4741526b83 mm, page_alloc: restore the original nodemask if the fast path allocation failed
The page allocator fast path uses either the requested nodemask or
cpuset_current_mems_allowed if cpusets are enabled.  If the allocation
context allows watermarks to be ignored then it can also ignore memory
policies.  However, on entering the allocator slowpath the nodemask may
still be cpuset_current_mems_allowed and the policies are enforced.
This patch resets the nodemask appropriately before entering the
slowpath.

4e6118016e mm, page_alloc: uninline the bad page part of check_new_page()
Bad pages should be rare so the code handling them doesn't need to be
inline for performance reasons.  Put it to separate function which
returns void.  This also assumes that the initial page_expected_state()
result will match the result of the thorough check, i.e.  the page
doesn't become "good" in the meanwhile.  This matches the same
expectations already in place in free_pages_check().

e2769dbdc5 mm, page_alloc: don't duplicate code in free_pcp_prepare
The new free_pcp_prepare() function shares a lot of code with
free_pages_prepare(), which makes this a maintenance risk when some
future patch modifies only one of them.  We should be able to achieve
the same effect (skipping free_pages_check() from !DEBUG_VM configs) by
adding a parameter to free_pages_prepare() and making it inline, so the
checks (and the order != 0 parts) are eliminated from the call from
free_pcp_prepare().

!DEBUG_VM: bloat-o-meter reports no difference, as my gcc was already
inlining free_pages_prepare() and the elimination seems to work as
expected

DEBUG_VM bloat-o-meter:

  add/remove: 0/1 grow/shrink: 2/0 up/down: 1035/-778 (257)
  function                                     old     new   delta

Here inlining didn't occur before, and added some code, but it's ok for
a debug option.

479f854a20 mm, page_alloc: defer debugging checks of pages allocated from the PCP
Every page allocated checks a number of page fields for validity.  This
catches corruption bugs of pages that are already freed but it is
expensive.  This patch weakens the debugging check by checking PCP pages
only when the PCP lists are being refilled.  All compound pages are
checked.  This potentially avoids debugging checks entirely if the PCP
lists are never emptied and refilled so some corruption issues may be
missed.  Full checking requires DEBUG_VM.

With the two deferred debugging patches applied, the impact to a page
allocator microbenchmark is

Note that the free paths for large numbers of pages is impacted as the
debugging cost gets shifted into that path when the page data is no
longer necessarily cache-hot.

4db7548ccb mm, page_alloc: defer debugging checks of freed pages until a PCP drain
Every page free checks a number of page fields for validity.  This
catches premature frees and corruptions but it is also expensive.  This
patch weakens the debugging check by checking PCP pages at the time they
are drained from the PCP list.  This will trigger the bug but the site
that freed the corrupt page will be lost.  To get the full context, a
kernel rebuild with DEBUG_VM is necessary.

002f290627 cpuset: use static key better and convert to new API
An important function for cpusets is cpuset_node_allowed(), which
optimizes on the fact if there's a single root CPU set, it must be
trivially allowed.  But the check "nr_cpusets() <= 1" doesn't use the
cpusets_enabled_key static key the right way where static keys eliminate
branching overhead with jump labels.

This patch converts it so that static key is used properly.  It's also
switched to the new static key API and the checking functions are
converted to return bool instead of int.  We also provide a new variant
__cpuset_zone_allowed() which expects that the static key check was
already done and they key was enabled.  This is needed for
get_page_from_freelist() where we want to also avoid the relatively
slower check when ALLOC_CPUSET is not set in alloc_flags.

The impact on the page allocator microbenchmark is less than expected
but the cleanup in itself is worthwhile.

da838d4fcb mm, page_alloc: pull out side effects from free_pages_check
Check without side-effects should be easier to maintain.  It also
removes the duplicated cpupid and flags reset done in !DEBUG_VM variant
of both free_pcp_prepare() and then bulkfree_pcp_prepare().  Finally, it
enables the next patch.

