mm/vmscan: throttle reclaim until some writeback completes if congested
Patch series "Remove dependency on congestion_wait in mm/", v5.
This series that removes all calls to congestion_wait in mm/ and deletes
wait_iff_congested. It's not a clever implementation but
congestion_wait has been broken for a long time [1].
Even if congestion throttling worked, it was never a great idea. While
excessive dirty/writeback pages at the tail of the LRU is one
possibility that reclaim may be slow, there is also the problem of too
many pages being isolated and reclaim failing for other reasons
(elevated references, too many pages isolated, excessive LRU contention
etc).
This series replaces the "congestion" throttling with 3 different types.
- If there are too many dirty/writeback pages, sleep until a timeout or
enough pages get cleaned
- If too many pages are isolated, sleep until enough isolated pages are
either reclaimed or put back on the LRU
- If no progress is being made, direct reclaim tasks sleep until
another task makes progress with acceptable efficiency.
This was initially tested with a mix of workloads that used to trigger
corner cases that no longer work. A new test case was created called
"stutterp" (pagereclaim-stutterp-noreaders in mmtests) using a freshly
created XFS filesystem. Note that it may be necessary to increase the
timeout of ssh if executing remotely as ssh itself can get throttled and
the connection may timeout.
stutterp varies the number of "worker" processes from 4 up to NR_CPUS*4
to check the impact as the number of direct reclaimers increase. It has
four types of worker.
- One "anon latency" worker creates small mappings with mmap() and
times how long it takes to fault the mapping reading it 4K at a time
- X file writers which is fio randomly writing X files where the total
size of the files add up to the allowed dirty_ratio. fio is allowed
to run for a warmup period to allow some file-backed pages to
accumulate. The duration of the warmup is based on the best-case
linear write speed of the storage.
- Y file readers which is fio randomly reading small files
- Z anon memory hogs which continually map (100-dirty_ratio)% of memory
- Total estimated WSS = (100+dirty_ration) percentage of memory
X+Y+Z+1 == NR_WORKERS varying from 4 up to NR_CPUS*4
The intent is to maximise the total WSS with a mix of file and anon
memory where some anonymous memory must be swapped and there is a high
likelihood of dirty/writeback pages reaching the end of the LRU.
The test can be configured to have no background readers to stress
dirty/writeback pages. The results below are based on having zero
readers.
The short summary of the results is that the series works and stalls
until some event occurs but the timeouts may need adjustment.
The test results are not broken down by patch as the series should be
treated as one block that replaces a broken throttling mechanism with a
working one.
Finally, three machines were tested but I'm reporting the worst set of
results. The other two machines had much better latencies for example.
First the results of the "anon latency" latency

For most thread counts, the time to mmap() is unfortunately increased.
In earlier versions of the series, this was lower but a large number of
throttling events were reaching their timeout increasing the amount of
inefficient scanning of the LRU. There is no prioritisation of reclaim
tasks making progress based on each tasks rate of page allocation versus
progress of reclaim. The variance is also impacted for high worker
counts but in all cases, the differences in latency are not
statistically significant due to very large maximum outliers. Max-90
shows that 90% of the stalls are comparable but the Max results show the
massive outliers which are increased to to stalling.
It is expected that this will be very machine dependant. Due to the
test design, reclaim is difficult so allocations stall and there are
variances depending on whether THPs can be allocated or not. The amount
of memory will affect exactly how bad the corner cases are and how often
they trigger. The warmup period calculation is not ideal as it's based
on linear writes where as fio is randomly writing multiple files from
multiple tasks so the start state of the test is variable. For example,
these are the latencies on a single-socket machine that had more memory

Kswapd scanned less pages but the detailed pattern is different. The
vanilla kernel scans slowly over time where as the patches exhibits
burst patterns of scan activity. Direct reclaim scanning is reduced by
52% due to stalling.
The pattern for stealing pages is also slightly different. Both kernels
exhibit spikes but the vanilla kernel when reclaiming shows pages being
reclaimed over a period of time where as the patches tend to reclaim in
spikes. The difference is that vanilla is not throttling and instead
scanning constantly finding some pages over time where as the patched
kernel throttles and reclaims in spikes.

