2020-10-18mm: cleanup the gfp_mask handling in __vmalloc_area_nodeChristoph Hellwig1-12/+10
Patch series "two small vmalloc cleanups". This patch (of 2): __vmalloc_area_node currently has four different gfp_t variables to just express this simple logic: - use the passed in mask, plus __GFP_NOWARN and __GFP_HIGHMEM (if suitable) for the underlying page allocation - use just the reclaim flags from the passed in mask plus __GFP_ZERO for allocating the page array Simplify this down to just use the pre-existing nested_gfp as-is for the page array allocation, and just the passed in gfp_mask for the page allocation, after conditionally ORing __GFP_HIGHMEM into it. This also makes the allocation warning a little more correct. Also initialize two variables at the time of declaration while touching this area.

2020-10-18mm: update the documentation for vfreeMatthew Wilcox (Oracle)1-10/+11
Patch series "remove alloc_vm_area", v4. This series removes alloc_vm_area, which was left over from the big vmalloc interface rework. It is a rather arkane interface, basicaly the equivalent of get_vm_area + actually faulting in all PTEs in the allocated area. It was originally addeds for Xen (which isn't modular to start with), and then grew users in zsmalloc and i915 which seems to mostly qualify as abuses of the interface, especially for i915 as a random driver should not set up PTE bits directly. This patch (of 11): * Document that you can call vfree() on an address returned from vmap() * Remove the note about the minimum size -- the minimum size of a vmalloc allocation is one page * Add a Context: section * Fix capitalisation * Reword the prohibition on calling from NMI context to avoid a double negative Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Boris Ostrovsky <boris.ostrovsky@oracle.com> Cc: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com> Cc: Stefano Stabellini <sstabellini@kernel.org> Cc: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@linux.intel.com> Cc: Joonas Lahtinen <joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Matthew Auld <matthew.auld@intel.com> Cc: Rodrigo Vivi <rodrigo.vivi@intel.com> Cc: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org> Cc: Uladzislau Rezki (Sony) <urezki@gmail.com> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20201002122204.1534411-1-hch@lst.de Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20201002122204.1534411-2-hch@lst.de Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2020-10-18mm/madvise: introduce process_madvise() syscall: an external memory hinting APIMinchan Kim1-1/+92
There is usecase that System Management Software(SMS) want to give a memory hint like MADV_[COLD|PAGEEOUT] to other processes and in the case of Android, it is the ActivityManagerService. The information required to make the reclaim decision is not known to the app. Instead, it is known to the centralized userspace daemon(ActivityManagerService), and that daemon must be able to initiate reclaim on its own without any app involvement. To solve the issue, this patch introduces a new syscall process_madvise(2). It uses pidfd of an external process to give the hint. It also supports vector address range because Android app has thousands of vmas due to zygote so it's totally waste of CPU and power if we should call the syscall one by one for each vma.(With testing 2000-vma syscall vs 1-vector syscall, it showed 15% performance improvement. I think it would be bigger in real practice because the testing ran very cache friendly environment). Another potential use case for the vector range is to amortize the cost ofTLB shootdowns for multiple ranges when using MADV_DONTNEED; this could benefit users like TCP receive zerocopy and malloc implementations. In future, we could find more usecases for other advises so let's make it happens as API since we introduce a new syscall at this moment. With that, existing madvise(2) user could replace it with process_madvise(2) with their own pid if they want to have batch address ranges support feature. ince it could affect other process's address range, only privileged process(PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH_FSCREDS) or something else(e.g., being the same UID) gives it the right to ptrace the process could use it successfully. The flag argument is reserved for future use if we need to extend the API. I think supporting all hints madvise has/will supported/support to process_madvise is rather risky. Because we are not sure all hints make sense from external process and implementation for the hint may rely on the caller being in the current context so it could be error-prone. Thus, I just limited hints as MADV_[COLD|PAGEOUT] in this patch. If someone want to add other hints, we could hear the usecase and review it for each hint. It's safer for maintenance rather than introducing a buggy syscall but hard to fix it later. So finally, the API is as follows, ssize_t process_madvise(int pidfd, const struct iovec *iovec, unsigned long vlen, int advice, unsigned int flags); DESCRIPTION The process_madvise() system call is used to give advice or directions to the kernel about the address ranges from external process as well as local process. It provides the advice to address ranges of process described by iovec and vlen. The goal of such advice is to improve system or application performance. The pidfd selects the process referred to by the PID file descriptor specified in pidfd. (See pidofd_open(2) for