swap: add a simple detector for inappropriate swapin readahead
This is a patch to improve swap readahead algorithm. It's from Hugh and I
slightly changed it.
Hugh's original changelog:
swapin readahead does a blind readahead, whether or not the swapin
is sequential. This may be ok on harddisk, because large reads have
relatively small costs, and if the readahead pages are unneeded they
can be reclaimed easily - though, what if their allocation forced
reclaim of useful pages? But on SSD devices large reads are more
expensive than small ones: if the readahead pages are unneeded,
reading them in caused significant overhead.
This patch adds very simplistic random read detection. Stealing
the PageReadahead technique from Konstantin Khlebnikov's patch,
avoiding the vma/anon_vma sophistications of Shaohua Li's patch,
swapin_nr_pages() simply looks at readahead's current success
rate, and narrows or widens its readahead window accordingly.
There is little science to its heuristic: it's about as stupid
as can be whilst remaining effective.
The table below shows elapsed times (in centiseconds) when running
a single repetitive swapping load across a 1000MB mapping in 900MB
ram with 1GB swap (the harddisk tests had taken painfully too long
when I used mem=500M, but SSD shows similar results for that).
Vanilla is the 3.6-rc7 kernel on which I started; Shaohua denotes
his Sep 3 patch in mmotm and linux-next; HughOld denotes my Oct 1
patch which Shaohua showed to be defective; HughNew this Nov 14
patch, with page_cluster as usual at default of 3 (8-page reads);
HughPC4 this same patch with page_cluster 4 (16-page reads);
HughPC0 with page_cluster 0 (1-page reads: no readahead).
HDD for swapping to harddisk, SSD for swapping to VertexII SSD.
Seq for sequential access to the mapping, cycling five times around;
Rand for the same number of random touches. Anon for a MAP_PRIVATE
anon mapping; Shmem for a MAP_SHARED anon mapping, equivalent to tmpfs.
One weakness of Shaohua's vma/anon_vma approach was that it did
not optimize Shmem: seen below. Konstantin's approach was perhaps
mistuned, 50% slower on Seq: did not compete and is not shown below.
These tests are, of course, two extremes of a very simple case:
under heavier mixed loads I've not yet observed any consistent
improvement or degradation, and wider testing would be welcome.
Shaohua Li:
Test shows Vanilla is slightly better in sequential workload than Hugh's patch.
I observed with Hugh's patch sometimes the readahead size is shrinked too fast
(from 8 to 1 immediately) in sequential workload if there is no hit. And in
such case, continuing doing readahead is good actually.
I don't prepare a sophisticated algorithm for the sequential workload because
so far we can't guarantee sequential accessed pages are swap out sequentially.
So I slightly change Hugh's heuristic - don't shrink readahead size too fast.
Here is my test result (unit second, 3 runs average):
Vanilla Hugh New
Seq 356 370 360
Random 4525 2447 2444
Attached graph is the swapin/swapout throughput I collected with 'vmstat 2'.
The first part is running a random workload (till around 1200 of the x-axis)
and the second part is running a sequential workload. swapin and swapout
throughput are almost identical in steady state in both workloads. These are
expected behavior. while in Vanilla, swapin is much bigger than swapout
especially in random workload (because wrong readahead).

swap: fix setting PAGE_SIZE blocksize during swapoff/swapon race
Fix race between swapoff and swapon resulting in setting blocksize of
PAGE_SIZE for block devices during swapoff.
The swapon modifies swap_info->old_block_size before acquiring
swapon_mutex. It reads block_size of bdev, stores it under
swap_info->old_block_size and sets new block_size to PAGE_SIZE.
On the other hand the swapoff sets the device's block_size to
old_block_size after releasing swapon_mutex.
This patch locks the swapon_mutex much earlier during swapon. It also
releases the swapon_mutex later during swapoff.
The effect of race can be triggered by following scenario:
- One block swap device with block size of 512
- thread 1: Swapon is called, swap is activated,
p->old_block_size = block_size(p->bdev); /512/
block_size(p->bdev) = PAGE_SIZE;
Thread ends.
- thread 2: Swapoff is called and it goes just after releasing the
swapon_mutex. The swap is now fully disabled except of setting the
block size to old value. The p->bdev->block_size is still equal to
PAGE_SIZE.
- thread 3: New swapon is called. This swap is disabled so without
acquiring the swapon_mutex:
- p->old_block_size = block_size(p->bdev); /PAGE_SIZE (!!!)/
- block_size(p->bdev) = PAGE_SIZE;
Swap is activated and thread ends.
- thread 2: resumes work and sets blocksize to old value:
- set_blocksize(bdev, p->old_block_size)
But now the p->old_block_size is equal to PAGE_SIZE.
The patch swap-fix-set_blocksize-race-during-swapon-swapoff does not fix
this particular issue. It reduces the possibility of races as the swapon
must overwrite p->old_block_size before acquiring swapon_mutex in swapoff.

