git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mel/linux-balancenuma Pull Automatic NUMA Balancing bare-bones from Mel Gorman: "There are three implementations for NUMA balancing, this tree (balancenuma), numacore which has been developed in tip/master and autonuma which is in aa.git. In almost all respects balancenuma is the dumbest of the three because its main impact is on the VM side with no attempt to be smart about scheduling. In the interest of getting the ball rolling, it would be desirable to see this much merged for 3.8 with the view to building scheduler smarts on top and adapting the VM where required for 3.9. The most recent set of comparisons available from different people are mel: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/9/108 mingo: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/7/331 tglx: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/10/437 srikar: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/10/397 The results are a mixed bag. In my own tests, balancenuma does reasonably well. It's dumb as rocks and does not regress against mainline. On the other hand, Ingo's tests shows that balancenuma is incapable of converging for this workloads driven by perf which is bad but is potentially explained by the lack of scheduler smarts. Thomas' results show balancenuma improves on mainline but falls far short of numacore or autonuma. Srikar's results indicate we all suffer on a large machine with imbalanced node sizes. My own testing showed that recent numacore results have improved dramatically, particularly in the last week but not universally. We've butted heads heavily on system CPU usage and high levels of migration even when it shows that overall performance is better. There are also cases where it regresses. Of interest is that for specjbb in some configurations it will regress for lower numbers of warehouses and show gains for higher numbers which is not reported by the tool by default and sometimes missed in treports. Recently I reported for numacore that the JVM was crashing with NullPointerExceptions but currently it's unclear what the source of this problem is. Initially I thought it was in how numacore batch handles PTEs but I'm no longer think this is the case. It's possible numacore is just able to trigger it due to higher rates of migration. These reports were quite late in the cycle so I/we would like to start with this tree as it contains much of the code we can agree on and has not changed significantly over the last 2-3 weeks." * tag 'balancenuma-v11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mel/linux-balancenuma: (50 commits) mm/rmap, migration: Make rmap_walk_anon() and try_to_unmap_anon() more scalable mm/rmap: Convert the struct anon_vma::mutex to an rwsem mm: migrate: Account a transhuge page properly when rate limiting mm: numa: Account for failed allocations and isolations as migration failures mm: numa: Add THP migration for the NUMA working set scanning fault case build fix mm: numa: Add THP migration for the NUMA working set scanning fault case. mm: sched: numa: Delay PTE scanning until a task is scheduled on a new node mm: sched: numa: Control enabling and disabling of NUMA balancing if !SCHED_DEBUG mm: sched: numa: Control enabling and disabling of NUMA balancing mm: sched: Adapt the scanning rate if a NUMA hinting fault does not migrate mm: numa: Use a two-stage filter to restrict pages being migrated for unlikely task<->node relationships mm: numa: migrate: Set last_nid on newly allocated page mm: numa: split_huge_page: Transfer last_nid on tail page mm: numa: Introduce last_nid to the page frame sched: numa: Slowly increase the scanning period as NUMA faults are handled mm: numa: Rate limit setting of pte_numa if node is saturated mm: numa: Rate limit the amount of memory that is migrated between nodes mm: numa: Structures for Migrate On Fault per NUMA migration rate limiting mm: numa: Migrate pages handled during a pmd_numa hinting fault mm: numa: Migrate on reference policy ...

