new_non_cma_page() in gup.c requires to allocate the new page that is not
on the CMA area. new_non_cma_page() implements it by using allocation
scope APIs.
However, there is a work-around for hugetlb. Normal hugetlb page
allocation API for migration is alloc_huge_page_nodemask(). It consists
of two steps. First is dequeing from the pool. Second is, if there is no
available page on the queue, allocating by using the page allocator.
new_non_cma_page() can't use this API since first step (deque) isn't aware
of scope API to exclude CMA area. So, new_non_cma_page() exports hugetlb
internal function for the second step, alloc_migrate_huge_page(), to
global scope and uses it directly. This is suboptimal since hugetlb pages
on the queue cannot be utilized.
This patch tries to fix this situation by making the deque function on
hugetlb CMA aware. In the deque function, CMA memory is skipped if
PF_MEMALLOC_NOCMA flag is found.

We have well defined scope API to exclude CMA region. Use it rather than
manipulating gfp_mask manually. With this change, we can now restore
__GFP_MOVABLE for gfp_mask like as usual migration target allocation. It
would result in that the ZONE_MOVABLE is also searched by page allocator.
For hugetlb, gfp_mask is redefined since it has a regular allocation mask
filter for migration target. __GPF_NOWARN is added to hugetlb gfp_mask
filter since a new user for gfp_mask filter, gup, want to be silent when
allocation fails.
Note that this can be considered as a fix for the commit 9a4e9f3b2d
("mm: update get_user_pages_longterm to migrate pages allocated from CMA
region"). However, "Fixes" tag isn't added here since it is just
suboptimal but it doesn't cause any problem.

There are some similar functions for migration target allocation. Since
there is no fundamental difference, it's better to keep just one rather
than keeping all variants. This patch implements base migration target
allocation function. In the following patches, variants will be converted
to use this function.
Changes should be mechanical, but, unfortunately, there are some
differences. First, some callers' nodemask is assgined to NULL since NULL
nodemask will be considered as all available nodes, that is,
&node_states[N_MEMORY]. Second, for hugetlb page allocation, gfp_mask is
redefined as regular hugetlb allocation gfp_mask plus __GFP_THISNODE if
user provided gfp_mask has it. This is because future caller of this
function requires to set this node constaint. Lastly, if provided nodeid
is NUMA_NO_NODE, nodeid is set up to the node where migration source
lives. It helps to remove simple wrappers for setting up the nodeid.
Note that PageHighmem() call in previous function is changed to open-code
"is_highmem_idx()" since it provides more readability.

There is no difference between two migration callback functions,
alloc_huge_page_node() and alloc_huge_page_nodemask(), except
__GFP_THISNODE handling. It's redundant to have two almost similar
functions in order to handle this flag. So, this patch tries to remove
one by introducing a new argument, gfp_mask, to
alloc_huge_page_nodemask().
After introducing gfp_mask argument, it's caller's job to provide correct
gfp_mask. So, every callsites for alloc_huge_page_nodemask() are changed
to provide gfp_mask.
Note that it's safe to remove a node id check in alloc_huge_page_node()
since there is no caller passing NUMA_NO_NODE as a node id.

Make kernel GNU build-id available in VMCOREINFO. Having build-id in
VMCOREINFO facilitates presenting appropriate kernel namelist image with
debug information file to kernel crash dump analysis tools. Currently
VMCOREINFO lacks uniquely identifiable key for crash analysis automation.
Regarding if this patch is necessary or matching of linux_banner and
OSRELEASE in VMCOREINFO employed by crash(8) meets the need -- IMO,
build-id approach more foolproof, in most instances it is a cryptographic
hash generated using internal code/ELF bits unlike kernel version string
upon which linux_banner is based that is external to the code. I feel
each is intended for a different purpose. Also OSRELEASE is not suitable
when two different kernel builds from same version with different features
enabled.
Currently for most linux (and non-linux) systems build-id can be extracted
using standard methods for file types such as user mode crash dumps,
shared libraries, loadable kernel modules etc., This is an exception for
linux kernel dump. Having build-id in VMCOREINFO brings some uniformity
for automation tools.
Tyler said:
: I think this is a nice improvement over today's linux_banner approach for
: correlating vmlinux to a kernel dump.
:
: The elf notes parsing in this patch lines up with what is described in in
: the "Notes (Nhdr)" section of the elf(5) man page.
:
: BUILD_ID_MAX is sufficient to hold a sha1 build-id, which is the default
: build-id type today in GNU ld(2). It is also sufficient to hold the
: "fast" build-id, which is the default build-id type today in LLVM lld(2).

The documentation of the kstrto*() functions reference the simple_strtoull
function by "used as a replacement for [the obsolete] simple_strtoull".
All these functions describes themselves as replacements for the function
simple_strtoull, even though a function like kstrtol() would be more aptly
described as a replacement of simple_strtol().
Fix these references by making the documentation of kstrto*() reference
the closest simple_strto*() equivalent available. The functions
kstrto[u]int() do not have direct simple_strto[u]int() equivalences, so
these are made to refer to simple_strto[u]l() instead.
Furthermore, add parentheses after function names, as is standard in
kernel documentation.

