Direct reclaim stats are useful for identifying a potential source for
application latency, as well as spotting issues with kswapd. However,
khugepaged currently distorts the picture: as a kernel thread it doesn't
impose allocation latencies on userspace, and it explicitly opts out of
kswapd reclaim. Its activity showing up in the direct reclaim stats is
misleading. Counting it as kswapd reclaim could also cause confusion when
trying to understand actual kswapd behavior.
Break out khugepaged from the direct reclaim counters into new
pgsteal_khugepaged, pgdemote_khugepaged, pgscan_khugepaged counters.
Test with a huge executable (CONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS):
pgsteal_kswapd 1342185
pgsteal_direct 0
pgsteal_khugepaged 3623
pgscan_kswapd 1345025
pgscan_direct 0
pgscan_khugepaged 3623

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- Yu Zhao's Multi-Gen LRU patches are here. They've been under test in
linux-next for a couple of months without, to my knowledge, any
negative reports (or any positive ones, come to that).
- Also the Maple Tree from Liam Howlett. An overlapping range-based
tree for vmas. It it apparently slightly more efficient in its own
right, but is mainly targeted at enabling work to reduce mmap_lock
contention.
Liam has identified a number of other tree users in the kernel which
could be beneficially onverted to mapletrees.
Yu Zhao has identified a hard-to-hit but "easy to fix" lockdep splat
at [1]. This has yet to be addressed due to Liam's unfortunately
timed vacation. He is now back and we'll get this fixed up.
- Dmitry Vyukov introduces KMSAN: the Kernel Memory Sanitizer. It uses
clang-generated instrumentation to detect used-unintialized bugs down
to the single bit level.
KMSAN keeps finding bugs. New ones, as well as the legacy ones.
- Yang Shi adds a userspace mechanism (madvise) to induce a collapse of
memory into THPs.
- Zach O'Keefe has expanded Yang Shi's madvise(MADV_COLLAPSE) to
support file/shmem-backed pages.
- userfaultfd updates from Axel Rasmussen
- zsmalloc cleanups from Alexey Romanov
- cleanups from Miaohe Lin: vmscan, hugetlb_cgroup, hugetlb and
memory-failure
- Huang Ying adds enhancements to NUMA balancing memory tiering mode's
page promotion, with a new way of detecting hot pages.

Pull preempt RT updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Introduce preempt_[dis|enable_nested() and use it to clean up various
places which have open coded PREEMPT_RT conditionals.
On PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels, spinlocks and rwlocks are neither
disabling preemption nor interrupts. Though there are a few places
which depend on the implicit preemption/interrupt disable of those
locks, e.g. seqcount write sections, per CPU statistics updates etc.
PREEMPT_RT added open coded CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT conditionals to
disable/enable preemption in the related code parts all over the
place. That's hard to read and does not really explain why this is
necessary.
Linus suggested to use helper functions (preempt_disable_nested() and
preempt_enable_nested()) and use those in the affected places. On !RT
enabled kernels these functions are NOPs, but contain a lockdep assert
to validate that preemption is actually disabled to catch call sites
which do not have preemption disabled.

queued, instead of waiting until the next vmentry. This fixed a
longstanding issue where the exceptions would incorrecly become
double-faults instead of triggering a vmexit; the common case of

This patch switch the demotion target building logic to use memory tiers
instead of NUMA distance. All N_MEMORY NUMA nodes will be placed in the
default memory tier and additional memory tiers will be added by drivers
like dax kmem.
This patch builds the demotion target for a NUMA node by looking at all
memory tiers below the tier to which the NUMA node belongs. The closest
node in the immediately following memory tier is used as a demotion
target.
Since we are now only building demotion target for N_MEMORY NUMA nodes the
CPU hotplug calls are removed in this patch.

