Commit 947e9762a8dd ("writeback: update wb_over_bg_thresh() to use
wb_domain aware operations") unintentionally changed this function's
meaning from "are there more dirty pages than the background writeback
threshold" to "are there more dirty pages than the writeback threshold".
The background writeback threshold is typically half of the writeback
threshold, so this had the effect of raising the number of dirty pages
required to cause a writeback worker to perform background writeout.
This can cause a very severe performance regression when a BDI uses
BDI_CAP_STRICTLIMIT because balance_dirty_pages() and the writeback worker
can now disagree on whether writeback should be initiated.
For example, in a system having 1GB of RAM, a single spinning disk, and
a "pass-through" FUSE filesystem mounted over the disk, application code
mmapped a 128MB file on the disk and was randomly dirtying pages in that
mapping.
Because FUSE uses strictlimit and has a default max_ratio of only 1%,
in balance_dirty_pages, thresh is ~200, bg_thresh is ~100, and the
dirty_freerun_ceiling is the average of those, ~150. So, it pauses the
dirtying processes when we have 151 dirty pages and wakes up a
background writeback worker. But the worker tests the wrong threshold
(200 instead of 100), so it does not initiate writeback and just
returns.
Thus, balance_dirty_pages keeps looping, sleeping and then waking up the
worker who will do nothing. It remains stuck in this state until the few
dirty pages that we have finally expire and we write them back for that
reason. Then the whole process repeats, resulting in near-zero
throughput through the FUSE BDI.
The fix is to call the parameterized variant of wb_calc_thresh, so that
the worker will do writeback if the bg_thresh is exceeded which was the
bahavior before the referenced commit.

wb_domain aware operations")

Merge PAGE_CACHE_SIZE removal patches from Kirill Shutemov:
"PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.
The first patch with most changes has been done with coccinelle. The
second is manual fixups on top.
The third patch removes macros definition"
[ I was planning to apply this just before rc2, but then I spaced out,
so here it is right _after_ rc2 instead.
As Kirill suggested as a possibility, I could have decided to only
merge the first two patches, and leave the old interfaces for
compatibility, but I'd rather get it all done and any out-of-tree
modules and patches can trivially do the converstion while still also
working with older kernels, so there is little reason to try to
maintain the redundant legacy model. - Linus ]
* PAGE_CACHE_SIZE-removal:
mm: drop PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} definition
mm, fs: remove remaining PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} usage
mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.
This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.
We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.
Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.
Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
not.
The changes are pretty straight-forward:
- <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>;
- PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};
- page_cache_get() -> get_page();
- page_cache_release() -> put_page();
This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.
The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.
There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

Commit bb29902a7515 ("oom, oom_reaper: protect oom_reaper_list using
simpler way") has simplified the check for tasks already enqueued for
the oom reaper by checking tsk->oom_reaper_list != NULL. This check is
not sufficient because the tsk might be the head of the queue without
any other tasks queued and then we would simply lockup looping on the
same task. Fix the condition by checking for the head as well.

The recently introduced batched invalidations mechanism uses its own
mechanism for shootdown. However, it does wrong accounting of
interrupts (e.g., inc_irq_stat is called for local invalidations),
trace-points (e.g., TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN for local invalidations) and
may break some platforms as it bypasses the invalidation mechanisms of
Xen and SGI UV.
This patch reuses the existing TLB flushing mechnaisms instead. We use
NULL as mm to indicate a global invalidation is required.

If
- generic_file_read_iter() gets called with a zero read length,
- the read offset is at a page boundary,
- IOCB_DIRECT is not set
- and the page in question hasn't made it into the page cache yet,
then do_generic_file_read() will trigger a readahead with a req_size hint
of zero.
Since roundup_pow_of_two(0) is undefined, UBSAN reports
UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in include/linux/log2.h:63:13
shift exponent 64 is too large for 64-bit type 'long unsigned int'
CPU: 3 PID: 1017 Comm: sa1 Tainted: G L 4.5.0-next-20160318+ #14