82394 writeback_wait_iff_congested: usec_timeout=100000 usec_delayed=0
The fast majority of wait_iff_congested calls do not stall at all. What
is likely happening is that cond_resched() reschedules the task for a
short period when the BDI is not registering congestion (which it never
will in this test setup).

778 writeback_congestion_wait: usec_timeout=100000 usec_delayed=104000
congestion_wait if called always exceeds the timeout as there is no
trigger to wake it up.
Bottom line: Vanilla will throttle but it's not effective.

------------
Kswapd throttle activity was always due to scanning pages tagged for
immediate reclaim at the tail of the LRU

112 usec_timeout=100000 usect_delayed=4000 reason=VMSCAN_THROTTLE_WRITEBACK
The majority of events did not stall or stalled for a short period.
Roughly 16% of stalls reached the timeout before expiry. For direct
reclaim, the number of times stalled for each reason were
6624 reason=VMSCAN_THROTTLE_ISOLATED
93246 reason=VMSCAN_THROTTLE_NOPROGRESS
96934 reason=VMSCAN_THROTTLE_WRITEBACK
The most common reason to stall was due to excessive pages tagged for
immediate reclaim at the tail of the LRU followed by a failure to make
forward. A relatively small number were due to too many pages isolated
from the LRU by parallel threads
For VMSCAN_THROTTLE_ISOLATED, the breakdown of delays was

6520 usec_timeout=20000 usect_delayed=0 reason=VMSCAN_THROTTLE_ISOLATED
Most did not stall at all. A small number reached the timeout.
For VMSCAN_THROTTLE_NOPROGRESS, the breakdown of stalls were all over
the map

progress.
While this timeout could be further increased, it could also negatively
impact worst-case behaviour when there is no prioritisation of what task

The majority hit the timeout in direct reclaim context although a
sizable number did not stall at all. This is very different to kswapd
where only a tiny percentage of stalls due to writeback reached the
timeout.
Bottom line, the throttling appears to work and the wakeup events may
limit worst case stalls. There might be some grounds for adjusting
timeouts but it's likely futile as the worst-case scenarios depend on
the workload, memory size and the speed of the storage. A better
approach to improve the series further would be to prioritise tasks
based on their rate of allocation with the caveat that it may be very
expensive to track.
This patch (of 5):
Page reclaim throttles on wait_iff_congested under the following
conditions:
- kswapd is encountering pages under writeback and marked for immediate
reclaim implying that pages are cycling through the LRU faster than
pages can be cleaned.
- Direct reclaim will stall if all dirty pages are backed by congested
inodes.
wait_iff_congested is almost completely broken with few exceptions.
This patch adds a new node-based workqueue and tracks the number of
throttled tasks and pages written back since throttling started. If
enough pages belonging to the node are written back then the throttled
tasks will wake early. If not, the throttled tasks sleeps until the
timeout expires.

