11 years agomm: introduce new field "managed_pages" to struct zone
Jiang Liu [Wed, 12 Dec 2012 21:52:12 +0000 (13:52 -0800)]
mm: introduce new field "managed_pages" to struct zone

Currently a zone's present_pages is calcuated as below, which is
inaccurate and may cause trouble to memory hotplug.

spanned_pages - absent_pages - memmap_pages - dma_reserve.

During fixing bugs caused by inaccurate zone->present_pages, we found
zone->present_pages has been abused.  The field zone->present_pages may
have different meanings in different contexts:

1) pages existing in a zone.
2) pages managed by the buddy system.

For more discussions about the issue, please refer to:
  http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/5/866
  https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1346751/

This patchset tries to introduce a new field named "managed_pages" to
struct zone, which counts "pages managed by the buddy system".  And revert
zone->present_pages to count "physical pages existing in a zone", which
also keep in consistence with pgdat->node_present_pages.

We will set an initial value for zone->managed_pages in function
free_area_init_core() and will adjust it later if the initial value is
inaccurate.

For DMA/normal zones, the initial value is set to:

(spanned_pages - absent_pages - memmap_pages - dma_reserve)

Later zone->managed_pages will be adjusted to the accurate value when the
bootmem allocator frees all free pages to the buddy system in function
free_all_bootmem_node() and free_all_bootmem().

The bootmem allocator doesn't touch highmem pages, so highmem zones'
managed_pages is set to the accurate value "spanned_pages - absent_pages"
in function free_area_init_core() and won't be updated anymore.

This patch also adds a new field "managed_pages" to /proc/zoneinfo
and sysrq showmem.

11 years agomm: node_states: introduce N_MEMORY
Lai Jiangshan [Wed, 12 Dec 2012 21:51:21 +0000 (13:51 -0800)]
mm: node_states: introduce N_MEMORY

We have N_NORMAL_MEMORY for standing for the nodes that have normal memory
with zone_type <= ZONE_NORMAL.

And we have N_HIGH_MEMORY for standing for the nodes that have normal or
high memory.

But we don't have any word to stand for the nodes that have *any* memory.

And we have N_CPU but without N_MEMORY.

Current code reuse the N_HIGH_MEMORY for this purpose because any node
which has memory must have high memory or normal memory currently.

A) But this reusing is bad for *readability*. Because the name
N_HIGH_MEMORY just stands for high or normal:

A.example 1)
mem_cgroup_nr_lru_pages():
for_each_node_state(nid, N_HIGH_MEMORY)

The user will be confused(why this function just counts for high or
normal memory node? does it counts for ZONE_MOVABLE's lru pages?)
until someone else tell them N_HIGH_MEMORY is reused to stand for
nodes that have any memory.

A.cont) If we introduce N_MEMORY, we can reduce this confusing
AND make the code more clearly:

A.example 2) mm/page_cgroup.c use N_HIGH_MEMORY twice:

One is in page_cgroup_init(void):
for_each_node_state(nid, N_HIGH_MEMORY) {

It means if the node have memory, we will allocate page_cgroup map for
the node. We should use N_MEMORY instead here to gaim more clearly.

The second using is in alloc_page_cgroup():
if (node_state(nid, N_HIGH_MEMORY))
addr = vzalloc_node(size, nid);

It means if the node has high or normal memory that can be allocated
from kernel. We should keep N_HIGH_MEMORY here, and it will be better
if the "any memory" semantic of N_HIGH_MEMORY is removed.

B) This reusing is out-dated if we introduce MOVABLE-dedicated node.
The MOVABLE-dedicated node should not appear in
node_stats[N_HIGH_MEMORY] nor node_stats[N_NORMAL_MEMORY],
because MOVABLE-dedicated node has no high or normal memory.

In x86_64, N_HIGH_MEMORY=N_NORMAL_MEMORY, if a MOVABLE-dedicated node
is in node_stats[N_HIGH_MEMORY], it is also means it is in
node_stats[N_NORMAL_MEMORY], it causes SLUB wrong.

The slub uses
for_each_node_state(nid, N_NORMAL_MEMORY)
and creates kmem_cache_node for MOVABLE-dedicated node and cause problem.

