*
* NUMA policy allows the user to give hints in which node(s) memory should
* be allocated.
*
* Support four policies per VMA and per process:
*
* The VMA policy has priority over the process policy for a page fault.
*
* interleave Allocate memory interleaved over a set of nodes,
* with normal fallback if it fails.
* For VMA based allocations this interleaves based on the
* offset into the backing object or offset into the mapping
* for anonymous memory. For process policy an process counter
* is used.
*
* bind Only allocate memory on a specific set of nodes,
* no fallback.
* FIXME: memory is allocated starting with the first node
* to the last. It would be better if bind would truly restrict
* the allocation to memory nodes instead
*
* preferred Try a specific node first before normal fallback.
* As a special case NUMA_NO_NODE here means do the allocation
* on the local CPU. This is normally identical to default,
* but useful to set in a VMA when you have a non default
* process policy.
*
* default Allocate on the local node first, or when on a VMA
* use the process policy. This is what Linux always did
* in a NUMA aware kernel and still does by, ahem, default.
*
* The process policy is applied for most non interrupt memory allocations
* in that process' context. Interrupts ignore the policies and always
* try to allocate on the local CPU. The VMA policy is only applied for memory
* allocations for a VMA in the VM.
*
* Currently there are a few corner cases in swapping where the policy
* is not applied, but the majority should be handled. When process policy
* is used it is not remembered over swap outs/swap ins.
*
* Only the highest zone in the zone hierarchy gets policied. Allocations
* requesting a lower zone just use default policy. This implies that
* on systems with highmem kernel lowmem allocation don't get policied.
* Same with GFP_DMA allocations.
*
* For shmfs/tmpfs/hugetlbfs shared memory the policy is shared between
* all users and remembered even when nobody has memory mapped.

ksm: memory hotremove migration only The previous patch enables page migration of ksm pages, but that soon gets into trouble: not surprising, since we're using the ksm page lock to lock operations on its stable_node, but page migration switches the page whose lock is to be used for that. Another layer of locking would fix it, but do we need that yet? Do we actually need page migration of ksm pages? Yes, memory hotremove needs to offline sections of memory: and since we stopped allocating ksm pages with GFP_HIGHUSER, they will tend to be GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE candidates for migration. But KSM is currently unconscious of NUMA issues, happily merging pages from different NUMA nodes: at present the rule must be, not to use MADV_MERGEABLE where you care about NUMA. So no, NUMA page migration of ksm pages does not make sense yet. So, to complete support for ksm swapping we need to make hotremove safe. ksm_memory_callback() take ksm_thread_mutex when MEM_GOING_OFFLINE and release it when MEM_OFFLINE or MEM_CANCEL_OFFLINE. But if mapped pages are freed before migration reaches them, stable_nodes may be left still pointing to struct pages which have been removed from the system: the stable_node needs to identify a page by pfn rather than page pointer, then it can safely prune them when MEM_OFFLINE. And make NUMA migration skip PageKsm pages where it skips PageReserved. But it's only when we reach unmap_and_move() that the page lock is taken and we can be sure that raised pagecount has prevented a PageAnon from being upgraded: so add offlining arg to migrate_pages(), to migrate ksm page when offlining (has sufficient locking) but reject it otherwise.

mempolicy: rework shmem mpol parsing and display mm/shmem.c currently contains functions to parse and display memory policy strings for the tmpfs 'mpol' mount option. Move this to mm/mempolicy.c with the rest of the mempolicy support. With subsequent patches, we'll be able to remove knowledge of the details [mode, flags, policy, ...] completely from shmem.c 1) replace shmem_parse_mpol() in mm/shmem.c with mpol_parse_str() in mm/mempolicy.c. Rework to use the policy_types[] array [used by mpol_to_str()] to look up mode by name. 2) use mpol_to_str() to format policy for shmem_show_mpol(). mpol_to_str() expects a pointer to a struct mempolicy, so temporarily construct one. This will be replaced with a reference to a struct mempolicy in the tmpfs superblock in a subsequent patch. NOTE 1: I changed mpol_to_str() to use a colon ':' rather than an equal sign '=' as the nodemask delimiter to match mpol_parse_str() and the tmpfs/shmem mpol mount option formatting that now uses mpol_to_str(). This is a user visible change to numa_maps, but then the addition of the mode flags already changed the display. It makes sense to me to have the mounts and numa_maps display the policy in the same format. However, if anyone objects strongly, I can pass the desired nodemask delimeter as an arg to mpol_to_str(). Note 2: Like show_numa_map(), I don't check the return code from mpol_to_str(). I do use a longer buffer than the one provided by show_numa_map(), which seems to have sufficed so far.

cpusets: randomize node rotor used in cpuset_mem_spread_node() [ This patch has already been accepted as commit 0ac0c0d0f837 but later reverted (commit 35926ff5fba8) because it itroduced arch specific __node_random which was defined only for x86 code so it broke other archs. This is a followup without any arch specific code. Other than that there are no functional changes.] Some workloads that create a large number of small files tend to assign too many pages to node 0 (multi-node systems). Part of the reason is that the rotor (in cpuset_mem_spread_node()) used to assign nodes starts at node 0 for newly created tasks. This patch changes the rotor to be initialized to a random node number of the cpuset.

vmscan: move isolate_lru_page() to vmscan.c On large memory systems, the VM can spend way too much time scanning through pages that it cannot (or should not) evict from memory. Not only does it use up CPU time, but it also provokes lock contention and can leave large systems under memory presure in a catatonic state. This patch series improves VM scalability by: 1) putting filesystem backed, swap backed and unevictable pages onto their own LRUs, so the system only scans the pages that it can/should evict from memory 2) switching to two handed clock replacement for the anonymous LRUs, so the number of pages that need to be scanned when the system starts swapping is bound to a reasonable number 3) keeping unevictable pages off the LRU completely, so the VM does not waste CPU time scanning them. ramfs, ramdisk, SHM_LOCKED shared memory segments and mlock()ed VMA pages are keept on the unevictable list. This patch: isolate_lru_page logically belongs to be in vmscan.c than migrate.c. It is tough, because we don't need that function without memory migration so there is a valid argument to have it in migrate.c. However a subsequent patch needs to make use of it in the core mm, so we can happily move it to vmscan.c. Also, make the function a little more generic by not requiring that it adds an isolated page to a given list. Callers can do that. Note that we now have '__isolate_lru_page()', that does something quite different, visible outside of vmscan.c for use with memory controller.

[PATCH] optional ZONE_DMA: deal with cases of ZONE_DMA meaning the first zone This patchset follows up on the earlier work in Andrew's tree to reduce the number of zones. The patches allow to go to a minimum of 2 zones. This one allows also to make ZONE_DMA optional and therefore the number of zones can be reduced to one. ZONE_DMA is usually used for ISA DMA devices. There are a number of reasons why we would not want to have ZONE_DMA 1. Some arches do not need ZONE_DMA at all. 2. With the advent of IOMMUs DMA zones are no longer needed. The necessity of DMA zones may drastically be reduced in the future. This patchset allows a compilation of a kernel without that overhead. 3. Devices that require ISA DMA get rare these days. All my systems do not have any need for ISA DMA. 4. The presence of an additional zone unecessarily complicates VM operations because it must be scanned and balancing logic must operate on its. 5. With only ZONE_NORMAL one can reach the situation where we have only one zone. This will allow the unrolling of many loops in the VM and allows the optimization of varous code paths in the VM. 6. Having only a single zone in a NUMA system results in a 1-1 correspondence between nodes and zones. Various additional optimizations to critical VM paths become possible. Many systems today can operate just fine with a single zone. If you look at what is in ZONE_DMA then one usually sees that nothing uses it. The DMA slabs are empty (Some arches use ZONE_DMA instead of ZONE_NORMAL, then ZONE_NORMAL will be empty instead). On all of my systems (i386, x86_64, ia64) ZONE_DMA is completely empty. Why constantly look at an empty zone in /proc/zoneinfo and empty slab in /proc/slabinfo? Non i386 also frequently have no need for ZONE_DMA and zones stay empty. The patchset was tested on i386 (UP / SMP), x86_64 (UP, NUMA) and ia64 (NUMA). The RFC posted earlier (see http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=115231723513008&w=2) had lots of #ifdefs in them. An effort has been made to minize the number of #ifdefs and make this as compact as possible. The job was made much easier by the ongoing efforts of others to extract common arch specific functionality. I have been running this for awhile now on my desktop and finally Linux is using all my available RAM instead of leaving the 16MB in ZONE_DMA untouched: christoph@pentium940:~$ cat /proc/zoneinfo Node 0, zone Normal pages free 4435 min 1448 low 1810 high 2172 active 241786 inactive 210170 scanned 0 (a: 0 i: 0) spanned 524224 present 524224 nr_anon_pages 61680 nr_mapped 14271 nr_file_pages 390264 nr_slab_reclaimable 27564 nr_slab_unreclaimable 1793 nr_page_table_pages 449 nr_dirty 39 nr_writeback 0 nr_unstable 0 nr_bounce 0 cpu: 0 pcp: 0 count: 156 high: 186 batch: 31 cpu: 0 pcp: 1 count: 9 high: 62 batch: 15 vm stats threshold: 20 cpu: 1 pcp: 0 count: 177 high: 186 batch: 31 cpu: 1 pcp: 1 count: 12 high: 62 batch: 15 vm stats threshold: 20 all_unreclaimable: 0 prev_priority: 12 temp_priority: 12 start_pfn: 0 This patch: In two places in the VM we use ZONE_DMA to refer to the first zone. If ZONE_DMA is optional then other zones may be first. So simply replace ZONE_DMA with zone 0. This also fixes ZONETABLE_PGSHIFT. If we have only a single zone then ZONES_PGSHIFT may become 0 because there is no need anymore to encode the zone number related to a pgdat. However, we still need a zonetable to index all the zones for each node if this is a NUMA system. Therefore define ZONETABLE_SHIFT unconditionally as the offset of the ZONE field in page flags.

mempolicy: use MPOL_PREFERRED for system-wide default policy Currently, when one specifies MPOL_DEFAULT via a NUMA memory policy API [set_mempolicy(), mbind() and internal versions], the kernel simply installs a NULL struct mempolicy pointer in the appropriate context: task policy, vma policy, or shared policy. This causes any use of that policy to "fall back" to the next most specific policy scope. The only use of MPOL_DEFAULT to mean "local allocation" is in the system default policy. This requires extra checks/cases for MPOL_DEFAULT in many mempolicy.c functions. There is another, "preferred" way to specify local allocation via the APIs. That is using the MPOL_PREFERRED policy mode with an empty nodemask. Internally, the empty nodemask gets converted to a preferred_node id of '-1'. All internal usage of MPOL_PREFERRED will convert the '-1' to the id of the node local to the cpu where the allocation occurs. System default policy, except during boot, is hard-coded to "local allocation". By using the MPOL_PREFERRED mode with a negative value of preferred node for system default policy, MPOL_DEFAULT will never occur in the 'policy' member of a struct mempolicy. Thus, we can remove all checks for MPOL_DEFAULT when converting policy to a node id/zonelist in the allocation paths. In slab_node() return local node id when policy pointer is NULL. No need to set a pol value to take the switch default. Replace switch default with BUG()--i.e., shouldn't happen. With this patch MPOL_DEFAULT is only used in the APIs, including internal calls to do_set_mempolicy() and in the display of policy in /proc/<pid>/numa_maps. It always means "fall back" to the the next most specific policy scope. This simplifies the description of memory policies quite a bit, with no visible change in behavior. get_mempolicy() continues to return MPOL_DEFAULT and an empty nodemask when the requested policy [task or vma/shared] is NULL. These are the values one would supply via set_mempolicy() or mbind() to achieve that condition--default behavior. This patch updates Documentation to reflect this change.

mempolicy: restructure rebinding-mempolicy functions Nick Piggin reported that the allocator may see an empty nodemask when changing cpuset's mems[1]. It happens only on the kernel that do not do atomic nodemask_t stores. (MAX_NUMNODES > BITS_PER_LONG) But I found that there is also a problem on the kernel that can do atomic nodemask_t stores. The problem is that the allocator can't find a node to alloc page when changing cpuset's mems though there is a lot of free memory. The reason is like this: (mpol: mempolicy) task1 task1's mpol task2 alloc page 1 alloc on node0? NO 1 1 change mems from 1 to 0 1 rebind task1's mpol 0-1 set new bits 0 clear disallowed bits alloc on node1? NO 0 ... can't alloc page goto oom I can use the attached program reproduce it by the following step: # mkdir /dev/cpuset # mount -t cpuset cpuset /dev/cpuset # mkdir /dev/cpuset/1 # echo `cat /dev/cpuset/cpus` > /dev/cpuset/1/cpus # echo `cat /dev/cpuset/mems` > /dev/cpuset/1/mems # echo $$ > /dev/cpuset/1/tasks # numactl --membind=`cat /dev/cpuset/mems` ./cpuset_mem_hog <nr_tasks> & <nr_tasks> = max(nr_cpus - 1, 1) # killall -s SIGUSR1 cpuset_mem_hog # ./change_mems.sh several hours later, oom will happen though there is a lot of free memory. This patchset fixes this problem by expanding the nodes range first(set newly allowed bits) and shrink it lazily(clear newly disallowed bits). So we use a variable to tell the write-side task that read-side task is reading nodemask, and the write-side task clears newly disallowed nodes after read-side task ends the current memory allocation. This patch: In order to fix no node to alloc memory, when we want to update mempolicy and mems_allowed, we expand the set of nodes first (set all the newly nodes) and shrink the set of nodes lazily(clean disallowed nodes), But the mempolicy's rebind functions may breaks the expanding. So we restructure the mempolicy's rebind functions and split the rebind work to two steps, just like the update of cpuset's mems: The 1st step: expand the set of the mempolicy's nodes. The 2nd step: shrink the set of the mempolicy's nodes. It is used when there is no real lock to protect the mempolicy in the read-side. Otherwise we can do rebind work at once. In order to implement it, we define enum mpol_rebind_step { MPOL_REBIND_ONCE, MPOL_REBIND_STEP1, MPOL_REBIND_STEP2, MPOL_REBIND_NSTEP, }; If the mempolicy needn't be updated by two steps, we can pass MPOL_REBIND_ONCE to the rebind functions. Or we can pass MPOL_REBIND_STEP1 to do the first step of the rebind work and pass MPOL_REBIND_STEP2 to do the second step work. Besides that, it maybe long time between these two step and we have to release the lock that protects mempolicy and mems_allowed. If we hold the lock once again, we must check whether the current mempolicy is under the rebinding (the first step has been done) or not, because the task may alloc a new mempolicy when we don't hold the lock. So we defined the following flag to identify it: #define MPOL_F_REBINDING (1 << 2) The new functions will be used in the next patch.

mempolicy: add MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES flag Add an optional mempolicy mode flag, MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES, that suppresses the node remap when the policy is rebound. Adds another member to struct mempolicy, nodemask_t user_nodemask, as part of a union with cpuset_mems_allowed: struct mempolicy { ... union { nodemask_t cpuset_mems_allowed; nodemask_t user_nodemask; } w; } that stores the the nodemask that the user passed when he or she created the mempolicy via set_mempolicy() or mbind(). When using MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES, which is passed with any mempolicy mode, the user's passed nodemask intersected with the VMA or task's allowed nodes is always used when determining the preferred node, setting the MPOL_BIND zonelist, or creating the interleave nodemask. This happens whenever the policy is rebound, including when a task's cpuset assignment changes or the cpuset's mems are changed. This creates an interesting side-effect in that it allows the mempolicy "intent" to lie dormant and uneffected until it has access to the node(s) that it desires. For example, if you currently ask for an interleaved policy over a set of nodes that you do not have access to, the mempolicy is not created and the task continues to use the previous policy. With this change, however, it is possible to create the same mempolicy; it is only effected when access to nodes in the nodemask is acquired. It is also possible to mount tmpfs with the static nodemask behavior when specifying a node or nodemask.

mempolicy: add MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES flag Add an optional mempolicy mode flag, MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES, that suppresses the node remap when the policy is rebound. Adds another member to struct mempolicy, nodemask_t user_nodemask, as part of a union with cpuset_mems_allowed: struct mempolicy { ... union { nodemask_t cpuset_mems_allowed; nodemask_t user_nodemask; } w; } that stores the the nodemask that the user passed when he or she created the mempolicy via set_mempolicy() or mbind(). When using MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES, which is passed with any mempolicy mode, the user's passed nodemask intersected with the VMA or task's allowed nodes is always used when determining the preferred node, setting the MPOL_BIND zonelist, or creating the interleave nodemask. This happens whenever the policy is rebound, including when a task's cpuset assignment changes or the cpuset's mems are changed. This creates an interesting side-effect in that it allows the mempolicy "intent" to lie dormant and uneffected until it has access to the node(s) that it desires. For example, if you currently ask for an interleaved policy over a set of nodes that you do not have access to, the mempolicy is not created and the task continues to use the previous policy. With this change, however, it is possible to create the same mempolicy; it is only effected when access to nodes in the nodemask is acquired. It is also possible to mount tmpfs with the static nodemask behavior when specifying a node or nodemask. To do this, simply add "=static" immediately following the mempolicy mode at mount time: mount -o remount mpol=interleave=static:1-3 Also removes mpol_check_policy() and folds its logic into mpol_new() since it is now obsoleted.

cpuset,mm: update tasks' mems_allowed in time Fix allocating page cache/slab object on the unallowed node when memory spread is set by updating tasks' mems_allowed after its cpuset's mems is changed. In order to update tasks' mems_allowed in time, we must modify the code of memory policy. Because the memory policy is applied in the process's context originally. After applying this patch, one task directly manipulates anothers mems_allowed, and we use alloc_lock in the task_struct to protect mems_allowed and memory policy of the task. But in the fast path, we didn't use lock to protect them, because adding a lock may lead to performance regression. But if we don't add a lock,the task might see no nodes when changing cpuset's mems_allowed to some non-overlapping set. In order to avoid it, we set all new allowed nodes, then clear newly disallowed ones. [lee.schermerhorn@hp.com: The rework of mpol_new() to extract the adjusting of the node mask to apply cpuset and mpol flags "context" breaks set_mempolicy() and mbind() with MPOL_PREFERRED and a NULL nodemask--i.e., explicit local allocation. Fix this by adding the check for MPOL_PREFERRED and empty node mask to mpol_new_mpolicy(). Remove the now unneeded 'nodes = NULL' from mpol_new(). Note that mpol_new_mempolicy() is always called with a non-NULL 'nodes' parameter now that it has been removed from mpol_new(). Therefore, we don't need to test nodes for NULL before testing it for 'empty'.

This function applies cpuset set context, usually constraining nodes to those allowed by the cpuset. However, when the 'RELATIVE_NODES flag is set, it also translates the nodes.

cpuset,mm: update tasks' mems_allowed in time Fix allocating page cache/slab object on the unallowed node when memory spread is set by updating tasks' mems_allowed after its cpuset's mems is changed. In order to update tasks' mems_allowed in time, we must modify the code of memory policy. Because the memory policy is applied in the process's context originally. After applying this patch, one task directly manipulates anothers mems_allowed, and we use alloc_lock in the task_struct to protect mems_allowed and memory policy of the task. But in the fast path, we didn't use lock to protect them, because adding a lock may lead to performance regression. But if we don't add a lock,the task might see no nodes when changing cpuset's mems_allowed to some non-overlapping set. In order to avoid it, we set all new allowed nodes, then clear newly disallowed ones.

