2262ace607 mm/munlock: delete smp_mb() from __pagevec_lru_add_fn()
My reading of comment on smp_mb__after_atomic() in __pagevec_lru_add_fn()
says that it can now be deleted; and that remains so when the next patch
is added.

07ca760673 mm/munlock: maintain page->mlock_count while unevictable
Previous patches have been preparatory: now implement page->mlock_count.
The ordering of the "Unevictable LRU" is of no significance, and there is
no point holding unevictable pages on a list: place page->mlock_count to
overlay page->lru.prev (since page->lru.next is overlaid by compound_head,
which needs to be even so as not to satisfy PageTail - though 2 could be
added instead of 1 for each mlock, if that's ever an improvement).

But it's only safe to rely on or modify page->mlock_count while lruvec
lock is held and page is on unevictable "LRU" - we can save lots of edits
by continuing to pretend that there's an imaginary LRU here (there is an
unevictable count which still needs to be maintained, but not a list).

The mlock_count technique suffers from an unreliability much like with
page_mlock(): while someone else has the page off LRU, not much can
be done.  As before, err on the safe side (behave as if mlock_count 0),
and let try_to_unlock_one() move the page to unevictable if reclaim finds
out later on - a few misplaced pages don't matter, what we want to avoid
is imbalancing reclaim by flooding evictable lists with unevictable pages.

I am not a fan of "if (!isolate_lru_page(page)) putback_lru_page(page);":
if we have taken lruvec lock to get the page off its present list, then
we save everyone trouble (and however many extra atomic ops) by putting
it on its destination list immediately.

b109b87050 mm/munlock: replace clear_page_mlock() by final clearance
Placing munlock_vma_page() at the end of page_remove_rmap() shifts most
of the munlocking to clear_page_mlock(), since PageMlocked is typically
still set when mapcount has fallen to 0.  That is not what we want: we
want /proc/vmstat's unevictable_pgs_cleared to remain as a useful check
on the integrity of of the mlock/munlock protocol - small numbers are
not surprising, but big numbers mean the protocol is not working.

That could be easily fixed by placing munlock_vma_page() at the start of
page_remove_rmap(); but later in the series we shall want to batch the
munlocking, and that too would tend to leave PageMlocked still set at
the point when it is checked.

So delete clear_page_mlock() now: leave it instead to release_pages()
(and __page_cache_release()) to do this backstop clearing of Mlocked,
when page refcount has fallen to 0.  If a pinned page occasionally gets
counted as Mlocked and Unevictable until it is unpinned, that's okay.

A slightly regrettable side-effect of this change is that, since
release_pages() and __page_cache_release() may be called at interrupt
time, those places which update NR_MLOCK with interrupts enabled
had better use mod_zone_page_state() than __mod_zone_page_state()
(but holding the lruvec lock always has interrupts disabled).

This change, forcing Mlocked off when refcount 0 instead of earlier
when mapcount 0, is not fundamental: it can be reversed if performance
or something else is found to suffer; but this is the easiest way to
separate the stats - let's not complicate that without good reason.

3cd018b4d6 mm/swap.c:put_pages_list(): reinitialise the page list
While free_unref_page_list() puts pages onto the CPU local LRU list, it
does not remove them from the list they were passed in on.  That makes
the list_head appear to be non-empty, and would lead to various
corruption problems if we didn't have an assertion that the list was
empty.

Reinitialise the list after calling free_unref_page_list() to avoid this
problem.

988c69f1bc mm: optimise put_pages_list()
Instead of calling put_page() one page at a time, pop pages off the list
if their refcount was too high and pass the remainder to
put_unref_page_list().  This should be a speed improvement, but I have
no measurements to support that.  Current callers do not care about
performance, but I hope to add some which do.

243418e392 mm: fs: invalidate bh_lrus for only cold path
The kernel test robot reported the regression of fio.write_iops[1] with
commit 8cc621d2f4 ("mm: fs: invalidate BH LRU during page migration").

Since lru_add_drain is called frequently, invalidate bh_lrus there could
increase bh_lrus cache miss ratio, which needs more IO in the end.

This patch moves the bh_lrus invalidation from the hot path( e.g.,
zap_page_range, pagevec_release) to cold path(i.e., lru_add_drain_all,
lru_cache_disable).

Zhengjun Xing confirmed

44042b4498 mm/page_alloc: allow high-order pages to be stored on the per-cpu lists
The per-cpu page allocator (PCP) only stores order-0 pages.  This means
that all THP and "cheap" high-order allocations including SLUB contends on
the zone->lock.  This patch extends the PCP allocator to store THP and
"cheap" high-order pages.  Note that struct per_cpu_pages increases in
size to 256 bytes (4 cache lines) on x86-64.

Note that this is not necessarily a universal performance win because of
how it is implemented.  High-order pages can cause pcp->high to be
exceeded prematurely for lower-orders so for example, a large number of
THP pages being freed could release order-0 pages from the PCP lists.
Hence, much depends on the allocation/free pattern as observed by a single
CPU to determine if caching helps or hurts a particular workload.

That said, basic performance testing passed.  The following is a netperf
UDP_STREAM test which hits the relevant patches as some of the network
allocations are high-order.

Functionally, a patch like this is necessary to make bulk allocation of
high-order pages work with similar performance to order-0 bulk
allocations.  The bulk allocator is not updated in this series as it would
have to be determined by bulk allocation users how they want to track the
order of pages allocated with the bulk allocator.

a984226f45 mm: memcontrol: remove the pgdata parameter of mem_cgroup_page_lruvec
All the callers of mem_cgroup_page_lruvec() just pass page_pgdat(page) as
the 2nd parameter to it (except isolate_migratepages_block()).  But for
isolate_migratepages_block(), the page_pgdat(page) is also equal to the
local variable of @pgdat.  So mem_cgroup_page_lruvec() do not need the
pgdat parameter.  Just remove it to simplify the code.

8cc621d2f4 mm: fs: invalidate BH LRU during page migration
Pages containing buffer_heads that are in one of the per-CPU buffer_head
LRU caches will be pinned and thus cannot be migrated.  This can prevent
CMA allocations from succeeding, which are often used on platforms with
co-processors (such as a DSP) that can only use physically contiguous
memory.  It can also prevent memory hot-unplugging from succeeding,
which involves migrating at least MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE bytes of memory,
which ranges from 8 MiB to 1 GiB based on the architecture in use.

Correspondingly, invalidate the BH LRU caches before a migration starts
and stop any buffer_head from being cached in the LRU caches, until
migration has finished.

d479960e44 mm: disable LRU pagevec during the migration temporarily
LRU pagevec holds refcount of pages until the pagevec are drained.  It
could prevent migration since the refcount of the page is greater than
the expection in migration logic.  To mitigate the issue, callers of
migrate_pages drains LRU pagevec via migrate_prep or lru_add_drain_all
before migrate_pages call.

