activity is eliminated as well
as compaction-related stalls.

THP gives impressive gains in some cases but only if they are quickly
available.  We're not going to reach the point where they are completely
free so lets take the costs out of the fast paths finally and defer the
cost to kswapd, kcompactd and khugepaged where it belongs.

Kirill A. Shutemov f9719a03de thp, vmstats: count deferred split events
Count how many times we put a THP in split queue.  Currently, it happens
on partial unmap of a THP.

Rapidly growing value can indicate that an application behaves
unfriendly wrt THP: often fault in huge page and then unmap part of it.
This leads to unnecessary memory fragmentation and the application may
require tuning.

The event also can help with debugging kernel [mis-]behaviour.

After one of bugfixes to freeze_page(), we don't have freezed pages in
rmap, therefore mapcount of all subpages of freezed THP is zero.  And we
have assert for that.

Let's drop code which deal with non-zero mapcount of subpages.

Kirill A. Shutemov ff20c2e0ac mm: Some arch may want to use HPAGE_PMD related values as variables
With next generation power processor, we are having a new mmu model
[1] that require us to maintain a different linux page table format.

Inorder to support both current and future ppc64 systems with a single
kernel we need to make sure kernel can select between different page
table format at runtime. With the new MMU (radix MMU) added, we will
have two different pmd hugepage size 16MB for hash model and 2MB for
Radix model. Hence make HPAGE_PMD related values as a variable.

Actual conversion of HPAGE_PMD to a variable for ppc64 happens in a
followup patch.

Kirill A. Shutemov 2ac015e293 thp: call pmdp_invalidate() with correct virtual address
Sebastian Ott and Gerald Schaefer reported random crashes on s390.
It was bisected to my THP refcounting patchset.

The problem is that pmdp_invalidated() called with wrong virtual
address. It got offset up by HPAGE_PMD_SIZE by loop over ptes.

The solution is to introduce new variable to be used in loop and don't
touch 'haddr'.

Aneesh Kumar K.V c777e2a8b6 powerpc/mm: Fix Multi hit ERAT cause by recent THP update
With ppc64 we use the deposited pgtable_t to store the hash pte slot
information. We should not withdraw the deposited pgtable_t without
marking the pmd none. This ensure that low level hash fault handling
will skip this huge pte and we will handle them at upper levels.

Recent change to pmd splitting changed the above in order to handle the
race between pmd split and exit_mmap. The race is explained below.

Consider following race:

		CPU0				CPU1
shrink_page_list()
  add_to_swap()
    split_huge_page_to_list()
      __split_huge_pmd_locked()
        pmdp_huge_clear_flush_notify()
	// pmd_none() == true
					exit_mmap()
					  unmap_vmas()
					    zap_pmd_range()
					      // no action on pmd since pmd_none() == true
	pmd_populate()

As result the THP will not be freed. The leak is detected by check_mm():

	BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff880058d2e580 idx:1 val:512

The above required us to not mark pmd none during a pmd split.

The fix for ppc is to clear the huge pte of _PAGE_USER, so that low
level fault handling code skip this pte. At higher level we do take ptl
lock. That should serialze us against the pmd split. Once the lock is
acquired we do check the pmd again using pmd_same. That should always
return false for us and hence we should retry the access. We do the
pmd_same check in all case after taking plt with
THP (do_huge_pmd_wp_page, do_huge_pmd_numa_page and
huge_pmd_set_accessed)

Also make sure we wait for irq disable section in other cpus to finish
before flipping a huge pte entry with a regular pmd entry. Code paths
like find_linux_pte_or_hugepte depend on irq disable to get
a stable pte_t pointer. A parallel thp split need to make sure we
don't convert a pmd pte to a regular pmd entry without waiting for the
irq disable section to finish.

Matthew Wilcox 12c9d70bd5 mm: fix memory leak in copy_huge_pmd()
We allocate a pgtable but do not attach it to anything if the PMD is in
a DAX VMA, causing it to leak.

We certainly try to not free pgtables associated with the huge zero page
if the zero page is in a DAX VMA, so I think this is the right solution.
This needs to be properly audited.

Kirill A. Shutemov cb8d68ec16 thp: change deferred_split_count() to return number of THP in queue
I've got meaning of shrinker::count_objects() wrong: it should return
number of potentially freeable objects, which is not necessary correlate
with freeable memory.

Returning 256 per THP in queue is not reasonable:
shrinker::scan_objects() never called with nr_to_scan > 128 in my setup.

Let's return 1 per THP and correct scan_object accordingly.

Arnd Bergmann 629d9d1caf mm: avoid uninitialized variable in tracepoint
A newly added tracepoint in the hugepage code uses a variable in the
error handling that is not initialized at that point:

include/trace/events/huge_memory.h:81:230: error: 'isolated' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

The result is relatively harmless, as the trace data will in rare
cases contain incorrect data.

This works around the problem by adding an explicit initialization.

A dax-huge-page mapping while it uses some thp helpers is ultimately not
a transparent huge page.  The distinction is especially important in the

Ross Zwisler 01871e59af mm, dax: fix livelock, allow dax pmd mappings to become writeable
Prior to this change DAX PMD mappings that were made read-only were
never able to be made writable again.  This is because the code in
insert_pfn_pmd() that calls pmd_mkdirty() and pmd_mkwrite() would skip
these calls if the PMD already existed in the page table.

Instead, if we are doing a write always mark the PMD entry as dirty and
writeable.  Without this code we can get into a condition where we mark
the PMD as read-only, and then on a subsequent write fault we get into
an infinite loop of PMD faults where we try unsuccessfully to make the
PMD writeable.

Kirill A. Shutemov bd56086f10 thp: fix split_huge_page() after mremap() of THP
Sasha Levin has reported KASAN out-of-bounds bug[1].  It points to "if
(!is_swap_pte(pte[i]))" in unfreeze_page_vma() as a problematic access.

The cause is that split_huge_page() doesn't handle THP correctly if it's
not allingned to PMD boundary.  It can happen after mremap().

