mm, compaction: move high_pfn to the for loop scope
In fast_isolate_freepages, high_pfn will be used if a prefered one (ie
PFN >= low_fn) not found.
But the high_pfn is not reset before searching an free area, so when it
was used as freepage, it may from another free area searched before. As
a result move_freelist_head(freelist, freepage) will have unexpected
behavior (eg corrupt the MOVABLE freelist)

mm/lru: replace pgdat lru_lock with lruvec lock
This patch moves per node lru_lock into lruvec, thus bring a lru_lock for each of memcg per node. So on a large machine, each of memcg don't have to suffer from per node pgdat->lru_lock competition. They could go fast with their self lru_lock. After move memcg charge before lru inserting, page isolation could serialize page's memcg, then per memcg lruvec lock is stable and could replace per node lru lock. In isolate_migratepages_block(), compact_unlock_should_abort and lock_page_lruvec_irqsave are open coded to work with compact_control. Also add a debug func in locking which may give some clues if there are sth out of hands. Daniel Jordan's testing show 62% improvement on modified readtwice case on his 2P * 10 core * 2 HT broadwell box. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200915165807.kpp7uhiw7l3loofu@ca-dmjordan1.us.oracle.com/ Hugh Dickins helped on the patch polish, thanks!

mm/compaction: do page isolation first in compaction
Currently, compaction would get the lru_lock and then do page isolation
which works fine with pgdat->lru_lock, since any page isoltion would
compete for the lru_lock. If we want to change to memcg lru_lock, we have
to isolate the page before getting lru_lock, thus isoltion would block
page's memcg change which relay on page isoltion too. Then we could
safely use per memcg lru_lock later.
The new page isolation use previous introduced TestClearPageLRU() + pgdat
lru locking which will be changed to memcg lru lock later.
Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> fixed following bugs in this patch's early
version:
Fix lots of crashes under compaction load: isolate_migratepages_block()
must clean up appropriately when rejecting a page, setting PageLRU again
if it had been cleared; and a put_page() after get_page_unless_zero()
cannot safely be done while holding locked_lruvec - it may turn out to be
the final put_page(), which will take an lruvec lock when PageLRU.
And move __isolate_lru_page_prepare back after get_page_unless_zero to
make trylock_page() safe: trylock_page() is not safe to use at this time:
its setting PG_locked can race with the page being freed or allocated
("Bad page"), and can also erase flags being set by one of those "sole
owners" of a freshly allocated page who use non-atomic __SetPageFlag().

mm/compaction: stop isolation if too many pages are isolated and we have pages to migrate
In isolate_migratepages_block, if we have too many isolated pages and
nr_migratepages is not zero, we should try to migrate what we have
without wasting time on isolating.
In theory it's possible that multiple parallel compactions will cause
too_many_isolated() to become true even if each has isolated less than
COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX, and loop forever in the while loop. Bailing
immediately prevents that.

mm/compaction: count pages and stop correctly during page isolation
In isolate_migratepages_block, when cc->alloc_contig is true, we are
able to isolate compound pages. But nr_migratepages and nr_isolated did
not count compound pages correctly, causing us to isolate more pages
than we thought.
So count compound pages as the number of base pages they contain.
Otherwise, we might be trapped in too_many_isolated while loop, since
the actual isolated pages can go up to COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX*512=16384,
where COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX is 32, since we stop isolation after
cc->nr_migratepages reaches to COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX.
In addition, after we fix the issue above, cc->nr_migratepages could
never be equal to COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX if compound pages are isolated,
thus page isolation could not stop as we intended. Change the isolation
stop condition to '>='.
The issue can be triggered as follows:
In a system with 16GB memory and an 8GB CMA region reserved by
hugetlb_cma, if we first allocate 10GB THPs and mlock them (so some THPs
are allocated in the CMA region and mlocked), reserving 6 1GB hugetlb
pages via /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/nr_hugepages will
get stuck (looping in too_many_isolated function) until we kill either
task. With the patch applied, oom will kill the application with 10GB
THPs and let hugetlb page reservation finish.

