mlock: mlocked pages are unevictable Make sure that mlocked pages also live on the unevictable LRU, so kswapd will not scan them over and over again. This is achieved through various strategies: 1) add yet another page flag--PG_mlocked--to indicate that the page is locked for efficient testing in vmscan and, optionally, fault path. This allows early culling of unevictable pages, preventing them from getting to page_referenced()/try_to_unmap(). Also allows separate accounting of mlock'd pages, as Nick's original patch did. Note: Nick's original mlock patch used a PG_mlocked flag. I had removed this in favor of the PG_unevictable flag + an mlock_count [new page struct member]. I restored the PG_mlocked flag to eliminate the new count field. 2) add the mlock/unevictable infrastructure to mm/mlock.c, with internal APIs in mm/internal.h. This is a rework of Nick's original patch to these files, taking into account that mlocked pages are now kept on unevictable LRU list. 3) update vmscan.c:page_evictable() to check PageMlocked() and, if vma passed in, the vm_flags. Note that the vma will only be passed in for new pages in the fault path; and then only if the "cull unevictable pages in fault path" patch is included. 4) add try_to_unlock() to rmap.c to walk a page's rmap and ClearPageMlocked() if no other vmas have it mlocked. Reuses as much of try_to_unmap() as possible. This effectively replaces the use of one of the lru list links as an mlock count. If this mechanism let's pages in mlocked vmas leak through w/o PG_mlocked set [I don't know that it does], we should catch them later in try_to_unmap(). One hopes this will be rare, as it will be relatively expensive.

mm: use clear_page_mlock() in page_remove_rmap() We had thought that pages could no longer get freed while still marked as mlocked; but Johannes Weiner posted this program to demonstrate that truncating an mlocked private file mapping containing COWed pages is still mishandled: #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> int main(void) { char *map; int fd; system("grep mlockfreed /proc/vmstat"); fd = open("chigurh", O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_RDWR); unlink("chigurh"); ftruncate(fd, 4096); map = mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE, fd, 0); map[0] = 11; mlock(map, sizeof(fd)); ftruncate(fd, 0); close(fd); munlock(map, sizeof(fd)); munmap(map, 4096); system("grep mlockfreed /proc/vmstat"); return 0; } The anon COWed pages are not caught by truncation's clear_page_mlock() of the pagecache pages; but unmap_mapping_range() unmaps them, so we ought to look out for them there in page_remove_rmap(). Indeed, why should truncation or invalidation be doing the clear_page_mlock() when removing from pagecache? mlock is a property of mapping in userspace, not a property of pagecache: an mlocked unmapped page is nonsensical.

Actually, lru_add_drain_all() exist to prevent the unevictalble pages stay on reclaimable lru list. but currenct unevictable code can rescue unevictable pages although it stay on reclaimable list. So removing is better. In addition, this patch add lru_add_drain_all() to sys_mlock() and sys_mlockall(). it isn't must. but it reduce the failure of moving to unevictable list. its failure can rescue in vmscan later. but reducing is better.

mm: remove lru_add_drain_all() from the munlock path lockdep warns about following message at boot time on one of my test machine. Then, schedule_on_each_cpu() sholdn't be called when the task have mmap_sem. Actually, lru_add_drain_all() exist to prevent the unevictalble pages stay on reclaimable lru list. but currenct unevictable code can rescue unevictable pages although it stay on reclaimable list. So removing is better. In addition, this patch add lru_add_drain_all() to sys_mlock() and sys_mlockall(). it isn't must. but it reduce the failure of moving to unevictable list. its failure can rescue in vmscan later. but reducing is better. Note, if above rescuing happend, the Mlocked and the Unevictable field mismatching happend in /proc/meminfo. but it doesn't cause any real trouble.