Test-case (not always triggers the bug):

	#define _GNU_SOURCE
	#include <stdio.h>
	#include <stdlib.h>
	#include <sys/mman.h>

	#define MB (1024UL*1024)
	#define SIZE (2*MB)
	#define BASE ((void *)0x400000000000)

	int main()
	{
		char *p;

		p = mmap(BASE, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
				MAP_FIXED | MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_POPULATE,
				-1, 0);
		if (p == MAP_FAILED)
			perror("mmap"), exit(1);
		p = mremap(BASE, SIZE, SIZE, MREMAP_FIXED | MREMAP_MAYMOVE,
				BASE + SIZE + 8192);
		if (p == MAP_FAILED)
			perror("mremap"), exit(1);
		system("echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/split_huge_pages");
		return 0;
	}

The patch fixes freeze and unfreeze paths to handle page table boundary
crossing.

It also makes mapcount vs count check in split_huge_page_to_list()
stricter:
 - after freeze we don't expect any subpage mapped as we remove them
   from rmap when setting up migration entries;
 - count must be 1, meaning only caller has reference to the page;

Minchan Kim b8d3c4c300 mm/huge_memory.c: don't split THP page when MADV_FREE syscall is called
We don't need to split THP page when MADV_FREE syscall is called if
[start, len] is aligned with THP size.  The split could be done when VM
decide to free it in reclaim path if memory pressure is heavy.  With
that, we could avoid unnecessary THP split.

For the feature, this patch changes pte dirtness marking logic of THP.
Now, it marks every ptes of pages dirty unconditionally in splitting,
which makes MADV_FREE void.  So, instead, this patch propagates pmd
dirtiness to all pages via PG_dirty and restores pte dirtiness from
PG_dirty.  With this, if pmd is clean(ie, MADV_FREEed) when split
happens(e,g, shrink_page_list), all of pages are clean too so we could
discard them.

Let's drain the lru cache before checking page's count vs.  mapcount.
The change makes mlocked page split on first attempt, if it was not
pinned by somebody else.

Kirill A. Shutemov e90309c9f7 thp: allow mlocked THP again
Before THP refcounting rework, THP was not allowed to cross VMA
boundary.  So, if we have THP and we split it, PG_mlocked can be safely
transferred to small pages.

With new THP refcounting and naive approach to mlocking we can end up
with this scenario:
 1. we have a mlocked THP, which belong to one VM_LOCKED VMA.
 2. the process does munlock() on the *part* of the THP:
      - the VMA is split into two, one of them VM_LOCKED;
      - huge PMD split into PTE table;
      - THP is still mlocked;
 3. split_huge_page():
      - it transfers PG_mlocked to *all* small pages regrardless if it
	blong to any VM_LOCKED VMA.

We probably could munlock() all small pages on split_huge_page(), but I
think we have accounting issue already on step two.

Instead of forbidding mlocked pages altogether, we just avoid mlocking
PTE-mapped THPs and munlock THPs on split_huge_pmd().

This means PTE-mapped THPs will be on normal lru lists and will be split
under memory pressure by vmscan.  After the split vmscan will detect
unevictable small pages and mlock them.

With this approach we shouldn't hit situation like described above.

Kirill A. Shutemov 9a982250f7 thp: introduce deferred_split_huge_page()
Currently we don't split huge page on partial unmap.  It's not an ideal
situation.  It can lead to memory overhead.

Furtunately, we can detect partial unmap on page_remove_rmap().  But we
cannot call split_huge_page() from there due to locking context.

It's also counterproductive to do directly from munmap() codepath: in
many cases we will hit this from exit(2) and splitting the huge page
just to free it up in small pages is not what we really want.

The patch introduce deferred_split_huge_page() which put the huge page
into queue for splitting.  The splitting itself will happen when we get
memory pressure via shrinker interface.  The page will be dropped from
list on freeing through compound page destructor.

Kirill A. Shutemov e9b61f1985 thp: reintroduce split_huge_page()
This patch adds implementation of split_huge_page() for new
refcountings.

Unlike previous implementation, new split_huge_page() can fail if
somebody holds GUP pin on the page.  It also means that pin on page
would prevent it from bening split under you.  It makes situation in
many places much cleaner.

The basic scheme of split_huge_page():

  - Check that sum of mapcounts of all subpage is equal to page_count()
    plus one (caller pin). Foll off with -EBUSY. This way we can avoid
    useless PMD-splits.

  - Freeze the page counters by splitting all PMD and setup migration
    PTEs.

  - Re-check sum of mapcounts against page_count(). Page's counts are
    stable now. -EBUSY if page is pinned.

  - Split compound page.

  - Unfreeze the page by removing migration entries.

Kirill A. Shutemov 53f9263bab mm: rework mapcount accounting to enable 4k mapping of THPs
We're going to allow mapping of individual 4k pages of THP compound.  It
means we need to track mapcount on per small page basis.

Straight-forward approach is to use ->_mapcount in all subpages to track
how many time this subpage is mapped with PMDs or PTEs combined.  But
this is rather expensive: mapping or unmapping of a THP page with PMD
would require HPAGE_PMD_NR atomic operations instead of single we have
now.

The idea is to store separately how many times the page was mapped as
whole -- compound_mapcount.  This frees up ->_mapcount in subpages to
track PTE mapcount.

We use the same approach as with compound page destructor and compound
order to store compound_mapcount: use space in first tail page,
->mapping this time.

Any time we map/unmap whole compound page (THP or hugetlb) -- we
increment/decrement compound_mapcount.  When we map part of compound
page with PTE we operate on ->_mapcount of the subpage.

page_mapcount() counts both: PTE and PMD mappings of the page.

Basically, we have mapcount for a subpage spread over two counters.  It
makes tricky to detect when last mapcount for a page goes away.

We introduced PageDoubleMap() for this.  When we split THP PMD for the
first time and there's other PMD mapping left we offset up ->_mapcount
in all subpages by one and set PG_double_map on the compound page.
These additional references go away with last compound_mapcount.

This approach provides a way to detect when last mapcount goes away on
per small page basis without introducing new overhead for most common
cases.

Kirill A. Shutemov ddc58f27f9 mm: drop tail page refcounting
Tail page refcounting is utterly complicated and painful to support.

It uses ->_mapcount on tail pages to store how many times this page is
pinned.  get_page() bumps ->_mapcount on tail page in addition to
->_count on head.  This information is required by split_huge_page() to
be able to distribute pins from head of compound page to tails during
the split.

We will need ->_mapcount to account PTE mappings of subpages of the
compound page.  We eliminate need in current meaning of ->_mapcount in
tail pages by forbidding split entirely if the page is pinned.

The only user of tail page refcounting is THP which is marked BROKEN for
now.

