dax: support dirty DAX entries in radix tree Add support for tracking dirty DAX entries in the struct address_space radix tree. This tree is already used for dirty page writeback, and it already supports the use of exceptional (non struct page*) entries. In order to properly track dirty DAX pages we will insert new exceptional entries into the radix tree that represent dirty DAX PTE or PMD pages. These exceptional entries will also contain the writeback addresses for the PTE or PMD faults that we can use at fsync/msync time. There are currently two types of exceptional entries (shmem and shadow) that can be placed into the radix tree, and this adds a third. We rely on the fact that only one type of exceptional entry can be found in a given radix tree based on its usage. This happens for free with DAX vs shmem but we explicitly prevent shadow entries from being added to radix trees for DAX mappings. The only shadow entries that would be generated for DAX radix trees would be to track zero page mappings that were created for holes. These pages would receive minimal benefit from having shadow entries, and the choice to have only one type of exceptional entry in a given radix tree makes the logic simpler both in clear_exceptional_entry() and in the rest of DAX.

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

mm: memcontrol: rewrite charge API These patches rework memcg charge lifetime to integrate more naturally with the lifetime of user pages. This drastically simplifies the code and reduces charging and uncharging overhead. The most expensive part of charging and uncharging is the page_cgroup bit spinlock, which is removed entirely after this series. Here are the top-10 profile entries of a stress test that reads a 128G sparse file on a freshly booted box, without even a dedicated cgroup (i.e. executing in the root memcg).

Worse, uncharge has to happen from a context that is still type-specific, rather than at the end of the page's lifetime with exclusive access, and so requires a lot of synchronization. Rewrite the charge API to provide a generic set of try_charge(), commit_charge() and cancel_charge() transaction operations, much like what's currently done for swap-in: mem_cgroup_try_charge() attempts to reserve a charge, reclaiming pages from the memcg if necessary. mem_cgroup_commit_charge() commits the page to the charge once it has a valid page->mapping and PageAnon() reliably tells the type. mem_cgroup_cancel_charge() aborts the transaction. This reduces the charge API and enables subsequent patches to drastically simplify uncharging. As pages need to be committed after rmap is established but before they are added to the LRU, page_add_new_anon_rmap() must stop doing LRU additions again. Revive lru_cache_add_active_or_unevictable().

Memory controller: memory accounting Add the accounting hooks. The accounting is carried out for RSS and Page Cache (unmapped) pages. There is now a common limit and accounting for both. The RSS accounting is accounted at page_add_*_rmap() and page_remove_rmap() time. Page cache is accounted at add_to_page_cache(), __delete_from_page_cache(). Swap cache is also accounted for. Each page's page_cgroup is protected with the last bit of the page_cgroup pointer, this makes handling of race conditions involving simultaneous mappings of a page easier. A reference count is kept in the page_cgroup to deal with cases where a page might be unmapped from the RSS of all tasks, but still lives in the page cache. Credits go to Vaidyanathan Srinivasan for helping with reference counting work of the page cgroup. Almost all of the page cache accounting code has help from Vaidyanathan Srinivasan.

mm, truncate: do not check mapping for every page being truncated During truncation, the mapping has already been checked for shmem and dax so it's known that workingset_update_node is required. This patch avoids the checks on mapping for each page being truncated. In all other cases, a lookup helper is used to determine if workingset_update_node() needs to be called. The one danger is that the API is slightly harder to use as calling workingset_update_node directly without checking for dax or shmem mappings could lead to surprises. However, the API rarely needs to be used and hopefully the comment is enough to give people the hint. sparsetruncate (tiny) 4.14.0-rc4 4.14.0-rc4 oneirq-v1r1 pickhelper-v1r1 Min Time 141.00 ( 0.00%) 140.00 ( 0.71%) 1st-qrtle Time 142.00 ( 0.00%) 141.00 ( 0.70%) 2nd-qrtle Time 142.00 ( 0.00%) 142.00 ( 0.00%) 3rd-qrtle Time 143.00 ( 0.00%) 143.00 ( 0.00%) Max-90% Time 144.00 ( 0.00%) 144.00 ( 0.00%) Max-95% Time 147.00 ( 0.00%) 145.00 ( 1.36%) Max-99% Time 195.00 ( 0.00%) 191.00 ( 2.05%) Max Time 230.00 ( 0.00%) 205.00 ( 10.87%) Amean Time 144.37 ( 0.00%) 143.82 ( 0.38%) Stddev Time 10.44 ( 0.00%) 9.00 ( 13.74%) Coeff Time 7.23 ( 0.00%) 6.26 ( 13.41%) Best99%Amean Time 143.72 ( 0.00%) 143.34 ( 0.26%) Best95%Amean Time 142.37 ( 0.00%) 142.00 ( 0.26%) Best90%Amean Time 142.19 ( 0.00%) 141.85 ( 0.24%) Best75%Amean Time 141.92 ( 0.00%) 141.58 ( 0.24%) Best50%Amean Time 141.69 ( 0.00%) 141.31 ( 0.27%) Best25%Amean Time 141.38 ( 0.00%) 140.97 ( 0.29%) As you'd expect, the gain is marginal but it can be detected. The differences in bonnie are all within the noise which is not surprising given the impact on the microbenchmark. radix_tree_update_node_t is a callback for some radix operations that optionally passes in a private field. The only user of the callback is workingset_update_node and as it no longer requires a mapping, the private field is removed.

psi: pressure stall information for CPU, memory, and IO When systems are overcommitted and resources become contended, it's hard to tell exactly the impact this has on workload productivity, or how close the system is to lockups and OOM kills. In particular, when machines work multiple jobs concurrently, the impact of overcommit in terms of latency and throughput on the individual job can be enormous. In order to maximize hardware utilization without sacrificing individual job health or risk complete machine lockups, this patch implements a way to quantify resource pressure in the system. A kernel built with CONFIG_PSI=y creates files in /proc/pressure/ that expose the percentage of time the system is stalled on CPU, memory, or IO, respectively. Stall states are aggregate versions of the per-task delay accounting delays: cpu: some tasks are runnable but not executing on a CPU memory: tasks are reclaiming, or waiting for swapin or thrashing cache io: tasks are waiting for io completions These percentages of walltime can be thought of as pressure percentages, and they give a general sense of system health and productivity loss incurred by resource overcommit. They can also indicate when the system is approaching lockup scenarios and OOMs. To do this, psi keeps track of the task states associated with each CPU and samples the time they spend in stall states. Every 2 seconds, the samples are averaged across CPUs - weighted by the CPUs' non-idle time to eliminate artifacts from unused CPUs - and translated into percentages of walltime. A running average of those percentages is maintained over 10s, 1m, and 5m periods (similar to the loadaverage).

mm: keep page cache radix tree nodes in check Previously, page cache radix tree nodes were freed after reclaim emptied out their page pointers. But now reclaim stores shadow entries in their place, which are only reclaimed when the inodes themselves are reclaimed. This is problematic for bigger files that are still in use after they have a significant amount of their cache reclaimed, without any of those pages actually refaulting. The shadow entries will just sit there and waste memory. In the worst case, the shadow entries will accumulate until the machine runs out of memory. To get this under control, the VM will track radix tree nodes exclusively containing shadow entries on a per-NUMA node list. Per-NUMA rather than global because we expect the radix tree nodes themselves to be allocated node-locally and we want to reduce cross-node references of otherwise independent cache workloads. A simple shrinker will then reclaim these nodes on memory pressure. A few things need to be stored in the radix tree node to implement the shadow node LRU and allow tree deletions coming from the list: 1. There is no index available that would describe the reverse path from the node up to the tree root, which is needed to perform a deletion. To solve this, encode in each node its offset inside the parent. This can be stored in the unused upper bits of the same member that stores the node's height at no extra space cost. 2. The number of shadow entries needs to be counted in addition to the regular entries, to quickly detect when the node is ready to go to the shadow node LRU list. The current entry count is an unsigned int but the maximum number of entries is 64, so a shadow counter can easily be stored in the unused upper bits. 3. Tree modification needs tree lock and tree root, which are located in the address space, so store an address_space backpointer in the node. The parent pointer of the node is in a union with the 2-word rcu_head, so the backpointer comes at no extra cost as well. 4. The node needs to be linked to an LRU list, which requires a list head inside the node. This does increase the size of the node, but it does not change the number of objects that fit into a slab page.

The shrinker needs to know when radix tree nodes contain only shadow entries, no pages, so node->count is split in half to count shadows in the upper bits and pages in the lower bits. Unfortunately, the radix tree implementation doesn't know of this and assumes all entries are in node->count. When there is a shadow entry directly in root->rnode and the tree is later extended, the radix tree implementation will copy that entry into the new node and and bump its node->count, i.e. increases the page count bits. Once the shadow gets removed and we subtract from the upper counter, node->count underflows and triggers the warning. Afterwards, without node->count reaching 0 again, the radix tree node is leaked. Limit shadow entries to when we have actual radix tree nodes and can count them properly. That means we lose the ability to detect refaults from files that had only the first page faulted in at eviction time.

The shrinker needs to know when radix tree nodes contain only shadow entries, no pages, so node->count is split in half to count shadows in the upper bits and pages in the lower bits. Unfortunately, the radix tree implementation doesn't know of this and assumes all entries are in node->count. When there is a shadow entry directly in root->rnode and the tree is later extended, the radix tree implementation will copy that entry into the new node and and bump its node->count, i.e. increases the page count bits. Once the shadow gets removed and we subtract from the upper counter, node->count underflows and triggers the warning. Afterwards, without node->count reaching 0 again, the radix tree node is leaked. Limit shadow entries to when we have actual radix tree nodes and can count them properly. That means we lose the ability to detect refaults from files that had only the first page faulted in at eviction time.

mm + fs: store shadow entries in page cache Reclaim will be leaving shadow entries in the page cache radix tree upon evicting the real page. As those pages are found from the LRU, an iput() can lead to the inode being freed concurrently. At this point, reclaim must no longer install shadow pages because the inode freeing code needs to ensure the page tree is really empty. Add an address_space flag, AS_EXITING, that the inode freeing code sets under the tree lock before doing the final truncate. Reclaim will check for this flag before installing shadow pages.

hugetlb: do not account hugetlb pages as NR_FILE_PAGES hugetlb pages uses add_to_page_cache to track shared mappings. This is OK from the data structure point of view but it is less so from the NR_FILE_PAGES accounting: - huge pages are accounted as 4k which is clearly wrong - this counter is used as the amount of the reclaimable page cache which is incorrect as well because hugetlb pages are special and not reclaimable - the counter is then exported to userspace via /proc/meminfo (in Cached:), /proc/vmstat and /proc/zoneinfo as nr_file_pages which is confusing at least: Cached: 8883504 kB HugePages_Free: 8348 ... Cached: 8916048 kB HugePages_Free: 156 ... thats 8192 huge pages allocated which is ~16G accounted as 32M There are usually not that many huge pages in the system for this to make any visible difference e.g. by fooling __vm_enough_memory or zone_pagecache_reclaimable. Fix this by special casing huge pages in both __delete_from_page_cache and __add_to_page_cache_locked. replace_page_cache_page is currently only used by fuse and that shouldn't touch hugetlb pages AFAICS but it is more robust to check for special casing there as well. Hugetlb pages shouldn't get to any other paths where we do accounting: - migration - we have a special handling via hugetlbfs_migrate_page - shmem - doesn't handle hugetlb pages directly even for SHM_HUGETLB resp. MAP_HUGETLB - swapcache - hugetlb is not swapable This has a user visible effect but I believe it is reasonable because the previously exported number is simply bogus. An alternative would be to account hugetlb pages with their real size and treat them similar to shmem. But this has some drawbacks. First we would have to special case in kernel users of NR_FILE_PAGES and considering how hugetlb is special we would have to do it everywhere. We do not want Cached exported by /proc/meminfo to include it because the value would be even more misleading. __vm_enough_memory and zone_pagecache_reclaimable would have to do the same thing because those pages are simply not reclaimable. The correction is even not trivial because we would have to consider all active hugetlb page sizes properly. Users of the counter outside of the kernel would have to do the same. So the question is why to account something that needs to be basically excluded for each reasonable usage. This doesn't make much sense to me. It seems that this has been broken since hugetlb was introduced but I haven't checked the whole history.

mm,thp: add read-only THP support for (non-shmem) FS This patch is (hopefully) the first step to enable THP for non-shmem filesystems. This patch enables an application to put part of its text sections to THP via madvise, for example: madvise((void *)0x600000, 0x200000, MADV_HUGEPAGE); We tried to reuse the logic for THP on tmpfs. Currently, write is not supported for non-shmem THP. khugepaged will only process vma with VM_DENYWRITE. sys_mmap() ignores VM_DENYWRITE requests (see ksys_mmap_pgoff). The only way to create vma with VM_DENYWRITE is execve(). This requirement limits non-shmem THP to text sections. The next patch will handle writes, which would only happen when the all the vmas with VM_DENYWRITE are unmapped. An EXPERIMENTAL config, READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS, is added to gate this feature.

memcg: add per cgroup dirty page accounting When modifying PG_Dirty on cached file pages, update the new MEM_CGROUP_STAT_DIRTY counter. This is done in the same places where global NR_FILE_DIRTY is managed. The new memcg stat is visible in the per memcg memory.stat cgroupfs file. The most recent past attempt at this was http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cgroups/8632 The new accounting supports future efforts to add per cgroup dirty page throttling and writeback. It also helps an administrator break down a container's memory usage and provides evidence to understand memcg oom kills (the new dirty count is included in memcg oom kill messages). The ability to move page accounting between memcg (memory.move_charge_at_immigrate) makes this accounting more complicated than the global counter. The existing mem_cgroup_{begin,end}_page_stat() lock is used to serialize move accounting with stat updates. Typical update operation: memcg = mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat(page) if (TestSetPageDirty()) { [...] mem_cgroup_update_page_stat(memcg) } mem_cgroup_end_page_stat(memcg) Summary of mem_cgroup_end_page_stat() overhead: - Without CONFIG_MEMCG it's a no-op - With CONFIG_MEMCG and no inter memcg task movement, it's just rcu_read_lock() - With CONFIG_MEMCG and inter memcg task movement, it's rcu_read_lock() + spin_lock_irqsave() A memcg parameter is added to several routines because their callers now grab mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat() which returns the memcg later needed by for mem_cgroup_update_page_stat(). Because mem_cgroup_begin_page_stat() may disable interrupts, some adjustments are needed: - move __mark_inode_dirty() from __set_page_dirty() to its caller. __mark_inode_dirty() locking does not want interrupts disabled. - use spin_lock_irqsave(tree_lock) rather than spin_lock_irq() in __delete_from_page_cache(), replace_page_cache_page(), invalidate_complete_page2(), and __remove_mapping(). text data bss dec hex filename 8925147 1774832 1785856 12485835 be84cb vmlinux-!CONFIG_MEMCG-before 8925339 1774832 1785856 12486027 be858b vmlinux-!CONFIG_MEMCG-after +192 text bytes 8965977 1784992 1785856 12536825 bf4bf9 vmlinux-CONFIG_MEMCG-before 8966750 1784992 1785856 12537598 bf4efe vmlinux-CONFIG_MEMCG-after +773 text bytes Performance tests run on v4.0-rc1-36-g4f671fe2f952.

mm: introduce delete_from_page_cache() Presently we increase the page refcount in add_to_page_cache() but don't decrease it in remove_from_page_cache(). Such asymmetry adds confusion, requiring that callers notice it and a comment explaining why they release a page reference. It's not a good API. A long time ago, Hugh tried it (http://lkml.org/lkml/2004/10/24/140) but gave up because reiser4's drop_page() had to unlock the page between removing it from page cache and doing the page_cache_release(). But now the situation is changed. I think at least things in current mainline don't have any obstacles. The problem is for out-of-mainline filesystems - if they have done such things as reiser4, this patch could be a problem but they will discover this at compile time since we remove remove_from_page_cache(). This patch: This function works as just wrapper remove_from_page_cache(). The difference is that it decreases page references in itself. So caller have to make sure it has a page reference before calling. This patch is ready for removing remove_from_page_cache().

[PATCH] fadvise(): write commands Add two new linux-specific fadvise extensions(): LINUX_FADV_ASYNC_WRITE: start async writeout of any dirty pages between file offsets `offset' and `offset+len'. Any pages which are currently under writeout are skipped, whether or not they are dirty. LINUX_FADV_WRITE_WAIT: wait upon writeout of any dirty pages between file offsets `offset' and `offset+len'. By combining these two operations the application may do several things: LINUX_FADV_ASYNC_WRITE: push some or all of the dirty pages at the disk. LINUX_FADV_WRITE_WAIT, LINUX_FADV_ASYNC_WRITE: push all of the currently dirty pages at the disk. LINUX_FADV_WRITE_WAIT, LINUX_FADV_ASYNC_WRITE, LINUX_FADV_WRITE_WAIT: push all of the currently dirty pages at the disk, wait until they have been written. It should be noted that none of these operations write out the file's metadata. So unless the application is strictly performing overwrites of already-instantiated disk blocks, there are no guarantees here that the data will be available after a crash. To complete this suite of operations I guess we should have a "sync file metadata only" operation. This gives applications access to all the building blocks needed for all sorts of sync operations. But sync-metadata doesn't fit well with the fadvise() interface. Probably it should be a new syscall: sys_fmetadatasync(). The patch also diddles with the meaning of `endbyte' in sys_fadvise64_64(). It is made to represent that last affected byte in the file (ie: it is inclusive). Generally, all these byterange and pagerange functions are inclusive so we can easily represent EOF with -1. As Ulrich notes, these two functions are somewhat abusive of the fadvise() concept, which appears to be "set the future policy for this fd". But these commands are a perfect fit with the fadvise() impementation, and several of the existing fadvise() commands are synchronous and don't affect future policy either. I think we can live with the slight incongruity. Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk-manpages@gmx.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

mm: write_cache_pages integrity fix In write_cache_pages, nr_to_write is heeded even for data-integrity syncs, so the function will return success after writing out nr_to_write pages, even if that was not sufficient to guarantee data integrity. The callers tend to set it to values that could break data interity semantics easily in practice. For example, nr_to_write can be set to mapping->nr_pages * 2, however if a file has a single, dirty page, then fsync is called, subsequent pages might be concurrently added and dirtied, then write_cache_pages might writeout two of these newly dirty pages, while not writing out the old page that should have been written out. Fix this by ignoring nr_to_write if it is a data integrity sync. This is a data integrity bug. The reason this has been done in the past is to avoid stalling sync operations behind page dirtiers. "If a file has one dirty page at offset 1000000000000000 then someone does an fsync() and someone else gets in first and starts madly writing pages at offset 0, we want to write that page at 1000000000000000. Somehow." What we do today is return success after an arbitrary amount of pages are written, whether or not we have provided the data-integrity semantics that the caller has asked for. Even this doesn't actually fix all stall cases completely: in the above situation, if the file has a huge number of pages in pagecache (but not dirty), then mapping->nrpages is going to be huge, even if pages are being dirtied. This change does indeed make the possibility of long stalls lager, and that's not a good thing, but lying about data integrity is even worse. We have to either perform the sync, or return -ELINUXISLAME so at least the caller knows what has happened. There are subsequent competing approaches in the works to solve the stall problems properly, without compromising data integrity.