Fix this by adding the check for MPOL_PREFERRED and empty node mask to mpol_new_mpolicy(). Remove the now unneeded 'nodes = NULL' from mpol_new(). Note that mpol_new_mempolicy() is always called with a non-NULL 'nodes' parameter now that it has been removed from mpol_new().

mempolicy: support optional mode flags With the evolution of mempolicies, it is necessary to support mempolicy mode flags that specify how the policy shall behave in certain circumstances. The most immediate need for mode flag support is to suppress remapping the nodemask of a policy at the time of rebind. Both the mempolicy mode and flags are passed by the user in the 'int policy' formal of either the set_mempolicy() or mbind() syscall. A new constant, MPOL_MODE_FLAGS, represents the union of legal optional flags that may be passed as part of this int. Mempolicies that include illegal flags as part of their policy are rejected as invalid. An additional member to struct mempolicy is added to support the mode flags: struct mempolicy { ... unsigned short policy; unsigned short flags; } The splitting of the 'int' actual passed by the user is done in sys_set_mempolicy() and sys_mbind() for their respective syscalls. This is done by intersecting the actual with MPOL_MODE_FLAGS, rejecting the syscall of there are additional flags, and storing it in the new 'flags' member of struct mempolicy. The intersection of the actual with ~MPOL_MODE_FLAGS is stored in the 'policy' member of the struct and all current users of pol->policy remain unchanged. The union of the policy mode and optional mode flags is passed back to the user in get_mempolicy(). This combination of mode and flags within the same actual does not break userspace code that relies on get_mempolicy(&policy, ...) and either switch (policy) { case MPOL_BIND: ... case MPOL_INTERLEAVE: ... }; statements or if (policy == MPOL_INTERLEAVE) { ... } statements. Such applications would need to use optional mode flags when calling set_mempolicy() or mbind() for these previously implemented statements to stop working. If an application does start using optional mode flags, it will need to mask the optional flags off the policy in switch and conditional statements that only test mode. An additional member is also added to struct shmem_sb_info to store the optional mode flags.

mempolicy: rework mempolicy Reference Counting [yet again] After further discussion with Christoph Lameter, it has become clear that my earlier attempts to clean up the mempolicy reference counting were a bit of overkill in some areas, resulting in superflous ref/unref in what are usually fast paths. In other areas, further inspection reveals that I botched the unref for interleave policies. A separate patch, suitable for upstream/stable trees, fixes up the known errors in the previous attempt to fix reference counting. This patch reworks the memory policy referencing counting and, one hopes, simplifies the code. Maybe I'll get it right this time. See the update to the numa_memory_policy.txt document for a discussion of memory policy reference counting that motivates this patch. Summary: Lookup of mempolicy, based on (vma, address) need only add a reference for shared policy, and we need only unref the policy when finished for shared policies. So, this patch backs out all of the unneeded extra reference counting added by my previous attempt. It then unrefs only shared policies when we're finished with them, using the mpol_cond_put() [conditional put] helper function introduced by this patch. Note that shmem_swapin() calls read_swap_cache_async() with a dummy vma containing just the policy. read_swap_cache_async() can call alloc_page_vma() multiple times, so we can't let alloc_page_vma() unref the shared policy in this case. To avoid this, we make a copy of any non-null shared policy and remove the MPOL_F_SHARED flag from the copy. This copy occurs before reading a page [or multiple pages] from swap, so the overhead should not be an issue here. I introduced a new static inline function "mpol_cond_copy()" to copy the shared policy to an on-stack policy and remove the flags that would require a conditional free. The current implementation of mpol_cond_copy() assumes that the struct mempolicy contains no pointers to dynamically allocated structures that must be duplicated or reference counted during copy.

mempolicy: restructure rebinding-mempolicy functions Nick Piggin reported that the allocator may see an empty nodemask when changing cpuset's mems[1]. It happens only on the kernel that do not do atomic nodemask_t stores. (MAX_NUMNODES > BITS_PER_LONG) But I found that there is also a problem on the kernel that can do atomic nodemask_t stores. The problem is that the allocator can't find a node to alloc page when changing cpuset's mems though there is a lot of free memory. The reason is like this: (mpol: mempolicy) task1 task1's mpol task2 alloc page 1 alloc on node0? NO 1 1 change mems from 1 to 0 1 rebind task1's mpol 0-1 set new bits 0 clear disallowed bits alloc on node1? NO 0 ... can't alloc page goto oom I can use the attached program reproduce it by the following step: # mkdir /dev/cpuset # mount -t cpuset cpuset /dev/cpuset # mkdir /dev/cpuset/1 # echo `cat /dev/cpuset/cpus` > /dev/cpuset/1/cpus # echo `cat /dev/cpuset/mems` > /dev/cpuset/1/mems # echo $$ > /dev/cpuset/1/tasks # numactl --membind=`cat /dev/cpuset/mems` ./cpuset_mem_hog <nr_tasks> & <nr_tasks> = max(nr_cpus - 1, 1) # killall -s SIGUSR1 cpuset_mem_hog # ./change_mems.sh several hours later, oom will happen though there is a lot of free memory. This patchset fixes this problem by expanding the nodes range first(set newly allowed bits) and shrink it lazily(clear newly disallowed bits). So we use a variable to tell the write-side task that read-side task is reading nodemask, and the write-side task clears newly disallowed nodes after read-side task ends the current memory allocation. This patch: In order to fix no node to alloc memory, when we want to update mempolicy and mems_allowed, we expand the set of nodes first (set all the newly nodes) and shrink the set of nodes lazily(clean disallowed nodes), But the mempolicy's rebind functions may breaks the expanding. So we restructure the mempolicy's rebind functions and split the rebind work to two steps, just like the update of cpuset's mems: The 1st step: expand the set of the mempolicy's nodes. The 2nd step: shrink the set of the mempolicy's nodes. It is used when there is no real lock to protect the mempolicy in the read-side. Otherwise we can do rebind work at once. In order to implement it, we define enum mpol_rebind_step { MPOL_REBIND_ONCE, MPOL_REBIND_STEP1, MPOL_REBIND_STEP2, MPOL_REBIND_NSTEP, }; If the mempolicy needn't be updated by two steps, we can pass MPOL_REBIND_ONCE to the rebind functions. Or we can pass MPOL_REBIND_STEP1 to do the first step of the rebind work and pass MPOL_REBIND_STEP2 to do the second step work. Besides that, it maybe long time between these two step and we have to release the lock that protects mempolicy and mems_allowed. If we hold the lock once again, we must check whether the current mempolicy is under the rebinding (the first step has been done) or not, because the task may alloc a new mempolicy when we don't hold the lock. So we defined the following flag to identify it: #define MPOL_F_REBINDING (1 << 2) The new functions will be used in the next patch.

mempolicy: restructure rebinding-mempolicy functions Nick Piggin reported that the allocator may see an empty nodemask when changing cpuset's mems[1]. It happens only on the kernel that do not do atomic nodemask_t stores. (MAX_NUMNODES > BITS_PER_LONG) But I found that there is also a problem on the kernel that can do atomic nodemask_t stores. The problem is that the allocator can't find a node to alloc page when changing cpuset's mems though there is a lot of free memory. The reason is like this: (mpol: mempolicy) task1 task1's mpol task2 alloc page 1 alloc on node0? NO 1 1 change mems from 1 to 0 1 rebind task1's mpol 0-1 set new bits 0 clear disallowed bits alloc on node1? NO 0 ... can't alloc page goto oom I can use the attached program reproduce it by the following step: # mkdir /dev/cpuset # mount -t cpuset cpuset /dev/cpuset # mkdir /dev/cpuset/1 # echo `cat /dev/cpuset/cpus` > /dev/cpuset/1/cpus # echo `cat /dev/cpuset/mems` > /dev/cpuset/1/mems # echo $$ > /dev/cpuset/1/tasks # numactl --membind=`cat /dev/cpuset/mems` ./cpuset_mem_hog <nr_tasks> & <nr_tasks> = max(nr_cpus - 1, 1) # killall -s SIGUSR1 cpuset_mem_hog # ./change_mems.sh several hours later, oom will happen though there is a lot of free memory. This patchset fixes this problem by expanding the nodes range first(set newly allowed bits) and shrink it lazily(clear newly disallowed bits). So we use a variable to tell the write-side task that read-side task is reading nodemask, and the write-side task clears newly disallowed nodes after read-side task ends the current memory allocation. This patch: In order to fix no node to alloc memory, when we want to update mempolicy and mems_allowed, we expand the set of nodes first (set all the newly nodes) and shrink the set of nodes lazily(clean disallowed nodes), But the mempolicy's rebind functions may breaks the expanding. So we restructure the mempolicy's rebind functions and split the rebind work to two steps, just like the update of cpuset's mems: The 1st step: expand the set of the mempolicy's nodes. The 2nd step: shrink the set of the mempolicy's nodes. It is used when there is no real lock to protect the mempolicy in the read-side. Otherwise we can do rebind work at once. In order to implement it, we define enum mpol_rebind_step { MPOL_REBIND_ONCE, MPOL_REBIND_STEP1, MPOL_REBIND_STEP2, MPOL_REBIND_NSTEP, }; If the mempolicy needn't be updated by two steps, we can pass MPOL_REBIND_ONCE to the rebind functions. Or we can pass MPOL_REBIND_STEP1 to do the first step of the rebind work and pass MPOL_REBIND_STEP2 to do the second step work. Besides that, it maybe long time between these two step and we have to release the lock that protects mempolicy and mems_allowed. If we hold the lock once again, we must check whether the current mempolicy is under the rebinding (the first step has been done) or not, because the task may alloc a new mempolicy when we don't hold the lock. So we defined the following flag to identify it: #define MPOL_F_REBINDING (1 << 2) The new functions will be used in the next patch.

mempolicy: add MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES flag Add an optional mempolicy mode flag, MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES, that suppresses the node remap when the policy is rebound. Adds another member to struct mempolicy, nodemask_t user_nodemask, as part of a union with cpuset_mems_allowed: struct mempolicy { ... union { nodemask_t cpuset_mems_allowed; nodemask_t user_nodemask; } w; } that stores the the nodemask that the user passed when he or she created the mempolicy via set_mempolicy() or mbind(). When using MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES, which is passed with any mempolicy mode, the user's passed nodemask intersected with the VMA or task's allowed nodes is always used when determining the preferred node, setting the MPOL_BIND zonelist, or creating the interleave nodemask. This happens whenever the policy is rebound, including when a task's cpuset assignment changes or the cpuset's mems are changed. This creates an interesting side-effect in that it allows the mempolicy "intent" to lie dormant and uneffected until it has access to the node(s) that it desires. For example, if you currently ask for an interleaved policy over a set of nodes that you do not have access to, the mempolicy is not created and the task continues to use the previous policy. With this change, however, it is possible to create the same mempolicy; it is only effected when access to nodes in the nodemask is acquired. It is also possible to mount tmpfs with the static nodemask behavior when specifying a node or nodemask. To do this, simply add "=static" immediately following the mempolicy mode at mount time: mount -o remount mpol=interleave=static:1-3 Also removes mpol_check_policy() and folds its logic into mpol_new() since it is now obsoleted. The unused vma_mpol_equal() is also removed.

cpuset,mm: update tasks' mems_allowed in time Fix allocating page cache/slab object on the unallowed node when memory spread is set by updating tasks' mems_allowed after its cpuset's mems is changed. In order to update tasks' mems_allowed in time, we must modify the code of memory policy. Because the memory policy is applied in the process's context originally. After applying this patch, one task directly manipulates anothers mems_allowed, and we use alloc_lock in the task_struct to protect mems_allowed and memory policy of the task. But in the fast path, we didn't use lock to protect them, because adding a lock may lead to performance regression. But if we don't add a lock,the task might see no nodes when changing cpuset's mems_allowed to some non-overlapping set. In order to avoid it, we set all new allowed nodes, then clear newly disallowed ones. [lee.schermerhorn@hp.com: The rework of mpol_new() to extract the adjusting of the node mask to apply cpuset and mpol flags "context" breaks set_mempolicy() and mbind() with MPOL_PREFERRED and a NULL nodemask--i.e., explicit local allocation. Fix this by adding the check for MPOL_PREFERRED and empty node mask to mpol_new_mpolicy(). Remove the now unneeded 'nodes = NULL' from mpol_new(). Note that mpol_new_mempolicy() is always called with a non-NULL 'nodes' parameter now that it has been removed from mpol_new(). Therefore, we don't need to test nodes for NULL before testing it for 'empty'. However, just to be extra paranoid, add a VM_BUG_ON() to verify this assumption.] [lee.schermerhorn@hp.com: I don't think the function name 'mpol_new_mempolicy' is descriptive enough to differentiate it from mpol_new(). This function applies cpuset set context, usually constraining nodes to those allowed by the cpuset. However, when the 'RELATIVE_NODES flag is set, it also translates the nodes. So I settled on 'mpol_set_nodemask()', because the comment block for mpol_new() mentions that we need to call this function to "set nodes".

mempolicy: restructure rebinding-mempolicy functions Nick Piggin reported that the allocator may see an empty nodemask when changing cpuset's mems[1]. It happens only on the kernel that do not do atomic nodemask_t stores. (MAX_NUMNODES > BITS_PER_LONG) But I found that there is also a problem on the kernel that can do atomic nodemask_t stores. The problem is that the allocator can't find a node to alloc page when changing cpuset's mems though there is a lot of free memory. The reason is like this: (mpol: mempolicy) task1 task1's mpol task2 alloc page 1 alloc on node0? NO 1 1 change mems from 1 to 0 1 rebind task1's mpol 0-1 set new bits 0 clear disallowed bits alloc on node1? NO 0 ... can't alloc page goto oom I can use the attached program reproduce it by the following step: # mkdir /dev/cpuset # mount -t cpuset cpuset /dev/cpuset # mkdir /dev/cpuset/1 # echo `cat /dev/cpuset/cpus` > /dev/cpuset/1/cpus # echo `cat /dev/cpuset/mems` > /dev/cpuset/1/mems # echo $$ > /dev/cpuset/1/tasks # numactl --membind=`cat /dev/cpuset/mems` ./cpuset_mem_hog <nr_tasks> & <nr_tasks> = max(nr_cpus - 1, 1) # killall -s SIGUSR1 cpuset_mem_hog # ./change_mems.sh several hours later, oom will happen though there is a lot of free memory. This patchset fixes this problem by expanding the nodes range first(set newly allowed bits) and shrink it lazily(clear newly disallowed bits). So we use a variable to tell the write-side task that read-side task is reading nodemask, and the write-side task clears newly disallowed nodes after read-side task ends the current memory allocation. This patch: In order to fix no node to alloc memory, when we want to update mempolicy and mems_allowed, we expand the set of nodes first (set all the newly nodes) and shrink the set of nodes lazily(clean disallowed nodes), But the mempolicy's rebind functions may breaks the expanding. So we restructure the mempolicy's rebind functions and split the rebind work to two steps, just like the update of cpuset's mems: The 1st step: expand the set of the mempolicy's nodes. The 2nd step: shrink the set of the mempolicy's nodes. It is used when there is no real lock to protect the mempolicy in the read-side. Otherwise we can do rebind work at once. In order to implement it, we define enum mpol_rebind_step { MPOL_REBIND_ONCE, MPOL_REBIND_STEP1, MPOL_REBIND_STEP2, MPOL_REBIND_NSTEP, }; If the mempolicy needn't be updated by two steps, we can pass MPOL_REBIND_ONCE to the rebind functions. Or we can pass MPOL_REBIND_STEP1 to do the first step of the rebind work and pass MPOL_REBIND_STEP2 to do the second step work. Besides that, it maybe long time between these two step and we have to release the lock that protects mempolicy and mems_allowed. If we hold the lock once again, we must check whether the current mempolicy is under the rebinding (the first step has been done) or not, because the task may alloc a new mempolicy when we don't hold the lock. So we defined the following flag to identify it: #define MPOL_F_REBINDING (1 << 2) The new functions will be used in the next patch.

ksm: memory hotremove migration only The previous patch enables page migration of ksm pages, but that soon gets into trouble: not surprising, since we're using the ksm page lock to lock operations on its stable_node, but page migration switches the page whose lock is to be used for that. Another layer of locking would fix it, but do we need that yet? Do we actually need page migration of ksm pages? Yes, memory hotremove needs to offline sections of memory: and since we stopped allocating ksm pages with GFP_HIGHUSER, they will tend to be GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE candidates for migration. But KSM is currently unconscious of NUMA issues, happily merging pages from different NUMA nodes: at present the rule must be, not to use MADV_MERGEABLE where you care about NUMA. So no, NUMA page migration of ksm pages does not make sense yet. So, to complete support for ksm swapping we need to make hotremove safe. ksm_memory_callback() take ksm_thread_mutex when MEM_GOING_OFFLINE and release it when MEM_OFFLINE or MEM_CANCEL_OFFLINE. But if mapped pages are freed before migration reaches them, stable_nodes may be left still pointing to struct pages which have been removed from the system: the stable_node needs to identify a page by pfn rather than page pointer, then it can safely prune them when MEM_OFFLINE. And make NUMA migration skip PageKsm pages where it skips PageReserved. But it's only when we reach unmap_and_move() that the page lock is taken and we can be sure that raised pagecount has prevented a PageAnon from being upgraded: so add offlining arg to migrate_pages(), to migrate ksm page when offlining (has sufficient locking) but reject it otherwise.

mm: thp: fix pmd_bad() triggering in code paths holding mmap_sem read mode In some cases it may happen that pmd_none_or_clear_bad() is called with the mmap_sem hold in read mode. In those cases the huge page faults can allocate hugepmds under pmd_none_or_clear_bad() and that can trigger a false positive from pmd_bad() that will not like to see a pmd materializing as trans huge. It's not khugepaged causing the problem, khugepaged holds the mmap_sem in write mode (and all those sites must hold the mmap_sem in read mode to prevent pagetables to go away from under them, during code review it seems vm86 mode on 32bit kernels requires that too unless it's restricted to 1 thread per process or UP builds). The race is only with the huge pagefaults that can convert a pmd_none() into a pmd_trans_huge(). Effectively all these pmd_none_or_clear_bad() sites running with mmap_sem in read mode are somewhat speculative with the page faults, and the result is always undefined when they run simultaneously. This is probably why it wasn't common to run into this. For example if the madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) runs zap_page_range() shortly before the page fault, the hugepage will not be zapped, if the page fault runs first it will be zapped. Altering pmd_bad() not to error out if it finds hugepmds won't be enough to fix this, because zap_pmd_range would then proceed to call zap_pte_range (which would be incorrect if the pmd become a pmd_trans_huge()). The simplest way to fix this is to read the pmd in the local stack (regardless of what we read, no need of actual CPU barriers, only compiler barrier needed), and be sure it is not changing under the code that computes its value. Even if the real pmd is changing under the value we hold on the stack, we don't care. If we actually end up in zap_pte_range it means the pmd was not none already and it was not huge, and it can't become huge from under us (khugepaged locking explained above). All we need is to enforce that there is no way anymore that in a code path like below, pmd_trans_huge can be false, but pmd_none_or_clear_bad can run into a hugepmd. The overhead of a barrier() is just a compiler tweak and should not be measurable (I only added it for THP builds). I don't exclude different compiler versions may have prevented the race too by caching the value of *pmd on the stack (that hasn't been verified, but it wouldn't be impossible considering pmd_none_or_clear_bad, pmd_bad, pmd_trans_huge, pmd_none are all inlines and there's no external function called in between pmd_trans_huge and pmd_none_or_clear_bad). if (pmd_trans_huge(*pmd)) { if (next-addr != HPAGE_PMD_SIZE) { VM_BUG_ON(!rwsem_is_locked(&tlb->mm->mmap_sem)); split_huge_page_pmd(vma->vm_mm, pmd); } else if (zap_huge_pmd(tlb, vma, pmd, addr)) continue; /* fall through */ } if (pmd_none_or_clear_bad(pmd)) Because this race condition could be exercised without special privileges this was reported in CVE-2012-1179. The race was identified and fully explained by Ulrich who debugged it. I'm quoting his accurate explanation below, for reference. ====== start quote ======= mapcount 0 page_mapcount 1 kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:1384! At some point prior to the panic, a "bad pmd ..." message similar to the following is logged on the console: mm/memory.c:145: bad pmd ffff8800376e1f98(80000000314000e7). The "bad pmd ..." message is logged by pmd_clear_bad() before it clears the page's PMD table entry. 143 void pmd_clear_bad(pmd_t *pmd) 144 { -> 145 pmd_ERROR(*pmd); 146 pmd_clear(pmd); 147 } After the PMD table entry has been cleared, there is an inconsistency between the actual number of PMD table entries that are mapping the page and the page's map count (_mapcount field in struct page). When the page is subsequently reclaimed, __split_huge_page() detects this inconsistency. 1381 if (mapcount != page_mapcount(page)) 1382 printk(KERN_ERR "mapcount %d page_mapcount %d\n", 1383 mapcount, page_mapcount(page)); -> 1384 BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page)); The root cause of the problem is a race of two threads in a multithreaded process.

Thread B holds the page_table_lock while the page's map count and PMD table entry are updated. However, Thread A does not synchronize on that lock. ====== end quote ======= [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] Reported-by: Ulrich Obergfell <uobergfe@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com> Acked-by: Larry Woodman <lwoodman@redhat.com> Acked-by: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> [2.6.38+] Cc: Mark Salter <msalter@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

mm: numa: Add pte updates, hinting and migration stats It is tricky to quantify the basic cost of automatic NUMA placement in a meaningful manner. This patch adds some vmstats that can be used as part of a basic costing model. u = basic unit = sizeof(void *) Ca = cost of struct page access = sizeof(struct page) / u Cpte = Cost PTE access = Ca Cupdate = Cost PTE update = (2 * Cpte) + (2 * Wlock) where Cpte is incurred twice for a read and a write and Wlock is a constant representing the cost of taking or releasing a lock Cnumahint = Cost of a minor page fault = some high constant e.g. 1000 Cpagerw = Cost to read or write a full page = Ca + PAGE_SIZE/u Ci = Cost of page isolation = Ca + Wi where Wi is a constant that should reflect the approximate cost of the locking operation Cpagecopy = Cpagerw + (Cpagerw * Wnuma) + Ci + (Ci * Wnuma) where Wnuma is the approximate NUMA factor. 1 is local. 1.2 would imply that remote accesses are 20% more expensive Balancing cost = Cpte * numa_pte_updates + Cnumahint * numa_hint_faults + Ci * numa_pages_migrated + Cpagecopy * numa_pages_migrated Note that numa_pages_migrated is used as a measure of how many pages were isolated even though it would miss pages that failed to migrate. A vmstat counter could have been added for it but the isolation cost is pretty marginal in comparison to the overall cost so it seemed overkill. The ideal way to measure automatic placement benefit would be to count the number of remote accesses versus local accesses and do something like benefit = (remote_accesses_before - remove_access_after) * Wnuma but the information is not readily available. As a workload converges, the expection would be that the number of remote numa hints would reduce to 0. convergence = numa_hint_faults_local / numa_hint_faults where this is measured for the last N number of numa hints recorded. When the workload is fully converged the value is 1. This can measure if the placement policy is converging and how fast it is doing it.