Let's drop all this mess.  It makes get_page() and put_page() much
simpler.

Kirill A. Shutemov 7479df6da9 thp, mlock: do not allow huge pages in mlocked area
With new refcounting THP can belong to several VMAs.  This makes tricky
to track THP pages, when they partially mlocked.  It can lead to leaking
mlocked pages to non-VM_LOCKED vmas and other problems.

With this patch we will split all pages on mlock and avoid
fault-in/collapse new THP in VM_LOCKED vmas.

I've tried alternative approach: do not mark THP pages mlocked and keep
them on normal LRUs.  This way vmscan could try to split huge pages on
memory pressure and free up subpages which doesn't belong to VM_LOCKED
vmas.  But this is user-visible change: we screw up Mlocked accouting
reported in meminfo, so I had to leave this approach aside.

We can bring something better later, but this should be good enough for
now.

Kirill A. Shutemov 1f25fe20a7 mm, thp: adjust conditions when we can reuse the page on WP fault
With new refcounting we will be able map the same compound page with
PTEs and PMDs.  It requires adjustment to conditions when we can reuse
the page on write-protection fault.

For PTE fault we can't reuse the page if it's part of huge page.

For PMD we can only reuse the page if nobody else maps the huge page or
it's part.  We can do it by checking page_mapcount() on each sub-page,
but it's expensive.

The cheaper way is to check page_count() to be equal 1: every mapcount
takes page reference, so this way we can guarantee, that the PMD is the
only mapping.

This approach can give false negative if somebody pinned the page, but
that doesn't affect correctness.

Kirill A. Shutemov f627c2f537 memcg: adjust to support new THP refcounting
As with rmap, with new refcounting we cannot rely on PageTransHuge() to
check if we need to charge size of huge page form the cgroup.  We need
to get information from caller to know whether it was mapped with PMD or
PTE.

We do uncharge when last reference on the page gone.  At that point if
we see PageTransHuge() it means we need to unchange whole huge page.

The tricky part is partial unmap -- when we try to unmap part of huge
page.  We don't do a special handing of this situation, meaning we don't
uncharge the part of huge page unless last user is gone or
split_huge_page() is triggered.  In case of cgroup memory pressure
happens the partial unmapped page will be split through shrinker.  This
should be good enough.

We don't define meaning of page->mapping for tail pages.  Currently it's
always NULL, which can be inconsistent with head page and potentially
lead to problems.

page_rmapping(), page_mapping() and page_anon_vma() are changed to look
on head page.

The only illegal use I've caught so far is __GPF_COMP pages from sound
subsystem, mapped with PTEs.  do_shared_fault() is changed to use
page_rmapping() instead of direct access to fault_page->mapping.

Ebru Akagunduz 7d2eba0557 mm: add tracepoint for scanning pages
This patch series makes swapin readahead up to a certain number to gain
more thp performance and adds tracepoint for khugepaged_scan_pmd,
collapse_huge_page, __collapse_huge_page_isolate.

This patch series was written to deal with programs that access most,
but not all, of their memory after they get swapped out.  Currently
these programs do not get their memory collapsed into THPs after the
system swapped their memory out, while they would get THPs before
swapping happened.

This patch series was tested with a test program, it allocates 400MB of
memory, writes to it, and then sleeps.  I force the system to swap out
all.  Afterwards, the test program touches the area by writing and
leaves a piece of it without writing.  This shows how much swap in
readahead made by the patch.

Test results:

Jason J. Herne 1a76361568 mm: loosen MADV_NOHUGEPAGE to enable Qemu postcopy on s390
MADV_NOHUGEPAGE processing is too restrictive.  kvm already disables
hugepage but hugepage_madvise() takes the error path when we ask to turn
on the MADV_NOHUGEPAGE bit and the bit is already on.  This causes Qemu's
new postcopy migration feature to fail on s390 because its first action is
to madvise the guest address space as NOHUGEPAGE.  This patch modifies the
code so that the operation succeeds without error now.

For consistency reasons do the same for MADV_HUGEPAGE.

Kirill A. Shutemov 1d798ca3f1 mm: make compound_head() robust
Hugh has pointed that compound_head() call can be unsafe in some
context. There's one example:

	CPU0					CPU1

isolate_migratepages_block()
  page_count()
    compound_head()
      !!PageTail() == true
					put_page()
					  tail->first_page = NULL
      head = tail->first_page
					alloc_pages(__GFP_COMP)
					   prep_compound_page()
					     tail->first_page = head
					     __SetPageTail(p);
      !!PageTail() == true
    <head == NULL dereferencing>

The race is pure theoretical. I don't it's possible to trigger it in
practice. But who knows.

We can fix the race by changing how encode PageTail() and compound_head()
within struct page to be able to update them in one shot.

The patch introduces page->compound_head into third double word block in
front of compound_dtor and compound_order. Bit 0 encodes PageTail() and
the rest bits are pointer to head page if bit zero is set.

The patch moves page->pmd_huge_pte out of word, just in case if an
architecture defines pgtable_t into something what can have the bit 0
set.

hugetlb_cgroup uses page->lru.next in the second tail page to store
pointer struct hugetlb_cgroup. The patch switch it to use page->private
in the second tail page instead. The space is free since ->first_page is
removed from the union.

The patch also opens possibility to remove HUGETLB_CGROUP_MIN_ORDER
limitation, since there's now space in first tail page to store struct
hugetlb_cgroup pointer. But that's out of scope of the patch.

That means page->compound_head shares storage space with:

 - page->lru.next;
 - page->next;
 - page->rcu_head.next;

That's too long list to be absolutely sure, but looks like nobody uses
bit 0 of the word.

page->rcu_head.next guaranteed[1] to have bit 0 clean as long as we use
call_rcu(), call_rcu_bh(), call_rcu_sched(), or call_srcu(). But future
call_rcu_lazy() is not allowed as it makes use of the bit and we can
get false positive PageTail().

Mel Gorman 974a786e63 mm, page_alloc: remove MIGRATE_RESERVE
MIGRATE_RESERVE preserves an old property of the buddy allocator that
existed prior to fragmentation avoidance -- min_free_kbytes worth of pages
tended to remain contiguous until the only alternative was to fail the
allocation.  At the time it was discovered that high-order atomic
allocations relied on this property so MIGRATE_RESERVE was introduced.  A
later patch will introduce an alternative MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC so this patch
deletes MIGRATE_RESERVE and supporting code so it'll be easier to review.
Note that this patch in isolation may look like a false regression if
someone was bisecting high-order atomic allocation failures.