[PATCH] writeback: fix range handling When a writeback_control's `start' and `end' fields are used to indicate a one-byte-range starting at file offset zero, the required values of .start=0,.end=0 mean that the ->writepages() implementation has no way of telling that it is being asked to perform a range request. Because we're currently overloading (start == 0 && end == 0) to mean "this is not a write-a-range request". To make all this sane, the patch changes range of writeback_control. So caller does: If it is calling ->writepages() to write pages, it sets range (range_start/end or range_cyclic) always. And if range_cyclic is true, ->writepages() thinks the range is cyclic, otherwise it just uses range_start and range_end. This patch does, - Add LLONG_MAX, LLONG_MIN, ULLONG_MAX to include/linux/kernel.h -1 is usually ok for range_end (type is long long). But, if someone did, range_end += val; range_end is "val - 1" u64val = range_end >> bits; u64val is "~(0ULL)" or something, they are wrong. So, this adds LLONG_MAX to avoid nasty things, and uses LLONG_MAX for range_end. - All callers of ->writepages() sets range_start/end or range_cyclic. - Fix updates of ->writeback_index. It seems already bit strange. If it starts at 0 and ended by check of nr_to_write, this last index may reduce chance to scan end of file. So, this updates ->writeback_index only if range_cyclic is true or whole-file is scanned.

writeback: make writeback_control track the inode being written back Currently, for cgroup writeback, the IO submission paths directly associate the bio's with the blkcg from inode_to_wb_blkcg_css(); however, it'd be necessary to keep more writeback context to implement foreign inode writeback detection. wbc (writeback_control) is the natural fit for the extra context - it persists throughout the writeback of each inode and is passed all the way down to IO submission paths. This patch adds wbc_attach_and_unlock_inode(), wbc_detach_inode(), and wbc_attach_fdatawrite_inode() which are used to associate wbc with the inode being written back. IO submission paths now use wbc_init_bio() instead of directly associating bio's with blkcg themselves. This leaves inode_to_wb_blkcg_css() w/o any user. The function is removed. wbc currently only tracks the associated wb (bdi_writeback). Future patches will add more for foreign inode detection. The association is established under i_lock which will be depended upon when migrating foreign inodes to other wb's. As currently, once established, inode to wb association never changes, going through wbc when initializing bio's doesn't cause any behavior changes. v2: submit_blk_blkcg() now checks whether the wbc is associated with a wb before dereferencing it. This can happen when pageout() is writing pages directly without going through the usual writeback path. As pageout() path is single-threaded, we don't want it to be blocked behind a slow cgroup and ultimately want it to delegate actual writing to the usual writeback path.

mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

fs: new infrastructure for writeback error handling and reporting Most filesystems currently use mapping_set_error and filemap_check_errors for setting and reporting/clearing writeback errors at the mapping level. filemap_check_errors is indirectly called from most of the filemap_fdatawait_* functions and from filemap_write_and_wait*. These functions are called from all sorts of contexts to wait on writeback to finish -- e.g. mostly in fsync, but also in truncate calls, getattr, etc. The non-fsync callers are problematic. We should be reporting writeback errors during fsync, but many places spread over the tree clear out errors before they can be properly reported, or report errors at nonsensical times. If I get -EIO on a stat() call, there is no reason for me to assume that it is because some previous writeback failed. The fact that it also clears out the error such that a subsequent fsync returns 0 is a bug, and a nasty one since that's potentially silent data corruption. This patch adds a small bit of new infrastructure for setting and reporting errors during address_space writeback. While the above was my original impetus for adding this, I think it's also the case that current fsync semantics are just problematic for userland. Most applications that call fsync do so to ensure that the data they wrote has hit the backing store. In the case where there are multiple writers to the file at the same time, this is really hard to determine. The first one to call fsync will see any stored error, and the rest get back 0. The processes with open fds may not be associated with one another in any way. They could even be in different containers, so ensuring coordination between all fsync callers is not really an option. One way to remedy this would be to track what file descriptor was used to dirty the file, but that's rather cumbersome and would likely be slow. However, there is a simpler way to improve the semantics here without incurring too much overhead. This set adds an errseq_t to struct address_space, and a corresponding one is added to struct file. Writeback errors are recorded in the mapping's errseq_t, and the one in struct file is used as the "since" value. This changes the semantics of the Linux fsync implementation such that applications can now use it to determine whether there were any writeback errors since fsync(fd) was last called (or since the file was opened in the case of fsync having never been called). Note that those writeback errors may have occurred when writing data that was dirtied via an entirely different fd, but that's the case now with the current mapping_set_error/filemap_check_error infrastructure. This will at least prevent you from getting a false report of success. The new behavior is still consistent with the POSIX spec, and is more reliable for application developers.

hugetlb: do not account hugetlb pages as NR_FILE_PAGES hugetlb pages uses add_to_page_cache to track shared mappings. This is OK from the data structure point of view but it is less so from the NR_FILE_PAGES accounting: - huge pages are accounted as 4k which is clearly wrong - this counter is used as the amount of the reclaimable page cache which is incorrect as well because hugetlb pages are special and not reclaimable - the counter is then exported to userspace via /proc/meminfo (in Cached:), /proc/vmstat and /proc/zoneinfo as nr_file_pages which is confusing at least: Cached: 8883504 kB HugePages_Free: 8348 ... Cached: 8916048 kB HugePages_Free: 156 ... thats 8192 huge pages allocated which is ~16G accounted as 32M There are usually not that many huge pages in the system for this to make any visible difference e.g. by fooling __vm_enough_memory or zone_pagecache_reclaimable. Fix this by special casing huge pages in both __delete_from_page_cache and __add_to_page_cache_locked. replace_page_cache_page is currently only used by fuse and that shouldn't touch hugetlb pages AFAICS but it is more robust to check for special casing there as well. Hugetlb pages shouldn't get to any other paths where we do accounting: - migration - we have a special handling via hugetlbfs_migrate_page - shmem - doesn't handle hugetlb pages directly even for SHM_HUGETLB resp. MAP_HUGETLB - swapcache - hugetlb is not swapable This has a user visible effect but I believe it is reasonable because the previously exported number is simply bogus. An alternative would be to account hugetlb pages with their real size and treat them similar to shmem. But this has some drawbacks. First we would have to special case in kernel users of NR_FILE_PAGES and considering how hugetlb is special we would have to do it everywhere. We do not want Cached exported by /proc/meminfo to include it because the value would be even more misleading. __vm_enough_memory and zone_pagecache_reclaimable would have to do the same thing because those pages are simply not reclaimable. The correction is even not trivial because we would have to consider all active hugetlb page sizes properly. Users of the counter outside of the kernel would have to do the same. So the question is why to account something that needs to be basically excluded for each reasonable usage. This doesn't make much sense to me. It seems that this has been broken since hugetlb was introduced but I haven't checked the whole history.

mm: memcontrol: rewrite charge API These patches rework memcg charge lifetime to integrate more naturally with the lifetime of user pages. This drastically simplifies the code and reduces charging and uncharging overhead. The most expensive part of charging and uncharging is the page_cgroup bit spinlock, which is removed entirely after this series. Here are the top-10 profile entries of a stress test that reads a 128G sparse file on a freshly booted box, without even a dedicated cgroup (i.e. executing in the root memcg).

Worse, uncharge has to happen from a context that is still type-specific, rather than at the end of the page's lifetime with exclusive access, and so requires a lot of synchronization. Rewrite the charge API to provide a generic set of try_charge(), commit_charge() and cancel_charge() transaction operations, much like what's currently done for swap-in: mem_cgroup_try_charge() attempts to reserve a charge, reclaiming pages from the memcg if necessary. mem_cgroup_commit_charge() commits the page to the charge once it has a valid page->mapping and PageAnon() reliably tells the type. mem_cgroup_cancel_charge() aborts the transaction. This reduces the charge API and enables subsequent patches to drastically simplify uncharging. As pages need to be committed after rmap is established but before they are added to the LRU, page_add_new_anon_rmap() must stop doing LRU additions again. Revive lru_cache_add_active_or_unevictable().

mm: speculative page references If we can be sure that elevating the page_count on a pagecache page will pin it, we can speculatively run this operation, and subsequently check to see if we hit the right page rather than relying on holding a lock or otherwise pinning a reference to the page. This can be done if get_page/put_page behaves consistently throughout the whole tree (ie. if we "get" the page after it has been used for something else, we must be able to free it with a put_page). Actually, there is a period where the count behaves differently: when the page is free or if it is a constituent page of a compound page. We need an atomic_inc_not_zero operation to ensure we don't try to grab the page in either case. This patch introduces the core locking protocol to the pagecache (ie. adds page_cache_get_speculative, and tweaks some update-side code to make it work). Thanks to Hugh for pointing out an improvement to the algorithm setting page_count to zero when we have control of all references, in order to hold off speculative getters.

mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

hugetlb: do not account hugetlb pages as NR_FILE_PAGES hugetlb pages uses add_to_page_cache to track shared mappings. This is OK from the data structure point of view but it is less so from the NR_FILE_PAGES accounting: - huge pages are accounted as 4k which is clearly wrong - this counter is used as the amount of the reclaimable page cache which is incorrect as well because hugetlb pages are special and not reclaimable - the counter is then exported to userspace via /proc/meminfo (in Cached:), /proc/vmstat and /proc/zoneinfo as nr_file_pages which is confusing at least: Cached: 8883504 kB HugePages_Free: 8348 ... Cached: 8916048 kB HugePages_Free: 156 ... thats 8192 huge pages allocated which is ~16G accounted as 32M There are usually not that many huge pages in the system for this to make any visible difference e.g. by fooling __vm_enough_memory or zone_pagecache_reclaimable. Fix this by special casing huge pages in both __delete_from_page_cache and __add_to_page_cache_locked. replace_page_cache_page is currently only used by fuse and that shouldn't touch hugetlb pages AFAICS but it is more robust to check for special casing there as well. Hugetlb pages shouldn't get to any other paths where we do accounting: - migration - we have a special handling via hugetlbfs_migrate_page - shmem - doesn't handle hugetlb pages directly even for SHM_HUGETLB resp. MAP_HUGETLB - swapcache - hugetlb is not swapable This has a user visible effect but I believe it is reasonable because the previously exported number is simply bogus. An alternative would be to account hugetlb pages with their real size and treat them similar to shmem. But this has some drawbacks. First we would have to special case in kernel users of NR_FILE_PAGES and considering how hugetlb is special we would have to do it everywhere. We do not want Cached exported by /proc/meminfo to include it because the value would be even more misleading. __vm_enough_memory and zone_pagecache_reclaimable would have to do the same thing because those pages are simply not reclaimable. The correction is even not trivial because we would have to consider all active hugetlb page sizes properly. Users of the counter outside of the kernel would have to do the same. So the question is why to account something that needs to be basically excluded for each reasonable usage. This doesn't make much sense to me. It seems that this has been broken since hugetlb was introduced but I haven't checked the whole history.

mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

mm: thrash detection-based file cache sizing The VM maintains cached filesystem pages on two types of lists. One list holds the pages recently faulted into the cache, the other list holds pages that have been referenced repeatedly on that first list. The idea is to prefer reclaiming young pages over those that have shown to benefit from caching in the past. We call the recently usedbut ultimately was not significantly better than a FIFO policy and still thrashed cache based on eviction speed, rather than actual demand for cache. This patch solves one half of the problem by decoupling the ability to detect working set changes from the inactive list size. By maintaining a history of recently evicted file pages it can detect frequently used pages with an arbitrarily small inactive list size, and subsequently apply pressure on the active list based on actual demand for cache, not just overall eviction speed. Every zone maintains a counter that tracks inactive list aging speed. When a page is evicted, a snapshot of this counter is stored in the now-empty page cache radix tree slot. On refault, the minimum access distance of the page can be assessed, to evaluate whether the page should be part of the active list or not. This fixes the VM's blindness towards working set changes in excess of the inactive list. And it's the foundation to further improve the protection ability and reduce the minimum inactive list size of 50%.

mm: speculative page references If we can be sure that elevating the page_count on a pagecache page will pin it, we can speculatively run this operation, and subsequently check to see if we hit the right page rather than relying on holding a lock or otherwise pinning a reference to the page. This can be done if get_page/put_page behaves consistently throughout the whole tree (ie. if we "get" the page after it has been used for something else, we must be able to free it with a put_page). Actually, there is a period where the count behaves differently: when the page is free or if it is a constituent page of a compound page. We need an atomic_inc_not_zero operation to ensure we don't try to grab the page in either case. This patch introduces the core locking protocol to the pagecache (ie. adds page_cache_get_speculative, and tweaks some update-side code to make it work). Thanks to Hugh for pointing out an improvement to the algorithm setting page_count to zero when we have control of all references, in order to hold off speculative getters.

mm: thrash detection-based file cache sizing The VM maintains cached filesystem pages on two types of lists. One list holds the pages recently faulted into the cache, the other list holds pages that have been referenced repeatedly on that first list. The idea is to prefer reclaiming young pages over those that have shown to benefit from caching in the past. We call the recently usedbut ultimately was not significantly better than a FIFO policy and still thrashed cache based on eviction speed, rather than actual demand for cache. This patch solves one half of the problem by decoupling the ability to detect working set changes from the inactive list size. By maintaining a history of recently evicted file pages it can detect frequently used pages with an arbitrarily small inactive list size, and subsequently apply pressure on the active list based on actual demand for cache, not just overall eviction speed. Every zone maintains a counter that tracks inactive list aging speed. When a page is evicted, a snapshot of this counter is stored in the now-empty page cache radix tree slot. On refault, the minimum access distance of the page can be assessed, to evaluate whether the page should be part of the active list or not. This fixes the VM's blindness towards working set changes in excess of the inactive list.

mm: workingset: only do workingset activations on reads This is a follow-up to http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg101739.html where Andres reported his database workingset being pushed out by the minimum size enforcement of the inactive file list - currently 50% of cache - as well as repeatedly written file pages that are never actually read. Two changes fell out of the discussions. The first change observes that pages that are only ever written don't benefit from caching beyond what the writeback cache does for partial page writes, and so we shouldn't promote them to the active file list where they compete with pages whose cached data is actually accessed repeatedly. This change comes in two patches - one for in-cache write accesses and one for refaults triggered by writes, neither of which should promote a cache page. Second, with the refault detection we don't need to set 50% of the cache aside for used-once cache anymore since we can detect frequently used pages even when they are evicted between accesses. We can allow the active list to be bigger and thus protect a bigger workingset that isn't challenged by streamers. Depending on the access patterns, this can increase major faults during workingset transitions for better performance during stable phases. This patch (of 3): When rewriting a page, the data in that page is replaced with new data. This means that evicting something else from the active file list, in order to cache data that will be replaced by something else, is likely to be a waste of memory. It is better to save the active list for frequently read pages, because reads actually use the data that is in the page. This patch ignores partial writes, because it is unclear whether the complexity of identifying those is worth any potential performance gain obtained from better caching pages that see repeated partial writes at large enough intervals to not get caught by the use-twice promotion code used for the inactive file list.

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

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.

cpuset: mm: reduce large amounts of memory barrier related damage v3 Commit c0ff7453bb5c ("cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when changing cpuset's mems") wins a super prize for the largest number of memory barriers entered into fast paths for one commit. [get|put]_mems_allowed is incredibly heavy with pairs of full memory barriers inserted into a number of hot paths. This was detected while investigating at large page allocator slowdown introduced some time after 2.6.32. The largest portion of this overhead was shown by oprofile to be at an mfence introduced by this commit into the page allocator hot path. For extra style points, the commit introduced the use of yield() in an implementation of what looks like a spinning mutex. This patch replaces the full memory barriers on both read and write sides with a sequence counter with just read barriers on the fast path side. This is much cheaper on some architectures, including x86. The main bulk of the patch is the retry logic if the nodemask changes in a manner that can cause a false failure. While updating the nodemask, a check is made to see if a false failure is a risk. If it is, the sequence number gets bumped and parallel allocators will briefly stall while the nodemask update takes place. In a page fault test microbenchmark, oprofile samples from __alloc_pages_nodemask went from 4.53% of all samples to 1.15%.

n = cpuset_mem_spread_node();
mm: rename alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node() alloc_pages_exact_node() was introduced in commit 6484eb3e2a81 ("page allocator: do not check NUMA node ID when the caller knows the node is valid") as an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node(), that doesn't fallback to current node for nid == NUMA_NO_NODE. Unfortunately the name of the function can easily suggest that the allocation is restricted to the given node and fails otherwise. In truth, the node is only preferred, unless __GFP_THISNODE is passed among the gfp flags. The misleading name has lead to mistakes in the past, see for example commits 5265047ac301 ("mm, thp: really limit transparent hugepage allocation to local node") and b360edb43f8e ("mm, mempolicy: migrate_to_node should only migrate to node"). Another issue with the name is that there's a family of alloc_pages_exact*() functions where 'exact' means exact size (instead of page order), which leads to more confusion. To prevent further mistakes, this patch effectively renames alloc_pages_exact_node() to __alloc_pages_node() to better convey that it's an optimized variant of alloc_pages_node() not intended for general usage. Both functions get described in comments. It has been also considered to really provide a convenience function for allocations restricted to a node, but the major opinion seems to be that __GFP_THISNODE already provides that functionality and we shouldn't duplicate the API needlessly. The number of users would be small anyway. Existing callers of alloc_pages_exact_node() are simply converted to call __alloc_pages_node(), with the exception of sba_alloc_coherent() which open-codes the check for NUMA_NO_NODE, so it is converted to use alloc_pages_node() instead. This means it no longer performs some VM_BUG_ON checks, and since the current check for nid in alloc_pages_node() uses a 'nid < 0' comparison (which includes NUMA_NO_NODE), it may hide wrong values which would be previously exposed. Both differences will be rectified by the next patch. To sum up, this patch makes no functional changes, except temporarily hiding potentially buggy callers. Restricting the checks in alloc_pages_node() is left for the next patch which can in turn expose more existing buggy callers.

