mm: compaction: fix compiler warning when CONFIG_COMPACTION=n

2022-04-15T21:49:55+00:00

The below warning is reported when CONFIG_COMPACTION=n:

   mm/compaction.c:56:27: warning: 'HPAGE_FRAG_CHECK_INTERVAL_MSEC' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
      56 | static const unsigned int HPAGE_FRAG_CHECK_INTERVAL_MSEC = 500;
         |                           ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fix it by moving 'HPAGE_FRAG_CHECK_INTERVAL_MSEC' under
CONFIG_COMPACTION defconfig.

Also since this is just a 'static const int' type, use #define for it.

mm: compaction: cleanup the compaction trace events

2022-03-22T22:57:09+00:00

As Steven suggested [1], we should access the pointers from the trace
event to avoid dereferencing them to the tracepoint function when the
tracepoint is disabled.

mm: __isolate_lru_page_prepare() in isolate_migratepages_block()

2022-03-22T22:57:08+00:00

__isolate_lru_page_prepare() conflates two unrelated functions, with the
flags to one disjoint from the flags to the other; and hides some of the
important checks outside of isolate_migratepages_block(), where the
sequence is better to be visible.  It comes from the days of lumpy
reclaim, before compaction, when the combination made more sense.

Move what's needed by mm/compaction.c isolate_migratepages_block() inline
there, and what's needed by mm/vmscan.c isolate_lru_pages() inline there.

Shorten "isolate_mode" to "mode", so the sequence of conditions is easier
to read.  Declare a "mapping" variable, to save one call to page_mapping()
(but not another: calling again after page is locked is necessary).
Simplify isolate_lru_pages() with a "move_to" list pointer.

mm: compaction: fix the migration stats in trace_mm_compaction_migratepages()

2022-01-15T14:30:30+00:00

Now the migrate_pages() has changed to return the number of {normal
page, THP, hugetlb} instead, thus we should not use the return value to
calculate the number of pages migrated successfully.  Instead we can
just use the 'nr_succeeded' which indicates the number of normal pages
migrated successfully to calculate the non-migrated pages in
trace_mm_compaction_migratepages().

mm/vmscan: centralise timeout values for reclaim_throttle

2021-11-06T20:30:40+00:00

Neil Brown raised concerns about callers of reclaim_throttle specifying
a timeout value.  The original timeout values to congestion_wait() were
probably pulled out of thin air or copy&pasted from somewhere else.
This patch centralises the timeout values and selects a timeout based on
the reason for reclaim throttling.  These figures are also pulled out of
the same thin air but better values may be derived

Running a workload that is throttling for inappropriate periods and
tracing mm_vmscan_throttled can be used to pick a more appropriate
value.  Excessive throttling would pick a lower timeout where as
excessive CPU usage in reclaim context would select a larger timeout.
Ideally a large value would always be used and the wakeups would occur
before a timeout but that requires careful testing.

mm/vmscan: throttle reclaim and compaction when too may pages are isolated

2021-11-06T20:30:40+00:00

Page reclaim throttles on congestion if too many parallel reclaim
instances have isolated too many pages.  This makes no sense, excessive
parallelisation has nothing to do with writeback or congestion.

This patch creates an additional workqueue to sleep on when too many
pages are isolated.  The throttled tasks are woken when the number of
isolated pages is reduced or a timeout occurs.  There may be some false
positive wakeups for GFP_NOIO/GFP_NOFS callers but the tasks will
throttle again if necessary.
