With the advent of various new memory types, some machines will have
multiple types of memory, e.g. DRAM and PMEM (persistent memory). The
memory subsystem of these machines can be called memory tiering system,
because the performance of the different types of memory are usually
different.
In such system, because of the memory accessing pattern changing etc,
some pages in the slow memory may become hot globally. So in this
patch, the NUMA balancing mechanism is enhanced to optimize the page
placement among the different memory types according to hot/cold
dynamically.
In a typical memory tiering system, there are CPUs, fast memory and slow
memory in each physical NUMA node. The CPUs and the fast memory will be
put in one logical node (called fast memory node), while the slow memory
will be put in another (faked) logical node (called slow memory node).
That is, the fast memory is regarded as local while the slow memory is
regarded as remote. So it's possible for the recently accessed pages in
the slow memory node to be promoted to the fast memory node via the
existing NUMA balancing mechanism.
The original NUMA balancing mechanism will stop to migrate pages if the
free memory of the target node becomes below the high watermark. This
is a reasonable policy if there's only one memory type. But this makes
the original NUMA balancing mechanism almost do not work to optimize
page placement among different memory types. Details are as follows.
It's the common cases that the working-set size of the workload is
larger than the size of the fast memory nodes. Otherwise, it's
unnecessary to use the slow memory at all. So, there are almost always
no enough free pages in the fast memory nodes, so that the globally hot
pages in the slow memory node cannot be promoted to the fast memory
node. To solve the issue, we have 2 choices as follows,
a. Ignore the free pages watermark checking when promoting hot pages
from the slow memory node to the fast memory node. This will
create some memory pressure in the fast memory node, thus trigger
the memory reclaiming. So that, the cold pages in the fast memory
node will be demoted to the slow memory node.
b. Define a new watermark called wmark_promo which is higher than
wmark_high, and have kswapd reclaiming pages until free pages reach
such watermark. The scenario is as follows: when we want to promote
hot-pages from a slow memory to a fast memory, but fast memory's free
pages would go lower than high watermark with such promotion, we wake
up kswapd with wmark_promo watermark in order to demote cold pages and
free us up some space. So, next time we want to promote hot-pages we
might have a chance of doing so.
The choice "a" may create high memory pressure in the fast memory node.
If the memory pressure of the workload is high, the memory pressure
may become so high that the memory allocation latency of the workload
is influenced, e.g. the direct reclaiming may be triggered.
The choice "b" works much better at this aspect. If the memory
pressure of the workload is high, the hot pages promotion will stop
earlier because its allocation watermark is higher than that of the
normal memory allocation. So in this patch, choice "b" is implemented.
A new zone watermark (WMARK_PROMO) is added. Which is larger than the
high watermark and can be controlled via watermark_scale_factor.
In addition to the original page placement optimization among sockets,
the NUMA balancing mechanism is extended to be used to optimize page
placement according to hot/cold among different memory types. So the
sysctl user space interface (numa_balancing) is extended in a backward
compatible way as follow, so that the users can enable/disable these
functionality individually.
The sysctl is converted from a Boolean value to a bits field. The
definition of the flags is,
- 0: NUMA_BALANCING_DISABLED
- 1: NUMA_BALANCING_NORMAL
- 2: NUMA_BALANCING_MEMORY_TIERING
We have tested the patch with the pmbench memory accessing benchmark
with the 80:20 read/write ratio and the Gauss access address
distribution on a 2 socket Intel server with Optane DC Persistent
Memory Model. The test results shows that the pmbench score can
improve up to 95.9%.

we can easily reproduce this problem with the following commands:
cd /proc/sys/fs/epoll

This function requires a non-negative number to be passed in, so when a

This moves the namespace sysctls to its own file as part of the
kernel/sysctl.c spring cleaning
Since we have now removed all sysctls for "fs", we now have to declare
it on the filesystem code, we do that using the new helper, which
reduces boiler plate code.
We rename init_fs_shared_sysctls() to init_fs_sysctls() to reflect that
now fs/sysctls.c is taking on the burden of being the first to register
the base directory as well.
Lastly, since init code will load in the order in which we link it we
have to move the sysctl code to be linked in early, so that its early
init routine runs prior to other fs code. This way, other filesystem
code can register their own sysctls using the helpers after this:
* register_sysctl_init()
* register_sysctl()

Patch series "sysctl: add and use base directory declarer and
registration helper".
In this patch series we start addressing base directories, and so we
start with the "fs" sysctls. The end goal is we end up completely
moving all "fs" sysctl knobs out from kernel/sysctl.
This patch (of 6):
Add a set of helpers which can be used to declare and register base
directory sysctls on their own. We do this so we can later move each of
the base sysctl directories like "fs", "kernel", etc, to their own
respective files instead of shoving the declarations and registrations
all on kernel/sysctl.c. The lazy approach has caught up and with this,
we just end up extending the list of base directories / sysctls on one
file and this makes maintenance difficult due to merge conflicts from
many developers.
The declarations are used first by kernel/sysctl.c for registration its
own base which over time we'll try to clean up. It will be used in the
next patch to demonstrate how to cleanly deal with base sysctl
directories.

