Kirill A. Shutemov 5e0a760b44 mm, treewide: rename MAX_ORDER to MAX_PAGE_ORDER
commit 23baf831a3 ("mm, treewide: redefine MAX_ORDER sanely") has
changed the definition of MAX_ORDER to be inclusive.  This has caused
issues with code that was not yet upstream and depended on the previous
definition.

To draw attention to the altered meaning of the define, rename MAX_ORDER
to MAX_PAGE_ORDER.

Kirill A. Shutemov fd37721803 mm, treewide: introduce NR_PAGE_ORDERS
NR_PAGE_ORDERS defines the number of page orders supported by the page
allocator, ranging from 0 to MAX_ORDER, MAX_ORDER + 1 in total.

NR_PAGE_ORDERS assists in defining arrays of page orders and allows for
more natural iteration over them.

Andrey Konovalov 5cb6674b69 mm, kasan: use KASAN_TAG_KERNEL instead of 0xff
Use the KASAN_TAG_KERNEL marco instead of open-coding 0xff in the mm code.
This macro is provided by include/linux/kasan-tags.h, which does not
include any other headers, so it's safe to include it into mm.h without
causing circular include dependencies.

Charan Teja Kalla ac3f3b0a55 mm: page_alloc: unreserve highatomic page blocks before oom
__alloc_pages_direct_reclaim() is called from slowpath allocation where
high atomic reserves can be unreserved after there is a progress in
reclaim and yet no suitable page is found.  Later should_reclaim_retry()
gets called from slow path allocation to decide if the reclaim needs to be
retried before OOM kill path is taken.

should_reclaim_retry() checks the available(reclaimable + free pages)
memory against the min wmark levels of a zone and returns:

a) true, if it is above the min wmark so that slow path allocation will
   do the reclaim retries.

b) false, thus slowpath allocation takes oom kill path.

should_reclaim_retry() can also unreserves the high atomic reserves **but
only after all the reclaim retries are exhausted.**

In a case where there are almost none reclaimable memory and free pages
contains mostly the high atomic reserves but allocation context can't use
these high atomic reserves, makes the available memory below min wmark
levels hence false is returned from should_reclaim_retry() leading the
allocation request to take OOM kill path.  This can turn into a early oom
kill if high atomic reserves are holding lot of free memory and
unreserving of them is not attempted.

(early)OOM is encountered on a VM with the below state:
[  295.998653] Normal free:7728kB boost:0kB min:804kB low:1004kB

0*4096kB = 7752kB

Per above log, the free memory of ~7MB exist in the high atomic reserves
is not freed up before falling back to oom kill path.

Fix it by trying to unreserve the high atomic reserves in
should_reclaim_retry() before __alloc_pages_direct_reclaim() can fallback
to oom kill path.

Charan Teja Kalla 9cd20f3fe0 mm: page_alloc: enforce minimum zone size to do high atomic reserves
Highatomic reserves are set to roughly 1% of zone for maximum and a
pageblock size for minimum.  Encountered a system with the below
configuration:
Normal free:7728kB boost:0kB min:804kB low:1004kB high:1204kB
reserved_highatomic:8192KB managed:49224kB

On such systems, even a single pageblock makes highatomic reserves are set
to ~8% of the zone memory.  This high value can easily exert pressure on
the zone.

Per discussion with Michal and Mel, it is not much useful to reserve the
memory for highatomic allocations on such small systems[1].  Since the
minimum size for high atomic reserves is always going to be a pageblock
size and if 1% of zone managed pages is going to be below pageblock size,
don't reserve memory for high atomic allocations.  Thanks Michal for this
suggestion[2].

Since no memory is being reserved for high atomic allocations and if
respective allocation failures are seen, this patch can be reverted.

Charan Teja Kalla d68e39fc45 mm: page_alloc: correct high atomic reserve calculations
Patch series "mm: page_alloc: fixes for high atomic reserve
caluculations", v3.