In NUMA balancing memory tiering mode, if there are hot pages in slow
memory node and cold pages in fast memory node, we need to promote/demote
hot/cold pages between the fast and cold memory nodes.
A choice is to promote/demote as fast as possible. But the CPU cycles and
memory bandwidth consumed by the high promoting/demoting throughput will
hurt the latency of some workload because of accessing inflating and slow
memory bandwidth contention.
A way to resolve this issue is to restrict the max promoting/demoting
throughput. It will take longer to finish the promoting/demoting. But
the workload latency will be better. This is implemented in this patch as
the page promotion rate limit mechanism.
The number of the candidate pages to be promoted to the fast memory node
via NUMA balancing is counted, if the count exceeds the limit specified by
the users, the NUMA balancing promotion will be stopped until the next
second.
A new sysctl knob kernel.numa_balancing_promote_rate_limit_MBps is added
for the users to specify the limit.

We keep track of several kernel memory stats (total kernel memory, page
tables, stack, vmalloc, etc) on multiple levels (global, per-node,
per-memcg, etc). These stats give insights to users to how much memory
is used by the kernel and for what purposes.
Currently, memory used by KVM mmu is not accounted in any of those
kernel memory stats. This patch series accounts the memory pages
used by KVM for page tables in those stats in a new
NR_SECONDARY_PAGETABLE stat. This stat can be later extended to account
for other types of secondary pages tables (e.g. iommu page tables).
KVM has a decent number of large allocations that aren't for page
tables, but for most of them, the number/size of those allocations
scales linearly with either the number of vCPUs or the amount of memory
assigned to the VM. KVM's secondary page table allocations do not scale
linearly, especially when nested virtualization is in use.
From a KVM perspective, NR_SECONDARY_PAGETABLE will scale with KVM's
per-VM pages_{4k,2m,1g} stats unless the guest is doing something
bizarre (e.g. accessing only 4kb chunks of 2mb pages so that KVM is
forced to allocate a large number of page tables even though the guest
isn't accessing that much memory). However, someone would need to either
understand how KVM works to make that connection, or know (or be told) to
go look at KVM's stats if they're running VMs to better decipher the stats.
Furthermore, having NR_PAGETABLE side-by-side with NR_SECONDARY_PAGETABLE
is informative. For example, when backing a VM with THP vs. HugeTLB,
NR_SECONDARY_PAGETABLE is roughly the same, but NR_PAGETABLE is an order
of magnitude higher with THP. So having this stat will at the very least
prove to be useful for understanding tradeoffs between VM backing types,
and likely even steer folks towards potential optimizations.
The original discussion with more details about the rationale:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/87ilqoi77b.wl-maz@kernel.org
This stat will be used by subsequent patches to count KVM mmu
memory usage.

mm/vmstat.c code calls cpumask_weight() to check if any bit of a given
cpumask is set. We can do it more efficiently with cpumask_empty() because
cpumask_empty() stops traversing the cpumask as soon as it finds first set
bit, while cpumask_weight() counts all bits unconditionally.

Users may use ksm by calling madvise(, , MADV_MERGEABLE) when they want to
save memory, it's a tradeoff by suffering delay on ksm cow. Users can get
to know how much memory ksm saved by reading
/sys/kernel/mm/ksm/pages_sharing, but they don't know what's the costs of
ksm cow, and this is important of some delay sensitive tasks.
So add ksm cow events to help users evaluate whether or how to use ksm.
Also update Documentation/admin-guide/mm/ksm.rst with new added events.

CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU + CONFIG_MIGRATE, but that is not really accurate.
The only two things we need to depend on are CONFIG_NUMA + CONFIG_MIGRATE,

Abhishek reported that after patch [1], hotplug operations are taking
roughly double the expected time. [2]
The reason behind is that the CPU callbacks that
migrate_on_reclaim_init() sets always call set_migration_target_nodes()
whenever a CPU is brought up/down.
But we only care about numa nodes going from having cpus to become
cpuless, and vice versa, as that influences the demotion_target order.
We do already have two CPU callbacks (vmstat_cpu_online() and
vmstat_cpu_dead()) that check exactly that, so get rid of the CPU
callbacks in migrate_on_reclaim_init() and only call
set_migration_target_nodes() from vmstat_cpu_{dead,online}() whenever a
numa node change its N_CPU state.

