* The Slab Allocator: An Object-Caching Kernel Memory Allocator
* Jeff Bonwick (Sun Microsystems).
* Presented at: USENIX Summer 1994 Technical Conference
*
* The memory is organized in caches, one cache for each object type.
* (e.g. inode_cache, dentry_cache, buffer_head, vm_area_struct)
* Each cache consists out of many slabs (they are small (usually one
* page long) and always contiguous), and each slab contains multiple
* initialized objects.
*
* This means, that your constructor is used only for newly allocated
* slabs and you must pass objects with the same initializations to
* kmem_cache_free.
*
* Each cache can only support one memory type (GFP_DMA, GFP_HIGHMEM,
* normal). If you need a special memory type, then must create a new
* cache for that memory type.
*
* In order to reduce fragmentation, the slabs are sorted in 3 groups:
* full slabs with 0 free objects
* partial slabs
* empty slabs with no allocated objects
*
* If partial slabs exist, then new allocations come from these slabs,
* otherwise from empty slabs or new slabs are allocated.
*
* kmem_cache_destroy() CAN CRASH if you try to allocate from the cache
* during kmem_cache_destroy(). The caller must prevent concurrent allocs.
*
* Each cache has a short per-cpu head array, most allocs
* and frees go into that array, and if that array overflows, then 1/2
* of the entries in the array are given back into the global cache.
* The head array is strictly LIFO and should improve the cache hit rates.
* On SMP, it additionally reduces the spinlock operations.
*
* The c_cpuarray may not be read with enabled local interrupts -
* it's changed with a smp_call_function().
*
* SMP synchronization:
* constructors and destructors are called without any locking.
* Several members in struct kmem_cache and struct slab never change, they
* are accessed without any locking.
* The per-cpu arrays are never accessed from the wrong cpu, no locking,
* and local interrupts are disabled so slab code is preempt-safe.
* The non-constant members are protected with a per-cache irq spinlock.
*
* Many thanks to Mark Hemment, who wrote another per-cpu slab patch
* in 2000 - many ideas in the current implementation are derived from
* his patch.
*
* Further notes from the original documentation:
*
* 11 April '97. Started multi-threading - markhe
* The global cache-chain is protected by the mutex 'cache_chain_mutex'.
* The sem is only needed when accessing/extending the cache-chain, which
* can never happen inside an interrupt (kmem_cache_create(),
* kmem_cache_shrink() and kmem_cache_reap()).
*
* At present, each engine can be growing a cache. This should be blocked.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

[PATCH] cpuset memory spread slab cache implementation Provide the slab cache infrastructure to support cpuset memory spreading. See the previous patches, cpuset_mem_spread, for an explanation of cpuset memory spreading. This patch provides a slab cache SLAB_MEM_SPREAD flag. If set in the kmem_cache_create() call defining a slab cache, then any task marked with the process state flag PF_MEMSPREAD will spread memory page allocations for that cache over all the allowed nodes, instead of preferring the local (faulting) node. On systems not configured with CONFIG_NUMA, this results in no change to the page allocation code path for slab caches. On systems with cpusets configured in the kernel, but the "memory_spread" cpuset option not enabled for the current tasks cpuset, this adds a call to a cpuset routine and failed bit test of the processor state flag PF_SPREAD_SLAB. For tasks so marked, a second inline test is done for the slab cache flag SLAB_MEM_SPREAD, and if that is set and if the allocation is not in_interrupt(), this adds a call to to a cpuset routine that computes which of the tasks mems_allowed nodes should be preferred for this allocation. ==> This patch adds another hook into the performance critical code path to allocating objects from the slab cache, in the ____cache_alloc() chunk, below. The next patch optimizes this hook, reducing the impact of the combined mempolicy plus memory spreading hooks on this critical code path to a single check against the tasks task_struct flags word. This patch provides the generic slab flags and logic needed to apply memory spreading to a particular slab. A subsequent patch will mark a few specific slab caches for this placement policy.

[PATCH] NUMA policies in the slab allocator V2 This patch fixes a regression in 2.6.14 against 2.6.13 that causes an imbalance in memory allocation during bootup. The slab allocator in 2.6.13 is not numa aware and simply calls alloc_pages(). This means that memory policies may control the behavior of alloc_pages(). During bootup the memory policy is set to MPOL_INTERLEAVE resulting in the spreading out of allocations during bootup over all available nodes. The slab allocator in 2.6.13 has only a single list of slab pages. As a result the per cpu slab cache and the spinlock controlled page lists may contain slab entries from off node memory. The slab allocator in 2.6.13 makes no effort to discern the locality of an entry on its lists. The NUMA aware slab allocator in 2.6.14 controls locality of the slab pages explicitly by calling alloc_pages_node(). The NUMA slab allocator manages slab entries by having lists of available slab pages for each node. The per cpu slab cache can only contain slab entries associated with the node local to the processor. This guarantees that the default allocation mode of the slab allocator always assigns local memory if available. Setting MPOL_INTERLEAVE as a default policy during bootup has no effect anymore. In 2.6.14 all node unspecific slab allocations are performed on the boot processor. This means that most of key data structures are allocated on one node. Most processors will have to refer to these structures making the boot node a potential bottleneck. This may reduce performance and cause unnecessary memory pressure on the boot node. This patch implements NUMA policies in the slab layer. There is the need of explicit application of NUMA memory policies by the slab allcator itself since the NUMA slab allocator does no longer let the page_allocator control locality. The check for policies is made directly at the beginning of __cache_alloc using current->mempolicy. The memory policy is already frequently checked by the page allocator (alloc_page_vma() and alloc_page_current()). So it is highly likely that the cacheline is present. For MPOL_INTERLEAVE kmalloc() will spread out each request to one node after another so that an equal distribution of allocations can be obtained during bootup. It is not possible to push the policy check to lower layers of the NUMA slab allocator since the per cpu caches are now only containing slab entries from the current node. If the policy says that the local node is not to be preferred or forbidden then there is no point in checking the slab cache or local list of slab pages. The allocation better be directed immediately to the lists containing slab entries for the allowed set of nodes. This way of applying policy also fixes another strange behavior in 2.6.13. alloc_pages() is controlled by the memory allocation policy of the current process. It could therefore be that one process is running with MPOL_INTERLEAVE and would f.e. obtain a new page following that policy since no slab entries are in the lists anymore. A page can typically be used for multiple slab entries but lets say that the current process is only using one. The other entries are then added to the slab lists. These are now non local entries in the slab lists despite of the possible availability of local pages that would provide faster access and increase the performance of the application. Another process without MPOL_INTERLEAVE may now run and expect a local slab entry from kmalloc(). However, there are still these free slab entries from the off node page obtained from the other process via MPOL_INTERLEAVE in the cache. The process will then get an off node slab entry although other slab entries may be available that are local to that process. This means that the policy if one process may contaminate the locality of the slab caches for other processes. This patch in effect insures that a per process policy is followed for the allocation of slab entries and that there cannot be a memory policy influence from one process to another. A process with default policy will always get a local slab entry if one is available. And the process using memory policies will get its memory arranged as requested. Off-node slab allocation will require the use of spinlocks and will make the use of per cpu caches not possible. A process using memory policies to redirect allocations offnode will have to cope with additional lock overhead in addition to the latency added by the need to access a remote slab entry. Changes V1->V2 - Remove #ifdef CONFIG_NUMA by moving forward declaration into prior #ifdef CONFIG_NUMA section. - Give the function determining the node number to use a saner name.

infrastructure to debug (dynamic) objects We can see an ever repeating problem pattern with objects of any kind in the kernel: 1) freeing of active objects 2) reinitialization of active objects Both problems can be hard to debug because the crash happens at a point where we have no chance to decode the root cause anymore. One problem spot are kernel timers, where the detection of the problem often happens in interrupt context and usually causes the machine to panic. While working on a timer related bug report I had to hack specialized code into the timer subsystem to get a reasonable hint for the root cause. This debug hack was fine for temporary use, but far from a mergeable solution due to the intrusiveness into the timer code. The code further lacked the ability to detect and report the root cause instantly and keep the system operational. Keeping the system operational is important to get hold of the debug information without special debugging aids like serial consoles and special knowledge of the bug reporter. The problems described above are not restricted to timers, but timers tend to expose it usually in a full system crash. Other objects are less explosive, but the symptoms caused by such mistakes can be even harder to debug. Instead of creating specialized debugging code for the timer subsystem a generic infrastructure is created which allows developers to verify their code and provides an easy to enable debug facility for users in case of trouble. The debugobjects core code keeps track of operations on static and dynamic objects by inserting them into a hashed list and sanity checking them on object operations and provides additional checks whenever kernel memory is freed. The tracked object operations are: - initializing an object - adding an object to a subsystem list - deleting an object from a subsystem list Each operation is sanity checked before the operation is executed and the subsystem specific code can provide a fixup function which allows to prevent the damage of the operation. When the sanity check triggers a warning message and a stack trace is printed. The list of operations can be extended if the need arises. For now it's limited to the requirements of the first user (timers). The core code enqueues the objects into hash buckets. The hash index is generated from the address of the object to simplify the lookup for the check on kfree/vfree. Each bucket has it's own spinlock to avoid contention on a global lock. The debug code can be compiled in without being active. The runtime overhead is minimal and could be optimized by asm alternatives. A kernel command line option enables the debugging code.

infrastructure to debug (dynamic) objects We can see an ever repeating problem pattern with objects of any kind in the kernel: 1) freeing of active objects 2) reinitialization of active objects Both problems can be hard to debug because the crash happens at a point where we have no chance to decode the root cause anymore. One problem spot are kernel timers, where the detection of the problem often happens in interrupt context and usually causes the machine to panic. While working on a timer related bug report I had to hack specialized code into the timer subsystem to get a reasonable hint for the root cause. This debug hack was fine for temporary use, but far from a mergeable solution due to the intrusiveness into the timer code. The code further lacked the ability to detect and report the root cause instantly and keep the system operational. Keeping the system operational is important to get hold of the debug information without special debugging aids like serial consoles and special knowledge of the bug reporter. The problems described above are not restricted to timers, but timers tend to expose it usually in a full system crash. Other objects are less explosive, but the symptoms caused by such mistakes can be even harder to debug. Instead of creating specialized debugging code for the timer subsystem a generic infrastructure is created which allows developers to verify their code and provides an easy to enable debug facility for users in case of trouble. The debugobjects core code keeps track of operations on static and dynamic objects by inserting them into a hashed list and sanity checking them on object operations and provides additional checks whenever kernel memory is freed. The tracked object operations are: - initializing an object - adding an object to a subsystem list - deleting an object from a subsystem list Each operation is sanity checked before the operation is executed and the subsystem specific code can provide a fixup function which allows to prevent the damage of the operation. When the sanity check triggers a warning message and a stack trace is printed. The list of operations can be extended if the need arises. For now it's limited to the requirements of the first user (timers). The core code enqueues the objects into hash buckets. The hash index is generated from the address of the object to simplify the lookup for the check on kfree/vfree. Each bucket has it's own spinlock to avoid contention on a global lock. The debug code can be compiled in without being active. The runtime overhead is minimal and could be optimized by asm alternatives. A kernel command line option enables the debugging code.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

slab: setup allocators earlier in the boot sequence This patch makes kmalloc() available earlier in the boot sequence so we can get rid of some bootmem allocations. The bulk of the changes are due to kmem_cache_init() being called with interrupts disabled which requires some changes to allocator boostrap code. Note: 32-bit x86 does WP protect test in mem_init() so we must setup traps before we call mem_init() during boot as reported by Ingo Molnar: We have a hard crash in the WP-protect code: [ 0.000000] Checking if this processor honours the WP bit even in supervisor mode...BUG: Int 14: CR2 ffcff000 [ 0.000000] EDI 00000188 ESI 00000ac7 EBP c17eaf9c ESP c17eaf8c [ 0.000000] EBX 000014e0 EDX 0000000e ECX 01856067 EAX 00000001 [ 0.000000] err 00000003 EIP c10135b1 CS 00000060 flg 00010002 [ 0.000000] Stack: c17eafa8 c17fd410 c16747bc c17eafc4 c17fd7e5 000011fd f8616000 c18237cc [ 0.000000] 00099800 c17bb000 c17eafec c17f1668 000001c5 c17f1322 c166e039 c1822bf0 [ 0.000000] c166e033 c153a014 c18237cc 00020800 c17eaff8 c17f106a 00020800 01ba5003 [ 0.000000] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.30-tip-02161-g7a74539-dirty #52203 [ 0.000000] Call Trace: [ 0.000000] [<c15357c2>] ? printk+0x14/0x16 [ 0.000000] [<c10135b1>] ? do_test_wp_bit+0x19/0x23 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd410>] ? test_wp_bit+0x26/0x64 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd7e5>] ? mem_init+0x1ba/0x1d8 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1668>] ? start_kernel+0x164/0x2f7 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1322>] ? unknown_bootoption+0x0/0x19c [ 0.000000] [<c17f106a>] ? __init_begin+0x6a/0x6f Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm.

The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

Increase slab redzone to 64bits There are two problems with the existing redzone implementation. Firstly, it's causing misalignment of structures which contain a 64-bit integer, such as netfilter's 'struct ipt_entry' -- causing netfilter modules to fail to load because of the misalignment. (In particular, the first check in net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c::check_entry_size_and_hooks()) On ppc32 and sparc32, amongst others, __alignof__(uint64_t) == 8. With slab debugging, we use 32-bit redzones. And allocated slab objects aren't sufficiently aligned to hold a structure containing a uint64_t. By _just_ setting ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to __alignof__(u64) we'd disable redzone checks on those architectures. By using 64-bit redzones we avoid that loss of debugging, and also fix the other problem while we're at it. When investigating this, I noticed that on 64-bit platforms we're using a 32-bit value of RED_ACTIVE/RED_INACTIVE in the 64-bit memory location set aside for the redzone. Which means that the four bytes immediately before or after the allocated object at 0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00 for LE and BE machines, respectively. Which is probably not the most useful choice of poison value. One way to fix both of those at once is just to switch to 64-bit redzones in all cases.

Increase slab redzone to 64bits There are two problems with the existing redzone implementation. Firstly, it's causing misalignment of structures which contain a 64-bit integer, such as netfilter's 'struct ipt_entry' -- causing netfilter modules to fail to load because of the misalignment. (In particular, the first check in net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c::check_entry_size_and_hooks()) On ppc32 and sparc32, amongst others, __alignof__(uint64_t) == 8. With slab debugging, we use 32-bit redzones. And allocated slab objects aren't sufficiently aligned to hold a structure containing a uint64_t. By _just_ setting ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to __alignof__(u64) we'd disable redzone checks on those architectures. By using 64-bit redzones we avoid that loss of debugging, and also fix the other problem while we're at it. When investigating this, I noticed that on 64-bit platforms we're using a 32-bit value of RED_ACTIVE/RED_INACTIVE in the 64-bit memory location set aside for the redzone. Which means that the four bytes immediately before or after the allocated object at 0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00 for LE and BE machines, respectively. Which is probably not the most useful choice of poison value. One way to fix both of those at once is just to switch to 64-bit redzones in all cases.

