mm: vmscan: consolidate shrinker_maps handling code
The shrinker map management is not purely memcg specific, it is at the intersection between memory cgroup and shrinkers. It's allocation and assignment of a structure, and the only memcg bit is the map is being stored in a memcg structure. So move the shrinker_maps handling code into vmscan.c for tighter integration with shrinker code, and remove the "memcg_" prefix. There is no functional change.

mm: vmscan: use nid from shrink_control for tracepoint
Patch series "Make shrinker's nr_deferred memcg aware", v10.
Recently huge amount one-off slab drop was seen on some vfs metadata
heavy workloads, it turned out there were huge amount accumulated
nr_deferred objects seen by the shrinker.
On our production machine, I saw absurd number of nr_deferred shown as
the below tracing result:
<...>-48776 [032] .... 27970562.458916: mm_shrink_slab_start:
super_cache_scan+0x0/0x1a0 ffff9a83046f3458: nid: 0 objects to shrink
2531805877005 gfp_flags GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE pgs_scanned 32 lru_pgs
9300 cache items 1667 delta 11 total_scan 833
There are 2.5 trillion deferred objects on one node, assuming all of them
are dentry (192 bytes per object), so the total size of deferred on one
node is ~480TB. It is definitely ridiculous.
I managed to reproduce this problem with kernel build workload plus
negative dentry generator.
First step, run the below kernel build test script:
NR_CPUS=`cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep -e processor | wc -l`
cd /root/Buildarea/linux-stable
for i in `seq 1500`; do
cgcreate -g memory:kern_build
echo 4G > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/kern_build/memory.limit_in_bytes
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
cgexec -g memory:kern_build make clean > /dev/null 2>&1
cgexec -g memory:kern_build make -j$NR_CPUS > /dev/null 2>&1
cgdelete -g memory:kern_build
done
Then run the below negative dentry generator script:
NR_CPUS=`cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep -e processor | wc -l`
mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test
echo $$ > /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/test/tasks
for i in `seq $NR_CPUS`; do
while true; do
FILE=`head /dev/urandom | tr -dc A-Za-z0-9 | head -c 64`
cat $FILE 2>/dev/null
done &
done
Then kswapd will shrink half of dentry cache in just one loop as the below
tracing result showed:
kswapd0-475 [028] .... 305968.252561: mm_shrink_slab_start: super_cache_scan+0x0/0x190 0000000024acf00c: nid: 0 objects to shrink 4994376020 gfp_flags GFP_KERNEL cache items 93689873 delta 45746 total_scan 46844936 priority 12
kswapd0-475 [021] .... 306013.099399: mm_shrink_slab_end: super_cache_scan+0x0/0x190 0000000024acf00c: nid: 0 unused scan count 4994376020 new scan count 4947576838 total_scan 8 last shrinker return val 46844928
There were huge number of deferred objects before the shrinker was called,
the behavior does match the code but it might be not desirable from the
user's stand of point.
The excessive amount of nr_deferred might be accumulated due to various
reasons, for example:
* GFP_NOFS allocation
* Significant times of small amount scan (< scan_batch, 1024 for vfs
metadata)
However the LRUs of slabs are per memcg (memcg-aware shrinkers) but the
deferred objects is per shrinker, this may have some bad effects:
* Poor isolation among memcgs. Some memcgs which happen to have
frequent limit reclaim may get nr_deferred accumulated to a huge number,
then other innocent memcgs may take the fall. In our case the main
workload was hit.
* Unbounded deferred objects. There is no cap for deferred objects, it
can outgrow ridiculously as the tracing result showed.
* Easy to get out of control. Although shrinkers take into account
deferred objects, but it can go out of control easily. One
misconfigured memcg could incur absurd amount of deferred objects in a
period of time.
* Sort of reclaim problems, i.e. over reclaim, long reclaim latency,
etc. There may be hundred GB slab caches for vfe metadata heavy
workload, shrink half of them may take minutes. We observed latency
spike due to the prolonged reclaim.
These issues also have been discussed in
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20200916185823.5347-1-shy828301@gmail.com/.
The patchset is the outcome of that discussion.
So this patchset makes nr_deferred per-memcg to tackle the problem. It
does:
* Have memcg_shrinker_deferred per memcg per node, just like what
shrinker_map does. Instead it is an atomic_long_t array, each element
represent one shrinker even though the shrinker is not memcg aware, this
simplifies the implementation. For memcg aware shrinkers, the deferred
objects are just accumulated to its own memcg. The shrinkers just see
nr_deferred from its own memcg. Non memcg aware shrinkers still use
global nr_deferred from struct shrinker.
* Once the memcg is offlined, its nr_deferred will be reparented to its
parent along with LRUs.
* The root memcg has memcg_shrinker_deferred array too. It simplifies
the handling of reparenting to root memcg.
* Cap nr_deferred to 2x of the length of lru. The idea is borrowed from
Dave Chinner's series
(https://lore.kernel.org/linux-xfs/20191031234618.15403-1-david@fromorbit.com/)
The downside is each memcg has to allocate extra memory to store the
nr_deferred array. On our production environment, there are typically
around 40 shrinkers, so each memcg needs ~320 bytes. 10K memcgs would
need ~3.2MB memory. It seems fine.
We have been running the patched kernel on some hosts of our fleet (test
and production) for months, it works very well. The monitor data shows
the working set is sustained as expected.
This patch (of 13):
The tracepoint's nid should show what node the shrink happens on, the
start tracepoint uses nid from shrinkctl, but the nid might be set to 0
before end tracepoint if the shrinker is not NUMA aware, so the tracing
log may show the shrink happens on one node but end up on the other node.
It seems confusing. And the following patch will remove using nid
directly in do_shrink_slab(), this patch also helps cleanup the code.

mm: make alloc_contig_range handle in-use hugetlb pages
alloc_contig_range() will fail if it finds a HugeTLB page within the range, without a chance to handle them. Since HugeTLB pages can be migrated as any LRU or Movable page, it does not make sense to bail out without trying. Enable the interface to recognize in-use HugeTLB pages so we can migrate them, and have much better chances to succeed the call.

mm/vmscan: restore zone_reclaim_mode ABI
I went to go add a new RECLAIM_* mode for the zone_reclaim_mode sysctl.
Like a good kernel developer, I also went to go update the
documentation. I noticed that the bits in the documentation didn't
match the bits in the #defines.
The VM never explicitly checks the RECLAIM_ZONE bit. The bit is,
however implicitly checked when checking 'node_reclaim_mode==0'. The
RECLAIM_ZONE #define was removed in a cleanup. That, by itself is fine.
But, when the bit was removed (bit 0) the _other_ bit locations also got
changed. That's not OK because the bit values are documented to mean
one specific thing. Users surely do not expect the meaning to change
from kernel to kernel.
The end result is that if someone had a script that did:
sysctl vm.zone_reclaim_mode=1
it would have gone from enabling node reclaim for clean unmapped pages
to writing out pages during node reclaim after the commit in question.
That's not great.
Put the bits back the way they were and add a comment so something like
this is a bit harder to do again. Update the documentation to make it
clear that the first bit is ignored.

