[PATCH] sparsemem memory model
Sparsemem abstracts the use of discontiguous mem_maps[]. This kind of
mem_map[] is needed by discontiguous memory machines (like in the old
CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM case) as well as memory hotplug systems. Sparsemem
replaces DISCONTIGMEM when enabled, and it is hoped that it can eventually
become a complete replacement.
A significant advantage over DISCONTIGMEM is that it's completely separated
from CONFIG_NUMA. When producing this patch, it became apparent in that NUMA
and DISCONTIG are often confused.
Another advantage is that sparse doesn't require each NUMA node's ranges to be
contiguous. It can handle overlapping ranges between nodes with no problems,
where DISCONTIGMEM currently throws away that memory.
Sparsemem uses an array to provide different pfn_to_page() translations for
each SECTION_SIZE area of physical memory. This is what allows the mem_map[]
to be chopped up.
In order to do quick pfn_to_page() operations, the section number of the page
is encoded in page->flags. Part of the sparsemem infrastructure enables
sharing of these bits more dynamically (at compile-time) between the
page_zone() and sparsemem operations. However, on 32-bit architectures, the
number of bits is quite limited, and may require growing the size of the
page->flags type in certain conditions. Several things might force this to
occur: a decrease in the SECTION_SIZE (if you want to hotplug smaller areas of
memory), an increase in the physical address space, or an increase in the
number of used page->flags.
One thing to note is that, once sparsemem is present, the NUMA node
information no longer needs to be stored in the page->flags. It might provide
speed increases on certain platforms and will be stored there if there is
room. But, if out of room, an alternate (theoretically slower) mechanism is
used.
This patch introduces CONFIG_FLATMEM. It is used in almost all cases where
there used to be an #ifndef DISCONTIG, because SPARSEMEM and DISCONTIGMEM
often have to compile out the same areas of code.

[PATCH] mm: split page table lock
Christoph Lameter demonstrated very poor scalability on the SGI 512-way, with
a many-threaded application which concurrently initializes different parts of
a large anonymous area.
This patch corrects that, by using a separate spinlock per page table page, to
guard the page table entries in that page, instead of using the mm's single
page_table_lock. (But even then, page_table_lock is still used to guard page
table allocation, and anon_vma allocation.)
In this implementation, the spinlock is tucked inside the struct page of the
page table page: with a BUILD_BUG_ON in case it overflows - which it would in
the case of 32-bit PA-RISC with spinlock debugging enabled.
Splitting the lock is not quite for free: another cacheline access. Ideally,
I suppose we would use split ptlock only for multi-threaded processes on
multi-cpu machines; but deciding that dynamically would have its own costs.
So for now enable it by config, at some number of cpus - since the Kconfig
language doesn't support inequalities, let preprocessor compare that with
NR_CPUS. But I don't think it's worth being user-configurable: for good
testing of both split and unsplit configs, split now at 4 cpus, and perhaps
change that to 8 later.
There is a benefit even for singly threaded processes: kswapd can be attacking
one part of the mm while another part is busy faulting.

kernel/resource: disallow access to exclusive system RAM regions
virtio-mem dynamically exposes memory inside a device memory region as
system RAM to Linux, coordinating with the hypervisor which parts are
actually "plugged" and consequently usable/accessible.
On the one hand, the virtio-mem driver adds/removes whole memory blocks,
creating/removing busy IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM resources, on the other
hand, it logically (un)plugs memory inside added memory blocks,
dynamically either exposing them to the buddy or hiding them from the
buddy and marking them PG_offline.
In contrast to physical devices, like a DIMM, the virtio-mem driver is
required to actually make use of any of the device-provided memory,
because it performs the handshake with the hypervisor. virtio-mem
memory cannot simply be access via /dev/mem without a driver.
There is no safe way to:
a) Access plugged memory blocks via /dev/mem, as they might contain
unplugged holes or might get silently unplugged by the virtio-mem
driver and consequently turned inaccessible.
b) Access unplugged memory blocks via /dev/mem because the virtio-mem
driver is required to make them actually accessible first.
The virtio-spec states that unplugged memory blocks MUST NOT be written,
and only selected unplugged memory blocks MAY be read. We want to make
sure, this is the case in sane environments -- where the virtio-mem driver
was loaded.
We want to make sure that in a sane environment, nobody "accidentially"
accesses unplugged memory inside the device managed region. For example,
a user might spot a memory region in /proc/iomem and try accessing it via
/dev/mem via gdb or dumping it via something else. By the time the mmap()
happens, the memory might already have been removed by the virtio-mem
driver silently: the mmap() would succeeed and user space might
accidentially access unplugged memory.
So once the driver was loaded and detected the device along the
device-managed region, we just want to disallow any access via /dev/mem to
it.
In an ideal world, we would mark the whole region as busy ("owned by a
driver") and exclude it; however, that would be wrong, as we don't really
have actual system RAM at these ranges added to Linux ("busy system RAM").
Instead, we want to mark such ranges as "not actual busy system RAM but
still soft-reserved and prepared by a driver for future use."
Let's teach iomem_is_exclusive() to reject access to any range with
"IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM | IORESOURCE_EXCLUSIVE", even if not busy and even
if "iomem=relaxed" is set. Introduce EXCLUSIVE_SYSTEM_RAM to make it
easier for applicable drivers to depend on this setting in their Kconfig.
For now, there are no applicable ranges and we'll modify virtio-mem next
to properly set IORESOURCE_EXCLUSIVE on the parent resource container it
creates to contain all actual busy system RAM added via
add_memory_driver_managed().

mm,memory_hotplug: allocate memmap from the added memory range
Physical memory hotadd has to allocate a memmap (struct page array) for
the newly added memory section. Currently, alloc_pages_node() is used
for those allocations.
This has some disadvantages:
a) an existing memory is consumed for that purpose
(eg: ~2MB per 128MB memory section on x86_64)
This can even lead to extreme cases where system goes OOM because
the physically hotplugged memory depletes the available memory before
it is onlined.
b) if the whole node is movable then we have off-node struct pages
which has performance drawbacks.
c) It might be there are no PMD_ALIGNED chunks so memmap array gets
populated with base pages.
This can be improved when CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is enabled.
Vmemap page tables can map arbitrary memory. That means that we can
reserve a part of the physically hotadded memory to back vmemmap page
tables. This implementation uses the beginning of the hotplugged memory
for that purpose.
There are some non-obviously things to consider though.
Vmemmap pages are allocated/freed during the memory hotplug events
(add_memory_resource(), try_remove_memory()) when the memory is
added/removed. This means that the reserved physical range is not
online although it is used. The most obvious side effect is that
pfn_to_online_page() returns NULL for those pfns. The current design
expects that this should be OK as the hotplugged memory is considered a
garbage until it is onlined. For example hibernation wouldn't save the
content of those vmmemmaps into the image so it wouldn't be restored on
resume but this should be OK as there no real content to recover anyway
while metadata is reachable from other data structures (e.g. vmemmap
page tables).
The reserved space is therefore (de)initialized during the {on,off}line
events (mhp_{de}init_memmap_on_memory). That is done by extracting page
allocator independent initialization from the regular onlining path.
The primary reason to handle the reserved space outside of
{on,off}line_pages is to make each initialization specific to the
purpose rather than special case them in a single function.
As per above, the functions that are introduced are:
- mhp_init_memmap_on_memory:
Initializes vmemmap pages by calling move_pfn_range_to_zone(), calls
kasan_add_zero_shadow(), and onlines as many sections as vmemmap pages
fully span.
- mhp_deinit_memmap_on_memory:
Offlines as many sections as vmemmap pages fully span, removes the
range from zhe zone by remove_pfn_range_from_zone(), and calls
kasan_remove_zero_shadow() for the range.
The new function memory_block_online() calls mhp_init_memmap_on_memory()
before doing the actual online_pages(). Should online_pages() fail, we
clean up by calling mhp_deinit_memmap_on_memory(). Adjusting of
present_pages is done at the end once we know that online_pages()
succedeed.
On offline, memory_block_offline() needs to unaccount vmemmap pages from
present_pages() before calling offline_pages(). This is necessary because
offline_pages() tears down some structures based on the fact whether the
node or the zone become empty. If offline_pages() fails, we account back
vmemmap pages. If it succeeds, we call mhp_deinit_memmap_on_memory().
Hot-remove:
We need to be careful when removing memory, as adding and
removing memory needs to be done with the same granularity.
To check that this assumption is not violated, we check the
memory range we want to remove and if a) any memory block has
vmemmap pages and b) the range spans more than a single memory
block, we scream out loud and refuse to proceed.
If all is good and the range was using memmap on memory (aka vmemmap pages),
we construct an altmap structure so free_hugepage_table does the right
thing and calls vmem_altmap_free instead of free_pagetable.