mm: proactive compaction
For some applications, we need to allocate almost all memory as hugepages.
However, on a running system, higher-order allocations can fail if the
memory is fragmented. Linux kernel currently does on-demand compaction as
we request more hugepages, but this style of compaction incurs very high
latency. Experiments with one-time full memory compaction (followed by
hugepage allocations) show that kernel is able to restore a highly
fragmented memory state to a fairly compacted memory state within <1 sec
for a 32G system. Such data suggests that a more proactive compaction can
help us allocate a large fraction of memory as hugepages keeping
allocation latencies low.
For a more proactive compaction, the approach taken here is to define a
new sysctl called 'vm.compaction_proactiveness' which dictates bounds for
external fragmentation which kcompactd tries to maintain.
The tunable takes a value in range [0, 100], with a default of 20.
Note that a previous version of this patch [1] was found to introduce too
many tunables (per-order extfrag{low, high}), but this one reduces them to
just one sysctl. Also, the new tunable is an opaque value instead of
asking for specific bounds of "external fragmentation", which would have
been difficult to estimate. The internal interpretation of this opaque
value allows for future fine-tuning.
Currently, we use a simple translation from this tunable to [low, high]
"fragmentation score" thresholds (low=100-proactiveness, high=low+10%).
The score for a node is defined as weighted mean of per-zone external
fragmentation. A zone's present_pages determines its weight.
To periodically check per-node score, we reuse per-node kcompactd threads,
which are woken up every 500 milliseconds to check the same. If a node's
score exceeds its high threshold (as derived from user-provided
proactiveness value), proactive compaction is started until its score
reaches its low threshold value. By default, proactiveness is set to 20,
which implies threshold values of low=80 and high=90.
This patch is largely based on ideas from Michal Hocko [2]. See also the
LWN article [3].
Performance data
================
System: x64_64, 1T RAM, 80 CPU threads.
Kernel: 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch
echo madvise | sudo tee /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
echo madvise | sudo tee /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag
Before starting the driver, the system was fragmented from a userspace
program that allocates all memory and then for each 2M aligned section,
frees 3/4 of base pages using munmap. The workload is mainly anonymous
userspace pages, which are easy to move around. I intentionally avoided
unmovable pages in this test to see how much latency we incur when
hugepage allocations hit direct compaction.
1. Kernel hugepage allocation latencies
With the system in such a fragmented state, a kernel driver then allocates
as many hugepages as possible and measures allocation latency:
(all latency values are in microseconds)
- With vanilla 5.6.0-rc3
percentile latency
–––––––––– –––––––

Total 2M hugepages allocated = 383859 (749G worth of hugepages out of 762G
total free => 98% of free memory could be allocated as hugepages)

Total 2M hugepages allocated = 384105 (750G worth of hugepages out of 762G
total free => 98% of free memory could be allocated as hugepages)
2. JAVA heap allocation
In this test, we first fragment memory using the same method as for (1).
Then, we start a Java process with a heap size set to 700G and request the
heap to be allocated with THP hugepages. We also set THP to madvise to
allow hugepage backing of this heap.
/usr/bin/time
java -Xms700G -Xmx700G -XX:+UseTransparentHugePages -XX:+AlwaysPreTouch
The above command allocates 700G of Java heap using hugepages.
- With vanilla 5.6.0-rc3
17.39user 1666.48system 27:37.89elapsed
- With 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch, with proactiveness=20
8.35user 194.58system 3:19.62elapsed
Elapsed time remains around 3:15, as proactiveness is further increased.
Note that proactive compaction happens throughout the runtime of these
workloads. The situation of one-time compaction, sufficient to supply
hugepages for following allocation stream, can probably happen for more
extreme proactiveness values, like 80 or 90.
In the above Java workload, proactiveness is set to 20. The test starts
with a node's score of 80 or higher, depending on the delay between the
fragmentation step and starting the benchmark, which gives more-or-less
time for the initial round of compaction. As t he benchmark consumes
hugepages, node's score quickly rises above the high threshold (90) and
proactive compaction starts again, which brings down the score to the low
threshold level (80). Repeat.
bpftrace also confirms proactive compaction running 20+ times during the
runtime of this Java benchmark. kcompactd threads consume 100% of one of
the CPUs while it tries to bring a node's score within thresholds.
Backoff behavior
================
Above workloads produce a memory state which is easy to compact. However,
if memory is filled with unmovable pages, proactive compaction should
essentially back off. To test this aspect:
- Created a kernel driver that allocates almost all memory as hugepages
followed by freeing first 3/4 of each hugepage.
- Set proactiveness=40
- Note that proactive_compact_node() is deferred maximum number of times
with HPAGE_FRAG_CHECK_INTERVAL_MSEC of wait between each check
(=> ~30 seconds between retries).