mm: add __clear_page_lru_flags() to replace page_off_lru()
Similar to page_off_lru(), the new function does non-atomic clearing of PageLRU() in addition to PageActive() and PageUnevictable(), on a page that has no references left. If PageActive() and PageUnevictable() are both set, refuse to clear either and leave them to bad_page(). This is a behavior change that is meant to help debug.

mm/swap.c: don't pass "enum lru_list" to del_page_from_lru_list()
The parameter is redundant in the sense that it can be potentially extracted from the "struct page" parameter by page_lru(). We need to make sure that existing PageActive() or PageUnevictable() remains until the function returns. A few places don't conform, and simple reordering fixes them. This patch may have left page_off_lru() seemingly odd, and we'll take care of it in the next patch.

mm/vmscan.c: use add_page_to_lru_list()
Patch series "mm: lru related cleanups", v2.
The cleanups are intended to reduce the verbosity in lru list operations
and make them less error-prone. A typical example would be how the
patches change __activate_page():
static void __activate_page(struct page *page, struct lruvec *lruvec)
{
if (!PageActive(page) && !PageUnevictable(page)) {
- int lru = page_lru_base_type(page);
int nr_pages = thp_nr_pages(page);
- del_page_from_lru_list(page, lruvec, lru);
+ del_page_from_lru_list(page, lruvec);
SetPageActive(page);
- lru += LRU_ACTIVE;
- add_page_to_lru_list(page, lruvec, lru);
+ add_page_to_lru_list(page, lruvec);
trace_mm_lru_activate(page);
There are a few more places like __activate_page() and they are
unnecessarily repetitive in terms of figuring out which list a page should
be added onto or deleted from. And with the duplicated code removed, they
are easier to read, IMO.
Patch 1 to 5 basically cover the above. Patch 6 and 7 make code more
robust by improving bug reporting. Patch 8, 9 and 10 take care of some
dangling helpers left in header files.
This patch (of 10):
There is add_page_to_lru_list(), and move_pages_to_lru() should reuse it,
not duplicate it.

mm: don't put pinned pages into the swap cache
So technically there is nothing wrong with adding a pinned page to the
swap cache, but the pinning obviously means that the page can't actually
be free'd right now anyway, so it's a bit pointless.
However, the real problem is not with it being a bit pointless: the real
issue is that after we've added it to the swap cache, we'll try to unmap
the page. That will succeed, because the code in mm/rmap.c doesn't know
or care about pinned pages.
Even the unmapping isn't fatal per se, since the page will stay around
in memory due to the pinning, and we do hold the connection to it using
the swap cache. But when we then touch it next and take a page fault,
the logic in do_swap_page() will map it back into the process as a
possibly read-only page, and we'll then break the page association on
the next COW fault.
Honestly, this issue could have been fixed in any of those other places:
(a) we could refuse to unmap a pinned page (which makes conceptual
sense), or (b) we could make sure to re-map a pinned page writably in
do_swap_page(), or (c) we could just make do_wp_page() not COW the
pinned page (which was what we historically did before that "mm:
do_wp_page() simplification" commit).
But while all of them are equally valid models for breaking this chain,
not putting pinned pages into the swap cache in the first place is the
simplest one by far.
It's also the safest one: the reason why do_wp_page() was changed in the
first place was that getting the "can I re-use this page" wrong is so
fraught with errors. If you do it wrong, you end up with an incorrectly
shared page.
As a result, using "page_maybe_dma_pinned()" in either do_wp_page() or
do_swap_page() would be a serious bug since it is only a (very good)
heuristic. Re-using the page requires a hard black-and-white rule with
no room for ambiguity.
In contrast, saying "this page is very likely dma pinned, so let's not
add it to the swap cache and try to unmap it" is an obviously safe thing
to do, and if the heuristic might very rarely be a false positive, no
harm is done.

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/lru: introduce TestClearPageLRU()
Currently lru_lock still guards both lru list and page's lru bit, that's ok. but if we want to use specific lruvec lock on the page, we need to pin down the page's lruvec/memcg during locking. Just taking lruvec lock first may be undermined by the page's memcg charge/migration. To fix this problem, we will clear the lru bit out of locking and use it as pin down action to block the page isolation in memcg changing. So now a standard steps of page isolation is following: 1, get_page(); #pin the page avoid to be free 2, TestClearPageLRU(); #block other isolation like memcg change 3, spin_lock on lru_lock; #serialize lru list access 4, delete page from lru list; This patch start with the first part: TestClearPageLRU, which combines PageLRU check and ClearPageLRU into a macro func TestClearPageLRU. This function will be used as page isolation precondition to prevent other isolations some where else. Then there are may !PageLRU page on lru list, need to remove BUG() checking accordingly. There 2 rules for lru bit now: 1, the lru bit still indicate if a page on lru list, just in some temporary moment(isolating), the page may have no lru bit when it's on lru list. but the page still must be on lru list when the lru bit set. 2, have to remove lru bit before delete it from lru list. As Andrew Morton mentioned this change would dirty cacheline for a page which isn't on the LRU.

mm/vmscan: fix infinite loop in drop_slab_node
We have observed that drop_caches can take a considerable amount of
time (<put data here>). Especially when there are many memcgs involved
because they are adding an additional overhead.
It is quite unfortunate that the operation cannot be interrupted by a
signal currently. Add a check for fatal signals into the main loop so
that userspace can control early bailout.
There are two reasons:
1. We have too many memcgs, even though one object freed in one memcg,
the sum of object is bigger than 10.
2. We spend a lot of time in traverse memcg once. So, the memcg who
traversed at the first have been freed many objects. Traverse memcg
next time, the freed count bigger than 10 again.
We can get the following info through 'ps':
root:~# ps -aux | grep drop
root 357956 ... R Aug25 21119854:55 echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

mm: fix check_move_unevictable_pages() on THP
check_move_unevictable_pages() is used in making unevictable shmem pages
evictable: by shmem_unlock_mapping(), drm_gem_check_release_pagevec() and
i915/gem check_release_pagevec(). Those may pass down subpages of a huge
page, when /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled is "force".
That does not crash or warn at present, but the accounting of vmstats
unevictable_pgs_scanned and unevictable_pgs_rescued is inconsistent:
scanned being incremented on each subpage, rescued only on the head (since
tails already appear evictable once the head has been updated).