This was detected while investigating at large page allocator slowdown introduced some time after 2.6.32. The largest portion of this overhead was shown by oprofile to be at an mfence introduced by this commit into the page allocator hot path. For extra style points, the commit introduced the use of yield() in an implementation of what looks like a spinning mutex. This patch replaces the full memory barriers on both read and write sides with a sequence counter with just read barriers on the fast path side. This is much cheaper on some architectures, including x86. The main bulk of the patch is the retry logic if the nodemask changes in a manner that can cause a false failure. While updating the nodemask, a check is made to see if a false failure is a risk. If it is, the sequence number gets bumped and parallel allocators will briefly stall while the nodemask update takes place. In a page fault test microbenchmark, oprofile samples from __alloc_pages_nodemask went from 4.53% of all samples to 1.15%. The actual results were 3.3.0-rc3 3.3.0-rc3 rc3-vanilla nobarrier-v2r1 Clients 1 UserTime 0.07 ( 0.00%) 0.08 (-14.19%) Clients 2 UserTime 0.07 ( 0.00%) 0.07 ( 2.72%) Clients 4 UserTime 0.08 ( 0.00%) 0.07 ( 3.29%) Clients 1 SysTime 0.70 ( 0.00%) 0.65 ( 6.65%) Clients 2 SysTime 0.85 ( 0.00%) 0.82 ( 3.65%) Clients 4 SysTime 1.41 ( 0.00%) 1.41 ( 0.32%) Clients 1 WallTime 0.77 ( 0.00%) 0.74 ( 4.19%) Clients 2 WallTime 0.47 ( 0.00%) 0.45 ( 3.73%) Clients 4 WallTime 0.38 ( 0.00%) 0.37 ( 1.58%) Clients 1 Flt/sec/cpu 497620.28 ( 0.00%) 520294.53 ( 4.56%) Clients 2 Flt/sec/cpu 414639.05 ( 0.00%) 429882.01 ( 3.68%) Clients 4 Flt/sec/cpu 257959.16 ( 0.00%) 258761.48 ( 0.31%) Clients 1 Flt/sec 495161.39 ( 0.00%) 517292.87 ( 4.47%) Clients 2 Flt/sec 820325.95 ( 0.00%) 850289.77 ( 3.65%) Clients 4 Flt/sec 1020068.93 ( 0.00%) 1022674.06 ( 0.26%) MMTests Statistics: duration Sys Time Running Test (seconds) 135.68 132.17 User+Sys Time Running Test (seconds) 164.2 160.13 Total Elapsed Time (seconds) 123.46 120.87 The overall improvement is small but the System CPU time is much improved and roughly in correlation to what oprofile reported (these performance figures are without profiling so skew is expected). The actual number of page faults is noticeably improved. For benchmarks like kernel builds, the overall benefit is marginal but the system CPU time is slightly reduced. To test the actual bug the commit fixed I opened two terminals. The first ran within a cpuset and continually ran a small program that faulted 100M of anonymous data. In a second window, the nodemask of the cpuset was continually randomised in a loop. Without the commit, the program would fail every so often (usually within 10 seconds) and obviously with the commit everything worked fine. With this patch applied, it also worked fine so the fix should be functionally equivalent.

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.

mm: allow a controlled amount of unfairness in the page lock Commit 2a9127fcf229 ("mm: rewrite wait_on_page_bit_common() logic") made the page locking entirely fair, in that if a waiter came in while the lock was held, the lock would be transferred to the lockers strictly in order. That was intended to finally get rid of the long-reported watchdog failures that involved the page lock under extreme load, where a process could end up waiting essentially forever, as other page lockers stole the lock from under it. It also improved some benchmarks, but it ended up causing huge performance regressions on others, simply because fair lock behavior doesn't end up giving out the lock as aggressively, causing better worst-case latency, but potentially much worse average latencies and throughput. Instead of reverting that change entirely, this introduces a controlled amount of unfairness, with a sysctl knob to tune it if somebody needs to. But the default value should hopefully be good for any normal load, allowing a few rounds of lock stealing, but enforcing the strict ordering before the lock has been stolen too many times. There is also a hint from Matthieu Baerts that the fair page coloring may end up exposing an ABBA deadlock that is hidden by the usual optimistic lock stealing, and while the unfairness doesn't fix the fundamental issue (and I'm still looking at that), it avoids it in practice. The amount of unfairness can be modified by writing a new value to the 'sysctl_page_lock_unfairness' variable (default value of 5, exposed through /proc/sys/vm/page_lock_unfairness), but that is hopefully something we'd use mainly for debugging rather than being necessary for any deep system tuning. This whole issue has exposed just how critical the page lock can be, and how contended it gets under certain locks. And the main contention doesn't really seem to be anything related to IO (which was the origin of this lock), but for things like just verifying that the page file mapping is stable while faulting in the page into a page table.

Minor page waitqueue cleanups Tim Chen and Kan Liang have been battling a customer load that shows extremely long page wakeup lists. The cause seems to be constant NUMA migration of a hot page that is shared across a lot of threads, but the actual root cause for the exact behavior has not been found. Tim has a patch that batches the wait list traversal at wakeup time, so that we at least don't get long uninterruptible cases where we traverse and wake up thousands of processes and get nasty latency spikes. That is likely 4.14 material, but we're still discussing the page waitqueue specific parts of it. In the meantime, I've tried to look at making the page wait queues less expensive, and failing miserably. If you have thousands of threads waiting for the same page, it will be painful. We'll need to try to figure out the NUMA balancing issue some day, in addition to avoiding the excessive spinlock hold times. That said, having tried to rewrite the page wait queues, I can at least fix up some of the braindamage in the current situation. In particular: (a) we don't want to continue walking the page wait list if the bit we're waiting for already got set again (which seems to be one of the patterns of the bad load). That makes no progress and just causes pointless cache pollution chasing the pointers. (b) we don't want to put the non-locking waiters always on the front of the queue, and the locking waiters always on the back. Not only is that unfair, it means that we wake up thousands of reading threads that will just end up being blocked by the writer later anyway. Also add a comment about the layout of 'struct wait_page_key' - there is an external user of it in the cachefiles code that means that it has to match the layout of 'struct wait_bit_key' in the two first members. It so happens to match, because 'struct page *' and 'unsigned long *' end up having the same values simply because the page flags are the first member in struct page.

mm: put_and_wait_on_page_locked() while page is migrated Waiting on a page migration entry has used wait_on_page_locked() all along since 2006: but you cannot safely wait_on_page_locked() without holding a reference to the page, and that extra reference is enough to make migrate_page_move_mapping() fail with -EAGAIN, when a racing task faults on the entry before migrate_page_move_mapping() gets there. And that failure is retried nine times, amplifying the pain when trying to migrate a popular page. With a single persistent faulter, migration sometimes succeeds; with two or three concurrent faulters, success becomes much less likely (and the more the page was mapped, the worse the overhead of unmapping and remapping it on each try). This is especially a problem for memory offlining, where the outer level retries forever (or until terminated from userspace), because a heavy refault workload can trigger an endless loop of migration failures. wait_on_page_locked() is the wrong tool for the job. David Herrmann (but was he the first?) noticed this issue in 2014: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=140110465608116&w=2 Tim Chen started a thread in August 2017 which appears relevant: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150275941014915&w=2 where Kan Liang went on to implicate __migration_entry_wait(): https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150300268411980&w=2 and the thread ended up with the v4.14 commits: 2554db916586 ("sched/wait: Break up long wake list walk") 11a19c7b099f ("sched/wait: Introduce wakeup boomark in wake_up_page_bit") Baoquan He reported "Memory hotplug softlock issue" 14 November 2018: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=154217936431300&w=2 We have all assumed that it is essential to hold a page reference while waiting on a page lock: partly to guarantee that there is still a struct page when MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is configured, but also to protect against reuse of the struct page going to someone who then holds the page locked indefinitely, when the waiter can reasonably expect timely unlocking. But in fact, so long as wait_on_page_bit_common() does the put_page(), and is careful not to rely on struct page contents thereafter, there is no need to hold a reference to the page while waiting on it. That does mean that this case cannot go back through the loop: but that's fine for the page migration case, and even if used more widely, is limited by the "Stop walking if it's locked" optimization in wake_page_function(). Add interface put_and_wait_on_page_locked() to do this, using "behavior" enum in place of "lock" arg to wait_on_page_bit_common() to implement it. No interruptible or killable variant needed yet, but they might follow: I have a vague notion that reporting -EINTR should take precedence over return from wait_on_page_bit_common() without knowing the page state, so arrange it accordingly - but that may be nothing but pedantic. __migration_entry_wait() still has to take a brief reference to the page, prior to calling put_and_wait_on_page_locked(): but now that it is dropped before waiting, the chance of impeding page migration is very much reduced. Should we perhaps disable preemption across this? shrink_page_list()'s __ClearPageLocked(): that was a surprise! This survived a lot of testing before that showed up. PageWaiters may have been set by wait_on_page_bit_common(), and the reference dropped, just before shrink_page_list() succeeds in freezing its last page reference: in such a case, unlock_page() must be used. Follow the suggestion from Michal Hocko, just revert a978d6f52106 ("mm: unlockless reclaim") now: that optimization predates PageWaiters, and won't buy much these days; but we can reinstate it for the !PageWaiters case if anyone notices. It does raise the question: should vmscan.c's is_page_cache_freeable() and __remove_mapping() now treat a PageWaiters page as if an extra reference were held? Perhaps, but I don't think it matters much, since shrink_page_list() already had to win its trylock_page(), so waiters are not very common there: I noticed no difference when trying the bigger change, and it's surely not needed while put_and_wait_on_page_locked() is only used for page migration.

mm: allow a controlled amount of unfairness in the page lock Commit 2a9127fcf229 ("mm: rewrite wait_on_page_bit_common() logic") made the page locking entirely fair, in that if a waiter came in while the lock was held, the lock would be transferred to the lockers strictly in order. That was intended to finally get rid of the long-reported watchdog failures that involved the page lock under extreme load, where a process could end up waiting essentially forever, as other page lockers stole the lock from under it. It also improved some benchmarks, but it ended up causing huge performance regressions on others, simply because fair lock behavior doesn't end up giving out the lock as aggressively, causing better worst-case latency, but potentially much worse average latencies and throughput. Instead of reverting that change entirely, this introduces a controlled amount of unfairness, with a sysctl knob to tune it if somebody needs to. But the default value should hopefully be good for any normal load, allowing a few rounds of lock stealing, but enforcing the strict ordering before the lock has been stolen too many times. There is also a hint from Matthieu Baerts that the fair page coloring may end up exposing an ABBA deadlock that is hidden by the usual optimistic lock stealing, and while the unfairness doesn't fix the fundamental issue (and I'm still looking at that), it avoids it in practice. The amount of unfairness can be modified by writing a new value to the 'sysctl_page_lock_unfairness' variable (default value of 5, exposed through /proc/sys/vm/page_lock_unfairness), but that is hopefully something we'd use mainly for debugging rather than being necessary for any deep system tuning. This whole issue has exposed just how critical the page lock can be, and how contended it gets under certain locks. And the main contention doesn't really seem to be anything related to IO (which was the origin of this lock), but for things like just verifying that the page file mapping is stable while faulting in the page into a page table.

* If it's a lock handoff wait, we get the bit for it, and
* stop walking (and do not wake it up) if we can't.
mm: put_and_wait_on_page_locked() while page is migrated Waiting on a page migration entry has used wait_on_page_locked() all along since 2006: but you cannot safely wait_on_page_locked() without holding a reference to the page, and that extra reference is enough to make migrate_page_move_mapping() fail with -EAGAIN, when a racing task faults on the entry before migrate_page_move_mapping() gets there. And that failure is retried nine times, amplifying the pain when trying to migrate a popular page. With a single persistent faulter, migration sometimes succeeds; with two or three concurrent faulters, success becomes much less likely (and the more the page was mapped, the worse the overhead of unmapping and remapping it on each try). This is especially a problem for memory offlining, where the outer level retries forever (or until terminated from userspace), because a heavy refault workload can trigger an endless loop of migration failures. wait_on_page_locked() is the wrong tool for the job.

mm: put_and_wait_on_page_locked() while page is migrated Waiting on a page migration entry has used wait_on_page_locked() all along since 2006: but you cannot safely wait_on_page_locked() without holding a reference to the page, and that extra reference is enough to make migrate_page_move_mapping() fail with -EAGAIN, when a racing task faults on the entry before migrate_page_move_mapping() gets there. And that failure is retried nine times, amplifying the pain when trying to migrate a popular page. With a single persistent faulter, migration sometimes succeeds; with two or three concurrent faulters, success becomes much less likely (and the more the page was mapped, the worse the overhead of unmapping and remapping it on each try). This is especially a problem for memory offlining, where the outer level retries forever (or until terminated from userspace), because a heavy refault workload can trigger an endless loop of migration failures. wait_on_page_locked() is the wrong tool for the job. David Herrmann (but was he the first?) noticed this issue in 2014: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=140110465608116&w=2 Tim Chen started a thread in August 2017 which appears relevant: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150275941014915&w=2 where Kan Liang went on to implicate __migration_entry_wait(): https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150300268411980&w=2 and the thread ended up with the v4.14 commits: 2554db916586 ("sched/wait: Break up long wake list walk") 11a19c7b099f ("sched/wait: Introduce wakeup boomark in wake_up_page_bit") Baoquan He reported "Memory hotplug softlock issue" 14 November 2018: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=154217936431300&w=2 We have all assumed that it is essential to hold a page reference while waiting on a page lock: partly to guarantee that there is still a struct page when MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is configured, but also to protect against reuse of the struct page going to someone who then holds the page locked indefinitely, when the waiter can reasonably expect timely unlocking. But in fact, so long as wait_on_page_bit_common() does the put_page(), and is careful not to rely on struct page contents thereafter, there is no need to hold a reference to the page while waiting on it. That does mean that this case cannot go back through the loop: but that's fine for the page migration case, and even if used more widely, is limited by the "Stop walking if it's locked" optimization in wake_page_function(). Add interface put_and_wait_on_page_locked() to do this, using "behavior" enum in place of "lock" arg to wait_on_page_bit_common() to implement it. No interruptible or killable variant needed yet, but they might follow: I have a vague notion that reporting -EINTR should take precedence over return from wait_on_page_bit_common() without knowing the page state, so arrange it accordingly - but that may be nothing but pedantic. __migration_entry_wait() still has to take a brief reference to the page, prior to calling put_and_wait_on_page_locked(): but now that it is dropped before waiting, the chance of impeding page migration is very much reduced. Should we perhaps disable preemption across this? shrink_page_list()'s __ClearPageLocked(): that was a surprise! This survived a lot of testing before that showed up. PageWaiters may have been set by wait_on_page_bit_common(), and the reference dropped, just before shrink_page_list() succeeds in freezing its last page reference: in such a case, unlock_page() must be used. Follow the suggestion from Michal Hocko, just revert a978d6f52106 ("mm: unlockless reclaim") now: that optimization predates PageWaiters, and won't buy much these days; but we can reinstate it for the !PageWaiters case if anyone notices. It does raise the question: should vmscan.c's is_page_cache_freeable() and __remove_mapping() now treat a PageWaiters page as if an extra reference were held? Perhaps, but I don't think it matters much, since shrink_page_list() already had to win its trylock_page(), so waiters are not very common there: I noticed no difference when trying the bigger change, and it's surely not needed while put_and_wait_on_page_locked() is only used for page migration.

mm: allow a controlled amount of unfairness in the page lock Commit 2a9127fcf229 ("mm: rewrite wait_on_page_bit_common() logic") made the page locking entirely fair, in that if a waiter came in while the lock was held, the lock would be transferred to the lockers strictly in order. That was intended to finally get rid of the long-reported watchdog failures that involved the page lock under extreme load, where a process could end up waiting essentially forever, as other page lockers stole the lock from under it. It also improved some benchmarks, but it ended up causing huge performance regressions on others, simply because fair lock behavior doesn't end up giving out the lock as aggressively, causing better worst-case latency, but potentially much worse average latencies and throughput. Instead of reverting that change entirely, this introduces a controlled amount of unfairness, with a sysctl knob to tune it if somebody needs to. But the default value should hopefully be good for any normal load, allowing a few rounds of lock stealing, but enforcing the strict ordering before the lock has been stolen too many times. There is also a hint from Matthieu Baerts that the fair page coloring may end up exposing an ABBA deadlock that is hidden by the usual optimistic lock stealing, and while the unfairness doesn't fix the fundamental issue (and I'm still looking at that), it avoids it in practice. The amount of unfairness can be modified by writing a new value to the 'sysctl_page_lock_unfairness' variable (default value of 5, exposed through /proc/sys/vm/page_lock_unfairness), but that is hopefully something we'd use mainly for debugging rather than being necessary for any deep system tuning. This whole issue has exposed just how critical the page lock can be, and how contended it gets under certain locks. And the main contention doesn't really seem to be anything related to IO (which was the origin of this lock), but for things like just verifying that the page file mapping is stable while faulting in the page into a page table.

David Herrmann (but was he the first?) noticed this issue in 2014: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=140110465608116&w=2 Tim Chen started a thread in August 2017 which appears relevant: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150275941014915&w=2 where Kan Liang went on to implicate __migration_entry_wait(): https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150300268411980&w=2 and the thread ended up with the v4.14 commits: 2554db916586 ("sched/wait: Break up long wake list walk") 11a19c7b099f ("sched/wait: Introduce wakeup boomark in wake_up_page_bit") Baoquan He reported "Memory hotplug softlock issue" 14 November 2018: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=154217936431300&w=2 We have all assumed that it is essential to hold a page reference while waiting on a page lock: partly to guarantee that there is still a struct page when MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is configured, but also to protect against reuse of the struct page going to someone who then holds the page locked indefinitely, when the waiter can reasonably expect timely unlocking. But in fact, so long as wait_on_page_bit_common() does the put_page(), and is careful not to rely on struct page contents thereafter, there is no need to hold a reference to the page while waiting on it. That does mean that this case cannot go back through the loop: but that's fine for the page migration case, and even if used more widely, is limited by the "Stop walking if it's locked" optimization in wake_page_function(). Add interface put_and_wait_on_page_locked() to do this, using "behavior" enum in place of "lock" arg to wait_on_page_bit_common() to implement it. No interruptible or killable variant needed yet, but they might follow: I have a vague notion that reporting -EINTR should take precedence over return from wait_on_page_bit_common() without knowing the page state, so arrange it accordingly - but that may be nothing but pedantic. __migration_entry_wait() still has to take a brief reference to the page, prior to calling put_and_wait_on_page_locked(): but now that it is dropped before waiting, the chance of impeding page migration is very much reduced. Should we perhaps disable preemption across this? shrink_page_list()'s __ClearPageLocked(): that was a surprise! This survived a lot of testing before that showed up. PageWaiters may have been set by wait_on_page_bit_common(), and the reference dropped, just before shrink_page_list() succeeds in freezing its last page reference: in such a case, unlock_page() must be used. Follow the suggestion from Michal Hocko, just revert a978d6f52106 ("mm: unlockless reclaim") now: that optimization predates PageWaiters, and won't buy much these days; but we can reinstate it for the !PageWaiters case if anyone notices. It does raise the question: should vmscan.c's is_page_cache_freeable() and __remove_mapping() now treat a PageWaiters page as if an extra reference were held? Perhaps, but I don't think it matters much, since shrink_page_list() already had to win its trylock_page(), so waiters are not very common there: I noticed no difference when trying the bigger change, and it's surely not needed while put_and_wait_on_page_locked() is only used for page migration.

In order to maximize hardware utilization without sacrificing individual job health or risk complete machine lockups, this patch implements a way to quantify resource pressure in the system. A kernel built with CONFIG_PSI=y creates files in /proc/pressure/ that expose the percentage of time the system is stalled on CPU, memory, or IO, respectively.

They can also indicate when the system is approaching lockup scenarios and OOMs. To do this, psi keeps track of the task states associated with each CPU and samples the time they spend in stall states.