When faults in from swap what used to be a KSM page and that page had been
swapped in before, system has to make a copy, and leaves remerging the
pages to a later pass of ksmd.
That is not good for performace, we'd better to reduce this kind of copy.
There are some ways to reduce it, for example lessen swappiness or
madvise(, , MADV_MERGEABLE) range. So add this event to support doing
this tuning. Just like this patch: "mm, THP, swap: add THP swapping out
fallback counting".

Patch series "NUMA balancing: optimize memory placement for memory tiering system", v13
With the advent of various new memory types, some machines will have
multiple types of memory, e.g. DRAM and PMEM (persistent memory). The
memory subsystem of these machines can be called memory tiering system,
because the performance of the different types of memory are different.
After commit c221c0b0308f ("device-dax: "Hotplug" persistent memory for
use like normal RAM"), the PMEM could be used as the cost-effective
volatile memory in separate NUMA nodes. In a typical memory tiering
system, there are CPUs, DRAM and PMEM in each physical NUMA node. The
CPUs and the DRAM will be put in one logical node, while the PMEM will
be put in another (faked) logical node.
To optimize the system overall performance, the hot pages should be
placed in DRAM node. To do that, we need to identify the hot pages in
the PMEM node and migrate them to DRAM node via NUMA migration.
In the original NUMA balancing, there are already a set of existing
mechanisms to identify the pages recently accessed by the CPUs in a node
and migrate the pages to the node. So we can reuse these mechanisms to
build the mechanisms to optimize the page placement in the memory
tiering system. This is implemented in this patchset.
At the other hand, the cold pages should be placed in PMEM node. So, we
also need to identify the cold pages in the DRAM node and migrate them
to PMEM node.
In commit 26aa2d199d6f ("mm/migrate: demote pages during reclaim"), a
mechanism to demote the cold DRAM pages to PMEM node under memory
pressure is implemented. Based on that, the cold DRAM pages can be
demoted to PMEM node proactively to free some memory space on DRAM node
to accommodate the promoted hot PMEM pages. This is implemented in this
patchset too.
We have tested the solution with the pmbench memory accessing benchmark
with the 80:20 read/write ratio and the Gauss access address
distribution on a 2 socket Intel server with Optane DC Persistent Memory
Model. The test results shows that the pmbench score can improve up to
95.9%.
This patch (of 3):
In a system with multiple memory types, e.g. DRAM and PMEM, the CPU
and DRAM in one socket will be put in one NUMA node as before, while
the PMEM will be put in another NUMA node as described in the
description of the commit c221c0b0308f ("device-dax: "Hotplug"
persistent memory for use like normal RAM"). So, the NUMA balancing
mechanism will identify all PMEM accesses as remote access and try to
promote the PMEM pages to DRAM.
To distinguish the number of the inter-type promoted pages from that of
the inter-socket migrated pages. A new vmstat count is added. The
counter is per-node (count in the target node). So this can be used to
identify promotion imbalance among the NUMA nodes.

There are interfaces to adjust max_ptes_none, max_ptes_swap,
max_ptes_shared values, see
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/.
But system administrator may not know which value is the best. So Add
those events to support adjusting max_ptes_* to suitable values.
For example, if default max_ptes_swap value causes too much failures,
and system uses zram whose IO is fast, administrator could increase
max_ptes_swap until THP_SCAN_EXCEED_SWAP_PTE not increase anymore.