mm: memcg: fix memcg reclaim soft lockup
We've met softlockup with "CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE=y", when the target memcg doesn't have any reclaimable memory. It can be easily reproduced as below: watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 111s![memcg_test:2204] CPU: 0 PID: 2204 Comm: memcg_test Not tainted 5.9.0-rc2+ #12 Call Trace: shrink_lruvec+0x49f/0x640 shrink_node+0x2a6/0x6f0 do_try_to_free_pages+0xe9/0x3e0 try_to_free_mem_cgroup_pages+0xef/0x1f0 try_charge+0x2c1/0x750 mem_cgroup_charge+0xd7/0x240 __add_to_page_cache_locked+0x2fd/0x370 add_to_page_cache_lru+0x4a/0xc0 pagecache_get_page+0x10b/0x2f0 filemap_fault+0x661/0xad0 ext4_filemap_fault+0x2c/0x40 __do_fault+0x4d/0xf9 handle_mm_fault+0x1080/0x1790 It only happens on our 1-vcpu instances, because there's no chance for oom reaper to run to reclaim the to-be-killed process. Add a cond_resched() at the upper shrink_node_memcgs() to solve this issue, this will mean that we will get a scheduling point for each memcg in the reclaimed hierarchy without any dependency on the reclaimable memory in that memcg thus making it more predictable.

mm/vmscan: protect the workingset on anonymous LRU
In current implementation, newly created or swap-in anonymous page is started on active list. Growing active list results in rebalancing active/inactive list so old pages on active list are demoted to inactive list. Hence, the page on active list isn't protected at all. Following is an example of this situation. Assume that 50 hot pages on active list. Numbers denote the number of pages on active/inactive list (active | inactive). 1. 50 hot pages on active list 50(h) | 0 2. workload: 50 newly created (used-once) pages 50(uo) | 50(h) 3. workload: another 50 newly created (used-once) pages 50(uo) | 50(uo), swap-out 50(h) This patch tries to fix this issue. Like as file LRU, newly created or swap-in anonymous pages will be inserted to the inactive list. They are promoted to active list if enough reference happens. This simple modification changes the above example as following. 1. 50 hot pages on active list 50(h) | 0 2. workload: 50 newly created (used-once) pages 50(h) | 50(uo) 3. workload: another 50 newly created (used-once) pages 50(h) | 50(uo), swap-out 50(uo) As you can see, hot pages on active list would be protected. Note that, this implementation has a drawback that the page cannot be promoted and will be swapped-out if re-access interval is greater than the size of inactive list but less than the size of total(active+inactive). To solve this potential issue, following patch will apply workingset detection similar to the one that's already applied to file LRU.

mm/vmscan: make active/inactive ratio as 1:1 for anon lru
Patch series "workingset protection/detection on the anonymous LRU list", v7.
* PROBLEM
In current implementation, newly created or swap-in anonymous page is
started on the active list. Growing the active list results in
rebalancing active/inactive list so old pages on the active list are
demoted to the inactive list. Hence, hot page on the active list isn't
protected at all.
Following is an example of this situation.
Assume that 50 hot pages on active list and system can contain total 100
pages. Numbers denote the number of pages on active/inactive list (active
| inactive). (h) stands for hot pages and (uo) stands for used-once
pages.
1. 50 hot pages on active list
50(h) | 0
2. workload: 50 newly created (used-once) pages
50(uo) | 50(h)
3. workload: another 50 newly created (used-once) pages
50(uo) | 50(uo), swap-out 50(h)
As we can see, hot pages are swapped-out and it would cause swap-in later.
* SOLUTION
Since this is what we want to avoid, this patchset implements workingset
protection. Like as the file LRU list, newly created or swap-in anonymous
page is started on the inactive list. Also, like as the file LRU list, if
enough reference happens, the page will be promoted. This simple
modification changes the above example as following.
1. 50 hot pages on active list
50(h) | 0
2. workload: 50 newly created (used-once) pages
50(h) | 50(uo)
3. workload: another 50 newly created (used-once) pages
50(h) | 50(uo), swap-out 50(uo)
hot pages remains in the active list. :)
* EXPERIMENT
I tested this scenario on my test bed and confirmed that this problem
happens on current implementation. I also checked that it is fixed by
this patchset.
* SUBJECT
workingset detection
* PROBLEM
Later part of the patchset implements the workingset detection for the
anonymous LRU list. There is a corner case that workingset protection
could cause thrashing. If we can avoid thrashing by workingset detection,
we can get the better performance.
Following is an example of thrashing due to the workingset protection.
1. 50 hot pages on active list
50(h) | 0
2. workload: 50 newly created (will be hot) pages
50(h) | 50(wh)
3. workload: another 50 newly created (used-once) pages
50(h) | 50(uo), swap-out 50(wh)
4. workload: 50 (will be hot) pages
50(h) | 50(wh), swap-in 50(wh)
5. workload: another 50 newly created (used-once) pages
50(h) | 50(uo), swap-out 50(wh)
6. repeat 4, 5
Without workingset detection, this kind of workload cannot be promoted and
thrashing happens forever.
* SOLUTION
Therefore, this patchset implements workingset detection. All the
infrastructure for workingset detecion is already implemented, so there is
not much work to do. First, extend workingset detection code to deal with
the anonymous LRU list. Then, make swap cache handles the exceptional
value for the shadow entry. Lastly, install/retrieve the shadow value
into/from the swap cache and check the refault distance.
* EXPERIMENT
I made a test program to imitates above scenario and confirmed that
problem exists. Then, I checked that this patchset fixes it.
My test setup is a virtual machine with 8 cpus and 6100MB memory. But,
the amount of the memory that the test program can use is about 280 MB.
This is because the system uses large ram-backed swap and large ramdisk to
capture the trace.
Test scenario is like as below.
1. allocate cold memory (512MB)
2. allocate hot-1 memory (96MB)
3. activate hot-1 memory (96MB)
4. allocate another hot-2 memory (96MB)
5. access cold memory (128MB)
6. access hot-2 memory (96MB)
7. repeat 5, 6
Since hot-1 memory (96MB) is on the active list, the inactive list can
contains roughly 190MB pages. hot-2 memory's re-access interval (96+128
MB) is more 190MB, so it cannot be promoted without workingset detection
and swap-in/out happens repeatedly. With this patchset, workingset
detection works and promotion happens. Therefore, swap-in/out occurs
less.
Here is the result. (average of 5 runs)
type swap-in swap-out
base 863240 989945
patch 681565 809273
As we can see, patched kernel do less swap-in/out.
* OVERALL TEST (ebizzy using modified random function)
ebizzy is the test program that main thread allocates lots of memory and
child threads access them randomly during the given times. Swap-in will
happen if allocated memory is larger than the system memory.
The random function that represents the zipf distribution is used to make
hot/cold memory. Hot/cold ratio is controlled by the parameter. If the
parameter is high, hot memory is accessed much larger than cold one. If
the parameter is low, the number of access on each memory would be
similar. I uses various parameters in order to show the effect of
patchset on various hot/cold ratio workload.
My test setup is a virtual machine with 8 cpus, 1024 MB memory and 5120 MB
ram swap.
Result format is as following.
param: 1-1024-0.1
- 1 (number of thread)
- 1024 (allocated memory size, MB)
- 0.1 (zipf distribution alpha,
0.1 works like as roughly uniform random,
1.3 works like as small portion of memory is hot and the others are cold)
pswpin: smaller is better
std: standard deviation
improvement: negative is better