In one word, we need a N_MEMORY.  We just intrude it as an alias to
N_HIGH_MEMORY and fix all im-proper usages of N_HIGH_MEMORY in late
patches.

thp: implement refcounting for huge zero page

H.  Peter Anvin doesn't like huge zero page which sticks in memory forever
after the first allocation.  Here's implementation of lockless refcounting
for huge zero page.

We have two basic primitives: {get,put}_huge_zero_page(). They
manipulate reference counter.

If counter is 0, get_huge_zero_page() allocates a new huge page and takes
two references: one for caller and one for shrinker.  We free the page
only in shrinker callback if counter is 1 (only shrinker has the
reference).

put_huge_zero_page() only decrements counter.  Counter is never zero in
put_huge_zero_page() since shrinker holds on reference.

Freeing huge zero page in shrinker callback helps to avoid frequent
allocate-free.

Refcounting has cost.  On 4 socket machine I observe ~1% slowdown on
parallel (40 processes) read page faulting comparing to lazy huge page
allocation.  I think it's pretty reasonable for synthetic benchmark.

Kirill A. Shutemov [Wed, 12 Dec 2012 21:50:47 +0000 (13:50 -0800)]
thp: huge zero page: basic preparation

During testing I noticed big (up to 2.5 times) memory consumption overhead
on some workloads (e.g.  ft.A from NPB) if THP is enabled.

The main reason for that big difference is lacking zero page in THP case.
We have to allocate a real page on read page fault.

A program to demonstrate the issue:
#include <assert.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>

#define MB 1024*1024

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
        char *p;
        int i;

        posix_memalign((void **)&p, 2 * MB, 200 * MB);
        for (i = 0; i < 200 * MB; i+= 4096)
                assert(p[i] == 0);
        pause();
        return 0;
}

With thp-never RSS is about 400k, but with thp-always it's 200M.  After
the patcheset thp-always RSS is 400k too.

Design overview.

Huge zero page (hzp) is a non-movable huge page (2M on x86-64) filled with
zeros.  The way how we allocate it changes in the patchset:

- [01/10] simplest way: hzp allocated on boot time in hugepage_init();
- [09/10] lazy allocation on first use;
- [10/10] lockless refcounting + shrinker-reclaimable hzp;

We setup it in do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page() if area around fault address
is suitable for THP and we've got read page fault.  If we fail to setup
hzp (ENOMEM) we fallback to handle_pte_fault() as we normally do in THP.

On wp fault to hzp we allocate real memory for the huge page and clear it.
 If ENOMEM, graceful fallback: we create a new pmd table and set pte
around fault address to newly allocated normal (4k) page.  All other ptes
in the pmd set to normal zero page.

We cannot split hzp (and it's bug if we try), but we can split the pmd
which points to it.  On splitting the pmd we create a table with all ptes
set to normal zero page.

===

By hpa's request I've tried alternative approach for hzp implementation
(see Virtual huge zero page patchset): pmd table with all entries set to
zero page.  This way should be more cache friendly, but it increases TLB
pressure.

The problem with virtual huge zero page: it requires per-arch enabling.
We need a way to mark that pmd table has all ptes set to zero page.

===

I personally prefer implementation present in this patchset. It doesn't
touch arch-specific code.

This patch:

Huge zero page (hzp) is a non-movable huge page (2M on x86-64) filled with
zeros.

For now let's allocate the page on hugepage_init().  We'll switch to lazy
allocation later.

We are not going to map the huge zero page until we can handle it properly
on all code paths.

is_huge_zero_{pfn,pmd}() functions will be used by following patches to
check whether the pfn/pmd is huge zero page.

bootmem: remove alloc_arch_preferred_bootmem()

The name of this function is not suitable, and removing the function and
open-coding it into each call sites makes the code more understandable.

Additionally, we shouldn't do an allocation from bootmem when
slab_is_available(), so directly return kmalloc()'s return value.

 "All architectures are converted to new model.  Quite a bit of that
  stuff is actually shared with architecture trees; in such cases it's
  literally shared branch pulled by both, not a cherry-pick.

  A lot of ugliness and black magic is gone (-3KLoC total in this one):

   - kernel_thread()/kernel_execve()/sys_execve() redesign.