[PATCH] mm: split page table lock
Christoph Lameter demonstrated very poor scalability on the SGI 512-way, with
a many-threaded application which concurrently initializes different parts of
a large anonymous area.
This patch corrects that, by using a separate spinlock per page table page, to
guard the page table entries in that page, instead of using the mm's single
page_table_lock. (But even then, page_table_lock is still used to guard page
table allocation, and anon_vma allocation.)
In this implementation, the spinlock is tucked inside the struct page of the
page table page: with a BUILD_BUG_ON in case it overflows - which it would in
the case of 32-bit PA-RISC with spinlock debugging enabled.
Splitting the lock is not quite for free: another cacheline access. Ideally,
I suppose we would use split ptlock only for multi-threaded processes on
multi-cpu machines; but deciding that dynamically would have its own costs.
So for now enable it by config, at some number of cpus - since the Kconfig
language doesn't support inequalities, let preprocessor compare that with
NR_CPUS. But I don't think it's worth being user-configurable: for good
testing of both split and unsplit configs, split now at 4 cpus, and perhaps
change that to 8 later.
There is a benefit even for singly threaded processes: kswapd can be attacking
one part of the mm while another part is busy faulting.

mmu-notifiers: core
With KVM/GFP/XPMEM there isn't just the primary CPU MMU pointing to pages.
There are secondary MMUs (with secondary sptes and secondary tlbs) too.
sptes in the kvm case are shadow pagetables, but when I say spte in
mmu-notifier context, I mean "secondary pte". In GRU case there's no
actual secondary pte and there's only a secondary tlb because the GRU
secondary MMU has no knowledge about sptes and every secondary tlb miss
event in the MMU always generates a page fault that has to be resolved by
the CPU (this is not the case of KVM where the a secondary tlb miss will
walk sptes in hardware and it will refill the secondary tlb transparently
to software if the corresponding spte is present). The same way
zap_page_range has to invalidate the pte before freeing the page, the spte
(and secondary tlb) must also be invalidated before any page is freed and
reused.
Currently we take a page_count pin on every page mapped by sptes, but that
means the pages can't be swapped whenever they're mapped by any spte
because they're part of the guest working set. Furthermore a spte unmap
event can immediately lead to a page to be freed when the pin is released
(so requiring the same complex and relatively slow tlb_gather smp safe
logic we have in zap_page_range and that can be avoided completely if the
spte unmap event doesn't require an unpin of the page previously mapped in
the secondary MMU).
The mmu notifiers allow kvm/GRU/XPMEM to attach to the tsk->mm and know
when the VM is swapping or freeing or doing anything on the primary MMU so
that the secondary MMU code can drop sptes before the pages are freed,
avoiding all page pinning and allowing 100% reliable swapping of guest
physical address space. Furthermore it avoids the code that teardown the
mappings of the secondary MMU, to implement a logic like tlb_gather in
zap_page_range that would require many IPI to flush other cpu tlbs, for
each fixed number of spte unmapped.
To make an example: if what happens on the primary MMU is a protection
downgrade (from writeable to wrprotect) the secondary MMU mappings will be
invalidated, and the next secondary-mmu-page-fault will call
get_user_pages and trigger a do_wp_page through get_user_pages if it
called get_user_pages with write=1, and it'll re-establishing an updated
spte or secondary-tlb-mapping on the copied page. Or it will setup a
readonly spte or readonly tlb mapping if it's a guest-read, if it calls
get_user_pages with write=0. This is just an example.
This allows to map any page pointed by any pte (and in turn visible in the
primary CPU MMU), into a secondary MMU (be it a pure tlb like GRU, or an
full MMU with both sptes and secondary-tlb like the shadow-pagetable layer
with kvm), or a remote DMA in software like XPMEM (hence needing of
schedule in XPMEM code to send the invalidate to the remote node, while no
need to schedule in kvm/gru as it's an immediate event like invalidating
primary-mmu pte).
At least for KVM without this patch it's impossible to swap guests
reliably. And having this feature and removing the page pin allows
several other optimizations that simplify life considerably.
Dependencies:
1) mm_take_all_locks() to register the mmu notifier when the whole VM
isn't doing anything with "mm". This allows mmu notifier users to keep
track if the VM is in the middle of the invalidate_range_begin/end
critical section with an atomic counter incraese in range_begin and
decreased in range_end. No secondary MMU page fault is allowed to map
any spte or secondary tlb reference, while the VM is in the middle of
range_begin/end as any page returned by get_user_pages in that critical
section could later immediately be freed without any further
->invalidate_page notification (invalidate_range_begin/end works on
ranges and ->invalidate_page isn't called immediately before freeing
the page). To stop all page freeing and pagetable overwrites the
mmap_sem must be taken in write mode and all other anon_vma/i_mmap
locks must be taken too.
2) It'd be a waste to add branches in the VM if nobody could possibly
run KVM/GRU/XPMEM on the kernel, so mmu notifiers will only enabled if
CONFIG_KVM=m/y. In the current kernel kvm won't yet take advantage of
mmu notifiers, but this already allows to compile a KVM external module
against a kernel with mmu notifiers enabled and from the next pull from
kvm.git we'll start using them. And GRU/XPMEM will also be able to
continue the development by enabling KVM=m in their config, until they
submit all GRU/XPMEM GPLv2 code to the mainline kernel. Then they can
also enable MMU_NOTIFIERS in the same way KVM does it (even if KVM=n).
This guarantees nobody selects MMU_NOTIFIER=y if KVM and GRU and XPMEM
are all =n.
The mmu_notifier_register call can fail because mm_take_all_locks may be
interrupted by a signal and return -EINTR. Because mmu_notifier_reigster
is used when a driver startup, a failure can be gracefully handled. Here
an example of the change applied to kvm to register the mmu notifiers.
Usually when a driver startups other allocations are required anyway and
-ENOMEM failure paths exists already.
struct kvm *kvm_arch_create_vm(void)
{
struct kvm *kvm = kzalloc(sizeof(struct kvm), GFP_KERNEL);
+ int err;
if (!kvm)
return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM);
INIT_LIST_HEAD(&kvm->arch.active_mmu_pages);
+ kvm->arch.mmu_notifier.ops = &kvm_mmu_notifier_ops;
+ err = mmu_notifier_register(&kvm->arch.mmu_notifier, current->mm);
+ if (err) {
+ kfree(kvm);
+ return ERR_PTR(err);
+ }
+
return kvm;
}
mmu_notifier_unregister returns void and it's reliable.
The patch also adds a few needed but missing includes that would prevent
kernel to compile after these changes on non-x86 archs (x86 didn't need
them by luck).

mm/mmu_notifier: add an interval tree notifier
Of the 13 users of mmu_notifiers, 8 of them use only
invalidate_range_start/end() and immediately intersect the
mmu_notifier_range with some kind of internal list of VAs. 4 use an
interval tree (i915_gem, radeon_mn, umem_odp, hfi1). 4 use a linked list
of some kind (scif_dma, vhost, gntdev, hmm)
And the remaining 5 either don't use invalidate_range_start() or do some
special thing with it.
It turns out that building a correct scheme with an interval tree is
pretty complicated, particularly if the use case is synchronizing against
another thread doing get_user_pages(). Many of these implementations have
various subtle and difficult to fix races.
This approach puts the interval tree as common code at the top of the mmu
notifier call tree and implements a shareable locking scheme.
It includes:
- An interval tree tracking VA ranges, with per-range callbacks
- A read/write locking scheme for the interval tree that avoids
sleeping in the notifier path (for OOM killer)
- A sequence counter based collision-retry locking scheme to tell
device page fault that a VA range is being concurrently invalidated.
This is based on various ideas:
- hmm accumulates invalidated VA ranges and releases them when all
invalidates are done, via active_invalidate_ranges count.
This approach avoids having to intersect the interval tree twice (as
umem_odp does) at the potential cost of a longer device page fault.
- kvm/umem_odp use a sequence counter to drive the collision retry,
via invalidate_seq
- a deferred work todo list on unlock scheme like RTNL, via deferred_list.
This makes adding/removing interval tree members more deterministic
- seqlock, except this version makes the seqlock idea multi-holder on the
write side by protecting it with active_invalidate_ranges and a spinlock
To minimize MM overhead when only the interval tree is being used, the
entire SRCU and hlist overheads are dropped using some simple
branches. Similarly the interval tree overhead is dropped when in hlist
mode.
The overhead from the mandatory spinlock is broadly the same as most of
existing users which already had a lock (or two) of some sort on the
invalidation path.