My first thought was to send a patch that gave each array_cache structure's ->lock field its own struct lock_class_key, but you already have a init_lock_keys() that seems to be intended to deal with this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ============================================= [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ] 2.6.32-rc4-autokern1 #1 --------------------------------------------- syslogd/2908 is trying to acquire lock: (&nc->lock){..-...}, at: [<c0000000001407f4>] .kmem_cache_free+0x118/0x2d4 but task is already holding lock: (&nc->lock){..-...}, at: [<c0000000001411bc>] .kfree+0x1f0/0x324 other info that might help us debug this: 3 locks held by syslogd/2908: #0: (&u->readlock){+.+.+.}, at: [<c0000000004556f8>] .unix_dgram_recvmsg+0x70/0x338 #1: (&nc->lock){..-...}, at: [<c0000000001411bc>] .kfree+0x1f0/0x324 #2: (&parent->list_lock){-.-...}, at: [<c000000000140f64>] .__drain_alien_cache+0x50/0xb8 stack backtrace: Call Trace: [c0000000e8ccafc0] [c0000000000101e4] .show_stack+0x70/0x184 (unreliable) [c0000000e8ccb070] [c0000000000afebc] .validate_chain+0x6ec/0xf58 [c0000000e8ccb180] [c0000000000b0ff0] .__lock_acquire+0x8c8/0x974 [c0000000e8ccb280] [c0000000000b2290] .lock_acquire+0x140/0x18c [c0000000e8ccb350] [c000000000468df0] ._spin_lock+0x48/0x70 [c0000000e8ccb3e0] [c0000000001407f4] .kmem_cache_free+0x118/0x2d4 [c0000000e8ccb4a0] [c000000000140b90] .free_block+0x130/0x1a8 [c0000000e8ccb540] [c000000000140f94] .__drain_alien_cache+0x80/0xb8 [c0000000e8ccb5e0] [c0000000001411e0] .kfree+0x214/0x324 [c0000000e8ccb6a0] [c0000000003ca860] .skb_release_data+0xe8/0x104 [c0000000e8ccb730] [c0000000003ca2ec] .__kfree_skb+0x20/0xd4 [c0000000e8ccb7b0] [c0000000003cf2c8] .skb_free_datagram+0x1c/0x5c [c0000000e8ccb830] [c00000000045597c] .unix_dgram_recvmsg+0x2f4/0x338 [c0000000e8ccb920] [c0000000003c0f14] .sock_recvmsg+0xf4/0x13c [c0000000e8ccbb30] [c0000000003c28ec] .SyS_recvfrom+0xb4/0x130 [c0000000e8ccbcb0] [c0000000003bfb78] .sys_recv+0x18/0x2c [c0000000e8ccbd20] [c0000000003ed388] .compat_sys_recv+0x14/0x28 [c0000000e8ccbd90] [c0000000003ee1bc] .compat_sys_socketcall+0x178/0x220 [c0000000e8ccbe30] [c0000000000085d4] syscall_exit+0x0/0x40 This patch fixes the issue by setting up lockdep annotations during CPU hotplug.

[PATCH] mm: slab: eliminate lock_cpu_hotplug from slab Here's an attempt towards doing away with lock_cpu_hotplug in the slab subsystem. This approach also fixes a bug which shows up when cpus are being offlined/onlined and slab caches are being tuned simultaneously. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=116098888100481&w=2 The patch has been stress tested overnight on a 2 socket 4 core AMD box with repeated cpu online and offline, while dbench and kernbench process are running, and slab caches being tuned at the same time. There were no lockdep warnings either. (This test on 2,6.18 as 2.6.19-rc crashes at __drain_pages http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=116172164217678&w=2 ) The approach here is to hold cache_chain_mutex from CPU_UP_PREPARE until CPU_ONLINE (similar in approach as worqueue_mutex) . Slab code sensitive to cpu_online_map (kmem_cache_create, kmem_cache_destroy, slabinfo_write, __cache_shrink) is already serialized with cache_chain_mutex. (This patch lengthens cache_chain_mutex hold time at kmem_cache_destroy to cover this). This patch also takes the cache_chain_sem at kmem_cache_shrink to protect sanity of cpu_online_map at __cache_shrink, as viewed by slab. (kmem_cache_shrink->__cache_shrink->drain_cpu_caches). But, really, kmem_cache_shrink is used at just one place in the acpi subsystem! Do we really need to keep kmem_cache_shrink at all? Another note. Looks like a cpu hotplug event can send CPU_UP_CANCELED to a registered subsystem even if the subsystem did not receive CPU_UP_PREPARE. This could be due to a subsystem registered for notification earlier than the current subsystem crapping out with NOTIFY_BAD. Badness can occur with in the CPU_UP_CANCELED code path at slab if this happens (The same would apply for workqueue.c as well). To overcome this, we might have to use either a) a per subsystem flag and avoid handling of CPU_UP_CANCELED, or b) Use a special notifier events like LOCK_ACQUIRE/RELEASE as Gautham was using in his experiments, or c) Do not send CPU_UP_CANCELED to a subsystem which did not receive CPU_UP_PREPARE. I would prefer c).

[PATCH] add kmalloc_node, inline cleanup The patch makes the following function calls available to allocate memory on a specific node without changing the basic operation of the slab allocator: kmem_cache_alloc_node(kmem_cache_t *cachep, unsigned int flags, int node); kmalloc_node(size_t size, unsigned int flags, int node); in a similar way to the existing node-blind functions: kmem_cache_alloc(kmem_cache_t *cachep, unsigned int flags); kmalloc(size, flags); kmem_cache_alloc_node was changed to pass flags and the node information through the existing layers of the slab allocator (which lead to some minor rearrangements). The functions at the lowest layer (kmem_getpages, cache_grow) are already node aware. Also __alloc_percpu can call kmalloc_node now.

[PATCH] slab: Node rotor for freeing alien caches and remote per cpu pages. The cache reaper currently tries to free all alien caches and all remote per cpu pages in each pass of cache_reap. For a machines with large number of nodes (such as Altix) this may lead to sporadic delays of around ~10ms. Interrupts are disabled while reclaiming creating unacceptable delays. This patch changes that behavior by adding a per cpu reap_node variable. Instead of attempting to free all caches, we free only one alien cache and the per cpu pages from one remote node. That reduces the time spend in cache_reap. However, doing so will lengthen the time it takes to completely drain all remote per cpu pagesets and all alien caches. The time needed will grow with the number of nodes in the system. All caches are drained when they overflow their respective capacity. So the drawback here is only that a bit of memory may be wasted for awhile longer. Details: 1. Rename drain_remote_pages to drain_node_pages to allow the specification of the node to drain of pcp pages. 2. Add additional functions init_reap_node, next_reap_node for NUMA that manage a per cpu reap_node counter. 3. Add a reap_alien function that reaps only from the current reap_node. For us this seems to be a critical issue. Holdoffs of an average of ~7ms cause some HPC benchmarks to slow down significantly. F.e. NAS parallel slows down dramatically. NAS parallel has a 12-16 seconds runtime w/o rotor compared to 5.8 secs with the rotor patches. It gets down to 5.05 secs with the additional interrupt holdoff reductions.

numa: slab: use numa_mem_id() for slab local memory node Example usage of generic "numa_mem_id()": The mainline slab code, since ~ 2.6.19, does not handle memoryless nodes well. Specifically, the "fast path"--____cache_alloc()--will never succeed as slab doesn't cache offnode object on the per cpu queues, and for memoryless nodes, all memory will be "off node" relative to numa_node_id(). This adds significant overhead to all kmem cache allocations, incurring a significant regression relative to earlier kernels [from before slab.c was reorganized]. This patch uses the generic topology function "numa_mem_id()" to return the "effective local memory node" for the calling context. This is the first node in the local node's generic fallback zonelist-- the same node that "local" mempolicy-based allocations would use. This lets slab cache these "local" allocations and avoid fallback/refill on every allocation. N.B.: Slab will need to handle node and memory hotplug events that could change the value returned by numa_mem_id() for any given node if recent changes to address memory hotplug don't already address this. E.g., flush all per cpu slab queues before rebuilding the zonelists while the "machine" is held in the stopped state.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

[PATCH] GFP_THISNODE for the slab allocator This patch insures that the slab node lists in the NUMA case only contain slabs that belong to that specific node. All slab allocations use GFP_THISNODE when calling into the page allocator. If an allocation fails then we fall back in the slab allocator according to the zonelists appropriate for a certain context. This allows a replication of the behavior of alloc_pages and alloc_pages node in the slab layer. Currently allocations requested from the page allocator may be redirected via cpusets to other nodes. This results in remote pages on nodelists and that in turn results in interrupt latency issues during cache draining. Plus the slab is handing out memory as local when it is really remote. Fallback for slab memory allocations will occur within the slab allocator and not in the page allocator. This is necessary in order to be able to use the existing pools of objects on the nodes that we fall back to before adding more pages to a slab. The fallback function insures that the nodes we fall back to obey cpuset restrictions of the current context. We do not allocate objects from outside of the current cpuset context like before. Note that the implementation of locality constraints within the slab allocator requires importing logic from the page allocator. This is a mischmash that is not that great. Other allocators (uncached allocator, vmalloc, huge pages) face similar problems and have similar minimal reimplementations of the basic fallback logic of the page allocator. There is another way of implementing a slab by avoiding per node lists (see modular slab) but this wont work within the existing slab.

Fallback for slab memory allocations will occur within the slab allocator and not in the page allocator. This is necessary in order to be able to use the existing pools of objects on the nodes that we fall back to before adding more pages to a slab. The fallback function insures that the nodes we fall back to obey cpuset restrictions of the current context. We do not allocate objects from outside of the current cpuset context like before. Note that the implementation of locality constraints within the slab allocator requires importing logic from the page allocator. This is a mischmash that is not that great. Other allocators (uncached allocator, vmalloc, huge pages) face similar problems and have similar minimal reimplementations of the basic fallback logic of the page allocator. There is another way of implementing a slab by avoiding per node lists (see modular slab) but this wont work within the existing slab.

[PATCH] GFP_THISNODE for the slab allocator This patch insures that the slab node lists in the NUMA case only contain slabs that belong to that specific node. All slab allocations use GFP_THISNODE when calling into the page allocator. If an allocation fails then we fall back in the slab allocator according to the zonelists appropriate for a certain context. This allows a replication of the behavior of alloc_pages and alloc_pages node in the slab layer. Currently allocations requested from the page allocator may be redirected via cpusets to other nodes. This results in remote pages on nodelists and that in turn results in interrupt latency issues during cache draining. Plus the slab is handing out memory as local when it is really remote.

[PATCH] NUMA policies in the slab allocator V2 This patch fixes a regression in 2.6.14 against 2.6.13 that causes an imbalance in memory allocation during bootup. The slab allocator in 2.6.13 is not numa aware and simply calls alloc_pages(). This means that memory policies may control the behavior of alloc_pages(). During bootup the memory policy is set to MPOL_INTERLEAVE resulting in the spreading out of allocations during bootup over all available nodes. The slab allocator in 2.6.13 has only a single list of slab pages. As a result the per cpu slab cache and the spinlock controlled page lists may contain slab entries from off node memory. The slab allocator in 2.6.13 makes no effort to discern the locality of an entry on its lists. The NUMA aware slab allocator in 2.6.14 controls locality of the slab pages explicitly by calling alloc_pages_node(). The NUMA slab allocator manages slab entries by having lists of available slab pages for each node. The per cpu slab cache can only contain slab entries associated with the node local to the processor. This guarantees that the default allocation mode of the slab allocator always assigns local memory if available. Setting MPOL_INTERLEAVE as a default policy during bootup has no effect anymore. In 2.6.14 all node unspecific slab allocations are performed on the boot processor. This means that most of key data structures are allocated on one node. Most processors will have to refer to these structures making the boot node a potential bottleneck. This may reduce performance and cause unnecessary memory pressure on the boot node. This patch implements NUMA policies in the slab layer. There is the need of explicit application of NUMA memory policies by the slab allcator itself since the NUMA slab allocator does no longer let the page_allocator control locality. The check for policies is made directly at the beginning of __cache_alloc using current->mempolicy. The memory policy is already frequently checked by the page allocator (alloc_page_vma() and alloc_page_current()). So it is highly likely that the cacheline is present. For MPOL_INTERLEAVE kmalloc() will spread out each request to one node after another so that an equal distribution of allocations can be obtained during bootup. It is not possible to push the policy check to lower layers of the NUMA slab allocator since the per cpu caches are now only containing slab entries from the current node. If the policy says that the local node is not to be preferred or forbidden then there is no point in checking the slab cache or local list of slab pages. The allocation better be directed immediately to the lists containing slab entries for the allowed set of nodes. This way of applying policy also fixes another strange behavior in 2.6.13. alloc_pages() is controlled by the memory allocation policy of the current process. It could therefore be that one process is running with MPOL_INTERLEAVE and would f.e. obtain a new page following that policy since no slab entries are in the lists anymore. A page can typically be used for multiple slab entries but lets say that the current process is only using one. The other entries are then added to the slab lists. These are now non local entries in the slab lists despite of the possible availability of local pages that would provide faster access and increase the performance of the application. Another process without MPOL_INTERLEAVE may now run and expect a local slab entry from kmalloc(). However, there are still these free slab entries from the off node page obtained from the other process via MPOL_INTERLEAVE in the cache. The process will then get an off node slab entry although other slab entries may be available that are local to that process. This means that the policy if one process may contaminate the locality of the slab caches for other processes. This patch in effect insures that a per process policy is followed for the allocation of slab entries and that there cannot be a memory policy influence from one process to another. A process with default policy will always get a local slab entry if one is available. And the process using memory policies will get its memory arranged as requested. Off-node slab allocation will require the use of spinlocks and will make the use of per cpu caches not possible. A process using memory policies to redirect allocations offnode will have to cope with additional lock overhead in addition to the latency added by the need to access a remote slab entry. Changes V1->V2 - Remove #ifdef CONFIG_NUMA by moving forward declaration into prior #ifdef CONFIG_NUMA section. - Give the function determining the node number to use a saner name.

