15 years agomm: stop ptlock enlarging struct page
Hugh Dickins [Tue, 15 Dec 2009 01:59:02 +0000 (17:59 -0800)]
mm: stop ptlock enlarging struct page

CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK adds 12 or 16 bytes to a 32- or 64-bit spinlock_t,
and CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC adds another 12 or 24 bytes to it: lockdep
enables both of those, and CONFIG_LOCK_STAT adds 8 or 16 bytes to that.

When 2.6.15 placed the split page table lock inside struct page (usually
sized 32 or 56 bytes), only CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK was a possibility, and
we ignored the enlargement (but fitted in CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK's 4 by
letting the spinlock_t occupy both page->private and page->mapping).

Should these debugging options be allowed to double the size of a struct
page, when only one minority use of the page (as a page table) needs to
fit a spinlock in there?  Perhaps not.

Take the easy way out: switch off SPLIT_PTLOCK_CPUS when DEBUG_SPINLOCK or
DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC is in force.  I've sometimes tried to be cleverer,
kmallocing a cacheline for the spinlock when it doesn't fit, but given up
each time.  Falling back to mm->page_table_lock (as we do when ptlock is
not split) lets lockdep check out the strictest path anyway.

And now that some arches allow 8192 cpus, use 999999 for infinity.

(What has this got to do with KSM swapping?  It doesn't care about the
size of struct page, but may care about random junk in page->mapping - to
be explained separately later.)

After kswapd balances all zones in a pgdat, it goes to sleep.  In the
event of no IO congestion, kswapd can go to sleep very shortly after the
high watermark was reached.  If there are a constant stream of allocations
from parallel processes, it can mean that kswapd went to sleep too quickly

tries to sleep for HZ/10.  If it is woken up by another process or the
high watermark is no longer met, it's considered a premature sleep and
kswapd continues work.  Otherwise it goes fully to sleep.

This adds more counters to distinguish between fast and slow breaches of
watermarks.  A "fast" premature sleep is one where the low watermark was
hit in a very short time after kswapd going to sleep.  A "slow" premature

swap_info: swap count continuations

Swap is duplicated (reference count incremented by one) whenever the same
swap page is inserted into another mm (when forking finds a swap entry in
place of a pte, or when reclaim unmaps a pte to insert the swap entry).

swap_info_struct's vmalloc'ed swap_map is the array of these reference
counts: but what happens when the unsigned short (or unsigned char since
the preceding patch) is full? (and its high bit is kept for a cache flag)

We then lose track of it, never freeing, leaving it in use until swapoff:
at which point we _hope_ that a single pass will have found all instances,
assume there are no more, and will lose user data if we're wrong.

Swapping of KSM pages has not yet been enabled; but it is implemented,
and makes it very easy for a user to overflow the maximum swap count:
possible with ordinary process pages, but unlikely, even when pid_max
has been raised from PID_MAX_DEFAULT.

This patch implements swap count continuations: when the count overflows,
a continuation page is allocated and linked to the original vmalloc'ed
map page, and this used to hold the continuation counts for that entry
and its neighbours.  These continuation pages are seldom referenced:
the common paths all work on the original swap_map, only referring to
a continuation page when the low "digit" of a count is incremented or
decremented through SWAP_MAP_MAX.

swap_info: change to array of pointers

The swap_info_struct is only 76 or 104 bytes, but it does seem wrong
to reserve an array of about 30 of them in bss, when most people will
want only one.  Change swap_info[] to an array of pointers.

That does need a "type" field in the structure: pack it as a char with
next type and short prio (aha, char is unsigned by default on PowerPC).
Use the (admittedly peculiar) name "type" throughout for this index.

/proc/swaps does not take swap_lock: I wouldn't want it to, but do take
care with barriers when adding a new item to the array (never removed).

15 years agomm: add gfp flags for NODEMASK_ALLOC slab allocations
David Rientjes [Tue, 15 Dec 2009 01:58:38 +0000 (17:58 -0800)]
mm: add gfp flags for NODEMASK_ALLOC slab allocations

Objects passed to NODEMASK_ALLOC() are relatively small in size and are
backed by slab caches that are not of large order, traditionally never
greater than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER.

Thus, using GFP_KERNEL for these allocations on large machines when
CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT > 8 will cause the page allocator to loop endlessly in
the allocation attempt, each time invoking both direct reclaim or the oom
killer.

This is of particular interest when using NODEMASK_ALLOC() from a
mempolicy context (either directly in mm/mempolicy.c or the mempolicy
constrained hugetlb allocations) since the oom killer always kills current
when allocations are constrained by mempolicies.  So for all present use
cases in the kernel, current would end up being oom killed when direct
reclaim fails.  That would allow the NODEMASK_ALLOC() to succeed but
current would have sacrificed itself upon returning.

This patch adds gfp flags to NODEMASK_ALLOC() to pass to kmalloc() on
CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT > 8; this parameter is a nop on other configurations.
All current use cases either directly from hugetlb code or indirectly via
NODEMASK_SCRATCH() union __GFP_NORETRY to avoid direct reclaim and the oom
killer when the slab allocator needs to allocate additional pages.

The side-effect of this change is that all current use cases of either
NODEMASK_ALLOC() or NODEMASK_SCRATCH() need appropriate -ENOMEM handling
when the allocation fails (never for CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT <= 8).  All
current use cases were audited and do have appropriate error handling at
this time.