Patch series "Remove dependency on congestion_wait in mm/", v5.
This series that removes all calls to congestion_wait in mm/ and deletes
wait_iff_congested. It's not a clever implementation but
congestion_wait has been broken for a long time [1].
Even if congestion throttling worked, it was never a great idea. While
excessive dirty/writeback pages at the tail of the LRU is one
possibility that reclaim may be slow, there is also the problem of too
many pages being isolated and reclaim failing for other reasons
(elevated references, too many pages isolated, excessive LRU contention
etc).
This series replaces the "congestion" throttling with 3 different types.
- If there are too many dirty/writeback pages, sleep until a timeout or
enough pages get cleaned
- If too many pages are isolated, sleep until enough isolated pages are
either reclaimed or put back on the LRU
- If no progress is being made, direct reclaim tasks sleep until
another task makes progress with acceptable efficiency.
This was initially tested with a mix of workloads that used to trigger
corner cases that no longer work. A new test case was created called
"stutterp" (pagereclaim-stutterp-noreaders in mmtests) using a freshly
created XFS filesystem. Note that it may be necessary to increase the
timeout of ssh if executing remotely as ssh itself can get throttled and
the connection may timeout.
stutterp varies the number of "worker" processes from 4 up to NR_CPUS*4
to check the impact as the number of direct reclaimers increase. It has
four types of worker.
- One "anon latency" worker creates small mappings with mmap() and
times how long it takes to fault the mapping reading it 4K at a time
- X file writers which is fio randomly writing X files where the total
size of the files add up to the allowed dirty_ratio. fio is allowed
to run for a warmup period to allow some file-backed pages to
accumulate. The duration of the warmup is based on the best-case
linear write speed of the storage.
- Y file readers which is fio randomly reading small files
- Z anon memory hogs which continually map (100-dirty_ratio)% of memory
- Total estimated WSS = (100+dirty_ration) percentage of memory
X+Y+Z+1 == NR_WORKERS varying from 4 up to NR_CPUS*4
The intent is to maximise the total WSS with a mix of file and anon
memory where some anonymous memory must be swapped and there is a high
likelihood of dirty/writeback pages reaching the end of the LRU.
The test can be configured to have no background readers to stress
dirty/writeback pages. The results below are based on having zero
readers.
The short summary of the results is that the series works and stalls
until some event occurs but the timeouts may need adjustment.
The test results are not broken down by patch as the series should be
treated as one block that replaces a broken throttling mechanism with a
working one.
Finally, three machines were tested but I'm reporting the worst set of
results. The other two machines had much better latencies for example.
First the results of the "anon latency" latency

For most thread counts, the time to mmap() is unfortunately increased.
In earlier versions of the series, this was lower but a large number of
throttling events were reaching their timeout increasing the amount of
inefficient scanning of the LRU. There is no prioritisation of reclaim
tasks making progress based on each tasks rate of page allocation versus
progress of reclaim. The variance is also impacted for high worker
counts but in all cases, the differences in latency are not
statistically significant due to very large maximum outliers. Max-90
shows that 90% of the stalls are comparable but the Max results show the
massive outliers which are increased to to stalling.
It is expected that this will be very machine dependant. Due to the
test design, reclaim is difficult so allocations stall and there are
variances depending on whether THPs can be allocated or not. The amount
of memory will affect exactly how bad the corner cases are and how often
they trigger. The warmup period calculation is not ideal as it's based
on linear writes where as fio is randomly writing multiple files from
multiple tasks so the start state of the test is variable. For example,
these are the latencies on a single-socket machine that had more memory

Kswapd scanned less pages but the detailed pattern is different. The
vanilla kernel scans slowly over time where as the patches exhibits
burst patterns of scan activity. Direct reclaim scanning is reduced by
52% due to stalling.
The pattern for stealing pages is also slightly different. Both kernels
exhibit spikes but the vanilla kernel when reclaiming shows pages being
reclaimed over a period of time where as the patches tend to reclaim in
spikes. The difference is that vanilla is not throttling and instead
scanning constantly finding some pages over time where as the patched
kernel throttles and reclaims in spikes.

The fast majority of wait_iff_congested calls do not stall at all. What
is likely happening is that cond_resched() reschedules the task for a
short period when the BDI is not registering congestion (which it never
will in this test setup).
1 writeback_congestion_wait: usec_timeout=100000 usec_delayed=120000

778 writeback_congestion_wait: usec_timeout=100000 usec_delayed=104000
congestion_wait if called always exceeds the timeout as there is no
trigger to wake it up.
Bottom line: Vanilla will throttle but it's not effective.