Ideally, the shared policy handling would be rewritten to either properly handle COW of the policy structures or at least reference count MPOL_F_SHARED based exclusively on information within the policy. However, this patch takes the easier approach of disabling any policy sharing between VMAs. Each new range allocated with sp_alloc will allocate a new policy, set the reference count to 1 and drop the reference count of the old policy. This increases the memory footprint but is not expected to be a major problem as mbind() is unlikely to be used for fine-grained ranges. It is also inefficient because it means we allocate a new policy even in cases where mbind_range() could use the new_policy passed to it. However, it is more straight-forward and the change should be invisible to the user.

In the following case mbind(addr, len) should replace the memory policies of both vma1 and vma2 and thus they will become to share the same mempolicy and the new mempolicy will have the MPOL_F_SHARED flag. +-------------------+-------------------+ | vma1 | vma2(shmem) | +-------------------+-------------------+ | | addr addr+len alloc_pages_vma() uses get_vma_policy() and mpol_cond_put() pair for maintaining the mempolicy reference count. The current rule is that get_vma_policy() only increments refcount for shmem VMA and mpol_conf_put() only decrements refcount if the policy has MPOL_F_SHARED. In above case, vma1 is not shmem vma and vma->policy has MPOL_F_SHARED! The reference count will be decreased even though was not increased whenever alloc_page_vma() is called. This has been broken since commit [52cd3b07: mempolicy: rework mempolicy Reference Counting] in 2008. There is another serious bug with the sharing of memory policies. Currently, mempolicy rebind logic (it is called from cpuset rebinding) ignores a refcount of mempolicy and override it forcibly. Thus, any mempolicy sharing may cause mempolicy corruption. The bug was introduced by commit [68860ec1: cpusets: automatic numa mempolicy rebinding]. Ideally, the shared policy handling would be rewritten to either properly handle COW of the policy structures or at least reference count MPOL_F_SHARED based exclusively on information within the policy. However, this patch takes the easier approach of disabling any policy sharing between VMAs. Each new range allocated with sp_alloc will allocate a new policy, set the reference count to 1 and drop the reference count of the old policy. This increases the memory footprint but is not expected to be a major problem as mbind() is unlikely to be used for fine-grained ranges. It is also inefficient because it means we allocate a new policy even in cases where mbind_range() could use the new_policy passed to it. However, it is more straight-forward and the change should be invisible to the user.

mempolicy: support optional mode flags With the evolution of mempolicies, it is necessary to support mempolicy mode flags that specify how the policy shall behave in certain circumstances. The most immediate need for mode flag support is to suppress remapping the nodemask of a policy at the time of rebind. Both the mempolicy mode and flags are passed by the user in the 'int policy' formal of either the set_mempolicy() or mbind() syscall. A new constant, MPOL_MODE_FLAGS, represents the union of legal optional flags that may be passed as part of this int. Mempolicies that include illegal flags as part of their policy are rejected as invalid. An additional member to struct mempolicy is added to support the mode flags: struct mempolicy { ... unsigned short policy; unsigned short flags; } The splitting of the 'int' actual passed by the user is done in sys_set_mempolicy() and sys_mbind() for their respective syscalls. This is done by intersecting the actual with MPOL_MODE_FLAGS, rejecting the syscall of there are additional flags, and storing it in the new 'flags' member of struct mempolicy. The intersection of the actual with ~MPOL_MODE_FLAGS is stored in the 'policy' member of the struct and all current users of pol->policy remain unchanged. The union of the policy mode and optional mode flags is passed back to the user in get_mempolicy(). This combination of mode and flags within the same actual does not break userspace code that relies on get_mempolicy(&policy, ...) and either switch (policy) { case MPOL_BIND: ... case MPOL_INTERLEAVE: ... }; statements or if (policy == MPOL_INTERLEAVE) { ... } statements. Such applications would need to use optional mode flags when calling set_mempolicy() or mbind() for these previously implemented statements to stop working. If an application does start using optional mode flags, it will need to mask the optional flags off the policy in switch and conditional statements that only test mode. An additional member is also added to struct shmem_sb_info to store the optional mode flags.

In 2.6.30: After commit 58568d2a8215cb6f55caf2332017d7bdff954e1c ("cpuset,mm: update tasks' mems_allowed in time"), policy's mems_allowed is initialized as this. 1. policy->mems_allowd = nodes_and(task->mems_allowed, user's mask) Here, if task is in top_cpuset, task->mems_allowed is not updated from init's one. Assume user excutes command as #numactrl --interleave=all ,.... policy->mems_allowd = nodes_and(N_POSSIBLE, ALL_SET_MASK) Then, policy's mems_allowd can includes a possible node, which has no pgdat. MPOL's INTERLEAVE just scans nodemask of task->mems_allowd and access this directly. NODE_DATA(nid)->zonelist even if NODE_DATA(nid)==NULL Then, what's we need is making policy->mems_allowed be aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY. This patch does that. But to do so, extra nodemask will be on statck. Because I know cpumask has a new interface of CPUMASK_ALLOC(), I added it to node. This patch stands on old behavior. But I feel this fix itself is just a Band-Aid. But to do fundametal fix, we have to take care of memory hotplug and it takes time. (task->mems_allowd should be N_HIGH_MEMORY, I think.) mpol_set_nodemask() should be aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY and policy's nodemask should be includes only online nodes. In old behavior, this is guaranteed by frequent reference to cpuset's code. Now, most of them are removed and mempolicy has to check it by itself. To do check, a few nodemask_t will be used for calculating nodemask. But, size of nodemask_t can be big and it's not good to allocate them on stack. Now, cpumask_t has CPUMASK_ALLOC/FREE an easy code for get scratch area. NODEMASK_ALLOC/FREE shoudl be there.

mempolicy: add MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES flag Add an optional mempolicy mode flag, MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES, that suppresses the node remap when the policy is rebound. Adds another member to struct mempolicy, nodemask_t user_nodemask, as part of a union with cpuset_mems_allowed: struct mempolicy { ... union { nodemask_t cpuset_mems_allowed; nodemask_t user_nodemask; } w; } that stores the the nodemask that the user passed when he or she created the mempolicy via set_mempolicy() or mbind(). When using MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES, which is passed with any mempolicy mode, the user's passed nodemask intersected with the VMA or task's allowed nodes is always used when determining the preferred node, setting the MPOL_BIND zonelist, or creating the interleave nodemask. This happens whenever the policy is rebound, including when a task's cpuset assignment changes or the cpuset's mems are changed. This creates an interesting side-effect in that it allows the mempolicy "intent" to lie dormant and uneffected until it has access to the node(s) that it desires. For example, if you currently ask for an interleaved policy over a set of nodes that you do not have access to, the mempolicy is not created and the task continues to use the previous policy. With this change, however, it is possible to create the same mempolicy; it is only effected when access to nodes in the nodemask is acquired. It is also possible to mount tmpfs with the static nodemask behavior when specifying a node or nodemask. To do this, simply add "=static" immediately following the mempolicy mode at mount time: mount -o remount mpol=interleave=static:1-3 Also removes mpol_check_policy() and folds its logic into mpol_new() since it is now obsoleted. The unused vma_mpol_equal() is also removed.

mm: make set_mempolicy(MPOL_INTERLEAV) N_HIGH_MEMORY aware At first, init_task's mems_allowed is initialized as this. init_task->mems_allowed == node_state[N_POSSIBLE] And cpuset's top_cpuset mask is initialized as this top_cpuset->mems_allowed = node_state[N_HIGH_MEMORY] Before 2.6.29: policy's mems_allowed is initialized as this. 1. update tasks->mems_allowed by its cpuset->mems_allowed. 2. policy->mems_allowed = nodes_and(tasks->mems_allowed, user's mask) Updating task's mems_allowed in reference to top_cpuset's one. cpuset's mems_allowed is aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY, always. In 2.6.30: After commit 58568d2a8215cb6f55caf2332017d7bdff954e1c ("cpuset,mm: update tasks' mems_allowed in time"), policy's mems_allowed is initialized as this. 1. policy->mems_allowd = nodes_and(task->mems_allowed, user's mask) Here, if task is in top_cpuset, task->mems_allowed is not updated from init's one. Assume user excutes command as #numactrl --interleave=all ,.... policy->mems_allowd = nodes_and(N_POSSIBLE, ALL_SET_MASK) Then, policy's mems_allowd can includes a possible node, which has no pgdat. MPOL's INTERLEAVE just scans nodemask of task->mems_allowd and access this directly. NODE_DATA(nid)->zonelist even if NODE_DATA(nid)==NULL Then, what's we need is making policy->mems_allowed be aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY. This patch does that. But to do so, extra nodemask will be on statck. Because I know cpumask has a new interface of CPUMASK_ALLOC(), I added it to node. This patch stands on old behavior. But I feel this fix itself is just a Band-Aid. But to do fundametal fix, we have to take care of memory hotplug and it takes time. (task->mems_allowd should be N_HIGH_MEMORY, I think.) mpol_set_nodemask() should be aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY and policy's nodemask should be includes only online nodes. In old behavior, this is guaranteed by frequent reference to cpuset's code. Now, most of them are removed and mempolicy has to check it by itself. To do check, a few nodemask_t will be used for calculating nodemask. But, size of nodemask_t can be big and it's not good to allocate them on stack. Now, cpumask_t has CPUMASK_ALLOC/FREE an easy code for get scratch area. NODEMASK_ALLOC/FREE shoudl be there.

mempolicy: use MPOL_PREFERRED for system-wide default policy Currently, when one specifies MPOL_DEFAULT via a NUMA memory policy API [set_mempolicy(), mbind() and internal versions], the kernel simply installs a NULL struct mempolicy pointer in the appropriate context: task policy, vma policy, or shared policy. This causes any use of that policy to "fall back" to the next most specific policy scope. The only use of MPOL_DEFAULT to mean "local allocation" is in the system default policy. This requires extra checks/cases for MPOL_DEFAULT in many mempolicy.c functions. There is another, "preferred" way to specify local allocation via the APIs. That is using the MPOL_PREFERRED policy mode with an empty nodemask. Internally, the empty nodemask gets converted to a preferred_node id of '-1'. All internal usage of MPOL_PREFERRED will convert the '-1' to the id of the node local to the cpu where the allocation occurs. System default policy, except during boot, is hard-coded to "local allocation". By using the MPOL_PREFERRED mode with a negative value of preferred node for system default policy, MPOL_DEFAULT will never occur in the 'policy' member of a struct mempolicy. Thus, we can remove all checks for MPOL_DEFAULT when converting policy to a node id/zonelist in the allocation paths. In slab_node() return local node id when policy pointer is NULL. No need to set a pol value to take the switch default. Replace switch default with BUG()--i.e., shouldn't happen. With this patch MPOL_DEFAULT is only used in the APIs, including internal calls to do_set_mempolicy() and in the display of policy in /proc/<pid>/numa_maps. It always means "fall back" to the the next most specific policy scope. This simplifies the description of memory policies quite a bit, with no visible change in behavior. get_mempolicy() continues to return MPOL_DEFAULT and an empty nodemask when the requested policy [task or vma/shared] is NULL.

mempolicy: mPOL_PREFERRED cleanups for "local allocation" Here are a couple of "cleanups" for MPOL_PREFERRED behavior when v.preferred_node < 0 -- i.e., "local allocation": 1) [do_]get_mempolicy() calls the now renamed get_policy_nodemask() to fetch the nodemask associated with a policy. Currently, get_policy_nodemask() returns the set of nodes with memory, when the policy 'mode' is 'PREFERRED, and the preferred_node is < 0. Change to return an empty nodemask, as this is what was specified to achieve "local allocation". 2) When a task is moved into a [new] cpuset, mpol_rebind_policy() is called to adjust any task and vma policy nodes to be valid in the new cpuset. However, when the policy is MPOL_PREFERRED, and the preferred_node is <0, no rebind is necessary. The "local allocation" indication is valid in any cpuset. Existing code will "do the right thing" because node_remap() will just return the argument node when it is outside of the valid range of node ids. However, I think it is clearer and cleaner to skip the remap explicitly in this case. 3) mpol_to_str() produces a printable, "human readable" string from a struct mempolicy. For MPOL_PREFERRED with preferred_node <0, show "local", as this indicates local allocation, as the task migrates among nodes. Note that this matches the usage of "local allocation" in libnuma() and numactl. Without this change, I believe that node_set() [via set_bit()] will set bit 31, resulting in a misleading display.

mempolicy: use MPOL_PREFERRED for system-wide default policy Currently, when one specifies MPOL_DEFAULT via a NUMA memory policy API [set_mempolicy(), mbind() and internal versions], the kernel simply installs a NULL struct mempolicy pointer in the appropriate context: task policy, vma policy, or shared policy. This causes any use of that policy to "fall back" to the next most specific policy scope. The only use of MPOL_DEFAULT to mean "local allocation" is in the system default policy. This requires extra checks/cases for MPOL_DEFAULT in many mempolicy.c functions. There is another, "preferred" way to specify local allocation via the APIs. That is using the MPOL_PREFERRED policy mode with an empty nodemask. Internally, the empty nodemask gets converted to a preferred_node id of '-1'. All internal usage of MPOL_PREFERRED will convert the '-1' to the id of the node local to the cpu where the allocation occurs. System default policy, except during boot, is hard-coded to "local allocation". By using the MPOL_PREFERRED mode with a negative value of preferred node for system default policy, MPOL_DEFAULT will never occur in the 'policy' member of a struct mempolicy. Thus, we can remove all checks for MPOL_DEFAULT when converting policy to a node id/zonelist in the allocation paths. In slab_node() return local node id when policy pointer is NULL. No need to set a pol value to take the switch default. Replace switch default with BUG()--i.e., shouldn't happen. With this patch MPOL_DEFAULT is only used in the APIs, including internal calls to do_set_mempolicy() and in the display of policy in /proc/<pid>/numa_maps. It always means "fall back" to the the next most specific policy scope. This simplifies the description of memory policies quite a bit, with no visible change in behavior. get_mempolicy() continues to return MPOL_DEFAULT and an empty nodemask when the requested policy [task or vma/shared] is NULL.

mempolicy: rework mempolicy Reference Counting [yet again] After further discussion with Christoph Lameter, it has become clear that my earlier attempts to clean up the mempolicy reference counting were a bit of overkill in some areas, resulting in superflous ref/unref in what are usually fast paths. In other areas, further inspection reveals that I botched the unref for interleave policies. A separate patch, suitable for upstream/stable trees, fixes up the known errors in the previous attempt to fix reference counting. This patch reworks the memory policy referencing counting and, one hopes, simplifies the code. Maybe I'll get it right this time. See the update to the numa_memory_policy.txt document for a discussion of memory policy reference counting that motivates this patch. Summary: Lookup of mempolicy, based on (vma, address) need only add a reference for shared policy, and we need only unref the policy when finished for shared policies. So, this patch backs out all of the unneeded extra reference counting added by my previous attempt. It then unrefs only shared policies when we're finished with them, using the mpol_cond_put() [conditional put] helper function introduced by this patch. Note that shmem_swapin() calls read_swap_cache_async() with a dummy vma containing just the policy. read_swap_cache_async() can call alloc_page_vma() multiple times, so we can't let alloc_page_vma() unref the shared policy in this case. To avoid this, we make a copy of any non-null shared policy and remove the MPOL_F_SHARED flag from the copy. This copy occurs before reading a page [or multiple pages] from swap, so the overhead should not be an issue here. I introduced a new static inline function "mpol_cond_copy()" to copy the shared policy to an on-stack policy and remove the flags that would require a conditional free. The current implementation of mpol_cond_copy() assumes that the struct mempolicy contains no pointers to dynamically allocated structures that must be duplicated or reference counted during copy.

vmscan: move isolate_lru_page() to vmscan.c On large memory systems, the VM can spend way too much time scanning through pages that it cannot (or should not) evict from memory. Not only does it use up CPU time, but it also provokes lock contention and can leave large systems under memory presure in a catatonic state. This patch series improves VM scalability by: 1) putting filesystem backed, swap backed and unevictable pages onto their own LRUs, so the system only scans the pages that it can/should evict from memory 2) switching to two handed clock replacement for the anonymous LRUs, so the number of pages that need to be scanned when the system starts swapping is bound to a reasonable number 3) keeping unevictable pages off the LRU completely, so the VM does not waste CPU time scanning them. ramfs, ramdisk, SHM_LOCKED shared memory segments and mlock()ed VMA pages are keept on the unevictable list. This patch: isolate_lru_page logically belongs to be in vmscan.c than migrate.c. It is tough, because we don't need that function without memory migration so there is a valid argument to have it in migrate.c. However a subsequent patch needs to make use of it in the core mm, so we can happily move it to vmscan.c. Also, make the function a little more generic by not requiring that it adds an isolated page to a given list. Callers can do that. Note that we now have '__isolate_lru_page()', that does something quite different, visible outside of vmscan.c for use with memory controller.

[PATCH] page migration: sys_move_pages(): support moving of individual pages move_pages() is used to move individual pages of a process. The function can be used to determine the location of pages and to move them onto the desired node. move_pages() returns status information for each page. long move_pages(pid, number_of_pages_to_move, addresses_of_pages[], nodes[] or NULL, status[], flags); The addresses of pages is an array of void * pointing to the pages to be moved. The nodes array contains the node numbers that the pages should be moved to. If a NULL is passed instead of an array then no pages are moved but the status array is updated. The status request may be used to determine the page state before issuing another move_pages() to move pages. The status array will contain the state of all individual page migration attempts when the function terminates. The status array is only valid if move_pages() completed successfullly. Possible page states in status[]: 0..MAX_NUMNODES The page is now on the indicated node. -ENOENT Page is not present -EACCES Page is mapped by multiple processes and can only be moved if MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL is specified. -EPERM The page has been mlocked by a process/driver and cannot be moved. -EBUSY Page is busy and cannot be moved. Try again later. -EFAULT Invalid address (no VMA or zero page). -ENOMEM Unable to allocate memory on target node. -EIO Unable to write back page. The page must be written back in order to move it since the page is dirty and the filesystem does not provide a migration function that would allow the moving of dirty pages. -EINVAL A dirty page cannot be moved. The filesystem does not provide a migration function and has no ability to write back pages. The flags parameter indicates what types of pages to move: MPOL_MF_MOVE Move pages that are only mapped by the process. MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL Also move pages that are mapped by multiple processes. Requires sufficient capabilities. Possible return codes from move_pages() -ENOENT No pages found that would require moving. All pages are either already on the target node, not present, had an invalid address or could not be moved because they were mapped by multiple processes. -EINVAL Flags other than MPOL_MF_MOVE(_ALL) specified or an attempt to migrate pages in a kernel thread. -EPERM MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL specified without sufficient priviledges. or an attempt to move a process belonging to another user. -EACCES One of the target nodes is not allowed by the current cpuset. -ENODEV One of the target nodes is not online. -ESRCH Process does not exist. -E2BIG Too many pages to move. -ENOMEM Not enough memory to allocate control array. -EFAULT Parameters could not be accessed. A test program for move_pages() may be found with the patches on ftp.kernel.org:/pub/linux/kernel/people/christoph/pmig/patches-2.6.17-rc4-mm3 From: Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> Detailed results for sys_move_pages() Pass a pointer to an integer to get_new_page() that may be used to indicate where the completion status of a migration operation should be placed.