slab: setup allocators earlier in the boot sequence This patch makes kmalloc() available earlier in the boot sequence so we can get rid of some bootmem allocations. The bulk of the changes are due to kmem_cache_init() being called with interrupts disabled which requires some changes to allocator boostrap code. Note: 32-bit x86 does WP protect test in mem_init() so we must setup traps before we call mem_init() during boot as reported by Ingo Molnar: We have a hard crash in the WP-protect code: [ 0.000000] Checking if this processor honours the WP bit even in supervisor mode...BUG: Int 14: CR2 ffcff000 [ 0.000000] EDI 00000188 ESI 00000ac7 EBP c17eaf9c ESP c17eaf8c [ 0.000000] EBX 000014e0 EDX 0000000e ECX 01856067 EAX 00000001 [ 0.000000] err 00000003 EIP c10135b1 CS 00000060 flg 00010002 [ 0.000000] Stack: c17eafa8 c17fd410 c16747bc c17eafc4 c17fd7e5 000011fd f8616000 c18237cc [ 0.000000] 00099800 c17bb000 c17eafec c17f1668 000001c5 c17f1322 c166e039 c1822bf0 [ 0.000000] c166e033 c153a014 c18237cc 00020800 c17eaff8 c17f106a 00020800 01ba5003 [ 0.000000] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.30-tip-02161-g7a74539-dirty #52203 [ 0.000000] Call Trace: [ 0.000000] [<c15357c2>] ? printk+0x14/0x16 [ 0.000000] [<c10135b1>] ? do_test_wp_bit+0x19/0x23 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd410>] ? test_wp_bit+0x26/0x64 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd7e5>] ? mem_init+0x1ba/0x1d8 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1668>] ? start_kernel+0x164/0x2f7 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1322>] ? unknown_bootoption+0x0/0x19c [ 0.000000] [<c17f106a>] ? __init_begin+0x6a/0x6f Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

slab: setup allocators earlier in the boot sequence This patch makes kmalloc() available earlier in the boot sequence so we can get rid of some bootmem allocations. The bulk of the changes are due to kmem_cache_init() being called with interrupts disabled which requires some changes to allocator boostrap code. Note: 32-bit x86 does WP protect test in mem_init() so we must setup traps before we call mem_init() during boot as reported by Ingo Molnar: We have a hard crash in the WP-protect code: [ 0.000000] Checking if this processor honours the WP bit even in supervisor mode...BUG: Int 14: CR2 ffcff000 [ 0.000000] EDI 00000188 ESI 00000ac7 EBP c17eaf9c ESP c17eaf8c [ 0.000000] EBX 000014e0 EDX 0000000e ECX 01856067 EAX 00000001 [ 0.000000] err 00000003 EIP c10135b1 CS 00000060 flg 00010002 [ 0.000000] Stack: c17eafa8 c17fd410 c16747bc c17eafc4 c17fd7e5 000011fd f8616000 c18237cc [ 0.000000] 00099800 c17bb000 c17eafec c17f1668 000001c5 c17f1322 c166e039 c1822bf0 [ 0.000000] c166e033 c153a014 c18237cc 00020800 c17eaff8 c17f106a 00020800 01ba5003 [ 0.000000] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.30-tip-02161-g7a74539-dirty #52203 [ 0.000000] Call Trace: [ 0.000000] [<c15357c2>] ? printk+0x14/0x16 [ 0.000000] [<c10135b1>] ? do_test_wp_bit+0x19/0x23 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd410>] ? test_wp_bit+0x26/0x64 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd7e5>] ? mem_init+0x1ba/0x1d8 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1668>] ? start_kernel+0x164/0x2f7 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1322>] ? unknown_bootoption+0x0/0x19c [ 0.000000] [<c17f106a>] ? __init_begin+0x6a/0x6f Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc. Test run on a 32p systems with 32G Ram. w/o patch Tasks jobs/min jti jobs/min/task real cpu 1 485.36 100 485.3640 11.99 1.91 Sat Apr 30 14:01:51 2005 100 26582.63 88 265.8263 21.89 144.96 Sat Apr 30 14:02:14 2005 200 29866.83 81 149.3342 38.97 286.08 Sat Apr 30 14:02:53 2005 300 33127.16 78 110.4239 52.71 426.54 Sat Apr 30 14:03:46 2005 400 34889.47 80 87.2237 66.72 568.90 Sat Apr 30 14:04:53 2005 500 35654.34 76 71.3087 81.62 714.55 Sat Apr 30 14:06:15 2005 600 36460.83 75 60.7681 95.77 853.42 Sat Apr 30 14:07:51 2005 700 35957.00 75 51.3671 113.30 990.67 Sat Apr 30 14:09:45 2005 800 33380.65 73 41.7258 139.48 1140.86 Sat Apr 30 14:12:05 2005 900 35095.01 76 38.9945 149.25 1281.30 Sat Apr 30 14:14:35 2005 1000 36094.37 74 36.0944 161.24 1419.66 Sat Apr 30 14:17:17 2005 w/patch Tasks jobs/min jti jobs/min/task real cpu 1 484.27 100 484.2736 12.02 1.93 Sat Apr 30 15:59:45 2005 100 28262.03 90 282.6203 20.59 143.57 Sat Apr 30 16:00:06 2005 200 32246.45 82 161.2322 36.10 282.89 Sat Apr 30 16:00:42 2005 300 37945.80 83 126.4860 46.01 418.75 Sat Apr 30 16:01:28 2005 400 40000.69 81 100.0017 58.20 561.48 Sat Apr 30 16:02:27 2005 500 40976.10 78 81.9522 71.02 696.95 Sat Apr 30 16:03:38 2005 600 41121.54 78 68.5359 84.92 834.86 Sat Apr 30 16:05:04 2005 700 44052.77 78 62.9325 92.48 971.53 Sat Apr 30 16:06:37 2005 800 41066.89 79 51.3336 113.38 1111.15 Sat Apr 30 16:08:31 2005 900 38918.77 79 43.2431 134.59 1252.57 Sat Apr 30 16:10:46 2005 1000 41842.21 76 41.8422 139.09 1392.33 Sat Apr 30 16:13:05 2005 These are measurement taken directly after boot and show a greater improvement than 5%.

[PATCH] slab: Node rotor for freeing alien caches and remote per cpu pages. The cache reaper currently tries to free all alien caches and all remote per cpu pages in each pass of cache_reap. For a machines with large number of nodes (such as Altix) this may lead to sporadic delays of around ~10ms. Interrupts are disabled while reclaiming creating unacceptable delays. This patch changes that behavior by adding a per cpu reap_node variable. Instead of attempting to free all caches, we free only one alien cache and the per cpu pages from one remote node. That reduces the time spend in cache_reap. However, doing so will lengthen the time it takes to completely drain all remote per cpu pagesets and all alien caches. The time needed will grow with the number of nodes in the system. All caches are drained when they overflow their respective capacity. So the drawback here is only that a bit of memory may be wasted for awhile longer. Details: 1. Rename drain_remote_pages to drain_node_pages to allow the specification of the node to drain of pcp pages. 2. Add additional functions init_reap_node, next_reap_node for NUMA that manage a per cpu reap_node counter. 3. Add a reap_alien function that reaps only from the current reap_node. For us this seems to be a critical issue. Holdoffs of an average of ~7ms cause some HPC benchmarks to slow down significantly. F.e. NAS parallel slows down dramatically. NAS parallel has a 12-16 seconds runtime w/o rotor compared to 5.8 secs with the rotor patches. It gets down to 5.05 secs with the additional interrupt holdoff reductions.

[PATCH] NUMA slab locking fixes: fix cpu down and up locking This fixes locking and bugs in cpu_down and cpu_up paths of the NUMA slab allocator. Sonny Rao <sonny@burdell.org> reported problems sometime back on POWER5 boxes, when the last cpu on the nodes were being offlined. We could not reproduce the same on x86_64 because the cpumask (node_to_cpumask) was not being updated on cpu down. Since that issue is now fixed, we can reproduce Sonny's problems on x86_64 NUMA, and here is the fix. The problem earlier was on CPU_DOWN, if it was the last cpu on the node to go down, the array_caches (shared, alien) and the kmem_list3 of the node were being freed (kfree) with the kmem_list3 lock held. If the l3 or the array_caches were to come from the same cache being cleared, we hit on badness. This patch cleans up the locking in cpu_up and cpu_down path. We cannot really free l3 on cpu down because, there is no node offlining yet and even though a cpu is not yet up, node local memory can be allocated for it. So l3s are usually allocated at keme_cache_create and destroyed at kmem_cache_destroy. Hence, we don't need cachep->spinlock protection to get to the cachep->nodelist[nodeid] either. Patch survived onlining and offlining on a 4 core 2 node Tyan box with a 4 dbench process running all the time.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

numa: slab: use numa_mem_id() for slab local memory node Example usage of generic "numa_mem_id()": The mainline slab code, since ~ 2.6.19, does not handle memoryless nodes well. Specifically, the "fast path"--____cache_alloc()--will never succeed as slab doesn't cache offnode object on the per cpu queues, and for memoryless nodes, all memory will be "off node" relative to numa_node_id(). This adds significant overhead to all kmem cache allocations, incurring a significant regression relative to earlier kernels [from before slab.c was reorganized]. This patch uses the generic topology function "numa_mem_id()" to return the "effective local memory node" for the calling context. This is the first node in the local node's generic fallback zonelist-- the same node that "local" mempolicy-based allocations would use. This lets slab cache these "local" allocations and avoid fallback/refill on every allocation. N.B.: Slab will need to handle node and memory hotplug events that could change the value returned by numa_mem_id() for any given node if recent changes to address memory hotplug don't already address this. E.g., flush all per cpu slab queues before rebuilding the zonelists while the "machine" is held in the stopped state.

numa: slab: use numa_mem_id() for slab local memory node Example usage of generic "numa_mem_id()": The mainline slab code, since ~ 2.6.19, does not handle memoryless nodes well. Specifically, the "fast path"--____cache_alloc()--will never succeed as slab doesn't cache offnode object on the per cpu queues, and for memoryless nodes, all memory will be "off node" relative to numa_node_id(). This adds significant overhead to all kmem cache allocations, incurring a significant regression relative to earlier kernels [from before slab.c was reorganized]. This patch uses the generic topology function "numa_mem_id()" to return the "effective local memory node" for the calling context. This is the first node in the local node's generic fallback zonelist-- the same node that "local" mempolicy-based allocations would use. This lets slab cache these "local" allocations and avoid fallback/refill on every allocation. N.B.: Slab will need to handle node and memory hotplug events that could change the value returned by numa_mem_id() for any given node if recent changes to address memory hotplug don't already address this. E.g., flush all per cpu slab queues before rebuilding the zonelists while the "machine" is held in the stopped state.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc. Test run on a 32p systems with 32G Ram. w/o patch Tasks jobs/min jti jobs/min/task real cpu 1 485.36 100 485.3640 11.99 1.91 Sat Apr 30 14:01:51 2005 100 26582.63 88 265.8263 21.89 144.96 Sat Apr 30 14:02:14 2005 200 29866.83 81 149.3342 38.97 286.08 Sat Apr 30 14:02:53 2005 300 33127.16 78 110.4239 52.71 426.54 Sat Apr 30 14:03:46 2005 400 34889.47 80 87.2237 66.72 568.90 Sat Apr 30 14:04:53 2005 500 35654.34 76 71.3087 81.62 714.55 Sat Apr 30 14:06:15 2005 600 36460.83 75 60.7681 95.77 853.42 Sat Apr 30 14:07:51 2005 700 35957.00 75 51.3671 113.30 990.67 Sat Apr 30 14:09:45 2005 800 33380.65 73 41.7258 139.48 1140.86 Sat Apr 30 14:12:05 2005 900 35095.01 76 38.9945 149.25 1281.30 Sat Apr 30 14:14:35 2005 1000 36094.37 74 36.0944 161.24 1419.66 Sat Apr 30 14:17:17 2005 w/patch Tasks jobs/min jti jobs/min/task real cpu 1 484.27 100 484.2736 12.02 1.93 Sat Apr 30 15:59:45 2005 100 28262.03 90 282.6203 20.59 143.57 Sat Apr 30 16:00:06 2005 200 32246.45 82 161.2322 36.10 282.89 Sat Apr 30 16:00:42 2005 300 37945.80 83 126.4860 46.01 418.75 Sat Apr 30 16:01:28 2005 400 40000.69 81 100.0017 58.20 561.48 Sat Apr 30 16:02:27 2005 500 40976.10 78 81.9522 71.02 696.95 Sat Apr 30 16:03:38 2005 600 41121.54 78 68.5359 84.92 834.86 Sat Apr 30 16:05:04 2005 700 44052.77 78 62.9325 92.48 971.53 Sat Apr 30 16:06:37 2005 800 41066.89 79 51.3336 113.38 1111.15 Sat Apr 30 16:08:31 2005 900 38918.77 79 43.2431 134.59 1252.57 Sat Apr 30 16:10:46 2005 1000 41842.21 76 41.8422 139.09 1392.33 Sat Apr 30 16:13:05 2005 These are measurement taken directly after boot and show a greater improvement than 5%.

[PATCH] NUMA slab locking fixes: fix cpu down and up locking This fixes locking and bugs in cpu_down and cpu_up paths of the NUMA slab allocator. Sonny Rao <sonny@burdell.org> reported problems sometime back on POWER5 boxes, when the last cpu on the nodes were being offlined. We could not reproduce the same on x86_64 because the cpumask (node_to_cpumask) was not being updated on cpu down. Since that issue is now fixed, we can reproduce Sonny's problems on x86_64 NUMA, and here is the fix. The problem earlier was on CPU_DOWN, if it was the last cpu on the node to go down, the array_caches (shared, alien) and the kmem_list3 of the node were being freed (kfree) with the kmem_list3 lock held. If the l3 or the array_caches were to come from the same cache being cleared, we hit on badness. This patch cleans up the locking in cpu_up and cpu_down path. We cannot really free l3 on cpu down because, there is no node offlining yet and even though a cpu is not yet up, node local memory can be allocated for it. So l3s are usually allocated at keme_cache_create and destroyed at kmem_cache_destroy. Hence, we don't need cachep->spinlock protection to get to the cachep->nodelist[nodeid] either. Patch survived onlining and offlining on a 4 core 2 node Tyan box with a 4 dbench process running all the time.

SLAB: Fix lockdep annotations for CPU hotplug As reported by Paul McKenney: I am seeing some lockdep complaints in rcutorture runs that include frequent CPU-hotplug operations. The tests are otherwise successful. My first thought was to send a patch that gave each array_cache structure's ->lock field its own struct lock_class_key, but you already have a init_lock_keys() that seems to be intended to deal with this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ============================================= [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ] 2.6.32-rc4-autokern1 #1 --------------------------------------------- syslogd/2908 is trying to acquire lock: (&nc->lock){..-...}, at: [<c0000000001407f4>] .kmem_cache_free+0x118/0x2d4 but task is already holding lock: (&nc->lock){..-...}, at: [<c0000000001411bc>] .kfree+0x1f0/0x324 other info that might help us debug this: 3 locks held by syslogd/2908: #0: (&u->readlock){+.+.+.}, at: [<c0000000004556f8>] .unix_dgram_recvmsg+0x70/0x338 #1: (&nc->lock){..-...}, at: [<c0000000001411bc>] .kfree+0x1f0/0x324 #2: (&parent->list_lock){-.-...}, at: [<c000000000140f64>] .__drain_alien_cache+0x50/0xb8 stack backtrace: Call Trace: [c0000000e8ccafc0] [c0000000000101e4] .show_stack+0x70/0x184 (unreliable) [c0000000e8ccb070] [c0000000000afebc] .validate_chain+0x6ec/0xf58 [c0000000e8ccb180] [c0000000000b0ff0] .__lock_acquire+0x8c8/0x974 [c0000000e8ccb280] [c0000000000b2290] .lock_acquire+0x140/0x18c [c0000000e8ccb350] [c000000000468df0] ._spin_lock+0x48/0x70 [c0000000e8ccb3e0] [c0000000001407f4] .kmem_cache_free+0x118/0x2d4 [c0000000e8ccb4a0] [c000000000140b90] .free_block+0x130/0x1a8 [c0000000e8ccb540] [c000000000140f94] .__drain_alien_cache+0x80/0xb8 [c0000000e8ccb5e0] [c0000000001411e0] .kfree+0x214/0x324 [c0000000e8ccb6a0] [c0000000003ca860] .skb_release_data+0xe8/0x104 [c0000000e8ccb730] [c0000000003ca2ec] .__kfree_skb+0x20/0xd4 [c0000000e8ccb7b0] [c0000000003cf2c8] .skb_free_datagram+0x1c/0x5c [c0000000e8ccb830] [c00000000045597c] .unix_dgram_recvmsg+0x2f4/0x338 [c0000000e8ccb920] [c0000000003c0f14] .sock_recvmsg+0xf4/0x13c [c0000000e8ccbb30] [c0000000003c28ec] .SyS_recvfrom+0xb4/0x130 [c0000000e8ccbcb0] [c0000000003bfb78] .sys_recv+0x18/0x2c [c0000000e8ccbd20] [c0000000003ed388] .compat_sys_recv+0x14/0x28 [c0000000e8ccbd90] [c0000000003ee1bc] .compat_sys_socketcall+0x178/0x220 [c0000000e8ccbe30] [c0000000000085d4] syscall_exit+0x0/0x40 This patch fixes the issue by setting up lockdep annotations during CPU hotplug.