     We don't do syscalls from kernel anymore for either kernel_thread()
     or kernel_execve():

     kernel_thread() is essentially clone(2) with callback run before we
     return to userland, the callbacks either never return or do
     successful do_execve() before returning.

     kernel_execve() is a wrapper for do_execve() - it doesn't need to
     do transition to user mode anymore.

     As a result kernel_thread() and kernel_execve() are
     arch-independent now - they live in kernel/fork.c and fs/exec.c
     resp.  sys_execve() is also in fs/exec.c and it's completely
     architecture-independent.

   - daemonize() is gone, along with its parts in fs/*.c

   - struct pt_regs * is no longer passed to do_fork/copy_process/
     copy_thread/do_execve/search_binary_handler/->load_binary/do_coredump.

   - sys_fork()/sys_vfork()/sys_clone() unified; some architectures
     still need wrappers (ones with callee-saved registers not saved in
     pt_regs on syscall entry), but the main part of those suckers is in

 "A lot of activities on cgroup side.  The big changes are focused on
  making cgroup hierarchy handling saner.

   - cgroup_rmdir() had peculiar semantics - it allowed cgroup
     destruction to be vetoed by individual controllers and tried to
     drain refcnt synchronously.  The vetoing never worked properly and
     caused good deal of contortions in cgroup.  memcg was the last
     reamining user.  Michal Hocko removed the usage and cgroup_rmdir()
     path has been simplified significantly.  This was done in a
     separate branch so that the memcg people can base further memcg
     changes on top.

   - The above allowed cleaning up cgroup lifecycle management and
     implementation of generic cgroup iterators which are used to
     improve hierarchy support.

   - cgroup_freezer updated to allow migration in and out of a frozen
     cgroup and handle hierarchy.  If a cgroup is frozen, all descendant
     cgroups are frozen.

   - netcls_cgroup and netprio_cgroup updated to handle hierarchy
     properly.

   - Various fixes and cleanups.

   - Two merge commits.  One to pull in memcg and rmdir cleanups (needed
     to build iterators).  The other pulled in cgroup/for-3.7-fixes for
     device_cgroup fixes so that further device_cgroup patches can be

MN10300: fix SMP synchronization between txdma and serial driver

The SoC serial port driver uses a high priority interrupt to handle tx of
characters in the tx ring buffer. The driver needs to disable/enable this IRQ
from outside of irq context. The original code to do this is not foolproof on
SMP machines because the IRQ running on one core could still access the serial
port for a short time after the driver running on another core disables the
interrupt. This patch adds a flag to tell the IRQ handler that the driver
wants to disable the interrupt. After seeing the flag, the IRQ handler will
immediately disable the interrupt and exit. After setting the flag, the driver
will wait for interrupt to be disabled by the IRQ handler.

MN10300: fix serial port vdma irq setup for SMP

The builtin SoC serial ports have no FIFOs and use a virtual DMA mechanism
based on high priority IRQs to avoid overruns. These high priority interrupts
are pinned to cpu#0 on SMP systems. This patch fixes a problem with SMP where
the set_intr_level() interface is used to set the priority for these IRQs. The
set_intr_level() function sets priority on the local cpu but on SMP systems,
this code may be run on some other cpu than the one handling the interrupts.
Instead of setting interrupt level explicitly, this patch uses a special
irq_chip for these interrupts so that the mask/unmask methods can set the
interrupt level implicitly.

Merge branch 'omap-serial' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-arm

Pull ARM OMAP serial updates from Russell King:
 "This series is a major reworking of the OMAP serial driver code fixing
  various bugs in the hardware-assisted flow control, extending up into
  serial_core for a couple of issues.  These fixes have been done as a
  set of progressive changes and transformations in the hope that no new
  bugs will be introduced by this series.

  The problems are many-fold, from the driver not being informed about
  updated settings, to the driver not knowing what the intentions of the
  upper layers are.

  The first four patches tackle the serial_core layer, allowing it to
  provide the necessary information to drivers, and the remaining
  patches allow the OMAP serial driver to take advantage of this.

  This brings hardware assisted RTS/CTS and XON/OFF flow control into a
  useful state.

  These patches have been in linux-next for most of the last cycle;
  indeed they predate the previous merge window.  They've also been
  posted to the OMAP people."