objrmap doesn't work for nonlinear VMAs because the assumption that
offset-into-file correlates with offset-into-virtual-addresses does not

each nonlinear VMA which maps the file to which the target page belongs.
If vma locked, mlock the pages in the cluster, rather than unmapping them.
However, not all pages are guarantee page locked instead of the check
page, resulting in the below BUG_ON().
It's safe to mlock_vma_page() without PageLocked, so fix this issue by
removing that BUG_ON().
memcg: do not use vmalloc for mem_cgroup allocations
The vmalloc was introduced by 333279 ("memcgroup: use vmalloc for

defining the per-node array in the mem_cgroup structure so that the
structure could be huge even if the system had the only NUMA node.
The situation was significantly improved by patch 45cf7e ("memcg: reduce
the size of struct memcg 244-fold"), which made the size of the mem_cgroup
structure calculated dynamically depending on the real number of NUMA
nodes installed on the system (nr_node_ids), so now there is no point in
using vmalloc here: the structure is allocated rarely and on most systems
its size is about 1K.

mm: munlock: fix potential race with THP page split
Since commit ff6a6da60 ("mm: accelerate munlock() treatment of THP pages")
munlock skips tail pages of a munlocked THP page. There is some attempt
to prevent bad consequences of racing with a THP page split, but code
inspection indicates that there are two problems that may lead to a
non-fatal, yet wrong outcome.
First, __split_huge_page_refcount() copies flags including PageMlocked
from the head page to the tail pages. Clearing PageMlocked by
munlock_vma_page() in the middle of this operation might result in part of
tail pages left with PageMlocked flag. As the head page still appears to
be a THP page until all tail pages are processed, munlock_vma_page() might
think it munlocked the whole THP page and skip all the former tail pages.
Before ff6a6da60, those pages would be cleared in further iterations of
munlock_vma_pages_range(), but NR_MLOCK would still become undercounted
(related the next point).
Second, NR_MLOCK accounting is based on call to hpage_nr_pages() after the
PageMlocked is cleared. The accounting might also become inconsistent due
to race with __split_huge_page_refcount()
- undercount when HUGE_PMD_NR is subtracted, but some tail pages are
left with PageMlocked set and counted again (only possible before ff6a6da60)
- overcount when hpage_nr_pages() sees a normal page (split has already
finished), but the parallel split has meanwhile cleared PageMlocked from
additional tail pages
This patch prevents both problems via extending the scope of lru_lock in
munlock_vma_page(). This is convenient because:
- __split_huge_page_refcount() takes lru_lock for its whole operation
- munlock_vma_page() typically takes lru_lock anyway for page isolation
As this becomes a second function where page isolation is done with
lru_lock already held, factor this out to a new
__munlock_isolate_lru_page() function and clean up the code around.

