* mm, memory_hotplug: move movable_node to the hotplug properMichal Hocko2017-07-061-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | movable_node_is_enabled is defined in memblock proper while it is initialized from the memory hotplug proper. This is quite messy and it makes a dependency between the two so move movable_node along with the helper functions to memory_hotplug. To make it more entertaining the kernel parameter is ignored unless CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP=y because we do not have the node information for each memblock otherwise. So let's warn when the option is disabled.

* mm, memory_hotplug: drop CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODEMichal Hocko2017-07-061-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 20b2f52b73fe ("numa: add CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE for movable-dedicated node") has introduced CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE without a good explanation on why it is actually useful. It makes a lot of sense to make movable node semantic opt in but we already have that because the feature has to be explicitly enabled on the kernel command line. A config option on top only makes the configuration space larger without a good reason. It also adds an additional ifdefery that pollutes the code. Just drop the config option and make it de-facto always enabled. This shouldn't introduce any change to the semantic.

* mm, memory_hotplug: drop artificial restriction on online/offlineMichal Hocko2017-07-061-58/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch series "remove CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE". I am continuing to clean up the memory hotplug code and CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE seems dubious at best. The following two patches simply removes the flag and make it de-facto always enabled. The current semantic of the config option is twofold 1) it automatically binds hotplugable nodes to have memory in zone_movable by default when movable_node is enabled 2) forbids memory hotplug to online all the memory as movable when !CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE. The later restriction is quite dubious because there is no clear cut of how much normal memory do we need for a reasonable system operation. A single memory block which is sufficient to allow further movable onlines is far from sufficient (e.g a node with >2GB and memblocks 128MB will fill up this zone with struct pages leaving nothing for other allocations). Removing the config option will not only reduce the configuration space it also removes quite some code. The semantic of the movable_node command line parameter is preserved. The first patch removes the restriction mentioned above and the second one simply removes all the CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE related stuff. The last patch moves movable_node flag handling to memory_hotplug proper where it belongs. [1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170524122411.25212-1-mhocko@kernel.org This patch (of 3): Commit 74d42d8fe146 ("memory_hotplug: ensure every online node has NORMAL memory") has introduced a restriction that every numa node has to have at least some memory in !movable zones before a first movable memory can be onlined if !CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE. Likewise can_offline_normal checks the amount of normal memory in !movable zones and it disallows to offline memory if there is no normal memory left with a justification that "memory-management acts bad when we have nodes which is online but don't have any normal memory". While it is true that not having _any_ memory for kernel allocations on a NUMA node is far from great and such a node would be quite subotimal because all kernel allocations will have to fallback to another NUMA node but there is no reason to disallow such a configuration in principle. Besides that there is not really a big difference to have one memblock for ZONE_NORMAL available or none. With 128MB size memblocks the system might trash on the kernel allocations requests anyway. It is really hard to draw a line on how much normal memory is really sufficient so we have to rely on administrator to configure system sanely therefore drop the artificial restriction and remove can_offline_normal and can_online_high_movable altogether.

* mm, page_alloc: pass preferred nid instead of zonelist to allocatorVlastimil Babka2017-07-061-4/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The main allocator function __alloc_pages_nodemask() takes a zonelist pointer as one of its parameters. All of its callers directly or indirectly obtain the zonelist via node_zonelist() using a preferred node id and gfp_mask. We can make the code a bit simpler by doing the zonelist lookup in __alloc_pages_nodemask(), passing it a preferred node id instead (gfp_mask is already another parameter). There are some code size benefits thanks to removal of inlined node_zonelist(): bloat-o-meter add/remove: 2/2 grow/shrink: 4/36 up/down: 399/-1351 (-952) This will also make things simpler if we proceed with converting cpusets to zonelists.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | arch_add_memory gets for_device argument which then controls whether we want to create memblocks for created memory sections. Simplify the logic by telling whether we want memblocks directly rather than going through pointless negation.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Heiko Carstens has noticed that he can generate overlapping zones for ZONE_DMA and ZONE_NORMAL: DMA [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000007fffffff] Normal [mem 0x0000000080000000-0x000000017fffffff] $ cat /sys/devices/system/memory/block_size_bytes 10000000 $ cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory5/valid_zones DMA $ echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory5/online $ cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory5/valid_zones Normal $ echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory5/online Normal $ cat /proc/zoneinfo Node 0, zone DMA spanned 524288 <----- present 458752 managed 455078 start_pfn: 0 <----- Node 0, zone Normal spanned 720896 present 589824 managed 571648 start_pfn: 327680 <----- The reason is that we assume that the default zone for kernel onlining is ZONE_NORMAL. This was a simplification introduced by the memory hotplug rework and it is easily fixable by checking the range overlap in the zone order and considering the first matching zone as the default one. If there is no such zone then assume ZONE_NORMAL as we have been doing so far.

