Let's count the number of CMA pages per zone and print them in
/proc/zoneinfo.
Having access to the total number of CMA pages per zone is helpful for
debugging purposes to know where exactly the CMA pages ended up, and to
figure out how many pages of a zone might behave differently, even after
some of these pages might already have been allocated.
As one example, CMA pages part of a kernel zone cannot be used for
ordinary kernel allocations but instead behave more like ZONE_MOVABLE.
For now, we are only able to get the global nr+free cma pages from
/proc/meminfo and the free cma pages per zone from /proc/zoneinfo.
Example after this patch when booting a 6 GiB QEMU VM with
"hugetlb_cma=2G":
# cat /proc/zoneinfo | grep cma
cma 0
nr_free_cma 0
cma 0
nr_free_cma 0
cma 524288
nr_free_cma 493016
cma 0
cma 0
# cat /proc/meminfo | grep Cma
CmaTotal: 2097152 kB
CmaFree: 1972064 kB
Note: We print even without CONFIG_CMA, just like "nr_free_cma"; this way,
one can be sure when spotting "cma 0", that there are definetly no
CMA pages located in a zone.

Right now, if activation fails, we might already have exposed some pages
to the buddy for CMA use (although they will never get actually used by
CMA), and some pages won't be exposed to the buddy at all.
Let's check for "single zone" early and on error, don't expose any pages
for CMA use - instead, expose them to the buddy available for any use.
Simply call free_reserved_page() on every single page - easier than going
via free_reserved_area(), converting back and forth between pfns and virt
addresses.
In addition, make sure to fixup totalcma_pages properly.

Currently cma areas without a fixed base are allocated close to the end of
the node. This placement is sub-optimal because of compaction: it brings
pages into the cma area. In particular, it can bring in hot executable
pages, even if there is a plenty of free memory on the machine. This
results in cma allocation failures.
Instead let's place cma areas close to the beginning of a node. In this
case the compaction will help to free cma areas, resulting in better cma
allocation success rates.
If there is enough memory let's try to allocate bottom-up starting with
4GB to exclude any possible interference with DMA32. On smaller machines
or in a case of a failure, stick with the old behavior.
16GB vm, 2GB cma area:

Hugh pointed out that the gma500 driver uses shmem pages, but needs to
limit them to the DMA32 zone. Ensure the allocations resulting from the
gfp_mask returned by limit_gfp_mask use the zone flags that were
originally passed to shmem_getpage_gfp.

Currently if thp enabled=[madvise], mounting a tmpfs filesystem with
huge=always and mmapping files from that tmpfs does not result in
khugepaged collapsing those mappings, despite the mount flag indicating
that it should.
Fix that by breaking up the blocks of tests in hugepage_vma_check a little
bit, and testing things in the correct order.

allocates tmpfs memory, but will happily reclaim some of its pool if no

Patch series "mm,thp,shm: limit shmem THP alloc gfp_mask", v6.
The allocation flags of anonymous transparent huge pages can be controlled
through the files in /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag, which can
help the system from getting bogged down in the page reclaim and
compaction code when many THPs are getting allocated simultaneously.
However, the gfp_mask for shmem THP allocations were not limited by those
configuration settings, and some workloads ended up with all CPUs stuck on
the LRU lock in the page reclaim code, trying to allocate dozens of THPs
simultaneously.
This patch applies the same configurated limitation of THPs to shmem
hugepage allocations, to prevent that from happening.
This way a THP defrag setting of "never" or "defer+madvise" will result in
quick allocation failures without direct reclaim when no 2MB free pages
are available.
With this patch applied, THP allocations for tmpfs will be a little more
aggressive than today for files mmapped with MADV_HUGEPAGE, and a little
less aggressive for files that are not mmapped or mapped without that
flag.
This patch (of 4):
The allocation flags of anonymous transparent huge pages can be controlled

simultaneously.
This patch applies the same configurated limitation of THPs to shmem
hugepage allocations, to prevent that from happening.
Controlling the gfp_mask of THP allocations through the knobs in sysfs
allows users to determine the balance between how aggressively the system
tries to allocate THPs at fault time, and how much the application may end
up stalling attempting those allocations.
This way a THP defrag setting of "never" or "defer+madvise" will result in
quick allocation failures without direct reclaim when no 2MB free pages
are available.
With this patch applied, THP allocations for tmpfs will be a little more
aggressive than today for files mmapped with MADV_HUGEPAGE, and a little
less aggressive for files that are not mmapped or mapped without that

We have three functions (shmem_undo_range(), truncate_inode_pages_range()
and invalidate_mapping_pages()) which want exactly this function, so add
it to filemap.c. Before this patch, shmem_undo_range() would split any
compound page which overlaps either end of the range being punched in both
the first and second loops through the address space. After this patch,
that functionality is left for the second loop, which is arguably more
appropriate since the first loop is supposed to run through all the pages
quickly, and splitting a page can sleep.

