2021-05-05x86/mm: track linear mapping split eventsSaravanan D1-0/+4
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.

2021-05-05mm: /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh stop checking monotonic numa statsHugh Dickins1-9/+0

2021-05-05mm: /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh skip checking known negative statsHugh Dickins1-0/+15
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" Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20200714173747.3315771-1-guro@fb.com/ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.LSU.2.11.2103012158540.7549@eggly.anvils Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Reported-by: Roman Gushchin <guro@fb.com> Acked-by: Roman Gushchin <guro@fb.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@kernel.org> Cc: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2021-02-26mm: vmstat: add some comments on internal storage of byte itemsJohannes Weiner1-0/+12
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.

2021-02-26mm: vmstat: fix NOHZ wakeups for node stat changesJohannes Weiner1-6/+9
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").

2021-02-26mm/page_alloc: count CMA pages per zone and print them in /proc/zoneinfoDavid Hildenbrand1-2/+4
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.

2021-02-25mm: memcg: add swapcache stat for memcg v2Shakeel Butt1-0/+3
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.

2021-02-25mm: memcontrol: convert NR_ANON_THPS account to pagesMuchun Song1-2/+9
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.

2020-12-15arm: remove CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODELMike Rapoport1-4/+0
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.

2020-08-12mm: proactive compactionNitin Gupta1-0/+18
For some applications, we need to allocate almost all memory as hugepages. However, on a running system, higher-order allocations can fail if the memory is fragmented. Linux kernel currently does on-demand compaction as we request more hugepages, but this style of compaction incurs very high latency. Experiments with one-time full memory compaction (followed by hugepage allocations) show that kernel is able to restore a highly fragmented memory state to a fairly compacted memory state within <1 sec for a 32G system. Such data suggests that a more proactive compaction can help us allocate a large fraction of memory as hugepages keeping allocation latencies low. For a more proactive compaction, the approach taken here is to define a new sysctl called 'vm.compaction_proactiveness' which dictates bounds for external fragmentation which kcompactd tries to maintain. The tunable takes a value in range [0, 100], with a default of 20. Note that a previous version of this patch [1] was found to introduce too many tunables (per-order extfrag{low, high}), but this one reduces them to just one sysctl. Also, the new tunable is an opaque value instead of asking for specific bounds of "external fragmentation", which would have been difficult to estimate. The internal interpretation of this opaque value allows for future fine-tuning. Currently, we use a simple translation from this tunable to [low, high] "fragmentation score" thresholds (low=100-proactiveness, high=low+10%). The score for a node is defined as weighted mean of per-zone external fragmentation. A zone's present_pages determines its weight. To periodically check per-node score, we reuse per-node kcompactd threads, which are woken up every 500 milliseconds to check the same. If a node's score exceeds its high threshold (as derived from user-provided proactiveness value), proactive compaction is started until its score reaches its low threshold value. By default, proactiveness is set to 20, which implies threshold values of low=80 and high=90. This patch is largely based on ideas from Michal Hocko [2]. See also the LWN article [3]. Performance data ================ System: x64_64, 1T RAM, 80 CPU threads. Kernel: 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch echo madvise | sudo tee /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled echo madvise | sudo tee /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag Before starting the driver, the system was fragmented from a userspace program that allocates all memory and then for each 2M aligned section, frees 3/4 of base pages using munmap. The workload is mainly anonymous userspace pages, which are easy to move around. I intentionally avoided unmovable pages in this test to see how much latency we incur when hugepage allocations hit direct compaction. 1. Kernel hugepage allocation latencies With the system in such a fragmented state, a kernel driver then allocates as many hugepages as possible and measures allocation latency: (all latency values are in microseconds) - With vanilla 5.6.0-rc3 percentile latency –––––––––– ––––––– 5 7894 10 9496 25 12561 30 15295 40 18244 50 21229 60 27556 75 30147 80 31047 90 32859 95 33799 Total 2M hugepages allocated = 383859 (749G worth of hugepages out of 762G total free => 98% of free memory could be allocated as hugepages) - With 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch, with proactiveness=20 sysctl -w vm.compaction_proactiveness=20 percentile latency –––––––––– ––––––– 5 2 10 2 25 3 30 3 40 3 50 4 60 4 75 4 80 4 90 5 95 429 Total 2M hugepages allocated = 384105 (750G worth of hugepages out of 762G total free => 98% of free memory could be allocated as hugepages) 2. JAVA heap allocation In this test, we first fragment memory using the same method as for (1). Then, we start a Java process with a heap size set to 700G and request the heap to be allocated with THP hugepages. We also set THP to madvise to allow hugepage backing of this heap. /usr/bin/time java -Xms700G -Xmx700G -XX:+UseTransparentHugePages -XX:+AlwaysPreTouch The above command allocates 700G of Java heap using hugepages. - With vanilla 5.6.0-rc3 17.39user 1666.48system 27:37.89elapsed - With 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch, with proactiveness=20 8.35user 194.58system 3:19.62elapsed Elapsed time remains around 3:15, as proactiveness is further increased. Note that proactive compaction happens throughout the runtime of these workloads. The situation of one-time compaction, sufficient to supply hugepages for following allocation stream, can probably happen for more extreme proactiveness values, like 80 or 90. In the above Java workload, proactiveness is set to 20. The test starts with a node's score of 80 or higher, depending on the delay between the fragmentation step and starting the benchmark, which gives more-or-less time for the initial round of compaction. As t he benchmark consumes hugepages, node's score quickly rises above the high threshold (90) and proactive compaction starts again, which brings down the score to the low threshold level (80). Repeat. bpftrace also confirms proactive compaction running 20+ times during the runtime of this Java benchmark. kcompactd threads consume 100% of one of the CPUs while it tries to bring a node's score within thresholds. Backoff behavior ================ Above workloads produce a memory state which is easy to compact. However, if memory is filled with unmovable pages, proactive compaction should essentially back off. To test this aspect: - Created a kernel driver that allocates almost all memory as hugepages followed by freeing first 3/4 of each hugepage. - Set proactiveness=40 - Note that proactive_compact_node() is deferred maximum number of times with HPAGE_FRAG_CHECK_INTERVAL_MSEC of wait between each check (=> ~30 seconds between retries).