* mm, memory_hotplug: fix MMOP_ONLINE_KEEP behaviorMichal Hocko2017-07-061-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Heiko Carstens has noticed that the MMOP_ONLINE_KEEP is broken currently $ grep . memory3?/valid_zones memory34/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable memory37/valid_zones:Normal Movable $ echo online_movable > memory34/state $ grep . memory3?/valid_zones memory34/valid_zones:Movable memory35/valid_zones:Movable memory36/valid_zones:Movable memory37/valid_zones:Movable $ echo online > memory36/state $ grep . memory3?/valid_zones memory34/valid_zones:Movable memory36/valid_zones:Normal memory37/valid_zones:Movable so we have effectively punched a hole into the movable zone. The problem is that move_pfn_range() check for MMOP_ONLINE_KEEP is wrong. It only checks whether the given range is already part of the movable zone which is not the case here as only memory34 is in the zone. Fix this by using allow_online_pfn_range(..., MMOP_ONLINE_KERNEL) if that is false then we can be sure that movable onlining is the right thing to do.

* mm, memory_hotplug: do not associate hotadded memory to zones until onlineMichal Hocko2017-07-061-79/+122
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current memory hotplug implementation relies on having all the struct pages associate with a zone/node during the physical hotplug phase (arch_add_memory->__add_pages->__add_section->__add_zone). In the vast majority of cases this means that they are added to ZONE_NORMAL. This has been so since 9d99aaa31f59 ("[PATCH] x86_64: Support memory hotadd without sparsemem") and it wasn't a big deal back then because movable onlining didn't exist yet. Much later memory hotplug wanted to (ab)use ZONE_MOVABLE for movable onlining 511c2aba8f07 ("mm, memory-hotplug: dynamic configure movable memory and portion memory") and then things got more complicated. Rather than reconsidering the zone association which was no longer needed (because the memory hotplug already depended on SPARSEMEM) a convoluted semantic of zone shifting has been developed. Only the currently last memblock or the one adjacent to the zone_movable can be onlined movable. This essentially means that the online type changes as the new memblocks are added. Let's simulate memory hot online manually $ echo 0x100000000 > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe $ grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones Normal Movable $ echo $((0x100000000+(128<<20))) > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe $ grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory3?/valid_zones /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable $ echo $((0x100000000+2*(128<<20))) > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe $ grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory3?/valid_zones /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Normal Movable $ echo online_movable > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/state $ grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory3?/valid_zones /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Movable Normal This is an awkward semantic because an udev event is sent as soon as the block is onlined and an udev handler might want to online it based on some policy (e.g. association with a node) but it will inherently race with new blocks showing up. This patch changes the physical online phase to not associate pages with any zone at all. All the pages are just marked reserved and wait for the onlining phase to be associated with the zone as per the online request. There are only two requirements - existing ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_MOVABLE cannot overlap - ZONE_NORMAL precedes ZONE_MOVABLE in physical addresses the latter one is not an inherent requirement and can be changed in the future. It preserves the current behavior and made the code slightly simpler. This is subject to change in future. This means that the same physical online steps as above will lead to the following state: Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Movable Implementation: The current move_pfn_range is reimplemented to check the above requirements (allow_online_pfn_range) and then updates the respective zone (move_pfn_range_to_zone), the pgdat and links all the pages in the pfn range with the zone/node. __add_pages is updated to not require the zone and only initializes sections in the range. This allowed to simplify the arch_add_memory code (s390 could get rid of quite some of code). devm_memremap_pages is the only user of arch_add_memory which relies on the zone association because it only hooks into the memory hotplug only half way. It uses it to associate the new memory with ZONE_DEVICE but doesn't allow it to be {on,off}lined via sysfs. This means that this particular code path has to call move_pfn_range_to_zone explicitly. The original zone shifting code is kept in place and will be removed in the follow up patch for an easier review. Please note that this patch also changes the original behavior when offlining a memory block adjacent to another zone (Normal vs. Movable) used to allow to change its movable type. This will be handled later.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | __pageblock_pfn_to_page has two users currently, set_zone_contiguous which checks whether the given zone contains holes and pageblock_pfn_to_page which then carefully returns a first valid page from the given pfn range for the given zone. This doesn't handle zones which are not fully populated though. Memory pageblocks can be offlined or might not have been onlined yet. In such a case the zone should be considered to have holes otherwise pfn walkers can touch and play with offline pages. Current callers of pageblock_pfn_to_page in compaction seem to work properly right now because they only isolate PageBuddy (isolate_freepages_block) or PageLRU resp. __PageMovable (isolate_migratepages_block) which will be always false for these pages. It would be safer to skip these pages altogether, though. In order to do this patch adds a new memory section state (SECTION_IS_ONLINE) which is set in memory_present (during boot time) or in online_pages_range during the memory hotplug. Similarly offline_mem_sections clears the bit and it is called when the memory range is offlined. pfn_to_online_page helper is then added which check the mem section and only returns a page if it is onlined already. Use the new helper in __pageblock_pfn_to_page and skip the whole page block in such a case.