It shouldn't result in new branches, thanks to inlining of the check.

This is also slightly faster because cpupid information is not set on
tail pages so we can avoid resets there.

7bfec6f47b mm, page_alloc: check multiple page fields with a single branch
Every page allocated or freed is checked for sanity to avoid corruptions
that are difficult to detect later.  A bad page could be due to a number
of fields.  Instead of using multiple branches, this patch combines
multiple fields into a single branch.  A detailed check is only
necessary if that check fails.

Again, the benefit is marginal but avoiding excessive branches is
important.  Ideally the paths would not have to check these conditions
at all but regrettably abandoning the tests would make use-after-free
bugs much harder to detect.

48ee5f3696 mm, page_alloc: shortcut watermark checks for order-0 pages
Watermarks have to be checked on every allocation including the number
of pages being allocated and whether reserves can be accessed.  The
reserves only matter if memory is limited and the free_pages adjustment
only applies to high-order pages.  This patch adds a shortcut for
order-0 pages that avoids numerous calculations if there is plenty of
free memory yielding the following performance difference in a page
allocator microbenchmark;

The fair zone allocation policy is not without cost but it can be
reduced slightly.  This patch removes an unnecessary local variable,
checks the likely conditions of the fair zone policy first, uses a bool
instead of a flags check and falls through when a remote node is
encountered instead of doing a full restart.  The benefit is marginal

The benefit is marginal at best but one of the most important benefits,
avoiding a second search when falling back to another node is not
triggered by this particular test so the benefit for some corner cases
is understated.

alloc_flags is a bitmask of flags but it is signed which does not
necessarily generate the best code depending on the compiler.  Even
without an impact, it makes more sense that this be unsigned.

f75fb889d1 mm, page_alloc: avoid unnecessary zone lookups during pageblock operations
Pageblocks have an associated bitmap to store migrate types and whether
the pageblock should be skipped during compaction.  The bitmap may be
associated with a memory section or a zone but the zone is looked up
unconditionally.  The compiler should optimise this away automatically
so this is a cosmetic patch only in many cases.

682a3385e7 mm, page_alloc: inline the fast path of the zonelist iterator
The page allocator iterates through a zonelist for zones that match the
addressing limitations and nodemask of the caller but many allocations
will not be restricted.  Despite this, there is always functional call
overhead which builds up.

This patch inlines the optimistic basic case and only calls the iterator
function for the complex case.  A hindrance was the fact that
cpuset_current_mems_allowed is used in the fastpath as the allowed
nodemask even though all nodes are allowed on most systems.  The patch
handles this by only considering cpuset_current_mems_allowed if a cpuset
exists.  As well as being faster in the fast-path, this removes some
junk in the slowpath.

The performance difference on a page allocator microbenchmark is;

perf indicated that next_zones_zonelist disappeared in the profile and
__next_zones_zonelist did not appear.  This is expected as the
micro-benchmark would hit the inlined fast-path every time.

There is a sizable boost to the free allocator performance.  While there
is an apparent boost on the allocation side, it's likely a co-incidence
or due to the patches slightly reducing cache footprint.

d61f859039 mm, page_alloc: only check PageCompound for high-order pages
Another year, another round of page allocator optimisations focusing
this time on the alloc and free fast paths.  This should be of help to
workloads that are allocator-intensive from kernel space where the cost
of zeroing is not nceessraily incurred.

The series is motivated by the observation that page alloc
microbenchmarks on multiple machines regressed between 3.12.44 and 4.4.
Second, there is discussions before LSF/MM considering the possibility
of adding another page allocator which is potentially hazardous but a
patch series improving performance is better than whining.

After the series is applied, there are still hazards.  In the free
paths, the debugging checking and page zone/pageblock lookups dominate
but there was not an obvious solution to that.  In the alloc path, the
major contributers are dealing with zonelists, new page preperation, the
fair zone allocation and numerous statistic updates.  The fair zone
allocator is removed by the per-node LRU series if that gets merged so
it's nor a major concern at the moment.