2020-08-07mm: memcg: prepare for byte-sized vmstat itemsRoman Gushchin1-4/+26
To implement per-object slab memory accounting, we need to convert slab vmstat counters to bytes. Actually, out of 4 levels of counters: global, per-node, per-memcg and per-lruvec only two last levels will require byte-sized counters. It's because global and per-node counters will be counting the number of slab pages, and per-memcg and per-lruvec will be counting the amount of memory taken by charged slab objects. Converting all vmstat counters to bytes or even all slab counters to bytes would introduce an additional overhead. So instead let's store global and per-node counters in pages, and memcg and lruvec counters in bytes. To make the API clean all access helpers (both on the read and write sides) are dealing with bytes. To avoid back-and-forth conversions a new flavor of read-side helpers is introduced, which always returns values in pages: node_page_state_pages() and global_node_page_state_pages(). Actually new helpers are just reading raw values. Old helpers are simple wrappers, which will complain on an attempt to read byte value, because at the moment no one actually needs bytes. Thanks to Johannes Weiner for the idea of having the byte-sized API on top of the page-sized internal storage.

2020-06-02mm/writeback: discard NR_UNSTABLE_NFS, use NR_WRITEBACK insteadNeilBrown1-2/+9
After an NFS page has been written it is considered "unstable" until a COMMIT request succeeds. If the COMMIT fails, the page will be re-written. These "unstable" pages are currently accounted as "reclaimable", either in WB_RECLAIMABLE, or in NR_UNSTABLE_NFS which is included in a 'reclaimable' count. This might have made sense when sending the COMMIT required a separate action by the VFS/MM (e.g. releasepage() used to send a COMMIT). However now that all writes generated by ->writepages() will automatically be followed by a COMMIT (since commit 919e3bd9a875 ("NFS: Ensure we commit after writeback is complete")) it makes more sense to treat them as writeback pages. So this patch removes NR_UNSTABLE_NFS and accounts unstable pages in NR_WRITEBACK and WB_WRITEBACK. A particular effect of this change is that when wb_check_background_flush() calls wb_over_bg_threshold(), the latter will report 'true' a lot less often as the 'unstable' pages are no longer considered 'dirty' (as there is nothing that writeback can do about them anyway). Currently wb_check_background_flush() will trigger writeback to NFS even when there are relatively few dirty pages (if there are lots of unstable pages), this can result in small writes going to the server (10s of Kilobytes rather than a Megabyte) which hurts throughput. With this patch, there are fewer writes which are each larger on average. Where the NR_UNSTABLE_NFS count was included in statistics virtual-files, the entry is retained, but the value is hard-coded as zero. static trace points and warning printks which mentioned this counter no longer report it.

2019-12-05mm/vmstat: add helpers to get vmstat item names for each enum typeKonstantin Khlebnikov1-31/+20
Statistics in vmstat is combined from counters with different structure, but names for them are merged into one array. This patch adds trivial helpers to get name for each item: const char *zone_stat_name(enum zone_stat_item item); const char *numa_stat_name(enum numa_stat_item item); const char *node_stat_name(enum node_stat_item item); const char *writeback_stat_name(enum writeback_stat_item item); const char *vm_event_name(enum vm_event_item item); Names for enum writeback_stat_item are folded in the middle of vmstat_text so this patch moves declaration into header to calculate offset of following items. Also this patch reuses piece of node stat names for lru list names: const char *lru_list_name(enum lru_list lru); This returns common lru list names: "inactive_anon", "active_anon", "inactive_file", "active_file", "unevictable".