mm, compaction: make capture control handling safe wrt interrupts

"While stressing compaction, one run oopsed on NULL capc->cc in

".cc = &cc" implemented by mov %rbx,-0xb0(%rbp) immediately before
callq compact_zone - long after the "current->capture_control =
&capc". An interrupt in between those finds capc->cc NULL (zeroed by
an earlier rep stos).
This could presumably be fixed by a barrier() before setting
current->capture_control in compact_zone_order(); but would also need
more care on return from compact_zone(), in order not to risk leaking
a page captured by interrupt just before capture_control is reset.
Maybe that is the preferable fix, but I felt safer for task_capc() to
exclude the rather surprising possibility of capture at interrupt
time"
I have checked that gcc10 also behaves the same.
The advantage of fix in compact_zone_order() is that we don't add
another test in the page freeing hot path, and that it might prevent
future problems if we stop exposing pointers to uninitialized structures
in current task.
So this patch implements the suggestion for compact_zone_order() with
barrier() (and WRITE_ONCE() to prevent store tearing) for setting
current->capture_control, and prevents page leaking with
WRITE_ONCE/READ_ONCE in the proper order.

Pageblock migrate type is encoded in GFP flags, just as zone_type and zonelist.

mm/page_alloc: integrate classzone_idx and high_zoneidx
classzone_idx is just different name for high_zoneidx now. So, integrate them and add some comment to struct alloc_context in order to reduce future confusion about the meaning of this variable. The accessor, ac_classzone_idx() is also removed since it isn't needed after integration. In addition to integration, this patch also renames high_zoneidx to highest_zoneidx since it represents more precise meaning.

mm: memmap_init: iterate over memblock regions rather that check each PFN
When called during boot the memmap_init_zone() function checks if each PFN is valid and actually belongs to the node being initialized using early_pfn_valid() and early_pfn_in_nid(). Each such check may cost up to O(log(n)) where n is the number of memory banks, so for large amount of memory overall time spent in early_pfn*() becomes substantial. Since the information is anyway present in memblock, we can iterate over memblock memory regions in memmap_init() and only call memmap_init_zone() for PFN ranges that are know to be valid and in the appropriate node.

mm/swap: Use local_lock for protection
The various struct pagevec per CPU variables are protected by disabling either preemption or interrupts across the critical sections. Inside these sections spinlocks have to be acquired. These spinlocks are regular spinlock_t types which are converted to "sleeping" spinlocks on PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels. Obviously sleeping locks cannot be acquired in preemption or interrupt disabled sections. local locks provide a trivial way to substitute preempt and interrupt disable instances. On a non PREEMPT_RT enabled kernel local_lock() maps to preempt_disable() and local_lock_irq() to local_irq_disable(). Create lru_rotate_pvecs containing the pagevec and the locallock. Create lru_pvecs containing the remaining pagevecs and the locallock. Add lru_add_drain_cpu_zone() which is used from compact_zone() to avoid exporting the pvec structure. Change the relevant call sites to acquire these locks instead of using preempt_disable() / get_cpu() / get_cpu_var() and local_irq_disable() / local_irq_save(). There is neither a functional change nor a change in the generated binary code for non PREEMPT_RT enabled non-debug kernels. When lockdep is enabled local locks have lockdep maps embedded. These allow lockdep to validate the protections, i.e. inappropriate usage of a preemption only protected sections would result in a lockdep warning while the same problem would not be noticed with a plain preempt_disable() based protection. local locks also improve readability as they provide a named scope for the protections while preempt/interrupt disable are opaque scopeless. Finally local locks allow PREEMPT_RT to substitute them with real locking primitives to ensure the correctness of operation in a fully preemptible kernel.