They can also indicate when the system is approaching lockup scenarios and OOMs. To do this, psi keeps track of the task states associated with each CPU and samples the time they spend in stall states. Every 2 seconds, the samples are averaged across CPUs - weighted by the CPUs' non-idle time to eliminate artifacts from unused CPUs - and translated into percentages of walltime. A running average of those percentages is maintained over 10s, 1m, and 5m periods (similar to the loadaverage).

mm: put_and_wait_on_page_locked() while page is migrated Waiting on a page migration entry has used wait_on_page_locked() all along since 2006: but you cannot safely wait_on_page_locked() without holding a reference to the page, and that extra reference is enough to make migrate_page_move_mapping() fail with -EAGAIN, when a racing task faults on the entry before migrate_page_move_mapping() gets there. And that failure is retried nine times, amplifying the pain when trying to migrate a popular page. With a single persistent faulter, migration sometimes succeeds; with two or three concurrent faulters, success becomes much less likely (and the more the page was mapped, the worse the overhead of unmapping and remapping it on each try). This is especially a problem for memory offlining, where the outer level retries forever (or until terminated from userspace), because a heavy refault workload can trigger an endless loop of migration failures. wait_on_page_locked() is the wrong tool for the job. David Herrmann (but was he the first?) noticed this issue in 2014: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=140110465608116&w=2 Tim Chen started a thread in August 2017 which appears relevant: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150275941014915&w=2 where Kan Liang went on to implicate __migration_entry_wait(): https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150300268411980&w=2 and the thread ended up with the v4.14 commits: 2554db916586 ("sched/wait: Break up long wake list walk") 11a19c7b099f ("sched/wait: Introduce wakeup boomark in wake_up_page_bit") Baoquan He reported "Memory hotplug softlock issue" 14 November 2018: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=154217936431300&w=2 We have all assumed that it is essential to hold a page reference while waiting on a page lock: partly to guarantee that there is still a struct page when MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is configured, but also to protect against reuse of the struct page going to someone who then holds the page locked indefinitely, when the waiter can reasonably expect timely unlocking. But in fact, so long as wait_on_page_bit_common() does the put_page(), and is careful not to rely on struct page contents thereafter, there is no need to hold a reference to the page while waiting on it. That does mean that this case cannot go back through the loop: but that's fine for the page migration case, and even if used more widely, is limited by the "Stop walking if it's locked" optimization in wake_page_function(). Add interface put_and_wait_on_page_locked() to do this, using "behavior" enum in place of "lock" arg to wait_on_page_bit_common() to implement it. No interruptible or killable variant needed yet, but they might follow: I have a vague notion that reporting -EINTR should take precedence over return from wait_on_page_bit_common() without knowing the page state, so arrange it accordingly - but that may be nothing but pedantic. __migration_entry_wait() still has to take a brief reference to the page, prior to calling put_and_wait_on_page_locked(): but now that it is dropped before waiting, the chance of impeding page migration is very much reduced. Should we perhaps disable preemption across this? shrink_page_list()'s __ClearPageLocked(): that was a surprise! This survived a lot of testing before that showed up. PageWaiters may have been set by wait_on_page_bit_common(), and the reference dropped, just before shrink_page_list() succeeds in freezing its last page reference: in such a case, unlock_page() must be used. Follow the suggestion from Michal Hocko, just revert a978d6f52106 ("mm: unlockless reclaim") now: that optimization predates PageWaiters, and won't buy much these days; but we can reinstate it for the !PageWaiters case if anyone notices. It does raise the question: should vmscan.c's is_page_cache_freeable() and __remove_mapping() now treat a PageWaiters page as if an extra reference were held? Perhaps, but I don't think it matters much, since shrink_page_list() already had to win its trylock_page(), so waiters are not very common there: I noticed no difference when trying the bigger change, and it's surely not needed while put_and_wait_on_page_locked() is only used for page migration.

mm: put_and_wait_on_page_locked() while page is migrated Waiting on a page migration entry has used wait_on_page_locked() all along since 2006: but you cannot safely wait_on_page_locked() without holding a reference to the page, and that extra reference is enough to make migrate_page_move_mapping() fail with -EAGAIN, when a racing task faults on the entry before migrate_page_move_mapping() gets there. And that failure is retried nine times, amplifying the pain when trying to migrate a popular page. With a single persistent faulter, migration sometimes succeeds; with two or three concurrent faulters, success becomes much less likely (and the more the page was mapped, the worse the overhead of unmapping and remapping it on each try). This is especially a problem for memory offlining, where the outer level retries forever (or until terminated from userspace), because a heavy refault workload can trigger an endless loop of migration failures. wait_on_page_locked() is the wrong tool for the job. David Herrmann (but was he the first?) noticed this issue in 2014: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=140110465608116&w=2 Tim Chen started a thread in August 2017 which appears relevant: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150275941014915&w=2 where Kan Liang went on to implicate __migration_entry_wait(): https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150300268411980&w=2 and the thread ended up with the v4.14 commits: 2554db916586 ("sched/wait: Break up long wake list walk") 11a19c7b099f ("sched/wait: Introduce wakeup boomark in wake_up_page_bit") Baoquan He reported "Memory hotplug softlock issue" 14 November 2018: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=154217936431300&w=2 We have all assumed that it is essential to hold a page reference while waiting on a page lock: partly to guarantee that there is still a struct page when MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is configured, but also to protect against reuse of the struct page going to someone who then holds the page locked indefinitely, when the waiter can reasonably expect timely unlocking. But in fact, so long as wait_on_page_bit_common() does the put_page(), and is careful not to rely on struct page contents thereafter, there is no need to hold a reference to the page while waiting on it. That does mean that this case cannot go back through the loop: but that's fine for the page migration case, and even if used more widely, is limited by the "Stop walking if it's locked" optimization in wake_page_function(). Add interface put_and_wait_on_page_locked() to do this, using "behavior" enum in place of "lock" arg to wait_on_page_bit_common() to implement it. No interruptible or killable variant needed yet, but they might follow: I have a vague notion that reporting -EINTR should take precedence over return from wait_on_page_bit_common() without knowing the page state, so arrange it accordingly - but that may be nothing but pedantic. __migration_entry_wait() still has to take a brief reference to the page, prior to calling put_and_wait_on_page_locked(): but now that it is dropped before waiting, the chance of impeding page migration is very much reduced. Should we perhaps disable preemption across this? shrink_page_list()'s __ClearPageLocked(): that was a surprise! This survived a lot of testing before that showed up. PageWaiters may have been set by wait_on_page_bit_common(), and the reference dropped, just before shrink_page_list() succeeds in freezing its last page reference: in such a case, unlock_page() must be used. Follow the suggestion from Michal Hocko, just revert a978d6f52106 ("mm: unlockless reclaim") now: that optimization predates PageWaiters, and won't buy much these days; but we can reinstate it for the !PageWaiters case if anyone notices. It does raise the question: should vmscan.c's is_page_cache_freeable() and __remove_mapping() now treat a PageWaiters page as if an extra reference were held? Perhaps, but I don't think it matters much, since shrink_page_list() already had to win its trylock_page(), so waiters are not very common there: I noticed no difference when trying the bigger change, and it's surely not needed while put_and_wait_on_page_locked() is only used for page migration.

Instead of reverting that change entirely, this introduces a controlled amount of unfairness, with a sysctl knob to tune it if somebody needs to.

There is also a hint from Matthieu Baerts that the fair page coloring may end up exposing an ABBA deadlock that is hidden by the usual optimistic lock stealing, and while the unfairness doesn't fix the fundamental issue (and I'm still looking at that), it avoids it in practice. The amount of unfairness can be modified by writing a new value to the 'sysctl_page_lock_unfairness' variable (default value of 5, exposed through /proc/sys/vm/page_lock_unfairness), but that is hopefully something we'd use mainly for debugging rather than being necessary for any deep system tuning. This whole issue has exposed just how critical the page lock can be, and how contended it gets under certain locks.

psi: pressure stall information for CPU, memory, and IO When systems are overcommitted and resources become contended, it's hard to tell exactly the impact this has on workload productivity, or how close the system is to lockups and OOM kills. In particular, when machines work multiple jobs concurrently, the impact of overcommit in terms of latency and throughput on the individual job can be enormous. In order to maximize hardware utilization without sacrificing individual job health or risk complete machine lockups, this patch implements a way to quantify resource pressure in the system. A kernel built with CONFIG_PSI=y creates files in /proc/pressure/ that expose the percentage of time the system is stalled on CPU, memory, or IO, respectively. Stall states are aggregate versions of the per-task delay accounting delays: cpu: some tasks are runnable but not executing on a CPU memory: tasks are reclaiming, or waiting for swapin or thrashing cache io: tasks are waiting for io completions These percentages of walltime can be thought of as pressure percentages, and they give a general sense of system health and productivity loss incurred by resource overcommit. They can also indicate when the system is approaching lockup scenarios and OOMs. To do this, psi keeps track of the task states associated with each CPU and samples the time they spend in stall states. Every 2 seconds, the samples are averaged across CPUs - weighted by the CPUs' non-idle time to eliminate artifacts from unused CPUs - and translated into percentages of walltime. A running average of those percentages is maintained over 10s, 1m, and 5m periods (similar to the loadaverage).

* NOTE! The wait->flags weren't stable until we've done the
* 'finish_wait()', and we could have exited the loop above due
* to a signal, and had a wakeup event happen after the signal
* test but before the 'finish_wait()'.
*
* So only after the finish_wait() can we reliably determine
* if we got woken up or not, so we can now figure out the final
* return value based on that state without races.
*
* Also note that WQ_FLAG_WOKEN is sufficient for a non-exclusive
* waiter, but an exclusive one requires WQ_FLAG_DONE.

mm: allow a controlled amount of unfairness in the page lock Commit 2a9127fcf229 ("mm: rewrite wait_on_page_bit_common() logic") made the page locking entirely fair, in that if a waiter came in while the lock was held, the lock would be transferred to the lockers strictly in order. That was intended to finally get rid of the long-reported watchdog failures that involved the page lock under extreme load, where a process could end up waiting essentially forever, as other page lockers stole the lock from under it. It also improved some benchmarks, but it ended up causing huge performance regressions on others, simply because fair lock behavior doesn't end up giving out the lock as aggressively, causing better worst-case latency, but potentially much worse average latencies and throughput. Instead of reverting that change entirely, this introduces a controlled amount of unfairness, with a sysctl knob to tune it if somebody needs to. But the default value should hopefully be good for any normal load, allowing a few rounds of lock stealing, but enforcing the strict ordering before the lock has been stolen too many times. There is also a hint from Matthieu Baerts that the fair page coloring may end up exposing an ABBA deadlock that is hidden by the usual optimistic lock stealing, and while the unfairness doesn't fix the fundamental issue (and I'm still looking at that), it avoids it in practice. The amount of unfairness can be modified by writing a new value to the 'sysctl_page_lock_unfairness' variable (default value of 5, exposed through /proc/sys/vm/page_lock_unfairness), but that is hopefully something we'd use mainly for debugging rather than being necessary for any deep system tuning. This whole issue has exposed just how critical the page lock can be, and how contended it gets under certain locks. And the main contention doesn't really seem to be anything related to IO (which was the origin of this lock), but for things like just verifying that the page file mapping is stable while faulting in the page into a page table.

mm: put_and_wait_on_page_locked() while page is migrated Waiting on a page migration entry has used wait_on_page_locked() all along since 2006: but you cannot safely wait_on_page_locked() without holding a reference to the page, and that extra reference is enough to make migrate_page_move_mapping() fail with -EAGAIN, when a racing task faults on the entry before migrate_page_move_mapping() gets there. And that failure is retried nine times, amplifying the pain when trying to migrate a popular page. With a single persistent faulter, migration sometimes succeeds; with two or three concurrent faulters, success becomes much less likely (and the more the page was mapped, the worse the overhead of unmapping and remapping it on each try). This is especially a problem for memory offlining, where the outer level retries forever (or until terminated from userspace), because a heavy refault workload can trigger an endless loop of migration failures. wait_on_page_locked() is the wrong tool for the job. David Herrmann (but was he the first?) noticed this issue in 2014: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=140110465608116&w=2 Tim Chen started a thread in August 2017 which appears relevant: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150275941014915&w=2 where Kan Liang went on to implicate __migration_entry_wait(): https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150300268411980&w=2 and the thread ended up with the v4.14 commits: 2554db916586 ("sched/wait: Break up long wake list walk") 11a19c7b099f ("sched/wait: Introduce wakeup boomark in wake_up_page_bit") Baoquan He reported "Memory hotplug softlock issue" 14 November 2018: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=154217936431300&w=2 We have all assumed that it is essential to hold a page reference while waiting on a page lock: partly to guarantee that there is still a struct page when MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is configured, but also to protect against reuse of the struct page going to someone who then holds the page locked indefinitely, when the waiter can reasonably expect timely unlocking. But in fact, so long as wait_on_page_bit_common() does the put_page(), and is careful not to rely on struct page contents thereafter, there is no need to hold a reference to the page while waiting on it. That does mean that this case cannot go back through the loop: but that's fine for the page migration case, and even if used more widely, is limited by the "Stop walking if it's locked" optimization in wake_page_function(). Add interface put_and_wait_on_page_locked() to do this, using "behavior" enum in place of "lock" arg to wait_on_page_bit_common() to implement it. No interruptible or killable variant needed yet, but they might follow: I have a vague notion that reporting -EINTR should take precedence over return from wait_on_page_bit_common() without knowing the page state, so arrange it accordingly - but that may be nothing but pedantic. __migration_entry_wait() still has to take a brief reference to the page, prior to calling put_and_wait_on_page_locked(): but now that it is dropped before waiting, the chance of impeding page migration is very much reduced. Should we perhaps disable preemption across this? shrink_page_list()'s __ClearPageLocked(): that was a surprise! This survived a lot of testing before that showed up. PageWaiters may have been set by wait_on_page_bit_common(), and the reference dropped, just before shrink_page_list() succeeds in freezing its last page reference: in such a case, unlock_page() must be used. Follow the suggestion from Michal Hocko, just revert a978d6f52106 ("mm: unlockless reclaim") now: that optimization predates PageWaiters, and won't buy much these days; but we can reinstate it for the !PageWaiters case if anyone notices. It does raise the question: should vmscan.c's is_page_cache_freeable() and __remove_mapping() now treat a PageWaiters page as if an extra reference were held? Perhaps, but I don't think it matters much, since shrink_page_list() already had to win its trylock_page(), so waiters are not very common there: I noticed no difference when trying the bigger change, and it's surely not needed while put_and_wait_on_page_locked() is only used for page migration.

And that failure is retried nine times, amplifying the pain when trying to migrate a popular page. With a single persistent faulter, migration sometimes succeeds; with two or three concurrent faulters, success becomes much less likely (and the more the page was mapped, the worse the overhead of unmapping and remapping it on each try). This is especially a problem for memory offlining, where the outer level retries forever (or until terminated from userspace), because a heavy refault workload can trigger an endless loop of migration failures. wait_on_page_locked() is the wrong tool for the job. David Herrmann (but was he the first?) noticed this issue in 2014: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=140110465608116&w=2 Tim Chen started a thread in August 2017 which appears relevant: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150275941014915&w=2 where Kan Liang went on to implicate __migration_entry_wait(): https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150300268411980&w=2 and the thread ended up with the v4.14 commits: 2554db916586 ("sched/wait: Break up long wake list walk") 11a19c7b099f ("sched/wait: Introduce wakeup boomark in wake_up_page_bit") Baoquan He reported "Memory hotplug softlock issue" 14 November 2018: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=154217936431300&w=2 We have all assumed that it is essential to hold a page reference while waiting on a page lock: partly to guarantee that there is still a struct page when MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is configured, but also to protect against reuse of the struct page going to someone who then holds the page locked indefinitely, when the waiter can reasonably expect timely unlocking. But in fact, so long as wait_on_page_bit_common() does the put_page(), and is careful not to rely on struct page contents thereafter, there is no need to hold a reference to the page while waiting on it. That does mean that this case cannot go back through the loop: but that's fine for the page migration case, and even if used more widely, is limited by the "Stop walking if it's locked" optimization in wake_page_function(). Add interface put_and_wait_on_page_locked() to do this, using "behavior" enum in place of "lock" arg to wait_on_page_bit_common() to implement it. No interruptible or killable variant needed yet, but they might follow: I have a vague notion that reporting -EINTR should take precedence over return from wait_on_page_bit_common() without knowing the page state, so arrange it accordingly - but that may be nothing but pedantic. __migration_entry_wait() still has to take a brief reference to the page, prior to calling put_and_wait_on_page_locked(): but now that it is dropped before waiting, the chance of impeding page migration is very much reduced. Should we perhaps disable preemption across this? shrink_page_list()'s __ClearPageLocked(): that was a surprise! This survived a lot of testing before that showed up. PageWaiters may have been set by wait_on_page_bit_common(), and the reference dropped, just before shrink_page_list() succeeds in freezing its last page reference: in such a case, unlock_page() must be used. Follow the suggestion from Michal Hocko, just revert a978d6f52106 ("mm: unlockless reclaim") now: that optimization predates PageWaiters, and won't buy much these days; but we can reinstate it for the !PageWaiters case if anyone notices. It does raise the question: should vmscan.c's is_page_cache_freeable() and __remove_mapping() now treat a PageWaiters page as if an extra reference were held? Perhaps, but I don't think it matters much, since shrink_page_list() already had to win its trylock_page(), so waiters are not very common there: I noticed no difference when trying the bigger change, and it's surely not needed while put_and_wait_on_page_locked() is only used for page migration.

mm: optimize PageWaiters bit use for unlock_page() In commit 62906027091f ("mm: add PageWaiters indicating tasks are waiting for a page bit") Nick Piggin made our page locking no longer unconditionally touch the hashed page waitqueue, which not only helps performance in general, but is particularly helpful on NUMA machines where the hashed wait queues can bounce around a lot. However, the "clear lock bit atomically and then test the waiters bit" sequence turns out to be much more expensive than it needs to be, because you get a nasty stall when trying to access the same word that just got updated atomically. On architectures where locking is done with LL/SC, this would be trivial to fix with a new primitive that clears one bit and tests another atomically, but that ends up not working on x86, where the only atomic operations that return the result end up being cmpxchg and xadd. The atomic bit operations return the old value of the same bit we changed, not the value of an unrelated bit. On x86, we could put the lock bit in the high bit of the byte, and use "xadd" with that bit (where the overflow ends up not touching other bits), and look at the other bits of the result. However, an even simpler model is to just use a regular atomic "and" to clear the lock bit, and then the sign bit in eflags will indicate the resulting state of the unrelated bit #7. So by moving the PageWaiters bit up to bit #7, we can atomically clear the lock bit and test the waiters bit on x86 too. And architectures with LL/SC (which is all the usual RISC suspects), the particular bit doesn't matter, so they are fine with this approach too. This avoids the extra access to the same atomic word, and thus avoids the costly stall at page unlock time. The only downside is that the interface ends up being a bit odd and specialized: clear a bit in a byte, and test the sign bit. Nick doesn't love the resulting name of the new primitive, but I'd rather make the name be descriptive and very clear about the limitation imposed by trying to work across all relevant architectures than make it be some generic thing that doesn't make the odd semantics explicit. So this introduces the new architecture primitive clear_bit_unlock_is_negative_byte(); and adds the trivial implementation for x86. We have a generic non-optimized fallback (that just does a "clear_bit()"+"test_bit(7)" combination) which can be overridden by any architecture that can do better. According to Nick, Power has the same hickup x86 has, for example, but some other architectures may not even care. All these optimizations mean that my page locking stress-test (which is just executing a lot of small short-lived shell scripts: "make test" in the git source tree) no longer makes our page locking look horribly bad. Before all these optimizations, just the unlock_page() costs were just over 3% of all CPU overhead on "make test". After this, it's down to 0.66%, so just a quarter of the cost it used to be. (The difference on NUMA is bigger, but there this micro-optimization is likely less noticeable, since the big issue on NUMA was not the accesses to 'struct page', but the waitqueue accesses that were already removed by Nick's earlier commit).