2019-11-06mm, vmstat: reduce zone->lock holding time by /proc/pagetypeinfoMichal Hocko1-3/+20
pagetypeinfo_showfree_print is called by zone->lock held in irq mode. This is not really nice because it blocks both any interrupts on that cpu and the page allocator. On large machines this might even trigger the hard lockup detector. Considering the pagetypeinfo is a debugging tool we do not really need exact numbers here. The primary reason to look at the outuput is to see how pageblocks are spread among different migratetypes and low number of pages is much more interesting therefore putting a bound on the number of pages on the free_list sounds like a reasonable tradeoff. The new output will simply tell [...] Node 6, zone Normal, type Movable >100000 >100000 >100000 >100000 41019 31560 23996 10054 3229 983 648 instead of Node 6, zone Normal, type Movable 399568 294127 221558 102119 41019 31560 23996 10054 3229 983 648 The limit has been chosen arbitrary and it is a subject of a future change should there be a need for that. While we are at it, also drop the zone lock after each free_list iteration which will help with the IRQ and page allocator responsiveness even further as the IRQ lock held time is always bound to those 100k pages.

2019-11-06mm, vmstat: hide /proc/pagetypeinfo from normal usersMichal Hocko1-1/+1
/proc/pagetypeinfo is a debugging tool to examine internal page allocator state wrt to fragmentation. It is not very useful for any other use so normal users really do not need to read this file. Waiman Long has noticed that reading this file can have negative side effects because zone->lock is necessary for gathering data and that a) interferes with the page allocator and its users and b) can lead to hard lockups on large machines which have very long free_list. Reduce both issues by simply not exporting the file to regular users.

Commit 58bc4c34d249 ("mm/vmstat.c: skip NR_TLB_REMOTE_FLUSH* properly") depends on skipping vmstat entries with empty name introduced in 7aaf77272358 ("mm: don't show nr_indirectly_reclaimable in /proc/vmstat") but reverted in b29940c1abd7 ("mm: rename and change semantics of nr_indirectly_reclaimable_bytes"). So skipping no longer works and /proc/vmstat has misformatted lines " 0". This patch simply shows debug counters "nr_tlb_remote_*" for UP.

2018-12-28mm: convert zone->managed_pages to atomic variableArun KS1-2/+2
totalram_pages, zone->managed_pages and totalhigh_pages updates are protected by managed_page_count_lock, but readers never care about it. Convert these variables to atomic to avoid readers potentially seeing a store tear. This patch converts zone->managed_pages. Subsequent patches will convert totalram_panges, totalhigh_pages and eventually managed_page_count_lock will be removed. Main motivation was that managed_page_count_lock handling was complicating things. It was discussed in length here, https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/995739/#1181785 So it seemes better to remove the lock and convert variables to atomic, with preventing poteintial store-to-read tearing as a bonus.

2018-11-18mm/vmstat.c: fix NUMA statistics updatesJanne Huttunen1-3/+4
Scan through the whole array to see if an update is needed. While we're at it, use sizeof() to be safe against any possible type changes in the future. The bug here is that we wouldn't sync per-cpu counters into global ones if there was an update of numa_stats for higher cpus. Highly theoretical one though because it is much more probable that zone_stats are updated so we would refresh anyway. So I wouldn't bother to mark this for stable, yet something nice to fix.

2018-10-27mm: workingset: tell cache transitions from workingset thrashingJohannes Weiner1-0/+1
Refaults happen during transitions between workingsets as well as in-place thrashing. Knowing the difference between the two has a range of applications, including measuring the impact of memory shortage on the system performance, as well as the ability to smarter balance pressure between the filesystem cache and the swap-backed workingset. During workingset transitions, inactive cache refaults and pushes out established active cache. When that active cache isn't stale, however, and also ends up refaulting, that's bonafide thrashing. Introduce a new page flag that tells on eviction whether the page has been active or not in its lifetime. This bit is then stored in the shadow entry, to classify refaults as transitioning or thrashing. How many page->flags does this leave us with on 32-bit? 20 bits are always page flags 21 if you have an MMU 23 with the zone bits for DMA, Normal, HighMem, Movable 29 with the sparsemem section bits 30 if PAE is enabled 31 with this patch. So on 32-bit PAE, that leaves 1 bit for distinguishing two NUMA nodes. If that's not enough, the system can switch to discontigmem and re-gain the 6 or 7 sparsemem section bits.