when get_init_ra_size() gets called from ondemand_readahead().
The net effect is that the initial readahead size is arch dependent for
requested read lengths of zero: for example, since
1UL << (sizeof(unsigned long) * 8)
evaluates to 1 on x86 while its result is 0 on ARMv7, the initial readahead
size becomes 4 on the former and 0 on the latter.
What's more, whether or not the file access timestamp is updated for zero
length reads is decided differently for the two cases of IOCB_DIRECT
being set or cleared: in the first case, generic_file_read_iter()
explicitly skips updating that timestamp while in the latter case, it is
always updated through the call to do_generic_file_read().
According to POSIX, zero length reads "do not modify the last data access
timestamp" and thus, the IOCB_DIRECT behaviour is POSIXly correct.
Let generic_file_read_iter() unconditionally check the requested read
length at its entry and return immediately with success if it is zero.

Implement the stack depot and provide CONFIG_STACKDEPOT. Stack depot
will allow KASAN store allocation/deallocation stack traces for memory
chunks. The stack traces are stored in a hash table and referenced by
handles which reside in the kasan_alloc_meta and kasan_free_meta
structures in the allocated memory chunks.
IRQ stack traces are cut below the IRQ entry point to avoid unnecessary
duplication.
Right now stackdepot support is only enabled in SLAB allocator. Once
KASAN features in SLAB are on par with those in SLUB we can switch SLUB
to stackdepot as well, thus removing the dependency on SLUB stack
bookkeeping, which wastes a lot of memory.
This patch is based on the "mm: kasan: stack depots" patch originally
prepared by Dmitry Chernenkov.
Joonsoo has said that he plans to reuse the stackdepot code for the
mm/page_owner.c debugging facility.

Hanjun Guo has reported that a CMA stress test causes broken accounting of
CMA and free pages:
> Before the test, I got:
> -bash-4.3# cat /proc/meminfo | grep Cma
> CmaTotal: 204800 kB
> CmaFree: 195044 kB
>
>
> After running the test:
> -bash-4.3# cat /proc/meminfo | grep Cma
> CmaTotal: 204800 kB
> CmaFree: 6602584 kB
>
> So the freed CMA memory is more than total..
>
> Also the the MemFree is more than mem total:

> -bash-4.3# cat /proc/meminfo
> MemTotal: 16342016 kB
> MemFree: 22367268 kB
> MemAvailable: 22370528 kB
Laura Abbott has confirmed the issue and suspected the freepage accounting
rewrite around 3.18/4.0 by Joonsoo Kim. Joonsoo had a theory that this is
caused by unexpected merging between MIGRATE_ISOLATE and MIGRATE_CMA
pageblocks:
> CMA isolates MAX_ORDER aligned blocks, but, during the process,
> partialy isolated block exists. If MAX_ORDER is 11 and
> pageblock_order is 9, two pageblocks make up MAX_ORDER
> aligned block and I can think following scenario because pageblock

>
> If some pages are freed at this intermediate state such as IC or CI,

This was supposed to be prevented by CMA operating on MAX_ORDER blocks,
but since it doesn't hold the zone->lock between pageblocks, a race
window does exist.
It's also likely that unexpected merging can occur between
MIGRATE_ISOLATE and non-CMA pageblocks. This should be prevented in
__free_one_page() since commit 3c605096d315 ("mm/page_alloc: restrict
max order of merging on isolated pageblock"). However, we only check
the migratetype of the pageblock where buddy merging has been initiated,
not the migratetype of the buddy pageblock (or group of pageblocks)
which can be MIGRATE_ISOLATE.
Joonsoo has suggested checking for buddy migratetype as part of
page_is_buddy(), but that would add extra checks in allocator hotpath
and bloat-o-meter has shown significant code bloat (the function is
inline).
This patch reduces the bloat at some expense of more complicated code.
The buddy-merging while-loop in __free_one_page() is initially bounded
to pageblock_border and without any migratetype checks. The checks are
placed outside, bumping the max_order if merging is allowed, and
returning to the while-loop with a statement which can't be possibly
considered harmful.
This fixes the accounting bug and also removes the arguably weird state
in the original commit 3c605096d315 where buddies could be left
unmerged.