[PATCH] Swap Migration V5: sys_migrate_pages interface sys_migrate_pages implementation using swap based page migration This is the original API proposed by Ray Bryant in his posts during the first half of 2005 on linux-mm@kvack.org and linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org. The intent of sys_migrate is to migrate memory of a process. A process may have migrated to another node. Memory was allocated optimally for the prior context. sys_migrate_pages allows to shift the memory to the new node. sys_migrate_pages is also useful if the processes available memory nodes have changed through cpuset operations to manually move the processes memory. Paul Jackson is working on an automated mechanism that will allow an automatic migration if the cpuset of a process is changed. However, a user may decide to manually control the migration. This implementation is put into the policy layer since it uses concepts and functions that are also needed for mbind and friends. The patch also provides a do_migrate_pages function that may be useful for cpusets to automatically move memory. sys_migrate_pages does not modify policies in contrast to Ray's implementation. The current code here is based on the swap based page migration capability and thus is not able to preserve the physical layout relative to it containing nodeset (which may be a cpuset). When direct page migration becomes available then the implementation needs to be changed to do a isomorphic move of pages between different nodesets. The current implementation simply evicts all pages in source nodeset that are not in the target nodeset. Patch supports ia64, i386 and x86_64.

mempolicy: mPOL_PREFERRED cleanups for "local allocation" Here are a couple of "cleanups" for MPOL_PREFERRED behavior when v.preferred_node < 0 -- i.e., "local allocation": 1) [do_]get_mempolicy() calls the now renamed get_policy_nodemask() to fetch the nodemask associated with a policy. Currently, get_policy_nodemask() returns the set of nodes with memory, when the policy 'mode' is 'PREFERRED, and the preferred_node is < 0. Change to return an empty nodemask, as this is what was specified to achieve "local allocation". 2) When a task is moved into a [new] cpuset, mpol_rebind_policy() is called to adjust any task and vma policy nodes to be valid in the new cpuset. However, when the policy is MPOL_PREFERRED, and the preferred_node is <0, no rebind is necessary. The "local allocation" indication is valid in any cpuset. Existing code will "do the right thing" because node_remap() will just return the argument node when it is outside of the valid range of node ids. However, I think it is clearer and cleaner to skip the remap explicitly in this case. 3) mpol_to_str() produces a printable, "human readable" string from a struct mempolicy. For MPOL_PREFERRED with preferred_node <0, show "local", as this indicates local allocation, as the task migrates among nodes. Note that this matches the usage of "local allocation" in libnuma() and numactl. Without this change, I believe that node_set() [via set_bit()] will set bit 31, resulting in a misleading display.

mm: do_migrate_pages() calls migrate_to_node() even if task is already on a correct node While running an application that moves tasks from one cpuset to another I noticed that it takes much longer and moves many more pages than expected. The reason for this is do_migrate_pages() does its best to preserve the relative node differential from the first node of the cpuset because the application may have been written with that in mind. If memory was interleaved on the nodes of the source cpuset by an application do_migrate_pages() will try its best to maintain that interleaving on the nodes of the destination cpuset. This means copying the memory from all source nodes to the destination nodes even if the source and destination nodes overlap. This is a problem for userspace NUMA placement tools. The amount of time spent doing extra memory moves cancels out some of the NUMA performance improvements. Furthermore, if the number of source and destination nodes are to maintain the previous interleaving layout anyway. This patch changes do_migrate_pages() to only preserve the relative layout inside the program if the number of NUMA nodes in the source and destination mask are the same. If the number is different, we do a much more efficient migration by not touching memory that is in an allowed node. This preserves the old behaviour for programs that want it, while allowing a userspace NUMA placement tool to use the new, faster migration. This improves performance in our tests by up to a factor of 7. Without this change migrating tasks from a cpuset containing nodes 0-7 to a cpuset containing nodes 3-4, we migrate from ALL the nodes even if they are in the both the source and destination nodesets: Migrating 7 to 4 Migrating 6 to 3 Migrating 5 to 4 Migrating 4 to 3 Migrating 1 to 4 Migrating 3 to 4 Migrating 0 to 3 Migrating 2 to 3 With this change we only migrate from nodes that are not in the destination nodesets: Migrating 7 to 4 Migrating 6 to 3 Migrating 5 to 4 Migrating 2 to 3 Migrating 1 to 4 Migrating 0 to 3 Yet if we move from a cpuset containing nodes 2,3,4 to a cpuset containing 3,4,5 we still do move everything so that we preserve the desired NUMA offsets: Migrating 4 to 5 Migrating 3 to 4 Migrating 2 to 3 As far as performance is concerned this simple patch improves the time it takes to move 14, 20 and 26 large tasks from a cpuset containing nodes 0-7 to a cpuset containing nodes 1 & 3 by up to a factor of 7.

[PATCH] Swap Migration V5: sys_migrate_pages interface sys_migrate_pages implementation using swap based page migration This is the original API proposed by Ray Bryant in his posts during the first half of 2005 on linux-mm@kvack.org and linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org. The intent of sys_migrate is to migrate memory of a process. A process may have migrated to another node. Memory was allocated optimally for the prior context. sys_migrate_pages allows to shift the memory to the new node. sys_migrate_pages is also useful if the processes available memory nodes have changed through cpuset operations to manually move the processes memory. Paul Jackson is working on an automated mechanism that will allow an automatic migration if the cpuset of a process is changed. However, a user may decide to manually control the migration. This implementation is put into the policy layer since it uses concepts and functions that are also needed for mbind and friends. The patch also provides a do_migrate_pages function that may be useful for cpusets to automatically move memory. sys_migrate_pages does not modify policies in contrast to Ray's implementation. The current code here is based on the swap based page migration capability and thus is not able to preserve the physical layout relative to it containing nodeset (which may be a cpuset). When direct page migration becomes available then the implementation needs to be changed to do a isomorphic move of pages between different nodesets. The current implementation simply evicts all pages in source nodeset that are not in the target nodeset. Patch supports ia64, i386 and x86_64.

Migration: find correct vma in new_vma_page() We hit the BUG_ON() in mm/rmap.c:vma_address() when trying to migrate via mbind(MPOL_MF_MOVE) a non-anon region that spans multiple vmas. For anon-regions, we just fail to migrate any pages beyond the 1st vma in the range. This occurs because do_mbind() collects a list of pages to migrate by calling check_range(). check_range() walks the task's mm, spanning vmas as necessary, to collect the migratable pages into a list. Then, do_mbind() calls migrate_pages() passing the list of pages, a function to allocate new pages based on vma policy [new_vma_page()], and a pointer to the first vma of the range. For each page in the list, new_vma_page() calls page_address_in_vma() passing the page and the vma [first in range] to obtain the address to get for alloc_page_vma(). The page address is needed to get interleaving policy correct. If the pages in the list come from multiple vmas, eventually, new_page_address() will pass that page to page_address_in_vma() with the incorrect vma. For !PageAnon pages, this will result in a bug check in rmap.c:vma_address(). For anon pages, vma_address() will just return EFAULT and fail the migration. This patch modifies new_vma_page() to check the return value from page_address_in_vma(). If the return value is EFAULT, new_vma_page() searchs forward via vm_next for the vma that maps the page--i.e., that does not return EFAULT. This assumes that the pages in the list handed to migrate_pages() is in address order. This is currently case. The patch documents this assumption in a new comment block for new_vma_page(). If new_vma_page() cannot locate the vma mapping the page in a forward search in the mm, it will pass a NULL vma to alloc_page_vma(). This will result in the allocation using the task policy, if any, else system default policy. This situation is unlikely, but the patch documents this behavior with a comment. Note, this patch results in restarting from the first vma in a multi-vma range each time new_vma_page() is called. If this is not acceptable, we can make the vma argument a pointer, both in new_vma_page() and it's caller unmap_and_move() so that the value held by the loop in migrate_pages() always passes down the last vma in which a page was found. This will require changes to all new_page_t functions passed to migrate_pages(). Is this necessary? For this patch to work, we can't bug check in vma_address() for pages outside the argument vma. This patch removes the BUG_ON(). All other callers [besides new_vma_page()] already check the return status. Tested on x86_64, 4 node NUMA platform.

[PATCH] page migration: sys_move_pages(): support moving of individual pages move_pages() is used to move individual pages of a process. The function can be used to determine the location of pages and to move them onto the desired node. move_pages() returns status information for each page. long move_pages(pid, number_of_pages_to_move, addresses_of_pages[], nodes[] or NULL, status[], flags); The addresses of pages is an array of void * pointing to the pages to be moved. The nodes array contains the node numbers that the pages should be moved to. If a NULL is passed instead of an array then no pages are moved but the status array is updated. The status request may be used to determine the page state before issuing another move_pages() to move pages. The status array will contain the state of all individual page migration attempts when the function terminates. The status array is only valid if move_pages() completed successfullly. Possible page states in status[]: 0..MAX_NUMNODES The page is now on the indicated node. -ENOENT Page is not present -EACCES Page is mapped by multiple processes and can only be moved if MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL is specified. -EPERM The page has been mlocked by a process/driver and cannot be moved. -EBUSY Page is busy and cannot be moved. Try again later. -EFAULT Invalid address (no VMA or zero page). -ENOMEM Unable to allocate memory on target node. -EIO Unable to write back page. The page must be written back in order to move it since the page is dirty and the filesystem does not provide a migration function that would allow the moving of dirty pages. -EINVAL A dirty page cannot be moved. The filesystem does not provide a migration function and has no ability to write back pages. The flags parameter indicates what types of pages to move: MPOL_MF_MOVE Move pages that are only mapped by the process. MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL Also move pages that are mapped by multiple processes. Requires sufficient capabilities. Possible return codes from move_pages() -ENOENT No pages found that would require moving. All pages are either already on the target node, not present, had an invalid address or could not be moved because they were mapped by multiple processes. -EINVAL Flags other than MPOL_MF_MOVE(_ALL) specified or an attempt to migrate pages in a kernel thread. -EPERM MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL specified without sufficient priviledges. or an attempt to move a process belonging to another user. -EACCES One of the target nodes is not allowed by the current cpuset. -ENODEV One of the target nodes is not online. -ESRCH Process does not exist. -E2BIG Too many pages to move. -ENOMEM Not enough memory to allocate control array. -EFAULT Parameters could not be accessed. A test program for move_pages() may be found with the patches on ftp.kernel.org:/pub/linux/kernel/people/christoph/pmig/patches-2.6.17-rc4-mm3 From: Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> Detailed results for sys_move_pages() Pass a pointer to an integer to get_new_page() that may be used to indicate where the completion status of a migration operation should be placed. This allows sys_move_pags() to report back exactly what happened to each page. Wish there would be a better way to do this. Looks a bit hacky.

mempolicy: support optional mode flags With the evolution of mempolicies, it is necessary to support mempolicy mode flags that specify how the policy shall behave in certain circumstances.

mm: make set_mempolicy(MPOL_INTERLEAV) N_HIGH_MEMORY aware At first, init_task's mems_allowed is initialized as this. init_task->mems_allowed == node_state[N_POSSIBLE] And cpuset's top_cpuset mask is initialized as this top_cpuset->mems_allowed = node_state[N_HIGH_MEMORY] Before 2.6.29: policy's mems_allowed is initialized as this. 1. update tasks->mems_allowed by its cpuset->mems_allowed. 2. policy->mems_allowed = nodes_and(tasks->mems_allowed, user's mask) Updating task's mems_allowed in reference to top_cpuset's one. cpuset's mems_allowed is aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY, always. In 2.6.30: After commit 58568d2a8215cb6f55caf2332017d7bdff954e1c ("cpuset,mm: update tasks' mems_allowed in time"), policy's mems_allowed is initialized as this. 1. policy->mems_allowd = nodes_and(task->mems_allowed, user's mask) Here, if task is in top_cpuset, task->mems_allowed is not updated from init's one. Assume user excutes command as #numactrl --interleave=all ,.... policy->mems_allowd = nodes_and(N_POSSIBLE, ALL_SET_MASK) Then, policy's mems_allowd can includes a possible node, which has no pgdat. MPOL's INTERLEAVE just scans nodemask of task->mems_allowd and access this directly. NODE_DATA(nid)->zonelist even if NODE_DATA(nid)==NULL Then, what's we need is making policy->mems_allowed be aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY. This patch does that. But to do so, extra nodemask will be on statck. Because I know cpumask has a new interface of CPUMASK_ALLOC(), I added it to node. This patch stands on old behavior. But I feel this fix itself is just a Band-Aid. But to do fundametal fix, we have to take care of memory hotplug and it takes time. (task->mems_allowd should be N_HIGH_MEMORY, I think.) mpol_set_nodemask() should be aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY and policy's nodemask should be includes only online nodes. In old behavior, this is guaranteed by frequent reference to cpuset's code. Now, most of them are removed and mempolicy has to check it by itself. To do check, a few nodemask_t will be used for calculating nodemask. But, size of nodemask_t can be big and it's not good to allocate them on stack. Now, cpumask_t has CPUMASK_ALLOC/FREE an easy code for get scratch area. NODEMASK_ALLOC/FREE shoudl be there.

[PATCH] Swap Migration V5: sys_migrate_pages interface sys_migrate_pages implementation using swap based page migration This is the original API proposed by Ray Bryant in his posts during the first half of 2005 on linux-mm@kvack.org and linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org. The intent of sys_migrate is to migrate memory of a process. A process may have migrated to another node. Memory was allocated optimally for the prior context. sys_migrate_pages allows to shift the memory to the new node. sys_migrate_pages is also useful if the processes available memory nodes have changed through cpuset operations to manually move the processes memory. Paul Jackson is working on an automated mechanism that will allow an automatic migration if the cpuset of a process is changed. However, a user may decide to manually control the migration. This implementation is put into the policy layer since it uses concepts and functions that are also needed for mbind and friends. The patch also provides a do_migrate_pages function that may be useful for cpusets to automatically move memory. sys_migrate_pages does not modify policies in contrast to Ray's implementation. The current code here is based on the swap based page migration capability and thus is not able to preserve the physical layout relative to it containing nodeset (which may be a cpuset). When direct page migration becomes available then the implementation needs to be changed to do a isomorphic move of pages between different nodesets. The current implementation simply evicts all pages in source nodeset that are not in the target nodeset. Patch supports ia64, i386 and x86_64.

Such applications would need to use optional mode flags when calling set_mempolicy() or mbind() for these previously implemented statements to stop working. If an application does start using optional mode flags, it will need to mask the optional flags off the policy in switch and conditional statements that only test mode.

The intent of sys_migrate is to migrate memory of a process. A process may have migrated to another node. Memory was allocated optimally for the prior context. sys_migrate_pages allows to shift the memory to the new node. sys_migrate_pages is also useful if the processes available memory nodes have changed through cpuset operations to manually move the processes memory. Paul Jackson is working on an automated mechanism that will allow an automatic migration if the cpuset of a process is changed. However, a user may decide to manually control the migration. This implementation is put into the policy layer since it uses concepts and functions that are also needed for mbind and friends. The patch also provides a do_migrate_pages function that may be useful for cpusets to automatically move memory. sys_migrate_pages does not modify policies in contrast to Ray's implementation. The current code here is based on the swap based page migration capability and thus is not able to preserve the physical layout relative to it containing nodeset (which may be a cpuset). When direct page migration becomes available then the implementation needs to be changed to do a isomorphic move of pages between different nodesets.

mm: fix move/migrate_pages() race on task struct Migration functions perform the rcu_read_unlock too early. As a result the task pointed to may change from under us. This can result in an oops, as reported by Dave Hansen in https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/23/302. The following patch extend the period of the rcu_read_lock until after the permissions checks are done. We also take a refcount so that the task reference is stable when calling security check functions and performing cpuset node validation (which takes a mutex). The refcount is dropped before actual page migration occurs so there is no change to the refcounts held during page migration. Also move the determination of the mm of the task struct to immediately before the do_migrate*() calls so that it is clear that we switch from handling the task during permission checks to the mm for the actual migration. Since the determination is only done once and we then no longer use the task_struct we can be sure that we operate on a specific address space that will not change from under us.

The current code here is based on the swap based page migration capability and thus is not able to preserve the physical layout relative to it containing nodeset (which may be a cpuset).

mm: fix move/migrate_pages() race on task struct Migration functions perform the rcu_read_unlock too early. As a result the task pointed to may change from under us. This can result in an oops, as reported by Dave Hansen in https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/23/302. The following patch extend the period of the rcu_read_lock until after the permissions checks are done. We also take a refcount so that the task reference is stable when calling security check functions and performing cpuset node validation (which takes a mutex). The refcount is dropped before actual page migration occurs so there is no change to the refcounts held during page migration. Also move the determination of the mm of the task struct to immediately before the do_migrate*() calls so that it is clear that we switch from handling the task during permission checks to the mm for the actual migration. Since the determination is only done once and we then no longer use the task_struct we can be sure that we operate on a specific address space that will not change from under us.

[PATCH] Swap Migration V5: sys_migrate_pages interface sys_migrate_pages implementation using swap based page migration This is the original API proposed by Ray Bryant in his posts during the first half of 2005 on linux-mm@kvack.org and linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org. The intent of sys_migrate is to migrate memory of a process. A process may have migrated to another node. Memory was allocated optimally for the prior context. sys_migrate_pages allows to shift the memory to the new node. sys_migrate_pages is also useful if the processes available memory nodes have changed through cpuset operations to manually move the processes memory. Paul Jackson is working on an automated mechanism that will allow an automatic migration if the cpuset of a process is changed. However, a user may decide to manually control the migration. This implementation is put into the policy layer since it uses concepts and functions that are also needed for mbind and friends. The patch also provides a do_migrate_pages function that may be useful for cpusets to automatically move memory. sys_migrate_pages does not modify policies in contrast to Ray's implementation. The current code here is based on the swap based page migration capability and thus is not able to preserve the physical layout relative to it containing nodeset (which may be a cpuset). When direct page migration becomes available then the implementation needs to be changed to do a isomorphic move of pages between different nodesets. The current implementation simply evicts all pages in source nodeset that are not in the target nodeset. Patch supports ia64, i386 and x86_64.

Fix NUMA Memory Policy Reference Counting This patch proposes fixes to the reference counting of memory policy in the page allocation paths and in show_numa_map(). Extracted from my "Memory Policy Cleanups and Enhancements" series as stand-alone. Shared policy lookup [shmem] has always added a reference to the policy, but this was never unrefed after page allocation or after formatting the numa map data. Default system policy should not require additional ref counting, nor should the current task's task policy. However, show_numa_map() calls get_vma_policy() to examine what may be [likely is] another task's policy. The latter case needs protection against freeing of the policy. This patch adds a reference count to a mempolicy returned by get_vma_policy() when the policy is a vma policy or another task's mempolicy. Again, shared policy is already reference counted on lookup. A matching "unref" [__mpol_free()] is performed in alloc_page_vma() for shared and vma policies, and in show_numa_map() for shared and another task's mempolicy. We can call __mpol_free() directly, saving an admittedly inexpensive inline NULL test, because we know we have a non-NULL policy. Handling policy ref counts for hugepages is a bit trickier. huge_zonelist() returns a zone list that might come from a shared or vma 'BIND policy. In this case, we should hold the reference until after the huge page allocation in dequeue_hugepage(). The patch modifies huge_zonelist() to return a pointer to the mempolicy if it needs to be unref'd after allocation.

mm, mempolicy: fix printing stack contents in numa_maps When reading /proc/pid/numa_maps, it's possible to return the contents of the stack where the mempolicy string should be printed if the policy gets freed from beneath us. This happens because mpol_to_str() may return an error the stack-allocated buffer is then printed without ever being stored. There are two possible error conditions in mpol_to_str(): - if the buffer allocated is insufficient for the string to be stored, and - if the mempolicy has an invalid mode. The first error condition is not triggered in any of the callers to mpol_to_str(): at least 50 bytes is always allocated on the stack and this is sufficient for the string to be written. A future patch should convert this into BUILD_BUG_ON() since we know the maximum strlen possible, but that's not -rc material. The second error condition is possible if a race occurs in dropping a reference to a task's mempolicy causing it to be freed during the read(). The slab poison value is then used for the mode and mpol_to_str() returns -EINVAL. This race is only possible because get_vma_policy() believes that mm->mmap_sem protects task->mempolicy, which isn't true. The exit path does not hold mm->mmap_sem when dropping the reference or setting task->mempolicy to NULL: it uses task_lock(task) instead. Thus, it's required for the caller of a task mempolicy to hold task_lock(task) while grabbing the mempolicy and reading it. Callers with a vma policy store their mempolicy earlier and can simply increment the reference count so it's guaranteed not to be freed.

mempolicy: rework mempolicy Reference Counting [yet again] After further discussion with Christoph Lameter, it has become clear that my earlier attempts to clean up the mempolicy reference counting were a bit of overkill in some areas, resulting in superflous ref/unref in what are usually fast paths. In other areas, further inspection reveals that I botched the unref for interleave policies. A separate patch, suitable for upstream/stable trees, fixes up the known errors in the previous attempt to fix reference counting. This patch reworks the memory policy referencing counting and, one hopes, simplifies the code. Maybe I'll get it right this time. See the update to the numa_memory_policy.txt document for a discussion of memory policy reference counting that motivates this patch. Summary: Lookup of mempolicy, based on (vma, address) need only add a reference for shared policy, and we need only unref the policy when finished for shared policies. So, this patch backs out all of the unneeded extra reference counting added by my previous attempt. It then unrefs only shared policies when we're finished with them, using the mpol_cond_put() [conditional put] helper function introduced by this patch. Note that shmem_swapin() calls read_swap_cache_async() with a dummy vma containing just the policy. read_swap_cache_async() can call alloc_page_vma() multiple times, so we can't let alloc_page_vma() unref the shared policy in this case. To avoid this, we make a copy of any non-null shared policy and remove the MPOL_F_SHARED flag from the copy. This copy occurs before reading a page [or multiple pages] from swap, so the overhead should not be an issue here. I introduced a new static inline function "mpol_cond_copy()" to copy the shared policy to an on-stack policy and remove the flags that would require a conditional free. The current implementation of mpol_cond_copy() assumes that the struct mempolicy contains no pointers to dynamically allocated structures that must be duplicated or reference counted during copy.