The comment shows that the reason for using find_get_entries() is now
stale; find_get_pages() will not return 0 if it hits a consecutive run of
swap entries, and I don't believe it has since 2011. pagevec_lookup() is
a simpler function to use than find_get_pages(), so use it instead.

Patch series "Overhaul multi-page lookups for THP", v4.
This THP prep patchset changes several page cache iteration APIs to only
return head pages.
- It's only possible to tag head pages in the page cache, so only
return head pages, not all their subpages.
- Factor a lot of common code out of the various batch lookup routines
- Add mapping_seek_hole_data()
- Unify find_get_entries() and pagevec_lookup_entries()
- Make find_get_entries only return head pages, like find_get_entry().
These are only loosely connected, but they seem to make sense together as
a series.
This patch (of 14):
Pagecache tags are used for dirty page writeback. Since dirtiness is
tracked on a per-THP basis, we only want to return the head page rather
than each subpage of a tagged page. All the filesystems which use huge
pages today are in-memory, so there are no tagged huge pages today.

Matthew Wilcox noticed that hugetlbfs_set_page_dirty always returns 0.
Instead, it should return 1 or 0 depending on the previous state of the
dirty bit. In addition, the call to compound_head is redundant as it is
also performed in calling routine set_page_dirty.
Replace the hugetlbfs specific routine hugetlbfs_set_page_dirty with
__set_page_dirty_no_writeback as it addresses both of these issues.

While reviewing a bug in hugetlb_reserve_pages, it was noticed that all
callers ignore the return value. Any failure is considered an ENOMEM
error by the callers.
Change the function to be of type bool. The function will return true if
the reservation was successful, false otherwise. Callers currently assume
a zero return code indicates success. Change the callers to look for true
to indicate success. No functional change, only code cleanup.

Now, NUMA balancing can only optimize the page placement among the NUMA
nodes if the default memory policy is used. Because the memory policy
specified explicitly should take precedence. But this seems too strict in
some situations. For example, on a system with 4 NUMA nodes, if the
memory of an application is bound to the node 0 and 1, NUMA balancing can
potentially migrate the pages between the node 0 and 1 to reduce
cross-node accessing without breaking the explicit memory binding policy.
So in this patch, we add MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING mode flag to
set_mempolicy() when mode is MPOL_BIND. With the flag specified, NUMA
balancing will be enabled within the thread to optimize the page placement
within the constrains of the specified memory binding policy. With the
newly added flag, the NUMA balancing control mechanism becomes,
- sysctl knob numa_balancing can enable/disable the NUMA balancing
globally.
- even if sysctl numa_balancing is enabled, the NUMA balancing will be
disabled for the memory areas or applications with the explicit
memory policy by default.
- MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING can be used to enable the NUMA balancing for
the applications when specifying the explicit memory policy
(MPOL_BIND).
Various page placement optimization based on the NUMA balancing can be
done with these flags. As the first step, in this patch, if the memory of
the application is bound to multiple nodes (MPOL_BIND), and in the hint
page fault handler the accessing node are in the policy nodemask, the page
will be tried to be migrated to the accessing node to reduce the
cross-node accessing.
If the newly added MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING flag is specified by an
application on an old kernel version without its support, set_mempolicy()
will return -1 and errno will be set to EINVAL. The application can use
this behavior to run on both old and new kernel versions.
And if the MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING flag is specified for the mode other than
MPOL_BIND, set_mempolicy() will return -1 and errno will be set to EINVAL
as before. Because we don't support optimization based on the NUMA
balancing for these modes.
In the previous version of the patch, we tried to reuse MPOL_MF_LAZY for
mbind(). But that flag is tied to MPOL_MF_MOVE.*, so it seems not a good
API/ABI for the purpose of the patch.
And because it's not clear whether it's necessary to enable NUMA balancing
for a specific memory area inside an application, so we only add the flag
at the thread level (set_mempolicy()) instead of the memory area level
(mbind()). We can do that when it become necessary.
To test the patch, we run a test case as follows on a 4-node machine with
192 GB memory (48 GB per node).
1. Change pmbench memory accessing benchmark to call set_mempolicy()
to bind its memory to node 1 and 3 and enable NUMA balancing. Some
related code snippets are as follows,
#include <numaif.h>
#include <numa.h>
struct bitmask *bmp;
int ret;
bmp = numa_parse_nodestring("1,3");
ret = set_mempolicy(MPOL_BIND | MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING,
bmp->maskp, bmp->size + 1);
/* If MPOL_F_NUMA_BALANCING isn't supported, fall back to MPOL_BIND */
if (ret < 0 && errno == EINVAL)
ret = set_mempolicy(MPOL_BIND, bmp->maskp, bmp->size + 1);
if (ret < 0) {
perror("Failed to call set_mempolicy");
exit(-1);
}
2. Run a memory eater on node 3 to use 40 GB memory before running pmbench.
3. Run pmbench with 64 processes, the working-set size of each process
is 640 MB, so the total working-set size is 64 * 640 MB = 40 GB. The
CPU and the memory (as in step 1.) of all pmbench processes is bound
to node 1 and 3. So, after CPU usage is balanced, some pmbench
processes run on the CPUs of the node 3 will access the memory of
the node 1.
4. After the pmbench processes run for 100 seconds, kill the memory
eater. Now it's possible for some pmbench processes to migrate
their pages from node 1 to node 3 to reduce cross-node accessing.
Test results show that, with the patch, the pages can be migrated from
node 1 to node 3 after killing the memory eater, and the pmbench score
can increase about 17.5%.