allocator for chunks in 2^N*PAGE_SIZE amounts - which is frequently

more than it requires. To deal with this, mmap() is able to trim off

the excess and return it to the allocator.

if there are a lot of transient processes.
|

If trimming is disabled, the excess is kept, but not used, which for

long-term mappings means that the space is wasted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Trimming can be dynamically controlled through a sysctl option
|
|
|
|

(/proc/sys/vm/nr_trim_pages) which specifies the minimum number of

excess pages there must be before trimming should occur, or zero if
|

no trimming is to occur.
|
|

This option specifies the initial value of this option. The default

mm, THP, swap: delay splitting THP during swap out
Patch series "THP swap: Delay splitting THP during swapping out", v11.
This patchset is to optimize the performance of Transparent Huge Page
(THP) swap.
Recently, the performance of the storage devices improved so fast that
we cannot saturate the disk bandwidth with single logical CPU when do
page swap out even on a high-end server machine. Because the
performance of the storage device improved faster than that of single
logical CPU. And it seems that the trend will not change in the near
future. On the other hand, the THP becomes more and more popular
because of increased memory size. So it becomes necessary to optimize
THP swap performance.
The advantages of the THP swap support include:
- Batch the swap operations for the THP to reduce lock
acquiring/releasing, including allocating/freeing the swap space,
adding/deleting to/from the swap cache, and writing/reading the swap
space, etc. This will help improve the performance of the THP swap.
- The THP swap space read/write will be 2M sequential IO. It is
particularly helpful for the swap read, which are usually 4k random
IO. This will improve the performance of the THP swap too.
- It will help the memory fragmentation, especially when the THP is
heavily used by the applications. The 2M continuous pages will be
free up after THP swapping out.
- It will improve the THP utilization on the system with the swap
turned on. Because the speed for khugepaged to collapse the normal
pages into the THP is quite slow. After the THP is split during the
swapping out, it will take quite long time for the normal pages to
collapse back into the THP after being swapped in. The high THP
utilization helps the efficiency of the page based memory management
too.
There are some concerns regarding THP swap in, mainly because possible
enlarged read/write IO size (for swap in/out) may put more overhead on
the storage device. To deal with that, the THP swap in should be turned
on only when necessary. For example, it can be selected via
"always/never/madvise" logic, to be turned on globally, turned off
globally, or turned on only for VMA with MADV_HUGEPAGE, etc.
This patchset is the first step for the THP swap support. The plan is
to delay splitting THP step by step, finally avoid splitting THP during
the THP swapping out and swap out/in the THP as a whole.
As the first step, in this patchset, the splitting huge page is delayed
from almost the first step of swapping out to after allocating the swap
space for the THP and adding the THP into the swap cache. This will
reduce lock acquiring/releasing for the locks used for the swap cache
management.
With the patchset, the swap out throughput improves 15.5% (from about
3.73GB/s to about 4.31GB/s) in the vm-scalability swap-w-seq test case
with 8 processes. The test is done on a Xeon E5 v3 system. The swap
device used is a RAM simulated PMEM (persistent memory) device. To test
the sequential swapping out, the test case creates 8 processes, which
sequentially allocate and write to the anonymous pages until the RAM and
part of the swap device is used up.
This patch (of 5):
In this patch, splitting huge page is delayed from almost the first step
of swapping out to after allocating the swap space for the THP
(Transparent Huge Page) and adding the THP into the swap cache. This
will batch the corresponding operation, thus improve THP swap out
throughput.
This is the first step for the THP swap optimization. The plan is to
delay splitting the THP step by step and avoid splitting the THP
finally.
In this patch, one swap cluster is used to hold the contents of each THP
swapped out. So, the size of the swap cluster is changed to that of the
THP (Transparent Huge Page) on x86_64 architecture (512). For other
architectures which want such THP swap optimization,
ARCH_USES_THP_SWAP_CLUSTER needs to be selected in the Kconfig file for
the architecture. In effect, this will enlarge swap cluster size by 2
times on x86_64. Which may make it harder to find a free cluster when
the swap space becomes fragmented. So that, this may reduce the
continuous swap space allocation and sequential write in theory. The
performance test in 0day shows no regressions caused by this.
In the future of THP swap optimization, some information of the swapped
out THP (such as compound map count) will be recorded in the
swap_cluster_info data structure.
The mem cgroup swap accounting functions are enhanced to support charge
or uncharge a swap cluster backing a THP as a whole.
The swap cluster allocate/free functions are added to allocate/free a
swap cluster for a THP. A fair simple algorithm is used for swap
cluster allocation, that is, only the first swap device in priority list
will be tried to allocate the swap cluster. The function will fail if
the trying is not successful, and the caller will fallback to allocate a
single swap slot instead. This works good enough for normal cases. If
the difference of the number of the free swap clusters among multiple
swap devices is significant, it is possible that some THPs are split
earlier than necessary. For example, this could be caused by big size
difference among multiple swap devices.
The swap cache functions is enhanced to support add/delete THP to/from
the swap cache as a set of (HPAGE_PMD_NR) sub-pages. This may be
enhanced in the future with multi-order radix tree. But because we will
split the THP soon during swapping out, that optimization doesn't make
much sense for this first step.
The THP splitting functions are enhanced to support to split THP in swap
cache during swapping out. The page lock will be held during allocating
the swap cluster, adding the THP into the swap cache and splitting the
THP. So in the code path other than swapping out, if the THP need to be
split, the PageSwapCache(THP) will be always false.
The swap cluster is only available for SSD, so the THP swap optimization
in this patchset has no effect for HDD.

This is the first step for the THP swap optimization. The plan is to
delay splitting the THP step by step and avoid splitting the THP
finally.
In this patch, one swap cluster is used to hold the contents of each THP
swapped out. So, the size of the swap cluster is changed to that of the
THP (Transparent Huge Page) on x86_64 architecture (512). For other
architectures which want such THP swap optimization,
ARCH_USES_THP_SWAP_CLUSTER needs to be selected in the Kconfig file for
the architecture. In effect, this will enlarge swap cluster size by 2
times on x86_64. Which may make it harder to find a free cluster when
the swap space becomes fragmented. So that, this may reduce the
continuous swap space allocation and sequential write in theory. The
performance test in 0day shows no regressions caused by this.
In the future of THP swap optimization, some information of the swapped
out THP (such as compound map count) will be recorded in the
swap_cluster_info data structure.
The mem cgroup swap accounting functions are enhanced to support charge
or uncharge a swap cluster backing a THP as a whole.
The swap cluster allocate/free functions are added to allocate/free a
swap cluster for a THP. A fair simple algorithm is used for swap
cluster allocation, that is, only the first swap device in priority list
will be tried to allocate the swap cluster. The function will fail if
the trying is not successful, and the caller will fallback to allocate a
single swap slot instead. This works good enough for normal cases. If
the difference of the number of the free swap clusters among multiple
swap devices is significant, it is possible that some THPs are split
earlier than necessary. For example, this could be caused by big size
difference among multiple swap devices.
The swap cache functions is enhanced to support add/delete THP to/from
the swap cache as a set of (HPAGE_PMD_NR) sub-pages. This may be
enhanced in the future with multi-order radix tree. But because we will
split the THP soon during swapping out, that optimization doesn't make
much sense for this first step.
The THP splitting functions are enhanced to support to split THP in swap
cache during swapping out. The page lock will be held during allocating
the swap cluster, adding the THP into the swap cache and splitting the
THP. So in the code path other than swapping out, if the THP need to be
split, the PageSwapCache(THP) will be always false.
The swap cluster is only available for SSD, so the THP swap optimization
in this patchset has no effect for HDD.