On normal userspace benchmarks, there is little impact as the zeroing
cost is significant but it's visible

449d777d7a mm, oom_reaper: clear TIF_MEMDIE for all tasks queued for oom_reaper
Right now the oom reaper will clear TIF_MEMDIE only for tasks which were
successfully reaped.  This is the safest option because we know that
such an oom victim would only block forward progress of the oom killer
without a good reason because it is highly unlikely it would release
much more memory.  Basically most of its memory has been already torn
down.

We can relax this assumption to catch more corner cases though.

The first obvious one is when the oom victim clears its mm and gets
stuck later on.  oom_reaper would back of on find_lock_task_mm returning
NULL.  We can safely try to clear TIF_MEMDIE in this case because such a
task would be ignored by the oom killer anyway.  The flag would be
cleared by that time already most of the time anyway.

The less obvious one is when the oom reaper fails due to mmap_sem
contention.  Even if we clear TIF_MEMDIE for this task then it is not
very likely that we would select another task too easily because we
haven't reaped the last victim and so it would be still the #1
candidate.  There is a rare race condition possible when the current
victim terminates before the next select_bad_process but considering
that oom_reap_task had retried several times before giving up then this
sounds like a borderline thing.

After this patch we should have a guarantee that the OOM killer will not
be block for unbounded amount of time for most cases.

task is PF_EXITING then the oom killer is suppressed and so is the oom
reaper.  This patch adds try_oom_reaper which checks the given task and
queues it for the oom reaper if that is safe to be done meaning that the
task doesn't share the mm with an alive process.

This might help to release the memory pressure while the task tries to
exit.

3da88fb3ba mm, oom: move GFP_NOFS check to out_of_memory
__alloc_pages_may_oom is the central place to decide when the
out_of_memory should be invoked.  This is a good approach for most
checks there because they are page allocator specific and the allocation
fails right after for all of them.

The notable exception is GFP_NOFS context which is faking
did_some_progress and keep the page allocator looping even though there
couldn't have been any progress from the OOM killer.  This patch doesn't
change this behavior because we are not ready to allow those allocation
requests to fail yet (and maybe we will face the reality that we will
never manage to safely fail these request).  Instead __GFP_FS check is
moved down to out_of_memory and prevent from OOM victim selection there.
There are two reasons for that

	- OOM notifiers might release some memory even from this context
	  as none of the registered notifier seems to be FS related
	- this might help a dying thread to get an access to memory
          reserves and move on which will make the behavior more
          consistent with the case when the task gets killed from a
          different context.

Keep a comment in __alloc_pages_may_oom to make sure we do not forget
how GFP_NOFS is special and that we really want to do something about
it.

Note to the current oom_notifier users:

The observable difference for you is that oom notifiers cannot depend on
any fs locks because we could deadlock.  Not that this would be allowed
today because that would just lockup machine in most of the cases and
ruling out the OOM killer along the way.  Another difference is that
callbacks might be invoked sooner now because GFP_NOFS is a weaker
reclaim context and so there could be reclaimable memory which is just
not reachable now.  That would require GFP_NOFS only loads which are
really rare and more importantly the observable result would be dropping
of reconstructible object and potential performance drop which is not
such a big deal when we are struggling to fulfill other important
allocation requests.

8604d9e534 memory_hotplug: introduce CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE
This patchset continues the work I started with commit 31bc3858ea
("memory-hotplug: add automatic onlining policy for the newly added
memory").

Initially I was going to stop there and bring the policy setting logic
to userspace.  I met two issues on this way:

 1) It is possible to have memory hotplugged at boot (e.g.  with QEMU).
    These blocks stay offlined if we turn the onlining policy on by
    userspace.