The current_gfp_context() converts a number of PF_MEMALLOC_* per-process
flags into the corresponding GFP_* flags for memory allocation. In that
function, current->flags is accessed 3 times. That may lead to duplicated
access of the same memory location.
This is not usually a problem with minimal debug config options on as the
compiler can optimize away the duplicated memory accesses. With most of
the debug config options on, however, that may not be the case. For
example, the x86-64 object size of the __need_fs_reclaim() in a debug
kernel that calls current_gfp_context() was 309 bytes. With this patch
applied, the object size is reduced to 202 bytes. This is a saving of 107
bytes and will probably be slightly faster too.
Use READ_ONCE() to access current->flags to prevent the compiler from
possibly accessing current->flags multiple times.

Commit c0d0381ade ("hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing
synchronization") requires callers of huge_pte_alloc to hold i_mmap_rwsem
in at least read mode. This is because the explicit locking in
huge_pmd_share (called by huge_pte_alloc) was removed. When restructuring
the code, the call to huge_pte_alloc in the else block at the beginning of
hugetlb_fault was missed.
Unfortunately, that else clause is exercised when there is no page table
entry. This will likely lead to a call to huge_pmd_share. If
huge_pmd_share thinks pmd sharing is possible, it will traverse the
mapping tree (i_mmap) without holding i_mmap_rwsem. If someone else is
modifying the tree, bad things such as addressing exceptions or worse
could happen.
Simply remove the else clause. It should have been removed previously.
The code following the else will call huge_pte_alloc with the appropriate
locking.
To prevent this type of issue in the future, add routines to assert that
i_mmap_rwsem is held, and call these routines in huge pmd sharing
routines.

Recently we found an issue on our production environment that when memcg
oom is triggered the oom killer doesn't chose the process with largest
resident memory but chose the first scanned process. Note that all
processes in this memcg have the same oom_score_adj, so the oom killer
should chose the process with largest resident memory.
Bellow is part of the oom info, which is enough to analyze this issue.

We can find that the first scanned process 5740 (pause) was killed, but
its rss is only one page. That is because, when we calculate the oom
badness in oom_badness(), we always ignore the negtive point and convert
all of these negtive points to 1. Now as oom_score_adj of all the
processes in this targeted memcg have the same value -998, the points of
these processes are all negtive value. As a result, the first scanned
process will be killed.
The oom_socre_adj (-998) in this memcg is set by kubelet, because it is a
a Guaranteed pod, which has higher priority to prevent from being killed
by system oom.
To fix this issue, we should make the calculation of oom point more
accurate. We can achieve it by convert the chosen_point from 'unsigned

For some applications, we need to allocate almost all memory as hugepages.
However, on a running system, higher-order allocations can fail if the
memory is fragmented. Linux kernel currently does on-demand compaction as
we request more hugepages, but this style of compaction incurs very high
latency. Experiments with one-time full memory compaction (followed by
hugepage allocations) show that kernel is able to restore a highly
fragmented memory state to a fairly compacted memory state within <1 sec
for a 32G system. Such data suggests that a more proactive compaction can
help us allocate a large fraction of memory as hugepages keeping
allocation latencies low.
For a more proactive compaction, the approach taken here is to define a
new sysctl called 'vm.compaction_proactiveness' which dictates bounds for
external fragmentation which kcompactd tries to maintain.
The tunable takes a value in range [0, 100], with a default of 20.
Note that a previous version of this patch [1] was found to introduce too
many tunables (per-order extfrag{low, high}), but this one reduces them to
just one sysctl. Also, the new tunable is an opaque value instead of
asking for specific bounds of "external fragmentation", which would have
been difficult to estimate. The internal interpretation of this opaque
value allows for future fine-tuning.
Currently, we use a simple translation from this tunable to [low, high]
"fragmentation score" thresholds (low=100-proactiveness, high=low+10%).
The score for a node is defined as weighted mean of per-zone external
fragmentation. A zone's present_pages determines its weight.
To periodically check per-node score, we reuse per-node kcompactd threads,
which are woken up every 500 milliseconds to check the same. If a node's
score exceeds its high threshold (as derived from user-provided
proactiveness value), proactive compaction is started until its score
reaches its low threshold value. By default, proactiveness is set to 20,
which implies threshold values of low=80 and high=90.
This patch is largely based on ideas from Michal Hocko [2]. See also the
LWN article [3].
Performance data
================
System: x64_64, 1T RAM, 80 CPU threads.
Kernel: 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch
echo madvise | sudo tee /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled
echo madvise | sudo tee /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag
Before starting the driver, the system was fragmented from a userspace
program that allocates all memory and then for each 2M aligned section,
frees 3/4 of base pages using munmap. The workload is mainly anonymous
userspace pages, which are easy to move around. I intentionally avoided
unmovable pages in this test to see how much latency we incur when
hugepage allocations hit direct compaction.
1. Kernel hugepage allocation latencies
With the system in such a fragmented state, a kernel driver then allocates
as many hugepages as possible and measures allocation latency:
(all latency values are in microseconds)
- With vanilla 5.6.0-rc3
percentile latency

