The patch "mm, page_alloc: warn_alloc print nodemask" implicitly sets the allocation nodemask to cpuset_current_mems_allowed when there is no effective mempolicy. cpuset_current_mems_allowed is only effective when cpusets are enabled, which is also printed by warn_alloc(), so setting the nodemask to cpuset_current_mems_allowed is redundant and prevents debugging issues where ac->nodemask is not set properly in the page allocator. This provides better debugging output since cpuset_print_current_mems_allowed() is already provided.

Now that __GFP_NOFAIL doesn't override decisions to skip the oom killer we are left with requests which require to loop inside the allocator without invoking the oom killer (e.g. GFP_NOFS|__GFP_NOFAIL used by fs code) and so they might, in very unlikely situations, loop for ever - e.g. other parallel request could starve them. This patch tries to limit the likelihood of such a lockup by giving these __GFP_NOFAIL requests a chance to move on by consuming a small part of memory reserves. We are using ALLOC_HARDER which should be enough to prevent from the starvation by regular allocation requests, yet it shouldn't consume enough from the reserves to disrupt high priority requests (ALLOC_HIGH). While we are at it, let's introduce a helper __alloc_pages_cpuset_fallback which enforces the cpusets but allows to fallback to ignore them if the first attempt fails. __GFP_NOFAIL requests can be considered important enough to allow cpuset runaway in order for the system to move on. It is highly unlikely that any of these will be GFP_USER anyway. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161220134904.21023-4-mhocko@kernel.org Signed-off-by:

__alloc_pages_may_oom makes sure to skip the OOM killer depending on the allocation request. This includes lowmem requests, costly high order requests and others. For a long time __GFP_NOFAIL acted as an override for all those rules. This is not documented and it can be quite surprising as well. E.g. GFP_NOFS requests are not invoking the OOM killer but GFP_NOFS|__GFP_NOFAIL does so if we try to convert some of the existing open coded loops around allocator to nofail request (and we have done that in the past) then such a change would have a non trivial side effect which is far from obvious. Note that the primary motivation for skipping the OOM killer is to prevent from pre-mature invocation. The exception has been added by commit 82553a93 ("oom: invoke oom killer for __GFP_NOFAIL"). The changelog points out that the oom killer has to be invoked otherwise the request would be looping for ever. But this argument is rather weak because the OOM killer doesn't really guarantee a forward progress for those exceptional cases: - it will hardly help to form costly order which in turn can result in the system panic because of no oom killable task in the end - I believe we certainly do not want to put the system down just because there is a nasty driver asking for order-9 page with GFP_NOFAIL not realizing all the consequences. It is much better this request would loop for ever than the massive system disruption - lowmem is also highly unlikely to be freed during OOM killer - GFP_NOFS request could trigger while there is still a lot of memory pinned by filesystems. This patch simply removes the __GFP_NOFAIL special case in order to have a more clear semantic without surprising side effects. Signed-off-by:

Tetsuo Handa has pointed out that commit 0a0337e0 ("mm, oom: rework oom detection") has subtly changed semantic for costly high order requests with __GFP_NOFAIL and withtout __GFP_REPEAT and those can fail right now. My code inspection didn't reveal any such users in the tree but it is true that this might lead to unexpected allocation failures and subsequent OOPs. __alloc_pages_slowpath wrt. GFP_NOFAIL is hard to follow currently. There are few special cases but we are lacking a catch all place to be sure we will not miss any case where the non failing allocation might fail. This patch reorganizes the code a bit and puts all those special cases under nopage label which is the generic go-to-fail path. Non failing allocations are retried or those that cannot retry like non-sleeping allocation go to the failure point directly. This should make the code flow much easier to follow and make it less error prone for future changes. While we are there we have to move the stall check up to catch potentially looping non-failing allocations.

show_mem() allows to filter out node specific data which is irrelevant to the allocation request via SHOW_MEM_FILTER_NODES. The filtering is done in skip_free_areas_node which skips all nodes which are not in the mems_allowed of the current process. This works most of the time as expected because the nodemask shouldn't be outside of the allocating task but there are some exceptions. E.g. memory hotplug might want to request allocations from outside of the allowed nodes (see new_node_page). Get rid of this hardcoded behavior and push the allocation mask down the show_mem path and use it instead of cpuset_current_mems_allowed. NULL nodemask is interpreted as cpuset_current_mems_allowed.

We have a generic implementation for quite some time already. If there is any arch specific information to be printed then we should add a callback called from the generic code rather than duplicate the whole show_mem. The current code has resulted in the code duplication and the output divergence which is both confusing and adds maintainance costs. Let's just get rid of this mess.

