This adds four new knobs for the KSM advisor to influence its behaviour.
The knobs are:
- advisor_mode:
none: no advisor (default)
scan-time: scan time advisor
- advisor_max_cpu: 70 (default, cpu usage percent)
- advisor_min_pages_to_scan: 500 (default)
- advisor_max_pages_to_scan: 30000 (default)
- advisor_target_scan_time: 200 (default in seconds)
The new values will take effect on the next scan round.

Patch series "mm/ksm: Add ksm advisor", v5.
What is the KSM advisor?
=========================
The ksm advisor automatically manages the pages_to_scan setting to achieve
a target scan time. The target scan time defines how many seconds it
should take to scan all the candidate KSM pages. In other words the
pages_to_scan rate is changed by the advisor to achieve the target scan
time.
Why do we need a KSM advisor?
==============================
The number of candidate pages for KSM is dynamic. It can often be
observed that during the startup of an application more candidate pages
need to be processed. Without an advisor the pages_to_scan parameter
needs to be sized for the maximum number of candidate pages. With the
scan time advisor the pages_to_scan parameter based can be changed based
on demand.
Algorithm
==========
The algorithm calculates the change value based on the target scan time
and the previous scan time. To avoid pertubations an exponentially
weighted moving average is applied.
The algorithm has a max and min
value to:
- guarantee responsiveness to changes
- to limit CPU resource consumption
Parameters to influence the KSM scan advisor
=============================================
The respective parameters are:
- ksm_advisor_mode
0: None (default), 1: scan time advisor
- ksm_advisor_target_scan_time
how many seconds a scan should of all candidate pages take
- ksm_advisor_max_cpu
upper limit for the cpu usage in percent of the ksmd background thread
The initial value and the max value for the pages_to_scan parameter can
be limited with:
- ksm_advisor_min_pages_to_scan
minimum value for pages_to_scan per batch
- ksm_advisor_max_pages_to_scan
maximum value for pages_to_scan per batch
The default settings for the above two parameters should be suitable for
most workloads.
The parameters are exposed as knobs in /sys/kernel/mm/ksm. By default the
scan time advisor is disabled.
Currently there are two advisors:
- none and
- scan-time.
Resource savings
=================
Tests with various workloads have shown considerable CPU savings. Most
of the workloads I have investigated have more candidate pages during
startup. Once the workload is stable in terms of memory, the number of
candidate pages is reduced. Without the advisor, the pages_to_scan needs
to be sized for the maximum number of candidate pages. So having this
advisor definitely helps in reducing CPU consumption.
For the instagram workload, the advisor achieves a 25% CPU reduction.
Once the memory is stable, the pages_to_scan parameter gets reduced to
about 40% of its max value.
The new advisor works especially well if the smart scan feature is also
enabled.
How is defining a target scan time better?
===========================================
For an administrator it is more logical to set a target scan time.. The
administrator can determine how many pages are scanned on each scan.
Therefore setting a target scan time makes more sense.
In addition the administrator might have a good idea about the memory
sizing of its respective workloads.
Setting cpu limits is easier than setting The pages_to_scan parameter. The
pages_to_scan parameter is per batch. For the administrator it is difficult
to set the pages_to_scan parameter.
Tracing
=======
A new tracing event has been added for the scan time advisor. The new
trace event is called ksm_advisor. It reports the scan time, the new
pages_to_scan setting and the cpu usage of the ksmd background thread.
Other approaches
=================
Approach 1: Adapt pages_to_scan after processing each batch. If KSM
merges pages, increase the scan rate, if less KSM pages, reduce the
the pages_to_scan rate. This doesn't work too well. While it increases
the pages_to_scan for a short period, but generally it ends up with a
too low pages_to_scan rate.
Approach 2: Adapt pages_to_scan after each scan. The problem with that
approach is that the calculated scan rate tends to be high. The more
aggressive KSM scans, the more pages it can de-duplicate.
There have been earlier attempts at an advisor:
propose auto-run mode of ksm and its tests
(https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=166029880214485&w=2)
This patch (of 5):
This adds the ksm advisor. The ksm advisor automatically manages the
pages_to_scan setting to achieve a target scan time. The target scan time
defines how many seconds it should take to scan all the candidate KSM
pages. In other words the pages_to_scan rate is changed by the advisor to
achieve the target scan time. The algorithm has a max and min value to:
- guarantee responsiveness to changes
- limit CPU resource consumption
The respective parameters are:
- ksm_advisor_target_scan_time (how many seconds a scan should take)
- ksm_advisor_max_cpu (maximum value for cpu percent usage)
- ksm_advisor_min_pages (minimum value for pages_to_scan per batch)
- ksm_advisor_max_pages (maximum value for pages_to_scan per batch)
The algorithm calculates the change value based on the target scan time
and the previous scan time. To avoid pertubations an exponentially
weighted moving average is applied.
The advisor is managed by two main parameters: target scan time,
cpu max time for the ksmd background thread. These parameters determine
how aggresive ksmd scans.
In addition there are min and max values for the pages_to_scan parameter
to make sure that its initial and max values are not set too low or too
high. This ensures that it is able to react to changes quickly enough.
The default values are:
- target scan time: 200 secs
- max cpu: 70%
- min pages: 500
- max pages: 30000
By default the advisor is disabled. Currently there are two advisors:
none and scan-time.
Tests with various workloads have shown considerable CPU savings. Most of
the workloads I have investigated have more candidate pages during
startup, once the workload is stable in terms of memory, the number of

