Considering the use cases where the swap device supports discard:
a) and can do it quickly;
b) but it's slow to do in small granularities (or concurrent with other
I/O);
c) but the implementation is so horrendous that you don't even want to
send one down;
And assuming that the sysadmin considers it useful to send the discards down
at all, we would (probably) want the following solutions:
i. do the fine-grained discards for freed swap pages, if device is
capable of doing so optimally;
ii. do single-time (batched) swap area discards, either at swapon
or via something like fstrim (not implemented yet);
iii. allow doing both single-time and fine-grained discards; or
iv. turn it off completely (default behavior)
As implemented today, one can only enable/disable discards for swap, but
one cannot select, for instance, solution (ii) on a swap device like (b)
even though the single-time discard is regarded to be interesting, or
necessary to the workload because it would imply (1), and the device is
not capable of performing it optimally.
This patch addresses the scenario depicted above by introducing a way to
ensure the (probably) wanted solutions (i, ii, iii and iv) can be flexibly
flagged through swapon(8) to allow a sysadmin to select the best suitable
swap discard policy accordingly to system constraints.
This patch introduces SWAP_FLAG_DISCARD_PAGES and SWAP_FLAG_DISCARD_ONCE
new flags to allow more flexibe swap discard policies being flagged
through swapon(8). The default behavior is to keep both single-time, or
batched, area discards (SWAP_FLAG_DISCARD_ONCE) and fine-grained discards
for page-clusters (SWAP_FLAG_DISCARD_PAGES) enabled, in order to keep
consistentcy with older kernel behavior, as well as maintain compatibility
with older swapon(8). However, through the new introduced flags the best
suitable discard policy can be selected accordingly to any given swap
device constraint.

Currently the per cpu counter's batch size for memory accounting is
configured as twice the number of cpus in the system. However, for
system with very large memory, it is more appropriate to make it
proportional to the memory size per cpu in the system.
For example, for a x86_64 system with 64 cpus and 128 GB of memory, the
batch size is only 2*64 pages (0.5 MB). So any memory accounting
changes of more than 0.5MB will overflow the per cpu counter into the
global counter. Instead, for the new scheme, the batch size is
configured to be 0.4% of the memory/cpu = 8MB (128 GB/64 /256), which is
more inline with the memory size.
I've done a repeated brk test of 800KB (from will-it-scale test suite)
with 80 concurrent processes on a 4 socket Westmere machine with a total
of 40 cores. Without the patch, about 80% of cpu is spent on spin-lock
contention within the vm_committed_as counter. With the patch, there's
a 73x speedup on the benchmark and the lock contention drops off almost
entirely.

During early boot-up, iomem_resource is set up from the boot descriptor
table, such as EFI Memory Table and e820. Later,
acpi_memory_device_add() calls add_memory() for each ACPI memory device
object as it enumerates ACPI namespace. This add_memory() call is
expected to fail in register_memory_resource() at boot since
iomem_resource has been set up from EFI/e820. As a result, add_memory()
returns -EEXIST, which acpi_memory_device_add() handles as the normal
case.
This scheme works fine, but the following error message is logged for
every ACPI memory device object during boot-up.
"System RAM resource %pR cannot be added\n"
This patch changes register_memory_resource() to use pr_debug() for the
message as it shows up under the normal case.

After a successful page migration by soft offlining, the source page is
not properly freed and it's never reusable even if we unpoison it
afterward.
This is caused by the race between freeing page and setting PG_hwpoison.
In successful soft offlining, the source page is put (and the refcount
becomes 0) by putback_lru_page() in unmap_and_move(), where it's linked
to pagevec and actual freeing back to buddy is delayed. So if
PG_hwpoison is set for the page before freeing, the freeing does not
functions as expected (in such case freeing aborts in
free_pages_prepare() check.)
This patch tries to make sure to free the source page before setting
PG_hwpoison on it. To avoid reallocating, the page keeps
MIGRATE_ISOLATE until after setting PG_hwpoison.
This patch also removes obsolete comments about "keeping elevated
refcount" because what they say is not true. Unlike memory_failure(),
soft_offline_page() uses no special page isolation code, and the
soft-offlined pages have no elevated.

Similar to __pagevec_lru_add, this patch removes the LRU parameter from
__lru_cache_add and lru_cache_add_lru as the caller does not control the
exact LRU the page gets added to. lru_cache_add_lru gets renamed to
lru_cache_add the name is silly without the lru parameter. With the
parameter removed, it is required that the caller indicate if they want
the page added to the active or inactive list by setting or clearing
PageActive respectively.