 2) My attempt to bring this policy setting to systemd failed, systemd
    maintainers suggest to change the default in kernel or ...  to use
    tmpfiles.d to alter the policy (which looks like a hack to me):
        https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/2938

Here I suggest to add a config option to set the default value for the
policy and a kernel command line parameter to make the override.

This patch (of 2):

Introduce config option to set the default value for memory hotplug
onlining policy (/sys/devices/system/memory/auto_online_blocks).  The
reason one would want to turn this option on are to have early onlining
for hotpluggable memory available at boot and to not require any
userspace actions to make memory hotplug work.

Whatever huge pagecache implementation we go with, file rmap locking

Factor out take_rmap_locks() and drop_rmap_locks() to handle the locking
for make move_ptes() and move_page_tables(), and delete the
VM_BUG_ON_VMA which rejected vm_file and required anon_vma.

52b6f46bc1 mm: /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh to force vmstat update
Provide /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh to force an immediate update of
per-cpu into global vmstats: useful to avoid a sleep(2) or whatever
before checking counts when testing.  Originally added to work around a
bug which left counts stranded indefinitely on a cpu going idle (an
inaccuracy magnified when small below-batch numbers represent "huge"
amounts of memory), but I believe that bug is now fixed: nonetheless,
this is still a useful knob.

Its schedule_on_each_cpu() is probably too expensive just to fold into
reading /proc/meminfo itself: give this mode 0600 to prevent abuse.
Allow a write or a read to do the same: nothing to read, but "grep -h
Shmem /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh /proc/meminfo" is convenient.  Oh, and
since global_page_state() itself is careful to disguise any underflow as
0, hack in an "Invalid argument" and pr_warn() if a counter is negative
after the refresh - this helped to fix a misaccounting of
NR_ISOLATED_FILE in my migration code.

But on recent kernels, I find that NR_ALLOC_BATCH and NR_PAGES_SCANNED
often go negative some of the time.  I have not yet worked out why, but
have no evidence that it's actually harmful.  Punt for the moment by
just ignoring the anomaly on those.

9e18eb2935 tmpfs: mem_cgroup charge fault to vm_mm not current mm
Although shmem_fault() has been careful to count a major fault to vm_mm,
shmem_getpage_gfp() has been careless in charging a remote access fault
to current->mm owner's memcg instead of to vma->vm_mm owner's memcg:
that is inconsistent with all the mem_cgroup charging on remote access
faults in mm/memory.c.

Fix it by passing fault_mm along with fault_type to
shmem_get_page_gfp(); but in that case, now knowing the right mm, it's
better for it to handle the PGMAJFAULT updates itself.

And let's keep this clutter out of most callers' way: change the common
shmem_getpage() wrapper to hide fault_mm and fault_type as well as gfp.

75edd345e8 tmpfs: preliminary minor tidyups
Make a few cleanups in mm/shmem.c, before going on to complicate it.

shmem_alloc_page() will become more complicated: we can't afford to to
have that complication duplicated between a CONFIG_NUMA version and a
!CONFIG_NUMA version, so rearrange the #ifdef'ery there to yield a
single shmem_swapin() and a single shmem_alloc_page().

Yes, it's a shame to inflict the horrid pseudo-vma on non-NUMA
configurations, but eliminating it is a larger cleanup: I have an
alloc_pages_mpol() patchset not yet ready - mpol handling is subtle and
bug-prone, and changed yet again since my last version.

Move __SetPageLocked, __SetPageSwapBacked from shmem_getpage_gfp() to
shmem_alloc_page(): that SwapBacked flag will be useful in future, to
help to distinguish different cases appropriately.

And the SGP_DIRTY variant of SGP_CACHE is hard to understand and of
little use (IIRC it dates back to when shmem_getpage() returned the page
unlocked): kill it and do the necessary in shmem_file_read_iter().

