2015-11-01mm: get rid of 'vmalloc_info' from /proc/meminfoLinus Torvalds
It turns out that at least some versions of glibc end up reading /proc/meminfo at every single startup, because glibc wants to know the amount of memory the machine has. And while that's arguably insane, it's just how things are. And it turns out that it's not all that expensive most of the time, but the vmalloc information statistics (amount of virtual memory used in the vmalloc space, and the biggest remaining chunk) can be rather expensive to compute. The 'get_vmalloc_info()' function actually showed up on my profiles as 4% of the CPU usage of "make test" in the git source repository, because the git tests are lots of very short-lived shell-scripts etc. It turns out that apparently this same silly vmalloc info gathering shows up on the facebook servers too, according to Dave Jones. So it's not just "make test" for git. We had two patches to just cache the information (one by me, one by Ingo) to mitigate this issue, but the whole vmalloc information of of rather dubious value to begin with, and people who *actually* want to know what the situation is wrt the vmalloc area should just look at the much more complete /proc/vmallocinfo instead. In fact, according to my testing - and perhaps more importantly, according to that big search engine in the sky: Google - there is nothing out there that actually cares about those two expensive fields: VmallocUsed and VmallocChunk. So let's try to just remove them entirely. Actually, this just removes the computation and reports the numbers as zero for now, just to try to be minimally intrusive. If this breaks anything, we'll obviously have to re-introduce the code to compute this all and add the caching patches on top. But if given the option, I'd really prefer to just remove this bad idea entirely rather than add even more code to work around our historical mistake that likely nobody really cares about.

2015-10-23mm: make sendfile(2) killableJan Kara
Currently a simple program below issues a sendfile(2) system call which takes about 62 days to complete in my test KVM instance. int fd; off_t off = 0; fd = open("file", O_RDWR | O_TRUNC | O_SYNC | O_CREAT, 0644); ftruncate(fd, 2); lseek(fd, 0, SEEK_END); sendfile(fd, fd, &off, 0xfffffff); Now you should not ask kernel to do a stupid stuff like copying 256MB in 2-byte chunks and call fsync(2) after each chunk but if you do, sysadmin should have a way to stop you. We actually do have a check for fatal_signal_pending() in generic_perform_write() which triggers in this path however because we always succeed in writing something before the check is done, we return value > 0 from generic_perform_write() and thus the information about signal gets lost. Fix the problem by doing the signal check before writing anything. That way generic_perform_write() returns -EINTR, the error gets propagated up and the sendfile loop terminates early.

2015-10-23thp: use is_zero_pfn() only after pte_present() checkMinchan Kim
Use is_zero_pfn() on pteval only after pte_present() check on pteval (It might be better idea to introduce is_zero_pte() which checks pte_present() first). Otherwise when working on a swap or migration entry and if pte_pfn's result is equal to zero_pfn by chance, we lose user's data in __collapse_huge_page_copy().

2015-10-17mm,thp: introduce flush_pmd_tlb_rangeVineet Gupta
ARCHes with special requirements for evicting THP backing TLB entries can implement this. Otherwise also, it can help optimize TLB flush in THP regime. stock flush_tlb_range() typically has optimization to nuke the entire TLB if flush span is greater than a certain threshhold, which will likely be true for a single huge page. Thus a single thp flush will invalidate the entrire TLB which is not desirable. e.g. see arch/arc: flush_pmd_tlb_range Acked-by: Kirill A.