2012-12-12mm: introduce new field "managed_pages" to struct zoneJiang Liu
Currently a zone's present_pages is calcuated as below, which is inaccurate and may cause trouble to memory hotplug. spanned_pages - absent_pages - memmap_pages - dma_reserve. During fixing bugs caused by inaccurate zone->present_pages, we found zone->present_pages has been abused. The field zone->present_pages may have different meanings in different contexts: 1) pages existing in a zone. 2) pages managed by the buddy system. For more discussions about the issue, please refer to: http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/5/866 https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1346751/ This patchset tries to introduce a new field named "managed_pages" to struct zone, which counts "pages managed by the buddy system". And revert zone->present_pages to count "physical pages existing in a zone", which also keep in consistence with pgdat->node_present_pages. We will set an initial value for zone->managed_pages in function free_area_init_core() and will adjust it later if the initial value is inaccurate. For DMA/normal zones, the initial value is set to: (spanned_pages - absent_pages - memmap_pages - dma_reserve) Later zone->managed_pages will be adjusted to the accurate value when the bootmem allocator frees all free pages to the buddy system in function free_all_bootmem_node() and free_all_bootmem(). The bootmem allocator doesn't touch highmem pages, so highmem zones' managed_pages is set to the accurate value "spanned_pages - absent_pages" in function free_area_init_core() and won't be updated anymore. This patch also adds a new field "managed_pages" to /proc/zoneinfo and sysrq showmem.

2012-12-11mm, memory-hotplug: dynamic configure movable memory and portion memoryLai Jiangshan
Add online_movable and online_kernel for logic memory hotplug. This is the dynamic version of "movablecore" & "kernelcore". We have the same reason to introduce it as to introduce "movablecore" & "kernelcore". It has the same motive as "movablecore" & "kernelcore", but it is dynamic/running-time: o We can configure memory as kernelcore or movablecore after boot. Userspace workload is increased, we need more hugepage, we can't use "online_movable" to add memory and allow the system use more THP(transparent-huge-page), vice-verse when kernel workload is increase. Also help for virtualization to dynamic configure host/guest's memory, to save/(reduce waste) memory. Memory capacity on Demand o When a new node is physically online after boot, we need to use "online_movable" or "online_kernel" to configure/portion it as we expected when we logic-online it. This configuration also helps for physically-memory-migrate. o all benefit as the same as existed "movablecore" & "kernelcore". o Preparing for movable-node, which is very important for power-saving, hardware partitioning and high-available-system(hardware fault management). (Note, we don't introduce movable-node here.) Action behavior: When a memoryblock/memorysection is onlined by "online_movable", the kernel will not have directly reference to the page of the memoryblock, thus we can remove that memory any time when needed. When it is online by "online_kernel", the kernel can use it. When it is online by "online", the zone type doesn't changed. Current constraints: Only the memoryblock which is adjacent to the ZONE_MOVABLE can be online from ZONE_NORMAL to ZONE_MOVABLE.

2012-12-11mm/memory_hotplug.c: update start_pfn in zone and pg_data when spanned_pages ↵Tang Chen
== 0. If we hot-remove memory only and leave the cpus alive, the corresponding node will not be removed. But the node_start_pfn and node_spanned_pages in pg_data will be reset to 0. In this case, when we hot-add the memory back next time, the node_start_pfn will always be 0 because no pfn is less than 0. After that, if we hot-remove the memory again, it will cause kernel panic in function find_biggest_section_pfn() when it tries to scan all the pfns. The zone will also have the same problem. This patch sets start_pfn to the start_pfn of the section being added when spanned_pages of the zone or pg_data is 0. ---How to reproduce--- 1. hot-add a container with some memory and cpus; 2. hot-remove the container's memory, and leave cpus there; 3. hot-add these memory again; 4. hot-remove them again; then, the kernel will panic. ---Call trace--- BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 00000fff82a8cc38 IP: [<ffffffff811c0d55>] find_biggest_section_pfn+0xe5/0x180 ......