mm: compaction: reset scanner positions immediately when they meet
Compaction used to start its migrate and free page scaners at the zone's
lowest and highest pfn, respectively. Later, caching was introduced to
remember the scanners' progress across compaction attempts so that
pageblocks are not re-scanned uselessly. Additionally, pageblocks where
isolation failed are marked to be quickly skipped when encountered again
in future compactions.
Currently, both the reset of cached pfn's and clearing of the pageblock
skip information for a zone is done in __reset_isolation_suitable(). This
function gets called when:
- compaction is restarting after being deferred
- compact_blockskip_flush flag is set in compact_finished() when the scanners
meet (and not again cleared when direct compaction succeeds in allocation)
and kswapd acts upon this flag before going to sleep
This behavior is suboptimal for several reasons:
- when direct sync compaction is called after async compaction fails (in the
allocation slowpath), it will effectively do nothing, unless kswapd
happens to process the compact_blockskip_flush flag meanwhile. This is racy
and goes against the purpose of sync compaction to more thoroughly retry
the compaction of a zone where async compaction has failed.
The restart-after-deferring path cannot help here as deferring happens only
after the sync compaction fails. It is also done only for the preferred
zone, while the compaction might be done for a fallback zone.
- the mechanism of marking pageblock to be skipped has little value since the
cached pfn's are reset only together with the pageblock skip flags. This
effectively limits pageblock skip usage to parallel compactions.
This patch changes compact_finished() so that cached pfn's are reset
immediately when the scanners meet. Clearing pageblock skip flags is
unchanged, as well as the other situations where cached pfn's are reset.
This allows the sync-after-async compaction to retry pageblocks not marked
as skipped, such as blocks !MIGRATE_MOVABLE blocks that async compactions
now skips without marking them.

mm: compaction: do not mark unmovable pageblocks as skipped in async compaction
Compaction temporarily marks pageblocks where it fails to isolate pages as
to-be-skipped in further compactions, in order to improve efficiency. One
of the reasons to fail isolating pages is that isolation is not attempted
in pageblocks that are not of MIGRATE_MOVABLE (or CMA) type.
The problem is that blocks skipped due to not being MIGRATE_MOVABLE in
async compaction become skipped due to the temporary mark also in future
sync compaction. Moreover, this may follow quite soon during
__alloc_page_slowpath, without much time for kswapd to clear the pageblock
skip marks. This goes against the idea that sync compaction should try to
scan these blocks more thoroughly than the async compaction.
The fix is to ensure in async compaction that these !MIGRATE_MOVABLE
blocks are not marked to be skipped. Note this should not affect
performance or locking impact of further async compactions, as skipping a
block due to being !MIGRATE_MOVABLE is done soon after skipping a block
marked to be skipped, both without locking.

mm: compaction: detect when scanners meet in isolate_freepages
Compaction of a zone is finished when the migrate scanner (which begins at
the zone's lowest pfn) meets the free page scanner (which begins at the
zone's highest pfn). This is detected in compact_zone() and in the case
of direct compaction, the compact_blockskip_flush flag is set so that
kswapd later resets the cached scanner pfn's, and a new compaction may
again start at the zone's borders.
The meeting of the scanners can happen during either scanner's activity.
However, it may currently fail to be detected when it occurs in the free
page scanner, due to two problems. First, isolate_freepages() keeps
free_pfn at the highest block where it isolated pages from, for the
purposes of not missing the pages that are returned back to allocator when
migration fails. Second, failing to isolate enough free pages due to
scanners meeting results in -ENOMEM being returned by migrate_pages(),
which makes compact_zone() bail out immediately without calling
compact_finished() that would detect scanners meeting.
This failure to detect scanners meeting might result in repeated attempts
at compaction of a zone that keep starting from the cached pfn's close to
the meeting point, and quickly failing through the -ENOMEM path, without
the cached pfns being reset, over and over. This has been observed
(through additional tracepoints) in the third phase of the mmtests
stress-highalloc benchmark, where the allocator runs on an otherwise idle
system. The problem was observed in the DMA32 zone, which was used as a
fallback to the preferred Normal zone, but on the 4GB system it was
actually the largest zone. The problem is even amplified for such
fallback zone - the deferred compaction logic, which could (after being
fixed by a previous patch) reset the cached scanner pfn's, is only applied
to the preferred zone and not for the fallbacks.
The problem in the third phase of the benchmark was further amplified by
commit 81c0a2bb ("mm: page_alloc: fair zone allocator policy") which
resulted in a non-deterministic regression of the allocation success rate
from ~85% to ~65%. This occurs in about half of benchmark runs, making
bisection problematic. It is unlikely that the commit itself is buggy,
but it should put more pressure on the DMA32 zone during phases 1 and 2,
which may leave it more fragmented in phase 3 and expose the bugs that
this patch fixes.
The fix is to make scanners meeting in isolate_freepage() stay that way,
and to check in compact_zone() for scanners meeting when migrate_pages()
returns -ENOMEM. The result is that compact_finished() also detects
scanners meeting and sets the compact_blockskip_flush flag to make kswapd
reset the scanner pfn's.
The results in stress-highalloc benchmark show that the "regression" by
commit 81c0a2bb in phase 3 no longer occurs, and phase 1 and 2 allocation
success rates are also significantly improved.

