* mm: tighten fault_in_pages_writeable()Eric Dumazet2016-05-201-15/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | copy_page_to_iter_iovec() is currently the only user of fault_in_pages_writeable(), and it definitely can use fragments from high order pages. Make sure fault_in_pages_writeable() is only touching two adjacent pages at most, as claimed.

* mm: rename _count, field of the struct page, to _refcountJoonsoo Kim2016-05-191-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many developers already know that field for reference count of the struct page is _count and atomic type. They would try to handle it directly and this could break the purpose of page reference count tracepoint. To prevent direct _count modification, this patch rename it to _refcount and add warning message on the code. After that, developer who need to handle reference count will find that field should not be accessed directly.

* mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macrosKirill A. Shutemov2016-04-041-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - <foo> << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - <foo> >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> <foo>; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

* mm: introduce page reference manipulation functionsJoonsoo Kim2016-03-171-16/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The success of CMA allocation largely depends on the success of migration and key factor of it is page reference count. Until now, page reference is manipulated by direct calling atomic functions so we cannot follow up who and where manipulate it. Then, it is hard to find actual reason of CMA allocation failure. CMA allocation should be guaranteed to succeed so finding offending place is really important. In this patch, call sites where page reference is manipulated are converted to introduced wrapper function. This is preparation step to add tracepoint to each page reference manipulation function. With this facility, we can easily find reason of CMA allocation failure. There is no functional change in this patch. In addition, this patch also converts reference read sites. It will help a second step that renames page._count to something else and prevents later attempt to direct access to it (Suggested by Andrew).

* thp: reintroduce split_huge_page()Kirill A. Shutemov2016-01-151-1/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds implementation of split_huge_page() for new refcountings. Unlike previous implementation, new split_huge_page() can fail if somebody holds GUP pin on the page. It also means that pin on page would prevent it from bening split under you. It makes situation in many places much cleaner. The basic scheme of split_huge_page(): - Check that sum of mapcounts of all subpage is equal to page_count() plus one (caller pin). Foll off with -EBUSY. This way we can avoid useless PMD-splits. - Freeze the page counters by splitting all PMD and setup migration PTEs. - Re-check sum of mapcounts against page_count(). Page's counts are stable now. -EBUSY if page is pinned. - Split compound page. - Unfreeze the page by removing migration entries. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

* page-flags: define PG_locked behavior on compound pagesKirill A. Shutemov2016-01-151-17/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | lock_page() must operate on the whole compound page. It doesn't make much sense to lock part of compound page. Change code to use head page's PG_locked, if tail page is passed. This patch also gets rid of custom helper functions -- __set_page_locked() and __clear_page_locked(). They are replaced with helpers generated by __SETPAGEFLAG/__CLEARPAGEFLAG. Tail pages to these helper would trigger VM_BUG_ON(). SLUB uses PG_locked as a bit spin locked. IIUC, tail pages should never appear there. VM_BUG_ON() is added to make sure that this assumption is correct. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix fs/cifs/file.c] Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

* | memcg: add per cgroup dirty page accountingGreg Thelen2015-06-021-1/+2

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

* mm: get rid of radix tree gfp mask for pagecache_get_pageMichal Hocko2014-12-291-7/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 2457aec63745 ("mm: non-atomically mark page accessed during page cache allocation where possible") has added a separate parameter for specifying gfp mask for radix tree allocations. Not only this is less than optimal from the API point of view because it is error prone, it is also buggy currently because grab_cache_page_write_begin is using GFP_KERNEL for radix tree and if fgp_flags doesn't contain FGP_NOFS (mostly controlled by fs by AOP_FLAG_NOFS flag) but the mapping_gfp_mask has __GFP_FS cleared then the radix tree allocation wouldn't obey the restriction and might recurse into filesystem and cause deadlocks. This is the case for most filesystems unfortunately because only ext4 and gfs2 are using AOP_FLAG_NOFS. Let's simply remove radix_gfp_mask parameter because the allocation context is same for both page cache and for the radix tree. Just make sure that the radix tree gets only the sane subset of the mask (e.g. do not pass __GFP_WRITE). Long term it is more preferable to convert remaining users of AOP_FLAG_NOFS to use mapping_gfp_mask instead and simplify this interface even further.

