* mm: compaction: introduce sync-light migration for use by compactionMel Gorman2012-01-121-5/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a lightweight sync migrate operation MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT mode that avoids writing back pages to backing storage. Async compaction maps to MIGRATE_ASYNC while sync compaction maps to MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT. For other migrate_pages users such as memory hotplug, MIGRATE_SYNC is used. This avoids sync compaction stalling for an excessive length of time, particularly when copying files to a USB stick where there might be a large number of dirty pages backed by a filesystem that does not support ->writepages.

* mm: compaction: determine if dirty pages can be migrated without blocking ↵Mel Gorman2012-01-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | within ->migratepage Asynchronous compaction is used when allocating transparent hugepages to avoid blocking for long periods of time. Due to reports of stalling, there was a debate on disabling synchronous compaction but this severely impacted allocation success rates. Part of the reason was that many dirty pages are skipped in asynchronous compaction by the following check; if (PageDirty(page) && !sync && mapping->a_ops->migratepage != migrate_page) rc = -EBUSY; This skips over all mapping aops using buffer_migrate_page() even though it is possible to migrate some of these pages without blocking. This patch updates the ->migratepage callback with a "sync" parameter. It is the responsibility of the callback to fail gracefully if migration would block.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | synchronous compaction in the faster path Migration synchronously waits for writeback if the initial passes fails. Callers of memory compaction do not necessarily want this behaviour if the caller is latency sensitive or expects that synchronous migration is not going to have a significantly better success rate. This patch adds a sync parameter to migrate_pages() allowing the caller to indicate if wait_on_page_writeback() is allowed within migration or not. For reclaim/compaction, try_to_compact_pages() is first called asynchronously, direct reclaim runs and then try_to_compact_pages() is called synchronously as there is a greater expectation that it'll succeed.

* mm: compaction: memory compaction coreMel Gorman2010-05-251-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is the core of a mechanism which compacts memory in a zone by relocating movable pages towards the end of the zone. A single compaction run involves a migration scanner and a free scanner. Both scanners operate on pageblock-sized areas in the zone. The migration scanner starts at the bottom of the zone and searches for all movable pages within each area, isolating them onto a private list called migratelist. The free scanner starts at the top of the zone and searches for suitable areas and consumes the free pages within making them available for the migration scanner. The pages isolated for migration are then migrated to the newly isolated free pages.

* ksm: memory hotremove migration onlyHugh Dickins2009-12-151-5/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous patch enables page migration of ksm pages, but that soon gets into trouble: not surprising, since we're using the ksm page lock to lock operations on its stable_node, but page migration switches the page whose lock is to be used for that. Another layer of locking would fix it, but do we need that yet? Do we actually need page migration of ksm pages? Yes, memory hotremove needs to offline sections of memory: and since we stopped allocating ksm pages with GFP_HIGHUSER, they will tend to be GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE candidates for migration. But KSM is currently unconscious of NUMA issues, happily merging pages from different NUMA nodes: at present the rule must be, not to use MADV_MERGEABLE where you care about NUMA. So no, NUMA page migration of ksm pages does not make sense yet. So, to complete support for ksm swapping we need to make hotremove safe. ksm_memory_callback() take ksm_thread_mutex when MEM_GOING_OFFLINE and release it when MEM_OFFLINE or MEM_CANCEL_OFFLINE. But if mapped pages are freed before migration reaches them, stable_nodes may be left still pointing to struct pages which have been removed from the system: the stable_node needs to identify a page by pfn rather than page pointer, then it can safely prune them when MEM_OFFLINE. And make NUMA migration skip PageKsm pages where it skips PageReserved. But it's only when we reach unmap_and_move() that the page lock is taken and we can be sure that raised pagecount has prevented a PageAnon from being upgraded: so add offlining arg to migrate_pages(), to migrate ksm page when offlining (has sufficient locking) but reject it otherwise.

* vmscan: move isolate_lru_page() to vmscan.cNick Piggin2008-10-201-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On large memory systems, the VM can spend way too much time scanning through pages that it cannot (or should not) evict from memory. Not only does it use up CPU time, but it also provokes lock contention and can leave large systems under memory presure in a catatonic state. This patch series improves VM scalability by: 1) putting filesystem backed, swap backed and unevictable pages onto their own LRUs, so the system only scans the pages that it can/should evict from memory 2) switching to two handed clock replacement for the anonymous LRUs, so the number of pages that need to be scanned when the system starts swapping is bound to a reasonable number 3) keeping unevictable pages off the LRU completely, so the VM does not waste CPU time scanning them. ramfs, ramdisk, SHM_LOCKED shared memory segments and mlock()ed VMA pages are keept on the unevictable list. This patch: isolate_lru_page logically belongs to be in vmscan.c than migrate.c. It is tough, because we don't need that function without memory migration so there is a valid argument to have it in migrate.c. However a subsequent patch needs to make use of it in the core mm, so we can happily move it to vmscan.c. Also, make the function a little more generic by not requiring that it adds an isolated page to a given list. Callers can do that. Note that we now have '__isolate_lru_page()', that does something quite different, visible outside of vmscan.c for use with memory controller.

* mm: make CONFIG_MIGRATION available w/o CONFIG_NUMAGerald Schaefer2008-07-241-21/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We'd like to support CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE on s390, which depends on CONFIG_MIGRATION. So far, CONFIG_MIGRATION is only available with NUMA support. This patch makes CONFIG_MIGRATION selectable for architectures that define ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE. When MIGRATION is enabled w/o NUMA, the kernel won't compile because migrate_vmas() does not know about vm_ops->migrate() and vma_migratable() does not know about policy_zone. To fix this, those two functions can be restricted to '#ifdef CONFIG_NUMA' because they are not being used w/o NUMA. vma_migratable() is moved over from migrate.h to mempolicy.h.

* page migration: Only migrate pages if allocation in the highest zone is possibleChristoph Lameter2007-05-071-1/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Address spaces contain an allocation flag that specifies restriction on the zone for pages placed in the mapping. I.e. some device may require pages to be allocated from a DMA zone. Block devices may not be able to use pages from HIGHMEM. Memory policies and the common use of page migration works only on the highest zone. If the address space does not allow allocation from the highest zone then the pages in the address space are not migratable simply because we can only allocate memory for a specified node if we allow allocation for the highest zone on each node.

* [PATCH] page migration: Support a vma migration functionChristoph Lameter2006-06-251-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hooks for calling vma specific migration functions With this patch a vma may define a vma->vm_ops->migrate function. That function may perform page migration on its own (some vmas may not contain page structs and therefore cannot be handled by regular page migration. Pages in a vma may require special preparatory treatment before migration is possible etc) . Only mmap_sem is held when the migration function is called. The migrate() function gets passed two sets of nodemasks describing the source and the target of the migration. The flags parameter either contains MPOL_MF_MOVE which means that only pages used exclusively by the specified mm should be moved or MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL which means that pages shared with other processes should also be moved. The migration function returns 0 on success or an error condition. An error condition will prevent regular page migration from occurring. On its own this patch cannot be included since there are no users for this functionality. But it seems that the uncached allocator will need this functionality at some point.

The nodes array contains the node numbers that the pages should be moved to. If a NULL is passed instead of an array then no pages are moved but the status array is updated.
