      mm, compaction: cover all compaction mode in compact_zone · c46649de

The compiler is complaining after "mm, compaction: change COMPACT_
constants into enum"

  mm/compaction.c: In function `compact_zone':
  mm/compaction.c:1350:2: warning: enumeration value `COMPACT_DEFERRED' not handled in switch [-Wswitch]
    switch (ret) {
    ^
  mm/compaction.c:1350:2: warning: enumeration value `COMPACT_COMPLETE' not handled in switch [-Wswitch]

  mm/compaction.c:1350:2: warning: enumeration value `COMPACT_CONTENDED' not handled in switch [-Wswitch]

compaction_suitable is allowed to return only COMPACT_PARTIAL,
COMPACT_SKIPPED and COMPACT_CONTINUE so other cases are simply
impossible.  Put a VM_BUG_ON to catch an impossible return value.

Compaction code is doing weird dances between COMPACT_FOO -> int ->
unsigned long

But there doesn't seem to be any reason for that.  All functions which
return/use one of those constants are not expecting any other value so it
really makes sense to define an enum for them and make it clear that no
other values are expected.

This is a pure cleanup and shouldn't introduce any functional changes.

      vmscan: consider classzone_idx in compaction_ready · b6459cc1
      Michal Hocko authored 
      

Motivation:
As pointed out by Linus [2][3] relying on zone_reclaimable as a way to
communicate the reclaim progress is rater dubious. I tend to agree,
not only it is really obscure, it is not hard to imagine cases where a
single page freed in the loop keeps all the reclaimers looping without
getting any progress because their gfp_mask wouldn't allow to get that
page anyway (e.g. single GFP_ATOMIC alloc and free loop). This is rather
rare so it doesn't happen in the practice but the current logic which we
have is rather obscure and hard to follow a also non-deterministic.

This is an attempt to make the OOM detection more deterministic and
easier to follow because each reclaimer basically tracks its own
progress which is implemented at the page allocator layer rather spread
out between the allocator and the reclaim.  The more on the
implementation is described in the first patch.

I have tested several different scenarios but it should be clear that
testing OOM killer is quite hard to be representative.  There is usually
a tiny gap between almost OOM and full blown OOM which is often time
sensitive.  Anyway, I have tested the following 2 scenarios and I would
appreciate if there are more to test.

Testing environment: a virtual machine with 2G of RAM and 2CPUs without
any swap to make the OOM more deterministic.

1) 2 writers (each doing dd with 4M blocks to an xfs partition with 1G
   file size, removes the files and starts over again) running in
   parallel for 10s to build up a lot of dirty pages when 100 parallel
   mem_eaters (anon private populated mmap which waits until it gets
   signal) with 80M each.

   This causes an OOM flood of course and I have compared both patched
   and unpatched kernels. The test is considered finished after there
   are no OOM conditions detected. This should tell us whether there are
   any excessive kills or some of them premature (e.g. due to dirty pages):

I have performed two runs this time each after a fresh boot.

The patched kernel run noticeably longer while invoking OOM killer same
number of times. This means that the original implementation is much
more aggressive and triggers the OOM killer sooner. free pages stats
show that neither kernels went OOM too early most of the time, though. I
guess the difference is in the backoff when retries without any progress
do sleep for a while if there is memory under writeback or dirty which
is highly likely considering the parallel IO.
Both kernels have seen races where zone wasn't marked unreclaimable
and we still hit the OOM killer. This is most likely a race where
a task managed to exit between the last allocation attempt and the oom
killer invocation.

2) 2 writers again with 10s of run and then 10 mem_eaters to consume as much
   memory as possible without triggering the OOM killer. This required a lot
   of tuning but I've considered 3 consecutive runs in three different boots
   without OOM as a success.

* base kernel
size=$(awk '/MemFree/{printf "%dK", ($2/10)-(16*1024)}' /proc/meminfo)

* patched kernel
size=$(awk '/MemFree/{printf "%dK", ($2/10)-(12*1024)}' /proc/meminfo)

That means 40M more memory was usable without triggering OOM killer. The
base kernel sometimes managed to handle the same as patched but it
wasn't consistent and failed in at least on of the 3 runs. This seems
like a minor improvement.

I was testing also GPF_REPEAT costly requests (hughetlb) with fragmented
memory and under memory pressure. The results are in patch 11 where the
logic is implemented. In short I can see huge improvement there.

I am certainly interested in other usecases as well as well as any
feedback. Especially those which require higher order requests.

This patch (of 14):

While playing with the oom detection rework [1] I have noticed that my
heavy order-9 (hugetlb) load close to OOM ended up in an endless loop
where the reclaim hasn't made any progress but did_some_progress didn't
reflect that and compaction_suitable was backing off because no zone is
above low wmark + 1 << order.