[PATCH] NUMA slab locking fixes: fix cpu down and up locking This fixes locking and bugs in cpu_down and cpu_up paths of the NUMA slab allocator.

[PATCH] mm: slab: eliminate lock_cpu_hotplug from slab Here's an attempt towards doing away with lock_cpu_hotplug in the slab subsystem. This approach also fixes a bug which shows up when cpus are being offlined/onlined and slab caches are being tuned simultaneously. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=116098888100481&w=2 The patch has been stress tested overnight on a 2 socket 4 core AMD box with repeated cpu online and offline, while dbench and kernbench process are running, and slab caches being tuned at the same time. There were no lockdep warnings either. (This test on 2,6.18 as 2.6.19-rc crashes at __drain_pages http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=116172164217678&w=2 ) The approach here is to hold cache_chain_mutex from CPU_UP_PREPARE until CPU_ONLINE (similar in approach as worqueue_mutex) . Slab code sensitive to cpu_online_map (kmem_cache_create, kmem_cache_destroy, slabinfo_write, __cache_shrink) is already serialized with cache_chain_mutex. (This patch lengthens cache_chain_mutex hold time at kmem_cache_destroy to cover this). This patch also takes the cache_chain_sem at kmem_cache_shrink to protect sanity of cpu_online_map at __cache_shrink, as viewed by slab. (kmem_cache_shrink->__cache_shrink->drain_cpu_caches). But, really, kmem_cache_shrink is used at just one place in the acpi subsystem! Do we really need to keep kmem_cache_shrink at all? Another note. Looks like a cpu hotplug event can send CPU_UP_CANCELED to a registered subsystem even if the subsystem did not receive CPU_UP_PREPARE. This could be due to a subsystem registered for notification earlier than the current subsystem crapping out with NOTIFY_BAD. Badness can occur with in the CPU_UP_CANCELED code path at slab if this happens (The same would apply for workqueue.c as well). To overcome this, we might have to use either a) a per subsystem flag and avoid handling of CPU_UP_CANCELED, or b) Use a special notifier events like LOCK_ACQUIRE/RELEASE as Gautham was using in his experiments, or c) Do not send CPU_UP_CANCELED to a subsystem which did not receive CPU_UP_PREPARE. I would prefer c).

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

slab: setup allocators earlier in the boot sequence This patch makes kmalloc() available earlier in the boot sequence so we can get rid of some bootmem allocations. The bulk of the changes are due to kmem_cache_init() being called with interrupts disabled which requires some changes to allocator boostrap code. Note: 32-bit x86 does WP protect test in mem_init() so we must setup traps before we call mem_init() during boot as reported by Ingo Molnar: We have a hard crash in the WP-protect code: [ 0.000000] Checking if this processor honours the WP bit even in supervisor mode...BUG: Int 14: CR2 ffcff000 [ 0.000000] EDI 00000188 ESI 00000ac7 EBP c17eaf9c ESP c17eaf8c [ 0.000000] EBX 000014e0 EDX 0000000e ECX 01856067 EAX 00000001 [ 0.000000] err 00000003 EIP c10135b1 CS 00000060 flg 00010002 [ 0.000000] Stack: c17eafa8 c17fd410 c16747bc c17eafc4 c17fd7e5 000011fd f8616000 c18237cc [ 0.000000] 00099800 c17bb000 c17eafec c17f1668 000001c5 c17f1322 c166e039 c1822bf0 [ 0.000000] c166e033 c153a014 c18237cc 00020800 c17eaff8 c17f106a 00020800 01ba5003 [ 0.000000] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.30-tip-02161-g7a74539-dirty #52203 [ 0.000000] Call Trace: [ 0.000000] [<c15357c2>] ? printk+0x14/0x16 [ 0.000000] [<c10135b1>] ? do_test_wp_bit+0x19/0x23 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd410>] ? test_wp_bit+0x26/0x64 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd7e5>] ? mem_init+0x1ba/0x1d8 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1668>] ? start_kernel+0x164/0x2f7 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1322>] ? unknown_bootoption+0x0/0x19c [ 0.000000] [<c17f106a>] ? __init_begin+0x6a/0x6f Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>

numa: slab: use numa_mem_id() for slab local memory node Example usage of generic "numa_mem_id()": The mainline slab code, since ~ 2.6.19, does not handle memoryless nodes well. Specifically, the "fast path"--____cache_alloc()--will never succeed as slab doesn't cache offnode object on the per cpu queues, and for memoryless nodes, all memory will be "off node" relative to numa_node_id(). This adds significant overhead to all kmem cache allocations, incurring a significant regression relative to earlier kernels [from before slab.c was reorganized]. This patch uses the generic topology function "numa_mem_id()" to return the "effective local memory node" for the calling context. This is the first node in the local node's generic fallback zonelist-- the same node that "local" mempolicy-based allocations would use. This lets slab cache these "local" allocations and avoid fallback/refill on every allocation. N.B.: Slab will need to handle node and memory hotplug events that could change the value returned by numa_mem_id() for any given node if recent changes to address memory hotplug don't already address this. E.g., flush all per cpu slab queues before rebuilding the zonelists while the "machine" is held in the stopped state.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

slab: setup allocators earlier in the boot sequence This patch makes kmalloc() available earlier in the boot sequence so we can get rid of some bootmem allocations. The bulk of the changes are due to kmem_cache_init() being called with interrupts disabled which requires some changes to allocator boostrap code. Note: 32-bit x86 does WP protect test in mem_init() so we must setup traps before we call mem_init() during boot as reported by Ingo Molnar: We have a hard crash in the WP-protect code: [ 0.000000] Checking if this processor honours the WP bit even in supervisor mode...BUG: Int 14: CR2 ffcff000 [ 0.000000] EDI 00000188 ESI 00000ac7 EBP c17eaf9c ESP c17eaf8c [ 0.000000] EBX 000014e0 EDX 0000000e ECX 01856067 EAX 00000001 [ 0.000000] err 00000003 EIP c10135b1 CS 00000060 flg 00010002 [ 0.000000] Stack: c17eafa8 c17fd410 c16747bc c17eafc4 c17fd7e5 000011fd f8616000 c18237cc [ 0.000000] 00099800 c17bb000 c17eafec c17f1668 000001c5 c17f1322 c166e039 c1822bf0 [ 0.000000] c166e033 c153a014 c18237cc 00020800 c17eaff8 c17f106a 00020800 01ba5003 [ 0.000000] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.30-tip-02161-g7a74539-dirty #52203 [ 0.000000] Call Trace: [ 0.000000] [<c15357c2>] ? printk+0x14/0x16 [ 0.000000] [<c10135b1>] ? do_test_wp_bit+0x19/0x23 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd410>] ? test_wp_bit+0x26/0x64 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd7e5>] ? mem_init+0x1ba/0x1d8 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1668>] ? start_kernel+0x164/0x2f7 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1322>] ? unknown_bootoption+0x0/0x19c [ 0.000000] [<c17f106a>] ? __init_begin+0x6a/0x6f Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

[PATCH] GFP_THISNODE for the slab allocator This patch insures that the slab node lists in the NUMA case only contain slabs that belong to that specific node. All slab allocations use GFP_THISNODE when calling into the page allocator. If an allocation fails then we fall back in the slab allocator according to the zonelists appropriate for a certain context. This allows a replication of the behavior of alloc_pages and alloc_pages node in the slab layer. Currently allocations requested from the page allocator may be redirected via cpusets to other nodes. This results in remote pages on nodelists and that in turn results in interrupt latency issues during cache draining. Plus the slab is handing out memory as local when it is really remote. Fallback for slab memory allocations will occur within the slab allocator and not in the page allocator. This is necessary in order to be able to use the existing pools of objects on the nodes that we fall back to before adding more pages to a slab. The fallback function insures that the nodes we fall back to obey cpuset restrictions of the current context. We do not allocate objects from outside of the current cpuset context like before. Note that the implementation of locality constraints within the slab allocator requires importing logic from the page allocator. This is a mischmash that is not that great. Other allocators (uncached allocator, vmalloc, huge pages) face similar problems and have similar minimal reimplementations of the basic fallback logic of the page allocator. There is another way of implementing a slab by avoiding per node lists (see modular slab) but this wont work within the existing slab.

[PATCH] slab: better fallback allocation behavior Currently we simply attempt to allocate from all allowed nodes using GFP_THISNODE. However, GFP_THISNODE does not do reclaim (it wont do any at all if the recent GFP_THISNODE patch is accepted). If we truly run out of memory in the whole system then fallback_alloc may return NULL although memory may still be available if we would perform more thorough reclaim. This patch changes fallback_alloc() so that we first only inspect all the per node queues for available slabs. If we find any then we allocate from those. This avoids slab fragmentation by first getting rid of all partial allocated slabs on every node before allocating new memory. If we cannot satisfy the allocation from any per node queue then we extend a slab. We now call into the page allocator without specifying GFP_THISNODE. The page allocator will then implement its own fallback (in the given cpuset context), perform necessary reclaim (again considering not a single node but the whole set of allowed nodes) and then return pages for a new slab. We identify from which node the pages were allocated and then insert the pages into the corresponding per node structure. In order to do so we need to modify cache_grow() to take a parameter that specifies the new slab. kmem_getpages() can no longer set the GFP_THISNODE flag since we need to be able to use kmem_getpage to allocate from an arbitrary node. GFP_THISNODE needs to be specified when calling cache_grow(). One key advantage is that the decision from which node to allocate new memory is removed from slab fallback processing. The patch allows to go back to use of the page allocators fallback/reclaim logic.

Increase slab redzone to 64bits There are two problems with the existing redzone implementation. Firstly, it's causing misalignment of structures which contain a 64-bit integer, such as netfilter's 'struct ipt_entry' -- causing netfilter modules to fail to load because of the misalignment. (In particular, the first check in net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c::check_entry_size_and_hooks()) On ppc32 and sparc32, amongst others, __alignof__(uint64_t) == 8. With slab debugging, we use 32-bit redzones. And allocated slab objects aren't sufficiently aligned to hold a structure containing a uint64_t. By _just_ setting ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to __alignof__(u64) we'd disable redzone checks on those architectures. By using 64-bit redzones we avoid that loss of debugging, and also fix the other problem while we're at it. When investigating this, I noticed that on 64-bit platforms we're using a 32-bit value of RED_ACTIVE/RED_INACTIVE in the 64-bit memory location set aside for the redzone. Which means that the four bytes immediately before or after the allocated object at 0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00 for LE and BE machines, respectively. Which is probably not the most useful choice of poison value. One way to fix both of those at once is just to switch to 64-bit redzones in all cases.

The fix is to move the calculation to the place that makes use of it. This also makes slab.o 54 bytes smaller. Btw., the check itself is quite silly. Its intention is to test whether the number of objects per slab would be higher than the number of slab control pointers possible. In theory it could be triggered: if someone tried to allocate 4-byte objects cache and explicitly requested with CFLGS_OFF_SLAB. So i kept the check. Out of historic interest i checked how old this bug was and it's ancient, 10 years old! It is the oldest hidden and then truly triggering bugs i ever saw being fixed in the kernel!

The fix is to move the calculation to the place that makes use of it. This also makes slab.o 54 bytes smaller. Btw., the check itself is quite silly. Its intention is to test whether the number of objects per slab would be higher than the number of slab control pointers possible. In theory it could be triggered: if someone tried to allocate 4-byte objects cache and explicitly requested with CFLGS_OFF_SLAB. So i kept the check. Out of historic interest i checked how old this bug was and it's ancient, 10 years old! It is the oldest hidden and then truly triggering bugs i ever saw being fixed in the kernel!

numa: slab: use numa_mem_id() for slab local memory node Example usage of generic "numa_mem_id()": The mainline slab code, since ~ 2.6.19, does not handle memoryless nodes well. Specifically, the "fast path"--____cache_alloc()--will never succeed as slab doesn't cache offnode object on the per cpu queues, and for memoryless nodes, all memory will be "off node" relative to numa_node_id(). This adds significant overhead to all kmem cache allocations, incurring a significant regression relative to earlier kernels [from before slab.c was reorganized]. This patch uses the generic topology function "numa_mem_id()" to return the "effective local memory node" for the calling context. This is the first node in the local node's generic fallback zonelist-- the same node that "local" mempolicy-based allocations would use. This lets slab cache these "local" allocations and avoid fallback/refill on every allocation. N.B.: Slab will need to handle node and memory hotplug events that could change the value returned by numa_mem_id() for any given node if recent changes to address memory hotplug don't already address this. E.g., flush all per cpu slab queues before rebuilding the zonelists while the "machine" is held in the stopped state.

[PATCH] mm: slab: eliminate lock_cpu_hotplug from slab Here's an attempt towards doing away with lock_cpu_hotplug in the slab subsystem. This approach also fixes a bug which shows up when cpus are being offlined/onlined and slab caches are being tuned simultaneously. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=116098888100481&w=2 The patch has been stress tested overnight on a 2 socket 4 core AMD box with repeated cpu online and offline, while dbench and kernbench process are running, and slab caches being tuned at the same time. There were no lockdep warnings either. (This test on 2,6.18 as 2.6.19-rc crashes at __drain_pages http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=116172164217678&w=2 ) The approach here is to hold cache_chain_mutex from CPU_UP_PREPARE until CPU_ONLINE (similar in approach as worqueue_mutex) . Slab code sensitive to cpu_online_map (kmem_cache_create, kmem_cache_destroy, slabinfo_write, __cache_shrink) is already serialized with cache_chain_mutex. (This patch lengthens cache_chain_mutex hold time at kmem_cache_destroy to cover this). This patch also takes the cache_chain_sem at kmem_cache_shrink to protect sanity of cpu_online_map at __cache_shrink, as viewed by slab. (kmem_cache_shrink->__cache_shrink->drain_cpu_caches). But, really, kmem_cache_shrink is used at just one place in the acpi subsystem! Do we really need to keep kmem_cache_shrink at all? Another note. Looks like a cpu hotplug event can send CPU_UP_CANCELED to a registered subsystem even if the subsystem did not receive CPU_UP_PREPARE. This could be due to a subsystem registered for notification earlier than the current subsystem crapping out with NOTIFY_BAD. Badness can occur with in the CPU_UP_CANCELED code path at slab if this happens (The same would apply for workqueue.c as well). To overcome this, we might have to use either a) a per subsystem flag and avoid handling of CPU_UP_CANCELED, or b) Use a special notifier events like LOCK_ACQUIRE/RELEASE as Gautham was using in his experiments, or c) Do not send CPU_UP_CANCELED to a subsystem which did not receive CPU_UP_PREPARE. I would prefer c).