However, it's not enough because pages coming into pagevec after the
draining call still could stay at the pagevec so it could keep
preventing page migration.  Since some callers of migrate_pages have
retrial logic with LRU draining, the page would migrate at next trail
but it is still fragile in that it doesn't close the fundamental race
between upcoming LRU pages into pagvec and migration so the migration
failure could cause contiguous memory allocation failure in the end.

To close the race, this patch disables lru caches(i.e, pagevec) during
ongoing migration until migrate is done.

Since it's really hard to reproduce, I measured how many times
migrate_pages retried with force mode(it is about a fallback to a sync
migration) with below debug code.

int migrate_pages(struct list_head *from, new_page_t get_new_page,
			..
			..

  if (rc && reason == MR_CONTIG_RANGE && pass > 2) {
         printk(KERN_ERR, "pfn 0x%lx reason %d", page_to_pfn(page), rc);
         dump_page(page, "fail to migrate");
  }

The test was repeating android apps launching with cma allocation in
background every five seconds.  Total cma allocation count was about 500
during the testing.  With this patch, the dump_page count was reduced
from 400 to 30.

The new interface is also useful for memory hotplug which currently
drains lru pcp caches after each migration failure.  This is rather
suboptimal as it has to disrupt others running during the operation.
With the new interface the operation happens only once.  This is also in
line with pcp allocator cache which are disabled for the offlining as
well.

Similar to page_off_lru(), the new function does non-atomic clearing
of PageLRU() in addition to PageActive() and PageUnevictable(), on a

If PageActive() and PageUnevictable() are both set, refuse to clear

is meant to help debug.

When testing for relock we can avoid the need for RCU locking if we simply
compare the page pgdat and memcg pointers versus those that the lruvec is
holding.  By doing this we can avoid the extra pointer walks and accesses
of the memory cgroup.

In addition we can avoid the checks entirely if lruvec is currently NULL.

6168d0da2b mm/lru: replace pgdat lru_lock with lruvec lock
This patch moves per node lru_lock into lruvec, thus bring a lru_lock for
each of memcg per node.  So on a large machine, each of memcg don't have
to suffer from per node pgdat->lru_lock competition.  They could go fast
with their self lru_lock.

After move memcg charge before lru inserting, page isolation could
serialize page's memcg, then per memcg lruvec lock is stable and could
replace per node lru lock.

In isolate_migratepages_block(), compact_unlock_should_abort and
lock_page_lruvec_irqsave are open coded to work with compact_control.
Also add a debug func in locking which may give some clues if there are
sth out of hands.

Daniel Jordan's testing show 62% improvement on modified readtwice case on
his 2P * 10 core * 2 HT broadwell box.

fc574c2355 mm/swap.c: serialize memcg changes in pagevec_lru_move_fn
Hugh Dickins' found a memcg change bug on original version: If we want to
change the pgdat->lru_lock to memcg's lruvec lock, we have to serialize
mem_cgroup_move_account during pagevec_lru_move_fn.  The possible bad
scenario would like:

	cpu 0					cpu 1
lruvec = mem_cgroup_page_lruvec()
					if (!isolate_lru_page())
						mem_cgroup_move_account

spin_lock_irqsave(&lruvec->lru_lock <== wrong lock.

So we need TestClearPageLRU to block isolate_lru_page(), that serializes
the memcg change.  and then removing the PageLRU check in move_fn callee
as the consequence.

__pagevec_lru_add_fn() is different from the others, because the pages it

not needed and would not work, so __pagevec_lru_add() goes its own way.

75cc3c9161 mm/lru: move lock into lru_note_cost
We have to move lru_lock into lru_note_cost, since it cycle up on memcg
tree, for future per lruvec lru_lock replace.  It's a bit ugly and may
cost a bit more locking, but benefit from multiple memcg locking could
cover the lost.

c7c7b80c39 mm/swap.c: fold vm event PGROTATED into pagevec_move_tail_fn
Fold the PGROTATED event collection into pagevec_move_tail_fn call back
func like other funcs does in pagevec_lru_move_fn.  Thus we could save
func call pagevec_move_tail().  Now all usage of pagevec_lru_move_fn are
same and no needs of its 3rd parameter.

It's just simply the calling. No functional change.

88dcb9a3fb mm/thp: move lru_add_page_tail() to huge_memory.c
Patch series "per memcg lru lock", v21.

This patchset includes 3 parts:

 1) some code cleanup and minimum optimization as preparation

 2) use TestCleanPageLRU as page isolation's precondition

 3) replace per node lru_lock with per memcg per node lru_lock

Current lru_lock is one for each of node, pgdat->lru_lock, that guard
for lru lists, but now we had moved the lru lists into memcg for long
time.  Still using per node lru_lock is clearly unscalable, pages on
each of memcgs have to compete each others for a whole lru_lock.  This
patchset try to use per lruvec/memcg lru_lock to repleace per node lru
lock to guard lru lists, make it scalable for memcgs and get performance
gain.

Currently lru_lock still guards both lru list and page's lru bit, that's
ok.  but if we want to use specific lruvec lock on the page, we need to
pin down the page's lruvec/memcg during locking.  Just taking lruvec
lock first may be undermined by the page's memcg charge/migration.  To
fix this problem, we could take out the page's lru bit clear and use it
as pin down action to block the memcg changes.  That's the reason for
new atomic func TestClearPageLRU.  So now isolating a page need both
actions: TestClearPageLRU and hold the lru_lock.

The typical usage of this is isolate_migratepages_block() in
compaction.c we have to take lru bit before lru lock, that serialized
the page isolation in memcg page charge/migration which will change
page's lruvec and new lru_lock in it.

The above solution suggested by Johannes Weiner, and based on his new
memcg charge path, then have this patchset.  (Hugh Dickins tested and
contributed much code from compaction fix to general code polish, thanks
a lot!).

Daniel Jordan's testing show 62% improvement on modified readtwice case
on his 2P * 10 core * 2 HT broadwell box on v18, which has no much
different with this v20.

 https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200915165807.kpp7uhiw7l3loofu@ca-dmjordan1.us.oracle.com/

Thanks to Hugh Dickins and Konstantin Khlebnikov, they both brought this
idea 8 years ago, and others who gave comments as well: Daniel Jordan,
Mel Gorman, Shakeel Butt, Matthew Wilcox, Alexander Duyck etc.

Thanks for Testing support from Intel 0day and Rong Chen, Fengguang Wu,
and Yun Wang.  Hugh Dickins also shared his kbuild-swap case.

This patch (of 19):

lru_add_page_tail() is only used in huge_memory.c, defining it in other
file with a CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE macro restrict just looks weird.

Let's move it THP. And make it static as Hugh Dickins suggested.

43fbdeb349 mm: handle zone device pages in release_pages()
release_pages() is an optimized, inlined version of __put_pages() except
that zone device struct pages that are not page_is_devmap_managed() (i.e.,
memory_type MEMORY_DEVICE_GENERIC and MEMORY_DEVICE_PCI_P2PDMA), fall
through to the code that could return the zone device page to the page
allocator instead of adjusting the pgmap reference count.