After "oom: clear TIF_MEMDIE after oom_reaper managed to unmap the
address space" oom_reaper will call exit_oom_victim on the target task
after it is done. This might however race with the PM freezer:
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2
freeze_processes
try_to_freeze_tasks
# Allocation request
out_of_memory
oom_killer_disable
wake_oom_reaper(P1)
__oom_reap_task
exit_oom_victim(P1)
wait_event(oom_victims==0)
[...]
do_exit(P1)
perform IO/interfere with the freezer
which breaks the oom_killer_disable semantic. We no longer have a
guarantee that the oom victim won't interfere with the freezer because
it might be anywhere on the way to do_exit while the freezer thinks the
task has already terminated. It might trigger IO or touch devices which
are frozen already.
In order to close this race, make the oom_reaper thread freezable. This
will work because
a) already running oom_reaper will block freezer to enter the
quiescent state
b) wake_oom_reaper will not wake up the reaper after it has been
frozen
c) the only way to call exit_oom_victim after try_to_freeze_tasks
is from the oom victim's context when we know the further
interference shouldn't be possible

Tetsuo has reported that oom_kill_allocating_task=1 will cause
oom_reaper_list corruption because oom_kill_process doesn't follow
standard OOM exclusion (aka ignores TIF_MEMDIE) and allows to enqueue
the same task multiple times - e.g. by sacrificing the same child
multiple times.
This patch fixes the issue by introducing a new MMF_OOM_KILLED mm flag
which is set in oom_kill_process atomically and oom reaper is disabled
if the flag was already set.

wake_oom_reaper has allowed only 1 oom victim to be queued. The main
reason for that was the simplicity as other solutions would require some
way of queuing. The current approach is racy and that was deemed
sufficient as the oom_reaper is considered a best effort approach to
help with oom handling when the OOM victim cannot terminate in a
reasonable time. The race could lead to missing an oom victim which can
get stuck
out_of_memory
wake_oom_reaper
cmpxchg // OK
oom_reaper
oom_reap_task
__oom_reap_task
oom_victim terminates
atomic_inc_not_zero // fail
out_of_memory
wake_oom_reaper
cmpxchg // fails
task_to_reap = NULL
This race requires 2 OOM invocations in a short time period which is not
very likely but certainly not impossible. E.g. the original victim
might have not released a lot of memory for some reason.
The situation would improve considerably if wake_oom_reaper used a more
robust queuing. This is what this patch implements. This means adding
oom_reaper_list list_head into task_struct (eat a hole before embeded
thread_struct for that purpose) and a oom_reaper_lock spinlock for
queuing synchronization. wake_oom_reaper will then add the task on the
queue and oom_reaper will dequeue it.

When oom_reaper manages to unmap all the eligible vmas there shouldn't
be much of the freable memory held by the oom victim left anymore so it
makes sense to clear the TIF_MEMDIE flag for the victim and allow the
OOM killer to select another task.
The lack of TIF_MEMDIE also means that the victim cannot access memory
reserves anymore but that shouldn't be a problem because it would get
the access again if it needs to allocate and hits the OOM killer again
due to the fatal_signal_pending resp. PF_EXITING check. We can safely
hide the task from the OOM killer because it is clearly not a good
candidate anymore as everyhing reclaimable has been torn down already.
This patch will allow to cap the time an OOM victim can keep TIF_MEMDIE
and thus hold off further global OOM killer actions granted the oom
reaper is able to take mmap_sem for the associated mm struct. This is
not guaranteed now but further steps should make sure that mmap_sem for
write should be blocked killable which will help to reduce such a lock
contention. This is not done by this patch.
Note that exit_oom_victim might be called on a remote task from
__oom_reap_task now so we have to check and clear the flag atomically
otherwise we might race and underflow oom_victims or wake up waiters too
early.