further information) The pointer iovec points to an array of iovec structures, defined in <sys/uio.h> as: struct iovec { void *iov_base; /* starting address */ size_t iov_len; /* number of bytes to be advised */ }; The iovec describes address ranges beginning at address(iov_base) and with size length of bytes(iov_len). The vlen represents the number of elements in iovec. The advice is indicated in the advice argument, which is one of the following at this moment if the target process specified by pidfd is external. MADV_COLD MADV_PAGEOUT Permission to provide a hint to external process is governed by a ptrace access mode PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH_FSCREDS check; see ptrace(2). The process_madvise supports every advice madvise(2) has if target process is in same thread group with calling process so user could use process_madvise(2) to extend existing madvise(2) to support vector address ranges. RETURN VALUE On success, process_madvise() returns the number of bytes advised. This return value may be less than the total number of requested bytes, if an error occurred. The caller should check return value to determine whether a partial advice occurred. FAQ: Q.1 - Why does any external entity have better knowledge? Quote from Sandeep "For Android, every application (including the special SystemServer) are forked from Zygote. The reason of course is to share as many libraries and classes between the two as possible to benefit from the preloading during boot. After applications start, (almost) all of the APIs end up calling into this SystemServer process over IPC (binder) and back to the application. In a fully running system, the SystemServer monitors every single process periodically to calculate their PSS / RSS and also decides which process is "important" to the user for interactivity. So, because of how these processes start _and_ the fact that the SystemServer is looping to monitor each process, it does tend to *know* which address range of the application is not used / useful. Besides, we can never rely on applications to clean things up themselves. We've had the "hey app1, the system is low on memory, please trim your memory usage down" notifications for a long time[1]. They rely on applications honoring the broadcasts and very few do. So, if we want to avoid the inevitable killing of the application and restarting it, some way to be able to tell the OS about unimportant memory in these applications will be useful. - ssp Q.2 - How to guarantee the race(i.e., object validation) between when giving a hint from an external process and get the hint from the target process? process_madvise operates on the target process's address space as it exists at the instant that process_madvise is called. If the space target process can run between the time the process_madvise process inspects the target process address space and the time that process_madvise is actually called, process_madvise may operate on memory regions that the calling process does not expect. It's the responsibility of the process calling process_madvise to close this race condition. For example, the calling process can suspend the target process with ptrace, SIGSTOP, or the freezer cgroup so that it doesn't have an opportunity to change its own address space before process_madvise is called. Another option is to operate on memory regions that the caller knows a priori will be unchanged in the target process. Yet another option is to accept the race for certain process_madvise calls after reasoning that mistargeting will do no harm. The suggested API itself does not provide synchronization. It also apply other APIs like move_pages, process_vm_write. The race isn't really a problem though. Why is it so wrong to require that callers do their own synchronization in some manner? Nobody objects to write(2) merely because it's possible for two processes to open the same file and clobber each other's writes --- instead, we tell people to use flock or something. Think about mmap. It never guarantees newly allocated address space is still valid when the user tries to access it because other threads could unmap the memory right before. That's where we need synchronization by using other API or design from userside. It shouldn't be part of API itself. If someone needs more fine-grained synchronization rather than process level, there were two ideas suggested - cookie[2] and anon-fd[3]. Both are applicable via using last reserved argument of the API but I don't think it's necessary right now since we have already ways to prevent the race so don't want to add additional complexity with more fine-grained optimization model. To make the API extend, it reserved an unsigned long as last argument so we could support it in future if someone really needs it. Q.3 - Why doesn't ptrace work? Injecting an madvise in the target process using ptrace would not work for us because such injected madvise would have to be executed by the target process, which means that process would have to be runnable and that creates the risk of the abovementioned race and hinting a wrong VMA. Furthermore, we want to act the hint in caller's context, not the callee's, because the callee is usually limited in cpuset/cgroups or even freezed state so they can't act by themselves quick enough, which causes more thrashing/kill. It doesn't work if the target process are ptraced(e.g., strace, debugger, minidump) because a process can have at most one ptracer.