destination buffer while checking the contents of both after the move.
After the operation the content of the destination buffer should match the
original source buffer's content while the source buffer should be zeroed.
Separate tests are designed for PMD aligned and unaligned cases because
they utilize different code paths in the kernel.

uffd_test_ctx_clear() is being called from uffd_test_ctx_init() to unmap
areas used in the previous test run. This approach is problematic because
while unmapping areas uffd_test_ctx_clear() uses page_size and nr_pages
which might differ from one test run to another. Fix this by calling
uffd_test_ctx_clear() after each test is done.

Implement the uABI of UFFDIO_MOVE ioctl.
UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application
needs pages to be allocated [1]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are
available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap
compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy
(done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the
userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to
the kernel [2].
We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in the compacting
thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs. UFFDIO_COPY. This was
measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap compaction implementation
using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses by application threads).
More details of the usecase are explained in [2]. Furthermore,
UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without touching them within
the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap, however it forces
splitting the vma.

Update for the ioctl_userfaultfd(2) manpage:
UFFDIO_MOVE
(Since Linux xxx) Move a continuous memory chunk into the
userfault registered range and optionally wake up the blocked
thread. The source and destination addresses and the number of
bytes to move are specified by the src, dst, and len fields of
the uffdio_move structure pointed to by argp:
struct uffdio_move {
__u64 dst; /* Destination of move */
__u64 src; /* Source of move */
__u64 len; /* Number of bytes to move */
__u64 mode; /* Flags controlling behavior of move */
__s64 move; /* Number of bytes moved, or negated error */
};
The following value may be bitwise ORed in mode to change the
behavior of the UFFDIO_MOVE operation:
UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_DONTWAKE
Do not wake up the thread that waits for page-fault
resolution
UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES
Allow holes in the source virtual range that is being moved.
When not specified, the holes will result in ENOENT error.
When specified, the holes will be accounted as successfully
moved memory. This is mostly useful to move hugepage aligned
virtual regions without knowing if there are transparent
hugepages in the regions or not, but preventing the risk of
having to split the hugepage during the operation.
The move field is used by the kernel to return the number of
bytes that was actually moved, or an error (a negated errno-
style value). If the value returned in move doesn't match the
value that was specified in len, the operation fails with the
error EAGAIN. The move field is output-only; it is not read by
the UFFDIO_MOVE operation.
The operation may fail for various reasons. Usually, remapping of
pages that are not exclusive to the given process fail; once KSM
might deduplicate pages or fork() COW-shares pages during fork()
with child processes, they are no longer exclusive. Further, the
kernel might only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether
the pages are exclusive, and return -EBUSY in case that check fails.
To make the operation more likely to succeed, KSM should be
disabled, fork() should be avoided or MADV_DONTFORK should be
configured for the source VMA before fork().
This ioctl(2) operation returns 0 on success. In this case, the
entire area was moved. On error, -1 is returned and errno is
set to indicate the error. Possible errors include:
EAGAIN The number of bytes moved (i.e., the value returned in
the move field) does not equal the value that was
specified in the len field.
EINVAL Either dst or len was not a multiple of the system page
size, or the range specified by src and len or dst and len
was invalid.
EINVAL An invalid bit was specified in the mode field.
ENOENT
The source virtual memory range has unmapped holes and
UFFDIO_MOVE_MODE_ALLOW_SRC_HOLES is not set.
EEXIST
The destination virtual memory range is fully or partially
mapped.
EBUSY
The pages in the source virtual memory range are either
pinned or not exclusive to the process. The kernel might
only perform lightweight checks for detecting whether the
pages are exclusive. To make the operation more likely to
succeed, KSM should be disabled, fork() should be avoided
or MADV_DONTFORK should be configured for the source virtual
memory area before fork().
ENOMEM Allocating memory needed for the operation failed.
ESRCH
The target process has exited at the time of a UFFDIO_MOVE
operation.