Mel Gorman 71baba4b92 mm, page_alloc: rename __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIM
__GFP_WAIT was used to signal that the caller was in atomic context and
could not sleep.  Now it is possible to distinguish between true atomic
context and callers that are not willing to sleep.  The latter should
clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM so kswapd will still wake.  As clearing
__GFP_WAIT behaves differently, there is a risk that people will clear the
wrong flags.  This patch renames __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIM to clearly
indicate what it does -- setting it allows all reclaim activity, clearing
them prevents it.

Eric B Munson de60f5f10c mm: introduce VM_LOCKONFAULT
The cost of faulting in all memory to be locked can be very high when
working with large mappings.  If only portions of the mapping will be used
this can incur a high penalty for locking.

For the example of a large file, this is the usage pattern for a large
statical language model (probably applies to other statical or graphical
models as well).  For the security example, any application transacting in
data that cannot be swapped out (credit card data, medical records, etc).

This patch introduces the ability to request that pages are not
pre-faulted, but are placed on the unevictable LRU when they are finally
faulted in.  The VM_LOCKONFAULT flag will be used together with VM_LOCKED
and has no effect when set without VM_LOCKED.  Setting the VM_LOCKONFAULT
flag for a VMA will cause pages faulted into that VMA to be added to the
unevictable LRU when they are faulted or if they are already present, but
will not cause any missing pages to be faulted in.

Exposing this new lock state means that we cannot overload the meaning of
the FOLL_POPULATE flag any longer.  Prior to this patch it was used to
mean that the VMA for a fault was locked.  This means we need the new
FOLL_MLOCK flag to communicate the locked state of a VMA.  FOLL_POPULATE
will now only control if the VMA should be populated and in the case of
VM_LOCKONFAULT, it will not be set.

Use is_zero_pfn() on pteval only after pte_present() check on pteval

Otherwise when working on a swap or migration entry and if pte_pfn's
result is equal to zero_pfn by chance, we lose user's data in
__collapse_huge_page_copy().  So if you're unlucky, the application
segfaults and finally you could see below message on exit:

Vineet Gupta 12ebc1581a mm,thp: introduce flush_pmd_tlb_range
ARCHes with special requirements for evicting THP backing TLB entries
can implement this.

Otherwise also, it can help optimize TLB flush in THP regime.
stock flush_tlb_range() typically has optimization to nuke the entire
TLB if flush span is greater than a certain threshhold, which will
likely be true for a single huge page. Thus a single thp flush will
invalidate the entrire TLB which is not desirable.

Vladimir Davydov 33c3fc71c8 mm: introduce idle page tracking
Knowing the portion of memory that is not used by a certain application or
memory cgroup (idle memory) can be useful for partitioning the system
efficiently, e.g.  by setting memory cgroup limits appropriately.
Currently, the only means to estimate the amount of idle memory provided
by the kernel is /proc/PID/{clear_refs,smaps}: the user can clear the
access bit for all pages mapped to a particular process by writing 1 to
clear_refs, wait for some time, and then count smaps:Referenced.  However,
this method has two serious shortcomings:

 - it does not count unmapped file pages
 - it affects the reclaimer logic

To overcome these drawbacks, this patch introduces two new page flags,
Idle and Young, and a new sysfs file, /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap.
A page's Idle flag can only be set from userspace by setting bit in
/sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap at the offset corresponding to the page,
and it is cleared whenever the page is accessed either through page tables
(it is cleared in page_referenced() in this case) or using the read(2)
system call (mark_page_accessed()). Thus by setting the Idle flag for
pages of a particular workload, which can be found e.g.  by reading
/proc/PID/pagemap, waiting for some time to let the workload access its
working set, and then reading the bitmap file, one can estimate the amount
of pages that are not used by the workload.

The Young page flag is used to avoid interference with the memory
reclaimer.  A page's Young flag is set whenever the Access bit of a page
table entry pointing to the page is cleared by writing to the bitmap file.
If page_referenced() is called on a Young page, it will add 1 to its
return value, therefore concealing the fact that the Access bit was
cleared.

Note, since there is no room for extra page flags on 32 bit, this feature
uses extended page flags when compiled on 32 bit.

Petr Mladek bde43c6c9f mm/khugepaged: allow interruption of allocation sleep again
Commit 1dfb059b94 ("thp: reduce khugepaged freezing latency") fixed
khugepaged to do not block a system suspend.  But the result is that it
could not get interrupted before the given timeout because the condition
for the wait event is "false".

This patch puts back the original approach but it uses
freezable_schedule_timeout_interruptible() instead of
schedule_timeout_interruptible().  It does the right thing.  I am pretty
sure that the freezable variant was not used in the original fix only
because it was not available at that time.

The regression has been there for ages.  It was not critical.  It just
did the allocation throttling a little bit more aggressively.

I found this problem when converting the kthread to kthread worker API
and trying to understand the code.

This bug is thought to have minimal userspace-visible impact.  Somebody
could set a high alloc_sleep value by mistake, and then try to fix it
back, but khugepaged would keep sleeping until the high value expires.

Vlastimil Babka 96db800f5d mm: rename alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node()
alloc_pages_exact_node() was introduced in commit 6484eb3e2a ("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 5265047ac3 ("mm, thp: really limit transparent hugepage
allocation to local node") and b360edb43f ("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.

Kirill A. Shutemov e1b9996b85 thp: vma_adjust_trans_huge(): adjust file-backed VMA too
This series of patches adds support for using PMD page table entries to
map DAX files.  We expect NV-DIMMs to start showing up that are many
gigabytes in size and the memory consumption of 4kB PTEs will be
astronomical.

The patch series leverages much of the Transparant Huge Pages
infrastructure, going so far as to borrow one of Kirill's patches from
his THP page cache series.

This patch (of 10):

Since we're going to have huge pages in page cache, we need to call adjust
file-backed VMA, which potentially can contain huge pages.

For now we call it for all VMAs.

Probably later we will need to introduce a flag to indicate that the VMA
has huge pages.

Andrea Arcangeli 230c92a879 userfaultfd: propagate the full address in THP faults
The THP faults were not propagating the original fault address.  The
latest version of the API with uffd.arg.pagefault.address is supposed to
propagate the full address through THP faults.