Compaction always operates on pages from a single given zone when
isolating both pages to migrate and freepages. Pageblock boundaries are
intersected with zone boundaries to be safe in case zone starts or ends in
the middle of pageblock. The use of pageblock_pfn_to_page() protects
against non-contiguous pageblocks.
The functions fast_isolate_freepages() and fast_isolate_around() don't
currently protect the fast freepage isolation thoroughly enough against
these corner cases, and can result in freepage isolation operate outside
of zone boundaries:
- in fast_isolate_freepages() if we get a pfn from the first pageblock
of a zone that starts in the middle of that pageblock, 'highest' can
be a pfn outside of the zone.
If we fail to isolate anything in this function, we may then call
fast_isolate_around() on a pfn outside of the zone and there
effectively do a set_pageblock_skip(page_to_pfn(highest)) which may
currently hit a VM_BUG_ON() in some configurations
- fast_isolate_around() checks only the zone end boundary and not
beginning, nor that the pageblock is contiguous (with
pageblock_pfn_to_page()) so it's possible that we end up calling
isolate_freepages_block() on a range of pfn's from two different
zones and end up e.g. isolating freepages under the wrong zone's
lock.
This patch should fix the above issues.

In the fast_find_migrateblock(), it iterates ocer the freelist to find the
proper pageblock. But there are some misbehaviors.
First, if the page we found is equal to cc->migrate_pfn, it is considered
that we didn't find a suitable pageblock. Secondly, if the loop was
terminated because order is less than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER, it could be
considered that we found a suitable one. Thirdly, if the skip bit is set
on the page block and we goto continue, it doesn't check nr_scanned.
Fourthly, if the page block's skip bit is set, it checks that page block
is the last of list, which is unnecessary.

should_proactive_compact_node() returns true when sum of the weighted
fragmentation score of all the zones in the node is greater than the
wmark_high of compaction, which then triggers the proactive compaction
that operates on the individual zones of the node. But proactive
compaction runs on the zone only when its weighted fragmentation score
is greater than wmark_low(=wmark_high - 10).
This means that the sum of the weighted fragmentation scores of all the
zones can exceed the wmark_high but individual weighted fragmentation zone
scores can still be less than wmark_low which makes the unnecessary
trigger of the proactive compaction only to return doing nothing.
Issue with the return of proactive compaction with out even trying is its
deferral. It is simply deferred for 1 << COMPACT_MAX_DEFER_SHIFT if the
scores across the proactive compaction is same, thinking that compaction
didn't make any progress but in reality it didn't even try. With the
delay between successive retries for proactive compaction is 500msec, it
can result into the deferral for ~30sec with out even trying the proactive
compaction.
Test scenario is that: compaction_proactiveness=50 thus the wmark_low = 50
and wmark_high = 60. System have 2 zones(Normal and Movable) with sizes
5GB and 6GB respectively. After opening some apps on the android, the
weighted fragmentation scores of these zones are 47 and 49 respectively.
Since the sum of these fragmentation scores are above the wmark_high which
triggers the proactive compaction and there since the individual zones
weighted fragmentation scores are below wmark_low, it returns without
trying the proactive compaction. As a result the weighted fragmentation
scores of the zones are still 47 and 49 which makes the existing logic to
defer the compaction thinking that noprogress is made across the
compaction.
Fix this by checking just zone fragmentation score, not the weighted, in
__compact_finished() and use the zones weighted fragmentation score in
fragmentation_score_node(). In the test case above, If the weighted
average of is above wmark_high, then individual score (not adjusted) of
atleast one zone has to be above wmark_high. Thus it avoids the
unnecessary trigger and deferrals of the proactive compaction.