mm: compaction: reset cached scanner pfn's before reading them
Compaction caches pfn's for its migrate and free scanners to avoid
scanning the whole zone each time. In compact_zone(), the cached values
are read to set up initial values for the scanners. There are several
situations when these cached pfn's are reset to the first and last pfn of
the zone, respectively. One of these situations is when a compaction has
been deferred for a zone and is now being restarted during a direct
compaction, which is also done in compact_zone().
However, compact_zone() currently reads the cached pfn's *before*
resetting them. This means the reset doesn't affect the compaction that
performs it, and with good chance also subsequent compactions, as
update_pageblock_skip() is likely to be called and update the cached pfn's
to those being processed. Another chance for a successful reset is when a
direct compaction detects that migration and free scanners meet (which has
its own problems addressed by another patch) and sets
update_pageblock_skip flag which kswapd uses to do the reset because it
goes to sleep.
This is clearly a bug that results in non-deterministic behavior, so this
patch moves the cached pfn reset to be performed *before* the values are
read.

mm: compaction: encapsulate defer reset logic
Currently there are several functions to manipulate the deferred
compaction state variables. The remaining case where the variables are
touched directly is when a successful allocation occurs in direct
compaction, or is expected to be successful in the future by kswapd.
Here, the lowest order that is expected to fail is updated, and in the
case of successful allocation, the deferred status and counter is reset
completely.
Create a new function compaction_defer_reset() to encapsulate this
functionality and make it easier to understand the code. No functional
change.