Note: 32-bit x86 does WP protect test in mem_init() so we must setup traps before we call mem_init() during boot as reported by Ingo Molnar: We have a hard crash in the WP-protect code: [ 0.000000] Checking if this processor honours the WP bit even in supervisor mode...BUG: Int 14: CR2 ffcff000 [ 0.000000] EDI 00000188 ESI 00000ac7 EBP c17eaf9c ESP c17eaf8c [ 0.000000] EBX 000014e0 EDX 0000000e ECX 01856067 EAX 00000001 [ 0.000000] err 00000003 EIP c10135b1 CS 00000060 flg 00010002 [ 0.000000] Stack: c17eafa8 c17fd410 c16747bc c17eafc4 c17fd7e5 000011fd f8616000 c18237cc [ 0.000000] 00099800 c17bb000 c17eafec c17f1668 000001c5 c17f1322 c166e039 c1822bf0 [ 0.000000] c166e033 c153a014 c18237cc 00020800 c17eaff8 c17f106a 00020800 01ba5003 [ 0.000000] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.30-tip-02161-g7a74539-dirty #52203 [ 0.000000] Call Trace: [ 0.000000] [<c15357c2>] ? printk+0x14/0x16 [ 0.000000] [<c10135b1>] ? do_test_wp_bit+0x19/0x23 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd410>] ? test_wp_bit+0x26/0x64 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd7e5>] ? mem_init+0x1ba/0x1d8 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1668>] ? start_kernel+0x164/0x2f7 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1322>] ? unknown_bootoption+0x0/0x19c [ 0.000000] [<c17f106a>] ? __init_begin+0x6a/0x6f Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>

slab: setup allocators earlier in the boot sequence This patch makes kmalloc() available earlier in the boot sequence so we can get rid of some bootmem allocations. The bulk of the changes are due to kmem_cache_init() being called with interrupts disabled which requires some changes to allocator boostrap code.

numa: slab: use numa_mem_id() for slab local memory node Example usage of generic "numa_mem_id()": The mainline slab code, since ~ 2.6.19, does not handle memoryless nodes well. Specifically, the "fast path"--____cache_alloc()--will never succeed as slab doesn't cache offnode object on the per cpu queues, and for memoryless nodes, all memory will be "off node" relative to numa_node_id(). This adds significant overhead to all kmem cache allocations, incurring a significant regression relative to earlier kernels [from before slab.c was reorganized]. This patch uses the generic topology function "numa_mem_id()" to return the "effective local memory node" for the calling context. This is the first node in the local node's generic fallback zonelist-- the same node that "local" mempolicy-based allocations would use. This lets slab cache these "local" allocations and avoid fallback/refill on every allocation. N.B.: Slab will need to handle node and memory hotplug events that could change the value returned by numa_mem_id() for any given node if recent changes to address memory hotplug don't already address this. E.g., flush all per cpu slab queues before rebuilding the zonelists while the "machine" is held in the stopped state.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

numa: slab: use numa_mem_id() for slab local memory node Example usage of generic "numa_mem_id()": The mainline slab code, since ~ 2.6.19, does not handle memoryless nodes well. Specifically, the "fast path"--____cache_alloc()--will never succeed as slab doesn't cache offnode object on the per cpu queues, and for memoryless nodes, all memory will be "off node" relative to numa_node_id(). This adds significant overhead to all kmem cache allocations, incurring a significant regression relative to earlier kernels [from before slab.c was reorganized]. This patch uses the generic topology function "numa_mem_id()" to return the "effective local memory node" for the calling context. This is the first node in the local node's generic fallback zonelist-- the same node that "local" mempolicy-based allocations would use. This lets slab cache these "local" allocations and avoid fallback/refill on every allocation. N.B.: Slab will need to handle node and memory hotplug events that could change the value returned by numa_mem_id() for any given node if recent changes to address memory hotplug don't already address this. E.g., flush all per cpu slab queues before rebuilding the zonelists while the "machine" is held in the stopped state.

The cache lines of the single node are distributed/interleaved over the memory of the real physical nodes, but the zone lock, list heads, ... of the single node with memory still each live in a single cache line that is accessed from all processors. x86_64 [8x6 AMD] [avg of 40]: 2.883 2.845 Signed-off-by: Lee Schermerhorn <lee.schermerhorn@hp.com> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Eric Whitney <eric.whitney@hp.com> Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: "H.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter.

[PATCH] mm: slab: eliminate lock_cpu_hotplug from slab Here's an attempt towards doing away with lock_cpu_hotplug in the slab subsystem. This approach also fixes a bug which shows up when cpus are being offlined/onlined and slab caches are being tuned simultaneously. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=116098888100481&w=2 The patch has been stress tested overnight on a 2 socket 4 core AMD box with repeated cpu online and offline, while dbench and kernbench process are running, and slab caches being tuned at the same time. There were no lockdep warnings either. (This test on 2,6.18 as 2.6.19-rc crashes at __drain_pages http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=116172164217678&w=2 ) The approach here is to hold cache_chain_mutex from CPU_UP_PREPARE until CPU_ONLINE (similar in approach as worqueue_mutex) . Slab code sensitive to cpu_online_map (kmem_cache_create, kmem_cache_destroy, slabinfo_write, __cache_shrink) is already serialized with cache_chain_mutex. (This patch lengthens cache_chain_mutex hold time at kmem_cache_destroy to cover this). This patch also takes the cache_chain_sem at kmem_cache_shrink to protect sanity of cpu_online_map at __cache_shrink, as viewed by slab. (kmem_cache_shrink->__cache_shrink->drain_cpu_caches). But, really, kmem_cache_shrink is used at just one place in the acpi subsystem! Do we really need to keep kmem_cache_shrink at all? Another note. Looks like a cpu hotplug event can send CPU_UP_CANCELED to a registered subsystem even if the subsystem did not receive CPU_UP_PREPARE. This could be due to a subsystem registered for notification earlier than the current subsystem crapping out with NOTIFY_BAD. Badness can occur with in the CPU_UP_CANCELED code path at slab if this happens (The same would apply for workqueue.c as well). To overcome this, we might have to use either a) a per subsystem flag and avoid handling of CPU_UP_CANCELED, or b) Use a special notifier events like LOCK_ACQUIRE/RELEASE as Gautham was using in his experiments, or c) Do not send CPU_UP_CANCELED to a subsystem which did not receive CPU_UP_PREPARE. I would prefer c).

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

[PATCH] mm: slab: eliminate lock_cpu_hotplug from slab Here's an attempt towards doing away with lock_cpu_hotplug in the slab subsystem. This approach also fixes a bug which shows up when cpus are being offlined/onlined and slab caches are being tuned simultaneously. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=116098888100481&w=2 The patch has been stress tested overnight on a 2 socket 4 core AMD box with repeated cpu online and offline, while dbench and kernbench process are running, and slab caches being tuned at the same time. There were no lockdep warnings either. (This test on 2,6.18 as 2.6.19-rc crashes at __drain_pages http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=116172164217678&w=2 ) The approach here is to hold cache_chain_mutex from CPU_UP_PREPARE until CPU_ONLINE (similar in approach as worqueue_mutex) . Slab code sensitive to cpu_online_map (kmem_cache_create, kmem_cache_destroy, slabinfo_write, __cache_shrink) is already serialized with cache_chain_mutex. (This patch lengthens cache_chain_mutex hold time at kmem_cache_destroy to cover this). This patch also takes the cache_chain_sem at kmem_cache_shrink to protect sanity of cpu_online_map at __cache_shrink, as viewed by slab. (kmem_cache_shrink->__cache_shrink->drain_cpu_caches). But, really, kmem_cache_shrink is used at just one place in the acpi subsystem! Do we really need to keep kmem_cache_shrink at all? Another note. Looks like a cpu hotplug event can send CPU_UP_CANCELED to a registered subsystem even if the subsystem did not receive CPU_UP_PREPARE. This could be due to a subsystem registered for notification earlier than the current subsystem crapping out with NOTIFY_BAD. Badness can occur with in the CPU_UP_CANCELED code path at slab if this happens (The same would apply for workqueue.c as well). To overcome this, we might have to use either a) a per subsystem flag and avoid handling of CPU_UP_CANCELED, or b) Use a special notifier events like LOCK_ACQUIRE/RELEASE as Gautham was using in his experiments, or c) Do not send CPU_UP_CANCELED to a subsystem which did not receive CPU_UP_PREPARE. I would prefer c).

[PATCH] slab: better fallback allocation behavior Currently we simply attempt to allocate from all allowed nodes using GFP_THISNODE. However, GFP_THISNODE does not do reclaim (it wont do any at all if the recent GFP_THISNODE patch is accepted). If we truly run out of memory in the whole system then fallback_alloc may return NULL although memory may still be available if we would perform more thorough reclaim. This patch changes fallback_alloc() so that we first only inspect all the per node queues for available slabs. If we find any then we allocate from those. This avoids slab fragmentation by first getting rid of all partial allocated slabs on every node before allocating new memory. If we cannot satisfy the allocation from any per node queue then we extend a slab. We now call into the page allocator without specifying GFP_THISNODE. The page allocator will then implement its own fallback (in the given cpuset context), perform necessary reclaim (again considering not a single node but the whole set of allowed nodes) and then return pages for a new slab. We identify from which node the pages were allocated and then insert the pages into the corresponding per node structure. In order to do so we need to modify cache_grow() to take a parameter that specifies the new slab. kmem_getpages() can no longer set the GFP_THISNODE flag since we need to be able to use kmem_getpage to allocate from an arbitrary node. GFP_THISNODE needs to be specified when calling cache_grow(). One key advantage is that the decision from which node to allocate new memory is removed from slab fallback processing. The patch allows to go back to use of the page allocators fallback/reclaim logic.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

Categorize GFP flags The function of GFP_LEVEL_MASK seems to be unclear. In order to clear up the mystery we get rid of it and replace GFP_LEVEL_MASK with 3 sets of GFP flags: GFP_RECLAIM_MASK Flags used to control page allocator reclaim behavior. GFP_CONSTRAINT_MASK Flags used to limit where allocations can occur. GFP_SLAB_BUG_MASK Flags that the slab allocator BUG()s on. These replace the uses of GFP_LEVEL mask in the slab allocators and in vmalloc.c. The use of the flags not included in these sets may occur as a result of a slab allocation standing in for a page allocation when constructing scatter gather lists. Extraneous flags are cleared and not passed through to the page allocator. __GFP_MOVABLE/RECLAIMABLE, __GFP_COLD and __GFP_COMP will now be ignored if passed to a slab allocator. Change the allocation of allocator meta data in SLAB and vmalloc to not pass through flags listed in GFP_CONSTRAINT_MASK. SLAB already removes the __GFP_THISNODE flag for such allocations. Generalize that to also cover vmalloc. The use of GFP_CONSTRAINT_MASK also includes __GFP_HARDWALL. The impact of allocator metadata placement on access latency to the cachelines of the object itself is minimal since metadata is only referenced on alloc and free. The attempt is still made to place the meta data optimally but we consistently allow fallback both in SLAB and vmalloc (SLUB does not need to allocate metadata like that). Allocator metadata may serve multiple in kernel users and thus should not be subject to the limitations arising from a single allocation context.

However, GFP_THISNODE does not do reclaim (it wont do any at all if the recent GFP_THISNODE patch is accepted). If we truly run out of memory in the whole system then fallback_alloc may return NULL although memory may still be available if we would perform more thorough reclaim. This patch changes fallback_alloc() so that we first only inspect all the per node queues for available slabs. If we find any then we allocate from those. This avoids slab fragmentation by first getting rid of all partial allocated slabs on every node before allocating new memory. If we cannot satisfy the allocation from any per node queue then we extend a slab. We now call into the page allocator without specifying GFP_THISNODE. The page allocator will then implement its own fallback (in the given cpuset context), perform necessary reclaim (again considering not a single node but the whole set of allowed nodes) and then return pages for a new slab. We identify from which node the pages were allocated and then insert the pages into the corresponding per node structure. In order to do so we need to modify cache_grow() to take a parameter that specifies the new slab. kmem_getpages() can no longer set the GFP_THISNODE flag since we need to be able to use kmem_getpage to allocate from an arbitrary node. GFP_THISNODE needs to be specified when calling cache_grow(). One key advantage is that the decision from which node to allocate new memory is removed from slab fallback processing. The patch allows to go back to use of the page allocators fallback/reclaim logic.

Categorize GFP flags The function of GFP_LEVEL_MASK seems to be unclear. In order to clear up the mystery we get rid of it and replace GFP_LEVEL_MASK with 3 sets of GFP flags: GFP_RECLAIM_MASK Flags used to control page allocator reclaim behavior. GFP_CONSTRAINT_MASK Flags used to limit where allocations can occur. GFP_SLAB_BUG_MASK Flags that the slab allocator BUG()s on. These replace the uses of GFP_LEVEL mask in the slab allocators and in vmalloc.c. The use of the flags not included in these sets may occur as a result of a slab allocation standing in for a page allocation when constructing scatter gather lists. Extraneous flags are cleared and not passed through to the page allocator. __GFP_MOVABLE/RECLAIMABLE, __GFP_COLD and __GFP_COMP will now be ignored if passed to a slab allocator. Change the allocation of allocator meta data in SLAB and vmalloc to not pass through flags listed in GFP_CONSTRAINT_MASK. SLAB already removes the __GFP_THISNODE flag for such allocations. Generalize that to also cover vmalloc. The use of GFP_CONSTRAINT_MASK also includes __GFP_HARDWALL. The impact of allocator metadata placement on access latency to the cachelines of the object itself is minimal since metadata is only referenced on alloc and free. The attempt is still made to place the meta data optimally but we consistently allow fallback both in SLAB and vmalloc (SLUB does not need to allocate metadata like that). Allocator metadata may serve multiple in kernel users and thus should not be subject to the limitations arising from a single allocation context.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

Increase slab redzone to 64bits There are two problems with the existing redzone implementation. Firstly, it's causing misalignment of structures which contain a 64-bit integer, such as netfilter's 'struct ipt_entry' -- causing netfilter modules to fail to load because of the misalignment. (In particular, the first check in net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c::check_entry_size_and_hooks()) On ppc32 and sparc32, amongst others, __alignof__(uint64_t) == 8. With slab debugging, we use 32-bit redzones. And allocated slab objects aren't sufficiently aligned to hold a structure containing a uint64_t. By _just_ setting ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to __alignof__(u64) we'd disable redzone checks on those architectures. By using 64-bit redzones we avoid that loss of debugging, and also fix the other problem while we're at it. When investigating this, I noticed that on 64-bit platforms we're using a 32-bit value of RED_ACTIVE/RED_INACTIVE in the 64-bit memory location set aside for the redzone. Which means that the four bytes immediately before or after the allocated object at 0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00 for LE and BE machines, respectively. Which is probably not the most useful choice of poison value. One way to fix both of those at once is just to switch to 64-bit redzones in all cases.

Increase slab redzone to 64bits There are two problems with the existing redzone implementation. Firstly, it's causing misalignment of structures which contain a 64-bit integer, such as netfilter's 'struct ipt_entry' -- causing netfilter modules to fail to load because of the misalignment. (In particular, the first check in net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c::check_entry_size_and_hooks()) On ppc32 and sparc32, amongst others, __alignof__(uint64_t) == 8. With slab debugging, we use 32-bit redzones. And allocated slab objects aren't sufficiently aligned to hold a structure containing a uint64_t. By _just_ setting ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to __alignof__(u64) we'd disable redzone checks on those architectures. By using 64-bit redzones we avoid that loss of debugging, and also fix the other problem while we're at it. When investigating this, I noticed that on 64-bit platforms we're using a 32-bit value of RED_ACTIVE/RED_INACTIVE in the 64-bit memory location set aside for the redzone. Which means that the four bytes immediately before or after the allocated object at 0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00 for LE and BE machines, respectively. Which is probably not the most useful choice of poison value. One way to fix both of those at once is just to switch to 64-bit redzones in all cases.

numa: slab: use numa_mem_id() for slab local memory node Example usage of generic "numa_mem_id()": The mainline slab code, since ~ 2.6.19, does not handle memoryless nodes well. Specifically, the "fast path"--____cache_alloc()--will never succeed as slab doesn't cache offnode object on the per cpu queues, and for memoryless nodes, all memory will be "off node" relative to numa_node_id(). This adds significant overhead to all kmem cache allocations, incurring a significant regression relative to earlier kernels [from before slab.c was reorganized]. This patch uses the generic topology function "numa_mem_id()" to return the "effective local memory node" for the calling context. This is the first node in the local node's generic fallback zonelist-- the same node that "local" mempolicy-based allocations would use. This lets slab cache these "local" allocations and avoid fallback/refill on every allocation. N.B.: Slab will need to handle node and memory hotplug events that could change the value returned by numa_mem_id() for any given node if recent changes to address memory hotplug don't already address this. E.g., flush all per cpu slab queues before rebuilding the zonelists while the "machine" is held in the stopped state.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

[PATCH] slab: better fallback allocation behavior Currently we simply attempt to allocate from all allowed nodes using GFP_THISNODE. However, GFP_THISNODE does not do reclaim (it wont do any at all if the recent GFP_THISNODE patch is accepted). If we truly run out of memory in the whole system then fallback_alloc may return NULL although memory may still be available if we would perform more thorough reclaim. This patch changes fallback_alloc() so that we first only inspect all the per node queues for available slabs. If we find any then we allocate from those. This avoids slab fragmentation by first getting rid of all partial allocated slabs on every node before allocating new memory. If we cannot satisfy the allocation from any per node queue then we extend a slab. We now call into the page allocator without specifying GFP_THISNODE. The page allocator will then implement its own fallback (in the given cpuset context), perform necessary reclaim (again considering not a single node but the whole set of allowed nodes) and then return pages for a new slab. We identify from which node the pages were allocated and then insert the pages into the corresponding per node structure. In order to do so we need to modify cache_grow() to take a parameter that specifies the new slab. kmem_getpages() can no longer set the GFP_THISNODE flag since we need to be able to use kmem_getpage to allocate from an arbitrary node. GFP_THISNODE needs to be specified when calling cache_grow(). One key advantage is that the decision from which node to allocate new memory is removed from slab fallback processing. The patch allows to go back to use of the page allocators fallback/reclaim logic.