It turned out that this is in fact an old standing bug in
compaction_ready which ignores the requested_highidx and did the
watermark check for 0 classzone_idx.  This succeeds for zone DMA most
of the time as the zone is mostly unused because of lowmem protection.
As a result costly high order allocatios always report a successfull
progress even when there was none.  This wasn't a problem so far
because these allocations usually fail quite early or retry only few
times with __GFP_REPEAT but this will change after later patch in this
series so make sure to not lie about the progress and propagate
requested_highidx down to compaction_ready and use it for both the
watermak check and compaction_suitable to fix this issue.

      mm: vmscan: reduce size of inactive file list · 59dc76b0
      Rik van Riel authored 
      

The inactive file list should still be large enough to contain readahead
windows and freshly written file data, but it no longer is the only
source for detecting multiple accesses to file pages.  The workingset
refault measurement code causes recently evicted file pages that get
accessed again after a shorter interval to be promoted directly to the
active list.

With that mechanism in place, we can afford to (on a larger system)
dedicate more memory to the active file list, so we can actually cache
more of the frequently used file pages in memory, and not have them
pushed out by streaming writes, once-used streaming file reads, etc.

This can help things like database workloads, where only half the page
cache can currently be used to cache the database working set.  This
patch automatically increases that fraction on larger systems, using the
same ratio that has already been used for anonymous memory.

      mm: filemap: only do access activations on reads · bbddabe2
      Johannes Weiner authored 
      

Andres observed that his database workload is struggling with the
transaction journal creating pressure on frequently read pages.

Access patterns like transaction journals frequently write the same
pages over and over, but in the majority of cases those pages are never
read back.  There are no caching benefits to be had for those pages, so
activating them and having them put pressure on pages that do benefit
from caching is a bad choice.

Leave page activations to read accesses and don't promote pages based on
writes alone.

It could be said that partially written pages do contain cache-worthy
data, because even if *userspace* does not access the unwritten part,
the kernel still has to read it from the filesystem for correctness.
However, a counter argument is that these pages enjoy at least *some*
protection over other inactive file pages through the writeback cache,
in the sense that dirty pages are written back with a delay and cache
reclaim leaves them alone until they have been written back to disk.
Should that turn out to be insufficient and we see increased read IO
from partial writes under memory pressure, we can always go back and
update grab_cache_page_write_begin() to take (pos, len) so that it can
tell partial writes from pages that don't need partial reads.  But for
now, keep it simple.

      mm: workingset: only do workingset activations on reads · f0281a00
      Rik van Riel authored 
      

This is a follow-up to

  http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg101739.html

where Andres reported his database workingset being pushed out by the
minimum size enforcement of the inactive file list - currently 50% of
cache - as well as repeatedly written file pages that are never actually
read.

Two changes fell out of the discussions.  The first change observes that
pages that are only ever written don't benefit from caching beyond what
the writeback cache does for partial page writes, and so we shouldn't
promote them to the active file list where they compete with pages whose
cached data is actually accessed repeatedly.  This change comes in two
patches - one for in-cache write accesses and one for refaults triggered
by writes, neither of which should promote a cache page.

Second, with the refault detection we don't need to set 50% of the cache
aside for used-once cache anymore since we can detect frequently used
pages even when they are evicted between accesses.  We can allow the
active list to be bigger and thus protect a bigger workingset that isn't
challenged by streamers.  Depending on the access patterns, this can
increase major faults during workingset transitions for better
performance during stable phases.

This patch (of 3):

When rewriting a page, the data in that page is replaced with new data.
This means that evicting something else from the active file list, in
order to cache data that will be replaced by something else, is likely
to be a waste of memory.

It is better to save the active list for frequently read pages, because
reads actually use the data that is in the page.

This patch ignores partial writes, because it is unclear whether the
complexity of identifying those is worth any potential performance gain
obtained from better caching pages that see repeated partial writes at
large enough intervals to not get caught by the use-twice promotion code
used for the inactive file list.

      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
 "Changes included in this pull request:

   - revert pxa2xx-flash back to using ioremap_cached() and switch
     memremap() to use arch_memremap_wb()

   - remove pci=firmware command line argument handling

   - remove unnecessary arm_dma_set_mask() implementation, the generic
     implementation will do for ARM

   - removal of the ARM kallsyms "hack" to work around mode switching
     veneers and vectors located below PAGE_OFFSET

   - tidy up build system output a little

   - add L2 cache power management DT bindings

   - remove duplicated local_irq_disable() in reboot paths

   - handle AMBA primecell devices better at registration time with PM
     domains (needed for Samsung SoCs)

   - ARM specific preparation to support Keystone II kexec"