As we can see, all the cases show improvement. Especially, test case with
zipf distribution 1.3 show more improvements. It means that if there is a
hot/cold tendency in anon pages, this patchset works better.
This patch (of 6):
Current implementation of LRU management for anonymous page has some
problems. Most important one is that it doesn't protect the workingset,
that is, pages on the active LRU list. Although, this problem will be
fixed in the following patchset, the preparation is required and this
patch does it.
What following patch does is to implement workingset protection. After
the following patchset, newly created or swap-in pages will start their
lifetime on the inactive list. If inactive list is too small, there is
not enough chance to be referenced and the page cannot become the
workingset.
In order to provide the newly anonymous or swap-in pages enough chance to
be referenced again, this patch makes active/inactive LRU ratio as 1:1.
This is just a temporary measure. Later patch in the series introduces
workingset detection for anonymous LRU that will be used to better decide
if pages should start on the active and inactive list. Afterwards this
patch is effectively reverted.

The vmstat pgrefill is useful together with pgscan and pgsteal stats to measure the reclaim efficiency. However vmstat's pgrefill is not updated consistently at system level. It gets updated for both global and memcg reclaim however pgscan and pgsteal are updated for only global reclaim. So, update pgrefill only for global reclaim.

mm: memcontrol: don't count limit-setting reclaim as memory pressure
When an outside process lowers one of the memory limits of a cgroup (or uses the force_empty knob in cgroup1), direct reclaim is performed in the context of the write(), in order to directly enforce the new limit and have it being met by the time the write() returns. Currently, this reclaim activity is accounted as memory pressure in the cgroup that the writer(!) belongs to. This is unexpected. It specifically causes problems for senpai (https://github.com/facebookincubator/senpai), which is an agent that routinely adjusts the memory limits and performs associated reclaim work in tens or even hundreds of cgroups running on the host. The cgroup that senpai is running in itself will report elevated levels of memory pressure, even though it itself is under no memory shortage or any sort of distress. Move the psi annotation from the central cgroup reclaim function to callsites in the allocation context, and thereby no longer count any limit-setting reclaim as memory pressure. If the newly set limit causes the workload inside the cgroup into direct reclaim, that of course will continue to count as memory pressure.

mm, memcg: decouple e{low,min} state mutations from protection checks
mem_cgroup_protected currently is both used to set effective low and min and return a mem_cgroup_protection based on the result. As a user, this can be a little unexpected: it appears to be a simple predicate function, if not for the big warning in the comment above about the order in which it must be executed. This change makes it so that we separate the state mutations from the actual protection checks, which makes it more obvious where we need to be careful mutating internal state, and where we are simply checking and don't need to worry about that.

Patch series "mm, memcg: memory.{low,min} reclaim fix & cleanup", v4.
This series contains a fix for a edge case in my earlier protection
calculation patches, and a patch to make the area overall a little more
robust to hopefully help avoid this in future.
This patch (of 2):
A cgroup can have both memory protection and a memory limit to isolate it
from its siblings in both directions - for example, to prevent it from
being shrunk below 2G under high pressure from outside, but also from
growing beyond 4G under low pressure.

mm: memcg: convert vmstat slab counters to bytes
In order to prepare for per-object slab memory accounting, convert NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE and NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE vmstat items to bytes. To make it obvious, rename them to NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE_B and NR_SLAB_UNRECLAIMABLE_B (similar to NR_KERNEL_STACK_KB). Internally global and per-node counters are stored in pages, however memcg and lruvec counters are stored in bytes. This scheme may look weird, but only for now. As soon as slab pages will be shared between multiple cgroups, global and node counters will reflect the total number of slab pages. However memcg and lruvec counters will be used for per-memcg slab memory tracking, which will take separate kernel objects in the account. Keeping global and node counters in pages helps to avoid additional overhead. The size of slab memory shouldn't exceed 4Gb on 32-bit machines, so it will fit into atomic_long_t we use for vmstats.

mm: workingset: age nonresident information alongside anonymous pages
Patch series "fix for "mm: balance LRU lists based on relative
thrashing" patchset"
This patchset fixes some problems of the patchset, "mm: balance LRU
lists based on relative thrashing", which is now merged on the mainline.
Patch "mm: workingset: let cache workingset challenge anon fix" is the
result of discussion with Johannes. See following link.
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200520232525.798933-6-hannes@cmpxchg.org
And, the other two are minor things which are found when I try to rebase
my patchset.
This patch (of 3):
After ("mm: workingset: let cache workingset challenge anon fix"), we
compare refault distances to active_file + anon. But age of the
non-resident information is only driven by the file LRU. As a result,
we may overestimate the recency of any incoming refaults and activate
them too eagerly, causing unnecessary LRU churn in certain situations.
Make anon aging drive nonresident age as well to address that.

mm: vmscan: limit the range of LRU type balancing
When LRU cost only shows up on one list, we abruptly stop scanning that list altogether. That's an extreme reaction: by the time the other list starts thrashing and the pendulum swings back, we may have no recent age information on the first list anymore, and we could have significant latencies until the scanner has caught up. Soften this change in the feedback system by ensuring that no list receives less than a third of overall pressure, and only distribute the other 66% according to LRU cost. This ensures that we maintain a minimum rate of aging on the entire workingset while it's being pressured, while still allowing a generous rate of convergence when the relative sizes of the lists need to adjust.

mm: vmscan: reclaim writepage is IO cost
The VM tries to balance reclaim pressure between anon and file so as to reduce the amount of IO incurred due to the memory shortage. It already counts refaults and swapins, but in addition it should also count writepage calls during reclaim. For swap, this is obvious: it's IO that wouldn't have occurred if the anonymous memory hadn't been under memory pressure. From a relative balancing point of view this makes sense as well: even if anon is cold and reclaimable, a cache that isn't thrashing may have equally cold pages that don't require IO to reclaim. For file writeback, it's trickier: some of the reclaim writepage IO would have likely occurred anyway due to dirty expiration. But not all of it - premature writeback reduces batching and generates additional writes. Since the flushers are already woken up by the time the VM starts writing cache pages one by one, let's assume that we'e likely causing writes that wouldn't have happened without memory pressure. In addition, the per-page cost of IO would have probably been much cheaper if written in larger batches from the flusher thread rather than the single-page-writes from kswapd. For our purposes - getting the trend right to accelerate convergence on a stable state that doesn't require paging at all - this is sufficiently accurate. If we later wanted to optimize for sustained thrashing, we can still refine the measurements. Count all writepage calls from kswapd as IO cost toward the LRU that the page belongs to. Why do this dynamically? Don't we know in advance that anon pages require IO to reclaim, and so could build in a static bias? First, scanning is not the same as reclaiming. If all the anon pages are referenced, we may not swap for a while just because we're scanning the anon list. During this time, however, it's important that we age anonymous memory and the page cache at the same rate so that their hot-cold gradients are comparable. Everything else being equal, we still want to reclaim the coldest memory overall. Second, we keep copies in swap unless the page changes. If there is swap-backed data that's mostly read (tmpfs file) and has been swapped out before, we can reclaim it without incurring additional IO.