2015-10-16mm, fs: obey gfp_mapping for add_to_page_cache()Michal Hocko
Commit 6afdb859b710 ("mm: do not ignore mapping_gfp_mask in page cache allocation paths") has caught some users of hardcoded GFP_KERNEL used in the page cache allocation paths. This, however, wasn't complete and there were others which went unnoticed. Dave Chinner has reported the following deadlock for xfs on loop device: : With the recent merge of the loop device changes, I'm now seeing : XFS deadlock on my single CPU, 1GB RAM VM running xfs/073. : : The deadlocked is as follows: : : kloopd1: loop_queue_read_work : xfs_file_iter_read : lock XFS inode XFS_IOLOCK_SHARED (on image file) : page cache read (GFP_KERNEL) : radix tree alloc : memory reclaim : reclaim XFS inodes : log force to unpin inodes : <wait for log IO completion> : : xfs-cil/loop1: <does log force IO work> : xlog_cil_push : xlog_write : <loop issuing log writes> : xlog_state_get_iclog_space() : <blocks due to all log buffers under write io> : <waits for IO completion> : : kloopd1: loop_queue_write_work : xfs_file_write_iter : lock XFS inode XFS_IOLOCK_EXCL (on image file) : <wait for inode to be unlocked> : : i.e. the kloopd, with it's split read and write work queues, has : introduced a dependency through memory reclaim. i.e. that writes : need to be able to progress for reads make progress. : : The problem, fundamentally, is that mpage_readpages() does a : GFP_KERNEL allocation, rather than paying attention to the inode's : mapping gfp mask, which is set to GFP_NOFS. : : The didn't used to happen, because the loop device used to issue : reads through the splice path and that does: : : error = add_to_page_cache_lru(page, mapping, index, : GFP_KERNEL & mapping_gfp_mask(mapping)); This has changed by commit aa4d86163e4 ("block: loop: switch to VFS ITER_BVEC"). This patch changes mpage_readpage{s} to follow gfp mask set for the mapping. There are, however, other places which are doing basically the same. lustre:ll_dir_filler is doing GFP_KERNEL from the function which apparently uses GFP_NOFS for other allocations so let's make this consistent. cifs:readpages_get_pages is called from cifs_readpages and __cifs_readpages_from_fscache called from the same path obeys mapping gfp. ramfs_nommu_expand_for_mapping is hardcoding GFP_KERNEL as well regardless it uses mapping_gfp_mask for the page allocation. ext4_mpage_readpages is the called from the page cache allocation path same as read_pages and read_cache_pages As I've noticed in my previous post I cannot say I would be happy about sprinkling mapping_gfp_mask all over the place and it sounds like we should drop gfp_mask argument altogether and use it internally in __add_to_page_cache_locked that would require all the filesystems to use mapping gfp consistently which I am not sure is the case here. From a quick glance it seems that some file system use it all the time while others are selective.

2015-10-15vmstat: explicitly schedule per-cpu work on the CPU we need it to run onLinus Torvalds
The vmstat code uses "schedule_delayed_work_on()" to do the initial startup of the delayed work on the right CPU, but then once it was started it would use the non-cpu-specific "schedule_delayed_work()" to re-schedule it on that CPU. That just happened to schedule it on the same CPU historically (well, in almost all situations), but the code _requires_ this work to be per-cpu, and should say so explicitly rather than depend on the non-cpu-specific scheduling to schedule on the current CPU. The timer code is being changed to not be as single-minded in always running things on the calling CPU. See also commit 874bbfe600a6 ("workqueue: make sure delayed work run in local cpu") that for now maintains the local CPU guarantees just in case there are other broken users that depended on the accidental behavior.

2015-10-15block: don't release bdi while request_queue has live referencesTejun Heo
bdi's are initialized in two steps, bdi_init() and bdi_register(), but destroyed in a single step by bdi_destroy() which, for a bdi embedded in a request_queue, is called during blk_cleanup_queue() which makes the queue invisible and starts the draining of remaining usages. A request_queue's user can access the congestion state of the embedded bdi as long as it holds a reference to the queue. As such, it may access the congested state of a queue which finished blk_cleanup_queue() but hasn't reached blk_release_queue() yet. Because the congested state was embedded in backing_dev_info which in turn is embedded in request_queue, accessing the congested state after bdi_destroy() was called was fine. The bdi was destroyed but the memory region for the congested state remained accessible till the queue got released. a13f35e87140 ("writeback: don't embed root bdi_writeback_congested in bdi_writeback") changed the situation. Now, the root congested state which is expected to be pinned while request_queue remains accessible is separately reference counted and the base ref is put during bdi_destroy(). This means that the root congested state may go away prematurely while the queue is between bdi_dstroy() and blk_cleanup_queue(), which was detected by Andrey's KASAN tests. The root cause of this problem is that bdi doesn't distinguish the two steps of destruction, unregistration and release, and now the root congested state actually requires a separate release step. To fix the issue, this patch separates out bdi_unregister() and bdi_exit() from bdi_destroy(). bdi_unregister() is called from blk_cleanup_queue() and bdi_exit() from blk_release_queue(). bdi_destroy() is now just a simple wrapper calling the two steps back-to-back. While at it, the prototype of bdi_destroy() is moved right below bdi_setup_and_register() so that the counterpart operations are located together.