The state of the system where the issue exposed shown in oom kill logs:

[  295.998653] Normal free:7728kB boost:0kB min:804kB low:1004kB high:1204kB reserved_highatomic:8192KB active_anon:4kB inactive_anon:0kB active_file:24kB inactive_file:24kB unevictable:1220kB writepending:0kB present:70732kB managed:49224kB mlocked:0kB bounce:0kB free_pcp:688kBlocal_pcp:492kB free_cma:0kB

From the above, it is seen that ~16MB of memory reserved for high atomic
reserves against the expectation of 1% reserves which is fixed in the 1st
patch.

Don't reserve the high atomic page blocks if 1% of zone memory size is
below a pageblock size.


This patch (of 2):

reserve_highatomic_pageblock() aims to reserve the 1% of the managed pages
of a zone, which is used for the high order atomic allocations.

It uses the below calculation to reserve:
static void reserve_highatomic_pageblock(struct page *page, ....) {

   .......
   max_managed = (zone_managed_pages(zone) / 100) + pageblock_nr_pages;

   if (zone->nr_reserved_highatomic >= max_managed)
       goto out;

   zone->nr_reserved_highatomic += pageblock_nr_pages;
   set_pageblock_migratetype(page, MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC);
   move_freepages_block(zone, page, MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC, NULL);

out:
   ....
}

Since we are always appending the 1% of zone managed pages count to
pageblock_nr_pages, the minimum it is turning into 2 pageblocks as the
nr_reserved_highatomic is incremented/decremented in pageblock sizes.

Encountered a system(actually a VM running on the Linux kernel) with the
below zone configuration:
Normal free:7728kB boost:0kB min:804kB low:1004kB high:1204kB
reserved_highatomic:8192KB managed:49224kB

The existing calculations making it to reserve the 8MB(with pageblock size
of 4MB) i.e.  16% of the zone managed memory.  Reserving such high amount
of memory can easily exert memory pressure in the system thus may lead
into unnecessary reclaims till unreserving of high atomic reserves.

Since high atomic reserves are managed in pageblock size granules, as
MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC is set for such pageblock, fix the calculations for
high atomic reserves as, minimum is pageblock size , maximum is
approximately 1% of the zone managed pages.

Hyesoo Yu 76f26535d1 mm: page_alloc: check the order of compound page even when the order is zero
For compound pages, the head sets the PG_head flag and the tail sets the
compound_head to indicate the head page.  If a user allocates a compound
page and frees it with a different order, the compound page information
will not be properly initialized.  To detect this problem,
compound_order(page) and the order argument are compared, but this is not
checked when the order argument is zero.  That error should be checked
regardless of the order.

Qi Zheng c2baef394a mm: page_alloc: skip memoryless nodes entirely
Patch series "handle memoryless nodes more appropriately", v3.

Currently, in the process of initialization or offline memory, memoryless
nodes will still be built into the fallback list of itself or other nodes.

This is not what we expected, so this patch series removes memoryless
nodes from the fallback list entirely.


This patch (of 2):

In find_next_best_node(), we skipped the memoryless nodes when building
the zonelists of other normal nodes (N_NORMAL), but did not skip the
memoryless node itself when building the zonelist.  This will cause it to
be traversed at runtime.

For example, say we have node0 and node1, node0 is memoryless
node, then the fallback order of node0 and node1 as follows:

[    0.153005] Fallback order for Node 0: 0 1
[    0.153564] Fallback order for Node 1: 1

After this patch, we skip memoryless node0 entirely, then
the fallback order of node0 and node1 as follows:

[    0.155236] Fallback order for Node 0: 1
[    0.155806] Fallback order for Node 1: 1

So it becomes completely invisible, which will reduce runtime
overhead.

And in this way, we will not try to allocate pages from memoryless node0,
then the panic mentioned in [1] will also be fixed.  Even though this
problem has been solved by dropping the NODE_MIN_SIZE constrain in x86
[2], it would be better to fix it in core MM as well.