Patch series "userfaultfd move option", v6.
This patch series introduces UFFDIO_MOVE feature to userfaultfd, which has
long been implemented and maintained by Andrea in his local tree [1], but
was not upstreamed due to lack of use cases where this approach would be
better than allocating a new page and copying the contents. Previous
upstraming attempts could be found at [6] and [7].
UFFDIO_COPY performs ~20% better than UFFDIO_MOVE when the application
needs pages to be allocated [2]. However, with UFFDIO_MOVE, if pages are
available (in userspace) for recycling, as is usually the case in heap
compaction algorithms, then we can avoid the page allocation and memcpy
(done by UFFDIO_COPY). Also, since the pages are recycled in the
userspace, we avoid the need to release (via madvise) the pages back to
the kernel [3]. We see over 40% reduction (on a Google pixel 6 device) in
the compacting thread's completion time by using UFFDIO_MOVE vs.
UFFDIO_COPY. This was measured using a benchmark that emulates a heap
compaction implementation using userfaultfd (to allow concurrent accesses
by application threads). More details of the usecase are explained in
[3].
Furthermore, UFFDIO_MOVE enables moving swapped-out pages without
touching them within the same vma. Today, it can only be done by mremap,
however it forces splitting the vma.
TODOs for follow-up improvements:
- cross-mm support. Known differences from single-mm and missing pieces:
- memcg recharging (might need to isolate pages in the process)
- mm counters
- cross-mm deposit table moves
- cross-mm test
- document the address space where src and dest reside in struct
uffdio_move
- TLB flush batching. Will require extensive changes to PTL locking in
move_pages_pte(). OTOH that might let us reuse parts of mremap code.
This patch (of 5):
For now, folio_move_anon_rmap() was only used to move a folio to a
different anon_vma after fork(), whereby the root anon_vma stayed
unchanged. For that, it was sufficient to hold the folio lock when
calling folio_move_anon_rmap().
However, we want to make use of folio_move_anon_rmap() to move folios
between VMAs that have a different root anon_vma. As folio_referenced()
performs an RMAP walk without holding the folio lock but only holding the
anon_vma in read mode, holding the folio lock is insufficient.
When moving to an anon_vma with a different root anon_vma, we'll have to
hold both, the folio lock and the anon_vma lock in write mode.
Consequently, whenever we succeeded in folio_lock_anon_vma_read() to
read-lock the anon_vma, we have to re-check if the mapping was changed in
the meantime. If that was the case, we have to retry.
Note that folio_move_anon_rmap() must only be called if the anon page is
exclusive to a process, and must not be called on KSM folios.
This is a preparation for UFFDIO_MOVE, which will hold the folio lock, the
anon_vma lock in write mode, and the mmap_lock in read mode.

Both __block_write_full_folio() and block_read_full_folio() assumed that
block size <= PAGE_SIZE. Replace the shift with a divide, which is
probably cheaper than first calculating the shift. That lets us remove
block_size_bits() as these were the last callers.

When __block_write_begin_int() was converted to support folios, we did not
expect large folios to be passed to it. With the current work to support
large block size storage devices, this will no longer be true so change
the checks on 'from' and 'to' to be related to the size of the folio
instead of PAGE_SIZE. Also remove an assumption that the block size is
smaller than PAGE_SIZE.