2020-10-18mm/madvise: pass mm to do_madviseMinchan Kim1-14/+18
Patch series "introduce memory hinting API for external process", v9. Now, we have MADV_PAGEOUT and MADV_COLD as madvise hinting API. With that, application could give hints to kernel what memory range are preferred to be reclaimed. However, in some platform(e.g., Android), the information required to make the hinting decision is not known to the app. Instead, it is known to a centralized userspace daemon(e.g., ActivityManagerService), and that daemon must be able to initiate reclaim on its own without any app involvement. To solve the concern, this patch introduces new syscall - process_madvise(2). Bascially, it's same with madvise(2) syscall but it has some differences. 1. It needs pidfd of target process to provide the hint 2. It supports only MADV_{COLD|PAGEOUT|MERGEABLE|UNMEREABLE} at this moment. Other hints in madvise will be opened when there are explicit requests from community to prevent unexpected bugs we couldn't support. 3. Only privileged processes can do something for other process's address space. For more detail of the new API, please see "mm: introduce external memory hinting API" description in this patchset. This patch (of 3): In upcoming patches, do_madvise will be called from external process context so we shouldn't asssume "current" is always hinted process's task_struct. Furthermore, we must not access mm_struct via task->mm, but obtain it via access_mm() once (in the following patch) and only use that pointer [1], so pass it to do_madvise() as well.

To be safe against concurrent changes to the VMA tree, we must take the mmap lock around GUP operations (excluding the GUP-fast family of operations, which will take the mmap lock by themselves if necessary). This code is only for testing, and it's only reachable by root through debugfs, so this doesn't really have any impact; however, if we want to add lockdep asserts into the GUP path, we need to have clean locking here.

If a memcg to charge can be determined (using remote charging API), there are no reasons to exclude allocations made from an interrupt context from the accounting. Such allocations will pass even if the resulting memcg size will exceed the hard limit, but it will affect the application of the memory pressure and an inability to put the workload under the limit will eventually trigger the OOM.

2020-10-18mm: kmem: prepare remote memcg charging infra for interrupt contextsRoman Gushchin1-14/+34
Remote memcg charging API uses current->active_memcg to store the currently active memory cgroup, which overwrites the memory cgroup of the current process. It works well for normal contexts, but doesn't work for interrupt contexts: indeed, if an interrupt occurs during the execution of a section with an active memcg set, all allocations inside the interrupt will be charged to the active memcg set (given that we'll enable accounting for allocations from an interrupt context). But because the interrupt might have no relation to the active memcg set outside, it's obviously wrong from the accounting prospective. To resolve this problem, let's add a global percpu int_active_memcg variable, which will be used to store an active memory cgroup which will be used from interrupt contexts. set_active_memcg() will transparently use current->active_memcg or int_active_memcg depending on the context. To make the read part simple and transparent for the caller, let's introduce two new functions: - struct mem_cgroup *active_memcg(void), - struct mem_cgroup *get_active_memcg(void). They are returning the active memcg if it's set, hiding all implementation details: where to get it depending on the current context.

2020-10-18mm: kmem: move memcg_kmem_bypass() calls to get_mem/obj_cgroup_from_current()Roman Gushchin3-10/+9
Patch series "mm: kmem: kernel memory accounting in an interrupt context". This patchset implements memcg-based memory accounting of allocations made from an interrupt context. Historically, such allocations were passed unaccounted mostly because charging the memory cgroup of the current process wasn't an option. Also performance reasons were likely a reason too. The remote charging API allows to temporarily overwrite the currently active memory cgroup, so that all memory allocations are accounted towards some specified memory cgroup instead of the memory cgroup of the current process. This patchset extends the remote charging API so that it can be used from an interrupt context. Then it removes the fence that prevented the accounting of allocations made from an interrupt context. It also contains a couple of optimizations/code refactorings. This patchset doesn't directly enable accounting for any specific allocations, but prepares the code base for it. The bpf memory accounting will likely be the first user of it: a typical example is a bpf program parsing an incoming network packet, which allocates an entry in hashmap map to store some information. This patch (of 4): Currently memcg_kmem_bypass() is called before obtaining the current memory/obj cgroup using get_mem/obj_cgroup_from_current(). Moving memcg_kmem_bypass() into get_mem/obj_cgroup_from_current() reduces the number of call sites and allows further code simplifications.