But an arm64 build then complained that info may be uninitialized (where
shmem_getpage_gfp() deletes a freshly alloced page beyond eof), and
advancing to an "sgp <= SGP_CACHE" test jogged it back to reality.

fa9949da59 mm: use __SetPageSwapBacked and dont ClearPageSwapBacked
v3.16 commit 07a4278843 ("mm: shmem: avoid atomic operation during
shmem_getpage_gfp") rightly replaced one instance of SetPageSwapBacked
by __SetPageSwapBacked, pointing out that the newly allocated page is
not yet visible to other users (except speculative get_page_unless_zero-
ers, who may not update page flags before their further checks).

That was part of a series in which Mel was focused on tmpfs profiles:
but almost all SetPageSwapBacked uses can be so optimized, with the same
justification.

Remove ClearPageSwapBacked from __read_swap_cache_async() error path:
it's not an error to free a page with PG_swapbacked set.

Follow a convention of __SetPageLocked, __SetPageSwapBacked instead of
doing it differently in different places; but that's for tidiness - if
the ordering actually mattered, we should not be using the __variants.

There's probably scope for further __SetPageFlags in other places, but
SwapBacked is the one I'm interested in at the moment.

9d5e6a9f22 mm: update_lru_size do the __mod_zone_page_state
Konstantin Khlebnikov pointed out (nearly four years ago, when lumpy
reclaim was removed) that lru_size can be updated by -nr_taken once per
call to isolate_lru_pages(), instead of page by page.

Update it inside isolate_lru_pages(), or at its two callsites? I chose
to update it at the callsites, rearranging and grouping the updates by
nr_taken and nr_scanned together in both.

With one exception, mem_cgroup_update_lru_size(,lru,) is then used where
__mod_zone_page_state(,NR_LRU_BASE+lru,) is used; and we shall be adding
some more calls in a future commit.  Make the code a little smaller and
simpler by incorporating stat update in lru_size update.

The exception was move_active_pages_to_lru(), which aggregated the
pgmoved stat update separately from the individual lru_size updates; but
I still think this a simplification worth making.

However, the __mod_zone_page_state is not peculiar to mem_cgroups: so
better use the name update_lru_size, calls mem_cgroup_update_lru_size
when CONFIG_MEMCG.

ca707239e8 mm: update_lru_size warn and reset bad lru_size
Though debug kernels have a VM_BUG_ON to help protect from misaccounting
lru_size, non-debug kernels are liable to wrap it around: and then the
vast unsigned long size draws page reclaim into a loop of repeatedly
doing nothing on an empty list, without even a cond_resched().

That soft lockup looks confusingly like an over-busy reclaim scenario,
with lots of contention on the lru_lock in shrink_inactive_list(): yet
has a totally different origin.

Help differentiate with a custom warning in
mem_cgroup_update_lru_size(), even in non-debug kernels; and reset the
size to avoid the lockup.  But the particular bug which suggested this
change was mine alone, and since fixed.

Make it a WARN_ONCE: the first occurrence is the most informative, a
flurry may follow, yet even when rate-limited little more is learnt.

ba6b0979e3 power: add zone range overlapping check
There is a system thats node's pfns are overlapped as follows:

  -----pfn-------->
  N0 N1 N2 N0 N1 N2

Therefore, we need to care this overlapping when iterating pfn range.

mark_free_pages() iterates requested zone's pfn range and unset all
range's bitmap first.  And then it marks freepages in a zone to the
bitmap.  If there is an overlapping zone, above unset could clear
previous marked bit and reference to this bitmap in the future will
cause the problem.  To prevent it, this patch adds a zone check in
mark_free_pages().

9d43f5aec9 mm/page_owner: add zone range overlapping check
There is a system thats node's pfns are overlapped as follows:

  -----pfn-------->
  N0 N1 N2 N0 N1 N2

Therefore, we need to care this overlapping when iterating pfn range.

There are one place in page_owner.c that iterates pfn range and it
doesn't consider this overlapping.  Add it.

Without this patch, above system could over count early allocated page
number before page_owner is activated.