Huang Ying 6ccdcb6d3a mm, pcp: reduce detecting time of consecutive high order page freeing
In current PCP auto-tuning design, if the number of pages allocated is
much more than that of pages freed on a CPU, the PCP high may become the
maximal value even if the allocating/freeing depth is small, for example,
in the sender of network workloads.  If a CPU was used as sender
originally, then it is used as receiver after context switching, we need
to fill the whole PCP with maximal high before triggering PCP draining for
consecutive high order freeing.  This will hurt the performance of some
network workloads.

To solve the issue, in this patch, we will track the consecutive page
freeing with a counter in stead of relying on PCP draining.  So, we can
detect consecutive page freeing much earlier.

On a 2-socket Intel server with 128 logical CPU, we tested
SCTP_STREAM_MANY test case of netperf test suite with 64-pair processes. 
With the patch, the network bandwidth improves 5.0%.  This restores the
performance drop caused by PCP auto-tuning.

Huang Ying 57c0419c5f mm, pcp: decrease PCP high if free pages < high watermark
One target of PCP is to minimize pages in PCP if the system free pages is
too few.  To reach that target, when page reclaiming is active for the
zone (ZONE_RECLAIM_ACTIVE), we will stop increasing PCP high in allocating
path, decrease PCP high and free some pages in freeing path.  But this may
be too late because the background page reclaiming may introduce latency
for some workloads.  So, in this patch, during page allocation we will
detect whether the number of free pages of the zone is below high
watermark.  If so, we will stop increasing PCP high in allocating path,
decrease PCP high and free some pages in freeing path.  With this, we can
reduce the possibility of the premature background page reclaiming caused
by too large PCP.

The high watermark checking is done in allocating path to reduce the
overhead in hotter freeing path.

Huang Ying 51a755c56d mm: tune PCP high automatically
The target to tune PCP high automatically is as follows,

- Minimize allocation/freeing from/to shared zone

- Minimize idle pages in PCP

- Minimize pages in PCP if the system free pages is too few

To reach these target, a tuning algorithm as follows is designed,

- When we refill PCP via allocating from the zone, increase PCP high.
  Because if we had larger PCP, we could avoid to allocate from the
  zone.

- In periodic vmstat updating kworker (via refresh_cpu_vm_stats()),
  decrease PCP high to try to free possible idle PCP pages.

- When page reclaiming is active for the zone, stop increasing PCP
  high in allocating path, decrease PCP high and free some pages in
  freeing path.

So, the PCP high can be tuned to the page allocating/freeing depth of
workloads eventually.

One issue of the algorithm is that if the number of pages allocated is
much more than that of pages freed on a CPU, the PCP high may become the
maximal value even if the allocating/freeing depth is small.  But this
isn't a severe issue, because there are no idle pages in this case.

One alternative choice is to increase PCP high when we drain PCP via
trying to free pages to the zone, but don't increase PCP high during PCP
refilling.  This can avoid the issue above.  But if the number of pages
allocated is much less than that of pages freed on a CPU, there will be
many idle pages in PCP and it is hard to free these idle pages.

1/8 (>> 3) of PCP high will be decreased periodically.  The value 1/8 is
kind of arbitrary.  Just to make sure that the idle PCP pages will be
freed eventually.

On a 2-socket Intel server with 224 logical CPU, we run 8 kbuild instances
in parallel (each with `make -j 28`) in 8 cgroup.  This simulates the
kbuild server that is used by 0-Day kbuild service.  With the patch, the
build time decreases 3.5%.  The cycles% of the spinlock contention (mostly
for zone lock) decreases from 11.0% to 0.5%.  The number of PCP draining
for high order pages freeing (free_high) decreases 65.6%.  The number of
pages allocated from zone (instead of from PCP) decreases 83.9%.

Huang Ying 90b41691b9 mm: add framework for PCP high auto-tuning
The page allocation performance requirements of different workloads are
usually different.  So, we need to tune PCP (per-CPU pageset) high to
optimize the workload page allocation performance.  Now, we have a system
wide sysctl knob (percpu_pagelist_high_fraction) to tune PCP high by hand.
But, it's hard to find out the best value by hand.  And one global
configuration may not work best for the different workloads that run on
the same system.  One solution to these issues is to tune PCP high of each
CPU automatically.