mm: vmscan: determine anon/file pressure balance at the reclaim root
We split the LRU lists into anon and file, and we rebalance the scan pressure between them when one of them begins thrashing: if the file cache experiences workingset refaults, we increase the pressure on anonymous pages; if the workload is stalled on swapins, we increase the pressure on the file cache instead. With cgroups and their nested LRU lists, we currently don't do this correctly. While recursive cgroup reclaim establishes a relative LRU order among the pages of all involved cgroups, LRU pressure balancing is done on an individual cgroup LRU level. As a result, when one cgroup is thrashing on the filesystem cache while a sibling may have cold anonymous pages, pressure doesn't get equalized between them. This patch moves LRU balancing decision to the root of reclaim - the same level where the LRU order is established. It does this by tracking LRU cost recursively, so that every level of the cgroup tree knows the aggregate LRU cost of all memory within its domain. When the page scanner calculates the scan balance for any given individual cgroup's LRU list, it uses the values from the ancestor cgroup that initiated the reclaim cycle. If one sibling is then thrashing on the cache, it will tip the pressure balance inside its ancestors, and the next hierarchical reclaim iteration will go more after the anon pages in the tree.

mm: balance LRU lists based on relative thrashing
Since the LRUs were split into anon and file lists, the VM has been
balancing between page cache and anonymous pages based on per-list ratios
of scanned vs. rotated pages. In most cases that tips page reclaim
towards the list that is easier to reclaim and has the fewest actively
used pages, but there are a few problems with it:
1. Refaults and LRU rotations are weighted the same way, even though
one costs IO and the other costs a bit of CPU.
2. The less we scan an LRU list based on already observed rotations,
the more we increase the sampling interval for new references, and
rotations become even more likely on that list. This can enter a
death spiral in which we stop looking at one list completely until
the other one is all but annihilated by page reclaim.

mm: only count actual rotations as LRU reclaim cost
When shrinking the active file list we rotate referenced pages only when they're in an executable mapping. The others get deactivated. When it comes to balancing scan pressure, though, we count all referenced pages as rotated, even the deactivated ones. Yet they do not carry the same cost to the system: the deactivated page *might* refault later on, but the deactivation is tangible progress toward freeing pages; rotations on the other hand cost time and effort without getting any closer to freeing memory. Don't treat both events as equal. The following patch will hook up LRU balancing to cache and anon refaults, which are a much more concrete cost signal for reclaiming one list over the other. Thus, remove the maybe-IO cost bias from page references, and only note the CPU cost for actual rotations that prevent the pages from getting reclaimed.

mm: base LRU balancing on an explicit cost model
Currently, scan pressure between the anon and file LRU lists is balanced based on a mixture of reclaim efficiency and a somewhat vague notion of "value" of having certain pages in memory over others. That concept of value is problematic, because it has caused us to count any event that remotely makes one LRU list more or less preferrable for reclaim, even when these events are not directly comparable and impose very different costs on the system. One example is referenced file pages that we still deactivate and referenced anonymous pages that we actually rotate back to the head of the list. There is also conceptual overlap with the LRU algorithm itself. By rotating recently used pages instead of reclaiming them, the algorithm already biases the applied scan pressure based on page value. Thus, when rebalancing scan pressure due to rotations, we should think of reclaim cost, and leave assessing the page value to the LRU algorithm. Lastly, considering both value-increasing as well as value-decreasing events can sometimes cause the same type of event to be counted twice, i.e. how rotating a page increases the LRU value, while reclaiming it succesfully decreases the value. In itself this will balance out fine, but it quietly skews the impact of events that are only recorded once. The abstract metric of "value", the murky relationship with the LRU algorithm, and accounting both negative and positive events make the current pressure balancing model hard to reason about and modify. This patch switches to a balancing model of accounting the concrete, actually observed cost of reclaiming one LRU over another. For now, that cost includes pages that are scanned but rotated back to the list head. Subsequent patches will add consideration for IO caused by refaulting of recently evicted pages. Replace struct zone_reclaim_stat with two cost counters in the lruvec, and make everything that affects cost go through a new lru_note_cost() function.

mm: vmscan: drop unnecessary div0 avoidance rounding in get_scan_count()
When we calculate the relative scan pressure between the anon and file LRU
lists, we have to assume that reclaim_stat can contain zeroes. To avoid
div0 crashes, we add 1 to all denominators like so:
anon_prio = swappiness;
file_prio = 200 - anon_prio;
[...]
/*
* The amount of pressure on anon vs file pages is inversely
* proportional to the fraction of recently scanned pages on
* each list that were recently referenced and in active use.
*/
ap = anon_prio * (reclaim_stat->recent_scanned[0] + 1);
ap /= reclaim_stat->recent_rotated[0] + 1;
fp = file_prio * (reclaim_stat->recent_scanned[1] + 1);
fp /= reclaim_stat->recent_rotated[1] + 1;
spin_unlock_irq(&pgdat->lru_lock);
fraction[0] = ap;
fraction[1] = fp;
denominator = ap + fp + 1;
While reclaim_stat can contain 0, it's not actually possible for ap + fp
to be 0. One of anon_prio or file_prio could be zero, but they must still
add up to 200. And the reclaim_stat fraction, due to the +1 in there, is
always at least 1. So if one of the two numerators is 0, the other one
can't be. ap + fp is always at least 1. Drop the + 1.