Total 2M hugepages allocated = 383859 (749G worth of hugepages out of 762G
total free => 98% of free memory could be allocated as hugepages)
- With 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch, with proactiveness=20
sysctl -w vm.compaction_proactiveness=20

Total 2M hugepages allocated = 384105 (750G worth of hugepages out of 762G
total free => 98% of free memory could be allocated as hugepages)
2. JAVA heap allocation
In this test, we first fragment memory using the same method as for (1).
Then, we start a Java process with a heap size set to 700G and request the
heap to be allocated with THP hugepages. We also set THP to madvise to
allow hugepage backing of this heap.
/usr/bin/time
java -Xms700G -Xmx700G -XX:+UseTransparentHugePages -XX:+AlwaysPreTouch
The above command allocates 700G of Java heap using hugepages.
- With vanilla 5.6.0-rc3
17.39user 1666.48system 27:37.89elapsed
- With 5.6.0-rc3 + this patch, with proactiveness=20
8.35user 194.58system 3:19.62elapsed
Elapsed time remains around 3:15, as proactiveness is further increased.
Note that proactive compaction happens throughout the runtime of these
workloads. The situation of one-time compaction, sufficient to supply
hugepages for following allocation stream, can probably happen for more
extreme proactiveness values, like 80 or 90.
In the above Java workload, proactiveness is set to 20. The test starts
with a node's score of 80 or higher, depending on the delay between the
fragmentation step and starting the benchmark, which gives more-or-less
time for the initial round of compaction. As t he benchmark consumes
hugepages, node's score quickly rises above the high threshold (90) and
proactive compaction starts again, which brings down the score to the low
threshold level (80). Repeat.
bpftrace also confirms proactive compaction running 20+ times during the
runtime of this Java benchmark. kcompactd threads consume 100% of one of
the CPUs while it tries to bring a node's score within thresholds.
Backoff behavior
================
Above workloads produce a memory state which is easy to compact. However,
if memory is filled with unmovable pages, proactive compaction should
essentially back off. To test this aspect:
- Created a kernel driver that allocates almost all memory as hugepages
followed by freeing first 3/4 of each hugepage.
- Set proactiveness=40
- Note that proactive_compact_node() is deferred maximum number of times
with HPAGE_FRAG_CHECK_INTERVAL_MSEC of wait between each check
(=> ~30 seconds between retries).

In current implementation, newly created or swap-in anonymous page is
started on active list. Growing active list results in rebalancing
active/inactive list so old pages on active list are demoted to inactive
list. Hence, the page on active list isn't protected at all.
Following is an example of this situation.
Assume that 50 hot pages on active list. Numbers denote the number of
pages on active/inactive list (active | inactive).
1. 50 hot pages on active list
50(h) | 0
2. workload: 50 newly created (used-once) pages
50(uo) | 50(h)
3. workload: another 50 newly created (used-once) pages
50(uo) | 50(uo), swap-out 50(h)
This patch tries to fix this issue. Like as file LRU, newly created or
swap-in anonymous pages will be inserted to the inactive list. They are
promoted to active list if enough reference happens. This simple
modification changes the above example as following.
1. 50 hot pages on active list
50(h) | 0
2. workload: 50 newly created (used-once) pages
50(h) | 50(uo)
3. workload: another 50 newly created (used-once) pages
50(h) | 50(uo), swap-out 50(uo)
As you can see, hot pages on active list would be protected.
Note that, this implementation has a drawback that the page cannot be
promoted and will be swapped-out if re-access interval is greater than the
size of inactive list but less than the size of total(active+inactive).
To solve this potential issue, following patch will apply workingset
detection similar to the one that's already applied to file LRU.

In the reservation routine, we only check whether the cpuset meets the
memory allocation requirements. But we ignore the mempolicy of MPOL_BIND
case. If someone mmap hugetlb succeeds, but the subsequent memory
allocation may fail due to mempolicy restrictions and receives the SIGBUS
signal. This can be reproduced by the follow steps.
1) Compile the test case.
cd tools/testing/selftests/vm/
gcc map_hugetlb.c -o map_hugetlb
2) Pre-allocate huge pages. Suppose there are 2 numa nodes in the
system. Each node will pre-allocate one huge page.
echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
3) Run test case(mmap 4MB). We receive the SIGBUS signal.
numactl --membind=3D0 ./map_hugetlb 4
With this patch applied, the mmap will fail in the step 3) and throw
"mmap: Cannot allocate memory".