2012-12-11memory_hotplug: fix possible incorrect node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY]Lai Jiangshan
Currently memory_hotplug only manages the node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY], it forgets to manage node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY]. This may cause node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY] to become incorrect. Example, if a node is empty before online, and we online a memory which is in ZONE_NORMAL. And after online, node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] is correct, but node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY] is incorrect, the online code doesn't set the new online node to node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY]. The same thing will happen when offlining (the offline code doesn't clear the node from node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY] when needed). Some memory managment code depends node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY], so we have to fix up the node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY]. We add node_states_check_changes_online() and node_states_check_changes_offline() to detect whether node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] and node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY] are changed while hotpluging. Also add @status_change_nid_normal to struct memory_notify, thus the memory hotplug callbacks know whether the node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY] are changed. (We can add a @flags and reuse @status_change_nid instead of introducing @status_change_nid_normal, but it will add much more complexity in memory hotplug callback in every subsystem. So introducing @status_change_nid_normal is better and it doesn't change the sematics of @status_change_nid) Signed-off-by: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Minchan Kim <minchan.kim@gmail.com> Cc: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Yasuaki Ishimatsu <isimatu.yasuaki@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Rob Landley <rob@landley.net> Cc: Jiang Liu <jiang.liu@huawei.com> Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Cc: Wen Congyang <wency@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Revert commit 7f1290f2f2a4 ("mm: fix-up zone present pages") That patch tried to fix a issue when calculating zone->present_pages, but it caused a regression on 32bit systems with HIGHMEM. With that change, reset_zone_present_pages() resets all zone->present_pages to zero, and fixup_zone_present_pages() is called to recalculate zone->present_pages when the boot allocator frees core memory pages into buddy allocator. Because highmem pages are not freed by bootmem allocator, all highmem zones' present_pages becomes zero. Various options for improving the situation are being discussed but for now, let's return to the 3.6 code.

2012-10-09memory-hotplug: update memory block's state and notify userspaceWen Congyang
remove_memory() will be called when hot removing a memory device. But even if offlining memory, we cannot notice it. So the patch updates the memory block's state and sends notification to userspace. Additionally, the memory device may contain more than one memory block. If the memory block has been offlined, __offline_pages() will fail. So we should try to offline one memory block at a time. Thus remove_memory() also check each memory block's state. So there is no need to check the memory block's state before calling remove_memory().

2012-10-09memory-hotplug: preparation to notify memory block's state at memory hot removeWen Congyang
remove_memory() is called in two cases: 1. echo offline >/sys/devices/system/memory/memoryXX/state 2. hot remove a memory device In the 1st case, the memory block's state is changed and the notification that memory block's state changed is sent to userland after calling remove_memory(). So user can notice memory block is changed. But in the 2nd case, the memory block's state is not changed and the notification is not also sent to userspcae even if calling remove_memory(). So user cannot notice memory block is changed. For adding the notification at memory hot remove, the patch just prepare as follows: 1st case uses offline_pages() for offlining memory. 2nd case uses remove_memory() for offlining memory and changing memory block's state and notifing the information. The patch does not implement notification to remove_memory().

2012-10-09mm: fix-up zone present pagesJianguo Wu
I think zone->present_pages indicates pages that buddy system can management, it should be: zone->present_pages = spanned pages - absent pages - bootmem pages, but is now: zone->present_pages = spanned pages - absent pages - memmap pages. spanned pages: total size, including holes. absent pages: holes. bootmem pages: pages used in system boot, managed by bootmem allocator. memmap pages: pages used by page structs. This may cause zone->present_pages less than it should be. For example, numa node 1 has ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_MOVABLE, it's memmap and other bootmem will be allocated from ZONE_MOVABLE, so ZONE_NORMAL's present_pages should be spanned pages - absent pages, but now it also minus memmap pages(free_area_init_core), which are actually allocated from ZONE_MOVABLE. When offlining all memory of a zone, this will cause zone->present_pages less than 0, because present_pages is unsigned long type, it is actually a very large integer, it indirectly caused zone->watermark[WMARK_MIN] becomes a large integer(setup_per_zone_wmarks()), than cause totalreserve_pages become a large integer(calculate_totalreserve_pages()), and finally cause memory allocating failure when fork process(__vm_enough_memory()). [root@localhost ~]# dmesg -bash: fork: Cannot allocate memory I think the bug described in http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=134502182714186&w=2 is also caused by wrong zone present pages. This patch intends to fix-up zone->present_pages when memory are freed to buddy system on x86_64 and IA64 platforms.