If i_blkbits is larger than PAGE_SHIFT, we shift by a negative number,
which is undefined. It is safe to shift the block left as a block device
must be smaller than MAX_LFS_FILESIZE, which is guaranteed to fit in
loff_t.

kmap() has been deprecated in favor of kmap_local_page().
Therefore, replace kmap() with kmap_local_page() in mm/memory.c.
There are two main problems with kmap(): (1) It comes with an overhead as
the mapping space is restricted and protected by a global lock for
synchronization and (2) it also requires global TLB invalidation when the
kmap's pool wraps and it might block when the mapping space is fully
utilized until a slot becomes available.
With kmap_local_page() the mappings are per thread, CPU local, can take
page-faults, and can be called from any context (including interrupts).
It is faster than kmap() in kernels with HIGHMEM enabled. The tasks can
be preempted and, when they are scheduled to run again, the kernel virtual
addresses are restored and still valid.
Obviously, thread locality implies that the kernel virtual addresses
returned by kmap_local_page() are only valid in the context of the callers
(i.e., they cannot be handed to other threads).
The use of kmap_local_page() in mm/memory.c does not break the
above-mentioned assumption, so it is allowed and preferred.

functionality. The test starts a program of artificial access pattern,
monitor the access pattern using DAMON, and check if DAMON finds expected
amount of hot data region (working set size) with only acceptable error
rate.
Note that the acceptable error rate is set with only naive assumptions and
small number of tests. Hence failures of the test may not always mean
DAMON is broken. Rather than that, those could be a signal to better
understand the real accuracy level of DAMON in wider environments. Based
on further finding, we could optimize DAMON or adjust the expectation of

Patch series "selftests/damon: add Python-written DAMON functionality
tests", v2.
DAMON exports most of its functionality via its sysfs interface. Hence
most DAMON functionality tests could be implemented using the interface.
However, because the interfaces require simple but multiple operations for
many controls, writing all such tests from the scratch could be repetitive
and time consuming.
Implement a minimum DAMON sysfs control module, and a couple of DAMON
functionality tests using the control module. The first test is for
ensuring minimum accuracy of data access monitoring, and the second test
is for finding if a previously found and fixed bug is introduced again.
Note that the DAMON sysfs control module is only for avoiding duplicating
code in tests. For convenient and general control of DAMON, users should
use DAMON user-space tools that developed for the purpose, such as
damo[1].

Patches Sequence
----------------
This patchset is constructed with five patches. The first three patches
implement a Python-written test implementation-purpose DAMON sysfs control
module. The implementation is incrementally done in the sequence of the
basic data structure (first patch) first, kdamonds start command (second
patch) next, and finally DAMOS tried bytes update command (third patch).
Then two patches for implementing selftests using the module follows. The
fourth patch implements a basic functionality test of DAMON for working
set estimation accuracy. Finally, the fifth patch implements a corner
case test for a previously found bug.
This patch (of 5):
Implement a python module for DAMON sysfs controls. The module is aimed
to be useful for writing DAMON functionality tests in future.
Nonetheless, this module is only representing a subset of DAMON sysfs
files. Following commits will implement more DAMON sysfs controls.

like to reuse this logic to also test those smaller THP sizes. So let's

The `collapse_max_ptes_none` test was previously failing when a THP size
less than PMD-size had enabled="always". The root cause is because the
test faults in 1 page less than the threshold it set for collapsing. But
when THP is enabled always, we "over allocate" and therefore the threshold
is passed, and collapse unexpectedly succeeds.
Solve this by enlightening khugepaged selftest. Add a command line option
to pass in the desired THP size that should be used for all anonymous
allocations. The harness will then explicitly configure a THP size as
requested and modify the `collapse_max_ptes_none` test so that it faults
in the threshold minus the number of pages in the configured THP size. If
no command line option is provided, default to order 0, as per previous
behaviour.
I chose to use an order in the command line interface, since this makes
the interface agnostic of base page size, making it easier to invoke from
run_vmtests.sh.

Since the number of per-size directories is not fixed, solve this as
simply as possible by catering for a maximum number in the thp_settings

changed to 0 so that all of these new settings default to THP_NEVER and
the user only needs to fill in the ones they want to enable.

Previously, the saved thp settings would be restored upon a signal or at
the natural end of the test suite. But there are some tests that directly
call exit() upon failure. In this case, the thp settings were not being
restored, which could then influence other tests.
Fix this by installing an atexit() handler to do the actual restore. The
signal handler can now just call exit() and the atexit handler is invoked.