2015-10-12writeback: fix incorrect calculation of available memory for memcg domainsTejun Heo
For memcg domains, the amount of available memory was calculated as min(the amount currently in use + headroom according to memcg, total clean memory) This isn't quite correct as what should be capped by the amount of clean memory is the headroom, not the sum of memory in use and headroom. For example, if a memcg domain has a significant amount of dirty memory, the above can lead to a value which is lower than the current amount in use which doesn't make much sense. In most circumstances, the above leads to a number which is somewhat but not drastically lower. As the amount of memory which can be readily allocated to the memcg domain is capped by the amount of system-wide clean memory which is not already assigned to the memcg itself, the number we want is the amount currently in use + min(headroom according to memcg, clean memory elsewhere in the system) This patch updates mem_cgroup_wb_stats() to return the number of filepages and headroom instead of the calculated available pages. mdtc_cap_avail() is renamed to mdtc_calc_avail() and performs the above calculation from file, headroom, dirty and globally clean pages. v2: Dummy mem_cgroup_wb_stats() implementation wasn't updated leading to build failure when !CGROUP_WRITEBACK.

2015-10-12writeback: bdi_writeback iteration must not skip dying onesTejun Heo
bdi_for_each_wb() is used in several places to wake up or issue writeback work items to all wb's (bdi_writeback's) on a given bdi. The iteration is performed by walking bdi->cgwb_tree; however, the tree only indexes wb's which are currently active. For example, when a memcg gets associated with a different blkcg, the old wb is removed from the tree so that the new one can be indexed. The old wb starts dying from then on but will linger till all its inodes are drained. As these dying wb's may still host dirty inodes, writeback operations which affect all wb's must include them. bdi_for_each_wb() skipping dying wb's led to sync(2) missing and failing to sync the inodes belonging to those wb's. This patch adds a RCU protected @bdi->wb_list which lists all wb's beloinging to that bdi. wb's are added on creation and removed on release rather than on the start of destruction. bdi_for_each_wb() usages are replaced with list_for_each[_continue]_rcu() iterations over @bdi->wb_list and bdi_for_each_wb() and its helpers are removed. v2: Updated as per Jan. last_wb ref leak in bdi_split_work_to_wbs() fixed and unnecessary list head severing in cgwb_bdi_destroy() removed.

2015-10-07Revert "fs: do not prefault sys_write() user buffer pages"Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit 998ef75ddb5709bbea0bf1506cd2717348a3c647. The commit itself does not appear to be buggy per se, but it is exposing a bug in ext4 (and Ted thinks ext3 too, but we solved that by getting rid of it). It's too late in the release cycle to really worry about this, even if Dave Hansen has a patch that may actually fix the underlying ext4 problem. We can (and should) revisit this for the next release. The problem is that moving the prefaulting later now exposes a special case with partially successful writes that isn't handled correctly. And the prefaulting likely isn't normally even that much of a performance issue - it looks like at least one reason Dave saw this in his performance tests is that he also ran them on Skylake that now supports the new SMAP code, which makes the normally very cheap user space prefaulting noticeably more expensive.