mm: optimize PageWaiters bit use for unlock_page() In commit 62906027091f ("mm: add PageWaiters indicating tasks are waiting for a page bit") Nick Piggin made our page locking no longer unconditionally touch the hashed page waitqueue, which not only helps performance in general, but is particularly helpful on NUMA machines where the hashed wait queues can bounce around a lot. However, the "clear lock bit atomically and then test the waiters bit" sequence turns out to be much more expensive than it needs to be, because you get a nasty stall when trying to access the same word that just got updated atomically. On architectures where locking is done with LL/SC, this would be trivial to fix with a new primitive that clears one bit and tests another atomically, but that ends up not working on x86, where the only atomic operations that return the result end up being cmpxchg and xadd. The atomic bit operations return the old value of the same bit we changed, not the value of an unrelated bit. On x86, we could put the lock bit in the high bit of the byte, and use "xadd" with that bit (where the overflow ends up not touching other bits), and look at the other bits of the result. However, an even simpler model is to just use a regular atomic "and" to clear the lock bit, and then the sign bit in eflags will indicate the resulting state of the unrelated bit #7. So by moving the PageWaiters bit up to bit #7, we can atomically clear the lock bit and test the waiters bit on x86 too. And architectures with LL/SC (which is all the usual RISC suspects), the particular bit doesn't matter, so they are fine with this approach too. This avoids the extra access to the same atomic word, and thus avoids the costly stall at page unlock time. The only downside is that the interface ends up being a bit odd and specialized: clear a bit in a byte, and test the sign bit. Nick doesn't love the resulting name of the new primitive, but I'd rather make the name be descriptive and very clear about the limitation imposed by trying to work across all relevant architectures than make it be some generic thing that doesn't make the odd semantics explicit. So this introduces the new architecture primitive clear_bit_unlock_is_negative_byte(); and adds the trivial implementation for x86. We have a generic non-optimized fallback (that just does a "clear_bit()"+"test_bit(7)" combination) which can be overridden by any architecture that can do better. According to Nick, Power has the same hickup x86 has, for example, but some other architectures may not even care. All these optimizations mean that my page locking stress-test (which is just executing a lot of small short-lived shell scripts: "make test" in the git source tree) no longer makes our page locking look horribly bad. Before all these optimizations, just the unlock_page() costs were just over 3% of all CPU overhead on "make test". After this, it's down to 0.66%, so just a quarter of the cost it used to be. (The difference on NUMA is bigger, but there this micro-optimization is likely less noticeable, since the big issue on NUMA was not the accesses to 'struct page', but the waitqueue accesses that were already removed by Nick's earlier commit).

mm: fix VM_BUG_ON(PageTail) and BUG_ON(PageWriteback) Twice now, when exercising ext4 looped on shmem huge pages, I have crashed on the PF_ONLY_HEAD check inside PageWaiters(): ext4_finish_bio() calling end_page_writeback() calling wake_up_page() on tail of a shmem huge page, no longer an ext4 page at all. The problem is that PageWriteback is not accompanied by a page reference (as the NOTE at the end of test_clear_page_writeback() acknowledges): as soon as TestClearPageWriteback has been done, that page could be removed from page cache, freed, and reused for something else by the time that wake_up_page() is reached. https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20200827122019.GC14765@casper.infradead.org/ Matthew Wilcox suggested avoiding or weakening the PageWaiters() tail check; but I'm paranoid about even looking at an unreferenced struct page, lest its memory might itself have already been reused or hotremoved (and wake_up_page_bit() may modify that memory with its ClearPageWaiters()). Then on crashing a second time, realized there's a stronger reason against that approach. If my testing just occasionally crashes on that check, when the page is reused for part of a compound page, wouldn't it be much more common for the page to get reused as an order-0 page before reaching wake_up_page()? And on rare occasions, might that reused page already be marked PageWriteback by its new user, and already be waited upon? What would that look like? It would look like BUG_ON(PageWriteback) after wait_on_page_writeback() in write_cache_pages() (though I have never seen that crash myself). Matthew Wilcox explaining this to himself: "page is allocated, added to page cache, dirtied, writeback starts, --- thread A --- filesystem calls end_page_writeback() test_clear_page_writeback() --- context switch to thread B --- truncate_inode_pages_range() finds the page, it doesn't have writeback set, we delete it from the page cache. Page gets reallocated, dirtied, writeback starts again. Then we call write_cache_pages(), see PageWriteback() set, call wait_on_page_writeback() --- context switch back to thread A --- wake_up_page(page, PG_writeback); ... thread B is woken, but because the wakeup was for the old use of the page, PageWriteback is still set. Devious" And prior to 2a9127fcf229 ("mm: rewrite wait_on_page_bit_common() logic") this would have been much less likely: before that, wake_page_function()'s non-exclusive case would stop walking and not wake if it found Writeback already set again; whereas now the non-exclusive case proceeds to wake. I have not thought of a fix that does not add a little overhead: the simplest fix is for end_page_writeback() to get_page() before calling test_clear_page_writeback(), then put_page() after wake_up_page(). Was there a chance of missed wakeups before, since a page freed before reaching wake_up_page() would have PageWaiters cleared? I think not, because each waiter does hold a reference on the page. This bug comes when the old use of the page, the one we do TestClearPageWriteback on, had *no* waiters, so no additional page reference beyond the page cache (and whoever racily freed it). The reuse of the page has a waiter holding a reference, and its own PageWriteback set; but the belated wake_up_page() has woken the reuse to hit that BUG_ON(PageWriteback).

mm: put_and_wait_on_page_locked() while page is migrated Waiting on a page migration entry has used wait_on_page_locked() all along since 2006: but you cannot safely wait_on_page_locked() without holding a reference to the page, and that extra reference is enough to make migrate_page_move_mapping() fail with -EAGAIN, when a racing task faults on the entry before migrate_page_move_mapping() gets there. And that failure is retried nine times, amplifying the pain when trying to migrate a popular page. With a single persistent faulter, migration sometimes succeeds; with two or three concurrent faulters, success becomes much less likely (and the more the page was mapped, the worse the overhead of unmapping and remapping it on each try). This is especially a problem for memory offlining, where the outer level retries forever (or until terminated from userspace), because a heavy refault workload can trigger an endless loop of migration failures. wait_on_page_locked() is the wrong tool for the job. David Herrmann (but was he the first?) noticed this issue in 2014: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=140110465608116&w=2 Tim Chen started a thread in August 2017 which appears relevant: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150275941014915&w=2 where Kan Liang went on to implicate __migration_entry_wait(): https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150300268411980&w=2 and the thread ended up with the v4.14 commits: 2554db916586 ("sched/wait: Break up long wake list walk") 11a19c7b099f ("sched/wait: Introduce wakeup boomark in wake_up_page_bit") Baoquan He reported "Memory hotplug softlock issue" 14 November 2018: https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=154217936431300&w=2 We have all assumed that it is essential to hold a page reference while waiting on a page lock: partly to guarantee that there is still a struct page when MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is configured, but also to protect against reuse of the struct page going to someone who then holds the page locked indefinitely, when the waiter can reasonably expect timely unlocking. But in fact, so long as wait_on_page_bit_common() does the put_page(), and is careful not to rely on struct page contents thereafter, there is no need to hold a reference to the page while waiting on it. That does mean that this case cannot go back through the loop: but that's fine for the page migration case, and even if used more widely, is limited by the "Stop walking if it's locked" optimization in wake_page_function(). Add interface put_and_wait_on_page_locked() to do this, using "behavior" enum in place of "lock" arg to wait_on_page_bit_common() to implement it. No interruptible or killable variant needed yet, but they might follow: I have a vague notion that reporting -EINTR should take precedence over return from wait_on_page_bit_common() without knowing the page state, so arrange it accordingly - but that may be nothing but pedantic. __migration_entry_wait() still has to take a brief reference to the page, prior to calling put_and_wait_on_page_locked(): but now that it is dropped before waiting, the chance of impeding page migration is very much reduced. Should we perhaps disable preemption across this? shrink_page_list()'s __ClearPageLocked(): that was a surprise! This survived a lot of testing before that showed up. PageWaiters may have been set by wait_on_page_bit_common(), and the reference dropped, just before shrink_page_list() succeeds in freezing its last page reference: in such a case, unlock_page() must be used. Follow the suggestion from Michal Hocko, just revert a978d6f52106 ("mm: unlockless reclaim") now: that optimization predates PageWaiters, and won't buy much these days; but we can reinstate it for the !PageWaiters case if anyone notices. It does raise the question: should vmscan.c's is_page_cache_freeable() and __remove_mapping() now treat a PageWaiters page as if an extra reference were held? Perhaps, but I don't think it matters much, since shrink_page_list() already had to win its trylock_page(), so waiters are not very common there: I noticed no difference when trying the bigger change, and it's surely not needed while put_and_wait_on_page_locked() is only used for page migration.

That does mean that this case cannot go back through the loop: but that's fine for the page migration case, and even if used more widely, is limited by the "Stop walking if it's locked" optimization in wake_page_function(). Add interface put_and_wait_on_page_locked() to do this, using "behavior" enum in place of "lock" arg to wait_on_page_bit_common() to implement it. No interruptible or killable variant needed yet, but they might follow: I have a vague notion that reporting -EINTR should take precedence over return from wait_on_page_bit_common() without knowing the page state, so arrange it accordingly - but that may be nothing but pedantic. __migration_entry_wait() still has to take a brief reference to the page, prior to calling put_and_wait_on_page_locked(): but now that it is dropped before waiting, the chance of impeding page migration is very much reduced. Should we perhaps disable preemption across this? shrink_page_list()'s __ClearPageLocked(): that was a surprise! This survived a lot of testing before that showed up. PageWaiters may have been set by wait_on_page_bit_common(), and the reference dropped, just before shrink_page_list() succeeds in freezing its last page reference: in such a case, unlock_page() must be used. Follow the suggestion from Michal Hocko, just revert a978d6f52106 ("mm: unlockless reclaim") now: that optimization predates PageWaiters, and won't buy much these days; but we can reinstate it for the !PageWaiters case if anyone notices. It does raise the question: should vmscan.c's is_page_cache_freeable() and __remove_mapping() now treat a PageWaiters page as if an extra reference were held? Perhaps, but I don't think it matters much, since shrink_page_list() already had to win its trylock_page(), so waiters are not very common there: I noticed no difference when trying the bigger change, and it's surely not needed while put_and_wait_on_page_locked() is only used for page migration.

mm: retry page fault when blocking on disk transfer This change reduces mmap_sem hold times that are caused by waiting for disk transfers when accessing file mapped VMAs. It introduces the VM_FAULT_ALLOW_RETRY flag, which indicates that the call site wants mmap_sem to be released if blocking on a pending disk transfer. In that case, filemap_fault() returns the VM_FAULT_RETRY status bit and do_page_fault() will then re-acquire mmap_sem and retry the page fault. It is expected that the retry will hit the same page which will now be cached, and thus it will complete with a low mmap_sem hold time. Tests: - microbenchmark: thread A mmaps a large file and does random read accesses to the mmaped area - achieves about 55 iterations/s. Thread B does mmap/munmap in a loop at a separate location - achieves 55 iterations/s before, 15000 iterations/s after. - We are seeing related effects in some applications in house, which show significant performance regressions when running without this change.

mm: allow VM_FAULT_RETRY for multiple times The idea comes from a discussion between Linus and Andrea [1]. Before this patch we only allow a page fault to retry once. We achieved this by clearing the FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY flag when doing handle_mm_fault() the second time. This was majorly used to avoid unexpected starvation of the system by looping over forever to handle the page fault on a single page. However that should hardly happen, and after all for each code path to return a VM_FAULT_RETRY we'll first wait for a condition (during which time we should possibly yield the cpu) to happen before VM_FAULT_RETRY is really returned. This patch removes the restriction by keeping the FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY flag when we receive VM_FAULT_RETRY. It means that the page fault handler now can retry the page fault for multiple times if necessary without the need to generate another page fault event. Meanwhile we still keep the FAULT_FLAG_TRIED flag so page fault handler can still identify whether a page fault is the first attempt or not. Then we'll have these combinations of fault flags (only considering ALLOW_RETRY flag and TRIED flag): - ALLOW_RETRY and !TRIED: this means the page fault allows to retry, and this is the first try - ALLOW_RETRY and TRIED: this means the page fault allows to retry, and this is not the first try - !ALLOW_RETRY and !TRIED: this means the page fault does not allow to retry at all - !ALLOW_RETRY and TRIED: this is forbidden and should never be used In existing code we have multiple places that has taken special care of the first condition above by checking against (fault_flags & FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY). This patch introduces a simple helper to detect the first retry of a page fault by checking against both (fault_flags & FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY) and !(fault_flag & FAULT_FLAG_TRIED) because now even the 2nd try will have the ALLOW_RETRY set, then use that helper in all existing special paths. One example is in __lock_page_or_retry(), now we'll drop the mmap_sem only in the first attempt of page fault and we'll keep it in follow up retries, so old locking behavior will be retained. This will be a nice enhancement for current code [2] at the same time a supporting material for the future userfaultfd-writeprotect work, since in that work there will always be an explicit userfault writeprotect retry for protected pages, and if that cannot resolve the page fault (e.g., when userfaultfd-writeprotect is used in conjunction with swapped pages) then we'll possibly need a 3rd retry of the page fault. It might also benefit other potential users who will have similar requirement like userfault write-protection. GUP code is not touched yet and will be covered in follow up patch.

mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

mm: non-atomically mark page accessed during page cache allocation where possible aops->write_begin may allocate a new page and make it visible only to have mark_page_accessed called almost immediately after. Once the page is visible the atomic operations are necessary which is noticable overhead when writing to an in-memory filesystem like tmpfs but should also be noticable with fast storage. The objective of the patch is to initialse the accessed information with non-atomic operations before the page is visible. The bulk of filesystems directly or indirectly use grab_cache_page_write_begin or find_or_create_page for the initial allocation of a page cache page. This patch adds an init_page_accessed() helper which behaves like the first call to mark_page_accessed() but may called before the page is visible and can be done non-atomically. The primary APIs of concern in this care are the following and are used by most filesystems. find_get_page find_lock_page find_or_create_page grab_cache_page_nowait grab_cache_page_write_begin All of them are very similar in detail to the patch creates a core helper pagecache_get_page() which takes a flags parameter that affects its behavior such as whether the page should be marked accessed or not. Then old API is preserved but is basically a thin wrapper around this core function. Each of the filesystems are then updated to avoid calling mark_page_accessed when it is known that the VM interfaces have already done the job. There is a slight snag in that the timing of the mark_page_accessed() has now changed so in rare cases it's possible a page gets to the end of the LRU as PageReferenced where as previously it might have been repromoted. This is expected to be rare but it's worth the filesystem people thinking about it in case they see a problem with the timing change. It is also the case that some filesystems may be marking pages accessed that previously did not but it makes sense that filesystems have consistent behaviour in this regard. The test case used to evaulate this is a simple dd of a large file done multiple times with the file deleted on each iterations. The size of the file is 1/10th physical memory to avoid dirty page balancing. In the async case it will be possible that the workload completes without even hitting the disk and will have variable results but highlight the impact of mark_page_accessed for async IO. The sync results are expected to be more stable. The exception is tmpfs where the normal case is for the "IO" to not hit the disk. The test machine was single socket and UMA to avoid any scheduling or NUMA artifacts. Throughput and wall times are presented for sync IO, only wall times are shown for async as the granularity reported by dd and the variability is unsuitable for comparison. As async results were variable do to writback timings, I'm only reporting the maximum figures. The sync results were stable enough to make the mean and stddev uninteresting.

mm: non-atomically mark page accessed during page cache allocation where possible aops->write_begin may allocate a new page and make it visible only to have mark_page_accessed called almost immediately after. Once the page is visible the atomic operations are necessary which is noticable overhead when writing to an in-memory filesystem like tmpfs but should also be noticable with fast storage. The objective of the patch is to initialse the accessed information with non-atomic operations before the page is visible. The bulk of filesystems directly or indirectly use grab_cache_page_write_begin or find_or_create_page for the initial allocation of a page cache page. This patch adds an init_page_accessed() helper which behaves like the first call to mark_page_accessed() but may called before the page is visible and can be done non-atomically. The primary APIs of concern in this care are the following and are used by most filesystems. find_get_page find_lock_page find_or_create_page grab_cache_page_nowait grab_cache_page_write_begin All of them are very similar in detail to the patch creates a core helper pagecache_get_page() which takes a flags parameter that affects its behavior such as whether the page should be marked accessed or not. Then old API is preserved but is basically a thin wrapper around this core function. Each of the filesystems are then updated to avoid calling mark_page_accessed when it is known that the VM interfaces have already done the job. There is a slight snag in that the timing of the mark_page_accessed() has now changed so in rare cases it's possible a page gets to the end of the LRU as PageReferenced where as previously it might have been repromoted. This is expected to be rare but it's worth the filesystem people thinking about it in case they see a problem with the timing change. It is also the case that some filesystems may be marking pages accessed that previously did not but it makes sense that filesystems have consistent behaviour in this regard. The test case used to evaulate this is a simple dd of a large file done multiple times with the file deleted on each iterations. The size of the file is 1/10th physical memory to avoid dirty page balancing. In the async case it will be possible that the workload completes without even hitting the disk and will have variable results but highlight the impact of mark_page_accessed for async IO. The sync results are expected to be more stable. The exception is tmpfs where the normal case is for the "IO" to not hit the disk. The test machine was single socket and UMA to avoid any scheduling or NUMA artifacts.