Patch series "sysctl: 4th set of kernel/sysctl cleanups".
This is slimming down the fs uses of kernel/sysctl.c to the point that
the next step is to just get rid of the fs base directory for it and
move that elsehwere, so that next patch series starts dealing with that
to demo how we can end up cleaning up a full base directory from
kernel/sysctl.c, one at a time.
This patch (of 9):
kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty
dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain.
To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places
where they actually belong. The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to
know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we
just care about the core logic.
So move the inode sysctls to its own file. Since we are no longer using
this outside of fs/ remove the extern declaration of its respective proc
helper.
We use early_initcall() as it is the earliest we can use.

Patch series "sysctl: 3rd set of kernel/sysctl cleanups", v2.
This is the third set of patches to help address cleaning the kitchen
seink in kernel/sysctl.c and to move sysctls away to where they are
actually implemented / used.
This patch (of 8):
kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty

it is used, and make it clear that if sysctls are disabled this is not
used.

There is no need to user boiler plate code to specify a set of base
directories we're going to stuff sysctls under. Simplify this by using
register_sysctl() and specifying the directory path directly.
Move inotify_user sysctl to inotify_user.c while at it to remove clutter
from kernel/sysctl.c.

The kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty
dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain.
To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places
where they actually belong. The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to
know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we
just care about the core logic.
So move dnotify sysctls to dnotify.c and use the new
register_sysctl_init() to register the sysctl interface.

When proc_dointvec_minmax() or proc_doulongvec_minmax() are used we are
using the extra1 and extra2 parameters on the sysctl table only for a
min and max boundary, these extra1 and extra2 arguments are then used
for read-only operations. So make them const to reflect this.

So, move the watchdog syscl interface to watchdog.c. Use

conflicts when different features modify sysctl.c at the same time.

sysctl has helpers which let us specify boundary values for a min or max
int value. Since these are used for a boundary check only they don't
change, so move these variables to sysctl_vals to avoid adding duplicate
variables. This will help with our cleanup of kernel/sysctl.c.

For embedded systems with low total memory, having to run applications
with relatively large memory requirements, 10% max limitation for
watermark_scale_factor poses an issue of triggering direct reclaim every
time such application is started. This results in slow application
startup times and bad end-user experience.
By increasing watermark_scale_factor max limit we allow vendors more
flexibility to choose the right level of kswapd aggressiveness for their
device and workload requirements.

sock.h is pretty heavily used (5k objects rebuilt on x86 after
it's touched). We can drop the include of filter.h from it and
add a forward declaration of struct sk_filter instead.
This decreases the number of rebuilt objects when bpf.h
is touched from ~5k to ~1k.
There's a lot of missing includes this was masking. Primarily
in networking tho, this time.

The proactive compaction[1] gets triggered for every 500msec and run
compaction on the node for COMPACTION_HPAGE_ORDER (usually order-9) pages
based on the value set to sysctl.compaction_proactiveness. Triggering the
compaction for every 500msec in search of COMPACTION_HPAGE_ORDER pages is
not needed for all applications, especially on the embedded system
usecases which may have few MB's of RAM. Enabling the proactive
compaction in its state will endup in running almost always on such
systems.
Other side, proactive compaction can still be very much useful for getting
a set of higher order pages in some controllable manner(controlled by
using the sysctl.compaction_proactiveness). So, on systems where enabling
the proactive compaction always may proove not required, can trigger the
same from user space on write to its sysctl interface. As an example, say
app launcher decide to launch the memory heavy application which can be
launched fast if it gets more higher order pages thus launcher can prepare
the system in advance by triggering the proactive compaction from
userspace.
This triggering of proactive compaction is done on a write to
sysctl.compaction_proactiveness by user.

kernel.h is being used as a dump for all kinds of stuff for a long time.
Here is the attempt to start cleaning it up by splitting out panic and
oops helpers.
There are several purposes of doing this:
- dropping dependency in bug.h
- dropping a loop by moving out panic_notifier.h
- unload kernel.h from something which has its own domain
At the same time convert users tree-wide to use new headers, although for
the time being include new header back to kernel.h to avoid twisted
indirected includes for existing users.

...
This introduces a new sysctl vm.percpu_pagelist_high_fraction. It is
similar to the old vm.percpu_pagelist_fraction. The old sysctl increased
both pcp->batch and pcp->high with the higher pcp->high potentially
reducing zone->lock contention. However, the higher pcp->batch value also
potentially increased allocation latency while the PCP was refilled. This
sysctl only adjusts pcp->high so that zone->lock contention is potentially
reduced but allocation latency during a PCP refill remains the same.
