mm/shmem: persist uffd-wp bit across zapping for file-backed
File-backed memory is prone to being unmapped at any time. It means all information in the pte will be dropped, including the uffd-wp flag. To persist the uffd-wp flag, we'll use the pte markers. This patch teaches the zap code to understand uffd-wp and know when to keep or drop the uffd-wp bit. Add a new flag ZAP_FLAG_DROP_MARKER and set it in zap_details when we don't want to persist such an information, for example, when destroying the whole vma, or punching a hole in a shmem file. For the rest cases we should never drop the uffd-wp bit, or the wr-protect information will get lost. The new ZAP_FLAG_DROP_MARKER needs to be put into mm.h rather than memory.c because it'll be further referenced in hugetlb files later.

mm: prevent vm_area_struct::anon_name refcount saturation
A deep process chain with many vmas could grow really high. With default sysctl_max_map_count (64k) and default pid_max (32k) the max number of vmas in the system is 2147450880 and the refcounter has headroom of 1073774592 before it reaches REFCOUNT_SATURATED (3221225472). Therefore it's unlikely that an anonymous name refcounter will overflow with these defaults. Currently the max for pid_max is PID_MAX_LIMIT (4194304) and for sysctl_max_map_count it's INT_MAX (2147483647). In this configuration anon_vma_name refcount overflow becomes theoretically possible (that still require heavy sharing of that anon_vma_name between processes). kref refcounting interface used in anon_vma_name structure will detect a counter overflow when it reaches REFCOUNT_SATURATED value but will only generate a warning and freeze the ref counter. This would lead to the refcounted object never being freed. A determined attacker could leak memory like that but it would be rather expensive and inefficient way to do so. To ensure anon_vma_name refcount does not overflow, stop anon_vma_name sharing when the refcount reaches REFCOUNT_MAX (2147483647), which still leaves INT_MAX/2 (1073741823) values before the counter reaches REFCOUNT_SATURATED. This should provide enough headroom for raising the refcounts temporarily.

mm/munlock: maintain page->mlock_count while unevictable
Previous patches have been preparatory: now implement page->mlock_count. The ordering of the "Unevictable LRU" is of no significance, and there is no point holding unevictable pages on a list: place page->mlock_count to overlay page->lru.prev (since page->lru.next is overlaid by compound_head, which needs to be even so as not to satisfy PageTail - though 2 could be added instead of 1 for each mlock, if that's ever an improvement). But it's only safe to rely on or modify page->mlock_count while lruvec lock is held and page is on unevictable "LRU" - we can save lots of edits by continuing to pretend that there's an imaginary LRU here (there is an unevictable count which still needs to be maintained, but not a list). The mlock_count technique suffers from an unreliability much like with page_mlock(): while someone else has the page off LRU, not much can be done. As before, err on the safe side (behave as if mlock_count 0), and let try_to_unlock_one() move the page to unevictable if reclaim finds out later on - a few misplaced pages don't matter, what we want to avoid is imbalancing reclaim by flooding evictable lists with unevictable pages. I am not a fan of "if (!isolate_lru_page(page)) putback_lru_page(page);": if we have taken lruvec lock to get the page off its present list, then we save everyone trouble (and however many extra atomic ops) by putting it on its destination list immediately.

mm: move tlb_flush_pending inline helpers to mm_inline.h
linux/mm_types.h should only define structure definitions, to make it cheap to include elsewhere. The atomic_t helper function definitions are particularly large, so it's better to move the helpers using those into the existing linux/mm_inline.h and only include that where needed. As a follow-up, we may want to go through all the indirect includes in mm_types.h and reduce them as much as possible.