This patch (of 5):
This is based on the idea from Mel Gorman discussed during LSFMM 2015
and independently brought up by Oleg Nesterov.
The OOM killer currently allows to kill only a single task in a good
hope that the task will terminate in a reasonable time and frees up its
memory. Such a task (oom victim) will get an access to memory reserves
via mark_oom_victim to allow a forward progress should there be a need
for additional memory during exit path.
It has been shown (e.g. by Tetsuo Handa) that it is not that hard to
construct workloads which break the core assumption mentioned above and
the OOM victim might take unbounded amount of time to exit because it
might be blocked in the uninterruptible state waiting for an event (e.g.
lock) which is blocked by another task looping in the page allocator.
This patch reduces the probability of such a lockup by introducing a
specialized kernel thread (oom_reaper) which tries to reclaim additional
memory by preemptively reaping the anonymous or swapped out memory owned
by the oom victim under an assumption that such a memory won't be needed
when its owner is killed and kicked from the userspace anyway. There is
one notable exception to this, though, if the OOM victim was in the
process of coredumping the result would be incomplete. This is
considered a reasonable constrain because the overall system health is
more important than debugability of a particular application.
A kernel thread has been chosen because we need a reliable way of
invocation so workqueue context is not appropriate because all the
workers might be busy (e.g. allocating memory). Kswapd which sounds
like another good fit is not appropriate as well because it might get
blocked on locks during reclaim as well.
oom_reaper has to take mmap_sem on the target task for reading so the
solution is not 100% because the semaphore might be held or blocked for
write but the probability is reduced considerably wrt. basically any
lock blocking forward progress as described above. In order to prevent
from blocking on the lock without any forward progress we are using only
a trylock and retry 10 times with a short sleep in between. Users of
mmap_sem which need it for write should be carefully reviewed to use
_killable waiting as much as possible and reduce allocations requests
done with the lock held to absolute minimum to reduce the risk even
further.
The API between oom killer and oom reaper is quite trivial.
wake_oom_reaper updates mm_to_reap with cmpxchg to guarantee only
NULL->mm transition and oom_reaper clear this atomically once it is done
with the work. This means that only a single mm_struct can be reaped at
the time. As the operation is potentially disruptive we are trying to
limit it to the ncessary minimum and the reaper blocks any updates while
it operates on an mm. mm_struct is pinned by mm_count to allow parallel
exit_mmap and a race is detected by atomic_inc_not_zero(mm_users).

The mprotect(PROT_READ) fails when called by the READ_IMPLIES_EXEC
binary on a memory mapped file located on non-exec fs. The mprotect
does not check whether fs is _executable_ or not. The PROT_EXEC flag is
set automatically even if a memory mapped file is located on non-exec
fs. Fix it by checking whether a memory mapped file is located on a
non-exec fs. If so the PROT_EXEC is not implied by the PROT_READ. The
implementation uses the VM_MAYEXEC flag set properly in mmap. Now it is
consistent with mmap.
I did the isolated tests (PT_GNU_STACK X/NX, multiple VMAs, X/NX fs). I
also patched the official 3.19.0-47-generic Ubuntu 14.04 kernel and it
seems to work.

kcov provides code coverage collection for coverage-guided fuzzing
(randomized testing). Coverage-guided fuzzing is a testing technique
that uses coverage feedback to determine new interesting inputs to a
system. A notable user-space example is AFL
(http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/afl/). However, this technique is not
widely used for kernel testing due to missing compiler and kernel
support.
kcov does not aim to collect as much coverage as possible. It aims to
collect more or less stable coverage that is function of syscall inputs.
To achieve this goal it does not collect coverage in soft/hard
interrupts and instrumentation of some inherently non-deterministic or
non-interesting parts of kernel is disbled (e.g. scheduler, locking).
Currently there is a single coverage collection mode (tracing), but the
API anticipates additional collection modes. Initially I also
implemented a second mode which exposes coverage in a fixed-size hash
table of counters (what Quentin used in his original patch). I've
dropped the second mode for simplicity.
This patch adds the necessary support on kernel side. The complimentary
compiler support was added in gcc revision 231296.
We've used this support to build syzkaller system call fuzzer, which has
found 90 kernel bugs in just 2 months:
https://github.com/google/syzkaller/wiki/Found-Bugs
We've also found 30+ bugs in our internal systems with syzkaller.
Another (yet unexplored) direction where kcov coverage would greatly
help is more traditional "blob mutation". For example, mounting a
random blob as a filesystem, or receiving a random blob over wire.
Why not gcov. Typical fuzzing loop looks as follows: (1) reset
coverage, (2) execute a bit of code, (3) collect coverage, repeat. A
typical coverage can be just a dozen of basic blocks (e.g. an invalid
input). In such context gcov becomes prohibitively expensive as
reset/collect coverage steps depend on total number of basic
blocks/edges in program (in case of kernel it is about 2M). Cost of
kcov depends only on number of executed basic blocks/edges. On top of
that, kernel requires per-thread coverage because there are always
background threads and unrelated processes that also produce coverage.
With inlined gcov instrumentation per-thread coverage is not possible.
kcov exposes kernel PCs and control flow to user-space which is
insecure. But debugfs should not be mapped as user accessible.
Based on a patch by Quentin Casasnovas.