mm: compaction: trace compaction begin and end
The broad goal of the series is to improve allocation success rates for
huge pages through memory compaction, while trying not to increase the
compaction overhead. The original objective was to reintroduce capturing
of high-order pages freed by the compaction, before they are split by
concurrent activity. However, several bugs and opportunities for simple
improvements were found in the current implementation, mostly through
extra tracepoints (which are however too ugly for now to be considered for
sending).
The patches mostly deal with two mechanisms that reduce compaction
overhead, which is caching the progress of migrate and free scanners, and
marking pageblocks where isolation failed to be skipped during further
scans.
Patch 1 (from mgorman) adds tracepoints that allow calculate time spent in
compaction and potentially debug scanner pfn values.
Patch 2 encapsulates the some functionality for handling deferred compactions
for better maintainability, without a functional change
type is not determined without being actually needed.
Patch 3 fixes a bug where cached scanner pfn's are sometimes reset only after
they have been read to initialize a compaction run.
Patch 4 fixes a bug where scanners meeting is sometimes not properly detected
and can lead to multiple compaction attempts quitting early without
doing any work.
Patch 5 improves the chances of sync compaction to process pageblocks that
async compaction has skipped due to being !MIGRATE_MOVABLE.
Patch 6 improves the chances of sync direct compaction to actually do anything
when called after async compaction fails during allocation slowpath.
The impact of patches were validated using mmtests's stress-highalloc
benchmark with mmtests's stress-highalloc benchmark on a x86_64 machine
with 4GB memory.
Due to instability of the results (mostly related to the bugs fixed by
patches 2 and 3), 10 iterations were performed, taking min,mean,max values
for success rates and mean values for time and vmstat-based metrics.
First, the default GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE allocations were tested with the
patches stacked on top of v3.13-rc2. Patch 2 is OK to serve as baseline
due to no functional changes in 1 and 2. Comments below.
- The "Success 3" line is allocation success rate with system idle
(phases 1 and 2 are with background interference). I used to get stable
values around 85% with vanilla 3.11. The lower min and mean values came
with 3.12. This was bisected to commit 81c0a2bb ("mm: page_alloc: fair
zone allocator policy") As explained in comment for patch 3, I don't
think the commit is wrong, but that it makes the effect of compaction
bugs worse. From patch 3 onwards, the results are OK and match the 3.11
results.
- Patch 4 also clearly helps phases 1 and 2, and exceeds any results
I've seen with 3.11 (I didn't measure it that thoroughly then, but it
was never above 40%).
- Compaction cost and number of scanned pages is higher, especially due
to patch 4. However, keep in mind that patches 3 and 4 fix existing
bugs in the current design of compaction overhead mitigation, they do
not change it. If overhead is found unacceptable, then it should be
decreased differently (and consistently, not due to random conditions)
than the current implementation does. In contrast, patches 5 and 6
(which are not strictly bug fixes) do not increase the overhead (but
also not success rates). This might be a limitation of the
stress-highalloc benchmark as it's quite uniform.
Another set of results is when configuring stress-highalloc t allocate
with similar flags as THP uses:
(GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE|__GFP_NOMEMALLOC|__GFP_NORETRY|__GFP_NO_KSWAPD)
There are some differences from the previous results for THP-like allocations:
- Here, the bad result for unpatched kernel in phase 3 is much more
consistent to be between 65-70% and not related to the "regression" in
3.12. Still there is the improvement from patch 4 onwards, which brings
it on par with simple GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE allocations.
- Compaction costs have increased, but nowhere near as much as the
non-THP case. Again, the patches should be worth the gained
determininsm.
- Patches 5 and 6 somewhat increase the number of migrate-scanned pages.
This is most likely due to __GFP_NO_KSWAPD flag, which means the cached
pfn's and pageblock skip bits are not reset by kswapd that often (at
least in phase 3 where no concurrent activity would wake up kswapd) and
the patches thus help the sync-after-async compaction. It doesn't
however show that the sync compaction would help so much with success
rates, which can be again seen as a limitation of the benchmark
scenario.
This patch (of 6):
Add two tracepoints for compaction begin and end of a zone. Using this it
is possible to calculate how much time a workload is spending within
compaction and potentially debug problems related to cached pfns for
scanning. In combination with the direct reclaim and slab trace points it
should be possible to estimate most allocation-related overhead for a
workload.

memcg, oom: lock mem_cgroup_print_oom_info
mem_cgroup_print_oom_info uses a static buffer (memcg_name) to store the

because memcg oom is locked only for its hierarchy and nothing prevents
another parallel hierarchy to trigger oom as well and overwrite the

This patch introduces oom_info_lock hidden inside
mem_cgroup_print_oom_info which is held throughout the function. It makes

sched: add tracepoints related to NUMA task migration
This patch adds three tracepoints
o trace_sched_move_numa when a task is moved to a node
o trace_sched_swap_numa when a task is swapped with another task
o trace_sched_stick_numa when a numa-related migration fails
The tracepoints allow the NUMA scheduler activity to be monitored and the
following high-level metrics can be calculated
o NUMA migrated stuck nr trace_sched_stick_numa
o NUMA migrated idle nr trace_sched_move_numa
o NUMA migrated swapped nr trace_sched_swap_numa
o NUMA local swapped trace_sched_swap_numa src_nid == dst_nid (should never happen)
o NUMA remote swapped trace_sched_swap_numa src_nid != dst_nid (should == NUMA migrated swapped)
o NUMA group swapped trace_sched_swap_numa src_ngid == dst_ngid
Maybe a small number of these are acceptable
but a high number would be a major surprise.
It would be even worse if bounces are frequent.
o NUMA avg task migs. Average number of migrations for tasks
o NUMA stddev task mig Self-explanatory
o NUMA max task migs. Maximum number of migrations for a single task
In general the intent of the tracepoints is to help diagnose problems
where automatic NUMA balancing appears to be doing an excessive amount of
useless work.

bootmem allocator. No functional change in beahvior than what it is in
current code from bootmem users points of view.
Archs already converted to NO_BOOTMEM now directly use memblock interfaces
instead of bootmem wrappers build on top of memblock. And the archs which
still uses bootmem, these new apis just fallback to exiting bootmem APIs.