mm: move anon_vma declarations to linux/mm_inline.h
The patch to add anonymous vma names causes a build failure in some
configurations:
include/linux/mm_types.h: In function 'is_same_vma_anon_name':
include/linux/mm_types.h:924:37: error: implicit declaration of function 'strcmp' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
924 | return name && vma_name && !strcmp(name, vma_name);
| ^~~~~~
include/linux/mm_types.h:22:1: note: 'strcmp' is defined in header '<string.h>'; did you forget to '#include <string.h>'?
This should not really be part of linux/mm_types.h in the first place,
as that header is meant to only contain structure defintions and need a
minimum set of indirect includes itself.
While the header clearly includes more than it should at this point,
let's not make it worse by including string.h as well, which would pull
in the expensive (compile-speed wise) fortify-string logic.
Move the new functions into a separate header that only needs to be
included in a couple of locations.

mm/lru: Add folio LRU functions
Handle arbitrary-order folios being added to the LRU. By definition, all pages being added to the LRU were already head or base pages, but call page_folio() on them anyway to get the type right and avoid the buried calls to compound_head().

Memcg has private per-zone counters because reclaim needs zone granularity sometimes, but we also have plenty of users that need to awkwardly sum them up to node or memcg granularity. Meanwhile the canonical per-memcg vmstats do not track the LRU counts (NR_INACTIVE_ANON etc.) as you'd expect. This series enables LRU count tracking in the per-memcg vmstats array such that lruvec_page_state() and memcg_page_state() work on the enum node_stat_item items for the LRU counters. Then it converts all the callers that don't specifically need per-zone numbers over to that. This patch (of 6): The memcg code currently maintains private per-zone breakdowns of the LRU counters. This is necessary for reclaim decisions which are still zone-based, but there are a variety of users of these counters that only want the aggregate per-lruvec or per-memcg LRU counts, and they need to painfully sum up the zone counters on each request for that. These would be better served using the memcg vmstats arrays, which track VM statistics at the desired scope already. They just don't have the LRU counts right now. So to kick off the conversion, begin tracking LRU counts in those.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

x86/mm, mm/hwpoison: Clear PRESENT bit for kernel 1:1 mappings of poison pages
Speculative processor accesses may reference any memory that has a valid page table entry. While a speculative access won't generate a machine check, it will log the error in a machine check bank. That could cause escalation of a subsequent error since the overflow bit will be then set in the machine check bank status register. Code has to be double-plus-tricky to avoid mentioning the 1:1 virtual address of the page we want to map out otherwise we may trigger the very problem we are trying to avoid. We use a non-canonical address that passes through the usual Linux table walking code to get to the same "pte". Thanks to Dave Hansen for reviewing several iterations of this.

mm: vmscan: move dirty pages out of the way until they're flushed
We noticed a performance regression when moving hadoop workloads from 3.10 kernels to 4.0 and 4.6. This is accompanied by increased pageout activity initiated by kswapd as well as frequent bursts of allocation stalls and direct reclaim scans. Even lowering the dirty ratios to the equivalent of less than 1% of memory would not eliminate the issue, suggesting that dirty pages concentrate where the scanner is looking. This can be traced back to recent efforts of thrash avoidance. Where 3.10 would not detect refaulting pages and continuously supply clean cache to the inactive list, a thrashing workload on 4.0+ will detect and activate refaulting pages right away, distilling used-once pages on the inactive list much more effectively. This is by design, and it makes sense for clean cache. But for the most part our workload's cache faults are refaults and its use-once cache is from streaming writes. We end up with most of the inactive list dirty, and we don't go after the active cache as long as we have use-once pages around. But waiting for writes to avoid reclaiming clean cache that *might* refault is a bad trade-off. Even if the refaults happen, reads are faster than writes. Before getting bogged down on writeback, reclaim should first look at *all* cache in the system, even active cache. To accomplish this, activate pages that are dirty or under writeback when they reach the end of the inactive LRU. The pages are marked for immediate reclaim, meaning they'll get moved back to the inactive LRU tail as soon as they're written back and become reclaimable. But in the meantime, by reducing the inactive list to only immediately reclaimable pages, we allow the scanner to deactivate and refill the inactive list with clean cache from the active list tail to guarantee forward progress.