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/writeback: replace PF_LESS_THROTTLE with PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE
PF_LESS_THROTTLE exists for loop-back nfsd (and a similar need in the loop block driver and callers of prctl(PR_SET_IO_FLUSHER)), where a daemon needs to write to one bdi (the final bdi) in order to free up writes queued to another bdi (the client bdi). The daemon sets PF_LESS_THROTTLE and gets a larger allowance of dirty pages, so that it can still dirty pages after other processses have been throttled. The purpose of this is to avoid deadlock that happen when the PF_LESS_THROTTLE process must write for any dirty pages to be freed, but it is being thottled and cannot write. This approach was designed when all threads were blocked equally, independently on which device they were writing to, or how fast it was. Since that time the writeback algorithm has changed substantially with different threads getting different allowances based on non-trivial heuristics. This means the simple "add 25%" heuristic is no longer reliable. The important issue is not that the daemon needs a *larger* dirty page allowance, but that it needs a *private* dirty page allowance, so that dirty pages for the "client" bdi that it is helping to clear (the bdi for an NFS filesystem or loop block device etc) do not affect the throttling of the daemon writing to the "final" bdi. This patch changes the heuristic so that the task is not throttled when the bdi it is writing to has a dirty page count below below (or equal to) the free-run threshold for that bdi. This ensures it will always be able to have some pages in flight, and so will not deadlock. In a steady-state, it is expected that PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE tasks might still be throttled by global threshold, but that is acceptable as it is only the deadlock state that is interesting for this flag. This approach of "only throttle when target bdi is busy" is consistent with the other use of PF_LESS_THROTTLE in current_may_throttle(), were it causes attention to be focussed only on the target bdi. So this patch - renames PF_LESS_THROTTLE to PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE, - removes the 25% bonus that that flag gives, and - If PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE is set, don't delay at all unless the global and the local free-run thresholds are exceeded. Note that previously realtime threads were treated the same as PF_LESS_THROTTLE threads. This patch does *not* change the behvaiour for real-time threads, so it is now different from the behaviour of nfsd and loop tasks. I don't know what is wanted for realtime.

mm/vmscan.c: remove cpu online notification for now
kswapd kernel thread starts either with a CPU affinity set to the full cpu mask of its target node or without any affinity at all if the node is CPUless. There is a cpu hotplug callback (kswapd_cpu_online) that implements an elaborate way to update this mask when a cpu is onlined. It is not really clear whether there is any actual benefit from this scheme. Completely CPU-less NUMA nodes rarely gain a new CPU during runtime. Drop the code for that reason. If there is a real usecase then we can resurrect and simplify the code.

mm: vmscan: enforce inactive:active ratio at the reclaim root
We split the LRU lists into inactive and an active parts to maximize workingset protection while allowing just enough inactive cache space to faciltate readahead and writeback for one-off file accesses (e.g. a linear scan through a file, or logging); or just enough inactive anon to maintain recent reference information when reclaim needs to swap. With cgroups and their nested LRU lists, we currently don't do this correctly. While recursive cgroup reclaim establishes a relative LRU order among the pages of all involved cgroups, inactive:active size decisions are done on a per-cgroup level. As a result, we'll reclaim a cgroup's workingset when it doesn't have cold pages, even when one of its siblings has plenty of it that should be reclaimed first. For example: workload A has 50M worth of hot cache but doesn't do any one-off file accesses; meanwhile, parallel workload B scans files and rarely accesses the same page twice. If these workloads were to run in an uncgrouped system, A would be protected from the high rate of cache faults from B. But if they were put in parallel cgroups for memory accounting purposes, B's fast cache fault rate would push out the hot cache pages of A. This is unexpected and undesirable - the "scan resistance" of the page cache is broken. This patch moves inactive:active size balancing decisions to the root of reclaim - the same level where the LRU order is established. It does this by looking at the recursive size of the inactive and the active file sets of the cgroup subtree at the beginning of the reclaim cycle, and then making a decision - scan or skip active pages - that applies throughout the entire run and to every cgroup involved. With that in place, in the test above, the VM will recognize that there are plenty of inactive pages in the combined cache set of workloads A and B and prefer the one-off cache in B over the hot pages in A. The scan resistance of the cache is restored.

mm: vmscan: detect file thrashing at the reclaim root
We use refault information to determine whether the cache workingset is stable or transitioning, and dynamically adjust the inactive:active file LRU ratio so as to maximize protection from one-off cache during stable periods, and minimize IO during transitions. With cgroups and their nested LRU lists, we currently don't do this correctly. While recursive cgroup reclaim establishes a relative LRU order among the pages of all involved cgroups, refaults only affect the local LRU order in the cgroup in which they are occuring. As a result, cache transitions can take longer in a cgrouped system as the active pages of sibling cgroups aren't challenged when they should be. [ Right now, this is somewhat theoretical, because the siblings, under continued regular reclaim pressure, should eventually run out of inactive pages - and since inactive:active *size* balancing is also done on a cgroup-local level, we will challenge the active pages eventually in most cases. But the next patch will move that relative size enforcement to the reclaim root as well, and then this patch here will be necessary to propagate refault pressure to siblings. ] This patch moves refault detection to the root of reclaim. Instead of remembering the cgroup owner of an evicted page, remember the cgroup that caused the reclaim to happen. When refaults later occur, they'll correctly influence the cross-cgroup LRU order that reclaim follows. I.e. if global reclaim kicked out pages in some subgroup A/B/C, the refault of those pages will challenge the global LRU order, and not just the local order down inside C.

mm: vmscan: move file exhaustion detection to the node level
Patch series "mm: fix page aging across multiple cgroups". When applications are put into unconfigured cgroups for memory accounting purposes, the cgrouping itself should not change the behavior of the page reclaim code. We expect the VM to reclaim the coldest pages in the system. But right now the VM can reclaim hot pages in one cgroup while there is eligible cold cache in others. This is because one part of the reclaim algorithm isn't truly cgroup hierarchy aware: the inactive/active list balancing. That is the part that is supposed to protect hot cache data from one-off streaming IO. The recursive cgroup reclaim scheme will scan and rotate the physical LRU lists of each eligible cgroup at the same rate in a round-robin fashion, thereby establishing a relative order among the pages of all those cgroups. However, the inactive/active balancing decisions are made locally within each cgroup, so when a cgroup is running low on cold pages, its hot pages will get reclaimed - even when sibling cgroups have plenty of cold cache eligible in the same reclaim run. For example: [root@ham ~]# head -n1 /proc/meminfo MemTotal: 1016336 kB [root@ham ~]# ./reclaimtest2.sh Establishing 50M active files in cgroup A... Hot pages cached: 12800/12800 workingset-a Linearly scanning through 18G of file data in cgroup B: real 0m4.269s user 0m0.051s sys 0m4.182s Hot pages cached: 134/12800 workingset-a The streaming IO in B, which doesn't benefit from caching at all, pushes out most of the workingset in A. Solution This series fixes the problem by elevating inactive/active balancing decisions to the toplevel of the reclaim run. This is either a cgroup that hit its limit, or straight-up global reclaim if there is physical memory pressure. From there, it takes a recursive view of the cgroup subtree to decide whether page deactivation is necessary. In the test above, the VM will then recognize that cgroup B has plenty of eligible cold cache, and that the hot pages in A can be spared: [root@ham ~]# ./reclaimtest2.sh Establishing 50M active files in cgroup A... Hot pages cached: 12800/12800 workingset-a Linearly scanning through 18G of file data in cgroup B: real 0m4.244s user 0m0.064s sys 0m4.177s Hot pages cached: 12800/12800 workingset-a Implementation Whether active pages can be deactivated or not is influenced by two factors: the inactive list dropping below a minimum size relative to the active list, and the occurence of refaults. This patch series first moves refault detection to the reclaim root, then enforces the minimum inactive size based on a recursive view of the cgroup tree's LRUs. History Note that this actually never worked correctly in Linux cgroups. In the past it worked for global reclaim and leaf limit reclaim only (we used to have two physical LRU linkages per page), but it never worked for intermediate limit reclaim over multiple leaf cgroups. We're noticing this now because 1) we're putting everything into cgroups for accounting, not just the things we want to control and 2) we're moving away from leaf limits that invoke reclaim on individual cgroups, toward large tree reclaim, triggered by high-level limits, or physical memory pressure that is influenced by local protections such as memory.low and memory.min instead. This patch (of 3): When file pages are lower than the watermark on a node, we try to force scan anonymous pages to counter-act the balancing algorithms preference for new file pages when they are likely thrashing. This is a node-level decision, but it's currently made each time we look at an lruvec. This is unnecessarily expensive and also a layering violation that makes the code harder to understand. Clean this up by making the check once per node and setting a flag in the scan_control.