mm, THP, swap: delay splitting THP during swap out
Patch series "THP swap: Delay splitting THP during swapping out", v11.
This patchset is to optimize the performance of Transparent Huge Page
(THP) swap.
Recently, the performance of the storage devices improved so fast that
we cannot saturate the disk bandwidth with single logical CPU when do
page swap out even on a high-end server machine. Because the
performance of the storage device improved faster than that of single
logical CPU. And it seems that the trend will not change in the near
future. On the other hand, the THP becomes more and more popular
because of increased memory size. So it becomes necessary to optimize
THP swap performance.
The advantages of the THP swap support include:
- Batch the swap operations for the THP to reduce lock
acquiring/releasing, including allocating/freeing the swap space,
adding/deleting to/from the swap cache, and writing/reading the swap
space, etc. This will help improve the performance of the THP swap.
- The THP swap space read/write will be 2M sequential IO. It is
particularly helpful for the swap read, which are usually 4k random
IO. This will improve the performance of the THP swap too.
- It will help the memory fragmentation, especially when the THP is
heavily used by the applications. The 2M continuous pages will be
free up after THP swapping out.
- It will improve the THP utilization on the system with the swap
turned on. Because the speed for khugepaged to collapse the normal
pages into the THP is quite slow. After the THP is split during the
swapping out, it will take quite long time for the normal pages to
collapse back into the THP after being swapped in. The high THP
utilization helps the efficiency of the page based memory management
too.
There are some concerns regarding THP swap in, mainly because possible
enlarged read/write IO size (for swap in/out) may put more overhead on
the storage device. To deal with that, the THP swap in should be turned
on only when necessary. For example, it can be selected via
"always/never/madvise" logic, to be turned on globally, turned off
globally, or turned on only for VMA with MADV_HUGEPAGE, etc.
This patchset is the first step for the THP swap support. The plan is
to delay splitting THP step by step, finally avoid splitting THP during
the THP swapping out and swap out/in the THP as a whole.
As the first step, in this patchset, the splitting huge page is delayed
from almost the first step of swapping out to after allocating the swap
space for the THP and adding the THP into the swap cache. This will
reduce lock acquiring/releasing for the locks used for the swap cache
management.
With the patchset, the swap out throughput improves 15.5% (from about
3.73GB/s to about 4.31GB/s) in the vm-scalability swap-w-seq test case
with 8 processes. The test is done on a Xeon E5 v3 system. The swap
device used is a RAM simulated PMEM (persistent memory) device. To test
the sequential swapping out, the test case creates 8 processes, which
sequentially allocate and write to the anonymous pages until the RAM and
part of the swap device is used up.
This patch (of 5):
In this patch, splitting huge page is delayed from almost the first step
of swapping out to after allocating the swap space for the THP
(Transparent Huge Page) and adding the THP into the swap cache. This
will batch the corresponding operation, thus improve THP swap out
throughput.
This is the first step for the THP swap optimization. The plan is to
delay splitting the THP step by step and avoid splitting the THP
finally.
In this patch, one swap cluster is used to hold the contents of each THP

Patch series "mm: percpu: Cleanup percpu first chunk function".
When supporting page mapping percpu first chunk allocator on arm64, we
found there are lots of duplicated codes in percpu embed/page first chunk
allocator. This patchset is aimed to cleanup them and should no function
change.
The currently supported status about 'embed' and 'page' in Archs shows
below,
embed: NEED_PER_CPU_PAGE_FIRST_CHUNK
page: NEED_PER_CPU_EMBED_FIRST_CHUNK
embed page
------------------------
arm64 Y Y
mips Y N
powerpc Y Y
riscv Y N
sparc Y Y
x86 Y Y
------------------------
There are two interfaces about percpu first chunk allocator,
extern int __init pcpu_embed_first_chunk(size_t reserved_size, size_t dyn_size,
size_t atom_size,
pcpu_fc_cpu_distance_fn_t cpu_distance_fn,
- pcpu_fc_alloc_fn_t alloc_fn,
- pcpu_fc_free_fn_t free_fn);
+ pcpu_fc_cpu_to_node_fn_t cpu_to_nd_fn);
extern int __init pcpu_page_first_chunk(size_t reserved_size,
- pcpu_fc_alloc_fn_t alloc_fn,
- pcpu_fc_free_fn_t free_fn,
- pcpu_fc_populate_pte_fn_t populate_pte_fn);
+ pcpu_fc_cpu_to_node_fn_t cpu_to_nd_fn);
The pcpu_fc_alloc_fn_t/pcpu_fc_free_fn_t is killed, we provide generic
pcpu_fc_alloc() and pcpu_fc_free() function, which are called in the
pcpu_embed/page_first_chunk().
1) For pcpu_embed_first_chunk(), pcpu_fc_cpu_to_node_fn_t is needed to be
provided when archs supported NUMA.
2) For pcpu_page_first_chunk(), the pcpu_fc_populate_pte_fn_t is killed too,
a generic pcpu_populate_pte() which marked '__weak' is provided, if you
need a different function to populate pte on the arch(like x86), please
provide its own implementation.

mm: soft-dirty bits for user memory changes tracking
The soft-dirty is a bit on a PTE which helps to track which pages a task
writes to. In order to do this tracking one should
1. Clear soft-dirty bits from PTEs ("echo 4 > /proc/PID/clear_refs)
2. Wait some time.
3. Read soft-dirty bits (55'th in /proc/PID/pagemap2 entries)
To do this tracking, the writable bit is cleared from PTEs when the
soft-dirty bit is. Thus, after this, when the task tries to modify a
page at some virtual address the #PF occurs and the kernel sets the
soft-dirty bit on the respective PTE.
Note, that although all the task's address space is marked as r/o after
the soft-dirty bits clear, the #PF-s that occur after that are processed
fast. This is so, since the pages are still mapped to physical memory,
and thus all the kernel does is finds this fact out and puts back
writable, dirty and soft-dirty bits on the PTE.
Another thing to note, is that when mremap moves PTEs they are marked
with soft-dirty as well, since from the user perspective mremap modifies
the virtual memory at mremap's new address.

mm: make DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT explicitly depend on SPARSEMEM
The deferred memory initialization relies on section definitions, e.g
PAGES_PER_SECTION, that are only available when CONFIG_SPARSEMEM=y on
most architectures.
Initially DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT depended on explicit
ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT configuration option, but since
the commit 2e3ca40f03bb13709df4 ("mm: relax deferred struct page
requirements") this requirement was relaxed and now it is possible to
enable DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT on architectures that support
DISCONTINGMEM and NO_BOOTMEM which causes build failures.
For instance, setting SMP=y and DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT=y on arc
causes the following build failure:

mm: parallelize deferred_init_memmap()
Deferred struct page init is a significant bottleneck in kernel boot.
Optimizing it maximizes availability for large-memory systems and allows
spinning up short-lived VMs as needed without having to leave them
running. It also benefits bare metal machines hosting VMs that are
sensitive to downtime. In projects such as VMM Fast Restart[1], where
guest state is preserved across kexec reboot, it helps prevent application
and network timeouts in the guests.
Multithread to take full advantage of system memory bandwidth.
The maximum number of threads is capped at the number of CPUs on the node
because speedups always improve with additional threads on every system
tested, and at this phase of boot, the system is otherwise idle and
waiting on page init to finish.
Helper threads operate on section-aligned ranges to both avoid false
sharing when setting the pageblock's migrate type and to avoid accessing
uninitialized buddy pages, though max order alignment is enough for the
latter.
The minimum chunk size is also a section. There was benefit to using
multiple threads even on relatively small memory (1G) systems, and this is
the smallest size that the alignment allows.
The time (milliseconds) is the slowest node to initialize since boot
blocks until all nodes finish. intel_pstate is loaded in active mode
without hwp and with turbo enabled, and intel_idle is active as well.

