2012-01-10mempool: fix first round failure behaviorTejun Heo
mempool modifies gfp_mask so that the backing allocator doesn't try too hard or trigger warning message when there's pool to fall back on. In addition, for the first try, it removes __GFP_WAIT and IO, so that it doesn't trigger reclaim or wait when allocation can be fulfilled from pool; however, when that allocation fails and pool is empty too, it waits for the pool to be replenished before retrying. Allocation which could have succeeded after a bit of reclaim has to wait on the reserved items and it's not like mempool doesn't retry with __GFP_WAIT and IO. It just does that *after* someone returns an element, pointlessly delaying things. Fix it by retrying immediately if the first round of allocation attempts w/o __GFP_WAIT and IO fails.

2012-01-10mempool: drop unnecessary and incorrect BUG_ON() from mempool_destroy()Tejun Heo
mempool_destroy() is a thin wrapper around free_pool(). The only thing it adds is BUG_ON(pool->curr_nr != pool->min_nr). The intention seems to be to enforce that all allocated elements are freed; however, the BUG_ON() can't achieve that (it doesn't know anything about objects above min_nr) and incorrect as mempool_resize() is allowed to leave the pool extended but not filled. Furthermore, panicking is way worse than any memory leak and there are better debug tools to track memory leaks. Drop the BUG_ON() from mempool_destory() and as that leaves the function identical to free_pool(), replace it.

2012-01-10mempool: fix and document synchronization and memory barrier usageTejun Heo
mempool_alloc/free() use undocumented smp_mb()'s. The code is slightly broken and misleading. The lockless part is in mempool_free(). It wants to determine whether the item being freed needs to be returned to the pool or backing allocator without grabbing pool->lock. Two things need to be guaranteed for correct operation. 1. pool->curr_nr + #allocated should never dip below pool->min_nr. 2. Waiters shouldn't be left dangling. For #1, The only necessary condition is that curr_nr visible at free is from after the allocation of the element being freed (details in the comment). For most cases, this is true without any barrier but there can be fringe cases where the allocated pointer is passed to the freeing task without going through memory barriers. To cover this case, wmb is necessary before returning from allocation and rmb is necessary before reading curr_nr. IOW, ALLOCATING TASK FREEING TASK update pool state after alloc; wmb(); pass pointer to freeing task; read pointer; rmb(); read pool state to free; The current code doesn't have wmb after pool update during allocation and may theoretically, on machines where unlock doesn't behave as full wmb, lead to pool depletion and deadlock. smp_wmb() needs to be added after successful allocation from reserved elements and smp_mb() in mempool_free() can be replaced with smp_rmb(). For #2, the waiter needs to add itself to waitqueue and then check the wait condition and the waker needs to update the wait condition and then wake up. Because waitqueue operations always go through full spinlock synchronization, there is no need for extra memory barriers. Furthermore, mempool_alloc() is already holding pool->lock when it decides that it needs to wait. There is no reason to do unlock - add waitqueue - test condition again. It can simply add itself to waitqueue while holding pool->lock and then unlock and sleep. This patch adds smp_wmb() after successful allocation from reserved pool, replaces smp_mb() in mempool_free() with smp_rmb() and extend pool->lock over waitqueue addition. More importantly, it explains what memory barriers do and how the lockless testing is correct. -v2: Oleg pointed out that unlock doesn't imply wmb. Added explicit smp_wmb() after successful allocation from reserved pool and updated comments accordingly. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: "Paul E.

2012-01-10mm/vmscan.c: consider swap space when deciding whether to continue reclaimMinchan Kim
It's pointless to continue reclaiming when we have no swap space and lots of anon pages in the inactive list. Without this patch, it is possible when swap is disabled to continue trying to reclaim when there are only anonymous pages in the system even though that will not make any progress.

2012-01-10mm: bootmem: try harder to free pages in bulkJohannes Weiner
The loop that frees pages to the page allocator while bootstrapping tries to free higher-order blocks only when the starting address is aligned to that block size. Otherwise it will free all pages on that node one-by-one. Change it to free individual pages up to the first aligned block and then try higher-order frees from there.

2012-01-10mm: bootmem: drop superfluous range check when freeing pages in bulkJohannes Weiner
The area node_bootmem_map represents is aligned to BITS_PER_LONG, and all bits in any aligned word of that map valid. When the represented area extends beyond the end of the node, the non-existant pages will be marked as reserved. As a result, when freeing a page block, doing an explicit range check for whether that block is within the node's range is redundant as the bitmap is consulted anyway to see whether all pages in the block are unreserved.

2012-01-10mm: page_alloc: generalize order handling in __free_pages_bootmem()Johannes Weiner
__free_pages_bootmem() used to special-case higher-order frees to save individual page checking with free_pages_bulk(). Nowadays, both zero order and non-zero order frees use free_pages(), which checks each individual page anyway, and so there is little point in making the distinction anymore. The higher-order loop will work just fine for zero order pages.