2012-07-31mm/hotplug: correctly setup fallback zonelists when creating new pgdatJiang Liu
When hotadd_new_pgdat() is called to create new pgdat for a new node, a fallback zonelist should be created for the new node. There's code to try to achieve that in hotadd_new_pgdat() as below: /* * The node we allocated has no zone fallback lists. For avoiding * to access not-initialized zonelist, build here. */ mutex_lock(&zonelists_mutex); build_all_zonelists(pgdat, NULL); mutex_unlock(&zonelists_mutex); But it doesn't work as expected. When hotadd_new_pgdat() is called, the new node is still in offline state because node_set_online(nid) hasn't been called yet. And build_all_zonelists() only builds zonelists for online nodes as: for_each_online_node(nid) { pg_data_t *pgdat = NODE_DATA(nid); build_zonelists(pgdat); build_zonelist_cache(pgdat); } Though we hope to create zonelist for the new pgdat, but it doesn't. So add a new parameter "pgdat" the build_all_zonelists() to build pgdat for the new pgdat too.

Currently this patch is required by latest memory hotplug support for Xen balloon driver patch which will be posted soon. Additionally, originial online_page() function was splited into following functions doing "atomic" operations: - __online_page_set_limits() - set new limits for memory management code, - __online_page_increment_counters() - increment totalram_pages and totalhigh_pages, - __online_page_free() - free page to allocator. It was done to: - not duplicate existing code, - ease hotplug code devolpment by usage of well defined interface, - avoid stupid bugs which are unavoidable when the same code (by design) is developed in many places.

2011-06-15mm/memory_hotplug.c: fix building of node hotplug zonelistKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
During memory hotplug we refresh zonelists when we online a page in a new zone. It means that the node's zonelist is not initialized until pages are onlined. So for example, "nid" passed by MEM_GOING_ONLINE notifier will point to NODE_DATA(nid) which has no zone fallback list. Moreover, if we hot-add cpu-only nodes, alloc_pages() will do no fallback. This patch makes a zonelist when a new pgdata is available. Note: in production, at fujitsu, memory should be onlined before cpu and our server didn't have any memory-less nodes and had no problems. But recent changes in MEM_GOING_ONLINE+page_cgroup will access not initialized zonelist of node. Anyway, there are memory-less node and we need some care.

2011-01-13mm: migration: allow migration to operate asynchronously and avoid ↵Mel Gorman
synchronous compaction in the faster path Migration synchronously waits for writeback if the initial passes fails. Callers of memory compaction do not necessarily want this behaviour if the caller is latency sensitive or expects that synchronous migration is not going to have a significantly better success rate. This patch adds a sync parameter to migrate_pages() allowing the caller to indicate if wait_on_page_writeback() is allowed within migration or not. For reclaim/compaction, try_to_compact_pages() is first called asynchronously, direct reclaim runs and then try_to_compact_pages() is called synchronously as there is a greater expectation that it'll succeed.

2011-01-11memory hotplug: one more lock on memory hotplugKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
Now, memory_hotplug_(un)lock() is used for add/remove/offline pages for avoiding races with hibernation. But this should be held in online_pages(), too. It seems asymmetric. There are cases where one has to avoid a race with memory hotplug notifier and his own local code, and hotplug v.s. hotplug. This will add a generic solution for avoiding races. In other view, having lock here has no big impacts. online pages is tend to be done by udev script at el against each memory section one by one. Then, it's better to have lock here, too.

2010-12-02mem-hotplug: introduce {un}lock_memory_hotplug()KOSAKI Motohiro
Presently hwpoison is using lock_system_sleep() to prevent a race with memory hotplug. However lock_system_sleep() is a no-op if CONFIG_HIBERNATION=n. Therefore we need a new lock.