Ordinarily all struct pages are initialised during early boot in a

amount of time. If this option is set, large machines will bring up

mm: parallelize deferred_init_memmap()
Deferred struct page init is a significant bottleneck in kernel boot.
Optimizing it maximizes availability for large-memory systems and allows
spinning up short-lived VMs as needed without having to leave them
running. It also benefits bare metal machines hosting VMs that are
sensitive to downtime. In projects such as VMM Fast Restart[1], where
guest state is preserved across kexec reboot, it helps prevent application
and network timeouts in the guests.
Multithread to take full advantage of system memory bandwidth.
The maximum number of threads is capped at the number of CPUs on the node
because speedups always improve with additional threads on every system
tested, and at this phase of boot, the system is otherwise idle and
waiting on page init to finish.
Helper threads operate on section-aligned ranges to both avoid false
sharing when setting the pageblock's migrate type and to avoid accessing
uninitialized buddy pages, though max order alignment is enough for the
latter.
The minimum chunk size is also a section. There was benefit to using
multiple threads even on relatively small memory (1G) systems, and this is
the smallest size that the alignment allows.
The time (milliseconds) is the slowest node to initialize since boot
blocks until all nodes finish. intel_pstate is loaded in active mode
without hwp and with turbo enabled, and intel_idle is active as well.

mm/idle_page_tracking: make PG_idle reusable
PG_idle and PG_young allow the two PTE Accessed bit users, Idle Page
Tracking and the reclaim logic concurrently work while not interfering
with each other. That is, when they need to clear the Accessed bit, they
set PG_young to represent the previous state of the bit, respectively.
And when they need to read the bit, if the bit is cleared, they further
read the PG_young to know whether the other has cleared the bit meanwhile
or not.
For yet another user of the PTE Accessed bit, we could add another page
flag, or extend the mechanism to use the flags. For the DAMON usecase,
however, we don't need to do that just yet. IDLE_PAGE_TRACKING and DAMON
are mutually exclusive, so there's only ever going to be one user of the
current set of flags.
In this commit, we split out the CONFIG options to allow for the use of
PG_young and PG_idle outside of idle page tracking.
In the next commit, DAMON's reference implementation of the virtual memory
address space monitoring primitives will use it.

mm: introduce idle page tracking
Knowing the portion of memory that is not used by a certain application or
memory cgroup (idle memory) can be useful for partitioning the system
efficiently, e.g. by setting memory cgroup limits appropriately.
Currently, the only means to estimate the amount of idle memory provided
by the kernel is /proc/PID/{clear_refs,smaps}: the user can clear the
access bit for all pages mapped to a particular process by writing 1 to
clear_refs, wait for some time, and then count smaps:Referenced. However,
this method has two serious shortcomings:
- it does not count unmapped file pages
- it affects the reclaimer logic
To overcome these drawbacks, this patch introduces two new page flags,
Idle and Young, and a new sysfs file, /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap.
A page's Idle flag can only be set from userspace by setting bit in
/sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap at the offset corresponding to the page,
and it is cleared whenever the page is accessed either through page tables
(it is cleared in page_referenced() in this case) or using the read(2)
system call (mark_page_accessed()). Thus by setting the Idle flag for
pages of a particular workload, which can be found e.g. by reading
/proc/PID/pagemap, waiting for some time to let the workload access its
working set, and then reading the bitmap file, one can estimate the amount
of pages that are not used by the workload.
The Young page flag is used to avoid interference with the memory
reclaimer. A page's Young flag is set whenever the Access bit of a page
table entry pointing to the page is cleared by writing to the bitmap file.
If page_referenced() is called on a Young page, it will add 1 to its

mm/idle_page_tracking: make PG_idle reusable
PG_idle and PG_young allow the two PTE Accessed bit users, Idle Page
Tracking and the reclaim logic concurrently work while not interfering
with each other. That is, when they need to clear the Accessed bit, they
set PG_young to represent the previous state of the bit, respectively.
And when they need to read the bit, if the bit is cleared, they further
read the PG_young to know whether the other has cleared the bit meanwhile
or not.
For yet another user of the PTE Accessed bit, we could add another page
flag, or extend the mechanism to use the flags. For the DAMON usecase,
however, we don't need to do that just yet. IDLE_PAGE_TRACKING and DAMON
are mutually exclusive, so there's only ever going to be one user of the
current set of flags.
In this commit, we split out the CONFIG options to allow for the use of
PG_young and PG_idle outside of idle page tracking.
In the next commit, DAMON's reference implementation of the virtual memory
address space monitoring primitives will use it.

mm: introduce idle page tracking
Knowing the portion of memory that is not used by a certain application or
memory cgroup (idle memory) can be useful for partitioning the system
efficiently, e.g. by setting memory cgroup limits appropriately.
Currently, the only means to estimate the amount of idle memory provided
by the kernel is /proc/PID/{clear_refs,smaps}: the user can clear the
access bit for all pages mapped to a particular process by writing 1 to
clear_refs, wait for some time, and then count smaps:Referenced. However,
this method has two serious shortcomings:
- it does not count unmapped file pages
- it affects the reclaimer logic
To overcome these drawbacks, this patch introduces two new page flags,
Idle and Young, and a new sysfs file, /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap.
A page's Idle flag can only be set from userspace by setting bit in
/sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap at the offset corresponding to the page,
and it is cleared whenever the page is accessed either through page tables
(it is cleared in page_referenced() in this case) or using the read(2)
system call (mark_page_accessed()). Thus by setting the Idle flag for
pages of a particular workload, which can be found e.g. by reading
/proc/PID/pagemap, waiting for some time to let the workload access its
working set, and then reading the bitmap file, one can estimate the amount
of pages that are not used by the workload.
The Young page flag is used to avoid interference with the memory
reclaimer. A page's Young flag is set whenever the Access bit of a page
table entry pointing to the page is cleared by writing to the bitmap file.
If page_referenced() is called on a Young page, it will add 1 to its
return value, therefore concealing the fact that the Access bit was
cleared.
Note, since there is no room for extra page flags on 32 bit, this feature
uses extended page flags when compiled on 32 bit.

mm/gup_benchmark: rename to mm/gup_test
Patch series "selftests/vm: gup_test, hmm-tests, assorted improvements", v3.
Summary: This series provides two main things, and a number of smaller
supporting goodies. The two main points are:
1) Add a new sub-test to gup_test, which in turn is a renamed version
of gup_benchmark. This sub-test allows nicer testing of dump_pages(),
at least on user-space pages.
For quite a while, I was doing a quick hack to gup_test.c whenever I
wanted to try out changes to dump_page(). Then Matthew Wilcox asked me
what I meant when I said "I used my dump_page() unit test", and I
realized that it might be nice to check in a polished up version of
that.
Details about how it works and how to use it are in the commit
description for patch #6 ("selftests/vm: gup_test: introduce the
dump_pages() sub-test").
2) Fixes a limitation of hmm-tests: these tests are incredibly useful,
but only if people actually build and run them. And it turns out that
libhugetlbfs is a little too effective at throwing a wrench in the
works, there. So I've added a little configuration check that removes
just two of the 21 hmm-tests, if libhugetlbfs is not available.
Further details in the commit description of patch #8
("selftests/vm: hmm-tests: remove the libhugetlbfs dependency").
Other smaller things that this series does:
a) Remove code duplication by creating gup_test.h.
b) Clear up the sub-test organization, and their invocation within
run_vmtests.sh.
c) Other minor assorted improvements.
[1] v2 is here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-doc/20200929212747.251804-1-jhubbard@nvidia.com/
[2] https://lore.kernel.org/r/CAHk-=wgh-TMPHLY3jueHX7Y2fWh3D+nMBqVS__AZm6-oorquWA@mail.gmail.com
This patch (of 9):
Rename nearly every "gup_benchmark" reference and file name to "gup_test".
The one exception is for the actual gup benchmark test itself.
The current code already does a *little* bit more than benchmarking, and
definitely covers more than get_user_pages_fast(). More importantly,
however, subsequent patches are about to add some functionality that is
non-benchmark related.
Closely related changes:
* Kconfig: in addition to renaming the options from GUP_BENCHMARK to
GUP_TEST, update the help text to reflect that it's no longer a
benchmark-only test.