* mm, memory_hotplug: split up register_one_node()Michal Hocko2017-07-061-1/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Memory hotplug (add_memory_resource) has to reinitialize node infrastructure if the node is offline (one which went through the complete add_memory(); remove_memory() cycle). That involves node registration to the kobj infrastructure (register_node), the proper association with cpus (register_cpu_under_node) and finally creation of node<->memblock symlinks (link_mem_sections). The last part requires to know node_start_pfn and node_spanned_pages which we currently have but a leter patch will postpone this initialization to the onlining phase which happens later. In fact we do not need to rely on the early pgdat initialization even now because the currently hot added pfn range is currently known. Split register_one_node into core which does all the common work for the boot time NUMA initialization and the hotplug (__register_one_node). register_one_node keeps the full initialization while hotplug calls __register_one_node and manually calls link_mem_sections for the proper range. This shouldn't introduce any functional change.

* mm, memory_hotplug: get rid of is_zone_device_sectionMichal Hocko2017-07-061-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Device memory hotplug hooks into regular memory hotplug only half way. It needs memory sections to track struct pages but there is no need/desire to associate those sections with memory blocks and export them to the userspace via sysfs because they cannot be onlined anyway. This is currently expressed by for_device argument to arch_add_memory which then makes sure to associate the given memory range with ZONE_DEVICE. register_new_memory then relies on is_zone_device_section to distinguish special memory hotplug from the regular one. While this works now, later patches in this series want to move __add_zone outside of arch_add_memory path so we have to come up with something else. Add want_memblock down the __add_pages path and use it to control whether the section->memblock association should be done. arch_add_memory then just trivially want memblock for everything but for_device hotplug. remove_memory_section doesn't need is_zone_device_section either. We can simply skip all the memblock specific cleanup if there is no memblock for the given section. This shouldn't introduce any functional change.