The primary APIs of concern in this care are the following and are used by most filesystems. find_get_page find_lock_page find_or_create_page grab_cache_page_nowait grab_cache_page_write_begin All of them are very similar in detail to the patch creates a core helper pagecache_get_page() which takes a flags parameter that affects its behavior such as whether the page should be marked accessed or not. Then old API is preserved but is basically a thin wrapper around this core function. Each of the filesystems are then updated to avoid calling mark_page_accessed when it is known that the VM interfaces have already done the job. There is a slight snag in that the timing of the mark_page_accessed() has now changed so in rare cases it's possible a page gets to the end of the LRU as PageReferenced where as previously it might have been repromoted. This is expected to be rare but it's worth the filesystem people thinking about it in case they see a problem with the timing change. It is also the case that some filesystems may be marking pages accessed that previously did not but it makes sense that filesystems have consistent behaviour in this regard. The test case used to evaulate this is a simple dd of a large file done multiple times with the file deleted on each iterations. The size of the file is 1/10th physical memory to avoid dirty page balancing. In the async case it will be possible that the workload completes without even hitting the disk and will have variable results but highlight the impact of mark_page_accessed for async IO. The sync results are expected to be more stable. The exception is tmpfs where the normal case is for the "IO" to not hit the disk. The test machine was single socket and UMA to avoid any scheduling or NUMA artifacts. Throughput and wall times are presented for sync IO, only wall times are shown for async as the granularity reported by dd and the variability is unsuitable for comparison. As async results were variable do to writback timings, I'm only reporting the maximum figures. The sync results were stable enough to make the mean and stddev uninteresting.

mm: non-atomically mark page accessed during page cache allocation where possible aops->write_begin may allocate a new page and make it visible only to have mark_page_accessed called almost immediately after. Once the page is visible the atomic operations are necessary which is noticable overhead when writing to an in-memory filesystem like tmpfs but should also be noticable with fast storage. The objective of the patch is to initialse the accessed information with non-atomic operations before the page is visible. The bulk of filesystems directly or indirectly use grab_cache_page_write_begin or find_or_create_page for the initial allocation of a page cache page. This patch adds an init_page_accessed() helper which behaves like the first call to mark_page_accessed() but may called before the page is visible and can be done non-atomically. The primary APIs of concern in this care are the following and are used by most filesystems. find_get_page find_lock_page find_or_create_page grab_cache_page_nowait grab_cache_page_write_begin All of them are very similar in detail to the patch creates a core helper pagecache_get_page() which takes a flags parameter that affects its behavior such as whether the page should be marked accessed or not. Then old API is preserved but is basically a thin wrapper around this core function. Each of the filesystems are then updated to avoid calling mark_page_accessed when it is known that the VM interfaces have already done the job. There is a slight snag in that the timing of the mark_page_accessed() has now changed so in rare cases it's possible a page gets to the end of the LRU as PageReferenced where as previously it might have been repromoted. This is expected to be rare but it's worth the filesystem people thinking about it in case they see a problem with the timing change. It is also the case that some filesystems may be marking pages accessed that previously did not but it makes sense that filesystems have consistent behaviour in this regard. The test case used to evaulate this is a simple dd of a large file done multiple times with the file deleted on each iterations. The size of the file is 1/10th physical memory to avoid dirty page balancing. In the async case it will be possible that the workload completes without even hitting the disk and will have variable results but highlight the impact of mark_page_accessed for async IO. The sync results are expected to be more stable. The exception is tmpfs where the normal case is for the "IO" to not hit the disk.

filemap: kill page_cache_read usage in filemap_fault Patch series "drop the mmap_sem when doing IO in the fault path", v6. Now that we have proper isolation in place with cgroups2 we have started going through and fixing the various priority inversions. Most are all gone now, but this one is sort of weird since it's not necessarily a priority inversion that happens within the kernel, but rather because of something userspace does. We have giant applications that we want to protect, and parts of these giant applications do things like watch the system state to determine how healthy the box is for load balancing and such. This involves running 'ps' or other such utilities. These utilities will often walk /proc/<pid>/whatever, and these files can sometimes need to down_read(&task->mmap_sem). Not usually a big deal, but we noticed when we are stress testing that sometimes our protected application has latency spikes trying to get the mmap_sem for tasks that are in lower priority cgroups. This is because any down_write() on a semaphore essentially turns it into a mutex, so even if we currently have it held for reading, any new readers will not be allowed on to keep from starving the writer. This is fine, except a lower priority task could be stuck doing IO because it has been throttled to the point that its IO is taking much longer than normal. But because a higher priority group depends on this completing it is now stuck behind lower priority work. In order to avoid this particular priority inversion we want to use the existing retry mechanism to stop from holding the mmap_sem at all if we are going to do IO. This already exists in the read case sort of, but needed to be extended for more than just grabbing the page lock. With io.latency we throttle at submit_bio() time, so the readahead stuff can block and even page_cache_read can block, so all these paths need to have the mmap_sem dropped. The other big thing is ->page_mkwrite. btrfs is particularly shitty here because we have to reserve space for the dirty page, which can be a very expensive operation. We use the same retry method as the read path, and simply cache the page and verify the page is still setup properly the next pass through ->page_mkwrite(). I've tested these patches with xfstests and there are no regressions. This patch (of 3): If we do not have a page at filemap_fault time we'll do this weird forced page_cache_read thing to populate the page, and then drop it again and loop around and find it. This makes for 2 ways we can read a page in filemap_fault, and it's not really needed. Instead add a FGP_FOR_MMAP flag so that pagecache_get_page() will return a unlocked page that's in pagecache. Then use the normal page locking and readpage logic already in filemap_fault. This simplifies the no page in page cache case significantly.

mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

filemap: kill page_cache_read usage in filemap_fault Patch series "drop the mmap_sem when doing IO in the fault path", v6. Now that we have proper isolation in place with cgroups2 we have started going through and fixing the various priority inversions. Most are all gone now, but this one is sort of weird since it's not necessarily a priority inversion that happens within the kernel, but rather because of something userspace does. We have giant applications that we want to protect, and parts of these giant applications do things like watch the system state to determine how healthy the box is for load balancing and such. This involves running 'ps' or other such utilities. These utilities will often walk /proc/<pid>/whatever, and these files can sometimes need to down_read(&task->mmap_sem). Not usually a big deal, but we noticed when we are stress testing that sometimes our protected application has latency spikes trying to get the mmap_sem for tasks that are in lower priority cgroups. This is because any down_write() on a semaphore essentially turns it into a mutex, so even if we currently have it held for reading, any new readers will not be allowed on to keep from starving the writer. This is fine, except a lower priority task could be stuck doing IO because it has been throttled to the point that its IO is taking much longer than normal. But because a higher priority group depends on this completing it is now stuck behind lower priority work. In order to avoid this particular priority inversion we want to use the existing retry mechanism to stop from holding the mmap_sem at all if we are going to do IO. This already exists in the read case sort of, but needed to be extended for more than just grabbing the page lock. With io.latency we throttle at submit_bio() time, so the readahead stuff can block and even page_cache_read can block, so all these paths need to have the mmap_sem dropped. The other big thing is ->page_mkwrite. btrfs is particularly shitty here because we have to reserve space for the dirty page, which can be a very expensive operation. We use the same retry method as the read path, and simply cache the page and verify the page is still setup properly the next pass through ->page_mkwrite(). I've tested these patches with xfstests and there are no regressions. This patch (of 3): If we do not have a page at filemap_fault time we'll do this weird forced page_cache_read thing to populate the page, and then drop it again and loop around and find it. This makes for 2 ways we can read a page in filemap_fault, and it's not really needed. Instead add a FGP_FOR_MMAP flag so that pagecache_get_page() will return a unlocked page that's in pagecache. Then use the normal page locking and readpage logic already in filemap_fault. This simplifies the no page in page cache case significantly.

mm: non-atomically mark page accessed during page cache allocation where possible aops->write_begin may allocate a new page and make it visible only to have mark_page_accessed called almost immediately after. Once the page is visible the atomic operations are necessary which is noticable overhead when writing to an in-memory filesystem like tmpfs but should also be noticable with fast storage. The objective of the patch is to initialse the accessed information with non-atomic operations before the page is visible. The bulk of filesystems directly or indirectly use grab_cache_page_write_begin or find_or_create_page for the initial allocation of a page cache page. This patch adds an init_page_accessed() helper which behaves like the first call to mark_page_accessed() but may called before the page is visible and can be done non-atomically. The primary APIs of concern in this care are the following and are used by most filesystems. find_get_page find_lock_page find_or_create_page grab_cache_page_nowait grab_cache_page_write_begin All of them are very similar in detail to the patch creates a core helper pagecache_get_page() which takes a flags parameter that affects its behavior such as whether the page should be marked accessed or not. Then old API is preserved but is basically a thin wrapper around this core function. Each of the filesystems are then updated to avoid calling mark_page_accessed when it is known that the VM interfaces have already done the job. There is a slight snag in that the timing of the mark_page_accessed() has now changed so in rare cases it's possible a page gets to the end of the LRU as PageReferenced where as previously it might have been repromoted. This is expected to be rare but it's worth the filesystem people thinking about it in case they see a problem with the timing change.

However, as Hugh Dickins notes, "it is truly surprising for a PAGECACHE_TAG_WRITEBACK (and probably any other PAGECACHE_TAG_*) to appear on an exceptional entry. I expect it comes down to an occasional race in RCU lookup of the radix_tree: lacking absolute synchronization, we might sometimes catch an exceptional entry, with the tag which really belongs with the unexceptional entry which was there an instant before." And indeed, not only is the tree walk lockless, the tags are also read in chunks, one radix tree node at a time. There is plenty of time for page reclaim to swoop in and replace a page that was already looked up as tagged with a shadow entry. Remove the BUG() and update the comment. While reviewing all other lookup sites for whether they properly deal with shadow entries of evicted pages, update all the comments and fix memcg file charge moving to not miss shmem/tmpfs swapcache pages.

mm: huge tmpfs: try to split_huge_page() when punching hole Yang Shi writes: Currently, when truncating a shmem file, if the range is partly in a THP (start or end is in the middle of THP), the pages actually will just get cleared rather than being freed, unless the range covers the whole THP. Even though all the subpages are truncated (randomly or sequentially), the THP may still be kept in page cache. This might be fine for some usecases which prefer preserving THP, but balloon inflation is handled in base page size. So when using shmem THP as memory backend, QEMU inflation actually doesn't work as expected since it doesn't free memory. But the inflation usecase really needs to get the memory freed. (Anonymous THP will also not get freed right away, but will be freed eventually when all subpages are unmapped: whereas shmem THP still stays in page cache.) Split THP right away when doing partial hole punch, and if split fails just clear the page so that read of the punched area will return zeroes. Hugh Dickins adds: Our earlier "team of pages" huge tmpfs implementation worked in the way that Yang Shi proposes; and we have been using this patch to continue to split the huge page when hole-punched or truncated, since converting over to the compound page implementation. Although huge tmpfs gives out huge pages when available, if the user specifically asks to truncate or punch a hole (perhaps to free memory, perhaps to reduce the memcg charge), then the filesystem should do so as best it can, splitting the huge page. That is not always possible: any additional reference to the huge page prevents split_huge_page() from succeeding, so the result can be flaky. But in practice it works successfully enough that we've not seen any problem from that. Add shmem_punch_compound() to encapsulate the decision of when a split is needed, and doing the split if so. Using this simplifies the flow in shmem_undo_range(); and the first (trylock) pass does not need to do any page clearing on failure, because the second pass will either succeed or do that clearing. Following the example of zero_user_segment() when clearing a partial page, add flush_dcache_page() and set_page_dirty() when clearing a hole - though I'm not certain that either is needed. But: split_huge_page() would be sure to fail if shmem_undo_range()'s pagevec holds further references to the huge page. The easiest way to fix that is for find_get_entries() to return early, as soon as it has put one compound head or tail into the pagevec.

mm: huge tmpfs: try to split_huge_page() when punching hole Yang Shi writes: Currently, when truncating a shmem file, if the range is partly in a THP (start or end is in the middle of THP), the pages actually will just get cleared rather than being freed, unless the range covers the whole THP. Even though all the subpages are truncated (randomly or sequentially), the THP may still be kept in page cache. This might be fine for some usecases which prefer preserving THP, but balloon inflation is handled in base page size. So when using shmem THP as memory backend, QEMU inflation actually doesn't work as expected since it doesn't free memory. But the inflation usecase really needs to get the memory freed. (Anonymous THP will also not get freed right away, but will be freed eventually when all subpages are unmapped: whereas shmem THP still stays in page cache.) Split THP right away when doing partial hole punch, and if split fails just clear the page so that read of the punched area will return zeroes. Hugh Dickins adds: Our earlier "team of pages" huge tmpfs implementation worked in the way that Yang Shi proposes; and we have been using this patch to continue to split the huge page when hole-punched or truncated, since converting over to the compound page implementation. Although huge tmpfs gives out huge pages when available, if the user specifically asks to truncate or punch a hole (perhaps to free memory, perhaps to reduce the memcg charge), then the filesystem should do so as best it can, splitting the huge page. That is not always possible: any additional reference to the huge page prevents split_huge_page() from succeeding, so the result can be flaky. But in practice it works successfully enough that we've not seen any problem from that. Add shmem_punch_compound() to encapsulate the decision of when a split is needed, and doing the split if so. Using this simplifies the flow in shmem_undo_range(); and the first (trylock) pass does not need to do any page clearing on failure, because the second pass will either succeed or do that clearing. Following the example of zero_user_segment() when clearing a partial page, add flush_dcache_page() and set_page_dirty() when clearing a hole - though I'm not certain that either is needed. But: split_huge_page() would be sure to fail if shmem_undo_range()'s pagevec holds further references to the huge page.

However, as Hugh Dickins notes, "it is truly surprising for a PAGECACHE_TAG_WRITEBACK (and probably any other PAGECACHE_TAG_*) to appear on an exceptional entry. I expect it comes down to an occasional race in RCU lookup of the radix_tree: lacking absolute synchronization, we might sometimes catch an exceptional entry, with the tag which really belongs with the unexceptional entry which was there an instant before." And indeed, not only is the tree walk lockless, the tags are also read in chunks, one radix tree node at a time. There is plenty of time for page reclaim to swoop in and replace a page that was already looked up as tagged with a shadow entry. Remove the BUG() and update the comment. While reviewing all other lookup sites for whether they properly deal with shadow entries of evicted pages, update all the comments and fix memcg file charge moving to not miss shmem/tmpfs swapcache pages.

[PATCH] readahead: backoff on I/O error Backoff readahead size exponentially on I/O error. Michael Tokarev <mjt@tls.msk.ru> described the problem as: [QUOTE] Suppose there's a CD-rom with a scratch/etc, one sector is unreadable. In order to "fix" it, one have to read it and write to another CD-rom, or something.. or just ignore the error (if it's just a skip in a video stream). Let's assume the unreadable block is number U. But current behavior is just insane. An application requests block number N, which is before U. Kernel tries to read-ahead blocks N..U. Cdrom drive tries to read it, re-read it.. for some time. Finally, when all the N..U-1 blocks are read, kernel returns block number N (as requested) to an application, successefully. Now an app requests block number N+1, and kernel tries to read blocks N+1..U+1. Retrying again as in previous step. And so on, up to when an app requests block number U-1. And when, finally, it requests block U, it receives read error. So, kernel currentry tries to re-read the same failing block as many times as the current readahead value (256 (times?) by default). This whole process already killed my cdrom drive (I posted about it to LKML several months ago) - literally, the drive has fried, and does not work anymore. Ofcourse that problem was a bug in firmware (or whatever) of the drive *too*, but.. main problem with that is current readahead logic as described above. [/QUOTE] Which was confirmed by Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>: [QUOTE] For ide-cd, it tends do only end the first part of the request on a medium error.

Fix race when checking i_size on direct i/o read So far I've had one ACK for this, and no other comments. So I think it is probably time to send this via some suitable tree. I'm guessing that the vfs tree would be the most appropriate route, but not sure that there is one at the moment (don't see anything recent at kernel.org) so in that case I think -mm is the "back up plan". Al, please let me know if you will take this? Steve. --------------------- Following on from the "Re: [PATCH v3] vfs: fix a bug when we do some dio reads with append dio writes" thread on linux-fsdevel, this patch is my current version of the fix proposed as option (b) in that thread. Removing the i_size test from the direct i/o read path at vfs level means that filesystems now have to deal with requests which are beyond i_size themselves. These I've divided into three sets: a) Those with "no op" ->direct_IO (9p, cifs, ceph) These are obviously not going to be an issue b) Those with "home brew" ->direct_IO (nfs, fuse) I've been told that NFS should not have any problem with the larger i_size, however I've added an extra test to FUSE to duplicate the original behaviour just to be on the safe side. c) Those using __blockdev_direct_IO() These call through to ->get_block() which should deal with the EOF condition correctly. I've verified that with GFS2 and I believe that Zheng has verified it for ext4. I've also run the test on XFS and it passes both before and after this change. The part of the patch in filemap.c looks a lot larger than it really is - there are only two lines of real change. The rest is just indentation of the contained code. There remains a test of i_size though, which was added for btrfs. It doesn't cause the other filesystems a problem as the test is performed after ->direct_IO has been called. It is possible that there is a race that does matter to btrfs, however this patch doesn't change that, so its still an overall improvement.

filemap: drop the mmap_sem for all blocking operations Currently we only drop the mmap_sem if there is contention on the page lock. The idea is that we issue readahead and then go to lock the page while it is under IO and we want to not hold the mmap_sem during the IO. The problem with this is the assumption that the readahead does anything. In the case that the box is under extreme memory or IO pressure we may end up not reading anything at all for readahead, which means we will end up reading in the page under the mmap_sem.

filemap: drop the mmap_sem for all blocking operations Currently we only drop the mmap_sem if there is contention on the page lock. The idea is that we issue readahead and then go to lock the page while it is under IO and we want to not hold the mmap_sem during the IO. The problem with this is the assumption that the readahead does anything. In the case that the box is under extreme memory or IO pressure we may end up not reading anything at all for readahead, which means we will end up reading in the page under the mmap_sem. Even if the readahead does something, it could get throttled because of io pressure on the system and the process is in a lower priority cgroup. Holding the mmap_sem while doing IO is problematic because it can cause system-wide priority inversions. Consider some large company that does a lot of web traffic. This large company has load balancing logic in it's core web server, cause some engineer thought this was a brilliant plan. This load balancing logic gets statistics from /proc about the system, which trip over processes mmap_sem for various reasons. Now the web server application is in a protected cgroup, but these other processes may not be, and if they are being throttled while their mmap_sem is held we'll stall, and cause this nice death spiral. Instead rework filemap fault path to drop the mmap sem at any point that we may do IO or block for an extended period of time. This includes while issuing readahead, locking the page, or needing to call ->readpage because readahead did not occur. Then once we have a fully uptodate page we can return with VM_FAULT_RETRY and come back again to find our nicely in-cache page that was gotten outside of the mmap_sem. This patch also adds a new helper for locking the page with the mmap_sem dropped. This doesn't make sense currently as generally speaking if the page is already locked it'll have been read in (unless there was an error) before it was unlocked. However a forthcoming patchset will change this with the ability to abort read-ahead bio's if necessary, making it more likely that we could contend for a page lock and still have a not uptodate page.

filemap: drop the mmap_sem for all blocking operations Currently we only drop the mmap_sem if there is contention on the page lock. The idea is that we issue readahead and then go to lock the page while it is under IO and we want to not hold the mmap_sem during the IO. The problem with this is the assumption that the readahead does anything. In the case that the box is under extreme memory or IO pressure we may end up not reading anything at all for readahead, which means we will end up reading in the page under the mmap_sem. Even if the readahead does something, it could get throttled because of io pressure on the system and the process is in a lower priority cgroup. Holding the mmap_sem while doing IO is problematic because it can cause system-wide priority inversions. Consider some large company that does a lot of web traffic. This large company has load balancing logic in it's core web server, cause some engineer thought this was a brilliant plan. This load balancing logic gets statistics from /proc about the system, which trip over processes mmap_sem for various reasons. Now the web server application is in a protected cgroup, but these other processes may not be, and if they are being throttled while their mmap_sem is held we'll stall, and cause this nice death spiral. Instead rework filemap fault path to drop the mmap sem at any point that we may do IO or block for an extended period of time. This includes while issuing readahead, locking the page, or needing to call ->readpage because readahead did not occur. Then once we have a fully uptodate page we can return with VM_FAULT_RETRY and come back again to find our nicely in-cache page that was gotten outside of the mmap_sem. This patch also adds a new helper for locking the page with the mmap_sem dropped. This doesn't make sense currently as generally speaking if the page is already locked it'll have been read in (unless there was an error) before it was unlocked. However a forthcoming patchset will change this with the ability to abort read-ahead bio's if necessary, making it more likely that we could contend for a page lock and still have a not uptodate page.

mm: use only per-device readahead limit Maximal readahead size is limited now by two values: 1) by global 2Mb constant (MAX_READAHEAD in max_sane_readahead()) 2) by configurable per-device value* (bdi->ra_pages) There are devices, which require custom readahead limit. For instance, for RAIDs it's calculated as number of devices multiplied by chunk size times 2. Readahead size can never be larger than bdi->ra_pages * 2 value (POSIX_FADV_SEQUNTIAL doubles readahead size). If so, why do we need two limits? I suggest to completely remove this max_sane_readahead() stuff and use per-device readahead limit everywhere. Also, using right readahead size for RAID disks can significantly increase i/o performance: before: dd if=/dev/md2 of=/dev/null bs=100M count=100 100+0 records in 100+0 records out 10485760000 bytes (10 GB) copied, 12.9741 s, 808 MB/s after: $ dd if=/dev/md2 of=/dev/null bs=100M count=100 100+0 records in 100+0 records out 10485760000 bytes (10 GB) copied, 8.91317 s, 1.2 GB/s (It's an 8-disks RAID5 storage). This patch doesn't change sys_readahead and madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) behavior introduced by 6d2be915e589b58 ("mm/readahead.c: fix readahead failure for memoryless NUMA nodes and limit readahead pages").