2015-10-01memcg: make mem_cgroup_read_stat() unsignedGreg Thelen
mem_cgroup_read_stat() returns a page count by summing per cpu page counters. The summing is racy wrt. updates, so a transient negative sum is possible. Callers don't want negative values: - mem_cgroup_wb_stats() doesn't want negative nr_dirty or nr_writeback. This could confuse dirty throttling. - oom reports and memory.stat shouldn't show confusing negative usage. - tree_usage() already avoids negatives. Avoid returning negative page counts from mem_cgroup_read_stat() and convert it to unsigned.

2015-10-01memcg: fix dirty page migrationGreg Thelen
The problem starts with a file backed dirty page which is charged to a memcg. Then page migration is used to move oldpage to newpage. Migration: - copies the oldpage's data to newpage - clears oldpage.PG_dirty - sets newpage.PG_dirty - uncharges oldpage from memcg - charges newpage to memcg Clearing oldpage.PG_dirty decrements the charged memcg's dirty page count. However, because newpage is not yet charged, setting newpage.PG_dirty does not increment the memcg's dirty page count. After migration completes newpage.PG_dirty is eventually cleared, often in account_page_cleaned(). At this time newpage is charged to a memcg so the memcg's dirty page count is decremented which causes underflow because the count was not previously incremented by migration. This underflow causes balance_dirty_pages() to see a very large unsigned number of dirty memcg pages which leads to aggressive throttling of buffered writes by processes in non root memcg. This issue: - can harm performance of non root memcg buffered writes. - can report too small (even negative) values in memory.stat[(total_)dirty] counters of all memcg, including the root. To avoid polluting migrate.c with #ifdef CONFIG_MEMCG checks, introduce page_memcg() and set_page_memcg() helpers.

2015-10-01mm: hugetlbfs: skip shared VMAs when unmapping private pages to satisfy a faultMel Gorman
SunDong reported the following on https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103841 I think I find a linux bug, I have the test cases is constructed. I can stable recurring problems in fedora22(4.0.4) kernel version, arch for x86_64. I construct transparent huge page, when the parent and child process with MAP_SHARE, MAP_PRIVATE way to access the same huge page area, it has the opportunity to lead to huge page copy on write failure, and then it will munmap the child corresponding mmap area, but then the child mmap area with VM_MAYSHARE attributes, child process munmap this area can trigger VM_BUG_ON in set_vma_resv_flags functions (vma - > vm_flags & VM_MAYSHARE). There were a number of problems with the report (e.g. it's hugetlbfs that triggers this, not transparent huge pages) but it was fundamentally correct in that a VM_BUG_ON in set_vma_resv_flags() can be triggered that looks like this vma ffff8804651fd0d0 start 00007fc474e00000 end 00007fc475e00000 next ffff8804651fd018 prev ffff8804651fd188 mm ffff88046b1b1800 prot 8000000000000027 anon_vma (null) vm_ops ffffffff8182a7a0 pgoff 0 file ffff88106bdb9800 private_data (null) flags: 0x84400fb(read|write|shared|mayread|maywrite|mayexec|mayshare|dontexpand|hugetlb) ------------ kernel BUG at mm/hugetlb.c:462!

PowerEdge R810/0TT6JF, BIOS 2.7.4 04/26/2012 set_vma_resv_flags+0x2d/0x30 The VM_BUG_ON is correct because private and shared mappings have different reservation accounting but the warning clearly shows that the VMA is shared. When a private COW fails to allocate a new page then only the process that created the VMA gets the page -- all the children unmap the page. If the children access that data in the future then they get killed. The problem is that the same file is mapped shared and private. During the COW, the allocation fails, the VMAs are traversed to unmap the other private pages but a shared VMA is found and the bug is triggered. This patch identifies such VMAs and skips them.