2020-10-18mm, memcg: rework remote charging API to support nestingRoman Gushchin1-3/+3
Currently the remote memcg charging API consists of two functions: memalloc_use_memcg() and memalloc_unuse_memcg(), which set and clear the memcg value, which overwrites the memcg of the current task. memalloc_use_memcg(target_memcg); <...> memalloc_unuse_memcg(); It works perfectly for allocations performed from a normal context, however an attempt to call it from an interrupt context or just nest two remote charging blocks will lead to an incorrect accounting. On exit from the inner block the active memcg will be cleared instead of being restored. memalloc_use_memcg(target_memcg); memalloc_use_memcg(target_memcg_2); <...> memalloc_unuse_memcg(); Error: allocation here are charged to the memcg of the current process instead of target_memcg. memalloc_unuse_memcg(); This patch extends the remote charging API by switching to a single function: struct mem_cgroup *set_active_memcg(struct mem_cgroup *memcg), which sets the new value and returns the old one. So a remote charging block will look like: old_memcg = set_active_memcg(target_memcg); <...> set_active_memcg(old_memcg); This patch is heavily based on the patch by Johannes Weiner, which can be found here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/5/28/806 .

2020-10-17mm: use limited read-ahead to satisfy readJens Axboe1-6/+14
For the case where read-ahead is disabled on the file, or if the cgroup is congested, ensure that we can at least do 1 page of read-ahead to make progress on the read in an async fashion. This could potentially be larger, but it's not needed in terms of functionality, so let's error on the side of caution as larger counts of pages may run into reclaim issues (particularly if we're congested). This makes sure we're not hitting the potentially sync ->readpage() path for IO that is marked IOCB_WAITQ, which could cause us to block. It also means we'll use the same path for IO, regardless of whether or not read-ahead happens to be disabled on the lower level device.

2020-10-16binfmt_elf_fdpic: stop using dump_emit() on user pointers on !MMUJann Horn1-29/+28
Patch series "Fix ELF / FDPIC ELF core dumping, and use mmap_lock properly in there", v5. At the moment, we have that rather ugly mmget_still_valid() helper to work around <https://crbug.com/project-zero/1790>: ELF core dumping doesn't take the mmap_sem while traversing the task's VMAs, and if anything (like userfaultfd) then remotely messes with the VMA tree, fireworks ensue. So at the moment we use mmget_still_valid() to bail out in any writers that might be operating on a remote mm's VMAs. With this series, I'm trying to get rid of the need for that as cleanly as possible. ("cleanly" meaning "avoid holding the mmap_lock across unbounded sleeps".) Patches 1, 2, 3 and 4 are relatively unrelated cleanups in the core dumping code. Patches 5 and 6 implement the main change: Instead of repeatedly accessing the VMA list with sleeps in between, we snapshot it at the start with proper locking, and then later we just use our copy of the VMA list. This ensures that the kernel won't crash, that VMA metadata in the coredump is consistent even in the presence of concurrent modifications, and that any virtual addresses that aren't being concurrently modified have their contents show up in the core dump properly. The disadvantage of this approach is that we need a bit more memory during core dumping for storing metadata about all VMAs. At the end of the series, patch 7 removes the old workaround for this issue (mmget_still_valid()). I have tested: - Creating a simple core dump on X86-64 still works. - The created coredump on X86-64 opens in GDB and looks plausible. - X86-64 core dumps contain the first page for executable mappings at offset 0, and don't contain the first page for non-executable file mappings or executable mappings at offset !=0. - NOMMU 32-bit ARM can still generate plausible-looking core dumps through the FDPIC implementation. (I can't test this with GDB because GDB is missing some structure definition for nommu ARM, but I've poked around in the hexdump and it looked decent.) This patch (of 7): dump_emit() is for kernel pointers, and VMAs describe userspace memory. Let's be tidy here and avoid accessing userspace pointers under KERNEL_DS, even if it probably doesn't matter much on !MMU systems - especially given that it looks like we can just use the same get_dump_page() as on MMU if we move it out of the CONFIG_MMU block. One small change we have to make in get_dump_page() is to use __get_user_pages_locked() instead of __get_user_pages(), since the latter doesn't exist on nommu. On mmu builds, __get_user_pages_locked() will just call __get_user_pages() for us.