A matching "unref" [__mpol_free()] is performed in alloc_page_vma() for shared and vma policies, and in show_numa_map() for shared and another task's mempolicy. We can call __mpol_free() directly, saving an admittedly inexpensive inline NULL test, because we know we have a non-NULL policy. Handling policy ref counts for hugepages is a bit trickier. huge_zonelist() returns a zone list that might come from a shared or vma 'BIND policy. In this case, we should hold the reference until after the huge page allocation in dequeue_hugepage(). The patch modifies huge_zonelist() to return a pointer to the mempolicy if it needs to be unref'd after allocation.

mempolicy: rework mempolicy Reference Counting [yet again] After further discussion with Christoph Lameter, it has become clear that my earlier attempts to clean up the mempolicy reference counting were a bit of overkill in some areas, resulting in superflous ref/unref in what are usually fast paths. In other areas, further inspection reveals that I botched the unref for interleave policies. A separate patch, suitable for upstream/stable trees, fixes up the known errors in the previous attempt to fix reference counting. This patch reworks the memory policy referencing counting and, one hopes, simplifies the code. Maybe I'll get it right this time. See the update to the numa_memory_policy.txt document for a discussion of memory policy reference counting that motivates this patch. Summary: Lookup of mempolicy, based on (vma, address) need only add a reference for shared policy, and we need only unref the policy when finished for shared policies. So, this patch backs out all of the unneeded extra reference counting added by my previous attempt. It then unrefs only shared policies when we're finished with them, using the mpol_cond_put() [conditional put] helper function introduced by this patch. Note that shmem_swapin() calls read_swap_cache_async() with a dummy vma containing just the policy. read_swap_cache_async() can call alloc_page_vma() multiple times, so we can't let alloc_page_vma() unref the shared policy in this case. To avoid this, we make a copy of any non-null shared policy and remove the MPOL_F_SHARED flag from the copy. This copy occurs before reading a page [or multiple pages] from swap, so the overhead should not be an issue here. I introduced a new static inline function "mpol_cond_copy()" to copy the shared policy to an on-stack policy and remove the flags that would require a conditional free. The current implementation of mpol_cond_copy() assumes that the struct mempolicy contains no pointers to dynamically allocated structures that must be duplicated or reference counted during copy.

mempolicy: add MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES flag Add an optional mempolicy mode flag, MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES, that suppresses the node remap when the policy is rebound. Adds another member to struct mempolicy, nodemask_t user_nodemask, as part of a union with cpuset_mems_allowed: struct mempolicy { ... union { nodemask_t cpuset_mems_allowed; nodemask_t user_nodemask; } w; } that stores the the nodemask that the user passed when he or she created the mempolicy via set_mempolicy() or mbind(). When using MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES, which is passed with any mempolicy mode, the user's passed nodemask intersected with the VMA or task's allowed nodes is always used when determining the preferred node, setting the MPOL_BIND zonelist, or creating the interleave nodemask. This happens whenever the policy is rebound, including when a task's cpuset assignment changes or the cpuset's mems are changed. This creates an interesting side-effect in that it allows the mempolicy "intent" to lie dormant and uneffected until it has access to the node(s) that it desires. For example, if you currently ask for an interleaved policy over a set of nodes that you do not have access to, the mempolicy is not created and the task continues to use the previous policy. With this change, however, it is possible to create the same mempolicy; it is only effected when access to nodes in the nodemask is acquired. It is also possible to mount tmpfs with the static nodemask behavior when specifying a node or nodemask. To do this, simply add "=static" immediately following the mempolicy mode at mount time: mount -o remount mpol=interleave=static:1-3 Also removes mpol_check_policy() and folds its logic into mpol_new() since it is now obsoleted. The unused vma_mpol_equal() is also removed.

[PATCH] NUMA policies in the slab allocator V2 This patch fixes a regression in 2.6.14 against 2.6.13 that causes an imbalance in memory allocation during bootup. The slab allocator in 2.6.13 is not numa aware and simply calls alloc_pages(). This means that memory policies may control the behavior of alloc_pages(). During bootup the memory policy is set to MPOL_INTERLEAVE resulting in the spreading out of allocations during bootup over all available nodes. The slab allocator in 2.6.13 has only a single list of slab pages. As a result the per cpu slab cache and the spinlock controlled page lists may contain slab entries from off node memory. The slab allocator in 2.6.13 makes no effort to discern the locality of an entry on its lists. The NUMA aware slab allocator in 2.6.14 controls locality of the slab pages explicitly by calling alloc_pages_node(). The NUMA slab allocator manages slab entries by having lists of available slab pages for each node. The per cpu slab cache can only contain slab entries associated with the node local to the processor. This guarantees that the default allocation mode of the slab allocator always assigns local memory if available. Setting MPOL_INTERLEAVE as a default policy during bootup has no effect anymore. In 2.6.14 all node unspecific slab allocations are performed on the boot processor. This means that most of key data structures are allocated on one node. Most processors will have to refer to these structures making the boot node a potential bottleneck. This may reduce performance and cause unnecessary memory pressure on the boot node. This patch implements NUMA policies in the slab layer. There is the need of explicit application of NUMA memory policies by the slab allcator itself since the NUMA slab allocator does no longer let the page_allocator control locality. The check for policies is made directly at the beginning of __cache_alloc using current->mempolicy. The memory policy is already frequently checked by the page allocator (alloc_page_vma() and alloc_page_current()). So it is highly likely that the cacheline is present. For MPOL_INTERLEAVE kmalloc() will spread out each request to one node after another so that an equal distribution of allocations can be obtained during bootup. It is not possible to push the policy check to lower layers of the NUMA slab allocator since the per cpu caches are now only containing slab entries from the current node. If the policy says that the local node is not to be preferred or forbidden then there is no point in checking the slab cache or local list of slab pages. The allocation better be directed immediately to the lists containing slab entries for the allowed set of nodes. This way of applying policy also fixes another strange behavior in 2.6.13. alloc_pages() is controlled by the memory allocation policy of the current process. It could therefore be that one process is running with MPOL_INTERLEAVE and would f.e. obtain a new page following that policy since no slab entries are in the lists anymore. A page can typically be used for multiple slab entries but lets say that the current process is only using one. The other entries are then added to the slab lists. These are now non local entries in the slab lists despite of the possible availability of local pages that would provide faster access and increase the performance of the application. Another process without MPOL_INTERLEAVE may now run and expect a local slab entry from kmalloc(). However, there are still these free slab entries from the off node page obtained from the other process via MPOL_INTERLEAVE in the cache. The process will then get an off node slab entry although other slab entries may be available that are local to that process. This means that the policy if one process may contaminate the locality of the slab caches for other processes. This patch in effect insures that a per process policy is followed for the allocation of slab entries and that there cannot be a memory policy influence from one process to another. A process with default policy will always get a local slab entry if one is available. And the process using memory policies will get its memory arranged as requested. Off-node slab allocation will require the use of spinlocks and will make the use of per cpu caches not possible. A process using memory policies to redirect allocations offnode will have to cope with additional lock overhead in addition to the latency added by the need to access a remote slab entry.

A page can typically be used for multiple slab entries but lets say that the current process is only using one. The other entries are then added to the slab lists. These are now non local entries in the slab lists despite of the possible availability of local pages that would provide faster access and increase the performance of the application. Another process without MPOL_INTERLEAVE may now run and expect a local slab entry from kmalloc(). However, there are still these free slab entries from the off node page obtained from the other process via MPOL_INTERLEAVE in the cache. The process will then get an off node slab entry although other slab entries may be available that are local to that process. This means that the policy if one process may contaminate the locality of the slab caches for other processes. This patch in effect insures that a per process policy is followed for the allocation of slab entries and that there cannot be a memory policy influence from one process to another. A process with default policy will always get a local slab entry if one is available. And the process using memory policies will get its memory arranged as requested. Off-node slab allocation will require the use of spinlocks and will make the use of per cpu caches not possible. A process using memory policies to redirect allocations offnode will have to cope with additional lock overhead in addition to the latency added by the need to access a remote slab entry.

mempolicy: use MPOL_PREFERRED for system-wide default policy Currently, when one specifies MPOL_DEFAULT via a NUMA memory policy API [set_mempolicy(), mbind() and internal versions], the kernel simply installs a NULL struct mempolicy pointer in the appropriate context: task policy, vma policy, or shared policy. This causes any use of that policy to "fall back" to the next most specific policy scope. The only use of MPOL_DEFAULT to mean "local allocation" is in the system default policy. This requires extra checks/cases for MPOL_DEFAULT in many mempolicy.c functions. There is another, "preferred" way to specify local allocation via the APIs. That is using the MPOL_PREFERRED policy mode with an empty nodemask. Internally, the empty nodemask gets converted to a preferred_node id of '-1'. All internal usage of MPOL_PREFERRED will convert the '-1' to the id of the node local to the cpu where the allocation occurs. System default policy, except during boot, is hard-coded to "local allocation". By using the MPOL_PREFERRED mode with a negative value of preferred node for system default policy, MPOL_DEFAULT will never occur in the 'policy' member of a struct mempolicy. Thus, we can remove all checks for MPOL_DEFAULT when converting policy to a node id/zonelist in the allocation paths. In slab_node() return local node id when policy pointer is NULL. No need to set a pol value to take the switch default. Replace switch default with BUG()--i.e., shouldn't happen. With this patch MPOL_DEFAULT is only used in the APIs, including internal calls to do_set_mempolicy() and in the display of policy in /proc/<pid>/numa_maps. It always means "fall back" to the the next most specific policy scope. This simplifies the description of memory policies quite a bit, with no visible change in behavior. get_mempolicy() continues to return MPOL_DEFAULT and an empty nodemask when the requested policy [task or vma/shared] is NULL. These are the values one would supply via set_mempolicy() or mbind() to achieve that condition--default behavior. This patch updates Documentation to reflect this change.

[PATCH] GFP_THISNODE for the slab allocator This patch insures that the slab node lists in the NUMA case only contain slabs that belong to that specific node. All slab allocations use GFP_THISNODE when calling into the page allocator. If an allocation fails then we fall back in the slab allocator according to the zonelists appropriate for a certain context. This allows a replication of the behavior of alloc_pages and alloc_pages node in the slab layer. Currently allocations requested from the page allocator may be redirected via cpusets to other nodes. This results in remote pages on nodelists and that in turn results in interrupt latency issues during cache draining. Plus the slab is handing out memory as local when it is really remote. Fallback for slab memory allocations will occur within the slab allocator and not in the page allocator. This is necessary in order to be able to use the existing pools of objects on the nodes that we fall back to before adding more pages to a slab. The fallback function insures that the nodes we fall back to obey cpuset restrictions of the current context. We do not allocate objects from outside of the current cpuset context like before. Note that the implementation of locality constraints within the slab allocator requires importing logic from the page allocator. This is a mischmash that is not that great. Other allocators (uncached allocator, vmalloc, huge pages) face similar problems and have similar minimal reimplementations of the basic fallback logic of the page allocator. There is another way of implementing a slab by avoiding per node lists (see modular slab) but this wont work within the existing slab.

[PATCH] NUMA policies in the slab allocator V2 This patch fixes a regression in 2.6.14 against 2.6.13 that causes an imbalance in memory allocation during bootup. The slab allocator in 2.6.13 is not numa aware and simply calls alloc_pages(). This means that memory policies may control the behavior of alloc_pages(). During bootup the memory policy is set to MPOL_INTERLEAVE resulting in the spreading out of allocations during bootup over all available nodes. The slab allocator in 2.6.13 has only a single list of slab pages. As a result the per cpu slab cache and the spinlock controlled page lists may contain slab entries from off node memory. The slab allocator in 2.6.13 makes no effort to discern the locality of an entry on its lists. The NUMA aware slab allocator in 2.6.14 controls locality of the slab pages explicitly by calling alloc_pages_node(). The NUMA slab allocator manages slab entries by having lists of available slab pages for each node. The per cpu slab cache can only contain slab entries associated with the node local to the processor. This guarantees that the default allocation mode of the slab allocator always assigns local memory if available. Setting MPOL_INTERLEAVE as a default policy during bootup has no effect anymore. In 2.6.14 all node unspecific slab allocations are performed on the boot processor. This means that most of key data structures are allocated on one node. Most processors will have to refer to these structures making the boot node a potential bottleneck. This may reduce performance and cause unnecessary memory pressure on the boot node. This patch implements NUMA policies in the slab layer. There is the need of explicit application of NUMA memory policies by the slab allcator itself since the NUMA slab allocator does no longer let the page_allocator control locality. The check for policies is made directly at the beginning of __cache_alloc using current->mempolicy. The memory policy is already frequently checked by the page allocator (alloc_page_vma() and alloc_page_current()). So it is highly likely that the cacheline is present. For MPOL_INTERLEAVE kmalloc() will spread out each request to one node after another so that an equal distribution of allocations can be obtained during bootup. It is not possible to push the policy check to lower layers of the NUMA slab allocator since the per cpu caches are now only containing slab entries from the current node. If the policy says that the local node is not to be preferred or forbidden then there is no point in checking the slab cache or local list of slab pages. The allocation better be directed immediately to the lists containing slab entries for the allowed set of nodes. This way of applying policy also fixes another strange behavior in 2.6.13. alloc_pages() is controlled by the memory allocation policy of the current process. It could therefore be that one process is running with MPOL_INTERLEAVE and would f.e. obtain a new page following that policy since no slab entries are in the lists anymore. A page can typically be used for multiple slab entries but lets say that the current process is only using one. The other entries are then added to the slab lists.

Another process without MPOL_INTERLEAVE may now run and expect a local slab entry from kmalloc(). However, there are still these free slab entries from the off node page obtained from the other process via MPOL_INTERLEAVE in the cache. The process will then get an off node slab entry although other slab entries may be available that are local to that process. This means that the policy if one process may contaminate the locality of the slab caches for other processes. This patch in effect insures that a per process policy is followed for the allocation of slab entries and that there cannot be a memory policy influence from one process to another.

Adds another member to struct mempolicy, nodemask_t user_nodemask, as part of a union with cpuset_mems_allowed: struct mempolicy { ... union { nodemask_t cpuset_mems_allowed; nodemask_t user_nodemask; } w; } that stores the the nodemask that the user passed when he or she created the mempolicy via set_mempolicy() or mbind(). When using MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES, which is passed with any mempolicy mode, the user's passed nodemask intersected with the VMA or task's allowed nodes is always used when determining the preferred node, setting the MPOL_BIND zonelist, or creating the interleave nodemask. This happens whenever the policy is rebound, including when a task's cpuset assignment changes or the cpuset's mems are changed. This creates an interesting side-effect in that it allows the mempolicy "intent" to lie dormant and uneffected until it has access to the node(s) that it desires. For example, if you currently ask for an interleaved policy over a set of nodes that you do not have access to, the mempolicy is not created and the task continues to use the previous policy. With this change, however, it is possible to create the same mempolicy; it is only effected when access to nodes in the nodemask is acquired. It is also possible to mount tmpfs with the static nodemask behavior when specifying a node or nodemask. To do this, simply add "=static" immediately following the mempolicy mode at mount time: mount -o remount mpol=interleave=static:1-3 Also removes mpol_check_policy() and folds its logic into mpol_new() since it is now obsoleted. The unused vma_mpol_equal() is also removed.

cpusets: randomize node rotor used in cpuset_mem_spread_node() [ This patch has already been accepted as commit 0ac0c0d0f837 but later reverted (commit 35926ff5fba8) because it itroduced arch specific __node_random which was defined only for x86 code so it broke other archs. This is a followup without any arch specific code. Other than that there are no functional changes.] Some workloads that create a large number of small files tend to assign too many pages to node 0 (multi-node systems). Part of the reason is that the rotor (in cpuset_mem_spread_node()) used to assign nodes starts at node 0 for newly created tasks. This patch changes the rotor to be initialized to a random node number of the cpuset.

Fix NUMA Memory Policy Reference Counting This patch proposes fixes to the reference counting of memory policy in the page allocation paths and in show_numa_map(). Extracted from my "Memory Policy Cleanups and Enhancements" series as stand-alone. Shared policy lookup [shmem] has always added a reference to the policy, but this was never unrefed after page allocation or after formatting the numa map data. Default system policy should not require additional ref counting, nor should the current task's task policy. However, show_numa_map() calls get_vma_policy() to examine what may be [likely is] another task's policy. The latter case needs protection against freeing of the policy. This patch adds a reference count to a mempolicy returned by get_vma_policy() when the policy is a vma policy or another task's mempolicy. Again, shared policy is already reference counted on lookup. A matching "unref" [__mpol_free()] is performed in alloc_page_vma() for shared and vma policies, and in show_numa_map() for shared and another task's mempolicy. We can call __mpol_free() directly, saving an admittedly inexpensive inline NULL test, because we know we have a non-NULL policy. Handling policy ref counts for hugepages is a bit trickier. huge_zonelist() returns a zone list that might come from a shared or vma 'BIND policy. In this case, we should hold the reference until after the huge page allocation in dequeue_hugepage(). The patch modifies huge_zonelist() to return a pointer to the mempolicy if it needs to be unref'd after allocation.

mempolicy: rework mempolicy Reference Counting [yet again] After further discussion with Christoph Lameter, it has become clear that my earlier attempts to clean up the mempolicy reference counting were a bit of overkill in some areas, resulting in superflous ref/unref in what are usually fast paths. In other areas, further inspection reveals that I botched the unref for interleave policies. A separate patch, suitable for upstream/stable trees, fixes up the known errors in the previous attempt to fix reference counting. This patch reworks the memory policy referencing counting and, one hopes, simplifies the code. Maybe I'll get it right this time. See the update to the numa_memory_policy.txt document for a discussion of memory policy reference counting that motivates this patch. Summary: Lookup of mempolicy, based on (vma, address) need only add a reference for shared policy, and we need only unref the policy when finished for shared policies. So, this patch backs out all of the unneeded extra reference counting added by my previous attempt. It then unrefs only shared policies when we're finished with them, using the mpol_cond_put() [conditional put] helper function introduced by this patch. Note that shmem_swapin() calls read_swap_cache_async() with a dummy vma containing just the policy. read_swap_cache_async() can call alloc_page_vma() multiple times, so we can't let alloc_page_vma() unref the shared policy in this case. To avoid this, we make a copy of any non-null shared policy and remove the MPOL_F_SHARED flag from the copy. This copy occurs before reading a page [or multiple pages] from swap, so the overhead should not be an issue here. I introduced a new static inline function "mpol_cond_copy()" to copy the shared policy to an on-stack policy and remove the flags that would require a conditional free. The current implementation of mpol_cond_copy() assumes that the struct mempolicy contains no pointers to dynamically allocated structures that must be duplicated or reference counted during copy.

cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when changing cpuset's mems Before applying this patch, cpuset updates task->mems_allowed and mempolicy by setting all new bits in the nodemask first, and clearing all old unallowed bits later. But in the way, the allocator may find that there is no node to alloc memory. The reason is that cpuset rebinds the task's mempolicy, it cleans the nodes which the allocater can alloc pages on, for example: (mpol: mempolicy) task1 task1's mpol task2 alloc page 1 alloc on node0? NO 1 1 change mems from 1 to 0 1 rebind task1's mpol 0-1 set new bits 0 clear disallowed bits alloc on node1? NO 0 ... can't alloc page goto oom This patch fixes this problem by expanding the nodes range first(set newly allowed bits) and shrink it lazily(clear newly disallowed bits). So we use a variable to tell the write-side task that read-side task is reading nodemask, and the write-side task clears newly disallowed nodes after read-side task ends the current memory allocation.

mempolicy: rework mempolicy Reference Counting [yet again] After further discussion with Christoph Lameter, it has become clear that my earlier attempts to clean up the mempolicy reference counting were a bit of overkill in some areas, resulting in superflous ref/unref in what are usually fast paths. In other areas, further inspection reveals that I botched the unref for interleave policies. A separate patch, suitable for upstream/stable trees, fixes up the known errors in the previous attempt to fix reference counting. This patch reworks the memory policy referencing counting and, one hopes, simplifies the code. Maybe I'll get it right this time. See the update to the numa_memory_policy.txt document for a discussion of memory policy reference counting that motivates this patch. Summary: Lookup of mempolicy, based on (vma, address) need only add a reference for shared policy, and we need only unref the policy when finished for shared policies. So, this patch backs out all of the unneeded extra reference counting added by my previous attempt. It then unrefs only shared policies when we're finished with them, using the mpol_cond_put() [conditional put] helper function introduced by this patch. Note that shmem_swapin() calls read_swap_cache_async() with a dummy vma containing just the policy. read_swap_cache_async() can call alloc_page_vma() multiple times, so we can't let alloc_page_vma() unref the shared policy in this case. To avoid this, we make a copy of any non-null shared policy and remove the MPOL_F_SHARED flag from the copy. This copy occurs before reading a page [or multiple pages] from swap, so the overhead should not be an issue here. I introduced a new static inline function "mpol_cond_copy()" to copy the shared policy to an on-stack policy and remove the flags that would require a conditional free. The current implementation of mpol_cond_copy() assumes that the struct mempolicy contains no pointers to dynamically allocated structures that must be duplicated or reference counted during copy.