Increase slab redzone to 64bits There are two problems with the existing redzone implementation. Firstly, it's causing misalignment of structures which contain a 64-bit integer, such as netfilter's 'struct ipt_entry' -- causing netfilter modules to fail to load because of the misalignment. (In particular, the first check in net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_tables.c::check_entry_size_and_hooks()) On ppc32 and sparc32, amongst others, __alignof__(uint64_t) == 8. With slab debugging, we use 32-bit redzones. And allocated slab objects aren't sufficiently aligned to hold a structure containing a uint64_t. By _just_ setting ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to __alignof__(u64) we'd disable redzone checks on those architectures. By using 64-bit redzones we avoid that loss of debugging, and also fix the other problem while we're at it. When investigating this, I noticed that on 64-bit platforms we're using a 32-bit value of RED_ACTIVE/RED_INACTIVE in the 64-bit memory location set aside for the redzone. Which means that the four bytes immediately before or after the allocated object at 0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00 for LE and BE machines, respectively. Which is probably not the most useful choice of poison value. One way to fix both of those at once is just to switch to 64-bit redzones in all cases.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

[PATCH] GFP_THISNODE for the slab allocator This patch insures that the slab node lists in the NUMA case only contain slabs that belong to that specific node. All slab allocations use GFP_THISNODE when calling into the page allocator. If an allocation fails then we fall back in the slab allocator according to the zonelists appropriate for a certain context. This allows a replication of the behavior of alloc_pages and alloc_pages node in the slab layer. Currently allocations requested from the page allocator may be redirected via cpusets to other nodes. This results in remote pages on nodelists and that in turn results in interrupt latency issues during cache draining. Plus the slab is handing out memory as local when it is really remote. Fallback for slab memory allocations will occur within the slab allocator and not in the page allocator. This is necessary in order to be able to use the existing pools of objects on the nodes that we fall back to before adding more pages to a slab. The fallback function insures that the nodes we fall back to obey cpuset restrictions of the current context. We do not allocate objects from outside of the current cpuset context like before. Note that the implementation of locality constraints within the slab allocator requires importing logic from the page allocator. This is a mischmash that is not that great. Other allocators (uncached allocator, vmalloc, huge pages) face similar problems and have similar minimal reimplementations of the basic fallback logic of the page allocator. There is another way of implementing a slab by avoiding per node lists (see modular slab) but this wont work within the existing slab.

numa: slab: use numa_mem_id() for slab local memory node Example usage of generic "numa_mem_id()": The mainline slab code, since ~ 2.6.19, does not handle memoryless nodes well. Specifically, the "fast path"--____cache_alloc()--will never succeed as slab doesn't cache offnode object on the per cpu queues, and for memoryless nodes, all memory will be "off node" relative to numa_node_id(). This adds significant overhead to all kmem cache allocations, incurring a significant regression relative to earlier kernels [from before slab.c was reorganized]. This patch uses the generic topology function "numa_mem_id()" to return the "effective local memory node" for the calling context. This is the first node in the local node's generic fallback zonelist-- the same node that "local" mempolicy-based allocations would use. This lets slab cache these "local" allocations and avoid fallback/refill on every allocation. N.B.: Slab will need to handle node and memory hotplug events that could change the value returned by numa_mem_id() for any given node if recent changes to address memory hotplug don't already address this. E.g., flush all per cpu slab queues before rebuilding the zonelists while the "machine" is held in the stopped state.

cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when changing cpuset's mems Before applying this patch, cpuset updates task->mems_allowed and mempolicy by setting all new bits in the nodemask first, and clearing all old unallowed bits later. But in the way, the allocator may find that there is no node to alloc memory. The reason is that cpuset rebinds the task's mempolicy, it cleans the nodes which the allocater can alloc pages on, for example: (mpol: mempolicy) task1 task1's mpol task2 alloc page 1 alloc on node0? NO 1 1 change mems from 1 to 0 1 rebind task1's mpol 0-1 set new bits 0 clear disallowed bits alloc on node1? NO 0 ... can't alloc page goto oom This patch fixes this problem by expanding the nodes range first(set newly allowed bits) and shrink it lazily(clear newly disallowed bits). So we use a variable to tell the write-side task that read-side task is reading nodemask, and the write-side task clears newly disallowed nodes after read-side task ends the current memory allocation.

cpusets: new round-robin rotor for SLAB allocations We have observed several workloads running on multi-node systems where memory is assigned unevenly across the nodes in the system. There are numerous reasons for this but one is the round-robin rotor in cpuset_mem_spread_node(). For example, a simple test that writes a multi-page file will allocate pages on nodes 0 2 4 6 ... Odd nodes are skipped. (Sometimes it allocates on odd nodes & skips even nodes). An example is shown below. The program "lfile" writes a file consisting of 10 pages. The program then mmaps the file & uses get_mempolicy(..., MPOL_F_NODE) to determine the nodes where the file pages were allocated. The output is shown below: # ./lfile allocated on nodes: 2 4 6 0 1 2 6 0 2 There is a single rotor that is used for allocating both file pages & slab pages. Writing the file allocates both a data page & a slab page (buffer_head). This advances the RR rotor 2 nodes for each page allocated. A quick confirmation seems to confirm this is the cause of the uneven allocation: # echo 0 >/dev/cpuset/memory_spread_slab # ./lfile allocated on nodes: 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 This patch introduces a second rotor that is used for slab allocations.

* Fallback function if there was no memory available and no objects on a
[PATCH] slab: better fallback allocation behavior Currently we simply attempt to allocate from all allowed nodes using GFP_THISNODE. However, GFP_THISNODE does not do reclaim (it wont do any at all if the recent GFP_THISNODE patch is accepted). If we truly run out of memory in the whole system then fallback_alloc may return NULL although memory may still be available if we would perform more thorough reclaim. This patch changes fallback_alloc() so that we first only inspect all the per node queues for available slabs. If we find any then we allocate from those. This avoids slab fragmentation by first getting rid of all partial allocated slabs on every node before allocating new memory. If we cannot satisfy the allocation from any per node queue then we extend a slab. We now call into the page allocator without specifying GFP_THISNODE. The page allocator will then implement its own fallback (in the given cpuset context), perform necessary reclaim (again considering not a single node but the whole set of allowed nodes) and then return pages for a new slab. We identify from which node the pages were allocated and then insert the pages into the corresponding per node structure.

[PATCH] GFP_THISNODE for the slab allocator This patch insures that the slab node lists in the NUMA case only contain slabs that belong to that specific node. All slab allocations use GFP_THISNODE when calling into the page allocator. If an allocation fails then we fall back in the slab allocator according to the zonelists appropriate for a certain context. This allows a replication of the behavior of alloc_pages and alloc_pages node in the slab layer. Currently allocations requested from the page allocator may be redirected via cpusets to other nodes. This results in remote pages on nodelists and that in turn results in interrupt latency issues during cache draining. Plus the slab is handing out memory as local when it is really remote. Fallback for slab memory allocations will occur within the slab allocator and not in the page allocator. This is necessary in order to be able to use the existing pools of objects on the nodes that we fall back to before adding more pages to a slab. The fallback function insures that the nodes we fall back to obey cpuset restrictions of the current context. We do not allocate objects from outside of the current cpuset context like before. Note that the implementation of locality constraints within the slab allocator requires importing logic from the page allocator. This is a mischmash that is not that great.

mm: have zonelist contains structs with both a zone pointer and zone_idx Filtering zonelists requires very frequent use of zone_idx(). This is costly as it involves a lookup of another structure and a substraction operation. As the zone_idx is often required, it should be quickly accessible. The node idx could also be stored here if it was found that accessing zone->node is significant which may be the case on workloads where nodemasks are heavily used. This patch introduces a struct zoneref to store a zone pointer and a zone index. The zonelist then consists of an array of these struct zonerefs which are looked up as necessary. Helpers are given for accessing the zone index as well as the node index.

[PATCH] slab: better fallback allocation behavior Currently we simply attempt to allocate from all allowed nodes using GFP_THISNODE. However, GFP_THISNODE does not do reclaim (it wont do any at all if the recent GFP_THISNODE patch is accepted). If we truly run out of memory in the whole system then fallback_alloc may return NULL although memory may still be available if we would perform more thorough reclaim. This patch changes fallback_alloc() so that we first only inspect all the per node queues for available slabs. If we find any then we allocate from those. This avoids slab fragmentation by first getting rid of all partial allocated slabs on every node before allocating new memory. If we cannot satisfy the allocation from any per node queue then we extend a slab. We now call into the page allocator without specifying GFP_THISNODE. The page allocator will then implement its own fallback (in the given cpuset context), perform necessary reclaim (again considering not a single node but the whole set of allowed nodes) and then return pages for a new slab. We identify from which node the pages were allocated and then insert the pages into the corresponding per node structure. In order to do so we need to modify cache_grow() to take a parameter that specifies the new slab. kmem_getpages() can no longer set the GFP_THISNODE flag since we need to be able to use kmem_getpage to allocate from an arbitrary node.

cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when changing cpuset's mems Before applying this patch, cpuset updates task->mems_allowed and mempolicy by setting all new bits in the nodemask first, and clearing all old unallowed bits later. But in the way, the allocator may find that there is no node to alloc memory. The reason is that cpuset rebinds the task's mempolicy, it cleans the nodes which the allocater can alloc pages on, for example: (mpol: mempolicy) task1 task1's mpol task2 alloc page 1 alloc on node0? NO 1 1 change mems from 1 to 0 1 rebind task1's mpol 0-1 set new bits 0 clear disallowed bits alloc on node1? NO 0 ... can't alloc page goto oom This patch fixes this problem by expanding the nodes range first(set newly allowed bits) and shrink it lazily(clear newly disallowed bits). So we use a variable to tell the write-side task that read-side task is reading nodemask, and the write-side task clears newly disallowed nodes after read-side task ends the current memory allocation.

Categorize GFP flags The function of GFP_LEVEL_MASK seems to be unclear. In order to clear up the mystery we get rid of it and replace GFP_LEVEL_MASK with 3 sets of GFP flags: GFP_RECLAIM_MASK Flags used to control page allocator reclaim behavior. GFP_CONSTRAINT_MASK Flags used to limit where allocations can occur. GFP_SLAB_BUG_MASK Flags that the slab allocator BUG()s on. These replace the uses of GFP_LEVEL mask in the slab allocators and in vmalloc.c. The use of the flags not included in these sets may occur as a result of a slab allocation standing in for a page allocation when constructing scatter gather lists. Extraneous flags are cleared and not passed through to the page allocator. __GFP_MOVABLE/RECLAIMABLE, __GFP_COLD and __GFP_COMP will now be ignored if passed to a slab allocator. Change the allocation of allocator meta data in SLAB and vmalloc to not pass through flags listed in GFP_CONSTRAINT_MASK. SLAB already removes the __GFP_THISNODE flag for such allocations. Generalize that to also cover vmalloc. The use of GFP_CONSTRAINT_MASK also includes __GFP_HARDWALL. The impact of allocator metadata placement on access latency to the cachelines of the object itself is minimal since metadata is only referenced on alloc and free. The attempt is still made to place the meta data optimally but we consistently allow fallback both in SLAB and vmalloc (SLUB does not need to allocate metadata like that). Allocator metadata may serve multiple in kernel users and thus should not be subject to the limitations arising from a single allocation context.

numa: slab: use numa_mem_id() for slab local memory node Example usage of generic "numa_mem_id()": The mainline slab code, since ~ 2.6.19, does not handle memoryless nodes well. Specifically, the "fast path"--____cache_alloc()--will never succeed as slab doesn't cache offnode object on the per cpu queues, and for memoryless nodes, all memory will be "off node" relative to numa_node_id(). This adds significant overhead to all kmem cache allocations, incurring a significant regression relative to earlier kernels [from before slab.c was reorganized]. This patch uses the generic topology function "numa_mem_id()" to return the "effective local memory node" for the calling context. This is the first node in the local node's generic fallback zonelist-- the same node that "local" mempolicy-based allocations would use. This lets slab cache these "local" allocations and avoid fallback/refill on every allocation. N.B.: Slab will need to handle node and memory hotplug events that could change the value returned by numa_mem_id() for any given node if recent changes to address memory hotplug don't already address this. E.g., flush all per cpu slab queues before rebuilding the zonelists while the "machine" is held in the stopped state.

[PATCH] slab: better fallback allocation behavior Currently we simply attempt to allocate from all allowed nodes using GFP_THISNODE. However, GFP_THISNODE does not do reclaim (it wont do any at all if the recent GFP_THISNODE patch is accepted). If we truly run out of memory in the whole system then fallback_alloc may return NULL although memory may still be available if we would perform more thorough reclaim. This patch changes fallback_alloc() so that we first only inspect all the per node queues for available slabs. If we find any then we allocate from those. This avoids slab fragmentation by first getting rid of all partial allocated slabs on every node before allocating new memory. If we cannot satisfy the allocation from any per node queue then we extend a slab. We now call into the page allocator without specifying GFP_THISNODE. The page allocator will then implement its own fallback (in the given cpuset context), perform necessary reclaim (again considering not a single node but the whole set of allowed nodes) and then return pages for a new slab. We identify from which node the pages were allocated and then insert the pages into the corresponding per node structure. In order to do so we need to modify cache_grow() to take a parameter that specifies the new slab. kmem_getpages() can no longer set the GFP_THISNODE flag since we need to be able to use kmem_getpage to allocate from an arbitrary node. GFP_THISNODE needs to be specified when calling cache_grow(). One key advantage is that the decision from which node to allocate new memory is removed from slab fallback processing. The patch allows to go back to use of the page allocators fallback/reclaim logic.

cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when changing cpuset's mems Before applying this patch, cpuset updates task->mems_allowed and mempolicy by setting all new bits in the nodemask first, and clearing all old unallowed bits later. But in the way, the allocator may find that there is no node to alloc memory. The reason is that cpuset rebinds the task's mempolicy, it cleans the nodes which the allocater can alloc pages on, for example: (mpol: mempolicy) task1 task1's mpol task2 alloc page 1 alloc on node0? NO 1 1 change mems from 1 to 0 1 rebind task1's mpol 0-1 set new bits 0 clear disallowed bits alloc on node1? NO 0 ... can't alloc page goto oom This patch fixes this problem by expanding the nodes range first(set newly allowed bits) and shrink it lazily(clear newly disallowed bits). So we use a variable to tell the write-side task that read-side task is reading nodemask, and the write-side task clears newly disallowed nodes after read-side task ends the current memory allocation.