2020-10-16mm/page_alloc: place pages to tail in __free_pages_core()David Hildenbrand1-10/+23
__free_pages_core() is used when exposing fresh memory to the buddy during system boot and when onlining memory in generic_online_page(). generic_online_page() is used in two cases: 1. Direct memory onlining in online_pages(). 2. Deferred memory onlining in memory-ballooning-like mechanisms (HyperV balloon and virtio-mem), when parts of a section are kept fake-offline to be fake-onlined later on. In 1, we already place pages to the tail of the freelist. Pages will be freed to MIGRATE_ISOLATE lists first and moved to the tail of the freelists via undo_isolate_page_range(). In 2, we currently don't implement a proper rule. In case of virtio-mem, where we currently always online MAX_ORDER - 1 pages, the pages will be placed to the HEAD of the freelist - undesireable. While the hyper-v balloon calls generic_online_page() with single pages, usually it will call it on successive single pages in a larger block. The pages are fresh, so place them to the tail of the freelist and avoid the PCP. In __free_pages_core(), remove the now superflouos call to set_page_refcounted() and add a comment regarding page initialization and the refcount. Note: In 2. we currently don't shuffle. If ever relevant (page shuffling is usually of limited use in virtualized environments), we might want to shuffle after a sequence of generic_online_page() calls in the relevant callers.

2020-10-16mm/page_alloc: move pages to tail in move_to_free_list()David Hildenbrand2-3/+12
Whenever we move pages between freelists via move_to_free_list()/ move_freepages_block(), we don't actually touch the pages: 1. Page isolation doesn't actually touch the pages, it simply isolates pageblocks and moves all free pages to the MIGRATE_ISOLATE freelist. When undoing isolation, we move the pages back to the target list. 2. Page stealing (steal_suitable_fallback()) moves free pages directly between lists without touching them. 3. reserve_highatomic_pageblock()/unreserve_highatomic_pageblock() moves free pages directly between freelists without touching them. We already place pages to the tail of the freelists when undoing isolation via __putback_isolated_page(), let's do it in any case (e.g., if order <= pageblock_order) and document the behavior. To simplify, let's move the pages to the tail for all move_to_free_list()/move_freepages_block() users. In 2., the target list is empty, so there should be no change. In 3., we might observe a change, however, highatomic is more concerned about allocations succeeding than cache hotness - if we ever realize this change degrades a workload, we can special-case this instance and add a proper comment. This change results in all pages getting onlined via online_pages() to be placed to the tail of the freelist.

2020-10-16mm/page_alloc: place pages to tail in __putback_isolated_page()David Hildenbrand1-2/+16
__putback_isolated_page() already documents that pages will be placed to the tail of the freelist - this is, however, not the case for "order >= MAX_ORDER - 2" (see buddy_merge_likely()) - which should be the case for all existing users. This change affects two users: - free page reporting - page isolation, when undoing the isolation (including memory onlining). This behavior is desirable for pages that haven't really been touched lately, so exactly the two users that don't actually read/write page content, but rather move untouched pages. The new behavior is especially desirable for memory onlining, where we allow allocation of newly onlined pages via undo_isolate_page_range() in online_pages(). Right now, we always place them to the head of the freelist, resulting in undesireable behavior: Assume we add individual memory chunks via add_memory() and online them right away to the NORMAL zone. We create a dependency chain of unmovable allocations e.g., via the memmap. The memmap of the next chunk will be placed onto previous chunks - if the last block cannot get offlined+removed, all dependent ones cannot get offlined+removed. While this can already be observed with individual DIMMs, it's more of an issue for virtio-mem (and I suspect also ppc DLPAR). Document that this should only be used for optimizations, and no code should rely on this behavior for correction (if the order of the freelists ever changes). We won't care about page shuffling: memory onlining already properly shuffles after onlining. free page reporting doesn't care about physically contiguous ranges, and there are already cases where page isolation will simply move (physically close) free pages to (currently) the head of the freelists via move_freepages_block() instead of shuffling. If this becomes ever relevant, we should shuffle the whole zone when undoing isolation of larger ranges, and after free_contig_range().