mm: filemap: coding style cleanup for filemap_map_pmd()
Patch series "Solve silent data loss caused by poisoned page cache (shmem/tmpfs)", v5.
When discussing the patch that splits page cache THP in order to offline
the poisoned page, Noaya mentioned there is a bigger problem [1] that
prevents this from working since the page cache page will be truncated
if uncorrectable errors happen. By looking this deeper it turns out
this approach (truncating poisoned page) may incur silent data loss for
all non-readonly filesystems if the page is dirty. It may be worse for
in-memory filesystem, e.g. shmem/tmpfs since the data blocks are
actually gone.
To solve this problem we could keep the poisoned dirty page in page
cache then notify the users on any later access, e.g. page fault,
read/write, etc. The clean page could be truncated as is since they can
be reread from disk later on.
The consequence is the filesystems may find poisoned page and manipulate
it as healthy page since all the filesystems actually don't check if the
page is poisoned or not in all the relevant paths except page fault. In
general, we need make the filesystems be aware of poisoned page before
we could keep the poisoned page in page cache in order to solve the data
loss problem.
To make filesystems be aware of poisoned page we should consider:
- The page should be not written back: clearing dirty flag could
prevent from writeback.
- The page should not be dropped (it shows as a clean page) by drop
caches or other callers: the refcount pin from hwpoison could prevent
from invalidating (called by cache drop, inode cache shrinking, etc),
but it doesn't avoid invalidation in DIO path.
- The page should be able to get truncated/hole punched/unlinked: it
works as it is.
- Notify users when the page is accessed, e.g. read/write, page fault
and other paths (compression, encryption, etc).
The scope of the last one is huge since almost all filesystems need do
it once a page is returned from page cache lookup. There are a couple
of options to do it:
1. Check hwpoison flag for every path, the most straightforward way.
2. Return NULL for poisoned page from page cache lookup, the most
callsites check if NULL is returned, this should have least work I
think. But the error handling in filesystems just return -ENOMEM,
the error code will incur confusion to the users obviously.
3. To improve #2, we could return error pointer, e.g. ERR_PTR(-EIO),
but this will involve significant amount of code change as well
since all the paths need check if the pointer is ERR or not just
like option #1.
I did prototypes for both #1 and #3, but it seems #3 may require more
changes than #1. For #3 ERR_PTR will be returned so all the callers
need to check the return value otherwise invalid pointer may be
dereferenced, but not all callers really care about the content of the
page, for example, partial truncate which just sets the truncated range
in one page to 0. So for such paths it needs additional modification if
ERR_PTR is returned. And if the callers have their own way to handle
the problematic pages we need to add a new FGP flag to tell FGP
functions to return the pointer to the page.
It may happen very rarely, but once it happens the consequence (data
corruption) could be very bad and it is very hard to debug. It seems
this problem had been slightly discussed before, but seems no action was
taken at that time. [2]
As the aforementioned investigation, it needs huge amount of work to
solve the potential data loss for all filesystems. But it is much
easier for in-memory filesystems and such filesystems actually suffer
more than others since even the data blocks are gone due to truncating.
So this patchset starts from shmem/tmpfs by taking option #1.

* The unpoison has been broken since commit

mm: stop filemap_read() from grabbing a superfluous page
Under some circumstances, filemap_read() will allocate sufficient pages to read to the end of the file, call readahead/readpages on them and copy the data over - and then it will allocate another page at the EOF and call readpage on that and then ignore it. This is unnecessary and a waste of time and resources. filemap_read() *does* check for this, but only after it has already done the allocation and I/O. Fix this by checking before calling filemap_get_pages() also.

Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
"The highlights of this round are integrations with fs-verity and
idmapped mounts, the rest is usual mix of minor improvements, speedups
and cleanups.
There are some patches outside of btrfs, namely updating some VFS
interfaces, all straightforward and acked.
Features:
- fs-verity support, using standard ioctls, backward compatible with
read-only limitation on inodes with previously enabled fs-verity
- idmapped mount support
- make mount with rescue=ibadroots more tolerant to partially damaged
trees
- allow raid0 on a single device and raid10 on two devices,
degenerate cases but might be useful as an intermediate step during
conversion to other profiles
- zoned mode block group auto reclaim can be disabled via sysfs knob
Performance improvements:
- continue readahead of node siblings even if target node is in
memory, could speed up full send (on sample test +11%)
- batching of delayed items can speed up creating many files
- fsync/tree-log speedups
- avoid unnecessary work (gains +2% throughput, -2% run time on
sample load)
- reduced lock contention on renames (on dbench +4% throughput,
up to -30% latency)
Fixes:
- various zoned mode fixes
- preemptive flushing threshold tuning, avoid excessive work on
almost full filesystems
Core:
- continued subpage support, preparation for implementing remaining
features like compression and defragmentation; with some
limitations, write is now enabled on 64K page systems with 4K
sectors, still considered experimental
- no readahead on compressed reads
- inline extents disabled
- disabled raid56 profile conversion and mount
- improved flushing logic, fixing early ENOSPC on some workloads
- inode flags have been internally split to read-only and read-write
incompat bit parts, used by fs-verity
- new tree items for fs-verity
- descriptor item
- Merkle tree item
- inode operations extended to be namespace-aware
- cleanups and refactoring
Generic code changes:
- fs: new export filemap_fdatawrite_wbc
- fs: removed sync_inode
- block: bio_trim argument type fixups
- vfs: add namespace-aware lookup"