The majority of events did not stall or stalled for a short period.
Roughly 16% of stalls reached the timeout before expiry. For direct
reclaim, the number of times stalled for each reason were
6624 reason=VMSCAN_THROTTLE_ISOLATED
93246 reason=VMSCAN_THROTTLE_NOPROGRESS
96934 reason=VMSCAN_THROTTLE_WRITEBACK
The most common reason to stall was due to excessive pages tagged for
immediate reclaim at the tail of the LRU followed by a failure to make
forward. A relatively small number were due to too many pages isolated
from the LRU by parallel threads
For VMSCAN_THROTTLE_ISOLATED, the breakdown of delays was

Most did not stall at all. A small number reached the timeout.

The full timeout is often hit but a large number also do not stall at
all. The remainder slept a little allowing other reclaim tasks to make
progress.
While this timeout could be further increased, it could also negatively
impact worst-case behaviour when there is no prioritisation of what task
should make progress.

The majority hit the timeout in direct reclaim context although a
sizable number did not stall at all. This is very different to kswapd
where only a tiny percentage of stalls due to writeback reached the
timeout.
Bottom line, the throttling appears to work and the wakeup events may
limit worst case stalls. There might be some grounds for adjusting
timeouts but it's likely futile as the worst-case scenarios depend on
the workload, memory size and the speed of the storage. A better
approach to improve the series further would be to prioritise tasks
based on their rate of allocation with the caveat that it may be very
expensive to track.
This patch (of 5):
Page reclaim throttles on wait_iff_congested under the following
conditions:
- kswapd is encountering pages under writeback and marked for immediate
reclaim implying that pages are cycling through the LRU faster than
pages can be cleaned.
- Direct reclaim will stall if all dirty pages are backed by congested
inodes.
wait_iff_congested is almost completely broken with few exceptions.
This patch adds a new node-based workqueue and tracks the number of
throttled tasks and pages written back since throttling started. If
enough pages belonging to the node are written back then the throttled
tasks will wake early. If not, the throttled tasks sleeps until the
timeout expires.

min/low/high_wmark_pages(z) is defined as
(z->_watermark[WMARK_MIN/LOW/HIGH] + z->watermark_boost)
If kswapd is frequently woken up due to the increase of
min/low/high_wmark_pages, printing watermark_boost can quickly locate
whether watermark_boost or _watermark[WMARK_MIN/LOW/HIGH] caused
min/low/high_wmark_pages to increase.

Disable preemption on -RT for the vmstat code. On vanila the code runs in
IRQ-off regions while on -RT it may not when stats are updated under a
local_lock. "preempt_disable" ensures that the same resources is not
updated in parallel due to preemption.
This patch differs from the preempt-rt version where __count_vm_event and
__count_vm_events are also protected. The counters are explicitly
"allowed to be to be racy" so there is no need to protect them from
preemption. Only the accurate page stats that are updated by a
read-modify-write need protection. This patch also differs in that a
preempt_[en|dis]able_rt helper is not used. As vmstat is the only user of
the helper, it was suggested that it be open-coded in vmstat.c instead of
risking the helper being used in unnecessary contexts.

NUMA statistics are maintained on the zone level for hits, misses, foreign
etc but nothing relies on them being perfectly accurate for functional
correctness. The counters are used by userspace to get a general overview
of a workloads NUMA behaviour but the page allocator incurs a high cost to
maintain perfect accuracy similar to what is required for a vmstat like
NR_FREE_PAGES. There even is a sysctl vm.numa_stat to allow userspace to
turn off the collection of NUMA statistics like NUMA_HIT.
This patch converts NUMA_HIT and friends to be NUMA events with similar
accuracy to VM events. There is a possibility that slight errors will be
introduced but the overall trend as seen by userspace will be similar.
The counters are no longer updated from vmstat_refresh context as it is
unnecessary overhead for counters that may never be read by userspace.
Note that counters could be maintained at the node level to save space but
it would have a user-visible impact due to /proc/zoneinfo.