If some other use is ever found, it can be generalized or added later. So this patch renames "private" to "timeout" with a meaning "stop waiting when "jiffies" reaches or passes "timeout", and adds two of the many possible wait..bit..timeout() interfaces: wait_on_page_bit_killable_timeout(), which is the one I want to use, and out_of_line_wait_on_bit_timeout() which is a reasonably general example. Others can be added as needed.

* mm/rmap.c: fix pgoff calculation to handle hugepage correctlyNaoya Horiguchi2014-07-231-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I triggered VM_BUG_ON() in vma_address() when I tried to migrate an anonymous hugepage with mbind() in the kernel v3.16-rc3. This is because pgoff's calculation in rmap_walk_anon() fails to consider compound_order() only to have an incorrect value. This patch introduces page_to_pgoff(), which gets the page's offset in PAGE_CACHE_SIZE. Kirill pointed out that page cache tree should natively handle hugepages, and in order to make hugetlbfs fit it, page->index of hugetlbfs page should be in PAGE_CACHE_SIZE. This is beyond this patch, but page_to_pgoff() contains the point to be fixed in a single function. Signed-off-by: Naoya Horiguchi <n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com> Acked-by: Kirill A.

* mm: non-atomically mark page accessed during page cache allocation where ↵Mel Gorman2014-06-041-6/+101
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | possible aops->write_begin may allocate a new page and make it visible only to have mark_page_accessed called almost immediately after. Once the page is visible the atomic operations are necessary which is noticable overhead when writing to an in-memory filesystem like tmpfs but should also be noticable with fast storage. The objective of the patch is to initialse the accessed information with non-atomic operations before the page is visible. The bulk of filesystems directly or indirectly use grab_cache_page_write_begin or find_or_create_page for the initial allocation of a page cache page. This patch adds an init_page_accessed() helper which behaves like the first call to mark_page_accessed() but may called before the page is visible and can be done non-atomically. The primary APIs of concern in this care are the following and are used by most filesystems. find_get_page find_lock_page find_or_create_page grab_cache_page_nowait grab_cache_page_write_begin All of them are very similar in detail to the patch creates a core helper pagecache_get_page() which takes a flags parameter that affects its behavior such as whether the page should be marked accessed or not. Then old API is preserved but is basically a thin wrapper around this core function. Each of the filesystems are then updated to avoid calling mark_page_accessed when it is known that the VM interfaces have already done the job. There is a slight snag in that the timing of the mark_page_accessed() has now changed so in rare cases it's possible a page gets to the end of the LRU as PageReferenced where as previously it might have been repromoted. This is expected to be rare but it's worth the filesystem people thinking about it in case they see a problem with the timing change. It is also the case that some filesystems may be marking pages accessed that previously did not but it makes sense that filesystems have consistent behaviour in this regard. The test case used to evaulate this is a simple dd of a large file done multiple times with the file deleted on each iterations. The size of the file is 1/10th physical memory to avoid dirty page balancing. In the async case it will be possible that the workload completes without even hitting the disk and will have variable results but highlight the impact of mark_page_accessed for async IO. The sync results are expected to be more stable. The exception is tmpfs where the normal case is for the "IO" to not hit the disk. The test machine was single socket and UMA to avoid any scheduling or NUMA artifacts. Throughput and wall times are presented for sync IO, only wall times are shown for async as the granularity reported by dd and the variability is unsuitable for comparison. As async results were variable do to writback timings, I'm only reporting the maximum figures. The sync results were stable enough to make the mean and stddev uninteresting. The performance results are reported based on a run with no profiling. Profile data is based on a separate run with oprofile running. async dd 3.15.0-rc3 3.15.0-rc3 vanilla accessed-v2 ext3 Max elapsed 13.9900 ( 0.00%) 11.5900 ( 17.16%) tmpfs Max elapsed 0.5100 ( 0.00%) 0.4900 ( 3.92%) btrfs Max elapsed 12.8100 ( 0.00%) 12.7800 ( 0.23%) ext4 Max elapsed 18.6000 ( 0.00%) 13.3400 ( 28.28%) xfs Max elapsed 12.5600 ( 0.00%) 2.0900 ( 83.36%) The XFS figure is a bit strange as it managed to avoid a worst case by sheer luck but the average figures looked reasonable. samples percentage ext3 86107 0.9783 vmlinux-3.15.0-rc4-vanilla mark_page_accessed ext3 23833 0.2710 vmlinux-3.15.0-rc4-accessed-v3r25 mark_page_accessed ext3 5036 0.0573 vmlinux-3.15.0-rc4-accessed-v3r25 init_page_accessed ext4 64566 0.8961 vmlinux-3.15.0-rc4-vanilla mark_page_accessed ext4 5322 0.0713 vmlinux-3.15.0-rc4-accessed-v3r25 mark_page_accessed ext4 2869 0.0384 vmlinux-3.15.0-rc4-accessed-v3r25 init_page_accessed xfs 62126 1.7675 vmlinux-3.15.0-rc4-vanilla mark_page_accessed xfs 1904 0.0554 vmlinux-3.15.0-rc4-accessed-v3r25 init_page_accessed xfs 103 0.0030 vmlinux-3.15.0-rc4-accessed-v3r25 mark_page_accessed btrfs 10655 0.1338 vmlinux-3.15.0-rc4-vanilla mark_page_accessed btrfs 2020 0.0273 vmlinux-3.15.0-rc4-accessed-v3r25 init_page_accessed btrfs 587 0.0079 vmlinux-3.15.0-rc4-accessed-v3r25 mark_page_accessed tmpfs 59562 3.2628 vmlinux-3.15.0-rc4-vanilla mark_page_accessed tmpfs 1210 0.0696 vmlinux-3.15.0-rc4-accessed-v3r25 init_page_accessed tmpfs 94 0.0054 vmlinux-3.15.0-rc4-accessed-v3r25 mark_page_accessed [akpm@linux-foundation.org: don't run init_page_accessed() against an uninitialised pointer] Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Cc: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@intel.com> Cc: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: "Paul E.