This patch adds the framework for PCP high auto-tuning.  With it,
pcp->high of each CPU will be changed automatically by tuning algorithm at
runtime.  The minimal high (pcp->high_min) is the original PCP high value
calculated based on the low watermark pages.  While the maximal high
(pcp->high_max) is the PCP high value when percpu_pagelist_high_fraction
sysctl knob is set to MIN_PERCPU_PAGELIST_HIGH_FRACTION.  That is, the
maximal pcp->high that can be set via sysctl knob by hand.

It's possible that PCP high auto-tuning doesn't work well for some
workloads.  So, when PCP high is tuned by hand via the sysctl knob, the
auto-tuning will be disabled.  The PCP high set by hand will be used
instead.

This patch only adds the framework, so pcp->high will be set to
pcp->high_min (original default) always.  We will add actual auto-tuning
algorithm in the following patches in the series.

Huang Ying c0a242394c mm, page_alloc: scale the number of pages that are batch allocated
When a task is allocating a large number of order-0 pages, it may acquire
the zone->lock multiple times allocating pages in batches.  This may
unnecessarily contend on the zone lock when allocating very large number
of pages.  This patch adapts the size of the batch based on the recent
pattern to scale the batch size for subsequent allocations.

On a 2-socket Intel server with 224 logical CPU, we run 8 kbuild instances
in parallel (each with `make -j 28`) in 8 cgroup.  This simulates the
kbuild server that is used by 0-Day kbuild service.  With the patch, the
cycles% of the spinlock contention (mostly for zone lock) decreases from
12.6% to 11.0% (with PCP size == 367).

Huang Ying 52166607ec mm: restrict the pcp batch scale factor to avoid too long latency
In page allocator, PCP (Per-CPU Pageset) is refilled and drained in
batches to increase page allocation throughput, reduce page
allocation/freeing latency per page, and reduce zone lock contention.  But
too large batch size will cause too long maximal allocation/freeing
latency, which may punish arbitrary users.  So the default batch size is
chosen carefully (in zone_batchsize(), the value is 63 for zone > 1GB) to
avoid that.

In commit 3b12e7e979 ("mm/page_alloc: scale the number of pages that are
batch freed"), the batch size will be scaled for large number of page
freeing to improve page freeing performance and reduce zone lock
contention.  Similar optimization can be used for large number of pages
allocation too.

To find out a suitable max batch scale factor (that is, max effective
batch size), some tests and measurement on some machines were done as
follows.

A set of debug patches are implemented as follows,

- Set PCP high to be 2 * batch to reduce the effect of PCP high

- Disable free batch size scaling to get the raw performance.

- The code with zone lock held is extracted from rmqueue_bulk() and
  free_pcppages_bulk() to 2 separate functions to make it easy to
  measure the function run time with ftrace function_graph tracer.

- The batch size is hard coded to be 63 (default), 127, 255, 511,
  1023, 2047, 4095.

Then will-it-scale/page_fault1 is used to generate the page
allocation/freeing workload.  The page allocation/freeing throughput
(page/s) is measured via will-it-scale.  The page allocation/freeing
average latency (alloc/free latency avg, in us) and allocation/freeing
latency at 99 percentile (alloc/free latency 99%, in us) are measured with
ftrace function_graph tracer.

The test results are as follows,

From the above data, to restrict the allocation/freeing latency to be less
than 100 us in most times, the max batch scale factor needs to be less
than or equal to 5.

Although it is reasonable to use 5 as max batch scale factor for the
systems tested, there are also slower systems.  Where smaller value should
be used to constrain the page allocation/freeing latency.

So, in this patch, a new kconfig option (PCP_BATCH_SCALE_MAX) is added to
set the max batch scale factor.  Whose default value is 5, and users can
reduce it when necessary.