Fix NUMA Memory Policy Reference Counting This patch proposes fixes to the reference counting of memory policy in the page allocation paths and in show_numa_map(). Extracted from my "Memory Policy Cleanups and Enhancements" series as stand-alone. Shared policy lookup [shmem] has always added a reference to the policy, but this was never unrefed after page allocation or after formatting the numa map data. Default system policy should not require additional ref counting, nor should the current task's task policy. However, show_numa_map() calls get_vma_policy() to examine what may be [likely is] another task's policy. The latter case needs protection against freeing of the policy. This patch adds a reference count to a mempolicy returned by get_vma_policy() when the policy is a vma policy or another task's mempolicy. Again, shared policy is already reference counted on lookup. A matching "unref" [__mpol_free()] is performed in alloc_page_vma() for shared and vma policies, and in show_numa_map() for shared and another task's mempolicy. We can call __mpol_free() directly, saving an admittedly inexpensive inline NULL test, because we know we have a non-NULL policy. Handling policy ref counts for hugepages is a bit trickier. huge_zonelist() returns a zone list that might come from a shared or vma 'BIND policy. In this case, we should hold the reference until after the huge page allocation in dequeue_hugepage(). The patch modifies huge_zonelist() to return a pointer to the mempolicy if it needs to be unref'd after allocation.

hugetlb: derive huge pages nodes allowed from task mempolicy This patch derives a "nodes_allowed" node mask from the numa mempolicy of the task modifying the number of persistent huge pages to control the allocation, freeing and adjusting of surplus huge pages when the pool page count is modified via the new sysctl or sysfs attribute "nr_hugepages_mempolicy". The nodes_allowed mask is derived as follows: * For "default" [NULL] task mempolicy, a NULL nodemask_t pointer is produced. This will cause the hugetlb subsystem to use node_online_map as the "nodes_allowed". This preserves the behavior before this patch. * For "preferred" mempolicy, including explicit local allocation, a nodemask with the single preferred node will be produced. "local" policy will NOT track any internode migrations of the task adjusting nr_hugepages. * For "bind" and "interleave" policy, the mempolicy's nodemask will be used. * Other than to inform the construction of the nodes_allowed node mask, the actual mempolicy mode is ignored. That is, all modes behave like interleave over the resulting nodes_allowed mask with no "fallback". See the updated documentation [next patch] for more information about the implications of this patch. Examples: Starting with: Node 0 HugePages_Total: 0 Node 1 HugePages_Total: 0 Node 2 HugePages_Total: 0 Node 3 HugePages_Total: 0 Default behavior [with or without this patch] balances persistent hugepage allocation across nodes [with sufficient contiguous memory]: sysctl vm.nr_hugepages[_mempolicy]=32 yields: Node 0 HugePages_Total: 8 Node 1 HugePages_Total: 8 Node 2 HugePages_Total: 8 Node 3 HugePages_Total: 8 Of course, we only have nr_hugepages_mempolicy with the patch, but with default mempolicy, nr_hugepages_mempolicy behaves the same as nr_hugepages. Applying mempolicy--e.g., with numactl [using '-m' a.k.a. '--membind' because it allows multiple nodes to be specified and it's easy to type]--we can allocate huge pages on individual nodes or sets of nodes. So, starting from the condition above, with 8 huge pages per node, add 8 more to node 2 using: numactl -m 2 sysctl vm.nr_hugepages_mempolicy=40 This yields: Node 0 HugePages_Total: 8 Node 1 HugePages_Total: 8 Node 2 HugePages_Total: 16 Node 3 HugePages_Total: 8 The incremental 8 huge pages were restricted to node 2 by the specified mempolicy. Similarly, we can use mempolicy to free persistent huge pages from specified nodes: numactl -m 0,1 sysctl vm.nr_hugepages_mempolicy=32 yields: Node 0 HugePages_Total: 4 Node 1 HugePages_Total: 4 Node 2 HugePages_Total: 16 Node 3 HugePages_Total: 8 The 8 huge pages freed were balanced over nodes 0 and 1.

cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when changing cpuset's mems Before applying this patch, cpuset updates task->mems_allowed and mempolicy by setting all new bits in the nodemask first, and clearing all old unallowed bits later. But in the way, the allocator may find that there is no node to alloc memory. The reason is that cpuset rebinds the task's mempolicy, it cleans the nodes which the allocater can alloc pages on, for example: (mpol: mempolicy) task1 task1's mpol task2 alloc page 1 alloc on node0? NO 1 1 change mems from 1 to 0 1 rebind task1's mpol 0-1 set new bits 0 clear disallowed bits alloc on node1? NO 0 ... can't alloc page goto oom This patch fixes this problem by expanding the nodes range first(set newly allowed bits) and shrink it lazily(clear newly disallowed bits). So we use a variable to tell the write-side task that read-side task is reading nodemask, and the write-side task clears newly disallowed nodes after read-side task ends the current memory allocation.

mm: have zonelist contains structs with both a zone pointer and zone_idx Filtering zonelists requires very frequent use of zone_idx(). This is costly as it involves a lookup of another structure and a substraction operation. As the zone_idx is often required, it should be quickly accessible. The node idx could also be stored here if it was found that accessing zone->node is significant which may be the case on workloads where nodemasks are heavily used. This patch introduces a struct zoneref to store a zone pointer and a zone index. The zonelist then consists of an array of these struct zonerefs which are looked up as necessary. Helpers are given for accessing the zone index as well as the node index.

cpuset: mm: reduce large amounts of memory barrier related damage v3 Commit c0ff7453bb5c ("cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when changing cpuset's mems") wins a super prize for the largest number of memory barriers entered into fast paths for one commit. [get|put]_mems_allowed is incredibly heavy with pairs of full memory barriers inserted into a number of hot paths. This was detected while investigating at large page allocator slowdown introduced some time after 2.6.32. The largest portion of this overhead was shown by oprofile to be at an mfence introduced by this commit into the page allocator hot path. For extra style points, the commit introduced the use of yield() in an implementation of what looks like a spinning mutex. This patch replaces the full memory barriers on both read and write sides with a sequence counter with just read barriers on the fast path side. This is much cheaper on some architectures, including x86. The main bulk of the patch is the retry logic if the nodemask changes in a manner that can cause a false failure. While updating the nodemask, a check is made to see if a false failure is a risk.

cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when changing cpuset's mems Before applying this patch, cpuset updates task->mems_allowed and mempolicy by setting all new bits in the nodemask first, and clearing all old unallowed bits later. But in the way, the allocator may find that there is no node to alloc memory. The reason is that cpuset rebinds the task's mempolicy, it cleans the nodes which the allocater can alloc pages on, for example: (mpol: mempolicy) task1 task1's mpol task2 alloc page 1 alloc on node0? NO 1 1 change mems from 1 to 0 1 rebind task1's mpol 0-1 set new bits 0 clear disallowed bits alloc on node1? NO 0 ... can't alloc page goto oom This patch fixes this problem by expanding the nodes range first(set newly allowed bits) and shrink it lazily(clear newly disallowed bits). So we use a variable to tell the write-side task that read-side task is reading nodemask, and the write-side task clears newly disallowed nodes after read-side task ends the current memory allocation.

[get|put]_mems_allowed is incredibly heavy with pairs of full memory barriers inserted into a number of hot paths. This was detected while investigating at large page allocator slowdown introduced some time after 2.6.32. The largest portion of this overhead was shown by oprofile to be at an mfence introduced by this commit into the page allocator hot path. For extra style points, the commit introduced the use of yield() in an implementation of what looks like a spinning mutex. This patch replaces the full memory barriers on both read and write sides with a sequence counter with just read barriers on the fast path side. This is much cheaper on some architectures, including x86. The main bulk of the patch is the retry logic if the nodemask changes in a manner that can cause a false failure. While updating the nodemask, a check is made to see if a false failure is a risk.

mempolicy: rework mempolicy Reference Counting [yet again] After further discussion with Christoph Lameter, it has become clear that my earlier attempts to clean up the mempolicy reference counting were a bit of overkill in some areas, resulting in superflous ref/unref in what are usually fast paths. In other areas, further inspection reveals that I botched the unref for interleave policies. A separate patch, suitable for upstream/stable trees, fixes up the known errors in the previous attempt to fix reference counting. This patch reworks the memory policy referencing counting and, one hopes, simplifies the code. Maybe I'll get it right this time. See the update to the numa_memory_policy.txt document for a discussion of memory policy reference counting that motivates this patch. Summary: Lookup of mempolicy, based on (vma, address) need only add a reference for shared policy, and we need only unref the policy when finished for shared policies. So, this patch backs out all of the unneeded extra reference counting added by my previous attempt. It then unrefs only shared policies when we're finished with them, using the mpol_cond_put() [conditional put] helper function introduced by this patch. Note that shmem_swapin() calls read_swap_cache_async() with a dummy vma containing just the policy. read_swap_cache_async() can call alloc_page_vma() multiple times, so we can't let alloc_page_vma() unref the shared policy in this case. To avoid this, we make a copy of any non-null shared policy and remove the MPOL_F_SHARED flag from the copy. This copy occurs before reading a page [or multiple pages] from swap, so the overhead should not be an issue here. I introduced a new static inline function "mpol_cond_copy()" to copy the shared policy to an on-stack policy and remove the flags that would require a conditional free. The current implementation of mpol_cond_copy() assumes that the struct mempolicy contains no pointers to dynamically allocated structures that must be duplicated or reference counted during copy.

This was detected while investigating at large page allocator slowdown introduced some time after 2.6.32. The largest portion of this overhead was shown by oprofile to be at an mfence introduced by this commit into the page allocator hot path. For extra style points, the commit introduced the use of yield() in an implementation of what looks like a spinning mutex. This patch replaces the full memory barriers on both read and write sides with a sequence counter with just read barriers on the fast path side. This is much cheaper on some architectures, including x86. The main bulk of the patch is the retry logic if the nodemask changes in a manner that can cause a false failure. While updating the nodemask, a check is made to see if a false failure is a risk. If it is, the sequence number gets bumped and parallel allocators will briefly stall while the nodemask update takes place. In a page fault test microbenchmark, oprofile samples from __alloc_pages_nodemask went from 4.53% of all samples to 1.15%.

mempolicy: rework mempolicy Reference Counting [yet again] After further discussion with Christoph Lameter, it has become clear that my earlier attempts to clean up the mempolicy reference counting were a bit of overkill in some areas, resulting in superflous ref/unref in what are usually fast paths. In other areas, further inspection reveals that I botched the unref for interleave policies. A separate patch, suitable for upstream/stable trees, fixes up the known errors in the previous attempt to fix reference counting. This patch reworks the memory policy referencing counting and, one hopes, simplifies the code. Maybe I'll get it right this time. See the update to the numa_memory_policy.txt document for a discussion of memory policy reference counting that motivates this patch. Summary: Lookup of mempolicy, based on (vma, address) need only add a reference for shared policy, and we need only unref the policy when finished for shared policies. So, this patch backs out all of the unneeded extra reference counting added by my previous attempt. It then unrefs only shared policies when we're finished with them, using the mpol_cond_put() [conditional put] helper function introduced by this patch. Note that shmem_swapin() calls read_swap_cache_async() with a dummy vma containing just the policy. read_swap_cache_async() can call alloc_page_vma() multiple times, so we can't let alloc_page_vma() unref the shared policy in this case. To avoid this, we make a copy of any non-null shared policy and remove the MPOL_F_SHARED flag from the copy. This copy occurs before reading a page [or multiple pages] from swap, so the overhead should not be an issue here. I introduced a new static inline function "mpol_cond_copy()" to copy the shared policy to an on-stack policy and remove the flags that would require a conditional free. The current implementation of mpol_cond_copy() assumes that the struct mempolicy contains no pointers to dynamically allocated structures that must be duplicated or reference counted during copy.

cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when changing cpuset's mems Before applying this patch, cpuset updates task->mems_allowed and mempolicy by setting all new bits in the nodemask first, and clearing all old unallowed bits later. But in the way, the allocator may find that there is no node to alloc memory. The reason is that cpuset rebinds the task's mempolicy, it cleans the nodes which the allocater can alloc pages on, for example: (mpol: mempolicy) task1 task1's mpol task2 alloc page 1 alloc on node0? NO 1 1 change mems from 1 to 0 1 rebind task1's mpol 0-1 set new bits 0 clear disallowed bits alloc on node1? NO 0 ... can't alloc page goto oom This patch fixes this problem by expanding the nodes range first(set newly allowed bits) and shrink it lazily(clear newly disallowed bits). So we use a variable to tell the write-side task that read-side task is reading nodemask, and the write-side task clears newly disallowed nodes after read-side task ends the current memory allocation.

[PATCH] cpuset: rebind vma mempolicies fix Fix more of longstanding bug in cpuset/mempolicy interaction. NUMA mempolicies (mm/mempolicy.c) are constrained by the current tasks cpuset to just the Memory Nodes allowed by that cpuset. The kernel maintains internal state for each mempolicy, tracking what nodes are used for the MPOL_INTERLEAVE, MPOL_BIND or MPOL_PREFERRED policies. When a tasks cpuset memory placement changes, whether because the cpuset changed, or because the task was attached to a different cpuset, then the tasks mempolicies have to be rebound to the new cpuset placement, so as to preserve the cpuset-relative numbering of the nodes in that policy. An earlier fix handled such mempolicy rebinding for mempolicies attached to a task. This fix rebinds mempolicies attached to vma's (address ranges in a tasks address space.) Due to the need to hold the task->mm->mmap_sem semaphore while updating vma's, the rebinding of vma mempolicies has to be done when the cpuset memory placement is changed, at which time mmap_sem can be safely acquired. The tasks mempolicy is rebound later, when the task next attempts to allocate memory and notices that its task->cpuset_mems_generation is out-of-date with its cpusets mems_generation. Because walking the tasklist to find all tasks attached to a changing cpuset requires holding tasklist_lock, a spinlock, one cannot update the vma's of the affected tasks while doing the tasklist scan. In general, one cannot acquire a semaphore (which can sleep) while already holding a spinlock (such as tasklist_lock). So a list of mm references has to be built up during the tasklist scan, then the tasklist lock dropped, then for each mm, its mmap_sem acquired, and the vma's in that mm rebound. Once the tasklist lock is dropped, affected tasks may fork new tasks, before their mm's are rebound. A kernel global 'cpuset_being_rebound' is set to point to the cpuset being rebound (there can only be one; cpuset modifications are done under a global 'manage_sem' semaphore), and the mpol_copy code that is used to copy a tasks mempolicies during fork catches such forking tasks, and ensures their children are also rebound. When a task is moved to a different cpuset, it is easier, as there is only one task involved. It's mm->vma's are scanned, using the same mpol_rebind_policy() as used above. It may happen that both the mpol_copy hook and the update done via the tasklist scan update the same mm twice. This is ok, as the mempolicies of each vma in an mm keep track of what mems_allowed they are relative to, and safely no-op a second request to rebind to the same nodes.

mempolicy: restructure rebinding-mempolicy functions Nick Piggin reported that the allocator may see an empty nodemask when changing cpuset's mems[1]. It happens only on the kernel that do not do atomic nodemask_t stores. (MAX_NUMNODES > BITS_PER_LONG) But I found that there is also a problem on the kernel that can do atomic nodemask_t stores. The problem is that the allocator can't find a node to alloc page when changing cpuset's mems though there is a lot of free memory.

This patchset fixes this problem by expanding the nodes range first(set newly allowed bits) and shrink it lazily(clear newly disallowed bits). So we use a variable to tell the write-side task that read-side task is reading nodemask, and the write-side task clears newly disallowed nodes after read-side task ends the current memory allocation. This patch: In order to fix no node to alloc memory, when we want to update mempolicy and mems_allowed, we expand the set of nodes first (set all the newly nodes) and shrink the set of nodes lazily(clean disallowed nodes), But the mempolicy's rebind functions may breaks the expanding. So we restructure the mempolicy's rebind functions and split the rebind work to two steps, just like the update of cpuset's mems: The 1st step: expand the set of the mempolicy's nodes. The 2nd step: shrink the set of the mempolicy's nodes. It is used when there is no real lock to protect the mempolicy in the read-side. Otherwise we can do rebind work at once. In order to implement it, we define enum mpol_rebind_step { MPOL_REBIND_ONCE, MPOL_REBIND_STEP1, MPOL_REBIND_STEP2, MPOL_REBIND_NSTEP, }; If the mempolicy needn't be updated by two steps, we can pass MPOL_REBIND_ONCE to the rebind functions. Or we can pass MPOL_REBIND_STEP1 to do the first step of the rebind work and pass MPOL_REBIND_STEP2 to do the second step work. Besides that, it maybe long time between these two step and we have to release the lock that protects mempolicy and mems_allowed. If we hold the lock once again, we must check whether the current mempolicy is under the rebinding (the first step has been done) or not, because the task may alloc a new mempolicy when we don't hold the lock. So we defined the following flag to identify it: #define MPOL_F_REBINDING (1 << 2) The new functions will be used in the next patch.

[PATCH] cpuset: rebind vma mempolicies fix Fix more of longstanding bug in cpuset/mempolicy interaction. NUMA mempolicies (mm/mempolicy.c) are constrained by the current tasks cpuset to just the Memory Nodes allowed by that cpuset. The kernel maintains internal state for each mempolicy, tracking what nodes are used for the MPOL_INTERLEAVE, MPOL_BIND or MPOL_PREFERRED policies. When a tasks cpuset memory placement changes, whether because the cpuset changed, or because the task was attached to a different cpuset, then the tasks mempolicies have to be rebound to the new cpuset placement, so as to preserve the cpuset-relative numbering of the nodes in that policy. An earlier fix handled such mempolicy rebinding for mempolicies attached to a task. This fix rebinds mempolicies attached to vma's (address ranges in a tasks address space.) Due to the need to hold the task->mm->mmap_sem semaphore while updating vma's, the rebinding of vma mempolicies has to be done when the cpuset memory placement is changed, at which time mmap_sem can be safely acquired. The tasks mempolicy is rebound later, when the task next attempts to allocate memory and notices that its task->cpuset_mems_generation is out-of-date with its cpusets mems_generation. Because walking the tasklist to find all tasks attached to a changing cpuset requires holding tasklist_lock, a spinlock, one cannot update the vma's of the affected tasks while doing the tasklist scan. In general, one cannot acquire a semaphore (which can sleep) while already holding a spinlock (such as tasklist_lock). So a list of mm references has to be built up during the tasklist scan, then the tasklist lock dropped, then for each mm, its mmap_sem acquired, and the vma's in that mm rebound. Once the tasklist lock is dropped, affected tasks may fork new tasks, before their mm's are rebound. A kernel global 'cpuset_being_rebound' is set to point to the cpuset being rebound (there can only be one; cpuset modifications are done under a global 'manage_sem' semaphore), and the mpol_copy code that is used to copy a tasks mempolicies during fork catches such forking tasks, and ensures their children are also rebound. When a task is moved to a different cpuset, it is easier, as there is only one task involved. It's mm->vma's are scanned, using the same mpol_rebind_policy() as used above. It may happen that both the mpol_copy hook and the update done via the tasklist scan update the same mm twice. This is ok, as the mempolicies of each vma in an mm keep track of what mems_allowed they are relative to, and safely no-op a second request to rebind to the same nodes.