Clearly these type of pages are not having the reference count decremented
to zero via release_pages() or page allocation problems would be seen.
Just to be safe, handle the 1 to zero case in release_pages() like
__put_page() does.

a9b576f725 mm: move call to compound_head() in release_pages()
The function is_huge_zero_page() doesn't call compound_head() to make sure
the page pointer is a head page. The call to is_huge_zero_page() in
release_pages() is made before compound_head() is called so the test would
fail if release_pages() was called with a tail page of the huge_zero_page
and put_page_testzero() would be called releasing the page.
This is unlikely to be happening in normal use or we would be seeing all
sorts of process data corruption when accessing a THP zero page.

Looking at other places where is_huge_zero_page() is called, all seem to
only pass a head page so I think the right solution is to move the call
to compound_head() in release_pages() to a point before calling
is_huge_zero_page().

6f4dd8de48 mm: remove superfluous __ClearPageActive()
To activate a page, mark_page_accessed() always holds a reference on it.
It either gets a new reference when adding a page to
lru_pvecs.activate_page or reuses an existing one it previously got when
it added a page to lru_pvecs.lru_add.  So it doesn't call SetPageActive()
on a page that doesn't have any reference left.  Therefore, the race is
impossible these days (I didn't brother to dig into its history).

For other paths, namely reclaim and migration, a reference count is always
held while calling SetPageActive() on a page.

SetPageSlabPfmemalloc() also uses SetPageActive(), but it's irrelevant to
LRU pages.

unevictable_pgs_culled and unevictable_pgs_rescued; but
lru_cache_add_inactive_or_unevictable() was not doing so for
unevictable_pgs_mlocked, and mm/mlock.c was not doing so for
unevictable_pgs mlocked, munlocked, cleared and stranded.

Fix them; but THPs don't go the pagevec way in mlock.c, so no fixes needed
on that path.

6446a5131e mm/swap: Do not abuse the seqcount_t latching API
Commit eef1a429f2 ("mm/swap.c: piggyback lru_add_drain_all() calls")
implemented an optimization mechanism to exit the to-be-started LRU
drain operation (name it A) if another drain operation *started and
finished* while (A) was blocked on the LRU draining mutex.

This was done through a seqcount_t latch, which is an abuse of its
semantics:

  1. seqcount_t latching should be used for the purpose of switching
     between two storage places with sequence protection to allow
     interruptible, preemptible, writer sections. The referenced
     optimization mechanism has absolutely nothing to do with that.

  2. The used raw_write_seqcount_latch() has two SMP write memory
     barriers to insure one consistent storage place out of the two
     storage places available. A full memory barrier is required
     instead: to guarantee that the pagevec counter stores visible by
     local CPU are visible to other CPUs -- before loading the current
     drain generation.

Beside the seqcount_t API abuse, the semantics of a latch sequence
counter was force-fitted into the referenced optimization. What was
meant is to track "generations" of LRU draining operations, where
"global lru draining generation = x" implies that all generations
0 < n <= x are already *scheduled* for draining -- thus nothing needs
to be done if the current generation number n <= x.

Remove the conceptually-inappropriate seqcount_t latch usage. Manually
implement the referenced optimization using a counter and SMP memory
barriers.

Note, while at it, use the non-atomic variant of cpumask_set_cpu(),
__cpumask_set_cpu(), due to the already existing mutex protection.

7e0cc01ea1 mm/swap.c: annotate data races for lru_rotate_pvecs
Read to lru_add_pvec->nr could be interrupted and then write to the same
variable.  The write has local interrupt disabled, but the plain reads
result in data races.  However, it is unlikely the compilers could do much
damage here given that lru_add_pvec->nr is a "unsigned char" and there is
an existing compiler barrier.  Thus, annotate the reads using the
data_race() macro.  The data races were reported by KCSAN,

b518154e59 mm/vmscan: protect the workingset on anonymous LRU
In current implementation, newly created or swap-in anonymous page is
started on active list.  Growing active list results in rebalancing
active/inactive list so old pages on active list are demoted to inactive
list.  Hence, the page on active list isn't protected at all.

Following is an example of this situation.

Assume that 50 hot pages on active list.  Numbers denote the number of
pages on active/inactive list (active | inactive).

1. 50 hot pages on active list
50(h) | 0

2. workload: 50 newly created (used-once) pages
50(uo) | 50(h)

3. workload: another 50 newly created (used-once) pages
50(uo) | 50(uo), swap-out 50(h)

This patch tries to fix this issue.  Like as file LRU, newly created or
swap-in anonymous pages will be inserted to the inactive list.  They are
promoted to active list if enough reference happens.  This simple
modification changes the above example as following.

1. 50 hot pages on active list
50(h) | 0

2. workload: 50 newly created (used-once) pages
50(h) | 50(uo)

3. workload: another 50 newly created (used-once) pages
50(h) | 50(uo), swap-out 50(uo)

As you can see, hot pages on active list would be protected.

Note that, this implementation has a drawback that the page cannot be
promoted and will be swapped-out if re-access interval is greater than the
size of inactive list but less than the size of total(active+inactive).
To solve this potential issue, following patch will apply workingset
detection similar to the one that's already applied to file LRU.

3f649ab728 treewide: Remove uninitialized_var() usage
Using uninitialized_var() is dangerous as it papers over real bugs[1]
(or can in the future), and suppresses unrelated compiler warnings
(e.g. "unused variable"). If the compiler thinks it is uninitialized,
either simply initialize the variable or make compiler changes.

In preparation for removing[2] the[3] macro[4], remove all remaining
needless uses with the following script:

git grep '\buninitialized_var\b' | cut -d: -f1 | sort -u | \
	xargs perl -pi -e \
		's/\buninitialized_var\(([^\)]+)\)/\1/g;
		 s:\s*/\* (GCC be quiet|to make compiler happy) \*/$::g;'

drivers/video/fbdev/riva/riva_hw.c was manually tweaked to avoid
pathological white-space.

No outstanding warnings were found building allmodconfig with GCC 9.3.0
for x86_64, i386, arm64, arm, powerpc, powerpc64le, s390x, mips, sparc64,

96f8bf4fb1 mm: vmscan: reclaim writepage is IO cost
The VM tries to balance reclaim pressure between anon and file so as to
reduce the amount of IO incurred due to the memory shortage.  It already
counts refaults and swapins, but in addition it should also count
writepage calls during reclaim.

For swap, this is obvious: it's IO that wouldn't have occurred if the
anonymous memory hadn't been under memory pressure.  From a relative
balancing point of view this makes sense as well: even if anon is cold and
reclaimable, a cache that isn't thrashing may have equally cold pages that
don't require IO to reclaim.