This doesn't make sense currently as generally speaking if the page is already locked it'll have been read in (unless there was an error) before it was unlocked. However a forthcoming patchset will change this with the ability to abort read-ahead bio's if necessary, making it more likely that we could contend for a page lock and still have a not uptodate page. This allows us to deal with this case by grabbing the lock and issuing the IO without the mmap_sem held, and then returning VM_FAULT_RETRY to come back around.

readahead: enforce full readahead size on async mmap readahead We need this in one particular case and two more general ones. Now we do async readahead for sequential mmap reads, and do it with the help of PG_readahead. For normal reads, PG_readahead is the sufficient condition to do a sequential readahead. But unfortunately, for mmap reads, there is a tiny nuisance: [11736.998347] readahead-init0(process: sh/23926, file: sda1/w3m, offset=0:4503599627370495, ra=0+4-3) = 4 [11737.014985] readahead-around(process: w3m/23926, file: sda1/w3m, offset=0:0, ra=290+32-0) = 17 [11737.019488] readahead-around(process: w3m/23926, file: sda1/w3m, offset=0:0, ra=118+32-0) = 32 [11737.024921] readahead-interleaved(process: w3m/23926, file: sda1/w3m, offset=0:2, ra=4+6-6) = 6 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ An unfavorably small readahead. The original dumb read-around size could be more efficient. That happened because ld-linux.so does a read(832) in L1 before mmap(), which triggers a 4-page readahead, with the second page tagged PG_readahead. L0: open("/lib/libc.so.6", O_RDONLY) = 3 L1: read(3, "\177ELF\2\1\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\3\0>\0\1\0\0\0\340\342"..., 832) = 832 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ L2: fstat(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0755, st_size=1420624, ...}) = 0 L3: mmap(NULL, 3527256, PROT_READ|PROT_EXEC, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_DENYWRITE, 3, 0) = 0x7fac6e51d000 L4: mprotect(0x7fac6e671000, 2097152, PROT_NONE) = 0 L5: mmap(0x7fac6e871000, 20480, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED|MAP_DENYWRITE, 3, 0x154000) = 0x7fac6e871000 L6: mmap(0x7fac6e876000, 16984, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x7fac6e876000 L7: close(3) = 0 In general, the PG_readahead flag will also be hit in cases - sequential reads - clustered random reads A full readahead size is desirable in both cases.

mm: merge populate and nopage into fault (fixes nonlinear) Nonlinear mappings are (AFAIKS) simply a virtual memory concept that encodes the virtual address -> file offset differently from linear mappings. ->populate is a layering violation because the filesystem/pagecache code should need to know anything about the virtual memory mapping. The hitch here is that the ->nopage handler didn't pass down enough information (ie. pgoff). But it is more logical to pass pgoff rather than have the ->nopage function calculate it itself anyway (because that's a similar layering violation). Having the populate handler install the pte itself is likewise a nasty thing to be doing. This patch introduces a new fault handler that replaces ->nopage and ->populate and (later) ->nopfn. Most of the old mechanism is still in place so there is a lot of duplication and nice cleanups that can be removed if everyone switches over. The rationale for doing this in the first place is that nonlinear mappings are subject to the pagefault vs invalidate/truncate race too, and it seemed stupid to duplicate the synchronisation logic rather than just consolidate the two. After this patch, MAP_NONBLOCK no longer sets up ptes for pages present in pagecache. Seems like a fringe functionality anyway. NOPAGE_REFAULT is removed.

filemap: drop the mmap_sem for all blocking operations Currently we only drop the mmap_sem if there is contention on the page lock. The idea is that we issue readahead and then go to lock the page while it is under IO and we want to not hold the mmap_sem during the IO. The problem with this is the assumption that the readahead does anything. In the case that the box is under extreme memory or IO pressure we may end up not reading anything at all for readahead, which means we will end up reading in the page under the mmap_sem. Even if the readahead does something, it could get throttled because of io pressure on the system and the process is in a lower priority cgroup. Holding the mmap_sem while doing IO is problematic because it can cause system-wide priority inversions. Consider some large company that does a lot of web traffic. This large company has load balancing logic in it's core web server, cause some engineer thought this was a brilliant plan. This load balancing logic gets statistics from /proc about the system, which trip over processes mmap_sem for various reasons.

filemap: kill page_cache_read usage in filemap_fault Patch series "drop the mmap_sem when doing IO in the fault path", v6. Now that we have proper isolation in place with cgroups2 we have started going through and fixing the various priority inversions. Most are all gone now, but this one is sort of weird since it's not necessarily a priority inversion that happens within the kernel, but rather because of something userspace does. We have giant applications that we want to protect, and parts of these giant applications do things like watch the system state to determine how healthy the box is for load balancing and such. This involves running 'ps' or other such utilities. These utilities will often walk /proc/<pid>/whatever, and these files can sometimes need to down_read(&task->mmap_sem). Not usually a big deal, but we noticed when we are stress testing that sometimes our protected application has latency spikes trying to get the mmap_sem for tasks that are in lower priority cgroups. This is because any down_write() on a semaphore essentially turns it into a mutex, so even if we currently have it held for reading, any new readers will not be allowed on to keep from starving the writer. This is fine, except a lower priority task could be stuck doing IO because it has been throttled to the point that its IO is taking much longer than normal. But because a higher priority group depends on this completing it is now stuck behind lower priority work. In order to avoid this particular priority inversion we want to use the existing retry mechanism to stop from holding the mmap_sem at all if we are going to do IO. This already exists in the read case sort of, but needed to be extended for more than just grabbing the page lock. With io.latency we throttle at submit_bio() time, so the readahead stuff can block and even page_cache_read can block, so all these paths need to have the mmap_sem dropped. The other big thing is ->page_mkwrite. btrfs is particularly shitty here because we have to reserve space for the dirty page, which can be a very expensive operation. We use the same retry method as the read path, and simply cache the page and verify the page is still setup properly the next pass through ->page_mkwrite(). I've tested these patches with xfstests and there are no regressions. This patch (of 3): If we do not have a page at filemap_fault time we'll do this weird forced page_cache_read thing to populate the page, and then drop it again and loop around and find it. This makes for 2 ways we can read a page in filemap_fault, and it's not really needed. Instead add a FGP_FOR_MMAP flag so that pagecache_get_page() will return a unlocked page that's in pagecache. Then use the normal page locking and readpage logic already in filemap_fault. This simplifies the no page in page cache case significantly.

filemap: check compound_head(page)->mapping in filemap_fault() Patch series "Enable THP for text section of non-shmem files", v10; This patchset follows up discussion at LSF/MM 2019. The motivation is to put text section of an application in THP, and thus reduces iTLB miss rate and improves performance. Both Facebook and Oracle showed strong interests to this feature. To make reviews easier, this set aims a mininal valid product. Current version of the work does not have any changes to file system specific code. This comes with some limitations (discussed later). This set enables an application to "hugify" its text section by simply running something like: madvise(0x600000, 0x80000, MADV_HUGEPAGE); Before this call, the /proc/<pid>/maps looks like: 00400000-074d0000 r-xp 00000000 00:27 2006927 app After this call, part of the text section is split out and mapped to THP: 00400000-00425000 r-xp 00000000 00:27 2006927 app 00600000-00e00000 r-xp 00200000 00:27 2006927 app <<< on THP 00e00000-074d0000 r-xp 00a00000 00:27 2006927 app Limitations: 1. This only works for text section (vma with VM_DENYWRITE). 2. Original limitation #2 is removed in v3. We gated this feature with an experimental config, READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS. Once we get better support on the write path, we can remove the config and enable it by default. Tested cases: 1. Tested with btrfs and ext4. 2. Tested with real work application (memcache like caching service). 3. Tested with "THP aware uprobe": https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-mm/list/?series=131339 This patch (of 7): Currently, filemap_fault() avoids race condition with truncate by checking page->mapping == mapping. This does not work for compound pages. This patch let it check compound_head(page)->mapping instead.

mm: fix fault vs invalidate race for linear mappings Fix the race between invalidate_inode_pages and do_no_page. Andrea Arcangeli identified a subtle race between invalidation of pages from pagecache with userspace mappings, and do_no_page. The issue is that invalidation has to shoot down all mappings to the page, before it can be discarded from the pagecache. Between shooting down ptes to a particular page, and actually dropping the struct page from the pagecache, do_no_page from any process might fault on that page and establish a new mapping to the page just before it gets discarded from the pagecache. The most common case where such invalidation is used is in file truncation. This case was catered for by doing a sort of open-coded seqlock between the file's i_size, and its truncate_count. Truncation will decrease i_size, then increment truncate_count before unmapping userspace pages; do_no_page will read truncate_count, then find the page if it is within i_size, and then check truncate_count under the page table lock and back out and retry if it had subsequently been changed (ptl will serialise against unmapping, and ensure a potentially updated truncate_count is actually visible). Complexity and documentation issues aside, the locking protocol fails in the case where we would like to invalidate pagecache inside i_size. do_no_page can come in anytime and filemap_nopage is not aware of the invalidation in progress (as it is when it is outside i_size). The end result is that dangling (->mapping == NULL) pages that appear to be from a particular file may be mapped into userspace with nonsense data. Valid mappings to the same place will see a different page. Andrea implemented two working fixes, one using a real seqlock, another using a page->flags bit. He also proposed using the page lock in do_no_page, but that was initially considered too heavyweight.

mm: fix fault vs invalidate race for linear mappings Fix the race between invalidate_inode_pages and do_no_page. Andrea Arcangeli identified a subtle race between invalidation of pages from pagecache with userspace mappings, and do_no_page. The issue is that invalidation has to shoot down all mappings to the page, before it can be discarded from the pagecache. Between shooting down ptes to a particular page, and actually dropping the struct page from the pagecache, do_no_page from any process might fault on that page and establish a new mapping to the page just before it gets discarded from the pagecache. The most common case where such invalidation is used is in file truncation. This case was catered for by doing a sort of open-coded seqlock between the file's i_size, and its truncate_count. Truncation will decrease i_size, then increment truncate_count before unmapping userspace pages; do_no_page will read truncate_count, then find the page if it is within i_size, and then check truncate_count under the page table lock and back out and retry if it had subsequently been changed (ptl will serialise against unmapping, and ensure a potentially updated truncate_count is actually visible). Complexity and documentation issues aside, the locking protocol fails in the case where we would like to invalidate pagecache inside i_size. do_no_page can come in anytime and filemap_nopage is not aware of the invalidation in progress (as it is when it is outside i_size). The end result is that dangling (->mapping == NULL) pages that appear to be from a particular file may be mapped into userspace with nonsense data. Valid mappings to the same place will see a different page. Andrea implemented two working fixes, one using a real seqlock, another using a page->flags bit. He also proposed using the page lock in do_no_page, but that was initially considered too heavyweight. However, it is not a global or per-file lock, and the page cacheline is modified in do_no_page to increment _count and _mapcount anyway, so a further modification should not be a large performance hit. Scalability is not an issue.

filemap: drop the mmap_sem for all blocking operations Currently we only drop the mmap_sem if there is contention on the page lock. The idea is that we issue readahead and then go to lock the page while it is under IO and we want to not hold the mmap_sem during the IO. The problem with this is the assumption that the readahead does anything. In the case that the box is under extreme memory or IO pressure we may end up not reading anything at all for readahead, which means we will end up reading in the page under the mmap_sem. Even if the readahead does something, it could get throttled because of io pressure on the system and the process is in a lower priority cgroup. Holding the mmap_sem while doing IO is problematic because it can cause system-wide priority inversions. Consider some large company that does a lot of web traffic. This large company has load balancing logic in it's core web server, cause some engineer thought this was a brilliant plan. This load balancing logic gets statistics from /proc about the system, which trip over processes mmap_sem for various reasons. Now the web server application is in a protected cgroup, but these other processes may not be, and if they are being throttled while their mmap_sem is held we'll stall, and cause this nice death spiral. Instead rework filemap fault path to drop the mmap sem at any point that we may do IO or block for an extended period of time. This includes while issuing readahead, locking the page, or needing to call ->readpage because readahead did not occur. Then once we have a fully uptodate page we can return with VM_FAULT_RETRY and come back again to find our nicely in-cache page that was gotten outside of the mmap_sem. This patch also adds a new helper for locking the page with the mmap_sem dropped. This doesn't make sense currently as generally speaking if the page is already locked it'll have been read in (unless there was an error) before it was unlocked. However a forthcoming patchset will change this with the ability to abort read-ahead bio's if necessary, making it more likely that we could contend for a page lock and still have a not uptodate page. This allows us to deal with this case by grabbing the lock and issuing the IO without the mmap_sem held, and then returning VM_FAULT_RETRY to come back around.

mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

mm: fix fault vs invalidate race for linear mappings Fix the race between invalidate_inode_pages and do_no_page. Andrea Arcangeli identified a subtle race between invalidation of pages from pagecache with userspace mappings, and do_no_page. The issue is that invalidation has to shoot down all mappings to the page, before it can be discarded from the pagecache. Between shooting down ptes to a particular page, and actually dropping the struct page from the pagecache, do_no_page from any process might fault on that page and establish a new mapping to the page just before it gets discarded from the pagecache. The most common case where such invalidation is used is in file truncation. This case was catered for by doing a sort of open-coded seqlock between the file's i_size, and its truncate_count. Truncation will decrease i_size, then increment truncate_count before unmapping userspace pages; do_no_page will read truncate_count, then find the page if it is within i_size, and then check truncate_count under the page table lock and back out and retry if it had subsequently been changed (ptl will serialise against unmapping, and ensure a potentially updated truncate_count is actually visible). Complexity and documentation issues aside, the locking protocol fails in the case where we would like to invalidate pagecache inside i_size. do_no_page can come in anytime and filemap_nopage is not aware of the invalidation in progress (as it is when it is outside i_size). The end result is that dangling (->mapping == NULL) pages that appear to be from a particular file may be mapped into userspace with nonsense data. Valid mappings to the same place will see a different page. Andrea implemented two working fixes, one using a real seqlock, another using a page->flags bit. He also proposed using the page lock in do_no_page, but that was initially considered too heavyweight. However, it is not a global or per-file lock, and the page cacheline is modified in do_no_page to increment _count and _mapcount anyway, so a further modification should not be a large performance hit. Scalability is not an issue. This patch implements this latter approach. ->nopage implementations return with the page locked if it is possible for their underlying file to be invalidated (in that case, they must set a special vm_flags bit to indicate so). do_no_page only unlocks the page after setting up the mapping completely. invalidation is excluded because it holds the page lock during invalidation of each page (and ensures that the page is not mapped while holding the lock). This also allows significant simplifications in do_no_page, because we have the page locked in the right place in the pagecache from the start.

filemap: drop the mmap_sem for all blocking operations Currently we only drop the mmap_sem if there is contention on the page lock. The idea is that we issue readahead and then go to lock the page while it is under IO and we want to not hold the mmap_sem during the IO. The problem with this is the assumption that the readahead does anything. In the case that the box is under extreme memory or IO pressure we may end up not reading anything at all for readahead, which means we will end up reading in the page under the mmap_sem. Even if the readahead does something, it could get throttled because of io pressure on the system and the process is in a lower priority cgroup. Holding the mmap_sem while doing IO is problematic because it can cause system-wide priority inversions. Consider some large company that does a lot of web traffic. This large company has load balancing logic in it's core web server, cause some engineer thought this was a brilliant plan. This load balancing logic gets statistics from /proc about the system, which trip over processes mmap_sem for various reasons. Now the web server application is in a protected cgroup, but these other processes may not be, and if they are being throttled while their mmap_sem is held we'll stall, and cause this nice death spiral. Instead rework filemap fault path to drop the mmap sem at any point that we may do IO or block for an extended period of time. This includes while issuing readahead, locking the page, or needing to call ->readpage because readahead did not occur. Then once we have a fully uptodate page we can return with VM_FAULT_RETRY and come back again to find our nicely in-cache page that was gotten outside of the mmap_sem. This patch also adds a new helper for locking the page with the mmap_sem dropped. This doesn't make sense currently as generally speaking if the page is already locked it'll have been read in (unless there was an error) before it was unlocked. However a forthcoming patchset will change this with the ability to abort read-ahead bio's if necessary, making it more likely that we could contend for a page lock and still have a not uptodate page. This allows us to deal with this case by grabbing the lock and issuing the IO without the mmap_sem held, and then returning VM_FAULT_RETRY to come back around.

mm: merge populate and nopage into fault (fixes nonlinear) Nonlinear mappings are (AFAIKS) simply a virtual memory concept that encodes the virtual address -> file offset differently from linear mappings. ->populate is a layering violation because the filesystem/pagecache code should need to know anything about the virtual memory mapping. The hitch here is that the ->nopage handler didn't pass down enough information (ie. pgoff). But it is more logical to pass pgoff rather than have the ->nopage function calculate it itself anyway (because that's a similar layering violation). Having the populate handler install the pte itself is likewise a nasty thing to be doing. This patch introduces a new fault handler that replaces ->nopage and ->populate and (later) ->nopfn. Most of the old mechanism is still in place so there is a lot of duplication and nice cleanups that can be removed if everyone switches over. The rationale for doing this in the first place is that nonlinear mappings are subject to the pagefault vs invalidate/truncate race too, and it seemed stupid to duplicate the synchronisation logic rather than just consolidate the two. After this patch, MAP_NONBLOCK no longer sets up ptes for pages present in pagecache. Seems like a fringe functionality anyway. NOPAGE_REFAULT is removed. This should be implemented with ->fault, and no users have hit mainline yet.