2020-10-16mm/page_alloc: convert "report" flag of __free_one_page() to a proper flagDavid Hildenbrand1-5/+22
Patch series "mm: place pages to the freelist tail when onlining and undoing isolation", v2. When adding separate memory blocks via add_memory*() and onlining them immediately, the metadata (especially the memmap) of the next block will be placed onto one of the just added+onlined block. This creates a chain of unmovable allocations: If the last memory block cannot get offlined+removed() so will all dependent ones. We directly have unmovable allocations all over the place. This can be observed quite easily using virtio-mem, however, it can also be observed when using DIMMs. The freshly onlined pages will usually be placed to the head of the freelists, meaning they will be allocated next, turning the just-added memory usually immediately un-removable. The fresh pages are cold, prefering to allocate others (that might be hot) also feels to be the natural thing to do. It also applies to the hyper-v balloon xen-balloon, and ppc64 dlpar: when adding separate, successive memory blocks, each memory block will have unmovable allocations on them - for example gigantic pages will fail to allocate. While the ZONE_NORMAL doesn't provide any guarantees that memory can get offlined+removed again (any kind of fragmentation with unmovable allocations is possible), there are many scenarios (hotplugging a lot of memory, running workload, hotunplug some memory/as much as possible) where we can offline+remove quite a lot with this patchset. a) To visualize the problem, a very simple example: Start a VM with 4GB and 8GB of virtio-mem memory: [root@localhost ~]# lsmem RANGE SIZE STATE REMOVABLE BLOCK 0x0000000000000000-0x00000000bfffffff 3G online yes 0-23 0x0000000100000000-0x000000033fffffff 9G online yes 32-103 Memory block size: 128M Total online memory: 12G Total offline memory: 0B Then try to unplug as much as possible using virtio-mem. Observe which memory blocks are still around. Without this patch set: [root@localhost ~]# lsmem RANGE SIZE STATE REMOVABLE BLOCK 0x0000000000000000-0x00000000bfffffff 3G online yes 0-23 0x0000000100000000-0x000000013fffffff 1G online yes 32-39 0x0000000148000000-0x000000014fffffff 128M online yes 41 0x0000000158000000-0x000000015fffffff 128M online yes 43 0x0000000168000000-0x000000016fffffff 128M online yes 45 0x0000000178000000-0x000000017fffffff 128M online yes 47 0x0000000188000000-0x0000000197ffffff 256M online yes 49-50 0x00000001a0000000-0x00000001a7ffffff 128M online yes 52 0x00000001b0000000-0x00000001b7ffffff 128M online yes 54 0x00000001c0000000-0x00000001c7ffffff 128M online yes 56 0x00000001d0000000-0x00000001d7ffffff 128M online yes 58 0x00000001e0000000-0x00000001e7ffffff 128M online yes 60 0x00000001f0000000-0x00000001f7ffffff 128M online yes 62 0x0000000200000000-0x0000000207ffffff 128M online yes 64 0x0000000210000000-0x0000000217ffffff 128M online yes 66 0x0000000220000000-0x0000000227ffffff 128M online yes 68 0x0000000230000000-0x0000000237ffffff 128M online yes 70 0x0000000240000000-0x0000000247ffffff 128M online yes 72 0x0000000250000000-0x0000000257ffffff 128M online yes 74 0x0000000260000000-0x0000000267ffffff 128M online yes 76 0x0000000270000000-0x0000000277ffffff 128M online yes 78 0x0000000280000000-0x0000000287ffffff 128M online yes 80 0x0000000290000000-0x0000000297ffffff 128M online yes 82 0x00000002a0000000-0x00000002a7ffffff 128M online yes 84 0x00000002b0000000-0x00000002b7ffffff 128M online yes 86 0x00000002c0000000-0x00000002c7ffffff 128M online yes 88 0x00000002d0000000-0x00000002d7ffffff 128M online yes 90 0x00000002e0000000-0x00000002e7ffffff 128M online yes 92 0x00000002f0000000-0x00000002f7ffffff 128M online yes 94 0x0000000300000000-0x0000000307ffffff 128M online yes 96 0x0000000310000000-0x0000000317ffffff 128M online yes 98 0x0000000320000000-0x0000000327ffffff 128M online yes 100 0x0000000330000000-0x000000033fffffff 256M online yes 102-103 Memory block size: 128M Total online memory: 8.1G Total offline memory: 0B With this patch set: [root@localhost ~]# lsmem RANGE SIZE STATE REMOVABLE BLOCK 0x0000000000000000-0x00000000bfffffff 3G online yes 0-23 0x0000000100000000-0x000000013fffffff 1G online yes 32-39 Memory block size: 128M Total online memory: 4G Total offline memory: 0B All memory can get unplugged, all memory block can get removed. Of course, no workload ran and the system was basically idle, but it highlights the issue - the fairly deterministic chain of unmovable allocations. When a huge page for the 2MB memmap is needed, a just-onlined 4MB page will be split. The remaining 2MB page will be used for the memmap of the next memory block. So one memory block will hold the memmap of the two following memory blocks. Finally the pages of the last-onlined memory block will get used for the next bigger allocations - if any allocation is unmovable, all dependent memory blocks cannot get unplugged and removed until that allocation is gone. Note that with bigger memory blocks (e.g., 256MB), *all* memory blocks are dependent and none can get unplugged again! b) Experiment with memory intensive workload I performed an experiment with an older version of this patch set (before we used undo_isolate_page_range() in online_pages(): Hotplug 56GB to a VM with an initial 4GB, onlining all memory to ZONE_NORMAL right from the kernel when adding it. I then run various memory intensive workloads that consume most system memory for a total of 45 minutes. Once finished, I try to unplug as much memory as possible. With this change, I am able to remove via virtio-mem (adding individual 128MB memory blocks) 413 out of 448 added memory blocks. Via individual (256MB) DIMMs 380 out of 448 added memory blocks. (I don't have any numbers without this patchset, but looking at the above example, it's at most half of the 448 memory blocks for virtio-mem, and most probably none for DIMMs). Again, there are workloads that might behave very differently due to the nature of ZONE_NORMAL. This change also affects (besides memory onlining): - Other users of undo_isolate_page_range(): Pages are always placed to the tail. -- When memory offlining fails -- When memory isolation fails after having isolated some pageblocks -- When alloc_contig_range() either succeeds or fails - Other users of __putback_isolated_page(): Pages are always placed to the tail. -- Free page reporting - Other users of __free_pages_core() -- AFAIKs, any memory that is getting exposed to the buddy during boot. IIUC we will now usually allocate memory from lower addresses within a zone first (especially during boot). - Other users of generic_online_page() -- Hyper-V balloon This patch (of 5): Let's prepare for additional flags and avoid long parameter lists of bools. Follow-up patches will also make use of the flags in __free_pages_ok().

