Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: - Sumanth Korikkar has taught s390 to allocate hotplug-time page frames from hotplugged memory rather than only from main memory. Series "implement "memmap on memory" feature on s390". - More folio conversions from Matthew Wilcox in the series "Convert memcontrol charge moving to use folios" "mm: convert mm counter to take a folio" - Chengming Zhou has optimized zswap's rbtree locking, providing significant reductions in system time and modest but measurable reductions in overall runtimes. The series is "mm/zswap: optimize the scalability of zswap rb-tree". - Chengming Zhou has also provided the series "mm/zswap: optimize zswap lru list" which provides measurable runtime benefits in some swap-intensive situations. - And Chengming Zhou further optimizes zswap in the series "mm/zswap: optimize for dynamic zswap_pools". Measured improvements are modest. - zswap cleanups and simplifications from Yosry Ahmed in the series "mm: zswap: simplify zswap_swapoff()". - In the series "Add DAX ABI for memmap_on_memory", Vishal Verma has contributed several DAX cleanups as well as adding a sysfs tunable to control the memmap_on_memory setting when the dax device is hotplugged as system memory. - Johannes Weiner has added the large series "mm: zswap: cleanups", which does that. - More DAMON work from SeongJae Park in the series "mm/damon: make DAMON debugfs interface deprecation unignorable" "selftests/damon: add more tests for core functionalities and corner cases" "Docs/mm/damon: misc readability improvements" "mm/damon: let DAMOS feeds and tame/auto-tune itself" - In the series "mm/mempolicy: weighted interleave mempolicy and sysfs extension" Rakie Kim has developed a new mempolicy interleaving policy wherein we allocate memory across nodes in a weighted fashion rather than uniformly. This is beneficial in heterogeneous memory environments appearing with CXL. - Christophe Leroy has contributed some cleanup and consolidation work against the ARM pagetable dumping code in the series "mm: ptdump: Refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX and check_wx_pages debugfs attribute". - Luis Chamberlain has added some additional xarray selftesting in the series "test_xarray: advanced API multi-index tests". - Muhammad Usama Anjum has reworked the selftest code to make its human-readable output conform to the TAP ("Test Anything Protocol") format. Amongst other things, this opens up the use of third-party tools to parse and process out selftesting results. - Ryan Roberts has added fork()-time PTE batching of THP ptes in the series "mm/memory: optimize fork() with PTE-mapped THP". Mainly targeted at arm64, this significantly speeds up fork() when the process has a large number of pte-mapped folios. - David Hildenbrand also gets in on the THP pte batching game in his series "mm/memory: optimize unmap/zap with PTE-mapped THP". It implements batching during munmap() and other pte teardown situations. The microbenchmark improvements are nice. - And in the series "Transparent Contiguous PTEs for User Mappings" Ryan Roberts further utilizes arm's pte's contiguous bit ("contpte mappings"). Kernel build times on arm64 improved nicely. Ryan's series "Address some contpte nits" provides some followup work. - In the series "mm/hugetlb: Restore the reservation" Breno Leitao has fixed an obscure hugetlb race which was causing unnecessary page faults. He has also added a reproducer under the selftest code. - In the series "selftests/mm: Output cleanups for the compaction test", Mark Brown did what the title claims. - Kinsey Ho has added the series "mm/mglru: code cleanup and refactoring". - Even more zswap material from Nhat Pham. The series "fix and extend zswap kselftests" does as claimed. - In the series "Introduce cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to fix DAX regression" Mathieu Desnoyers has cleaned up and fixed rather a mess in our handling of DAX on archiecctures which have virtually aliasing data caches. The arm architecture is the main beneficiary. - Lokesh Gidra's series "per-vma locks in userfaultfd" provides dramatic improvements in worst-case mmap_lock hold times during certain userfaultfd operations. - Some page_owner enhancements and maintenance work from Oscar Salvador in his series "page_owner: print stacks and their outstanding allocations" "page_owner: Fixup and cleanup" - Uladzislau Rezki has contributed some vmalloc scalability improvements in his series "Mitigate a vmap lock contention".

This a step along the path to implementaton of the merging of large anonymous folios. The series is named "Enable >0 order folio memory compaction". - Christoph Hellwig has done quite a lot of cleanup work in the pagecache writeback code in his series "convert write_cache_pages() to an iterator". - Some modest hugetlb cleanups and speedups in Vishal Moola's series "Handle hugetlb faults under the VMA lock". - Zi Yan has changed the page splitting code so we can split huge pages into sizes other than order-0 to better utilize large folios.