Movable onlining is a real hack with many downsides - mainly reintroduction of lowmem/highmem issues we used to have on 32b systems - but it is the only way to make the memory hotremove more reliable which is something that people are asking for. The current semantic of memory movable onlinening is really cumbersome, however. The main reason for this is that the udev driven approach is basically unusable because udev races with the memory probing while only the last memory block or the one adjacent to the existing zone_movable are allowed to be onlined movable. In short the criterion for the successful online_movable changes under udev's feet. A reliable udev approach would require a 2 phase approach where the first successful movable online would have to check all the previous blocks and online them in descending order. This is hard to be considered sane. This patchset aims at making the onlining semantic more usable. First of all it allows to online memory movable as long as it doesn't clash with the existing ZONE_NORMAL. That means that ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_MOVABLE cannot overlap. Currently I preserve the original ordering semantic so the zone always precedes the movable zone but I have plans to remove this restriction in future because it is not really necessary. First 3 patches are cleanups which should be ready to be merged right away (unless I have missed something subtle of course). Patch 4 deals with ZONE_DEVICE dependencies down the __add_pages path. Patch 5 deals with implicit assumptions of register_one_node on pgdat initialization. Patches 6-10 deal with offline holes in the zone for pfn walkers. I hope I got all of them right but people familiar with compaction should double check this. Patch 11 is the core of the change. In order to make it easier to review I have tried it to be as minimalistic as possible and the large code removal is moved to patch 14. Patch 12 is a trivial follow up cleanup. Patch 13 fixes sparse warnings and finally patch 14 removes the unused code. I have tested the patches in kvm: # qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -monitor pty -m 2G,slots=4,maxmem=4G -numa node,mem=1G -numa node,mem=1G ... and then probed the additional memory by (qemu) object_add memory-backend-ram,id=mem1,size=1G (qemu) device_add pc-dimm,id=dimm1,memdev=mem1 Then I have used this simple script to probe the memory block by hand # cat probe_memblock.sh #!/bin/sh BLOCK_NR=$1 # echo $((0x100000000+$BLOCK_NR*(128<<20))) > /sys/devices/system/memory/probe # for i in $(seq 10); do sh probe_memblock.sh $i; done # grep . /sys/devices/system/memory/memory3?/valid_zones 2>/dev/null /sys/devices/system/memory/memory33/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory34/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory35/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory36/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory37/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory38/valid_zones:Normal Movable /sys/devices/system/memory/memory39/valid_zones:Normal Movable The main difference to the original implementation is that all new memblocks can be both online_kernel and online_movable initially because there is no clash obviously.

* mm, vmscan: prevent kswapd sleeping prematurely due to mismatched classzone_idxMel Gorman2017-05-031-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | kswapd is woken to reclaim a node based on a failed allocation request from any eligible zone. Once reclaiming in balance_pgdat(), it will continue reclaiming until there is an eligible zone available for the zone it was woken for. kswapd tracks what zone it was recently woken for in pgdat->kswapd_classzone_idx. If it has not been woken recently, this zone will be 0. However, the decision on whether to sleep is made on kswapd_classzone_idx which is 0 without a recent wakeup request and that classzone does not account for lowmem reserves. This allows kswapd to sleep when a low small zone such as ZONE_DMA is balanced for a GFP_DMA request even if a stream of allocations cannot use that zone. While kswapd may be woken again shortly in the near future there are two consequences -- the pgdat bits that control congestion are cleared prematurely and direct reclaim is more likely as kswapd slept prematurely. This patch flips kswapd_classzone_idx to default to MAX_NR_ZONES (an invalid index) when there has been no recent wakeups. If there are no wakeups, it'll decide whether to sleep based on the highest possible zone available (MAX_NR_ZONES - 1). It then becomes critical that the "pgdat balanced" decisions during reclaim and when deciding to sleep are the same. If there is a mismatch, kswapd can stay awake continually trying to balance tiny zones. simoop was used to evaluate it again. Two of the preparation patches regressed the workload so they are included as the second set of results.

Direct reclaim is reduced but not eliminated. It's worth noting that there are two periods of direct reclaim for this workload. The first is when it switches from preparing the files for the actual test itself. It's a lot of file IO followed by a lot of allocs that reclaims heavily for a brief window. While direct reclaim is lower with clear-v2, it is due to kswapd scanning aggressively and trying to reclaim the world which is not the right thing to do. With the patches applied, there is still direct reclaim but the phase change from "creating work files" to starting multiple threads that allocate a lot of anonymous memory faster than kswapd can reclaim. Scanning/reclaim efficiency is restored by this patch. Page writes from reclaim context are back at 0 which is ideal. Pages immediately reclaimed after IO completes is slightly improved but it is expected this will vary slightly. On UMA, there is almost no change so this is not expected to be a universal win.