Huang Ying 362d37a106 mm, pcp: reduce lock contention for draining high-order pages
In commit f26b3fa046 ("mm/page_alloc: limit number of high-order pages
on PCP during bulk free"), the PCP (Per-CPU Pageset) will be drained when
PCP is mostly used for high-order pages freeing to improve the cache-hot
pages reusing between page allocating and freeing CPUs.

On system with small per-CPU data cache slice, pages shouldn't be cached
before draining to guarantee cache-hot.  But on a system with large
per-CPU data cache slice, some pages can be cached before draining to
reduce zone lock contention.

So, in this patch, instead of draining without any caching, "pcp->batch"
pages will be cached in PCP before draining if the size of the per-CPU
data cache slice is more than "3 * batch".

In theory, if the size of per-CPU data cache slice is more than "2 *
batch", we can reuse cache-hot pages between CPUs.  But considering the
other usage of cache (code, other data accessing, etc.), "3 * batch" is
used.

Note: "3 * batch" is chosen to make sure the optimization works on recent
x86_64 server CPUs.  If you want to increase it, please check whether it
breaks the optimization.

On a 2-socket Intel server with 128 logical CPU, with the patch, the
network bandwidth of the UNIX (AF_UNIX) test case of lmbench test suite
with 16-pair processes increase 70.5%.  The cycles% of the spinlock
contention (mostly for zone lock) decreases from 46.1% to 21.3%.  The
number of PCP draining for high order pages freeing (free_high) decreases
89.9%.  The cache miss rate keeps 0.2%.

Huang Ying ca71fe1ad9 mm, pcp: avoid to drain PCP when process exit
Patch series "mm: PCP high auto-tuning", v3.

The page allocation performance requirements of different workloads are
often different.  So, we need to tune the PCP (Per-CPU Pageset) high on
each CPU automatically to optimize the page allocation performance.

The list of patches in series is as follows,

[1/9] mm, pcp: avoid to drain PCP when process exit
[2/9] cacheinfo: calculate per-CPU data cache size
[3/9] mm, pcp: reduce lock contention for draining high-order pages
[4/9] mm: restrict the pcp batch scale factor to avoid too long latency
[5/9] mm, page_alloc: scale the number of pages that are batch allocated
[6/9] mm: add framework for PCP high auto-tuning
[7/9] mm: tune PCP high automatically
[8/9] mm, pcp: decrease PCP high if free pages < high watermark
[9/9] mm, pcp: reduce detecting time of consecutive high order page freeing

Patch [1/9], [2/9], [3/9] optimize the PCP draining for consecutive
high-order pages freeing.

Patch [4/9], [5/9] optimize batch freeing and allocating.

Patch [6/9], [7/9], [8/9] implement and optimize a PCP high
auto-tuning method.

Patch [9/9] optimize the PCP draining for consecutive high order page
freeing based on PCP high auto-tuning.

The test results for patches with performance impact are as follows,

kbuild
======

On a 2-socket Intel server with 224 logical CPU, we run 8 kbuild instances
in parallel (each with `make -j 28`) in 8 cgroup.  This simulates the
kbuild server that is used by 0-Day kbuild service.

	build time   lock contend%	free_high	alloc_zone
	----------	----------	---------	----------

patch9	      95.0	       1.0	      8.8	      20.0

The PCP draining optimization (patch [1/9], [3/9]) and PCP batch
allocation optimization (patch [5/9]) reduces zone lock contention a
little.  The PCP high auto-tuning (patch [7/9], [9/9]) reduces build time
visibly.  Where the tuning target: the number of pages allocated from zone
reduces greatly.  So, the zone contention cycles% reduces greatly.