rcu-tasks: Add data to eliminate RCU-tasks/do_exit() deadlocks

2024-02-25T22:18:24+00:00

Holding a mutex across synchronize_rcu_tasks() and acquiring that same mutex in code called from do_exit() after its call to exit_tasks_rcu_start() but before its call to exit_tasks_rcu_stop() results in deadlock. This is by design, because tasks that are far enough into do_exit() are no longer present on the tasks list, making it a bit difficult for RCU Tasks to find them, let alone wait on them to do a voluntary context switch. However, such deadlocks are becoming more frequent. In addition, lockdep currently does not detect such deadlocks and they can be difficult to reproduce. In addition, if a task voluntarily context switches during that time (for example, if it blocks acquiring a mutex), then this task is in an RCU Tasks quiescent state. And with some adjustments, RCU Tasks could just as well take advantage of that fact. This commit therefore adds the data structures that will be needed to rely on these quiescent states and to eliminate these deadlocks.

mm: document memalloc_noreclaim_save() and memalloc_pin_save()

2024-02-22T18:24:57+00:00

The memalloc_noreclaim_save() function currently has no documentation comment, so the implications of its usage are not obvious. Namely that it not only prevents entering reclaim (as the name suggests), but also allows using all memory reserves and thus should be only used in contexts that are allocating memory to free memory. This may lead to new improper usages being added. Thus add a documenting comment, based on the description of __GFP_MEMALLOC. While at it, also document memalloc_pin_save() so that all the memalloc_ scopes are documented. For those already documented, add missing Return: descriptions, and mark Context: description per kernel-docs style guide. In the comments describing the relevant PF_MEMALLOC flags, refer to their scope setting functions.

mm/mempolicy: introduce MPOL_WEIGHTED_INTERLEAVE for weighted interleaving

2024-02-22T18:24:46+00:00

When a system has multiple NUMA nodes and it becomes bandwidth hungry, using the current MPOL_INTERLEAVE could be an wise option. However, if those NUMA nodes consist of different types of memory such as socket-attached DRAM and CXL/PCIe attached DRAM, the round-robin based interleave policy does not optimally distribute data to make use of their different bandwidth characteristics. Instead, interleave is more effective when the allocation policy follows each NUMA nodes' bandwidth weight rather than a simple 1:1 distribution. This patch introduces a new memory policy, MPOL_WEIGHTED_INTERLEAVE, enabling weighted interleave between NUMA nodes. Weighted interleave allows for proportional distribution of memory across multiple numa nodes, preferably apportioned to match the bandwidth of each node. For example, if a system has 1 CPU node (0), and 2 memory nodes (0,1), with bandwidth of (100GB/s, 50GB/s) respectively, the appropriate weight distribution is (2:1). Weights for each node can be assigned via the new sysfs extension: /sys/kernel/mm/mempolicy/weighted_interleave/ For now, the default value of all nodes will be `1`, which matches the behavior of standard 1:1 round-robin interleave. An extension will be added in the future to allow default values to be registered at kernel and device bringup time. The policy allocates a number of pages equal to the set weights. For example, if the weights are (2,1), then 2 pages will be allocated on node0 for every 1 page allocated on node1. The new flag MPOL_WEIGHTED_INTERLEAVE can be used in set_mempolicy(2) and mbind(2). Some high level notes about the pieces of weighted interleave: current->il_prev: Tracks the node previously allocated from. current->il_weight: The active weight of the current node (current->il_prev) When this reaches 0, current->il_prev is set to the next node and current->il_weight is set to the next weight. weighted_interleave_nodes: Counts the number of allocations as they occur, and applies the weight for the current node. When the weight reaches 0, switch to the next node. Operates only on task->mempolicy. weighted_interleave_nid: Gets the total weight of the nodemask as well as each individual node weight, then calculates the node based on the given index. Operates on VMA policies. bulk_array_weighted_interleave: Gets the total weight of the nodemask as well as each individual node weight, then calculates the number of "interleave rounds" as well as any delta ("partial round"). Calculates the number of pages for each node and allocates them. If a node was scheduled for interleave via interleave_nodes, the current weight will be allocated first. Operates only on the task->mempolicy. One piece of complexity is the interaction between a recent refactor which split the logic to acquire the "ilx" (interleave index) of an allocation and the actually application of the interleave. If a call to alloc_pages_mpol() were made with a weighted-interleave policy and ilx set to NO_INTERLEAVE_INDEX, weighted_interleave_nodes() would operate on a VMA policy - violating the description above. An inspection of all callers of alloc_pages_mpol() shows that all external callers set ilx to `0`, an index value, or will call get_vma_policy() to acquire the ilx. For example, mm/shmem.c may call into alloc_pages_mpol. The call stacks all set (pgoff_t ilx) or end up in `get_vma_policy()`. This enforces the `weighted_interleave_nodes()` and `weighted_interleave_nid()` policy requirements (task/vma respectively).

Mark the task as having a cached timestamp when set assign it, so we can efficiently check if it needs updating post being scheduled back in. This covers both the actual schedule out case, which would've flushed the plug, and the preemption case which doesn't touch the plugged requests (for many reasons, one of them being then we'd need to have preemption disabled around plug state manipulation).