This increases the memory footprint but is not expected to be a major problem as mbind() is unlikely to be used for fine-grained ranges. It is also inefficient because it means we allocate a new policy even in cases where mbind_range() could use the new_policy passed to it.

mempolicy: use struct mempolicy pointer in shmem_sb_info This patch replaces the mempolicy mode, mode_flags, and nodemask in the shmem_sb_info struct with a struct mempolicy pointer, initialized to NULL. This removes dependency on the details of mempolicy from shmem.c and hugetlbfs inode.c and simplifies the interfaces. mpol_parse_str() in mempolicy.c is changed to return, via a pointer to a pointer arg, a struct mempolicy pointer on success. For MPOL_DEFAULT, the returned pointer is NULL. Further, mpol_parse_str() now takes a 'no_context' argument that causes the input nodemask to be stored in the w.user_nodemask of the created mempolicy for use when the mempolicy is installed in a tmpfs inode shared policy tree. At that time, any cpuset contextualization is applied to the original input nodemask. This preserves the previous behavior where the input nodemask was stored in the superblock. We can think of the returned mempolicy as "context free". Because mpol_parse_str() is now calling mpol_new(), we can remove from mpol_to_str() the semantic checks that mpol_new() already performs. Add 'no_context' parameter to mpol_to_str() to specify that it should format the nodemask in w.user_nodemask for 'bind' and 'interleave' policies. Change mpol_shared_policy_init() to take a pointer to a "context free" struct mempolicy and to create a new, "contextualized" mempolicy using the mode, mode_flags and user_nodemask from the input mempolicy. Note: we know that the mempolicy passed to mpol_to_str() or mpol_shared_policy_init() from a tmpfs superblock is "context free". This is currently the only instance thereof. However, if we found more uses for this concept, and introduced any ambiguity as to whether a mempolicy was context free or not, we could add another internal mode flag to identify context free mempolicies. Then, we could remove the 'no_context' argument from mpol_to_str(). Added shmem_get_sbmpol() to return a reference counted superblock mempolicy, if one exists, to pass to mpol_shared_policy_init(). We must add the reference under the sb stat_lock to prevent races with replacement of the mpol by remount. This reference is removed in mpol_shared_policy_init().

mm: make set_mempolicy(MPOL_INTERLEAV) N_HIGH_MEMORY aware At first, init_task's mems_allowed is initialized as this. init_task->mems_allowed == node_state[N_POSSIBLE] And cpuset's top_cpuset mask is initialized as this top_cpuset->mems_allowed = node_state[N_HIGH_MEMORY] Before 2.6.29: policy's mems_allowed is initialized as this. 1. update tasks->mems_allowed by its cpuset->mems_allowed. 2. policy->mems_allowed = nodes_and(tasks->mems_allowed, user's mask) Updating task's mems_allowed in reference to top_cpuset's one. cpuset's mems_allowed is aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY, always. In 2.6.30: After commit 58568d2a8215cb6f55caf2332017d7bdff954e1c ("cpuset,mm: update tasks' mems_allowed in time"), policy's mems_allowed is initialized as this. 1. policy->mems_allowd = nodes_and(task->mems_allowed, user's mask) Here, if task is in top_cpuset, task->mems_allowed is not updated from init's one. Assume user excutes command as #numactrl --interleave=all ,.... policy->mems_allowd = nodes_and(N_POSSIBLE, ALL_SET_MASK) Then, policy's mems_allowd can includes a possible node, which has no pgdat. MPOL's INTERLEAVE just scans nodemask of task->mems_allowd and access this directly. NODE_DATA(nid)->zonelist even if NODE_DATA(nid)==NULL Then, what's we need is making policy->mems_allowed be aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY. This patch does that. But to do so, extra nodemask will be on statck. Because I know cpumask has a new interface of CPUMASK_ALLOC(), I added it to node. This patch stands on old behavior. But I feel this fix itself is just a Band-Aid. But to do fundametal fix, we have to take care of memory hotplug and it takes time. (task->mems_allowd should be N_HIGH_MEMORY, I think.) mpol_set_nodemask() should be aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY and policy's nodemask should be includes only online nodes. In old behavior, this is guaranteed by frequent reference to cpuset's code. Now, most of them are removed and mempolicy has to check it by itself. To do check, a few nodemask_t will be used for calculating nodemask. But, size of nodemask_t can be big and it's not good to allocate them on stack. Now, cpumask_t has CPUMASK_ALLOC/FREE an easy code for get scratch area. NODEMASK_ALLOC/FREE shoudl be there.

cpuset,mm: update tasks' mems_allowed in time Fix allocating page cache/slab object on the unallowed node when memory spread is set by updating tasks' mems_allowed after its cpuset's mems is changed. In order to update tasks' mems_allowed in time, we must modify the code of memory policy. Because the memory policy is applied in the process's context originally. After applying this patch, one task directly manipulates anothers mems_allowed, and we use alloc_lock in the task_struct to protect mems_allowed and memory policy of the task. But in the fast path, we didn't use lock to protect them, because adding a lock may lead to performance regression. But if we don't add a lock,the task might see no nodes when changing cpuset's mems_allowed to some non-overlapping set. In order to avoid it, we set all new allowed nodes, then clear newly disallowed ones. [lee.schermerhorn@hp.com: The rework of mpol_new() to extract the adjusting of the node mask to apply cpuset and mpol flags "context" breaks set_mempolicy() and mbind() with MPOL_PREFERRED and a NULL nodemask--i.e., explicit local allocation. Fix this by adding the check for MPOL_PREFERRED and empty node mask to mpol_new_mpolicy(). Remove the now unneeded 'nodes = NULL' from mpol_new(). Note that mpol_new_mempolicy() is always called with a non-NULL 'nodes' parameter now that it has been removed from mpol_new(). Therefore, we don't need to test nodes for NULL before testing it for 'empty'. However, just to be extra paranoid, add a VM_BUG_ON() to verify this assumption.] [lee.schermerhorn@hp.com: I don't think the function name 'mpol_new_mempolicy' is descriptive enough to differentiate it from mpol_new(). This function applies cpuset set context, usually constraining nodes to those allowed by the cpuset. However, when the 'RELATIVE_NODES flag is set, it also translates the nodes. So I settled on 'mpol_set_nodemask()', because the comment block for mpol_new() mentions that we need to call this function to "set nodes".

mempolicy: use struct mempolicy pointer in shmem_sb_info This patch replaces the mempolicy mode, mode_flags, and nodemask in the shmem_sb_info struct with a struct mempolicy pointer, initialized to NULL. This removes dependency on the details of mempolicy from shmem.c and hugetlbfs inode.c and simplifies the interfaces. mpol_parse_str() in mempolicy.c is changed to return, via a pointer to a pointer arg, a struct mempolicy pointer on success. For MPOL_DEFAULT, the returned pointer is NULL. Further, mpol_parse_str() now takes a 'no_context' argument that causes the input nodemask to be stored in the w.user_nodemask of the created mempolicy for use when the mempolicy is installed in a tmpfs inode shared policy tree. At that time, any cpuset contextualization is applied to the original input nodemask. This preserves the previous behavior where the input nodemask was stored in the superblock. We can think of the returned mempolicy as "context free". Because mpol_parse_str() is now calling mpol_new(), we can remove from mpol_to_str() the semantic checks that mpol_new() already performs. Add 'no_context' parameter to mpol_to_str() to specify that it should format the nodemask in w.user_nodemask for 'bind' and 'interleave' policies.

In order to update tasks' mems_allowed in time, we must modify the code of memory policy. Because the memory policy is applied in the process's context originally. After applying this patch, one task directly manipulates anothers mems_allowed, and we use alloc_lock in the task_struct to protect mems_allowed and memory policy of the task. But in the fast path, we didn't use lock to protect them, because adding a lock may lead to performance regression. But if we don't add a lock,the task might see no nodes when changing cpuset's mems_allowed to some non-overlapping set. In order to avoid it, we set all new allowed nodes, then clear newly disallowed ones.

Fix this by adding the check for MPOL_PREFERRED and empty node mask to mpol_new_mpolicy(). Remove the now unneeded 'nodes = NULL' from mpol_new(). Note that mpol_new_mempolicy() is always called with a non-NULL 'nodes' parameter now that it has been removed from mpol_new().

mempolicy: use struct mempolicy pointer in shmem_sb_info This patch replaces the mempolicy mode, mode_flags, and nodemask in the shmem_sb_info struct with a struct mempolicy pointer, initialized to NULL. This removes dependency on the details of mempolicy from shmem.c and hugetlbfs inode.c and simplifies the interfaces. mpol_parse_str() in mempolicy.c is changed to return, via a pointer to a pointer arg, a struct mempolicy pointer on success. For MPOL_DEFAULT, the returned pointer is NULL. Further, mpol_parse_str() now takes a 'no_context' argument that causes the input nodemask to be stored in the w.user_nodemask of the created mempolicy for use when the mempolicy is installed in a tmpfs inode shared policy tree. At that time, any cpuset contextualization is applied to the original input nodemask. This preserves the previous behavior where the input nodemask was stored in the superblock. We can think of the returned mempolicy as "context free". Because mpol_parse_str() is now calling mpol_new(), we can remove from mpol_to_str() the semantic checks that mpol_new() already performs. Add 'no_context' parameter to mpol_to_str() to specify that it should format the nodemask in w.user_nodemask for 'bind' and 'interleave' policies. Change mpol_shared_policy_init() to take a pointer to a "context free" struct mempolicy and to create a new, "contextualized" mempolicy using the mode, mode_flags and user_nodemask from the input mempolicy. Note: we know that the mempolicy passed to mpol_to_str() or mpol_shared_policy_init() from a tmpfs superblock is "context free". This is currently the only instance thereof. However, if we found more uses for this concept, and introduced any ambiguity as to whether a mempolicy was context free or not, we could add another internal mode flag to identify context free mempolicies. Then, we could remove the 'no_context' argument from mpol_to_str(). Added shmem_get_sbmpol() to return a reference counted superblock mempolicy, if one exists, to pass to mpol_shared_policy_init(). We must add the reference under the sb stat_lock to prevent races with replacement of the mpol by remount. This reference is removed in mpol_shared_policy_init().

mm: make set_mempolicy(MPOL_INTERLEAV) N_HIGH_MEMORY aware At first, init_task's mems_allowed is initialized as this. init_task->mems_allowed == node_state[N_POSSIBLE] And cpuset's top_cpuset mask is initialized as this top_cpuset->mems_allowed = node_state[N_HIGH_MEMORY] Before 2.6.29: policy's mems_allowed is initialized as this. 1. update tasks->mems_allowed by its cpuset->mems_allowed. 2. policy->mems_allowed = nodes_and(tasks->mems_allowed, user's mask) Updating task's mems_allowed in reference to top_cpuset's one. cpuset's mems_allowed is aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY, always. In 2.6.30: After commit 58568d2a8215cb6f55caf2332017d7bdff954e1c ("cpuset,mm: update tasks' mems_allowed in time"), policy's mems_allowed is initialized as this. 1. policy->mems_allowd = nodes_and(task->mems_allowed, user's mask) Here, if task is in top_cpuset, task->mems_allowed is not updated from init's one. Assume user excutes command as #numactrl --interleave=all ,.... policy->mems_allowd = nodes_and(N_POSSIBLE, ALL_SET_MASK) Then, policy's mems_allowd can includes a possible node, which has no pgdat. MPOL's INTERLEAVE just scans nodemask of task->mems_allowd and access this directly. NODE_DATA(nid)->zonelist even if NODE_DATA(nid)==NULL Then, what's we need is making policy->mems_allowed be aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY. This patch does that. But to do so, extra nodemask will be on statck. Because I know cpumask has a new interface of CPUMASK_ALLOC(), I added it to node. This patch stands on old behavior. But I feel this fix itself is just a Band-Aid. But to do fundametal fix, we have to take care of memory hotplug and it takes time. (task->mems_allowd should be N_HIGH_MEMORY, I think.) mpol_set_nodemask() should be aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY and policy's nodemask should be includes only online nodes. In old behavior, this is guaranteed by frequent reference to cpuset's code. Now, most of them are removed and mempolicy has to check it by itself. To do check, a few nodemask_t will be used for calculating nodemask. But, size of nodemask_t can be big and it's not good to allocate them on stack. Now, cpumask_t has CPUMASK_ALLOC/FREE an easy code for get scratch area. NODEMASK_ALLOC/FREE shoudl be there.

mempolicy: support optional mode flags With the evolution of mempolicies, it is necessary to support mempolicy mode flags that specify how the policy shall behave in certain circumstances. The most immediate need for mode flag support is to suppress remapping the nodemask of a policy at the time of rebind.

A new constant, MPOL_MODE_FLAGS, represents the union of legal optional flags that may be passed as part of this int. Mempolicies that include illegal flags as part of their policy are rejected as invalid. An additional member to struct mempolicy is added to support the mode flags: struct mempolicy { ... unsigned short policy; unsigned short flags; } The splitting of the 'int' actual passed by the user is done in sys_set_mempolicy() and sys_mbind() for their respective syscalls. This is done by intersecting the actual with MPOL_MODE_FLAGS, rejecting the syscall of there are additional flags, and storing it in the new 'flags' member of struct mempolicy. The intersection of the actual with ~MPOL_MODE_FLAGS is stored in the 'policy' member of the struct and all current users of pol->policy remain unchanged. The union of the policy mode and optional mode flags is passed back to the user in get_mempolicy(). This combination of mode and flags within the same actual does not break userspace code that relies on get_mempolicy(&policy, ...) and either switch (policy) { case MPOL_BIND: ... case MPOL_INTERLEAVE: ... }; statements or if (policy == MPOL_INTERLEAVE) { ... } statements. Such applications would need to use optional mode flags when calling set_mempolicy() or mbind() for these previously implemented statements to stop working. If an application does start using optional mode flags, it will need to mask the optional flags off the policy in switch and conditional statements that only test mode. An additional member is also added to struct shmem_sb_info to store the optional mode flags.

[PATCH] cpusets: automatic numa mempolicy rebinding This patch automatically updates a tasks NUMA mempolicy when its cpuset memory placement changes. It does so within the context of the task, without any need to support low level external mempolicy manipulation. If a system is not using cpusets, or if running on a system with just the root (all-encompassing) cpuset, then this remap is a no-op. Only when a task is moved between cpusets, or a cpusets memory placement is changed does the following apply. Otherwise, the main routine below, rebind_policy() is not even called. When mixing cpusets, scheduler affinity, and NUMA mempolicies, the essential role of cpusets is to place jobs (several related tasks) on a set of CPUs and Memory Nodes, the essential role of sched_setaffinity is to manage a jobs processor placement within its allowed cpuset, and the essential role of NUMA mempolicy (mbind, set_mempolicy) is to manage a jobs memory placement within its allowed cpuset. However, CPU affinity and NUMA memory placement are managed within the kernel using absolute system wide numbering, not cpuset relative numbering. This is ok until a job is migrated to a different cpuset, or what's the same, a jobs cpuset is moved to different CPUs and Memory Nodes. Then the CPU affinity and NUMA memory placement of the tasks in the job need to be updated, to preserve their cpuset-relative position. This can be done for CPU affinity using sched_setaffinity() from user code, as one task can modify anothers CPU affinity. This cannot be done from an external task for NUMA memory placement, as that can only be modified in the context of the task using it. However, it easy enough to remap a tasks NUMA mempolicy automatically when a task is migrated, using the existing cpuset mechanism to trigger a refresh of a tasks memory placement after its cpuset has changed. All that is needed is the old and new nodemask, and notice to the task that it needs to rebind its mempolicy. The tasks mems_allowed has the old mask, the tasks cpuset has the new mask, and the existing cpuset_update_current_mems_allowed() mechanism provides the notice. The bitmap/cpumask/nodemask remap operators provide the cpuset relative calculations. This patch leaves open a couple of issues: 1) Updating vma and shmfs/tmpfs/hugetlbfs memory policies: These mempolicies may reference nodes outside of those allowed to the current task by its cpuset. Tasks are migrated as part of jobs, which reside on what might be several cpusets in a subtree. When such a job is migrated, all NUMA memory policy references to nodes within that cpuset subtree should be translated, and references to any nodes outside that subtree should be left untouched. A future patch will provide the cpuset mechanism needed to mark such subtrees. With that patch, we will be able to correctly migrate these other memory policies across a job migration. 2) Updating cpuset, affinity and memory policies in user space: This is harder. Any placement state stored in user space using system-wide numbering will be invalidated across a migration. More work will be required to provide user code with a migration-safe means to manage its cpuset relative placement, while preserving the current API's that pass system wide numbers, not cpuset relative numbers across the kernel-user boundary.

mempolicy: rework shmem mpol parsing and display mm/shmem.c currently contains functions to parse and display memory policy strings for the tmpfs 'mpol' mount option. Move this to mm/mempolicy.c with the rest of the mempolicy support. With subsequent patches, we'll be able to remove knowledge of the details [mode, flags, policy, ...] completely from shmem.c 1) replace shmem_parse_mpol() in mm/shmem.c with mpol_parse_str() in mm/mempolicy.c. Rework to use the policy_types[] array [used by mpol_to_str()] to look up mode by name. 2) use mpol_to_str() to format policy for shmem_show_mpol(). mpol_to_str() expects a pointer to a struct mempolicy, so temporarily construct one. This will be replaced with a reference to a struct mempolicy in the tmpfs superblock in a subsequent patch. NOTE 1: I changed mpol_to_str() to use a colon ':' rather than an equal sign '=' as the nodemask delimiter to match mpol_parse_str() and the tmpfs/shmem mpol mount option formatting that now uses mpol_to_str(). This is a user visible change to numa_maps, but then the addition of the mode flags already changed the display. It makes sense to me to have the mounts and numa_maps display the policy in the same format. However, if anyone objects strongly, I can pass the desired nodemask delimeter as an arg to mpol_to_str(). Note 2: Like show_numa_map(), I don't check the return code from mpol_to_str(). I do use a longer buffer than the one provided by show_numa_map(), which seems to have sufficed so far.

Recent NUMA enhancements are not to blame: this dates back to 2.6.35, when commit e17f74af351c "mempolicy: don't call mpol_set_nodemask() when no_context" skipped mpol_parse_str()'s call to mpol_set_nodemask(), which used to initialize v.preferred_node, or set MPOL_F_LOCAL in flags.

Set v.nodes or v.preferred_node or MPOL_F_LOCAL as mpol_to_str() might expect.

I don't understand why MPOL_LOCAL is described as a pseudo-policy: it's a reasonable policy which suffers from a confusing implementation in terms of MPOL_PREFERRED with MPOL_F_LOCAL. I believe this would be much more robust if MPOL_LOCAL were recognized in switch statements throughout, MPOL_F_LOCAL deleted, and MPOL_PREFERRED use the (possibly empty) nodes mask like everyone else, instead of its preferred_node variant (I presume an optimization from the days before MPOL_LOCAL).

* @str: string containing mempolicy to parse
mempolicy: use struct mempolicy pointer in shmem_sb_info This patch replaces the mempolicy mode, mode_flags, and nodemask in the shmem_sb_info struct with a struct mempolicy pointer, initialized to NULL. This removes dependency on the details of mempolicy from shmem.c and hugetlbfs inode.c and simplifies the interfaces. mpol_parse_str() in mempolicy.c is changed to return, via a pointer to a pointer arg, a struct mempolicy pointer on success. For MPOL_DEFAULT, the returned pointer is NULL. Further, mpol_parse_str() now takes a 'no_context' argument that causes the input nodemask to be stored in the w.user_nodemask of the created mempolicy for use when the mempolicy is installed in a tmpfs inode shared policy tree. At that time, any cpuset contextualization is applied to the original input nodemask. This preserves the previous behavior where the input nodemask was stored in the superblock. We can think of the returned mempolicy as "context free". Because mpol_parse_str() is now calling mpol_new(), we can remove from mpol_to_str() the semantic checks that mpol_new() already performs. Add 'no_context' parameter to mpol_to_str() to specify that it should format the nodemask in w.user_nodemask for 'bind' and 'interleave' policies. Change mpol_shared_policy_init() to take a pointer to a "context free" struct mempolicy and to create a new, "contextualized" mempolicy using the mode, mode_flags and user_nodemask from the input mempolicy. Note: we know that the mempolicy passed to mpol_to_str() or mpol_shared_policy_init() from a tmpfs superblock is "context free". This is currently the only instance thereof. However, if we found more uses for this concept, and introduced any ambiguity as to whether a mempolicy was context free or not, we could add another internal mode flag to identify context free mempolicies. Then, we could remove the 'no_context' argument from mpol_to_str(). Added shmem_get_sbmpol() to return a reference counted superblock mempolicy, if one exists, to pass to mpol_shared_policy_init(). We must add the reference under the sb stat_lock to prevent races with replacement of the mpol by remount. This reference is removed in mpol_shared_policy_init().

tmpfs mempolicy: fix /proc/mounts corrupting memory Recently I suggested using "mount -o remount,mpol=local /tmp" in NUMA mempolicy testing. Very nasty.

"mpol=prefer" and "mpol=prefer:Node" are equally toxic. Recent NUMA enhancements are not to blame: this dates back to 2.6.35, when commit e17f74af351c "mempolicy: don't call mpol_set_nodemask() when no_context" skipped mpol_parse_str()'s call to mpol_set_nodemask(), which used to initialize v.preferred_node, or set MPOL_F_LOCAL in flags.