Now that the LRU to add a page to is decided at LRU-add time, remove the
misleading lru parameter from __pagevec_lru_add. A consequence of this
is that the pagevec_lru_add_file, pagevec_lru_add_anon and similar
helpers are misleading as the caller no longer has direct control over
what LRU the page is added to. Unused helpers are removed by this patch
and existing users of pagevec_lru_add_file() are converted to use
lru_cache_add_file() directly and use the per-cpu pagevecs instead of
creating their own pagevec.

If a page is on a pagevec then it is !PageLRU and mark_page_accessed()
may fail to move a page to the active list as expected. Now that the
LRU is selected at LRU drain time, mark pages PageActive if they are on
the local pagevec so it gets moved to the correct list at LRU drain
time. Using a debugging patch it was found that for a simple git
checkout based workload that pages were never added to the active file
list in practice but with this patch applied they are.
before after
LRU Add Active File 0 750583
LRU Add Active Anon 2640587 2702818
LRU Add Inactive File 8833662 8068353
LRU Add Inactive Anon 207 200
Note that only pages on the local pagevec are considered on purpose. A
!PageLRU page could be in the process of being released, reclaimed,
migrated or on a remote pagevec that is currently being drained.
Marking it PageActive is vunerable to races where PageLRU and Active
bits are checked at the wrong time. Page reclaim will trigger
VM_BUG_ONs but depending on when the race hits, it could also free a
PageActive page to the page allocator and trigger a bad_page warning.
Similarly a potential race exists between a per-cpu drain on a pagevec
list and an activation on a remote CPU.
lru_add_drain_cpu
__pagevec_lru_add
lru = page_lru(page);
mark_page_accessed
if (PageLRU(page))
activate_page
else
SetPageActive
SetPageLRU(page);
add_page_to_lru_list(page, lruvec, lru);
In this case a PageActive page is added to the inactivate list and later
the inactive/active stats will get skewed. While the PageActive checks
in vmscan could be removed and potentially dealt with, a skew in the
statistics would be very difficult to detect. Hence this patch deals
just with the common case where a page being marked accessed has just
been added to the local pagevec.

mark_page_accessed() cannot activate an inactive page that is located on
an inactive LRU pagevec. Hints from filesystems may be ignored as a
result. In preparation for fixing that problem, this patch removes the
per-LRU pagevecs and leaves just one pagevec. The final LRU the page is
added to is deferred until the pagevec is drained.
This means that fewer pagevecs are available and potentially there is
greater contention on the LRU lock. However, this only applies in the
case where there is an almost perfect mix of file, anon, active and
inactive pages being added to the LRU. In practice I expect that we are
adding stream of pages of a particular time and that the changes in
contention will barely be measurable.

Andrew Perepechko reported a problem whereby pages are being prematurely
evicted as the mark_page_accessed() hint is ignored for pages that are
currently on a pagevec --
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-ext4/msg37340.html .
Alexey Lyahkov and Robin Dong have also reported problems recently that
could be due to hot pages reaching the end of the inactive list too
quickly and be reclaimed.
Rather than addressing this on a per-filesystem basis, this series aims
to fix the mark_page_accessed() interface by deferring what LRU a page
is added to pagevec drain time and allowing mark_page_accessed() to call
SetPageActive on a pagevec page.
Patch 1 adds two tracepoints for LRU page activation and insertion. Using
these processes it's possible to build a model of pages in the
LRU that can be processed offline.
Patch 2 defers making the decision on what LRU to add a page to until when
the pagevec is drained.
Patch 3 searches the local pagevec for pages to mark PageActive on
mark_page_accessed. The changelog explains why only the local
pagevec is examined.
Patches 4 and 5 tidy up the API.
postmark, a dd-based test and fs-mark both single and threaded mode were
run but none of them showed any performance degradation or gain as a
result of the patch.
Using patch 1, I built a *very* basic model of the LRU to examine
offline what the average age of different page types on the LRU were in
milliseconds. Of course, capturing the trace distorts the test as it's
written to local disk but it does not matter for the purposes of this
test. The average age of pages in milliseconds were
vanilla deferdrain
Average age mapped anon: 1454 1250
Average age mapped file: 127841 155552
Average age unmapped anon: 85 235
Average age unmapped file: 73633 38884
Average age unmapped buffers: 74054 116155
The LRU activity was mostly files which you'd expect for a dd-based
workload. Note that the average age of buffer pages is increased by the
series and it is expected this is due to the fact that the buffer pages
are now getting added to the active list when drained from the pagevecs.
Note that the average age of the unmapped file data is decreased as they
are still added to the inactive list and are reclaimed before the
buffers.
There is no guarantee this is a universal win for all workloads and it
would be nice if the filesystem people gave some thought as to whether
this decision is generally a win or a loss.
This patch:
Using these tracepoints it is possible to model LRU activity and the
average residency of pages of different types. This can be used to
debug problems related to premature reclaim of pages of particular
types.