With PCP tuning patches (patch [7/9], [9/9]), the average used memory
during test increases up to 18.4% because more pages are cached in PCP. 
But at the end of the test, the number of the used memory decreases to the
same level as that of the base patch.  That is, the pages cached in PCP
will be released to zone after not being used actively.

netperf SCTP_STREAM_MANY
========================

On a 2-socket Intel server with 128 logical CPU, we tested
SCTP_STREAM_MANY test case of netperf test suite with 64-pair processes.

patch9	     108.6	       1.3	     13.7	     108.6		 1.3

The PCP draining optimization (patch [1/9]+[3/9]) improves performance. 
The PCP high auto-tuning (patch [7/9]) reduces performance a little
because PCP draining cannot be triggered in time sometimes.  So, the cache
miss rate% increases.  The further PCP draining optimization (patch [9/9])
based on PCP tuning restore the performance.

lmbench3 UNIX (AF_UNIX)
=======================

On a 2-socket Intel server with 128 logical CPU, we tested UNIX
(AF_UNIX socket) test case of lmbench3 test suite with 16-pair
processes.

The PCP draining optimization (patch [1/9], [3/9]) improves performance
much.  The PCP tuning (patch [7/9]) reduces performance a little because
PCP draining cannot be triggered in time sometimes.  The further PCP
draining optimization (patch [9/9]) based on PCP tuning restores the
performance partly.

The patchset adds several fields in struct per_cpu_pages.  The struct
layout before/after the patchset is as follows,

This patch (of 9):

In commit f26b3fa046 ("mm/page_alloc: limit number of high-order pages
on PCP during bulk free"), the PCP (Per-CPU Pageset) will be drained when
PCP is mostly used for high-order pages freeing to improve the cache-hot
pages reusing between page allocation and freeing CPUs.

But, the PCP draining mechanism may be triggered unexpectedly when process
exits.  With some customized trace point, it was found that PCP draining
(free_high == true) was triggered with the order-1 page freeing with the
following call stack,

 => free_unref_page_commit
 => free_unref_page
 => __mmdrop
 => exit_mm
 => do_exit
 => do_group_exit
 => __x64_sys_exit_group
 => do_syscall_64

Checking the source code, this is the page table PGD freeing
(mm_free_pgd()).  It's a order-1 page freeing if
CONFIG_PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION=y.  Which is a common configuration for
security.

Just before that, page freeing with the following call stack was found,

 => free_unref_page_commit
 => free_unref_page_list
 => release_pages
 => tlb_batch_pages_flush
 => tlb_finish_mmu
 => exit_mmap
 => __mmput
 => exit_mm
 => do_exit
 => do_group_exit
 => __x64_sys_exit_group
 => do_syscall_64

So, when a process exits,

- a large number of user pages of the process will be freed without
  page allocation, it's highly possible that pcp->free_factor becomes >
  0.  In fact, this is expected behavior to improve process exit
  performance.

- after freeing all user pages, the PGD will be freed, which is a
  order-1 page freeing, PCP will be drained.

All in all, when a process exits, it's high possible that the PCP will be
drained.  This is an unexpected behavior.

To avoid this, in the patch, the PCP draining will only be triggered for 2
consecutive high-order page freeing.

On a 2-socket Intel server with 224 logical CPU, we run 8 kbuild instances
in parallel (each with `make -j 28`) in 8 cgroup.  This simulates the
kbuild server that is used by 0-Day kbuild service.  With the patch, the
cycles% of the spinlock contention (mostly for zone lock) decreases from
14.0% to 12.8% (with PCP size == 367).  The number of PCP draining for
high order pages freeing (free_high) decreases 80.5%.

This helps network workload too for reduced zone lock contention.  On a
2-socket Intel server with 128 logical CPU, with the patch, the network
bandwidth of the UNIX (AF_UNIX) test case of lmbench test suite with
16-pair processes increase 16.8%.  The cycles% of the spinlock contention
(mostly for zone lock) decreases from 51.4% to 46.1%.  The number of PCP
draining for high order pages freeing (free_high) decreases 30.5%.  The
cache miss rate keeps 0.2%.

Kemeng Shi 27e0db3c21 mm/page_alloc: remove unnecessary check in break_down_buddy_pages
Patch series "Two minor cleanups to break_down_buddy_pages", v2.

Two minor cleanups to break_down_buddy_pages.