mm: mlocking in try_to_unmap_one There's contorted mlock/munlock handling in try_to_unmap_anon() and try_to_unmap_file(), which we'd prefer not to repeat for KSM swapping. Simplify it by moving it all down into try_to_unmap_one(). One thing is then lost, try_to_munlock()'s distinction between when no vma holds the page mlocked, and when a vma does mlock it, but we could not get mmap_sem to set the page flag. But its only caller takes no interest in that distinction (and is better testing SWAP_MLOCK anyway), so let's keep the code simple and return SWAP_AGAIN for both cases. try_to_unmap_file()'s TTU_MUNLOCK nonlinear handling was particularly amusing: once unravelled, it turns out to have been choosing between two different ways of doing the same nothing. Ah, no, one way was actually returning SWAP_FAIL when it meant to return SWAP_SUCCESS.

mlock: mlocked pages are unevictable Make sure that mlocked pages also live on the unevictable LRU, so kswapd will not scan them over and over again. This is achieved through various strategies: 1) add yet another page flag--PG_mlocked--to indicate that the page is locked for efficient testing in vmscan and, optionally, fault path. This allows early culling of unevictable pages, preventing them from getting to page_referenced()/try_to_unmap(). Also allows separate accounting of mlock'd pages, as Nick's original patch did. Note: Nick's original mlock patch used a PG_mlocked flag. I had removed this in favor of the PG_unevictable flag + an mlock_count [new page struct member]. I restored the PG_mlocked flag to eliminate the new count field. 2) add the mlock/unevictable infrastructure to mm/mlock.c, with internal APIs in mm/internal.h. This is a rework of Nick's original patch to these files, taking into account that mlocked pages are now kept on unevictable LRU list. 3) update vmscan.c:page_evictable() to check PageMlocked() and, if vma passed in, the vm_flags. Note that the vma will only be passed in for new pages in the fault path; and then only if the "cull unevictable pages in fault path" patch is included. 4) add try_to_unlock() to rmap.c to walk a page's rmap and ClearPageMlocked() if no other vmas have it mlocked. Reuses as much of try_to_unmap() as possible. This effectively replaces the use of one of the lru list links as an mlock count. If this mechanism let's pages in mlocked vmas leak through w/o PG_mlocked set [I don't know that it does], we should catch them later in try_to_unmap().

mm: use clear_page_mlock() in page_remove_rmap() We had thought that pages could no longer get freed while still marked as mlocked; but Johannes Weiner posted this program to demonstrate that truncating an mlocked private file mapping containing COWed pages is still mishandled: #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> int main(void) { char *map; int fd; system("grep mlockfreed /proc/vmstat"); fd = open("chigurh", O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_RDWR); unlink("chigurh"); ftruncate(fd, 4096); map = mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE, fd, 0); map[0] = 11; mlock(map, sizeof(fd)); ftruncate(fd, 0); close(fd); munlock(map, sizeof(fd)); munmap(map, 4096); system("grep mlockfreed /proc/vmstat"); return 0; } The anon COWed pages are not caught by truncation's clear_page_mlock() of the pagecache pages; but unmap_mapping_range() unmaps them, so we ought to look out for them there in page_remove_rmap(). Indeed, why should truncation or invalidation be doing the clear_page_mlock() when removing from pagecache? mlock is a property of mapping in userspace, not a property of pagecache: an mlocked unmapped page is nonsensical.

mlock: mlocked pages are unevictable Make sure that mlocked pages also live on the unevictable LRU, so kswapd will not scan them over and over again. This is achieved through various strategies: 1) add yet another page flag--PG_mlocked--to indicate that the page is locked for efficient testing in vmscan and, optionally, fault path. This allows early culling of unevictable pages, preventing them from getting to page_referenced()/try_to_unmap(). Also allows separate accounting of mlock'd pages, as Nick's original patch did.