For file writeback, it's trickier: some of the reclaim writepage IO would
have likely occurred anyway due to dirty expiration.  But not all of it -
premature writeback reduces batching and generates additional writes.
Since the flushers are already woken up by the time the VM starts writing
cache pages one by one, let's assume that we'e likely causing writes that
wouldn't have happened without memory pressure.  In addition, the per-page
cost of IO would have probably been much cheaper if written in larger
batches from the flusher thread rather than the single-page-writes from
kswapd.

For our purposes - getting the trend right to accelerate convergence on a
stable state that doesn't require paging at all - this is sufficiently
accurate.  If we later wanted to optimize for sustained thrashing, we can
still refine the measurements.

Count all writepage calls from kswapd as IO cost toward the LRU that the
page belongs to.

Why do this dynamically?  Don't we know in advance that anon pages require
IO to reclaim, and so could build in a static bias?

First, scanning is not the same as reclaiming.  If all the anon pages are
referenced, we may not swap for a while just because we're scanning the
anon list.  During this time, however, it's important that we age
anonymous memory and the page cache at the same rate so that their
hot-cold gradients are comparable.  Everything else being equal, we still
want to reclaim the coldest memory overall.

Second, we keep copies in swap unless the page changes.  If there is
swap-backed data that's mostly read (tmpfs file) and has been swapped out
before, we can reclaim it without incurring additional IO.

7cf111bc39 mm: vmscan: determine anon/file pressure balance at the reclaim root
We split the LRU lists into anon and file, and we rebalance the scan
pressure between them when one of them begins thrashing: if the file cache
experiences workingset refaults, we increase the pressure on anonymous
pages; if the workload is stalled on swapins, we increase the pressure on
the file cache instead.

With cgroups and their nested LRU lists, we currently don't do this
correctly.  While recursive cgroup reclaim establishes a relative LRU
order among the pages of all involved cgroups, LRU pressure balancing is
done on an individual cgroup LRU level.  As a result, when one cgroup is
thrashing on the filesystem cache while a sibling may have cold anonymous
pages, pressure doesn't get equalized between them.

This patch moves LRU balancing decision to the root of reclaim - the same
level where the LRU order is established.

It does this by tracking LRU cost recursively, so that every level of the
cgroup tree knows the aggregate LRU cost of all memory within its domain.
When the page scanner calculates the scan balance for any given individual
cgroup's LRU list, it uses the values from the ancestor cgroup that
initiated the reclaim cycle.

If one sibling is then thrashing on the cache, it will tip the pressure
balance inside its ancestors, and the next hierarchical reclaim iteration
will go more after the anon pages in the tree.

314b57fb04 mm: balance LRU lists based on relative thrashing
Since the LRUs were split into anon and file lists, the VM has been
balancing between page cache and anonymous pages based on per-list ratios
of scanned vs.  rotated pages.  In most cases that tips page reclaim
towards the list that is easier to reclaim and has the fewest actively
used pages, but there are a few problems with it:

1. Refaults and LRU rotations are weighted the same way, even though
   one costs IO and the other costs a bit of CPU.

2. The less we scan an LRU list based on already observed rotations,
   the more we increase the sampling interval for new references, and
   rotations become even more likely on that list. This can enter a
   death spiral in which we stop looking at one list completely until
   the other one is all but annihilated by page reclaim.

Since commit a528910e12 ("mm: thrash detection-based file cache sizing")
we have refault detection for the page cache.  Along with swapin events,
they are good indicators of when the file or anon list, respectively, is
too small for its workingset and needs to grow.

For example, if the page cache is thrashing, the cache pages need more
time in memory, while there may be colder pages on the anonymous list.
Likewise, if swapped pages are faulting back in, it indicates that we
reclaim anonymous pages too aggressively and should back off.

Replace LRU rotations with refaults and swapins as the basis for relative
reclaim cost of the two LRUs.  This will have the VM target list balances
that incur the least amount of IO on aggregate.

fbbb602e40 mm: deactivations shouldn't bias the LRU balance
Operations like MADV_FREE, FADV_DONTNEED etc.  currently move any affected
active pages to the inactive list to accelerate their reclaim (good) but
also steer page reclaim toward that LRU type, or away from the other
(bad).

The reason why this is undesirable is that such operations are not part of
the regular page aging cycle, and rather a fluke that doesn't say much
about the remaining pages on that list; they might all be in heavy use,
and once the chunk of easy victims has been purged, the VM continues to
apply elevated pressure on those remaining hot pages.  The other LRU,
meanwhile, might have easily reclaimable pages, and there was never a need
to steer away from it in the first place.

As the previous patch outlined, we should focus on recording actually
observed cost to steer the balance rather than speculating about the
potential value of one LRU list over the other.  In that spirit, leave
explicitely deactivated pages to the LRU algorithm to pick up, and let
rotations decide which list is the easiest to reclaim.

1431d4d11a mm: base LRU balancing on an explicit cost model
Currently, scan pressure between the anon and file LRU lists is balanced
based on a mixture of reclaim efficiency and a somewhat vague notion of
"value" of having certain pages in memory over others.  That concept of
value is problematic, because it has caused us to count any event that
remotely makes one LRU list more or less preferrable for reclaim, even
when these events are not directly comparable and impose very different
costs on the system.  One example is referenced file pages that we still
deactivate and referenced anonymous pages that we actually rotate back to
the head of the list.

There is also conceptual overlap with the LRU algorithm itself.  By
rotating recently used pages instead of reclaiming them, the algorithm
already biases the applied scan pressure based on page value.  Thus, when
rebalancing scan pressure due to rotations, we should think of reclaim
cost, and leave assessing the page value to the LRU algorithm.

Lastly, considering both value-increasing as well as value-decreasing
events can sometimes cause the same type of event to be counted twice,
i.e.  how rotating a page increases the LRU value, while reclaiming it
succesfully decreases the value.  In itself this will balance out fine,
but it quietly skews the impact of events that are only recorded once.

The abstract metric of "value", the murky relationship with the LRU
algorithm, and accounting both negative and positive events make the
current pressure balancing model hard to reason about and modify.

This patch switches to a balancing model of accounting the concrete,
actually observed cost of reclaiming one LRU over another.  For now, that
cost includes pages that are scanned but rotated back to the list head.
Subsequent patches will add consideration for IO caused by refaulting of
recently evicted pages.

Replace struct zone_reclaim_stat with two cost counters in the lruvec, and
make everything that affects cost go through a new lru_note_cost()
function.

9682468747 mm: remove use-once cache bias from LRU balancing
When the splitlru patches divided page cache and swap-backed pages into
separate LRU lists, the pressure balance between the lists was biased to
account for the fact that streaming IO can cause memory pressure with a
flood of pages that are used only once.  New page cache additions would
tip the balance toward the file LRU, and repeat access would neutralize
that bias again.  This ensured that page reclaim would always go for
used-once cache first.

Since e986850598 ("mm,vmscan: only evict file pages when we have
plenty"), page reclaim generally skips over swap-backed memory entirely as
long as there is used-once cache present, and will apply the LRU balancing
when only repeatedly accessed cache pages are left - at which point the
previous use-once bias will have been neutralized.  This makes the
use-once cache balancing bias unnecessary.