mm: vmscan: harmonize writeback congestion tracking for nodes & memcgs
The current writeback congestion tracking has separate flags for kswapd reclaim (node level) and cgroup limit reclaim (memcg-node level). This is unnecessarily complicated: the lruvec is an existing abstraction layer for that node-memcg intersection. Introduce lruvec->flags and LRUVEC_CONGESTED. Then track that at the reclaim root level, which is either the NUMA node for global reclaim, or the cgroup-node intersection for cgroup reclaim.

mm: vmscan: split shrink_node() into node part and memcgs part
This function is getting long and unwieldy, split out the memcg bits. The updated shrink_node() handles the generic (node) reclaim aspects: - global vmpressure notifications - writeback and congestion throttling - reclaim/compaction management - kswapd giving up on unreclaimable nodes It then calls a new shrink_node_memcgs() which handles cgroup specifics: - the cgroup tree traversal - memory.low considerations - per-cgroup slab shrinking callbacks - per-cgroup vmpressure notifications [hannes@cmpxchg.org: rename "root" to "target_memcg", per Roman] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20191025143640.GA386981@cmpxchg.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20191022144803.302233-8-hannes@cmpxchg.org Signed-off-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Reviewed-by: Roman Gushchin <guro@fb.com> Reviewed-by: Shakeel Butt <shakeelb@google.com> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> |

Most of the function body is inside a loop, which imposes an additional indentation and scoping level that makes the code a bit hard to follow and modify. The looping only happens in case of reclaim-compaction, which isn't the common case. So rather than adding yet another function level to the reclaim path and have every reclaim invocation go through a level that only exists for one specific cornercase, use a retry goto.

mm: vmscan: naming fixes: global_reclaim() and sane_reclaim()
Seven years after introducing the global_reclaim() function, I still have to double take when reading a callsite. I don't know how others do it, this is a terrible name. Invert the meaning and rename it to cgroup_reclaim(). [ After all, "global reclaim" is just regular reclaim invoked from the page allocator. It's reclaim on behalf of a cgroup limit that is a special case of reclaim, and should be explicit - not the reverse. ] sane_reclaim() isn't very descriptive either: it tests whether we can use the regular writeback throttling - available during regular page reclaim or cgroup2 limit reclaim - or need to use the broken wait_on_page_writeback() method. Use "writeback_throttling_sane()".

mm: vmscan: move inactive_list_is_low() swap check to the caller
inactive_list_is_low() should be about one thing: checking the ratio between inactive and active list. Kitchensink checks like the one for swap space makes the function hard to use and modify its callsites. Luckly, most callers already have an understanding of the swap situation, so it's easy to clean up. get_scan_count() has its own, memcg-aware swap check, and doesn't even get to the inactive_list_is_low() check on the anon list when there is no swap space available. shrink_list() is called on the results of get_scan_count(), so that check is redundant too. age_active_anon() has its own totalswap_pages check right before it checks the list proportions. The shrink_node_memcg() site is the only one that doesn't do its own swap check. Add it there. Then delete the swap check from inactive_list_is_low().

mm: clean up and clarify lruvec lookup procedure
There is a per-memcg lruvec and a NUMA node lruvec. Which one is being used is somewhat confusing right now, and it's easy to make mistakes - especially when it comes to global reclaim. How it works: when memory cgroups are enabled, we always use the root_mem_cgroup's per-node lruvecs. When memory cgroups are not compiled in or disabled at runtime, we use pgdat->lruvec. Document that in a comment. Due to the way the reclaim code is generalized, all lookups use the mem_cgroup_lruvec() helper function, and nobody should have to find the right lruvec manually right now. But to avoid future mistakes, rename the pgdat->lruvec member to pgdat->__lruvec and delete the convenience wrapper that suggests it's a commonly accessed member. While in this area, swap the mem_cgroup_lruvec() argument order. The name suggests a memcg operation, yet it takes a pgdat first and a memcg second. I have to double take every time I call this. Fix that.

They're not supposed to change any behavior, just make the implementation easier to understand and work with. This patch (of 8): This function currently takes the node or lruvec size and subtracts the zones that are excluded by the classzone index of the allocation. It uses four different types of counters to do this. Just add up the eligible zones.

mm, memcg: make scan aggression always exclude protection
This patch is an incremental improvement on the existing
memory.{low,min} relative reclaim work to base its scan pressure
calculations on how much protection is available compared to the current
usage, rather than how much the current usage is over some protection
threshold.
This change doesn't change the experience for the user in the normal
case too much. One benefit is that it replaces the (somewhat arbitrary)
100% cutoff with an indefinite slope, which makes it easier to ballpark
a memory.low value.
As well as this, the old methodology doesn't quite apply generically to
machines with varying amounts of physical memory. Let's say we have a
top level cgroup, workload.slice, and another top level cgroup,
system-management.slice. We want to roughly give 12G to
system-management.slice, so on a 32GB machine we set memory.low to 20GB
in workload.slice, and on a 64GB machine we set memory.low to 52GB.
However, because these are relative amounts to the total machine size,
while the amount of memory we want to generally be willing to yield to
system.slice is absolute (12G), we end up putting more pressure on
system.slice just because we have a larger machine and a larger workload
to fill it, which seems fairly unintuitive. With this new behaviour, we
don't end up with this unintended side effect.
Previously the way that memory.low protection works is that if you are
50% over a certain baseline, you get 50% of your normal scan pressure.
This is certainly better than the previous cliff-edge behaviour, but it
can be improved even further by always considering memory under the
currently enforced protection threshold to be out of bounds. This means
that we can set relatively low memory.low thresholds for variable or
bursty workloads while still getting a reasonable level of protection,
whereas with the previous version we may still trivially hit the 100%
clamp. The previous 100% clamp is also somewhat arbitrary, whereas this
one is more concretely based on the currently enforced protection
threshold, which is likely easier to reason about.
There is also a subtle issue with the way that proportional reclaim
worked previously -- it promotes having no memory.low, since it makes
pressure higher during low reclaim. This happens because we base our
scan pressure modulation on how far memory.current is between memory.min
and memory.low, but if memory.low is unset, we only use the overage
method. In most cromulent configurations, this then means that we end
up with *more* pressure than with no memory.low at all when we're in low
reclaim, which is not really very usable or expected.
With this patch, memory.low and memory.min affect reclaim pressure in a
more understandable and composable way. For example, from a user
standpoint, "protected" memory now remains untouchable from a reclaim
aggression standpoint, and users can also have more confidence that
bursty workloads will still receive some amount of guaranteed
protection.