Commit b430e9d1c6d4 ("remove compressed copy from zram in-memory")
applied swap_slot_free_notify call in *end_swap_bio_read* to remove
duplicated memory between zram and memory.
However, with the introduction of rw_page in zram: 8c7f01025f7b ("zram:
implement rw_page operation of zram"), it became void because rw_page
doesn't need bio.
Memory footprint is really important in embedded platforms which have
small memory, for example, 512M) recently because it could start to kill
processes if memory footprint exceeds some threshold by LMK or some
similar memory management modules.
This patch restores the function for rw_page, thereby eliminating this
duplication.

Pull x86 protection key support from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree adds support for a new memory protection hardware feature
that is available in upcoming Intel CPUs: 'protection keys' (pkeys).
There's a background article at LWN.net:
https://lwn.net/Articles/643797/
The gist is that protection keys allow the encoding of
user-controllable permission masks in the pte. So instead of having a
fixed protection mask in the pte (which needs a system call to change
and works on a per page basis), the user can map a (handful of)
protection mask variants and can change the masks runtime relatively
cheaply, without having to change every single page in the affected
virtual memory range.
This allows the dynamic switching of the protection bits of large
amounts of virtual memory, via user-space instructions. It also
allows more precise control of MMU permission bits: for example the
executable bit is separate from the read bit (see more about that
below).
This tree adds the MM infrastructure and low level x86 glue needed for
that, plus it adds a high level API to make use of protection keys -
if a user-space application calls:
mmap(..., PROT_EXEC);
or
mprotect(ptr, sz, PROT_EXEC);
(note PROT_EXEC-only, without PROT_READ/WRITE), the kernel will notice
this special case, and will set a special protection key on this
memory range. It also sets the appropriate bits in the Protection
Keys User Rights (PKRU) register so that the memory becomes unreadable
and unwritable.
So using protection keys the kernel is able to implement 'true'
PROT_EXEC on x86 CPUs: without protection keys PROT_EXEC implies
PROT_READ as well. Unreadable executable mappings have security
advantages: they cannot be read via information leaks to figure out
ASLR details, nor can they be scanned for ROP gadgets - and they
cannot be used by exploits for data purposes either.
We know about no user-space code that relies on pure PROT_EXEC
mappings today, but binary loaders could start making use of this new
feature to map binaries and libraries in a more secure fashion.
There is other pending pkeys work that offers more high level system
call APIs to manage protection keys - but those are not part of this
pull request.
Right now there's a Kconfig that controls this feature
(CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS) that is default enabled
(like most x86 CPU feature enablement code that has no runtime
overhead), but it's not user-configurable at the moment. If there's
any serious problem with this then we can make it configurable and/or
flip the default"