[PATCH] GFP_THISNODE for the slab allocator This patch insures that the slab node lists in the NUMA case only contain slabs that belong to that specific node. All slab allocations use GFP_THISNODE when calling into the page allocator. If an allocation fails then we fall back in the slab allocator according to the zonelists appropriate for a certain context. This allows a replication of the behavior of alloc_pages and alloc_pages node in the slab layer. Currently allocations requested from the page allocator may be redirected via cpusets to other nodes. This results in remote pages on nodelists and that in turn results in interrupt latency issues during cache draining. Plus the slab is handing out memory as local when it is really remote. Fallback for slab memory allocations will occur within the slab allocator and not in the page allocator. This is necessary in order to be able to use the existing pools of objects on the nodes that we fall back to before adding more pages to a slab. The fallback function insures that the nodes we fall back to obey cpuset restrictions of the current context. We do not allocate objects from outside of the current cpuset context like before. Note that the implementation of locality constraints within the slab allocator requires importing logic from the page allocator. This is a mischmash that is not that great. Other allocators (uncached allocator, vmalloc, huge pages) face similar problems and have similar minimal reimplementations of the basic fallback logic of the page allocator. There is another way of implementing a slab by avoiding per node lists (see modular slab) but this wont work within the existing slab.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

[PATCH] slab: better fallback allocation behavior Currently we simply attempt to allocate from all allowed nodes using GFP_THISNODE. However, GFP_THISNODE does not do reclaim (it wont do any at all if the recent GFP_THISNODE patch is accepted). If we truly run out of memory in the whole system then fallback_alloc may return NULL although memory may still be available if we would perform more thorough reclaim. This patch changes fallback_alloc() so that we first only inspect all the per node queues for available slabs. If we find any then we allocate from those. This avoids slab fragmentation by first getting rid of all partial allocated slabs on every node before allocating new memory. If we cannot satisfy the allocation from any per node queue then we extend a slab. We now call into the page allocator without specifying GFP_THISNODE. The page allocator will then implement its own fallback (in the given cpuset context), perform necessary reclaim (again considering not a single node but the whole set of allowed nodes) and then return pages for a new slab. We identify from which node the pages were allocated and then insert the pages into the corresponding per node structure. In order to do so we need to modify cache_grow() to take a parameter that specifies the new slab. kmem_getpages() can no longer set the GFP_THISNODE flag since we need to be able to use kmem_getpage to allocate from an arbitrary node. GFP_THISNODE needs to be specified when calling cache_grow(). One key advantage is that the decision from which node to allocate new memory is removed from slab fallback processing. The patch allows to go back to use of the page allocators fallback/reclaim logic.

[PATCH] GFP_THISNODE for the slab allocator This patch insures that the slab node lists in the NUMA case only contain slabs that belong to that specific node. All slab allocations use GFP_THISNODE when calling into the page allocator. If an allocation fails then we fall back in the slab allocator according to the zonelists appropriate for a certain context. This allows a replication of the behavior of alloc_pages and alloc_pages node in the slab layer. Currently allocations requested from the page allocator may be redirected via cpusets to other nodes. This results in remote pages on nodelists and that in turn results in interrupt latency issues during cache draining. Plus the slab is handing out memory as local when it is really remote. Fallback for slab memory allocations will occur within the slab allocator and not in the page allocator. This is necessary in order to be able to use the existing pools of objects on the nodes that we fall back to before adding more pages to a slab. The fallback function insures that the nodes we fall back to obey cpuset restrictions of the current context. We do not allocate objects from outside of the current cpuset context like before. Note that the implementation of locality constraints within the slab allocator requires importing logic from the page allocator. This is a mischmash that is not that great. Other allocators (uncached allocator, vmalloc, huge pages) face similar problems and have similar minimal reimplementations of the basic fallback logic of the page allocator. There is another way of implementing a slab by avoiding per node lists (see modular slab) but this wont work within the existing slab.

numa: slab: use numa_mem_id() for slab local memory node Example usage of generic "numa_mem_id()": The mainline slab code, since ~ 2.6.19, does not handle memoryless nodes well. Specifically, the "fast path"--____cache_alloc()--will never succeed as slab doesn't cache offnode object on the per cpu queues, and for memoryless nodes, all memory will be "off node" relative to numa_node_id(). This adds significant overhead to all kmem cache allocations, incurring a significant regression relative to earlier kernels [from before slab.c was reorganized]. This patch uses the generic topology function "numa_mem_id()" to return the "effective local memory node" for the calling context. This is the first node in the local node's generic fallback zonelist-- the same node that "local" mempolicy-based allocations would use. This lets slab cache these "local" allocations and avoid fallback/refill on every allocation. N.B.: Slab will need to handle node and memory hotplug events that could change the value returned by numa_mem_id() for any given node if recent changes to address memory hotplug don't already address this. E.g., flush all per cpu slab queues before rebuilding the zonelists while the "machine" is held in the stopped state.

lockdep: annotate reclaim context (__GFP_NOFS) Here is another version, with the incremental patch rolled up, and added reclaim context annotation to kswapd, and allocation tracing to slab allocators (which may only ever reach the page allocator in rare cases, so it is good to put annotations here too). Haven't tested this version as such, but it should be getting closer to merge worthy ;) -- After noticing some code in mm/filemap.c accidentally perform a __GFP_FS allocation when it should not have been, I thought it might be a good idea to try to catch this kind of thing with lockdep. I coded up a little idea that seems to work. Unfortunately the system has to actually be in __GFP_FS page reclaim, then take the lock, before it will mark it. But at least that might still be some orders of magnitude more common (and more debuggable) than an actual deadlock condition, so we have some improvement I hope (the concept is no less complete than discovery of a lock's interrupt contexts). I guess we could even do the same thing with __GFP_IO (normal reclaim), and even GFP_NOIO locks too... but filesystems will have the most locks and fiddly code paths, so let's start there and see how it goes. It *seems* to work.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

numa: slab: use numa_mem_id() for slab local memory node Example usage of generic "numa_mem_id()": The mainline slab code, since ~ 2.6.19, does not handle memoryless nodes well. Specifically, the "fast path"--____cache_alloc()--will never succeed as slab doesn't cache offnode object on the per cpu queues, and for memoryless nodes, all memory will be "off node" relative to numa_node_id(). This adds significant overhead to all kmem cache allocations, incurring a significant regression relative to earlier kernels [from before slab.c was reorganized]. This patch uses the generic topology function "numa_mem_id()" to return the "effective local memory node" for the calling context. This is the first node in the local node's generic fallback zonelist-- the same node that "local" mempolicy-based allocations would use. This lets slab cache these "local" allocations and avoid fallback/refill on every allocation. N.B.: Slab will need to handle node and memory hotplug events that could change the value returned by numa_mem_id() for any given node if recent changes to address memory hotplug don't already address this. E.g., flush all per cpu slab queues before rebuilding the zonelists while the "machine" is held in the stopped state.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

infrastructure to debug (dynamic) objects We can see an ever repeating problem pattern with objects of any kind in the kernel: 1) freeing of active objects 2) reinitialization of active objects Both problems can be hard to debug because the crash happens at a point where we have no chance to decode the root cause anymore. One problem spot are kernel timers, where the detection of the problem often happens in interrupt context and usually causes the machine to panic. While working on a timer related bug report I had to hack specialized code into the timer subsystem to get a reasonable hint for the root cause. This debug hack was fine for temporary use, but far from a mergeable solution due to the intrusiveness into the timer code. The code further lacked the ability to detect and report the root cause instantly and keep the system operational. Keeping the system operational is important to get hold of the debug information without special debugging aids like serial consoles and special knowledge of the bug reporter. The problems described above are not restricted to timers, but timers tend to expose it usually in a full system crash. Other objects are less explosive, but the symptoms caused by such mistakes can be even harder to debug. Instead of creating specialized debugging code for the timer subsystem a generic infrastructure is created which allows developers to verify their code and provides an easy to enable debug facility for users in case of trouble. The debugobjects core code keeps track of operations on static and dynamic objects by inserting them into a hashed list and sanity checking them on object operations and provides additional checks whenever kernel memory is freed. The tracked object operations are: - initializing an object - adding an object to a subsystem list - deleting an object from a subsystem list Each operation is sanity checked before the operation is executed and the subsystem specific code can provide a fixup function which allows to prevent the damage of the operation. When the sanity check triggers a warning message and a stack trace is printed. The list of operations can be extended if the need arises. For now it's limited to the requirements of the first user (timers). The core code enqueues the objects into hash buckets. The hash index is generated from the address of the object to simplify the lookup for the check on kfree/vfree. Each bucket has it's own spinlock to avoid contention on a global lock. The debug code can be compiled in without being active. The runtime overhead is minimal and could be optimized by asm alternatives. A kernel command line option enables the debugging code.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

slab: setup allocators earlier in the boot sequence This patch makes kmalloc() available earlier in the boot sequence so we can get rid of some bootmem allocations. The bulk of the changes are due to kmem_cache_init() being called with interrupts disabled which requires some changes to allocator boostrap code. Note: 32-bit x86 does WP protect test in mem_init() so we must setup traps before we call mem_init() during boot as reported by Ingo Molnar: We have a hard crash in the WP-protect code: [ 0.000000] Checking if this processor honours the WP bit even in supervisor mode...BUG: Int 14: CR2 ffcff000 [ 0.000000] EDI 00000188 ESI 00000ac7 EBP c17eaf9c ESP c17eaf8c [ 0.000000] EBX 000014e0 EDX 0000000e ECX 01856067 EAX 00000001 [ 0.000000] err 00000003 EIP c10135b1 CS 00000060 flg 00010002 [ 0.000000] Stack: c17eafa8 c17fd410 c16747bc c17eafc4 c17fd7e5 000011fd f8616000 c18237cc [ 0.000000] 00099800 c17bb000 c17eafec c17f1668 000001c5 c17f1322 c166e039 c1822bf0 [ 0.000000] c166e033 c153a014 c18237cc 00020800 c17eaff8 c17f106a 00020800 01ba5003 [ 0.000000] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.30-tip-02161-g7a74539-dirty #52203 [ 0.000000] Call Trace: [ 0.000000] [<c15357c2>] ? printk+0x14/0x16 [ 0.000000] [<c10135b1>] ? do_test_wp_bit+0x19/0x23 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd410>] ? test_wp_bit+0x26/0x64 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd7e5>] ? mem_init+0x1ba/0x1d8 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1668>] ? start_kernel+0x164/0x2f7 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1322>] ? unknown_bootoption+0x0/0x19c [ 0.000000] [<c17f106a>] ? __init_begin+0x6a/0x6f Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

slab: setup allocators earlier in the boot sequence This patch makes kmalloc() available earlier in the boot sequence so we can get rid of some bootmem allocations. The bulk of the changes are due to kmem_cache_init() being called with interrupts disabled which requires some changes to allocator boostrap code. Note: 32-bit x86 does WP protect test in mem_init() so we must setup traps before we call mem_init() during boot as reported by Ingo Molnar: We have a hard crash in the WP-protect code: [ 0.000000] Checking if this processor honours the WP bit even in supervisor mode...BUG: Int 14: CR2 ffcff000 [ 0.000000] EDI 00000188 ESI 00000ac7 EBP c17eaf9c ESP c17eaf8c [ 0.000000] EBX 000014e0 EDX 0000000e ECX 01856067 EAX 00000001 [ 0.000000] err 00000003 EIP c10135b1 CS 00000060 flg 00010002 [ 0.000000] Stack: c17eafa8 c17fd410 c16747bc c17eafc4 c17fd7e5 000011fd f8616000 c18237cc [ 0.000000] 00099800 c17bb000 c17eafec c17f1668 000001c5 c17f1322 c166e039 c1822bf0 [ 0.000000] c166e033 c153a014 c18237cc 00020800 c17eaff8 c17f106a 00020800 01ba5003 [ 0.000000] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.30-tip-02161-g7a74539-dirty #52203 [ 0.000000] Call Trace: [ 0.000000] [<c15357c2>] ? printk+0x14/0x16 [ 0.000000] [<c10135b1>] ? do_test_wp_bit+0x19/0x23 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd410>] ? test_wp_bit+0x26/0x64 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd7e5>] ? mem_init+0x1ba/0x1d8 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1668>] ? start_kernel+0x164/0x2f7 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1322>] ? unknown_bootoption+0x0/0x19c [ 0.000000] [<c17f106a>] ? __init_begin+0x6a/0x6f Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>

This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

slab: setup allocators earlier in the boot sequence This patch makes kmalloc() available earlier in the boot sequence so we can get rid of some bootmem allocations. The bulk of the changes are due to kmem_cache_init() being called with interrupts disabled which requires some changes to allocator boostrap code. Note: 32-bit x86 does WP protect test in mem_init() so we must setup traps before we call mem_init() during boot as reported by Ingo Molnar: We have a hard crash in the WP-protect code: [ 0.000000] Checking if this processor honours the WP bit even in supervisor mode...BUG: Int 14: CR2 ffcff000 [ 0.000000] EDI 00000188 ESI 00000ac7 EBP c17eaf9c ESP c17eaf8c [ 0.000000] EBX 000014e0 EDX 0000000e ECX 01856067 EAX 00000001 [ 0.000000] err 00000003 EIP c10135b1 CS 00000060 flg 00010002 [ 0.000000] Stack: c17eafa8 c17fd410 c16747bc c17eafc4 c17fd7e5 000011fd f8616000 c18237cc [ 0.000000] 00099800 c17bb000 c17eafec c17f1668 000001c5 c17f1322 c166e039 c1822bf0 [ 0.000000] c166e033 c153a014 c18237cc 00020800 c17eaff8 c17f106a 00020800 01ba5003 [ 0.000000] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.30-tip-02161-g7a74539-dirty #52203 [ 0.000000] Call Trace: [ 0.000000] [<c15357c2>] ? printk+0x14/0x16 [ 0.000000] [<c10135b1>] ? do_test_wp_bit+0x19/0x23 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd410>] ? test_wp_bit+0x26/0x64 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd7e5>] ? mem_init+0x1ba/0x1d8 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1668>] ? start_kernel+0x164/0x2f7 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1322>] ? unknown_bootoption+0x0/0x19c [ 0.000000] [<c17f106a>] ? __init_begin+0x6a/0x6f Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>

numa: slab: use numa_mem_id() for slab local memory node Example usage of generic "numa_mem_id()": The mainline slab code, since ~ 2.6.19, does not handle memoryless nodes well. Specifically, the "fast path"--____cache_alloc()--will never succeed as slab doesn't cache offnode object on the per cpu queues, and for memoryless nodes, all memory will be "off node" relative to numa_node_id(). This adds significant overhead to all kmem cache allocations, incurring a significant regression relative to earlier kernels [from before slab.c was reorganized]. This patch uses the generic topology function "numa_mem_id()" to return the "effective local memory node" for the calling context. This is the first node in the local node's generic fallback zonelist-- the same node that "local" mempolicy-based allocations would use. This lets slab cache these "local" allocations and avoid fallback/refill on every allocation. N.B.: Slab will need to handle node and memory hotplug events that could change the value returned by numa_mem_id() for any given node if recent changes to address memory hotplug don't already address this. E.g., flush all per cpu slab queues before rebuilding the zonelists while the "machine" is held in the stopped state.