This patch introduces mmap_vmcore().
Don't permit writable nor executable mapping even with mprotect()
because this mmap() is aimed at reading crash dump memory. Non-writable
mapping is also requirement of remap_pfn_range() when mapping linear
pages on non-consecutive physical pages; see is_cow_mapping().
Set VM_MIXEDMAP flag to remap memory by remap_pfn_range and by
remap_vmalloc_range_pertial at the same time for a single vma.
do_munmap() can correctly clean partially remapped vma with two
functions in abnormal case. See zap_pte_range(), vm_normal_page() and
their comments for details.
On x86-32 PAE kernels, mmap() supports at most 16TB memory only. This
limitation comes from the fact that the third argument of
remap_pfn_range(), pfn, is of 32-bit length on x86-32: unsigned long.

objects
The previous patches newly added holes before each chunk of memory and
the holes need to be count in vmcore file size. There are two ways to
count file size in such a way:
1) suppose m is a poitner to the last vmcore object in vmcore_list.
Then file size is (m->offset + m->size), or
2) calculate sum of size of buffers for ELF header, program headers,
ELF note segments and objects in vmcore_list.
Although 1) is more direct and simpler than 2), 2) seems better in that
it reflects internal object structure of /proc/vmcore. Thus, this patch
changes get_vmcore_size_elf{64, 32} so that it calculates size in the
way of 2).
As a result, both get_vmcore_size_elf{64, 32} have the same definition.
Merge them as get_vmcore_size.

Now ELF note segment has been copied in the buffer on vmalloc memory.
To allow user process to remap the ELF note segment buffer with
remap_vmalloc_page, the corresponding VM area object has to have
VM_USERMAP flag set.

The reasons why we don't allocate ELF note segment in the 1st kernel
(old memory) on page boundary is to keep backward compatibility for old
kernels, and that if doing so, we waste not a little memory due to
round-up operation to fit the memory to page boundary since most of the
buffers are in per-cpu area.
ELF notes are per-cpu, so total size of ELF note segments depends on
number of CPUs. The current maximum number of CPUs on x86_64 is 5192,
and there's already system with 4192 CPUs in SGI, where total size
amounts to 1MB. This can be larger in the near future or possibly even
now on another architecture that has larger size of note per a single
cpu. Thus, to avoid the case where memory allocation for large block
fails, we allocate vmcore objects on vmalloc memory.
This patch adds elfnotes_buf and elfnotes_sz variables to keep pointer
to the ELF note segment buffer and its size. There's no longer the
vmcore object that corresponds to the ELF note segment in vmcore_list.
Accordingly, read_vmcore() has new case for ELF note segment and
set_vmcore_list_offsets_elf{64,32}() and other helper functions starts
calculating offset from sum of size of ELF headers and size of ELF note
segment.

We want to allocate ELF note segment buffer on the 2nd kernel in vmalloc
space and remap it to user-space in order to reduce the risk that memory
allocation fails on system with huge number of CPUs and so with huge ELF
note segment that exceeds 11-order block size.
Although there's already remap_vmalloc_range for the purpose of
remapping vmalloc memory to user-space, we need to specify user-space
range via vma.
Mmap on /proc/vmcore needs to remap range across multiple objects, so
the interface that requires vma to cover full range is problematic.
This patch introduces remap_vmalloc_range_partial that receives user-space
range as a pair of base address and size and can be used for mmap on
/proc/vmcore case.
remap_vmalloc_range is rewritten using remap_vmalloc_range_partial.

Currently, __find_vmap_area searches for the kernel VM area starting at
a given address. This patch changes this behavior so that it searches
for the kernel VM area to which the address belongs. This change is
needed by remap_vmalloc_range_partial to be introduced in later patch
that receives any position of kernel VM area as target address.
This patch changes the condition (addr > va->va_start) to the equivalent
(addr >= va->va_end) by taking advantage of the fact that each kernel VM
area is non-overlapping.

page-size boundary in vmcore_list
Treat memory chunks referenced by PT_LOAD program header entries in
page-size boundary in vmcore_list. Formally, for each range [start,
end], we set up the corresponding vmcore object in vmcore_list to
[rounddown(start, PAGE_SIZE), roundup(end, PAGE_SIZE)].
This change affects layout of /proc/vmcore. The gaps generated by the
rearrangement are newly made visible to applications as holes.
Concretely, they are two ranges [rounddown(start, PAGE_SIZE), start] and
[end, roundup(end, PAGE_SIZE)].
Suppose variable m points at a vmcore object in vmcore_list, and
variable phdr points at the program header of PT_LOAD type the variable
m corresponds to. Then, pictorially:
m->offset +---------------+
| hole |
phdr->p_offset = +---------------+
m->offset + (paddr - start) | |\
| kernel memory | phdr->p_memsz
| |/
+---------------+
| hole |
m->offset + m->size +---------------+
where m->offset and m->offset + m->size are always page-size aligned.