5df741963d mm: fix LRU balancing effect of new transparent huge pages
The reclaim code that balances between swapping and cache reclaim tries to
predict likely reuse based on in-memory reference patterns alone.  This
works in many cases, but when it fails it cannot detect when the cache is
thrashing pathologically, or when we're in the middle of a swap storm.

The high seek cost of rotational drives under which the algorithm evolved
also meant that mistakes could quickly result in lockups from too
aggressive swapping (which is predominantly random IO).  As a result, the
balancing code has been tuned over time to a point where it mostly goes
for page cache and defers swapping until the VM is under significant
memory pressure.

The resulting strategy doesn't make optimal caching decisions - where
optimal is the least amount of IO required to execute the workload.

The proliferation of fast random IO devices such as SSDs, in-memory
compression such as zswap, and persistent memory technologies on the
horizon, has made this undesirable behavior very noticable: Even in the
presence of large amounts of cold anonymous memory and a capable swap
device, the VM refuses to even seriously scan these pages, and can leave
the page cache thrashing needlessly.

This series sets out to address this.  Since commit ("a528910e12ec mm:
thrash detection-based file cache sizing") we have exact tracking of
refault IO - the ultimate cost of reclaiming the wrong pages.  This allows
us to use an IO cost based balancing model that is more aggressive about
scanning anonymous memory when the cache is thrashing, while being able to
avoid unnecessary swap storms.

These patches base the LRU balance on the rate of refaults on each list,
times the relative IO cost between swap device and filesystem
(swappiness), in order to optimize reclaim for least IO cost incurred.

	History

I floated these changes in 2016.  At the time they were incomplete and
full of workarounds due to a lack of infrastructure in the reclaim code:
We didn't have PageWorkingset, we didn't have hierarchical cgroup
statistics, and problems with the cgroup swap controller.  As swapping
wasn't too high a priority then, the patches stalled out.  With all
dependencies in place now, here we are again with much cleaner,
feature-complete patches.

I kept the acks for patches that stayed materially the same :-)

Below is a series of test results that demonstrate certain problematic
behavior of the current code, as well as showcase the new code's more
predictable and appropriate balancing decisions.

	Test #1: No convergence

This test shows an edge case where the VM currently doesn't converge at
all on a new file workingset with a stale anon/tmpfs set.

The test sets up a cold anon set the size of 3/4 RAM, then tries to
establish a new file set half the size of RAM (flat access pattern).

The vanilla kernel refuses to even scan anon pages and never converges.
The file set is perpetually served from the filesystem.

The first test kernel is with the series up to the workingset patch
applied.  This allows thrashing page cache to challenge the anonymous
workingset.  The VM then scans the lists based on the current
scanned/rotated balancing algorithm.  It converges on a stable state where
all cold anon pages are pushed out and the fileset is served entirely from
cache:

			    noconverge/5.7-rc5-mm	noconverge/5.7-rc5-mm-workingset
Scanned			417719308.00 (    +0.00%)		64091155.00 (   -84.66%)
Reclaimed		417711094.00 (    +0.00%)		61640308.00 (   -85.24%)
Reclaim efficiency %	      100.00 (    +0.00%)		      96.18 (    -3.78%)
Scanned file		417719308.00 (    +0.00%)		59211118.00 (   -85.83%)
Scanned anon			0.00 (    +0.00%)	         4880037.00 (          )
Swapouts			0.00 (    +0.00%)	         2439957.00 (          )
Swapins				0.00 (    +0.00%)		     257.00 (          )
Refaults		415246605.00 (    +0.00%)		59183722.00 (   -85.75%)
Restore refaults		0.00 (    +0.00%)	        54988252.00 (          )

The second test kernel is with the full patch series applied, which
replaces the scanned/rotated ratios with refault/swapin rate-based
balancing.  It evicts the cold anon pages more aggressively in the
presence of a thrashing cache and the absence of swapins, and so converges
with about 60% of the IO and reclaim activity:

			noconverge/5.7-rc5-mm-workingset	noconverge/5.7-rc5-mm-lrubalance
Scanned				64091155.00 (    +0.00%)		37579741.00 (   -41.37%)
Reclaimed			61640308.00 (    +0.00%)		35129293.00 (   -43.01%)
Reclaim efficiency %		      96.18 (    +0.00%)		      93.48 (    -2.78%)
Scanned file			59211118.00 (    +0.00%)		32708385.00 (   -44.76%)
Scanned anon			 4880037.00 (    +0.00%)		 4871356.00 (    -0.18%)
Swapouts			 2439957.00 (    +0.00%)		 2435565.00 (    -0.18%)
Swapins				     257.00 (    +0.00%)		     262.00 (    +1.94%)
Refaults			59183722.00 (    +0.00%)		32675667.00 (   -44.79%)
Restore refaults		54988252.00 (    +0.00%)		28480430.00 (   -48.21%)

We're triggering this case in host sideloading scenarios: When a host's
primary workload is not saturating the machine (primary load is usually
driven by user activity), we can optimistically sideload a batch job; if
user activity picks up and the primary workload needs the whole host
during this time, we freeze the sideload and rely on it getting pushed to
swap.  Frequently that swapping doesn't happen and the completely inactive
sideload simply stays resident while the expanding primary worklad is
struggling to gain ground.

	Test #2: Kernel build

This test is a a kernel build that is slightly memory-restricted (make -j4
inside a 400M cgroup).

Despite the very aggressive swapping of cold anon pages in test #1, this
test shows that the new kernel carefully balances swap against cache
refaults when both the file and the cache set are pressured.

It shows the patched kernel to be slightly better at finding the coldest
memory from the combined anon and file set to evict under pressure.  The
result is lower aggregate reclaim and paging activity:

z				    5.7-rc5-mm	5.7-rc5-mm-lrubalance
Real time		   210.60 (    +0.00%)	   210.97 (    +0.18%)

Swapouts		185920.00 (    +0.00%)	147801.00 (   -20.50%)
Swapins			 34583.00 (    +0.00%)	 32491.00 (    -6.05%)
Refaults		212664.00 (    +0.00%)	172409.00 (   -18.93%)
Restore refaults	 48861.00 (    +0.00%)	 80091.00 (   +63.91%)
Total paging IO		433167.00 (    +0.00%)	352701.00 (   -18.58%)

	Test #3: Overload

This next test is not about performance, but rather about the
predictability of the algorithm.  The current balancing behavior doesn't
always lead to comprehensible results, which makes performance analysis
and parameter tuning (swappiness e.g.) very difficult.

The test shows the balancing behavior under equivalent anon and file
input.  Anon and file sets are created of equal size (3/4 RAM), have the
same access patterns (a hot-cold gradient), and synchronized access rates.
Swappiness is raised from the default of 60 to 100 to indicate equal IO
cost between swap and cache.

With the vanilla balancing code, anon scans make up around 9% of the total
pages scanned, or a ~1:10 ratio.  This is a surprisingly skewed ratio, and
it's an outcome that is hard to explain given the input parameters to the
VM.