* mm: add private lock to serialize memory hotplug operationsHeiko Carstens2017-03-161-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit bfc8c90139eb ("mem-hotplug: implement get/put_online_mems") introduced new functions get/put_online_mems() and mem_hotplug_begin/end() in order to allow similar semantics for memory hotplug like for cpu hotplug. The corresponding functions for cpu hotplug are get/put_online_cpus() and cpu_hotplug_begin/done() for cpu hotplug. The commit however missed to introduce functions that would serialize memory hotplug operations like they are done for cpu hotplug with cpu_maps_update_begin/done(). This basically leaves mem_hotplug.active_writer unprotected and allows concurrent writers to modify it, which may lead to problems as outlined by commit f931ab479dd2 ("mm: fix devm_memremap_pages crash, use mem_hotplug_{begin, done}"). That commit was extended again with commit b5d24fda9c3d ("mm, devm_memremap_pages: hold device_hotplug lock over mem_hotplug_{begin, done}") which serializes memory hotplug operations for some call sites by using the device_hotplug lock. In addition with commit 3fc21924100b ("mm: validate device_hotplug is held for memory hotplug") a sanity check was added to mem_hotplug_begin() to verify that the device_hotplug lock is held. This in turn triggers the following warning on s390: WARNING: CPU: 6 PID: 1 at drivers/base/core.c:643 assert_held_device_hotplug+0x4a/0x58 Call Trace: assert_held_device_hotplug+0x40/0x58) mem_hotplug_begin+0x34/0xc8 add_memory_resource+0x7e/0x1f8 add_memory+0xda/0x130 add_memory_merged+0x15c/0x178 sclp_detect_standby_memory+0x2ae/0x2f8 do_one_initcall+0xa2/0x150 kernel_init_freeable+0x228/0x2d8 kernel_init+0x2a/0x140 kernel_thread_starter+0x6/0xc One possible fix would be to add more lock_device_hotplug() and unlock_device_hotplug() calls around each call site of mem_hotplug_begin/end(). But that would give the device_hotplug lock additional semantics it better should not have (serialize memory hotplug operations). Instead add a new memory_add_remove_lock which has the similar semantics like cpu_add_remove_lock for cpu hotplug. To keep things hopefully a bit easier the lock will be locked and unlocked within the mem_hotplug_begin/end() functions.

* memory-hotplug: use dev_online for memhp_auto_onlineNathan Fontenot2017-02-241-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 31bc3858ea3e ("add automatic onlining policy for the newly added memory") provides the capability to have added memory automatically onlined during add, but this appears to be slightly broken. The current implementation uses walk_memory_range() to call online_memory_block, which uses memory_block_change_state() to online the memory. Instead, we should be calling device_online() for the memory block in online_memory_block(). This would online the memory (the memory bus online routine memory_subsys_online() called from device_online calls memory_block_change_state()) and properly update the device struct offline flag. As a result of the current implementation, attempting to remove a memory block after adding it using auto online fails. This is because doing a remove, for instance echo offline > /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryXXX/state uses device_offline() which checks the dev->offline flag.

But now some of non-lru pages like zsmalloc, virtio-balloon pages also become movable. So we can offline such blocks by using non-lru page migration.