As result, now build is failed if "bootmem.h" included before

header in bootmem.h.

Introduce memblock memory allocation APIs which allow to support PAE or
LPAE extension on 32 bits archs where the physical memory start address
can be beyond 4GB. In such cases, existing bootmem APIs which operate on
32 bit addresses won't work and needs memblock layer which operates on 64
bit addresses.
So we add equivalent APIs so that we can replace usage of bootmem with
memblock interfaces. Architectures already converted to NO_BOOTMEM use
these new memblock interfaces. The architectures which are still not
converted to NO_BOOTMEM continue to function as is because we still
maintain the fal lback option of bootmem back-end supporting these new
interfaces. So no functional change as such.
In long run, once all the architectures moves to NO_BOOTMEM, we can get
rid of bootmem layer completely. This is one step to remove the core code
dependency with bootmem and also gives path for architectures to move away
from bootmem.
The proposed interface will became active if both CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK and
CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM are specified by arch. In case !CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM, the
memblock() wrappers will fallback to the existing bootmem apis so that
arch's not converted to NO_BOOTMEM continue to work as is.
The meaning of MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ACCESSIBLE and MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE
is kept same.

mm/memblock: debug: don't free reserved array if !ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK
Now the Nobootmem allocator will always try to free memory allocated for
reserved memory regions (free_low_memory_core_early()) without taking into
to account current memblock debugging configuration
(CONFIG_ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK and CONFIG_DEBUG_FS state). As result if:
- CONFIG_DEBUG_FS defined
- CONFIG_ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK not defined;
- reserved memory regions array have been resized during boot
then:
- memory allocated for reserved memory regions array will be freed to
buddy allocator;
- debug_fs entry "sys/kernel/debug/memblock/reserved" will show garbage
instead of state of memory reservations. like:
0: 0x98393bc0..0x9a393bbf
1: 0xff120000..0xff11ffff
2: 0x00000000..0xffffffff
Hence, do not free memory allocated for reserved memory regions if
defined(CONFIG_DEBUG_FS) && !defined(CONFIG_ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK).

oom_kill: add rcu_read_lock() into find_lock_task_mm()

it seems that at least oom_unkillable_task()->task_in_mem_cgroup() and
mem_cgroup_out_of_memory()->oom_badness() can call it lockless.
Perhaps we could fix the callers, but this patch simply adds rcu lock into
find_lock_task_mm(). This also allows to simplify a bit one of its
callers, oom_kill_process().
At least out_of_memory() calls has_intersects_mems_allowed() without even
rcu_read_lock(), this is obviously buggy.
Add the necessary rcu_read_lock(). This means that we can not simply
return from the loop, we need "bool ret" and "break".
While at it, swap the names of task_struct's (the argument and the local).
This cleans up the code a little bit and avoids the unnecessary
initialization.

introduce for_each_thread() to replace the buggy while_each_thread()
while_each_thread() and next_thread() should die, almost every lockless
usage is wrong.
1. Unless g == current, the lockless while_each_thread() is not safe.
while_each_thread(g, t) can loop forever if g exits, next_thread()
can't reach the unhashed thread in this case. Note that this can
happen even if g is the group leader, it can exec.
2. Even if while_each_thread() itself was correct, people often use
it wrongly.
It was never safe to just take rcu_read_lock() and loop unless
you verify that pid_alive(g) == T, even the first next_thread()
can point to the already freed/reused memory.
This patch adds signal_struct->thread_head and task->thread_node to create
the normal rcu-safe list with the stable head. The new for_each_thread(g,
t) helper is always safe under rcu_read_lock() as long as this task_struct
can't go away.
Note: of course it is ugly to have both task_struct->thread_node and the
old task_struct->thread_group, we will kill it later, after we change the
users of while_each_thread() to use for_each_thread().
Perhaps we can kill it even before we convert all users, we can
reimplement next_thread(t) using the new thread_head/thread_node. But we
can't do this right now because this will lead to subtle behavioural
changes. For example, do/while_each_thread() always sees at least one
task, while for_each_thread() can do nothing if the whole thread group has
died. Or thread_group_empty(), currently its semantics is not clear
unless thread_group_leader(p) and we need to audit the callers before we
can change it.
So this patch adds the new interface which has to coexist with the old one
for some time, hopefully the next changes will be more or less
straightforward and the old one will go away soon.