This patch (of 2):

1. We always have target in range started with next_page and full free
   range started with current_buddy.

2. The last split range size is 1 << low and low should be >= 0, then
   size >= 1.  So page + size != page is always true (because size > 0). 
   As summary, current_page will not equal to target page.

Kemeng Shi 61e21cf2d2 mm/page_alloc: correct start page when guard page debug is enabled
When guard page debug is enabled and set_page_guard returns success, we
miss to forward page to point to start of next split range and we will do
split unexpectedly in page range without target page.  Move start page
update before set_page_guard to fix this.

As we split to wrong target page, then splited pages are not able to merge
back to original order when target page is put back and splited pages
except target page is not usable.  To be specific:

Consider target page is the third page in buddy page with order 2.
| buddy-2 | Page | Target | Page |

After break down to target page, we will only set first page to Guard
because of bug.
| Guard   | Page | Target | Page |

When we try put_page_back_buddy with target page, the buddy page of target
if neither guard nor buddy, Then it's not able to construct original page
with order 2
| Guard | Page | buddy-0 | Page |

All pages except target page is not in free list and is not usable.

Johannes Weiner 7b086755fb mm: page_alloc: fix CMA and HIGHATOMIC landing on the wrong buddy list
Commit 4b23a68f95 ("mm/page_alloc: protect PCP lists with a spinlock")
bypasses the pcplist on lock contention and returns the page directly to
the buddy list of the page's migratetype.

For pages that don't have their own pcplist, such as CMA and HIGHATOMIC,
the migratetype is temporarily updated such that the page can hitch a ride
on the MOVABLE pcplist.  Their true type is later reassessed when flushing
in free_pcppages_bulk().  However, when lock contention is detected after
the type was already overridden, the bypass will then put the page on the
wrong buddy list.

Once on the MOVABLE buddy list, the page becomes eligible for fallbacks
and even stealing.  In the case of HIGHATOMIC, otherwise ineligible
allocations can dip into the highatomic reserves.  In the case of CMA, the
page can be lost from the CMA region permanently.

Use a separate pcpmigratetype variable for the pcplist override.  Use the
original migratetype when going directly to the buddy.  This fixes the bug
and should make the intentions more obvious in the code.

Originally sent here to address the HIGHATOMIC case:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230821183733.106619-4-hannes@cmpxchg.org/

Changelog updated in response to the CMA-specific bug report.

Johannes Weiner f945116e4e mm: page_alloc: remove stale CMA guard code
In the past, movable allocations could be disallowed from CMA through
PF_MEMALLOC_PIN.  As CMA pages are funneled through the MOVABLE pcplist,
this required filtering that cornercase during allocations, such that
pinnable allocations wouldn't accidentally get a CMA page.

However, since 8e3560d963 ("mm: honor PF_MEMALLOC_PIN for all movable
pages"), PF_MEMALLOC_PIN automatically excludes __GFP_MOVABLE.  Once
again, MOVABLE implies CMA is allowed.

Remove the stale filtering code.  Also remove a stale comment that was
introduced as part of the filtering code, because the filtering let
order-0 pages fall through to the buddy allocator.  See 1d91df85f3
("mm/page_alloc: handle a missing case for memalloc_nocma_{save/restore}
APIs") for context.  The comment's been obsolete since the introduction of
the explicit ALLOC_HIGHATOMIC flag in eb2e2b425c ("mm/page_alloc:
explicitly record high-order atomic allocations in alloc_flags").

Sebastian Andrzej Siewior a2ebb51575 mm/page_alloc: use write_seqlock_irqsave() instead write_seqlock() + local_irq_save().
__build_all_zonelists() acquires zonelist_update_seq by first disabling
interrupts via local_irq_save() and then acquiring the seqlock with
write_seqlock().  This is troublesome and leads to problems on PREEMPT_RT.
The problem is that the inner spinlock_t becomes a sleeping lock on
PREEMPT_RT and must not be acquired with disabled interrupts.