This was not a kernel crashing bug and it wouldn't risk to corrupt user
memory, but it would cause a SIGBUS failure because the wrong page was
being copied.

For various reasons this wasn't easily reproducible in the qemu workload,
but the strestest exposed the problem immediately.

Andrea Arcangeli c1294d05de userfaultfd: prevent khugepaged to merge if userfaultfd is armed
If userfaultfd is armed on a certain vma we can't "fill" the holes with
zeroes or we'll break the userland on demand paging.  The holes if the
userfault is armed, are really missing information (not zeroes) that the
userland has to load from network or elsewhere.

The same issue happens for wrprotected ptes that we can't just convert
into a single writable pmd_trans_huge.

We could however in theory still merge across zeropages if only
VM_UFFD_MISSING is set (so if VM_UFFD_WP is not set)...  that could be
slightly improved but it'd be much more complex code for a tiny corner
case.

handle_userfault() if userfaultfd_missing() is true (so if the

handle_userfault() then takes care of blocking the page fault and
delivering it to userland.

The fault flags must also be passed as parameter so the "read|write"
kind of fault can be passed to userland.

Naoya Horiguchi f4c18e6f7b mm: check __PG_HWPOISON separately from PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_*
The race condition addressed in commit add05cecef ("mm: soft-offline:
don't free target page in successful page migration") was not closed
completely, because that can happen not only for soft-offline, but also
for hard-offline.  Consider that a slab page is about to be freed into
buddy pool, and then an uncorrected memory error hits the page just
after entering __free_one_page(), then VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page->flags &
PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_PREP) is triggered, despite the fact that it's not
necessary because the data on the affected page is not consumed.

To solve it, this patch drops __PG_HWPOISON from page flag checks at
allocation/free time.  I think it's justified because __PG_HWPOISON
flags is defined to prevent the page from being reused, and setting it
outside the page's alloc-free cycle is a designed behavior (not a bug.)

For recent months, I was annoyed about BUG_ON when soft-offlined page
remains on lru cache list for a while, which is avoided by calling
put_page() instead of putback_lru_page() in page migration's success
path.  This means that this patch reverts a major change from commit
add05cecef about the new refcounting rule of soft-offlined pages, so
"reuse window" revives.  This will be closed by a subsequent patch.

Aneesh Kumar K.V 15a25b2ead mm/thp: split out pmd collapse flush into separate functions
Architectures like ppc64 [1] need to do special things while clearing pmd
before a collapse.  For them this operation is largely different from a
normal hugepage pte clear.  Hence add a separate function to clear pmd
before collapse.  After this patch pmdp_* functions operate only on
hugepage pte, and not on regular pmd_t values pointing to page table.

[1] ppc64 needs to invalidate all the normal page pte mappings we already
have inserted in the hardware hash page table.  But before doing that we
need to make sure there are no parallel hash page table insert going on.
So we need to do a kick_all_cpus_sync() before flushing the older hash
table entries.  By moving this to a separate function we capture these
details and mention how it is different from a hugepage pte clear.

This patch is a cleanup and only does code movement for clarity.  There
should not be any change in functionality.

Jiri Kosina cd09241121 thp: cleanup how khugepaged enters freezer
khugepaged_do_scan() checks in every iteration whether freezing(current)
is true, and in such case breaks out of the loop, which causes
try_to_freeze() to be called immediately afterwards in

If nothing else, this causes unnecessary freezing(current) test, and also
makes the way khugepaged enters freezer a bit less obvious than necessary.

Let's just try to freeze directly, instead of splitting it into two
(directly adjacent) phases.

Michal Hocko 3b3636924d mm, memcg: sync allocation and memcg charge gfp flags for THP
memcg currently uses hardcoded GFP_TRANSHUGE gfp flags for all THP
charges.  THP allocations, however, might be using different flags
depending on /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/{,khugepaged/}defrag and
the current allocation context.

The primary difference is that defrag configured to "madvise" value will
clear __GFP_WAIT flag from the core gfp mask to make the allocation
lighter for all mappings which are not backed by VM_HUGEPAGE vmas.  If
memcg charge path ignores this fact we will get light allocation but the a
potential memcg reclaim would kill the whole point of the configuration.

Fix the mismatch by providing the same gfp mask used for the allocation to
the charge functions.  This is quite easy for all paths except for
hugepaged kernel thread with !CONFIG_NUMA which is doing a pre-allocation
long before the allocated page is used in collapse_huge_page via
khugepaged_alloc_page.  To prevent from cluttering the whole code path
from khugepaged_do_scan we simply return the current flags as per
khugepaged_defrag() value which might have changed since the
preallocation.  If somebody changed the value of the knob we would charge
differently but this shouldn't happen often and it is definitely not
critical because it would only lead to a reduced success rate of one-off
THP promotion.

David Rientjes 5265047ac3 mm, thp: really limit transparent hugepage allocation to local node
Commit 077fcf116c ("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 9f1b868a13 ("mm: thp: khugepaged: add policy for finding target
node") suffers from a similar problem for khugepaged, which is also fixed.

Ebru Akagunduz ca0984caa8 mm: incorporate zero pages into transparent huge pages
This patch improves THP collapse rates, by allowing zero pages.

Currently THP can collapse 4kB pages into a THP when there are up to
khugepaged_max_ptes_none pte_none ptes in a 2MB range.  This patch counts
pte none and mapped zero pages with the same variable.

The patch was tested with a program that allocates 800MB of
memory, and performs interleaved reads and writes, in a pattern
that causes some 2MB areas to first see read accesses, resulting
in the zero pfn being mapped there.

To simulate memory fragmentation at allocation time, I modified
do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page to return VM_FAULT_FALLBACK for read faults.

Without the patch, only %50 of the program was collapsed into THP and the
percentage did not increase over time.

With this patch after 10 minutes of waiting khugepaged had collapsed %99
of the program's memory.

Mel Gorman b7b04004ec mm: numa: mark huge PTEs young when clearing NUMA hinting faults
Base PTEs are marked young when the NUMA hinting information is cleared
but the same does not happen for huge pages which this patch addresses.

Note that migrated pages are not marked young as the base page migration
code does not assume that migrated pages have been referenced.  This
could be addressed but beyond the scope of this series which is aimed at
Dave Chinners shrink workload that is unlikely to be affected by this
issue.