Further debugging has shown that the reclaim cannot make any forward progress because the page cache is hidden in the active list which doesn't get rotated because inactive_list_is_low is not memcg aware. The code simply subtracts per-zone highmem counters from the respective memcg's lru sizes which doesn't make any sense. We can simply end up always seeing the resulting active and inactive counts 0 and return false. This issue is not limited to 32b kernels but in practice the effect on systems without CONFIG_HIGHMEM would be much harder to notice because we do not invoke the OOM killer for allocations requests targeting < ZONE_NORMAL. Fix the issue by tracking per zone lru page counts in mem_cgroup_per_node and subtract per-memcg highmem counts when memcg is enabled. Introduce helper lruvec_zone_lru_size which redirects to either zone counters or mem_cgroup_get_zone_lru_size when appropriate. We are losing empty LRU but non-zero lru size detection introduced by |

The warning above is from a check in mem_cgroup_update_lru_size that ensures that list sizes of zero are empty. The problem is that node-lru needs to account for highmem pages if CONFIG_HIGHMEM is set. One impact of the implementation is that the sizes are updated in multiple passes when pages from multiple zones were isolated. This happens whether HIGHMEM is set or not. When multiple zones are isolated, it's possible for a debugging check in memcg to be tripped. This patch forces all the zone counts to be updated before the memcg function is called.

mm, vmstat: remove zone and node double accounting by approximating retries
The number of LRU pages, dirty pages and writeback pages must be
accounted for on both zones and nodes because of the reclaim retry
logic, compaction retry logic and highmem calculations all depending on
per-zone stats.
Many lowmem allocations are immune from OOM kill due to a check in
__alloc_pages_may_oom for (ac->high_zoneidx < ZONE_NORMAL) since commit

mm, vmscan: move LRU lists to node
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.

mm: update_lru_size do the __mod_zone_page_state
Konstantin Khlebnikov pointed out (nearly four years ago, when lumpy reclaim was removed) that lru_size can be updated by -nr_taken once per call to isolate_lru_pages(), instead of page by page. Update it inside isolate_lru_pages(), or at its two callsites? I chose to update it at the callsites, rearranging and grouping the updates by nr_taken and nr_scanned together in both. With one exception, mem_cgroup_update_lru_size(,lru,) is then used where __mod_zone_page_state(,NR_LRU_BASE+lru,) is used; and we shall be adding some more calls in a future commit. Make the code a little smaller and simpler by incorporating stat update in lru_size update. The exception was move_active_pages_to_lru(), which aggregated the pgmoved stat update separately from the individual lru_size updates; but I still think this a simplification worth making. However, the __mod_zone_page_state is not peculiar to mem_cgroups: so better use the name update_lru_size, calls mem_cgroup_update_lru_size when CONFIG_MEMCG.

mm: update_lru_size warn and reset bad lru_size
Though debug kernels have a VM_BUG_ON to help protect from misaccounting lru_size, non-debug kernels are liable to wrap it around: and then the vast unsigned long size draws page reclaim into a loop of repeatedly doing nothing on an empty list, without even a cond_resched(). That soft lockup looks confusingly like an over-busy reclaim scenario, with lots of contention on the lru_lock in shrink_inactive_list(): yet has a totally different origin. Help differentiate with a custom warning in mem_cgroup_update_lru_size(), even in non-debug kernels; and reset the size to avoid the lockup. But the particular bug which suggested this change was mine alone, and since fixed. Make it a WARN_ONCE: the first occurrence is the most informative, a flurry may follow, yet even when rate-limited little more is learnt. Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: "Kirill A.