selftests/vm: gup_test: introduce the dump_pages() sub-test
For quite a while, I was doing a quick hack to gup_test.c (previously,
gup_benchmark.c) whenever I wanted to try out my changes to dump_page().
This makes that hack unnecessary, and instead allows anyone to easily get
the same coverage from a user space program. That saves a lot of time
because you don't have to change the kernel, in order to test different
pages and options.
The new sub-test takes advantage of the existing gup_test infrastructure,
which already provides a simple user space program, some allocated user
space pages, an ioctl call, pinning of those pages (via either
get_user_pages or pin_user_pages) and a corresponding kernel-side test
invocation. There's not much more required, mainly just a couple of
inputs from the user.
In fact, the new test re-uses the existing command line options in order
to get various helpful combinations (THP or normal, _fast or slow gup, gup
vs. pup, and more).
New command line options are: which pages to dump, and what type of
"get/pin" to use.
In order to figure out which pages to dump, the logic is:
* If the user doesn't specify anything, the page 0 (the first page in
the address range that the program sets up for testing) is dumped.
* Or, the user can type up to 8 page indices anywhere on the command
line. If you type more than 8, then it uses the first 8 and ignores the
remaining items.
For example:
./gup_test -ct -F 1 0 19 0x1000
Meaning:
-c: dump pages sub-test
-t: use THP pages
-F 1: use pin_user_pages() instead of get_user_pages()
0 19 0x1000: dump pages 0, 19, and 4096

mm/gup_benchmark: rename to mm/gup_test
Patch series "selftests/vm: gup_test, hmm-tests, assorted improvements", v3.
Summary: This series provides two main things, and a number of smaller
supporting goodies. The two main points are:
1) Add a new sub-test to gup_test, which in turn is a renamed version
of gup_benchmark. This sub-test allows nicer testing of dump_pages(),
at least on user-space pages.
For quite a while, I was doing a quick hack to gup_test.c whenever I

libhugetlbfs is a little too effective at throwing a wrench in the
works, there. So I've added a little configuration check that removes

mm: introduce memfd_secret system call to create "secret" memory areas
Introduce "memfd_secret" system call with the ability to create memory
areas visible only in the context of the owning process and not mapped not
only to other processes but in the kernel page tables as well.
The secretmem feature is off by default and the user must explicitly
enable it at the boot time.
Once secretmem is enabled, the user will be able to create a file
descriptor using the memfd_secret() system call. The memory areas created
by mmap() calls from this file descriptor will be unmapped from the kernel
direct map and they will be only mapped in the page table of the processes
that have access to the file descriptor.
Secretmem is designed to provide the following protections:
* Enhanced protection (in conjunction with all the other in-kernel
attack prevention systems) against ROP attacks. Seceretmem makes
"simple" ROP insufficient to perform exfiltration, which increases the
required complexity of the attack. Along with other protections like
the kernel stack size limit and address space layout randomization which
make finding gadgets is really hard, absence of any in-kernel primitive
for accessing secret memory means the one gadget ROP attack can't work.
Since the only way to access secret memory is to reconstruct the missing
mapping entry, the attacker has to recover the physical page and insert
a PTE pointing to it in the kernel and then retrieve the contents. That
takes at least three gadgets which is a level of difficulty beyond most
standard attacks.
* Prevent cross-process secret userspace memory exposures. Once the
secret memory is allocated, the user can't accidentally pass it into the
kernel to be transmitted somewhere. The secreremem pages cannot be
accessed via the direct map and they are disallowed in GUP.
* Harden against exploited kernel flaws. In order to access secretmem,
a kernel-side attack would need to either walk the page tables and
create new ones, or spawn a new privileged uiserspace process to perform
secrets exfiltration using ptrace.
The file descriptor based memory has several advantages over the
"traditional" mm interfaces, such as mlock(), mprotect(), madvise(). File
descriptor approach allows explicit and controlled sharing of the memory
areas, it allows to seal the operations. Besides, file descriptor based
memory paves the way for VMMs to remove the secret memory range from the
userspace hipervisor process, for instance QEMU. Andy Lutomirski says:
"Getting fd-backed memory into a guest will take some possibly major
work in the kernel, but getting vma-backed memory into a guest without
mapping it in the host user address space seems much, much worse."
memfd_secret() is made a dedicated system call rather than an extension to
memfd_create() because it's purpose is to allow the user to create more
secure memory mappings rather than to simply allow file based access to
the memory. Nowadays a new system call cost is negligible while it is way
simpler for userspace to deal with a clear-cut system calls than with a
multiplexer or an overloaded syscall. Moreover, the initial
implementation of memfd_secret() is completely distinct from
memfd_create() so there is no much sense in overloading memfd_create() to
begin with. If there will be a need for code sharing between these
implementation it can be easily achieved without a need to adjust user
visible APIs.
The secret memory remains accessible in the process context using uaccess
primitives, but it is not exposed to the kernel otherwise; secret memory
areas are removed from the direct map and functions in the
follow_page()/get_user_page() family will refuse to return a page that
belongs to the secret memory area.
Once there will be a use case that will require exposing secretmem to the
kernel it will be an opt-in request in the system call flags so that user
would have to decide what data can be exposed to the kernel.
Removing of the pages from the direct map may cause its fragmentation on
architectures that use large pages to map the physical memory which
affects the system performance. However, the original Kconfig text for
CONFIG_DIRECT_GBPAGES said that gigabyte pages in the direct map "... can
improve the kernel's performance a tiny bit ..." (commit 00d1c5e05736
("x86: add gbpages switches")) and the recent report [1] showed that "...
although 1G mappings are a good default choice, there is no compelling
evidence that it must be the only choice". Hence, it is sufficient to
have secretmem disabled by default with the ability of a system
administrator to enable it at boot time.
Pages in the secretmem regions are unevictable and unmovable to avoid
accidental exposure of the sensitive data via swap or during page
migration.
Since the secretmem mappings are locked in memory they cannot exceed
RLIMIT_MEMLOCK. Since these mappings are already locked independently
from mlock(), an attempt to mlock()/munlock() secretmem range would fail
and mlockall()/munlockall() will ignore secretmem mappings.
However, unlike mlock()ed memory, secretmem currently behaves more like
long-term GUP: secretmem mappings are unmovable mappings directly consumed
by user space. With default limits, there is no excessive use of
secretmem and it poses no real problem in combination with
ZONE_MOVABLE/CMA, but in the future this should be addressed to allow
balanced use of large amounts of secretmem along with ZONE_MOVABLE/CMA.
A page that was a part of the secret memory area is cleared when it is
freed to ensure the data is not exposed to the next user of that page.
The following example demonstrates creation of a secret mapping (error
handling is omitted):
fd = memfd_secret(0);
ftruncate(fd, MAP_SIZE);
ptr = mmap(NULL, MAP_SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);

mm: add a field to store names for private anonymous memory
In many userspace applications, and especially in VM based applications
like Android uses heavily, there are multiple different allocators in
use. At a minimum there is libc malloc and the stack, and in many cases
there are libc malloc, the stack, direct syscalls to mmap anonymous
memory, and multiple VM heaps (one for small objects, one for big
objects, etc.). Each of these layers usually has its own tools to
inspect its usage; malloc by compiling a debug version, the VM through
heap inspection tools, and for direct syscalls there is usually no way
to track them.
On Android we heavily use a set of tools that use an extended version of
the logic covered in Documentation/vm/pagemap.txt to walk all pages
mapped in userspace and slice their usage by process, shared (COW) vs.
unique mappings, backing, etc. This can account for real physical
memory usage even in cases like fork without exec (which Android uses
heavily to share as many private COW pages as possible between
processes), Kernel SamePage Merging, and clean zero pages. It produces
a measurement of the pages that only exist in that process (USS, for
unique), and a measurement of the physical memory usage of that process
with the cost of shared pages being evenly split between processes that
share them (PSS).
If all anonymous memory is indistinguishable then figuring out the real
physical memory usage (PSS) of each heap requires either a pagemap
walking tool that can understand the heap debugging of every layer, or
for every layer's heap debugging tools to implement the pagemap walking
logic, in which case it is hard to get a consistent view of memory
across the whole system.
Tracking the information in userspace leads to all sorts of problems.
It either needs to be stored inside the process, which means every
process has to have an API to export its current heap information upon
request, or it has to be stored externally in a filesystem that somebody
needs to clean up on crashes. It needs to be readable while the process
is still running, so it has to have some sort of synchronization with
every layer of userspace. Efficiently tracking the ranges requires
reimplementing something like the kernel vma trees, and linking to it
from every layer of userspace. It requires more memory, more syscalls,
more runtime cost, and more complexity to separately track regions that
the kernel is already tracking.
This patch adds a field to /proc/pid/maps and /proc/pid/smaps to show a
userspace-provided name for anonymous vmas. The names of named
anonymous vmas are shown in /proc/pid/maps and /proc/pid/smaps as
[anon:<name>].
Userspace can set the name for a region of memory by calling
prctl(PR_SET_VMA, PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME, start, len, (unsigned long)name)
Setting the name to NULL clears it. The name length limit is 80 bytes
including NUL-terminator and is checked to contain only printable ascii
characters (including space), except '[',']','\','$' and '`'.
Ascii strings are being used to have a descriptive identifiers for vmas,
which can be understood by the users reading /proc/pid/maps or
/proc/pid/smaps. Names can be standardized for a given system and they
can include some variable parts such as the name of the allocator or a
library, tid of the thread using it, etc.
The name is stored in a pointer in the shared union in vm_area_struct
that points to a null terminated string. Anonymous vmas with the same
name (equivalent strings) and are otherwise mergeable will be merged.
The name pointers are not shared between vmas even if they contain the
same name. The name pointer is stored in a union with fields that are
only used on file-backed mappings, so it does not increase memory usage.
CONFIG_ANON_VMA_NAME kernel configuration is introduced to enable this
feature. It keeps the feature disabled by default to prevent any
additional memory overhead and to avoid confusing procfs parsers on
systems which are not ready to support named anonymous vmas.
The patch is based on the original patch developed by Colin Cross, more
specifically on its latest version [1] posted upstream by Sumit Semwal.
It used a userspace pointer to store vma names. In that design, name
pointers could be shared between vmas. However during the last
upstreaming attempt, Kees Cook raised concerns [2] about this approach
and suggested to copy the name into kernel memory space, perform
validity checks [3] and store as a string referenced from
vm_area_struct.
One big concern is about fork() performance which would need to strdup
anonymous vma names. Dave Hansen suggested experimenting with
worst-case scenario of forking a process with 64k vmas having longest
possible names [4]. I ran this experiment on an ARM64 Android device
and recorded a worst-case regression of almost 40% when forking such a
process.
This regression is addressed in the followup patch which replaces the
pointer to a name with a refcounted structure that allows sharing the
name pointer between vmas of the same name. Instead of duplicating the
string during fork() or when splitting a vma it increments the refcount.