Mel Gorman 074c238177 mm: numa: slow PTE scan rate if migration failures occur
Dave Chinner reported the following on https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/1/226

  Across the board the 4.0-rc1 numbers are much slower, and the degradation
  is far worse when using the large memory footprint configs. Perf points
  straight at the cause - this is from 4.0-rc1 on the "-o bhash=101073" config:

This is showing excessive migration activity even though excessive
migrations are meant to get throttled.  Normally, the scan rate is tuned
on a per-task basis depending on the locality of faults.  However, if
migrations fail for any reason then the PTE scanner may scan faster if
the faults continue to be remote.  This means there is higher system CPU
overhead and fault trapping at exactly the time we know that migrations
cannot happen.  This patch tracks when migration failures occur and
slows the PTE scanner.

Mel Gorman b191f9b106 mm: numa: preserve PTE write permissions across a NUMA hinting fault
Protecting a PTE to trap a NUMA hinting fault clears the writable bit
and further faults are needed after trapping a NUMA hinting fault to set
the writable bit again.  This patch preserves the writable bit when
trapping NUMA hinting faults.  The impact is obvious from the number of
minor faults trapped during the basis balancing benchmark and the system
CPU usage;

There is a similar drop in system CPU usage using Dave Chinner's xfsrepair
workload

The patch looks hacky but the alternatives looked worse.  The tidest was
to rewalk the page tables after a hinting fault but it was more complex
than this approach and the performance was worse.  It's not generally
safe to just mark the page writable during the fault if it's a write
fault as it may have been read-only for COW so that approach was
discarded.

Mel Gorman bea66fbd11 mm: numa: group related processes based on VMA flags instead of page table flags
These are three follow-on patches based on the xfsrepair workload Dave
Chinner reported was problematic in 4.0-rc1 due to changes in page table
management -- https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/1/226.

Much of the problem was reduced by commit 53da3bc2ba ("mm: fix up numa
read-only thread grouping logic") and commit ba68bc0115 ("mm: thp:
Return the correct value for change_huge_pmd").  It was known that the
performance in 3.19 was still better even if is far less safe.  This
series aims to restore the performance without compromising on safety.

For the test of this mail, I'm comparing 3.19 against 4.0-rc4 and the
three patches applied on top

Overall the system CPU usage is comparable and the test is naturally a
bit variable.  The slowing of the scanner hurts numa01 but on this
machine it is an adverse workload and patches that dramatically help it
often hurt absolutely everything else.

Due to patch 2, the fault activity is interesting

Here the impact of slowing the PTE scanner on migratrion failures is
obvious as "NUMA base PTE updates" and "NUMA huge PMD updates" are
massively reduced even though the headline performance is very similar.

As xfsrepair was the reported workload here is the impact of the series
on it.

The really relevant lines as syst-xfsrepair which is the system CPU
usage when running xfsrepair.  Note that on my machine the overhead was
45% higher on 4.0-rc4 which may be part of what Dave is seeing.  Once we
preserve the write bit across faults, it's only 2.51% higher on average.
With the full series applied, system CPU usage is 24.6% lower on
average.

Again, the impact of preserving the write bit on minor faults is obvious
and the impact of slowing scanning after migration failures is obvious
on the PTE updates.  Note also that the number of pages migrated is much
reduced even though the headline performance is comparable.

FWIW, I also checked SPECjbb in different configurations but it's
similar observations -- minor faults lower, PTE update activity lower
and performance is roughly comparable against 3.19.

This patch (of 3):

Threads that share writable data within pages are grouped together as
related tasks.  This decision is based on whether the PTE is marked
dirty which is subject to timing races between the PTE scanner update
and when the application writes the page.  If the page is file-backed,
then background flushes and sync also affect placement.  This is
unpredictable behaviour which is impossible to reason about so this
patch makes grouping decisions based on the VMA flags.

Linus Torvalds 53da3bc2ba mm: fix up numa read-only thread grouping logic
Dave Chinner reported that commit 4d94246699 ("mm: convert
p[te|md]_mknonnuma and remaining page table manipulations") slowed down
his xfsrepair test enormously.  In particular, it was using more system
time due to extra TLB flushing.

The ultimate reason turns out to be how the change to use the regular
page table accessor functions broke the NUMA grouping logic.  The old
special mknuma/mknonnuma code accessed the page table present bit and
the magic NUMA bit directly, while the new code just changes the page
protections using PROT_NONE and the regular vma protections.

That sounds equivalent, and from a fault standpoint it really is, but a
subtle side effect is that the *other* protection bits of the page table
entries also change.  And the code to decide how to group the NUMA
entries together used the writable bit to decide whether a particular
page was likely to be shared read-only or not.

And with the change to make the NUMA handling use the regular permission
setting functions, that writable bit was basically always cleared for
private mappings due to COW.  So even if the page actually ends up being
written to in the end, the NUMA balancing would act as if it was always
shared RO.

This code is a heuristic anyway, so the fix - at least for now - is to
instead check whether the page is dirty rather than writable.  The bit
doesn't change with protection changes.

NOTE! This also adds a FIXME comment to revisit this issue,

Not only should we probably re-visit the whole "is this a shared
read-only page" heuristic (we might want to take the vma permissions
into account and base this more on those than the per-page ones, and
also look at whether the particular access that triggers it is a write
or not), but the whole COW issue shows that we should think about the
NUMA fault handling some more.

For example, maybe we should do the early-COW thing that a regular fault
does.  Or maybe we should accept that while using the same bits as
PROTNONE was a good thing (and got rid of the specual NUMA bit), we
might still want to just preseve the other protection bits across NUMA
faulting.

Those are bigger questions, left for later.  This just fixes up the
heuristic so that it at least approximates working again.  More analysis
and work needed.

pte_protnone_numa is only safe to use after VMA checks for PROT_NONE are
complete.  Treating a real PROT_NONE PTE as a NUMA hinting fault is going
to result in strangeness so add a check for it.  BUG_ON looks like
overkill but if this is hit then it's a serious bug that could result in
corruption so do not even try recovering.  It would have been more
comprehensive to check VMA flags in pte_protnone_numa but it would have
made the API ugly just for a debugging check.