mm: vmscan: fix do_try_to_free_pages() livelock
This patch is based on KOSAKI's work and I add a little more description, please refer https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/14/74. Currently, I found system can enter a state that there are lots of free pages in a zone but only order-0 and order-1 pages which means the zone is heavily fragmented, then high order allocation could make direct reclaim path's long stall(ex, 60 seconds) especially in no swap and no compaciton enviroment. This problem happened on v3.4, but it seems issue still lives in current tree, the reason is do_try_to_free_pages enter live lock: kswapd will go to sleep if the zones have been fully scanned and are still not balanced. As kswapd thinks there's little point trying all over again to avoid infinite loop. Instead it changes order from high-order to 0-order because kswapd think order-0 is the most important. Look at |

mm/memcg: apply add/del_page to lruvec
Take lruvec further: pass it instead of zone to add_page_to_lru_list() and del_page_from_lru_list(); and pagevec_lru_move_fn() pass lruvec down to its target functions. This cleanup eliminates a swathe of cruft in memcontrol.c, including mem_cgroup_lru_add_list(), mem_cgroup_lru_del_list() and mem_cgroup_lru_move_lists() - which never actually touched the lists. In their place, mem_cgroup_page_lruvec() to decide the lruvec, previously a side-effect of add, and mem_cgroup_update_lru_size() to maintain the lru_size stats. Whilst these are simplifications in their own right, the goal is to bring the evaluation of lruvec next to the spin_locking of the lrus, in preparation for a future patch.