The PCP (per-cpu page allocator in page_alloc.c) shares locking
requirements with vmstat and the zone lock which is inconvenient and
causes some issues. For example, the PCP list and vmstat share the same
per-cpu space meaning that it's possible that vmstat updates dirty cache
lines holding per-cpu lists across CPUs unless padding is used. Second,
PREEMPT_RT does not want to disable IRQs for too long in the page
allocator.
This series splits the locking requirements and uses locks types more
suitable for PREEMPT_RT, reduces the time when special locking is required
for stats and reduces the time when IRQs need to be disabled on
!PREEMPT_RT kernels.
Why local_lock? PREEMPT_RT considers the following sequence to be unsafe
as documented in Documentation/locking/locktypes.rst
local_irq_disable();
spin_lock(&lock);
The pcp allocator has this sequence for rmqueue_pcplist (local_irq_save)
-> __rmqueue_pcplist -> rmqueue_bulk (spin_lock). While it's possible to
separate this out, it generally means there are points where we enable
IRQs and reenable them again immediately. To prevent a migration and the
per-cpu pointer going stale, migrate_disable is also needed. That is a
custom lock that is similar, but worse, than local_lock. Furthermore, on
PREEMPT_RT, it's undesirable to leave IRQs disabled for too long. By
converting to local_lock which disables migration on PREEMPT_RT, the
locking requirements can be separated and start moving the protections for
PCP, stats and the zone lock to PREEMPT_RT-safe equivalent locking. As a
bonus, local_lock also means that PROVE_LOCKING does something useful.
After that, it's obvious that zone_statistics incurs too much overhead and
leaves IRQs disabled for longer than necessary on !PREEMPT_RT kernels.
zone_statistics uses perfectly accurate counters requiring IRQs be
disabled for parallel RMW sequences when inaccurate ones like vm_events
would do. The series makes the NUMA statistics (NUMA_HIT and friends)
inaccurate counters that then require no special protection on
!PREEMPT_RT.
The bulk page allocator can then do stat updates in bulk with IRQs enabled
which should improve the efficiency. Technically, this could have been
done without the local_lock and vmstat conversion work and the order
simply reflects the timing of when different series were implemented.
Finally, there are places where we conflate IRQs being disabled for the
PCP with the IRQ-safe zone spinlock. The remainder of the series reduces
the scope of what is protected by disabled IRQs on !PREEMPT_RT kernels.
By the end of the series, page_alloc.c does not call local_irq_save so the
locking scope is a bit clearer. The one exception is that modifying
NR_FREE_PAGES still happens in places where it's known the IRQs are
disabled as it's harmless for PREEMPT_RT and would be expensive to split
the locking there.
No performance data is included because despite the overhead of the stats,
it's within the noise for most workloads on !PREEMPT_RT. However, Jesper
Dangaard Brouer ran a page allocation microbenchmark on a E5-1650 v4 @
3.60GHz CPU on the first version of this series. Focusing on the array
variant of the bulk page allocator reveals the following.
(CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-1650 v4 @ 3.60GHz)
ARRAY variant: time_bulk_page_alloc_free_array: step=bulk size
Baseline Patched
1 56.383 54.225 (+3.83%)

64 30.633 27.252 (+11.04%)
128 30.596 27.090 (+11.46%)
While this is a positive outcome, the series is more likely to be
interesting to the RT people in terms of getting parts of the PREEMPT_RT
tree into mainline.
This patch (of 9):
The per-cpu page allocator lists and the per-cpu vmstat deltas are stored
in the same struct per_cpu_pages even though vmstats have no direct impact
on the per-cpu page lists. This is inconsistent because the vmstats for a
node are stored on a dedicated structure. The bigger issue is that the
per_cpu_pages structure is not cache-aligned and stat updates either cache
conflict with adjacent per-cpu lists incurring a runtime cost or padding
is required incurring a memory cost.
This patch splits the per-cpu pagelists and the vmstat deltas into
separate structures. It's mostly a mechanical conversion but some
variable renaming is done to clearly distinguish the per-cpu pages
structure (pcp) from the vmstats (pzstats).
Superficially, this appears to increase the size of the per_cpu_pages
structure but the movement of expire fills a structure hole so there is no
impact overall.