sysctl: pass kernel pointers to ->proc_handler
Instead of having all the sysctl handlers deal with user pointers, which is rather hairy in terms of the BPF interaction, copy the input to and from userspace in common code. This also means that the strings are always NUL-terminated by the common code, making the API a little bit safer. As most handler just pass through the data to one of the common handlers a lot of the changes are mechnical.

mm, compaction: fix wrong pfn handling in __reset_isolation_pfn()
Florian and Dave reported [1] a NULL pointer dereference in
__reset_isolation_pfn(). While the exact cause is unclear, staring at
the code revealed two bugs, which might be related.
One bug is that if zone starts in the middle of pageblock, block_page
might correspond to different pfn than block_pfn, and then the
pfn_valid_within() checks will check different pfn's than those accessed
via struct page. This might result in acessing an unitialized page in
CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE configs.
The other bug is that end_page refers to the first page of next
pageblock and not last page of current pageblock. The online and valid
check is then wrong and with sections, the while (page < end_page) loop
might wander off actual struct page arrays.

mm: compaction: avoid 100% CPU usage during compaction when a task is killed
"howaboutsynergy" reported via kernel buzilla number 204165 that
compact_zone_order was consuming 100% CPU during a stress test for
prolonged periods of time. Specifically the following command, which
should exit in 10 seconds, was taking an excessive time to finish while
the CPU was pegged at 100%.
stress -m 220 --vm-bytes 1000000000 --timeout 10
Tracing indicated a pattern as follows

Note that compaction is entered in rapid succession while scanning and
isolating nothing. The problem is that when a task that is compacting
receives a fatal signal, it retries indefinitely instead of exiting
while making no progress as a fatal signal is pending.
It's not easy to trigger this condition although enabling zswap helps on
the basis that the timing is altered. A very small window has to be hit
for the problem to occur (signal delivered while compacting and
isolating a PFN for migration that is not aligned to SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX).
This was reproduced locally -- 16G single socket system, 8G swap, 30%
zswap configured, vm-bytes 22000000000 using Colin Kings stress-ng
implementation from github running in a loop until the problem hits).
Tracing recorded the problem occurring almost 200K times in a short
window. With this patch, the problem hit 4 times but the task existed
normally instead of consuming CPU.
This problem has existed for some time but it was made worse by commit

mm, compaction: make sure we isolate a valid PFN
When we have holes in a normal memory zone, we could endup having
cached_migrate_pfns which may not necessarily be valid, under heavy memory
pressure with swapping enabled ( via __reset_isolation_suitable(),
triggered by kswapd).
Later if we fail to find a page via fast_isolate_freepages(), we may end
up using the migrate_pfn we started the search with, as valid page. This

The issue was reported on an arm64 server with 128GB with holes in the
zone (e.g, [32GB@4GB, 96GB@544GB]), with a swap device enabled, while
running 100 KVM guest instances.
This patch fixes the issue by ensuring that the page belongs to a valid
PFN when we fallback to using the lower limit of the scan range upon
failure in fast_isolate_freepages().

mm, compaction: capture a page under direct compaction
Compaction is inherently race-prone as a suitable page freed during
compaction can be allocated by any parallel task. This patch uses a
capture_control structure to isolate a page immediately when it is freed
by a direct compactor in the slow path of the page allocator. The
intent is to avoid redundant scanning.