The new balancing model targets a 1:2 balance: All else being equal,
reclaiming a file page costs one page IO - the refault; reclaiming an anon
page costs two IOs - the swapout and the swapin.  In the test we observe a
~1:3 balance.

The scanned and paging IO numbers indicate that the anon LRU algorithm we
have in place right now does a slightly worse job at picking the coldest
pages compared to the file algorithm.  There is ongoing work to improve
this, like Joonsoo's anon workingset patches; however, it's difficult to
compare the two aging strategies when the balancing between them is
behaving unintuitively.

The slightly less efficient anon reclaim results in a deviation from the
optimal 1:2 scan ratio we would like to see here - however, 1:3 is much
closer to what we'd want to see in this test than the vanilla kernel's
aging of 10+ cache pages for every anonymous one:

			overload-100/5.7-rc5-mm-workingset	overload-100/5.7-rc5-mm-lrubalance-realfile

	Test #4: Parallel IO

It's important to note that these patches only affect the situation where
the kernel has to reclaim workingset memory, which is usually a
transitionary period.  The vast majority of page reclaim occuring in a
system is from trimming the ever-expanding page cache.

These patches don't affect cache trimming behavior.  We never swap as long
as we only have use-once cache moving through the file LRU, we only
consider swapping when the cache is actively thrashing.

The following test demonstrates this.  It has an anon workingset that
takes up half of RAM and then writes a file that is twice the size of RAM
out to disk.

As the cache is funneled through the inactive file list, no anon pages are
scanned (aside from apparently some background noise of 10 pages):

					  5.7-rc5-mm		          5.7-rc5-mm-lrubalance
Scanned			    10714722.00 (    +0.00%)		       10723445.00 (    +0.08%)
Reclaimed		    10703596.00 (    +0.00%)		       10712166.00 (    +0.08%)
Reclaim efficiency %		  99.90 (    +0.00%)			     99.89 (    -0.00%)
Scanned file		    10714722.00 (    +0.00%)		       10723435.00 (    +0.08%)
Scanned anon			   0.00 (    +0.00%)			     10.00 (          )
Swapouts			   0.00 (    +0.00%)			      7.00 (          )
Swapins				   0.00 (    +0.00%)			      0.00 (    +0.00%)
Refaults			  92.00 (    +0.00%)			     41.00 (   -54.84%)
Restore refaults		   0.00 (    +0.00%)			      0.00 (    +0.00%)
Total paging IO			  92.00 (    +0.00%)			     48.00 (   -47.31%)

This patch (of 14):

Currently, THP are counted as single pages until they are split right
before being swapped out.  However, at that point the VM is already in the
middle of reclaim, and adjusting the LRU balance then is useless.

Always account THP by the number of basepages, and remove the fixup from
the splitting path.

b01b214199 mm/swap: Use local_lock for protection
The various struct pagevec per CPU variables are protected by disabling
either preemption or interrupts across the critical sections. Inside
these sections spinlocks have to be acquired.

These spinlocks are regular spinlock_t types which are converted to
"sleeping" spinlocks on PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels. Obviously sleeping
locks cannot be acquired in preemption or interrupt disabled sections.

local locks provide a trivial way to substitute preempt and interrupt
disable instances. On a non PREEMPT_RT enabled kernel local_lock() maps
to preempt_disable() and local_lock_irq() to local_irq_disable().

Create lru_rotate_pvecs containing the pagevec and the locallock.
Create lru_pvecs containing the remaining pagevecs and the locallock.
Add lru_add_drain_cpu_zone() which is used from compact_zone() to avoid
exporting the pvec structure.

Change the relevant call sites to acquire these locks instead of using
preempt_disable() / get_cpu() / get_cpu_var() and local_irq_disable() /
local_irq_save().

There is neither a functional change nor a change in the generated
binary code for non PREEMPT_RT enabled non-debug kernels.

When lockdep is enabled local locks have lockdep maps embedded. These
allow lockdep to validate the protections, i.e. inappropriate usage of a
preemption only protected sections would result in a lockdep warning
while the same problem would not be noticed with a plain
preempt_disable() based protection.

local locks also improve readability as they provide a named scope for
the protections while preempt/interrupt disable are opaque scopeless.

Finally local locks allow PREEMPT_RT to substitute them with real
locking primitives to ensure the correctness of operation in a fully
preemptible kernel.

71725ed10c mm: huge tmpfs: try to split_huge_page() when punching hole
Yang Shi writes:

Currently, when truncating a shmem file, if the range is partly in a THP
(start or end is in the middle of THP), the pages actually will just get
cleared rather than being freed, unless the range covers the whole THP.
Even though all the subpages are truncated (randomly or sequentially), the
THP may still be kept in page cache.

This might be fine for some usecases which prefer preserving THP, but
balloon inflation is handled in base page size.  So when using shmem THP
as memory backend, QEMU inflation actually doesn't work as expected since
it doesn't free memory.  But the inflation usecase really needs to get the
memory freed.  (Anonymous THP will also not get freed right away, but will
be freed eventually when all subpages are unmapped: whereas shmem THP
still stays in page cache.)

Split THP right away when doing partial hole punch, and if split fails
just clear the page so that read of the punched area will return zeroes.

Hugh Dickins adds:

Our earlier "team of pages" huge tmpfs implementation worked in the way
that Yang Shi proposes; and we have been using this patch to continue to
split the huge page when hole-punched or truncated, since converting over
to the compound page implementation.  Although huge tmpfs gives out huge
pages when available, if the user specifically asks to truncate or punch a
hole (perhaps to free memory, perhaps to reduce the memcg charge), then
the filesystem should do so as best it can, splitting the huge page.

That is not always possible: any additional reference to the huge page
prevents split_huge_page() from succeeding, so the result can be flaky.
But in practice it works successfully enough that we've not seen any
problem from that.

Add shmem_punch_compound() to encapsulate the decision of when a split is
needed, and doing the split if so.  Using this simplifies the flow in
shmem_undo_range(); and the first (trylock) pass does not need to do any
page clearing on failure, because the second pass will either succeed or
do that clearing.  Following the example of zero_user_segment() when
clearing a partial page, add flush_dcache_page() and set_page_dirty() when
clearing a hole - though I'm not certain that either is needed.

But: split_huge_page() would be sure to fail if shmem_undo_range()'s
pagevec holds further references to the huge page.  The easiest way to fix
that is for find_get_entries() to return early, as soon as it has put one
compound head or tail into the pagevec.  At first this felt like a hack;
but on examination, this convention better suits all its callers - or will
do, if the slight one-page-per-pagevec slowdown in shmem_unlock_mapping()
and shmem_seek_hole_data() is transformed into a 512-page-per-pagevec
speedup by checking for compound pages there.