The API provides write_seqlock_irqsave() which does the right thing in one
step.  printk_deferred_enter() has to be invoked in non-migrate-able
context to ensure that deferred printing is enabled and disabled on the
same CPU.  This is the case after zonelist_update_seq has been acquired.

There was discussion on the first submission that the order should be:
	local_irq_disable();
	printk_deferred_enter();
	write_seqlock();

to avoid pitfalls like having an unaccounted printk() coming from
write_seqlock_irqsave() before printk_deferred_enter() is invoked.  The
only origin of such a printk() can be a lockdep splat because the lockdep
annotation happens after the sequence count is incremented.  This is
exceptional and subject to change.

It was also pointed that PREEMPT_RT can be affected by the printk problem
since its write_seqlock_irqsave() does not really disable interrupts. 
This isn't the case because PREEMPT_RT's printk implementation differs
from the mainline implementation in two important aspects:

- Printing happens in a dedicated threads and not at during the
  invocation of printk().
- In emergency cases where synchronous printing is used, a different
  driver is used which does not use tty_port::lock.

Acquire zonelist_update_seq with write_seqlock_irqsave() and then defer
printk output.

liuq 416ef04fe0 mm/page_alloc: fix min_free_kbytes calculation regarding ZONE_MOVABLE
The current calculation of min_free_kbytes only uses ZONE_DMA and
ZONE_NORMAL pages,but the ZONE_MOVABLE zone->_watermark[WMARK_MIN] will
also divide part of min_free_kbytes.This will cause the min watermark of
ZONE_NORMAL to be too small in the presence of ZONE_MOVEABLE.

__GFP_HIGH and PF_MEMALLOC allocations usually don't need movable zone
pages, so just like ZONE_HIGHMEM, cap pages_min to a small value in
__setup_per_zone_wmarks().

On my testing machine with 16GB of memory (transparent hugepage is turned
off by default, and movablecore=12G is configured) The following is a
comparative test data of watermark_min

		no patch	add patch
ZONE_DMA	1		8
ZONE_DMA32	151		709
ZONE_NORMAL	233		1113
ZONE_MOVABLE	1434		128
min_free_kbytes	7288		7326

page->buddy_list to clarify the correct type of list for a free page.

Tetsuo Handa 3b11edf1f2 mm/page_alloc: don't wake kswapd from rmqueue() unless __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM is specified
Commit 73444bc4d8 ("mm, page_alloc: do not wake kswapd with zone lock
held") moved wakeup_kswapd() from steal_suitable_fallback() to rmqueue()
using ZONE_BOOSTED_WATERMARK flag.

Only allocation contexts that include ALLOC_KSWAPD (which corresponds to
__GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM) should wake kswapd, for callers are supposed to
remove __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM if trying to hold pgdat->kswapd_wait has a
risk of deadlock.  But since zone->flags is a shared variable, a thread
doing !__GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM allocation request might observe this flag
being set immediately after another thread doing __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM
allocation request set this flag, causing possibility of deadlock.

Johannes Weiner 511a69b27f mm: compaction: simplify should_compact_retry()
The different branches for retry are unnecessarily complicated.  There are
really only three outcomes: progress (retry n times), skipped (retry if
reclaim can help), failed (retry with higher priority).

Rearrange the branches and the retry counter to make it simpler.

Johannes Weiner ecd8b2928f mm: compaction: remove compaction result helpers
Patch series "mm: compaction: cleanups & simplifications".

These compaction cleanups are split out from the huge page allocator
series[1], as requested by reviewer feedback.

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20230418191313.268131-1-hannes@cmpxchg.org/


This patch (of 5):

The compaction result helpers encode quirks that are specific to the
allocator's retry logic.  E.g.  COMPACT_SUCCESS and COMPACT_COMPLETE
actually represent failures that should be retried upon, and so on.  I
frequently found myself pulling up the helper implementation in order to
understand and work on the retry logic.  They're not quite clean
abstractions; rather they split the retry logic into two locations.

Remove the helpers and inline the checks.  Then comment on the result
interpretations directly where the decision making happens.