2015-10-01mm/slab: fix unexpected index mapping result of kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE+1)Joonsoo Kim
Commit description is copied from the original post of this bug: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.mm/135349 Kernels after v3.9 use kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1) to get the next larger cache size than the size index INDEX_NODE mapping. In kernels 3.9 and earlier we used malloc_sizes[INDEX_L3 + 1].cs_size. However, sometimes we can't get the right output we expected via kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1), causing a BUG(). The mapping table in the latest kernel is like: index = {0, 1, 2 , 3, 4, 5, 6, n} size = {0, 96, 192, 8, 16, 32, 64, 2^n} The mapping table before 3.10 is like this: index = {0 , 1 , 2, 3, 4 , 5 , 6, n} size = {32, 64, 96, 128, 192, 256, 512, 2^(n+3)} The problem on my mips64 machine is as follows: (1) When configured DEBUG_SLAB && DEBUG_PAGEALLOC && DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC && DEBUG_SPINLOCK, the sizeof(struct kmem_cache_node) will be "150", and the macro INDEX_NODE turns out to be "2": #define INDEX_NODE kmalloc_index(sizeof(struct kmem_cache_node)) (2) Then the result of kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1) is 8. (3) Then "if(size >= kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1)" will lead to "size = PAGE_SIZE". (4) Then "if ((size >= (PAGE_SIZE >> 3))" test will be satisfied and "flags |= CFLGS_OFF_SLAB" will be covered. (5) if (flags & CFLGS_OFF_SLAB)" test will be satisfied and will go to "cachep->slabp_cache = kmalloc_slab(slab_size, 0u)", and the result here may be NULL while kernel bootup. (6) Finally,"BUG_ON(ZERO_OR_NULL_PTR(cachep->slabp_cache));" causes the BUG info as the following shows (may be only mips64 has this problem): This patch fixes the problem of kmalloc_size(INDEX_NODE + 1) and removes the BUG by adding 'size >= 256' check to guarantee that all necessary small sized slabs are initialized regardless sequence of slab size in mapping table.

2015-09-22mm, dax: VMA with vm_ops->pfn_mkwrite wants to be write-notifiedKirill A. Shutemov
For VM_PFNMAP and VM_MIXEDMAP we use vm_ops->pfn_mkwrite instead of vm_ops->page_mkwrite to notify abort write access. This means we want vma->vm_page_prot to be write-protected if the VMA provides this vm_ops. A theoretical scenario that will cause these missed events is: On writable mapping with vm_ops->pfn_mkwrite, but without vm_ops->page_mkwrite: read fault followed by write access to the pfn. Writable pte will be set up on read fault and write fault will not be generated. I found it examining Dave's complaint on generic/080: http://lkml.kernel.org/g/20150831233803.GO3902@dastard Although I don't think it's the reason.

This is basically four patchsets from Tejun, that improve our buffered cgroup writeback. It was dependent on the other cgroup changes, but they went in earlier in this cycle. Series 1 is set of 5 patches that has cgroup writeback updates: - bdi_writeback iteration fix which could lead to some wb's being skipped or repeated during e.g. sync under memory pressure. - Simplification of wb work wait mechanism. - Writeback tracepoints updated to report cgroup. Series 2 is is a set of updates for the CFQ cgroup writeback handling: cfq has always charged all async IOs to the root cgroup. It didn't have much choice as writeback didn't know about cgroups and there was no way to tell who to blame for a given writeback IO. writeback finally grew support for cgroups and now tags each writeback IO with the appropriate cgroup to charge it against. This patchset updates cfq so that it follows the blkcg each bio is tagged with. Async cfq_queues are now shared across cfq_group, which is per-cgroup, instead of per-request_queue cfq_data. This makes all IOs follow the weight based IO resource distribution implemented by cfq. - Switched from GFP_ATOMIC to GFP_NOWAIT as suggested by Jeff. - Other misc review points addressed, acks added and rebased. Series 3 is the blkcg policy cleanup patches: This patchset contains assorted cleanups for blkcg_policy methods and blk[c]g_policy_data handling. - alloc/free added for blkg_policy_data. exit dropped. - alloc/free added for blkcg_policy_data. - blk-throttle's async percpu allocation is replaced with direct allocation. - all methods now take blk[c]g_policy_data instead of blkcg_gq or blkcg. And finally, series 4 is a set of patches cleaning up the blkcg stats handling: blkcg's stats have always been somwhat of a mess. This patchset tries to improve the situation a bit. - The following patches added to consolidate blkcg entry point and blkg creation. This is in itself is an improvement and helps colllecting common stats on bio issue. - per-blkg stats now accounted on bio issue rather than request completion so that bio based and request based drivers can behave the same way. The issue was spotted by Vivek. - cfq-iosched implements custom recursive stats and blk-throttle implements custom per-cpu stats.