But page->lru list is initialized in reserve_bootmem_region(). So when calling free_pagetable(), the function cannot find the magic number of pages. And free_pagetable() frees the pages by free_reserved_page() not put_page_bootmem(). But if the pages are allocated from bootmem allocator and used as page table, the pages have private flag. So before freeing the pages, we should clear the private flag by put_page_bootmem(). Before applying the commit 7bfec6f47bb0 ("mm, page_alloc: check multiple page fields with a single branch"), we could find the following visible issue: BUG: Bad page state in process kworker/u1024:1 page:ffffea103cfd8040 count:0 mapcount:0 mappi flags: 0x6fffff80000800(private) page dumped because: PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_FREE flag(s) set bad because of flags: 0x800(private) <snip> Call Trace: [...] dump_stack+0x63/0x87 [...] bad_page+0x114/0x130 [...] free_pages_prepare+0x299/0x2d0 [...] free_hot_cold_page+0x31/0x150 [...] __free_pages+0x25/0x30 [...] free_pagetable+0x6f/0xb4 [...] remove_pagetable+0x379/0x7ff [...] vmemmap_free+0x10/0x20 [...] sparse_remove_one_section+0x149/0x180 [...] __remove_pages+0x2e9/0x4f0 [...] arch_remove_memory+0x63/0xc0 [...] remove_memory+0x8c/0xc0 [...] acpi_memory_device_remove+0x79/0xa5 [...] acpi_bus_trim+0x5a/0x8d [...] acpi_bus_trim+0x38/0x8d [...] acpi_device_hotplug+0x1b7/0x418 [...] acpi_hotplug_work_fn+0x1e/0x29 [...] process_one_work+0x152/0x400 [...] worker_thread+0x125/0x4b0 [...] kthread+0xd8/0xf0 [...] ret_from_fork+0x22/0x40 And the issue still silently occurs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Patch series "fix a kernel oops when reading sysfs valid_zones", v2. A sysfs memory file is created for each 2GiB memory block on x86-64 when the system has 64GiB or more memory. [1] When the start address of a memory block is not backed by struct page, i.e. a memory range is not aligned by 2GiB, reading its 'valid_zones' attribute file leads to a kernel oops. This issue was observed on multiple x86-64 systems with more than 64GiB of memory. This patch-set fixes this issue. Patch 1 first fixes an issue in test_pages_in_a_zone(), which does not test the start section. Patch 2 then fixes the kernel oops by extending test_pages_in_a_zone() to return valid [start, end). Note for stable kernels: The memory block size change was made by commit bdee237c0343 ("x86: mm: Use 2GB memory block size on large-memory x86-64 systems"), which was accepted to 3.9. However, this patch-set depends on (and fixes) the change to test_pages_in_a_zone() made by commit 5f0f2887f4de ("mm/memory_hotplug.c: check for missing sections in test_pages_in_a_zone()"), which was accepted to 4.4. So, I recommend that we backport it up to 4.4. [1] 'Commit bdee237c0343 ("x86: mm: Use 2GB memory block size on large-memory x86-64 systems")' This patch (of 2): test_pages_in_a_zone() does not check 'start_pfn' when it is aligned by section since 'sec_end_pfn' is set equal to 'pfn'. Since this function is called for testing the range of a sysfs memory file, 'start_pfn' is always aligned by section. Fix it by properly setting 'sec_end_pfn' to the next section pfn. Also make sure that this function returns 1 only when the range belongs to a zone.

To check that memory zone can be changed, zone_can_shift() is used. Currently the function returns minus integer value, plus integer value and 0. When the function returns minus or plus integer value, it means that the memory zone can be changed to ZONE_{NORNAL|MOVABLE}. But when the function returns 0, there are two meanings. One of the meanings is that the memory zone does not need to be changed. For example, when memory is in ZONE_NORMAL and onlined by online_kernel the memory zone does not need to be changed. Another meaning is that the memory zone cannot be changed. When memory is in ZONE_NORMAL and onlined by online_movable, the memory zone may not be changed to ZONE_MOVALBE due to memory online limitation(see Documentation/memory-hotplug.txt). In this case, memory must not be onlined. The patch changes the return type of zone_can_shift() so that memory online operation fails when memory zone cannot be changed as follows: Before applying patch: # grep -A 35 "Node 2" /proc/zoneinfo Node 2, zone Normal <snip> node_scanned 0 spanned 8388608 present 7864320 managed 7864320 # echo online_movable > memory4097/state # grep -A 35 "Node 2" /proc/zoneinfo Node 2, zone Normal <snip> node_scanned 0 spanned 8388608 present 8388608 managed 8388608 online_movable operation succeeded.

* mm: remove x86-only restriction of movable_nodeReza Arbab2016-12-121-20/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In commit c5320926e370 ("mem-hotplug: introduce movable_node boot option"), the memblock allocation direction is changed to bottom-up and then back to top-down like this: 1. memblock_set_bottom_up(true), called by cmdline_parse_movable_node(). 2. memblock_set_bottom_up(false), called by x86's numa_init(). Even though (1) occurs in generic mm code, it is wrapped by #ifdef CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE, which depends on X86_64. This means that when we extend CONFIG_MOVABLE_NODE to non-x86 arches, things will be unbalanced. (1) will happen for them, but (2) will not. This toggle was added in the first place because x86 has a delay between adding memblocks and marking them as hotpluggable. Since other arches do this marking either immediately or not at all, they do not require the bottom-up toggle. So, resolve things by moving (1) from cmdline_parse_movable_node() to x86's setup_arch(), immediately after the movable_node parameter has been parsed.