With huge pages, it is convenient to have the radix tree be able to
return an entry that covers multiple indices. Previous attempts to deal
with the problem have involved inserting N duplicate entries, which is a
waste of memory and leads to problems trying to handle aliased tags, or
probing the tree multiple times to find alternative entries which might
cover the requested index.
This approach inserts one canonical entry into the tree for a given
range of indices, and may also insert other entries in order to ensure
that lookups find the canonical entry.
This solution only tolerates inserting powers of two that are greater
than the fanout of the tree. If we wish to expand the radix tree's
abilities to support large-ish pages that is less than the fanout at the
penultimate level of the tree, then we would need to add one more step
in lookup to ensure that any sibling nodes in the final level of the
tree are dereferenced and we return the canonical entry that they

While oom_killer_disable() is called by freeze_processes() after all
user threads except the current thread are frozen, it is possible that
kernel threads invoke the OOM killer and sends SIGKILL to the current
thread due to sharing the thawed victim's memory. Therefore, checking
for SIGKILL is preferable than TIF_MEMDIE.

Add a new column to pool stats, which will tell how many pages ideally
can be freed by class compaction, so it will be easier to analyze
zsmalloc fragmentation.
At the moment, we have only numbers of FULL and ALMOST_EMPTY classes,
but they don't tell us how badly the class is fragmented internally.
The new /sys/kernel/debug/zsmalloc/zramX/classes output look as follows:
class size almost_full almost_empty obj_allocated obj_used pages_used pages_per_zspage freeable
[..]
12 224 0 2 146 5 8 4 4
13 240 0 0 0 0 0 1 0
14 256 1 13 1840 1672 115 1 10
15 272 0 0 0 0 0 1 0

51 848 3 4 361 306 76 4 8

54 896 1 12 117 57 26 2 12
57 944 0 0 0 0 0 3 0
[..]
Total 26 131 12709 10994 1071 134
For example, from this particular output we can easily conclude that
class-896 is heavily fragmented -- it occupies 26 pages, 12 can be freed
by compaction.

uncharge_list() does an unusual list walk because the function can take
regular lists with dedicated list_heads as well as singleton lists where
a single page is passed via the page->lru list node.
This can sometimes lead to confusion as well as suggestions to replace
the loop with a list_for_each_entry(), which wouldn't work.

Setting the original memory.limit_in_bytes hardlimit is subject to a
race condition when the desired value is below the current usage. The
code tries a few times to first reclaim and then see if the usage has
dropped to where we would like it to be, but there is no locking, and
the workload is free to continue making new charges up to the old limit.
Thus, attempting to shrink a workload relies on pure luck and hope that
the workload happens to cooperate.
To fix this in the cgroup2 memory.max knob, do it the other way round:
set the limit first, then try enforcement. And if reclaim is not able
to succeed, trigger OOM kills in the group. Keep going until the new
limit is met, we run out of OOM victims and there's only unreclaimable
memory left, or the task writing to memory.max is killed. This allows
users to shrink groups reliably, and the behavior is consistent with
what happens when new charges are attempted in excess of memory.max.

When setting memory.high below usage, nothing happens until the next
charge comes along, and then it will only reclaim its own charge and not
the now potentially huge excess of the new memory.high. This can cause
groups to stay in excess of their memory.high indefinitely.
To fix that, when shrinking memory.high, kick off a reclaim cycle that
goes after the delta.

Upstream has supported page parallel initialisation for X86 and the boot
time is improved greately. Some tests have been done for Power.
Here is the result I have done with different memory size.
* 4GB memory:
boot time is as the following:
with patch vs without patch: 10.4s vs 24.5s
boot time is improved 57%
* 200GB memory:
boot time looks the same with and without patches.
boot time is about 38s
* 32TB memory:
boot time looks the same with and without patches
boot time is about 160s.
The boot time is much shorter than X86 with 24TB memory.
From community discussion, it costs about 694s for X86 24T system.
Parallel initialisation improves the performance by deferring memory
initilisation to kswap with N kthreads, it should improve the performance
therotically.
In testing on X86, performance is improved greatly with huge memory. But
on Power platform, it is improved greatly with less than 100GB memory.
For huge memory, it is not improved greatly. But it saves the time with
several threads at least, as the following information shows(32TB system
log):
[ 22.648169] node 9 initialised, 16607461 pages in 280ms
[ 22.783772] node 3 initialised, 23937243 pages in 410ms