2015-09-10mm: introduce idle page trackingVladimir Davydov
Knowing the portion of memory that is not used by a certain application or memory cgroup (idle memory) can be useful for partitioning the system efficiently, e.g. by setting memory cgroup limits appropriately. Currently, the only means to estimate the amount of idle memory provided by the kernel is /proc/PID/{clear_refs,smaps}: the user can clear the access bit for all pages mapped to a particular process by writing 1 to clear_refs, wait for some time, and then count smaps:Referenced. However, this method has two serious shortcomings: - it does not count unmapped file pages - it affects the reclaimer logic To overcome these drawbacks, this patch introduces two new page flags, Idle and Young, and a new sysfs file, /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap. A page's Idle flag can only be set from userspace by setting bit in /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap at the offset corresponding to the page, and it is cleared whenever the page is accessed either through page tables (it is cleared in page_referenced() in this case) or using the read(2) system call (mark_page_accessed()). Thus by setting the Idle flag for pages of a particular workload, which can be found e.g. by reading /proc/PID/pagemap, waiting for some time to let the workload access its working set, and then reading the bitmap file, one can estimate the amount of pages that are not used by the workload. The Young page flag is used to avoid interference with the memory reclaimer. A page's Young flag is set whenever the Access bit of a page table entry pointing to the page is cleared by writing to the bitmap file. If page_referenced() is called on a Young page, it will add 1 to its return value, therefore concealing the fact that the Access bit was cleared. Note, since there is no room for extra page flags on 32 bit, this feature uses extended page flags when compiled on 32 bit.

2015-09-10mmu-notifier: add clear_young callbackVladimir Davydov
In the scope of the idle memory tracking feature, which is introduced by the following patch, we need to clear the referenced/accessed bit not only in primary, but also in secondary ptes. The latter is required in order to estimate wss of KVM VMs. At the same time we want to avoid flushing tlb, because it is quite expensive and it won't really affect the final result. Currently, there is no function for clearing pte young bit that would meet our requirements, so this patch introduces one. To achieve that we have to add a new mmu-notifier callback, clear_young, since there is no method for testing-and-clearing a secondary pte w/o flushing tlb. The new method is not mandatory and currently only implemented by KVM.

2015-09-10hwpoison: use page_cgroup_ino for filtering by memcgVladimir Davydov
Hwpoison allows to filter pages by memory cgroup ino. Currently, it calls try_get_mem_cgroup_from_page to obtain the cgroup from a page and then its ino using cgroup_ino, but now we have a helper method for that, page_cgroup_ino, so use it instead. This patch also loosens the hwpoison memcg filter dependency rules - it makes it depend on CONFIG_MEMCG instead of CONFIG_MEMCG_SWAP, because hwpoison memcg filter does not require anything (nor it used to) from CONFIG_MEMCG_SWAP side.