Patch series "show_mem updates", v2. This is a mixture of one bug fix (patch 1), an enhancement (patch 2) and cleanups (the rest of the series). First two patches should be really straightforward. Patch 3 removes some arch specific show_mem implementations because I think they are quite outdated and do not really serve any useful purpose anymore. I think we should really strive to have a consistent show_mem output regardless of the architecture. If some architecture is really special and wants to dump something additional we should do that via an arch specific hook. The last patch adds nodemask parameter so that we do not rely on the hardcoded mems_allowed of the current task when doing the node filtering. I consider this more a cleanup than a fix because basically all users use a nodemask which is a subset of mems_allowed. There is only one call path in the memory hotplug which doesn't comply with this but that is hardly something to worry about. This patch (of 4): Commit 599d0c95 ("mm, vmscan: move LRU lists to node") has added per numa node statistics to show_mem but it forgot to add skip_free_areas_node to filter out nodes which are outside of the allocating task numa policy. Add this check to not pollute the output with the pointless information. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170117091543.25850-2-mhocko@kernel.org Signed-off-by:

get_scan_count() considers the whole node LRU size when - doing SCAN_FILE due to many page cache inactive pages - calculating the number of pages to scan In both cases this might lead to unexpected behavior especially on 32b systems where we can expect lowmem memory pressure very often. A large highmem zone can easily distort SCAN_FILE heuristic because there might be only few file pages from the eligible zones on the node lru and we would still enforce file lru scanning which can lead to trashing while we could still scan anonymous pages. The later use of lruvec_lru_size can be problematic as well. Especially when there are not many pages from the eligible zones. We would have to skip over many pages to find anything to reclaim but shrink_node_memcg would only reduce the remaining number to scan by SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX at maximum. Therefore we can end up going over a large LRU many times without actually having chance to reclaim much if anything at all. The closer we are out of memory on lowmem zone the worse the problem will be. Fix this by filtering out all the ineligible zones when calculating the lru size for both paths and consider only sc->reclaim_idx zones. The patch would need to be tweaked a bit to apply to 4.10 and older but I will do that as soon as it hits the Linus tree in the next merge window.

PGDEACTIVATE represents the number of pages moved from the active list to the inactive list. At least this sounds like the original motivation of the counter. move_active_pages_to_lru, however, counts pages which got freed in the mean time as deactivated as well. This is a very rare event and counting them as deactivation in itself is not harmful but it makes the code more convoluted than necessary - we have to count both all pages and those which are freed which is a bit confusing. After this patch the PGDEACTIVATE should have a slightly more clear semantic and only count those pages which are moved from the active to the inactive list which is a plus.

There is no thp defrag option that currently allows MADV_HUGEPAGE regions to do direct compaction and reclaim while all other thp allocations simply trigger kswapd and kcompactd in the background and fail immediately. The "defer" setting simply triggers background reclaim and compaction for all regions, regardless of MADV_HUGEPAGE, which makes it unusable for our userspace where MADV_HUGEPAGE is being used to indicate the application is willing to wait for work for thp memory to be available. The "madvise" setting will do direct compaction and reclaim for these MADV_HUGEPAGE regions, but does not trigger kswapd and kcompactd in the background for anybody else. For reasonable usage, there needs to be a mesh between the two options. This patch introduces a fifth mode, "defer+madvise", that will do direct reclaim and compaction for MADV_HUGEPAGE regions and trigger background reclaim and compaction for everybody else so that hugepages may be available in the near future. A proposal to allow direct reclaim and compaction for MADV_HUGEPAGE regions as part of the "defer" mode, making it a very powerful setting and avoids breaking userspace, was offered: http://marc.info/?t=148236612700003 This additional mode is a compromise. A second proposal to allow both "defer" and "madvise" to be selected at the same time was also offered: http://marc.info/?t=148357345300001. This is possible, but there was a concern that it might break existing userspaces the parse the output of the defrag mode, so the fifth option was introduced instead. This patch also cleans up the helper function for storing to "enabled" and "defrag" since the former supports three modes while the latter supports five and triple_flag_store() was getting unnecessarily messy.

Because during swap off, a swap entry may have swap_map[] == SWAP_HAS_CACHE (for example, just allocated). If we return NULL in __read_swap_cache_async(), the swap off will abort. So when swap slot cache is disabled, (for swap off), we will wait for page to be put into swap cache in such race condition. This should not be a problem for swap slot cache, because swap slot cache should be drained after clearing swap_slot_cache_enabled.

We add per cpu caches for swap slots that can be allocated and freed quickly without the need to touch the swap info lock. Two separate caches are maintained for swap slots allocated and swap slots returned. This is to allow the swap slots to be returned to the global pool in a batch so they will have a chance to be coaelesced with other slots in a cluster. We do not reuse the slots that are returned right away, as it may increase fragmentation of the slots. The swap allocation cache is protected by a mutex as we may sleep when searching for empty slots in cache. The swap free cache is protected by a spin lock as we cannot sleep in the free path. We refill the swap slots cache when we run out of slots, and we disable the swap slots cache and drain the slots if the global number of slots fall below a low watermark threshold. We re-enable the cache agian when the slots available are above a high watermark.

Currently, the swap slots are allocated one page at a time, causing contention to the swap_info lock protecting the swap partition on every page being swapped. This patch adds new functions get_swap_pages and scan_swap_map_slots to request multiple swap slots at once. This will reduces the lock contention on the swap_info lock. Also scan_swap_map_slots can operate more efficiently as swap slots often occurs in clusters close to each other on a swap device and it is quicker to allocate them together.