Latency is only moderately affected but the devil is in the details. A
closer examination indicates that base page fault latency is reduced but
latency of huge pages is increased as it takes creater care to succeed.
Part of the "problem" is that allocation success rates are close to 100%

mm, compaction: be selective about what pageblocks to clear skip hints
Pageblock hints are cleared when compaction restarts or kswapd makes enough progress that it can sleep but it's over-eager in that the bit is cleared for migration sources with no LRU pages and migration targets with no free pages. As pageblock skip hint flushes are relatively rare and out-of-band with respect to kswapd, this patch makes a few more expensive checks to see if it's appropriate to even clear the bit. Every pageblock that is not cleared will avoid 512 pages being scanned unnecessarily on x86-64. The impact is variable with different workloads showing small differences in latency, success rates and scan rates. This is expected as clearing the hints is not that common but doing a small amount of work out-of-band to avoid a large amount of work in-band later is generally a good thing.

mm, compaction: sample pageblocks for free pages
Once fast searching finishes, there is a possibility that the linear
scanner is scanning full blocks found by the fast scanner earlier. This
patch uses an adaptive stride to sample pageblocks for free pages. The
more consecutive full pageblocks encountered, the larger the stride
until a pageblock with free pages is found. The scanners might meet
slightly sooner but it is an acceptable risk given that the search of
the free lists may still encounter the pages and adjust the cached PFN
of the free scanner accordingly.

mm, compaction: round-robin the order while searching the free lists for a target
As compaction proceeds and creates high-order blocks, the free list search gets less efficient as the larger blocks are used as compaction targets. Eventually, the larger blocks will be behind the migration scanner for partially migrated pageblocks and the search fails. This patch round-robins what orders are searched so that larger blocks can be ignored and find smaller blocks that can be used as migration targets. The overall impact was small on 1-socket but it avoids corner cases where the migration/free scanners meet prematurely or situations where many of the pageblocks encountered by the free scanner are almost full instead of being properly packed. Previous testing had indicated that without this patch there were occasional large spikes in the free scanner without this patch.

mm, compaction: reduce premature advancement of the migration target scanner
The fast isolation of free pages allows the cached PFN of the free
scanner to advance faster than necessary depending on the contents of
the free list. The key is that fast_isolate_freepages() can update
zone->compact_cached_free_pfn via isolate_freepages_block(). When the
fast search fails, the linear scan can start from a point that has
skipped valid migration targets, particularly pageblocks with just
low-order free pages. This can cause the migration source/target
scanners to meet prematurely causing a reset.
This patch starts by avoiding an update of the pageblock skip
information and cached PFN from isolate_freepages_block() and puts the
responsibility of updating that information in the callers. The fast
scanner will update the cached PFN if and only if it finds a block that
is higher than the existing cached PFN and sets the skip if the
pageblock is full or nearly full. The linear scanner will update
skipped information and the cached PFN only when a block is completely
scanned. The total impact is that the free scanner advances more slowly
as it is primarily driven by the linear scanner instead of the fast
search.

The impact to latency is higher than the last version but it appears to
be due to a slight increase in the free scan rates which is a potential
side-effect of the patch. However, this is necessary for later patches
that are more careful about how pageblocks are treated as earlier
iterations of those patches hit corner cases where the restarts were
punishing and very visible.

mm, compaction: do not consider a need to reschedule as contention
Scanning on large machines can take a considerable length of time and
eventually need to be rescheduled. This is treated as an abort event
but that's not appropriate as the attempt is likely to be retried after
making numerous checks and taking another cycle through the page
allocator. This patch will check the need to reschedule if necessary
but continue the scanning.
The main benefit is reduced scanning when compaction is taking a long
time or the machine is over-saturated. It also avoids an unnecessary
exit of compaction that ends up being retried by the page allocator in
the outer loop.
