net: memcontrol: defer call to mem_cgroup_sk_alloc()

2017-10-10T03:55:01+00:00

Instead of calling mem_cgroup_sk_alloc() from BH context,
it is better to call it from inet_csk_accept() in process context.

Not only this removes code in mem_cgroup_sk_alloc(), but it also
fixes a bug since listener might have been dismantled and css_get()
might cause a use-after-free.

mm/memcg: avoid page count check for zone device

2017-10-04T00:54:24+00:00

Fix for 4.14, zone device page always have an elevated refcount of one
and thus page count sanity check in uncharge_page() is inappropriate for
them.

         ----                    ----

                                 lock(&type->i_mutex_dir_key#3);
                                 lock(&mm->mmap_sem);
    lock(cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem);

   *** DEADLOCK ***

  2 locks held by a.out/4771:
   #0:  (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [] __do_page_fault+0x175/0x530
   #1:  (percpu_charge_mutex){+.+...}, at: [] try_charge+0x397/0x6e0

The problem is very similar to the one fixed by commit a459eeb7b852
("mm, page_alloc: do not depend on cpu hotplug locks inside the
allocator").  We are taking hotplug locks while we can be sitting on top
of basically arbitrary locks.  This just calls for problems.

We can get rid of {get,put}_online_cpus, fortunately.  We do not have to
be worried about races with memory hotplug because drain_local_stock,
which is called from both the WQ draining and the memory hotplug
contexts, is always operating on the local cpu stock with IRQs disabled.

The only thing to be careful about is that the target memcg doesn't
vanish while we are still in drain_all_stock so take a reference on it.

mem/memcg: cache rightmost node

2017-09-09T01:26:49+00:00

Such that we can optimize __mem_cgroup_largest_soft_limit_node().  The
only overhead is the extra footprint for the cached pointer, but this
should not be an issue for mem_cgroup_tree_per_node.

mm: memcontrol: use per-cpu stocks for socket memory uncharging

2017-09-09T01:26:47+00:00

We've noticed a quite noticeable performance overhead on some hosts with
significant network traffic when socket memory accounting is enabled.

Perf top shows that socket memory uncharging path is hot:
  2.13%  [kernel]                [k] page_counter_cancel
  1.14%  [kernel]                [k] __sk_mem_reduce_allocated
  1.14%  [kernel]                [k] _raw_spin_lock

  0.84%  [kernel]                [k] ixgbe_poll

  0.68%  [kernel]                [k] __fget
  0.68%  [kernel]                [k] tcp_delack_timer_handler
  0.67%  [kernel]                [k] __schedule

  0.54%  libc-2.20.so            [.] __memcpy_avx_unaligned

To address this issue, the existing per-cpu stock infrastructure can be
used.

refill_stock() can be called from mem_cgroup_uncharge_skmem() to move
charge to a per-cpu stock instead of calling atomic
page_counter_uncharge().

To prevent the uncontrolled growth of per-cpu stocks, refill_stock()
will explicitly drain the cached charge, if the cached value exceeds
CHARGE_BATCH.

This allows significantly optimize the load:
  1.21%  [kernel]                [k] _raw_spin_lock
  1.01%  [kernel]                [k] ixgbe_poll

mm/device-public-memory: device memory cache coherent with CPU

2017-09-09T01:26:46+00:00

Platform with advance system bus (like CAPI or CCIX) allow device memory
to be accessible from CPU in a cache coherent fashion.  Add a new type of
ZONE_DEVICE to represent such memory.  The use case are the same as for
the un-addressable device memory but without all the corners cases.

mm/memcontrol: support MEMORY_DEVICE_PRIVATE

2017-09-09T01:26:46+00:00

HMM pages (private or public device pages) are ZONE_DEVICE page and thus
need special handling when it comes to lru or refcount.  This patch make
sure that memcontrol properly handle those when it face them.  Those pages
are use like regular pages in a process address space either as anonymous
page or as file back page.  So from memcg point of view we want to handle
them like regular page for now at least.

mm/memcontrol: allow to uncharge page without using page->lru field

2017-09-09T01:26:46+00:00

HMM pages (private or public device pages) are ZONE_DEVICE page and
thus you can not use page->lru fields of those pages. This patch
re-arrange the uncharge to allow single page to be uncharge without
modifying the lru field of the struct page.

There is no change to memcontrol logic, it is the same as it was
before this patch.

mm: thp: check pmd migration entry in common path

2017-09-09T01:26:45+00:00

When THP migration is being used, memory management code needs to handle
pmd migration entries properly.  This patch uses !pmd_present() or
is_swap_pmd() (depending on whether pmd_none() needs separate code or
not) to check pmd migration entries at the places where a pmd entry is
present.

Since pmd-related code uses split_huge_page(), split_huge_pmd(),
pmd_trans_huge(), pmd_trans_unstable(), or
pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), this patch:

1. adds pmd migration entry split code in split_huge_pmd(),

2. takes care of pmd migration entries whenever pmd_trans_huge() is present,

3. makes pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() pmd migration entry aware.

Since split_huge_page() uses split_huge_pmd() and pmd_trans_unstable()
is equivalent to pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), we do not change
them.

Until this commit, a pmd entry should be:
1. pointing to a pte page,
2. is_swap_pmd(),
3. pmd_trans_huge(),
4. pmd_devmap(), or
5. pmd_none().

     cgroup2 support didn't make this pull request but most contentions
