Direct reclaim currently calls shrink_zones() to reclaim all members of
a zonelist, and if that wasn't successful it does another pass through
the same zonelist to check overall reclaimability.
Just check reclaimability in shrink_zones() directly and propagate the
result through the return value. Then remove all_unreclaimable().

Page reclaim for a higher-order page runs until compaction is ready,
then aborts and signals this situation through the return value of
shrink_zones(). This is an oddly specific signal to encode in the
return value of shrink_zones(), though, and can be quite confusing.
Introduce sc->compaction_ready and signal the compactability of the
zones out-of-band to free up the return value of shrink_zones() for
actual zone reclaimability.

shrink_zones() has a special branch to skip the all_unreclaimable()
check during hibernation, because a frozen kswapd can't mark a zone
unreclaimable.
But ever since commit 6e543d5780 ("mm: vmscan: fix
do_try_to_free_pages() livelock"), determining a zone to be
unreclaimable is done by directly looking at its scan history and no
longer relies on kswapd setting the per-zone flag.
Remove this branch and let shrink_zones() check the reclaimability of
the target zones regardless of hibernation state.

Due to an old optimization to keep expensive res_counter changes at a
minimum, the root_mem_cgroup res_counter is never charged; there is no
limit at that level anyway, and any statistics can be generated on
demand by summing up the counters of all other cgroups.
However, with per-cpu charge caches, res_counter operations do not even
show up in profiles anymore, so this optimization is no longer
necessary.
Remove it to simplify the code.

When mem_cgroup_try_charge() returns -EINTR, it bypassed the charge to
the root memcg. But move precharging does not catch this and treats
this case as if no charge had happened, thus leaking a charge against
root. Because of an old optimization, the root memcg's res_counter is
not actually charged right now, but it's still an imbalance and
subsequent patches will charge the root memcg again.
Catch those bypasses to the root memcg and properly cancel them before
giving up the move.

The move precharge function does some baroque things: it tries raw
res_counter charging of the entire amount first, and then falls back to
a loop of one-by-one charges, with checks for pending signals and
cond_resched() batching.
Just use mem_cgroup_try_charge() without __GFP_WAIT for the first bulk
charge attempt. In the one-by-one loop, remove the signal check (this
is already checked in try_charge), and simply call cond_resched() after
every charge - it's not that expensive.

Transparent huge page charges prefer falling back to regular pages
rather than spending a lot of time in direct reclaim.
Desired reclaim behavior is usually declared in the gfp mask, but THP
charges use GFP_KERNEL and then rely on the fact that OOM is disabled
for THP charges, and that OOM-disabled charges don't retry reclaim.
Needless to say, this is anything but obvious and quite error prone.
Convert THP charges to use GFP_TRANSHUGE instead, which implies
__GFP_NORETRY, to indicate the low-latency requirement.

The charging path currently starts out with OOM condition checks when
OOM is the rarest possible case.
Rearrange this code to run OOM/task dying checks only after trying the
percpu charge and the res_counter charge and bail out before entering
reclaim. Attempting a charge does not hurt an (oom-)killed task as much
as every charge attempt having to check OOM conditions. Also, only
check __GFP_NOFAIL when the charge would actually fail.

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). Before:

In some architectures like x86, atomic_add() is a full memory barrier.
In that case, an additional smp_mb() is just a waste of time. This
patch replaces that smp_mb() by smp_mb__after_atomic() which will avoid
the redundant memory barrier in some architectures.
With a 3.16-rc1 based kernel, this patch reduced the execution time of
breaking 1000 transparent huge pages from 38,245us to 30,964us. A
reduction of 19% which is quite sizeable. It also reduces the %cpu time
of the __split_huge_page_refcount function in the perf profile from

In __split_huge_page_map(), the check for page_mapcount(page) is
invariant within the for loop. Because of the fact that the macro is
implemented using atomic_read(), the redundant check cannot be optimized
away by the compiler leading to unnecessary read to the page structure.
This patch moves the invariant bug check out of the loop so that it will
be done only once. On a 3.16-rc1 based kernel, the execution time of a
microbenchmark that broke up 1000 transparent huge pages using munmap()
had an execution time of 38,245us and 38,548us with and without the
patch respectively. The performance gain is about 1%.

Currently, there are two users on CMA functionality, one is the DMA
subsystem and the other is the KVM on powerpc. They have their own code
to manage CMA reserved area even if they looks really similar. From my
guess, it is caused by some needs on bitmap management. KVM side wants
to maintain bitmap not for 1 page, but for more size. Eventually it use
bitmap where one bit represents 64 pages.
When I implement CMA related patches, I should change those two places
to apply my change and it seem to be painful to me. I want to change
this situation and reduce future code management overhead through this
patch.
This change could also help developer who want to use CMA in their new
feature development, since they can use CMA easily without copying &
pasting this reserved area management code.
In previous patches, we have prepared some features to generalize CMA
reserved area management and now it's time to do it. This patch moves
core functions to mm/cma.c and change DMA APIs to use these functions.
There is no functional change in DMA APIs.