2012-01-10tracepoint: add tracepoints for debugging oom_score_adjKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
oom_score_adj is used for guarding processes from OOM-Killer. One of problem is that it's inherited at fork(). When a daemon set oom_score_adj and make children, it's hard to know where the value is set. This patch adds some tracepoints useful for debugging. This patch adds 3 trace points. - creating new task - renaming a task (exec) - set oom_score_adj To debug, users need to enable some trace pointer. Maybe filtering is useful as # EVENT=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/task/ # echo "oom_score_adj != 0" > $EVENT/task_newtask/filter # echo "oom_score_adj != 0" > $EVENT/task_rename/filter # echo 1 > $EVENT/enable # EVENT=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/oom/ # echo 1 > $EVENT/enable output will be like this. # grep oom /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace bash-7699 [007] d..3 5140.744510: oom_score_adj_update: pid=7699 comm=bash oom_score_adj=-1000 bash-7699 [007] ...1 5151.818022: task_newtask: pid=7729 comm=bash clone_flags=1200011 oom_score_adj=-1000 ls-7729 [003] ...2 5151.818504: task_rename: pid=7729 oldcomm=bash newcomm=ls oom_score_adj=-1000 bash-7699 [002] ...1 5175.701468: task_newtask: pid=7730 comm=bash clone_flags=1200011 oom_score_adj=-1000 grep-7730 [007] ...2 5175.701993: task_rename: pid=7730 oldcomm=bash newcomm=grep oom_score_adj=-1000 Signed-off-by: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2012-01-10mm: simplify find_vma_prev()KOSAKI Motohiro
commit 297c5eee37 ("mm: make the vma list be doubly linked") added the vm_prev member to vm_area_struct. We can simplify find_vma_prev() by using it. Also, this change helps to improve page fault performance because it has stronger locality of reference.

2012-01-10mremap: enforce rmap src/dst vma ordering in case of vma_merge() succeeding ↵Andrea Arcangeli
in copy_vma() migrate was doing an rmap_walk with speculative lock-less access on pagetables. That could lead it to not serializing properly against mremap PT locks. But a second problem remains in the order of vmas in the same_anon_vma list used by the rmap_walk. If vma_merge succeeds in copy_vma, the src vma could be placed after the dst vma in the same_anon_vma list. That could still lead to migrate missing some pte. This patch adds an anon_vma_moveto_tail() function to force the dst vma at the end of the list before mremap starts to solve the problem. If the mremap is very large and there are a lots of parents or childs sharing the anon_vma root lock, this should still scale better than taking the anon_vma root lock around every pte copy practically for the whole duration of mremap. Update: Hugh noticed special care is needed in the error path where move_page_tables goes in the reverse direction, a second anon_vma_moveto_tail() call is needed in the error path. This program exercises the anon_vma_moveto_tail: === int main() { static struct timeval oldstamp, newstamp; long diffsec; char *p, *p2, *p3, *p4; if (posix_memalign((void **)&p, 2*1024*1024, SIZE)) perror("memalign"), exit(1); if (posix_memalign((void **)&p2, 2*1024*1024, SIZE)) perror("memalign"), exit(1); if (posix_memalign((void **)&p3, 2*1024*1024, SIZE)) perror("memalign"), exit(1); memset(p, 0xff, SIZE); printf("%p\n", p); memset(p2, 0xff, SIZE); memset(p3, 0x77, 4096); if (memcmp(p, p2, SIZE)) printf("error\n"); p4 = mremap(p+SIZE/2, SIZE/2, SIZE/2, MREMAP_FIXED|MREMAP_MAYMOVE, p3); if (p4 != p3) perror("mremap"), exit(1); p4 = mremap(p4, SIZE/2, SIZE/2, MREMAP_FIXED|MREMAP_MAYMOVE, p+SIZE/2); if (p4 != p+SIZE/2) perror("mremap"), exit(1); if (memcmp(p, p2, SIZE)) printf("error\n"); printf("ok\n"); return 0; } === $ perf probe -a anon_vma_moveto_tail Add new event: probe:anon_vma_moveto_tail (on anon_vma_moveto_tail) You can now use it on all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:anon_vma_moveto_tail -aR sleep 1 $ perf record -e probe:anon_vma_moveto_tail -aR ./anon_vma_moveto_tail 0x7f2ca2800000 ok [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.043 MB perf.data (~1860 samples) ] $ perf report --stdio 100.00% anon_vma_moveto [kernel.kallsyms] [k] anon_vma_moveto_tail Signed-off-by: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Reported-by: Nai Xia <nai.xia@gmail.com> Acked-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Pawel Sikora <pluto@agmk.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2012-01-10bootmem: micro optimize freeing pages in bulkUwe Kleine-König
The first entry of bdata->node_bootmem_map holds the data for bdata->node_min_pfn up to bdata->node_min_pfn + BITS_PER_LONG - 1. So the test for freeing all pages of a single map entry can be slightly relaxed. Moreover use DIV_ROUND_UP in another place instead of open coding it.