thp: transparent hugepage core
Lately I've been working to make KVM use hugepages transparently without
the usual restrictions of hugetlbfs. Some of the restrictions I'd like to
see removed:
1) hugepages have to be swappable or the guest physical memory remains
locked in RAM and can't be paged out to swap
2) if a hugepage allocation fails, regular pages should be allocated
instead and mixed in the same vma without any failure and without
userland noticing
3) if some task quits and more hugepages become available in the
buddy, guest physical memory backed by regular pages should be
relocated on hugepages automatically in regions under
madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) (ideally event driven by waking up the
kernel deamon if the order=HPAGE_PMD_SHIFT-PAGE_SHIFT list becomes
not null)
4) avoidance of reservation and maximization of use of hugepages whenever
possible. Reservation (needed to avoid runtime fatal faliures) may be ok for
1 machine with 1 database with 1 database cache with 1 database cache size
known at boot time. It's definitely not feasible with a virtualization
hypervisor usage like RHEV-H that runs an unknown number of virtual machines
with an unknown size of each virtual machine with an unknown amount of
pagecache that could be potentially useful in the host for guest not using
O_DIRECT (aka cache=off).
hugepages in the virtualization hypervisor (and also in the guest!) are
much more important than in a regular host not using virtualization,
becasue with NPT/EPT they decrease the tlb-miss cacheline accesses from 24
to 19 in case only the hypervisor uses transparent hugepages, and they
decrease the tlb-miss cacheline accesses from 19 to 15 in case both the
linux hypervisor and the linux guest both uses this patch (though the
guest will limit the addition speedup to anonymous regions only for
now...). Even more important is that the tlb miss handler is much slower
on a NPT/EPT guest than for a regular shadow paging or no-virtualization
scenario. So maximizing the amount of virtual memory cached by the TLB
pays off significantly more with NPT/EPT than without (even if there would
be no significant speedup in the tlb-miss runtime).
The first (and more tedious) part of this work requires allowing the VM to
handle anonymous hugepages mixed with regular pages transparently on
regular anonymous vmas. This is what this patch tries to achieve in the
least intrusive possible way. We want hugepages and hugetlb to be used in
a way so that all applications can benefit without changes (as usual we
leverage the KVM virtualization design: by improving the Linux VM at
large, KVM gets the performance boost too).
The most important design choice is: always fallback to 4k allocation if
the hugepage allocation fails! This is the _very_ opposite of some large
pagecache patches that failed with -EIO back then if a 64k (or similar)
allocation failed...
Second important decision (to reduce the impact of the feature on the
existing pagetable handling code) is that at any time we can split an
hugepage into 512 regular pages and it has to be done with an operation
that can't fail. This way the reliability of the swapping isn't decreased
(no need to allocate memory when we are short on memory to swap) and it's
trivial to plug a split_huge_page* one-liner where needed without
polluting the VM. Over time we can teach mprotect, mremap and friends to
handle pmd_trans_huge natively without calling split_huge_page*. The fact
it can't fail isn't just for swap: if split_huge_page would return -ENOMEM
(instead of the current void) we'd need to rollback the mprotect from the
middle of it (ideally including undoing the split_vma) which would be a
big change and in the very wrong direction (it'd likely be simpler not to
call split_huge_page at all and to teach mprotect and friends to handle
hugepages instead of rolling them back from the middle). In short the
very value of split_huge_page is that it can't fail.
The collapsing and madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) part will remain separated and
incremental and it'll just be an "harmless" addition later if this initial
part is agreed upon. It also should be noted that locking-wise replacing
regular pages with hugepages is going to be very easy if compared to what
I'm doing below in split_huge_page, as it will only happen when
page_count(page) matches page_mapcount(page) if we can take the PG_lock
and mmap_sem in write mode. collapse_huge_page will be a "best effort"
that (unlike split_huge_page) can fail at the minimal sign of trouble and
we can try again later. collapse_huge_page will be similar to how KSM
works and the madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) will work similar to
madvise(MADV_MERGEABLE).
The default I like is that transparent hugepages are used at page fault
time. This can be changed with
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled. The control knob can be set
to three values "always", "madvise", "never" which mean respectively that
hugepages are always used, or only inside madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) regions,
or never used. /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag instead
controls if the hugepage allocation should defrag memory aggressively
"always", only inside "madvise" regions, or "never".
The pmd_trans_splitting/pmd_trans_huge locking is very solid. The
put_page (from get_user_page users that can't use mmu notifier like
O_DIRECT) that runs against a __split_huge_page_refcount instead was a
pain to serialize in a way that would result always in a coherent page
count for both tail and head. I think my locking solution with a
compound_lock taken only after the page_first is valid and is still a
PageHead should be safe but it surely needs review from SMP race point of
view. In short there is no current existing way to serialize the O_DIRECT
final put_page against split_huge_page_refcount so I had to invent a new
one (O_DIRECT loses knowledge on the mapping status by the time gup_fast
returns so...). And I didn't want to impact all gup/gup_fast users for
now, maybe if we change the gup interface substantially we can avoid this
locking, I admit I didn't think too much about it because changing the gup
unpinning interface would be invasive.
If we ignored O_DIRECT we could stick to the existing compound refcounting
code, by simply adding a get_user_pages_fast_flags(foll_flags) where KVM
(and any other mmu notifier user) would call it without FOLL_GET (and if
FOLL_GET isn't set we'd just BUG_ON if nobody registered itself in the
current task mmu notifier list yet). But O_DIRECT is fundamental for
decent performance of virtualized I/O on fast storage so we can't avoid it
to solve the race of put_page against split_huge_page_refcount to achieve
a complete hugepage feature for KVM.
Swap and oom works fine (well just like with regular pages ;). MMU
notifier is handled transparently too, with the exception of the young bit
on the pmd, that didn't have a range check but I think KVM will be fine
because the whole point of hugepages is that EPT/NPT will also use a huge
pmd when they notice gup returns pages with PageCompound set, so they
won't care of a range and there's just the pmd young bit to check in that
case.
NOTE: in some cases if the L2 cache is small, this may slowdown and waste
memory during COWs because 4M of memory are accessed in a single fault
instead of 8k (the payoff is that after COW the program can run faster).
So we might want to switch the copy_huge_page (and clear_huge_page too) to
not temporal stores. I also extensively researched ways to avoid this
cache trashing with a full prefault logic that would cow in 8k/16k/32k/64k
up to 1M (I can send those patches that fully implemented prefault) but I
concluded they're not worth it and they add an huge additional complexity
and they remove all tlb benefits until the full hugepage has been faulted
in, to save a little bit of memory and some cache during app startup, but
they still don't improve substantially the cache-trashing during startup
if the prefault happens in >4k chunks. One reason is that those 4k pte
entries copied are still mapped on a perfectly cache-colored hugepage, so
the trashing is the worst one can generate in those copies (cow of 4k page
copies aren't so well colored so they trashes less, but again this results
in software running faster after the page fault). Those prefault patches
allowed things like a pte where post-cow pages were local 4k regular anon
pages and the not-yet-cowed pte entries were pointing in the middle of
some hugepage mapped read-only. If it doesn't payoff substantially with
todays hardware it will payoff even less in the future with larger l2
caches, and the prefault logic would blot the VM a lot. If one is
emebdded transparent_hugepage can be disabled during boot with sysfs or
with the boot commandline parameter transparent_hugepage=0 (or
transparent_hugepage=2 to restrict hugepages inside madvise regions) that
will ensure not a single hugepage is allocated at boot time. It is simple
enough to just disable transparent hugepage globally and let transparent
hugepages be allocated selectively by applications in the MADV_HUGEPAGE
region (both at page fault time, and if enabled with the
collapse_huge_page too through the kernel daemon).
This patch supports only hugepages mapped in the pmd, archs that have
smaller hugepages will not fit in this patch alone. Also some archs like
power have certain tlb limits that prevents mixing different page size in
the same regions so they will not fit in this framework that requires
"graceful fallback" to basic PAGE_SIZE in case of physical memory
fragmentation. hugetlbfs remains a perfect fit for those because its
software limits happen to match the hardware limits. hugetlbfs also
remains a perfect fit for hugepage sizes like 1GByte that cannot be hoped
to be found not fragmented after a certain system uptime and that would be
very expensive to defragment with relocation, so requiring reservation.
hugetlbfs is the "reservation way", the point of transparent hugepages is
not to have any reservation at all and maximizing the use of cache and
hugepages at all times automatically.
Some performance result:

mm: return boolean from page_is_file_cache()
page_is_file_cache() has been used for both boolean checks and LRU arithmetic, which was always a bit weird.

memcg: synchronized LRU
A big patch for changing memcg's LRU semantics.
Now,
- page_cgroup is linked to mem_cgroup's its own LRU (per zone).
- LRU of page_cgroup is not synchronous with global LRU.
- page and page_cgroup is one-to-one and statically allocated.
- To find page_cgroup is on what LRU, you have to check pc->mem_cgroup as
- lru = page_cgroup_zoneinfo(pc, nid_of_pc, zid_of_pc);
- SwapCache is handled.
And, when we handle LRU list of page_cgroup, we do following.
pc = lookup_page_cgroup(page);
lock_page_cgroup(pc); .....................(1)
mz = page_cgroup_zoneinfo(pc);
spin_lock(&mz->lru_lock);
.....add to LRU
spin_unlock(&mz->lru_lock);
unlock_page_cgroup(pc);
But (1) is spin_lock and we have to be afraid of dead-lock with zone->lru_lock.
So, trylock() is used at (1), now. Without (1), we can't trust "mz" is correct.
This is a trial to remove this dirty nesting of locks.
This patch changes mz->lru_lock to be zone->lru_lock.
Then, above sequence will be written as
spin_lock(&zone->lru_lock); # in vmscan.c or swap.c via global LRU
mem_cgroup_add/remove/etc_lru() {
pc = lookup_page_cgroup(page);
mz = page_cgroup_zoneinfo(pc);
if (PageCgroupUsed(pc)) {
....add to LRU
}
spin_lock(&zone->lru_lock); # in vmscan.c or swap.c via global LRU
This is much simpler.
(*) We're safe even if we don't take lock_page_cgroup(pc). Because..
1. When pc->mem_cgroup can be modified.
- at charge.
- at account_move().
2. at charge
the PCG_USED bit is not set before pc->mem_cgroup is fixed.
3. at account_move()
the page is isolated and not on LRU.
Pros.
- easy for maintenance.
- memcg can make use of laziness of pagevec.
- we don't have to duplicated LRU/Active/Unevictable bit in page_cgroup.
- LRU status of memcg will be synchronized with global LRU's one.
- # of locks are reduced.
- account_move() is simplified very much.
Cons.
- may increase cost of LRU rotation.
(no impact if memcg is not configured.)

