Revert "mm: migrate: skip shared exec THP for NUMA balancing" · 7ee820ee

Miaohe Lin authored May 04, 2021

This reverts commit c77c5cba.

Since commit c77c5cba ("mm: migrate: skip shared exec THP for NUMA
balancing"), the NUMA balancing would skip shared exec transhuge page.
But this enhancement is not suitable for transhuge page.  Because it's
required that page_mapcount() must be 1 due to no migration pte dance is
done here.  On the other hand, the shared exec transhuge page will leave
the migrate_misplaced_page() with pte entry untouched and page locked.
Thus pagefault for NUMA will be triggered again and deadlock occurs when
we start waiting for the page lock held by ourselves.

Yang Shi said:

 "Thanks for catching this. By relooking the code I think the other
  important reason for removing this is
  migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() actually can't see shared exec
  file THP at all since page_lock_anon_vma_read() is called before
  and if page is not anonymous page it will just restore the PMD
  without migrating anything.
  The pages for private mapped file vma may be anonymous pages due to
  COW but they can't be THP so it won't trigger THP numa fault at all. I
  think this is why no bug was reported. I overlooked this in the first
  place."

mm/migrate.c: use helper migrate_vma_collect_skip() in migrate_vma_collect_hole() · 843e1be1

Miaohe Lin authored May 04, 2021

It's more recommended to use helper function migrate_vma_collect_skip() to
skip the unexpected case and it also helps remove some duplicated codes.
Move migrate_vma_collect_skip() above migrate_vma_collect_hole() to avoid
compiler warning.

mm/migrate.c: fix potential indeterminate pte entry in migrate_vma_insert_page() · 34f5e9b9

mm/migrate.c: make putback_movable_page() static · 606a6f71

Miaohe Lin authored May 04, 2021

Patch series "Cleanup and fixup for mm/migrate.c", v3.

This series contains cleanups to remove unnecessary VM_BUG_ON_PAGE and rc
!= MIGRATEPAGE_SUCCESS check.  Also use helper function to remove some
duplicated codes.  What's more, this fixes potential deadlock in NUMA
balancing shared exec THP case and so on.  More details can be found in
the respective changelogs.

This patch (of 5):

The putback_movable_page() is just called by putback_movable_pages() and
we know the page is locked and both PageMovable() and PageIsolated() is
checked right before calling putback_movable_page().  So we make it static
and remove all the 3 VM_BUG_ON_PAGE().

mm: fs: invalidate BH LRU during page migration · 8cc621d2

Minchan Kim authored May 04, 2021

Pages containing buffer_heads that are in one of the per-CPU buffer_head
LRU caches will be pinned and thus cannot be migrated.  This can prevent
CMA allocations from succeeding, which are often used on platforms with
co-processors (such as a DSP) that can only use physically contiguous
memory.  It can also prevent memory hot-unplugging from succeeding,
which involves migrating at least MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE bytes of memory,
which ranges from 8 MiB to 1 GiB based on the architecture in use.

Correspondingly, invalidate the BH LRU caches before a migration starts
and stop any buffer_head from being cached in the LRU caches, until
migration has finished.

mm: replace migrate_[prep|finish] with lru_cache_[disable|enable] · 361a2a22

Minchan Kim authored May 04, 2021

Currently, migrate_[prep|finish] is merely a wrapper of
lru_cache_[disable|enable].  There is not much to gain from having
additional abstraction.

Use lru_cache_[disable|enable] instead of migrate_[prep|finish], which
would be more descriptive.

note: migrate_prep_local in compaction.c changed into lru_add_drain to
avoid CPU schedule cost with involving many other CPUs to keep old
behavior.

mm: disable LRU pagevec during the migration temporarily · d479960e

Minchan Kim authored May 04, 2021

LRU pagevec holds refcount of pages until the pagevec are drained.  It
could prevent migration since the refcount of the page is greater than
the expection in migration logic.  To mitigate the issue, callers of
migrate_pages drains LRU pagevec via migrate_prep or lru_add_drain_all
before migrate_pages call.

However, it's not enough because pages coming into pagevec after the
draining call still could stay at the pagevec so it could keep
preventing page migration.  Since some callers of migrate_pages have
retrial logic with LRU draining, the page would migrate at next trail
but it is still fragile in that it doesn't close the fundamental race
between upcoming LRU pages into pagvec and migration so the migration
failure could cause contiguous memory allocation failure in the end.

To close the race, this patch disables lru caches(i.e, pagevec) during
ongoing migration until migrate is done.

Since it's really hard to reproduce, I measured how many times
migrate_pages retried with force mode(it is about a fallback to a sync
migration) with below debug code.

int migrate_pages(struct list_head *from, new_page_t get_new_page,
			..
			..

  if (rc && reason == MR_CONTIG_RANGE && pass > 2) {
         printk(KERN_ERR, "pfn 0x%lx reason %d", page_to_pfn(page), rc);
         dump_page(page, "fail to migrate");
  }

The test was repeating android apps launching with cma allocation in
background every five seconds.  Total cma allocation count was about 500
during the testing.  With this patch, the dump_page count was reduced
from 400 to 30.

The new interface is also useful for memory hotplug which currently
drains lru pcp caches after each migration failure.  This is rather
suboptimal as it has to disrupt others running during the operation.
With the new interface the operation happens only once.  This is also in
line with pcp allocator cache which are disabled for the offlining as
well.

mm: compaction: update the COMPACT[STALL|FAIL] events properly · 06dac2f4

Charan Teja Reddy authored May 04, 2021

By definition, COMPACT[STALL|FAIL] events needs to be counted when there
is 'At least in one zone compaction wasn't deferred or skipped from the
direct compaction'.  And when compaction is skipped or deferred,
COMPACT_SKIPPED will be returned but it will still go and update these
compaction events which is wrong in the sense that COMPACT[STALL|FAIL]
is counted without even trying the compaction.

Correct this by skipping the counting of these events when
COMPACT_SKIPPED is returned for compaction.  This indirectly also avoid
the unnecessary try into the get_page_from_freelist() when compaction is
not even tried.

There is a corner case where compaction is skipped but still count
COMPACTSTALL event, which is that IRQ came and freed the page and the
same is captured in capture_control.

mm/compaction: remove unused variable sysctl_compact_memory · ef498438

Pintu Kumar authored May 04, 2021

The sysctl_compact_memory is mostly unused in mm/compaction.c It just
acts as a place holder for sysctl to store .data.

But the .data itself is not needed here.

So we can get ride of this variable completely and make .data as NULL.
This will also eliminate the extern declaration from header file.  No
functionality is broken or changed this way.