* mm: remove read_cache_page_async()Sasha Levin2014-04-031-10/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes read_cache_page_async() which wasn't really needed anywhere and simplifies the code around it a bit. read_cache_page_async() is useful when we want to read a page into the cache without waiting for it to complete. This happens when the appropriate callback 'filler' doesn't complete its read operation and releases the page lock immediately, and instead queues a different completion routine to do that. This never actually happened anywhere in the code. read_cache_page_async() had 3 different callers: - read_cache_page() which is the sync version, it would just wait for the requested read to complete using wait_on_page_read(). - JFFS2 would call it from jffs2_gc_fetch_page(), but the filler function it supplied doesn't do any async reads, and would complete before the filler function returns - making it actually a sync read. - CRAMFS would call it using the read_mapping_page_async() wrapper, with a similar story to JFFS2 - the filler function doesn't do anything that reminds async reads and would always complete before the filler function returns. To sum it up, the code in mm/filemap.c never took advantage of having read_cache_page_async(). While there are filler callbacks that do async reads (such as the block one), we always called it with the read_cache_page(). This patch adds a mandatory wait for read to complete when adding a new page to the cache, and removes read_cache_page_async() and its wrappers.

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

* mm: only enforce stable page writes if the backing device requires itDarrick J. Wong2013-02-211-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Create a helper function to check if a backing device requires stable page writes and, if so, performs the necessary wait. Then, make it so that all points in the memory manager that handle making pages writable use the helper function. This should provide stable page write support to most filesystems, while eliminating unnecessary waiting for devices that don't require the feature. Before this patchset, all filesystems would block, regardless of whether or not it was necessary. ext3 would wait, but still generate occasional checksum errors. The network filesystems were left to do their own thing, so they'd wait too. After this patchset, all the disk filesystems except ext3 and btrfs will wait only if the hardware requires it. ext3 (if necessary) snapshots pages instead of blocking, and btrfs provides its own bdi so the mm will never wait. Network filesystems haven't been touched, so either they provide their own stable page guarantees or they don't block at all. The blocking behavior is back to what it was before 3.0 if you don't have a disk requiring stable page writes. Here's the result of using dbench to test latency on ext2: 3.8.0-rc3: Operation Count AvgLat MaxLat ---------------------------------------- WriteX 109347 0.028 59.817 ReadX 347180 0.004 3.391 Flush 15514 29.828 287.283 Throughput 57.429 MB/sec 4 clients 4 procs max_latency=287.290 ms 3.8.0-rc3 + patches: WriteX 105556 0.029 4.273 ReadX 335004 0.005 4.112 Flush 14982 30.540 298.634 Throughput 55.4496 MB/sec 4 clients 4 procs max_latency=298.650 ms As you can see, the maximum write latency drops considerably with this patch enabled.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit f56f821feb7b ("mm: extend prefault helpers to fault in more than PAGE_SIZE") added in the new functions: fault_in_multipages_writeable() and fault_in_multipages_readable(). However, we currently see: include/linux/pagemap.h:492: warning: 'ret' may be used uninitialized in this function include/linux/pagemap.h:492: note: 'ret' was declared here Unlike a lot of gcc nags, this one appears somewhat legit. i.e. passing in an invalid negative value of "size" does make it look like all the conditionals in there would be bypassed and the uninitialized value would be returned.