9a9b6cce63 mm: swap: use smp_mb__after_atomic() to order LRU bit set
Memory barrier is needed after setting LRU bit, but smp_mb() is too
strong.  Some architectures, i.e.  x86, imply memory barrier with atomic
operations, so replacing it with smp_mb__after_atomic() sounds better,
which is nop on strong ordered machines, and full memory barriers on

07d8026995 mm: devmap: refactor 1-based refcounting for ZONE_DEVICE pages
An upcoming patch changes and complicates the refcounting and especially
the "put page" aspects of it.  In order to keep everything clean,
refactor the devmap page release routines:

* Rename put_devmap_managed_page() to page_is_devmap_managed(), and
  limit the functionality to "read only": return a bool, with no side
  effects.

* Add a new routine, put_devmap_managed_page(), to handle decrementing
  the refcount for ZONE_DEVICE pages.

* Change callers (just release_pages() and put_page()) to check
  page_is_devmap_managed() before calling the new
  put_devmap_managed_page() routine.  This is a performance point:
  put_page() is a hot path, so we need to avoid non- inline function calls
  where possible.

* Rename __put_devmap_managed_page() to free_devmap_managed_page(), and
  limit the functionality to unconditionally freeing a devmap page.

This is originally based on a separate patch by Ira Weiny, which applied
to an early version of the put_user_page() experiments.  Since then,
Jérôme Glisse suggested the refactoring described above.

eef1a429f2 mm/swap.c: piggyback lru_add_drain_all() calls
This is a very slow operation.  Right now POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED is the top
user because it has to freeze page references when removing it from the
cache.  invalidate_bdev() calls it for the same reason.  Both are
triggered from userspace, so it's easy to generate a storm.

mlock/mlockall no longer calls lru_add_drain_all - I've seen here
serious slowdown on older kernels.

There are some less obvious paths in memory migration/CMA/offlining
which shouldn't call frequently.

The worst case requires a non-trivial workload because
lru_add_drain_all() skips cpus where vectors are empty.  Something must
constantly generate a flow of pages for each cpu.  Also cpus must be
busy to make scheduling per-cpu works slower.  And the machine must be
big enough (64+ cpus in our case).

In our case that was a massive series of mlock calls in map-reduce while
other tasks write logs (and generates flows of new pages in per-cpu
vectors).  Mlock calls were serialized by mutex and accumulated latency
up to 10 seconds or more.

The kernel does not call lru_add_drain_all on mlock paths since 4.15,
but the same scenario could be triggered by fadvise(POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED)
or any other remaining user.

There is no reason to do the drain again if somebody else already
drained all the per-cpu vectors while we waited for the lock.

Piggyback on a drain starting and finishing while we wait for the lock:
all pages pending at the time of our entry were drained from the
vectors.

Callers like POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED retry their operations once after
draining per-cpu vectors when pages have unexpected references.

9c276cc65a mm: introduce MADV_COLD
Patch series "Introduce MADV_COLD and MADV_PAGEOUT", v7.

- Background

The Android terminology used for forking a new process and starting an app
from scratch is a cold start, while resuming an existing app is a hot
start.  While we continually try to improve the performance of cold
starts, hot starts will always be significantly less power hungry as well
as faster so we are trying to make hot start more likely than cold start.

To increase hot start, Android userspace manages the order that apps
should be killed in a process called ActivityManagerService.
ActivityManagerService tracks every Android app or service that the user
could be interacting with at any time and translates that into a ranked
list for lmkd(low memory killer daemon).  They are likely to be killed by
lmkd if the system has to reclaim memory.  In that sense they are similar
to entries in any other cache.  Those apps are kept alive for
opportunistic performance improvements but those performance improvements
will vary based on the memory requirements of individual workloads.

- Problem

Naturally, cached apps were dominant consumers of memory on the system.
However, they were not significant consumers of swap even though they are
good candidate for swap.  Under investigation, swapping out only begins
once the low zone watermark is hit and kswapd wakes up, but the overall
allocation rate in the system might trip lmkd thresholds and cause a
cached process to be killed(we measured performance swapping out vs.
zapping the memory by killing a process.  Unsurprisingly, zapping is 10x
times faster even though we use zram which is much faster than real
storage) so kill from lmkd will often satisfy the high zone watermark,
resulting in very few pages actually being moved to swap.

- Approach

The approach we chose was to use a new interface to allow userspace to
proactively reclaim entire processes by leveraging platform information.
This allowed us to bypass the inaccuracy of the kernel’s LRUs for pages
that are known to be cold from userspace and to avoid races with lmkd by
reclaiming apps as soon as they entered the cached state.  Additionally,
it could provide many chances for platform to use much information to
optimize memory efficiency.

To achieve the goal, the patchset introduce two new options for madvise.
One is MADV_COLD which will deactivate activated pages and the other is
MADV_PAGEOUT which will reclaim private pages instantly.  These new
options complement MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE by adding non-destructive
ways to gain some free memory space.  MADV_PAGEOUT is similar to
MADV_DONTNEED in a way that it hints the kernel that memory region is not
currently needed and should be reclaimed immediately; MADV_COLD is similar
to MADV_FREE in a way that it hints the kernel that memory region is not
currently needed and should be reclaimed when memory pressure rises.

This patch (of 5):

When a process expects no accesses to a certain memory range, it could
give a hint to kernel that the pages can be reclaimed when memory pressure
happens but data should be preserved for future use.  This could reduce
workingset eviction so it ends up increasing performance.

This patch introduces the new MADV_COLD hint to madvise(2) syscall.
MADV_COLD can be used by a process to mark a memory range as not expected
to be used in the near future.  The hint can help kernel in deciding which
pages to evict early during memory pressure.

It works for every LRU pages like MADV_[DONTNEED|FREE]. IOW, It moves

	active file page -> inactive file LRU
	active anon page -> inacdtive anon LRU

Unlike MADV_FREE, it doesn't move active anonymous pages to inactive file
LRU's head because MADV_COLD is a little bit different symantic.
MADV_FREE means it's okay to discard when the memory pressure because the
content of the page is *garbage* so freeing such pages is almost zero
overhead since we don't need to swap out and access afterward causes just
minor fault.  Thus, it would make sense to put those freeable pages in
inactive file LRU to compete other used-once pages.  It makes sense for
implmentaion point of view, too because it's not swapbacked memory any
longer until it would be re-dirtied.  Even, it could give a bonus to make
them be reclaimed on swapless system.  However, MADV_COLD doesn't mean
garbage so reclaiming them requires swap-out/in in the end so it's bigger
cost.  Since we have designed VM LRU aging based on cost-model, anonymous
cold pages would be better to position inactive anon's LRU list, not file
LRU.  Furthermore, it would help to avoid unnecessary scanning if system
doesn't have a swap device.  Let's start simpler way without adding
complexity at this moment.  However, keep in mind, too that it's a caveat
that workloads with a lot of pages cache are likely to ignore MADV_COLD on
anonymous memory because we rarely age anonymous LRU lists.