* mm: remove unused variable in memory hotplugLinus Torvalds2016-10-271-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When I removed the per-zone bitlock hashed waitqueues in commit 9dcb8b685fc3 ("mm: remove per-zone hashtable of bitlock waitqueues"), I removed all the magic hotplug memory initialization of said waitqueues too. But when I actually _tested_ the resulting build, I stupidly assumed that "allmodconfig" would enable memory hotplug. And it doesn't, because it enables KASAN instead, which then disables hotplug memory support. As a result, my build test of the per-zone waitqueues was totally broken, and I didn't notice that the compiler warns about the now unused iterator variable 'i'. I guess I should be happy that that seems to be the worst breakage from my clearly horribly failed test coverage.

* mm: remove per-zone hashtable of bitlock waitqueuesLinus Torvalds2016-10-271-28/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The per-zone waitqueues exist because of a scalability issue with the page waitqueues on some NUMA machines, but it turns out that they hurt normal loads, and now with the vmalloced stacks they also end up breaking gfs2 that uses a bit_wait on a stack object: wait_on_bit(&gh->gh_iflags, HIF_WAIT, TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE) where 'gh' can be a reference to the local variable 'mount_gh' on the stack of fill_super(). The reason the per-zone hash table breaks for this case is that there is no "zone" for virtual allocations, and trying to look up the physical page to get at it will fail (with a BUG_ON()). It turns out that I actually complained to the mm people about the per-zone hash table for another reason just a month ago: the zone lookup also hurts the regular use of "unlock_page()" a lot, because the zone lookup ends up forcing several unnecessary cache misses and generates horrible code. As part of that earlier discussion, we had a much better solution for the NUMA scalability issue - by just making the page lock have a separate contention bit, the waitqueue doesn't even have to be looked at for the normal case.

* mm/hugetlb: check for reserved hugepages during memory offlineGerald Schaefer2016-10-071-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In dissolve_free_huge_pages(), free hugepages will be dissolved without making sure that there are enough of them left to satisfy hugepage reservations. Fix this by adding a return value to dissolve_free_huge_pages() and checking h->free_huge_pages vs. h->resv_huge_pages. Note that this may lead to the situation where dissolve_free_huge_page() returns an error and all free hugepages that were dissolved before that error are lost, while the memory block still cannot be set offline.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 394e31d2ceb4 ("mem-hotplug: alloc new page from a nearest neighbor node when mem-offline") introduced new_node_page() for memory hotplug. In new_node_page(), the nid is cleared before calling __alloc_pages_nodemask(). But if it is the only node of the system, and the first round allocation fails, it will not be able to get memory from an empty nodemask, and will trigger oom. The patch checks whether it is the last node on the system, and if it is, then don't clear the nid in the nodemask.

* mm, vmscan: move LRU lists to nodeMel Gorman2016-07-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This moves the LRU lists from the zone to the node and related data such as counters, tracing, congestion tracking and writeback tracking. Unfortunately, due to reclaim and compaction retry logic, it is necessary to account for the number of LRU pages on both zone and node logic. Most reclaim logic is based on the node counters but the retry logic uses the zone counters which do not distinguish inactive and active sizes. It would be possible to leave the LRU counters on a per-zone basis but it's a heavier calculation across multiple cache lines that is much more frequent than the retry checks. Other than the LRU counters, this is mostly a mechanical patch but note that it introduces a number of anomalies. For example, the scans are per-zone but using per-node counters. We also mark a node as congested when a zone is congested. This causes weird problems that are fixed later but is easier to review. In the event that there is excessive overhead on 32-bit systems due to the nodes being on LRU then there are two potential solutions 1. Long-term isolation of highmem pages when reclaim is lowmem When pages are skipped, they are immediately added back onto the LRU list. If lowmem reclaim persisted for long periods of time, the same highmem pages get continually scanned. The idea would be that lowmem keeps those pages on a separate list until a reclaim for highmem pages arrives that splices the highmem pages back onto the LRU. It potentially could be implemented similar to the UNEVICTABLE list. That would reduce the skip rate with the potential corner case is that highmem pages have to be scanned and reclaimed to free lowmem slab pages. 2. Linear scan lowmem pages if the initial LRU shrink fails This will break LRU ordering but may be preferable and faster during memory pressure than skipping LRU pages.