[ 22.946063] node 1 initialised, 33345485 pages in 580ms
It saves the time about 550*16 ms at least, although it can be ignore to
compare the boot time about 160 seconds. What's more, the boot time is
much shorter on Power even without patches than x86 for huge memory
machine.
So this patchset is still necessary to be enabled for Power.
This patch (of 2):
This patch is based on Mel Gorman's old patch in the mailing list,
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/5/5/280 which is discussed but it is fixed with
a completion to wait for all memory initialised in page_alloc_init_late().
It is to fix the OOM problem on X86 with 24TB memory which allocates
memory in late initialisation. But for Power platform with 32TB memory,
it causes a call trace in vfs_caches_init->inode_init() and inode hash
table needs more memory. So this patch allocates 1GB for 0.25TB/node for
large system as it is mentioned in https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/5/1/627
This call trace is found on Power with 32TB memory, 1024CPUs, 16nodes.
Currently, it only allocates 2GB*16=32GB for early initialisation. But
Dentry cache hash table needes 16GB and Inode cache hash table needs 16GB.
So the system have no enough memory for it. The log from dmesg as the
following:
Dentry cache hash table entries: 2147483648 (order: 18,17179869184 bytes)
vmalloc: allocation failure, allocated 16021913600 of 17179934720 bytes

split_huge_pmd() tries to munlock page with munlock_vma_page(). That
requires the page to locked.
If the is locked by caller, we would get a deadlock:

I don't think the deadlock is triggerable without split_huge_page()
simplifilcation patchset.
But munlock_vma_page() here is wrong: we want to munlock the page
unconditionally, no need in rmap lookup, that munlock_vma_page() does.
Let's use clear_page_mlock() instead. It can be called under ptl.

freeze_page() and unfreeze_page() helpers evolved in rather complex
beasts. It would be nice to cut complexity of this code.
This patch rewrites freeze_page() using standard try_to_unmap().
unfreeze_page() is rewritten with remove_migration_ptes().
The result is much simpler.
But the new variant is somewhat slower for PTE-mapped THPs. Current
helpers iterates over VMAs the compound page is mapped to, and then over
ptes within this VMA. New helpers iterates over small page, then over
VMA the small page mapped to, and only then find relevant pte.
We have short cut for PMD-mapped THP: we directly install migration
entries on PMD split.
I don't think the slowdown is critical, considering how much simpler
result is and that split_huge_page() is quite rare nowadays. It only
happens due memory pressure or migration.

Make remove_migration_ptes() available to be used in split_huge_page().
New parameter 'locked' added: as with try_to_umap() we need a way to
indicate that caller holds rmap lock.
We also shouldn't try to mlock() pte-mapped huge pages: pte-mapeed THP
pages are never mlocked.

Add support for two ttu_flags:
- TTU_SPLIT_HUGE_PMD would split PMD if it's there, before trying to
unmap page;
- TTU_RMAP_LOCKED indicates that caller holds relevant rmap lock;
Also, change rwc->done to !page_mapcount() instead of !page_mapped().
try_to_unmap() works on pte level, so we are really interested in the
mappedness of this small page rather than of the compound page it's a
part of.

This patchset rewrites freeze_page() and unfreeze_page() using
try_to_unmap() and remove_migration_ptes(). Result is much simpler, but
somewhat slower.
Migration 8GiB worth of PMD-mapped THP:
Baseline 20.21 +/- 0.393
Patched 20.73 +/- 0.082
Slowdown 1.03x
It's 3% slower, comparing to 14% in v1. I don't it should be a stopper.
Splitting of PTE-mapped pages slowed more. But this is not a common
case.
Migration 8GiB worth of PMD-mapped THP:
Baseline 20.39 +/- 0.225
Patched 22.43 +/- 0.496
Slowdown 1.10x
rmap_walk_locked() is the same as rmap_walk(), but the caller takes care
of the relevant rmap lock.
This is preparation for switching THP splitting from custom rmap walk in
freeze_page()/unfreeze_page() to the generic one.
There is no support for KSM pages for now: not clear which lock is
implied.