Then mpol_to_str() can ignore its no_context argument also, the mpol being appropriately initialized whether contextualized or not. Rename its no_context unused too, and let subsequent patch remove them (that's not needed for stable backporting, which would involve rejects). I don't understand why MPOL_LOCAL is described as a pseudo-policy: it's a reasonable policy which suffers from a confusing implementation in terms of MPOL_PREFERRED with MPOL_F_LOCAL. I believe this would be much more robust if MPOL_LOCAL were recognized in switch statements throughout, MPOL_F_LOCAL deleted, and MPOL_PREFERRED use the (possibly empty) nodes mask like everyone else, instead of its preferred_node variant (I presume an optimization from the days before MPOL_LOCAL). But that would take me too long to get right and fully tested. Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

mempolicy: use struct mempolicy pointer in shmem_sb_info This patch replaces the mempolicy mode, mode_flags, and nodemask in the shmem_sb_info struct with a struct mempolicy pointer, initialized to NULL. This removes dependency on the details of mempolicy from shmem.c and hugetlbfs inode.c and simplifies the interfaces. mpol_parse_str() in mempolicy.c is changed to return, via a pointer to a pointer arg, a struct mempolicy pointer on success. For MPOL_DEFAULT, the returned pointer is NULL. Further, mpol_parse_str() now takes a 'no_context' argument that causes the input nodemask to be stored in the w.user_nodemask of the created mempolicy for use when the mempolicy is installed in a tmpfs inode shared policy tree. At that time, any cpuset contextualization is applied to the original input nodemask. This preserves the previous behavior where the input nodemask was stored in the superblock. We can think of the returned mempolicy as "context free". Because mpol_parse_str() is now calling mpol_new(), we can remove from mpol_to_str() the semantic checks that mpol_new() already performs. Add 'no_context' parameter to mpol_to_str() to specify that it should format the nodemask in w.user_nodemask for 'bind' and 'interleave' policies. Change mpol_shared_policy_init() to take a pointer to a "context free" struct mempolicy and to create a new, "contextualized" mempolicy using the mode, mode_flags and user_nodemask from the input mempolicy. Note: we know that the mempolicy passed to mpol_to_str() or mpol_shared_policy_init() from a tmpfs superblock is "context free". This is currently the only instance thereof. However, if we found more uses for this concept, and introduced any ambiguity as to whether a mempolicy was context free or not, we could add another internal mode flag to identify context free mempolicies. Then, we could remove the 'no_context' argument from mpol_to_str(). Added shmem_get_sbmpol() to return a reference counted superblock mempolicy, if one exists, to pass to mpol_shared_policy_init(). We must add the reference under the sb stat_lock to prevent races with replacement of the mpol by remount. This reference is removed in mpol_shared_policy_init().

mempolicy: rework shmem mpol parsing and display mm/shmem.c currently contains functions to parse and display memory policy strings for the tmpfs 'mpol' mount option. Move this to mm/mempolicy.c with the rest of the mempolicy support. With subsequent patches, we'll be able to remove knowledge of the details [mode, flags, policy, ...] completely from shmem.c 1) replace shmem_parse_mpol() in mm/shmem.c with mpol_parse_str() in mm/mempolicy.c. Rework to use the policy_types[] array [used by mpol_to_str()] to look up mode by name. 2) use mpol_to_str() to format policy for shmem_show_mpol(). mpol_to_str() expects a pointer to a struct mempolicy, so temporarily construct one. This will be replaced with a reference to a struct mempolicy in the tmpfs superblock in a subsequent patch. NOTE 1: I changed mpol_to_str() to use a colon ':' rather than an equal sign '=' as the nodemask delimiter to match mpol_parse_str() and the tmpfs/shmem mpol mount option formatting that now uses mpol_to_str(). This is a user visible change to numa_maps, but then the addition of the mode flags already changed the display. It makes sense to me to have the mounts and numa_maps display the policy in the same format. However, if anyone objects strongly, I can pass the desired nodemask delimeter as an arg to mpol_to_str(). Note 2: Like show_numa_map(), I don't check the return code from mpol_to_str(). I do use a longer buffer than the one provided by show_numa_map(), which seems to have sufficed so far.

mempolicy: use struct mempolicy pointer in shmem_sb_info This patch replaces the mempolicy mode, mode_flags, and nodemask in the shmem_sb_info struct with a struct mempolicy pointer, initialized to NULL. This removes dependency on the details of mempolicy from shmem.c and hugetlbfs inode.c and simplifies the interfaces. mpol_parse_str() in mempolicy.c is changed to return, via a pointer to a pointer arg, a struct mempolicy pointer on success. For MPOL_DEFAULT, the returned pointer is NULL. Further, mpol_parse_str() now takes a 'no_context' argument that causes the input nodemask to be stored in the w.user_nodemask of the created mempolicy for use when the mempolicy is installed in a tmpfs inode shared policy tree. At that time, any cpuset contextualization is applied to the original input nodemask. This preserves the previous behavior where the input nodemask was stored in the superblock. We can think of the returned mempolicy as "context free". Because mpol_parse_str() is now calling mpol_new(), we can remove from mpol_to_str() the semantic checks that mpol_new() already performs. Add 'no_context' parameter to mpol_to_str() to specify that it should format the nodemask in w.user_nodemask for 'bind' and 'interleave' policies. Change mpol_shared_policy_init() to take a pointer to a "context free" struct mempolicy and to create a new, "contextualized" mempolicy using the mode, mode_flags and user_nodemask from the input mempolicy. Note: we know that the mempolicy passed to mpol_to_str() or mpol_shared_policy_init() from a tmpfs superblock is "context free". This is currently the only instance thereof. However, if we found more uses for this concept, and introduced any ambiguity as to whether a mempolicy was context free or not, we could add another internal mode flag to identify context free mempolicies.

For MPOL_DEFAULT, the returned pointer is NULL. Further, mpol_parse_str() now takes a 'no_context' argument that causes the input nodemask to be stored in the w.user_nodemask of the created mempolicy for use when the mempolicy is installed in a tmpfs inode shared policy tree. At that time, any cpuset contextualization is applied to the original input nodemask. This preserves the previous behavior where the input nodemask was stored in the superblock. We can think of the returned mempolicy as "context free". Because mpol_parse_str() is now calling mpol_new(), we can remove from mpol_to_str() the semantic checks that mpol_new() already performs. Add 'no_context' parameter to mpol_to_str() to specify that it should format the nodemask in w.user_nodemask for 'bind' and 'interleave' policies. Change mpol_shared_policy_init() to take a pointer to a "context free" struct mempolicy and to create a new, "contextualized" mempolicy using the mode, mode_flags and user_nodemask from the input mempolicy. Note: we know that the mempolicy passed to mpol_to_str() or mpol_shared_policy_init() from a tmpfs superblock is "context free". This is currently the only instance thereof. However, if we found more uses for this concept, and introduced any ambiguity as to whether a mempolicy was context free or not, we could add another internal mode flag to identify context free mempolicies. Then, we could remove the 'no_context' argument from mpol_to_str(). Added shmem_get_sbmpol() to return a reference counted superblock mempolicy, if one exists, to pass to mpol_shared_policy_init(). We must add the reference under the sb stat_lock to prevent races with replacement of the mpol by remount. This reference is removed in mpol_shared_policy_init().

mempolicy: rework shmem mpol parsing and display mm/shmem.c currently contains functions to parse and display memory policy strings for the tmpfs 'mpol' mount option. Move this to mm/mempolicy.c with the rest of the mempolicy support. With subsequent patches, we'll be able to remove knowledge of the details [mode, flags, policy, ...] completely from shmem.c 1) replace shmem_parse_mpol() in mm/shmem.c with mpol_parse_str() in mm/mempolicy.c. Rework to use the policy_types[] array [used by mpol_to_str()] to look up mode by name. 2) use mpol_to_str() to format policy for shmem_show_mpol(). mpol_to_str() expects a pointer to a struct mempolicy, so temporarily construct one. This will be replaced with a reference to a struct mempolicy in the tmpfs superblock in a subsequent patch. NOTE 1: I changed mpol_to_str() to use a colon ':' rather than an equal sign '=' as the nodemask delimiter to match mpol_parse_str() and the tmpfs/shmem mpol mount option formatting that now uses mpol_to_str(). This is a user visible change to numa_maps, but then the addition of the mode flags already changed the display. It makes sense to me to have the mounts and numa_maps display the policy in the same format. However, if anyone objects strongly, I can pass the desired nodemask delimeter as an arg to mpol_to_str(). Note 2: Like show_numa_map(), I don't check the return code from mpol_to_str(). I do use a longer buffer than the one provided by show_numa_map(), which seems to have sufficed so far.

tmpfs mempolicy: fix /proc/mounts corrupting memory Recently I suggested using "mount -o remount,mpol=local /tmp" in NUMA mempolicy testing. Very nasty. Reading /proc/mounts, /proc/pid/mounts or /proc/pid/mountinfo may then corrupt one bit of kernel memory, often in a page table (causing "Bad swap" or "Bad page map" warning or "Bad pagetable" oops), sometimes in a vm_area_struct or rbnode or somewhere worse. "mpol=prefer" and "mpol=prefer:Node" are equally toxic. Recent NUMA enhancements are not to blame: this dates back to 2.6.35, when commit e17f74af351c "mempolicy: don't call mpol_set_nodemask() when no_context" skipped mpol_parse_str()'s call to mpol_set_nodemask(), which used to initialize v.preferred_node, or set MPOL_F_LOCAL in flags. With slab poisoning, you can then rely on mpol_to_str() to set the bit for node 0x6b6b, probably in the next page above the caller's stack. mpol_parse_str() is only called from shmem_parse_options(): no_context is always true, so call it unused for now, and remove !no_context code. Set v.nodes or v.preferred_node or MPOL_F_LOCAL as mpol_to_str() might expect. Then mpol_to_str() can ignore its no_context argument also, the mpol being appropriately initialized whether contextualized or not. Rename its no_context unused too, and let subsequent patch remove them (that's not needed for stable backporting, which would involve rejects). I don't understand why MPOL_LOCAL is described as a pseudo-policy: it's a reasonable policy which suffers from a confusing implementation in terms of MPOL_PREFERRED with MPOL_F_LOCAL. I believe this would be much more robust if MPOL_LOCAL were recognized in switch statements throughout, MPOL_F_LOCAL deleted, and MPOL_PREFERRED use the (possibly empty) nodes mask like everyone else, instead of its preferred_node variant (I presume an optimization from the days before MPOL_LOCAL).

mempolicy: use MPOL_PREFERRED for system-wide default policy Currently, when one specifies MPOL_DEFAULT via a NUMA memory policy API [set_mempolicy(), mbind() and internal versions], the kernel simply installs a NULL struct mempolicy pointer in the appropriate context: task policy, vma policy, or shared policy. This causes any use of that policy to "fall back" to the next most specific policy scope. The only use of MPOL_DEFAULT to mean "local allocation" is in the system default policy. This requires extra checks/cases for MPOL_DEFAULT in many mempolicy.c functions. There is another, "preferred" way to specify local allocation via the APIs. That is using the MPOL_PREFERRED policy mode with an empty nodemask. Internally, the empty nodemask gets converted to a preferred_node id of '-1'. All internal usage of MPOL_PREFERRED will convert the '-1' to the id of the node local to the cpu where the allocation occurs. System default policy, except during boot, is hard-coded to "local allocation". By using the MPOL_PREFERRED mode with a negative value of preferred node for system default policy, MPOL_DEFAULT will never occur in the 'policy' member of a struct mempolicy. Thus, we can remove all checks for MPOL_DEFAULT when converting policy to a node id/zonelist in the allocation paths. In slab_node() return local node id when policy pointer is NULL. No need to set a pol value to take the switch default. Replace switch default with BUG()--i.e., shouldn't happen. With this patch MPOL_DEFAULT is only used in the APIs, including internal calls to do_set_mempolicy() and in the display of policy in /proc/<pid>/numa_maps. It always means "fall back" to the the next most specific policy scope. This simplifies the description of memory policies quite a bit, with no visible change in behavior. get_mempolicy() continues to return MPOL_DEFAULT and an empty nodemask when the requested policy [task or vma/shared] is NULL. These are the values one would supply via set_mempolicy() or mbind() to achieve that condition--default behavior. This patch updates Documentation to reflect this change.

mempolicy: add MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES flag Add an optional mempolicy mode flag, MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES, that suppresses the node remap when the policy is rebound. Adds another member to struct mempolicy, nodemask_t user_nodemask, as part of a union with cpuset_mems_allowed: struct mempolicy { ... union { nodemask_t cpuset_mems_allowed; nodemask_t user_nodemask; } w; } that stores the the nodemask that the user passed when he or she created the mempolicy via set_mempolicy() or mbind(). When using MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES, which is passed with any mempolicy mode, the user's passed nodemask intersected with the VMA or task's allowed nodes is always used when determining the preferred node, setting the MPOL_BIND zonelist, or creating the interleave nodemask. This happens whenever the policy is rebound, including when a task's cpuset assignment changes or the cpuset's mems are changed. This creates an interesting side-effect in that it allows the mempolicy "intent" to lie dormant and uneffected until it has access to the node(s) that it desires. For example, if you currently ask for an interleaved policy over a set of nodes that you do not have access to, the mempolicy is not created and the task continues to use the previous policy. With this change, however, it is possible to create the same mempolicy; it is only effected when access to nodes in the nodemask is acquired. It is also possible to mount tmpfs with the static nodemask behavior when specifying a node or nodemask. To do this, simply add "=static" immediately following the mempolicy mode at mount time: mount -o remount mpol=interleave=static:1-3 Also removes mpol_check_policy() and folds its logic into mpol_new() since it is now obsoleted. The unused vma_mpol_equal() is also removed.

mempolicy: clean-up mpol-to-str() mempolicy formatting mpol-to-str() formats memory policies into printable strings. Currently this is only used to display "numa_maps". A subsequent patch will use mpol_to_str() for formatting tmpfs [shmem] mpol mount options, allowing us to remove essentially duplicate code in mm/shmem.c. This patch cleans up mpol_to_str() generally and in preparation for that patch. 1) show_numa_maps() is not checking the return code from mpol_to_str(). There's not a lot we can do in this context if mpol_to_str() did return the error [insufficient space in buffer]. Proposed "solution": just check, under DEBUG_VM, that callers are providing sufficient buffer space for the policy, flags, and a few nodes. This way, we'll get some display. show_numa_maps() is providing a 50-byte buffer, so it won't trip this check. 50-bytes should be sufficient unless one has a large number of nodes in a very sparse nodemask. 2) The display of the new mode flags ["static" & "relative"] was set up to display multiple flags, separated by a "bar" '|'. However, this support is incomplete--e.g., need_bar was never incremented; and currently, these two flags are mutually exclusive. So remove the "bar" support, for now, and only display one flag. 3) Use snprint() to format flags, so as not to overflow the buffer. Not that it's ever happed, AFAIK.

mempolicy: use MPOL_PREFERRED for system-wide default policy Currently, when one specifies MPOL_DEFAULT via a NUMA memory policy API [set_mempolicy(), mbind() and internal versions], the kernel simply installs a NULL struct mempolicy pointer in the appropriate context: task policy, vma policy, or shared policy. This causes any use of that policy to "fall back" to the next most specific policy scope. The only use of MPOL_DEFAULT to mean "local allocation" is in the system default policy. This requires extra checks/cases for MPOL_DEFAULT in many mempolicy.c functions. There is another, "preferred" way to specify local allocation via the APIs. That is using the MPOL_PREFERRED policy mode with an empty nodemask. Internally, the empty nodemask gets converted to a preferred_node id of '-1'. All internal usage of MPOL_PREFERRED will convert the '-1' to the id of the node local to the cpu where the allocation occurs. System default policy, except during boot, is hard-coded to "local allocation". By using the MPOL_PREFERRED mode with a negative value of preferred node for system default policy, MPOL_DEFAULT will never occur in the 'policy' member of a struct mempolicy. Thus, we can remove all checks for MPOL_DEFAULT when converting policy to a node id/zonelist in the allocation paths. In slab_node() return local node id when policy pointer is NULL. No need to set a pol value to take the switch default. Replace switch default with BUG()--i.e., shouldn't happen. With this patch MPOL_DEFAULT is only used in the APIs, including internal calls to do_set_mempolicy() and in the display of policy in /proc/<pid>/numa_maps. It always means "fall back" to the the next most specific policy scope. This simplifies the description of memory policies quite a bit, with no visible change in behavior. get_mempolicy() continues to return MPOL_DEFAULT and an empty nodemask when the requested policy [task or vma/shared] is NULL. These are the values one would supply via set_mempolicy() or mbind() to achieve that condition--default behavior. This patch updates Documentation to reflect this change.

tmpfs mempolicy: fix /proc/mounts corrupting memory Recently I suggested using "mount -o remount,mpol=local /tmp" in NUMA mempolicy testing. Very nasty. Reading /proc/mounts, /proc/pid/mounts or /proc/pid/mountinfo may then corrupt one bit of kernel memory, often in a page table (causing "Bad swap" or "Bad page map" warning or "Bad pagetable" oops), sometimes in a vm_area_struct or rbnode or somewhere worse. "mpol=prefer" and "mpol=prefer:Node" are equally toxic. Recent NUMA enhancements are not to blame: this dates back to 2.6.35, when commit e17f74af351c "mempolicy: don't call mpol_set_nodemask() when no_context" skipped mpol_parse_str()'s call to mpol_set_nodemask(), which used to initialize v.preferred_node, or set MPOL_F_LOCAL in flags. With slab poisoning, you can then rely on mpol_to_str() to set the bit for node 0x6b6b, probably in the next page above the caller's stack. mpol_parse_str() is only called from shmem_parse_options(): no_context is always true, so call it unused for now, and remove !no_context code. Set v.nodes or v.preferred_node or MPOL_F_LOCAL as mpol_to_str() might expect. Then mpol_to_str() can ignore its no_context argument also, the mpol being appropriately initialized whether contextualized or not. Rename its no_context unused too, and let subsequent patch remove them (that's not needed for stable backporting, which would involve rejects). I don't understand why MPOL_LOCAL is described as a pseudo-policy: it's a reasonable policy which suffers from a confusing implementation in terms of MPOL_PREFERRED with MPOL_F_LOCAL. I believe this would be much more robust if MPOL_LOCAL were recognized in switch statements throughout, MPOL_F_LOCAL deleted, and MPOL_PREFERRED use the (possibly empty) nodes mask like everyone else, instead of its preferred_node variant (I presume an optimization from the days before MPOL_LOCAL).

mempolicy: mPOL_PREFERRED cleanups for "local allocation" Here are a couple of "cleanups" for MPOL_PREFERRED behavior when v.preferred_node < 0 -- i.e., "local allocation": 1) [do_]get_mempolicy() calls the now renamed get_policy_nodemask() to fetch the nodemask associated with a policy. Currently, get_policy_nodemask() returns the set of nodes with memory, when the policy 'mode' is 'PREFERRED, and the preferred_node is < 0. Change to return an empty nodemask, as this is what was specified to achieve "local allocation". 2) When a task is moved into a [new] cpuset, mpol_rebind_policy() is called to adjust any task and vma policy nodes to be valid in the new cpuset. However, when the policy is MPOL_PREFERRED, and the preferred_node is <0, no rebind is necessary. The "local allocation" indication is valid in any cpuset. Existing code will "do the right thing" because node_remap() will just return the argument node when it is outside of the valid range of node ids. However, I think it is clearer and cleaner to skip the remap explicitly in this case. 3) mpol_to_str() produces a printable, "human readable" string from a struct mempolicy. For MPOL_PREFERRED with preferred_node <0, show "local", as this indicates local allocation, as the task migrates among nodes. Note that this matches the usage of "local allocation" in libnuma() and numactl. Without this change, I believe that node_set() [via set_bit()] will set bit 31, resulting in a misleading display.

mempolicy: rework shmem mpol parsing and display mm/shmem.c currently contains functions to parse and display memory policy strings for the tmpfs 'mpol' mount option. Move this to mm/mempolicy.c with the rest of the mempolicy support. With subsequent patches, we'll be able to remove knowledge of the details [mode, flags, policy, ...] completely from shmem.c 1) replace shmem_parse_mpol() in mm/shmem.c with mpol_parse_str() in mm/mempolicy.c. Rework to use the policy_types[] array [used by mpol_to_str()] to look up mode by name. 2) use mpol_to_str() to format policy for shmem_show_mpol(). mpol_to_str() expects a pointer to a struct mempolicy, so temporarily construct one. This will be replaced with a reference to a struct mempolicy in the tmpfs superblock in a subsequent patch. NOTE 1: I changed mpol_to_str() to use a colon ':' rather than an equal sign '=' as the nodemask delimiter to match mpol_parse_str() and the tmpfs/shmem mpol mount option formatting that now uses mpol_to_str(). This is a user visible change to numa_maps, but then the addition of the mode flags already changed the display. It makes sense to me to have the mounts and numa_maps display the policy in the same format. However, if anyone objects strongly, I can pass the desired nodemask delimeter as an arg to mpol_to_str(). Note 2: Like show_numa_map(), I don't check the return code from mpol_to_str(). I do use a longer buffer than the one provided by show_numa_map(), which seems to have sufficed so far.