2015-09-10memcg: add page_cgroup_ino helperVladimir Davydov
This patchset introduces a new user API for tracking user memory pages that have not been used for a given period of time. The purpose of this is to provide the userspace with the means of tracking a workload's working set, i.e. the set of pages that are actively used by the workload. Knowing the working set size can be useful for partitioning the system more efficiently, e.g. by tuning memory cgroup limits appropriately, or for job placement within a compute cluster. ==== USE CASES ==== The unified cgroup hierarchy has memory.low and memory.high knobs, which are defined as the low and high boundaries for the workload working set size. However, the working set size of a workload may be unknown or change in time. With this patch set, one can periodically estimate the amount of memory unused by each cgroup and tune their memory.low and memory.high parameters accordingly, therefore optimizing the overall memory utilization. Another use case is balancing workloads within a compute cluster. Knowing how much memory is not really used by a workload unit may help take a more optimal decision when considering migrating the unit to another node within the cluster. Also, as noted by Minchan, this would be useful for per-process reclaim (https://lwn.net/Articles/545668/). With idle tracking, we could reclaim idle pages only by smart user memory manager. ==== USER API ==== The user API consists of two new files: * /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap. This file implements a bitmap where each bit corresponds to a page, indexed by PFN. When the bit is set, the corresponding page is idle. A page is considered idle if it has not been accessed since it was marked idle. To mark a page idle one should set the bit corresponding to the page by writing to the file. A value written to the file is OR-ed with the current bitmap value. Only user memory pages can be marked idle, for other page types input is silently ignored. Writing to this file beyond max PFN results in the ENXIO error. Only available when CONFIG_IDLE_PAGE_TRACKING is set. This file can be used to estimate the amount of pages that are not used by a particular workload as follows: 1. mark all pages of interest idle by setting corresponding bits in the /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap 2. wait until the workload accesses its working set 3. read /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap and count the number of bits set * /proc/kpagecgroup. This file contains a 64-bit inode number of the memory cgroup each page is charged to, indexed by PFN. Only available when CONFIG_MEMCG is set. This file can be used to find all pages (including unmapped file pages) accounted to a particular cgroup. Using /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap, one can then estimate the cgroup working set size. For an example of using these files for estimating the amount of unused memory pages per each memory cgroup, please see the script attached below. ==== REASONING ==== The reason to introduce the new user API instead of using /proc/PID/{clear_refs,smaps} is that the latter has two serious drawbacks: - it does not count unmapped file pages - it affects the reclaimer logic The new API attempts to overcome them both. For more details on how it is achieved, please see the comment to patch 6. ==== PATCHSET STRUCTURE ==== The patch set is organized as follows: - patch 1 adds page_cgroup_ino() helper for the sake of /proc/kpagecgroup and patches 2-3 do related cleanup - patch 4 adds /proc/kpagecgroup, which reports cgroup ino each page is charged to - patch 5 introduces a new mmu notifier callback, clear_young, which is a lightweight version of clear_flush_young; it is used in patch 6 - patch 6 implements the idle page tracking feature, including the userspace API, /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap - patch 7 exports idle flag via /proc/kpageflags ==== SIMILAR WORKS ==== Originally, the patch for tracking idle memory was proposed back in 2011 by Michel Lespinasse (see http://lwn.net/Articles/459269/). The main difference between Michel's patch and this one is that Michel implemented a kernel space daemon for estimating idle memory size per cgroup while this patch only provides the userspace with the minimal API for doing the