To help with debugging the sluggishness caused by TLB miss/reload, we
introduce monotonic hugepage [direct mapped] split event counts since
system state: SYSTEM_RUNNING to be displayed as part of /proc/vmstat in
x86 servers
The lifetime split event information will be displayed at the bottom of
/proc/vmstat
....
swap_ra 0
swap_ra_hit 0
direct_map_level2_splits 94
direct_map_level3_splits 4
nr_unstable 0
....
One of the many lasting sources of direct hugepage splits is kernel
tracing (kprobes, tracepoints).
Note that the kernel's code segment [512 MB] points to the same physical
addresses that have been already mapped in the kernel's direct mapping
range.
Source : Documentation/x86/x86_64/mm.rst
When we enable kernel tracing, the kernel has to modify
attributes/permissions of the text segment hugepages that are direct
mapped causing them to split.
Kernel's direct mapped hugepages do not coalesce back after split and
remain in place for the remainder of the lifetime.
An instance of direct page splits when we turn on dynamic kernel tracing

All of the VM NUMA stats are event counts, incremented never
decremented: it is not very useful for vmstat_refresh() to check them
throughout their first aeon, then warn on them throughout their next.

vmstat_refresh() can occasionally catch nr_zone_write_pending and
nr_writeback when they are transiently negative. The reason is partly
that the interrupt which decrements them in test_clear_page_writeback()
can come in before __test_set_page_writeback() got to increment them;
but transient negatives are still seen even when that is prevented, and
I am not yet certain why (but see Roman's note below). Those stats are
not buggy, they have never been seen to drift away from 0 permanently:
so just avoid the annoyance of showing a warning on them.
Similarly avoid showing a warning on nr_free_cma: CMA users have seen
that one reported negative from /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh too, but it
does drift away permanently: I believe that's because its incrementation
and decrementation are decided by page migratetype, but the migratetype
of a pageblock is not guaranteed to be constant.
Roman Gushchin points out:
"For performance reasons, vmstat counters are incremented and
decremented using per-cpu batches. vmstat_refresh() flushes the
per-cpu batches on all CPUs, to get values as accurate as possible;
but this method is not atomic, so the resulting value is not always
precise.
As a consequence, for those counters whose actual value is close to 0,
a small negative value may occasionally be reported. If the value is
small and the state is transient, it is not an indication of an error"

EINVAL was good for drawing the refresher's attention to a warning in
dmesg, but became very tiresome when running test suites scripted with
"set -e": an underflow from a bug in one feature would cause unrelated
tests much later to fail, just because their /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh
touch failed with that error. Stop doing that.

In v4.7 commit 52b6f46bc163 ("mm: /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh to force

checking; then in v4.8 commit 75ef71840539 ("mm, vmstat: add

NR_VM_ZONE_STAT_ITEMS without updating vmstat_refresh(): so it has been
missing out much of the vmstat underflow checking ever since.
Reinstate it.

Byte-accounted items are used for slab object accounting at the cgroup
level, because the objects in a slab page can belong to different cgroups.
At the global level these items always change in multiples of whole slab
pages. The vmstat code exploits this and stores these items as pages
internally, which allows for more compact per-cpu data.
This optimization isn't self-evident from the asserts and the division in
the stat update functions. Provide the reader with some context.

On NOHZ, the periodic vmstat flushers on each CPU can go to sleep and
won't wake up until stat changes are detected in the per-cpu deltas of the
zone vmstat counters.
In commit 75ef71840539 ("mm, vmstat: add infrastructure for per-node
vmstats") per-node counters were introduced, and subsequently most stats
were moved from the zone to the node level. However, the node counters
weren't added to the NOHZ wakeup detection.
In theory this can cause per-cpu errors to remain in the user-reported
stats indefinitely. In practice this only affects a handful of sub
counters (file_mapped, dirty and writeback e.g.) because other page state
changes at the node level likely involve a change at the zone level as
well (alloc and free, lru ops). Also, nobody has complained.
Fix it up for completeness: wake up vmstat refreshing on node changes.
Also remove the BUILD_BUG_ONs that assert counter size; we haven't relied
on it since we added sizeof() to the range calculation in commit
13c9aaf7fa01 ("mm/vmstat.c: fix NUMA statistics updates").