Allocate ELF headers on page-size boundary using __get_free_pages()
instead of kmalloc().
Later patch will merge PT_NOTE entries into a single unique one and
decrease the buffer size actually used. Keep original buffer size in
variable elfcorebuf_sz_orig to kfree the buffer later and actually used
buffer size with rounded up to page-size boundary in variable
elfcorebuf_sz separately.
The size of part of the ELF buffer exported from /proc/vmcore is
elfcorebuf_sz.
The merged, removed PT_NOTE entries, i.e. the range [elfcorebuf_sz,
elfcorebuf_sz_orig], is filled with 0.
Use size of the ELF headers as an initial offset value in
set_vmcore_list_offsets_elf{64,32} and
process_ptload_program_headers_elf{64,32} in order to indicate that the
offset includes the holes towards the page boundary.
As a result, both set_vmcore_list_offsets_elf{64,32} have the same
definition. Merge them as set_vmcore_list_offsets.

VM page reclaim uses dirty and writeback page states to determine if
flushers are cleaning pages too slowly and that page reclaim should
stall waiting on flushers to catch up. Page state in NFS is a bit more
complex and a clean page can be unreclaimable due to being unstable
which is effectively "dirty" from the perspective of the VM from reclaim
context. Similarly, if the inode is currently being committed then it's
similar to being under writeback.
This patch adds a is_dirty_writeback() handled for NFS that checks if a
pages backing inode is being committed and should be accounted as
writeback and if a page has private state indicating that it is
effectively dirty.

Page reclaim keeps track of dirty and under writeback pages and uses it
to determine if wait_iff_congested() should stall or if kswapd should
begin writing back pages. This fails to account for buffer pages that
can be under writeback but not PageWriteback which is the case for
filesystems like ext3 ordered mode. Furthermore, PageDirty buffer pages
can have all the buffers clean and writepage does no IO so it should not
be accounted as congested.
This patch adds an address_space operation that filesystems may
optionally use to check if a page is really dirty or really under
writeback. An implementation is provided for for buffer_heads is added
and used for block operations and ext3 in ordered mode. By default the
page flags are obeyed.
Credit goes to Jan Kara for identifying that the page flags alone are
not sufficient for ext3 and sanity checking a number of ideas on how the
problem could be addressed.

Currently a zone will only be marked congested if the underlying BDI is
congested but if dirty pages are spread across zones it is possible that
an individual zone is full of dirty pages without being congested. The
impact is that zone gets scanned very quickly potentially reclaiming
really clean pages. This patch treats pages marked for immediate
reclaim as congested for the purposes of marking a zone ZONE_CONGESTED
and stalling in wait_iff_congested.

Commit "mm: vmscan: Block kswapd if it is encountering pages under

marked for immediate reclaim. It blocks while pages are still isolated
from the LRU which is unnecessary. This patch defers the blocking until
after the isolated pages have been processed and tidies up some of the
comments.

pages encountered
Further testing of the "Reduce system disruption due to kswapd"
discovered a few problems. First and foremost, it's possible for pages
under writeback to be freed which will lead to badness. Second, as
pages were not being swapped the file LRU was being scanned faster and
clean file pages were being reclaimed. In some cases this results in
increased read IO to re-read data from disk. Third, more pages were
being written from kswapd context which can adversly affect IO
performance. Lastly, it was observed that PageDirty pages are not
necessarily dirty on all filesystems (buffers can be clean while
PageDirty is set and ->writepage generates no IO) and not all
filesystems set PageWriteback when the page is being written (e.g.
ext3). This disconnect confuses the reclaim stalling logic. This
follow-up series is aimed at these problems.
The tests were based on three kernels
vanilla: kernel 3.9 as that is what the current mmotm uses as a baseline
mmotm-20130522 is mmotm as of 22nd May with "Reduce system disruption due to
kswapd" applied on top as per what should be in Andrew's tree
right now
lessdisrupt-v7r10 is this follow-up series on top of the mmotm kernel
The first test used memcached+memcachetest while some background IO was
in progress as implemented by the parallel IO tests implement in MM
Tests. memcachetest benchmarks how many operations/second memcached can
service. It starts with no background IO on a freshly created ext4
filesystem and then re-runs the test with larger amounts of IO in the
background to roughly simulate a large copy in progress. The
expectation is that the IO should have little or no impact on
memcachetest which is running entirely in memory.