job, leaving the rest up to the userspace. However, they both share the same idea of Idle/Young page flags to avoid affecting the reclaimer logic. ==== PERFORMANCE EVALUATION ==== SPECjvm2008 (https://www.spec.org/jvm2008/) was used to evaluate the performance impact introduced by this patch set. Three runs were carried out: - base: kernel without the patch - patched: patched kernel, the feature is not used - patched-active: patched kernel, 1 minute-period daemon is used for tracking idle memory For tracking idle memory, idlememstat utility was used: https://github.com/locker/idlememstat testcase base patched patched-active compiler 537.40 ( 0.00)% 532.26 (-0.96)% 538.31 ( 0.17)% compress 305.47 ( 0.00)% 301.08 (-1.44)% 300.71 (-1.56)% crypto 284.32 ( 0.00)% 282.21 (-0.74)% 284.87 ( 0.19)% derby 411.05 ( 0.00)% 413.44 ( 0.58)% 412.07 ( 0.25)% mpegaudio 189.96 ( 0.00)% 190.87 ( 0.48)% 189.42 (-0.28)% scimark.large 46.85 ( 0.00)% 46.41 (-0.94)% 47.83 ( 2.09)% scimark.small 412.91 ( 0.00)% 415.41 ( 0.61)% 421.17 ( 2.00)% serial 204.23 ( 0.00)% 213.46 ( 4.52)% 203.17 (-0.52)% startup 36.76 ( 0.00)% 35.49 (-3.45)% 35.64 (-3.05)% sunflow 115.34 ( 0.00)% 115.08 (-0.23)% 117.37 ( 1.76)% xml 620.55 ( 0.00)% 619.95 (-0.10)% 620.39 (-0.03)% composite 211.50 ( 0.00)% 211.15 (-0.17)% 211.67 ( 0.08)% time idlememstat: 17.20user 65.16system 2:15:23elapsed 1%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 8476maxresident)k 448inputs+40outputs (1major+36052minor)pagefaults 0swaps ==== SCRIPT FOR COUNTING IDLE PAGES PER CGROUP ==== #! /usr/bin/python # import os import stat import errno import struct CGROUP_MOUNT = "/sys/fs/cgroup/memory" BUFSIZE = 8 * 1024 # must be multiple of 8 def get_hugepage_size(): with open("/proc/meminfo", "r") as f: for s in f: k, v = s.split(":") if k == "Hugepagesize": return int(v.split()[0]) * 1024 PAGE_SIZE = os.sysconf("SC_PAGE_SIZE") HUGEPAGE_SIZE = get_hugepage_size() def set_idle(): f = open("/sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap", "wb", BUFSIZE) while True: try: f.write(struct.pack("Q", pow(2, 64) - 1)) except IOError as err: if err.errno == errno.ENXIO: break raise f.close() def count_idle(): f_flags = open("/proc/kpageflags", "rb", BUFSIZE) f_cgroup = open("/proc/kpagecgroup", "rb", BUFSIZE) with open("/sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap", "rb", BUFSIZE) as f: while f.read(BUFSIZE): pass # update idle flag idlememsz = {} while True: s1, s2 = f_flags.read(8), f_cgroup.read(8) if not s1 or not s2: break flags, = struct.unpack('Q', s1) cgino, = struct.unpack('Q', s2) unevictable = (flags >> 18) & 1 huge = (flags >> 22) & 1 idle = (flags >> 25) & 1 if idle and not unevictable: idlememsz[cgino] = idlememsz.get(cgino, 0) + \ (HUGEPAGE_SIZE if huge else PAGE_SIZE) f_flags.close() f_cgroup.close() return idlememsz if __name__ == "__main__": print "Setting the idle flag for each page..." set_idle() raw_input("Wait until the workload accesses its working set, " "then press Enter") print "Counting idle pages..." idlememsz = count_idle() for dir, subdirs, files in os.walk(CGROUP_MOUNT): ino = os.stat(dir)[stat.ST_INO] print dir + ": " + str(idlememsz.get(ino, 0) / 1024) + " kB" ==== END SCRIPT ==== This patch (of 8): Add page_cgroup_ino() helper to memcg.

2015-09-10zpool: add zpool_has_pool()Dan Streetman
This series makes creation of the zpool and compressor dynamic, so that they can be changed at runtime. This makes using/configuring zswap easier, as before this zswap had to be configured at boot time, using boot params. This uses a single list to track both the zpool and compressor together, although Seth had mentioned an alternative which is to track the zpools and compressors using separate lists. In the most common case, only a single zpool and single compressor, using one list is slightly simpler than using two lists, and for the uncommon case of multiple zpools and/or compressors, using one list is slightly less simple (and uses slightly more memory, probably) than using two lists. This patch (of 4): Add zpool_has_pool() function, indicating if the specified type of zpool is available (i.e. zsmalloc or zbud). This allows checking if a pool is available, without actually trying to allocate it, similar to crypto_has_alg(). This is used by a following patch to zswap that enables the dynamic runtime creation of zswap zpools.