fs: add a filemap_fdatawrite_wbc helper
Btrfs sometimes needs to flush dirty pages on a bunch of dirty inodes in order to reclaim metadata reservations. Unfortunately most helpers in this area are too smart for us: 1) The normal filemap_fdata* helpers only take range and sync modes, and don't give any indication of how much was written, so we can only flush full inodes, which isn't what we want in most cases. 2) The normal writeback path requires us to have the s_umount sem held, but we can't unconditionally take it in this path because we could deadlock. 3) The normal writeback path also skips inodes with I_SYNC set if we write with WB_SYNC_NONE. This isn't the behavior we want under heavy ENOSPC pressure, we want to actually make sure the pages are under writeback before returning, and if another thread is in the middle of writing the file we may return before they're under writeback and miss our ordered extents and not properly wait for completion. 4) sync_inode() uses the normal writeback path and has the same problem as #3. What we really want is to call do_writepages() with our wbc. This way we can make sure that writeback is actually started on the pages, and we can control how many pages are written as a whole as we write many inodes using the same wbc. Accomplish this with a new helper that does just that so we can use it for our ENOSPC flushing infrastructure.

mm: Protect operations adding pages to page cache with invalidate_lock
Currently, serializing operations such as page fault, read, or readahead against hole punching is rather difficult. The basic race scheme is like: fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE) read / fault / .. truncate_inode_pages_range() <create pages in page cache here> <update fs block mapping and free blocks> Now the problem is in this way read / page fault / readahead can instantiate pages in page cache with potentially stale data (if blocks get quickly reused). Avoiding this race is not simple - page locks do not work because we want to make sure there are *no* pages in given range. inode->i_rwsem does not work because page fault happens under mmap_sem which ranks below inode->i_rwsem. Also using it for reads makes the performance for mixed read-write workloads suffer. So create a new rw_semaphore in the address_space - invalidate_lock - that protects adding of pages to page cache for page faults / reads / readahead. Reviewed-by: Darrick J.

mm: charge active memcg when no mm is set
set_active_memcg() worked for kernel allocations but was silently ignored for user pages. This patch establishes a precedence order for who gets charged: 1. If there is a memcg associated with the page already, that memcg is charged. This happens during swapin. 2. If an explicit mm is passed, mm->memcg is charged. This happens during page faults, which can be triggered in remote VMs (eg gup). 3. Otherwise consult the current process context. If there is an active_memcg, use that. Otherwise, current->mm->memcg. Previously, if a NULL mm was passed to mem_cgroup_charge (case 3) it would always charge the root cgroup. Now it looks up the active_memcg first (falling back to charging the root cgroup if not set).

mm/filemap: drop check for truncated page after I/O
If the I/O completed successfully, the page will remain Uptodate, even
if it is subsequently truncated. If the I/O completed with an error,
this check would cause us to retry the I/O if the page were truncated
before we woke up. There is no need to retry the I/O; the I/O to fill
the page failed, so we can legitimately just return -EIO.
This code was originally added by commit 56f0d5fe6851 ("[PATCH]
readpage-vs-invalidate fix") in 2005 (this commit ID is from the
linux-fullhistory tree; it is also commit ba1f08f14b52 in tglx-history).