Changes for prctl(2) manual page (in the options section):
PR_SET_VMA
Sets an attribute specified in arg2 for virtual memory areas
starting from the address specified in arg3 and spanning the
size specified in arg4. arg5 specifies the value of the attribute
to be set. Note that assigning an attribute to a virtual memory
area might prevent it from being merged with adjacent virtual
memory areas due to the difference in that attribute's value.
Currently, arg2 must be one of:
PR_SET_VMA_ANON_NAME
Set a name for anonymous virtual memory areas. arg5 should
be a pointer to a null-terminated string containing the
name. The name length including null byte cannot exceed
80 bytes. If arg5 is NULL, the name of the appropriate
anonymous virtual memory areas will be reset. The name
can contain only printable ascii characters (including
space), except '[',']','\','$' and '`'.
This feature is available only if the kernel is built with
the CONFIG_ANON_VMA_NAME option enabled.

mm: introduce Data Access MONitor (DAMON)
Patch series "Introduce Data Access MONitor (DAMON)", v34.
Introduction
============
DAMON is a data access monitoring framework for the Linux kernel. The
core mechanisms of DAMON called 'region based sampling' and 'adaptive
regions adjustment' (refer to 'mechanisms.rst' in the 11th patch of this
patchset for the detail) make it
- accurate (The monitored information is useful for DRAM level memory
management. It might not appropriate for Cache-level accuracy,
though.),
- light-weight (The monitoring overhead is low enough to be applied
online while making no impact on the performance of the target
workloads.), and
- scalable (the upper-bound of the instrumentation overhead is
controllable regardless of the size of target workloads.).
Using this framework, therefore, several memory management mechanisms such
as reclamation and THP can be optimized to aware real data access
patterns. Experimental access pattern aware memory management
optimization works that incurring high instrumentation overhead will be
able to have another try.
Though DAMON is for kernel subsystems, it can be easily exposed to the
user space by writing a DAMON-wrapper kernel subsystem. Then, user space
users who have some special workloads will be able to write personalized
tools or applications for deeper understanding and specialized
optimizations of their systems.
DAMON is also merged in two public Amazon Linux kernel trees that based on
v5.4.y[1] and v5.10.y[2].

[2] https://github.com/amazonlinux/linux/tree/amazon-5.10.y/master/mm/damon
The userspace tool[1] is available, released under GPLv2, and actively
being maintained. I am also planning to implement another basic user
interface in perf[2]. Also, the basic test suite for DAMON is available
under GPLv2[3].

Long-term Plan
--------------
DAMON is a part of a project called Data Access-aware Operating System
(DAOS). As the name implies, I want to improve the performance and
efficiency of systems using fine-grained data access patterns. The
optimizations are for both kernel and user spaces. I will therefore
modify or create kernel subsystems, export some of those to user space and
implement user space library / tools. Below shows the layers and
components for the project.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Primitives: PTE Accessed bit, PG_idle, rmap, (Intel CMT), ...
Framework: DAMON
Features: DAMOS, virtual addr, physical addr, ...
Applications: DAMON-debugfs, (DARC), ...
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ KERNEL SPACE ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Raw Interface: debugfs, (sysfs), (damonfs), tracepoints, (sys_damon), ...
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv USER SPACE vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv

Tools: DAMO, (perf), ...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The components in parentheses or marked as '...' are not implemented yet
but in the future plan. IOW, those are the TODO tasks of DAOS project.
For more detail, please refer to the plans:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20201202082731.24828-1-sjpark@amazon.com/
Evaluations
===========
We evaluated DAMON's overhead, monitoring quality and usefulness using 24
realistic workloads on my QEMU/KVM based virtual machine running a kernel
that v24 DAMON patchset is applied.
DAMON is lightweight. It increases system memory usage by 0.39% and slows
target workloads down by 1.16%.
DAMON is accurate and useful for memory management optimizations. An
experimental DAMON-based operation scheme for THP, namely 'ethp', removes
76.15% of THP memory overheads while preserving 51.25% of THP speedup.
Another experimental DAMON-based 'proactive reclamation' implementation,
'prcl', reduces 93.38% of residential sets and 23.63% of system memory
footprint while incurring only 1.22% runtime overhead in the best case
(parsec3/freqmine).
NOTE that the experimental THP optimization and proactive reclamation are
not for production but only for proof of concepts.
Please refer to the official document[1] or "Documentation/admin-guide/mm:
Add a document for DAMON" patch in this patchset for detailed evaluation
setup and results.
[1] https://damonitor.github.io/doc/html/latest-damon/admin-guide/mm/damon/eval.html
Real-world User Story
=====================
In summary, DAMON has used on production systems and proved its usefulness.
DAMON as a profiler
-------------------
We analyzed characteristics of a large scale production systems of our
customers using DAMON. The systems utilize 70GB DRAM and 36 CPUs. From
this, we were able to find interesting things below.
There were obviously different access pattern under idle workload and
active workload. Under the idle workload, it accessed large memory
regions with low frequency, while the active workload accessed small
memory regions with high freuqnecy.
DAMON found a 7GB memory region that showing obviously high access
frequency under the active workload. We believe this is the
performance-effective working set and need to be protected.
There was a 4KB memory region that showing highest access frequency under
not only active but also idle workloads. We think this must be a hottest
code section like thing that should never be paged out.
For this analysis, DAMON used only 0.3-1% of single CPU time. Because we
used recording-based analysis, it consumed about 3-12 MB of disk space per
20 minutes. This is only small amount of disk space, but we can further
reduce the disk usage by using non-recording-based DAMON features. I'd
like to argue that only DAMON can do such detailed analysis (finding 4KB
highest region in 70GB memory) with the light overhead.
DAMON as a system optimization tool
-----------------------------------
We also found below potential performance problems on the systems and made
DAMON-based solutions.
The system doesn't want to make the workload suffer from the page
reclamation and thus it utilizes enough DRAM but no swap device. However,
we found the system is actively reclaiming file-backed pages, because the
system has intensive file IO. The file IO turned out to be not
performance critical for the workload, but the customer wanted to ensure
performance critical file-backed pages like code section to not mistakenly
be evicted.
Using direct IO should or `mlock()` would be a straightforward solution,
but modifying the user space code is not easy for the customer.
Alternatively, we could use DAMON-based operation scheme[1]. By using it,
we can ask DAMON to track access frequency of each region and make
'process_madvise(MADV_WILLNEED)[2]' call for regions having specific size
and access frequency for a time interval.
We also found the system is having high number of TLB misses. We tried
'always' THP enabled policy and it greatly reduced TLB misses, but the
page reclamation also been more frequent due to the THP internal
fragmentation caused memory bloat. We could try another DAMON-based
operation scheme that applies 'MADV_HUGEPAGE' to memory regions having
>=2MB size and high access frequency, while applying 'MADV_NOHUGEPAGE' to
regions having <2MB size and low access frequency.
We do not own the systems so we only reported the analysis results and
possible optimization solutions to the customers. The customers satisfied
about the analysis results and promised to try the optimization guides.