mlock: only hold mmap_sem in shared mode when faulting in pages Currently mlock() holds mmap_sem in exclusive mode while the pages get faulted in. In the case of a large mlock, this can potentially take a very long time, during which various commands such as 'ps auxw' will block. This makes sysadmins unhappy: real 14m36.232s user 0m0.003s sys 0m0.015s (output from 'time ps auxw' while a 20GB file was being mlocked without being previously preloaded into page cache) I propose that mlock() could release mmap_sem after the VM_LOCKED bits have been set in all appropriate VMAs. Then a second pass could be done to actually mlock the pages, in small batches, releasing mmap_sem when we block on disk access or when we detect some contention. This patch: Before this change, mlock() holds mmap_sem in exclusive mode while the pages get faulted in. In the case of a large mlock, this can potentially take a very long time. Various things will block while mmap_sem is held, including 'ps auxw'. This can make sysadmins angry. I propose that mlock() could release mmap_sem after the VM_LOCKED bits have been set in all appropriate VMAs. Then a second pass could be done to actually mlock the pages with mmap_sem held for reads only. We need to recheck the vma flags after we re-acquire mmap_sem, but this is easy. In the case where a vma has been munlocked before mlock completes, pages that were already marked as PageMlocked() are handled by the munlock() call, and mlock() is careful to not mark new page batches as PageMlocked() after the munlock() call has cleared the VM_LOCKED vma flags. So, the end result will be identical to what'd happen if munlock() had executed after the mlock() call. In a later change, I will allow the second pass to release mmap_sem when blocking on disk accesses or when it is otherwise contended, so that it won't be held for long periods of time even in shared mode.

out:
mlock: mlocked pages are unevictable Make sure that mlocked pages also live on the unevictable LRU, so kswapd will not scan them over and over again. This is achieved through various strategies: 1) add yet another page flag--PG_mlocked--to indicate that the page is locked for efficient testing in vmscan and, optionally, fault path. This allows early culling of unevictable pages, preventing them from getting to page_referenced()/try_to_unmap(). Also allows separate accounting of mlock'd pages, as Nick's original patch did. Note: Nick's original mlock patch used a PG_mlocked flag. I had removed this in favor of the PG_unevictable flag + an mlock_count [new page struct member]. I restored the PG_mlocked flag to eliminate the new count field. 2) add the mlock/unevictable infrastructure to mm/mlock.c, with internal APIs in mm/internal.h. This is a rework of Nick's original patch to these files, taking into account that mlocked pages are now kept on unevictable LRU list. 3) update vmscan.c:page_evictable() to check PageMlocked() and, if vma passed in, the vm_flags. Note that the vma will only be passed in for new pages in the fault path; and then only if the "cull unevictable pages in fault path" patch is included. 4) add try_to_unlock() to rmap.c to walk a page's rmap and ClearPageMlocked() if no other vmas have it mlocked. Reuses as much of try_to_unmap() as possible. This effectively replaces the use of one of the lru list links as an mlock count. If this mechanism let's pages in mlocked vmas leak through w/o PG_mlocked set [I don't know that it does], we should catch them later in try_to_unmap(). One hopes this will be rare, as it will be relatively expensive.

This makes sysadmins unhappy: real 14m36.232s user 0m0.003s sys 0m0.015s (output from 'time ps auxw' while a 20GB file was being mlocked without being previously preloaded into page cache) I propose that mlock() could release mmap_sem after the VM_LOCKED bits have been set in all appropriate VMAs. Then a second pass could be done to actually mlock the pages, in small batches, releasing mmap_sem when we block on disk access or when we detect some contention.

mm: remove lru_add_drain_all() from the munlock path lockdep warns about following message at boot time on one of my test machine. Then, schedule_on_each_cpu() sholdn't be called when the task have mmap_sem. Actually, lru_add_drain_all() exist to prevent the unevictalble pages stay on reclaimable lru list. but currenct unevictable code can rescue unevictable pages although it stay on reclaimable list. So removing is better. In addition, this patch add lru_add_drain_all() to sys_mlock() and sys_mlockall(). it isn't must. but it reduce the failure of moving to unevictable list. its failure can rescue in vmscan later. but reducing is better. Note, if above rescuing happend, the Mlocked and the Unevictable field mismatching happend in /proc/meminfo. but it doesn't cause any real trouble.