For the generic page cache read helper, use the better variant of checking for the need to call filemap_write_and_wait_range() when doing O_DIRECT reads.

mm: provide filemap_range_needs_writeback() helper
Patch series "Improve IOCB_NOWAIT O_DIRECT reads", v3. An internal workload complained because it was using too much CPU, and when I took a look, we had a lot of io_uring workers going to town. For an async buffered read like workload, I am normally expecting _zero_ offloads to a worker thread, but this one had tons of them. I'd drop caches and things would look good again, but then a minute later we'd regress back to using workers. Turns out that every minute something was reading parts of the device, which would add page cache for that inode. I put patches like these in for our kernel, and the problem was solved. Don't -EAGAIN IOCB_NOWAIT dio reads just because we have page cache entries for the given range. This causes unnecessary work from the callers side, when the IO could have been issued totally fine without blocking on writeback when there is none. This patch (of 3): For O_DIRECT reads/writes, we check if we need to issue a call to filemap_write_and_wait_range() to issue and/or wait for writeback for any page in the given range. The existing mechanism just checks for a page in the range, which is suboptimal for IOCB_NOWAIT as we'll fallback to the slow path (and needing retry) if there's just a clean page cache page in the range. Provide filemap_range_needs_writeback() which tries a little harder to check if we actually need to issue and/or wait for writeback in the range.

Merge tag 'netfs-lib-20210426' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs
Pull network filesystem helper library updates from David Howells:
"Here's a set of patches for 5.13 to begin the process of overhauling
the local caching API for network filesystems. This set consists of
two parts:
(1) Add a helper library to handle the new VM readahead interface.
This is intended to be used unconditionally by the filesystem
(whether or not caching is enabled) and provides a common
framework for doing caching, transparent huge pages and, in the
future, possibly fscrypt and read bandwidth maximisation. It also
allows the netfs and the cache to align, expand and slice up a
read request from the VM in various ways; the netfs need only
provide a function to read a stretch of data to the pagecache and
the helper takes care of the rest.
(2) Add an alternative fscache/cachfiles I/O API that uses the kiocb
facility to do async DIO to transfer data to/from the netfs's
pages, rather than using readpage with wait queue snooping on one
side and vfs_write() on the other. It also uses less memory, since
it doesn't do buffered I/O on the backing file.
Note that this uses SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA to locate the data
available to be read from the cache. Whilst this is an improvement
from the bmap interface, it still has a problem with regard to a
modern extent-based filesystem inserting or removing bridging
blocks of zeros. Fixing that requires a much greater overhaul.
This is a step towards overhauling the fscache API. The change is
opt-in on the part of the network filesystem. A netfs should not try
to mix the old and the new API because of conflicting ways of handling
pages and the PG_fscache page flag and because it would be mixing DIO
with buffered I/O. Further, the helper library can't be used with the
old API.
This does not change any of the fscache cookie handling APIs or the
way invalidation is done at this time.
In the near term, I intend to deprecate and remove the old I/O API
(fscache_allocate_page{,s}(), fscache_read_or_alloc_page{,s}(),
fscache_write_page() and fscache_uncache_page()) and eventually
replace most of fscache/cachefiles with something simpler and easier
to follow.
This patchset contains the following parts:
- Some helper patches, including provision of an ITER_XARRAY iov
iterator and a function to do readahead expansion.
- Patches to add the netfs helper library.
- A patch to add the fscache/cachefiles kiocb API.
- A pair of patches to fix some review issues in the ITER_XARRAY and
read helpers as spotted by Al and Willy.
Jeff Layton has patches to add support in Ceph for this that he
intends for this merge window. I have a set of patches to support AFS
that I will post a separate pull request for.
With this, AFS without a cache passes all expected xfstests; with a
cache, there's an extra failure, but that's also there before these
patches. Fixing that probably requires a greater overhaul. Ceph also
passes the expected tests.
I also have patches in a separate branch to tidy up the handling of
PG_fscache/PG_private_2 and their contribution to page refcounting in
the core kernel here, but I haven't included them in this set and will
route them separately"