15 years agohugetlb: derive huge pages nodes allowed from task mempolicy

hugetlb: derive huge pages nodes allowed from task mempolicy

This patch derives a "nodes_allowed" node mask from the numa mempolicy of
the task modifying the number of persistent huge pages to control the
allocation, freeing and adjusting of surplus huge pages when the pool page
count is modified via the new sysctl or sysfs attribute
"nr_hugepages_mempolicy".  The nodes_allowed mask is derived as follows:

* For "default" [NULL] task mempolicy, a NULL nodemask_t pointer
  is produced.  This will cause the hugetlb subsystem to use
  node_online_map as the "nodes_allowed".  This preserves the
  behavior before this patch.
* For "preferred" mempolicy, including explicit local allocation,
  a nodemask with the single preferred node will be produced.
  "local" policy will NOT track any internode migrations of the
  task adjusting nr_hugepages.
* For "bind" and "interleave" policy, the mempolicy's nodemask
  will be used.
* Other than to inform the construction of the nodes_allowed node
  mask, the actual mempolicy mode is ignored.  That is, all modes
  behave like interleave over the resulting nodes_allowed mask
  with no "fallback".

See the updated documentation [next patch] for more information
about the implications of this patch.

Examples:

Starting with:

Node 0 HugePages_Total:     0
Node 1 HugePages_Total:     0
Node 2 HugePages_Total:     0
Node 3 HugePages_Total:     0

Default behavior [with or without this patch] balances persistent
hugepage allocation across nodes [with sufficient contiguous memory]:

sysctl vm.nr_hugepages[_mempolicy]=32

yields:

Node 0 HugePages_Total:     8
Node 1 HugePages_Total:     8
Node 2 HugePages_Total:     8
Node 3 HugePages_Total:     8

Of course, we only have nr_hugepages_mempolicy with the patch,
but with default mempolicy, nr_hugepages_mempolicy behaves the
same as nr_hugepages.

Applying mempolicy--e.g., with numactl [using '-m' a.k.a.
'--membind' because it allows multiple nodes to be specified
and it's easy to type]--we can allocate huge pages on
individual nodes or sets of nodes.  So, starting from the
condition above, with 8 huge pages per node, add 8 more to
node 2 using:

numactl -m 2 sysctl vm.nr_hugepages_mempolicy=40

This yields:

Node 0 HugePages_Total:     8
Node 1 HugePages_Total:     8
Node 2 HugePages_Total:    16
Node 3 HugePages_Total:     8

The incremental 8 huge pages were restricted to node 2 by the
specified mempolicy.

Similarly, we can use mempolicy to free persistent huge pages
from specified nodes:

numactl -m 0,1 sysctl vm.nr_hugepages_mempolicy=32

yields:

Node 0 HugePages_Total:     4
Node 1 HugePages_Total:     4
Node 2 HugePages_Total:    16
Node 3 HugePages_Total:     8

The 8 huge pages freed were balanced over nodes 0 and 1.

15 years agohugetlb: add nodemask arg to huge page alloc, free and surplus adjust functions

hugetlb: add nodemask arg to huge page alloc, free and surplus adjust functions

In preparation for constraining huge page allocation and freeing by the
controlling task's numa mempolicy, add a "nodes_allowed" nodemask pointer
to the allocate, free and surplus adjustment functions.  For now, pass
NULL to indicate default behavior--i.e., use node_online_map.  A
subsqeuent patch will derive a non-default mask from the controlling
task's numa mempolicy.

Note that this method of updating the global hstate nr_hugepages under the
constraint of a nodemask simplifies keeping the global state
consistent--especially the number of persistent and surplus pages relative
to reservations and overcommit limits.  There are undoubtedly other ways
to do this, but this works for both interfaces: mempolicy and per node
attributes.

Please consider for merging into mmotm.

persistent huge pages are allocated: 1) the task NUMA mempolicy of the
task modifying a new sysctl "nr_hugepages_mempolicy", based on a

/sys/devices/node/node[0-9]*/hugepages

The per node attibutes allow direct assignment of a huge page count on a
specific node, regardless of the task's mempolicy or cpuset constraints.

call within the hfs_bnode_read() function (at fs/hfs/bnode.c:24).  The

Because the hfs_readdir() function executes upon any attempt to read a

bsdacct: fix uid/gid misreporting

commit d8e180dcd5bbbab9cd3ff2e779efcf70692ef541 "bsdacct: switch
credentials for writing to the accounting file" introduced credential
switching during final acct data collecting.  However, uid/gid pair

Jan Kara [Thu, 3 Dec 2009 12:39:28 +0000 (13:39 +0100)]
udf: Avoid IO in udf_clear_inode

It is not very good to do IO in udf_clear_inode. First, VFS does not really
expect inode to become dirty there and thus we have to write it ourselves,
second, memory reclaim gets blocked waiting for IO when it does not really
expect it, third, the IO pattern (e.g. on umount) resulting from writes in
udf_clear_inode is bad and it slows down writing a lot.

The reason why UDF needed to do IO in udf_clear_inode is that UDF standard
mandates extent length to exactly match inode size. But when we allocate
extents to a file or directory, we don't really know what exactly the final
file size will be and thus temporarily set it to block boundary and later
truncate it to exact length in udf_clear_inode. Now, this is changed to
truncate to final file size in udf_release_file for regular files. For
directories and symlinks, we do the truncation at the moment when learn
what the final file size will be.

udf: Try harder when looking for VAT inode

Some disks do not contain VAT inode in the last recorded block as required
by the standard but a few blocks earlier (or the number of recorded blocks
is wrong). So look for the VAT inode a bit before the end of the media.