* man-page material

MADV_COLD (since Linux x.x)

Pages in the specified regions will be treated as less-recently-accessed
compared to pages in the system with similar access frequencies.  In
contrast to MADV_FREE, the contents of the region are preserved regardless
of subsequent writes to pages.

MADV_COLD cannot be applied to locked pages, Huge TLB pages, or VM_PFNMAP
pages.

So move mem_cgroup_uncharge() from __page_cache_release() to compound page
destructor, which is called by both THP and other compound pages except
HugeTLB.  And call it in __put_single_page() for single order page.

c5d6c45e90 mm/swap: fix release_pages() when releasing devmap pages
release_pages() is an optimized version of a loop around put_page().
Unfortunately for devmap pages the logic is not entirely correct in
release_pages().  This is because device pages can be more than type
MEMORY_DEVICE_PUBLIC.  There are in fact 4 types, private, public, FS DAX,
and PCI P2PDMA.  Some of these have specific needs to "put" the page while
others do not.

This logic to handle any special needs is contained in
put_devmap_managed_page().  Therefore all devmap pages should be processed
by this function where we can contain the correct logic for a page put.

Handle all device type pages within release_pages() by calling
put_devmap_managed_page() on all devmap pages.  If
put_devmap_managed_page() returns true the page has been put and we
continue with the next page.  A false return of put_devmap_managed_page()
means the page did not require special processing and should fall to
"normal" processing.

This was found via code inspection while determining if release_pages()
and the new put_user_pages() could be interchangeable.[1]

Which is silly, because it unfolds to this:
	&NODE_DATA(page_to_nid(page))->node_zones[page_zonenum(page)]->zone_pgdat->lru_lock
while we can simply do
	&NODE_DATA(page_to_nid(page))->lru_lock

Remove zone_lru_lock() function, since it's only complicate things.  Use
'page_pgdat(page)->lru_lock' pattern instead.

6ea183d60c mm: handle lru_add_drain_all for UP properly
Since for_each_cpu(cpu, mask) added by commit 2d3854a37e
("cpumask: introduce new API, without changing anything") did not
evaluate the mask argument if NR_CPUS == 1 due to CONFIG_SMP=n,
lru_add_drain_all() is hitting WARN_ON() at __flush_work() added by
commit 4d43d395fe ("workqueue: Try to catch flush_work() without
INIT_WORK().") by unconditionally calling flush_work() [1].

Workaround this issue by using CONFIG_SMP=n specific lru_add_drain_all
implementation.  There is no real need to defer the implementation to
the workqueue as the draining is going to happen on the local cpu.  So
alias lru_add_drain_all to lru_add_drain which does all the necessary
work.

Pull XArray conversion from Matthew Wilcox:
 "The XArray provides an improved interface to the radix tree data

   1. Introduces the XArray implementation

   2. Converts the pagecache to use it

   3. Converts memremap to use it

  The page cache is the most complex and important user of the radix
  tree, so converting it was most important. Converting the memremap
  code removes the only other user of the multiorder code, which allows
  us to remove the radix tree code that supported it.

  I have 40+ followup patches to convert many other users of the radix
  tree over to the XArray, but I'd like to get this part in first. The
  other conversions haven't been in linux-next and aren't suitable for
  applying yet, but you can see them in the xarray-conv branch if you're

dev_pagemap managed page is freed. Since a dev_pagemap page is free /
idle when its reference count is 1 it requires an additional branch to
check the page-type at put_page() time. Given put_page() is a hot-path
we do not want to incur that check if HMM is not in use, so a static
branch is used to avoid that overhead when not necessary.

Now, the FS_DAX implementation wants to reuse this mechanism for
receiving dev_pagemap ->page_free() callbacks. Rework the HMM-specific
static-key into a generic mechanism that either HMM or FS_DAX code paths
can enable.

For ARCH=um builds, and any other arch that lacks ZONE_DEVICE support,
care must be taken to compile out the DEV_PAGEMAP_OPS infrastructure.
However, we still need to support FS_DAX in the FS_DAX_LIMITED case
implemented by the s390/dcssblk driver.

002843de36 mm/swap.c: remove @cold parameter description for release_pages()
The 'cold' parameter was removed from release_pages function by commit
c6f92f9fbe ("mm: remove cold parameter for release_pages").

Update the description to match the code.

cb6f0f3480 mm/swap.c: make functions and their kernel-doc agree (again)
There was a conflict between the commit e02a9f048e ("mm/swap.c: make
functions and their kernel-doc agree") and the commit f144c390f9 ("mm:
docs: fix parameter names mismatch") that both tried to fix mismatch
betweeen pagevec_lookup_entries() parameter names and their description.

Since nr_entries is a better name for the parameter, fix the description
again.

9c4e6b1a70 mm, mlock, vmscan: no more skipping pagevecs
When a thread mlocks an address space backed either by file pages which
are currently not present in memory or swapped out anon pages (not in
swapcache), a new page is allocated and added to the local pagevec
(lru_add_pvec), I/O is triggered and the thread then sleeps on the page.
On I/O completion, the thread can wake on a different CPU, the mlock
syscall will then sets the PageMlocked() bit of the page but will not be
able to put that page in unevictable LRU as the page is on the pagevec
of a different CPU.  Even on drain, that page will go to evictable LRU
because the PageMlocked() bit is not checked on pagevec drain.

The page will eventually go to right LRU on reclaim but the LRU stats
will remain skewed for a long time.

This patch puts all the pages, even unevictable, to the pagevecs and on
the drain, the pages will be added on their LRUs correctly by checking
their evictability.  This resolves the mlocked pages on pagevec of other
CPUs issue because when those pagevecs will be drained, the mlocked file
pages will go to unevictable LRU.  Also this makes the race with munlock
easier to resolve because the pagevec drains happen in LRU lock.

However there is still one place which makes a page evictable and does
PageLRU check on that page without LRU lock and needs special attention.
TestClearPageMlocked() and isolate_lru_page() in clear_page_mlock().

	#0: __pagevec_lru_add_fn	#1: clear_page_mlock

	SetPageLRU()			if (!TestClearPageMlocked())
					  return
	smp_mb() // <--required
					// inside does PageLRU
	if (!PageMlocked())		if (isolate_lru_page())
	  move to evictable LRU		  putback_lru_page()
	else
	  move to unevictable LRU

In '#1', TestClearPageMlocked() provides full memory barrier semantics
and thus the PageLRU check (inside isolate_lru_page) can not be
reordered before it.

In '#0', without explicit memory barrier, the PageMlocked() check can be
reordered before SetPageLRU().  If that happens, '#0' can put a page in
unevictable LRU and '#1' might have just cleared the Mlocked bit of that
page but fails to isolate as PageLRU fails as '#0' still hasn't set
PageLRU bit of that page.  That page will be stranded on the unevictable
LRU.

There is one (good) side effect though.  Without this patch, the pages
allocated for System V shared memory segment are added to evictable LRUs
even after shmctl(SHM_LOCK) on that segment.  This patch will correctly
put such pages to unevictable LRU.