If gcc does re-access the pte before passing it down, then that would be

Richard Yao reported a month ago that his system have a trouble with

Andrew asked why his analysis checks /proc/meminfo stressfully, but he
didn't answer it.
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/10/416
Although I'm not sure that this is right usage or not, there is a
solution reducing vmap_area_lock contention with no side-effect. That
is just to use rcu list iterator in get_vmalloc_info().
rcu can be used in this function because all RCU protocol is already
respected by writers, since Nick Piggin commit db64fe0225 ("mm:
rewrite vmap layer") back in linux-2.6.28
Specifically :
insertions use list_add_rcu(),
deletions use list_del_rcu() and kfree_rcu().
Note the rb tree is not used from rcu reader (it would not be safe),
only the vmap_area_list has full RCU protection.
Note that __purge_vmap_area_lazy() already uses this rcu protection.
rcu_read_lock();
list_for_each_entry_rcu(va, &vmap_area_list, list) {
if (va->flags & VM_LAZY_FREE) {
if (va->va_start < *start)
*start = va->va_start;
if (va->va_end > *end)
*end = va->va_end;
nr += (va->va_end - va->va_start) >> PAGE_SHIFT;
list_add_tail(&va->purge_list, &valist);
va->flags |= VM_LAZY_FREEING;
va->flags &= ~VM_LAZY_FREE;
}
}
rcu_read_unlock();
Peter:
: While rcu list traversal over the vmap_area_list is safe, this may
: arrive at different results than the spinlocked version. The rcu list
: traversal version will not be a 'snapshot' of a single, valid instant
: of the entire vmap_area_list, but rather a potential amalgam of
: different list states.
Joonsoo:
: Yes, you are right, but I don't think that we should be strict here.
: Meminfo is already not a 'snapshot' at specific time. While we try to get
: certain stats, the other stats can change. And, although we may arrive at

The return statement goes with the cmpxchg_double() condition so it needs
to be indented another tab.
Also these days the fashion is to line function parameters up, and it
looks nicer that way because then the "freelist_new" is not at the same
indent level as the "return 1;".

When a kmem_cache is created with ctor, each object in the kmem_cache
will be initialized before ready to use. While in slub implementation,
the first object will be initialized twice.
This patch reduces the duplication of initialization of the first
object.

Currently, we use array_cache for alien_cache. Although they are mostly
similar, there is one difference, that is, need for spinlock. We don't
need spinlock for array_cache itself, but to use array_cache for
alien_cache, array_cache structure should have spinlock. This is
needless overhead, so removing it would be better. This patch prepare
it by introducing alien_cache and using it. In the following patch, we
remove spinlock in array_cache.

In free_block(), if freeing object makes new free slab and number of
free_objects exceeds free_limit, we start to destroy this new free slab
with holding the kmem_cache node lock. Holding the lock is useless and,
generally, holding a lock as least as possible is good thing. I never
measure performance effect of this, but we'd be better not to hold the
lock as much as possible.
Commented by Christoph:
This is also good because kmem_cache_free is no longer called while
holding the node lock. So we avoid one case of recursion.

This patchset does some cleanup and tries to remove lockdep annotation.
Patches 1~2 are just for really really minor improvement.
Patches 3~9 are for clean-up and removing lockdep annotation.
There are two cases that lockdep annotation is needed in SLAB.
1) holding two node locks
2) holding two array cache(alien cache) locks
I looked at the code and found that we can avoid these cases without any
negative effect.
1) occurs if freeing object makes new free slab and we decide to
destroy it. Although we don't need to hold the lock during destroying
a slab, current code do that. Destroying a slab without holding the
lock would help the reduction of the lock contention. To do it, I
change the implementation that new free slab is destroyed after
releasing the lock.
2) occurs on similar situation. When we free object from non-local
node, we put this object to alien cache with holding the alien cache
lock. If alien cache is full, we try to flush alien cache to proper
node cache, and, in this time, new free slab could be made. Destroying
it would be started and we will free metadata object which comes from
another node. In this case, we need another node's alien cache lock to
free object. This forces us to hold two array cache locks and then we
need lockdep annotation although they are always different locks and
deadlock cannot be possible. To prevent this situation, I use same way
as 1).
In this way, we can avoid 1) and 2) cases, and then, can remove lockdep
annotation. As short stat noted, this makes SLAB code much simpler.
This patch (of 9):
slab_should_failslab() is called on every allocation, so to optimize it
is reasonable. We normally don't allocate from kmem_cache. It is just
used when new kmem_cache is created, so it's very rare case. Therefore,
add unlikely macro to help compiler optimization.

There are two versions of alloc/free hooks now - one for
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG=y and another one for CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG=n.
I see no reason why calls to other debugging subsystems (LOCKDEP,
DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP, KMEMCHECK and FAILSLAB) are hidden under SLUB_DEBUG.
All this features should work regardless of SLUB_DEBUG config, as all of
them already have own Kconfig options.
This also fixes failslab for CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG=n configuration. It
simply has not worked before because should_failslab() call was in a
hook hidden under "#ifdef CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG #else".
Note: There is one concealed change in allocation path for SLUB_DEBUG=n
and all other debugging features disabled. The might_sleep_if() call
can generate some code even if DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=n. For
PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y might_sleep() inserts _cond_resched() call, but I
think it should be ok.