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | drm/i915 wants to read/write more than one page in its fastpath and hence needs to prefault more than PAGE_SIZE bytes. Add new functions in filemap.h to make that possible. Also kill a copy&pasted spurious space in both functions while at it. v2: As suggested by Andrew Morton, add a multipage parameter to both functions to avoid the additional branch for the pagemap.c hotpath. My gcc 4.6 here seems to dtrt and indeed reap these branches where not needed. v3: Becaus I couldn't find a way around adding a uaddr += PAGE_SIZE to the filemap.c hotpaths (that the compiler couldn't remove again), let's go with separate new functions for the multipage use-case. v4: Adjust comment to CodingStlye and fix spelling.

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

If memory cgroups are enabled, then the memory cgroup charge is also moved from the old page to the new.

* mm: remove likely() from mapping_unevictable()Steven Rostedt2011-01-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The mapping_unevictable() has a likely() around the mapping parameter. This mapping parameter comes from page_mapping() which has an unlikely() that the page will be set as PAGE_MAPPING_ANON, and if so, it will return NULL. One would think that this unlikely() means that the mapping returned by page_mapping() would not be NULL, but where page_mapping() is used just above mapping_unevictable(), that unlikely() is incorrect most of the time. This means that the "likely(mapping)" in mapping_unevictable() is incorrect most of the time. Running the annotated branch profiler on my main box which runs firefox, evolution, xchat and is part of my distcc farm, I had this: correct incorrect % Function File Line ------- --------- - -------- ---- ---- 12872836 1269443893 98 mapping_unevictable pagemap.h 51 35935762 1270265395 97 page_mapping mm.h 659 1306198001 143659 0 page_mapping mm.h 657 203131478 121586 0 page_mapping mm.h 657 5415491 1116 0 page_mapping mm.h 657 74899487 1116 0 page_mapping mm.h 657 203132845 224 0 page_mapping mm.h 659 5415464 27 0 page_mapping mm.h 659 13552 0 0 page_mapping mm.h 657 13552 0 0 page_mapping mm.h 659 242630 0 0 page_mapping mm.h 657 242630 0 0 page_mapping mm.h 659 74899487 0 0 page_mapping mm.h 659 The page_mapping() is a static inline, which is why it shows up multiple times. The mapping_unevictable() is also a static inline but seems to be used only once in my setup. The unlikely in page_mapping() was correct a total of 1909540379 times and incorrect 1270533123 times, with a 39% being incorrect. Perhaps this is enough to remove the unlikely from page_mapping() as well.

* mm: retry page fault when blocking on disk transferMichel Lespinasse2010-10-261-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change reduces mmap_sem hold times that are caused by waiting for disk transfers when accessing file mapped VMAs. It introduces the VM_FAULT_ALLOW_RETRY flag, which indicates that the call site wants mmap_sem to be released if blocking on a pending disk transfer. In that case, filemap_fault() returns the VM_FAULT_RETRY status bit and do_page_fault() will then re-acquire mmap_sem and retry the page fault. It is expected that the retry will hit the same page which will now be cached, and thus it will complete with a low mmap_sem hold time. Tests: - microbenchmark: thread A mmaps a large file and does random read accesses to the mmaped area - achieves about 55 iterations/s. Thread B does mmap/munmap in a loop at a separate location - achieves 55 iterations/s before, 15000 iterations/s after. - We are seeing related effects in some applications in house, which show significant performance regressions when running without this change.