This should provide stable page write support to most filesystems, while eliminating unnecessary waiting for devices that don't require the feature. Before this patchset, all filesystems would block, regardless of whether or not it was necessary. ext3 would wait, but still generate occasional checksum errors. The network filesystems were left to do their own thing, so they'd wait too. After this patchset, all the disk filesystems except ext3 and btrfs will wait only if the hardware requires it. ext3 (if necessary) snapshots pages instead of blocking, and btrfs provides its own bdi so the mm will never wait. Network filesystems haven't been touched, so either they provide their own stable page guarantees or they don't block at all. The blocking behavior is back to what it was before 3.0 if you don't have a disk requiring stable page writes. Here's the result of using dbench to test latency on ext2: 3.8.0-rc3: Operation Count AvgLat MaxLat ---------------------------------------- WriteX 109347 0.028 59.817 ReadX 347180 0.004 3.391 Flush 15514 29.828 287.283 Throughput 57.429 MB/sec 4 clients 4 procs max_latency=287.290 ms 3.8.0-rc3 + patches: WriteX 105556 0.029 4.273 ReadX 335004 0.005 4.112 Flush 14982 30.540 298.634 Throughput 55.4496 MB/sec 4 clients 4 procs max_latency=298.650 ms As you can see, the maximum write latency drops considerably with this patch enabled. The other filesystems (ext3/ext4/xfs/btrfs) behave similarly, but see the cover letter for those results. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

mm: merge populate and nopage into fault (fixes nonlinear) Nonlinear mappings are (AFAIKS) simply a virtual memory concept that encodes the virtual address -> file offset differently from linear mappings. ->populate is a layering violation because the filesystem/pagecache code should need to know anything about the virtual memory mapping. The hitch here is that the ->nopage handler didn't pass down enough information (ie. pgoff). But it is more logical to pass pgoff rather than have the ->nopage function calculate it itself anyway (because that's a similar layering violation). Having the populate handler install the pte itself is likewise a nasty thing to be doing. This patch introduces a new fault handler that replaces ->nopage and ->populate and (later) ->nopfn. Most of the old mechanism is still in place so there is a lot of duplication and nice cleanups that can be removed if everyone switches over. The rationale for doing this in the first place is that nonlinear mappings are subject to the pagefault vs invalidate/truncate race too, and it seemed stupid to duplicate the synchronisation logic rather than just consolidate the two. After this patch, MAP_NONBLOCK no longer sets up ptes for pages present in pagecache. Seems like a fringe functionality anyway. NOPAGE_REFAULT is removed. This should be implemented with ->fault, and no users have hit mainline yet.

mm: remove read_cache_page_async() This patch removes read_cache_page_async() which wasn't really needed anywhere and simplifies the code around it a bit. read_cache_page_async() is useful when we want to read a page into the cache without waiting for it to complete. This happens when the appropriate callback 'filler' doesn't complete its read operation and releases the page lock immediately, and instead queues a different completion routine to do that. This never actually happened anywhere in the code. read_cache_page_async() had 3 different callers: - read_cache_page() which is the sync version, it would just wait for the requested read to complete using wait_on_page_read(). - JFFS2 would call it from jffs2_gc_fetch_page(), but the filler function it supplied doesn't do any async reads, and would complete before the filler function returns - making it actually a sync read. - CRAMFS would call it using the read_mapping_page_async() wrapper, with a similar story to JFFS2 - the filler function doesn't do anything that reminds async reads and would always complete before the filler function returns. To sum it up, the code in mm/filemap.c never took advantage of having read_cache_page_async(). While there are filler callbacks that do async reads (such as the block one), we always called it with the read_cache_page(). This patch adds a mandatory wait for read to complete when adding a new page to the cache, and removes read_cache_page_async() and its wrappers.

mm: remove __GFP_COLD As the page free path makes no distinction between cache hot and cold pages, there is no real useful ordering of pages in the free list that allocation requests can take advantage of. Juding from the users of __GFP_COLD, it is likely that a number of them are the result of copying other sites instead of actually measuring the impact. Remove the __GFP_COLD parameter which simplifies a number of paths in the page allocator. This is potentially controversial but bear in mind that the size of the per-cpu pagelists versus modern cache sizes means that the whole per-cpu list can often fit in the L3 cache. Hence, there is only a potential benefit for microbenchmarks that alloc/free pages in a tight loop. It's even worse when THP is taken into account which has little or no chance of getting a cache-hot page as the per-cpu list is bypassed and the zeroing of multiple pages will thrash the cache anyway. The truncate microbenchmarks are not shown as this patch affects the allocation path and not the free path. A page fault microbenchmark was tested but it showed no sigificant difference which is not surprising given that the __GFP_COLD branches are a miniscule percentage of the fault path.

If not, the page lock is acquired to wait for IO to complete and then check the page. If multiple processes are waiting on IO, they all serialise against the lock and duplicate the checks. This is unnecessary. The page lock in itself does not give any guarantees to the callers about the page state as it can be immediately truncated or reclaimed after the page is unlocked. It's sufficient to wait_on_page_locked and then continue if the page is up to date on wakeup. It is possible that a truncated but up-to-date page is returned but the reference taken during read prevents it disappearing underneath the caller and the data is still valid if PageUptodate. The overall impact is small as even if processes serialise on the lock, the lock section is tiny once the IO is complete. Profiles indicated that unlock_page and friends are generally a tiny portion of a read-intensive workload.

mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach.

mm/filemap.c: clear page error before actual read Mount failure issue happens under the scenario: Application forked dozens of threads to mount the same number of cramfs images separately in docker, but several mounts failed with high probability. Mount failed due to the checking result of the page(read from the superblock of loop dev) is not uptodate after wait_on_page_locked(page) returned in function cramfs_read: wait_on_page_locked(page); if (!PageUptodate(page)) { ... } The reason of the checking result of the page not uptodate: systemd-udevd read the loopX dev before mount, because the status of loopX is Lo_unbound at this time, so loop_make_request directly trigger the calling of io_end handler end_buffer_async_read, which called SetPageError(page). So It caused the page can't be set to uptodate in function end_buffer_async_read: if(page_uptodate && !PageError(page)) { SetPageUptodate(page); } Then mount operation is performed, it used the same page which is just accessed by systemd-udevd above, Because this page is not uptodate, it will launch a actual read via submit_bh, then wait on this page by calling wait_on_page_locked(page). When the I/O of the page done, io_end handler end_buffer_async_read is called, because no one cleared the page error(during the whole read path of mount), which is caused by systemd-udevd reading, so this page is still in "PageError" status, which can't be set to uptodate in function end_buffer_async_read, then caused mount failure. But sometimes mount succeed even through systemd-udeved read loopX dev just before, The reason is systemd-udevd launched other loopX read just between step 3.1 and 3.2, the steps as below: 1, loopX dev default status is Lo_unbound; 2, systemd-udved read loopX dev (page is set to PageError); 3, mount operation 1) set loopX status to Lo_bound; ==>systemd-udevd read loopX dev<== 2) read loopX dev(page has no error) 3) mount succeed As the loopX dev status is set to Lo_bound after step 3.1, so the other loopX dev read by systemd-udevd will go through the whole I/O stack, part of the call trace as below: SYS_read vfs_read do_sync_read blkdev_aio_read generic_file_aio_read do_generic_file_read: ClearPageError(page); mapping->a_ops->readpage(filp, page); here, mapping->a_ops->readpage() is blkdev_readpage. In latest kernel, some function name changed, the call trace as below: blkdev_read_iter generic_file_read_iter generic_file_buffered_read: /* * A previous I/O error may have been due to temporary * failures, eg. mutipath errors. * Pg_error will be set again if readpage fails. */ ClearPageError(page); /* Start the actual read. The read will unlock the page*/ error=mapping->a_ops->readpage(flip, page); We can see ClearPageError(page) is called before the actual read, then the read in step 3.2 succeed. This patch is to add the calling of ClearPageError just before the actual read of read path of cramfs mount. Without the patch, the call trace as below when performing cramfs mount: do_mount cramfs_read cramfs_blkdev_read read_cache_page do_read_cache_page: filler(data, page); or mapping->a_ops->readpage(data, page); With the patch, the call trace as below when performing mount: do_mount cramfs_read cramfs_blkdev_read read_cache_page: do_read_cache_page: ClearPageError(page); <== new add filler(data, page); or mapping->a_ops->readpage(data, page); With the patch, mount operation trigger the calling of ClearPageError(page) before the actual read, the page has no error if no additional page error happen when I/O done.

mm: remove read_cache_page_async() This patch removes read_cache_page_async() which wasn't really needed anywhere and simplifies the code around it a bit. read_cache_page_async() is useful when we want to read a page into the cache without waiting for it to complete.

This never actually happened anywhere in the code. read_cache_page_async() had 3 different callers: - read_cache_page() which is the sync version, it would just wait for the requested read to complete using wait_on_page_read(). - JFFS2 would call it from jffs2_gc_fetch_page(), but the filler function it supplied doesn't do any async reads, and would complete before the filler function returns - making it actually a sync read. - CRAMFS would call it using the read_mapping_page_async() wrapper, with a similar story to JFFS2 - the filler function doesn't do anything that reminds async reads and would always complete before the filler function returns. To sum it up, the code in mm/filemap.c never took advantage of having read_cache_page_async(). While there are filler callbacks that do async reads (such as the block one), we always called it with the read_cache_page().

VFS: fix dio write returning EIO when try_to_release_page fails Dio write returns EIO when try_to_release_page fails because bh is still referenced. The patch commit 3f31fddfa26b7594b44ff2b34f9a04ba409e0f91 Author: Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com> Date: Fri Jul 25 01:46:22 2008 -0700 jbd: fix race between free buffer and commit transaction was merged into 2.6.27-rc1, but I noticed that this patch is not enough to fix the race. I did fsstress test heavily to 2.6.27-rc1, and found that dio write still sometimes got EIO through this test. The patch above fixed race between freeing buffer(dio) and committing transaction(jbd) but I discovered that there is another race, freeing buffer(dio) and ext3/4_ordered_writepage. : background_writeout() ->write_cache_pages() ->ext3_ordered_writepage() walk_page_buffers() -> take a bh ref block_write_full_page() -> unlock_page : <- end_page_writeback : <- race! (dio write->try_to_release_page fails) walk_page_buffers() ->release a bh ref ext3_ordered_writepage holds bh ref and does unlock_page remaining taking a bh ref, so this causes the race and failure of try_to_release_page. To fix this race, I used the approach of falling back to buffered writes if try_to_release_page() fails on a page.

fs: fix data invalidation in the cleancache during direct IO Patch series "Properly invalidate data in the cleancache", v2. We've noticed that after direct IO write, buffered read sometimes gets stale data which is coming from the cleancache. The reason for this is that some direct write hooks call call invalidate_inode_pages2[_range]() conditionally iff mapping->nrpages is not zero, so we may not invalidate data in the cleancache. Another odd thing is that we check only for ->nrpages and don't check for ->nrexceptional, but invalidate_inode_pages2[_range] also invalidates exceptional entries as well. So we invalidate exceptional entries only if ->nrpages != 0? This doesn't feel right. - Patch 1 fixes direct IO writes by removing ->nrpages check. - Patch 2 fixes similar case in invalidate_bdev(). Note: I only fixed conditional cleancache_invalidate_inode() here. Do we also need to add ->nrexceptional check in into invalidate_bdev()? - Patches 3-4: some optimizations. This patch (of 4): Some direct IO write fs hooks call invalidate_inode_pages2[_range]() conditionally iff mapping->nrpages is not zero. This can't be right, because invalidate_inode_pages2[_range]() also invalidate data in the cleancache via cleancache_invalidate_inode() call. So if page cache is empty but there is some data in the cleancache, buffered read after direct IO write would get stale data from the cleancache. Also it doesn't feel right to check only for ->nrpages because invalidate_inode_pages2[_range] invalidates exceptional entries as well.

mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

fs: fix data invalidation in the cleancache during direct IO Patch series "Properly invalidate data in the cleancache", v2. We've noticed that after direct IO write, buffered read sometimes gets stale data which is coming from the cleancache. The reason for this is that some direct write hooks call call invalidate_inode_pages2[_range]() conditionally iff mapping->nrpages is not zero, so we may not invalidate data in the cleancache. Another odd thing is that we check only for ->nrpages and don't check for ->nrexceptional, but invalidate_inode_pages2[_range] also invalidates exceptional entries as well. So we invalidate exceptional entries only if ->nrpages != 0? This doesn't feel right. - Patch 1 fixes direct IO writes by removing ->nrpages check. - Patch 2 fixes similar case in invalidate_bdev(). Note: I only fixed conditional cleancache_invalidate_inode() here. Do we also need to add ->nrexceptional check in into invalidate_bdev()? - Patches 3-4: some optimizations. This patch (of 4): Some direct IO write fs hooks call invalidate_inode_pages2[_range]() conditionally iff mapping->nrpages is not zero. This can't be right, because invalidate_inode_pages2[_range]() also invalidate data in the cleancache via cleancache_invalidate_inode() call. So if page cache is empty but there is some data in the cleancache, buffered read after direct IO write would get stale data from the cleancache. Also it doesn't feel right to check only for ->nrpages because invalidate_inode_pages2[_range] invalidates exceptional entries as well. Fix this by calling invalidate_inode_pages2[_range]() regardless of nrpages state. Note: nfs,cifs,9p doesn't need similar fix because the never call cleancache_get_page() (nor directly, nor via mpage_readpage[s]()), so they are not affected by this bug.

fs: symlink write_begin allocation context fix With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the allocations happened. They are done in write_begin, which would always assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim. This bug could cause filesystem deadlocks. The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be called. It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to take the page lock. The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS anyway, so turn that into a single flag. Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS. Filesystems can now act on this flag in their write_begin function. Change __grab_cache_page to accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there, change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive and does away with random leading underscores). This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg. ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a random example).

mm: filemap: only do access activations on reads Andres observed that his database workload is struggling with the transaction journal creating pressure on frequently read pages. Access patterns like transaction journals frequently write the same pages over and over, but in the majority of cases those pages are never read back. There are no caching benefits to be had for those pages, so activating them and having them put pressure on pages that do benefit from caching is a bad choice. Leave page activations to read accesses and don't promote pages based on writes alone. It could be said that partially written pages do contain cache-worthy data, because even if *userspace* does not access the unwritten part, the kernel still has to read it from the filesystem for correctness. However, a counter argument is that these pages enjoy at least *some* protection over other inactive file pages through the writeback cache, in the sense that dirty pages are written back with a delay and cache reclaim leaves them alone until they have been written back to disk. Should that turn out to be insufficient and we see increased read IO from partial writes under memory pressure, we can always go back and update grab_cache_page_write_begin() to take (pos, len) so that it can tell partial writes from pages that don't need partial reads. But for now, keep it simple.

mm: non-atomically mark page accessed during page cache allocation where possible aops->write_begin may allocate a new page and make it visible only to have mark_page_accessed called almost immediately after. Once the page is visible the atomic operations are necessary which is noticable overhead when writing to an in-memory filesystem like tmpfs but should also be noticable with fast storage. The objective of the patch is to initialse the accessed information with non-atomic operations before the page is visible. The bulk of filesystems directly or indirectly use grab_cache_page_write_begin or find_or_create_page for the initial allocation of a page cache page. This patch adds an init_page_accessed() helper which behaves like the first call to mark_page_accessed() but may called before the page is visible and can be done non-atomically. The primary APIs of concern in this care are the following and are used by most filesystems. find_get_page find_lock_page find_or_create_page grab_cache_page_nowait grab_cache_page_write_begin All of them are very similar in detail to the patch creates a core helper pagecache_get_page() which takes a flags parameter that affects its behavior such as whether the page should be marked accessed or not. Then old API is preserved but is basically a thin wrapper around this core function. Each of the filesystems are then updated to avoid calling mark_page_accessed when it is known that the VM interfaces have already done the job. There is a slight snag in that the timing of the mark_page_accessed() has now changed so in rare cases it's possible a page gets to the end of the LRU as PageReferenced where as previously it might have been repromoted. This is expected to be rare but it's worth the filesystem people thinking about it in case they see a problem with the timing change. It is also the case that some filesystems may be marking pages accessed that previously did not but it makes sense that filesystems have consistent behaviour in this regard. The test case used to evaulate this is a simple dd of a large file done multiple times with the file deleted on each iterations. The size of the file is 1/10th physical memory to avoid dirty page balancing. In the async case it will be possible that the workload completes without even hitting the disk and will have variable results but highlight the impact of mark_page_accessed for async IO. The sync results are expected to be more stable. The exception is tmpfs where the normal case is for the "IO" to not hit the disk. The test machine was single socket and UMA to avoid any scheduling or NUMA artifacts. Throughput and wall times are presented for sync IO, only wall times are shown for async as the granularity reported by dd and the variability is unsuitable for comparison. As async results were variable do to writback timings, I'm only reporting the maximum figures. The sync results were stable enough to make the mean and stddev uninteresting.

fs: symlink write_begin allocation context fix With the write_begin/write_end aops, page_symlink was broken because it could no longer pass a GFP_NOFS type mask into the point where the allocations happened. They are done in write_begin, which would always assume that the filesystem can be entered from reclaim. This bug could cause filesystem deadlocks. The funny thing with having a gfp_t mask there is that it doesn't really allow the caller to arbitrarily tinker with the context in which it can be called. It couldn't ever be GFP_ATOMIC, for example, because it needs to take the page lock. The only thing any callers care about is __GFP_FS anyway, so turn that into a single flag. Add a new flag for write_begin, AOP_FLAG_NOFS. Filesystems can now act on this flag in their write_begin function. Change __grab_cache_page to accept a nofs argument as well, to honour that flag (while we're there, change the name to grab_cache_page_write_begin which is more instructive and does away with random leading underscores). This is really a more flexible way to go in the end anyway -- if a filesystem happens to want any extra allocations aside from the pagecache ones in ints write_begin function, it may now use GFP_KERNEL (rather than GFP_NOFS) for common case allocations (eg. ocfs2_alloc_write_ctxt, for a random example).

mm: non-atomically mark page accessed during page cache allocation where possible aops->write_begin may allocate a new page and make it visible only to have mark_page_accessed called almost immediately after. Once the page is visible the atomic operations are necessary which is noticable overhead when writing to an in-memory filesystem like tmpfs but should also be noticable with fast storage. The objective of the patch is to initialse the accessed information with non-atomic operations before the page is visible. The bulk of filesystems directly or indirectly use grab_cache_page_write_begin or find_or_create_page for the initial allocation of a page cache page. This patch adds an init_page_accessed() helper which behaves like the first call to mark_page_accessed() but may called before the page is visible and can be done non-atomically. The primary APIs of concern in this care are the following and are used by most filesystems. find_get_page find_lock_page find_or_create_page grab_cache_page_nowait grab_cache_page_write_begin All of them are very similar in detail to the patch creates a core helper pagecache_get_page() which takes a flags parameter that affects its behavior such as whether the page should be marked accessed or not. Then old API is preserved but is basically a thin wrapper around this core function. Each of the filesystems are then updated to avoid calling mark_page_accessed when it is known that the VM interfaces have already done the job. There is a slight snag in that the timing of the mark_page_accessed() has now changed so in rare cases it's possible a page gets to the end of the LRU as PageReferenced where as previously it might have been repromoted. This is expected to be rare but it's worth the filesystem people thinking about it in case they see a problem with the timing change. It is also the case that some filesystems may be marking pages accessed that previously did not but it makes sense that filesystems have consistent behaviour in this regard. The test case used to evaulate this is a simple dd of a large file done multiple times with the file deleted on each iterations. The size of the file is 1/10th physical memory to avoid dirty page balancing. In the async case it will be possible that the workload completes without even hitting the disk and will have variable results but highlight the impact of mark_page_accessed for async IO. The sync results are expected to be more stable. The exception is tmpfs where the normal case is for the "IO" to not hit the disk. The test machine was single socket and UMA to avoid any scheduling or NUMA artifacts. Throughput and wall times are presented for sync IO, only wall times are shown for async as the granularity reported by dd and the variability is unsuitable for comparison. As async results were variable do to writback timings, I'm only reporting the maximum figures. The sync results were stable enough to make the mean and stddev uninteresting.