Unevictable LRU Infrastructure
When the system contains lots of mlocked or otherwise unevictable pages, the pageout code (kswapd) can spend lots of time scanning over these pages. Worse still, the presence of lots of unevictable pages can confuse kswapd into thinking that more aggressive pageout modes are required, resulting in all kinds of bad behaviour. Infrastructure to manage pages excluded from reclaim--i.e., hidden from vmscan. Based on a patch by Larry Woodman of Red Hat. Reworked to maintain "unevictable" pages on a separate per-zone LRU list, to "hide" them from vmscan. Kosaki Motohiro added the support for the memory controller unevictable lru list. Pages on the unevictable list have both PG_unevictable and PG_lru set. Thus, PG_unevictable is analogous to and mutually exclusive with PG_active--it specifies which LRU list the page is on. The unevictable infrastructure is enabled by a new mm Kconfig option [CONFIG_]UNEVICTABLE_LRU. A new function 'page_evictable(page, vma)' in vmscan.c tests whether or not a page may be evictable. Subsequent patches will add the various !evictable tests. We'll want to keep these tests light-weight for use in shrink_active_list() and, possibly, the fault path. To avoid races between tasks putting pages [back] onto an LRU list and tasks that might be moving the page from non-evictable to evictable state, the new function 'putback_lru_page()' -- inverse to 'isolate_lru_page()' -- tests the "evictability" of a page after placing it on the LRU, before dropping the reference. If the page has become unevictable, putback_lru_page() will redo the 'putback', thus moving the page to the unevictable list. This way, we avoid "stranding" evictable pages on the unevictable list.

vmscan: second chance replacement for anonymous pages
We avoid evicting and scanning anonymous pages for the most part, but under some workloads we can end up with most of memory filled with anonymous pages. At that point, we suddenly need to clear the referenced bits on all of memory, which can take ages on very large memory systems. We can reduce the maximum number of pages that need to be scanned by not taking the referenced state into account when deactivating an anonymous page. After all, every anonymous page starts out referenced, so why check? If an anonymous page gets referenced again before it reaches the end of the inactive list, we move it back to the active list. To keep the maximum amount of necessary work reasonable, we scale the active to inactive ratio with the size of memory, using the formula active:inactive ratio = sqrt(memory in GB * 10). Kswapd CPU use now seems to scale by the amount of pageout bandwidth, instead of by the amount of memory present in the system.

vmscan: split LRU lists into anon & file sets
Split the LRU lists in two, one set for pages that are backed by real file
systems ("file") and one for pages that are backed by memory and swap
("anon"). The latter includes tmpfs.
The advantage of doing this is that the VM will not have to scan over lots
of anonymous pages (which we generally do not want to swap out), just to
find the page cache pages that it should evict.
This patch has the infrastructure and a basic policy to balance how much
we scan the anon lists and how much we scan the file lists. The big
policy changes are in separate patches.

define page_file_cache() function
Define page_file_cache() function to answer the question: is page backed by a file? Originally part of Rik van Riel's split-lru patch. Extracted to make available for other, independent reclaim patches. Moved inline function to linux/mm_inline.h where it will be needed by subsequent "split LRU" and "noreclaim" patches. Unfortunately this needs to use a page flag, since the PG_swapbacked state needs to be preserved all the way to the point where the page is last removed from the LRU. Trying to derive the status from other info in the page resulted in wrong VM statistics in earlier split VM patchsets. The total number of page flags in use on a 32 bit machine after this patch is 19.