Mel Gorman 5d83306213 mm: numa: do not dereference pmd outside of the lock during NUMA hinting fault
Automatic NUMA balancing depends on being able to protect PTEs to trap a
fault and gather reference locality information.  Very broadly speaking
it would mark PTEs as not present and use another bit to distinguish
between NUMA hinting faults and other types of faults.  It was
universally loved by everybody and caused no problems whatsoever.  That
last sentence might be a lie.

This series is very heavily based on patches from Linus and Aneesh to
replace the existing PTE/PMD NUMA helper functions with normal change
protections.  I did alter and add parts of it but I consider them
relatively minor contributions.  At their suggestion, acked-bys are in
there but I've no problem converting them to Signed-off-by if requested.

AFAIK, this has received no testing on ppc64 and I'm depending on Aneesh
for that.  I tested trinity under kvm-tool and passed and ran a few
other basic tests.  At the time of writing, only the short-lived tests
have completed but testing of V2 indicated that long-term testing had no
surprises.  In most cases I'm leaving out detail as it's not that
interesting.

specjbb single JVM: There was negligible performance difference in the
	benchmark itself for short runs. However, system activity is
	higher and interrupts are much higher over time -- possibly TLB
	flushes. Migrations are also higher. Overall, this is more overhead
	but considering the problems faced with the old approach I think
	we just have to suck it up and find another way of reducing the
	overhead.

specjbb multi JVM: Negligible performance difference to the actual benchmark
	but like the single JVM case, the system overhead is noticeably
	higher.  Again, interrupts are a major factor.

autonumabench: This was all over the place and about all that can be
	reasonably concluded is that it's different but not necessarily
	better or worse.

The NUMA pages migrated look terrible but when I looked at a graph of the
activity over time I see that the massive spike in migration activity was
during NUMA01.  This correlates with high system CPU usage and could be
simply down to bad luck but any modifications that affect that workload
would be related to scan rates and migrations, not the protection
mechanism.  For all other workloads, migration activity was comparable.

Overall, headline performance figures are comparable but the overhead is
higher, mostly in interrupts.  To some extent, higher overhead from this
approach was anticipated but not to this degree.  It's going to be
necessary to reduce this again with a separate series in the future.  It's
still worth going ahead with this series though as it's likely to avoid
constant headaches with Xen and is probably easier to maintain.

This patch (of 10):

A transhuge NUMA hinting fault may find the page is migrating and should
wait until migration completes.  The check is race-prone because the pmd
is deferenced outside of the page lock and while the race is tiny, it'll
be larger if the PMD is cleared while marking PMDs for hinting fault.
This patch closes the race.

Ebru Akagunduz 10359213d0 mm: incorporate read-only pages into transparent huge pages
This patch aims to improve THP collapse rates, by allowing THP collapse in
the presence of read-only ptes, like those left in place by do_swap_page
after a read fault.

Currently THP can collapse 4kB pages into a THP when there are up to
khugepaged_max_ptes_none pte_none ptes in a 2MB range.  This patch applies
the same limit for read-only ptes.

The patch was tested with a test program that allocates 800MB of memory,
writes to it, and then sleeps.  I force the system to swap out all but
190MB of the program by touching other memory.  Afterwards, the test
program does a mix of reads and writes to its memory, and the memory gets
swapped back in.

Without the patch, only the memory that did not get swapped out remained
in THPs, which corresponds to 24% of the memory of the program.  The
percentage did not increase over time.

With this patch, after 5 minutes of waiting khugepaged had collapsed 50%
of the program's memory back into THPs.

Test results:

Aneesh Kumar K.V 077fcf116c mm/thp: allocate transparent hugepages on local node
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.

David Rientjes 6d50e60cd2 mm, thp: fix collapsing of hugepages on madvise
If an anonymous mapping is not allowed to fault thp memory and then
madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) is used after fault, khugepaged will never
collapse this memory into thp memory.

This occurs because the madvise(2) handler for thp, hugepage_madvise(),
clears VM_NOHUGEPAGE on the stack and it isn't stored in vma->vm_flags
until the final action of madvise_behavior().  This causes the
khugepaged_enter_vma_merge() to be a no-op in hugepage_madvise() when
the vma had previously had VM_NOHUGEPAGE set.

Fix this by passing the correct vma flags to the khugepaged mm slot
handler.  There's no chance khugepaged can run on this vma until after
madvise_behavior() returns since we hold mm->mmap_sem.

It would be possible to clear VM_NOHUGEPAGE directly from vma->vm_flags
in hugepage_advise(), but I didn't want to introduce special case
behavior into madvise_behavior().  I think it's best to just let it
always set vma->vm_flags itself.

Yu Zhao 5ddacbe92b mm: free compound page with correct order
Compound page should be freed by put_page() or free_pages() with correct
order.  Not doing so will cause tail pages leaked.

The compound order can be obtained by compound_order() or use
HPAGE_PMD_ORDER in our case.  Some people would argue the latter is
faster but I prefer the former which is more general.

This bug was observed not just on our servers (the worst case we saw is
11G leaked on a 48G machine) but also on our workstations running Ubuntu
based distro.

  $ cat /proc/vmstat  | grep thp_zero_page_alloc
  thp_zero_page_alloc 55
  thp_zero_page_alloc_failed 0

This means there is (thp_zero_page_alloc - 1) * (2M - 4K) memory leaked.

Vlastimil Babka 8b1645685a mm, THP: don't hold mmap_sem in khugepaged when allocating THP
When allocating huge page for collapsing, khugepaged currently holds
mmap_sem for reading on the mm where collapsing occurs.  Afterwards the
read lock is dropped before write lock is taken on the same mmap_sem.

Holding mmap_sem during whole huge page allocation is therefore useless,
the vma needs to be rechecked after taking the write lock anyway.
Furthemore, huge page allocation might involve a rather long sync
compaction, and thus block any mmap_sem writers and i.e.  affect workloads
that perform frequent m(un)map or mprotect oterations.

This patch simply releases the read lock before allocating a huge page.
It also deletes an outdated comment that assumed vma must be stable, as it
was using alloc_hugepage_vma().  This is no longer true since commit
9f1b868a13 ("mm: thp: khugepaged: add policy for finding target node").

Mel Gorman abc40bd2ee mm: numa: Do not mark PTEs pte_numa when splitting huge pages
This patch reverts 1ba6e0b50b ("mm: numa: split_huge_page: transfer the
NUMA type from the pmd to the pte"). If a huge page is being split due
a protection change and the tail will be in a PROT_NONE vma then NUMA
hinting PTEs are temporarily created in the protected VMA.