Comparison with Idle Page Tracking
==================================
Idle Page Tracking allows users to set and read idleness of pages using a
bitmap file which represents each page with each bit of the file. One
recommended usage of it is working set size detection. Users can do that
by
1. find PFN of each page for workloads in interest,
2. set all the pages as idle by doing writes to the bitmap file,
3. wait until the workload accesses its working set, and
4. read the idleness of the pages again and count pages became not idle.
NOTE: While Idle Page Tracking is for user space users, DAMON is primarily
designed for kernel subsystems though it can easily exposed to the user
space. Hence, this section only assumes such user space use of DAMON.
For what use cases Idle Page Tracking would be better?
------------------------------------------------------
1. Flexible usecases other than hotness monitoring.
Because Idle Page Tracking allows users to control the primitive (Page
idleness) by themselves, Idle Page Tracking users can do anything they
want. Meanwhile, DAMON is primarily designed to monitor the hotness of
each memory region. For this, DAMON asks users to provide sampling
interval and aggregation interval. For the reason, there could be some
use case that using Idle Page Tracking is simpler.
2. Physical memory monitoring.
Idle Page Tracking receives PFN range as input, so natively supports
physical memory monitoring.
DAMON is designed to be extensible for multiple address spaces and use
cases by implementing and using primitives for the given use case.
Therefore, by theory, DAMON has no limitation in the type of target
address space as long as primitives for the given address space exists.
However, the default primitives introduced by this patchset supports only
virtual address spaces.
Therefore, for physical memory monitoring, you should implement your own
primitives and use it, or simply use Idle Page Tracking.
Nonetheless, RFC patchsets[1] for the physical memory address space
primitives is already available. It also supports user memory same to
Idle Page Tracking.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20200831104730.28970-1-sjpark@amazon.com/
For what use cases DAMON is better?
-----------------------------------
1. Hotness Monitoring.
Idle Page Tracking let users know only if a page frame is accessed or not.
For hotness check, the user should write more code and use more memory.
DAMON do that by itself.
2. Low Monitoring Overhead
DAMON receives user's monitoring request with one step and then provide
the results. So, roughly speaking, DAMON require only O(1) user/kernel
context switches.
In case of Idle Page Tracking, however, because the interface receives
contiguous page frames, the number of user/kernel context switches
increases as the monitoring target becomes complex and huge. As a result,
the context switch overhead could be not negligible.
Moreover, DAMON is born to handle with the monitoring overhead. Because
the core mechanism is pure logical, Idle Page Tracking users might be able
to implement the mechanism on their own, but it would be time consuming
and the user/kernel context switching will still more frequent than that
of DAMON. Also, the kernel subsystems cannot use the logic in this case.
3. Page granularity working set size detection.
Until v22 of this patchset, this was categorized as the thing Idle Page
Tracking could do better, because DAMON basically maintains additional
metadata for each of the monitoring target regions. So, in the page
granularity working set size detection use case, DAMON would incur (number
of monitoring target pages * size of metadata) memory overhead. Size of
the single metadata item is about 54 bytes, so assuming 4KB pages, about
1.3% of monitoring target pages will be additionally used.
All essential metadata for Idle Page Tracking are embedded in 'struct
page' and page table entries. Therefore, in this use case, only one
counter variable for working set size accounting is required if Idle Page
Tracking is used.
There are more details to consider, but roughly speaking, this is true in
most cases.
However, the situation changed from v23. Now DAMON supports arbitrary
types of monitoring targets, which don't use the metadata. Using that,
DAMON can do the working set size detection with no additional space
overhead but less user-kernel context switch. A first draft for the
implementation of monitoring primitives for this usage is available in a
DAMON development tree[1]. An RFC patchset for it based on this patchset
will also be available soon.
Since v24, the arbitrary type support is dropped from this patchset
because this patchset doesn't introduce real use of the type. You can
still get it from the DAMON development tree[2], though.
[1] https://github.com/sjp38/linux/tree/damon/pgidle_hack
[2] https://github.com/sjp38/linux/tree/damon/master
4. More future usecases
While Idle Page Tracking has tight coupling with base primitives (PG_Idle
and page table Accessed bits), DAMON is designed to be extensible for many
use cases and address spaces. If you need some special address type or
want to use special h/w access check primitives, you can write your own
primitives for that and configure DAMON to use those. Therefore, if your
use case could be changed a lot in future, using DAMON could be better.
Can I use both Idle Page Tracking and DAMON?
--------------------------------------------
Yes, though using them concurrently for overlapping memory regions could
result in interference to each other. Nevertheless, such use case would
be rare or makes no sense at all. Even in the case, the noise would bot
be really significant. So, you can choose whatever you want depending on
the characteristics of your use cases.

different versions of the patchset. For example:
$ git clone https://github.com/sjp38/damon-patches && cd damon-patches
$ diff -u damon/v33 damon/v34
Sequence Of Patches
===================
First three patches implement the core logics of DAMON. The 1st patch
introduces basic sampling based hotness monitoring for arbitrary types of
targets. Following two patches implement the core mechanisms for control
of overhead and accuracy, namely regions based sampling (patch 2) and
adaptive regions adjustment (patch 3).
Now the essential parts of DAMON is complete, but it cannot work unless
someone provides monitoring primitives for a specific use case. The
following two patches make it just work for virtual address spaces
monitoring. The 4th patch makes 'PG_idle' can be used by DAMON and the
5th patch implements the virtual memory address space specific monitoring
primitives using page table Accessed bits and the 'PG_idle' page flag.
Now DAMON just works for virtual address space monitoring via the kernel
space api. To let the user space users can use DAMON, following four
patches add interfaces for them. The 6th patch adds a tracepoint for
monitoring results. The 7th patch implements a DAMON application kernel
module, namely damon-dbgfs, that simply wraps DAMON and exposes DAMON
interface to the user space via the debugfs interface. The 8th patch
further exports pid of monitoring thread (kdamond) to user space for
easier cpu usage accounting, and the 9th patch makes the debugfs interface
to support multiple contexts.
Three patches for maintainability follows. The 10th patch adds
documentations for both the user space and the kernel space. The 11th
patch provides unit tests (based on the kunit) while the 12th patch adds
user space tests (based on the kselftest).
Finally, the last patch (13th) updates the MAINTAINERS file.
This patch (of 13):
DAMON is a data access monitoring framework for the Linux kernel. The
core mechanisms of DAMON make it
- accurate (the monitoring output is useful enough for DRAM level
performance-centric memory management; It might be inappropriate for
CPU cache levels, though),
- light-weight (the monitoring overhead is normally low enough to be
applied online), and
- scalable (the upper-bound of the overhead is in constant range
regardless of the size of target workloads).
Using this framework, hence, we can easily write efficient kernel space
data access monitoring applications. For example, the kernel's memory
management mechanisms can make advanced decisions using this.
Experimental data access aware optimization works that incurring high
access monitoring overhead could again be implemented on top of this.
Due to its simple and flexible interface, providing user space interface
would be also easy. Then, user space users who have some special
workloads can write personalized applications for better understanding and
optimizations of their workloads and systems.
===
Nevertheless, this commit is defining and implementing only basic access
check part without the overhead-accuracy handling core logic. The basic
access check is as below.
The output of DAMON says what memory regions are how frequently accessed
for a given duration. The resolution of the access frequency is
controlled by setting ``sampling interval`` and ``aggregation interval``.
In detail, DAMON checks access to each page per ``sampling interval`` and
aggregates the results. In other words, counts the number of the accesses
to each region. After each ``aggregation interval`` passes, DAMON calls
callback functions that previously registered by users so that users can
read the aggregated results and then clears the results. This can be
described in below simple pseudo-code::
init()
while monitoring_on:
for page in monitoring_target:
if accessed(page):
nr_accesses[page] += 1
if time() % aggregation_interval == 0:
for callback in user_registered_callbacks:
callback(monitoring_target, nr_accesses)
for page in monitoring_target:
nr_accesses[page] = 0
if time() % update_interval == 0:
update()
sleep(sampling interval)
The target regions constructed at the beginning of the monitoring and
updated after each ``regions_update_interval``, because the target regions
could be dynamically changed (e.g., mmap() or memory hotplug). The
monitoring overhead of this mechanism will arbitrarily increase as the
size of the target workload grows.
The basic monitoring primitives for actual access check and dynamic target
regions construction aren't in the core part of DAMON. Instead, it allows
users to implement their own primitives that are optimized for their use
case and configure DAMON to use those. In other words, users cannot use
current version of DAMON without some additional works.
Following commits will implement the core mechanisms for the
overhead-accuracy control and default primitives implementations.