mm/rmap: recompute pgoff for huge page
Rmap traversing is used in five different cases, try_to_unmap(),
try_to_munlock(), page_referenced(), page_mkclean() and
remove_migration_ptes(). Each one implements its own traversing functions
for the cases, anon, file, ksm, respectively. These cause lots of
duplications and cause maintenance overhead. They also make codes being
hard to understand and error-prone. One example is hugepage handling.
There is a code to compute hugepage offset correctly in
try_to_unmap_file(), but, there isn't a code to compute hugepage offset in
rmap_walk_file(). These are used pairwise in migration context, but we
missed to modify pairwise.
To overcome these drawbacks, we should unify these through one unified
function. I decide rmap_walk() as main function since it has no
unnecessity. And to control behavior of rmap_walk(), I introduce struct
rmap_walk_control having some function pointers. These makes rmap_walk()
working for their specific needs.

short-stat and kernel text size also decrease slightly.

on HPAGE_SIZE is not approapriate for scanning the vma interval tree, as
shown by commit 36e4f20af833 ("hugetlb: do not use vma_hugecache_offset()

patched (KMEM_ACCOUNTED_ACTIVATED). Currently memcg_can_account_kmem()
allows kmem accounting even if only one of the conditions is true. Fix
it.
This means that a page might get charged by memcg_kmem_newpage_charge
which would see its static key patched already but
memcg_kmem_commit_charge would still see it unpatched and so the charge
won't be committed. The result would be charge inconsistency (page_cgroup

x86, numa, acpi, memory-hotplug: make movable_node have higher priority
If users specify the original movablecore=nn@ss boot option, the kernel
will arrange [ss, ss+nn) as ZONE_MOVABLE. The kernelcore=nn@ss boot
option is similar except it specifies ZONE_NORMAL ranges.
Now, if users specify "movable_node" in kernel commandline, the kernel
will arrange hotpluggable memory in SRAT as ZONE_MOVABLE. And if users do
this, all the other movablecore=nn@ss and kernelcore=nn@ss options should
be ignored.
For those who don't want this, just specify nothing. The kernel will act
as before.

memblock, mem_hotplug: make memblock skip hotpluggable regions if needed
Linux kernel cannot migrate pages used by the kernel. As a result,
hotpluggable memory used by the kernel won't be able to be hot-removed.
To solve this problem, the basic idea is to prevent memblock from
allocating hotpluggable memory for the kernel at early time, and arrange
all hotpluggable memory in ACPI SRAT(System Resource Affinity Table) as
ZONE_MOVABLE when initializing zones.
In the previous patches, we have marked hotpluggable memory regions with
MEMBLOCK_HOTPLUG flag in memblock.memory.
In this patch, we make memblock skip these hotpluggable memory regions in
the default top-down allocation function if movable_node boot option is
specified.

There is no flag in memblock to describe what type the memory is.
Sometimes, we may use memblock to reserve some memory for special usage.
And we want to know what kind of memory it is. So we need a way to
In hotplug environment, we want to reserve hotpluggable memory so the
kernel won't be able to use it. And when the system is up, we have to
free these hotpluggable memory to buddy. So we need to mark these memory
first.
In order to do so, we need to mark out these special memory in memblock.
In this patch, we introduce a new "flags" member into memblock_region:
struct memblock_region {
phys_addr_t base;
phys_addr_t size;
unsigned long flags; /* This is new. */
#ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP
int nid;
#endif
};
This patch does the following things:
1) Add "flags" member to memblock_region.
2) Modify the following APIs' prototype:
memblock_add_region()
memblock_insert_region()
3) Add memblock_reserve_region() to support reserve memory with flags, and keep
memblock_reserve()'s prototype unmodified.
4) Modify other APIs to support flags, but keep their prototype unmodified.