Let's count the number of CMA pages per zone and print them in
/proc/zoneinfo.
Having access to the total number of CMA pages per zone is helpful for
debugging purposes to know where exactly the CMA pages ended up, and to
figure out how many pages of a zone might behave differently, even after
some of these pages might already have been allocated.
As one example, CMA pages part of a kernel zone cannot be used for
ordinary kernel allocations but instead behave more like ZONE_MOVABLE.
For now, we are only able to get the global nr+free cma pages from
/proc/meminfo and the free cma pages per zone from /proc/zoneinfo.
Example after this patch when booting a 6 GiB QEMU VM with
"hugetlb_cma=2G":
# cat /proc/zoneinfo | grep cma
cma 0
nr_free_cma 0
cma 0
nr_free_cma 0
cma 524288
nr_free_cma 493016
cma 0
cma 0
# cat /proc/meminfo | grep Cma
CmaTotal: 2097152 kB
CmaFree: 1972064 kB
Note: We print even without CONFIG_CMA, just like "nr_free_cma"; this way,
one can be sure when spotting "cma 0", that there are definetly no
CMA pages located in a zone.

This patch adds swapcache stat for the cgroup v2. The swapcache
represents the memory that is accounted against both the memory and the
swap limit of the cgroup. The main motivation behind exposing the
swapcache stat is for enabling users to gracefully migrate from cgroup
v1's memsw counter to cgroup v2's memory and swap counters.
Cgroup v1's memsw limit allows users to limit the memory+swap usage of a
workload but without control on the exact proportion of memory and swap.
Cgroup v2 provides separate limits for memory and swap which enables more
control on the exact usage of memory and swap individually for the
workload.
With some little subtleties, the v1's memsw limit can be switched with the
sum of the v2's memory and swap limits. However the alternative for memsw
usage is not yet available in cgroup v2. Exposing per-cgroup swapcache
stat enables that alternative. Adding the memory usage and swap usage and
subtracting the swapcache will approximate the memsw usage. This will
help in the transparent migration of the workloads depending on memsw
usage and limit to v2' memory and swap counters.
The reasons these applications are still interested in this approximate
memsw usage are: (1) these applications are not really interested in two
separate memory and swap usage metrics. A single usage metric is more
simple to use and reason about for them.
(2) The memsw usage metric hides the underlying system's swap setup from
the applications. Applications with multiple instances running in a
datacenter with heterogeneous systems (some have swap and some don't) will
keep seeing a consistent view of their usage.

Currently we use struct per_cpu_nodestat to cache the vmstat counters,
which leads to inaccurate statistics especially THP vmstat counters. In
the systems with hundreds of processors it can be GBs of memory. For
example, for a 96 CPUs system, the threshold is the maximum number of 125.
And the per cpu counters can cache 23.4375 GB in total.
The THP page is already a form of batched addition (it will add 512 worth
of memory in one go) so skipping the batching seems like sensible.
Although every THP stats update overflows the per-cpu counter, resorting
to atomic global updates. But it can make the statistics more accuracy
for the THP vmstat counters.
So we convert the NR_ANON_THPS account to pages. This patch is consistent
with 8f182270dfec ("mm/swap.c: flush lru pvecs on compound page arrival").
Doing this also can make the unit of vmstat counters more unified.
Finally, the unit of the vmstat counters are pages, kB and bytes. The
B/KB suffix can tell us that the unit is bytes or kB. The rest which is
without suffix are pages.

ARM is the only architecture that defines CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL
which in turn enables memmap_valid_within() function that is intended to
verify existence of struct page associated with a pfn when there are holes
in the memory map.
However, the ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL also enables HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID
and arch-specific pfn_valid() implementation that also deals with the holes
in the memory map.
The only two users of memmap_valid_within() call this function after
a call to pfn_valid() so the memmap_valid_within() check becomes redundant.
Remove CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL and memmap_valid_within() and rely
entirely on ARM's implementation of pfn_valid() that is now enabled
unconditionally.

For many workloads, pagetable consumption is significant and it makes
sense to expose it in the memory.stat for the memory cgroups. However at
the moment, the pagetables are accounted per-zone. Converting them to
per-node and using the right interface will correctly account for the
memory cgroups as well.