mm, memcg: make memory.emin the baseline for utilisation determination
Roman points out that when when we do the low reclaim pass, we scale the reclaim pressure relative to position between 0 and the maximum protection threshold. However, if the maximum protection is based on memory.elow, and memory.emin is above zero, this means we still may get binary behaviour on second-pass low reclaim. This is because we scale starting at 0, not starting at memory.emin, and since we don't scan at all below emin, we end up with cliff behaviour. This should be a fairly uncommon case since usually we don't go into the second pass, but it makes sense to scale our low reclaim pressure starting at emin. You can test this by catting two large sparse files, one in a cgroup with emin set to some moderate size compared to physical RAM, and another cgroup without any emin. In both cgroups, set an elow larger than 50% of physical RAM. The one with emin will have less page scanning, as reclaim pressure is lower. Rebase on top of and apply the same idea as what was applied to handle cgroup_memory=disable properly for the original proportional patch http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190201045711.GA18302@chrisdown.name ("mm, memcg: Handle cgroup_disable=memory when getting memcg protection").

mm, memcg: proportional memory.{low,min} reclaim
cgroup v2 introduces two memory protection thresholds: memory.low (best-effort) and memory.min (hard protection). While they generally do what they say on the tin, there is a limitation in their implementation that makes them difficult to use effectively: that cliff behaviour often manifests when they become eligible for reclaim. This patch implements more intuitive and usable behaviour, where we gradually mount more reclaim pressure as cgroups further and further exceed their protection thresholds. This cliff edge behaviour happens because we only choose whether or not to reclaim based on whether the memcg is within its protection limits (see the use of mem_cgroup_protected in shrink_node), but we don't vary our reclaim behaviour based on this information. Imagine the following timeline, with the numbers the lruvec size in this zone: 1. memory.low=1000000, memory.current=999999. 0 pages may be scanned. 2. memory.low=1000000, memory.current=1000000. 0 pages may be scanned. 3. memory.low=1000000, memory.current=1000001. 1000001* pages may be scanned. (?!) * Of course, we won't usually scan all available pages in the zone even without this patch because of scan control priority, over-reclaim protection, etc. However, as shown by the tests at the end, these techniques don't sufficiently throttle such an extreme change in input, so cliff-like behaviour isn't really averted by their existence alone. Here's an example of how this plays out in practice. At Facebook, we are trying to protect various workloads from "system" software, like configuration management tools, metric collectors, etc (see this[0] case study). In order to find a suitable memory.low value, we start by determining the expected memory range within which the workload will be comfortable operating. This isn't an exact science -- memory usage deemed "comfortable" will vary over time due to user behaviour, differences in composition of work, etc, etc. As such we need to ballpark memory.low, but doing this is currently problematic: 1. If we end up setting it too low for the workload, it won't have *any* effect (see discussion above). The group will receive the full weight of reclaim and won't have any priority while competing with the less important system software, as if we had no memory.low configured at all. 2. Because of this behaviour, we end up erring on the side of setting it too high, such that the comfort range is reliably covered. However, protected memory is completely unavailable to the rest of the system, so we might cause undue memory and IO pressure there when we *know* we have some elasticity in the workload. 3. Even if we get the value totally right, smack in the middle of the comfort zone, we get extreme jumps between no pressure and full pressure that cause unpredictable pressure spikes in the workload due to the current binary reclaim behaviour. With this patch, we can set it to our ballpark estimation without too much worry. Any undesirable behaviour, such as too much or too little reclaim pressure on the workload or system will be proportional to how far our estimation is off. This means we can set memory.low much more conservatively and thus waste less resources *without* the risk of the workload falling off a cliff if we overshoot. As a more abstract technical description, this unintuitive behaviour results in having to give high-priority workloads a large protection buffer on top of their expected usage to function reliably, as otherwise we have abrupt periods of dramatically increased memory pressure which hamper performance. Having to set these thresholds so high wastes resources and generally works against the principle of work conservation. In addition, having proportional memory reclaim behaviour has other benefits. Most notably, before this patch it's basically mandatory to set memory.low to a higher than desirable value because otherwise as soon as you exceed memory.low, all protection is lost, and all pages are eligible to scan again. By contrast, having a gradual ramp in reclaim pressure means that you now still get some protection when thresholds are exceeded, which means that one can now be more comfortable setting memory.low to lower values without worrying that all protection will be lost. This is important because workingset size is really hard to know exactly, especially with variable workloads, so at least getting *some* protection if your workingset size grows larger than you expect increases user confidence in setting memory.low without a huge buffer on top being needed. Thanks a lot to Johannes Weiner and Tejun Heo for their advice and assistance in thinking about how to make this work better. In testing these changes, I intended to verify that: 1. Changes in page scanning become gradual and proportional instead of binary. To test this, I experimented stepping further and further down memory.low protection on a workload that floats around 19G workingset when under memory.low protection, watching page scan rates for the workload cgroup: +------------+-----------------+--------------------+--------------+ | memory.low | test (pgscan/s) | control (pgscan/s) | % of control | +------------+-----------------+--------------------+--------------+ | 21G | 0 | 0 | N/A | | 17G | 867 | 3799 | 23% | | 12G | 1203 | 3543 | 34% | | 8G | 2534 | 3979 | 64% | | 4G | 3980 | 4147 | 96% | | 0 | 3799 | 3980 | 95% | +------------+-----------------+--------------------+--------------+ As you can see, the test kernel (with a kernel containing this patch) ramps up page scanning significantly more gradually than the control kernel (without this patch). 2. More gradual ramp up in reclaim aggression doesn't result in premature OOMs. To test this, I wrote a script that slowly increments the number of pages held by stress(1)'s --vm-keep mode until a production system entered severe overall memory contention. This script runs in a highly protected slice taking up the majority of available system memory. Watching vmstat revealed that page scanning continued essentially nominally between test and control, without causing forward reclaim progress to become arrested.