resources Some add_memory*() users add memory in small, contiguous memory blocks. Examples include virtio-mem, hyper-v balloon, and the XEN balloon. This can quickly result in a lot of memory resources, whereby the actual resource boundaries are not of interest (e.g., it might be relevant for DIMMs, exposed via /proc/iomem to user space). We really want to merge added resources in this scenario where possible. Let's provide a flag (MEMHP_MERGE_RESOURCE) to specify that a resource either created within add_memory*() or passed via add_memory_resource() shall be marked mergeable and merged with applicable siblings. To implement that, we need a kernel/resource interface to mark selected System RAM resources mergeable (IORESOURCE_SYSRAM_MERGEABLE) and trigger merging. Note: We really want to merge after the whole operation succeeded, not directly when adding a resource to the resource tree (it would break add_memory_resource() and require splitting resources again when the operation failed - e.g., due to -ENOMEM).

2020-10-16mm/memory_hotplug: guard more declarations by CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUGDavid Hildenbrand1-0/+2
We soon want to pass flags via a new type to add_memory() and friends. That revealed that we currently don't guard some declarations by CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG. While some definitions could be moved to different places, let's keep it minimal for now and use CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG for all functions only compiled with CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG. Wrap sparse_decode_mem_map() into CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG, it's only called from CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG code. While at it, remove allow_online_pfn_range(), which is no longer around, and mhp_notimplemented(), which is unused.
