mm: memmap defer init doesn't work as expected

2020-12-29T23:36:49+00:00

VMware observed a performance regression during memmap init on their
platform, and bisected to commit 73a6e474cb376 ("mm: memmap_init:
iterate over memblock regions rather that check each PFN") causing it.

Before the commit:

  [0.033176] Normal zone: 1445888 pages used for memmap
  [0.033176] Normal zone: 89391104 pages, LIFO batch:63
  [0.035851] ACPI: PM-Timer IO Port: 0x448

With commit

  [0.026874] Normal zone: 1445888 pages used for memmap
  [0.026875] Normal zone: 89391104 pages, LIFO batch:63
  [2.028450] ACPI: PM-Timer IO Port: 0x448

The root cause is the current memmap defer init doesn't work as expected.

Before, memmap_init_zone() was used to do memmap init of one whole zone,
to initialize all low zones of one numa node, but defer memmap init of
the last zone in that numa node.  However, since commit 73a6e474cb376,
function memmap_init() is adapted to iterater over memblock regions
inside one zone, then call memmap_init_zone() to do memmap init for each
region.

E.g, on VMware's system, the memory layout is as below, there are two
memory regions in node 2.  The current code will mistakenly initialize the
whole 1st region [mem 0xab00000000-0xfcffffffff], then do memmap defer to
iniatialize only one memmory section on the 2nd region [mem
0x10000000000-0x1033fffffff].  In fact, we only expect to see that there's
only one memory section's memmap initialized.  That's why more time is
costed at the time.

[    0.008842] ACPI: SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x00000000-0x0009ffff]
[    0.008842] ACPI: SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x00100000-0xbfffffff]
[    0.008843] ACPI: SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 [mem 0x100000000-0x55ffffffff]
[    0.008844] ACPI: SRAT: Node 1 PXM 1 [mem 0x5600000000-0xaaffffffff]
[    0.008844] ACPI: SRAT: Node 2 PXM 2 [mem 0xab00000000-0xfcffffffff]
[    0.008845] ACPI: SRAT: Node 2 PXM 2 [mem 0x10000000000-0x1033fffffff]

Now, let's add a parameter 'zone_end_pfn' to memmap_init_zone() to pass
down the real zone end pfn so that defer_init() can use it to judge
whether defer need be taken in zone wide.

mm: add prototype for __add_to_page_cache_locked()

2020-12-29T23:36:49+00:00

Otherwise it causes a gcc warning:

  mm/filemap.c:830:14: warning: no previous prototype for `__add_to_page_cache_locked' [-Wmissing-prototypes]

A previous attempt to make this function static led to compilation
errors when CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF is enabled because
__add_to_page_cache_locked() is referred to by BPF code.

Adding a prototype will silence the warning.

kasan, mm: check kasan_enabled in annotations

Declare the kasan_enabled static key in include/linux/kasan.h and in
include/linux/mm.h and check it in all kasan annotations. This allows to
avoid any slowdown caused by function calls when kasan_enabled is

kernel/power: allow hibernation with page_poison sanity checking

2020-12-15T20:13:46+00:00

Page poisoning used to be incompatible with hibernation, as the state of
poisoned pages was lost after resume, thus enabling CONFIG_HIBERNATION
forces CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING_NO_SANITY.  For the same reason, the
poisoning with zeroes variant CONFIG_PAGE_POISONING_ZERO used to disable
hibernation.  The latter restriction was removed by commit 1ad1410f632d
("PM / Hibernate: allow hibernation with PAGE_POISONING_ZERO") and
similarly for init_on_free by commit 18451f9f9e58 ("PM: hibernate: fix
crashes with init_on_free=1") by making sure free pages are cleared after
resume.

We can use the same mechanism to instead poison free pages with
PAGE_POISON after resume.  This covers both zero and 0xAA patterns.  Thus
we can remove the Kconfig restriction that disables page poison sanity
checking when hibernation is enabled.

mm, page_poison: use static key more efficiently

2020-12-15T20:13:46+00:00

Commit 11c9c7edae06 ("mm/page_poison.c: replace bool variable with static
key") changed page_poisoning_enabled() to a static key check.  However,
the function is not inlined, so each check still involves a function call
with overhead not eliminated when page poisoning is disabled.

Analogically to how debug_pagealloc is handled, this patch converts
page_poisoning_enabled() back to boolean check, and introduces
page_poisoning_enabled_static() for fast paths.  Both functions are
inlined.

The function kernel_poison_pages() is also called unconditionally and does
the static key check inside.  Remove it from there and put it to callers.
Also split it to two functions kernel_poison_pages() and
kernel_unpoison_pages() instead of the confusing bool parameter.

Also optimize the check that enables page poisoning instead of
debug_pagealloc for architectures without proper debug_pagealloc support.
Move the check to init_mem_debugging_and_hardening() to enable a single
static key instead of having two static branches in
page_poisoning_enabled_static().