Initially I was going to stop there and bring the policy setting logic to userspace. I met two issues on this way: 1) It is possible to have memory hotplugged at boot (e.g. with QEMU). These blocks stay offlined if we turn the onlining policy on by userspace. 2) My attempt to bring this policy setting to systemd failed, systemd maintainers suggest to change the default in kernel or ... to use tmpfiles.d to alter the policy (which looks like a hack to me): https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/2938 Here I suggest to add a config option to set the default value for the policy and a kernel command line parameter to make the override. This patch (of 2): Introduce config option to set the default value for memory hotplug onlining policy (/sys/devices/system/memory/auto_online_blocks). The reason one would want to turn this option on are to have early onlining for hotpluggable memory available at boot and to not require any userspace actions to make memory hotplug work.

* mm: introduce page reference manipulation functionsJoonsoo Kim2016-03-171-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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).

The obvious purpose is to satisfy a (pending or future) high-order allocation, and is easy to evaluate. The other purpose is to keep overal memory fragmentation low and help the anti-fragmentation mechanism. The success wrt the latter purpose is more The current situation wrt the purposes has a few drawbacks: - compaction is invoked only when a high-order page or hugepage is not available (or manually). This might be too late for the purposes of keeping memory fragmentation low. - direct compaction increases latency of allocations. Again, it would be better if compaction was performed asynchronously to keep fragmentation low, before the allocation itself comes. - (a special case of the previous) the cost of compaction during THP page faults can easily offset the benefits of THP. - kswapd compaction appears to be complex, fragile and not working in some scenarios. It could also end up compacting for a high-order allocation request when it should be reclaiming memory for a later order-0 request. To improve the situation, we should be able to benefit from an equivalent of kswapd, but for compaction - i.e. a background thread which responds to fragmentation and the need for high-order allocations (including hugepages) somewhat proactively. One possibility is to extend the responsibilities of kswapd, which could however complicate its design too much. It should be better to let kswapd handle reclaim, as order-0 allocations are often more critical than high-order ones. Another possibility is to extend khugepaged, but this kthread is a single instance and tied to THP configs. This patch goes with the option of a new set of per-node kthreads called kcompactd, and lays the foundations, without introducing any new tunables. The lifecycle mimics kswapd kthreads, including the memory hotplug hooks. For compaction, kcompactd uses the standard compaction_suitable() and ompact_finished() criteria and the deferred compaction functionality. Unlike direct compaction, it uses only sync compaction, as there's no allocation latency to minimize. This patch doesn't yet add a call to wakeup_kcompactd. The kswapd compact/reclaim loop for high-order pages will be replaced by waking up kcompactd in the next patch with the description of what's wrong with the old approach. Waking up of the kcompactd threads is also tied to kswapd activity and follows these rules: - we don't want to affect any fastpaths, so wake up kcompactd only from the slowpath, as it's done for kswapd - if kswapd is doing reclaim, it's more important than compaction, so don't invoke kcompactd until kswapd goes to sleep - the target order used for kswapd is passed to kcompactd Future possible future uses for kcompactd include the ability to wake up kcompactd on demand in special situations, such as when hugepages are not available (currently not done due to __GFP_NO_KSWAPD) or when a fragmentation event (i.e. __rmqueue_fallback()) occurs. It's also possible to perform periodic compaction with kcompactd.

* mm/compaction: speed up pageblock_pfn_to_page() when zone is contiguousJoonsoo Kim2016-03-151-2/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a performance drop report due to hugepage allocation and in there half of cpu time are spent on pageblock_pfn_to_page() in compaction [1]. In that workload, compaction is triggered to make hugepage but most of pageblocks are un-available for compaction due to pageblock type and skip bit so compaction usually fails. Most costly operations in this case is to find valid pageblock while scanning whole zone range. To check if pageblock is valid to compact, valid pfn within pageblock is required and we can obtain it by calling pageblock_pfn_to_page(). This function checks whether pageblock is in a single zone and return valid pfn if possible. Problem is that we need to check it every time before scanning pageblock even if we re-visit it and this turns out to be very expensive in this workload. Although we have no way to skip this pageblock check in the system where hole exists at arbitrary position, we can use cached value for zone continuity and just do pfn_to_page() in the system where hole doesn't exist. This optimization considerably speeds up in above workload. Before vs After Max: 1096 MB/s vs 1325 MB/s Min: 635 MB/s 1015 MB/s Avg: 899 MB/s 1194 MB/s Avg is improved by roughly 30% [2].