mm/filemap: fix mapping_seek_hole_data on THP & 32-bit
No problem on 64-bit, or without huge pages, but xfstests generic/285
and other SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA tests have regressed on huge tmpfs, and on
32-bit architectures, with the new mapping_seek_hole_data(). Several
different bugs turned out to need fixing.
u64 cast to stop losing bits when converting unsigned long to loff_t
(and let's use shifts throughout, rather than mixed with * and /).
Use round_up() when advancing pos, to stop assuming that pos was already
THP-aligned when advancing it by THP-size. (This use of round_up()
assumes that any THP has THP-aligned index: true at present and true
going forward, but could be recoded to avoid the assumption.)
Use xas_set() when iterating away from a THP, so that xa_index stays in
synch with start, instead of drifting away to return bogus offset.
Check start against end to avoid wrapping 32-bit xa_index to 0 (and to
handle these additional cases, seek_data or not, it's easier to break
the loop than goto: so rearrange exit from the function).

mm: Add set/end/wait functions for PG_private_2
Add three functions to manipulate PG_private_2:
(*) set_page_private_2() - Set the flag and take an appropriate reference
on the flagged page.
(*) end_page_private_2() - Clear the flag, drop the reference and wake up
any waiters, somewhat analogously with end_page_writeback().
(*) wait_on_page_private_2() - Wait for the flag to be cleared.
Wrappers will need to be placed in the netfs lib header in the patch that
adds that.
[This implements a suggestion by Linus[1] to not mix the terminology of
PG_private_2 and PG_fscache in the mm core function]
Changes:
v7:
- Use compound_head() in all the functions to make them THP safe[6].
v5:
- Add set and end functions, calling the end function end rather than
unlock[3].
- Keep a ref on the page when PG_private_2 is set[4][5].
v4:
- Remove extern from the declaration[2].

mm: add and use find_lock_entries
We have three functions (shmem_undo_range(), truncate_inode_pages_range() and invalidate_mapping_pages()) which want exactly this function, so add it to filemap.c. Before this patch, shmem_undo_range() would split any compound page which overlaps either end of the range being punched in both the first and second loops through the address space. After this patch, that functionality is left for the second loop, which is arguably more appropriate since the first loop is supposed to run through all the pages quickly, and splitting a page can sleep.

mm: make pagecache tagged lookups return only head pages
Patch series "Overhaul multi-page lookups for THP", v4. This THP prep patchset changes several page cache iteration APIs to only return head pages. - It's only possible to tag head pages in the page cache, so only return head pages, not all their subpages. - Factor a lot of common code out of the various batch lookup routines - Add mapping_seek_hole_data() - Unify find_get_entries() and pagevec_lookup_entries() - Make find_get_entries only return head pages, like find_get_entry(). These are only loosely connected, but they seem to make sense together as a series. This patch (of 14): Pagecache tags are used for dirty page writeback. Since dirtiness is tracked on a per-THP basis, we only want to return the head page rather than each subpage of a tagged page. All the filesystems which use huge pages today are in-memory, so there are no tagged huge pages today.

mm: memcontrol: convert NR_SHMEM_THPS account to pages
Currently we use struct per_cpu_nodestat to cache the vmstat counters,
which leads to inaccurate statistics especially THP vmstat counters. In
the systems with hundreds of processors it can be GBs of memory. For
example, for a 96 CPUs system, the threshold is the maximum number of 125.
And the per cpu counters can cache 23.4375 GB in total.
The THP page is already a form of batched addition (it will add 512 worth
of memory in one go) so skipping the batching seems like sensible.
Although every THP stats update overflows the per-cpu counter, resorting
to atomic global updates. But it can make the statistics more accuracy
for the THP vmstat counters.
So we convert the NR_SHMEM_THPS account to pages. This patch is
consistent with