The cache lines of the single node are distributed/interleaved over the memory of the real physical nodes, but the zone lock, list heads, ... of the single node with memory still each live in a single cache line that is accessed from all processors. x86_64 [8x6 AMD] [avg of 40]: 2.883 2.845 Signed-off-by: Lee Schermerhorn <lee.schermerhorn@hp.com> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Eric Whitney <eric.whitney@hp.com> Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: "H.

slab: setup allocators earlier in the boot sequence This patch makes kmalloc() available earlier in the boot sequence so we can get rid of some bootmem allocations. The bulk of the changes are due to kmem_cache_init() being called with interrupts disabled which requires some changes to allocator boostrap code. Note: 32-bit x86 does WP protect test in mem_init() so we must setup traps before we call mem_init() during boot as reported by Ingo Molnar: We have a hard crash in the WP-protect code: [ 0.000000] Checking if this processor honours the WP bit even in supervisor mode...BUG: Int 14: CR2 ffcff000 [ 0.000000] EDI 00000188 ESI 00000ac7 EBP c17eaf9c ESP c17eaf8c [ 0.000000] EBX 000014e0 EDX 0000000e ECX 01856067 EAX 00000001 [ 0.000000] err 00000003 EIP c10135b1 CS 00000060 flg 00010002 [ 0.000000] Stack: c17eafa8 c17fd410 c16747bc c17eafc4 c17fd7e5 000011fd f8616000 c18237cc [ 0.000000] 00099800 c17bb000 c17eafec c17f1668 000001c5 c17f1322 c166e039 c1822bf0 [ 0.000000] c166e033 c153a014 c18237cc 00020800 c17eaff8 c17f106a 00020800 01ba5003 [ 0.000000] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.30-tip-02161-g7a74539-dirty #52203 [ 0.000000] Call Trace: [ 0.000000] [<c15357c2>] ? printk+0x14/0x16 [ 0.000000] [<c10135b1>] ? do_test_wp_bit+0x19/0x23 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd410>] ? test_wp_bit+0x26/0x64 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd7e5>] ? mem_init+0x1ba/0x1d8 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1668>] ? start_kernel+0x164/0x2f7 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1322>] ? unknown_bootoption+0x0/0x19c [ 0.000000] [<c17f106a>] ? __init_begin+0x6a/0x6f Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

numa: slab: use numa_mem_id() for slab local memory node Example usage of generic "numa_mem_id()": The mainline slab code, since ~ 2.6.19, does not handle memoryless nodes well. Specifically, the "fast path"--____cache_alloc()--will never succeed as slab doesn't cache offnode object on the per cpu queues, and for memoryless nodes, all memory will be "off node" relative to numa_node_id(). This adds significant overhead to all kmem cache allocations, incurring a significant regression relative to earlier kernels [from before slab.c was reorganized]. This patch uses the generic topology function "numa_mem_id()" to return the "effective local memory node" for the calling context. This is the first node in the local node's generic fallback zonelist-- the same node that "local" mempolicy-based allocations would use. This lets slab cache these "local" allocations and avoid fallback/refill on every allocation. N.B.: Slab will need to handle node and memory hotplug events that could change the value returned by numa_mem_id() for any given node if recent changes to address memory hotplug don't already address this. E.g., flush all per cpu slab queues before rebuilding the zonelists while the "machine" is held in the stopped state.

Note: 32-bit x86 does WP protect test in mem_init() so we must setup traps before we call mem_init() during boot as reported by Ingo Molnar: We have a hard crash in the WP-protect code: [ 0.000000] Checking if this processor honours the WP bit even in supervisor mode...BUG: Int 14: CR2 ffcff000 [ 0.000000] EDI 00000188 ESI 00000ac7 EBP c17eaf9c ESP c17eaf8c [ 0.000000] EBX 000014e0 EDX 0000000e ECX 01856067 EAX 00000001 [ 0.000000] err 00000003 EIP c10135b1 CS 00000060 flg 00010002 [ 0.000000] Stack: c17eafa8 c17fd410 c16747bc c17eafc4 c17fd7e5 000011fd f8616000 c18237cc [ 0.000000] 00099800 c17bb000 c17eafec c17f1668 000001c5 c17f1322 c166e039 c1822bf0 [ 0.000000] c166e033 c153a014 c18237cc 00020800 c17eaff8 c17f106a 00020800 01ba5003 [ 0.000000] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.30-tip-02161-g7a74539-dirty #52203 [ 0.000000] Call Trace: [ 0.000000] [<c15357c2>] ? printk+0x14/0x16 [ 0.000000] [<c10135b1>] ? do_test_wp_bit+0x19/0x23 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd410>] ? test_wp_bit+0x26/0x64 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd7e5>] ? mem_init+0x1ba/0x1d8 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1668>] ? start_kernel+0x164/0x2f7 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1322>] ? unknown_bootoption+0x0/0x19c [ 0.000000] [<c17f106a>] ? __init_begin+0x6a/0x6f Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

numa: slab: use numa_mem_id() for slab local memory node Example usage of generic "numa_mem_id()": The mainline slab code, since ~ 2.6.19, does not handle memoryless nodes well. Specifically, the "fast path"--____cache_alloc()--will never succeed as slab doesn't cache offnode object on the per cpu queues, and for memoryless nodes, all memory will be "off node" relative to numa_node_id(). This adds significant overhead to all kmem cache allocations, incurring a significant regression relative to earlier kernels [from before slab.c was reorganized]. This patch uses the generic topology function "numa_mem_id()" to return the "effective local memory node" for the calling context. This is the first node in the local node's generic fallback zonelist-- the same node that "local" mempolicy-based allocations would use. This lets slab cache these "local" allocations and avoid fallback/refill on every allocation. N.B.: Slab will need to handle node and memory hotplug events that could change the value returned by numa_mem_id() for any given node if recent changes to address memory hotplug don't already address this. E.g., flush all per cpu slab queues before rebuilding the zonelists while the "machine" is held in the stopped state.

[PATCH] slab: Node rotor for freeing alien caches and remote per cpu pages. The cache reaper currently tries to free all alien caches and all remote per cpu pages in each pass of cache_reap. For a machines with large number of nodes (such as Altix) this may lead to sporadic delays of around ~10ms. Interrupts are disabled while reclaiming creating unacceptable delays. This patch changes that behavior by adding a per cpu reap_node variable. Instead of attempting to free all caches, we free only one alien cache and the per cpu pages from one remote node. That reduces the time spend in cache_reap. However, doing so will lengthen the time it takes to completely drain all remote per cpu pagesets and all alien caches. The time needed will grow with the number of nodes in the system. All caches are drained when they overflow their respective capacity. So the drawback here is only that a bit of memory may be wasted for awhile longer. Details: 1. Rename drain_remote_pages to drain_node_pages to allow the specification of the node to drain of pcp pages. 2. Add additional functions init_reap_node, next_reap_node for NUMA that manage a per cpu reap_node counter. 3. Add a reap_alien function that reaps only from the current reap_node. For us this seems to be a critical issue. Holdoffs of an average of ~7ms cause some HPC benchmarks to slow down significantly. F.e. NAS parallel slows down dramatically. NAS parallel has a 12-16 seconds runtime w/o rotor compared to 5.8 secs with the rotor patches. It gets down to 5.05 secs with the additional interrupt holdoff reductions.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

[PATCH] slab: Node rotor for freeing alien caches and remote per cpu pages. The cache reaper currently tries to free all alien caches and all remote per cpu pages in each pass of cache_reap. For a machines with large number of nodes (such as Altix) this may lead to sporadic delays of around ~10ms. Interrupts are disabled while reclaiming creating unacceptable delays. This patch changes that behavior by adding a per cpu reap_node variable. Instead of attempting to free all caches, we free only one alien cache and the per cpu pages from one remote node. That reduces the time spend in cache_reap. However, doing so will lengthen the time it takes to completely drain all remote per cpu pagesets and all alien caches. The time needed will grow with the number of nodes in the system. All caches are drained when they overflow their respective capacity. So the drawback here is only that a bit of memory may be wasted for awhile longer. Details: 1. Rename drain_remote_pages to drain_node_pages to allow the specification of the node to drain of pcp pages. 2. Add additional functions init_reap_node, next_reap_node for NUMA that manage a per cpu reap_node counter. 3. Add a reap_alien function that reaps only from the current reap_node. For us this seems to be a critical issue. Holdoffs of an average of ~7ms cause some HPC benchmarks to slow down significantly. F.e. NAS parallel slows down dramatically. NAS parallel has a 12-16 seconds runtime w/o rotor compared to 5.8 secs with the rotor patches. It gets down to 5.05 secs with the additional interrupt holdoff reductions.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

[PATCH] NUMA slab locking fixes: fix cpu down and up locking This fixes locking and bugs in cpu_down and cpu_up paths of the NUMA slab allocator. Sonny Rao <sonny@burdell.org> reported problems sometime back on POWER5 boxes, when the last cpu on the nodes were being offlined. We could not reproduce the same on x86_64 because the cpumask (node_to_cpumask) was not being updated on cpu down. Since that issue is now fixed, we can reproduce Sonny's problems on x86_64 NUMA, and here is the fix. The problem earlier was on CPU_DOWN, if it was the last cpu on the node to go down, the array_caches (shared, alien) and the kmem_list3 of the node were being freed (kfree) with the kmem_list3 lock held. If the l3 or the array_caches were to come from the same cache being cleared, we hit on badness. This patch cleans up the locking in cpu_up and cpu_down path. We cannot really free l3 on cpu down because, there is no node offlining yet and even though a cpu is not yet up, node local memory can be allocated for it. So l3s are usually allocated at keme_cache_create and destroyed at kmem_cache_destroy. Hence, we don't need cachep->spinlock protection to get to the cachep->nodelist[nodeid] either. Patch survived onlining and offlining on a 4 core 2 node Tyan box with a 4 dbench process running all the time.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

[PATCH] Numa-aware slab allocator V5 The NUMA API change that introduced kmalloc_node was accepted for 2.6.12-rc3. Now it is possible to do slab allocations on a node to localize memory structures. This API was used by the pageset localization patch and the block layer localization patch now in mm. The existing kmalloc_node is slow since it simply searches through all pages of the slab to find a page that is on the node requested. The two patches do a one time allocation of slab structures at initialization and therefore the speed of kmalloc node does not matter. This patch allows kmalloc_node to be as fast as kmalloc by introducing node specific page lists for partial, free and full slabs. Slab allocation improves in a NUMA system so that we are seeing a performance gain in AIM7 of about 5% with this patch alone. More NUMA localizations are possible if kmalloc_node operates in an fast way like kmalloc.

slab: setup allocators earlier in the boot sequence This patch makes kmalloc() available earlier in the boot sequence so we can get rid of some bootmem allocations. The bulk of the changes are due to kmem_cache_init() being called with interrupts disabled which requires some changes to allocator boostrap code. Note: 32-bit x86 does WP protect test in mem_init() so we must setup traps before we call mem_init() during boot as reported by Ingo Molnar: We have a hard crash in the WP-protect code: [ 0.000000] Checking if this processor honours the WP bit even in supervisor mode...BUG: Int 14: CR2 ffcff000 [ 0.000000] EDI 00000188 ESI 00000ac7 EBP c17eaf9c ESP c17eaf8c [ 0.000000] EBX 000014e0 EDX 0000000e ECX 01856067 EAX 00000001 [ 0.000000] err 00000003 EIP c10135b1 CS 00000060 flg 00010002 [ 0.000000] Stack: c17eafa8 c17fd410 c16747bc c17eafc4 c17fd7e5 000011fd f8616000 c18237cc [ 0.000000] 00099800 c17bb000 c17eafec c17f1668 000001c5 c17f1322 c166e039 c1822bf0 [ 0.000000] c166e033 c153a014 c18237cc 00020800 c17eaff8 c17f106a 00020800 01ba5003 [ 0.000000] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.30-tip-02161-g7a74539-dirty #52203 [ 0.000000] Call Trace: [ 0.000000] [<c15357c2>] ? printk+0x14/0x16 [ 0.000000] [<c10135b1>] ? do_test_wp_bit+0x19/0x23 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd410>] ? test_wp_bit+0x26/0x64 [ 0.000000] [<c17fd7e5>] ? mem_init+0x1ba/0x1d8 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1668>] ? start_kernel+0x164/0x2f7 [ 0.000000] [<c17f1322>] ? unknown_bootoption+0x0/0x19c [ 0.000000] [<c17f106a>] ? __init_begin+0x6a/0x6f Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Cc: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi>

mm: restrict access to slab files under procfs and sysfs Historically /proc/slabinfo and files under /sys/kernel/slab/* have world read permissions and are accessible to the world. slabinfo contains rather private information related both to the kernel and userspace tasks. Depending on the situation, it might reveal either private information per se or information useful to make another targeted attack. Some examples of what can be learned by reading/watching for /proc/slabinfo entries: 1) dentry (and different *inode*) number might reveal other processes fs activity. The number of dentry "active objects" doesn't strictly show file count opened/touched by a process, however, there is a good correlation between them. The patch "proc: force dcache drop on unauthorized access" relies on the privacy of dentry count. 2) different inode entries might reveal the same information as (1), but these are more fine granted counters. If a filesystem is mounted in a private mount point (or even a private namespace) and fs type differs from other mounted fs types, fs activity in this mount point/namespace is revealed. If there is a single ecryptfs mount point, the whole fs activity of a single user is revealed. Number of files in ecryptfs mount point is a private information per se. 3) fuse_* reveals number of files / fs activity of a user in a user private mount point. It is approx. the same severity as ecryptfs infoleak in (2). 4) sysfs_dir_cache similar to (2) reveals devices' addition/removal, which can be otherwise hidden by "chmod 0700 /sys/". With 0444 slabinfo the precise number of sysfs files is known to the world. 5) buffer_head might reveal some kernel activity. With other information leaks an attacker might identify what specific kernel routines generate buffer_head activity. 6) *kmalloc* infoleaks are very situational. Attacker should watch for the specific kmalloc size entry and filter the noise related to the unrelated kernel activity. If an attacker has relatively silent victim system, he might get rather precise counters. Additional information sources might significantly increase the slabinfo infoleak benefits. E.g. if an attacker knows that the processes activity on the system is very low (only core daemons like syslog and cron), he may run setxid binaries / trigger local daemon activity / trigger network services activity / await sporadic cron jobs activity / etc. and get rather precise counters for fs and network activity of these privileged tasks, which is unknown otherwise. Also hiding slabinfo and /sys/kernel/slab/* is a one step to complicate exploitation of kernel heap overflows (and possibly, other bugs). The related discussion: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1108378 To keep compatibility with old permission model where non-root monitoring daemon could watch for kernel memleaks though slabinfo one should do: groupadd slabinfo usermod -a -G slabinfo $MONITOR_USER And add the following commands to init scripts (to mountall.conf in Ubuntu's upstart case): chmod g+r /proc/slabinfo /sys/kernel/slab/*/* chgrp slabinfo /proc/slabinfo /sys/kernel/slab/*/* Signed-off-by: Vasiliy Kulikov <segoon@openwall.com> Reviewed-by: Kees Cook <kees@ubuntu.com> Reviewed-by: Dave Hansen <dave@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Acked-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@gentwo.org> Acked-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> CC: Valdis.Kletnieks@vt.edu CC: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> CC: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org>