 VM_RW|VM_PROTNONE
|-----------------|
      ^
      split here

In the specific case above, it should get fixed up by change_pte_range()
but there is a window of opportunity for weirdness to happen. Similarly,
if a huge page is shrunk and split during a protection update but before
pmd_numa is cleared then a pte_numa can be left behind.

Instead of adding complexity trying to deal with the case, this patch
will not mark PTEs NUMA when splitting a huge page. NUMA hinting faults
will not be triggered which is marginal in comparison to the complexity
in dealing with the corner cases during THP split.

This patch (of 4):

The memcg charge API charges pages before they are rmapped - i.e.  have an
actual "type" - and so every callsite needs its own set of charge and
uncharge functions to know what type is being operated on.  Worse,
uncharge has to happen from a context that is still type-specific, rather
than at the end of the page's lifetime with exclusive access, and so
requires a lot of synchronization.

Rewrite the charge API to provide a generic set of try_charge(),
commit_charge() and cancel_charge() transaction operations, much like
what's currently done for swap-in:

  mem_cgroup_try_charge() attempts to reserve a charge, reclaiming
  pages from the memcg if necessary.

  mem_cgroup_commit_charge() commits the page to the charge once it
  has a valid page->mapping and PageAnon() reliably tells the type.

  mem_cgroup_cancel_charge() aborts the transaction.

This reduces the charge API and enables subsequent patches to
drastically simplify uncharging.

As pages need to be committed after rmap is established but before they
are added to the LRU, page_add_new_anon_rmap() must stop doing LRU
additions again.  Revive lru_cache_add_active_or_unevictable().

David Rientjes 14a4e2141e mm, thp: only collapse hugepages to nodes with affinity for zone_reclaim_mode
Commit 9f1b868a13 ("mm: thp: khugepaged: add policy for finding target
node") improved the previous khugepaged logic which allocated a
transparent hugepages from the node of the first page being collapsed.

However, it is still possible to collapse pages to remote memory which
may suffer from additional access latency.  With the current policy, it
is possible that 255 pages (with PAGE_SHIFT == 12) will be collapsed
remotely if the majority are allocated from that node.

When zone_reclaim_mode is enabled, it means the VM should make every
attempt to allocate locally to prevent NUMA performance degradation.  In
this case, we do not want to collapse hugepages to remote nodes that
would suffer from increased access latency.  Thus, when
zone_reclaim_mode is enabled, only allow collapsing to nodes with
RECLAIM_DISTANCE or less.

There is no functional change for systems that disable
zone_reclaim_mode.

Johannes Weiner d51d885bbb mm: huge_memory: use GFP_TRANSHUGE when charging huge pages
Transparent huge page charges prefer falling back to regular pages
rather than spending a lot of time in direct reclaim.

Desired reclaim behavior is usually declared in the gfp mask, but THP
charges use GFP_KERNEL and then rely on the fact that OOM is disabled
for THP charges, and that OOM-disabled charges don't retry reclaim.
Needless to say, this is anything but obvious and quite error prone.

Convert THP charges to use GFP_TRANSHUGE instead, which implies
__GFP_NORETRY, to indicate the low-latency requirement.

Waiman Long 3a79d52aa3 mm, thp: replace smp_mb after atomic_add by smp_mb__after_atomic
In some architectures like x86, atomic_add() is a full memory barrier.
In that case, an additional smp_mb() is just a waste of time.  This
patch replaces that smp_mb() by smp_mb__after_atomic() which will avoid
the redundant memory barrier in some architectures.

With a 3.16-rc1 based kernel, this patch reduced the execution time of
breaking 1000 transparent huge pages from 38,245us to 30,964us.  A
reduction of 19% which is quite sizeable.  It also reduces the %cpu time
of the __split_huge_page_refcount function in the perf profile from
2.18% to 1.15%.

Waiman Long f8303c2582 mm, thp: move invariant bug check out of loop in __split_huge_page_map
In __split_huge_page_map(), the check for page_mapcount(page) is
invariant within the for loop.  Because of the fact that the macro is
implemented using atomic_read(), the redundant check cannot be optimized
away by the compiler leading to unnecessary read to the page structure.

This patch moves the invariant bug check out of the loop so that it will
be done only once.  On a 3.16-rc1 based kernel, the execution time of a
microbenchmark that broke up 1000 transparent huge pages using munmap()
had an execution time of 38,245us and 38,548us with and without the
patch respectively.  The performance gain is about 1%.

    SyS_mlockall (include/linux/mm.h:1799 mm/mlock.c:817 mm/mlock.c:791)

I believe this comes about because, whereas collapsing and splitting THP
functions take anon_vma lock in write mode (which excludes concurrent
rmap walks), faulting THP functions (write protection and misplaced
NUMA) do not - and mostly they do not need to.

But they do use a pmdp_clear_flush(), set_pmd_at() sequence which, for
an instant (indeed, for a long instant, given the inter-CPU TLB flush in
there), leaves *pmd neither present not trans_huge.

Which can confuse a concurrent rmap walk, as when removing migration
ptes, seen in the dumped trace.  Although that rmap walk has a 4k page
to insert, anon_vmas containing THPs are in no way segregated from
4k-page anon_vmas, so the 4k-intent mm_find_pmd() does need to cope with
that instant when a trans_huge pmd is temporarily absent.

I don't think we need strengthen the locking at the THP end: it's easily
handled with an ACCESS_ONCE() before testing both conditions.

And since mm_find_pmd() had only one caller who wanted a THP rather than
a pmd, let's slightly repurpose it to fail when it hits a THP or
non-present pmd, and open code split_huge_page_address() again.

Hugh Dickins 5338a93722 mm: thp: fix DEBUG_PAGEALLOC oops in copy_page_rep()
Trinity has for over a year been reporting a CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC oops
in copy_page_rep() called from copy_user_huge_page() called from
do_huge_pmd_wp_page().

I believe this is a DEBUG_PAGEALLOC false positive, due to the source
page being split, and a tail page freed, while copy is in progress; and
not a problem without DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, since the pmd_same() check will
prevent a miscopy from being made visible.

Fix by adding get_user_huge_page() and put_user_huge_page(): reducing to
the usual get_page() and put_page() on head page in the usual config;
but get and put references to all of the tail pages when
DEBUG_PAGEALLOC.
